Note

A lot of adults women behave like incels but less violent and more manipulative. They usually love the cringe romance movies where the main girl is average looking and not like the other girls and manage to make the badboy soft. Generally they hate hot girls bc they are jealous (see the way Skr stans talk abt Ino and feel victorious bc they "won" against her, the hot girl). Those women are full of insecurities, thats why Skr is so relatable.

The way Skr tries to not think about the fact Sske dont wanna spend time with her is the same way some irl women ignore that their husbands are cheating, and if they cant ignore it they will attack the other women but they will NEVER leave the guy. All their self worth is based on having a bf/husband.

Then there are some lesbian/bi women who stan her as an act of feminism. She is a female character who got what she wanted so its a win apparently. Fortunatly those ppl are minority bc as a queer woman and feminist, it is very embarrassing to read those takes. I'm all for uplifting women and for them to get everything they desire but not at the expense of non sexist men. Plus, Skr dont even look so happy at the end of the day. So is it really a win for her and women?

Yeah that makes sense. But it's sad isn't it? Because even trying to have a dialogue with them isn't helpful. There's no point having it if they aren't ready to be receptive to it.

Sakura really sees no contradiction between what she says and what she does.

And yet...

Lol. Till only two days ago, she was found styling her hair in the middle of chuunin exams, all skinned knees and having suffered minor injuries, while her team mates were working. She let her hair grow in the first place because she thought Sasuke liked it. Lol.

What impression can it possibly give to the reader? Kishi had to stress on it too, with another character this time.

Why would Kishi stress so much on Sakura and her obsession with her hair, just to make her say something totally hypocritical five chapters down? Lol. Kishi is very clever about writing his characters act according to the character traits given to them. Like for example, the panel below, Kakashi acts according to his character (where he has a blindspot for Sakura's negative shades) thinks Sakura is not the type to brag when she is actually exactly the type to brag.

Lol, Sakura's whole personality is about being obsessive for Sasuke which in turn makes her violently jealous of Naruto and Ino. She beats Naruto up regularly for no apparent reason and harasses Ino, even though that girl did nothing but try to help her. And she brags, it's the only thing she does properly. Lol.

And yet, she is always bragging, showing off. From start to end.

And I am positive I am missing some panels here lol. She is always looking for external validation. She revels in it. While external validation itself is not a bad thing, since humans need some amount of external validation to measure their abilities, and Naruto does it too, but for him, it's rooted in his quest for acknowledgement and acceptance, so he could make friends and not be ostracized from community. Sakura does it because of her ego. While Naruto has his principles rooted in his belief systems, his emotions and his dream that egg him on to do better, Sakura finds her motivation in the desire to show off and impress people, mostly Sasuke.

She disrespects Ino, Tsunade, and she fights Kaguya while she says this?

Girl, why are you so embarrassing? If you wanna attack her, just do it. Why even mention her being a woman? She wasn't mocking you, she barely even noticed you. You aren't worthy enough for her to notice.

Lol. And things she says about being a woman are just so cringe lol.

No one underestimates her because she is a girl, in fact Kakashi coddles her because she is a girl. She is underestimated because despite training, she is just weak and unskilled, as compared to her cohorts. And if she is skillful, we don't see it in the same proportion measured against the way she talks about herself. Tsunade never had to sing about her being a woman and yet people are bloody scared of her strength. Temari never had to mention it, neither did Kushina. Chiyo certainly briefly talks about how women always get the short end of the stick in their male driven society, but she not only belongs to a much older generation that has seen a hell lot, she is a master puppeteer and a superior warrior in her own right, she has earned it.

It would have been fine if only Sakura had actually consistently kept her word, proven herself through actions and not just empty words. Because when she doesn't, it reduces the value of those words. I don't know if she really meant it when she said women were fickle. Who? Tsunade? Kushina? Chiyo? Temari? Nope, they didn't give any such impression.

She constantly condescends to Naruto despite him having proved himself to be skillful, strong, the one who wins team seven several battles while she stands in a corner shaking and sweating. Thing is, she realises she makes mistakes. She acknowledges Naruto's strength as well, but she doesn't do anything to change. The whole point of a realization is to work on it and correct your behaviour. She is condescending towards Naruto till the end. Konohamaru takes her down a peg when she is being disparaging towards him and Naruto when they are doing the oiroke jutsu contest. She even hits Konohamaru, and he gets pissed off. So he makes a reverse oiroke jutsu just to show her true face, and that face has a streak of blood trickling down her nose lol. But when Naruto uses it against Kaguya, she again condescends to him. Narusakus are kinda embarrassing tbh, Sakura doesn't get Naruto. She thinks she does but she doesn't. She thinks she gets Sasuke but she obviously doesn't. And yet, she makes her 'strategies' in kage arc around her knowledge of Naruto and fake confesses to him. Naruto rejects her. Lol. She goes to Sasuke and tries to kill him (with a kunai...) by tricking him, only to be attacked, twice. Even when she drugs her cohorts before going to Sasuke, they clock her real plan. Lol.

