Hey fellow gays! Happy pride month!!!!

Story time:

Im an almost 25 year old recent college grad who is an artist, a pagan, a huge nerd about musicals, and, unrelatedly, is trans. I've known this about myself for a decade now (shout out to the ten year old TDOV post that accidentally outed me to my parents just a few weeks after I myself found out) and its been an uphill journey ever since.

I wouldn't trade my life experiences for anything, not after the people I've met and the things that did go right. But because I live in Texas, because my parents are who they are, and because I was financially reliant on them up until recently, I haven't been allowed to do anything to transition physically or legally.

Now I'm about to start a new chapter of my life, moving in with my partner and their supportive parents, turn 25 (this Saturday, June 28th! Anniversary of Stonewall, I might add) and work full time to make my transition goals a reality. I'm so excited that after 10 long years this process can finally begin in earnest.

If you have the funds to spare, please consider donating to my top surgery fund. My chest has always been disproportionately huge, and directly contributes to back pain, struggles to breathe, and is a not an inconsequential factor in the eating disorder I've had since the age of 12. Getting these J cups off my chest will be like getting a new lease on life!

Thank you so much for reading, and if you can't donate, please consider reblogging! Every share helps, every dollar helps, every person who reads my story and remembers that there are trans people in Texas just trying to thrive, that helps too.

Hi all! My final project for college was this labor of love I spent about a year on. It's inspired by The Ninth Hour (https://www.ninthhourmusical.com/) which is criminally underrated.

Basically, it's a four minute long animated storyboard following Grendel post his final fight with Beowulf. I put a lot of work into it, and so please enjoy!

Drew these as a thanks to my partner and the DM of the campaign we've been playing for about a year! It came to an end recently, and I wanted to do a big project for it. So these are drawings from that! Our four player characters, our ship, and then the five of us gathered around the table ready to play. Hope yall enjoy!

[apollo-elias]

I drew this of myself and my partner on their birthday! We enjoy playing Night in the Woods together, so I figured drawing this would be a perfect present for her! He really enjoyed it!

they probably cant love me back in a human or even mammalian sense, but my goldfish with their smooth pea-sized brain have learned to trust that i will make them better when they are sick. i feel like crying about this often

[cantabilechaos]

Maybe Princess the tarantula never had anything resembling what we as humans know as emotions, but she still came out of her burrow and up to the glass when we’d talk to her and used to stare at the drawing I’d tape to her terrarium. Maybe she couldn’t even comprehend what we were, but she knew we were there to take care of her. And even if she never showed that sort of curiosity or trust we’d still love her.

[gay-jesus-probably]

Idk if Munchie the praying mantis felt love for me, but I do know he trusted me enough to climb onto my hand when offered and was comfortable with allowing me to carry him places despite me being absolutely massive in comparison to him. So that's close enough in my book.

[raygirlramblings]

This also applies to wild animals/birds you might encounter in your garden. The feral city pigeon with the distinct white spot on his head will never love me, and will probably never be brave enough to eat from my hand. But I don't feed him in the hope of making him love me. I feed him because I love seeing him, doing his little spiny walks on my balcony, cooing up a storm, and not flying away immediately when I open the balcony door to bring him some seed. His presence brings joy to my heart, and I'm blessed to see him every day.

I'm not naïve enough to believe an animal can love me the same way a human can, but to know it trusts me enough to feel safe in my presence is an honour I strive to maintain as a sentient human.

My tortoise who is older than me just ran up to me when I was bringing her lettuce. Head and forelegs as high off the ground as possible looking at me like :-} I don’t know if she loves me but she recognizes me as the source of food and she lets me scratch her head

[apollo-elias]

Every few years, I redraw Thalia Grace because shes so cool and also a good parameter to see my growth as an artist. Well, the 21st just passed, which is her birthday and also when I try to have the drawing done by, so here we are! My 2023 Thalia Grace interpretation, followed by my previous iterations from as early as 2007 :)

Relistening to stolen century hurts every time. Idk what kind of magic griffin weaved into it, but no matter how many times I relisten it still hits just as hard. Like, huh, it's all about love, isn't it? It's about trying your best, about trying to protect your family, about fucking up and trying to fix it. It's about "I love you" and "I'm sorry" and "it'll be harder if you remember me" and "you die, but it's okay because you know they made it". It's about starting again and again, about questioning your morals, about doing your best, about learning to lean on people, about having that taken away from you. Its about feeling love and trust and pain without knowing their target. That's life, isn't it? I need to lie down.

[apollo-elias]

I haven’t posted art on here much lately, but I was served @literallyjusttoa ‘s headcanons and fanart (love the Polldona, art of that likely coming soon) and I knew I had to share my AU of Apollo, Dionysus, and Hermes being a post civil war traveling Vaudeville troupe. This AU has been a pillar of my mental health this past semester in university, so I sincerely hope anyone out there enjoys them as much as I enjoyed drawing them.

Dynamic:

Apollo is a classically trained ballerina from Paris who flees to the US to trans his gender and start a new life. Guarded, hesitant to trust, passionate about all things art and music. Apollo writes the scripts and performs the musical accompaniment during shows. Takes performance and himself incredibly seriously.

Dionysus is a washed up stage magician turned front-man of the show. He always has a giant suitcase bursting to the seams with costumes and disguises, to the point where nobody is really certain that his day to day appearance is what he even actually looks like. He’s charismatic, reckless, bombastic, and the crowd loves him. Also is usually drunk.

Hermes is the behind the scenes man, handling all the business transactions and transportation. Has a history of being a snake-oil salesman, so he knows how to con a whole town and be two states away before they even realize. He’s a gentle giant, speaks deliberately, and almost always comes off to people as unmistakably trustworthy. Gives surprisingly good advice.
