Wiggles And Waves

Sun-drenched forest on a green day in Bridal Falls, BC.

i've had a creeping feeling that my faun kintype is actually a theriomythic type, and looking into faun art on this here webbed site i think i've confirmed it.

depictions of fauns (modern depictions, anyhow) always project a level of sapience that doesn't line up with my noemata. my fauns are not humans with goat legs - they're a different animal entirely.

tool use is more on par with corvids than humans. language is simple. we mimic humans the same way humans mimic cats, with no knowledge of deeper meaning. we don't wear clothes.

so! i'm recategorizing the fauns as theriomythic type, rather than kintype.

unhinged thirty days of otherkin challenge, day 23: you hear a scratching noise around the corner. What does your kintype do?

the fauns check it out, no hesitation or caution! <3

sleepyhead puts a hand on the hilt of their sword, and waits a moment to see if the source comes into view. no use getting yourself into trouble if you can avoid it, and boy, does sleepyhead want to avoid it.

unhinged thirty days of otherkin challenge, day 28: how many fingers do you have and why?

not sure about the fauns - either four or five on each hand, with the outermost fingers functioning as thumbs.

sleepyhead has five on each hand, same as humans do.

why? don't worry about it.
