no, you don’t need to wear your mask/tail to school.
i wish young nonhumans didn’t feel compelled to be ‘out’ at school, especially when it’s a dangerous environment. i keep seeing posts along the lines of “wore my tail/mask to school! people berated/teased/put their hands on me, but it’s ok”.
no, it’s not.
like.. i understand a mask or a tail can be a very validating thing for some people. and i’m not saying NO ONE should wear them at schools. but i just keep watching this mounting trend of young therians insinuating you need some physical accessory or to do quads to be a ‘real’ nonhuman. and then it leads to things like this and it makes me incredibly sad.
i’d known i was alterhuman since late elementary school, actually. it’s a huge part of my life even now, years after graduation. there wasn’t a reason for it to be brought up, so i never did. it was a closely guarded secret to me, but it didn’t feel like a weight i was carrying. i always thought “no one needs to know i’m an animal if it jeopardizes my safety. so, oh well”.
“but, how will people know that i’m an animal?”
they probably will. they probably already do.
i was the designated ‘animal’ person my entire school career despite not ever handling animals in front of anyone. if there were pets, lost wild animals (baby rabbits, birds, lizards), or sometimes even loose livestock that got onto campus, it was always me who had to go tend to them.
everyone wanted me in their group in environmental science. if a project called for animal illustrations, the same thing would happen. it was certainly weird because i was also a ‘weird kid’ and not especially desired to be around outside of that, lol. but i was never harassed for it. it made me feel very validated, actually.
i had fun during gym running and fiercely destroying the opposing team in field hockey. i taught everyone which plants were okay to forage (and we snacked on them when we had to sit on the lower field for practice). every day i was hyperaware of the limbs i had that weren’t quite there. friends noticed my ears twitch and my nose wiggle at certain stimuli. i felt nice walking on two legs. i felt nice because i felt animal and i didn’t have to prove it to anyone.
really like… just do what makes you happy. i admire the bravery it takes to so earnestly wear your identity on your sleeve like that. that’s very impressive. however, there is NO obligation to do anything like that if you understand that there will be a reaction that poses a threat to you.
i want our kids to be safe, too. you don’t have to feel dysphoria over being discreet. sometimes it’s the safest option. and sometimes, that can be really fun, too.
study everything you can about your ‘type. wikipedia and animalia are good resources. ramble about them to anyone who will listen. jokingly refer to yourself as one in friend spaces. wear discreet clothes that remind you of your ‘type. find a nice private place outside where you can run and explore and look at plants and smell the air and feel like yourself. but by no means do you have to prove yourself. you know you.

When it comes to meeting new people, I am very much like a dog:
New people should be introduced at a neutral location. If it is my house (territory), I am hostile. They are not yet approved and so I dislike them more. If it is their territory, I am skittish. I do not feel safe in the space of a person I do not know.
New people should be introduced at a neutral time. Please do not drag them along to any established events. I will feel like they are encroaching and I will resent them.
Always announce that you are bringing someone. Do not show up with a stranger without telling me. I am very wary of outsiders and I will not be able to relax.
I really do have that abused dog energy.

this is a wierd question maybe but has a medical professional ever said anything at all about quadrobics?
i just know that in human pup safety courses they specifically dedicate a lot of time talking about wrist and hand injuries you can give yourself related to not playing properly and not using any wrist protection or support. MMA gloves are one of the most basic humanpup gears that they frequently stress is the Most important piece of gear you have because it's basically armor. and in humanpupplay, there is no running and jumping and parkour-type shit; youre just on the floor walking around or wrestling another dog. if its so easy to break your wrists doing that, imagine how easy it is to break your wrists with absolutely no protection whatsoever, running and jumping around?
youtube
(video from Gpup Alpha who is a humanpup educator AND doctor!)
iirc one of the entire points of the sport is to do it without protection to show off how adaptive or agile your body is. and honestly i think this is really terrible. this is a 1 way ticket to completely fucking up your wrists. again - if its easy to fuck up your wrists just by walking on your knuckles and knees, its even easier to do that when youre running and jumping and slamming your entire weight down onto your wrists without protection or support
i feel bad not having a real conclusion to this post. i want to say "go buy MMA gloves, go buy wrist support, go watch humanpup safety videos" but i am also not a medical professional and i have no idea what would work best here as protection against injury or longterm strain. maybe i'll say you should check in with a doctor before starting quadrobics and see what they recommend for wrist support because SOMETHING has to be better than forcing your entire body weight onto your hands and wrists this way (a fragile structure which has 8 bones btw!!)
be careful with your body. i dont care if you hate your body or do not identify with it. it is still a delicate machine that carries you through your life!!

