Just some doodle from earlier this week. I was pleasantly surprised by ow well this scanned. c:

These are, in fact pony, ocs. Though I've never really shared much story about them. You don't really need to know much imo, but I'll type out just enough background to explain this thingy. (HUGE TEXT WALL WARNING)

---
There once was a gryphon who had lived his entire life in pony civilization for reasons that were never very clear to him. When he became independent- something most gryphons do at a very young age- he began wandering all the expanses of the Equestrian empire. He was never a very social gryphon, most ponies he interacted with were too bewildered by simply the presence of an intelligent being other than a pony. Later on, he is still a very solitary creature, keeping all his belongings in a sort-of really low altitude zeppelin that looks more like a bout floating at most three or five feet above the ground. The hovering boat doubled as his personal home as he moved from town to town doing random jobs in order to make enough money to survive another trip. The few friends he made were often restricted by this cycle.

The last thing this gryphon ever thought he might be is a care-taker or a mentor, all he cared about and the only one he ever needed was himself. But one day, after leaving a town in the southern badlands, he discovers that some unicorn foal has snuck their way onto his land boat. The unicorn foal is nothing short of oblivious to their situation and only seems intrigued by the strange creature's life style. The gryphon makes numerous desperate attempts to find the foal's home/parents but never actually comes to any avail.

The foal very gradually begins to grow on the solitary gryphon as time passes, little does the gryphon know that searching for the foal's parents is a very lost cause. The gryphon knows nothing of parenting and can be pretty awkward at times. He doesn't understand the diet of a young pony (he even tries to give the foal meat at one point) nor does he understand how to get a foal to go to sleep. He wouldn't want to be anywhere near another living thing while he sleeps, but the lost foal often has buried feelings of loneliness when they don't have the gryphon's attention. He much rather sneak next to the heavy-sleeping gryphon than sleep alone somewhere on the cold land boat.

Thank you kind person! I'm kinda surprised that you noticed those two had some kind of correlation.
