i absolutely cannot believe people are trying to start discourse about whether nex benedict was actually nonbinary / whether it was okay for him to describe himself as nonbinary to some people if he didnโ€™t actually identify that way as if he isnโ€™t literally DEAD because he was KILLED. this is a MURDERED CHILD and these monsters are so busy getting mad at the possibility that he might have been a trans boy who described himself as nonbinary to his family because that was easier for them to take that theyโ€™re turning a CHILD who was MURDERED into fucking discourse. even when we die at the hands of cis peopleโ€™s violence, our own community finds a way to make us the villains of the story.
and all of this bullshit on top of the ways that cis people are already trying to say our grief over his death is unjustified. all of this on top of people claiming he wasnโ€™t murdered and speculating on other causes of death (i literally saw someone say he โ€œclearly went home and took the cowardโ€™s way outโ€ and i have never been more disgusted) or claiming that he started the fight as if any action on his part couldโ€™ve been enough to justify his death. i am haunted by the sound of his father screaming that his child was not filth because that is what people have been saying about this poor kid, thatโ€™s how cruelly his memory is being treated, and even the trans community canโ€™t get itโ€™s shit together enough to look past the stupid discourse and see the tragedy in front of us. did you all forget that it was supposed to be up to us to grieve him in the way he deserves when the rest of the world fails to care if people like him live or die? did you all forget that this child was our sibling, the future of our community, a life that we should have had the chance to know and treasure while he was still here but that we now have a responsibility to hold close to our hearts in his absence? nexโ€™s life was precious and it was ended far too soon and if you truly believe that anything is more important than mourning his life and fighting for a world where no more trans people have to meet such an awful fate, youโ€™re a traitor to this community and you do not deserve the place you occupy within it.
iโ€™m so tired. i canโ€™t even imagine how tired his family must be, to see the public treat the child theyโ€™re grieving so horribly, to see the world fail their baby again. leave him alone. he was already robbed of peace in life; the least you can do is let him finally have it in death.

It's so frustrating to see people purposefully misunderstand transandrophobia/transmisandry and then very confidently talk disparagingly about the people who talk about their experiences of it and then blatantly ignore everyone going "hey yeah no that's not what that means"
Like. Devon price trying to frame it like people who talk about transandrophobia are doing so firstly because they're just ignorant misogynistic babies who want to be oppressed so bad and also to try and drive a wedge between transmascs and transfemmes is so fucking disingenuous I don't even know where to start.
We're literally just trying to talk about the experiences transmasculine people have and the institutional problems specific to us? Why is this such a fucking problem?
Its painfully obvious that the people who make these posts do not ever actually engage with the discussion of anti-transmasculinity & the wider transunitist-feminist theories. Its embarassingly obvious in this case because Devon tried to make this sick gotcha, by bringing up one of the most common topics of conversation in our spaces.
And then there's the whole "TMRAs don't realize most of what they deal with is misogyny!" take, which I've seen in other places as well. Which imo comes from the idea that people who discuss transmisandry are literally just the trans version of MRAs. & the MRA idea of "misandry" is just a reversal of their idea of feminist theory- so they use it to describe "actually society is based around women's needs and desires and it targets (cis) men and we actually live in a matriarchy!" While the transunitist concept of misandry/antimasculism is "patriarchal beliefs about men/masculinity & the roles they are expected to fulfill, used both generally to reinforce patriarcharal control and specifically to target marginalized men/perceived-masculine people." I coined antimasculism specifically to provide an alternate to misandry for those who are uncomfortable with it because of the MRA associations.
& like. whether or not you agree that these are useful words, its obvious that the transunitist idea of misandry/antimasculism is very different to the MRA one. But to know that you'd have to actually, like, read the things we write & take seriously to our theories on the patriarchy. And not just trust Tumblr Callout For Evil Trans People #3245853723 that said we don't think misogyny exists.
Also tbh I think a bigger part of this issue (transmascs who are anti-transunitist) is that its a symptom of anti-transmasculine erasure. If you don't personally experience, assault, demonization, or accusations of being a predator for being a trans man, and no one you know has either, then... you certainly aren't gonna hear about those issues from wider society. And even if you have, you might not recognize what happened as anti-transmasculine, or tell yourself it must be only a fraction of what trans women go through. & again, they don't fucking read anything we post. That's why I feel like its so important to point out & remember incidents of anti-transmasculinity (like what I do w the AoVaTP). Because its so easy to buy the "people don't violate trans men the same way" until you've read about (tw for somewhat graphic anti-transmasculine violence)
trans men getting their faces cut off, beaten with a chain, thrown out of men and women's bathrooms, hit over the head with a cooler, having their shelter at a refugee camp firebombed, having hot coffee poured in their eyes while being called a "he-she", institutionalized & tortured for not showing "proper gender behaviors" as a child, having their family burn their documents to keep them from getting a job, forced to jump from a 2nd-story window and left to die, being harassed by Fox News for being a "groomer" until their school got bomb threats, held captive and tortured for two years, found dead with their genitals stabbed, assaulted by a police officer for "lesbian activity", called "tranny" a lot, and so many rapes and so many suicides, and this is just some of the shit that I have collected for that archive.
But yeah. We're just whining about silly representation nonsense.

Saw a Reddit post about a cis woman infantilizing trans men, and this is why I think cis women are THE most annoying version of transphobia in the world. Like yeah a cis man will tell you "kys tranny" but he's not very well going to take the time to psychologically torture you for the heck of it by treating you like you are exactly [three] years old.
#im sorry but cis women are so much more likely to be really fucking weird to trans people#i cannot stand them#tw suibaiting#mentioned#transphobes#infantilization#transandrophobia#bite kill maim#look im not a misogynist BUT i dont trust women for shit#they are literally taught never to talk straight at people which results in some of the most convoluted psychological warfare ever#also on one side there's transphobic misogynists on the other side there's terfs#and very few women i've met cis OR trans have been normal about trans men and transmasculine people#even the tumblr trans community is chock full of either trans women telling us we're oppressing them and also us being hated doesn't matter#and spouting transandrophobic bullshit#but the cis women 'allies' who are like 'i know trans guys i have a trans friend who most definitely isnt scared to tell me off for my#fucked up behaviour'#the thing is this is very much how women bully other women so actually#newsflash#transmascs are not 'tme' and literally all fucking trans people are endangered by transmisogyny#some of you gals just have a superiority complex about it bc you want to have someone to look down on#almost every man I've met who is not old as hell or a borderline nazi is just. normal about it.#if a woman is too interested in your transness? run for the fucking hills#no she most probably won't physically attack you but she will try her damnedest to psychologically ruin you#not sorry if i come off as an asshole#these people are WAY too comfortable making us uncomfortable#i have had it up to here#if anyone tries to infantilize me for any reason i will scare them till they beg ME to leave them alone#idk how other people tolerate it but i sure as hell won't#and i am absolutely not above hitting a woman if she's touching me against my will#you want to baby me and constantly touch me and shit you are getting slapped into sunday

JANUARY, 1995
Itโ€™s a shooting day and Deanโ€™s ears are ringing with the pop of the .22 thatโ€™s growing heavy in his hands. At Bobbyโ€™s house he always has to wear earmuffs when he shoots; usually Dean complains because they look stupid, but right now his ears are so frozen heโ€™s wishing he had a pair of his own.
