AITA for "forcing" my best friend to break up with his boyfriend?

🧸

I (22 cis m) and my best friend 'A' (21 ftm) have been friends since we were 10 years old and I love him more than anything. He’s genuinely the sweetest, most thoughtful, and funniest person I’ve ever met. He means everything to me and we’ve been there for each other through the hardest times of our lives so far and I plan on staying until the end.

It’s always been us two. Btw, everyone mentioned here uses he/him pronouns exclusively.

A has been with his boyfriend (21 cis m) for about 2 years now, and from what he told me, things were going great. Even if I’m not too fond of his boyfriend. A few days ago, we got pretty drunk at a friend’s housewarming party. A and I live together, and as soon as we got home, he suddenly started rambling about how he wishes his boyfriend cared about him the same way I do.

Legit felt like I was in some dumb romance movie for a moment there. I felt a little uneasy and asked him to elaborate. In short, his boyfriend essentially treats him like a doll instead of a person with real emotions. He feels as though his boyfriend just uses him to get his daily fix of physical affection and sex, that’s it. The only positive thing his boyfriend can say about A is that he’s cute, which boggles my mind. It’s true but there’s so much more to him as a human being.

A is an incredibly talented artist, super kind, super emotionally intelligent, and has a plethora of interests he loves to infodump about. I’m trying my hardest not to make this entire post about how amazing he is. He’s helped multiple friends clean their depression apartments and took them out to get fresh groceries etc. because it’s basic decency to him. He has such a big heart and holds so much love in it for everyone in his life. Being around him is just so easy and makes life worth living.

He’s just an incredible person all around and every single person that has him in their life recognizes that, except his boyfriend. They’ve had issues in the past because they’re not sexually compatible, which led to some miscommunication and made A feel like he was coerced into things he didn’t want to do. He just did them to make his boyfriend happy. He does a lot of things for his boyfriend, actually. He’s constantly buying little gifts, remembering what he likes, and plans cute dates for them to go on. His boyfriend does none of these things.

I want to mention that A has bpd and avpd. He has an intense fear of rejection and will do everything in his power to appease others so they won’t leave him. I always take the time to reassure him that I love him for who he is and not what he can give me. Basically just making sure he feels loved. Keep in mind, his boyfriend is aware of this but he just gets annoyed when A seeks reassurance from him. His behavior has made my blood boil several times in the past already, but I always kept it to myself for A’s sake. If I was vocal about disliking his boyfriend, it probably would’ve caused A a lot of distress and emotional turmoil.

Still, I don’t think this relationship is healthy for A and I know him well enough to know he won’t break it off on his own. It’s just his combo of personality disorders that makes it impossible for him. I told him about my concerns and he agreed, but said he feels bad for his boyfriend since he apparently doesn’t have any friends outside of A. From my POV, it just looks like his boyfriend knows A is out of his league and is grasping at straws to make A stay with him out of pity.

This is where I might be the asshole. I got a little frustrated and raised my voice, which I severely regret. I don’t want to blame it on the alcohol but it definitely had a hand in it. I finally told him about all these grievances I have about his boyfriend, how much I dislike him and how A deserves so much better, etc.. At one point, I essentially gave him an ultimatum. It’s me or his boyfriend. I didn’t really mean it, it was just a heat of the moment thing I spat out. I would never leave him like that.

A started crying and begged me to calm down, at which point I realized how shitty I was being and immediately began apologizing. We hugged, I comforted him, and we spent the rest of the night cuddling and talking about how he could approach the breakup.

Now that I’ve sobered up I feel like absolute shit. I know it’s not my place to tell A what to do with his romantic relationships, even if I’m his best friend. Plus, I want to be 100% honest here and say I might have romantic feelings for A. I think I have for a long time, but I always wrote it off as intense platonic love. So I may be biased in this whole conversation about his boyfriend.

I didn’t say these things because of that. I genuinely think his boyfriend is a huge dick and full of shit, no matter how sweet and loving he pretends to be. It’s all in the way he treats A. He’s one of those guys that paint their nails (nothing wrong with that but you know the kind of guy I’m talking about), pretend to be feminists, and steal their romantic partner’s personality to seem cooler. He even asked A to stop taking testosterone because he didn’t like how hairy A was getting or some shit like that.

He’s pansexual but has only ever dated girls and started dating A before A began medically transitioning. There’s obviously nothing wrong with that and changes nothing about the fact that he’s pansexual, he just pisses me off when he criticizes A for being 'too masculine'. You can have a preference for feminine people but don’t make that shit your partner’s problem when they just want to pass.

I feel like A’s boyfriend just thought A would always stay the smooth, baby-faced twink he was before going on testosterone and now makes him feel guilty for looking like a grown man. Some people don’t know how to appreciate hairy tummies.

Sorry for making this so long but I just want to be as honest and informative as possible to get proper opinions on the issue. A is now dead set on breaking things off because he now knows that I actively despise his boyfriend and he always puts my opinion above everyone else’s.

Was I in the wrong for doing this or am I just protecting my best friend? I’m glad he intends on ending things but I feel a bit like a conniving snake considering everything. It feels like I’m taking advantage of his mental state even if I’m not doing it consciously.

This Week in BL - The Sign is Slaying

Organized, in each category, with ones I'm enjoying most at the top. Happy new year, BLabies!

Jan 2024 Wk 2

Ongoing Series - Thai

The Sign (Sat YT) ep 8 of 12 - Tharn in Phaya’s too big clothing is the cutest thing in the world.

I gotta to say something about Babe's acting really quickly. I love the way he’s inhabiting the personality of his naga character with reptilian eye and body movements and (I don’t know how to put this) a certain reserved, elegant, slithering- ness. He's very good this new boy of ours. (He come from something physical like dance?)

I adored them doing the walk of shame and being teased.

ALSO I enjoyed the way they handled Tharn’s gender in the past with his costume (the pha chung hang is gender neutral but that green top is a kinda combo m+f) and pronouns et al.

