I'd discovered, after a lot of extreme apprehension about what spoons to use, that if you do something incorrect at table with a certain arrogance, as if you knew perfectly well you were doing it properly, you can get away with it and nobody will think you are bad-mannered or poorly brought up. They will think you are original and very witty.

Good Saturday, y’all.
Topic of today’s rant: PEOPLE PRINTING AND SELLING FANFIC & GENERAL FANDOM ETIQUETTE
Profiting from fanfic will ruin it for everyone.
I want all of you who gift us your stories to be safe from lawsuits and beware that your content might be stolen.
Not to be on a soapbox and preaching to the choir but here are.
There are many authors pulling their work off AO3 because people acting on bad faith are printing and binding fics to sell on etsy thus infringing copyright laws. Fanfic has always been a grey area and we are allowed to exist in this grey area because we are not profiting from it. The minute money is exchanged, every party involved is breaking the law.
Why am I complaining about this yet again? Because we might be deprived from enjoying fanfic with the freedom we currently have because the fanfic authors will fear getting sued. If third parties are stealing our work and selling it, publishers and studios won’t care to know who sold it. It is your handle (thus IP address) on the sold fanfic. Because, get this, they are doing downloads straight from ao3 with your usernames.

Manacled is being pulled from ao3 because the author will publish it as a book. People are putting the book at risk by selling printed versions of it on Etsy.
Tumblr media
I believe many of us who fall on the 20 years of reading fanfic side rather than on the 20 year olds reading fanfic will remember the Anne Rice days. These are not fully over because her son is carrying on the legacy of suing everyone who writes fanfic of her work. And if I may say, she didn’t invent vampires and should’ve taken many seats. I digress.
I am not sure of the levels of awareness within this community and to what extent it can affect all of us. TikTok is a massive contributor to this problem (as it is to many other problems. Again, I digress) since booktok and the binding folks discovered ao3.
You might think, I only post on tumblr so my content is safe. Well, they are finding their way here too. They cringe because tumblr is for old people but they still make their way here with their bad manners and pillaging behaviour.
I want all of you who gift your stories to be safe, lawsuit free, not lose your content and not be afraid of sharing.
I wish I had a definitive solution to this problem but I can only think of small actions:
report the etsy accounts selling fanfic/fanfic commissions,
report the TikTok accounts selling binding for fanfic work,
go back to the days of putting disclaimers on your notes that you don’t own the characters and you are not profiting from the story.
Tagging some authors* here for visibility so you can cascade to more people. Absolutely no pressure tag.

HELP IM SO SKRRY BUT I NEED TO REQUEST ANOTHER KAI AZER X PAEDYN GRAY WITH THEIR DAUGHGER BC OH MY LORF THAT WAS ADORABLE
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
title: princess kai
pairing: kai azer x paedyn gray x (oc) daughter
synopsis: kai and his daughter avena, are having a tea party when paedyn comes home
warnings:
a/n: thanks for reading 🤍🤍
tag list: @heartwithsimplenotes @lxvebelle @whatsamongus @zaraaaabear @tornqdowarnings @emelia07 @xoxo-vee @userxs-blog
Kai Azer was a man who was known to be respected, worshipped and feared throughout all of Ilya. His talent with any weapon was impeccable, his ability to wield any power was undeniable. He was incredibly skilled with a blade, so much so if you were in a fight and he had one, you were as good as dead. But right now the brave, the dangerous, the daring Kai Azer was sat on the floor, cross-legged, holding a plastic pink teacup with his pinky finger stuck out.
“Daddy!” Avena groans, “you’re doing it all wrong!”
She exaggerates the word all so much, she rolls her head all the way back and flops down into the purple play table. They were currently deep within a tea party that Kai was apparently not too good at.
He bites back his laugh, “what am I doing wrong baby?”
“You’re supposed to wait and pick up your teacup after I’ve poured the tea!” she tells him, clearly exasperated at her dad’s horrible pretend tea party etiquette, “Obviously!”
“Oh sorry,” he says quickly, placing the cup back on the saucer, “we’ll pretend that didn’t happen,”
“I’ll have to forgive you for that mistake but one more and I will get very mad at you!” Avena warns him with a pointed stare that makes Kai’s heart just melt.
“Oh yeah?” he asks, grinning.
He loved his daughter’s feisty side. It reminded him so much of Paedyn. Avena was bold and daring and not afraid to tell someone that they were doing it wrong. She had that fierce look in her bright eyes.
“Yep!” she nods, folding her arms, “I will get so mad that I’ll get mommy to team up with me and then we’ll get… revenge!”
He tries to look serious, “okay Ave, I won’t make any more mistakes.”
“Good!” she smiles as she gets up and grabs the teapot. She walks beside him and begins to pour imaginary tea into his cup and then continues around the whole table until all of her stuffed animals, Kai and herself had something to ‘drink’.
“Can I drink my tea now?” he asks her.
“Not until I take the first sip,” she explains, “because I’m the one hosting this tea party after all.”
She slowly lifts her cup and takes a sip of invisible tea, grinning widely as she places the cup back down.
“Tasty?” Kai asks her, an eyebrow raised.
“It’s delicious,” Avena beams, taking a second sip.
“Better than Gail’s?” he challenges.
“No one’s is better than Gail’s!” she exclaims, with her little mouth in an ‘o’ shape, looking offended he even asked.
“I agree with you there Ave,” he winks.
“Taste the tea now daddy,” she urges him.
Kai takes the cup to his lips, pinky extended of course, and acts out drinkingthe non-existent liquid.
“This is too strong!” he announces, pretending to spit it out.
Avena laughs, the sweet sound melodic to her father’s ears. Not that she was aware of course. She was still in that child state of obliviousness but he loved it.
She rushes up excitedly, “Oooo let me get you the milk!”
