Here’s a comic that’s based on an idea from @hear-that-music-in-the-air! Since it’s kinda long half of it is under the split so it doesn’t stretch too far 😅

Trying to find progressive masculine community is so exhausting.
I've flipped through local men's groups, trying to find places to explore masculinity in a chill, progressive setting. First of all, they mostly seem to be modelled after AA, and like, my gender isn't a debilitating addiction, it's part of my identity actually, but also, the invite and description of the event have maybe a short paragraph tops actually waving vaguely in the direction of what the purpose of the group is, and then ten to twenty paragraphs breaking down the rules. One spent longer talking about the hand signals he would use to direct conversation than he did describing what the conversation would be about. Another had a full paragraph explaining that if the group thought you were evading what they thought your "real" problem was, they'd probably "call you to take accountability". Like...I don't even know who these people are yet and they're already letting me know that they view it as their right, no, their duty, to bully me into seeing things their way. Like, this is in the invite.
...and this warning is there instead of any sort of breakdown of like, I dunno. Whether you should be a feminist to show up. Whether it was a safe space for queer men. What the hell they wanted to talk about. Joining a men's space is on some level inherently submitting yourself to the authority of the leaders of that group, and you don't usually get a particularly clear breakdown of what the values and goals of those leaders are, because on some level the answer is always going to be "whatever I want"
And like, unfortunately you do need to filter men to build a men's space. You do need to remove or chastise men who act in ways that are toxic or disruptive or misogynistic. If you don't things turn into an MRA chapter pretty quick. But the sort of emergency powers that leadership takes on as a result of that...just kind of naturally end up reproducing masculine heirarchies.
MensLib, the only online community of progressive dudes talking about masculinity that I'm aware of, is...on Reddit. So there is a moderator system. In theory, a moderator is there to...moderate. This is a space where people are going to be talking, and mods are there to make sure things don't get too toxic or off topic.
The issue is that, on some level, that is technically a leadership position. In a sub trying to rehabilitate masculinity. So you've got a bunch of folks who view themselves as the leaders of this bastion of goodness standing against the depredations of the misogynistic internet, guiding the hapless smooth-brain neophytes towards The True Way.
In practice, this looks like 95 percent of the posts submitted for the subreddit being rejected. That isn't hyperbole. On average, the sub has about one new post per day. Almost all posts directly relating a personal experience are deleted immediately, in favour of articles written about masculinity in traditional media publications, which are considered more trustworthy than the sus lived experiences of the guys in the sub. The post I wrote here about the effect of purity culture on male sexual shame that's sitting at about 15K notes was based on a 10K word post I wrote for Reddit that was deleted because "I didn't cite any sources to prove that there is a link between purity culture and male sexual shame, or that my experience was anything more than anecdotal". I get comments deleted on a regular basis, and after paragraphs of protesting in modmail that my comments are both fully in line with feminism and not against the rules, the mods have just finally told me that the rules don't actually drive their actions as a team. They delete anything they feel leads the conversation in a direction they personally feel is unproductive. The rule cited at the time of deletion is really just the broad category of why they decided to hit the button that says nobody is allowed to read what I wrote.
The issue is kind of twofold. First of all, progressive men do not trust other men. A good dude knows that he, individually, is a good person, but literally any other man external to him is on thin ice. Do you really want to tie your wagon to that guy? Do you trust him, really? How do you tell the difference between a guy criticizing an article because it's factually incorrect and criticising it because a woman wrote it? Probably best to play it safe and delete it. Weight of the odds, he's probably a misogynist, right? This is the internet.
And thats the other half of it. If you view yourself as part of the leadership of The Good Guys, and you're getting hatemail from incels and facists all day, you get to the point where most of the time people challenge your authority it's because they're a terrible person. It is very, very easy to get to the point where someone challenging you is seen as evidence that they are a bad person. And now someone is challenging you (and therefore bad), in an environment where you are in charge, and you have a "make your opponent disappear" button.
I know. A Reddit mod was rude to me and now I'm butthurt. It's petty and stupid. I'm just feeling like there's nowhere else to really go, and I'm pretty despondent that literally every space I've seen that even looks like it might be for progressive men has the same deeply hierarchical structure and constant status-oriented squabbling as patriarchal spaces.

Crass
Tumblr media
Pairing: Chris Sturniolo X Female Reader
Synopsis: Y/N hates Chris with every fiber in her body, but one night while clubbing things take a turn🤭
Warnings⚠️: SMUTTTTTT, hate sex?? Fucking in a public place, enemies to lovers-ish??? Mann idk it’s just sum sweet for the kids (hope yall know that meme. I do not write for kids)🤞🏽
Song for the imagine: Rude Boy- Rihanna
⚠️This is an 18+ imagine, so minors do not interact, or do??⚠️
I like the way you touch me there
I like the way you pull my hair
Babe, if I don’t feel it I ain’t faking no, no
Can’t remember the last time Chris and I ever got along. He was such a fucking dick always, and I was a bitch. Everyone tried to keep us apart most of the time.
I wasn’t exactly too sure why I hated him. It could be the fact that he thought he was untouchable, hot and his ego was bigger than his fuck ass hair. I really had it out for the guy
I hate any guy who acts like they’re all that, and that their shit doesn't stink. It made my blood boil because who are you? You're a nobody go away. Chris was the textbook definition of this
Actually Chris was the definition of toxic masculinity. Every ick a guy could give you was exactly what Chris was. If some of these girls knew half of who he really was they’d leave his ass in the dirt.
I was Nicks friend, but he came as a package deal with his loving sweet brother Matt, and that fucking gremlin Chris. Usually my interactions with him included me rolling my eyes at him, huffing at his words and full on walking away while he was in the middle of speaking. Because it’s like shut the fuck up, you know?
Tonight Nick asked me to come to the club with them because Nick really wanted to dance. Weird ass request but I agreed…it’s dancing with Nick I had to go
I had gone to the triplets house while they were all getting ready. I let myself in, and walked to Nicks room where Matt and Chris were also at
“Hiii” I said walking in
“Ughhhh” Chris said groaning and throwing his head back
“Shut the fuck up” I said throwing my purse at him
“Why are you always tagging along” he said
“In case you didn’t know Nick invited me first, and then I presumed you were being an ass eater and had to come too” I said giving him a bitchy smile
“Whatever” he said rolling his eyes
“Exactly” I said laughing at him
“Mattttt you look so cute” I said looking at his outfit
“Thank youuu” he said smiling at me
“And me?” Chris asked
“Who gives a fuck about you” I said giving him a dirty look
“Y/N what color shirt?” Nick asked me holding up two shirts a purple one and a green one
“Purple all the way” I said to him
“Great minds think alike” he said nodding at me, and walked to the bathroom to put the shirt on
“Y/N thinking? Who would’ve thought” Chris said scoffing
“You’re lucky you’re nicks brother because if not I would’ve laid your ass out by now” I said looking at him
“Guys no fighting” Matt said
“Yeah sure…” Chris said scoffing
“You don’t know my past, I beat up guys like you” I said looking at him
“Whole lot of yapping shut it” Chris said kicking my back
“You fucking dick that hurt” I said reaching back and pinching his leg
“Ow you bitch” he said pulling his leg away
“Enough fighting for once holy shit” Nick said coming out of the bathroom
“Tell your dog of a brother to chill out before I clock his shit” I said to Nick
“Chris be nice for once” Nick said looking at him
“I’ll try, but I can’t make no promises” he said smiling
We had all piled into their car, and headed downtown to the clubs. When we arrived we walked to the one that looked the safest for Nick and I.
