The LGBTQ+ Community Chat :) Part 2!

I feel like we need to assign family roles in this chat

I want to be the niece that disappears for months at a time and comes back with questionable souvenirs from across the globe and nobody actually know who or where my parents are

(irl though I proudly hold the title of "gay cousin" in my conservative mormon family aha :D I plan on coming out to all of them this summer at my grandparent's 50th anniversary)

Ok but I’m the gay struggling playwright actor/symphony musician who just can’t get his big break

What about me?

I’m the parental figure who is never there in person due to work but is still only a message away; who loves and supports everyone even then they do not support or love themselves, who is also struggling with self-love.

I'm the friend who occasionally comes out of their basement, but will gladly have company in the basement with them

I'm the grandma who bakes way too many sweets, knits cozy clothes for the family, and is honestly way too old for this shit.

Oh, also my basement has 2 rooms, the room I have for company with lots of sofas and a kitchenette with a full fridge that's always full of snacks and drinks, with a little TV and a coffee table, and my personal room, which is mostly taken up by a big, comfy bed with lots of pillows and blankets, and it has a walk-in closet that I put all my fandom-related stuff in

Bec: hospitable grandma who does usual grandma stuff
Lee: yes parental figure that we all love
Reed: chaotic mom friend
Ash: Basement friend that will probably steal your socks
MJ: p l e a s e g e t t h i s c h i l d s u p e r v i s i o n

I'll have a false wall in the kitchenette that leads to a little hidey-hole for you, it has access to a secret door in the back of the fridge and every cabinet

:O

I live with you now

I have a hidey hole and everything

I'll just be that weird ass aunt who's ready to help you hide a body without questions

I have no idea how I'm related to anyone, but boy I sure do exist when there are free food and gifts
The cool uncle no one really visits but will give you cash for every time a present is expected
Who, when asked, will listen for hours when you want to rant about a fandom, and will be happy to let you play DnD at their house and make the treats to bribe the DM

i'll be the, like, great-aunt who lives abroad (since i seem to be the only continental european in this chat lol) and barely ever checks in with the family. all the other authority figures secretly hate me for my lack of discipline. i give the kids candy and junk food behind their parents' backs and let them stay up past their bedtime playing mario kart when i babysit. the energy of that one vine where the dude is rooting through a pile of clothes and then turns around and sees the newborn baby on the floor and goes "oh fuck. there it is"
