Why don't you do one of your disney verse stories with princess Ivy from Sofia the First and her sister after all if you've arleady done one with the witch shuriki from Elena of Avalor which i really like by the way why not do one with the princess with power white, black after all you don't believe.
Look, I usually try to be very polite and give people the benefit of the doubt but this is getting annoying. I'd talk to you in private but your conversation seems to have disappeared from my DMs and since ignoring your many previous asks doesnt seem to have deterred you either I'll do it here.
Please stop asking me for Princess Ivy stuff. I've explained before that I'm not that interested in her, and after the last ask you sent where you said you'd "waited long enough" for me to do a backstory on her I have no interest at all in ever doing one.
I do these things for fun. I'm not getting paid, I'm not beholden to anybody to do anything. If I answer an ask its because I feel like it, if I do a backstory or any art it's because I'm actually interested in it, if I dont answer an ask it's because I don't have an obligation to if I find the contents demanding or uninteresting or simply using my blog to promote their own ideas with no real interest or tie in to my works here.
This is something that sadly seems to be happening more frequently. Guys, I dont mind seeing your own stuff or answering questions on topics, but like, use your own blogs to promote your original ideas, not mine, its only polite.
If all you really want is someone to echo back exactly the take on a character or headcanon you have, that's not what I'm here for. I can't mind read what you want me to say and I'm not going to just randomly add in things you think I should to a project I'm doing for fun and don't expect anyone else to be beholden to head canon wise.
It feels like most of the asks I get aren't from anyone actually interested in the stories I've been crafting here or even people interested in discussing Disney stuff as an actual discussion of two people who enjoy Disney characters and history but people who just want a random person to echo chamber them for a hot sec so they can feel good about their own thoughts and never interact more than that.
In conclusion, I will draw what I want to draw and I'll do it when I want to do it. This blog is ultimately for me, the artist and writer, to have fun with. Unless you're wanting to commission me to do something I don't have any obligation to draw anything for anyone, and even then I still reserve the right to say no if I want to.
Sorry about the rant to everyone who has been wonderful and supportive and actually interested. Thank you for being a positive motivator and good tumblr neighbors.

Nothing helps out the RPC members that have anxiety more than being a dick about not getting an interaction from a mutual. This is a hobby, if you can't understand that than leave. No one owes you interactions and if you are going to be a dick about it than honestly you don't deserve interactions. To be so entitle to say someone OWES you asks speaks volumes about you when you yourself didn't send any. Again, this is a hobby NOT a job. The people behind this accounts have lives outside the RPC. If you can't understand that, than leave.
#Out Of Ki | {OOC}#From The Heavens | {Mun Post}#Rules Of Combat | {PSA}#This is about any anons sending hate and shit#RPing is a HOBBY; we don't owe anyone anything#This is so suppose to be FUN; not a chore#If you can't understand that than LEAVE#Feel free to reblog this; do not need to ask

i know i post about this semi frequently but do not come to my dms and expect me to be your dom. don't ask if you can be my pet or my sub. taking on a sub is WORK. i have to give my time, my energy, i have to come up with tasks, rules, rewards, punishments. why would i do that for someone who followed me five minutes ago and is CLEARLY using me. it is a kink. you are a stranger i know nothing about, expecting things of me. you do not know me. you are using me. i don't care if you like my blog and think you like me. you don't, because you've ignored my pinned post where i say not to come to my dms and try to initiate. i will NEVER respond positively to this. ultimately this post doesn't matter because the people it applies to wouldn't bother reading it or would just ignore what i'm saying. but if you do this, if you ignore people's boundaries and try to get people to be sexual with you for your own gain, you are a bad person. that's it. be better. you are not the exception.
#j thoughts#so sick of this#i don't owe you anything#to anyone who is worrying: if we have already talked sexually you are fine!!#if we're mutuals you're fine!#this is to strangers who do not care about me and ignore my boundaries#femdxm

