#arent i a special little one

[fatuismooches]

its like... late and i need to dump all the little angst scenarios i think of in my dumb little head (i didnt include all of the harbingers because i didnt have ideas for all of them... sob sniff) (i need someone you understand and u are the #1 fatui lover in my heart)

After the funeral of the readers beloved, the tsaritsa never know that the readers tears were harsher than her blizzards (this sounds so corny but it's late plea)

The reader begging their harbinger s/o not to go on a mission in the nation the traveler is at because they're so paranoid that they'll end up in a coffin as well. (this could work in the same universe as the previous one) (Oh No .)

Dottore's lover feeling inadequate to his intelligence, so they end up staying up until ungodly hours studying and Dottore doesn't notice due to his lack of a need for sleep, causing them to collapse due to exhaustion while helping Dottore with his experiments

Columbina's lover practicing so hard for a duet they're supposed to perform that they end up losing their voice the day before the performance

Capitano's lover growing frustrated yet feeling selfish at him treating them like glass. They know it's because he's being overly weary of his strength, but they'd rather be crushed in a hug than treated like a porcelain doll that'll crack at the slightest gust of wind (it took me, way too hard to spell porcelain it was humiliating .)

Back to the handmade gift darling for pantalone.. Pantalone's darling who feels so frustrated because they know their gifts will never amount to the beautiful accessories he can just buy, unable to realize it's the love behind them that Pantalone cherishes

La Signora's lover wanting to be someone she can rely on, but it's early in the relationship and her heart has not yet melted for the reader. The reader wonders if it's their fault, not knowing La Signora just doesn't know how to deal with pure hearted love again.

Scaramouche's lover being mistaken for a caretaker because of the height difference /JOKING ILL BE SERIOUS

Scaramouche's lover often feeling themselves get closer to succumbing to their mortality. It's the little things, but it makes them oh so paranoid.. They've done everything to try to stop it, hell they even went to The Doctor about it against Scaramouche's wishes, but there's nothing that isn't.. inhumane that can happen. If they take the offer is up to you to decide <3

(cw; vomit) Arlecchino's lover who is a performer, who gets so nervous and paranoid about messing up that they end up vomiting backstage, causing the performance to have to take an emergency intermission/delay depending on how large the role the reader was playing. (I don't think she'd know immediately? i think she'd have to hear some like, other actors gossiping about it to realize)

- 🎈 is going insane

🎈 ANON WHO HURT YOU..........

Though only Harbingers were allowed to be at the funeral for another Harbinger, out of courtesy, you were allowed to be there as well. Did you care about the looks you were getting from the others? No. All you could see was your beloved's coffin that they should not be in. They should be by your side, still in this world. But they weren't and would never be ever again. Should you have tried harder to convince them not to go? You should have accompanied them at the very least. Maybe you could have protected them somehow. But no one can turn back time. (We know reader is gonna be on the Traveler's ass from then on... they are NOT safe. Reader gets a personal apology and head pat from the Tsaritsa though... she knows what they're going through.)

STOP THE DOTTORE ONE ACTUALLY HIT ME CUZ THAT'S SOMETHING I'D PROBABLY DO 😭💔 It was so hard sometimes, always comparing yourself to him, not to mention, you knew other people looked down on you because surely there was no someone like you could ever compare to the intelligence of the Doctor? And well, they were probably right, but that didn't make it hurt any less :( Yet no matter how much you tried you always felt inferior to his brilliance, and in fact only managed to hinder him more with your lack of performance.

You were so scared about not being able to live up to Columbina's voice, that you'd only mess up and thus damage her reputation and embarrass the both of you to all of Snezhnaya. You could not bear for that to happen and forced yourself to practice even more by yourself without Bina knowing. She is far more upset by the fact you hurt yourself rather than the performance :( (But she will have to call up Dottore for a quick remedy dw)

CAPITANO 😭😭 It bothered you a little bit at first, but you thought as the relationship moved on he would too, and he would realize that you're not as weak as he thinks, and he should have more faith in himself! You're wrong. It's been months and he's still scared to even do the basics of affection. And it's driving you crazy. You just want your husband... to *be* your husband! You want to hug him and be picked up bridal style and be carried and all of the sort! You're going to have to have a serious talk with him and hopefully Capitano will understand before he loses his spouse 🚶‍♀️

breaking down at Pantalone's... 🎈 ANON ARE U OK. You loved making handmade gifts for your beloved but you couldn't help but compare them to others. How could your little trinkets ever hold up to the expensive and professionally made ones? Yours were practically nothing to them, there was no real value in them and were easily discarded. You start to get a bit embarrassed by them and stop making it, to which Pantalone is confused. (Little do you know Pantalone much more cares for the sentimental value of your gifts, the fact that you pour so much time, energy, and most importantly love, into it, warms his heart far more than you'd ever know.)

