For Munday, anonymously ask the mun something you want to know about them, their portrayal, or what they will/won’t write.
Especially if it’s something you’re too shy or afraid to ask off-anon.
(Admin note: If you reblog this from someone, try to send them something, even if it’s just a basic question. The mun will really appreciate it.)

The great orange ape moved silently through the branches of the redwoods. He was taking some time away from the colony for a while, to sit and reflect on how far he had come since the circus.
He could see San Francisco from here, or rather, what was left of it. Greenery had overtaken the stale concrete of the city, and Maurice pondered whether there were still humans living there, and if it would be safe to venture in there to gather resources.
“Ooh?”
A sound from the forest made him turn around. There was some sort of creature moving through the undergrowth just beyond his sight. What it was, he couldn’t tell, but he knew that it was large.
TORIKO
Relief from depression was the most important thing one could practice. She had been motionless for days, laying in her lair with the chains in the middle. Chichi had cared for her well enough, bringing her food and the occasional barrel when he found them. But now she was out alone, too tired to even be social when she’d left. She was feeling better now and felt the need to at least meet something else, give it a few sniffs, play with it a while. So it was great when she noticed a strange orange-ish blob in the trees, and realized it wasn’t another beast about to rip her face off. It was, in fact, a creature similar to a very, very hairy human with a blobby tummy and long arms. It was charming, in its own way. She looked up and flapped her notched-up ears, giving it a gentle coo. “Who are you?” she seemed to ask, though she spoke no words.
The great ape sat silently and watched as the creature approached him. He did not recognize it: and he knew just about every animal from his days in the circus. It was bigger than the elephants: far bigger. But it looked leaner than that and seemed to take the shape of a feline or canine. Somehow, Maurice was certain that it would not harm him.
He made a small cooing sound, outstretching his hand as the creature got closer. The orangutan made sure that his movements were slow and gentle, so as not to startle the animal. Looking into its eyes, he could sense the same intelligence and wisdom that he and his fellow apes possessed.
Maurice got up onto all fours on the branch, then he jumped off of the side, appearing to fall off. His large hand caught the branch and he hung there comfortably, tilting his head curiously. Hello.
TORIKO
Toriko watched, ears pressed forward and wiggling as Maurice seemed to fall from the branch. She jolted forward as if to catch him, but he caught himself before she could get there. His outstretched hand attracted her attention. It was so alike Mamoru, her friend, her adopted child - now far away, among his people. Her nostrils flared as she leaned forward, carefully pressing her nose into his palm. The skin was leathery and warm like a dog’s hardened paw, though it seemed soft underneath. Now that her face was close, there were scars clearly hidden under the smooth feathers of her face, and and her right eye seemed slightly more closed than the left - but only ever so slightly.
She let out a heavy breath, stirring the fur of Maurice’s belly. She seemed entertained and promptly gave him a hard nuzzle, all too used to Mamoru’s ability to get used to her massive motherly nonsense.

/Like this post for a starter with Maurice the Orangutan from Planet of the Apes!
How is life together?
Chichi: Life is wonderful with Toriko around. She’s been very quiet ever since Master went silent. We wander around the Nest freely together, where she shows me places that I imagine were important to her, but can’t fathom why. Sometimes we get other tricos, too, and that’s quite nice - especially seeing how many are doing well after the Fall.
But, you see, sometimes we have to stop, and let her rest. She has gone through so much! Some days she just wants to stay in the quietness of our den, and I bring her whatever she wants - food, water, company, comfort, silence. I imagine sometimes her life catches up with her, and she needs the time to think about it all.
In total: I think our lives are quite nice. Save for this sore horn!
IF YOU ARE OKAY WITH ICONLESS ROLEPLAYS REBLOG THIS SO YOUR FOLLOWERS KNOW !!
like as much as i love icons and a good psd, sometimes its just tasking to do. and not everyone has great resources. so if you’re okay with having threads with no icons, please reblog this so that people know you’re okay with it. i feel like roleplayers today are too focused on the aesthetics and won’t follow people who use base icons or even none at all. it’s not about icons, but about the writing !!
You must forgive her. She’s having a tough time.
Hi! Welcome to a new askblog called “Ask the Guardians!” this is a little blog centering solely on the tricos from The Last Guardian, almost primarily Toriko (the main trico) and Chichi (the “evil” trico). This includes spoilers for The Last Guardian!!!
Feel free to ask any questions you’d like for either of them! Each ask will be answered differently depending on what is asked: either with a sketch, a colored drawing like the above, or just with words. Generally, simpler questions will have less detail put in.
You can also feel free to send in roleplay starters if you’d like!! Those are always welcome!