Language corner:

They are using ancient pronouns. I *think* I heard: daow (3rd), khun/jao/tan (2nd), kaa (Ist) - all pronouns in use are gender neutral - to the best of my understanding.

Last Twilight (Fri YT) ep 10 of 12 - Ooo. Day comes out to fam. Also his maa legit took his phone away and said

“I don’t mind you being gay but you can’t date a poor.”

Still, these 2 do kind of make the best secret boyfriends ever.

Also I begin to love Night: “that’s my baby” indeed. You special ain’t ya?

For Him (Thurs iQIYI) ep 7 of 12 -  I’m starting to find this pretty boring at this juncture. Bummer, because for a while I was enjoying it.

Twins the series (Fri GaGa) ep 11 of 12 - The stuff with the spy on the team is super boring. I’m not wild about the side characters either. So most of this episode was a bust for me. I did like First’s ex. 

Pit Babe (Fri iQIYI) ep 9 of 14 - Charlie & Babe = honeymoon phase. Jeff & Kim = forgotten. Pete & Way = riddles wrapped in alphas but actually enigmas. Everyone else = gang bang phase…. Apparently. Trash watch happening here.

Cooking Crush (Sun YT) ep 6 of 12 - Loved that this was a mutual kiss. (Also how comfortable are OffGunn kissing now? Babies!) I’ve moved from indifference to absolute loathing of the side couple tho.

Oddball LIES from the script = the gayest bridge in Bangkok isn’t lit up after 9pm.

Meanwhile, very important kicky kicky feet and Doc is a dork about flirting now that he’s all in. Looks like we get the official boyfriend ep next week.  

You and My Stars YT 2of 2(?) - Couldn’t find it. Not fussed. 

Time the series (Thai Gaga) ep 1 of 10 - Okay so there’s a gang and someone named Chris is killed and his boyfriend, actor Foam, is jumped back in time to save him? NO SINGING. Between Chris’s death and that time-slip there’s some kind of accidental murder, a pink pocket watch, Chris being alive again but also a different person, and a make out scene. Are you also confused? Actually, the real question is: Do we continue watching? Remember we (the collective BLorg) do not trust MFlow. 

My Universe (Sun iQIYI) ep 21 of 24 - The acting has been pretty terrible all along with this series, but this one is the worst. I just can’t. I may tune in for the last installment but this one is a DNF for me. 

Ongoing Series - Not Thai

Although I Love You and You AKA Sukiyanen Kedo Do Yaro ka (Japan Gaga) ep 1 of 10 - It’s utterly adorable. Very manga, but so far not grating on my nerves. They so cute! You know I adore a hyung romance. Add a v gay sauna scene and an OUT gay boy and just... YES. All the married breeder regulars being overly invested in their pretty cook’s queer drama queening, it's so good.

AND THEN a confession in the first episode? Japan sure loves to mess with the pacing of plots drops.

Also, how much do I want to eat every single piece  of food in this darn show? 

Sahara-sensei to Toki-kun (Japan Fri Gaga) ep 5 of 8 - Man I wish this were better I enjoyed this more. Sigh. I do LOVE the stepbrother sides. Of course I do. But how can this feature 2 of my favorite relationship types (age gap, stepbrothers) and not be my favorite BL airing? Japan, how do you ALWAYS do this to me? 

VIP Only (Taiwan Fri Gaga) ep 9 of 10 - I don’t know. I just wish this were better. Also shorter.

I really miss KBL right now.

It's done I Need to Catch up

What Did You Eat Yesterday Season 2 AKA Kinou Nani Tabeta? Season 2 (Japan Gaga) 10 eps - will binge when I have a spare day.

The Servant and the Young Master - from Veitnam so I assume it's on YouTube. I never even noticed. Anyone?

After Sundown - aired on Netflix Thailand. No word on inter release.

It's Airing But...

[INTERNATIONAL] Cherry Magic (Sat YouTube) ep 3 of 12 - yeah Japan put the smack down on our boys. Sadness. You can use a VPN if you like. Read all about it here.

Ossans Love Season 2 (Japan Gaga) - 5 years later, will anything have changed? This is Japan so… probubly not. I won't be watching this. I disliked Season one and actively hated the follow ups. No thank you.

Playboyy (Thurs Gaga) 14 eps - Dear Playboyy, it's not you, it’s me… I hate you. You’re about as deep (and as palatable) as a shot glass of cum. While I'm sure you’re someone’s kink, you're my weakest link. Goodbye. I DNFed this at ep 5. Frankly I'm impressed with myself for getting that far.

Night Dream (Sat YT) 6 eps - It’s a pain to track down and I really didn’t like the first episode so… DNF  

The Whisperer (Sun ????) 10 eps - Thai horror BL that ALSO involves cheating (what joy is mine). I don't think even the perfect single dimple can motivate me to watch. Word is... it's terrible.

7 Days Before Valentine (Weds WeTV) 10 eps - Giving me Luminous Solution vibes. I'm waiting to binge if safe.

Dead Friend Forever (Thai Sat iQIYI) - horror, meh, tell me if it's worth my time?

[happypotato48]

List of Thai BL dramas i've watched with short opinions about them i guess :P

Thai BLs that i finished:

A Boss and a Babe. It's cute for what it is, i loved the gaming friendships and i'm a sucker for forcebook. 7/10 need more unhinged energy from book.

A Tale of Thousand Stars/Our Skyy 2 : Bad Buddy x A Tale Of Thousand stars. this show reminds me a lot of early to mid 2000s lakorns. it's a beautiful by the book love story, i appreciated that a bl got to take a spin on this kind of quiet thai story. 8/10 loved it but still too vanilla for my taste.

Bake Me Please. Guide Kantapon is the cutest man alive and CAKES! that it, that all i have for this show. 6/10 it's a show that exist.

