All things “se”: Guide on How to Use It Properly

Se in Spanish is a very popular topic that many people want clarification on and So What I’m going to do it combine all the post I’ve made about the different uses of se and compile it in to one large post by copy and pasting my previous post from years past. I’ll also provide the individual links for each section.

Passive “Se”

Original link to: Passive “Se”

I got a question a few days ago about how to use/better understand the passive se in Spanish but accidentally deleted it.

The first thing you should know about it is that it can be translated a few different ways:

1. You (generalization, no one specifically) do something.

2. To be + past participle

3. One (generally) does something.

4. We do something

5. They (without specifying who “they” is) do something.

(These below are some of the most commonly used ones in Spanish)

Ex.

Se puede comer en las calles - You/one can eat in the street.

Se necesita un pastel para la fiesta - A cake is needed for the party. / We need a cake for the party.

Se habla español en Colombia. - Spanish is spoken in Colombia./They speak Spanish in Colombia.

¿Cómo se dice…? - How do you say…?/ How does one say…?

Whenever you see se puede, translate it as “you can/you are able to” or “one can/one is able to”.

Se habla will almost be translated as “(Language) is spoken”. It’s most commonly used in that form.

Se dice will almost always be “you say”. In other cases, it can be “it is said.

Se busca means to be wanted

Se vende can mean to be "for sale”

NOTE: The passive se also works in the plural form. The singular form is followed by “que” or and infinitive verb like shown in the examples above.

The pluralized form of the passive se is used to STRICTLY show what is being done or and SOMETIMES what “they do” The form where it shows what is being done is the most common translation. Here are some examples:

Ex.

Se comen (las) manzanas por la mañana. - Apples are eaten in the morning.

Se hacen muchas cosas. - Many things are done.

Se compran tornillos en la ferretería. - Screws are bought in the hardware store.

¿Sabes donde se hablan 3 idiomas? - Do you know where they speak 3 languages/Do you know where 3 languages are spoken?

One last part I want to mention is how the passive se is used for accidental occurrences. It’s formed by using the 3rd-person-singular or plural passive se with indirect object pronouns. The indirect object pronoun will determine essentially “who” did the action in English. In Spanish, however", it shows what was done by whom. it’s formation will be (se + I.O. conj. verb with plurality agreement). Here’s some examples:

Se me olvidó el libro en casa. - I forgot the book at home.

Se me olvidaron los libros en casa. - I forgot the books at home.

Se me cae el tenedor. - I drop the fork (accidentally)

Se me caen los tenedores. - I drop the forks (accidentally)

Se me despistó el niño. - I lost sight of the child.

Se me despistaron los niños. - I lost sight of the children.

Se me fue. - I lost it. (in thinking process)

Se me escapa. - It escapes me (a thought or thing)

Just use caution when using the passive se with “escapar” and “ir”. In the cases, it can be translated as “those things did that thing to me.

When trying to figure out which way of translating would be best, just go through the different forms and ask yourself which one makes the most sense. Sometimes a few different ways make sense.

“Se” as an Indirect Object Pronoun

Original Link to: SPANISH: DIRECT AND INDIRECT OBJECT PRONOUNS

So a few days ago, I received an ask a few days ago for tips on remembering direct and indirect object pronouns in Spanish.

For starts, both the indirect obj. pronouns and are the same EXCEPT in the 3rd-person singular and plural (usted/él/ella & ustedes/ellos/ellas). This makes it easier to remember which one to use in each case.

Direct Object Pronouns

me - me te - you lo/la -you formal./it nos - us os - you pl. los/las - you plural/them

My German teacher in high school made was the one who made it clear to me the difference between D.O. and I.O. pronouns since the book definition was too wordy and confusing

For D.O. Pronouns, think of it as WHAT you are doing.

It’s WHAT: -you eat -you do -you smell -you hug -you see -you kiss -you play -etc.

Ex.

Te amo — I love you ( you’re WHAT I love)

Los ves — You see them (they’re WHAT you see)

Lo comen — They eat it (it’s WHAT they eat)

Indirect Object Pronouns

me - me te - you le -you formal./him/her nos - us os - you pl. les - you plural/them

For this, think of it as TO WHAT/FOR WHAT you doing something.

Ex.

Le doy una manzana — I give her an apple (TO WHOM I give the apple)

Nos hacen un favor — they do us a favor (TO/FOR whom they do a favor)

Les escribimos una carta — We write them a letter (TO/FOR whom we write a letter)

NOTE: Whenever you must use both indirect and direct objects in the same sentence with the same conjugated verb (ex. te lo doy — I give it to you), you MUST put it in the order of I.O. + D.O. + conjugated verb).

Be careful when using these because when in conjunction like the example given above, le and les get changed to se

Ex.

Se lo traes — I bring it to him

Se los muestro — I show them to them

Se lo leo — I read it to him

I hope this was able to help you better understand how/when to use them.

“Sé” with an Accent Mark

When we have sé with it an accent mark, it can mean 1 of 2 things:

First person singular conjugation of saber Yo lo sé - I know

The informal singular command of saber ¡Sé tú mismo! - Be yourself!

I Do (Finally)

The proposal I wrote out months ago and forgot to post here >:3c

June 2008.

Aleks had been watching the storting like a hawk for the past few months. A gender-neutral marriage bill was being passed around between the members, and they were considering having it put into effect in the new year should it pass. Sure, there were already protections in place in Norway for same-sex partnerships, but… Marriage was something different. Something Mathias and himself had been longing after for literal centuries.

It was one thing to say this is my partner, my significant other, my love. But it was something else to have the proof in the eyes of the law, in the world, that you were wed.

So, when Aleksander got the heads up that the storting had passed the bill and it would be announced later in the week, he started concocting a plan.

He was going to propose to Mathias as the news was breaking. He was going to get all of their loved ones and go out to dinner altogether. A quick call to the other Nordics, the Low Countries, and their other friends was the first order of business, and then going about the restaurant reservations. KöD Oslo, one of the favorite places that the pair usually reserved for special occasions like anniversaries and birthdays.

The ring was plain and nothing fancy, but the runes engraved on the inside spoke louder than the platinum band would suggest. They were tiny, wrapped around the entirety of the inside of the band itself.

From the dawn of the realms until the end of time, you are my one love, unrivaled. No mortal man nor beast could take you from me.

It would be a lie to say that Aleksander had not had this planned out decades in advance, that he did not set down a deposit on Mathias' engagement ring during the 1950s as the Dane was recovering from his brush with death. They both had been waiting for this for literal centuries, and Aleksander would be damned if he wasn’t almost entirely prepared for this.

The last call he needed to make was to the jeweler, putting down the rest of the money on Mathias’ wedding band, paying the extra charges for it to be started on immediately.

Now, all he had to do was wait, and not say a thing to Mathias.

Such a feat was easier said than done, especially because the both of them had been waiting for this for almost forever, the chance to be fully married in the eyes of everyone; the law, their nations, the world. It was lucky that he was able to control himself when he saw his boyfriend every day for the next week, lucky that he didn’t just drop to one knee as soon as the neurosurgeon had stepped out of his car that evening.

But wait he did, and it was luck that the Norwegian had an endless supply of patience. If he was going to do this, he wanted it to be perfect.

The day was perfect and warm, the arrival of summer in Norway called for extraordinarily long and comfortable days in Oslo. Mathias had the window rolled down, his hand extended out from the car and waving through the air currents as they drove from the house into the city, the both of them dressed up for the occasion. As far as Mathias knew, there was no special occasion, just a get together with friends and loved ones at their favorite place

The ring box was inside of the pocket of Aleks' dress pants, the same pocket where he stowed his keys and wallet so as to not arouse suspicion for him carrying something in his pockets.

"Who all is supposed to be here, Aleks?" Mathias asked, fingers sliding between his partner’s as Aleks’ hand was resting on the center console.

"Mm," Aleks tapped his thumb against the steering wheel for a moment. "Bastian and Christiane, Ludwig, Sigfrid, Sigurd, Mikael, Gunnar, Timo, Emma, Willem, Gemma, Toni, Naia, Arthur, Francis, and I invited Alfred and Matthieu but I’m not sure if they’ll be here.” He said it as if inviting their overseas friends was no big deal, as if collecting so many of their friends at all was nothing more than a casual summer dinner. He failed to mention the Aussie and New Zealander that he’d invited as well, Kyle and Cae. That, surely, would throw up more red flags than inviting the North Americans.

