#his tail is based on his wings btw

[asheronangel]

[day 8] tried out something. i did start this on time i just procrastinated on colouring (and i originally wanted to add silver but he just wasn't cooperating)

both coloured and not because i like certain aspects of both

design notes

link to masterpost || some quick justifcations/explanations below cut!!:

Birds of paradise <333 Them being of the same bird family is important to me... (honorary mention to the snowy owl for Kristoph) (also honorable mention to the paradise crow) (but i like them having matching ribbons (and the two birds i went with are more closely related))

I originally tried giving Klav the whole fluffy back of yellow/white feathers, but (a) he looked SO over complicated (especially compared to everyone else) and (b) I realized that no other character has back feathers, anyways. so it would make sense he does not either.

The ribbon-tails are similar to Apollo and Trucy's hearts: they both inherit this feature from one of their parents. (One parent is a stephanie's astrapia, one is a lesser bird-of-paradise). (Also of note: the lesser bird-of-paradise also has two long wire plumes, if you look closely)

Tails: (Klav's is basically a ribbon-tailed astrapia's tail btw.) Because the tail is such a notable feature of these species, I'm including it, though they also come from the base of the wing (though I'll probably just draw them as essentially tails in the future), and are much shorter than they would be, were they proportional.

i got very lazy on the individual introduction sheets they're so bad 😭😭 specifically klavier pls just imagine he and his wings look better there 🙏🙏🙏 LOL i hope the other drawings make up for it !! >:3

FINALLY MY CAT!!!! it’s been a while,,, this is him everyday after taking his pills cuz he knows it’s milk time now (image from my dad) (also flat colors and zoom bc me likey this image)

[moonkanex]

Just some practice things lol I like the perspective on this 

Btw Grian lore down below cause I didn’t put it in his design post lol there’s a lot so sorry in advance ^^

Base design:

Base design is based off a mockingbird, his exact species category is a Mocking harpy, with the ability to shapeshift and mimic other birds

(his feathers will never lose the base inspo, even if he is mimicking other bird species, so if he was mimicking a parrot the yellow would replace the white and reg the light brown and blue the darker brown etc the yellow will have a hint of white markings but ye!)

season 7, would be a Parrot mimic, since he lived in the jungle for the most part and he did the pesky bird bit

season 8 would be a snowy owl/ender dragon mimic, cause he did a harry potter inspired build, and harry’s main pet is a snow owl and had a ender dragon baby(egg)

the life games are just dependent on his surroundings! (ex, Last life would be burrowing dessert owl, cause they lived in a dessert that session!)

He is constantly feathered,  mainly seen on his cheeks and shoulders. He will keep this feature throughout the entirety of his mimics as well as his signature ‘waffle’

he can hide his wings, tail and bird like legs to appear more human but he will never lose the feathers on his back/shoulders

Clothing:

hes clothing also serves a purpose i didn't just make his clothes revealing on purpose lol

His backless sweater, for his wings to move without hindering the movements at all, would show his upper body so I added an additional undershirt just so he isn’t practically shirtless. Both tie in the back at the back above his tail but only the under shirt ties in the back on his neck

his pants! They have long slits in the sides so he can access his pouches (his inventory basically) on the side of his legs and knives. Bird legs are difficult to make pants for so the baggy :D he also had shorts so he wouldn’t flash anyone lol it has a clip in the back that goes over his tail so he wouldn’t have to pull his tail through his pants

Watcher Nature: (Still in progress)

Rouge watcher

When he has high negative emotions his eyes will get a purple tint and will become more intense the more intense emotions he gets

While in his watcher form, he can have any amount of wings, like a seraph, and his wings get glowing eyes like the one floating above his head. He is rarely in this form but he is often overwhelmed in this form and chooses to hide from the hermits in a dark space to calm down.

