centipede kitty ......

The funniest moment from an interview conducted as part of my research on the domestication of 💻 the 8-bit ATARI:

"More and more people come with their children, with families. And young people also show up, some of whom are exploring the demoscene, or rather observing it, trying to understand it as some sort of phenomenon. They attend these gatherings to watch old-timers tinkering with smoking, ancient gear. And no one really knows what they’re actually doing. It's a bit like... we've become a subject of study and observation. What you're doing is kind of an example of this."

i read that minecraft bats are based on a variety of different bats. maybe merry has curled ears like a spotted bat. with the bonus of having a little festive bow. i think merry would read books about beetles and Ponder merry's next meal (of beetles... or moths.... maybe some mealworms... a bountiful feast, truly) you have no idea how happy it makes me to see you joyfully post about a minecraft bat in your library that you took the time to get a nametag and name the bat merry and the fact merry stook around too. it warms my heart a lot

there's actually three!!!! and theyre all nametagged!!!! merry was the first, then lavender came along and now there's celementine too!

kitty plushies . for the soul

and an intersex colored version, for fun (and since the rainbow parts of her can change colors)

and additional doodle unrelated to the last ask
