#tris plover

[annah-kitathryne]

Just read Robin(1993) Annual #5 and I'm just.

Tris Plover believes in Batman, believing in the legend from Earth, in that there is something more than the ground to look down at. She was offered a possible way ba k to normal, and she didn't take it because she realized it was wrong. She didn't know what was outside the ship that they were on. She met Batman, who was older than anyone she knew. She got to see what was beyond the ship. She got to see the stars. She became Robin, and she fought her way into the ships navigation centers. She knew that Batman wasn't going to come out alive. She believed in finding a place for the people, a place where there could be more than ground and more than the expectations of life. She found that planet, found the destination they needed to go, and she would never see it. She never got to see the planet, but she led everyone else there. They tell her story, she is a new legend. She brought Gotham back to the ground.

Just she only ever appears once. This is the only time we see her character, but there is so much there. Legends of the Dead Earth, you will be remembered.

WILL I FORGOT TO TELL YPO my class in on the highest floor and today during literature a bird landed on the window at the start of the class and stayed there during the whole thing. It kinda looked like a pigeon, its front side+wings were completely white but it had black feathers on its back and it had a beautiful bright orange beak+legs. It was also soaked as fuck(it was raining)

OOOO THATS INTERESTING. i wish i was more well-versed in birds world-wide so i could try to identify it!!!! but it sounds very pretty from ur description its so cool that u got to see it!!!

[enkays-den]

Hermits as birds from where they live/were born!

note: my knowledge is centered around North American birds, so sorry if the european ones aren't super accurate

Bdubs: Northern Saw-Whet Owl. He's just a little guy with big eyes. Small and evil, love him

Cub: Common Starling. Skulk like-iridescence, incredibly friendly. Plus, with Cub running the horn store this season, he NEEDED to be the bird that can imitate pretty much any noise it hears

Doc: Bonelli's Eagle. Large raptor found in Germany. It's straight "brow" and hunched posture remind me of Doc

Etho: Common Loon. THE! CANADIAN! BIRD! Despite being "common", their pattern is simply EXQUISITE Plus, it has a red eye! Also listen to the noises these things make, it's literally stock nature sounds all in one bird. Also, I'd put Etho on my one dollar coin.

False: Barn Owl. Very elegant owl, I just feel it suits her, that's all. Very stately posture.

Gem (Season 10 specifically): Great Blue Heron. It's a fisher, it's blue, it's menacing, what more could you ask for?

Scar (Hotguy): Double-crested Cormorant: A waterfowl bc scar did competitive swimming, it's got a slightly funky shape which I feel suits scar's personality. It also has the Hotguy colors!

Grian: Eurasian Bullfinch. Parrot Grian will not reign supreme. Look at that little guy. He's mischievous, he's red, I do not trust him.

Hypno: Stellar's Jay. My provincial bird! I just think both have very chill and cool personalities

Jevin: Lazuli Bunting. Just a little blue guy!

Impulse: American Goldfinch. Black and yellow, need I say more?

Iskall: Booted Eagle. Something about a stout raptor just feels right. Look at that posture. Reminds me of when Iskall tries to copy the brits' accents.

Joe: Turkey Vulture. Although seen as odd or menacing, all vultures are integral to the local ecosystem and are in actuality, very elegant and gentle birds.

Keralis: Boreal Owl. Yes, I did make the two guys with big eyes owls, What of it? LOOK at him. Put a little hardhat on him, put a little hawiian shirt on him. Precious sweet face.

Mumbo: Avocet. It's basically a vibe check and a mustache joke.

Peal: Black Swan. Big 5AM Pearl vibes. Giant, beautiful, protective. Love that for her.

Ren: Giant Kingfisher. Obligatory King Ren joke, it's a South African bird, and it's kinda goofy looking. I think the speckled feathers look like a ruffled fur collar on a king's cape.

Skizz: Golden Eagle. Large, majestic, hella strong, and he's wearing pants :3

Joel: Tree Swallow. Very small, beautiful, agile bird. The swallow's wings remind me of Asian art styles.

