Hello, welcome to my journal. Want to know a bit more?

[moonvoice]

Edited: September 2025

Hi! I'm Pia (they/he), AuDHD fandom participant who you might know as not_poignant or thespectaclesofthor over at AO3, professional author, non-professional everything else except sometimes artist.

1. I am happy for people to subscribe, especially for artwork and stuff. Most other content is under access lock. You're welcome to join! If you grant access and I like the cut of your jib, chances are I'll grant access too. :)
If your journal is empty or you haven't updated (publically) in years, please introduce yourself if you want.

2. I feel strongly about trigger warnings and cutting things for sensitive content. I will try and catch a lot of things here under cuts. I have endeavoured to make this a safe space. However this is first and foremost a safe space for *me*, which means sometimes I am posting when I'm not in the right frame of mind to trigger warn or place things under cuts.


Things you should know about me, if you are considering reading / friending this journal

1. I'm a creative person. I talk about writing, art, cross-stitch, and numerous other ridiculous hobbies.

2. I'm not well. I mean really, I'm not well. I have GERD, Hereditary PGL1 -> SDHD, fibromyalgia, joint hypermobility syndrome, type 2 diabetes, NAFLD, severe TMD, IBS-D type, Sjogren's, intermittent allergic and stress-based eczema, PTSD etc. I see a lot of specialists to manage this stuff. I have been diagnosed with ADHD (Mixed-leaning-hyperactive) and ASD2 (Autism).

3. I'm a pro-choice omnivore, transmasc NB (they/he), childfree, kinky, polyamorous acespec (who fucking knows though).

4. I'm a writer of trauma recovery, BDSM, hurt/comfort, whump, and angst with a happy ending. Specialising in enemies (or rivals) to lovers, heavy worldbuilding, long serials, and consistent fidelity (I finish my longfics). thespectaclesofthor is my fanfiction account (Currently writing for Baldur's Gate 3 (Raphael/Astarion) and Stardew Valley (Sebastian/Alex), and not_poignant is my original fiction account (Currently writing the Underline series). I write problematic content that riles up anti-shippers and I will happily bring the receipts if you think fiction has a 1:1 correlation with reality.

5. I like media. A lot. If you easily dismiss whole schools of research and think TV (and pop culture) destroys the brain, is stupid, and people shouldn't ever watch it; you're probably not gonna like me very much! I've got a BA/MA Comm. If you think that violent media causes violence irl, we're gonna have a problem. If you think people writing taboos in fiction is a crime, show yourself out.

6. Actual details. I live in Western Australia, I'm in my 40s, I've been on Patreon for 10~ years. I am polyamorous and in three long-term relationships with wonderful people. I once had two cats named Maybe and Moet, and now have a chronically ill and disabled dog called Tobermory, whose birthday is on Samhain (the northern hemisphere one, not the southern hemisphere one). I lazily practice the Ovate grade in OBOD when I can be persuaded to give a shit, my spirituality is one embedded in action (gardening, etc.) rather than online spaces these days (shock horror). I am active on Tumblr at not-poignant for all writing nonsense and excerpts, and capillata for fandom + memes + shitposting etc. I enjoy occasional TTRPG, reading manhwa, most aspects of kink and heavy kink, and collect Sank the Child resin toys as a reward for finishing very large serials (god so many of them are over 200k, I wish I could stop, but I cannot).

Hi, why did you remove me from your f-list?

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Hi, I wrote about it here:

http://moonvoice.livejournal.com/1109232.html

[eclyptical.livejournal.com]

Hello. Would you be my friend? I am interested in all aspects of what you post.

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Hi, I think 'friends list' is misleading, since it can take me months to years to consider someone a friend. But I'll add you and we can go from there. :)

[redsixwing.livejournal.com]

Hello! Linked in from Shimmerhawk's journal, and f-listed you for convenient lurking. You've got some really impressive art, here.
I'm interested in crazy spiritual stuff, too; in fact mostly that's what I write about, though my journal is under f-lock.
Thanks for the lovely open posts.

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Hi, added you back! And I've added you to my Wildspeak filter, which has alllll the crazy spiritual stuff. *grin*

[zeeth_kyrah]

Hello. Dragon and healer with a neoshamanic angle; I've been following Lupa's journal for quite a while, and finally looked in on yours (and wondered "why am I not following this person").

I might be able to help with your darkness issues.

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Added you, feel free to check out some of the new tags, like ws - wildspeak (for shamanism entries) and filter - ptsd (for that side of things). :)

[bodlon.livejournal.com]

I'm sort of here for the art and for the everything else? Er, yes. Hello!

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Added you to Life, Wildspeak (shamanism) and PTSD - if you want off anything, let me know! :)

[amethyst-clan.livejournal.com]

azhure mentioned you, and your art is wonderful and I would love to read all about your life. Even the "crazy" stuff. :)

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Heya, added you! Put you on my PTSD/DID filters, if you want off, just let me know. :)

[sabr.livejournal.com]

Kazi recommended our friendship :)

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Hey you like german shepherds, and lots of other cool things! I'm in. I've added you to my Life filter, if you want on my PTSD or shamanism filter let me know,. :)

[gesigewigus.livejournal.com]

Heyo,

I hope you don't mind if I add you. Makhsihed has been suggesting we get acquainted (at least to me), for over a year now.

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

I've added you! If you want off any of the filters I've added you to (Shamanism/PTSD/Life) just let me know. :) It's good to meet you!

[emberleo.livejournal.com]

For what it's worth, while it was indeed your gorgeous artwork that drew me here, all of the other topics you list are somewhere between "definitely ok with me" and "actively interesting to me". I would be happy to be able to read whatever you are comfortable showing me, but I know I'm a stranger, and that you may have no interest in my stuff.

If you want to add me to your "friends" list, I'm interested, especially in Shamanism and in Psychology. If not, it's all good. If you do add me, and want to be in my Pagan filter, or my (rarely used) other opt-in filters, just let me know.

--Ember--

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Heya, I've added you, if you want off any filters just let me know. I'd be happy to be on your pagan filter as well. :)

[tinydaisy.livejournal.com]

Hey, I've heard such good things about you from azhure and well, I thought I'd add you to my friends list. I hope that's ok with you? I'm attempting to be more updatey and more friendly these days...

It's good to meet you! I've added you back. You're on my life / shamanism/pagan filter but if you want off them, just let me know! :)

[gloryanah.livejournal.com]

May I please add you? If not I completely understand and there will be no harm nor foul. From reading the above we have some things in common. Plus, I'm also on the Friends list of amethyst Clan and Stonetalker. I've seen you comment on Amethyst Clan's journal most recently.

Thanks =}

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Of course! If you don't mind I might wait a little while to add you back, mostly because my journal is at that borderline at the moment where I can barely keep up with it as it is! :)

Hi! Followed you over here from the Fringe comm...subscribed because your art is lovely! My journal is a combination of X-Files stuff and other fannish stuff and occasional handwaving on the subject of my kid and my job and such things. Also, your line about "two metres of surgical scars" resonated (er...I might hit five feet? I've never measured. At least four).
