Can you make one for vae/vaer please ?

[ID: Five pronoun pins against transparent backgrounds, with large text that reads, "Vae/vaer". The first is a photo of a snowy mountain with the aurora borealis above it, with curved text at the top that says, "My pronouns are", and a white horizontal line down the center. The second is a photo of a blue sky framed with dark tree branches, with white fluffy clouds. The third id a photo from above of waves in rich blue waters. The fourth is a photo of the inside of a crystal geode, with purple and red crystals. The last is a photo of the moon, shining deep orange rather than the usual grey. End ID.]

[pronoun-checks]

Could I please get 2 checks with the name Weli? One with pronouns he/she/they/it and one with any/all pronouns (preferably swapping between them as much as possible)

A great many thanks in advance

Sure thing!

he/she/they/it

Oh hey! Do you see Weli? He’s the one over there by himself with his headphones on. Yep, that’s her. I wonder what she’s listening to, if she’s listening to anything. I hope their day has been going well. You remember Weli, right? I’ve only talked with them a few times, but it seems like a nice person. Does that bag under its chair belong to it? I’m not sure. Maybe that’s his bag. No, his bag isn’t bright blue—that’s not Weli. Look, she’s the one over there. Do you see them now? Yes, that’s Weli. Oh, and it’s leaving without its bag. Is that his bag? We should probably tell her, in case it is their bag. Hey! Weli!

Woah, is that Pigeon? I've heard so many good things about aer! Xe are super cool, and vae should be proud of xemself for all vaer accomplishments.

[androaspec-drivel]

what are your pronouns?

[neechees]

also, as someone who did a deepdive into their alleged ndn blog a few years ago, and unfortunately didn't think to compile any screenshots, tired-fandom-ndn does not, in fact, have any actual direct native blood in them beyond having i believe having a distant grandparent who was native? and i understand some ndn's have their own issues with matter of blood quantum, but seeing how tired-fandom-ndn has self admitted as being raised white with no direct cultural or reservation/band background on top of their only "native ties" being a grandparent... that doesn't make them native, much less permissed, to use the term "ndn", in my view, and i certainly don't believe it means they can be an authority of any kind of the indigenous experience.

it very much seems like they found out about an alleged grandparent their family wasn't close to and decided to claim it entirely as well as make themselves an authority on all things being ndn online

I myself do believe that BQ is colonial BS, but I also agree with your statements here that it seems like someone who just decided to start calling vaemselves "Native" & "NDN" all of a sudden despite living the rest of one's life previously as a White person and then speaking on topics vae had no authority to speak on. Like how would you know about the Indigenous experience & speak on it if you literally just learned about yourself being Native very recently?

[raedas]

she/he swag now. btw :]

[dullahandyke]

Also the bandori fan sat next to me in a lecture today so we talked more yay... need 2 dm her and her friend soon. College fun college cool

[honorary-fool]

let's pretend my first actual piece of writing on here isn't a vent piece and is instead practicing writing genshin Carmen. cool? cool

cw/tw: mentions of alcohol (no flat-out consumption, but mentioned a few times due to setting)

other notes: mostly they/them for oc but also some of their neopronouns are used, in case some find it difficult to read. also no capitalization but there is punctuation if that counts? not beta read. also also fuck you i can use the dodo-communication device if i wanna /lh

there are some things in life that are just unavoidable. things that make people human, or "human" in theory, if only humanoid beings, or completely inhuman at all. emotions are some of those things. 

carmen hated this part of humanity, they always had, even as a wee little elf child. frustration, anxiety, anger, grief- they could never handle it well. that never changed even into a lifespan of a few mere centuries. coping mechanisms only worked for so long, until daze became numb to its effects, and the cycle continued.

those days sucked.

today was, in fact, one of those days.

they quietly stared at the entrance to the Angel's Share, wondering if this was a good idea. 'go,' they pushed themself, 'it'll do you no good to be so isolated. you don't have to talk to anyone, but at least be in an area with other people.'

and so, they went in without another word, grimacing at the jingle of the lil bell that signaled a new patron entered the tavern. thankfully it was a rather busy day, tables and barstools nearly completely taken up by people in varying levels of soberness. no one paid attention to the noise, the ringing too quiet in comparison to the chatter. wringing their hands to temporarily calm the anxiety bubbling in their gut, they approached the bar. a little drink may help...something comforting and warm to combat the emotions in their heart. they somewhat hoped diluc would be manning the bar, finding extra comfort in his presence, but they saw the mop of brunette hair when they entered instead. that's fine, charles is a nice guy.