also I just think it's really unintentionally cruel to look at armand's life and go, see this piece, which is the only piece where you felt safe and happy and loved even if bad shit was also going on? actually it was rotten to the core and there is no part of your life that was ever safe. and the anger and terror you feel about the entire rest of your life must also be applied here because there was nothing salvageable about this time. which could in fact be a very in character thing for daniel to do lmfao but that's not how I ever really see it presented
#if anything I could see armand much more easily coming to be angry about marius never coming back for him etc#but I don't think he's ever going to wholesale throw out all of Venice.#maybe eventually he's like hey molesting me the minute you brought me home sucked and you shouldn't have done that#and you treated me callously because of your own doubts and foibles and that wasn't okay#and I think he IS owed an apology because marius literally KNOWS what he did wrong#marius outright tells us he knows what he did wrong! we know he knows#but I think the most that's ever going to come to is armand keeping him at arms length and not letting him be in his kids lives#anyway okay I'm just saying shit I've already said now I'm gonna stop thinking about vampires and Focus

being very truthful i wasn't feeling particularly positive about the trailer for TIT (still bought tix though hi nyc <3) and am holding out hope they do a little more teasing for what this tour is actually about in future videos,
but i cannot deny that this specific frame of it
("we basically raised half of them." - phil)
like very specifically got me? like obviously yes the bit is like, they're our dads i started watching them age twelve et cetera but. i don't know. with the way all of this is laid out, the contrasting colors that blend together and the silhouettes on their respective sides (as we always view them, dan to the left & phil to the right) and the screens, it says so loudly like... it's dan and phil, side by side. it's the two of them. it's been them for the last fifteen years.
it's a we, it's a testament that this kinda sacred thing of 'dan and phil' has lasted a really long time, and survived a hiatus, solely because dan and phil themselves have known each other and existed alongside each other for those fifteen years. and yes, obviously, this trailer is all scripted, but this exchange still has this feeling of it being about them, not just their brand together-- they aren't really talking to the audience, here, are they? it wasn't solely 'dan and phil' content that raised the audience; dan and phil did. (maybe a redundant point, but i am working off of the negative space here. a lot of this feels like intertwining themselves with their online personas, and simultaneously walking that line. letting us see only what they want to be shown, and now examining that introspectively).
i hope that makes sense, i'm not much of an analyst or theorist. i don't know what the dan and phil renaissance really is yet, and i am a bit afraid of it all, but i'm really excited, both for everything that's to come but also -- more importantly -- i'm just fucking excited for them.
for this bond between them and the phandom to blossom in the healthy ways it has been lately, for the opening of new doors amidst this phan renaissance... and for them to take back what the internet took from them.
#astra.txt#dan and phil#TIT tour#is this nonsense? sorry. i'm a little anxious right now so i'm writing my way through it#obviously okay to rb btw!! everything is unless you physically can't thanks to the helpful settings#also part of my crit mentioned at the beginning might honestly be due to the stressful experience of trying to get tickets-#-and then them dropping a like. non descriptive teaser. just kind of personally unsettled me#not that i particularly think they owe us anything like i made a conscious decision lol. do not take this as me Blaming Them-#-For Me Buying Tickets that's ridiculous. it's just a note.#also i don't really know how to phrase this in the post but i am not trying to overstep into assuming i know them as people etc.#like yeah we do only see what they want us to see. but that's kind of what this is about isn't it? a little bit? maybe.