Be My Favorite. damn fluke gawin is so pretty what was this show about again? :P i'm kidding, i actually really liked this show. i watched it when i had zero knowledge about bl industry, i was oblivious about krist's controversy and i find krist acting to be charming and think kawee is very relatable as a cringe fail human myself. 8.5/10 this show made me want to collected weird thingies.

Cherry Magic (Thailand). oh boy this show. it's was everything to me also the only show so far that i've written extensively on this site. here is my personal feeling about this show. 9.5/10 would kill for taynew.

Cooking Crush. what! the fuc$! look look, i just learned that both offgun are older than me. when i first saw the show i thought they were some rookie actors with how young they looks. watching cute bl is gonna be the death of me. anywho this show is supercute don't have a lot of thought about it though. 7.5/10 cutting half a point cause of no samsee x metha.

Cutie Pie/Naughty Babe. what a fuckin legend of a series. all the characters have zero braincells and somehow all the rich pretty boys are engaged to each other and by arranged marriages nonetheless. wtf is this fanfic version of thailand and where can i get hit by a truck and get isekai to it. 7.5/10 still haven't watch Cutie Pie 2 U, i hope it get dumber.

Enchanté. this show is so dummmb it should've go full camp reverse harem yaoi nonsense but it didn't and ended up being kinda boring. 6.5/10. meh, i'm still a sucker for forcebook.

Last Twilight. UGHHH!! i'm still so mad. this show was going to be THE SHOW for me then ep 11-12 happened i legit mentally check out halfway through ep 12 and i basically blocked the ending from my mind. this show came out at the right place and the right time for me, the first 9 episodes helped me through a very tough time in my life. the story of two people helping each other finding their way out of the dark was very compelling to me. ughh. 5.5/10 (9/10 for ep 1-9) P'Aof why are you like this!!

Laws Of Attraction. yassssssss this show slay(literally :P) the show is a breath of fresh air for me despite how very lakorn of it is. i'm glad that there is a bl that feel this soapy and campy cause like i do love my angsty and innocent school bls but the industry really need show like laws of attraction. jamfilm also were very great in their roles espically film, charn is the most babygirl corrupted cute evil lawyer of all time. 9/10 no note headempty only charn's evil smirks in my mind

La Pluie. now, this is a romance. this show is one of the most romanctic media that i personally have experience. i loved that the show took the cheesy premise of soulmates and work it so well to do both deconstruction and exploration of the trope. i think using rain, thing that isolated people as a narrative tool for love connection is absolutely brilliant. last but not least pat is just the perfect bl love interest, he's an very idealized character but he do feels like an actual person. i want to give a shout out to Pee Peerawich the way he said "มันหนาวอ่ะ" in ep 8 sent me, the raspy voice, the eye twich and combo those with a back cuddle, sir! you just commited a mass murders with that move. 9/10 plz i need season two with my baby boy tien.

Love in Translation. the unhingendness of that first meeting is probably my favorite bl meet cute. look if you don't get into a fistfight with the guy you destined to be with then what is the point of life. this show fake date is very well done it's doesn't feel forced like in a lot of other bls and it make the growing attraction feels very genuine and it pay off in one of the best sex scenes in all of bl, yang is such a freak and i loved him for it. 8/10 the last two episodes did got slightly off the rail for me but i still enjoyed the show.

Moonlight Chicken. one of the most beautiful shows i ever watched. when watching this show i can feels, smells and tastes everything it depicted. from the comfort khao man gai to jim's loneliness, from alan's heartbreak to liming and heart's midnight motorcycle ride. this show gave me all the feels and i still can't completely shake it off. 9.9/10 this show is a healing.

My School President. These boys!!!! i can't, i loved these boys so much, all the boys, YES ALL OF THEM! this show is on the opposite spectrum of Moonlight Chicken for me. while MC give me the good heartaches this show give me unbridled joy it's like heartstopper on cracks. i absolutely adored tinn and gun and the show relentless optimism about thier first love. love is awesome no matter the romantic, familial or platonic kind and i think this show hit the marks with all three. 10/10(i'm super bias but fuck it idc i even liked the singing) this show made me started watching thai bl and it always will have a place in my heart.

My Ride. this show is lacking in intimacy but making up by being all heart. could this show be better if they fleshed out and explore more of tawan and his cheating bf's relationship, maybe but i'm happy for what we got. 8/10 mork and tawan were very cutie patootie, i don't remember much about the het and the side couple were just st ok.

Step by Step. man trisanu is exactly the same height at me and i want everyone to know that is the only reason i started this show🤣 . i feels like this show have a lot to say about stuff but i kinda got lost staring at man trisanu while watching. one thing i really loved is the very fem *ตุ๊ด coworker who got to be a real character not just a jokey sidekick and having a loving relationship with a hottie. 7.5/10 can i get more man trisanu in bl plz.

Triage. asshole doctor stuck in a timeloop for him to find the meaning of life, yes plz give it to me. i loved stories about assholes who need to better themself for love and other junk. tinn and tol are both grumpy bitches and i just loved that the show use the timeloop to soften these nerds. at the end i just want to wrap them in blanket and let's them cuddle each other forever. 8.5/10 the last ep is bit convoluted but i forgave the show for that cute clocktower kiss.

You're My Sky. i started this show for my boy suar and he did not disappointed. the pining and the longing for an older boy who been there for you most you life, chef kiss. this show also very beautiful to look at. 8/10 i'm kinda meh about the side couples, i do think they all got the "good ending" for their stories.

Thai BLs that i didn't finish or gave up and skipped to the ending:

Bad Buddy. Oh boy, am i gonna get murder for this??? sorry but idk why i didn't wholeheartedly love and give this show my undivided attention. i watched this show very weird and out of order, i started with the last ep than just watch other episodes in bit and peice. i think i've seen 70% of this show. plz forgive me this is the first thai bl i tried to get into but can't. maybe i need to give this show another chance and watch it properly. or idk maybe cause the way i watched it, it's ruined for me forever. 6.5/10 i loved the rooftop kiss plz don't kill me.

