Xenogender and Ao3 and Art
Hi xenogender and xenoaesthetic folks, entities, and realms and all and none,
it has occurred to us that we um, have written the majority of works on Archive of Our Own that have the xenogender tag. And we’re asking ourselves, we can’t be the only [(alien) robot] persons that plays around with this stuff right? (we’re plural btw)
When we talk to trans folks whether plural or nonhuman or no a bunch of folks relate to our terminologies we’ve come up with and sometimes giving people a look at the worldbuilding doc we’re not quite ready to post yet helps especially if they aren’t going to read fics generally, but also we know that our own experience with aesthetics that our oldest headmate struggled with for more than two decades to put words to and we helped her grasp she pronouns for, for herself in non-human history and assemblage terms, is just one small part of the vast xeno aesthetic spectrum. We’re just one system, and we want to know... what stories have you written, or are writing or making? We thought it might be cool if people reblogged around with their own stuff so their could be a post where all our stuff is together. More than anything- we feel a bit lonely sometimes, because being both on a xeno aesthetic spectrum and by and large a bunch of robots- we are beloved by our community and friends and loved ones, for which we are very thankful, and know a folks who can relate, but we wanna know what people are up to, or just thoughts.
So for those unfamiliar with us, our fanfic (we will eventually do original fiction) is about (Trans)formers and navigates hopepunk stuff regarding autonomy and aesthetic iteration with sparring, family, war, subaltern and community, love, diplomacy, gestalt consciousness, and so forth, drawing in part on the beautiful lore from seven different gender expansive canonical transforming robots in particular before Transformers Earthspark hit and introduced Nightshade (aside from how their whole choosing alt mode thing very much feels like choosing aesthetic expression and in Twitch’s case came before her pronouns were used but anyway) but specifically Arcee(s), Anode, and Lug. Our pg-13 or g-rated works thus far are mostly in the Autosignet Cycle aside from a few shipping fics. The Autosignet Cycle, mostly set in an original continuity, is probably going to continue for years with more fics to come, we started planning out very early versions of this in 2020 but tfwiki’s discord is what jumpstarted our first fic for the series, Day of Multiflame:
1. Day of Multiflame (complete)
A day of mirth, of memory, of rejoicing, of flames dancing together. On this ancient Camien holiday, some plucky heroes young and old across assemblage including two organics come together to celebrate, and to face the struggles ahead, of transformer majority worlds approaching outright conflict over rejoining the largest treaty organization of the galaxy… All the while ancient conflicts and motives beyond their current understanding overshadow everything, rolled up in the origins of these transforming robots. Between intergenerational family, swords, gifts, and I love yous and more, the steadying of each other is enough, to have a little bit of joy and wisdom on this Day of Multiflame. 
2. Wheels of Mutuality and Symbiosis (complete)
Glyph tries to lucid dream to solve the puzzle of her sleep issues, not all is as it seems- but her love of Tap-Out and what informs her aesthetic experience runs strong, helping her through to some long awaited elucidations that are big if true.
This has some big zoomdare energy but I think that is what I often will end up writing.
3. Hold on to Your Dancing (complete)
In honor of xenogender visibility day (May 15th)- I resolved to write two poems, one about my own experience remains unfinished, but one in honor of robot aesthetics via fanfiction was something I was able to finish.
Here you'll find some hints about my plot - some of what this story is on about - with a visiting of the past: the beginning of the last territorial campaign of the Anti-Functionist War, from two war veterans you'll meet later.
4. Honey I’m Cheering For You But No (complete)
A blast to the past before the Anti-Functionist War- archivist Prowl is trying to sort out his life, hasn't been so easy for him after an awful job that has left him very sensitive to the disquiet of society as the very subtly not so Golden Age reaches an end. His old friends Arcee and Aileron who unintentionally helped spark his journey are visiting- and he is beside himself. What does it all mean to him, to them, to carry on as they do, to transform?
