word count : 0.8k (click here for part 1)

The snow fell lightly as Abby’s car came to a halt. You glanced out the window, noticing the glowing sign of the local ice rink. Suspicion brewed as Abby hopped out, her excitement barely contained.

“Why are we here?” you asked, stepping out reluctantly.

She grinned, her hazel eyes alight with mischief. “You’ll see.”

You shivered slightly as the cold air nipped at your cheeks. It had been a few months since you met Abby— Covering her championship game had been your golden opportunity to prove you had what it took to be the new editor. Back then, Abby’s reputation as cold and unapproachable made her seem like just another challenge to overcome.

Now, as you stood outside the rink, that icy exterior was long gone—at least with you. Abby wasn’t just warm; she was a fire that thawed the walls you didn’t even realize you’d built.

Abby grabbed your hand, lacing her fingers with yours as she pulled you toward the rink entrance. “C’mon, editor-in-chief, don’t tell me you’re scared of a little ice.”

“I’m not scared,” you muttered, though your voice betrayed a flicker of doubt.

She laughed, the sound rich and genuine, sending a ripple of warmth through you despite your growing nerves. “Sure, you’re not. Don’t worry; I’ve got you.”

Inside, the rink was almost empty, save for a few stragglers gliding effortlessly across the ice. The faint scent of hot chocolate and the sound of blades scraping the rink filled the air. Abby handed you a pair of skates, her grin widening as she noticed your hesitation.

“Are you seriously going to make me do this?” you asked, frowning.

“You’ll love it,” she promised, tying her laces with practiced ease. “Besides, I can’t date someone who’s never skated before. It’s a dealbreaker.”

Your jaw dropped. “You’re joking.”

“Am I?” she teased, already lacing up your skates for you.

You huffed but sat down anyway, letting her work. “This is blackmail,” you muttered under your breath.

“Call it what you want,” she said with a wink. “But you’re not getting out of this.”

When the skates were snugly in place, Abby led you to the rink’s edge. Your hands gripped the barrier like a lifeline as she stepped onto the ice, gliding effortlessly before turning to you with an expectant smile.

“Alright, your turn,” she said, holding out her hands.

You hesitated, glancing at the slick surface. “Abby, I’m going to fall. Like… a lot.”

“Probably,” she said with a shrug. “But I’ll catch you.”

With a deep breath, you stepped onto the ice. Instantly, your legs wobbled, and you clutched Abby’s arm like your life depended on it. She burst into laughter, the sound echoing around the rink.

“Oh my God, your face,” she said between gasps, tears forming at the corners of her eyes.

You scowled. “This isn’t funny!”

“It’s a little funny,” she said, her voice thick with amusement.

“I hate you,” you grumbled, though the heat in your cheeks wasn’t entirely from embarrassment.

She pressed her lips together, trying to suppress another laugh, but the effort failed miserably.

“I’m going to leave,” you threatened, turning awkwardly toward the exit.

“Okay, okay, I’m sorry,” she said, grabbing your hands to stop you. Her eyes softened as she added, “Seriously, I won’t laugh anymore. I promise.”

You sighed, letting her guide you back onto the ice. “You better not,” you warned, though your tone lacked bite.

The first few minutes were a disaster. Every attempt to move felt like a battle against gravity, and your frustration mounted with each stumble. Abby stayed patient, holding your hands tightly and offering encouragement, but her lips occasionally twitched like she was fighting back another laugh.

“Abby,” you snapped after a particularly graceless fall that left you sprawled on the ice. “If you laugh, I swear—”

“I’m not laughing,” she said quickly, though her eyes sparkled with suppressed mirth as she helped you up. “You’re doing great.”

“Liar,” you muttered.

Eventually, with Abby’s steady guidance, you managed a few shaky laps around the rink. The initial terror gave way to tentative excitement, and by the third lap, you were almost enjoying yourself.

“You’re a natural,” she said, pulling you into the center of the rink.

“Liar,” you repeated, but this time there was a hint of a smile on your lips.

She shrugged, her grin softening. “Maybe. But you’re still my favorite skater.”

The lights dimmed slightly, and soft holiday music began to play. Abby pulled you closer, her arms wrapping around your waist as she swayed gently on the ice.

“Merry almost Christmas,” she murmured.

