speaking of fucked up overly hated female twdg characters i find it Super Interesting how people will say carver was the best villain in the whole series, but when lilly is literally just a successful carver (iron fist leader of a community turning children into soldiers) suddenly shes a bad/lame villain for some reason 🤔

(about aroace alastor)

... aroace people can date people????? where did you people find the impression that we can't or that we don't feel romantic or sexual love /lh. information about aroace people is so limited and far / few in between that if viv were to actually canonize alastor's sexuality, he would be amazing representation alongside being shipped or canonically being in a relationship. there is so little aroace representation like that and i crave to see more!!!!

to explain further, the general definiton for aromantic and/or asexual is a "orientation defined by a lack of or limited sexual/romantic attraction". some aro/aces feel absolutely no attraction in these aspects, some feel it sometimes or only towards certain types of people, and some people have fluid/ever changing feelings.

for example, aegosexual, which describes someone who feels disconnected from the subject of arousal, generally have little to no sexual attraction, but still consume sexual content, engage in sexual fantasies, or even masturbate! another example is lithromantic, which describes someone who feels romantic attraction but doesn't want it reciprocated or loses attraction when it's reciprocated, they may enjoy romantic relationships in theory but most likely will feel no romantic attraction or enjoyment in a romantic relationship.

i beg you guys, please learn about each of the spectrums before engaging in discourse about it. there are so many beautiful and cool labels people use to describe themselves, and if someone whose on either spectrum could see themselves in alastor and ship him even so, that's another win. please

- an aroace

Oh, definitely! Thank you for the informative ask.

How do you feel about tall buff Varian by now? After all the fandom drama.

gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you aren't tall varian anon and answer this honestly

i do not care how people draw varian or what they personally like. i myself like drawing him fat and strong, and enjoy the concept of varian being tall. i also like drawing him curvy and tall, short and fat, masculine and feminine. Any combination of things, depending on what i'm feeling

what i don't like is how some people (mostly one person) in the fandom can ruin an interpretation of the character for everyone else. tall buff varian as a concept on its own? sure. not exactly my cup of tea but i can see the appeal.

tall buff varian after all of this bullshit? It makes me less inclined to like art depicting him that way and less inclined to draw him that way myself, which sucks bc i do enjoy a good tall boy

and i wouldn't call it drama as much as i would call it one (or perhaps two or three? i'm still not certain) person's constant harassment of the fandom.

i have gotten some absolutely vile things sent to me. racist, homophobic, ableist things said to me over this. not only that but back when this all started this person went to my fiance and said horrible shit, all in an effort to get me to respond when i ignored them.

so overall, i think people should just draw what they want, take characters and make them their own, but seeing tall buff varian puts a bad taste in my mouth after this, even when done with the most innocent intent so yeah, thanks to that person for being a little bitch

what if I stream tonite. for dragon business

[keeps-ache]

The OCs you posted recently look really cool- could you talk a bit about them? Maybe the antagonists as well?

!! oh thank you :D

suuure yea :>> it's a smaller, newer thing of mine so not a lot n some of it may change!! but here's some profiles lol,

✧ Tide (the square head; they/them) is some sort of creature thing who lives in a remnant of an old world that decayed a long time ago after finding themself trapped there (that changes after they meet the goddess). they're head over heels for the goddess that still remains in the corridors there and they're not very normal about it hbfhvs - they can't be killed by any regular shmegular means and i have fun with that loll

✧ Vernor (ponytail gal; she/her) i don't have a lot for her, but she ended up in the same place Tide did and is very upset about it, understandably. she's good a martial arts and cries easily, and is pretty suspicious of most strangers :) she has a small knife-thing that works like a witch's broom (you have to hold the little handle for dear life though lmao) but i haven't gotten around to drawing it so !

✧ Dire (red circle; he/him) was created by the aforementioned goddess to dump emotions/thoughts she didn't want into, and then just sent him on his way lmfvhsh - because of that he is confused most of the time and still pretends to know everything but is figuring things out for real lol :3👍he hates to change his clothing and is snappy, and the snappiness may get worse on personal proximity hbfshv

^ these three have a Thing goin on. mostly qpp cuz i think it's fun :33

✧ Sleepy (the antagonist, he/him) the elusive guy. elusive bc i haven't drawn him lmfsh - another budy trapped in this old chunk of a dead world, he is also upset about it but to a much more desperate extent lol - his name isn't actually Sleepy but Tide nicknamed him that when they first met and now he can't seem to shake it hfsh, he Does hate it :) he is violent but he can play nicies so he does that most time loll

