There's actually quite a few cool creatures in Sonhara (in my opinion lol)

[witchofthesouls]

I am haunted by Miko/Tarn.

I have a very specific AU for this pairing. A combination between that soulmate ask and this Other ask where the kids are dealing with post everything, including their heritage.

The Primal Artifact is Quintus' Emberstone that cyberformed the young adult trio into full-framed Cybertronians.

Each of them eerie in their own way...

Jack is definitely something bird-related. Dark frame and dark wings, glossy raven-black, a face as pale as a moon, and blue optics with a grey cast. Has an armored coat.

Raf has his draconian heritage on display. Bulky and overlapping segments of plating. He's sharp. Angles and spikes on his broad frame. More reptilian features.

Miko is a War-Forged Seeker. She's not a small nor sleek femme. Way too much teeth with optics that remind her of her yōkai ancestress.

Because Miko's bloodlust and frenzied states grew exponentially with her new form that actually began to turn her into a liability on the field. Ratchet can't keep up with her brute force and savage style, so-

Here comes June Darby, who makes a deal with Soundwave inside the Shadowzone.

Who better to help a War-Forged Seeker who was once a human with seablood than the very mech that tied with the Champion of Kaon.

The Nakadai family still have cultural practices and beliefs that stem from the sea. Unlike the red string of fate, they have something that's considered far more intimate.

Soulsong or Dreamsong. A harmony from another that is compatible with your very essence.

Miko has one. She dreamt of it. Over and over. It was one of the first things she learned how to play on piano.

The Empyrean Suite.

Of course, the Decepticon Justice Division makes it way to Earth. Not only is it the last stand of High Command, but Tarn can actually get a proper location of his fated bondmate. What was once a whisper to muffled broken note is now a blazing presence.

The vibe I'm going for is that Meg Boggs meme:

Miko: "I don't want to be strong like man who look ✨️ pretty ✨️. I want to be strong like bitch that fights bears in the forest!"

Tarn: "She's thinks I'm pretty."

______

Miko's increasingly worrisome measures to put Tarn off, including playing more into her more ghastly yōkai traits, but it just endears him even more because he's an obsessive freak.

Tarn: "She's beauty. She's grace. She will rearrange a face."

(Everyone else watching Miko rip apart a carcass with her jaw strength and many serrated teeth, trying to be as gross and gorey as possible.)

Jack and Raf: What a fucking simp!

______

Soundwave's and Ratchet's attempts to stay busy and disappearing acts because Miko wants to shake them down on what's sexy versus hideous to their species.

Ratchet is a Medical-caste (middle-to-upper) Autobot has no idea how to help her, an ex-human turned morbid Seeker femme. Not with the backward 'con culture of territoriality and savagery, but he doesn't want to be the one who breaks it to Miko that fated bondmates and Resonants are a huge cultural phenomena across Cybertron.

Soundwave has been a major pillar of the Decepticon movement and complied Tarn's dossier, including his neuroses... Soundwave doesn't need telepathy to know it's a lost cause because Tarn gets interested, he becomes obsessed.

______

Running joke that Tarn finally got pegged, and it's by a wild animal. A magic, demon fish. Not Megatron.

[froyo-ocs]

"Hmph..."

"A witch... I assume you're not the flying broom kind? You seem more so the spiritual type... You probably..crush up shells and sea glass to make remedies or what not. That's usually what witches do right?"

"For a violet blood, you dress pretty plain. You aren't even wearing your color... I guess you seablood types don't need as much agency against drones and what not."

"5/10 for you, sea witch."

MUSHROOM JUDGEMENTS

Let Defici, the creepy mushroom girl, to judge your trolls!

[hobovampire]

i humbly request aaravos with fangs

YES very very sharp teefers that loooove to taste

[joleneghoul]

if you have disability hcs about mando i would love to hear them!

i think he’s autistic and has verbal speech issues (why he’s quiet a lot and is quick to the point)

[beautifulterriblequeen]

maybe skywings are like corvids and pick up the accent of whatever flock they're in at the time?

Yes a quality headcanon! I was thinking along similar lines. Skywings and air are integrally connected. They use wind for spellpower and flight, and they have to breathe like every other elf, so they probably have excellent voice control and breathing skills. Whistling, imitation, accents, all kinds of fun stuff. 

Probably acute hearing as well, with very defined differentiation skills. They could tell you if twenty birds are singing or twenty-one. If that accent is real or fake. If someone’s disguising their voice. if someone’s breathing in the next room.

I was hc’ing in the car yesterday be why not that Nyx might speak to every new person in their own accent as a way to make them trust her, a defense mechanism, or just a Skywing way of being polite. Which brings us back around to your hc, @seabloods: birds of a feather grok together.

thank you i’m here all week

[slowedmountains]

poppy! 👑

I’ve actually been thinking about elf royalty a lot this week, been meaning to sketch and write some things up. In short though only the ruler’s classed as a royal, and though elf royals aren’t based on families they are certainly based on blood.

Anyway! here’s Poppy as elf king

He wouldn’t make a great leader but boy he looks good.

