Having Your Main Anxiety Response Be Avoidance Is Crazy Cause You'll Think You're Chillin And Then One

ARE YOU TRANS???

DO YOU LOVE HORROR???!!

STOP SCROLLING!!

I’m doing a research paper thingy on how queerness and specifically the trans experience is reflected in or interacts with the horror genre (with a focus on body horror) (that was the most confusing way I’ve ever explained it oops sorry)

Anyway- While researching and constructing my thesis etc.. I became curious of other experiences that might be similar to mine- so if you feel like you could answer any of these questions please do!

have you ever experienced a kind of catharsis or feeling of acceptance/representation while watching movies with body horror? (or horror in general)

Do you find comfort in the transformative and/or destructive nature of body horror? How/why?

Is there a specific horror movie or trope that you feel extra connected to?

Is there a movie/character/trope in horror that you feel reflects your experience being trans?

And lastly just plug your favorite trans/queer horror movie (doesnt have to be explicitly queer and in fact subtextual and unintentional rep is encouraged)

My most secret (not actually) and definitely most controversial bbc merlin headcanon…

Is that Gwaine is ace-spec

I have written so much about this but will post none of it because I KNOW nobody will agree-

It’s true though. He told me himself☝️🙂‍↕️

You look unhappy today

absolutely crazy move for arthur to say thank you to merlin for the first time as his last words and then hold the back of his head and try to pull his own head up for like. totally a kiss before losing the strength to pull merlin in and then just dying instead. good one man.

Being suddenly added to a random group chat full of millennial fanfic authors would save me in many many ways

That or joining a cult

I’m amenable to both tbh

Shout out to George. He was in like, one episode of Merlin and here he is. In every single merlin fic ever.

I have come to realize that I need to elaborate a little for the lesbian one bc some people couldn’t tell which merlin ship it was supposed to be

So just to clear the air-

That’s Guinevere and Lancelot 💫 ⚔️

butch Lance because what is the knights code if not just the butch manifesto ??

(There is a more complete version somewhere where I gave her an arm tattoo but it’s been lost to time)

Wait omg hi tumblr I also draw sometimes and this is some of my art :3 (ignore that it’s all bbc merlin I promise I draw other things too😔)

Getting freaky in the dorms but boyf is on his period so you gotta walk of shame to a shared bathroom
