Art reminder! 8|

YES, I know that I said I’d post another Minecraft drawing MONTHS ago, but the thing is that (at the moment) I’m not really in the Minecraft fandom anymore. The other problem is that I don’t know where the drawing is and I think I haven’t even finished it yet. But I said I’d post it, so I will soon (I hope)!

[not-gae-cuz-i-like-straight-wae]

New lay-out! :)

I changed the lay-out of my blog a little bit and made it less “hetero pride”-like. That’s partly because I feel like it’s pretty NORMAL to be straight (though I must say that these days, I actually AM pretty happy to be normal). However, the main reason I changed some things, is because someone once reminded me that this is a BLOG, which meant that my account (username and profile name) wouldn’t necessarily have to match what my blog is about, but that it WOULD be better to have a matching banner and blog-title. So yeah. I agreed on that and this is the new lay-out! I didn’t make it Minecraft related (yet), because I’m not certain whether or not I’ll only make Minecraft art or art from different fandoms as well in the future (that is, if I even will post anything in the future, haha). I might make some (Minecraft) art for the banner some other time, but for now, it is what it is.

Response to ABC is getting canceled (at least for now)

This might come pretty much out of the blue, but I said would probably still respond to that one message of "ABC" about lgbt+, but I probably won't. First of all, I totally forgot about it in the meantime. Second of all, such things were not the reason I created this account, not to mention that I also just don't feel like typing such a long response about this topic right now (because I'm sure it'd be a long essay-like text). Thirdly, I'm not that active on Tumblr anyway, since I'm too busy. Like, I don't even have any time to make Minecraft related content that I can post on my blog, so leave alone other kinds of content. Hahah. Now I haven't said I absolutely WILL NOT respond to it anymore, but I just probably won't.

So... just don't wait for it or anything. Don't expect it to be posted (any time soon).

Okay. That's all.

Byeeeeee!!!!!!

[not-gae-cuz-i-like-straight-wae]

I'm making a drawing of...

... the gang playing baseball, because...

... I wanted to draw them playing baseball...

... for literally...

... no reason...

... AT ALL...

I'm still trying to make sure I'll have some free time soon so I can finish the drawing, photograph it and post it here and maybe then, I will be able to make and post some new content too!

Hope y'all will hear from me SOON again, but for now...

BYEEE!

[not-gae-cuz-i-like-straight-wae]

WAHAHAHAAA!!!

I have ceased for yet another month. My apologies! {8^(

It's not that I don't draw anymore, but a lot of those drawings I did make on paper already got texts and other stuff on it and that just doesn't look nice. °OvO

Furthermore, I don't draw a lot on my laptop/phone anymore, so that's another reason why I haven't posted anything recently. :/

And I'm just too busy to spend a lot of time on tumblr... ;-;

[not-gae-cuz-i-like-straight-wae]

A little bit more information about my newly introduced OC

Greg doesn't know...

... that his name actually used to be Gregory. Greg is actually a nickname too. He just doesn't even know it himself. It's the name they gave him.

... what kind of Illagers his parents were. They were, unlike Greg and his twin sister (who both are Evokers), Pillagers. And yes, they died. Greg doesn't mourn their death. He feels like they just left him to his horrible fate. He sees them as weaklings, who fled their fears by dying, leaving him (and his twin sister) alone in the darkness.

... his twin sister's name. It's Abigail. They never speak to each other and rarely even see each other (actually, only Abigail checks on him once in a while out of curiosity, but she usually stays far away and hidden from his view). Abigail is way better off, but she as well is scarred for live. Even so, Greg hates her for having been able to get away, while he couldn't. She too, fled. As a weakling.

... his exact birth date. He only knows what his year of birth is and that the last time he celebrated his birthday, his fifth birthday, it was (close to) the middle of spring. A while before summer would start (with summer starting in June). That's why he pretends his birthday to be on the 27th of April, but actually, his real birthday date is the 4th of May. Shortly after, The Day arrived and they took him and mercilessly-

One by one, these truths don't really matter, though... After all, Greg doesn't and possibly will never figure out any of these things. Especially not while still being in such a poor mental state. While still being in that void in which he's trapped. To think everything came to be as how it is now, merely because of what happened on The Day...

