[lewdcanons]

lewdcanons is a secondary blog of @sparsilelove and @aeipathiclove -- all guidelines of my main blog apply here too! this page is for all my (likely canon divergent) adult plots involving canon characters. while i'm usually picky about canons and their portrayal, everything here is a little more chill and entirely #toohornyformain. characters under the cut 🥴

a note on gender: * indicates a genderswapped character. all muses can be played as cis or trans, but please don't use feminisation kink with trans guys in threads with me. i'm trans myself and it makes me super dysphoric, thanks!

for all of the fandoms mentioned, i'll most likely play anyone from that fandom -- just send me a message on main and we'll figure it out.

anon’s great cornucopia of maiaphael prompts, part 8

ANYONE CAN FEEL FREE TO GIVE THEIR OWN THOUGHTS ON THIS PROMPT

Pride marches with everyone! Malec and the polycule maybe the pack and clan too 

aaaaaaa another great one! i particularly like mixing this in with the idea that raphael and maia slowly become people that baby trans downworlders go to? you know? like they are just this huge iconic couple of color and they’re both also downworlders and trans and sometimes when people are struggling with their sexuality/gender, they just come for them. sometimes ace people go directly to raphael and stuff like that, but trans people usually like talking to them both. especially because they are just... so open about it and such important members of the community and everything, you know? many people admire them and follow their steps and so when they start to struggle they come to them. and with taki’s becoming a space that welcomes queer people as well that just goes double

which always fills them with so much pride and joy to be able to make other people’s lives a little easier than it was for them? you know? like they enjoy knowing that what they’ve been doing, as leaders and as members of the community and just by being vocal about themselves, is touching people and making such a difference, and that so many people seem to find them approachable and trustworthy. it’s really nice 

so i was thinking, them taking someone with them to Pride for the first time? of course they’ve been to pride plenty of times at this point, especially with the polycule, and someone close to them started slowly but surely opening up about being queer too and they go to pride with them. i’m thinking bat because i just really love nonbinary bat? (oops self promo) and she’s kind of Maia’s (and Simon’s) protege and i like to think that she also helps them out at taki’s, so... she kind of becomes raphael’s protege, too. and when she comes out as nonbinary to them, very hesitantly, they immediately welcome her with open arms and help her come to terms with that and figure out what she wants to do, you know? and they take her to pride and it’s so fun? she’s kind of self conscious as she’s still getting used to just.. big and crowded places and being so unapologetically herself, but it’s great. she has her little she/them pins and everyone respects that without blinking and that’s so exhilarating, you know? 

and raphael and maia are hand in hand, raphael has the ace pride flag painted on his cheek and a little trans flag wristband...... god i’m gonna need to lie down actually because raphael in wristbands and bracelets as a whole... and also he starts wearing the ace ring after a while and it just becomes something that he’s always wearing, once he finds out about it? and he’s smiling so wide in that way that he rarely used to, once, but that now comes easily for him, even with the noisy crowd (thankfully magnus has spells to dull the background noise and prevent sensory overload :) and they make sure to be more far behind the actual Huge Crowd for the people with sensorial issues, as well as bat who’s still getting used to all of this). and maia is just so happy in her dress and jacket filled with pride buttons and pins and patches!! some of which she even made herself?? or with raphael’s help? okay i’m gonna need to breathe but i might talk about something like this soon yeah okay it’s on my queue now stay tuned

anyway... the point is, they are happy and so... unapologetically themselves and bat’s eyes shine and raphael has that way of calmly showing her places and things. while simon and maia are more excited and dragging her all over the place. they just want to make sure she has The Best Experience, you know? each in their own way. and it’s nice

actually aaa everyone please send me more ideas about them at pride because there’s so much to talk about here!

