// yo! I’m gonna be archiving this blog and moving to a multimuse here!

// OKAY so I’m putting all my blogs on semi-hiatus because they’re taking up too much of my time and energy and I’m trying to prioritize other creative projects that are much more serious and important to me (specifically my novels and I’m working on drawing an ant-themed tarot deck)

What this means is if you want replies from me, nudge me on discord @ hnak#7399

“Is the sky painted? Are there really brush strokes that show up under magnification?” “Yes.” “I can’t see them.” “You’re too close. You have to be a long way off, the way the ANDROIDS are. They have better perspective.”

Dear Evan Hansen — Requiem {Sentence Starters}

“But, tell me what for…?”

“Don’t say it wasn’t true.”

“I will sing no requiem tonight.”

“Oh, don’t the tears just pour?”

“After all you put me through…”

“I hear your voice, I feel you near.”

“I could give in to all of the gloom.”

“Everything wasted, nothing to say.”

“Why should I have a heavy heart?“

“I could curl up and hide in my room.”

“Within these words, I finally find you.”

“Why should I start to break in pieces?“

“Why should I go and fall apart for you?“

“I gave you the world, you threw it away.”

“Why should I say I’ll keep you with me?“

“Such a great son and wonderful friend…”

“Why should I play this game of pretend?“

“So, don’t tell me that I didn’t have it right.”

“My world has gone dark without your light.”

“Don’t tell me that it wasn’t black and white.”

“And, now, that I know that you are still here.”

“Remembering through a secondhand sorrow?“

“'Cause when the villains fall, the kingdoms never weep.”

“No one mourns at all when they lay them down to sleep.”

“Why should I play the grieving girl and lie, saying that I miss you?”

“Don’t say it wasn’t true, that you were not the monster that I knew.”

“I gave you the world, you threw it away, leaving these broken pieces behind you.”

( He blinks. He guessed an invitation, but not one of this magnitude. Of course, he does enjoy her company. Intellectually and by merit of personality, to boot. But he doesn’t think he is smarter or more useful than a literal robot. And he isn’t particularly cheerful or a good conversation partner even. )

– Uhm, I’m flattered –genuinely- but also finding this unexpected.

Why? You’re skilled at what you do and less noticeable than I am in a crowd of humans. And lower profile than a superhero.

hey so i know they're named after a bug but one of your characters does have a slur in the title, is there any way you'd be willing to change their name for a diff bug? idk if you are or not and so i'm definitely not going to ask you to change things if you're reclaiming a slur that belongs to you but like wouldn't your characters name involving a slur require other ppl to write the slur? and as non romani ppl we really shouldn't, too many romani people have asked us not to.

y e a h you’re honestly right, it is a little rough, but i like this persona of her better then her skein persona because there she’s written as a predatory bisexual at some parts… so it’s rough. i’ll edit the post though, i did think about this a lot before posting it. regrettably that is the bug’s name and the character herself is romani,,, so it’s rough

// Sybil, a fictional character, being Romani doesn’t give non-Romani people license to use a slur. Neither of her creators are/were Romani, so they shouldn’t have been using the slur to begin with.

Carl Linnaeus, who first described the moth in question, was not Romani. I can’t find more information about where the common name came from, but it’s pretty safe to assume it was not named by Romani people. Ergo, lymantria dispar dispar’s common name should be changed as well.

People role playing comic characters will make all kinds of alterations to canon to improve it or better fit their idea of a character.

And, while you changed the promo text, you still have the slur on many places on Sybil’s blog and didn’t make any promises to change that. It kinda feels like you’re doing the bare minimum by changing the promo’s text and not altering the codename to something that a) doesn’t include a slur and b) suits your vision of Sybil, since you have personal objections to her other canon codenames

The stories of the new “public menace” in New York had reached the Academy. To Jocasta, reviewing the footage for herself and carefully analyzing what she saw, it was fairly clear this young man wasn’t malevolent. Careless and untrained, maybe, but not deliberately destructive.

She takes it upon herself to approach him, flying to New York and waiting until there were reports of Wonderboy’s activity. Jocasta heads to his last known location, landing with a heavy thud. “Wonderboy?”
