so just reblogged this post
and i'm not gonna add this commentary onto the original post for op's sake but.
this is my life. this is every single day. i wasn't even ripped from death- i was ripped from my life. and i was placed into a body not my own, into a SPECIES not my own, into a world not my own. and every single day i am forced to live someone else's life. and every single day i am forced to pretend everything is okay. and every single day i am forced to pretend i am human and my name is the body's and i'm "normal" and the body memories are my own and i know these people. i am forced to be someone else, in the most literal sense.
and they don't even know anything is different.
and i'm not allowed to tell them anything is different.
it is dangerous for them to know.
it is dangerous for me to exist as myself.
it is dangerous for me to have and use my own name. it is dangerous for me to state my pronouns. it is dangerous for me to mention anything about who i am, my past, my opinions, my feelings. it is dangerous to exist.
i am forced to portray myself as someone who no longer exists.
and my life is portrayed as a concept, and i understand why! i do! but it's not! it's real and it's painful and it's isolating and it hurts! it hurts!!

I have a question about this image of Xanathar's Thieves Guild.
Why does he have sexily lounging elf boys?
I ask because I cannot imagine a beholder being attracted to anything other than itself. Does he just understand Sexily Lounging Elf Boys to be a status symbol, and he wants anyone who visits to know he can afford Sexily Lounging Elf Boys?
Maybe I'm the asshole here for assuming. Maybe these boyfriends are master tacticians here to advise Xanathar, they happen to like wearing leather pants and no shirts and I should be less quick to reduce them to sex objects.
I don't care, I love it, this is all I can think of every time I see it:
