Do You Think Eurydice Spent The Rest Of Her Afterlife Knowing Orpheus Only Looked Back Because He Loved

do you think Eurydice spent the rest of her afterlife knowing Orpheus only looked back because he loved her

do you think that even after she forgot everything else, like she did in Flowers, she still knew that someone loved her so much they’d risk everything for her

do you think Persephone sometimes looks at Eurydice and sees herself. Maybe Hades was the one to grant Eurydice the mercy of knowing that she was loved, even after she forgets her own name.

Maybe it was Orpheus who wrote their song, so that he wouldn’t be the only mortal to have known of Eurydice and how much they loved each other. Maybe that’s why Hadestown paints Orpheus in the way it does, because he can’t help but think of how his distraction pushed Eurydice down that path. And that’s why Hermes sings it, because he thinks that maybe even if the story stays the same, he’s still fulfilling Orpheus’ wish for people to know Eurydice.

I hate this show so much like you don’t even know

and another thing: no child should ever be made fun of for things they love especially by their parents

people will literally (rightfully) criticize bronies for complaining and hating a children’s show and forcing every aspect to change to cater to the adult audience that it was never meant for, then in the same breath whine about monster high no longer being catered to them (an adult)

Dean is...

A deep saturated red with black stripes crisscrossing across it.

A crisp autumn day in a run-down motel in a small town.

The sound of a nail dropping onto a stone floor.

The smell of the forest just after a storm.

The feeling of leather against your skin.

The warmth of a fire while cold wind blows.

The sunlight which passes through the gaps of treetops.

Speaking on Asian Hate

Hi everyone, I made this post today not to post a story. I came on here to speak on something that has been bugging me for months. And that is the 2000% increase in hate crimes targeted towards Asians. These hate crimes range from the disrespect of the elderly to shootings and murder. In the past half a year alone, over 3,800 Anti-Asian incidents have occurred. It hurts my heart to see that racism and xenophobia can lead someone to do such disgusting acts. I myself am not Asian, but I am poc so I know how it feels to be targeted for our culture. It hurts to see the pain and suffering the Asian community is going through due to the xenophobia and racism Covid-19 has instilled within society. These crimes started first towards Chinese people due to the heavily misguided belief that China is the cause of the pandemic. (When it was really America's lack of responsibility and a belief of self-entitlement to not follow government set safety guidelines, but that's a conversation for another day.) But due to misguided racism, this has spread to all Asian ethnic groups. The fact that people decide that they'll blame someone else for their hardships, and then generalize that to a whole race, and then decide to hurt someone due to the fact that you wouldn't fucking wear a mask.

If you listen to Kpop, watch anime, read manga/bl, watch k-dramas, eat Asian cuisine, or buy Asian-made products please speak on this. If you are gonna consume the products of Asia, then speak on the pain their people are going through right now. Even if you canf donate, or volunteer for anything, speaking on it helps just as much. Speak on it, please.

(If there is anyone Asian who sees something that I said wrong, please correct me.)

Sara's Response

I thought I was done, but I'm not I guess.

I couldn't figure out why her response rubbed me the wrong way, and then it hit me.

"People should be paid fairly."

She's talking to us. She's talking to the fans as if we're the greedy corporate boss who won't give her husband the $1 raise at the end of the year.

It's like they forgot THEY are the company. THEY are the CEOs. We're not. If people aren't being paid fairly, that's a company problem. Not a fan problem.

Friendly reminders to cis fanfic writers that afab≠woman

Afab means assigned female at birth so this includes/can include cis women, trans men, transmasc people, nonbinary people, and intersex people.

If you’re making a fic where the reader is a woman, uses she/her, wears feminine clothing, etc. tag it as fem reader instead.

I’ve been smacked in the face as a trans man by reading fics tagged afab thinking it will be gender neutral, but the reader is actually a woman and I’m disappointed because I was ready for a fic I thought would apply to me.

Have fun writing and make sure you’re tagging your fics properly, ty <3

Bo Swan And His Freaky Little Boyfriend

The worms were caused by this specific drawing. I meant for it to be normal fanart but halfway through the idea struck of "what if Bella were actually trans" and then this was birthed.

Made using Krita, with a pencil brush for line art, and chalk brush for that delicious chunky lighting I've grown so fond of. I wanted to try and make this a really easy piece by being a little more cartoonish in my proportions (bigger eyes, fluffy hair, cutesy poses) and it worked really well. While my Ripple AU captain took about a week working on it a little at a time while constantly referencing pictures of Chris Evans, this took only a day. From start to finish it was maybe only five hours?
