Hi, I am Loutre

a month ago by TheOtterInside to c/trans

Hey y’all so huh, not sure if its okay for me to publish this here and I’d understand if you delete the post.

I don’t know where to start. 3 months have passed since I created this account and its been incredibly hard for me to come write these lines (it may be nonsense, sorry, I do my best to be coherent).

So, few days ago I found the courage to come out as a woman to my fedi-friends (I love them all so much) and now here I am.
For the obvious part, I am TheOtterInside or, shorter, Loutre, but I currently have no chosen name Id like to show.
I have been lurking {lemmy,piefed}.blahaj.zone for months almost every single day as y’all here have helped me without even knowing. You have offered me both hope and joy. Thank you.
I am a rather introverted girl and am not comfortable enough to state my location (well, this one you can easily guess it), my face and most of my personal informations.

If there is anything you’d like to know please do ask. Worse that could happen is me answering "not comfy" (or a variation).

With luv, Loutre

Sweetie you don't owe anyone here information about you, you're welcome to be and share as much or as little as you want. Be kind to yourself ok?

You are welcome here. You are valid.

Can't find the words to thank you as much as I wish for these kind words, for telling me I am valid

iiiiiiiiiih, thank you so much !

Worried is kinda a second name for me, I’ll do my best to relax.

I love how much everyone seem to be so confident here while I just realised how difficult it can be to actually share feelings. Luv you all.

Hey girl, welcome!

My first post on this account was venting like, a week ago in the comments on a meme post >.< - I'm sure your normal introduction is fine here lmao.

To relate some; It took me months to come to a name I liked. It's taking me much longer to be happy enough with myself to feel comfortable posting pictures. But one day I swear, I will be posting in trans_joy, and I'm sure you may be able to as well - give yourself the time you need (if you ever want to of course, I totally get there are other reasons to not want to as well)! :D

Sending hugs your way! <3

P.S., I am absolutely intrusive enough to ask - what are your favorite games? :3

Heeeey ! :3

Thank you, I can’t wait to see the pictures you will share in trans_joy ! And I am totally gonna send you some otter-love the kind noone know they actually need in life.

How come you know I like games ?! … Oh, yeah I see how.

There you go (unordered) :

  • Dead Space (did I mention I was some kind of weird)
  • Undertale (nuff said)
  • The Witcher3
  • Cyberpunk
  • Souls and Soulslike made in FromSoftware (muahahahahaha !)
  • Metroid, Prime and Dread (ever wanted to have that Samus energy ? I do)
  • GuildWars (that’s where a good share of my life disappeared, having fun)
  • Life is Strange (I realized years later that I cracked my egg playing this game, I totally lived it)

Omg, it'll be a while before I can share in trans_joy unfortunately ;-; - thanks though!

To think there is such a thing as otter love nobody knew they needed is heresy! I love otters, I have half a dozen otter plushies I was gifted annually as a small child - absolute cutest aquatic critters, I swear! Otter love appreciated <3

LMAO

Undertale is definitely my fav from your list lol. I love the Life is Strange games, but I have yet to play beyond LiS 2. I've replayed Before the Storm more times than I can remember. I love Metroid Dread, been meaning to play Prime for years now... my first Metroid was Super Metroid on the SNES Classic and holy crap that game is one of my favorites ever in terms of atmosphere and is something I always refer to as like, the best way to start a story! Can't say much as to the others personally, but I've heard good things about all of them.

You tried Deltarune yet?

TheOtterInside 2 points a month ago

No worry I mean whenever you feel ready to share and then proceed to share: Imma show up and throw a "effin pretty cuuuuuute :3" kind of message. Would it be alright ?

You.Are.A.True.Otter.LOVER :D !!!! I wish I had otter plushies ^^' …

I never had the courage to do anything that a peaceful run of the game, well I mean I did try to start a genocide one but I miserably failed cause I actually did not want to (…). Last time I tried Deltarune only the first chapter was out. It was cool and all but as anything else at the time I did not follow up. I should now :3

In LiS, I really really identified to Maxine for some reasons and did feel for her throughout the game. Heck, how could I not realize what I was really feeling for all these years (~10 years!!) ? Welp.

Well… I initially said I could offer you some otter love when you share. But I changed my mind ’bout it, I will give it to you right NOW ! °w°

There you go, I hereby declare that you deserve all of the otter luv of the world! :3
