(Lmao, I just noticed the "share results" button, so let's do that again...)

This is a really cool tool! I was not expecting Patience but to be honest it fits pretty well 🩵

I didn't get any Easter eggs as far as I know, but I've seen others describe some...
Results of Jaden's Undertale-themed soul quize described in the post, showing Ivy's soul result as Patience. The soul is light blue. White text below reads, "Even in the chaos of life, I never let wrath guide my next step." Ivy's full spread includes Patience at 61%, purple Perseverance at 58%, yellow Justice at 57%, dark blue Integrity at 43%, green Kindness at 41%, red Determination at 38%, and orange Bravery at 31%.

Unfortunately for me, one of the best things I've ever written was not only a song lyric for a musical-style character theme, but also a spoiler for a minor aspect of Adventures in Fragmentation.

(I'm posting it anyway for funsies. Guess the context, I guess?)

#Furry #FurryWriter #Writing
The relevant lyric of the song mentioned in Ivy's post, with black text against a light teal background, reading: When a problem is found and run into the ground, our only thought's to snuff. Amid circles and squares, turns out nobody cares when a diamond pops out of the rough! The image was made using Ellipsus's snippet feature.

Pros of anthropomorphic bugs:
• Really fun to do limbs
• How does clothing work?
• Bugs

Cons:
• I just KNOW I have a zillion photos of this species, but somehow can't find any of them???

(Ctenucha virginica photo inset sourced from kevlynn at www.bugguide.net/node/view/12... because I am a dingus)
A comparison of a digital art drawing of Ivy's anthropomorphic moth character Eteek O'Cocoon, and a real-life photo of her species, the Virginia ctenucha moth, sourced from user kevlynn on BugGuide.net. Both the real moth and Eteek have an orange fluffy head, two horn-like projections above their probosces, a metallic blue body, and dark brown wings. Eteek is wearing a white shirt, dark green pants, and a striped green tie.

Dori is not even close to my favourite of the Feline Nine Syndicate (that title will always go to her older sister Tori). She is, however, the only one of the Nine I've drawn in a while, which makes my current set of icons for them very, very funny

#Furry #FurryArt (kinda) #FurryFandom
A screenshot of nine icons in a square grid. The only one that actually has a character in it is the centre right square, containing a digital art drawing of Ivy's anthropomorphic cat character Dori Mewoki. Dori is a pinkish-grey cat with light brown hair, a purple shirt, a purple bandana, and blue eyes. She is outstretching a hand in a peace sign. The square she occupies has a purple gradient. The other squares are blank except for a coloured gradient of red, blue, green and white, teal and blue, light purple, pink and tan, green, and orange and teal.

Needless to say, I forgor (💀) again.

Happy Make a Terrible Comic Day, everyone!

#MakeATerribleComicDay2026 #Furry #FurryArt #FurryArtist #FurryFandom
A four-panel comic, monochrome blue against a black background. It stars Ivy's anthropomorphic barred owl fursona. In the first panel, labelled "June 24, 2025" (exactly a year prior to the post date), Ivy is looking unamusedly at her phone, showing a mockup of Tumblr with two comics, one being the memetic Loss shape, and a highlighted tag visible. She says, "Aw man, I missed Make a Terrible Comic Day. I literally make comics too..." In the second panel, Ivy waves a wing dismissively, stating, "Eh, whatever. I'll remember next year. I'll just set a reminder so I have time to prepare." A closeup of her phone shows said reminder in the calendar app. A divider labelled "Now". In the third panel, Ivy is sleeping flat on her back in bed and snoring when her phone goes off beside her. In the fourth panel, Ivy looks shocked at the phone displaying that it is indeed Make a Terrible Comic Day, and she says, "Oh no."

*Casually reading Animal Diversity Web on Siberian flying squirrels, Linda's species.*

ADW: "Unlike some other species of flying squirrels, Pteromys volans do not have a membrane between their hind limbs and the base of their tail."

Me: Oh...

The ref sheet for Linda I literally JUST finished:
Screenshot of a digital art drawing of Ivy's anthropomorphic flying squirrel character Linda Sukaalii. She has greyish-brown fur, a green shirt and boots, and a brown vest, leggings, and tie. Very much unlike real Siberian flying squirrels, she has a patagium between her ankles.