When a person comes barging into your ask box claiming that you are creepy for being 30 in a fandom space writing smut of fictional characters 18 and over, claiming to be more mature than you, saying you are sexualizing minors, are a bitch and need to grow up.
#Bro I don't care what you think of me like literally actually I do not#Do you know why?#That exact reason I gave when I published that OG ask#We can agree to disagree#Clearly neither of us is going to change the other persons opinion#Live and let live my guy#Also I do not owe anyone coming into my asks with such bad faith questions on ANON anything#I do not owe you my kindness or softness or warmth#BHF asks#BHF speaks#Also yes this is about the Ethan Landry shit AGAIN

trying and failing to think of how to say this in a way that won't make wei wuxian fans mad at me, but while it can be true that you don't owe anything to others and you shouldn't be forced to stay in toxic situations, i feel there is a difference between protecting your peace and just refusing to engage with difficult situations because you don't want to. wei wuxian doesn't like people having expectations of him, because he doesn't want to feel obligated to meet those expectations. wei wuxian doesn't like having to manage other people's emotions or show his own, and he would much prefer everyone to repress and pretend like everything's fine until the problem is either forgotten or it blows up in his face. i admit i may be speaking from personal experience, but when wei wuxian says "it's water under the bridge, i've forgotten and so should you," what i hear is a refusal to engage and a dismissal of the other person's feelings. it's not the "mature" answer to me, it's the answer of someone who still doesn't want to take accountability for what they did and wants the obligation they have to just disappear.
which is why he goes with lan wangji and not jiang cheng because lan wangji does not ask wei wuxian for anything and literally does whatever wei wuxian wants. and like good for them, good that they're happy, but ultimately, cutting off anyone that pushes back and asks you to explain yourself... if you knew someone irl that did that, you probably would not think it was a great quality
i'm not saying it makes him a bad person, it makes him a person. but just because the protagonist thinks and acts a certain way does not mean they're automatically in the right, by virtue of being the protagonist.
#tagging this as#wei wuxian critical#even tho i love him to pieces i love him to the moon and back i really really do but#due diligence#so yeah anyways call me jc-pilled if you want but i was thinking about this again#and i guess the question comes down to what do we owe other people if anything#and i personally don't agree with the take that we owe them nothing#and ik some people will say oh but jc was abusive and i don't have time for that but no he was not#i don't think wei wuxian owes an explanation to literally every single person his actions ended up hurting#or indeed to most of the cultivation world#but i do think he owes jc an explanation#an explanation that potentially could have saved him in his first life if he could have taken that step#anywaysssss#ik too many people that the second i've pushed back on their reasoning i was blocked or frozen out#it's not a cool thing#mdzs

I cannot believe this has to be said but do not go after or harass Oliver, Ryan or any of the cast and crew for whatever happens on the fictional firefighter show.
#911 abc#oliver stark#ryan guzman#i'm mentioning those two specifically due to some things i've seen today#although this is pretty evergreen#stop it#they don't owe you anything#leave oliver alone especially#he takes the time to share with us his art via photos and behind the scenes#and i think we take that for granted

it's always sad to realize but people who never contact you first aren't your friends. i always let people into my heart very easily n it kinda comes around to bite me bc i always consider people friends even tho they aren't very friendly at all to me
#idk man like;;; i hang on like my life depends on it#not in a clingy way; more a 'even tho we haven't talked for 6 months' kind of way#but if i always Always have to start the convo#that isn't a friend yk??? i know that#in my head i know that#but i still have a really hard time letting people go#it's just sad bc i really don't require a lot of friendship energy either#we can not talk for weeks and i'll be just as happy to hear from you as when we talk every day#but like;;; idk at some point i gotta just let things go i guess bc#it just makes me really tired n sad#mutuals are great and all until they don't even treat you like#idK people dont owe others anything ofc#but i think it's the nice thing to do if you call someone your friend#ring ring

imo one of the reasons Lucy is such a breath of fresh air is specifically because she refused to be the emotional crutch for a man to find an ounce of sympathy. Time and time again you see in YA novels about the virtuous woman who “saves” the wicked man, even when it comes at her own expense. Lucy did the exact opposite, Snow wasn’t worth the effort nor was he worth “saving”. I think a lot of fans would’ve been happier if she was a sacrificial lamb for his man pain rather than a woman who put herself first.
This!!!
#I think they 100% would have liked her better if she died protecting him or refusing to leave his side#it is great that we got a character that shows young people that you don't owe toxic people anything and if they aren't good for you LEAVE#lucy gray baird#tbosas

