(Mudwing)
oooh, maybe! But it’s a lot of syllables, so maybe Virid-wings or Dianwings or Viriwings? I think I like that third one the most—
Starting with “Nonfire”! (I am open to better name suggestions…)
thank you!!
I hope @musedotmuofficial likes this!!!
Tone indicators are shorthand for words used to convey tone, which the Cambridge Dictionary defines as "a quality in the voice that expresses the speaker's feelings or thoughts". Tone can do so much to change the meaning and implications of a sentence. The intended use of tone indicators is in text, and they are prevalent on social media where miscommunication is rife, and posts and messages are often misinterpreted. Tone can be especially difficult to parse for neurodivergent people. This is not to say that neurotypical people never misunderstand tone through text, or even face-to-face, because they do — but that neurodivergent people may experience and interpret tone differently. They are simply paralinguistic signifiers used at the ends of statements to help readers fill in the blanks. They can also be called written shorthand for the poster’s (OP's) intent and emotion.
It's entirely too easy to use them, simply use them after, or even before, the sentence that you wish to clarify. "Can you explain this for me? /gen"
I'm going to make a masterlist of all the tone indicators I've seen so far, adding some that aren't in popular usage, some I personally use with my friends, some that I believe should exist, under the cut. In some cases, I've seen multiple versions of the tone indicator, in which case I've put the more popular one first (at least by what I've seen).
Tone Indicators I've Seen Popularly Used
/j: joking "i'll have to deactivate my account now /j"
/hj: half-joking "we should definitely date /hj"
/s, /sarc, /sarcasm: sarcasm "i absolutely love being sad /s"
/srs: serious "i'm just so very tired /srs"
/nsrs: not serious "my leg's hurting a little bit but i'm okay /nsrs"
/g: genuine statement "i'm thankful that you're talking to me right now /g"
/lh: light-hearted "isn't is spelled 'unnecessary'? /lh"
/nm: not really mad or upset "i think you got that fact wrong /nm"
/pos, /pc: positive connotation "the movie's back on for tomorrow! /pos"
/neg, /nc: negative connotation "i have work tomorrow /neg"
/ly, /l: lyrics "she's a, she's a lady, and i am just a boy /ly"
/p: platonic "i just want to hug you /p"
/gen: genuine question "are you okay with me talking right now? /gen"
/t: teasing "it seems your sense of humour is horrible /t"
Tone Indicators I Haven't Seen Popularly, but I Have Seen, and Also Sometimes Use
/ref: reference "it's like none pizza with left beef /ref"
/nbh: nobody here, for vague mentioning "i'm just so angry at someone /nbh"
/r: romantic "i really want to cuddle with you right now /r"
/sx, /x: sexual intent (Used for sexual innuendos, or similar hinting)

/m: metaphorical "i was just swept away by a wave /m"
/li: literal "the fish was as big as my torso /li"
/ij: inside joke "it's a whale on dry land /ij"
/rh, /rt: rhetorical "who even cares? /rh"
/hyp: hyperbole (exaggerated statements or claims not meant to be taken literally) "i've told her ten thousand times to stop playing that song /hyp"
/c: copypasta (a block of text which is copied and pasted across the Internet by individuals through online forums and social networking websites)
/f: fake "i saw this post yesterday /f", which could be accompanied by an edited or modified post

“Reader is implied aro/ace” jokes on you, I am aro ace >:)
I saw the Platonic Marriage and I love the concept of that🥰 also cause Alastor is an amazing character to begin with. Only if you have time or your ok with it👍 don't forget to hydrate and eat😸
yes ofc!! i would marry this man in a heartbeat we could be aces together<33 and thank you plz make sure u get something to eat and drink some water!!! take care!! warnings: suggestive ideologies (from angel dust) my takes on alastor's beliefs, reader is implied to be aro/ace the rest is fluff!!
🦌❤️platonic marriage w/Alastor hcs❤️🦌
this man would be a husband just to be a husband ok shfsj
who better to marry than his dearest best friend? you both do everything together, share all the same interests, both have the same standards and tastes! it's called "best friend FOREVER" for a REASON
yes you guys are partners... partners in CRIME >:)
alastor always found the idea of marriage very alluring but always despised the physical/sexual aspect of it.
alastor loves to take part in the "generic" aspects of being married. he enjoys cooking for you (and vice versa) and being domestic, taking you on outings, linking arms, holding hands, dancing with you, why should any of that be considered romantic?
the both of you appreciate and enjoy being devoted to each other and having a strong connection
also cuddles!! okay yes cuddles. as we all know alastor is not one for physical affection however did we see him get thrown around like a ragdoll by rosie? yes are you and him going to curl up like cats on a couch together? absolutely
wedding rings? nah. friendship rings 👍
now, let's see what the other hazbins think!!
charlie absolutely thinks you two are the cutest!! very supportive of the both of you and your relationship. vaggie is pretty much the same, though very indifferent as she doesn't like alastor very much lol
angel dust visibly had a loading circle over his forehead when the both of you told him you were married platonically. he assumed from the start ya'll were smackin' monkeys, but you're just married for the fun of it?? okay
husk is just terrified of the both of you lol
niffty has two people to crawl all over and give roach crowns to so 💃

I tried to get it, but it said “this app is not currently available in your country/region”
…I live in America…
since it’s a scary time to be trans: refuge restrooms is an app which maps gender-neutral/single-stall restrooms. it’s community-mapped, so it’s possible you might be the first person to log the restroom locations, but hopefully it’ll help some people.
please reblog this post if you’ve got trans followers. stay safe.
*This is very much still in the works
I love Stanley
I wish I had enough followers so I could post this and a krillion people would respond "I love Stanley"
