[ckret2]

hey ^^ I love your bill goldilocks cipher, and I was wondering why he possesses a female-presenting body. I am a huge fan of your art btw so don’t take this the wrong way, I just would love to know how you designed him!

The short answer: because he's canonically referred to with he/him pronouns.

The long answer: if you meet somebody who, at a first glance, appears to be anatomically female, and everyone refers to this person with he/him pronouns, you don't immediately know what's going on.

Maybe he's a trans man who's comfortable with his body the way it is as long as everyone around him still treats him as a man. Maybe she's a trans woman with really transphobic acquaintances. Maybe he's nonbinary, maybe he's genderfluid, maybe he's a drag queen who's dressed up for an event but not currently in character, maybe he's a he/him lesbian—you don't know, and it likely isn't your business.

There's only one thing you do know: whatever's going on here, it probably ain't cishet. This person has something going on that does not fit the gender binary. All you can say about him is that he's queer.

Bill's gender is triangle. This simply does not fit within humanity's popular ideas about the male-female binary. Whatever his sexual orientation is, it is not restricted to "only females/only males (as humanity defines femaleness/maleness)"—and so he can't possibly be heterosexual in a manner readily recognizable to human beings. Amongst Bill's own species, maybe he was the most cishet guy you've ever met, I haven't decided; but if you stick Bill amongst humans, regardless of how he sees himself, he'll look queer to us.

On top of that: stick Bill in a human body, and there's a disconnect between his self-identity and the shape he's wearing. Strangers will see him as something he's not: human. He feels trapped in a wrong-shaped form amongst people who think this is normal and what he feels he should be is strange—and if he ever explains that psychological weight of feeling wrong-shaped, the humans most likely to go "I think I get it" are the trans folks who know what dysphoria feels like.

I don't think Bill cares what pronouns humans give him; I think he's called "he/him" either because his human victims decided he sounds male-ish, or else because he consciously decided to take advantage of sexism by presenting himself as male to seem more authoritative. And I don't think Bill cares about the anatomy of the human body he's in; he could have been given any variety of genitalia, secondary sex characteristics, hormone balances, body fat distributions, etc., and he would have been equally uncomfortable in any because they're not a triangle. It makes no difference to him.

But it does something to you (you, The Readers In General): it makes you wonder about his relationship with his body.

Because we're speaking English on the Internet in the 21st century, you and I are participating in a culture that sees having both a vagina and he/him pronouns as Not The Default. It makes Bill look genderqueer-in-a-human-way, and that makes it easier to slide readers over to seeing him as genderqueer-in-a-nonhuman-way. It makes you think about queerness, about dysphoria, about nonbinary folks who defy the expected correlations between pronouns and anatomy without changing their bodies to make them "match."

This is the second or third time somebody's asked me why I put Bill in a female-presenting body. If I'd done the opposite, nobody would have ever asked me why I put Bill in a male-presenting body. Because that's "normal." And I want you to ask questions! I want you to think about Bill's self-image, his internal landscape, the gulf between who he is mentally and what he is physically.

Before I ever directly draw attention to queer topics, I can get folks primed to think about them and to understand that his body doesn't accurately represent his identity just by slapping a pair of boobs on him.

So I slapped a pair of boobs on him.

Five headcannons you have about Phone Guy ?

yayyyyy thank you so much for the ask this is the first time i've been asked about him !!! this ended up a bit long because i wanted to fit in all my important phone guy lore because i've never gotten the opportunity to talk about him

i apologize if this is a bit all over the place and hard to read i'm not good at putting my thoughts into words

also i might reblog with more if i think of anything big i missed

he drinks way too much coffee. he needs to stay awake and alert all the time so he can continue to be productive despite his inconsistent sleep schedule (he gets nightmares which get more and more frequent over time) (and he is also being overworked which is not a good combo) (he doesn't remember the last time he's had a day off) so he uses the caffeine as a way to make up for that. plus he also just genuinely likes how coffee tastes. he also used to smoke but he stopped when his ex wife (marilyn) was pregnant with fritz, so he at least got over that one (if i didn't mention it yet he is fritz's dad btw). caffeine is the only addiction that he still actively struggles with by the time he dies.

he has a confusing relationship with his gender. i think in the normal fnaf timeline he unfortunately dies an egg and never gets the chance to think about it fully but in any au where he lives past that and learns that being trans is a thing he would proceed to have a gender crisis. (fun fact in the au i made specifically for selfshipping daydream lore he is working that out in real time) (i am supporting him every step of the way :) ) he is questioning and he has no idea how he identifies at the moment but that guy is not a man. he does still have a trans pin in the normal fnaf timeline but he doesn't actually know what it means. he found it while cleaning the ballpit one day and decided to keep it because it was kinda neat. he IS trans but he doesn't know it yet. i generally still refer to him with he/him since those are the only pronouns he ever used but depending on the au i think eventually he might experiment with other pronouns in the future. change is scary though so it would definitely take him awhile to get to that point. especially since he's been repressing his emotions for so long. (EDIT: she is now using he/she pronouns :3)

i've touched on this one before but he was working the day his son was murdered. he brought fritz to work with him thinking he could multitask but phone got caught up with work and wasn't paying enough attention to notice fritz getting lured to the back room. he didn't notice his son was missing until it was too late. he absolutely blames himself for it and it eats him up inside. he goes through a messy divorce shortly after since marilyn blames him too. poor phone guy has no one left except his bosses. at least they always cared about him right? they saw his potential when no one else did and he was their best employee. except no they didn't. william was actively manipulating him to do his bidding and henry just didn't care about him at all. poor phone guy. but he still puts on a happy face and pretends everything is fine until he can't anymore. he also blames himself for the other missing children because he was too far in denial and desperately wanted to believe that it wasn't what it looked like so he didn't do anything to stop it when other kids started disappearing. he knew what was happening he just couldn't bring himself to accept it. and then it was too late. he hates himself for that.

he's helped william hide bodies. not the missing children obviously, but whenever other employees happen to know a little too much and they turn up dead in the morning, someone's gotta clean it up. he's had to sweep so much under the rug. it's horrible but phone guy can't say anything or else it will all get pinned on him. phone guy getting framed for murder wouldn't help the situation much either. maybe it was the cowards way out to give in to the blackmail but he was put in a horrible situation and made the choice he had to to get out of it. he helped dispose bodies of his coworkers. it doesn't help that he trusted william and looked up to him for so long. he was one of the only people to ever say he was proud of him. and look where he ended up.

