also laughing because this delays the ineveitable "you look like that other guy" reaction

God it really does in the best way lmfao

Anyway uhh...I guess you could think in terms of changes you'd want?
Then again I made gon an octopus...

Mantis shrimp, clearly.

CLEARLY

um i guess i hadnt super decided on his changes

id say bug but bugs are gross and i sort of already did that

Laughs

Give his eyes weird filmy grates like a mantis shrimp.

Hmmm... Maybe...what kind of Art, or work you want him to do then. He'd only be able to openly use One Power, so theoretically, the animal should have natural abilities to compliment?

giraffe

the thing is sollux kind of sucks at stuff thats not computers or psionics

so the animal doesnt really effect either of those lmao...

ring tailed lemur

i was honestly like "snake" but then snake is sort of like. not good WHICH KIND OF MAKES ME WANT TO DO IT MORE BUT

i thought id see if i can think of something better

maybe something nocturnal?

i kind of like the giraffe suggestion

but its also ridiculous

Velvet worm?

that sounds bad

giraffes are great

im not going to even google it because i dont want to be terrified lmao...

you could give him another pair of horns after the fact

LMAO MORE HORNS

thats clearly what he needs

6 horns

just rng your changes, bullshit from there 8V

like take the list for the common ones he gets from joining, rng and then ??? profit

sounds GOOD TO ME

its definitely worth a shot

He's a legless lizard- the animals simply recognize this and treat him as Not Snake-

there an animal that stays by itself in the dark a lot and sometimes forgets to eat for long periods of time

....bear

a viable suggestion

S l o th...slow Loris...?? Double check me on Loris uh

what is a loris

slow Loris! They have big big eyes...look it up :0

tortoise

Somehow, my train of thought looked back at bear, went to skunk, and

S..skunk Sollux...

no

just nolol

Anyway loris are like...they're a primate but they have a Poisonous Bite, it's wild

i am seeing that the lick there one to cover them in poison

Yee

raccoons eat lots of trash

Extra Safety

Hedgehogs are also nocturnal..

i was just looking at that

so are armadillos

DILLOSOLLUX

I desperately want someone to be a pangolin

or like, an aardvark

though if you wanna do a snake but not a snake and also hides in dark places a lot, moray eels

Man it's hard for me not to just shout favs, yeah

Binturong is a fav but it's not at all a sollux animal so you're spared that one
but
platypus...pangolin...

okay i think i will go with armadillo

it feels weird to have him be an animal with a lot of fur since trolls are evolved from insects

thank you guys for all the suggestions it really helped

Laughs fair
oh, what kind of armadillo? There's a few, like...the giant one, the 'pink fairy'...

i think specifically the pichi but

there's a lot so i havent actually picked one for sure

I'm serious that last one Exists Lmao

i know. i saw it

looks terrible

Fair
and ? Pichi..?

arma dilla

if he's not gonna be a bee, he should be a bird

(the birds and the bees get it- /brick'd)

Ohhh!! That one!!
Cute...