(hermitcrafts security mechanics for watchers do not work on watchers already in the world. Thus would not go off if Grian is in this form, X would later add him to the exceptions list)

Shifting nature:

Grian was originally human, when evo started he was just a guy hanging out with his friends, but when he was taken by the watchers they gave him a ‘gift’, that being part harpy. The watchers fused Grian’s code with a birds, and eventually he grew traits that made him a harpy. Shapeshifting was just a oopsie trait the watchers didn't expect grian to develop

[blacclotus]

Wings AU

(they're just messing around nothing special)

In case u can't read:

Bro's based of the red-backed shrike

Lost his right arm & right wing

In this economy, making prosthetics is expensive, so they can only do right arm & remove the wing

Based of this white-tailed eagle

(edited picture of gepard w wings that are from shoulders to feet) This big jfc

Gonna sacrifice the emblem for backless lmao

THE CLOAK STAYS ON

So Luka does bleed to enemies right? It's basically a debuff but for shrikes, they impale their prey on thorns, which is like a debuff on its own

also it's smol and cute lmao (just like him)

For Gepard, I'm having a hard time finding his species bc idk what bird does defense while living in russia so i have 2 options: golden eagle and white-tailed eagle

even if they're territorial, the former is much aggressive to battle while the latter is chill

I mean, Gepard is chill most of the time but he also takes his job very seriously so I'm definitely going with the latter

btw this took me 10 HOURS TO MAKE IM SO FUCKING TIRED AHAHHAAHHAHAHHAHAHAH

(twt crosspost as always)

[sanctus-ingenium]

i answer your asks vol... 6?

This one made me actually consider how they balance the humours beyond just a simply "they scour it out". Because sometimes a holy beast gets 'sick' and it's not necessarily related to any sort of tissue growth, it's more often a mechanical fault and because the beast is considered to be alive, he is then therefore 'sick'. So how do we deal with this? An enginesmith will make the necessary repairs, but sometimes the sickness is related to environmental conditions. The four humours are arranged on a scale like this:

A mechanical fault associated with being too hot and dry could be something like a lack of lubrication on moving machine parts. So this would be considered the reason for a production of yellow bile (excess of yellow bile, btw, was what Pantera was diagnosed with on his last outing). Whether or not the bile is literal or more symbolic depends on the case. Anyway this was the reason Pantera is associated with fire (originally, when I was designing them all) and Leun, diametrically opposite, is associated with phlegm, water, acid, etc.

But anyway, the way to fix these imbalances in hot/cold/wet/dry is to simply reduce whichever one is excessive. In practice, keeping holy beasts maintained even when they're not out on a crusade is a full time job for an army of workers, where the atmospheric conditions need to be as neutral as possible. Too wet and you've got rust, too dry and the metal fatigues, to hot and it might warp and break, too cold and the joints won't fit properly, etc etc. Although the enginesmiths view this through a lens of The Four Humours, it's also just good practice to try to keep things balanced.

Btw while they do cure an excess of blood by bleeding the holy beast, they don't make leeches big enough :'(

There are illustrated representations of dragons that are pretty traditionally dragony (typically a winged serpent with many tails representing the stinging tendrils). These are added to drawings and art as a catch-all symbol for a conscious and targeted Evil. The laity, which is very devout, is unlikely to associate dragons with resistance - dragons cause a lot of damage too, and those stinging barbs will kill you just from the trauma of the impalement before the venom even has a chance to (unless you just get grazed, in which case.. the venom will paralyse you. then kill you)

So active rebellions/civil wars/wars of succession have occurred many times. The subjugated Midaean nation/territory (depending on who you ask) rallies around their beloved Saint Lycaon, a wolf. Flags and signs depicting a wolf devouring a crocodile/a lion/whatever holy beast currently tops the hierarchy of the church would be more likely. Rebellion itself is rarely black and white and as neat as picking a symbol the church hates. It is more likely people would pick a symbol that they love. Outside of Midea, the Mezian empire might not be at its peak but it also has not given its own citizens and laity a reason to take up arms against it.

at the start of the story, at least

awesome questions thank you @curious-sootball !

So the nerve cords inside the vertebrae are artificial, but they still perform the same physiological function as a real spinal column. They interface with a knight's dialogue. This produces an incredible amount of heat - this is why the spines are often exposed, even though that might be a point of vulnerability. The spinous processes in particular are very effective heat sinks.

