Happy pride! I figured this is as good a time as ever to vomit up all my queer resacted Headcanons!

David and milo are bisexual and asher is pansexual

Angel identified as "bicurious" for a while (in denial) but eventually (after meeting the other mates) came out as bisexual

Babe is also pansexual and gender fluid

Sweetheart is also bi and non binary

Sam dosnt identify himself with any labels but he is attracted to all genders

Tank is bi has a preference for women and sam takes that as a complement

Vincent is bi with a preference for men and lovely (cis female) takes that as a complement

Lovely (like many listeners before her) realised she was queer after meeting tanker

Will also dosnt agree with labels but he's the same as sam

Porter is a gay man who dose drag in his free time and treasure is trans masc

Alexis is the type of girl to meet a lesbian "try it" have it absolutely destroy her wold veiw then never speak of it again. Think any song written by chapel roan

Bright eyes is a trans masc gay man and Freddie is also gay

Gavin is a trans masc pansexual

Freelancer is non binary

Damien and Huxley are both gay but Huxley is the only one out of the two to find that out through trial and error eg hes experimented before coming to that conclusion

Lasko and dear are both gay men

Vega was wardens gay awakening

James is bi and his partner is the biggest cis het ally shes the type to wear a "I love my gay child" (if james and her did have a kid that is) t-shirt. She's the type to offer free hugs at pride parades to queer youths that dont have sporting parents

Smartass is a twink who wears long flowy skirts

Anton and love are both gay men

Asset is aro ace

Bestie is non binary

Honey is a trans fem and guy is pansexual

Trans Milo Headcanons 🐺🧡

(because I kid you not I thought that it was canon that he was trans when I first started listening until I was told otherwise)

: he came out when he was 13 (a few months before tank came into the pack)

: Man was sweating Bullets when he was coming out to his Ma. She’s the only parent he cared about and was terrified of the thought of losing her like this

: no surprise when he came out to Marie she was perfect. And cemented it in him that there’s nothing he can do that would make her love him any less 

“and don’t worry about your father sweetheart. I’ll handle him. and if he has anything to say about my boy well. He can make his bed on the curb”

(Colm had the fear of God instilled in him that day)

: The next week before school Marie saved up every dime she could even going so far as to ask for a small loan from the alpha (which he happily gave  and accepted no money in return) took Milo to get a few new outfits, cologne and a haircut 

: he specifically took Asher shopping with him and Asher was the best hype man  

: on the first day of school, this man was dressed, like Danny Zuko from grease (he Slayed)

: he was the hottie of the school. we’re talking three ask outs a week| the only person HE went to prom/dances with was Bailey 

(this is following the saying that confidence makes you attractive and boy did he get Hella confident after coming out)

: One time he was left stranded in the bathroom without a tampon/pad and Asher came in at around the same time analyzed the situation Milo was in and then stole tampons from  Amanda‘s locker, leaving a sticky note that says “pay you back later”

: there’s a tradition that every time a new male member enters the pack they get to have a run in wolf form alongside the alpha. And Milo got to run with Gabe after he came out 

: after he got top surgery Marie came by every single day during the first month of postop to help take care of him 

(the next one is a T4T sweetheart And Milo Headcanon)

: The first time they stayed the night together (milo’s first healing video) the next morning they both wake up early and witnessed each other taking their hormones and just kind of…👁️👄👁️

(commence the Spider-Man meme)

: Milo started testosterone when he was 18 (around the time he started working for Shaw security) and you better best believe Marie filmed every single month on how his voice progressed 

————————————————————————

I have more 😈

But for now I hope you enjoyed these 

Keep in mind these are my Headcanons based off of my experiences feel free to disagree with them, or leave your own I love seeing them

hey, do you have any suggestions for binding as a young trans man? my parents won't get me an actual binder, and i need a way to be comfortable with how i look without covering myself with a giant hoodie, especially because of the heat that my area's dealing with.

sorry to take up your time ^^' have a great day/night!

hello there! i'm sorry you're in that spot, i hope things get a bit easier for you soon, i know it's tough when parents aren't at all supportive. my go-to recommendation is always finding a sports bra that lacks cups and has a flat front, you can get some pretty good compression out of well-fitting sports bras! i also recommend layering clothing, even layering light clothes like tank tops, undershirts, t-shirts, light overshirts, etc. can work very well, you want to wear things that distract visually from your frame. loose fitting clothing can help a lot, even if it's just a little loose

hope that helps a bit! take care of yourself, good luck out there! if you need anything else, just let me know! thanks for stopping by!

