I've started getting out of my slump again. In the meantime, I've been cleaning out my nightstand, and in my drawer of 'tools', I didn't realize just how many feathers I've been collecting
![:XD:]( "XD")
I've become so fond of the big blue feather in
this picture that most of the others have just kinda been hanging out in the drawer. They really need more love
![:P]( ":P (Lick)")
I don't entirely remember when and where I got all of them, but regardless, I don't want to get rid of a single one.
This is also the first and only foot photo you're getting of me. No I am not going to take my sock off (trust me, my stripey socks are a lot more pleasant to look at than my borderline-albino feet) and I am going to ignore anyone who tries to ask me to post more foot photos. I only have it in there 1.) to give a fun size comparison of the feathers, 2.) to cover the corner of the desk in an aesthetically pleasing way, 3.) to help hold myself up while I took the photo since I was not only standing on my chair, but also on top of a few books just to get the right angle
![:XD:]( "XD")
Also, the creepy eye thing in the desk cup is a lifesaver
![:XD:]( "XD")
I've become addicted to Wintergreen mints again, lord help us all.
From left to right:Crow feathers: While the broader one isn't quite as tickly as the narrow one - which is
killer between toes - it's still a very nice-looking plume, and quite soft.
Brown Pelican feather: When I first found it, I thought it was an eagle feather but I realized after a Google search that I was wrong
![:XD:]( "XD")
It's a very stiff feather, and not really one I use for tickling, since 1.) even on my feet it doesn't get much of a response, and 2.) I really don't want to mess it up.
Small fluffy white feathers: These are leftovers from an ambitious Halloween project that kinda turned into a flop. I wanted to make angel wings from scratch and ordered a whole bag of these fluffy feathers, but the cardboard I used kept bending in the middle and the wings kept whacking people
![:rofl:]( "rofl")
I gave most of the leftover feathers to people in my dorm who wanted to use them, but I kept three of them. They actually remind me quite a bit of Kenisime's feathers, especially the one on the right.
Yellow and Red: I don't at all remember where I got them but hey, they're pretty and fluffy and very tickly
![:D]( ":D (Big Grin)")
White ostrich feather: This poor beat-up feather was one that I ordered when I first began realizing my pteronophilia. It was definitely a good friend to me during college when my roommates weren't around
![:giggle:]( "Giggle")
But regardless of how careful I tried to be with it, the quill just wore down and it has to wear a bandage now. But I just can't bring myself to part with it.
Purple feathers: All seven of them came from a cheap masquerade mask I got for Halloween one year. It looked terribly tacky with the feathers attached but I knew I wanted to keep them, so I just pulled them off
![:XD:]( "XD")
They're delightfully soft and I'm highly considering making a sort of device that would be able to utilize them all at once, or even to string through toes
![:blush:]( "Blush")
Giant blue feathers: My favorite feathers, not just because they're my favorite color but also because they're silky-soft and cover a lot of surface area.
![=P]( "=P (Razz)")
Both of them came off of a Venetian-style mask
which I may or may not have gotten solely for the purpose of owning those beautiful plumes.