i can't decide on another singular hc to write an entire paragraph on so here's a bunch of small ones instead:

he dabbled in theatre in highschool. he wasn't a dedicated theatre kid or anything and definitely didn't continue after graduating but he did good

he has a beautiful singing voice. he'll get embarrassed if you overhear him though

he witnessed both bites, and sees 87 as his own fault since jeremy was following the instructions phone gave him

he's a breakfast enjoyer :)

he was born in 1957 and died at the age of 36 . fritz was conceived when he was 21

similar to his gender, his sexuality is also a mystery. he's probably ace but as for romantic orientation who knows

he likes to read. it's one of the only hobbies he has time for

he likes sci-fi and is a fan of star trek

he idly hums while he works

when he was a kid his parents had very high expectations for him and expected him to do something big with his life. they weren't bad parents but they weren't the best either. they were very strict with him especially when it came to school. (gifted kid burnout weeeoo)

he has a little sister (phone dude's mom) however he doesn't really have any contact with her or anyone else in his family at the time of fnaf as they moved away from utah and he did not follow them.

i love all the phone biology hcs mentioned in @ask-the-phone (sorry if you didn't want to be tagged lmk i can remove it) so those apply to my phone guy as well. (he molts periodically, his mouth is on the receiver, esophagus cord, ect.)

gives the best hugs

touch starved and very easily flattered

//⚠️cw attempted suicide for the next couple //

this is a dark one but he went into fnaf one knowing full well he was going die, and to an extent hoping for it. this is when he was at his absolute lowest. he was never going to get through that week. i think if for whatever reason the animatronics didn't kill him he would've finished the job himself. he's scared of death but he couldn't imagine a future for himself and didn't think he even deserved one. fnaf 1 was an act of suicide. despite this he still tries to leave helpful reassuring messages for mike to help him survive the week, even up until his last moments.

he tried to take his own life after the bite of 87. maybe also after the divorce too. it didn't work and he just had to go back to work afterward and pretend he was okay. he was not.

[ok back to the other hcs]

fritz always used to put stickers on phone's face. he continues to wear the stickers to remember him

while his head is phone shaped it's entirely biological. it's essentially like a bug exoskeleton. he was born like that and it's not questioned because that's a completely normal way for people to look. sometimes people are just phones

his head is also functional as a phone though. don't ask me how

he purrs when he's comfy.

in the movie universe he is alive and well and living a life outside of freddy's. he worked there briefly and recorded some tapes and then left before it all went wrong. i guess in this au his bosses never really saw him as anything special this time. his son still dies and he probably still gets divorced but phone is able to move on and heal and live his own life. good for him.

i think if phone guy didn't work at freddy's he would've made a good teacher

he is so full of autism

very much a perfectionist unfortunately

not easily angered, but he can get frustrated at times. he bottles it up though so he seems fine until he finally snaps

and that's the list i came up with so far :) i might add more if i think of anything important i forgot but thank you so much for giving me an opportunity to finally talk about my phone guy !!! :)

edit:

-in honor of the news, his middle name is ralph, making his full legal name phone ralph guy (because that is just so funny to me)

edit edit: eventually she changes her name to phone kim guy

[chocotonez]

idol!gf is in an all-boys group (txt)

-“touch her and I’ll tell dispatch about you and that girl last friday” which is mostly a joke :)) (not to jun tho)

-at first it’ll take him a second to get used to, mainly because one co-ed groups this out of proportion are practically unheard of, and two because you’re his little baby and he doesn’t want you to be w a bunch of stinky guys 24/7

-probably makes sure they all can cook and clean and are worshipping the ground you walk on like the good boyfriend he is <3

soobin

-first he has TXT, and now your group is like his second batch of babies LOL

-“no I’m not going to convince your manager to do that-y/n! don’t enable them!!”

-“I can’t believe the love of my life is constantly with other men…” “gyu I am single-handedly paying for our Amazon prime account rn don’t even”

-he can be kinda sensitive about how much time and attention you spend on your members, but that’s mainly because he likes being your one and only!

-but he also likes to make fun of u w your members 💀 “did u guys take y/n because u felt bad or…”

-always makes sure he’s never being too mean w you <3 just wants to make people laugh

-likes to stand in your doorway w your members in the dorms like 🧍🧍🧍🧍, you’re not sure why they do this, your working theory is that they only have one communal brain cell

taehyun

-he trusts your members because you trust them, and he obviously trusts you not to do anything stupid (relationship-wise. he trusts you to do a lot of stupid things), but he always makes sure they’re helping you in the dorms or when you’re performing

-“don’t make y/n clean the cushions, that’s your mess!” and is just standing there like -_- while u laugh, hiding behind your muscle man boyfriend <3

-you were the one who spilt the chips

hueningkai

-if anything I think he’s just very confused

-“but why is there literally only one girl…why not two? or three?? why not all girls?? oh wait, that’s just a girl group”

-not even an insecurity thing, it’s just a hyuka thing

-“tell your member I said he did really good at that countdown stage” “Kai, he’s two feet away from us” “…I’m scared”

-clowns you if there’s a noticeable height difference between you and your members, thinks it’s so funny (it is not that funny)

-probably leaves stuffed animals in your dorms that block out a whole half of your bed so none of your members lay down near you LMAO

-has a lot of respect for you and your group, but mainly you <3

[queen-of-bad-opsec]

this cat will occasionally reblog porn, and other sexual content.

do with that what you will; if you're a minor, maybe it's worth staying away.

anyways, i am the Queen of Bad Opsec. there's backstory to the name. ppl close to me may ask about it.

she/her are my pronouns.

this cat will frequently refer to itself as "this cat". she likes saying that, and . i mean, call a cat a cat, am i right?