[jakeluppin]

a couple asks ago, you said "whenever I start working on my novel, the first song I listen to is Pin" and now i'm super curious about your novel!! care to share any details??

okay so i have two (well, i have like twenty i've done bits on since i started writing but two that are still somewhat being worked on now) but one of them is barely anything beyond a rough idea so i'll focus on the one that's more legit

i wrote about 90% of a first draft (about 60K) and then realized there were some fundamental issues with it so i started over

i have about 16K done of my new draft, some of which is brand new and some of which is revised from the first

it's a ya romance because that's where my heart has always been

for main characters we have (which as i'm writing these i realize i am So Bad at describing characters in this way whoops):

jake - jewish trans guys who is only out to his older sister (rachel). at this point, their parents are gone/dead (i've been back and forth on exactly what went down) so rachel's raising him. he's been in love with his best friend (caleb) since basically forever. he does stage crew for his school's theater department.

caleb - jake's best friend. he's gay. he has a crush on their mutual friend peter. he's one of those people who are just so loving that it's so easily to just get lost in. but also a total dick at the same time?

peter - he's really into theater, always in every production, which is how jake and peter met. just before the story starts peter and caleb were running lines for something and peter kisses caleb. described by other characters as being the nicest person you've ever met.

and then there's asher - his family just moved to town as his mom is the new cantor at jake's synagogue. he's also into theater and auditions for the fall musical, alongside peter. jake and caleb are there watching and jake hears him sing and is like. oh. shit. i'm in love. it's not revealed until midway through the book but asher is also a trans guy.

it's basically just a coming of age love story where jake finds himself and love and it's just really gay and jewish and probably very self indulgent but who cares?

oh also i have switched which musical they do multiple times for various reasons and right now it's Newsies but it may change again. but obviously asher, my beloved, is cast as davey jacobs so it is pretty perfect in that regard

gonna just throw some random lines/short scenes from draft two under the cut because i can. feel free to not read them haha

“You can’t seriously be doing homework now,” Caleb scoffs a moment later. 

I look up from my assignment and just shrug. “I’m simply not as invested in this as you are,” I offer.

“But you should be. For me. This is an important moment in my love life.”

I chuckle. “I love you, Caleb, but I think overall if I was as invested in your love life as you are, that would be a little weird.”

“Nope. I’m pretty sure it’s in the best friend manual that you’re supposed to care about it as much as I do. Sometimes maybe even more.”

“Can I have a copy of this best friend manual? I want to check the exact wording on that.”

“Sorry, only one copy was made and I keep it under lock and key.” Caleb smiles bright, and I roll my eyes in response.

--

“But seriously, you were amazing at your audition. I’m not just saying that or anything.”

“Thanks. I grew up singing. I think my mom might have disowned me if I didn’t end up with a good voice.”

“Really?” 

Asher laughs again. “Wow, you are gullible or I am not as funny as I think I am. But no, my mom would not have disowned me if I didn’t have a good voice.”

It’s this moment that Rabbi Finkle steps out of her office and says, “Asher, don’t lie. No self respecting cantor could stand to have unmusical children, just like I couldn’t stand to have children who do anything but read torah all day.” She smiles at us both, light in her eyes.

“Isn’t your oldest an atheist?” I ask.

“Yes, but he still reads torah ever day.” She laughs.

--

“So how was it?” I ask, sliding in Caleb’s car. He smiles wide as he turns to face me.

“Peter was amazing. Obviously. There’s something just, sexy about watching a guy dance.” He pauses, sighing, and then says, “I’m really gay.”

I laugh. “Really? I had no idea!”

