Would yyou pllleeeeeaaaseee do velvet x male reader?? (any scenario) thx

A/N ~ Sure! Hope you like the scenario I picked out!

~How Dare You Say That!~

Velvet x Male!Reader

Fandom: Trolls 3: Band Together

Reader: Male

Relationship: Romantic

Synopsis: An interviewer says something about you that makes Velvet very upset.

Warnings: Hurt/comfort, Velvet getting really mad, crying(Velvet), cringe

Sitting in the back of the studio, you couldn’t help but smile. Your girlfriend, Velvet, and her brother were having an interview. The camera crew were busily scrambling behind the scenes, but your attention was only on her.

She looked stunning. Her fashion sense was always the best, way better than yours, and the outfit she picked out today made her look like a star. Not that she didn’t always look like one.

“So where did your guys’s talent come from? Is it genetics? Are your parents good at singing too?” Asked the interviewer.

“Oh, goodness no!” Veneer answered. “Our parents were dentists!” The crowd erupted in laughter, making Veneer look proud of himself.

The interviewer laughed as well. “Well, I’m sure they’re proud of you!” Velvet and Veneer looked at each other, smiling.

“And I’m also sure that your boyfriend is proud of you too!” He said, looking at Velvet. She smiled, looking at you. You nodded, giving her a thumbs up, confirming the interviewer’s statement.

“He is.” Said Velvet, proudly.

The interviewer continued. “Speaking of your boyfriend, how long have you two been together?”

“A few months.” Velvet seemed happy to be talking about you. She looked back at you, giving you a big smile.

“Really? Well congratulations to him. Must be nice to be dating a famous pop-star!” Velvet’s smile dropped a bit. So did yours. Was that comment really necessary? She took a quick glance at you, letting you know that it also made her uncomfortable.

“He seems to really love you!” He continued. Velvet nodded. “It’s great, considering so many people date stars for the money and fame. Honestly, you can barely tell which relationships are real these days! Glad to see that this guy’s different. At least I hope so! Only time will tell, am I right?” He winked, and the crowd laughed. But neither you nor Velvet thought it was funny.

You were very uncomfortable at this point. Many people were looking at you, and one guy even patted your back in a joking manner. Velvet’s expression changed from awkward, to just plain mad.

“What are you implying?” She asked, glaring directly at the man. “Are you saying that my boyfriend could only want me because I’m famous?” The crowd went silent. The interviewer opened his mouth to speak, but Velvet cut him off. “How dare you say that! He loved me before anyone knew who I was! He could never be that shallow!” She stood up, grabbing her brother’s hand. “Come on, Veneer, we’re done here!”

