Happy 18 Years Of Supernatural

happy 18 years of supernatural

i said it was my favorite piece of media that i’ve hyperfixated on since the tender age of 12 and have not let go of since. i didnt say it was a Good piece of media

I'm gonna be honest, I don't know what's going on here. My little sister suggested it. So I drew it.

In order to justify this lil' dude's addition to my Fablehaven Beastiary, I'm going with a mildly crazy hedgewitch named Aisteach a couple hundred years ago. She was trying to learn transmutation, wasn't particularly good at it, but realised she loved her weird creations and made a bunch.

So. Many.

These half/half hybrids are all considered the same species, Aistechi (single Aistechus)- named in her honour.

Due to a weird twist of magic, even though they have no special properties or abilities themselves, if they breed with any of the components of their crosses (in this case, a squirrel or an octopus), all their offspring will ALSO be Aistechi of the same kind.

A couple got out near the beginning of the debacle, and... well...

They're generally considered either highly invasive and irritating pests or cool pets in reserves, depending on which form of Aistechi they have and how easily they can breed with the native wildlife in the area.

Reserves have a difficult time trying to contain them, stop them breeding wildly, while also fending off poachers, due to the pet market for some of the cuter forms among the rich and elite. Most preserves just try to avoid having any at all.

Fablehaven has exactly 0, because possessing this species is rather counter-productive if they're going for secrecy. Though Seth may smuggle one back from a knight's mission from a preserve madly trying to rehome the children of a grey wolf x sandpiper (who found another sandpiper- don't ask me how that worked) and name him Zip sometime in the future. Nobody can persuade Seth to give Zip up, and they go flying occasionally.

Seth has to get written permissions and several licences just to keep Zip, let alone bring him along on adventures. The less said about getting permission for Zip to go to other preserves with Seth, the better. Most have the instinctive reaction of looking at Zip, pointing, and screaming. Which is wildly hilarious, as he's adorable.

Just realized that the reason I love making friends on tumblr is because it’s exactly how you make friends on the playground as a six year old. No, I don’t know their name but they love mermaids too and built this awesome sand castle. No, I don’t know their age but their imaginary cheetah is friends with mine. You like this show? You like this character?? You can sing the theme song really loud??? Here is a flower crown. Here is a juice box. You can share my time and I might never see you again but part of you stays in my soul forever. In my mind we’re still on the swing set and the sky is blue and nothing will ever be wrong again.
