News: Feb 26, 2025 Show

Feb 26th:A new bill in Arizona is making its way through the Senate that would force sites like e621 to implement mandatory age verification for all users—or face potential lawsuits. This system would require third-party vendors to verify every user’s age through a government database. Not only is this a massive violation of privacy, but it also introduces serious risks, including identity theft through phishing schemes and other malicious methods. Worse still, we would have no control over ensuring that user data is permanently deleted after verification.

Since e621 operates out of Arizona, this law would almost certainly impact us if it passes. If you want to help ensure that we can continue serving you without being forced to collect personal information, we urge you to contact Arizona’s senators and ask them to vote NO on this bill.

Please help spread the word about this issue and encourage others to take action.

Description

Titled "Childhood Love"
From the artist:

Cute Centaur AU Arts! The Quartz family are wealthy fur traders in Strawberry and the Bates would visit in the summer to trade goods for furs, so while the parents talked, little Rose and Victor would play. It started when Rose was playing in the garden and got cornered by a snake! She was too far away from home so no one could hear her cries.. until little Victor showed up and picked up the harmless garden snake with a stick and tossed it over the fence. After that point, the two were inseparable, playing in the creak and sleeping curled up with each other under a three. Victor gave her dandelions, not knowing they were weeds, but Rose still loved them all the same. She weaved little rings out of dandelions and placed them on their fingers, and they agreed that when they got older, they would get married someday.

But like all good things, the fun time in the sun had to end..

Rose's step mother wasn't too fond of her husband's daughter getting to close to a common tavern owner's son, and advised the Bates to not bring him to the house next time they come to trade.. So Rose and Victor saw each other again... Until, Rose is an adult and decides to run away from home XD Victor sees her missing poster, and concerned for his old childhood friend's wellbeing, decides to go find her.. but when finally meeting each other face to face, Rose didn't recognize the sweet boy she knew all those years ago.. and Rose was NOT the same sweet little girl Victor knew, so to save himself the embarrassment, he refrained from telling her that he knows her.

It took Rose about a year to actually find out who Victor was and well.... you can kind of guess how it went from there~ One of my favorite tropes: A childhood friends to lovers~
