Say hi to...

Circe!

Named before i listened to epic because i just always fucked with greek mythology but i can 100% picture her singing Puppeter.

A diva- and on her rigth as she's a songstress-or well was going to...

Songstress are those who learn the song of the ocean and sing accordignly.her,who knows how to use each kelp and poision. that's rigth seawitches! you scan specifically tell by the "tattoes" She has on her tail.

Sadly Circe was separated from her matriach too soon and therefore knows but little on how to sing along with the tide. so sad.

She's mean but it's not personal riverfolk aren't too keen on being crowded pods only go from 20-30 individuals at best which is considerably small for seafolk in general.

Cora is the one assigned as her trainer and altough she doesn't like humans much, this one is slowly proving to be talented...maybe even worthy.

//As you may have guessed, marine life is one of my special interests! 😆 I've loved sea creatures since I was a wee one!

And to answer your question, I think if Kitty were a fish she would be something that shoots ink, since she's into ink and paint and wants to be an artist/animator. Maybe a cuttlefish. If Kitty was a mermaid, I think she would have a beta tail!

Cuttlefish definitely!!! And the patterns a cuttlefish can make can hint to Kitty's artistry too! ^^

Omg I love these tails!!! So soft looking ^^ I think my favorite is the third picture. The black patterning also kinda looks like ink! ^^

[ghostposting-hours]

Here have tf ocs as the fish :] Putting it under the cut bc I don’t normally write fics on this blog

Hazard chirped softly, small hands grabbing onto a hand much larger than his. His mother floated on her back, gently cradling the small shark and his siblings against her chest. The water around them was shallow, gentle, and warm.

His mother smiled a gentle, warm smile. Above them, stars twinkled and glittered like glowing plankton.

The peace was broken by a distant rumble. His mom’s face fell as she looked to the distance, watching as distant storm clouds rolled closer and flashed with lightning.

Suddenly, the ocean was angry. It no longer cradled them like it did before. The rain came and it stung like hell. It felt like needles against his gray skin, stinging over and over and over again. Thunder roared in his audials. He clung to his mother and siblings like a lifeline.

It’s a dream. It’s always this dream.

Despite that, his mother slipped away into the waves, disappearing like a ghost. 

Freezefire held his right hand tightly, tears silently streaming down the little orca’s face. Paradox held onto his back as tightly as she could, the flying fish trembling and hiccuping with each breath. Crux had her arms wrapped around Freezefire’s neck, the orca keeping their arm wrapped around the smaller beta fish. Savage grabbed onto his arm, the manta’s little claws digging into his skin. Havoc held his other hand, the other little shark barely holding on.

She turned to him and said something, but he couldn't hear her over the roar of the waves. 

A slow, horrifying realization dawned on him. Where were Feral, Tempest, and Typhoon?

The rest of his siblings were nowhere to be seen, lost to the waves.

You're dreaming. They’re safe. But it doesn't make you any less afraid.

The storm was pushing them closer to shore. Through the rain, Hazard could hardly make out a tiny, rocky beach. On all sides of the beach sat sharp, jagged rocks, prepared to spear any one of them on the hard edges.

He felt Havoc and Freezefire let go of his hands.

He panicked.

He tried to call for them but his voice caught in his throat. Suddenly Paradox and Savage were gone.

He began to cry.

The ocean was relentless. It was angry at him. 

No it wasn’t.

He was getting closer to the rocks.

The waves around him swelled and pushed against him, smacking him against a hard rock. Pain in his back blossomed as the rock scraped against his skin and fin, no doubt leaving scratches. The waves pulled back and pulled him with them. The waves relented and held him gently for just a moment before they came crashing back down.

Hazard closed his eyes tightly as the waves spun him in the water, constantly pushing and pulling him in all directions.

A wave slammed into him and he felt an explosion of pain in his face as he smacked face first into a rock. The edge of the rock scraped against the right side of his face, hard enough to draw blood.

You’re only dreaming but you can still feel the pain. It feels so real.

He passes out.

You’re still asleep.

He comes to on the little rocky beach, the rain still coming down and the sky still dark. You’re still dreaming.

Crux is hovering over him. Her optics are wide with fear, which softens upon seeing him awake. She says something that he can’t hear over the ringing of his audials.

He tries to sit up but the stinging in his back makes him lay back down. He tries to open his right eye but is met with blooming, burning pain. His face is wet and warm. I’m bleeding. But I’m still dreaming.

All of his siblings are around him, holding onto him. They’re sobbing and crying. Feral tucked themself into his side, the lionfish’s little spines gently brushing against his scraped up skin. Tempest was on his other side, the lancetfish’s back fin bristled up in fear. Hazard couldn’t see Typhoon from his position on the beach, but he knew that the little eel was close by. He felt the telltale little prickle of electricity that he felt whenever his little brother was close by.

They surrounded him. They all held him. They cradled him. They’re holding you right now.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

He awoke in the same pool he did every morning, just deep enough to cover him while he slept, with salt water that always tasted slightly off.

He was awake, in the same white concrete room he always woke up in.

The scars on his face stung momentarily, before the feeling faded away with the clarity of his dream. He could feel his heart pounding against his ribs, practically threatening to break out. Icy cold panic and fear crept through his veins. 

You’re okay. You’re safe.

The feeling of fear and panic took longer to fade as he glanced around, doing a mental headcount. Freezefire practically lay on top of him, their face barely above the surface of the water. In her arms she held a familiar ocean blue eel and purple lancetfish. 

