#stop erasing women personalities pls

[mooneith]

I have to say it but I don't like what many people say about female content creators. "You're so pretty" "omg cute" "you're the best". Like.... guys, maybe you should idk expand your vocabulary and treat women better? I don't say that complimenting isn't okay. I say you should broaden your outlook and start noticing the little details about them, share your feelings about their content. You can always say "i love your content! (video/art/story/etc)" "i love how you are doing this and that" "i enjoy watching/reading you" and so on instead of "you're so cute" and stuff like that. I hope you've got the point.

it’s wincest Wednesday pls tell me ur Deanpreg headcanons

they find out on a hunt. dean’s been getting sick for weeks and sam is worried there’s something actually wrong with him, until their next case…….…..where some kind of monster is targeting pregnant women, and goes after Dean next

dean insists there’s some other supernatural explanation, but fails every test he runs, every splash of holy water, touch of silver. sam books him for an ultrasound under a fake name and dean is awestruck as he looks at the screen

dean isn’t just hungry, he’s ravenous. at restaurants he inhales his own food and then immediately starts working on sam’s plate. sam has to start ordering two meals

sam tries to convince him to take a break from hunting but he patently refuses. they compromise: sam does all the heavy lifting, dean wears a bulletproof vest and stays behind sam at all times. sam responds with aggravated, possessive sex on the occasions dean doesn’t follow the agreement

dean pretends like he’s indifferent but sam catches him on early mornings and late nights doing furious research, and dean bless his soul has no idea that he’s supposed to erase his browser history. he’s reading up on pregnancy like he’s writing a dissertation, and in the later months on parenting.

bobby is the first person they tell. they drive to his house in pensive silence to show him fresh ultrasound photos. he didn’t know about the two of them before, but maybe it’s bc he always knew that he doesnt bring it up as he stares down at the grainy images, a clear foot visible in some of them. when they leave, they let him keep the photos. he tapes them on his fridge

they discuss names late at night with the motel lights off, pressed together in bed. sam flatly rejects john or mary, says it would be like tempting fate. dean reminds him it’s coming out of him, and he’ll name the damn thing Godzilla if he so chooses. sam agrees to allow them as middle names

when he starts to get big, sam puts his foot down on hunting. the next time they visit bobby, dean realizes sam has been colluding with bobby to set up a nursery in a spare room. he agrees to stop hunting after that

dean gets too big to fit behind the wheel of the impala, and at first he’s grumpy but it turns out he really likes being sam’s passenger princess, takes frequent naps. one of sam’s hands always, always rests on dean’s belly as he drives

the day he goes into labor sam is in full panic mode. they don’t even have a car seat for gods sake. dean watches half-amused from a motel sofa while sam bounces around the room collecting their things, not wanting to forget anything dean might need. they’re on the road for 10 minutes when sam turns around because he’s convinced he’s forgotten dean’s favorite pair of sweatpants—sam’s sweatpants—in the bathroom. dean manages to refrain from teasing him until they get to the hospital and it’s revealed it’s actually false labor. sam is mortified

a nurse mentions in passing that sex can help jumpstart the real thing, and dean is suddenly in a rush to get back to the motel before checkout time

Icl, I’m just seeing the post that everyone is going on about and while I do believe that transmisogyny (and transmisogynoir- I wrote an entire long-form essay my junior year of highschool about this problem actually and I do think that there’s more acceptance to transmascs in general bc- drumroll pls- patriarchy and men thinking its cute that some women would want to “be men” even tho that's like not how it works- whatever. Point is, intersectionality sucks ass when it comes to oppression and our transfem babies usually get the brunt of it bc terfs and patriarchy and transphobia- read my dissertation when I find it) is making the lesbian community hostile and unwelcoming to transfems, I- a non-binary lesbian- have never felt coddled or welcomed into the lesbian space outside of finding your blog actually. When I first was coming to terms with my gender and how I wasn’t sure if I identified as a woman but knew I didn't feel like a man, I remember so clearly having a conversation in the comments of one of those 2019-2020 lgbt/lesbian safe space instagram pages and it was lesbian visibility week and I had commented “hey am I like still allowed to identify as a lesbian if I’m afab non-binary” and there was just comment after comment telling me things like no, read the lesbian manifesto, lesbian is wlw you’re not a lesbian anymore bc you aren't a woman anymore, and amongst it all was ONE one singular person who explained that I could still identify with lesbian however there was actually a flag and term for nblw and that was trixic. From that day on, that was what I identified with. When family members ask, I say I’m queer. When people my age, in the community or not, ask, I say trixic or non-binary lesbian. To this day, I sometimes feel unwelcome among lesbians bc there are many out there who still think the way those people did, but like one of the anons said, the problem with transfem/masc/nonbinary acceptance is more nuanced and boils down to transphobia as a whole if we want to just make it black and white. I hope this didn't come off as me trying to make the convo about me and enby ppl and our struggle but like that other anon said that post felt very black and white and tone wise it felt a little erasive to me. I don't see why we have to erase the struggle of other trans people in the community to uplift and start changing the struggle for another. It’s like the suffragettes doing everything in their power to stop the same black people they helped free from getting the vote before them. It’s a battle of the oppressed when solidarity matters so much more. Instead of saying “well this group has it worse, include them more” we could’ve just said something like “if we’ve got people genuinely thinking about making the lesbian community a safer space for non-women, we can make it a safer space for the women as well, trans or otherwise.” Anyway, i’ve typed and said enough I think so yeah… my thoughts. Be nice about them, I’m willing to take constructive conversation about them.

oh mars, this broke my heart reading. first of all i'm glad this blog has become a safe space for you, and second of all i'm so sorry you went through what was probably a horribly isolating experience on that insta page.

yeah i think i could see how that post was a little black and white-- especially coming from your perspective where you yourself have been unwelcome in lesbian spaces because you're nonbinary. it's like you said: trans women are at that unique intersection of transphobia and misogyny, and i think the main point of that post was supposed to be that even in the most 'inclusive' spaces, trans women can still be unwelcome. but i agree with what you said, comparing oppression to find the biggest victim isn't productive at all, and solidarity is the key!!

t3rfs once again prove to be some of the most obtuse people in the world

[bisluthq]

Hey! I'm fairly new here and I have a pretty uncommon take on Kaylor. But I just wanna start off by saying I try my best to be as supportive of LGBT people as possible and if they're both bisexual, then I would be 100% okay with that! I'm not trying to "defend their heterosexuality" or anything, I think that's really weird

Okay, so my personal theory is that Kaylor did happen, but that Taylor and Karlie are both straight. I know that might sound contradictory, but I say this based on my own personal experiences based on how I am with my best friend. I think Karlie and Taylor's relationship might have been similar in some ways to ours

Right, so I'm straight and I'm not into women in the gay kind of way (but it's completely cool that some girls are), and I have this roommate who's gorgeous. Really gorgeous, she's like a 10/10 "I would sell my kidney to look like you" kind of girl. She's very attractive, she has like tan skin and long legs and gorgeous brown hair and pretty eyes and nice lips and just like… she's just very good looking. I'm definitely jealous of her body, I won't even pretend I'm not 😪 I lowkey hate her because of it (jk)

We've been living together since not long before COVID started, and we're very good friends. There were three of us before, but our other roommate went back home to stay with her parents until in person classes are back on and we agreed to it and worked something out because she has really bad anxiety so we understood her reasoning for it

Anyway so it's just been us two and because we've been at home a lot during this time instead of out for most of the day like before, we've gotten to know each other a lot better and have become a lot closer. We were already friends from before, but now we're like super close besties, we've been hanging out a lot together and playing board games, watching movies, helping each other with essays, just having long conversations about anything and everything, etc

Like it's been so nice having a best friend that I can be this close to now because I haven't had a best friend since I was a kid

So my friend and I were having like a conversation last year about how hard it's been in quarantine not being able to go on dates and how we miss kissing people, and so we decided to just like, make out for fun you know. I mean, there's not really anything that's inherently romantic or sexual about making out, that's just society that says that. But tbh I think making out with your friends if you want to should be normalized, it's fun and it can even be emotional sometimes. It's not that different from hugging people

