Etching the phrase "little detours" into. something..

[punkeropercyjackson]

Literally is impossible to be a Katara stan in pro Zutara anti Kataang content for me-it's all reliant on making Aang way worse so Katara can face the brunt of it on top of all the shit Zuko put her through in canon AND it only exists to make him look better with only her dealing with the consequences.Nah girl nah,imma stick to whatever does Katara justice and since Kataang accomplished it with it's canon writing,that's why it's my perfered ship for her and why i also headcanon her as bi so i can ship her with every girl her age and as trans since got that autistic tgirl swag AND am a punk Katara supremacist since she fills out every punk culture requirement and deserves the punk drip too and to participate in the fun parts of our subculture in addition to the political ones.Zutara's not 'for the girls',KATARA is for the girls and she ain't nothin' of Zuko's except his little sister figure and i SEE them 'Katara deserved better' tagged posts Zutradras be doing tryna drag Aang as their ship despite no mentions of in the actual posts,which says a LOT 'bout how y'all can't seperate my poor daughter from that fuckass comphet ship.The sea does not like to be restrained,she's her own moonglow in the darkness,she was a teenage anarchist,she's a girls girl in the feminist way and the gay way,she's og weirdgirl rep,she is thee moment,SHE IS MASTER KATARA OF THE SOUTHERN WATER TRIBE,NOT NO MAN'S!!!!!!!

trans zukka ramble

watched more avatar with my best friend and also started SU (expect me ranting abt how much I love that show sometime, my favorite characters are peri (for the feral autistic aroace rep) and ruby (for the unhinged adhd hopeless romantic rep) both of which represent me deeply) BUT that isn't what this post is about I'm talking abt zukka today!

Okay so. Transmasc zukka. Hear me out. We already know that zuko is transmasculine right? He's got the tboy emo energy, the shitty first haircut and then shaves it and it grows out cute and fluffy, and he just has the right vibes. Plus his dad sucks and his clearly transmasculine uncle (iroh IS an elder trans man fight me) is very protective of him. His journey of self acceptance and growth just seems very gender-y to me, like he has to evolve past what his father has taught him about himself and the world and accept his true nature (in the show his true nature is good rather than evil, but that translates decently well). He's also. Literally just autistic. I don't need to explain this, he's autistic the way peridot is, like it's so fucking obvious that it's hard to believe it could have been unintentional (I straight up do not buy that peridot wasn't intended to be autistic, with zuko I can maybe let it slide but I don't want to).

Now for the part that I'm excited about!! So we know that Sokka has his misogyny arc, which a lot of people would assume rules out trans sokka pretty entirely unless you want to change that, but I honestly think it makes a lot of sense. He always wanted to emulate his father and the warriors in his tribe, and his only reference for masculinity was that type of warrior energy, so he assumes the two are inextricably linked- you have to be a man to be a warrior and a warrior to be a man. This is also why he's obsessed with protecting his family and being 'the man of the village' basically. He thinks that that's what makes him masculine. His desperation to prove his masculinity to himself and others is what ends up driving him down the path of Being An Asshole To Women, and suki's arc with him is still about how femininity can be strong and powerful, and how feminity and masculinity can coexist, and nothing 'makes' him a man except for him being one. Idk I like it a lot

ROUND 5 MATCH 5: RAZ VS. CECIL

Razputin Aquato from Psychonauts 2 faces Cecil Palmer from Welcome to Night Vale. Who do you like more?

Raz Propaganda:

"autism"

"I'm literally trans and stole this man's name that's enough propaganda in my opinion"

"vote raz NOW he's my special little son who's suffered more than jesus he is literally autistic and transgender."

"RAZ MY BEAUTIFUL LITTLE PSYCHIC ACROBAT CHILD WITH A DEEP KINDNESS SASS AND MILD PYROMANIA HOW I ADORE THEE"

"RAZ NEEDS LOVE HE'S OUT THERE IN THE FIELDS THERAPYING YOUR DADDY ISSUES WITH EMPATHY AND KINDNESS"

"RAZ FIGHTS GENERATIONAL TRAUMA INCARNATE DESPITE BEING NEURODIVERGENT A MINOR AND TRANS"

Cecil Propaganda:

"Cecil is not only the Tumblr sexyman, he is the first gay protagonist of a podcast that most of us have ever heard. From the very first episode he was unashamedly queer and no one has ever called him out or given him shit for being gay. He is a gay Jewish fashion disaster who is the mouthpiece for an incredibly bizarre town and plays the whole “this horrifying thing is completely normal”thing so well. If Cecil wasn’t there, I think a lot of people wouldn’t have felt so accepted for just being who they were. Cecil is an inspiration and the queer podcast rep we all deserved as we were growing."

