Mao - excessive enthusiasm (vore day 2023)

Aug 7, 2023

“Oh, I can’t wait to celebrate today with you all!”
&“Ah, how nice! Why, what’s today Mao?”*
“Vore day~!”
*“…!”

Good luck dealing with an excitable, hungry dog-girl when she discovers what the theme of the day is! Sure, she might try to keep calm and restrained, but that doesn't make her affectionate slurps any less dangerous. Not when you can already see someone getting lost into her mouth with her very first friendly lick of your group...

Finished early! Only by a day, and I'd hoped to get this done way earlier than that, but I think this is also close to a record for number of characters in a single scene, so it took a bit longer to pose everyone up.
Also, Mao's first scene already! I was toying with a few different ideas and characters, but... once the Mao idea was planted, I just had to go with it. :D

Mao (character profile)

Jul 1, 2023

New character time, and today it's another dog-girl to join Penny! Say hello to the very friendly Mao! <3

Like Penny, Mao is a Paeran, of the dog-girl variety, with perhaps a bit of beast-like tsubashii traits mixed in. Personality-wise she's more relaxed, calm, earnest... For a dog-girl at least, a relaxed demeanor but still brimming with affectionate friendliness and general oblivious disregard for personal space or other such things. She can't really help it!

To her credit, she is a bit calmer than most in other ways too; while she's excessively friendly and affectionate, and has that especially big appetite and penchant for gobbling up tiny people like you'd expect of a Paeran, she does really like to make friends with everyone, so it's not a guarantee that she'll just eat you if you're tiny (or shrink you if you're not)! Though still a pretty high odds of it ending up that way; she's surprisingly good at shrinking people without even thinking about it, or swallowing you without intending to... Easily distracted, a bit clumsy, she really does just want to be comfy and close with potential friends, but with her combination of traits, getting accidentally knocked into her food or licked up by some overly enthusiastic "kisses" is a very real danger with her. She's not quite so oblivious as to not notice if you do end up in her mouth! Just... also not quite so mindful about not getting carried away and swallowing on reflex. On rare occasions she'll figure out ways to get little friends back out, but most of the time it just means you'll have to continue your playdate some other day. :P

As is usual, there's still personality details that need figuring out, further character development and all. Friendships with her fellow doggo Penny and lots of others, scene and story potential, all that stuff. But I'm happy with this as a base so far! Been wanting to make another dog-girl (it didn't feel quite right having only one), and it was a fun opportunity to play around with other underused design traits.