In short, we the author finally give some answers with words to the slice of life actions you saw play out in Day of Multiflame- answers very much in context with Sparkflung Trust.
5. Rekindling Flight (incomplete, 7/13 chapters)
At long last, The vast majority of transformers, residing in the Planetwell Polity Alliance, are about to rejoin the largest galactic alliance, which the PPA originally helped create and was expelled from after the Unicron invasion and the subsequent thousands year long war with Functionist usurpers. But, all is not well- threats loom from all corners upon the Autobot revolution: Decepticons, Unicronists, Functionists, and deep existential problems with past, present, and future will try people from all walks of life fighting for intergenerational hope and love.
Nonetheless, something new and wonderful yet old and familiar is afoot- efforts by trillions and their many subalterns are not vain: the power and practice of iterative story.
6. Addendum (incomplete, estimated 10/30 chapters)
7 million years ago, the latest blow to gender on Cybertron is dealt by the rising Functionist tide, stirring an Arcee struggling with loneliness and aesthetic dysphoria into enraged action to help bots in the Hadean System across the aesthetic spectrum save their transformative glory and stories… in the process, she finds aid from the scientist Jhiaxus, who also offers her a new reformatting surgery to let her spark do shaping with CNA editing help. Thus begins a new chapter in her life as a founding member of the expansion of what would later be called the Anti-Vocation League alongside her beloved partner and fellow old person Codexa, while grappling with her own growing pile of pains and traumas. As the millennia carry on and she heads to space, she eventually meets Anode and Lug in the stars, and some dear moments near the present all the way through to events after Transformers: Optimus Prime #25: Post… where she helps some gender expansive bots, and with help from Aileron and her pals she finally gets some answers and closure to her own self, and has a reckoning with forces pitted against her for millions of years. The years after are not what she expected during most of her life prior, and she is glad for them…
This is a fanfic revolving around IDW1, that seeks to add to her already detailed and beautiful arc of a trans woman errant warrior sage coming to terms with herself and deciding to trust people and herself. We love her transformations very dearly, and wanted to attempt to reconcile her appearance in Spotlight: Arcee with her later writing, drawing on wisdom gathered through study and experience, and imagination to connect the dots. As you can tell just from the mention of Codexa in the tags above, this revisiting of IDW1 Arcee’s tale is in part made possible by later writing of gal transformers who we adore, and we will note we draw from ones from all across the decades of fiction of Transformers. What can we say, we love them, and know so much more about ourselves than we ever would have because of them.
For this post, we will note: though it is an IDW1 fic with m-spec and f-spec bots, we build quite a bit of gender variety and relation into it that makes it readily apparent that Cybertron of old is even more different from human histories of such in that regard, we will spoil a little and say that we intend to show how of then aesthetics is remembered and remade into something new and old in the years after the end of the official story...
7. Sparkflung Trust (complete)
Written for a Transformers "fanthology" and also is a tie-in to the Autosignet Cycle original continuity we have been writing - along with a bit of IDW1, Cyberverse, and Alternity. A story about transformation in many senses (surprise), including a quest for the Transformation Matrix … inside of one of the most powerful creatures transformers have ever encountered. What will the errant people on the journey realize, and will it be enough to put into practice to succeed?
If you want to see the other standalone fics we’ve done, including ones about beloved Acid Storm and Overlord, go take a look at our Ao3 page! :3

I don't really find the idea that gender terminology will be obsolete in a utopia believable, in as much as many societies with gender equality or gender parity of power (including for gender expansive people in both instances including equivalents of transfemmes) have existed prior to colonialism and still try to exist. That patriarchies and empires make gender a political category is not in itself a contradiction to gender as a constructed contextualized aesthetic and a (gender) assemblage. Which, look, gender as under the aesthetic umbrella as a internally and externally contextualized social construct to try to put words to our singularities and NOT an ontological territorial exclusive rigid identity thing was something older transfemmes who teach gender theory gave us more detail and language on. Something like gender is part of the sapient condition (we know you aren't saying it's not you're saying we won't have words for it) and people having terms for that is something as old as time immemorial depending on the society. So like- why do we need to get rid of the term transfemme? Why would we cast out the overlap between xenogender stuff & alterhumanity and transfemininity? How would this hypothetical future look for systems who sometimes have to deal with multiple timeline sources or experiencing multiple realities?