“Yeah, not like I told you for the first time when we were like, nine or something.”

“Oh yeah, that definitely never happened.” 

Caleb chuckles and drives off. 

I can vividly remember when Caleb came out, the emotions so strong they stay pressed in mind. I can remember his fear, his hesitation, as he told me in a small voice that he liked boys. I can remember the confusion, not understanding what he meant, not sure what that meant for me. I can remember the happiness and his smile when I said there was nothing wrong with him “like liking” boys. I remember the ache I felt, when after telling him I like boys too, he told me “girls are supposed to like boys.” That ache I didn’t understand, that ache I couldn’t place for years, that ache that would come when Caleb would refer to me as a girl. 

“Were you scared telling me?” I ask a few minutes later, even though I know the fundamental answer.

“Of course,” he says. “I was nine. I was gay. And you were my best friend. Why wouldn’t I be afraid?” 

I nod in agreement. It’s something that, of course, I can understand. Just the thought of it causes anxiety to crawl up skin, pulling tight at my throat. It stops me from saying the things I want to say, things I know I need to say. The things I can’t imagine ever actually telling him.

Like: I’m in love with you.

Like: I’m trans.

Like: Yes. That means I’m guy. Which, if you remember the I love you part, would make me gay too. Or bi. Not totally sure about that yet.

Like: Main point being, I want to be with you and date you and I know you probably don’t or won’t ever see me as anything but your girl best friend but maybe you could. 

Yeah. Probably a good thing I’m not saying any of that.

--

“...Honestly, the challah was so good and reminded me of mom’s that I had a breakdown. Standard stuff, ya know. Who doesn’t have breakdowns over delicious Jewish foods?”

“Are you even Jewish if you don’t have breakdowns over delicious Jewish food?” Asher counters.

Jordan Adam (Any Publicity Is Good Publicity)

Jordan is the no-nonsense, unflappable drummer of the punk band ION. ION is a duo: Jordan and his brother Asher. Jo is the younger brother, and therefore of course the taller and generally better. He's the type of musician who dresses like a normie, so when you see him roll up his sleeves and sit at the percussion set-up at the punk and metal show you know you're about to get your head blasted off. He doesn't talk a lot, but when he does it's to deliver the most devastating one-liner you've ever heard. He's dating the girl his brother made a childhood marriage pact with, and also her girlfriend.

When the police refuse to investigate the murder of her girlfriend Maddie, Jessica won't take no for an answer.

In Mortality - Holy War characters

Story time! Basically, I had an "invented" tmc au called Holy War, which was basically the idea of "what if Adam and Six sort of switched in various ways and a bunch of made up bitches are also in there?", that I never wrote down publicly because I wanted to fully flesh it out before I did that, but then the allegations and the drama and the problems happened, so like many others, I decided to not delete what I already had and instead rebrand it.

(My other former au, who is going to be called BirdsHeart once it comes out a separate story)

It took an awful long time to decide on the beat way to rebrand it, because I have a problem that most of the imaginary content I make up sort of "needs" to be based off of something already existing, or else, if it's fully originally created from the depths of my brain, I'll hate it and cringe and never actually use it.

So what was my solution? I grabbed two thirds of Holy War and slapped it in the past of my already existing In Mortality au for CDTA, and even though that was 3 months ago, I'm only talking about it now because it took a long while to figure out how to make everything work.

And I know I could have simply jumped to the point without going into that much detail, @missr3n3 was chill when I asked her about it, but still, I thought to compensante you guys in some form for the lack of previous context, hence the explanation above

