CALLING ALL FANTASY FICTION WRITERS HERE ON TUMBLR!!!! 📣

I am in desperate need of someone’s help. I’m trying to name a Fairy Godmother character who eventually goes dark at one point in her storyline. It seems every name I come up with my friends hate or if they even remotely agree on something I end up hating it. It’s becoming impossible and is almost making me want to give up on the story. Please DM me if you’re willing to help.

[cozzaink]

I am working on an interactive blog for a series I’ve come up with. It will be titled “The Charming Trials”. It’s a story about underdeveloped characters trapped in their creators imagination without their own story. Until one day that creator gives them the opportunity to get their own stories and be free from the unfinished world they’re living in. Overall, it’s a story about finding your purpose and discovering who you are. I would love for some feedback on what kind of interactive things fans would want to see and experience on this blog. For example; one scene in the beginning, one of the main characters comes across a hidden cabaret (kind of like a speak easy) and listens to another character sing. The singing character is based off of one of my aunts who actually does sing and perform in cabarets so I would add a hyperlink right into the narrative that will allow the reader to hear her sing 16 bars.

Let me know what else you guys would want to experience!

[cozzaink]

I really needed to see this. I have recently come to this realization in learning about my adult self and bettering myself. There are two people in my life close to me that effected me in a negative way and for the longest time I was scared to write stories and/or characters that portray them and the negative things they put me through because of who these people are to me. I was afraid of their judgement, but I am finally at a point where I say “no more” and “never again”. This is my truth and now I know that others have seen it all along and will stand by me. I’m going to finally write not only that story, but those characters as well.

God I really wish carrying stuffed animals around with you was socially acceptable

[mitch-that-bitch]

I don’t mean to take over a post, but I actually did a project on this for my sociology of deviance class in college!

I carried a large stuffed rabbit whenever I went in public for about a week to observe the reaction of others. The point of the project was to do something harmless yet unusual to see if the action would be considered deviant, in which case someone had to try to correct or shame the behavior.

Long story short, nobody tried to correct my behavior. I was asked about it casually, had a few lingering stares thrown my way and when I was with my boyfriend, shop employees would direct questions to him instead of me. However, nobody refused to assist me when I was alone in a store, nobody said anything about the rabbit besides “oh, thats a cute bunny!” and I attended college classes without even a teacher questioning it.

In conclusion, it is socially acceptable to carry a stuffed animal, its just not a societal norm. ^^

DOING IT

[thebibliosphere]

My friend gave me a stuffed monkey plushy when I was struggling with uni, and I took him everywhere for like four years, usually velcrod to my backpack. No one said a damn thing, except my renaissance professor who saw it one day in the hallway and cracked the fuck up because I had a literal monkey on my back and he just looked at me like, “oh god, me too”. I used to leave him on desks during classes and exams (the monkey, not my prof). It was my reminder that someone cared if I was coping. But more than that it was soothing to have something to fidget with that wasn’t a pen. I used to ping those fucking things across the room I was so agitated. Harder to hurt people with a projectile stuffed monkey.

[kripke-is-my-king]

I got what I thought was a normal screen cleaning kit for my computer while I was in college. Much to my delight, instead of a little washcloth or whatever, the kit came with a tiny stuffed pig. 

So I carried this pig in my backpack all through college, periodically taking it out, spraying my screen, and using the pig to wipe it off. 

Now, I kept the pig in the side pocket of my bag where he was completely visible.

Then one day in screenwriting class I pulled him out to wipe my screen. 

One of the guys sitting next to me looked appalled. “You’re wiping it off with your little stuffed animal??” 

I explained what the pig was. 

Turns out, the guy had noticed it and just thought it was adorable I carried a stuffed animal with me every day. He’d never mentioned it before. 

Honestly, people do not care, and will not say anything. No matter the reason for your little stuffed animal friend. 

[marcys-underground]

And if you’re still really nervous about it keep a stuffed animal keychain on your bag. I have a cute little frog that stays on my backpack so when work gets stressful I can squeeze it.

For my anxious followers.

[shadowy-dumbo-octopus]

Confirmed. I take my Venom tsum tsum to uni when I need a little mental boost. The little goo always brings me good luck and overall makes my day just a tiny bit better. I haven’t received a single comment about them so far.

Bring your stuffed buddies to class/work/whatever, guys. People don’t care.

[lemonsharks]

I have a couple of Ikea sharks* and have had cause to periodically carry them around in public - one of which I bought with the last $15 I had at the time, after making a series of big life changes. “This is frivolous and I don’t have to care about that because I’m getting paid shortly—I’m going to do it!”

The reactions I get range from amusement through delight and “WHERE DID YOU GET THAT” but so far, never disapproval.