“Quite a gathering,” Mathias replied, “Are we getting an entire section to ourselves, then?”

“It’ll most likely end up that way if they all seat us in one section, anyway.” Aleks did in fact reserve the dining room off of the garden, but that was his little secret. He had requested at least half of them to get there ahead of time, that way the rest would trickle in at a somewhat normal pace once Mathias and himself had arrived.

Aleks pulled the car into a spot outside of the restaurant, leaning over to exchange a small, sweet kiss with his partner before brushing a stray ball of lint from his shirt. “I think my brothers are already here.”

“I have no doubt,” Mathias replied with a slight chuckle, brushing his nose against Aleks’ as he leaned over the center console. “They are nothing if not exceedingly early to everything.”

“You’re telling me,” Aleks says with a laugh, sliding out of the car and rounding to the passenger’s side. “Mikael likes to show up at my office an hour before our meeting and then pester me until I’m ready.” Once Mathias was standing on the curb next to him, Aleks went ahead and locked the car, resting a hand on the small of the Dane’s back and walking with him into the restaurant.

Already waiting for them were the Nordics, of course, taking up one of the central circle tables in the dining room, leaving two seats side-by-side for Aleks and Mathias.

From there, the dining room began to fill with their friends, usually arriving in pairs and with bright, cheery smiles. The room swelled with chatter, a small gathering of nations joined together for only one thing, kept hidden from one Danish doctor.

The chatter gave way to dinner, which did nothing to hush the rabble in the room. They were surrounded by so much happiness, so much joy, and Aleks could not be more grateful that so many of their friends were able to make it, and could pack the dining room for this.

The volume in the room only fell to a hush when Aleks stood up, resting a hand on Mathias’ shoulder.

“I wanted to thank all of you for coming on such short notice,” He started, giving a small smile to the tables surrounding the one the Nordics were all sitting at. “I know I only gave you a week to get here, but the fact that you’ve come means the world to me. To us.” Aleks catches Mathias’ slightly confused expression out of the corner of his eye.

Good.

“The storting has signed into legislation a marriage bill,” Aleks continued, his voice even and careful. “That, come the first of January, will change the definition of marriage in Norway.”

This was it.

“That being said, I have a very important question to ask.” Aleks turned to Mathias, who was staring at the Norwegian with those wide icy blue eyes of his. He took Mathias’ left hand in his, smoothly dropping to one knee before the Dane with a navy blue ring box in the palm of his hand.

“Mathias Nikolas Anker, you have been my steadfast companion for nine hundred and fifteen years. You are unendingly kind, intelligent and I have had the absolute privilege to be the man that is allowed to love you. You have shown me and taught me more than I could ever in my entire life begin to thank you for. You took a blood-soaked and scarred young man and loved him until his edges were not so sharp, and until he learned how to love you in every way you deserve to be loved. We have tested one another, and have been tested in countless ways. There is no one else on this planet that I would rather see every sunrise and sunset with until the end of our time here on Earth. Would you do me the honor of marrying me?”

Nestled in the navy velvet of the box was a gorgeous platinum band, the center of the band bearing a brushed look while the edges were kept reflective. And of course, the inside had the raised runes that Aleks had meticulously chosen.

There were barely a handful of heartbeats between Aleks’ question and Mathias flinging himself into the Norwegian’s chest, Mathias’ arms thrown around his shoulders while he pressed his face into Aleks’ neck. The Dane was sobbing, fingers curling into the short hairs at the back of Aleks’ head and clinging to him as if his life depended on it.

There were a slew of garbled questions interspersed among those heart-wrenching sobs, mostly asking if he was dreaming or if this was really happening. Aleks did his best to answer the questions, resting his head against Mathias’ and rubbing at his back, the ring box still sitting open in his other hand.

Aleks didn’t really need that yes; he took the hysterics as one.

“You’re alright,” Aleks murmured against Mathias’ temple, slowly standing up and letting the ring box snap shut so he could stow it in his pocket once again. Even as they stood, Mathias’ arms remained around Aleks, the Dane standing up on his tippy toes. “C’mon, let’s go outside,” Aleks suggested softly, guiding the inconsolable Dane out of the dining room and onto the patio.

Aleks, with his arms wrapped around Mathias, walked the both of them over to the raised garden planter that took up the center of the patio. He slowly sat down on the edge of it, Mathias sitting in his lap automatically. He didn’t want to be apart from Aleks, even in the slightest at the moment.

With Mathias still roughly sobbing against the Norwegian’s neck, Aleks rubbed slow circles into the Dane’s back. “I found out about a week ago that they were passing it,” he said quietly, head resting atop Matti’s. “It’s been officially signed by Harald as of noon. The official announcement comes tonight. I wanted to ask you the afternoon I found out, but I needed time to get your ring finished and everyone here.”

“Aleksander,” Mathias cried, gripping the Norseman tighter and making Aleks laugh softly as he continued to rub at the Dane’s back. “We can get married…”

“Mathias,” Aleks echoed, rocking his sweetheart slowly and kissing the top of his head. “We can, but only if you say yes.”

Mathias sniffled, lifting his head to look at Aleks and butting their foreheads together. “I haven’t wanted anything more. For as long as I’ve loved you. So yes, of course, I’ll marry you.”

Aleks lifted his hands to Mathias’ face, wiping his tears away before kissing him for just a moment, a bright smile growing on his face. “We’re getting married.”

“Uh-huh,” Mathias mirrored that smile, thumbs rubbing against the side of Aleks’ face. “Can I see my ring?”

Aleks chuckled, stealing another little kiss before digging in his pocket and presenting the ring box once more. He popped the box open, pulling the ring from its confines and taking Mathias’ left hand in his own.

“No, let me look at it,” Mathias insisted softly, taking the gorgeous band from Aleks’ fingers, turning it over in his hands. It was beautiful, the afternoon summer sun catching the polished edges and diffusing from the brushed parts.

That is when the Dane caught sight of the raised runes on the inside, slowly rotating the ring as he read them. What was written there choked him up, looking up at his fiancé with a watery smile. He was getting all choked up again, letting Aleks slide the ring onto his finger before throwing his arms back around the Norwegian and tucking his damp, splotchy face against his neck once again. “I love it,” He warbled, hiccuping through another bout of sobs.”I love you…”

Aleks lost track of time from there, merely continuing to rock his sobbing husband-to-be, letting him cry against his shoulder and his neck. There was nowhere he’d rather be right now, even with a dining room full of their friends and family.

That early evening dinner service bled into warm twilight, and their friends and family slowly joined the pair in the garden, wine glasses and dessert plates in hand. Taking in the pair sitting together, all smiles and gentle affectionate touches, they all knew that of course Mathias had said yes.

“When’s the wedding?” Christiane asked with laughter, passing a glass of dark liquor to the Dane, who took it gratefully with his left hand, now bearing that lovely silvery band. The wedding would not be for a good while. They’d waited so long for this chance, the ceremony would be perfectly intimate, and the reception full to bursting with life. Just as Mathias would want it.

Seasons passed between that teary-eyed proposal and the warm spring day of their ceremony, the new greenery of the trees glistening with dew from the night before. They were witnessing two births on this day, one of the land in spring and one of two lives being officially joined as one after deserving of such a gift for so long.

Of course, things would go smoothly for all who witness it. The same could perhaps not be said for the grooms in question. Anxiety came easily to the Dane, who was pacing his hotel room with shaky hands and a pale face despite all of the efforts from his groomsmen to help him relax. He was naturally high-strung and high energy, and with nothing to focus on besides getting ready, his head was running away with itself.

That was what Aleksander was told when Bastian came to get him, the Norwegian busy fitting his cufflinks into his button-down.

