今は転職をし、毎日充実した日々を過ごしているので、あまりハンドメイドはできていませんが、あの頃ハンドメイドに出会っていなかったら、今の私はきっといません。 それくらいほんとに毎日なにかを作ることにしがみついていました。 毎日の「達成感」によって生かされていました。

~

と、まぁ、長々と徒然なるままに書いてきたけど、結局何が言いたいかって、 「手作りって楽しい！！」 ってこと。 人のために作るのも、自分のために作るのも、なんのためにも、楽しいのです。 ただそれだけ。

you ask for happy trans stories i DELIVER

It was New Year's 2022 and I was at a family gathering with some extended family that I didn't know too well/hadn't seen in years/hadn't seen bc they hadn't been born yet, and I'd cut my hair pretty short for the first time. So I was entertaining one of my younger cousins, and we get on the topic of having ears pierced, because this little seven year old girl was bragging about getting hers done for the first time and "it didn't even hurt at all!!" And I told her "wow!! I've never even got my ears pierced."

Then she went, "yeah... That's because you're a boy?"

My genderqueer little heart EXPLODED. I'd never passed before. I'm not even a boy, I was just happy I'd managed to come off as androgenous enough to fool her. I should have probably told her then that boys can get their ears pierced too, but all my mind churned out was, "oh, I... I'm not a boy, I'm a girl!" (Also a lie but I'm not outing myself at a big family function.)

And I could SEE the cogs working in her brain. The realisation of presenting a certain way doesn't mean you are of that gender. And for the rest of the night, she treated knowing that I was a girl as Special Information she was Proud of Knowing. That "I know this person looks like a boy, but they're actually a girl!!! Isn't that neat!!!" attitude she never explicitly said but made me smile, because I was the first GNC person she'd ever interacted with. She'd take me and my cousin's hands and go "come on, LADIES, let's go" with a pointed, proud look at me, or go "let's do grown up girls dress up! [Insert name] is invited!!" Like bless you little girl I wasn't even that androgenous to begin with but I keep this in my heart at all times.

OH MY GOD THAT IS THE SWEETEST........ my little cousin wiremu was born before I transitioned but he got the hang of my new name and pronouns SO FAST and without question. thank you to my auntie for being the coolest ever...... I love it when kids are just Normal about trans and/or genderqueer people. the "oh okay!" attitude is so good and silly

Hentai lookin ass Bill.

A couple more "suggestive" drawings under the cut:

I hesitated on posting these last two so much when I was drawing them, but that was like two weeks ago, and now I'm just numb to it. WHO CARES JUST TAKE THIS!!

I alluded to drawing more "suggestive" billford stuff a while back, and ironically, THIS ISN'T EVEN WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT SKJDFGDSH I was talking about something else I was planning on drawing. This just sorta happened.

I hope you like these!! Let me know if you want more.

oh, and the first drawing was originally rotated on its side, but I decided I liked it flipped around. That's why his coat is up like that. That's gravity babey!!!!

“‘I just…I thought you might like to come back, one day,’ Crowley said very quietly. Aziraphale’s foot pressed against his again, and Crowley drew in a sudden breath, as if he hadn’t been breathing properly since Aziraphale had stopped touching him.”

This piece was a commission from the lovely @fellshish for their lovely friend, @alphacentaurinebula ‘s fic What Are You Doing Here? This fic is cute, funny, heartwarming, and incredibly spicy, and I’m very much looking forward to finishing it! Thank you Fells for being wonderful to work with, and happy (belated) birthday to you Alphacentauri, I’m very happy I could do this for you!

When I broke the cycle, I made sure that the tear was rough. You carry a part of what should be her, and she carries a part of what should be you.

I've never been explicit about this because I'm a Fandom Old, and back in the day it was simply understood that anything on the Internet was fair game to do with what you wish, but: if you see a story of mine out there and you like it, download it. Fuck if I care. Keep it for yourself, distribute it to friends, print copies for yourself and your friends, mail it to people, I don't give a shit. As long as you're not exchanging money, I couldn't care less. And tbh you should be doing this with all fanfics you love - print them, save them, put them on a flash drive or a hard drive or share them with friends, whatever. Fanfic authors these days are really fucking precious about their fics, but honestly we're probably going to start seeing queer art being disappeared (especially in the US under the next president) so do whatever you can to archive the things you love to read. Even if that means just printing them out and sticking them in a binder for yourself to read as a bedtime story.