She takes a plastic blue jug and carries it over carefully, as if it actually contained some substance. Then she tips some nothingness into his cup. Kai slowly lifts the cup to his lips for a second time and pretends to taste it. He looks into the air, with a finger on his chin, exaggerating being deep in thought.
“Hmmmm better,” he tells her, “but it’s a little bitter.”
“Do you want honey or sugar to sweeten it?” she asks, eyeing both plastics on the table.
“How about both?” he suggests.
“No!” she giggles, “don’t be silly daddy, you can’t have both! All your teeth are gonna fall out then.”
“Uh-huh and who told you that baby?” he asks her.
“Mommy did,” she explains, “and mommy is always right.”
Kai smiles softly and tucks a chunk of silver hair behind her ear. She was growing up so fast. Every single day she was getting that little bit older, that little bit more independent. It reminded Kai that one day she wasn’t going to be this small anymore, she wouldn’t stay his little Avena forever.
“Okay then, I’ll just take the sugar,” he says, glossy eyed suddenly.
Avena grabs the fake sugar pot and scoops emptiness into his cup. Blinking back the water in his eyes and reeling himself back to the present Kai takes the deciding sip.
“How’s that?” Avena asks him.
“Mmmmm much better,” he nods, “this is a lovely cup of tea.”
“Why thank you!” she grins.
He pulls her onto his lap, “you make the best tea in all the land, you know that?”
“Thank you daddy,” she murmurs, reaching up to take some of his curls into her hand to play with. She softly teases them rhythmically.
“Do you like my hair?” Kai asks gently, curious.
“Hmmmm,” she hums in reply, “it’s so soft and curly.”
He smiles silently, in these past few years he seemed to be doing that a lot more often, “you’ve got some of my curls, you know.”
“I know and I love them sooooo much,” she grins, now taking her hands and running them through her loose silver ringlets.
Kai looks down at his daughter, his world is in his arms. How could one small person mean so much? He wanted to just keep her like this forever, his tiny little girl who loved to play dress up. He didn’t want her to see what the real world could be like, the horror of mankind. When she’s been born, Kai had been petrified he’d end up like his father. Each and every day he strived to be the opposite, he wanted Avena to always feel loved, wanted, safe, cared for. Never the hopeless, inferior pressurised mess of emotions that he grew up with.
“You know I love you for always and forever Ave?” Kai murmurs.
“You always say that to me,” she notes, her pretty blue eyes connecting with his dark grey ones.
“It’s because it’s true,” he shrugs.
“Well I love you even more than that,” Avena decides.
Kai chuckles a little and shake his head, “it’s not possible baby.”
“How do you know?” she asks, eyebrows pinched in confusion. For a split second, in a minuscule flash of a moment, the way her face was contorted made her look just like Kitt. Kai’s heart twists an an awkward angle and thick knot forming.
“Because I just know,” he murmurs, his brothers face etched into his mind, “should we get back to our tea party then?”
He needs a distraction, he needs to focus on his daughter, he needs the knot in his chest to loosen.
Avena is quick to compose herself back into ‘tea party’ mode, she brushes her dress off and walks around the table, “now before we have anything to eat there is something very important we have to do,”
“What?” Kai asks her.
“We have to get dressed!” she announces, cupping her hands together.
He looks down at his clothes, “I am dressed baby.”
“No you’re not,” she exclaims, “you need your princess dress!”
He nearly chokes on his imaginary tea, “My princess dress? But I’m not a princess.”
“Yes you are,” she says, stubbornly.
“No I’m not,” he insists.
“Well then pretend,” she tells him, with a delicate shrug.
“But I don’t want to be a princess,” Kai says. Sometimes he wondered who the five year old was of the two of them.
“No dad,” she snaps, “you have to be a princess too.”
“Why?”
“Because it’s two princesses at a tea party, that’s the story,” Avena explains, with a tone to make it clear that her decision would not change.
“Can’t I be a prince or a dragon,” Kai asks, not liking the idea of wearing a dress.
“No, you’re being a princess,” she shakes her head stubbornly, staring at him wide eyed, like she was waiting for him to crack under the pressure.
He did. “Fine I’ll be a princess,” he grumbles.
“Yay!” She smiles, jumping up and down as she claps her hand together, “I have a dress especially picked out for you,”
“Honey, if it’s one of yours I don’t think it’s going to fit me,” he sighs, biting back a small laugh.
“No silly!” Avena giggles, shaking her head, “it’s one of the ones mommy never ever wears.”
“I don’t think that will fit me either,” Kai says, recalling that his wife is a lot shorter, slimmer and smaller than him.
“I think it will, so you have to try it on,” she decides, channelling her sassy side, “or I’ll get mad! And do you remember what I said about when I get mad?”
“Yes baby, I do,” he chuckles.
“So you’ll try it on?” she asks, her big round ocean eyes sparkling.
Kai sighs, how could he say no, “yes I’ll try it.”
Five minutes later Kai found himself in a velvety pink dress that barely reached his ankles. The neckline had to be severely stretched to fit across his chest and his arm muscles bulged from the fabric that clung over them desperately, like a second skin. He looked ridiculous and he was very aware, but he would hate to see that disappointed look on Avena’s sweet face. It was a workout to get it on. Obviously, Kai didn’t have the physique of a woman, hence all the proportions of the dress were off. But he was just going to have to grin and bear it. As long as his baby was happy, that’s all that mattered.
“Are you ready yet Daddy?” she calls out.
“Yes,” he grits through his teeth, trying to sound cheerful.
“Come out and show me then!”
Kai steps back into the room, draped in the pink ill-fitting fabric. Avena’s eyes light up with joy, a dazzling azure. Immediately any reluctance towards the dress was forgotten and it became all worth it.