He points the muzzle at the ground and shakes his head out, cupping a stiff hand to his cheek. Thereโ€™s exactly zero blood flow happening in his face, and the cold makes each shot ring out so loudly he has to try not to flinch. And his socks are wet. Pretty miserable shit.
Johnโ€™s on his way back from replacing the target, face grim.
โ€œHowโ€™d I do?โ€ Dean calls. Too loud, judging from the way his dad scowls.
โ€œYouโ€™re blowing through ammo and you only got six on the page.โ€
Dean slumps. โ€œCrap.โ€
โ€œYeah, it is. You need to get your shit together, I can tell your heart isnโ€™t in this. You reload yet?โ€
Dean sniffles, even though he canโ€™t feel his nose, either. โ€œNo.โ€
โ€œNo?โ€
โ€œNo, sir.โ€
โ€œSo get going. Show me you can do better.โ€
Deanโ€™s fingers feel like ten useless icicles. He slides the chamber open and clink-clink-clinks ten bullets inside, then carefully closes the action. The Beretta is a testy bitch that jams constantly. Dad only trusts it for training and seems likely to chuck it soon.
He barely seems affected by the chill. Mostly he looks bored. โ€œGo on and take a few steps forward. Ladiesโ€™ tee until you get โ€˜em all on the page, and then weโ€™ll think about moving you back again.โ€
Deanโ€™s skin crawls with embarrassment and he wants to protestโ€”he could do better if it were warmer and if he werenโ€™t so tired alreadyโ€”but obediently he moves closer to the target.
โ€œAlright.โ€
He raises the gun and clicks the safety off. Heโ€™s probably more cautious with it than John cares, but heโ€™d rather be safe than sorry.
The target is a sheet of paper with orange circles pinned to a stump surrounded by casings. He lines the center up in his sight and then aims a little lower to compensate because the Beretta shoots high. God, if Dean could get his hands on that ivory-grip Colt, heโ€™d die happy.
He empties her out, gets about nine bullets on the page. Four of them land tight in the center. The stray shot is only because he overcorrected his aim at first.
He turns back to his dad with a grin on his face, feeling pretty proud. Thereโ€™s a pleasant buzz of warm feeling in his nose and eartips along with the ringing in his ears as he traipses back to the ammo box. โ€œNot so crappy, huh?โ€
John shakes his head. โ€œDunno where you learned to be such a brag.โ€
โ€œWhat am I supposed to be, humble? Pass.โ€ He squats by the box, breathing on his numb hands before delicately picking up the bullets. โ€œHard pass.โ€
โ€œBeing humble is what keeps you alive. Nine out of ten only seems good on a target that doesnโ€™t move. It isnโ€™t your bestโ€”or it shouldnโ€™t be.โ€ Johnโ€™s silence is as unforgiving as his voice. Dean watches his words sink through the winter air like smoke.โ€œWe stay here until you can actually hit what youโ€™re aiming at.โ€
Through no fault of his own, Deanโ€™s mouth is suddenly letting loose the complaint heโ€™s been trying to hold in. โ€œCome on, give me a break, Dad. Itโ€™s freezing, and Iโ€™m tired, and Iโ€™m about to have frostbite on my carpal tunnel. I feel like I can barely pull the damn trigger!โ€
His fatherโ€™s boots crush against the frozen ground louder than a gun. He looks up quickly, stomach dropping. Dad and his rifle make a stark silhouette against the cold white sky above.
โ€œYou donโ€™t ever speak to me like that again. You sound like your brother, like some insolent child, not a man Iโ€™d trust with my weapon. I know I taught you better than this. When lives depend on you, are you still gonna be making excuses? Are you gonna be whining about the weather when itโ€™s your bad aim that gets somebody killed? Is it gonna be the triggerโ€™s fault when you get yourself killed?โ€
โ€œNo, sir,โ€ Dean replies, heart beating in his throat.
โ€œYouโ€™re laughing, youโ€™re fucking around, I can see youโ€™re not taking this seriously. You still donโ€™t understand the stakes. Think about Samโ€”you know whose fault itโ€™ll be if you canโ€™t take care of him or the lives you say you want to protect?โ€
โ€œMy fault, sir. Dad, Iโ€™m sorry.โ€
โ€œDonโ€™t say sorry. Donโ€™t be begging for respect when you havenโ€™t earned it. The only reason weโ€™re still out here is you. You being cold and tired right now is on you. This is all in your control. Your life is in your own hands, nobody elseโ€™s. Do you understand that?โ€
His eyes are so heavy.
Dean nods and looks down, unable to speak. He is so stupid.
The dry air is hurting his head; he wonโ€™t be surprised if they get back to the cabin and find Sam with a bloody nose. Kidโ€™s got a fragile sinus. The sooner Dean makes this, the sooner they can get back. He loads fast.
โ€œSam told me that you went hunting,โ€ John says, tone slipping back to conversational.
โ€œYeah,โ€ Dean says, grateful as he slides the clip home. โ€œBobby showed us how to do animal calls.โ€
โ€œBeing able to hunt and eat what youโ€™ve killed is important. For when you have to keep yourself fed, but for building character, too. A hunter should be able to hunt.โ€
โ€œAnd fish,โ€ Dean adds. โ€œHey, we should go again soon.โ€
John nods, the barest hint of warmth. โ€œMy point is, everything you need to survive should be in your power. Your gun is your second most important tool after grit. Even when you wonโ€™t know if you will survive, you have to know that you can survive.โ€
Dean nods, and after a few seconds of silence, he supplies, โ€œBobby makes good venison chili.โ€ He doesnโ€™t mention that Bobby specifically said John was not invited to any of his suppers.
โ€œYou get one?โ€ John asks. โ€œA deer?โ€
Dean stands slowly, thumbing the safety. He doesnโ€™t click it off, yet, and he keeps it pointed at the ground. Like Bobby keeps cussing him out about. โ€œNot yet.โ€
โ€œWhy not?โ€
Deanโ€™s mouth is sour, the pit in his stomach is growing again, and somehow heโ€™s sweating. John sounds like he knows the answer why.
Dean clicks the safety off and Dad doesnโ€™t even look twice, just waits. Dean walks back to his spot and gets into position. Behind him, John sighs. He sounds so tired.
โ€œIf you canโ€™t even kill a deer, how do you think youโ€™re gonna be able to shoot things that look human?โ€
Dean aims at the target and tries to breathe. The freeze is in his lungs, now, Januaryโ€™s teeth seizing his insides so every inhale is sharp. The target wavers in his sight as he tries to keep his hands still. Itโ€™s just an orange circle. Just a tree stump. Just practice, so heโ€™s fine.
He exhales slowly, finger curling around the trigger. Heโ€™s fine and heโ€™s got this.
โ€œI mean, what am I supposed to think, Deanna,โ€ John says lowly, voice pinched with disappointment, โ€œyou tell me you want me to treat you like a man, but you canโ€™t evenโ€”โ€
Dean fires, ten rounds in steady, thundering succession until the ringing in his ears drowns out the sound of the chamber clicking empty.
The target is in tatters. He thinks they all landed.
His chest is still tight, and raw, and like maybe something has shaken loose or broken free. With shaking hands, he zips up his jacket, and then he turns and walks to his fatherโ€™s side.