But the tail? In most cases we don't need the tail, really. The spinal column ends at the base of the pelvis. The tail is cropped for most beasts on purpose - we don't need this thing dangling around and becoming entangled, and it has no machinery around it to act as replacement muscles so it couldn't move even if they wanted it to. Krokodilos's tail is the exception and it's just extremely heavy for not much pay off. That's a lot of additional engines we gotta maintain.

So the tail tends to be abandoned. The bones are kept of course but not mounted on the chassis where they're not needed. With no nerve cord running through them they don't run hot either so they won't disperse heat all that well.

Now for replacing bones... they don't. The bones that exist in the chassis are the bare minimum needed to perform the required functions - basic movement. They don't have ribs, they often don't have phalanges. A skull is there to complete the nerve cord - but all you need of that skull is the occipital bone. Nothing more.

If they break a leg, it might be repaired using screw and plate fixation. The bone may deign to knit together (enginesmiths swear that they don't allow tissue growth ever.. but sometimes you need some periosteum. Don't tell the bishops). But if it gets crushed? That's the holy beast done, scrap heap time. The majority of all holy beasts that have ever existed have already broken down and been decommissioned at the start of this story - we only have seven left (eight if you count krokodilos). Krokodilos is an unusual case because he is not dead, so they can't just hold a state funeral and add his heart engine block to the big hall of old hearts in the cathedral. He's sleeping.

But he's the exception. Take Saint Guinefort - dead as a doornail. He had a full funeral, his heart was put in the hall and his body was [redacted] like they do with all dead holy beasts. And then he was [redacted] and now our pal "Sir Victory" with the metal arm uses him as Nosewyse. Circle of life.

I think sidecar motorcycle is a pretty apt way of looking at him lmao. You don't wanna know how many people he's cooked.

Hey there! So I know I've mentioned they are similar to pterosaurs but they are not related to them at all. In fact they are cetaceans :) Later art I did of them plays up the mammal traits a bit more. Check out these nipples

However it is a fact that they are not closely related to modern cetaceans - as in, they did not evolve from modern whales and dolphins, but belong to a side branch that diverged relatively early, around the same time dragons were leaving the water for the skies. That art is quite old too, from before I kind of nailed it all down, so if I drew them now I would remove the more derived traits (i.e the single blowhole, the tail flukes, etc) and tidy it up a little. They diverged from the lineage that would become modern whales before the pelvic limbs were lost. I originally depict them having the crowbar-like claws on their feet to lever skin parasites off the dragon, but i think they are more likely to not use their feet much at all, and are more likely to use their single huge beak-like tooth to do the job instead. They cannot walk on flat surfaces.

-

Only insects and, specifically, winged insects :) I know it would be really cool to have various other giant arthropods but milennia ago, when they crossed into Thera for the first time, insects were the only fliers. And there is no other way to get over the mountain range quickly enough for it not to kill you. The mountain range in which the endless city sits is completely and 100% devoid of life. A journey on foot for a tiny bug would be next to impossible - they are more likely to starve or simply turn around and go back to where the food is.

The winged insects, otoh, can cross the range in a day or less, if the breeze is flowing right. And they would find plants already there in Thera - also solely wind-dispersed species from the previous time the mountains arrived and linked the world with Earth. The insects didn't really come by choice, sometimes the wind just blows the wrong way, but they definitely got lucky.

There are wingless insects in Thera today but only because they lost that trait over time (like ants or larviform female beetles). They have managed to colonise every reasonable habitat, including the sea (though the sea is not very salty) and have developed into a lot of very strange forms which might be unrecognisable to us. But a lot of them just got bigger and smarter.

This time round, in the period of time the story is set (early 1900s on earth), the mountains appeared and new animals crossed over who were not insects. Birds have become invasive in Thera, happily taking advantage of the smaller insect species who are completely unprepared for this new threat. There are also some wind-dispersed spiders hanging out now.