“Can you do a twirl please?” she asks, practically buzzing with excitement.
He obliges, spinning around, the skirt flowing up a little.
“Oh you look so beautiful,” Avena squeals, clasping her hands to her heart.
“Not as beautiful as you,” he says, approaching her.
“But I’m not even dressed up yet,” she laughs gently.
“You don’t need to be,” he tells her, lifting Avena up into his arms, “you are beautiful all on your own.”
“Thank you,” she giggles, kissing the tip of his nose.
“You’re welcome,” he smiles, setting her down again. She picks up a princess dress of her own and holds it up to him.
“Daddy can you help me?” she asks him, as she takes off her top and disguards it on the floor.
“Arms up baby,” Kai says, bunching up the dress in his hands so it would perfectly slip on.
She stretches her little arms over her head as high as she can and he tentatively puts the dress on her, pulling it down so it met the floor. He then smoothes down the skirt carefully for her.
“Hang on Avena, let me untwist your straps,” he says gently, as she tries to get back to the tea party.
She holds still and turns around as he carefully readjusts her straps so they’re no longer twisted around each other.
“There you go,” he says.
“Thank you daddy,” she smiles, standing on her tiptoes and kissing his cheek.
“You’re welcome baby,” he replies.
She spins around, admiring her dress. The pink silk bright and bold, “we’re matching!”
“We are!” he exclaims, mirroring her energy.
“I love it,” she tells him, over annunciating every letter of the word ‘love’.
He nods in agreement, “me too.”
“Okay back to the party now,” she says, with a serious look on her
Kai nods again and follows her back to the table, resuming his seat between a stuffed unicorn and some sort of multicoloured fox.
“Sorry everyone,” Avena says, looking around at her stuffed animals, “we just needed an outfit change before dessert.”
“What is dessert?” he asks her.
“It’s a surprise,” she tells him, a finger to her lips.
Kai had a feeling her knew what that surprise was. Just like himself and Pae, Avena was addicted to Sticky Buns. It must run in the genes. He was pretty sure she loved them more than him sometimes, not that he’d blame her. Sticky Buns were heavenly.
“Okay then,” he replies.
“I’m going to go and get our surprise dessert,” she tells him, “you wait here.”
Avena rushes off before Kai can even reply, too overcome by excitement to wait for a response. He awkwardly sits there, the plastic eyes of various stuffed animals staring at him in judgment.
“You think you could wear this better?” he mutters bitterly at the dog plushie opposite him.
It doesn’t respond. Obviously. It just continues to stare into Kai’s soul. He doesn’t break eye contact until soft laugh cuts him out of his intense staring contest.
“Now I know why I married you,” Paedyn smirks, walking in, “I am so turned on right now.”
She saunters in, looking him up and down, amusement carved into her every feature.
“Oh shut up,” he snaps, cheeks heated and flushed.
“No seriously,” she laughs, “did I ever tell you that pink is so your colour?”
Kai stares at her from the corner of his eye, a stormy expression on his face in a refusal to speak.
“Oh don’t go all moody,” she pouts, crouching beside him.
“I am not moody,” he grumbles, not meeting her eyes.
“Moody is part of your personality, you can’t help it,” she says with a graceful shrug.
He sighs, running hand through his hair, “did you come home just to attack me?”
“Pretty much, yeah,” she replies, “but finding you like this made it even better.”
“You’re never going to let me forget this are you?” he groans, slumping down onto the table.
“I haven’t got the camera out yet,” she flashes a grin.
He’s suddenly up and alarmed, staring her dead in the eye with panic swimming across his face, “you better not.”
“Oh I definitely am,” she says, throwing her head back with a cruel giggle.
“Pae, I swear to-“
She cuts him off quickly, softly pressing her lips onto his. He kisses back, begging her for more but she breaks away ensuring they wouldn’t get too carried away.
“She has you wrapped her little finger and it’s adorable,” Paedyn smiles, cupping her husbands face in her palms.
“She really does,” he sighs, “I physically can’t say no to that cute face, I mean have you seen her eyes?”
“They’re gorgeous,” she hums in reply.
“They’re yours,” Kai murmurs, staring into Paedyn’s perfect oceans of blue. Sometimes he really thinks he drowns in her eyes, if he stares for too long he finds it hard to catch his breath.
She blushes a deep scarlet, the red bold against her pale skin and silver hair.
“Oooo mommy you’re home!” Avena exclaims, as she reappears back in the room with an empty tray in her hands.
She runs through the doorway, disguarding the tray and immediately throws her arms around her mom, squeezing her as tight as she could.
“Hey baby,” Paedyn beams, scooping Avena up into her arms and twirling her around, “how’s your day with daddy been?”
“Good,” she says enthusiastically, full of life, full of light and full of energy, “we had lots of fun.”
“I like his dress,” she mentions, earning her a glare from her husband.
“I picked it out,” Avena tells her, pride in her voice, “especially for him!”
“You have good taste sweetie,” she praises her, kissing her cheek.
“Now you can play too mommy,” she beams.
“Me?” Paedyn asks.
“Yes! We can be three princesses now!” Avena grins excitedly, “mommy go put on one of those dresses you never wear because you think they’re too fancy.”
She looks at her daughter and narrows her eyes slightly, hands on her hips, “how do you know I think they’re too fancy?”
“I heard you say it to daddy,” she shrugs, the innocence rolling from her like a waterfall.
“Ave that’s called eavesdropping,” Kai says.
“Huh?”
“When you listen to other people’s conversations,” he explains, “that’s called eavesdropping.”
“Is that bad?” she asks, concerned.
“Sometimes,” he shrugs.
Paedyn shoots him a dark look and he quickly fixes his answer.
“It is not very polite to do that and you shouldn’t,” he adds on, satisfying his wife.
“Oh, I’m sorry,” Avena says, her guilt displayed on her face.
