Name’s Dol/Check, either works! I use any pronouns, don’t really mind.
shhh. I made a strawpage
I have 1 (one) singular tag I use. It’s checkadii, and should have most of not all of my art on there.
I am not nsfw free— I am an adult (believe it or not), so. I rb what tickles my fancy. Could be a text post, could be implied sexual content, could be nudity, injury, so on so forth. I know a simple ‘minor dni’ doesn’t. Deter everyone (been there. guilty), so please just be careful and curate your internet experience thumbs up emoji
General DNI’s apply! It’s stupid but. yeagh, includes TERFS, incest shippers, zoophiles and maps
Yk! Be a decent human being
This should also be a given, but I do NOT support generative AI! Keep that shit away from creative spaces. From any spaces actually. God

^ It’s me. I’m dol. I’m the guy. Guy who was Not Part Of The Conversation. Guy Who Was Not Made Aware Of This Beforehand. Guy Who Cannot Read The Language This Conversation Was Held In. Me. That Guy. Guy Who Is Already Overwhelmed Because All Of The Players Speak Thai So It’s Just Easier For Them To Chat In Thai. Guy Who Cannot Fucking Write Or Read Thai. Guy Who Is Not Part Of The Goddamn Conversation
got poked at in a very non serious lighthearted joking way by fellow staff members for how I’m practically absent as a staff (even though my primary role is information focused) and npc wise and im like. Yeah. I told you guys this would happen. I said this would be a concern. I know that the players are going to be reluctant to interact with me because they don’t *know* me. They are familiar with you guys because you’ve all been in many community roleplays together. You guys have acquaintances and connections on Facebook. You’ve at least been aware of eachother for years. I’ve known you since Halloween last year. I told you they’re going to be reluctant to interact with me because I can’t. Fucking read Thai. They said it themselves n the qna when npc relationships came up. I said it. You really. I know they don’t mean anything by it it’s entirely lighthearted but I don’t know it’s become such a stupid sore spot. I hate being prodded at even if indirectly for not knowing how to read and write my fucking mother tongue
Highkey not helping my nausea I just feel like throwing up even more now god damn it. Whatever. Unable to reconnect with her nationality and her mother tongue and her culture and her gender and her passion and her dreams and aspirations and her will to keep fighting. Yeah okay. Got it allll on my plate right now. Why am I being so damn sensitive about this. It’s a stupid roleplay.

this post is inspired in part by this one by @cheshirepirouette and sponsored in part by convos w @asteriis and @indouscurse here’s to y’all!! this post also goes out to my brothers, who are pale as hell for reasons unbeknownst to all of us (this is a joke).
like any good headcanon, this started as a joke because i thought to myself: Ryland sounds like the type of name that somebody’s Black child would have and only use on church sundays. nobody actually has ever called him that in his whole entire life, except maybe his mama SOMETIMES and that’s why he doesn’t remember it right away. i feel like every Black person knows somebody who is called literally anything except their god given name. people call him lil r, lil grace, gracie, ry, ryry, riri, RG, lando, mr. grace, dr. grace, but nobody calls him Ryland, which is part of why he Can’t Remember for so long.
so of course i went back to the source material to see if he ever actually mentioned being white anywhere and unfortunately it is very much at the beginning of the book. so THEN i started to think about how i could get around that while remaining at least largely canon compliant (as a little treat for myself). what i came up with is what i have affectionately dubbed my “litebrite baby” headcanon.
grace was not particularly dark skinned to begin with, and then spent years in a coma with literally no sunlight. he is downright vampiric by the time that he wakes up, and upon seeing his white ass skin, assumes that he is in his own words, a Caucasian male.
unfortunately for him, this fits in really well with his theme of lack of identity and lack of connection. i think for most Black people it would be extremely hard to forget that we’re Black regardless of how light or dark our skin tone is. but throughout the book, even when Grace is thinking about his old, slowly resurfacing memories, he never thinks about family, he never thinks about friends. except for his students and Project Hail Mary, he is completely unmoored.
i’ve seen a few different headcanons for why this might be: he was an only child whose single parent died young, he was cut off by his parents for some reason or another, he just isn’t ever triggered to remember. but no matter the reason, grace is disconnected from crucial aspects of himself. i think that by making him Black, and his Blackness something he can’t remember, it add an extra heartbreaking layer to his characterization. Blackness is such a communal experience, and when it’s not, it leaves behind an ache. growing up Black in White Suburbia i know well both the experience of clinging to one’s own in a hostile world AND the hurt that comes with being severed from one’s community. grace loses so much of himself with the amnesia, unable to recall who he is at the deepest of levels, and i think if he could remember to grieve it, it would devastate him.
i do think he would remember eventually, either when his hair starts growing out (because in the book Armando shaves him iirc), or when he can finally catch a glimpse of his reflection clearly, or when he has a memory of someone in his family. my personal belief is he has a memory beamed directly into his brain of asking “Mama, am I white?” and his poor, long-suffering mom saying, “Now who the hell told you that?”
and then it still never becomes relevant because he has negative desire to explain the nuances of human racial categories to an alien who quite literally cannot see color.