We headed in and found a table to sit at in the back. We ordered some drinks, and once we drank them Nick and I went up to the dance floor to dance
We were dancing to Pour it Up by Rihanna singing and dancing on each other.
“THROW IT THROW IT UP WATCH IT FALL OUT” we screamed as we danced
Once the song ended we headed back to the table
“Fuck I love dancing” I said sitting down and drinking my water
“Me fucking too” Nick said catching his breath
All of a sudden Bottoms Up started playing
“FUCKKKK THIS IS MY SHIT” Nick and I screamed
We had gotten up and danced to the song for like two minutes before needing another break.
We sat back down, and was bopping to the song
Right as it got to Nicki’s part Nick started recording, and turned the camera on me, so I started rapping
“I’m with a bad bitch, he’s with his friends” I said pointing over to Chris, and Nick recorded it
“I don’t say hi, I say keys to the Benz” I said sticking my hand out at Chris
Nick started recording Chris and Matt and himself, and then flipped it back to me
“YELLIN all around the world, do you hear me? DO YOU LIKE MY BODY? ANNA NICKI” I said rubbing my hands all over my body
Nick finished recording and posted it to his instagram story, and by this point Rude Boy by Rihanna started playing
“WE HAVE TO DANCE” I said to Nick
“I’m sooo tired I’ll get the next one” he said fanning himself
“Chris?” I asked him randomly, he looked at me before nodding, and following me to the dance floor
I started singing to him
“Come here rude boy, boy, can you get it up?” While swaying my hips
He pulled me in whispering in my ear
“Be careful how you sing at me” he said
“Don’t flatter yourself rude boy” I said winking at him
I went to walk away, but he pulled me back slamming my back against his
“You want to dance, so fucking dance” he said sternly sending a shiver down my spine. I wonder if this was the three drinks I had making me feel this way
He held me by stomach against him while I grinded up against him, and he followed his hips with mine
I spun around swaying my hips and dragging my hands down his body as I went lower, and then came back up swaying my hips while looking into his eyes
“You’re sexy as fuck when you do that” he said leaning in
“I must be mistaken, is Chris Sturniolo being nice to me?” I said turning around and grinding against him again
“Don’t push your luck baby” he said gripping my waist
I continued to sway my hips against hip, and let my head fall back onto his shoulder
I looked over at him, and he was looking at me already
“Kiss me I know you want to” I said with a smirk
Suddenly Chris lips crashed to mine, and we began to have a heated make out session as he ran his hands up and down my body as we danced
Soon we pulled away, and I looked at him before walking off the dance floor and heading back to the table
“What the fuck was that?” Matt asked shocked
“I have no fucking idea” I said closing my eyes and shaking my head
“Still hate me?” Chris said walking up from behind me
“Shut up…you got lucky” I said looking at him
“I’m going to the bathroom” I said walking away
I got to the bathroom, and there was only two girls ahead of me, it was a single stall
When it was my turn, as soon as I got in and locked the door I heard banging on the door. I unlocked it and opened it seeing Chris
“What the fuck?” I said, and before I could react Chris shoved his way into the bathroom locking the door behind him
“You hate me so much just fuck me already” he said walking over to me
“Why would I fuck you?” I said rolling my eyes
“You don’t look at me, touch me and kiss me like that and think it’s fine” he said
“Come on then Chris I can take you” I said smirking at him
He ran up to me crashing our lips together, and slamming me against the wall with a thud
We began to make out sloppy, my hands raking through his hair and him grabbing my body harshly with want and need
“Getting handsy are we?” I said pulling away
“Stop being a tease already” he said rolling his eyes
“Where’s the fun in that” I said
“Fuck I hate you so much” he said biting his lip and smashing his lips to mine again
Going down to my neck leaving sloppy wet kisses
“Fuck Chris” I moaned out throwing my head back against the wall
“We have to be quick” he said coming back up to look at me
“Yeah okay” I said in bliss
Chris hiked my dress up, and unbuckled his belt sliding his pants and boxers down enough for his dick to spring out
“Such a slut, letting me fuck you in here” he said slipping his hand into my underwear rubbing my clit
“Fuck Chris” I moaned out looking into his eyes
“Just fuck me already, I hate you I don’t want this to go on longer than it needs to” I said through gritted teeth
“You might hate me, but you’ll love this dick” he said smirking at me
“Arrogant fuck” I said
“Annoying bitch” he said back
He lifted up my right leg, bring his dick to my entrance and slowly inserting himself into me
“Shiitttt” I moaned out wrapping my hands around his neck
He lifted both my legs up completely holding me up against the wall by fucking into me
“Mmm for someone who hates me so much you sure are taking my dick well” he said moaning out
“Just because I hate you doesn’t mean you’re not hot” I said moaning and licking my lips
“Oh she thinks I’m hot” he said
“If you weren’t balls deep in me right now I would’ve smacked the shit out of you” I moaned out throwing my head back
“Play nice baby” he said thrusting into me faster and harder
“Fuckkk Chris this feels so good” I said
“You feel so good around me baby” he moaned out
Chris was thrusting into me at an ungodly pace, and I hope no one was outside waiting for this bathroom
“All it takes was for my dick to be in you to get you to play nice” he said cockily
“You’re lucky your dick game is strong because I hate you so fucking much right now” I said
“The feelings mutual babe, nothing new here” he said huffing out
“Shut the fuck up” I said
“You’re so annoying” he said back
Chris started to pound into me even harder causing my eyes to roll to the back of my head, and my mouth to fall slack
“I’m going to cum holy shit” I moaned out letting my head fall forward
“Yeah baby cum on my cock. I know it’s all you’ve ever wanted” he said with a cocky grin
“Don’t boost your ego” I panted out
He kept pounding into me, and I started to clench down on him. My toes pointing in my shoes and my thighs beginning to shake
“FUCKKKK IM CUMMINGGG” I screamed out allowing my thighs to shake, and my pussy to clench around Chris cock
I was coming down from my high, my eyes still shut, my mouth still open and my breathing heavy.
