GIVEAWAY WINNER!!!!! 😘❤️💝🎉✨🎉✨✨✨✨

CONGRATULATIONS TO  @magicalgirlspotlight !!!!! It was really difficult decision to make and, as those around me will confess, one I was constantly thinking of.

Nevertheless, I was incredibly touched by Spotlight’s words and can’t help but  smile at in awe of how far we’ve come in this tiny little community :’) 

So thank you, Spotlight, for your love and support, and thank you @olkarianprincess , @diamondheart31 , @grbgcn2 , and @hessonite-angel-art (seriously, why does it never work with your other account???)

I’ve met so many wonderful, beautiful friends along the way and I cannot put into words how thankful I am to have you all in my life. It’s been a year since this monster of a fic has came out, but, for some reason, it feels longer than that.

Maybe that’s becuase updates take forever?

Maybe that’s because I'm constantly going back and forth on GM?

Or maybe, and most likely, it’s because of the amazing people I’ve met along the way who have clicked with me in such a way that it seems as though we’ve known each other for much longer. 

None of this would’ve been possible with you all! 

With all my Love,

GM Moodboards 7 - Chapter 7: Beloved, You Are

“Lotor couldn’t breathe.

It was impossible. No woman could have…his thoughts trailed off. Remembering the young girl’s face. The startling beauty of her tears. The soft, vulnerable look she gave him.

If only for a moment.

She truly was beautiful. Beautiful in a way none of his other women were. Beautiful in a way they all aspired to be. Lush lips and a girlish, soft face. Lashes long and feathery against a dotted cheek. He had held her.

Felt her.”

Chapter Song: James Young - I’ll Be Good

#AntisNotWelcome

I want to make something very clear right now. It is not cool to be an anti. It is not cool to send online hate/death threats to ANYONE for ANY REASON. Some of you take your enjoyment of a show too far and turn it into entitlement but let me tell you that you are not owed anything. You are not owed a canon ship, you are not owed any of the little “moments” and “interactions” that you want. Your opinion is not above the opinions of others. What other people do in this fandom, and how they choose to enjoy it, is not for you to approve of.

The way that some of you treat each other, treat the cast and crew of the show, is abhorrent. The past six months I’ve been in this fandom, I have seen mainly young teenagers engage in this behaviour. If you’re engaging in online behaviours that would get you arrested if you attempted it in real life, why are you suddenly the judge, jury, and executioner of others online?

Sending death threats is illegal, folks, just like if you were to tell people to go kill themselves. You can’t do that. If you’re reported and found, your ass is either going to be imprisoned or fined. You want to talk about “illegal” shit like “ships” (which is not illegal, you’re delusional, but anyone with more than one brain cell already figured that out) and then start doing illegal shit? You’re not only abhorrent, you’re hypocritical.

And guess what? You actually cannot send a person to prison based on fictional ships, nor can you get them in any kind of trouble with the law. Nobody cares. But death threats? Harassment? Antis, that’s one hell of a grave you’re digging there. It’d almost be impressive if you guys weren’t so pathetic.  

I am not going to be silent and watch you little shits wreck this fandom and this show for everyone else. Antis do not have a place here. You are not welcome. Go and stay gone.

#AntisNotWelcome

IT’S FINALLY HERE!

So sorry for the huge gape in between chapters, but college applications aren’t easy. 

Still, thank you all so much for sticking around this long and I hope you enjoy this new chapter!

With love,

Potentiala