We wholeheartedly agree with the abolition of every form of othering, which are ultimately based on some sort of bioessentialism or ethnocentrism or both, but we do not see how abolition of language we use for ourselves is useful. we do think that, eventually, the cisgender category won't apply to anyone anymore because nobody will be assigned genders anymore. probably not in our lifetime. we do personally also know as from studying gender linguistic history someone who figured out their own aesthetic system outside of and parallel to gender as a love letter to transness, transfemininity, and lesbianism primarily within the context of robots and plurality (but not solely) that if we had the spoons and stability would already have a finished book for that there will inevitably be far, far more new terms and understandings more commonly known hundreds of years from now or sooner assuming the status quo doesn't manage to continue itself that long (we don't think it can), and perhaps we will use the terms now less, but there will always be some sort of word that is at least comparable to some of the words we have now.
Part of the point of the original scifi writing (and our other writing too frankly) we labor over when we can is that- there probably will not be a permanent end to transphobia and transmisogyny or equivalents of it, sadly. as far we've been able to put together from a polisci and philosophy background and a lot more we don't have the energy to get into right now, cycles of material violence whether physical or structural or psychological are sapient species that are like us will have to deal with. Fear, myopia, greed, jealousy, dread, can all be driving forces of a new upheaval by attempting to create a hierarchy. We may get a reprieve for a (hopefully long) while where it's nearly nonexistent and is manageable, but it will come back- but here's the thing- no hierarchy, no empire, can ever rule forever, and as long as there is sapient life, we will always exist and try to put words to ourselves and make a better harmony, just as there is always a possibility for things to go wrong.
We do think there is a way to maximize the chances of being able to best reduce the cycles of violence, but that's something we don't have the energy to get into right now and would rather communicate in something we've labored over much more than a tumblr post when we have the chance to do that. We will just say this dance of life is worth it
Genuinely, the reason why so many discussions about transgenderism end up the way they do (in addition to the overt transmisogyny) is a complete unwillingness to view gender (and sexuality) as political categories, instead viewing them exclusively through the lens of "personal identity"
"Why do people use agab/tma? Is not the point of being trans to escape the shackles of your agab?" I cannot stress this enough but I am not the one doing the shackling, society has invented the shackles and I am using language to describe them and how they affect me
In a hypothetical future situation where society is no longer (trans)misogynistic and the patriarchy has been fully dismantled, these terms will have no real use. But it's important to recognize what is current actual material reality and what is simply idealism and hypotheticals
I would love to live in a world where tma vs tme is not a meaningful distinction. But that world doesn't exist (and also you are not helping make it so it does), and so those terms remain useful

Neopronouns in action: cy/cyb/cybryk, which will follow the same rules as it/its/itself for this example.
Replace it with cy
Replace its with cyb
Replace itself with cybryk
EX:
"It is going to adopt a new puppy soon, as soon as it gets a fence set up around its yard so the puppy can go outside without it having to walk it. Its uncle is going to help set up the fence, since he has a set of power tools he's letting it use, since it lost its."
Becomes:
"Cy is going to adopt a new puppy soon, as soon as cy gets a fence set up around cyb yard so the puppy can go outside without cy having to walk it. Cyb uncle is going to help set up the fence, since he has a set of power tools he's letting cy use, since cy lost cyb."
This is also a writing prompt! Go wild! And by "writing prompt" yes I do mean you can use this for an original story you intend to publish!
(can you tell I'm mad about ableism?)
= = = Indispensable===
“What do you remember?”
Those were the first words cy could ever remember being spoken to cy.
What did cy remember? “Nothing.” Nothing except...
