Guys I Wanna Use More (w/ ways to plot with them!)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Elysia
Tumblr media
She's one of my sea slug trolls, the Sagosa line!! As such her 'hair' is actually fleshy cerata like a sea slug. She's very peppy and upbeat and currently works at Vapore's smoothie bar as a waitress. It's an outdoor location by the beach and she's usually on rollerskates.
It's the best place to find her!! While you're there, if it's slow, you might be able to chat with her. It's polite not to flirt while she's working though--unless you're a hot butch lesbian, then she doesn't mind. Not at all
Lesath
Tumblr media
Based loosely on the unkillable giant crocodile SCP as well as capybaras, Lesath has worked for the Fleet ever since they yoinked him as a kid and he's just resigned to it now. He's got an uncanny knack for not dying--he's not immortal or anything, just really hard to kill.
As such, he's usually assigned to dangerous tasks like guarding scary prisoners or anything with too much accident hazard for a normal guy to take the job. Right now he spends a lot of his time with Commander Mantle, working with Fleet employed psions, but it's always possible that he gets reassigned for a time to work with other officers/ships.
Maasco
Tumblr media
This country dogboy is a shepherd and livestock guardian guy. He doesn't really have much going on besides living out in the country and caring for his flock, but he could always use some company that's not a sheep...
Orcinus
Tumblr media
Orci is a pretty straightforward guy. He's a heirkiller, he kills fuchsia heirs that don't align with his rebel group's radical rebellious ideology. He's in incredible need of someone who can get him to loosen up and enjoy life outside of his work every once in a while. Or we can write toxic yaoi. The possibilities are endless
Xylova
Tumblr media
Oh Xylova... This guy needs a total rehaul after his previous plots fell through. He's based on Xylitol Nova Cookie from Cookie Run Ovenbreak. He's part of a population of trolls that crash landed on a strange alien planet millennia ago at the dawn of Alternian space expansion and were never rescued. Now, they have a whole civilization that has somehow managed to avoid direct colonial reconnection with their homeworld.
Unlike Alternians, trolls of all blood colors from this planet have gills to filter out toxic heavy metal fumes from the air and require a mineral-rich diet since their planet is almost entirely metal. Additionally, there's not much of a hemospectrum system, since really only red - pink - purple - blue colors exist and the way their civilization started wasn't exactly conducive to systematic hierarchy--if they didn't all work together they probably would have all died lol.
Plotting with him would require a large undertaking in me basically remaking his entire planet, but you could have a guy on it too if you want!
Erraizi
Tumblr media
Lastly, on the topic of aliens-- not exactly a troll, Erraizi is one of my OTHER aliens!! They live on the planet Adehiiri. It was invaded by Alternia a few decades ago, but there's very minimal colonial presence due to how challenging it is to actually build on the planet's surface. Adehiiri is characterized by very strong magnetic fields that generate giant, miles-deep cavern systems where in some places the surface is only a few feet deep. The arran'roa, the native sapient species, can manipulate these magnetic fields to float through the air in the caverns. Adehiiri does have a space port though and it IS possible to live there as a troll, provided you have a way to get around!

Some Cain backstory please?
Tumblr media
Sure thing!
As far as his childhood goes, the only really significant thing is that he wasn't really socialized properly. He has a lot of difficulty with social interactions as a result of that, as well as feeling generally outcasted from society due to being an Evo, even though he's very civil as far Evos go and incredibly intelligent by human standards. (He was a human throughout most of his childhood and mutated somewhere in his teenage years.) He has a general interest in people as a whole as well as the medicinal field and took up surgical practice because of it. Somewhere along the line, Cain begins eating freshly deceased corpses in the morgue of the hospital he works at because there's no such thing as a lunch break when you're a surgeon. Eventually, he gets caught and is about to face persecution, until out of nowhere, he's transported to another foreign world ruled by a rather troublesome and flighty deity. He becomes friends with Sketti, a younger Evo, and they start living together. Soon after, they find an abandoned robot in the depths of a cave, and now yeehaw theyre all best friends forever.
