Cosmicvesil
[IMG ID: A blacked out flag with only a circle in the middle visible, in the circle there are 7 stripes of varying shades of blue and the big dipper constelation. over top and in the center is the Vesility symbol, an 8 pointed star with alternating long and shot points /ID END]
(first time trying to write an id, if anyone has suggestions on how to improve let me know/gen)
A combination of the terms Cosmicgender and Vesility. For when an aspect of yourself effects other aspects of yourself (gender, orientation, alterhumanity, etc), and is so vast and complex that one is only able to process a small bit of it at a time. Like looking at the night sky through a telescope.
I coined this for myself but anyone is free to use it! credit is appreciated but not required.
I am also thinking about coining a term specifically for the sub identities that are linked to ones cosmicgender/cosmicvesility, let me know if you would be interested in that!

arthur knows there is something to be said of the way a man wears his scars.
his father wears his, an angry silver cord right above his eyebrow, with defiant pride. time and time again, he has seen a visiting noble alight their gaze on the mar, and his father's bellicose stare in return, a silent war between them. i have survived this, the king would say without words. i will survive you.
on his father's men, a constellation of pink, raised flesh-- a rope of gnarled skin on sir bedivere's left arm from the slice of a blade; a thick, white tear in the fabric of ector's neck. when arthur's young, he sits by fires and listens to the tales of bandits, beasts, and brethren who leave the marks on the warriors who arthur loves.
and, in time, they come to arthur. a snaking vine on arthur's right hip. a thin slice along his left bicep. none of them grow angry and purple the way he's seen after the battle dust settles. he's lucky, in that regard, that all his settle into the skin like they belong there. a man who wears his scars not without pride, but whose scars wear him with the same reverence.
his new knights collect them with the same wonder arthur first collected his. a memory of a battle well fought. a time where death reached out its hand and missed. i have survived this. i will survive you.
but they never come to merlin.
at first, when he's young and naive to all the things merlin has done for him, it stands to reason that merlin is never scarred. he doesn't do anything. later, when the truth outs, arthur knows that was as foolish a thought as trusting his father blindly.
merlin fights alongside him, now, in their older years. he watches as blade lunges, as arrow pierces, as spear aims-- and yet, merlin walks away from battle without a scratch. surely, arthur thinks, merlin has just been lucky. maybe his scars are like arthur's-- not quite as visible as his father's, as his men's. hidden underneath cloth and armour.
merlin shares his battlefield, his kingdom, and-- on the luckiest night of arthur's life-- decides to share his bed, too.
it's after arthur has run his hands over every inch merlin will allow him that he realises. not once, in the fog of their union, did arthur's fingers ever stumble over raised skin, divots or grooves.
"what's wrong?" merlin asks, his voice quiet, his lips pressed to where their hands are joined. "tell me if you're about to kick me out of your bed, at least, so i can figure out how i am going to walk after all that."
it's a joke to mask how scared merlin must feel. this is a new development, though one as easy as breath, as predictable as the sun rising in the sky. arthur will tell him that later. for now, though--
"you promised," he whispers into merlin's neck, "to keep nothing more from me."
merlin frowns, his brows drawn together. "i haven't? i mean, if you're talking about my affections, surely we can both admit that yours were the more hidden--"
arthur places a hand over the groove of a lower rib. "here," he says, "is where you were almost run through by bandits, a few seasons ago." his fingers trail down to a hip. "here, you intervened in my fight with some beast or another, and i had to watch gaius give you stitches. and here--"
merlin stops his hand, sucks in a breath. "arthur."
"did you use magic to heal?" arthur finds he isn't angry, not in the way he expects. "i understand, merlin. you had to explain away so much; it would make sense--"
"it's a glamour," merlin admits in the space between his words.
arthur frowns. "a glamour."
merlin can only nod.
arthur knows what the word means, sort of, from the magical instruction and history merlin has given him in the time past their-- arthur's-- new found knowledge of their bond. but glamours, as merlin had explained, are oft for the use of enchantment, so as to make one's romantic interest view them as beautiful--
oh.
he rolls merlin onto his back.
"show me." it is a plea more than a command. it is not from merlin's king, but rather, arthur hopes, his heart.
merlin sighs. his eyes glow gold.
like roots spreading through the earth, a tide rippling over sand, his appearance changes. angry pink gnarls. fine, silver cuts. the faint shadow of where a burn once sat. they litter merlin's pale skin, old and new, in places arthur never could have imagined.
he knows his face must show something that makes merlin turn away from him. with a shaking hand, he turns merlin's chin back to him.
"tell me one thing," arthur says. it is a command, now. "were these all for me?"
there is no air in the room as merlin nods.
slowly, arthur draws in breath. he leans down, then, and presses his lips to one at the base of merlin's neck.
"then," he starts, shakily, "this is mine." another kiss, to his ribs, the puckered flesh of a sword wound. "this is mine." to his wrist, where chains must have sat at the behest of his father. "this is mine," and he's choking up, now.
merlin's trembling underneath him, a quaking branch in the wind. arthur spreads his fingers over merlin's heart, takes its beat in his palm, and looks him in his eyes.
"i will love everything you show me," arthur breathes, a promise, "because it is mine."
"as am i," merlin promises back. "as am i."

