just saw your recent posts and omg i am SO sorry you're going through this. i was in a discord server with jayce and I became wary of him when I came across his older art where he tried emulating your style very closely. his profile is now gone so I have no way of reaching out to him but I do hope he somehow eventually apologizes to you for causing this distress 😞

malenjoyer answered:

I have gained access to his discord ID, which I may publicly post and ask moderators of bigger DC discords/ ship centric discords who are aware of this situation to ban his ID, which cannot be changed and is linked to his account. I will keep it on all my social media profile for the rest of time if this is how it is.

Some moderators have reached out to me that he may have been doing this for over a year already and befriending people under my identity which is horrible for me AND everyone who trusted him because they thought that was me.

If this continues, I may paywall my future work because to me, the more I learn, the more this impersonation feels like stalker behavior. The reason I don’t join fandom discords is because last time I did it, I got a bunch of stalkers who would monitor my online activity regularly. I’ve only recently come out of my shell and this happens… 😭😭

I've verified that the accounts sent to me are linked to the impersonator, jayce/ace/kon, by performing a server ban using my own discord.

778297461599895593 725647622001393736

Are both of his discord IDs.

I used carlbot but you can use any bot that allows pre ban of users. I'm still uncertain how to proceed in the future with this incident. For my mental health, I'm unsure if I am willing to post fanart publicly anymore after this.

Keep in mind, I know it seems like I'm overreacting, but I've already dealt with obsessive/stalker behavior before. I don't think I really want to do it again or deal with something similar, after I've tried so hard to recover from it and it seems like I have not recovered from it fully.

I don't want to take responsibility of activity of someone else pretending to be me for possibly almost a year.

I'm not really sure. Thank you for all the moderators that helped me out and the anons who reached out to me to provide information. I don't want anyone involved to feel like they participated in pushing me over the edge with this decision. I think it would hurt me more if I found out later or if I found I was suddenly responsible for a bunch of things I didn't do.

I do not use discord for fandom and I never will. Thanks for everyone's help.

hello! idk if you still use this acc but I wanted to ask if youre cool with people using your art as icons and banners with credit still? I have so much of your art saved from throughout your time posting but I dont want to use the archived art for my icon or banner if it makes you uncomfortable considering the situation!!!

Yes! It’s fine. I will probably bring some of it back since I brought some back on Instagram. I currently just don’t have very much time to do it on tumblr but I’m okay with icons and banners! Thanks for asking💙

outside of dc and marvel, do you have any comic reccomendations of your own?

I was trying to figure out how to answer this question but I realized I’m missing the most important information. I don’t know what you’d regularly read outside of DC/Marvel. Action? Romance? Mystery?

Are you looking for outside of the big 2, but still big like image comics or darkhorse? Or are you looking for indie, more niche stuff?

If you’re looking for indie and can support smaller comic artists, I would recommend following socials of: https://www.shortboxcomicsfair.com

ShortBox Comics Fair
ShortBox Comics Fair is a unique and innovative digital comics fair, where every exhibiting artist debuts a brand-new comic!

Personally on the top of my mind, my current favorite writers are: Zoe thorogood and Amy Chu.

Unfortunately, I don’t think their works are available to be read digitally, so you’d have to buy the book or check to see if your local library has it.

If you want to branch off DC/Marvel but you like the writing style of certain writers, you can check out their other works outside of DC/Marvel because they have often published solo works or for smaller IPs before getting into the big 2.

you don't have to reply to this! just wanted to say you don't need to apologize or anything for not posting like that! as ling as you're comfortable :) and good luck with your job!!!

Thank you! It just feels kinda awkward when I see notifications and people go on my blog and it’s just a residue of what happened.. 🥲 I still don’t know what to do with it or how to “fix” this in a sense.

I’m very appreciative of all the kind anons I get, even the ones I haven’t managed to reply to. My real life seems to be going towards a positive direction which I’m really happy about. I’m glad I get to help people at my job! : D

Thank you for this anon, it’s incredibly kind to send this

I’m starting to feel more comfortable posting art again so I may unprivate my old posts… but first let me try to secure this job 😩

Sorry I’m not replying to messages. I do see them. I’m answering some asks and posting a bit of random thought stuff on twitter but I’m feeling kind of like I’m retreating to my old hermit state of internet usage.

These past few weeks I haven’t had energy to do a lot of stuff. It currently takes a lot out of me to reply individually because I’m trying to secure a job for myself again. So a lot of my energy is put there and worrying about my finances and future…

Thank you for the support as always and I’ll try to respond as soon as I feel I can give a decent response to DMs.

As for art stuff, I thought about starting to post again but due to the recent AI stuff that was released about sketches being converted to lineart easily, I got a bit paranoid again so it might take a while. I’m reading comics between breaks and rediscovering my love for stories so that’s good

do you use patreon more often?? I love your art sm and would love to support you ( ≧∀≦)ノ !!

I use patreon more often to post finished pieces and future projects! Also when I eventually make character discord emotes they will be posted there to be downloaded! : )

In terms of activity, it’s probably twitter>Instagram>tumblr but I’m currently only comfortable with posting snippets of stuff I’m working on

if bruce kissed harvey would one side of his lip feel a pair of lips and the other side of the lip feel a stack of teeth?

Yes.. just another hurdle in the way of their love. Now I’m thinking about Harvey’s teeth being exposed to the elements. Would an act of love be helping him floss? What’s his dental plan like? We should probably give him a half face mask. Don’t want him to have dry lips and dry gums.

Do you like AU’s? Like reverse robins or the semi canon “justice league is evil” like, Bruce as owlman AU’s?

This might be boring of an answer but in terms of AUs.. the one I like the most is probably no capes.

Because I like the idea that even though they’re not heroes or vigilantes, they’d still try to do good in their own way. How do they interact with their community? Is it with kindness or did their past develop deep roots within who they are as a person causing them to behave irrationally? How do you resolve the trauma of being alive and having dead parents? Without the mental safety and temporary escape of being another person by night and yourself by day?