SIGNORA MY BABY NO. She hasn't been vulnerable in so long, to the point where she doesn't even know how to open herself up again, especially in a romantic manner. She loves you, she really does, but she simply cannot give herself to you completely yet. It's a long, enduring process... one that you would absolutely wait for no matter the duration. Unfortunately, the communication skills are not the best as Signora doesn't know how to convey this to you nor do you know how to bring it up.

HELP SCARAAAA 😭 If you're taller than him then he'll definitely always be salty about it 💀 But ahem. Moving onto the angst. You are literally so big brained because I kind of wrote something like this for a Scara fic but scraped it but!! YES!! I imagine after reader hears Scara's backstory, all the people he has lost and was "betrayed" by, they would never want to put him through that kind of suffering and pain ever again. You do not want to be another "betrayal" in his life. And who else knows the answer to immortality, a longer life, better than the Doctor he's been working with...? The scientist promises that it won't hurt... not too much at least. He'll see what he can do... with some compromises in return.

You always loved performing, but even you got the jitters. Sometimes. Well, most of the time actually. And it was even worse when you knew your lover would be watching. You were terrified of messing up, to not living up to her high standards. You could handle criticism but thinking of the possible sharp and harsh words Arlie could give you made you sick with worry and fear. Unbeknownst to Arlecchino, she had no idea you were so caught up with what other people thought.

Not you giving me mega brainrot,,, these will permanently be etched into my tiny little brain

#smooches talks #🎈 anon #💔 <- my heart rn #harbingers love notes <3 #BUT OMG?? IM THE NO 1. FATUI LOVER TO U?? 😭ILY ANON❤️ #me personally id be a little scared for them but also excited for stories of them causing chaos (dottore specially) #no bc i completely understand reader in pantalones too... sometimes im scared my handmade gifts arent as good as money bought ones too #me unfortunately is hella short so scara would be prolly making fun of me as well😭

hey, what happened to the left believing in second chances? what happened to the belief that if somebody's tangibly doing better, they deserve that chance? you guys realise how common problematic beliefs were when the internet was younger? like, when gamergate was a thing? not that long ago? you guys realise most people on the internet are not from the same moral background as you? you guys realise keeping people out who have changed their beliefs, is only going to discourage more people from doing better? are you guys crazy? why are y'all bringing moral purity into this? it's a powerful thing to recognise things you've been taught were wrong & to then move away from it, especially when you're in a community around it either irl or online. being in a community is such a powerful force in most people's lives. not everyone had the perfect background & not everyone had access to being as educated on social issues as you did. it's fine to personally not forgive someone's problematic history & not interact with them, but to actively exclude them from the cause? get off your high horse, you're harming the movement by gatekeeping it to those with a perfect moral background.

#this is in response to a post i saw on here a while ago #“how do u even fall into those beliefs to begin with!!!” some people are raised by very shitty people next #yknow grifters who spread misinfo arent just talking into the void. they target a demographic that is ill-informed #idk i grew up in a household that never quite grew out of the cold war & when i was introduced to the internet when i was little #i was groomed by someone on the right & though i didn't hold any explicitly racist or homophobic beliefs or anything (mixed family household #& queer myself) #i was still problematic & stupid! #i know my Capitalist Era™ ended when i was 13-14 & that's Young but idk a lotta people believe the wrong things bcs they're stupid #or never questioned influences growing up before it spirals out of control #if someone shows genuine change they deserve a chance. the very system we live in is one that tries to convince ppl it works & to keep ppl #from knowing its crimes. so yea if it's working as intended a lotta people aren't gonna have Flawless beliefs i'm sorry #i feel like a lotta people who'll just exclude anyone from the left if they have a problematic history they've grown from are younger & need #to work thru their own special kind of puritanism #you don't have to like someone but you're helping Nobody by excluding those who've changed & tryna rile up ppl against them

i am so apathetic to popular male transformers characters, but i have a simple trick to make me care abt them: i turn them into robot women then i suddenly start seeing their appeal

