#it's what you deserve

[discluded]

one of my favorite things about porsche is that he was like "solo is best!" and then immediately became the pettiest, bitchiest, most possessive pillow princess in all the land like

it's not even enough that kinn doesn't have eyes for anyone else, no one else is allowed to look at HIS MANS either. porsche will literally cut a bitch (with glee)

2, 3, 5, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17, 18, 25, 26 for TAYUIN.

What does your OCs handwriting look like? 

What architectural or design aesthetic would best suit them?

The Winchester Mystery House, where he can run and hide from the consequences of all of his actions. listen I get one troll answer okay this has been a JOB.

What character from myth or fairytale best represents them?

Kai; The Snow Queen. Not so much Kai's role in the story as what the splinters of the mirror do to him. Originally an innocent young boy, when the splinters become lodged in his heart and eye, his heart begins to freeze, and he can no longer see beauty in the world, with most things now appearing ugly to him, only seeing the worst in people. He becomes cruel and aggressive, destroys the things people love to hurt them, and mockingly imitates people to make others laugh. Much of this is to the people closest to him, those who genuinely care about him. 

I think Tay tends to see the world in a very similar way, even more so himself. He considers the world to be cruel, a breaker of fragile things, so he tries to make himself unbreakable, and to break things (and occasionally people) first before they can get to him.

If your OC were to imagine their idyllic life (realistically or otherwise) what would it be like?

This feels spoilery LOL, so I'll only answer the way Tay thinks he wants his life to be, though even then, there are once again ~layers~. 

On the very tiptop surface, Tay almost wants what his people assumed he was born to be; to be special, unique, celebrated as something never seen before amongst his kind, with powers that set him above the rest. To be put on a pedestal and revered. But even he knows it's too late for that. Even if he gained that, it doesn't undo the ways he was shunned for most of his life before, and it would ring hollow and meaningless. 

Underneath that, he'd settle for just being "ordinary", at least amongst the Eladrin. To only have a connection to one of his birth seasons (probably winter, if he had the chance to choose), to fit in and just be a "normal" prince with the powers he should have had to start with. To have his family treat him as equal, to not be a burden, to be able to do his duties as a royal, to join the Frostguard, as expected of a winter Prince of Arbor'sai.

Deeper than that, though? What Tayuin would really want? Well. That's a ~secret~

What piece of moody poetry or novel quote best encompasses your character?

"He said it was better to belong where you don't belong than not to belong where you used to belong, remembering when you used to belong there."

     – Terry Pratchett, Wee Free Men

___

"There are so many fragile things, after all. People break so easily, and so do dreams and hearts."

     – Neil Gaiman, Fragile Things

___

"Damaged people are dangerous. They know they can survive."

     – Josephine Harper, Damage

___

"The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong at the broken places."

     – Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell to Arms

Who is your muse's muse? (What or whom inspires/drives them?)

Himself. No, literally. He doesn't think well enough of anyone else to be "inspired". I suppose, at most, he took on aspects of a few of his family members he saw as useful (the pride and indifference of Eth, the easy charm of Ailos etc), but I wouldn't call that "inspired by". And his main drive is just... survival, with perhaps some glimpses of fun and gratification along the way.

What is their character theme song and why? If it has lyrics, which line best fits them?

"I won't hold on like someone who believes it." Persona Non Grata - Whale Bones

I mean, I was very tempted to quote the entire song, to be quite honest. Especially the first verse and the chorus. The meaning behind the song is just so damn applicable to Tayuin. He's done putting his trust in people, of being used while it's convenient, of being discarded for not being what they wanted him to be. But I think that line in particular really is where Tay is at right now, because, most of all, he's done holding on to the belief they'll change, or that anyone else won't just do exactly the same if given the chance.

Is your character bilingual or multilingual? Which language are they most comfortable in or prefer using? How did they come to learn them?

Multilingual. Tayuin's mother tongue is a highly differentiated form of Fae specific to the isolationist Eladrin, but as a royal, there were certain expectations regarding his education. He had to obviously learn the common tongue, fae and high elven, but also most "higher" languages as well, anything spoken by nobles of races the Eladrin might ever need diplomatic talks with (rare, because again, v isolationist, but still). It's one of the subjects Tay excelled in, as it required a certain amount of social mimicking, and as someone who was always observing others to uncover ways to fit in, it came naturally to him. 

Whilst Eladrin Fae is obviously what comes most naturally to him, he's spent enough time moving through the world that common is his default. He is fluent and comfortable enough to pass as a native speaker in most languages he can speak, though. However, as the secluded Eladrin are probably not up to date on the more obscure languages or more specialised dialects, he'd probably sound archaic or overly formal in any of those.