She overestimates herself, even though it's clear that if she only thought things through, she would be much more successful. She is really blind to her own shortcomings even though she tries but remains unsuccessful, which is even sadder.

She does know Sasuke doesn't wanna spend time with her, she also gets a sense that she will always be much lesser than Naruto in Sasuke's eyes, she knows but she doesn't care. Even if it means long term misery for everyone involved.

Yes, I am sure some women find her character relatable. But relatable doesn't mean everything. I relate to Sasuke and I am very wary of establishing emotional connections but I know it's not something ideal or healthy. Connection is what people thrive on. If I ever started to relate with Sakura, I would really be compelled to take a hard look at myself. Lol.

So the MC wanders the forest. They come across a rabbit ensnared in a hunter's trap. At the same time, a hungry bear comes upon them. MC knows if they run then the bear will stop to eat the rabbit and they can escape. But they can't bear the thought of the helpless rabbit being eaten alive. So they free the rabbit from the trap. It runs off and the bear, instead, attacks the MC.

The MC is rescued by a giant rabbit wielding a mallet. After smashing the bear, the giant rabbit takes the MC with them to their home--a massive warren of intelligent rabbits, who claim to hail from the moon. Apparently the rabbit the MC rescued is the prince of the warren. The rabbit clan is impressed with the human and offer to make a contract, where they will come to the humans aid if summoned. In addition, the MC and the rabbit prince make a blood pact. It is the first instance of rabbits aiding humans, as no human before has put a rabbit's life above their own.

After feeding the MC and treating their wounds, the rabbits point them to the nearest human village and send them on their way.

From there, the MC eventually runs into the Akatsuki (Kisame and Itachi) who are instructed to capture them. (They later find out why--the Moon Rabbits are rumored to be able to make the fabled Elixir of Immortality.)

The primary relationship is Reader/Itachi but I'm a queer polyam person so there might be more?? And I don't have much plotted out right now because I haven't actually finished Naruto. But I have very strong feelings about this fic, like, it's going to happen.

The MC gets special abilities from their blood bond, mainly being inhumanely fast.

This sounds so interesting! You're really leaning into Japanese folklore here and I love it! there's definitely grounds for a good isekai here, but it could also work with an OC native to the Naruto universe. You could take this so many ways! Let me know if you ever go farther with this! I would definitely read it!

I have so much fun just picking apart Shino's very existence between the end of shippuden and the beginning of that fever dream that we're suppose to take as canon lol

Like all things considered, I'm not the biggest on shipping, but I REALLY enjoy how (genuinely and politely) passionate some people get. And I have this amusing (to me at least) idea that Shino doesn't actually give two shits about being alone romantically.

However, he does not appreciate being left behind or straight up ignored by his friend just because his friend has some other personal relationship in the works. He'd be happy for them, but who WOULDN'T be hurt by the fact a friend would drop you without hesitation for a chance at some play?

But this is Naruto. So we keep it PG.

Either way, Shino doesn't have to worry about that. Because around the time he stops going on higher ranking missions and starts to really study and eventually student teach, and/or takes on his own Genin Team to test the waters of teaching in general, he's around the village more often in that sense.

Do you know how HILARIOUS it would be for Shino to be that one friend who knows EVERYONE ELSE'S fucking secrets and love problems because he's like a neutral party and an invitingly good listener? At least as far as his guy friends go? Maybe some of the girls go to him for advice too? (Not sure if it'd be terribly sound but eh lol) Sure he's still single (and let's be honest, probably loving it?) (coughcoughaquariuscough) but he has the tea on EVERYONE of the girls. Even if he probably didn't wanna know.

And as a way to keep the peace, Tenten is in the same position with the girls. She's very privy to those similar situations and knows more about the boys than she'd like at any point.

Most of their friends are dating each other or other aquaintances. The only other singles are Temari's brothers back in Suna, (and in my head, Gaara at least is kinda gay) so imagine Shino and Tenten having to listen to some absolute bullshit from the boys and girls respectively every so often, then getting together over breaks from instruction, and just TALKING SMACK. But, like, affectionately though.

