#and that they’re not all inclusive btw

[dr-lizortecho]

as someone who is hoping to attend grad school for theology, and read their Bible on a semi-regular basis, I’d like to remind anyone ever thinking of looking stupid by saying something like “God given sex” to read their Bible critically and maybe chew on some rocks, cause like textually speaking it’s very pro-gender and never once does it claim there are only two genders nor does it equate gender to sex

[oncamelliastreet]

it’s so concerning how obsessed people online are with celebrities relationships. the same people who say “they don’t know you and wouldn’t want you” when you stick up for a celebrity who’s done nothing wrong proceeds to drag a man they DONT know and will NEVER know based on RUMORS like we’re in HIGH SCHOOL and proceed to drag his looks like that is ever a good place to go.

My favourite natal chart aspects/placements these days have probably been Sun-Moon harmonious aspects as in Sun trine Moon, Sun conjunct Moon or Sun sextile Moon. There’s something about your emotions and your ego being in tune with one another thats just simply so beautiful.

The way one can unconsciously and consciously make decisions thats not only best for their highest goods but also inclusive of their emotions is truly amazing to me. It’s about having that level of comfort between yourself externally and internally to be honest. These people process their emotions so well as they embrace the truest idea that at the end, everything will be okay.

I also recently enjoy seeing Mars in Aries/Scorpio too! They react sooo well so positive reinforcement don’t get me wrong but its the way they can take a good constructive criticism and take feedbacks into consideration is truly spectacular. I look up to their way of taking criticism and instead take a step back at the same time, they embrace it and let it motivate them. This applies to all Aries and Scorpio placements by the way. Especially true if they understand your good intentions.

Another aspects I recently fell in love with is any 4th house placements. I talked about how the 10th house placements always have a very self-critical mindset before and 4th house placements can also experience the same thing, but for very different reasons. They’re extremely nostalgic people btw, the type to remember every good things you’ve ever done for them, to remember the time you believe in them and to one day, repay you for all of it, for your faith in them when no one did, for your kindness to them when they couldn’t give it to themselves:)

Fuck it I’m speaking my truth. Boobers y’all gotta stop being unnecessarily mean to ConnorEatsPants. I’ve been going through his sf6 vods and every time he references being ostracized and harassed by twitter users, my heart breaks. Connor even said that he no longer mentions being friends with Ranboo and other creators because he doesn’t want boobers to start hating Ranboo for it.

And he’s right btw. Remember when there was a possibility Connor might be in genloss? Instead of being excited or just saying nothing, boobers began linking threads on why he’s such a horrible person and how his inclusion would ruin the project as a whole. We don’t even know if he was joking or not, yet you all still celebrated when he didn’t appear in episode 2. I’m pretty sure Connor will never publicly interact with Ranboo or this community again after the way you all treated him. That’s really fucked guys.

While I understand the want to “hold people accountable” for their past actions, 1) it’s not your responsibility to hold people accountable over the internet and 2) judging everyone on their past mistakes alone is a very dehumanizing and hypocritical way to view other people.

Why is this community all about treating other with respect and kindness, especially when they’re on the spectrum, but Connor is the exception?

warm naruto take i feel like shikanaruhina is underrated as a trio. i feel like they’re like all the perfect balance and perfect material for character development and dynamics n maybe some shenanigans w the inclusion of Kakashi.

They all have the potential to bring out specific traits in each other their personalities cancel each other out too and they all immediately have something to contribute too and i feel like it’d be so healthy with healthy development instead of turbulent then peaceful ykwim ??

what each brings to the table

Shikamaru — clear thought, common sense, rationale, calm attitude

Hinata — patience, encouragement, thoughtfulness

Naruto — outgoing, encouragement, plenty of energy to share w his quieter/lazier counterparts, always pushing to improve

think about it. THINK ABOUT IT. (i need fics w these 3 btw if anyone cares to lend a hand.)

this also doesn’t even have 2 be teams btw just these 3 tgth in ANY setting.. underrated.

“I Need a Big Boy!!”

(Picture credit to @akavendeta on twitter)

Pairing: König x gn!reader; “Simon “Ghost” Riley x gn!reader; König x gn!reader x Simon “Ghost” Riley

Warnings: Groping, language, strong men being strong (not proofread)

2nd Person POV

A/N: Hey everyone! I’m so, SO sorry that this took so long. I’ve been having a lot of stuff going on and haven’t gotten the chance to finish this. Sorry if this sucks too. Also I was thinking about instead of doing just the biggest, sweetest boy, I figure I’d add the other big boy. This is definitely gonna be cringe but whatever, I need to get this out of my brain. My apologies if there’s any spelling mistakes, it’s been a minute since I’ve written anything lol. Also this is going based off of my personal headcannons for these guys, which I do plan on posting in the future. For now just a heads up König is Pansexual and goes by he/him pronouns. Simon is Bi and goes by both he/him and they/them pronouns. Obviously they’re in a poly! relationship with the reader. I’m going to try my best with making it gender neutral and not have it just be non-binary!afab!reader, which is fine on my end but I’m trying to be as inclusive as possible.

