#giant Burmese python

[tender-crescent]

Is it giving britney? Can’t remember whether this was an anaconda or a giant Burmese python

[undertale-writing-times]

Is there any possibility that Pinks - in one story - manages to get help and escape the lake? Say, his s/o wants to let him be more free so they build something that can transport him the short distance to the ocean.

How would Pinks react to it?

So sorry for the wait of this! I wanted to write a whole little fic about it, but I've been thinking too much about it haha.

So a long story short, I don't think he would like it too much. Yes, the lake isn't his home, but it also is? It's where he had been staying and living for so long.

Plus, honestly, he's too used to living in a place where he could find whatever he wanted to eat and not have to run away from anything that wanted to eat him. I don't think he would be able to survive in the ocean for too long.

He wouldn't know what places were safe, what was safe to eat or not to eat, and honestly, he might not be able to handle the salt levels. He's too used to the high salt of his lake.

Snake School is Back in Snession!

Here’s the new and improved Orochi High snaracter lineup! A few things have changed (They’re sneniors! O-Hi is in Snokyo now! There’s a new guy!), but for the most part, they’re the same old snaracters you fell in love(?) with seven years ago. Enjoy, and keep those snoots astute. The best is yet to come!

Updated snaracter descriptions below:

Truffle Amaguchi

Species: Ball Python (Silver Bullet Morph)

Length: 0.7 meters

Age: 18

Truffle Amaguchi is an ordinary girl starting her final year at Orochi High. She was born in Osnaka and moved with her mom and little brother to Snokyo two years ago.

Truffle is a romantic with very little real-life experience. She loves reading shoujo snanga, and has somewhat unrealistic expectations as a result. Her hobbies are reading, collecting bones and natural hisstory items, and going to the museum. Truffle does well in school, but has been struggling recently, putting her university hopes in jeopardy.

Truffle’s favorite snekcessory is a cute red bow with a mouse skull in the middle. She has a tiny kink on the tip of her tail.

Mochi Shinda

Species: Western Hognose (Wild Type)

Length: 0.5 meters

Age: 17

Mochi Shinda is a short Western hognose who was Truffle’s first friend at Orochi High. A mischievous prankster, she comes off as a bit insensitive but cares more than she lets on. She has been known to play dead to get out of unpleasant situations (like gym class).

Mochi enjoys cooking for her five younger sniblings and inventing new dessert recipes.

Mochi always wears a cool spiked taillet.

Marzipan Ono

Species: Burmese Python (Hypomelanistic Morph)

Length: 4.5 meters

Age: 18

Marzipan Ono is a big girl with big headboobs and an even bigger heart. Soft-spoken and shy, she does her best to stay out of the way but inadvertently causes accidents and injuries because of her size. Marzipan loves animals and has a pet bunny named Minchi. She volunteers at the local zoo. Her favorite animal to work with is Meg the giant ground sloth, who is currently pregnant and expecting a calf soon!

She wears a tiny pink bow on her tail at all times.

Atheris Hispida

Species: Hairy Bush Viper (Wild Type)

Length: 1 meter

Age: 18

The mysterious, venomous Atheris Hispida has always counted on his “tough guy” status to keep sneople at tail’s length, but when Truffle stumbles (literally) upon his deepest secret, he fears his reputation is at stake!

He wears his tie loose because he thinks it makes him look cool (it does).

Nise Ashinashi

Species: “Kingsnake”

Length: 2 meters 

Age: 19

Not much is known about secretive new transfer snudent Nise Ashinashi. He moved to Snokyo from Nagasnaki and he comes from a wealthy kingsnake family, but that’s about it. Nise keeps his cards close to his…neck? Or is he more tail? He has a distrust bordering on prejudice towards venomous species, though he is warming up to Yakamashii. 

Whatever you do, don’t steal his beanie, no matter how tempting it is. Ever.

Yakamashii Ogoe

Species: Western Diamondback Rattlesnake (Wild Type)

Length: 1.2 meters

Age: 18

Loud, outgoing, and sometimes annoying, Yakamashii Ogoe is nevertheless Atheris’s closest friend. They grew up together in the same neighborhood and bonded over shared experiences (and tastes in video games).

Despite carrying a nasty hemotoxin in his fangs, Yakamashii is mostly harmless. He excels at sports and hopes to become captain of Orochi High’s successful Koudo ( 絞道 - "Way of the Wrap") team this year.

The O-Hi tail band he wears shows off his school spirit!

Monoko Mori

Species: Monocled Cobra (Albino Morph)

Length: 1.5 meters

Age: 19

Regarded as the most beautiful girl at Orochi High, Monoko Mori has many admirers. Despite being confessed to on an almost daily basis, she has turned down every single suitor so far. Though she is not unkind, her quiet demeanor and disinterest in dating have earned her the reputation of being cold.

