yaaay growth post's done! yippee!!

was originally gonna have only one image but I suck ass at writing so I did some extra images to help :)

angels have 5 main stages in growth: egg/pouchling, newborn, imp(toddler/child), adolescent, and adult. because they can be such high maintenance(ESPECIALLY when young), young angels are usually raised by a group or community rather than specific parental roles.

putting the details on each growth stage under the cut because it's long as fuck :3

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EGGS/POUCHLINGS

on average, an angel will spawn over 30 eggs at a time, with only a few being successfully fertilized. the fertilized eggs absorb the others as they grow and eventually hatch. these babies are yet to develop more prominent sail bones, calcium teeth, and wing membranes. they also have an extra nail that serves as both extra defense against their hatchmates and as an egg tooth equivalent. once pouchlings hatch, they immediately start tearing into their hatchmates as that's how they get the nutrients required to grow strong enough to leave the pouch. this can be avoided by removing the eggs just before hatching and transferring them to an artificial pouch instead, as some modern angels aren't usually too happy to let their children shred eachother in utero. the pouch will fill with liquid that allows the pouchling to breath upon hatching.

NEWBORNS

newborns are essentially just bigger pouchlings with more wing membranes and thicker skin. they still reside in the pouch most of the time but they can now leave to feed and breathe, as the liquid they lived in as a pouchling will drain as it's no longer needed. if they were allowed to cannibalize in development, pouchlings will be much more aggressive even outside of the pouch compared to hatchmates grown in an artificial pouch.

IMPS

a newborn is considered an imp when they grow too big to fit in their parent's pouch, and as a result, are more active amongst the other imps in their community. it's around this time that both the third nail they had as a pouchling falls off and their wing membranes fully grow in, although they won't be able to fly properly until the fatty layer surrounding the wing membrane grows in. imps aren't quite as bitey as their younger selves but are now very curious about their environments, investigating all they can see and babbling to their guardians.

ADOLESCENT

adolescent is the final major stage of development, with anything after this point in time being minor or drawn out over a much longer time period. an angel's calcium teeth finally grow in at this stage, with the keratin teeth being pushed forward to accommodate. other changes include reproductive organs developing and flight membranes finishing their formation. angels will now be experimenting in choir-forming and other social activities, as well as dressing up and accessorising as a form of aesthetic individualism.

#WOOOO BABY POST #FUCK this was a lot of writing #might edit it a bit if it reads funny or smth later but as of right now its fuckingggggg GOOD ENOUGH LOL #owo whats this #angel tag!!! wahoo #spec bio #speculative biology #speculative evolution #alien species #uhh i think thats it lol #uhh ik some of the shit this post entails is a lil freaky so if unwant me to tag anything so u can block it or smth lemme know #otherwise ill just leave it alone for now #ALSO yaaaay its 10 minutes till midnight im fucking EEPY #guts tag for guts stuff yippee

I wanted to see your LCSYS take on the differences in the prisoners' uniforms in the Milgram Hallucination event:

The outfits all zip in the front, even those that wouldn't in the art. Shugo wears a coat instead of a cape. Ryota doesn't have half of his uniform tucked in. Minami is wearing a skirt under her costume. (Hi Nott!) Maybe I missed some.

Hmm, that's a neat detail! Because presumably they'd have their uniforms on hand, and they should just wear those. The fact that they had to create new ones leads to a few possibilities: 1. Milgram didn't realize what a hit the songs would be, and figured they wouldn't need these random straightjackets anymore. They got rid of them after the experiment, 2. Milgram gave the prisoners their uniforms to keep and they're the ones that threw them out, not caring to remember their life of restraints, or 3. Milgram does actually face some real-world consequences for being incredibly shady, and all their possessions are currently being investigated by the government. I personally think option 3 is funniest, and enjoy picturing Jackalope planning a live concert and selling merch while simultaneously trying to cover up a huge potential scandal/legal battle behind the scenes asdfsdf.

Amane's case is slightly different, since hers has to do with her own clothes. I like to think it'd be a sign of her leaving her old life behind and starting over. When Mahiru takes her in, (with Amane's permission,) she completely replaces her wardrobe to remove any painful memories that may be attached. There are a few things she liked too much to part with, maybe including her purple hat :) When it's time to perform, Jackalope offers to find her a skirt just like her original, but she prefers to do without it.

#milgram #lights camera sing your sins #thank you for the question! #the problem with option 2 is actually do think some of them would keep the uniform as a reminder to themselves to be better #i can really see shidou and kotoko putting it somewhere prominent so theyre constantly reminded not to go down the wrong path #maybe even fuuta #and i think mahiru would keep it for more sentimental reasons lol #but yeah i still like the last option LOL #'oh uhh sorry we cant find the uniforms at the moment 🤷🐰 looks like we'll just get you guys new ones haha' *glares at the government #official currently archiving each uniform as evidence* #and i love the thought of amane making an effort to leave her own past behind! obviously mahiru doesnt make her cut all ties #but she can remove some of the more painful things #and if thats the school uniform skirt that amane was often punished in/committed her murder in then i definitely think it would go #amane momose #jackalope

buddy pal friend!!