Anyway, enough of my ranting, I hope you enjoy!

(Btw italicized words is anyone thinking unless it’s in quotations.)

It’s been about two weeks since your partners have come home from deployment. Simon was out running errands for the house while König was getting the kitchen set up for dinner. Thankful for both of them letting you relax on your day off, you were watching the most recent episode of SNL that you missed last weekend on the sofa in the main living area. The episode had Keke Palmer as the host and SZA as the musical guest. After watching the episode for about 20 minutes, SZA and the other actors that were a part of the SNL crew began singing a song about wanting a “big boy,” or “big girl,” for the holidays. A brilliant idea popped up in your mind while you were reaching for your phone during the commercial break.

If I recall my bluetooth speaker should still be in the kitchen from this morning. Hm, let me check.

You went to the settings on your phone to see of the speaker was on to connect, even though it was on the charger.

It was.

You smirked, hitting the button to connect your phone to the speaker. König was still preparing everything when he heard the noise from the device. 

“Schatz?”

Shit... “Yeah..?”

“Were you connecting to the speaker?”

You quickly turned down the volume on your phone in case it accidentally played anything. “Uh no, why?”

“It just made an odd.. boodoop noise? I guess you could call it...? I’m not really sure.”

You smiled softly at the curiosity in his voice, even though he couldn’t see your face from the other room, “It just makes that noise sometimes when it’s charging, babe.”

He shrugged and continued prepping any veggies that he wanted to add to dinner.

You sighed in relief and quickly pulled up Youtube on your phone and found the video within typing the artist’s name in the search bar. You turned your volume back up and began playing the song. 

He jumped from the sudden song playing on the device, startled by the heavy beat it was erupting. 

“Uhh... Schatz...?” He asked as he heard voices and heavy bass coming from the speaker.

You walked into the kitchen on the beat of the song singing out loud, “It’s cuffing season and now we got a reason,

To get a big boy,

I need a big boy,

Gimme a big boy!~”

You slowly made your way towards him while pointing at him whenever you lip-synced “big boy.”

Meanwhile König froze and looked at you with wide eyes. You could begin to see red spread across his face as he started to get flustered. “(Y-y/n)... w-what’s happening...?”

You smirked and continued “singing” the song,

“It’s cuffing season and all the girls are leaving to get a big boy, I need a big boy, gimme a big boy.~”

You couldn’t really remember the rest of the lyrics but kept on dancing as you made your way to him on the other side of the kitchen. He was flustered and began stammering, “W-What’s all this about..?”

You pulled a cheshire cat grin and simply hugged him, resting your head on his torso with your arms around his slutty waist. “Just singin’ about one of my big boys is all,” you slowly slid your hands down to grab his ass, causing him to yelp and jump slightly in your arms. 

You could hear his heartbeat racing, it began pumping even faster when you two heard the front door open, signaling Simon was home. “Ohhh Siiii.~” You sang from the kitchen. 

He heard you call and walked into the kitchen, not really paying any mind to the music, until you pointed it out...

“It’s cuffing season and everyone is leaving to get a big boy, I need a big boy, give me a big boy.~”

Needless to say he was confused, “how and where did they find a song like this?” he thought to himself as you sauntered over to him, once again wrapping your hands around his waist and slowly moving them down. He glanced up at König for some sort of answer, but the gentle giant only shrugged, red still tinting his cheeks.

“Love, have you been drinking? Are you horny? If so, it’ll have to wait because we haven’t even had dinner yet.” He asked, pulling off his face mask from running to the store earlier. 

You sighed and smirked a little, pinching one of Simon’s cheeks, “No, it’s just a song that I heard on a show and it reminded me of you guys.”

He quickly snatched your hands off his ass, “Oi!”

He quickly picked you up and placed you on an empty part of the island countertop. He leaned over to your ear, “Love, you better watch it, or you’re just gonna have to watch us eat dessert tonight...”

New headcanon inspired by @ninthcircleofprythian and @tsunami-of-tears recent inclusions of both Lucien and Eris with reading glasses (hot, btw)

The Vanserra brothers have HORRIBLE eyesight. Like truly awful. It’s why they all look so angry all the time, because Beron thinks having them wear glasses shows weakness, so they’re always squinting to see things sort of properly. Don’t even mention the tension headaches from not having proper care. (It’s no wonder they’re always at each others throats- they’re all in constant pain.)