Aaaand heres some fun facts from the google doc

Genshin characters as ways animals court and mate
Welcome to another round of (hopefully) the weirdest biology lessons you'll ever receive. Essentially a shitpost, someone should take away my writing privileges. There could be better suited animals out there, I just chose from the ones I know. Some are reposts from my old blog, some are new.
Characters: Wriothesley, Dehya, Venti, Keqing, Kaeya, Xiangling, Neuvillette, Pantalone
Tags: nsfw in the way a national geographic documentary is, there are no graphic details but proceed at your own discretion
Wriothesley - Acinonyx jubatus (Cheetah)
Regrettably, Wriothesley doesn't have as much time to see you as he'd prefer, seeing as he spends most of his time in the fortress. As such, he can be somewhat of a passionate and at times eager lover when he gets his hands on you. He takes pride in his physique and thoroughly enjoys when you're visiting and goes down to watch him train. Better yet if you see him win a match. Once he has you alone, he wastes no time getting close, his voice low and sultry as he asks about all that has transpired since he saw you last. His hands roam along your body as you try to answer, knowing full well nothing you say makes sense, heart swelling at the look in his eyes. It's fine, he'll ask again later when you're both relaxing with a cup of tea. Cheetahs are actually very straight-forward when it comes to reproduction. Males living in coalitions will sometimes fight for the right to mate. Females use a combination of vocal signals and urination to attract a partner, the male might also use urination to indicate his location. Once the pair meet, the male produces a series of sounds called the 'stutter-bark' which triggers female hormonal cascades and induces ovulation so the female is in prime condition for mating. Wriothesley could make a lot of people ovulate with his voice alone let's be honest.
Dehya - Orcinus orca (orca / killer whale)
You first notice that things have changed when Dehya starts inviting you along (only on jobs that are low risk, of course). Then you notice how her touch begins to change, what used to be simply grabbing your wrist to pull you back before a sumpter beast could trample you turns into a lingering hand at the small of your back or a thumb rubbing circles along the back of your hand as she doesn't let go. She's always been talkative with you, but at this point, there are so many layers to your communication that an outsider would have trouble following a conversation. Next, you realise that several in the Corps of Thirty recognise you as "The Flame-Mane's partner", something that only makes her smile and wrap an arm around your shoulder when you bring it up. "You don't seem to mind it". From there, she's in Sumeru City more often, dedicating her time there to you - especially if she can convince you to let her dress you up. Orcas are incredibly intelligent and have a very high level of social organisation. Pods are tightly knit but can split for a few weeks to months depending on conditions. Courtship behaviour typically includes vocalisation specific to the dialect of that clan (one organisational level above pods), play-like behaviour such as breaching the surface, and non-sexual physical touch. "Coerced mating" does not seem to appear in orcas, with one observed instance of a male (with the aid of its mother) attempting to kill a female's offspring to mate with her resulting in the female severely wounding the male and thus dissuading further attempts. Orcas have also been observed to... dress up.... by placing dead fish on their heads and swimming around like that.
Venti - Sepia apama (Giant cuttlefish)
This little charmeur knows exactly how to play the mating game despite competition being fierce. Not exactly imposing, people merely scoff when he cozies up to you. Sure, he has his hands all over you and his head making a bee-line towards your lap. But he's drunk. And oddly endearing in how gently he touches you, like you're something precious, his eyes almost shining when he looks at you. Gotta remember he's a poet as well, a few of his sweet words and it's impossible to resist going home with him. Giant cuttlefish males are very competitive and aggressive, with the largest ones being able to secure females. BUT smaller males, sometimes referred to as 'sneaker males', will wait for the larger male to be distracted and sneak past to mate. They've also been observed to change their colouring and hide their hectocotylus (think of it as a specialised penis-arm) to resemble a female and better hide.
