You ask for WHUTB asks and I shall provide since I have some (no specific TOTE ones yet since I'm only a few sentences in so far)

1. How many groups of huntress groups/Artemis' have their been before Pearl?

2. Since Gem is a shapeshifter can she change her physical age to look however she wants?

3. If the huntresses (both current and Pearl’s mom's group) we're animals, which animals would they be?

I dont have a specific number but its around 5 centuries worth of generations with only like 10-15 generations not becoming Hunters, so a LOT a lot

Oh yeah and if she'd been able to go to other cities more often (without getting traumatized) when she was like 14-17 she'd absolutely look older just to see if she could trick people into giving her alcohol. The only feature she cant change is her voice and even then shes not that bad at impressions

Ooo okay let's see.

Pearl- obviously a wolf/dog of some sort. Specifically probably a wolfhound

Shelby- either a rabbit or a mouse. Or a rat. Generally just something smaller, fast, and resourceful but also possibly easily frightened.

Cleo- either a horse because of their backstory with Medusa or like a vulture. Could also fit as like something weirder like an octopus. Intelligent, good at multitasking, kinda freaky lookin yk?

False- well. Eagle. For obvious reasons.

Cherri- either a wolf like her dad or. Actually I cant think of anything probably a wolf

Apo- either a peacock because proud and stuff or a bat or maybe like a shrew or smth. Could also be a raccoon cuz shes the best thief and the group and pretty adaptable

Drift- an owl. She just gives owl vibes

Lizzie- probably a cat tbh

Gem- I mean obviously it could be anything but mainly either a deer of some kind or an antelope

Kristen- like Pearl, probably a wolf, although she's also lowk kinda hyena coded sometimes

Annie- a panther

Silena- either a gorilla or a raven

Varity- peacock/peafowl or something

Dolly- either a coyote or a dingo

Percy- absolutely a horse of some kind, probably specifically a draft horse

Lola- a snake

Queenie- some kind of parrot maybe? Honestly I have no idea for her

Kasey- maybe a fox but she could also be a rat like her daughter

heh. You'll never guess what im working on

"Take a break"? NO!!! ITS YURI TIME!!! I DONT WANNA STOP WRITING!!!!!

[sporeofmanynames]

WHUTB Asks!!

1. What is Gem's huntress name if she has one?

2. Does Gem have a favourite animal/creature to change into?

3. What are all the other huntresses opinions on Gem?

4. Medusa is a zombie horse right? How did Cleo get them? Was Medusa another gift from Joe or something else?

I loved reading WHUTB and look forward to TOTE ^v^

Im gonna gatekeep this from yall for now but dw you'll find out soon enough ehehe

Probably a unicorn (because of Scott), wolf/dog, or dragon. Fun fact, when she was 10-14 she would insist on joining Ren in the forest during full moons and she'd often fall asleep around 2 in the morning when they would stop hunting/running to take a break. He'd then carry her home like a puppy.

Shelby loves her because she makes Pearl happy and because she helps Shelby make fun of Pearl. This is a bonding activity. Cleo was a bit wary of how quick she joined but now has similar feelings about her as Shelby. They also are a little biased towards her because she's non human as well. False similarly has a bias towards Gem but she's still wary, so she spends a lot of time keeping an eye on her just in case. Cherri, of course, loves her, she's the closest thing she has to a sister and thats including the Hunters. Apo is probably the least trustful of Gem because they've talked to her less than the others and she's both very protective and very good at holding grudges. But Cherri trusts Gem so Apo does too, even if she'll help False in keeping track of her. Drift, like her girlfriend, loves Gem. Mostly because she can have Gem turn into the animals in her journals and she can figure out new things/learn about new features she didn't know about before. Lizzie likes Gem well enough but she got a little weirded out when after Gem spent a day as a dog nearby her she pulled Lizzie aside to ask "do you know that you're pregnant?" Because she could tell as a dog. After getting weirded out she decided that was good because then Gem could help with her health and the like.

Yup! Cleo found Medusa when she was ten or eleven in a stable that actually happens to be the same place Pearl, Shelby, and False later got Lunar Eclipse, Count, and Mecca. The owner of the stable wasn't aware that Medusa was a zombie but he did know she was very unruly and didnt like people. When Cleo saw her, they immediately realized that she was undead too and was able to approach her and calm her. She does suspect that Joe might’ve either led her there, put the horse there, or even brought Medusa back to life for her (a lot easier than bringing a human back) because she also suspects his plan was for her to one day join the Hunters.

Have you heard about the new POW SMP series, Pantheon SMP?

Apparently Pearl and the other cast menbers (vsmp cast minus Av¡d according to things I've seen on Tumblr) is gonna be playing champions of Greek gods

Y’know what that could mean?

Champion of Artemis Pearl!

WHUTB predicting the future??

(Don't take this as fact, this is just a prediction, I have no idea which god she will be champion of but when I heard about the new POW SMP concept and that she would be playing I couldn't stop thinking about this)

ive heard about it! Im pretty sure shes gonna be an antagonist but its still very possible that she has something to do with Artemis
