Hiiiii, this is Al speaking, welcome to the secondary blog in which I reblog about random cartoons and sometimes draw stuff. Get ready to see a lot of stuff about Ed Elric and a slowly revolving door of miscellaneous fellows. (20+ yrs, she/her kit/kits, college student, professionally chaotic.)
BenRookKai napping in the grass + a small shipping chart with my headcanons of the Ben 10K timeline.
I think Rook would join their relationship a bit later after Kai and Ben open up their marriage after the time war (if we follow canon standards) (but if it was up to me, these three would be part of their own policule waaaay before Kenny even existed lmao)
I still need a species specific to the western islands (unnamed) and maaaaybe one for the southern continent— though that one is mostly of mixed communities and hybrids.
(I'll be tagging this and further parts as #buzzkill aquatic so feel free to use that tag too if you use my aquatic expansion in your art/animations/fanfics etc)
Far beyond our reach, in the depths of space lies a world full of raptor-esqsue beings known as 'rakii'. They live upon a planet called Rek, orbiting a yellow star named Yil, settled far in a spiral galaxy called Tontor. Within the next 2-3 cosmic years, Tontor will collide with Arro, a neighboring one armed spiral.
But that's not a worry to them at this time.
Behold, all the various species throughout the planet of Rek.
I shall now be working further on the very world around them and the stories of their unfortunate upbringings with false gods and societal stress as they are going through a culture shock.
Here's what utiks look like outside their shell. Just little brains in jars, workin robots. It was all they could do for themselves in their scramble for self-preservation.
They are able to survive outside their suits for around 12 hours, as it's usually long enough for the fallen being's comrades to come to their aid and be placed in a life-support pod until another mech body is provided. The small brains are also capable of sight, though very limited. As like starfish, utiks have small "eyes" at the end of each limbs.
They have a slimy texture similar to jellyfish as they constantly secrete a layer of slime to protect their sensitive skin. The slime which the rakii would harvest. However, they are never to directly harvest the slime from the utik's bodies, as they risk harming the individual. Along with some mild ethical concerns. Instead, they pull the wiggly pilots from their beds and vacuum the leftover substance from there.
Another neat feature is the utik are capable of regeneration. As long as proper mass is still intact, the individual could potentially grow back as good as new. However, they are basically walking brains, as depending on damage, they may temporarily lose certain bodily functions, or worse, memory.
