[c-kiddo]

btw thank u to people who add comments in tags on my art and things i make because i was thinking abt how i post art for the connection over making something, and how a lot of the time posting art feels like putting a lot of effort into something and then chucking it into a silent blank void. so basically thank u for people who connect with things with me its cool of u 🫶

[clover-mouse]

would any of you be interested in a nsfw/more adult art blog from me if i happened to make one? gauging interest because i've been thinking a bit about it! but i have yet to decide (for clarity too it'd probably be mostly anthro stuff)

idk if i'd actually draw enough for it to be used so often but it might be nice to give myself the space to make + share things with maybe sexual themes or just like nudity n stuff. it'd be similar in tone to my usual work (comfy, sweet) but yknow, content possibly not suitable for all audiences

[acebytaemin]

[sagxshi]

god i love getting put against well-skilled teams who spawn camp our team for two rounds in a row

and have the audacity to say “gg” as if they played fucking fairly

[dandyshucks]

also I got rly scared abt this last night or the night before because I suddenly realized sometimes people interpret it this way,,

so i just wanted to say that the reason i dont interact w people very much is NOT bc i think im better than ppl or anything - i am just very genuinely Petrified of messing up in social situations, to the point that I end up isolating and avoiding rather than risk making mistakes ^^;; WHICH ISN'T HEALTHY but . i havent figured out how to work through this yet dhdjdkl

BUT YEAH i just wanted to try to make sure nobody is thinking I'm some hoity-toity goober, I am literally just Extremely Terrified fjdjdkdl

#𝐂𝐀𝐍𝐎𝐍 𝐀𝐃𝐃𝐈𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒 and #𝐎𝐖𝐍 𝐋𝐎𝐑𝐄: some notes about who are the cosmic beings of 𝑐𝑎𝑒𝑙𝑖𝑛𝑔𝑠 as a species, i.e the ones born from the stars themselves, plus more information about the travellers’ (specifically 𝐀𝐄𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐑’s) nature, discussing particular characteristics of his nature (personality and body-wise). this post was cut for better visualisation so as to not pollute the dash, but all topics discussed are sfw.  part  2 / ?   of caeling’s data-log. will be continued.   |   to understand it in depth, read the prologue here and part one here.

as specified in previous headcanons posts (see above), aether isn’t human nor a living being for that matter—he’s a caeling, a creature created by the cosmos itself, stardust embodied in one being to complement another and form a perfect weapon. originally created to be a soldier to follow every order of the universe to keep its essence in perfect balance, travelling through galaxies to fulfil their wishes, he slowly began to develop his own set of morals, ethics and personal thinking as he started to get to know more living beings, planets, cultures, histories, etc. however, such independence and sentience is fairly new to him, considering his many years of existence.

aether and lumine were created to act as an organism, with one complementing the other in battle techniques and personalities. regarding the latter, if you meet both twins, you can immediately draw out how much of an opposite pair they’re, even if they emanate a similar aura. lumine is suspicious of people, whereas aether is much more receptive to them. when they’re in a new world, lumine prefers to gather resources and trinkets, whereas aether prefers to explore and memorise what he sees and experiences. lumine tends to be more practical and goal-oriented, whereas aether tends to see the details and focus on subjective matters and “what ifs” when they run into a problem. now that she isn’t around, aether tries to think as lumine would when he encounters a situation he can’t figure out. considering that he never had to be so independent before when they travelled together, it’s a very difficult task for him, but he makes due thanks to paimon’s help and the influence he received from his friends in teyvat.

his greatest fear is to be completely alone, forever—no lumine, no paimon, none of his friends. the thought alone causes him great anxiety. is this because of his design as a caeling that depends on another in order to be “whole”, as the universe insists on suggesting him? or is this a phobia he acquired due to what happened with the unknown god?

that being said, he has great separation anxiety. don’t misunderstand, he can go days without anyone’s company, completely isolated and still remain relatively calm—but when those days turn into a week, he quickly starts falling into a panic mode and he’ll look for anyone close to fill in the void he feels. yes, even enemies. he just doesn’t want to feel like he’s the only being left in the emptiness of existence. that’s probably why he makes sure to pay all his friends in teyvat a visit—he never wants anyone to feel the same, either.

very few things make him flustered, but pointing out that he’s being clingy or more affectionate than usual (especially if your muse and aether develop something more than just a friendship), is certainly one of them and he will blush and probably get a bit conscious about it. he’ll apologise as soon as you finish your sentence—and it’ll probably take a while before he makes any kind of physical contact again. yes, this includes casual touches, too. he’d just be that embarrassed.

when blushing, aether’s face doesn’t get pink or red like a human would; instead, his cheeks get a rich purple colour, close to a dark blue, and little starry freckles can be seen “dancing” through his nose and cheekbones. he’s a lightweight, so you can also see that for yourself if you take him out for a drink. in the rare case he accepts your invite (he’s very self-aware of those features of his, hence his carefulness), it won’t take long before he starts purpling and burping little constellations out of his mouth.

aether’s limbs are naturally blackened like the void (direct visual reference is above in the drawing i sketched, but here’s another reference on pinterest). when rid of his usual gloves, chest piece and pants, you can see that his limbs are as dark as the abyss—save for some glowy points, ingrained “crystals” in his skin (chest, writs, knees), the same ones that reflect his elemental talents. said crystals are very sensitive to the touch and he doesn’t let everyone go around touching them, especially the ones on his wrists. 

he almost never takes off his gloves, be it with hand-holding, simple caresses; not even during more intimate moments. if he does take his gloves off to feel your muse’s skin directly for whatever reason or scenario, know for sure that he’s deeply, madly in love with your muse. caelings have the ability to memorise physical, emotional and elemental sensations through direct contact with their fingertips and hand crystals. it’s a very intimate type of contact, similar to feeling one’s soul—and allowing them to feel yours in turn, if they so desire.

[demonsfate]

you said that jin is one dimensional because he only represents the struggle of not becoming your family. then you said kazuya is not one dimensional because he only represents using power to take back what's yours. that doesn't seem fair.

While I do think the incest in cassies books is a bit questionable I think it’s misogynistic to simply criticise just her instead of calling out other authors as well. Especially since there are so many males authors (such as Stephen king) who sexualise children in their books and yet no one talks about them…

i could bring up the misogyny in calling cassie the incest author when grrm gets nothing but praise for the most incest riddled books i have ever seen but i don't think people who can't even grasp that cassie is using it as a literary tool are ready to hear that
