𝙰𝙱𝙾𝚄𝚃 𝙼𝙴

Eyyo I'm back from my break so I wanted to re-introduce myself!

My name is Andromeda, I use he/they pronouns, and I am very queer. I am currently in Senior Year pt 2: Electric Boogaloo with a Classics major (Greek concentration) and two minors in Latin and Attic Greek.

I am a disabled punk from the middle of butt-fuck nowhere. This tends to bleed into my writing, which solidly lives in a gritty/dark area. Please be sure to pay attention to the themes and warnings I have listed on my WIP Intro Posts!!

WIP: Call Me Icarus

Status - Writing the First Draft

Sublime Grimdark story following Icarus as he takes a look behind the curtain of the Elysian Program and sees the disgusting framework that he was disillusioned to. Now the only thing on his mind is bringing down the program and the entire ATLAS corporation. Will he be able to when the world seems set against him?

WIP: Desecrate

Status - Planning!

What if Marcion was right about the Catholic religion? What if there were two Gods that created the Earth and everything on it? And what if the second God, the God of the Material, was imprisoned by their creation?

This blog is not my main, I follow and interact from @satansspikeybutthole. Please do not follow me there unless you want to be bombarded with whatever blorbo I become hyperfixated on (Currently its Kratos and Thor from God of War: Ragnarok)

I am tag game / ask game friendly! it is likely that I will not see most posts unless you tag me in them!

I was tolerating the issues i have been dealing with, however I can't not interact with everyone

I want to be able to reblog people's writing and tell them how cool they are! I want to send my friends silly messages and random posts! most importantly, i want to be able to be tagged when you guys create awesome things!

So I will be migrating to @andromedaexists

HI HELLO I HAVE NEWS FOR Y'ALL

So we all know my book baby, Call Me Icarus. Well, he's got a face now! May I present to you the cover reveal for Δάιος, the first book in the Call Me Icarus trilogy:

For those of y'all who don't know, Δάιος is an Anti-Establisment grimdark retelling of the fall of Icarus as he looks behind the curtain of the Elysian Program and sees the disgusting framework he was disillusioned to. Now, the only thing on his mind is burning the program to the ground, but will he be able to when the world (and his body) is set against him?

OR

Are you a fan of trans men being the worst? queer people making bad decisions? blood?? Good, I've got it all right here in this book. I have a feeling y'all will love Icky baby

After a year of working on this bad boy, Δάιος is just about ready to release into the world! There have been a lot of highs and lows on this journey, a lot of winds in the road, but we are rapidly approaching our destination.

You can add Δάιος on GoodReads now! It is also available for pre-order (eBook only for now, physical copies will be available in paperback and hard cover on october 10th! both on Amazon as well as my own webbed site)

Also yes, queer is more inclusive! Especially coming at it from an academic standpoint, people didn’t always use or identify with the terms we use now and you can’t always try to cram them into our modern perceptions of sexuality. We can argue for years about whether a famous historical figure was gay or bisexual or straight and trans or whatever, but if we can all agree that they were somehow queer then using that term allows us to move past the debate and into productive discussion. And not everybody everywhere shares the same terms for sexual and gender identity, or even the same concepts of those things, so queer really is a more inclusive term in a lot of cases.

Your words are slurs, too. Why do you get your words, but I don’t get mine? What makes you so special?

every single one of our labels has been used as a slur against us.

terfs and -phobes are always going to try and hurt us with what we identify as. but the fact remains these are OUR labels and always have been.

It just baffled me that people would think an identifier is automatically a slur just because someone uses it to mock someone. If we did that gay would be a slur. Stupid would be a slur. Autistic would be a slur.