EDIT: oh i forgor the parasites on the flying insects that first colonised thera... yes they would have mites and horsehair worms and things of that nature

hi !!!!! can i request a transfem autistic tavros with phantom limb pain and a catgender autistic nepeta with burn scars? (they're <3 btw)

[id: a cartoon of tavros and nepeta laying next to each other in "white space", though the background shows a light pink heart pattern with a big red heart in the center. tavros is a thin transfem troll with lightish skin, laying on her side with faer head tilted to accommodate her horns. she has a mullet and wears a grey denim vest with a sign patch and a trans patch, a black slip dress, and red knee high converse. zig zag lines come out of faer back representing phantom limb pain from wings. nepeta curls up across from her, leaning nya's head on paw's arms. nya has short black hair with a blue and green raccoon tails, a blue cat beanie, footpaws, fingerless gloves and tail, a green trench coat, and dark grey pants. paw has burn scars along the right side of nya's face and paws left hand. they're chatting-- nepeta has a speech bubble with a question mark, and tavros responds with red wings. tavros blushes and nepeta looks at her intently. end id.]

BASED ANON

[mouchiiarts]

So. Ideas for the "in s6 the Mystreet characters discover the relics and use them to defeat Michael" au. Which will be dubbed the "Relics AU". Admittedly this au is based less around canon and more around my own rewrite. So some events will be played out slightly different.

Firstly, Zane is the one who found the relics. I like to think that maybe in s5 we would've seen or heard little hints about Esmund's relic calling to Zane. I like this idea that the relics can call upon new users (almost like they were made from sentient people's souls what who said that). Anyways, Zane keeps hearing a weird whispering voice/having weird dreams about opening ancient doors, having dreams with a lion (the symbol of Esmund/the Ro'meave family), etc.

It eventually culminates in the relic literally putting him into a mana trance and lulling him towards the relics location deep under Starlight. He comes across the door, touches it, and boom, door unlocked, relics sent out into the world.

Zane is of course immediately knocked out by Esmund's relic while the others go find the other users. (Garroth is there to bring Zane back to the house before they get in trouble with Starlight security).

For this au, Aphmau gets Irene's relic, Zane gets Esmund's (it was drawn by his magic and sense of ambition), Lucinda gets Menphia's relic, Travis gets Enki's, I'm thinking Ein could actually get Kulzak's relic?, and Aaron gets Shad's. (Ein would've been raised as Aphmau's brother for this au btw! They know they're brother/sister and were raised by Sylvanna)

Keep in mind, Zane and Lucinda were the only characters who previously had magic before the relics attached themselves to the cast. So that's fun.

And in s6, when they get these relics, they are able to use them to fight the Demon Warlock (who's lost his mind after being trapped in another dimension for centuries. Dude's gone a little crazy.)

I'm thinking the relics could also change the character's appearances? Like crow feathers/claws for Zane (mainly it's mana sickness while he adjusts to the relic), angel wings for Aphmau, larger horns/tail spines for Travis, fluffier fur/wolf traits and claws for Aaron, etc.

HAIIIII my new reference sheet 4 any1 who wants 2 draw meee :333

i have way more outfits than just these 2 but i dont have the energy 2 draw that much lololol

the raccoon tail patterns that go infront of my chest are fake hair extensions btw :)) i have a lotta different ones

ANYWAYYYYYY the rest of mah info under the cut :33 !!!!!!!

Full name: Bugthing (you don’t get to know my last name 😁)

Aliases: Bug, Creature — Buggie (FRIENDS/FAMILY ONLY)

Species: Concept Dragon (Fire, Type 3) / Angel (Type 4) hybrid

Planet of Origination: The Concept Universe / ‘The Void’

Age: I’m not telling you that. (OOC: usually it depends on which universe i throw him it but i typically characterise him as my age. which makes him a minor.)

