oh I am so jealous about your non-gendered language (as someone who also only uses they/them)
The only way to use non-gendered pronouns here in greece is to call people 'it', as in the 'this is an object' type of 'it' which obviously isnt what most people are looking for

Byrd: Dad?
Oscar: Morning, bud.. miserable day, huh? I’m not looking forward to packing up in the rain.
Oscar: Did you sleep okay?
Byrd: Erm…
Oscar: GO GET YOUR HEARING AIDS!
[Byrd fidgeted guilty, implying that he’d lost yet another pair]
Byrd: [sobs] Why do I have to be deaf without them, papa-.. s’not fair.
[Oscar held Byrd tightly, stroking his back until his sobs subsided somewhat]
Oscar: LET’S SEE WHAT WE CAN DO…
[Oscar plonked Byrd outside as he rummaged through his bags, eventually producing a backup pair of hearing aids]
Oscar: Better?
[Byrd nodded gratefully, burying his snotty nose in his father’s hair as he threw his arms around him]
Oscar: Maybe you ought to think twice about learning SSL.
Byrd: What’s the point? No one else knows it.
Oscar: Robin does, and we all know bits n’ pieces, don’t we?
[Byrd grumbled disinterestedly]
Oscar: I think it’s long overdue, pal-.. what if we all learn it together? Properly this time.
Byrd: I guess…
Oscar: All I heard was yes.
Byrd: Are you deaf too?
Oscar: [snorts] C’mon, we’ll probably find the other pairs as we clear up.
Wren: Daaaaad, it’s raining!
Oscar: The faster we get goin’, the faster we’ll be in the car-.. I bet Wren can pack up faster than you.
Byrd: [gasps] NO WAY!

Handplates x Sweeney Todd Doodles
I’m back on my nonsense :P I’m still on my Handplates kick, but ALSO watched Sweeney Todd recently, so this is the end result or something idk.
Handplates, as always belongs to @zarla-s! Dialogue stolen from Stephen Sondheim’s Sweeney Todd.

One thing I've noticed about the erasure of aspec identities is that it's eerily familiar to the erasure of non-binary identities. Often times Aspec identities are viewed as Blank slates to slap other identities on top of - similar to non-binary identities.
A character uses strictly they/them and people will say "Okay but I'm going to use he/him or she/her because x looks like a boy/girl to me"
A character strictly states they are not interested in romance and people will say "okay but I'm going to call them a lesbian/gay/any other sexuality because obviously they must be interested in x even though they said they weren't interested at all."
"I can ignore this characters canonical non-binary identity because people can headcanon whatever they want and I headcanon them as cis instead! no this isn't erasure!!! it's fiction it doesn't hurt anyone! pronouns don't equal gender anyways!!!"
"I can ignore this characters canonical aspec identity because people can ship/headcanon whatever they want and I headcanon this character as allo/not aspec instead! no this isn't erasure!!! it's fiction it doesn't hurt anyone! aspecs can still date and have sex anyways!!!"
idk as someone who is both nonbinary and aroace I'm having a sense of déjà vu.

oh boy !! ! ! ! !!! !
thANK y0u all for the kind words on my last art posts. you all get it and i was/still am so happy about it
as promised, here's some close-ups of the comic for image quality's sake, and other screenshots i rescued from the community whiteboard
(and something else)
first up another sketch of mystery gender-ambiguous being.
(please send me more name ideas for them if you got one- i like to hear em! (reminder it's the side character that appeared for <10 seconds in AvM Ep. 30))
a few fav scenes
emotional support cwab
they weren't meant for this purpose exactly, but i do have countless "fluffy sticks" loose in my notes and homework sheets from the school years.
papery critter.
even when i wasn't confident in fur or feathers, they helped me practice posing and create some satisfying gradients/flowing poses.
(im a sucker for good tail poses) (oh yay! i found a good pic...)
and finally,
little sneak peak for you for reading so far ;3
i realized that whiteboardfox is pretty great for my working needs. simple and to the point and all. feels nice with the mouse and the tablet.
so i started hashing out a big project idea just to see if it holds up and
[
several hours later ...
]
oh
oh man
it's a little bigger than i expected
<next>

Obsessed loser Grant getting purposely paired with Jason for a group project. Idk how he would do it but he would.
Also, Dick finding out and trying to say something to Jason about Grant being a FREAK and Jason is just like “Grant? The cute guy who spoken like 3 words to me? What are you talking about Dick?”
Oh my god yeah!!
Lmao poor Dick he's shaking Jason by the shoulders, frothing at the mouth, "Jay, Jason, Little Wing, please. You don't know what he's capable of. You don't know what he's DONE." He's haunted by memories of itch powder in his jock strap and the time the water cooler was spiked with laxatives. No one could prove it was Grant, but Dick KNOWS.
and Jason just laughs him off because Grant is harmless, he barely even speaks! Honestly he's nothing but sweet to Jason, pulling out his chair for him in their shared history class and saving Jason a spot at the front of the line so he always gets first pick for lunch. Jason has a casual crush, but he doesn't seriously entertain it. He doesn't really listen to Dick either, all of his complaints go in one ear and out the other as he texts Grant to decide where to meet up.
Grant is more talkative over text, he learns. More confident and with a wicked sense of humor Jason hadn't anticipated. Grant always takes a while to type out responses, but Jason figures he's just shy, maybe he's got anxiety or something. Jason tries to be extra patient and if the homemade treats Grant brings when his mom makes too much is an indication, Jason assumes it's appreciated.
Grant is genuinely moments from passing out every second they spend together, he's never been this close to Jason for this long!! He smells so good and he has such a nice voice and he's so smart. Grant makes sure to go above and beyond on his share of the work, maybe the most effort he's put into school ever, because he knows Jason often gets saddled with all the work on group projects and Grant refuses to be another one of those leeches. A glimpse at his grades prompts Jason to offer to study with him. JASON!! OFFERED!! TO SPEND TIME WITH HIM!! Grant didn't even have to force it!!! His delusional ass is convinced this is a sign Jason wants him but Jason genuinely just feels bad lmao.
Unfortunately this causes a problem, his parents notice his grades going up too. And they're thrilled initially, but he eventually has to spill he's kind of being tutored by a friend to dodge cheating allegations. Obviously Addie wants to invite the nice boy over for family dinner to thank him. Grant is sweating bullets, terrified that the carefully constructed web of lies and persona he's built for Jason is about to be shattered, the mess that is his family is going to drive Jason away before their relationship ever has a chance.

KNIGHT YUTA!!!!
loyal to a fault… indescribably lovestruck…. knows no bounds when it comes to protecting you…. is supposed to be your knight, but assumes the duties of your butler too just because he wants to take care of you in every way possible, hates the thought of somebody else being this close to you… doesn’t think any of your suitors are deserving of you… kneels before you every chance he gets even though he’s not always required to, it’s important to him to bow to you, to hang his head and worship the ground you walk on… worries you when he meets you in the garden and there’s blood on his face, and all he can do is smile, and be happy because “it is not mine, but how blessed am i to have my princess worry for me”