After a couple of weeks or so, I think we got bored of just making out with each other and decided to like, fully hook up. It started off because we were modelling lingerie for each other for banter and were pretending we were each other's runway judges and then I think we just decided to hook up with each other as like part of the whole "game". I can't remember who initiated it now, I think it might have been me as a joke lol

Like just in a platonic way for fun, as a kind of substitute until we can go back into society

And tbh I always expected hooking up with a woman to be like mediocre and boring and awkward, but although it was a bit hard to get the hang of at first and there was a learning curve, it's actually very enjoyable. Like I was very surprised actually at how hot it can be, I think I can maybe see why bisexual women and lesbians like doing it

Anyway we both liked it and we just carried on hooking up on the regular and it's been like 8 months now and tbh I just think it's very sweet and heartwarming, like it actually makes me feel a little emotional how we're close enough and care about each other enough that we can even help each other out with the physical intimacy side of things so that we don't get sexually frustrated while we're stuck in lockdown

I just think it's really cool and we even sleep in the same bed most of the time now because tbh what's the point in sleeping alone when you can sleep in the same bed as someone else? It's nicer, like you can cuddle and stuff

Anyway, I think that maybe Kaylor's relationship might have been similar. I think they're both straight but they became really close friends in a short space of time, and that their friendship was so intense that it became physical but in a platonic way

I think lesbians and bisexual women are amazing and I have so much respect for you guys for accepting yourselves in a society that tries to erase you, and I think there definitely needs to be more wlw representation on TV and in movies

But at the same time, I would also like there to be more close female friendships like the one that me and my friend have where you can just talk about everything together and do things that society usually reserves for romantic partners, but in a platonic way. Because female friendship is really important and beautiful, whether that's between straight women like me and my friend who I think is probably straight too, or between queer women because one thing I've learnt during my short time on this blog is how queer women can have very close platonic friendships with other queer women too

I think society just has overly strict ideas of "straight" and "gay". Like for some people, they would hear about two women sleeping together and think "Oh that's gay", but not necessarily because straight women can enjoy sleeping with other women too, like it's normal 🤷‍♀️

I think it's just a result of women being a lot more physically beautiful than men are, like straight women really got the short end of the stick tbh compared to straight men

I also think it's because women are so oversexualized in the media, and obviously straight girls see that too and so we sort of internalize that attraction to women because we're so used to seeing women being presented in a sexual way? Except it's not real attraction with us like how it is for queer girls

Like I'm very much "attracted" to my friend, she's genuinely stunning and just very hot tbh. But I still identify as straight because it's just a case of what I mentioned above, it's a "fake" attraction. And also because men are afraid to compliment other men because it's seen as "gay", but women can be fully confident in their sexuality and still recognize other women's beauty and sex appeal. You see it all the time in instagram comments, and I really love how we're all so supportive of each other like that

Like I can be fully confident in my sexuality and yet still say that some women like my friend are gorgeous as hell and also 100 times better looking than most men I've seen. I'm very much obsessed with some women's appearances but in a platonic way

And I just love the concept of "girl crushes" and I think that from a feminism viewpoint, it's beautiful that we're focusing on other girls and showing love towards other girls too, instead of just to men who, let's be real, don't even fully appreciate it half of the time

I am going to be sad when we all have to return to life as usual and my friend and I won't be able to spend as much time together anymore. I'm dreading it tbh, I don't want it to end yet. And it really sucks that the physical side of our friendship will probably have to stop too once our other roommate comes back because I think she'd definitely misunderstand the situation and think it's something different than it actually is if she ever saw us kissing or something. I really am going to miss it a lot though, I really like how things currently are and it's just really really nice and I don't want it to change :/

Btw I'm sorry if I sounded fetishistic or offensive with any of this, I just get a bit jealous sometimes that you guys get to date girls and we're just stuck with men. Honestly if it wasn't for all of the homophobia and the struggles that you all have to face and the fact that it would feel disrespectful to the LGBT community, I would probably really wish I could change my sexuality to be bisexual or gay instead because I just think women are better. Sometimes I really do wish I was into women in that way because dating girls just sounds so much more appealing to me (in a non fetishizing weird way) but unfortunately I'm stuck with dating men 🤦‍♀️ But I also know I'm lucky and privileged to be straight even though most men are mediocre and kinda gross and I don't mean to be disrespectful because I know you all have to face homophobia and other LGBT difficulties and it really sucks, people are awful. There's nothing wrong with women dating women or men dating men at all, society is just ugly and bigoted

Anyway, does anybody else have a similar sort of take on Kaylor where they think they could have both been straight and just had a very close friendship with a physical side to it? I think it would explain a lot. But like I said, this is just a theory of mine based on my own situation, and I'm also open to the idea that it was an actual relationship and that they're both into women for real, not just fake "into women" like I am.

Also pls feel free to call me out if I accidentally said anything offensive towards LGBT people, I tried my best but if I made a mistake anywhere pls let me know and I'll avoid it next time!

You’re not offensive. Please stop apologizing. And we’re gonna come back to the Kaylor stuff another time because... Honey. You and I need to have a conversation for a bit.

So firstly, I’m not trying to like “diagnose” you and at the end of the day it’s your choice what you want to call yourself but... tbh you might not be straight. Sexuality is fluid not static and exists on a spectrum not in absolutes. It’s not like it’s straight, 50/50 bi, gay and you’re born knowing and there’s no room for anything else. That’s not true. There’s a lot of room in between all of these and labels can change over time. We’re people, not cereal brands, and sometimes we don’t even KNOW the word for what we might be. I’m tagging a tag for you from when we asked people to share their label journeys for you to see. It’s not simple or easy and it’s not just because of external stuff - it’s because figuring this out internally is HARD. If you found yourself having such an intense friendship it became physical, repeatedly, you liked it a lot, you still sleep in the same bed and continue to share all your thoughts and you don’t want any of that to end... I’m not sure you’re Kinsey 0. And I think you might lowkey have a girlfriend dude. 

You can obviously prefer men but like... hun I reaaallly don’t think you’re completely straight.

Also: it’s okay to say “I see myself winding up with a man and this is a situationship for right now!” but that doesn’t make you straight because again, sexuality is a spectrum and you can manifest a particular kind of endgame while experiencing other things along the way.

But here’s where you really got me: “most men are mediocre and kinda gross” and “women being a lot more physically beautiful than men are, like straight women really got the short end of the stick tbh compared to straight men” because that’s the kind of thing I used to say in my Bi 1.0 era before I ID’d as a lesbian for a bit and before Harry Styles (KING 🥺) made me bi for real. Hun, no. Straight women like men. Tbh BI women like men. I genuinely, unironically, find Harry and Timmy and Matt Smith to be sexy beasts and I would do dirty things to the former two but maybe not the latter irl in 2021 but yes also him if I could be on that Spain trip with him and Karen where they got sloshed and which I think of often. These men are genuinely fucking beautiful to me in the same way Taylor is and Di Silvers is (okay she’s prettier than all of them but like same ~vibe) and like Megan Thee Stallion is and Indira Varma in everything but especially GOT and Gillian Anderson and Keira Knightley. Like those women are HOT to me and SO. ARE. THE. MEN. 

Straight women find SO MANY DUDES hot. So many. Starting from objectively pretty options I just cannot personally understand like Chris Evans all the way through to bitches who are outchea simping for wrestlers and Cole Sprouse. Do I understand? No. But like... that’s straight girl culture and ours is not to judge. 

If you’re struggling to find men hot then... you might be gay.

