Boundaries / Before You Interact

Last Updated: 08/26/2025

This page is a list of boundaries and important notes for interacting with me, and me interacting with others.

I decided to make this after I was made uncomfortable one too many times, and I'd just like to have this list all in one place. I would also like to be 100% clear on what I am and am not comfortable with, and potentially avoid awkward situations/discussions.

If you were linked this page, it doesn't mean you're a bad person or this is a personal attack! It's just a resource to be able to easily give to people so they can be aware and informed.

Additionally, my boundaries are not an invitation or a challenge. Failure to respect me, my autonomy, and my privacy will result in a block on all platforms. I take this very seriously.

If this page and/or my boundaries angers or upsets you, please take a step back and really evaluate why that is.

When it comes to ALL boundaries, the best policy to follow is "ASK, DON'T ASSUME." If you are confused by ANYTHING or want to ask for clarification, please do not be afraid to reach out!

Introduction and Explanation

Why do you even have this page? I don't get it.

I'm autistic, and I communicate very directly. I also handle things differently than most other human beings. I think it's easier for me to have all of my boundaries written down and to be able to communicate them clearly. People may not be aware of how I feel or where I stand on certain things. Think of this page as handing someone a flyer or manual with information, nothing more.

It's also worth noting that some of my boundaries are just a result of something happening, and my response is "I don't feel comfortable with this / I feel uncomfortable when this happens." It is never meant to be rude, I'm just direct. Thank you so much for understanding and being patient with me!

I think your boundaries are bullshit. This is rude. You should be grateful.

I'm glad you got to experience an upbringing and a life without malicious gifting, bullying, or complex types of abuse. However, not all people are that fortunate. I hope you are able to learn to understand the perspectives of others and extend more grace to those less lucky or who are different than you. If this is an issue for you: Block me. It is a very easy solution; you'll never have to see me or my content again.

I accidentally did something listed here, but it was an honest mistake. Do you dislike/hate me?

No way! Especially if we talked it out. I know I handle things weirdly because of my autism, but discomfort =/= hate. I'm always open to talking this out and coming to an understanding. Even if I end up not getting along with someone, I'm not going to start fights or be explosive. Don't worry- I'm an adult that just wants peace and quiet. I think that's the case for many of us, so let's work together to have it!

Gift/Fan Art Policy, Interacting with my Art

Don't reupload my work, please! (With exceptions)

Please don't reupload (repost) my artwork on other websites or social media accounts, even with credit. Exceptions to this include folks posting art they received from me (with credit) or paid work. If you're unsure, feel free to ask.
Using built-in repost/reshare features (such as reposting on BlueSky) is totally okay and ENCOURAGED! I deeply appreciate anyone who helps my art be seen!
DO NOT use any of my artwork, characters, or graphics for yourself (outside of things made by me, FOR you). My characters and their art are not for people to use for roleplay, tabletop campaigns, or anything else.

Do not create fanart/fan content of my VTuber or OCs if you cannot portray them accurately and/or respectfully.

My characters - especially ones that are meant to be personas/extensions of myself - are very important to me. I don't think wanting them portrayed accurately and with respect is a tall ask.
I make references for all of my characters very easily accessible and clear. If you're having trouble finding any of them, feel free to reach out!
Skin, eye, and hair color should always be correct. You can color-drop this directly from images/art I've done. If I have not posted swatches/hex codes and you need them, feel free to ask and I'll get them for you!
Hair style should be correct. These are a large part of my characters' designs, so they're important to me. Sometimes I experiment with new looks, but not always. If you want to experiment or think a character would rock a different hairstyle, ask me about it! I probably will be fine with it.
Some of my characters are trans. They should always be portrayed respectfully and correctly. If you have any questions, it's always okay to ask.
Do not change my characters' body types, especially if they're plus-size or otherwise not thin.
I draw my characters in specific outfits/fashion to match their personalities and character design. I'm open to different ideas for outfits, but please ask me first!

"But I'm learning how to be more inclusive in my art, and I want to practice that with your characters!" That's great. As a plus-size, queer, disabled, trans person of color: If you cannot comfortably draw fat people or dark skintones... please go learn before drawing my OCs. 👍

No AI-generated slop.

Generative AI steals from artists and I have no interest in using any of their material or programs. I 100% will decline attempts at giving me gifts/fanworks that are AI generated.

My plus-size / fat art is NOT fetish art! Please respect this.

I don't kinkshame/judge, but fat people existing is not a fetish. Fat people exist, do things, and have lives like everyone else! I try to portray that in my work with my plus-size characters. Fat bodies and baddies deserve to be seen, respected, and loved, and that's a core part of my art.
These particular kinks/fetishes just make me uncomfortable in general, so I don't really want to see it! I don't judge anyone who does draw it, and just mute terms if needed. But I will not draw this type of content, and my art isn't that type of content. Please respect this!

Don't make explicit, sexual, or creepy remarks about my VTuber model or OCs.

