What Color Do You Associate With The Person You Reblogged This From?

consider:

>stealth is out the window; she is getting you out FAST.

>no need for a laser gun, she is BRAWLING.

>through walls vision from the start.

>” you are awfully calm about maiming Freddy” “meh he wasn’t important... oooh check out his loot!”

>ends without a choice of stay or leave, regardless of what you do Roxanne is ready to knock Vanny’s head of her shoulders.

>have to deal with a wolf girl that is three dance moves away from a total mental breakdown at all times.

>has a cute nickname for you like Freddy does: Bitch.

who cares about lore implications, AU where Roxanne is the animatronic buddy instead of Freddy.

I choose to believe that the reason the Angler is called Fishbot in Act 3 is that P03 asked him his name, and the Angler either called him ‘bad fish/bad robot fish’ or told him to 'go fish’ or just mumbled 'fish’ as he sometimes does, and P03 just heard 'fish’ and assumed that was his name and slapped it on the card because of it

Disabled Representation Has Come Farther Than You Think

You’ve Just Been Conditioned Not to See It.

I recently got into a huge fight with an abled friend about disabled representation, in which he was completely convinced that the stance he held was that of an ally. He’s a long time friend of mine and I know he really did think he was fighting for us and coming from a place of trying to help us.

And it really got me thinking about the way abled people perceive disabled people. And how that message is internalised and reinforced in so many ways.

My friend was trying to say that characters like Cyborg, Misty knight, Daredevil, Toph, Edward Elric, Bucky, Nebula, etc were not good representation. And he at first refused to listen to me (an actual disabled person) when I was like; no, we like that. we love that. we LOVE seeing badass and competent and sexy disabled people. It’s validating and empowering.

His argument was that it didn’t really count because nobody saw them as disabled and that it would be the same thing as saying Gamora is black representation.

While I understand where he was coming from, both of us also being black, it was hard to get him to understand how it wasn’t the same thing.

Gamora is a black actress painted green to portray a green-skinned alien. She has black features, yes, but within the narrative she very much is not a black woman. She’s an alien.

But a disabled character is always still a disabled character. Regardless of how high tech or SciFi or magical or fantastical the world or universe is; an amputee with a prosthesis is still an amputee. They are still disabled. Yes, even if their prosthesis shoots lasers.

And other characters, like Toph and Daredevil, who are both blind, have superpowers/superhuman abilities that allow them to overcome their disability. That does not make them less disabled.

Their blindness still impacts their everyday lives. They can’t read. They can’t draw. They don’t know what things or people look like, or what color things are. They can’t read someone’s facial expressions during a conversation. They can’t follow a map without assistance.

When I asked my friend for examples of what he considered good disabled representation he said Professor X, Oracle, and the Thinker. And that made me pause and I won’t lie, it upset me. It felt degrading. I got kind of angry at him and it got a little heated.

Because what he was saying is: the smart one in the wheelchair that never actually joins the battle because their body is too frail? Those are the only good disabled characters? The ones who still need to be protected and treated tenderly and are physically weaker?

Do we only exist when you can view us as some subhuman lesser other that you can take pity on?

But it’s not only my friend who thinks this way.

I’ve seen quite a few arguments online about people who don’t think Edward Elric is disabled, despite being an amputee.

Who don’t think Cyborg is disabled, despite the fact that his entire power set is due to a life support and mobility aid device.

And my friend was shocked that I, and many other disabled people, find these depictions of strong and confident and capable disabled people empowering. He fully expected that I would find those depictions offensive.

And that’s when it really hit me.

The issue is not that characters like Bucky or Toph or Daredevil are bad representations of disabled characters.

The issue is that people don’t perceive them as disabled. They’ve internalized this belief that disabled people have to be weak and delicate and fragile and in some way physically inferior.

They’re only considered disabled if they’re tragic and/or weak. Or ugly. People love to project a tragic subhuman otherness onto disabled people who are ugly.