Redoing these old comics is very fun for the technical side of things.

As usual, the original is here: www.tumblr.com/owlkalinity/...

#Comics #Furry #FurryArt #FurryArtist #FurryFandom
A comic featuring Ivy's anthropomorphic animal characters. The entire comic takes place in a blue room. The white space of the comic has a black to dark blue gradient. In the first panel, Allie Lisierte, an anthropomorphic gecko wearing a pink shirt, stands in the foreground. Sam Lagounov, an anthropomorphic arctic fox in green, and Win Filcrow, an anthropomorphic dog in red, approach from behind her. Sam reaches out a hand and shouts, "Allie!", and Allie responds "What?" In the second, Sam grabs Allie by the shoulders and asks, "You have three eyes?" Allie asks "Huh?" In the next two, Win pushes up his glasses with his eyes closed and says "My apologies, Dr. Lisierte. I believe Dr. Lagounov is referring to the 'parietal eye' present in some lizards." Allie smiles and waves her hand dismissively, saying "It's fine, haha! I do have one, so." Drossy Emgi, an anthropomorphic fruit fly in a purple shirt, approaches from Sam's right. Sam turns to Drossy and asks "Drossy, did you know about this?", to which Drossy signs "What?" Sam outstretches a a hand and says "Lizards have three eyes!" Drossy pauses for a moment and signs something ending in "three". In the last panel, Win interprets for what Drossy signed, saying "'Only three?'" Allie, annoyed, yells "Win!". Win responds "Dr. Emgi said it, not me!"

A screenshot of an unfinished digital art drawing, featuring Ivy's anthropomorphic fruit fly character Drossy. He is a light brown coloured fruit fly with one white and one red eye, wearing a purple shirt. He is making the British Sign Language sign for "What?". This is also indicated by purple text on the side of the image.

Shout out to my roomie's dad for giving me a bunch of motorcycle reference pictures so I could redo the BAM cover amazingly #Furry #FurryArt #FurryArtist
Two digital art drawings of the same subject, Ivy's anthropomorphic opossum character Wendy Delfidi sitting on a red motorcycle, extending one arm into the sun in the background against a blue sky. In the left version, from 2024, the view is from the back, the sun is smaller and the sky is clear, Wendy's ponytailed hair is visible out the back of her helmet, and the motorcycle looks more like a thickened bicycle. In the version on the right, the view is from the front, the sun is larger and the sky has faint clouds, Wendy's hair is not visible, and the motorcycle is much better shaped.

Redid an old comic of mine that I'll link from my Tumblr.

#Furry #FurryArt #SafeFurWork #FurryArtist

www.tumblr.com/owlkalinity/...
A comic featuring Ivy's anthropomorphic animal characters. The entire comic takes place in a wooden room. The white space of the comic is slightly tan. In the first panel, an anthropomorphic cardinal gynandromorph and an anthropomorphic dog, Roman Filcrow, look at each other, with the panels focusing solely on their eyes. They both have heterochromia. In the next panel, the cardinal waves while standing in front of an open door, stating "I'll be back to pick up the type next week, Mr. F!" Roman waves back in the panel after that, his eyes shadowed. He says, "Er—Of course. Have a good day!" Starting off-panel but gradually entering from the right, fellow anthropomorphic dog Lucy Filcrow looks at Roman, asking, "Romie? Roman? Oh, there you are. What's wrong?" Roman adjusts his tie and says, "Er, well, nothing, Lucy. I just..." The final panel shows a brown feather lying on the floor, left by the cardinal. Roman's dialogue continues above the feathers, "I can't imagine it. Wearing your... condition on your being like that."

Same cover, same subject, over the course of 3 years

#Furry #FurryArt #FurryFandom
Digital art collage of four versions of the same image: Ivy's character Linda Sukaalii, an anthropomorphic flying squirrel, holding a green umbrella during a storm and walking toward the camera. From left to right, four images show the same drawing in 2023, early 2024, late 2024, and 2026. Other notable details about the images include that the umbrella goes from dark green to a more olive green colour over time, that the original 2023 image is lineless and has a sidewalk, that starting with the early 2024 version Linda is holding her hand out to catch a raindrop, that Linda's coat goes from a trench coat in 2022 to an open high-collared jacket in 2026, and that Linda has a significantly darker fur colour in the 2026 version.

