#Rjalker reads The Arts of Being

[rjalker]

AU where all the people who called their hotline learn what happened and storm the asylum and jail and rescue them and they get to get actual therapy and fight for equal rights together.

(Chromatists putting pride flags on their sides is the best thing ever)

(I seem to recall art somewhere with Bill with the aroace flag...? Might be remembering wrong)

@2d-dreams I love your story and characters. They're so cute.

[ID: A simple, lineless digital drawing of Pollux Codex, an original Flatland character, and Bill Cipher from Gravity Falls, sitting in a bench under a tree and smiling at the camera while saying, "Cheese!". Pollux is a blue hexagon with his left side, which we see on his right, darker blue and covered with scar tissue, with another scar on his lower side. He has a black bowtie, and holds a yellow cane in his right hand. The two of his sides on the right have been painted in the gay flag and the ace flag. The gay flag has stripes of dark green, seafoam, off-white, medium blue, and very dark blue. The ace flag is black, grey, white, and purple. Bill is a yellow equillateral triangle with darker scars on his lower half, concentrated on his right side, wearing a black bowtie and a tall tophat, holding a blue cane in his left hand, which we see on his right. His diagonal sides are painted with the gay, agender, and aroace flags. The araoce flag is orange, yellow, white, light blue, and dark blue, and is drawn upside down here. The agender flag is black, grey, white, light green, white, grey, and black. He has his eye closed while he smiles, and both he and Pollux are reaching out with their hands around the other while looking at the camera. Behind them is a large tree, and below them is green grass. The background is blank white. End ID.]

You should all go read The Arts of Being. You don't have to know anything about Gravity Falls except for the very ending. You can read Flatland here for free for context for that stuff.

They're adorable, your honor.

[accessible-flatland-art]

Pinned post.

[ID: The icon for this blog, which is a black right triangle on a brown square background, with text following the diagonal of the triangle, reading, "Let irregulars enjoy fandom too.". End ID.]

Please copy and paste the image description I write into the original post for your art, rather than simply reblogging it from me. (You can also reblog it too, if you want, thought!). Plain text (what you're reading right now) is more accessbile than ALT text because tumblr is a glitched mess.

The image description should go directly below the image being described, above comments, and stay in normal sized, black text, without italics, bold, or colors. It may be indented (like above) to make it easier to distinguish from the rest of the text in the post. This is in fact more accessible.

This blog is run by @rjalker so it's easier to keep track of which Flatland art has an ID already, and so people have an easy place to find it all.

Anyone can reblog from this blog, even if I have you blocked on my main. I block people sometimes just to filter posts and then forget to unblock...RIP

Please note: I cannot describe posts with eyeburningly neon colors, flashing lights, or audio that is difficult to hear or very fast paced.

If you list your OCs names, pronouns, and shapes in the post itself, it will make it much easier for me to describe.

Posts on the blog so far: 404 Posts still in the drafts: 1,022

Blog created on September 18th, 2023 Numbers last updated: September 7 2024

(The drafts consist of all of the undescribed Flatland art, and art that is described but I still have to tag, that I could find in the whole tag going back to January 2022, at which point tumblr started giving me random unrelated posts instead. Not sure if it ran out of Flatland posts, or just stops actually keeping track of tagged posts after a year...?)

Here is a link to a post with many places to read, watch, and listen to Flatland, all for free, because the book is public domain.

Very important note:

Very important edit: Ladd Ehlinger, the creator of the 2007 film that’s free on youtube, is an extremely racist and misogynistic conservative. He made a political ad so blatantly racist and sexist that youtube has literally resstricted it, so that you can’t share the link outside the site. Simply google his name and you will see dozens upon dozens of articles about how bigoted he is.

Please be aware of what kind of person made that movie when you watch it. His bigotry is baked into the movie, and is why he refused to actually do anything with the original political commentary from the book.

You are not a bad person if you already watched the movie and enjoyed it, but you do need to be aware of what kind of person made it and how that affected the movie, and make sure others are warned. He is also here on tumblr with the username filmladd. I highly recommend blocking him.

___

The tagging system for this blog is under the cut so this post doesn't get too long. More tags will be added as I find more art to reblog.

The tags in use so far, which I have saved to a notepad so I can just copy and paste them as needed.

