“To be visibly Queer is to choose your happiness over your safety” 
It’s pride month and this is the only space I feel save being honest about MY experience. I knew in middle school I liked girls, this was before I determined I was NB. I was scared, a bully in my gym class often put me down by calling me a lesbian, I did not know what it was really, fragments maybe. I knew my Uncle was gay, I knew that was something my family accepted and I never knew anything different, but no one explained what it meant to be a lesbian. Growing up lesbian and gay were the popular slurs. In middle school I played traveling volleyball, it was what I considered my main sport, I was always on the outside socially because I tried very hard at practice and the rest of my team wouldn’t meet my energy as they considered it a leisure sport to engage in during their off season. There was always this one girl who was nice to me when we’d talk, I had a crush on a girl in my friend group from school (Not volleyball), and I wasn’t sure what to do. I talked with girl and she actually gave me great advice and I followed it the next day at school, didn’t work out but thats okay. So I come home from school that next day feelin good and I walk into my mother screaming into the phone, I don’t remember that part but I know when she saw me she dismissed the person on the phone, came marching up to me (which with her I’m so mad face that wasn’t great) and asked if I’m a lesbian. Being young and afraid of this big bad word that was an insult I said no! I just liked this One Girl, I still liked boys. Turns out the girl not only told the whole team and all their parents had been harassing my mom all day. She looked at me, asked if I loved volleyball, I said of course I do! She then looked at me and said “Then you’re going to practice tomorrow, fuck ‘em”. That was my last (? or second to last) season on the court. I regret not looking for another team to this day. I can’t tell you how many couples want to bring me in their bed for their pleasure, Or you turn down some guy at the bar and they take it as a challenge and maybe they can now have two girls instead of one. It’s dehumanizing and gross. Being queer has always held me apart from most. Being known is truly difficult.
One of my mutuals on another platform posted the quote at the top this week, and I have some mixed feelings about it. To Clarify the feelings are not about my mutual but the quote itself that was posted on twitter. (I found it on their page and quoted it word for word but I’m horrible with links so if you want to see it I’ll do my best or just search it I guess lol.) This person is someone I hold a lot of respect for in my community. They are a transperson, are very visible as a transperson with their partners. With the dangerous conditions in America right now for our community, transpeople especially, trans poly people even more so. The strength to follow the heart when things are tough, persevering, it is irreplaceable. It did get me thinking though, and I have a lot of questions. What does it even mean to be visibly queer? Is there a definition? Is it a box to check off to feel “included”? 
To Me: For pride month it’s important to support the things you believe in, for yourself and others. Sharing individual and personal struggles to bring awareness and education during this month is great! I always learn so much this time of year. I will say this though, I don’t like such generalized statements. This quote is fine for specific groups, but doesn’t always apply to the community as a whole and I hope I can properly articulate why I think this. First queer people are diverse! A lot of people in the community ‘pass’ as cisgendered heterosexual couples but could be bi or pan or ace (or closeted). The other thing that comes to mind is you could be single! I am! and maybe that is why this bothered me so much, both of these apply to me. I am nonbinary and have been told and done my own research to tentatively know I am technically part of the transcommunity although I never felt I truly “count” whatever that means, and would not label myself that way, the statement felt almost criticizing??... I’m not sure. I’m as plain jane as they come. Dark long hair, nail appointments and feminine clothes are being reincorporated into my space from what I couldn’t explore in childhood. I do pass as cis. and I know how important those kinda statements are so I’m not saying it’s inherently wrong.... I guess what I’m trying to say to you and myself is you don’t have to be visible to count. We all have different challenges and what I experience will be different from you. I want to use this post to personally recognize the groups that may get overlooked or receive a not so warm welcome because we all know our own commuity can be very exclusive. Bi, poly, ace and pan people get flack from both sides, straight and queer a like. Maybe that’s why it’s taken me two days to get this out on a page. During these trying times I believe we must speak out for others, not just ourselves. We are here, We are Queer, We are united. No one gets left behind. We must strive to be open-minded and curious to our differences. If you got this far thank you for taking the time to read this. Happy Pride Month my friends!

