You know the brainrot is bad when the AU of your oc gets its own ref,,,,,

Anywho, here's Scout! The extra fluffy, significantly less traumatized version of Sev! (But not zero trauma, of course. I mean look at her.)

Her story is,,,, so fun to me.

I will infodump all of it if asked-

I was watching FMAB and then later Pocahontas II when I noticed this guy:

He looks a bit familiar...

Bido, is that you??

He even goes to work for Ratcliffe, a very greedy man.

So evidently (from searching google) it isn't normal for someone to have both central and sectoral heterochromia. Which kind of leads me to consider my chimerism theory, but honestly I don't know enough biology or genetics to move forward with figuring it out.

My primary care with Penn State Health tried to direct me to John's Hopkins for testing, but their representative who called me 2 months later said they don't test for chimerism outside of acquired microchimerism from transplants.

I just would really appreciate someone who knew more than me helping to figure this stuff out, because it makes sense to me, with a few other symptoms. But again, at this point I can only say it's a theory, and I feel like a crackpot bringing up to Penn State Health again, considering their first response was to refer me to a place that doesn't test for from-conception chimeras.

I could ask for a blood test to see if I maybe have a mixed blood type, but again, I'd sound like a hypochondriac.

TLDR; I'm frustrated not knowing more about biology or genetics, and all my local options for more information have been depleted. Biologists, geneticists, or people who know more, please help. I need a direction to go.

New oc boys! Welcome the Chimera twins!

They're obviously based off of the Chimera, which is a Greek mythological creature, who had the head if a lion and a goat, as well as a snake for a tail. Nemean is the lion head, while Silenus is the goat head. The snake tail has been replaced with the body if a snake.

I wanted to keep their names Greek mythology based, so I named Nemean after the lion with the golden fur that Hercules killed. I named Silenus after Dionysus' companion.

I'm thinking about making this a series with my next project being Orthus, the two-headed dog.

Day 4 is desert, and this was another colour palette challenge for me.