Chris pulled out and helped me down on the ground. Pumping his cock in his hand, and suddenly he came into his hand his lower abdomen constricting and his brows furrowing as his mouth fell slack
“Fuck Y/N” he said fucked out
I had fixed my underwear and slid my dress back down
“I still fucking hate you” I said looking in the mirror and fixing myself up
“I fucking hate you too don’t worry” he said pulling his pants up with his other hand, and coming over to wash his hands
“Friends with benefits?” I asked him
“Only if we’re only fucking each other” he said drying his hands
“Ohhh territorial?” I asked him
“You’re mine” he said
“I thought you hated me?” I asked
“Oh I do, don't get it twisted” he said fixing his belt
“Mmm sounds like you have a crush” I said fixing my makeup
“Do not” he said rolling his eyes
“It’s okay Chris I have a crush too” I said winking at him
“I don’t like you” he said rolling his eyes at me
“Yeah keep telling yourself that….” i said getting ready to leave the bathroom
I had unlocked the door, and shockingly nobody was waiting. I walked out, and Chris followed after. Coming up behind me grabbing my hand and interlocking our fingers
“Mmmm but no crush?” I asked him
“Don’t push it” he said giving me a stern look
We got back to the table and Nick and Matt were looking at us with smirks on their face
“Hope yall fucked the hate out” Matt said
“Mmm fucked, but the hates still there” I said shrugging my shoulders
“Yall are absolute dogs” Nick said laughing
“What can I say” Chris said shrugging his shoulders
We had decided to head out, and head home. For someone who hates me Chris sure did enjoy having me staying in his room that night…..
The End
Alright guys I hope you enjoyed this one because I sure did……am I becoming a Chris girl??? LMAOO HELL NAH I KNOW WHERE HOME IS I LOVE YOU MATT🧎🏽‍♀️🖤

injured!seunghan x femworker!reader
summary ; wherein seunghan has a broken arm and needs your help with a problem of his.
warnings ; blowjobs, oral ( m.reciving ), subby seunghan, toxic masculinity, dom!reader, minors dni
Tumblr media
You were working hard on your last couple of hours on your shift. It was Thursday and that was technically you’re Friday, your off day and there was nothing you wanted more than to just finish, close, and then go home and rest.
Until the door dinged and you sighed seeing a group of boys walk in talking loudly amongst themselves.
You sighed. “Welcome to Pizza Hut how can I help you?” You plastered a artificial smile on your face, ignoring seunghan since that was the only boy you knew. Seunghan stepped up, “I thought you were supposed to say how can I jingle your bells this Christmas?” Seunghan said very serious, his friends laughing at his lame attempt of a joke.
“It’s the eleventh of December, Christmas isn’t here yet” you said dryly, glaring dead into seunghan’s eyes who smirked at you, smugly looking away from you. “Now, are you guys gonna order or just stand there until we close?” You asked now growing impatient as the boys stood very complacent amongst each other.
“Yeah. We’ll order,” one of seunghan’s friends joked, walking close to you, “I’ll order whatever will make you take your clothes off for me” the friend said loudly and whilst the others in the group laughed seunghan didn’t find his comment funny, he rolled his eyes “chill bro, don’t be disrespectful” seunghan brushed away from them, going back to order.
“Yeah um just two pepperoni pizza’s” he said as his friends kept making jokes, laughing loudly at you who just wanted to go home and watch coryxkenshin until you fell asleep.
“Mhm, that’ll be 13.43” you said as he handed you his card, his eyes watching your every move. You gave him his card back and contorted your face seeing him stare at you, raising an eyebrow at him, “is.. that all? Did you want a drink or something?” You ask and he snapped out of the gaze, shaking his head no.
You gave him his receipt and walked off to tell your co-workers about their meal.
It had been a couple minutes and you were in the hallway on your phone, browsing on social media since your shift was practically over and that last order was the last one before you could go home for the day.
“Hey” seunghan walked up to you and you glanced up at him now seeing his cast on his arm, multiple writings and drawings on it that drew your attention to it. “What happened to your cast? I didn’t even see it at the register..” you said holding his arm, you looked at him to see why he didn’t answer and he avoided your eyes, staring at the floor awkwardly.
“Hello? You can’t hear now?” You said looking at what he was looking at- which was absolutely nothing. Seunghan sighed, “okay so- this is really weird to ask since we’re like study buddies but I’m hard right now and I can’t- you know” he says to you and you resist the urge to laugh, staring at him in utter shock.
“You can’t- oh- you’re serious?” You burst out laughing, dropping his arm out of your hold to cover your face from laughing too hard. “You think I’m gonna help you get off? Seriously?” You said in more laughter and astonishment, while seunghan didn’t find anything funny, he was hard and he only used his right hand to jerk himself off, he couldn’t do that now and it was haunting him.
“Please..” seunghan begged, his voice sounded different then it has ever sounded. It had even made your laughter die down. His begging had almost awakened something in you, something you wouldn’t dare speak about to others but for this moment of time, seunghan was making you think about it.
You stared down at his black sweatpants and immediately saw his bulge, your eyes went back up to his and you smirked, grabbing his erect tightly. Seunghan gasped in shock, his hand going to yours in some attempt to grab his control back onto the situation. “Why should I help you?” You ask while moving your hand to palm him slowly,
Seunghan leaned his head on the wall, his eyes glued shut and his mind already turned into mush. “P-Please.. I need to-” he tried to say but you started moving your hand quicker now, sliding his sweats down and smirking deeper when you realized he wasn’t wearing any underwear.
“Need to what? You need to cum?” You taunted, fully wrapping your hands around him as he made pretty sounds, begging for more, begging for release.
“Wait, y/n I’m about to-” seunghan bucked into your hand, you reached your hand around his mouth as he was too loud, his moans echoing off the walls as he finished on your hand.
You smirked at seunghan who was coming back to reality now, panting heavily as he avoided your eyes. “Don’t tell anyone about this” his voice was low, quiet as if it was dangerous for him to raise it and it brought you to a chuckle, shaking your head.
“What? Scared I’m gonna tell your little friends?”
Seunghan rolled his eyes, getting you a paper towel from the kitchen. “I’m not scared of them”
“Oh? Really? So if I tell them right now you wouldn’t be mad at me?” You dated watching him shrug. You walked over to the opening and opened your mouth to call them over and seunghan rushed over to you, covering your mouth instantly. “Chill out.. there’s no need for all that”
“Alright then, thought so” you said walking past him to wash your hands and clock out.
Seunghan walked over to his friends table and they stared at him with a grin, “so? You get some of that girl?” One of his friends asked with a smirk, seunghan sat down and shrugged acting nonchalant, “no clue what you’re on about but okay”
“Bruh, we heard her moaning.. begging and whimpering. You not slick” another one of his friends added on and seunghan almost choked, chills running down his spine. Is that how he sounded? He was sure he sounded more manly than what his friends were implying.
“Must’ve heard someone else” seunghan lied as his friends all took the bait, shrugging as they changed the subject.
xoxo, riea!

What does your favorite Aot boy tells me about you/your romantic preference????
 100% shitpost,I'm no therapist feel free to disagree.Before scrolling down try to pick 1-2 of your fave(I know it's hard D:) +I ranked them from my fave to least.
REİNER:You just want to be held,comforted and appreciated.You seriously don't want any drama and rather share some sincere,deep emotions.You really appreciate when a man shows their vulnerable side and open with you.Just as you would appreciate a man's tears you'd also appreciate their strong masculine presence.Which you definitely seek some HEALTHY masculinity in a s/o as this makes you feel safe and loved.Also you want big boy hugs that will comfort you.
PORCO:You are most likely to have a mean flirting style but you are still chill and don't want any real fights in a relationship as you get heartbroken easily .You love it when someone keeps you on your toes without being a real asshole.This gives you healthy sexual tension.Overall you want fun, love and passion at the same time.You are KİNDLY playful yet emotionally intense.You hide your feelings with sarcasm A LOT.
