#hello everyone how are you?#I hope everything is doing alright! from my part I can say life is treating me well lately#and I feel very light and okay#I am here mainly to get things straight#I saw an anon going around some other blogs talking about me#saying I am an hater and I shouldn’t be writing larry fics#I think this is the same anon that I blocked some weeks ago#because they told me I should not use Harry for clout (????)#and I want to say only one thing because I don’t care of defending myself on this website anymore and that is#it’s not clout and it’s not easy#being a (new) writer here is not easy because people don’t care what you do and there is definitely not clout around me#im not using harry to gain anything#if anything I am constantly questioning whether I am somehow good at writing silly stories and putting myself out there for people’s judg#*judgement. and I promise you it’s not always nice#especially when this place doesn’t like people who you don’t always agree with#especially when you are blocked by half of this side of fandom (larries because I had said something in the past that they didn’t like)#louies because im a larrie ergo I hate louis (???) and harries because i dont care about Harry as much as they do#so no I am not ashamed of writing and I am not ashamed of writing giving my characters#(that rarely have anything to do with H/L irl) thei#their names and physical features#and honestly people like you anon should definitely stop to play this stupid game of fandom police#deciding who can read what and who can write what#because this actions only affect new writers in the way that#they will be alienated. they will feel alienated#and this whatever this fandom is shouldn’t be about that#ever. you don’t know what people go through every fucking day#you definetely dont know how this sort of silencing mission you have going on#will affect people on the internet and their mental health#stop defending the imaginary people you think H/L are and start treating people in this fandom as actual human beings#and since you probably would like to know this: I am not currently working on any project because i am fucking scared of reaction like this

Say c!Dream gets a cat. What's he naming it
hmm. im inclined to say that he'd avoid giving it a name for awhile--it's a pretty stupid cat to be following him, to be fair. objectively speaking, he's not exactly the safest person to have a cat, of all things. similarly to how he dodges the question with techno's dog in the prison--look, it's a pet, god knows what happens to pets on this server. it can live its own life perfectly fine eating fish or whatever.
...okay, fine, the cat won't leave him alone. ugh. when he does actually start thinking about names, i think he's gravitating towards one that's relatively simple, probably not going for anything too grand or with too much meaning--it's just a cat, come on now. at the same time, he's not going to name it, like, muffin or something, that's just stupid. it has to be suitably cool and perhaps villainous. (the cat comes very, very close to being named nightmare.) mix in the fact that he's got a habit of quoting/referencing animated movies (spirit :() and the fact that the cat is a beastly little thing that keeps getting into scrapes...
...is how c!dream ends up with a cat named scar.
#my asks !!#yes named after that scar#i like how it straddles the edge of c!dream's Cool Villainisms and the simpler stuff that often identifies him#on one hand it's suitably edgy and on the other hand it's not overcomplicated#and literally refers to a physical feature of the cat#fun balance to me#i'm not the best with names . so this is the best ive got

wizzy was down for maintenance so I drew my Young Wizard while I (impatiently) waited
#chickenscratch#w101#wizzy101#wizzy fandom#wizard101#the young wizard#Galathea (Eurydice)#I've reached lvl 97!!#my hc that the more magic a wizard uses the more it takes over their features physically. like the fire teachers hair or#those black eyes on malistaire. in this case my YW hair is a cloud and becomes light or stormy depending on her mood#i call her Galathea but you cannot choose that name in game so i go by Eurydice instead <//3#not that it matters considering none of the npcs call you by name anyway dskjafjd#the frankenbunnys name is Gigi. i love her shes great she heals me and freaks other players out lmao#dont remember any of the lore surrounding the frankenbunny so my idea is that Gigi is a botched nercomancy attempt by my YW#half stuffed animal. half actual hare#Galathea had a bad mental health episode early into arc 1 and Made herself a Friend#anyway don’t let diviners perform necromany you get THAT#i realise now the words i was looking for were ‘living taxidermy’