Anyway, rebranded characters and info! 1990s-2000s -> 1780s-1800s Counties, Wisconsin -> Crystal County, Upper Peninsula of Michigan (Crystal = Iron county) Adam Murray -> Asher Appleford (he's a psycho, don't go near him)(Alice) "Lynn" Murray -> Alice "Linn" Sheppard (unaware mom) Adam's dad -> Abel Appleford (as psycho as his son) Jude Murray -> Jude (he's a loser) Jonah Marshall / Stanley -> Joanna Jonathan Rosethorne (trans friend!) Mervin Marshall -> Mason Rosethorne "Jimberly" Marshall -> Katherine Smith Rosethorne Evelyn Miller -> Eva Rosell-Wellson (Asher's 7th wife) Dave Lee -> Davidson "David" Swan (Hourglass bastard eldest son) Mark Heathcliff -> Marcus "Mark" Hourglass Sarah Heathcliff -> Sarrah Hourglass (tuff girlie) Cesar Torres -> [No one, he doesn't exist here] Ruth Weaver -> [Also doesn't exist] Thatcher Davis -> Tayler Dahvees (has a daughter and is Marcus' father-in-law) Mentality of Six - Originally called Four -> Aila (was previously just her fake human alias) Name of Six - Trevor Murray -> Trevor Atskin (he's a poltergeister who goes by "Seth") (Note: The character(s) with Six's appearance are not part of this au and have been saved to be used in a different one) [These two are just technically, because they were supposed to be Adam's weird twin creations to help him in the unleashing of the Apocalypse]

Joel Hayes -> Dashiell Sheppard Appleford Chloe -> Esthel Sheppard Appleford

[Additional characters for logic's sake and for funzies]

Madelyn ??? (Adam's grandma) -> Madelyn Atskin Owen Murray (Adam's grandpa) -> Owen Cheape

(Madelyn and Owen were originally the bio parents of Trevor and the adoptive parents of Airen Murray, Adam's dad in HW, and are now descendants of Susanna who are the bio parents of Trevor and his little brother Angelo, and the temporary caregivers of "Airen", who is Alice's husband as Abel doesn't want marriage)

"Steven Murray(?)" -> Steven Sheppard

(Originally just Adam's illegitimate cousin who was killed by him when trying to help one of his girlfriends run away, Steven is the bastard son of Alice's older sister, Maria Sheppard, and Jude. He has a wife, Lionel Pelmear, and they are the parents of Esthel and Dashiell who are later adopted by Asher and Eva following Steven's mysterious death and Lionel being sent to a far away convent as she had apparently "gone crazy")

"Paul Marshall(?)" -> Paul Rosethorne

(Jonathan's middle brother, followed by a younger brother named Michael, who dies tragically at only 13 while camping out with friends in the woods) Junia / "Five" -> Junia

(An orphan runaway accused "witch" who is the reason "Airen" (real name Iebc-ora) got from his 'mother' Aila to the Atskin family, instead of to the intended target, George Sheppard, Maria and Alice's older brother, though all of that was a huge unintended mess, and Junia is now dead and a poltergeister because of it)

(the dad) Norman Heathcliff -> Norman Christian David Hourglass

[Stillborn 3rd son] Morgan Heathcliff -> Morgan Hourglass

Juliana "Juno" Heathcliff -> Juliana "Juno" Fox Hourglass

[Davidson's mom] Catherine "Kate" Lee -> Catherine "Kate" Swan

(Tayler's kid and Marcus' wife) Julie Davis -> Julie Dahvees

(Julie's unmarried mom) Wendy Adams -> Abigail Wentz

[Marcus' divorced Catholic mother] - Elizabeth Anne "Nancy" Elizinsnaya (she is half Polish)

[Sarrah's and Morgan's dead mom] - Emma Underwood

[Juliana's dead mother] - Lucy Fox

[Norman's 4th wife] - Hannah Felwick

[Bisexual Sarrah's husbando] - Anthony Milton

I think this is enough info for now, once we get to the Holy War fic of In Mortality (yes the fic will have the same name cause I'm lazy, but it does have some meaning if I apply it correctly) obviously there's gonna be a whole lot more information

But if you guys want to ask some questions about these fuckers (affectionate), I don't mind!

Written for the @startrekwintergiftexchange for @apricot-ghost who asked for 'trans man Kirk'. Also found on AO3 with some notes at the end. (Apparently the receiver moved to @groovyghostie ?)

Words: 1951

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

There was something calming about the stars that he had never been able to puzzle out. They stood as a reminder outside of Shabbat that he could always find a light somewhere. He had needed that a lot while growing up, trying to figure himself out.

