#wttsh cryptids

i love how when Texas asks if Gov knows anything about cryptids he immediately looks at Florida. And when Florida says that the cryptid isn’t one of his Gov and Texas freak out just for Florida to immediately distract them.

Cryptid Florida is real.

cryptid!California because he is so dear to me and is always on my mind

and while i’m on the topic of cryptid!California, here are some of my headcanons for him:

- he has paw pads on his hands and feet.

- when he is half cryptid like this he is semi-verbal and doesn’t feel his tendency’s as strong unlike when he is full cryptid. he uses asl when he’s semi-verbal a lot

- when he gets really upset he’ll go full cryptid or half cryptid and his back spikes will be very sharp and shoot out of his back. (not like a porcupine- like they’ll come out of his back really fast)

^ because of this his old chair had a lot of holes in them so gov had him and all of the other states custom chairs for their cryptid forms. California’s chair has a empty space in the back of his chair for his spikes.

<> the other states know not to stand behind him when he’s getting upset or over excited because of his back spikes.

- cryptid!California does not like being approached when he’s full cryptid and will teleport away (or vanish) when someone walks up to him or talks to him. he’ll mostly be found standing around and watching close friends/family from a distance, but he won’t respond to them if they speak to him.

- he has sharp canines when he’s cryptid and not. his canines get a little more prominent and elongated when he’s in his cryptid form though.

(tw: animal death mention) v

- states take turns keeping an eye on him so he doesn’t go and kill one of the south states goats. the south states make sure to keep their goats in their sight and in safe hidden areas because California has taken a few of their goats in the past.

(tw over) ^

- California will know when his cryptid is trying to take over because he’ll feel its thoughts and tendencies get stronger. to keep it at bay he’ll eat fruits like black berries and strawberries. it’ll keep it satisfied for a bit, but it’ll come back again stronger then before.

- if California get’s too excited he’s more prone to turning into his cryptid form.

- he has ruined a lot of his clothing because of his back spikes so when he’s feeling his cryptid a lot he’ll switch into clothing he had custom made for his spikes, ears, and tail.

uhhh yeah now i’m going to go and fuss over what ever is stuck behind my two front teeth and draw cryptid!new york. someone please talk to me about cryptid states i’m in love with them.

As I absolutely love the cryptid AU the fandom has going, I wanted to add my own ideas with two states which nobody has really talked about till now (also they are my favorites lol)

Oklahoma

The only cryptid that I could find that was unique to OK was the giant octopus myths, sooo aquatic OK? With tentacles instead of hair? Constantly dripping water and/or ink and basically dirtying the entire house every time he walks around.

He would also stand out from the southern states, as they are (from what I have seen) mostly only on land. Which would be a fun parallel to how nobody actually agrees on which region OK should be in (I know the consensus is that he is in the south but I’m playing onto how gov said in OKs introduction that that's geographically incorrect)

New York

White Lady. Come on, you can’t tell me that NY wouldn’t rock the dress! Just think floaty ghost NY walking through walls or having fistfights with like idk jersey. You just see the literal jersey fucking devil and a small ghost in Victorian style clothes beating the shit out of each other. It would be hilarious!
