hi y’all i just wanted to put you onto this fundraiser for the buffalo nations grasslands alliance. they’re trying to recoup some of the funds for black-footed ferret conservation on tribal grounds that the trump/musk administration has frozen, which is impacting not only the conservation efforts themselves but the livelihoods of the people working on them. the frozen grant is 1.1 million but this fundraiser has a goal of 50,000.
the fundraiser has 24 days left and has only reached 2% of its goal with 11 donations. black-footed ferrets are an endangered lazarus taxon that was thought to be extinct from 1979-1981 before being rediscovered by accident. they’re a miracle of conservation and it would be horrible to lose them for good, not to mention (again) the impact of people working with these animals losing their jobs which is outlined in the fundraiser link. indigenous-led conservation efforts are extremely important for a wide variety of reasons and as someone in the zoology area i feel obligated to share this fundraiser to contribute to those efforts.
i know that things are hard right now and there’s a lot of people and organizations all across the world that need help, so don’t feel pressured BUT if you have extra money and you can contribute to this fundraiser or share it with people who can that would be great.
super cute black-footed ferrets ^

Aaaand now we got the third oldest roy!
Alright so you noticed he's always wearing sun glasses and you thought he wore them to look cool well yes but also no because the original reason is actually because he has an eye condition called photophobia (basically his eyes are over sensitive to any type of light) but other than that he doesn't have much going on he's got a cool bandana and headphones he makes a lot of music and he's also kind of mean which is how he earned the nickname bully koopa his siblings still call him that sometimes he's really strong compared to his siblings and his favorite color is purple.
Sexuality: gay
Age: around 16
Drink: he likes himself a cold Dr pepper
Music: saltwater sky by: nafets

Oh... My... STARS!!! I fucking love this.
Also yes, he does find your spewart to be rather obnoxious.
Spewart! the main man himself (don't tell Topper I said that). You guys already know what my Spewart looks like, so there is no reason for me to hide him here. Like the others, Spewart is pretty stoked to meet everyone!

...and the newcomer (called "Stewart" in my au)!
I was trying to limit the "broodal amount" per artist to 2 so I can try drawing more styles, but I might end up drawing 3 of the same person's broodals (I'm having a hard time finding a lot of people for this haha 😅)
Anyway, Rango is the last one I need to do, and after that, I'll reveal my hidden broodals!

Who would be the biggest weeb/anime freak out of your characters?
Uhhhh... ... I don't really think anybody would be an "anime freak" per say, but some of them watch anime occasionally, like these 2.

Next is Harriet! The second eldest out of the broodals.
Harriet is probably the best in combat out of all the broodals, she has good reflexes, she's great at aiming, and shes fast af, although she has a lot of energy, she probably sleeps less than 6 hours every night so.... Idk but she definitely isn't a morning person, and drinks like 9 cups of coffee each morning, but anyways! She spends most of her time either training, or just generally fucking around, she's also the best cook, and has an extremely good attention span, not very neat though, and has a hoard of random shit under her bed, also she's dyslexic, and used to steal random shit from everywhere for no reason..... Still kinda does- BUT anyways! She also happens to be the best at comforting people, and has been really into pirate movies since she was a kid, has dressed as a pirate every Halloween since she was 6, and is extremely claustrophobic....yeah that's all I could think of-
