((A Randomlite running. Maybe Korr, but it’s been a while since I drew it and I can’t see the tail blade or face all that well, so I’m not really sure XD Mostly it was just pose and perspective practice.))
Hey guys I don’t know if anyone has made a post about this yet so I’m going to: Please block the blog reblogginganyway, post haste. Just like the URL implies its reblogging posts that people do not want reblogged. I find this one in particular to be souly malicious because its going as far as to take screen shots of content under read mores and in tags to attach to the post so even if you delete the post your content will still be on their blog regardless.
Yes, I do have a rough design for Muffet’s mother, along with a rather in-depth headcanon about Muffet, her mother, and her age (both physical and actual), but I won’t go into those here. Possibly in another post. The captions on the right, which got a little cut off while scanning, read:
*The spiders are our cousins. I am their queen, as you will be someday, and they are very much like us - but many people hate them. That is why we must protect them.
*Because they fear them.
*That, my little miss Muffet, I do not know.
I mean, Humans didn't start right of doing those things Korr. Someone had to invent those ideas. by the way, the 'knifeshoes' are called ice skates. I wouldn't recommend trying it, mainly because it requires a skilled balance I'm sure someone only morphed human wouldn't achieve. Heck, I'm a real human and I enjoy slipping on the ice more than skating on it. By the way, have you tasted human food yet?
Korr: I suppose that makes sense. I have enough trouble tailless and with two hooves - feet - even on solid ground.
Korr: And oh, yes! Human taste buds are really quite marvelous.
My only annoyance with her is some of her morph descriptions. Birds do not have backwards knees; what we think of as the “backwards knee” sometimes is actually the equivalent of the human heel. And horses and other unguligrades (hooved animals) don’t have four knees. The “knee” of the front leg is the equivalent of the human wrist, or the carpus. I mean, really, if you’re going to write about humans turning into animals, do your research on animal anatomy
Can we take a moment to appreciate the fact that K.A. Applegate might be the only sci-fi writer EVER who both (a) condemns the mass killing of aliens even if they are attacking the earth AND (b) shows why it’s sort of necessary in the situation?
It seems like too many other sci-fi stories go the route of Avengers or Doctor Who (S1) or Independence Day where a protagonist wiping out thousands of aliens is portrayed as uncomplicated heroism and we all celebrate at the end. Either that or they go the route of Avatar the Last Airbender (S3) or Buffy the Vampire Slayer (S5) where the characters that don’t want to engage in violence don’t have to get their hands dirty because a deus ex machina comes along and prevents that from having to happen. In both cases doing the right thing is also a matter of doing the easy thing.
Applegate, by contrast, doesn’t let her characters get away with an uncomplicated happy ending. She doesn’t say “they were aliens so it’s okay to kill them,” and she doesn’t offer them a third way out of their impossible choice. She gets into the hell that is war and doesn’t use the sci-fi genre to let her gloss over the dirty details.
Hi! So I just started following you because I just found out about you and OMG you are adorable. Anyway, sooo as a Yeerk Peace Movement member, I’m curious about your stance on the YPM. (Also a note. I found a way to snap a picture on my phone and share it to my computer through the cloud? I’m sorry but I don’t remember how I did it. XD; I just know it’s automatic. But I saw you were struggling with having no scanner/tablet and thought you might be able to look into that?)
First appearance of Eliza after a) her redesign and b) my art style improving wildly after my massive hiatus!
(Text:
Korr: Goodness - thank you! The words “Yeerk” and “peace” are… a bit incongruous in my mind, to be honest. It seems like a dream, too good to be true. (Not that I want to offend.)
Eliza: Korr, for real, who are you talking to?
Korr: I have begun a blog!Eliza: A blog… where.Korr: On the tumblers!Eliza: Oh, dear Lord.)
// ANIMORPHS DOESNT GET ENOUGH LOVE INSTA FOLLOW MY FRIEND HEEECK
Oml this blog is basically dead but thank you so much
...of course if I were to actually get questions... I never made a death announcement
Korr, like most Andalites, doesn’t think much of human technology. (She likes games like Tetris for some reason, and seems to be able to play those for hours if she gets the time, but gets really bored with anything else.)
(Basically-dead askblog for an Andalite OC with an unnecessarily long name) | If you're wondering why the hell I followed you: if you are an otherkin blog: I'm @a-dragons-journal; if you are a SWTOR blog: I'm @dragonheart-swtor; if else: I'm @dragonheartftherpays. I accidentally made this my main when I joined and Tumblr is stupid and won't let you change that.
