speaking french and spanish and having non-binary pronouns is a curse
and i'm not even talking about the fact that the whole language is gendered
i'm talking about the fact that "elle" in spanish (pronounced "eyé" (?) is a gender neutral contraction of el and ella
but "elle" in french is basically "she"
So saying that my pronouns are iel/they/elle confuses french speaking people when they read it because they think that my pronouns are basically french-they/they/she and it's annoying lmao
#language#non-binary#btw i'm pretty much a beginner in spanish since i'm learning on my own#all that to say that i use “elle” bc i've been told by spanish-speakers about it#i wanted to specify because i know there's a whole discussion about latinx (apparently not created by actual hispanic ppl) and latine#so i might be wrong but i think “elle” is pretty common in spanish for non-binary people?#are there any other gender-neutral pronouns in spanish?#in french “iel” is the most common and recently added to the dictionary#but i know some people use “ille” and sometimes simply neopronouns#french#french language#pronouns#queer#gender#gender identity#spanish language#latine

pov you're a trained soldier in 1462 and you see this fuckin gremlin who has lost whatever cheap armor he had come at you in the night
Feeling things today and doodled Vlad back when he was human
#my art#doodle#oc#vlad#i mean he wasn't turned until later in life#but yknow you experience the horrors of war at a young age#and then are expected to go back to normal peasant life#so you run away to confront a monster deep in the mountains#only for said monster to find you entertaining and promise you immortality#cept the years pass and pass and one day you look in the mirror and see how old youve gotten#so you take matters into your own hands#and create a whole false identity as a vampire#normal stuff

its june so i wanna share my lgbtq+ headcanons for ffvii characters just for fun, starting with the main playable cast:
(except they’re hcs by an obnoxiously trans gay person that projects onto their faves at all times, spoiler alert: they’re all trans and gay)
- cloud: he/him gay trans man - starting off strong with a gay trans guy (i warned that i would be projecting a lot with my hcs in this post) … but i’ve noticed a lot of other people hc/portray him as a trans man too so i know i’m not alone on this one! i cant explain exactly why i hc like this but i just do, probably cause i like him
- tifa: she/they transfem lesbian - i cannot be convinced that she doesn’t like women considering how she is with aerith and jessie tbh, and i like her so i’ve lovingly hit her with the transgender-inator beam out of love
- aerith: realistically- they/them nonbinary lesbian - i have no basis for this tbh except it just seems right to me! as for my actual hc for her (which is a pure projection, pls bear with me) - he/they gay transman - this is purely my own projection because aerith is really like stereotypically feminine(?) in ways that i am also feminine, so it comforts me to think of her like me if that makes sense
- barret: he/him but willing to test out she/her, unlabeled gender that is not quite cis but he’s only now exploring it and hasn’t quite figured it out yet, bi-curious and experimenting - thats so long but i’m not sure how else to describe it, i feel like he grew up all “traditional” and stuff, and then being a single adoptive dad and being a huge part of avalanche, he probably hasn’t had the time to really think about any of it too much or explore his gender/sexuality, but now he can with being surrounded with others that can help him explore, realize it’s alright to be uncishet, and help him learn about these things
- cid: okay i’m not gonna lie, canon wise he gives me major homophobe vibes (maybe its the raging misogyny that makes me think he’s bigoted in every other way…) but ignoring that he/she nonbinary bi - definitely exploring a lot and isn’t quite set in stone about what he is yet but he just knows he’s not cis or het and with those being more broad and spectrum like labels, he feels most comfortable with those over anything else, and he feels like they’re just right for him
- vincent: he/they transmasc gay - i’ll be honest this is also projection on my part because i love vincent a lot and want him to be like me! also he gives me major gender envy…
- reeve (in place of cait sith): he/him transman and gay - again, i just love him a lot tbh, and i feel like he is the kind of guy that knew who he was from a young age and tried to help out other people that are trying to navigate their queer journeys and find out who they are, i feel like reeve would be a major inspiration and advocate for the queer youth
- yuffie: they/them demigirl lesbian and arospec - she’s definitely still figuring herself out but she has very little interest in pursuing romance, but any relationship she can imagine wanting in her future is with another girl
#this post is genuinely just for fun!!! i respect all hcs and i know mine aren’t perfect or canon or anything!#most of these are either projections of my own identity or things that just kinda come to my mind when i think of the characters#i know sometimes lgbtq+ hcs can be controversial and i don’t want to create any kind of drama or anything i promise!!!#i just wanted to share my personal thoughts and takes on them! i understand if others disagree and i dont mind one bit! everyones different#a lot of them just kind of come to me as a vague feeling if that makes sense? like its the first thing that pops into mind yknow?#pls dont take any of these too seriously!#happy pride month!#i’ll probably post other characters hcs soon! :)#ff7#ffvii#final fantasy 7#cloud strife#tifa lockhart#aerith gainsborough#barret wallace#cid highwind#vincent valentine#reeve tuesti#yuffie kisaragi#minus red cause i don’t wanna risk anyone thinking im likening anyone in the community to an animal#lgbtq+ headcanons

