Perhaps people could see me during the festival... 🤔

- @nude-anon

... Can people not see you now?

[nude-anon]

Sometimes! Mostly kids. Or very imaginative people.

I came by the theater the other day but no one notices me. ):

[lotus-dancer-nilou]

Only children and imaginative people can see you?

This sounds like something from a children's story

Nude anon... What are you?

[nude-anon]

Yes, this is why the phone I found has been so great!! People can hear me now!!!

[lotus-dancer-nilou]

Interesting...

The only kind of beings I've heard that can't be seen by most people are the Jinni spirits and the Aranara. But those are just fairy tale creatures, they aren't real.

[nude-anon]

No, they are both real! The Jinn are scary, though. ):

[lotus-dancer-nilou]

They're real??

And if you think the Jinn are scary, that means you're not one.

Which means... Oh my Archons! This whole time you've been an Aranara? Like actually? I've been speaking to an Aranara this whole time?

[nude-anon]

Yes!

I still can't find my hat. ):

[lotus-dancer-nilou]

Your hat?

Is that why you're saying your nude? Because you don't have your hat?

[nude-anon]

Yes!!! It has been lost and I do not feel like myself anymore.

[lotus-dancer-nilou]

Aww🥺 that's so sad

That odd list of materials you sent me makes a lot of sense now. Even tho I can see you, I can leave them out for you so you can make a new one!

[nude-anon]

Thank you!! I will leave you a gift at the theater.

[lotus-dancer-nilou]

I am an expert flower crown maker!!! When is the meet up? (:

- @nude-anon

Well, um.

I was planning to spend the weekend making the crowns. Some help would be nice I suppose. But Mr. Zubayr just implemented a rule that everyone who enters the theater must be clothed!! So if you're going to help I'm afraid you'll have to be dressed. I don't make the rules...

[nude-anon]

I have been trying to find my clothes, I would like to visit my friends very much. ):

[lotus-dancer-nilou]

... Find your clothes?

Did you lose them?

[nude-anon]

Yes. ):

That is when I embraced nudism.

[lotus-dancer-nilou]

So, instead of getting new clothes you just decided to walk around naked?

[nude-anon]

I wish it was so simple.

[lotus-dancer-nilou]

Well, is there anything I can do to help?

[nude-anon]

I have been trying to find my clothes. They are not easy to make and the materials are a pain to gather.

[lotus-dancer-nilou]

Well if you can't find them, why don't I help you make new ones!

What kind of materials do you need?

[nude-anon]

You would help?? Okay! I will send you a list of materials that I need to find. Most are in the rainforest.

[lotus-dancer-nilou]

Rainforest materials? Interesting.

What kind of clothes do you wear?

[papillonaskblog]

If we’re talking about making clothes, then I can always help~ :)

We’ll need to take your measurements, nude anon. I can lend you some undergarments, since I would prefer to not have to take measurements from a completely naked body… I’ve always thought measuring was a bit intrusive in the first place.

Antoine is also quite skilled with making flower crowns, but I suppose he might want some rest for a while. He has to still get used to ‘the future’, I suppose.

[lotus-dancer-nilou]

Wonderful!

We'll have @nude-anon fully clothed in no time! I wonder what kind of materials they want me to help collect from the rainforest.

[nude-anon]

I will give you my measurements! I am worried you will not be able to see me when I get there.

why is nude anon back...😭

I'm afraid Nude anon never left, unfortunately.

[kavzz]

So genuinely glad I've not be interacted with yet by them, actually

[lotus-dancer-nilou]

Shhhh you're gonna jinx it!

[nude-anon]

(:

[lotus-dancer-nilou]

When is your next performance, Nilou? I'd like to come watch. (:

- @nude-anon

Well, the next time I plan to perform would be in a few weeks at the Sabzeruz Festival.

I would love for you to come... But I ask that you come clothed, please.

[nude-anon]

You won't even know I'm there. (:

[forest-watcher-tighnari]

How do you feel about marriage? (:

- @nude-anon

…I think it’s lovely. Especially when people wear clothes to the wedding.

[nude-anon]

Are you saying I'm invited to your wedding on the condition I wear clothes?

[forest-watcher-tighnari]

That is not what I said. As far as I’m aware, I’m not even having a wedding.

[nude-anon]

Sure, not just yet. You have to plan that first. I know some great clothing designers you could talk to, as well as a fantastic event planner.

[papillonaskblog]

Why do you seem so upset about being gay?

- @nude-anon

Because I’m not. I’m been driven sick of hearing it!

Is it really ‘gay’ to admire beauty? So what if it happens to be a man? I am simply appreciating… nature. The way that nature has designed people. It is not ‘gay’ to simply appreciate the way the human body was so intricately designed and built. Even if it happens to be a man.

[nude-anon]

Never said any of that was gay. I agree with your sentiments.

You just seem so... hostile about it? Do people really ask you that a lot?

[papillonaskblog]

It’s not that I resent being gay, it’s just that people really do ask me all the time! I’ve actually received quite a lot of spiteful comments about it. I thought society was a lot more progressive nowadays, but it seems to be the opposite-

I’ve never actually thought about my sexuality before, as it doesn’t exactly matter to me. I suppose I naturally gravitate more towards men, but that’s just in general! It means absolutely nothing.

A man can still wear dresses and like glitter and gems and butterflies and not be homosexual. What does it matter? Homosexuality isn’t contagious or anything.

[nude-anon]

I am asking this genuinely and as a friend: are you afraid that you'll be seen as a stereotype if you do like men?

[papillonaskblog]

Well, maybe. I don’t like to label myself.

I have my name, birthplace, age and love for fashion… That’s really all I need to describe myself. I feel like sticking another label on myself would throw me into a community that I don’t feel comfortable or don’t fit into.

I don’t want to be seen as just another gay man, I suppose. I’m Papillon, and I make fancy dresses and suits. If people knew that I like men then that would be all that they see of me.

And thank you… for being my friend.

[nude-anon]

Your feelings are valid and I understand your concerns. I won't say that no one would view you that way, because people are, well, people, and not all of us have the best of intentions.

That said, I worry that by being so rejecting of a potential identity that could be frowned upon or stereotyping by narrow-minded people, you're also denying yourself a chance to explore and express other facets of your identity. You don't need to adopt a label or integrate yourself into a community to explore yourself and figure out who you are. You never need tell anybody of what you find, but do know that there are those people out there that just want to support you for who you are and not what you identify or label yourself as.

I'm always more than happy to lend an ear if you'd like to talk, friend. 🫂

[papillonaskblog]

You have some wisdom in you, after all. Thank you for this, it was really a refreshing experience.

I really didn’t think this could come from you, of all people… If you see what I mean.

I’d love to talk another time, if you do, friend :)

[nude-anon]

I hear all the time that I'm a pretty surprising person, so I get it!

I will definitely reach out again, but know you can always contact me! I hope this will help you. 💕
