Your personal Tumblr journey starts here
Hey y’all here’s something I drew for my queer studies class last semester 🏳️⚧️
I wasn’t able to put too much time into it but I’m pretty proud of how it turned out, especially the mycelium rib cage 🩻🍄🟫
Happy pride! 💚
It’s rebranding time! Used to be sparrow-rose-flying, now I’m planetary-sparrow
Drew myself this fun new profile picture (which I’m very proud of!) featuring my three main pride flags and, of course, a sparrow
I finally finished my Party Poison drawing! I love this character, and I think it’s awesome how a lot of people headcanon them as nonbinary 💜
I experimented a lot with the shading and with blending colors, and I’m really proud of how this turned out!
Happy pride guys WOOOOO!!!!!!
I would totally do more characters bc this is definitely not all the characters that I have that are in the LGBTQ+ but that would’ve taken way too long lol.
Tropical Storm is a lesbian who is dating the pansexual Queen Calamity, their relationship is totally the GuardxQueen trope bc that’s one of my favorite tropes.
I’ve explained Taipan and Neptune before so I don’t think I need to again lol. But, Taipan is Bi, like me, and Neptune is gay.
Moth is based on a dead moth I had seen in my math class one year lol which is kinda sad but it’s ok bc I am recognizing that moth with moth. Moth is aroace and nonbinary, they live in Pantala and they’re a writer.
The other aroace dragon I have is the queen of the icewings, Evergreen. She takes over for her mother at a young age, as her mother was killed in battle, and has been running the kingdom pretty damn well for her age.
Chalcedony is demisexual, she is Neptune’s mother and Evergreen’s personal guard. Chalcedony was the previous queens guard as well and regrets not being able to save the late queen and leaving her children without a mother. She tries everyday to make up for it.
Queen Moi is the spouse of the current seawing queen, she is trans and bisexual. I created her back in Mermay for the prompt royalty and named her after the moi fish, the species means “fish of kings” so I did a little spin on it.
Anyway, hope you enjoyed the drawings and have a wonderful pride month!
#I'm doing my part.
Reblog if trans men are REAL, VALID AND HANDSOME MEN, NO MATTER HOW THEY CHOOSE TO PASS
Reblog if trans women are REAL, VALID, AND BEAUTIFUL WOMEN, NO MATTER HOW THEY CHOOSE TO PASS
And finally, because it's a part of my argument for this point, and also because they are,
Reblog if nonbinary and genderqueer people in general, are REAL, VALID, AND GORGEOUS PEOPLE, NO MATTER HOW THEY PASS
Wowzers those are my pronouns!
NAME THEM PLEASE
This character is a part of a character design challenge that I got the idea for from an episode of Drawfee (love drawfee sm eheheehe) where they generated a description for a character using THIS WEBSITE and they each made a character based off the same description. What I'm doing here is completely ignoring the usage of a single description, and instead I used 3 different descriptions to each make a different character with
Here is the description I used for this character, I had a pretty good idea of what I wanted to do as I was reading it, right up until the "long unkempt mutton chops". Those really through me for a loop. I omitted quite a few details, some on purpose and some by accident (I straight up did not see the 5'5" height, I just read "tall" and rolled with it) Here are some little facts and details about them:
They (and their species) currently don't have a name, and I want you all to help with that :D preferably something ethereal sounding or space related
They are androgynous and use they/them pronouns
They have a bit of an ego due to rising up the ranks so fast
They are 100% not the main character, no matter how much they think they are
They are 8'6" tall
Their species speaks in the voices of all their past ancestors, making them sound sometimes male and sometimes female
The crescent symbol thing in the background is the mark that they have across their back, I just didn't wanna do a turnaround
The color of their eyes represents their rank in society (Lowest rank = red, highest rank = purple
The color of their flames represent how close they are to reaching the next rank
Their spear is a placeholder because I didn't want to do complicated weapon design in a character design challenge
The flames on the sides of their face were meant to be the "long unkempt mutton chops"
I forgot to include the pointed nose so I thought that maybe they have a helmet to go with the rest of their armor that has a pointed nose
They have zygodactyl feet, which goes weirdly well with the pointed nose idea. I did not mean to make this character as bird-coded as I did but I'm not unhappy with it
Drew a NiLU (and Tom) sketch page for a commission :3 Had a lot of fun with this one!
POV: The current state of Hetalia
Mine is dark, and its eyes are rainbow.
When people think I'm a man they treat me better than when people think I'm a woman.
It brings me back to that one time I was on this school show, acting as an old, male historical figure. I welcomed the incoming kids from other schools and taught them this one little song. We all had a good time. But some of them (mainly the adults) kept asking me: are you a boy? Or are you a girl??
Like, the hell should they care?
I had short hair, kinda deep voice, just a teen, but my voice was high enough and my face feminine enough that it made them doubt.
And does that even matter?
Yes, it does. Because when I tell people I'm technically male, they bite their tongues and don't say nasty shit.
And while being nonbinary myself (and I can't care less about what other people think of my gender), I can't help thinking:
What horrible world for my sister to grow up.
I wish we can all make it a better place for women, one day.
Reblog if your blog is a safe space for these identities: agender, demiboy, demigirl, genderfluid, non-binary, and transgender!
I actually pressed cis male but I’m female
Idk if it's like this for other queer millennials who weren't able to come out until they were in their 30s, but I constantly feel like the way I express my queerness has to get some kind of approval from a nebulous cosmic judge.
NEW OC YAYYY!! Also I finally bought clip studio for my tablet 😈
I still need to give them a name and stuff 😭
Yes please I’ll have a sprinkle more of confusion on my gender pasta
And what if my euphoria comes from people saying I’m “unreal” and/or “bro you’re literally an alien” playfully in the midst of my silly moments
A work in progress profile! This profile is one of the many I will make for my aus but it’s still a work in progress. His name is X and he comes from XYZ!Tale. He has a twin brother who is also a sans and his father is still around unfortunately he has no clothes because I couldn’t think of anything. I’m bad at drawing so don’t mind the fact it looks bad. BIG NOTE: I got my friend to draw him some clothes so I now have an official version next up his brother and his lover.

