Me thinking abt how black culture and racism would've changed in omegaverse

If scent's genetic, do you think there would be "dirty scents" (Like scents people say are unclean despite them being like- Prairie grass or smth) and shit?

Oh yes absolutely, If we're talking scents I don't think it'd be the nature-ish ones, I think it'd be the ones to do with spices and warmth, maybe even a few smokier ones. Like cinnamon, saffron, cardamom, ginger, woodsmoke, maybe things like mahogany, or coffee.

I think the "good" smells for non-poc/black omegas would be sweet smells like, apple, peach, just about any sort of flowery scent, cake, vanilla, cotton, candy, honey, anything like this.

For alphas it's sea salt, eucalyptus, lemon, ocean, pine, sandalwood, ect ect. ofc, I think that the scents alphas prefer on other alphas is different, but I don't really know much about that ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

I also think that there's a difference between nature-ish scents and earthy scents, and I think the nature ones would tend to be the preferred (ex. Lavender or grass vs nutmeg or amber) I just think that smelling too warm or dark or heavy would be how a lot of black people would smell, and for some reason (it's racism) those would be classified as "too strong" or they "inherently smell bad".

And if a black person does have one of the more light and airy scents they're either classified as, "one of the good ones", unworthy of having their scent, or lucky, even though that's just how they smell...? Lol.

Some people even get products to cover their scent with an entirely different one, which brings an entirely different type of micro aggression where nonblack people start asking whether that's "your actual scent" and "what do you use to smell like that" and other low-key racist things. Like idk maybe that's just, once again, how they smell.

I'm sure black omegas are considered inherently less omega just because of their blackness. Like imagine an omega with a cinnamon and ginger scent being told their nest smells like an alpha, or even being accused of cheating because of how they smell.

Any hc’s about an polyamorous pack? (2 alphas 1 beta 1 omega)

I'll tag some of my favs to answer this instead. I don't wanna keep you waiting because I know I'm not good with poly headcanons. Lol

To most animal nonhumans, I highly recommend this PC game called The Wilds! It’s still in Early Access so it’s a bit funky at times, but it’s very good. $5 on Steam or you can torrent it. It’s an indie game developed by one man only, so I highly recommend supporting it.

It’s an animal simulator, and you can play as a grey wolf, grizzly bear, wild boar, mountain lion, red fox, raven, bald eagle, moose, red deer, or raccoon.

You hunt, find a mate, make a den, have pups, there’s unlockable skills, abilities, your animal has its own traits, and you can even customise the looks (e.g. different subspecies of wolves, different subspecies and coat colours of foxes), and a lot more since I’ve only briefly played it so far (personally I love playing as a fox since there’s already WolfQuest for wolves). All the screenshots are from the game page itself :)

Loving all these misceanimalis variants ive been seeing occasionally pop up.

Like miscecanis is used to describe the general community since thats where it started from but its sorta specific to wolves when there's so many other animals you could also make interesting dynamics from- and I'm loving the creativity I've been seeing.

I think the earliest variant I saw was Miscefelis or miscefeline (cat based), I don't remember when it was coined but I know I've seen it not long after miscecanis first started to pop up.

But I've recently found miscecuniculus (bunny), Miscevulpes (fox) and miscechropiter (bat) and its really making me realise there's a LOT of creativity we can take these base ideas to and ive been seeing some with their own different types of dynamics seperate from the alpha/beta/omega. I really want to see more of this kind of stuff

I feel like someone should make a list of all the variants tho lol because idk if there's more or just those ones