Height: 8’9”

Gender: Biologically female; identifies as transmasculine & xenogender

Pronouns: He/Him/His, Xey/Xem/Xeirs/ It/Its/Itself, They/Them/Theirs — Blood/Bleed/Bloodself, Gore/Gory/Goreself (FRIENDS/FAMILY ONLY)

Sexuality: Solian, fictosexual, fictoromantic (i use the term aroace in conversations tho, its easier :3)

S/O: None. Technically. Unless you count my F/Os (that being Galacta Knight, Holly/THK, Moonjumper, and Shamura)

Family: Parents, brother, a number of cousins (and technically that one fankid i made for me n holly named Moggie but. They’re not canon.)

I’m an artist and fanfic author, and Nebbie’s assistant as a newly ascended Creator entity!!!!

Buddies with uhhhh God :))) (or Jesus ig but her name is Yk here. I call her Nebulis/Nebs/Nebbie tho. Bc we’re friends :3) (he uses all prns btw)

Bc of my fun powers and rights as Nebbie’s assistant creator I get to travel to whatever universes I feel like. Both to make sure everything’s going well and nobody’s broken the space time continuum and also to hang with my favs.

I like to call myself a Nice Boy(TM) but thats only really to my friends/family (not including my brother because I fucking hate him). I can get REALLY mean when I’m upset/if i don’t like you. But yeah I’m usually pretty ok!! Not the best person out there but at least I’m not a bigot lol. SPEAKING OF BIGOTS a lot of my very outward “”””cringe”””” behaviour is from me just being comfy in my own skin and pissing ableists off On Purpose bc I find it funny (it is).

I’ve lived in the Concept Universe/Void my whole life, but I tend to wander off to various universes both for My Duty(TM) and also I Like The Characters. I was first given the opportunity to leave the Void when I was abt 8 I think? My good buddy/auntcle figure Xephyr asked me and my brother if we wanted to check out what ppl were doing down there (with Nebs’ and our parents’ permission ofc), and we agreed. I’ve never been normal since (that’s a good thing though).

I don’t USUALLY do fighting stuff (unless I’m in like a COTL variation universe or something) but when I do I usually just use fire. I might be a pyromaniac. Which is concerning because I have fire magic and can easily commit arson. Yeag :)

[genopaint]

Slightly less late but still late is week 49! LET'S GO!!!

As always you can follow me on twitter where they’re posted daily

And read more info on each of them below the cut

Daily Dragon #343 - Silver Comet

The Lord of Dragons. A serious, no-nonsense dragon with an unyielding sense of duty in his role to protect all dragons no matter what. He will work with other species to protect his own, but wont hesitate to destroy ANYTHING that harms his people

Another dragon redraw, this time from 2018! I've always been pretty fond of his design, and yet I never really came back to draw him again! I think I've made improvements, but even looking back on the odd choices of the old design, I think it's a very strong design for me in 2018

Daily Dragon #344 - Rainforest Dragon

These slippery dragons love humid conditions and thrive because of the toxic food that grows there. Depending on what they eat, their skin might secrete poison with different properties such as burning or paralyzing!

I'm actually kind of surprised I haven't done a dragon in this style yet for the challenge, but this is a crayon style I used to do a LOT in Clip Studio Paint! I think it looks very cute, and I actually understand CSP more now than I did before. I should use this style more.

Daily Dragon #345 - Bogeyman Dragon

A bogeyman who was born with draconic features such as wings and a prominent tail. However, instead of traditionally elemental breath, this Bogeyman can summon and spit out large orbs made of a sticky substance that stops foes in their tracks!

this was originally a different dragon i decided and didn't like and almost scrapped but figured i could repurpose into a bogeyman :)

bogeymen are my own original species btw if you dont know, i still need to make that ref sheet / style guide for them

Daily Dragon #346 - Bahamuknight

And of course, this funny circle dragon knight guy is the dragon for the day. And I'm finally caught up again! I'm gonna try to keep on top of this for the rest of the challenge since we're so close to the end :)

Also for some more insight, originally I wanted him to have a sword similar to Sol Badguy's, but thought having ANOTHER metaknight with a sword was a bit too easy. Then I tried claws today, but didn't like how they looked on his short arms.

