Dionian:  It’s a mix of Voidarian and Duskian. A rejection of the gender binary and is a complete void with an indescribable partial tie to femininity.

Not mine, coined by knightcoric who I refuse to give any attention bc they're somehow anti-mogai while making genders.

Interesting things I learned from "Gay Berlin. Birthplace of a Modern Identity"

I am reading the book "Gay Berlin. Birthplace of a Modern Identity" in its german translation at the moment. It's really interesting.

I learned the followings things from it:

The word "Homosexualität" was coined 1868 by a german journalist.

About Karl Heinrich Ulrichs (wikipedia : DE EN) a pioneer of the LGBT movement. He was one of the first openly gay men in his time and culture.

He called gay love "uranian love" and straight love "dionian love" after the two myths of the birth of Aphrodite in Platons "Symposion". Aphrodite Urania who was born from Uranus cut of genitalia and Aphrodite Dionea, who's parents were Zeus and Dione.A gay man was an "Urning" and a lesbian woman an "Urninde".

The german word "Schwul" for gay man is older than I thought, it was already used in the 19th century. Gay men were also called "warme Brüder" (warm brothers).

Ask Andan!

Ask my character Andan anything! I’m mainly doing this as character development work for an upcoming RP, so any questions are appreciated! Ask him about what he likes, dislikes, his past, his present, his future, pretty much anything! The responses will take the form of drawings.

[pitofghosts]

bloop 👀

Thank you for the bloop! Now for a fact.

Saoirse is really good at skating. He used to be better at it, but he can still skate backwards, and balance on one foot if he’s careful. He really likes to show off.

[arotaro]

i saw that youre having a bit of a hard time, and im not sure what to say, but im sending some love your way and i hope the rest of your day is nice

Thank you

[incandescent-creativity]

what plants would you describe your characters (from the SOLE project this time!) as?

Beth: I don’t know if coral counts as plants, I know they have algae inside their lil polyps but I don’t know what they’re classified as. I still wanna give her coral though.

Hans: pine tree

Hallie: lamb’s ear (that like super fuzzy plant)

Christian: cactus

Matt: redwood tree. Or a succulent. I know those are two wildly different things but yea

[sundaynightnovels]

lu pestering zhen ;) i love those two

the moment i saw your ask, i was inspired . but since it’s about the two of them, you should be fairly warned - it’s going to be a pile of rubbish. 

i love writing about them. 

also this takes place alongside the main novel’s events, right after that particularly important turning point that i mentioned before.

(the rest of it will be under the cut)

Snippet #2 - Zhen & Lu

(997 words)

okay yup that’s the end haha. so basically… shou’s living with them now (okay, not exactly living with them, zhen would argue) but lu didn’t know of it until… well, it gets revealed later on. and he’s not particularly happy about it because he doesn’t really like shou that much . because of the donkey incident. so yes.i’m not sure if my tag list would want to be involved in this but yknow what, imma tag them anyway so (ask to be off/on) @inked-waves @cabaretofwords @latechickadee @kidsarentallwrite&&& thanks so much for this ask pester’, i was like, this can go so many ways!!!!! and i just hopped onto my document to start writing it HAHA hope you like it!

[inspirited-goddess]

for demonica: do you have any ‘guilty pleasures’? if not, is there anything that pleases you a lot but would be frowned upon/scare others?

“You know, I do quite dearly enjoy feasting off the flesh of pesky little children.” *narrows eyes at you, smiling* “But of course, I can’t always devour my prey… So instead, I let my demons do all the dirty work. Not before a good fight, though, because we have to let you marinate a little bit. No use consuming your soul dry.”

.

Thanks so much for asking!

Send me an ask directed at one of my ocs and i’ll answer it in-character

[pen-for-sword]

hel l o i hope you dont mind asks about your characters, but which one of your characters (regardless of wip if you gave multiple; i honestly dont know how many you have) has/would have the strongest affinity with water, and why?

Hey-o Aqua! Thanks for sending this in, and no, I absolutely do not mind getting asks about my characters! :D

I have a lot of WIPs, though I’m (trying) to focus on just one right now. (Spoiler alert: It’s not working.)

Right off the top of my head, the character with the strongest affinity with water is Jole, the titular character and deuteragonist of Beached (Mermen & Other Disasters). Who better to fit this criteria than an actual kind-of merman, right?

Jole isn’t technically a merman—actually, he isn’t one at all. Jole is a proud triton…. and well, okay, he miiiiiight be partially mer way, waaaay up on his dad’s side, but no one ever talks about that (and trust me, there might not seem to be that big a difference between a triton and a mer, but UnderSea it’s a big deal). 