No, I don't expect him to remain unchanged from when he was 18. However, his online demeanor and behavior have undergone a noticeable shift, and it has become rather unappealing. It seems like he is pretending to be edgy to please his very unlikable girlfriend. I listened to her podcast before they even became a couple; she radiates mean-girl energy and thinks she is edgy and cool. They once called Edvin "soft" and "not punk enough". She's trying to change him into a boy she likes, and he seems to be going along with it to please her. In time, he'll probably regret what he has been doing. You probably won't post this, it's OK, but you miss the point of what so many decent fans are saying. We aren't trolls; we have eyes and can understand what is going on. Anyway, have a nice time defending him.
Yep there it is. It boils down to not liking his girlfriend, its the same in every fandom I've been in, misogyny at its finest again
I'm glad you 'decent fans' know him all so much better than he knows himself and can see right through it and of course you know what's best for him and are entitled to comment on his personal life
This was quite funny reading, thank you for making me laugh
I will have a nice time defending him, thank you😘
#again if you don't like his choices or his gf that's not on him that's your problem#he doesn't owe us anything it's his life that he gets to live how he wants to and we fans don't have a say in it or have to 'approve' it#and you can turn your back on him do whatever you want just stop spreading negativity#i had to post this bc it's just so fucking ridiculous I can't#ask#anonymous

Also, just as an overall observation, I really can't help but wonder how much better things might be if we actually tried to teach kids about the complexities of the world, rather than "Protecting Them."
(But that's the one thing the right wing literally can't stand, so god forbid we do that.)
#hilary for ts#blanket blocking and censoring content has never worked in the entire history of anything#kids are small people#who will grow up to be big people#and they live in a complicated world#we owe it to them to create useful and age-appropriate answers even to tough questions that adults might find squicky#but so many adults are bound and determined to keep kids ignorant#because their entire sociopolitical power paradigm rests on raising kids who won't challenge its ideas#so you end up in a total alternate reality#and we've all seen how that works#so. like. adults are once again failing kids here#because we don't have our own shit together#and think that just pretending something doesn't exist will work#which again! it will not! kids are curious! they will find it anyway!#anyway. ANYWAY. 'protect the children' should be taken behind the woodshed and shot#it's stupid and it does nothing and it's not useful in the long term#especially the way the right wing in particular uses it#but the left is certainly not blameless either#sigh

you know if we do accept the last epilogue-esque sequence as a sort of dream/wish of ted's and therefore not necessarily canon, very funny if we then simply go "yeah, trent's book is called 'the lasso way' actually. he didn't change that. nope."
#listen on one hand#i think that like#i don't think ted actually changed trent's mind about the title#i think trent changed it because ted asked him to#and like that's especially interesting bc he even made a point of being like#'tell me if you disagree with anything and i'll tell you why you're wrong'#but he respects ted; more than that he likes him and he wants him to like the book--like him#anyone else and trent would have told them to fuck off but ted? ted asking him to change the title? yeah#i think he didn't agree with 'it not being about him'--and not bc of any feelings he may have for ted--but if we accept that him changing#the title is canon then like. he did it because ted asked. nothing more nothing less#maybe he felt he owed it to ted as the subject of the book; maybe he just respected him too much not to#maybe it's partially bc of his feelings; maybe it's because he just couldn't say no to ted#but it's ultimately just. because ted asked him.#and trent respects him; trusts him; cares about him#and that's pretty heartwrenching#but like on the other hand if we say 'no that was ted's wishufl thinking trent definitely went 'sorry ted it's called the lasso way''#also like.... him being like. like quietly not changing it and if ted said something him just. being like#ted. i respect you. i care about you. i trust you. but with all due respect absolutely not#yes it isn't ONLY about you but YOU made this happen. YOU are special and YOU have a place here whether you can stay forever or not#yes it's about the team and the coaches yes you aren't a one man band but ted. TED. you touched lives. you changed lives. and that was YOU.#that was you and your philosophy and your attitude.#you made richmond what it is today. yes the team deserve credit too for the kind of bond they have now but YOU facilitated that#none of the coaches currently here woudl be coaches if not for you. the diamond dogs wouldn't exist. literally every single one#of our friends--OUR friends--wouldn't be where they are and probably wouldn't be as happy#you got through to people over and over again who were hurting and lashing out. to rebecca. to roy. to jamie. to nate. to me.#and you can be humble but there's being humble and there's acting like you don't matter to any of us like you didn't have an impact#like you can just leave without a trace. we don't blame you for leaving--i especially don't--but acting like we won't miss you and like#your time with all of us--our time--meant nothing is more insulting than it is humble because we /love you/#and yes. it was the goddamn lasso way that built this place#this community.