Keqing - Hippocampus hippocampus (Short-snouted seahorse)
The Yuheng of the Liyue Qixing is, unsurprisingly, a busy young lady. However, that doesn't mean there's no time for frivolities. It's just a matter of adjusting your schedules, nothing a bit of planning can't handle. She's fond of inviting you for early morning walks, preferably bringing breakfast for a brief stop at the outskirts of Liyue Harbour. Of course, you notice that she starts asking for your opinion on a multitude of topics, most curiously when you've joined her for shopping and any compliment from your lips has a faint blush dusting her cheeks. Despite how independent she is, the closer you two become, the more comfortable she gets with trusting you to lighten her load. Absolutely adores coming home to you being all domestic. Short-snouted seahorses are extremely faithful to each other once they're a pair, even syncronising their reproductive stages to be fertile at the same time. The first time every day a pair meet, they perform a 'greeting' that typically lasts more than five minutes and consists of moving around together. Like all other seahorses, they are ovoviviparous, meaning the female has an ovipositor that she uses to deposit eggs into a pouch on the male's abdomen. The male carries the eggs until they are fully developed, at which point he goes into labour. Interestingly, a male in a secure pair is ready to receive eggs mere hours after labour without any negative health impact.
Kaeya - Pavo muticus (Green peafowl)
Kaeya is impossible. Between being quite the flirt and keeping everyone at arm's length, you well and truly have no idea what's going on. You think he always dresses up a little more nicely when he knows in advance you'll be there. You think he tenses a little less when it's your hand that brushes against his skin. You think he sounds a little more sincere when he invites you home. But that's the frightening part, you think a lot of things, but you don't know anything. Not until the day he looks a little worse for wear, makes no move to undress you after sitting down on the bed. He brings your hand to his cheek, guides your fingers to push his eyepatch off. You don't praise the beauty, instead opting to press a kiss to his eyelid. That's when he confesses to having only sought out your company and how he doesn't want to continue with things as they are. He wants more, even if it scares him. Green peafowl sets itself apart from the more commonly known Indian peafowl by not displaying lek behaviour (a lek is a gathering of males where they 'perform' for the attention of females that roam around). In the wild, young males have been primarily observed maintaining a harem, but because of conflicting observations, it is believed that while juvenile birds can gather in a harem, older birds form monogamous pairs. While the tail of a peacock is traditionally considered an ornament for attracting females, it is now also considered "honest signalling of fitness". A longer tail makes flight more difficult, and evidence points towards investment in tail growth happening at the expense of immune function. A bit like some unhealthy things humans are prone to partake in to enhance appeal.
Xiangling - Blattella germanica (German cockroach)
It probably comes as no surprise that Xiangling likes to surprise you with treats and meals. She takes great pride in making sure you're provided for and makes certain there's never a dull moment for your tastebuds. Maybe it's a little overwhelming at first, but don't worry, she'll learn your preferences for flavour combinations quickly. But more than anything, Xiangling loves being in the kitchen with you and seeing you add your own personal touch. Sure, she has a penchant for running all over the place, but there's no place like home. Blattella germanica males produce a sugary substance that they secrete from their back, offering it to females to keep them still long enough for copulation. This penchant for glucose led producers of pest controls to include it as bait, but as nature tends to, this has prompted a rise of glucose-aversion and a shift towards the sugary substance produced containing more complex sugars to distinguish the taste. Experimental little chefs.
Neuvillette - Torquigener albomaculosus (white-spotted pufferfish)
The kind, thoughtful, compassionate, awkward Iudex of Fontaine is the picture of "he's a little confused, but he's got the spirit." Neuvillette has no idea what to do with himself the first time he feels his heart tighten at your smile. Unfortunately, he's not exactly subtle, various romance novels suddenly popping up around his office... He tries everything, consults Furina (not a good idea, too many sweets), the melusine (better but still not great, aquatic flowers aren't that appealing on dry land), gifts you pure spring water with a taste description matches your personality in his mind (Wriothesley begged him to just invite you for tea instead and Neuvillette should have listened). It gets especially bad endearing when he asks you to accompany him for a stroll. You're confused when he brings you out into shallow water, insisting you sit down while he proudly presents the partially submerged 'nest' so you will always have a safe place to return to. These pufferfish have some unique habits compared to other pufferfish. To impress a female and show that she will be well taken care of, the male creates a large nest on the seafloor, making big circles and pushing the sand around to get it just right. We're not exactly sure why they make these nest... And even less why they seemingly refuse to reuse them. It's believed that females pick a male based on how 'impressive' the design is and how fine the sand within the nest is - presumably for the safety of the eggs. If I were a pufferfish and a slightly different kind of pufferfish started showing off a nest, I'd be pretty confused.