Mostly because Tenten is a Lesbian Boss Ass Bitch who becomes a Part Time Weapons Dealer and Instructor for Shinobi in all walks of life, and runs into Shino more often than not that way. And Shino is actually layers of queer, yet also not easily impressed in the slightest. He's very non-discriminatory in theory, but in practice he's a picky dude! And there's nothing wrong with having standards! (But even Tenten will get on him about detrimental idealism lol)

I just like the idea. Let Shino and Tenten be instructors in their own right, queer, and let them place bets one which marriage will end in divorce first lmao.

#anime: naruto #aburame shino #shino aburame #tenten #i actually lowkey ship shikatema #but i also lowkey ship shikashino and tematen #and i have a very jnteicate web of relationships I have weaved in my head #but its all just so specific #and also unfinished #i still don't know if Kankuro is queer or not in my head #honestly he's just having fun and is less worried about it than Shino is lol

We Are Who We Are Overall Thoughts *spoilers*

This review will be discussing briefly some of the episodes so far, so SPOILERS

So I started watching the HBO original series, We Are Who We Are, and I am conflicted. When I initially watched it, the dialogue made it hard for me to enjoy it so I stopped. Then after a couple of weeks after its airing, I thought, what the hell? And this time, I was pleasantly surprised. I always maintain the belief that pilot episodes are either boring, messy, or just bad so I try to push past it in order to get to the good shit. The pilot for We Are Who We Are was...I’m not sure how to explain...different? It certainly wasn’t bad and it made an impression on me, but this show as a whole is hard to limit by just a few words. It’s really something that you should watch and experience yourself.

It was only after the first 3 episodes that I began to understand the tone and mood that Luca Guadagnino was trying to convey. A lot of the time, the dialogue is abrupt and choppy and can make no sense. It can be frustrating, especially when you have two characters that aren’t communicating effectively. But I think that was the point. Guadagnino is a very realistic director, he captures the most realistic elements in a film. A lot of the conversations between characters is meant to emulate real life. Like, what the hell do you say when a conversation becomes awkward? Well, nothing sometimes.

While Guadagnino’s typical cinematography may suggest whimsy, in WAWWA’s case the small structured and synthetic model of the military base is juxtaposed to the very concrete characters. When I started to view the show less as simply a televised airing of fictional characters and problems, and instead looked at them as people, I began to really enjoy it.

Take the main character of Fraser, played by Jack Dylan Grazer. Fraser is meant to be seen as an extremely complex and troubled kid, but the difference between him and every other teen in a coming-of-age drama is that he isn’t polished. His drinking and drug habit isn’t framed as romantic or beautiful, in fact most of the time it’s portrayed as his weakness of sorts. In the first episode, Fraser has one of his mothers drive him home after getting pretty wasted and Luca graces us with a direct shot of him throwing up. And before that, Fraser is stumbling on a bridge when he drunkenly falls and cuts his face. Everything the character does is messy, uncoordinated, yet extremely real and relatable. Hell, in one shot you can clearly see him do a Naruto run!

Caitlin/Harper is a character that I enjoyed watching, as well. Jordan Seamon did a fantastic job and I really connected with their character. Initially we see Caitlin as this mysterious girl, and in the pilot we are meant to assume that their relationship with Fraser is supposed to develop into a romantic one. This is not the case as it seems that Caitlin is trying to come to terms with who they are. The biggest shift in Caitlin’s character isn’t their friendship with Fraser but probably when they get their period.

This was a moment that even I related to, even though I am cis when I first got my period I didn’t tell my mom until the day after. The possible confusion and shift in their reality that Caitlin felt was only heightened with the conflict of their boyfriend wanting to be more physically intimate, and Fraser’s eventual discover of Harper. I would have like to see exactly why Fraser seemed drawn to Caitlin. I’m assuming viewers were supposed to think that Fraser is attracted to her, or something. But both Caitlin/Harper and Fraser are queer coded and their respective sexualities are alluded to not being straight. It would’ve made their standing as platonic friends more clear if this had been established stronger.

I definitely think the writer could have devoted more time to giving certain characters proper conversations. It would’ve given more development to certain characters and better context for things. However even without that, there is a lot that the audience is showed that can’t be told through dialogue. The power struggle between Sarah and Richard being one. So far, there hasn’t been any explanation as to why they have a such a volatile relationship other than Richard being a homophobe.