"he’s gay. he’s a dilf. he’s ageless. he has been since there’s was nothing and he’s still here after the world ended. he can summon music. his mother is a oracle his father is a tree. his cat is a man who got cursed and also has wings a stinger and poison??? he thinks a tutu and crocs is formal wear and has talked to god and she said ‘I love you. I’m sorry’. he’s definitely guilty of manslaughter from negligence"

[local-queer-classicist]

Hey queers (and other esteemed individuals) play this game it’s free and short and amazing and I love it.

Three transmasc characters to romance, great autistic rep, and BEAUTIFUL artwork. Like seriously the backdrops are INCREDIBLE. There’s also a goose.

[jamesunderwater]

also while we're whining, I spent hours tonight looking through new/upcoming queer romance novels and found a total of five that were about a trans man and a woman, and of those only three were a trans man/cis woman. and anyway the more i really settle into this new understanding of myself as a trans man who is mostly attracted to femmes, the more i feel just....so on the fucking outskirts of everything. being a trans man who presents mostly hetero is.....like you're not woman enough to be sapphic, you're not homo enough to be a gay guy, but you're also not cis so you don't feel like just some straight dude. and somehow all the queer and trans media out there has decided all trans men are gay, and sapphics are almost exclusively cis lesbians, so if a trans man and a queer woman are in the same room together it's probably on accident and there's no way they'd be attracted to each other.

lol and then you add in any sort of ace, aro, autistic, or adhd rep, and god forbid ask for it to not only be about white people??? i stg if i want a book about a latine trans guy who is ace-ish, audhd, and just wants to hold hands with a pretty girl, i'm gonna have to write that fucking thing myself.

and if I'm wrong and you know of books like this that already exist, dear god, please tell me. (i do definitely recommend the spirit bares its teeth by joseph white for a lot of good rep, but that book is so far from the romance novel i'm looking for here)

[sonicexelle-junkary]

Dude, are you romanticizing awful people like Jeffrey Dahmer or Armin Meiwea by putting up this show? Y’know the families of the victims are still hurt over him to this day… or are you an edgy insensitive person?

Plus, isn’t making him ND and ftm is awfully disrespectful to people from both communities?! My best friend is ftm and he got broke down crying saying how he hates people putting trans people as villains when he saw this.

Not shitting on you or your AU cuz your art is great TBH, just really curious or worried if you’re a Jeffrey Dahmer sympathizer?

FUCK NO! THAT MAN CAN BURN IN THE CENTRE IF HELL FOR ALL I CARE!

Ahem, anyways. I should clarify a few things regarding myself, my aus and what I put into it.

TLDR; I am not justifying or romanticizing cannibalism or peices of shit people like Jeffery Dahmer. I am also not trying to vilanize the trans or Neurodivergent community. I am just having fun with my ideas and art. It is not my intention to cause harm to anyone. It is just me fucking around with ideas.

Sonic isn’t ND and Trans because he’s a cannibal. He’s ND and Trans because he’s ND and Trans!

I, myself, am trans, I am Agender (He/They) and am Neurodivergent, I was diagnosed at a young age. I don’t like to put myself out there because it’s not really anyone’s business to know who I am. I use my art and AU’s as a form of expression, to vent my feelings in bizarre ways. This is not saying that I do wish to cannibalize or kill people, because I DONT and I don’t wish I’ll will on people (who don’t deserve it) either. I am an avid horror and gore lover, and love to create stuff in that genre, though not all the time.

HungryHero.EXE is based on MY PERSONAL HEADCANNONS OF EACH CHARACTER AND SONICS WORLD. It is NOT MY INTENTION to vilanize or create harm to the trans or ND community, or any community in general. As I’ve said, I am part of the trans and ND community myself, and I personally believe that trans rep is needed, good or bad. TRANS PEOPLE WHO ARE ASSHOLES CAN EXIST IVE SEEN IT WITH MY OWN EYES. Many other characters in HungryHero.EXE are also part of the LGBT or ND community as well, it’s not just sonic. Shadow himself is Agender and AroAce, even Tails is Autistic.