Pantalone - Gerridae spp. (Water striders) OR Garrulus glandarius (Eurasian jay)
How Pantalone acts very much depends on who you are and how you behave. If you're simply a means to an end (his own release) then you can expect to be used, under threats of misfortune if you're uncooperative, and then discarded. But, if you've truly caught his attention as something worth keeping, then you can expect a well thought out, catered specifically to your tastes, display of his wealth and what he can offer you if you stick around. Gerridae males will mount the female while they're on the water surface and thrum his legs against the surface to attract predators (the female is more likely to be eaten since she is closer to the surface), only stopping once the female stops resisting. The eurasian jay has been observed to regularly give gifts, not only right before mating, and has displayed that conscious thought goes into picking what the female will appreciate the most, with often opting for bringing her something 'new and exciting'.
If you - for unknown reasons - would want me to assign your fav (from genshin or hsr) an animal, send me an ask (❁´◡`❁)
There's also a comprehensive guide on Dottore and mating

Jason Rovelin
-Jason was your boyfriend for about a year, but before the two of you got together he had worked on getting any rivals out of his way and isolated you from everyone.
-Leaving him your only option and comfort. He had you move in with him in just a few months and made you quit your job. Saying that the drive from home to it wouldn’t be worth it.
-Though when he noticed you trying to become friends with your new neighbor Jason was having none of it and killed them.
-He was caught and brought to court where his lawyer convinced the whole court it was involuntary manslaughter. An accident. Where the murder weapon a chainsaw slipped while Jason was cutting down tree branches killing your neighbor. That the safety strap on it was manufactured wrong. A simple defective product what was Jason to do? After all he couldn’t predict any of this would happen now could he.
-He was sent to jail for four years. But you knew it wasn’t an accident. You knew the truth. So you sent him a letter breaking up with him. You never heard anything back.
-Growing scared you moved away hoping that you’d never have to deal with Jason again. Before you knew it four years passed and he was released from jail. After a week or two of silence you started to think that maybe he didn’t know where you lived! Till you heard a familiar flap of wings as the door to your home creaked open.
Rain Orcinus Pearl
-Rain is the youngest child of six, as such he never had as many expectations put on him like his older siblings did. Which was how he liked it he was free to do his own thing.
-Especially in modern times his job felt so much easier just sit around and do the bare minimum. The only real effort he put in was into his hobbies. He barely left the castle because of it and only left when he had to for politic affairs and all.
-Though one day his eldest sibling Dew dragged him outside to get some fresh air. Rain groaned and pouted the whole time as Dew rolled their eyes and pushed their sibling to get out there. To get them off his back Rain swam up to one of the small boats to socialize with whatever leg haver was on it.
-To his surprise he didn’t expect to see someone as pretty as you. Rain froze up his face flush as he tried to get any words out of his mouth. Looking down at the prince you spoke trying to see if he’d say anything.
-It made Rain more flustered hearing your voice and he slowly sunk back into the water since he wasn’t moving. So shrugging it off you went back to your thing. After a few minutes Rain came back up and climbed into your boat struggling to pull himself up.
-When he did he kinda just flopped into it and was quick to fix himself so he wouldn’t look like a mess. Rain tried to flirt with you, but it was honestly a bit pathetic he kept stumbling over his words and had a hard time saying anything cohesive. But you laughed which was a win in Rain’s books.
-Rain had one goal in mind getting a cutie like you to marry him I mean he is a prince who wouldn’t say yes to him. Or at least a date! He can work with a date, dates lead to marriage! Right??