Do they have an accent? How do they or others think of it?

Following the last question, no. Tay has always taken great care to also sound like a native speaker in anything he speaks.

What is a common misconception about your OC? (Alternatively, what do people assume about them which is either incorrect or misconstrued?)

It depends on which layer of Tayuin the person has access to. Surface layer Tay is, for example, what the public following the trials get to see, as well as the average person he met in his journeys since leaving the Faelyn Wilds. He's sweet, innocent, if a little cheeky. All charming smiles and a heart of gold. Even seemingly naïve at times, the cute little lost boy with the big blue eyes, how could you ever suspect him?

Then there's what most of the other contestants probably all see by now, nothing more than a scheming little brat that would do anything to get ahead. And, in a lot of ways, they're not exactly wrong. But it's still not really him; it's just another layer, another defence, another wall to protect himself.

What sort of role do they take on in relationships, either familial, romantic or platonic. i.e. are they a defender, protector, nurturer, etc.

Currently, Tayuin sees nearly every form of relationship as transactional. "I give something, I get something, and if I do it right, I get more than I give" kind of mentality. So almost every relationship is based on that at its root. His familial relationships are the only ones that aren't/weren't, as he always sought nurturing yet obtained little. Depending on the family member, he received cold distance, pity, or even torment instead. Not sure what you call that "role" lol. Victim? (⚆_⚆;)

"Romantic" relationships currently do not exist to Tay. Any, uh... (⚆_⚆;) dalliance so far has also been very transactional, either figuratively or, uh, literally, lol. Any real romantic relationship would have to be very special to break him out of that thinking, but if it did... I think Tay desperately wants to feel safe, or at least cared for, to belong. But for someone to ever become that important to him? I could see him becoming extremely protective in return. So... Protector and Protected? 

What is one thing that they only let those closest to them see?

Vulnerability. And even then, you're gonna have to get reeeeeal close for him to let you see it willingly.

If they were to lose the person closest to them, how would they mourn them and how would they handle their grief?

why does this question exist

Depends. Tay doesn't generally let people close enough to care. For someone to become that special that it would affect him? He'd probably see it as further evidence of his old view being correct, that the world is cruel and against him, entrenching him back into that mindset. And he'd be even more sure never to let himself be so vulnerable as to let it happen to him again. ಥ_ಥ

I had this dream of Smartie owning a thick dildo and vibrator to moments of need before meeting Stud and she never put those away. And Stud finds them and thinks he maybe nor doing a good job and wants to step up his game 😈

Love this, nonnie! You may have spent a lot of time studying after your last boyfriend, but you have needs. 😏 And I think the question if Stud finds them is if he plans to use them on you. 😉

"You'll get my cock soon, Smartie. Just let me play a bit more."

Love and thanks! ❤️

the men and boys are innocent too.

we cry "the innocent women and children" to appeal to the masses, to try and force their sympathy, but the men and boys are innocent too.

I have seen sons crying out for their mothers, their fathers, their siblings. I have seen them break down at the loss of their families. I have seen them cling to their dead and grieve.

I have seen fathers cradle their dead children, seen them kiss their faces and hold their little hands. I have seen them faint with grief when asked to identify the dead. I have seen them carry their sons and daughters. I have seen them fasting to provide what little they can for their families.

I have seen men and boys digging through the rubble with just their bare hands, I have seen them comforting strangers, playing with children, rocking them, hushing them, even if the face of such imminent danger. I have seen them cry, seen them grieve, seen them break down into each other's arms, seen them be selfless, beyond selfless, becoming something I don't have a word for.

I have seen the men who are doctors refuse to leave their patients, even when they have no medicine or supplies to give them, even when they're threatened with bombings. I have seen fathers who have lost all their children pick orphans up into their arms and proclaim them their child so they are not alone. I have seen men and boys digging pets out of the rubble.

the men are innocent too. the men and boys are being hurt and killed too. the men and boys are grieving too. the men and boys are scared too. the men and boys are fighting to save their people too. the men and boys deserve to be fought for too.

#I don't have words to describe how I feel for the men of Palestine #the things I have seen them do after everything they have been through goes so far beyond selfless #what do you call this? this prevailing goodness and willingness to give everything they have and more? what word even touches it? #I don't think there is one #islamophobia has conditioned us to see these men and boys as evil and dangerous #we see this in how we speak about Palestine #and we need to uncondition ourselves #they're just as innocent and of value and good as the women and children #so fight for them #they don't deserve this any more than the women and children #free palestine #palestine

Keep seeing that post where OP starts like 'Thinking about...grieving the undead' and then adds on about like. Real life situations where people have not died but have left your life and you would have reason to grieve them.

