In Balkan mythology, Ala is a giant dragon or a winged snake that represents chaos. She brings storms, disease, floods, hurricanes, but she can also be a protector and even a friend of humans.

Her appearance varies wildly from one place to another. She sometimes has multiple heads, but usually not. She is said to be so large that when she flies and her head is above the clouds, her tail can drag on the ground behind her. Her wings can cover the entire sky.

Ala is a shapeshifter and she has no gender. She can take a form of a man or a woman or an animal or even an object. She is also bisexual, because all Slavic dragons are horny for humans, but since Ala is a shapeshifter on top of that, she enjoys both girls and boys.

In the art I made, she's holding her signature giant spoon and she's eating the Moon. Lunar phases and lunar eclipse are caused by her trying to eat the Moon, according to the myths. If she ever succeeded in that, the world would come to an end because Sun would die from grief if he lost his companion. (BTW both Sun and Moon are male in Balkan Slavic mythology, so 🏳️‍🌈?)

Hope you like this, have a nice day :)

Ink October day 3: Sophistry

An argument that seems plausible, but is fallacious or misleading, especially one devised deliberately to be so.

My thoughts on the Aventurine drama

I've been inactive for a while, I was (still am) busy in real life but coming back online to post and seeing discourse about a newly crowned favorite character is disheartening. Even more so, that people are harassing other writers over a drama I feel is overblown.

I have thoughts regarding it but I'm unsure if my opinion would be appreciated. But if you'd like to peacefully talk it out with me, I'd be happy to lend an ear. I'd like to hear both sides, as meager as my opinion may be.

Oh boy, here we go.

Aventurine is a character, a fictional being born to entertain the players. He is not real. He can not be offended by what you create of him. There is no point getting upset on the behalf of a character and prioritizing fiction over a person who does actually exist.

If we do want to condemn slavery fics, why not also cancel slave reader fics? Or ones that include things such as dead dove (including yanderes in general) fics because those topics are equally terrible to condone and write about from that point of view. Or how about other characters that have similar topics in their lore. Should those also be canceled too?

*There are also folks who make problematic pieces to help cope with their own trauma. Does that mean they should be canceled too? (On that note: making a piece that holds problematic content does not always mean the person condones it in real life. Fiction is fiction for a reason.)

In the end, I think everyone can have their own opinions, but I would like to say that your opinions do not justify terrible actions. Just because you disagree with something does not justify you bullying someone into deleting one of their works, whether it is art or writing or anything else, I do not think that is justifiable. Harassing someone or calling people to harass them is not right either.

*If you did disagree with it, why not message the author about it instead of making accusatory posts? Even when done with good intentions, all it does is cause harm when it's practically inviting people to go harass someone over a fanfiction. A very mild fanfiction at that.

If you disagree with a piece, cool. That's your opinion. Just don't interact with it then. Block that creator or that tag or whatever it is that led you there. Or if you're curious, ask that creator.

Also, to reiterate, in my opinion, fiction is still just fiction. Especially when it's a fanfiction about a fictional character. Yes, his canon lore exists, but people can use that basis in fanfiction, something that will inherently warp canon because we are not the original writers and can not capture him in the exact way he was created. In case that doesn't make sense: Fanfiction does not have to comply with the original lore. Also since some of you seem to be forgetting: fiction does not mirror real life.

If you are truly that concerned over sensitive topics like that, directing that energy towards projects that involve such topics in real life would be much better than attacking people on the internet.

I feel it closing in

With every ping of my phone

Another friend wanting to talk

Or hang out

Or grab drinks

And I get it, this is what we do now

As a culture

This is how we "society"

But my introvert ass wants bed and a book

And I don't want to talk

Or be friends

Or exist

For a couple of months at least

God, I think I miss 2020

[stellarumm00]

remember

i don't remember much.

middle school was a blur for me.

the days, months, years all meld together.

but i remember when i started to feel sad.

and then i remember you.

i remember when we watched a show together,

skipping class to sit in the bleachers.

do you remember that?

i remember when you jumped from one staircase to another.

i was terrified you'd get hurt,

but you didn't.

do you remember?

i remember how your brown eyes looked in the sunlight.

that small hint of yellow around the middle.

remember?

i know now that i loved you then.

i don't remember much of my freshman year.

but i remember you.

and i loved you

long before i remembered.
