ares and riddle are always fighting over their dorm rules lol

the second one is kind of an au because ares and the faes dont exactly mix well together but ares would eat any kind of trash you give them so i had to make the lilia joke sorry--

aaaand the three gremlins try really hard to follow their dorm leader instructions to be the best ramshackle students but the kidnapping part is always the most difficult one~

[cheerpark]

yeah maybe i SHOULD draw the main couple together more often what a concept

Aphos is an alpha tidal fury (tidal class) who prefers to travel in the waters with her sisters

Actually the runt of the family who somehow gained alpha status thru unknown means, the smallest out of the group

Their dark gray-blueish coloring helps them blend underwater, are able to hold their breaths underwater for a very long time

Fuck the lightfury get a design thts LOADS better

Calendar used in Aphos. It's origin in dated to at least 5000 prior to the story. Most probably created during the fall of the Eastern civilization then taken by The Mer.

¹After what Elves took it for themselves adding the 13,5 month due to 'darkmoon' appearing once 7 years in that time.

After Humanity took dominion over Aphos the calendar was changed to remove 13,5 month and try to 'humanize' the names. That meet with actual split in Aphos time and had to be changed to avoid date problems.

2050 years prior to actual time a treaty of Olysium was made which made both calendars take the same system but humans consider the 14 month to have 17 once per 7 years instead of a new month all together.

(The names of the months are probably taken after Ancient rulers of the Fallen Empire, like the Elves named their month after their first ever King not serving the Forest-Mother.)

Hi!! I'm trying to get over my overwhelming fear of crane flies, is there any way you could supply some fun facts about them? Specifically pedicia albivitta but there's so many species and not a lot of information I can find about them

Well for starters all crane flies are entirely harmless. They don't have mouthparts capable of biting and can't sting or pinch or anything. If they fly at you it's because they don't see you or register you as something to avoid, not because they're attacking or have any reason to land on you.

Despite common belief and sometimes being referred to as mosquito hawks or skeeter eaters, they do not eat mosquitoes, and are in fact incapable of eating them because they don't have the right mouthparts.

Most adults don't eat at all, but if they do, they eat nectar, pollen, or sap, or just drink water. They really only live long enough as adults to breed (1-2 weeks), so there's not much need to feed.

Some aquatic crane fly larvae are thought to eat mosquito larvae, but I'm not sure I've ever seen a reliable source on that. Larvae can be either aquatic, semiaquatic, or terrestrial and what they eat depends on their environment, but mostly I've seen that they're detrivores, so they help with soil health like other decomposers. They're also a big source of food for other animals like predatory insects, spiders, frogs, fish, and birds. Probably bats, too, I imagine. So they do play an important role in ecosystems!

Also they can be really beautiful! Some of them even mimic wasps with pretty black and yellow stripes. I'll show you my fav species, though, the eastern phantom crane fly:

What a beauty! Look at those stripey socks. Adorable.

Also they sometimes hang from foliage in the cutest way:

Lol. Silly.

twst ocs~

theyre the ramshackle ocs based on nightmare before christmas that i mentioned like a year ago lol

dorian erin and aphos are based on lock shock and barrel, and ares is... well. you know. theyre the boss.

also did a fanmade ramshackle uniform and magical “pen” that the dorm leaders have because i mean, if its an official dorm now, they kinda need to lol

ares was the first one to arrive [they became dorm leader by default], and the next year, dorian erin and aphos arrived and became first years as ares went to second year, so the three little devils are in the same grade as yuu/grim/ace/deuce/etc [dorian erin and aphos all use he/they, ares uses they/it only]

so they welcome yuu and grimm in their dorm when theyre both officially accepted as students and at least yuu is not alone and scared yay <3

Difference between Aphos and Cyclis

The main setting is called Aphos due to it existing for longer and being used for a paper RPG and a writing outlet for myself. After a few weeks of existing as just a paper RPG universe, it became a full world. The action takes place in the south of the originally not named world, on the subcontinent of Aphos. This part of the world is cut off from the other parts of the world due to a sea of fog and a gigantic forest to the north, both being unpassable.

Cyclis, the world, got its name after a character made by a friend who defeated the final boss of the RPG while being the last one alive.

By going into more info for this blog the tags would be mostly explaining one part of the universe, not counting the ancient lore and races.
