helloooo ridi. I have been thinking about young r/s a lot and I know that you describe them (especially s) as being "strange" about the other before they ever talked about their feelings and I wanted to ask if you had any examples that come to mind

hiiii love!! yah absolutely!! predicting my own too-long rambling response 2 this by adding a cut straight away but. i do have thoughts :^)

obviously usual disclaimer that this is. speculation this is my headcanon and in answering im probably going to take for granted a lot of insights into the general mwpp dynamic that other people might (and are free to) disagree with xx but for me personally!! i am one for them always sensing that their feelings towards each other r a little strange compared to their other friendships within the group long before they manage to identify romantic feelings from platonic ones or just generally understand what it is they feel for each other. n im going to go mostly with s here because i think a good way of laying it out is by contrasting it with the way i view his dynamic with j, although for the record i definitely imagine r to always feel a little strange towards s too.

i do genuinely think s loved j in a way that is perhaps. pointless to label as either platonic or romantic but in a way that was very different to the way he felt about r and i think. that difference at first is all he's aware of. he meets j and they are a double-act they're a two-headed monster they're each other's phantom limb they're thick as thieves they're more than brothers but i think immediately his dynamic and his closeness with r are very different and thus strange to him. they are not a double-act. he does not always know what r is thinking (although he wants to). their intimacy feels strange because it is not intimacy as a product of like. familiarity or similarity the way his intimacy with james is (horribly clumsy way of wording that but hopefully you can make some sense of it). i wouldn't necessarily go as far as to call them opposites because i think in a lot of ways they aren't, at all, but to me it is the difference between sitting next to someone at a table (j) and sitting across from them (r).

and i think the uncertainty when it comes 2 his relationship with r and his feelings about r mean that he sort of craves it more yknow (especially because he. unconsciously thinks a close relationship with r is infinitely worth earning). he seeks it out. r can make him uncomfortable and he likes that. i think he would go out of his way to make r laugh i think he would get a certain sense of triumph out of accomplishing it that he wouldnt look for/need with james. r's general aura of strange wistfulness and melancholy also contributes to this (and this is partly why i hesitate to position them as opposites) because although their experiences are so so different there is an understanding of. suffering? trauma? whatever you would like to call it that s can get from r that james (although he is very loving) just cannot provide because he has not experienced that. the discussions he has with r are not the same ones he has with j. the fact that r is more difficult to get close 2 and to make smile etc makes s want to try harder to accomplish it. and he wouldnt necessarily recognise that in himself but i do think if he tells a joke and everyone laughs he is conscious of the fact that he gets the most reward from having made r laugh. and not only that but he wants the person who makes r laugh to be him.

i do also think he is just. softer about r. whether or not he realizes it or whether he thinks his softness is just a result of r seeming more melancholy to him than the others/post-lycanthropy discovery just feeling the need (rightly or wrongly) to be more protective over him. like they are twelve n s will playfight and roughhouse j all day for fun but with r he will only ever. pretend to do it or mime doing it or do it very gently not just because r is generally in worse health but also because the idea of accidentally actually hurting r is genuinely very distressing to him. also touching him a lot probably also make s' stomach hurt and makes him go all sweaty and light-headed for reasons he doesn't want to explore. idk i am sure this has gotten far too long by now but i think. the strangeness is best felt by both of them when comparing how they feel about each other with how they feel about their other friends. its an intimacy that does not even resemble anything brotherly or familial and at their young age that is what they think it means to be friends with someone. it is not comparable with anyone else it is not as easily labelled it is full of hesitations and private moments and give and take and it trembles and it shapeshifts and it doesn't let anyone else in. there is essentially a private joke between them, except neither of them are in on it.

[our-transmasculine-experience]

I am so confused

I came out to my parents as trans just over a year ago, and I don’t think that they have ever used the correct pronouns. I didn’t ask to be called by a different name because I decided that they may struggle with all that at once. But most of the time it’s like it never happened - like they forgot.

but now again, such as today, I pass as my preferred gender and that get brought up later on, but not in a malicious way I don’t think (I’m not very good with social cues however), in a hey that was cool for you kinda way instead.