[not-gae-cuz-i-like-straight-wae]

Me: Ugh... Then I might as well introduce him to all of you right away.

Greg: Good job...

Me: Shut up you! I'm the one talking! *glares angrily*

Greg: ...

Greg: Whatever. *walks away*

Me: So... Let's start...

----------

As you've heard now, this is my OC Greg.

GREG BELONGS TO A SIDELINE, CALLED "PLOT: TWISTED".

You all know how much I like wordplays, so this sideline is called "Plot: Twisted", because:

1. It's a plot twist to my account.

2. The storyline is not exactly about... err... straightness... and the quite literal opposite of straightness could certainly be twisted.

3. The story is pretty dark, or - in other words - twisted...

More about Greg himself now...

He's a 40-years old Evoker (obviously) and pretty much the main antagonist of the story if you'd be looking from Eric's point of view. (From his point of view, he's also a victim. I didn't add the chains in the background for no reason...)

However, he's not a full, but rather a semi-villain, meaning he doesn't do much "Illager stuff", like invading villages, attacking Heroes and that sort of things.

Other Illagers think he's incapable of doing such activities, but honestly, I think Greg just doesn't want to associate with other Illagers or be part of an Illager tribe at all. He probably also thinks other activities are more fun or interesting than blindly killing everyone on his path. Or... maybe he really is incapable of functioning well in a Woodland Mansion and taking part in a raids. Maybe being incapable of doing so is (one of) the reason(s) why he preferes to avoid all other Illagers...

All, except for Eric, that is.

Furthermore, Greg is that character I spoke about earlier in that same post about scenarios and sidelines. I referred to him as one of my sideline characters (along with Cate) and "a yet unnamed doctor", because he didn't have a name back then. I was like "what name should he have" for weeks. I thought of many names, with - for example - one of the best options being Francis, but that's also a character of a game I like, so that was a bit strange. Eventually, I almost called him Craig (because initially, I prefered it over Greg), but it was too hard to pronounce for me, so eventually, he got named Greg anyway and I'm really satisfied with that now.

Like I said, Greg is an insane doctor. A bad-guy doctor who lost his mind is kinda cliche, but unlike other similar characters, science helped him to actually regain his sanity (partly) instead of the other way around and instead of using it for evil activities, he just likes science a lot (because it keeps him busy and thus, bad memories are less likely to arise in his head).

What else is there left to say...?

Oh, yeah... his whole backstory maybe? Unfortunately for you, that's for you to figure out... It's, as I said, dark and twisted and I even can't explain it all just like that. So... through hints and clues... you might figure it all out...

Later on, I will tell and show more of the storyline, but for now, the mystery is yours to guess and perhaps even... solve?

[not-gae-cuz-i-like-straight-wae]

Me: Well, look at that. I managed to post something today! :)

...

W-Wait... 8|

...

WAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIT!!!!! \ :^0

WHAAAAAAAAAAT??? >8^[

NOOOOO!!! YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO BE HERE, GREG!!! I TOLD YOU NOT TO SHOW UP!!! JUST WHY WON'T YOU LISTEN TO MEEEEE??? \(ò_ó)/

AAAAAAAAAARGH!!! \(>o<)/

----------

Greg: Too bad for you! >=P

I'm came here anyway! XD

You can't stop me from trespassing your rules! \(ÒwÓ)/

MUHAHAHAHAHA!!! \(^o^)/

[not-gae-cuz-i-like-straight-wae]

I meant "headcanon" earlier...

... when I was talking about scenarios and sidelines and said "canon to my storylines", by the way. At least, I think that's the correct term to use???

In short (again): Scenarios >> things that COULD happen in my headcanons, but are not 100% determined to happen (yet). Or things that (probably) WILL happen at some point in my headcanon.

Sidelines >> Stories of which I know for sure, that it won't be part of my actual headcanons. The best way to explain it, is that I created headcanons and I make fanfictions of it myself.

And I had a much longer explanation about sidelines and stuff that's somewhere on my blog, but I also wrote this shorter text in a more recent post of mine: "they [sideline characters] belong to a non-canon storyline of my already non-canon stories... it's sort of like fanfictions of my own fanfiction, because I could also just make entirely different stories, but I just like Eric so much that I wanted him to be part of those other stories too". So that's basically it.