Also, I’m not sure what you mean by “fake attraction”. Like queer women - especially femme women which I assume you very much are - experience the same kinds of feelings straight girls do. We have women we want to be like and look like and find enviable (me and Oenone Forbat) and women we find aesthetically gorgeous (me and Anya Taylor Joy) and we have extremely close female friends who we can spend hours on end spilling our guts to - as you say female friendships are truly special - and without going into personal people that you don’t know, that’s me and Cam and Sim right? I literally talk to them for hours. Like those are not gay feelings. And yes we can chat about those kinds of feelings with straight girls and call them “girl crushes” and not immediately get “caught out” because they experience this exact shit too.

But here’s the thing. They never do and I don’t want in the cases above to fuck these women. It’s not sexual.

The moment I can actually imagine fucking the women in question that’s... gay. 

Like it’s not “fake attraction” it’s literally just gay. That’s how we desire women. We want to fuck them. Not all women. Not always. But sometimes we want to get under or on top of one and just really truly fucking make each other moan with pleasure.

I have no idea if Karlie or Taylor are into women. They could both literally be straight. I have no idea.

But I have a better idea about you.

Hun, you’re fucking your roommate/best friend and don’t want to stop.

You’re not “into women”.

You’re into this woman.

And possibly into women more generally.

So I know it’s weird to have to be the one to tell you this, and if you want to keep chatting via anon or in my DMs or if you want me to try collate resources for you from around the web but...

Like.

Dude.

You’re a whole ass part of the rainbow.

Welcome to the community you thought you weren’t a part of earlier today 🌈 ❤️

It’s nice here, sure there’s homophobia, but at least we get to fuck girls and man is it good.

[army-of-mai-lovers]

Hi, Ace Toph hc anon here! I totally agree people should be able to hc characters however they choose! Hc Toph as an aroace lesbian, ace, and a demiro lesbian are really great hcs and completely valid. I think it’s kind of comparable to ppl writing Bolin and Asami as cis in fan works. It’s like woah I forgot that ppl think of character as ‘xyz’ haha. Your wording is great and I get the point you’re conveying! I apologize for the long text I went on a rant too lol.

The biphobia in this fandom sometimes. I swear it’s palpable on so many different levels. My friend (a lesbian) paints Asami and Korra as lesbians and honestly I don’t get it. They’re both attracted to men AND women? Again people can have their hc’s but it’s really hurtful to erase bi representation in media. Like a while back she identified as bisexual and I thought she would understand that making/ enjoying jokes like “lol Mako turns all of his exes lesbian” to be super biphobic and not very funny. Or when people say they ship Wuko bc Mako deserves to suffer. Can we stop using the reason people/characters are lgbtq+ bc men have done them wrong in relationships or deserve “dealing with someone just as bad.”

Also 100% my hc is Zuko being bi you’re not alone! While they’re not my otp I definitely think he had genuine (romantic) feelings for Mai and other women he dated. But again that’s up for a person to speculate as comphet or not. The problem, like you said, definitely arises when there’s a double standard for people being adamant about hc men as gay and hesitant/against women as lesbians. I get when people say it’s somewhat stereotypical for Toph to be a lesbian but there ARE women that identify as lesbian that fit being tough, strong, and ngc. Like she fits the sort of aro/ace, butch vibe. AND THERES NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT. I’m tired of people acting like being butch is something negative! Ngc lesbians should be able to be hc in the fandom. You know what I redact my earlier statement on hc Toph as just ace. I definitely see Toph being an aro, aroace, or a demiro lesbian 😤😤😤!

People can hc what they want but don’t hold double standards. It’s funny how like you said ppl hc Wu and Zuko as 1000% gay (imo bc of stereotypical actions/characteristics). But turn around and say that others shouldn’t hc characters as lesbians bc of stereotypes and characteristics/point out canonical events disproving the hc of said lesbian character.

Pls tell me if I got misunderstood or interpreted what you said in an inaccurate way. Thank you for discussing! Also I’m sorry this is so long!!! I enjoy your content so thank you for your opinion on this topic :D

oh anon this is so thoughtful thank you so much! you understood EXACTLY what I was saying and I’m so glad bc I was honestly a little afraid to say it. the analogy to people writing Bolin and Asami as cis is a great one, I get so into my own hcs that I forget sometimes that people don’t have the same one that I do. 

OH MY FUCKING GOSH THE BIPHOBIA IN THIS FANDOM. I HATE IT SO MUCH. I am not bisexual myself but I have friends who are and just in general seeing someone else be shit on for the way they identify pisses me off. Honestly, the Korra and Asami situation is one of the few where I do think “having your own hcs” is harmful, just because bisexual representation (esp bisexual representation of women of color) is so rare and I do think it’s erasure to interpret them as not having been genuinely attracted to Mako. Further, I agree the joke of “Mako turned Korra and Asami into lesbians” is super not funny, in part bc I am a Mako stan but also bc lesbians have had a history of our attraction being attributed to trauma or bad relationships w men and that is a trope I would rather not contribute to!

and yes bi Zuko!!!!! I def agree that he had genuine, romantic feelings for Mai (now, whether she had genuine, romantic feelings for him is a whole nother question). and yes I don’t understand the issue with hcing her as a lesbian? I mean I guess if your only lesbian hcs are Toph and Azula I would maybe encourage you to question your thought process, but the people I’ve largely seen make lesbian hcs about Toph or Azula also have them for other female atla characters (for my part, I also hc Mai and Ty Lee as lesbians). and people acting as if being a butch lesbian is a negative thing is SUCH AN ISSUE, not just in this fandom but in all kinds of spaces!!! being a butch lesbian is a wonderful thing to be!!! I hope all the butch lesbians reading this are having a wonderful day!!! 

and yeah it’s,,,,,interesting. for the record, I def also hc Wu as gay, but I find it so interesting that it’s a problem for people to hc Toph as a lesbian because it’s “stereotypical” but it’s fine for people to hc Wu as gay??? like honestly I just want people to be consistent but they never are. 

and omg thank you so much for sending me this ask!!!! this was a lovely discussion!

"Hi, love. It's day 73," You said to the camera as you stand on the top of the Marlboro Hills. "I'm here atop of the Marlboro Hills, and would very much like to share this moment with you."

"Wait here, I'll turn the camera around so that you can see the view even though you've viewed it a thousand times already," You turned the camera around so that it's facing the other way. You zoomed it in front of you, down to the beach with its clear water and white sand. You turned around showing the camera what's happening in your back. Tourists are all over the place clutching their scarves and hats just so it won't be caught in the strong wind. You laugh a little and faced the camera the other way catching the face of a man. A man, so beautiful with his curly brown hair and brown eyes. When he caught your camera, he smirked and smiled.

You quickly turned the camera away and turned it off. "Oh shit, oh shit," You muttered, quickly turning the camera off and facing the guy to apologize.

"Delete that footage of me, please and thank you," He demanded, so rudely that made you really not want to erase it just to spite him.

"I'm sorry, but if I delete it then the whole day would be deleted," You said, really guilty. But that son of a bitch just grabbed his phone and filmed you.

"HA! If you're not going to delete the footage then I'm going to delete mine," He said pointing the camera closer to you and zooming in on your face. "And what should I call you? Basco Stalker Girl? or Angry-Hot Basco Stalker Girl?"

You scowled to the camera and went to grab it, but he moved fast and ran away from you down to the start of the hill. "Hey! Give it to me!"

"No can do," He said turning to face you and walking backward but he tripped and fell leaving you to laugh at him like an idiot you are.

Seeing you laugh made Tom mad, with a glare and a scowl he stood up, dusted himself, and chased after you.

But, he couldn't catch up to you. You are already on your bike and laughing a little. You quickly drew a breath as you realize that your bike is quickly gaining speed. You quickly hanged your feet to reduce the speed and held the brakes. The bike soon stopped and soon enough, you are on the way to the hospital.

"Hey, Ang. How was he today?" You asked Aidan's nurse as the two of you met in the hallway and are walking towards Aidan's room.

"Nothing happened, really. Just a normal day checking his vital signs and stuff," She answered opening the door and letting you come in first. "Anyways, I got to go and check on my other patient across the hall. See you!"