ᡣ𐭩ྀིྀི₊ ⊹ ᡣ𐭩ྀིྀི₊ ⊹ ᡣ𐭩ྀིྀི₊ ⊹ ᡣ𐭩ྀིྀི₊ ⊹ ᡣ𐭩ྀིྀི₊ ⊹ ᡣ𐭩ྀིྀི₊ ⊹ ᡣ𐭩ྀིྀི₊ ⊹ ᡣ𐭩ྀིྀི₊ ⊹ ᡣ𐭩ྀིྀི₊ ⊹ ᡣ𐭩ྀིྀི₊ ⊹
Little facts!
Jason Rovelin
-Jason is best friends with Rider the two having met in jail. They see each other sort of like siblings too. Especially since Jason is older than Rider by 11 years he did his best to watch out for him when the two were in jail.
-When the two see each other Jason likes to tease Rider by pulling him down to his level. Making Rider groan and roll his eyes getting huffy.
-Rider and him having matching friend tattoos and Jason only trust him to do his ink.
-Jason is 36 and 6”5
-As an artamea angel Jason has the ability to flashbang you, which he has done to you before sometimes by accident, sometimes not.
-If you’re taller then him, he’d fly just high enough to be taller then you to mess with you.
Rain Orcinus Pearl
-Rain’s family are descendants of the very first ocean folks made by Luvan it’s why they have their royal status.
-Rain really likes history and studies a lot about the Eclipsed War the biggest one in their world’s history. It happened over hundreds of years ago and somethings are lost from written history. Which is why he finds it so interesting.
-Rain is 24 and I don’t know how long he is exactly yet lol
-His childhood nickname was Inny because he had a speech impediment when he was a child and couldn’t pronounce Rs.
-He gets embarrassed when his siblings call him Inny.

Do you do marine mammals as well? I would like to know your chunk funk gunk rating of my beloved Orcinus orca
Today on CHUNK! FUNK! GUNK! We rate
the ORCA WHALE:
Tumblr media
9.3/10 Chunk
10/10 Funk
1/10 Gunk
Orcas! They’re so cool- though they aren’t actually whales. Orcas are dolphins, but they’re so big that they’re referred to as whales.
Their chunk is incredible, but only dampened by the fact that they do indeed have bones. High chunk. Orcas are iconic, look at that bold black and white patterning; Their beautiful smiles; and their incredible brains… maximum funk. From my brief research, it seems that Orcas do secrete mucous, but it’s the normal way mammals do (eyes, internal organs, etc.) so they get low gunk.
Overall Rating: 9.7/10
I’ve never had too much of an interest in orcas (it was mostly from my “not like other girls” mentality holding me back from enjoying popular things) but they’re REALLY cool. They’re so incredibly smart and their hunting patterns are amazing.
My favorite orca related fact is that the biggest predators (physically, not numerically) for the North American Moose are orca whales!!

Fursona ideas:
Komodo dragon: big! apex predator! venomous!
Orca: big! apex predator! venomous! looks cool as hell
Indonesian giant sailfin dragon: has a sail on its tail & is the largest species of sailfin lizard. also the only thing on its wikipedia page after the info box is this:
"Reproduction
H. microlophua is oviparus."
Something from the dragonfish family: apex predator! their mouths are like 90% Which Seems Fun. take a look at the black dragonfish!
Perentie: lorge :) stylish
bobbit worms: They Seem So Fun and look so cool and are Ambush Predators
- thepppit
Varanus komodoensis, a beloved classic <3 genuinely one of my favourite animals since forever because of their size and habit of swallowing large prey whole. Also, so cute. Like. Look.
Tumblr media
look at that face. baby. baby boy. STINKY baby boy. stick he whole head inside deer carcass. hunts by biting something and waiting for it to die of the resulting sepsis. maybe i could have this one for just being an unapologetically gross gremlin.
Orcinus orca, bastard of the ocean!!!! i pretended to be a killer whale a Lot when i was a kid at the swimming pool. Sadly excluded from serious consideration because I want to find a non-mammal, but they still have a special place in my heart.
