Find the word tag

I was tagged by @oliverferrie (go read his stuff !!) Gonna be using 'Alex's adventures in Wanderwen' for this one; a lil novella that's part of Puppet Club (a 1920s steampunk fantasy series I have in the works).

My words are: panic, defence, trust, and comforting

Only 5 uses of panic (surprisingly!):

They continued the rest of the journey in silence. Silence that was comfortable for Alex, but certainly not comfortable for Vincent. He still continued his nervous checks towards where Alex was sitting and would even sometimes occasionally whistle. Nonsense tunes. Little noticeable jingles from adverts and brands. Whatever was stuck in his head at the moment. It seemed like his internal playlist was on shuffle as he kept getting a new one on loop in there every few minutes. Alex didn't speak, but they enjoyed his panicked attempts to fill the void. They pursed their lips at times, compelled to join in with tunes they recognised; then they remembered they couldn't whistle, and quickly bit down on their lip to stop themself before they did something embarrassing.

Only 1 defence:

They repeated it over and over, under their tongue, slurred violent speech. The force as they limply shook Tommy made the loose bits and bobs in their pockets jangle, and the gun tucked into their suspenders glint. Tommy noticed it. He inhaled sharply. Wrapped in a sweet green ribbon, their revolver. A gift for self defence. The very gift that got them expelled. Hugo noticed it too and frantically pulled Alex off of Tommy; firm hands squeezing so tightly Alex felt like their bones could pop. Tommy slid down the wall.

3 instances of trust:

There was a sickly sense of pleading in his tone; he dropped his arms slightly, extending hands into a slight-shrug, an earnest pose of desperation. Underlining his words, his stance breathed ‘you know me, you trusted me, you still can trust me’.

I used comforting 4 times and comfort 16 times pahaha. That's more like it. Poor Alex. Funnily enough, two of the comforts are used in the excerpt I picked for 'panic' lol.

Alex awoke with a jolt. They’d fallen off the settee in Vincent’s office. They stayed wrapped in the blankets he'd given them and, although the remnants of the dream still choked them, that comfort grounded them.

Anyone who wants to read this its up for free on my toyhouse page ! <3 But be sure to read the warnings as it gets quite heavy.

Tagging @ekhoartworks ; if you wish to join in your words are fight, love, growl and overwhelm !

An aesthetic board for Azriel Woods, an Original Character and the main character in the book I've been trying to write since December 9th of 2021. He's gay and non-binary (They/He).

The drawing was made by my friend Devan, I don't know if she has a Tumblr account.

I have made absolutely no progress since January 30th.

[teplejtrouba]

a detective who has a partner🔍 and a partner💕 who are friends so the three of them end up doing a lof things together and the detective refers to them as "my partners" and doesn't realise this makes everyone think they're polyamorous (they do end up polyamorous by the end of the story)

Monty's Study

I haven't been to the fandom tag in a while, so maybe this was already discussed, but I want to talk about Monty.

First off, I've been reading what others say regarding his cage and connecting it to what he said himself.

the cage is too small for a crow (literally for any bird, actually)

the door is open, nothing that we could see was holding him in place

Monty still didn't try to get out and fly away

he said "being in the dark like that - it was... hard, not being able to make my own choices" about his previous life as a crow

Which makes me think Esther never cared much for her familiar and even left him alive after he failed her plan only because he could still come in handy in future but either cast a will-binding spell on him or simply trained to be tamed. In any way, he couldn't leave - neither before his human time, nor after.

Which still doesn't mean he should like being human.

Every time I see the takes about "Monty come back in s2", I can't help this thought scratching me even as I smile at the jokes and headcanons. Not to yuck anyone's yum, I'm all for shifter Monty, it's a very interesting idea that can unravel in soooo many ways, just give me all of them, - but at the same time I can't get rid of this uneasy feeling.

Here's the thing: I take a particular liking to the characters who aren't human but were forced to become one without their consent, and the way they feel about it and cope with it. Call that a projection, they're very relatable as an allegory, whatever. Says Skaya as an ND.