Eris secretly gets a pair of glasses made to use when Beron isn’t around, and when Lucien starts struggling as a kid, makes sure he gets a pair as well under the condition that they stay hidden. Eventually, they both keep pairs of glasses stashed in random places all over their respective houses.

When Beron dies, the first thing Eris does after becoming High Lord is ordering all of his brothers to see healers to get glasses. Everyone else is like “huh?”, but Eris insists. His brothers hate him for it at first, but then they can see the leaves on the trees. Their headaches aren’t as bad, and if they wear their glasses all day, they don’t get them at all. Eventually they decide it was the best thing he ever did for them. He rules from the Autumnal throne with a golden leafy crown- and matching gold-tone rimmed glasses.

Glasses become the new fashion. Everybody wins. (Especially me)

[olenvasynyt]

Hola I have returned!

The ACoEaS Vanserra brothers (modern au) are on Vacation at an all-inclusive resort. Who:

Has their suitcase lost and spends the rest of the trip begging/stealing the other brother's things to get by;

Four brothers are forced to pair up and room together bc Beron was being cheap and only booked so many rooms. Who is forced to share?; 

Ends up crashing the wedding happening at the resort and somehow is invited onto the after party yacht;

takes advantage of the "all you can eat" morning buffet and has no less than three plates of food, much to the disgust of some of the other brothers;

disappears the moment they pick-up their luggage at the airport and is only sporadically seen throughout the vacation at a distance. Never answers any text messages from his family asking where he is;

Loses their room key on a near daily basis;

Is being ogled by all of the guests, but has no idea;

Falls head over heels with another guest. They don't speak the same language, but the brother is convinced this is a love story for the ages;

Gets drunk and wakes up the next day in some bushes a few miles from the resort;

has made friends with seemingly everyone at the resort and eats meals at a different table every single day;

reads no less than four books;

does all the activities the resort has to offer - beach volleyball, snorkling, surfing, zipling etc; 

sleeps in everyday til noon vs who is up at the crack of dawn and gets a grand total of three hours of sleep every night;

is sipping daiquiris at the swim up bar and making idle conversation with the bartender while watching brother x and brother x attempt to drown each other across the pool;

spends 90% of their time getting pampered at the luxurious spa;

ends up getting hurt doing [insert activity of choice] and spends a full day at the hospital - brother X is forced to accompany them; and 

convinces X brothers to go midnight swimming in a restricted zone. They are reported to police. Who gets away, who caught and held overnight in detention for evading the police. 

Omg I'm ready. (They are vacationing in Summer btw obviously)

Elmar gets their suitcase lost and more so threatens than begs or steals from other brothers to get by lmao.   This brings up fights including “this is my fucking shirt anyways you stole it from me a decade ago!” Most of his threats are for nothing and he just ends up going to town to buy a new wardrobe. 

Lucien, Jora, Aatos and Galeti are forced to pair up and room together (because they are all the youngest) and Galeti and Lucien lovingly call it “the party room”. They hoard several bottles of alcohol in there and party very often. Aatos, y introverted sober baby, isn't into it so he goes down in the lobby to read or something

either Galeti or Lucien absolutely crashes the wedding happening at the resort and is of course invited onto the after-party yacht.  They’re both pretty charismatic like that.

Lucien and Raivis take advantage of the "all you can eat" morning buffet.  Lucien has the three plates of food while Raivis just happened to be up already, so he’s sipping coffee and eating a reasonable omelet at 5 in the morning.

Eris disappears the moment they pick-up their luggage at the airport and is only sporadically seen throughout the vacation at a distance. Never answers any text messages from his family asking where he is.  He is having a fun gay outing.

The other guests stare atJora all day and he has no idea why until he realizes that Galeti and Lucien shaved a chunk of the back of his hair off while he was sleeping.

Oh god Elmar ABSOLUTELY falls head over heels with another guest and he is convinced she is in love with him because she’s always giggling and looking in his direction.  Nah, she just thinks he’s an idiot and is talking about him in her language.  

Getting drunk and waking up the next day in some bushes a few miles from the resort is something Lucien would do

Galeti has made friends with seemingly everyone at the resort and eats meals at a different table every single day.

Eris is probably the brother who reads the most books during the vacay, Raivis is the runner up, and then Lucien, who amazingly reads at least two despite partying day and night.