The crowd was filled with gasps and murmurs as they walked off stage. You got up from your seat, and followed the camera crew, who were trying to get to Velvet and Veneer.

~~~~

You eventually got to the dressing room. The door was being guarded by two big men, blocking it from the various camera crew people, as well as the interviewer.

He was giving Velvet a half-assed apology. He was also calling her sensitive, saying that it was “just a joke”. You walked up to the man, placing a hand on his shoulder to move him out of the way. You scowled at him, causing him to back away. You looked at the two guards.

“Let me in.” You demanded. They stepped aside, obviously knowing who you were. You opened the door, and your heart sank.

Your girlfriend was sitting at the vanity, Veneer comforting her. She was shaking, and quiet sobs could be heard. You felt awful for her.

“Hey Velvet.” You said in a calm, comforting tone. She jolted up, and spun around. Tears were running down her face, as well as her mascara. It was honestly shocking for you to see her like this. Sure, you’ve seen her said before, but this is the first time you’ve seen her cry.

You walked over to her, and gave her the biggest hug you possibly could. “I’m so sorry sweetie.”

“You’re sorry?! It’s that stupid man’s fault! What was he even thinking, saying something like that?! And people had the audacity to laugh! How is implying that you’re a greedy liar funny?” You were sure that the people on the other side of the door could hear her. You specifically hoped that the interviewer did. You rubbed her back, letting her vent.

“I mean, is that what people really think of you?” She said. You pulled away from the hug to look at her face. Her mascara was even more runny than before.

“Velvet, I don’t care what people think of me. They can think whatever they want, but that doesn’t make it true. I love you, famous or not. And I didn’t get to say this verbally before, but I am very proud of you.” Velvet was still crying after you spoke, but now, they were happy tears. She was so happy finally hearing someone say they were proud of her. You hugged again, not caring one bit about the group of people outside.

(Bonus Content)

Veneer had just finished writing a lengthy post shaming the interviewer. Seconds after it was posted, the likes were already rolling in.

People were giving tons of support to you and Velvet, and absolutely none for the that shitty man.

seeing as it’s now been one year since the last chapter of slippery slopes was posted, i decided to make a big sappy post talking about what this fic has meant to me over the last two and a half years

i started writing slippery slopes after a bolt of inspiration struck me on this post. i’d tried writing my fair share of long fics prior, most of them remaining unpublished and all of them unfinished. i’m not quite sure what made me think i could write slippery slopes other than a strong desire to write the alenoah fic i wanted to read but that didn’t exist at the time. slippery slopes was the 30th fic posted in the alenoah tag, which didn’t have any finished long fics at the time. i think if you told 2021 pj that in two years there would be over 600 alenoah fics, many of them tdwt rewrites, their head would explode.

i honestly had no idea what i was jumping into when i started writing slippery slopes. looking back, i was very insecure about my writing. i’d actually forgotten about that until i was reading some posts i’d made while i was still writing it, where i wondered if i was going to be able to pull off the miscommunication plotline and the unplanned alecourtney friendship. almost every announcement of a chapter draft being completed included me saying i felt weird about it, or thought it was bad. i felt incredibly uncomfortable writing serious angst and when that started playing an important role in the fic at around chapter seven i feared that my writing was awful and other people would dislike it the way i had. i genuinely don’t think it hit me that slippery slopes was a popular fic until a few months before it became the most kudosed fic on ao3.

back then, i was able to understand why other people liked slippery slopes, but i couldn’t read it without cringing. i’m not sure when exactly the switch flipped—probably after i finally finished it and was able to distance myself from the writing process—but it became a fic that i’m incredibly proud of. i can reread it now and enjoy it without cringing in the slightest. i was able to see my writing as good, and well-crafted. i will always appreciate slippery slopes as a fic where i grew incredibly as a writer. i understand how to plan out long fics while still allowing for spontaneity. i can comfortably write angst. i feel strong in my choices for characterization and friendship even if it may seem unconventional. i have so much more confidence in my writing now, and a lot of that is thanks to you all.

other than desperately wanting an alenoah tdwt rewrite fic, a huge part of why i wrote slippery slopes was because i felt lonely in the td fandom and was hoping that this fic could connect me with more people out there. and boy oh boy it sure has. and not just the plethora of alenoah shippers—way more than i expected—but there were also people who didn’t ship alenoah, but still stayed for the story, and people who had never considered alenoah but gave my fic a chance and ended up shipping it anyway. when i didn’t believe my writing was good, there were many, many kind commenters who showed my fic love and encouraged me to keep going with it. and even now, there are commenters whose fresh excitement make me feel like all the time i spent on this fic was so, so worth it. and they all inspire me to keep writing.

i may be a good writer, but i don’t think i can ever fully express what everyone’s support has done for me. i still struggle to wrap my mind around the fact that there are dozens of drawings of my fic that you all have made! that’s crazy! i am so, so lucky to have such wonderful readers, and i hope you all know how incredibly grateful i am. slippery slopes would not exist without you. this was a joint effort. it’s amazing to me how a spontaneously started fic for a crackship ended up changing the total drama fandom landscape the way it did. who would’ve guessed that a simple whim to write an alenoah fic could become quite the slippery slope.

I love the SPN fandom but honestly it’s so stressful sometimes 😭

For example earlier today I googled “Misha Collins girlfriend” because I heard a rumor that he has a girlfriend, I couldn’t find much besides stuff talking about Vicky so I scrolled down and saw a tumblr post saying something about Misha being attracted to men (which I don’t necessarily disagree with, but I don’t want to tell another person what they are) and women so I clicked on it and it was a huge post (like, a couple paragraphs) talking about some strange things. I don’t remember exactly but at one point the user brought up the “fact” that Misha makes jokes about women and sex?? As in making jokes at the expense of women… and I was like… are we talking about the same Misha here? He DOES make jokes about sex but I don’t recall him ever making jokes at the expense of women. Only thing I can think of is that one story about one of his earlier acting jobs and he didn’t know the “no tongue rule” but that was mostly at the expense of himself. Then I scrolled and found another post that was pretty disturbing…

Someone had screenshotted a regular instagram caption that Jensen posted just talking about how he just got done traveling, he wanted to take a nap, something like that—nothing sexual about the post at all or anything that would suggest that—and someone captioned it with something talking about him and Misha rubbing their [babymakers] together??? I audibly laughed out loud because wtf 😭😭

I don’t want to shame Jenmish shippers (I say Jenmish because Cockles is just a… very interesting name), even though I think it’s the slightest bit strange to be shipping real people… but again I never want to put anyone down for anything because I myself have said some stuff about Jensen and Misha that might suggest something between them.

Another thing is just the amount of hate for various cast members. Mostly the hate I see is for Jared and Misha; J2 fans who hate Misha, Jenmish fans who hate Jared, etc. There’s a lot of love in this fandom but ohmygOD there’s so much hate too. I guess that’s true for any fandom, but it’s so tiring sometimes.

Also, in this fandom, you’ll get hounded for any opinion you have. If you don’t like destiel, you’re homophobic. If you do like destiel, you’re also homophobic for some reason because queer bating or whatever… for the record i’d like to state that I am a proud destiel shipper just fyi. But I see so many people take it to the extreme, make little things into big things or something along those lines. Same thing with cockles shippers I was talking about earlier. I feel like I have a pretty neutral viewpoint on stuff regarding destiel; I see most things how they are, and I make my assumptions based on CANON things. I don’t say “Dean and Cas are definitely fucking”, I say “Dean and Cas love eachother but they cant express it, because Cas wasn’t even sure what love was and Dean’s highest ideal of love is family, which is why he says Cas is like a brother to him”. Now, if you don’t agree with me, guess what… that’s okay! If you don’t think destiel exists, that’s a valid point, and i’m not gonna dox you just because you have a different opinion than me. Because that’s just it, it’s an OPINION.

I could get into Sam haters and Dean haters and stuff… but I’m tired. Actually, you know what, screw it. I WILL GET INTO IT!!!

I’ve had a few experiences with Dean haters especially, and most of the time they just ADORE Sam and thinks he’s done nothing wrong. Let me clarify that I don’t hate Sam- like- at all. Then again, Dean haters who happen to be Sam stans have warped my view on Sam a little, but I won’t let that get in my way of honest judgment.

Sam. has. done. bad. stuff. DEAN. has. done. bad. stuff. Please don’t compare their trauma, they both have their own issues, one isn’t better than the other.

I might be biased because I relate to Dean so much (like a crazy amount it’s not even funny…), but for the millionth time in a row I DO NOT HATE SAM. I saw someone saying how Dean was the cause of almost every single world-ending event that happened in SPN… like honey no. Another person replied to their comment listing all of the world-ending events… and guess what… Sam was the cause of most of them!! Does that make him a hate-worthy character? No!!

I don’t know what point i’m trying to make here. I just think there’s so much in-fighting within the SPN fandom and as much as I love being in the fandom sometimes you just gotta have a break from all the drama. If you made it this far… go outside or something don’t pay attention to me i’m chronically online.

How long is this Owen hate thing going to go on? It's honestly kind of funny how people seem to just look for reasons to hate on him. I feel like 404 just gave them even more reason to do so while simultaneously deifying the Reyes'. The thing is, my problem isn't even with the characters, I like them all. My problem is with the double standards. The Reyes' are obviously not perfect either. And even though Carlos’s relationship with them seems to be better, the fact that he didn't feel like he could go to them after him and TK broke up shows that things are still not great between them. Not to mention Gabriel's comment about how Carlos should have corrected Andrea's mistake in 211 rather than think about why their son wouldn't feel comfortable introducing his boyfriend to them in the first place.

I think Carlos’s face says it all here. Mind you, this was after Bad Call yet apparently Gabriel still doesn't recognize his mistakes with Carlos. Not only that but now apparently we need do add the fact that he felt like such a disappointment to them that he married a woman and they just let him go through with it despite knowing he was gay. I love the scenes we got with Gabriel in 404 but I don't like how it seems that even those have been weaponized against Owen. Yes, Gabriel saved his son and it was beautiful but Owen has done the same more than once. I mean, the episode is meant to be a parallel of Bad Call where Owen and Carlos were the ones that teamed up. Not to mention when TK got shot in 108, Owen sat with him the whole time stroking his face and talking to him. He apparently didn't even leave the hospital for a shower. When TK woke up, it was his dad he called for before he even opened his eyes and Owen was right there. And then Owen saved him again in 110.

Even the scene where TK revives Carlos is a parallel to Owen reviving TK in the pilot

Look, there's no denying that Owen is flawed and to be fair it is easier to focus on Owen's flaws since he's the main character and we see more of him but that still doesn't make the double standard any less unfair. Owen didn't ignore TK at all in 404. He picked up the phone despite the FBI lady not wanting him too. He looked at her like she was crazy for even thinking that he wouldn't pick up the phone bc "it's my son" and gave TK the best advice he could with what he knew. And he did this while the FBI lady badgered him and almost took the phone out of his hand. Yet there's literally people saying that it would be a good thing if Owen died and cheering on the FBI lady for making that comment.

