#chronically ill rep

I’m posting a new chapter today so it’s time to tell you about my gay fae vampire romance Paintings of Sharper Thorns
Roselyn is the remnant of an old fairytale with a bitter ending. Cursed by her Fae king father’s power to never live but never die, she must survive on the blood of others, losing more of her connection to humanity each time.
Gabrielle, a traveling painter, has lived a life of struggle, and her health is no exception. When snowfall demands Gabrielle take shelter in Roselyn’s crumbling manor, they both learn the comfort that can be found in companionship- and mortality.
This is an ongoing serialization of book 2 of the Tales of Fallen Fae, a series of standalone stories that are love-letters to the arts with dark fairytale vibes and swoony gothic romances. Book 1, Songs for Dead Gods, is complete and available No, you don’t have to read it to understand Sharper Thorns, but it’s pretty cool so…
#my writing#writeblr#LPMSinclair books#gothic romance#if you wished the girl actually fell in love with the hot vampire and it wasn’t some weird SA thing#they’re so sweet together they make me cry#chronically ill rep#teaching her girlfriend to paint#it’s hot but in a swoony way#old fairytale vibes x1000

Perhaps a Hot Take: I don't have anything against JayVik as a ship, but the amount of people in the fandom who use it as an opportunity to be openly racist and misogynistic towards Mel and Sky, and to feminize/infantilize Viktor as a disabled man make it REALLY hard to enjoy
#literally over 90% of the viktor tag is currently jayvik content#hey. hey perhaps we should talk about the incredibly funny smart handsome determined inventor and engineer#who is a MAJOR figure in media for disabled/chronic illness rep#as... his own person?#also like... all the posts that go “oh yeah jayce never loved mel he was just confused”#guys newsflash theres a pretty interesting thing called bisexuality maybe you can look it up when you get your head out of your ass#i usually never involve myself in this shit but its driving me absolutely insane#sincerely your local bisexual chronic illness and cancer survivor :)))#arcane#arcane critical#viktor arcane#jayce talis#mel medarda#sky young

One of my biggest pet peeves in fiction is super ornate cane handles. That shit has gotta be so rough on the hands
#staring directly at kaz six of crows even though he is great rep#if you want to give a character a snazzy cane viktor arcane is a good example of it#soft handle at an angle for optimal support with ornamentation OUTSIDE of the handle#otherwise the blorbo with have real weird bruises on their palms#as an aside i want to steal his cane#cane#canes#cane user#mobility aids#mobility aid#c punk#cripple punk#actually disabled#disabled#disability#spoonie#chronic illness#chronic pain#chronically ill

why did it take make so long to realize the reason they made snakes nipples always hard in mgs4 was because he's wearing a compression shirt for chronic pain


#mgs4#metal gear#solid snake#old snake#compression gear helps with pain#it also helps with mobility!#im able to walk better/faster when wearing knee compression sleeves#so i imagine it would be the same for a shirt#itd relieve a lot of pain from snakes back#cryig#werners syndrome#chronic pain#chronic illness#disability#metal gear has amazing disability rep overall in my opinion!

ABSOLUTELY LOSING MY MIND AT THESE ORANGE BANNERS ON AMAZON FOR ARTIFICE & ACCESS I MIGHT CRY 😭 this whole anthology started because there were a bunch of people saying disabled people don’t belong in fantasy and this anthology immediately makes it into TWO top spots on Amazon because people are so excited about this anthology centered on disabled people in fantasy! 😭 I’m a little emotional, I need a sec
Um, preorders now open! definitely on amazon (paperback and ebook got listed separately for some reason) and B&N, trying to get it into some indie bookstores, and it sounds like booktopia in austrailia has it!