Stress: Magpie. GOR-JUS and LOUD. Imagine her next to Iskall (they're very similar in size, bless them)

Tango: Swainson's Hawk. I fought every bone in my body to not make an Arizona Cardinals joke when I already made a Phoenix Coyotes one maybe half an hour before. The Swainson's hawk is on the smaller size, but still a deadly spitfire, which I think suits Tango

TFC: Brown Pelican. A solitary bird, definitely a rare sighting. TFC was always joking about how much he would eat, I thought a pelican was apt

Beef: Barred Owl. MY FAVORITE OWL. I literally call them 'round beefy boys' and they're just so sweet and I love them

Wels: American Kestrel. I LOVE these little guys. Simply the smallest, cutest and beautiful falcon there is. They're about the size of a pigeon. It's just got such a regal posture despite being a little cutie.

XB: Rock Pigeon. Despite being common and seen as a "dumb pest", they are pretty intelligent, there's a reason they were used to carry messages around. They're also a close relation to doves! The green collar also is like the jacket collar on his skin.

Xisuma: Semipalmated Plover. X and Mumbo were both chosen because of how those birds run on the beach. They're RIDICULOUS. This subspecies is exclusively because it look like he's wearing a little helmet.

Zedaph: Firecrest. Just the GOOFIEST little guy I found on the wiki of British birds. Look at that thing /aff. Also, Zed do be blowing up a lot

Cleo: Partridge. Beautiful bird, looks like they want to kill you in your sleep, just like Cleo.

since it's out i can finally post my piece for @hws-anthology as well as the timelapse for it. as is arguably all my hetalia work, it's a love letter to my friend @pyrrhocorax 's fic Sendlingur og Sandlóa - i'll ramble a bit about how much it means to me, as well as the symbolism i wormed into this piece below the read more :)

i originally had two pages planned for this piece, potentially more - the fic is a good 74k words long and certainly not light on scenes i could and wanted to pull from, but various things led into other various things and one page was all i could manage, so i tried to cram in what i could, so here's that (in a rough, somewhat arbitrary order of focal points)

the opening chapter! the car is a framing device for the piece as much as it is for the journey the characters will take following that first chapter, so i wanted to use the car window/shapes as a literal framing device in my drawing

joi, shaky at best in his sense of self, sees no reflection in the window, instead there's a silhouetted raven to signify the search he must go on to find it

while not perfectly transcribed by virtue of wonky (plus an extra) line(s), the notes coming from joi's headphones are the opening to the song sendlingur og sandlóa, the fic's namesake, which a loved one kindly transposed by ear for me for the purpose of this piece

in a similar vein, the stickers on joi's suitcase are of a purple sandpiper and a ringed plover, the birds after which the song is named - here they are as transparents and in their original colours

i wanted to create a sliiight impression that joi is the one knocking over the chessboard, representing his repeated rejections of it (both physically, and the things it represents)

the chess pieces were also chosen specifically! originally i was going to use a black rook and a white pawn to match chapter 41, but for the sake of having alternating colours and the rest of my metaphors working (iirc) i swapped those colours around. that, and i wanted to match chapter 13's white king and black pawn - the black pawn stuck, the white king was colour swapped for colour cohesion reasons like the other's. (visual contrast was important to me, but the white queen blending slightly into the sky was okay for symbolism reasons) (there was also black king, white rook from chapter 3, so it all worked out anyway - there's a lot of chess in this story and i only had space for so many pieces and colours, basically)

speaking of which, the black pawn is for joi (chapter 13), the white queen is for halle (someone who, from joi's perspective, can go anywhere, vs joi's pawn, someone to be used -> see chapter 35 and perspective).