It's funny to think that when I was a kid, people would say stuff like "they will grow out of it when they grow up" about younger alter/nonhumans. Because I'm an adult now and all I grew out of was hating myself for my alterhumanity. I love being alterhuman, I grew more comfortable with my identity as I got older, and I learned to love this part of me despite people thinking it was something to be outgrown or something shameful. I just think it's a little funny how wrong those people are and that I can be happy as I am while they wallow in negativity

thinking about werewolves
werewolves that find comfort in the moonlight. werewolves who adore the sunlight. werewolves with ptsd from transforming. werewolves being overjoyed after their first transformation. werewolves being open about their fears and loves in their lycanthropy and finding solace in others. turning another as a sign of love, trust, and consent. full moon ceremonies. werewolf body language. werewolf slang blending with human slang. humans who grow up in a pack of werewolves and being practically identical to them. the first time a werewolf is welcomed into their pack. packs of all kinds. hippie packs of werewolves travelling across the country in a van way too small for all of them. a small town gas station run by the local werewolf lady who’s ears perk up and smiles when you walk in. elder werewolves. retirement homes for werewolves. elder werewolves playing and spending time with their grandcubs. werewolves with control over their transformations and live as a constant mix of human and wolf. werewolf coats, mannerisms, traits, and forms differing depending on where they live in the world. city dwelling werewolves. countryside werewolves. backpacking werewolves finding entire towns filled with werewolves and packs and realising that yes, they can find home exactly as they are. werewolf safe havens. famous werewolves using their influence for progressive change. a human and werewolf finding love. cubs playfighting with the human kids in the neighbourhood. werewolves with huge families and all kinds of siblings and elders and cubs. werewolf families having weekly game nights and dinners with their human neighbours. werewolf trait genetics. cubs who have frail fur and short nails and babble instead of bark. cubs who are furry and have fangs and claws and snouts and shrill little howls. werewolf siblings where one appears fully human and the other looks like the family dog and they don’t even notice a difference. coed human and werewolf schools. the football team populated by werewolves. the track team winning national championships every year. the spring play of Beauty and the Beast winning the community vote for best costume design. drama kid werewolves painting sets and getting acrylics and oil paints in their fur. recess being the preschool cubs favourite time of the day—right after lunch of course. night classes for werewolves and insomniac human students. one day the English teacher comes in half transformed and just sighs and calls it a movie day. prom being won by a werewolf and human couple. werewolf outreach groups to help those recently turned. search and rescue werewolves. war dog werewolves. werewolf physical and mental therapists. werewolf astrologists. werewolf clinics. werewolves consenting to their bodies to be used for scientific research when they pass. organ donor werewolves. werewolf scientists working to discover their true origin. hormone therapy for werewolves who find it difficult to transform or those who need help controlling their transformations. werewolf summer camps. werewolf sled teams. land owners who are both the grounds dogs and the ranchers. werewolf herding dogs. werewolves who grow out their fur then cut it to make coats for werewolves who’ve lost their fur. werewolves who carry the fangs of their deceased with them. werewolf bones laid to rest next their human mate in graves thousands of years old. tombs of packs and families in pristine condition. oil paintings of packs hundreds of years old. werewolf funeral traditions. discovering that multiple influential poets, archaeologists, leaders, scholars, scientists, etc. in the past were werewolves. werewolf and human history being intertwined for millennia. drawings and scriptures and proverbs of large speaking wolves living alongside the humans depicted. myths and stories and tales and passages about werewolves. times in history where humans and werewolves were virtually indistinguishable. the oldest known cave drawings full of massive paw prints placed purposefully and lovingly right next to human hand prints. werewolves. <3

Does anyone else bristle when they feel threatened? It happened to me for the first time today and it was weird. I felt fur from the base of my neck to the middle of my back in one long, straight line. Wearing a shirt felt weird lol.

Voidkin moodboard
themes of darkness/voids, claws/hands, eyes
Tumblr media
voidkin moodboard with themes of darkness/liminality/eyes/hands and void ofc!
enjoy friends of the void!
-mono
[image description:
a moodboard with 9 images.
image one (top left): a shot of two coal black taloned arms reaching towards the sky. it’s a black so dark it’s difficult to make out the exact definition. at around midway along the forearm, the blackness is broken up into veins, and pale skin continues along the arm.
image two(middle left): a hallway that's so pure black, that you cant actually see almost any of it. a single, bright while light far down the hallway starkly illuminates a small portion of it, showing a tiled ceiling and shiny tiled floor, with stark white walls, before the hallways is once again plunged into absolute darkness, no end in sight
image three (bottom left): a pale hand that almost looks a bit like its being overtaken by the venom symbiont from spider-man. it becomes a shiny, twisted, coal black almost slimy or leathery looking taloned hand with incredibly long fingers and piercing looking black claws.
image four (top middle): a viewpoint from the ground looking directly up. the sky is pure black and spindly branches of trees in pure white reach up to the sky
image five (middle middle): several scribbly, messy inky black figures with shining white eyes on a pure white, detail less background
image six (bottom middle): a swirling vortex that gets darker the farther it goes, with the closest area to the viewer being a midtone grey, that eventually fades into pure black.
image seven (top right): a mostly white image with "tears" in it like paper, revealing an inky darkness with many white eyes peaking out.
image eight (middle right): a hand with a tattoo on it of swirly, messy, sort of sketchy or inky black lines, with many many eyes peaking out of the darkness.
image nine (bottom right): a pure black, with slightly lighter staticky grey background. there is nothing else.

Requests open!!!

weird how lots of angelkins feel bad about being lower ranked and more human looking angels. I thought it would be the other way around before I was looking at angelkin Tumblr. It's funny cause I'll see a guardian angel wishing they were a seraph and here I am, a seraph wishing I was a guardian angel.