@ all my mutuals: i suggest you go make a cohost. if shit hits the fan even more than it already has, that's where i'll be. welp, nevermind. cohost died first.

this cat is discovering the joy of colored text. please bear with me.

this cat is some flavor of trans. maybe she was a boy once, but she can't say that with certainty anymore. this cat learned the word "demigirl" recently, and is slowly rotating it in her mind. she likes the sound of "girlthing".

also, this cat is probably bi. or maybe pan? maybe she'll figure that out one day, hehe.

in any case, its gender is such that every sex with it is gay :3

this cat uses Linux. this cat will tell you to also use Linux. this is because windows is shite, macos is restrictive, and chromeos is both, plus google. big tech is a fuck, go use linux today. viva la FOSS.

this cat uses Arch Linux (btw). this cat will not recommend you use Arch Linux (btw), because Arch Linux is annoying (btw). this cat just happens to tolerate, and occasionally even enjoy, those annoyances. if you're new to linux, go use pop!os. if it werent for snap, i'd recommend ubuntu, but even putting aside issues of dated packages, why the fuck would anyone want more than one default package manager? it kinda defeats the purpose a little bit.

update: this cat has installed NixOS on its laptop. she likes!

central configurations, my beloved.

this cat loves tiling window managers. it used gnome once, but abandoned that long ago in favor of i3wm, and eventually cast that aside when it found swaywm and realized it wouldnt have to deal with picom anymore. now, this cat gets to deal with the lacking software support for Wayland in multiple critical areas (screen sharing is .bad) instead. this cat has heard of dwm and hyprland and a few others, and is a lil curious what all the hype's about, but lacks the energy to do the research. for now, she loves the rectangular simplicity of sway. she loves the low-effort nature of windows that just neatly tile side by side where you tell them to be, and wonders how she ever put up with floating window systems at all.

this cat plays video games. games it likes / has liked are Celeste, SUPERHOT (MCD too), FTL (esp Multiverse), Into the Breach, Minecraft, Satisfactory, the Metro series, Astroneer, ULTRAKILL, Dungeon of the Endless, Cyberpunk, Doom (2016 and Eternal, mostly Eternal) and Planetside 2. and more probably, but i forgor. want to play Highfleet sometime, bc i love the OST (Tanc a Lelek my beloved)

Current video games: Satisfactory, Deep Rock Galactic

[cramathonn]

Hey!! I saw you had requests open, but when you have the time, I would like an Anton x pirate! Reader (Like the faction the reader is like a pirate crew despite having no sea based areas yet in ZZZ 😭)

Anon... Anon holy shit your brain is humongous. You woke up the small pirate hyperfix I have omg-/pos

Since you didn't specify what role pirate reader would be, I'll be a little silly and make them a navigator. So... Yea, I hope this is ok with you, dear anon. If you'd like a more deck hands reader or even captain reader, you can just send another ask and I will write it like that!

The rest shall be under the cut!

The content ahead is gender neutral and will not have reader referred to with any pronouns!

Content warning: none! Just headcanons and fluff

Anton Ivanov x Pirate!Reader

★ Listen, constantly going on voyages and being at sea almost all the time will most certainly make you smell of salty water or like a tropical breeze, you can't change my mind. And Anton absolutely loves that smell, he would most definitely just rest his face near your neck or on your hair and take a VERY NOTICEABLE inhale. His muscles relax almost immediately when he does that

★ Absolutely hates how long you take to come back from voyages. Like, yeah, your ship is probably equipped with the most recent machinery to make your travels last less, but it still takes a while, specially considering that the weather makes a big difference in trip durations

★ Will hug you so tight when you come back tho, bear hug levels of tight. Will inquire on how everything went and will want to hear every last detail. Like, dude has barely been able to hear your voice during that entire time because your signal was shit or he didn't have time due to his work on Belobog, so please yap about everything that happened on your trip, he missed you so much

★ Also, during those times you are away, Anton will visibly be like a sad puppy waiting for its owner to come back home and he will yap about how much he misses you to whoever asked him if he was ok (please hurry back, Ben and Koleda can't handle much more of Anton's whining)

★Some times, Belobog hires your crew to bring some materials for them and Anton ALWAYS goes along (he begs for Koleda to let him go every single time and she lets him because PLEASE GOD spare her ears she can only handle so much)

★ Simply adores seeing you at work, he won't understand a lot of it but gosh, you look so attractive while cracking the coordinates of where you guys should go inside a hollow and relaying the information to your crewmates

★ Will be by your side constantly when you're on that voyage. He will obviously do his job, he prides himself in what he does, but will do so while staying by your side. If you need to do something when he's working, he'll let you go and finish what he's doing before rushing back to your side

★ Listen when I say this, he loves how you look when you're in your uniform. Regardless if how it looks like, he just loves it. Seeing you wearing your work uniform, dedicated to your role in the crew is so attractive in his eyes (he is vocal about how gorgeous you look to him, btw, will drop compliments here and there)

★ Anton isn't a big fan of staying at home, so be prepared for high or medium activity dates. Going on walks, going to the beach, going to the pool, whatever it is as long as it's not staying at home is a must with him

★ His personal favorites, however, are beach and boat dates. Yes, boat dates, as in he rents a boat and goes to a river with you type of boat dates. He loves seeing how you still get in your navigator mentality even when on dates, he finds it endearing

★ Will bring his bro along dates tho. It's his bro, he ain't leaving him behind! So you better get used to having Anton's bro revving up during your hangouts, specially if you guys go to Bardic Needle (his bro likes to sing)

★ Talking about singing, share the songs you and your crew sing during voyages! Heck, even teach him some, he'd love singing those with you (or simply just listening to you sing)

★ Now, if you're exhausted after returning from a voyage or planning for it, Anton is taking you back home to get a warm comforting bath and a well balanced meal (that he most likely bought at Lumina Square because, in my mind, he's not a good cook)

★ And in the topic of food, Anton would gladly help you prepare your and your crew's rations for voyages, keeping in mind the amount of nutrients best fit for consumption during specific times of day. He's THE meal prep guy.

★ tldr: he loves you and whole heatedly supports your pirate endeavors, helping you prepare for trips and taking care of you when you return. Don't let this man go because he sure ain't letting you go.

[time-travel-trio]

(You hear the clacking sound of a keyboard being typed on)

Is this thing working? Oh, wait- AHA, there we go!

About time!

Took it long enough.

Yeah, really. So, let's introduce ourselves! Hello, Rotomblr- Rotumblr? How do you spell it? Girls, you know I have dyslexia-

Oh boy, we're off to a bad start.

Yeah, really.

AHEM. Moving on... I'm Dusk! I'm the one in the middle here, with the red eyes. I specialize in Ghost Types, and I'm kind of our leader? Sorta? I dunno.

I'm Dawn, on the right, with the magenta eyes. I like Poison types. They are verrrrrry fun. Dusk and I are twins, if it wasn't obvious.

I'm Twilight, the odd one out on the left, with the brown and pink hair. I use Psychic Types, and I'm their little sister. Nice to meet you all!

We decided to make a shared blog here for you all to chat with us with. You can ask us just about anything, but if we find an ask too weird, we're just gonna delete it.

Yeah, don't come over here asking REALLY weird shit. You know what we mean, you weird fucks.