i really need yall to understand that we, the sonic fandom, have made up most of Maria's NIDS symptoms. in SA2 it pretty much doesn't fucking exist. it's not explored at all. it's just an answer to the question "what the hell is a little girl doing in a space station." it's a contrived plot device on a female character conceived to be fridged for a male one.
not to say you can't see yourself in her- lord knows i do- but what you feel connected to is characterization the *fandom* gave her, not the games. the hospital gowns, medication, medical equipment- none of that shit is ever shown in canon. we gave her those characteristics because we actually care about her.
shadow generations tries to rectify it- that was the FIRST TIME she was ACTUALLY SHOWN IN A HOSPITAL BED (and wheelchair) and i definitely appreciate the attempt, but it's definitely not enough to fix what had already been written for her.
#unfortunately her “chronic illness rep” is actually really fucking trash garbage. like in SA2 she might as well just be a healthy child.#maria robotnik#“you're no maria” actually fucking hit tbh#sonic 3#shadow generations#sonic x shadow generations#ableism tw#sonic the hedgehog#sonic#sth#sonic series#sonic fandom#shadow the hedgehog#sonic games#maria sonic#sonic maria#ark siblings#in sonic 3 she's more than just shadows tragic backstory which i hella appreciate.#im thankful it wasnt in the movie they would have fucked it up again for sure

If Max isn't in a wheelchair or some form of mobility aid in st 5 I might commit a violent crime.
We need the representation. We need to see flashbacks of her struggling to learn how to move around again and we need the present of her continuing to struggle but knowing what she's doing now.
We need disabled Max Mayfield
#whatever they do with her she needs to be disabled#if shes paralyzed or cant use her legs or needs forearm crutches to go anywhere i dont care#we need disabled max#also if i remember correctly didnt her eyes like explode#so blind rep too#i might honestly jate the creatoris forever of we dont get disabled max#disability#physical disability#chronic pain#max mayfield#stranger things#chronic illness#paralysis#blind rep

Tim I noticed a lot of indigenous patches on your jacket, are you Native?
Idk what my dad was 'cause I never knew him, but yeah my mom is (or... Was.. I guess..) Muscogee, the tribe native to the part of Alabama I'm in.
If I remember correctly she came to Alabama from Oklahoma (where a lot of Natives were displaced to in the 1800s) to "get back to her roots."
But yknow, I was separated from her in childhood (which tbh is upsettingly common for Native families) and I was raised in a very white very Catholic asylum so I'm not as connected to the culture as I'd like to be.
-Tim
#OOC: Olea speaking#this is kind of a self-indulgent headcanon but HEAR ME OUT it adds a lot to Tim's character specifically#we're talking about a character who was separated from his mom in childhood and locked up in a psych ward#suffers from chronic physical and mental illness made significantly worse by the institution that was supposed to be helping him#forced to regulate his emotions more than other people have to so he isnt misinterpreted as a threat#struggles with addiction#had to work twice as hard as anyone else in his friend group just to be given the same opportunities#a much more common experience inside BIPOC communities#and he clearly has ties to the land (especially the park) nobody else has#you know how in season 2 Alex starts yapping to Jay about how the park is cursed?#maybe he was right#maybe that *thing* has been here for hundreds of years#and nobody was ever able to settle the land so eventually the Department of Conservation turned it into a state park#and Tim isnt some random “patient zero”#but he has ancestral ties to the land and was more receptive/at risk to Operator Sickness (but was also more resistant to it long term)#JUST SAYIN 👀#im half Katu and I desire my comfort character to be a halfie with me we need more non-white rep in mh#ask.txt#marble hornets#mh#tim wright#afterlife au#slenderverse#Native!Tim

