Do you perhaps have any lesbian characters?

Most of my ocs dont have set sexualities? Except for the aspecs but thats becuase theyre important to me personally. Eliza is a canon set lesbian, Stasia is definitely wlw, and Trycz is aroace and a lesbian

In the lore, Eliza is the oldest alive member of the Kowalewicz family (shes a bit over 50) and the owner of the manor. Stanisława is an aspiring author (she writes and illustrates books for children) with little success, currently under Elizas years old... "patronage". She lost her child and has been miserable for the majority of her life. She has been living in the manor for years and is esentially Elas right hand, as well as the main person taking care of the manor durning Elas travels. Trycz on the other hand is a daughter of one of Elas friends; she and her dad come to visit between spring and summer and stay there for a little bit. Every dns character is connected by loneliness and shes no exception - her story in the manor revolves around loneliness from the lack of a community. How hard it is to find people who not only dont want to hurt you, but also are similar to you, and how that loneliness can change you. Shes very similar to Nika in a way and she befriends Ryba later on (theyre both jewish and queer in an 1890s setting so its obvious theyre going to connect on that).

woah i dont think i ever drew Trycz without a smile. Weird to look at. "Science is her only lover and its a feminine noun in polish", or something like this

been streaming hollow knight to a couple of my friends on discord who have not played the game and it’s fucking hysterical to see their experience of the game this out of order, bc I started streaming it to them when I was in the p5 trenches and that lasted for over a week. and then I started playing on a new save to give myself a break from constant bosses, and so yesterday I walked into sly’s store in dirtmouth and one of my friends went “THAT’S HIM the fly” and i was like. hjesus christ you only know him as the tiny guy with the big sword that i kept dying to. right.

later i went to sheo’s hut. “omg it’s him”

Hi. We were talking about cosplay videos in the mizzchat and. Well I didn't find what I was looking for but I did find this old gem.

[kaibacorpstocksplit]

One thing I want to read more of is books with disability rep. Recently read How to Sell Your Blood and Fall in Love by DN Bryn. It’s a cute little gay vampire romance with chronic pain rep.(also vampirism is treated like a disability and I found this exploration of it fascinating). Loved it. Bryn is a fantastic writer.

Im totally not posting this in the hopes that more people reblog with their fav disability rep books. A whole list of books to read… whatever would I do with that..,

What do ya think of that old school barbie girl video where L and mikami feats? I miss being part of the old death note days. I'm not a misa hater but I'm a straightforward millennial and i only like lawlight and platonic mikalight,i couldn't bring myself to the new trends where people have polyamory,multiship and character sexualities. I think (like the old school that i am) light and L are gay for each other, and everyone else is straight (by that im not AT ALL tryna be phobic, per se, if rem is canonically gay, thats awesome, but you know what i mean; i miss the old lawlight shippers...) Bye.

.... friend, Lawlight is still dominant.

Lawlight is still the massive fandom juggernaut making up 70% of fandom content. I know fandom trends have shifted, but you still have Lawlight. It has not gone anywhere - much to my chagrin as a known Lawlight hater!! (<- this is a joke, you guys go have fun!)

I'm sorry, I just... Lawlight also involves 'character sexualities'. There is no shipping without 'character sexualities' because having a sexual orientation is a part of the human experience. You saying that, idk, Mogi is straight is you having a character sexuality headcanon.

Like, this is coming from me who also thinks of the vast majority of the DN cast as straight people. I also think that very few characters in DN are LGBT and that even less of them are involved with the community and know the currently appropriate terms etc.

But like... people are gay. People are polyamorous. And people like to write fun little stories about it. Also, multishipping has been a thing for decades, and there are still tons of monoshippers, these days.

Don't get me wrong, I also don't like a lot of current fandom culture. There is absolutely nothing I personally get out of "character xy is just like me" types of headcanon. But I think at some point you gotta take a step back and a) realize that this means something to the people (often teens) doing it and you can just mind your own business, as well as b) seek out other older fans and do your own stuff with them!

