NUTTYGUTZ IS FOREVER!

ooo, good question!! if I had to choose?

Can you tell me more about him in general like headcanons and stuff?

He’s already turning out to be my favorite!

And can you also tell me more about your AU “Beyond the Veil”?

thank you!! he's primarily called Zach! (credit to @liftylacerated for giving him that nickname) his name is essentially short for his last name, Saccharine! Zach is an insanely variable guy - after years of development, he's basically become his own character... so here's a little rundown of the legend himself:

Zach is a hybrid, a mix of 3 animals in particular - Plantain squirrel (main), Chevrotain, and Sand Cat the stripes in his tail are all purely decoration, dyed in - but his tail does have natural stripes! his personality could be described as... offensive by accident. hell, his catchphrase is "no offense!" he can come off as rude and apathetic - he does struggle with apathy in particular - but he never has true ill intention. he's just conditioned to be rough, because the world isn't nice to him.

so here's the news: I may be soon diagnosed with skin cancer.

this is something that's been bothering me for, like a WHILE. I just now am finally getting the courage to have it checked, get all the appointments and such done, and from what I've been told, there's basically a very good chance that I'm dealing with a cancerous melanoma.

fortunately I am looking into getting it treated ASAP... this is a kind of cancer that can spread to other parts of the body at any given time, and that prospect terrifies me. so... yeah, that's the scoop... hopefully things will be okay! I'm remaining hopeful through this all, and that's all I can really do in the wait!

rest assured: I will NOT be stopping my work on my projects, I know how much you guys adore Beyond the Veil and such. we're working on it. life's been a bitch lately, and I do apologize for it.

he does actually! I still need to design the little fella fully, BUUUUT... Zach has a black palm cockatoo named Risk!

I'd love to draw stuff related to CoS if I simply had the motivation to :D but maybe I will someday! that would be cool, methinks at the very least I might draw my Shimmer Somnia Elus that's also a cosplay of Zach soon! or my glimmer+glowtail Aereis thats also a Zach cosplay? I dunno!

OKAY. this is gonna be an interesting one. I know many of you may be new to my hyper OC-ified version of Nutty but TRUST ME there is logic to him! I got into HTF back in 2023, thats literally where I first began to develop my own headcanons for Nutty it.... definitely got a bit carried away, now that it's been Literal Years

unfortunately this type of thing has happened to all of my faves across different fandoms. the OCification pipeline is deadly. please never let yourself go down the rabbitholes of self-projection and sheer headcanoning to make up for a lack of a backstory like the way I have. or do! I dunno, I'm not your dad :D
