@cassandraclare I’d love to see #ironsisters runes! I asked @far-eviler about it and she said to see if you’d commission one so I could see it and possibly get it tattooed.
Alright, lets clear this up. Menstrual pain is symptomatic of a greater act. The uterus walls thicken than shed a layer. That is a whole lot of physical material growing in your person and then tearing apart. And the act takes place over weeks, symptoms can show up as early as a week before a menstrual flow displaying in back pain, strain in thighs, stomach cramps, nerve strain and even migraines. These symptoms can continue even and up to a week after a menstrual flow.
That’s weeks.
Not a single one but THREE weeks out of the month where the uterus is processing a cycle that can lead up to pain as small as a 1–3-day mild cramp session to a 3 weeklong pain roller coaster that has been sometimes interchangeable with labor pains.
Meanwhile their expected to behave copasetic all four weeks of the month. In anticipation of the rando time they might one day decide to be kid ready.
Is there a higher calling?
Actually, the real question you should be asking is ‘Was the Iratze Rune made for any other reason?’
…don’t get me started on hangovers, @cassandraclare ;)
Wanting to get the self-love rune tattooed. But I wanted to inquire on your inspiration for the design. I suppose this applies to all of your runes, how do you decide what they'll look like?

Thanks for the good question Anon. I’m honored you’re considering putting it permanently on your person ♥ .
When Cassie asked me to create a “Love” Rune I immediately thought it was too vague of an idea. With a translator as a parent, I was raised in a household with a number of languages. I knew the translation of “Love” to have many meanings. After working with tattoos, it’s significant to me what people put on their bodies. So, I feel fiercely about all my runes.
IF you want more details about How I design their looks, I suggest you go back into my Q&A’s. I take a deep dive there, it is a topic I enjoy but I’ve covered it a couple of times now. For someone to get a tattoo, including yourself, I know the Rune is as much to you as it is to me. Maybe you’ll share a pic with me when you get it done!
Is there a way to donate to you for your symbols drawn for the Shadowhunters book series? I just learned you were never compensated by the show for them and I have tattoos and wanted to find a way to support you monetarily.

Thank you, anon. I’m shook by your kindness. (◐ω◑ )
It’s difficult to rationalize what those knobhead TV people got up to & it make gestures like this overwhelming. That aside, I’m ALWAYS moved when someone reaches out to say they’ve gotten a tattoo! That makes me feel like part of their story. You’ve paid your tattooist for that; you owe me nothing… altho I wouldn’t say no to a picture maybe. That’s really enuff for me.
I do want to acknowledge your gesture, so I’ve added a Donation Button to the frontpage of far-eviler.com not because I want to expect things going forward but because your gesture humbled me.
I have no way to predict what the shared experience between creator & fan will be in these uncertain times, conventions are unlikely and commissions are hard earned, but every little sign of connection there is it deserves to be acknowledged & not pooped on, like some big named studios are wont to do.
@animenyc is 2 weeks away y'all . I’ll actually be there all weekend in the exhibition hall with friends @otakutimesus . not 💯sure what I’ll be doing but it’s gonna be a blast ! if it’s on your way come visit, bring coffee ☕️ (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4WW2N5Atu6/?igshid=rno37ko9x6ir
I made icons like these last year, but I wanted to improve the quality and add more flags. If there’s one that’s not in the folder and you want it, you can ask me for it (even combinations). We’re all valid!
Okay, Feck it CHILD! I keep
seeing this post POP UP! on my dash, then Go away! [DELETED] Unacceptable. Pride is
acceptance and the courage to keep it, Worts & all.
As the pansexual, demisexual designer of that

there “Angelic Rune" will be pleased with ease to tell you, that precious
piece almost never happened. It was a pass. Not by Cassie, but by Me. I thought it fiercely weak
alongside what I’d lined up for Shadowhunters, but I hung onto it because
its uniqueness and roots had already dug its way into my art-heart.
That being
said; 10+yrs later, some DemaGodGraphic of readers, viewers and fans later the
runt of the design litter has outstripped them all. I take pride in that, not
because I think it’s the best rune I’ve designed (still don’t) or stylized or
boldest, nuanced… I could go on, but because the knucklehead has always been pretty great. Now, what
you’ve done with it is great. What you’re doing to it, with it and what you’re doing for it is
great.
Take it from the source.
There would be an absence, felt
but an unknown, if you keep hiding this something you obviously want to fly
high… So, I’m just going to put This. Right. Here.
Hi I just saw your posts about not being credited for the runes on Shadowhunters and while that is really awful and they for sure should have asked you for help when they started making up runes for the show, some of the things said were really hurtful and upsetting as a fan of the show and the cast. Most of the fandom would be upset too if they knew about this, we could have tried to help you get the recognition you deserve. Freeform is the enemy here the show and cast don't deserve hate.
The studios behavioral choices toward myself and co. ranged from unprofessional to vile. Attempts to handle things discreetly were met with callousness. Their mishandling of many, many things led to the shows laughably inevitable downfall (much to my relief). I wish I felt as though fans would have had my back, in all honesty I felt they were so hyped for the TV Series content they were blind to my hardship and various other failings. I don’t know if I had a chance to do things differently, I doubt I’d have bitched about it publicly… I doubt it would have made a difference. Frankly feel nothing would have saved the show from the get-go, but my edge of insight is different. Skewed certainly.
I’ve said not one negative word against the cast or crew who I’ve had no personal contact with and have only had negative things to say toward the dark corners of the fandom that followed in Freeforms’ suit and manipulated my runes toward their personal benefit. With such a MASSIVE example put forth I can’t say that I’m surprised but I can say that I’m hella disappointed.
