Regularly I get bullied for my complete obession with red. Don't know why that happens. Probably because people are mean an jealous of me and my favorite color.
(he/him, it/its)
Hello hello, I've realized i should probably like introduce myself in some way. My name is usually online Confused, most times with a few underscores. But I really just go by Con.
Im a college student studying civil engineering and also my interests change VERY incredibly fast. I don't really ever stop being interested in smt fully though! So if there is any content you came to my blog for and want to chat with me about feel free!!
Currently Im fasinated by William Wisp! From jrwi prime defenders #dead emo boys or sometjing totally a character troupe im normal about all the time.
Ive been recently using #sketches and drawings and pieces or something. I have fogotten to do this again. As an art tag and i will link it here when i get home from work. However that. Is really not all the art ive posted on here, I just figured I shouldm... actually tag my art.
could people that literally do not even fucking go here PLEASE stop trying to start shit in the sbk tags. we are not being productive by repeatedly bringing up the same three discourse points about the same three people without any fucking context. you are not going to change anyone's mind, you are not making this a more welcoming space, you are not opening the floor to further discussion, you are intentionally being incendiary towards a community you are not a part of and it shows.
we are so serious when we say this. if you are jumping into discourse NOW and you weren't talking about the shituation that the sbk fandom experienced all the way back in january that caused a lot of these very same growing rifts, we are going to assume you were part of that fucking problem. if you care more about calling out the beliefs of creators now than you do their responses to an earlier issue of blatant fucking transmisogyny then we do not believe for a second that you are approaching this in even remotely good faith.
HI IM SO SORRY IT TOOK SO LONG TO GET AROUND TO THIS 💔 Asking for my Vylad headcanons is like giving me a small kitten (I love cats). Though my blog does not look dedicated to him, I am definitely a huge Vylad fan. My little guy who I have so much written about and drawn him plenty and for some reason never post. I should do that. But that’s besides the point—headcanons!!
MCD
Him and Travis are besties in my heart and it reaches past mystreet into mcd. Travis finds Vylad quite interesting, and anything about him that could be “weird” is something Travis quite enjoys about him. Vylad likes Travis because he finds his energy to actually be pleasant. They find comfort in their differences from everyone else in each other. Very much a “yapper” and “listener” sort of relationship where Travis will excitedly talk to Vylad about anything and he will listen and engage in his Vylad ways
Surrounding Vylad and talking—in terms of the season two mcd cast, he is definitely more talkative towards Aphmau and Laurance initially than anyone else. Though most conversations with him where is he more talkative happen in private rather than in large groups
He does have quite a fondness towards children, though he is quite anxious about caring for them (though he is quite successful with it). And kids seem to like him in return. Levin was quite comfortable with Vylad as a baby in s1 when he took care of Levin in the gap between Matilda giving him up to being adopted by Aphmau. This attribute does stick around after the time skip too
He is quite bad at sleeping and has been since he was a child. Combination of insomnia, nightmares, and unfortunate circumstances in terms of location. When he was little he would go to his mom or to Garroth who would make him feel safe enough to sleep. The best sleep he got in the nether was when Laurance was in the cell next to him and wouldn’t stop talking lol (not from disinterest but because it was calming). But the best night sleep of his adult life was a little after he met Hyria and fell asleep in her house
When all the Ro’meave boys were little, they used to play hide and seek a lot. Vylad would be quite good at hiding, but would get really sad when neither of his brothers were able to find him. So he started hiding in more obvious places so that they would see him better. It worked, and though he would lose, he felt much happier than when he would “win”
Mystreet
His college roommate was Travis. Aphmau would often stop by their dorm to hang out there a lot. Especially movie nights. In the same vein as that, they had a shared plushie cat that they talked as if it was a real cat. The RA had to come in and check their room once for an animal and they had to explain that it was this stuffed cat they shared custody of
One of the reasons he travels so frequently is because he does research. Sure he’s also a photographer and also picks up random little side gigs, but he primarily goes to random places to learn. Also leads him to having a crazy amount of stories and connections to people
Him and Cadenza are besties in my heart. By proxy he is close to the Zvahls in general. While this is definitely in part because I want my primarily off screen favorites to be friends, I also just think they’d get along. He’s also friends with Katelyn’s little brother Kacey
He has a very active text thread with the Not Alone Buddies. He is not a big group chat guy, but he does love this one. It has survived every era
He loves Halloween. He wears incredibly detailed costumes of really obscure things every year. He’s lucky if anyone sees him and actually knows what he is supposed to be without explaining it (and he gets really excited when it does happen). It also becomes a game for other people to try and guess what he is
He is actually pretty good at art! Prefers drawing and painting compared to other mediums, but has dabbled a lot. Draws a lot while traveling, so has gotten really good at live studies. Draws a lot of plants (because he loves them) and architecture especially, but can do people too
You can always invent potentional dynamics in your head this is free and good to do.
