editing / fixing sprites + my headcanons

Part 1: Beta Lowbloods

Aradia Megdio

without bag

with bag

dead

she uses she/they and is demigirl and bisexual. her horns are covered in a layer of dust from scavaging for fossils and living in an underground hive. she wears a messanger bag that she uses to keep all of her fossile hunting materials and other things. she uses the fossils to decorate her hive and shes goth (original i know). her matesprit is sollux and her moirail is feferi.

Tavros Nitram

he uses he/him and is a cis guy (just is slightly feminine) he is mlm/gay. he loves fairycore and his favourite dog breed is a golden retriver (speficially the human version dave showed him, not alternian.) his robot legs will occasionslly malfcution, causing them to either get locked in place, squeak loudly, or get sticky joints. dave constantly has to call dirk over to fix his legs. his matesprit is dave, moirail is gamzee, and he has a black crush on gamzee (not very "black" though, mostly a "i can fix him" mentality but it ends up being "i can fix him but itll make me worse in the prossess) type stuff. its a pale leaning black thing.

Sollux Captor

he uses they/he/she and is bisexual and bigender (original i know but its kinda funny concidering my headmate with a sollux source is bisexual and bigender so im stealing that). hes emo and has a johnnie guilbert shrine in his hive he swears is ironic. he is colour blind (blue colour blindess specifically) so he sees voilet/purple as a ugly brown thats why he calls eridan ugly so much. he plays the synthesizer. hes double jointed and likes to gross his friends out with it. his shoes were orignially both white but he lost the second one but was too lazy to find it so he just wears the same brand shoe but different colours. theyre vans shoes. his matesprit is aradia , his moirail is dave , his kismesis is eridan , and his auspistice is karkat.

Karkat Vantas

he uses they/he, theyre nonbinary / transmasculine (has top scars and is technially transmasc but is also nonbinary i dont know if im saying this right) and is unlabeled for sexuality (they kiss guys but is unlabeled take with that what you will) they are punk even if they dont particualerly dress like it. their sweatpants are too big and their sweater is too small / tight so theyre a small gap of stomach showing. he purrs when happy, sleepy, or comfortable. when he gets scared their voice cracks and squeaks. when theyre alone listening to music in their hive hell jump around bouncing off stuff pretending to play the guitar and screaming / singing at the top of his lungs to the song. his matesprit is gamzee, his moirial is eridan, his kismesis is dave, and they aupistice for eridan and sollux.

Nepeta Lejion

she uses she/meow and is girlflux, catgender (original i know), grey romantic, and asexual. when she paints on her shipping wall she tends to get paint all over her and it has since stained her jacket. she has had her hat since she was very little and its very streched out and worn. same with her tail as its not part of her, it drags on the ground behind her and gets dirt, sticks and leaves caught in it most of the time. she likes to play the xylophone, read warrior cats, and play animal jam with equius. she purrs when she his happy / sleepy / comfy like karkat. her matesprit is feferi and her moirail is equius.

Pinned post yippee!!! (it’s been long enough I think)

I have a pronouns page which is just like a quick summary of everything but uh:

It’s clunky but I can’t be bothered to edit it so

I’m lesbian and girlflux, my main pronouns are she/her, I’m testing out he/him pronouns so if I suddenly decide nah I’ll just edit it. DO NOT USE IT/ITS OR THEY/THEM I don’t mind neopronouns, have a bit of fun with it

I am a Dee fictionkin!!! I like to be called Dee!!! My name is also prism but I like being called Dee as a nickname!!!

My ao3 user is prismcat if u wanna check that out

I’m merely a minor (14) so if you’re weird then you will be boiled

dni freaks you know who you are (I can’t be bothered to type the entire thing out. if ur on the average dni list you’re on mine too) ZIONISTS GET THE FUCK OUT FREAKS INCLUDE YOU TOO

more specific and odd dni lists:

dee and mono haters dni

also six haters I’m a hardcore six apologist

henry miller apologists (fake ass villain apologists when a real “I can accept him as he is” comes at them) (does not apply to six little nightmares she’s done nothing wrong)

also on that note otto (little nightmares) apologists also dni. haven’t seen any yet but i keep a baseball bat by my nightstand just in case but. if you are an Otto little nightmares fan PLEASE interact I love that fucked up british man

people who erase canon queer sexualities/genders (ppl who claim Henry miller is straight are on THIN ICE but can interact)

people who genderbend queer ships, but specifically when you genderbend one of them so it’s straight. trans headcanons do not count and neither does making mlm/wlw or vice versa. only if u make it straight AND cis

hazbin hotel fans (if we’re already close or already mutuals dm me and I’ll decide the verdict… Isually I’ll let it slide if I consider us friends but I’m really uncomfortable with the show)

vivziepop supporters/defenders dni

people who victim blame noone in any way (????? freak)