Language, Dawn.

Shut up-

Girls, chill. Now, you all may notice we're using different text colors, it's just so you can tell who's talking. Wouldn't want you all getting confused. Now, with all that said, uhhh... you can start asking us stuff now, I guess.

Wow, way to be confident when ending it off.

C'mon, Dusk, you can do better then that.

Girls, don't make me get Thanatos. OH RIGHT, you can ask about our teams, too, and depending on who you ask, the Pokémon spoken about may chip in with something! Okay, now we're good.

Ask away, people!

(OOC under the cut)

I decided to make an ask blog for my three Pokémon OC's, Dusk, Dawn, and Twilight! You may have seen them appear over on other blogs, rest assured, that is me, just my alt lol.

Pelipper Mail is ON! Magic Anon is OFF!

Don't be weird with them, yall. I won't hesitate to block anyone who asks anything obviously inappropriate. None of that shit will be on my blog. This is fuckin' MINE, and it ain't gonna be a circus for your creepy desires, got it?

When I talk OOC, I'll use // as an indicator. You can ask me things as well, if you want! Just specify!

Speaking of that, specify which of them you're talking to when you send in asks, please. I'm not a mind reader. If you do that, I'm gonna end up hitting you with this:

(thanks to @the-boy-and-the-poison-puppeteer for the inspiration for this lol [sorry for the ping], go check out his blog if you didn't come here from his)

Any of them may go unavailable for any reason at any time, so I'll keep a list of who's available and who isn't.

With all that said, have fun!

Available For Asks:

Dusk

Dawn

Twilight

Kieran

Their teams, as they're revealed (Thanatos the Zoroark and Hoshino the Ogerpon so far)

[kanmom51]

fairly new army & jikooker here, and i just wanted to share my thoughts. (love your blog btw💜)

it just baffles me when ppl try to write JM off as being straight if he happens to refer to a ‘she’ in songs. Like Crazy being a good example recently. is their thinking so shallow that they can only perceive ‘she’ as a woman in the physical sense?

like, how often have ppl used female pronouns or the female form to express more abstract concepts in literally any art form over the course of history??

i never saw that ‘she’ in Like Crazy as anything other than JM referencing either alcohol (how many men call alcohol a seductive temptress/mistress when they have a drinking problem?), or his feminine side which he all but spelled out for us in his mv & dance for the song.

Agreed.

Nothing much to add really.

I'd say that it's even more so when we know that 'she' wasn't in the original lyrics.

Also, this song needs to be read within the Like crazy movie reference, and not separately from the quotes we get at the start and end of the song.

This song is about JM, well struggles he was going through during the pandemic, but the way I see it, it's not a one layered song. It has depth, multiple meanings, multiples interpretations, and I think that's what JM wanted for it, especially given the MV and choreography.

People assume. They love to assume. Well, they love to do that when it fits their own set of beliefs or wants. And they mostly don't want him to be queer.

And even more so, they definitley don't want him to be queer with JK.

Those two, they ruffle so many feathers, lol.

It's actually quite entertaining (when not infuriating) how much time and energy people are putting into trying to disprove they are a couple. For the months leading up to Feb 2023, when we had radio silence, they were all rejoicing and spending time in coming into our spaces to let us know how Jikook are no more (which means what? That prior to that they were a couple? Right?). And when they are acting like they were in the last BTB (something we haven't seen for such a long time because of the lack of ot7 content), they are all back to the old fanservice and JM forcing himself on JK narrative. Good thing I have a good chiropractor with the whiplash I get from these people.

Anyway, lovely that you reached out, and thank you for your kind words.

[emmetofthestars]

hello Emmet. would you please enlighten us with some Iris lore (I'm very intrigued by him)

*btw I forgot if iris goes by any or specified pronouns (I just used the ones you referred iris with last time) but I still wanna make sure I'm using the correct pronouns for iris and maybe the rest of the blu mercs ^_^

(yes its any pronouns for iris :)

i actually talked abt iris in another ask but im gonna do it again. uhm he is a 50 something ipad baby. joking. but he is 50 something and not social at all he seems to hold grudges against anyone on his team for minor annoyances. she has the worst job (spy) of them all and also is treated the worst by RED team. terrible fear of RED pyro to the point of getting scared by any sort of mask. imprisoned by RED for alteast a month and tortured or experimented with. by none other than medic of course (and engineer.) and when she dies at RED base and respawns at BLU base nobody seems to give a shit. everybody either forgot about it or just thought iris left on her own volition. yeah daisy was concerned but the common reaction is "oh, youre back". and that sticks in her mind. not even just RED teams torture but the complete lack of concern. she starts to hate practically any person she has and hasnt ever met, regardless of how they act towards her. no longer sleeps in their bedroom much, the complete darkness and lack of noise unnerves them. sleeps on the couch in front of the tv because its a small source of light and noise. maybe has weird parasocial relationships with people on tv. rarely talks except when they want to insult someone. constantly lets their neck hang because they cant be bothered to look into peoples faces, much less their eyes. at any moment they just want to go back to the couch and sleep as long as they possibly can instead of bothering with whatever it is theyre doing at the moment.

um. kind of not much else to him. uhmmm. i liek to think about iris snapping at someone because he never shows emotion unless to be angry at someone. also imagine him being kicked off BLU or leaving and murdering random people that slightly annoy him because he has no fear or concept of death and the permanence of death 🫶

[my-castles-crumbling]

Oh my godddd do I need ur advice Cassssssssss! So in my friend group with have this mildly sexist joke, of whenever an annoying man does something irritating, we say “ugh men suck”. I am conscious that an “ugh women suck” would offend our group and therefore we’re hypocritical, but to be fair, we say it when men randomly sexualise us, they say it when women cry… so? Anyway, the other day, me (im a girl btw), and two of my other friends were hanging out in town. Ones a girl and ones a boy. 

And this guy walks past and catcalls us, and my friend rolls her eyes and goes “ugh men fucking suck”. And my guy friend (who btw him and our other guy friend have said they’re fine with these jokes as long as we don’t act like they’re a part of it? u know) jokingly goes “ouch”. It’s a joke. I knew it was a joke and laughed. He’s respectful and kind and sweet and the type of guy to agree that that type of guy SUCKS.  

BUT MY FRIEND goes; “Oh not you, you don’t count. You’re not a real guy.”

He’s trans.

And I wanted to punch her.

OF FUCKING COURSE HES A GUY. He literally put more effort into being a guy than any other guy you’ve ever met. All other guys are born having to be guys. He had to put the effort in to be called a guy. He’s more guy than any other guy.  

