Personal Pride

Another post-ship AU. Garret still struggles with body issues, and Stefan takes him to pride to get over them.

Work Text:

"Guess where we are" Stefan said.

Garret sighed. He allowed the possum to put his paws over his eyes while Tabby drove them to the parade. Gail giggled to their side.

"Guess we arrived, then" Garret said, playing the bit.

"Just parking" Tabby said, monotonously as ever.

The car doors opened, and Stefan was dedicated t...

Jenna the ally

Jenna looked at her phone. Carl had texted her, sending her a picture of him a begruding Flynn with pride pins, pan and gay respectively.

It was adorable.

Jenna had always been perplexed at how her entire friend group was LGBT. Chase and Leo (and then Kudzu), TJ and Sydney, Carl and Flynn. All of them confessed to her privately, which never ceased to amuse her. It took them a while, but all the guys came out of their closets.

As for her?

She did consider other women at...

My identity as portuguese

I see myself as Wepwawet,

Who opens the gates of Duat.

From those gates come plague,

Enslavement,

Genocide.

A forest torn down in Brazil,

Heads cut in Timor,

Slave ships in the Atlantic.


Is this my legacy, oh Empire

Where the sun never sets?


No.


I love my tongue but not my hands.

I love my soul but not my spirit,

Destined to join my ancestors.


I am me,

I am the...

Zerocalcare is what the world needs

<figure></figure>

I’m relatively new to Zerocalcare’s works. I watched Tear Along The Dotted Line and I was in love with that. Frankly, he’s an inspiration as an artist and activist, so I’ll be extra careful to not meet my hero.

This World Can’t Tear Me Down is even more ambitious than it’s predecessor, juggling social responsibilities with the simple fact that loved...

Freshwater Hesperornitheans

Brodavis by Scott Reid, a taxon that occurs in freshwater environments.

Hesperornithes are some of the most iconic extinct birds. Or rather, the larger, marine members of this group like Hesperornis or Canadaga are; little discussion is there to be made of the myriad membrs of this group that not only were smaller, but lived ...

An year passed as a couple, and an old friend rejoins them.

"Cedric's coming" Kieran said, turning the wheel to the right.

"Good" Wes said, "Hope he found what he's looking for."

Male Feminist: Everyone has their rhytmn. It's healthy for him to explore himself

Kieran shook his head. He parked the car, then kissed Wes on the cheek. The tiger pulled him into a full kiss, incredibly tender for his ...

Violet Memoir fanfic: a quiet pride

Two sensitive bois preffer a more intimate celebration

Work Text:

Wallace was typing on his computer, finishing the assignment.

It was pride month, and for the first time in his life he felt like celebrating it. But the idea of going to a parade was intimidating, so he decided on a more private celebration. And he knew who just to call.

"Lucas?" he typed on his phone.

A minute passed, before the phone rang.

Rocket Raccoon sighed.

He took the Benatar, leaving the Bowie back with the others. He thought it might old sentimental value, especially since that was the ship where their adventures began. This was a shore leave, so the elegant option fit the occasion.

Flight was quick, all things considered. He met no one to stop his descent to Earth; either its guardians knew...

Burrows fanfic: Sam's View

Following the Path sidestory

Work Text:

As he drew his last breath, Sam saw everything.

He saw his mistakes, his smothering of Simone, his inability to comfort his brother.

He saw stars, so many endless stars, an ocean of light where there should be void.

And he saw them.

Scheming, conniving, vicious.

He had no name for those things but evil.

And they caught Grey in their trap, alongside four other souls.

Devon sighed.

Cameron was just sitting idly by. He was recovering, but his anhedonia was still severe. Just a week ago, he had given up music for good. And he avoided going out when Artie and Maria were involved.

Still, he was improving. And Devon knew it was time.

So he sat on one knee, next to Cameron.

"Cameron Wilson, will you marry me?"

Cam was stunned.

He then cried.

Amazingly, Devon's promise was true: they lasted 110 years.

On Cameron's end, the Echo episode made the finaly years painful, but pain was nonexistent with the love of his life by his side.

They laid together in bed, nuzzling one another.

They both knew their lives were fading, strength sapped from their limbs, Cameron feeling life energy fading, but they could only smile.

Was The Owl House a refuation of The Legend of Korra?

“The problem was, those guys were totally out of balance. They took their ideologies to far.”

  • Toph Beifong

“That’s assuming that’s coming from genuine intent.”

  • The Titan

When The Owl House usually gets compared to other shows, it’s usually things like Steven Universe, due to the more realistic take on villain redemptions and actual LGBT representation, or Star Vs The Forces of Evil, for lacking its melodramatic elements and not doi...

Fallen Máni: Wealth

"And the Best Picture Nomination goes to.... Lands of Fire!"


The crowd applauded, and Jonathan took the stage.


"First of all, thank you all so much. All of this year's entries were excellent, and I do mean it. I simply aimed to tell a story that has been in my heart for so long, years even."


"It started as an idea a decade ago, and I even wrote the script for the first page. But it sat down on the corner, and life went on."

Fallen Máni: Auroch

One particular trip to Vanaheimr, a storm brewed in the air.


Bored, Manuel saw a herd of wild cows.


He assumed the form of one, and joined them.


A god within a beast's body, he admired how strong he was, and how powerful his limbs were.


He run through the field, and decided he would rather fly.


So he became a winged mammal once more, crescents dotting his wings, and he flew out of Vanaheimr, unto the cosmos.<...

He loved it. He loved it so very much.


No longer bound to his fate, he could stare at the rejuvenated waves of the Atlantic, at the flocks of terns flying abound.


Beneath the waves, his uncle coiled and churned the waters.


"Good tidings, nephew" Jörmungandr whispered, his voice the waves themselves.
