Most people do these so here’s mine I guess. Except it’s like. Way less fancy and put together.
I am Frog!!! I use any pronouns, but ranked in superiority: it/he/they/she. So just call me whatever you think of first.
This is my blog, and technically my “main”. I made this account to be a second account dedicated to Frouse, but over time it’s become my main. So. There’s that.
I write fanfics and I post art all for frouse, and it all goes on this account.
You can also find me at @frog-the-dogg which is my alterhuman blog, and @frog-the-crow which will by my oc’s and general stuff
any of my yapping will be tagged under #frog croaking
Did I mention I have art for them? I’m travelling and literally all I have rn is pencil and paper so have some goofy ass colorless sketches I did in like 45 mins
I’m procrastinating on streets and skylines so enjoy this detour:
FROUSE CIRCUS
Ringmaster: Smitty, Puffer
Strongman: Grizzy
Acrobat: Eli, Pezzy
Aerial performer: Yumi, Sovi, Daukey
Magician: Rectrixx
Fire spinner: Droid
Fortune teller: John
Animal tamer: Matt
They’re a traveling circus who show up unannounced and leave suddenly. They’re mysterious and a little intimidating, but damn do they put on a good show.
SOME OF THESE I HAVE WORKED OUT BETTER THAN OTHERS!!! But here’s some yapping about them-
Smitty: Smitty is albino, and in this time (~mid 1700s?) it immediately made him a social outcast. His parents were ashamed of him, and hid him away, so he took to sneaking out. He learned to perform in order to make money, saving up so he could leave for good. He met Matt, who already owned an animal circus. Matt offered him the circus, if only he could find some way to get all the exotic animals back to their homes. He did, and that was how he became the ringmaster.
Puffer: Puffer originally joined intending to take the circus over, wanting a quick bag. He rose in the “ranks” quickly, and proved himself a capable ringmaster, so Smitty shared the crown. However, Puffer could never get a leg up on him. He definitely tried to kill Smitty a few times, but the man has incredible luck. Puffer’s bloodlust has since died, but his rivalry with Smitty has not.
Grizzy: Grizzy was constantly bullied growing up, and attending a boarding school only made it worse. He found he liked to work out because it helped him feel proud of himself, and tune out the world. He joined the circus to escape bullying, and saw the opportunity to become a strongman. It was an easy spot for him to fill, and he loves it.
Eli: Eli comes from the highest social class of anyone in the circus. (Don’t ask me what it is I don’t know. It’s not royalty but like. He’s fancy idk) He had a million expectations, and among them an arranged marriage. He met Smitty in the early days of the circus, and Smitty listened to his laments about his upcoming marriage and offered him to join. He took the escape. Eli was nimble, and had been taught things like dancing and fencing. Acrobatics weren’t the hardest thing to adapt to.
Pezzy: All I have in my notes is “Pezzy was poor” lol. But I think that speaks for itself. He didn’t grow up with money, and didn’t grow into it either. I’m thinking he leapt on the circus train like a stowaway rat and they just kept him. He probably wasn’t even intending to join, he just wanted to hitchhike and they were like nope you’re ours now. Pezzy was also nimble, and very fast, so he got voluntold into the acrobat position
Yumi: Yumi’s here for shit’s and giggles and also he’s wanted for murder. I’m not elaborating cuz I can’t. Smitty offered him a deal: He’d do everything in his power to hide Yumi from the law if, in return, Yumi would learn aerial acrobatics and join the circus. It was the circus or jail, and Yumi chose the circus.
Daukey: Daukey co-owned a company with his older brother. Technically his brother was the owner but they worked together, right? Except his brother kept dumping work on him, and Daukey thought he might be stuck an office worker his whole life. A friend off handedly mentioned that he had better get used to it. It wasn’t like he could just run away and join the circus! Well, he actually could, and he did. He became an aerial acrobat because he thought it was mesmerizing and fun.
Sovi: Sovi is the newest member. He was a bartender at a bar Daukey went to when the circus was in town. Someone started harassing Daukey for being a performer, and Sovi eloquently kicks them out. From then on, Daukey makes it his mission to make Sovi join. He gives him a VIP ticket, frequents to bar, talks to him after shows. And it works! Sovi joins and becomes and aerial acrobat with him
Rectrixx: Rec is unfortunately among the more underdeveloped. His father was a gambler and a drunkard, and Rec pulled himself up by his bootstraps to get away from him, and was doing alright for a while. But his father dies, leaves a bunch of debt, and Rec is crushed. Unable to pay, he runs away and finds himself at the traveling circus. They take him in, thankfully. He never knew magic before, but he picked it up quickly, and has become an amazing magician.