I also don't buy the argument that Owen hasn't been apologetic about his mistakes. Out of all three parents, Owen is the one that is actually seen reflecting on his mistakes and and apologizing. People go after him for the "about to be a father" comment yet Owen himself expressed regret for it unprompted. He did it again in 316 when in the midst of his own struggles and dealing with his trauma, he called TK up just to tell TK that he loved him and that he was proud of him. He apologized for the distance between them and promised to do better. And we know they're going to be talking in 408. That closeness they had that we all were so charmed by in s1 existed for a reason. And we now know that the reason we haven't seen it in a while is going to be addressed.

Look, I love all three of the parents plus Gwyn but at the end of the day parents are human and all humans make mistakes and have flaws. I like how the show reminds us of that. What I don't like is the double standard and the way people look for reasons to hate on Owen. It's gotten to the point where I have to filter tags and be very careful what fics I read bc I'm not interested in anything that just makes Owen out to be this awful parent when that's very far from what he actually is. My biggest pet peeve with fandoms in general is double standards and the ones people have for Owen compared to the Reyes' and even Gwyn are too glaring for me to just ignore

I just wanted to say as someone who has stumbled across your blog and has read your Wednesday wips and posts about anything topgun related that your thought process and consideration of mav and ice, specifically their political beliefs and relationships with their own identities, is honestly so impressive and cool. You have brought such realism and life to these characters which is just so refreshing to see. idk i just wanted to express how cool and awesome i think that is

Because of the thought into these characters does it make it difficult to like them or understand them if you have differing opinions from them? for me personally i feel like if i were to ever actually have a convo with ice or mav regarding identity politics i would actually start to lose my mind (like how one feels when your dad or fun uncle talks for too long at thanksgiving dinner). If it does make them difficult to like, does that make it difficult for you to write them sometimes?

oh yeah! i think, my ice i really empathize with & really love & really could get along with, once he grows out of the sexism of his teens & twenties, but my maverick drives me crazy. someone sent in an ask a while ago that was like “WHY is cyclone simpson your one true love??” And it’s because i too would absolutely hate maverick & hate working with him lol. people who are overly cocky & un-self-aware & a bit self-centered make me CRAZY. (narrator voice: compacflt is a hypocrite as all these things also apply to compacflt.)

Politically… It’s difficult to say. no one really wants to hear the intricacies of one person’s political journey, which is why i won’t give you mine, but suffice to say—since the start of the russian invasion of Ukraine, and my semi-concerted effort to learn more about the political landscape of modern warfare, my own personal beliefs have shifted a whole bunch. definitely aided in that shift by my top gun fic project that specifically aims to understand the conservative straight-passing male mindset as it relates to military matters… there are many end goals to a project like mine, but one end product is a filter you can take away and hold up in front of your eyes and see the world through it. When writing from the eyes of a conservative straight (passing) white man, your priorities totally shift. I had to write from the perspective of someone who doesn’t care about identity politics. Because they don’t! A core tenet of conservatism is very proudly not caring about that stuff, and being very annoyed when people (usually left-of-centers) make that stuff very visible and want you to care about it! “Don’t shove it in my face,” etc., etc. Don’t force me to care about this taboo, private thing I really don’t care about. It violates my freedoms, or whatever, to be forced to care—or even bear witness to—stuff that i don’t care about. Etc. And then, to be nominally a part of that community that you really, really don’t care about, and then to be told that you have to care about it because of your publicity… people asking you to be proud of something that has had a negative connotation for much of your entire life… that’s not a transformation that happens easily.

Jesus, I could write an essay about this. I have, several times by now in responses to asks over my blog. But there is so much that I could talk about. I think… I really worry that some of my writing falls into the first of the below categories:

I really try not to romanticize conservatism in my writing—I tried to show that ice and mav’s happiness is the price they pay for their conservatism. They’re actively choosing to be unhappy—but because they prioritize their honor over everything, due to EXTERNAL PRESSURES they cannot control, and which I think are often ignored in the fandom space for one reason or another. The fact of the matter is, in 99% of IPs, characters prioritize something other than their sexualities. It’s never Maverick’s personal identity that is at stake in either Top Gun or Top Gun: Maverick, because he has built himself so impermeably masculine that there are no grounds upon which to question his personal identity. He just isn’t thinking about it. He’s thinking about how to get into Charlie’s pants, how to win the Top Gun trophy, how to uphold his promise to Goose, et cetera. If he’s fucking guys on the side, it’s because he wants to and because hes maverick and he does what he wants without thinking about it—that’s the whole point of his character, from a story-construction standpoint. That’s his archetype. He’s a renegade maverick superstar who is both thoughtlessly brilliant and thoughtlessly dangerous. He’s thoughtless. His priorities are to survive and to look cool doing it, and that’s it. He is a savant in the Naval Air Force, where honor is your lifeblood, who feels he has been dishonored by his own family name, and who willingly joined the conservative post-Vietnam Navy right when/after Ronald Reagan was elected President, and who wears cowboy boots and who disrespects women to their faces, and who is eager to get into altercations with Soviet-Chinese-DPRK-X-second-world-country-coded-but-EXPLICITLY-Soviet-manufactured-Mikoyan-Gurevich-MiG-28s(-F-5s-painted-black)… I’m sorry. In my opinion, the conservatism is baked into him as a character. I find it extremely difficult to separate him from his conservatism, because in some ways his patriotic conservatism is his raison d’etre. IMO if you take that away from him, he ceases to exist.

Same thing with Ice and his unwillingness to openly rebel or go against the grain. That is his whole reason to exist in the story at all. I know that I’m saying this in a fandom space where the whole point is to change characters & put them in different situations (fanfic) but… in kind of a perverse self aware way, as in I know I sound ridiculous and pretentious, i guess i don’t really understand an impulse to change the core tenets of a character irreparably in fanworks. We are shown that ice always goes by the books in TG. Then we are shown that he achieves the fruits of that labor (four stars) in TGM. So he is rewarded for never rebelling, whereas Maverick, who always rebels (but NEVER in a way that challenges his personal identity), has stagnated in the ranks at full-bird O-6. And that’s Ice’s character. That’s what he’s there for in the story—he’s a tool to show us the value system of rank and prestige you earn by following the rules of the Navy. Why take that away from him? That’s his priority! Canonically, that’s his priority and reason for existence! And historically the way to achieve that priority is through conservatism.

And you ask me if it’s hard to like my ice and mav. Yes, but that’s not my choice. The movie already did that for me. They are not, I’m sorry, likable people. I am not a straight white conservative male writing about straight white conservative men to validate my own beliefs—I’m a queer AFAB person of color writing about straight white conservative men because I want to understand the limits of their conservatism. What they do and do not care about, and what it takes to make them care. And from what we are shown in TG… ice and mav would not care about ME. At all. And they would not want to be forced to care about me. Ice’s casual careless dismissiveness… “the plaque for the alternates is down in the ladies’ room…” mav following Charlie into the bathroom… turning the key in the ignition and driving away while pretending not to hear her… “what?? i can’t hear you! 🙉” … they do not care. They have no desire to care.

Again. Maybe I subscribe to a very very old-school and labored and pretentious ideology when it comes to writing… I know a lot of people write just to have fun. I do not. I wish i could, but I don’t. And when you’re not writing to have fun, you don’t have to like the characters you’re writing about. They’re nothing more than tools at your disposal to get your point across more effectively. No, I don’t like them! Of course not! My ice is cruel and cowardly and careless and hypocritical and subservient and weak, and my mav is demanding and dangerous and dismissive and oblivious and so, so, so unbelievably bitter.

And that’s what my story needed, to get my point across. So, shrug. My point was my priority. I don’t care too much about the characters themselves.

Re: icemav & identity politics. Part of hopefully selling this story is the attempt at empathy for the conservative male, to bring this discussion back to the top. Why write fiction at all if you’re not going to write about people different from you, and why write about people different from you if you don’t want to understand them? So… part of trying to understand them was to understand and have empathy for this shift in priorities. Conservative guys do not want to care about labels, or sexual orientations, or, God forbid, discussion of their gender identities. I can kind of see Ice tolerating it by the end… but, there are limits. Again, it’s supposed to be private. I think he’d chafe against getting labeled gay—he wouldn’t want to be called the first gay compacflt, or SECNAV, etc. He can’t say, “i slept with like a hundred fifty women before I even MET the ONLY man ive ever slept with,” because that’s like intensely private personal information!! No one deserves that information, but people still want to call him gay, even though in his head he really is not!!!! Again—from the conservative perspective, it’s a public imposition of left-wing, overly sexualized, too-neat labels and politics onto an area of life that has typically been kept private and respectable—I don’t agree with the conservatism, but I can at least empathize with it. Pre-Maverick’s death (pre-coming to terms with it), it would’ve been shameful & embarrassing to him; but even after coming to terms with it, it’s still not something he “takes pride” in. I think he thinks of it like this—most people aren’t proud of being straight. Like, it’s weird if you are. Same thing with being proud of being white, etc. Why be excessively proud of things you have no control over? Why not take pride in your ACTIONS—for instance, his career that he has actively sacrificed so much of his pride for? I can really empathize with that thought. I don’t necessarily agree, but I get it, especially in his professional circumstances, where he has so much to be professionally proud of, and yet people keep wanting him to publicly care about this private part of him he has no control over and can’t change.

Maverick though. I think he’d be actively hostile about talking about it in public. He Does Not Care. he does not want to care. It’s all an insult. They call him the first openly gay Ace cause he’s married to another man— “okay, but, like, I’m not. Stop calling me that. Neither of us are. Oh my god we have slept with so many women. Stop calling us that.” Ok then what do you want us, the press corps, to call you? First openly bisexual Ace? “No that’s worse!! That’s a word some teenager made up and doesn’t mean anything!! I’m sixty years old stop asking me to talk about this stuff im too old.” What do you have to say to LGBT kids who want to go into the navy? “😎👍 there’s a place for you etc etc. Let’s go back to talking about all the planes I shot down.” Maverick does what he wants without thinking about it. That’s the core tenet of his character. Very conservative. Don’t ask him to care too much.

Idk. No I don’t like them. But I understand them, if that makes sense. Like their conservative anti-label logic does make emotional sense to me. So that’s part of what I took away from this project, for better or worse… probably worse: I understand why conservatives don’t like the modern over-publicity of sexuality. They don’t care and they don’t want to care. And because they are small-C conservative, my ice and mav still don’t care lol. So, yeah. It doesn’t make them hard to write, because thats why I wanted to write them in the first place.