Cyb pronouns. Cy knew cy was a “cy”, rather than an “ae” or a “they” or a “he” or a “she” or a “ze” or a “xey” or any other pronouns cy had ever heard anyone use.
Cy didn't know how cy'd lost cyb memories, or why other people could move around by themselves but cy couldn't, not until Sumac, the physician cy was most familiar with, explained it to cy after cy'd asked again. (Cy had already asked twice before, but cy hadn't been fully lucid during those times, so fell unconcious again before cy could hear the answer)
Sumac didn't really want to tell cy, not until cy was feeling better, but she said cy had a right to know, so she told cy the story.
Cy hadn't always been here. Not in this hospital, or this city, or this country, or this continent, not even this planet.
The planet was called GG047, the continent was Weavanim, the country was Part Six of Seventeen, the city was Krosgate, and the hospital was Weavani River Medican.
This star system, cy was told, was called the Xyvis system, had seventeen planets, and over five hundred moons. GG047 liself had five of those moons.
Cy was not from this planet, which was the closest one in the system to the central star, cy was from VT086, which was the fifth planet from the star. Cy wasn't a vi'an, like most of the physicians, like Sumac, cy was a drex, like the youngest physician, Ka'ri, and a few other staff members.
Cy had been sent here from VT086 by an extremist group known as Next Dawn, who believed that all life that hadn't evolved on VT086 was an affront to their god. Cy had been sent to Krosgate to assassinate the leader of the SP-FR Congo, an inter-species organization that encouraged friendly cultural exchange and education.
Before cy could become too shocked and horrified, it got worse. No, cy wasn't in trouble or going to be punished, because, and this was the part that made it worse, cy hadn't had any choice in the matter.
This was why Sumac hadn't wanted to tell cy until cy was more recovered. It was stress no one wanted to put on cy while cy was still sick.
New Dawn had kidnapped cy, drugged cy out of cyb mind, and brainwashed cy until cy could do nothing but follow the orders of the people who'd done this to cy. Cy had been a slave, with no control over cyb mind or body.
No one blamed cy for what cy had done under the affects of the control of the New Dawn slave masters.
The people who had fought to defend the leader of SP-FR had done their best to restrain cy without hurting cy, but none of them were experienced in combat, and hadn't realized how comparatively fragile drex cephalothoraxes were compared to the similar structures of vi'an or drerokai anatomy.
In an effort to pin cy down so cy couldn't hurt anyone else, they'd accidentally crushed cyb hydraulic system, so now cyb body couldn't pump the necessary fluid into cyb legs or pedipalps to move around by cybryk.
The hospital was working to have more drex physicians transferred in to help with cy treatment (which could include a number of additional mobility aids of different varieties and complexity, ranging from, at the most basic, a hoverchair designed specifically to fit cyb body, to, at the other end of the spectrum, a full replacement of all cyb affected limbs and organs with cybernetic prosthetics. It would all depend on what cy wanted to do. No matter what cy chose it would all be provided, free of consequences, and cy didn't have to do anything except sign the records of approval.)
There were other injuries the hospital was treating, not just from the attack itself, but from the conditioning and drugs cy had been subjected to prior to it.
One of the effects was memory loss, the first thing cy had noticed when cy regained consciousness for the first time. Cy knew cy'd used to have memories, and now they were gone. It wasn't like looking at a blank wall, it was like looking at a wall that you knew had once held a mural, but had now been knocked down and burned to ash. All that remained was the empty space, with no hint to what had been there before.
Another affect was cyb inability to sense pain. The combination of drugs had been crafted with the express purpose of, among other things, permanently overloading cyb ability to recognize pain signals. This, Sumac explained with heavy regret, came from the misguided idea (not helped by the many fictional stories across the entertainment styles that used the idea as a “quick and easy” way to make their villains seem extra scary and threatening) that not sensing pain would make you stronger and more durable, able to keep fighting no matter your injuries.
