something something gman tommy something something gordon in stasis. you know how it is.

[camphorror]

the fact that paul was so bothered and hung up about their plans changing and he kept saying he doesn't even understands why he's moaning about it but he wants what they're doing to have a "pay off" then he justs says this to john and it's like. oh. ok. I Get It now....

and then he sits there like this

ACOSF, Ch. 19

I don't understand why Cassian can have this grace and patience for Azriel, but not with his own mate. Chapter 17 sees Cassian simultaneously defending Nesta (to Rhys) and then almost immediately afterwards storming into the private library to demand, "What did you say to Elain?". Nesta, TWICE, tells him to buzz off. ("I don't want to talk to you" followed by "Leave me alone".) But Cassian just dogs her to the 10,000 steps. I just... I just don't get why he ignores her explicit boundaries and requests despite (supposedly) being head-over-heels in love with her tits. But that's clearly not an issue he has across the board. Just an issue he has with her.

Editing to add:

ACOSF, Ch. 27

I still think that Cassian (or at least Cassian from the original trilogy) is (or is supposed to be) an insightful, emotionally intelligent character. So it's frustrating to read him be that way with other people and then be an absolute fucking dunce when it comes to his own mate.

"Your ship isn't canon!!"

And? That's the point. You think I don't look at their non-canon status and don't see a goldmine for angst potential thanks to this? You think I'm weeping, but I'm rubbing my hands like a greedy little man, thinking up scenarios to make others cry.

"They don't get together." Maybe that's the point, Jerry. The tragedy of the "what if" - not knowing what road their love story could have taken, but knowing the chance of it blooming in the first place is forever lost. Or maybe it isn't and it takes many years to see the chance once again and this time not losing it. Or maybe losing again-

Creating a story where they do get together is understandable and isn't this awful thing that should be forbiden, but sometimes embracing the non-canon status isn't that bad. Sometimes I want to create a story where instead of getting together, I explore the love and how it affects the characters.

Unrequited love, one sided love, falling in love after it's too late, denial of feelings etc. You name it and I want to explore it.

Canon ships can't provide me that. Them being non-canon isn't well...canon. It can exist in one fanfic but they're still canon.

Not all love stories between characters, who were or weren't canonically in love, not ending up are automatically bad. Non canon ships can also tell a story. And I'm not just talking about well known, popular non-canon ships btw. This includes lesser know ships and crackships as well.

Sometimes I like a ship and them not being canon is the point.

time for a jamie and co LORE POST!!!! here's them with their (immediate) families. all the actual lore and such below

JAMIE: only child with a single mom. since furries in this universe can only have kids within their taxonomic families, adoption is really common among smaller families like prionodontidae. however jamie's mom erica really wanted a bio kid, so she ended up marrying another linsang who she liked... well enough, but not that much. they get divorced when jamie's a little kid. she had jamie at an older age; by the time he's in college her markings have already started greying, which is why she looks a little dull next to him. nowadays she works as a teacher and she loves her son vewy much :3

SANTIAGO: santiago is the only one in the main cast with different species parents. cross-species kids are just the species of either parent with a 50/50 chance cus i don't feel like dealing with hybrids... HOWEVER sometimes genetic fuckshit happens. because of said genetic fuckshit, santiago grew to a cow size instead of a sheep size. i couldn't fit all the family relations shit on the actual image but emilio is santiago's OLDER brother (hes 25) but people always assume hes younger because santiago is a giant. magnolia and amapola are twins and both 8. mariana is either a teacher or a librarian (haven't figured it out yet) but she used to paint when she had more free time which is how santiago got interested in painting and eventually went into fine arts. jorge is a plumber and emilio is a graphic designer. santiago is the first in the family to leave their hometown (key west) for a degree (emilio went to a local college) and his mom + sisters were SOOOOOOOOOO SAD so he comes home to visit as often as he can. also since he is in family bovidae he has several cousins/aunts and uncles/etc that are different species. all i know for sure is that one of them lives near jamie and co's college and is some sort of antelope (leaning towards bongo bc i like them). also using this poast to announce that i changed santiagos outfit here is his new cute flowers and bees sweater look

JOHNNY: her family works on a chicken (and other assorted birds) farm, the chickens are for both eggs and meat while the other birds are just for eggs. this is actually a common set-up in the dorian furryverse, it's hard to farm livestock as a carnivore (because all the livestock are deathly afraid of you) so herbivores usually do the job even if they can't actually eat what they farm. johnny's parents are sorta "confused but got the spirit" about her being a butch lesbian. jimmy is an ass about it but he gets better. shoutout to this horse color calculator for helping me figure out which coat colors were plausible for them