โ€œItโ€™s Dean,โ€ he says thinly. He clears his throat and adds, โ€œSir.โ€
Johnโ€™s looking at him and Dean canโ€™t make out whatโ€™s going on behind his eyes. After a moment he nods, and then jerks his head toward their gear. โ€œPack up.โ€
As Deanโ€™s cleaning upโ€”collecting fallen casings and discarded targets, and making sure every gun is unloaded and every safety is on because Sam always pokes around even when they tell him not toโ€”John claps him on the shoulder. His voice is soft again.
โ€œIโ€™m just worried about you, I need you to know that. I want you to be able to take care of yourself and Sammy when Iโ€™m not around. This world is mean, and cold, and itโ€™ll tear you apart. I can be hard on you kidsโ€ฆI push you too hard, I know it, and it still wonโ€™t be enough to keep you safe. And that kills me.โ€
John cups the back of his head. Dean meets his eyes and sees a world in there that he canโ€™t begin to fathom. โ€œYou did good today, Dean, really good. I donโ€™t want you to think I have any doubtsโ€”about how strong you are, and how brave. And I trust I can depend on you, son.โ€
Somewhere inside Dean, a knot loosens, like heโ€™s finally been allowed to breathe a little. Itโ€™s good.

Hmm. Something that I don't see talked enough about is how transgender the begining of kill all your friends by my chemical romance is. I'm gonna talk about it now.
so. I'm not gonna use any context from the rest of the black parade, or the story at all, this is just 100% me thinking too hard about songs and things.
(oh, also, there will be mentions of transphobia.)
"well, you can hide a lot about yourself But honey, what're you gonna do?"
this line I interpret in a couple ways. dysphoria, or trying to stay closeted. For dysphoria it's more of a physical thing. You're hiding your physical body. All the things about your appearance that don't fit with what you want. Or trying to stay closeted? You're hiding who you are.
"And you can sleep in a coffin But the past ain't through with you"
this one I interpret as your past as your AGAB. It takes a lot to transition, so throughout the whole process there's a lot that reminds you of if. An "F" or "M" on a driver's license. Old pictures. Old memories. Even transphobic relatives.
"'Cause we are all a bunch of liars Tell me, baby, who do you wanna be?"
I've been waiting to get to this one. It's my favorite part of the whole song.
"'Cause we are all a bunch of liars" there are three ways I like to interpret this. 1. Being closeted. 2. Imposter syndrome. 3. Internalized transphobia.
so being closeted. It can sometimes feel like you're lying about who you are to almost everyone around you.
Imposter syndrome. You worry that you're not really trans. That you're faking it for whatever reason. That your dysphoria isn't real, or that it's not enough to really be trans, and that "real" trans people have it worse.
Internalized transphobia. you feel like being trans is lying to everyone about who you are.
"Tell me, baby, who do you wanna be?" this one I like to think is someone decided to live as themself. As who they are.
"And we are all about to sell it 'Cause it's tragic with a capital T"
now this doesn't feel as trans to me specifically as the rest of this verse does, but it could very well be the media or something taking a trans person's story and using it for money or fame or something.
And as like a little bonus,
"'Cause we all want a party when the funeral ends"
Something I unfortunately see a lot with trans people, is their transphobic relatives saying that they feel like the person they knew died when they transitioned. So. Let them have a funeral, and you party with your friends, your family, who love you for who you are.
"And we all get together when we bury our friends"
I just like the idea of this being mocking twords the transphobic relatives. I think it's funny. Pointing out how they feel like you're dead when you're literally just right there.
Anyway. Those are just my silly little thoughts on it. I just really like this song.

Warnings: Innuendo (mentioned) Sex (mentioned only), Creep (mentioned), Caps, Cursing, Death (mentioned only), Vomitting (mentioned only), let me know if I should add anything else.
Chapter 3: The Horrors
3:40am
Why Is This My Family?
Blood Moon: Why are both Mama and Dad and Peepawโ€™s rooms making loud noises?
Harvest Moon: Hey, @Moon, can we come over and visit? Maybe help with Plex patrol even?
Moon: Yeah, sure come on little ducklings.
Solar Flare: Thank you, my god that was awkward.
Moon: Why not just bang on the walls and tell them to keep it down?
Harvest Moon: Because that might involve telling Blood Moon what theyโ€™re doing.
Solar Flare: Yeah, and Blood Moon is the only one left with some kinda innocence and we donโ€™t want to get rid of whatโ€™s left of it.
Moon: Makes sense. Just donโ€™t go in Lunarโ€™s room. He has Mini over. Mini is getting the railing of a lifetime.
Harvest Moon: Are all of you adults just sinners?
Moon: No, Iโ€™m asexual.
Solar Flare: No, you just commit crimes instead.
Moon: You got me there. But still. Sunny literally went out for ice cream and hasnโ€™t come back for three hours now since I started my patrol. Itโ€™s quite funny, honestly.
Lunar: Weโ€™ve been done for a half hour, idiots.
Blood Moon: Done with what?
Lunar: Making loud noises. Yeah, itโ€™s a game to see how loud you can be and Mini was winning. We played for two and a half hours and Mini still won.
Blood Moon: Ooh, is that the game Mama and Dad and Peepaw and Freddy are playing?
Moon: โ€ฆYes.
Sun: Wait, I can come home now without hearing the sound of the unholy?
Lunar: Yes, Sun.
Sun: Finally, I can stop hiding in Gator Golf.
Moon: Why are you bugging Monty? Are you two dating in secret or something?
Sun: What? No! Never! Monty and I are friends and he let me crash here to avoid Lunar and Mini Music Manโ€™s unholiness. If anyone, Iโ€™m interested in Foxy.
Moon: You mean the guy who hit on me? That ancient little fleabag?
Sun: The very same.
Moon: Okay, who replaced Sun with a copy thatโ€™s completely lost its mind?
Lunar: Not it, I was busy.
Sun: Come on, his memory got reset, he doesnโ€™t even remember hitting on you. And the new suit he got makes him much less of an โ€˜ancient little fleabagโ€™.
Moon: I hate this family and I hate existing.
Harvest Moon: At least youโ€™ve got your three ducklings free of sin, Uncle Moon.
Moon: Yeah fine, Iโ€™ll live for the ducklings.
Blood Moon: Can I be the cute duckling with a pink bow on my head?
Moon: Yeah, kid, weโ€™ll get you a pink bow for your hair.
Sun: I have a box full of bows, cโ€™mere kid.
Moon: Sun, that is the most creepy sentence you have ever written and I was there when you said โ€˜who wants candy until your parents come for pickupโ€™. Please rethink your grammar choices.
Sun: LISTEN
Moon: NO
Sun: Iโ€™m allowed to spoil my grand-niece!
Moon: Not at the cost of sounding like a creepy uncle at a barbecue!
Blood Moon: Uncle Sunny, Iโ€™m here. Can I have my bow?
Sun: Yes, Blood Moon. I have a pretty pink one.
Sun: bloodmoonwithabowinherhair.jpg
Sun: Sending her back to you, Mama Duck Moon.
Moon: Hate that. Thanks.
Blood Moon: I GOT A BOW!
Solar Flare: Itโ€™s very pretty, sister.