Supportive at every turn

Relationship: Maia Roberts & Bat Velasquez

Characters: Maia Roberts, Bat Velasquez, Raphael Santiago (Mentioned), Meliorn (mentioned), Jordan Kyle (mentioned)

Additional Tags: very brief and non specific mention of The Polycule, Trans Maia Roberts, Trans Female Character, Trans Bat Velasquez, nonbinary Bat Velasquez, bigender Bat Velasquez, Coming Out, brief mentions of abuse, Jordan Kyle is an abuser, a little bit of internalized transphobia, this makes the whole thing sound heavy it's not tbh, it's just kinda fluffy initial coming out convo, one hundred percent self indulgent thing written on a whim

Summary: Bat figures they should start thinking about transitioning.

They go to Maia for help.

Read it on ao3

“Hey, Bat,” Maia greets, casually, as soon as Bat enters Taki’s. It shouldn’t really be surprising; the restaurant is not open yet, and this means that no one but the pack, Maia and Raphael’s partners, and the occasional clan member can get in. Most of the time, it’s Bat; but it’s not like Bat’s supposed to bring her anything today, and she knew who it was without even looking up.

Well. That ends any hope of having the time to take a deep breath before talking to her. A part of Bat wants to flee, but that would only make it worse when they were inevitably back. So, they give her the best smile they can, and sit on the counter, watching as she checks if she espresso machines are all running normally.

She finally looks up at them, raising an eyebrow. “You know we’re not open yet, right?” she asks, a mix of curiosity and comfortable casualness in her tone. It makes them relax, funnily enough. The whole thing feels normal for a second, even if for Bat it's anything but.

“Yes." They say, quickly, "I just, uh, wanted to talk to you.”

She looks up, her interest piqued. “Okay,” she says, putting her hands on the counter slowly, her lips pursed in something almost like a challenge. “Hit me. Is it pack business?”

“No,” they shake their head. They wouldn’t come to her on Taki’s for pack business, unless it was an emergency. They know that she already knows this, and as nervous as they know she knows that they are, this is definitely not their there-is-an-emergency behavior. They would never have become her second-in-command if it were. Pack leaders have to be quick on their feet, and lose as little time as possible.

Besides, very little counts as an emergency, these days. Even when there is a new person Turned, Bat and the others already know how to handle it at this point. And thankfully, that’s the hardest thing they usually have to do.

She nods, seeming thoughtful. “Is it about me?”

“Uh, no,” they answer, a little uncomfortable. “It’s about me.”

“Okay,” she answers, seeming to relax a little at those words, her worried stance taking calmer, steadier undertones. “And I assume it’s going to be long, since you came here,” she glances at the clock, “two hours before we’re open. So, do you mind helping me do inventory and everything? I’m sure you know the drill by now.”

“Yes, of course,” Bat says, thankful to have something to do, and they know just from looking at her smile that she knows exactly how much it helps. They’re a lot better at talking when they can keep their body occupied. Otherwise, it feels like they’re going to jump out of their skin.

Raphael confirms that they’re well stocked up, which doesn’t come as a surprise, since their deliveries come in magically and so never get late, or lost. Maia has already handled the hygiene and security checks, so they begin to set the tables, and soon she joins them. Almost as soon as that, they fall into an easy, repetitive routine of work, and their mind is suddenly not occupied anymore. Maia seems to simply wait for them to start talking, comfortable in her element and used to the easy routine before the restaurant opens.

“So,” they swallow, trying to get her attention, and she doesn’t avert her eyes from the table, but still nods shortly at them. “I think I’m bigender.”

“Okay,” Maia says, beginning to wipe the table before she can set it.

“Okay,” they repeat, still feeling like they’re psyching themself up. They knew Maia would be nothing but supportive, of course, but… Still. “And that doesn’t surprise you?” They ask, more curious than anything.

Maia finally looks up at them, even stopping her cleaning motions. “Your name is Bat,” she says.

“That’s from Bartholomew,” Bat counters, frowning, even as they kind of wince at the name. They never liked it, which- is stereotypical, but true. Besides, it just sounds plain ugly.

“Bartholomews are nicknamed Bart,” she counters, “you specifically chose to make another nickname, that’s more neutral sounding and the name of a random animal that’s usually considered yucky. If that’s not a nonbinary move, I don’t know what is.”