“He won’t settle down.” The Belgian looked rightfully concerned, standing in the doorway, half-dressed with concern etched on his young features. “I’d say I’m surprised, but I’m not,” Aleks said with the barest of knowing smiles. His own groomsmen, his brothers, were all getting ready in their own rooms. There was no need for him to lord over them right now. He had a sinking feeling that he’d have bigger things to help with than fixing Mikael’s tie. “Send him over here, Bastian, if you would.”

With a sharp nod, the young man left the room, leaving Aleks alone with his dress uniform spread out on the end of the bed. He knew Mathias hated the bowties that came with the Naval outfits, but he had wanted them both dressed in them for the occasion. It’ll just give Aleks all the opportunities to fix them when they get crooked and steal little kisses in the process.

“It’s bad luck for you to see me before the wedding,” Came the quietest voice from the doorway a few minutes later, a familiar hand wrapped around the doorframe.

Aleks cast a soft glance in Mathias’ direction, moving to rest a hand over the Dane’s where it gripped the door. “My love, I don’t know if that applies here.” He says this tenderly, twisting his fingers through his husband-to-be’s and coaxing Mathias in from the hallway. “You’re not exactly a bride, and neither am I. That’s the entire point.”

Aleksander’s words make his partner laugh, though it's weak and uneasy as Mathias is brought into the room, the door shutting with a soft click behind him. There was nothing here that they had not seen before; dress uniforms were standard, and they’d seen each other in a plethora of other states than half-dressed. And yet, the anxiety did not listen to reason.

As soon as that door was closed, Mathias was in the Norseman’s arms, head tucked against his chest. This was his safe place, Aleks knew this, and the Norwegian wrapped his arms snugly around his love.

“What’s going on in that head of yours, Matti?” Aleks murmured after a few minutes of silence, the quiet hum of a fan in the background the only noise besides their breathing.

“I’m scared.” It was a lot for Mathias to admit this, and Aleksander knew this. His love was the one to put on big, happy faces to cover up his concerns, to push it away to deal with later, so the plain admission spoke to the depth of his fears.

Though, Aleksander could not fathom why the Dane was so afraid. They’d already done all of the really hard things that couples do, and even more so because of who they are. The taller of the pair was going to ask why when Mathias just supplied the answer outright. “It’s…” He takes a shaky breath, turning to put his cheek against his love’s chest and lifting cerulean eyes to meet navy. “Scary to show just how deeply I love you. It's just been for us for so long. Showing how deep everything for us goes is terrifying.”

Aleks gets it, he does. They had to hide their love for literal ages. It makes sense to be apprehensive about putting all of that on display, though it's not ever been a secret. “Making it official is a lot.” An affirmative hum from the Dane was followed with a soft huff. “We should’ve eloped.”

“There’s still time. I can book us a flight to wherever.”

“No. I'm tired of hiding us. You know how I am.” Mathias finally leans back a bit from Aleksander’s embrace, chin tipped up to gaze up at the man he loved.

Making an affirmative noise in the back of his throat, Aleks just smiles at his beloved. His hands lift to cradle Mathias’ face, gently butting their foreheads together. “Just so you know, I have been proud to love you for every single moment of all nine hundred and sixteen years, and I am just as proud today as I was our very first night together.”

Aleks watched tears flood Mathias’ eyes, and brought his sweetheart into his arms once again, feeling the doctor’s fingers curl into the back of his shirt. “I know you’re very private about your feelings, but no one can take us from one another. Not anymore. Not ever again.”

Those sniffles devolved into little sobs, with Mathias’ arms slung around his partner’s neck in an attempt to get as close as humanly possible to Aleksander, who merely lifted Mathias off of his feet and held him in his arms.

Lucky for Mathias, Aleksander was always prepared. A quick wardrobe change later and the pair were just lounging on the bed, Mathias in one of the Norwegian’s sweaters and a pair of the Dane’s own joggers. They had hours until the ceremony, and Mathias was dozing off in Aleksander’s arms, far calmer than when he’d arrived.

“Wake me up a half-hour before?” He’d groggily murmured against Aleksander’s tear-stained shoulder. Thankfully, he’d also brought backup suits for the both of them. Aleks didn’t think their dress shirts would survive an impromptu nap. “I still need to look handsome for our ceremony.”

“Of course, kjærlighet.” Aleks would not argue that Mathias never looked anything less than, even when the Dane was exhausted out of his mind from work and wearing those awful green scrubs.

He’d loved Mathias in sickness, in health, in life, in death, through good times and bad, and all of what those standard vows would say. He’d love Mathias to the ends of their existences, from the dawn of time until the end of the world.

@gingerreggg whee it still continues

Heads Up- Part 7 (Joseph x Bust!Caesar)

▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪

"You sure this is the right place?" Joseph asked Suzi as they toured the art supplies section of the local shopping center.

"Sure! Loggins and Messina are Professor Lisa's main suppliers of art materials! They also offer them wholesale for cheap prices. We're gonna need it..." she whimpered, eyeing her wallet sadly.

"Professor Lisa?" Joseph asked. "As in...Elizabeth Joestar?"

"Oh, you know her?" Suzi exclaimed.

"She's my mom, I didn't know you were a student of hers..." Joseph sighed, Suzi apparently not having made the connection with the Joestar surname. Having his mother be a renowned professor in the field of visual arts was quite a burden on Joseph. He wasn't especially close to her, and the few memories they had together were of her being strict and of high expectations. She was distant both physically and emotionally, yet the weight of her achievements rested heavily on Joseph's shoulders.

He was glad to have a little apartment to himself once he turned 18. A small place he could call his own, and have a little freedom to express himself.

Though as of the moment, it was no longer a home solely his.

"I wonder how Caesar's doing back home, alone." Joseph whispered to Suzi.

"Oh, relax," she laughed, as she felt the types of clay on exhibit trying to find one matching Caesar's consistency and texture. "I made sure the door's locked and he has stuff to keep occupied, he'll be perfectly safe."

--------

Caesar cautiously thumped his way across the house. It was the first time the clay bust had been left home alone since the day he came to life, and he felt uneasy.

He'd promised Suzi and Joseph he wouldn't cause any more trouble after last night's fiasco. Still, Suzi felt it was better off to be safe than sorry, and spent the early morning Caesar-proofing the house. She removed any platforms low enough for Caesar to jump up on-- she'd measured his highest jumps at five inches-- to keep him from trying to climb up dangerous places, and she'd also put bubble wrap on hard objects such as table legs and sharp corners in case of him bumping into things.

Caesar frowned. He felt he was being infantilized, treated like a baby. He chuckled snarkily to himself in hindsight, given that he was after all only a week old, and whether that would classify him as a baby, even with a grown man's mind and personality.

And besides, as much as he detested admitting it, he knew what Joseph said the previous night was true. He indeed was just a helpless, limbless chunk of clay. He could only bounce his heavy, squishy torso slowly across the floor with much exertion, and hardly anything more. Who knows what could happen if he'd found himself alone outside?

Yet he still felt a sense of yearning for the great forbidden outdoors, as he looked dreamily out the window. He wondered how far he could possibly go. He'd managed to make it to Joseph's lawn last night, and couldn't think how much further he could have gotten if Joseph hadn't caught up with him. Hopping on his neck was slow and hard, sure, but if there was one upside to being made of clay, it was that he never felt tired or sore from moving the way he did, and briefly contemplated if he could have explored a good distance in his new world hadn't it been for Joseph's advantage of legs.

But each little squeak of his varnished torso with each hop reminded him of Joseph's painstaking effort he took the previous evening to repair him. How he'd gone out of his way to make sure Caesar wasn't in pain, and was always in tip-top condition. How he'd shown him genuine friendship even if the artist was silly and exasperating at times. Hell, the very fact that he'd kept Caesar at all instead of disposing of him or destroying him out of fear was already something the stubby clay being was already very grateful for, and he felt that, after all he'd done for him, it was better off not giving poor Joseph any further heartache.

He turned his eyes toward the books and art supplies that Suzi left behind for him on the living room floor. Perhaps there was a better use of his time than getting himself into trouble.

------

"This much for a dollar?" Suzi cheered with glee. "Sure, we'll take it!"

"How much clay do we need?" asked Joseph, lugging several other blocks in a heavy basket. Suzi had insisted on different types of clay closest to the kind that Joseph had made Caesar from, to test which one would suit him the best.

