I imagine myself as a 4-legs-2-wings kinda dragon, though sometimes my phantom limbs manifest as 2-legs-2-wings. I'm sharp and angular; dark, yet with an iridescence to my scales.
I'm a silent hunter, creeping through the trees. I'm the protector of my forest, nourishing it, keeping it in balance, and defending it from intruders.
I have a long, broad tail that's prehensile for climbing, and strong enough for swimming. My wings, while rather robust, can hold me aloft, and fold tightly against my body when I'm grounded. I can flare out my wingtips along my tail while swimming to serve as a makeshift fin.
I'm wild, feral, untamable. I'm too intelligent and too solitary to be a pet or a steed. I have responsibilities as a guardian, and where I reside I hope to never see humans anyway. My forest is untouched, untainted by mankind, and I will fight to keep it that way.
Foresty photo dump. These places and perspectives all struck me with a deep sense of familiarity and comfort. They feel like home to me.
^ These were all taken from my own woods, behind my house. They are truly home, and I tend to them in the little ways I'm able.
^ These were from a national park I visited with friends. It was a lovely forest, if full of man-made trails.
^ Couple bonus photos of trees in winter. The first is from my house, on the edge of my woods. The second is what I like to think of as a hint of comfort in the artificiality of a city.

I know these don't really work as deterrents for most users. I treat them more like explanations for why you might be blocked, and demonstrations of stances. Take that as you will. Also typing this in the regular font because it's easier to read.
BYF...
> this is a sideblog dedicated to my nonhumanity. For other content, follow my main or another one of my sideblogs.
> do not use my art or photos without permission. If you ask, I'm more than likely to allow it, with proper credit.
> do not DM me just to chat if you are under 16. If you do anyway, I will either ignore you, give very minimal responses, or tell you to come back when you're older.
> I am neurodivergent with low empathy and do not always have the spoons to properly mask in my responses (if I give responses at all). This is not a sign of malice or dislike. I try to use tone tags when I'm worried I'm coming off as blunt or unclear, and I am never against messages asking for clarification.
> I do not mind NSFT accounts or paraphiles interacting with me, as long as they aren't pro-contact or pedophiles/MAPs. I will not ERP or discuss NSFT topics on this account, though. For that, if you're an adult (with age in bio), you can DM to ask for my NSFT sideblog or alt.
> please for the love of god do not come to me about sexual topics if you're a minor (under 18). It happens way too often, and it sends me into panic attacks. Please go to someone your age, or your parents / a therapist / a counselor for that.
DNI...
or, why i have you blocked.
> bigots (e.g. racists, sexists, queerphobes of any flavor, abelists, anti-nonhuman, etc).
> those who believe in "narcissistic abuse" or who are otherwise abelist towards people with cluster B PDs.
> pro-contact harmful paraphiles and pedophiles.
> non-para radqueer identities.
> under 14 (nothing against you. Just uncomfortable talking to minors. I generally ignore unless you interact a lot with my posts or DM me).
I will block anyone who makes me uncomfortable, regardless of if they're on my DNI or not.
