#dakota answers!

hi! i noticed in one of your posts you say that you think transwomen do not overall benefit from patriarchy and are oppressed by men — while i do agree with the second half, in that trans peoples’ legal/medical safety is infringed upon and gnc people overall are discriminated against under patriarchy, i’m having a hard time understanding why you think transwomen might not be benefiting from patriarchy overall? transwomen are not affected by abortion/reproductive rights, do not experience the same violence or pressure to wear modesty garments as women and girls in certain countries, and are not trafficked or married off at young ages in nearly comparable amounts. what part of the patriarchy are you thinking of that a transwoman might not benefit from? because again, i don’t think that discrimination due to gender non conformity necessarily cancels out all of the other benefits, unless something obvious has slipper my mind. thanks!

Valid points. I more meant about how MRAs will attempt to use the discrimination against feminine males as proof of "male oppression" existing and that I do not share any class interest with the average man.

(Tossing this to you In a new ask because the other one was getting long !)

“It was okay, I don't think it was bad” Lil Ashe hums tilting her head at Rabbit. They don't quite understand why he's worried(?) for a second they wonder if she used the wrong words. She doesn't find anything wrong with where she and Trick used to be. She takes a glance back towards Trick, she knows they know how to explain it better and in bigger words. “hold on, Trick can explain it better “

She quickly runs back off into the brush and comes back holding Tricks hand leading them along with a smile , despite the Tricksters disinterested look

It's certainly not the same as Rabbits universe but it is peaceful in its own sense, for the most part it's kids just being kids. They've period the horrors sometimes but they're kids a good 90% of the time and they need someone to look up to .

(Hehehe that happens- I think my other Rabbit rp is almost to 100notes of just us going back and forth LMAO-)

Rabbit doesn’t believe it wasn’t bad, because he’s been through being mutated, he knows how rough it was, at least for him. But… He’ll trust lil Ashe, because he didn’t know how exactly it was like for her. “Okay!”

Rabbit tenses when Trick comes out with lil Ashe, but tries to relax his ears, as much as he could while having them hidden behind him- Trick was a kid too, they deserved to have a chance too.

i watched madame webb earlier today and i actually really enjoyed it? like i was pumped for it when i saw the trailer and it was a little bit slow to begin with but it was lowkey fucking brilliant icl

[honkceasar]

Thinking about Dakota and William again and their dynamic really just is:

Who will win?

Guy that truly believes he has done/will do something so heinous that it deems him “too far gone” or “beyond saving”

or

Guy that vowed to never EVER give up on/fail to save a friend again, no matter how impossible or how futile the effort may be.

like i already know it’s a common headcanon but you seriously can’t tell me dakota isn’t heavily coded, intentionally or not, as an autistic character within the source material of jrwi pd because.

-multiple examples of having sensory issues (mostly auditory)

-repetitive behaviors and routines (ex: dresses in the same outfit daily, has a very specific way he keeps his room/space)

-expresses having special interests/hyperfixations (superheroes, martial arts)

-goes through meltdowns where he lashes out and/or becomes nonverbal (ex: s2 ep36)

-uses self-stimulatory behavior often, especially during said meltdowns (ex: s2 ep1)

-consistently misses out on social cues

-has an entire aspect of his character that is literally just masking (dakota damascus vs dakota cole; his attitude at school, etc)

-deep sense of empathy towards animals (common trait in autism, though not a diagnostic one)

-very strong and rigid beliefs about order and righteousness that are very difficult to challenge for most of s1 + s2

-occasional lack of bodily awareness about danger/pain signals

hello have you made a South Dakota OC yet for your states.I would really like to see what South Dakota looks like in your style considering I live in the state of South Dakota.

my birth state was Massachusetts so it be cool to see Massachusetts as well.

hello!! my designs r actually awfully similar to how ben portrays them so like you know. not all that special TBH,,, i have actually drawn mass before but i love him dearly so heres him too <3

feel free to ask me for literally any state because even if i haven't designed them my special talent is bullshitting something on the spot

[theywhoshantbenamed]

Be so awesome and cool if (willing to obv) draw North Dakota at some point 👉👈

Not right away obv but at some point cause I Love them and need scraps of my boy.