JEAN:You are also a very emotionally intelligent person but you might be a little bit of a hopeless romantic.You love the thrill of being in love and anything that comes with it.You still appreciate cliche/cheesy romantic gestures.At love you might be slightly masochistical and platonic yet very adoring.You have big simp tendacies and you are dreamy.When you love,you love beautifully.Literally aesthetically.You live your love like an old romance movie which might come off fake or shallow to others but actually you internalize it A LOT.
ZEKE:You are mentally fcked up.You should seriously go see a real therapist rather than trying to cope up with dark humour.You might get attracted to slightly older and dominant men.You are pursuing a toxic love life that's dangerous.You have an apetite for toxic masculinity and controlling behaviour.You do this 100% on purpose because enjoy it and not by mistake but this can be risky.You LOVE mind games and get bored from anything soft hearted.After all what is love to you without a pinch of manipulation?
CONNİE:You are the most relaxed and down to earth person ever.It's important for you to be friends with your romantical interest because relationships just feels easier and more fun like that.You really want to be able to talk about EVERYTHİNG going on in your life unfiltered.Obvious flirting might make you feel uncomfortable as you prefer to keep it playful and soft hearted.Also you want your love interest 7/24 around you but not in a clingy way.That's why a somewhat childish friendly love charms you.
EREN:You like sterotypical toxic romance.The type where couples punches walls,screams and throws things.You think this is passionate and you love your men a little problematic.You are slightly masochistical and want some drama.You also feel things deeply and somewhat hot headed.You might have an interesting urge to cling onto emotionally unavailable men.Angry sex is possibly your way of emotional bounding.
ARMİN:If you like Armin because he's so calm and kind and sympatic etc. Sorry to say,you are a little bad at reading people.Because in reality he is quite capable of heavy manipulation and hide it behind his angel face.On this matter maybe he's even more dangerous than Zeke.If you realised this but he's still your favorite then you too love mindgames and passive agressive drama in a relationship.You think intelligence and sophistication is the sexiest thing about a love interest.You love subtle manipulation fights in a relationship.

I hate that Ted is portrayed as a kind, caring, good coach. I’m not saying he hasn’t been kind or caring to the team and others, but I hate a lot of the decisions he makes. He’s such a non-confrontational person, to the point where he never addresses the problems the team has, which is a part of being a coach. He’s supposed to manage the team, which means making sure the team dynamic runs smoothly and the players aren’t having any problems. Yet he tasks Roy, who has shown himself to be an emotionally stunted, angry person, with making sure Colin and Isaac stop bothering Nate and getting Jamie’s attitude in check. And then he repeatedly tries to force Roy and Jamie into bonding with each other, treating Jamie like he’s the antagonist in the situation (which he sometimes is) despite the fact that Roy is in a clear position of power over Jamie and Roy himself doesn’t exactly treat Jamie with respect or kindness.
He lets Jamie’s behavior build up, and tries to get Jamie to like him and sweet talk him into behaving (the whole ‘ur such a good player but ur one of 11’ speech). Then, when Jamie still continues with his bad behavior, he gets into Jamie’s personal space and yells in his face while towering over him in front of the team . Even though Ted didn’t know about Jamie’s father, this was still a completely inappropriate course of behavior. If one of my coworkers was being rude and messing up the workplace dynamic and I saw my boss yell in their face like that, I would be immediately heading to HR. And when Ted benches Jamie after Roy tries to attack him??? Yes what Jamie did was fucked up but Roy was acting like a fucking dickhead too. And it was probably sending mixed messages to Jamie, because there Ted was acting all nice and kind and being placating about Jamie’s attitude, then suddenly Jamie’s being benched and then Ted’s yelling at him with no warning. Like if Ted has just said from the beginning that Jamie’s behavior was unacceptable and if he kept acting like a ball hog and a bad teammate then he would be benched, I think Jamie would’ve probably stopped acting like a fucking prick. But instead of setting clear boundaries, he avoided the issue and then had an outburst when he wasn’t getting the results he wanted.
It doesn’t just happen in season 1 either, there are moments scattered throughout the whole show where Ted ultimately fails to do his job and act like an actual boss to the team. I understand, in part, that some of this is probably caused by toxic masculinity and ‘sports culture’ but it still doesn’t excuse his actions, or inactions. He lies about Jamie coming back (even if it wasn’t technically a lie at the time), then he does nothing to help Jamie adjust to being back on the team while everyone hates him (the ‘Led Tasso’ bit was not an appropriate form of help). He brings Roy back as a coach, then does nothing about Roy’s unprofessionalism and refusal to coach Jamie. He doesn’t even offer any meaningful advice to Jamie about it. It shouldn’t have been a situation that Jamie had fix by himself. Ted, as the one in charge, should’ve pulled Roy aside and talked to him about it (it irks me to this day that pulled Roy aside about Trent but not about Jamie). He doesn’t say anything about Nate, who revealed private information to the press, and allows Nate to keep coaching. Like did he not even think about the fact that Nate could’ve potentially told the press information about other people on the team???
And then in Season 3 he ignores Jamie’s complaints about Zava, and lets the entire coaching staff insult and belittle him for being worried about the team’s dynamic. He ignores the fact that Jamie was right about the dynamic getting messed up. He never apologizes or acknowledges it after Zava leaves either. When Isaac went after that homophobe, he just told Isaac to chill out and not take it seriously when Isaac was legitimately upset, once again ignoring the issue and focusing on the wrong thing. If someone I knew had attacked someone who was shouting slurs at them, telling them they fucked up while they were still clearly upset wouldn’t be my first, nor my second, nor third or fourth or fifth reaction. AND AFTER EVERYTHING TED HAS THE AUDACITY TO TELL JAMIE TO FORGIVE HIS FATHER???? Like I understand it was Jamie’s choice to contact his dad and that Ted never told him too, but did Ted literally just never once consider the fact that the advice he was giving him might put him in danger? Not even just physically, but mentally as well?
I just think Ted is so focused on trying to keep people happy that he misses the fact that sometimes you have to confront and feel your negative emotions in order to get to the core of a problem.
I just hate it when media portrays characters a certain way, to the point where they’re practically shouting ‘look at him, he’s so nice and kind and he’s never done anything wrong’ and then have the character make shitty decisions and never resolve or confront the mistakes they made?? They never get any consequences??
That being said, I don’t view Ted as a completely horrible or evil person either, just someone with a lot of flaws that I wish were more acknowledged. He can be a good person and he has helped some of the people on the team, but he’s also hurt them in some ways and that’s never really addressed.

Crimson Nights & Predators
Hiyaa. Since it’s been an eternity this one is a little on the longer side. Kind of an early mgg birthday celebration🎉💕 let me know if you need a part two! Also: sorry for portraying poor Andersson this way😂 inspo for the slow song:
Tumblr media
Description: Spencer enjoys Rossis wedding/the view of his favorite colleague. Then someone disrupts his bliss..
