Didn’t manage to fully finish it before my surgery- still hoping to do so, but I still wanted to share what I have of it now. I’m actually feeling pretty okay at the moment overall, the main discomfort is just bloat right now, which is common, but ;-;

HEY!! HEY YOU! The bird reading this! We are a flock, and I want to draw us. Kind of like this post (linked bellow) from the cetaceans of tumblr.

So, my flock. Submit your reference sheets or photos of theriform birds and I’ll draw us as a large flock!

So reblog, comment, or dm me your references and I’ll add you asap!

(If you’re submitting photos of a theriform bird please include an image of them flying and another image that shows your coloration)

I made my very own flag to represent therianthropes!!

I know there's a more commonly used flag for therianthropy/alterhumanity in general. This one wasn't made to replace the other, but rather because I wanted to express myself!

The greens represent animals living on land, the blues represent animals living in the water, and the yellow stands for our community, connecting us all, no matter how different we might be

This flag is completely free to use, and you don't need to credit me in any way

It was also made to be editing friendly! If you want to personalize the flag, look under the cut! ⋆˚꩜｡

If you want to use this flag, but make it more unique to yourself, you can use this blank version for easy editing! Just use the bucket tool to recolor the stripes

Here are transparent versions of the theta delta and the elven star to recolor and place on top

You can edit the flag however you want! Here are some more personalized edits I made myself

These edits are also free to use!

I hope you like these! Have fun with the flag!!

trying to round up some peeps with less common theriotypes !

While I love and adore wolf/canine and feline therians and otherkin, I’ve never seen or met anyone else with my theriotype(s)

Rounding up others with that issue

For reference, I also heavily identify with canines and felines, and I am a specifically Turkish Van Cat therian, but I am also opposum, raven, and specifically American toad therian as well as angelkin and cryptidkin (I’m not 100% on if I’m using these terms right but in my soul I know I have been these animals and I miss it, I know I have times that I shift into these headspaces and I struggle with species dysphoria a lot, and I find myself frequently feeling wings/extra eyes, feeling like I’m glowing, etc and when I see myself in my headspace I see myself as an angel a lot)

Please I need to find friends :(

Do peoples' wings really hurt that much?

(Note: I put this on the wrong blog yesterday, a blog I usually try to keep separate from 'kin things for personal reasons, and today I panic-deleted it after reblogging to the RIGHT blog, but I want this post to be in the tags, because I'm genuinely curious about others' experiences! So, remaking it with the tags on the RIGHT blog this time.)

--

I just realized something that's a bit out of the ordinary for what I've seen, but I don't know if it's just because of small sample size?

Statistically, when I see people talking about wings (particularly feeling their own phantom wings), they're talking about them aching, or hurting, or being uncomfortable being against something. Nine out of ten times I see someone talking about wings, they're talking about them being uncomfortable.

But my experience with my wings is much more euphoric. I feel them most when they're emoting for me. (This has happened a LOT in the S/era shift; I'm almost constantly aware of them moving, laying certain ways, especially ''dancing'' to music for some reason?)

In raven shifts, they're a source of delight. I most often feel them at rest, but sometimes I'll feel them flutter in excitement or affection, or flare wide when I'm startled. (I tend to actually throw my arms out when I'm startled in bird shifts. It made my sibling laugh out loud once.)

Even as Li|ith (C|awthorne), where the wings were originally a side-effect of something deeply guilty for me, something I took on myself after traumatizing my own sister... They were never SOLELY uncomfortable. They worried me in those shifts, hell the first time my astral form shifted to "the raven beast" (well before it was shown in canon, possibly even before I kinsidered Li|ith???), it was tied to a lot of negative emotion, but the wings were a response to the negative emotion. Does that make sense? The wings didn't make me uncomfortable. Their presence was a response to feeling bad already.

But even with that shift, I made my peace with it. (I wish I could remember how... but all I know is that it didn't work for me the way it worked for Ed|a. I think mine was goofier.)

Anyways, rather than the presence of my wings causing pain or discomfort, they bring me peace and joy. I stretched today, after watching some of HH and thus deepening my S/era shift, and the stretching made me feel my wings even more vividly! Feeling physically less tense and achy brought my wings into sharp awareness. My experience with my wings is made vivider through joy rather than pain.

So is it really that common for phantom wings to cause people pain? Have I only been in spaces where people vent rather than share euphoria? Am I an outlier in that feeling my wings is a pleasant experience rather than painful, or are the wider pleasant experiences just not crossing my (admittedly small) circle? A mixed bag, perhaps?

For any other fellow birds out there, I would highly recommend dying your hair if possible to be the colors of your kintype. It personally brought me a lot of euphoria I didn't think I would get! I know its not possible for everyone but if you are able maybe its worth trying!