Yk what I don’t really have a set look for North Dakota so I guess this was a good opportunity to make one up ^^

The double braid was inspired from @/northduhcodeuh’s ND but I like the idea of him with long hair so I went with that too

[dailymothanon]

The Dakotas 🤯🤯 well. Their designs-- mostly South's design, they will probably change a little here and there 🫡 but that casino rez money ain't no joke... (even tho North is the richest state in the Midwest last I checked) (South doesn't actually have all that bling I just thought it was funny) Yes, South has sunglasses because of one of their state nicknames and whatnot. Probably got Florida to gamble away his state nickname to him 😒 don't ask me about the last doodle. I put it there because I wanted to.

[playbiteband]

OHO he gamin' :3c

[sketchthetofu]

Okay

Now let's have swap and rabbit meet

Yippee!!!

Rabbits looking as anxious as usual, ears tucked behind him and fidgeting. It was always a 50/50 if meeting another au person was going to be good or not, and it was starting to make him a bit stressed about meeting people, which sucked!!! He loved the random good interactions he’s had but the bad or stressful ones were just easier to worry about in the long run.

[gaycavendish]

ouuuhhh them : )

[gracklinging-electricboogalo]

may i mayhaps request dakota poorly balancing on a skateboard. or suck dakota drinking from a blood juice box. with a curly straw

[clovis-enthusiast]

What other Clovis ships do you enjoy? 🤗

(Other than Clovico)

AH HI YES HELLO i always forget to check for asks (and actually answer them as well. so sorry ares cabin asker one day u will get ur post... one day....)

i actually am a huge multi-shipper so the list of characters i ship clovis with is quite long! there are some i prefer and flesh out/explore way more than others for sure, but generally i think they're all very lovely 🫶

ANYWHOOZLE HERES A LIST OF ALL THE SHIPS THAT I LIKE(D) THAT I CAN THINK OF ATM!!

pollux

lou ellen blackstone (i prefer queer platonic partners for them but including anyway)

will solace (by himself or in a poly relationship with clovis AND nico)

jake mason (originated from one of my cosplayer friends apolloshalfblood who duets me as jake!!)

michael yew (originated from one of my cosplayer friends theturtleking72 who duets me as michael! i actually have a WHOLE lore/story behind this ship if anyone would like to hear abt it someday!!)

drew tanaka

mitchell

leo valdez

valentina diaz

butch walker

malcolm pace

dakota

octavian

damien white

jason grace

katie gardner

miranda gardiner (originated from a fanfic by mew-tsubaki!! note: that person also ships lacy and clovis which i do NOT condone. lacy is too young to be in a romantic relationship with clovis.)

sherman yang

nyssa barrera (originated from a fanfic by akheilos and delphin inc and inspired slightly by my cosplayer friend whatami.doing2!!)

alabaster c. torrington

piper mcclean (this was before she got together with shel so while i still like the ship, i feel cautious abt it just bc piper said she doesnt know what her sexuality is and since shes currently woth a woman, i dont want to disregard her potentially having a sexuality that woukd exclude clovis for one reason or another)

austin lake (originated from the artist baylx!!)

ethan nakamura (this is the most recent ship i got into actually! from a rlly good fic called even if you run away, you still see them in your dreams on a03 by mondtstadtlover6000)

and im probs missing a ton of others but these were the ones i could think of off the top of my head!!

(and then i also ship him with some of my own ocs :3 one is named marty diaz from the ares cabin, one is a daughter of hecate who doesn't have a name just yet, and one is a child of hecate named miles/miley!)

my personal favorites (besides clovico) are niclovill, pollovis, and (atm) ethan x clovis!!

and for reference, i hc clovis as somewhere between bi and pan but not rlly caring abt labels. also i hc him as being nonbinary/gender fluid if that adds anything to these ships lolol)

back with wiwi southern thoughts . listen . ik for the most part dakota was the one who really fought mark on things with ashe but i would pay for a moment where will just like. pauses. and looks mark dead in the eye and goes 'bless your heart.' and walks away. i think this needs to happen

YES. OH MY GOD.

It’s one of those moments where Dakota and Mark are arguing like hell and Mark says something and Will’s voice just breaks through and he lets out this heavy sigh before going. “Oh bless your heart, Mark.” Shaking his head and holding his hand to his chest before walking off
