When Brazilian graphic designer Carol Rossetti began posting colorful illustrations of women and their stories to Facebook, she had no idea how popular they would become. 

Thousands of shares throughout the world later, the appeal of Rosetti’s work is clear. Much like the street art phenomenon Stop Telling Women To Smile, Rossetti’s empowering images are the kind you want to post on every street corner, as both a reminder and affirmation of women’s bodily autonomy. 

“It has always bothered me, the world’s attempts to control women’s bodies, behavior and identities,” Rossetti told Mic via email. “It’s a kind of oppression so deeply entangled in our culture that most people don’t even see it’s there, and how cruel it can be.”

Rossetti’s illustrations touch upon an impressive range of intersectional topics, including LGBTQ identity, body image, ageism, racism, sexism and ableism. Some characters are based on the experiences of friends or her own life, while others draw inspiration from the stories many women have shared across the Internet. 

“I see those situations I portray every day,” she wrote. “I lived some of them myself.”

Despite quickly garnering thousands of enthusiastic comments and shares on Facebook, the project started as something personal — so personal, in fact, that Rossetti is still figuring out what to call it. For now, the images reside in albums simply titled “WOMEN in english!“ or ”Mujeres en español!“ which is fitting: Rossetti’s illustrations encompass a vast set of experiences that together create a powerful picture of both women’s identity and oppression.

One of the most interesting aspects of the project is the way it has struck such a global chord. Rossetti originally wrote the text of the illustrations in Portuguese, and then worked with an Australian woman to translate them to English. A group of Israeli feminists also took it upon themselves to create versions of the illustrations in Hebrew. Now, more people have reached out to Rossetti through Facebook and offered to translate her work into even more languages. Next on the docket? Spanish, Russian, German and Lithuanian.

It’s an inspiring show of global solidarity, but the message of Rossetti’s art is clear in any language. Above all, her images celebrate being true to oneself, respecting others and questioning what society tells us is acceptable or beautiful.

“I can’t change the world by myself,” Rossetti said. “But I’d love to know that my work made people review their privileges and be more open to understanding and respecting one another.””

Albedo x Aether however it is a manager x main singer au

It's also a little 6NEMO au but I don't really talk about the other members and just fixate on my blonde boys Albedo and Aether :]

CW// mentions of panic attack

"Aether- You're up next, when you're ready i'll tell the others so we can-"

Albedo's words stop short when he sees his friend on the ground, curled up into a ball and shaking intensely.

He places his notice board gently before dropping to his knees and pulling Aether into a tight hug, "Hey, is it another one again?" He whispered quietly.

The latter nodded desperately against his chest and pulled away, panicked gasps being forced out of his lungs and tears streaks covering his face. Albedo took off his jacket and carried the other onto a couch, after he settled him down, he pulled out his phone and sent a quick text to hold off introducing Aether to the crowd.

"Okay, i told Amber to hold off introducing you, don't worry.. Venti is probably showing everyone a party trick he learned.." The manager took a respective seat next to the main vocalist, Aether was still having a hard time breathing and concentrating.

"fuck im.. im so sorry Albedo- i should be out there performing for Klee's birthday party but i don't know i just got really scared and the next thing i knew i-"

"Aether, its okay. I'm sure she would understand your situation, how about let's focus on steadying your breathing?"

Aether's head whipped around and got really close to Albedo's face, "B-but!"

Albedo placed a gentle finger on his lips.

"Shhh. Just listen to me okay?"

Aether suddenly had lost all senses of breathing, if his problem earlier was breathing too much.. His problem now was breathing too little, he closed his eyes as his shoulders slowly soften its harsh posture, he relaxed against the fingertip on his lips as if it were a second instinct.

Albedo slowly takes off his finger when he realizes that he might have crossed the line when it came to personal space, a warn blush washed across his face.

"W-what does Lumine do.. when you have panic attacks like these?" He looks away to attempt lifting the tension.

"she likes to put my head on her lap, cause she told me that panic attacks can make people dizzy, so it's best to have someone who can ground you when your flying away." Aether recalled timidly.

With some careful thinking and a quick glance around the room, Albedo sat back and placed a soft blanket over his lap before patting it as an invitation.

"Here.. Lay down and rest until you're better" Albedo offered to the other.

