''Space Beasts'' is a collection of stories, some on Furaffinity.Net, and some on Writing.com (in the form of campfires). There are also many scripts that were written on Final Draft that are yet to be published. It's a young series that may very well be an actual cartoon show/movie/web animation/comic book/whatever if the creator is lucky. Its premise is a mix of ''[[Star Trek the Original Series (TV)|Star Trek the Original Series]]'' meets ''[[Bucky O'Hare and The Toad Wars (Comic Book)|Bucky O Hare and The Toad Wars]]'', or, it could be described as [[Cordwainer Smith]] meets [[Mel Brooks]] with a liberal sprinkling from various Broadway musicals and plenty of [[Shout
The story follows the crew of The Fellowship; they're a motley crew composed of [[Uplifted Animals]] (called Humanimals) along with two humans (One is a former prince named Edward Green who marries the Second-in-Command, Minsk; the other is a homeless waif boy named Ichabod Crane who is adopted by the crew and serves as Team Doctor.) and one alien, (also a former Prince who marries the Captain, Matoaka.) The Humanimals of the crew are Matoaka Redfeather, a unicorn girl; Minsk Flemmingcoff, a mink girl; Bill Brandy, a bull boy; Jim Buckwheat, a squirrel boy; and Bob Buttz, a catfish boy.
Line 41:
** '''Jim''' and his apple pie.
** '''Marzipan''' got back to Earth after being held captive by the evil Ave Skeksis and his nephew Falco, the first thing she wanted was a hamburger with extra onions
** '''Bill Brandy''' is also quite fond of ice cream, particularly strawberry flavor after being allowed a taste of it after having a [[Near
* [[Conveniently an Orphan]]: Subverted with both Ichabod and Marzipan. Ichabod initially thinks he's an orphan but a few months later after he has met Marzipan, he finds out his parents are alive and are coming to see him. At first Ichabod is overjoyed, but quickly remembers that he had an [[Arranged Marriage]] to a human girl, one we conveniently forgot about when he met Marzipan. Ichabod does everything he can to avoid his parents but they quickly track him down and they know about his new engagement to Marzipan and they are none too pleased when they find out their son is engaged to a cat. Ichabod and his family inevitably reconcile but it takes at least half year to do so. Marzipan was kidnapped when she was eight years old after running away from home because of a spat she had with her little sister Emma. For many years Marzipan never knew weather her family was alive or dead, then she received a tip off that her mom, dad and sister were living in the sewers of Viola Streirra the seedy underworld planet. As for the Characters who actually are orphans. (Bill, Jim, Bob, Minsk, Kong and others) They will let you know the the fact they are orphans is NOT convenient.
* [[Cooking Duel]]: Frequently happens when Minsk and Marzipan's rivalry gets out of hand often very silly with matches like Minsk's borscht VS Marzipan's chicken soup, or something like that.
Line 62:
* [[Food Porn]]: Oh yeah, plenty of this, between having two characters being [[Supreme Chefs]] and almost everyone being a [[Big Eater]] this series is all over this trope like butter on toast (Mmmm! Butter!) Marzipan in particular seems to specialize in classic [[Comfort Food]] New England Clam Chowder never looked so good!
** In one episode where Ichabod is mad at Marzipan, she manages to get him to shut up by promising to make him some tea, her description of the tea is almost as lush as a phone sex actor describing what she is wearing.
* [[Free
* [[Furry Confusion]]: Averted. It is pretty clear that Humanimals are sapient and ordinary regular animals are not.
* [[Furry Fandom]]: in addition to [[Space Beasts]] being a [[Furry Fandom]] series itself, [[Furry Fandom]] exists in-universe as well, sometimes to the annoyance of the Humanimals.
Line 78:
* [[Interspecies Romance]]: Let's see...We have Human Boy and Cat Girl, Human Boy and Mink Girl, Male Alien Bird Thing and Unicorn Girl, Bull Boy and Human Girl, Human Boy and Zebra Girl, and one case of a Gorilla Boy having a crush on a Dragon Girl (But nothing ever comes of it) In fact of the very few couples in which the members are the same species, Jim Buckwheat and Jordan Celt (Both Red Squirrels) are the only same species couple that feature main characters.
* [[Killer Rabbit]]: Hopper the rockhopper penguin, a figure of legend.
* [[Literal Ass
{{quote| '''Bill''': It could be worse! The universe could hate your groin instead! }}
* [[Love Redeems]]: It certainly did for Falco,the tender kiss of a little blue dragon, turned that bullying [[Jerkass]] Ave into a noble hero.
Line 104:
* [[Scary Dogmatic Aliens]]: Aves are and unusual case, not so much 'Aliens are Nazis' or 'Aliens are Communists' but more Aliens are stuffy Victorian Era prudes. Kind of overlaps with Nazis with their 'No Interspecies Breeding Allowed' policy and their general obsession with 'pure blood'. Can you blame Poor Zander for his [[My Species Doth Protest Too Much]] attitude?
* [[Sex Slave]]: Yeah I know, As Squicky as it may be often times Humanimals are born and bred to be sex slaves. Jordan Celt was being 'groomed' to be her Master's concubine until Jim rescued her. Rose the Dragon Girl was captured to be a sex slave.
* [[Shout
* [[Snakes Are Sexy]]: Beauty Cherrystone a Cobra Girl, is in love with Ichabod and competes with Marzipan for his affections.
* [[Soapbox Sadie]]: Bill's Human girlfriend Samantha Star is notoriously political, particularly when it comes to saving the environment and animal welfare. She also [[Speaks Fluent Animal]].
