Echoing Cloud Break

May you echo through the clouds like a flash of lightning! I’m here to find myself and show myself off to the world. Therian? Age regressor? LGBTQ? Who cares! I also want to be a safe space for others trying to find themselves in my experiences.

Forgot to post yesterday, too tired after hiking and tourism ing lol. I love being out in nature and feel closer to being myself than I have in a long time!

Camping! Ate sooooo many hot dogs 🤤

[echoingcloudbreak]

Guys I’m so excited!! I get to go camping this weekend and I love going on adventurous little trips. Hopes I get to stick my head out the window (probably won’t… but maybe!)

I think it’s past time for an Agere post. I don’t know much about this community and other than involuntarily regressing a few times I haven’t had much experience with it personally. My only source of information has been fanfics and tumblr. I’ve got questions lol

A.) how do you find your age range? Do you just have to go with it and see or can you predict it before hand?

B.) how much control can you lose? The handful of times I’ve regressed I can pull myself out of it fairly easily but I’m someone who’s afraid to let go

C.) how do you find a cg? Most of what I’ve seen there are far more littles than cgs and people rarely advertise themselves as such

D.) how do you tell other people? I know you don’t have to but it seems like a nice thing to do I guess?

E.) how do pacifiers work, can you use baby ones or do you have to find adult ones? Same with a lot of other baby/toddler gear, sippies, diapers/pull ups? Any info is great

F.) anything else I should know?

Feel free to ask your own questions in the comments as well, I probably have the same ones lol

[echoingcloudbreak]

I discovered I was a therian in 2021-2022 and kinda faded out of the community at the end of 2022. Now in the big 26 I’m making a come back and I’m realizing just how much of myself I’ve forgotten and it’s fun when tumblr will give me posts and communities that are like a slap in the face wake up call, like how my border collie self is or has the intelligence to be a service dog! (That’s from today, I swear there are more lol)

[echoingcloudbreak]

I need a kickstarter to get myself going in the mornings and I get that by leaving the house, any quest ideas for me? (I’m project oriented and like to go places for a purpose so I need to make a purpose lol) they can be as simple as “find a cool rock” or “go somewhere you’ve never been before”

[echoingcloudbreak]

What am I if I just don’t care about pronouns? Call me what you’d like/what fits? I’m afab but recently got called a father/dad of a group and really felt like it fit. I don’t feel really attached to any pronouns though. I would’ve felt the same way to be called a mom or parent. Idk if that makes sense but say what you will on it. Maybe gender fluid? But it’s not like “oh I feel more masculine today” (if you haven’t caught on I kinda just ramble on these lmao)

[echoingcloudbreak]

Reblogging this just to keep y’all up to date. I’ve done some research into this and have found cis-GNC (gender non-conforming). It might not be forever but I’d like to try it out. I know sexually/physically I’m afab and don’t feel like that needs to change but my gender/social standing I don’t really care about :D

Please use any/all pronouns

Non-Human Ask Game

For non humans, therians, links, and everyone in between or outside of that!

A.) Do you have any media that makes you feel more connected to your type?

B.) How did you figure out what your type was? Was the process long or have you always known?

C.) Do you like your type outside of being one? Why or why not?

D.) Does being nonhuman impact any part of your identity in terms of sexuality, gender, etc.?

E.) What are your most common instincts/urges, if any at all?

F.) What’s a part of your therian/non human identity you wish you could elaborate on/talk about more often?

H.) Do you like compliments that address you as your type? If so what are they?

I.) What’s the best experience you’ve had in person regarding being non human?

J.) How open are you with being non human?

K.) What’s an aspect of being non human that you don’t think gets talked about enough?

L.) Do you feel connected to the same/similar habitats/ecosystems as your type?

M.) Do you collect anything in relation to your type(s)?

