#oops i messed up and reblogged on my main but #im glad I got the info out!

(For context of why I’m posting this link, please read the following)

Hello to everybody still following this blog!

It’s been a while, hasn’t it? I regret that I left one day without really saying why or even announcing that I was going to take an indefinite hiatus.

I’m back today because I want to tell you all why I left in the first place. I found this topic was incredibly hard to broach, even when I was still somewhat active here, so I haven’t really said a word about it till now as I’m feeling ready to speak.

Before you read further, know that I’m about to talk about how I was a minor in a romantic relationship with adult. If that is at all a triggering topic, please take care.

In fall 2019, I broke up with my at the time fiance; a Once-ler fandom member going by the screen name Yoyo-illuser. It was at that time that I was coming to terms with the fact that our relationship had always had an extremely unhealthy power imbalance, as I was 16 years old when Yoyo, at the time 26, reciprocated the crush that I had on her and we entered a romantic relationship. I was also coming to terms with the fact that in all those years she never took any responsibility to end the relationship herself and had generally mistreated me in ways she never worked to correct.

Because this relationship spanned 7 years, I have a lot of details to cover. So the document I’ve linked here provides me the space to explain and provide evidence of what my ex has done and what transpired between us.

There are content warnings posted at the start of this document:

Please do take care of yourself if at any point reading this becomes uncomfortable.

I just felt I had to speak out about this because silence doesn’t really change anything. If she’s still in the fandom and she still hasn’t improved, I fear for anybody else in a similar position to me when I was 16 and anyone in a vulnerable place for that matter.

This fandom is and always will be a minor dominated space and it’s up to adults in the fandom to ensure that other adults are not assaulting or exploiting minors or generally doing any creepy sh*t and call this behavior out when they see it.

I also hope that although it should never be solely up to minors to protect themselves from adults that there is more understanding these days that there is NO exception to an adult taking interest in them, even if it is solely romantic and that they will know the signs.

What I didn’t understand at 16 was how much age DOES matter. No matter how much you have in common with an adult, they are in a different stage of life and there will always be an unbalanced power dynamic in the relationship that favors the adult and gives them the power to exploit you and take advantage of your lack of development, lack of experience and the trust they earn from you.

I had to learn this the hard way. So I’m sharing what I’ve experienced now in hopes that people can learn from this.

We all want more Once-ler, don’t we? And I’m here to provide...

Over the years I’ve seen an assortment of rlly inventive 1971/1972 flavored Once-lers that have most everything but their arms (and possibly legs) obscured so I wanted to take a crack at it too!!

Here are some design details!

He lurks in his lerkim....cold under the roof....and usually keeps his body huddled up under his coat. He pokes hes arms through the front rather than the sleeves because it’s easier for him to hug his arms to his chest and keep warm.

In the books it’s said that he knits himself clothes out of miff muffled moof and I always thought of that stuff being kinda like...dust bunnies...like it’s stuff that just accumulates in that top floor of his shop and probably has some truffula fibre in it...and that’s what his pants are made of! That’s why he’s sticking his leggy out because he’s showing off the moof pants he knitted!

Even though I designed him off details of the canon Once-ler and he isn’t really his own character, I’ve taken to calling him Moof-ler....just to make the distinction.

It’s been a while since I used colours! These drawings were done for a Beach AU rp scene in the hidden garden behind the resort hotel, in which the Cat in the Hat Kyubey pops out of a meteorite and offers Audrey a contract to become a magical girl. The flowers here are hibiscuses and forget-me-nots, and yes those are knives in the flower bush.

The rp will eventually be archived over here: https://lastdayatthebeach.tumblr.com/

So. how does one get into this line of work?

Well, first you run a HIGHLY successful company…

…right into the ground.

Then you move to a town where no one knows who you are and spend ten years doing whatever you can to get out of debt, and when this guy tells you, “Hey! I’m retiring and I’m looking for someone to buy my used car lot. You interested? It’s a very lucrative business!” well you just faLL FOR IT LIKE AN IDIOT–

#I lov this man #this is a very good blog JLKSdgjklds #chrys-ler #it's too early to say this but MERRY CRISIS #thats just what popped into my head cause i presume the double meaning of his name is CRISIS

[anotherler]

Haa… ha ha…. .. hm? 

