Not that I don't like you guys or anything but I can't even look at my normal main tag without people spreading absolutely false rhetoric and while I will always stand up for myself because I'm allowed that, I think my mere presence alone here has caused too much drama and I don't want Kitty or Bannerfall or POW to be affected by this as you guys absolutely should be allowed to fandom in peace <3 For my own sanity, and to not trigger any more anxiety over this, I'll be halting my time here! Short and sweet it was but even in efforts to clarify, and apologize, I think I would have to tell my whole life story for people to understand and even then I think they would still say things which aren't true. I love and appreciate you all, especially those who aimed to educate me and help me understand yalls area! Please keep enjoying Kitty and any of my other characters however you like! :) (also please for the sake of every human being on the planet... just learn some basic respect. people are not your playthings and their 'toys' were theirs to begin with and your actions do affect others whether you like it or not. and the excuse that 'this is just how it is' shows such a lack of empathy. please continue to have an open heart, mind, and always be looking to better yourselves.)

thats the last ill speak on the matter as ive supplied a tag for any content you wish to hide from me. if you still want to believe that i do things maliciously, please block me. my actions speak louder than my words and i do not need to prove to anon's where my stances lie. all of my friends, commissioners, and loved ones know that i dont discriminate against them and thats all that matters to me <3 you are loved no matter what and i hope you all know that !!

[lemonthyne]

Just wanted to say I think the ask calling you fatphobic is taking a very cynical and bad faith reading to your boundary there, I understand that there's a lot of nuance to the topic and appreciate you taking the time to point that out.

While I think separating out tags for content people want you to see and those they don't want you to see is a really terrific idea (and makes it clear how people can interact with you vs the fanspace), I was curious as to why NSFW specifically isn't okay to be in the space for things you don't want to see?

(Genuine question, I hope this doesn't come across as rude or accusatory! It isn't intended to be at all, and I do wish you well!)

to answer that plainly and to be very very honest and open about my experiences as a person because that seems to be a necessity here: i have, since in middle school, been objectified by men and have been sexually harassed throughout life. since my smp characters are an extension of me, i get uncomfy with the idea of people drawing them sexualized (as their proportions are quite similar to mine). i know some of the designs can be very showy with skin, that doesnt mean i immediately am okay with nsfw content but i understand that i cannot stop people from making such content. its just something i make very known that i dont like thats all!

[lemonthyne]

no matter what, your "boundaries" about your CHARACTERS are inherently fatphobic, and that's what people are upset about.

Yes I fear a lot of people's reactions are based in this and I want to make it absolutely clear NONE of my intentions were to come across as being fatphobic. I do not support or condone discrimination of individuals based on their weight and I absolutely do not want ANYONE in my community who thinks thats okay or acceptable. Kitty can be fat, Missy can be fat, Louis can be fat, and any other SMP character I make CAN be fat. Just because I have a 'disconnect' when I see depiction of my characters being different to how I have designed them doesn't mean: 1. that people cannot view themselves in my characters or have headcanons of my characters 2. that I think its disgusting 3. that i immediately devalue people's thoughts I will say this once and thats it. I don't agree with fatphobic rhetoric and I especially dont agree with people trying to police others in the fandom space because of my boundaries. I don't want people speaking for me and I absolutely should be the only one who is clarifying things such as this.

DNI TAG: #lemonthyne dni (to keep it simple!)

Why should I use it?

If you are posting fanwork that you are too shy for me to see, would be nervous if I liked/reblogged it.

You should not use it to hide breaking the boundary of posting NSFW content of my characters.

You may use it to post fanwork which depicts my character in other such ways that deviates from the original design, but I will not see said work on my feed (if not tagged) and get emotionally, real life, upset at it if I see it.

What Are Your Boundaries Actually?

In the simplest way possible: my boundaries are to educate people who care to not make content which may end up stepping on my toes if they want me to see their fanwork.

If you do not care or are making content for yourself and your fellow fandom-mates, I will not be shocked nor surprised. It is expected that people will do as they wish with what they wish. My feelings towards this will never truly matter as people have free will. (I have now clarified a DNI tag for those who wish to respect my feelings of not wanting to see potential boundary-breaking content on my feed!) I appreciate so so much that my characters can be loved to a point where people mirror themselves in them. That is OKAY!

"Why is XYZ okay but XYZ not?"