It had happened halfway through Starfleet Academy, almost concurrently with his stunt of 'cheating' at the Kobayashi Maru. He had asked advice from the stars, asked why he didn't feel as proud of his achievement as so many others were. (Though he had many detractors as well.) Something had just... clicked when people started using just his surname so everyone knew instantly who was being spoken about with fewer syllables.. The dropping of a name that he had never fully considered to be 'wrong' had put the last piece of the puzzle in place. The atmosphere and culture of Starfleet as science first before war meant many went by their first name or rank, not surname so it had been the first time he had heard just the four letter name so often around him.

He was not wrong, the name was. It wasn't him. The name he had become an adult with did not fit anymore (maybe it never fully had, he just didn't want to investigate while in the middle of his time in the academy though he had chances before then, too. Timing never seemed right).

And so, shortly before graduating, Cadet Kirk had a wholly different ceremony with his rabbi, a couple of his favorite instructors, family (brother, parents), and a handful of people he actually considered friends rather than hangers on to his celebrity.

Rachel Kirk became James Kirk, or James Tiberius Kirk on his officer commission papers. Tiberius came to him from his father's side, while James came down from both tradition and his maternal side.

Kirk was still binding at the time, having decided that despite surgery being rather simple and no longer requiring long recovery times, he would wait until after he graduated to have it.

So, when he had his bar mitzvah, to 'replace' the bat mitzvah he had had, he was still binding and the tallit helped in hiding the rest of what the binding missed.

"Baruch atah Adonai, Eloheinu Melech Ha'olam, asher kiddashnu b'mitzvotav vitzvanu b'shem mitzvah tzitzit v'mitzvat hityatzrut."

Blessed are you, Hashem, Ruler of the Universe, for giving the commandment for the sake of the mitzvah of ritual fringes and the mitzvah of self-formation.

It had taken a bit of research but he had found a prayer that worked for him as he bound his chest and obscured what the binding couldn't with his tallit.

He looked at the note he had made along with his speech. He let the words sink into him again: "G-d blessed me by making me transsexual for the same reason G-d made wheat but not bread and fruit but not wine, so that humanity might share in the act of creation."

He thoroughly believed in those words now (ancient words from over two centuries ago thus the words used being just as obsolete but no less truthful or accurate). When he had first heard them he hadn't quite understood what it meant. How could we create ourselves? Formation sure, but creation? Now, he knew. Every time he would bind, every time he thought of the surgery planned for after graduation. Every time he has to reintroduce himself he had a chance of creating a new connection not only to his fellow humans but with God.

And so, it was easy to accept many missions, including a five year mission, five years of missing the High Holy Days in a synagogue, replaced by the chapel on the ship. Faster than light travel did not mean people stopped believing in God (or multiple). Adonai was in space just as much as on Earth.

Judaism did not believe in proselytizing. And Kirk never considered it to be as such when talking about God being wherever the ship was.

He still needed hormones, and they still needed doctor approval, so the first order of business as soon as he got the crew list finished was to introduce himself to the Chief Medical Officer, one Doctor Leonard "Bones" McCoy. Where Kirk was Jewish, McCoy had grown up Southern Baptist before settling on 'theist' when Southern Baptist no longer felt right (learning the amount of bigotry that filled the walls of the church helped increase the feeling) and nor did any other denomination or non-Christian religion he had read up on.

"Good to meet you, Captain. I see on your files you are Jewish. Do you keep kosher?"

Kirk smiled a little at the friendly words and handshake. Then he shook his head in the negative.

"I do not, just Shabbat," Kirk admitted.

"Noted. My roommate at medical school didn't keep Shabbat, just kosher. Now, what else may I help you with, Captain?"

"You don't need to be so formal, Doctor. James is fine. Or Jim. And yes, I realize the irony." A pause to let McCoy nod in understanding. "As for what else I require of you besides counsel I know you are more than qualified to offer, I have a... medication concern..."

Leonard McCoy could not be accused of being a man who doesn't read up on his patients before setting off on a multi-year mission. He knew everything in the medical file of one James T. Kirk but he felt since the Captain was already halfway there to giving the answer to let him finish. 

