#mixels headcanon

Probably depends on the tribe TBH, but I can see the Glowkies having bioluminescent green blood for example.

I was wondering what you will bout Mixels having physical disabilities? ( like an Electroid cant produce their own electricity or smth)

I could definitely see disabilities being a thing that exists in the Mixels world. I also feel like the Mixel world in general would actually be much more disability-friendly than our own since Mixels as a whole are so anatomically diverse that taking into account so many different body plans when designing things like architecture, transportation, household items, etc. would probably need to be done by default. I also imagine ableism won’t be as prevalent among Mixel society either since they're whole thing is about how you can achieve great things by working together and how what makes you different makes you special (at least until Mixopolis came in and ruined everything like it always does).

The closer Mixels are, the more consistent their Mixes will be. I use the Maxes and the Flain/Seismo mix as the reasoning behind this idea.

What do you guys think? Does that make sense?

Yeah I’d say that makes sense, how much a pair of Mixels like eachother directly correlating with how consistently they’re able to mix successfully is definitely something that would make sense. Kinda like this idea I heard about how humans will actually get more nutrients from eating foods they like. Though that does pose an interesting question for why Flain and Krader tend to create the same Murp so often…

I actually have some!

Whenever Mixels use a Cubit, they sometimes leave behind something called a “Cubit Seed” which is basically just a tiny little fragment of Cubit. When a Mixel comes across a Cubit Seed, they will usually instinctually pick it up and bury it in the ground somewhere, where it eventually grows into a brand new Cubit. What kind of Cubit the Seed becomes mainly depends on 2 factors: Where the Seed was buried and What kind of Mixel buried it. Let’s say for example that during a trip to the Swamplands a Spikel finds a Cubit Seed and decides to bury it in the Swamplands, that resulting combination of Mixel and Habitat would cause that Seed to become a Spikel/Glorp Corp Cubit. Rainbow Cubits are formed when a Cubit Seed is grown in a completely tribe-neutral environment, such as being artificially planted in a place like Mixel Park by a robot without any Direct Mixel contact.

DW Anon I got you covered! I don’t really have any fleshed-out culture headcanons for these guys yet so hopefully these anatomy/biology-related headcanons will suffice:

(BTW the other mods and anyone else feel free to reblog with your own HCs if you like)

Flain seems like the kinda guy who likes watching shows like Community and Brooklyn 99, IDK why he just gives off that kinda vibe for some reason. Though sometimes he will watch a few anime like Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood or Cowboy Bebop.

Vulk definitely likes more cutesy shows, and I’m 99.9% certain he had (or possibly still is in) a My Little Pony phase at some point. I can also see him watching things like Nature documentaries and cooking shows too. Though surprisingly he’s also a fan of Berserk of all things, who would’ve guessed…

Zorch is 100% the kinda guy to watch “Adult” cartoons, specifically shows like Family Guy and South Park, basically the cartoons that are really only labeled as “Adult” because of their graphic and shock-factor-heavy content. He has also secretly watched LITERALLY ALL OF THE SONIC THE HEDGEHOG TV SHOWS.

Burnard sometimes watches The Big Bang Theory, he has absolutely no clue what’s happening in that show most of the time but he just laughs his ass off at it anyway, which is actually a testament to just how unfunny The Big Bang Theory actually is… As for other shows he watches, the lad DEFINITELY Stans Uncle Grandpa.

Meltus has pretty similar tastes in television programming to Vulk, though Mel tends to watch much more nature documentaries. His allergies tend to act up whenever he’s outside the Magma Wastelands, so he can’t really go out and explore the rest of Mixel land and it’s wildlife that much without accidentally setting the hiking trails on fire, so the next best thing is to just watch the animals on TV without ever having to leave home!

And last but not least, the Grumpy Shrimp Man himself! Flamzer honestly seems like the kinda guy who’s really into true crime and detective shows, I don’t really know any specific ones I can see him watching but he definitely likes those genres. Also Breaking Bad, Flamzer has definitely watched Breaking Bad.

I thought you’d never ask!

Bisexual, he probably barely understands the concept of gender (he still supports trans rights though DW)

He has NO BONES. Not a single bone in his body. A true boneless bite of a Mixel. The closest thing he has to bones are teeth and maybe some claws or something.

The wings on his arms are removable, he’d never be able to walk trough a door otherwise without assuming a very weird position.

The dome on his eye not only provides protection from the elements, but it also functions similarly to a pair of glasses. Without it Niksput is basically blind.

He has the autism. It took him an embarrassingly long time to fully realize this (he was like, 12 or 13 to be more specific.)

sometimes he will just kinda stand there, and stare at someone/something or stare off into space for a bit. The other Orbitons are used to it but it gave Flamzer a HEARTATTACK when he first saw him doing it at like 2:30am when he was invited by Burnard for a sleepover.

he’s technically an Orbiton/Glowkie hybrid, because of this he has more patches of darker colour on his body and his eye glows a faint reddish-orange in the dark.

That’s all I can think of for now, thank you so much for asking about my boy!

Well personally I headcanon that Rokit is actually Niksput’s dad (jury’s out on who his mom was but she’s probably a Glowkie)

I could probably also see a similar situation with the Nindjas, with Mysto being the proud father/grandpa of Spinza and Cobrax.