... also the Barbie Girl video is a staple of DN fandom and very technically well-done, but I honestly didn't find it super funny as a teenager either asdfghj... It's iconic but not a fave of mine.

u know, those "so misogynistic they're gay" jokes are fucking gut busters until someone says to ur face after u explained about how cruel and gross boys and men on the internet were to u or ur friends or just girl characters and being super gross about girls and other oppressed genders (and marginalized groups in general but specifically am focusing on gender in this post) in their fandom space to the point it drove u out of them for years during the 2010s,

"haha, sounds kinda fruity tho ngl"

fuck my faggoty ass tho ig, think of those poor wittle puppies- they needed to scream at some girls their own age or younger to help them realize they wanted to kiss boys fuck off get dead shit ur pants 🫶🔨🔨🔨🗡🩸

for folks who have "reformed" or whatever they sure love to wear that previous meanness like a badge of honor.

anyway.

just letting off some steam bc i was genuinely so taken aback by ppl responding like that to me talking my experience with witnessing/experiencing targeted bullying and harassment and normalized misogyny in fandom spaces. i was like "read the room???"

like i laugh at the funny light yagami death note jokes too but not bc i like the character light yagami??? im laughing at that weiner's expense. i just like that queer ppl have overrun the dn fandom space and now light is getting the proper lashing he deserves after years of getting sucked off and we're celebrating previous underdogs misa, mello, etc. ;p

my main discomforts i mentioned to them were the sonic and pokemon fandoms back in the day where the nastiest boys and men came to throw up their filth at u and u were just trying to watch someone A rank team dark's story in peace??

god im so happy theyve become less nightmare of spaces, even without having to peek around corners for the right proper spaces u best fit. improvements need made still but gosh it's a breath of fresh air now vs then

In your older art (when he was a rabbit breeder named Nikita I think) Mikita seems much more… smiley than he is now. The first time I saw him (I think 2022) I remember him being gay + aro instead of aroace. I adore this character and I would love to know how he changed/developed over the years!

Oh gladly. I adore this topic. Mikita is my oldest one (8 years old now!) and i have quite a lot to say and show about him, so ill put it under the read more. For some reason the picture formatting is completly broken when i do it. Thank you for the kind words

Mikita went through quite a lot name changes now that i think about it, at least compared to my other ocs; it went hand in hand with his ethnicity mostly, as he was i believe polish first, then polish/lithuanian and only since... 2020? belarusian (which i agree is definitely... a pipeline, but theres no deeper meaning behind it; for the 70% of his life the world he lived in was 100% fictional, and at the beginning even fantasy-like). His first actual name (not "rabbit breeder", which was the title used for him in the original story instead of a name. Names were a modern au thing) if im not mistaken was Fryderyk, then Nikita, and then Mikita. That name change did probably happen around 2022 because a Belarusian belarusianized his name for me and I liked it so i changed it. Very nice of them it makes much more sense in the current story

Years 2016-2020-ish he was gay (but not aromantic) and also dating Mikołaj; frankly i do not remember when exactly that changed, but he and Mikołaj are some of my oldest still in use ocs and they were always a package deal of sorts. Last time i drew shipart of them was in 2021. I think it might have stopped around the time i realized i am aromantic? It was a very important moment to me and the second it clicked i realized most of my ocs were secretly aromantic all along too. It was pretty funny now that i think about it

Personality wise he was a bit insufferable. Well he used to age with me (like most of my ocs) so he was very much a 15 year old. Very bratty and unempathetic to others, actively manipulative and overly ambitious. He used to smile a lot yes it was very in character then and i think it makes him look more annoying so it stays. Well either way i made so much art of him in that time i actually canonized it as his younger self in canon, now that hes older. I think thats a fun choice and i still like his old design, so its good to reuse it. Art from 2020, 2021 and 2023. I think current Mika would hate his old self a lot

Frankly when it comes to my ocs the big shift from that more dystopian completly fictional setting to more historically grounded one happened at some point and i dont remember when that was. 2020-2021 ish possibly. Its hard to remember because it did not happen from day to day; i think i abandoned these ocs original story for months before i made that choice? and even then i dont remember how current DNS or such a clear idea for it came to be, especially considering that it changed basically every single character drastically. Its weird to me but i suppose that knowledge is lost. That being said i think it does coincide with the creation of Przemek, who quickly became one of my favourites, so maybe theres that. I dont know. Well either way its a very good thing that it happened