"I'll need a number of hormone injections on the trip. I'm adept at giving them to myself, I just need a doctor's okay to fill it." 

"Easy like Sunday morning, Cap-- Jim," McCoy said with the half smile he had cultivated over the years. Kirk exhaled like he had been holding in the breath for minutes on end. He liked being self-sufficient but knew some doctors preferred being hands-on. He had a feeling he would get along fine with 'the old country doctor'.

After speaking to McCoy, Kirk wandered around the starbase for a time before he moved on to his next meeting with his new Chief of Engineering. They met at one of the two bars on the base before walking its corridors together.

"Your reputation well precedes you, Mr. Scott," Kirk admitted as the slightly older man (if one considered 11 years 'slightly') enumerated his other postings and all the emergencies he had to fix. 

"Oh, aye? Is the man who beat the Kobayashi Maru a fan of mine?" Montgomery "Scotty" Scott asked, a beaming smile on his face.

"Quite, Mr. Scott. If you hadn't been assigned to the Enterprise I would have asked for you."

Kirk noted the very tips of Scotty's ears had turned a bit pink. Kirk pretended not to notice, however. 

They passed the second bar on the Starbase then adjusted course, Scotty following Kirk's lead to wherever the younger man felt like going. Kirk noted Scotty's loping walk, as if he had just relearned how to walk. It was difficult to change your way of walking when your center of gravity shifted. 

"How about we get more properly drunk at the Hope Hotel?" Kirk offered. Only in privacy would he ask what he wanted to ask. Not only for Scotty's sake but his own. It was not required to come out of the closet and he didn't want to invite someone out of it when surrounded by so many strangers, regardless of what the surrounding opinion might be. Or the answer.

Scotty knew that wasn't its actual name and it made him chuckle before nodding. He had taken up residence in a lower deck of the base.

"Why, Cap'n, you sure know the right thing to offer a man of my character," Scotty answered, never having been one to turn down drink.

Laughing, Kirk clapped the solid Scotsman on the shoulder before leading the way to the hotel. 

It was there, in a rented room, that Kirk allowed himself the luxury of actually getting drunk. It was a rare occurrence, preferring to go about clear headed even off duty. Maybe especially when off duty. 

"I'll show you mine if you show me yours," Kirk said, scratching idly as his chest some three drinks into things. 

"I-- sorry?" Scotty asked, barely bleary eyed so it wasn't the drink confusing him.

Kirk laughed, mostly at himself. "Sorry that was a terrible way to ask what I want to."

Without bothering to verbally clarify any further, he stripped off the off-duty grey shirt he wore.

The keyhole procedure he had received after graduating meant the scarring was minimal around the areola and two little holes just below the armpits. One would be hard pressed to notice if they weren't even sure what they were meant to see. 

Scotty picked up on it however and he gave another broad grin. Once he finished what was in his glass, he stripped off his own shirt (which he rarely did outside of showering and going to bed, even exercising he tended to stay fully clothed as a personal preference). Scotty had opted for more traditional, light lines that were hard to make out through the natural curve of pectoral muscle. A moderate carpet of hair added further camouflage. Kirk was slightly less fuzzy around the chest, the fuzz picking up around the midriff. Scotty could certainly be considered a bear of a man, in the vernacular of their shared community and in general. Scotty was solid, one might use the term thick set, without being in danger of failing the Starfleet physical. Kirk was sure Scotty could give quite the bear hug if he wanted to. 

Kirk moved his gaze back to the other man's face after another second or two of appreciation that his new Chief of Engineering was part of the self made brotherhood.

It was one of the few things not on any records that weren't medical, there was no need. No one needed to know what a person had been born as. Only what they were now. So these kinds of reveals could happen at their discretion.

"D'ye always ask your new crew to disrobe, Cap'n?" Scotty teased, words muffled for a moment as he returned his shirt to its previous place. Kirk followed suit with his own shirt and laughed. 

"Not normally. I, uh, was just curious."

"What gave me away?" Scotty asked, turning slightly serious now. 

Kirk paused, head tilting slightly. 

