Gonna just explain more.
Our back is more sensitive, especially to pain, and I (the host) almost always have my phantom wings. Sometimes, it's more prominent than others.

a poll for the wing-havers
for me, my back has always felt much more sensitive than the rest of my body, to the point of feeling uncomfortable being touched there. sometimes when people touch my back i jump as a reflex, but not if they touch the rest of my body. i wanted to know if this is a common experience in wingedkin, so please answer the poll to satiate my neverending hunger for knowledge :}
Gonna be making a new account/blog.
Gonna put a link on here to it and gonna put a link on it to here.
We will still be using this account sometimes, we just wanna have another one as well.

6th poem to post.
Tw/cw: fighting dog mentions, trauma (hinted at), abuse (hinted at), and aggressive dog mentions.
I'm a fighting dog.
That's what I was
Made and trained for.
But you lie and say
"We did our best
To give her a
Good life and love."
You act innocent
When you are the
Ones who made me
Like this, a monster.
Yet somehow you
Make it out to be
Me who is the problem.
I'm a fighting dog.
Made and trained to be.
I do what you say
I do what you make me.
I am aggressive cause
Of what you did
I wish I wasn't.
We are both transgender (specifically genderqueer/enby) and nonhuman (and we actually would love to use the term transspecies more for ourselves, honestly [more so me than my fellow packmates]).
Transspecies beings are not taking anything away from (other) trans people.
People are gonna hate what they hate. If people really try to use transspecies beings as a reason to hate on transgender people, then they were never really supportive of trans people in the first place.
Remember, be yourself/yourselves as long as you're not hurting anyone!

I'm starting to realize my past views about the term "transpecies" don't align with my current morals and I'm kinda playing with the term. To anyone who uses the term, what are your thoughts about it? Why do you think it's an okay term to use or why not?
I've heard people call it offensive to trans people before but ive also heard that take is pitting two communities against eachother for no reason/one identity doesn't discredit another. I can't think of any actually good reasons against the term tbh. It feels like one of those things I heard about through people being like "have you heard some people call themselves trans species and want to become animals??" And out of fear of being ostracized myself agreed with other peoples views of it. Now I think that's a nothing argument and discredits peoples identities because they are "weird". To be honest, I think the only difference between being a therian/otherkin and transpecies is the label and people only disagree with the label because they are worried about trangender people being ostracized or seen as "just as weird" and transpecies people.
Rebloging to give slight "update" on this.
We are right now just making a yarn tail (also, is acrylic yarn good or bad?) Until we get the time, energy, and knowledge to go about trying to make a tail with our dog's fur.
We are thankful for all the suggestions and tips other beings gave us! But also, we are sort of "dumb" and don't necessarily understand some things in the suggestions and tips, lol. So we would appreciate it if any other beings can help us understand a bit better forthose tips and suggestions, lol.

Do any beings know how to go about making a tail and/or ears with brushed off fur from a dog? Or where to find information about that kind of thing? (We have a husky, and we want to use some of his fur to make at least a tail and maybe ears as well).
We are thinking about using the start of a yarn tail to add the fur to it (we also need fur safe dye cause our dog's fur is white and ours should be a kind of dark brown). Would this work?
We wanna make a tail cause we aren't really able to properly find an ethical tail seller [we are disabled, we aren't gonna go more into it], and we have heard that fake fur tails aren't really that great. We might just end up making just a yarn tail if we can't find a way to use our dog's fur for it. [Are yarn tails good for the environment and stuff?]
- Shay š¾
Yep, to all of this.
Also, just stop using disorders, disabilities, mental terms, etc. in contexts that aren't actually the disorder, disability, etc. Like, please, for the love of everything, stop saying "I'm so OCD" when you don't have OCD and are just being neat. And stuff that is similar.

