Someone needs to explain to me how the fuck some of y'all are watching THIS and sitting there going, "Huh, I wonder if there's some deeper meaning behind this?"

so, just for the record, staff's blatantly discriminatory rules enforcement practices are only half the story. like, if you ever find yourself wondering why trans women are always getting termed right after their posts about transmisogyny start getting numbers (and mysteriously start getting mature content flagged for seemingly no reason), its bc there are a couple of specific circles of people who mass report tgirls who talk about that sort of thing too loudly (or, y'know, they're just generally annoyed by). there's at least one discord server more or less dedicated to the practice to my knowledge and i wouldn't be surprised if there were more.

staff, of course, can perform the tied hands routine bc of this - they're just responding to reports! and now that the first ban is served, any subsequent attempts to rebuild one's social life are read as Ban Evasion. girls are left with the non-choice of permanent exile or starting over from scratch, trying to be quieter this time so they don't get found. this is the point, and its being done with purpose by people who, funnily enough, spend most of their time talking about the importance of Community. lol and lmao

If I may hazard a guess, the grotesques are a hammer of a metaphor regarding trans people, disable individuals, and other minorities seen as “monsters”.

Of all the woes of the world, of all the terrible curses that fall upon the land, the Grotesques are said to be one of the most wretched. Horrid malformations of reborn flesh, where essence from the great cycle has been corrupted and spat out in disgusting forms. The Church of Divine Wealth labels them abominations, symbols of sin that has blasphemed the wondrous cycle we all worship. Few argue with such claims, as the Grotesques are truly revolting in the eyes of many and they are happy to see them burned.

Yet, of all the horrid blights that torment folk, the Grotesques actually seem one of the lessers. Plenty of their melting, misshapen forms are too mangled to be a proper threat, and many more seem to flee at the sight of others rather than fight. While teams of Church warriors seek out these creatures and cut them down, watchers of the carnage could note that these battles are incredibly one-sided. If one would hold off in their hate for just a moment, they would see these "demons" and "monstrosities" cower in terror and plead in wretched gurgles for mercy. Despite what many believe, it would seem that not all Grotesques are mindless malformed monsters.

Nymus is a Grotesque who fancies themself as a noble knight. A rather odd creature when compared to what these abominations are said to be. They are not mindless, in fact, they can speak in coherent tongues. Their speech is dripping with chivalry and honor, as they hold themself as a proud warrior and a righteous defender. Their purpose is indeed a noble one, as they are a resident of the hidden grotto of Trub, a sanctuary for Grotesques. This secret place is buried deep in the wilds, kept far from the Church's eyes and ruthless hunters. Grotesques with coherent minds and capable of movement come together here to try and fashion a sort of life for themselves. In there malformed state, it isn't easy to pretend everything is normal, but to be surrounded by others in similar situations, and in a place of peace and quiet, one can find a happier existence. However, there are plenty out there who would see this makeshift village as a nest of demons, and would like nothing more then to slaughter them all. Nymus is one who ensures this fate does not come to pass.

Though short in stature and lacking the usual appendages of a knight, Nymus is a skilled fighter with what they have. A spear-like beak is good for stabbing, along with a bony crest that can be whipped about. But their real weapon of choice is their keratin blade, which they wield with the grace of a fencer. Their strange tail is used to stab and parry, and their small size lets them strike from odd angles. Though funny enough, Nymus is not one for low blows, as a noble knight always follows the code of combat. No one is really sure why Nymus has taken on this self-imposed oath, as no other Grotesques are bound by such things. Some wonder if it is a part of their past life that has remained in the wretched forging of their corrupted rebirth, or if Nymus is attempting to show the world that the Grotesques are not mindless beasts. If it is the latter, then it may be a wasted effort, as many would not hesitate to reduce this grotto to ash and couldn't care less if an inhabitant or two has "standards." But Nymus is a good fighter, and does well to keep this little community safe, so everyone keeps these thoughts to themselves.

buck in his gay as hell overexpensive pink fuzzy cardigan, perfectly looking the part of eddie’s partner as they try to sublet their beautiful house together. in which buck is not a guest. and he proves this very fact by telling the sublettors all about it. he knows this house better than anyone, just as well as eddie who lives in it full-time. the sound of the plane flying over it, the ins and outs of the drama with the neighbours, the park nearby, the creaky floors, the pros and cons of the kitchen. this is Their House. and buck tries to sell it to these people by talking so earnestly about all the things that endear it to him so much. and no one is budging because no one cares like that as much as he does. so he takes it upon himself to move into it himself. because no one will love that house through the imperfections as much as buck will. and the house is a metaphor for eddie. because of course it is

I WANT. secret royalty.

King!Philza pretending that he’s just a random civilian so he can wander in his own streets without fuss. Prince!Techno trying very hard to keep his cover as a random guard in training bc he wants to be able to have a fair fight without any worry of “hitting the heir too hard”. Prince!Wilbur hiding his identity so he can partake in festivities and celebrate with others instead of being the one who is celebrated.

And tommy- I want him to be the one to be constantly blowing their cover with him shrieking “YOURE THE KING?” down the entirety of the street bc he would listen he just would
