Introducing! ELESA, the new kid on the block! She's a tiny bedraggled child from Sinnoh and not all that familiar with Galarian, the spoken language in Unova. (One day she'll be amazing. Right now though, she just wants to go play in the mud. And maybe get a better set of hearing aids.)
When not bitterly lonely, she’s scheming to run back to her old home. Or chasing the local patrat. Or watching nervously from the sidelines as other children play on the swings. Oh elesa. (loosely inspired by @/noxstrages' incredible comics about elesa's origins! Ty for the food.)
Masterpost to my submas comics!
#art#pokemon#sketchbook#submas#myart#fanart#gym leader elesa#blitzle#nimbasa trio#elesa#character design#baby elesa is a nightmare to work with but im happy with this draft!#her clothes are supposed to be more sinnoh fashioned#and with time she slowly integrates more and more unovan clothing inspiration into her work#one day she's going to realize everything she works on is entirely unovan. and it's gonna hurt.#(i feel like part of her modeling and costume designing stuff in the future would be her trying to reclaim some of that history)#((but also the inherent tragedy of forgetting kantonese because she tries so hard to integrate into unova makes me feel things))#(((only projecting on elesa a bit. i promise)))

subtext is an avenue for plausible deniability to worm its way into your art imo
#liliths mind#this is an opinion#you are allowed to disagree#re: fascists trying to reclaim starship troopers THE SATIRICAL MOVIE for themselves over on twitter#subtext (yes even as blatant as ST THE SATIRICAL MOVIEs subtext) can always be ignored if the viewer doesnt want to see it#im sure a lot of u have had internet fights over 'this character is/isnt gay' that stopped immediately as soon as the gay became canon

god i love tos as much as the next guy but there are episodes that are so hard to watch cause of the misogyny and crazy cultural appropriation. and you can use "oh it was the 60s" as an excuse for only so long
#star trek#st tos#star trek tos#thats why in fanworks deconstructing these characters and reshaping them into queer and diverse people is so important to me#its like reclaiming them#jim kirk is now my oc and hes trans and hes bi and also a feminist fuck you gene roddenfucks

I’ve been thinking about The Promise again, and it’s really interesting to me how the narrative tries to frame Zuko as the “dark” character once again, despite the fact that Aang was the one considering banning interracial relationships and supporting the Earth Kingdom in invading Yu Dao (which most of the people living there did not want).
In canon, Aang only changed his stance on interracial relationships after realizing it would affect him personally. But consider this—what if Katara wasn’t interested in Aang at that point. What if she was with someone else?
It would be interesting to explore how that would change the plot.
#also people act like zuko wanted to reclaim yu dao for the fire nation#he didn’t#he was responding to kuei trying to take over#at the request of the yu dao citizens#if anything he was fighting for their independence#but yah sure he’s the evil dark edgy character#atla#atla comics#zutara#zuko#aang critical#canon critical#anti kataang#avatar the last airbender

Hyperfeminine characters 🥰🥰🥰
Hyperfeminine characters who aren't portrayed as stupid, vapid or vain 🥰🥰 Hyperfeminine characters who genuinely enjoy quote unquote feminine interests and aren't vilified or looked down upon because of them 🥰🥰 Hyperfeminine characters who are big on female friendships rather than thrown into jealousy and "cat fight" arcs 🥰 Hyperfeminine characters whose deep interest in fashion isn't considered superficial and silly, but interesting and respectable! 🥰 Hyperfeminine characters who aren't the butt of the joke and who are well-rounded characters with depth 🥰🥰
#IDK how to tag this#but basically#more elle woods#also hyperfeminine characters include characters who arent female presenting#i'm just!!!!!!!!!! reclaiming hyperfeminine characters!!!!!!#cause!!!!!!! you can be hyperfeminine and badass and clever and intelligent and kind and interesting and ALL SORTS OF THINGS#you know what she IS like other girls#and what about it#like girls aren't :')))))))))) amazing :')))))))#anyway#imma write all the hyperfeminine people I can#mine

