I Wonder What I Should Name Him - Tumblr Posts

Welcome to throwback Monday where I pull out stuff from my art folder that I never posted. This is from two years ago actually. Anyways! Lore under the cut.

The character on the right is Palen, a fan character @enjoliquej made for JI years ago that sometimes I think about and make up little things for. He's a Plant Buddy and if I recall, the lore was his parents got kidnapped by the Shadow Buddys when he was young. So I thought, what if he had an older brother to cheer him up? That's the guy on the left. I don't know what his name is. But anyways, Plant Buddys usually have little flower antennae, but Palen and his older brother both have really long flower antennae that tend to get tangled. I'm thinking this is equivalent to freckles for them. Just kinda a fun messy thing that can happen. Or I guess curly hair would be a closer analogy? I think it's very rare, so maybe it's more like having red hair or a rare eye color? Harmless, but just a little character quirk. :) Plant Buddys also tend to have six vines on their back. Palen's thing is his always cocoons himself in them, probably a self-soothing thing. I guess it means you can hardly tell what's going on with him though because he's just a cocoon. XD