But I didn’t punch her or correct her because knowing my guy friend, I knew he wouldn’t want to bring it up. He sort of looked at me, and me at him, and then there was an awkward silence before we went back to normal.

So we walk home and drop him off at his place and I give him a look, roughly translates to “is it cool if I bring up earlier to her and tell her she made u uncomfty.” and he gives me a look that’s sort of like “u know I hate talking abt this stuff but I don’t want that to happen again so sure, thanks”.

So we’re walking, its just us two now, and as we go I say, “Hey mind if we talk abt something u said today, I don’t think you meant it this way but I think it upset *my guy friend”

And she says sure and looks kinda confused. So I bring up the whole, you’re not a real guy, thing. And she says she didn’t mean it that way. 

So I say, “You know I think you’re really lovely, and it was an accident and all, just for future reference, saying he’s not a real guy, it can cause dysphoria. So he feels like you’re rejecting him being trans and being a guy.”

And she’s goes “But he’s not a guy. He was a girl first so he gets it.” And I go “But he’s always felt like a guy and now he’s presenting as a guy and using male pronouns, so you saying he’s not a real guy is upsetting for him”.

And she goes “But he’s like us so he’s not a real guy.”

So I go “What? He doesn’t have a dick, is that it?” (i’m getting a lil defensive at this point, i’ve known my guy friend for YEARS and she’s a newer friend of like this year- and before this point very lovely, so i’m like confused and annoyed) then i say “Or is it that he’s nice. Did you mean he’s nice, like *our other guy friend who btw isn’t trans*. Not the type to catcall ppl?”

And she goes “Yeah. That. But like, if you think of a guy, you think the sort of body type right? He has our body or whatever. I’m not saying he’s not a guy. Just not a full guy.”

So I go, “No. No he is a ‘full’ guy. He’s as much guy as any other guy. And if you say he’s not- look my point is that saying that sort of thing really upsets him so please don’t in the future.”

And SHE GOES “Well if he has a problem he can tell me himself”. 

GIRL WHAT THE FUCK? Okay look, I love my friends. And i’m not often the type to choose sides because a lot of arguments at 18 are petty ones. But I won’t be friends with this girl if I know she’s going to be transphobic and make one of my closest friends uncomfortable. Even if she doesn’t realise she’s being a transphobe.

So I say “please look this up so you understand why it would upset him. He doesn’t like to talk abt this stuff, but it bothers him”.

And she goes “how do you know it bothers him if he doesn’t talk abt it.”

And yes this could be genuine, if she finds it tough to read emotions on ppls faces, so I tried to be fair in answering.

I go, “Well, he seemed upset when you said it. And that sort of comment has been said to him before, and in private he’s mentioned that he doesn’t like it.”

We’ve had long talks abt the way it bothers him. But she doesn’t need to know that. He hates talking to ppl he’s not really close to abt this stuff since they can swerve any second (like this girl now).

So she goes “If he can tell u, why can’t he tell me?” And I go “He’s just more comfortable around me since we’ve known each other so long.”

(i would like to add in here, we are very good friends but also not the type to leave ppl out. She didn’t have a “reason” for her comment or a reason to be mad. We were all chatting all day. Never left her out. Just because we’ve known her less long, it didn’t bother me or him. There was no duo in a trio thing all day- I only brought up our closer relationship now since it seemed like a good way to explain it to her) 

And she goes “Oh my god so you knew him before he transitioned then? What’s his deadname?”

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCKING FUCK! 

I go silent. Then I say “I’ve known him a long time.” And then I go silent again and she doesn’t say anything and we walk the remaining like two- three minutes to her place. My house is like five minutes from there, it’s the exact way so it’s not like I could’ve gone a dif route. 

So yeah. That happened. 

So I text my guy friend once i’m home and give him the debrief.

He ends up deciding he doesn’t want to make this a thing. She’s friends with our bigger group- which is like 9-10 ppl- so he doesnt want to cause anything, even tho they’d all happily explain why she’s being a transphobe. He said he didn’t want her to feel ganged up on.

HES TOO NICE. WHAT THE HELL.

So I text him; “if she says anything else transphobic i’ll do my best to explain it to her and have her stop but if it becomes more than one more comment I think we should consider her friendship cause I know you’ll be uncomfortable and I don’t want to be friends with a transphobe.”

So yeah. Look I get that partly it’s not fair. She wasn’t raised somewhere where they’d teach her this stuff. She doesn’t understand that she’s being transphobic. But also, she should look this stuff up and listen when I tell her, instead of disregarding me when i’m tryna help. 

But I also really want to get through to her. But most importantly I want my guy friend to be comfortable around his friends. But he’s way to nice to bring up what she said to everyone else (they would not approve either). 

Hi!

Oh, wow.

Okay, first, I want to commend you for approaching this where you're trying not to make your guy friend uncomfortable while still being an ally. Genuinely, it sounds like you're a fantastic friend, and you're trying hard to listen to his needs.

This is so hard, because at first, I was like- oh! The other friend is just ignorant. A lot of people who make comments like that are ignorant, and like...even as a trans person, I can see the twisted way of thinking that ted to those comments.

But then, after being gently and kindly corrected, the friend doubled down, and THAT is the problem.

People are allowed to make mistakes, especially when they may have been raised with a set of views. But to double down like that is where I take issue, and I think you're right to take issue as well.

HOWEVER:

This is first and foremost, your guy friend's battle. If he doesn't want to make a big deal out of it, you need to respect his wishes. You're absolutely correct (and very smart by realizing) that these comments can cause dysphoria, which is awful. But it could be that your guy friend wants to cope with that by not acknowledging it. And that's valid.

So I think the right thing to do is to not bring this specific issue up unless he asks. But if your other friend says generally transphobic things, I think it's okay to correct them if you feel comfortable. So like, if your other friend says "'Guy friend' is emotional like a girl." then I would wait for your guy friend's permission to say something. But if she says like.. "Trans people should have to go to the bathroom of their gender assigned at birth," then you can speak up. You can also choose on your own to take space from this other friend.

You can also be there for your guy friend by reminding him that you know those comments are not okay, and you support him however he needs.