#grimlock would be so awesome as a butch woman. DO YOU HEAR ME DOES ANYBODY HEAR ME HELLOOOO #also crazy in depth conversation i had abt this made me think abt why i get rlly. apathetic abt popular tf characters #esp when i realize all the popular characters im Whatever abt are all men #but i always have interest in the female ones and also the niche little weird guys #you are looking at rare scrounge fan. rare wheelie fan. and Number 1 Fan of Blurr* #*when hes a dorky weird anxious guy. yknow the ones ppl dont care abt bc hes “annoying” and “ugly” #i dont give as much of a shit abt the handsome cocky racer blurrs #i realize. because tf fandom has a weird thing abt only caring abt how attractive a character is #and tends to gravitate to male characters for that aspect #like lets be real here. there is such a high priority in this fandom for what characters look best in porn. im right. #and ppl love the yaoi robots for that. #and i. am on the aroace spectrum. and do not find as much attraction in men (though i do sometimes. just less so) #so this doesnt appeal to me #so i find myself so incredibly apathetic or a hater to a lot of the tf fandom bc of this #in turn i do not care so much for the popular characters or straight up see them as red flags (admittedly im a bit irrational for this tho) #a lot of times i get a feeling like “ok whats so special abt this guy. its just another conventionally attractive man" it feels boring to m #so that might explain why i become more interested in these characters if they arent men #this is all being said from a nonbinary person that leans more transmasc btw. just noting that. #rando thoughtz

What kind of vices do you think Helia has?

OUGH i love talking about the many problems he has <333

Here are some of his canon vices!

Very self-deprecating - It gets better later on and especially as Flora hypes him up, but Helia tends to think of himself and his actions in a very negative way and doesn't do much to challenge that narrative. He unconsciously relies on the others to make himself feel better a lot!

Self-critical - A thing that can be good in moderation, but like all vices, Helia takes it too far. He's overly observant and critical of himself to the point where it's like he's playing the observer all the time. He then gets anxious and convinces himself he's a horrible person cause he made One mistake. Way to go dude

Escapist - He has a hard time sticking around once he's convinced himself that people would be better off without him.

On a similar note, avoiding conflict. It may not seem obvious since Helia occasionally calls out the others, but that only happens when he's genuinely not in the wrong (or doesn't feel in the wrong). If something happens that he thinks he caused or was involved in, he tends to avoid that conflict and fallout.

And if I'm being honest, avoidance in general. Again, it's one of those things that gets missed easily, but that sort of mysteriousness/shyness that people often see in Helia? That's usually avoidance from him! He avoids talking to people unless they speak to him first, he avoids telling people about himself or his life, he'll outright ignore people if he doesn't like them, etcetc. There are times when it's for a good reason (not talking to the trix for example) and times when it's incredibly annoying and counterproductive (like with the specialists or flora). It should be noted that this behavior mostly shows up in his personal life rather than on missions but if anything, I think that shows he's aware of this but doesn't change it.

Impulsive - Again, it may not seem like it but Helia is very impulsive! A lot of the decisions he makes throughout canon are done in the moment and with very little thinking. It's easy to miss because Helia is a fast thinker and quick on his feet so his actions often seem more planned out than they actually are, but if you look at the individual actions themselves and how quick he makes them after Just thinking of them, it gets really obvious. In the show, I'd say the best and most well-known example would be in his introduction episode, aka the monster stunt. Again, it's easy to miss, but that wasn't planning or cautious thinking from him, that was full on impulsivity (both grabbing the monster And leaving). Other good examples would be the Shaab Stone arc in the comics (literally an entire arc of Helia being impulsive as hell), the s2 florelia kiss scene, Helia saving Sky in s2 when they're in Darkar's Fortress, and him running up to every enemy.

I'm not sure what you would call this, maybe recklessness?, but Helia often has very little regard for his own safety. He regularly puts himself into dangerous situations that he doesn't Need to be in without thinking about how badly it's gonna hurt him. Well,,, he does think about whether or not it'll kill him, but if the answer is "no", then it doesn't matter how much danger he's in, he's gonna do it. This often ends with one of the specialists yelling at him which is funny but Still. I do think it's important to note that he's not reckless with the other's safety (he's overly cautious with them) but he definitely is with his own.