All respect, that's an important concept, but that is not what I am thinking about when I read 'grieving the undead'.

#your brother is a vampire. he's sitting across the table from you chatting with your mother about her day #and he's dead and he's gone and he's never coming back. #he laughs the same and he talks the same but his arm is cold when he grabs you in a headlock and your dog won't be in the same room with hi #he'll still hang around watching TV with you and give you wedgies and make stupid jokes #but you can't tell him about the bullies at school anymore because this thing with your brother's face will just find them and kill them. #and not even stupid fucking Jason deserves what the monster in your dead brother's skin would do to him. #your brother is dead and lost and right there in arm's reach and gone forever with no hope of ever getting him back. #i'm sure there are corollaries to be written about like ghosts and zombies but this is the one i'm personally hung up on recently

cant tell you how bad it feels to constantly tell other artists to come to tumblr, because its the last good website that isn't fucked up by spoonfeeding algorithms and AI bullshit and isn't based around meaningless likes

just to watch that all fall apart in the last year or so and especially the last two weeks

there's nowhere good to go anymore for artists.

edit - a lot of people are saying the tags are important so actually, you'll look at my tags.

#please dont delete your accounts because of the AI crap. your art deserves more than being lost like that #if you have a good PC please glaze or nightshade it. if you dont or it doesnt work with your style (like mine) please start watermarking #use a plain-ish font. make it your username. if people can't google what your watermark says and find ur account its not a good watermark #it needs to be central in the image - NOT on the canvas edges - and put it in multiple places if you are compelled #please dont stop posting your art because of this shit. we just have to hope regulations will come slamming down on these shitheads#in the next year or two and you want to have accounts to come back to. the world Needs real art #if we all leave that just makes more room for these scam artists to fill in with their soulless recycled garbage #improvise adapt overcome. it sucks but it is what it is for the moment. safeguard yourself as best you can without making #years of art from thousands of artists lost media. the digital world and art is too temporary to hastily click a Delete button out of spite

I think so many people are so deeply alienated from themselves that they have no clue how to exercise their free will and autonomy. For some, this alienation runs so deep that they are afraid of their own autonomy and humanity. It is completely understandable why one would have those feelings, but it can be worrisome.

I want to help others who feel this way, so here are small things I have done to exercise my free will:

Add "guilty pleasure" songs to playlists and actually listen to them (I have a ton of late 1990s-early 2000s music I listen to now proudly that I never listened to in the past out of shame)

Getting the décor item, bath set, bed spread, ect. in the patterns you like, even if it's "childish" (I got a dinosaur-themed wastebasket from the kids' décor section and I adore it)

Taking a new route to get to a place you go to often

Eat dessert first

Celebrate well, and often

Collect things that are "odd" or don't seem like an "acceptable" thing to collect (somebody on my "for you" page collects dandelion crayola crayons and it was so cool!!!!!!)

Incorporate one new piece in an outfit you wear frequently (e.g., a new chain, a necklace, ribbons, bracelets, ect.). Challenge yourself to add onto the outfits if you feel up for it.

Sing along to songs without worrying that you sound "good" or your intonation is completely accurate

Read a book from a genre you weren't allowed to read as a kid (comics, thrillers, mysteries, anything!)

Walk without having a specific destination or goal

Pick up a new craft without expecting yourself to master it or to ever be "good" enough. Get your hands messy.

I don't want to shame anybody for not feeling as though they have free will or that they are exempt from exercising it. However, I wanted to give ideas so that you might read this list and find your own ways to express your intrinsic autonomy and will. You deserve to be a person, to feel alive, not just living. That is what our lives are for.

#mental health #mental health support #positivity #if anybody has ideas of their own definitely include them! #i just think being stuck with this feeling that you don't have autonomy and that you ultimately aren't an equal person or a person at all.. #...in comparison to other people can be a really troubling and dangerous place to be in... #...and that isn't the person's fault for feeling that way. they didn't pluck those thoughts out of thin air... #...like i have felt that exact way all my LIFE because i have been abused for. probably 2/3s of my life... #...only within these past few years have i even FELT alive. frankly it's going to take a while to repair what i have been left with... #...so i know the feeling and i want to help others feel even a LITTLE bit alive. you deserve it... #...you deserve to take in a deep breath before slowly realizing 'oh my gd this is what it feels like to be alive' and SMILE about it #i want that for you even if it is brief. even if it is small. even if it is a whisper. i want you to feel alive #unironically getting rid of the idea of 'guilty pleasures' has made my life SO much better