Tumblr media
also, they sometimes wear salmon hats. we aren't entirely sure why.
Hydrosaurus microlophus, a new friend to me! Oh my god thats the most muppet-looking lizard ive ever seen.
Tumblr media
look at him. god made that out of all the left-over lizard bits She didnt want to waste.
Tumblr media
also you werent lying, that wikipedia article can contain zero information. obsessed with the person disputing the species confusion. i can only assume they were taking it as a personal insult.
Idiacanthus atlanticus, another classic! I love that they can be their own flashlight. I was today years old when i discovered how small they are
Tumblr media
probably a little bit too scrungly to be entirely gender for me? but i do love the barbels.
Varanus giganteus, another new friend! Holy SHIT thats a look!!!
Tumblr media
look at them! gorgeous!!!!!! i immediately showed this to my partner and we agree that's much more a scalesona for them than me. Fuck, they're elegant tho. the pattern, the claws, the posture. 1000/10. Interesting that this is the second monitor lizard on this list. Maybe thats a sign.
Eunice aphroditois, the OG bristleworm in my book. i really think this is the direction i ought to go with a 'sona. I mean, just look at her.
Tumblr media
glistening. faceless. undeniable raw sexual energy. named after a lady who chopped her husbands penis off (they stuck it back on, more's the pity). ultimate goals.
thank you so much for all these guys, i am so happy to look at Cool Animals That Could Be Me.

Since Tumblr keeps eating this ask, going to try until it gets answered: Orcinus x grandfather for all: after the USJ, Izuko goes talk to Asui about the incident, and has a bad reaction to the name "shigaraki" Asui asks why, and Izuko trusts her enough to come clean, not knowing that Aoyama nad Tokoyam are overhearing the whole thing
Midoriya would literally never tell Asui because of literally this exact situation. That's what the paranoia is. You might recall that in the Akatani AU, in this situation, Midoriya debated faking his death instead of telling her anything.

This is your invitation (not an obligation though) to spill some orca facts if you feel like it (saw the tags on that orca video) 🐋
I fuckin SCREAMED when I read this, I'm literally foaming at the mouth with joy. Any excuse I have to give people fun facts I will happily take! I could talk about Killer whales for literal hours so I'll keep this short!
Killer Whales (Orcinus orca) can reach an average of 23-27 feet and can weigh as much as 13,300 pounds! These guys are massive!
Tumblr media
And contrary to popular belief you can call them Killer whales! For one, they truly are vicious hunters so its a well founded name. Secondly, That's just what their common name is and the term "Orca" is more of a slang on their scientific name. It would be like Calling a Brown Bear "Arctos" (their species) instead of just "Brown Bear".
Currently there are 10 known ecotypes of Killer whale across the world, and while they're not different species (YET) they really should be! They all have different dialects, prey preference, behavior, etc. and they don't interbreed between types!
Tumblr media
(just 3 of the 5 types in the Northern Hemisphere. All shown live in the North Pacific)
My personal favorite is the Offshore Killer Whale because they are just the most Bad-Ass ecotype in the Pacific! These guys form groups of 20+ individuals and tend to eat fish, but what really sets them apart is that they eat SHARKS TOO! But not the entire shark! These guys are picky and tend to only eat the fins and the liver, they then leave the rest of the body for whatever swims by.
Tumblr media
(Killer whale with a FUCKIN GREAT WHITE IN ITS MOUTH)
And because shark skin is so rough (and is literally made of the same things your teeth are made of) this tends to wear on the teeth of these whales and make it harder and harder to hunt as time goes on. Because of this they tend to have a shorter lifespan than the Resident or the Transient types.
Tumblr media
These are just a few little fun facts to impress your friends and family, but if you want more facts on any thing (general info, specific ecotypes, Identification, etc.) PLEASE let me know and it'll make my day.