A dark blue and pinkish red manta ray was pressed against his side, a deep blue and yellow lionfish snuggled safely in its arms.

A gray mako shark, a little red and purplish-gray betafish, and a magenta and green flying fish were tucked safely in his arms.

Everyone’s here.

We’re…we’re okay. We’re safe. We’re okay.

The last little remnants of the dream and the panic it brought faded away as he finished the headcount. 

He turned slightly, gently poking Freezefire awake to start the day.

Yaassss exactly

not naming names but i hate this character design trope

[pjackk]

The cute cashier at the used above ground pool store was talking about how he thinks its stupid as fuck that i was going to try yo smoke fireworks tomorow and it realy made me upset so i bought a bunch of betafish from pets mart and stomped on them with cleats in front of him but he didnt give a fuck and spit gum in my eyes and spanked me

[grimmla-arts]

;v; I love him so much my discord chatter decided we needed to make a betafish fighter with a bit hook hammer <3 I haven't made a ton of fish folk but omg his little face

[starwrighter]

What do the Batfam look like in your "Not a baby (yes you are)" fix?

Like specific descriptions & stuff?

I REALLY want to make fanart, but be accurate to your fic & your idea!

Maybe also a small description for Danny & some changes he might go through so I can also draw him?

I look forward to any response!

(I'll give you what leviathan appearances that're set in stone since Babs, Steph, and Cass still need a bit more thought.)

Bruce's species is closely related to the gargantuan leviathan meaning he's pretty big like so big he shouldn't be living in the crater. He mostly lives in the larger more open areas but really he should be living in the void. He's more long than wide like a snake with thick pitch black scales covering him like armor. He's one of the few leviathans with "hands" four clawed fingers on each of them. He keeps the head shape of the gargantuan leviathan's with six glowing white eyes. basically a huge freaking underwater snake with a mouth of razor sharp teeth.

Damian's a hybrid between Bruce and Talia (A ghost Leviathan) he's just big enough to wrap himself around Danny's base once but he's not done growing yet. Like Bruce he's long and snakelike but he lacks the visual scale armor all over his body. Only his forehead, chest and arms have the pitch black scales. His fingers are clawed extremely sharp but he's only got four on each hand. the rest of his body is semi transparent and pale like the ghost Leviathans. He's got what looks like blue, yellow and green stripes on him but those are really just organs and blood vessels you can vaguely see through his skin. He's got some short tattered fins that run along his the sides of his body which are dotted by a line of bioluminescent spots. His arms are kind of lanky like a cat that's not quite fully grown. He's got a similar head shape to Bruce but his jaw is slimmer, his teeth more crammed together as is a (inefficient) filter feeder.

Tim looks similar to a squid shark. He's one of the smallest of the batfam. He doesn't have any arms just two large dorsal fins on each side of his body and two long, thin electric blue tendrils below them that can clumsily grab things though he shocks everything he grabs. He lives in the deeper areas of the blood kelp forest so the top side of his body often has blood oil clinging to him to blend in. Like the squid shark he's got that freaky jaw and jets to propel him through the water.

Duke is based of the hover fish in color scheme his yellow body is covered in spots some of which are shaped like bats including a white spot on his main chest. He's got two blanket like fins at the sides of his body and his gills give off a metallic shine to attract prey. The chapter where we get a glimpse of Duke Danny describes him as snake-like but really he's thicker and more like a betafish in shape.

Dick shows some resemblance to an amp eel with his exoskeleton being like armor plating and his whole electric but that's where most of the similarities end. He's got javelin like fins and spindly arms that he uses for climbing they're can become electrified when he's stressed like the rest of his body. He's built to be extremely quick with a wide range of maneuverability but he's still too big for the shallows. He keeps his Nightwing color scheme of black and blue although the colors are more muted.

Jason obviously resembles the Reaper leviathan. He's got burn scars across his body and one of his fins has been torn in half. His head shape is almost indistinguishable from a regular reaper although he's got a few extra eyes two of which are dulled stained slightly green (dormant Kharaa) he's got a horn at the top of his head he uses to launch things at top speed (fish version of gun) He's bigger than any of the reapers and a deeper red in color it's only if you look at him long enough that you can realize his patterns are different.

As for Danny he's a little kid looking to be around the age of two or three. He's got fangs that inhibit his speech a bit giving him a bit of a lisp. His eyes are still blue but if he's in a darker area they glow a bioluminescent green along. His hair has patches of white and his ears are pointed.

(For now, only Tim has his humanoid form designed but I'll reblog when that changes)

//Anyone got any breed name ideas for a Lanturn crossed with a Seaking (Seaking father)? Looks a bit like a koifish mixed with a betafish

[starforgedthor]

i hate Tek Knight, however i need to lock him in a betafish tank with Homelander and some neon aquarium gravel

(Forgive me, going off of memory here, trying to find your posts on em XD) "Well for the celestial's specifically, Sun celestials are always out in the day, and they're always paired with a moon or an eclipse, and eclipse is sort of an inbetween, fills the roles where needed" She gently touches the glass. "And like other mermaids and such, they tend to take on the qualities of the fish species their lower half's are"

She nods. "Exactly. We have the great privilege to have all three in this tank, Moonmoon our Phantom clown is probably hiding in his favourite spot." She walks over to the second tank in the room. "And in this tank, Sun and Moon our Betafish are in this one." A yellow beta potters around the tank cleaning and organising shells and rocks.