The moral of the story is Carry Your Emotional Support Plushie With Pride, You Deserve It.

*pictured: not my shark

[taraljc]

true story: I once had an appallingly awful day at the hell job and it coincided with my giant squishy Baymax being delivered from China, and no lie I hugged on that Baymax to keep from crying until it was time to leave

[lauraannegilman]

I travel with DC (”Don’t Care”) the Emotional Support Honey Badger.  I go through TSA with him attached to my backpack, I hug him when I sleep in transit, I prop him next to me in cafes in cities, towns, and rural areas.  The only time anyone’s ever so much as raised an eyebrow at me was the TSA agent who recognized what he was, and asked it he could get his picture taken with him.

People don’t judge.  Kids think you’re awesome. You get a companion who never judges you.  It’s all win.

[soft-bois-blog-deactivated20210]

I know probably everyone has seen this post already, but its too good not to reblog.

Don’t be afraid to carry your comfort items around with you! :D I take some of my stuffed friends to work sometimes, and no one ever bats an eye at them!

[stargazing-at-the-moon-deactiva]

*looks at my pink teddy bear I named Ruby* you’re coming to college with me and that’s not a choice

[thefurriestofchows]

This post made me cry bcuz sometimes i feel bad for having stuffed animals/plushies

[starkcontrasts]

i needed this a lot

[dragonbookhoard]

Yup, can confirm as well!

September 2019, I had to go finally get a blood draw for a yearly physical that I had put off for literally 6+ months (needle-phobia!) and my ex was a shitheel and refused to support me or go with me (and honestly kind of belittled me for the fear in the first place).

So I decided to go with the stuffed penguin he’d gotten me back when he wasn’t a complete shitheel, that I treasured (mostly because he’d given it to me and I attach a ton of importance to that stuff).

No one cared.  In fact, I brought it up more, because I wanted to explain it so it wasn’t weird, lol (it only made it weird in the process, ironically).  But yea, really.  No one cares.  They won’t say anything, and at most you’ll get a glance or somethin’.

[cozzaink]

This makes me so relieved! I’m 28 years old and grew up with this one bear that I still sleep with. I also have other stuffed animals around the house. Recently I got diagnosed with moderate depression and heightened anxiety. The psychiatrist I saw was about to recommend that I start carrying around stress balls. I told her that I actually have a ton of stuffed animals (most of which are portable i.e. fit in my purse) and I do find them soothing and comforting so I’d rather carry around an emotional support bear. She loved the idea and changed her recommendation to that and said she might make the same recommendation to other patients! I told my family and friends when they asked if I got “prescribed” anything and they all had the same reaction; a chuckle and something along the lines of “that makes sense for you”. Not in a bad way like I got laughed at or anything, just that they were relieved that’s what I was “prescribed”.

Long ago, in a time when the Fae were most feared, it was tradition that when a princess came of age she would be taken to the Nevermoore Forest at the center of all the kingdoms and be locked away in a tower. The Kings and Queens of those kingdoms would send the most eligible champions to brave the forest and rescue the princess. Many of those champions, be he knight or prince, died trying to rescue them.

When Princess Nova turned thirteen, she was sent into the Nevermoore Forest and was locked away in a tower. As was tradition. She knew it well and prepared herself for the wait. She practiced patience and learned ways to keep herself occupied while in the tower. She knew one day someone would come for her. No princess was known to have been left unrescued.

As the years passed, Princess Nova would receive news when another princess had been successfully rescued from a tower. She always felt happy for them. They were off to their happily ever after. But as time went on she felt herself growing impatient and frustrated. Sometimes she wondered if her parents were sending anybody to go and find her.

One morning she woke up and decided she was tired of waiting. She would rescue herself . . .

[cozzaink]

Kind of peeved by the trope:

“You should really call your mother and make amends.”

“No. You don’t understand what happened between us. Just leave it alone.”

*calls mother without consent. Mother shows up and everything is fixed*

The fact of the matter is irl, you don’t know or understand what happened between your friend and their mother or father or both parents. Don’t intervene because you could make things so much worse and depending on how your friend feels about it, is it really worth losing your friend over?

[cozzaink]

Just a shout out into the vortex: if you don’t like a franchise, a book/movie series, a TV show, a movie, etc. IT’S OKAY! But here’s my issue; if you don’t like a certain thing then please stop identifying yourself as a fan and then posting online about how awful the thing you claim to be a fan of is. It’s kind of annoying to us real fans. You’re welcome to be be here, but if you don’t like it you’re free to leave as well. There’s no need for you to suck the joy out of others’ enjoyment in something. In fact, it’s not nice! Aren’t we supposed to be one of the groups of people trying to put an end to “not being nice”? Just stop it! Think before you post!
