Professor

The Bastard Crow

I promise I have not abandoned my DATV blogs, but between Witcher brainrot, getting together the DATV RP server my friend and I have been working on, and scrambling to make enough money for the next few months without knowing when SNAP is coming back, I know my activity has taken a nose dive.

Always feel free to reach out to me on discord to chat and plot, even if I'm taking forever with our stuff I am more than happy to chat and plot.

You can also find me mostly over on Jaskier @dandiestbard and Geralt @whitehairedwitcher, who both have DATV verses (also Cahir @iamnotanilfgaardian and Regis @abitofrest they don't have DATV verses yet but we can work things out)

“I have to say, that certainly isn’t their color.”

“They are like a swan on the dance floor. Graceful when still, but a waddling mess when on land.”

“You can hardly call this a royal ball. More like the nobility desperate to act like things are the same.”

“The champagne has gold leaf in it.”

“I don’t know whether to be impressed by the fineries, or appalled by the waste.”

“Looks as though the Duke is already three sheets to the wind.”

“I should have eaten before I came. Hors d'oeuvres are not going to be enough.”

“I really only came for the feast.”

“How early is too early to leave?”

“There is a game of cards going on in the other room, care to join?”

“These shoes are the worst.”

“Everyone is so extravagant, I feel underdressed.”

“Do you think the king’s mistress is making him late?”

“Care to dance?”

“Can I cut in?”

“Ow! That’s my foot.”

“They are a terrible dancer, but they are also awfully sweet.”

“You’ve danced with everyone here but me!”

“Well. Aren’t you popular with the ladies/men tonight…”

“Plenty of good matches tonight, don’t you think?” 

“Anyone catch your eye tonight?”

“You could meet the love of your life tonight and not even realize it.”

“What have they done to gain your affections that I couldn’t?”

“Those ladies have been eyeing you like you are a knight in shining armor.”

“Their position is determined by marriage, and to them you are a secure future.”

“I’d like you to meet ______, They have been dying to get to know you.”

“Don’t look now, but I think ____ has plans of winning you over.”

“You look amazing.”

“You are the most ravishing lady in the room.”

“You clean up well.”

“Can we go home?”

“I only came to be polite, and now I’m going home.”

“I’m your ‘plus one’. You brought me here, I can’t leave without you.”

“Oh please, can we stay just a bit longer?”

“The king is black out drunk, and that is my cue to leave.”

“Wine, women, and dancing. What else could a party need?”

“I’m sorry, I’m waiting for someone.”

“This is a party? Looks more like a gambling den.”

“You’ve been alone all night, come join us.”

Poison, potions, lotions; those Viago could remedy with ease. But blades and arrows, fire and other forms of magic were far more difficult.

The burn across his hand made any form of self-medication near impossible. Hence why he was now scowling on a chair in Emmrich's quarters, his hand, arm, and even shoulder exposed for the mage to tend to.

"They've changed the gaatlok," he stated curtly, only wincing at the sting of air against his burns. "Lucanis mentioned the Venatori might be involved."

However, he provided his services with little gloating, though admittedly he did receive a measure of enjoyment from finding one of the higher ranking members of their organization requiring his aid.

HEY FOLKS , WE NEED TO TALK! get comfy because this is a long post with important stuff in it , that will briefly discuss examples of transphobia we've spotted in the rpc. just a heads up that this includes some quotes of transphobic things that have been said. as a trans person who is also friends with a lot of other trans people in the rpc , we've been seeing quite the uptick of incidents of transphobia in the community for a few months now. a lot of it has been going on in fantasy fandoms , but it's probably because we're in those most that we see it the most and this isn't isolated to just those. it's an issue that's more prevalent recently , and it's something that we think needs to be pointed out and most importantly actually tell you our suggestions for what you can do to help make and keep the rpc safe for trans people. our rights are being attacked tenfold right now and finding safe places in real life and online is getting harder and harder. please don't contribute to that and try to help us in making it better. i won't be calling anyone out on this post , going into specifics , mud-slinging or name calling. that won't solve any problems or let anyone move forward. the key to being better is giving people room to learn from their accidents , screw ups and mistakes , and reflect on how they can better that behaviour for the whole community to benefit. i won't be taking questions or responding to messages unless it's to chat about moving forward with these intentions.

*:･ﾟ✧ WHAT'S BEEN GOING ON? i'll tell ya!

roleplayers have been fetishising other people's trans characters like they're sexual oddities and not people. focus on a character's genitals , asking if a character's genitals are ' normal ' or not ( heads up , trans people's are as normal as everyone else's ) , treating trans people and muses as if their gender is ' fake ' , or pushing fetishes related to topics like pregnancy or periods on them without their consent. conversely , writing nsfw rp involving trans characters is not always inherently fetishistic ---- some roleplayers have been telling them it is. trans people can be sexy , have sex and enjoy sex , and they should be able to write and discuss this material as openly as everyone else does. implying that trans people just having sex lives is fetishistic and shouldn't be allowed can contribute to the shame that some of us feel about our bodies and us having healthy , normal desires that a lot of people have. roleplayers have been equating gender to genitals in and out of character. not everyone of the same gender has the same genitals , and not everyone with the same genitals has the same gender. neither invalidate the other and phrases like ' she has what every women has ' or ' he's just like all men ' when talking about muses that are cis or trans aren't helpful and can make us feel dysphoric. roleplayers have been openly mocking trans people who have said they don't want to be approached by people who write harry potter content. it's mean-spirited , implies our feelings and boundaries are an over reaction , and doesn't extend any empathy. it ignores the point we're making that we're just asking to not have to interact with material written by an active oppressor of our rights. trans roleplayers have been including rhetoric in their roleplay that reflects transmedicalist beliefs , that trans people should adhere to strict gender roles , and stereotypes that people are trans because they're groomed to be. these are stereotypes that people use to attack us , discredit us , and police our gender expression. our own community isn't perfect and we need to challenge and talk about internalised transphobia as much as external.

*:･ﾟ✧ BUT WHAT CAN I DO ABOUT IT? i'll tell ya that too!