She has a point. Still, they cross their arms briefly, just on principle. They struggled with this for years, more than they’ve spent struggling with having been Turned, and the whole thing feels very anticlimactic.

“I’m glad you told me,” she says, honestly. “Are you going to change your pronouns? It’s okay if you haven’t decided yet,” she adds quickly.

“Uh, I’m testing them out,” Bat admits. “I think- they and she both work. I’m not against he, but…” they trail off. But it feels a little invalidating, especially as they barely started transitioning. But they know that Maia understands this.

“Okay,” she says. “I’m happy for you. Thank you for telling me." Then, after a little thoughtful pause, "Do you want to talk about it? Your process? Or did you just want me to know?”

“I, uh,” they stumble a little, unsure of how to go on with words. “I was hoping you could, help me? With the transition? You know, teach me,” they make a vague gesture with their arms, “how.”

She smiles, something almost like laughter. “There’s no ‘how’, Bat. It all depends on what you want.”

“Well, yes, but I can’t just,” they gesture at themself, “stay like this.”

Maia frowns. “You could, if you wanted to. There’s no right or wrong way to be trans, Bat. And- well, I don’t know that for sure, but I think when you’re nonbinary, figuring out how you want to present is trickier. It’s a big spectrum. So there's also that, but even if there weren't, you don’t have to change your appearance at all. Or if you do, you can take it slow, see what seems right for you.”

They frown. “Didn’t you start ttransitioning pretty much as soon as you figured out you were trans?” They ask.

“Well, yes,” she says, a little sheepish. “But I was desperate. I- really wanted to look ‘like a girl’,” she does little air quotes, “and I knew I wanted to run away from home, so I had to figure out a way to do that before I left. And then there was Jordan.” She looks away.

Right. Of course. Jordan wanted her to look like a real girl as soon as possible. Bat almost slaps themself in their insensitivity. “I’m sorry,” they say.

She smiles, an affectionate, precious thing. “It’s not your fault,” she says, and they’re happy to see she isn’t fully hiding the pain in her eyes; Jordan is not a topic that destroys her anymore, but it’ll always be an ugly scar, and they’re happy that Maia trusts them enough to see the glimpses of hurt that still linger when he’s brought up.

She starts putting the vases on the table. The flowers today are a delicate yellow, blooming with the promise of vividness. Courtesy of Meliorn, Bat knows.

“I’m just saying that my case- well, it was mine. Yours is yours. If I had had more time, I might have taken it slower. Gone to a doctor, maybe. I don’t know,” she shrugs. “So you have time to figure out what you want, and how you want it. You know we’ll all support you.”

“I do,” they answer easily, fiddling a little with their hands. It feels almost silly, the nervousness they had felt, even as they knew it was more their fear of voicing it for the first time than anything. “Thank you for that, by the way.”

Maia smiles. “No problem, Bat.”

They have to turn around to hide a smile. Which is ridiculous. Maia has called them Bat their whole lives. There’s nothing different about this.

And yet, the smile stays.

[my-lady-of-roses]

In these last few days I've seen a lot of hate towards CC, and I mean a lot. And even though I agree with some of the points that have been made, I think those words that have been tagged to her like "disgusting," "gross," or "terrible person" are excessive and unjust. I feel uncomfortable with some decisions that Cassie has made with the diversity she wants to portray. I'm not the kid I was when I read her work for the first time, but I am still grateful. Because in 2007 (I read it in 2009 but still) we entered in a hotel full of vampires, and the three main ones were a Latino boy, an Asian girl and a black guy. And they were vampires, they were bad guys and they were cool. I still find it exceptional. Before Magnus I didn't know you can be bi, or a guy who uses make up, and still be cool. And these things have multiplied over the years, and these are things young people need to see. TSC's cast of characters has become the most diverse one I've ever seen (and if you know some one better (or similar), please let me know). Even when I differ with her in the form she reprensents diversity, and even been perfectly aware that it is not perfect, I am grateful, because it is the best we have.

I've done this list with every diverse character I could think of, you can tell me if I forgot someone. I only put the labels we are certain about, although we can intuit some others.