You were greeted by the sound of the EKG machine which records his heartbeat. Nevertheless, you put your bag down on the sofa and picked up the portable DVD player from under his bed. You grabbed your bag and look for the disc containing the edited video from yesterday. You quickly found it and placed it inside the DVD player. The video quickly loaded showcasing your whole day yesterday.

"Hi, love. Here's the video from yesterday. Hope you like it," You said as you sat on the monoblock chair beside his bed and placed the portable DVD player on his stomach as the video started to play. You gazed lovingly at his face, wanting to see his smile again.

You never really lost hope when he fell into a coma. Sure, you have your guilt but you slowly learned to accept it. You, along with everyone around him never really lost faith in him. All of you believe that he would soon wake up and join you in your adventures around Batanes. That's what started the vlogs with your day and such. You would go around your day filming everything you can and showing it to him in hopes of him hearing it and maybe waking up because of those videos.

Tom, along with his tour guide for the day, stopped to eat dinner at the Esther Lie Restaurant. He walked inside and was quickly greeted with chatting guests and a cozy vibe that made him think of home. His tour guide, Paulo quickly pulled him in front of an upright piano.

"W-why?" Tom asked, confused, scrunching his face up and quickly looking around the room.

"The photographs, my boy," Paulo said redirecting Tom's gaze towards the photographs on the top of the piano. He saw old and new photographs in frames ranging from the late 50's up to the early '90s.

"Who are they?" Tom asked, his eyes gazing on the women from picture to picture.

"They are known as 'The Sisters of Basco' known for their expertise on cooking the famous kare-kare and coconut crab," Paulo explained, Tom listening to every word and nodding. Paulo then pointed to the photographs and explained each of them. "This is here, is Esther. She's the only one out of the two of them to get married. So, Esther married Stan and then they had a daughter named Cara and she married Anthony. That about sums it up, how about let's go sit and order?"

The two of them sat in a table for two, but Julie came out greeting Paulo.

"Paulo! How are you, my boy?" Julie said.

"I'm fine, mama Juls. Thank you for asking, though," Paulo said, genuinely.

"How about we go sit in a bigger table along with Anthony and Esther?" Julie offered. Tom looked at Paulo but Paulo just shrugged and moved to the bigger table. "By the way, who is this youngling with you?"

"Oh, I'm Tom," He introduced himself. "Nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you too, Tom. Paulo basically grew up with us. His parents are one of my friends and he was a close friend to my niece, Cara," Julie explained, leading them to the table. "Wait. Let me call my family."

While Julie went on to call Esther and Tony (short for Anthony). Tom was comfortable sitting in the chair, Paulo across from him.

"So, you grew up here, huh?" Tom said, looking around once more with the restaurant's floral designs with its brown floorings and floral decor, it really gives off that cozy vibe.

"Yeah, kinda. My parents are really close to Mama Julie and Mama Esther," Paulo explained while scanning over the menu before putting it down. Tom scanned the menu and immediately went hungry due to the pictures of delicious foods.

"So," Julie came back and sat down along with Esther and Anthony. Esther seating beside Tom and Anthony beside Paulo while Julie sat beside Esther. "What are your orders?"

A waiter then came taking their orders. While they were waiting, Julie engaged them in a conversation about Paulo. How he is such a naughty little boy and how they thought that Paulo and Cara will someday marry each other.

"Oh, Julie. You haven't even introduced us to this pretty boy right here," Esther said pointing at Tom.

"I'm sorry," Julie sheepishly smiles at Tom and he chuckled a bit. "So, everyone, this is Tom."

"Nice to meet you," Tony said turning around and giving him a handshake.

"So, Tom, why are you here? And please call me Mama Esther, everyone around me does." Mama Esther bluntly asked.

"Oh, he's here to produce a hit show for us," Paulo answered excitedly. "One that will make Batanes' tourist population grow."

"Is that right, Tom?" Julie asked him and Tom nodded smiling a little. "Oh, how amazing would that be!" she gushed.

"What are you planning to do, yet?" Tony asked him.

"I don't know yet," Tom answered honestly.

"Oi! Give him a break, he just came here yesterday," Julie said, making them stop with all those questions.

"Well, who do you think shall be your lead? Any ideas?" Mama Esther asked, clearly not listening to Julie. Tom pondered for a moment before reaching out to his back pocket and grabbing his phone.

"Actually, yes," Tom came to a conclusion. "But, I don't know her name. Do you mind if I show you a video of her?"

"Nope," Julie said, popping the 'p' sound. Tom leaned over and showed them the video of you, scowling at him before the two of you ran around the Marlboro Hills and before Tom's embarrassing fall.

"Do you know her?" All of them had their jaws drop, while Tom awkwardly looks into their faces.

"Why! That's my granddaughter!" Mama Esther said, a grin forming on her along with Julie.

"That's my daughter," Tony finally said, letting out a breath he didn't know he was holding.

"Any idea where she is now?" Tom finally asked. Then, Julie points her lips to his back and Tom just raised his eyebrows, confused about her movements.

"There," Paulo said, pointing on Tom's back. Tom turned and saw you entering the restaurant. You greeted the waiters and went to your grandmas' table but stopped as you saw him.

"YOU, again?" Your eyes widened at the sight of him. "I thought we are done with each other?"

"Oh, you again." Tom sighed.

[shippingisntactivism]

I said on my old blog that I wasn't going to talk about this anymore but I feel the need to make a post so I can put my thoughts into a more comprehensive form.

(I'll ask that other people, especially cis people, please NOT give me all their detailed reasons as to why they personally wouldn't fuck a trans person because I really, really don't want to hear it and I promise you I could not care less.)

I think what ultimately frustrates me most about the genitals preferences discourse is not so much the fact that individual people aren't attracted to x kind of genitals, because of course you're allowed to not be attracted to a certain trait of a person, it's just that this is always phrased as "well this is just my INHERENT sexuality. I am gay/straight and THEREFORE..." Like, no. Fuck off.

Okay, if you are, for example, a gay man who just really really likes d*ck, cool. Good for you. Go live your best life.

But you don't get to act that that is BECAUSE you are gay. Being gay just means that you are a man (or occasionally a nb person) who is attracted to other men (or occasionally certain nb people). It doesn't say anything about genitals or what kind of men you like or anything else at all. (substitute this passage for lesbians, straight women, and straight men accordingly)

If genitals are something important to you - cool, but they are important to you PERSONALLY and may not be that big of a deal to other gay men. Or sometimes, a person's attraction to the other person might outweigh their non attraction to certain traits they have.

So yeah, I just wish people who argue they are allowed to not like x kind of genitals, (which btw nobody has said individual people aren't allowed to not be attracted to penises/vaginas) would stop doing it in a way that erases people of their identity who are attracted to those genitals, or at the very least don't have that big of an issue with dating someone who has them, cause it's so annoying that we constantly have to reassert that yes, actually, we exist.

Ultimately, for me at least, genitals just don't play that big of a part of my attraction. I'm much more attracted to other things such as gender presentation, secondary sex chararistics, whether or not someone is more interested in taking a male or female social role (still haven't figured out how things with nbs stand cause I haven't even met an nb irl) etc.