Hiii, do you know of any books with chronically physically disabled main characters? And books with housebound disabled characters?
For the previous ask, I would prefer if the disabled characters were also bi but it's fine if there aren't any books like that. I'm fine with queer in general too
--
I'm not sure what you personally would consider *chronically* disabled (arthritis? amputee? deaf? HIV+?) but the QBDatabase actually has 411 books with disabled Main Characters or Love Interests! To try to narrow it down, I filtered for either chronic pain or chronic illness + bisexual (or pan / queer)
Full Disclosure by Garrett, Camryn: HIV+ black bisexual female
Sick Kids in Love by Moskowitz, Hannah: female MC with arthritis x bisexual male LI with Gaucher disease
Architects of Memory by Osborne, Karen: terminally ill bisexual female MC
Two Rogues Make a Right by Sebasian Cat: chronically ill demisexual male x bisexual male
Sorrowland by Solomon, Rivers: black albino bisexual intersex MC who is partially blind and has chronic pain
The Queer Principles of Kit Webb by Sebastian, Cat: mga disabled male with chronic pain who uses a cane x gay male
City of Shattered Light by Winn, Claire: chronically ill bisexual female MC
Tripping Arcadia by Mayquist, Kit: chronically ill bisexual male prominent SC
Fight + Flight by Machias, Jules: pansexual female MC with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome
The Unbroken by Clark, C. L.: bisexual female MC who uses a cane and has chronic pain in her legs
Cruel Seduction by Robert, Katee: polyamorous bisexual male MC with chronic pain from a knee injury (FFMM bi4bi poly-pairing)
Eight Kinky Nights by West, Xan: FF pairing, pansexual x greysexual, one has arthritis but I don't know which one
The Friendship Study by Barrett, Ruby: bisexual male MC with chronic pain who uses a cane
If there's any other type of disability you're looking for, you can filter by 20 physical disabilities while also filtering for mga (bi, pan, omni, etc) identities!

A is chronically ill and wakes up with what they think is just a bad symptom day, but not bad enough to stay home. So, they drag themself out of bed, take their meds, and head to work, not realizing they're actually getting sick. B, their boss/coworker/supervisor, notices that they seem a bit out of it. A brushes off B's worry with a true excuse about a migraine. Over the course of the day, B notices that A doesn't touch their lunch, is struggling to stay awake, and isn't their normal happy self. B goes to send A home and places their hand on A's shoulder comfortingly, only to find out that A is burning up. This is news to both of them. B insists on driving A home right then, making sure they have everything they need to spend the next few days in bed recovering.

Who is surprised I ended up writing a mini essay on remus lupin on reddit lol.
Thought I would share it here bc I never get tired of thinking about him.
It was asking to describe personal perfect characterization of Remus (it was respectful and kind and not trying to start fanon war or whatever and responses were more than taller etc. it was very nice.)
Anyways-- what I said:
I agree with a lot of what's here and I'll add.
My perfect Remus --- **disability or chronic illness rep is so so important** If it's magical universe, have lycanthropy affect more than one night a month.
It shaped a lot about him in canon and I think that it carries over to a lot of responses in au/modern. It does not have to be the focus of the fic, but it's important to me that it's there.
That said, I still love things without rep and would never try to dictate. But if we're talking preference.
I think that he tries his hardest to be kind, he has a lot of patience but he also has a breaking point. I think that he's a great listener
I think he has low self esteem, he build up walls that it's hard to breech bc he's been forced into secrecy.
I think that he's a great teacher and that is in part bc of how hard he's had to work academically and that he wanted good grades for validation and to prove he belongs and grasping on to that possibly helping after school is over. I think that he's smart, but it's not the level of James and Sirius. I think that he gets the swot and bookworm title bc he misses class and is sick so he has to study. I think that he probably is jealous of the way it seems effortless.
I think that he would do anything to keep his friends once he lets them in. But he also self sabotages and pushes them away. Fear of hurting them, or being seen, or bc he's scared, or unworthy. He thinks that people would ultimately be better off without him due to stigma or danger or needing caretaking and sacrifice. (Animagus, etc)
I think that he's a little weird, he got the loony lupin from somewhere. I think that while he's funny and nice to be around, I don't think that he's the same kind of draw and charisma as Sirius and James. But that doesn't make him less, just make him different.
Anyways. I have more to say but I'm tired lol.
I've done more posts I might edit if I find them.