That dni list was longer than I’d thought and I didn’t even type out the basic dni criteria

anyway before you follow:

I am a whimsical child and I require tone indicators to function or I will spend the rest of my life thinking you’re mad at me when ur just having a little laugh. A giggle. a bit of banter

I also do not mean to offend anyone!!! and you’ll know if I AM trying to be insulting because I am TERRIBLE at it. if I say something mean, just tell me, bc it wasn’t intentional

Henry fictionkin and KFF are on THIN ICE

I think that’s it tw I’m British so if I accidentally bring up horrible things that is British slang then shoot me/j

[ooc]

edit: I DO NOT GET NOTIFS FOR ASKS OR MENTIONS!! if you send or answer an ask to/from this blog, please LIKE one of the posts so I get a notif and am prompted to check this blog because I have too many.

i dont wanna make an intro post again ack. hi welcome to my second unit shuffle blog my first was @jail-x-break-official and that blog has all the links to my other blogs which have all my information. here wee have sweet ♪ poppyseeds comprised of rui, mizuki, emu and saki. I'll differentiate their activity by emojis 🎈🎀🍬🎹 respectively and the entire group is represented by 💐.

the Lore. um. find out about it by prying them but ill give you necessary context under cut

so I will say that wxs did almost form in this au. think of it like if wxs never tried to reconcile after the fight between nene and tsukasa (and in turn tsukasa and rui). do with that information what you will.

edit: tsukasa has become relevant. he isn't a part of s♪p and as such won't be interacting with them and such, but I didn't want to make another blog for him or his unit because I didn't think I'd use it. His tag here is #🌟 tsukasa (other) 🌟 and signoff is - 🌟

secondly I will say that I havent the slightest clue what I want these guys to...do. part of the reason I made this blog was to try and iron it out. I feel like I want them to do something theatre adjacent but idk what. That said this blog takes place during their kind of formative stage, when these 4 are all just starting to hang out all together.

uhh. while a song didnt inspire this entirely the way jxb did, theres a couple songs that serve as thematic inspo; torinoko city, mephisto, and becoming potatoes 👍

uhh rp style: speech, actions, [thoughts], //ooc

shipping interaction is absolutely welcome. hcs time.

rui: pan aceflux transmasc demiboy. he/it/they. masc terms. autistic & bpd.

mizuki: bi w/male preference, transfem girlflux. fem and neutral terms. she/her. adhd & bpd.

emu: transfem lesbian demigirl + xenos. she/they/candy/wonder/star. fem and neutral terms. hyperverbal autistic dyscalculic.

saki: lesbian transmasc demipangenderfluid. she/he/they/it. any terms. hyperverbal autistic, hard of hearing & cane user.

also on account of saki being hoh all of the group knows jsl and rui and saki know asl as well.

uhh yeah I think thats all u need to knowww i don't think I missed anything. peace have fun w them

Label journey: More detailed edition

Orientation

I'm a straight girl definitely 100%. Sure I stare at boobs but that doesn't mean anything.

Okay maybe it means something that I stare at boobs

Questioning. For a lot of months

Okay I still don't know what I am but I'm definitely LGBTQ

I'm at the pool and I'm checking out all the women and not at all interested in men. Definitely a lesbian.

Briefly consider whether I'm attracted to nonbinary people, think I'm maybe polysexual for a little bit before going back to lesbian.

Lesbian and also polyamorous because I want to kiss multiple women (women are hot)

I realize that I'm extremely uncomfortable at the thought of having sex with anyone and start identifying as an ace lesbian (spoiler alert: it's the bottom dysphoria)

I have a couple of very nsfw fantasies and realize I'm not as asexual as I thought. Grey-ace? Aceflux?

Nope okay I'm an allo lesbian.

I briefly consider that I'm on the aromantic spectrum, but then I just forget about it somehow.

A year later, I have aro crisis part two electric boogaloo.

I figure out I am definitely on the aro spectrum.

I figure out I am entirely, 100% aro.

Okay shit I always thought I was a lesbian but now the label makes me kind of dysphoric and I kind of get euphoria from being a straight guy??

Straight lesbian!

Nah, lesbian is still very dysphoria inducing.