So yeah that's it. Again, pls don't derail my post, also TERFs stay from my blog 2kInfinity

[thegeminisage]

What other characters (of DBH) you think people should appreciate more and why? I love read your opinions❤

omg anon pls thats so sweet

(if anybody wasn’t here for the last ask the first character was north & there’s a follow-up here)

alright just a “””quick””” (lol as if) little thing for each one bc it’s getting late & you’ve already been waiting on this for like an hour at the time i started typing. it’s probably gonna be long as fuck but the tl;dr is at the bottom

LUTHER:

they did luther so dirty…it was like david cage was playing “racist trope bingo” for his entire debut chapter…and then on top of that all he cares about is kara & alice, these two near-strangers, and it’s real easy to get him killed for them. in fact, in an ending where kara sacrifices herself at the border, she tells alice that luther will get her across the border, and after that, rose will take care of her. UM WHAT? don’t call ur PSN trophy “happy family” and then try to erase luther like that!! what does luther want? what are his hopes and dreams, his fears? nobody ever bothers to ask bc they’re too busy making ralph alice’s dad. and it’s not that i don’t like ralph - i do! but he threatened alice with a knife TWICE. after her previous dad’s bullshit, that’s the last thing she needs!!

here’s my take on luther: he says that what his life was before kara & alice doesn’t matter, and that’s because david cage doesn’t care about him. but imagine instead that luther remembers what he did (was forced to do) before he broke his programming. our luther is sweet and gentle and good, but zlatko forced him to use his strength as a weapon for LITERALLY tearing people apart. don’t you think luther regrets that? don’t you think he wishes he could take it back? perhaps his even temper and loving heart is a RESULT of those early memories: he’s seen the worst sides of anger and callousness, he’s had to be complicit in it. my feeling is that he never ever wants to be complicit in something like that again…it feels weird when he picks up a gun in the game because i think he would be even more of a staunch pacifist than josh?? i feel like even when luther does get annoyed or angry he’s so afraid of the harm he’s capable of doing he doesn’t even really let himself feel it And That’s Sad. he should be able to get annoyed at like a broken coffee maker or some shit without illogically worrying it will result in someone’s maiming or death?? maybe he is So Ready to throw himself on a grenade for kara and alice because yes, he does love them, but also he feels he has to redeem himself somehow, yk? he has to be willing to do absolutely WHATEVER it takes to be Good

they didn’t give luther any depth…he never got to speak to zlatko’s captives and apologize, he never got to express a feeling about kara potentially burning down the whole fucking nightmare house (with living androids inside, i might add) - would he have wished to save those androids? would he be glad their suffering was over? would he have motherfucking hearts in his eyes for kara single-handedly destroying his own personal hell? he deviated for alice, it was alice that made him say “ok, doing this to kids is where i literally can’t take it anymore” - don’t you think he’d be so retroactively terrified of all the terrible things that could have happened to her? 

like i truly don’t get why people make ralph alice’s dad when luther loves her so fucking much he’d bring her the moon if she asked - he’s the only person who loves her just as selflessly and unconditionally as kara does. she accepted him and wanted him to say goodnight their very first night together…as soon as he resisted his programming, she stopped being afraid of him, and it must be so amazing for him to finally have people around who don’t either fear him or try to control him…whether u ship him with kara or not (i do, everyone should - it’s one thing to HC kara as gay but i side-eye people who don’t wanna ship luther with anybody) you know he’s gotta cherish them so much

AMANDA:

ok look i know amanda is the antag to connor’s story but honestly she’s metal as FUCK. i was so fucking floored to not only learn the garden isn’t a garden but that amanda isn’t amanda…my first playthrough i was letting connor be just a lil bit deviant but whenever amanda would ask about it i would panic and lie…now i know it doesnt matter what you can say and you can be blatantly deviant right in front of her and she’s like ok Whatever BUT i was deeply shook to realize all my lying to her all along hadn’t meant a thing…she did in fact KNOW i was lying because she wasn’t real, she was living in connor’s brain and she could see all that shit he was doing

and also?? like, imagine you were made out of a dead person’s face and voice. we don’t know if amanda has a body, we don’t know if kamski actually liked what he created or thought it was creepy (like imagine if he and amanda were close and then she died…it’d be weird to see her like that), we don’t know if amanda CAN deviate like the androids…she’s living this half life potentially stuck in some garden and just doing what her program says like everybody else. but even though machines get all the sympathy in this game i very rarely ever see people stop and go “dude, is she ok…is someone controlling her can we help her” - amanda’s a lot like connor, she’s hunting down deviants but she’s not a human and she’s not alive yet so who’s pulling her strings?? can they be cut??? 

JOSH:

i’ll be honest i haven’t figured out what Angle i like best for josh the way i’ve got one for luther and north but he has such strong convictions i feel like they would have to stem from some past experience. everybody’s always arguing about simon vs north that nobody stops to give josh the attention he deserves…he’s part of the fantastic 4 too!! who is josh? what does he want? what is he afraid of? does he refuse to be violent for reasons like luther - did he hurt someone, deliberately or accidentally? (to a lesser extent, a pacifist markus who shoved leo can also follow this pattern - he gave into violence and thought he’d killed carl’s son, so he swore to do no more violence after that.) or: did he see someone else get hurt/get hurt himself? i know the backstory they give him in the gallery but tbh it’s very similar and not stand-out from most of the rest of the stuff we hear…

like, what made josh deviate? we literally never find out. i think it would be interesting tho if instead of just being the victim of violence, he was ordered to DO violence, and refused - maybe that’s why he got hurt. but i think his relationship WITH violence could be a complex thing for anyone who wanted to tackle it. we know why north prefers violence, why does josh detest it? (similarly, why does simon prefer safety over either approach? - but fandom gives him a lot of love and attention and tries to explain this, and nobody tries to explain it for josh.)

KARA & ALICE:

like…to a small extent…i know they’re main characters but i could write an essay just on why they didn’t get a fair shake either - constant victims of assault, little depth, kara got to choose what happened to her but not what kind of person she was gonna be like markus & connor, significantly less playtime than markus & connor, had NO influence on the big macro plot like markus & connor, i could go on…but definitely the worst for me is that everything about kara that made us love her (from the short), was ERASED - david took her memories and never made the slightest move towards kara wanting them back, or her being able to get them back. she’s six years old and he took all of her history from her, all of her agency!! i feel like translated into fic they can both become very flat - all kara cares about is protecting alice, and alice is constantly scared or hurt or needing to be taken care of, like a baby doll. granted that’s not actually far from the game’s canon, but it could have been MORE. kara had six entire years of experiences before she met alice - what makes alice special? who is kara without alice? 

i really wish we had been able to take a personality route with kara - her main superpower seems to be empathy and getting people on her side (ralph, jerrys, zlatko’s creatures), but she can also wave around a gun at anybody who gets near her baby. it would have been really interesting to explore two sides of that - to have a kara who is 1000% Done and ready for wholesale murder if it means surviving vs having a kara who can bring out the best in anyone, even if they seem like bad people at first. (imagine the influence you could have over alice - she would learn to be wary of strangers or be warm to them.) but instead the narrative is wishy-washy; you can’t teach alice anything, and in fact she serves as kara’s moral compass instead of the other way around - you wind up doing things like comforting the guy who broke kara multiple times and waving a gun at ralph (who like, shouldn’t have done that, but also isn’t 100% in control of his own facualities all the time). it would have been really interesting to see kara be able to influence her own fate more as well - the camp sections are shitty and should not exist but like maybe a kara who had spent the whole game yelling at everyone with a gun would have the ability unlocked to then rally the people inside, and who cared what connor and markus were doing, you know? 

but david doesn’t know how to write women so that’s not what we got - kara carried that entire franchise into reality and he totally screwed her over!!

TL;DR

luther was forced to do terrible things and that could explain a lot of his behavior if anybody cared, nobody ever wonders if amanda is being forced to obey programming like the rest of the machines or if she’s ok, josh’s relationship with violence could be very complex and we don’t know his motivation for refusing to participate in it the way we know north’s for preferring it, and david can’t write women so he shafted kara so fucking bad and it is an honest to god shame

[starfirefaeday]

im on two of three of the sides of this debate that ive seen.

some say tim is gay bc of his recent confirmation as mlm

some say he is bi bc of his past relationship with women AND his recent confirmation as mlm

whats the third argument you say?

just my personal logic and opinions about how timmy would feel. all of that combined with these new words that "tim hasn't defined himself" has crafted the HOLY THIRD ARGUMEMT.

tim. is.

not straight.

"duh."

hear me out guys. i really understand that bisexual representation is important. people have actively been shitting on the folks who think he is bisexual saying "HES GAY UR A HOMOPHOBE." (btw how was that conclusion reached??)

