[Start ID. A few uncolored sketches of a humanoid robot, with a head resembling an old tv and insect-like antennae, against a blank background. Their body is drawn in red, clothing in blue, and markings in green. They are more or less facing forward, though its upper body is twisted slightly to the side, so they’re looking somewhere above their raised arm. It features a number of markings, including icons for its favorite games, various hearts, and two across its chest that resemble stylized mastectomy scars. The robot is wearing a bandanna and a button-up shirt, but their body is visible underneath the lineart. End ID]

"the act of comparing autistic people to robots or depicting them as cold, emotionless, or subhuman is overused and problematic, robots/aliens shouldn't be the only characters we can relate to" and "ok but bots are cool and i wanna be one so bad" are two statements that can and should coexist

ok maybe I did clean it up a little

[Start ID. Two versions of a humanoid robot with a head resembling an old tv and insect-like antennae, standing on a peach-colored background. They are more or less facing forward, though its upper body is twisted slightly to the side, so they’re looking somewhere above their raised arm. The bot is painted pale green on its lower body and arms, while its head and chest are a dull red. It features a number of markings, including icons for its favorite games, various hearts, and two across its chest that resemble stylized mastectomy scars. Both versions of the robot are the same, though one is wearing a red bandanna and a blue button-up shirt with fronds and flowers. End ID]

your ocs should be friends with mine btw. my ocs told me they want to be friends with yours. theyre too shy to ask so i have to tell you. my ocs are asking your ocs to be friends with them

Would there be cyborgs in the robot world though 🥺

there sure would be!! Not that I technically have any cyborg characters (yet), but they are fairly widespread! (They typically have human brains and so are classified as human, though they get to shop at the same hardware/limb places as bots do :])

OH HEY trick or treat!!! took a second to doodle a p3ri but this looks very fun so i gotta join in :]

treat for you my friend! :3 izzy loves the outfit ^__^

Trick or treat, Peri! [I am dressed my normal sona, just with a fake moustache taped on]

* You got: The ghost of the butterscotch-cinnamon pie we baked that one time! Enjoy :]

TRICK OR TREAT! : D

I think apple cobbler and cider provide an equivalent to your pie and Generic Beverage, M&Ms being an obvious twin–we've also got the originals in the back if peanuts aren't your favorite! :]

TRAGIC! robot character i like so so much is really hard to draw

I play the body electric.

Several years ago, I first ran into @peridots-pixiwolf on tumblr, back when Hollow Knight had all but consumed my life.

Last year, despite the fact we don't really talk much, Peri remembered and made me a sweet gift art to commemorate the event.

I may be an eldritch horror, but my heart's as hard as applesauce- happy pal-iversary, friend. I hope it keeps up a while longer!