NULL: null has an older brother and does not talk to their parents. sakichi is six years older than null and they were never very close; their parents treated sakichi as the "successful" child and null as the "problem" child. they're also quite conservative. null realized they were agender in high school but stayed closeted at home, they planned to come out to their parents immediately once they got to college and were able to support themselves. something happens that instead makes them come out a few days after their graduation and they get kicked out. null doesn't know where to go and ends up living at johnny's farm for the summer before college (sakichi lives far away doing some tech job and so can't take them in). the clantons are basically null's family at this point. once null legally changes their name they remove their last name entirely (it probably says X on their documents just cus there has to be SOMETHING there). sakichi and null see each other very occasionally, and sakichi still talks to their parents, but only when absolutely necessary. it's not malicious, he'd just feel too guilty cutting himself off from them completely

ARGYLE: argyle is an only child with well-off parents, his mom is a lawyer and his dad is a quirky ancient history professor. his parents are like EXTREMELY doting so they were secretly kinda glad that he came back home so they could see him more often. argyle was really scared that they would hate him for going into a less stable field, but his parents love him to death and are ready to support him in whatever. suzanne was probably a nightmare at pta meetings i'll be so real

oooo is td gonna have an IDW situation where it's like Leo's dark Leo split personality by the aftermath? Maye that;d be cool

I'm not going to do that.

I know you have good intentions, but as the host of an OSDD system, I want to tell you that this isn't right.

I have a lot of feelings about IDW's whole Dark Leo situation after the events of City Fall story arc. Though, even regardless of those feelings, there are very few situations where giving a character an evil alter sits right with me (which is to say, I've seen good hypothetical story ideas from other systems, but never one from a notable published work).

In the way you're suggesting, this is not one that sits right.

This is a tired, harmful trope that I do not wish to include in my work.

I am not saying you are a bad person who meant to inflict harm. I simply wish to inform you as someone who has been harmed by the various misconceptions relating to those like us.

[toytulini]

if you draw enough monster ocs, when you go back to drawing a human character, it feels like "sameface syndrome" everytime, by virtue of their face being. human.

Hi we're sorry if this is so random and like out of place I am trying to keep myself calm because I am like at my wit's end and I think my only tether to being calm is that Pearl is next to me

I wanted to ask if like. What Pearl is doing could be considered co-fronting? She's just. Always next to me. Over my shoulder clinging to me what have you. It feels different than let's say Ula/Garnet or anyone else lurking in the front room because I am keenly aware of ze's presence from the moment I wake up.

The thing is we were told this is co-conscious which literally makes no sense because that's just, literally not possible we are mono. And we're legit stressed out by this because Pearl is technically my fronting buddy and we both believe she is wholeheartedly in co-front but being told otherwise made me way too angry.

I'm so sorry if this is random but we thought about asking y'all since you're also a median system

(Sorry for lack of tone tags I rlly don't know the tone of this)

- Yellow Pearl

disclaimer, whether we're entirely a median is questionable because some of us are more connected than others. that being said, i myself can largely cross all memory and conciousness barriers so i kind of get the experience. also the exact definition of cocon and cofront are kinda blurry so i think its up to interp.

if pearl's kind of watching over your shoulder without controlling the body and you can communicate with each other with semi-clear distinction of whose thoughts are whose

(ie; autopsy is kinda watching me type this, and he knows whats going on and will probably remeber this. i can tell that Autopsy specifically wants oreos, even though i dont particularly crave them)

then yeah, i'd consider that being in cofront, and what youre describing sounds like that. no worried ab the lack of tone tags, i tend to take things neutrally if they dont have any ttgs. hoped his helped and you guys feel better :) /gen

Hi other filipino that likes laishuro how are you

HELLO fellow filipino that likes laishuro im doing great how are you!!!!!

[fleouriarts]

NEW CHARACTER ALERT... everyone say hi to OMAR!!!!! spotted cuscus, 19, any pronouns, jamie's friend and santiago's roommate

more info and doodles under the cut

so originally i made her just cus i wanted a spotted cuscus oc. and who can blame me these are fucking cartoon animals

but i have ALSO been wanting to develop jamie and santiago more... i originally made santiago as just 'jamie's nice new boyfriend' and didn't develop him further than that which made me bored with him. i have retooled him a bit and he will get his own post soon. but all that is to say that omar is now the reason jamie and santiago met. omar and jamie became friends in freshman year cus they're both in the animation program, omar becomes santiago's roommate in sophomore year, jamie meets santiago at their place and by winter break they're already dating

ok now for more about omar herself. they're a visual artist doing album covers/promo stuff for some in-universe digicore group. think something like webcage but with a smaller roster. i have to draw what his artstyle actually looks like at some point but just know it's very silly and geometric. she is also both a geccer AND a drainer to represent the several people i saw with "DRAIN THIS ⬇️ GANG THAT ⬇️" shirts at the 100 gecs concert i went to

and here are the doodles. omar is 4'9" which means jamie continues to be the smallest mfer in this cast LOL
