...ran out of time, but this flower pot is still bugging me. Can someone lend me a hand? (🎨 by @doggodraws.bsky.social) #TFEveryday #KpopDemonHunters
Part 3 of the three-part TF sequence. Professor Scritch has fully transformed into Derpy, now a large blue tiger creature sitting on the nursery floor. His body is covered in blue fur with darker stripes, and his large red-and-yellow eyes stare intently at the overturned flower pot beside him. Only his glasses on the ground nearby indicate that he was ever human.

I’m such a klutz… if I can just set this flower pot upright, maybe the changes will stop! But these huge, clumsy paws aren't doing me any favors... (🎨 by @doggodraws.bsky.social) #TFEveryday #KpopDemonHunters
Parts 1 & 2 of a three-part TF sequence. Professor Scritch is in a plant nursery filled with hanging baskets and green foliage. On the left, he is still mostly human, wearing a red vest and tie while holding a small flower pot, but blue fur is beginning to sprout on his face. One of his eyes is human, while the other has already changed into a large red-and-yellow tiger eye, and his expression is anxious and uncertain. On the right, after dropping the flower pot, he is further along in his transformation into Derpy, a blue tiger creature with red-and-yellow eyes, striped blue fur, and a long tail. Torn khaki pants and remnants of his shirt and vest still cling to his body, with his red tie still around his neck. His glasses remain, but look small given his increased size. He scratches his head with a confused expression, big sharp teeth projecting from his mouth. His shoes have completely burst, revealing large blue foot paws. A little human skin remains, along with his hair and beard, but he is very close to completing the transformation.

Really wish I had fur right now, even more so than usual! 🐶🧊

Tenure means a university can’t fire you, even in dire financial straits. It can, however, get very creative about finding you a new “permanent” position elsewhere on campus. (🎨 by @artbyhornbuckle.bsky.social) 👨‍🏫➡️🪨
TF Art: Professor Scritch transforming from a human into a stone gargoyle. He crouches on a stone slab, his lower body already turned to stone, with a tail tucked between his legs and dragon-like haunches, legs, and feet. A stone wing is beginning to sprout from his back. He looks up in shock at his still-human arm as his hand hardens into a cold stone paw tipped with claws. One ear has already turned to stone, while the rest of his face remains flesh. He wears only his recognizable tie and glasses, which will soon be the last remnants of his former humanity.

I know that for many folks the spring semester has just started, or is about to start, and I wanted to wish you all the doggone best! What class are you most excited about this semester? 📚🐶🎓

Okay, class, in science Occam’s Razor is a powerful principle: if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it’s probably a duck. Unless, of course, it’s your professor, mid-lecture, in the process of losing his humanity. QUACK?!? (🎨 by @artbyhornbuckle.bsky.social) #TFTuesday
TF Sketch: Professor Scritch, mostly transformed from human to duck, stands in a pile of his clothes, a tie still hanging around his neck and his glasses balanced precariously on his beak. Only his hair and goatee remain human. He stands in front of his satchel, which is almost as tall as he is now that he has shrunken out of his clothes. Splashes of color appear across his body: yellow along his bill, green feathers on his face, and blue feathers along his wing. He looks back at his tail feathers in disbelief.

When you make a wish to be less of a nerdy academic and more of a “party animal,” but your wish goes horribly wrong... (🎨 by @artbyhornbuckle.bsky.social, colored by me). #TFTuesday
Colored TF Sketch: Professor Scritch, dressed in a T-shirt and khakis, is in the middle of turning into a donkey-shaped piñata. He twists around to look at the streamers forming his new tail, while his stiff, blocky papier-mâché arms stick out in front of him as he starts to tip forward onto all fours. Colorful crepe paper has already wrapped over his neck and face, pushing them into a square little muzzle. One eye has turned into a flat, pasted-on circle; the other is still human, surrounded by the last scrap of real skin he has left, with a lone eyebrow and a small tuft of his hair hanging on. A few pieces of spilled candy lie on the floor near his feet.