Dangerous Romance. this show is trash and not the good kind, how this show depicted relationship between a rich asshole and a poor boy feels very gross to me. i fast forward a bunch and gave up after the not just dumb but very cruel breakup. 4/10 it's watchable if you ignore the plot and the chatacters.

Hidden Agenda. wow this is the most nothing show that ever nothing for me. it's a perfected white noise while playing chill video games. i stopped watching after ep 8 cause look like there going to be a dumb break up, i have no desire to revisit this show. 5/10 joongdunk were kinda cutes.

The Miracle of Teddy Bear. this show is too god damn long with too many side plots the one and a half hour per episode killed the momentum for me. i liked the show and do think i want to revisit and finish it one day. 6/10 for now.

Vice Versa. why are they giving jimmysea this show. this show is so boring for me, i gave up in episode 6. 4/10 gmmtv give my babies better shows!!

Thai BLs that i've watched all the sex scenes and have no intention of watching the actual show:

Kinnporsche: heheehehhehehe everyone were so hot, too bad i don't like rich mafia story. mile being a nepobaby also significantly killed the mood for me. 55555/dead bodyguards (idk how many there are but i don't care) the ost are bangers though.

Venus in the Sky and Love in the Air. cringe gay sex for the wins. 69/420.

ok, whoo that was a lot. gonna pin this cause i don't think anyone want to read all that in one sitting. i think i'm gonna make another post for non thai BLs in the near future. thanks for reading my unhinged opinions hope i'm not gonna get moider for it 55555555.

#thai bl #bl drama #bl meta #bl shows #dumb boy rambled #i think i got all of them #but idk maybe i'm missing one or two shows #i shouldn't written and posted this at 5 am after staying awake all night but fuck it

Kakashi’s Story- Chapter Four (because i am WEAK)

Margo choosing to fight because sue doesn’t want to leave Nanara is so sweet! Also a pot fir armor is just *chefs kiss* beautiful. Love these villagers.

Kakashi… KAKASHI WHY ARE YOU PUTTING YOUR HEADBAND OVER YOUR LEFT EYE!?

‘The release of the chakra to create a wall that huge would come with some serious shaking and a loud roar’ love that Kakashi’s skills keep getting highlighted in such interesting fun ways.

‘This was incredible chakra control’ i’m going to need every person who doubts Kakashi’s chakra control to write a 500 word apology letter right now 😂😂😂

‘A ninja with hair that was silver like a wolf’s shining in the moonlight and a gaze sleepy like a goat’ i just - these comparisons do not much up but i love it so damn much

‘Who’s winning’ said by the biggest shit of the world, taunting his enemy in his own little way before knocking them out

‘Nah, there’s no way it’s just one person. It’s gotta be a combo technique’ oh boy how wrong you are XD i just… i love that it’s clear Kakashi’s skill is so above average that people expect him to be multiple shinobi.

I love that Kakashi, a trained assassine, is just knocking his opponents out. The growth in his character arc is delicious.

I also love that we get some sweet Kakashi and Iruka content.

‘Distracted bu the memory of Iruka’s proud face’ i say this with all of my Kakagai loving heart… SIMP

My beautiful man did a screw up and now he has to fight properly, all because he was distracted thinking about Iruka XD

‘He looked sort of sleepy’ the fact that this is the first thing people thing of when they see Kakashi is so hilarious. Nothing else, just sleepy looking.

Hatake Kakashi, Sixth Hokage, kicking all of the ass with *drumroll* a pot lid

‘It had to be an amazing pot lid that used chakra. That had to be it’ legit grasping at straws because it makes no sense that one man is kicking all of this ass XD

Kakashi lost his pot lid and put his enemy into a genjutsu in mere seconds!? KING

‘Their average ability was on a special jonin level’ not only can he kick ass, but he can determine his enemies skill level so quickly And determine just how hard this fight will be, which is… not hard at all.

‘To Kakashi they were a group of small time punks’ you cocky shit i love you

I love that they keep convincing themselves that there is more than one attacker. They simply cannot fathom the fact that they’re getting wrecked by one man XD

Two! A pot lid and a pot have now been used as weapon’s and destroyed XD

‘His opponent was a monster on an entirely different level’ ya, a Hokage’s level XD

Kakashi catching a Shuriken, chucking it back and then knocking out an opponent he caught in a trap. He’s so friggen quick.

‘The intruder was faster than wind’ the comparisons in Kakashi’s skill are delightful. I am loving every single second of this

I enjoy seeing them get cocking thinking they finally have the upper hand and will take the intruder down, only to have Kakashi kick their asses.

Genjutsu for the win again!

Kakashi wore his headband over his left eye… to make it easier to realize who he is??? The lil shit!

‘He had once been a Konoha shinobi. Until the sixth Hokage had dismissed him.’ Grudge! We have a shinobi with a grudge! *drinks this up greedily*

‘He would expect nothing less from Kakashi than the nerve to make the first love when surrounded by 12 people’ hatake Kakashi, world renowed lil shit and cocking f*** XD

‘Shin Hakubi, hm?’ Kakashi see’s and recognizes the dude immediately. He is the complete opposite to gai in this way (gai never remember faces while kakashi commits them to memory)

‘This was the greatest fortune of his life, going one-on-one with the Hokage when he’s used up his chakra’ do they just… forget he’s highly skilled in Taijutsu too? He goes toe to toe with gai, a taijutsu master, and they just… forget this?

KAKASHI USED GENJUTSU TO MAKE IT LOOK LIKE HE STILL HAD THE SHARINGAN!? He didn’t even know who he was facing but he knew without a doubt he could use his title as ‘Kakashi of the Sharingan’ to scare the absolute shit out of his opponents.

‘But he saw my Raijin shuriken and hit them. There’s no way he could pull off a trick like that without the sharingan’ think again b***

‘After learning that he had repeatedly robbed civilians on missions, Kakashi had dismissed him’ good. No thieving trash allowed

Kakashi got the beat the crap out of the POS who hurt that little girl! Go baby!!!

