people need to realise that a poor little meow meow must be a character who has committed atrocities you cannot poor little meow meow a good guy that's not how this works
The excluded tags filter on Ao3 is such a fucking lifesaver. I love it so much.
the thing managers don't think about when they ask you to do your job is that you have a little kitty cat all alone at home and you miss her :\
You're allowed to make characters/character designs just for the sole purpose of having a character that you really enjoy having btw. And before anyone comes in here I'm not talking about gross shit I'm talking about artists feeling ashamed to self indulge or make themselves characters just for comfort, and holding themselves to really strict standards on how their ocs should be. You can just have ocs for fun. It's cool if you're not that focused on how good the story or character is, you can just have them bc you like them. Or even if you do enjoy making complex stories and nuanced characters, you're still allowed to have some that aren't that, ones that are just for your enjoyment, and ones that are the way they are just bc you want them to be exactly that. It's okay. In fact I encourage you to have some characters that you can find joy and comfort in. Indulge yourself alright? <3
i have a special requirement called “I need to lay on somebody and bite them”