HOWEVER. i really think that being undefined needs representation too. SO STOP THIS NONSENSE DEBATE ABOUT GAY OR BI. (If its negative! Pls keep talking ab our lgbt king just stop the anger over it. Also maybe he's currently not being confirmed as one sexuality bc DC are cowards but who knows 💗💜💙)

this new confirmation of the date with bernard not erasing his history with steph and the way i agree that tim actually just hasn't completely figured it out yet is all i need to say.... HES AN LGBTQ KING. LETS JUST CELEBRATE THAT.

Sooo anyways you think tim is gay or bi?

I mean as of right now it could really go either way but the writer Meghan Fitzmartin just had this exchange on twitter so leaning towards bi rn until something says otherwise

“Hey, gorgeous,” Derek walks into the tech room where you and Penelope are following up on your current case regarding 13 dead women, and a missing one named Victoria Harolds.

“Hello there, lover,” Penelope replies, eyes not leaving the screen. “What can I do for you?”

“These women all got their dry cleaning done at the same place. Can you remind me where that was?.”

“Dry cleaning? At the corner of Sheridan and 34th, Prentiss and I checked that out last week. All the employees had solid alibis,” you look over to Derek and he shakes his head.

“There was one person unaccounted for: the owner Charles Jensen. He wasn’t around that day, they told you that he was on vacation in New York, right?” Derek raises a brow at you and Penelope shakes her head.

“They lied. I’m tracking his credit cards right now and he’s less than a mile from where the kidnappings took place and three miles from almost every dumpsite. All the others have clean records and solid alibis, but he doesn’t,” Penelope continues typing and you shake your head.

“What? What’s wrong?” Derek looks at you, concerned.

“This doesn’t make any sense, it doesn’t fit the profile. He’s been undetected for so long, why make mistakes now? He’s careful, he’s smart. He wouldn’t give himself away accidentally,” you bite your lip in thought as Garcia speaks up.

“Could it possibly be because he’s feeling remorse?”

“No, sociopaths don’t feel remorse, Pen. This man wants something from us, I’m just not sure what it is,” you shake your head and sigh, Penelope’s typing being the only noise.

Seconds later, your phone rings and you look at the screen. Not recognizing the caller, you motion to Derek and Penelope, telling them to keep quiet as you answer the call and put it on speaker.

“L/N here. Who’s this?”

“Hello there, Agent,” the voice on the other end is hoarse and smug at the same time. “You don’t recognize my voice?”

Derek pulls Hotch and the rest of the team in as Penelope tries to trace the call.

“You’re the man who killed all those women,” you grit out and the man laughs.

“Thank you, you’re right. That would be me. Wouldn’t you like to know where I am? Where little miss brunette is?”

“Tell me where you’re keeping her. Tell me where you’re keeping Victoria,” you look over to Penelope as she shakes her head, not yet pinpointing his location.

“Tell that brilliant analyst of yours to stop trying to find me. I’ll just tell you where we are,” the man takes a deep, long, calming breath before continuing. “We’re at 1347 West Sheldon Road, right next to the abandoned warehouse. Can’t wait to see you.”

He hangs up and you all quickly rush out the doors: you and Morgan rush into one car while the rest of the team calls for some backup before joining you.

“Why did that man ask if you remembered him?” Derek questions you after a few minutes of silence.

“I’ve got no idea, but I plan on asking him myself,” you glare ahead and turn the siren on. Why did the unsub sound so familiar?

“We need to be careful when we get there, you understand me?” Derek lectures as you drive up to the house; it seems to be the only one in the area.

“Derek, I appreciate your concern, but we cannot wait!” You unbuckle your seatbelt and look up at him.

“We don’t go in without the rest of the team, understood?” Derek grabs your hand as check to make sure you’ve got your gun, a concerned look in his eyes while yours grow hard.

“Derek, the longer we wait, the less are our chances of finding her alive. Please,” you whisper, pleading as he furrows his brows.

“We can’t go in there without backup, sweetheart,” he shakes his head and doesn’t let go of his grip on my arm.

“Derek, we’ve done this for years. What’s different now?” You reason as Derek shakes his head. “Victoria could be dead!”

“And if we go in there alone, you could be next! The women he kidnaps look a hell of a lot like you! This unsub knows you, he singled you out and called you to tell you where he was. There’s not a chance in hell I’m letting you go in there without backup!” Derek’s voice grows louder as he finishes his little speech.

Before you’re given a chance to respond, you hear sirens coming around the corner. You pull your arm away from Derek’s, glaring at him as you open your side door.

“There’s your backup, Derek. I’m going in,” you get out the car and run over to the front of the house. Hotch and Reid are the first to meet you there. “Everyone be careful.”

You check the door and see that it’s open. You make your way inside and Hotch and Reid follow. You stop once you were all inside, and hear the woman’s sobs and groans down the hall. Everyone gets to the room at the very end and you break down the door. There he is: holding her against him, smiling as he carves into her stomach, a blade in one hand and a gun in the other.

“Stop right now or I will put one right between your beady little eyes,” you glare, gritting your teeth as the man laughs, lifting the gun to the woman’s head..

“The only way you’ll put a bullet through me is over her dead body. She’s useless. You, on the other hand, I’m going to enjoy--”

“Let her go, Charles. You don’t want to do this. Just--”

“Let her go?” He cuts you off and runs the blade lightly across her throat. “She’s the only leverage I have to get to you.”

“Stop hurting her and I will walk right over to you,” you glare at him and slowly move your gun lower, gritting your teeth as you speak.

“Is that a promise?” He smirks, not removing his blade from Victoria’s throat as he eyeballs you. “Because I can get off at just the thought of carving into you, god I can’t wait to--”

“Get your hands off of her. Now,” you grit your teeth, your hands still on your gun as he watches you.

“Oh, look at you. You’ve grown up so much. I bet your parents would be proud, huh?” He smirks at you knowingly as he lifts his hands off the girl, the knife still poking her stomach and the gun against her temple.

You growl and take a step closer as he pokes the blade in deeper.

“You really don’t remember me?” The man laughs and you reach for your gun again. “I didn’t think you could forget me after the state I left your parents in. They were one of my first kills, blood spattered everywhere. Some of it even got on your face and you screamed. You were such a beautiful child.”

“Now is not a good time to lie, Charles,” you clench your jaw, not wanting to think of your parents. Not wanting to know how he knew about them.

“Lying?” He laughs again. “I’m not lying and you know it. You were in her arms when I killed her. Red was such a good color on you, even then. You were wearing a pretty lavender dress with embroidered white flowers.”

You falter for a second as the man continues, not wanting to let him see what he was doing to you.

“You looked so sad, so confused. I couldn’t have someone as innocent as you be drenched in blood. So I took the time to change you out of the bloody clothes. I cleaned you up and put you into a little white onesie. God, your skin was so soft. I wonder how soft it is now. So scrumptious, so--”

“Don’t even think of finishing that sentence,” Derek’s voice comes out gruffly from behind you.

“Or what? You’ll shoot me? As if she’ll let you,” he scoffs, raising a brow towards you while running his tongue across his bottom lip.

“If you don’t let her go, I will shoot you myself,” you grit your teeth and earn a sickening smile from him.

“I let her go, I have no leverage. Come on over and I won’t even look at her,” he rakes his eyes up and down, imagining you naked. “Is someone feeling jealous?”

You grit your teeth and look over your shoulder at Derek and the rest of the team, making sure they knew what you were doing. You give Derek the gun and walk over to the jackass, holding your hands up as Victoria whimpered underneath the knife.

“There’s a good girl,” he smirks, raising his knife to your stomach and his gun to your temple as he turns you around, pressing your back to his chest. He moans, brushing his lips against your ear and using you as a human shield. “You feel even better than I could have imagined.”

You grit your teeth and drift off,  not wanting to imagine what he was saying. There’s no way he could be the one, but there’s also no way he could’ve known any of those details. Everything about your childhood was erased. Penelope owed you one and that was all you wanted. The only proof that anything out of the ordinary had happened to your parents was a single sheet of paper, a report that had been filled out initially. No one else outside of your team knew about those events.

