I NEVER SHARE MY SPECIES IN ORDER GOMEN LAKSFAJSALFJSAL

I doodled these at work today, cause SilentR reminded me how I have NO tiny characters, and it also reminded me that I wanted to make a tiny species, which would give me more chance to finally make some tiny characters for myself. lol
The closest I have are my Mahru and Limies, but they're still usually atleast 3ft, SO NOT TINY ENOUGH
This is also one of my few species with sexual dimorphism, Mahru and Archiya being the only others. These two always come in pairs btw, they can't function without eachother! Even though they're separate species, these two are technically twins~!

Muffura
* They feed off of the "tears that constantly flow from their destined Crybie, not only for nourishment, but also for mental stability, these critters are usually atleast a lil chubby because of this, because they ingest a lot of it.
* Their ears look like fluffy winter ear muffs, and their horns that curve over their ears and hold them down only encourage this similarity.
* Their tails are basicallt a long fluffy flap of skin, used and looks exactly like a blanket, and very warm, though the males have thicker poofier version like a comforter, they use them to snuggle their Crybie at sleep time, and to comfort them when they're upset aswell.
* Their mental stability makes their relationship symbiotic, because it means they can help keep their Crybie from losing control and dying.
* If a Muff loses their Crybie, they will often serenade a new one they feel a nature pull for, either stealing from their own kind or finding a lone Crybie.
* If they are without a special Crybie for too long, they will start to lose their sanity, go rabid, and eventually die.

CryBaebies
* These lil cuties don't seem to need much aside from love and care to survive, though they are incredibly mentally and emotionally unstable because of it.
* They are constantly secreting an irresistible candy-like goo from their eyes, which flows twice as heavily when they're upset. They as insecure about this trait as a young girl with her nearly brand new periods, and are often even brought to paranoia by their "tears" aswell, because many hunt them for this addictive goo.
* These poor babes rely on their destined Muff to help steer their emotions and thoughts in the right direction, and keep them from focusing on their candy tears.
* They have beautiful silken tails and the softest imaginable ears they are hunted for aswell, females always have their tails curled as if they were in a bun, with tiny folded heart-shaped ears, and males have longer tails drooped loosely, with much larger folded heart-shaped ears. Because of this, the males have evolved large claws, because they are hunted more since they have more ear and tail to take.
* Without their own Muff to care for them, not only do they fall into a huge bout of despair, but their "eye candy" collects too much, and only gets smeared all over themselves when they try to wipe it away, so they become rather susceptible to illness attracting all kinds of dirt to themselves. Even so, most usually die of a broken heart before they can be taken out by a big illness, because their depression can literally kill them.

* Both species usually run from 1ft to 2.5ft tall, weighing between 10lbs to 25lbs, though the Muffuras usually weight more, and the males of both species are generally noticeably smaller than the females.
