Art by @TrashCorgi
EDIT: I feel like this is a bit out of date for a pinned intro post, but I cba to write a new one for now.
I was torn between making a "hello" post or just posting art, but then I realised the art is already waving hello. So I guess this is both?
This is my (de facto main) fursona Echo (it/its). It's normally a fae spirit inhabitting a plush toy bat — I call it a poppet. Poppet's a cool word that can mean puppet, small doll, or a non-appropriative analogue to a voodoo doll. Here though it's a mimikyu dressed up as its normal self.
I had a tumblr account, but I never posted to it, so this is kinda novel. Then again, I never posted to Twitter either. Despite being praised (and chastised) for concise writing (my English teacher once remarked she wanted to tell me what I'd missed when an essay came in far under the minimum word count, but there wasn't actually anything missing), the character limit there just killed me. Tags are pretty novel to me, but I think I've done a decent job on this.
I also gave alt text a go on that image, which was actually pretty hard? "My fursona you've probably never seen before in the shape of a pokémon" is actually really hard to convey in text.
So yeah, trying to come out of my shell a bit. Also kinda surprised at how appropriate this art is considering I recieved the comission before I even made this account.