(Accidental) aesthetic inspiration: When making Miss Fortune in Baldur’s Gate 3, the options limited me from perfectly matching the image in my head so I went for something as close as possible to my idea of a beautiful masculine-leaning person. It wasn’t until I showed my spouse and bff that they both pointed out I’d basically made half-elf Chris Motionless from Motionless in White. Oops? 😅
Backstory: Miss Fortune is one my favorite DnD characters I’ve ever played. They were a smart, sassy, and chaotic spy master who had a hand in every secret, scandal, and plot. They were the life of every party, their melodic laughter filling whatever room they were in. As a drag queen they trampled over gender norms and played a pivotal role in helping me realize that I am also non-binary - so Miss Fortune will always occupy a special place in my heart 💛🤍💜🖤. So of COURSE when I was making my first bg3 character I had to make them!
The Baldur’s Gate 3/fanfic version of Miss Fortune starts out significantly more traumatized. They grew up as a pretty bird in a bird cage with clipped wings until finally leaving their old life behind two moons (months) before getting abducted by mind flayers. “The Embrace of Love and Death” will reveal more specifics about their backstory as they get to know and trust Astarion. The parallels in Miss Fortune and Astarion’s backstories are completely coincidental! I knew nothing about Astarion going into the game, and when I created Miss Fortune I 💯 intended to romance everyone’s favorite muscle mama, Karlach. But Astarion landed a crit sneak attack on Miss Fortune’s (and my) heart and the rest was history.
Follow along with Miss Fortune’s story and healing journey with Astarion on AO3:

This- this is SO true

transcript:
A person with a somewhat masculine voice says in a higher pitched tone, “Blue hair is weird!” They then change their voice to their regular tone, and say, “I’m gonna teach you this how I would teach a child. I don’t know your life story, but for the sake of making this an educational video, I’m gonna use stereotypes, so only take what resonates with you.
One child is born in a seemingly functional, to their awareness, loving family, while the other is getting quite the opposite. You can’t choose that you’re born with it, so you’re put out in this world and the majority of your peers are like you, and the majority of your teachers, parents and authority are like you, and the majority of the media out there is showing people like you. So all of the kids that are not depicted by this media feel erased and different immediately from the time they’re born, how they are born. You may feel too feminine as a boy, too masculine as a girl, like you’re in the wrong body, like you don’t think exactly neurotypically as everyone else, you’re too thin, you’re too thick, you’re too dark, you’re not dark enough. Kids like this immediately understand the struggle of not being accepted by the majority, and if it’s not the peers doing it, keep in mind they have the same authority and media only depicting the majority of one type of person.
So both the outcasts and the masses are gonna ask the same question of how do I fit into society, and the majority of the authority and media is gonna be saying things like “God is the answer,” “man marries woman,” “girls are this way, boys this way.” You have a set amount of rules that if you have no reason to question, you’re not gonna disagree with. But when this world has taught you it’s not for people like you, you’re gonna ask, “why is it that way?” which brings us to, “who is teaching us this?” Oh, people from this era or earlier, who’s making this stuff, people in this era or earlier, “Let me do my research on who taught them that stuff.”
A common flaw with human beings is that they accept societal norms that are only in place for a little bit over their lifetime because they never lived to see a reason to question it. When you are born in a world that’s seemingly against you, you have reason to research why these traditions are in place, and you say, “Wow, if I happened to be born in the 1900s, pink was for boys and blue was for girls, and cheerleading is for boys and heels are for men, and the bible was changed to be anti-gay”. It’s almost like what we are taught is unreliable and not inherently factual, and in the time this was being taught, no one in the masses was disagreeing.
Everyone’s born in a box, but we weren’t all born with default settings, so we learned that humans can express themselves however they want. The way you think that only natural hair colors is normal, or how you dress is the right way, or blue hair automatically makes you weird, or pronouns equals liberal, that is taught to you. If this existed in the 1900s, this would be awesome [he points at blue hair], and this would just be english language [he points at pronouns]. When you’re wildly accepted by the masses, I see why you wouldn’t want to step down, you’re at the top of the pyramid. But the reason that we dye our hair blue is that the only people that wildly accepted us are other people who weren’t afraid of being different.
Now listen, maybe you just like authentically being a part of the masses, maybe your true self likes this stuff, that’s fine. But you also have to acknowledge that you were taught to avoid anything that would get you bullied or a negative reaction by the masses. So therefore, who’s really the top of the pyramid? [He flips the pyramid drawing upside-down].”