I find your takes very interesting. And it’s clear to see you’re very smart, educated and well read! Honestly good for you and I’m completely serious (intelligence is something to be proud of! And literary intelligence is impressive to me) But some of us, while educated are still not very smart and just enjoying manga. Like me personally, I’m not ashamed to admit it. I didn’t like reading in high school but whatever. I enjoy the bsd story and then search for different theories and analyses. It’s very cool to see especially in this fandom. Yes some people refuse to acknowledge, blatantly neglect what are real references and don’t think about it in depth. some people don’t care and some people do. I’m in the middle. I look to others bc I know I’m not smart of enough to make some of the more deeper connections. But it’s also not that serious. Idk what my point was but for it was not to be rude and I’m sorry if it may seem that way! Anyway happy analyzing 🫡

I appreciate your effort to be polite, and I hear you. I generally try to reserve my frustration for matters of cultural- or subject matter-based sensitivity and respect.

Otherwise, I offer what I have to say because I understand that my approach to media analysis is within its own niche, which means I have a perspective to contribute to the conversation. I think literary analysis not only benefits from but necessitates engaging with a multiplicity of lenses. In other words, I'm also just enjoying manga, and I don't expect others to enjoy manga the same way I do; I'd rather there be lots of different approaches than only a few.

That also means I decide how serious it is to me. I don't care how much anyone else values it, I value contextualizing literature a lot, and I'm going to be vocal about what I value. In turn, others can decide the weight of that for themselves. My strong opinions on the matter do not impose any obligations on anyone else to agree with me, nor do they have any bearing on anyone else's behavior.

But, this is the social blogging platform where I informally blog to decompress between work tasks and to occasionally sort through my thoughts on media. I'm going to occasionally botch my wording or say something that won't reflect the expansiveness of my intent. Or, like earlier today, I'll express frustration with matters that, to borrow your language, aren't that serious. Nevertheless, the same as the above still stands: you can take what you want from it, including nothing.

Thank you for the kind words about my intelligence, but I don't think there's any value judgment in being intelligent or enjoying reading. I also have dyscalculia and enjoy black sesame ice cream. These are all value neutral facets of my preferences and how I experience the world, not sources of pride. I'm proud of where I've made choices that nurture my values and where I've sought to engage, even if to grapple, with what I find interesting or challenging.

tl;dr: sometimes I'm going to be moody in public, and y'all are going to have to decide for yourselves how to cope.

#im glad you enjoy manga. i enjoy manga too #and enjoying manga as a group activity is fun or there wouldnt be fandom for it #but sometimes i feel like what i do is closer to parallel play and that's usually fine #except sometimes i wish there was more community interest in my type of play too #that doesnt mean you have to play with me or justify to me why you dont want to #my whining isnt personal #it's just something i have to express to excise sometimes

very kindly tagged by @cursedhaglette, thank you for giving me a chance to talk about my writing :)

1) How many works do you have on AO3?

11! :)

2) What’s your total AO3 word count?

lmfao. 985,659. That's nearly ten thesises (theses?) in the time of my PhD programme, so I'm going to just go quickly walk into the sea.

3) What fandoms do you write for?

the majority of my fic is for videogames with love interests and OC potential (BG3, Dragon Age) but I did briefly fall prey to the darklina disease, which I have to admit to here in order to answer some of the other questions

4) What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

1- Pieces Still Stuck in Your Teeth (bg3)

2- Party Favours (bg3)

3- A Bleeding Heart (bg3)

4- The Stars Don't Shine, They Burn (shadow and bone)

5- An Honest Lie (bg3)

5) Do you respond to comments?

as best as I can, I typically clear out a previous chapter just before I post something new (so that's one way to monitor or predict my posting activity lmfao)

6) What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

Lmao. Sunblindness (shadow and bone) which takes an 'eye for an eye' approach to an amnesia AU. I actually wanted to end on a major character death but my pal's response was "jesus Emma, this is something people read for fun" so I watered it down :')))))

7) What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

Party Favours currently!! Happier endings incoming, IMO.

8) Do you get hate on fics?

yes, occasionally, I'm still in single digits thankfully. i always find it so funny bc nobody is more critical of my fic than me. you think you can hurt me? babygirl, we're in the 5th dimension of insults in my brain, your surface level comment barely touches the sides.

9) Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

nope! call me the Astarion!spawn ending, the way I fade-to-black :')))))

10) Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?

I crossovered Stardust and Shadow and Bone, but it was not a straight crossover it was more a chewed up, swallowed, and digested version of both premises. I similarly wrote a Wintersmith/Shadow and Bone crossover that I never posted bc the sickness left me.

11) Have you ever had a fic stolen?

lol. lmfao, even. :)))))

12) Have you ever had a fic translated?

I have had requests made of me and given permission for that to happen, but I do not know if it was ever posted!

13) Have you ever co-written a fic before?

no, it's not for me unfortunately, I was that horrible kid in group projects who just wished she could work alone :')))))))))))

14) What’s your all time favorite ship?

honestly there are many but the two that are indelibly written on my soul are Howl/Sophie and Spike/Buffy like the simple bitch I am.

In terms of things I've written? zevran/surana, hands down.

15) What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

Anything I post I will eventually finish, out of social anxiety alone. At the moment I'm worried about the stuff sitting unposted in gdocs.

16) What are your writing strengths?

hahahahahahaha i don't fucking know i think i can make character voices distinct so you can usually tell which POV I'm writing from once the perspectives are established?

I have been complimented on my dialogue.

I think I'm usually brave enough to take a risky decision, even if it doesn't pay off. These decisions also land more than they used to so it's a skill I've built with time and one I am proud of.

My jokes don't seem to just be for me anymore, I like it when other people say I made them laugh.

17) What are your writing weaknesses?

If there's something that can be said straightforwardly in a sentence, you know I'll say it in three paragraphs instead. I wouldn't be surprised if people think I'm a purple-prosed motherfucker.

Smut and lack thereof

the repeat of 'conversation, stage direction, eye contact, expression, repeat' is not a weakness but it is something I become intermittently self conscious of.

18) Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?

I am a fan of it and I appreciate it when its done well (pour one out for Naomi Novik's fic/writing where the language work is cringingly poor), but not something I can personally do. Admirer in others, of the skills I lack.

19) First fandom you wrote for?

*dabs* Dragon Age, the OG. It was the pandemic, and I didn't want to replay Wicked Eyes Wicked Hearts bc I hate timed sections, so I wrote a fic instead.

20) Favorite fic you’ve written?

I feel bad writing this on the blog that's currently 99% BG3, but The Stars Don't Shine They Burn. It was my first time plotting something that diverged greatly from source material, and I was going through some stuff at the time that I can feel viscerally when I return to it and read the words. It is a work of personalised comfort. There's one scene in it that still gets me, every single time.

I don't know, it's funny to see Pieces get attention and I'm very, very proud of Pieces, but some of what I'm thinking through in that was in its proto-form in the other fic, which is finished and I'm really proud of it... so let's see if anything comes along to bop it off the top spot once I have a critical distance and am not in the writing trenches lol.

Tagging wise, I actually want to do an open call on this one!! this was a really pleasant exercise, so anyone seeing this who wants to talk about their writing or celebrate their achievements can take this as my personal invitation :)

scared? do it anyway x

What is your opinion on echo and her relationship with Cassidy?

To me Echo is a very interesting character that is often underutilised or misunderstood by the fandom. I've seen people treat her as if she's just a clone of Mina Liao, which plainly isn't true, she takes after her a lot sure, but she's a learning AI. She isn't a carbon copy because she would have learned stuff from other around her, like Cassidy.

I also really like that recently we've gotten more insight into Echo as a person through her interactions. Like how she's unsure wether or not Mina would be proud of her, or people asking her about Aroura. It gives me the vibes of a kid who is constantly asked about or compared to a deceased older sibling, doesn't help that she was quarantined shortly after Mina's death, she's probably still grieving the loss of what was technically her mother.

Not only that but because she was made after Omnics became sentient she's often more viewed as a weapon more then a person. A big hint to this is the fact she was quarantined, because you don't do that to a person. Her being in quarantine is so very eerily similar to what happened to Mei and no one talks about it. The only three people I can confidently say don't view as a weapon are Cassidy, Life Weaver and Symmetra.

Which leads me into Cassidy and Echo's relationship, I honestly see them as Farther-Daughter because of how much Cassidy was around during her development (this is a personal view I do not care if you ship them). It obvious that Echo takes after Cassidy around the same amount she takes after Liao, the one moment I think shows this the most is her interaction with Reaper;

Reaper: Imitate me and you'll regret it.

Echo: Imitate me and you'll regret it.

Reaper: That's... not bad, actually.

You cannot tell me that is not a Cassidy thing to do. Not only that but her way of expressing anger is the same as Cassidy as well, bitter remarks. This is shown with her interactions with Ramattra;

Ramattra: It's a shame none of us have ever met Aurora, your predecessor.

Echo: I hear that often. *ahem* What would you have asked her?

Ramattra: The same thing I ask her everyday. I wish she could answer.

She has so many of Cassidy's mannerisms I-

They're family your honour-

Also her victory pose where she's dressed as Cassidy is so cute;

Times like these make me want to main a character I have no idea how to play-

#overwatch #overwatch 2 #cole cassidy #overwatch headcanons #overwatch lore #analysis #echo overwatch #echo

MONICA!!!!!! The concert was so good!!!! 😭😭😭 I’m assuming you’re ok with spoilers so here goes 😬

The first half of the show was them playing and recreating the key scenes and singing in them which I thought would trigger me tbh but instead I think it did me good to see the scenes I loved again 🥹 and Jimmy, Mark and Sea were so freaking good they cried in some scenes and I cried seeing them cry and it was so emotional again!!! I really wanna go back and rewatch all the good parts now, it’s still 80% a really good series!!

And they did Blame the Stars together!!! And you saw they did the “can I have my shirt back” scene!!! 😵🫠

(They played the breakup scene but not the reconciliation, it kinda just skipped to “happy ending” and I’m actually glad that we don’t have to rehash all of that)

They did full group songs and unit songs and what got to me was that MarkNamtan and OhmFilm did songs but so did NamtanFilm and MarkOhm!!! The NamtanFilm song was 😙👌

They did a whole Vice Versa medley!!! They did it for me!!! 😄 I was so happy and excited to see it!!! I hope that gets more of the newer fans to go watch it!!!

Jimmy, Mark and Sea had solo moments too, love that for them!!

They were surprised with a fan made video in support of them!! 🥰

Their speeches at the end were emotional and everyone cried, including me 🥹 Sea went second to last and Jimmy went last and he spoke the most 😁

It was just under 4 hours long, it started a little late (as all GMM concerts do tbh) but it was so good and worth only getting 4 hours of sleep 😅 I really hope you get to see it and enjoy it too!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING YOUR LIVE STREAMING EXPERIENCE OF THE LAST TWILIGHT CONCERT WITH ME KAREN!!!!!!!!

ngl reading this and seeing all the clips on twitter is making me want to buy the ticket for the rerun so badly like i always knew it was gonna be great and that everyone was gonna give their all but damn. the concert actually felt so well organized and thought out, i love that they basically turned the show into a musical and gave space for all kind of performances and pairings!!!!!! i've always wanted a duet version of blame the stars and im so happy they finally gave it to us!!!!!! and seeing namtanfilm and markohm slow dance alongside jimmysea was such a blessing THEY TRULY SAID THERE AIN'T NO STRAIGHT PEOPLE LEFT IN THIS SHOW