"Not enough to make a whole body, of course!" she giggled. "At least not yet."

"So do we like, start by giving him an arm? Or some pecs?" Joseph giggled mischievously, imagining the possibilities.

"We'll get there bit by bit," Suzi reassured. "Soon he'll be a complete person!"

"I hope so," mumbled Joseph doubtfully. "I hope we complete him in time for me to graduate..." Joseph scratched his head.

"Well, I think we better get going home now." Suzi said, double-checking the supplies to make sure they had all they needed. "I'm sure Caesar's been waiting."

------

"Hey, Cae," Joseph announced as he entered the house. "Sorry we took so long."

There was no familiar greeting thumps this time, however, so Joseph went to the living room to investigate.

And then his jaw dropped.

Caesar, during their absence, was painting.

He'd found Joseph's art box, the same one he'd meddled with on the first morning, and, using one of Suzi's paper sheets on her clipboard as a canvas, was using a watercolor palette. Joseph watched in amazement as Caesar, dexterously gripping the paintbrush in his lips, dipped the brush into the paint, and with a coordinated rotation of his head and a flexing of his mouth, he streaked the brush across the paper, forming a line of color on the sheet.

The painting itself wasn't much: it was little more than an abstract mess of different, haphazard streaks of color looking like a cross between a kindergartener's doodle and a Jackson Pollock painting. But the fact that it was made by someone without limbs and only a few days old was a tremendous achievement in itself, and Joseph couldn't hold back a tear of joy.

Caesar was so preoccupied with stroking the brush, that he scarcely noticed Joseph entering the room until Joseph called his name. Caesar flinched in surprise, dropping the brush as his mouth popped open in shock.

"Joseph! I-I didn't know you were here! I'm sorry," he said apologetically, making a few hops on the floor to turn himself to face Joseph. "I was just bored and wanted something to do, I hope you don't mind."

Joseph gestured to the painting with great amazement. "I didn't know you had such a talent for art!"

Caesar looked up at Joseph and grinned.

"I am art," Caesar said proudly, trying to stand as tall as he could, which was just a bit more than Joseph's knee-height.

"How did you do it?" Joseph asked.

"A lot of patience, a lot of persistence and a lot of bouncing," Caesar replied with a chuckle. Joseph couldn't help but notice, as Caesar smiled, that his nose had flattened slightly and his front teeth were slightly crooked, likely from their unintended use as substitutes for fingers.

"You've done a wonderful job, but I think you overdid yourself," Joseph said, gently lifting up Caesar off the ground. "You need just a little bit of fixing," Joseph said, imagining the struggle of Caesar having to use his nose and teeth to move things around.

It was hard being just a head.

-----

"Okay, this won't hurt a bit," Joseph said, as he gently squeezed Caesar's soft clay nose back into shape.

"Ah, that's better," the bust replied, as he sat once more on his birthplace: Joseph's working table. "I couln't help but squish my nose a bit to push that art box of yours along."

A wide grin crept across Joseph's face.

"Well, the good news is that you won't have to do that anymore!" he said, gesturing to a large block of clay on the opposite end of the table, still wrapped in a thin layer of plastic.

Intrigued, Caesar carefully bounced closer. "What-- what's this? What does this mean?" he asked, perplexed.

Suzi followed into the room with a huge smile, carrying another clay block.

"We're making you a body, Caesar!"

Caesar's eyes grew wide with surprise. "Could...could you really do that?"

Joseph shrugged. "I don't know, but I think it's worth a try!"

"We're gonna experiment a bit on how to pull this off," Suzi said, peeling off the plastic covering of the clay block. "We guessed we'd build on you bit by bit so you gradually get used to having more of a body."

"Gee, I never thought," Caesar said, gratefully. "Let's do this."

-----

The two artists began with a stub of a right arm, all the way up to an elbow. Perching Caesar onto the workbench, they began to outfit him with the stump, using Suzi's anatomy reference guide to scale and sculpt the limb.

"I wished I had that book sooner," Joseph laughed, as he smoothened Caesar's newly attached arm nub. "Then I wouldn't have settled for making only a bust."

Soon the stubby appendage was tacked on, and Joseph began to paint. He stroked and blended with the same amount of dedication he'd given Caesar's head, shaping it as to merge with Caesar's shoulder seamlessly, texturing it perfectly as to look almost like human skin, until at last, painted and sculpted, it looked perfect, like a natural outgrowth of Caesar's rudimentary body.

"Go on," Joseph said encouragingly. "Try to move it."

Caesar strained and struggled to do just that, staring at the new limb intently, with determination, but the elbow-length stub refused to budge. Not even a wiggle or a twitch, no matter how hard Caesar tried, the arm stub remained a motionless deadweight.

Caesar looked at Joseph, clearly worried.

"Jojo...I can't."

Joseph felt a sinking unease. He reached out to touch Caesar's skin. His head and neck felt oddly warm like always, warm like a living person's skin despite being textured, and having a consistency, like clay. But there was a sharp divide where the new arm met his torso-- beyond that line, the clay of the arm felt cold and lifeless to the touch. It felt dead.

"Something's wrong," Joseph said. Suzi came over for a closer look.

Pulling out a pin from a box of supplies, she sharply poked the arm stub. "Feel anything?"

"Nope," Caesar sighed.

"How about this?" she asked, poking a bit higher.

"Still nothing."

Suzi poked the arm higher and higher, but Caesar felt nothing. But after several pokes, she reached the line where the warm, living clay met the useless stump.

"Ouch!" Caesar cried as Suzi jabbed him finally at a spot he could feel.

Suzi shook her head. "Maybe it's because it's incomplete? Should we try finishing a complete arm and hand?"

"I'm not really sure how sentient clay bust anatomy works," sighed Joseph, "but I suppose it's worth a try. After all, Caesar only came alive once I completed his head."

Caesar shuddered at the prospect of coming alive before his head was completed, but sighed in relief that he only did animate once it was.

"Just hold on for a while, alright Cae?" Joseph said in an attempt to reassure the anxious bust. "Hopefully you'll soon have a body."

Joseph sat down and ruffled his brown messy hair in frustration.

This, as it turned out, was a lot more complicated than it had first seemed.

Not Yet Knight ~ 1

“My lady, the horns are blasting!” Scream a young teen boy as he raced into the back rooms of the building. “Someone’s requesting shelter; I think it’s the Kings Own or the Riders.”

“The Riders never announce their approach.” A woman’s voice called out from under a pile of blankets on a tarnished cot. Slowly she made herself visible, moving to straighten her wholly tunic and leggings to look more proper. “Send the reply and take two others to go and bring them in. I will help start the preparations.”

“Yes’am,” grinning he turned to run.

“And Palt,” She called out.

“Yes Lady Cae?” Leaning back in the door way.

“Send back a count of their number as soon as you get there.” Sternly Cae’s crisp amber eyes started intently into face, “First thing when you get there, the total number.”

“Yes’am” Sheepish he answered before running off to do his errands.

Quickly, she grabbed her tall wooden staff and walked towards the main section of the building. The return call telling their guest they were welcome had sent other who lived with in her boundaries into a flurry of activity. Very few of residents were adults; mostly they were children and teens as young as a few months to the age of sixteen. Both boys as girls worked to set up the stables designed to be expanded in case of guests or emergences against the far wall of the fort under the watchful eye of the head groomsmen. The old temple was transformed from classrooms into bunks by the oldest girls while they kept an eye on the infants.

Cook Lynette had some children working hard in the kitchen, filling pots of water to boil, washing dishes, and peeling vegetables. Walking from the main building to the adjacent corridor, Cae admired Roran’s infirmary as he refreshed the spells as those he was training checked the empty beds for any dirt or evidence of old illness. He smiled and nodded to her as she passed by walking into the largest meeting room. The cleaning of this room as a daily chore, the large walnut wood table shone with a faded sheen.

The sound of Palt’s horn drew her from the room to listen. The signal was clear, unmistakable, and sickening to her ears. Taking several deep breathes she readied herself for the flood of excited panic that would be overcoming her people.

“My Lady!” Called Arton, current head of the stables. “Did I really just hear the right? 100 men and royalty?”

