if you like fat people please fucking say it. expecially fat women. the thing about liking fat girls is that so many of them don't even know how much they need the kind of love you can give them. they need to know it's normal for someone to love their body because of how it looks. people talk all the time about how everyone who likes fat women is some evil 'feeder' predator that's going to destroy their 'victim's' life and personhood and i'm so fucking done with it because it's just fatphobic nonsense and kink-negative bullshit where people think that sexual desire has moral value again. it's the worried-for-your-health argument mixed up with a big ladleful of shame. please tell us you think we're sexy. love us in public and to your friends and family. be prepared for some of us to not know what to do with all that. keep doing it anyway. love us wholly, every bit of us, and incessantly. we need it.

All their possibilities are gone now. Taken, alongside everything else. They can only be what they are.

Though apart, they share a purpose. And at the very least, they can be together for the ending.

(chit-chat under the cut!)

I lied, I paused the mama Afton piece because I suddenly got a lot of Feelings about Mike and Charlie and I just had to express it through Art.

Something I want to explore in Wake is this idea that these two are on a parallel journey. They're both these kids who were forced to grow up too fast, whose parents failed them in some way, who were thrust into a guardianship that should never have been their sole responsibility, who feel so much and fight so hard to keep what is them...ah, it's just a lot of feelings!

I've seen various interpretations about Mike and Charlie's potential relationship before The Events. Though the "red string of fate" is often used to symbolize a romantic connection, I'm using it here more for platonic love. In my interpretation, they were close before everything went downhill, but the love they had remains and their lives are still inexorably linked. Would they have made up had Charlie lived? Would their friendship crumble completely? Would they have fallen in love, or out of love, or something in-between? None of those questions really matter, because William's actions have stolen every such possibility from their lives. There is only what they have now, which is equally precious even if it's bittersweet.

My original plan for this piece was to have more overt representations of their respective deaths in the silhouettes, but the guts/blood splatter shadows just didn't look good, haha. So I went for ol' reliable and ramped up the Symbolism with those blood red cardinals. I mentioned this in the last piece that used the bird, but cardinals are symbolically considered spiritual messengers, or representing the presence of angels. I think the bird is very fitting for two characters who have been thrust into such a "guardian angel" role through their deaths.

My other note is that I thought about using the bear mask from Pizza Sim for the Mike shadow, but...I think I'm going to change it to a fox in Wake, because the symbolism is just too good, and also I like to keep my characters' symbology consistent haha. I'll work on a design for that at some point...

This has been plenty of chit-chat for now! Back to writing (or getting distracted by another art piece, we'll see)!

The idea of, I guess you would say top breaking? dom breaking? is so hot to me. Making a big strong guy, someone who's never thought about bottoming or submitting, who's always considered themselves to be the ones "in control", the ones doing, rather than the ones being done to, especially if they have that bit of arrogance, and then making them submit to you, kneel for you, beg for you, because of how good you've made them feel? The power in that

Incredible

chat...chat I'm thinking about the timeloops for In Cages and Feathers...

as I continue to work on The Birdcage I'm simply. Thinking about making this into a Mirabelle and Siffrin loops AU. and excluding Loop as a character. Slowly developing things out over the course of this fic- because it serves an intro/backstory fic to this AU in general. Getting the early development thoughts out of the way is helpful for later when we get into the loops portion because I deeply enjoy spicing things up when it comes to the timeloops and aus! Changes in backstory for characters should reflect in the main plot, and I think turning this into a Mira and Sif loops au sounds like fun. This is mostly because I'm thinking of Mirabelle as the main character of the overall story, even though Siffrin is our primary POV character. Which, granted, is true even in canon, but its even more true in this

Because yes, it's Mira whose the chosen one. She has Euphrasie's blessing- but she also has Siffrin's (of which MANY of you have already clock that Siffrin's voice can use Craft, and that their scream when Mira fled the house did something). It's her who is gathering the orbs and building a party- and her who makes a decision to help Siffrin after he finally escaped from the King. It's her who calls the shots (even if she's terrified doing it). She's the one at the steering wheel, and despite the fact she never wanted to take it, girlypop is driving the blinding car! She is living the heroine life she never asked for!

...also, it doesn't really make sense to me if Siffrin is looping. At least, not alone. Half the plot of ISAT revolves around the Island, revolves around Siffrin picking up the fragments of who he used to be. ICAF Sif already knows all of that. They already know what they lost, they're hyper-blinding-aware of it! They don't got a choice thanks to the King and what he did to Sif!

Mirabelle, from the start, is going (metaphorically) hand-in-hand with Sif into the House of Dormant. Mira to fight for her home and a future where everyone is free to Change, Siffrin to learn what it's like to have a future at all.

I simply think it would be fun if Mirabelle and Siffrin made a wish at the favor tree together, and had to figure out the consequences of that, together.

...also, I'm deeply biased towards Mirabelle. She is my favorite character. And I'm the only writer of this AU. I don't have to argue over massive plot points (cough cough hi Jynx, we will never agree on weeping god au act 5 king fight. cough cough cough-)

Won't confirm it right now because it's still in development and these are loose thoughts, but I'm gonna be real, it's about a 90% chance I commit to this. I love my Meeble n Birb!

y'all are free to give me your thoughts on this. I'm gonna be thinking about the various ways to throw these two into the torment nexus.

Hey Rhea. Do you know how long and how much do I need to take antidepressants?

@zoro-r

depends on how bad your symptoms are!

for around 4 weeks we can mess around with the type of antidepressant and brand to figure out which works best for you, and then after that you should stay on them for a minimum of 6 months :)

if after those 6 months, the symptoms come back, you should probably stay on them for longer! usually, two years or more

also, consider the side effects!!

SSRIs can give you cold-like symptoms when you first start them, like nausea, headache, dry mouth, and a lot of sweating, so make sure to drink a lot of water and get your electrolytes!! they can also mess up your circadian rhythm later on!

SNRIs have similar side effects, but they can also cause fatigue, high blood pressure, and/or an elevated heart rate!

with both of these, if you start having bad thoughts or feeling realllyyy sick (like a high fever, agitation, and an irregular heartbeat), come to me or your ships doctor IMMEDIATELY!!! the second one is a sign of serotonin syndrome, which can kill you in hours, and the first one just means that your reactions to the meds needs to be monitored for a bit!!

atypical antidepressants have similar side effects, but some cause sedation and some cause anxiety, restlessness, and insomnia!

also, when you eventually stop taking them, do not stop abruptly!! instead, do it gradually! if you do it too quickly, you’ll feel sick :(

Ok I'm super curious now, why do you think Kamui would prefer the short nurse outfit over the other ones 👀?

I love when you read my tags💕 Ok, let me explain:

I think most Gintama guys would be more than fine with their partner being simply naked, they really don't need anything else to get them going lol.

Kamui case is different than Gintoki one, Gin find arousing the idea of his partner role-playing and sucking the sickness out of him, Kamui isn't in the role-play stuff.

Kamui loves the thought of his partner tending his wounds and the ones of his army. You must have a strong mind to be able to take care of all these guys with more or less fatal wounds and the idea turn him on so much.

His partner ordering people around, concentrated expression, but with a tiny tiny pastel pink skirt that always hikes up higher and the blouse that really can't contain your chest; he just wanna fold you in half.

The thought of having his strong minded partner all cute getting fucked dumb by him really makes him mind wander in dangerous places.

It's more a power-imbalance/mind-fucking thing for him. The other dresses are really cute too but won't make his mind imagine as much.
