I forgot to say that on my trip one of the camp counselors camp name was Wolverine. I swear he was queer my gaydar was fucking spazzing he just was and I could tell. And it was like. Woah. I had never met a queer adult in person, and the feeling I got even tho he never actually said he was, was just. Wow. Like—there are people out there, that exist, that I can visually see and speak to and they’re there, that are queer. We exist as adults. We grow up. That feeling—just wow. I know the majority of this site is queer teens and young adults but like. It’s so different to actually meet someone in person. Really seeing that they are real. You’re all real but like. I guess my adhd doesn’t let me believe something even if I know it, till I see it. It was just that feeling. To know that, hey, you have a future. You grow up. There are other people like you out there. That, yknow, exist. As fully grown people. The feeling of meeting a queer adult for the first time. Woah.

I recently learned to let go of the rush of things after noticing that maybe that’s why everything felt so dull

Halfway through getting my bachelors degree and I now realize that I have no passion and love for what I’m doing, that I don’t identify with the area. But I just felt like I needed to rush out of high school right into uni, I didn’t know what I liked, what I wanted, I didn’t know myself, but everyone was rushing so I felt like I should rush as well.

Now despite my day to day rush to study, work, among other things, I’m really trying to find myself. Try new hobbies on my spare time, lay on the floor while listening to music, reading a book. But I think the best part was limiting how much I use my phone, it gets in the way of everything.

Anyways, this was just a way to get something off of my chest and tell other people that it’s okay to feel lost. That sometimes you just need to change your perspective and way of doing things<3

Yk tfw a detail you put into a work ends up having even more depth/symbolism than you intended? That's how I feel the longer I look at the epithet I gave Tesla in the Purple Hyacinth AU.

During the first stage of planning, my good friend Shadsie suggested "Ghost of the Sands" which alludes to her canon-fate/ghost appearance in Trimax. I ended up running with the ghost theme bcz 1) it sounded cool & 2) I liked how the allusion doubles as a reminder that tho this is the same character, she is NOT living the same story.

Then I began to build Tesla. I researched synonyms for ghost, purple & disaster and settled on Wraith, Violet & Calamity. Boom, just like that it happened again.

Wraith was an extra letter from the word 'wrath', reflecting the anger & ruthlessness Tesla is capable of. Violet is a shade of the colour she associates with love but it's one letter less from 'violent' which encompasses the world she lives in.

I had the persona, now I had to focus on the person. I like to think I've come a long way with her, esp since canon & fanfics can only give you so much to work with. When I talked abt her with other moots, she wasn't just a concept but a character. And it's through conversation that a perception of said character can change.

I made a joke with sapphofinch that involved PH!Tesla messing with someone, being an overall chaotic gremlin. Then I paused & realized that the 'supernatural' angle I gave Tesla rlly did suit her character a lot.

When we think supernatural, ghosts, monsters, curses & the usual horrors are what comes to mind. But if you look deeper, it also includes mischievous creatures, cunning spirits & other beings that can offer protection, healing, strength. All of which fits PH!Tesla to a T.

*smh* In this day & age where creativity is being put through the wringer no thanks to AI, I'm once again in awe of how human creativity, have it be from someone else or even my own, continues to surprise us in ways AI never could.

I just read some lines in a book so it felt like sharing..

"Expecting things to be bad is the best way to be pleasantly surprised when they're not."

Ironically, this is something too optimistic about.

over half a bottle of wine deep and just. i have so much to give. and what i have to give is beautiful and wonderful and anyone would be lucky to have it. and if they don’t want it that’s their fucking problem. and if anyone out there is feeling like i am and feeling feelings for someone who doesn’t want them like just know anyone who doesn’t want your energy is not worthy of receiving it. ok??? like i am only just now realizing that my shit is great and it still hurts that other people don’t want to receive it but i’m only just learning that it doesn’t invalidate my value and i’m being so real that is hard to figure out but HUGE. you are exactly who you need to be and the people who are meant to be in your life are going to love what you’ve got. fuck everyone else.

When I was a child I was struggling at school, and I was unhappy, so my parents started taking me to a therapist. I ended up telling this therapist that I wanted to be a girl. I hadn’t heard the term transgender yet, but I knew I wasn’t a boy.

This therapist told me that it was a fetish. It was my first time hearing the word fetish. She told me that wanting to be a girl was something bad that I should be ashamed of. I was told not to tell my parents because they would be disgusted, and that if anyone found out it could ruin my life.

I held onto that shame for a decade until my senior year of high school when a transgender student started going to my school. I never met her, but I saw her around, and heard people talk about her. This was a transwoman living her life openly and publicly. She was doing the very thing that I was told would ruin my life, but her life didn’t seem ruined. She had friends, and seemed happy. Happier than me.

A year later in October 2013 DC comics published Batgirl #19 by Gail Simone. In this issue Batgirl’s roommate Alysia Yeoh came out to batgirl as a transwoman. Batgirl was so loving and accepting in that moment. My favorite superhero didn’t see anything wrong with being transgender. I sat at my computer reading peoples reactions and reviews to this comic for hours. I sent the author an anonymous message on tumblr thanking her for helping me find the strength to love myself.

I still had a long way to go before I was able to come out, but these things helped me start to heal. This is why visibility and representation are so important. Seeing another trans person in real life, and seeing trans people in the media I was consuming helped me be less afraid, and helped me hate myself less. In october 2019 I started HRT at 25 years old. Nearly 5 years later I’m happier than ever, and I love life.

Lilia wondered if you knew what it meant to be loved by a fae. Did you truly?

To be loved by a fae meant to be worshipped.

To be loved beyond eternity.

To have lasting memories that would never fade.

To be found in all lifetimes until the end of eternity.

Silver and Sebek knew, having grown with faes and learning their culture.

Silver, even as a human, had learned and readily accepted it but he grew with such knowledge.

Sebek had grown knowing such from his mother and grandfather, even his father knew what it meant to be loved by a fae and willingly accepted it.

Lilia watched as you dozed on Malleus’ lap, the prince stroking your hair with a loving gaze upon you.

You, who were loved and cherished by him and Malleus, two powerful faes who made nations tremble at their power.

Lilia knelt by your side, kissing your forehead. His own blessing mixing with Malleus’s, marking you theirs.

Lilia knew that in time you would realize what it meant to be loved by them, maybe you already had.

After all, you loved so gently yet passionately. You loved with your entire self. It was only proper for that love to be returned just as intensely.

He knew you would never come to danger, not with them protecting you: the Dragon and the General of Briar Valley.

You were also protected by the Knights of the Future King of Briar Valley, both of whom considered you family.

You were loved and cherished, and will continue to be so by all you have come to know and will know.

And of course, especially by them.

Photos at Madrid's Victory ball! 💃

We attended our first ball! It was such a dreamlike experience!! It was also our first time doing Regency reenactment so it was a challenge. We haphazardly put together some looks, had a great time learning more about the fashion and the dances and met a bunch of lovely people from all over the world. The palace was stunning, the live band was wonderful and the food delicious, it was an unforgettable night 🥰