This chapter was so good! There’s the action, the stealth, the intelligence. I love Kakashi so much because i got invested into this universe for the Shinobi and he’s an actual representation of a talebted well rounded shinobi

I love seeing him in his zone. Being a stealthy little shit but also cocky af because he knows he has this. He knows he won’t lose. It’s brilliant!

For the Redacted match-up! ^_^

A song I’m currently fixated on: “the lakes” by Taylor Swift. The whole song is just so beautiful and wistful. 😭 And something about the melody of these lyrics just hits so right.

Specific lyrics: “I want auroras and sad prose/I want to watch wisteria grow right over my bare feet/Cause I haven’t moved in years/And I want you right here”

Enneagram type: 6w7. (And just for fun, I’m an ISFP as well)

YouTube essays: I don’t think I can focus my attention on a video for that long, tbh. It’s the same reason I can rarely get through movies in one siting. 😂

Imaginary childhood friend: I think her name was Amy? Don’t remember much else, though.

Falling asleep: I always sleep with my fan on, no matter the weather. I have to have the white noise, otherwise it’s just too damn quiet in my room. Usually I’m propped up by two pillows, cuddling one of my stuffed animals or something. If find that I can’t sleep, or just want something to fall asleep to, I’ll put on one of Redacted’s sleep-aids.

Name change: Cheesy as it sounds, if I didn’t have my current name, I’d love to be named Juliet. It just has such Main Character Energy™️ (and I mean that in a good way) and is freakin’ romantic as hell to me. (And yes, I’m aware that the play is a tragedy, not a romance. 😂)

Favorite Redacted audio: If I had to pick one, I think “Serenity Daemon Helps You Relax and Sleep”. That video is just so freaking comforting and sweet, and it’s knocked me out more times than I can count.

Redacted boi with no appeal: Regulus. Yanderes just aren’t my thing, and he legit scares me. 😅

Book/Movie/TV show you could quote entirely: I’ve watched The Breakfast Club so many times, I could quote it forwards, backwards, and sideways.

Redacted BFF: Elliott. Take away the “Lovers” aspect of his relationship with Sunshine, but keep all the playfulness, teasing, and banter that they have together, and I’d be perfectly happy. 😊

(It’s also a really perfect coincidence that Eli’s said he’s the “Protector” type, and I just so happen to like being protected. XD)

Go-to tired ramble: Most of the time when my any of my friends and I would have a sleepover and it was late at night, we’d just get really deep and start talking about life.

Go-to gas station combo: I try to avoid gas stations when I can, just because I hate the smell of gasoline. But I’d probably get a plain Hershey bar and a bottle of water. (I know, I’m boring. 😂)

Favorite playlist: Do you mean Redacted, or just in general? Because the answer depends.

For a general answer, Jacksepticeye’s play through of Night In The Woods. That game is honestly such a comfort one for me, and I can watch that playlist a million times over and never get tired of it.

In terms of Redacted, Ollie’s. If there’s angst abound on the channel, or I’ve just had a bad day at work or something, I can run to his playlist and feel like I’m getting a big, warm, metaphorical hug. 🥰

Guilty Pleasure: I still read, and love, young adult novels. I don’t care that they’re “predictable”, and that I’m “too old to be reading them”. You can pry those fluffy, romantic, cheesy-ass books from my cold dead hands. 😆

Anything else about me:

I seriously think I’m the biggest Swiftie I know. When I say I’m obsessed with her music, I am not kidding. 😂

I’m a huge musical nerd. And coupled with that, I love, love, love to sing. (Provided I know that no one’s listening, anyway.)

I’m a total introvert, and am pretty shy/quiet in general, unless I’m around my friends.

My love languages are quality time and physical touch.

I maaaaay or may not have a slight candle obsession. (Bath and Body Works ones, specifically.) Seriously, I have like, four unburned 3-wick candles sitting on my dresser, and I’m convinced I just like to collect/look at them as opposed to actually lighting the things. 😂

I’m a cat person through and through

This one’s random, but I felt like adding it anyway. I basically live in one beat up pair of combat boots. There are not a lot of shoes in my closet.

I have this thing where I either tear through a TV series in like, a few days, or I don’t touch it for months. The same with books. I don’t know why I do that. 😂

My favorite colors are blue and purple 💙💜

Well, if you’re a cat kind of guy (gn), you know that’s gonna make things easy for me! Though it might not be the boy you think, because I’ve got a case to make for you and Milo Greer.

What I really like about y’all is how the things y’all like (other than cats) contrast and how cute that contrast is. Like, I don’t think Milo’s a Swiftie but man shows up and shows out to take you to her Eras tour. The Breakfast Club isn’t his favorite movie, but he’s seen it with Marie; he’ll say the iconic lines with you when y’all watch it for the hundredth time. He doesn’t really love musicals but he can hum along to Alexander Hamilton with the best of them because that’s an ensemble piece and you need a backup singer.

Milo’s just a really great boyfriend who shows love with a combination of Quality Time and Acts of Service with little sprinkles of Gifts. It’s not just time spent with you, it’s time spent engaging in the things that interest you and make you happy. It’s the time thinking of you when you’re apart and bringing home fun, new candles he saw at the store. Although he is definitely not opposed to physical touch- y’all have a lot of cuddle nights, just you and him and Aggro.

Song:

However big, however small/ Let me be part of it all/ Share your dreams with me/ You may be right, you may be wrong/ But say that you'll bring me along/ To the world you see/ To the world I close my eyes to see

Now, I said Milo’s not really a musical man. You know what he is? A bisexual king with good taste, which means he loves you and a good Hugh Jackman flick especially since Zac Efron is involved. So I think he’s a big fan of The Greatest Showman and of singing the addictive, earworm-y songs with you. A Million Dreams is the sentimental choice, but y’all go fuckin hard to This is Me.