Harvest Moon: You look adorable, twin.
Lunar: Ya look cute.
6:48am
Why Is This My Family?
Moon: @Eclipse @Polar I kidnapped your kids. This is a random note. I require coffee and bagels in exchange for the safe return of your kids that are all sleeping on me.
Eclipse: Oh shit.
Polar: Yeah, yeah, weโ€™ll be over in an hour to collect the kids.
Kill Code: Oh my god, we scared the kids out of the house!
Lunar: Yeaaaaaah hearing your Mom and Grandpa getting railed does that. Theyโ€™re safe, Iโ€™m currently taking pictures of Moon being trapped under your kids.
Eclipse: My god, theyโ€™re gonna need therapy.
Polar: We have attained coffee and bagels. Weโ€™re on our way up.
Kill Code: Iโ€™m on my way too.
Moon: Good, Iโ€™m getting lethargic you being out of my body so long.
Kill Code: Iโ€™m sorry!
Moon: Finally, hate you.
Kill Code: Listen, I forgot I wasnโ€™t supposed to fall asleep! I was tired! I had my back blown out!
Moon: I donโ€™t want to know this information.
Sun: Yโ€™all are cursed. Your whole family is cursed. The adults at least.
Polar: I have acquired my daughter and sons, thatโ€™s all I care about.
2:25pm
Why Is This My Family?
Lunar: mynamespeteandilikejugsimmentallyillandimondrugs.gif
Moon: Lunar, that is so random, what?
Lunar: My therapist said I have something called โ€˜hd tvโ€™.
Moon: โ€ฆ
Moon: You mean โ€˜adhdโ€™?
Lunar: Yes, thatโ€™s the word! See, I wasnโ€™t listening to Dr. Sheph again, I was zoning out thinking about the Saw movies again.
Moon: Lunar?
Lunar: Yes?
Moon: Listen to Dr. Sheph.
Lunar: Aw. Fine. But Iโ€™m still gonna talk about Saw during my therapy sessions and he canโ€™t do nothing about it!
Moon: *long deep sigh*
Sun: Did you just really type out โ€˜long deep sighโ€™?
Moon: Yes, Sun, yes I did.
Sun: Alrighty then.
Eclipse: Hey samesies on the ADHD.
Lunar: I am now denouncing having ADHD.
Eclipse: Oh, come on!
Lunar: Nu-uh, donโ€™t wanna bond with you over ANYTHING be happy Iโ€™m talking in a chatroom where you are.
Eclipse: Not even if I wanted to watch the Saw movies with you?
Lunar: โ€ฆ
Lunar: Iโ€™m bringing over my disk set of all ten movies, you better set up fast, you discount soggy Dorito chip. This will take 16 hours and 11 minutes minimum with no pauses.
Eclipse: Getting everything ready. Polar, GET OUT!
Polar: Iโ€™ve been evicted in favor of gore movies.
Lunar: You can join if you want.
Polar: Nah. I donโ€™t handle gore well.
Lunar: Then yeah, stay the fuck out.
Polar: Guess Iโ€™m stealing the guest room tonight then.
Moon: Youโ€™re weird, Polar.
Lunar: Donโ€™t make it sound like you didnโ€™t puke watching them the first time.
Moon: Listen! Some of them got me yeah. Especially Valentina. And Joyce.
Lunar: You better shut up about Valentina and Joyce before I shut you up. No spoiling Eclipse!
Eclipse: I have no clue who those people are, Iโ€™m just happy to spend time and bond with you over ADHD.
Lunar: โ€ฆIโ€™ve been bamboozled by my hyperfixation into *gag* spending time with you.
Eclipse: Weโ€™ll you canโ€™t leave now, the first movieโ€™s already playing and you said youโ€™d show me the movies.
Lunar: Alas.
6:41am
Why Is This My Family?
Moon: Sooooooo
Moon: How did bonding goooooo?
Eclipse: New hyperfixation! New hyperfixation!
Lunar: It was nice watching the movies again with someone who doesnโ€™t throw up watching them.
Moon: Listen, Iโ€™ve apologized seven times now for throwing up on you during the Valentina scene. Iโ€™m sorry! At least we werenโ€™t in a theater and I cleaned it up!

I shared my (and my friend's ocs) that are related to PK SO-
This is A LOT and I'm kinda embarrassed but I'll fucking "cringe culture is dead" through life or so help me GOD
I like imagining backstories for characters and making cool little nonsensical and completely self-indulgent AUs
(Also for the few people subscribed to my patreon there's more stuff after what I've posted there, just scroll a bit down ๐Ÿ‘)
F9r the record I also mangled mine and @demonicintegrity 's thoughts and ideas into one post so it's somewhat comprehensible but jsyk they contributed a lot
An AU where Adamas has her last clutch in her small form
As a refresher Amanita is White Lady's name and Ebur is Pale King's name. Adamas is Pale King's mother, though wyrms use dame and sire for their parents so that's what he calls her. I am yet to properly share Quercus but he's WL's father. Flower is my name for the Pure Vessel in this AU, Hallow is their birth name. Amaryllis is an oc, they're Flower's twin. Any other names that appear here are PK's siblings.
Also using they/it for Ebur and the rest of the family bc as wyrms they don't really have genders
Ebur and Amanita meeting while Ebur's family is travelling and Amanita still lives at the edge of her father's territory and her root system is connected with his but she's getting ready to leave hopefully in just one or two years when she's gathered enough strength and the spring's kind and abundant
Adamas' little group settles near her groove since it's brimming with life and there's not many people to get in the way or compete over resources with aside from the occasional traveller or two, and Amanita tolerates their presence for now, they give her something to do since her father is quite busy with his new seedlings now that she's grown and she doesn't have much company or things to do other than to listen to the occasional mortal passing by and watch the nature, so this small group of wyrms that's mostly composed of ones not much younger than her with all the hubris and boldness of young wyrms is the most interesting thing that's happened to her in a while
Some of them would probably push too far before Adamas had to smack them upside the head and reprimand them for ever thinking about taking over this territory, after all they're really on the larger territory of an ancient God, and even though Roots aren't known to be the most attentive of parents she still doesn't want to tempt fate and check if this one is the same by attacking his daughter
Either way, Amanita notices the younger wyrm isn't quite like the others and seems very intrigued by him
Although their first in face meeting wasn't the best, with her attacking him and managing to stab him in the ribs (you bet your ass Adamas chewed out his ass when he returned to their densite all bloody and holding his side), he kept returning to study her
Seems they both found each other intriguing
And eventually they get to talking, Ebur seemed excited to meet the first rootfolk in his life and actually to get to talk to her, he asks so many questions and she's amused with his curiosity, and eventually actually grows curious about the wyrms (and especially him) herself and asks him things in turn
They grow into unlikely friends though there's definitely more to it but neither is willing to acknowledge it yet
He often sneaks away from his family just to talk to her, and eventually they start sneaking into the more private parts of her groove with the excuse that they wouldn't want Ebur's family finding out they're friends, both of them just ignoring their glaringly obvious attraction to each other
One time Ebur brought her a kill he made and she hoped to GOD her blush wasn't noticeable (it was, not that he'd know because he was also avoiding eye contact to try and hide his own)
Ebur and the bad bitch he pulled by being autistic ๐Ÿ’œ
The group spends enough time around there for the two idiots to stop dancing around the subject and not only admit to their mutual attraction but to start to fall in love
Enough so that Ebur decides to stay when Adamas decides it's time to move on
At first she was about to talk sense into him about staying permanently in this place but he quickly corrected her
"No, no, it's not like that! I don't want to stay here permanently! I just..." He quieted down and looked away
"...You want to leave?"
