bonus:

I've always wondered why Aroace peeps feel excluded, when there's lots of cool friendships in media out there. But the more I interact with people across communities, I realize why they feel excluded, especially among their own LGBT peers. Two male characters are really good friends? They must be gay and kissing and doing naughty things! Two women spending time together? Must be lesbians! Two or more characters of any gender getting along just fine? Nope, must be all dating!

Like, I understand shipping characters is fun, I myself do it from time to time, but exploring characters' friendships I find much more appealing cause there's a charm to friendships that I believe romantic relationships ain't got. We gotta learn to appreciate the friends we have, for their unconditional platonic love is as strong as any romantic love, if not stronger.

That's why I will propose to myself a slight challenge: Aroaceptember. Sadly, I can't promise I will be able to draw something daily under this theme because I still gotta work to survive, but I'll try my best to, and in the days I can't, I can talk about my favorite friendship dynamics I've seen in media I've partaken in, or share fanfics/fanart of friendships that I've liked.

If you're interested in that, feel free to stick around, and if you wanna do it yourself, please, by all means. We gotta let our aroace folk know that they're also appreciated.

reblogging so I hopefully don't forget about this ahaha

By the logic of the Riordanverse, Taylor Swift is probably a demigod. While Apollo seems the obvious godly parent for her (music), I headcanon she's actually a daughter of Nemesis who also happens to be a musician. I'm not actually much of a swiftie, but my sister is, and going off of the songs I know, she seems big on revenge. Vigilante, Karma, and all the songs about her exes and ex-friends and assorted people she's mad at.

This way, she and Apollo are actually exes. Not sure which song(s) would be about her relationship with Apollo, maybe "I Knew You Were Trouble"? Or maybe he's her only ex she hasn't released a song about - Apollo being the god of music, maybe he could've stopped her somehow, or put some sort of curse on the song?

Anyway yeah, Taylor Swift is the daugher of Nemesis and ex of Apollo.

Welcome to the KIDLIT QUEEN COMPETITION!

inspired by greats like @best-childhood-book and @best-kids-media-adult, this tourney pits the literary heroines of our childhood against each other in an all out brawl, searching for the greatest girlboss in the genre. Rounds will last one week, and submissions open TODAY! Submit HERE!

RULES:

YA doesn't count as kidlit- characters should be from anything middle grade or below. This includes picture books!

Girls only! trans girls allowed/terfs explode ect, you know the drill.

Comic books/graphic novels allowed, but still should be kidlit! For example, a character from Hildafolk would be allowed, but a character from the Sandman wouldn't.

Side and minor characters allowed

Characters don't have to be human but they do have to have to be girls. Sometimes a girl is also a computer or a train or an alien or something, and that's cool too!

No harry potter characters.

Bracket will be capped at either 32 or 64 characters depending on submission numbers, and then be determined by popularity.

Maximum 2-3 characters per series/fandom/author. If I get more I'll run qualifiers, because I know some have basically infinite characters- looking at you, Warrior Cats & Rainbow Magic.

things that were books first will be favoured over novelisations of movies, games, ect.

Everybody have fun!

This blog used to be fictional-train-fight (masterpost to be updated) and science-lesbian-swag-showdown (masterpost to be added). If you're looking for those posts, check their links!

I have one mod bias entry this time:

Ultimately, prior to first ones stealing Etheria's magic, previous She-Ras were Etherian.

So, imagine any other humanoid species being She-Ra.

What if it was like Avatar and "the chosen one" rotates species to be the She-Ra?

And while I like to imagine the sexy brightmoon minotaur lady as she-ra (shut up), imagine like mushroom erlandia she-ra
