kicking my legs and giggling at the sleepover. can my OC who I've never drawn or talked about play with your OC who you've never drawn or talked about
just thinking about the “something special for someone special” item from tf2 which is a $100 virtual wedding ring that many people bought just because when you send it to someone it broadcasts a message to everyone currently playing tf2
thinking about how such an item would only work in tf2 and only because valve made the very good decision of having it broadcast a message to everyone currently playing tf2 and allowing renames of both the sender and recipient as well as the item so for $100 people broadcasted shit like

thinking about how there will never truly be something like this in gaming ever again
an ancient ancient god representing a long dead star that once, billions of years ago watched over Earth from a distance. now they are cold and tired. never worshipped, never thought of, never spoken of.
you werent sure how you came to know of them, a combination of dreams and "awakenings"
but soon you had a tiny little shrine in your room. nothing grand but nothing shabby either. you took good care of it, decorated it in a way that praised both their previous life and the one now.
It appeared over your shrine. A small smoldering sphere. Nearly perfect. Their representation. They didn't speak for months, merely observing the small decorations you added to their shrine. Beads, pearls, LEDs in various states of activity. Many things for them.
Eventually after months they spoke, quiet and humming. So silent you had to sit at the shrine to hear their whispers
"You do so much. For what? I am ash."
You hush them. They are beautiful. Ash that will one day burn again.
They are silent for a moment too long. You worry they will mute again.
"I cannot give you anything. Will you continue?"
You nod. If they are smolder then you will praise the fleeting warmth they give until they warm to their past fire once again.
They say nothing. That's okay. You decide you'll get some flowers for them tomorrow.
80% of "passing" is having enough money to purchase the clothes and services that will allow you to pass. Please stop holding being able to stealth up as the pinnacle of trans achievement. That place belongs to surviving. It belongs to finding joy. It belongs to love and community, not people who are rich enough to have professional makeup artists and tailors.