Omg Aatosssss does all of the resort stuff.  This is this shit, he’s the biggest outdoor guy.  I think he would spend a lot of time swimming and hiking on the beach.  Galeti could not do the ziplineing.  He refuses to say he’s afraid of heights but he threw up when they did a brother hike up a mountain.  And idk if you have seen Avatar the Last Airbender but there’s the beach episode where the fire nation squad has a vacation and does a beach volleyball competition.  They would team up and get way too into that lmao.

I don’t think any of the brothers sleep in because I headcanon that most of the brothers have insomnia. I feel like the person who gets a “reasonable” amount of sleep is Galeti and that’s only because he passes out after partying.  But he’ll pass out around 5 am and then wake up at 10am and continues on his partying. Eris and Raivis are the worst I think, so they aint sleeping a wink, even on vacation.

LMAO I love this prompt.  Eris is the one sipping daiquiris at the swim-up bar and making idle conversation with the bartender (it’s a guy and he’s flirting) while watching Elmar x and Glaeti x attempt to drown each other across the pool.  He’s not stepping in because he’s on vacation. 

Oooooh all of the brothers deserve to be at the spa!  I’m going to say Raivis.  At first he refuses to do it per Eris’ suggestion but then he goes and he has the best sleep of his life.  I feel like he really likes the sauna too.  And he loves his hair so that’s the main sort of pampering he gets!

Hmmmmm I would say Elmar gets hurt in the volleyball tournament.  Aatos is the nice brother who accompanies him and he sneaks in alcohol per Elmar’s demands (Is this forshadowing so something that actually happens in ACOEAS?  Hmm maybe….)(not the sneaking alcohol part haha)

Lucien convinces the younger brothers to go midnight swimming in a restricted zone after they get drunk together in the party room they were forced to stay in together because Beron is cheap. The police catches them but Lucien and Galeti get away while poor Jora and Aatos are caught and held overnight in detention.  Aatos is really sly and nice to them though so he helps give them a good case.

I love these so so much omg please keep them coming and please get even more specific and ridiculous 😂💕

[caeliangel]

hi cael! sorry to bother you but i saw what you posted about “safequeers” and jesus christ they are hypocrites

“anti exclusionist” as if they aren’t the exclusionists they are against

“anti gold star lesbian” literally the fact that they are anti bi-lesbian and lesboys it kinda seems like they might be one (i think gold star works in this scenario, not exactly sure lmao)

also the fact that they have the nerve to say

“Safequeer is an inclus movement that promises to protect disabled people, queer people, and people of color. We are all about queer liberation and inclusion as well as defending the rights of disabled people and bipoc.”

and

“Safequeer is about uplifting queer, disabled, and bipoc voices about the issues going on in our community.”

while excluding people is genuinely crazy. like you aren’t including people, you’re doing what you say you’re against. (not at you btw) anyways, they’re just an exclus in denial

also sorry this rant was long lol

- @pupiipawzz

Gold star lesbianism is a problematic label due to the users claiming they are better for not liking men so yes being against lesboy and bi lesbian is goldstar lesbianism because what comes from it was political lesbianism aka the idea that those who didn't like men where somehow better. It's quite an hypocrite way of thinking indeed!

They're absolutely just what we define by exclus. They think that when we say exclu we mean someone who exclude everything but no, if you stand against some queer voices, you are an exclu. If you don't bother to even try to understand complex queer labels or if you care that much, you are an exclu!

Very true

[nonsensefromtheabyss]

Hello! I am OK1610 from ao3. I loved Riddle V.I.Z.ion so much! Such an amazing story with great characters! I loved the aliens especially! Your story inspired me to weave my own tale for these characters as well as a design element for Diz (the support beams) for my refs of the aliens (credited in the post)! I cannot wait to read more about them and their pasts!

Any chance we can get a little sneak peak of what is to come?

('Riddle Classified' sounds like a great name btw!)

Hello!! Lovely to see you again!

Literally had to spin in circles at work when you said my story inspired you, was not prepared; I’m honoured <3 and I hope you have fun creating! You art is so perfect!!! I love how the style is still reminiscent of the game art but far more detailed and much more fun to look at—it’s so vibrant! They’re all super adorable (rotating Quiz in my mind rn) and it looks like such a sweet AU—I’m an absolute sucker for stories where things end well (which I don’t think anyone would guess from my own works XD.) Would be super intrigued to know more when you’re ready to share!

(Definite spoilers for my future Riddle School fic below the cut!)