Pairing: Reid x female bau reader
Content: pining, jealousy, just protective cutiepie Spence
Warnings: toxic masculinity, disrespectful talk about women, alcohol consumption
Wordcount: 1900
~~~
"Damn, excuse my French but what I'd do to hit that..."
An almost snorting kind of spiteful laugh disrupted the harmony of the occasion and ripped Spencer from his cheerful thoughts.
It was Rossi’s wedding. He has been so happy for his older colleague and mentor all day, celebrating life with his favorite people. It didn’t matter they were work, it felt just like family. The kind of big chaotic family he himself never had.
It was only an added bonus that he got to admire his longtime crush and coworker y/n in a gorgeous, crimson-colored dress all day. Enhancing the curves around her waistline just beautifully. As much as he didn't want to focus on such superficialities, even he couldn't deny that thought. Every now and then catching one of her dreamy awe-struck glances when Rossi looked at his bride or someone held a romantic speech sends chills down his spine. Always earning one of her sweet smiles when their eyes met.
So, it was pretty obvious why he was having a great time even though he normally dreaded these kinds of social events.
But standing here, waiting for the bartender to fix him up with a drink whilst hearing somebody talk like that about y/n shot an arrow straight to his heart and made his stomach turn.
Talk he couldn't, in a million years, connect in his mind to y/n. No matter how desperately his infatuation with her - he found it a sin to degrade the depth of her beautiful personality and grace in such a vulgar way. Stereotypical macho assholes.
He couldn’t help but further overhear the conversation between the two men also working for the bureau, ignorantly sipping on their drinks just a few feet away from him.
"To be straightforward here, I've had my eye on her for quite some time now..", Andersson confessed to the other guy. "Ain't easy to enjoy that precious view all week without doing anything about it, I can tell you that!
"Well, then how come you haven't put your charms to work already, dumbass?
"Oh, believe me, I tried.. but that one is a tough nut to crack."
Spencer's jaw clenched automatically at their choice of words. He balled his sweaty fists next to his body.
"Is that so? The dark-haired man let out a low whistle. “Well, she sure doesn't look like that.. or dresses that way!" He purposely emphasized the last part of his sentence. Again, their ringing laughter echoed in Spencer’s ears like a siren.
“But considering you’ve already swayed her once on the dancefloor today, it sure shouldn’t be too much of a challenge to finally claim your prize tonight, don’t you think? After all, you know what they say about chicks at weddings.” The stranger nudged Andersson in his side while almost spilling his drink on him. “Especially if they're single, I mean.. she is single, right?” Andersson let out a long breath, “Well.. no one really knows, actually. She’s not exactly open about things like that. But considering the long hours she often stays behind in the bullpen, I just always figured she was.”
As he was just about to react to his theory, Andersson’s friend spotted Spencer at the bar.
“Doesn’t Daddy Longlegs here also work in her unit?”, clearly the unfamiliar hunk was already too drunk or just too ignorant to realize that he was talking more than loud enough for Spencer to hear him. “Let’s see what he knows.”
Timed perfectly, Spencer was just being served his dry martini - now he really thanked himself for choosing something this strong - as Andersson addressed him hesitantly,
"Um, hey, Reid. I was wondering.. If maybe you know something about y/n's dating life. You know, given the fact you work together pretty close.. is she, uhm.. available?"
Already in the midst of turning on his heel, he felt especially triggered by his choice of words and eventually couldn't help but address this.
"Well, first off all, Andersson, y/n is a person, she is not available like a stapler lying around, unoccupied. And second, if you're so interested in that matter, why don't you gather up the courage and ask her yourself? After all, you seem to be confident enough to inappropriately talk about her behind your back.
So if you'd excuse me."
He didn't even wait for either of them to react. Having his mind already made up about what he needed to do now, he quickly scanned the room for y/n.
And there she was, as radiant as ever. She sat at the BAU's table alone after just seemingly having declined Garcia's offer of hitting the bar for a refill.
Spencer's instinct of protecting her from what he just heard immediately set in. No matter how old-fashioned and stereotypical it might be - he knew she could handle herself very well on her own. But he couldn't help it. Be it the alcohol in his veins or simply his infatuation with her.
"Hey Spence!" her voice chirped, a little hoarse from the glass of sparkling champagne in her hand. The corners of her mouth curled up into a lovely smile upon seeing him approaching her.
But he wasn't smiling. His eyes hid the weight of a thousand worries, all stirred up by the conversation he had just overheard. Worries of her being taken advantage of by some douchey colleague whose only goal is to get into her pants, and probably even worse than that: the egotistic fear of her actually enjoying that kind of attention. Because if the latter was the case, he'd lose her right before his eyes. Losing her.. how would that even be possible? Considering his constant lack of acting when it came to y/n, he knew he had not the slightest right to feel possessive about her.
Her smile was slowly fading as her eyes widened in an expression of surprise or worry, mirroring Spencer's own.
"Would you consider- I-I mean.. do you wanna dance?" he blurted out, just when she was about to ask him what was wrong.
This certainly brought back the smile on her face while leaving her a little flustered at the same time.
"Oh.. Why, yeah, sure!", she resisted looking behind her to rule out the possibility of someone (Morgan) setting him up to that move.
As she noticed his hesitant glance at her hand y/n wanted to take the pressure from him. "You know, we can just dance like this", she reassured him as she placed her hands on his shoulders carefully, trying to read from the look on his face if he was comfortable with it. "Avoid the dangerous hand bacteria, right?". A proud smirk adorned her features. He smiled down at her.
Right. Of course, y/n had not the slightest clue that his only reason for hesitation was self-protection. Not from the potential bacteria on the palm of her hands though. When it comes to her, he has parted with his principles quite a while ago and grown more than fond of the idea of physical contact. A subject his daydreams not seldom evolved around.
His concern was much rather to protect himself from the effect her hands in his might have on his very being, let alone his concentration.
As if reading his mind and wanting to free him from his concerns all the same, y/n reacted instinctively to the next song which really slowed down the pace.
Carefully, she wrapped her arms around his neck. "Is this okay?", she asked shyly as he noticed a slight flush on her cheeks, only adding to her loveliness. Must be the champagne, he thought. ��Of course”, he muttered barely audible, his throat dry and his body practically burning with love and desire for the girl in front of him. The woman of his dreams and probably his best friend in the world.
"By the way", Spencer suddenly felt the need to clear his throat, "you look beautiful tonight." Again that lovely pink hue on her cheeks. "I mean, not that you wouldn't always look nice. It's just.. that dress really suits you."
"Thank you, Spencer" y/n responded immediately, reassuring him she got the compliment. Being used to her mostly calling him Spence, his full name on her lips caused his stomach to flip with adoration.
God, how he wanted to kiss her right now.
"You know, that's actually really sweet of you", y/n suddenly ripped him from his thoughts.
"What?", he was frowning his brow in bewilderment. Surely, she couldn’t have read him like that.
"Well, the Spencer Reid I've gotten to know and like wouldn’t exactly count dancing to his favorite activities.. and considering people’s excessive interest in your engagement in this activity, I sure do understand why."
Only now that y/n lead his attention back to the room he noticed how some of their team members were meticulously observing the two of them. Garcia cheered them on excitedly, almost spilling her glass of gin and tonic while Morgan steadied her in his grip, giving Spencer an impressed nod.
