Once when I was in undergrad, someone described something as “problematic” in class and our professor was like, “That’s cool, but ‘problematic’ doesn’t really mean anything. It means that the thing you’re describing has a problem, and in and of itself that’s not bad. Art, especially, should always have problems, or else it’s not interesting and not art, either. It sounds like you’re trying to say that this is bad, but you don’t want to say ‘bad.’ Is that right?”

So from then on whenever one of us called something problematic, he would make us talk it out until we could name the “bad” thing we were hinting at. In this particular class, 7/10 it was some type of oppression, and the remainder was like, “I’m uncomfortable because this is very new/confusing/pushing boundaries that made me feel safe.”

Once we stopped calling things “problematic” and stopping at that, class got way more interesting and... we all had to say, like, “that’s racist” or “that’s misogynistic” or “ew capitalism gross” out loud, which a lot of us had never done in a classroom before. Or we had to be like, “Uhhh... I’m not sure what’s so bad?” and confront our own beliefs and that was maybe even more useful.

Anyway. Whenever I see the word problematic, I can’t help but think of this professor being like, “Good starting point, now let’s get specific.” I think when we have to commit to saying “that’s ___” it requires a lot more careful thought about the truth and impact and complexities of whatever we’re claiming. Sometimes there really is some bullshit afoot, and also sometimes it’s art, and it should be full of problems, because that’s what art is.

Day 4 - Strength for @emerieweekofficial

From kels_bookish and myself .

Artist Seyari.art

The concept is based on the headcanon that Emerie visits her mother's resting place.

“If you were to name a sword, what would you call it?' Gwyn answered, thought she hadn't been asked, 'Silver Majesty.' Emerie snorted, 'Really?' Gwyn demanded, 'What would you call it?' Emerie considered. 'Foe Slayer, or something. Something intimidating.'

New Elucien fanart alert!!!

Elain with their kids and I’m actually dying over here🤭🥹

Commissioned by me💞

[primulagoldworthy]

That one Starfall where we accidentally showed up in matching colors.

Elain spent days trying to decide on a color for this year’s Starfall. Green was out of the question, since it was the color he preferred to wear. Her sisters were coming in matching colors with their mates. Elain, usually taking the safe route with a shade of pink, wanted to try something different this time. After contemplating between crimson and amethyst, she chose the latter. Purple was a darker shade of pink, after all. Kind of. Surely he wouldn’t show up in that color, and even if he did, it would probably be a much darker tone. Or simply green.

That’s what she thought.

Yet there he stood, in the exact same shade of amethyst as her dress, looking as shocked as she felt.

“I can go home and change,” he offered politely.

“No need to do that,” Elain forced out, trying to calm the rapid pounding of her heart. Everyone was watching them. Amused. Worried. She hated the audience.

“I should — it’s making you uncomfortable.”

“Having you change would make me even more so. We’re already here, and everyone has seen us. I don’t mind. We’ll just…” Politely ignore each other.

He understood, inclining his head. She could see the hurt in his eyes. The longing.

Wanting to say at least one nice thing to him, she added — politely, of course — “The color suits you.”

He looked genuinely startled. A blush crept over his handsome face, deepening the hue of his mysterious scar. Elain’s fingers twitched.

“I am so glad to hear that,” he replied, the corner of his lips turning upward in the barest hint of a smile. “I was worried people would mistake me for Rhys.”

Elain couldn’t hide her amusement, or the slight bubble of laughter that wanted to escape her chest.

The curve of his lips turned into a real smile, his eyes shining at her reaction. They stared at each other, and for a moment, it didn’t feel uncomfortable. It didn't feel awkward.

Gesturing toward the table, Lucien asked, “Can I get you a drink, lady?”

Cannot wait for Brat Elain and Brat Tamer Lucien to happen.

Hi Amanda, how are you? I don’t remember if it was you who commissioned it (I vaguely recall it might have been, but I’m not sure), but I was looking through your IG and couldn’t find it. It was a somewhat NSFW Elucien fanart where in the first part Lucien is being gentle with Elain, and in the second part Elain appears sweaty with Lucien grabbing her hair. Was it you who commissioned it? If so, do you have the link? I tried to find it but couldn’t.

Hey anon!

I hope you’re doing well too!

Here’s the artwork you requested! Yes it’s one of my commissions. It used to be up on Instagram page, but then a bunch of jobless elriels reported it. Suprise surprise!! They tend to report any art that doesn’t support their ship.

Anyways, my commission got removed from Instagram so I’ll post it here 💛💛

The artist is @anastina_91 on IG 💛💛
