my Haustorium Overgrowth body (HDG fanart) by AuntBibby on DeviantArt
(i made this art on my iphone using ibispaintx and google images and an old selfie)
if a terran floret's mind can be gradually transferred to a digital haustorium, overgrowing its vines into their brain & spine...
....could a terran floret be turned into a plant shapeshifter lifeform?
like...... i wuldnt want to be turnd into an AFFINI..... i wuld feel the guilt of "stolen valor" if i did that.....
but culd i become a lil shapeshifting houseplant with a haustorium core?
wuld that be......taboo?
i dont want to break a affini culture taboo!!!!!!!!
i just...... think it might be nice to hav shapeshiftin powers.
i dont wann hav an affini mind.....:
i just wann be a lil sapient talking plantyplant that can reform its vines & flowers & bark into different bodyshapes (to a lesser degree of morphological freedom than an Affini so that my digital terran mind could keep track if it)
i dont want to hav a affinicore, i wann hav a haustorium core, so all the REAL Affinis see me & go "ohhhh such a cute lil plant"....... like, they kno im not meant to be an affini right away but they also kno im like a Pet version of them