Runner-Ups:

Guy is absolutely a Swiftie and a musical theater kid, okay? Erik hasn’t confirmed it, but I know it in my spleen to be true, so he’s a fantastic runner-up for that reason. Vincent is a runner-up because he adores but despises that you stick to one pair of torn-up shoes and constantly showers you in luxury footwear. I think that’s cute.

note: I understand you completely candles are not just scent pieces they are decor

Read this post and send me an ask if you’d like a match-up of your own! 💌

speaking of dreams that reminds me of one i had back in high school that is so fucking funny/cringy i need to share.

i used to work at the “local” theatre in my city, so in my dream i was working a shift on concession and everyone was abuzz about the rumours that there was going to be a new adaptation of interview with the vampire (this was back when there was actual talks of this happening/a new movie adaptation of the vampire lestat irl and robert downey jr. was supposedly in talks to play lestat). i was excited as a fan of the books, but i also wasn’t really participating in the conversation at all. meanwhile a customer came up to my till and i did my whole spiel of offering a combo and asking for their points card before i even looked at them, but when i did immediately i knew that this person in front of me was the REAL lestat de lioncourt.

and i just kind of froze. like i had no idea what to do or say because i both wanted to acknowledge that i knew who he was, but i also didn’t want to alert anyone else to the fact that he was there. but of course because of dream logic lestat knew that i was struggling with that, so he just casually lent in and asked if i was familiar with him. and of course i just kind of nodded dumbly, but that was enough to kind of start a conversation. i don’t remember what we said, but there was this feeling like we had a deep connection even though we just met, so when i finished getting his order he told me that he’d meet me after work and we could talk more. i was so insanely excited because he was going to tell me all this stuff that never made it into the books, so the rest of my dream shift just flew by.

i can’t really remember too many details after that, but we did meet up and, this is the really funny part, but he could fucking fly (as he does in the books eventually) so he fucking FLEW US to the top of this large apartment complex and we just spent the whole night talking and by the morning we were really good friends 😂. WAIT it was cringier than that, like legit we had a moment where we were like it feels like we’ve always known each other, and like we were destined to meet!! eventually armand showed up too (like next evening ish in my dream, and he was just lurking outside my bedroom window), but he was jealous that i was getting close with lestat, so i had to explain to him that we were just friends and i would literally never get into a relationship with him ahahahahahhaha

#oh my god i forgot about this but man it’s even funnier when i write it out #but you KNOW i was so fucking happy when i woke up after this one #i was like BRO FUCKING JACKPOT OF ALL DREAMS!!!!!

[juneviews]

I love offgun in this new show, the dynamic is great and it's cartoony but in just the right way *coughmiddlemanslovecough* but what has been your favorite and least favorite elements so far and do you think it will get deeper or stay sweet and candy-coated? (I'm down bad for either!)

yessssss, the cartoonish aspect is so fun! ngl I haven't watched middleman's love when they decided to replace mii2 but apart from that I always feel like no other country can do silly like thai dramas lol. like idk they just can push the boundaries of comedy while still making their show good in a way most other tv shows I've seen can't!

anyways, my favorite elements are the chemistry, of course, which is just so... offgun. even though I usually prefer offgun in shows where they're more upset (lmao I love my men crying leave me alone), it's really nice to see them in this kind of show & their natural chemistry is so perfect you can tell they barely have to put any effort for it to look amazing. apart from that, I truly love ten & prem as characters SO FUCKING MUCH. I'll try to keep it short bc I legit could write a whole essay about them but I truly love how they're both genuinely good people who should be bland & boring, but instead are not AT ALL. also, despite the cartoonish-ness of the show, they genuinely feel like real people. we have ten who is both a hot, rich, smart & perfect love interest (which are usually boring ngl) but is also very dramatic & silly & has that nerdy loser quality to him (and it's not just the glasses I promise) which is such a paradoxical combo yet works SO SO well??? as for prem, I wasn't as sold to him before the show aired but I FUCKING LOVE HIM??? he's again, kind of the cliche main character good guy that the viewer is meant to see themselves reflected in, but they made him sassy and feisty, and proud but also insecure and I just... root for him so hard ngl. these two are such strong characters they're really carrying the show, but another element I love is the acting bc I didn't think gun could slay a comedic role this well & I'm sorry I ever doubted him! as for off, it's incredible to see that he once again managed to make one of his characters absolutely unrecognizable from his others, idk if anyone else noticed or if I'm just that one completely unhinged off stan but he kinda changed his way of speaking for this role??? he speaks way softer & more proper which is a very drastic change from who off is usually lol. also another element I love are the locations & especially prem's house/restaurant... it looks so cozy & beautiful 🥺

the element I don't like is gmmtv not putting up the uncut version of the episodes on their channel. the cut version can stay on tv who fucking cares but them not putting out the uncut version for inter fans is ACTIVELY hurting the show. first of all, the cut scenes should NEVER have been cut in the first place, they are not superfluous at all & develop the relationships (especially firedynamite's one) further. second of all, the cutting of the scenes just make the editing look SO weird bruh, the cut eps look unprofessional. and lastly, it hurts the views of the show, of course, bc most people are not gonna watch it on gmmtv's channel & are just gonna wait for it to leak on kissasian & dramacool, which is simply horrible. the whole thing about gmmtv releasing their shows on youtube is bc it profits them greatly in terms of viewerships & marketing. so yeah, that's my least favorite thing about cooking crush. there's some other things but they're nowhere near that bad lol so I'll wait for more episodes or for my official 'axelle judges bl shows' review to put everything out at once.

lastly, I do think the show will stay just sweet & quit surface-level. from the original mock trailer, we know there will likely be one crying scene but that's kinda it I imagine. personally, for a show to become my favorite I need more angst & more depth, but I never really went into cooking crush thinking it would give me that. I've rarely encountered a comedy that doesn't stay quite surface-level. do I wish the show would explore the characters' sexualities, ten's daddy issues, fire's mommy issues & tenprem's social inequality more in order to make it more deep? yeah, I'm ngl. do I think that's what they're going for? absolutely not. that being said they might surprise me bc girl next room: richy rich (with off as lead & by the same director and screenwriter) did explore the mindset of an ex-poor person become suddenly rich as well as social inequality with quite a bit of nuance, so we never know!