Haven’t really been engaging with that much Genshin stuff because I’m so bummed about natlan…..
Like it all sucks, but speaking about something I have personal connection to:
I want to like Mualani (the white-hair, shark girl)….her name is from on a real Hawaiian chieftess, it’s also very close to my IRL name (Meilani)….also I freaking love sharks.
I want to be excited at cultural representation. But as an (admittedly white passing) mixed-Hawaiian myself—I’m just sad—not even at my palest in the midst of winter am I that pale. It feels like a betrayal to reference different cultures but not earnestly portray the people within.
Anyway, no hate to anyone who does like her, but please keep an open heart for your POC genshin friends or content creators who are sad and angry.
#they are pulling from diverse cultures for inspiration but then actively ignoring the peoples of these cultures.#at this point it’s not ignorant. it’s insulting#I’d almost rather they not engage with the culture at all rather than make a mockery of it.#I’d probably still be annoyed but not as mad if her name wasn’t DIRECTLY FROM HAWAII’S HISTORY????#also her white hair is fine#but I wish there was more texture/curl/or Hawaiian hair style in it#I’m not the most educated to talk on this#because I live on the mainland and most my hawaiian family has passed#so I my identity is largely made up of my physical feature and the childhood/teenage memories I have of the culture.#but it’s still a part of me that I cherish and try to maintain and I am so angry at Hoyoverse#genshin impact#genshin#natlan#hoyoverse#mihoyo#Mualani

-cracks knuckles-
I don't have twitter and I've never drawn a Miku before in my life, but I adore that trend happening rn and wanna drop down my two cents, so let's go with the research to make a Hatsune Miku: but she is from my family (hard to explain, but it's absolutely Texan)
#ghostie mumbles#looking up some native american jewelry from the ones in my genealogy to be accurate and true#as well as merging it with some casual wear and subtle cowboy stuff.#culture stuff for me and my family is very lowkey and more in what you'd see as little details scattered around the house--#--and houses of my relatives. so this is gonna be a very tame Miku but it's gonna be a nice little depiction of my heritage n stuff#I am going to have at least 1 piece of jewelry that represents the native american tribe sin my genealogy which is..#tbh.. as close as I am with that side of me. I'm so far removed that my physical features are so subtle you'd have to look closely to see i#everything I know came from my grandma on my dad's side and the powwows we have gone to when I was younger before they all--#--kinda.. stopped happening and moved to the big one called 'red earth' which is out of state for me#I liked the small ones.. the smells. the food. the music. getting to see the regalia of dancers.. the beautiful art and jewelry and trinket#--and figures you could buy.. it was always so nice getting to go.#at least the state fair has some stalls dedicated to native american artists who craft and sell similar things#one thing they don't have tho is the fry bread. and now I really want some. :(#ANYWAYS Gonna mark down the jewelry and the tribe name next to it as I find it and get that noted before moving on with everything else#I wanna make her look cute and interesting. will also definitely be looking into hairstyles and clothing. taking inspo from my own family#all this just for a dumb miku drawing#I do my best to try and do research for my pieces!!!! mostly.

"mutants are poc analogy" "mutants are queer analogy" Listen, X-Men and as such mutants as a whole should really be disability representation, and I mean representation and not analougous to it they just occassionally also get to blast ice while having furniture not built for them, struggles with keeping their mind in the present, and constantly having people casually discuss sterilizing or euthanizing them and being considered either dangerous or simply incapable of understanding when they get mad about this. But nobody is ready for this conversation.
#Marvel#X-Men#But no as someone who is queer and also has untreated disabilities#Plays at saying being antimutant is metaphorically homophobic mostly just pisses me off#And I'm sure people of color aren't thrilled when Mutants As Analogous To Racism comes up since most of the big names are white#And more often than not this is usually used for Marvel to avoid actually talking about the real issues#Nevermind rarely combine in an interesting way when you do get a gay mutant or a poc mutant or a gay poc mutant#However any time they run into the world simply not being built to accomodate their physical or mental needs and get sneers for asking#You can immediately see me doing the Leonardo DiCaprio point#“but what about Homo Superior” nobody in the 616 knows how genes work because the writers don't#And as a scientist if I have to see X-Gene pop up one more time I'm going to transmogrify into Galactus and eat the planet#One of the biggest experts on Mutant biology is from the Victorian era why are we listening to him#Anyway where are the DIY accomodation features for people with tails or touch telepaths#Rogue basically had to be bubblewrapped most of her life once her powers kicked in#Scott has literal braindamage on top of his powers so he's either blind or colorblind if he doesn't want eyebeam everything#Magneto and Polaris's mental instability probably is related to their electromagnetics fucking with their brains#And Also They Both Have Hella PTSD#Hank has had to make shit that's big enough for him or just run around in boxers#Kurt literally had to use holograms to hide his physical appearance and sometimes still does or has to wear concealing clothes#Logan has chronic pain and rips his skin open any time he pops his claws#Big Fuckoff Migraines plague all psychics#And we have ALL of the Morlocks EVER#Isn't Hellion using his powers to make up for having no hands??#Or at least was before they walked it back like they did the Professor needing a wheelchair#I just think there is an argument to be had here about this

