#i woke up and chose violence

[zoestorm]

The manga: a college guy meets his childhood friend, who was formerly a boy but is now a woman, and has run away from home after an unspecified disagreement with her family which has left her with a significant amount of trauma; it's implied she was bullied heavily in the time since they've last seen each other.

But don't worry, she's not trans! She just got an illness which turned her into a woman!

The manga: a high school boy with an interest in make-up uses his gloomy, depressed (male) childhood friend as a model to improve his skills. This causes said friend to have an "awakening" and start dressing as a woman, and to overall be a much happier, brighter, outgoing person.

But don't worry, the friend is not trans! He's just a boy who crossdresses because his childhood friend likes him better that way!

The manga: a high school boy joins a club where the members can turn into magical girls, which in his case involves physically transforming into a girl. When in girlmode, he's much happier and enjoys his life much more, and overall prefers staying in girl mode; when the ability to transform is temporarily taken away from him, he sinks into a deep depressive episode.

But don't worry, he's not trans! He's just a boy who enjoys being a girl!

The manga: a college student loses a bet and has to crossdress for a night out on the town, and meets and hooks up with a butch girl; they fall in love and start dating. The boy always crossdressed when they meet, and starts enjoying being "treated like a girl" in the relationship and starts crossdressing even when he doesn't have to meet his girlfriend and enjoys activities such as clothes shopping and make-up and putting on nail polish.

But don't worry, he's not trans! He's just a boy who crossdresses to please his butch girlfriend!

The manga: a guy is magically turned into a girl as a result of saving his best friend, the crown prince, from an assassination attempt. The prince decides that he has to take responsibility, and asks the new girl to marry him; despite being smitten she refuses, wanting to date first. She is later offered a way to go back to being a man, but when she does turn back she's disgusted by her own appearance and depressed all the time, ultimately deciding to stay a girl.

But don't worry, she's not trans! She's just a boy who's been magically turned into a woman! And decides not to turn back when she can! Because she's not trans! Somehow!

"But we can't write trans women in manga! It's just not something that you do!"

Vecna getting his hands on Will and taking him to the Upside Down with him and then taunting Mike with visions of Will being dead and saying “but little did you know that you two could have had each other, because he felt the exact same way you did” and Mike screaming and crying while holding Will’s lifeless body in his arms :)))

Okay but all I can think about is how if say Tony and Peter always met up at this one diner.

After giving Peter back the suit they make it a biweekly thing unless there was a business trip that kept Tony away.

I'm pretending there was a 1 yr or 2 year gap between that and the snap. So they become regulars and always get the same booth in the back.

And after the snap, once Tony is back in NY and recovered?

He shows back up to the diner. Sits in the same booth, staring at the empty seat across from him.

The same old waiter as always comes over, asks him if Peter is late.

And Tony cries on the spot. It's the 1st time he has cried since he felt Peter turned to dust in his arms.

Time to block another AI-promoting sterek event I guess 😍

The notion that Thomas Kinard is representation for white gay men who have to unlearn their bigotry and recognize their privilege is deeply funny to me, considering they did a shitty job with showing that he has changed and grown. And the fact that people see themselves in him is telling.

You're just telling on yourself at this point.

order may, MAY perhaps be restored once I feel satisfied that you lot have the dignity to choose wisely. you have been warned.

Agatha & Rio — Feminine Rage 🖤

“I want this,” Agatha breathed, no louder than a whisper. Rio chuckled, finding it amusing how powerless the infamous witch was when it came to intimacy.

Whenever they crossed paths, whether it was days or centuries between visits, Agatha always melted in Rio’s presence like a lit candle, pooling from a withering wick. In her case, she was the whimpering witch, ready to be devoured.

“Say it. What do you need, Agatha?” Rio was not in the mood to play games. If Agatha wanted something from her, she felt it should be spoken.

“I want… I need you,” the witch begged, this time with audible urgency.

Every witch with a beating heart was about to hear Agatha Harkness scream, and Rio could not wipe the smirk off her face, knowing she would be the reason why.

“Good. Now, your wish shall be granted…” Rio dropped to her knees, ready to meet a need only she could satisfy.

This post might get me in trouble but fuck it, lol.

I would love for Nuala and Cerridwen to join the Valkyries.

Hear me out. They are trained spies. Why should they only work in the kitchens and do household chores if their skills are so much more useful in the field? Azriel has already trained them. They have potential as characters, and it would be nice to see them more involved in the future plot.

Also, I would find it very cute if they befriended Gwyn, too. Since babies are rare in Prythian, Im guessing twins are also a rare thing. Their bonding might be good for Gwyn's healing process after losing a twin sister herself.

They are half shadow-wraiths, and as we established before, shadows seem to favor Gwyn. All I see here is a great potential for another acotar friendship.

Oh, also, if the other side sees this post and accuses me of trying to steal Elain's friends, lmao. I think Elain will not be in the NC for much longer... She will not mind it if the twins branch out. Also, who said that having other friends somehow diminishes your connection to other people? I'm always happy when my besties befriend someone new to appreciate how awesome they are. But maybe that's just me.

Slipping through my fingers all the time

If you think Kakashi hates hospitals the most, you should really get to know Gai better.

My hc is that Gai HATES looking weak. Like, really weak, defeated, hurt. That's why he acts arrogant, gives bombastic speeches, shows himself to be morally superior, and never stops unless forced.

Imagine that for years your people, your community, crossed out you and your (soon to be dead) father. They would treat you like trash, they would make fun of you all the time, and you know it. They don't hide. They chase you to beat you because they think you're so ridiculous that you deserve it, and every day you perfect yourself so that doesn't happen again, you break your bones and flesh so that you cannot be weak again. So that whoever dares to look at you like a worm, sooner or later, KNOWS that you could destroy him, drain his life with a single fist, but that you didn't do it.

Why? Because their pathetic existence is not worth bothering about.

Gai doesn't need to be taken care of, to be looked after; That need to be taken care of already passed along with his childhood. Do you want to see him as a pompous idiot? Do it, he will encourage you to believe it, he will act like a clown, but at any moment he can break the act and simply show you how pain and anger are two things that can hide very well behind a smile and transform into pure strength under a strict control.

Now, can you do that?