If they’re cool and badass that confuses them. That doesn’t fit with the narrative that’s been built in their heads.

The idea of a competent, confidant, and strong disabled character, especially a cool disabled character is just so completely foreign to them that they don’t even consider it.

Now I’m not saying that depictions of disabled characters like Oracle or professor X are bad or harmful. We need representation of disabled people who aren’t strong and don’t have superpowers and maybe don’t feel particularly empowered. That’s a genuine representation of many disabled people.

It just isn’t the only one.

I think the issue with disabled representation is not that it doesn’t exist (as I’ve seen many abled people online claim in our defense) but that we need to shift the way we think of disabled people so we stop overlooking a lot of the really cool and badass and awesome disabled characters we do already have.

So if you read this far through this essay, please stop for a moment and consider the preconceptions you have about disabled people.

Have you ever overlooked a disabled character because they were strong, powerful, charismatic, or, (God forbid!) SEXY?

And if so, I’d ask you to take some time to examine in yourself why you don’t think of disabled people as being able to be those things.

i feel like people are under the opinion that it’s ok to purposefully trigger a psychotic person IF. IF they’re a bad enough person. IF it’s funny enough. IF you’re friends with them. IF you’ve got a personal vendetta against them. IF they’re acting crazy. hell, even if they’re just existing or talking about their struggles in a public space. or even a fucking private one. which is so incredibly fucked up. your support for psychotic people should not be conditional.

So-- I have an Inscryption Fan character-- and I haven't made a fan character in ages, so-- I'll just keep it under a cut and if y'all feel like reading, go for it.

So I have a Scrybe fan character named [Removed]. Title is simply- The Removed Scrybe. This comes from the fact that his files start with Removed_ and the file name. In theory, he was supposed to be a 5th Scrybe, but was either scrapped due to lack of time, or finding that technically he might seem repetitive with the other Scrybes about.

Appearance- Like Leshy, [Removed] (Rem for short), appears in darkness. That is where the likenesses end. He is permanently enshrouded by shadows. This IS part of his normal appearance. He has 3 eyes that the player can see. On on the right side of his face, and two on the left. One is placed above the other. While you may not see it, he has many a limb and multiple mouths, and fangs. All's more the mystery... I'll speak more about his appearance under Gameplay.

Gameplay- (This is the least hashed out, so you'll need to forgive me.) [Removed] plays an over-arcing campaign as P03 and Leshy do if found among the files and loaded somehow. He sits across from you and a deep, single guitar strum is heard when he speaks to you. He marvels at how you could have found him, and then ponders that perhaps he has a game in him yet. Before the player will be a marble table, a sterling silver scale that is so new it's almost white, and a massive deck of cards. To be frank, you start out with an obscene amount of cards, more than you'd need...but that's the point. Instead of gathering cards, you trade away less important cards for more powerful ones. This could be a boon or your downfall depending on how the game is played, because sometimes, as we have seen, you need fodder. This should make the game flow Hard- easier- easier-super easy- harder- harder- extremely hard in the end moments. You HAVE to trade something for something, so if you end up at the last boss with only 3 cards, that's a lesson in Avarice. Each hit you take results in a golden coin landing on the scale. The coin itself has no markings. In order to depict the scene of his tale, [Removed] will change the lighting of his room, play audio effects, and even extend a matching appendage that fits the role he plays. (hand, claw, tentacle, you name it)

Other stuff- The old_data exists, but the funny little mustached man is nixed for this AU. He knows the old_data exists and accepts that it is so. For it's easy to compartmentalize when you are in pieces. Parts of him were given to each scrybe. Nothing overly big, but still, the things that made him. He still has his assets, so if you look really, really hard you might be able to find him.

Misc (funny thing)- When you have a game over with him, he seems just as exasperated as you may feel. He has Laughing, Curious, and Normal noises, but only one Exasperated/Frustrated sound that sounds like the shifting of a bow string against smooth wood.