the king piece is falling (but hasn't quite fallen) between halle and henrik (chapter 3, 7, 13, though i most clearly thought of 19)

the person in the top right corner is eduard! i desperately wanted to include him because i think he's deserved it, and i considered a lot of ways of working him in, but i think an ambiguous silhouette that isn't Quite part of the main picture works better narratively

note also that he's separated from the other's through a red curtain, to represent the iron curtain (naturally) i wanted it to match ber + tino's part in some way, to sorta emphasise their similar foundations despite being split apart across places

the flowers at eduard's window are placed and chosen purposefully as well! orange/red zinnia's outside (for familial ties, steadfastness, friendship and remembrance) for what eduard puts out in to the world, then lily-of-the-valley for tino and cornflower for him inside to show what he wants to hold close :)

halle and joi are the only characters with their eyes open - halle looks towards the viewer/author/reader/joi, while joi looks away all together. if you've read the fic (which i assume you have because i can't imagine this is interested to read otherwise) you probably don't need me to explain why that reflects their roles in the story

similarly, every character apart from the brothers is turned towards another in some way (eduard does not count when his flowers do, and his role in the story is based around that disconnect partially anyway) tino towards ber and eduard (and hana, i guess), ber towards tino, henrik to halle, halle to henrik (though he looks away - his values are elsewhere even when they are together). joi, at best, looks at his own reflection in the window

the colour scheme, while arbitrarily picked from gradient maps based on what i felt "fit" has been approved by the author as being very "SoS core"

finally, the poem on the note, chapter 46

all that being said, i can and will now talk about my personal relationship with SoS, so unless that interests you i imagine the post is done now! thank you for reading :)

the first comment i posted on SoS is dated 2nd November 2016 - logging into my old account i can see i bookmarked it on the 31st August that same year, so i can safely assume i first read or at least found it then. a month after my first comment, i posted another on a different account, pouring a few bits of my heart out and the author responded! we went back and forth a bit and eventually talked (i think) via tumblr for a little, but the majority of our conversations were via skype for whatever reason (we didn't call, just texted). it was a lot of me looking for writing advice, insight to their work/process/skill, talking about The Brothers and talking about psychology/the brain on a general and personal level. i think if i read our conversations back now i'd cringe, given that i was an awkward, fumbling 16 year old, but i dont think anything else wouldve been fitting given the subject matter. eventually our conversations fizzled out and we stopped talking for years, but i'd go back to SoS routinely and cry.

in may of 2021, i posted another comment during what in hindsight was definitely another relatively minor mental health episode - i think it was half trying to emphasise how important the work was to me on the off chance pyrr saw it, and half a bid for connection since i had no idea if they even remembered us talking. i assumed nothing would come of it, and for about a year that was true - until pyrr responded after all in february of 2022 - i'm happy to say we've been talking consistently on discord since then. i feel a little weird speaking too intimately about our friendship as it is now since it's not just my story to tell (though pyrr, if you're reading this) (i'm sure you are at some point) (you're welcome to talk about it however, i just didn't want to without consulting you) but i can say with some certainty that it's at least a little bit my fault that we have a sequel now - cementing my place as official number #1 fan and validating the me from almost 8 years ago in a way i don't think either of us processes well.

it's here that i feel the need to talk about my other dear friend, @hws-lceland , who i'm grateful to have met through the zine's discord server. i'm sure they're reading this too, and a lot of what our relationship means to me is stuff that's probably a bit too vulnerable for either of us to speak publicly, but i *can* say that i love them very much, and i'm really grateful to have someone else to understand, and that he read SoS for me. i thought he needed it, and i hope i was right

sendlingur is...endlessly important to me. i'm aiming to not write an essay here (a goal i think i've already sorta shot in the foot) but i think it's important for me to talk about some of this a little loudly, all the same. my writing has changed because of the series - remeeting with pyrr and showing them some of my more recent work was interesting since it was apparent even to them the influences i'd taken (to be fair, in one section i explicitly asked and did borrow a format of theirs, but this goes beyond that). when i was 16 i asked my mum to read the fic in a desperate bid to be understood. i've cried reading the fic many, many times. i've signed off letters and poems with my switched around version of i'm sorry / thank you / i love you (i swap the first two around) many, many, many times, including in a close friend's wedding gift. SoS has very sincerely changed my definition of love. the name halle is a part of my abstract mindscape. id already considered changing my name to johannes anyway and this fic certainly didnt help. i've gained a friendship of 7 and a half years through it. i've gained another newer one now, too. i am not well. i wasn't well then, reading it, and it hasn't fixed me (i am worse, now, arguably), but it healed something, or at least made me feel understood. i could go on, and maybe sometime i will (there were so many things i wanted to include in my piece and pay homage to!), but for now i will thank anyone who took the time to read all this (again), and say that i look forward to experiencing the sequel