“That’s what I heard,” She took another long breathe and looked at the eager young man. “Double out stable length and send Arah to come find me.”

Without replying he ran smiling like a fool to obey. Not much later Arah’s blonde hair could be seen fighting its braid as she ran to Cae.

“You heard the call?” Cae questioned to nodding young woman. “We will need to move the Youngers to the classrooms and make their rooms appropriate for such honored guests.”

“All three rooms?” Arah’s eyes growing large as she tried to process moving 27 youngsters into two small rooms with no help.

“Gather any who can be spared to help you on my order.” Smiling, Cae sent her away.

As the last of the stable was secured into place, Cae heard the call to the walls. Her guards, armed boys and girls, stood at attention waiting for her permission to open the gates to their guests. Chain mail glistened through the trees as they approached. Roran soon stood beside her in his mage robes assuring her that it was indeed their majesties and the Third Company of the King’s Own. Palt rode with them, the image of loyal servant, blowing the request to open the gate. The old gates squealed at the pressure of being opened wide for such a large group as Cae descended the steps from the wall. Within a few moments, King Jonathan of Conte, Queen Thayet, and Lord Raul handed off there mounts to those who was in their charge as walking towards her.

Smiling, Cae knelt on one knee in the mud before them.

Palt spoke, bowing to their majesties, “May I present our leader, Caetry, keeper of Salen.”

“Please stand,” King Jonathan’s voice was a pleasant tenor as he spoke to her. “We are very thankful for your hospitality.”

“We are honored to serve you your majesties.” Keeping her head down as she rose, she looked out of the corner of her vision she could not help but be swayed by their majestic looks alone to like them.

“Buri had told me about this little gem the last time we had come this way,” Thayet smiled curiously at the woman in front of her. “Do you have any students who are ready for the riders?”

“Three who wish to join the riders and four determined to join the King’s Own your highness,” stealing a glance, Cae added shaking her head, “I’m convinced they are just trying to cost me our entire savings so they can accomplish all their visions of grandeur but I will not hold them back.”

“Lady Caetry!” A tall man of bazir descent called out as he rushed towards them. Bowing hastily he swooped her up in a hug before the amused royals. “I have saved up coin so I may adopt one of the next batch! Whom shall I take?”

“Matre,” Raul smiled, surprised at this reserved man’s show of eager affection. “Are you leaving the company? What’s this about adopting?”

“Forgive me my Lord,” This time he bowed properly to them, his bright smile a contrast to his dark skin, “Lady Cae raised me and several others of the Own and Riders. She works hard to make sure those in her care are protected, fed, and trained for many different tasks. Several of us agreed when we were accepted into the Own that we would save money out of what we earn to help pay for those who were to come after us.”

“Excuse, Majesties, but shall we go into the mess hall? Matre I will introduce you to the next batch later.” Curtsying Cae turned sharp eyes towards Matre, which he ignored, before leading the way. “My students will show your men to the stables and rest areas, My Lord Raoul.”

Opening the door she allowed their majesties guest to be greeted by the group of the Kings Own who were already resting within at the long tables. Raul leaned against the door frame near her as she watched them carefully before turning to him, “Something to say my Lord?”

“Buri told me to tell you if she find out you’ve been skipping meals again she’ll beat you,” Grinning as Cae nodded knowingly as he added, “you know you’ll have to answer for that Lady comment don’t you?”

“Don’t worry about me, my Lord,” Grinning over she shoulder at his friendly black eyes. “I have my tale to tell when they ask and if Buri is planning on beating me… well, I may never have to tell it.”

“It isn’t wise to lie to their Majesties,” Concern overcame his features as he watched her playful grin. “Jon is well enough as Kings go but he can tell if you are truly lying to him.

“They will prefer the lie to the truth, my friend. I can promise you that with ease.” Cae’s smile turned sad before she walked away to check on the younger tenants. The Hall of Children was abuzz with life and noise as anyone too young for work played, learned, and listened to stories. To her joy, one of the nine year old girls was practicing bowing and curtsies with the eager group of four and five year olds. If it was any other monarch she would have laughed off there shenanigans as pointless but with these? They had a reputation of loving and showing kindness to children.

Smiling Caetry went and spoke with the older girls, saw the arrangements they had mad for everyone to sleep, and checked what food they had stored up. All but the last task was satisfactory, Cae knew she was going to have to send out some of her older children to work. The fields needed tending but that could wait until sunrise tomorrow.

“My Lady?” Arah called down the corridor, interrupting Caetry’s concentration on the calculations she was working on. To her surprise Arah was holding a limp toddler in her arms. “My Lady, there majesties are requesting a word with you and Torni won’t wake up.”

“Give’er here,” Cae took the small child on her hip knowing she was not used to this many people and so much noise. “Torni, sweet one, you are ok. Wake up now.” Feeling Torni’s back with her hand she realized that she was much too warm. Remembering the fever that had already taken two infants panic crashed over her as she calmly fought to keep the fear out of her voice, “Arah, will you go get Master Roran? Quick as you can?”

The younger woman left through the mess hall at a run. Walking up to the edges of the make shift throne room, worry overcame her features for the child in her arms. Everything about how Torni was behaving was wrong. The almost two year old only twitched in her mothers’ arms as Cae was torn between going to the throne and taking the child to the infirmary herself. Roran was taking far too long and their Majesties had taken notice of her. Keeping an eye on the door, Cae watched as Raul bent to speak quietly with the King and Queen before nodding permission for her silent plea. She ran as fast as she could with the little ones still body.

“Roran!” She bellowed, finding Arah sobbing as she banged against the think, locked door. Caetry was no longer afraid of waking the still child.

“What?” The mage yelled at his leader, his gift radiating around him, clothes drenched in sweat. “I was in the middle of assisting with a surgery! What in the god’s names is so import…ant?” Reaching out his hand, he felt Torni’s head as his anger faded into sorrow.

“She is gone, Roran,” Cae whispered coldly, blue-black power radiating from around her. “I called for you half a bell ago and you did not come and we lost another one.” Gulping she looked up into his overly bright eyes. “We lost mine.”

“Cae, Cae I’m sorry,” reaching to touch her arm her was thrown into the open doorway by her dark gift. Taking deep breaths she forced herself to have control and her power faded. She noticed the healer Roran had been assisting, Sir Nealen or Neal, frowning at the child in her arms. Holding out his arms Roran couldn’t meet her disappointed eyes as he spoke, “I will prepare her for burial… my Lady.”

Cae hesitated looking down at her mini self. Same nearly black hair, amber eyes, and mouth always prepared to smile.

“My Lady,” Arah whispered as tears flood her cheeks. “Their Majesties are still waiting for you and I have to… I have to tell the others about Torni… that the Black God sings her lullabies.”

“I envy him.” Trying on a smile, Cae failed, although she didn’t dare to cry. “I will go before their Majesties and return to kiss her good night.” Without another word she walked all the way to the door of the mess hall. Standing there for a moment she summoned in her mind the person she wanted them to see: calm, respected, in control. Carefully she forced herself to smile and refreshed the image of her clothing for them to see; only those who knew her well would not be fooled by such a weak mask. Pushing through the door several hopeful glances sought her face only for her to look down in avoidance.

“Caetry, are you ready to speak with their majesties or do you need to stay with the little one?” Speaking quietly Raoul hunched down closer to her head as he offered her his hand.

“I am ready to meet with their majesties, My Lord.” Placing a trembling hand on his, she added in a whisper, “The Black God cares for her now as he cares for all those we’ve lost this fall.”

Startled Raul’s brows pulled close together as he led her to curtsy before the monarchs. Speaking loudly he address them, “May I present Caetry, Leader of this Fort and Keeper of Orphans?”

“Trainer of the Queen’s Rider and the King’s Own,” The King replied smiling as if he sat on his golden throne and not a worn out stuffed chair. Handsome as he is, he could make any area appear as a place. “Her Majesty and I thank you, Caetry, for your hospitality.”

“It is an honor to serve you, your Majesties,” She bowed once again, smiling as she fought to acknowledge the queens’ beauty instead of her own sorrow.