This was patently false on multiple levels, but, unfortunately, the people who were willing to enslave others and use them as tools didn't pay much mind to caring about them or even caring enough to check if their idea made any sense.
As evidenced by cyb destroyed hydraulic system, not feeling the pain didn't mean the damage didn't exist. Just because cy couldn't feel the pain from cyb hydraulic system being crushed didn't mean cy could jump or climb the way cy could have before the injury.
Just because cy couldn't feel the pain from the headaches cy got didn't mean cyb thinking didn't become clouded and sluggish.
Cy would probably never regain cyb memories, or the ability to feel pain. The drugs that had erased them had been too potent. Even if the hospital were able to contact any of cyb friends or family members, cy would never know for certain that what they said was the truth. Cy would always have to be careful to make sure cy wasn't injured without noticing. Cy would no longer be able to tell when cy needed to go inside to avoid damage from the sun until cy became light-headed, which was one of the last signs of xyvar-burn to occur. By the time you became light-headed, that meant it was already life-threatening.
Cy couldn't remember who cy'd been before cy woke up in cyb hospital room, on a strange planet surrounded by aliens cy could never remember meeting before.
Cy was going to be disabled for the rest of cyb life.
The people who had stopped cy from murdering the leader of the group could have killed cy, decided that cyb life wasn't worth saving, that cy was no longer worthy of any consideration or compassion, because cy had been “brainwashed” and drugged and enslaved.
But they hadn't. They hadn't even meant to hurt cy at all. No one had intended to damage cyb hydraulic system. They'd tried to stop cy without hurting cy, even though cy had been trying to kill them.
They'd cared about cy, they'd known it wasn't cyb fault or choice to be doing what cy'd been doing, and they'd done everything they could to stop cy without killing cy.
Cy was disabled, and would never be the person cy was before cy was kidnapped and poisoned and turned into a weapon.
But cy was alive, with cyb whole life ahead of cy, all because other people had chosen to care, and cy would be grateful to them for as long as cy lived.

one thing they don't tell you about 'make the stories you want to see in the world' but usually gets discussed at some point is how exhausting it is when you're 1 of maybe a handful to a dozen of people you know/know of doing that whether in fanfic or original fiction & everybody's trying to do what they need to besides that to live too. so to everybody who plays with alien robot gender in a way that draws on transness & wlw, we love you 💜🏳️‍⚧️

This is a complicated topic for which there is not a single simple answer. We will instead give a nuanced one:
-there is a reason for the rise of the modern distinguishment between sapphic and lesbian, wherein sapphics mostly prefer gals and gal adjacent folks and will date e.g. nonbinary people and only sometimes date men, whereas lesbians won't date people who are solely men.
-what do nonbinary people who only want to date women and off the binary people call themselves, if not lesbians?
-polygender and/or genderfluid people who experience multiple genders including being a gal and a guy at the same or different times are still gals, yknow. there's nothing wrong with them calling themselves lesbians.
-there is an often noted experience of heterosexual people dating someone and then they realize they're trans and their gender is different, so the het folks if still attracted and understanding themselves as otherwise het say 'my orientation is to [insert gender] and attraction to you.' speaking from experience, real life long term relationships between gender expansive people are complicated. the partner we dated the longest would sometimes ask us during the first year if we would dump them if they realized themselves as a trans man. we told them of course we wouldn't. is there anything wrong with a lesbian dating someone who figured out they're only a man later in the relationship? no.