something something the way Halo gets to decide they're nonbinary in Earth's context while the human hijabi girl's body they stole gets no say in how she identifies...it's the way we get only the superficial layer of queer hijabi rep but none of the culture or intersection attached to it... color me unimpressed by it all
#ramblings#jesncin watches YJa#and ofc u can absolutely wear a hijab and be enby/transmasc/anything. my friends reclaim this stuff all the time#but gabrielle didn't get the choice to self identify the way my hijabi friends get to. an alien took that choice away from her.#it's like when the watchmen show racebent doc manhattan by taking the appearance of a Black dead man's body. stealing the bodies of-#-marginalized lives and passing off as them with no context of their lived history and life. not a fan of this trope#hits harder on characters of color in a really messed up way

Just adding some Gale appreciation.
He really is a joy to meet and talk to. I love hearing his perspective on magic and the ways he understands it more intimately than most. He has an incredibly sweet romance that took me by surprise. It was very easy to like him, awkward man posing as an accomplished intellectual... all the while hiding a literal bomb of magic in his chest, compliments of his hubris with a goddess.
His character is tied so well into his arc, and it was so cute with moments of potential shipteasing with him. Absolutely adorable man.
I want to also appreciate his friendship route for a moment as someone who also feels despair, and who ponders death to a probably distressing degree. I love both the romance and the friendship route and would absolutely romance him again, but that night in Act 2 is so special to my heart as someone who has stayed up with friends and they did the same for me when things were too hard.
Gale Dekarios reminds me that there is still beauty in the world, and that platonic love exists, and it feels peaceful for a little while again.
#bg3#baldur's gate 3#gale dekarios#gale of waterdeep#my writing#i'm so glad he at least had Tara#fucking autocorrect lmao#my wonderful friends were never a burden#the fact they wanted me to be with them during such a hard time was a blessing#btw I also say hubris in the context of the first few times the pc and Gale can speak on it#but I agree Mystra watching this boy from age 8 and on is grooming#she would know how to manipulate him#and even before I reached that conclusion#my bardlock thought of how... EASY that would be#he's impressive and reclaims his intimacy just as much as other characters

Sometimes I forget that Flatland is something I can interpret as my own thing so I'ma do that now.
Ik these look very inspired by Flatland 2007, cuz they lowkey are, but I just really like how A. Sphere looks I'm sorry (ik the creator is bad but I can't help the brainworms). I wanted to add quirks tho so it's better imo. My versions of the characters if you will. More fun to draw for me and less ugly (on A. Square's end).
They have actual names and design purposes for each thing. Abel's glove to prevent contamination into himself from Flatland, Anthony's glasses and front hairs being makeshift arms, all that has a reason lol.
More explanations of stuff below cut:
The Flatland parts of Flatland the book stay the same mostly. I'm not changing much there. I do want to flesh out Spaceland tho, so I'ma do that cuz I'm super self-indulgent.
In my version of Flatland, I think it would've been fuunier if out of frustration, Abel Spherious ("A Sphere"), grabbed Anthony Squaur ("A Square") out of Flatland and yoinked him out without thinking about the consequences. He realizes shortly after that he probably shouldn't have done that, and it will probably have horrendous consequences later down the line.
Abel almost kills Anthony on accident, so uh, yikes. But then after bringing him out of Flatland, he decides to work with it, taking him back to his office to do his report on Flatland. He sorta keeps him hidden, but on the last day Anthony gets leaked to the public and the war starts over it rip. However, the span that this is like 3 days, so they get time to chat and develop communication skills n stuff.
Also, since the gravity is so harsh on Anthony's body, he struggles with talking, only emerging little squeaks. Eventually he's able to use a device to get his thoughts across (probably like a telegraph or smth), so the first day or so of being out of Flatland was a terrible time for communication. Especially when you're so entranced with the idea of seeing your "god's" insides.
Also, Abel just kinda finds Anthony gross in general (cuz he looks like a bacteria) and rejects all advances until Anthony learn to properly yap though morse code. When Anthony writes the Flatland novel, Abel translates it for the world of Spaceland to read and not want to obliterate Flatland. However, that is after his misadventures in the fourth dimension (boo a Heightlander's Escape reference tomato tomato).
These are some studies of the two. I really like the hairs on Anthony, it makes him so much more expressive. Also, Abel is a slaying king, I love him sm.
Also, Abel is like the last person who should be in charge of a company. That shit goin down the drain in a week I swear (he came to work high every day his first month of being CEO). I'll probably change the name a lil I just have to cook.
Also, silly joke of how Anthony and Abel met lol.
Have a good one broskies :)))
#why must all the creators i admire end up being shitty people like UGHHHHHHHHHH#oh well ig that means i can adopt their characters and make them mine <3333#this is how ima be drawing my flatland-related content from now on#ig this is a kind of reclaiming? similar to what got me hooked on the movie in the first place lol#and yes this leads into a heightlander's escape whatchu think i am? loyal to the source material?#i mean i kinda am but i like the sphere more than a square in the book anyway so womp womp#i love these designs tho i think i cooked#koy's flatland#flatland#tagging extra stuff for reach lol#flatland au#flatland 2007#flatland the movie#flatland the film#a square#a sphere#abel spherious#anthony squaur#doodles#a heightlander's escape#katiekatdragon27

