#HI ANON!!!

[undertheopensky]

Hi, I know you’re a four focused blog but I was wondering if you have anything you’d be willing to share about your whump legend fic “if you don’t have anything nice to say” 👉👈 I love this kind of take on legend, it’s so good!!! Love your four and colours writing, too. The way you characterize everyone is really consistent I love it!!!!

Aww, that's so nice! Thank you, anon!

It might please you to know there's a second part of that coming out soon! I've got one fill left to finish that might hold things up, so just for you, here's some of the unspoken backstory of 'If You Can't Say Anything Nice':

Legend's always struggled with communication. People never seem to understand what he means, and it feels like they don't listen. He got in trouble a lot for yelling when he was little, or for being mean when he wasn't trying to be. And if he was gonna get yelled at for it anyway, he figured, he might as well deserve it. In his early teens he had a period where he was deliberately rude and mean to people - but he decided he didn't like how it made him feel, so he stopped. (This may or may not have happened around Koholint, when he realised he still wanted certain people to like him.)

People still never really got him, though, which was frustrating - so he stopped caring so much what other people thought. Stopped reaching out. He would always help, of course - but it was impersonal. 'Kill these monsters', 'find this stolen item', 'turn the princess back from being a painting', that kinda thing. Until he met the Chain, and they mostly got along, and they even seemed to halfway understand him -

Before he knows it his guard is down, and he loves them, and he wants to help, and he starts tentatively reaching out again.

I saw your nickname lately on a thread about artists and that reminded me I’ve been following you for a while. I came here since that because I think it’s fair let you know that you rented an entire apartment in my head (living rent free but in a good way, promisse). I think about you and the things you produce very often, and you were very sweet everytime I came up to talk to you. Just… I’m glad to see you around again ;)

Bats are pretty tiny and there are some moths that can be as large as a small bird (saw one on my way to class once; it was neat), so it checks out that your friend thought it was a moth.

ahh omg!! i love small bats. however this thing was giant like the size of a bird for sure and like swooping down from the ceiling multiple times super loudly 😭 we were like 15 and kept screaming for my parents and they did not come to the rescue ("we thought u guys were just being rambunctious" they said to the sounds of terrified screams) (: i wish it had been small tho

Rowling isn't denying holocaust. She just pointed out that burning of transgender health books is a lie as that form of cosmetic surgery didn't exist. But of course you knew that already, didn't you?

I was thinking I'd probably see one of you! You're wrong :) Let's review the history a bit, shall we?

In this case, what we're talking about is the Institut für Sexualwissenschaft, or in English, The Institute of Sexology. This Institute was founded and headed by a gay Jewish sexologist named Magnus Hirschfeld. It was founded in July of 1919 as the first sexology research clinic in the world, and was run as a private, non-profit clinic. Hirschfeld and the researchers who worked there would give out consultations, medical advice, and even treatments for free to their poorer clientele, as well as give thousands of lectures and build a unique library full of books on gender, sexuality, and eroticism. Of course, being a gay man, Hirschfeld focused a lot on the gay community and proving that homosexuality was natural and could not be "cured".

Hirschfeld was unique in his time because he believed that nobody's gender was either one or the other. Rather, he contended that everyone is a mixture of both male and female, with every individual having their own unique mix of traits.

This leads into the Institute's work with transgender patients. Hirschfeld was actually the one to coin the term "transsexual" in 1923, though this word didn't become popular phrasing until 30 years later when Harry Benjamin began expanding his research (I'll just be shortening it to trans for this brief overview.) For the Institute, their revolutionary work with gay men eventually began to attract other members of the LGBTA+, including of course trans people.

Contrary to what Anon says, sex reassignment surgery was first tested in 1912. It'd already being used on humans throughout Europe during the 1920's by the time a doctor at the Institute named Ludwig Levy-Lenz began performing it on patients in 1931. Hirschfeld was at first opposed, but he came around quickly because it lowered the rate of suicide among their trans patients. Not only was reassignment performed at the Institute, but both facial feminization and facial masculization surgery were also done.

The Institute employed some of these patients, gave them therapy to help with other issues, even gave some of the mentioned surgeries for free to this who could not afford it! They spoke out on their behalf to the public, even getting Berlin police to help them create "transvestite passes" to allow people to dress however they wanted without the threat of being arrested. They worked together to fight the law, including trying to strike down Paragraph 175, which made it illegal to be homosexual. The picture below is from their holiday party, Magnus Hirschfeld being the gentleman on the right with the fabulous mustache. Many of the other people in this photo are transgender.

On the right side, an older gentleman in glasses- Magnus Hirschfeld- is sitting. He has short hair and a bushy mustache. He is resting one hand on the shoulder of the person in front of him. His other hand is being held by a person to his left. Another person to his right is holding his shoulder.]

There was always push back against the Institute, especially from conservatives who saw all of this as a bad thing. But conservatism can't stop progress without destroying it. They weren't willing to go that far for a good while. It all ended in March of 1933, when a new Chancellor was elected. The Nazis did not like homosexuals for several reasons. Chief among them, we break the boundaries of "normal" society. Shortly after the election, on May 6th, the book burnings began. The Jewish, gay, and obviously liberal Magnus Hirschfeld and his library of boundary-breaking literature was one of the very first targets. Thankfully, Hirschfeld was spared by virtue of being in Paris at the time (he would die in 1935, before the Nazis were able to invade France). His library wasn't so lucky.

This famous picture of the book burnings was taken after the Institute of Sexology had been raided. That's their books. Literature on so much about sexuality, eroticism, and gender, yes including their new work on trans people. This is the trans community's Alexandria. We're incredibly lucky that enough of it survived for Harry Benjamin and everyone who came after him was able to build on the Institute's work.

[Image ID: A black and white photo of the May Nazi book burning of the Institute of Sexology's library. A soldier, back facing the camera, is throwing a stack of books into the fire. In the background of the right side, a crowd is watching.]

As the Holocaust went on, the homosexuals of Germany became a targeted group. This did include transgender people, no matter what you say. To deny this reality is Holocaust denial. JK Rowling and everyone else who tries to pretend like this isn't reality is participating in that evil. You're agreeing with the Nazis.

But of course, you knew that already, didn't you?

Edit: Added image IDs. I apologize to those using screen readers for forgetting them. Please reblog this version instead.

BITES YOU /aff /pos

*squeaks, surprised*

Hey what was that for?

[undertheopensky]

How do you send those Easter eggs to people?

Well first the person you're sending to has to have their ask box open! And they *also* have to have images permitted in asks, not everyone does due to some people being Unfortunately Too Creepy For Society.

If both these prerequisites are met then you just open up an ask and click the red 'attach a photo' icon in the top right corner, then 'upload image' on the left and select your chosen egg, include a holiday message, then send!