I feel like there are others I Could list but they don't show up quite enough for me to call them his vices (ie the occasional stubbornness, lack of confidence, or jealousy). I HOPE YOU ENJOY THIS LIST OF HIS MENTAL ANGUISHES I KNOW I DO

#i LOVE talking about the negative qualities of characters #i could especially do this all day long for the winx characters #they're just so !! #helia is also my special little blorbo so i love seeing people recognize his faults <3 #it makes me so sad when i see people think he's perfect or has no problems in canon :( #just cause they dont show up much doesnt mean they arent there :') #answered #winx helia #like all of the specialists have so many negative traits but i feel like people only ever talk about sky or riven #and yknow for good reason because they're really interesting and riven especially is really fun for getting past them and bettering himself #but because of that people often forget that the others have issues too! even brandon!! #i feel like people are Constantly forgetting how self sacrificing brandon is despite that being a major component of his character #people usually recognize timmy's confidence issues but how often do we talk about his anxiety or self cautious behavior #or his self neglect!! that one is SO juicy!! #and of course mr everyone thinks he's perfect helia 😞 he gets no bitches frfr 😞 #nabu has problems too 😞 #OH its like that one meme #fandom: sky riven do you want to talk about your problems? specialists: we have problems #fandom: we know. specialists: we want to talk about our problems. fandom: we know #LAJDHFLADHGJ

I know "persona fans haven't played persona" is a meme & true often, but it irks me the wrong way when people use it to make fun of fans who watched YT walkthoughts, like do they know that not everyone has the money for consoles (and even if they do, buying a whole console just for a few games isn't wise for most ppl) :\

Persona games are like 80% text, isnt like the story or character arcs will change becase youre the one pressing A. You arent missing too much, plus the games are like 40% of the experience, you need the manga, anime, cd dramas, stages, novels & club/fan books to get the full grasp of the characters and the story.

For other games where the fun comes from the gameplay (fighting games, mario kart and such) of course you have to play them, but for VNs I dont think its a sin honestly. At least they're trying to see everything by themselves rather than making assumptions from fan interpretations & wiki pages (too many of these ppl around there.......)

(for P2 though, you have to play it yourself because the amount of story-related dialogue tucked away in store convos is insane, I dont trust any lp to show them all, but for the others its ok imo)

#specially since sony consoles are Expensive #i have never had one because we couldnt affort it #& we arent any better now; but at least i can give #myself little treats now thanks to a small scholarship #i got 2 years ago; but €550 is too much for me #& yes amulation is a thing (and how I was able to get #into persona; thanks to phone ppsspp) but not everyone has #a laptop/computer for themselves #+ not all of them can run the games (my laptop can barely #run ps2 emus) #i feel these people are too much on their bubble of computer #gaming or whatever and always are ''any pc can run this!!'' #but forget that not everyone is from the us #& all some of us have is a budget laptop from a decade ago

just taking hit after hit today (my friend canceled the dinner we were gonna have on my birthday so now it's just. work.)

#i know that this is adulthood alright i know birthdays arent special anymore #but it stings a little #i have the least amount of friends out of anyone in my life #and the more i realize that the more it stings #and i'm distant from all of them #and now no one wants to come to my birthday #like i'm fucking. eight and throwing a party again #it just sucks #vent post

what I like about 7s is you can tell when they are fuckboys unless you have a room temperature IQ. maybe it is a natural talent that only I have (I really doubt this but I dont wanna insult ppl who've been victimized by 7 fuckboys). however it is just so obvious to me when a 7 dude is a fuckboy trying to taste all his options vs. when he is ripe and ready for commitment. the way that 7s show you bluntly when they are bored with you by ignoring you or only responding with one liners is actually a good thing. I find 7s to be very transparent, very obvious about what they want from you even if they don't directly communicate it with words. they are not capable of leading me on because they never give me the impression that they think I'm special in the first place. they never immerse themselves in my world and make me feel special because they're too preoccupied with their own.

meanwhile other types of men cough cough withdrawns are confusing as hell to the point it feels like manipulation and deception. they can larp like they are all innocent when they are the world's biggest fuckboys. they become deeply connected to you as a friend, they show you that they have a crush on you that they are too scared to act on, and they act like they're ready for exclusivity to get you into bed when often they are not. with words and with showing a genuine interest in your world, they make you think you are extremely special to them, yet many of their actions (or lack thereof) imply that you are not.