“You didn’t know Ave,” Kai tells her softly, “it’s okay. But now you do know for next time.”
“Right,” she nods determinedly.
“I’ll get into my dress and meet you two in a moment,” Paedyn says.
“Good! That gives me a chance to start on daddy’s make up,” Avena giggles, a spring in her step as she glides towards her dad.
“Daddy doesn’t want makeup!” Kai says urgently, holding his hands in front of his face.
“You’re right,” she nods, sending a wave of relief over him as he lowers his hands, “daddy doesn’t want any make up, but the second princess does and you’re the second princess!”
“I don’t think she does,” he shakes his head.
“Have fun,” Paedyn winks at him, her face angled towards his, her voice low enough so only he could hear her.
“More like good luck,” he mutters, leaning forwards and planting a sweet kiss on her lips.
“Daddy!” Avena scolds, “No kissing mommy, you’re a princess remember!”
“And a princess can’t kiss mommy?” he raised an eyebrow.
“No. Mommy is only allowed to kiss me and daddy,” she says, her face scrunched up. It was hard to take someone seriously when they were so unintentionally adorable, “and right now you’re not daddy, so no kisses!”
“Okay, okay, okay,” he laughs.
“She’s so bossy,” Paedyn murmurs.
“Wonder where she gets it from,” he says, under his breath.
She glares at him slaps his arm. He bites back a complaint.
“Mommy why did you just slap daddy?” Avena exclaims, shock rippling across her features, “that’s not nice!”
“Yeah mommy!” Kai sneers, arm folded, looking at Paedyn, “that’s not nice,”
“Daddy was being very annoying, sweetie,” she explains.
“But you told me I should never slap anyone,” her daughter reminds her.
“I did, didn’t I?” she sighs, “I’ll apologise to daddy later.”
“Okay but you have to say you’re sorry,” she says.
“I will,” Paedyn tells her.
“Okay,” she nods, walking over to the stray that had been strewn across the room as she had noticed her mom.
“Are you going to say sorry mommy?” Kai mocks, out of his daughter’s earshot, in an attempt to piss his wife of further.
Paedyn death stares him and waits until Avena’s back is tuned, then she sharply elbows her husband’s rib. Hard. He takes a sharp breath in and suppresses a groan. That might bruise tomorrow.
“That stopped smirking,” she rolls her eyes.
“Used and abused,” he shakes his head.
“Cry about it,” Paedyn shrugs delicately as she walks out.
“I love you too!” he calls out after her.
a/n: thanks for your request!! It was so much fun to write 🤍🤍 I hope you enjoyed

Clarification, Apologies,A word for the community, and Blog Updates..
On 31st of July, around a week ago, A situation involving some users, myself included, happened, causing me to go on a temporary hiatus for a week, as it was handled indelicately and caused a lot of harm to users who never asked to be a part of it.
For the sake of privacy and not stirring the pot again, I will not name any of the users.
I should clarify that English is not my first language, so there might be grammatical mistakes in this.
TLDR: I was careless and I reblogged from NSFW blogs not knowing they were NSFW blogs, causing harassment to other members of the community. I have deleted these reblogs and I decided to not reblog anything on this blog for the safety of everyone.
Elaboration under break:
It started when an user, who I will not name, made a callout post about me. They screenshotted reblogs I made, and while I still believe that that user fully intended to cause drama instead of addressing any real issue, they were right in calling my mistakes out.
Throughout several months, I have reblogged from NSFW accs, even though I have a bold NSFW DNI on the top of my blog. I have also reblogged from an MDNI account multiple times despite having minors on my blog, endangering both parties.
I have since blocked these accounts and deleted these reblogs. However,that doesn't undo the damage I already did.
I know I have problems with many social skills, like social cues and etiquette. I do have Autism and ADHD after all. This led to, when I was reblogging things that I found cool, me accidentally missing many of the signs that most would have seen. I didn't realize what was happening until someone told me.
At the moment of the discourse, this blog had 194 followers (202 as I write this). In any other social media platform, this number means you're basically invisible, and so that's the logic I went with. I thought nobody saw this blog so I was lenient with my content, treating this blog as my personal shitposting place.
However, after this discourse,I realized that I am being seen on Tumblr. That unfortunately was at the cost of accidentally hurting innocent users who never asked to be a part of this, along with ruining my mental health for a while.
There have been kind hearted users who defended me, and users who told me that I am being looked up to and that I am a well respected member of the community, which is something I will remember for the rest of my life.
What I am trying to say is, I fucked up. Badly. Yet despite that, the community has given me a second chance, proven by the fact that I wasn't blocked or unfollowed (Quite the opposite actually)
I now understand the responsibility that I have and that I need to be very careful with what I post, especially since I have made the choice to let minors interact with this blog. I now understand I must look after them because of that.
I apologize so much for everyone that has been hurt by this. I won't ask for forgiveness. I only ask that everyone knows that I have acknowledged my mistakes and I promise to better myself in the future.
I am a human and I make mistakes, please don't ever be afraid to tell me when I do something wrong. (Tell me, by messaging or commenting. Please not by making a call out post on me, since this has proven to hurt more than help others.)
I made this blog to be a safe place to enjoy a certain trope without getting hurt, and I want to live up to that. For the safety of everyone, me included, I will make some changes to this blog.
Changes:
1: No more reblogs
This blog was handled indelicately, and unprofessionally, and I decided that I will change that, I will make this blog into an Art/Writing blog first and foremost, With prompt posts being a second priority.
The only exception to this will be fanworks or fanfics or things that are directly made for me/things I am mentioned in, I will tag them accordingly depending on content.