Vylavis is something I've been thinking about in a "Travis as Enki's reincarnation and Enki representing knowledge and academia." Vs Vylad as as secrets and the unknown, I think they could be v fun.
dear everyone on tumblr who needs to host images elsewhere (e.g. to embed on ao3 etc), please give squidge a go!! it's free, it's nonprofit and it's geared towards fandom so nsfw images won't get deleted!! and please stop using imgur if you can because they blocked the uk rather than acquiesce to the fucking internet safety laws, which I can't really hold against em but it does mean all imgur pictures just show up as big purple boxes now
Not only is Squidge still around, it's expanded and grown! It is still run by the same guy, though now it's a nonprofit with a board and everything, and while they maintain all the old squidge sites as static archives, they have a new multifandom archive using the AO3 code at squidgeworld.org. They also host podfics and fanart.
For those younguns in the crowd, back in the day erotic fanworks--especially slash--was not welcome very many places. Walter was willing to host it, and has been a haven for NSFW fanworks since 1994. The various archives and so on hosted at squidge.org were never very large, compared to lots of other archives, but they were a necessary part of the fannish ecosystem, and I'm really glad that there is now a structure in place to keep the whole system running beyond just "Walter's a great guy willing to donate lots of time and money." Walter is a great guy! but like. it's good to have other people to help out and keep things going in the long run.

everyone loves to hate terfs until they realise that it actually entails rejecting bioessentialism entirely and then suddenly you’re “taking things too seriously” and you “don’t have a sense of humour” like i’m sorry but saying protect the dolls doesn’t make you immune to terfism it has seeped into every corner of mainstream feminism and unless you’re actively searching it out and checking your own biases you will always be at risk of sharing a space with terfs
“Only women can—” nope. “But all men—” nah. “The divine femininity of—” gonna stop you right there. “Everyone born ama—” if you finish that sentence I’ll kill you. “Men don’t experience—” you’re wrong. “Gender isn’t real but sex is imm—” *loud incorrect buzzer*
It also goes without saying that bioessentialism inherently can’t be trans inclusive no matter how hard you try. “All men including trans men—” probably not. “This is only a woman’s issue—” is it really? “Afabs only—” why? “All trans men are like—” what? what are they like? finish the sentence i dare you.
I feel like simply calling JK Rowling a transphobe isn't strong enough anymore. Like. This is not your grandpa calling you by your deadname at a restaurant kind of transphobic. This is her wanting to eradicate all trans people (with an extra special hatred towards trans women specifically). This is her trying just that by personally funding transphobic hate groups with millions to push around laws in the UK. It is not hyperbolic to call her a dangerous, genocidal maniac.
It's not about cancelling a problematic writer. It's about literally trying to save lives by denying her as much money and power as possible.
hi transfems. love you. I hope everyone is kinder to you as time goes on. I hope people scrutinise you less. I hope people listen to you more. I hope people just let you live your lives. trust that I am by your side okauy? we're in this together. I won't ever forget it and I hope you won't either. everybody else I love you too. let's be there for each other.
do all vylad fans invent an insane amount of lore for (mystreet) him to the point where they may as well be your oc since jesson wants to give him NOTHING. or is that just me.