Some of them like the change, find new meaning in it. Some are 50/50 and uncertain. And some hate it. They never asked to be human, what the hell!

Malevolent podcast and some RK900 fics are partcularly good at exploring this

Since the first moments Monty was turned human, I've been looking forward to whether this question was going to be addressed and how. The show was going exactly in all the directions I liked the most, so I had hopes it will consider this, and suspected it would happen exactly the way I wanted the most.

And yay, that actually happened. The way I wanted the most. Added sad circumstances of Monty basically sacrificing his newfound life and self were really not that necessary okay q_q

Throughout the episodes I could see how initially all smiley and loyal familiar Monty felt more and more uneasy about the whole Esther's plan. He didn't like it. He liked his new friends. He actually fell for a guy. It was so fucking complicated and confusing but there was also joy in it! Until certain point, that is... Anyway! Being human is difficult. Monty didn't ask for it.

And he actually says that!

We don't know if he liked being a crow better, if he wanted to stay human longer - he doesn't talk about any of it. He liked the ability to make his own choices he couldn't make as a crow though - so maybe he would like to try this human experience to some extent again.

But we know he wasn't very fond of all those complicated human feelings. Crows are very smart, but it's a different kind of intellegence. Being a bird isn't necessarily simpler or easier than being a human, especially now that he's lost his owner and is probably out in the streets? I'm suddenly very much concerned, crows are very social and territorial creatures, what if they don't accept this boy?! But it's different. And it's natural for him. It's familiar, hence it's easier just by this fact. And no confusing emotions.

Maybe the fact that Monty liked making independent decisions so much and developed his rebellious side to some extent was what made him retain some memories and attachments when he was back to his crow form, helping Charles with his backpack.

I don't think he'd enjoy being fully human again, though. I think he likes being a bird, as he initially is. Hence why all the "Monty should come back in s2 and have a happy love story!" make me feel uneasy.

Still... since he liked some of it, maybe being given an ability to shapeshift at will and somehow merge a bird mind and a human one which should really be ONE HELL of a process into some comfortable chimera, he'd use it?

okay so I’m reading this manga called ‘love me for who I am’ online and it’s about being trans and the main character is nonbinary and it’s very very queer and I’m only a few pages in and AUGHHHH I FELT THAT

here’s the link because this is too good to not read: https://dynasty-scans.com/series/fukakai_na_boku_no_subete_o

I don’t even like anime or mangas because I think the art style sucks but I’m starting to change my mind a little

[forcedhesitation]

that one bozo who made the gender swapped dame aylin mod: it's unrealistic for minorities to exist in this game because it's supposed to take place in medieval europe!!!!

aasimar, vampires, devils, and dragons aside....

[threshasketch]

Practicing some painting techniques on my enby vampire original character Etienne. They don't usually have purple hair (except in the ancient original draft of the story they're from), but purple is their theme color, so I ran with it and had fun.

A Cozy Weekend In The Cabin

In the world of Joey and Brianna, the year is coming to a close. Three hundred thirty-one days, that’s how long these two have been putting in work. For Joey, the year was all about finishing up his debut album. Long nights where Joey could have been at home, snuggling his girlfriend, Brianna, were instead spent in the studio, burning the midnight oil. While Joey was working away in the studio, Brianna was away at the school library, writing papers and finishing assignments. So now, as the trees shed their leaves and snow and ice coat the ground, life begins to slow down, and for Joey and Briana now is the perfect time to put a pause on work and get in some much need quality time. But what will they do with this time off?

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is wild because it is the straightest game I have ever played but at the same time it is the gayest game (that isn't like. something literally about being gay or centered on a mostly lgbt cast) I have ever played. Does this make sense

[transsexualraskolnikov]

im literally pushing myself to make a male character in one of my stories because all of the cast is just queer women but im genuinely like unable to do so. i go to draw a male character but my hand slips and before i know it i’ve drawn yet another lesbian. alas. it’s a curse.