When the train is delayed and you’re late to the first day of class, sometimes you have to make a few sacrifices (like losing your humanity) to meet students’ expectations! (🎨 by @artbyhornbuckle.bsky.social) #TFEveryday
TF Sketch: Professor Scritch is near the completion of his transformation from human to cheetah. His clothes have mostly torn away as he sprints on all fours, his satchel flying behind him. The transformation is nearly complete, with only his beard and human hair remaining. His expression is anxious and worried, and motion lines emphasize his speed.

Two years since the big move from Florida to the NYC area, and despite the challenges of 2025, it’s been a time of growth, gratitude, new friendships, and strengthened connections. Here’s to 2026! (🎨 by adabear-art.bsky.social)

It's the Never-Ending Lecture (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)
(🎨 by @artbyhornbuckle.bsky.social) #TFTuesday
TF Sketch: Professor Scritch is transforming from human into Falcor, the luckdragon from The NeverEnding Story. His clothes are mostly in tatters, except for the tie still hanging around his neck. Soft white fur covers most of his body, and large, fluffy ears hang down along the sides of his head. He looks back with a warm smile at his long body and sweeping tail.

Celebrating my second year as a vegan doggo. It’s been an incredibly rewarding journey, getting to know farmed animals as unique individuals, discovering fun and creative recipes and restaurants, and forming new human and animal friendships! 🐶❤️🐮🐑🐓🐐🐟🐰🦆🐷

The TF Wheel sounded like a lot of fun. Take a spin, transform for a bit, and eventually land back on human. Wait, what do you mean there is no human option on the wheel?! (🎨 by @artbyhornbuckle.bsky.social) #TFEveryday
TF Sketch: Post-transformation from human to jaguar, Professor Scritch looks back at his large, spotted tail. His glasses are barely balanced on his new, short muzzle, with remnants of his clothes still clinging to his body. All that remains visibly human are a single thumb on one paw, his hair, and his goatee.

Lesson learned. Probably best not to take Derpy’s hat, even as a joke! (🎨 by @artbyhornbuckle.bsky.social) #TFEveryday #KpopDemonHunters
TF Sketch: Professor Scritch is transforming from human into the magpie character Sussie from K-Pop Demon Hunters. Sussie is a six-eyed supernatural magpie, with three eyes on each side of the face. He is mostly covered in feathers at this point, except for one hand, which is grasping a small Korean gat hat. He is looking down at his foot, which has become a talon. Other than his hand, he still, for now, retains his human hair, his tie around his neck, and his glasses perched atop his beak. Sparkles swirl around him during the transformation.

I don’t get it. How will saying ‘Hakuna Matata’ help me feel less stressed with the end of the semester and the holidays coming up? Oh wait… never mind. (🎨 by @artbyhornbuckle.bsky.social) #TFTuesday
TF Sketch: Professor Scritch transforming from human to meerkat. The change is largely complete, with a big, fuzzy belly stretching beneath his shirt, vest, and tie. His face has pushed forward into a sharp muzzle, and his head swivels as if he has just caught a sound. His glasses still perch on his muzzle, and his face remains furless except for the human hair on the top of his head and a short goatee. Below him, his empty pants lie discarded as he stands on his animal haunches.

Ummm… can someone please help me with this flower pot? Maybe if I put it back, the transformation will reverse? (🎨 by @artbyhornbuckle.bsky.social) #TFTuesday #KpopDemonHunters #Derpy
TF Sketch: Professor Scritch is almost fully transformed from human into Derpy, the blue messenger tiger from Kpop Demon Hunter. He sits back on his haunches with one big paw pressed to his face. Shreds of cloth still cling to his body as he stares intently at the flower pot he knocked over. Aside from a single thumb and a bit of hair on his head, he has nearly completed his transformation into the character.