Why do you like vampires specifically, what do you like of them?
the sucking and fucking
#ask#also many several deep complex reasons#and if i were to divulge into them i would actually never shut up#its the. vampyrisim being a metaphore for otherness. for queerness#them being originally created (in europe at least) to be cruel representations of jewish people - immigrants and eastern europeans - and#these people reclaiming them. the reclamation of vampires to be the 'others' the ones that are ostracized by society#and people finding solidarity in that. vampires are queer their entire mythology is inherently queer as well so its beautiful in its own wa#vampires were transformed from cruel caricatures with intent to portray the fears of xenophobic english men to#complex deeply thought-out characters that embrace their differences from 'humanity' and live in their true identity#remember when i said “i cant delve into this otherwise i wont stop talking” yeah sorry it happened anyway

“that character can’t be aplatonic: they’re actually lonely and hate not having friends but are lying to themselves; you clearly misinterpreted the material and fell for their cold, loner facade they built out of self-denial of their true feelings—”
wrong! *fires the apple cannon at you* 🍎🍏🍎🍏🍎🍏
#aplatonic#i see this constantly and want to strangle everyone who comments this every time a loner character is headcanoned as aplatonic#fun fact! it’s a headcanon! and some do it to go against platonormative bullshit that media and society perpetuate#idgaf if the character is canonically in denial about wanting friends or experiencing platonic attraction#a lot of apls are tired of this trope and enjoy reclaiming characters like this#how come when a character dates the other binary gender it’s okay to hc them as comphet lesbian or gay#but if a character is lonely and friendless they aren’t allowed to be aplatonic?#fandom double standards#aplphobia#platonormativity#✨

welp. theres the realization that i have to filter thru who likes my posts to make sure everyone who supports the brighton biter is blocked LMFAO. if you support him get the fuck off my page dude!!! why are u even here anymore !!! i can 100% confirm that while other characters from the dsmp might appear in future works, i am never drawing him- even just his character- in the future!!
#obligatory <3 to everyone reclaiming the character/s#as long as u dont support the cc ily and love that the community is still alive#fanart and fanfics still bring me great joy in a more private way now#just personally cant bring myself to draw him- esp since. clearly. there are remaining 'supporters' on this page#if ur one of them and you see this please understand i dislike you viscerally and want to siphon out any prior joy my works may have given u
