Do you think ancients have nerves in their anemone hair? And if they wanted to cut it to a shorter length would they need to numb it first?

stars and heavens above you've no idea how much i had been mullin this shit over, fuckin.... cuz like Technically that hair is what a proper (our real life) sea anemones are. that's literally just it, the rest of the body is some weird ass evolution stunt circus that i've given up on tryin to explain to myself an hour into initial designing process. so by That logic they REALLY probably shouldn't be cutting it

but we don't have the evolution stunt circus rest of the body for nothin n they already do worrying body modifications so feckin hell might as well, right?

you can notice with Sparrows that she never really cuts it and it grows rather slowly

(and also i am shit at watching out for the hair length most of the time)

so "haircuts" would be probably pretty rare and usually done by the wealthy or smth

but Also when i drew Wind as an Ancient

my thought process was that the "hair" can be either pulled out completely (probably for those religious purposes again) or fall out naturally despite being a much more solid part of the Ancients than our own hair. es probably Some kind of medical condition

#Spot says stuff #rw #the hair shit has been agonizing me for So long. from like. the Form that it takes (i often find myself thinkin of hair texture of- #-black folks even though regionally the ancients are inspired by a different race) to tryin to make it special in like different hair- #-stylization and and possibly Texture. euros as ancient hair bullshit is the most agonizing Fucking thing ive ever done n Right Now i have- #-a question for that design n my ass decided to go big boy on it so i have to draw those STUPID curls in a SERIOUS manner its KILLIN ME #yall dont see it but im fucking squaring up with some parts of the design philosophies every goddamn day.
