I'm really into vulture culture, and here's my first project! I've kinda been procrastinating because of depression but hopefully I'll finish it soon. Honestly I have no idea what animal this is from, I was thinking maybe a fox or young coyote? It was near a creek. I do have the bottom jaw and all of its teeth, the bottom jaw was broken so I need to fix it first. The plan is to paint the skull black and the teeth gold, then to paint gold cracks on the black to look like kintsugi pottery. I'm thinking about gluing pink fake flowers into the eye sockets and mouth. I have a white rabbit pelt that I have no memory of receiving that I'll sit it on.
Yeah idk if anyone here cares but I suddenly got an idea for an oc on the bus ride home the other day and I've quickly grown attached to this character so I want to talk about him! This post is super long but whatever.

So he ended up having far more Greek inspiration than I originally planned. Whoops. My thought process was if I was gonna make this character a harpy, then I wanted some connections to Greek mythology. His name comes from the word xenia, an ancient Greek concept of hospitality. It's also a reference to Zeus as he was sometimes called Zeus Xenios due to his role as a protector of strangers. I also went with the Zeus reference because I wanted to give him lightning magic. The nickname from Rook comes from a drink called absinthe, which has wormwood as an ingredient. It was called "the green fairy" in various literature. He's frequently called Magpie because of his stealing collecting random objects, mostly shiny ones.
I guess I'll start archiving my account on The Tale of Food. There's 20 days until one of my favorite games is gone for good, and I can't stand the thought of forgetting anything.
This first post will be random things because I already know that my favorite food soul will need maybe 2 posts just for him.
This is main blog worthy to me so get ready for a lot of screenshots and yapping.

The last of the new ocs! I hoped to post this right after Desmond's bio but I've been busy since then. Oh well, it's here now though!
Name: Corvus Diable
Birthday: August 20th (Leo)
Age: 150
Dorm: Diasomnia
Unique Magic: I honestly don't have anything for this rn
Dominant Hand: Left
Homeland: Briar Valley
Grade: 2nd year (got held back his first year)
Club: Pop music
Best Subject: Math
Hobbies: Singing
Pet Peeves: Being told that he's "wasting his potential"
Favorite food: Watermelon
Least Favorite Food: Leafy vegetables
Talent: Pitch perfect hearing
Species: Fae (bird-like)
Based On: Diablo from Sleeping Beauty
Likes: Music, taking care of his hair
Dislikes: Tradition, peoples' expectations for him
Pronouns: He/him (he/she? He's working through that rn)
Orientation: Asexual and gay
Hair: Ankle length, black and very curly
Eyes: Yellow with black scleras
My main direction for this character has been that I wanted someone who stood out from the Diasomnia cast. That led to a character that rebelled against expectations from his family and homeland. I considered making him half-fae like Sebek, but I thought he would stand out more as a full blooded fae while being this rebellious. I don't remember if this is canon or from a fanfic, but I read that fae rarely move from Briar Valley, and when they do they normally don't return. That was a major inspiration for this character. Corvus had expectations of using his skills with math to get a high paying job placed upon him from a young age, but his only interest is music. He started to rebel from his family and standards in fae culture. He plays the drums, electric guitar, and sings. He has a begrudging respect for Malleus since he's royalty, but besides that he has conflicting opinions about him. He gets along pretty well with Lilia since he's the only other fae Corvus has seen that's like him, but he's wary of being too close to him. Corvus enjoys being around Silver since he's so chill, but he'd fight Sebek for free any day, any time (and would absolutely do so if he wasn't so closely linked to Malleus). He's a big fan of any kind of showy makeup, he really tries to keep up the rockstar look. "Diablo" is "devil" in Spanish, but I have absolutely no understanding of Spanish, so I made his last name the French word for "devil" since I have a small understanding of French. I need to cut this off here because I'm still kinda busy and need to finish something before more happens.
Discussing the stims and fidgets that my ocs do! Inspired by a headcanon post by @twistedwonderlandshenanigans talking about the stims that the twst cast do!
--------------------------------------------------
Xenio:
ADHD icon. Their brain is usually all over the place so they have a LOT of trouble focusing and keeping his energy down. Especially if she's expected to "behave well". If he needs to keep it more subtle, he'll stretch a lot. It's definitely not the same as how she normally stims, but stretching helps a little at least. If he's free to stim as he needs to, then oh boy he's not holding back. Most notably, making weird noises. Xenio does chirps and trills in her normal speech pattern regardless, but that gets turned up to 11 when he's especially happy. When they really need to focus on something that they aren't interested in, he might pull at his hair or have a fidget cube on hand.
Lumi:
Because they work as a waiter at the lounge and get important information for Azul, they do have an act to keep up. But considering that persona is someone cute and ditzy, there's definitely room to fidget. Lumi doesn't really stim much. More so they can be very restless and find it hard to not do as they please. Lumi sways a lot and frequently changes which foot they put most of their weight on. Someone please give this mer a weighted blanket. They don't know that they exist, but they could really use one.
Desmond:
This boy recklessly puts things in his mouth. If it's a small object with a potentially good or interesting texture, then he's chewing on it. Marbles, rocks, bottle caps, pen caps, straws . . . the list goes on and on. He accidentally ate part of a straw once and gave Jack a heart attack. He also just leaves to go jog for a minute. Desmond will literally be in the middle of a conversation, then the Need to Move feeling will kick in, and he'll just say "Brb I need to jog down the hall a few times and then I'll feel better." Another thing is that he always has his bandana on his neck, he loves it because it mimics feeling in a smaller space. If he doesn't have it, he'll start rubbing and squeezing his neck.
Corvus:
He doesn't like stims that draw too much attention, so he might do several subtle stims at the same time. He also bites his tongue a lot, and has made it bleed because of his fangs before. He also bounces his leg a lot. He likes pop boards and fidget rings, but he doesn't like using them in public because of the noises they make. Corvus wants to stim so badly, but normally he won't allow himself to do much unless things are Bad.
Victor:
He doesn't stim too much when he's happy, just mostly when something's wrong or Bad. He picks at the skin around his nails or scabs a lot. He knows that he shouldn't, but he just can't stop himself. If his intrusive thoughts get really upsetting, he might hit the heel of his hand against his forehead.
Mallory:
Mallory's stims usually have a lot to do with his face. They'll make popping noises or clicks a lot. A common one is that he'll scrunch up his nose or blink a lot. When Mallory stims, he frequently gets stuck doing it and finds it hard to stop. They might pull at their lips a lot as well.
Writing is still giving me panic attacks, but I do want to get back into it. I think writing for my ocs instead of fics would be easier rn, so:
Does anyone have advice for improving your art? I know practice is important, but other than that I don't know much genuine advice. I've tried digital art for the past year, but I'm drawing with my finger on a not so good tablet so it's not ideal. I think that traditional art is a little easier to control since I can actually feel myself drawing. I usually draw with no plan in mind because I think my art turns out better that way, but I want to learn how to draw my favorite characters.