i really wasn't expecting it, but tbh i feel the same way as you. i think this did me good. maybe im just saying this because i haven't seen any videos of the break up scene so i can just keep pretending it never happened, but the parts i did see are kind of healing the hurt i've been feeling over the last three episodes of the show and bringing back all the love and excitement i used to have for morkday

ALSO NOT TO BE DRAMATIC BUT JIMMYSEA SINGING THE ENTIRETY OF THE VICE VERSA OST WITH A BRIGHT PINK STAGE SURROUNDING THEM MADE ME CRY LIKE A BABY like i truly did not expect them to bring vice versa up because last twilight is what brought them the popularity they always deserved so i was afraid they would kinda forget about vice versa, but im honestly just so ridiculously happy and emotional to know that it's still in their heart. or at least that they know it's still in ours, even if we may be a minority in the fandom now

i already had a meltdown over jimmysea this morning and i really can't afford another one and i don't think i would even have the words to express everything i feel but. im just so proud of them. it's honestly insane to me that they were able to pull off a performance like this in such a short period of time and with such a busy schedule. their dedication, their hard work, their kindness..... I DON'T CARE WHAT ANYONE SAYS THESE TWO BOYS DESERVES ALL THE LOVE AND RECOGNITION IN THE WORLD

#THIS IS SO LONG AND YET I FEEL LIKE THERE ARE SO MANY OTHER THINGS I WANTED TO SAY AND SCREAM ABOUT #BUT ALSO I FEEL SO EMOTIONALLY FLAYED OPEN I DON'T THINK I COULD SAY ANOTHER WORD #IM JUST SO HAPPY JIMMYSEA GOT TO HAVE THIS AND THAT IT WAS SUCH A HEALING EXPERIENCE FOR US #THANK YOU AGAIN FOR SHARING YOUR EXPERIENCE AND YOUR FEELINGS WITH ME KAREN!!!!!!!!! 💜💜💜💜💜💜#jimmysea #karen 🧡#m: ask

I normally avoid talking about fandom or drama on my main but I think as someone who has experienced abuse I wanted to share my perspective on the “Wilbur situation” and make a slight vent post about it while also discussing my issues with how some in the community have handled this situation.

TW discussions of abuse

Disclaimer: for those that know me, I do have two exes. The ex I will be mentioning in this post is the first one. Not my most recent ex. I am on good terms with my ex girlfriend and we are good friends now. This is NOT about her. This is about the man who gave me CPTSD.

I haven’t spoken much about my experience of abuse publicly because it feels like it was something I only recently escaped, and I honestly didn’t want word getting to him about it because the idea of him contacting me again makes me want to throw up. But he doesn’t use tumblr so I feel confident I can talk about this here.

I was with an abusive man for almost 4 years of my life. About a year in I realized I was gay but I stayed because I was scared of him and I was scared he was going to hurt himself or me. Listening to Shelby talk about what was done to her reminds me so much of what happened to me. Between the neglect and the love bombing, to the “I’m stronger than you” statement and refusal to abide by safe words and even weaponizing them…not to mention his knowing she was previously assaulted and still doing the things he did…it just…felt like I was looking in a mirror. Except it was so much worse. I was lucky in the fact that most of my relationship with my abuser happened when we were in high school because I was able to escape from him. Shelby had to live in the same space as this horrible man on multiple occasions and I cannot begin to fathom how awful that must have been.

The pain and suffering she has been put through is unforgivable, and William Gold deserves every bit of backlash he has gotten. And he does not deserve to have any sort of platform anymore. But I want to specifically address some of the people who have expressed issues with Shelby and other CCs regarding the situation.

I have seen several people be upset at Shelby for “not coming out sooner” and for other CCs not coming out sooner and “not calling him out” sooner. And as a victim of abuse, it is not our jobs to placate you and tell you everything that happened to us. We have every right to process what has happened to us. It is difficult to process, difficult to admit. It took me months after I left him to finally acknowledge my ex had treated me badly, let alone that he had abused me. And I know I sure as hell would not have wanted anyone speaking FOR me about the abuse that I had endured.

There is no timeline for recovering from abuse and just because you’re pissed that you supported a monster for so long doesn’t mean you have any right to throw a hissy fit about the victim “not saying it sooner”. Grow the fuck up. Find a new musician to listen to. And support victims, always.

Anyways, fuck Wilbur Soot I hope he rots

Support Shelby, she deserves the world and more. I’m so proud of you Shelby and I stand with you.

#wilbur soot #TW abuse #TW abuse mention #kinda sorta vent #tw wilbur soot #fuck wilbur soot #support shubble #support shelby #support victims #if you know my ex no you don’t #I want nothing to do with him nor will I ever reveal his name so leave me alone

My writing used to be really descriptive and environmental, but I've abandoned that for more a narrative heavy storytelling where a narrator is your window for the world.

And honestly idk, the narrative comes naturally to me, and the descriptive has to be actively put in, I have to train myself to write it each time and squeeze my brain.

It also gets dull with time. there are only so many ways and times I could describe the sun shining in the morning before it gets redundant. but the same can be said for how much I love narrating longing and end up resusing the same phrases.

So far I only describe what I think is important to the environmental telling, unless it has a purpose then I leave it up to the reader to imagine what colour the couch was or what sheets the bed had.

But I didn't realise that readers' default response is just... to keep it blank. if I don't tell them there are curtians then they'll never imagine it, If I don't spell the way the food smelled then they'll never find it delicious, if I don't describe the ways the tree swayed then they'll never get a meter of how windy it is.

I never got criticism or hate comments for it, the opposite, I got compliments on my descriptive works saying how much they could imagine the world clearly, praising how well I've painted it. And those compliments motivate me to try more and put in more effort than a wall of criticism ever could.

I guess I need to hit a balance. "a beautiful webbing" was one of my works where I hit that perfect spot of balance between narration and environmental telling, but also that fic was a special case, a project I held immense passion for and it seems exhausting to have to do that to each fic especially with how i need to post at least once every three days.

ik quality over quantity and all but let's be realistic, this is fanfiction and not every story is a one I want to be top tier quality. not everyone wants to read an S tier fic, sometimes the B and C tier are absolutely preferable and easier on the mind. like a snack, there are many of them and they get to the poin faster.

I hate people who claim they're hard to please in fanfiction and only read completed works with 20+ chapters and 60k words. Who demand perfection for free and are proud of it whilst being willfully ignorant of how each type of fic shines differently. Not everyone wants to tell a story the same way, one shots are not less superior than multie chaptered works.

Your preference isn't superior to everyone else's, that one shot you glossed over could've been the most in character thing every written in the history of the fandom. Could've told a complex story through a couple lines. I've always admired people who can say so much in so little, who can summerise long paragraphs in multiple words.

It could also just be an average normal one shot, and that's fine and okay and is absolutely someone's preference. A lot of people like comfort snacks to enjoy.

Anyway the point is. I will try to get more descriptive, i try to avoid watching writing guides or reading about writing tips and tricks. The advice they give is really generic and I find that it boxes you in this regressive view of how writing should be. No matter how good the advice is, If it gets too overwhelming and it feels like you're doing nothing right then please take a step back and ignore everything everyone else has ever said.

Art is you, it's expression and communication. You want to feel it so you make it, you want to tell it so you share it. That's all, that's the end.

Be it erotica, crack fics, alternative universe or whatever. No one in this world can make it like you, it's fully personalised to your own mind and no one in this life could tell that story but you.

Oh I also have a clear lack of dialogue, I feel like it's one of the trickiest things to write because how easily it could break characters. How I have to keep spreadsheets analysing the way each character speaks.

Which, there are no spreadsheets, btw. I keep it in my mind.

Take Minthara for example, she is direct, forward and orders things. She never says "I think" or "maybe" she never asks either, she demands.

She wouldn't say "I hope we don't lose" instead she'd phrase it as "We will emerge victorious."

She likes using complex or flourishy words but never like Gale or Wyll, their type of flourish is entirely different and means to honey the words, whilst Minthara's mean to make the sentence more regal, aristocratic rather than noble. She uses them deliberately to show off statues while Gale uses them to show off intelligence, and Wyll does it for charm and theatrical poetry.

She doesn't take shortcuts either. She doesn't say "don't." Instead she separates it to "Do not." And forces you to listen to her long phrases, a small form of power play where she never makes herself or words smaller, she always uses them fully as they are.

And I have to do this for each character, you see how exhausting this easily can be. How every character also speaks as if they're from a different time. Karlach speaks more modernly but it's never like the common people talk in bg3, so she just...has access to modern dialogue and phrases for some reason?

Astarion never speaks like he is 200 years old either, not like an elf either. Halsin speaks like an elf, Cazador speaks like an elf, but not Astarion for some reason, and I have to keep that in mind.

Wyll is the easiest to write because his way of speech flows so well with my own writing, they compliment each other. Unlike how jarring Karlach dialogue in one of my fics.

Shadowheart is a character who uses filler words a lot, stalling or just uncertainty? She uses "I think, Maybe, is that so, I don't know but, I guess." Inbetween her sentences.

Maybe it's bc of the gaps in her memory? But it works in her favourite because I just need to remove the filler words whenever I want her to appear serious or whenever I want to flush out an important moment, it brings attention subtly to how reassured she is of her self.

Lae'zel speaks her heart in a way, she vocalises her observations to others and they take it as either criticism or praise when it's most likely that she meant neither and is just observing. Honestly to make it simpler, Lae'zel speaks autisticly which I relate to a lot, and which is why so many misunderstandings happen around her character when people assume she is mean or making fun of them when in reality she is indifferent and saying her thoughts loud and clear as they are.

People don't usually do that, they don't express their feelings as directly as Lae'zel. They hint it at, subtly or they play it down or exaggerate it. Lae'zel does neither, she speaks directly from the source and every word is deliberately chose and is exactly what she meant it.

But people aren't used to that, taking words at face value. And because they're used to people exaggerating or down playing their words, they assume Lae'zel is doing the same and filter her words through the same social protocol which ends up making her look too horny or too mean when she is neither. They needlessly attach meanings to her words that weren't there and complain about the results that they themselves made up when she already delivered the final results herself.

Astarion speaks like a 13-year-old who just learned what irony and sarcasm are. But put it through a modern dracula adaptation Snapchat filter, and you get the final results. He thinks he comes off as smooth, and sometimes he does, but it mostly falls flat and he comes off as johhny bravo.

His looks are what's important here, since they more than make up for his failure in words. Much like most of Edward Cullens lines were absolutely wild but because a sexy vampire was saying it then suddenly it becomes palatable.

But Astarion has his moments in relatablity. He is by far the most relatable character in dialogue. He says what we all wanted to say, but we didn't just to save face. He makes the crude jokes, he makes the sex innuendos andpenis dagger lame puns.

He also screams at the word and calls out. He also curses back at the gods who dammned him. He embraces his rage and resentment and expresses it without any shame. He lets the smooth facade fall and claws at the other performers on the stage of life as his own masks start to crack down. The only thing Astarion has ever been fully honest about is his own wrath, it's the single unpolished spot on his perfect surface, the single crack in his procline mask.