when they were able to squeeze in and order their drink, they slid a tiny sheet of paper across the countertop with their order, thankful storm planned ahead to write it down in case they either forgot it or weren't up to speaking. carmen patiently waited for their moonlit alley to be finished, glancing around at the patrons filling the tavern this evening. 

it wasn't the most crowded that they've seen, but it was close. a group was playing cards in the corner, nimrod was in his spot downing his barbatos-knows-what-number bottle of beer, or whatever the guy liked to drink. they almost got excited when they saw green, only to frown upon realizing it was someone else- six-fingered josé, if ghost recalled right. their heart ached, the feelings before only growing worse.

it didn't take long for the drink to be finished, and once they gave charles the mora and a thankful smile, they crept upstairs to the second floor. the revelry downstairs seemed a little quieter from up here, and a few more tables were open, thankfully. carmen quickly found their way to a table close to the balcony door, in case they decided later on that fresh air might soothe them a little.

they tried to distract themself with the drink, but kept finding themself glancing up every time the door to the tavern opened, expecting to see the traveler or their own partner.

'i wish i went along too..' they glumly thought, setting their cup down to reach for their pump and give themself the proper amount of insulin. multiple times where they've forgotten, and they didn't want to make themself feel worse. emotions are one thing, but a high blood sugar adding onto the irritability was way worse. once they did so, they resumed sipping at the mug.

the pair went off to sumeru for a little while, last carmen recalled. 'or was it fontaine..?' they thought, using their free hand to feel for the dodo-communication device in their pocket. 

apparently it was from klee's mother, which somehow wound up in venti's hands, and then daze's own with the promise that they'd both use it to keep in touch while he was exploring with lumine. 

and then a month passed, with very little contact.

rationally, they knew it was likely from being too excited with whatever was going on abroad, or perhaps they didn't have the time to talk. they didn't mind at first, but days passed on and it was rather evident to the elf that it hurt more than storm cared to admit. they felt duller and duller as days passed on, and dark circles under their eyes only got worse.

distractions only worked so many times. even trying to think of happy memories made their eyes burn with tears yet unspilled. the more they tried, the more it hurt when they only heard silence in return. the device had limited uses, carmen briefly recalled, which didn't help much in the slightest, making them more cautious in their attempts to reach their partner. 

they tried to drink away the pain with a non-alcoholic drink, but after the second trip downstairs to get another, they couldn't bare to go a third time.

they alternated between slow sips at the extra sweet moonlit alley left in their mug, and letting themself space out as silent tears fell from their cheek and onto the table. carmen remained for most of the evening, cradling their head in their arms and hiding their swollen eyes and quivering lips beneath black fabric and teal hair. they tried to imagine being comforted by their beloved bard, but that only seemed to make things worse.

who knows, maybe he'll be back tomorrow... one can only hope, right?

Venus ref Venus ref!!!!!!

[image id: a digital full body drawing of a humanoid person, seemingly human except for pointed ears, digitigrade legs, and a long thin tail with long hair on the very end. Vae has dark tan skin, brown eyes, and green curly hair pulled into a single braid behind vaer head. Vae is wearing a red shirt with a black and white space association logo on it, and a black jean jacket with various patches on it. Vaer jeans are old and worn, with patches on it and one knee darned up. Venus is standing on one leg, the other kicked up in front of vem, both hands up mockingly as vae sticks vaer tongue out at someone off canvas.

To the left of vem, is text that reads: "Venus Neofolia" and a list underneath reading, "Pronouns: vae/vem", "Source of magic: plantlife and crystals", "Very reckless, willing to do anything for spite", and, "Embroiders and sews, but tends to hide it". End id]

[pronoun-checks]

Hello! Could you do 2 pronoun checks for the name Nikki?

One with vae/vaem/vaer/vaers/vaerself and one with vae/vaem and she/her interchangeably. If you don't do multiple requests, then just the second one is fine.

Sure thing!

vae/vaem

Wait a second, is that Nikki? I think I see Nikki over there! Do you see vaem? Vae’s the one sitting by vaerself with vaer headphones on. I wonder what vae’s listening to? Anyway, you’ve met Nikki before, right? No? Well, you’ll have to meet vaem sometime; I think you’d get along nicely with vaem. I’ve only spoken with vaem once or twice, but vae seems pretty neat. Vae didn’t say much about vaerself, though. Oh, hey! Nikki’s looking this way now! I think vae’s waving at us? Yeah, vae’s definitely waving at us. Do you want to go meet vaem? Sure, let’s go say hi to Nikki! Hey! Nikki!