Sonic being the main character in HungryHero is just what I landed on, as I personally really like him, as well as he just happens to be the face of most Sonic.EXE AU’s. Him being trans and ND in the au was just because I just personally like the concept of him not being cis, as well as I see a lot of myself in him so I project myself onto him, it has NOTHING to do with vilanizing trans or ND people. I am also NOT ROMANTICIZING CANNIBALISM (intentionally). I know that it can be viewed in that way, but I PROMISE it’s not my intention to.

I think that absolutely disgusting people like Jeffery Dahmer should fucking get a punishment WORSE than hell. He has done the most DISGUSTING things I have EVER read a person could do and have not even a smidge of sympathy for others. People like that can die in a ditch and be burned alive for all I care.

If you are worried that HungryHero.EXE is my only au where I put my headcannons in, you’re wrong. I have TONES of AU’s that are not horror based and have Sonic characters being ND or LGBT, even if I haven’t explicitly said it yet. For example: my PIBTLW AU has him being openly gay and into shadow.

Please remember that this blog is just an piece of what I like. I don’t like to post really gruesome and gorey things on my main blog. This blog is not who I am as a whole, I am genuinely a very nice person, at least I try to be. If you still think that I am doing this to harm people, then I don’t know what else to say. You can block me if you like, but I’m not going to stop drawing things that I like to draw just to please people who think differently. I’m sorry, I won’t do that.

That’s all and have a good rest of your day.

Representation in MoaH (& GoS)

I don't like to tag my works with a lot of the rep tags they normally would/could have. Personally, from publishing the first book in Word Walkers, my experience is that those tags are more often used to blacklist works and I don't think people should get the opportunity to pretend that queer people, BIPOC people, disabled people don't exist by flagging that. Also like. As a white person, I feel a little weird being like "Look at all my BIPOC characters!" It feels a little virtue signally to me. Telling good stories should just include diverse casts because the world is diverse. You know?

Further, in my experience, particular with Wattpad at the moment, I have a platform to give people the 101 to a lot of these concepts (in particular queer and disability rep, which are my communities) and change their minds that they would have otherwise missed if they'd stayed in their bubble. It does mean you probably won't see things like neopronouns in my works, but if I can change someone's mind about they/them being singular, that's a start. I have a lot of ESL readers according to my stats on Wattpad and translating that can be difficult. But if my work can be a gateway for them learning what that means, that's more good done.

Also, my fics attract a lot of eggs so like. Y'all are finding me anyway, I don't need the tags.

Anyway, here's some of the confirmed rep in book 1 of MoaH and in GoS if y'all need a reference though for what is blatantly in the works so far.

Queer Rep

Marela is a lesbian and in a relationship with Saddiqah by the end of book 1

Link & Saddiqah are both bi-icons (confirmed in the Din's Temple arc) with femme preferences

The fortuneteller in Lake Town (Hart) uses she/they pronouns

The tour guide (unnamed) in Lake Town uses they/them pronouns

Zelda's middle sibling is transmasc, though he is not reintroduced as such until book 2 for plot reasons. His identity and the story around it is given a serious storybeat and is one of the reasons why MoaH Link is my only Link I firmly will say is a cis man, because I'm making a point of in having Link as an example of healthy masculinity (as a cis man) for a trans kid trying to find a role model on it. The series does not use his deadname again though after Link finds out in book 1

They show up later in book 1, but there's a gay couple in the Marksmen, Sorol and Kutt

That's just book 1. I've got an enby knight and an enby Goron in book 2. I've also gone over how some of the Gerudo naming conventions work in my worldbuilding posts to include enby rep like the Gerudo word for nonbinary, vyu, though Dirjaani Gerudo culture doesn't come up in the books until book 3.

Over in GoS, Endeavor is actually a huge part of my coming to terms with my own gender. Originally published with she/her pronouns, the current edits are giving Endeavor they/them pronouns to accurately reflect what I didn't have the language for in high school when I started writing GoS. Endeavor is agendered.

Endeavor has two moms

Two of the Earth Sages, Insen and Hira, are in a relationship, they are both men.

Disability Rep

Lance, Link's dad, uses mobility aids due to an injury that forced him to retire from the Marksmen.

Link has ADHD with anxiety symptoms, chiefly social. This is an intentional conversation on courage and how we define it.

Zelda is autistic. MoaH Zelda is also plus-sized.