Unfortunately people's wishes and whims are not easy to understand and my personal preferences on stuff is often times going to be way more complex and complicated and have deeper roots in personal experiences and my own history with dealing with stuff (social perception of my body, general anxiety, self doubt and self esteem issues, issues with being sexually harassed, etc). I do not need to go into deal but I will always try to clarify others confusion! It should be known that as long as its not NSFW content chances are it really isnt that big of a deal to me if i see it in passing :)

Thanks for reading! Hope this helps ^_^

[lemonthyne]

If you're getting a lot of hateful asks you could disable anonymous asks. Won't completely fix the issue obviously but it'll help.

i appreciate the suggestion ! i dont think i should take away peoples anonymity because they are allowed that ^_^ i just am simply asking for people to take it slow before jumping to hateful conclusions or making assumptions about my feelings towards my fandom and peoples connections to my characters... but i am also just asking for some basic levels of respect as well and that street goes both ways and i totally understand and am open to admitting if i have failed to show respect to the other side </3

[lemonthyne]

Genuine Question: Would you rather I do not answer your questions truthfully, with my own feelings in mind as well as the fandom? I don't know if it is worth asking the questions if you rather wouldn't have an answer? If a DNI tag is the catch-all solution to the teething issues, then I understand and I'm open to consider methods which fit tumblr better.

[lemonthyne]

I know a lot of you are upset about my clarification on boundaries and my attempts to have some connection with my fandom by conversing with you openly about my feelings and thoughts, but I understand now that the environment here varies a lot and while I may want to have a foot in the door of being involved, it may be better that I do not involve myself as deeply as I had imagined! I apologize for any hurt feelings or if I have stepped on any toes because of my answers to very valid questions, was not my goal and I want to make it clear that I do not go out of my way to be hurtful or take away people's agency in a fandom space. I am very thankful for all of the support I receive! And even if I do feel a disconnect with fanworks that are made or don't agree with someone's view on my character's, does not mean I don't recognize that you clearly care about my creations very deeply! I will never denounce that and I, again, appreciate it very much! I won't respond to any hateful inbox messages and if it gets worse I will just remove them entirely but I'd appreciate education over antagonizing... I haven't used tumblr in a long time, and I certainly wasn't a CC then.

hey there! why no changing your characters weight?

as mentioned in my previous post, my smp characters mirror me *a lot* and while i have absolutely no quarrels with anyone headcanoning my characters being a different weight, proportions, and other biological changes, i feel a disconnect when i see fanart representing them differently to the design i made its on a similar vein as when creators see their character's being shipped with the same sex/gender identity when they themselves are straight and/or view their characters as straight as well ... not that anyone has an issue with people viewing the characters differently than how we originally made them to be, its just that disconnect that happens where people may feel a bit uncomfortable with a character that mirrors parts of them in some way get changed ! its also why i really really am uncomfortable with NSFW content being made of my characters; they are quite similar to me and while i do play different personalities, they still feel like me and i cannot shake that when i look at stuff that is made as fan content truth be told with you ! hopefully this answers your question (and probably some underlining concerns)!

[lemonthyne]

hey, I saw on your boundaries sheet that you say "only height" for drawing your characters with different body types. By that do you mean body weight or something else?

means weight, proportions, biological stuff as well ! that one boundary i wont be fussy about if i see it being "broken" its more so to not lose the essence of the character design when i see fanart etc.

if a characters design is changed quite drastically its hard to see at a glance that it is XYZ character; not that that is breaking a high law or anything LOL i just take a lot of pride in character designing and these 'characters' are often mirrored from me a lot so theres an extra level to it if that makes sense ? :)

[lemonthyne]

Hii! I just wanted to know your stance on people drawing their PowCreations oc with your characters? Like a BF! Rogue oc with Kitty! Obviously not in a romantic way or anything, just them like, hanging out or smth!

Thank you!

totally okay !!! go have fun !!

I finally got to watching your first Bannerfall VOD today, it was my first time ever watching your content and my goodness was i impressed.

First off, I’d love to talk about your cinematic backstory of Kitty, I absolutely loved it, and even went back to watch it again. The builds are lovely, voice acting astonishing and the details make me want to SCREAM. As a neurodivergent goober, and also as a writer I’ve come to appreciate details.

Obviously, as you mentioned in the VOD, the skin colour armour, the redstone in the shelf, it’s all so well thought out. I noticed something dripping from the drip stone, which was an orange colour, so I assume lava? Not sure, but if it was lava, even if not intentional, it makes such an amazing metaphor about the possibility of the burning pain of transforming or even just the mental pain she would have to go through as this happened.

”The first emotion I felt was shame,” is such a beautiful quote, especially because of how real this is, especially in women/afab people, and their history. It’s feels somewhat empowering in a way, because it voices our everyday struggles as women/afabs.

I would love to continue yapping about the cinematic, but I’d also love to get to the rest of the content teehee.

of course, we have the silly’s. Your interactions with Owen were so funny to watch and I especially loved when he was attempting to teach you the game. The irony of you winning was even funnier.

I know you didn’t interact with people that much, but every time you did was so fun to watch, and even when you weren’t and you were just sneaking around i found myself engaged the whole time, when I usually can’t sit and watch something for longer than 10 minutes.

Your characters abilities also are so fun, but also make so much sense, and are very cool mechanics, especially the silent footsteps, (although I did find myself going crazy, always thinking my headphones disconnected when there was no sound,) as well as the “mouses.”