"Your stance. How you walk. As if you're still afraid the binder is going to ride up if you move your top half too much."

Scotty digested this, nodding absently. He returned to the present and poured more hotel provided whisky for them both. Kirk gave a nod if thanks.

"Slàinte mhath!" Scotty intoned as he held his glass aloft, the two Gaelic words flowing lovingly from the man's tongue. 

Matching Scotty's earlier beaming grin, he held his own glass aloft and lightly tapped it to Scotty's. 

"L'chaim!" Kirk said just as full of warmth and loving emotion. Scotty's face again broke into another trademark grin. 

Cheers. 

Good health, good luck. (Or, more literally: to life!)

Kirk had a feeling the five year mission was going to fly right by considering the crew he had met so far. And that he would love every last millisecond of it. 

And Kirk would learn later that Spock was matrilineal Jewish. And a number of months into the tour that Hikaru Sulu, who would serve initially as Head of Astrosciences before moving to the Command track on the bridge to become the senior helmsman, was also a self-made man.

The questions I was talking about!! :3

Russ is pansexual, Jace is gay, Sera is lesbian, Kyre is bisexual, Lacy is demiaroace, Mateo is omnisexual, and Asher is asexual(not aromantic tho)

The only people of the Orphan Gang™️ who have siblings are Lacy and Asher, and they're twins

Russ loves spring, Jace loves winter, Sera likes fall, Kyre is apathetic to the seasons, Lacy likes summer, Mateo is also apathetic, and Asher loves spring and fall

They're all orphans. But yes, they all once had alive parents.

Russ is a trans male, Jace is a cis male, Sera is a trans female, Kyre is nonbinary, Lacy is a demigirl, Mateo is a cis male, and Asher is a demiguy.

Russ: Jul 8. Jace: Sep 9. Sera: Dec 27. Kyre: Nov 20. Lacy: Feb 17. Mateo: Apr: 27. Asher: Feb 17.

They're all kinda traditional fantasy-like, but Russ dresses more steampunk-ish.

R: mac n cheese. J: nothing. S: anything. K: bread. L: any food that Asher grew. M: meat(not like that). A: paper.

R: cuddles and hand-holding. J: anything R wants to do. S: baking together. K: Doing each other's hair. L: sparring together without any armor. M: things I can't say on this website/app. A: same as R.

R: one. J: one. S: one. K: one. L: none. M: one. A: one.

Technicaly there's only two nations but if they were irl, they'd be pocs. So, Asher, Lacy, and Russ are Clanae and everyone else is Celvin. But Kyre is African-American, Sera is Hispanic, and Mateo has a black mom and a white dad.

R speaks Clanae and Celvin, J speaks Celvin, S speaks Celvin, K speaks Celvin, L speaks Clanae and is learning Celvin, M understands Clanae but only speaks Celvin, and A knows both.

None of them have education like we do, but J was taught by M and A + L have Clanae education. They also don't have 'jobs' like us, but A is a farmer/harvester kinda and L is the general commander for the Clanae army.

they all like bread

they all like guitar/string music

I basically just came up with all their names but turns out all of them are either Greek or Hebrew or both.

not really, but Kyre, Asher, and Russ play games like tag a lot.

Lacy and Asher have the biggest family, with some cousins, aunts, uncles, etc. Everyone else was an only child and is now an orphan.

Asher and Lacy are very close.

Not sure. Most Clanae or Celvin probably don't, but I haven't thought abt this.

Asher and Russ are probably the most sad emotionally, Sera uses anger instead of sadness and she is very envious.

Jace loses his temper very quickly, Sera close behind. Everyone else is pretty chill.

Russ likes to bake with Sera and both Kyre and Asher do each other's hair and makeup a lot(and have sleepovers)

Russ used to have a pet bunny in the first few months of writing/planning CH but now he doesn't. Asher probably likes animals and farms them, but he has no personal pets.

Kyre loves kids, Lacy likes them, and Mateo DESPISES THEM. The rest either don't care or like them to a small degree.

I feel like Kyre and Sera would adopt, but no one else really wants kids.

