#this is cottagecore and dark academia solidarity

[alterpacks]

Hello mod Dadza. I am 99.99% sure you'll know who I am despite the anon. Coughs. be so niceys fathercrow. </3

Could I get an alter pack for an alter (or alters the more the merrier actually-) to handle severe stress and homelessness? I'd prefer them to be sourced from Hermitcraft, Life Series, or Empires SMP! I need a soother or someone to just. do the thing. (The thing being leaving a severely abusive situation. Conditioning is one helll of a drug.) I know this is a bit heavy, and for that I am sorry. My brain/system is currently shut down and I need ideas, ykno? . . . Erm. Thank you in advance.

Hello dear, I’m here to help. I’m so sorry. I’ll cook up a few for you! I only know a very few characters from Empires so I will try my best

Seeing frosted grass early in the morning, observing as the grass turns dewy under the rising sun, and as any signs of frost disappear into the bright morning, feels like sharing a little secret with mother nature.

[lavendersage]

i saw that post from the girl who's girlfriend isn't quite ready to be out. if ur blog didnt seem to celebrate love of all kinds (and i'm not talking straight vs gay, i'm talking happy vs sad) i would have kept this to myself, but between ur response and the op's story itself, i think im going to take this chance of sharing a burden on my heart, maybe to help someone else, or just for the shot at becoming at peace with it. a couple weeks ago, when u asked for everyone to send u stories of their lovers, i wrote most of this out but didnt send it.

i (21F) am a college student (god, is this reddit?). my entire life, i have cultivated the cleanest good girl image that i could. my parents sacrificed so much for my sister and i to grow up far more comfortable then they did, so i have tried to honor them with a little golden child they could brag about. straight As, never missed school, did community service, perfect SATs. i worked tirelessly to be on-paper perfect.

one of the reasons i've worked so hard to earn Good Noodle Stars is to make up for the fact that i am terminally homosexual. i realized real early that i could literally cure cancer and the first comment on the news video will be, "okay, she cured cancer, but at least I'm not gay like she is." i could raise thousands for charity, and my aunts would still say, "our kids may not get off the couch but at least they have sex correctly." so they dont know. few people do, none outside my closest circle.

in walks Mars(21NB). Mars is an anachronism. they are both a romantic with and without a capital R. be still my Dark Academia heart.

we got very close before school broke for Covid. Mars wrote me a letter every other week, encrypted and folded so that the only way to open them was to rip a paper seam that would show if someone had tampered with it. it was intoxicating. it was the first time i felt able to communicate freely about anything. i dont know - i didnt hold back my emotions, emboldened by writing in cipher. i spent all summer waiting for those red sealed envelopes, filled with stories and poetry and honeyed nonsense, and i refused to not respond with mirrored passion.

it was all great until it set in that I was going to have to face Mars again, in person. i prayed our school would decide all students had to stay remote. of course I wanted to see Mars, i want to do much more than just see them, but i knew it would only be a matter of time between us being reunited and them asking me out.

this was a person who crafted a puzzle where the answers were flowers that were a declaration of fidelity in Victorian Flower Language. of course i ate that up with a spoon. u would have too. listen, i know all aesthetics are fads and all fads age badly, but if the cottagecore girls get to learn to sew and bake and grow, i owe dark academia for teaching me the vocabulary and actions of my most treasured relationship yet, and giving me permission to be earnest and vulnerable in this life for 10 goddamn minutes. Mars is handsome and a genius and i was not used to feeling connected to anyone. but for all that joy, i was also drowning with the thought of having to break their heart by explaining i cant date anyone AFAB.

so the semester starts. Mars asks me over for a homecooked meal since restaurants don't exist here at the end of the world. they made me a beautiful dinner with all my dietary needs in mind. just like everything else i ate it up. and i made no effort to stop them from inviting me over for food and conversation again and again and a fourth time just to make sure it really hurt.

they kissed me after the last dinner. and I kissed them back, before stopping. they apologized for moving too quickly, but i explained that they had moved at the perfect pace, just with the wrong person.

there is no nice ending to this. it's real life. Mars took it as a breakup and didnt reach out to me again. i sobbed from halloween to christmas, i swear. i'm the villain in this story.

i started this post off as a sign of solidarity to the other young lady, but now im realizing that this letter would be better read by her fearful beloved, not her. it is 4am where i live, so i apologize if this has all gotten away from me.

love is a garden u have to water yourself. ngl, my favorite part about this blog is all the posts about learning to love yourself, learning to see ur intrinsic value dispite the core facets of u that have been deemed flaws, and trust the relationship between me, myself, and i.

