not a question but hi tegon!!!
(I'll try and think up and actual question later I swerar)

Hehe, hello there! Take your time thinking of something to ask, I'll be here all.....well, for a long time!

Tegon, what does it feel like when you actually know that a micro, a size of a rice is actually on your body? Plus, you a fan of them being on your sexy ass~?

Well, if I KNOW that, then I have to give them a show. Stretching exercises in the nude, sun basking, that kind of thing. They're welcome to hang out wherever they'd like, but they might get slapped (or worse!) by a friend if they hang out on a cheek ;)

You think you may go back to writing stories? (Sorry if it's a touchy subject, I just loved your unaware stories so very much.)

Nothing touchy! Umm, I didn't really think I was going to write again until I got a wild hair and pumped out my most recent story over the space of about a week, so the motivation can still come up. I guess if I were it would have to start with writing bits and pieces here and there when they jump into my head. Maybe some sort of collaboration would be best to keep me on top of it. I'd like to explore something unique, unusual, or otherwise underserved in the community too.

I get a cold feeling from some people and I fear they don't think I'm a good person. Look, I've hung out with people I should have kept my distance from, I've silenced and ignored myself and have not been true to what I stand for, I've made poor decisions in my journey of developing a political and world view, I've been petty and needlessly nasty in arguments, I've lashed out to strangers in anger and in a feeling of powerlessness, and anyone who follows me on Twitter knows I've completely lost it a few times and hurt my friends before getting help. But please. I'm not a bad person. I am SORRY. This is not something I take lightly. Believe me, I have suffered the consequences, this shit eats at me *every day*, and I mean that, when I wake up or have nightmares about it. I brood on and ruminate about it all the time. I never had true friends until I had furries, and seeing a burned bridge here and there scares me and haunts me. I guess...no, I'm not okay, but I know I only have myself to blame. It's what makes me withdraw, pull back when I see people getting close. Maybe I am bad, deep down? Maybe they really will just be disappointed the closer they get to me? If I don't engage, at least I won't cause any more damage. Well....anyway, it was good to get this out there, thank you for your question.

may I ask, you have being overwelmed with chats (discord, telegram, etc) lately? xwx

Well, I wouldn't use the term "lately" over "all the time", heh! But, look, for all the shit I give Twitter, I love the time-shifted aspect of it, where I'm not obligated to respond to the message immediately and I can poke in and poke out at my leisure. Frankly - I don't know how people do it on Discord/Telegram! During the day I probably have about ten things I have to do at any given moment, and I have no idea how peeps can carry on a conversation more than a quick back-and-forth. I don't really like large group chats on Discord/Telegram, either, because I feel like my trollish/shitposty sense of humor is at least somewhat uncommon or unwelcome, and there's this kind of snowball-effect thing that happens where more often than not when I poke my head in, the topic of conversation turns to me instead of what was being discussed and it makes me feel uncomfortable. I'm never really unhappy to chat, but at the same time people need to realize they're going to send messages to me that take hours/days/weeks for me to respond, and it's not a conscious brush-off.

How's life been treating you recently?

Extremely well, actually. I'm really looking forward to all the autonomy I'm going to have in Boston. Exploring the city, rubbing shoulders with rockstar professors, going to art shows, expressing my queer side....the future is bright!

Hey that's awesome, dude. I'm so happy for you and it seems like your future is definitely bright! Hope you enjoy Boston and enjoying all that's going to come with this new experience.

Thank you! You're welcome to visit anytime, if you find yourself up that way.

Glad to hear it. :D

Appreciate ya! :3

I have no questions so I'll just wave XD *waves*

*waves back*

Hello there, Saw this just now. I just gave you a watch there a few days ago. Hope doing okay and being safe with everything there.

I think got few question if it's ok and not too late to do this, here goes.

Do you prefer your character Tegon muscular/buff or not?
What are Tegon's favorite things he does together when he hangs out with his friends? Your own OCs and other OCs.
What is Tegon's and/or your favorite interactions when someone interacts with Tegons feet? Like foot rubs or foot shots for example.

What video games are you currently playing?
What is the most tastiest food that you can remember eating? If you don't remember any, I'll just tell you here that what's your favorite foods you like to eat.
What's your favorite color or colors?

There's one more question, but I'll maybe ask next time whenever if you do this again since I maybe gave too much questions to ask. Sorry.

Hope you have a good rest of your day there.

Tegon's build is a really interesting subject I'd love to expand upon. It never has - and I don't think ever will - mirror my build IRL...which is more or less average and not very athletic (I'm a limp noodle, but trying to get better!). Tegon began as pretty damn buff. That worked better for the crushy/rampagey commissions I got early on, but less so as I got into exploring micro/gentle/etc. At one point pig updated my ref, but he still ended up thicker than I would've liked. Eventually we got down to the slim but athletic build you see in pics today. Personally, that's kind of how I want myself to be? But that being said I...honestly am a person who doesn't mind floating continuity for my characters. Might a buffer Tegon work better in some places, and I'll just go with that? Sure. You also have the limitations of artists and YCHs, where it might not be tactful to significantly change the build of a slot you won. There's also the whole separate consideration of my suit, which has to at least somewhat match how I am IRL. Fun fact - it wasn't actually supposed to be a muscle suit. Something got lost in translation and I ended up just embracing it instead of forcing a change to the design past the point where it would've been easy to fix.

