OMG HE LOOKS SO CUTE THANK YOU

I think about Finn's idle animation being crossing his arms or putting his hands on his hips when he's annoyed, but also covering his mouth whenever smiles or laughs like... at all and then I get sad.

Selkie Lore

No one quite knows if selkies are merfolk, fae, or beastmen. Some classify them as a mixture of all three, scholars argue what clan they belong too. Whereas selkies just see themselves as selkies alone, not connected to the other clans. They are few in numbers though, some are more social, whereas others led solitary lives. 

Leopard seal selkies are the most solitary, and one of the largest of their clan. In their seal skins, the largest members reach upwards of 4 metres [12.6 feet] long and 500 kilograms [1,100 pounds]. While in human form, it is far more common for them to range between 190 cm to 205 cm tall. 

All selkies can morph between seal, human, and the in-between stage. Should someone pick up or touch their coat, they are bound to them until the person sets them free, a contract. For a selkie to willingly give someone their coat is a marriage proposal.

While in human form, selkies do keep features of their seal forms, such as their teeth, markings and speckles, and have large eyes and pupils. They also have extra webbing between their fingers and toes. Their hair being the same main colour as their pelt.

Ségdae Lore

Ségdae was raised by a crabeater selkie family after they were found on an ice sheet with no sign of their mother anywhere. Due to being raised by crabeater selkies, Ségdae is far more friendly and outgoing than other leopard seal selkies; they only met one other and she stayed away, swimming back to her mother.

They do feel a bit different and outcasted, as many other selkies, sea creatures, and mers often swim far away from them, afraid. This has led them to wear a cheerful persona around others, but in private they are much more quiet and introspective. They have a hard time making friends, and close relationships, and is only really close to their adoptive family. It doesn’t help that people often stare at them, as they are above the regular maximum height for a leopard seal selkie at 210 cm; making them stick out in a crowd.

But when they became an adult, they took all the things they were insecure about as a child and came to love them. Their height. All of their freckles. Even the scars that they got from getting caught in a net many years ago.

Career

They decided to become a teacher due to an art teacher they had during their teenage years that helped them through some difficult times. They also are very curious and encourage others to try something at least once.

TRAPPOLA DON’T PUT PAINT IN YOUR MOUTH, THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT!

Ségdae can be best described as… eccentric. The professor has a hobby of saying the outmost deepest, and life-altering tidbits of advice and knowledge and then proceeds to be a doofus and joke around.

During breaks, they can be seen in the teachers’ lounge chatting – or gossiping – with Trein and Crewel. They also have a habit on popping into classes when they have a free period, helping out with grading papers or starting an improv play in Trein's class to get the kids interested in that royal from the Queendom of Roses.

They cannot stand Crowley. Tries to avoid him whenever possible or make his life a living hell. They only refer to him as Dire, just to show that they have zero respect for him… They also put surströmming in his office and the entire wing of the school had to evacuate.

Unique Magic & Coat

Their Unique Magic is called Selkie Song, and it reveals their deepest desires; to both them and Ségdae. They can only use it if they’re wearing their coat though.

Not a part of their UM, but they also do have a selkie coat that they have on them on all times, or in a chest with several locks so that no one can steal it. It's the pelt of a leopard seal, fading from a creamy white on the belly and fading to a dark slate grey on top. It has lots of freckling and a few scars on it, corresponding with their own. Wears it under their regular clothes.

When they don’t think Crewel is looking, they do look at his coat; they think he looks very posh, a beautiful coat. Avoids touching his coat due to Selkie customs. They nearly had a stroke when they accidentally picked it up when it fell off his chair one time. Crewel just shrugged it off as a Ségdae thing.

Other Notes

Despite being very imposing, they are very kind. They often help out other sea life when in their seal form; penguins often still look terrified when this happens though.

Often blows raspberries, and makes their seal calls when excited. Also flaps their hands when they're happy and talking about their interests.

They go into their seal form when they feel overwhelmed, swimming in the depths away from the chaos on land.

Tends to say things very bluntly, and it has caused them to butt heads with others in the past.

