[leafwhirlwind]

Just saw the Hanamusa Mermay pic and it is lovely ^_^

I'm curious though, what was your thought process for choosing what water Pokemon to use for the mermaid tails?

thankyew!!

jessie bruxish was the easiest decision of my life. like the loud colors, kinda aggressive personality, half lids and lipstick? they're the same. delia gorebyss was mostly for the pinks and aesthetically looked closest to her (even has the little ahoge). ash eelektrik was for the electric typing and being a sort of eel pokemon like his mom and then james was just me wanting to do something different for him LOL. I was between wishiwashi, vaporeon and finizen for him but i just thought kingdra would look cool

Please go watch Sex Explained on Netflix. Not only is it a great resource for the basic sex education that is sorely lacking in the U.S., but some of ya’ll need to take a deep breath and remember the difference between fantasy vs reality. This purity culture thing that we’re going through right now is directly harmful to responsible, healthy sexual expression. BTW this woman, Lisa Diamond, is a noted psychologist and has been pushing for greater understanding of womens sexuality as a whole.
