anytime i see a picture/video of miles and alex laughing or simply staring at each other during taotu or in 2011/2012, i always think about this line from @stereobone’s absolutely gorgeous ‘the italian job’
‘their love was so enormous neither of them knew where to put it’
anyways there really is too much interracial couples with white ppl propaganda going on rn cause I've been seeing white ppl left and right for MONTHS claim any black person either critiquing the abundance of this existing in media rn because it is not only a marketing ploy in some cases, they have to include white people because of the thing white people do where they force themselves to see themselves in anything they watch (which explains why they turn away from things that don't have a white lead because "they cant relate", or they have to change a character that isn't white to be more appealing to them in fandom)
but it is also done so white people can feel better about themselves by making themselves believe they are not complacent in white supremacy because they have a black partner or simply because ppl don't want to ship a black character with a white one (this month its been about spiderverse obvs) because they simply don't want to or because in the comics a certain character has a black partner are just a bad as racists like WOAH who gave you the authority to speak on shit like this?
also letting you know tonight that patrick/myungdae, despite preferring more masculine clothing, is still very much non-binary aka if hyuk his partner called him babygirl, he would be very happy. he would die of embarrassment yes, but it would please him a lot ♥
ugh most of u are wrong in the instances when u critique romance for being unnecessary in fiction (it’s really not most of the time) but I do kinda hate it when writers don’t trust themselves to write platonic dynamics & it shows. I love romance I love friends to lovers but it’s sooo so stupid when male female friendships that were never romantic coded get shoehorned into romance for no reason when the platonic dynamic was already strong & complex on its own 🙄
ϟ tell me what moment/scene in [fic] made you sicko in the window.jpg to read and i’ll tell you which scene made me feel that way to write
For ME my sicko in the window moment in made a hundred good stories was Lewis cockwarming Alex so lewis could fuck him again… GOD Alex did not know what what he was in the middle of
(fic ask meme!)
THANK YOU 😭😭😭 genuinely coming up with that scene was what tipped me over from "maybe i'll play around with this idea and see what happens" to "oh no now i have to finish this." like i literally looked back at my first brainstorming doc and there's a bullet point that says "engine failures, tire blowouts, coming too early - the body as machine" that's bolded and underlined lmao like. apparently 1-year-ago-me also felt insane sicko in the window about the whole thing too
in the interest of giving a different answer though i will say that i did feel crazy while writing all the little seb/lewis moments during the threesome (special shoutout to seb fingering lewis while he cockwarms and also ofc lewis's mini breakdown before he sucks seb off lol). i LOVE outsider pov especially for a relationship like this with so much history where you can pick and choose little details that never actually explicitly say anything, but are so clearly dancing around the edges of something that it becomes very obvious what the shape of the thing they're not saying is.
just got a notification saying my copy of the rwrb collector’s edition shipped and it’s gonna be here in a few days I CAN’T BELIEVE I WILL BE HOLDING HENRY’S POV IN MY HANDS IN A FEW DAYS
i started thinking about all the story lines i hated the most in glee and can i just say the glee project was so unserious for giving those ass story lines to BOTH the winners of s1 like how mad r u if u WON THE SHOW and yet one of the runner ups gets a recurring role for the REST OF THE SERIES that is endearing in some ways and wildly offensive in others just like the whole show, while you get a seven episode story arc that is just “irish kid seduces girls with lucky charms yes the actual cereal” and “jesus kid makes out with quinn and dips” right. and then you’re rubbing your hands together bc the s2 winner doesn’t know what’s coming, they’re not gonna know they’re not guaranteed shit if ryan murphy gets bored of them except then the s2 winner ALSO becomes a part of the core cast for the whole show and ali stoker goes on to use her bit part to launch an iconic broadway career. like wouldn’t you be fucking livid
Not my usual type of post but I just need to say it somewhere;
I just finished reading Alex, Approximately by Jenn Bennett and like. First off I have a new favorite book. Second, HOLY CRAP CAN I PLEASE HAVE A PORTER. LIKE PLEASE THIS BOOK WAS SO GOOD AND THE CHARACTERS WERE SO WELL WRITTEN AND THEY DIDN’T HAVE ANY MISUNDERSTANDINGS THAT COULD’VE BEEN EASILY RESOLVED BECAUSE THEY MOSTLY JUST TALK IT OUT LIKE NORMAL PEOPLE EXCEPT FOR THE REVEAL BUT YOU EVEN END UP SIDING WITH PORTER BECAUSE COME ON AND LIKE IT WAS ALL VERY WEIRDLY REALISTIC AND OHHHHH MY GOSH IT WAS JUST SO GOOD
ALSO THE MAILBOX SCENE. THE MAILBOX SCENE. PEOPLE THINK I CARE ABOUT THE SEX SCENES NO THE MAILBOX SCENE I AM NOT OKAY
Join me and fellow YouTuber @hkthatgffan for our exclusive interview with Alex Hirsch, the creator of Gravity Falls.
Will the artbook ever be revived? Are there any plans for future Gravity Falls comics, or any other comic ideas that didn't make the final result? What's the story behind the line change between editions of Journal 3? Who is the intended identity of the baby in A Tale of Two Stans?
Get Alex's responses to our questions, in not one, but TWO separate hour-long videos, releasing to each of our channels this late March! April 12!

3D Rendering in video by @brightdrawings
----
[Video Description: A 3D render of a red-plaid-patterned question mark floats and spins against a starry background, coming closer as dramatic music plays. White text appears on screen reading "Think of your most pressing Gravity Falls Questions…" "...and imagine finally having the answers." The voice of YouTuber HanaHyperfixates reads
"Did you know about the changed line between editions of Journal 3?"
"Was there ever another reunion planned between Fiddleford and Ford, aside from the one in Weirdmaggedon Part III?"
"Alex, what do the red rectangles mean in Journal 3?"
Then the voice of Alex Hirsch, creator of Gravity Falls, responds "That's a good question."
When the plaid question mark stops spinning, very close to the screen, a light blue triangle appears, and the screen fades to aqua, with text overlayed reading "An interview with Alex Hirsch, creator of Gravity Falls/ One part of a two-part video interview, featuring That GF Fan/ Coming soon." The text then fades to include the art described above. /end video description]