A small giggle escaped y/n's throat as she faced the floor for a split second, eyes darting up to meet Spencer's again. She shrugged, "Thanks for doing it anyways."
"Nothing to thank me for, y/n." Her name slipped from his tongue like butter. It always had.
“It’s my honor.. I-I mean, today’s so special, I wouldn’t have missed spending time with my favorite person for the world.” Spencer felt particularly bold this very moment with her hands wrapped around his neck.
“She beamed up at him, looking for words to say. But instead, her face froze as something or someone behind them caught her attention. Negatively.
“Did-did I say something wrong? I didn’t mean to-“, “No! Spence.. I’m glad I’m here with you too.. it’s just, I was especially relieved about your dancing enthusiasm today since it’s pretty sure saving me from some hungry predators waiting for the right moment to attack”, her eyeballs slightly rolled back at her comment.
Even though he knew exactly who she was referring to with her metaphor, he carefully adjusted their position to confirm his suspicion.
The two men, too, were observing them but were apparently oblivious to the amount of chemistry existing between y/n and Spencer. The unfamiliar guy was clearly instructing Andersson as to how strategically proceed in getting y/n to dance with him as soon as she and Spencer parted ways.
"Yeah, I-I've noticed. Is there anything I can do? Should I tell them to leave you alone?"
Y/n smiled at him gratefully, "Oh no, Thanks that's really not necessary." Her mind, however, seemed to completely trail off. Her eyes fixed on the small back door close to them.
"Well, actually, since you're asking already.. there might be one thing you could do for me." An almost childlike excitement stole onto her face.
"But you need to follow me, right away, alright? Do you trust me Spence?"
Okay, so now he really had no clue as to what she was up to, and even though he was a little nervous about her sudden change in demeanor, he still couldn’t help but feel intrigued by the mischievous look in her eyes.
Instead of answering verbally, Spencer decidedly took her hand into his and lightly nodded his head without ever breaking eye contact. “I’m right behind you.”
And all of a sudden, they took off. Y/n’s heels clicked loudly on the floor as they hurried their way toward the back door in long strides.
“Well, buddy, so much about your ambitions”, the dark-haired man patted Andersson on the back on the other side of the ballroom and downed the rest of his long drink.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What are these to goofballs up to? find out!

I think a lot of people overlook that Izzy's actually a fairly meh okay person when he doesn't feel threatened. He's calm and open about his feelings with Jackie to a sort of embarrassing point lol. He's surprisingly chill during the initial Stede interaction and MOST importantly in my opinion, he's openly soft with Edward. I see a lot of fanfic that characterizes Iz has having this hyper masculine image of Blackbeard in his head and when Ed fails to meet that standard he's violent and cruel. And that's true in the last episode when Izzy is at the end of his fucking rope and is making the worse possible choices out of desperation but before that,,, its really not that bad??
There's clearly a disconnect between the two of them that's bothering Ed("you have no imagination" ect) but Izzy still shows a lot of softness towards Ed. Its mostly in his body language and exasperated housewife voice but Izzy is showing that he's okay with Ed being soft and being soft to Ed back but only in private. And this isn't to say Iz doesn't absolutely have his own toxic masculinity issues but I think these issues come more from fear then Izzy genuinely thinking being nice and having friends is bad. Something also important to remember is that Izzy knows what is probably Ed's most emasculating secret: the fact that he doesn't fucking kill people. Its not overly clear if Izzy knows the why of it but either way he respects it and actively protects Ed and takes on the burden for him because he knows that it on some level will hurt him to try to push him into it. When Iz betrays Ed he keeps saying "its humane" "its fast and clean and over" like he's trying to ease Ed's conscience and make it emotionally easier.
Izzy also isn't initially bothered by Ed playing dress up until he realizes Stede is also there. So Izzy is mostly okay with Ed wearing stupid fancy boy clothes and being a dramatic weirdo across the boat because Edward is erratic and probably has already done this before. And even though its a delete scene and I will forever hate David for this, Iz did help Ed get dressed up for the party.
I think Iz' behavior is just normal ass romcom other woman jealousy and having deeply internalized trauma and fear towards being seen as less masculine by society. Maybe I'm just having too much empathy for everything all the time again but Izzy's problem is so clearly that he knows if he's vulnerable and soft then he'll get fucking destroyed by the cishet toxic world we all live in. He's posturing all of the fucking time as a form of self defense and he tries to force Ed to use Blackbeard in the same way because he wants Ed to be safe and hidden from the people who absolutely are out there and want to hurt them. Trauma tends to fuck with you're perception of reality so we as a audience watch and go "But Fang and Ivan are cool!! They wouldn't bully Izzy for being soft" (despite the fact that the do in fact bully him in canon) but for Izzy, he's just in panic survival mode all of the time and can't easily relax and just casually trust a bunch of strangers in the way Stede (and by extension Ed) can
My point is Izzy deserves love and the space for growth just like Ed did and if you think otherwise then ur ugly and I don't like u.
also if Izzy doesn't get a redemption arc I will fully end up hating this show and i really deeply mean that im not fucking being hyperbolic lol

Hey Amy💓, I've been wondering about this lately... i love how we all have this community on tumblr where we enjoy the idea of top!/dom!/alpha!reader - especially as female or gender neutral reader. But sometimes I feel disheartened that we'll ever get to really have relationships like that in the real world - ya know conventional gender roles and all... do you have any thoughts on this🥺? Has anyone of the other followers or yourself been successful "in the real world"?
Hey <3
(I'm happy for any of my followers to chime in with their own experiences in my inbox, I'll post them :D)
THIS IS ALL MY OWN OPINION/EXPERIENCE, THANK YOU
I know a lot of people who prefer role reversal relationships feel anxious about finding a partner that wants the same, I remember that being brought up in the role reversal subreddit a lot, back when I still used the site.
My experiences with role reversal in real life have actually been very positive, I'm pleased to report!
I'll never forget my first proper boyfriend that I dated when I was 15-16, I think he was 17. We were discussing films, at the time I was big into horror films and hated romcoms, he loved rom coms and hated horror. I suggested we compromise with an action film or even a non-comedy romance, but he was weirdly insistent that we should watch a horror film and that I could introduce him to the genre properly. I agreed, letting him choose the horror movie so he could pick a chiller one if he wanted, and a week later, we were getting ready to watch one on his bed.
He did not pick a chill one, to my confusion. He picked a pretty intense one, although I can't remember which one now. At the first jump scare, he flinched and grabbed my arm before tucking his face into my neck to avoid looking at the screen. At the next scares, he shuffled closer until he was pretty much on my lap. Of course, as you're probably realising, I was played XD He was so insistent about watching a horror because he wanted an excuse for cuddling and for me to protect him and dote on him lol. He was very cute.
I don't really have any sexual experience, so I'll leave that part of role reversal for someone else to chime in on. Although, anecdotally, I will say that there are many men who lean submissive but aren't comfortable saying that in public.
