So. This has recently come to my attention. Here's my thoughts as an actor on the RTC debacle. This is copy/pasted and elaborated on from the "I am signing this because" comment I left on the petition. Note this take also extends to actors with invisible disabilities like Autism or ADHD, of which I am one, hi hello. It is nowhere near as hard to decently accommodate wheelchair-using and otherwise (potentially) disabled actors as folks would have you believe. I was recently in a production of The Wizard of Oz where one of my fellow ensemble members (who is a regular actor at said theater, he's in basically everything) was able to be accommodated for in both costume and blocking with relative ease. This is even accounting for quick-changes, because we did in fact have those! The most trouble I ever saw him have was that it took him a little bit longer than was ideal to get from one wing of the stage to the other through the passage behind the backdrops, but that was far from an uncommon experience for anyone in the cast since it was a fairly tight squeeze what with it being up against the wall at the back of the stage. If you've been in a small theater with this kind of passageway, you know the deal. The actor playing the Cowardly Lion had to leave the stage to vomit a good few times in the middle of a pretty intense dance number during dress rehearsals due to not processing the heat from her (not particularly bulky) costume combined with the stage lights well. I personally am not entirely sure what the full deal there was since, well... I'm not her doctor, but it was functionally making her physically unable to do the full dance number either way. Whether it was just momentarily disabling or was an actual full-on condition, instead of being whiny and shitty about it the folks in charge of the theater worked with her and eventually found a solution that worked so well that she was fine for the entire run of the show and didn't even have to sit down to catch her breath during said dance number. That solution was actually super simple- she worse a sleeveless sweater vest that'd been previously layered on top of another shirt and having an ice pack affixed to her back via some kind of strap-pouch-thing. Simple, easy, and as far as I could tell it didn't cost a cent. This was in a theater that was pretty old and needed renovations despite having already had renovations. I was freezing to death in the men's dressing room and the electrical outlets in the green room ranged for kinda bad to possibly something to actually worry about, but even then they were able to make sure that our physically disabled cast members were just as accommodated for as the physically abled ones. Any and all excuses that Arena Theater and McCarter could give are entirely invalid. It isn't hard to do the bare fucking minimum, ESPECIALLY in a fancy modern theater. @mccartertheatrecenter , DO BETTER. You write a character as physically disabled, cast a physically disabled actor, and then not only toss them to the curb when they have a quick medical complication that is easily resolved and a known symptom of their condition, but decide after that to make the physically disabled character ABLE-BODIED IN A REWRITE. This is not inclusivity. This is not helping. This is frankly a disgrace, and if I sound angry that's because I honestly am angry as well as disappointed. I'd heard about RTC and kinda wanted to see if I could catch a production of it. Now I won't. I know a bunch of other people- many of which have been long-time fans or have been positively impacted by the show in significant ways -won't be going to see it either because of this. The good news is that the only way to go from here's probably up, since this is some bottom-of-the-barrel stuff that's been pulled. Folks who care (or even just want to look like they care, I'm personally not picky), the link to sign a petition to try and help make stuff better is linked below. https://chng.it/PNTkLRkx5F

Ori is very excited to help his dad make some cookies!
"It won't taste good yet, buddy! Gotta bake it first."
Ori shoves a bite in his face before Adair can distract him. It isn't quite what he was expecting, but not entirely bad either!

What's one way your OC has changed since you first came up with them? For Akira
So, this will probably come as a surprise to some, but Akira was originally a lalafell! That's why she's named Akira Kirxaa, pronounced Akira Kirzaa. It was meant to mimic the Tataru Taru style of naming convention, but using the names of two old KH OC's I had, who were a heartless and nobody respectively (hence the X in the name).
It...doesn't really fit anymore so someday I'm going to have to give her a new last name lol. I've thought about having her take Dotharl as a last name since honestly it's the tribe she identifies with the most and admires for the way they accept death so easily.
Edit because I forgot to add that the fun part about naming her Akira Kirxaa is in my original canon for those Kingdom Hearts OCs(no the fic does not exist), Akira used a scythe and Kirxaa used a greatsword. I named them two years before DRK existed and WELL before RPR existed. So that was a fun coincidence.
