I had to take the day off today after class x_x; I pretty much ate and passed out after class, haven’t been able to focus on much besides YT videos ngl.

Anyhow, I’ve been thinking about some of my non-cryptid MMX muses! I’d like to give them a little love at some point, I’m just debating if I want to add them to this blog or make a separate one.

More deets + art under the cut!

This is King Cobra! He’s an actor who has a ton of body modifications he can switch between. Outside of acting, he’s often using his naga mods to resemble his namesake. He likes to present himself as prideful and over-the-top, often liking to bring a little pizzazz and “making things interesting” - but in private he’s surprisingly a sensitive individual. No less eccentric, but you could say he worked his way up so he could give himself permission to be extra.

In his universe(?) he’s known for playing Sigma in prominent movie/tv adaptations. Besides that, he gets typecasted a lot for villainous roles - especially if they need a little hamminess! He also does stage-acting roles, especially in dramas and sometimes musicals.

He’s also a little goofy - it comes with the ham.

Next up is my AU Axl :3

I just call him vamp!Axl or incupire Axl, he’s got less battle prowess but has improved shapeshifting abilities, alongside abilities such as making copies of himself.

I don’t know how to describe him other than “stupid horny twink” but much like how he’s matured a bit in the X series itself, he’s got potential for some interesting interactions and room to grow from them!

Also he’d be very willing to tease/flirt with other people as their crush (or just using his abilities in general) so there’s much potential for shenanigans.

I’ve got maybe a couple more in mind but these two would likely be the ones I would enjoy playing the most :3 If you’d be interested then lmk!!

I firmly believe that Reno never actually died his hair.

Why? Simple. Do you see how fast that man is? Do you see how fucking inhumanly agile he is?

I feel as if there was some sort of experiment on the Turks in order to give them these inhuman inhancements. However, during the time when Reno was receiving his injections or whatever you wanna call them, it effected his physical appearance as well and ended up darkening his hair from a strawberry blonde (I firmly believe that, that was his natural hair colour before all of the experimentation and stuff happened) to a cherry red, and somehow gave him those marks on his face.

You may argue that it's just the materia that makes him insanely fast and he does in fact dye his hair, but this is just opinion and I'm sticking to it.

Suggested cryptids for SW universe:

space crabs that eat cosmic dust

regular Nuckelavee

space manta rays that eat space crabs

infinitely long worms that live in black holes

pool of acid that is actually many creatures with a hivemind consisting of all its victims and dissolves flesh for nutrients

Force sensitive moon cannibals that eat Jedi

space mermaids

surviving Mythosaur (named Messe)

scary ghost clones who went insane, died, and now roam planets untouched by war to kill innocent souls at 3am on the 13th of every month, but it's actually just Clone Force 99

#the black hole worm is inspired by long horse who is also infinitely long and is my favorite fan made cryptid #marci makes an ooc post #this is kind of where i am at work today

[As I climb the multiple levels of stairs to the ranger tower, I take a moment to stop and reflect. I’m exhausted - after the hike to get here, the relief that I felt upon seeing the tower was tempered by the realization I had several flights of stairs ahead of me. I was in Washington State, flown here by my handlers to talk to seemingly the only Esoteric Ranger that would be available for the next month. Not for the first time, I wondered what it meant that they heavily suggested my interview subjects. The best person for the job, or the best PR face in the department?

I reach the top and stop again, and take a drink of water. A figure sitting inside the room at the top turns and sees me, and gets up to open the door. He is young, in his mid to late twenties, long brown hair done up in a bun, a large scraggly beard over the top of his ranger uniform. He has a look of amusement on his face, a sort of polite smile doing its best to cover up a smirk. His accent is thick, Appalachian, and his demeanor still manages to convey a sort of genial calm.]

S] Meghan, right?

M] Yeah. Hold on, let me…catch my breath.

S] Aint no worry. Take the time you need. I’ll just leave the door propped open. And if it helps, there’s iced tea in here waiting for you.

M] That does help. I’ll just….be a second.

[After a moment, I joined the man in the observation room. A cot, a shelf of supplies, a desk with a radio setup, a laptop on a table. A simple room for an apparently complex job. The tree-eye logo of the Rangers is plastered on many surfaces, well worn.]

M] Sheamus Doyle, right?

S] Yes ma’am.

M] I’m Meghan.

S] Pleasure to meet you. Lemme just….

[He takes a jug of iced tea from a minifridge and pours some into two mismatched cups, sitting at the small table and glancing at his laptop for a moment as I sit across from him.]

S] Pardon me, just watchin’ the ‘squatches.

M] Watching?

[He turns the screen around - a topographic map of the area is displayed, black with white lines, with about a dozen white dots congregating in two places.]

S] We’ve been watching the cryptid migrations. They been odd since….well, since. Ain’t been following their normal routes.

M] Is that what the Rangers do? I’m sure you know I’m here to ask questions, so….I guess that’ll be my first one.

