My life has been taken over by Final Fantasy XV, and I’ve taken to written some fanfiction for it. I think I’ll post a link for it here on tumblr, because people will appreciate it, I think.

Though I think I’ll start a side blog for the occasion, because I think I’ll be doing more fanfiction.

@sufferforgrace Point me in the direction of good copies of them, and yeah, I could! Actually, any manga panels/pages to want to see in color, I'll do it. Just gimme what you want and I can make it happen. <3

My new hair as of this last week or so. It's been fun :D

Today I’ve written inherent evil, inherent good, someone who doesn’t believe in anything but the grey area between, and another seeking someone who shares a rare gift just like him.

The spectrum I write astonishes me sometimes.

Being told “Never mind, I will tell you later” is number one annoying pet peeve of mine. Every D/deaf and hard of hearing’s mind blowing and annoying phase.

[andreashettle]

Hearing people, please grasp this.  Maybe to you, “Never mind” or “It wasn’t important, forget it” is an ordinary thing that hearing people actually say to each other on occasion without it being a big deal.  For hearing people.  (I mean, when said in response to someone saying, “I missed what you said, please say that again.”)  Personally I have a hard time conceiving of how this behavior can be seen as okay by anyone, but this is what I’ve been told, so fine, I’ll buy it.

But what you need to understand is this: deaf people always have to deal with hearing people, all the time, every single day, who just don’t want to have to deal with us and our communication access needs.  We encounter hearing people who act hostile when we ask them to please repeat themselves or write things down.  We encounter hearing people who seem pathologically incapable of grasping the concept that sometimes lip reading just isn’t going to work and yes they really will need to write it down before I have any hope of understanding it.  We encounter hearing people who avoid us like the plague at social events because they don’t want the nuisance of having to repeat themselves all the time or write things down.  This means that 99 percent of the time when we are told, “Never mind”, what it really means is, “Eff you, I don’t want to have to deal with you.”

So when you say, “Never mind,” or “I’ll tell you later” (Will you really remember? Most hearing people don’t.) or, “Forget it”?  We have absolutely no way to tell apart a hearing person who says this because they can’t be bothered with us and a hearing person who has other motivations.  

If you want us to recognize that you’re really, truly not intending to give us the brush off, then the solution is simple.  Don’t give us the brush off.  Just repeat what you said, or just write it down.  Because anything else is giving us the brush off whether that’s what you intended or not.  Even if it would never be seen as a “brush off” by other hearing people.  Saying “never mind” doesn’t have the same meaning to deaf people as it does to hearing people and no amount of trying to explain the perspective of hearing people is going to erase the long and painful history that every deaf and hard of hearing person (and probably also, people with auditory processing disorder) has with that awful phrase, “Never mind.”

Also?  It can be scary to have to ask hearing people to repeat themselves, precisely because we so often encounter negative reactions.  Even when I’m not scared, per se, it is still exhausting every time I ask because I still have to fight really hard to suppress the natural and instinctive tendency to “social bluff” my way through the interaction.  When hearing people keep saying, “Never mind”, even if you think you didn’t mean anything by it, it just makes it harder to ask people to repeat the next time I need to do it.  So, just please don’t.

quote from The Blacklist.

[dreamsofdonxts]

I don’t always remember my dreams. But when I do, they tend to stick with me and they’re often very vivid. Also, they tend to happen more than once.

A lot of them are often anime related, and are short little bits, mostly they don’t make much sense or they’re silly.

But the FMA ones I have are short and usually very sad.

The one that’s on my mind right now is one where I am some nameless person in Amestris, but I have full knowledge of the FMA manga/anime. 

And I meet Izumi. And all I can do is just cry. I don’t know why, but I assume its because of the shit she’s been through. I’d hug her if given the chance. Just. -sigh-

i don’t usually post shit like this on here but can we just be clear on one thing:

roleplayers are not their characters.

condemning a roleplayer for writing an evil character would be like condemning fantasy authors for writing villains into their novels. it’s downright silly. most people have a healthy sense of what’s real and not real, what’s fiction and nonfiction, and if someone is writing a character who’s raped, murdered, whatever, that shouldn’t reflect on the writer themselves. particularly because a lot of the writers penning these characters are victims themselves. i personally use my writing as a way to cope with things i’ve been through, and sometimes that involves writing characters who fantasize about things like rape, or characters who have abused their loved ones. i’m a rape survivor, i’m an abuse survivor, and because of this, i always, always make sure to make it clear that my characters are in the wrong.

vladimir nabokov wrote lolita not as an endorsement of child abuse, and certainly not an endorsement of pedophilia. the author himself described humbert, the 40-year-old protagonist who became obsessed and infatuated with 12-year-old dolores, as a cruel wretch and a hateful man. the novel’s still incredibly controversial, but the writer makes it clear that we aren’t supposed to sympathize with humbert, and we’re not supposed to sexualize dolores, who’s still just a child.

the same should be said in the roleplay community. if someone is writing a character who is a rapist or abuser, that doesn’t make the writer a rapist or abuser themselves. you don’t know what they’ve gone through, you don’t know what their personal history is. if all else fails, just ask why they chose to write such a dark character – more often than not, i’ve found that most roleplayers are more than happy to discuss their choices. and a good portion of the time, they don’t romanticize or glorify the things their character does.

it’s silly and immature to condemn a writer for writing on problematic subjects. if the writer is perfectly aware of the wrongness of the character’s actions, if they’ve expressly said they don’t condone it, then why not just leave them alone?