[not-gae-cuz-i-like-straight-wae]

Am I still alive?

Yes, but actua- Err... I mean:

No, but actually yes.

I'll really try to post something soon, but... my apologies in advance if it all gets delayed anyway...

Something happened to my laptop and I can't get access to it right know.

So I gotta use my phone to draw stuff.

Y'all hear from me.

[not-gae-cuz-i-like-straight-wae]

Some more (even older) drawings of the canon gang of Villagers and Illager from Minecraft Dungeons: Rise of the Arch-Illager.

I intended to remake this all on the laptop too, but I'm too lazy and I got no time. However, I want to keep on posting stuff, so photos of drawings on paper it will be! =P

Two things: 1. I have no idea why I drew Walda and Yumi as "friends", but let's just say it's because they form the "girl squad" of the game.

2. Yes, the upper one is the weirdest drawing of Archie you'll ever see. (And the ink of my pen ruined his right eye. Crap.)

[not-gae-cuz-i-like-straight-wae]

Again... humanized chibi Eric! :)

He looks a bit different this time, but literally every time I draw a character, it looks slightly different from all other drawings of that character.

Another drawing I drew in my notebook, by the way, because I'm bored during class...

I have nothing else to say.

[not-gae-cuz-i-like-straight-wae]

Now I need...

... to make some art real quick, because I don’t want my upper post to be about lgbt+. Even better, when I created this account, I didn’t plan on writing even any post about lgbt+. I merely wanted my account to be themed the way it is, but then that first person scolded me on his/her blog (I mean, I had already received commentary from various people, but those were in private chats), I responded to it and thereafter, Jeansaaa came into the picture as well. Now I also intend on answering some things from a private chat on my blog (with of course that person’s permission, because a private chat isn’t called a private chat for nothing and I know that), so this won’t be the last time you’ll see me writing about lgbt+ (unless you don’t look, hahaha). I just hope it doesn’t appear among the Arch-Illager / Minecraft Dungeons tagged posts again (if what Jeansaaa said was true), because that wasn’t exactly meant to happen. Ok, byeee!

[not-gae-cuz-i-like-straight-wae]

Part 2: Here we go again

So Jeansaaa wrote another message and I don't feel like putting too much effort in my answer, because I actually shouldn't give him/her any more attention, but I think I can make things even a bit more clear this time for all other people out here on Tumblr. Also, I blocked him/her now instead, because she/he seems to be incapable of keeping me blocked... I'm gonna talk to him/her, so I'll use "you", because that's more easy and direct then him/her or they.

----------

You first started of by saying (in the title) that you made a response post becasue responding to a re-blog in mobile is hard (smiley included), which is not very important... Then you followed with "for context look at my re-blog below" and thereafter, your message actually started.

Before I copy-paste the first part I'm responding to, I wanna say: use punctuation, dude! Your whole message is like one long sentence with commas.

----------

Okay, that being said, let’s begin:

I just wanna be done with This,  the reason why I texted this 🙃 (the “smiley face”) after I said “don’t worry i’ll block you” is because it was supposed to be passive aggressive, I un-blocked you by accident (because I’m a clumsy mess, and I didn’t even know I un-blocked you until after you private messaged me about it), and I told people to block you, because this kind of stuff can make people incredibly uncomfortable,(and you’re being blatantly homophobic which I’m sure nobody within the lgbtq+ Community would like to see that)

Yeah, I'm glad I decided on blocking you myself! I'm not someone who blocks others. I'm not gonna hide from someone that doesn't share my opinion. Just acting like a little child and press that block button. I'd rather have normal conversations or even discussions like not-little-kids, teens and adults do (that's why I take so much time to explain myself as much as possible), but that blocking-unblocking-blocking-unblocking started to become quite annoying.

