I'm glad self-inserts and mary sues have been (for the most part) accepted by fandom. Or, at the very least, they aren't as hated on and attacked as they were in the past.

In the ye olde days™, 12-year-old me was absolutely terrified of making a "mary sue," to the point that I wouldn't post anything I made. Even worse, the characters I did make were dull and boring to achieve "realism." God forbid would I even THINK of making a character that was anywhere close to me as a person. Luckily, I was able to grow past this and started making art that made me happy, no matter what others might think. But what about the other 12 year olds who saw that their OCs were "bad" and got discouraged? There's so many people out there who stopped engaging in art simply because they made an OP character.

Creating characters is about expressing your creativity and feeling a connection to your art. It's going to be a different, unique experience for everyone. For one person, that might mean making a gritty, realistic OC. For another, it could be making a perfect version of themself to ship with a character they like. If making that "bad" mary sue is what makes someone happy, let them do it! Focus on what makes you happy and thats what matters. (live and let live basically).

Basically, if you want to make a character, DO IT!! Make that Undertale self-insert that dates Sans! Draw your neon pink alicorn princess pony! Feed your inner-child and create what makes you HAPPY!!!

Hm. Another popular elucien artist said they were going to work with fanfic writers to make comics, and then you post this? it's giving major jealousy and pick me energy if you ask me.

Hi Anon!!

I am going to assume you're talking about my latest post where I posted a preview of a comic I'm working on. I'll be honest and say that I'm not entirely sure of which artist you're referring to, but if they're going to do comics, I think that's awesome!! I'd personally love to see people's fics come to life in illustrated form and I'm sure the fanbase would love that too!

Your ask seems to suggest that I'm trying to 'compete' with someone or try to undermine the task by posting my own and I can assure you, that's the last thing I'm doing. I've actually done quite a few Elucien comics! In fact, shortly after I made this account, I posted an Elucien comic that you can find here.

I've done a few others, like the gag one about Elain making cream puffs based off a funny Gif @starsreminisce posted and had a conversation of here . I've even done one for Elucien week for their Mask prompt. This one

You see, drawing/writing comics is a way that I, and many others including @luciensdefenseattorney contribute to this fandom. It's one of many ways we can, and I know there are other very pupular artists who also do comics! It isn't bad if someone wants to dip their toes into creating them or not, I think as an artist and community, we can all come together and share in the works and labor that others put forth, for the love of this fandom!

I do comics quite a lot, I've done them in other fandoms, and actually create them for my job. This isn't new to me, or new to others, so I'm not sure how posting my preview now is 'pick me'? Hopefully this clears up any confusion. Again, if others want to do that, go for it! I don't know why some people believe only one person can participate in any particular way and others cannot.

i don’t know who needs to hear this, but disabled punks, you don’t have to go into the pit to have a good time. don’t put yourself in an uncomfortable situation if you don’t think you’d enjoy it.

at the same time, let’s not judge disabled people who do want be in the pit! some people will actively choose to mosh knowing it might cause pain/a flare-up and, in the politest way possible, it’s really not your business. it’s their body and only they should get to make those decisions. i will always encourage being in tune with your own needs and not pushing yourself too far, but like everyone else, it’s a risk many take and accept when getting into the pit. a lot of us are gonna be disabled our whole lives. we should be allowed to do fun things too

Next time you're feeling unaccomplished for your age, just remember until you're over 36, you've spent most of your life as a child.

Until 50, you've spent less than half your life with a fully developed brain.

It's okay to take your time

It's okay to restart

It's okay to change

Life milestones don't have age limits

You're doing amazing going at your pace.

Celebrate your Autistic Self Because…

Celebrate your autistic self because...

... you are wonderful just the way you are.

... you are incredibly sensitive to the sensory beauty of the world

…the smallest details that others miss, are like shiny little stars for you

... your passions and creative approaches create a wonderland in your head

... your unique love languages shows a whole new world to your loved ones

…you know what it is like to be different, and you are compassionate to others

…you are you and that is more than enough.

so today …

...just do a little something to celebrate yourself.

Something that fills your heart with pure joy or comforts you if you have a bad day:

Whether it is your favourite fidget toy/ stim/ special interest activity/ comfort food/TV show/song, or simply hugging a plushie and covering yourself with a blanket, just do it and then take a little time to think about how a beautiful person you are!

Recently decided that I deserve to be happy and will be doing things that make me happy and if that makes anybody I know uncomfortable I will simply stop interacting with them