“Commander Buri mentioned that if we were to ever come here you would have a request of us,” Words fell easily from the queens ruby lips. “You have showed his Majesty, myself, and many of our people kindness. What would you request of us?”

“Commander Buri is far too kind for thinking of me to you, Majesty,” Smiling, she force away her angry tears, she wanted her daughter back but not even the king could or should do that. Instead she spoke the answer that Buri would have expected from her. “I would be honored if those in my care may assist your people while there are here. Any advice that can be given them before they begin their training for the Riders and the Own would be greatly appreciated by us all.”

“Knight Commander,” The king turned towards Raul speaking in a drowl, royal way. “I would imagine you could assist in seeing this request fulfilled?”

“Of course, your Majesty,” He bowed before tilting his head like an innocent child. “I could meet with those closest to joining the Own? If you have what is required I may be able to take them sooner.”

The tempest of emotions raged inside her as she kept her face calm and kind. He doesn’t know that I lost my child and he is asking to take my others, he has no idea of my pain, I must be in control. “You are all kindness my Lord, we currently have the ability to send two of the four.”

“How long do you think until you’d be able to send the other two?” Baiting her with a grin to match Raul’s the King chimed in.

“After the harvest I will have enough for the third,” Cae’s pleasant façade slipped with her concentration. “If I spoke to Baron Cooper and Lady Alanna, they may be willing to sponsor a student again and allow me to pay them back throughout the year, your Highness.”

“George and Alanna have sponsored your students before?” Surprise was plain on Raul’s handsome face.

“They have only sponsored my Riders so far my Lord, but they may be willing to trade work,” grinning at the knight, Cae turned back to their Majesties. “Excuse me, please, your majesties. Your and my lord’s rooms are prepared if you would care to rest before supper.”

“Thank you, Cae,” Her Majesty gracefully set her hand on her husband’s arm as he went to question her further. Thayet’s lavender gown fluttered like butterflies as she walked up to kiss Cae’s cheek and whispered. “We can finish this discussion later. Is the little one you took out earlier well?”

“She is well in the Black god’s care, highness,” Dropping her mask for just a moment that the queen could see her sadness before pulling in pack into place with a smile. With a curtsy she pulled away and looked down until the twins, Arah and Arton, had led then back towards their chambers.

The men of the Own greeted her with smiles, thanks, and offers to help anywhere needed. Her own people waited huddled away from the new comers, mourning. It wasn’t until Cae had joined them that Matre noticed the crowd and pulled the others who had been raised there to hear the news. She lied to them of course, telling them that she hadn’t realized the severity of the illness and had taken Torni to Roran too late for him to call her back.

Cae allowed them a few minutes of apologies and prayers before she sent her people back to work reminding them that harvest would begin in the morning. The men of the own asked others which tasks to begin. Cae was pulled to the door as Cook pressed a dark crimson rose bud into her hand before she too returned to work. All of those who belonged to Salen help overbright eyes as she nodded each to go back to work. Everyone who saw her put a fist by their heart and bowed, a sign of respect and mourning. ‘Our sorrow for your sorrow,’ they whispered.

Holding the rose carefully in her hand, Cae walked into Roran’s domain. Nodding to the healers and those in training who were working she went into the small morgue where her little girl lay as if she was sleeping peacefully. Someone had followed her into the room but she didn’t turn to look as she brushed through the child’s hair with her fingers. Drops slipped from her eyes as Cae bent down to kiss her forehead. Gently she placed her little arms to hold the rose across her chest like the princess in her favorite stories. A light hand rested on her shoulder, to her surprise, Cae looked up into the face of the Queen of Tortall.

“She looks a lot like you,” Thayet whispered, smiling sadly at the sad young mother. “The black god takes wonderful care of our little ones.”

“The Black god sings her lullabies,” Cae’s sad smile did not deceive the queen but she had to be strong. Desperate to change the subject she looked back to the busy room, “It seems that quite a few of your people are injured.”

“They were a group scouting the area; we came to rescue them from the bandits.” Frowning towards where the injured were cared for, “Thanks to your people, we lost none to the Black god’s mercy.”

a week feels like a very short period of time but we do want to do weekly system check-ins, so let’s do one now. on time for once.

callon is fronting, as has been the usual lately. for a while we thought cilla would become longterm core, but i guess that was just a stress front. overall we’re doing very well right now, but we’re spending a lot of time at work etc acting as a singlet, so it’s been slightly difficult to keep track of everyone. i think that documenting front shifts on our recovery twitter has been helping.

aren arrived this week. or like, stepped out of the shadows, more accurately. he’s been ghosting around for months. he’s dueling venic in the back room of the main house now. i think vaccine won the chess match, so by all means it should be them playing the next game, but they left to set up their own office in azdien’s basement.

vex is still brainstorming about scrapbooking. jace has moved on to contemplating knitting projects. i wonder if we still have our smuppet crochet pattern memorized...

moving into the main room, perien is on the couch with amelia and floret now. i feel really bad for skipping over kyr in our last roll call. we’re commissioning a short fic for kyr, so kye’s a bit emotional about that. amelia still seems very tired, but i think sea’s slowly recovering. we’ll probably have to discuss system roles again soon.

gabbi is bringing over dessert squares and tea for them. floret encourages nir to borrow ethan’s chair and sit with them. cilla and echo are curled up together. echo is sleeping, and cilla is keeping an eye on the nearby conversation.

i think nitexx headed to the treehouse to talk to kayden. upstairs, remm’s room still seems to be in sleep mode. haze is sleeping as well, and seems restful. im knocking at riley’s door.

nessie answers but tells me to hush. i guess riley is sleeping? si’s been somewhat active wrt searching tumblr for other kin though.

raliel doesn’t seem to be around.

heading outside and looking down at the shoreline, rayn is very quiet. maybe it’s asleep a- oh nope, it woke up, it’s excited to see gh0st again soon.

there’s noise coming from the treehouse. the ladder is down, so i climb up. questioning what “i” look like, i start wondering if elster is cofronting with me.

nitexx has somehow converted the tv stand into a makeshift stage. zir and kayden are standing on top of it, singing along to some of kayden’s favorite music. it’s really nice to see zir up and about again, even if it doesn’t feel like ze’s particularly able to front lately, even now. i thought ze had been coming to talk to kayden about his robot life, but i guess they got distracted.

kitt, surprisingly, has shifted back into is human form to heckle them about having shit taste in music. they are completely unphased, it seems to add to the mood if anything. kei is leaning against the back wall fiddling with their knife, but they seem pretty amused. vite is really into it. nero seems less so. tobias has come to check it out, and is standing with nero towards the back of the room. i think nika is on sier way as well. i ask after jody, but i think they’re asleep.

by the time i leave the treehouse, nika is singing a ballad. ethan looks on curiously. trysten is coming up the hatch to watch, but i’m not sure sie intends on participating much.

i head to the mansion. azdien is clearly awake for once, sorting the books in vaer reading room. drohen is helping vaer out. darion let himself out of the room to smoke, but he’s just in the front hall, instead of actually being outside. for shame. no one seems to really mind, though.

asking after kisoquine, i get the sense that xe’s in a place that actually suits xyr, but i have no idea where in headspace that actually is. it’s not in any of the known levels of azdien’s mansion, but it might be in a secret second basement? i get the impression that the entrance is more of a portal than a door. drohen might have helped.

yeah i think it’s like, under the mansion, significantly.

vyrn is in there, too.

phasing up through the floor to the actual basement feels weirdly slimy. vaccine’s study looks very proper.

upstairs, i catch sight of someone in the kitchen. to my surprise, jody is making kraft dinner. they sheepishly say that it’s a midnight snack, despite it being lunch time. it actually does seem to be slightly dark outside though. maybe an 8pm feeling. i guess time passes differently in headspace.

asking after micah, i catch them slithering past my feet towards the front door. i guess they’re interested in the treehouse karaoke party as well, although i suppose they’ll just be watching if they’re unable/unwilling to change back into a human form.

oh i forgot to mention yacinthe. i did get the impression of someone else like actively enjoying the party along with vite, but i couldn’t recognize cer at the time. my apologies.

since elster is cofronting with callon in taking survey of everyone, ze’s not in the library, but their section of it looks as luscious as ever.