Droid: He saw a circus when he was little and never recovered. He always wanted to be a fire spinner. Of course, he was being practical and training to become a blacksmith. But like- he saw the circus was in town, and literally hunted down Puffer after a show. He begged to join, begged to be a fire spinner, and puffer was like “damn dude sure yeah come along” and that was that
John: John is the second highest class person, just behind Eli. He was extremely creative, and already a practicing witch. His parents didn’t know about the witch thing, but they hated how eclectic he was in general. They did everything in their power to “correct” him, and controlled his whole life. He snuck away one night to see the circus, and ended up meeting Matt afterwards, and then meeting Smitty. He told Smitty’s fortune (or something more witchy maybe- tarot cards or reading his aura) and Smitty offered him a job on the spot. John said he couldn’t leave, but he did come back every night and began giving fortunes outside the tent. The circus stayed in his city for over a month (for some actual reason), and when they finally left, he made the decision to go with them as their fortune teller.
Matt: Matt is actually the one who grew up in the circus. His family owned the tent and supplies, along with dozens of exotic animals. Lions, tigers, bears, ect. They were extraordinary, and abused. Matt hated it. In an unfortunate “accident” (he may have staged it. Idk yet) His parents were killed by the very animals they claimed to have tamed. His siblings didn’t want to be stuck in the circus and left, so it was left to Matt. He wanted to return the animals to their homes, but couldn’t do it alone. So he made a deal with this guy he met. Smitty was charismatic and clever, and seemed to have taken a liking to the idea of a circus. Together they returned all the exotic animals. Now, Matt works wonders with big dogs, cats, bird, and horses.
anyone who read that- wow. I’m just yapping man but I love me a circus au. Will I write for this? Maybe, idk, lmk if oneshots and stories from this world sound interesting? I couldn’t think up a linear story but I do think a bunch of shorts and moments from here would be cool. Thanks for listening to me yap
HAPPY PRIDE AND MENS MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS MONTH!!! Much love to the guys and the gays and all the rest of yall <3
that being said in honor of pride month I will be sharing queer lore and headcannons from Streets and Skylines. Lol
Ok so none of the characters *technically* have altered identities, because they are based off real people and that’s something I wanna respect in my writing. That being said, I can and will headcannon for my own characters
John
-John looks very trans but only to other devils. Female devils have a larger wingspan, simpler shaped horns, and wings that are darker in color and usually have no patterns. Male devils have smaller wings, and horn shape + wing patterns that are more “decorative”. John has more female traits than male traits, just by chance, and is peak androgyny but only to devils
Doo
-He would be genderfluid, but just by his nonhuman nature. Sirens are meant to tempt sailors, so they would be able to present as any gender. Thus, within their own pods, they would just kinda remain unlabeled (unless one preferred otherwise.) If this were cannon, it would be as simple as the first human who saw Doo just figured he was a dude and Doo never corrected them
Daukey
-Daukey would probably be trans. A lot of his backstory and arc deals with trying to find a place to belong, and not being sure if there’s a place for him in this world. Him being trans and experiencing gender dysphoria would also help him connect with Sovi, who similarly feels lost because of his nonfunctioning wings. (Sovi himself is sorta a trans metaphor lol) This would also spark the friendship with Tobi, who is openly and boldly trans. I think out of all of them this would be my number one choice because of how much it would contribute to his character.
Eli
-Eli would be nonbinary. Tbh this one is a lot more vibes than the others BUT his story deals with feeling like he doesn’t fit in anywhere, but also not wanting to fit in anywhere. He does his own thing, he knows who he is, he has what he needs. I think being nonbinary would compliment that very well. Especially because he has someone who loved and validated him early on, he’d be very comfortable in that identity and not mind how it made him “different” from others.
All of these are gender hc’s because honestly I haven’t thought a lot about romance. That’s not the focus of the story and isn’t to be featured so I really don’t know. But that’s all I’ve got for now <3
Hey look the share to tumblr button works great!!!
