hi opinion on amy !! (the black hair kid from hexley hall in "substitute cedric") u should totally draw her also ur art is so awesome and cedfia is peak 4 lyf
I think she’s ok. She’s much cuter than her two friends lmoa. Don’t feel strongly anything strongly towards her. I might draw her later! Also thank you so much!!
May I ask how old are you or what is your age range? :o
I’m pretty curious sorry haha
I’m 5 to 12 yrs old! (haggard millennial irl lmoa)
Have you ever thought of drawing Cookie Run characters? I feel like they’d be depicted so well by you! 💕
Ooh I have in the past! (Didn’t draw a lot tho!) I may draw more in the future tho haha
How did you two discover your love of Sofia the First or lolicon/taboo stuff in general?
Ah! Here’s separate answers from both of us!
Elde’s answer:
To pin down an exact date on being a lolicon is kind of difficult. I feel like I popped out of the
womb constantly seeking young girls like young Disney girls or pkmn girls. I just thought if it as
a normal thing to be interested in lolis bc uhhh well they’re cute right? Who could hate them?
I felt I was fairly open about it until like 2015 tumblr when I started to get callouts about my
spicier pokespe fanart and tbh I didn’t react very well and I tried to keep that interest low key.
Just thought it was stupid for ppl to get weirdly aggravated about it all off a sudden and it did
not do my head any good. It’s just nerve wracking to see ur follows casually reblog how loli and
yaoi is the ultimate evil bc uhhh.
Started to open up about it when I got into ok ko but I was still feeling hesitant bc tumblr brain
did not ease up at all even when ppl moved to twitter. I felt like eyes were on me at all times. I
wish I can say I was built better but a mix of that, highly stressful irl matters, and being
unmedicated will do that to you.
Stf I felt was the series where I become more comfortable with being open about being a
lolicon. I was still nervous bc you still had ppl spouting tired statements about how it’s ok they
ship cedfia bc they have Sofia as an adult unlike the sickos. but whatever screw off. loli forever.
As for how I got into stf I saw rly cute fanart when it started around like 2012 and i thought
Cedric’s design was adorably charming and perfect lol. Didn’t bother to start watching until like
2020 tho. My friend font was pitching the show extremely well making some tantalizing posts
that I had to look into it. Perfect time to get into a series bc I felt I was getting tired of pkmns
everythin and lockdowns and reduced work hours = binging!
Stf cleansed my brain I feel. I feel like back then I was just a weird toxic mess not rly able to
actually enjoy myself in fandom and have fun picking apart the text as text and not some weird
wishful thinking to forcibly try to conform when to my line of thought ahaha. Funny thing to say
about a Disney Junior tv show but yep. Allowed me to let me use my head and cock simultaneously

My answer: I watched Sofia the First after seeing how much elde seemed to like it! It looked very cute so I wanted to play with and talk to elde about it! It did not disappoint and was very easy to get into! It was a big surprise that the interest stuck so long cuz we were both rly into pokespe (the rbgy chapters the most) for years beforehand. The cedfia dynamic simply hit in a very cathartic and fulfilling way! It was unexpected to find that in a baby show lmoa (I grew up in a time when even cartoons for older kids had a habit of being too simple or too unforgiving in the way villain relationships were handled so it’s like oh wow this was just already out there??? It’s a more common thing nowadays to see such subversions but I think it’s still very impressive for the time and especially for the demographic!)
Idk when exactly I got into loli lmoa I have always simply liked young girl characters and wanted to see them fawned over and to be kissed! When I learned of the terms loli/lolicon I was probably like 10 or 12? while looking up manga terms and genres on Wikipedia lmoa. I don’t remember when “taboo” interests came around either since I had always been thinking of weird and off putting stuff since I was a kid (it started more as a “ewww wouldn’t it be grossed if this happened?” Type fascination when I was small and then those weird what ifs just turned sexual as I entered my preteens lmoa) Then I found I got on the internet and found the words for such things and was like wow! other ppl also think about the same weird things I did.
There was a phase during my tumblr years where i wanted to try to be “less problematic”. It was mostly in just shying away from incest and lolishota because ppl I looked up to started to look down on that kind of stuff. (It had me coping in such an embarrassing way now that I look back at my art during that phase aaaaaa) Eventually I learned it’s ok that I can’t be for everyone so the most I can do actually is just make sure there’s warnings at the least and hope ppl who need them will heed them. Even after that it still took a while to get fully comfy in being fully free on main again. Finding a circle of artists on twitter that were very open and free creatively was very inspiring and helpful to me personally cuz I was like “wow they’re so cool and their arts so beautiful! I want to be like them!”
when will u consider opening up commissions? i’d love to see one of my otps in your style it’s too cuteeee 💕
Ahh thank you so much! At the moment I’m still unable to take commissions! It’s uncertain right now when exactly ill be able to but eventually in the future! (Ah I’m embarrassed I keep having to promise “later later” but I hope you’ll be patient with me!)
If it's okay to ask, how long have you and elde been a couple?
It’s ok ye! After this year it will have been 11 years!
Gwahh I didn't know you like FF7!! I need to hear all your FF7 ships nao
Ooh oki! My big fav is Sephiroth/Cloud!
A lot of my ships involve Cloud (like with Tifa,Aerith,Beret, and Zack)
I also like Aerith/Tifa!
How have you been? do you want to share something? just use this question to say whatever you want✌
I’ve been very well!! I got to hang out with elde yesterday and today!! So I’m very happy! But very sad rn cuz today is the last day :( Miss holding their hand already :(
idk if this has been asked before but tell us your favorite ships :D
From anything? Or something specific? (Lmoa I’m a multishiper so the list would be too long if I tried to list every ship so I’ll just list the big otps)
Big otps I have rn are Cedfia, Shroudcest , Malilia…recently finished dunmeshi and I like any combo of laios/marcille/falin! The big pokemon otps are Cyrus/Dawn/Cynthia and (Pokespe) Red/giovanni
you know how sometimes show creators like the fandom's ships (artists/writers from a show giving like to fanarts of some ships)
do you know if something like that has ever happened with cedfia?
Oh I wish so omg
I think just having them not publicly condemn it is fine enough! a very low bar but with how rabid fandom spaces can be to creators currently it’s the most I can ask for — (lmoa with how they’re episodes with them are written tho I bet there was a few secret shippers on staff)
i remember being like 12 and hating STF every time i saw it come on the tv cus i thought it was 'embarrassing' and now im here at 20 jumping for joy and cheering every time i see that beautiful lanky magical middle aged man and his child gf on my timeline i love u and ur bfs art so much