Through deeper inspection, I was able to interpret it as: Richard may heavily resent the fact the Sarah was promoted to Colonel and not him. It is never made clear who has the better credentials, Sarah or Richard, but assuming that she was the one promoted it is a safe guess. This may be highlighted by the fact that Sarah is a women, and also gay. Even before episode 7, it was clear that Richard did not respect her authority. I also interpreted it as Richard being upset that and openly gay women was promoted instead of him, a black man.

Of course this is just based on my own personal knowledge of how the U.S. military can be towards people of color and LGBTQ+. Regardless, the competitive tension between two parents is palpable without needing dialogue to explain.

When conflict happens, I can kind of figure out which characters are going to react and which one’s will stay silent. I think the show is trying to accomplish a drastically realistic and raw series. It took me while to adjust to it, but by maybe the 2nd or 3rd episode, it starts to grow on you. Despite not liking a good majority of the characters, I was very surprised by how invested I was in them.

Like, Danny is my least favorite character because he displays very abusive and explosive tendencies, and doesn’t seem to care about the world around him. However, getting glimpses into his character and seeing how Richard ignores him for Caitlin/Harper, his suicidal thoughts, and how he is trying to reclaim his cultural and religious background makes me empathize with him.

Even though I hate his character, I can see that he is struggling. I appreciate the way that this show freely shows dark skinned black boys dealing with mental health issues, and personal development. Rarely are issues like suicide talked about in the black community, so seeing Danny talk about it and Craig offering(admittedly poor)comfort was touching. This is a general vibe that I get from nearly all the characters on WAWWA. I also appreciated the how Danny is actively trying to convert to Islam. In shows, rarely is Islam ever portrayed in a positive manner. Especially when female characters are shown to be struggling with their religion, Islam is shown as this barrier that prevents them from living life. Hopefully it goes without saying that the “taking off the hijab” as a way to show that a female character is “liberated” is overplayed and does not offer any respect to the countless Muslim women who choose to wear hijabs.

Now I think the pacing of some of the storylines could have been handled a bit more gracefully. Like how we jump from Fraser and Harper being kind of enemies(not really but you know what I mean), to just them hanging out in Richard’s boat was jarring. I would have at least liked to see the scene of them talking on the rocks at the beach. It would’ve given more insight on Caitlin/Harper’s character and also on Fraser too. Also how quickly Maggie and Lu(Jennifer but I love the name Lubaba, it’s my aunt’s name)jump into a physical affair. I just would have liked to see a build up of tension between all these characters but I don’t think this entirely ruins the plot.

I was very iffy when I learned that the show would be focusing on trans identity and gender and sexuality, but not actually hire a trans male actor. I was afraid that the show would completely botch the experiences of being transgender, and honestly I don’t have the authority to speak on whether or not this affects the quality of the show. I am cisgender, and only can empathize with this particular situation as much as I can. But I would like to hear to the opinion of someone who is trans and elaborate on the ways that they did/didn’t like Jordan Kristine Seamón’s portrayal.

Now at the time I’m writing this, the season finale has yet to come out. But I’d also like to briefly discuss the most recent episode and how it developed Jonathan and Fraser’s relationship. I was VERY worried that Guadagnino was going to take their relationship in the direction of inappropriate. While nearly all the depictions of Jonathan and his actions have been trough Fraser’s pov, it didn’t stop me from side-eyeing some of the interactions they shared. Of course after it was mentioned that Jonathan was supposed to be in his late 20s, nearing 30 I was immediately uncomfortable with the very flirty behavior he exhibited.

So when the scene of Fraser going up to his apartment after Craig’s death, I was very on edge. If Guadagnino had gone the extra mile to show an even larger age gap then I would’ve been pissed. While I enjoyed Call Me By Your Name, the implication that sexual relationships between barely legal teenagers and adults well into their 20s was sensual is something that I see as very weird now that I’m older. So seeing Jonathan as the object of Fraser’s affections made me extremely warry.

And honestly, I’m still surprised that the scene even happened in its entirety. I’m sure that Jack was not in any danger of being exploited but there were definitely points while watching I thought, what the fuck is going on? I was very worried that it would escalate, but I was happy to see that Fraser was the one who stopped it from going further. It made sense to me that this scene took so many liberties to be as graphic as possible without being too graphic, in order to show why a situation like that would be scary and confusing for Fraser. It wasn’t lost to me that Marta and Jonathan were the one’s initiating all the sexual advances. They held all the power in that scenario, even more so because Fraser is younger and has the tendencies to not make the best decisions. Though it seemed that Fraser was trying, he knew that the situation was fucked up.