as always, i'm sorry, thank you, i love you

OOOO 1 (don't leave) and 21 (collapse) mayhaps,,,,,,,

HEHEHEHE THANK UUUUUUU <3

Summary: i know people would probably assume i'd write something dramatic for this one like the previous prompt, but no. My brain looked at these, went through several ideas and then finally decided on the final version: pillow talk. And it's even in a funny location.

No warnings, though there is one (1) dirty joke by Klara + the last few paragraphs are a bit suggestive. Anyway, enjoy 🤍

Klara watched as Tobias's finger brushed her palm, its arm softly wrapped around her side, feeling its soft breaths on her back. She'd think it was sleeping, if not for the occasional movements and feeling it blinking every now and then.

She heard its voice, which was a bit groggy, either from not drinking enough water or from what they were doing, say softly. "You're oddly quiet."

"Hmm... Maybe I've just been enjoying the way your thumb is massaging my hand. Or your eyelashes brushing against my back. Or your nose between my shoulder blades."

"Mmhmm," she felt Tobias move a little, its lips kissing different parts of her back, as if moving on a curvy path towards her shoulder. Finally, it leaned its head on her shoulder, and murmured, "There's clearly something else, too." It took her hand gently and moved it close to its face, kissing her fingers. "What's wrong, honey?"

Klara smiled at its voice and cupped its cheek. "I don't know, just a bit lost in thoughts. I-" she sighed and caressed its cheek, "I don't know. It's like I'm suddenly realizing that I've lost so many things? Can't say anything to my family, hell, I think Elliott would happily tell my whereabouts to corporates for a free lunch, which he already gets from them. Can't tell anything to our friends either, just so they won't be in danger. All the resources, all the connections, all the things we had... But, you know? At the same time I feel like I have no limits and no one is controlling me. I don't know..." she paused, "One part of me feels like my whole world just, well, collapsed?And the other feels like I'm completely free for the first time ever."

"Mm, I know what you mean," it said softly, "Weird feeling in stomach as if you feel very sick, and at the same time feeling like you're able to do whatever you want. These two fighting between each other and drowning everything else in your mind. Gets even worse when you're all alone."

"Yeah... Though," she said, "there's also this hopeful feeling? It appears especially when you're somewhere close."

Tobias smiled against her shoulder and kissed her neck. "Glad to hear there's at least some kind of usefulness from having me around."

"Oh, stop it, you dumbass."

"I love it when you call me that," it giggled, "But, um, I guess it's helpful to have someone's shoulder to lean on."

Klara smirked and turned around to face it. "And what a comfortable shoulder it is, by the way," she said and buried her face in its neck.

"Well, I don't know about that, but," it gently caressed her back with its hand, "just know that it's always available for you."

"Mmh, of course."

"And Melody's there for you, too."

"Hmm, yeah. Though I already have one pussy near me..."

Tobias blushed. "Damn, okay then, käresta," it kissed her head. "Oh! By the way, I have something for you. Hang on..." it murmured and rolled to the other side of the bed, and tried to reach for its overalls laying on the floor.

"Mmh, don't leave yet..."

"I'm not, I'm not," it took something out of the pocket and moved back next to Klara, quickly tucked itself in a blanket. "Fuck, it's cold."

Klara pulled it closer and kissed its face. "Huh, is it now? Their AC seems to work very well." She looked at its hands. "What do you have there, anyway?"

"Hehe, well," Tobias sat up, "I know how upset you were when your necklace broke, so I-" it opened its palm, showing a silver necklace between its fingers, a snowy plover charm hanging on it, "-ordered a similar one. I'm actually not hundred percent sure I got the bird perfectly right, but, well, I tried my best. I, um, I hope you like it."