And there is something about how a one can't describe Astarion without resorting to poetry, how it writes itself at certain points because just like the sea, he is as beautiful as he is ruthless, as tender as the crashing waves against the jagged rocks, as fleeting as the dissipating sea foam receading back from the shore.

He can never be broken much like the fluid water can never snap. And it's this burning flame behind his failed flirting that pulls you in, the sparks of his passion that slip through that make his lame lines actually work, that make him so enticing.

2023 WRITING REVIEW

I really don't write much but it's the second time @eeverlark tags me in a writing meme (I think) soooo alright lys I'll do it. for you 🫶🏻

1. number of stories posted to ao3: 4, and yes I'm counting the fic I updated in early January because 7 out of 8 chapters were written in 2023

2. number of words posted last year: 49k

3. fandoms i wrote for: only Merlin I'm monogamous 💛

4. pairings: Merwenthur; Merwaine; background Arwen in an Arthur & Merlin fic if that counts

5. stories with the most:

KUDOS || BOOKMARKS: Call It Anything We Want (281 | 48)

COMMENT THREADS: my merwenthur vignettes have 31 threads (excluding the chapter posted in January 2024). makes sense given every chapter is basically a self-contained ficlet

6. work i'm most proud of (and why): every fic I write is simultaneously the best and the worst I've ever written and it remains so until I post a new one.

Honestly though every fic(let) has some things I like and some I think I could've done better.

Having said that, Call It Anything We Want is the first fic I posted on ao3 after a long writing hiatus so. I'm proud of that and of the amount of time I've put into this story as a whole.

7. work i'm least proud of (and why): hmmm see previous answer.

there's a ficlet called The Hunting Trip that I think I could have done better – mainly the conversation Arthur and Merlin have about Uther – but I just wanted to get it done tbh. I do like how it starts though. And Cavall the dog :)

8. share or describe a favorite review you received: I absolutely love any time someone says they liked my characterisation. for example:

your characterization is insane i am so obsessed. its so so good. like. idk how to describe it you just write relationships meshing so well together and not in like. an unrealistically flawless way but in a warm and familiar way. im in awe.

I love this story, your writing, this relationship, this dynamic, your details, your characterization, your everything and I’ve been meaning to tell you for a very long time. I’m sorry for not expressing this earlier. Your continuation of the original story was incredibly, believably, wondrously fantastic.

Comments like these give me life 🥺

9. a time when writing was really, really hard: 99% of the time if I'm being honest

10. a scene or character you wrote that surprised you: I wrote a ficlet that was supposed to be magically genderbent!Merlin x Arthur smut but it ended up being fem!Merlin x Gwen instead because Arthur wasn't cooperating

11. a favorite excerpt of your writing:

“Ah, the court sorcerer himself!” Gwaine exclaims, spreading his arms wide, and some wine sloshes out of his goblet and spills on the floor. He claps one hand on Merlin's shoulder. “Congratulations, Master Merlin.” “I told you to stop calling me that.” Gwaine just looks at him. Head to toe, with a grin that does nothing to hide what he's thinking, and must therefore come across as incredibly lewd. “You look good in green,” is all he says. Merlin raises an eyebrow. “You think I look good in anything.” Gwaine leans closer; close enough to purr in Merlin’s ear: “And even better in nothing at all.” Mainly for the pleasure of watching the tips of Merlin’s ears flush pink. — UNWAVERING

12. how did you grow as a writer last year: well I actually wrote something which is a good starting point

13. how do you hope to grow this year: I'd love to write a multi-chapter fic with an actual plot someday. also get better at titling things

14. who was your greatest positive influence this year as a writer (could be another writer, beta, cheerleader, etc.): I think all the lovely people that left me some feedback made me push myself a tiny bit harder to keep writing and posting. a special shout-out to @castelled-away for writing whole essays about my merwenthur ficlets, I've loved every single comment 💛

15. anything from your real life show up in your writing last year: nothing apart from my desire to kiss Colin Morgan on the mouth

16. any new wisdom you can share with other writers: sometimes done is better than perfect. just get it done and move on it's fine if it's not a masterpiece. at least that's what I often have to tell myself but also I suspect I have adhd

17. any projects you're looking to starting (or finishing) this year: I would like to finish my Sefa-centric WIP, I wrote like 8k words but I'm not sure where it's going

#eeverlark #userlys #tag game #I wrote most of this last night at 2 am I hope it makes sense #*

Look! You hit me in two of my weak spots with baby-verse: first because I l-o-v-e hybrid (I got to know your fics because of that one back in 2020?? 2019?? idk) and because I also love babyfics (which is a fact I'm not particularly proud of, but yours is the only real good one I've read in a while). My question is actually about the dynamic Rosalie-Olie, because Rose is a character who has a difficult story with babies, and I think the way you write her is so cute and honest with her character. In the story, is this whole thing a healing experience for her or would you say it's more painful? And how her relationship with Alice changes (if it changes) with that? (Also I have to add that I'm loving FicMas so far, it's like the ultimate Jalice event on this fandom in my opinion)

Anon! Thank you so much for enjoying Hybrid. That is the most self-indulgent fic to date and for a while, it felt like everyone was politely ignoring that so it always makes me SO happy that Hybrid has a fanbase? It's unhinged, it's meant to be a bunch of fun, I love that people want to read it.

And thank you for the incredible comment about baby-verse. I am indifferent to kidfics, honestly, and most of them are terrible. Baby-verse spawned mostly out of frustration and spite about the state of baby fics and how deeply unequipped Alice and Jasper are to be parents in any universe. It would never be a choice they made for themselves, and I think if you want to stay true to them as characters, you need to recognize that. But that's a rant for another day.

SO, about Hybrid!Rose. It's really both? I think that it reopens a very raw wound for Rose, but in a way that allows it to heal stronger. She'll never have babies, but she gets to watch her favourite brother's son grow up and be a part of that? It's very bittersweet and complicated for her, definitely.

This is a version of Rosalie that thinks Alice is erratic and childish and has a bad temper, and she has no idea why Jasper is so in love with her. Rose is not a fan at all; she just tolerates Alice better than Bella because Alice isn't human and giving up a Normal Life to be with Jasper, and because Jasper isn't making his relationship with Alice a family priority - Jasper would actually prefer less family involvement.

And then Alice walks in holding this beautiful baby boy that looks so much like Jasper, Rosalie knows instantly that this is her nephew. In that first moment, it's love at first sight. Rose will die for Oliver without a second thought.

The pain comes later, and Emmett does a lot of heavy lifting there, letting Rose hurt and emote over the fact that life isn't fair and reminding her that she needs to find the good in the situation. She can grieve her own dreams and celebrate Oliver at the same time. No one in their family is going to begrudge her for hurting, but she cannot place her suffering or her healing solely on Oliver's shoulders. (And Rose does support Emmett through a similar thing - that it fucking hurts that the one family member who has expressed his lack of interest in children suddenly has a healthy son.)

It takes time - Rose desperately wants a distinctive place in Oliver's life, and she knows that having a friendship with Alice is necessary to that, so Rose tries. She's polite and friendly, and tries not to offer unsolicited advice or abscond with Oliver when Alice is at the Cullens. She's intensely aware that Jasper needs to bond with his son before she gets to bond with her nephew, and that Alice makes all the decisions whilst Jasper is still coming to terms with being a father.

Most of the time, Rose is successful, but sometimes she gets a little pushy - especially when it comes to things that would keep Oliver closer to the Cullens. Rose is a big advocate for Alice and Jasper to immediately get married, and a lot of that is seizing the opportunity to have Oliver in the house full-time. Alice is not interested in marriage - she's only eighteen and she has her own family, and she and Jasper are still working through their issues - and honestly, Emmett's relieved because he doesn't think Rose is ready to have the baby around 24/7.

But Alice and Rose do slowly form a friendship. It's a basis of mutual respect - Rose respects the fact that Alice is now apart of the family, that she's a capable mom and a good partner for Jasper. Alice respects the fact that this is really hard for Rose, and change doesn't come easy for vampires. And they both adore Ollie and want him to have a happy, normal childhood. Alice does trust Rose with Ollie in a way that she doesn't trust anyone else at the beginning - a mutual understanding of the maternal instinct, perhaps? And as Oliver grows up, Alice and Rose end up being friends on their own merits - they both like fashion, they both like fast cars, and they both have loud and clear opinions.

Oliver is also very, very close to Auntie Ro and Uncle Em - he grows up with both of them dropping any task to play with him, with special sleepovers, with having Rose and Emmett spoil him and love on him so much. So as much as Rosalie will always mourn not being a mother, being able to be there for Ollie's childhood is healing.

(And thank you. Ficmas started as a bit of a silly thing, I am so glad that everyone enjoys it. Definitely thinking of mixing it up for 2024 with an actual request form so I can see What The People Want.)

Tag Game - Fandom Edition

I was tagged by the wonderful @heronamedhawks thank you!! ❤️

Your Name: Kendall

Your First Fandom: I would say, if we go back to the days of forums in the 00’s, I would count the Michael Jackson fandom as my first.

Your Current Fandom: The Rings of Power! 😍 And it’s honestly the best fandom I’ve ever been a part of.

How did you first get into fandom?: It all comes down to a way to connect with other like minded souls, and share your love for the thing you’re all obsessed with. And as a teenager in the early/mid 00’s I didn’t really have any friends that loved Michael Jackson as much as me.

How long have you been engaging in fandom spaces?: Well as two of my previous answers have stated, approximately 20 years haha.

How often do you read fanfic?: I wish I had more time to read! My free time is kind of split between reading and writing. But I’m reading a lot more often now than I used to thank goodness!

Top three characters from your current fandom?: Halbrand/Sauron, Galadriel, and Elrond. 😍

Have you ever written a fic for a fandom and if so, shout it out!: Why yes I have written a few pieces over the years for different fandoms, but for some reason being a part of The Rings of Power fandom has me writing like never before! Like I have the most WIP’s going that I’ve EVER had. It’s nuts. And the story I’m most proud of, of course, is The Blacksmith. Writing that has changed my life in so many beautiful ways and I am eternally grateful. ❤️

Have you ever drawn fan art for a fandom?: Years ago yes, but drawing isn’t my strong suit haha.

Share a personal headcanon that you feel strongly about: Hmmm the only one that comes to mind is that I’m fully on Team Repentant Sauron. (Yes I know I’m biased and also likely wrong but I DON’T CARE. 😜) There’s just something about the way he acted with Galadriel in certain scenes (in the woods, in the smithy) that speak to him truly seeking redemption. Not to mention the fact he didn’t want to leave Númenor. Am I choosing to ignore the fact he’s one of the most deceptive, cunning, and charming beings ever conceived? Yes, yes I am.

You’re trying to convince a friend to get into your current fandom(s) with you. what episode, clip, or scene are you showing them?: Oof this is a tough one. For The Rings of Power, I personally feel that episode one is a super strong pilot, so I would for sure start there. But of course, since the spoilers are everywhere, if the person I was showing knew Halbrand was Sauron, I would absolutely show them the reveal/raft vision scene. Hands down my favourite of the entire show.

And finally, what does fandom mean to you?: It’s about a safe space to express your feelings for what you love with people who love it just as much as you! It’s about supporting each other and honestly just having a good time!

Tagging, no pressure: @denzit @pursuitseternal @vellichormybeloved @coraleethroughthelookingglass @somebirdortheother @gil-galadhwen @starlady66 @helenvader @iamstartraveller776 @myrsinemezzo @klynnvakarian and anyone else who wants to share! ❤️