Ultimately I settled on a hook because, hey, Bahamut used to be a fish right? Maybe it'd be cute if the Kirby version of him was also a giant fish or something. Idk

Daily Dragon #347 - Drupesaurus

Also known as Fruit Dragons. These are kind and docile creatures that naturally grow fruits all over their body! The quality and taste of the fruits increases based on how well they're kept and treated! They're very popular in kitchens.

This is a redraw of a dragon from 2019! That year I did a big dragon a month challenge! How far we've come lol.

I actually still think this is one of my strongest dragon designs ever. And this original art might still be better than the new one in some ways

The original was done in MS Paint, if you can believe it! The new one is done in fire alpaca cause it's easier and I'm kind of pressed for time. But I hope you all like the new one regardless :)

Also also, this dragon is 1 of 2 redraw dragons I really wanted to get done in this challenge. The second one, if you can believe it, is somehow more complicated and may be the most complex dragon I've ever made. Oh god...

Daily Dragon #348 - Gaia, the Dragon God

A being incredibly in tune with the planet, feeling all its pain and providing life and protection to it. However, Gaia is an incredibly stubborn and easily angered creature. And will destroy civilizations it deems a threat to earth.

yet ANOTHER redraw dragon (I've got a lot of these for the end of this challenge lol) This is another one from 2019! I think it's a very interesting and unique design even still, with the thick geckolike tail, the bird wings, and the weird throat crystal? But damn its complex lol

Also UGH feathers are so hard to draw, I may never get good at them

Daily Dragon #349 - Wyvern Trout

These large fishes are born with draconic blood. And as such have thick scales, a hardy helmet with horns, flame breath, and fins that double as wings to fly in the air! They're famous for their taste, their flame sack being a particular delicacy

[imp-with-a-limp]

🐺🐈🐉🐎🏹🌌✨

I don't regret sending all these at all btw you did this ☝🏼 ( ◕◡◕)っ ♡

oh nooo 😌 (make me write game) It's only three sentences for each I swear!

🐺 Werewolf Hunters

Eddie wanted to bite the hunters, wanted to make them stop. Tommy came back bruised and withdrawn, Buck came back limping—barely stepping on his left hindleg. And Eddie was stuck in the kennel, utterly useless, not able—and not daring—to do anything but growl and claw at the bars.

🐈 Werecat AU

“Before we start courting,” Buck said, still dazed by the kiss, “you should know that Eddie and I were nearly courting each other. But that’s long over so you don’t have to—” “I know, Eddie told me. But I wouldn’t be so sure it’s over,” Tommy said with a smile and then kissed him again.

🐉 Would you still love me if I was a wyrm?

“I’m sorry Eddie but you have to wear something that shows you are LAFD,” Bobby said when Eddie turned to him for help. But help was not coming and so Eddie could only hiss at the vest-like thing Buck was holding up. It would go around his neck like a collar and then along his back and belly with wide holes for his wings to meet up again at his tail. And of course it said LAFD in as big letters as it could fit, had reflective stripes and a high-vis yellow base colour that would horribly clash with Eddie’s copper scales.

🐎 Out in the Wild

Next to it in the shadows sat a young child; a boy, unless Buck was mistaken. He looked at them with wide eyes but he wasn’t crying and he didn’t try to run away. Then the horse leaned down, nudging something on the ground with its nose, and Buck finally saw the man on the ground.

🏹 Hunger Games AU

“Hey Buck,” Edmundo said with a weak voice. “Thank you.” “Of course, Eddie,” Evan said in what was probably meant to be a soothing voice but the strong tremble betrayed the underlying fear. “I will always come for you.” Not always, Tommy wanted to say. One of them would have to die so the other could win and at the moment the proverbial money was on Edmundo Diaz not making it.

🌌 Space AU 2

It’d be hard not to see her: the woman with stars in her eyes—possibly literally?—and her head wreathed in nebulæ. But nobody else looked at her, nobody but Chim. “I see you’ve met my neighbour,” he said with a smug grin.

✨ Space AU 1

Before he can think about it, Eddie grabs Tommy’s face and pulls it down a bit to kiss him. “Give this to Buck, will you?” he asks, blushing furiously. It’s because he thinks of Buck, he tells himself.