Her striking albino coloration, while attractive to many, makes her sensitive to light and susceptible to sunburn, so she is often forced to limit outdoor activities.

Her hood piercing stands in stark rebellion against her otherwise pristine appearance.

Hachi Mitsu

Species: Ball Python (Bumblebee Morph)

Length: 0.8 meters

Age: 18

Unlike most of his peers, Hachi Mitsu seems to have it together. He knows what he wants to be when he grows up (video game designer), and he knows what he’s got to do to do it (get good grades and make it into the prestigious Snokyo Institute of Technology). He and Marzipan become fast friends after he offers to tutor her in snath.

He has a neurological condition called “the wobble,” which he inherited from his dad’s side of the family. He’s pretty good with a power chair, though–just watch your tail!

Hatchi has contacts, but prefers to wear glasses at school because he thinks they make him look smart.

Jun Aoki

Species: Emerald Tree Boa

Length: 1.2 meters

Age: 18

Jun is a striking emerald tree boa that lives with their grandmother in an apartment building near the coast. At school, they usually keep to themselves, doodling in the margins of their homework or painting elaborate landscapes in Creative Club after class. Most snudents consider them unusual and intimidating, but few have taken the time to really get to know them.

They enjoy collecting shells with their grandma and keep their favorite, a beautiful textile cone, on a cord around their neck.

My headcanon for what 'pets' the AC Protags have:

Altair: He would definitely have some sort of 'raptor' rehabilitation or sanctuary. Maybe even a breeding program for endangered species he houses.

Ezio: Being from a rich family, I'd have to say he would be a 'horse girl' and would have quite a few on his family property. Maybe even show horses with prestigious pedigrees with a stallion he studs for profit. With a singular big draft horse he rescued that simply gets to enjoy top notch grain and oats and miles of green pastures.

Ratonhnhake:ton: He volunteers at an animal sanctuary where he can interact with bears, wolves, Bob cats, and mountain lions, but he has a pet hedgehog at home that he adores. Maybe even some domestic 'descented' skunks instead of cats. And a ferret or two.

Desmond: It has become my personal headcanon that Desmond would have various snakes, lizards, frogs, and amphibians as pets. Mostly he breeds ball pythons, as they don't get overly large and are pretty chill. He also has a variety of tree frogs, a leopard gecko with a bad attitude, and one giant albino Burmese python he had to build his second bedroom into an enclosure for. But his most memorable pet, if only because of its attitude, is the monitor lizard he found as a baby. It acts very much like a dog, if dogs could climb vertical walls and has hooked claws and a whip like tail.

NAGA BULLY AU!!!!! this is so niche oh my god

if u don't know nagas are basically snake people from religious mythology. the top half is a human, while the lower is a snake. there's all different kinds of interpretations of how they look, with some people perferring them to have a humanoid top half BUT keeping the snake head and patterns. like the serpentines from ninjago 💀

in my opinion, I see them with their snake patterns starting from the top of their head to the tail but keeping a human face and front torso of their human half if that makes sense?? I'm really bad at explaining things if u couldn't tell

anatomy designs!!

now that Ive given a breif description- I'm gonna be focusing on derby and bif because I'm unfortunately very biased and autistic (also tumblr is limiting photos anyways). feel free to give species hcs for other characters!!!

derby is an albino gaboon viper. they're my favorite snake ever and I could yap about them for hours and this choice is very much out of bias

look at this diva

facts about gaboon vipers!!!

-they do this thing called rectilinear locomotion (heavy bodied species of snakes do this) which makes they teeter in a straight line rather than slither. it makes them look like inch worms

-despite being the heaviest of any venomous snake, they have the fastest strike of any snake species

-gaboons have 2 inch fangs which is the longest of any snake. very impressive cheese wedge head ass

-they are impossible to spot in stray leaf litter, only moving their pupils and slowly puffing out when seeing a potentional threat bigger than them. they stay in the same spot for days on end until an unfortunate critter steps on their stupid faces

BIF!!!!! he's a giant albino burmese python with orange rings because.... ginger. he looks like the first picture but much bigger

burmese pythons don't need venom -- they use their entire body basically made of pure muscle to constrict prey and suffocate them. they are just big babies idc

that's all I need sleep

[salamanderinspace]

Four babies sleeping in their cribs Unsuspecting people Experienced reptile handlers and novices alike All of the giant constrictors have demonstrated an appetite for dogs Frightened residents have discovered Constrictor-snakes have found warmth and shelter Constrictor-snakes have been spotted sunning themselves Police departments have issued community alerts Pet constrictor-snakes may suffer from starvation Firefighters already risk their lives Authorities have confiscated A teen reaching for her alarm clock A 15-foot, 140-pound Burmese python brought to a Halloween party A family filed a $50,000 lawsuit A teenager making lemonade started screaming