Asher and Kyre cuddle 24/7 and Sera is fine with it. Russ and Jace did when they were in a more serious relationship, but it's complicated now.

Technically Asher and Lacy do but they're more like magic marks that appear once you've mastered Clanae Magic. Jace wants some. Mateo has a fire one somewhere on his body.

Not sure. Jace probably wants some, but doesn't have any currently.

Russ has a dark, muted magenta like color, J is blonde, S is ginger, K has very dark brown hair, Lacy and Asher have silver/platinum blonde hair, and Mateo has black hair with blue highlights.

Yes, they all have natural hair, other than Mateo's highlights.

uhhhh... idk what that is 😭 Asher would give it a try, though!

Mateo, Lacy, Jace, and Russ HATE glitter(cause of their 'jobs') and everyone else likes it well enough.

Mateo, Lacy, Asher, Russ, and Jace all have.

Russ had his eye ripped out, so I guess. Jace lived his entire life in fear he would lose it, so yes.

Russ did when he was younger and Lacy has broken some due to her excessive training.

Russ chills tf out, somehow. Jace becomes a lot less apathetic, Sera becomes clingy, Kyre and Asher are party animals, Lacy has never drunk enough to get more than slightly buzzed, and Mateo only gets drunk on bad nights.

Jace did, no one else though.

R: put on his goggles. J: get into his own bed and not R's. S: do her hair and skincare. K: groan "five more minutes" and end up staying for an hour. L: get on her uniform and work out, stretch, and sword train. M: do his hair and skincare. A: he doesn't sleep.

Kyre: hell yes. Mostly everyone else doesn't, but Mateo has a God complex so he thinks he's the best all the time.

R: he doesn't. Fruit juice only. J: herbal tea with no sugar. S: black coffee(to K's dismay). K: the longest Starbucks order you could think of(and still sound good). L: Iced tea. M: Normal coffee. Just the right amount of creamer, sugar, and coffee. A: anything with enough caffeine to kill a horse.

R: Metal. J: The forest right after a shower of rain. S: Your favorite dessert. K: old books. L: dirt, but the kind of dirt that has grass growing from it with a few flowers. M: fire/smoke. A: axe body spray(js a bit, he doesnt over do it.)

Lacy and Asher are, no one else is.

Jace has reading glasses, but he's to proud to admit it. Edit: Kyre and Mateo both have glasses, but Mateo's are reading.

Sera and Kyre are, and everyone kind of is.

The bullet points got weird bc I messed up

[arsenicpeppers]

I do not think I ever shared much about Asher and other characters she has interacted with. So here we go. Real briefly.

From left to right

Alabaster

Asher

Maxine

Muffy

Gertrude

Asher:

She's one of my main characters. Born in Germany to a wealthy family, however she never met her parents. So when Asher was young, her aunts took care of her before she got "adopted" by Alabaster's family. As she was growing up she was a model before leaving that career completely.

Maxine(AKA Max):

Born in Mexico, her family moved up to the Canadian prairies to start a big ranch. Maxine was taught how to be a farrier and overall caretaker of the horses and other critters around the farm.

Muffy (AKA Muffin):

She's Maxine's younger sister, Muffy loves school drama and reading magazines. You know, just girly things. She gets away with doing little around the farm, though she does help their mother around the house.

Gertrude:

A fellow 'co-worker' of Asher and Alabaster. She is of french descent and loves big fancy clothes. Gertrude also doesn't think it matters, she is trans. She is big on witch craft and will fuck up your day. (Or she would comfort/ heal you if you're friends).

Alabaster:

Not much to say aside from he's a POS. uhm. Anyway he was the only son of a well off family however just couldn't get enough of the fame and wealth. Alabaster was also in the modeling industry. He tends to be quite cocky about his roman ancestry.

I've got the utmost basic info out. I'll leave it at that then go more into depth on each later as well as stories and character relations.

Also as a side, when drawing some characters I forgot the story was to take place in the 80s however I went with their styles or more 70s look for Maxine. I think it fits but it's just funny that I specifically thought this all took place in the 70s at the time of drawing them..