Bruuuuuuh lemme tell you something.

💙⚡LEMME TELL YOU SOMETHIN! 💙⚡

If the games raiden was half as good as the animated movies raiden.

We'd be in heaven as mk fans.

Look no offense,mk 11 to me seems pretty amazing as a game(impo) from gaming standards and aspects. But story wise for the past 3-4 games it's been lacking. What I'm saying beyond the fun aspects of gameplay,customization,etc. Mortal kombat as a franchise has been so-so for a while now. Again impho,the games aspects outside of storytelling. Has aged for the better and gotten better over the many many years like a delicious wine. The graphics,the extra features,the details,the combos,fatalities,etc. All absolutely amazing as always. But when it comes to the story. They just no offense,suck. It's bland but not basic or simple enough to be digestible. It's complicated in all the wrong ways. And major plotholes and nerfing for plot. Raiden is a prime example. Raiden is a fucking god! He is canonlly in story in many many timelines to be one of the strongest (next to his brother fujin) Gods in the mk universe. Only being surpassed by the elder gods themselves. Simply because his element,his powers,draw from the very essence of the earthrealm itself. A whole freakin realm! Do you know how strong this mofo is?! Very. Even when he's mortal,even when he canonlly nerfed himself on purpose to fight in the tournament. He still kicked major asssssss! And thats not even the half of it. Raiden legit is supposed to be op. Thats the point. He's the mentor,the kombatants of earthrealms warriors (especially liu kang and kung lao respectfully) teacher and protector. The only other being other than himself that is SUPPOSED to be on equal terms in power and respect is his brother fujin. The other only person that is an adversary that can go toe to toe with raiden is shang but thats due to the many decades and decades of them duking it out,not to mention shangs magic.

Like i could go on forever how the nerfed raiden in all the wrong ways in the games.

But the animated movies?! Oh holy butter on a biscuit is raiden badass! The voice,the characterization,the art,yes,yes,and a thousand times yes! This is the raiden i want. This is the raiden i need.

Course it still isnt perfect,nothing is. But is it better than the games? Yes,unfortunately it is.

I hate to say that too because the games should be the bread n butter and should be the best version. Because thats the source you know,but it's not.

It kinda makes me sad.

Look you can make raiden softer,vulnerable,and even add more flavor. But without nerfing his character to the point he doesn't feel like an actual god character or worse yet,weak compared to his bro. Which isn't fair,cuz they are SUPPOSED TO BE EQUALS PERIOD.

Anyways can we also talk about how fucking cute his face is when he's mortal?

I mean look at him

His face,it's just so 🥺💙⚡

Soft but wise,but also stern but chill,funny too. Like unf. This is the closest thing we got to raiden in a long time for me that comes close to dotr raiden,conquest,or even 95 movie raiden. Its like a combo of all that but more oomf. Plus that voice? Smoooooth and silky.

Don't let me stop you from loving game rai. But this rai? Oooooo boyeeee. Yes sir! I'll take this any day.

color ask game: 1, 5, 7, 10, 13, 17, 24, 26, 27, 35 hehe

Favorite color(s), and why ?

So obviously it's hard because i'm obsessed with colors and i love many colors but if i had to pick one it would be yellow. I've discovered my love of yellow maybe five years ago and since then it's only been growing and growing. It's the happiest color, it legit helps me with depression. Also I like every shade of yellow which is not something i can say about any other colors. I used to not be a fan of light yellow but i'm starting to grow fond of it, and even greenish neon yellow, my least favorite shade of yellow, can work in many contexts i believe.

5. Favorite color combos ? 

Yellow & blue, orange & blue, green & blue, red & blue, green & burgundy, black & beige, light blue & bright red

7. What’s your color palette (i.e. pastels, earthy tones, neons, neutrals...) ?

My favorite color palette is bright, primary colors : bright red and yellow, deep bright blue, bright orange, grass green. These are the colors i'm instantly drawn to, and that i consider part of my identity, my core. But I also really like neutrals, especially beige and wood tones in general, and earthy tones (khaki, burnt orange, camel...). I've recently discovered that i love the combination of bright colors with more muted tones actually, like on this picture :

10. Gold, silver, or rose gold ? 

I had a long gold phase for a few years but recently i've been tired of it and have rediscovered silver. I'm obsessed with chrome, like on bauhaus style furnitures specifically it's just... so good.

17. What color do you think compliments you best ?

Camel. I've had a camel colored sweater for yeaaars and everytime i wear it i feel like all my features pop.

24. What color makes you feel the strongest feelings, if any ? 

Klein blue and similar bright, deep, layered shades of blue. I've talked about how yellow has a strong impact on me but them blues are just on an other level. When I see klein's art in person, especially when he uses pure pigments it's like... It's like something is slashing down my throat to rip me apart. And I can't look at it for too long because i'm afraid i will start crying, i'm afraid i will get lost in the color, go crazy. But, in the best way ? No other color does that to me, needless to say.

26. Tell us about a color-related fact you like ?

Blue is the rarest pigment in nature, most things that appear blue don't contain blue pigment, it's the structure of these things and the way the light reflects on it that make us see them blue. How wild is that. Makes you understand why the indigo pigment was such a big deal.

Here are some fascinating videos about it :

27. Is there a color that holds a unique symbolism in your culture ?

Not anymore I don't think. But for example white being associated with royalty and aristocracy was I believe pretty specific to France (but don't quote me on that).

