Having a VIVID idea of liansanjiao as a team of underwater scientists. Dfs is a diver/underwater photographer. Fdb is a researcher aka the one paper-pusher out of the three of them (he writes all the papers). Llh is also a diver and oversees the upkeep of their underwater research facility (he's the one who roped the other two into this) as well as a certified doctor (specifically for marine research-related illnesses, like decompression sickness). They're researching seahorses (because I said so).

#the image of zeng shunxi as modern!fdb in a white lab coat has had me in a chokehold for the past hour #inspired by the newest aquaman because I was just dragged into seeing it #there is no plot it will be ALL vibes #oh god I'm going to have to invent a whole new species of seahorse for them #lian hua lou #mysterious lotus casebook #di feisheng #li lianhua #mlc #fang duobing #liansanjiao #difang #feihua #fanghua #difanghua

At some point down the line, I'm hoping to write three short stories which take place in my own universe of merfolk, essentially creating what could be described as a Mer Anthology. So I wanted to officially introduce the main characters of the first story in that collection!

This story, tentatively titled "Stronger than Blood," takes place in the Gulf of Mexico and focuses on the unexpected familial relationship that develops between Mip and Ardyn. Mip is a young seahorse mer whose coloration mimics that of the blue ringed octopus, a detail she uses (or tries to) in order to fool predators into thinking she’s poisonous. She's a poor swimmer and somewhat small for her age, which she presumes are the reasons why her family abandoned her. Mip's three moods generally include shy, nervous, and scared - but she can be incredibly brave when the situation calls for it. Prove to her that you're trustworthy and you might catch a glimpse of her sweet side. Oelardyn (or Ardyn for short) is a predatory mer who shares similarities to the spotted ragged-tooth shark. The son of a fierce mer-eater, Ardyn rejected his father's ways and broke ties in an effort to lead a different life. Because of this, he tries to not come off as intimidating or scary to smaller mers and tends to remedy his frightening appearance by joking around, but he's very observant and often notices more than he lets on. All things considered, Ardyn is a pretty chill guy. Yet some aspects of his predatory instincts frighten him more than he's willing to admit...

I don't know exactly when this story (or the others) will make their way onto paper, but I plan to post them online whenever that time comes. I'm certainly looking forward to it! In the meantime, thanks for reading about my fish kids :>

I actually love doing hands-on light to medium physical labor in which I can see the progress I'm making. I wish I could do it more often but I'm thankful my body's held up for two days!

#I worked almost an 8 hour shift with the aquarists on Tuesday #and then I helped my dad open his pool today #two sides of the aquatic labor coin #I love skimming out leaves! I love cleaning filters! I love making fun of how dopey seahorses are! I love seeing the water get cleaner! #if only I had the stamina (or even the ability to build the stamina) to do this all the time

tfw your boyfriend says he's never seen a seahorse in person so you take him to an aquarium and he forms a parasocial relationship with one

#i wrote a normal going to the aquarium as a date chapter while sober #and then after an edible wrote a scene where leon is enthralled w a seahorse and starts talking to it #and i dont care im rolling w it leaving it in #btw leon has an 8 stripe pride flag for historical accuracy i am dedicated to my shit posts #<- (it's hard to see bc i fucked around w filters/underwater overlays a lot but i assure u it is 8 stripes)

ok hear me out. neuvillette in hydro dragon form but he's a small seahorse/seadragon like hatori from fruits basket

#this came to me in a vision ok #i kinda want to draw it but idk if i have the motivation so i'm putting it out there just in case #both of them have relations to a symbolic dragon #both of them are stoic on the outside but extremely gentle on the inside #both of them are considered the right hand man of the person in power (technically it's k.ureno in f.uruba but shh h.atori is p high up too) #do you see the parallels #also i just think it'd be funny to go from imposing hydro dragon impression -> seahorse #even though it's been done #thank you for coming to my ted talk #note

AND I WENT IN ALMOST SPOILER FREE!!!!! HONESTLY I PROBABLY WOULD'VE ENJOYED IT EITHER WAY BC I DONT REALLY CARE ABOUT SPOILERS BUT NOW I CAN LOOK AT TUMBLR AGAIN!!!!!!!!

#i think my only spoiler was like..Jodie being mentioned. and he was mentioned a total of 1 time #i think the angels being doodlerized was also spoiled but i figured that would happen anyway #i was something about Glenn.. giving birth. or being a seahorse??? though????????????? i have no context for it. #if something happened in the discord that i didn't see. please enlighten me.

The idea of sea fertility + trans girl Percy, = she can become a mother on her own.

I am desperately trying to ignore the seahorse implications of this

#i like the idea but also- the sea works different and I can only think of the seahorse convos #Dom will see this and jump on to explain I'm sure #but like- do you mean she gets a vagina or mpreg or seahorse? #anon asks #life answers #trans percy jackson

holpol but merman AU.

I have two favourite version of this au.

One is boring normal mermen (not really boring, i love merfolk lore). The other is seahorse Hol and sawfish Pol.

Which one?

#and seahorse hol may or may not have too many kids under his care #(am i implying parenthood and pregnancy here? yes maybe idk) #maybe anon is expecting a drawing...? i'll see what i can do #anon ask #holpol

my birthday was so good yesterday! probably the best one i've had in years. 🥰

#boston is a pretty cool city actually #and the weather was perfect! #and i saw penguins and turtles and dwarf seahorses #and bought some fantasy books #and hung out with A Person and maybe see some possibilities there #i think it was a great birthday bc it wasn't just a 'oh here's this event solely to celebrate you' #and was more of a day where i just did things i wanted to do and enjoyed myself and the company that i chose #perks of being an adult...people tend to forget your birthday and don't think to throw you parties so you can make your own day plans #anyway! i'm going to relax so much today because i was on my feet for 8 solid hours yesterday walking around boston lol #might watch some SNW and definitely finish reading Elantris and just have a relaxing day #okay time to stop livejournaling my thoughts into tags lmao #ashlee talks

I've had it in my mind for a long time to create an updated reference for Mip, but man has art hated me lately. So I desperately latched onto a bit of hope when I was finally able to produce a decent sketch and carry it to the finished stage (especially before Mermay ended!). With that being said, please enjoy this drawing of my nervous little seahorse baby Mip ;u;

#mermay #mermaid #seahorse mermaid #seahorse #Mip #my art #Mer Anthology #I know the drawing itself isn't particularly impressive #but it's the first piece I've inked/colored in literal months #so I'm really proud of myself for taking it slow and seeing it through to the end ;__; #also hi yes I'm still alive #it's just been a very rough season for me #oc tag

Shhh he’s asleep

#Albert Wesker #Dead by Daylight #Resident Evil #dbd #my art #i wanted to see him as a seahorse so bad #I have never drawn a seahorse before u can tell #yeah i worked too hard on the tail i was NOT covering it up with his other arm!! #Sorry! improvising hehe

trying to capture the vibe of JennaMarbles singing "I'm a 32-year-old lady" in text form so I can have it on a t-shirt and wear it from my birthday this year until my birthday next year

#nothing I'm doing is fitting the vibe tho #I need that seahorse time can't you see I'm leisuring energy #jennamarbles #jenna marbles #vexic lives