i started out telling myself i was writing this to help the high school kid, but i havent shared this with anyone. writing this out has helped me process a thing or two, or at least start to. i like this idea of lavendersage being a kindly cryptid who will alchemise ur heartache into calm.

i hope you dont mind if i try to make this a thing.

my story is in the shape of a love letter. its tearstained before it even hits the water. i drop it in your river and watch it float away.

y’all are breaking my heart with these stories this week 🤧i feel so sad to read them and so helpless to respond, because i know how deep that pain must run and i don’t know if there’s truly anything i could say or do to take it away. but if i can lessen it from 100 to 99, well, then i’ll have fulfilled my goal of existing on this website. at the very least, i’m glad that writing this message helped you process some things on your own, but i’m happy to share my thoughts anyway.

your mars sounds like a top tier human being. victorian flower language? i’m swooning. it’s no surprise to me that you fell for them, and they were clearly head over heels for you. folks don’t make grand gestures like that for just anyone, that’s for sure 🥺

and i’m very sad to hear about the way things ended. but, anon, i can’t help but wonder if it is indeed over, or if hope exists on the precipice of a great act of bravery performed by you--something i know from experience is much easier said than done, and something i’ve failed to do in the past, so i’m not trying to be a hypocrite here. the ball is definitely in your court, though.

also...it doesn’t sit well with me to hear you call yourself a villain. i understand why you see it that way, as it’s clear that you deeply care for this person. but for many folks...the fear of what our family will say or think or do weighs so heavily on us that it robs us of any possibility of happiness with someone who isn’t the kind of person our family wants us to end up with. i’m sure plenty of folks, myself included, can empathize with this. and i’m sure on some level, mars does too.

my love, as with all things, i hope whatever happens next works out for the best, and that you don’t let this experience darken your heart. if things change between you and mars, please feel free to drop me a note. i’ll always be here to listen 💚💚💚`

[museenkuss]

Hi love 💓 do you think anyone can enjoy dark academia if they enjoy the content, aesthetic & style?

Hello sweetheart! 🌹♥️

This was really interesting to think about! Firstly, the short answer: yes, definitely!

-

As for the long answer:

Dark Academia is first and foremost an aesthetic, just like cottagecore and the art hoe aesthetic from 2016 or so. Those aesthetics are tied to hobbies and certain fashions. Just like people who like cottagecore might learn how to bake and wear strawhats and art hoes might fill their Leuchtturm art journals and wear Kånkens, people who like the dark academia aesthetic perhaps read classics and wear plaid.

-

There is no limit as to who can enjoy an aesthetic. Tumblr likes to act like only thin white girls aged 16 to 19 can enjoy something, but that’s nonsense.

I personally feel like Dark Academia especially is problematic in that regard since the concept in itself is idealising rich white young adults, mostly teen boys. The media that is considered DA is basically exclusively about rich, white, gay-coded men.

And honestly, I personally as a 20something wlw find that lacking, to put it mildly. Nothing against white gays, of course, I have nothing but solidarity for them, but I would very much enjoy seeing some more characters for girls to look up to. Or, you know, anyone who’s not a thin white rich boy. (And no, the incest twin ghost from TSH does not count in my opinion.)

However, that is something to be criticised, not something that in ANY way indicates who can enjoy dark academia. You definitely do not have to be a rich white gay boy to read Ovid, go to museums and enjoy the thrill of finding beautiful editions of poetry books in second hand bookshops, and you should never have to feel like that.

-

Another aspect is that I’ve seen classic students getting annoyed because of the romanticisation of their academic field by people who don’t study classics.

In a way, I as an art history student understand that, because I too felt a bit annoyed when the art hoe trend made it seem like art history began and ended with van Gogh and Monet.

However, I changed my mind on that.

This is a hobby. People should feel free to enjoy whatever they want, in any extend that they want. If you want to learn six Latin quotes because you like them but have no interest in the language beyond that, that’s fine. If you only care for van Gogh because you liked the shades of yellow and blue he used, that’s fine. You’re doing this for you, out of your own interest. No one should dictate to you what you have to study and how much time you have to invest in something to justify your enjoyment of it.

-

To sum it up: You can enjoy whatever part of Dark Academia you find compelling, in any way you like and no matter your age, gender or background.

-

The only rule, as far as I’m concerned, is to not be pretentious and arrogant about it. Dark academia especially has a problem with that and I’m not a fan at all. Don’t make others feel inferior, don’t be rude. You’re not special for reading classics. The aim (in my opinion) should always be to better yourself and enjoy yourself, not to “be”/feel better than your peers.

-

Thank you so much for your ask, Lovely. This got a little long, but I hope it was helpful in some way! 🏛🎻🕰♟🥀🏺