I'm okay with folks making respectful thirst comments about my OCs. Calling them cute, hot, sexy, or attractive is okay. I love seeing people be respectfully unhinged about my OCs, too. It's fun!
I'm okay with compliments like this directed at me as well- I know I project myself through a VTuber model, and it's okay to be into that. I'm in a relationship, though, so please keep it to respectful comments.
Please learn the difference between a compliment and a creepy remark.

NO NSFW / 18+ OR KINK/FETISH ART OF ANY OF MY CHARACTERS WITHOUT MY EXPLICIT PERMISSION.

Some of my OCs will have different boundaries for this. It's important to ask or check their specific pages as I do have a separate section for what I am and am not OK with. When in doubt, ask me!
I draw NSFW art for myself (properly labeled and separated, and not anywhere on my website) and for my own self-expression, as well as commissions. This does not mean that anyone can draw adult/NSFW art of my characters. My self-expression and doing so safely is very important to me.

DO NOT COMMISSION ART OF MY OCS / VTUBER MODEL WITHOUT MY CONSENT.

I am VERY particular about the way my characters are portrayed and have preferences for specific art styles. Things can also get messed up when there's a middleman in communication. I'd rather just commission art myself - I support paying artists for their time and effort.

DO NOT draw my OCs/VTuber with other characters/personas that are not mine without asking me first.

It makes me uncomfortable when people do this without asking, and I've had VERY uncomfortable situations occur with this.
Obviously, you can draw my OCs interacting with my other OCs. This is fine! (Just be respectful, no NSFW.)
If you want to draw your OCs/personas with mine, feel free to ask (platonic interactions only).

No fanfiction or fan-writing of my VTuber/OCs.

I'm very protective of my OCs in this regard. I have put a LOT of thought and effort into them - I don't think others would ever be able to write them in a way I'd be satisfied or comfortable with. Please respect this - I'm not comfortable with it, period.

No cosplay of my VTuber model or OCs.

See the above statement on fanfiction. I'm extremely flattered that anyone would want to do this, but I'm just not comfortable with it.

No HeroForge models of my VTuber/OCs. ~~I am not a fan of these, and never have been.~~

No art of my model/OCs made with flash games, bases, etc. Make art that is yours and not on a template or base.

Social Media, Public and Community Spaces

General Interaction:

DO NOT USE MY BUSINESS E-MAIL FOR CHAT OR PERSONAL QUESTIONS. There are plenty of other avenues where you can reach out to me for non-business inquiries! Use those instead.
If I've blocked you, do not contact me in any way via any alternative. Do NOT try to block evade, even if you are trying to apologize to me for something. A block is a boundary in itself. Please respect that.
Being kind and sincere goes a long way. If you make a bad first impression, I will not be cruel- but I will very much avoid you. That's all there is to it.
If you tried to reach out to me/show me something and I missed it, please don't be angry with me. I get a lot of notifications and I have ADHD. It's easy for me to get sidetracked, forget to reply to something, or miss something. Please find a way to reach out to me before assuming I ignored you! I probably just missed it or forgot to reply!

Social Media:

I block liberally. If you're blocked and you have no clue who I am, it's really nothing personal. A block in that case means I just don't want to see what you post or just don't vibe with your page.
Don't interact with me at all if you're a bigot. No, I will not debate you. I have better things to do - and I don't want bigots, fascists, or assholes of any kind in my community spaces.
I get a lot of comments sometimes, but I don't always know how to reply! If you leave something nice and I "like" the post but don't respond, that is my way of saying I've seen and acknowledged your reply and I appreciate you. I'm sorry I don't always have the time/energy to reply to every comment or DM!
I disable comments/quote shares on some posts for personal/comfort reasons, nothing more. Being perceived on social media and getting a lot of attention can be overwhelming!
I do not engage in debates, arguments, or overall unpleasantness. My social media is curated to share my work, post about my OCs, share shitposts and fun stuff, and overall having a positive experience on social media. I also encourage others to do the same.
I'm not afraid to talk about politics. I didn't ask to be here, and they do affect me. I try to avoid doing so excessively. Protecting marginalized people and calling out bigoted behavior is also not "drama."

Twitch and YouTube Streams:

If I miss a message in chat, don't spam. Gently remind me, repost the message, or speak with a mod! They're happy to help in case you need to draw my attention to something.
Do not demand me to say things or do things on stream. Do not tell me what to play or how to run my stream. (Helpful suggestions made in good faith are welcome; being critical, demanding, and rude is not.)
While I'm more than happy to be helpful, supportive, and kind: I am not a therapist. Mild venting in chat is fine, excessive trauma dumping or discussion of stressful/triggering topics is not.
If you're interested in doing a stream collab (or any kind of collab that isn't a business deal), please talk to me and get to know me a little first. I do not do "blind" collabs; I prefer to be familiar with my collab partners and make sure we have good synergy on streams.