Finally watching Overlord with AD. Already noticed an interesting choice of wording, with the narrator using "Nazis" and "Nazi soldiers" instead of "German soldiers." You could argue it's less technically accurate, but serves a purpose, and it's a reasonable decision in the context of the story. Audio description is cool.
Edit: They use a combination of "Nazis," "Nazi soldiers," "Germans," and "German soldiers." The choice is still significant.
#so far boyce (the only prominent black character)#is the only character whose race has been explicitly mentioned#which is usually a problem#(i've seen some ad that's really bad about treating whiteness as an unremarkable default and only signally out poc)#but on the other hand there have been two minor black characters#one who was described by the most prominent unique trait “bald”#and one who was immediately given an name and was never time to physically describe#the other white male characters are given quick descriptors#“scrawny” “fresh-faced” “dark-haired” and “blond”#(the last of which does imply race)#the “scrawny” (tbh i'd've gone with gangly) soldier is quickly named rosenfeld and he calls attention to the implications of that name#it's true that there are people who will consciously or unconsciously equate “fresh-faced” and its implications of innocence with whiteness#but i don't know if that's a fault or in the control of the ad itself#boyce is of average height and build with no striking physical features like scars or a distinctive haircut#“dark haired” would have been the only non-racial description available but also applies to another character#and it's impossible to deny despite the movie's general stance of colorblindness#that it is significant that the hero of this ww2 movie is a black soldier and the plot doesn't center on his race#so in whole it's interesting#the choice would in a vacuum be problematic#but in context is i think probably the best choice for smoothly providing the necessary information#which is the purpose of media accessibily tools like ad#like i said#ad is really interesting

After last night's spectacular success (really, thank you for humoring me), I'm now looking at what it would take to upgrade the avatar. And while I know it would be quite easy to commission someone (other than that person because reasons), first I have to know what I am going to commission them for.
And, well, I haven't thought that far ahead yet.
This isn't a matter of Noxporium Branding, because I already know I will be using a different avatar (if I use one at all) for the professional side of readings. It's just, I have hidden myself for so long, I don't know what kind of face I want others to see. (?)
For years, I used a transparent 1x1 gif for my icon here on Tumblr. Before that, I used a crop from a picrew that was framed in an ouroboros because so magical, so woo. But I can count on one broken hand how many of y'all have seen my face.
I am replacing one mask for another, and I do not know what I want to be.
And I know it is because I'm not sure what I am.
And that's humbling.
#That coworker that kept pushing their commissions didn't blacklist themselves because of how pushy they were.#But because they insisted that they already knew what would be the ideal avatar for me.#And started listing attributes and features that were very much NOT for me.#In what universe am I going to allow this person to use me as their personal dress-up toy? None.#“Just trust me. I know what visual features will bring out your personality!”#Only to name the one physical feature that I have admitted at being dissatisfied with.