“Abby, this is so unfair,” you said, though your heart raced at her closeness. “You’re using my love for romance against me.”

She smirked. “Guilty as charged.”

As the snow continued to fall outside, you found yourself laughing and skating, Abby’s warmth chasing away any lingering chill. The ice wasn’t as terrifying as you’d thought—at least, not with her by your side.

LMK IF YOU WANT MORE!

[velvetvexations]

as an autistic trans man, sometimes I feel less safe in public presenting as a man than as a woman, because, especially in certain places, man + visibly autistic tends to be more often falsely read as "dangerous and predatory" than when people read me as a woman.

Yeah, as an autistic trans woman who doesn't pass, I feel that. <3

Honestly thank you so much for what you do on this app. I'm so glad there's people who are actually willing to stand with trans men instead of pulling the "um well I have it worse so do NOT talk about your own oppression EVER or else you're a transmisogynist!" I'm so happy I found your blog and I hope you have a great week <3

I hope you have a great week as well!

Eh a long while ago Chris Fleming made a video making fun of polyamorous people which used a lot of the same hurtful stereotypes society already perpetuates against us and I’ve not paid attention since

Noted, as someone who is also poly.

i wish the queer community didnt put so much emphasis on sexuality labels like i just want to have sex why do i need to put a word to it

very valid

about the dropout “discourse”: hot take but real life people are not representation. theyre people. real people are not queerbaiting you and real people happening to not be transfem (and I have literally seen transfems in some dropout episodes theyre just not part of the main cast) is not a lack of representation. these are real people. stop* *not you, the people being shitty about it

the complaint is not in any way coming from a genuine place tbh

hey! i just wanted to let you know how much your blog means to me as a trans guy. you and your reblogs have given me hope at trans unity, and lets me know that i-- that we-- aren't alone. so thank you for everything you do, and i greatly appreciate your support and look up to you 💛

Thank you. <3

i redownloaded etsy recently and seeing all the trans stuff saved to my favorites is so sad. i used to feel happy and proud and i wanted to be open about being transmasc. but since all the discourse got worse i just. cant bring myself to feel like it matters. it makes me feel like im trans and yet i will never matter the way other trans people do.

You do matter anon, I promise. I love you, you matter, and I'm glad you're here.

As a trans guy a lot of the self-ID'd TME transmascs weird me out so much. Like why do they all sound like "I am so strong and my power to Harm Women is immense. I could do it so much and I feel the pull to the Transmisogynist Dark Side but *unsheaths sword* I will protect them instead with my big strong testosterone arms from my fellow men" like what even is that. Who is into this.

it's so incredibly obviously bad but it reinforces some people's victim complexes so it's praxis now

a trans person will joke about their experience and a trf will jump in to assume theyre a white transmasc who has never ever faced any real difficulties for being trans

every time

Out of the many, many stupid ideas in this dumb discourse, I've finally decided the one I hate the most is that underlying implication that transmascs just aren't trans enough. It's so gross seeing people imply that we aren't really trans. Our dysphoria is minimal discomfort at most, apparently. I've seen people post about and imply that transmascs will never understand not feeling like a person or being unable to live a life pre transition and that's why we have privilege, i guess - are you kidding me? It's like our experiences are a joke to these people who are clearly so wrapped up in their online discourse bubble that they're just detached from what it's like for trans people as a whole. Sorry for the vent (would rather not post this on main and I don't have anyone to talk to) but it's just the most grating part. Also it's like. Low-key transmed shit. Thought we left that behind, c'mon.

transmeds are like ants they come back every summer

i wish TRFs had a label they proudly called themselves so i could jsut go through their tags and block them, but noooooo they HAVE to frame their transphobic bullshit as Brilliant Transfeminist Theory. like atleast radfems are fucking honest about being radfems

That's part of why I made antigonism a label for anti-TRFs to call themselves~!