Dutifully adding a tally to Riddle Classified’s column! I swear the title is going to be the bit I decide last with this thing, it’s certainly giving me the most trouble XD

As for sneak peaks, hmmm; it’s a little early in the process for me to feel like I’ve got much that’s actually interesting to share, but I could tell you about the first chapter? It’s post defection, a few years into the V.I.Z.ion Project, and involves Quiz being kidnapped by bounty hunters/pirates. He has to stall for time, turning them against each other as a distraction, while Viz and Diz sneak around and kill off the people stationed at other outposts before picking him up. 

It’s told from the perspective of the pirates, who really have no idea who or what Quiz is, and is set in a snowstorm to really play up a theme of isolation/being trapped. Horror movie vibes. They know something is going on outside, and they know their contacts are going cold one by one, but they can’t figure out why—maybe it’s just the storm like their leader says, maybe it’s something else. They’re stuck with this unknown alien who’s sounding way too plausible when he says the roof might cave in, or there’s something outside, who talks them into telling him the scary stories they’ve heard about rogue soldiers in the area. If they go outside and try to run, they’ll definitely die of exposure, but if they stay? Unclear. And surely nothing out there could be alive. The noises are the wind, just the wind, they’re not in danger, nothing’s getting closer, everything’s fine.

It’s a good opportunity to play with Quiz’s unique skill set of appearing very harmless to manipulate people, gives me the chance to do some exposition on the alien’s species lore, and—most vitally—sets a pretty sinister tone for the V.I.Z.ion crew actually in action! A good jumping off point for what’s to come!

Another chapter I’ve got planned as a definite inclusion (though I don’t know where it’ll go yet; probably late in the collection) is them kidnapping Phil. It’s from Phil’s perspective, and I’ve honestly just been galaxy braining over it for a few nights now; he just barely escapes them when they see him first (runs through populated places they can’t follow, gets on a bus, his dog attacks Quiz when he gets home) and then spends the next few days as Dib from Invader Zim trying to convince his family that Aliens Are Definitely Real And Also After Him. They don’t believe him. One night he wakes up to find that everyone else is knocked out, and the aliens are in the house searching for him. He doesn’t get away this time. Very stressful times for Phil—I don’t think I’ve ever written a non-stressful time for Phil. I don’t think I’ve written a non-stressful time for any of these characters.

With this chapter, I’m hoping to do something with the perspective shift, which is another reason I think it should come late in the formatting. While the aliens are very much villain protagonists in this, having everything be through their eyes will eventually make them familiar—maybe not exactly relatable, but certainly comfortable. The jarring dissonance of exchanging that highly militarised, desensitised perspective to an actually human one—the P.O.V of someone we, the audience, know—when he’s terrified and being hunted by them appeals to me. Particularly as, at that point, I will have written scenes of the V.I.Z.ion aliens interacting with humans from their own perspective, and the difference between what they think and what people think can be thrown into even sharper relief.

I realise I’ve told you about the only two chapters that aren’t from the alien’s direct perspectives, so sorry about that! But I hope they made for a satisfying sneak peak <3 maybe this isn’t what you meant at all… I’ve never actually done a sneak peak before!

[lavender-teardroplettes]

did you even read the doc? YOUR the one making it all about autism when that wasn't the case at all and its so fucking rude to say "where is your empathy" to cutiesigh when she(? i’m not sure of the pronouns) lost a loved one as well and had Winndy do the exact same thing to her. why don't you ask Winndy where her empathy was when she "dropped paragraphs on cutiesigh after she lost her cousin?" Winndy slandered the community first by saying bad things about the community in the server. your pov is very biased to me and people like us shouldn’t be commenting on it if we weren’t in the server to begin with. respect everyones privacy in the matter and respect Winndy not wanting us to turn thins into a massive deal. she's dealing with a lot right now and all your doing is stirring drama and using her misfortune to your advantage. so grow the fuck up and stay out of this and respect Winndy's wishes while your at it.

Hiya- I was given permission by Winndy to say my piece after a back and forth of me not being able to get this in before the responses were made and I only made alterations after Saint made her doc. I read it 4 times over because it’s long with the inclusion of me reading Saints first response to Winndy in full around 3 times before the unedited version came out in response to Winndy’s response so I could have context on the situation.

Whether you like it or not- Winndy can not change the fact that they’re autistic and that this is a cycle many people with ASD/AUAD have faced and will still continue to face not only irl but also in online spaces- I’ve grown up with it, that’s why I have the words to call this cycle out. Yes- there are other issues that ARE being addressed, but I can’t blatantly ignore the fact that people with REAL LIFE struggles relating to this are being told to shut up when we bring up our grievances. I ask where is your empathy as someone who has not only lost family- but lost someone who wasn’t even family to me but was close enough to be a father figure because he not only was a classmate’s father- but my teacher. Losing him hurt me so bad, I can only imagine how his sons and daughter felt- how his wife felt who never retired from teaching the high school I went to afterwards. Saying “well they did it first so nyehhh!!!” doesn’t make it better, Winndy acknowledges that she should have handled it better when she was a MOD coming to the server owner with concerns, and I don’t see how you can’t take that situation and use it to better communication going forward to avoid another situation like what happened with last year. I’m sorry, but that’s how I see it. You don’t have to be happy with it and are more than able to just block me.

