Okay, so I just got on a few minutes ago my Tumblr account and I see a new message on my profile.
So, I go on it to see to my astonishment and honestly suspension that The voice actor of Raine Whispers themselves: Avi Roque, had messaged me this!⬇️
Hi there! I'm Avi Roque, the voice actor for Raine Whispers. I know it is random to be reaching out here, but a friend and a fan of The Owl House shared with me some stories you've been writing on Wattpad incorporating Raine Whispers. I wasn't sure how to reach out to you to chat more but my friend located your tumblr. Which I also didn't have and created one just now to connect with you. I just want to say I love that fans, such as yourself, are writing, creating and finding ways to keep The Owl House alive. I'm sure you're a wonderful writer with quite the following, which is awesome! I also understand that in a story of yours there are different pronouns for Raine. Now, full transparency, I'm not on Wattpad and haven't read this story. I am certainly not writing you to attack you. I am only reaching out to see if there is a way to reflect Raine's pronouns (they/them) in your story. As a person that is Transgender and Non-Binary, who uses they/them pronouns, getting this acting opportunity to voice Raine was a dream come true and really helped me to feel affirmed, seen, valued and respected. I hope you take this into consideration as I know the importance and impact having an animated character with they/them pronouns means to not only me but to so many. I also apologize if there are others who have not been so kind and have "called you out" on this matter. Again, I am reaching out from the kindness of my heart and hope that you can find room in yours to make that change that seems little but is actually so big. Thank you ❤️
My response⬇️
Yes, I do use they/them pronouns now in my story after doing throughout research. A lot of people love Raine including me, I love music was even in choir back in school plus suffered from horrible stage fright. Just like Raine plays the violin, I use my voice to create beautiful music
Reply back⬇️
Totally not a prank but I would understand why you would want to verify. I think that's awesome that you love Raine, have a music background and can relate to Raine's stage fright as well. Above all, thank you for changing Raine's pronouns to they/them. That is wonderful! Keep using your voice to create beautiful music and have a fantastic week!
Now, I don't know if this is truly real and actually happening so here is the link to the post on my Tumblr page, and again Oh my god! I am still in shock here!
