Two-headed four-armed variant of Vesta, just because I felt like it. Adding more than two heads to her, as much as it appeals to me to imagine, is kinda hard to draw in a way that makes it look comfortable (otherwise I would've done that here).
@dodec She could have more heads that aren't attached, like me, if you think that suits her style.
If I can get a better idea of what that would feel like, I might be into it.
@dodec I'm not sure I could explain it... But Felthry or I might be able to help you get a better idea of it later, if you want.
@Rosemary I'm curious about this and wondering what help you're offering.
Long, second person, modularity
@Rosemary @dodec This isn't my best writing ever, but it may help a bit. I should try again sometime when i'm actually feeling like being headless and can have the feelings right there to relate in writing. Anyway,
You've had two heads before, plenty of times, but this time feels different, somehow. As you awake and sit up, reaching out to turn off the alarm... You see yourself sit up from behind, one of your viewpoints staying behind on the pillow.
Surprised, you turn your body to look, and see yourself, or rather your other head, still resting on the pillow, with no sign that it was ever actually a part of you. You yawn with that head and see your familiar rows of teeth, normally only ever seen in a mirror.
You pick up your head, consfused, and immediately feel dizzy as your head is turned more rapidly than you'd intended. Once you recover your bearings, you carefully turn it over, curious. The inverted viewpoint reminds you of when you would stand on your heads as a child, but without the uncomfortable feeling of blood rushing to your heads.
The bottom of it, where your neck ought to be, seems completely, perfectly rounded over, with nothing at all to suggest that something is missing. Touching that spot feels very strange, some part of your brain responding as though you had something stuck in your throat. You cough.
Righting your head, you go to sit down at your computer. You flipped your head too quickly again, though, and are struck by another spell of dizziness and a brief headache. It would normally take more than that to render you nauseous, but with one head moving and the other staying still, you get a feeling of motion sickness from the conflict between your brains. This is going to take some getting used to. You pull up a chat window, to ask a friend's advice; someone more familiar with this sort of thing than you.