I’d like to hear what JDG felt and thought doing this scene. What was his character’s thought process?

I’ve seen a lot of people compare the show heavily to CMBYN, which is fine. Besides certain cinematic parallels that people pointed out, I don’t see the clear comparison. CMBYN is more of a love story and it’s more polished than WAWWA. Now when I say tat, I don’t mean it as a negative. Rather, We Are Who We is obviously more devoted to realism and its characters. I appreciate the inclusion of more LGBTQ+ people and black main characters with development, something that CMBYN lacked. And for some people who didn’t like the show based solely on the fact that it wasn’t a CMBYN tv show, I suggest just going into it with no expectations and enjoy the mess.

And I’d also like to take a moment to commend Jack Dylan Grazer for his job in We Are Who We Are. All of the main cast are amazing actors and actresses and did a really good job bringing their characters to life. Though, I had always associated JDG with supporting roles that, while highlighted his acting talent, only put him in a one-dimensional light. As good as It 2017 was, JDG’s role of Eddie is only meant to be seen as a comic relief. In WAWWA, I was able to forget that he was teen actor, Jack Dylan Grazer, and really see him as Fraser. It’s worth mentioning that in a GQ interview, Grazer also mentioned how this role made him reevaluate is approach to acting.

And after reading an interview he did with a Interview Germany, with him saying he spent months in Italy reading the script and trying to perfectly craft this character, I was immensely impressed. I hope that he knows that all his hard work payed off and made a really dynamic and interesting character. I really hope that in the future JDG continues with more mature or multi-dimensional roles because he displayed that he has the talent to do so. Him being so young makes me optimistic in knowing that he is definitely going places in his career. I also hope that there will be a season 2 of WAWWA because despite having hour long episodes, the show still felt way too short. There is a lot about Fraser’s character, and all the others’ characters, that I want more information and analysis on.

Pending requests ✨

Hello lovelies! I saw @kunoichihatake do this on their blog so I thought it was a good idea and might help you guys know how many requests I have at the moment and what I’m working on.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Text

OKKO first impressions (s3e11-15)

I freely admit I started watching due to Gay Migration (watching everything that has queer characters in it) and I am not at all part of intended audience.

This is honestly Every Shounen Anime Ever, But On No Budget. Titular character in particular is Naruto For The Poor (I call him Narutowicz), but is having a speedrun of Steven Universe's character arc.

Venomous is an asshole and treats Boxman like shit. Poor guy has no self respect. Get yourself together, Boxy! I understand the appeal of comedic relationships, but cannot get behind this ship in particular.

For an episode fully devoted to Rad fighting Red Action because he is jelous for her dating Enid, we don't see Enid and Red interacting almost at all. Sure, the story hammers down that they are dating, but I want to see them actually together, dammit.

Overall, colour me unimpressed. I'll finish the cartoon anyways because there's not much left.

Quick reflection on the past ~10 years of being on tumblr

I had a dream about someone I used to have a big crush on (a high school crush), and when I woke up I basically scrolled down as far as I felt like going on my tumblr and got lots of bits and pieces of stuff that i’d thought about or interacted with over the course of roughly 10 years - I’m... 28 now I think? I made this tumblr when I was around 17 or 18 IIRC.

Some impressions that I get:

* the previous me was very lonely. i think this has improved greatly * also very motivated to grab meaning from bits and pieces of stuff in their life (sketches, photographs, articles about art and culture) * lots of old posts about ferguson / now feel sad about the fact that BLM still has to happen * there are so many things that are way farther away in time than I thought (naruto ended years and years ago! I first watched Eric Andre when I was like 19) * MYC lol * yay i found a job * all of the old alt lit stuff makes me sad - i miss feeling a connection to some kind of community or scene and i feel sad that it was also such a fucked up one * feb 12, 2016 wei told me i was queer and now i’m injecting estrogen into my belly every week * saw a post of Hey QT and felt something about the way that it was the first I’d ever heard of Sophie and now she’s dead * I keep looking at my hairline in old pics * i guess memes are mainstream now

and here i am somehow, laying on a bed in a friend’s apartment in Tarrytown, NY, laptop open in front of me in classic teenage internet-user style (though I didn’t own a laptop myself until I was in college)

I know that things have shifted for me a lot over time. I used to have no idea who I was or how I even felt - what did I want? meaning? beauty? I didn’t know what either of those things felt like. I didn’t know what I cared about.

