“Normalize drawing your favorite character with your problem”

Thinking about how a lot of the more intelligent bird species are communal, form strong attachments to their parents/ flock or bond for life. About that one bird who was the last of his species that spent years calling out, waiting for a response that would never come because there was nobody else.

Thinking about how Sanguinius is both an obvious mutant (the giant bird wings), with a secret that he knows could endanger him and everyone he cares about (the red thirst) and how he's openly a psyker (the visions) on top of that. How he must have seen what the Imperium does to mutants and psykers, and knew that if he wasn't the Emperor's son, he would very likely not have been given a chance to live.

About how even amongst the primarchs, who stand apart from humanity, he stands a step further away from even his brothers (sans Horus, who ends up stabbing him in the back), either seen as 'too perfect' or just because his wings and his experiences with them alienate him from the rest (with the exception of maybe Magnus, who has an equal collection of visible and known differences).

+ just a bit of commentary regarding some of my personal design choices (also PLEASE let me know if you can't read the horrible shitty handwriting 💀💀 premed notetaking has absolutely fried my ability to write neatly help 😭)