-some trans men are not comfortable with the idea of being heterosexual, and frankly by their own accord are not. this isn't just talking about nonbinary trans men. This is also talking about lesbian as a gender or part of one. Orientation and gender or lacks thereof inform each other. This website by a transmasc person has a really good explanation of this, it's beautiful
-for some context, we are collectively a trans gal/xenogender-parallel (this is an oversimplication) plural system. Our eldest headmate is a t4t sapphic and thus is extremely unlikely to ever date a man who isn't transmasc or an equivalent or polygender and also comfortable being dated by a lesbian (ie cis men are off the table) and even if she wasn't t4t that would be the case... because well, a lot of our system is composed of sapphics and lesbians, and um, for some of us, the contexts we are used to are worlds and memories where the cisgender category or something like didn't exist in our societies, because gender/aesthetic neutral and aesthetically informed socialization was a big part of growing up for everyone (and thats not even getting into semi-deliberate body formation stuff in the first few weeks of life). sure not everyone's trans in those contexts but nobody is cis. the term we coined for the sake of our fanfic writing to get that across is launch while we work on original fiction. for the record we dont use human gender/aesthetic system models in any of our writing for aliens, they (including alien robots) either have elaborate alien gender systems in our more hard scifi orig cont and original fiction stuff have alien aesthetic systems with their own terms and pronoun variation if the latter exists which we personally enjoy (we do use a gender assemblage and trans theory lens to approach expressing these)- and as such all of these folks have words for same-aesthetic/same-gender attraction but they are not gay or lesbian etc. they have their own terms with their own histories and meanings. so a lot of us dont even fit the -straight -bisexual -lesbian -gay -pansexual discussion just as we don't fit a gender discussion but most certainly do have equivalents of genders that we've named and iterated and adore (hilariously we do fit the gray scale ace-aro stuff pretty well there's just a lot of add-ons) because ultimately in human terms a signifcant number of us are t4t and while as a system we can agree to the idea of dating a cis gal we have yet to do that. everyone we've dated out of system has been gender expansive, trans or no, or at the very least spent a significant portion of the relationship understanding themselves as not cis
-we find the tendency of cis guys to joking about and saying they want to date lesbians at best as something that makes us want to ask them 'so are you really just a cis guy' or 'do you know what sapphic means within the last 20 years' but often is rather alarming and gross -
-but for the cases that are not some misogyny power dynamic thing, where its from people not familiar with terminology who then are willing to learn and recognize that lesbians are not in their dating pool, we've noticed that it in part has to do with the perception of lesbians as a kind of gender variation of women that to them is beautiful. its the same sort of awe one can have for someone in drag / a drag king, queen, monarch, etc. and attraction even if one isn't going to date one.
-on that thought of lesbianism as a gender-orientation thing, we think sword lesbians and lumberjack lesbians are a great example of where the aesthetic experience of material and technique modification of self expressed through actions and words and frankly euphoria therein has a clear linkage between orientation and gender. the same goes for butch lesbians yknow, and we think that's fair to say of femmes and the whole lesbian-sapphic spectrum too! it's part of our history!
this is just what we have to say on it as people who have spent much of our life together learning about gender and orientation and power dynamics including in the context of history, war, politics, diplomacy, art, and philosophy in order to be epistemically free of the patriarchy and keep it from bringing us down, and to figure ourselves out and maybe share what we can with people along the way.
“we need more weird queers” you guys can barely handle nonbinary lesbians

Genregender Pride Flag
Tumblr media
Genregender: when your gender is related to certain genre(s) of writing in some way. Also an umbrella for any genric gender identity, such as fantagender and scifigender, literary subgender examples.
Similar to bookgender, it stands more for literature’s genres than music, film/television/movie and video game genres, since there are already terms for them, such as moviegender, showgender, musigender and gamegender. 
Not to be confused with gendergender. ~ap

ID: A banner similar to a DNI banner with Cham-P, a large hamster, and Maga-Z, an aggressive hamster with a tear in its left ear, both belonging to Gundham from Danganronpa. They both are on the left and break the border of the banner. The banner reads as follows: Do not respost onto flop/cringe accounts! It triggers my paranoia, and you are not immune to being reported to your website’s staff! “My paranoia” is implied to be referring to Mod Bede. End ID]

This will be a pinned post with links for mobile as well as a short intro.  To start things off, I’m Eren or Sionainn (pronounced the same as Shannon in English).  I’m 30 and a xenogender nonbinary and intersex pan aroace.