no one talks about how 7s with the 1 line can grow up and develop an intense dutifulness towards relationships. the meme is that 7s struggle with commitment but in my experience it really depends on the 7 in question. relational commitment issues are a lot more complicated than "lol 7". any type can have them and its usually rooted in trauma or plain old spiritual weakness.

see my tags for more

#7s struggle with committment towards a lot of things but relationships arent necessarily one of them #i see it like its a bar #in a video game #and the 7 bar for “things you struggle to commit to” is SUPER BIG #but many 7s consume that struggle to commit on non relationship things #like their job their work ethic their dreams their good habits (they dont commit to these things) #7s also have a capacity to commit which is small #but they can develop it to be bigger over time #and many choose to spend the little capacity for commitment they do have on relationships #anyways a problem is that 7s can lack the ability to make you feel special because they dont like going too deep emotionally #ive had this problem with my bf and been like “im leaving” but then he was always like noo stay #and i was like well thats the first time anyones wanted me to stay #all these withdrawn dudes made me feel like a princess but it turned out to be shallow words & platitudes because they didnt want to persis #actions are all that really matters and this is what assertive types understand that withdrawns dont #the tradeoff is that assertives are insensitive fucktards who make you feel like theyre always thinking about something better than you #assertives literally never have time for you. even if theyre sitting inside scrolling thru phone all day. its a psychological thing #their thing is always better... more worthy of attention than your thing. #intimacy is difficult with an assertive type. regardless of what your type is #3s and 8s guilty of this as well #im sure ive made my partners in the past feel this way... like theyre unimportant and im always thinking of better things #and i make my bf feel this way sometimes too #he complains #as do I #lmao

I tried to type the word lives but accidentally said loves and then it autocorrected to lobes. What.

#fighting for their lobes #im oc brained again. ive decided that everyone is boring and im terrible #except for my special little girl. my self insert . my silly... my skrunkle... #but then what does it say about me if im incapable of creating characters who arent exactly like me. grahhh. #i dont have enough life experience... ... ... .... #most of the characters i like arent that much like me probably. like #idk. finn and jake and pb? i hate science and im not a little adventure boy sooo. its not that i dont have the capacity to like characters #who i dont 100% relate to. im just bad at thinking them up. yeah... #idk #all of my story ideas have turned into Not even anythint befquse im always like 'no that sucks i need to change it' #& the only one i consistently like is ironically somehow the one set in highschool even though thats so boring #and even thst doesnt have a plot #its just like 'girl gets invisibility powers and then meets this other girl & they do Espionage at another school in the area #not the one they go to. a different one. because theres some kind of conspiracy I Guess (dontknow what it is. no plot.) #and then theres another girl and shes like top student high achiever kind of uptight. and shes involved in clubs or something like that so #maybe one of her parents is a teacher or something idk. so shes there after school hours #and she gets roped into it somehow idk........ no plot!!! like the smallest weensiest little Start of a plot but no actual plot #ahhhhghhhhhhhhhhhhh. ahhhghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Sometimes I don't understand this Winx fan's mania of wanting to redesign everything Winx, the characters... even the planets. I understand that each one can have their own headcanon, but there are already incredible designs in the animated series!!! You just have to expand them!!! Don't redesign them to suit your personal taste!!

Sometimes I wonder if these people really like Winx Club, or they just like it because of what it made them feel in their childhood, and nowadays they don't like it very much but the nostalgia is so strong, that that's why they make these redesigns, they change everything about the characters, so that it is more to personal taste.

I understand that art is an expression... but sometimes so many things change, I don't know what to think.

I've even seen them for rewrites... do they know that I'm going to imagine the story with Winx's designs and not theirs?

Sorry for the rant.

I mean,, I don't think it's fair to say that all redesigners hate winx and just have strong nostalgia. As much as I bitch about the fandom's racism, I'll always be incredibly supportive of the amount of creativity and freedom of expression that fans have here. I've seen some fandoms where every little headcanon and redesign gets scrutinized for literally no reason. Not to bring up hp in the year 2023 but I once saw someone bitch at an artist for drawing hermione with dark brown hair. Like. The winx fandom is honestly one of the only fandoms I've been in where people are encouraged to share how they would change things. (not the only fandom of course, but it's definitely not a thing that every fandom does).