Weaknesses: I have bpd, causing me to be very impulsive & emotionally unstable; I get jealous easily; I tend to be reckless/careless; I'm a little naive, but very aware of it & hate that part of myself

How I joined the Arlong pirates
I grew up in the Fish-Man District, because my parents were enslaved by humans when I was still very young. I never saw them again. While living in the Fish-Man District, I had to steal money and food to survive.
(If you haven't watched One Piece, the Fish-Man District was a giant institution for orphaned children. But eventually it was unsettled and therefore the institution became a lawless district where the outcasts of Fish-Man Island gathered)
When I heard of Arlong through various stories, I was motivated by his ideals and ambitions. Tired of the lonely, rough and suffocating life I had lived so far, at the age of 20 I made my way to the East Blue to join Arlong's crew. It was a rough journey, but eventually I made it. Arlong was surprised by my ambition to join his crew and he realized how determined I was. So he agreed and let me join the crew. Over the first couple months, my tendency of being impulsive, violent and ruthless helped me quickly earn respect. I started to really enjoy my new life and had fun doing pirate stuff with the rest of the crew.

How Arlong and I became a couple
As I was the only woman in the crew, Arlong soon decided to keep me a little closer and occasionally have sex with me. But our desires for each other grew beyond physical needs and our relationship evolved into something more than just a captain and his crewmate. Arlong wasn't big on romance, so there was no lovey dovey confession of his feelings. Instead, he was pretty straightforward and simply said he wanted me to be his girlfriend. Although it sounded just like a pirate demanding new property, I realized his gentle tone of voice and the way his expression softened. And I think it's obvious what my reply was.

🌅 (sunrise) - What does your oc look forward to every day? Do they have something to look forward to in the first place? What makes them wake up in the morning? Why do they want to be alive?
🍊(orange) - Is your oc more selfish or selfless? Are they willing to sacrifice themselves or their goals for others? Why are they this way?
🍁 (maple leaf) - What brings your character joy? Do they find happiness in the small things? Does it take a lot to cheer them up?
For Myr & Tristam , thank you for succumbing
I will always happily succumb oblige to you taking the time to ask me about the orcinus orca project blorbos ♪(´▽`)🩵 ask game
(oh dear I'm so sorry this got super long, putting the read more jail up-)
Tumblr media
🌅 (sunrise) - What does [Myr]/[Tristam] look forward to every day? Do they have something to look forward to in the first place? What makes them wake up in the morning? Why do they want to be alive?
[Myr] - Before Reborn came to effectively buy her off the hands of her family under order of the Ninth, Myr's only reason to go on was the hope that things somehow would change. That her condition as disowned would eventually be shaken, one way or another. After all, Tristam would have inherited the title of Ninth Nero Signore, something had to happen at that point, right?
Her dad once told her she was capable of wonderful things nobody in the Cavalieri could have ever even imagined to do. She held onto those words for years, believing that she would have managed one way or another. She had Lidija, Anemone, the plants and the birds. The taste of stolen honey from the pantry, the smell of the gourds growing in the greenhouses she wasn't supposed to visit. Each day, the world would give her a reason not to give up. And when it didn't, she'd remind herself that she's stronger than that, than anybody. She's the strongest of all.
Now that she's in Namimori, things are changing rapidly. Food doesn't have to be earned or stolen, people look for her and call her name. It's ethereal, and she wonders if she can let herself hang onto these new things. The plants and the birds don't change, they stay in their flowerbeds and nests. But what about people?
[Tristam] - well, he's destined for greatness. That's what he's been told since the day he was born. He has a duty, he must become the next Cavalieri boss and bring the family towards a new age of prosperity, like the Fifth Nero Signore did before him.
He's feared and admired, and every day he makes new steps towards a world where that's the same for his family. For far too long the Cavalieri have stayed in the comfortable shadows, while the Vongola, the Cavallone, and the Giglio Nero feasted under the light of the sun. Why should them act different? They have the right. They have the Pallid Flame, a power made to be revered.
Every day, he dreams to be seated among them, the old and decrepit bosses of the other families, shining among them like a gem in the mud.