[echoingcloudbreak]

A.) I personally don’t but I’d love to try sheep herding videos. Also, if you know the game penguin pushers from Mario party XD

B.) a lot of it was how I herd people and like puzzles I think, also the sheep fascination

C.) Honestly? Dogs give me anxiety, I don’t know why, but they do, I know with reading body language they’re predictable but any not totally chill dog scares me

D.) not super really? Im questioning as is but i don’t think my theriotype has anything to do with it

E.) I growl a lot, if something makes me mad or something is suspenseful and I’m on edge. I also count people? If I’m on an outting with friends I’m in the back of the group making sure everyone is together

F.) just being a therian in general. Irl I feel like there are certain expectations on me to be a certain way but online? I’m free (ish)

G.) hallo! Border collie therian if you’ve read this far lol

H.) not really many, I like being told I’m good at puzzles and I’m smart. I also played this game once that involved herding balloons and I loved the game and being complimented that I was good at it

I.) getting a car, I get to bark and growl and howl as much as I want, no judgement

J.) not at all, I was a little on discord in 2022 and currently on tumblr but not at all till irl

K.) how to find others in your area/how to tell/show that you’re a therian discreetly (there’s probably a ton but it’s been a few years since I’ve looked)

L.) I mean, I live with a human family. But I also like flat plains/farms

M.) I’ve got a small collection of a collar, a tail/ears, and a dog toy. It’s hard to get while being kenneled (dude, that should so be a therians closeted, that or caged…)

Hope this is a good answer!!

Edit: for D, I’m debating it/its pronouns due to being a canine as well :D

I don’t like being a border collie therian. I heard things/people, and I know deep down I connect with them. I’m just not athletic. The only time I like exercising is when it’s for something else, like I’ll go geocaching for a nice walk, but a treadmill is the worst thing ever. It feels like imposter syndrome though, border collies are supposed to be these high energy dogs and I’m just… not

[smol-paw]

Remember, dogs are more then their Breed. Not every dog is gonna be a perfect carbon copy of the Breed Standard. They're living beings. Each one will be unique and have their own personality. That includes you :)

High energy doesnt just mean Athletics too! It means enjoying puzzles. It means highly sociable. Its about the amount of energy the human partner needs to put into the dogs enrichment.

Also, Are Border Collies generally high energy? Sure! But that doesnt mean there arent one's that are low energy.

You are your own unique dog. With your own personality. Youre not an imposter for being your own person. :)

[echoingcloudbreak]

This really means a lot, I am a sucker for puzzles and the more mental energy connects with my inattentive adhd a lot more lmao. I guess I somehow forgot there’s not a copy paste mold for everyone (idk how, I’m the bit of play-doh outside the cookie cutter) so it really is nice to get a reality check

Thank you 😊

[echoingcloudbreak]

My heads felt empty today, not like mentally, my hair is just really flat and it feels like something is missing. Maybe I should try my ears on again, it’s been a long time since I have. It’s really hard because my ears are so familiar to move and react to sounds around me but the second I look in the mirror, it’s not dysphoria really, just something missing (I don’t like using the phantom limb tag but there’s not anything better/idk how to make my own tags)

[echoingcloudbreak]

I imagine running, or is it floating? It’s the motion of four hands, paws, claws, propelling myself forward in pairs as my body moves in a way I can only imagine. The wind whipping around my face as I move with every fiber of my being, my muscles expanding and contracting effortlessly

[echoingcloudbreak]

Yippie! More questions from me lol

Any ideas on what to do/how to manage phantom limbs/shifts? Once they’re there it’s like being told to breathe automatically (sorry for that one). They don’t hurt but they’re just giant masses (wings and ears are my biggest two with the occasional tail. Any tips tricks and ideas are welcome!

[echoingcloudbreak]

Dude, I’ve been getting wicked wing shifts lately. I’m not sure what type of bird I am but I’m definitely feathered, musically involved (idk if that adds much or is just a personality thing) some which are more bird like. Either way my back feels funky frequently and it’s definitely a time lol

[echoingcloudbreak]

Anybody have any ideas for regressing privately? I don’t really have my own space but want to try. Follow up question how do you discover your age/age range? Anything is useful/helpful <3

[echoingcloudbreak]

Dude. I was watching supernatural yesterday and there were skin walkers (turn into a dog at will) and I could not stop growling under my breath! I’m lucky my sibling doesn’t question anything anymore lol

Lowkey kinda wish I was a skin walker…