2: This blog is now +16
Yes, I interacted with users younger than 16 before, Yes,I have followers who are less than 16. I have thought about it deeply and I realized that for the sake of not hurting anyone, and if I wanted to be more comfortable around this blog, then I need to keep people who are slightly closer to my age range, Instead of censoring myself,
that's because I have taken a liking to (Nonsexual) fatal vore and gore, I want to make similar content in the future, as well as other darker topics.
I will not block anyone who is younger than 16, but I will not directly interact with you anymore, even if I'm not responsible for your actions, it's just to be safe.
Now I need to make some things clear:
I am not a minor so I can interact with MDNI blogs and they can interact if they wish to. As long as they're SFW
But, again, I will not reblog from them for the safety of those who are minors following my blog.
Vore is nonsexual for me and I don't want my work to be sexualised, especially because I depict myself in it.
I have absolutely nothing against people who are into it sexually, I just don't want my work in these circles.
I can't control how my work is perceived and where it goes, however my blog is SFW (In the sense that there's nothing graphic or sexual on it), meant for people who are also interested in that content, and so I don't want to see people who think it's “hot” here.
I am not responsible for anyone's actions on this blog, I am not responsible for people who find my content weird or sexual or whatever,I am not responsible for the minors on this blog, I am not responsible for my mutuals, I am only responsible for my own actions.
This community has been extremely supportive of me, and there have been people who comforted me during this whole situation, without them I probably would've deleted my blog from sheer panic.
I owe these people my life, thank you so much for being on my side.
I hope that one day, my blog can be a source of comfort too.
Thank you for reading and I hope you guys have a wonderful day!

I keep seeing blogs I followed in my good omens days disavowing Niel Gaimen, but none saying what happened, or of they do in vague enough terms with no sources that it just reads like any callout post. Do you know what the fuck is happening, if people are just throwing about the words abuse and sexual misconducts as usual or if there's a real incident?
I know they went after Michael Sheen because of the age-gap with his then girlfriend, so it wouldn't be new for the fandom to spin something, but I don't wan my hope for it to all be nothing and blow over to bias me either.
--
Late to the party, eh? Scroll back through my blog. We went into it a couple of times. Gaiman seems to have a long history of creeping on younger women, bad BDSM etiquette, and, yes, rape.

i am a certified yapper in your blog 😔/lh
can confirm that soul intent is a fanon/headcanon thing! information about monster souls in canon is not much at all. i guess people developed their own ideas about how souls work, though i suspect handplates au pretty much popularized the idea of soul intent magic and such.
i do find that idea neat so i often play with it, especially intent magic. it's just such a fun idea that ties in LV and battle mechanics too in a non-battle scenario. i headcanon that monster souls are intrinsically sensitive to magic and psyche, so magic can be performed consciously or subconsciously, and it's really important for magic users to take care of their mental state to properly channel and use their magic (my headcanon as to why killer is less reliant on magic abilities - he's somewhat disconnected from his soul).
and like, i like the idea that souls can emit a "magic field", i guess? it's not a thing souls do all the time, it's more of a learned technique that broadcasts to people your intentions and transforms your soul engagements into appropriate settings (like a magic/soul etiquette thing, idk if i'm making any sense lol). in battles, the field forms as a bullet board/battle environment. in healing and intimate settings, the field forms as a soothing barrier to calm people. i like the idea of magic fields overlapping with each other. imagine the feedback sent between each other - it's like a mind-meld of sorts. i think that's the sort of intimacy killer would enjoy, this positive feedback loop he has with color and knowing what color is feeling and answering back without saying a word. the psychological, the emotional, hgnhhhh. you can see how this can translate in a more... let's say, intimate encounter.
~ crowshipping anon
a more intimate encounter you say? 👀 i can hear take me to church or talk by Hozier going off rn /j
but no seriously, I’ve never heard of anything like this before in headcanons and fic. It seems so interesting. the idea of a sorta mind meld during those more healing and comforting moments does seem like it’d be a very soothing experience, cant help but wonder how it’d feel for both parties to experience. i wonder what killers exact experience with it could be?
what if something that was twisted too, or it is one of those things that remained untainted? perhaps because killer either never has experienced like it, or isnt sure if he can trust that he has before?
i wonder what colors experiences with it could’ve been. it doesn’t seem to hold the same weight and consequences that absorbing the soul would, so that erases his hang ups with that idea—fear of losing himself, fear that killers intentions towards him and their relationship might be less genuine and deliberately chosing to be with color and perhaps something born from a need for control or obsession or unhealthy devotion and fear of loss—and now moreso just a genuine expression of connection and intimacy. something color has also been without for a long time, something that was taken from him.
would love to hear people’s opinions on this.

I actually do want to make it clear I give my support and am truly thankful to the dark fic authors who properly tag their works. It’s saved me from a couple jump scares and that is important/shows care. it’s like the lil viewers discretion/ratings on movies, since those are legally required by the MPA/FCC irl content warnings and tagging shows a level of respect in fandom space that should be acknowledged.
I still do have thoughts about some very specific content and lack of media awareness it seems a LOT of readers are having in fandom and not just towards dark fics but that’s another post. This one is to remind internet etiquette that should be universally acknowledged, if a writer has done their job of tagging/warning it’s personal liability and since there is no official complaints center for shit like that rule of thumb is to dougie off their section of the internet asap. It’s similar in kink negotiations all parties are meant to be aware of possible unwarranted scenes and you have the right to stop the action/scene at any time.
This is also a gentler reminder to please tag fics for filtering not just on your blog because there’s been a couple times tags I know I have filtered don’t hold strong when a post is untagged by someone I’m following.

☽ Welcome to the Temple of Vengeance! Greatest of the Great Gods, Khonshu, presiding. ☾
☽ Inbox: Open ☾
[Indie RP/Ask blog for Khonshu from the MCU's Moon Knight. Set after the show ends by default, but also open to other verses. Open for questions or threads! More info on the blog, or under the cut for mobile users.]