I think that when I felt so alien, it was an alienation from myself. I needed not to be alone, which meant doing whatever everyone else wanted. I didn’t know whose wants to prioritize or how, and I just wanted to be wanted and needed.

I got all of it in the relationships that I had with Maggie and Wei. I felt sexy, powerful, beautiful, and I felt wanted by Wei. This turned into a cataclysmic relationship with Wei where they became suicidally depressed and tried to hurt themself fairly often. At first I loved it, since I thought that I could be what they wanted and needed. I felt like I could be their savior, to be the patient, loving, kind, dramatic, beautiful person that their parents never were. I thought that I could read psychoanalysis and save them using that, or that i could hold them through their panic attacks and give them the type of love I thought I’d have wanted or that I thought would have saved me.

I thought that if I kept bandaging their wrists, kept cleaning their knives, kept making sure they’d eat, kept taking them to therapy appointments, then to inpatient care, we’d get through it and come out the other side more in love than ever before. instead, i became irate and frustrated that nothing seemed to help. i berated them for wanting to self harm. i wanted to sleep with other people but still be the only person for wei.

i haven’t felt the same about art from the beginning to end of this - not that i know that i felt much about it to begin with, but the end of my relationship with them coincided with being exhausted and frustrated with my attempts at political art. Really, from the moment that Maggie reciprocated my advances, it was over for me.

I got some good work out of whatever i’d been thinking and working from before I’d met her - our collaborative work was the best art i’ve ever made. But, I was shifting. If what I’d wanted was to make the loneliness and sadness go away, I didn’t really care about art, just about the things I could do to make people like me; when i tried to hold parties in the install space, when i wanted to fuck maggie there instead of building something or working on something, and let it go mostly unused.

I feel weirdly ashamed about this now, looking back and seeing her frustration with me for the craven way i used the space, and the denial of that which could have been in its stead. I didn’t really understand any of it then, except for the part where she was upset with me, but I think I get it now.

It’s definitely a good thing that I got to get into group relations and circling and start to nakedly work this stuff instead of leaving it buried and sublimated under layers of art theory, “radical” politics, etc. I wonder what it would be like to go back to art school now. Would I be able to make something of and for myself? I’m not sure yet.

After all of that was over, I decided to let myself pursue things like money. I couldn’t bear to think about love or beauty. I remember watching some youtube video while I was in China from some self-defense gun instructor guy who told me that when the time came, no one would be there to save me or my loved ones, that I’d have to do it myself. That made me think that I should detransition - I hadn’t started on hormones at this point but even socially, etc, I thought that I should set it aside and get my shit together so that I could have some kind of power here.

I had a shit time of it. When I got back to the US, I thought about the views of LA I wanted to share with Wei. I thought about it every time I saw a street corner where we’d laughed together, or saw something weird, or passed on our way to go do something fun together - keeping sunho in the car while she was high after wisdom teeth removal.

I remember being in my own room and looking out into the hallway and remembering the first time i’d taken wei to the hospital. i remember it was in the middle of the weeks that their friends and I had taken turns watching them over the course of the day. I remember the locked bathroom door, and myself jokingly knocking on it, asking if they were okay and getting no response. I remember hearing their hesitation in responding, the words choking out briefly and long pauses between them as they said that they were okay, then admitted they weren’t and unlocked the door. they’d broken open a safety razor and had made cuts on their wrists. they were thinking about running away and hanging themself or jumping into traffic or something or other. i restrained them that night and we talked about them going to the hospital. the next day was spent with them on their phone to their insurance asking if they cover a hospitalization. i remember we were also trying to figure out if they could go without their parents being notified. we were sitting on their bed. after this, we went to UCLA to drop them off, and I sat in the waiting room with them all day until an ambulance came to take them to pasadena and i followed the ambulance until it got to some place there and i said bye since the psych ward wouldn’t let me in since visiting hours were over and i said i’d bring their friends every day and i did and one of those days, i saw a peacock in the street after visiting them.

moments like those flooded back as i spent a year unemployed, trying to learn to code, trying to figure out how to live. i missed them, too. i would have taken the pain over anything else. i would have taken the pain over life itself, because to me, that pain felt like love. It would be dragged up every time facebook suggested a memory of them, every time I saw one of their friends, every time I saw them in someone else’s photo on instagram. i wondered if they knew how much i thought about them. i wonder how they feel about me now.

and then i decided that i didn’t want to live like that any more. i decided that i didn’t care about love or anything and that i just wanted to make money and to be able to provide for myself. i went to codesmith. i learned a lot. i made new friends and they were different than the ones i’d had before. some were similar, but others very different - not possessed of the same guilt or anxiety about being white / male / etc, not worried about cultural appropriation or trauma triggers- just living their lives, trying to get by, trying to make money.

i was able to make something of myself there. i picked up concepts quickly and excelled in a way that was obvious to my peers. i became a TA there and taught people how to write code. In only 3 months, I’d gotten basically from 0 to students looking at and admiring me, seeing me as someone who had earned authority through the skill i demonstrated. someone who held answers, who could help them. it transformed me. I felt like i had a place in the world.

