I'm Fae

This is not a spoiler free blog. This is a selective indi blog for a Carnival Row rp character Vignette Stonemoss. I'm Raven. Muse and Mun are over 18. Mostly will be shipping Vini and Philo. Please read the rules before interacting. All artwork directly on the theme was worked on by me. I will have a link to everything in the about section.

Why “Critch” is the best slur ever invented

The word “Critch” is a racial slur from the fantasy series Carnival Row, available now on Amazon Prime.  Critch is sort of short for “Creature” and is intended to be used against magical beings such as faeries, fauns, werewolves, and kobolds in the Victorian-esque fantasy world of Carnival Row. 

Now, why is this slur fun?

1.  The word Critch (though meaning Creature) sounds like a combination of crotch and Bitch.  (Thank you, @sorry-for-the-chocolate​ for pointing that out).

2.   Critch doesn’t actually insult or degrade any known human ethnicity, religion, or sexual identity.

3.   Using it against someone implies that you actually think they are a magical being, which can be quite flattering. 

 Also imagine some wanna-be gangsta saying something like “Where are the critches at?”

(I know, I need sleep…)

Carnival Row s01e01: Some Dark God Wakes

For ages, the homeland of the Fae was a place of myth and legend. Until the many empires of man arrived and warred for control of its riches. Seven years ago, this great war ended when The Republic of The Burgue withdrew… Abandoning the Fae to the iron fist of their rivals, The Pact. Now the Fae’s homeland is the hell from which they yearn to escape…

When the mother and son were taken in first, Gin stayed back contently. Making sure they were taken care of until she couldn’t see them anymore. She then looked away and ahead before Vignette caught her attention again, making her look over. “Hm?” She made the noise through her nose before replying. She smirked a little, “I don’t like taking the sidelines.” She replied softly. “Back where I’m from, it’s my job to save people.” She then added and shoved her hands in the pockets of her coat. “I can’t just… let something like that happen when its unwarranted abuse. Just because someone is different and you don’t like them? That’s a coward and a bully.” She said a little bitterly. 

Her eyes drifted back to where the mother and Son were taken, and a few questions came up in her mind. Why would Vignette take her deeper into her culture like this? Granted, she didn’t know what restrictions Fae had for outsiders, but in her mind, if she was in her shoes, Gin wouldn’t show too much of her hand. Though she did start to catch the attention of the few fae that were hanging around here, for reasons she didn’t know, eventually, all eyes and attention was on her. 

Vignette nodded. “Good. We need less people who just watch.” She sounded a bit bitter, but she was. Life had been difficult for Vignette for a while now and sometimes it felt like humans in particular... were good at ignoring what wasn’t in their face. Or even what was. It was sad, lonely, and frustrating as hell. To meet someone who didn’t... was nice. “But it’s not somethin’ to get you friends in the Burgue. Be careful.” She told the strange human. It was obvious this woman had no only appeared out of nowhere, but this wasn’t even her same world, she kept staring at the Fae as if they weren’t every day people. 

Vignette glared at the people staring. A human was allowed to speak to a Mima. There was no rule against it. Hadn’t Philo gotten to speak to one? Many times? It was simply how afraid everyone was. A pretty female human was... trouble, usually. It meant someone had done something very wrong or somethin’ similar. She crossed her arms and her stance unintentionally widened just a little as she eyed the people staring. They looked away, the fierce little faerie too much to look at. 

A whirr of wings and a woman with dark skin and hair landed before them, hands out. “Vignette, I’ve been told.” She smiled at Vignette who seemed to relax as the woman turned to look at the human. “Welcome, both of you. Come, let us talk.” The woman led the way through the people around them into a very comfortable looking seating room. The holy woman sat down and waited for Vignette and Gin to do the same (if they chose) before speaking. “It is strange to see a human who has no idea of our world. Welcome to the Burgue, and to our world at large.”

DnD is happening again, so I shall be gone much of this evening, though I am not 100% sure by how much, as I’m DMing and I am… not as experienced as I’d like to be. 

That being said, I should be reachable through IMs tomorrow, though I may not respond much as I have plans to bury myself in videogames. 

I hope you guys are doing well, I love you all!

Sorry this is a terrible idea but i'm spewing it on you anyway. D'you think Philo would give vignette his dark asher like a really horrible weasley clock. "as long as this is alive I'm not dead" so she'll know he's alive and probably needs her to rescue him or at least that he isn't faking his death again.

.... that is the most adorable and disgusting idea ALL AT ONCE. Can it not be a Fish/Mole though? She’d totally be here for like... A rabbit/mole or a bird/mole (that would be hilariously adorable) or a rabbit/bird or... something less... completely disgusting. 

But yes, I do actually really love that idea. I’d totally love to RP that too. Just her responce of “... oh...” *stares at it like it might bite her because WTF WHY IS IT SO SLIMY?* *pats her* But the meaning behind it is adorable. :D