Updated: 11/03/24
Laws of the Temple
☽ BASICS ☾
- MUN STUFF: My name's Kew! She/they, well over 21. No triggers. I don't have DID, any attempt to portray it is based on the show/comics.
- MINORS BE WARNED: I'm not going to be super strict about weeding out minors since I don't expect things to get NSFW around here, but the show Khonshu is from does explore some darker themes for a TV-14 show. I dunno. You've been warned.
- GENERAL RP ETIQUETTE APPLIES: Don't make actions for my character without asking, don't assume past relationships/deep history without asking, don't read my character's mind (unless your character is a telepath, and even then I don't know if that works on gods), etc. - GENERAL CONTENT WARNING FOR: Descriptions of violence, religious stuff, swearing, emotional manipulation, a.bleism (especially surrounding mental health stuff.) I’ll try to tag other things as they come up. - FEEL FREE TO REBLOG MEMES FROM ME. It actually helps me remember to send stuff out. You can also reblog art/headcanons, pretty much anything except RP threads if you're not the other party!
- NOT PRIVATE, BUT SELECTIVE: I sometimes don't follow big multimuses back since I have pretty strict tastes in fandoms, and I don't want to clog my dash with characters I don't know. That doesn't mean I don't want to roleplay with you though! As for selectivity, I reserve the right to say no if things just don't click writing-wise.
- SPOILERS FOR MOON KNIGHT EVERYWHERE. There will be untagged spoilers for both the comics and especially the show. I highly recommend watching the Moon Knight TV show if you haven’t seen it! It got me into comic books and made me interested in the MCU. - That said, I haven’t seen all of the content in the MCU, not even a third of it, so I’m sorry if I get any lore details wrong.
- KHONSHU IS AN ASSHOLE. Nothing he says reflects my real views about anything. If he’s mean to you, it doesn’t mean I don’t like you or you’ve done something wrong.
- FOR OTHER MARC/STEVEN/JAKE MUSES: By default, I'll play Khonshu like he's connected to your Marc/Steven/Jake. If you want it to be dimension-hopping shenanigans (which I'm super down to do, especially for ones more heavily based on the comics) you'll have to let me know! All these interactions will be on different verses, and I don't plan to have Khonshu be 'mains' with any muses.
- FIGHTS: With extremely rare exceptions, I'm just gonna say no to fight threads. Partly because Khonshu is incorporeal and really can't be hurt or hurt anyone else directly. Mostly because fighting other muses has always stressed me out. If it's something you really want to do, we can talk about it. (This doesn't mean your character can't attack Khonshu ever, it just means it probably won't work.)
☽ MUSE INFO ☾
Tumblr media
NAME: Khonshu OTHER NAMES: Chons, Bloody pigeon, Silly old bird (He accepts none of those) PRONOUNS: He/him HEIGHT: Varies, usually around 8-10 feet tall. WEIGHT: N/A (Incorporeal, like a ghost) AGE: Has existed since the dawn of time, so who knows.
- KHONSHU is the Egyptian god of the moon, vengeance, healing and time, among other smaller things. While he is enormously powerful in theory, he’s mostly unable to affect the physical world without use of a mortal AVATAR, dubbed his MOON KNIGHT. Those who agree to be his Avatar are granted superpowers and near-invulnerability, in exchange for agreeing to carry out his mission: Bringing vengeance against those who harm his travelers of the night.
- Khonshu is also somehow a billions-year-old grumpy baby who flips over trash cans when he doesn’t get his way.
- By default, Khonshu's current Avatar is JAKE LOCKLEY, and only Jake Lockley. But, he can also be played before the events of the show, when he (technically) has the triple threat of Jake Lockley, MARC SPECTOR, and STEVEN GRANT.
- Jake will make occasional cameos on this blog, but I wouldn't call this a dual muse. (You can request him in asks if you want.)
- Normally, only his Avatar (or Avatars of other gods) are capable of seeing/hearing Khonshu, but let’s say this blog is a holy space where he can answer your prayers questions. (In threads, we can always BS a reason your character can see Khonshu.)
- This Khonshu is HEAVILY BASED ON THE TV SHOW, which means he lacks a lot of the harsher history his comic book counterpart has. That said, as a god, he is aware of the multiverse and has at least a rough idea of what his counterparts are up to. You can ask about comic stuff, he just might have a different opinion.
- Some comic lore has been added/built upon, namely his fraught history with his father, AMON-RA. (This probably won’t come up much, but it does inform a lot of how I play the character.)

This is a weird question, but do you have advice on starting an ask blog for a character? Like how to get noticed and how to interact with other ask blogs? Is there specific etiquette? (Besides obviously not being a jerk) Asking you because of your great Narinder ask blog.
not weird at all, don't worry! i'm always happy to help however i can
also i might not be the best person to talk about this, the narinder askblog is only my third askblog, im still fairly new on this scene
MAKING A NEW BLOG
well, starting the blog is the easiest part, right? gather a few pictures that you like and personalize the way you like it best, the way that you think that fits the character!
for the intro post (and i really reccomend you having one, because not only it helps with making your blog look better and more organized, but also gives character and sets your boundaries), theres a few things that you can keep in mind
something that settles a personality for your character right at the top (could be a phrase, something they canonically said, maybe a picture? you name it!)
an about me section (what is the purpose of this blog? is it a roleplay blog, an askblog exclusively? who is this character? who are YOU?)