periodic reminder that it costs zero dollars and zero cents to not use the words psychotic, psycho, schizophrenic, schizo, insane, or delusional to mean derogatory things
no, that alt right person is not āpsychoticā for being racist and having racist beliefs. you can be racist without having psychosis. itās not mental illness causing these beliefs, itās just hatred and bigotry.
no, that person advocating to repeal the medical rights of trans people is not ādelusional/deludedā. you can be transphobic without experiencing delusions. itās not a mental illness that causes these beliefs, itās just hatred and bigotry.
no, that person supporting israel is not āinsaneā for justifying and supporting genocide. you can support genocide without having a severe mental illness. itās not mental illness that causes these beliefs, itās cruelty and hatred.
just find a different word. it is not that difficult. what IS difficult is living with psychosis, especially when it is stigmatized day in and day out. when we equate medical conditions with moral standing or worth, thatās eugenics.
i wish nothing but peace and love on everyone including those who have used these terms in the past, present and future, but i am tired.
there are so many good posts making good points that fall short because they use terms relating to psychosis to indicate moral failing.
psychosis. is. not. morally. corrupt.
STOP equating psychosis with bigotry, hatred, and cruelty.
note. people without psychotic symptoms are encouraged to reblog this. i am not going to do more than my share of the work to educate non-psychotics when iām struggling with my own symptoms. thank you.
Whatās it like when an alter has planned something in the back? Do you just get a fully formed plan popping into your head, or do they talk you through it? Do you just switch?
Hello!!!
Considering I am, as far as we can tell so far, always fronting in some way (sometimes I am just technically "lower" fronting but still fronting). The switch part isn't really true.
It's probably a mixture of the other 2 things, though. Also, sometimes they join front or take over the "main"/primary fronting, and I go into "lower" fronting, but that's not as common.
Usually, when the others join me in front, it's as a secondary (tertiary, etc) fronter rather than the primary fronter.
Hope this answered your question!

DUDE YES PREENING!!
I made a post about that a bit, lol. Yeah, it's very much a pack thing! At first, only very few people were allowed to touch my wings at all, lol. Eventually, more people were added to that list, but the list of people who could actually preen my wings was still pretty small (around 6-8 people I think), lol. It's a very intimate thing, it's a pack thing, it's special.
I really consider/considered my whole class as my pack, but not everyone was in the same "category" of what they could do, if you get what I mean. Like not everyone was given permission to preen my wings and not everyone could suprise me with hugs or any touches without getting bit or something [very, very few people were in this category, mostly cause I got used to the little noises and shit they would make/do when they were about to touch me, lol. So it wasn't fully a suprise and shit.]
Also yeah looking at the actual canon for MHA, it's pretty fucking bad for my pack. I mean, we all had trouble and shit in my canon, but considering my canon didn't have the actual war and shit, it wasn't as bad in some ways. So it's nice to know that I was there for my pack as they were there for me.
Dude, I miss being able to fly. I also have to have a fear of heights in this life, sadly.
I really didn't learn how to fly until after the dorms were made at UA, lol. To be fair, I didn't really have anyone to properly teach me about flying with my wings when I was younger. My older sibling would've had to be the one to do that, and they were busy a lot when it would've been the time to teach me really, and they had to learn on their own so they weren't thinking about having to teach me, lol. I was lucky that I had Hikari [another noncanon being] to help me cause they also had wings and shit. Though their wings were of a different type [my wings were that of like a crow, and I can't quite remember what type of bird their wings were like.] They were still one of the best in helping me with learning to fly.
I don't mention much about my quirk, except for my wings, ears, and tail, lol. But the other "part" of my quirk let me essentially become a spirit like thing, which with that my form was a wolfdog with wings, lol. I could fly just fine in that form, just not in my "normal" form for some reason. Idk why that is exactly, but whatever.
It's missing my pack hours, lol.

Edit: fixed a mistake/typo
Hello, I decided to come say hi and shit in an ask, lol.
I'm not good at starting conversations, but I would like to hear about any alterhuman or nonhuman experiences or memories or anything that'd you'd be willing to share!
- Zuki Shay Lupo (They/it) | a fellow noncanon MHA being/creature :3c
aaa hihi!! good to hear from you, i definitely feel you on the 'bad at starting conversations' lol!
the first thing that comes to mind a memory of playing video games with Tomura and Shuichi. I wasn't very good at it, but it was good bonding and i loved playing with them. I would only play the 'silly' games like Mario Kart or Smash Bros, they got too into the 'serious' ones for me. I finished in last place every time lmao, so i mostly spent my time teasing whoever was in second place. Dabi would sit with us too sometimes, either lazily scrolling on his phone or bothering the three of us, trying to help whoever would give him the most attention lol. The others joined in sometimes too, Himiko and Jin and rarely Sho and Toshi if they were hanging out. Himiko would shriek excitedly and bump us while Jin cheered her on and cursed her out. It was good.
Thanks for giving me the opportunity to ramble lol!! Feel free to share any memories/thoughts you have :D
We are kinda dumb rn.
What do you mean?

Uh, we are not sure if frogs are good pets (we mean, like how a wild animal isn't a good pet, basically not sure if they should be kept as pets).
We have not had frog legs before. And we are not sure if we would ever want to have them.
- Shay š¾
Hey, what are your opinions on frogs? We need strong opinions, itās for a school project (lie). -Consensus
Frogs are cool!!!
We love all animals!!!
We don't know much about frogs, though.
Sorry, this probably isn't really what you want. But this is what we can give.
