Squad Goals, my entry for this year's tennocon community art showcase! Featuring me playing as Protea, and my friends playing as their mains, Kullervo, Mirage and Valkyr. I wasn't planning on posting this until tennocon itself but discord won't let me post the full image to my friend because of image size, so sharing it here so they (and now you) can see it early! :)

Could a city girl and a burly murmur fall in love?

[tethrajahrak]

yippeee!!!

[tethrajahrak]

quick warframe valentines.

[technorotting]

Finally got around to drawing my Operator, my drifter is soon to follow. I feel like I could have done better with the colour but I just wanted to have a tangible piece of him. Meet Polaris!

Very edgy teen with gender issues.

Got irreversibly corrupted by their time in the void in stasis, Lotus was worried about her child's extra arms and the drifter was like 'cool! extra drink holder!' upon meeting them but kiddo doesn't give a single heck. They don't actually have control of these extra arms and they probably aren't strong enough to hold the extra drinks.

Void exposure almost manifests in their freakishly blue glowing eyes.

Wally thinks they're friends but Kiddo remains under the thought that they have no friends except their mom and ordis which would be super embarrassing but Kiddo doesn't care because their mom kicks ass and ordis is.. well, ordis.

Their favorite frame is Protea, which they nickname 'Tea' (pronounced tea-ah.) They bonded with her over the whole 'stuck in the void thing', at least, the concept of it.

And that's it! I don't know if anyone will have any questions but if you do my inbox is open! I'm working on building myself back up to scratch on colouring after taking a break but after that I've got a follie, titania and lyon to colour! Also I'm going to work on a drifter piece before that.. >:)

I do appreciate all the support on my post about Marlow Trottie, but yall need to do that kind of thing for Black trans women while they're still alive too. That's actually more important in a lot of ways.

[rinsedrice]

The Moment of Clarity

[decompose1]

INTERSEX IS NOT:

- species that all have the same or both genitalia

- species/characters that can change their genitals to be whatever they want at will

- species/characters that change their genitals situationally

- aliens that can reproduce asexually or with anyone from the same species

INTERSEX IS:

- a person/animal/organism/character that is part of a species with two or more distinct sexes (at least within the social constructs of the species), who exists between these binaries (mixed, ambiguous, lacking, or incomplete genitalia, hormone differences, chromosome differences, or differences in/mixed sexual characteristics)

PLEASE for the love of g-d stop calling your alien species that has both genitals or a uniform set of genitals across the species ""intersex"". intersex people are tired of seeing this. it does not accurately describe intersexness at all. you can use the terms "monogenital" (for all members of the species having the same uniform genitalia) or "bigenital" (for all members of the species having both genitals)

[shehellonmyspawntilisister]

i think the actual scientific term for this is "hermaphrodite," which regarding human beings has some unsavory connotations but to all my fellow specevo nerds this is the word we use

[decompose1]

Please don't use this word for sentient species, or really any species. It is considered offensive by Intersex people no matter the use case because it is a slur. There has recently been a large push in biology to use other terms. Biologists are already adapting and finding new terms to use. You do not and should not ever need to use "hermaphrodite." Don't say that.

Instead, here are some terms currently being used/proposed:

- Cosexual (both sets of reproductive organs- in current use in biology and botany)

- Bigenital (both sets of genitalia)

- Unigenital (one singular set of genitalia, same across all of the species)

please use these instead for your fantasy creatures! "hermaphrodite" is a slur no matter what context. please help intersex people in the fight to remove a word that has a long, hateful, violent history- one tied to a lot of horrific medical abuse and death- from our vocabularies. thank you
