anyways i just want to add, as a last little note, that i am 110% willing to listen to the concerns of other POC!! i welcome it!!! but the fact of the matter is, i would prefer to speak to someone actually of that race. even if it’s a simple non-anonymous ask like hey cherry this is problematic, i will 12/10 correct myself immediately. but if you’re an anon and i don’t know what your deal is && you’re handling such heavy topics, i really don’t feel comfortable dealing with topics such as race with a faceless mask. i hope that makes sense. if i’m going to correct myself, i would rather have full confirmation with someone of that community telling me x might be wrong.

a lot of non-black poc and such have disclaimers on their blog so you can offer criticism if needed be. i don't much like confrontation but if youre like too sensitive to admit that you're not willing to take criticism if needed be from actual black people then youre really sensitive and anti black sorry to say that. like theres absolutely not debate that as a nonblack person you putting a disclaimer: hey critique me if im being anti black or racist but you know

It’s really evident that you did not read my answer. Or, not thoroughly. I am perfectly receptive to listening so long as the person giving the criticism of a certain racial issue pertains to that race. But, the fact of the matter is, you are on anon and I don’t know if you’re actually black trying to explain a genuine issue to me or if you’re a white person trying to speak over POC. Now, before you say I’m trying to discredit you or that I don’t believe you on any of this, this website has made me incredibly cynical. I have seen so many people lie about their race and I’ve seen so many white people try to dictate what is and is not offensive for groups of people, so I’m sorry that I’d prefer to speak one on one with someone to get my shit straight. The fact of the matter is, for someone who doesn’t like confrontation, you seem perfectly comfortable with going on anon and making anti-black implications about me when I have not expressed that sentiment, and only wanted to speak to someone who’s black one-on-one for confirmation. I’ve also spoken with someone OOC who is black and latinx and they didn’t see reason in the disclaimer thing, but if that’s just one opinion against popular community belief, then I am more than willing to engage with more people and listen to more than one opinion. But, my point is, with the way Tumblr is and the fact you are on anon and I know nothing about you, I can’t help but be skeptical. 

I am perfectly receptive to listening, but I like to know the sources that I’m getting my information from is credible. If being thorough and complete makes me “sensitive”, then that’s just a shame.

❝ Why thank you my lady, we share the same sentiments. ❞ And what an honor it was, this goddess was a lady of her own heart. Powerful in all senses, from the strides she took to the glazes she held. A paragon of all she could admire in one such as herself. Silently Penthesilea wondered how this one would fare to her own pantheon among other divine beings such as Artemis and Athena. ❝ Call it vanity, but I would be more then happy to indulge you in a tale or two of mine. Do you hunt by any chance? I was considered one of the finest in my lands. ❞

Moon could not help but encounter fascination with the woman, for so many tales had been spun of her that fascination followed, as it was want to do within such circumstances. She smiled wider, though shook her head in the slightest.  ❝ I don’t hunt--never for sport, anyhow. When I fought, it was for war. I must say I have placed my weapon down long ago, yet to hear of your own triumphs in the sport would be nothing short of wonderful. ❞ Moon was not a woman of violence, having fought when it was necessary, when all the gods were in turmoil. She found greater solace in words, yet respected those with a prowess she did not practice. Just because one did not partake within an art did not mean one was incapable of admiring it.

hey cherry just reminding you that if youre not black and playing a black muse you should put that in your about :0

I want to preface this by saying that I am Latina, and if someone were to RP sb latinx, me, personally–I wouldn’t make them put a disclaimer in their rules saying that they aren’t because I wouldn’t mind them portraying a latinx so long as it isn’t offensive or stereotype heavy. That being said, I’m not black, and don’t know if that’s how the black community feels, however, continuing, you yourself have not specified whether or not you are black–you’re on anon. If you are black, great! Explain this to me OOC and off anon, but if you’re not, I would prefer an actual black person to talk to me about this situation. It sounds dismissive, but I’ve seen a lot of fake woke white people who try to speak over POC and say what is and isn’t offensive, disregarding others’ voices. So, yeah.

❝ I must admit, I have never... thought much of tarot readings, though I heard you’ve a particular skill with them. Could I perhaps trouble you for a reading? ❞ Her tone left room for his refusal, though perhaps her phrasing had set into motion her utterance in such a way that perhaps rejecting her was not the wisest. She with diamonds dangling from her ears and elegantly crossed arms bearing bangles. Rouged lips pulled back into a smile, carefully regarding the other. // @buriedgods liked for a starter

❝ You seem to know this establishment well. ❞ Hardly an offensive tone, if only with the slightest undercurrents of curiosity. His personage was one unique enough to draw attention even in an establishment such as The Rowdy Raven. She herself was no better donning foreign attire whilst holding a glass of some cheap liquor with a certain manner of elegance.  ❝ If only that you look at ease. Actually, would you mind telling me what card game those ladies were playing earlier? ❞ //  @gallowhung liked for a starter

❝ A pleasure to finally make your acquaintance. I have heard much of you, yet that is only to be expected of one so formidable. ❞ Moon retained a fondness for women of warrior inclinations, reminded to her own roots during a time of strife (trident in hand, armor weighing down upon her frame--so different from her luxuriant attire nowadays).  ❝ Perhaps I ask too much, but I would love to hear a story of an accomplishment--you remind me of my own, combative days. ❞ // @warcrowned liked for a starter

anyways moon is super glamorous && what-not but my fave thing about her is that she still has this giant ass trident she is not afraid to use again. basically there was this one period where the gods kept warring against each other when they were first made (trying to establish a hierarchy and all)--and like............... Moon was one of the warriors that stood out bc she was that formidable. i love her

How does the idea of lesbian space Be.yonce sound to you?? Well, if that sounds appealing, then I’ve got an OC for you with her own original canon! This is Moon, the god of, well, the Moon. One of the most formidable gods in her pantheon, Moon is a lady who gets things done and looks good doing it. Capable, yet still welcoming--she can be your rich best friend who takes you out to nice dinners and will 110% support you. 

So like/reblog if you’re interested!!
