I really wish this had came out better cause it means so much to me（＞人＜；） but this will have to do. My submission for the Contest held in support of Coffee ^-^ by LuluCalliope and AuslaeHistorian . I know we're only allowed to have one submission, so I plan to draw some more things to show my support, but just not have them as official submissions.

(I'm so nervous this seems trashy, I really tired guys, sometimes it just doesn't work out like I wanted .·´¯`(>▂<)´¯`·. )

Now onto a few notes that I think are important to say:
- I think it's important for us all to remember that abuse, assault, and harassment can happen to anyone. Doesn't matter your gender, age, ethnicity, race, etc. And also, it can come from anyone, even the ones we love.
- We shouldn't compare trauma, because it will always end up making you feel invalid and like "it could have been worse".
- going with above, don't let anybody tell you what you went through wasn't trauma, wasn't abuse, wasn't 'x'. It's not for anyone to decide or decipher but you. It's how YOU Feel and what YOU want to call it.
- Assault, abuse, harassment, are not jokes. Don't treat them like a joke, don't treat this like "drama", this is people's lives.
- with above, don't try to excuse it by saying "it was a joke", it's not a joke, no one is laughing. If you do it, "as a joke", well guess what, you're just an awful idiot. and again, it "being a joke" is no excuse.
- Everyone has different boundaries and will react differently to different experiences. Make sure you know someone's boundaries before you do anything, even in good faith. And remember a person always has the right to change their mind and boundaries. And just because they said "yes" before, doesn't mean they aren't saying "no" now.
- remember victims, it is never your fault.
- if you were a kid, or they had higher power, and you initiated it, it doesn't matter. It's still their responsibility as the adult, as the one with the power to say no. It is not your fault, so sooner you can come to terms with that, the sooner you can heal.

now then, onto a new age friends and followers. Let's all do our best and share our support.
