Having more Yang and Ruby content is good and all, but honestly at this point it feels like putting a band-aid in a bullet wound. In the entirity of volume 9 they made Yang look like she doesn't give a fuck and she neglected Ruby when she was at her worst mentally. That single volume ON IT'S OWN left a terrible impression on Yang for me. And she used to be my favorite character so that is saying something.
I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they made this new rwby beyond episode just to say "See??? Yang CLEARLY cares about Ruby guys! She always did!!"

If I had a nickel for every time a Bridgerton brother was called out by his future wife at a Danbury ball, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's still weird it happened twice.

I just realized I have a thing about couples having tragic and unhinged Greek/Roman myths as references
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And even Corintheus is perfect with Pygmalion and Galatea story and numbers of fanfic that speak for itself

If I have a nickel for every time Greek/Roman myths were dropped as references for my OTP I'd have two (even three) nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice

If I had a nickel for every time I watched a surprisingly effective horror movie with substantive meta-commentary on important social issues, where the movie was about murderous hair extensions, I'd have two nickels which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.

that has a supporting character with dwarfism, and he's really close with his older brother, who is pretty tall. would it be weird if i sometimes had the younger ask his older brother pick him up so he can reach things? its supposed to be a cute little quirk of theirs that shows their bond, but i'm worried it might come off as weird for some reason. also, do you guys could give me a couple more tips on writing a character with dwarfism, if you have any? thanks in advance! (2/2)
Hi! the guy who asked about less talkative autistic characters here. sorry about that! i was going for more of like... don't talk to a point where it wouldn't be considered "socially acceptable?" but i had a character limit so i couldn't really get my point across that well. now that i think about it, that would probably also be lumped into just, yknow, not being talkative too. anyways, i have another unrelated question! probably equally silly but w/e. i'm writing a slice-of-life story (1/2)
Hello lovely asker!
I just wanna say that because of the ask backlog and the rotation of mods I'm afraid I don't know what ask your talking about, but I'm sure it was simply just a question that was in good faith of curiosity which is what this blog is for 😊
And to answer your question, I'm curious with how old the younger brother is. I haven't been picked up since I was probably about five to help me reach something and even then I was getting yelled at for climbing counters and such. If the younger brother isn't a very young child I would avoid this.
Being picked up is a general no. if you wouldn't do it to anyone else don't do it to someone with dwarfism or any person with a disability. Unless it's under their explicit permission, or help with transferring (from say a mobility aid to a bed or another place etc) or life or death situation, it's almost always a no.
Instead using things like the broom handle to hit tall switches or they even have these things called a "Reacher Grabber" that makes grabbing high up things super easy. Stool also are a big help, the small collapsible ones are easy to carry and move, and certain placed handles help too. Tall people are an advantage I will say though. Having the older brother bring something down to the younger brother is fine. Also have the younger brother climb things and stack objects and use the environment around him so he can get what he wants. I assure you this is what most of us do a lot.
A few more writing tips I have would be:
Research different types of dwarfism and find out which one you want your character to have and how this will affect him. It doesn't have to be mentioned at all but you knowing what type will give you much more insight into building this character.
Don't be afraid to give them mobility aids. A lot of people with Dwarfism have them and use them because they help us and they're pretty common in the community. (Do plenty of research there too if they do have one!)
A joke once or twice, especially if the two characters are very very close, about his dwarfism is okay! Me and my friends joke about mine all the time but quantity control along with a joke in good taste and timing is very important.
The character getting frustrated with his disability is okay too! It happens to me a lot but usually I'll find a solution right after to the thing that frustrated me and that frustration is gone as quick as it came.
If he's having a long conversation or an eye-to-eye conversation with someone that's tall, have them sit down somewhere, get to eye-level (I wouldn't have them lean over to his height though). It really does start to hurt your neck and head after looking up at everyone for so long.
And lastly, I certainly use my height to my advantage in multiple different scenarios. Small hands and small containers or spaces are very compatible with one another. And even though I have to shop in the small teens or kids section for clothes or shoes, I will say certain things are made better for kids (for some reason). But I also know how to hem my own clothes and how to fix them! A lot of people with dwarfism make or modify their own clothes. I can't tell you the amount of times I've gotten discounts at buffets and restaurants because people just assume I'm a child and I'm not gonna protest the discount either so. There are many fun aspects to having dwarfism, I have more fun with it and get more laughs and community out of it than frustration or anything else.
I know there's many more little things that I'm forgetting right now but the dwarfism community could probably add a few things too. Good luck writing!

If I had a nickel for every time my favorite character from a children's fantasy show was related to one of the main villains (who betrayed their trust and killed a lot of people), is the most recent version/incarnation of said villain's brother, is a teleportation magic user, is blonde, has weird eyes that change color, is emotionally scarred, and is in love with a powerful, beautiful, and awesome plant lady, I would have two nickels.
