#there's been a bunch of shit in evas tag that has left a sour taste in my mouth but i try to be so brave about it...

Good timezone... At the risk of sounding overly familiar, how do you(&)... become *okay* with being yourself/ves? The Dankovsky part... I feel my resolve, my comfort in my own skin, weaken whenever I hear another trite post making fun of the canon character, or call him evil and cruel and one-dimensional, emasculate him for being a dandy, etc.. Feel free to ignore my request for advice - you(&) owe me nothing. I wish you (all) a good day regardless!

-that Daniil Dankovsky anon from the previous ask

you don't have to feel so bad for asking that, daniil… in my opinion i feel like this fandom is very peculiar in how it sees many of the characters from this game… i don't really understand where daniil being "evil" comes from. but, at the same time, i don't ever see people as evil.

my advice (as well as some of my friends) is that you have to act confident and not let what everyone else is saying get to your head... for me, i've been creating a lot more art than i used to. drawing eva with a fat body like mine and loved for it. and on top of that i've surrounded myself with friends that i trust whole-heatedly and support me.

idk if any of these words help you at all... but i personally think daniil is a complex person who is worthy of love and respect and it hurts me to see how people are so cruel to him