Try to remember that a lot of men are touch starved and starved for positive affection (toxic masculinity hurts them a lot in this regard). They likely won't think to ask you to do things like stroke their hair, but if you do it, they'll hopefully respond positively and it can set the tone for the relationship. Insist on not following gender roles in a relationship, no one can make you. Be confident in what you want. Communicate, communicate, communicate.
Most people want to be spoilt and doted on, men included, they just aren't used to it.
I know some people find it hard to even find men that are just nice people and willing to be equal partners, let alone try to find someone who fits your lifestyle preference, but it is definitely possible, believe me. Where you live and who you are will impact how easy it will be to find these men too, but it's never impossible, I promise <3
Anyone else with any anecdotes, positive or negative, is welcome to chime in or ask some questions if they'd like to :D

Tumblr media
(Hello I really hope you enjoy this, have a nice day/night!)
I match you with:
Tumblr media
Itadori Yuji
- Due to his kind personality you’ll warm up to him quickly. When he realizes that you’re being shy he makes sure to not overwhelm you when you get to know him.
- He was shocked the first time you were verbally aggressive to someone but the shock didn’t last for long. He thinks it’s admirable to stand up for yourself.
- Sets up a contest for you, him, Megumi, and Nobara on who can eat the most spiciest food in a certain amount of time. You would probably win but Itadori would be in second place.
- You guys often binge watch animes or play games together.
- He thinks it’s really cool that you are a vocaloid producer and that you know so many languages, (y’all sometimes listen to your music while hanging out)
- He really likes to listen to you talk about all of your interests. He’s a good listener and remembers majority of what you say.
- Whenever it snows outside you guys will have intense snow fights. He’s really fast so good luck on winning.
- After he’s exhausted from all the training, the water bottles you bring are helpful to cool him off.
- When you are upset he’ll gift you some of your favorite things/drinks and try to cook/bake your favorite treats.
- He asks you to take a picture of you and him so that he can print it out and put it on his wall (or desk if he even has one)
- He loves your collections and art. He would want to try pottery out and try to make something.
Tumblr media
Denki Kaminari
- He can be a bit loud sometimes and if you’re overwhelmed at first when meeting him he’ll tone it down a bit until you get warmed up to him.
- He admires your independence and hopes to be as independent as you.
- If someone provokes you and you’re being verbally aggressive to the person he would be on the sidelines hyping you up.
- If he reads a Manga that you also read and he doesn’t understand some of the storyline or anything he’ll go to you and see if you know about it.
- When he was first learning guitar, he goes to you for some tips.
- He introduces you to a lot of his friends (like Bakugou, Kirishima, Mina, Jiro, Sero, etc) he thinks y’all will get along really well.
- You guys are like a comedic duo in the classroom. Sometimes you guys pull pranks on some of your friends. One time he asked you to teach him some insults in some of the languages you know and y’all were making fun of Bakugou in front of his face while laughing y’all asses off.
- Whenever you’re upset and/or crying he tries to cheer you up the best he can by making you laugh.
- Teaches you the newest slang and phrases.
- You guys sometimes bake together during the holidays and it becomes a mess because he decides to stick his finger into the batter and put it on your face, causing a war.

We know your thoughts on Blue and King Orange, how about the other stick figures? (Just the Color Gang if you're not bothered)
thoughts on the color gang? oh do i HAVE SOME
i'll just be talking about red, green, and yellow here, though. not that i don't have thoughts on orange/second (i very much do), it just ties in a lot with my chosen/dark thoughts and that's something i'll discuss in another post probably lol
so first, red. i like him a lot!! i think he or yellow would be my favorite if it wasn't for blue. i've mentioned this before, but back when i was first watching avm/ava i thought red was going to be an aggressive, cynical, kinda toxic masculine sort of character since a lot of the stuff i'd seen with red before the series was mainly him fighting. but nope! he's pretty much just a more assertive fluttershy that can also kick my ass and i love it. i think it's nice to see a character that's pretty strong and canonically works out having "non-masculine" interests (aka caring for animals). it's something i don't see too often in media, and i like seeing it.
green. green's chill. he's not a character that i'd consider my favorite, but i think he's cool! he's good at a lot of things, kind of a jack-of-all-trades sorta deal. i don't know if we'll get to see purple again in the main AvM series now that s3 is over, but if we do i think they should have some sort of buddy-movie-esque episode with green! i think their friendship should be expanded on a little more.
finally, yellow. yellow, m'darling. i love her a lot. i like how she's super intelligent and the smartest of the cg, but she has her moments where she doesn't really think things through, like in the roller coaster and command block episodes (though in yellow's defense in the former, i don't think that the sticks knew how minecraft physics worked at the time). and their intelligence doesn't mean their entire personality is them being smart, either- they're shown to care deeply for their friends (especially their "best friend" blue(i know what you are /silly)), and they still like getting into shenanigans, like in the wallpaper actual short. like i said with red, she'd probably be my favorite if it weren't for blue, lmao.

dude I'm crying on my knees begging for more Murray content... I'm so soft (and horny) for him it's insane. Honestly want to pumper him like he's my little housewife
ok but the housewife thing is a jam, ngl; even if i don't see it as completely my vibe for him, i'mma give it a shot bc it's cute-
domestic!murray bauman + housewifey shit✨
Tumblr media
🧡imagine just helping him with shit. you could do it, but the dynamic just keens to murray being a lil' wifey, like it's not even up for discussion, yk?
🧡he's the chef ofc, so you can expect some hearty, flavorful meals when you come back home; bringing in the funds for him to experiment with cooking and baking;
🧡he's lowkey a puppy when he asks you to taste test his food too - like to make it the best he'll get a pretty wooden carved spoon as opposed to a metal one; he'll scoop it up and blow on it for u bc nobody's getting mouth burns from murray's famed risotto, like-
🧡he'll look at you with these big hopeful eyes, awaiting your response. and if u don't respond with an 'mmmm!', then he's def gonna pout abt it. "but whyyyy don't you like it???" with a little huff of inward frustration
🧡and he's ofc gonna remember ur fave meals, and what you like more; he's adding some spice if u like it.
🧡if he knows ur a sweet treat kinda partner, he's making sure to time the baking cookies for when you come back home - greeting u with a hug and donning his fave pair of yellow flower oven-mitts.
🧡likewise, in this universe he's the one who's keeping things ticking over domestically; he's replacing the flowers on the counter every couple days,
🧡or he's plumping up the cushions when you stop mid-movie to get a second serving of dessert, he's dusting down surfaces with the classic maid's feather duster, etc etc
🧡although dw because he loves it. like, he's not doing it bc he feels obligated to at all
🧡he lived in a pretty lowkey and messy house before you turned up, so now you're here, he's finally got a reason to spruce up the place, give it a lil domestic ✨sparkle✨, if u will;
🧡he loves the idea of having time to explore his own investigative work, but also to turn up the 50s-style housewife vibe when he's not in work-mode.
