How would you guys feel if I shared stuff about the original story that inspired the Salt and Sea au, the one I originally made the mer/siren biology slideshow for?

[beeshoesometimesdraws]

Super mega extremely important question for your Salt and Sea au:

Platonically but like

Can I kiss the sirens and mers?

…little kiss on the forehead :3

Hehe >:D

Yeah you could give em a lil kiss on the forehead…though I’d be careful which one you choose (both species-wise and character)

[beeshoesometimesdraws]

Any Salt and Sea au related asks? I want to word vomit about sirens and mers and pirates 👉👈

Can be about the lore or characters or even my interpretations on siren/mer biology and behavior, I just wanna ramble

(also the concept for this au is gonna change tho still thinking things over so *shrugs*)

ANOTHER QUESTION BEFORE I FORGET I SWEAR ITS THE LAST ONE FOR NOW AND I’M SORRY IF YOU’VE TOLD ME BEFORE BUT

Is it common for merfolk and sirens to become friends, family or even mates? Or are their cultural/social differences, behaviors and etc whatever else I forget or can’t word properly too different for it to be a regular occurrence?

YOURE ALL GOOD MAN, I LOVE ALL THE QUESTIONS <333 (also nah I don’t think I’ve talked about this before at least not in depth)

It’s not very common at all, actually kinda rare really for sirens and mers to interact in friendly ways—usually interactions are either aggressive or neutral, the most that usually happens is a curious mer/siren getting too close

Most mers know to be wary of sirens as, though it’s not an often occurrence, sirens have been known to eat mers and sirens can be equally wary of large groups of mers as they could pose a threat

The fact that merfolk and sirens usually live in very different waters also means that there’s less interactions between them which further decreases the odds

BUT that being said it isn’t unheard of:

Sirens and mers being friends has happened before as well as sirens and mers being mates, though the ladder is far less common due to aggression/fear between species and cultural and behavioral differences, and is even looked down upon in some siren/mer communities

As for family?

Sirens who choose a merfolk as a mate may stay with the mer pod (if they’re even allowed to) though other times the mer may leave the pod and choose the traveling lifestyle most sirens have —either way one has to give up something even if it becomes a long distance sort of thing which probably wouldn’t work out anyway given how close sirens are to their mates (fun fact: most sirens are monogamous and mate for life while merfolk are more often polyamorous and may choose different mate(s) each breeding season)

Sirens, especially parents who have lost their own pups have been known to steal mer pups or eggs though it doesn’t always work out well given the differences in their species’ needs

The same has happened with mers though under differing circumstances (because if a mer tried to steal a siren pup it would end very badly); mers have taken in lost or orphaned siren pups before though again most mers are too wary, some pods even being known to kill lost siren pups in order to prevent any future problems or competition (something something the brutality of nature something something)

And as for mers and sirens starting their own families together…it’s probably not possible, or at least the chances are slim

This is because of the anatomical and genetic differences between the two species: mers lay eggs and sirens don’t which means they are most likely not compatible with each other (though admittedly I am still working things out for this so it may change *shrugs*)

Artist Ask Game

Hey everyone! I've seen many artist ask games going around on Tumblr over the years and I've always wanted to make one of my own. If you're reblogging from someone other than the source, and you'd like to help foster a bit more community here on Tumblr, consider sending an ask to the person who put the post your way! :) Without further ado:

1. When did you start creating art?

2. Do you do art in any professional capacity? (Graphic design, commissions, animation, etc.)

3. What are your favorite subjects to draw? (OCs, your fan faves, etc.)

4. What's your least favorite part of the body to draw, if any?

5. What piece of art are you still proud of to this day? (Show or describe)

6. Favorite and least favorite angles/perspectives to draw?

7. Who are some artists that have inspired you?

8. How would you describe your art style?

9. What's the longest you've ever suffered from artblock?

10. How do you deal with art block?

11. Have you ever drawn a meme with your OCs or canon characters from a fictional media?

12. Ever participated in a multi-artist collaboration (3 or more) such as a multi-animator project?

13. What kind of art do you personally not see the appeal of, and why?

14. Do you prefer to make fan content or original content?

15. Do you/have you participated in Artfight or art trades in general?

16. What was something you used to struggle to draw with confidence/ease, but have now mastered?

17. Your personal favorite works of art (not made by you) are...?

18. Do you typically use filters on your art?

19. What's your biggest insecurity when it comes to your artwork?