For your second question, well, sometimes Tegon is "me" and sometimes not. I guess start by answering as me and say that the most fun things to do when hanging out with friends is exploring a new city (like at a con), trying new restaurants, doing fun stuff you wouldn't normally do (like go carts, which I did with my friends  ArgentVZ and  Vonadi a few weeks ago!). As a character, I'd say that Tegon likes to go out for drinks with Alix/Burke/etc., attend cultural events like plays, and squeeze in a bit of kinky sizeplay fun with casual buds. Tegon's very much open and willing to try new things with strangers, not shy in the slightest.

Hmm, what's my favorite interaction involving Tegon's feet? I guess the best way to answer this is how I would enjoy interacting with other people's. So Tegon would enjoy resting his toes on top of a tiny and squeezing. He also wouldn't mind playing footsie with a similarly-sized friend :P

Currently I'm playing through a series of Japanese horror games that I picked up for cheap from the Steam Summer Sale. They're by a place called....Chilla's Art? Apparently based on weird Japanese VHS-internet copypasta-folktales that I have a lot of fun playing. They're short, cheap, they don't necessarily rely on jumpscares, and they usually have this aspect of walking around a deserted neighborhood at night which is a setting I LOVE. I'd recommend starting with "The Convenience Store" if this sounds like it could interest you.

The tastiest food I can remember eating? Well, maybe I wouldn't say tastiest, but rather a meal that has really stuck with me. Argent and I took a trip into Canada a few years ago and we ate at a French-Canadian restaurant in Ottawa. They had this interesting take on a burger where it was flavored with a red wine and had the consistency of a pate on a baguette. Just....so good! And there was also this surreal aspect of the atmosphere because it was relatively empty, close to closing, and snowy/miserable outside. On the topic of beef I'm suddenly reminded of an amazing steak I had in Pittsburgh that featured a bourbon glaze. Whenever I see that kind of thing in a steakhouse I always spring for it, love the taste.

My favorite color has always been green. I even wrote a poem on it in third grade! Neon green, chartreuse, and mint green get bonus points.

I'd be happy to answer that last question you have if you'd like to ask it below.

Heh, my favorite color is green too. Though I starting to kinda like blue too, especially when blue and green are together. I don't know I'm not much of person who plays favorites all the time.

I was starting to forget which question that was gonna ask you next time, but its starting to come back to me there a bit, so hopefully this was the question I was going to ask you,

What cartoons that you watch that are your favorites from your whole life and what cartoon characters do you like and are you favs there?

I just thought up this question I got in my mind. Probably a very obvious question there but does Tegon mind being around with humans just as he's with his other pals or anything that are not human?



What is his tolerance level with them? And with a human like me if I asked or anything with something, would he probably interact with them with anything he likes doing like paws rubs or anything macro foot related etc but in a gentle SFW kind of manner?

Heh, I don't know, I just like these heartwarming human pairings and interactions with furry humanoid animals there, especially more if there bigger than the humans or something. Hope you don't mind this question or anything I say.

Thanks for answering my questions there. Heh, That's alot to answer from you there for your character and everything.
I'm not good at explaining things much and I'm not all that talkative like this, just want to get this out and explain something clearly as much as I can.

But hopefully you can understand what I'm asking there and stuff. So thanks again for the answers for my questions there.

Well, hey, Alix is blue, so it's not a bad choice either!

I think Invader Zim had a huge influence on my sense of humor and showed me how cartoons can be very dark, sardonic, and serve as social commentary. I'm also a huge Simpsons buff and watched it religiously when I was younger. I should probably mention a recent cartoon too, even if it's not a favorite per se. I've been watching Solar Opposites on Hulu and it's a lot of the fun of Rick and Morty without the pretension. Though I probably can't listen to "Die Young" without having a shit-eating grin on my face now.

Tegon loves aliens! Nuff said. I'm sure he'd be happy to oblige a human fan's requests, within reason.

Thank you for asking! It was a pleasure to answer.

What things do you wish there was more of in macro art/stories, and feel like there isn't enough of? Giant aliens? Virtual reality?

Also, I saw you mentioned potentially being open to collabs? I'm curious as to what you have in mind, since maybe I could get involved. If you want to of course, I don't want to rush you or anything (and goodness knows I struggle to finish stories!~).

Uhh, NSFW nano with giant women, I guess? I think it's safe to say giant women dominate the IRL scene, but in furry art the trend seems reversed. What else.....insect macros? There are some good chars on Twitter that have popped up recently. On the topic of giant aliens, I'm always hungry for more size-difference "first contact" scenarios. Like, oh, I remember that one tweet I read a while back from  futurewesty about a scouting party getting inhaled by the alien. Good stuff.

If I did a collab it would have to be with a close friend or someone who is willing to let this drag out over a long period of time. I don't want to be tied to any commitments, because I'm not only very busy but also have wild swings in my motivation.

I definitely agree that there's a lack of such giant female content out there. I agree that the trend is reversed in IRL however, and I've seen it in more human focused art content as well. Over on a more human art focused site, Eka's Portal, giant females are the definite norm.

Insect macros are a neat idea as well, because they're so different to your average macro. Same goes for aliens of course, that's definitely a field I'd like to see more of. No better way to make first contact than power suited paws covering entire cities~

Although this tweet you mentioned sounds interesting, you wouldn't happen to have it lying around would you? I understand if you don't though.

And I can definitely relate in having wild swings in motivations, and my writing projects can stretch out for over a year. I am open to a collab with you though, if you are ever interested.

Oops, it was swallowed, not inhaled. But I don’t think West would mind the twist! https://twitter.com/highflywestguy/.....476600832?s=21

Swallowed, inhaled, grand fleet, planet, the minor details can get changed around for some hotter scenarios~ Still quite the nice read though! But yeah, giant aliens is something we need more of for sure.