Tumblr media
🍊(orange) - Is [Myr]/[Tristam] more selfish or selfless? Are they willing to sacrifice themselves or their goals for others? Why are they this way?
[Myr] - Myr doesn't want to be selfish, but as someone who was denied everything she ever wanted, there's no way she has the self-control not to let that part surface.
However, she tries. She's seen Lidija, how many times she risked getting punished for helping her simply because she wanted to, how seriously she took the job of bringing her more food and providing her with everything she needed. She admires people like that.
But Myr is a taker. She wants to be selfless because it brings praise and builds connections, but she will always need something in return. She deserves it, right? After all she was forced to endure, she deserves everything else, right?
[Tristam] - Tristam likes to reciprocate the good deeds his subordinates do for him, but ultimately only to ensure their loyalty towards him. He'd never throw his life, his royal statement of existence, for someone who wasn't even strong enough to survive on their own. It's simply not his destiny.
Tumblr media
🍁 (maple leaf) - What brings [Myr]/[Tristam] joy? Do they find happiness in the small things? Does it take a lot to cheer them up?
[Myr] - Myr would love to pass as the one who finds joy in the little things, but what really makes her happy is being seen, heard and praised. Attention is what truly makes her know she's doing the right thing, that she's going through the right path.
Wether this path is good or bad for her matters little, as long as someone is watching her taking it. Knowing she has a duty to follow through with or someone to not let down reminds her that somewhere at the end of it all there's acceptance.
[Tristam] - Tris's joy is himself, he needs very little else. Or, that's what he thinks. He finds it easier to think that whenever there's someone else in the room. Being so intimidating, very few can stand an informal conversation with him.
And he appreciates those few who can, so much so that sometimes... he wish they'd stay there. No need to be talking, that's exhausting after a while. Just being there. He can't put it to words - someone of his caliber shouldn't need anything or anyone other than himself to find joy. His existennce should suffice him, yearning doesn't suit him.

Your words warm my heart, Jade. Thank you so much. I will definitely take your advice and treat myself gently. I am thankful for your thoughtfullness.
Hehehe, confessing that the word "illegal" made my heart flutter, I really appreciate the kind reminder.
Well, that is unfortunate to hear, but understandable. 😞 For me, becoming a mermaid and visiting the Coral Seas sounds not only fun but also educational, despite the dangers lurking in the depths.
However, if I were reckless enough, the last thing I'd see would be the jaws of a big white shark. 😌
Now I wonder, in your knowledge, what do you think could be far more dangerous to encounter: a big white shark or an Orca?
Good day, Ms Aisha.
It is only natural to wish well for those who have done me no harm... fufu.
In my knowledge... Neither of them are particularly dangerous to me. After all, the moray eel has very, very few natural predators. And, with the evolution of fish developing larger brains proportional to our size... There is not much danger that my family experiences in the depths.
As for you, a human, it goes without question that the Orcinus orca is a far, far more dangerous encounter than the Carcharodon carcharias. You must understand why the orca is dubbed Killer Whale. It greatly amuses me that you can even compare a shark to the likes of dolphin and whales— for sharks are dutiful members of our ecosystem, and the other two... are quite sinister.

I have a few questions about Cain Orcinus. Who I love btw.
What orca population would you say he's from? And is his mother and siblings aware and proud of his profession/obsession?
Is he gay?
And finally, what would happen if Cain and Nevin met?
Thank you for the questions! 1) Cain isn't really an actual orca; he's more of an Evo, a type of creature from Generator Rex. Basically he has weird genes that caused him to mutate and although he does have a (mostly) human conscious and body, he's still somewhat ostracized by humans due to his. well. Evo nature. His orca traits definitely shine through in his personality though, such as his intelligence and his social nature. 2) Cain is bisexual with a preference for women! 3) It depends on how long they spend meeting. If Cain found out that Nevin wasn't exactly human, he would most definitely become fascinated with him and potentially obsessed with the idea of eating him. I haven't talked a lot about Cain's backstory even though I have it all written down, so some of this is most definitely confusing but. feel free to ask me more things about him :3
