🌸 Sapphic | ⚔️ She/They | 🎂 24 | Writer of On Borrowed Paths AO3: https://archiveofourown.org/users/SapphicSlayer/works Welcome to the horde. I am obsessed with Slay the Princess, and specialize in the concepts of ferality, feminine rage, & predator/prey dynamics through fanfic and analysis. I am the writer of several STP oneshots & the ongoing series On Borrowed Paths (basically a Tiny!Princesses AU), which is a dark fantasy surrounding survival at the [larger] hands of human brutality. While my blog typically stays within the rating of STP cannon, do bear in mind I consider STP to be an adult game and cover it from a variety of different angles. Adult humor and discussions may crop up occasionally, so bear this in mind when following.

On Borrowed Paths: A Tiny!STP Fanfic

Putting this one up as the full navigation for the fic since there's quite a number of chapters to this one! Designs by me; lovely character lineup by @feraljayce !

This is a dark fantasy universe in which the princesses are trying to survive the perils of humanity at only a few inches' height. Despite being a crossover with The Borrowers, all you need to know is that the Princesses are tiny little guys! No prior knowledge needed.

People be like "afab transfems(not even correct label use should be transfems afab) aren't valid why aren't there amab transmascs?"

Like, there are, but I'll do yall one better, I'm a cis man afab. If you can't handle intersex people being "technically cis" and identifying as trans I can't *wait* to see your reactions to us being "technically trans" but identifying as cis.

Like honey, it's not that simple. I wasn't even fucking raised as one gender or another, and I consider myself CTM, so guess what? Cistransinator 3000.

There are people assigned male who get raised female, assigned female who get raised male, people who don't get raised as or assigned as either, and hell, even people who get *reassigned* later in life. Some people have the opposite letter on their birth certificate their entire lives and never find out until they need their own legal documentation.

Also, yall's definition of being trans? Intersex exclusionary and based on a form of oppression. Drop AGAB, leave that shit in the past people.

Outrage follows after Texas gay campground doubles-down on banning transgender men from property

The Navasota-based, clothing-optional campground sparked condemnation after it publicly stated on Monday that it only allows cisgender men and would not allow trans men to attend upcoming events. That statement, posted on Trans Day of Visibility, claimed the exclusion was about preserving “comfort” and “shared lived experience” among men who were assigned male at birth.
“This campground was created as a haven specifically for men who historically lacked spaces where they could express themselves openly without outside judgment even from within the broader LGBTQ+ community. We’re not anti-trans; we’re just focused on preserving this unique sub cultural dynamic,” the venue posted
The clothing-optional campground’s mission was to “provide a safe, affirming and liberating space exclusively for cisgender men”, and it was “vital for guests to feel completely at ease physically and emotionally,” which included comfort with the “types of bodies, interactions and dynamics present”.

Gay bears stand up to campground that banned trans men

Grizzly Pines, a clothing-optional campground in Navasota, Texas, northeast of Houston, is now embroiled in controversy after the Houston Bears canceled their annual Bear Camp at the facility, citing the campground’s “MEN ONLY” policy. The campground defines that as excluding trans men.
In a statement explaining the cancellation, the Houston Bears said, “A community member recently inquired if they could attend Bear Camp at Grizzly Pines because the member thought that Grizzly Pines had a policy of not allowing transgender men to stay at their facilities.”
A second Texas bear organization, RGV Bears in the Rio Grande Valley, expressed support for the Houston Bears’ decision and followed suit, canceling their own event booked for Grizzly Pines.
“To our RGV Teddy Bear trans members, we will create events that we can continue to enjoy together in siblinghood (bearhood),” the group wrote.

Wait... It's clothing optional and about comfort of seeing bodies you perceive male... Couldn't they just state that post-op trans men can be naked and pre-op are asked to cover up if another member asks them to??? Like... Ok, this is a bit of a complicated topic but the answer honestly doesn't feel that complicated???

Asking a trans man to cover up their body because you don’t perceive their body as male is still transphobic.

Everyone say thank you american indigenous people for cultivating corn, potatoes, peppers, tomatoes, cacao, pumpkin, squash, and anything i missed. Makes life more meaningful globally

Scrolled past this agakn and just can't get over how much I love it. We need to make things beautiful again and this is such a wonderful example. The beadwork on the wires of a utitarian object, contrasted with the grey concrete.

> sees complaints that a female character looks "too masculine" or "like an ugly lesbian"

> ask if we got an actual butch character or if shes just a normal looking woman that isnt wearing make up and a dress

> person is visibly confused, i start explaining the difference between actual butch presentation and dress and a woman simply dressing comfortably to avoid indecent exposure

> person laughs and says "she straight up looks like a guy, i can barely tell her apart from the actual men"

> google the character

> shes just a normal looking woman that isnt wearing make up and a dress

> sees complaints that a female character looks "too masculine" or "like an ugly lesbian"

> ask if we got an actual butch character or if shes just a black woman

> person is visibly confused, i start explaining the difference between actual butch presentation and dress and how black women are held to white standards of femininity and are often accused of looking like/being men because of white people applying these standards to them

> person laughs and says "she straight up looks like a guy, i can barely tell her apart from the actual men. why are you bringing race into this?"

> google the character

> shes just a black woman

people really just walk into horror movies and expect them not to deal with uncomfortable things despite the genre being dedicated to discomfort.

i saw so many people complain that lisa frankenstein, a movie where one of the leads is famously a rotting corpse, was too gross for them. when i walked out of nosferatu, i heard people say that the nudity was uncalled for... in a vampire film. nudity? in MY gothic horror?! unheard of!

a LOT of people really need to accept that maybe some genres just aren't to their taste, idk. not every movie needs to be cookie-cutter clean. sexuality is a staple of gothic horror, if not the wider genre horror in General. you don't need to enjoy it, but it doesn't make these things uncalled for.

Lowkey fascinated (positive) with your turn of phrase here. "Loadbearing taboo." I am rotating it in my mind

Ayoo just to preempt the inevitable dumb takes we’re about to start seeing;

I am PRO-WOOL

I am PRO-LEATHER

I am PRO-BEES

Fuck the idea of replacing durable, sustainable animal products with cheap, flimsy plastic that doesn’t bio-degrade. Agave nectar and other artificial sweeteners are expensive, labor-intensive, and destroy the environment to be farmed.

Do not buy into pernicious marketing campaigns pushed by dickhead organizations trying to stay relevant, like PETA.

witch and thorn concept art

decided to give thorn burn scars. why not? the cabin is in ruins and there's lingering traces of ash. she's clearly been in a fire.

it took me embarrassingly long to realise that I forgot thorn's thorns. pretend I put them there. what kind of thorn stan am I

I know most people don't care about anything unless it has to do with the U.S. but can we please start talking about the Canadian election.

Please don't vote for Poilievre. He's basically the Canadian Trump and plans to put in place laws that harm trans youth, and lots of other shit.

Please vote istg this is the only way anything will get better. Poilievre has been kissing millionaires and billionaires asses. He'll make life even harder, and he loves Trump.

Reblogs are appreciated, especially if you aren't Canadian.
