#slugcatkin

The spear is a comm for @morbidlyabuizel ^^

(PART ONE??..) I posted theese on twt earlier but I really really REALLY liked those so !! Here I go feeding some of my rain world tumblr audience on my kinblog.

But it IS in topic in some way! I'm a slugcatkin and GOOODD how I love this game I am so obsessed with it i think everybody knows my fixations by now but whatever. Playing this is truly the experience of how hearthomes feel + the state of kinsidering any new creature you like /jokes aside lmao go play it plz

Edit i made of my kintypes about being a trans alterhuman

Or, things that make me feel better when I'm species dysphoric, and may also help you. Sorted alphabetically and by diet, with prioritisation for more 'niche' concepts you may not have considered (e.g a carnivorous slugcat eating meat is.. obvious, y'know?).

I designed this to be as close as or reminiscent to wild meals as possible, you could say.

Carnivorous

Beef shredded - This is not what batflies would taste like. This is what my heart insists batflies would taste like.

Bugs - If you can afford them, crickets and mealworms are common options. Worms are also eaten in many cultures! Crunchy and meaty.

False crab - Hazer texture and taste! Very cheap too in my experience.

Jellyfish - Do your part for the ecosystem; these fellers are actually turning into a huge problem. Watery, bland, but as you'd expect salty. Commonly eaten with soy sauce, in soup or just as dried strips.

Pork jerky - Batfly tastey. Chewy and meaty.

Sardines - cheap, incredibly filling, has that nice crunch from the edible bones. I eat these straight from the tin when there's nothing else to scratch that aquatic scug food instinct. Tuna is also great. Cod is a low mercury option.

Herbivorous

Blueberries - I buy these when they're reduced price and then cache them in my current shelter via fridge freezing. Unpredictable taste and texture is either a boon or a repellent depending on your preferences.

Blue cheese - just kind of fulfils the urge to eat mold, both slime mold and gooieducks. Commonly sharp and tangy, but many types. Experiment!

Basil and Chia seeds - Actually my mate's idea! When you hydrate them, they get a squishy outer membrane like bubblefruit has. I like to drink basil seed drinks, of which there are both dairy and fruit varieties. :)

Corn on the cob - Add whatever you think would make it delicious. I like soy sauce and garlic on mine.

Figs - Blue fruit substitute 2. Hard to describe unless you've tasted it yourself. I suppose fruity and nutty simultaneously maybe?

Nata de Coco - Sweet and chewy, another great bubblefruit substitute.

Pomegranates - ..Like a pomegranate. Sweet and tart.

Saturn/flat peaches - Mutual agreement in the comments that these are very much a go-to for dandelion peaches! Light and airy, juicy, sweet.

Seaweed - Salty, crunchy when dried and again very variable. I'm planning to harvest spiral wrack off the beach soon, a common species here which reminds me of glow weed and I'm told has an olive-like taste.

Feel free to reblog with additions, I am planning to make this an entire 'series' of resources and would appreciate more ideas to add to the posts; I'm aware the carnivorous section in particular is lacking, I am not a carnivorous slug outside my fish consumption so I don't have any experience to pull from.
