I know alastor is the token character everybody makes fun of because he had that one awkward render but i actually love him as a character ๐ญ
He looks really good in the show, the render everybody redrew other characters in made him look awkward, and as a character designer and artist i know why.
90% of it is the eyes. Their placement is awkward, and you cannot read him at all based on the expression. I know Alastor always smiles, but in the show you can tell what he feels based on his eyes. Here, you canโt. itโs almost cross eyed. Angelโs original render also has this issue.
However,
THIS ONE IS SO MUCH BETTER. The pose feels more authentic, like something heโd actually do in the show. He looks confident and clever, almost judgemental. Im so glad they updated all the renders.
i really really hate the conflation of the concept of TERFs with the concept of transphobia, 1) not all transphobes are radfems anyways 2) trans people can be transphobic too, and by insisting all transphobia is practiced by cis people only erases and excuses the harm that is perpetuated in our community
how dare he look this good after being absolutely humbled? idk
poke him with sticks

SORRY TO BE SO MUCH BUT THANK YOU
Hot take, but cis people have gender identities. They aren't the gender they identify as because of their genitalia or what their birth certificate says. They're only cis because they identify with a gender and it happens to match their government documentation. Cis men aren't men because they're "obviously" men for having a penis. They're men because they identify as men. It's the self-identification that dictates this, not any other factor, even for cis folks. And we should be framing it this way. A cis man identifies as a man and a cis woman identifies as a woman. There is no automatic or inherent gender.
Tumblr is great because there are people who without a hint of irony will essentially say โbeing mean is a fundamental part of my ideologyโ and expect you to respect that
IโM TIRED OF SMUT, I WANT TOOTH ACHING FLUFF AND HEART SHATTERING ANGST.
It's like when the sidekick character trips on a rock, falls on their face but immediately gets up again and says "I'm okay- I'm okay."
Love how he's trying so hard to show he's okay in this scene