"Sunshine, honey, you didn't have to..." she sat up in front of it and kissed it, "you really didn't have to."

"It has always been important to you. And, well, like you said, you have lost...many things. So I thought that maybe I should get you at least something back," it reached its hands and put her necklace on her neck.

"God, Tobias, if this is another one of your 'I feel guilty for everything' thing, then-"

"It's not, I promise," it murmured and cupped her face, "I do think it's partly my fault, but this is simply because I know how much you cared about this necklace."

"Honey, this is... this is a perfect gift. Thank you so much," she murmured and kissed it all over its face.

"Mmhmm, no problem, darling," Tobias leaned closer, "Now, what do you think of, say, laying in bed for a little longer. Or-"

"Or having another round?"

"I was going to ask about checking on our cat to see if she isn't lonely, but honestly, why not?"

"God, you're adorable," she murmured and gently pushed it down on the bed. While leaning down, she stopped for a monent, quickly glanced out of the window, and said quietly, "You know, I've always thought that being out in space would have some kind of special feeling."

"Yeah, it's verh boring, isn't it? No special feelings or 'wow' moments, not counting the first time you look outside," it turned its head towards the window, "just darkness and white dots. Rocks, if you're lucky."

Klara nodded and leaned down. "Guess we'll have to make it interesting all by ourselves."

"You got it, honey."

I think Martin was lonely.

I think he worked so hard to convince Julia to give up her shade not because he cared if she was hurting or not, but because he didn't want to be the only one empty.

his siblings never understood what happened to him when they lived with plover, or the pain of him being locked out of fillory, or any one of his actions since he escaped England.

(obligatory "I am not defending the beast" note.)

and he meets Julia, who has also been violated, also by someone with immense influence, also by someone who promised to take care of her, also at the cost of the future she'd been building and had been growing around her and involved magic and whimsy and people she could trust.

"you're an absolute savage, Julia," he says to her when he comes back to earth and sits with her in her revenge plan and tries to convince her that her friends are gone or don't care about her.

Julia is the most dangerous, most violent she's ever been. she takes him on specifically so she can use him to kill her rapist. it is anger and it is also protection -- that reynard can't assault her again, can't kill her friends again, can't do the same thing to another woman.

these are the same reasons that Martin became the beast.

Martin tries to convince Julia to give up her shade because she reminds him of himself, and being the beast is so incredibly lonely and unfathomable that it can only be broken by another person who knows why he lost his shade to begin with.

To go along with Augmen de Lute, this is Vanellus Plover! He's acting as Augmen's (very temporary he insists) second in command for the Arrowpoint Pirates.

A once important accountant, secretary, and scribe for Sir Crocodile, Plover finds himself without a home when the warlord is arrested. Since he was travelling with Augmen at the time, the hospitable captain offers him a place to stay, and while reluctant to stay on the loud party boat for much longer, he takes him up on that offer.

I've got more info and bonus sketches below under the cut and if you want you can check him out on art fight!

Height: 5 ft 11 in/180 cm Age:44 Pronouns: he/him Gay

Plover would not call himself a pirate, he doesn’t even really like being out at sea.

Nevertheless he finds himself as the acting second in command aboard Captain Augmen de Lute’s ship. Originally he was an important secretary, accountant, and spy for Sir Crocodile. After the warlord’s sudden arrest, Plover finds himself alone. His new task is to keep Crocodile’s confidential documents and accounting information safe from Marines and pirates alike who want those invaluable files, as well as trying to keep his various business deals accounted for and afloat.

Plover was traveling with Augmen at the time of Crocodile’s arrest. Augmen was escorting the secretary as a favor to the now former-warlord, and now Plover has nowhere to safely go. Augmen offers to let him stay aboard the ship, due to both his hospitality and his knowledge that if anything happened to Plover, he would draw Crocodile’s ire. Augmen also finds Plover to be an interesting traveling companion, something he is always in desperate search of, and enjoys teasing the uptight secretary.