Some tags are newer, so might not show up on all art! Let me know if there's any that should be added to specific posts, or if there's any tags you want to see to be able to search for!

_

please copy and paste into the original post for accessability no credit needed! It should go directly below the image and stay in regular#text without color italics or bold though you can make it indented like I have it here! Image descriptions are like subtitles for blind ppl

[murderbotwritingprompts]

Pined post, this will be updated whenever necessary.

Last update: January 25th 2023.

This blog is run by @rjalker My pronouns are it/its.

Rules and other info are below the cut! Read this post before submitting a prompt :)

= = = =

Along with submitting prompts, if you tag me in art, as long as it doesn't violate the rules, I'll reblog it here! Art of Murderbot will be tagged "Murderbotart"

Submission rules, in no real order

0)) if you think shipping incest or pedophilia is okay, leave, now. Your actions are disgusting and you are not welcome here. This includes between adopted family members.

1)) I highly recommend you type out your prompts in an LibreOffice document or similar word program before submitting it, in case tumblr crashes while you're on the submission page, or if I delete it by accident while trying to post it.

2)) If you submit a prompt here, you can of course also post it to your own blog. You can also post it to your blog, and then @ me to reblog it here.

3)) If you want to submit a prompt anonymously, you can submit it like normal, and note at the top that you want it to be anonymous. I'll copy and paste it into a new post. (You used to be able to open tumblr in a private browser and submit anonymously that way, but I think they've made it so you have to be logged in now in 2024...who knows when that'll change again though.)

4)) Include a name for your prompt when you submit it! This will make it easier to find them later. It can be a simple descriptive name like "Murderbot gets lost in the mall" or something.

5))Please include proper paragraph breaks. I have to be able to read your prompt before it can b published. Not including paragraph breaks will make this take three times as long.

6)) I will be editing prompts submitted, usually to help clarify confusing language or to add paragraph breaks if the submitter doesn't add them in themselves.

7)) If you aren't okay with your prompt being edited before it gets posted, post it to your own blog instead, and then @ me to reblog it.

If a prompt violates the rules in an easily fixable way, I'll edit the prompt to follow the rules.

If a prompt violates the rules in a way that can't be fixed, it'll just be scrapped, and I'll post an explanation of what it did wrong and how to fix it in the future, without naming names.

Unless you're purposefully being malicious, in which case you'll just get blocked and I will warn other people to block you for their own safety.

8)) No shipping Murderbot with anyone, in any way, unless it canonically starts a relationship with someone in the books. It's not anymore okay to erase canon Queer representation when it's representing nonpartnering, everything-repulsed aroace people than if it were representing anyone else.

If Murderbot were canonically an allo lesbian, and you wouldn't want people to erase that, then don't erase that it's aroace and doesn't want any kind of relationship.

9)) No erasing Murderbot's solitaremity, which is a form of touch aversion where not only do you not enjoy touch, you also do not crave it or get "touch starved". Unless Murderbot in the books canonically starts explicitly seeking out and enjoying touch for the pure joy of it, then you need to respect that it is solitaremit. Real solitaremit people exist, and we deserve to see ourselves represented in fiction too.

Touch aversion is a disability, and it's no more okay to magically cure it or sweep it under the rug than it would be to cure Murderbot's very clear autism.

10)) No whitewashing characters OR assuming white people are the default. Just because someone's skin tone isn't described doesn't mean they're white. If you think it does, you're just racist. The only characters you can depict as white on this blog are those who are clearly described as white, like the GrayCris Agent from book 4.

He is in fact literally the only example of a clearly white character in this series so far.

I know, because I was keeping track the first, second, third, and fourth time I've read this series. This, like many things, is an established pattern in Martha Wells' writing.

It is extremely intentional that the only blatantly white character in this series so far is the capitalist pig who is holding a Black woman hostage.

I promise you it won't kill you to draw or describe people of color. You will not be harmed by fighting against the "white people are the default" that is in your head.

11)) No NSFW even if it doesn't involve Murderbot. There are kids in this fandom, I want them to feel welcome here, and I don't wan to see it either. Post it to your own blog and tag it appropriately.

12)) No super graphic or gratuitous violence. It's okay to go beyond what's described in the books (or, I should say, not described at all), but don't be excessive about it.

13)) Original characters are more than welcome!