headcanoning monogamous characters as polyamorous is free, fun, and easy to do! additionally, it is always both cool and sexy 😎
#why am i posting this to my bg3 blog you ask? well. it is because. i am tired.#tag rant here we go:#when people hc straight characters as gay or bi there (mostly) isn't nearly this much pushback#because people understand that bias in storytelling means there just were never going to be as many queer characters in canon#so making your own is understood as creating your own stake in a heteronormative narrative#but when you do the same thing with polyam characters suddenly it's Disrespecting The Character bc 'that's not how they're written'#like no shit? polyamory as an identity is no more respected in mainstream storytelling than being queer is#so yeah. yeah. your canon monogamous boy is part of my polycule now. he's engaging with the beauty of commitment to multiple people at once#i helped your girl work through her possessive and jealous instincts with patience and care. she's our girl now.#anyway! no matter how much this fanfom clearly doesn't want me to be here doing this i remain#saltposting#baldur's gate 3

Ur tags about how Miles and Pavitr are the ones who say "I can do both" because it IS quintessential spiderman thinking AND because they're too young to have seen that devastatingly not work yet. BUT the thing is they are RIGHT but only if it's "we"! Spiderman's mythos is inherently a lonely one reinforced by Miles and Gwen's isolation and by every. single. intro. reminding us that every spider person is the "one and only spider person"! And yet!! These films are just about relationships (1/2)
YES YEAH YOU GET IT !!!! and (quite recently rewatched it and mentioning it here cause i can't believe i forgot to mention it in the post you're talking about) it really gets me that gwen also says 'i was doing both' in regards to protecting miles and protecting the canon event, and i love that the phrase was reflected like that, even tho (at this point of the movie) miles and gwen pretty much oppose each other in views/priority !!
it also absolutely kills me the way that gwen begins (like you say) atsv quitting the band and isolates herself, and then throughout the whole thing she finds something/someone that she wants to take that leap for, all over again :') she (and the entire spider-team!!) is willing to bet everything on miles and is ready to fight for him, and i really just love the idea that miles just is a force that inspires good !!!! IT REALLY IS ALL ABOUT LOVE!!!
#and . i dont think she would have done this without reconciling with her dad and that entire speech.#i do think that acceptance and love meant everything to her when she was at her lowest and it pushes her to do more +#AND it shows her canon events arent necessarily end alls. and it reflects in how she tells miles parents how much he loves them#just feel like. gwen now believes that love he has couldnt ever be bad. and it shouldn't have to make the world end...#and she believes it wont. AUGH#also been thinking that it's such a fun way to reflect that 'parker luck'#where yknow . where peter just cannot balance his two identities#and usually a spider-man success means something in his personal life goes badly#and idk i love when things are acknowledged to be like. the RESULT of being spider-man .#its fun to me. perhaps i am analysing media wrong. but tragedy magnet spider-man is so fucking depressing on many levels#and that opens up barbie dreamhouse levels of fun to me#generally superheroes creating their own enemies on accident . like ssm's venom was a goldmine to me i enjoyed that interpretation so much#i dont think miguel was right tho . fate of the multiverse/anomaly/etc I DONT CARE OLD MAN. UR OPINION WAS OVER WHEN U STARTED BEEF W MILES#and so sorry this took forever to reply to omg i adored reading this meta !!!!!#answered#disinherits#long post#sorry everyone the floor was open for my deranged takes again

Not to mention — Kettle is a fantastic character who does love his daughter, but there's this undercurrent of disrespect toward her as well. He loves his daughter, but does he respect that she is her own person outside of that role? He places the entrance to the Gauntlet in her very burial chamber. He uses a mural depicting her entombment as part of the key. He bought Marcus' allegiance with wings hacked off her beloved, and he sent him to kidnap her using those wings. He infects her with the tadpole and robs her of free will so she will betray her beliefs (she, who is a cleric) and stay at his side. He also frames her love of Aylin as Aylin stealing her from him.
#OOC / HOLLY.#it's extremely touching that he has a note from her as a child on him when he dies#but it is also telling#she never grew up for him. she was supposed to be his little girl forever#his identity imo came to revolve around being her father which made it difficult to see her grow beyond simply being his daughter#not to draw a Log.hain M.ac T.ir parallel but y'know one thing he says to his own daughter#'daughters never grow up An.ora. they remain six years old with pigtails and skinned knees forever.'#yeah. that. it's that.#not that y'all asked for my unprompted Kettle thoughts#I just enjoy seeing that complexity of his clear love but also how he holds on so tightly it's smothering#and obvs Isobel loves and respects and admires him — or did — and considered him a great father#I'm not invalidating that#I'm just basking in them creating complexity instead of making either of them a stock archetype#and showing nuance in a parent-child relationships#also showing how things evolve and especially how grief shapes it all#because the death of Melodia sculpted their dynamic long before Aylin arrived or Isobel died or anything else happened