My pronouns are xey/xem/xyr/xyrs/xemself.  They’re used like they/them, so it’s “xey are” and not “xey is”. They/them is okay if you can’t use any of my other pronouns.  
My interests are scifi and fantasy roleplaying games, scifi and fantasy media in general, and natural sciences with a focus on geology and astrophysics.  Current interests or hyperfixations may change and I’ll try to keep this updated.  Once again back on my Vampire: The Masquerade bullshit. Someone please let me into a chronicle I'm sooo normal.
I’m an Irish-Italian American from the Midwest US.  I speak some French, but I’m learning to speak Irish and hope to be fluent someday.
Here is my about with more details.  I don’t have a “real” dni because I find them performative, here's a joke one, but I do have a reasons why I specifically will block page.  People under 18 can follow, though be warned I do reblog the occasional dirty joke, which will be tagged as “nsfw text”.  I tag common triggers, as well as “bare chest” for characters with visibly uncovered breasts for blacklisting purposes.
I have photophobia (light/brightness sensitivity) and bright images can cause migraines so mutuals please tag them if you can! I blacklist the tag “eyestrain”
Ok thanks for reading :) SlĂĄn!

technogender: encompasses any gender that is linked to technology
erroricine: a gender related to being an error or a glitch in a robotic/computer/ai sense. related to harsh neon reds/blues/greens and white. it’s cold, chaotic, brutal, and has no inherent alignment, but can be aligned.

Hello My Fellow Sleep Deprived Authors!
My name is Ardyn and I am new to the Writer side of Tumblr. I mainly write things like fan fictions on days where I need to cope with chronic fucking anxiety, but I also write my own literature. 
About Me
I am 17 Years Old
I am Genderfluid
My pronouns are he/they
I am a lesbian
I used to be an avid Kalvin Garrah stan. I personally believe that motherfucker contributed to my various mental illnesses and gender dysphoria. If you find my old Truscum Tumblr from when I was 12 and when I thought I was a cis lesbian, no you didn’t.  
I practice African American spirituality (hoodoo) and I also practice chaos and green witchcraft. I am also clairvoyant. 
My main genres are SciFi, Romance, and Fantasy.
I roleplay on Amino from time to time
I am black
I support Neopronouns. If we become moots and you have neo pronouns you want me to use, I will use them.
I also support Xenopronouns and Xenogenders. I don’t give a flying fuck what you identify as. I will not pop a rage boner if you want to be a cat and be referred to as meow/meowself. Thats yo fuckin business. 
I will write a few articles on social topics.
I still use my old Wattpad from when I was 12 to upload my new shit. If anything on there is posted before 2020, brace yourself.
I’m very insecure about my literature.
If you want to request any fanfictions right now, you must be a patron on my Patreon. 
I am a poet as well.
It takes me up to seven hours to fully write, edit, post, then promote my works. Thats why my tiers are $8-$15 on my patreon. 
I usually eat very little on days that I work.
I am just not getting my professional career started.
I upload new things to my Patreon everyday.
I am autistic
I am a wreck, but a productive wreck.
I write NSFW things as well.
I’ve been on this accursed site since I was 12.
My favorite video games are Minecraft, Skyrim, Oblivion, Subnautica, etc.
My favorite author is Brandon Sanderson (I like his books, not his crusty dusty ass though)
My favorite book is Skyward by Brandon Sanderson
My favorite book series is The Hunger Games (don’t dog on me, it may be a bit overrated but things are overrated for a reason)
My favorite TV show is Girl From Nowhere 
My favorite movie is Mulan (1998)
My favorite animes are Demon Slayer, Akame ga kill, and Parasyte.
My favorite anime character of all time, however is Sailor Jupiter.

Since my brain is straight up immune to caffeine bc of adhd, I can drink coffee whenever I want! Since I'm a REALLY fast reader and same thing with comprehension and vocab, it's super ez to research my hyperfixations and other stuff I find interesting! My hyperfixations are scene, space, aliens, ufos, alien tech, and scifi theories and bringing them to reality!
ig "wow look at this cool thing"?? And talking abt stuff tht we like! and doing rlly fun stuff!