Btw- hope you like being on anon. 👍🏽 I can tell you’re mad with what I have to say, but, again, telling me to “grow up” because I gave my opinions and insight as someone who didn’t know I was autistic until I was an adult doesn’t make you any better, really. There are obvious things that are being overlooked and I’ve always stated that sometimes I just can’t hold my tongue. Again, the block button’s free. ✌🏽

[thecartoonghoul]

I feel like an outsider in the lgbt community or more specifically the trans community and I know this might come off as me being hard to please but I legit I don’t feel like I belong cuz outside of being lgbt I have pretty much nothing in common with the vast majority of them I’ve seen(longish post btw)

-I’m not into a lot of the music that’s popular in these circles(hyperpop, house, metal, and most harder rock in general aren’t my thing)

-I don’t like loud concerts/clubs because the noise is just too much for me

-I refuse to participate in drugs and quite frankly we need to have a talk about how people romanticize drugs because it’s a serious issue

-Although I am on occasion willing to play some video games i wouldn’t call myself a gamer

-I don’t know or do anything involving coding or engineering

-This one I admit is a bit of a nitpick but even among the ones that do enjoy watching cartoons I’ve yet to come across any who are interested in animation the same way I am like rarely if ever do they talk about golden age stuff much it’s usually just anime, dramedies(mostly 2010s and later), baby shows, animated sitcoms, or stuff they’re nostalgic for and while I don’t dislike most of those things it does annoy me a bit how other things tend to be ignored.

Also while I can tolerate some things society has deemed cringe I do have my limits and I know this isn’t all trans women but the uwu puppygirl shit is painfully cringe and I hate how prominent it is on pretty much every platform I go looking for fellow trans fems not to mention the rather disturbing fetishes I’ve seen(especially incest like wtf is wrong with you) and I’m tired of holding my tongue or pretending to be someone I’m not just because I want to make friends and don’t want to be perceived as transphobic.

Ignoring Twitter since I was already on there and knew it wouldn’t work the first platform I tried to search for transfems on was TikTok but it didn’t take long for me to realize that it’s got the same issues most others have, more recently I’ve also tried multiple discord and reddit servers but all of them were like this(+ some were way too comfortable with right wing beliefs and/or zionism), tumblr isn’t as bad but ngl i feel like I’m talking to the void more often than not since I pretty much never get any interactions beyond brief small talk.

I’ve officially given up on looking exclusively for transfem spaces and am now hoping to find LGBT inclusive spaces that don’t feel the same as everything else cuz I hate being so lonely all the goddamn time, for the record I live in a mostly conservative small town so I don’t have anyone irl I can talk to about this and the few irl friends I did have all ghosted me.

This isn’t a sympathy begging post or anything like that I know I’m not entitled to these things and that far more important things are going on right now I just needed to get this off my chest.

[shining-kommo-o]

Hey there, same person as before , have a couple of more questions and opinions I wanna share

-After looking at the gen 3 sprites , was it possible that the Poochy Pokémon would evolve into the 2 other dogs found in the sheet based on its in game gender ? Ally (the primarinna lookalike) is very clearly a dog based on her collar and paws and Eidog is just a dog. This may be a bit far fetched since they’re quite far in the Pokédex but the Seedot and Breeloom evolution are quite far as well

- Was it confirmed that the scrapped Scraggy was the fossilmon of the gen that evolved into Archon?

-I’ve been wondering about something, was the scrapped 3 staged sea Snail line supposed to be the water starter for the region? I does match a bit with oshawott’s shell motif and the final stage also fights with a shell similar to samurott ?

- Could the scrapped electric mythical from Kalos be Zeraora? Thinking about it both it and zygarde had more of an importance on Gen 7 , and we know that Pokémon Z would’ve had zygarde complete in it. And Zera maybe is supposed to be Rattatoskr

And I’ll end it with an opinion, man , I wish whoever drew those gritty designs got to direct a game of their own, they look so much like concept art for a late ps1 obscure JRPG , and they also must be working at game freak still because the concept art for N also resembles them, maybe during the Gear Project years we could’ve gotten it, but oh well

Welcome back dear anon! I’ll do my best to answer all your questions!

I’ll put it all under a read more to save everyone’s feeds!