That being said,, I do see your point with some redesigns feeling like it's just hating on the og winx. I think most, if not all, of the people who are really active in the fandom, have a winx sideblog, or just post a lot of winx are very much doing their redesigns out of love. But every now and then, you'll see a redesign where the poster just,, shits on winx for no reason. Like,, I've especially seen a lot of outright misogyny and internalized misogyny about the winx wearing skirts and dresses and being princesses. Like sorry you can't imagine strong female characters with personalities who also wear skirts sometimes. deal.

And again, I have no problem with people just redesigning things for fun and wanting to see how things could be expanded or even improved on, but I've definitely started to notice more of an,, ego complex where some people act like their redesign is the absolute pinnacle of society and the og winx (and occasionally other redesigns) suck shit. Like no dude you're in the same camp smoking the same weed as the rest of us calm the fuck down.

I mean,, I'll always be more in favor of redesigns and headcanons. I think it's a really special part of the fandom! But I also understand why it can be jarring and even upsetting to see people take these characters and places and just,, get rid of every canon aspect to make it what they Want instead of just expanding on what's already there. At that point, it definitely feels like someone just wanted to play in the winx universe but didn't care for any of the actual aesthetics or lore. It also feels like a slap in the face when people completely change a character's entire personality and call it a headcanon like no babe that's not stella winx club, that's generic blonde girl #3. Literally just make your own oc at that point.

I mean again, I'm never going to just shit on someone's headcanon or redesign just because I Personally don't vibe with it. But I am going to call out racism. Always. And someone spending hours creating something doesn't absolve them of being racist.

#i feel like i should clarify #my post about melody was specifically about people being racist not people just changing things around a little #i mean i Get what youre saying #but i also feel like redesigns and rewrites really bring the fandom together! like its very much Our Brand as a fandom #even if we dont all have the same idea #we've all had thoughts on what couldve been done differently and how things could be expanded on #its something really special and unique to this fandom and i dont think its cool to shit on it just because Some people dont like wi.nx #again there are definitely redesigns out there that were done solely to make fun of the og which imo is shitty #but Most redesigns are done out of genuine love for the series #like most people arent spending tons of hours on a show they dont actually like #thats why most of Those designs are one off magic wi.nx redesigns where they bitch about the girls wearing skirts #but the entire rewrites and redesigns where people dedicate hours of their time? that's love baby #unfortunately some people are also racist with some of their decisions (intentionally or not) #like no sorry i dont care about cyberpunk melody or tall mega buff aisha or racebent flora or emotionally shut off helia #like i could go on and on about the really common racially motivated headcanons i see in rewrites and redesigns #its... :( #but the normal average redesign that someone is doing because they hate the later seasons? THATS LOVE BABY #answered #like maybe i dont post enough about how much i love and appreciate this fandom #so maybe it comes off like i hate everyone here? but no. i just hate racists #long post

THE TEXAS LIBRARY ASSOCIATION HAVE ISSUED AN APOLOGY AND A RE-INVITATION. HERE IS MY STATEMENT

hello buckaroos. the TEXAS LIBRARY ASSOCIATION have issued a formal statement and apology which you can read at the attached link.

while i find the language used to discuss what was done a little unsatisfying, i would like to start by saying i appreciate anyone taking steps to prove love is real and make things right. the genuine feeling of ‘realizing you have made a mistake and hurt someone else’ is a terrible one, and i have so much empathy for this group as they reckon with their choices causing harm. i appreciate their apology.

i also think more good than bad has come from this situation. i am so thankful this happened to me (someone with a large social media presence) and not a smaller buckaroo author without the means to stand up for themselves. i think the next time someone comes to the TXLA with an accommodation need, they will hopefully be taken more seriously

lets trot down to business about specifics now. the TXLA has re-invited chuck to the original panel and even offered to take a moment at the top of the panel to talk about what happened. this is very kind of them and i will say THANK YOU. 

unfortunately i will also have to decline.

the fact that it took this much effort, social media backlash, and discussion to let me simply EXIST PHYSICALLY in a way that is authentic to myself is not a good sign. if this organization immediately questions an authors chosen presentation in this manner, i cannot imagine what my other accommodations would be met with.