Keeps a surfboard in their office, and would love to bring their class to the beach for some lessons.

Got the nickname Tony from Sam, and it soon caught on to Vargas and Crowley. Trein calls them Professor Tonyx, whereas Crewel calls them Ségdae. Their students usually call them Dae.

Their eyesight is meant for underwater, so they're nearsighted on land with some astigmatism. They have both glasses and prescription goggles for labs.

Methinks I should give ya'll a better idea of what Finn's teeth look like (wow that sounds weirdly negative but dw it's not)

Creepy teeth n stuff under the cut

Okay so regular cookie cutter shark teeth look like this:

(Yes that's a cookie cutter shark) and I think some type of cookie cutter shark mers have these teeth, like Morrigan. It's similar to the tweels'teeth.

However, the cookie cutter shark mers that reside in the midnight zone (like Finn's family, but that's a complicated history) adapted to have teeth like that of an angler fish:

Though unlike angler fish, their teeth aren't translucent. So Silas' teeth look like that.

Now Finn has a weird mix of these, but he takes more after Silas.

Also, a cookie cutter shark's jaws look like this:

It's what enables them to bite those perfectly circular holes (which is where they get their name from) so Finn can do some pretty fucking weird things with his mouth

[thehollowwriter]

Wip comic- after her overblot (which drains her magic) she struggles to walk and stand bc of how much her body relies on her magic. Her octo form is tied to her magic and her human form USES magic to stay like that. She’s both too weak to stand bc it used to be raw tentacle strength holding it up (but now they are weak weak) and too weak to transform

Poor Nami 😭😭😭 why must you hurt her in this way (<- hypocrite) I hope she recovers alright

[thehollowwriter]

It's preferred that it's fully tied up without loose strands, but it's still tucked behind his ears which is pretty good. The main thing is that it isn't hanging in your face or completely loose, which far too many of the characters do lmao.

Azul Ashengrotto aka the only twst boy to actually adhere to kitchen uniform and hygiene rules

[thehollowwriter]

Yes, but Mama Ashengrotto 100% drilled kitchen rules into him from the beginning. This guy adheres to the rules because 1. Legal repercussions like you said 2. He would rather die than be unhygienic, especially with food 3. He knows he'll disappoint his mother

(He would also disappoint me, a student who takes hospitality studies and has lost her mind at these boys in the kitchen 😔)

Okay this was really difficult for me but I did it! I made a ship card for Azul amd Finn. Thank you @ramshacklerumble for the link to the blank! Finn's picture and coffin icon were made by @boopshoops

(I wasn't sure if I should fill in the last one but if you must know Finn is more kinky Azul is more vanilla- *gets shot*)

Thanks Disney

[thehollowwriter]

Did you guys know I was really into creepypasta

[thehollowwriter]

My favourite thing about poly octoquartet is that Finn can never ever judge any of my moots' ocs for their tastes in men without being a massive hypocrite. @ramshacklerumble 's Gia is dating Ace? @theleechyskrunkly 's Paige is into Idia? @distant-velleity 's Yu with Ace (again)?

Finn's gotta shut his trap because he's literally dating the capitalist fish mafia, all three of whom are utterly bizarre and unhinged in their own ways. At least Ace is just a bit of an asshole teenager, the tweels are probably from q legit mafia family and Azul is, well, Azul.

[thehollowwriter]

behold these buffoons. these fools. these absolute morons. they’ve been crushing on each other since freshman year and never got around to doing anything about it (because they’re idiots) until junior year. and it actually took floyd…yeah that one…it took floyd to get them to sit down to talk about it because he’s been watching them dance around each other for years and frankly got a little bored of doing so.

Cutiepie

I've been neglecting Paige far too often these days, so I decided to draw him in a similar hairstyle as I did with Aurinelle yesterday! (I drew his eyes too far apart and too big I WILL cry)

I want Finn to meet Yuuta tbh. I want Yuuta to get creeped out and Finn to like him bc he (Yuuta) reminds him of Azul as a child and he is very biased lmao
