I just love her hair ♥ And I think she's the only really normal character in my story xD (Well, more normal than the others at least)
Character Design: Nakano
How I be defending female characters
All these because someone said they don't like Annette Castlevania
This is my hero costume that I designed if I was in UA (Mha)
Cho's Mother (fanart)
Mother of @itsgojolickinggood's oc, Cho (not her official design btw, fanart I made before her design was created)
My mind decided to hyperfixate on friday night funkin’, so I made a character of my own.
This is Mega (Mega means cloud in Indonesian). She is a rockstar who’s well known for her high energy music, though she’s really chill and jokey in person. Mega is very exciteable however, and tends to not pay attention when she’s excited.
I think it’s awsome how so many people add to the original game with their own characters. It would be really unlikely that someone would see Mega and want to make a mod out of her, but hey, a girl can dream.
Might change her design.
I reeeaally like her design. This is Ruberta and she handles guns, alot of guns. I don’t remember why I gave her one eye, that might make it hard to aim.
IM SORRY WHAT
im literally a woman and I didn't pick up half of these mannerisms n things omg
well new writing guide is here guys
Ways I Write a Woman...
➤ Who’s Tired of Being Talked Over
You ever watch someone hold in a scream behind their teeth? That’s her, constantly.
✧ She starts choosing her words like landmines. Each one is sharp, controlled, and timed like a threat. She’s learned that being polite won’t get her listened to, but sounding like you might flip a table will. ✧ She’s mastered the art of the silence that feels loud. Doesn’t fill awkward gaps. Just lets the discomfort sit in the air like smoke. ✧ She explains things with forced calm, the kind that sounds like a teacher asking a second-grade class why the hamster is missing. ✧ She notices interruptions like bruises. She doesn’t react to them anymore, not out loud. But you can bet she counts them. ✧ She repeats herself less. Not because they understood her the first time. Because they never listened anyway. ✧ She’s learned how to weaponize eye contact. Not in a sexy way. In a “I will set this boardroom on fire with my mind” way. ✧ Her voice only shakes when she’s deciding if it’s worth the explosion.
➤ Who’s Been Called ‘Too Much’ Her Whole Life
She isn’t too much. She’s just tired of shrinking for people who were never going to make room anyway.
✧ She says the thing you’re not supposed to say. Then stares at you to see what you’ll do with it. ✧ She’s loud with her laugh, loud with her grief, loud with her love, because if she’s going to be punished for being “extra,” she might as well be honest about it. ✧ She over-explains. Over-apologizes. Then catches herself and stops halfway through the sentence. ✧ She tries to “tone it down” and ends up sounding like a censored version of herself, bland, miserable, unfinished. ✧ She edits her texts four times, deletes the paragraph, sends “haha ok :)” instead. ✧ She keeps her hands busy because otherwise they’d be doing something reckless. ✧ She overcompensates with sarcasm and then goes home and wonders if everyone hates her. ✧ She’s loved fiercely. Regretted it more fiercely. ✧ She walks into a room like she owns it, and then spends the entire time wondering if she should have stayed home.
➤ Who Wants to Be Soft but Doesn’t Feel Safe
She's gentle, but that gentleness lives under twenty layers of armor. And most people never even get past the first. ✧ She’s careful with her compliments, she knows how people weaponize kindness. ✧ She keeps her vulnerability behind locked doors and guards them with jokes, sarcasm, and “I’m just tired.” ✧ She’ll comfort others like she was born to do it, but flinch if someone offers her the same. ✧ She avoids mirrors on bad days. Eye contact on good ones. ✧ She cries where no one can see. Car bathrooms. Locked bedrooms. Grocery store parking lots at night. ✧ She doesn’t ask for help. Not because she doesn’t need it, but because the last time she did, it came with a price. ✧ She’s soft with animals, with children, with strangers, but not herself. Never herself. ✧ She daydreams about being taken care of, then immediately gets mad at herself for wanting something so “weak.” ✧ She wants love, but she’s terrified of being known. Because if someone really saw her? What if they didn’t stay?
And if you’re sitting there reading all of that thinking, “God, I don’t even know how to write women like this…” Please know: you’re not alone. Like, really not alone.
Writing female characters in a way that feels true, nuanced, and unapologetically real isn’t just about avoiding clichés. It’s about unlearning everything you were taught about what women are “supposed” to be on the page. It’s about getting underneath the polish. Past the performative strength. Past the “she’s not like other girls” and the “strong but broken” tropes. Past the idea that softness is weakness and rage is unlikable.
So many people struggle with this, not because they don’t care, but because no one ever really taught them how to see women as people first.