"...mh..."
"Are you sure about this? Life as a lone wyrm isn't easy out there in the Wastelands, perhaps it'd be better if you stuck around until we find a suitable territory for you to stay at-"
"No, dame, I- I want to leave now. I think it's time. I love you all and I'll miss you, but...I just...I want to see what's out there for myself. Every year, every day, feels the same now; find some place, stay for a bit and hunt, move on. I- I can't live like this, it feels...suffocating."
"...You were always the curious kind, weren't you? I should have known this routine would bore you eventually," She sighed heavily and approached him, "I always knew this day would come, I just never expected it to be my youngest and smallest wyrmling that leaves the nest first..." She pulled him into a tight hug, "...Stay one last night with us, and if you're still sure about this after tomorrow's hunt I'll leave some supplies for you when we move on."
He smiled and hugged her back, "...Thank you..."
"Just promise me you'll be safe, okay?"
"You taught me well. I'll be alright, I promise."
He spends lots of time with his siblings and mother the next day, maybe Melpomene proposed she could come with since they were always the closest but he reassured her he wanted to be alone
The goodbye is very tearful, even Adamas cries and she's not the type to do that often
Ebur feels a little broken seeing them go, it feels weird being completely alone, strangely quiet too - he usually likes the quiet, but not this time. He goes to hunt to keep his mind off it then that evening he gathers his things and moves them to a densite way closer to his root's (his root, saying that makes him so giddy) and goes to share his kill with her
And that night, for the first time in their lives, he goes to sleep curled up around her amongst her roots. It does help him feel much better about having to say goodbye to his family
He spends the rest of the year in her groove with her - from summer to winter - before she's finally ready to move on next spring and he happily follows her to look for a new home for the both of them
Despite the new normal being hard to get used to at first he was still so unbelievably happy with her
And Quercus was considerably easier to hide their relationship from than his own family, considering they're on the outskirts of his territory and Ebur never saw him in person. As far as Quercus is concerned, Amanita just has a mild wyrm problem that she's handling well on her own
A few different ย things could happen from then on
Could either go canon compliant or pull out one of my fav moves, a cute domestic AU where they don't found Hallownest or do it later down the line after already having children and just live for a while as a happy family
And also the Drama Flavour where Ebur ends up pregnant despite them not trying to, they say fuck it and have them but he gets very sick and she brings him to her father for help, cue him being appalled that she's partners with a wyrm and her telling him to suck a dick and she'll take care of him herself, then they have the worst luck ever after finding a brand new territory and stumble onto Ebur's family, and Adamas has some very strong opinions about him being mates with a root (she doesn't even realise he's expecting otherwise it would have been. Worse). Fucking Romeo and Juliet up in here
For the last idea, I like the idea of Adamas questioning if that root can even provide for him or any possible clutches he might have in the future and he gets so pissed off he bristles, tells her to drop it and he's done with her attitude and to get the fuck off his territory. She bristles and calls him out on being so cocky as to tell her to get out
"If you're so confident then come on, defend your territory! Kick me out yourself!"
"Stop it-"
"Come on, boy! Show me you can actually protect yourself and yours! If you want me out them force me out!"
"I'm not going to fight you, mother!"
"...Tsk, you even talk like her."
"...Just...Just leave...please."
She circles him, "You should know words won't be enough to protect your territory from intruders, and that young root definitely doesn't have it in her to do it. You promised me you'll stay safe, so show me you can actually take care of yourself!"
Instead she gets violently thrown back by a white root after Amanita returns to check up on her hubby <3
Puts herself between them, ready to snap their necks with her roots if she has to
"He told you to leave, so leave. Or should I make you, you old bag?"
"Amanita-"
Of course, it was 25% him not being willing to fight his own mother and 75% him being sick and not willing to risk the pregnancy, but he's not gonna tell her that when she reacted so negatively about him being mates with a root (and his siblings def teased him before the situation got serious)
He's gonna be SO fucking depressed about this later though
But I also just like the idea of them finding the place that would later become Hallownest and founding the kingdom together
Ebur: Babe do you want me to beat up this old slug for you?
Amanita: Oh how romantic~
Unn:(live slug reaction)
Unn: Just take the damn territory and leave me alone, you brats
I also made an entire AU with Integrity where PK moves on with his family with a promise that he'll be back next spring for her, only to realise he's expecting. And I am obsessed with this version, it's cute and domestic (in a wyrm kind of way) and I am sucker for these things.
Ebur leaves with his family, promising to return to her next spring so they can leave together, but what he DIDN'T account for was him getting pregnant
So now he has to think up an idea to sneak away and keep his pregnancy hidden until he's back with her. Very hard to do with his mother around, an old wyrm with decades worth of clutches she's reared into adulthood by herself, she sussed him out embarrassingly quickly
Ebur, trying to sneak out: ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’ฆ
Adamas, like sheโ€™s scolding a teen: where are you going at this hour?
Ebur: โ€ฆ. A walk to clear my head?
Adamas: do you think that excuse worked with your siblings back then?
Ebur: โ€ฆ no
Adamas: do you think itโ€™s gonna work now?
Ebur: โ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆ no
Ebur, quickly thinking of something else: ......hunting...
Adamas: Hunting?
Ebur: Hunting.
Adamas: At midnight? With your white, glowing ass? After we just ate?
Ebur: .........I'm hungry.
Adamas: Uh-huh
Ebur, bristling: Well! I'm a grown wyrm, I can do what I want!
Adamas: Oh can you now?
Ebur: ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’ฆ
Adamas: You're an adult but I'm still this group's leader, including yours
Ebur: Yes, dame. I'm sorry, dame
He does his best to mask his scent and keep his hormones and instincts under control, tries to sleep a little further from the group, is very careful on hunts and starts eating away from them when food aggression starts kicking his ass
One time Adamas finally approached him at meal time, throwing him her portion
"Here, eat up."
He looks at her, confused, "...I...what?"
"Just eat, kid."
He hesitantly takes it and leaves it near as he continues with his portion, "Don't you need to eat also?"
"Eh, I've eaten enough. Besides, I'm not the one who's eating for more than one right now."
"HRK-"
He looks at her, horrified, and she can't help but laugh
"What? You think I haven't noticed? Come on, you could fool your siblings with your excuses but I've had plenty of clutches of my own," She pats him on the shoulder, "Come on, eat up, kid. You need to put some meat on these bones."
He sighs heavily and goes back to eating, red in the face and a little awkward, unable to look her in the eyes as she's just observing him
"...If you copulated around the time of your first heat last spring-"
"HRNK?!"
"Oh, don't be like that, you're not a child anymore. Anyway, your due date should be in winter...not the ideal time to have a clutch, but we could make this work. You'll need to eat a lot if this kid is to have any chance of survival, though," She looked back st him, "...If you want to keep it, that is."
He goes quiet, his tail curling in close, "...I...y-yeah, I do..."
"...Alright, if that's what you want."
