Thank you, STP, for giving me the ability to embrace death as a mercy and understand that there is a natural end to all things. I do not think I would be ready for my baby’s death without it, and I’m glad she finally got the option to rest. Via (tw pet death)

Pepper just passed away. We gave her a ton of treats before putting her to sleep, and she went peacefully.

I’m ok, just grieving a bit. I may be quiet for a minute.

"I like Panda. Panda Panda Panda~ it's so fun to say. And I am a sucker for insects. But don't let me tell you. Let's give the floor to a professional~☆"

"We’re really going with the “rizz em with the tism” approach /silly

Panda ants, also known as velvet ants, are named for their fuzzy look. However, despite their cuteness they are colloquially known as “cow killers” for their agonizing sting. Yet this little guy is gentle as a puppy despite his parasitoid-wasp-insectoid breeding. Like all males, he bears no sting.

He’s probably more cute than sexy tbh, but he looks like a Swiss roll. Or those seals that look like Swiss rolls. Does this make any sense to anyone? Idk but I want to snuggle this adorable little confection servant critter so bad.

Not an update I wish I had to give, but I may be a little quiet as my beloved sixteen year old cat’s terminally ill. If anyone wants to send asks, interactions, etc that would be a welcome distraction.

[luckproduction]

Hehe thank youuuu!! I swear I love them so much can't get enough of them <3

Was going to save this one for the bracket open-up, but I think it makes more sense if I put my best foot forward in the lore department first! The Voices are kinda a side show to the Princesses in @on-borrowed-paths, but like the other exceptions (Smitten, Hunted + Quiet himself), Broken’s role is… Interesting.

(Loredump under the cut) @voice-of-the-sexyman

The “Construct’s” pantheon in OBP is separated out between two forces: The Networked Wild, and the Tower. And the two do not necessarily see eye to eye.

Wild is rooted to the earth, where Tower guards the skies. Wild is an active force; Tower is an overseer. Nature and industrial innovation. Where one prefers to get her hands dirty, the other merely points and directs, keeping her hands pristine. And thus, they need their own scouts and informants to help bridge their differences.

Broken was carved out with the benefits of both. His wasplike attributes provide the strength and endurance of Wild’s mouselike Fae, while his canid form proves his loyalty as a servant to someone larger. Towering over the Fae and cowering beneath Her Radiance, Broken is equipped with the unique mindset of both size vantages at once. So when forces attempt to break that balance, this mediator has his own ways of making people talk. A dog’s bark may be worse than his bite, but a panda ant’s sting is the rival to those fifty times their size. I’d tread carefully, if I were you.

(Designer’s note: he’s also designed to be viewed more canid from above and wasp from below! So this was a fun exercise).

Not to like! Smash my hyperfix fandoms together or anything. But!

@voice-of-the-sexyman artists looking for perspective shots for Tower & Broken: May I recommend: @gtposeref for some solid size difference refs (just pls behave that blog is SFW)? Lotsa good doll-posed anatomy with height differences from varied angles & scenarios. Wanna learn some Worm’s Eye View? Recommend this one they’re rlly good.

[sapphic-slaylist]

Realized I never posted the wet puppy separately! (Autocorrected to desperately; Brokie, calm down)

Anyways here’s your dog @voice-of-the-sexyman

If this didn’t submit to y’all transparently I’ll fix it sorry
