#the shapeshifter speaks

[anxiety-and-fandoms]

btw I’m OBSESSED with Gillion and Chip both saying goodbye to Jay by giving her a nickname related to their families

Gillion: “Go set some fucking fires, demigod” -> his ‘parents’ being a Sea God, Lunadeis and Aster

Chip: “better get moving, sureshot” -> The Black Rose pirates

they’re both calling her family in their own special ways.

that shapeshifter feel when you have to be careful regarding what media you consume because you know damn well you're going to imprint on something and it's going to turn into a new form/kintype that will last for the next... well, forever, actually.

So are we just playing “send Shima quick doodle prompts to shake off the rust”?

In that case, you can never go wrong with toothcup

AUGH...AUGUGHHG...

I haven't drawn them in YEARS thank you for this

Also like. I know initially my idea was that human Toothless could talk regularly like everyone else. But mute Toothless who can sign is also......so good......

This is Perry's fault for poisoning my brain /j

#HTTYD #How To Train Your Dragon #Hiccup #Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III #Toothless #Toothcup #Human Toothless #I actually DO have thoughts about this. #So this AU...I guess it is an AU now--Toothless and the other dragons can shapeshift between human and dragon form #Which is like. Considered a rarity. And a privilege for dragons #The only drawbacks is that they kinda stick out...they retain a lot of their dragon-like qualities #Which makes it tricky to blend in with humans if that is the goal. But most dragons with this ability manage (if they choose to do so) #It varies from dragon to dragon ofc. But Toothless is one of the few who just CAN'T speak as a human #He's tried. But it sounds like a garbled mess lol #Some of the other dragons have a much better grasp on the human language and how to actually speak #But it's cool bc Hiccup teaches Toothless sign and that's how they communicate #NOW. The difference between Perry and Toothless is that generally Perry is very quiet. Kinda comes with the territory of being an agent #Toothless on the other hand. He's very loud. Even if he's mute #I mean yes he CAN be quiet if he wants. Night Fury duh. He's very good at stealh #*stealth #BUT if he's not focusing on being sneaky he's actually quite rambunctious lol #He may not be able to talk! But he sure does make a lot of other noises!! Most very dragon-like!! #Hiccup unconsciously mimics Toothless every now and then. It is VERY cute #Shima arts #ANYWAY I'm done rambling now lol thank you for giving me the excuse to draw them <3333 #Doodles #Art #Digital art #shima-draws

Kosm has a human design, I don’t think I’ve ever mentioned or shown it before.

#Kosm is the literal manifestation of chaos so I thought it’d make sense for them to be a bit of a shapeshifter #I tend to stick to the worm-on-a-string to fit with Kos tho #Kos speaks

Shapeshifter sex is so fun because it ranges from

"I can look however you want!" *switches between masculine and feminine human forms*

to

Oh don't worry about the claws too much, it's the teeth you should be scared of 😉"

to

*Fucks you as a cloud, Zeus-style*

Bonus: Shapeshifters having a kinky night together could look like a literal stormcloud inside the bedroom

you might have thought the best bit of bg3 is all the hot, romanceable people with intriguing personal trauma but actually that's just the 2nd best thing. the best thing is being able to befriend and adopt almost? every animal/baby monster you come across and then PET THEM (you can throw a ball for the dog now and also summon him as a familiar, kinda like the cat in divinity! also i just like talking to the owlbear cub, it's soo cute, they added some more scenes with it from the EA)

#baldur's gate 3 #baldur's gate 3 spoilers #speak to animals still best skill #living my best druid life #baldur's gate 3 screenshots #screenshots #tav #owlbear #dog #3rd best thing is shapeshifting like not to be the non binary trope but this is my ideal fantasy powerset #i love how all the forms are useful too #like bear is usually best for combat but i got a lot of use out of the raven in the witch fight #and the cat is good for puzzles/exploration #haven't figured out a good use for the other forms yet but it's early #can you pet the dog #yes you can pet the dog and the owl bear #spoilers #bg3 #bg3 spoilers

I am not a baby!! (yes you are)

(Ao3) (Masterpost) (Previous) (next)

(Part nine)

He lied. he's not fierce, or dangerous! He's very small, scared, and would like to go home please, thanks!

What the fuck do you mean this guys a juvenile?!!