if your character is surrounded by sensitive topics or if you think that your blog could be surrounded by sensitive themes (gore, sexual themes, suicide themes, any phobias, etc.) it's good to have a few warnings in mind and put those on there for people to be aware
other than this, have fun personalizing it, maybe add a few extras, maybe songs, pictures, blinkies, anything! (i'll leave some useful resources at the bottom of this post *wink*)
now, of course, the hard part
INTERACTING AND PROPER ROLEPLAYING ETIQUETTE
this is something i personally love talking about because some younger/newbie roleplayers might not know, but there is in fact a roleplaying etiquette, but we're focusing on askblogs here, let's stay in our path and we'll get there eventually
i think my most asked question when it comes to this is how to be noticed by your community and how to interact with another bloggers
of course, the main part of being noticed is interacting! you have to understand that you can't build a flock out of just one bird, i know that this can be hard but shoot the bloggers you like an ask! send them dms, reblog posts, send asks, this is tumblr! our main feature IS sending asks!! this isnt twitter guys, come on, reblogging and sending asks is what makes we different than other social medias
if you're nervous about sending people an ask right away, you can send them a dm first, asking them if they are open to asks with other roleplayers, if theyre avaliable, theres no shame in this and i pinkie promise you that no one will hate you for this, no one is going to be mad at you
just remember, keep it respectful, keep your cool and dont push any boundaries
speaking of boundaries, we have to talk about
ROLEPLAYING ETIQUETTE
above all and everything that i say here, the MOST important part of roleplaying etiquette is that you HAVE to COMMUNICATE with your roleplaying partner
talk about your boundaries, what you do not enjoy doing in roleplay, the things you are open for, and listen to what they have to say too, this is not character AI where you can do anything for your own entertainment, we're dealing with people here, which is 100x more fun but also you gotta remember to keep it respectful
some basic grounds to stand on are:
Talk about your boundaries, and listen to your rp partner too (especially before doing anything that involves sensitive topics)
Talk about the theme of your roleplay, what you wish to do and what you want to avoid
Don't control someone else's characters for the sake of your lore (again, talk about it beforehand so you can know what works for both of you)
If we're talking about roleplay blogs, don't do anything major before talking to the parties that are involved and the parts that will be affected
Respect the other party's decision, as much as you want to be respected
Overall? Communicate and don't be a jerk
i think that summs it all up pretty well, but overall, if you guys have any questions i am more than glad to help!!
(psst, there's some resources under the cut! have fun!!)
How to make gradient text here
For blinkies and dividers!
More blinkies (and make your own blinkies easily)
HUGE pinterest folder full of graphic resources, dividers, icons, etc
Helpful unicode symbols for copypaste
Emojipedia, since sometimes emojis don't work well on tumblr
I'll update here once I find more, if anyone wants, I can make a full post only talking about resources for askblogs! (and you might as well want to talk to more experienced bloggers about this too! take care, have fun, bye!)

Ask Etiquette
HELLO sorry for the intimidating post lmao, I just need something to toss up on the masterpost because I feel bad deleting asks and then people will never really have an idea of why I never answered them
I get a ton of asks (usually anywhere from 10 - 20 a day!) and I'm not able to get to them all! I try to answer as many as possible but I'm still just one guy. So with that in mind, there are some sorts of asks I will simply not answer, and some 'requests' I have for people who send them in;
Please keep your asks short PLEASE try not to send me essays if you want a response; I still love reading them! But if you send me walls of text/analysis you are asking me to write a lot in response, which I'd rather spend on actually writing or designing cats. (On that note if you send a bunch of questions at once, the likelihood I respond goes down.)
Do not send me personal questions Listen... I'm a stranger on the internet. I'm overjoyed to see when my art connects with people and helps you realize things! But don't ask me sensitive questions like how to move out of your abusive parents' house!! PLEASE learn internet safety and get less comfortable with volunteering that kind of information to people you don't know!
Do not ask me personal questions you do not need to know what i study or where i work. get less comfortable asking these sorts of questions to queer people on the internet, especially when they talk openly about having previously been abused or stalked. (not that a person should even need to be as open about that as i am)
If I don't have a good response I won't answer Especially for suggestions I don't vibe with. I try to only say "No" if I have a particularly interesting "No" to talk about, if that makes sense! If I had to write a full explanation for every veto or idea I don't vibe with, this blog would be 90% what isn't in BB.
No AUs within the AU. "What if Hawkfrost survived his impalement? What if Firestar never joined? What if Tigerstar was never born?" Listen, buddy, you're creating an exponential distraction for possible ways the story could have gone and I'm not looking to write several essays for the literal hundreds of alternative ways Clan history could have been written. It takes you 5 words to ask "What if X never died" but it takes me paragraphs to answer. (This isn't about suggestions btw, I very specifically mean ppl asking hypotheticals for fun.)
Don't be rude. I feel like this should go without saying but please mind the parasocial gap. Especially if you're on anon, I don't know you, your backstory, or your cadence.
No "Fight Baiting" You're free to ask me to speak about fandom trends, or for my opinions on general ideas, character discussions, and popular arguments! But it crosses a line if you're linking someone's posts with their uncropped usernames, sharing unsolicited google docs, youtube videos, etc, with the intention of getting me to attack a third party. We can talk about ideas without making it a PVP battle.
And, lastly, CLANMEW ASKS!!
I make a hard effort to get to everyone!! Those are published on Clanmew Day (WHICH IS NOW JUST GOING TO BE THE 30TH OF EVERY MONTH SO THAT IT'S LESS CONFUSING) but PLEASE understand I get a ton of them.
As I write this I have more than 26 tabs open of unanswered Clanmew asks, a lot more in my inbox, and 9 already in the queue. So that you understand the sheer volume of asks I have there.
If I didn't get to you that month, chances are that I'll get to you on the next, but please understand why I ask for folks to not re-send asks
So here's Clanmew-specific requests;
PLEASE just try a translation on your own first! Don't just send me raw lists of OCs to translate, give it a go first using the Lexicon, just so I can see you tried. I will happily and gladly make more specific words for you when I see you try!