#hoo boy #the daycare attendant #fnaf sun #fnaf daycare attendant #uhh #i think thats it? #anyways happy with this :]c #also if this doesnt show up in the tags can someone tell me lol #comfort character 💛 #<- hehe :] #sheep scribbles

[b4kuch1n]

been scribblin with the dip pens to prepare for inking the next comic (yuuto⏫’s “origin story” kind of basically) and wow turns out I can do anything I want forever

yuuto’s new friends names of amy and linh >:]c

#UTAU #sawayama yuuto #bakuspecial #[comic tag pending] #I'll be drawing about just the beginning of this whole plot this time round. but boy oh boy if I were paid to serialize this!! #well even if I wont. I will hopefully get to chip away at it a bit at a time. over the next uhhhhh ten years #in another news. I think somethings up with the dip pens. about anything comes out looking good with them #its scary!! I kept looking at my sketches like no way these are gonna work out. but I'll do it for the practice hour #and then I do it and it always turns out pretty good. what the hells!!! thats weird!! thats kinda scary I like it!!! #and like I'm absolutely not even that good with a dip pen yet!! 1/Ive just had these for uhh. two days. and 2/my hands are NOT steady #its why u see me undo and redo a line 298473987 times twice a half hour. it was caught on stream multiple times #but!! the dip pen's making me commit to a line. and also I'm slowly internalizing that anything'd come out okay with them #as long as I have a sketch. boy oh boy is freehanding with these hard #its so. idk its so nice!! its so fun. somehow a lot less pressure than the usual stuff I do lol #I cant wait to really get into drawing this comic... I cant wait to force all of u to look at yuuto&co #you WILL see and hear my baby boy #dskjfhsjk Im so glad the senpai lets me do this. I mean even if he doesnt I will do it anyway. its just gonna suck #but Im so happy I get to do this with him actually #hehehe >:]c

Getting better is scary. Every time I gain something, I have even more to lose. Anytime I start to believe I didn't deserve all the things that happened to me, it just hurts more. And what's more than that, I'm scared of how far it will go. Like what if I don't stop at just "healthy" self worth? What if I become egotistical and entitled? Already, I've started expecting so much more from people and it scares me. Every step I take to get better is a tentative one

#my version of expecting more from people btw is like uhh... if a friend takes me on a walk to the gas station #i might assume they will buy something #...just a little treat. a little snacky snack for my good behavior lol #but nah that seems crazy entitled to me actually #like anytime i catch myself expecting that im like 'wtf?? i dont deserve that! i need to do better' #and i think thats reasonable right? like just because someone wants to go somewhere with me #doesnt mean they wanted to buy me something >_<

revamped a few things regarding gut stuff + a taste of angels' fuckass technology heehee ^^

angels have a completely liquid brain thats contained in a thin membrane, supported by a sheet of cartilage thats absolutely PACKED with nerve endings. having a liquid brain allows them to take a lot more damage to the head without fear of brain damage. theyre fucked if their skull gets pierced however, as once air gets in their skull, the membrane will pop and send brain soup everywhere. luckily for them though, their skulls are both thick as hell AND have a layer of fat and muscle to pierce through first.

their sails can fold down now, as well as their front teeth now being able to move similarly to a parrot beak(LOOK UP PARROT SKULLS THEYRE FUCKIN WILD) allowing them to grip onto prey better. angels eat rocks in order to strengthen their bones so i changed up the coloration of their bones to reflect that. depending on what minerals they eat, angel bones can vary in colour as the colour of the original rock gets mixed in with the original calcite bones. old angels will also eat gemstones and other sparkly minerals so that when they die, their bones(mainly the skull) will be extra sparkly for funerary reasons. some angels will eat gemstones regardless of age just because they like the idea of their bones being extra pretty, even if no one can/will see them.

ever since angels figured out how to harness the processing power of their liquid brains, theyve been using it in almost all technology ever since.

rather than writing things down, angels will use this liquid to store information in a computer-like fashion, and by sending off specific signals into it they can program the liquid to do just about anything. depending on the amount used, these "brains" can record and store memories, open doors, pilot ships, and even replicate and store whole entire people! as long as they have a constant stream of nutrients and regular monitoring, these brains can live almost indefinetley. in order to activate/talk to it, you must be touching any exposed part of the membrane. the tech may not work correctly with other aliens however, due to it being so closely connected to angel biology.

brains that have a consiousness integrated into it are called BUIs(bio-unital intelligence), and are the angels' equivalent to sentient AIs. not gonna go too much into detail about them now since i wanna make a separate post on them, but theyre often created to do more complicated tasks, such as governing highly populated ships and running ground settlements, but theyre also made when an angel's body has been life-threateningly damaged and they dont want to die just yet. this is only done if said nearly-dead angel agrees to it beforehand, as the integration is both painful AND permanent. BUIs dont need to be touched directly to function, and will perform tasks independently of other angels.