14)) All human AUs will not be allowed. Murderbot does not want to be human. Turning it into a human anyways is just insulting.

15)) Other AUs that likewise remove Murderbot's constructed status to make it wholly organic will also be dismissed. That's just lazy and uncreative.

16)) No prompts revolving around Christian holidays. I'm tired of it, and you can't convince me any of the main characters are Christian. You just can't. Post it to your own blog.

17)) No misgendering Murderbot unless it's to show that the character / entity misgendering it is a bad person.

Example: A random jackass misgendering Murderbot is fine, as long as it's properly portrayed as that person being a jackass. (Yes, even if it's written from the jackass's POV and they think they're a good person. It's very easy to show that the narrator is not correct even when they think they are).

You writing a whole prompt and referring to Murderbot with they/them, he/him, or she/her pronouns is misgendering and not allowed. If you do this, it will be corrected the first time. If you do it multiple times, you will just be blocked. You get once chance, and that's it.

18)) No headcannoning Murderbot as being binary trans. Why do I even have to say this. Go somewhere else if you hate nonbinary people that much.

= = = = =

Prompts can be as long as you want, but should be at least a good sized paragraph at minimum, not just a single sentence or two.

= = = = =

You can submit art as a prompt or for a prompt, as long as it follows the rules above and:

A)) Murderbot's face must not be shown (it puts in a lot of effort to hide its face as often as possible, we should respect that!). Get creative with it. There are a lot of fun ways to accomplish this.

B)) Murderbot must not be whitewashed or light-washed.

Its skin color in the official art is very dark brown, with black hair.

The image below shows the shade of its skin tone taken from official art. The background color, and the box in the middle, are the main shade, and then it is shown being affected by light and shadow.

Lighting can be more dramatic or stylized with different colors, but the brightest lighting in the world isn't going to turn a black or brown person white or pink. Do not desaturate its skin either to make it grey.

Look up tutorials on how to properly draw dark skin if you need to, there are many that people kindly make for free here on tumblr.

[ID: A simple digital drawing of a hand, with a small pale orange sun next to it as a source of light. The art has a border of light orange in the same shade as the little sun, with black outlines, and the background is dark brown.

Five rectangular boxes are at the top of the screen, showing a simple gradient from warm brown to darker brown, with the the middle box the baseline, which is also the background color. The furthest left box is the lightest, the furthest right is the darkest.

The shades are placed on the simple drawing of the hand, with the brightest color used to highlight the part closest to the little sun, with the second brightest forming a larger part of the lighting, then the baseline, with the darkest color on the opposite side of the arm and fingers that are in shade, with the softer shading taking up most of the shadowed parts.

End ID.]

C)) Murderbot cannot be drawn stick thin and skinny. It's literally designed to be physically powerful and kill people and things. It is not skinny.

D)) Try to include an image description for your art whenever possible. If you do not include one, I will have to create one before it is published, so it will take longer to publish, depending on how complicated the image is.

Memes will be allowed, as long as they don't violate any of the other rules.

As long as your fics follow all the rules, you can also submit full fics here for people to read, as long as each chapter individually isn't too long to fit in a single post. Say whether or not it's okay for people to use your fics as writing prompts.

= = = = =

All prompts will be tagged:

Murderbotwritingprompts

Murderbot writing prompts

TMBD writing prompts

The Murderbot Diaries

if you want to filter them.

"blogrunner prompt" will indicate prompts created by me

"submitted prompt" will indicate prompts submitted by others

You may request specific tags to be added to your own prompts, like if you're going to be submitting a series of prompts set in the same "universe".

To maybe help keep things ordered, Each prompt will also be given a number in the order it was submitted, no matter who created it, and tagged with that number as "prompt1" "prompt2" ect.

Will this actually help anyone find prompts later? I don't know, I guess we'll see...

= = = =

Some common terms and their definitions:

Transmisia

Transmisia is indeed ""transphobia" but minus the "-phobia" suffix, because hating trans people isn't an anxiety disorder like phobias are, and people who do have phobias get treated horribly because people think it means they're bigots when they're not.

The -misia suffix comes from the word "misos" for "hatred", which is also where the word misogyny comes from! Miso-hatred, gyn-women. Misogyny = hatred of women.

