UHM??? @iggyguyy-deactivated20250423?????????? BRO WHAT WHY ARE THEY DEACTIVATED WHAT HAPPENED???????

What are/were the Broodals' parents like? (Are they still alive? Do they live together?)

(*(Open pictures for better viewing)*)

Yes! These two are still alive, and they do live together, but, they do live pretty far away from their kids (the broodals) at the moment, so don't count on seeing em much (for now).

The father, on the left, is named Jamison & he is 42. The mother, on the right, is named Dahlia and she is 43.

Dahlia is a strong woman with a gambling addiction, she can lie on the spot and can read most people like an open book, she also tends to be great at persuading people and negotiating, she was a very caring mother, treated all her kids like they were the most precious things in the world, and she enjoys writing books and poems, terrible at cooking though. When she was younger she used to help her sister, Madame broode, (I'll come up with a first name for her later) with her wedding business, but has since retired from that job (The broodals took her place when she left) and has taken up a path of architectural design.

Jamison is a caring man which has always been a fan of stage plays, he used to take his children (the broodals) to go see them (they hated it), and often quotes his favorite plays when he gets the chance, He's in a wheelchair because he broke one of his legs and it's still healing (don't ask how he broke it), he was like a stay at home dad while his wife went out and worked, (and also gambled a little on the side, thankfully this never led to any major losses, she was good at limiting the amount she spent at the casino), he's very close with all his children, but probably the closest with harriet, he always saw her as pretty lively and enjoyable to be around, of course he treated all the broodals equally, she was just his secret favorite, don't expect any more to this guys description, I'm clean out of ideas.

These two are non-askable characters by the way (for the time being)

కᩏꫀ᭙ꪖꪹᡶ Is pretty neutral about both his parents, he visits them more often than the others, he finds it comforting to visit his old home sometimes and enjoys the company of his parents, it's just... Familiar, and less hectic than constantly traveling around with his siblings and his auntie, Madame broode.

ɾαɳɠσ Is also mostly neutral, and also secretly kind of liked going to stage plays with his father when he was younger, but he'd never admit it. He doesn't really visit them unless all his other siblings are going.

Ｔｏｐｐｅｒ Takes a very strong liking to his father, and thus got a very similar hat to Jamison, he always found his parents and old home nice, since the place it's in is relatively calm, and he doesn't feel as on edge or feel the need to constantly be alert there, since, well he grew up there, same as spewart, it's familiar.

𝐻𝑎𝑟𝑟𝑖𝑒𝑡 Is also pretty neutral about both her parents, though she always thought her mom was pretty cool. She used to claw the seats whenever her dad took her to another stage play, it was boring, and she had nothing to do, and she just could not sit still, she needed to move.

Ludwig, do you like to play the ocarina?

𝐿𝑢𝑑𝑤𝑖𝑔: why yes, I do suppose that I enjoy playing the Ocarina though Its a mouth instrument, and it's a little hard to play mouth instruments due to my tooth being in the way of the mouth piece so I don't play it as often as I do my piano or the violin.

Welp a drawing of bowser jr won't hurt

Lil prince got a pet Yoshi but they haven't hatched yet I wonder what they'll look like.

hi y’all i just wanted to put you onto this fundraiser for the buffalo nations grasslands alliance. they’re trying to recoup some of the funds for black-footed ferret conservation on tribal grounds that the trump/musk administration has frozen, which is impacting not only the conservation efforts themselves but the livelihoods of the people working on them. the frozen grant is 1.1 million but this fundraiser has a goal of 50,000.

the fundraiser has 24 days left and has only reached 2% of its goal with 11 donations. black-footed ferrets are an endangered lazarus taxon that was thought to be extinct from 1979-1981 before being rediscovered by accident. they’re a miracle of conservation and it would be horrible to lose them for good, not to mention (again) the impact of people working with these animals losing their jobs which is outlined in the fundraiser link. indigenous-led conservation efforts are extremely important for a wide variety of reasons and as someone in the zoology area i feel obligated to share this fundraiser to contribute to those efforts.

i know that things are hard right now and there’s a lot of people and organizations all across the world that need help, so don’t feel pressured BUT if you have extra money and you can contribute to this fundraiser or share it with people who can that would be great.

super cute black-footed ferrets ^

WHAT?! Where'd they go??!?!?!?!!!!