trying to plan out what pokèmon bruce wayne would have... much to think about
#i am envisioning batman to have: noivern (obviously he must have one bat pokèmon). lucario. and greninja#i chose the last 2 partly because i like those pokèmon but theyre also powerful and stealthy pokèmon#so fitting for batman#and noiverns more of a less-stealthy heavy hitter i guess for when hes gotten civillians out the way#batman would have to have some sort of earplugs or padding in his cowl to deal with the sound noivern creates though.. hmmmmm#im also thinking he should have some sort of electric or tech pokèmon but i cant decide which one..#i gotta balance strategy vs his asthetic#it would be good if he had a fire and/or grass type pokèmon too but none really fit his vibe#also it would make sense he have a fighting type (aside from lucario) but i dislike all the fighting types 😔😔#sorry pretty privellage is REAL and it is stopping me from giving him other fighting types#idk.. much to think about#i think lucario makes a lot of sense tbh like they both have the drive to do good and help people#i can envision bruce finding a riolu during his time training and instantly having that connection#ORRR bruce is so strung up on his anger and bitterness. it takes meeting riolu (who rejects him for not being as virtuous as b would think)#for bruce to kinda enforce his own principles#of becoming batman to HELP amd do GOOD and not just for vengence#meanwhile i chose greninja cos its one of my favs#brucie wayne would also need different pokèmon to batman. otherwise his secret identity is WAYY too obvious#it would depend on what kind of bruce wayne i want tho#the more ditsy playboy brucie would have different pokèmon to... e.g. ben afflecks batman whos more sleazy businessman#so many different options#SORRY FOR THE RAMBLE i am... thinking

I have a theory that i can’t prove, that Great runes can’t work on other Demi gods, meaning Miquella’s charm included. The bewitching branch, for example only works on lesser enemies, never bosses. I KNOW the branch is made by his followers but my point still stands. I think the demi gods are much too powerful to have another runes influence affect them.
I’m not saying Miquella didn’t charm people but I don’t think radahn was charmed, Malenia was never charmed because that’s stupid to assume and Mohg convinced himself he was charmed.
#elden ring#i dont know why people assume miquellas charm is as powerful as it is#it creates camaraderie and lessens negative and violent tendencies#without it the followers tore themselves apart at the paranoia of Leda#i’m nOT saying the charm is a good thing#i just think it’s not as brainwashy lack of identity as people make it out to be#not to mention how much hate FEMALE characters who are charmers and seducers get#make it a feminine boy and the homophobia and transphobia comes out in droves among gamers#Fia charmed and coerced Rogier to look for the Knifeprint#and i dont see people coming after her because she gives nice hugs : )#elden ring spoilers#sote spoilers#shadow of the erdtree spoilers#these are my own thoughts pls don’t engage if you want a fight

when your favorite character makes it to the finale
As a fellow Danganronpa fan, I'd like to imagine that if Pre-game Shuichi wasn't, you know, gone forever because he'd given up his life to become an anime character like a dumbass and could somehow witness our Shuichi kick So Much Ass in Trial 6, he would be the one cheering him on the loudest. After all, Shuichi is his perfect little detective guy and the person he once hoped he could become. That's why I can hear the "You tell them!" in his voice in my head so very clearly. And in spite of being responsible for ending Pre-game Shuichi's favorite TV show in the world, at the core of it, Shuichi was ultimately fighting on behalf of his friends for what was right all the way to the end.
And who wouldn't want to get behind that?
#I drew this so I would have a visual reference for writing about him because man there is so much to go over /#/ if we take tsumugi on her word that Shuichi signed up for that madness himself#but its not the same person right? ingame shuichi has a writing credit!#Id like to think that OUR Shuichi is an sort of like an OC created partially by Shuichi himself#like team danganronpa would exploit people and get them on the show by allowing them to become the characters theyve always wanted to be#and I dont know how common this is but I hold my OCs very dear to my heart even if I make them go through Hard Stuff#tbh if my own character got to be in my favorite show and they would totally SLAYED it in the finale while also killing the franchise#I dont think I would be mad you know#even if that character is fictional its still real in a way that matters#thats what the ending is ultimately about anyway#but for now Im just glad I finished this little thing oh my god I CANT DRAW this was a loong struggggle but Im glad I have a visual aid now#shuichi saihara#pre game shuichi#post game shuichi#drv3#ndrv3#danganronpa#danganronpa v3#💜#and yes I gave him an identical dr pin to the one I have as well hank you for asking#drv3 spoilers#ndrv3 spoilers#art