The soggy kitty counter was fun, still wondering how you managed to fall in 28 times lmao and also just the silly things you’d say, like speaking in third person, calling Owen big kitty, etc.

I’m sorry about yapping SO MUCH and the fact it’s all so jumbled, I just had so much to say lol. I can’t wait to continue watching your POV of Bannerfall and to see how it plays out :)

ABSOLUTELY DONT APOLOGIZE FOR YAPPING !!!!!!! this is so so cool i really am an analyser at heart and this all up my alley

im super glad you enjoyed Kitty so far and were able to enjoy the moments even when i wasnt interacting with anyone n just being sneaky!! and to answer your question about the dripping, yes in minecraft that is infact lava (it was the closest color to the resin i had on the floor ! in my head while building it i wanted it to be sort of like a manifestation of magic itself or a conductor or something... ! some sort of magic essence which makes the wizard's powers manifest stronger ? it also just added some visual interest when taking the shots :) but i like your interpretation of it and i totally love any time when someone will make their own interpretations of my creations ! it feels special and it kind of is a window to someones soul sometimes ahha idk its so ! human ! to do ... very fun very cool !!! tysm for sending me this ask i really enjoyed reading it and to anyone else who has an analysis totally feel free to send in an inbox OR make a post (or a google doc link if ur # serious about it HAHA); either way im sure ill see it at some point :)

[lemonthyne]

I think the dni tag is more for people who want to post about stuff that may make you uncomfortable, like criticisms and the such. People don't want to upset you, but naturally as people do, they want to talk about disagreements with character choices and stuff.

Not forcing you to make a tag like that! Just wanting to clarify the ask!

/gen /neu /info

is this a normal thing on tumblr because its not a thing over on twitter (mostly bc private accounts exist) ? i think usually people just dont tag or mention the name over there

i mean i dont mind if people have disagreements over my character(s) LOL if its anything serious id rather they discuss it in a scenario where i could weigh in my thoughts if need be but ultimately people are allowed their own thoughts n feelings

the normalization 😓 of not respectfully being able to get across feelings in an analytical sense is frustrating and again, understand the purpose of wanting a dni tag, i still dont think its ultimately a healthy thing to go with for my community specifically !

i think id end up getting anxious over what people could be saying behind the tag ive blocked and it would just make me want to leave tumblr to be completely honest with you LOL id rather discussions just be made to be respectful yet allowing opinion to be clear

[lemonthyne]

hello! i’ve really been enjoying the bannerfall streams and kitty is a very very interesting character so i must ask…. do you have a playlist for him? or just any music you think suits their character… :]

its currently still a wip but here is the songs ive added so far:

[lemonthyne]

Hello !

I was just wondering if it was possible for a "Lemonthyne dni" tag to be made? It's just that some people might be embarrassed or intimated of you randomly stumbling upon their art/writing! It's basically just a tag that you filter out.

I was also curious if you had posted your boundaries anywhere or had a made boundaries card for fanart, writing etc etc.

Thank you :D

I think personally I'd feel quite gutted if you wanted me to specifically not see any lovingly made fan work of creations I've put a lot of love in and respectfully ask if this not be a tag that is made TT_TT I want to support people and you shouldn't feel embarrassed or intimated !!! I am just a little guy like you; I've spent all of my youth up to even now, at 24, being a fandom dweller... reading fics and drawing fanart myself! I have met people in person who I have drawn an embarrassing amount of fanart of before! Never feel shame for your support! I totally respect the wishes but I would hate to feel ostracized in my own community that has been fostered dkasdjkasjk I care a lot about the fan community and I'm one in the same General Boundaries Kitty's Character Boundaries

(note: If a character of mine has mentioned boundaries that go against the general smp character boundaries list, please always listen to the character specific boundaries over the general ones as they change depending on the character!)

Thank you so much for the ask and I'm sorry if my refusal does not satisfy :C

Hello 👋,

I want to make pirates smp skins for an au, is it alright to use the ones you’ve already made as a base? Or should I start from scratch?

i am unsure which skins you are referring to... if its any of the pirates smp cast or npc skins, those were commissioned by Pow Creations and therefore you do not have legal ownership or rights to the assets (png files) of the skins. if its any of the skins i have put up for sale on my ko-fi, those are allowed to be edited. any skins ive made which are for my own personal use are my skins and i do not condone the use of using them for edits. you may take inspiration but do not 1 to 1 copy or take parts of my work and paste it onto other skins ! you would do better to benefit your growing creative mind to try and do a skin by scratch <3 i use irl references and translate them as closely as possible to the pixel ratio minecraft uses for its character models. it is not easy, but its very rewarding to put in the effort myself and see the fruits of my labor ! i used to be really bad at skins but im quite proud of what ive done now and i think anyone can get to the level i have achieved with passion, commitment, and self-respect in your abilities ! :)