I know it's a lot to think about, but I really think you're doing a great job. Write back with updates! I'm naming you commendable anon in case you do!

hi sorry im unsure. is thomas being trans just your interpretation or was that actually retconned? /gen

So there's a lot to say but your basic answer is that SWERY has discussed Thomas being trans and refers to her using she/her pronouns in this interview from 2018 [link] (contains spoilers for The Missing)

The point he seems to be making and the point that I want to get into is that this is not a retcon either. Thomas has always been a trans woman, just a closeted one. Further elaboration under the cut

What you have to keep in mind is that this is a trans character written by cis writers back in the late 2000s (The game was in development hell for so long that most of the writing was completed around like 2007ish). I do feel like it’s important context. Think about your average (cishet) layman’s knowledge about trans people back then.

Thus the reason I don't consider the way Thomas was talked about in that later interview to be a retcon is it seems to be more of a case of SWERY learning more about the subject after working with trans consultants when making The Missing (which is great btw go check it out). To speculate a bit I think he realized that the character he wrote that wanted to be a woman... would, in fact, just be a woman.

Even before that interview, I feel like the intention is still clearly there, regardless of how poorly it was handled. For example, in a Q&A from 2010/2011 SWERY mentions that one of his inspirations for Thomas was his friend transitioning [archive link, formatting is broken]

And in the game itself, there's Thomas' inclusion as a goddess. She's not treated as an exception. She wears a dress and is happy like all the others. Multiple characters in the epilogue refer to the victims as “the girls” without ever making any sort of distinction such as “Thomas and the girls.” She’s one of them. So if you only care about in-game evidence, she is still acknowledged as a woman, even if it is only in death.

Why, hello there!!

Allow me to introduce myself. (NOW WITH MASTERPOST!! WOAHHHH!!!!) (found at the bottom. I need to remake this post from the ground up next year.) (New post has been made this one is outdated now-- how the hell did you even find this one? Did you actually scroll all the way back here?!)

I haven't really come up with a pseudo name for myself yet, so I guess "Gremlin" or "That One Chaotic Lil Shit. You Know The One!" will do for now. No DNI here btw. I am totally, 100%, definitely 19. So all of those 18+ blogs that are just checking for my age can move on now, haha!

...Why are they still here? And looking at me suspiciously? Y-- You guys can leave now! Shoo! Go on!

Well then. Anygayyyyy! Other than that, I guess the other important thing to mention is pronouns. You may use she/her or they/them. I honestly don't care which ones you use for me. Use one, use the other, or get a little wacky with it and change them out mid-sentence. Are you still talking about the same person? Or somebody else entirely? Who knows!

In addition to that, if you wish to refer to me as a little lad or fellow, I would definitely not complain!

Something else that's probably worth mentioning is that this is, indeed, a side blog, which means that the blog I'll be doing my likes and follows and such from, will not be this one. I don't put any mention of this blog on my other ones because I don't want that audience knowing about this. Besides, my mom's on here too, and she knows about my two other blogs. Yeah..... you probably get it lmao.

However, I don't mind this community knowing about my main stuff, so I'll give you guys a hint, because this is an easter egg hunt now apparently (/s /lh). Nah, but fr, I tend to like a post either immediately before, or after I reblog it. Also my pfp is a chaotic collage of our lord and savior, Spleens, the cat. All hail the Glow Cloud, and all hail Spleens, the cat.

So. Now that the basic stuff is out of the way, it's time to get into some more blog-related things about me. Specifically when it comes to writing. So fuckle all of your seatbelts, because this may get long.

To start off, I initially just spontaneously created this blog to dump a lot of reblog stuff that I loved and didn't want to lose. That's not going to stop anytime soon. Buuuut, lately I've been feeling more confident to post random prompts and ideas, and maybe even a random blurb or two! So, there's that for the near future. Maybe. Possibly.

Next I'd like to mention that I have OCs!! Quite a few, to be exact. All with their own intricate lil storylines and a few unique settings! I love to scheme and keep plenty of secrets, as well as make some goofy references here and there. Just because I like to write some sad shit, doesn't mean that I can't have some fun with wacky stuff happening in the background too!

Anyway, the OCs of mine that I'll probably mention most around here right now are: Mist, Ember, Kage, and Onyx. (As for my whumper's, those two are Vivek and Lilium.)

Hmm... what else...

Oh- uhm! Tropes I like and the squicks and stuff!

Tropes I enjoy:

• Delirium/Half-Conscious/Dazed

• Mind Control/Hypnosis/Brainwashing (I guess you could say that I tend to... lose my mind over this one)

• Drugged/Spiked

• Sick/Fever

• Just any loss of situational awareness, really

• Fainting (I'm tempted to write a tip post for this one, because there's some underrated things that I think some people might really like to mess around with! Also because I might've had a whole hyperfixation on this stuff.)

• Lab Whump (so fun to read, oddly difficult to write)

• Starvation

• Pushed to the limit, and then some. Doesn't matter who's doing the pushing.

The tropes I don't so much enjoy:

I don't really have any triggers when it comes to reading, but there are a few things that can make me uncomfy.

• Sexual Non-Con. (Gives the heebie jeebies)

• Oddly Specific/Unorthodox Whumps (Yanking teeth, yanking fingernails, putting something under fingernails, etc. More heebie jeebies.)

• Visually speaking, I recently learned that I get triggered by watching somebody who's obviously suffering/dying, but everybody around them tries to dismiss it or act like they're fine. It's fine to write and read (love it in word form, actually), but as soon as it's a video, I just can't.

Hi, i don't really know if you still answer questions but I thought I'd give it a shot. Fair warning this will probably be a little long lol. So I am currently writing an urban fantasy book series where the main character is non-binary. This character had a twin and they were separated when they were very young. He(the twin) since then has always believed the MC to be dead along with their parents. Years later, they meet again but they don't recognize each other. The MC was adopted by another important family. They also have a very unique power that they hide, that is genetic but has been dormant in their family (it was initially tied to them being their assigned gender at birth, but that obviously became problematic so I changed it).

The problem I'm running into is that the brother keeps referring to his twin, who he believes to be dead, by their birth name, essentially dead-naming the MC. He only does it in front of other characters, obviously unintentionally, primarily because he doesn't trust the MC because he believes their family is responsible for his entire family's death (which to be fair is true, because the MC's adoptive grandmother basically kidnapped them), but he doesn't know that. The reveal comes later on in the series and when the brother realizes that the MC is their twin he obviously respects their pronouns and doesn't call them by their dead name (He didn't know he was even doing it before), but now I run into the problem of the readers knowing the MC's dead name and I don't know if that's extremely bad...