S] A large part of it, yes ma’am. Cryptid watch.

M] I guess that’s the “catch and release” part of the poster I saw.

S] Mhmm. It’s hard work, y’know. Better here’n in the Everglades taggin’ skunk apes though.

M] Let me look at my notes…kind of scrambled after the hike here.

S] Yeah, sorry ‘bout that. Everyone’s gotta do a stint in the firewatch, and we pull double duty takin’ notes on the ‘squatches while we’re here.

M] Tell me a little about the Esoteric Rangers.

S] We’re older than the Office is. Bet they ain’t told you that.

M] How so?

S] Office was founded in ‘27, right? E-Rangers were a secret division of the National Park Service, founded –

M] 1916, eleven years earlier.

S] That’s right. Even then they knew weird stuff happens in the forests, so they had a little bit earmarked for people to investigate or protect people from the weird stuff, and the weird stuff from people. When the Office came around later, we got folded into them instead. But by that time, y’know. Eleven years. That’s enough time for a place to develop a sort of….culture.

M] How do you mean?

S] We’re under the jurisdiction of the Office for the Preservation of Normalcy, ma’am, but between you an’ me, the Rangers have our own ways of doing things, our own rules. Was a requirement of the merger.

M] I see. So forested areas are your jurisdiction?

S] Anything that takes place on ‘r around a national park or a nature preserve usually has at least one of us onsite. We have our checklists, our methods for findin’ out what’s going on. Weird shit happens far from civilization.

M] Like what?

S] Reality sorta…gets weak, out here. I heard y’talked to Wren.

M] I did.

S] They’re always on about that noosphere stuff. Out here, with no people, noosphere kinda gets a little…wobbly. It’s like…if enough human minds are the bungee cords holdin’ down a tarp. It’s fine most of the time, but sometimes there’s a wind, you know? The noosphere don’t have the guidance to tell it what to do, so you get…

[He trailed off.]

M] What?

S] I seen weird shit, ma’am. Woodpeckers that move backwards, sealing up holes in trees. Hikers from twenty years ago, missing their faces. Places where the sun never shines, like that old song. Areas that looked like Lucifer’s vacation home, all burned and sulphur-smoke. Deer speakin’ in the voices of dead relatives, antlers shining blue. Gunshots where there shouldn’t be people. Realspace is weak out here. Veil gets thin when there ain’t no one to see it.

M] Is all that true?

S] As true as Mama’s promises.

M] Mmh. Tell me about the….cryptids. What is a cryptid? I know it’s like…unknown creatures, but for you they’re clearly….known, right?

[He sat back after a drink of his tea, giving a wince and a so-so gesture of his hand.]

S] That’s the mundane definition, yeah. The Office’s definition of a cryptid is….a creature whose existence ain’t really evolutionarily plausible, that would raise a lot a’ questions were it known. Jackalopes, you know, no other bunny has antlers, sort of thing. They probably didn’t evolve, per se, so…

M] What about the sasquatch? Wouldn’t it just be seen as a missing link?

[He nods, thinks for a second, looks at his computer, and then jerks his head to the door.]

S] Lemme show you something.

[On the platform outside, bolted onto the railing, is a telescope - or I assume it is. Attached to the long barrel of the device are a lot of wires, a plastic casing that looked like it housed a small electronic assembly, and a revolving series of lenses that look like they can be rotated into the eye ports like an optometrist’s testing machine. He looks into the scope, adjusting the lenses and a few knobs on the side of the device, and locks it into place.]

S] Here, take a look.

[I look into the scope - for a moment, I think there’s something wrong with it. I can see a clearing in the forest, and three….shapes. Smudges on the lenses? No, he’d have seen that. The shapes are blurry blobs from this distance, out of sync from their sharper surroundings. I’m about to take my eyes away from the scope and ask what I’m looking at when I feel him reach over and adjust the lenses again, rotating a new set into place. It’s accompanied by an electric click and a soft whine from the device, and now I can see them clearly. The three blobs were large, humanoid figures, covered head to toe in rusty brown fur. One stands guard in the clearing, while another sits on a stone, grooming the fur of a third, possibly a juvenile. They are...impossible. Majestic creatures, even from this distance.]

S] We call it an Obfuscation Field. They’re sort of always….blurry. In the 30’s we developed techniques to see through it, y’know, but it’s one of those things people can’t find out about.

M] Unbelievable.

S] Somethin’ wrong?

M] It’s just…this whole time, you know?

[He leaned on the railing, taking a vape pen out of his shirt pocket.]

S] Yeah, I heard they kind of threw you into all this. Sink ‘r swim. I wager most people get a slower introduction.

M] Did you?

[He took a hit of his vape pen.]

M] Should you be doing that on the job?

[He gave me an amused look, gesturing around to the forest. I could almost imagine a hypothetical camera comically zooming out to show the remoteness of the tower.]

