Time for a new pinned post! Hi to old friends from twitter and new people here, I'm Maayan, and in between endless whining about how hard writing is I also write fics (genshin/danmei/drv3/kingdom hearts etc)! Here is a thread of some of my favorites:

im re-listening to the goblin emperor and the situationship between maia, calla and deret is EXACTLY what a monarch/retainer relationship should have.... zero privacy/so much shame/adoration and disgust in equal measures/the closest in the world but can never be equals..... the perfect cocktail

re-draw of the Death arcana card from hades 2: thanatos looms over a profusion of wings and butterflies, but it's zagreus's body draped over his lap; stygius falls from zagreus's lax grip, his face turned into thanatos's shoulder, as than wields his own sword to sever this life short (at least, for now)

My friend Omar has had to start a new fundraising campaign and him and his family has barely received any donations in months. The situation in Gaza remains severe and they need help to survive and eventually leave if necessary. Even small amounts help, please share and donate if you can 💖
Help Omar and his family, orphaned in Gaza.
My name is Omar Al Agha. I live in Gaza with my mother and my four siblings. We used to have a home — a place filled with laughter, warmth, and dreams. But the war took everything from us. Our house w...

When I was so close to reaching my goal, everything suddenly stopped. Donations stopped. It’s like the world went silent right when I needed it most.
too drained to ask, too heartbroken to try again.
It feels like watching hope fade right in front of me, painfully. 😔

Been trying to read some isekai lately.
Four frames comic about two types of Isekai I found and read lately. The first frame shows a young man with a sword. He says: "My name is Josh Itcantbehelped and I used to be a loser before a car crash brought me to a world where I am a god and half the population is made of SLAVE CATGIRLS". The second frame shows him crying and clenching his fist, with many a cat behind him, wearing bikinis. He says "To make it here I guess I have no choice but to own as many catgirls as I can...how tragic...". The third frame shows another character from another type of Isekai. She's a woman with a fluffy dress. She says "My name is Elise Robespierre and after being hit by a truck of terminal cancer I am now in my favorite 900 pages novel. With many a hot man.". The fourth frame shows her giving a board presentation to citizens, with graphs and pictures of plants on it. She says: "Hello citizens. This is my plan to modernize the agricultural system and prevent any further plague by creating medicine [...] taxes which ..." the text becomes unreadable as she keeps talking to her captive audience.

I'm proud to announce myself, Ellsyx, and Aimi all have updated headshots. Finally!

I wrote about these, in addition to a few other staff updates, in our latest news post, which you can read here: berelyse.org/news/

Personally? I believe our photos turned out wonderfully. (-:
-AP
A bust of Amherst Pounce. He is a young man with dark skin and dark blue eyes. He wears glasses and smiles at the camera. His hair is dark brown, cropped at the sides of his head but curly on top. He wears a brown vest and dark blue bowtie over a white collared shirt. A bust of Ellsyx. She is a young woman with fluffy brown hair with red and gray highlights. Most of it is tied up in a ponytail by a red bow. She has silver eyes and a red symbol tattooed on her cheek. She wears a red jacket with a gray fluffy collar over a black sleeveless tank top. She wears a chunky gray necklace with a fire sigil carved into it. A bust of Aimi. She is a young woman with light skin, yellow eyes, and brown hair with blond highlights that is tied into two twin braids. Each braid ends with a small star clip. She wears a yellow straw hat in the shape of a cresent moon. She has a yellow bandana tied around her collar, and wears green overalls over a yellow and pink long sleeve shirt.

This genocide campaign is not some news event that you can just shut our eyes to, but actual carnage and tragedy happening to real people living through the worst our world has to offer. We are so close to my goal and mu family deserves to live and prosper. Please - if you can - please help us.

Now that the UN commission has confirmed what we have all been able to see perfectly clearly for the past two years, I just want to say that one of the most reprehensible denial arguments I heard again and again was "if Israel was intent on committing genocide, there would be no Palestinians left"
