Hey, I'm Skylar. I'm a young adult trans man from the west US. I go by he/they/it/ possible others, I think neos and xenos are cool but haven't decided what they mean for me yet (considering star/leaf currently, but honestly, call me any xenos you want, get creative, if I like em enough I might keep em :3)

I'm pansexual/romantic, transmasc, questioning some element of asexuality, and I'm polyamourous. my partners are like a family unit to me, i love them
I'm in school to work with audio right now! kind of just all things to do with equipment and recording. I'm considering going into sound foley (sound effects for movies) or possibly videogame sound design, but broadcast and music production are so cool as well.
Im an artist and writer. Im not to a point where I'm comfortable sharing my work yet, but i hope to be someday. I don't do either as a full time job and likely never will. i used to think id be an artist/animator, but as i got more into learning that, the thing I enjoyed stop being that and i stopped drawing at all for some time. I'm getting back into it now, learning how to enjoy it again for myself. as for writing, we'll see...

These are some drawings I’ve made over the past few months of songs as dragons! Most of their colors are based off their album covers, but if not, then they’re based off of the color/vibe they give. Originally I was going to post these one per day but I don’t have the patience for that so…here you go
Edit: ok which one of these tags is summoning the bots. There have been like ten of the tagging bots on only this post 😭😭

Quick vent art inspired by "The Village" because I'm french and this last month has been a literal hell with these fucking elections with these fasc*sts in the streets and the laws against trans minors and the attacks against minorities of all kind and the police having access to whoever change their name and all these people voting for hate and I received death threats online too even tho I'm not even that public and just all of this stuff, I'm fucking tired being trans and autistic and I don't know what to do anymore, I feel so small and powerless and I don't get why this country hates me that bad
Sorry this isn't really what I usually post but just- I've had a hell of a month honestly I'm scared day and night since this all started and every new is worse than the previous one I'm just tired-
I don't know if I'm gonna finish this I just needed to draw
a mix-up of good omens-coded songs (idk how to title this--)
Hellooo my maggots, so there were a number of songs that were just so good omens and ineffable lovers coded that I had to see how they sounded together. But me being me, I don't know how to actually mashup songs, so I just sang it the way I'd have wanted to mashup the songs and made it into one song.
Of course all songs remind us of Good Omens now, that's a different matter of significant concern. But these especially were very Aziraphale and Crowley's religious-trauma-and-being-queer vibey.
The songs I cover here are (in order and excluding repeats) Devil's Backbone by the Civil Wars, Take Me to Church by Hozier, Angel By the Wings by Sia, Falling by Harry Styles, Holy Water by Noah Davis, The Village by Wrabel and Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen.
And, well. Yep. The lyrics in the order that I sing them are below the cut. Thank you maggots for dragging me into this brainrot it is painful and unholy and I love it here so so much. Thank you @falling-raine for yelling at me to post this. Wahoooooooo!
[LYRICS]
Oh lord, oh lord, what have I done
I’ve fallen in love with a man on the run
Oh lord, oh lord, I’m begging you please
Don’t take that sinner from me
Oh, don’t take, take, take, take
Take me to church, I’ll worship like a dog
At the shrine of your lies, I’ll tell you my sins
And you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death, good god, let me give you my life
Oh lord, oh lord, what do I do?
I’ve fallen for someone who’s nothing like you
He’s raised on the edge of the devil’s backbone
I just want to take him home
Oh, I just want to take, take, take
So take an angel by the wings,
Beg her now for anything,
Beg her now for one more day
Just take an angel by the wings
Time to tell her everything
Ask her for the strength to stay
What am I now? What am I now?
What if I’m someone you won’t talk about?
I’m falling again, I’m falling again
I’m falling
I’ve walked through hell and back again
Cause I’m a man who loves a man
No you don’t need to pray for me
No I don’t need your
Holy water
I don’t need your sympathy, sympathy, your—
Holy water
Just cause you think differently, differently
There’s nothing wrong with you
It’s true, it’s true
There’s something wrong in the village, in the village
Oh
Coz I’ve been there, sitting in the same chair
Whispering that same prayer half a million times
It’s a lie though, buried in disciples
One page of the Bible isn’t worth a life
But I’ve heard there was a secret chord
That David played and it pleased the Lord
But you don’t really care for music
Do ya?
And it’s not a cry that you hear at night
It’s not somebody who’s seen the light
It’s a cold and it’s a broken
Hallelujah
Hallelujah.
