starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I think it's a descriptivism/prescriptivism thing... Whether you define lesbian as "into girls" or "only into girls", linguistically both are reasonable, neither is 'wrong' and there are some contexts where it *kinda* makes more sense but it pisses me off too because it's oft just lesbian erasure 110
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 07/10/2026it's important to draw a line between 'smart' and 'knows things' and I think a lot of both is more to do with curiosity and perseverance than anything else! you start unaware, then you ask questions, you be patient with your ignorance, and little by little you gain insight 020
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 07/10/2026we have one of those weekly pill tracker things for other medication so when we swapped to injection we got a little toy lizard and put it in the day then when we do it we just move it 5 days ahead and it rules 110
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 05/10/2026It's a kind of catch-22 where it opens the door to terrible abuse, but school is pretty abusive by default also... I think a lot about how if the world was full of truly good schools, everything would be a whole lot better. 040
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I dunno rain, sometimes life happens, what if you wake up and one day you're 12? 1100
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 05/10/2026If you have time, the best option may be to rummage through youtube for Japanese makeup tutorials until you find one that seems like what you're looking for...? (and then if you find something good I'm sure your followers (us) would appreciate you sharing) 010
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I think it depends on what you're focusing on! Something focused on characters is easier, but you can have an OC setting that meets what the plot needs. Compare/contrast "fanfic of X" with "OC work inspired by X"! You can write a love letter without that love letter being "set in" the original work. 010
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 05/10/2026One option can be to round up a group of friends and do book-reading together, that way you can all get into ones that are good-but-not-mainstream and talk about it with each other! 010
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 05/10/2026didn't fifty shades begin as twilight fanfic? As someone loosely considering that route, fanfic's a great way to get started and motivated~ And then once you're ready to move on to real stuff, well, if you already put in all that work... may as well capitalise on it! 030
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 03/10/2026your mental wellbeing is most important! If blocking feels too much, maybe muting would suffice? 020
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 30/09/2026It's not meant to be the other way around??? 000
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 30/09/2026rain I think that's a type of trauma 141
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 29/09/2026(Well, of course I understand her, she's me. I'm looking good, too. Hair's a little fluffed up, could do with a brush, but it's a very nice picture you've chosen~) 110
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 29/09/2026oh I thought it was short for plural 120
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 29/09/2026it pains me to say this, but: touka 110
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 27/09/2026pads and wigs can be options? wigs I think are lowkey awesome because then you can change your hair to be any way you want any day you want! like shapeshifting cheap outfits, well, where I live there's places like kmart and big W that suffice. maybe amazon if you're desperate...? 020
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 27/09/2026last is practice you'll mess up but you can't mess up THAT bad rule of thumb is, trace a line from the side of your nose, then: -straight up, brow starts there -through iris, arch there -through outer eye corner, ends there youtube tutorial may be ideal, there are guide pictures on google images too 010
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 27/09/2026first I think can be solved by makeup (and obviously laser/IPL but that's presumably not within reach) third is kinda experimentation, but if you can get to a store that sells makeup you can get assistance, if the social anxiety isn't insurmountable (second I'm also trying to figure out...) 010
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 26/09/2026briefly misread this and had all sorts of different emotions... Was it the good kind of crying? I recall Magical Revolution having a pretty uplifting ending, didn't it...? Or was it more the pain of the journey to get there? 110
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Something Nemu once said that always stuck with me was to remember that lack of omnipotence does not mean powerlessness. 020
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 25/09/2026that sounds like a martial arts dojo 020
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 25/09/2026sex gets stale when it's ONLY sex, you gotta have a bit more variety 010
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 24/09/2026if what you want is more of the characters, maybe there's some good fanfic out there? and if there isn't...... maybe there could be 020
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 23/09/2026That's sad in one way, but it can also be kind of freeing. 020

starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 23/09/2026There's a wide variety of molds out there; sometimes you just have to find the right one to conform to! (and then after that, once you have an internal sense of belonging and safety, you can work on the conformist thing) 020

starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Judging by this image I don't think you need the practice however despite that please keep practicing 000
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 22/09/2026One of those days where I can't tell if being a fictive just inherently sucks, or if we latched onto the worst option possible... Maybe life would be easier if we could be from Hoyo, or from something so obscure none but us know of it? The heart wants what it wants, yet... it's not the only factor. 070

starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 20/09/2026according to demi-chan the reason vampires don't like garlic is really just because of their extremely sensitive senses, which means there are some who are really really really into it 020
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 20/09/2026I think there are a lot of scientists that have been and are working on such things! Kinda depends on what your goals with working out are, though? And of course, there are limits in both directions... 020
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 20/09/2026I think all writers need to get comfortable with imperfect first drafts. It's way easier to take something imperfect and clean it up, than it is to just whip out something perfect first try with no edits. The best gemstones still need to be cut and polished to shine properly! 010
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Yeah, I think that's natural for people like us... We want to help by fixing the problem, so warmth and comfort seem like distractions, right? But, they're necessary to the process, and, you can learn and practice how to be warmer and gentler, without losing that power of truth! 000
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 20/09/2026safety is all relative, as no human can ever truly be safe in this world however there is a definite increase in safety gained from acquiring the capacity for stealth we can observe this in the humble cuttlefish 010

starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 19/09/2026rain you have an excellent sense of shapes and anatomy and how to make them appealing! 130
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 18/09/2026We're the same, and it can absolutely be a wonderful beautiful thing! Not only that, but something people appreciate and like you for! Of course, part of it is learning the right ways to share these truths... but also learning that some people are receptive, and some people are just sorta doomed. 110
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 18/09/2026It's good since it lets the former villains have more moments! But also since forgiveness is really important. Otherwise nobody could make mistakes! So reminders that people can be forgiven are reassuring to those of us who make or have made mistakes and feel guilty or anxious about the idea. 210
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 17/09/2026I think, learning to be okay with "bad" art, so you can approach it without emotions blocking you. Maybe studying an artist you like and trying to recreate their art could be insightful? The ideas aren't important in this case, that'll come naturally once you're happier with your technique. 010
starlitwraith.bsky.social @starlitwraith.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Got a new Prescript. Been dallying but ought to get started... We've gotta join more discord servers (or similar) and meet new people! Widen our social circle and expand our horizons. Anyone got any spaces that could do with a few more Magical Girls or fae? May be quiet but we know many things. 040