_____

Athiktomisia (link to coining post)

Athiktomisia is bigotry towards people who are touch averse, with athikto translating to, roughly, untouchable or thereabouts,and the -misia suffix like above indicating hatred. Athikto+misia = hatred of those who are untouchable.

_____

Solitaremit, soliteremity, etcetera (link to coining post)

Solitaremit is a specific form of touch aversion where the person is touch averse, and also does not get ""touch starved"" or have any desire for touch at all, specifically created because many touch averse people who do not get touch starved were being alienated even in touch averse spaces, because desiring touch and being touch starved was still behind held up as normal and universal.

Solitaremity is...uh, the state of being solitaremit. Example sentence: Most people, even those who are otherwise touch averse, don't even know that solitaremity exists.

Solitaremity was created specifically to be a unique word that is brand new, and thus (meant to be) easy to search for and find, combining the words "solitary" and "hermit" for maximum emphasis.

_____

Solitaremisia

Solitaremisia is, again, the -misia suffix, combined with solitaremit to specify hatred against people who are touch averse who specifically do not desire touch in any way, even with touch starvation. Which is unfortunately a common attitude even in other touch averse people :|

_____

Gregariable

Gregariable will probably be used at some point, it was created as the counterpart to solitaremit, it means someone who desires touch and gets touch starved, whether or not they're also touch-averse. Aka, 99.99% of people are gregariable. It combines the words "gregarious" and "sociable" to create a unique word so that it would be easy to search for.

_____

Aroacemisia

Aroacemisia is bigotry against aroace people in particular, again with the -misia suffix to indicate hatred.

Amisia, acemisia, and aromisia are hatred towards aspec people in general, hatred towards asexual people, and hatred towards aro people.

_____

Exorsexism

Exorsexism is the specific hatred of nonbinary and genderqueer people, which is separate from, but sometimes a part of, transmisia.

Murderbot is nonbinary, so any transmisia it faces is inherently exorsexist.

_____

It its antagonism

it its antagonism refers to hatred targeted specifically at people who use it/its pronouns, usually always combined with exorsexism. It its antagonism is a form of neopronomisia.

_____

Neopronomisia

Neopronomisia is hatred of pronouns other than she/her or he/him. This includes but is not limited to pronouns like it/its, te/ter, and they/them.

[custom-pronoun-pins]

[ID: Ten circular images of a baby snapping turtle covered in mud looking sideways across the camera, with one eye towards the camera, and a paved road behind it. The way the turtle's mouth is shaped make sit look like it is smiling.

Each image reads in bold black font, "I use blank pronouns. Isn't that cool? I think it's cool.", with the blank replaced with a different set of pronouns each time.

The pronoun sets are, in order:

"it/its", "ae/aer",

"ne/rix", "xey/xem",

"ze/hir", "he/him",

"vey/vem", "they/them",

"ix/ixs", and "she/her".

End ID.]

I took this picture of a baby snapping turtle, and it reminded me of the cute "kid doge" memes, so I decided to make this design :) I think it's cute :)

some versions (people use them differently, and of course you can customize them to suit you) of full sets for these pronouns are:

it/it/its/itself

ae/aer/aers/aerself

ne/rix/riv/rixelf

xey/xem/xeir/xemself

ze/hir/hirs/hirself

he/him/his/himself

vey/vem/vir/vemself

they/them/their/themself

ix/ix/ixs/ixself

she/her/hers/herself

These can be saved to your computer/phone/ect and used for icons, headers, moodboards, ect! You can also edit them as long as you aren’t being hateful! If you’d like to make your own, I have templates you can use on @rjalkers-pride-flag-templates

———————–

Designs are no longer available on Redbubble as of April 2023, as they’ve started actively stealing money from artists. Sorry for the inconvenience. You are, as always, encouraged to save these designs to use as icons or in other art, and you are encouraged to print them out and make your own shirts or buttons if you’re able to.

[mlwritingprompts]

Submitted prompt: The Being Born From Miraculous Fusion.

I added art :)

And I know it says this prompt was submitted by me (Rjalker) but that’s a glitch tumblr keeps doing whenever I edit the submissions to add a read-more…

Kwamibuster AU in which using multiple Miraculous is NOT casually handwaved, and it has unexpected consequences.

-

When Marinette wore many Miraculous the first time, she felt that the slight dizziness she had was worth the risk for the sake of executing her plan to save the city and the akumatised victim.