“Listen to me, you little whore!” He screams in your ear, pushing the gun into your temple as he grew impatient. The knife dug into your belly as he yelled at you, his head moving slightly to the side to exert more force. “You’re a filthy, cheap little slut and there’s no way you’re getting out of this alive. I’m gonna--!”

And before he can even finish the sentence, you hear a shot go off. The scumbag got one right between his beady little eyes. You look back to see Derek Morgan, gun in his hands and eyes on you as a tear rolls down your face. You quickly wipe it and turn around, facing Victoria as Hotch called for paramedics.

You rub the hair out of her face as she cries and whispers gentle thank yous, her hands still shaking as she fights to remain conscious. Once the paramedics arrive, you move out of the way and promise to visit her in the hospital before the team heads back to DC.

By the time you turn to face the team, they’re all making their way outside to tackle news crews and relay the information with the cops. Derek is the only one still in the room, eyes not leaving you. You finally stand up again, knees barely able to keep you up as you walk over to Derek with your hand outstretched.

“Here you go,” Derek whispers, handing your gun back to you as he places a hand on your shoulder. “You okay?”

“Yeah, I guess,” you shrug and whimper, your tough demeanor slowly breaking as Derek pulls you into a hug. “No.. I’m not okay, Derek.”

“I know, baby, I know,” he whispers and holds you close, letting you cry into his chest. “I’m so sorry.”

You two stay like that for a few minutes, finding comfort in each other’s arms as the agents and officers swarmed in and out of the room. The chaos around you continued, and for once you felt peace inside you.

“Morgan?” You two hear Hotch’s voice coming down the hallway and Derek lifts his head up.

“We’re in here, Hotch,” Derek yells out and you pull away from him for a second, wiping your tears. Hotch takes one look at you and closes his eyes.

“I’m so sorry, Y/N. We should’ve seen the connection sooner,” Hotch shakes his head and you give him a tight-lipped smile.

“It’s not your fault, Hotch. We saved her and the jackass is dead,” you wipe a few more stray tears and shrug as Hotch nods. “It hasn’t been a bad day.”

“Morgan take Angel home. The rest of us will finish the paperwork tonight. We’ll call you if we need anything,” Hotch looks at Derek and then back at you. “You need anything, let us know, okay?”

“Okay, dad,” you whisper, still smiling at him. He returns the smile and walks out as Derek wraps an arm around your shoulder.

At the end of the day, all you had was your team. And what a team you had.

[beautifullybletcherous]

Let me clear this up binches!! Bi sexual= sexually attracted to TWO genders (typically meaning male and female but could mean others)!!! Pan sexual= sexually attracted to ALL genders (male female agender non binary genderqueer) !!!! Pan DOESNT MEAN YOUD DATE A TRANS PERSON. trans women are women. Therefore a straight man dating a trans woman IS A STRAIGHT MAN. that is obvious and only dumb ppl think that's what pan means.

So pls stop erasing and misrepresenting pan identity thanks

[mithliya]

okay so this is how op looks

and this is how the person above looks

when will White Lites pls stop speaking for poc??? y’all can’t deny that u don’t experience racism & on the rare occasions that u do, u experienced it bc someone somehow found out about your native heritage. anyways this post is racist esp since woc are being called terfs disproportionately simply bc we don’t follow a white & western mindset to a T.

now, as for this ~terf bingo~:

“socialisation” in quotations as if it isn’t a well-established thing that males & females are raised differently, as if it isn’t well-established that gender roles exist & are enforced from a young age.

“biologically [gender]” male & female are sexes, not genders. ive yet to see a single Evil Terf say “biologically feminine” or smth. whether “woman” & “man” refers to gender or sex is a matter of semantics, tho.

“+1 bonus for racism” the irony here is... delicious. TRAs are so UScentric & constantly being racist. the amount of woc that have been harmed by y’alls ideology is astounding. u ppl paint poc as absolute buffoons (like claiming we have no idea what biological sex is, acting like white ppl taught us what sex was bc we couldn’t put 2 & 2 together ourselves), misrepresent our cultures, tokenise us, dismiss the oppression we experience, use us as ur argument points, etc.

“trans men are self hating women” probs the first one on the list that ive actually seen from Terfs™. tho like.. plenty of people who once were trans men & then detransition have openly talked about how much internalised misogyny fuelled their transition so.., maybe TRAs shouldn’t be erasing them to support their narrative?

“nb ppl are Fake” more like Gender Is Fake and Everyone Is To Some Degree Non-Binary but... ok

“ignoring the existence of surgery as a concept” this one is just blatantly false lmao, radfems frequently critique cosmetic surgeries (which, btw, SRS is considered cosmetic! bc it only changes the appearance, nothing more!) i reckon this one is misrepresenting Terfs™ critique of the cotton ceiling.

“skinny” this one’s plain stupid bc plenty of Terfs ™ are fat and some well-known radfems are fat! Andrea Dworkin exists, for example!

“white” except countless woc have been labelled “terfs”, for example chimamanda ngoze adichie. like. if we wanna talk white.. let’s comment on how TRAs are overwhelmingly white instead 🤷🏾‍♀️

“somehow trans women are faking for perks ???” there are plenty of males who pretend to be trans women to benefit. let’s not start pretending like there haven’t been predators that claimed to be trans for access into female-only spaces. for example, karen white, who claimed to be trans and asked to be moved to a female prison, and then sexually assaulted several female inmates. there’s also plenty of athletes who couldn’t make a career in men’s sports who are now record breakers in women’s sports, so... we can pretend that no self-proclaimed trans woman could benefit from transition & receive some kinda perks but. the proof is in the pudding.

“terf is a slur” this IS something that some Terfs™ have actually argued, and it’s stupid as hell.

“calling out transphobia is an act of hate” i mean.... from my experience, most wouldn’t say anything even resembling this but. ive seen this belief iterated by the few that are hated by the community

“my friend is getting bullied because she said trans women should die :(“ if someone saying ‘im a lesbian and i don’t want to have sex with anyone who’s male, including trans women’ or ‘biological sex is a real thing that can’t be changed at this point in time’ translates to ‘trans women should die’ then.. sure. but a lot of the time, the women being harassed have done & said nothing to warrant being harassed, esp not “trans women should die”.

“the bangs” ive seen more TRAs with bangs than Terfs™ with bangs

“blog is selfies + discourse + a lot of oil paintings?” ok.. and? plenty of ppl of all political stances have blogs that meet that description

“i don’t like x person so they can’t be a lesbian” this is honestly only applicable to like. 4 diff Terfs™

“complete lack of understanding of intersectional feminism” more irony tbh but someone not believing the same bastardisation of intersectional feminism that u do doesn’t mean they don’t understand intersectional feminism.

“sources all from 1995” blatantly false, not even worth arguing against tbh bc anyone who looks at the sources would see that some come from as recently as 2017/2018.

“we don’t hate trans people!!!” honestly for a group of Evil, Murderous women, so far everything you’ve listed has been completely harmless. like. rly? someone saying they don’t hate trans ppl is part of ur bingo?

“not wanting to be misgendered is oppressive” this was def never argued by anyone. im guessing the real argument is “making using he/she pronouns for someone a crime is oppressive” which. it kinda is. hate speech & harassment are one thing, someone saying “he” should never be a crime.

“”acts of violence” aka trans women existing” ok i guess we’re just gonna pretend like trans women arent capable of ever being violent now? but also.. this is rich coming from the group that thinks words are Literal Violence. hm

“it’s just science” ok but biological sex ... is science.

“worshipping white women” more racism in this bingo, acting like woc don’t exist and like we’re all just a monolith that agree with TRAs and couldn’t possibly disagree without somehow being white women’s lapdogs

“men trying to invade our spaces” men have literally done this throughout history & still do this to this day.

