Fluids by may leitz (spoiler warning)

I’m in love with horror and this one was almost up my alley but the extreme nature of this book I couldn’t really get through it (I’m a big baby lol) so instead I scraped the internet for spoilers and synopses of this book cuz I love the content that nix fears/may leitz makes!

I suggest if you like trucked up nasty stories with evil girls you should buy this with your dollars!!

Dahlia is lavender and Lauren is pink, I wanted to evoke the colors from the first edition cover. I love to draw shy girls and evil girls so this is a match made in hell, I feel like dahlia would wear lots of layers like jackets and blankets to cover up and letting her hair grow hella long cuz she doesn’t look at herself much :(

Also idk if they ever give each other presents but I like the idea that they swapped accessories when they finally got together cuz… 💅💅💅💅y’know

I listen and watch may’s stuff all the time, so as a tribute to evil murder lesbians that destroy themselves and each other, here is Lauren and Dahlia as I interpreted them! Dahlia makes me so sad, I want nothing but the best for her and I’m glad she made it out alive!!

Sorry for the ramble I just needed to get this off my chest and out of my system!!

GO SUPPORT MISS MAY PLEASEEEE

The heavy lean into petplay because existing in a world that hates us is too much, and it's so much easier to just let go and be an animal than to keep being a human that gets attacked. The lean into fauxcest to build a family that loves you unconditionally, family members who will provide for you without judgement. Paraphilia in general is so popular because we're so ostracized from society at large and even queer culture at large, to the point where we bond with the strange and downtrodden and realize we have more in common than we thought.

Trans women are teaching me new ways to love. New ways to *live*. Some transmasc and non-binary people too, of course, as is always the case, but like. We have a shared identity, not even necessarily through upbringing or similar interests, but due to the way we're treated like shit by everyone. We're demonized together and it does nothing but galvanize us and make us stronger.

We are forged in fire, together. Brothers and sisters, across the world, bound by a need to survive, and coming out the other side by loving each other so much that we're bursting with it.