Aether blushed in embarrassment and he felt his lungs acting up again, "It's okay! You dont have to really- Its just a childish thing me and Lumine did as kids- its not like it helps me relax instantly or anything-"

Albedo bit his lip and looked away, his hands curled up into soft fists as he blushed the same way Aether is now.

"I know I'm not obliged to assist you to these lengths, but as a manager.. and a friend, i care about you a lot..." He muttered under his gentle breaths, his platinum blonde locks covering half of his face so Aether could only imagine how flustered his manager could be right now.

"So please.. As a friend, let me take care of you? As a way of showing my concern and love for you... U-ummm.. a-as a friend-"

Aether couldn't help but smile softly at the shy Albedo, he sighed before nervously adjusting his position on the couch and while using his manager's jacket as a blanket, laid down on his lap.

[surprise-sapphic]

Okay, hear me out.

Unrequited Albedo x Aether, they're both in love with each other but circumstances just aren't in their favor. Aether is bound to travel nations far and wide, even worlds away while Albedo is destined to lose control one day and maybe destroy everything he loves.

It's tragic, and I'm 100% here for it.

"Celestia has indeed blessed us with a perfect day... wouldn't you agree?"

"you spilt tea all over me, Yae.."

Two women of power enjoy a fine picnic together on a peaceful afternoon, until the buzzing energy in the air became impossible to ignore.

Can one's bad mood be easily lifted?

EiMiko, picnic date (fluff)

There was a troubling sensation of electricity crackling through the air, their usual light-hearted picnic now had this heavy tingling feeling in their surroundings.

One of Yae's writers missed their deadline.

"Dear.. would you like some more tea?" A gentle and considerate voice calling out to her. Slowly the irritating oxygen calms down for a moment, enough for the fox lady to take a deep breath and focus on her lover's question regarding a refill.

Slightly furious fingers tangle through her pink locks before resting on a miniature tea cup, "Yes please.. I would appreciate more tea very much right now-"

Ei sits up from her place, carefully pouring tea into Yae's cup. Before setting down the pot, her fingers were pushing away light novels and manuscripts all scattering across their picnic blanket alongside some abandoned snack wrappers and plastics.

A smile gracing her lips, she sips the savoring tea before letting out her troubles in one heavy breath. "I must apologize, our picnic is may not be so delightful because of my bad mood.. One of my writer's very ambitious light novel series has been delayed. We had already set a launch date, but received no promising results."

"Shall I strike them down with lightning?"

Yae turns to see her lover smirking, her mischevious comment hiding behind the small bar of chocolate between her lips. Ei isn't the type to inhabit a prankster-like nature, but she has always appreciates the efforts to help her lighten up a little.

"I would very much appreciate it, maybe your lighting strike will finally grant him the muse he was longing for~" The follow up comment allowing for gentle giggling and soft touching to ensue, Ei sits closer to her partner and lovingly kisses her shoulder.

There was an intimate understanding between the pair, as if words weren't necessary to communicate partnership and mutual understanding. Yae could tell the small talk was lifting up the heavy atmosphere. As she felt soft fingers holding her wrist, dragging it away from her secret stash of papers she brought.

"Take a break, they are incompetent but you shouldn't suffer from their failures."

She feels the soft breeze enveloping their moment with each other. Yae takes a second to breath in the air, and it's electric sensation was being replaced with the delightful smell of flowers. Which type of flower is impossible to identify, however she still appreciated the light surroundings.

Placing a kiss on Ei's forehead before snaking her arm around the latter's waist, slowly but surely the picnic was finally shifting her attention back from frustrating work matters to her loving mutual instead.

"My dear, did you eat all the sweets I bought? I take it that you like the chocolates?~" She asked, observing how some specks of coco decorate Ei's lips.

A moment of self-awareness strikes the clueless electro archon, before sitting up and promptly wiping her chocolate lips.

"Excuse me, sweets are making me forget my manners. They're just so savory~"

"Then I will get more, it is quite easy to commision chocolate from Sumeru these days since that new delivery business opened up.." Yae promises, she takes a small bite of her biscuits before drinking in some tea once more. The flavors mixing well with another, creating this delicious blend of warm sweetness and fresh fruit.

Yae feels soft lips meeting her own for a brief moment, looking down and seeing the culprit with a soft blush on her face.

"Thank you, for spending time with me."

She reaches down and held up Ei's face, before pressing her mouth against those sweet lips of hers. The warm taste of everything her lover had to offer her in this moment, officially lifting her spirits.

"I love you too, darling"
