REBLOG IF YOU'RE A DRAGON

#something something on the Internet nobody knows you're a dragon

the beauty of online anonymity in the alterhuman community is that i don't know what any of you look like irl, so when i read your posts and picture you speaking them aloud, i imagine that a wolf, or a crow, or a dragon, or whatever creature you may be, is the one speaking

Wake up. Stretch ur wings and spine. Curl into your hoard pile and make loud growly yawning noises. Stay up for hours with your humans and then go back to sleep. Dragon life as of late. I feel good about myself.

So you're just sitting in front of your computer, doomscrolling to distract yourself from the nonsense dysphoria telling you you're supposed to be a dragon. Suddenly, you hear it: someone knocking at your door, very, very insistently. You freeze at this, immediately considering just ignoring them instead of having to deal with whoever- but then you hear a loud clickety-clack, and the sound of your front door slamming against the wall. Panic grips you as you hear loud thuds and something skittering on the wooden floor, and you lock your wide eyes with the dragoness. She looks harried and like she hasn't slept for the week. Because she hasn't, she's an empath. One you've driven up the wall without meaning to because she's only supposed to sense other dragons' emotions, and none are known to live in your neighborhood. So she had to follow where the radiation of misery was the strongest. That led to you.

The dragoness somehow conveys all this with just a glance as she walks up to you, and takes out some metal bits to weave an enchantment into. This she throws over to you, and you reflexively catch it-

only for a wave of relief course over to you. You suddenly feel them very vividly- the weight of horns on your head, the wings on your back stretching out cramps you didn't know you had, the cold floor your tail is laying on. Even the sensation of your clothes against your scales. For the first time, you stop feeling almost crippled.

The dragoness' posture slumps at the same time with yours. She slurs out a quick explanation that it's an enchantment that creates a sensory illusion of what you're supposed to be, as she doesn't have the gear for a transformation ritual at the moment. Then takes a few wobbly steps towards your bed to pass out on it.

You sit there, still processing the emotional whiplash and euphoric from affirmation through the guilt you caused the dragoness, and wonder if it would be too much of an ask to edit the illusion to make you a girl dragon when she wakes up.

Technically a lot of lizards have a "3rd eye", a patch of photosensitive cells on the top of their head that's used for regulating a reptile's circadian rhythm and pineal gland functions. They can't "see" out of it, only detect light. It's really fascinating stuff!

en.wikipedia.org

Parietal eye - Wikipedia

Not too big of a stretch a dragon would have one too. I'm pretty sure I'd have one in dragon form. Perhaps yours is just further developed than a regular reptile's!

Any other dergs got an odd number of eyes? I have three

Unhinged 30 Days of Otherkin Challenge: DAYS 1-3

Challenge Rules

I messed up with the first 2 days cuz I'm new to tumblr and brain no worky. So I'm just making my own post for my first few responses now! Also yeah I did days 1 and 2 together cuz I just got excited.

DAY 1: what type of dirt would your kintype eat?

As an ice dragon.... Probably permafrost?? But I would never actually seek it out as a meal or anything obviously

Alternatively, glacial sediment. Or sand/mud from lakebeds/riverbeds/seafloors. I could see those getting in my mouth when I eat, as I'm partially aquatic and most of my hunting takes place underwater.

I would prefer not to eat dirt tho thankyou

DAY 2: warm or cold ocean water?

Cold! As an aquatic ice dragon, that's literally my habitat! Either oceans or lakes.

DAY 3: describe a pie made from three ingredients your kintype would eat, crust included, go

Some kinda fish pie!!! My diet would consist of mainly fish or other aquatic life. Raw and cold, too. So! The 3 ingredients:

- Seaweed Pie Crust

- Any kind of raw fish as filling

- Caviar topping

------ Served Cold like a cheesecake, perhaps even frozen

Hungry just thinking about it... But it's definitely the kind of thing I will never eat IRL. This body's human instincts are saying "that's disgusting!" but my dragon instincts are saying this sounds fucking DELICIOUS.

Unhinged 30 Days of Otherkin Challenge: DAY 7

DAY 7: does your kintype migrate

HELL NO. How the heck is a dragongirl supposed to take her giant pile of treasure and riches with her if she migrates??? Do I just... Leave it behind???????

aimlessly looking for dragonkin stuff makes me upset. Some people only thought of the most typical of it all don’t yall???

(so mad I would breath fire EXCEPT I DO NOT! Not every dragon have breath weapon! Not every dragon are of fire element! Not every dragon are scaley spikey membranous winged lizard! Not every dragon hoards or are into crystal, gold, and what have you!!!!)

Unhinged 30 Days of Otherkin Challenge: DAY 13

DAY 13: hey, how's it going

Honestly, fucking amazing right now. Today was great. I ran until my lungs nearly gave out, and caught my second wind. I think this is what they call a runner's high? I could literally feel the wind under my wings. Gliding across my scales. It was breathtaking.

ok this wasnt very unhinged but im happy rn ok