S] Nah, I grew up in all this. My family’s been practicing “The Work”, so to speak, since they came here four or five generations ago. I never got the hang of witchcraft, myself. You get a dud every other generation, so they say. My sister’s a natural though, she’s interning with the Office in Archival.

M] Some people are sort of…born into knowing this stuff.

S] We call it being “in the community”. At a certain point it all blends together. Your family does folk magic at a certain level, you grow up with your best friend bein’ a lycan, that kinda thing.

M] I feel like I’ve missed out.

S] Ma’am, sometimes it’s more trouble’n it’s worth.

M] Yeah?

S] I love my friends, my family, but….you think I wouldn’t flick a switch, give all this up? Be Sheamus the hipster and not Sheamus the cryptid hunter? Be a hell of a lot more simple. Weird shit attracts more weird shit.

[He took another hit, exhaling a thick cloud. For a moment, shapes in the cloud coalesce - the prominent brow of an ape, a rabbit with antlers. I wonder if he was being modest about his lack of magic.]

M] I’m not really sure.

S] You’re letting it get to you, all of this. So quick, so extreme. I think you need an industrial grade chill pill, ma’am.

M] Maybe I do.

S] I got a guy coming in to bring me supplies tonight. Stay here, watch the sunset, you drive back with him.

M] Are you sure?

S] Hundred percent. Take the evenin’, ma’am. You need it.

[ that art you rbed has me thinking. did you talk once about a hc that there's something slightly Off about john's eyes or did i dream that. because if so: BARKING WITH DELIGHT. ]

YES I ABSOLUTELY DID!! basically i headcanon that, since the demon blood received from nergal 35 years ago has been able to integrate so thoroughly with constantine's system that his blood is now classified as a unique demon-human hybrid (blows a kiss to city of demons), it's also created a few other odd physical distinctions as well!

this includes the development of a tapetum lucidum, an additional reflective layer in the choroid of the eye. it's what cats have that makes their eyes reflect light in the dark, and it lets constantine see better in the dark. he DEFINITELY doesn't know that he has it, he just knows that he's got superb vision for a 70 year old guy & that people get freaked out when he lurks in the shadows, and he has refused to investigate any further than that.

so yeah, his eyes glow in the dark! i picture it more like this (jumpscare warning for large staring cat) than the ringed heterochromia that legend & icon ratblazer draws him with, but the effect is very much the same. / @nightmarecountry

#( ooc. ) OUT OF CIGS.#thank you SO MUCH for remembering this asghjdk this is one of my FAVORITE headcanons!!!!#i like when he is Kind Of A Freak!!! it's fun!!!#the demon constantine on my multi has the same thing but it's bright-ass red bc he's got bright-ass red eyes #i love reflective eyes on creachers it is one of my favorite tropes. let those bitches have a lil cryptid to em! as a treat!#nightmarecountry #( headcanons. ) I'M JUST LIKE THE BASTARDS I'VE HATED ALL ME LIFE.#( answered. ) THIS IS JOHN CONSTANTINE. FUCK OFF.

Self-Discovery.

There’s been times where I felt like a guy, but not a girl, and there's been times where I felt like a girl but not a guy. But I've never wanted to label myself as either or. And for the longest time I've always seen myself as a male. Nothing more, nothing less.

But then something happened, just 4 months ago I started doubting myself, I began to wonder if I'm really a male or if I'm simply just faking it. So I began to try and identify as Bigender. But then I began to realize that I didn't fit that label either. I felt in the dark, confused, and alone in some sort of way.

But I continued to label myself as girlboy, or rather, bigender if you will, regardless of me not really feeling like either.

For the longest time I claimed I was a trans male, I felt like one, but there was a piece of me that also... didn't? So then I began to wonder if I was a female. But that didn't feel right either. So I searched, and I searched, and I searched, and still, nothing felt like me.

But then it was as if a light opened up at the end of the tunnel, an echo telling me to trust in myself and just be, well, me. But I ignored it, because I didn't want to seem like I was pretending.

And then stress and anxiety began getting worse, everytime I looked at myself in the mirror, I would stop and wonder: is this me or am I just lying to myself? I would ponder that same thought for days on end, until one day, I listened to that echo. I followed the light.

And that was today. I realized, that I don't feel like either a girl nor a boy, but rather, somewhere in-between. I feel like neither.

I now can proudly (hopefully) say, that, I Crow, am non-binary. I am not a girl. I am not a guy. I am, neither.

This self discovery has been one hell of a ride, and I want to thank each and every single one of you for helping me get to where I am today. If it wasn't for any of you guys, I still would've been in the dark, pretending to be someone I'm not.

My pronouns are They/Them! Please do not refer to me as She/Him! Masculine or Feminine terms are aloud as long as they are meant in a non-gender kind of way!

Thank you for understanding.

Your pal, Crow.

Ps: If you see that same light and hear that same echo, follow it! Don't be afraid! Self-discovery is very important!!