Another thing I'm unsure about is that the MC is extremely morally gray. They have dangerous magic and have killed a lot of people(mainly because of their grandmother raising them to be the Witch Council’s Executioner). This has NOTHING to do with their gender, but I'm afraid some may see it as me saying non-binary people are dangerous. Again, that's NOT the intention and I'm trying my hardest to write this in a way to show there is no correlation. But I feel like i need a second opinion. I don't really want to change the MC to not being enby, primarily because the entire concept of this series started from the idea of a non-binary witch(which btw, also has nothing to do with gender but instead describes the type of magic they use).

Lastly, (and sorry again that this is so long), the series ends with the MC dying. Again, I don't want this to seem like I'm playing into the 'bury your queers' trope. In a nutshell, their best friend(who ends up marrying their twin) gets posessed and she becomes very dangerous so the MC uses the unique power that I mentioned above, at their best friend's request (basically their power is that they can forcefully take another person's magic, but this ends up killing that person). (This is also why they became the Witch Council’s Executioner). And because they basically kill their twin’s wife, he ends up using the same type of magic to kill them. It's very complicated and I don't know if my explanation makes ANY sense whatsoever, but yeah. Again I don't want to contribute to the 'bury your queers' trope.

I'm sorry this was so hectic, but I've been trying to figure out a way around these issues for literally almost 2 years lol. FYI, the MC is not the only character in the story to be part of the LGBTQ comunity. I am part of the community as well, but I don't identify with the MC's identity, so I wanted to maybe get some other opinions. Thank you for any help you can offer.

all i can really say tbh is that i think youre being a little too hard on yourself. let me go thru the points in order:

1- knowing the nonbinary character's deadname there is a reason that the name is known. it can be uncomfortable to think of this happening to a real person, but a character in a story is not a real person. reading through, it makes perfect sense that the brother would deadname his sibling simply because he *doesnt know*. and theres a *pretty good reason*, being that the sibling could be in danger for coming out. being nonbinary myself, i dont see an issue

2- morally grey nonbinary character i honestly think that sanitizing a nb character to be perfect pure and good is worse sometimes. it, to me, feels performative to have nb characters be perfect good people for the sake of ''good rep''. good rep is better when the character feels like a real person, good bad and all in between. it means theyre not demonized for being nonbinary. it means that theyre treated respectfully by the story and not forced into stereotypes or pushed aside. its like the ''strong female character'' archetype: a lot of people misinterpret that as meaning the character is physically strong, but it really means that the character has depth and the audience can emotionally connect with them & theyre not just for a performance of diversity or eye candy

3- nb mc dies, is it bury your gays? i've mentioned before (in the pinned post as well as elsewhere) that the trope ''bury your gays'' (and all its character-specific varieties) is a queerbaiting trope. its used to demoralize us by saying we dont deserve happiness and used as an out by queerphobic writers so they can draw in their gay audience without committing. generally, it is invoked when the queer character finds happiness or success and then is killed for shock value or simply because it is demoralizing

specifically, if youre afraid of accidentally invoking this trope, ask yourself a simple question:

"can this death be avoided and the story still make sense?"

if its sensible for the character to live, then let them live. if theres no way around the death, then let them die. does the brother know his wife is possessed? for all he knows, did the mc kill his wife for no reason? on the flip side, what does the death do for the narrative? is it a tragedy, meant to invoke sadness or hopelessness in the reader? does the death impact other characters meaningfully? the reader just as much?

basically, worry less about what a reader might think and focus more on the message youre trying to send. every part of art is meant to communicate an idea to your readers. your narrative, plot, characters, and tropes are all just tools to get your point across

Juro’s Extended Profile!

…which was long overdue (^◇^;)

Tbh this is more for my reference than anything else; that’s why I included these 2 drawings of Juro that you can look at before my rambling under the cut 🥺

*btw!! Juro uses she/he/they pronouns, so I use them interchangeablely down below! Just as an example that using any of these options are ok for them! In other writings for Juro, tho, I tend towards one or the other to eliminate confusion.*

Full Name: Juro Parva

Name Meaning: Taken from the scientific name “Jorunna parva”; The sea bunny/slug Juro is based off of was popularized on/by JPN Twitter in 2015, so their first name is Japanese.

Dorm: Octavinelle

Year: 3rd year

Birthday: October 6

Age: 18 years

Height: 5’4”/161.5cm

Place of Origin: Coral Sea

Voice Headcanon: Igarashi Hiromi

Personality:

The very definition of a “social butterfly” and a picture perfect example of networking, Juro is almost never seen by themself. He thrives in social environments, flitting from one conversation to the next in her tireless search for gossip at Night Raven College. They don’t mind small talk, but can get visibly antsy if a meaningless conversation drags on for too long. He’s one of the central hubs for controversy, after all, if she’s not doing something useful with her time then it’s all just a waste.

And although they were born blind, Juro seems to have a heightened spatial awareness due to the sea bunny blood running through their veins. So while she still has some trouble navigating new environments, she has a general sense of whatever’s within 5 feet (or less) of her, so he doesn’t bump into or fumble around with things as often as some people would assume he would. He also takes a tremendous amount of care into their appearance, as they were often the test subject of their parents’ (a photographer and a journalist respectively) photographs and exorbitant praise. So although they can’t see themselves, it always fills Juro with delight at being told that they look cute today. It wouldn’t be too far off to describe them as vain, as Juro is often seen enlisting the help of her peers or siblings when it comes to things like outfit coordination or making sure no accessory is out of place.

Likes: Socializing, Gossip, Cute things, Their siblings, Good food, Research, Music (tries to keep up with whatever’s trending, surprisingly likes listening to hard rock + heavy metal when alone for stress relief), Pleasant smelling perfumes/aromas, Podcasts, Their bunny eared headband

Dislikes: Boring people, loud and unexpected noises, experimentally prepared food, extremely crowded locations, not looking cute, being ignored

Background:

Juro was adopted at five years old by his fathers. They don’t remember much of what happened before then. One of his dads is a professional photographer while his other dad is a journalist. Juro remembers having to travel a lot during his younger years while his parents were still both relatively new in their professions, trying to break into their fields as quickly as they could by seizing any opportunity they could find. Most of his siblings (all of whom are younger than him) were adopted a little bit later, once their family became more financially stable.

She loves her family dearly, and her family loves her, often shown in the amount of praise she received when she was younger, especially when it came to her appearance. Although she couldn’t see it for herself, she adored the attention that came with it and continues to take great care of her looks to the present day. Their siblings sometimes get tired of being used as a “magic mirror” everyday by Juro (and sometimes mess with him by occasionally lying about him looking ok; they get their asses handed to them as soon as Juro finds out lol), but they depend on him a lot. He gets told that he shouldn’t stress too much over them, but with how free-spirited his parents are, he can’t help but be a little concerned.