Have you forgotten an integral part of my identity that took years to tell you or not????

parents take a while to come around, and if i understand the ask, it seems like they’re starting to, which is great!

Dread and Bermuda shows the dichonomy of what truly makes a monster. Bermuda is a person consumed by grief, (Although this does Not justify murdering anyone and everyone who's not a mermaid-) It's horribly tragic that his actions were, ultimatedly, out of love until he spiraled into a neverending cycle of violence, He never learned how to cope and his pain turned him into a tragic monster meanwhile Dread does things the way he does because of the sheer lack of a moral compass and honor in general, he enjoys hurting unnecesarily those who have crossed him and has a severe disregard for the people around him, he actively chooses the idea of glory and treasure over any kind of personal relationships and is willing to cross the line to get what he wants. And both end up completely and utterly alone because of that. The thing here (I think) Is that fate didn't gave Bermuda an option (But Sonic might give him one) and obviously will face consequences meanwhile is up to speculation if Dread is even able to look past his delusions of grandeur even if it costs him his life...

and ain't it all just so compelling

there’s a certain taste to the air when hawkins is a couple days deep into a heat wave. dry. heavy. sticky, clinging to the back of steve's throat and the surface of his skin. though he’s sticky, too, because of the mix of sweat and sunscreen and dried seawater on him. he feels like he’s fused to billy’s shoulder where his head rests, tired out from nothing but water and sun and fresh, hot air.

“this is an awful lot of effort,” billy had complained hours before, when they’d carried steve’s grandpa’s canoe to the shore as the morning warmth of a sweltering night was fading into blistering heat. 

steve had tried to reassure him. “don’t worry, you’ll like it” but billy’s expression remained doubtful, right until they were seated and off the shore.

it’s a sturdy little boat, once chosen by his parents for those summer visits when his grandpa still came around and would insist on taking him out on the water. and it was still sturdy now, easily carrying him and billy and a whole pack of water, food and towels away from the most popular, easy to reach part of the lake.

there's nooks and crannies everywhere, changing a little every year with the rain and foliage reshaping the wilder parts of the shore over time. of course, there’s easier spots for privacy, but true, tucked away seclusion is worth the extra effort when you don’t want to come across a bunch of overly curious teenagers.

billy’s eyes had scanned the treeline. “how do you choose the right spot?” 

“you know it when you see it.”

and of course, steve knew. 

that’s why they're still here, as evening shadows fall over their heads and into the water. as the heat still boils steve’s blood to syrup and pours him into billy’s arms, hidden behind a tree fallen into the water, whose half-drowned crown still valiantly grows shiny green leaves.

a hand lands heavy and warm on the back of steve’s neck. billy’s thumb idly brushes through his hair where it’s slightly curled with sweat. his eyelids flutter, heavy with exhaustion. everything is quiet. safe.  he’s spent an entire day watching billy’s shoulders relax, his grin transform into a softer, rarer smile. there’s sweetness in him, hidden underneath prickly layers.

steve’s spent all summer carrying his own heart on his sleeve, waiting to get hurt yet unable to reel himself back in. has watched billy pull away, then get drawn back in immediately.  in this moment, though, when the birds start their evening concert and their legs are tangled up together, as the summer heat refuses to fade even as the sun sets, steve feels content. he lets billy ift his head up. meets soft lips with his own. bottles the moment up in his heart, to keep him warm forever.

A Love Letter to Newt Scamander’s Autism™ and a Plea to Those Continually Gloating About the ‘Failure’ of the FB Franchise

(this is stream-of-consciousness really, forgive me)

Look. I…dislike…JKR as much as the next politically active gender/queer who was raised on Harry Potter and subsequently spent their 20s raging against the binary and tearing down the system.

But look—

I’m also autistic.

