[INK_AND_PLUSH]: Think I put this in the right spot ahhh.
[INK_AND_PLUSH]: Seen this with Complexes, they normally start with naming their age and gender, but honestly I forget how old we are. Let's see…
[INK_AND_PLUSH]: I (Creature ×2, They/It/Purr) and my best friend/roommate (Creature/food, She/Her)(I will refer to her as Ko) can't seem to agree on this. It hasn't caused any… huge issues, but she's been upset with me lately and I think she's overreacting a bit.
[INK_AND_PLUSH]: Whenever I or anyone gets hurt, she's very willing to heal us. You know, food type and all, and she really hate anyone suffering.
[INK_AND_PLUSH]: I know it's "fun tcp biology" but I have a problem with it being a friend. I'd rather just… either let it heal itself or eat something I bought.
[INK_AND_PLUSH]: Realistically I know what you get in stores also comes from food types, but that small bit of separation is all I need.
[INK_AND_PLUSH]: Now, if I was doing something… reckless and was dangerously injured, I'd of course let Ko heal me and be grateful. But my problems come from her reaction when I get a small injury, like a paper cut.
[INK_AND_PLUSH]: Yes my paw hurts, no I really don't want your tail please. Yes I'd rather have the jerky pieces.
[INK_AND_PLUSH]: I don't feel like that's a big deal! She's upset because I've been helping a different friend with their show's props lately so I've had an increase in like… hot glue related incidents. But nothing serious!
[INK_AND_PLUSH]: I'm also not a huge fan of the food she is. Minor problem but I don't know. 

[INK_AND_PLUSH]: TLDR: I'd rather buy food type pieces to heal minor injuries than have my friend heal me every time I get a paper vet. Am I the asshole?
[INK_AND_PLUSH]: Appreciate any commentary! Thank you for reading. We've been friends for a long time and this won't like end it, but I want to know if I'm missing something.  


(OOC: RATING SYSTEM for people unfamiliar
YTA: You're the asshole. This implies the OP is wrong and should take a look at the situation again.
NTA: Not The Asshole. This implies the other person is the asshole (Ko in this case)
ESH: Everybody Sucks Here. Everyone is wrong very wrong.
NAH: No Assholes Here. No one is an asshole. This doesn't mean no one is wrong, but it means you're not being an asshole. It just means op might need to take a look from the other person's POV  

You are also welcome to ask for more information if something feels vague or needs clarification. Then OP may or may not respond. 

A technical response would look like: 
"NTA 

Reasoning or explanation or some other statement"
But you don't have to follow form exactly

I can make a follow-up post with a different character as kinda an example if needed)

we have caught the petz design adaptation bug...and we require more designs to fuel this. in this thread you can make a mini design for us to put in petz and get a heaping pile of forum cash for it- enough to be used towards big rewards!

to start, pick one of these bases and edit away, preferably with the theme options and guidelines we have down below. we're pretty confident in our ability to hex a lot of things, so any kind of animal is fine, along with heavy edits to the base (within reason, simple shapes are always best for us)! wings, tails, weird heads, floating bits/halos, are all really welcome.

you can only submit one of these per month.



customizing one of these things will net you a hefty 500 forum cash. as with all forum cash, you can redeem it for quests/games that use it, roleplay purposes, or even select commissions/adopt batches. think of it like a mini art trade, i guess? 500 cash should get you two rolls on any of our active adopt gachas, at least!

fulfilling the month's bonus theme will get you an extra 250 forum cash. how you interpret the theme is up to you!

designs will have to be approved before the forum cash is sent- we won't suggest huge edits unless it's interfering with the viability of making the design, so play around and have fun. these creatures may also show up as for-fun characters in our petz worldbuild (not likely to be a quest, separate from phantom network/supercyber/friendzoo), so you may see them again in silly graphics/doodles!

rules to follow

- no ring-like markings if you can help it
- anything that can be displayed with a seamless texture is an inherently easier marking to work with than an exact + specific pattern (marbling, tiger stripes, spots, shapes, repeating patterns, etc, all of these are good and honestly really enjoyable)
- if specific markings like distinct patches, make em big, round and chunky, and preferably not on the front legs please god
- any face/head design is fine we're really good at faces by now. stylized faces are especially fun
- quadruped or we'll cry
- purples are viable but they may come out weird, same for greens. execute at your own risk.
- a simple but clear/well executed concept is always better than a super complex one


themes we are interested in

- cute (define as you will, this encompasses a lot of things)
- art (think based on art supplies/styles)
- horror (remember to spoiler if one's particularly spooky. also includes goofy cartoony stuff a la party stores and halloween)
- food (anything goes but especially candy/desserts)
- medical (please be respectful with this one. ask if youre not sure)
- fantasy (especially witchy stuff and mythological creatures)
- referential (feel free to ask what instances of media would qualify under this if you aren't super versed in our interests- we're interested in both stuff referencing our works and the games/movies/etc we enjoy. however- we prefer stuff that pulls from stuff Thematically versus outright design conversion. think color palette and design motifs.)
- scifi (includes tech in general, such as old computers and operating systems)
- nature (anything goes but bonus points for beach stuff)
- rave (includes 2000's deviantart/sparkledog aesthetics, think 90's-early 2000's in general)
- toy (self explanatory. any toy stuff goes)
- love (interpret as you will but hearts/valentine's theme is always good)

this month's bonus theme....

festive! interpret as you wish!
