i am so so gently asking abled storytellers to try this little exercise: consider that maybe the main character doesn't miraculously get through traumatic event number 8277 with minor injuries. maybe they don't make a full, narratively-convenient recovery. there are tangible, long-term effects on their health. they are disabled. there are lots of ways to be disabled, and you can pick whatever makes the most sense. the point is that because they're the main character, they have to stay at the heart of the narrative. what happens to your story after that? just for the sake of this exercise, you're not allowed to have them spiral into helpless depression, or collapse under self-loathing, or turn their story into a quest for a cure or an uplifting recovery narrative. think it through instead. how can you tell this story with the character's disability? what needs to change? are there any reasons why these changes can't happen?
at the end of it, you might change nothing. but I think this is worth doing, because sometimes you'll find that the reason you didn't want your character to have a limp, or lose a limb or sense, or have some kind of SFF-appropriate fantasy disability is because of internalised biases. those are worth challenging & i truly believe that creators miss out on richer stories when they view disability either as a fate worse than death or as nothing more than a catalyst for tragedy.
"im not saying feminism is for everyone but-" the fuck? well im saying that. feminism is for everyone. yes even cishet men will benefit from feminism and cishet men should be feminists because cishet men are indeed harmed by the patriarchy; nowhere near to the extent that women are, but having a culture that is fully equal and anti-misogynist benefits everyone. have we forgotten that lifting up the disenfranchised people in society helps all of us as a collective? "im not saying that universal and unalienable human rights are for everyone but-" YES THE FUCK THEY ARE LOL

Sonic Prime: Round Two:
Directly following the end of Sonic Prime, not all is well on South Island- or the Shatterverses. The Chaos Council has discovered that the repairing of the Paradox Prism has given each Shatterverse a full, individual Prism instead of a piece. And like Eggman, the Chaos Council is a one-trick pony: They want it all for themselves. It's up to Sonic and Shadow- along with their friends and foes including Silver, Metal Sonic, and Cream among others- to delve into the Shatterverses and stop the Chaos Council once more.
More Than A Victim:
A multi-chapter adventure fic centered around exploring Maria Robotnik's character, finding a way to save her, and confronting what it means to be sacrificed for someone else's narrative. The official summary is as follows:
Maria has come to a realization: she's going to die. Naturally, the only solution is to warp time and space to prevent her own death.
With a new friend in Amy Rose, Maria plans to use White Space to cure herself, stop the bullet that ends her life, and vent some long-repressed anger about her situation. Along the way, she'll show off the girl behind her ever-cheerful mask, make some new friends, and cause more than her fair share of explosions.
After all, why should hedgehogs be the ones having all the fun? She's gotta make up for lost time.
"Do you ever wonder how the sacrificial lamb feels about being slaughtered? Do you think they ever wished it could have gone differently? To selfishly want to survive, even if it hurt others? Is the lamb allowed the little mercy of anger at the greater good?"

