I wanted do draw something, so I ended up choosing to draw Juliana, my boss, and Jenny, and their journey throught transition, since these are important steps in someone's life, and yarayarayara. So here it is. Jenny doesn't have a deadname because it was not useful, and I'm not the type of guy to give deadnames to my ocs without a reason. Juliana on the other hand has a very important deadname, so lol, what can I do? Support the trans girlies, guys and whatever there is else

Juliana was in the army, she would never choose a haircut like the one in 2018 if she had an option. (I hate these kind of haircuts, sorry Juliana) In movies characters from the US usually have only a name and a surname, and that is so weird like lol girl, you only have one surname? I have three. Gringos being gringos, no offense.

How come I, the autistic guy that is playing Saints Row Reboot since the release, have never noticed how Gwen is disabled?

Like. Could they make less obvious?

Don't get me wrong, I now love her even more, but like. I just noticed watching the DLC cutscene for a friend. DLC that I have played 2, 3 times. From a game that I have finished 4, 5 times.

They had the spirit when making her, now the only thing remaining to do is make it visible lol

Queen Gwen.

I like my job, don't get it wrong. I work at an "atacadão", aka a very very big market. I am the one that put everything in the shelfs along my collegues and put the price tags in place. It is a very easy, but very very tiring job. That is ok, it is an essencial job.

But I gain the equivalent to 240 dollars. That is nothing. I don't have to support and raise a family, and am working only to buy the cool stuff that I want and help my parents with the bills.

However, these days I heard a collegue of mine crying in the locker room. She was saying that her brother was with a tumor, and lamenting how she has no way to pay to help him survive. And, man, that left me thinking a lot. I felt powereless.

(yes, here we do have a universal system of health, but it doesn't work as it should, so the queues are giant)

How does someone live a month having a family to support with only 240 dollars? Bills, food, water, energy, gas, all of that to the rest of the family. I have loved ones that live in peripheries, a family of a bunch of people, with only that or less to live. How is that fair? 240 dollars, or what it is, 1300 and a little reais... that is NOTHING. My friends, you need 2-3 salaries to buy a Switch. A laptop that is good 6-7 salaries. The cosplay I'm gathering for 3-4 salaries, and the shamisen I want to buy 4 salaries. Do you all understand how much that is where I live? It is nothing. HOW. IS. THAT. FAIR? Well ladies, gentlemen and creatures of the night. Capitalism. Anyway, hope my job doesn't find this one lol

Don't get me wrong, forgetting the story (that could be better, some day I will come here with a full rewrite of this game... maybe when I'm not working), the Reboot is a pretty nice game, and I like it a lot. It holds a special place in my heart.

BUT

B U T

My man, what is this game's love with aim assistance? I understand, acessibility, as a disabled person that makes me happy. However, I like playing without it. And EVEN IF YOU TURN IT OFF, THERE IS STILL SOME LEFTOVER???? GAME, LET ME PLAY WITHOUT IT, COME ON. It just end up bothering me, because I try to go for the head and it puts in the person's chest.

I hate IA doing stuff for me on everything. I don't use stabilizer when drawing, I don't use aim assist when playing and when the robots take aim at my head for being rebelious in the coup, I'm gonna day happy knowing I never fell to their hands. oh, yes, the reboot. nice game.

My guys, I found a drawing that I like way too much of my Boss, Juliana, and Jenny (yes, the Jaros one), but from the Reboot.

Jenny got a gap between her two front tooth in the Reboot, since in this universe she still haven't had the money to transition completely or to "fix" her teeth. I think this make her even cuter.

I also got these two drawings that I made from prints of the game, as studies!

Ju (aka Juliana Jaros)

Jenny (aka Jayane Jaros)

Nowadays they are ooooold, so I know some things I should have done better, like the contrast, but that doesn't make me like them less.

And again, latinas trans girlies

I started saying to my friends that in my universe Benjamin King was a Drag Queen in the 70s/80s and is gay just to piss off those kind of people in the fandom, but now? Slay queen. Benjamin Queen. I even drew this some time ago, for last year pride month.

(Jenny and my Boss Juliana in the two first pictures, my Boss Juliana and Benjamin on the last)

Just wanting to put that beautiful image in your guys mind. Please don't kill me LOL

In this house we love Benjamin King

Using pride month to make a thanks to Saints Row and it's community. I just accepted that I was queer because of this amazing game and it's surroundings.

I started playing it with nine years old (what is something to worry), but during my adolescence I went through a lot with all the trans and lesbian thoughts.

And non-ironically what made me go at peace with it was Saints Row. Boss' neopronouns, it's opening with queerness, being able to make a Boss that was trans just like me, and being able to make her like women too. CID existing. Saints Row IV's romance stuff.

Man, until I was 15 I didn't even understand English right, but it's message was so clear that I understood.

And Tumblr, even tho I was not posting, made me comfortable too.

So thanks Tumblr. Thanks Saints Row. And thanks to everyone that made it happen. I would not be here if wasn't for you guys.

Thanks to my job, my foot got rolled over by a pallet loader, so I am at home having time to have hobies! With that said, I made fanart of Jenny Jaros and my Boss, Juliana!

Just a fast drawing, yknow.

And, I also am using this opportunity to show a Christmas fanart I made of both some time ago, so yall have an ideia of them painted.

Trans latinas girlies (that also are together in the reboot, how romantic)

Curiosity: Jenny in my universe's name is Jayane, but she got fed up of people saying it wrong and got the nickname Jenny. So her name is Jayane Jaros, and my Boss' name is Juliana Jaros. Kinda cute how they match lol

[johnnydorock]

Straight up just saying that SR IV is canon because I love CID. When do we have the loophole in the code to say that a character is a he/him lesbian alien that after centuries locked in a simulation goes out of it only for women in other games?

Cause yknow, he is in the codes as a woman. And he loves women. And even Boss questions if he is really a guy.

In this house, we love CID.
