Time to drop my Zootopia oc!

Mel Tallear | she/he | melanistic serval | 30-something | prestigous lawyer | shipped with Pawbert :3

*Mel's pronouns are she/he, as he's bigender. However, he isn't out (and doesn't really know that herself quite yet), so for the time being he'll be mostly referred to as she/her.

cw: brief mention of drugs (catnip)

Meet Mel Tallear, a black serval from the Savanna Square. She's one of those success stories you'll hear about whenever someone mentions the big city – a top student, best of her class, who earned a full scholarship and went on to study law, to now become a rising star of a lawyer in the Zootopia city center. Coming from rather humble beginnings, her parents always had high hopes for their special daughter, and sacrificed a lot to give her the opportunity to have a good life.

Mel worked hard all her life, spending her youth doing little else but study every day. Now, she's one of the youngest graduates of the city's most prestigous academy, and even known in her field as one of the very best.

Her secret? She hates it. She's never wanted to practice law, or do any other prestigous job. It's always been her parents dream for her, not her own, and she can't bear to disappoint them, but the truth is, she's unhappy. But she's stuck in her fancy job, and there isn't much she can do about it – is there?

So what does Mel want to do? She doesn't know for the longest time, until the answer presents itself in the form of Pawbert, or rather, his hideout.

See, Mel managed to be successful enough to even gain the attention of the Lynxleys, and receive an invite to one of their events, where she met Pawbert. She liked him right away – he didn't seem like the others, and she didn't feel like she had to pretend to be a version of herself that she was not. He didn't need her to be stuck-up and proper, as was expected of her by everyone else, and Mel in turn liked him better as himself too. As they formed a friendship, Pawbert eventually showed her his hideout, where an idea finally formed.

A getaway place, not just for him, but for them all. A place where cats can be cats. And thus came the plans for the Cat Café, a cat-themed hangout spot filled with all the good cat stuff, from scratching posts to cardboard boxes, cat toys to treats. Where cats could go to let loose for a bit, be themselves without having to keep up their proper behavior to be accepted in a multi-animal society. Loaf down, relax, have a cup of catnip tea or climb the pathways of the walls.

It's all just a silly dream though, of course. Mel's parents worked too hard to give her the life they wanted her to have, she couldn't just throw it away. And it's not like Pawbert could ever break away from his family either.

The Cat Café shall live one day. Sure, Pawbert's in jail, but hey – at least he's got a good lawyer. Once he convinces Mel to do it, because bro what the fuck were you thinking? She's got half a mind to leave him in there. But we all want a happy ending, right?

Extra Notes

Mel's family consists of "regular" servals, she's the only melanistic one. She's born special!

While she knows how to act all proper to fit into high society, she's actually a huge dork. She's a silly kitty. Her and Pawbert get along so well.

The main problem is that she can't stand the cold, and Pawbert suffers in the heat. Rip.

The Cat Café does technically allow non-cats to enter, it just isn't set up to accomodate them. They might not have a good time. But they can come in if they want to.

Mel and Pawbert go hide in that tent of his to partake in catnip and you can't convince me otherwise. Tell me that man can't use some nip time. You know he has access to the good stuff too.

Some more doodles of her, I'll have to practice her some more. Her ears get bigger every time I draw her lmao. Also, my scanner murdered the image quality and I can't fix it, rip 😔🙏

I saw this polyam ship meme from @ mcnuggyy and L1 is just THEM I dropped everything and grabbed my pencil so fast

Notes and reference under the cut <3

Orion is probably going to have a slightly different design every time I draw him until I settle on something because I have no idea what I actually want him to look like. All I know is that I hate the giant over-defined muscle look so much, please won't somebody hydrate the poor guy. Make him big you cowards

Lightray has red pants because I forgot to line his panties, started coloring on autopilot, and by the time I noticed it was too late and I had no choice but to commit. Don't throw rocks at me his other pants are in the wash

Henry over the years

🐈‍⬛ learn more about Henry in her lore post here!

age 23 – entering the battle nexus

design notes:

Henry does have whiskers, I just usually don't draw them because she looks better without them in my style

Young Henry is a malnourished, scrappy little thing and looks younger than she is

age 40 – champion at her peak

design notes:

this is her official gladiator outfit. It comes with a matching red cape she takes off before a fight (gotta make a dramatic entrance)

Henry's scars are mostly covered by thin, white fur that grew back over them. They're probably not quite as visible "irl" as I make them seem

age 40+ – post-canon retirement

design notes:

the shirt and the mug were gifts from the boys. They were jokes, but Henry loves them. Mom 1 and 2 are Splinter and Draxum.

she likes to wear silly touristy new york shirts and stuff like that. Got that mom cringe.

the prosthetic leg is made by Donnie and has a plethora of extra functions (some more useful than others). He wanted it to be special, and might've overdone it a little bit. Why can it make pizza.

the "toes" on the prosthesis are just for design

sidenote: if you feed any of my works to ai, i reserve the right to hunt you for sport ✨️

Ayunae infopost #1 of many (hyperfixation don't fail me now)! I love my little cat people and I hope you do too <3

Spots used to be relatively rare, with most Ayunae being striped or solid colored. By pure chance, the Great Calamity wiped out a large number of striped Ayunae, leading to future generations propagating the spotted gene.

Text transcription under the cut!

The Ayunae

sg: Ayun [ah-yoon]

pl: Ayunae [ah-you-nay]

common languages

Ayunean

Hylian

The Ayunae are a race of cat-like people that live deep within the Faron forests of Hyrule.

They are known to be reclusive, but generally friendly (or at least neutral) towards outsiders.

Their average height is between that of a Hylian and a Rito.

Their eyes are usually orange, amber, or dark green. Blue eyes have been documented in rare cases.

The most common fur colors are browns and blacks, but other colors pop up occasionally.

loosely based on irl cat genetics!

While these days it is more common to see Ayunae with spot patterns, 100 years ago, their furs were predominantly striped!

I was looking through my meme folder for ideas and I absolutely couldn't resist this. Bular and his little friend pet gremlin

I saw this post yesterday and thought of Nightchase immediately I literally could not rest until I brought it into existence. It just needed to happen.

Yeah that's them