How big do these motherfuckers get?! Danny didn't want to know. Where there's a baby, a parent is usually nearby. Danny darted further into the tube, crouching with his knees pulled tightly to his chest. All he could do was hope this guy was stupid enough to forget they saw Danny. The PDA told a different story. A brain capable of both high intelligence and sentience doesn't mean they're friendly. Danny knew dozens, if not hundreds of sentient beings that were pricks. His entire school was full of them.

This could be a local checking in with the new neighbors, or it could be a pissed-off local ready to murder whoever invaded their space. The PDA said this guy's habitat is in deeper waters. How did he already manage to piss off the locals into pulling up to his house?! Did the peepers snitch? He'd been chasing them around an awful lot, but they'd been chasing him too! Ramming into him with their stupid sparkles that stuck to his skin. If he'd known they'd call in backup he'd have left them alone!

...No he wouldn't have.

Tap...Tap...Tap

"Go Away!" He shouted. The thought was nice but Danny was gonna have to raincheck on the welcoming party.

Tapping away at his PDA, Danny rushed to the window tapping tom was chilling at, fabricating a rod and curtains.

There! That should do it. Problem solved!

"..."

"Damian, what happened?" Dick called out.

Damian could only stare blankly at the now blocked-off tube. The baby's silhouette visible through the barrier.

"He's hiding," He hummed. "I'm going to check the other side,"

__________________

Danny walked away from the curtain, turning focus to sorting his storage. It mainly consisted of sorting rocks into different lockers. Any fabric material was used on the curtain. Keeping tabs on his materials was easy with the PDA, but it also made him realize he had no food or water. Dying of dehydration or starvation didn't sound like a good time.

He turned to the other window. As expected, his not-so-little visitor had his face pressed up against the glass. Claws rapping against the glass, Danny became concerned for the integrity of the seabase. Starting over wouldn't be that hard, but he didn't want to be forced to rebuild because a sea monster got tap happy.

Tap...Tap...Tap

That's it! Welcome party or not, he had to establish dominance!

"Damian, please, you're obviously scaring them," Father started, concern erupting through every string of the bond.

"You know how fragile they can be," It's true, all the hatchlings were pathetically fragile. There's no reason it wouldn't be the same for this one.

"Mine!" Damian didn't even get a chance to respond before teeth attempted to sink into his arm.

The baby, now out of the tube, was trying to bite him. His teeth too tiny to break through scales, though he still tried regardless. Upon discovering biting wouldn't work on him the hatchling began circling him.

"go way!" The baby charged at him, slapping him with his soft, clawless hands. Anything Damian said fell on deaf ears the baby either too young to receive telepathic messages or too young to understand them.

"I don't think he's scared. He's trying to attack me," Considering how many died from being unaware of their environments, a territorial hatchling was good for them. Except this hatchling greatly overestimated who he could take in a fight.

Deciding to humor the little guy, Damian dragged himself away from the baby's nest.

"I Win" The hatchling circled the area before it quickly forgot the fight and started chasing Peepers. Catching the fish with his teeth, the hatchling picked up salt rocks and cut up bits of coral tubes. The behavior was confusing, but the hatching seemed happy with himself, so Damian felt no need to interfere.

"I'm coming over there," Dick announced.

"I recommend against that," Not only were the shallows way too small to fit both of them in this form, but surely seeing two of them would freak the child out further. Dick's scales were like armor-plating. The baby would surely hurt himself trying to bite him,"

"But I wanna see the guppy," Dick whined.

Damian rolled his eyes as he continued observing from afar. The hatchling didn't eat the fish he caught, stuffing it away into the pouch on his back until it was full of fish and rocks before swimming back to his nest. Maybe he was like father? Hoarding an abundance of materials just for the fun of it.

Complex buildings like that must take a lot of materials to build and maintain. Not as complex in design as the precursor buildings, these creations wilted within a matter of years without constant maintenance. The buildings were intended for someone who knew how to take care of them, just like the rest of their tools.

He himself once wielded a deadly weapon left behind. Sharp as a sea dragon's claws, glowing a bright red that charred the flesh it sank into. Only useable in his second form, Damian had fallen in love with weaponry. The now dull, rusted blade lay somewhere in his nest. Hopefully, the baby could spare a knife or two. The ones he'd managed to make just weren't as smooth or sharp.

