No Next Step

by ForeverQueer

Part of the "Representation Asks" collection, sparked by this Tumblr post.This request: "non-binary asexual"Note: The song is “Sa Yo’” by South Border, and you can find a live version on YouTube. The language it’s being sung in is Tagalog, which is one of the many languages spoken in the Philippines. You can find the original lyrics here (link), and can translate them with Google Translate to see roughly what they mean in English.For a discussion about gender-inclusive terms to describe people from the Philippines, please check out this intra-community Twitter thread by Kevin Nadal.The name Tala is Tagalog in origin (although there are many different cultures with this name), coming from the goddess of the morning and evening star in Tagalog mythology.

Moana (2016)

Somebody Worthy of Being

by orphan_account

A selfish trickster. That's all Tala's ever thought of Maui, because that's all she's ever seen him be. He stole the Heart of Te Fiti, he locked Moana in a cavern in an attempt to steal her boat, and he abandoned her to the sea when she needed him most.But what she doesn't know about Maui is that he's got a soft side. That he actually, truly does care for Moana, and that he's willing to go out of his way if it means that she gets to be happy. And as someone who's only grown up with stories depicting Maui as malicious, as someone who cares for nobody but himself, it's pretty shocking to Tala when she witnesses this softer side of Maui with her own two eyes.

Wounded Soldiers
