A little conversation I had with the creator of Jaycize yesterday. For privacy reasons, I won't rewrite his messages verbatim. I'll only transfer my own here in case I want to cite my messages on Miraheze. (Not sharing the context because of spoilers)
Him: "Will the puppy [Kurky] have significance in the lore?"
Me: "Yes. It will have beef with Raka, one of the main antagonists. (When it grows up, it's going to stand in four legs and take advantage of him.) [...] Since you're the creator of Jaycize, I can also talk about the lore that ties to them. Basically, this dog may have an indirect impact on Jaycize. For context, a lot of Autumnal countries dislike each other, including Autini. Same for Crystaly and their Hibernal community, but replace hate with love. I can even say Crys likes anycountry.
Anyways, Autini is this dog's best friend, even after this Autumnal animal grew up and became anthropomorphic. Meanwhile, Crystaly wants to avoid it as much as possible. (it reminds them of a past event, back when Crys was vulnerable) If Jaycize is aware of the exception, I don't know how they'd react to be honest. (Probably a lot of confusion) Maybe they'll think Crystaly is fake because Crys pretends to like everycountry by default, and man's seeing the true side. Maybe they'll dislike Autini for the favouritism (if Jaycize even cares)."
Him: "Unless it has a big impact and blocks Jaycize from their main goals, the favouritism won't affect them."
Me: "TBH their main goals might not even align. A good amount of Autumnal countries need to get out of their miserable poverty and need to stop seeing each other as threats, so much so they adopt militarism. They envy the wealthy and peaceful Vernal countries, but they don't know how to become like them. (Not even I know how to save them.) Meanwhile, Jaycize out there might think militarism isn't a problem, or focuses on being the most technologically advanced. [...] Now that I think about it, would the Turkish dog even affect the Autumnal community much? They already fight a lot, so the favouritism is only an extra reason to keep fighting. They'd attack blue Turkey regardless of how Autini treats that country.
I guess B-Turkey will only affect Jaycize's perception of Crystaly. Not just Jaycize, but a handful of Hibernal countries. If these guys can't handle the ugly truth, Crys is getting two conflicts: making their community feel unloved, and a problem I mentioned earlier: being jealous of Autini for Mayia. Both of Jaycize's seasons are cooked."
Today, I had a smaller conversation about Kurky with an anonymous person who read the previous one. Here's how it goes: (This time, only with a bit of context.)
Me: "OMG HELP CRYSTALY ALSO DOES THE SILENT AND INTENSE STARING WHEN THEY'RE MAD [...] Like, imagine they [...] see an enemy [...] That moment would be very unexpected because Crystaly loves everyone by default."
Them: "oh Crystaly sounds so sweet 😭😭"
Me: "They seem like it, but are they? That dog I yapped about reveals everyone's secret side."
Them: "Two faaaaceee"
Me: "fr everyone acting different around Kurky(the dog's name is Kurky) except Mayia."
A random conversation with the same person on the same day before we dive deeper into Kurky lore:
Me: "HELP I JUST REMEMBERED A FUNNY CATCHPHRASE. You know how Autini is a history teacher who witnessed the great war? He's gonna be like "back in my day, everycountry had to fight an evil Vernal country""
Them: "LMAO “back in the golden ages” ahh character 😭🙏"
Me: "my guy, that age is NOT golden. Crystaly has war trauma from it so bad that they avoid any country that reminds them of the Vernal nation."
Them: "Ah damn mb 😭😭 “back in the dark ages**”"
Me: "Every day is a dark age for him lmao. Constant civil wars and wars between other Autumnals to deal with. You can't help but wonder how the hell he got stuck in such a shitty seasonal community."
Them: "Well gah damn my guy is going through it 😭🙏"
Me: "I mean, it's Hell."
Okay, now here's the original description I wrote for Kurky on 1 July 2025, but that I forgot to post:
"Kurky (Etymology: a port-manteau of "quirky" and "Turkey")
A shy country I made as a joke, informally known as "Cold Turkey" and "Goofy". Goes by any pronouns. (Gender: miaspec; vaguely male) Kurky is similar to Xealand, except the details are wack instead of absent.
Kurky is an Autumnal country with "common Autumnal" opthalmology.
Their capital is Arakna and their largest city is Lubnatsi.
Their demonyms are "Kurkish" and "Kurk". There are 85,664,944 of these guys.
The country was established on 1 July, 170 years after Autini. 55 years later, i.e. currently, it's still present.
Kurky has a lot of things missing: hands, family, money, happiness, sanity, and a home.
Kurky is a fifteen-year-old dog who aspires to be a farmer.
Relationships:
Kurky doesn't mind Raka's illegalism. In fact, ze enjoys some of his magic tricks, and they always share KFC with each other. However, their friendship ended after Kurky borrowed a lot of Raka's money without his permission. While Kurky misses Raka, ze avoids him to prevent future problems.
Kurky is Autini's favourite student, but nocountry understands why, not even his wife Mayia. Autini claims that among many Autumnals facing hardships, Kurky deserves it the least...
Extra facts:
Poultry is in high demand in Kurky, considering this country doesn't ask for much.
Kurky is physically unable to smile, even when he is happy."
Chit-chatting about Kurky!