Also, I think people can decide for themselves whether they wanna block me or not. We're not all imbeciles, you know? And probably the only reason why people would even go to your blog and see you telling them to block me, is because of me. Right now, you literally got seven posts and almost all of them have to do with me (exceptions: 2). Kinda feel honored, really, but I actually pretty much regret bringing you in the spotlight now. If I hadn't reblogged your post, I doubt it if anyone would've ever seen your blog...

no matter how much you sugar coat it, supporting straight pride is under the umbrella of homophobia,

It's not, though. Don't make up your own definitions. Homophobia is showing dislike of or prejudice against gay people.

you’re basically saying that putting up lgbtq+ posters, making lgbtq+ safe-spaces won’t work, and you’re wrong, I live in Florida, a very anti-lgbtq+ State, I’ve been a victim of homophobia / transphobia ,

Posters won't stop homophobia / transphobia. Neither people who don't like your behaviour nor people who already accept your behaviour will change their behaviour because of a poster. Or at the very least, it will only anger those "very-dangerous-straights-that-hunt-you-guys" that you're talking about, more. But I know why you like those posters. You want those posters to be hanged up because you want to be the "star of the show". And that, I have to admit, IS working.

and when I see a poster, or even just a small sticker saying, lgbtq+ safe space, it just makes me feel better about myself ,

Honestly, that you need POSTERS and STICKERS to make you feel better about yourself, already tells me more than enough about your self confidence. WOW.

and yes you’re not “victimized”or “oppressed” if you Truly think you are

Dude, I literally said I know I'm not (in real life, because online, the story is a lot different these days).

answer this , have you’re parents ever kicked you out for being straight?, have you ever been bullied for being straight?, have you been called slurs for being straight?, have you ever hated yourself for being straight?,

No, why would I get kicked out / bullied / called a slur? WHY would I hate myself? I seriously don't know how to respond to this. Just an example: if a alcohol addicted person would ask me "have YOU ever felt bad for NOT feeling the need to drink?" I'd also be like... "Err. NO."

and about the gay friends, what you said is basically the same as, “I’m not racist because I have black Friends”, it doesn’t matter what friends you have your still homophobic. (Sorry if the formatting is weird, i’m not the best at writing, but I hope I got the point across)

I hate that nasty habit of you all to make comparisons with racism in discussions with lgbt+ topics. It's not the same! I know it's a filthy trick of yours to pretend like it IS all the same, but I'm not falling for that! I'm NOT a racist! Besides, I didn't say "I'm not homophobic, because I have gay friends". It was just something I added. I did give enough actual reasons for why I'm not homophobic, though.

This time, to even clearify that point MORE (when will I ever be done clearifying myself, hahaha), I'm gonna take that alcohol addicted person (shortening it to: AAP) as an example again. I don't support people to be alcohol addicted. It's their own choice. Imagine if that AAP wants to campaign for allowing drunk people to drive. I'm very much against that. The AAP gives alcohol to his/her children (and might pass the addiction to them). I'm most definitely against that too (because it has impact on the next generation). When he's/she's in the mood, the AAP drinks him-/herself half to death. I find that disgusting. I find it inhuman. I find that this person should work on some self-control over his/her desires! Having all these thoughts about the AAP, still doesn't make me AAP-phobic, though. Because if this person encounters me (in a not drunk state, of course), I will act normally towards him/her. I might tell him/her what I think about the addiction, but I'm not being a hateful person by doing so. I don't show dislike / prejustice against people that are addicted to alcohol (I also don't know why I should have to know about someone's alcohol addiction in the first place). And if the whole world starts to campaign for all AAP's due to an agenda that's been executed and they push it all in my and everyone’s face and I'm against THAT, it STILL doesn't make me AAP-phobic. That would make me AAP-agenda-phobic. Or that would make me changing-the-world-wrongly-phobic. Or altering-general-morality-phobic. Because YES. That IS what I am. I'm not lgbtqabcxyz-phobic, but I'm most certainly against all this brainwashing and mindcontrolling that's happening nowadays. This is what I told someone recently in a similar discussion (it’s “ABC”, the person I still intend to respond to on my blog and I wrote this in our private chat too):

“Look, you just can't expect everyone to just accept everything. You can't expect everyone to alter the vision of reality. You can't expect everyone to just be a leaf in the wind. To go with the flow. I know lots of people are like that, but I'm not. If they would suddenly tell me eating through your ears is just as normal as through your mouth, no matter how many people would agree with that, no matter how many people would tell me I'm crazy for thinking otherwise, my opinion would remain unchanged. That's just me. I don't wanna be a leaf. I'd rather be a tree. Only I'd try to stay in my grounds even during thunderstorms or in a hurricane... Hopefully, you can understand that.”

