hello again!
so, as i've said to some of you before (and apologized to several of you for my behavior because of), i've some very difficult obstacles since moving out on my own. a lack of money means lack of important things like hygiene products and food and probably more importantly, VERY soon, i will no longer be able to afford my medication! i wish i was a robot so i wouldn't need all these things but sadly i'm not. uvu;;

a helping hand would be most appreciated under these circumstances, whether it's a simple signal boost, or anything! to try and help take some of the edge off, i plan to begin pushing out more batches, and i'm taking commissions (commission sheet will be made and submitted later today)!

thank you all very much for all the support you've given me so far, it's been extremely helpful!

more info on my Blooms species can be found here: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/16513755/ (ref sheet subject to change later today due to this one being the very first one i made and it's missing quite a bit of new information)

things i have updated on my Blooms: they have fur! soft fur, silky fur, fluffy fur, you name it! the fur is typically short and covers their entire bodies, but can be grown out in tufts in some places (everywhere actually). i've changed their legs, they resemble a fawn's or deer's legs now, they're more apparent when standing. you cannot determine a Bloom's sex by looking at them as their sexual organs are internal.

Blooms are avid collectors! remember that silly old mood ring you lost while you were playing outside like 5 million years ago?? they found it. yep, they found that AND those dumb earrings you lost the backs to like 5000000 times, that one bracelet that was way too big for your wrist and yet you wore it outside anyway, that ribbon that fell out of your hair, like, forever ago...you've got to be more careful with your things.

PERSONALITIES
1. timid lilac: scared of bugs. very shy, the easiest to make cry among the social bunch. they are very over-dramatic about receiving kindness from others while very "underwhelmed" it seems when receiving rudeness. they all are very protective of them.

2. sunflowa: the loud-mouth, so to speak, of the group. they're stubborn and think that they're always right, even when they're very, very wrong. they're cowardly but won't show it on the outside just to save face, and they're very easy to get embarrassed.

3. playful palm: deemed the "lovable idiot". they're very clumsy and embarrassing but they're so kind and optimistic you can't help but want to coddle them forever. they're the youngest of the bunch and they are the most rare due to the fact that they seem to have no flowers (yet) but the most leaves.

4. tropical beauty: the logical thinker. most likely to say "what? what would you do that!?" like 100x a day. scream it to the clouds! they're nurturing and overprotective. they're knick-knacks are two mismatched earrings both found separately at different times.

5. dainty dandelion: the second calmest (behind lilac) at first, but prone to dramatic freak-outs when their "petals" are blown off. which happens a lot. high winds? they're screwed. they get blown on? bye-bye white fluffy things! of course they grown back within a matter of a few hours but it's traumatic every time. picture this: a serene view of a grassy field, the sun is up, the clouds are fluffy, they are sitting among the earth in peace. a large wind swoops by. they're screaming and flailing. where did the tranquility go?

6. retinal assault: voted most likely to have "WHOA! SO COOL!" engraved on their headstone. they're a serial garbage collector. bottle caps, broken chains and broken jewelry, you name it, it's in thier nest. they think everything is cool. seriously. everything is cool. they're loud as all hell and very bubbly.

7. cactus flower: nice as hell. seriously. if they could give you their heart they would. they're optimistic, spontaneous, kind of loud when excited, and are always smiling, always. the only draw-back about this amazing bloom is that their body is completely covered by cactus quills. why does that suck? because they love to hug. and you can't help but want to hug them back.

8. hidden gem: intelligence in this bloom is high. they're kind of picky when it comes to the things they collect, but they accept gifts from other blooms (no matter how terrible. i'm looking at you #6.) they have a fear of bugs but keeps it well under wraps as they are obviously surrounded by them in their habitat. an accident with a bird damaged this bloom's right ear, so they're very dependent on sight and sensation. they're very nice and love finding lost jewelry. they wear a silk handkerchief they found in a picnic area sometime ago around their head.

9. prickly rosebud: has to be better than everyone, at everything. tricky, mischievous, and kind of a bully. they were the first to recognize that trash (i.e. napkins, gloves, etc) could be makeshift as clothing. they were the first to introduce this to other blooms, although it never really caught on. they are the self proclaimed "fashionista" of the bunch and keep their nest adorned with glittery pretty shiny things. when they're "outfits" (old napkins) are torn or destroyed, they have a freak out, they're embarrassed when "naked". they're wearing the latest spring trend: a napkin with a rubber-band belt around the waist. festive.

10. custom: any design you want!

all of these guys are at a set price of $10USD. the custom is $15USD. after purchasing them you can change their personality, determine their sex, alter their palette and markings, but you cannot sell them for more than you bought them (unless you are offering more artwork).

REMEMBER: these blooms are all within the same "tribe". they know each other, and have reacted with each other!
