If YouTube’s new AI flags you as “underage” and asks for an ID or your face, DO NOT GIVE IT TO THEM.

Uninstall the app. Close the browser. Leave a 1 star review on the App Store and/or Google Play Store. Call them if you can, and don’t email as there aren’t any humans that see those.

Let them know that this new policy unfairly targets gamers, those with autism, those who watch cartoons, etc. It was never about protecting the kids.

Get prepared for FRAXUS WEEK 2025!

You all have yet again helped to choose the prompts for this year's Fraxus Week and we are all set and ready, so here goes the official post! Save the date, mark it in your calendar (but do not stress about it because late entries are always welcome) - Fraxus Week takes place from August 31st till September 8th!

It would be a great help if you share the post and help to spread the word about the eventm everywhere you can 😊. Every reblog helps us to get the information around, so nobody misses the oppourtunity ❣️

As every year we can't wait to see what you guys will come up with for the prompts and thank you for everyone who sent in their suggestions. If anybody's curious about it; the prompt Sorcerer's Weekly was the most popular by a good margin and we love it as well haha! It's always a highlight of the year and it's so amazing to see that the love and fandom for this incredible ship still very much existent and strong. Newbie or oldie, we welcome you!

Again, the week will start on the 31st of August with the first Bonus day (we call it Fraxus Week Eve) and end on the 8th of September with the second Bonus day, as usual.

There is ONE NEW RULE addition starting this year, namely that, on the last Bonus Day (September 8th) you will be allowed to participate with a NSFW piece. Explicit nsfw is not allowed for all the foregoing days but since we have not hosted the Fraxus Love Fest any longer, we decided to include this new rule so that whoever wants to submit a n.sfw piece for their ship is now allowed to do so for at least one of the days.

Everything else remains the same, but feel free to read/skim the official rules for this event still!

So, the prompts as voted by the fandom, finally, - here goes!

August 31st/Fraxus Week Eve: Blush

September 1st/Day 1: First meeting/Early Days

September 2nd/Day 2: Blood and/or Glitter

September 3rd/Day 3: Cuddles and/or Late Nights

September 4th/Day 4: Training or Fighting side by side

September 5th/Day 5: Sorcerer Weekly/Photoshoot/Interview

September 6th/Day 6: Magic Swap

September 7th/Day 7: Masquerade or Ballroom

September 8th/Bonus day: Edolas or; NEW RULE THIS YEAR, an NSFW piece of your choice

RULES:

Everyone is allowed to participate and basically every sort of entry is allowed! Art, a fanfic, edits, headcanons, …everything! Just make sure that it has to do with Fraxus and does not imply something else/negative/other ships/trigger topics like SA etc! It also shouldn’t include something nsfw (exception: Bonus Day). Entries bordering on nsfw or suggestive mentions are alright.

Please put at least one of the tags fraxusweek or fraxus week in the first five tags of your entry! fraxus will suffice, too, if you forget to tag it otherwise but using the first two named tags will just make it easier for us to find the entries for this week!

You can also combine prompts, create multiple pieces per prompt or not use the prompts at all. If you’re not inspired by any of them, it’s okay to do your own thing or do something similar to the prompts.

The prompts can take place in the Canon Verse or an Alternate Universe, it's up to you!

Don’t worry about being late/on time! Late entries are always welcome, no matter how late. We know that things can get stressful very easily, so don’t worry about it!

Do not steal other people’s content! That won’t be accepted and that applies not only to this week but in general. Also refrain from reposting somebody's work without permission.

You can also submit your entries to our blog if you want.

If you’ve got any questions, just shoot us a an ask or a private message!

That’s it! We’re super looking forward to the event again. Let’s celebrate our beautiful ship!

This year, the wonderful @cylove gave us the permission to utilize their stunning artwork for the official Fraxus Week 2025 banner. We also want to use this opportunity to give a shoutout and encourage y'all to go support their work! <3 You can find the original artwork used for this banner right >here<. Thank you again for allowing us to use your artwork for the banner <3 😊

LAXUS DREYAR ENJOYERS do I have a video for you!

I posted a video where I figure out how to draw him, because I'm convinced he hates fanartists. If you also struggle to draw him (or just wanna watch me slowly lose my mind while I suffer) be sure to check it out!

Here's some face drawings from the video, some better than others:

I don't need to breathe when you look at me, all I see is green 💚⚡

A well thought out and meticulously organized fraxus playlist, if you even care

[oliversantics]

Laxus had time to wear his coat in that monstrous way of his, but he couldn't put on a shirt? Whore.

[oliversantics]

As always, this account will be late to every trend i see

[oliversantics]

Why is he like this 😔

in 2004 george w bush won the presidential election and promised in his acceptance speech to codify a federal ban on gay marriage. 30 states passed bans on gay marriage in the wake of his re-election. and then they fell. one by one by one. it has to get worse before it gets better.

queers. trans people especially. our attitude for the next decade has to be “we’re not fucking scared of you”. do you understand? this has always been at the core of who we are and what we do. we fucking move. we take up space or carve out our own with our bare hands. we take care of us.

do you know the other queers in your neighborhood? do you know who you can call at a bad time? do you know whose house you can crash at? do you know where you can go for a free meal? do you know where you can bring meals to the hungry? do you know the LGBT resources available in your area? do you know the informed consent clinics in your area?

do you know how DIY HRT works? do you know and have friends who don’t? do you know our history? have you read the works of james baldwin and leslie feinberg? are you equipped with knowledge about the forces that work against us? do you understand dialectical materialism? do you know what to say if stopped by the police? do you know what good opsec is? are your legal documents in order? do you know how to get them in order?

scream, cry, rot in your bed, do whatever you need to do to process this, then find something to do. do not fall into despair. in the face of extermination say “fuck you.”

It’s late and I don’t know the technical science behind the reason light does this (probably has to do with the way light bends or something), ever since I saw this @grizandnorm​ art tip on Chromatic Fringe, it has been constantly in the back of my mind when it comes to drawings with warm lighting/bright lighting.

And then somehow, I completely goofed around and figured out that I could do this hack of mine rather than hand draw it like I had been and struggling to get the results I wanted. Depending on your style, it may work out better that way, but for now, I might try to remember this hack as a quick, efficient way of going about it.

Here was my initial accidental discovery of the trick:
