Hi I love your writings!! Will you write headcannons for Ogun with a black gf? What would the dynamic be like and if you could include him helping the reader with their hair?
hi! this is very sweet and a very very cute request, but i will not be writing it, i’m so sorry!
first, i feel it would be disrespectful to write a black reader while knowing the limited amount that i do about black culture and hairstyles. i am not black, and i do not feel it is my place to characterize a black person while not being one, or knowing what being black is like in the slightest. (i hope this isn’t disrespectful in any way and if so please do let me know!)
also, it states in my rules that i do not write appearance/gender specific readers in my works; i want to be as inclusive as possible and i don’t want anyone to feel left out with my writings. this goes without saying- i 100% support black fan fiction writers writing about black readers! i just personally don’t feel comfortable specifying race/ethnicity while i do not have experience being anything but a white person lol. i make my writings as neutral as i can for this specific reason, so that way every single reader feels included. i hope i’m doing a good job in making everyone feel included, and if i ever do or say anything that isn’t inclusive please let me know!
