if you peek just behind the clouds , that is where you'll find home <3

(both images taken by yours truly!)

hiii, I'm back! could I have a satyrkin-based recipe (I'm thinking easily forageable or homegrown ingredients like mushrooms and root vegetables)? I'm vegetarian and would prefer something that can be made with just one pot or pan. Thanks!! :3

Woodsy Stir-About

Foreword: Growing up a bit broke we always did a lil something we called a Stir-About! It's a one pan dish, and can be easily adjusted to for whatever you like! We used to do a breakfast themed one for any meal because the ingredients were cheap and it was filling. Here's a more woodsy take on it! I didn't use true measurements because it really is an "as you can find it" and personal taste type dish .

DISCLAIMER: Use extreme caution when foraging and never eat something you can't 100% identify. Only take what you need and nothing more. Make sure you have the permission of private land owners before you forage on their land. A delicious dish is not worth risking your health or getting into legal trouble.

Ingredients:

Mushrooms (whatever you can safely forage! I recommend chanterelles and/or morels depending on your area!)

Burdock root (if you can find it)

Dandelion greens

Potatoes

Garlic (wild or otherwise)

Eggs (optional, but adds a bit of protein)

Salt and Pepper to Taste

Oil (use one with a high smoke point, like vegetable, canola, or avocado oil)

Directions:

Wash your vegetables! Either use water or a water bath with a slight amount of vinegar to clean them. To wash morels if you find them, shake the dirt off, then submerge in a bath of cold salt water and soak to clean.

Slice up all your veggies! You can peel the potatoes or not, it's really up to you!

Put some oil in your pot/pan of choice, although I recommend a deep pan.

Add your potatoes, and gently fry on medium to medium high until soft enough to stick a fork in them. Stir occasionally.

Add your roots next! Cook until soft.

Add your mushrooms and greens; cook until both are soft but the mushrooms aren't rubbery.

Season with salt, pepper, and any other seasonings!

Crack in your eggs! A good rule of thumb is to crack 2 eggs for each person you're serving and 1 for the pot.

Season again! Always season in layers.

I hope you enjoy!

hii long time no see :-) here are some recent otherkin doodles

incredibly rude that I am currently physically incapable of doing that poof-up-and-ruffle-feathers things. i think that would fix me. just one full-body feather wiggle.

Okay my life got unexpectedly busy so I dont have art for this, but:

10 concepts for architecture, furniture, and minor lifestyle details when writing societies of winged people (any wing type)

1. Since people fly all the time, most of the buildings are probably up higher, with walkways between them. Winged people would invent amazing suspension bridges long before they invented a wheel (see also: the mountainous regions of central and south america, where wheels are not very useful, but bridges are extremely important)

2. Doorways would probably be wider and taller to better accommodate wings, no matter how they're held at rest (ex: if you want fairies with dragonfly wings, their rest position is out to the sides. So wide doorways would be important.) And doors would more likely be sliding doors rather than hinged doors (so you don't have to worry about stepping back and aside for the door, you can just walk through and not risk having your wings bump stuff)

3. Speaking of wings bumping things! Tall ceilings, wide hallways, and absolutely zero breakable objects at potential wing bumping height. The walls are basically bare from shoulder height on down.

4. Hammocks and nests instead of beds. Any form of sleep furniture must be built to let people comfortably sleep on their stomachs, possibly curled up into a fetal position with their knees beneath them. Lots of pillow piles. In the same vein, any lounging furniture would be built with either no back or a very low back. Maybe things like couches and chairs that just have a single armrest to lean against, but no back. Lots of sideways lounging. Any tables would have stools rather than full backed chairs.

5. Wing care is important. This will vary based on the style of wing you're using. Feathery wings will more likely lead to a culture of social grooming and feager combs. Maybe every bedroom has a wall with a feather comb to rub up against. Chairs that seat two so they can help each other groom their feathers. Bat wings would need regular bathing routines, probably some very nice large tubs in their homes for a proper washing, also a social grooming culture around that. Insect wings, I'm not sure exactly. They don't need cleaning the same way. But they are easier to damage. And we know from real life that they can be repaired and replaced! So perhaps a society of people with insect wings would get very very good at prosthetics and wing modification.

6. Wing flapping creates wind. So maybe people would hang up windchimes to hear when people come and go. Theres a lot of wing flapping involved in the landing process, so wind chimes would be an effective way to notice when someone has just landed at your doorstep.

7. Big windows, easily opened. Sometimes you just dont want to use a door. The door is the formal entrance, but windows and skylights are the causal entrances and exits.

8. Consider nomadic winged people who migrate seasonally: they would probably develop a lot of lightweight gear to help them migrate with all their belongings. Hammocks, communal huddling, possibly advanced cartography skills, special devices to distribute weight between multiple fliers carrying a large object together. Special carrying devices to hold children, elders, and the injured.

9. The outsides of every building would have many perches, especially social buildings. Rooftops are just another social space. Ladders are commonly used by anyone who cant fly for any reason.

10. Pretty much anything they make is going to be lightweight but hard to break. More carved wood dishes than ceramic ones, archery more than swords, very light clothing with open backs. But paper maybe not so much. It blows around too easily. Maybe they invent voice and image recording devices sooner than other people so they can more reliably record information in flight.

And that's 10 ideas for world building with winged people! @wolfeyedwitch I hope this is helpful to you! And to anyone else who may have been having trouble thinking up little details for their own winged folks.

Shapeshifterkin culture is “adopting” random cool shit you see. Sometimes you see an image/drawing and are like “yup thats me(now)”

I want to hold ppl with my wings , I'll give the best hugs

May I get a moodboard for a raven, I would like you to include themes of being friendly and shiny thing

Raven with themes of being friendly, shiny things and nature for anon!

sometimes i look at my shadow creature kintype and im like "wow that came out of nowhere" and then i remember the intense gender envy i got from endermen at age 10

Dermatillomania is a condition that is for those of us that were meant to have wings to preen.
