having good & true friends will literally save and protect you in a million unfathomable ways. like okay we have written so many times about lovers. but the way a platonic friend laughs and cries with you. the way they hold your hand at 14 years old and at 34. the way they keep a little silver tie to you, touching base over and over and over. how you can go years without talking, only to re-meet and discover: oh shit! you're still cool!

there are people who have been in my life for more than half of it, and i have loved every version of them. do you know how fucking beautiful that is. yeah love will save the world. but the way friends love you is gonna save the you.

it drives me bonkers the way people don't know how to read classic books in context anymore. i just read a review of the picture of dorian gray that said "it pains me that the homosexual subtext is just that, a subtext, rather than a fully explored part of the narrative." and now i fully want to put my head through a table. first of all, we are so lucky in the 21st century to have an entire category of books that are able to loudly and lovingly declare their queerness that we've become blind to the idea that queerness can exist in a different language than our contemporary mode of communication. second it IS a fully explored part of the narrative! dorian gray IS a textually queer story, even removed from the context of its writing. it's the story of toxic queer relationships and attraction and dangerous scandals and the intertwining of late 19th century "uranianism" and misogyny. second of all, i'm sorry that oscar wilde didn't include 15k words of graphic gay sex with ao3-style tags in his 1890 novel that was literally used to convict him of indecent behaviour. get well soon, i guess...

Separated Casey AU-

I used a lot of Mirage references for this - but Casey was taken and raised by the Krang. He was brought up by Glurin, named after an Utrom from Mirage:

He's a scientist inside the Technodrome and modified Casey with the Krang enhancements. He acts like Casey's dad and does show him affection. Though, it did give him a complex being known as a human risen above the others. Even if you remove the Krang he would still want humanity's end. At first, the Leader wanted him to be a mindless beast but Glurin convinced him that they could bring him up as a Krang and infiltrate human bases. I'll finish my Glurin's ref sometime...

Casey goes by Shadow (ow edgelord), because he followed the Leader around the Technodrome when he was little and the name stuck. Also another reference to Mirage; Shadow was Casey's daughter.

The Krangification is all internal to better hide himself. Ty for looking at my edge- BYE

Today’s outfit! I went as Dipper for Halloween 2018, so I already had the vest ready to go! Sadly, I don’t know what happened to the sock puppet Dipper I made in 2018 for my costume.