🧡like, he's def the kinda person who just loves whoosh-ing open the curtains in the morning, one hand on each side, and just taking in the morning sunlight. like, it's an instant smile and cheery mood if it's a sunny morning for him i think <3
🧡i think he'd also love doing those kinds of things with u too though; making the bed is an excellent example of this tbh
🧡the idea of you both getting up, making the bed together, and like puffing up the pillows and getting the layers of the bed right -sheet, duvet, blanket, another blanket, cutesy flower quilt- would make him internally giddy bc he loves u and loves his lil world of peace and contentedness,
🧡and smth simple, but still a team-effort just reiterates that it's a safe area, and y'all are on the same page, which just helps make him feel v secure, yk?
🧡linking to this, i think he's a big fan of massages and cuddles, so u can bet you two are snuggling up on the couch or bed and just taking it in turns.
🧡he loves cuddling u, bc he feels needed and, like he's holding down the fort at home while u go out and bring home the bacon;
🧡but he's also a big little spoon fan, and esp nuzzling up into ur chest, bc he feels like he can really chill and get all nice n sleepy and not have to worry at all;
🧡it's like a rlly easy way to show him how much u appreciate the effort he puts into making ur place all cozy and homely, really
🧡and the role of you buying the necessary items and giving him the space at home to just potter around, fix things up, keep things cutesy and safe-heaveny,
🧡and u loving that he's the kinda guy to lowkey shun the social/toxic masculinity rules and indulge in the domestic vibe is just so his jam, ngl
🧡ultimately, i think by knowing there's a stable form of support and resources (esp financially and through being the kinda partner who's happy to listen, encourage and validate him), he's then more than happy to put those resources to good work and make his once solo-conspiracy-theorist-house a two-partner hobbiton-hole kinda home, yk??
also pls keep requesting anons i love it, gimme ur ideas pls 🤭
some tags for y'all bc it's an almost-permanent murray bauman dry-season for content: @bruhlsbees @lola--ebola @knownasbeacon @murraystan @murdockmartens @spicedchaiandromeda

WHOO FIGURING IT OUT WAS WILD.
xe was veryyy confused about their gender for a long time, and it initially was just experimental. what if he was a girl? what if she was a guy? what if xe was neither?
but eventually, he did his own research and learned what worked.
but coming out was... harder.
IMPORTANT TO NOTE THIS IS BEFORE MICHAEL CAME OUT (or even was sure about his own gender/sexuality.) i do think he had internalized transphobia (that comes with the toxic masculinity of having william of all people for a father (despite william not caring about gender identities much, he held his own sons to a different standard i think, which lead to, of course, internalized transphobia.)
with that out of the way, yes. it was big and scary to evan. it was terrifying even. what was it supposed to say? "hey i dont wanna be a guy anymore."?
he came out first to cassidy and gregory together. which is funnily enough where he discovered gregory was transmasc and suddenly everything made sense (cassidy later figures out shes not cis too ofc)
they talked him through it, and assured him he didnt HAVE to come out to the rest of his family. xe owed them nothing. but to it, this was a step forward in being its own person. she wasnt going to let that chance go.
honestly, it was big and scary and horrifying for evan, but elizabeth was chill, if not a bit confused by the concept.
william did not gaf. he fucking knew his kids were gay. and his lack of care counted as a loss for evan tbh 😭 he got all ready to come out and got hit with the "yeah i know now stop fucking crying over robots bruh"
michael was a different story. first, he was confused, then he was a little,,, hesitant to accept it. this was weird and new, but he was way too old by this point to be harassing evan about something like that. it just ended in an awkward "isnt that whole thing weird/made up/fake/stupid/ect?" that left both of them uncomfortable.
if we follow smth like second best and shitty brother, he'd end up apologizing for that behavior, especially since he himself would probably figure out what that was like.
that was a lot lol, xe just means a lot to me <333

🍊「  my rp ad !!」🍊
︶꒦꒷ warning !! ꒷꒦︶ due to tumblr banning accounts that share links too much, i will not link you my ad when i ask you if you're interested in writing, i will simply tell you what emojis i used ( oranges !! ) and what blog you liked it on !! i just got this account fixed, trying to keep it that way.
🍊 「  about me !! 」 🍊 . . . ⇢ 25+ years old, 21+ partners preferred for smut themed things . . . ⇢ don't mind somewhere between rapid fire replies, or once every few days replies. super chill vibes. . . . ⇢ probably talk ooc quite a bit too between writing and replies. i like making friends with people i write with !! . . . ⇢ i write most of my characters as trans, be okay with that, or don't like this. . . . ⇢ i use irl fc's, you don't have to.
do you like:
closeted hockey players ??
m x m or nb characters !!
discord server writing !!
smut/nsfw are welcomed !!
themes may include: drug use, alcohol use, dubcon, toxic relationships, closeted relationships, internalized homophobia, toxic masculinity.
then i'm the person for you !!
m/c comes from a very closeted society, and came out to themselves a while ago, but leaves to go to college outside of where he was born so he can express himself. ends up joining a frat and they're all pretty nice, but he's not sure how they're all gonna take it. and so your character can be a few things: y/c is a little in the closet too, maybe they harass m/c, maybe their friendship is toxic, turns into a toxic relationship, maybe a closeted unhealthy relationship. unhealthy forcing themselves on the other when they confess, being ashamed but doing it anyway ?? y/c can be his frat mate, someone that kind of spends a lot of time around him and was apart of their hazing ( which is pretty tame, ) and they get along. maybe they get a crush on m/c and try slowly coming onto him at parties. y/c is on m/c's hockey team, and m/c isn't the best at it at first, and wonders why m/c is on the team. they argue quite a bit before each of them realize they like the other. m/c is very in the closet and avoids y/c a lot until it bubbles over and gets really tense. maybe a drunk confession, maybe a angry fight confession ?? i'm also TOTALLY okay with any other ideas you have other than that, for how they could know each other, or who y/c can be, premade oc's are totally okay !!
let me know if you're interested, and again, i'll tell you my emojis and ab the plot briefly, not link the post, to avoid getting a ban !!
like if you're interested and op will get back to you!

Tbh I don't feel the captain Hands hc, like not yet I guess. Izzy's is great at managing the ship, caring for the crew, but we didn't really see any leadership from him. It's not a bad thing, not everyone wants or are good at leading people. I guess he's as capitany as Olu: loved by the crew, yes, but I don't think any of them has any other goal than just chilling and not die. They're great at supporting and making things work, but they don't have much of a vision or direction.
I guess in s1e1 Stede must have looked rather directionless in his crew's eyes (they don't know his goal is therapy lol) and that just made them want to mutiny (and toxic masculinity I guess). Ed wasn't a good captain to his crew, but he sure had direction (whatever caught his attention this moment). Same in s2: clear goal, bad people management.
Izzy could be a captain, probably kinda was after Ed "died", not sure how much there was to decide on a steerless ship, but he's like a bodyguard. He makes sure you will be safe, but he doesn't make bigger plans. He wants to follow someone he admires and support him, and he's great at it. I'm not saying it has to be Ed or Stede. It could be Zheng or Jackie, whatever. He makes the leader shine.
Maybe if they let him bond with the crew more (without any leader figure around), heal from his self worth problems, he could actually believed he matters to them so much to be their captain. It would be a beautiful cyharacter journey tbh, but for now it would be way too soon.
Also, Ed shouldn't be called captain after s2e3, what the hell Frenchie????