I am once again straight, this time in the opposite direction. Also aro.

Gender

I'm a cis girl definitely 100%. Sure I want a dick but that doesn't mean anything.

My friend comes out as nonbinary and I realize "holy shit, I can do that."

I am questioning for about six months while trying very hard to not be questioning. I'm definitely totally a cis girl I swear.

Okay, maybe I'm not a cis girl. I don't want to be entirely not-a-girl though? I'm just uncomfortable with that being my entire gender. (I do not, at the time, know that being multigender is a thing).

Girlflux- my dysphoria and level of comfort with being a girl fluctuates.

I start experimenting with neopronouns in addition to she/her.

Girlflux doesn't entirely fit anymore- I always sometimes feel masc. Genderfluid, then.

Hmm. I'm not sure if my gender changes. I never really know what it is.

I like genderqueer. It's vague.

I want to use he/him pronouns but I don't let myself admit that. I stop using she/her pronouns.

I realize I get a lot of euphoria from thinking of myself as both a man and a woman, and dysphoria from thinking of myself as only one gender. I start experimenting with the multigender label and I like it a lot.

I use all pronouns at school, but people only ever call me she/her. Very occasionally they/them. I don't like being called they/them very much. I wish I got called he/him more often (at all).

I change my pronouns to he/she.

Am I bigender or am I a binary trans man?????

I'm a bigender trans man.

I'm bigender, and one of the genders is binary male, and one of the genders is... woman but not exactly. I'm not entirely sure what to label it, but genderqueer and butch both work.

#gender shit #pride ask game #that's a lot. still not as much as yours and this takes place over years and years

used to do ballet as a kid and is contemplating trying it again now

dimples !!!

long lashes too but not as luxurious as arlo's

eyes glow in the dark naturally

sometimes her hair will like. glow?? bc there's electricity and static in it

OH JEEZUS FUCK

We finally, FINALLY found the page with our pfp edit, holy shit!!!

Anyways, have a Jasmine who is pinkgemic, neurogender, and endogebruise with a hint of girlflux, which makes them trans! We also headcanoned them as a Tiny But Mighty type of person who is shockingly strong/sporty, so if they had a Twisted Wonderland house it'd be Savanaclaw.

i'll keep it simple for once and leave out all my problems, but i do have many irls. i do want to keep this blog double friendly (as in i can do a character more than once and do characters i am that have different labels than how i actually am) so i also won't list those here for comfort, but it should be rather easy to find my irls if you're curious. feel free to ask me to put tws for sources or doubles.

BYF: i support all system origins(and i'm a quoigenic plural host), i support contradictory identities(i am transmasc girlflux) and mspec lesbians/gays, proshippers will get blocked, i don't really have a source blacklist(except real ppl) but if something that makes me uncomfy comes up i won't do it

other dni items can be found on my main blog

tags:

maki; forever in our hearts - important posts

maki; talking to strangers - answering asks

maki; reminiscing - self-submitted hcs

maki; duty completed - hcs sent via asks

maki; fresh fruit - general non-hc pride edits

maki; other - anything else i dont have a specific tag for yet, such as moodboards and stimboards

no more than 5 characters per request and no more than 50(?) labels per character. you can add alterhumanity, pronouns, mental health, neurodiversity, and disabilities as well. lmk if this is for a fictive or irl! /nf

moodboard and stimboards can be for aesthetic, color, indentity, character, or pretty much whatever you can think of.

How to Track Your Gender Fluidity

Recently I made a post with a screenshot of my gender tracker and was asked how I track my gender’s fluidity. I’ve been meaning to make an instructional post on how to set up the app so I redownloaded the app on a spare phone to show you guys.

In this tutorial, I will explain how to edit the MoodFlow App to track the fluidity of gender including changes and intensity, how to keep the app locked so others cannot look at your data, and how tracking genderfluidity can help someone better understand their gender identity. I will also provide some alternatives if you cannot use this app.

This method of tracking can be used by genderfluid, genderfaun, genderfae, genderflor, gendersylph, genderflux, fluidflux, boyflux, girlflux, enbyflux, questioning individuals, or anyone else on the genderfluid spectrum. Some personalization may be necessary but this tutorial will cover it.

Step 1: Downloading

You want to start by downloading the MoodFlow App.

As you can see, it is intended to be a mood tracker but there are customizable features so you can use it to track other things. It is available for free on the App Store and Google Play.

Step 2: Account Set up

The app will ask you to create an account. You will be prompted to put in your name and birthdate. These are optional.

