She's babygirl

[jabberingdragon]

Its been a hot minute hasn't it? Oh well, better late than never I suppose.

So...While going through some major life changes, I also got into Final Fantasy.

Meet Eris, she is from Final Fantasy 16. She is the Dominant of Life and her Eikon is winged sea-serpent named Massana. Since all life originated in the oceans, it only seemed fitting to make her ocean-themed. As for why a serpent? Snakes were the symbol of healing in some cultures so...

With her powers of life, she can heal anyone, cure blight, heal and ease the pain of bearers suffering from petrification, and even revive the recently deceased. Eris was an unknown dominant due to her and her people living on a small group of islands in the middle of the ocean, far removed from the mainland. Her people were a blissfully unaware and hidden civilization, but became a lost civilization when Barnabas' army discovered her home, the existence of the Dominant of Life, and sought her power for subjugation. Eris escapes as Massana, but was heavily displaced and unable to find her way back.

Eris wears a lot of silks and soft material along with her prized possession: Her oversized gold shawl. Made for her by her people and endowed with healing magic, it can calm an anxious mind, tame any wrath, and soothe the sadness of any who wears it. The shawl is self-healing, therefore, cannot be destroyed. Eris keeps it on her at all times as her only memory she has left of her home and to keep her hair-trigger temper in check.

At first glance, Eris is a calm, gentle gal with a delicate touch and a inquisitive mind. She is excellent at cooking, baking, swimming, and the arts such as painting, drawing, and sculpting. However, Eris has a temper and is not shy in hiding it. Especially when she is not listened to the first time.

For example: If doing something annoying, she asks you to stop, and you do not listen to her the first time, she will explode at you.

Or if she warns against you wanting to do something dangerous, but you do it anyway and get hurt in the process, she will refuse to heal you and settle for giving you a harsh lecture for being a dumbass.

This is a healer you do not want to piss off.

LMAOOOOO My internet pal submitted this for my IRL friend since he did not have Tumblr. Best shit.

I was on a cruise ship and there were a bunch of people dressed in Squidward costumes all over the ship. They were dancing around and waving their hands in the air while singing “I WANNA BE, I WANNA BE, I WANNA BE SQUIDWARD!”

A 20 minute self-portrait sketch.

For about 8 years, I've had my hair cut short and ironed straight. I loved it that way, and it looked amazing on me. Recently I have been growing it out, and when I look in the mirror, at the tangled mess of waves and loose curls, I soon discovered I no longer crinkle my nose in disgust.

If I may confess: I kept my hair very short and very straight because I didn't want to look like my parent, whom I am unfortunately not on good terms with. Plus, it was the one thing I felt I had control of myself at the time when they had control over everything else.

But now? I see a different person, a beautiful person, whos been through a lot, who finally is accepting her hair, and its a huge leap for her. I could not be more proud of that woman in the mirror.

To help my acceptance further, I decided to draw myself with my hair in its natural state, and this self-portrait made me just love my hair and its wild, untamed waves even more.

Okay yeah, this is a corny post, but its very significant for me in my journey of healing from abuse, and I thought it was worth sharing. I hope for everyone else out there still struggling, you are able to find yourself in a safe place to begin to heal.

You've probably noticed this photo on my blog as a banner here and wondered "Gee, where did she get such a fabulous photo?"

Funny thing about that: I made it!

What you are looking at took well over a hundred tries and spending about 2 hours in total darkness to get right so if you look at this and think, "Oh! This looks pretty easy!"

Guess again.

The process to create the photo seen here involved a high ISO, a 30 second long shutter, and a very wide aperture/F-Stop, and then with 3 glowsticks in hand, tapping the camera button to open the shutter, then running out in front of the camera at a very specific spot and pose to write out the word, "FIRE" in the air, in cursive, backwards, before the shutter closes at 30 seconds. You cannot see how well you're writing, how lined up or severely askewed your light-path is until you check back to look at the photo once the shutter closes. Again, this took me over a hundred tries and 2 hours before I came up with a photo I liked. Then I took it into a photo-developing program called RawTherapee, a awesomely free alternative to Lightroom, and did some lighting and coloration adjustments to rid of some fuzz and help bring out some of the color that was otherwise looking pallid.

I plan to do more in the future.....when I'm not sick.

If you have anymore questions of how I did this, my inboxes are always open! Do not be shy! ❤🐉

Fighting For Freedom: Guardianship/Conservatorship Abuse Awareness Post

TL;DR- My mother got a Court Appointed Guardianship over me for 8 years that gave her full legal, choice of living arrangement, financial, program, schooling, transportation, job, and medical control over me because I have ASD. 4 years in, I saved my guardians life, nursed her back to health, then later discovered she abused her role; She purposefully stunted my adult growth and brainwashed me and others to believe I was incapable of adulthood due to my ASD and ADHD for her own benefit, isolated me from family, exploited me for government benefits, and misused my money for a psychic addiction. I escaped with all my pets, hired my own lawyer, challenged the Guardianship in court, and finally got my freedom on February 14th, 2023. 

Rarely do I ever post anything serious, much less about my life, but this is very important and deserves to be known.

In this post, I have attached a link to a google doc telling my story because frankly, it's rather long, and it's 4 years' worth of growth, awakening, and fighting for freedom. There are trigger warnings listed at the very top of the google doc for my fellow readers who may find the content disturbing. I will also share with you tips and tricks to keep your cool and gray rock, and advice to you on how to safely flee your situation and have a fighting chance to set yourself free legally if you feel you may be a victim of this type of abuse as well. If you have questions you’re always free to PM me. I am an open book and happy to answer anything and give advice to anyone who may need it that I have not covered here.

To get a few things out of the way, I first want to say that this is going to be a very, very, very long recount. Because of this, I included the TL;DR on top for anyone out there who can’t handle reading the full story due to the trigger warnings.

Secondly, but more importantly, I want to address the fact that this is an Awareness Post: Like any awareness post that is floating around in tumblr, I definitely would appreciate this to be reblogged. No doubt, this type of abuse is never talked about enough, and its time it becomes more well known, especially if there are others who suffered the same events I went through.

HOWEVER, I will not put any pressure on anybody to reblog or read the whole post if they are not comfortable. Too often I see Awareness Posts putting the heat on readers to reblog for the sake of advocacy or activism, and apply a guilt-trip on readers to make them feel like they’re awful people if they choose to ignore, or not reblog a post. I, as the survivor of the abuse I am about to highlight in my recount, refuse to take on such an approach to get my message out here. I consider that Toxic Advocacy and behaving in such a divisive manner will only harm my cause, not help it. With that being said, if you do not feel comfortable reblogging this or reading further, please absolve yourself of the guilt, dear reader. I completely understand, and you are in no way a bad or uncaring person in my eyes. Thank you very much for your time, and have yourself a lovely day/night. Remember to drink your water. ❤️

For the readers who are still here with me and are especially reading further for advice, help, to be educated, or just to read my story, buckle up, this is going to be quite the ride.