[floriianthefool]

I hope you don't mind me asking, but I was wondering if there was any fish species that your mer Dick & Bruce are based on? I know bruce is mostly monochromatic/transparent in terms of scale coloring & dick mostly is red/yellow, but I was curious if there was any IRL inspiration for their tail shapes! TYSM :)

Hiii!! You don't know how excited your ask made me! Feeling real giddy as I type this up!! 😆 Anyway, back to your question. Yes! They're both inspired by real fish species. I've taken a lot of creative freedom, but, they both are inspired by real fish, or, an amalgam of several fish.

Regarding Bruce, he's inspired by both lionfish, lionfish larva, and a leafy sea dragon.

You're right that he is kinda monochrome, all the scales on his lower body are black. His ear finning is black as well, but, he's got transparent and translucent (depends on which you look at and the lighting) appendages there as well. Like the lionfish, he has spines, and venom (like the lionfish), which hasn't come up yet, they're mostly black, but, like the leafy sea dragon as well, he's got these sort of floaty appendages on his lower body and back, like a dorsal fin (transparent/translucent depending where on the fin you look at), which are a mix of black and transparent/translucent (mostly transparent/translucent). That's why he's so glittery, and Reader keeps mentioning that as well. He's also got this light finning (idk, I don't think that's a word but I'm going to use it anyway) draping from his elbows, similar to Dick.

And Dick, the little mer. I felt so clever for this.

I was inspired by pictures of this fish right here.

This, this right here? That's a Sea Robin (😉), also known as a gurnard. 😏😏😏, felt so smart for this.

Once more, I've taken creative liberties with this, but, hey, ¯⁠\⁠⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠⁠/⁠¯. Dick has the reddish body, except brighter, more pigmented, and rather than those gorgeous pectoral fins, the green ones with blue spotting, he's got twin bright emerald green dorsal fins meeting on the ridge of his spine, like little wings. 🤗. He's got some light finning at the elbows, soft, not spines, and yellow pelvic, anal, and caudal fins, as well as the fins at his ears. That's what he looks like. 👍

So, their designs were both inspired by real fish, several different types, and, btw, I did not mind you asking! 🤗. I loved your question, and really enjoyed answering it! If you have anymore, go ahead!!

Have a nice day!!

your medic oc lutz is ADORABLE, may we get some dating headcanons for him? :3

OHHH YES MY BABY PLEASE PLEASE ASK FOR MORE OF HIM HE LOVES YOU GUYS SO MUCH

Lutz Kruspe (goth medic OC) Dating headcannons!

Wc: 0.5k

A/N: I hope these suffice, I've never actually done dating headcannons before lmao

A/N 2: Here's what he looks like incase some don't know:

Masterlist

─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───

◇ Oh he absolutely tries to convince you to try his style! If you do, you can either try on his clothes first, or he'll even buy you your own first gothic outfit if you're not already a bat like him~

◇ You know what- even if you are, that's likely one of his favorite ways to treat you. He loves making you happy! Such a puppy! Lives to see a smile on your face.

◇Asks if he can do your makeup, and can you really say no to those puppy eyes? You look amazing with it btw. (and without ;3 ) Like, he'll do these cool spiderwebs or bat wings for your eyeliner if you're willing.

◇He just wants an excuse to be really close to your face. Maybe steal a few kisses.

◇ Ahem black lipstick ahem

◇Goth culture is based on the music, so of course you two would listen to his tunes! If you're a bat or a baby bat, he absolutely gives you recommendations! Even if you're not, he tries to find songs or artists you may be interested in!

◇ He's veeery physically affectionate! Apologies if you're not into that, but gentle loving is his favorite way to love. Gentle touches, quick, tiny kisses, tracing shapes across your skin absentmindedly-he's all about that.

◇Adores snuggling while watching horror/thriller movies, but he'll let you choose whatever you wanna watch if you're not interested.