I am not, like, a treasured fandom artist, & I didn't make some great masterpiece or nothing. I did make art, though, & I stopped around the time that doing that started getting harder -- I got busy, & the world got worse, & so did I. The few times I've tried to make a comeback were hard-fought, but the ratios are all off, now. The ratio of time spent to likes to reblogs to comments made me give up pretty fast.
I am not saying you owe an artist notes. I am saying that, especially for young artists that are learning, taking the time to reblog their stuff can make or break whether they keep posting it. I'm saying that the current artists are going to get old, or busy, & if you like looking at art or reading it or listening to it, you need to encourage that next generation now before they give up.
A like is fine, yes. A reblog is very much appreciated. A comment can make an artist's day. Please, please, please interact with artists who are giving you content for free.
#em.txt#please be kind to your artists#the fast reblog on mobile is next to the like button if you can like a post please consider fast reblogging it#on desktop there is a key that fast reblogs a post#google tells me it's the E key & you also press & hold it but i have no experience#a comment would be stellar but if you can reblog that already helps so much#the ratios used to be close to 50/50 now a 25 note post has 3 reblogs & the artist is one of them#if you can reblog a text post or a meme or a clip from a show or whatever why won't you extend that to art?#i am not saying you always need to reblog. i am saying this culture shift will leave artists in the dust#& then there's not going to be art anymore#please be nice to artists. you don't owe me anything just be nice to them#I don't consider myself an artist anymore. i already gave up. but there's shiny new people who haven't yet#& we need to help them out

LORD IF YOU ARE NEW TO THE FIC SCENE AND DONT HAVE AN AO3 ACCOUNT YOU ARE DENIED THE EXISTENCE OF FATAL ATTRACTION. TRAVESTY TRAVESTY TRAVESTY
YOU LITERALLY WOULD NOT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE MISSING.
#imagine being a dcrampage fan and not knowing fatal attraction exists#that's actually such a tragedy#fic writers don't owe you anything of course. all art is a moment in time. if she deleted it tomorrow it would exist on only in my memories#but#god how could you not mourn?#we should not erase ourselves in this way#i love you fatal attraction i love you selene#anyways#once again#everyone should make their own choices i fault no one for choosing to lock their fics#i just feel sorry for the casuals

Anyways. Side eyeing anyone who engages with a clear art reposter, specially one that deletes watermarks. This is an anime fandom there are more than enough official pictures and screencaps to go around. Value your fanartists more than some cheeky joke.
#I could be meaner but I'll save it for myself#also yes this is about the Royai fandom. if you know you know#but also in general like. I haven't talked too much about it but I left the cosmere fandom in part because of this#It honestly is just really annoying to see the art you worked for be used in a way you didn't want to#to be used for jokes or random comments that don't engage with the work#remember that you aren't owed anything by fanartists. we do things because we enjoy them and share them with you