"You seem nervous."
"...How- how could I not be? I mean, all of this, it's...it's my first brood, and if they're due in winter..."
She scoots closer to him and wraps her tail around him, "Hey...you're not alone in this, okay? You have your siblings and I, we'll take care of you and your young. It's going to be alright." And she nuzzles him gently
Obviously they figure out the children are part root, but only some time after they're born
At least now Ebur has an excuse to return to her, saying she'd have valuable input on caring for them
That doesn't stop his siblings from teasing him about possibly wanting to see her again and being in love (they're right, but he's not about to admit it)
Also the moment he accidentally let's her name slip he's not gonna hear the end of it
Adama: So you want to return to the groove?
Ebur: Yes. I mean, she taught me a lot about rootfolk, but-
Io: Uh-huh, I bet she did. Close and perso-
Ebur, slapping him with his tail: ...Anyway. She told me a lot, but still, Amanita would kno-
Adustus: YOU KNOW HER NAME?!
Ossum: OHHH, LITTLE LOVERBOY IS ON FIRST NAME BASIS WITH THE ROOT~?
Ebur: You're killing me
God can you imagine what kind of pains in the ass these cunts were when Adamas and Ebur broke the news to them
Constant teasing and asking who it was
Ebur gets no rest
Adamas takes her little shits on a training hunt again
"Why do we need to train anyway? You've taught us how to hunt seasons ago."
"I did, but not with two members down. You need to practice now before your sibling stops being able to join us on hunts."
"...two...?"
"Yes, two. It'll be safer if somebody stays behind with Ebur when he's further along and carrying for his young, so I need to know we'll be able to provide for this family with two hunters down and more mouths to feed."
"...Can't I join your hunts anyway? You hunted by yourself while pregnant, didn't you?"
"I did, but I was also alone, I had no choice. You shouldn't have to choose between your children's safety and finding food. We live as a family for a reason, what would we be but animals if we don't take care of each other? I'm not letting you or your young live like lone nomads when you have us."
They also hunt more since Ebur needs more food, especially later down the line, and if anybody complains she's gonna cut that shit down SO fast
"I don't want to hear it! Ebur and the brood they're carrying are your kin, so start acting like it and have some damn respect. Do you think Ebur would be here complaining if the roles were reversed? Do you think they wouldn't care for you when you need it? We're a family, we take care of each other, in sickness and in health. Your sibling and his children need you. If that's a problem for you, you're free to leave and live as a nomad, but as long as you follow me and are a part of this family I don't want to hear any complaining, got it?"
"...yes, dame. I'm sorry."
"Instead of apologising to me make yourself useful. And treat your siblings kinder, one day you might be the one who needs their help so you better hope your words don't come back to bite you then."
Adamas is a strict parent but very much loves her family and it's so important to her that they take care of each other <3
She's a good mum, if a little bit hard on them at times
Melponeme, loafing in front of Ebur: โ€ฆ.
Ebur: โ€ฆ. What. Go away
Melp: im not touching you
Ebur: what do you want
Melp, loafing, staring: โ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆ.
Ebur: โ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆ
Melp: youโ€™re gettin fat
Ebur: no shit itโ€™s almost like a have a litter growing inside me
Melp, reaching over to poke his stomach:
Ebur, batting: stop that!!!
Melp: how many do you think theyโ€™re gonna be?
Ebur: I dunno
Melp: probably like. A lot of you keep growing at this rate
(And then it's just two. Absolute menace <3 won't give him a break)
Ebur, growling:
Adamas: Dear, if you keep poking at a predator like that it's gonna strike
Melp: Nahhh, they're harmle-
Ebur, pouncing on her:
Melp: !!!
"Don't be too rough with your sibling, they're expecting."
"Oh come on! They started it! They can't keep holding the pregnancy thing over our head constantly!"
Ebur sitting there like >:3
โ€œWell theyโ€™ve got a few more months and then itโ€™s fair gameโ€
"Oh, so you'd beat up a new parent and leave my children orphaned? How cruel"
"I'm not gonna kill you, you maniac?!"
Also once he's much further along he digs himself a separate den and slowly moves in there, it worries his siblings but Adamas assures them it's normal, wyrms prefer to be alone in the first few days before and after giving birth
"Are you sure they're okay? Can't they stay with us?"
"Pff, would you prefer to get growled at and possibly mauled every time you come into your den? They'll be fine, don't worry."
His siblings go out hunting and gathering more often after that and finally give him lots and lots of warm and soft bedding for his new den
"Since you'll sleep alone we thought you and the baby could use some warmer bedding."
And he can't help but smile and wag his tail
Wondering if wyrms would have a word for aunt/uncle and what would it be?? Obviously not auncle, since aunt and uncle aren't wyrm temrs
Currently they don't have any, anybody beyond your parents, siblings and young are just "kin"
Maybe they'd use cousin? (As in. Also use cousin, not a replacement for aunt/uncle. I realised I worded this weird)
Half of this is Ebur's siblings fretting over him and Adamas having to keep them straight and from freaking out KDBDJRB
โ€œGET OUT OF MY DEEENNNNโ€
โ€œOh but we worry about our poor lil sibling!!โ€
โ€œFUCK OOOFFFโ€
Gonna get hissy and pissy and Adamas will just shake her head and say she warned them
โ€œCan we see the babies nowโ€” UAGHโ€
โ€œ-HISSSSS-โ€œ
Glaring at them from the entrance of his den before the babies even arrive
"You're so lucky I'm round and slow right now"
โ€œHehe sphericalโ€
โ€œShut the fuck upโ€
Also been thinking about the delivery. This sounds weird,,
TW for childbirth, pregnancy, etc, and mention of near infant death
Anyway, his siblings would notice he stopped eating, only stays in his den, and would bring it up to Adamas
Her ear just twitches and she looks over at his den, "...Seems the little one will arrive any moment, then."
"Huh?"
"How can you tell?"
"I also stopped eating like two to three days before I had you or any of my previous litters. It's normal. Just give them some space, they're going to be especially irritable now."
Then one night one of them wakes up and immediately wakes the others, as Adamas isn't in the den. They peek out to look for her and find her just sitting nearby and staring at Ebur's den
"...Dame? Why aren't you in the nest?"
"Quiet down. Do you smell that?"
They pause to scent the air
"...blood?"
"...It's been a while," She gets up and dusts herself off, "I'll go check up on your sibling, you keep watch for me. Don't come too near, he's probably stressed as is."
She approaches his den and they see her quietly talking before she disappears inside. They keep watch as promised, though all of them are fidgety and uneasy, pacing and shifting around, trying to chat to pass the timd
After what feels like forever though one of them tells them to shut up for a moment and when they do they can hear very faint cries coming from the den
They wait with held breaths and eventually Adamas stalks out of the den holding bloodied bedding (to a group of nervous wyrms looking at her like ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘, almost makes her laugh)
"...so?"
"So what?"
"Dame, please-"
She snickers, "There's two."
They all seem excited, which makes her smile
"How are they?"
"Ebur is fine. One of the wyrmlings is strong, and the furstborn..." She trails off, swishing her tail, "They'll make it, if they survive this night."
The five visibly deflate at the news
"...Are they gonna...?"