----------

Jeansaaa’s message ended here initially, but then:

Edit: holy fucking shit, I re-read  you’re response, it’s even worse then I remember, so I will add a bit more to this,

All right first of all you said being lgbtq+ was ABNORMAL,  (wow that is really not helping your case) it’s not at all, it’s just as “normal” as being straight, people have been lgbtq+  for fucking CENTURIES,

Even now, lgbt+ still ISN’T the NORM in the world (I know some would love to see that differently, but I’m (not) afraid that won��t ever be the case). So that’s a FACT. And yes, a lot of people have been a lot of things for centuries, but what kind of argument is that?! That people are or do something, doesn’t make it normal. Some people are in jail. Some people are in mad houses. Some psychopaths walk around freely, but does that mean all that is normal too? No, it doesn’t. Your argument is bad. VERY bad.

even animals can be gay, if you do even the slightest bit of research you’ll see

And you know when? When they’re in ABNORMAL situations!

( but Seeing how your skull is as thick as concrete, you probably won’t ),

Thanks! I’m taking that as a compliment! I’m very happy if my skull really is as thick as concrete instead of as thin as paper (or even thinner)! Or else everyone (such as (social) media) would be able to just fill my head with whatever they want! Mold and knead me however they please! That would be one of the last things I’d want to happen. I got a brain for a reason. I got a brain to use it. To think for myself, using logic and not other people’s opinions.

now let’s move onto the second homophobic thing you said, you don’t support the lgbtq+ movement because of a so-called “ agenda”, why are you so mad?, Is it because straight relationships aren’t pushed in your face as much as it was back then?, ( magazines, Books, TV shows, billboards,  straight relationships are literally everywhere and you’re COMPLAINING) you probably saw like one poster one day with a gay couple and freaked out,

Firstly, I’m not the “mad” one here. I’m angry about various things, but not “mad”. Secondly, straight relationships indeed aren’t pushed in my face as much as it was in back in the old days, but I don’t care about that. It’s lgbt+ that’s been forcefully pushed in my face CONSTANTLY (and it is) that bothers me so much!

Because NO. I didn’t “saw like one poster one day with a gay couple and freaked out”. That’s what I’ve been telling / explaining since pretty much my very first post about this! Saying this, makes me wonder if you can even read? Or else, you’ve obviously not read the parts of my posts in which I spoke about the hundreds of lgbt+ flags, many lgbt+ zebra crossings and lgbt+ wall paintings, lgbt+ public transport vehicles and to that list I can add the lgbt+ posters and stickers you spoke about, all lgbt+ promoting articles, shows and programms on the news everywhere (news papers and online) and on television, initiatives and activities of schools because of lgbt+, the countless lgbt+ campaigns that are being held, all other kinds of lgbt+ support of millions of people that just follow the herd AND the entire internet, including - of course - our most favorite straightphobic place, Tumblr (and I believe Twitter is pretty much like that (or even worse) as well). And who knows what else I’m not even aware of?! Ah, yes. And NOT to forget: the entire PRIDE MONTH. Because your kind of people are better than us straights, aren’t you?!

Really “like one poster one day with a gay couple”. REALLY.

please just stop,

I stop whenever I want...

nothing is gonna convince me that you’re not homophobic, because you’re clearly are

Nothing is gonna convince ME that you’re not STUPID, because you (not “you’re”) clearly are, stupid.

----------

I’m not even gonna respond extensively to the tags. They’re the stupidest things ever. I’ve never tagged my lgbt+ posts with the Arch-Illager OR Minecraft Dungeons tag, so Jeansaaa is just being a jerk for doing that anyway.

----------

That’s all. It turned out to be a very long response. Once I start typing, the words just flow from my head to and out of my fingers on the keyboard to the screen. And that. That was indeed a strange sentence. But... poetic... right? (No? Oh.)

[not-gae-cuz-i-like-straight-wae]

So many muches

Here are a few drawings for y'all!!! I was too lazy to remake this all on the laptop, so I decided to just make a photo. I might remake it some day, but knowing me, it probably won't be any time soon.