we trek to corian’s cabin. corian offers us tea, and makes a backhanded comment about the noise from the treehouse. i think they’re just upset that nika left them alone with nine, who is sleeping. tyto comes upstairs shortly after we enter, apparently intending to console corian before they decide to start oozing slime. eir eyes are still a bit red-edged, but ey seems calm.

kestrel and ailecent aren’t in the basement. they’re actually out on the roof today. kestrel’s wings stretch majestically behind aer. ailecent is also looking majestic and notably non-human. ae seems to really have kinned deep-eyes white dragon, but like, a bird form of it. ae has five wings sprouting from a large halo. and ae has more eyes than fit on aer head, blinking in and out of holographic existence around aer head. ae seems angelic in a very biblical sense, and is, just slightly more than usual, radiating white light. i feel like i can sense xykiel nearby, but cae’s still no more than a glimmer of light, so it’s hard to tell.

skye is in faer less tangible form as well. faer northern lights illuminate the slowly darkening sky. rayn waves up at faer, and fae leans down to kiss its forehead, light dancing across its spots.

i ask after raliel. wav turns out to be out on the cliffs again, watching skye’s light show with a sense of serenity, and maybe a tinge of homesickness.

aloe is hiding inside. ae had a sort of intense experience just after aren showed up, blogging cleancore for an hour while the rest of us tried very hard to let aer front without letting aer connect to our physical setting. we didn’t entirely succeed, but we kept aer from outright having a panic attack. ae is in a glass box on skye’s counter, which we know instinctively is sterilized both chemically and magically. we don’t do more than stick our head into the cabin before leaving again.

gail is prowling nearby. it seems disapproving, but unlikely to act on it.

our connection to ooze ocean is very limited right now, but not in a bad way. void simply doesn’t think we need voids presence, and void is uninterested in the party happening in headspace.

we head back to azdien’s mansion to investigate the new rooms.

Dirk @prettyboypng or mod jas @gbptboys is a pedophile and manipulative

@prettyboypng other URLs he’s used include aroacehawkeye, planet-eater, dyscalculiacdonnie, officialbrobot, ocpdmaxie, bipolardirk, deadglitchkid, circuitsbreaker, swordself, deadmettaton, soulrxsonance, chipotanakni, and shadeslayer

i’ve included specific warnings in front of paragraphs and receipts, but global cws for suicide baiting, emotional abuse, csa, pedophilia, and child porn solicitation.

whether you read this or not, i would strongly recommend blocking and staying far away from dirk if you’re a minor.

uhh, i’ve never made one of these things before. i am writing this post because he’s continually managed to brush his actions off and manipulate how people perceive him so he just seems like a victim of unfortunate friend drama, and with the content of his actual actions, i find this frankly really fucking disturbing and i don’t want other people to be hurt or taken advantage of by him. I’m tired of him escaping accountability.

i’ll split this into two parts. the account concerning csa will be first, and then i’ll be adding mine and other’s experiences with him below.

#child porn cw #pedophilia cw #csa cw this section will address csa and child porn solicitation

so this doesnt come from me, but from a minor who had been friends with dirk for a while and recently began suspecting they’d been sexually abused by him. i’ve been asked to rewrite what they told me in my own words and keep it totally anonymous in the interest of their comfort and safety, so i’ll be replacing any mentions of their name with lark.

lark mentioned that when they first met dirk they admired and idolized him and made that very apparent to him, and also that they dont ever remember being excessively complimented and praised by him like most everyone else was (i describe this happening below), which they believe is evidence of emotional manipulation and not just a coincidence.

lark confided in me that, despite how immediately beforehand dirk would ask lark if they were a minor and they would say yes, he talked to them about intensely personal nsfw subjects, such as masturbation, and his sexual desires. he would also express frustration when lark would mention having a crush on anyone but dirk, even though dirk shouldn’t have any reason to want a minor to be interested in him, even jokingly. he did this after he had turned 18, and while knowing that lark was a minor having literally just asked them himself, as if that absolves him of any fucking responsibility.

lark also recalled another incident where they and a friend (who was an older minor at the time) got onto the subject of drugs, alcohol, and nudes and other sexual pictures while in a conversation with dirk. their friend sent a suggestive picture of themself, and dirk sent one that he’d accidentally taken while taking photos for his nsfw blog (which lark stressed they and their friend ended up having access to, something that dirk brushed off because it was a ‘cool URL’). it eventually culminated in lark feeling pressured to send a suggestive photo of their own, which dirk did nothing to stop beyond reverse-psychological platitudes like “dont feel pressured to just because we’re doing it”. dirk did nothing to tell lark or their friend “hey maybe dont send sexual pictures of your bodies to me, because theres no reason that i would want to encourage that sort of thing as an 18 year old adult man, unless i’m a fucking predator.”

i understand this is a very serious thing to be presenting especially without receipts, but i’m an adult and wouldn’t feel comfortable handling receipts of that nature because it concerns sexual events with a minor, and warning people about dirk while maintaining anonymity is really important to lark.

this section will address emotional manipulation and bullying, specifically concerning me and my wife @gendfleur

i should start by saying that i don’t have many receipts for my own claims about him because i don’t have access to all of his old blogs where some of the worst of the posts were, and i’ve also changed computers so i can’t grab any of our old Skype logs. i’m conscious of how this might make people even more critical of my claims, and so i’ve taken care to remember as much as i can and to be as detailed as possible with the receipts i do have.

some brief background about my friendship with him: we met in september 2014 through a homestuck fictionkin skype group, and were close until june 2015, when i cut off our friendship. rose had been qpps with him since before the network was made, and they broke up in december 2015.

towards the latter half of our friendship he started flipping between showering me in positive attention and then ignoring me cold shoulder, which was kind of a red flag for what was about to happen.

dirk has a habit of giving people excessive praise and admiration often in public tumblr posts, making them feel special and wanted, and then making extreme emotional demands and using passive-aggressive bullying tactics, such as deliberate ignoring and vagueposting, to manipulate his friends into complying with them. he’s done this in private with almost everyone i know who has experience with him, and he’s also done this publicly with his mutuals in the past.

example posts of this from his old blog @circuitsbreaker, plus transcripts:

http://archive.is/qnrRl

[sorry i know you guys don’’t care i'l geta round to replying to the nice replies i got earlier later okay]

http://archive.is/fD6F3

[*keeps refreshign to see if someone wil lsay “no i care!”* *nothing* okay]

http://archive.is/3znpI

[mkay yall will get Up in Arms when i make a joke abt a dairy product but when i have my posts tagged #like/reply if u read# or im asking for help or posting about something thats important to me yall drop off the face of the blogosphere……. alright]

http://archive.is/hqHC5

[nobody cares about me and nobody cares about what i say and nobody cares about things that are important to me and nobody listens to me anyway and nobody cares about me !! haha nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!]

http://archive.is/0ronD

[i really am leaving i was jsut saying gn to rose but js Proof most everonye deosnt actually cae: really big difference on notes on my post saying no one cares and then on all my other posts. yall just dont want me to be Sad well heres a thing u can prevent it by Liking my Posts if you Read them like i have In the Tags now! conveicneit right. whatever]

and because these posts are a little old (the most recent of those was january 27 2015) here’s an example from a more recent blog of his, @soulrxsonance, proving that even half a year later (this was posted august 25 2015) with less frequent guilt-trip posts, he hadn’t actually changed his behaviour

#self harm cw http://archive.is/XECIx

[thanks like, the one personwho said anything to glaceon (note: a system member of his) when she asked for thanks for stopping me from self hamring,thaks everyone else for not,caring,atall,thanks,the intrents abotut o be turned off so bye]

wrt me specifically, i’m schizophrenic and autistic so social interaction is really exhausting. this is something i made very obvious by talking about it casually around him and in tumblr posts that he could see, but despite that he went out of his way to make me feel shitty for not being able to live up to his demands (they were random and hard to discern because he would never be straightforward about it but usually if i failed to be present for his breakdowns, like all his posts, tell him frequently that i loved him, talk to him whenever i had free time, or other exhausting bullshit then he would start the guilt-tripping), and often in a very roundabout way through vagueposting and ignoring me, which he would also get increasingly frustrated at me for not understanding... despite the fact that i’m...... schizo and autistic, so i’m shit at understanding social subtleties and hidden messages in peoples behaviour. i have no doubts that he understood this about me also, and yet he did nothing to de-escalate his behaviour.