Step 3: Color Palette

As part of the account set up, you will be asked to pick a color palette. You can change these later or customize them but this is the first important thing when it comes to tracking your gender. The app intends these colors to represent how you’re feeling (very bad, bad, okay, good, very good) but we will be using them to loosely represent your spectrum of gender. Later, these colors will make it easy to visually track your gender. There are five colors but it is okay if you have more than five genders. We will get to that later. They’re more like umbrellas for now. These colors will be a broad, simplified representation which gender you are experiencing on a given days. We will now look at the palettes (see below).

As a genderfaun individual, I personally use the "Default-Balance” palette (purple, purple-blue, blue, blue-green, green) to represent non-binary (purple), male (blue), agender (green), and the genders in between (purple-blue for bigender and blue-green for demigender). It is not a perfect system it works for me.

If you are a genderfae individual, I recommend the “Silver to Purple,” or “Sunset” palettes to represent how your gender varies from feminine, to neutral, to faded or whatever else.

If your fluidity covers the whole spectrum, I’d recommend “Farfalle,” “Sea and Sun,” “Pink to Blue,” “Yellows and Blues,” or “Kilimanjaro.” They have a range of masculine and feminine colors as well as some neutral grounds and mixes.

For any boyfluxes or masculine genderflux people, “Grey Means Neutral,” “By The Lake,” “Tea,” or “Into the Distance” could be used to represent the varying intensity of your gender.

For any girlfluxes or feminine genderflux people, “Raise the Lantern” or “All Pastel Everything” could be used to represent the changing intensity of your gender.

“Gray Scale Me” is a good choice for any genderflux individual with only one gender.

“Mojito,” “Outerspace,” and “Into The Distance” are good choices for people who are xenogender, agender, or just do not like the traditional “masculine vs feminine" system.

Again, you can edit these later, make a custom color palette, or you can just ignore using colors and use other features (explained later) but having a color palette to represent the range of your genderfludity is helpful. You don’t have to use these recommendations either. For me, I associate genders with their flags so I pick colors similar to those but you can do whatever feels right. Any color can represent any gender. You can also play around with it later to find whatever colors fit you best.

Step 4: Settings

When you are done setting up your account, you will open the screen to a calendar.

If you tap the three bars on the top, you will be given a sidebar where you can visit your settings.

In the settings, you can change your personal information, log in and out of your account, enable or disable notifications, and change your rating colors (the color palette).

Step 5: Personalization and Security

Within the settings, you will see the options to change your emotions & ratings, background, activities, and add a pinlock.

The background change is self-explanatory. There's a wide variety of stock images that are very nice but you can also add your own. I like using flags. If you’ve seen any of my old posts, I use a design with cats in the colors of the transflag. If you would like any wallpapers, you can ask me, you can check out r/lgbtwallpaper, just use google images, take your own photo, or use your own art.

You can use the pinlock to prevent other people from looking at your data. If you are in the closet, this can be a very useful so people don’t look at your information. Make sure you remember your pin though.

You can also back up data here but that is something to worry about later.

You can make other changes as well depending on preference.

Step 6: Gender(s), Pronouns, Intensity, etc.

Open emotions & ratings to create your genders. You can also add genders later when you are making entries but it is easy to do here.

Here, you can rename your colors. Where it says rating, just tap the words next to it and you can change it.

To make genders, start by picking your layout. The options are grid, mix, segment, and segment #2. I personally like using segment #2. The layout will separate your genders into four categories. You cannot rename the categories (they will be labeled positive & energized, positive & calm, negative & calm, and negative & energized) so if seeing them bothers you, pick mix. For the tutorial, I am picking segment #2.

You will then see a section labeled editor. You will have the option to add emotions and remove emotions. Start by removing all of the emotions. It starts with 60 (the maximum) so this may take some time.

Once you’ve deleted all the emotions, you can add your genders. It will prompt you to name it and put it in a category (positive & energized, positive & calm, negative & calm, and negative & energized). The categories don’t affect anything but it will change the order the genders are displayed and how they will appear in the app’s analysis features.

Since I am fluidflux and like using the segment #2 layout, I like to order them by intensity. I put libragenders and agender under positive & energized, demigenders under positive & calm, paragenders under negative & calm, and “full” genders under negative & energized. If you are not genderflux, I would recommend sorting them by feminine, masculine, neutral/ other, xenogender, unsure, etc. Again, this depends on the individual so you may want to play around with it. Here is mine:

After you create and organize all of your genders, return to your settings and scroll down to activities. Like before, delete all the activities.