[graysbullshit]

a list of brazillian fun facts you might want to know for your qsmp fanfics! (or in general lol)

DATING IN BRAZIL (because I know at least 50% of yall are gonna be writting slash):

Phase 1 can be or texting/talking or ficando (infinitive: ficar), it depends on how shy you are;

Ficando means to be actively seeking a person out consistently with the intent of talking for a bit and then making out (it does not entail any level of loyalty);

Brazillians only consider it "making out" if you french kiss;

Kissing without tongue is considered weird and viewed negativelly;

A little peck on the lips is cute, but not really what we consider kissing;

There are two types of brazillians: the ones that will start dating after a week and the ones that take months to make up their minds;

If a brazillian is interested in you (even if you don't know each other) and you're in a party there is a very good chance they will walk up to you and ask if you want to make out/ask for your instagram handle (it depends on what kind of party it is tbh);

Also, most brazillians kiss and tell lmao;

It is not uncommon for outgoing brazillians to make out with random strangers, especially during carnival;

We are a sex positive country mostly;

We are very sensual, even if we have no romantic interest;

Mock-flirting or Joke-flirting is very common in friend groups;

People who make out/date with the person their friend likes are called Talarica or Talarico;

When you get cheated on you're called Corno;

People usually go on dates after ficar for a whille;

Usually, if you're going on dates with someone it is expected of you to be faithful or to end things (you can't go on dates with a guy while also going on dates with another guy, that's fucked up);

We call dating namorando, from the infinitive namorar which refers back to namorado (boyfriend) and namorada (girlfriend);

brazillians are typically very direct when they are interested in someone, which doesn't mean they will say "oh, i like you" right away, but they will flirt for sure;

in Brazil saying "I love you" isn't a big deal, most brazillians will say it pretty fast and not saying it back (if you're in a relationship) is considered VERY WEIRD;

brazillians have the tendency of being very jealous lmao;

GEOGRAPHY:

Brazil is a continental sized country, being the fifth biggest country in the entire world. It is bigger than the USA, if counting only directly conected land (ignoring Brazil's islands and Hawaii and Alaska);

Because of it's size, brazillian states have a great number of differences in language, culture, food, climate, and politics;

There is as much animosity between states as in the USA (the difference being: brazillians will always defend each other rather than gringos);

The brazillian streamers are all from the Center-West, South-East and South of Brazil (unfortunatly there is nobody to represent the North and North-east);

The south-east is the are of biggest economical impact, while the center-west is known for the capital of the country (Brasília) and the agriculture, while the south has a terrible reputation (they have livestock too, but mostly a bad reputation);

Brazil has two of the biggest cities in the world: the 5º biggest, São Paulo, and the 19º biggest, Rio de Janeiro;

Nobody fucking likes São Paulo (the city) except from the people that were born there or lived there their entire lives;

Brazil has a mostly warm climate, and most brazillians consider anything below 20ºc to be cold (vai sulista, fala que no sul é mais frio, fala);

Brazil's seasons are more often defined by the level of humity, rather than how hot/cold it is;

Brazil is a giant when it comes to agriculture and livestock. We have a lot of grains, and red meat. If you drink coffee and eat meat you have definetly tasted brazillian products without knowning, since we do a lot of exportation (especially to europe);

Brazil has natural diamonds, pre-sal (which can be used in the making of combustives), gold and other precious stones.

HISTORY:

Brazil was mostly colonized by the portuguese, but there was also a presence of the Spanish, French, Dutch and British. You can tell by the architecture;

Rio de Janeiro was the capital of the Portuguese Kingdom for a little while;

Brazil (much like Mexico) was once an Empire;

Brazil (as it's own coutry) has had only two Emperors;

the Brazillian Empire was a big deal despite ending fairly soon;

Brazil's Empire once eliminated about 90% of the male population of Paraguay during a war, which is def a war crime. We have repayed them for what happened, though;

Cities like Rio de Janeiro have a lot of Imperial architecture, but most of the colonial architecture can be found in states like Minas Gerais;

Brazil sent troups in WWII to Italy, the famous Smoking Snakes;

Brazil was forced into a dictatorship by the USA (surprising no one);

Brazil had a president that decided to develop highways instead of trains (i fucking hate him). It's the same guy that moved the capital from Rio de Janeiro to Brasília;

Brasília was build with the blood of poor people and it fucking sucks, but it has the shape of an airplane so everything is fine ig /s;

Brazil's first woman president and it's current president were both tortured during the dictatorship;

Brazil is a concervative country, despite everything;

Do not ask me about Brazil's politics, because it's so fucking insane lmao;

GENERAL CULTURE:

Brazillian culture exists on top of three axes: Portuguese, African, and Indigineous;