Chapter 14: Improvement

Just as you had predicted, a good night's sleep was all the girls needed to get their energy back. It seemed like the grueling journey before this concert had invigorated the girls instead of tiring them out. You sat on a couch backstage with Jihyo across from you, happily observing as the members laughed and chatted together.

"After tonight there's just one more stop, how does that feel?" you ask Jihyo.

She looks over at you thoughtfully, contemplating her answer. "Bittersweet. On one hand I'm proud of us for what we have accomplished, but on the other hand it has truly been so fun," she says.

"Fans always talk about how after concerts they get really sad," you say. "I don't think many of them know that it's just as bad if not worse for the idols."

Jihyo laughs, "luckily Once seem to notice how hard we work, I know we're not perfect but no one is out there saying we don't work enough."

She had a point. Most fans are always hungry for more content, but Twice has always worked so hard to keep a constant stream which resulted in their fans being a bit more understanding than other fandoms when the members took a bit of time off. After these concerts the girls would have a bit of time for themselves where they can relax, as only minimal schedules were planned. The company values these girls and it was important for their health to give them breaks, something that is a bit of a novel idea in the industry.

"I'm always impressed by the stamina you girls have, dealing with all the travel and performances and rehearsals and hours getting ready, it looks exhausting."

Jihyo smiles at you warmly, "you and the other staff also work hard, don't think that we don't notice."

You look around the room at the members in various levels of prep as stylists and staff are all walking around the green room, "that's true, but we don't have to also get on stage and act literally perfect in front of massive crowds and hundreds of cameras recording your every moment."

Jihyo looks around the room at the other members before turning to you again, "you know it's true right? When we say the fans give us energy, it's not just some line, we mean it."

You look into her eyes, her expression was genuine. You knew that she meant every word.

"It's not easy being an idol," she continues, "we have to be aware of our image at all times, and it can get exhausting protecting it from all the nonsense. But I love it, I love seeing the authentic joy in the faces of our fans. I like to think we bring real happiness to a lot of people."

"So that's where the energy comes from?" you ask.

She nods her head. This year was big for Twice as it marked the end of their seven year contracts. It was no secret that renewal was a question in the girls' minds, and there was no concrete answer yet. Honestly, you weren't sure what was going to happen with the contracts. There are plenty of fans speculating about the outcomes, but the truth is that nothing was yet confirmed. It was a topic that you seldom approached as you wanted the girls to decide based on what they felt was best, but there was no denying that it was something that you thought about occasionally. Part of you thinks that this tour might have a bit of influence, as just like Jihyo, the members seem to be truly having a good time.

Momo and Nayeon join you on the couch. Momo was preoccupied with some of the snacks you had prepared, while Nayeon pulled a blanket over the two of you and leaned onto your shoulder with her hand on your thigh.

"Did you find a spot yet?" she whispers to you.

You place your hand on top of hers, "not yet, but I'll find one." Nayeon was already in her red one-piece outfit and all night you have been peeking at her. Her knee high boots were making her pale thighs look juicier than normal. Under the blanket, you move your hand from hers and onto her thigh, squeezing her leg a bit. "Have I told you I love this outfit on you yet?"

She smirks at your compliment, "you haven't even seen the whole fit yet."

You're confused by what she means, but your perplexity is quickly answered when you feel her hand gently grab yours. You feel her lift her body slightly while guiding your hand underneath her bum. She presses your finger upwards and you feel something hard.

Your eyes open wide, "is that what I think it is?"

She lets your hand go free and giggles shyly while nodding, "I'm going to perform with it in again."

"The whole night?"

"Only until we do our thing, at that point it will be necessary to remove it," she says with a wink.

Your mind drifts for a moment, thinking about Nayeon's tight body and what she wanted from you tonight. You think about Nayeon's braided pigtails and how you would later have her bent over with her round ass in the air. You absent-mindedly bring your hand to Nayeon's thighs again, squeezing the soft skin as you daydream.

You feel a sharp poke in your side, breaking you out of the trance, "ouch, what was that for?" you squeal, focusing on Nayeon who was looking at you with one eyebrow raised.

You hear Sana giggle and you turn to notice her standing in front of you, "did you fall asleep with your eyes open? I've been calling your name."

Nayeon laughs as she pulls the blanket off of you, "yeah Y/N why were you so distracted?"

"Nothing," you mumble before clearing your throat. "What can I do for you Sana?"

She smiles brightly and grabs your hand, "I need to borrow you for a quick minute, somewhere private."

Unsure where she was going with this, you stand up and follow her. You turn to Nayeon as you walk away and see her smirking at you as she cuddles up with Momo who is still completely oblivious to anything other than her snacks. You continue to follow Sana into the hallway as she types on her phone while looking for a spot.

"So what are we doing exactly?"

Sana opens the door to a small storage room and walks in, "a friend heard about the flight troubles and messaged to see if I was okay. We were talking about other stuff and she asked for a pic."

"Ahhhh so I'm your photographer, but why did we need a private place for that?"

Sana purses her lips and laughs a bit awkwardly, "umm, not quite, I need you to pull your pants down."

You are beyond confused at what she is doing, but you decide to just follow her instructions. You pull your pants down and Sana crouches down next to you. She pulls down your underwear, exposing your penis, and pulls her phone up to take a selfie as she poses next to it.

"Woah woah woah," you begin as you cover yourself with your hands, "what are you doing?"

Sana looks up and laughs, "don't worry, your face won't be in it."

"I... what... who is this for?"

Sana stands up again so that she is face to face with you and smiles, "Y/N, don't worry so much, it's just a couple of pictures for a really close friend of mine, I can assure you that she won't share them anywhere, are you okay with that?"

You let out a small sigh. It was an odd request, but you trusted her so you nodded your head to give her permission.

"Good," she says with a small bounce. She gives you a quick kiss before her expression changes to become much more seductive, "now, can you get hard for me?" she asks cutely while keeping her face close to yours.

She stays face to face with you as one of her hands reaches down and begins stroking you. Her eyes are half lidded as she bites her lip and pumps your cock slowly.

"For me, baby," she moans. "Please."

She brings her hand up and spits on her palm before bringing it back to your cock, the wetness of her saliva coating your shaft. Her minty breath hits your face as you're as close as you can be without touching. She moves her face down into your neck and starts kissing you slowly all over while her hand continuously stroked your cock.

With her other hand she grabs onto yours and places it on her chest, making you squeeze her soft tits a bit. It doesn't take long for you to get hard. Once Sana is happy with your stiffness, she crouches down once more next to you and pulls out her phone. You watch as she opens the camera app and begins posing with your cock and snapping pictures.

It was odd, but it was also kinda hot. You watch as she does all the standard poses: pouty lips, the hand V, finger hearts, and more. The only difference was that your cock was right next to her face. She makes a little kissy face and puts her lips on your tip, closing her eyes and taking another picture. Then she slips your cock into her mouth sideways so that it creates a bulge in her cheek. It was so fascinating how she was treating your cock like a toy, and you could feel yourself getting incredibly horny as the beautiful girl played with your body.

"One last position," she says as she passes you the phone, "but it needs to be from your perspective."

You take her phone and point the camera downwards when she suddenly takes your cock into her mouth. You take a picture with just the tip inside. Then she pushes her face forward so that almost your entire shaft is engulfed. You take another picture, gasping as the wetness felt phenomenal.

Sana takes the phone back as she removes your penis from her throat, "oh these are perfect!" She says happily while looking at her phone before she stands up and kisses your cheek, "thanks Y/N."

"You're welcome, now how about we-"

"Oh shoot," Sana cuts you off, "I completely forgot I was supposed to call my family before the concert." She looks at you with sad eyes, "I'm really sorry Y/N, but I have to go."

Before you can even comprehend what was going on, she had already jogged away, leaving you alone in the empty dressing. You were in shock as you stood there for a moment, considering your options. You were definitely not happy with how things just turned out, but you didn't have it in you to hold it against her. You almost considered rubbing one out, but you decided against it as you gloomily pulled your pants back up and headed back.

You walk back to the couches where Tzuyu sat alone. Tzuyu notices your erection and shoots you a look before chuckling lightly.

"This is really becoming a recurring theme with you," she says casually. "Do you want to redeem that favor real quick before the concert?"

She was so gorgeous right now with all her hair and makeup already done, ready to perform. It was a tremendously tempting offer, but you figured it wouldn't be particularly responsible right now.

"I appreciate the offer, but you should be focused on getting ready to perform."

Tzuyu returns to her snack, "you're assigned to me tonight for outfit changes, I'd prefer you aren't distracted."

"I'll manage," you respond. "You seem awfully casual tonight."

She finishes chewing the candy as she fishes into the little packet looking for her next one, "yeah, I'm feeling pretty relaxed tonight."

"Huh, you don't get nervous before concerts at all?" you ask.

"We've done this set so many times in practice and previous concerts," she says while chewing on the candy. "Really Y/N, I don't mind helping you relieve your... you know."

"I'll be okay," you say after contemplating her offer again. "I'm glad you're so confident in performing, you're a true professional."

"Yeah, the only thing hurting my confidence is you rejecting my offer to give you a blowjob," she says as she crumples up the empty candy wrapper.

"Hey that's not fair, you know I obviously want it," you object. "You're just already all ready and stuff, I don't want you to feel pressured."

She crosses her arms and laughs, "pressured? I am basically begging you."

"If this is what you really want then fine," you say hesitantly. "But we don't even have that much time before the concert."

"Ten minutes in a private area is all I need," she says assuredly. "If I can do it, I'll have my confidence back."

You smile, knowing that she wasn't taking no for an answer, "alright fine, but what if you can't do it?"

She smiles back, "then you'll have to sleep with me tonight to console me, and then I'll have to try again tomorrow."

"I like that deal, shall we do it right here?"

Her cheeks blush a little, "I thought we were going somewhere private... but I guess I wouldn't mind doing it in front of everyone," she says softly.

"Oh my, I love this super confidence," you say, "but let's go somewhere more private."

You stand up and hold your hand out to her, she takes it and you guide her out of the changing room, being subtle to try and avoid any attention. You pull out your phone and set a timer for ten minutes as you walk into the same little storage room you took those photos of Sana in. There's a small desk and chair in the corner which you walk towards. You sit down on the desk while Tzuyu sits on the chair between your legs and you pull your pants down, freeing your semi-erect cock.

"Ready?" you ask the girl between your legs.

She looks up at you with her gorgeous face and nods.

"Timer starts when you make first contact."

You expected her to be quick and to the point, but you were wrong. You watch as she brings her lips to the tip and gives your cock the slowest kiss imaginable. Then she moves forward slowly, wrapping the head in her lips until just your tip is in her mouth. You feel her tongue start moving around, covering you in her saliva. She focuses on the hole, applying pressure with her tongue while her head remains still. Then you feel her tongue slide down slightly and press against your frenulum.