When her plan succeeded and she returned the Miraculous, after doing more Miraculous fusions, there was no side-effects she could feel, and ultimately, she and Fu shrugged at that.

If using multiple Miraculous had not harmed her, then maybe there is no huge threat from that, most likely. Maybe it was a myth.

Little did they know that somewhere close to the building the Akuma was fought, a sphere of colors was being materialized, growing, until it became large enough to fit a human.

The sphere, ever-changing in color, moved, as if sentient, as if it was searching for a safe place to hide in.

It found a good place inside an abandoned house, and stayed there.

-

Days passed, and weeks later, the sphere started cracking, like an egg.

A sound of shattering erupted, and what looked like a clawed tiger’s arm extended out of the crack.

A few more cracks later, an entire half of the sphere was broken, as the being now shown itself.

A figure looking like a mix of many animals, having multiple parts of their bodies.

A cat’s tail, a snake’s eyes, a fox’s whiskers, a monkey’s face, ears of a mouse, a chicken’s beak, a hide made of what seemed like a mystical dragon’s scales, and a huge set of ladybug’s wings on it’s back.

[ID: A digital drawing of the being described above, shown crouching against a white background, drawn from the side.

It has a chicken’s beak at the end of a red fox’s muzzle, a brown and tan monkey’s face with lighter grey mouse ears, and two small grey goats horn’s. There is a ladybug’s shell on its back, its front legs are those of a tiger, it has a dark red belly, and the hind legs are those of a brown rabbit. It has a long black tail of a cat, and a shorter brown tail of an ox. 

End ID.]

The being looked around, realising it was alone, with barely any memory except of what it was:

A being born from the excess energy created by Marinette, using fusions multiple times in a row, and using more than a dozen Miraculous at the same time.

Normally, the energy made from fusion will be too little to do any real effect, and will just dissipate into the world, but this wasn’t the norm.

Fusing Miraculous many times in a short period caused the energy to exceed the limit of what can be naturally fixed, and the energy became denser, absorbing a tiny amount  of the power around, creating the previously colorful sphere.

And now, creating a sentient being as well.

“Ma… Ri… Ne… Tte…”

With an unearthly voice, it spoke, as an image of a gentle blue-haired figure appeared in it’s mind, one of the things it caused the being to spread it’s wings, and flying in the sky, as instincts guided it.

And it moved, taking a straight direction towards what it felt to be this “Marinette’s” home.

“Mari… Nette… My… Family…”

—–

So, this is it. Kinda inspired by the “cosmic error” prompt.

By the way, Rjalker, I am genuinely curious, so sorry for inconvenience, but can you tell me if you might write this “the unnamed entity” idea of yours? And thank you.

I don’t plan on writing anything more for that prompt, sorry! But anyone who wants to can feel free! :)

[walks-the-ages]

I think you of all people should find out about this post from the ultimate Adrien simp.

https://plaggandadrienbondingisthebest.tumblr.com/post/664132552382169088/i-dont-appreciate-being-accused-of-wanting

Yep, there they are! I already removed their gross "review" on my fic lol, but the one they left saying "Rjalker, sweet summer bastard!" And "Adrien is doing the right thing" Is still there to show their style lol.

They really enjoy ignoring the fact that me and Rjalker are not only two seperate people and two seperate accounts but also that we have totally different writing styles on our fics lol, they've already left "reviews" on Rjalker's fics on ff.net, then they turn around and leave that crap on my fics. It's not subtle, no matter how much they want to play the victim card.

Especially when they openly requested fetish art of characters that are minors and now want to cry about being called out for it.

The "review" in question is under a cut for rape, and please do not read if you suffer from delusional parasitosis.

Keep yourselves safe and don't click the read more, and block Plaggandadrienbondingisthebest !

[draconicslime]

I was wondering if you'd be willing to explain or link to an explanation of how to make Image ID's/Descriptions on the internet? I've seen it formatted a billion different ways and I'm not exactly sure what to pick out as important information to highlight in the description so it's been hard to learn by just seeing other people's ID's

It's totally cool if not! I've just been trying to learn about it for a week or so now and finding info on Google or explanations on tumblr hasn't been very helpful so I thought it might help to ask someone who does it for all the images on their page

@rjalker i think you have an explanation on how to make image descriptions on another blog? i couldn’t find it, would you mind linking it?

i’m not the best at explaining things, but i can give a few tips and stuff. As a general rule, image descriptions should be pretty straight to the point, but not without detail. Art especially should have enough detail to carry across an adequate description of what’s being depicted.

