AHAGHHGSAD???? 3K???????? WHAT !!!!!!!!
i am actually like,,, speechless,, y'all are so awesome <33
in honor of 3k, i'm doing a dtiys !!!! rules and prizes under the cut :)
the image is kinda just a guide !! you can draw it or something completely different, as long as it involves the aberration turtles. if you can't draw, you could also write about them!
for now i'm planning on doing one prize and having the winner be randomly selected, like a raffle !! if i get enough writing entries, than i'll randomly select a artist and writer winner, and do a prize for both of them :)
you can draw/write as much as you want, but submissions will not stack (assuming i stick with the raffle idea)
please make sure to mention me and use the tag #rutabaga3kdtiys so i can see it :DD
deadline is november 30th!! hopefully that's plenty of time to go wild with these silly turtles :)
here's the image with no text !!

Part 5 of the Linked Universe Winged Au! In the last poll you guys all voted for him so here he is, Wild!
<<< Previous Next >>>
As always, there has to be a silly little bird fact to start off with so did you know that the American Kestrel is the smallest falcon in North America and only weighs about 3-6 ounces which is the equivalent of 34 pennies? This fact isn't actually important lore wise for this headcanon, but it did remind me of the one post where someone discovered that BoTW Link weighs approximately 8.5 apples.
Anyways, as you may have guessed, Wild is heavily based on the American Kestrel because of their beautiful plumage and their unique behaviors and characteristics.
An example of one of these behaviors is that American Kestrels are known for capitalizing on favorable soaring conditions, such as mountain updrafts and thermals while traveling. In this headcanon, Wild shows this characteristic primarily through his use of Revali's Gale and his tendency to make fires in order to more easily take flight. While his methods are incredibly effective, they do also tend to scare the rest of the group the first time he does them. After all, it's not everyday you see someone make a fire and then run headfirst into it just to take off.
While this specific habit of his may appear to just be a funny little quirk that he just does because he's WILD, it's actually a result of his near death experience with Guardians. The scars on his face and body may be clearly visible to everyone around him, but the damage done to his wings is actually far less noticeable. His various injuries and scars actually have a major impact on his ability to take off and effect his stamina needed to maintain flight for long periods of time. Because of this, he tends to use the aforementioned methods to aid his flight or oftentimes simply chooses to leap off high surfaces and glide rather than attempt to take flight.
However, despite having difficulties with the initial takeoff and his struggles to maintain flight for long periods of time, he's actually very adept and capable of fighting in the air. The way he fights allows him to deliver sharp, agile, and accurate killing blows to his enemies in a way that others describe as, "Witnessing time seemingly slowing down for everyone but him." In other words, he's a real force to be reckoned in once he's finally airborne.
Anyways, there's more I could explain but that's all for now folks! As always, kudos to all those who read all that lore dump and thank you again for always being so kind and supportive! All your words of encouragement always inspire me to worker harder! Thank you all and please feel free to reach out with any questions or requests for who or what you would like to see next!
P.S. After much encouragement I did recently make a TikTok account where I'll try to be posting regularly! Feel free to check it and my Twitter out at sass_squat3! Thank you all again for your support! :D
