I do like how "let them cook" has become a part of modern slang.

The implication that letting [X] do their thing and trusting the process almost always results in a better end product than micromanaged bs is great to see being aknowledged culturally.

How nice! The camper can hug and talk to their friends until they can get a turn.

The ability to just shrug off enviromental factors and enjoy the beauty of nature without any restraint or worry for safety is one of my dream relaxtion scenarios.

The undisturbed silence in the dead of night is where Hiemal feels peace of mind, unchained and as one with nature.

Meet the #Arhulian species! They're creatures I designed, being in my mind since highschool. They are 2-ton psionics that are a novel fusion of mammalian physiology with arthropedal morphologhy. #monsteroc #furry #originalspecies #ocsky

Bought to life in this reference by @lepaondu.bsky.social

A visual reference to an "Arhulian" A creature with mammalian features such as fur, a mustelid shaped head, and bone, but also having arthropedal morphology, as depicted by their long bodies with six pairs of centipede like legs.

The image is a visual reference that depicts the creature from various angles, has a human analogue for scale, highlights various features such as their eyes and hands, and shows a few portrait close ups of their head.

The creechur of the forest!

I bet they make cool skeleton art.

I think at it's core, a furry is intrinsically tied to self expression. And "AI" is nothing but a glorified autocorrect that doesn't think, let alone have self expression.

A predator, with extraordinary senses, is chasing down their prey. Unbeknownst to the prey, the 'scuttling monster' knows exactly where they are, and is not 'looking' for them, but has sealed off the escape routes. Only when the prey has nowhere to run, do they learn there was never anywhere to hide

The red forest background is such a vibe. And it contrasts great with the green magic.

@bossmonstalv.bsky.social Bobert has become a proud father of 5 babby beans. The beanlets are smol and don't have fully developed sound cards, so they just beep.

He looks so happy!

A reference done by Yivah! The hands my Arhulians have are like one ones they have in mouse guard, with three clawless, conical digits. Arhulians have enough spikes on them their hands would be better suited for dexterity than combat.

Serious shoutout to furries for being the internet's #1 art patrons. At a time when interest in original and niche art is at an all time low and many other art spaces are gone, I appreciate you guys showing up to boost original works, buy art pieces & comms, & get vocally invested in stories & OCs.

Arhulians ingest prey live into their bodies. While maintaining their vitals, they feed off of their prey's psionic energy.

The prey is in a suspended, dream like state for up to a week. The Arhulian can even peer into their prey's dreams. #ocsky #monsteroc
