I've been thinking about modesty from a specifically trans lense lately. I was taught that modesty indicates shame, that modesty means you're simultaneously ashamed of being human and having a human body, but also that you are "purer" because you adhere to a hegemonic idea of modesty. Frankly, I just don't agree with this, and it was very much steeped in the idea of specifically christian ideas of modesty.
Before I transitioned, I felt very unprotective of my body because it never felt like mine to begin with. I didn't really care what happened to it, and while I was modest by other people's standards, I certainly didn't feel it. Once I actually started transitioning (and especially on testosterone), I've found that I'm so much more "modest" because I've become protective of my body. There's this stereotype that trans people start "showing themselves off" after transitioning, but I honestly feel the opposite. I'm possessive over my body and exactly how it acts and appears because I actually like my body, and it finally feels like mine. I'm honestly kind of selfish about it, and I think I've earned the right to be.
I made this post because I think this is an interesting topic, and I think it's interesting the ways in which we internalize the influences that be. It's also a reminder that no matter how you feel about things like modesty, you should adhere to what makes the most sense to you and what you are most comfortable with. There are pressures to be modest in this way or that way, but what truly matters is what you decide with your body and yourself.

You can't take my past, You can't take my history
You can't take my charm, You can't take my humor
Thinking you're in control,
Thinking you'll change me, maybe rearrange me
Think again, if that's your goal
Cause you can't take my sass,
And you can kiss my ass
Nothing you can take from me was ever worth keeping.

i'm not really on here anymore, or any virtual platform for that matter. The past few months have been tumultous and I have changed, fundamentally, intensely, a deliberate effort to rebuild and reshape the clay of the earth.
I've reached a greater level of mathematical maturity through ego reduction, I've found an undocumented life to be better, for me. Above all, I've decided the self is a network, it's always moving. Who I am cannot be reduced, it cannot be simplified, it is what I do and what I do is all encompasing and ever changing.

Every description about Nico (especially the canon ones) describing him as “cold” can personally fight me. Nico is jaded, yes, and often closed-off and sometimes stand-offish and defensive but he is not "cold”. He cares SO SO SO MUCH about EVERYONE. He loves and cares with his entire heart constantly and that is a core part of his character. He doesn’t often make public shows of his affection but he takes care to be kind when it matters and doesn’t hide that he does care (usually, the only exception really being him being in the closet, but even then he only hid his crush specifically and not the fact that Percy is important to him). He fine with hugging his friends in front of a crowd and will sit with strangers at a campfire just so they’re not alone. I mean, heck, he’s an extrovert! We know this! He actively seeks out people and gets lonely very quickly and easily! If he can’t talk to living people he will chat with the dead! That’s how much he thrives on being social!
The only time Nico has ever been actively “cold” was the couple of months between TTC and BoTL when he was actively mourning Bianca. Nico is not “cold.” He loves so much and he does show it, just in his own way.

"Not every window is a door, but most doors have windows."
"Don't tap on the glass. You might not like what happens next."
this is Kris the Kriptid, an AU Kris Dreemurr that may or may not be trying to inspire their own creepypasta. they think they're the scariest glitch entity to ever appear on a player's screen-- but they also think that accidentally setting off the smoke detector by burning toast when they were 10 qualifies them as an arsonist, so take that with a grain of salt. don't be fooled; they are still Kris under all that edge.
here they're singing the refrain from Cabinet Man by Lemon Demon for some funky composition practice; it just felt right for this menace and may or may not hint a LITTLE at what sort of wacky game-breaking nonsense I've got up my sleeve with Jailbroken, shhh

She wails as though a part of her has died.

How would Dabi react to reader coming home after a bad day and they’re in a sour mood?
dabi x fem!reader
he would first of all ask you what happened for you to be in such a mood, listening carefully to you rant about what made you so upset that your body was trembling and then mutter a low: “that must’ve been rough.” to which you simply nod sighing, then he nudges at your arm with his elbow to make you turn toward him. “i think you did amazing though and knowing you i’m sure you’ll make it.”, when you ask him how is he so sure dabi looks you straight in the eyes and replies “because i believe in you.”, which takes you by surprise, but he was confident in his words because he more than anyone else knew how hard and painful it can be to try reach your goals when no one believes in you and that you can do it. seeing you like that had brought a forgotten pain into his chest, even though he didn’t let it show, so... he wanted to tell, you the only person that now believes in him, that he too believes in you and your capabilities.
when he saw your eyes light up and shoulders relax, his lips curled in a relieved smile that he covered right away with a fake cough when your eyes darted up to him, but you had caught it and smiled thankfully at your boyfriend.
few seconds of comfortable silence passed until he didn’t turn to you completely serious. “want me to burn somethin’ for you? maybe you’ll feel better.” “dabi... no...”

So you mentioned you don’t like regulily, does that apply to the jegulily ship? Or does having James in the mix just make everything perfect again
,,,,,,, james being in the mix does not make everything perfect again. no. i also am not a fan of jegulily . so.
the vibe of regulus and lily just kinda being cruel to james in the name of being 'cool' doesn't sit right w me. james can kinda be turned into a doormat ,,,, following regulus and lily around like a dog ,,, which if that's ur thing go for it.
but for me. regulus is a LOSER. he's a little PATHETIC and STRANGE. and u lose that a little bit sometimes in a jegulily dynamic and also. there's a very fine line between being defensive and protective and a little grumpy and then just being flat-out mean and cruel. and that line is verrrrry thin in jegulily dynamics w james being on the receiving end of the meanness. more often than not. so . not my thing.
ship ask game!