We take A LOT from Japonese culture (since we are the country with the biggest Japonese population outside of Japan). I've never met a brazillian who hasn't watched anime, even my grandma knows what Pokemon is /srs;

Some other important diasporas in Brazil: Lebanon (we have more lebanese than Lebanon itself lol), China, Germany, Italy, and many different African countries;

Most brazillians listen to funk and sertanejo, but other brazillian music you might be interested in: samba, BRrock, mpb, BRpop, Axé, and Pagode;

Some other famous brazillians you might not know, but you should: Silvio Santos, Celso Portiolli, Rodrigo Faro, Angélica, Eliana, Xuxa, Luciano Huck, Pyong Lee, Mauricio de Sousa, Ariano Suassuna, Clarice Lispector, Machado de Assis, Guilmarães Rosa, Fernando Pessoa, Vinicius de Moraes, Toquinho, Mateus Hwang, Tiago Leifert, Tadeu Schmidt, Boninho, Guilherme Briggs, Fernanda Montenegro, Rodrigo Santoro, Wagner Moura, Seu Jorge, etc;

Most brazillians only drink tea for medicinal reasons (like cammomile tea);

Most brazillians love coffee and hate iced coffee;

Most brazillians start drinking coffee at a very young age;

Drinking (alchool) age in Brazil is 18yo, but most brazillians start drinking around 15yo;

Most brazillians love meat and barbecue. Here is a picture of a brazillian brabecue:

Brazil, differently from other American coutries, didn't have potatoes/corn as it's basic food, we had a root called Mandioca. Although it is still very beloved in brazillian cusine, the base for brazillian meals is currently Rice;

In Brazil we usually don't eat a lot during breakfast, but have a big meal (with rice, veetables, meat, and beans) for lunch and dinner. And our dinner is usually around 20h-22h;

We don't use AM or PM;

We use the metric system and Celcius, and we very much deslike the imperial system and what's-his -face is an abhorrent scientific disgrace;

brazillians who suck up to gringos are called "Vira-latas", which can be translated to "mutts" or more directly "eat-trash";

brazillians have mutiple coffee breaks during the day, mostly in the afternoon;

brazillians brush their teeth at least 3 times a day (mostly after every big meal);

brazillians shower at least once a day, some going as far as to shower three times a day during summer;

brazillians do not use snapchat and they think it's obsolete (because it is);

brazillians will pirate anything that isn't made by other brazillians, and I mean ANYTHING. There is no shame in pirating in Brazil and we are very proud of being the country that pirates the most in the world! We will also buy counterfeit products knowing they are counterfeit;

brazillians rivalry with argentinians is REAL. And, although is mostly a football thing, it really translates to everything else (especially if it's online);

brazillians have a hierarchy when it comes down to rooting for stuff, and it goes like this: brazillians, sibling countries, latin americans, other african countries, other third world countries, japan, other asian countries, european countries, anglo-saxon americans, argentina (if it's football), germany, portugal;

rick riordan dickriders on here will be like "why are you complaining about the pjo tv show, go watch the movies and see what a bad adaptation really looks like" ok well listen to the musical watch it on youtube and see what a good adaptation looks like bitch. it can be done. as a fucking stage musical. what did that 15 million per episode do for disney that chris mccarell couldn't

[emberglowfox]

Heyyyy, I stumbled upon your blog just a few hours ago and I'm already hooked, but I am wondering about something.

So, if your Link is transmasc... uhhhh how did his top surgery go down? I don't think "ye olde medieval fantasy land" Hyrule has anyone (alive by the setting's present day) with the tools or skill to do it the modern way, and I also don't imagine magic methods would leave scars.

Sorry if I'm overthinking this, I'm just genuinely curious if there's an answer.

honestly, there's any number of answers to this. i tend to go with whatever's funniest to me (i've seen lots of "shake r stick to remove tits" jokes in the tags of that rauru drawing, which make me laugh) but i take it you're looking for a serious answer here, so i'll take off my jester cap for a moment.

i see this question a lot: "how would he have top surgery in an old time-y setting? they didn't have surgeries like that back then", and i feel like this kind of disregards the fact that this is a fantasy setting. sure, surgeries like that didn't exist in our ye olden times, but we also didn't have giant murder robots stomping around on tentacle arms, or fairies that can make a crop top deflect a sword, or so on. maybe he got purah or robbie to do it with sheikah tech! maybe, due to the fact that there are huge monsters stomping around everywhere attacking people, hyrulian medical technology is far more advanced than we realize, and they have even cosmetic surgeries (done somewhat differently, obviously, but still). maybe he got a great fairy to do it with magic, and just asked them to leave scars because it looked cool and/or he wanted to be openly transmasc. maybe, as some comics have joked, he just did it himself with the master sword, because he's built like that.

okay, i'm getting into joke territory again, but i'm sure you see my point. zelda, and most fantasy, plays by its own rules-- why do we have to return to the 'standard' rules of realism to place trans people in it? why not have fun and get creative with it, you know?

