"5. How did you come up with your fursona's name?"

It's been "Pepijn" and I chose that just because I liked it. They don't have a surname, at least yet.

Since a bit ago (when I started realizing I was genderfluid) the name seems more ill-fitting and I tend to refer to them as "the bat" a bit more often, in part also because most people weren't using Pepijn in the first place.

"4. What inspired your fursona's design?"

The chevron shapes (pattern and nose) were meant to be the slits in organ pipes (the musical instruments, no body horror) but I later found out those are/tend to be rectangular. (see the attached image)

The ears and bits at the front are just take from various bats, as are the feet. I think the colours happened because I couldn't decide on a dark blue (cold colours taking my preference) or brown. Thus, the wing membranes are now blue. :3

"3. Why did you decide on your fursona's species?"

I adore bats. They are basically flying cute!

I should note that they're not based on a specific species of bat, but bats in general.

(I can do another right now, but waiting with the answers for a bit so as to not spam up the local timeline.)

"2. Is this your first fursona? (if not, what was?)"

Sort of? It was the first one I'd call a fursona and I can't remember any good predecessor. The closest I can thing of was when i was very little I invented a character that was just a talking guinea pig (my favourite animal before bats) and he had everything I thought was cool.

When I was 5 or 6, "cool" apparently meant old cars shooting streamers and misremembered Chain Chomps (smaller, and the chain was gradually got larger)

"1. Post some of your favourite art of your fursona."

I don't have all that much of it, but:

1: New commission by @nventous, very cute.
2: Rather personally important drawing I did in April. Features @lizardsquid.
3: Many sketches by @shagoli of which I'll give an honorable mention to the sitting derpy one on the right.
4: I had room to upload one more and blushy bats are always good. :D (also self-drawn)

Heck it, let's see how many I can answer at all. :P

I don't know why it was saved as a .png where I nicked it from, when the thing has clearly been ravaged by .jpg already.

(I'll transcribe the qeustions as I answer them, for those who can't read the image)

Oh right I was thinking about doing that fursona question thing. Should I?

Oh heck I thought of doing something but I can't remember...

@lizardsquid is wonderful and lovely and I love them. They're so kind and patient and affectionate, deserve much of the same. What a cutie, please give her hugs and love. As much as I give her love, I can't do it on my own. She's one of the joys in my life~

LaTeX: Hi you can typeset pretty much anything with me!

Me: Cool I would like a tilde like this~

LaTeX: Lol piss off.

Hello the bat is awake.

Good night everyone~

Please be affectionate to/with bat. :3
