You know, sometimes I see those cis people who are genuinely angry that they aren't "just" men or women, and part of me wants to go, "oh, I empathize with that impulse. I find that many people seem to remind me of my transness in order to both put me in my place, but also almost as a comforting way to pretend like a trans person could never have anything in common with 'normal' people. I find the distinction between trans and cis seems to primarily help cis people, so I can understand why you'd only want to be under the 'man' umbrella."

What do you think is the cut off age for immortal children? Bc Jane and Alec are like, 12, and theyre under control, but you can argue they get some leeway bc they're Aro's favorites... I just think a vampire child that's old enough to control themselves would probably be the closest Rosalie could get to adopting a child without fear of it dying, even if they also would never grow up. Someone out there could probably write something interesting about it. Bree was 15, wasnt she? I wonder what wouldve happened if the Volturi had let her live.
I'd say that 12/13 has to be the lower limit? I can't imagine anyone getting away with an immortal child much younger than that. Sure, you can teach 10-year-olds, 8-year-olds, etc, but they are still young enough that higher reasoning doesn't always work. Most people wouldn't leave them by themselves at that age. When I was 12/13 that's when I was able to enroll in a babysitting course and people would let me watch their kids; that seems like a decent litmus test for a kid that is 'old enough' to not be an immortal child.
But there's probably some wiggle room. I'm sure there are very responsible and mature 11-year-olds out there, and 14-year-olds you wouldn't let water your plants over a weekend let alone watch your children.
Jane and Alec are right on that line, IMO. And if someone other than Aro had created them, he very well might have used "oh no, immortal children" as an excuse to go after their creator and then 'mercifully' adopted the immortal children and 'trained' them, or whatever.
Bree is 15/16 and Benjamin is also 15; I think they are the youngest vampires after Jane and Alec. I don't know that Rosalie would be satisfied adopting a child that old, though, even if it's her only option, being that she's only 18 herself. My pet theory is that after the vampire world finds out about Renesmee there might be hybrid baby boom. But without the support Bella had, the human mothers probably aren't all going to make it and some of the vampire dads have second thoughts and Rosalie might get to adopt and raise a hybrid someday.

Celebi Saves Kubo AU, Ingo and Emmet decide to fuck with Elesa. They show up one day at her gym with Kubo holding their hands and introduce him are “their son.” Elesa is like what???
“Oh, well, we both have identical DNA, so we can’t tell which of us is his biological father. So he’s Our Son.”
Elesa fucking loses her mind because, 1, YOU TWO DID??? WHAT??? YOU FUCK??? SINCE WHEN.
and 2, YOU DID IT WITH THE SAME PERSON?!
Emmet just peppily says “language!” and then explains that they were just messing with her. Ingo is shaking because he’s trying so hard not to laugh at her in the face.
Kubo wishes to Not Be Here.

i think that dc creating wfa to tedt the waters with the idea of fandom support for bruce living with his kids and then going forward with a plotline where bruce finally lives with kids as the primary caretaker but it is only his biological son he lives with is like the stupidest decision they could possibly make

so I (finally) started Picard S3 tonight and I haven't seen any further than the first ep, but... I'm wondering if there's meant to be some juxtaposition between the emphasis on Beverly Crusher just cutting off/disappearing from the lives of the old Enterprise crew for 20 years and Seven of Nine doing what sounds like a very possibly similar thing with the Voyager crew

i need to get back into sketching more... i was looking through my sketchbooks from my first year of art school yesterday and there's so much stuff. a ton of d&d art, art of whatever i was obsessing over at the time, thumbnails, space filler doodles, observational sketches. i feel like these days i almost never draw anything without an end goal and in addition to being boring i think that makes my art worse
