Roleplay On Main

THE AMOEBA ARMY IS COMPLETE

As some of you guys know, I was busy taking KO-FI AMOEBA COMMISSIONS a couple months back over on Twitter (basically I draw your oc as an amoeba). This is the result of about 4 days of work :’D

The wings vary in size from elbow-span to full arm span and bigger and sprout from the shoulder blades

They also vary in colour and pattern

There’re stereotypes for wing type

Just generic stuff like bigger wings = bigger genitals

But also stuff like “people with crow wings are untrustworthy”

Wing type and size can run in the family

“Yea, I got my dad’s colouring but my mum’s pattern”

People find different wing types attractive

“Damn! Look at the wings on that guy!”

So there are bad pick up lines

“I’d ask you if it hurt when you fell from heaven, but with those wings, I doubt you could!”

New wing-related body language

People put their wings around their loved ones protectively or romantically

Wings expand to their full width when their owners are threatened

Flared wings = intimidation

People hide behind their wings

Wings change as people age

So there are youngin’s who are insecure that their wings look different than their peers

And this leads to the sexualisation of over/underdeveloped wings

Because wings won’t make humanity suck less

Wing growing pains

Sex-ed includes a part about wing growth and care

People missing one or more wings

Mostly in accidents or birth defects but removing someone’s wings can be a sign of dishonour

So there are prosthetics

There are some that match wings nearly perfectly and others that are bright and colourful to show pride in the missing parts

And other wing related disabilities

Some people can’t close up their wings to their back so they need aids to keep them from stretching too far out while indoors

Stimming by wing flapping

Rapid wing flapping is such an autistic stereotype that people do it to mock others and its listed as one of the “telltale” signs of autism

It’s not actually anymore common than any other stim, people just care more about it cause it causes the most property damage

Wings spasm and restless wing syndrome

The kid who sits in front of you in math has a wing spasm and hits you in the face

Imagine your OTP

Cultures where people cover their wings for the sake of modesty

Wing accessories 

Like, can you not see a kid putting a good couple dozen tiny plastic clips and ribbons in their wings

Or flowing wing scarves 

Wing fashion models

Dying of wings different colours

People change the colour of theirs to another natural colour like a darker or lighter shade of brown

But also people dying their wings 14 shades of purple

And there are different patterns that can be dyed into them

Hairstylists but for wings

Wing cosmetic surgery to change their shape

Getting gray feathers in wings with age

Male pattern loss of feathers

Buff dudes and gals with absolutely ripped wings

Gendered wings

Certain wing shape being considered masculine and some feminine

TERFs doing the whole “How to tell if X is trans by wing shape/size/colour”

Of course, this is all bs

Especially since different races have different wing types 

Its all just racist, sexist, transphobic bs

It is very rude to touch someone’s wings without their permission

Depending on the context and place touched, its even assault 

Getting to touch the underside of your partner’s wings with your hands is the equivalent of ‘secound-base’ or something

And close friends hug each other and cuddle into the inside of each other’s wings

“Jessie gives the best hugs. Their wings are just so soft”

“Please keep your arms, legs, and wings inside the ride at all times”

Man-spreading but with wings

Just people with wings in general

ATTENTION DRAGONKIN AND OTHER SCALY FRIENDS

If you don’t know about scalemail, I’m about to blow your mind. 

LOOK AT THIS SHIT 

It comes in all colors of the rainbow, even white with clear scales for fluffy/frost dragons!

The lovely owner of this shop is making two pairs for me, one for my dragonkin gf and one for my dragon-hearted self. She will custom-color your scales and you get to pick plastic or aluminum! She’ll design a pattern for you in any style you want. These are my GF’s! 

The best part? Unlike other scalemail bracers that are shorter and pinch or pull skin that are $55 for a single piece, these are only $36/pair! $46/pair for aluminum scales! So not only are these super cheap, but they can be custom sized and colored for less than a single ready-made piece of the competition’s! They also make them longer to cover the full forearm and the top of the hand.

Day 9 of PixThril. One I’m passionate about. While looking up reference images, it seemed like space junk was almost unidentifiable with their strange shapes. So I went with that.

“it might help if you just let it out, __.”

“you don’t feel hot to me. is it a headache?”

“let me hold you awhile.”

“you get any last sleep last night? how about food? you had anything to eat since yesterday?”

“let me get you some aspirin.”

“you’ll feel better once you eat.” 

“something is bugging you, something is making you nervous.”

“you’re going to bed? at seven o’clock?”

“all healing is done from the outside in.”

“look, i don’t want to be – i’m not being too rough on you, am i?”

“once i tried to kill myself, how’s that?”

“listen, a bloody nose is nothing.”

“i don’t know what happened! i don’t know! i’m sorry about everything!”

“nowhere. just taking a walk.”

“maybe you gotta feel lousy sometimes, in order to feel better.” 

“how bad? razor - blade bad?”

“i can’t! i can’t!”

“sometimes, people say stupid things, because they’re stupid.”

“i need to sleep. let me sleep.”

“all right. make fun. it’s the thing you do best anyway.”

“everything’s jello and pudding with you, __.” 

“you keep at me, make me talk about things i can’t talk about, i can’t!”

“i didn’t mean it, i’m sorry. please. don’t be mad.” 

“a good, healthy problem needs a good, healthy solution.”

“people don’t change on command from other people.”

“give yourself a break, why don’t you? let yourself off the hook.”

“sounds like a chapter heading to me.”

“you don’t understand. it has to be somebody’s fault. or what was the whole goddamn point of it?”

“crazy world. or maybe it’s just the crazy view we have of it, looking though a crack in the door, never being able to see the whole room, the whole picture.”

“a little advice, kiddo, about feeling. don’t think too much about it. and don’t expect it always to tickle.”

“what things? i want you to tell me.”

“and the world is full of pain. also joy. evil. goodness. horror and love. you name it, it’s there.”

“and what about tomorrow then? and all the tomorrows to come? why can’t we talk about it? why can’t we ever talk about it?”

“you can’t feel pain, you aren’t gonna feel anything else, either.”

“that’s what happens when you bury this junk, kiddo. it keeps resurfacing. won’t leave you alone.”

“life is not a series of pathetic, meaningless actions. some of them are so far from pathetic, so far from meaningless as to be beyond reason, maybe beyond forgiveness.”

“i give a damn about everything you do.”

“so how does it feel to be home?”

“people use people according to their own needs. or don’t use them. when a primary need is one of safety.”
