[polarwooly]

I have made a fan oc for @jayrockin's Runaway to the Stars! And also invented an underwater cigarette! (It's just a lil bug that's got mild poison that you chew on.) I just love scuds so much they are so shaped....

RTTS OC Sketch Comic - Communication Error

In which Maristel realizes they've been sorely misreading Hearts' facial expressions and body language.

---

Translation notes - Maristel's Portugese Panel 8: The Rant- "Caralho você realmente é um idiota! Elu falou várias, VÁRIAS vezes para chamar elu de Hearts, e você ficou chamando elu de Langntha por causa de sua obsessão ridícula em pronunciar coisas certinhas**! Você deixou elu desconfortável o tempo todo Porra! Como se elu não fosse bem-vindo."

"Fuck* you really are an idiot! They told you several, SEVERAL times to call them Hearts, and you kept calling them Langntha because of your ridiculous obsession with pronouncing things just right! This entire time you’ve been making xem uncomfortable, Fuck! As if they’re unwelcome! "

*literal translation is penis, but usage and severity wise it’s closer to fuck

**certinhas - right in every single detail

Panel 10: Slang- Mané - a slang term for idiot, specifically implying someone who makes plans that they believe are infallible despite reality

Original Script and Translation provided by @apollo9235, who also owns Maristel and Tuuvarii [diver avian in panel 4].

Runaway to the Stars is by the fantastic @jayrockin right here on tumblr dot com. Centaur expressions chart in panels 6 and 7 is directly taken from this post on centaur facial expressions.

Hearts and Rohan [tailed spacer in panel 4] belong to me.

Some ambitious plans.

has this been done yet

brisiit, a diver avian OC i've posted before. they needed a redraw anyway, but i particularly wanted to switch up their colour scheme to avoid unintentional treason (their makeup was green before...)

they consider themself a carnalist socially, although whether their fashion counts is debatable. their main (/ possibly only) hobbies are recreating alien cuisine and arguing

yuuup

Got bored so I turned my alien bois into RTTS characters.

My OCs for @jayrockin's Runaway To The Stars! Drawn by the fantastic @translunaryanimus, Who has just posted a short comic with them as well as two of his own OCs!

In alphabetical order we have:

Aalok (she/her, they/it) - The ship's AI, here we see her in her preferred RC unit, that little toy robot on Maristel's shoulder. They acquired a functionally infinite supply of this toy when an entire container full of the product was recalled and left in the distro center. For reference they are 10cm (~4 inches) tall. When not in an RC unit Aalok represents itself as a monogram of its name. Since they have so many spares, it's not unheard of for Aalok to intentionally destroy or loose one of the units in service of a joke.

Maristel (They/Them) - 'Captain' of The Screwloose. (Info here) They take over piloting whenever Aalok lets them, but primarily they deal in negotiations with clients. While no where near as good as someone who specifically studies the languages of other sophonts, they can speak (or sign) all the common languages well enough to ingratiate themself and their crew to clients. Their pronunciation is great, but word choice and sentence construction is often lacking. Maristel is a unique GMH and also a biomodder, they take the attitude that: "If I'm already gonna be a weird croc-taur, might as well have fun with it and do what I want!"

Tuuvarii (she/they) Tuuvarii is the engineer for The Screwloose, They have a hormone imbalance that makes it so they're permanently 'in spring' much to the horror of other Avians, but it doesn't really get in the way often. Maybe because of this, maybe not, Tuuvarii is also a Carnalist, and almost always paints carnalist colors over her bright markings. Both her parents are Diver Avians but somewhere up the family tree there's a skimmer so she ended up with a more prominent crest and larger ears than most other Divers. Ears which they've done some modification to, circle cutouts and grafting skin from the webbing on their hands. Probably gonna post detailed timelines for these goobers once they're finalized and also a short story about the group meeting Hearts that I'm currently writing with @translunaryanimus. But until then I'll say this, the dynamic between these three is: Maristel & Tuuvarii- Besties Aalok & Maristel - Worsties Aalok & Tuuvarii - "Hello fellow shitster"

Runaway to the Stars OC/self-insert!!!

Some writing:

The group Flick grew up in wears silver chain earrings as their personal identifier, and everyone puts different charms on them, probably specific to accomplishments or life milestones in the family. The face stickers and bracelets are all personal decorations, but the charms are definitely symbolic of family things. One side of each earring is a clip-on, so if the chain gets caught on anything, it can just slip off rather than pull painfully on the ears. (If the round ears look weird, it might be from using an outdated reference image.)

I’m not sure if this pale yellow I gave them is a natural fur color for bug ferrets, because I mostly just see a range of brown to light pink in the official art, but the color *is* present in the green-to-white gradient of bug ferret ears, so I think it’s plausible as a less-common natural fur color. And it works better with the CMYK theme I’ve got going. (Ironic, when Flick can’t even see the M the same way.) (Obviously the blue and pink portions have been dyed, but usually the head is left un-dyed, so for there to be yellow there, it would have to be natural.)

If I remember right, Bug Ferret hearing isn’t as good as other sophonts, especially with layered/detailed noises. For Flick to love human music as much as they do, they likely already had hearing-enhancing implants when they got into it, or the sound wouldn’t have been as appealing. Only the most fast-tempo, densely-layered music for Flick. (Recommendations welcome.)

you know what i dont think ive ever posted my guys on here. now that jay did an art fight attack i have no excuse... these are my 3 human rtts ocs. they're part of a crew of Space Pirates lead by a horrible pygmy avian named seriit. the tailers (oscar & sully) are childhood friends, with oscar having been dragged into a life of crime by his bestie. bull (the typ human) has a mysterious past and is blasé about violence to a degree that creeps out everyone around them.