So I can’t pretend to be able to celebrate the potential crash of the first fantasy franchise/series (well, any franchise, really!) to star an empathetic, autistic hero just because I hate her.

The lady has enough money to pave Europe, enough money to buy anyone’s votes—hell, enough money to probably repurchase the entire bloody (pun intended) British empire—

And she frankly has enough money to attempt to destroy trans folks and trans women’s lives whether or not FB continues.

FB is not the root of the problem.

JKR and the increasingly inflammatory political and economic and social moments we keep hurtling through are the problem.

So when I think back on that lonely, autodidactic, quiet, gender nonconforming, gentle, awkward, morally driven (and sometimes-accidentally-in-trouble) eleven-year-old version of me—

That little nerd who clung to the safety of Hermione (as close to a relatable fictional character as I would ever find for decades) like a life raft in the godforsaken sea of adolescence—

Well.

When I think how much Newt Scamander would have meant to that little dork then,

And how much he must mean to so many kids now (let alone adults)…?

I just can’t find it in my heart to purely wish ill on every single one of JKR’s endeavors. Or to celebrate JKR’s failure specifically regarding Fantastic Beasts.

(So maybe Cursed Child can die in a fire, and —yes — JKR’s isms and antisemitisms and absolute crock can—

Well.

You get the idea.)

And maybe it’s the Hufflepuff in me—masked so often by my more ADHD-forward Gryffindor traits—but I just can’t take joy in an atypical, kind, adult autistic character—an unusual hero, in fact!—being [potentially] cancelled when I know it not only hurts me, but so so many others. It’s not joyous to me that people are losing something dear to them, when it’s not the media itself that’s damning but the woman who dreamed it into existence. (Though so much of the good of FB was built by the producers and artists and actors—it was built out by them like a wood-elf in a well-tended garden. The core of it—the trellis, perhaps—was provided by she-who-must-not-be-named, but all that delicate work in between? the moments of worldbuilding, the nuance of character and culture and blah blah blah? they wove the intricacies of the fabric and fashioned the clothes to hang in her closet.)

But I’ve mixed my metaphors and I digress.

What I mean to say is this:

A franchise like FB being cancelled is nuanced and complicated—especially since WB is gonna milk the Wizarding World for all it’s worth even if they do drop FB. This is a multifaceted issue spanning individual, political, capitalistic, societal, etc etc overlapping and contradictory levels, and we should treat it that way, not the way I’ve seen it circulated in posts—just laughing about how JKR had it coming and skimming over all the rest.

Like yes, duh.

Of course she did.

Those of us who grew up on HP rejected her for the very same reasons we loved HP in the first place.

But use your critical thinking skills.

The world is bigger than JKR—art and media have implications and impacts outside of their origin. And, thus, implications for supporting or enjoying something exist on multiple levels that must sometimes be carefully measured and interrogated, even if individually or factionally we come to our own different—and perhaps opposite—conclusions.

So i’m just proposing: maybe we should reconsider taking joy in Fantastic Beasts failure when FB is about so much more than just JKRs considerable sins —

When so many people have seen in Eddie Redmayne’s Newt Scamander the first character who truly acts like them, moves like them, speaks like them—seems to see the world like them!—for the first time in their lives.

Because yes: JKR’s views and horrific anti-trans and—frankly—anti-anti-anti-everything campaigning are personal, but so is what Newt has come to represent.

Words can’t describe that for me. What he means, from an autistic perspective.

Anyway.

I only request that you place your thinking in the complex context it deserves.

.

.

Also, please don’t viciously @ me. I’m open to nuanced conversation, should I have the word-energy to engage—though I have been teetering on the edge of a shutdown for days—but I’m not open to being torn apart for loving quality autistic representation, and for simply wishing I could have more of that character and that content in the world. To not always have to be the one to push for it. To not always have to be the one to write my own representation, to seek it out, to demand I’m worth space and consideration as a reader and consumer with intersectional identities— 

It’s complicated. 

But I’m tired. 

And potentially losing Newt really isn’t funny to me.