I learned the tricks. I interviewed with several companies, each time thrilled that I could get the attention of someone who thought they were talking to an experienced software engineer when I’d really only had about 3 months’ worth of education.

Now I’m thriving as a software engineer. I’m not the best or the worst, but I’m pretty good and I’m definitely an experienced engineer. I sound like one, I have a couple years’ experience, and I’m doin’ alright. The money is piling up, I feel more confident in myself, i’ve been able to date around a little, and i’m partnered with someone i like. i’m transitioning. i’m injecting myself with hormones and my body is changing and i like it. Even now, I’ve spent over a week in new york, wandering around museums, enjoying restaurants, spending time in the library.

i’m sure there’s something unresolved in here - i do feel a little bit of anxiety welling up and i feel like i’m justifying myself in some way. i’m not sure what the alternative is, though. i’m doing circling, i’m signed up for some group relations training, i’m the IT chair for Grex. As far as I can tell, it’s okay except for moments like these where I’m thinking about how I felt there and then. there’s a question that might still exist inside of me.

tl:dr;

* money worked out fine * more / different gender, more feelings * art is still a complicated relationship * place and belonging is very important to me * caring about money does matter * art was a good experience overall and i’m glad i got to do it * i got to do a lot of the things I wanted to do * some of those things were bad for me, but all were ultimately a learning experience * I figured out how to handle some things myself instead of hoping that others would save me and i think this was a really big one * group relations / circling is great and i should start going regularly again

Tag Game: 10 Questions:

Rules: Answer the questions, then create 10 more, and tag people.

Tagged by: @owlsofstarlight

1. Would you date any of your ocs?

Hmmm.

You know, given that I’m the cause of all their misery, ultimately, that would be a terrible idea.

If I had to choose (and not die), hrm. Well, Naviyd. Probably.

2. What kind of poster(s) would your oc have on their wall?

Naviyd has his father’s rather inaccurate, theistic world maps on his wall. They’re stitched somewhat haphazardly among more accurate records, diagrams, and a wonky drawing of what might someday be a pulley system.

And one nice sketch of a family of four, made by Khalil when he was six years old. It’s more aspirational than accurate, but Naviyd kept it there throughout his son’s entire absent adolescence.

3. If your oc found a time machine, would they use it? for what?

He’d probably tell himself to fight Zahara for custody of both twins.

4. Do any of your ocs have a catchphrase? If so, what?

Naviyd doesn’t see much point. Dude used to basically kill Kaltekan generals as a sacred mission, and he sure wasn’t going to make a career of that by sticking around and monologuing.

5. Tell me about one of your ocs hobbies.

Naviyd studies maps and architecture—which is why Gabilan is a lot more cavernous, winding, and mazelike than its squad design would imply—and spends his free time hunting from horseback with a bow. He does it mainly to keep his skills sharp.

If he wants to have fun, he finds someone and strikes up a friendship if he hasn’t already.

6. What inspired one of your favorite ocs?

I couldn’t choose. So, you get four.

Naviyd was inspired by...hm. Basically, I read a section of a Dungeons and Dragons Monster Manual (probably 3.5) and spotted the entry on copper dragons. My next thought was, “I’ve gotta have one of those.” Several more thoughts, several years, and one quick jaunt through CYB later, and Rikuto back-retconned his way into Naviyd’s personality, resulting in what he is today.

Oceanus was half-inspired by a wacky combination of Edward Elric and this dude named chaos (all lowercase) from Xenosaga. His affinity for storms is derived from a combination of my attempts to make a sorcerer character (D&D again), and the powers of Darker than BLACK’s Agent November 11 and BK-201/Black Reaper/Hei. He, too, has been through a lot of revisions to soften and sharpen different parts of his personality, until we get the procupine we have today.

Alena, for her part, is pretty directly derived from the powerset displayed by Tsunade back when I was first watching Naruto in like…middle school? She got a fancy coat from some bolt of inspiration I can’t recall now, and her personality ended up just being like… What I admired about people who could keep their kindness and strength in tough times. I think I read a few pretty dark stories the year I really worked nailing her personality down.

