Growing Together - Storyline

Welcome to the Growing Together series. This is a personal NSFW illustration project in which the two main characters, the gryphons Greif and Byron, grow up simultaneously as my X followers. The idea was quite simple at the beginning, but it has become more complicated (thanks for supporting the project) and it can be a bit confusing to follow the story as it jumps from decade to decade. I'm not complaining, I think it's a very exciting and original way to approach an illustration project, and I'm going to keep it that way.

At the moment, there are a lot of illustrations that jump around in the story (depending on which decade our characters are in), so you've come to the right place to follow the story in the right order. Let's go!

You can purchase the NSFW illustrations at my Online Store or explore them on Furaffinity, Itaku, Sofurry, X and Instagram.

TW-01

Birth of Byron Leyclaw and Greifswald Goldcrest. They are the last gryphons to be born before a mysterious event in which all gryphons become sterile. Greifswald's father, who represents the Goldcrest stallion lineage (known for the number of offspring they have contributed to the gryphon society), embarks on a journey to find the origin of the phenomenon and a possible solution.

TW-02

Although they are not siblings, Byron and Greifswald become best friends due to the closeness of their families and the media's interest in them. Despite the social upheaval caused by the incident, known as The White Drought, the children's childhood develops normally.

TW-07

At the age of 18, Byron and Greif (as they call him for short) start at Lewis University. On their first day, the two stare in awe at the entrance with the statue of the founder, Lewis. The only known albino gryphon, the wisest of all gryphons. He disappeared at the age of 100 and his body was never found. According to legend, he flew to the stars to learn what he could not find in books. That is why the motto of the university is Ad caelum et stellas (to the sky and the stars). Here they know many gryphons, which the society calls curlands (short for curly-land), characterized by a furry, curly tail and the lack of wings (you can also see Hesper in the foreground, it is also his first day). Although in recent years there has been little discrimination (in fact, there is a great deal of philia toward them because of their large muscles, fat tails, and slender buttocks), this race of gryphons has suffered greatly in the past because they were considered inferior.

TW-03

Greif developed a lot of hair during puberty because he comes from the Goldcrest lineage, which is characterized by alpha males with long, dark feathers. At their first college party, the two friends get drunk for the first time and their confidence grows. Greif feels a little overwhelmed by having a family name and genetics with so much history, and he feels he can't live up to what society expects of him.

TW-09

Abbie is a very attractive and sociable girl. And she takes advantage of it to fuck all the males she finds attractive. That's why, when she heard that a Goldcrest had arrived in the first year of college, she quickly went for him! Her dream is to get pregnant and the multiple efforts to get pregnant, unsuccessful for the moment, have given her a philia for semen and for being inseminated.

TW-08

University classes have already begun, and Byron and Greif are adjusting very well to their new routines. They are both good students, but Greif has not been to class all day, and in the evening he asked Byron for his notes, who was already relaxing in their shared room. What happened to Greif?

30 years old

-----------------------------------

TW-04

In their 30s, these gryphons are at their best professionally and emotionally.

Byron (left) is a bodybuilding model for sports brands. He poses for the image of GryphonPower protein and testosterone shakes. Due to The White Drought (lack of births in the population), the government gives this drink free of charge to the whole population. There is also a version for females with FSH hormone. He is dating Abbie, a young female ready to have her first breed, but so far, without success.

Greifswald (right) works as a scientist in the GryphonPower labs and provides his friend Byron with a test version of the shake with higher testosterone levels. Greif's father, an Alpha, genetically gave him his thick feathers, which puts him under a lot of social pressure to find a mate. He has just met Sarah in the GP labs and falls head over heels for her.

TW-06

Although the stigma of the curlands (see TW-07 for more information) is fading, there are still people who have less respect for these gryphons, or consider them second class, even though it is known that these are only aesthetic genetic traits. As a result, Hesper has developed a shy and introspective personality. Hesper shared his college years with Byron, and his sexual desire for the handsome blue gryphon grew over the years, though they never spoke directly and were never friends (even Byron and Greif once teased him about being a gay curland). Now in his 30s, he spends his time watching Byron's superstar media idol events and online commercials, buying all the GryphonPower merchandise, Byron's fitness books, novels, and the most explicit toys. He fantasizes about having a relationship with Byron and is jealous of Byron's girlfriend, Abbie.

40 years old

-----------------------------------

TW-05

Byron and Greif have had a decade of professional and family growth.

Byron (right): remains the most famous face of GryphonPower in the public eye and continues to work as a model. He has written fitness books and novels and has had his and Abbie's first baby in 35 years, little Nisa. A year later, Neil was born, the first boy in 36 years.

Greif (left): The birth of Nisa (Byron's daughter) was a scientific achievement and everyone celebrated. Greif's fertility discoveries in the GryphonPower labs brought him worldwide fame and the freedom to experiment. With his girlfriend Sarah, he gave birth to twins Pholus and Beaker, who inherited their father's Alpha genetics and the entire Goldcrest lineage, with long, dark feathers that appear at puberty. But... everything has its price, and after years of spending too much time on science, Sarah ends her relationship with Greif.