I'm still in the process of caramelizing this thought (under 12 hours in the ol' brain) so like it might be undercooked as the metaphor goes, but when Kirk caught the virus in The Naked Time, he went into his rant about love vs duty and how the ship takes both his life and his love from him due to that overbearing sense of duty he lives by. (Which still drives me nuts to think about! Spock burdens himself by trying to be 100% Vulcan to the expense of his humanity (that he still can't completely suppress!), and Kirk bludgeons himself through duty, keeping his personal feelings/desires/love tampered and locked down as a result! The willful repression of it all!! I am so so so not normal about characters struggling with repression!)
But later by The Balance of Terror, Kirk starts breaking down at the stress of keeping his entire crew alive while close to the Neutral Zone between Earth's Asteroid Outposts and the Romulan Empire. Any action taken in this area could signal death if not a renewed war between Earth and Romulus, making the Enterprise's moves that much larger than just one individual ship, and making Kirk's actions hold more weight than just the lives of the Enterprise.
And I realize a lot of this comes from the original pilot and the characterization of Captain Pike as he also expressed the same fears and the same desires to walk away from these duties entirely. It's no secret that character elements were reused for the second pilot and series proper (the "I will kill myself and everyone else to avoid anyone getting trapped, especially the Captain" attitude of Number One is definitely something given to Spock for the rest of the series. Call it duty or devotion or love (or all 3 at the same time), it's all there in both characters).
Only for Kirk to find his mirror in the Romulan Commander!
Now fine, maybe the Romulan Commander says "creatures of duty" to refer to the Romulans in general, and I'm just making a mountain out of a few phrases (as per usual). It makes sense: they're an offshoot of Vulcans, and it would follow that both species are bound to a strong sense of duty no matter the cost. But! If that was the case, why have the Commander tell Kirk they are alike before this line? Or spend the episode highlighting their similar tactics and planning? Or include the line, "In a different reality, I could've called you 'friend.'" (Which. If the designation of "friend" is a huge deal to Vulcans when it comes to species outside of their kind..... Is James Kirk the equivalent of catnip for Vulcans and Romulans alike? Half joke, half asking in earnest here / the reality is that Kirk probably does attract their respect and more because he is so terrifyingly duty-bound in such a way that sets him apart from other humans.)
Like. I don't know if I'm necessarily correct in thinking it (because I know Spock is used to show humanity from the outsider's perspective/make the viewer ask what makes one human), but sometimes Kirk seems more Vulcan than Spock as Spock seems more human than Kirk, which maybe works after all. If one can find the humanity in an alien, why not also see the alien in humanity?
#trekposting#star trek tos#captain kirk#hi hello i am so normal i am so so so normal (my brain worms are getting worse)#anyways my point is always this: spock & kirk are 2 sides of the same damn coin. perfect foils.#still steeping my silly brain in spirk#even tho god this ep.... having the romulan commander wishing to die to avoid war!! screaming and chewing dry wall this aired in 1966!!!#trek meta

so not only do we have weird antisemitism in the update today apparently sse is switching the lifetime tiers?
ive been hearing from a few people that now they're offering normally priced lifetime offers and on a case-by-case basis people are getting offers at around half price. with the catch being they very sneakily removed the text saying +100 sc every week, and those tiers get lifetime membership but no SC allowance. THEN telling people who contact customer support confused because they didn't get their allowance that it's for a higher tier and telling them to pay MORE than the normal tier costs to upgrade/ "fix" it.
idk i get why they'd do it, it would probably make a lot of money (and from what I understand a lot of live-update games like this don't include premium currency in their subscriptions) but like. that is so shady. and evidently not a mistake if customer support is directing people to upgrade to "higher tiers"
#star stable#ssoblr#but shady integration method aside what do yall think of having a lt tier with no star coin allowance?#i think i would be accepting of it if there were ways to 'earn' sc (very meager amounts but still)#like i know way back i used to play wizard 101 in middle school/high school and you could do trivia things for their premium currency#it took about a month of daily playing to afford anything or even two-three months for the more expensive things#but it was something i guess?#idk i am torn because i know sso is very abnormal with how much they give you#(pay once subscription + weekly premium currency)#but at the same time i feel like what you can buy with the premium currency takes up a lot of the gameplay#which is it's own can of worms of course