TL;DR: i don't really have a set headcanon 'this is how link got top surgery' in mind when i draw him, but there's basically infinite ways it could have happened by nature of fictional fantasy.

[lecliss]

The choice from Sunday is kinda weird cuz the options are build a cage in the house for the bird or build a nest where it fell and one leads to the bird growing up but dying once its set free and the other one probably leads to it dying much sooner. They both feel like the same option and even tho obviously the most kind, caring, morally right thing to do is keep it inside so at least it lives longer even if it's in a cage. But like to me both options suck and are basically nothing cuz I'm sorry if I look like a bad person for this, but I'm not sorry, but I'm not fuckin touching a wild animal. Even if I knew it was there even if I bothered to check out the sound to find a bird, which I wouldn't, I'm not touching it. I'm not even getting close enough to find out it's too young to fly yet. Whatever happens to it happens man and I'll never know what happens to it cuz I'm not even gonna look at it. Like, where's the 'you seem like an asshole but really it's quite a normal choice' in this whole trial thing??? That's usually an option you can pick. Sunday!!! Sunday, listen!!! There are more than two choices!!! You don't have to always do something!!!! You can just walk away!!! You don't have to try to do something for everyone all the time!!! Think about yourself sometimes!!! It's not selfish I promise!!! SUNDAY!!! OH MY GOD HIS WINGS ARE COVERING HIS EARS HE CANT HEAR US!!!!

[starrysharks]

omg please do explain the contrast in the designs!! i'd love to hear

ok!! basically it all comes down to the amount of red in their designs. for octavia, red is a consistent color that shows up all over her design. red as a color signifying passion, anger, confidence, etc... i wanted it to show octavia's personality as a blunt, determined and opinionated person, and her freedom in expressing those parts of herself.

however for vivica, while red is a consistent color, i made sure to put far less of it into the design, and the rest of the design is mostly monotone/grayish colors. i wanted this to symbolise that vivica, while determined and passionate about her goal of killing/capturing octavia, locks away any "wrong" emotions or feelings that would defy the clear crucifix organisation, if that makes sense ? basically that her personality, at least in the presence of her superiors, is mostly repressed and her true emotions are surpressed/muffled (?) by the organisation she is involved in, hence the monotone. the fact that it's the uniform of her school where this is most apparent is also important.

and also its not completely related but i decided to make vivica's pupils target shaped as its both a cross + to signify her obsession with octavia + her relentlessness/desire to fufill her goals no matter what! sorry if the meaning seems like a stretch or is a bit pretentious sounding, i'm not the best at symbolism 😭 i hope this was interesting at the very least

[spearxwind]

btw if you sent an ask or a DM in the past few weeks and I havent gotten to it yet i am so sorry but it may still be a hot minute until i do due to irl stuff + my mental health

dont worry im doing fine ive just been heavily prioritizing irl stuff and i have accidentally let DMs and such build up so I will try to pick away at them when the hectic weeks stop coming

[judasisgayriot]

i promise I’m a huge proponent of blocking and curating your experience etc and yet it also seems like I complain all the time sorry asdgjkhkl but this fandom has genuinely made me paranoid about following or reblogging anyone new lest I be blockt n cancelled yet again for the associating w the wrong ppl crimes I seem to have committed several months ago when I got into foblr. which is kinda a bummer

[highwayphantoms]

lmfao i send my dog to daycare so he can have some time around other dogs and of course NOW i get smacked with bitterness about shit from four fucking years ago

[gigawatt-smile]

your icon is transmasc lockwood..give me ur transmasc lockwood thoughts pls *holds out a bowl*

(and any other gender/sexuality hcs you have for l&co characters 👀👀)