Floan is auADHD, she has a special interest in bugs

Kaju, the son of Lake Town's steward, has a prosthetic leg

Ambrose has severe motion sickness (horseback riding is about the most he can handle, but he will not fight on horseback)

Not strictly a disability, but it's a point of worldbuilding that most Hyrulean lineage Zora don't do well in the cold, so there are accessibility enchantments made to allow for traveling extensively in colder regions.

Also not strictly a disability, but sign language is much more widely taught in Hyrule. It's a mandatory lesson for the Marksmen for tactics reasons, so Ambrose, Saddiqah, and Link all have at least a conversational level of fluency in it if not better.

Back in GoS, Link's granddad Lynard uses mobility aids.

Parijan, Guardian of the Spirit Sage, is blind.

Saruo, Priestess of Courage, has anxiety. Again, I like messing with the definition of courage.

BIPOC Rep

Ok, admittedly. MoaH is a little light here. But! In my defense, it's because I want the worldbuilding of MoaH to code countries and cultures with certain ethnicities and not races/species (i.e. the Gerudo aren't just automatically Middle Eastern, there are several cultures where Gerudo are prominent members with multiple influences). So in Hyrule, where the primary culture is Hyrulean coded European generic, there aren't as many opportunities for coded characters ethnically because that's not how I'm handling it. There are characters who are BIPOC, but it feels like a bit of a cop out to include them because then I just list off all the Gerudo who show up because their POC and that feels a little cheap. I am including them too, but I want to preface that other regions of this series are going to be better at this particular beat (I circle back to the enby knight, who is also BIPOC of Faronan-Dirjaani heritage, but that's book 2).

Basic ones, there are three major Gerudo characters in book 1: Saddiqah El Amin, Dragmire Al Iber, and Ayad Al I'Tidal. They are all of the more standard Hyrulean-Dirjaani lineages closest to canon expectation. Dirjaani cultures are influenced by Middle Eastern and North African cultures, so they are all women of color.

Saddiqah in particular, and this gets into spoilers so I'll be brief, is specifically coded to be a biracial woman. For reasons that come up in book 3. It's why her horse, Ajan, has a Creole name which is outside of the typical naming conventions I'm grabbing for the Hyrulean-Dirjaani names.

The Sheikah are coded as Japanese in the games, so Impa is coded as Japanese along with the Hyrulean Sheikah. Sorol is also a Hyrulean Sheikah, so this applies for him too.

The Dreeka in Hyrule are generally coded to be an indigenous group. Because of their relationship with the Sheikah, primary influence there is the Ainu. This includes all of the Dreeka characters introduced in MoaH (Constant, Temperance, Clarity, etc.) as well as the Drex in GoS (Endeavor, Justice, Zeal, etc.)

Over in GoS, Parijan and Dabir are both Middle Eastern coded, we are aiming to be more specific in the edits.

Sayyida and Daniel are both black.

This is loose canon, but I think there's a real read to GoS about making Link black because of the nameless and the felons' rights allegory that that is meant to be. I will not confirm it because Link is meant to be a stand in for the reader and how they see him, but I do like the interpretation.

And again, this is just book 1. There are nine books planned, there will be more.

WIP Introduction: Fate is Just the Half of It

Two hundred years after Earth was engulfed in nuclear fire, Rowan Woods wakes up from cryogenic sleep in the wreckage of his Orbital Ark. As he stumbles through the brave new (and still somewhat irradiated) world, he learns that the man he loved pre-apocalypse may be, impossibly, alive today.

The man in question, genius industrialist Jack Howard, has been given a new life as a self-aware android by the mysterious scientific collective known as the Agency. Earning his keep as the chief engineer of the Agency’s moon base, Jack has no reason to think that Rowan is alive and looking for him. But his obliviousness has never stopped Rowan before.

This is the story of two people who found each other after the end of the world.

Genre: sci-fi, post-apocalyptic, queer romance

POV: 3rd person limited, alternating between two main characters + snippets of diary in 1st person

Status: writing first draft, planning to start serialized release in 2024

Themes: survival and resilience, love and loss, humanity and identity

Vibes: character-focused, dialogue-heavy, angst with a happy ending, some existential moments, soft sci-fi (bordering on science magic where it's necessary to enable plot)

Also featuring: cyborgs, sentient androids

Warnings: apocalypse, character death, language, violence (non-graphic), sexual situations (non-graphic)

Rep: queer relationship (mlm); trans protagonist; diverse side cast; neurodivergence*

*unlabeled and undiagnosed on page, but a certain character always comes across as neurodivergent in my writing as a function of my own autistic brain

WIP Tag (currently featuring worldbuilding and snippets; will be more organized eventually)

-- tag list: @athenswrites, @ladyazulina, @author-a-holmes, @solarmusick

if you want to be updated about this story, let me know in the comments! if you have a preference for something you want or don't want to see, please note that too! (i.e. 'only worldbuilding talk', 'only snippets', 'no spoilers pls', etc.)