Hopefully, he could convince the child to bite Drake instead of him.

I know this was literally in one panel along time ago.But I loved it too much Not to ignore it-(that and I’m a huge Loki obsessor) Wade managed to Nail this universe Loki.All I wanna know is.Was Loki the bottom.

unfortunately it’s 9319 canon, as of tunnel o’ love. that wade exclusively bottomed with every single guy he’s ever been with, until peter.

[x]

wade rode loki. and used the horns as handlebars.

#good for them. good for them #sci speaks #I’d say that maybe they had some genderbending shapeshifting shenagigans. maybe. #but it’s crazy to imagine that Loki and Wade got up to multiple rounds. #but you know what. Why not.

South had returned, but that didn't really mean that he had found Spring. It could also mean that he had checked everywhere, found something that hinted towards her location, only to discover that it led him farther than he wanted to go alone.

Not because he was scared or anything, this 'wild raven' just preferred to keep an eye on them.

They gently grabbed his beak and playfully wiggled it with their hand. "Lemme write a note in case we're gone longer than we expected, wouldn't want the others to worry." They softly tell the bird, letting his beak go.

South shook himself in a display of mock annoyance at how he was handled, getting a chuckle out of his person.

They get up, lock their door, and take off their mask so they can see what they're writing. Then they grab a notepad from their desk as well as a pen, both were already there when they moved in to their room.

They usually used it to figure out a design for a carving, but today they were actually writing something in it. They flipped to an empty page and began.

----

Hey!

I went out to look for Spring, sorry if I worried you! I didn't want to make her wait any longer, I have no doubt in my mind that she was in a worse state than I was.

Chances are, if you're reading this, it's been a few days since I left. Which means that either she's farther out than I thought, or her wounds are more extensive than I thought.

I promise she'll be fine, it just might take a bit.

Don't worry about me either! I'm taking some of my weapons with me, and even without shapeshifting I'm fully capable of being a threat.. Or a nuisance, depending on the situation.

I mean, I can cover for Scout after all.

Jokes aside, I'm sure I'll be back soon!

They had hesitated over how to sign off, briefly considering putting their actual name down instead before shooting that down on the off chance that someone wouldn't realize it was them. It was entirely possible around here.

Instead, they chose the less used nickname.

With that out of the way, they got up from their desk and grabbed their blankets from their bed, folded them, and put them in the bag along with their pillow. They made an amused metal note of this likely being another example of 'Hub instinct' as Mal called it.

Once everything was ready, they put their mask back on and tilted their head in a way to tell South to come to them. Which the raven eagerly did, landing proudly on their shoulder and being very careful to not put pressure on any of their wounds. They then closed the window, unlocked the door, and walked through with their bag.

Distantly, they hoped no one would follow them.

BALDUR'S GATE 3 ➢ Orin's Role in The Dark Urge's Downfall

Do you remember now, Bloodkin? How you screamed as my knife slit your skull, your brain juices sticky and sweet? A little hole, big enough for the worm – your body a blood sac to feed it. The favourite of Bhaal turned meat puppet, strung up by the sinews and plucked by my hands.

do you think Gill ever thinks about episode 97’s Chip and Jay? The ones he couldn’t save? Do you think he feels guilty? That he failed them? do you think he ever gets the urge to try and go back again and save them, even if it risks his own demise? even if it risks him seeing their demises over and over and over again?

while technically i can shapeshift into anything i want, for me being a shapeshifter means shifting into different "versions" of myself.

some versions have kind eyes. some versions possess a vicious grin to frighten away the things that frighten you. sometimes i have six arms. my face can change from warm and inviting to terrifying in an instant. i am a living funhouse mirror.

i don't know. i'm too many things, too much for this human body.

I ended up being too lazy to edit the shitposts properly but I just need everyone to know that there are Multiple ships introduced in 97 that this could apply to is really funny to me. Someone on the writing team was into dilfs I think

I LOVE how you draw Zemmet like a sphinx sometimes. as in like, a mostly human head on a weird animal body. gives him fucked up uncanny creature vibes like he'd eat me if I can't solve his riddles or smthn.

YEAH I love fucked up dog creacures. I feel like since he has no motivation to pass as human he's like 50-90% dog mode at any given time