sometimes i am at an event and i very quickly need extra space to breathe. sometimes i am at an event and i need special guides to help me along from place to place. these are not ‘big asks’ and every other conference has gladly provided them, but if the TXLA had this kind of initial reaction to my physical appearance, i cannot imagine them readily helping with my other needs without ‘proof’.

this is clearly not a safe place to trot for those who require additional accommodations. regardless of any apology, their ACTIONS have shown that people who appear unusual or unique are not welcome at this event on a subconscious level. i believe the TXLA have some serious inner work to do beyond this apology, and i believe this inner work will involve actions more than words.

but even more importantly i would like to make this very important point: IT DOES NOT MATTER IF MY MASK IS A DISABILITY AID OR NOT. i appreciate the way this discussion has allowed us to trot out some deep talks on autism and proved love in this way, but i think there is a much more important point at hand.

regardless of WHAT someone looks like, it is not the job of an event or conference to pick apart WHY. physical presentation can be a part of someones neurodivergence, or gender, or sexuality, but i can also just exist as a nebulous undefined part of their inner self. it can be a piece they are not ready to openly discuss yet. the guests at TXLA are authors (aka ARTISTS) and the idea that a conference dedicated to an ART is going to deny people with unique and unusual presentations for ANY reason is absurd. since when are we applying a ‘dress code’ to our artists?

without knowing it, i personally believe there is an element of the ‘good queer, bad queer’ phenomenon going on here. there is a push to say ‘LOOK we accept these marginalized groups and cultures’ but behind the scenes that means ‘we accept these marginalized groups and cultures who are quiet and speak in turn and wear the metaphorical suit and tie’. it is easy to show diversity when you only take on the voices that arent too ‘strange’.

to prove my point i ask you this: do you think orville peck would have FOR ONE SECOND been asked to perform at the texas library association event without his mask?

so with that i say ‘very sincerely, thank you, but i will have to decline the re-invitation. maybe next year’

ran out of space Continuing in rhese tags

#the creation story is basically. all da gods making things and rhe twins job is to make the planets and so they go about doing that. #they each work on different planets until theres only one left 2 make. (my special planet). so theyre working on it but they constantly #argue over how this planet should be You know. and eventually the arguments escalate and escalate until its a physical fight #and they eventually draw blood. which falls 2 da planet and makes the first life :] and they get so excited over this that they stop #fighting. and instead dedicate their time to fucking around with the lifeforms and putting those fuckers in Situations to see how theyreact #thousands of years of this and they start 2 settle down a bit. by this point the life has evolved into fr People rarher than like animals #nd stuff. by thousands i meant millions etc you get it. so the gods step back a lot and dont interfere as often #bc they prefer t judt observe. BUT they stay on opposite sides of the planet so that they dont fight lol. #so yas. im also thanking abt how im going to have the different likee. races yk. i think they all share the common ancestors Obviously. #but im trying t decide how likee. wuickly they evolved.. like if they were evolved into seperate races BEFORE the twins kinda stepped back #or after ykwim... cannot decide. #also obviously the twins still like to meddle i bit.. they arent likee. malevolent. they dont do it 2 be evil #but to them the people r like. little experiments. so they like 2 get silly and see how rhey do #one of the thangs they do is the giant flood. this is famous.. originally that was supposed to be like a punishment thing and maybe thats #how the ppl interpret it. but i think im reality its judt the twins being like hehe. i wonder what this would do *raises the sea level by #like a thousand feet*

My favorite thing about the egg “arc” is that you can see the moment a parent goes from “Yup this is my egg kid that I have to protect” to “Oh fuck, that’s my baby and I would burn the world down for you”

Like the one moment that sticks in my head the most is when Leo told Foolish that when she dies, Roier will take care of Foolish and when chat translates the sign for Foolish, you can see Foolish’s heart breaking and him being like “Wait what?? You arent dying??” The later on, Foolish looking at Leo and groaning and saying “damnnnn itttt” because he realizes he loves this little minecraft egg so much.

Or when Fit starts staring at Ramon while he works/runs around and just taking the moment in. Idk if there was a specific time but yeah

Or how Etoiles went from “oh yeah pomme is gonna die lol dont get attached” to going out of his way to get Pomme pretty blocks and telling Pomme that he wont let anyone hurt her or her siblings

Watching these people fall in love with their eggs and the eggs around them is so special to me and my favorite part whenever new eggs come along. You can be as closed off as you want but you are not immune to loving your government assigned minecraft egg child
