Hermits Lineup Pt. 1!

happy halloween! :)

For all of those asking how the hermits view and understand deviancy, hopefully this clears it up: they don’t.

Doc, the first to “deviate,” is the one to coin the term— Doc’s model was built specifically to create out-of-the-box solutions to questions and problems, so it doesn’t take long for him to evaluate his own programming and realize android technology is capable of surpassing their written directives entirely. He brings his findings to Xisuma, thinking he may be able to offer an android’s perspective to a feature X built into their systems, to find out that X actually had no idea that his creations were capable of this at all :-)

So, uh. Based on what we know thus far: Ren clearly has no qualms with deviancy, not understanding a lick about all of this android nonsense, X is fascinated by/ecstatic over the discovery, and bdubs thinks this newfound sentience (despite not knowing anything about it) means the androids are going to rule the world (or something). so…. if that gives you any indication of how things are going, yeah DGBJDFGHK

Regarding Doc’s design, I actually had a design for him when I first started doodling stuff for the au, but this is his redesign! I figured his initial/base model would be more humanoid, and he likely experiments with his appearance later on after deviating!

So! Since Techno’s origin is a rabbit, I thought I’d give y’all some bunny facts because I’ve worked with many different types and have been trained in grooming and care for them!

To get the most annoying one out of the way first…

RABBITS SHOULD NOT EAT FULL CARROTS. This is a common misconception, and I do not know how it got started, but carrots (especially large amounts) are Not Good For Rabbits! It’s like giving a toddler 10 king sized candy bars! It will make them hyper and more feral! There is So Much Sugar!

Now onto the less egregious ones:

1. As a wild rabbit hybrid, he would not have lop ears! If you are drawing him as a domesticated lop, that’s fine. And if you’re drawing lop!techno, his ears would fall straight down. Full bred lops (every variety, from French to Holland) ears are born standing straight up, and around 2-4 weeks flop completely, a processing that is known as Lopping. Some little babies will have Airplane Ears, but fully grown lops have large ears that go straight down and rarely lift up.

2. If you are drawing wild rabbit!techno, keep in mind what climate he is from!!! Wild rabbit’s ear sizes tend to be large, but are not comparable to the body, rather to the climate in which they/the species they are have evolved to live in. The hotter an environment, the bigger the ears! Speaking of, a rabbit’s ears are their main receptacle of heat, which is why they are so veiny and large- they siphon out the heat their furry body cannot handle.

3. If you are wanting to write/draw origins fluff with Techno, here’s a few quick tips! Rabbit’s favorite petting spot is the head, grooming is both an act of affection and dominance (the one grooming is typically more dominant), and the most love you can show a rabbit of any kind is by petting and kissing their ears, because that is the only spot most cannot groom themselves (lops being an exception), so other rabbits have to do it for them. It’s a tedious task for a rabbit, so going out of your way to pet and groom their ears is a very strong act of love. Also, swiping a rabbit across the nose is an easy way to get them to knock off whatever they are doing!

4. Hares! Are! Not! Rabbits! They are lagomorphs, yes, but they are not rabbits! Similarly, jackrabbits are hares! The main difference is that hares are bigger and bonier, with larger hind feet, larger ears, and denser fur. Their torsos are longer, and they are the most equipped of the lagomorph family to handle extreme heat.

5. Bunny noses aren’t like dog or cat noses! They are very sensitive, but also keep twitching at almost all times. Rabbits can sleep with their eyes open, and one of the only ways you can tell if they are truly asleep is by seeing whether or not their nose is still twitching

6. Rabbits cannot swim! 1 of the 30-some variations of cottontail rabbits can swim, but no other breed can. It weighs down their fur, which has 3 layers and really really doesn’t dry without assistance, and leaves them extremely prone to temperature changes, which can be instantly lethal.

7. Binkies! Binkies are when an extremely content and happy rabbit jumps up into the air, spins around mid air, and flips back down. It’s one of the cutest things a rabbit does, and it means they are happy and loved and feel safe with you. Look up videos of this, trust me, it’s fucking adorable.

8. Flopping! Similarly to binkies, when a bunny flops onto their side, it means they are very content and happy and comfortable. It looks like they’re dead at first, but I swear they aren’t.

9. They chew on anything and everything, though I’m sure this one was known already. I will attach a picture below of my rabbit’s absolute madness when I left him alone for half a second.

10 (and finally, unless I think of something else to add later). Rabbits have absolutely terrible eyesight and depth perception! They cannot tell if something close to them or far from them! This results in a severe lack of spatial awareness that results in a lot of knocked over items. It also means sometimes they jump into things instead of onto things.

And I hope this covers things! Below I will, in fact, attach pictures of my baby (and some others I’ve worked closely with) for comparison!

thanks @im-literally-just-sitting-here for the idea

don’t be fooled by the sweet smile and cute demeanor, she can and WILL kick ur ass