Iron Man (1968) #105
#this is so much#we’ve got Tony asking his child self to take off the armor that’s suffocating him#and his parents blaming him for his problems#‘You let your money- your genius separate you from people! You created your own loneliness son- your own pain!’#while guiding his child self away from him#like I think Tony’s problems go a lot deeper than feeling disconnected from other people because of his intelligence and wealth#he comes up with all these reasons why he can’t show genuine care to other people#and to always be performing some kind of constructed identity#but he also can’t consistently tell what is a performance and what is really him#in this dream Tony has become something initially unrecognizable to his younger self#also I like that the armor burns child Tony when he touches it#marvel#tony stark#my posts#comic panels

man.. shipping with characters from movies is so hard..
#ash rambles 💚#I'm the kind of person thats super particular about my self inserts#i need them to be lore accurate and have super fleshed out backstories. i aspire to create the characters i want to see in media#and they will always be their own characters before they are me#that being said. i have such a hard time making an s/i when there's no wiggle room#this new guy I'm crushing on.. the story is so fast paced#and he's really in love with another girl#i love him and all that. but it feels like there's no room for me. that just pisses me off! ugh!#i feel the same way about k.ili too though not to such a great extent#idk man. i just hate when this kind of thing doesnt work right#writing my inserts is my greatest passion and i truly am proud of some of my lore#I'll always care for them as characters more than as a vessel for me to kiss pretty characters and i know all my friends can agree that 90%#of what I've sent them is writing about my s/is and not my f/os LMAAAOOO#but yeah. it's so hard for me to figure out where my self insert goes in this movie#also um. i dont want to have an s/i just be a useless side character that just stands there. i know this might sound silly but#as a brown woman who didnt grow up with much representation and to this fucking day has not seen a single punjabi woman in the media i grew#up watching.. i dont want my characters to be useless#ugh sorry I'm rambling sorry for being so negative#anyhow. I'm almost done with the first movie. crush boy is so handsome!!! gamers idk how long i can keep his identity a secret#hahaha what if you were a blacksmith and i was a cute writer and... and we kissed..? haha jk..... unless..?

it's interesting how i don't think in the course of my life i always dabbled in both feminity and masculinity pretty well and i kinda constructed my own idea of my presentation without even thinking? if that makes sense? i think about it a lot
#if there was a scale i would be in the middle#i have always been in that sense#and then later on in my life i came to terms with the fact that was bi#and it was like perfect for my identity tbh#i love to be a woman and i think i created my own version of being a woman pretty quickly ever since i was a child#does that even make sense?? i hope it does#tris.txt

Spent all of yesterday studying on the problem of Nationality and the creation of a National Identity and ngl I haven't stopped thinking and trying to figure out how yankee's modern idea of nationality came to be, specifically thinking of white American people who say they're of a nationality based on "ancestry" with no personal cultural ties to it
#rambling#Not meaning to swing at the hornet's nest lol#But i think as a latinamerican guy in latinoamérica i think i can say with confidence this is something none of us understand about the USA#I think it's probably at least partially influenced by nazi ideas of nationality which evoked Nations as biologically inherent#And all nations having one singular race and language which bound them together from birth and gave them the right to their own land#somewhere along the way this also morphed into white americans claiming to be of national identities they have little to no contact with#based on their bloodlines and family history#it could be the american State's inability to create a national identity that matches the historical characteristics of its territory#Trying to build a national identity around nazi-like ideas of a white christian ethnostate in a place where the cultural diversity does not#allow such a plan to ever come into fruition unless they were to take on totalitarist strategies#Coupled with thw USA's history of slavery and open discrimination against non-white peoples creating the phenomenon of white guilt#So white people who dont agree with the ethnocentric facets of their national identity feel the need to ''flee'' their race and nationality#But since their construct of nationality is blood-based to say it in a way the only escape they can think of is escaping to a reality based#on a past and present they have never experienced themselves in hopes to be ''absolved'' of blame and freed of guilt#... But that's my guess lol#Also again specifically talking about white USA people with no or only tangential ties to the identity they claim
