Forest Therian

Finally made a therian/alterhuman side account. Arctic fox, raccoon, beetle and Beringian wolf therian + shapeshiftkin and wingkin. 21 yo, any pronouns I guess

My teeth are too small and they’re not sharp enough.

Also I can’t growl or purr. I mean, I guess I probably could, but it wouldn’t be the same.

And my wings are gone.

Whyyyyyy

[creatureofthewoodsss]

Had a very wingkin dream yesterday. I was in a flying class for some sort of magical school, and they were teaching us how to fly properly, and I just knew immediately how to fly by instinct. Also I kept flying away from everyone to try diving for fish in the ocean instead.

[creatureofthewoodsss]

I miss my wings. A lot. I miss the freedom of flying most of all.

Sometimes I’ll see the horizon and imagine flying there.

God, I just miss flying so bad.

[creatureofthewoodsss]

It always bothers me when books have a character running away into the wild and then in the end they’re forced to come back to society. Like yes, here’s this character who has never felt at home where he is, so he runs away and finally finds a home he belongs in the wilderness! Oh but he’s not allowed to stay there because living in the wild is simply a Fantasy ™ and he must now come back to the Real World ™ now

Positioning myself in the perfect spot to where the warm water hits between my shoulder blades, where my wings meet my back.

New uncomfy wing feeling, they feel itchy and gross

Itchy isn’t really new, it’s happened a few times, but now they feel like they’re covered in dirt and sand and they’re all gross

Man I wish I could preen them

[creatureofthewoodsss]

I should make a nest on my bed again. Nice cozy nest. I miss my actual nest made of driftwood and moss and stuff but pillows are nice and fluffy too

[creatureofthewoodsss]

This might be completely incoherent, I have not slept well in days and am very Creature

Luckily just got my meds back so I can finally sleep

[creatureofthewoodsss]

Nest made :D

Sleep time

shoutout to "Imposter Syndrome" by Sidney Gish for being the alterhuman song ever

I feel like I’ve only complained about my wings on here, so here’s some things I love about them:

They’re really pretty! They’re like seagull wings, white and grey with a bit of black

Fluffy!!! If you could touch them they’d be super fluffyyyy

Preening <3 <3 sometimes they feel all itchy cuz I can’t actually preen them but if I could it would be so satisfying

Flying, duh. I can’t here cuz they’re not actually here, but if I could that would be the absolute best

And above all, they’re my wings and I love them a lot

[creatureofthewoodsss]

My wingssss

They need to stretchh

Ughhhh

[creatureofthewoodsss]

It’s funny how Creature I get when I’m not masking. Like, if I were to just stop masking in public I would probably just crawl under a table and stop talking. When I really let myself stop masking in private I tend to hide in my closet or under my bed because small spaces just feel safer and less overstimulating.

[creatureofthewoodsss]

Another thing I like about living as a human: getting up in the middle of the night to eat an entire bowl of frozen blueberries. Frozen blueberries are the best.

[creatureofthewoodsss]

Sometimes I’ll get lost in my memories of my wingkin life and then I’ll come across something I don’t remember and get really sad. I remember we got fresh water from the snow melt of the mountains, but I don’t remember whether we got it from the rivers or straight from the source. I don’t even remember my own name, or the language we spoke.

Someday I’ll go back there and I’ll finally remember my home.

Various picrews of my wingkin self

The first one is my favorite, it’s the most accurate

If only they had seagull wings

Nonhuman features I had/have as a wingkin:

Wings

(duh /j)

Talons!

Helpful in grabbing and holding onto slippery fish

3rd eyelids!

They’re like built in goggles/sunglasses, they keep out the salt water and help with the glare of the sun

Longer/clawed feet

They were kinda halfway between human and digitigrade feet/legs. We could still walk on our heals comfortably, but walking on toes is just more preferable for most of us

Also the skin on the pads of our hands and feet were tougher and more leathery

Bonus:

We could also lay eggs and we primarily ate raw fish and seaweed!

[creatureofthewoodsss]

I might’ve had webbing between my fingers and toes and hollow bones too, but I’m not sure
