Sc4p - Oh, It's Just Sc4p

!!!!!

Recently I saw an user say they feel weird about the brazilian Ruggie headcanon because “poverty, thievery, and misery are often associated with Brazilians.” I've also seen non-brazilians hesitate to embrace this headcanon out of fear that it might come off as xenophobic or racist. So I wanted to give my perspective on the topic as a brazilian and why the BR!Ruggie hc means so much to us 🫶

If we were to assume that Ruggie is a shallow character whose only traits are “grew up in poverty, lives in a slum, and steals to get by,” and then directly link that to a nationality? Yeah, obviously that would be xenophobic. But that’s not what this HC is about. It’s about how he navigates life and survives despite a difficult background. Reducing Ruggie to just a ''poor pickpocket” does a huge disservice to his character. He’s a hard worker, works in multiple jobs at once and is constantly adapting to survive. This is the reality for millions of brazilians (and many other latinos too) GROWING UP POOR IS NOT SHAMEFUL. No one chooses poverty. People from underprivileged backgrounds often have no choice but to do what they must to survive. In a capitalist society being clever and even deceptive is often a survival skill. It's the PERSEVERANCE to succeed and the resilience it takes to fight for a dignified life that makes them admirable, not the methods they use. If you live in any Latin American country, it’s nearly impossible not to know someone who lives a life similar to Ruggie’s (or to have lived it yourself) And again, it’s not just about being poor!! It's about having to be creative to make resources/food/items last as much as they can, about teaching yourself new skills (like learning a new language on your own without access to paid classes), about being quick-thinking and cunning so you don’t miss out on opportunities, about the shared warmth of community food, and about keeping your humor and playful spirit alive even when life is hard. So when we say “Ruggie feels brazilian,” it’s not because of stereotypes even though we don't really feel offended with stereotypes most of the time tbh it's because he embodies a spirit we know so intimately, the hustle, the laughter through hardship, the cleverness born from necessity, and the hope for something better. It’s representation of a kind of resilience that deserves to be seen with pride, not shame.

the entire point of life is to be silly, kind, and really weird btw.

Amor Doce x Ouran Highschool Host Club

Há alguns meses, fiz essa animação para um concurso de fanarts que, devido a alguns incidentes, acabou não acontecendo... Apesar de não ter sido da maneira que eu esperava, a arte ainda assim foi um grande tesouro, pois foi através dela que muitas pessoas começaram a me apoiar e encorajar nas artes. Graças a isso, hoje em dia, finalmente tenho confiança de artista para continuar desenhando e crescendo!

Então, tenho um carinho muito especial por esse trabalho e espero que vocês gostem também ❤️

maybe tomorrow will be better

Hey, look who's back! ٩(＾◡＾)۶

I haven't posted anything else on my blog because this past week has been a busy one, and I ended up being caught up in the discouragement along with the stress of the end of term papers.

In the end I did well in my grades, but I ended up failing a subject.ಥ‿ಥ

Also, a new thing was that I taught, my first class at the school where I was an intern. I was so nervous! But in the end everything went well, the teacher in charge thought my class was good, but for me it was reasonable.

Could it be that I am being too critical? Maybe ヽ(ヅ)ノ

But in the end I'm already getting back in the vacation mood, and in the next period I'll give my best.(o_ _)ﾉ彡☆（＾ｖ＾）

Me when I see nsfw of my 2d Man of the Month

My headcanon for this moment –which I'm creating for myself since I wrinkled my nose at his remark– is that he was anxious and overthought what to say, so he automatically recalled their last meeting. In an attempt to lighten the mood and calm himself down he mentioned the mistress thing without thinking twice.

When met with silence, he quickly connected the dots, realized he was being an ass since she had already expressed her desire to avoid the topic, and started apologizing.

Also, this whole cat-and-mouse dynamic between them is the only way he knows how to express himself and his feelings to her, so he clings to it, often coming across as a heartless jerk not realizing, though, that there are moments when the act has to end – this being one of those.