And, as always, here's the image by itself if you just want to see it!
The image has a blue starry background, and text at the top reads '2025 Art Through the Months!' Twelve digital art drawings, captioned with the months, are below, each featuring at least one of Ivy's anthropomorphic characters. January's drawing has bear Phil Astatos, blackbird Phoenix Agnelli, wombat Xavier Womack, dormouse Michel Dupuy, and chameleon Léon Verdier standing in a group. February's drawing has Léon with his daughter Aisha. March's drawing has Linda Sukaalii and SC Tejada talking while walking side by side. April's drawing has Michel Dupuy putting a hand on Léon Verdier and surprising him. May's drawing is a map of Mapicca. June's drawing is Ivy's own avatar lying on her back. July's drawing is a frutiger-inspired Mercury symbol. August's drawing has caracal Nikola deLuna standing in a green cyber background with a glowing butterfly symbol. September's drawing has Michel Dupuy and Léon Verdier walking down a street at sunset. October's drawing has dog Win Filcrow sitting in the corner of a box. November's drawing is a colour wheel focusing on characters' glasses. December's drawing has opossum Wendy del Fidi riding a motorcycle and spurge Egbert Cyathis holding on for dear life.

Mapaalii has 12 consonants and 9 vowels, for a total of 108 letters! For instance, here's every letter that begins with a "p" sound... [4/8]
White drawings on a black background of an identical upright oval with a variety of symbols inside of it denoting sound. They are labelled left to right: "pa" with one horizontal line, "pe" with a diamond, "pi" with one vertical line, "po" with a circle, "paa" with two horizontal lines, "pii" with two vertical lines, "pu" with two circles, "pæ" with one horizontal and one vertical line, and an ending syllable of just "p" with no inner symbol.

My super awesome and cool Bead Language is here after literally a week of planning and reworking, so here's the deets 🧵 #Writing #Conlang [1/8]
White drawings on a black background of three phrases in Mapaalii, a constructed language that resembles strings of beads. In said language, they read, from top to bottom, Mapaalii ("mapaalii"), farewell ("selinciidaara"), and hello ("hatæyii"). The first symbol of each phrase resembles string curled over itself, and the last symbol of each resemble tied knots.

Pre-release things because I have nothing to show, part 5:

Another scrapped book, Not My Type. It starred a wide variety of personified fonts, I think? I don't even remember who the protagonist was, but I remember Wingdings was a set of triplets (one for each symbol set).

#Writing
A mockup cover for Ivy's scrapped book Not My Type. The cover depicts several images of family trees supposedly of font families, with the four visible labels being "Oldstyle", "Sans-Serif", "Geometric" (cut off before the R), and "Dingbat" (cut off after the I, and written in Wingdings). The centre of the cover has the title written against a mirror similar to the family trees, and the "label" reads Owlkalinity.

Completely and totally late for this, but I just found this incredibly funny. I need to at *least* have an average of 1 post a day next year! #BlueskyHarvest

Pretty sure these expire, so I'm not linking mine, but you can see this for yourself by going to anisota.net/harvest/ and looking up "Ivy ♧".
A screenshot of a section of Ivy's Bluesky Harvest results, showing a category called "Grass Touching". A line graph marked with "Online", "Balanced", and "Offline" is in the middle of the box for thia category. A circle is in the "Offline" section, as far as possible to the right. The text below says that Ivy is a daytime poster with an average of zero posts a day.

That was the cover for only the first book, but I did draw different gems for all nine books
Nine airbrush-style digital art drawings of oval gems containing the silhouettes of moths and butterflies. They are, clockwise from the top: a pink gem with the silhouette of a sphinx moth, a red gem with the silhouette of a longwing butterfly, an orange gem with the silhouette of a comet moth, a light green gem with the silhouette of a luna moth, a green gem with the silhouette of a urania moth, a light blue gem with the silhouette of a morpho butterfly, a blue gem with the silhouette of an eighty-eight moth, and a purple gem with the silhouette of a wasp moth.