1. By Poochy, Ally and Eidog, I believe you mean these three?

There could be a chance of all of them being related? But their dex position seems to point to the contrary. Ally (also known as Arei) was earlier in the Pokédex, and Eidog was way later. Maybe at some point they were from the same line, but i couldn’t really see it. They are so different from one another!

I had a spreadsheet, but seems like it was taken down. So instread, here’s this picture. It’s all i have and it’s really not up to date… ^^’ things have really moved since then

(Also, for a sec, when I read Poochy, I thought this was about the character from the fighting game Power Instinct ^^’… I’ve been way too much into fighting games lately!)

2. Signs point to yes! If you refer to the picture above, you can see they are right next to eachothers, as number 396 and 397! They are also pretty much the only ones with a bold color palette like this, so i’d day yes, the old scraggy-like pokémon evolves into the blue proto-grovyle! I can’t say for sure if it was a fossilmon, but i could very well see it as that!

3. That was one of the lines of Pokémon that slipped by when I started posting… I was sure I saved / Posted these guys, but I guess I forgot!

As for their status, I would have to reconfirm. A lot of information came out all at once and it was hard to track. I know there was a few waves of gen 5 beta content. From what I’m aware, there was sprites for the oshawott line in the leaks, but they were already pretty much fully formed. I’m not sure if he coexisted with the sea snail pokémon. I’m sure once this blows over, people will have everything in order and i’ll have an answer to give you. They do look like starters tho so i’ll give you that!

I’ll give you this as an apology for my lack of answer, some tepig line beta sprites that i, ALSO, didn’t post! ^^’

4. It’s all speculations, but I tend to ascribe to this theory, that Zeraora was the scrapped electric mythical. It would fit in the lore built around the legendaries of Kalos. Also, an interesting bit someone pointed out to me is that Zeraora starts with a Z, and ends with an A. Brings it back together i guess. And maybe it’ll show up in Legends Z-A because of that.

I also think that its inclusion in Alola was random. Ik it’s the case for all mythicals, but come on. They just distributed this thing and went home. Zarude had more of a story going. (Love Zarude btw). And considering Alola ALSO was the region stuck with the whole “100 zygarde cells” thing, i could see Zeraora being pasted on there as to not waste it i guess.

Kalos as a region is. Full of disappointments. Things were set up, and abandonned. Never elaborated upon. That of they were rushed.

Injecting my own opinion here, those who know me know that I make no secret of my dislike for Kalos. When I play those games, I feel nothing. I felt nothing back when I played them at 14. Actually no, i was pissed off that the cover of X lied to me by telling me Xerneas was gonna be this cool rainbow deer, but it was actually just Dogwater Blue, and I had to use Geomancy for it to be cool. But besides that, i felt nothing. I’ve played Pokémon games for all my life. I was barely out of the womb that my older sister would put her Pokémon toys on me so I’d learn their name. I felt something with every game I played except XY.

I hope Z-A can be some sort of course correction for this generation. At least make everything make sense.

I also dislike Kalos because I’m a native french speaker. And the way they use french pisses me off. Why is there a trainer named “Chaise” (literally chair). Why is there a road named Brun Way (brown way. Ew??). Im so glad theres a street called Avance Trail. Derrière way. Vallée étroite way. Dear god this pisses me off. And iirc they don’t do this shit with ANY other games so WHY HERE. GSJFBDJDBFKFN.

Sorry about that… I tend to get heated when talking about those games ^^’. Anyways back on track!

As for your thoughts on the gen 3 concept art, people have speculated that it was done by Okutani Jun. He mostly did work on Pokémon games, but he did also do concept art for Xenoblade Chronicles, Mystic Arc, Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles - Rings of fate and Magatama according to Moby Games. Though i’ve seen your feelings shared across other users in the tags of that post: the public demands a PSX JRPG!

I will never uundertanad how people care about like..inclusive language. Like in the way that they act bothered by it. Like mf why does it bother you? How does it affect you? It always feels like people simply feel attacked by the simple inclusion of other people into a conversation or anywhere really. And that applies to many other things. Like when people start calling a video game woke or whatever cuz you can choose to have a same sex relationship or there’s a person of color. Hell even a little lgbtw flag or whatever. It’s like when people say all lives matter when somone brings the BLM subject in. It’s like…mf this isn’t an u. Stop taking everything personal.

And going back to the language thing. Like as a cis girl. It does not affect in a single way if someone uses any kind of gender inclusive language? Like if someone says “person w a vagina” like sure? Idc. Like I reaaallllyyy don’t care. Don’t careee. I’m a person. I have a vagina. Yeah they’re referring to me. I still feel like a woman. I feel sure in my gender. I feel strong in my identity. Like damn cis people have to learn to be sure of their identity. Be more confident in your gender bruh.

