Animals I resemble
12 years ago
Wanted to write this down somewhere before sleep. I have no plans to cobble together a fursona, but I do have certain traits of various animals.
I've compared myself to a penguin for years. Awkward little bird outside of his element, gives you a pebble if he likes you (in my case, does favors), which seems small from the outside, but can mean the world between myself and the other person.
Cat. Because I act like a fuggin' cat. Often aloof, affectionate on my own terms, and while friendly like a Tom, not particularly social.
Cheetah, because I tame easily, rely a lot on my brother, and am comfortable within a small core group (if none of this makes sense, do us a favor and wiki it). When I say I tame easily, it doesn't take much for me to get used to a person or place, all things considered, and I get along with nearly anyone.
I'm also a bit of a momma bear, because I defend those who I come to call friends ferociously. I take care of people.
Porcupine. I've only started saying this recently, but basically I don't fear much because I don't have much to fear. I've had pretty much everything you can think of slung at me since childhood, so short of a few extremes there's not much you can do to me anymore. I have a weapon in every situation, which keeps me safe, but also means I'm not used to not using them. It's something that often keeps people at arms' length or drives them away.
Newest one is a gorilla, by which I mean while I'm normally gentle, once you do manage to piss me off, you're going to regret it.
There's probably not going to be a series of characters to come out of this. I'm DEFINITELY not going to try to jumble them into one unholy abomination. The last thing the fandom needs is a Pencatahbearillapine. Like seriously, I doubt any artist I know of would even attempt to figure those semantics out, and some of them already do hybrids. Also, I generally just dislike hybrids. They made me create a special area in my folder system and even that has an "Other" subfolder. Love some of the designs, hate the messing with my taxonomic classification setup. YES I AM ANAL!