….. w-what are, what do you mean? Y-you’re so, so tricky today. I, I suppose it’s been a long time now, but we… we talked, it hasn’t been since the…. the beginning. Unless you mean, of the end, in which case y-yeah… how many years has it - 

…… …… “dash”….?

…. w-wait a - wait a sec - 

….. …… t-they’re…. they ……. oh my g-god. 

It’s not a trick? Is it, it’s not just, oh - oh my - 

- y-you better not be - HA!! It’s, it’s – really?! 

…..d-dear, we have - we have guests! 

#I haven't said it yet though it's a given but I am LOVING the artwork!!! I love the flowiness of his scarf...these panels are lovely #lqler #its also neat how with his one I open I see the shine on his glasses obscuring his other eye #oh and commentary... #He really sounds like he's talking to HQ but you know at this point and at any point it's hard to say that he is talking to HQ cause #he really is talking to himself...and now especially it's even more ambiguous #but the biggest hint is I think he's referring to the event where he and HQ first spoke #his last line there...it's interesting in many ways #Like it sounds like something he'd say if he was indoors...but he really seems to be outside. The use of dear is like he's living a domestic #life with somebody else like some people just came to his door and he called out to someone inside to let them know someone is visiting #JKLGDs I just keep getting deeper #LQ is kind of always inside even if he's out. He's inside the frame of a monitor

[anotherler]

….are we - are we sleeping? Ha…. ha ha! Haha ha ha!! HA!!

…. ah ha ha… oh, uhm. 

Don’t know, to be… to be honest, dear. To be…. we don’t know. Are we? Oh, how do… how do you know you’re not, ever? We haven’t slept in such a long time, or maybe we’re always asleep, maybe we’ve never woken up. 

I believe those are called… nightmares, you know! 

Haaaa…. ha ha ha….

#lqler #gosh I missed the deep thoughts of LQ...... #its also just become clearer who this dialogue is happening between...and it's very interesting #dreams and the inability to tell dreams from reality when you're dreaming them....that's a tough call there. #even harder to tell when he's all on his own because nobody is really there to ground things

[anotherler]

How bad me b

#this I love I absolutely love #beautiful stuff #those gloves are powerful #the onceler

[anotherler]

…. o-oh! Oh, sorry. I f-forgot I had them closed, uhm. Sorry. 

It… it bothers, to h-have them just open, w-when it’s just me! 

C-can you see alright? I t-think our left… wait, no. Our right one is working better… at the moment. Hmm… yeah, right. 

Let me know, uh. When you’re done looking?

…… ….. …. ha! Ha!

….. y-you certainly sound, ah. What’s the word? …. tricky? You sound rather tricky today. Did… did we do something… ? D-don’t remember…. 

#OH MAN HIS EYE.... #when its just him..........what does it mean #im gonna be puzzling over this for a while but already....... #already im noticing a lot of things... #im as hooked as ever OOOOoh #LQler

[anotherler]

…. ha! Was wondering… how long it would take you to, to join in. 

No, a-as you said, there’s no one, no one out here in field H. Or, or is this field L? Y-you would know better than… than I would, after all. I’m just… so forgetful, sometimes, a-as you know.

Ha! Ha…. 

As they have been…. for quite some time now, they are empty.  It’s… it’s just us here. 

…. b-but then again, has it ever not been? J-just us, here? Even when we were locked up, for so, so, so long… wasn’t it always just us? 

Wasn’t it….. ?

#LQler #HOOOO THE THINGS HE'S SAYING I LIKE WHERE THIS IS GOINGgg #I already have a lot of speculations~ #this is gorgeous too...godd I missed all the static and I love how his scarf is flowing...

[anotherler]

DONT FORGET: You’re here forever_

#thank goodness for that #greedlr #*blows this robot a kiss*

[anotherler]

….. there really is…. no escaping this desolation, huh? 

It hangs around us… in the air, in the clouds, in the grass and dirt…. more than being alone, even - desolation. All-encompasing loneliness…. 

Perhaps that was our curse in the end? More than the destruction of resources, of our health and hands, of our life… the destruction of connection. 

If only….. ….. …..
