Chirp! Bark! Hey!

Funny plural system made of a murder chicken, a murder dog, and just some guy talk about their life.

The Host!

Prehistoric Chicken

Heya! I'm Max (he/they), local host of these other bastards! I'm a Velociraptor therian, with thoughts about my species that'll certainly be scientifically inaccurate as paleontologists make ever cooler discoveries about dinosaurs, but hey, I love progress!

I identify as both human and animal, and on the human side I'm a queer, neurodivergent Asian American. I awakened as a raptor sometime in 2018, the actual date is lost to time, and it took a lot of questioning my experiences and bouncing around with different labels - at one point I was questioning an actual chicken, and what stopped me was the long tail and the hand claws.

The system stuff started August 16, 2022, when they walked in, were great fun but messed with my brain RAM, walked out again, and then kept doing that sorta thing. Minus the memory issues, that seems to be something I got a hang of pretty quick. It's interesting, and something I wanna write about eventually!

In things that aren't related to alterhumanity, I like creative writing and drawing, literary/character analysis, and learning about the human body! (Biology is cool, y'all!)

The Headmates!

Murder Robot ft. Dog Software

I'm Jude (they/them), local dog, former murderbot! I'm an OC fictive from a heavily canon-divergent version of Detroit: Become Human called Detroit, Machina, where the RK line are deviant hunters, the deviant hunting is company-sanctioned murder, and I'm one of those new deviant hunters, sent out with a knife and a handler and the promise that failure means you're unworthy of the love of everything you hold dear. So I have a knife, and trauma, I guess, which I'm going to talk about actually because it's really bad to keep it all pent up and I wanna do something about it.

On a less fucked up note, I'm a dog for narrative/symbolic sorta reasons, some black pointy-eared mutt, and my gender is nonbinary and basically mutt, in the sense that I'm doing what works for me and it's really not matching a pedigree. I'm also bisexual and I have BPD, which I'm gonna talk about because it affects a stupid amount of everything. I'm doing my best out here and it's mostly working, I think.

Things I like include (but aren't limited to): walks, dissection, the cutting board part of cooking, weighted blankets, chew toys, writing, kink and sex, and being annoying (affectionate)


Just Some Guy

Hey, I'm Gavin (he/him), and I'm the only completely human guy here, so you get to hear about my unique Everyman experiences! I'm also a fictive, dropped in from the same universe as Jude - which means yes, my full name is Gavin Zachary Reed, no, I'm not that asshole from the video game I've never played. I'll probably spend time here talking about my life and feelings and all that jazz, because I've been to therapy before and my therapist told me journaling is fantastic, and unfortunately she's right.

If we're disclosing identity labels, I'm a transsexual gay fag and a stone top. I'm neurodivergent in ways that make me funny and slightly worse than normal. I'm mixed race, don't ask me the details because fuck if I know, and I have an older brother who's sometimes great and sometimes really annoys me. His name's Elijah, you may or may not have heard of him - I'll talk about him sometime, probably.

Some things I like include indie rock music, Hozier, TTRPG streams, The Magnus Archives, and Disco Elysium. Probably gonna update as time goes on, I need more interests.

Jude's my partner - sometimes I'll call them my boyfriend or vice versa - and they're adorable. Fucking murderbot wants cuddles while I'm writing my intro. (Love ya. 💚)

Last and most importantly, I have three cats. Their names are Jack, Lucy, and Buttercup. Sometimes they're called Jackass, Lucifer, and Buttercup. (Buttercup, for one, has never done anything wrong in his dumb little life.) I'd pay cat tax and show them to y'all, but they aren't corporeal in this world, so you're just gonna have to trust me when I say they're adorable menaces to society and I could not be prouder.

The Guests!

Elijah

Gavin's older brother, retired creator of androids and former CEO of Cyberlife. You might look at that and think he's an asshole. Well, no, he's genuinely a really nice person, he just visits sometimes to annoy Gavin. He has a ton of houseplants (a good many rescued from Gavin's housecats, nowadays) and lives with his queerplatonic partner, Chloe, somewhere out of Detroit.


Connor

Jude's twin brother. Mostly visiting to annoy Gavin, and sometimes Jude as well. He doesn't technically own a dog, but his old middle-aged roommate/friend does, and they live together, so Sumo is also his dog now. Co-parenting.


Tina

One of Gavin's best friends, mostly visiting to annoy Gavin. (You see a theme here?) She has a pet ball python, named Anime because "she has the biggest shiny puppy anime eyes, it only made sense."


Travis

Jude's older brother. They told him about the whole system thing of someone talking to them in private thoughts and now he's vetting me to see if I'm anything like their former handler. I like to think I'm not, but it's good of him to be cautious. He does not like me yet and does not want any more information shared about him at this time.