You couldn't help but moan as she worked your tip with her mouth. You use your hand to move her short hair back, making it so you can clearly see her mouth and beautiful face. Her tongue keeps playing around your cock as she shows off her dexterity. Just as you're enjoying her work, she suddenly pushes forward all the way down until her lips are pressed against your crotch. You gasp out at the sudden change, as she is now holding your cock down her throat. You once again feel her tongue start working as she tries her best to lick as much as she can while still having her mouth full.

This goes on for what was probably a couple of minutes before she pulls back and lifts her mouth off your cock. She gasps loudly, fighting to get air back into her body as her saliva drips down her chin. Your entire shaft was covered, glistening in the dim light. She takes a few more moments to settle down until her breathing returns back to normal. Then she pushes her mouth forward again, now going back and forth up and down your cock. She used no hands, only her mouth, creating a tight seal with her lips.

You grab her hair again, holding it back and out of her face for her. You keep your eyes open, watching the girl move her face. It felt unreal, it was unbelievably wet and warm in her mouth, and you could still feel her tongue putting in the effort to lick away at you every time she plunged forward. She starts moving even faster, her lips tightly squeezing your cock as she blows you.

You felt yourself getting close already, probably aided by Sana's teasing earlier, but mostly because of Tzuyu's phenomenal work. You feel yourself right at the edge as she continues moving quickly, showing no signs of tiring out. You were neither trying to hold back nor trying to finish, you were simply enjoying the moment and letting whatever happens happen.

You stay on the edge for a bit longer, but what finally pushes you over is when Tzuyu looks up at you. She makes eye contact with you while her mouth keeps working, and the visual of your cock going into her mouth while her pretty face looked up at you was too much to handle. You feel yourself start pulsing inside her mouth, and you notice the sides of Tzuyu's lips smile slightly.

She was proud of her work, keeping your cock in her mouth until you finished cumming. A little bit started to leak out of the side of her lips as there was too much for her. You watch as she swallows your load, finally releasing your cock from her mouth. She leans her head back and opens her mouth, showing you that it was all gone. You didn't need to see how much cum there was to know there was a lot. You let go of her hair and lean back, grabbing the phone on the table next to you to stop the timer.

"Just over seven minutes," you let her know.

Still sitting between your legs, Tzuyu smiles proudly up at you. You take the sleeve of your hoodie and wipe her chin for her, admiring her cute features. It was obvious that Tzuyu had been asking the other girls for advice on giving head. Not that she was bad at it before, but this is definitely the best blowjob she has given you. If you had to guess, based on her technique she probably asked Chaeyoung and Mina for advice, it would explain why she was so adamant on doing it.

"I think I need to get my makeup touched up," she says while looking down between her legs and the small puddle of her saliva and your cum that leaked out.

You get off the desk and pull your pants up, holding your hand out to her. She takes it and stands up, as the two of you return to the dressing room.

The concert, for the most part, ran pretty smoothly. It seemed like the girls were a bit extra excited to perform, probably because of the difficulty they had with the travels. The crowd was great, not as loud as some of the other stops, but very responsive to the girls. You observed on the screens, the little fan service driving fans mad. You watch as they finish performing Heart Shaker, with the cute interaction between Nayeon and Sana. It was a fun little thing they were doing this tour, every concert they changed it up. They rush back into the changing room and start changing into their subunit outfits.

The Push and Pull unit was already getting ready, while the other two groups took a moment to relax and refresh themselves. Nayeon walks over to you, still wearing her silver outfit. The knee high boots with the small skirt did a great job of emphasizing her juicy thighs again, while the small sleeveless crop top made her frame look tiny. She walks past you, looking over her shoulder to motion to you to follow her, towards the door. You walk behind her, looking around the room to see if anyone would notice. Your eyes meet with Momo who smirks at you, as she was one of the few members who knew about your deal with Nayeon. You couldn't help but think she was a bit jealous, but of course Momo would never tell you that.

Once out of the room, Nayeon turns to face you, "did you find a spot?"

"Yeah I did, come on."

"Thank God," she sighs, "you don't know how badly I've wanted this, it was so hard to perform with this distraction up my ass."

You give her butt a light slap as you walk to the storage room, "it was your idea remember."

"I know," she moans. "I want you to fuck me hard tonight."

There was no subtlety this time, she wasn't playing around. You loved how horny she was tonight, especially since you have been fixated on her thighs all night, too. The two of you enter the same storage room and Nayeon immediately walks over to the desk. You look at the floor, the mess from earlier had mostly dried up but there were still traces of Tzuyu's saliva present. As she walks over, she unzips the side of her small, tight skirt and removes it. She places the skirt on the table and bends over it, looking back at you with lustful eyes.

"Hard," she commands as she looks back over her shoulder, "please."

You step up behind her and slap her ass, watching as her thighs jiggle in response, "whatever my princess demands."

With both hands, you pull down her underwear. You help her untangle the garment from her feet before stepping back to admire the view. Nayeon was bent over the desk, still wearing the small crop top and her knee high boots, with her bare ass sticking up towards you. You could see just the slightest glint from the metal plug in her ass. You crouch down behind her. From this angle you could clearly see her pussy was quite moist; Nayeon, generally being the wettest member, was clearly craving this moment all night. You slide a finger up her slit, watching as her juices adhere to it and leave a small trail between your finger and her pussy.

Tonight, however, that was not the hole of interest. You bring both hands up and spread her cheeks, exposing the metal plug entirely. You stuff your face forward into her ass and lick circles around the base of the plug. As you wet her asshole with your mouth, you start hearing her gentle moans. You don't spend too much time as you were still time constrained, and you were pretty sure Nayeon wouldn't be happy if you stalled tonight. With one hand you grip the base of the plug and slowly pull it back. She moans a bit louder as the toy stretches her asshole. You pause when the plug is at the thickest point, stretching her asshole to the max. You lean your face back into her ass and lick around again, contrasting the tight feeling of the plug with the soothing feeling of your tongue.

You could tell that she loved this based on her moaning. Finally, you lean back a bit and pull the plug all the way out, the sound of Nayeon's light gasp was music to your ears. You place the plug on the table and take one last look at her from behind; Her pussy dripped a bit, leaving droplets of her fluids on the floor where Tzuyu had spilled her saliva earlier.

You stand up and remove your pants after first taking out a small bottle of lube from your pocket. You had learned it was best to keep a small bottle on you at all times nowadays, as you never knew when it would be needed. You generously apply the lube to your cock and her asshole before standing up behind her with your hands on her cheeks and your cock at her asshole.

She looks back over her shoulder again, "hard," she reminds you.

It was all the invitation you needed, as you started pressing forward. Her ass accepted your cock much better now, but it was still incredibly tight. You watch Nayeon's face wince as you push forward slowly until half of your cock is in her ass. You give her a second to get used to it as she faces forward. You see her hands gripping the desk tightly, making her knuckles white. It was time to give her what she requested.

With both hands, you squeeze her ass cheeks hard, playing with the softness. Then you start thrusting. It wasn't slow and loving, it was hard and ruthless. Nayeon had started to moan, loudly. Each thrust you did went about halfway into her ass before pulling back. You knew she wanted it hard tonight, but part of you was still afraid of hurting her. Slowly but surely, with each subsequent thrust you push deeper. Almost your entire cock going in now. Her asshole had become noticeably looser at this point, accepting more and more of your shaft every time.

Your thrusts were almost going balls deep, you figured it was time to go all the way. You slap one of her ass cheeks, the sound ringing in the air, before slamming your cock as deep as it can go. Nayeon lets out what was basically a scream as you hold yourself inside her for a moment. You give her a moment to adjust and to give her a chance to stop if she wants to.

She didn't. After a few moments, you feel her body trying to move back and forth.

You take the hint and return to fucking her. You don't go as fast as you were earlier, but you make sure to go all the way in each time. Her asshole was squeezing hard on your cock as you thrust hard into her, slowly. Pausing between each thrust to admire the jiggle of her thighs and ass when your body hit hers. You stop thrusting quite so hard and begin to pick up the pace a little. It was more rhythmic now as you got into a consistent motion. You brought one of your hands down around her lower body until it found her pussy.

Just as you expected, she was soaked. You lightly pat her folds while you fuck her, and you can hear the sound of drops hitting the floor. You start rubbing her pussy, not caring about how messy your hand was. As you play with her body, you feel her asshole loosen up a bit more. You speed up just a bit with both your thrusting and your hand.

Nayeon's screams had turned into heavy breaths as she was still gripping the table very hard. You use her breaths to guide your movement, speeding up as she sped up. You could tell she was getting close. You insert a finger into her pussy, fucking both holes now at once. Her breaths pick up even more. The trends continue and soon you find Nayeon is basically hyperventilating with how fast she was breathing. She starts moaning again as you remove your finger and start rubbing her clit hard.

You can feel droplets of her cum flying all over, hitting your legs and sprinkling on the floor. Soon her moans get louder and louder until she is basically screaming again. You fuck her hard while your hand works overtime on her clit. Suddenly you feel her ass tense up as her legs buckle. You pull your cock out and focus entirely on rubbing her pussy as you lean forward onto her back.

You ride out the orgasm with her, your chest on her back still, until you feel her breaths slow down and return to normal. You get off her body and sit down on the chair, Nayeon's ass still up in the air in front of you. You gently stroke yourself with the hand that was covered in Nayeon's juices. She pushes on the desk with her hands until she is standing upright and turns around to face you. Her face was flushed and there were a couple of tears on her cheeks.

"Oh my God are you okay?" you ask, worried that it was too much for her. "I'm sor-"

"I'm fine, I really enjoyed it," she says as she wipes her face. "Thank you."

You were really close to cumming as well, but you were too afraid of pushing her body too far to say anything. Luckily, Nayeon already knew as if she could read your mind.

"I want you to cum in my ass."

You hesitate, "Nayeon, are you sure?"

She nods her head, "absolutely."

You stand up again and grab her waist, slowly turning her around when she stops you.

"No, I want to watch you as you do it," she whispers.

You smile at her request before picking her up from her thighs and placing her on the desk. You lift her legs up high into the air until her asshole is in front of you again. You lean forward and give her hole a quick kiss before standing back up and placing your tip and her entrance.

"Maybe not as hard," she giggles, looking up at you.

You smile as you stare into her eyes and slowly press your cock back into her asshole. As she requested, you go slowly. Taking the time to enjoy her body to the fullest, stimulating every nerve in your penis with her tight ass. Her body seemed to accept you entirely now as she was really getting used to your cock. It really doesn't take long as you were already so close, and within probably just a minute or two of gentle thrusts you feel yourself about to cum.

You start panting a bit, and right before you start filling her ass you gasp. You pump your cum as she stares up at you with the softest, most loving expression. Once you feel your cock eventually stop pulsing, you withdraw from her ass. You spread her cheeks lightly and watch as your cum very quickly starts spilling out, landing mostly on the floor between your legs. This is when you finally notice how much of Nayeon's fluids was on the floor.

You pull Nayeon back up and kiss her lips, "I'll clean up, we need to get you back though."