[moonshadow-memes]

i hc that during the battle when aaravos was doing the cool magic runes the caterpillar was also doing them with his little front legs

[leafie-draws]

totodile, latias

Totodile: already answeredLatias: What Pokemon do you wish you could have in real life?Dunsparce or Jumpluff because they’d be nice to hug!

[brialavellan]

Aaravos!

How I feel about this character:

Aww man I REALLY wish I had better thoughts about him (I need to rewatch Dragon Prince tbh) but basically my first thought was

1. Dude is BAD news, he kinda freaks me out but 

2. His design is beautiful and his voice is freakin heavenly 

All the people I ship romantically with this character:

I don’t really have any Dragon Prince ships but I would find a dynamic between him and Viren pretty compelling (again, I don’t ship it but like, I could see it - he’s charismatic and Viren obviously finds him compelling)

My non-romantic OTP for this character: 

I don’t know, I don’t really have any (I’m sorry dude!). 

My unpopular opinion about this character:

I don’t really have one…. (I’m really sorry! I’m more of a casual fan!)

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon:

I just wanna see more of him

Thanks for the ask, I’m really sorry my answers weren’t that good :( . I’d love to hear your thoughts though!!!!

[captain-kraken]

i think the bones were worth the effort. also i am legit in love with Pocha now lol

i started doodling on paint.net 4 hours ago. where the hell did the time go.

[witchofthesouls]

You got me hooked on the battle couple and since your the only dealer I'm making it your problem!

Imagine its not poetics or gifts or even battle prowess that wins miko over no. its his fucking musical ability!! Tarn gets it in his head to serenade his beloved with someones freshly removed head as a gift for good measure and for some reason that's what does it for miko who pounces him once the song is done. The next day tarn is walking with a limp hanging off her arm like a pampered trophy wife looking like he got mauled by a bear and miko looks far to pleased with herself.

It's funny because Tarn exhibits many qualities her kin appreciate, and frustrates her even more!

Her cousins would definitely roast her in a good-natured way because of the mysterious mech's dedication with fresh kills and lovely courting gifts.

Oh, and they match, too. Pink and purple complement each other!

Miko is sulking underwater because Cybertronians like to stay from it.

Of course, Tarn plants himself on the beach, bank, pier, or rockside to wait for her. If there's wide space, then he's writing scripts into the dirt and sand via his tank treads or using pretty rocks.

I don't know if it's funny or terrible if Tarn's ability doesn't injure Miko. Not out of fated bondmate bullscrap, but because her seablood heritage came out and sees it as not only a siren-like potential mate but entwined in the words are the undeniable score of her other half of a Soulsong.

Instead of pain, it enraptures.

Think of it as some sort of seablood catnip to the average seafolk, but on Miko? She can't tamp down the instinctual urge to warble out her own part.

Tarn is delighted over the fact that they'll have a private duet. Meanwhile, the others (minus Raf, Jack, and June) are increasingly disturbed by the haunting, ethereal noise that is enemanting from everywhere and nowhere as Miko gets back into singing in sea-tongue.

Not even the exquisite temperatures of a hotsprings could overcome their collective anxiety over it.

Jack and Raf calls them out for it because they managed to go against robot Satan and hordes of the undead, and yet a mating call is what spooks them the most.

It's the ambiance, they said. It's the middle of wild nature with an eerie back-and-forth echo of lovely yet haunting notes. Nothing else is disturbed by their sensors. Where is it coming?

It's Miko. Underwater. She knows how to suppress herself and hide her presence. She's enjoys hunting.

Probably culminates into this:

Miko: "What if I fuck him?"

Jack: "Don't do it."

Miko: "But I do it in a way he wouldn't expect it."

Jack: "Miko, I love you, and we spent lifetimes together, but I'm finding out things I don't know if I want to know."

Miko: "I'm gonna peg his ass."

Jack: "... What if he likes it?"

Miko (not listening): "I always wanted to peg an ass."

Jack (giving up): "Find a good harness then."

Raf (who's been there the entire time): "Ask about lube. You'll need it for aft ports."

Miko: "Ratchet’s been running away from me. I'm gonna need a trap because I need more info."

(Cue a reluctant sex ed for Cybertronian frames starring Ratchet with special guests' input on war-frames from Soundwave and Knock Out.)

seabloods replied to your photo: oh yeah i absolutely made a moominsona…………how...

he’s adorable! does he have two antlers? does he grow them seasonally?

[infini-tree]

(if i were a pokemon what type would i be / dang it its now a fakemon creation meme now)

[name pending] - critter form

A capricious POKEMON that is never seen without its strange pelt, it appears in the late night to take household belongings and abandon it just as quickly. Its advisable to ask permission or leave small offerings before walking into its territory. Its kicks, while unfocused, can knock over trees.

based on a mix of jackalopes, jerboas, duwendes (in terms of behavior) and the various mythologies involving creatures that use a pelt to transform; it becomes a wolpertinger/aswang-esque figure in its alternate form

[blackwatchbastard]

the only thing i'm worried about is that blizzard will make jack the character they kill off since they were hinting at killing off somebody

at this point i 100% would not put it past them