Pre-release stuff while I regret my authorial life, part 4:

Yet another scrapped series of mine, LepidoGems, which sees the girlfriend of a minor character from Book About Motorcross saving a bunch of magic insects while said boyfriend has a category 5 autism event the whole time.

#Furry #Writing
The mockup cover of the first book of LepidoGems, with pink glowing text reading "LepidoGems". Below that is an airbrush-style digital art drawing of a pink oval gem containing the silhouette of a sphinx moth with wings spread. Below that is text reading "Pandora the Sphinx" and "Owlkalinity".

Pre-release stuff because I have no fruits of my labour to harvest yet again, day 3:

More scrapped books, this time one I called "That Dream Store". As the name suggests, it was based on a dream I had. Problem being, it was also basically an Undertale Dollar Store AU.
#Furry #Writing
The mockup cover of A Dream Store. Across the top are four coloured silhouettes of the book's characters: a green one having a smooth body and head, a purple one with fluffy ears and a tail, a blue one with floating hands and an oval head, and an orange one with a sun-shaped body and long legs. At the centre towards the bottom is the protagonist Stef, a young human child of ambiguous race, looking up with a sweat drop symbol. The text "That Dream Store: A Subconscious Tale" and the Owlkalinity logo are at the bottom.

#Furry #FurryArt #FurryFandom
Four digital art drawings of the same anthropomorphic barred owl character, Ivy's personal avatar. The top left image is against a solid green background, and shows Ivy with their wings clasped and an annoyed expression, complete with 'angry vein pop' symbol. The top right image is on a blue background and has Ivy, greyscale and covered in static, with a black, drippy squiggle and a realistic blue eye with a cuttlefish pupil replacing her face. Despite this, uncanny Ivy is blushing. The bottom left image is on a teal background and shows Ivy with a question mark above their head as they look to the left in a neutral pose. The final drawing on the bottom right has a pink background and has Ivy happily closing her eyes and outstretching a wing, with a heart floating above her head. There is an overlaid Owlkalinity watermark.

[1/6] Have a Wendy and Eg this fine Sunday afternoon (for me anyway), and stick around for a 🧵 on how I feel about my artstyle lately, before my 2025 art summary drops on the 31st!
#furry #furryart
Digital artwork of Ivy's characters Wendy del Fidi and Egbert Cyathis. Wendy is an anthropomorphic opossum wearing an all-red racing jumpsuit, and is riding a dark red motorcycle. Egbert is an anthropomorphic wood spurge, resembling an orangeish humanoid with a flower and various leaves growing out of his body, wearing a green vest and hat. He is clinging to Wendy and holding onto his hat. There is an overlaid Owlkalinity watermark.

A funny ass side effect of being a furry is that my attempts at anthropomorphic *plants* actually look more like humans than any of the anthro animals do

#AnthroArt #FurryArt(?) #FurryFandom
A pair of digital art drawings.of Ivy's character Egbert de Cyathis, an anthropomorphic Mediterranean spurge plant, who has tan-and-green mottled skin and a green eye. In the main drawing, he is wearing a green newsboy hat, a white shirt, and a matching green vest. He has four cybernetic arms in a variety of poses, and two cybernetic legs with flared, bird-like feet. He also has a "tail" and a "cowlick" of pointy, green spurge leaves. The second, smaller drawing to the left shows the right side of Egbert's face, where instead of an eye he has a spurge's false flower. A caption under the second drawing reads "Silly euphorbia man" in white. An Owlkalinity watermark is overlaid.

I love redesigns because I get to mess around with different features and colours yet again, and get to see improvements from the previous incarnation (shading go brrrrr).

But I also get the chance to realize I actually really like a character and should outline more of the book they're in...
A digital art drawing of Ivy's character Wendy Delfidi, an anthropomorphic opossum. She has reddish-orange hair, green eyes, and pinkish accents and whiskers. She is wearing a red racing jumpsuit and matching boots. She has one arm stretched behind her and the other arm bent to make a peace sign near her face. Said arm also has a black cybernetic hand with colourful fingertips.