✧ the goddess (only thing holding this world together, She/her/it (capitalization is optional :3)) has been here for ages, ages, ages. her world's been long dead but she just keeps living for the monotony of it hfsh; plus, it's like her job never ended if she just keeps doing the same regular things she always did. bc of that it's actually preserved her chunk of annihilation, and sucks other creatures in w/o her knowing. the chunk is like a maze that keeps changing shape, so unless you can see it from a god's eyes the place is iiiiiinfinite! and terrible; the place changes to her moods and wishes, which can be interpreted p strangely lol :3 she's talked to and kept Tide around bc she needed somebody to deal with all these weird people coming into her dang house, and it's worked out fairly well (dubious)! :D

the world-chunk is inspired by vaporwave, abandoned malls, and the distinct smell of chlorine my mother has sometimes loll :)

I don’t know, me personally, I just think two adults playing pretend & pretending being gross together with full open communication & consent between them is harmless, but maybe that’s just me.

Wearing a full face of makeup for the first time in a year is wild. It feels like wearing mud. People do this every day???

[pynkhues]

I think it depends on which part of fandom you're in, in my experience from what i've seen in fanart Armand and Lestat are the most feminized characters and Louis is actually overtly masculine (I think there may be some racial bias at play here too), they are also the ones most often reffered to with feminine pronouns (I don't think i've ever seen anyone refer to Louis or Daniel as a c*unt or babygirl which I find interesting). I've also seen a lot of takes on twt saying that since Lestat is more 'feminine '(cause he's flamboyant emotional and has longer hair which is funny to me) as a proof that he's an exclusive bottom lmao. At the end of the day people gonna twist canon to jusify their personal preferences and it was always like that in any fandom that I was in.

That's really interesting that you've been seeing that, anon! Fandom pockets - especially in a fandom as large as this one seems to be - definitely do pop up and it's always fascinating to see what interpretations of characters and character dynamics crop up as a part of that. I've seen a bit of the Lestat and Armand feminisation, but I tend to read the cunt / baby girl comments about them as a bit more tongue-in-cheek than the reading of Louis as the gothic heroine / housewife which I tend to read as being taken as critical analysis, but that could very much just be a result of what I'm exposed to.

I have pretty limited engagement on tumblr and I'm not on twitter, so I tend to find my widest indication of popular fandom reads of characters is through fic, and the reading of Louis very specifically as the gothic heroine / housewife / mother I'd say is probably the most common one that I see that way? I also find people in fanart tend to draw Lestat as a lot taller / more muscular in comparison to Louis, which is always interesting to me too, so I'm fascinated by the fact that you've seen a lot of the reverse where fanart of Louis is overtly masculine! I probably am very much in a niche, haha.

[strangerhands]

ohmygodddddd i am a fucking genius...👁️ the fic idea i just came up with. the Specific Line i thought up. its such a random idea but its so so cute and sweet and ugh its gonna plague me forever. kinda proud of myself to be honest so lets just hope i can Actually write it soon🧎

[lielove]

what soft romance cliché are you ??

the almost kiss.

you're unsure about things, always hesitating. why is that? maybe there's something to lose for you, but maybe (just maybe) the risk is worth it. you're the moment when the main characters lean in, lips parted and almost touching. but it's not the actual kiss everyone loves, it's the anticipation. when they look into each other's eyes before their lids flutter close. and there's a lot of frustration when things are interrupted. trust me though, you're a lot more memorable than the actual kiss. you're nervous, but at the end of the day all you want is to be loved.

fr tho like a big part of consuming wrestling for me is that it makes me think and analyze stuff. like i enjoy the homoerotic rolling around and aesthetically beautiful people as much as everyone else, but i also love it when my brain is stimulated and challenged in a more thinking way with this sport especially

[survifor]

i’m sorry i just can’t get over it all rn………

[fractallogic]

You know, I haven’t fully wrapped my head around how I’m going to incorporate it, but I had a great idea for this grant proposal that’s making me very excited

Because I think. finally. I will be able to justify testing arabic-speaking children. I will get to find out what kinds of errors THEY make learning my arabiclike made-up language.

And plus I’m realizing that I like portland more than eugene, and oops, the two Islamic schools and the one Arabic-medium school are all in the portland area oh no I will have to spend so much time in portland if I get this grant oh well

…plus I just really want to be able to stay in one place for three more years, and let scone live in Oregon like he’s really wanted to for YEARS.

I love arabic and I love my pastry and I love how kids do language. I am very excited about this part of the project and I just. The likelihood of it happening is vanishingly low. But it’s more likely to get this grant than getting a TT job. So.