Mmmmmm the idea that Vash, long after the fight is won, would sometimes stumble on over to Wolfwoods grave just to lay on it and try to slip his rotting corpse some of his energy. Most the time he just lays there and cries, imagining the heated sand as Wolfwoods warm embrace. He knows forking energy into the earth to try and reach Wolfwood would only kill him. Maybe a tree would sprout but that would be it. But would it really be so bad if he was resting by Wolfwoods side again? Would it be so bad if Vash became the fungus that dutifully decomposes his beloved?

okay but so like. Phm and iron lung trigun au yes. Right. Okay.
> project Hail Mary is a failure > development of alternative energy sources (plants) and food sources (also plants) > hurried colonization (space stations, colony ships, Eden, COI, whole shabang, SEEDs equivalent) ???
Or.
> project Hail Mary is still a failure > plants developed on Erid initially as a way to keep Grace company ??? Something went wrong? Sorta??? They’re now a hive mind and very much angelic. They sing. > Eridians go wait fire. Let’s sing > Grace is confused but more than happy n goes along with it. > hey grace what if we tried turn you into oneWHAT
Orrrr
> since sun dimming very rapid technological development takes place outside of public eyes > grace is actually a prototype plant developed by a scientist of the same name / he’s independent plant maxxing > everyone lowk got unnerved like okay it’s kinda. Is it. Man even this feels a bit unethical that’s a grown ass man we just made and he likes twizzlers and sour skittles > development of dependent / bulb plants > guys they’re still sentient and a HIVEMIND > guys wait the independent plant is lowkey cooking with the astrophage
Interjection What if the plants have compositions of astrophage. That’s a big power source. Maybe it’s more contained within a vessel
> anyways guys like what if we. You knowwww tried giving it. Him? stuff to do. Yeah? > works out spectacularly > colony ships are still a Go > guys the independent plant is singing with the bulb plants. No it’s not. Really doing any harm it actually seems to be making them all pretty happy n more productive > oh okay let him be > [dubois and shapiro dies (f)] > ykwhat human grace also Dies > okay so. I know he’s like our hashtag. Technological breakthrough but we NEED the Hail Mary to launch for a solution. > send him up. Sorry. We constructed you in a false womb and kept you at arms length behind scientific curiosity. You were still very adored and loved. You will be remembered as a First for man, and a First for your kind, and a Hero.
> Seeds. Ark? Since, yknow, we already have the Hail Mary, so. ARK. (Bats knives away). Ark is still a go. People are growing desperate and scared. The world is worsening. Plants are dying. It’s becoming so horribly cold. People are starving. Animals are frail and thin and starting to produce less and less offspring. Conflicts arise. Wars break out. The Sun continues to dim. The Beatles do not return.
Okay Split Point. Beatles do not return in time to save the Sol system. Iron Lung takes place. Beatles return in time. Maybe iron lung still takes place in a nook of space where nothing lives and there are no stars