If describing someone’s comment, post, or tags, remember to only describe what’s relevant. Icon descriptions, for example, are often best to be avoided unless it’s relevant and necessary.

It’s also a good idea to avoid censoring things that remain uncensored in the orginal text.

Some people use image descriptions as a visual aid in more ways than one- if they can see the picture, but have trouble comphrending it, an image description can help. So they should be easy to read (spacing out separate parts helps with this) and not in tiny text.

I would add its best not to put them under a cut because hyperlinks can break and someone shouldn’t need to navigate through a link to someone’s blog to see the picture. If an image description is very long, it can be filtered out of the way with a #long post tag instead.

Werewolf descending from its dimension to shame 3D+ shapekind

[ID: A digital drawing of a blue Flatland style hexagonn with repeating question and exclamation marks in front of him, being cast in multiple shadows from things above him off screen, with giant yellow subtitled text overshadowing most of the image from someone shouting above him, reading, "What part of 'do not poke internal organs' did you not undersand???". End ID.]

the higher dimensional beings have given them legs

[ID: A digital drawing showing a blue hexagon with a black crack on his top, and a yellow triangle, standing horizontally on a grey surface, with a black sky filled with stars behind them. They each have an eye on their forward-most point, and are looking at eachother. The triangle has two black cartoon legs, and the hexagon has four, with the leg closest to his scar shaking with weakness. End ID.]

Failed step one! Failed step one!

[ID: A digital drawing showing someone from above the camera view saying in yellow and black subtitles, "That sign won't stop me, I can't read!". Below is black text floating in the air facing upward that reads, "Warning: Do not poke internal organs!" Below, covered by the shadow of the floating sign and the speaker off screen, is a hexagonal Flatlander with purple insides and a blue exoskeleton, looking towards the left side of the image, unaware of what is happening above him. End ID.]

Except for the Gravity Falls things at the end that I have no context for (which I'm fine with, lol) The Arts of Being is like, the perfect continuation of Flatland. World building. Queer characters. Disabled characters. Cute relationships. Drama. Cosmic horror. Don't actually hace to know anything about Gravity Falls except for the very end. Getting to see what their daily lives are like. Absolutely fantastic. A++++ I'd watch it as a movie and pay for it if it were a published book.

1000/10 highly recommend.

Now I gotta read Flatterland

Michael punting Michael into the sun

[ID: Four edited screenshots from the show The Good Place, originally showing Michael the demon kicking a dog into the sun, now with the dog replaced with a Flatlander in the shape of a pentagon, with his insides color-coded different colors. In panel 1, the pentagon is sitting on a brick road while Michael's black-clad legs approach, one foot back in preparation for a kick. In panel 2, we look down from the sky as the pentagon flies towards the camera, motion blurred with speed, with Michael the demon in the background on the ground, arms thrown wide as he cheers. In panel 3, we see the pentagon as a small, blurry silowet in front of the sun. In panel 4, we are behind Michael the demon's head as a yellow flare erupts from the sun where the pentagon hit it.

[ID: An MS Paint drawing of a blue hexagon and a yellow equal-sided triangle. End ID.]

more scenes from The Arts of Being I forgot to post

Ominous Meddlers

[ID: A digital drawing against a white background of a blue hexagon and a yellow equal-sided triangle, with two shadows overlaid on the floor around them. The triangle is pointed at the hexagon, who has a grey metal brace around all but two of his sides. One of the shadows is darker and closer to the shapes, the other is lighter and further away. End ID.]

Revelations

[ID: The same triangle and hexagon, with the hexagon now with a large black scar on his side almost to his center. They are both facing a sphere seen from above, with a gradient from yellow on the top and green around the center seen. Above all three of them is another unseen shape casting a shadow. End ID.]

[ID: the meme of someone studiously taking notes in a large notebook with their glasses on the edge of their nose. End Id.]

The Line gave him a relieved glowing eye. "Oh, thank Provie you're here! Another minute and I would've stung him!" The pentagon squeaked, and at that Marianne added "For legal reasons, that was a joke."

Well if I were there it wouldn't be :)