You know I have this headcanon that Lisa hates Dinah. Because (and no blame on our girl here) she was the exact reason Taylor left the Undersiders both times. With her initial discovery and later, the prophecy and Arcadia incident.
And I just love to think that Lisa (and maybe the undersiders but I don't think they knew about the note) found out and was fucking pissed. Because everything lisa worked, everything she did to make Taylor happy, was thrown away for this twelve year old twice.
And not only that, but Dinah did all of this to make Taylor into a monster (like yes it was Taylor's choice but still) and permanently cut her off from them all.
#and this is basically a bit canon with the eye contact as she pours the drink for taylor at the epilogue#like oh my god yes#and the kid cassandra thing#Imp or someone said that Lisa coined the Cassandra name#just to spite Dinah#and yes#parahumans#worm#worm web serial#worm the web serial#dinah alcott#lisa#lisa wilbourn#tattletale

Why don't you listen to The Killing Moon by Echo & The Bunnymen on loop for like an hour and maybe you won't calm down, maybe you'll feel some strange sort of weightless emptiness and/or existential dread. Maybe you'll also get to hear some cool beats 👍.
#ignore me#yes mayhaps i did listen to this song on loop for at least 45 minutes#it's just been stuck in my head because i watched donnie darko a couple weeks ago and it plays in the opening scene#it's got an interesting sound to it#the killing moon#echo and the bunnymen#music#songs#not writing#earworms#hate that term hate the term ear worm hate that that's the actual term for songs that get stuck in your head fire who coined that

Nonhuman Alter Flag!
the symbol is a simplified version of the nonhuman alter symbol on pluralpedia that we made, the dark blue represents the unity between all types of nonhumans, the purple represents the supernatural and a separation from humanity, the yellow represents those who find joy in both human and nonhuman experiences, the light green represents those who enjoy all of the human experience, and the dark green represents our place here on earth together, no matter where we are from
there are some variations under the cut!
Alien alter! based on the alien-gender flag submitted here
Monster alter! based on the gendermonster system by @kiruliom
while this isnt a gender flag, I as a nonhuman often connect with nonhuman related genders, so i figured i would make some avaliable along with the base flag
here are some transparents for anyone who wants to make a variation of this! please tag me if you make one I would love to see what others can make of this!
(in order, headmate stripe nonhuman symbol combo, headmate stripe, nonhuman symbol)
I also made some attraction flags! this is mostly for me, but yall are free to use these as well!
(in order, top to bottom)
Human4Monster | Monster4human
Human4Alien | Alien4Human
Human4Nonhuman | Nonhuman4Human
definitions are similar for all of these, they are for when you are a human that is attracted to monsters/aliens/nonhumans in some way, or for when you are a monster/alien/nonhuman attracted to humans in some way.
DNI: Anti-Endo, Anti-mogai, MAPS/PEDOS, TERFS/SWERFS, Exclusionists. Please dont "reclaim" these terms to make a statement, anyone can use them as long as it not in a hurtful manner
Credit is much appreciated but not necessary, just have fun with them!

My durge and Gortash’s relationship is like. Two horrible little best friends who put an amazing amount of trust in each other despite their positions and generally horrible personalities making it more or less impossible. They’ve known each other carnally and robbed a few supposedly unrobable places. It ain’t true but it is love.
#also my durge is a huge dnd pot head and a deeply capable monster of epic proportions#Aku is like cercei Lannister motivated by love to even more psychotic extents who also thinks hunting people is a delightful pastime#something something volo said all spawn are coins landing on their sides#he swings from being totally okay#even happy#with his occupation as anti christ#only to fall into short lived but deeply tumultuous periods of meloncholy or breaks INTO reality#where he may not regret his choices but he does regret bhaal and knowing he will never see an end to being father dears perpetual servant#no escape no life beyond this tiny little existence he didn’t get a choice in#he fully slides up to my quasi immortal tav multiple times#still brain damaged#and is like the things I could do to your body over and over and over again baby…#tomoko voice are you flirting with me or threatening me?#Aku voice oh baby it’s a prommy#anyhow durge is a funny tyrannical god complexer who says shit like ‘you approached the blunt with a heavy karmic debt’ after eating#an inn keepers face off and doing some very suggestive tongue stuff before he sucked out his eyeballs like other people suck out gogurt#has had like twenty kids tried to give Enver a kid (his? not? does it matter#take the honor you little worm) a kid only to be bitterly disappointed each time#would love to do some laundry and taxes#nic plays bg3#they show up to the function (post bg3 events where gortash lives) lookin real good only to go hooooow could you cheat on me like this#(they are both fucking or wooing different people now)