Nobita from Doraemon has ADHD! Bc he literally is soooo adhd coded I cant-

Neopronouns in action: it/its/itself
EX:
"It is going to adopt a new puppy soon, as soon as it gets a fence set up around its yard so the puppy can go outside without it having to walk it. Its uncle is going to help set up the fence, since he has a set of power tools he's letting it use, since it lost its."
This is also a free writing prompt!
===
The Interworld Growing Club
It was the first human to join the transworld growing club, and it brought Sambucus canadensis, Diospyros virginiana, Prunus caroliniana, and Passiflora incarnata seedlings with it as the four traditional gifts.
Each new member brought with them four species native to their planet that weren’t already included in the collective. 
It wasn’t the first new member to join, or the only first of its species - on the same planetary cycle (defined by the system’s governing council as being forty-seven hours long), the first seyeir also joined, and zainun brought four species whose names the human couldn’t remember how to pronounce (and thus, remember) yet.
Most of the other members of the club had never met a human before, since they were still so new to having interstellar travel capabilities, so the pre-approved list of questions it was okay to ask almost got used up entirely.
How often did it need to sleep? What did it eat? How often did it need to eat? What did it drink? Did it eat the species it had brought with it? Were the species it had brought with it pets? Did it have any pets, and if it was safe, could they meet them? 
How long did it need to sleep? Was it telepathic? Did it have any disabilities among its species? Could it smell their pheromones? Could it see their colors? Did it know what dreams were? Did it dream? Did it remember its dreams? Was this its first time leaving Earth? How many planets had it gone to? How many space stations had it gone to?
What was the spaceship it had come here in called? What was its favorite color? What was its favorite sound? Did it have a favorite time? What was its favorite food?
How many genders did humans have? What was its gender? What were its pronouns? If it was attracted to any genders, what kinds of genders was it attracted to, and how?
Would it be interested in courting an alien? Did humans lay eggs? Did humans reproduce by budding? How did it get its name? Did it have any siblings or parents or friends?
How long could it stand? How much weight could it lift? Did it take any medicines? What should they do if it was injured and couldn’t help itself? What should they do if it stopped breathing?
How long could it survive in the vacuum of space? What should they do if it was exposed to the vacuum? What should they do if it got too hot? What should they do if it got too cold?
What kinds of foods could it eat? Would it show them how humans cooked and ate the species it was gifting to the collective?
The last question would take a while to come to fruition, because the seedlings it had brought with it were still very small, and wouldn’t produce fruit for anywhere from a few months to several years. And the Prunus caroliniana wasn’t edible for humans, but the on-station medical experts had concluded that the fruits would be edible for several of the other member species, which was why it had chosen it as one of the gift species. The other three were edible for humans, and for half a dozen member species, each.
Three other members were delighted that it used it/its pronouns, just like they did, though they each described their genders very differently than it did. 
Once the questions were done, it was led on a tour of the communal growing area, where, safely contained behind several layers of state-of-the-art forcefields, physical walls, airlocks, and other safeguards to prevent any escapes, all of the hundreds of species that had been gifted to the growing club were cultivated in a self-contained, self-sustaining, completely unique ecosystem.
Each new species was carefully integrated into the rest so that its outputs and inputs would work in a careful balance with the rest of the system, so that each species got what it needed, and gave what it didn’t. The species weren’t limited to what humans called plants, either, since most non-Earth species didn’t conform to anything that could easily be categorized within the normal Earth standards. What humans called plants, animals, and mushrooms were all involved, as well as hundreds of species human taxonomists hadn’t even begun to think about sorting.
The four species the human had brought with it would be given their place, once they were studied and understood by the club members who were most familiar with the system, and until then, they had much to teach the human, who was more than happy to learn, and ask its own questions.