Berry I'm begging you on my knees, next time you make an au PLEASE mention their relationship! I love your art, I love your art style so much im ready to print it on a cake and eat it, I love your storytelling about your aus, but I would rather eat glass than ship them so i tend to be cautious about aus, and I have been here since when you first posted about rlgl and them called celestial twins gave me a green light on them being brothers. It's OKAY!! Mistakes happen and it's okay! Just for the next time, Please mention their relationship beforehand.(or at least if they're a couple or not) (And, maybe you should change celestial twins? Maybe celestial duo or something, so people won't get confused/misunderstand)
I'm so sorry I'm making this a big deal I'm not sure myself why I'm upset about something silly like this
Ah no its fine, if this is something that is important to you its understandable that you get upset! I am really sorry that this oversight of mine upset you like that. I hope though that you can still enjoy the other aus but if this made you uncomfortable with my blog or something that is understandable too.
I will try to mention the kind of their relationships early on if i make any new aus.
Though i am not sure if i wanna change them being called celestial twins at work? Because it just kinda feels like thats something faz. co would do. Though maybe i could make it a poll asking if you guys are uncomfortable with it and if enough people are uncomfortable i would change it.

I've been thinking about the whole 'Who is Tech Support John texting?' thing and how Lily said she thinks it's between the author who gave him his second duck or the rainbow bridge lady and there have been hints to either with John testing a scenario and visiting the bridge a few times and honestly? I would love it if the answer was that it's both of them. Hell's Belles hasn't had much poly rep and while I think John might not be the best fit since he seems to still get used to being close to people in general, I think he would be able to navigate that since he's very direct. We'll see of course but I think he deserves two nice ladies as his partners 😉

#from kile#vi feel like vi shouldn't call vyself gray-aroace anymore#not because vi don't connect with the term. vi absolutely do connect with the term and it just Clicks in a way that other terms dont#but every post vi see says ''aroaces dont feel love'' ''aroaces dont ever want relationships'' ''all aroaces have 38034083480 qpps and HATE#and DESPISE all allos and any normal relationships'' and similar stuff#and like vi absolutely support people who dont want romantic/sexual/normative relationships! if you dont feel love then thats awesome!#one of vy best friends is a loveless aro who doesnt want any romantic relationships and vi think ze's amazing for that#vi think amatonormativity is stupid and dumb and nobody should be forced to conform to any standards of ''your relationship has to be like#this!''#but vi just. dont feel like vi should be in the community. vi feel romantic love and vi am in an at least semi-normative mono relationship#vi dont hate allos or relate to even most of the ''all aspecs relate to this'' posts or want to be poly or hate all romance or any of the#other things that are defining features of the aspec community. vi feel stupid and privileged and like vi dont belong here and vi feel like#vi'm taking away their safe spaces by being here because vi'm not aspec enough and vi don't share their hatred for romance/love and vi'm#basically the amatonormative person that theyre all supposed to be fighting against because vi'm just so extremely not aspec. if you ignore#the fact that vi dont feel attraction very often then vi'm literally just another 100% allo person. vi dont belong in aspec communities and#vi'm afraid that vi'm hurting people by being here because vi'm not really aspec enough. vi cant really put into words exactly why vi have#this uncomfortable lonely hated feeling?? vi cant even describe the feeling well its just. every time people talk about ''omggggg allos do#this and aspecs do that'' vi relate to both of them but usually vi relate to allos more because its always like. ''allos need relationships#and aspecs dont lol we're so much better and cooler aren't they sick freaks for wanting love and romance wow how childish and gross''#and vi just feel. so alone

#Most secret royal advisor || OOC#(( tbf tho in ravi's case#(( she would kiiiiinda have weird feelings about forming a poly relationship#(( just from where she is Right Now#(( like miranda is still poly ofc#(( and it would likely still be on the table in the future#(( (when shit is more settled and they can start on all the domestic stuff that they want to)#(( just because...... well shes kinda having everything about her life ripped up at the moment!#(( she's finally admitting she doesnt want to rule! that daddy hurts her a lot and she maybe does want him to die!#(( that the merkingdom ISNT perfect and actually she WOULD like to maybe fuck it up!!!!#(( hell she's finally even just. SAID some of the really deep problems that she's constantly dealing with#(( and just wont admit to herself#(( hell right now she is STILL mid-HUGE FUCKING FIGHT with bellanda#(( and dealing with the single person who shes wholeheartedly trusted all her life holding SERIOUS secrets from her#(( and just. her own past starting to come to light and be revealed to her.#(( and i think where she is with aaravi At The Moment.#(( it would just be too much yaknow?#(( its not that she doesnt want to or isnt okay with it its just then is a REALLY bad time#(( like ive said before she needs a LOT of emotional support and people to look out for her#(( for when the floor starts falling apart underneath her and her denial stops protecting her#(( and adding navigating a new person in that relationship wouldnt help#(( see also: miranda is REALLY used to other royals trying to downplay her and ravi's relationship#(( because they view her as an Outsider and basically just a weird pet they REALLY want out of the way but cant get out of the way#(( so she is. a little touchy on that front right now just because she's dealing with Bullshit.#(( she kinda just wants to have Wife Time for a while before thinking about someone else adding to that