Oh I have SO much to say on all of this thank you so much for asking and noticing. (There are some book spoilers here so I will put a small * at the start for people who haven't read them. General spoilers are marked with ** :] )

Lockwood:

He's a stealth trans man and has hit a point in his transition where it's no longer at the forefront of his mind

He used to hate that he couldn't wear a binder on cases (he still did it at times) but I think he firmly has top surgery now. I have two headcanons about him getting top surgery, actually, though one is more of a joke

One is that Inspector Barnes managed to get it under DEPRAC insurance because binding was seen as inhibiting his ability to do cases

The other is that he once got a case that paid well and used the money from it to get top. He didn't think to tell anyone and returned one day with the drains in the pockets of his greatcoat completely high off painkillers

** His parents and sister never knew about him being trans and that makes him upset sometimes

He is a binary trans man, though I use the transmac flag for my icon (slightly altered colours) because I am. He used he/him pronouns

He's asexual to me as well

He's straight in a respecting women way and definitely in a bi wife way. With mentioning that...

Lucy

I'm gonna go off on two tangents with this with transfem Lucy and afab non-binary Lucy because they both greatly appeal to me; I'll explain them in that order

I'm not really in the mood to get into much transphobia because I don't want to bring the tone down, but her mom was not supportive at all, though she heavily defied her mom in that regard and was out to her friends

* Her sisters were supportive too, as much as they could be under the guise of their mother, and her sister Mary would help out a lot

Norrie in the show probably fills a similar role

Once she left home and went to London she was excited by the prospect of finally getting to be herself and openly using her name with new people

She uses she/they pronouns

My afab nb Lucy heavily ties into trans Lockwood, actually

Basically Lockwood getting rid of his old binders and her asking for one just to see what it's like and realising she prefers the way she looks wearing one

Lockwood talks to her about it blah blah heartwarming stuff about looking after your body n such but being happy for her

Anyways I like both of these for different reasons

Here lucy uses they/she pronouns

Anyways she's also massively bisexual

George

Oh he's got he/they energy in the same way Cabinet Man or Touch-Tone Telephone by Lemon Demon do

He's been out for years, and is quite comfortable with the fact he's trans and doesn't mind people asking or telling people about it

The more comfortable he is around you the more he'll say

His parents were just chill with it too, and his brothers were delighted to "teach him" how to be a guy

Also side note congrats on your autism George. This doesn't really have anything to do with it but it's on my mind

He's just got that transmasculine swag and that's cool for him

I think he may be pansexual, or omnisexual

Flo

I don't have as much to say on Flo but I adore her and she deserves a spot

Anyway she uses she/they/any pronouns in a gender is a social construct way and is adamantly opposed

She tells people to get creative with the pronouns

** Holly

Absolutely a trans woman who loves being a woman I take no criticism on this

She likes being pretty and wearing nice clothes because it makes her feel euphoric

She's not stealth trans, but she likes people not being able to tell

She's pretty open with the people she trusts

* Another joke-y headcanon that I have is the real reason Lucy is jealous of Holly is because Holly is further through her transition

But they learn to bond over it

* Also she's a lesbian because "flatmate from Fittes" who is a girl as well as the whole "there are other possibilities in this world" line. Yeah she's heavily implied to be a lesbian in the books

Kipps

Maybe trans, maybe bisexual, may be just an ally. Idk, I don't think a lot about him

I can see him being a stealth trans man like Lockwood ngl

Anyway rant over, thank you asker :D

[technicolorxsn]

I always feel a little bad queueing art but also I don't rly wanna spam constantly

[idiot-arih]

hello! i’m sorry that i was gone for so long. it’s literally almost been a year since i even touched this site. every day i saw notifications from here, but couldn’t work up the will to really open tumblr again or even reach out to the people that supported me the most. i’m sorry for continually promising to return just to disappear for an even longer period of time. my motivation and mental health has finally recovered enough for me to finally return. i hope you’ve all been well and i wish the best for all of you. i’m slowly starting to draw again and will hopefully be able to whip up some things that i’ve been planning on for over a year now. thank you for your patience and understanding. this time i mean it.

[future-crab]

Thinking about the time at the beginning of all this when my doctors told me the soonest they could schedule a test to try and determine what was going on with me was April, and I told them, "I don't think I can live like this until April."

And now it's October...