"Only time will tell. Like I said, if they survive this night they should be okay. Don't repeat this to Ebur, though, they've had enough of hardships for one night," She turned to leave, "I'll go burry these sheets. You five, go hunt for your sibling and their young, they're going to need the strength. I'll look after them."
They hurry off, a hunt seems like a good opportunity to blow off some steam
When they return, Adamas shows them how to thinly mince the meat for the the newborns before she delivers the food to Ebur and his kids
That's pretty much the norm for the next few days, Adamas is the only one who he allows into the den so she updates the siblings on the situation and stays with him while they go hunting
The day after, after they made their hunt for the day and Adamas once again disappears into their sibling's den with the food, was probably the most stressful. The five waited for her for what seemed like eternity and immediately pounce on her for info like young wyrmlings the second she's out
"Won't you five calm your tails?! Your sibling and their young are fine."
"And the firstborn?"
"They're doing much better and seem strong. You can stop panicking."
Though they're less intense about this afterwards, everytime Adamas leaves the den she's met with five wyrms staring at her and eagerly awaiting any updates
"Do they have names yet?"
"Ebur said they did pick already, you'll learn them once you meet the younglings"
"UUUUGHHH"
"MAAAAN"
"Stop being dramatic, it's only a few more days"
The five also get an idea to make the twins little clothes so they can stay warm and cosy
They get to gift them to Ebur once they finally meet the little ones
One day, after nearly a week, Adamas leaves the den to see the five wyrms once again waiting on her and she sighs heavily before smiling
"Alright, who wants to meet the babies?"
And they all get SO excited, before she has to remind them to keep calm to not spook their sibling or his kids
They go into the den one by one, which is thankfully big enough for all of them, where Ebur is laying in the corner, curled up around two little sleepy boundless and purring to them
His siblings are just awe struck at the babies and coo to them, showering them and Ebur with so many compliments
"They look a little odd for wyrmlings though, don't they?"
Io proceeds to get very roughly jabbed in the side by Fossor
"Ow, what the hell?!"
"Don't be an ass. Obviously they're not full wyrms, idiot, they're going to look different."
Though none of them is yet to clock that they're half-root
They get the babies thick clothes so they can crawl outside the den (under incredibly strick supervision by all 7 of their family members) once they're big enough
"Ebur, quit grooming them! They won't combust into flames if they have a speck of dirt or snow on them!"
"Mrrrr"
Melpomene: So, how did you name them?
Ebur: The firstborn is Hallow and the second born is Amaryllis
Io: Hm, weird names for wyrms
Ebur: ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ’ฆ
Fossor, readying to hit him again:
Hallow, crawling towards Io with intent to Bite:
Io: Ohhhh little lad on a mission, what will they do? Beware the big bad wyrm
Hallow: Grrrr
Io:*casually just rolls away*
Hallow, flopping down and looking at him offended before SCREAMING angrily to voice their displeasure at inability to bite and maim uncle: EEEAAAAAAAAA
Gonna crawl towards him with even more determination
Adustus: Snrk- Stop giving the poor kid a workout and let them bite you
Io: If they wanna bite me they should prove it by getting me the legitimate way
Adamas: that one has a strong set of lungs
Ebur: mhm
Ebur: ...Was I this loud at their age?
Adamas: Absolutely. The loudest
Ebur: .......oh
Adamas: yeah. oh. Little snot
Ebur: hey!
(Mean to him <3)
Just wait till they figure out the connection between Amaryllis and Amanita
Of course loverboy would name the baby after a flower LMAO
".....snrk"
"shut up. shut up. shut the fuck up. I dont wanna hear it. Shut your bitchass up."
Start teasing him that he is SO smitten and in love
None know just how right they are
He's gonna die or commit murder at this rate
Ebur being all "it's not like that, it's not like that" and then when he sees Amanita again they're all lovey dovey and cute
I think Adamas' group was in the groove for like 2 years so they did have time to develop a meaningful relationship, though it's still nothing compared to how they're gonna be in a few years KFBDJFH
Io: not like that my assโ€”
Ebur: Shut the fuckโ€”
Amanita: :? Not like what my darling?
Adustus: heโ€™s been swearing up and down it isnโ€™t love and he hasnโ€™t totally been courting you
Amanita, amused: aaaww my dear Ebur, so now youโ€™re shy with your affections~?
Ebur, sputtering: Ami, please not in front of my family...
Ossum: AMI
Ebur: I BITE
Ossum: Yeah, I bet ~your Ami~ knows a thing or two about that, huh~?
Ebur: GRRRRR
Amanita, laughing a little: I havenโ€™t heard you growl that loud since we first met my wyrm~!
Ossum: good gods yโ€™all are nauseating
Adamas: Her wyrm, huh?
Ebur: NOT you too
Amanita, not helping as she nuzzles him: My wyrm~
She's having so much fun <3 He can't help but smile though
Ebur: You're...impossible, my darling
Amanita: ๐Ÿฅฐ
Adamas: So, how long have you been together?
Amanita: Officially? Only one year, but we've been courting for much longer than that~
Adamas: Oh, you're official hm? Ebur, you never told me you've found yourself a mate. Look at you growing up on me, my youngest wyrmling has a mate and children already
Ebur: My dame, please
Amanita: ....children?
Adamas: ... you didn't know?
Ebur: Hey i was suppose to surprise her with that dame!
Ebur: Plus, I only found out after I left, not like I could tell her I was-
Amanita, grabbing him: Darling, what's that about children?
Ebur: .... We have two my darling.
Amanita: We have children!?
Ebur: yes. Our...... time together has resulted in me becoming gravid. We have two healthy children
Amanita, shaking him: Show me!!
Ebur, laughing: Well, stop trying to give me whiplash and I will!
(They're so adorable it makes me sick <- Ebur's siblings probably)
Presents her with the two little guys with a big smile. Tells her their names and she kneels down to hold them both and nuzzle and give kisses and be so so emotionally happy about it
The rest of the family give them some privacy so they can have a proper reunion and Amanita can meet her children
She's so SO happy
Scoops all three of them up and nuzzles him, looks at them as if they're her whole world
"Oh, my darling, they're so beautiful, so perfect...I love them..." She whispers, her breath caught in her throat for a moment, "...I love you."
His heart skips a beat and he nuzzles in close and kisses her cheek, "I love you too..."
And the babies are gonna ruin the moment and squeaking in protest about being held <3
"ooohhh my little sprouts, I need to plant you in my den and watch you grow big and strong youre so precious~"
"wait like. Actually bury them??"
"A little yeah. They should be able to root I think"
"...hm!"
"...Unless they're more wyrm in that regard?"
"Well, they seemed to do just fine on meat, but there's no harm in trying other things. Maybe a combination will be best for them?"
"Oh dear..."
"Don't worry, my love, we'll figure it out together"
Theyre rowdy and like to run around and play
but for sleepy time they get to be buried in the dirt. Makes em giggle and keeps them warm
OH the convo between Adamas and his siblings in the meanwhile
Adustus: ...He's gonna leave, isn't he?
Adamas: Hm?
Adustus: I mean, with our group we can't stay anywhere for too long, especially in a small groove like this, we'd run out of prey. And a root wouldn't be able to keep up for long, they're stationary. And...I doubt he'd leave her, just look at them.
Adamas: ...He seems happy. It'd be good for the little ones to have both parents too.