◇If you're comfortable with it, he tries his best to always be touching you in some way or else he gets a little sad :(

◇Ex. Holding your hand, hand in your hair, hand on your thigh/knee, again- tracing small shapes on you absentmindedly is a very common thing

◇His favorite thing ever is when you toy with his hair! He lets it grow out a bit sometimes even so you can try to braid it if you like~

◇Tries to treat you so much. Yes his favorite type of affection is physical but he just wants to treat you any way he can so he'll try to buy you stuff you like

◇Speaking of, not a relationship headcannon but just in general about him he doesn't.,, really understand money very well. Like, he understands that objects that are more expensive are supposed to be better but he just- doesn't quite comprehend that. He'd prefer a ring-pop or 10$ ring over an actual expensive ring if that makes sense? He doesn't want you spending too much on him too ww

◇Now, he's still a medic. And you'll know the term pocket medic very well if he's yours.

◇Trails behind you like a lost puppy

◇Gives you some unconventional gifts too. He's still a medic and he's still lost his brain a bit. Oh, you didn't want a human heart? Will a baboon heart be better?

◇If he had a tail, he'd be wagging it 24/7 around you

Not as happy with it as Hearts but heres my

Mind redesign!

Headcanons + Stims below!

(Btw, the stims I put are ones I think that fit, but are also ones that I have since I know those the best. But I'd be happy to hear any other ideas!)

Stims:

• Hand shakes or twitching

• Chewing & clicking pens. Also tap, flips and shakes them in his hand

• Scratches arms & thighs. (especially when stressed)

• Holds/Messes with tail

• Paces around a lot, he cant sit in one space for long

• Clenches jaw fairly often

• Fidgets with any jewelry on him (rings bracelets and necklace)

Headcanons:

• Also uses the name Ciro

• He doesnt really mind what pronouns people use but they more prefer He/Him since thats Whole's. But they also uses They/Them, It/Its and even She/Her sometimes.

• Has a split pupil in the eye thats usually under his hair (its not that he hates it or anything, hes just emo)

• Likes turn based rpgs and bullet hell games. (Undertale, Deltarune, Octopath Traveler, Persona etc.)

• Also likes making things via legos, kandi, paracord, kniting, crocheting, anything really. Sometimes he'll make things for Soul and Heart and give it to them. Bros stubborn and embarrassed by it tho so he leaves it in their rooms or just throws it at them.

• While he does make fun of Heart for hating the light, Mind also hates the night, to the point where it has a fear of the dark. Your brain can sometimes see things in the dark that aren't there. So if they're in the dark for too long, he gets very very skittish and paranoid.

• In general she is also quite paranoid and over thinks a lot.

• Not only does he have his headaches, but neck pains as well as phantom limb pain

• Used to have full moth wings but after a fight with Heart, they were too torn up to use. He still has them, but they're small and he hides them under his jacket. (also why they rarely take its jacket off)

• His hair gets brighter if hes being more (rarely) emotional. (Happier, angrier, excited etc.) The rarer times when he gets startled, his hair goes off like a mini flashbang

• When his emotions are high enough, small sparks will shoot out from his hair

• Also if hes especially pissed off or depressed, it's voice will glitch and stutter way more (like some moments in like Storm and a Spring or TME)

• Has more moth traits but always tries to hide them. He has small antennas but hides them in his hair, has moth fluff on his neck but shaves it so it doesn't grow out etc. Also loves light like a moth but can control himself to not like...bang his head into a lamp post (unless hes like really tired or drunk or something? (heart once had a laser pointer and mind attack it like a cat))

• I dont have a set idea on how Heart went blind. But if it was Minds doing (especially if he used Souls trident), I could see Souls punishment resulting in Mind getting the robot limbs. That or Soul resulted in Mind needing the voice modulator.

• Has a tear on their sleeve from Hearts gunshot

• Cable tail that looks like a Nintendo 64 controller cable. Cause 1. Its an electric tail and 2. CJ (& me) likes LoZ Majoras Mask, which in an N64 game.

• Him and Heart are the same height but Soul is slightly taller. Heart doesn't mind it (nor can he tell) but Mind is slightly annoyed at that so he wears heels and heeled boots to be tall or as tall as Soul.