----------

So Archie, Thord, Walda, Salah and Yumi are, of course, the canon Minecraft Dungeons characters.

Eric (EvokER) is (obviously) my main Minecraft Dungeons OC. I really love mah smwol freckled ginger boi. I don't even know why. I just do. Most that you've seen and read here before this post is about him and that will probably remain the case, whether you like it or not *instert evil laughter*!

Phil ("PHIL"ager) and George belong to one of the "sideline's" (the full explanation about "sideline's" and stuff is in a previous message, but in short: they belong to a non-canon storyline of my already non-canon stories... it's sort of like fanfictions of my own fanfiction, because I could also just make entirely different stories, but I just like Eric so much that I wanted him to be part of those other stories too). They're father and son.

Cate (Vindi"CATE"or) and Donna belong to another "sideline". They're sisters. You probably won't be seeing much of this "sideline", because I once made it up, but I didn't like it that much. However, Cate is one of my first Illager OC's (due to her name, because I first gave every Minecraft (Dungeons) Illager OC of mine a "wordplay" name).

Naomi (my somewhat yandere anime Villager) does belong to an entirely different story (because she plays a role in a story along with someone else's characters and one of those characters is Naomi's boyfriend).

Lara (VilLAgeR) is actually... nobody... yet. She's an earlier made character than a lot of OC's that I drew here, but even so, she's merely a character without a decided story or something alike. She only has an appearance, name and age. And she's very blocky.

And then there was another character in the photo... but... he's... cropped out... and scratched through... twice... because of... *whispers* a reason...

----------

Sometimes, though, I don't care at all about "sidelines" and different stories and then I just draw everyone in one picture... like I did here.

Lastly, I don't know either why Walda is carrying Thord. I really don't know.

About their ages: I just wanted Walda not to be very old and Thord couldn't be too old, because I wanted Archie to be as young as possible to get banished from an Illager tribe (and I thought the age of 16 would then be the minimum). Then if Thord started bullying him since childhood (let's say, since Archie was 9 or younger), Thord would still be kinda young too (18 years old or younger). I mean, I just didn't want a big age difference between the two of them, because it would only make Thord seem like a bigger fool (and jerk) if he'd bully a kid while he was a full-grown adult.

And when I had made these drawings (and that is quite a while ago), I hadn't draw Salah anymore for some time, so he just didn't care and broke the fourth wall.

[not-gae-cuz-i-like-straight-wae]

Me and nicknames

Some of you may have noticed that literally EVERY single one of my Minecraft Dungeons OC's that I've posted art of on tumblr until now, has got a real name and a nickname. Kinda funny, because I used to dislike it when people did that. I was like: 'Why do they always give characters nicknames? It's not as if that's also always the case in real life. So annoying!' However, I started to name all Eric's Vexes Terry, Jerry, etcetera (because I thought it was funny) and then I decided that I wanted to give them more "individual" names too. And then Eric (EvokER > ERic) and Ron (IRON Golem > RON) also got their longer names. The story is that Eric basically named them all like that (and he's been given that name by his parents) because of the same reasons that I had.

[not-gae-cuz-i-like-straight-wae]

Mah chibi ginger boi

I'm SO BUSY lately, but I HAVE to post SOMETHING. So here is a... err... humanized chibi Eric, because drawing a humanized Eric takes me too long and I had not enough space either (for the record: I drew this in my notebook). Also, enjoy the beautiful correction fluid. And yes, Eric is obviously a ginger.

Very fun fact: I gave Eric his name because I thought it suited him, but mostly because "evoker" ends with "er" and "Eric" starts with those same letters. I quickly became curious to find out its meaning and were that name even came from. It turned out to be derived from the old Norse name: Eiríkr (and I then decided that his actual name would be that name and Eric would be more of a nickname). However, it was just yesterday that I realized that Northern countries (such as Norway) are the countries where the percentage of redhairs are the highest in the world! What a coincidence!

And I kinda liked the meaning of the (original) name as well, since some of the words that could be used to translate the parts of the name, were "alone" and "powerful" which both apply to Eric, since he is... well... alone and powerful (he only doesn't know how to use his powers (correctly) yet).