Below, there are a collection of icons. Tap one and you will be able to create an activity. I like to track what pronouns I use, the intensity of my gender, and how fluid or static my gender is. You can also add things like how you’re experiencing gender dysphoria or euphoria that day, your gender expression, and how you are presenting that day. There are many icons to choose from so pick which ones you think suit which thing best.

Step 7: Tracking Your Gender

To track your gender, exit your settings to the app’s homescreen. If you are having trouble finding it, tap the middle option on the bar on the bottom that says “Feed.” Then, in the same spot, tap the plus (+) button. You will be taken to a screen where you add your entry for the day. You should ideally add one entry per day. You need to pick a color summarizing your gender for the day and can select the individual genders you are feeling at the time. Here, you can also add or remove genders by hitting customize.

Hit continue to move to activities. Here, you can select pronouns, intensity, etc. You also have the option of adding photos or listing medication. Listing medication is helpful if you are on testosterone or estrogen and the photos are helpful if you want to remember how you are presenting that day or want to track the effects of HRT.

There is also a place to type labeled journal if you would like to write a more detailed explanation of how you’re experiencing gender or if anything noteworthy has occurred.

By hitting customize, you can enable or disable features. A feature you can enable is tracking sleep. Sleep is tracked on a sliding scale so genderflux individuals can use this to track the intensity of their gender as well.

Step 8: Viewing Your Gender

You can best view your gender from the homescreen/ the feed. Any entries from that day will be shown at the top. By tapping it, you have the option of editing it if you would like to change something later. I would recommend not deleting genders from your entry if your gender changes during the day and instead indicating in some way that it changed.

You can scroll down to see the calendar for that month. Each day will be highlighted with the color you choose that day, making it easy to see any patterns. This is why we choose colors representing masculinity, femininity, neutrality, etc rather than having colors represent individual genders.

On the bottom bar, you can tap calendar to see other months’ data.

The journal section is the place to write down any detailed entries. The insight section will provide some analysis of your entries.

The most useful data is at the top. It will display the oscillation of your gender and the spread over an adjustable period of time based on color.

Below, it will also show how many times you selected a specific gender, pronoun, intensity, etc.

Step 9: More Personalization

Everyone’s gender is different. You may need to edit this further to fit your fluidity. Some people have less than five genders they are fluid between so each color could represent one gender, some people may want different colors to represent different umbrellas of gender, and more.

If you are multigender/ experience more than one gender at a time, it can be kind of difficult figuring out how to add an entry for that. Adding more genders and activities can make it more detailed. It just depends how specific you want your tracker to be.

Just play around with it and figure out what is right for you.

Step 10: Why Tracking Your Gender Is Helpful

Pretty much every trans person has those self-doubt moments and people on the genderfluid spectrum often experience that to a greater degree. I think we all know that feeling when your gender changes and you wonder “What if I’ve been this the whole time?” Very scary, especially if you’re just beginning to figure yourself out or if you’ve already come out.

Tracking your gender helps with that feeling. By having something physical you can look at that proves your gender really was a different one in the past and you weren’t faking or deceiving yourself.

You can see my tracking from 2021 above. I started a new gender tracker this year. In 2020, my gender was actually male (blue) most of the time and my gender would change in some way every few days. As you can see, I was non-binary or bigender for pretty much all of January this year and flipped to libramasculine on the final day. That is very unusual for me so if I was not tracking my gender, I wouldn’t know my gender fluidity was following an abnormal pattern and I likely would have doubted myself a lot and questioned if I was ever really a boy.

If you are questioning your gender identity, a tracker can be helpful because it is more reliable than your memory, assuming you don’t delete anything. There is less room for doubt if you are looking at evidence you really did experience something. And, if you are questioning the fluidity of your gender, the same thing applies.

Of course, someone who is not genderfluid can try this and if you later realize you are not genderfluid despite having varied data on a tracker, that is okay as well. This is a helpful tool but it is not for everyone and ultimately you are the best judge of your identity.

If you cannot use this app, you can also use a calendar or planner. If you are in the closet, marking each day with a colored highlighter isn’t that suspicious. You can also write down the genders you experience on different days and such. You could also try using a period tracker but that may be more difficult since you usually cannot change the settings and symptoms on those.

Anyway, I hope this was helpful. Let me know if you end up using this. Feel free to ask questions to me privately or in the comments or share this post with others. Have fun tracking your gender guys, gals, and non-binary pals!
