02 - The Shape-shifters feelings on Hatchlings

So obviously this blog is about sharing my experiences as an alter-human Dragon, in hopes to help other creatures feel seen in some ways, as well as getting how my life is going basically out there, so another topic I wanted to touch upon is that on my feelings towards young dragons/Hatchlings. So, while I’m not sure what may come to mind when I speak of small dragons/hatchling and how I treat and tend to them and such, I just want to say this is very much a gender-neutral thing for creatures, so it doesn’t have to have more of a “feminine” nature to be valid.

This also may not just apply to me as a dragon, so just know that if your instinct kick in in these ways your totally valid and understood, but let us move on.

So for as long as I can remember I’ve been drawn to small creatures, and stuffed animals and such. This manner and feeling has changed around a bit over the years but that fact always stayed the same, creatures that were smaller and frailer than me, even if they were “just stuffed animals”, I wanted to protect and care for them.

Today what this means to me, is when I find a small dragon, I have this deeper instinct to take care of it, even if this requires me to spend probably too much money, but I feel as though this small hatchling needs the warmth, love, and protection, so I’ve noticed it to be a very parental instinct, seemingly one I’ve had this whole human life so it’s likely just carried over.

This blog still has no proper structure, but I feel as though that’s fine since we’re all perfectly imperfect, it’s fine for things not to be a high level of perfection.

So these parental instinct take multiple forms, and I’m sure they also vary from species, but for me these instincts come in the forms of collecting feathers, rocks, and pebbles and keeping them in a chest, similar to a warm little nest for a small one who may need it, but also in the form of finding these small dragons, wherever they may be, and taking them from whatever not so good situation they may be in, like a cold and lonely store, or yard sales and such, and bringing them under my wing and providing care and protection for as long as they need it.

To summarize: These feelings are totally valid and normal, your a creature, and you’ve got instincts that may kick in at times, so never think your any less valid on any level, I see you and I feel these instincts just as well.

01 - The Shape-shifters Identity

So to start off the blog officially, I wanted the first of the posts to do a bit of educating on the shape-shifting part of my identity.

So, while it may be a bit easy to play off the shape-shifting aspects of my identity, I feel as though I can’t stress enough that it may not be what first comes to mind.

So first - what do shape-shifts mean for me?

Okay so, if you’ve heard of the term cameo-shift- great! But if not, essentially when it entails is that you’re experiencing shifts that don’t necessarily align with your actual species. So in my case for example, I’m a dragon, but an aspect of being a shape-shifter, at least in my case, is that I’ve gotten used to various cameo shifts, but they’re not exactly at random, nor are they of my choosing. 

What does this mean?

My shifts usually seem to correlate to the times of year, as well as my emotions at times. So, given that the current season as of 2023/28/02 is late winter, coming around to spring, I’ve been experiencing more frequent canine-shifts, and this isn’t the first time this has happened in correlation to the season as well, so I’ve become accustomed that this happens around this time of year. But it’s important to note that these aren’t things I choose, and it can actually weight quite heavily on me mentally, because at times it does make me feel as though if I talk about it, I’ll seem less valid as a creature despite being unable to control it.

So what to take away from this?

As a shape-shifting creature, I experience shifts a bit differently at times, but this doesn’t make me any less valid as a creature, and for any shape-shifting creatures who may come across this, I want you to know that you are every bit as valid as the rest of the creatures, and you deserve to love yourself.

Note to readers: As my first blog, it’s not designed to be perfect, but instead designed to be informative for those who wish to be educated on what I have to educate on.

A little Introduction

Hello to all, I want all here to know me as Desmodus, but Just Desmo is fine too if that’s easier for you. 

Physically I am 19 years of age, and I am a Shape-shifting Dragon.

I am a non-binary creature who resides in the United States, although I feel as though I’d far rather reside elsewhere.

I am an alterhuman creature, and if your not familiar with alterhumanity I would really appreciate it if you’d take a bit of time to properly educate yourself, as that makes things easier on us all <3 

So anyways, I made this Tumblr to better educate all creatures on me, and how I may experience things and see the world overall, as I feel that’s important.

In my free time I enjoy art, photography, collecting various things, spending time with the creatures I hold dear, and being in nature. I also partake in things like Video games, nostalgic shows and movies, and more I’m sure.

Athough I want to save the specific subject as it’s own post, I do want anyone who may be reading this to know; when I say I’m a shape-shifting creature I do not, in any way, mean I feel as though I can physically shift, nor am I meaning I can shift at will in any way, I just felt this was important to note.