Amanita, planting the babies for the first time:
Quercus, waking her up at ass o'clock after he sensed two new seedlings near her: ๐Ÿ‘€ ๐Ÿ‘€ ๐Ÿ‘€
Amanita: huh wh
Quercus: KIDS?? KIDS?? DO I HAVE GRANDKIDS PRINCESS???
Amanita: pfft. yes.
Amanita:
Amanita, internally: wait shit fuck
Quercus: oh hey that wyrm problem came back. Lemme drop by and see how my daughter is doing since im not busy
What a fucking reunion that would be huh
Adamas: I've heard you want to leave? Maybe you should come with us, then, it'd be easier for you
Amanita: Ah, but would you like to leave now? Because it's already almost the end of spring, I don't think it'd be a good idea for me to leave now, I might not survive winter if I'm not rooted down somewhere by autumn. We were planning to leave early next spring, if you'd like to live in my groove until then you're fully welcome to
Adamas: But what of your parent? Wouldn't they notice?
Amanita: It's alright, he didn't came by last time you were here for over two years, I'm sure it's fine now, he won't even notice ๐Ÿ˜Š (narrator voice he did notice)
"Hey sweetheart how are you.... doing...."
Amanita, with the family of wyrms just hanging out in her den: .......... Daaaadddddddd what a suuurrrppprriiissseee๐Ÿ’ฆ
Her just trying to cover up this fairly large family of wyrms
Adamas getting defensive when Quercus is questioning Amanita
Starts growling and pushes to the front of them
Quercus: Stay out of this, wyrm
Adamas: Like hell I am! I'm not letting you step all over my family or my daughter
Amanita: It's really not nece- daughter??? ๐Ÿฅบ
Quercus: Daughter?!
Adamas: Yes, daughter, she's my child's partner so as much of a family to me as my own children!
Amanita's just trying so fucking hard not to get emotional and cry over this now
too bad Quercus is bristling at that
Amanita and Quercus are emotional over this but in completely opposite directions
Amanita has to get herself together to step between them before it ends in a fight
GOD. I AM SO EMOTIONAL OVER THIS. AMANITA BEING ACCEPTED INTO HIS WYRM FANILY AFTER THEY SEE HOW MUCH SHE AND EBUR LOVE EACH OTHER ๐Ÿฅบ SO CUTE
She gets to root in and do some wyrm watching with her tubers
Amanita, to the kids: look how silly your father can be. Look, watch
Amanita, wiggling a root:
Ebur: ๐Ÿ‘๏ธ๐Ÿ‘๏ธ
His siblings watching him paw at the root
Adustus: ...Dude...
Fossor: Good fates he's domesticated
Adamas: โ€ฆโ€ฆ oh how the mighty fall
She always knows how to embarrass him in front of his family ๐Ÿฅฐ
Zooming through her roots to play while Adamas wonders how he inherited such weird quirks
Adamas: I should have judged my mates better, what is this...
Ossum: hey they're the only one Like That
Melp: yeah weโ€™re normal about things
Ebur: Snrk- Yeah, just wait till you find your own mates
Io: I think you're just weird, actually
Ebur: At least I have a mate and children, you lonely ass
Amanita delights in how silly the tubers are. Truly the most delightful thing
Ebur's family think it's funny how the twins have been dubbed the tubers since they came here
But hey, it fits
I bet Amanita sometimes just casually steals her wyrm away
Just picks him up with her roots like "I'll be taking that~"
They're so lovely dovey it's nauseating
Even Adamas teases him about her swooping him off his feet
And he can't keep the smile off his face when he talks about her or hide the blush when they tease him so he really can't hide it
Ebur and the tubers also sleep in her den, keep in her tangle of roots.
The others can set up a den as they please
He at first set up a den near her instead of with her but it was literally abandoned on night one
It's his den in spirit
The second his siblings realise its been abandoned and how fast he's getting teased AGAIN
โ€œShouldve just saved the time and effort and not done that altogether.โ€
โ€œI didnโ€™t ask youโ€
Adamas: No, I bet they tried really hard to use that den but really couldn't help themself be apart from her, didn't you?
Ebur: ...grrrr
Adamas: Snrk, seems I got it right
Amanita: you made a separate den from me???
Adamas: case n point
Ebur: Ooooh, God forbid I want to sleep with my partner! You insufferable twats
Adamas: Youโ€™re such a fucking sap
Amanita: Oh but they're my sap~ And I think it's so cute~
Gets a collective "Bleh" out of them
The two looking over their tubers playing with Ebur's siblings
Amanita: Oh, these kids are great, I love them so much
Ebur: Mhm
Amanita: We should have more~
Ebur, sputtering: Amanita!
Io: HEY WE HEARD THAT YOU FUCKING WEIRDOS
Amanita: what? You didnโ€™t think I was going to want just one clutch did you love?
Ebur: w-whatโ€”
Amanita, curling around him: I have an urge for my seeds to spread my wyrm~
Io, gagging:
Fossor: What the hell, you two
Ebur: Not- not in front of my family, my love...
Io: literally traumatizing. What is wrong with them both
The rest is pretty much just VERY half assed future stuff and this is long enough as is ๐Ÿ˜ So like. Yeah.

This body isn't MINE and I hate it. How it dictates my emotions based on some stupid biological thing and I'm practically a puppet for my body to toy with.
The weights on my chest that I never wanted, the parts that I never wanted that do unnecessary things, the way I look and sound and it's all too much.
This body isn't mine. I just don't know whose it is.

asexuals will literally get assaulted, beaten, correctively raped, forced into medical and/or psychological conversion therapy, and driven to suicide, and yโ€™all will STILL have the audacity to say that โ€œaphobia isnโ€™t realโ€. you think the heterosexuals give us a free pass because weโ€™re not actively having gay sex? no, because we look queer, we sound queer, we ARE queer for not being heterosexual. the lack of interest in the opposite sex is literally one of the blueprints for queerness. aces get bullied for some of the same reasons lesbians and gay men do โ€” for not being attracted to the opposite gender. i remember being in school and especially church and being treated like an outcast, a freak, a queer and a dyke, because i didnโ€™t like boys and i made no effort to date them. im an asexual, and im a lesbian, and both of those things made me a pariah. no non-hetero is exempt from queerphobia and suffering at the hands of straight people and im sick of the erasure

There's news about Malte. Apparently when he went in to calm down the situation the perpetrator recognized him as trans and threw transphobic insults towards him before punching. He's now in custody.
I fucking knew this was a transphobic attack. I'm so fucking angry
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
From the article linked in the German tweet (translated by Google translate, I'm gonna get my friend to check it later):
Malte C., also a CSD participant, got involved according to FOCUS online information. "Where's the problem?" The transman tried in vain to calm the situation down. According to the investigation, Nuradi A. and his companion are said to have freaked out further and insulted the twenty-something. According to the tenor, he wasn't a man at all because he was transsexual. Without further hesitation, the migrant from the Russian Federation struck Malte C. and immediately sent a second, targeted punch. The victim fell unconscious on the back of his head on the asphalt. The thug and his buddy then fled.
So we were fucking right. He was murdered for being a trans man. Malte was recognized as a trans man and he was killed for it. Never let this be forgotten; Malte C. was murdered for being a trans man defending other queer people.