Like duh people who get offended by inclusive language are really just simply bigots but I feel like it’s still happens with people who claim to support certain groups- but then act annoyed if someone talks an inclusion as if it’s a personal attack on them or people do it for the sake of annoying ppl. I remember I was in this shitty theatre class where instead of theatre kids there were a bunch of popular kids who joined to not do anything- and the teacher walks in- he was very weird btw- like in the way he thinks he’s super wise and he makes you think he’s wise but then a year later you like damn what a fraud - anyways;

He walks in and he’s like - “oh, now we are not allowed to say ladies and gentlemen because it’s not inclusive “ or smth like that, and the rest of the kids are like “uuughh🙄🙄🙄😒😒” and I just stood there like- girl? 💀

I know damn well you pulled that out of your ass cuz no one is forcing you to not say ladies and gentlemen. Ik damn well the school doesn’t give a fuck and neither of the parents. He probably saw it on the internet and took as “oh now I’m FORCED to say NOT ladies and gentlemen 🙄 wow the audacity of these annoying humans” like bro no one is putting you at gun point.

And even if someone said, “yeah you should change the intro and say smth else other than ladies and gentlemen” is it really that deep? Like to complain? It’s an intro. I really dgaf. Again. As a cis girl. I’m already included so it doesn’t nessecarilly affect me. But neither does anything else. Mf just say welcome students teacher and parents or whatever? Bruh I dunno it really isn’t that deep to groan ab- it simply respect 🤨

It’s like those Disney adults complaining ab doesn’t saying “welcome dreamers “ ….like yeah it’s pretty on theme. And again. How does it affect you. Your a dreamer, aren’t you? Unless your not lmao which if that’s the case that’s pretty miserable ngl.

Anyyywaayssss

Sorry for the rant but like I just keep seeing it everywhere and I just needed to blow some steam off. It’s so stupid. It really is .

So in your books I know the fem characters have heat cycles which is ovulation but do they actually menstruate. Also what happens if a fem character is in heat while dating her bf but they aren’t mated yet?

(I’m curious because I’m a writer and I want to include the theory in my book)

Oh my goodness I’m so sorry I’m just answering this. I didn’t see it! 😭😭😭 but I’m here now 🫡 thank you for asking btw! And I just want to preface this by saying this is all in my head and a theory I’ve made up:

Tw: period/heat talk?

1. So I did kind of answer this already in a previous ask but I’d classify them as mammals that reabsorb their lining rather than bleed it out! So no they wouldn’t menstruate after experiencing estrus

2. If they’re not mated yet and she goes into heat I’d say it’s likely they will mate, or they’ll just engage in coitus (sex lol). Simply because they are under the influence of their cycle/primal urges to procreate. And whilst they’re mutually inclusive (i.e. occur at the same time - mating & sex) they don’t necessarily always have to occur at the same time, every time. So you can have sex, without being mated and without making tsaheylu. And you can mate, make tsaheylu and not have sex. But having sex and making the bond at the same time would be the standard

I hope I explained this well 😭 my brain kinda isn’t braining tonight! Lemme know if you need me to clarify anything or if you have any other questions 🫶🏼also tag me! Would love to read it

some dc fic recs (with the occasional commentary; also the inclusion of commentary or not is not indicative of the quality. know that i deeply enjoy everything here but some stuff i can’t help but talk about)

there’s an endless road to discover by zahri— centers on dick & tim; short and sweet with these absolute goofs

black out days by yutro — centers on talia & jason (with some damian on the side; all platonic btw)! you all know i am the number one talia truther and this fic sees that to completion. also includes a new phrase that i love and that is ‘biblically accurate talia’ (and boy is it biblically accurate)

commitment to the tabloids by hamethyst — need an account to read this one but it’s tim/tam (and also technically tim & tam?), a pairing i am very very very fond of. this one is where he does not Act A Fool. i love it so much and i love how they’re both characterized here. we could’ve had So Much….

verdant by cerusee — centers on talia & jason & co in an au if she took him home after restoring his mind. i think i’ve spoken about it but it’s genuinely one of my favorite fics ever (if not the favorite) and a fantastic au (with a little bit of tim bashing but it’s not undeserved i think; ok editing to add it’s maybe not bashing but that’s just How He Is. which is much better put i think)

the scientific method by an orphaned account — focuses on duke and the development/discovery of his powers, as well as him finding his footing at the manor (although i guess it can also just be considered a batfam fic? but it centers on him. as it should be) very lovely to read
