Blah blah “it’s all my interests” that’s the boring answer, I mean ask yourself: is your tumblr predominately a fandom blog with personal anecdotes or is your tumblr predominately a personal blog that also shows your interests?

this scene pretty much represents everything that I loved about barbie when I was a little bab

Katara: I don’t want to hurt their feelings!

Zuko: Hurt their feel- Do you just walk around all day, thinking about other people’s feelings

Katara: Yeah, don’t you?

Zuko: No! How do you get anything done?

OTP Questions MASTERLIST

updated 18.01.22

You may ask me about either my crossover or canon otps 🤗

Ember and Wade matching icons.

I’ve wanted to play with this for months, but my dumbass kept forgetting to actually have fun with it. I loved this when I saw this movie initially since it just makes so much sense. And I love talking about my OTPs, so here we go. (Also, this is with my crossover OTPs, in case anyone wondered about my other fandoms. Just ask if you want me to do it with them too.)

Hiccanna

Hiccup realizes that it isn’t Anna when the siren states: 

“Wouldn’t you like to go for a swim with me, darling?”

Hiccup is fully aware of Anna’s fear of water after what happened to her parents and to her sister, which causes Anna to only hang out in the shallower parts of water if they do something like that. And with his prosthetic, it only adds to Anna’s anxiety.  

However, Anna realizes it isn’t Hiccup when the siren says this:

“Let’s ditch the monster and cuddle by the fire for all time.”

It already told her that something was off when Toothless wasn’t with him, but that threw her over the edge. Hiccup, the biggest dragon protector, would never say such a thing about his best friend. Nor would she ever expect Hiccup to go without Toothless just for her. She loves the dragon just as much as he does.

Isastrid

 Isabela would figure it out it wasn’t Astrid if the siren says:

“There’s my perfect flower.”

No matter what universe we’re talking about here, Isa’s trigger word is perfect. And Astrid knows this very well, which is why she never refers to her girlfriend as such. She isn’t one for nicknames unless they’re in one of their sass-offs. 

As for Astrid, it wouldn’t actually be anything that the siren said. She would know immediately because the siren’s image is Isabela in her pretty purple dress, looking absolutely perfect. She just goes, “Nope, you’re not Isa. How dare you impersonate her?”

WinterPrince/Jans

Hans would be pretty fooled until the siren says: 

“You’re always right, Hans.” 

For one, Jack rarely calls him by his actual name. It’s either Sideburns or Princey or any nickname that may rub Hans the wrong way. And for another, Jack refuses to say that Hans is right in any situation until it reaches a point when they’re absolutely doomed. 

As for Jack, he may have been fooled had the siren not said:

“I hope you never leave me.” or “I love you too much to leave.” 

Hans doesn’t like to be vulnerable around Jack openly, while Jack struggles with the same thing. So, saying something so vulnerable or honest about his fear of Jack never returning is something that Jack would recognize. 

I’m struggling to think of one for SnowPunz, so I’ll maybe I’ll come back to this topic at some point. 

HOLD UP HOW WAS I NOT AWARE OF THIS

was gonna leave my comment in the tags but tbh i’m silent enough about this as it is.

seeing stuff like this is so upsetting because these terms were well known and widespread in the ace community but because of exclusionists many people stopped using terms like this because they felt uncomfortable and unsafe.

i loved these terms when i was in highschool, i loved the feeling of community, but i lost that because i didn’t feel comfortable openly and proudly calling myself asexual.

they’ve hurt so many people and damaged our community badly and i will never forgive them for that. we deserve to use our own terminology and feel safe within our community.

sometimes i notice i haven’t seen “grace” (grey-ace) in a while and consequently wonder if i made it up.

I remember ppl - even other ace ppl - saying the card suit thing was “cringey” and “straight ppl aren’t gonna take us seriously” (sounds familiar?) So i guess the community wound up abandoning it. We were also having severe issues at the time with aces being stereotyped as “childish/immature” for associating things like cake, dragons, and space with asexuality, plus in general as most aces just don’t “get” allosexual things in media and irl. We were starting to be viewed as ignorant, virginal, childish, losers, etc. I haven’t seen an ace-cake thing in a good while now.

This was the infancy of exclusionary influence on us. I didn’t realize it did more damage than just closeting us. Whole symbols and terms have been lost. Community has been lost.

