hi sorry to bother. i'm trying to find this one drawing that i'm like 99% certain you've done of like, the default appearance of every white queer person regardless of labels. like some short haired androgynous bespectacled person who you know at minimum 3 of. and everyone kept saying that 'that's literally me' because of course it is. did i just vividly make that up. i cannot find it with tumblr's notoriously bad search function. i wanted to make fun of my boss and like 5 separate other people i know.

YUUUUUUUUUUUUUP THAT WAS ME you are not crazy. this was the art

this is the post this is another version of the post

White Lily Cookie Clones

I first thought of this idea last year on the same month aka January and I was heavily inspired by the Grimwalkers from The Owl House cause I thought it would be neat

But throughout last year, I procrastinated on the designs and only did it if I wanted to. Now with White Lily Cookie in the game, I finished all the designs of the clones with finishing Lily Garden yesterday.

Instead of putting them in separate posts, I’ll put them all together with names and order they were created under the cut. Later, I put them in separate posts to save you time

Lily Orchid Cookie

Vanilla Lily Cookie

Lily Bouquet Cookie

Lily Pond Cookie

Lily Bud Cookie

Lily Garden Cookie

Actually no it pisses me the fuck off when people are like "this is for kids we can't hold it to high narrative standards" yes the fuck we can??? That's when we should??? And that's definitely when we should examine the implications and impact of a work, not just the intent behind it or the surface level stuff, because it's for children. They do not have the critical thinking skills that adult readers (hopefully) have developed, they are learning, and they will absorb a fuck ton of learned behaviors from story without ever realising. You have to look at kids media like "this has to be that deep actually" because kids are going to listen! Adults tell stories! Adults are authority so story is authority! There's an entire Sondheim song about this!!! ("Careful the things you say, children will listen" anybody???)

Cressida Cowell is my favorite example of this because her How to Train Your Dragon books almost definitely Weren't That Deep to begin with. (With the caveat that I am not her and so cannot be sure.) The first few books were very much "haha funny dragons, isn't it fun they can talk" - and then you can kind of watch in realtime over the course of the books as she realised the implications of having an entire group of sentient beings with their own language and culture be regularly kidnapped as infants by people who keep them as pets/weapons/tools - and instead of asking her child readers not to look at that, to pretend it's not that bad, she turns around and asks us to look closer. To consider what all this means, that the characters we know and love who don't seem like bad people have also participated in this all along. There are no easy answers! It's absolutely stomach turning, and though she speaks simply to the child reader she never pulls her punches! I'm sure there are people who have issues with her execution and I'm not here to say it's perfect but god. That's how to handle children's media with unfortunate implications. Lean into it, don't tell the kids to ignore it. That's how they learn to ignore all the real world shit, they end up with so much practice.

Just because something is how it is doesn't mean it's not worth looking closer. Teach children that from the start. Don't shy away from your characters participating in fucked up systems just because you think they need to be the good guys. If they're going to be good, make them good, and make them deal with the fallout when they're not.

so this pretty much confirms that dabi would absolutely skip the majority of his university lectures, right? or, at the very least, the ones he desperately doesn’t want to go to (*/ω＼*)

(i’m kidding, i know this game isn’t officially canon hehe)