gif stills under the cut like usual :3

#AUUUUGH ive been wanting to do a big post again but the cold has been absolutely BEATING my ass whadda hell #owo whats this #angel tag!!! wahoo #speculative biology #spec bio #guts tag for guts stuff yippee #xenobiology #uhh i think thats it lol #yeah turns out coming up with unique ways of intepreting organs is kind of difficult when youve only got google at ur disposal so dont- #-expect my bullshit science to make sense teehee #felt bad about not adding any blockable tags for stuff so im gonna go through my art stuff and tag the more gorey stuff #might redraw the full skeleton but not much will really change aside from some minor differences so maybe later

[cfrog]

I wonder if this guy ever wonders 🤔

#pat the scarecrow #my ocs #my art #d&d character #uhh ya thats the only tags i have for him. #doodles #sorry i love to draw him stressed. i think its funny with a silly little guy is full of fear :3 #i wouldnt call this a 'redesign' but i did mess w his design a bit here n there. mainly i made his hair fluffier and then blonder. #also im more confident about drawing hats lol

Marrassurma, God of Death (and Dreams) from The Abyssal

bonus Sol bc the hand kiss scene is cute

#the abyssal #the abyssal if #interactive fiction #mine #*23 #art #marrassurma #i really want to do the pestilence thing but like. why would marrassurma do that he likes humanity + the human world :/ #btw if u think marrassurma is edgy i originally thought abt marrasverisurma lol. but i was like thats way too long dude im sorry #it doesnt mean november death btw it means killing of an omen (of death) or being killed by one. google's stupid #finnish lesson ahead ig. surma can be a violent death/a killing/voluntary manslaughter/a tragic accidental death/the destroyer of something #or a poetic way to say kill. surma can ALSO be a very hard obstacle or opponent or a personification of death when w/ certain chs #and marras is just any omen of death/person who brings death/person who's about to die/any dead thing/a ghost. yeah uhh dw about it #so marrassurma can technically mean a combination of any of these but i'm using it as like. the one i explained before lol #why am i even explaining this. maybe bc im cursed with the ability to talk endlessly abt stupid shit i think is interesting

[shepards-folly]

not tagging this properly cuz its just concept sketches but I have a bad habit of deleting my art and I like these first concept doodles so well up they go

#shep arts #i didnt really do any color balancing for these first pass designs so ragh not 100% on the colors but i like these 2 #I did do winged designs for everyone this go around but tbh finley and florence might end up wingless #i really like them as just a deer/faun and a cat hybrid respectively #florence would absolutely wear like cosplay wings though…. like specifically a pair that he made himself thats shitty but he’s proud of. #gonna be honest I don’t know shit about actual like colorza lore or whatever besides their names. I just went insane abt the concept lol #i love designing pretty much the same guy several times… #anyway other notes for future design attempts… ‘m considering making frey a dragon… #i do like the concept of skeletal wings or idk i think I usually draw them with clipped wings cause something something headcanon #cant remember why exactly but my designs are inconsistent as hell anyway lol #uhh considering giving phil some angel stuff… cause phin is a demon and I do love things like that… somthjn somethin opposites #ACTUALLY WAIT I HAD A WHOLE THING ABOUT THE OPPOSITE COLOR ONES #angel n demon / good n bad / peace and violence (<- phil and phin) but i think both of them get to be morally complex as a treat so yeah #black cat and yellow bird (<- florence and fletcher) [i think they had sun and moon imagery at one point too??] #and uh tbh i forgot finley and flynns… i think it was something about like nature (finley) and technology (flynn) #frey and pheo… death and life… decay and bloom… ugh their colors aren’t opposites but out of the rainbow they’re both outliers

me if i was in succession and slayed idk (technically lost all my whimsy [jean jacket with 20 buttons and patches and also black/pink hair] but that's fitting for corporate america)

#id love to add my actual hair color i think itd be funny. but also that simply doesnt fit imo #if logan roy saw me. a guy. with pink hair. he'd have a heart attack and die like he could not grasp the idea of a trans guy liking pink #.txt #idont have a tag for my inserts. i mean ive already shared what my main one is. its that but with normal hair lol #Ok Actually the hair style on the right is like 95% accurate to mine but pretend its symmetrical. its important to me that thats known #also im like. 5'6. i'm making all my self inserts tall. i need it #self insert tag #*I GUESS.jpg* #these dont have eye colors its uhh hazel #s/i: succession

tw for like. food issues and subsequently weight talk below

its gotten so much harder to eat anything at all. i think ive almost lost my entire appetite. im never hungry throughout the day and i only eat something because i know i have to. im down to one and a half meals (if that) a day now. i feel so sick constantly. and its so embarrassing when i cant eat anything in front of my friends because then i look weird being the only one. i get so anxious about throwing up that i never want to eat anything. a few people have told me ive lost weight (i dont really see it but some of my pants have gotten looser. i lost 20 pounds last year). i really wish i was on medication for this because its genuinely made my life so much harder to manage.

#ok wellll uhh thats all. #ill probably delete this tmrw but i was at a bday dinner thinking about this lol #tw #i have no idea what to tag bc this genuinely is not an ed thing