“upper-middle class” this one is probs the furthest from the truth tbh, ive come across more rich TRAs than anything but. most Terfs™ i can think of are poor or middle class so.. hm

“i know all about trans issues bc i took a gender studies class” idk where op even got the idea for this one bc this one is Definitely not something ive seen any Terf™ say

tldr this post sucks and i need spicy mayos to stop speaking for poc when u get to go offline and get the same advantages any other white person does.

i’m losing terf followers so please keep unfollowing me :^)

There was blood on his hands, but no matter how hard he washed, how fast he rubbed them, not a single droplet fell on the sink. He could feel the smell of it clinging to his skin, could feel the weight of the live he most likely just took away heaving on his back.

It wasn’t the first time Magnus had all but killed someone, but this time it was different. This time it really felt like he had been yielding a sword against someone’s throat and that he had been the one to swing it.

All he had known was that Raphael needed him, that the vampires needed him to take her down. His family needed her gone, and he had aided them.

And now she- Camille Belcourt- was gone., and it was on Magnus. Her death, her pain, her torture… it was all on Magnus. The Clave might kill her, but it had been Magnus who signed her death sentence.

“Magnus?”

The familiar voice somehow reached him through the sound of the water and his own thoughts, and he latched to it like a life saver. He shook his head at his reflection and smiling brightly as he left the bathroom, opening the door with a single snap of his fingers.

He had expected it to be Lily complaining about Raphael, maybe Izzy- he really was not ready for Clary Fray, standing at the door with visible gashes on her naked arms and her hair plastered all over her face because of the heavy rain.

She blinked at him for a second, and crossed her arms around her chest, shaking a little in the doorway. “Simon said something along the lines of you being a dad and a shadow doctor, and I forgot my stele at the Institute.”

Magnus didn’t answer at that just stepped out of the doorway, a silent invitation to come in.

All he knew was that Clary was hurting and he needed to be there for her.

The first thought Magnus had when he met Clary Fray for the first time was something along the lines of ‘why does Valentine’s daughter look adorable even though her father is a monster and I, a good warlock, can’t even have children?’

Not very flattering for either of the two women standing at the door, but honest. He probably would have smacked the door in their faces too, if it hadn’t been for Clary. Yes, Jocelyn Fairchild didn’t deserve his empathy, but what had the little girl done, except being born? She hadn’t asked for it.

So against his better judgement, he had allowed the two shadowhunters to come into his house and had listened to Jocelyn beggings and pleas, ready to refuse her. Ready to make her leave with nothing, the way her and the Circle had left many Downworlders and families with nothing too.

But then Clary had spoken, saying the first words since she had come in through the door with her mother.

“You have eyes like a cat.” Both Magnus and Jocelyn had looked at her at that, sitting in the corner of a soft sofa with a plushie in her hands and a thumb in her mouth. She had smiled at Magnus, with the innocence only children had. “I really really like them, Doctor Bane.”

Simple words, spoken by a child who was as much of a victim as him in a way, that had him smile honestly for the first time in years.

“These are some nasty scratches.” Commented Magnus, almost touching the scars, but stopping himself just in time.

Clary shrugged a little, refusing to meet his eyes, and Magnus sighed. She had been mostly quiet throughout it all, not really telling him anything and he was starting to get worried. Something serious had happened and he wanted to know what was it.

“How did you do it? How did you let go of Camille?”

It shouldn’t surprise him the fact that she knew. Of course Simon had told her. No, what surprised him was the fact that she cared at all about the person she blamed for Simon becoming a vampire.

He concentrated on the bandage he was applying on her arm for a few moments, choosing his words carefully. “I don’t know if I let go.” He answered in the end. He looked up at her with a small smile, talking as he finished the bandage. “I did it for Raphael, you see. And for Simon and the vampires, and I feel like it was the right thing to do. She made mistakes, and in a way, she deserved it.

But she wasn’t meant to die. Not now, not this soon. She was supposed to live forever. Even if everyone left, I always knew I’d have her. She hasn’t been my lover in decades, but she has always been my companion, dare I say, my friend.”

“But she did bad things. She hurt you. You should hate her, right?” asked him Clary, her fingers curling tightly around the arm of the chair.

“There is a thin line between love and hate, biscuit. And for that, I will never hate Camille Belcourt.” He let go of the bandage and held her hands in his. “And the only person I know that you might feel resentment towards but not fully hate, is your mother.” Clary blinked quickly, a small tear still rolling down her cheek. Magnus didn’t wipe it away. 

“What happened, Clarissa?”

“Mister Magnus, did I make this?” asked Clary, frowning at the small painting framed on the wall in the living room. It definitely looked like her style, but she didn’t recall ever drawing it, let alone Magnus hanging it up.

The warlock looked up from where he was brewing his new potion, and shrugged. “… depends? If I can keep it then yes, if you want it back then no, it’s mine.” He answered, grinning at her.

Instead of answering him, Clary gasped, pointing her paint brush at his face. “Where did the glitter go?” she asked, looking at him in totally genuine shock.

Magnus would have laughed if she hadn’t been so completely serious. He snorted. “Contrarily to popular belief, I don’t wake up flawless. I am not Queen Bey.”

“Can I make you sparkly then?” she asked, and this time Magnus stopped, looking at her in surprise. She looked down at her feet. “You always say you like my art, so… can I make art with your face? Even though you’re already very beautiful?”

Simple question of a simple child. And yet, it was in that moment that Magnus decided that he would never let anything happen to Clary Fray. It was in that moment that he realised he would do anything to keep that baby safe.

“There is this room,” started Magnus, looking away from Clary, “that I made when you were younger.”

“You mean when m- mom came to wipe my memories?” asked the younger girl, tripping over the word mom. Magnus could relate.

“It was your room.” He explained, smiling at her confused expression. “I called it your ideas room. You drew all over the walls, on the carpets, everywhere. And every drawing you did, I hung it in that room. Pictures that I have of you and your mother, and Luke. They’re all in there.”

Clary stared at him for a couple of seconds, standing up on her feet. “Why did you keep them?” she asked him, a hand going to her bandaged arms for a moment.

Magnus just held out his hand for her. “Because I care for you.”

And you were an important part of my life. Because you are the sun, Clary, and you shone through my life with your kindness and your innocence, so rare in a Shadowhunter.

Because for many years, I thought of you as my younger sister, as someone I looked after.

Because you’re special.

“Like you care for Alec?” asked Clary and this time Magnus snorted.

“Like Izzy cares for Alec.” He corrected, and she relaxed at this.

“Show me.”

It’s been months since the last time Magnus saw her. Months since she last drew in her art room. Months since he took every last memory she had of him and the shadow world and erased it for ever.

And now Clary Fray was standing in front of him, every bit the woman he had watched her grow into, standing next to some shadowhunters like a queen reclaiming her throne.

“Clary Fairchild. You've grown into a beautiful young woman.” Its all he can say. He knows it’s foolish, because his magic is powerful. But he wants her to remember. He wants her to know him again.

But of course she doesn’t. Magnus is the best warlock in the entire Brooklyn.

“Magnus Bane. So you’re the one who took my memories.”

And like this, his heart breaks.

Clary stands in the middle of the room, watching everything with rapt eyes and unshed tears, and Magnus wants to comfort her, wants to reach out for her. But he can’t and it hurts more than it should.

“Do you want to be left alone?” asked Magnus, ready to leave the room. Clary wasn’t crying anymore anyway, and she seemed tired as she laid on the huge pouf in the room. But at his words she jerked up on her feet, shaking her head.

“No. Please.”

I don’t know why I care so much for someone I don’t even know.

You are important to me.

I need a friend.

Please?

“Stay with me. Until I fall asleep?” she asked, her nails digging into her own palms again.

Magnus nodded, holding onto her hand like she did with him when Alec had woken up the other day. “I’ll stay with you. Until you need me.”

“I don’t know what relationship we had before,” started Clary, settling back down on the pouf without letting go of Magnus. “And I don’t remember it. But I missed you, Magnus.”

The older man smiled, the weight of his years and memories suddenly feeling lighter than they had in years. “I never left.”