[poltertoast]

Following my Acachalla headcannons about identity I present

PIE identity headcannons

Ghost is Agender Poly Gay Ace (They/He/ae) (I also hc him as afab bc yeah)

Toast is Poly Bisexual trans man

Spooker is Poly Pan Ace Bigender (He/She)

Colon is Poly Pansexual Trans man

None of these guys are cishet in my mind. Also all are autistic, I don't make the rules.

Slight tanget on my other hc for them

Ghost is a system, I know that their relationship with Casket is bad rep but I still see them as a system. Personally bc the transition with going from being Gregory to Ghost speaks to me as a system with a host who changed over time.

Toast has chronic pain. With the werewolf thing and just general life, I feel like he's got chronic pain and wears braces on his back and wrists.

Also he fully funds PIE, he's rich and they do international investigations. It clicks.

I think they should all kiss. Power quadrant.

[punkeropercyjackson]

The correct Pjo headcanons are that Percy is a transfem autistic afrolatina,Annabeth is a stud,Grover is blasian and Juniper is his she/her gay boyfriend,Nico is black with chronic pain and mobility aids,Hazel is a transbian and they're both autistic like Percy and platonic soulmates by choice in every universe,Drew is another autistic transbian and had a healing arc starting in Tlh and is an older sister figure to Hazel and Nico like Percy and besties with Percy herself too,Thalia and Jason are black biracial with Thalia being a Sista Grrrl and Jason a browneyed lightskin and ex-wolfgirl turned trans werewolf mans,Leo is trans and autistic and did nothing wrong,Piper is an autistic transfem butch who clocks basic straight white girl femininity and roasts it with no mercy as reperations,Frank is a Bear x2 and autistic,Reyna is Thalia's femme ace lesbian girlfriend,Clarisse is part of the black demigod lightskins and a fat hairy man-hating butch lesbian,Silena got ressurected post-Hoo and is yet more black lightskin rep,Beckendorf is a stud but with he/him pronouns who used to call Percy 'Babycakes' and mentor her and the three of 'em are girlfriends against prophecies as a Dead Sea Siblings parallel and Luke is cishet with no bitches or 'tism including radicalism seeing as he dosen't even know Greek people aren't westerners

[randymarshiszaddy]

MARIO TWIN HEADCANON TIMES AGAIN

Mario - first off he is 4, 11 which is pretty obvious that he is of shorter stature, but you know what good for him. Another thing this man is plus size ok, or at the very least not thin. Trust me we need more postive bigger body rep ok . Also, he is a trans dude and realised it at the young age of 12. With his family being supportive. Hes very smart but also dumb at the same time. Like good with smarts of knowing how to comfort people and to be able to help at any point no matter the issues. yet dumb with actually planning things out like knowing where the fuck you're going. ADHD THIS MAN IS. Also sweetest boyfriend ever. He abslouty makes little gifts for peach and he abslouty brings joy into a once mundane life for her .

big fan of bands/ artists like Foo Fighters, Beastie Boys, Soundgarden, Pharrell. and Ice cube ( you know dad music)

Fav movies. All the Back to the Future, Princess Bride ( It reminds him of Peach and him) and Ferris bullers day off.

Luigi - She is transfem but was really scared to come out as she thought it would ruin her whole twin matching thing that she and Mario had for a while. Turns out Mario doesn't need Luigi to be his exact green counterpart and fully supports her. AUTISTIC AND ANIEXTY does this woman have. She somewhat dislikes the toads because of how they act towards her as the lesser Mario sibling. Would make an insta all about her dog Polterpup! She and Daisy dated pre-transition but broke up on good terms . Luigi would probably date Peasley as the dashing "Prince Charming" always had a crush on Luigi.

She definitely has scars around the chest area from the time Dimento and Natasha pretty much controlled her to be mr L. The memories of Mr L were also placed back into her head after they left the exploding dimension okay. Cause I love that angst

Her fav music ( this is so self projecting) Laufy, Chase petra, Queen, Left at london , Elton John and hoizer

her fav movies are .

Moonrise Kingdom , princess diares , and Rocket man
