"I'm not an opportunity you should snooze on; my projects are never late, and my subordinates are always on task. Leadership and delegation are both instinctual to me. Keeping employees productive is my top priority, ensuring a soar in company profits and labor practices. I won't allow for distractions in our employees' work, whether it's firing cannons or unprompted door-to-door pranks. Under my wing, superiors are never left to pick up the slack.

-Tawney C. Esta's personal statement on their Cogs.Ink website page.

Featherbedder is a Regional Street Manager boss from Toontown: Corporate Clash. They roam the streets of the Drowsy Dreamland district. Featherbedder, also known as Tawney C. Esta, is characterized as being very sleepy and BRO I CANT TAKE IT I WISH THEY WERE BETTER CHARACERIZED!!!! I CANT KEEP GOING WITH THIS PROFESSIONAL TALK IN THIS SITUATION I JUST WANNA BE CRAZY ABOUT TAWNEY!!!!

HIII FEATHERBEDDER TAWNEY C. ESTA MY SPOUSE YAY!!!!! It's very rare for me to become attracted to a ficitional character since there's not a lot of nonbinary characters in media so Tawney C. Esta is a beautiful thing. Usually, I want my ficitional crush to do something evil to me like comically torture me (example Floofty from Bugsnax) but here I just want Tawney and I to have a gentle, tender domestic marriage. I think Tawney and I are a good match because we both have a love for being kind and antiques and stuff. We will cook eachother bountiful and tasty meals and watch strange movies together. yes. this is the life.

It took me a little while to fall in love with Tawney, but I think I always liked the character. I tend to get rather attached with characters that are canonically nonbinary or I perceve them as nonbinary, so I can see where it's coming from. However, one little detail about their design made me go gaga gay for them. Look at this render....

The eyes are everything dude. They're so beautiful. So full of love and whimsy; it's actually beatuiful. Tawney C. Esta forever. Ever and ever.

Tawney is made out of taxidermy, and somewhat crude taxidermy at that. They were made by Chip Revvington, who has a deep passion for taxidermy. Chip, who also possessed knowledge on how to make Cogs, made Tawney out of pure joy and curiosity, thus making Tawney a creation made by pure love and sincerity. However, Chip has a complicated relationship with Tawney since they remind them of themself in a couple of ways.

Tawney is very emotionally intelligent and is just a very very kind person. They have a hard time believing this however, not having the highest self esteem. Additionally, a lot of people perceive them as being "boring", which contributes to the lack of self confidence.

FUCK IT TAWNEY TOPSTERS

Tawney doesn't often get good oppurtunities to sleep due to their work schedule, so they take sleeping very seriously. They enjoy perfectly organizing their bed and stuffed animals to make the best out of their rest. A lot of Tawney's nesting behaviors/autistic rituals show up at this time of the day.

Talking more about Tawney's stuffed animals, they collect Beanie Babies! They attempt to give each Beanie Baby an oppurtunity to sleep with them, even though they prefer some plushies over others.

Tawney, due to how they were created, is this sort of "Anti-Cog". Unlike most Cogs, Tawney wasn't made with a particular purpose in mind and was made for fun by Chip. Tawney doesn't really feel much of a drive to work, though they are good at their job, and overall is a lot more sincere compared to other Cogs. They've decided to dedicate themself to being as kind as possible.

Just cause Tawney's dedicated to being kind, doesn't mean they dislike or hate anyone. Tawney struggles to get along with Treekiller, struggling to understand his cynicism and why he clings to rather dark humor/gross-out humor. DONT GET ME STARTED ON TREEKILLER. OR ANY CLASH CHARACTER. I HAVE A LOT OF HCS. Anyways, Tawney also has a bad relationship with Pacesetter/Graham, who both bicker with eachother in this comedically childish manner. In addition, there's people that Tawney holds much deeper reasons for hating, the CEO being the biggest example of this.

Tawney likes to go on walks, antique shopping, listening to radio (which is already canon), collecting/watching obscure movies, listening to music.

To talk more about the type of radio Tawney likes: It could considered rather boring, not really like the type of radio that's like that one Christian radio scene from Xavier Renegade Angel. They prefer the stuff that sounds "boring" asf. They're particularly a fan of radio that involves interviews or behind the scenes content. Like, they LOVE it.

Tawney actually isn't that big of a fan of Dana S. Charme's radio show. Sure they enjoy his personality, but his show is also quite overbearing and loud at times. The mainstream noise of the radio show just ends up making the broadcast feel less genuine.

TAWNEY C ESTA BRAVE LITTLE TOASTER FAN ITS REAL!!!!!!!!!!

Tawney gets overworked at their job at lot. Cogs do need sleep in order to preserve their battery, which Tawney doesn't get enough of. As a result, they rot out their battery, needing to get it replaced more frequently than the average Cog does. A Cog usually gets their battery replaced every 12 years, while Tawney gets its replaced every 2 or 3. Overall, these working conditions have somewhat ironically placed a financial burden on the fellow.

TAWNEY TUESDAY BABY!!!!

Tawney Tuesday is a challenge I started where I draw Tawney for every Tuesday of 2024. It's based off of this one prompt I say on a Corporate Clash "Cogtober" prompt list that said something like "TAWNEY TUESDAY GIVE IT UP FOR TAWNEY TUESDAY". Here is the link to the many Tawney Tuesday drawings.
