PLEASE tell us about cricket that name is so cool

IM SO SORRY I TOOK SO LONG TO REPLY TO THIS BUT OH MY GOODNESS I WOULD LOVE TO I ADORE MY BOY

fair warning, this is going to be very long, but i will absolutely talk about cricket

he's part of a world me and my friend have called the brambleverse! character dissertation contained below and sketch included just for u!

cricket is a centaur bard from the plains of the world, currently living in a forest town called mistclaw where he's the mail delivery boy and plays music in the tavern section of the inn for town residents and visitors alike! his best friend in the whole world is a little felvine named thorn, her and her two brothers (bristle and thistle) are bramble's kits

he has a menagerie of instruments (lute and lyre, mainly, as well as a panflute, ocarina, and most likely more), he sometimes gives a bitchass wizard music lessons, and absolutely loves tea. he's got special pockets in his normal everyday outfit where he'll collect little pieces of nature (pretty flowers, herbs, occasionally perhaps a cool rock) to leave at any temples he might encounter in the woods left abandoned long ago

he absolutely loves exploring anywhere he has the opportunity to; the forest, along the tabby-tail river, nearby villages, and even havengleam, the huge capital city where the queen resides. he visits the library there to do his own reading (mostly about old music he can learn and either regale people with as is or convert to the current era/change in his own way) and to exchange books people in mistclaw want or need to return

thank you so so much for asking about him it made my day!! i love my little man so much.

cricket misses the nomadic life of his old centaur herd a lot, and is kind of torn between both lives that he loves, but his aunt silene (not blood related) sending him letters and visiting him every once in a while when the herd is close enough makes him feel better :]

Fun fact about that particular piece of art. That piece dethroned my ex husband as my phone background. I'd had fuckbitch as the background for roughly a year and half maybe 2 years, then I ended up obsessed with DMC. It was was part of my homescreen slide show for a good 4-6 months. Looking back, that was the beginning of the end for him as I started to develop my own actual friend group of people who helped me realize I deserved better after joining the DMC fan community. With my love of DMC being dragged back to the forefront three years later, it feels especially nostalgic since I've left him.

Made a new OC today, and one of his canonical fits is a half buttoned dress shirt with rolled sleeves, a vest, and gun holsters. Was showing off said OC to @sortatiredartist and @mismatchedsoxs, talking about the fact I needed him in that shirt when I found it when Socks fucking goes straight for my jugular asking "how many bodyguard AUs do you have?" Like, hello?? I was spluttering and flustered as shit because I was NOT expected that right then??

Anyway, to be loved is to be known and called the fuck out in a Discord call :3