Two biological father? Is this a batman situation where Apollo just kinda combined his dna with pa gucket’s? Or was pa apollo’s lover and ma had nothing to do with it. Sorry i haven’t been paying attention and that caught my eye.
Oh, you mean like Superboy? Who is, quoting Lois Lane on Smallville, the genetic love child of Clark Kent and Lex Luthor?
Nah, it's not like that.
At least, I don't think so.
So, in the Trials of Apollo series, it's revealed that Apollo has a demigod child whose mortal parent is a (presumably) cis man. And Apollo's basically just like "yeah I mean I'm a god of course I can have a baby with someone regardless of their ability to bear children".
In the first Percy Jackson series, meanwhile, it's established that the children of Athena are not born from sex, but rather a close intellectual and emotional connection, and, presumably, are birthed from Athena's skull in the same way Athena was born from Zeus's.
When it came to Angie in my Olympian Falls AU, I decided to combine these two ideas. Because it makes the most sense for Angie to be a child of Apollo, but Apollo would be more likely to go for Pa McGucket, not Ma McGucket. And also, Ma McGucket would never cheat on Pa McGucket, and I didn't want to go down the rabbit hole I went when I first started developing the AU, of having Ma McGucket thinking she was having sex with Pa McGucket, but it was a god in disguise.
(If you look far enough back in my Olympian Falls AU tag you can see that initial version of the AU, before I changed it after learning Apollo can have children with dudes.)
That is in line with what the gods would do in traditional Greek mythology, but a bit out of bounds for their behavior in the Percy Jackson books.
(Also, with how self-centered Apollo is in the Percy Jackson books, I doubt he'd change his appearance to someone else to get with someone. Like, he thinks he's the hottest shit, he ain't gonna change that.)
ANYWAYS
I wound up going with this:
Pa McGucket meets Apollo (pretending to be human, of course) at a bar and strikes up a friendly conversation. Pa McGucket is a master sharpshooter, a lover of the arts (he likes to do art, but couldn't ever follow that dream due to his responsibilities), and a fantastic musician/singer. He checks off so many of Apollo's boxes. Apollo keeps trying to make moves on Pa McGucket, but Pa McGucket keeps politely turning him down.
But Apollo can't get this guy, this perfect man, out of his head. And so from the bond he formed with Pa McGucket, he creates a child as a gift for Pa McGucket. After all, the gods view their demigod children as gifts for their mortal lovers, and Apollo wants to give this mortal man something special. Which winds up being Angie. And Apollo pats himself on the back for this, because a child of his is like, the best gift he could give someone, in his mind.
(The exact mechanics behind Angie's creation, uh, I don't know, because the books aren't giving us the mechanics behind Athena's children and the child Apollo has with a cis guy.)
Angie, like all the children of the goddesses, which are born on Mount Olympus, is brought down to Earth by Zephyrus in a golden cradle. On the same day that Lute is born. So Ma and Pa McGucket, after a firm conversation in which Pa McGucket is terrified his wife is going to leave him (which I have already written up but for some reason never posted? I better fix that), decide to act like Angie and Lute are twins and Angie's just a normal kid.
But, of course, Angie isn't just a normal kid.
She's a demigod.
#Angie sticks out amongst her siblings with the traits she inherited from Apollo#(namely her physical prowess and perfect tan)#but bc she has the McGucket Nose(TM) and other features from Pa McGucket#no one really questions her parentage#they're just like ''man genetics are weird I bet those traits come from a few generations back''#(I cannot believe I didn't post Angie's birthday for this AU#I've had it written up for so long I could have sworn I did but I just checked#AAAAAAAAAAA I gotta post it!)#anyways sorry for the long response I got excited to answer your question#Olympian Falls AU#ask#agent-jaselin

Dear John Venomgaia, I hope this ask finds you well. For no particular reason, I'm wondering if your sona has a reference sheet. Have a great night, and keep yourself safe. Platonically yours; Jon Anonymous.
SO, THIS MADE ME REALIZE I HAVENT MADE A PROPER REF SINCE THE SONA WAS FIRST DESIGNED IN LIKE....2018ish? here's a simpler version of a ref that i spedran making to remedy that sjdjndjnsjsjsnnj
the paragon n pistachio styles are just variants, theyre the same dude. Sona lore is that he's an shapeshifter agent of an Elder God, and his job was to keep an eye on humanity and the species of earth as they progressed. He mostly kept to the seas n his preferred form is the "Fish" esque form. one day he goofed up royally and now as punishment, his shapeshifting has been limited, and he's being forced to do a bunch of tasks for various elder gods whilst also living amongst humans (instead of simply observing from afar). He doesnt mind it too much, although he would like to be able to return to his 48 foot long kaiju form under the ocean sometimes.
he has a lot of variants n these are his more common ones, but tldr these are all the same character/sona, just in different eras/places/situations!
but...why, pray tell, do you ask stranger? 🤔
#driftoodles#sona#specifically: he cant fully access his full kaiju form without a sacrifice of specific physical components. he keeps them in a charm#that he wears on his choker but bc it takes a while to make the charms he uses them sparingly#n when in his dog/werewolf forms he's actuslly still subject to chsnging with the moon. which is ANNOYING to him#and the ell is just a fun doting lil design just smthn silly#he has a monhun style form as well but its not humanoid its a leviathan shaped elder dragon#named tethyterus. hes actually somewhere else in here under my sona tsg#but was mostly used in prints during undergrad#his kaijunobori tail is from one of those prints :3#this doesnt feature his base paragon tail but thats bc it. literally takes up too much space skhsjhshjsjhs ill post his furry ref soon#chewing on you whoever you are (friendly)

oh there is something disturbing about being able to not just tell a book is a poorly repackaged fanfic from just the (terrible) blurb and flipping to a random middle page
but being able to tell from just that blurb and single page which specific ship it was repackaged from
#to be fair there's a distinctive physical feature they did NOT change and the names the same first letter lol#also im not specifying further bc i truly try to forget about that fandom lol