Plover is confident, secretive, uptight, and always working. Even on Augmen’s ship, he’s often squirreled away in his cabin, typing away on his typewriter at whatever classified business he has and making calls on the Den Den Mushi. While accustomed to the refined high-society gatherings of the business world, he’s unprepared for Augmen’s more wild and hedonistic parties. Augmen tries to get him to relax and enjoy himself, though Plover is resistant, claiming to prefer work to enjoying such vices. He does, overtime, become more willing to have fun and indulge in his own interests. He loves expensive clothing, books, and bedding.

Fun Facts: -His name and design are a reference to the Egyptian Plover, a species of bird associated with stories of birds who clean crocodiles' teeth -Doesn't usually go by his first name, Augmen has also given him the nickname "Feathers", he dislikes it -He’d rather stay in for the night with a rare manuscript and an expensive bottle of wine than join in on Augmen’s fun, but he’ll let himself be dragged out on occasion. -He’s secretly a bit of a romantic at heart, he buys trashy romance novels at ports when no ones looking -He appears calm and collected, but he’s got a big temper, making him easy to rile up -He’s quite skilled in espionage, fencing, and book balancing -With no devil fruit powers, he protects himself with his elegant rapier and acrobatic abilities, he can handle himself well in a fight -He’s met Augmen a few times before joining his crew, but never stayed aboard long. He always thought of the man as reckless, lazy, and unserious as a captain. But through his time with Augmen he’s witnessed how dedicated and hardworking he his for his crew, underneath the care-free demeanor. He’s often exasperated with the captain but has gained a lot of respect for him.

Now that I have an sd card I also can finally export my eo5 guild card (❁´◡`❁)

Cleared the game last year, but using this an excuse to talk about them moreeeeee.

EOV guild Ragnarok is on mars so, they have no afilliation with the connected eo 2-3-4-EMD-X Ragnarok lore.

Elma- (Precocious voice) Snarky middle aged brouni. Merciful Healer.

Botanist who inherited her mom's flower shop and the debts that came along with it. Desperately trying to keep the shop afloat... Thankfully for Elma a noble, Lyra, becomes fond of visiting and buying flowers.

Lyra finds out Elma's plight, and offers her an invitation to her guild. Claiming that if Elma escorts her to the top of Yggdrasil, her kingdom will pay her handsomely.

Lyra- (Knightly voice) Passionate, and nice, not necessarily kind. Puts on a regal facade, but she's genuinely very lonely. Chain duelist, Called Astral Fencer. (Or something like that)

Okay so. Lyra is. Actually a liar. She frequented Elma's shop to recruit her ... She is not a noble, but WILL BE ONE once she reaches the top of Yggdrasil. Rumor has it any wish comes true atop it. Nothing will stop her from wishing she is a noble. Her bit is that she has to keep this a secret from Elma.

Plover- (Tomboyish voice) Lyra's hired hands. used to do street fights, a gladiator/ pugilist. Used to be a barrage brawler, is an impact brawler now. She's a little silly, but also still shares a brain cell with Elma. She is the common sense when Elma is tooo much of a hater.

Only in it for the money. Knows Lyra is lying but kinda loves how crazy she is for doing it. Would punt Elma into the sun... Might wanna kiss Lyra and that's why she's okay with her being dishonest.

Mysen- (Gentle) A Therian shaman (Divine Herald) with a special clairvoyance charm. The innocence to the Guild's sarcasm and lies. He's just my son. Hence his name.... He's probably 15...

Last two used to rival Ragnarok. A separate guild called guild legend. Joins the guild at the very end.

Javelin- (Collected) Brooding Masurao.... Blade master. Guy who spends the whole damn game rivaling Ragnarok just to realize he needs to get a new personality and join them in the 5th stratum.

Used to be in a rival guild, Guild Legend, with his wife. Anyway, his wife died and he hired a necromancer to travel with him to the top of yggdrasil hoping to use its power to ressurect her. Attempts to kill Ragnarok so no one gets in his way... he misses his wife.