MY MAIN SQUEEZE (a “found” poem) by Jeremy Cantor

These are the opening words of the first 15 incident reports (out of a total of 59) from the Humane Society’s 2021 list of people who have died from “large constrictor snake related incidents” in the United States since 1978. Frontier Poetry

[puddleorganism]

Ok but imagine holding those giant prehistoric centipedes like a pet burmese python send tweet

[unnervinglyferal]

I have a inherent desire for large reptiles in general

If you look at the things I want as pets a lot of them are large reptiles

Argentine black and white tegu 3-4 feet depending on sex and 5-15 pounds

Common snapping turtle 10-18 inches long (though some get to 20) and 10-35 pounds

Madagascar giant hognose 4-6 feet

Burmese python around 16 feet and they get fucking heavy too, heaviest burm was 403 pounds

I was looking at boas and Coastal carpet python as big snakes to keep without a permit

Boas usually hit 10 feet and so do the Coastal pythons

...There's probably some oddly specific exact word in some language for a person with an insatiable desire to be surrounded by massive reptiles. And there's an above zero chance that this word is a slur. I'm honestly just impressed by this point.

See now you got me thinking of AU mixing…

How would MITB soap react to Naga!soap,, or naga!ghost for that matter? Or Giant!ghost reacting to either of them?

Fuck

So many possibilities 😭

Even the hybrids too oh god

I’d like to think somewhere in the background is some version of Price watching them all and paling thinking Oh god they’re MULTIPLYING

mitb soap seeing a fuckin huge bigass snake !! would honestly probably give him a bit of a fright at first, mostly because he’s just never seen anything like a naga before. (giants are normal. nagas are not.) but, since they’re both soap, they’d get along like fire on wood (great for them; terrifying for everyone else.)

& in my heart, any version of soap will be enamored by any version of ghost 💀🧼

giant!ghost, on the other hand, would probably be significantly more cautious. but the image of giant!ghost holding naga!soap like someone holding a big burmese python is in my head now & i love it 🥰

[msburgundy]

i had the weirdest dream last night and the more i think about it the less sense it makes lol

the first major thing was that i had gotten a burmese python, and for some reason she lived outside just like free ranging

and then my parents were visiting, and my mom had driven away to go grocery shopping or something and it started raining really bad. the whole yard was flooded by the time she got back and we had to like dodge snakes and caiman and whatever else to bring the groceries in

but then i saw my snake at the far edge of the property, in a tree, and it looked like there was a person there and the two of them were struggling. so i went to go make sure she wasn't being stolen and/or killing someone

and as i approached the person, who was a giant, started to kind morph into a grizzly bear

and for some reason i was fine with this and because the snake wasn't being stolen because it wasn't a person i decided there was nothing wrong and started to jog back down the driveway

which of course made the bear chase me. and then i was in a standoff with the bear but my bear growl sucked and it wasn't loud and it was really humiliating

and then the bear just decided my territorial display was good enough and started walking away

and as that happened, with no one else around, he morphed back into that giant human again

and i intuitively understood this to be bigfoot, and apparently bigfoot is a giant capable of performing illusions

so do with that what you will

[so-very-small]

*Kicks open your ask box*

Sorry I'm late to the slumber party, but DID YOU HEAR that Hairband is dating a HUMAN! Yeah, the human down the street with the two dogs! Hairband is gonna end up dog food, but he won't listen to me! The nerve!

oh my god I DID HEAR. Hairband is such a doll, bless his heart, but you don't mess with humans who have crusty white dogs. "Oh it's a little one!" BABY. YOU'RE EVEN LITTLER. But you know how stubborn borrowers are over their first giant loves. Mine had a burmese python and an English degree. Yeah. The relationship didn't last.

[ratsoh-writes]

Mavi and Kovu are making a sacrifice called Wine will kill them. Kovu announced he found his own home so, his old room can now be a snake pet room for kyra.

remember the giant tank that could fit a Burmese python that Kyra got to her wedding? Kovu and Mavi chipped in together and got Kyra a baby Burmese python, a albino morph too. that's their Christmas gift and most definitely a reason why wine will hunt them down.

Shdhhdhdhd I’ll say Artemis and kovus snails were for the enclosure coffee made then

And good job kovu!!!

[cleverwordsandotherstuffilike]

Those poor foxes. It's fucked up to think hunting animals is acceptable behavior. Unless you're talking about those giant invasive s-o-b snakes in the Everglades.

[laferrassie]

on a related note i just remembered the aaron anecdote that he was single for a long time bc he owned two giant burmese pythons

[ysabelmystic]

Had a dream last night where a giant Burmese python moved into our basement.

We named her Jessica and she ate deer in our neighborhood. When she died (fat and happy), the neighborhood came together to carry her to the lake where we set her on fire Viking style.

That’s it.