I remember three-four years ago I got myself into the ace community on Insta, and I came across these terms. People in these circles would talk about cake, space, dragons, and the black ring on the middle finger. Then, a year or two later, ace content fizzled out (I thought it was Insta’s algorithm figuring out that I knew all this and didn’t bring me the old stuff) and young aces had no idea what any of these were - including the black ring. Finding out young aces had no idea what the black ring meant nearly snapped my heart in two - I proudly wore the black ring, I drew characters with it, and it was my quiet way of communicating to others what my sexuality was. I was baffled at the lack of knowledge - and it turns out that exclusionists got their hands into our community and snuffed us out. 

Anyways, we need to bring this back. I thought the card suite thing was cool, it taught people the different ways people can experience attraction, I loved making jokes about preferring cake, I loved wearing the black ring and talking about it with my fellow queer people at my highschool QSA club. 

I’m sorry, people don’t know about the cake or ring anymore? I remember being welcomed with spams of cake gifs, photos, and MS Paint drawings. I also distinctly remember that the block solo ring in the midle was meant as reference to the Ace of Spades (black, solo, middle of card). Only thing I didn’t know was that other aces could represent a more refined nuance. Let’s see if we can get this all rolling again.

Welcome to anyone who is interested in helping with the culture revival.

This is the exact reason I started my #ace positive and #aro positive tags. I remember learning about asexuality and thinking it was cool, but not for me (yet). I remember ace visibility day where people would post selfies with an ace card to signify their orientation like in the original post. I remember going through the tag and following every ace blog I could find, turning notifications on and scrolling through their blogs endlessly to learn more about it. I haven’t gotten a notification for any of those blogs in ages.

Going through all those blogs and seeing validation, learning more things about my newfound orientation was so incredibly as a questioning and unsure 15 year old. It’s devastating to me that this community has fallen quiet so much. So I started my tags, hoping to spread some more positivity and maybe inform people. This community is full of incredible people and the fact that so little of them remain, it heartbreaking.

Check out my tags if you ever need to. Maybe I’ll add more tags to my list to do whatever I can in support

I remember seeing the start of ace exclusionary rhetoric only a few years ago… I can’t believe so much of the ace culture got lost to it so quickly.

Please, if you want to start exploring an identity for yourself (especially one exclusionists will try to tell you doesn’t “belong”), consider finding and talking to older people who’ve been in the community for a while - preferably IRL if that’s safe, or on dedicated community forums. 

Diversify your research and look outside of socmed, which can be a hive of exclusionist rhetoric and flat out misinformation.  Ask around about old publications or websites (the ace community has been developed and discussed in queer spaces for pretty much as long as those spaces have existed)!  Check out the sources in wikis!  Do your best to learn the history - because there is history.  Share what you learn with your peers!  Every queer identity has an older and richer culture than the exclus want you to think, and you all deserve to be a part of it.

friendly reminder that this blog is a safe space for aspec people! unfriendly reminder that if you’re an exclusionist, Fuck You!

I should start using the ace of diamonds symbol.

Gonna hold onto this for reasons

HELLO HICCANNA NATION

It's that time again!!! I am pleased to report that I'm going to be hosting Hiccanna Month again this year since I got so many lovely submissions in 2022 :3 I have, however, decided to bump it to July this year since I've been busy with a new job and other adult stuff and have only just now come up with a prompts list ^^;

This year is all about Putting Those Guys In Situations: Alternate universes! The way it's gonna work is I have an overarching AU theme for each week, and then more specific AU prompts for each day. And then of course a music week, because you gotta have a music week.

The second annual Hiccanna Month is scheduled to begin July 1, 2023 and will go through the end of the month! And beyond! As y'all know, I am more than happy to reblog late submissions--hell, I'll probably be making a few myself ^^;

So without further ado:

WEEK 1 (7/1 - 7/7) - MUSIC

WEEK 2 (7/8 - 7/14) - FANTASY AUS

WEEK 3 (7/15 - 7/21) - SCI FI AUS

WEEK 4 (7/22 - 7/28) - MODERN AND MISC AUS

July 29, 30, and 31 are all free spaces to make whatever you want--prompts you missed, prompts you didn't get to last year, anything!!!

As far as content goes, literally anything is welcome--edits, art, drabbles/fanfic, videos, interpretive dance you record yourself doing that has Hiccanna motifs, it is all fair game as long as it’s Hiccanna-related!

See y'all in a month <3
