Nerd-to-nerd communication
Something super pointless and self-indulgent I've had on the backburner for a while. I love trying to make the pieces they gave us fit together!
Al-AN and Robin would absolutely bond over learning about each other's biology. I could talk about this forever but I'll get into all of the headcanons I have for these two in another post eventually
Below the cut is another version with some extra bits and pieces and the transcription
Transcript :
Architect Anatomy
A. Architect "Brain" - Doesn't "store" information so much as allow for easy communication with the network
B. Brainstem - connects the information received to the central nervous/circulatory system
C. "Heart" - Circulatory system pumps the bioluminescent fluid to other organ systems and surface veins. Each node connects to a vast vasculature network
D. "Kidneys" - Organs that filter the bioluminescent "blood" and other bodily fluids, absorbing and distributing collected material
E. Nerve Center - Receives raw sensory data and filters it. Filtering can be unconscious or intentional
F. "Respiratory" Tract - Intakes gases or liquids and filters out material for use. Disposes of waste on exhale. Provides cooling to internal systems
The respiratory tract functions less like a set of lungs and more akin to a computer's cooling system, with the ability to absorb material from the environment to use in other parts of the body. It also would likely help the architect's body analyze the environment it is currently exposed to on a molecular level. It is also truly unidirectional, with the intake vents near the "collarbone" and the exhaust vents on both sides of the abdomen
The architect organ cache in-game felt like it was definitely not a complete model of the internal organs, so I wanted to come up with something to fill some more space. I also just really liked the idea of Al-An being capable of something similar to breathing, without having a respiratory system in the traditional sense.
Feel free to use any of this in your own headcanons if you would like :)
BONUS - a gif of all the layers!

you know what here’s my art hot take: if you are a YOUNG BEGINNER ARTIST, do NOT begin with the fundamentals. in my experience that will make art seem like a chore. you’ll get MORE frustrated then before because you are starting with something crazy complicated!! just start drawing! draw stuff you want to draw! then your art will develop from there.
because if you start with the fundamentals of human anatomy, but like drawing dogs, you’ll frustrate yourself because you don’t like drawing humans. you shouldn’t be worrying about being “good” at art if you literally just started. the fun thing about art is that it has no rules! you don’t NEED tutorials or anything!!! you can just go!!!!!

Wanna put my fingers in someone's mouth or vice versa. The texture on the inside of the lips is just so... it's not even purely sexual it's so fucking Texture. Stimmy. I wanna trace my finger along each tooth in someone's gums, have someone gently trail their finger back and forth under my lip. Soft. Very soft. And wet. But not too wet. Just enough that it's like. Such a texture, bro. The feeling of someone spontaneously putting my fingers in their mouth is something magical. It's sensual and sometimes but not necessarily sexual. It's just. Feeling. It's very intimate. I hope to have more irls who are down to do whatever. My experimentation phase will last a lifetime. I will rediscover the same feelings over and over again and be surprised and overjoyed as the first time. I can't sleep

Okay the eye vein color thing was a short moment of dumbassery that took like 5 minutes of thinking to figure out. I've revised my headcanons to suit it but now I'm grinding my teeth trying to figure out how open vs closed circulatory systems work precisely and if open ones are A. Even possible for a species as big as trolls and B. Able to exist alongside the "veins" in their eyes if I stretch and say that they carry pigment instead of blood.
I'm probably just gonna have to suck it up and say they're closed, which sucks for no reason other than that I really liked the idea of open ones. I guess it'd probably make more sense for sea dwellers anyway.