Her penchant for sticking her nose into other people’s businesses may have stemmed from her parents as well. She never became too intrusive though. He always makes sure to take care of both his physical image as well as his figurative one. It would be a shame if everybody stopped paying attention to him because of a tarnished reputation, so he always does thorough research and makes sure to build up/fortify his social standing before spreading word of some of the more weightier scandals around campus. And even if the information given to her wasn’t entirely true, Juro might be able to work her way around it, either through the use of her unique magic or by leaning heavily into half truths that make things appear worse than they actually are. As long as everything continues to work out in their favor, Juro doesn’t really mind who they have to tear down to get what they want.

Powers:

Toxic Glamour (Unique Magic): Allows Juro to verbally or subconsciously “push” a thought into people’s heads, forcing them to believe it’s true. Those more deeply rooted in their convictions are harder to ensnare, but not impossible. Can be used on multiple people at once.

Mild Toxins from Touch: Allows Juro to temporarily numb a body part through direct touch; can try to numb more body parts or the whole body but the victim may experience major bouts of nausea if Juro chooses to do so. This ability provides a protection against toxins as well, but only for Juro.

Trivia

They’re a part of the light music club but only drops by once and while. If begged to, Juro normally joins in on the keyboard or as vocals. They know some guitar due to being taught by Cater and Lilia, but this is less frequented by them.

Her dislike of experimentally prepared food stems from Jade feeding her some strange dishes without telling her what it was beforehand. It was only halfway through her meal did he reveal that he slipped in some poisonous herbs + mushrooms in order to test her immunity to certain toxins. Juro was fine afterwards, but now she refuses to eat anything prepared by Jade.

They also really don’t like Floyd on that matter, still resenting the time he shifted everything in their dorm room slightly to the right without telling them. Juro temporarily numbed Floyd out of anger but became even more upset upon seeing him become delighted at the weird feeling their ability brought him.

Juro likes Azul slightly more than the tweels but knows not to enter into any contracts with him. They often exchange pleasantries as they pass by each other in the hallways or during slow days in the lounge. Their quid pro quo views on life are pretty similar, so it’s not uncommon for them to do small favors for one another as well.

As reference to the sea sponges sea bunnies typically eat, Juro “absorbs” information almost obsessively. Whether it be what he’s learning in class or whatever he can glean from the people around him, he can’t go one day without learning something new. The sponges sea bunnies eat are also toxic which alludes to his “toxic” personality as well.

I do have a vague concept of one of her siblings in my head! He’s gonna be a 1st year Octavinelle student (my… 3rd… octavinelle… oc… oh god) who often checks in on Juro. He helps run Juro’s social media accounts as well, acting as Juro’s personal photographer.

Juro’s never seen without their bunny eared headbands. To draw Juro without one is sacrilegious idk what else to tell you :/

As for pronouns, Juro doesn’t really care which ones you use for them. They themselves tend to change the way they refer to themselves depending on the situation (cycling between “boku (僕)”, “watashi(私)”, “atashi(私)”; rarely uses “ore (俺)” unless they become angry/upset, but even then Juro tries to keep up their facade as best they can.

Juro’s blindness is also due to irl sea bunnies not having any eyes or visual systems to rely on (or maybe they do idk some sources say otherwise), so their fur and ears are used to navigate their surroundings instead. I could’ve gone for the full “no eyes” route, but (*´-`) coloring in the eyes is my favorite part of drawing, even if they’re faded.

I hope this is how to request I never did this before sheknedhiejejauqoalsaaaaaaa, if not please inform me on it. If this is where I do the requesting can I have Chiaki, Mukuro, Chihiro, and Kirumi with a reader who’s a furry(animal costume and all😔) who makes fun of themselves/their furry friends over it.(like playfully yk obviously I’m not a terror to my buds) Sorry that this is long btw I’m just nervous i’ll embarrass myself (make sure to have a bite to eat today and to brush them bone crushers in yo mouth)

You're absolutely fine, anon! My blog like many others takes submissions through the ask box so you did it perfectly. I have very little knowledge on furries so if this is a bit off, I apologize. Please enjoy!

Chiaki Nanami, Mukuro Ikusaba, Chihiro Fujisaki and Kirumi Tojo with a furry! s/o:

Chiaki:

-Honestly, she's pretty cool with it. She's never been the judgemental type, and likes that it makes you happy!

-In fact, she'll be very supportive of your hobby! Chiaki would come with you to conventions and take pictures with you in your fursuit.

-She likes that you don't take it too seriously and can laugh about it. You and her would have inside jokes and even memes about this.

-She'd allow you to put cat ears on her head. She's already sleepy, relaxed and does what she wants, so it fits perfectly.

Mukuro:

-She may be the Ultimate Soldier, but Mukuro has very little understanding of the world around her, especially things common on the internet-- Junko shows her things but it just turns into that "it's a meme, batman" joke.

-"You're a what?" She'd ask, completely baffled. Explaining would lead to more questions and confusion, but eventually she'd get it.

-She'd be very aware of her surroundings when you joked around with friends about it, in case someone needed to be punched. But she soon realizes it's all in good fun.

-You tell her that she would be a wolf, and every time she denies it. When you point at her tattoo as proof, she laughs and gives in.

Chihiro: *I used they/them pronouns for now but I can change them if you prefer a different set!

-Chihiro has always liked furry art and the like, but was too embarrassed to get into the fandom.

-After meeting you, they saw that there's nothing to be ashamed of! You could have fun together.

-Chihiro is pretty sensitive to jokes, even if they aren't directed at them, so you have to reassure them that it isn't mean-spirited.

-Their attempt to draw a fursona was adorable, but hilariously bad. You couldn't tell what animal it was! Clearly, programming was the right choice. As it turns out, it was a rabbit.

Kirumi:

-She wouldn't be familiar with furries either, but listens intently to you talk about them.

-Her sewing ability is quite helpful. If you need any maintenance on your costume, or anything of that sort, she'd do it!

-She might jokingly refer to you as her dear *insert whatever animal your fursona is here* with a light laugh.

-Thinking it would be a fun conversation starter, she took an online "What animal are you?" test. Her result was a gazelle, which is strangely accurate.

-Kirumi is happy to be with someone who broadens her horizons. She's learned a lot from you!