[ofvisitorsthefairest]

for teddy: do you have a favourite historical figure?

“Yes! Well, it’s more of a historical due. I love Plato and Aristotle. On one hand, Aristotle is the father of logic, and as a member of the debate team, I appreciate that. Then again, I love Plato’s theory on the origin of love. Personally, I find its romanticism charming. Plato also had his Academy, not to mention he was Aristotle’s mentor, so how can I really choose one over the other? Although by that logic, I should include Socrates as well.”

(Thanks for the ask!)

[theresconfettieverywherehelp]

ya asked, ya get. ramble about any one (or all) of your characters! i want to know how they talk and sleep and yell and cry, give me the good stuff

*pulls out character project files* My time has come.

Let’s see…. Ah yes, my murderous son and my cyclops. Let’s do those!

Micheal Anderson

Hey, there are links in his name. Which you should click. Without question.

So this is Micheal, also goes by “Dottie”. He’s actually the only character that I have at the moment that, in the story he’s written in, is introduced as a child. Like, other characters can have a flashback scene to when they were a child, but he just starts as a child character and the first half of his ark ends as a child character. Then he grows up in later stories.

Current playlist is “Toxic” by Britney Spears and “Bad Romance” by Lady Gaga (the Glee versions) because he has a habit of kind of just wanting to murder his romantic partners. But since these songs don’t really tell a story for him, they aren’t themes, just a playlist.

ANYWAYS

Micheal’s talking patterns are very… adaptive? He won’t talk to you if he doesn’t have to or until he knows how to interact with you. For example, he’s a pediatrician, so he knows how to talk to parents and small children. But if a random person were to start a conversation with him, he would probably just stare until they go away. Though, if they find a way to fiddle some conversation out of him, he has a terrible stutter, is fairly quiet, and is a man of few words.

He is on a fair sleep schedule. 7 hours when he has plans the next day, free for all if his schedule’s open. How does he maintain such a schedule? Sleep drugs. Lots of very strong, dreamless sleep drugs. If you shot him with a tranquilizer dart, he would probably pull it out and keep on his merry way. Then proceed to pass out when he got home. He’s not immune, just tolerant.

Yell…. How does Micheal yell? His temper doesn’t really give to the point that he yells. He did cut all of his fingers off his left hand to attach a tooled prosthetic. If he didn’t have a cloth in his mouth, I’d assume the sound coming out of his mouth would be like he literally had glass and blood coming up.

And he cries silently. He’s not very vocal, doesn’t hiccup. He just breaths super hard and, in the worst case scenario, he digs his nails into his arms ‘til they bleed.

Quick reminder that I love him very much and am very sorry for putting him through this.

Aislin Shores

Aislin, my monster character! Honestly, I don’t know what they are. A cyclops? Alien? My own little bit of a fever dream? Yeah. Tumblr won’t let me include more than one photo, so just use your imagination. Or the links. Links work, too. There’s two links in Aislin’s name.

Aislin is a Dream Caster. A Dream Caster can literally make their dreams come true. They want a sword? Boom, they got a sword. Want food? Got food. Want a completely sentient friend? Bestie right before your eye(s). Only downside: Extremely narcoleptic and have a bad sense of what is and isn’t real.

Aislin’s theme song at the moment is “Sweet Dreams” by Beyonce.

This dork either speaks in riddles, cryptic phrases, or not at all. The thing with that is that they’ll forget that it’s rude to talk inside of people’s heads instead of just opening their mouth. So what happens is that you either have this cyclops with blue dreadlocks staring at you very intensely or a long haired stoner that is constantly touching you and you’re hearing whispers make it stop.

Narcoleptic. Passes out constantly. Now, some might think that being a narcoleptic pirate captain would be very inconvenient, but take into account that Dream Caster bodies are made to last. And by last, I mean defend itself, even when asleep. Or, better known as sleepwalking. You think a cyclops with long limbs and claws coming at you with a sword would be scary? How about a cyclops with an eye on the end of every dreadlock coming at you with two swords? Ye.

Aislin does not yell. At all. They just nope. Like, if they stub their toe. Lay down on the floor and wait for the pain to stop. Sees a jumpscare in a movie. Leaves. Wife dies in front of them. Picks up her corpse, jumps off the side of the ship, hopes they drown and that there’s a heaven. But those are just examples, you know?

Cries over everything. What they don’t show in vocals, they show in tears. If they get angry enough, they start crying. If they’re in pain, they start crying. If their wife dies, they start crying. Y’know, just a big stream of water behind that (those) eye(s).

Love my weird kids.
