Very interesting (concerning) that while there’s a general consensus of “of course there’s queer Muslims and Jews and Christians we love them!” But that love is conditional. You can be religious but not too religious. You can be spiritual as long as it’s not actually that important to you. You can be observant of your religion’s dogma and traditions as long as you keep it away from everybody else.
But I don’t want to cut myself into smaller pieces. I don’t want to take a part of my life and culture and being and hide it away behind closed doors. It’s just…hypocritical and disappointing when people, who clamor about their love for the contradictory and self-authentic, hate when they’re confronted with it.

It’s very very funny to me that I started Red Valley, heard the mc had a wife and immediately thought “ah gee a wife in a horror podcast. I hope she isn’t fridged or something” and THEN

Venti Brainrot eh? I can work with that.
I've read a few fics that say Archons can change their form at will... (minor spoilers for Venti's backstory)
Venti realizing who you are because the wind seems to sing whenever you're around. It's constantly guiding him to you and actively pushes him away from the fake on the throne. He's not stupid, he sees the way the land flourishes wherever you go. The plants and wind seem to cradle you while rejecting the faker outright.
Knowing he can't approach you in his human form (he's seen how you shy away from any and all human contact), he shifts into his wind sprite form to greet you. He's more than happy to show you the love and affection you deserve as the First Guiding Wind. And so what if he keeps quiet about how much he adores the affection you give back? It's not like you mind, ehe!
-sibling anon, who also loves the windy boi
ah, a fellow citizen of brainrot city
anyway the idea of archons changing their forms is so cool actually (and maps to canon bc venti changed into this form so) and i think i’d enjoy small dragon!li as like a weighted blanket pls and thank
but back to the prompt: yes. so much yes.
he’s already tuned into nature quite well, so he can hears how the harmonies turn discordant around the throne room. likewise, he notes that the wind sings of heaven, of liyue, sumeru, of wherever you are, pleading with him to stop the hunt. to pull you away to a castle of gold, filled with whatever you need while keeping you safe from those who dared call you the sinner.
i honestly think a lot of my problems could be solved by simply having Wisp Venti at my side, sagau or not, isekai or not, imposter au or not. like he’s so……..
he comes up to you with a curious trill, wondering if you’ll be receptive to this form- he spends his time floating beside you like one of the companion seelies, and is so much more open to displays of affection than bird!xiao i’m- he openly runs into your hand when he wants pets, he cuddles blatantly into you when it’s time for bed, he leads you towards trees with the freshest apples (or sunsettias, if you’re allergic or don’t like them) and fully expects a pat on the head as a reward. he communicates entirely through sqeaks and chirps—he sounds a lot like the mini seelies actually, at least in my mind, but it has a speech-like pattern to it—and softly hums a little when he’s asleep, like a little white noise machine for you <3

I am trying to make a studio* for making and publishing ttrpgs and I told a relative of mine the acronym for the name, and their first response was “it kinda sounds like LGBTQ”. I’d say that’s a success.

hello! do you know of any other tmnt fics that are from regular peoples pov?
thank you and have a good day!
Not really? I’m sure there must be *some*
Fairly certain that this one time I saw a platonic Donnie x Reader on tumblr where you encounter a turtle while walking your dog at night and it’s Donnie while his leg is infected and so you help him out and then y’all kinda just keep hanging out
There *was* this one cool series, but as it turns out, the author ships the turtles together, so. Rip to that
And other than that I have legit not seen anything. Not anything that wouldn’t either be an xReader or an OC story, and while I like both to a certain level it’s not really the genre I’m looking for. So, y’know! Nothing left to do but write it ourselves! Because I don’t want a romance between a turtle and a character/me, and I don’t want like.. detailed knowledge of one person! The story I’m looking for is basically… New York as a collective consciousness, being more or less aware of the turtles and other odd things in its innards. The whispers between strangers!
My Revolution a radio does have like.. a few reappearing characters that I hope you’ll love but I’m trying not to make them *main* characters as much as they’re just plot devices, if that makes sense.