A lot of us grew up reading female characters written through a lens that flattened us. Made us background noise, love interests, plot devices, or emotionally bulletproof when we weren’t emotionally unstable. It’s no wonder we’re all trying to figure out how to do better now. I write a Book about How to Write Women that feel Alive... For you.
In the chapters ahead, we’re going to unravel that mess, together (Promise). We’ll talk about...
❥ Tropes — the ones worth reclaiming, and the ones you can toss into the fire. ❥ The psychology of a woman — how conditioning, survival, identity, and inner conflict shape her from the inside out. ❥ Female vs. male conflict — not in a “boys suck” way, but in a “our emotional battlegrounds are different and that matters” way. ❥ Expectations — society’s, her own, and how characters shrink or shatter under them. ❥ Emotions as strength — especially the ones she was taught to hide: fear, grief, longing, joy, rage. ❥ Female anger — what happens when she finally stops holding it in. ❥ Archetypes — and how to subvert them without erasing the truths they come from. ❥ Female friendships — no more cardboard “bestie” side characters. ❥ Romantic relationships — what it means when she’s finally seen. Chosen. Or rejected. ❥Mothers, daughters, and sisters — because female relationships deserve more than being backstory. ❥ Dialogue — how she speaks when she’s safe vs. when she’s scared. ❥ Inner conflict and development — her arc isn’t about fixing her. It’s about letting her evolve. ❥ Writing exercises — to help you get past the noise and write from a place that feels real. ❥ A full checklist for writing female OCs — layered, powerful, contradictory, alive.

This isn’t a rulebook. It’s a guide. A toolbox. A comfort blanket. A callout. A reminder that writing women doesn’t have to feel impossible, you just have to be willing to look a little deeper.
So if you’ve ever felt stuck writing a female character… If you’ve defaulted to tropes because you didn’t know how else to make her “interesting”… If you’ve erased her emotions to make her “strong”… Or if you’ve stared at the page wondering why she still doesn’t feel real...This book is for you.
And I promise, by the time you reach the last chapter? You’ll not only know how to write her. You’ll understand her. And maybe even see a little of yourself in the process.
Love u All!!🖤
Inspiration hits me so what do u think
Um...choose your Angie vol.1 I guess idk
Because I love to make options but not choices 🙄 Anyways, I hope I nailed it on this step. But I also have a feeling that the final one gonna be something completely different. Or maybe not, maybe I'll just make 50 more options and hide in my closet (again lmao) from my inability to choose only one and you'll never see me again. Completely possible... Any favorites? Help😭
I know I'm a big Glee shipper, but canonical Georgelina is an absolutely amazing couple too! I honestly refuse to choose just one ship, they're all so gorgeous in their own ways. As long as I see characters happy and relationships healthy I support any ship.
But I have to say, I see Angelina as an independent woman, who's really into her career. She's passionate about quidditch and I just don't think that romantic relationships were anywhere around her priorities until maybe her late twenties. She doesn't need a partner to be content and happy. And I definitely do not see Angie as a bad/evil character. This woman values friendship, loyalty, kindness, hard work. She has a voice and is not afraid to use it, but by no means is she a terrible person. Yes, even if she possibly had a thing with one twin in her teenage years before marrying another one in adulthood who's a completely different person btw. I don't think it's correct to compare these two relationships.
I personally would love to read more stories where Angie is a supportive friend, a loving partner, and just a gorgeous successful woman. I'd be totally up for more Georgelina post-war fics, this love story has so much potential. It's so beautiful and stunning, come on! Relationship goals.
Rant is over, have fun y'all ♥
And like someone said before:
She was strong not only because of her power.
A lot of people see her as a little silly girl, while she is a strong female character!!
Sarah Michelle Gellar deserved an Emmy for “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” and the fact that she was snubbed is something I’ll never be ok with. Buffy, not only as a character but also as a show, was and still is to this day such a huge pop culture influence. The show gave TV the first lesbian kiss (the fact that it didn’t happen until the year 2000… yikes) and paved the way for better representation… No one else could’ve done Buffy justice the way Sarah did. She was the heart of this show and really demonstrated that women are multifaceted, and that if you’re “strong” you’re not just the “strong” girl, you have weaknesses and are capable of being vulnerable and that it’s ok to be both. And it’s also ok to be fed up with men and call them out for their abusive patterns and blatant misogyny. And it’s ok to slay vampires in heels and look super hot while doing it. She really was THAT bitch. The fact that her performance was written off by the television academy because they only saw it as a “teen vampire soap opera” is really messed up and unforgivable.
Here’s something I recently made because I decided one of my characters didn’t have enough family. So, now my favorite character of mine has 5 siblings instead of 1.
Meet Corvid. She is the second oldest of these siblings, and I’m gonna love drawing her more, and writing her even better!