Harriet's here now! And I added a few extra details to everyone, mostly patterns :3

Not an ask, but can you draw the Broodals? Your art style is already super floofy and adorable, I'd love to see what you do with literal bunnies.

Awwww thx! Here ya go :3

Sorry if its low quality it was rushed!! And also i couldn't figure out how to draw Harriet so Its just Spewart, topper, and rango for now! But I'll update this post later with Harriet.

Oh yeah! I forgot about this ask I got a while ago, I guess this can count as answering the anon which sent this in over a month ago.

I watched the Raggedy Ann and Andy Movie a lot as a kid

Edit: OPEN TAGS! Forgot to say that, I didn't tag anyone cus' I didn't know who to tag, and I don't really mind anyone joining in here!!

Compare your first and current fictional crush, I’ll start.

Sighing dramatically knowing I’m the epitome of the “shy girl that only likes bad boys” trope..

I've been thinking a lot about Euclydian biology lately, specifically in regards to pigmentation thanks to this awesome ask I got on a side blog, and wanted to illustrate some of the ideas I had. Super quick lazy sketches but hey, maybe some of you will dig this! Nerdy stuff under the cut, will make a bit more sense if you read the aforementioned post

Euclydians have a genetic predisposition towards a "resting" color (in Bill's case, yellow). The opposite of this state (full "flexing" of chromatophore-controlling muscles) is also predispositioned, which is what's seen in the threat display. This rapidly stimulates the individual's metabolism and gets their blood really pumping in preparation for conflict, but is also somewhat costly in terms of energy, so is typically only flashed rather than maintained as Bill does it

"Teeth-peeking" is the cute zoology term I came up with for when a Euclydian displays a couple teeth overtop their eye without fully switching into mouth-function, usually as a threat but sometimes a sort of stim when they're hungry

Communicative flashing ("Chromatic") has a few languages. The most primitive is Simplified Emotive which is a quick display of mood, while the most modern is Traditional Chromatic, wherein patterns of color serve as words. Words in Traditional Chromatic are not ciphers like they are in TBoB and there aren't always direct translations into English

There are a couple accepted ways for a naturally colorful Euclydian to signal an emotion or "syllable" that matches their color, typically either by a subtler change in value along the edges or by changing everything BUT the edges

It's probably worth noting that Chromatic of any variant is considered a secondary, uncommon language in modern Euclydian society. It's simply more efficient and easier for most to speak, though I think Simplified Emotive probably stems from the natural threat display and so it's more intuitive. It's not unheard of for someone's edges to flash "angry/surprised" (◼) for a second if you bump into them on the sidewalk

A memetic blush is a learned behaviour in which individuals appear to fluster by a reddish shift in color along the face, edges and vertices. This might just be something Bill (or hypothetically other Euclydians who come into contact with humans) does I'm not sure yet but it's cute so

Given the body needs to conserve more energy when fighting illness, it's not uncommon for chromatophore muscles to weaken or spasm in order to lessen metabolic strain, giving the individual a patchy look that often reveals the naturally white skin below the chromatophore layer

When rigor mortis occurs in a dead Euclydian, all the minute muscles in control of chromatophore dilation contract all at once, rendering the entire body white. Because of this, white is considered a bit of a grim color in Euclydian culture; you know emos are wearing all-white instead of all-black

Conversely, a perfect, non-tinted grey is a regal shade because it's seen as a sign of fitness and strength. Maintaining a neutral grey requires very precise control over one's chromatophores to get the balance right and hold it there

Euclydians are capable of training the muscles that control their chromatophores like any other, and as a result can change their resting color with enough discipline! They can also use this technique to give themselves markings. Haven't decided the cultural implications of this entirely, but I think the idea of someone training themselves to match their threat display so nobody can tell when they're angry, for example, is a cool idea. Possibilities!