When you send OCs you've translated, ask me for a new word at the end if you didn't already in your list. Just in case I can't think of a witty comment or a word suggestion, you will help me a lot
Please try to format with lists like this one Folks will send me double or triple-indented lists and it will take up my entire screen when they've only sent like, 5 names. Remember that posts you send to me go on people's dashes, be considerate please You can open a list like this by starting a new paragraph, typing -, and then an immediate space. Hold Shift + Enter to indent without adding another bullet.
If you could put "Clanmew" somewhere in your ask, like even if you open up with "Clanmew: Here is my question blah blah," it would help immensely I physically can't get to every ask I receive on Clanmew Day, so if you have "Clanmew" in your ask somewhere, it makes it a lot easier for me to find it when I can finally answer! I really wish Tumblr had ways to sort asks, but currently, I've just gotta make due with Cntrl + F.

I don't understand the first reblog response at all. Clearly the OP was referring to people who are acting like "playground bullies" and getting in other peoples' faces with some degree of confrontation. That's a far cry from people who are just being critical or politely sharing negative opinions. Like it or not, many people on here do weaponize their opinions and use them to talk down on other people, and if they unironically say nonsense like, "I love being a hater" in response to people saying they need to leave them alone, that should be a huge red flag. Among all the others. To ward off naysayers, I'm writing that as someone who's been highly critical of properties I used to enjoy for years. But unlike the sorts that were described in the OP, I know better than to rain on other peoples' parades by directly inserting myself into their spaces. Honestly, people don't want to hear my criticism. A lot of criticism may be "correct" or "valid", sure, and I should be allowed to criticize media, but where in that statement does etiquette permit me to splash criticism all over unsuspecting parties and act like they're fools for not agreeing with me? If you have criticism, keep it to your blog or people who explicitly state they're open to discussion. Tag it like a reasonable fandom resident would. Don't act like people are stupid, or that you're better than everyone else, even if you think their opinions are stupid or misinformed. If people look at you and go, yikes, they're really on a crusade here and it's exhausting, you need to stop and think.
^ I agree with this!
I can write an essay with criticism for some movies, but I don't go around acting holier-than-you to other people? If I tell a rogue jerk with a superiority complex to tone it down because they're getting in people's faces with criticism, that's way different than being allergic to criticism of media. I'm not allergic to criticism, trust me lol I do a lot of it myself. What I'm actually allergic to? Is rogue jerks with superiority complexes who think it's okay to shove their takes in my face, and soapbox in my own inbox, without prompting when I just want to focus on the positive things.
Posting as a response to a previous problem.

POLICY REMINDERS
Hello everyone!
It's been a while since we've last made one of these, but as we've had some new members and, unrelated, we've been seeing some mistakes made repeatedly, we just wanted to make a post to touch on some of our policies and expectations!
MASTERLIST
When sending a message, make sure you include all information relevant to the type of ask you're sending! You can find all of the relevant information under the related sections of the forms page!
If you are reapplying with a character who had personal housing during their previous stay and would like them rehoused in that housing on acceptance, please make sure to include that request in your application ask along with the name of that housing and how many bedrooms it had.
If your account has yet to be accepted by the masterlist, please do not follow the masterlist! Wait until your acceptance message has been posted first.
APPLICATIONS
Please keep in mind that the ABOUT section on your application must be at least three sentences, and the PERSONALITY section must be at least ten (fifteen for original characters).
Make sure to include your CANON DOUBLE section as well as whether you do or do not permit them. If you need a refresher on what does or doesn't count as a canon double, please look at this post!
If you have two characters that you would like to apply on the same blog (like a character and their vocal animal companion), all you need to do is make two application pages and link them on your blog! Doing this will take two slots, and both characters will require their own unlocks however!
Just a reminder that we recently made a post about pets. Please make sure to give it a read over here!
GALAXY BLOG SUBMISSIONS
When ranking up, making a purchase, or claiming an event reward through the Galaxy blog, please make sure to include where on your blog we can find your threads and / or Star count. Usually you can just let us know what to add to the end of your URL to access that page (like "/tracker" for example).
If you are requesting an unlock for your character, please make sure to be as clear and concise as possible about what you'd like unlocked or upgraded! This lessens the chance of your ask being sent back for clarification!
TAGS
We have two tags for open posts (posts anyone can reply to): "#isola mini" and "#isola open"! The mini tag is for short opens ranging from a sentence to two paragraphs. Anything longer than that should be tagged with the open tag!
Rather than constantly adding new posts to the mini and open tags, we ask that you check out the tag yourself to see if anything that is already in there that you could reply to first. These tags only work if the posts placed inside actually get replies!
Likewise, posts in these tags should not be personal starters. If your starter is for a specific character, please tag them and don't place the thread in one of these tags.
We also have two tags for getting interest in threading: '#isola rp ad' and '#isola perm call'. The regular RP ad tag is self explanatory, where you like it and someone will make you a starter! The perm call tag is used when you're looking for specific or long term interactions that may be pre-plotted.
General etiquette for liking regular rp ads includes not liking over cap (if the post says they're capping it at 3 likes and it already has 3, don't like it) and not liking ads that are weeks old unless the mun has indicated they're okay with either!
OTHER
Please make sure that all NSFW content is both tagged and placed under a readmore. This not only includes sexual content, but also content that may be considered sensitive like gore.
You're only allowed to make three OOC posts in a single sixty minute period. This includes general OOC posts, RP ads, and image reblogs among others! The exceptions to this rule are during Meme Fridays, Mundays, or if the account is new and just setting up!
While we encourage member run events like dances and parties for the characters to attend between official group events, we ask that you ask the masterlist for permission first and only post this event after receiving permission for scheduling reasons! We could be running an event soon or another member might be running one, after all!