And finally, Lumina. Hoo boy. Originally, she was just a derivation—the spare, the younger twin, the goof to Alena’s mother’s stern nature. And over the years, Lumina went from the mere mirror to a stone-cold badass the more I read about some real shitty common tropes—the idea that a woman’s strength was always derived from a man, or that a queen couldn’t rule on her own, and so on. I thought, “Fuck that and the horse it rode in on,” resulting in this terrifying paladin who was just always good, regardless of what others thought.

7. What kind of clothes does your oc like to wear?

Naviyd will wear anything that is a) warm and b) looks good on him. In that order. If he has a choice between almost dying of frostbite or impressing a foreign dignitary, he’s gonna pile on those furs and demand Lumina heat the castle somehow, dammit.

He tends to get a lot of his work done while wearing just a plain shirt and pants, slippers, and the biggest blanket he can find.

8. Does your oc believe in love at first sight?

Naviyd used to. It did not pan out at all.

Oceanus doesn’t, at least as far as it pertains to him.

Alena does.

Lumina does not, and never has.

9. If you took your ocs for one story and put them in an au, what au would you choose?

I kinda already did that, by allowing all of these Terramir kids to wander over to CYB. Granted, some of them didn’t have the longest lifespan, but I’m generally content with the way that worked out.

10. What is something your oc is afraid of?

Naviyd is afraid of bears. Does that count?

Siri’s questions:

1.What was the trickiest bits of worldbuilding you have ever done?

Tryin’ to figure out what the fuck was going on with Alanrian politics. They’re a mess of squabbling states, and I still can’t remember why.

And most of the rest of the continents are just kinda...there. Like, the Mishik come from a different continent entirely, as do the Xinfanese, but those aren’t visited during the course of the plot because the thing focuses on stopping an impending apocalypse that the Kaltekan Civil War allowed to happen.

It’s their responsibility.

2.Do you have any maps(you don’t need to post the map)? What was your favorite part of developing your geography?

Cooking the macaroni afterward.

3.Does your story have magic? What are its limitations, if yes?

They do have magic, but the upper limit varies from person to person…and being to being. It’s usually a question of what’ll kill you first. That’ll be your limit. Creatures born in the Dreamscape have an instinctive grasp of magic, though they may not be the strongest, and can generally only cross over to the real world when either stumbling through a random hole or finding a human counterpart to latch onto.

Dragons are… another story. They’re basically mid-tier gods, and they can’t walk the mortal world without a vessel.

4.Does your main antagonist believe in god?

Well, dragons all do. They have a memory of their ancestors literally meeting the gods, wayyy back in their mythology.

5.Do you have secondary villains?

At least three, yeah.

6.How many words are your drafts?

I have no fuckin’ idea.

7.What is your favorite method of outlining?

Not to do so?

8.Which one of your ocs is queer?(if multiple, mention them all!)

Uh. The ones that I remember off-hand:

Oceanus (demihet bi)

Alena (demipan)

Khalil (aro pan)

Tirane (bi)

Riyaz (aroace)

Mitra (agender aroace)

Lumina (demibiro het)

Naviyd (aro demibi)

9. If you took your ocs for one story and put them in an au, what au would you choose? (Stealing from above cause this was a fun question)

CYB, natch.

10.Which of all the names in all your books, including characters, places, animals etc., is your favorite?

The names?

Hm.

I think my favorite stroke of brilliance was Lumina’s name in the first place. Sure, it means “light” in at least one language, but the fun part is that it’s also an unit of measurement for levels of light. Once I realized I could make a theme, I started spreading it around. Her sister became Luxana, while her older niece is Alena, both of which mean “light” as well. Her family last name, adopted upon being raised to nobility, is also an old reference to how people used to measure light: Lambert. Her sister’s last name now means “fire,” which is, again, a source of light.

And so on and so forth. There’s a theme.

I ain’t gonna tag anyone since it’s late and my brain’s fried. Night, all.

SasuSaku Meta Masterpost

This post has comprehensive lists of large swaths of the SasuSaku meta on Tumblr. I’m including both my own posts and those made by others. Some of the links under “Others’ posts” link to my reblog rather than the original post so that if someone deactivates their blog and thus the original post, it’ll still be possible to view the post on my blog (without me having to go back and find my reblog). This is for my own sanity, and hopefully this will come in handy for the SS fandom in general. :)