Sonic Underground: Reprise:
Sonia, Manic, and Sonic are the adult children of Queensā Aleena and Bernadette, the rightful rulers of Mobotropolis, the capital of Mobius. They are pursued relentlessly by Doctor Robotnik and his jewel-loving bounty hunter, Rouge the Bat. As infants, the siblings were separated and placed in hiding to fulfill a prophecy made by Silver; the Oracle of Delphi. The prophecy foretold that the triplets would grow up to find their estranged mother, Aleena, discover the secrets of the mystical and powerful Chaos Emerald, overthrow Robotnik to restore Mobotropolis to what it once was, and take their places once more as Mobius' rightful heirs.
Lucente AU:
Experience a fresh take on a story long-overdue for some justice! The Lucente Au is a reimagining of the Sonic 06, with a focus on giving its unique cast the time they need to shine! Elise, Silver, and Blaze get expanded into true protagonists and heroes, as well as expansions to characters like Rouge, Omega, Mephiles, and more!
The Au is split into 3 arcs:
Team Myth - An adventure as Elise, Amy, and Sonic travel Soleanna on a quest to unveil Elise's fathers killer.
Team Dark - A mystery where Shadow, Rouge, and Omega deal with the fallout of a mission gone wrong and recapture Mephiles.
Team Future - A phycological horror for Silver, Blaze, and Metal as they travel to the past to prevent the world from ending in 7 days.
The Lucente Project seeks to provide answers to mysteries left unexplained for twenty years!
A glimpse into the origins of Soleanna's worship of Solaris, the city's history with the Chaos Emeralds, and a look at just how thorough Mephiles has been with his plots. These, and more, will show you Soleanna like you've never seen before in!
jax died before she could come out, and she died before she could become a better person and make any kind of amends with the people she hurt. I don't think the story was written that way by accident
she's horribly repressed and comes from horrible circumstances including homelessness. she also pushed away every hand extended to her and every chance she could have taken to get better. there were a million better decisions she could have made and she did not make them, and she caused an incredible amount of harm along the way. and still the story wants us to believe her worthy of being understood and loved
to come out would be to embody herself, to view herself as a real person, to start to leave the haze of dissociation that allows her to think of herself and everyone else as cartoon archetypes in a false world where nothing matters
she's desperate to stay in this world that she sees as false, where she's a funny cartoon character and she can still brush off the pain she causes as silly cartoon antics
it's exactly this dissociation that allows her not to take her own pain or the pain of others seriously. it was what ultimately led to her death. a jax that cannot come out is also a jax that cannot make amends
something I love about a tragic story, where a character fails to complete the arc that might have satisfied us as the audience, is that it asks us what led to the tragedy
the despair it leaves us with, the satisfaction it denies us, leaves us to yearn for things to have turned out differently. it leaves us thinking about what could have been done, what decisions could have been made, what different circumstances could have prevented the tragedy? dissatisfaction drives us to act
I love, by the way, the matter-of-fact cut from her walking away to her already being gone. like many tragedies we experience in our lives, the news comes to us unceremoniously, undramatically, flatly. it arrives well after the moment where we could have been there. in one quiet moment the world shifts underneath our feet. at first it feels like nothing at all until the information percolates through us, manifesting first as a dull ache that feels inadequately small and insignificant
we don't get to ask "what could I have done if I were there," we can only ask "what could I have done before it got this bad?"
i think a lot of people heard about chekov's gun and thought it only applied to like. actual guns. and that it wasn't meant to be extended to literally every element a writer puts in a story
chekov's gun is supposed to be about how no superfluous elements should exist in a work at all. there shouldn't be anything there that doesn't serve a purpose. on its face, it's a directive aimed at writers. but the inverse of that, for us the audience, is that if something is in a story, we can generally assume that it wasn't put there on accident. we can assume that it serves a purpose. even if it seems random and pointless at first, we have to assign it meaning, because otherwise it wouldn't be there. that random piece of characterization? the author must have considered it vital, or it wouldn't be there. the way the camera lingered on a specific thing? you can be sure it's important. the way characters dress, their backgrounds, their habits, it all says something about who they are and how the author intends you to see them. it's the basis of media analysis: why does this element exist? what's its purpose? why was it put there? people always say i'm great at media analysis, but this is really all i do. you recognize the elements, and figure out what purpose they serve.

white t girl i love you. and also do not forget that you are not the modern martyr for the oppressed voice. that's still black girls. it's always been black girls. stories of black martyrdom simply don't make it into the news cycle until the unrest caused by its reporting can be packaged as a "riot" segment between traffic reports. i know you suffer, but whatever you're experiencing, i beg you, when interacting with your community and building nuanced understandings of each other and the system which binds us, to not forget that a black tgirl has felt it 100 times worse before positioning yourself as an authority on all systems of oppression for having suffered unjustly at all. because you have suffered unjustly, but suffering unjustly as a white person means something so much different.
serenely reblogging this once more after deleting responses from white people saying "talking about this is actually unhelpful because im oppressed too" yeah i know. i wrote that down in the post i made, and i also wrote down why remembering the difference is important. did you read it?
there is no malice in my reminder. no "you need to do better", just a reminder. do not read it as such. i didn't write it as such.
again. i did not say you were not oppressed. this post is literally about how you are oppressed. it is a reminder that you are not the most oppressed person in the world, a way i've seen a lot of white transfems acting lately. maybe not even necessarily in a detrimental way, but in a way that definitely leans towards the "white is default" lane of thinking, which erases black suffering, which erases progress towards black safety. this, to me, is troubling, which is why i made this post. it's important when building solidarity within our community to understand who the most vulnerable of us are, because the safety of the most vulnerable of us will ultimately be the safety of all of us.
please do not be offended when you are reminded that your skin is white. im not calling you evil. im asking you to remain aware of yourself.
Thing is that Iām not the only Black trans woman writing theory on transfeminism, Black transfeminism, or trans intersectionality - Iām just lightskinned and wonāt shut up so Iām one of the most visible ones, and crackers STILL get mad at me for saying the most basic-ass concepts like āwhite people are still white even if theyāre otherwise marginalizedā
In many cases, intracommunity racial intersectionality fails because given the choice between solidarity with nonwhite trans people and white people (trans or cis), white trans people will almost always side with other whites in the hopes of preserving a degraded position within white supremacy, because they internally see being ālesserā within whites supremacy but still above nonwhites as preferable to solidarity with nonwhites that loses them that positionality.
I wanna toss this link on here because itās directly related to the whole ālack of intracommunity solidarity when race is involvedā thing and has a specific example from my local community.
š¬ 0Ā Ā š 132Ā Ā ā¤ļø 218Ā Ā·Ā 100% agreed, but I also want to bring up a similar concern specific to Black transfemmes: the intersection of gendered