one clear example of this that i can remember but can’t find a receipt for is when he was having a meltdown on tumblr and was asking for people to tell him they loved him, but after it was over he confessed it was just because he was trying to get someone specific to say it, who he was afraid didnt like him as a friend anymore. this was really obviously about me, because it was around the end of our friendship when he was already namedropping me when he thought i wasnt online like ‘i dont think cerb cares about me anymore’ (which is relatively innocuous but when aggregated with everything else he did, really goddamn bothered me)

another example i remember is when i came out as a nonbinary lesbian after id’ng as a trans guy for the entirety of my friendship with him up to that point. i came out through a post on my blog and stated that i’d had to contest with internalized trauma and abuse to get to a point where i could admit i was lesbian, and he vagued about this later on, saying roughly ”a lot of my friends who used to be trans dudes have been coming out as nonbinary girls lately and it makes me feel like my boyness might be fake too”. i understand that he’s also trans and so i can imagine the thought process behind making a post like that, but i still found that incredibly insensitive and maybe even borderline misogynistic of him.

being friends with dirk was making me suicidal because of the stress of his manipulation (and at this point, trying to interact with him when i was able seemed to be fruitless because he would usually ignore me anyway). so, one night in june 2015 i sent a very diplomatic message to him saying, in essence, “i love you but this isnt healthy for the both of us, and im sorry if im misreading but i think this is for the best”, and then deleted him and unfollowed him.

this is where i remember things getting really, really scummy and panick-inducing for me, because he started vagueing and namedropping me even more frequently, on his public blog for all his friends and my friends to see. i dont know the real extent of this because it seems he deleted certain posts at some point and i was never interested in checking his blog to see for myself back then, but i had mutual mutuals coming to me for months, telling me that he was running his shit off saying something vicious about me.

an example of this (i know this is kin drama lol, and i want to emphasize that i’m aware dragging petty kin drama into posts like these is usually frowned upon, but what i’m focusing on here is how wildly he blows me just fucking finding a kintype out of proportion and the fact that i only talked about this on my blog after i cut him off, strongly implying that 1) he was stalking my blog 2) he was getting someone else to stalk my blog or 3) someone following me was relaying info about me to him for kicks)

[tfw someone who told you you couldnt be friends with them anymore is now kin of yourere favorite fucking pokemon thats also incredibly personallyyl important to you because it reminds you of good parts of your childhood and of good memories of your family an firneds and its just a really personal thing and now it FUCKGGKKNGNG RIUIIENEND OFOOFOOFREVVVVVVVVVVVEER]

here’s a statement by @comorbird, a good friend of mine who was also mutuals with dirk and had access to his vent blog after i deleted him

#death wish cw #stalking cw

it kind of speaks for itself. this also proves my suspicions that he stalked my blog.

like, i get being upset over losing a friend. i’d understand it if, instead he vented about it in private.

but the fact that i knew he berated me openly, on his public blog for all our friends and mutuals to see, was fucking humiliating, triggered my paranoia very badly, and kept me on edge for months. i’m still appalled that he would do that instead of at the very least keeping it to private conversations, especially since he knew that i’m schizophrenic and that i struggle with paranoid delusions and that sort of shit. and even then, wishing someone who very politely distanced themselves from you was dead and stalking their blog is a ridiculous, extreme reaction to have.

rose was part of our friend group, and shie had been dirk’s qpp since before i knew them both. in the latter half of dirk and i’s friendship, hyr and i became pretty close, at some point even admitting we’d developed crushes on each other. in our talk about this (probably sometime in april or march 2015?) rose told me, roughly in hyr words “i’d totally be down for romantic dating but dirk gets jealous really easily so i’m afraid of broaching the subject with him. maybe sometime in the future though.” eventually rose came to realize that this was evidence that shie felt like dirk was controlling hyr romantic life despite them only being platonic partners, and we said fuck it and started dating in august 2015, after i stopped being friends wtih him just to clarify.

dirk noticed that we stayed close after i cut him off, and he unapologetically guilted rose for being friends with me and then eventually for dating me, bringing up how much he hated me in front of hyr and expecting hyr to go along with it, and getting very frustrated when shie would defend me or shy away from the topic. this had a really negative affect on hyr for a long time, forcing hyr into meltdowns and making hyr suicidal to the point of being institutionalized involuntarily around july or august 2015, and he did nothing to stop himself or tend to hyr hurt feelings. shie felt like shie couldn’t publicly talk about me lest shie would make him upset, while i was genuinely suffering panic attacks whenever i saw him on my dash.

so like i mentioned, rose was institutionalized against hyr will, and as this was happening dirk decided it would be a great time to contact me in an effort to... reconcile for rose’s sake, i guess. i don’t doubt he only decided to do so at that point to escape possible accountability for allowing the situation to boil over like that, and so he could safely make me feel like shit in a situation where i was under tremendous pressure to just smooth things over, especially since he brought in a friend of his to 'mediate’ or whatever (not their fault, i totally blame him for that). for the whole time he just told me how shitty he felt for me to “cut him off so suddenly”, how it “fucked him up”, that “he couldn’t really trust anyone after that” - and when i asked if i could also unload, he refused on the grounds that it would “just make him angry again and ruin his mood”.

rose has also confided in me countless times about the endless emotional demands he made on hyr, and the vicious guilt-tripping he would subject hyr to when shie couldn’t meet them. shie is also very mentally ill and was struggling a lot at this point in hyr life with being homeless and going in and out of inpatient care.

it’s also important to mention that dirk called both rose and i his “dependeds” (a term for people with dpd to refer to specific people they tend to rely on emotionally more than others), and he used that as a tactic to turn us into objects with no needs of our own, and to force us to feel morally responsible for him. this was something he dropped on me with no warning a couple months before i cut things off, and to be forced into that kind of responsibility without even asking me if it was okay made me very uncomfortable. i’m not blaming him for having dpd or saying all people with dpd are like that, but it was just another thing he specifically did.

i do have some receipts for what i described above.

these are some examples of him vagueing about rose on tumblr, which i feel demonstrate some of the guilt-tripping tactics he used, making sure that rose would come back to his blog and see how badly he was doing when shie couldn’t be there.

http://archive.is/yKvpZ (it’s pretty long so i’ll just paste some choice bits)

[because of one of my past close friendships im fucking terrified everyone whos important to me is actually just planning on and thinking about how/if they should abandon me.] [mm fuffkkcinng iim so sfucked up over this honestly it was suppsoed to be ““““““““the best dcisisiong uuwuuwuwu” or sommemthing and its fucking ruining my life i cant thin k and i cant talk to anyone and i cant not talk to anynoen] [and i dont ahve any sort of reason to know or think or beleive that this wont happen because that ther person was thinking about it for fucking weeks and weeks] [fucking weeks and weeks of planning on leaving me and pretending everyhting was fine, of me thinking we were friends! of me trusting that person! of caring! i cant fucking trust anyone and that person doing that literally just prved it]

[i dont even remember how long ago that happened honestly . its just kind of melting into “last month” the same way missioui is just “last year” #adn im fucking reliving it over constantly just like missouri how great! the 'clean break' systme really fucking works doesnt it! really fuc]

#suicide baiting cw for this last paragraph. eventually rose and dirk broke up around december 2015 (idr exactly) and then he blocked hyr unceremoniously, and it was at this point that rose went to his vent blog to unfollow it and saw a post that said, roughly “i hope cerb fucking kills hymself and that rose is devastated about it”. i don’t have a receipt for this because he’s since changed the url of the blog or deleted it altogether. it’s not all that surprising to me anymore anyway, with what i learned from sid telling me that he wished death on me pretty frequently.

that’s the end, i guess. if you have any questions i can try to answer to the best of my ability, i’m doing my best to be honest and transparent about this so i’m happy to clear up any confusion. please block dirk for your own safety, especially if you’re a minor.