Renge- (Calm) The necromancer, spirit broker, Javelin hired. Calm, cool, and even more sarcastic somehow. But unlike Javelin, he humors Ragnarok despite being their rival.

He tries to stop Javelin from hurting them... But never actually able to. He has feelings for Javelin and they cloud his own judgement. Starts Helping Ragnarok late 3rd stratum.

Everyone who has ever, even slightly, been Robin

*In official, DC-endorsed media 

Total: 100 (i think)

FYI:

my definition of a ‘Robin’ is extremely vague. For example, I’m counting Lois Lane because she went to a costume party as Robin, and I’m also counting ‘Boy’ from Batman: the Return of Bruce Wayne because he had the domino mask paint and was clearly a stand-in for Robin. Et cetera.

They’re organized chronologically by their first appearance as Robin

Also this is heavily dependent on DC Fandom Wiki, so please let me know if I missed anyone or if anything is inaccurate

KEY

Red = actually Robin for a significant portion of time (more than a few in-universe days & more than one issue/episode/movie/etc)

Approved a denied names?? Is that like, a cultural thing? The government limiting names to keep the ones related to culture and the local native language prominent? Ive heard of governments doing similar things in places where the native language is endangered.

whoops it got longer than expected

its somewhat of a culture and nationalism thing for sure but i think also a beurocracy thing lol they dont wanna deal w keighleigh i guess. they also dont allow unisex names bc homophobia then its not clear whether a child is a boy or a girl :( also they only allow hungarian citizens to have names that correspond to the way we write stuff. thats why we now have names like dzsennifer (jennifer) or a new one kjokó (kyoko). ájlá from turkish ayla (i assume is the original spelling maybe im wrong. also its funny, parents r so into turkish dramas now they wanna name their kids turkish stuff. i love the new turkish names. they approved nazir!) so its not that much a nationalism thing since they keep approving more and more foreign names. english, turkish/arabic and slavic names r commonly requested from what i can see.

also from what i understand its not rare to have this, i think the US is more the exception where parents can just name their child anything w any spelling ever. i think most european countries limit what u can name ur kid. basically the legal side is "only phonetic spelling, only girl names for girls and boy names for boys" and the rest is for the first name committee to decide. im sure one of their things is like, dont name ur kid smth they will get bullied over. but thats very subjective.

they also usually deny shit thats "too unique" or like... when the parents get too creative. but sometimes thats sooo unfair. katamari as a name FUCKS its so good. double names r always the trend, kata mari is two names slammed together. as is narabella (denied) nara bella, or bodzaróza (denied) bodza róza. idk why. those r such good names. sorry if im incoherent im outside w the doggies

also they keep requesting random object and food names. i just saw an article titled "you still cant name your son sausage" like bro yea please deny that😭😭 also some ppl try shit like saintstephen?? as a name? SOMEONE TRIED MARIATEREZA. jesus and lucifer of course, every single year. parents r crazy😭

also they keep requesting animal and flower names, i think they just approved kikerics (autumn crocus) and lile (plover). anyway i dont think its a bad system at all i just haaaaate the phonetic spelling rule. they wont even allow maya bro. but i guess maja is one of the nicest phonetic spellings there is, i love that name.

ough my attempts at drawing turtledove's (turtle tail) kits + turtle herself for comparison

sparrow fur -> sparrow mask; she's the og long bushy tail kitty and a direct ancestor of squilf

baby girl why do you like shitty toxic men so much

at least she'll become a leader, i'll change how she got there tho

pebble heart -> plover heart; his siblings and mom all have a bird theme, it'd be weird to leave him out

he smokes weed catmint w/ dappled pelt

in a better world, he got his calling as a future healer from saving a starving, injured bumble as a wee babe

owl eyes is brown now. like t*m

no thoughts on him, just drew him next to lightning tail for comparison

turtledove herself is now a kittypet who was gifted to the owner of tom and bumble. desiring freedom from her shitty boyfriend, she tried to leave him for gray wing, but uh, a lot of shit complicated that
