☆ Hi! I'm Rae, I'm 25 years old and I've been self shipping ever since I was really young but have been in the community for almost 5 years!
☆ I go by any pronouns as well! (She/They/He)
☆ Trying to recover from a bad mental health episode so reblogs will be slow and a bit odd (6/20)
☆I'm very quiet in the community and kinda stay in my little bubble, so sorry about that! This also results in spam reblogs sometimes
☆As a disclaimer, I do curse and use all caps a lot without warning so be careful if you're sensitive to those things.
☆Follows and likes come from my main blog @milkthebunny !
☆I'm currently watching One Piece, Yakuza playthroughs, and reading Transformers: Lost Light so no spoilers please! (Currently for OP: episode 491) (Currently for Yakuza: 0) (Windblade: Volume 1)
F/O Info
☆While I have a lot of f/os, I'm completely okay with sharing all of them! Please feel free to gush about them to me or even gush to me about f/os we don't share 💗
☆Here is my carrd that includes my f/o lists and DNI information
It's an about me card and f/o list
☆I also have platonic and familial f/os! Here are their tags:
Straw Hat Pirate Crew (Straw Buddies 🦁) (Platonic)
Yachiru Kusajishi (🍭 Yachiru) (Familial-Daughter)
Lost Light Crew (💫Lost Light💫) (Platonic)
The Scavengers (🎯Aboard the WAP🔫) (Queer-platonic)
☆My queue tag: Queue Time!
Other Info
☆Disclaimer: I am critical about everything I watch and read. This includes creators, characters, illustrators, VAs, etc. Most of time I will be willing to talk about these things but there are days where I will not be in the mood so please ask first if you want to converse.
☆Also, if I reblog, follow or like something from someone unsavory, please let me know! I try to stay aware about these things but sometimes I will miss and I have slightly jittery hands so I will accidentally like things and will not notice til later. So please tell me if there's something wrong!
☆Further Explanation on the villain f/o section of my carrd: When I say "villain" and "morally gray" f/os, I do not mean characters that are p*dos, n*zis, r*pists, etc. With characters like Jason from Friday the 13th or Professor Venomous, there is still an air of disbelief with their actions and an understanding that their actions are fictional and if they were to happen irl, they would be taken seriously.
However, the things I listed above are awful, traumarizing events that victims are blamed and even ridiculed for. Even so, I will never understand how one can see a character openly admit to assaulting someone, etc and go "Yeah, I'm gonna kiss that". So no, if any of your f/os fit that criteria, please leave me be or even block my account.
☆If you're uncomfortable sharing an f/o with a mutual of mine, just know that I don't do the '___don't look' tag. I know a lot of people are uncomfortable and get hurt when their stuff gets tagged like that so, I will always tag shared f/os as "Character x Mutual" or "Mutual x Character". So you have a constant tag you can block for the future!
Imagine your f/o letting you dress them up/ accessorize them!
Do you ever see your f/o and wonder what they would look like with cute hair clips in, or how they would react to you wrapping your sweater around their waist? Well, picture it now!
Maybe their personal style is far off from yours, and they may even feel a bit strange in whatever you put them in, but they'll be patient, since you enjoy bonding in this way.
If you have similar taste, imagine them eagerly looking through your collection/closet and even asking to try your things on! They may even return the favor and give you pieces of theirs later.
I wonder though, will they return the items to you, or will they secretly keep it for themself, a little piece of you they can look at fondly?
Hey, your f/o doesn't think less of you because you can't work because of your disability. They don't think you're lazy or a mooch because you use government assistance like SSI or LCWRA. They don't expect you to "compensate" for your time at home while they're at work by doing errands and chores ; they know you're disabled and don't have to be productive to be worthwhile as a person. Your validity isn't measure by your capital output and they're a firm believer in that.
Never feel ashamed about not working because your f/o surely isn't. They're proud of you for resting and taking care of yourself. That's all they could ever ask of you.
To all the disabled selfshippers, your f/o(s) love you so much. Not despite your disabilities. The love the whole of you.
Even on your bad days.
Even when you're flared up.
Even when your pain leaves your irritable.
Even when all you can do is sleep.
Even when they have to shoulder the majority of tasks around the house.
Even when they have to help you shower or feed yourself.
You are not a burden to them. Never. They couldn't fathom having such a train of thought. Because you are so much more than the bad that disability brings.
The smile on your face when you can finally leave the house is what keeps them around.
Your laugh when the pain meds finally kick in is why they're with you.
The joy you radiate when you two decorate your mobility aids is why they can't leave your side.
And even when the bad outweighs the good, they adore you so terribly.
Never feel ashamed. Never feel like a burden. Never feel like you're too much. You are strong and you, above all else, are loved.
A little Ana/Ticket Taker thing since I finally finished his design and his birthday is tomorrow so we are celebrating early ✨
And I really wanted to play around with visuals of his mirror maze and my brains started tingling from the idea of his tent having black light lighting in it
Sunny Lime doodle dump ft. some things I did not make rebloggable before. Bugs on my screen, if you will
^ I'd love to do a second take on the room layout (and maaaaybe make it look less like a trash dump) because I was scribbling and winging it, but I still enjoy some of the details I put in it, so here you go lol
Your f/o doesn't judge you for getting upset or startled by loud noises. They understand that this time of the year can be rough for you and they're willing to do whatever they need to make sure you're comfortable and safe!
If you enjoy watching the fireworks, but are upset by the sounds, your f/o will get you something soft and sturdy to muffle out the explosions. That way you can enjoy all the beautiful colors with no discomfort or disturbance!
If you'd rather just avoid fireworks in general, your f/o is more than happy to fetch both of you some noise cancelling headphones so you can listen to some of your favorite songs instead! They'll also make sure the doors and windows are closed, so only the smallest amount of noise comes through
If you decide to power through it, they won't force you to change your mind, but they'll make sure you can have some headache medication if things become hard to handle. They'll also welcome you to hold on to them whenever you need comfort and reassurance!
Your f/o loves and cares about you, more than anything else in the world! Your well-being and safety will always be their number one priority. They would never judge you for needing some extra care and attention during this time of the year, taking care of you brings them indescribable happiness!
f/o helping you tie or hook your swimsuit, f/o helping you apply sunscreen, f/o cutting and feeding you fruit, f/o fanning you so you don’t get overheated, f/o & you having fun, cooling down in some body of water, f/o & you sharing a cold dessert, hurriedly, before it melts, f/o & you playing with sparklers, f/o & you in the summertime <3
it's okay to have no desire to interact with your partner's source's fandom
it's okay if seeing fans of your partner, even ones that don't selfship with them, makes you uncomfortable
if people have harassed you for being a selfshipper and ruined that fandom, you don't have to interact and they don't have to interact with you! your partner still loves you! im so sorry that happened :(
it's okay to block people
IT IS OKAY TO BLOCK PEOPLE!!!!!!!!
your blog is your curated space, YOU choose who you want to interact with. blocking someone for your own comfort is not a hate crime
if you feel safe enough to post under the character/source main tags, great!
but also give people who dont have that privilege the liberty to run their blog how they wish
you don't have to interact with the community of a media to be a huge fan of it, safety comes first. your partner loves you no matter what <3