35. Thoughts on yellow ? 

Apart from what I already said, it's just such an underrated, overlooked, and even despised color in modern western culture, it's so crazy to me. While as you've pointed out it's literally the color of holyness in many many ancient cultures. I remember seeing a very interesting poll (that i didn't save because i'm dumb) where they were asking people across Europe to associate words with colors, and yellow was one of the least popular colors. Interestingly, the more you went up north, the more positive responses were given, words like "happy" and "sun", for obvious reasons. I also feel that yellow is way more popular amongst people our age, maybe because we're all depressed lmfao. Anyways my final take is, if you like yellow i instantly trust you.

Thank you so much for letting me ramble about one of my favorite topics !! Lots of love to you <3

My mk asks answered by me

Here is my mk asks answered by me

(These are just my personal opinions and takes)

Various mk based asks

Combo of sfw and nsfw.

Cw:nsfw content.

❤🐉❤🐉❤🐉❤🐉❤🐉❤🐉❤🐉❤🐉❤

SFW:

• What is in your opinion the best stage?: honestly overall in any game is living forest, shang tsungs throne room(mk1) and island ruins(mk11) respectively(because im a shang tsimp). And there are a few others but i can't think of the name specifically rn.

• Who is your main?: currently shang tsung. The og main is/was kung lao

• What powers/fighting type would you have if you were in mk?: well if i go by my self insert oc lady tsung(shang's wife),she has his fighting skills since she was trained by him,only a bit of magic which is fire magic. She is very monitored and limited with soul magic (due to her husband being cautious af). But if its me straight up? Fire magic/fire chi.

• Who is your fave kharacter(s)?: this will be extensive) shang tsung,kung lao,liu kang,scorpion,subzero(both kuai and bi-han),raiden,fujin,jax,johnny cage,kano,jade,kitana,shao kahn,mileena,goro,kintaro,sheeva,reptile,smoke,rain,cyrax,sektor,nightwolf. These are just ones i really like.

• If you had to pick a representative realm,who's side would you be on? Or would you be on your own side,acting alone? Aka neutral.: I'd be neutral. I mean I'd be probably a bit bias to earthrealm,because i live there. Buuuut. Eh.

• If your found yourself on shang tsung's island,washed up on the beach. What is your first reaction,and what would you do first?: besides choking half to death of seawater. I'd probably mildly panic. But then be happy because its a tropical paradise. Unf,yes. But I'd try to find out who lives here if any at all. (And me finding shang well....this is the hell i choose hun)

• Would you have a master/teacher/sensei? If so...who?: well my self insert oc lady tsung is technically his pupil. Soooo. Shang tsung. But also I'd pick him anyways,because who better to learn from then legit the guy that can turn into anybody?

• Fatalities,brutalities,or friendship?: depends on the situation. Game wise. I love brutalities more now than fatalities. Friendships are always welcome. Storywise or in a narrative? Maybe a fatality,cant go wrong with that. Friendships or mercy if the story counts for it.

• What stage would you NOT wanna be stuck in?: fuuuuuuck. Probably the pit only because,i do not like heights. But close second would be the deadpool/acid pit.

• Who would be absolutely terrifying to fight in mk. Even if it was at its fairest and you had the highest advantage.: raiden. Because why would you fight a god? Shang tsung not because he is only dangerous to fight but this fucker would know i like him,and take full advantage of that. He probably already has. The fight wouldn't get anywhere because he'd be too busy trying to get a rise outta me.

• Who's your least faves and why?: Stryker,because acab and i just dont like him all that much. Kronika because she's useless as a main badguy is underwhelming,and boring. (Look things could always be written better but how it was played out was hella sloppy and no excuse for them to not write better)

• Who's in your opinion the best character to play as? Who is the worst?: that depends entirely on you. For me personally the worst,i hate playing d'vorah and mileena in mk11 soley for the fact its hella unbalanced. But overall in mk across the board. Any character with gun(minus erron black because his character is based around rooty tooty mc shooty). As for the best character. Any of the two monks,johnny cage,raiden(if done right) and shang tsung if you wanna be an absolute jerk to your opponent. These characters are well rounded across many games for the most part and good to play even if you know nothing of mk. Or fighting games. Liu kang is easy and so is johnny cage. Good for beginners.

• Fave game?: shaolin monks and mk2.

• Least fave game?: honestly i dunno. I can't hate a mk game. Only critique its storytelling. But it's never been 100% anyways so despite any personal gripes. All mk games at the end of the day are fun. If you aint having fun. Then it sucks.

• Favorite iteration of your faves? The least fave?: ok look my fave shang tsung is always the 95 movie. 11 when he came back i was so stoked! (And the only reason why i got mk11 in the first place. I wouldn't touch it otherwise) but i have a soft spot for mk legends SR and BOTR old man shang tsung. Artt butler's performance grew on me. But no offense,unpopular opinion here. Snowblind sucked. Unless you are a kano simp or a kenshi fan. You wont like this movie. It feels so catered to one type of audience it aint funny. But BOTR and SR also has some problems too. But shang tsung is once again the only good thing about it. Maybe raiden. But thats about it. Sadly.

• Who would you love to have a drink with?: shang,not because i love the character. But because it would be fun and interesting conversations I'd have. Maybe raiden or fujin.

• Who would you play board games/videogames with?: raiden or kung lao or liu kang. They'd be fun. Videogames with johnny cage. Because he'd be a blast.

• Who would you have as a sparring partner?: if not shang? Liu kang. He'd be fair... ish.

• Who is your arch nemesis?: quan chi. More likely.

• Who if given the chance to. Would you love to sit down and have a deep conversation with?: shang tsung or raiden. If i can get away with it,shao kahn surprisingly. (Look my shao kahn is waaaaaaay more scary intelligent than is depicted in most media)

• Where would you like to live in the mk verse?: shang's island. Far tf away from people. Plus i love the ocean and beach sm.

• Would you help johnny cage with a movie if given the opportunity?: maybe. Depending on the script.

• What's your main outfit look like?: i have art of it.

• Do you have a self insert(s/i)? If so what do they look like?: see above

• Do you self ship? If so. With who?: shang tsung uwu. Because i absolutely love this character.

• If you could change 3 major things about the story. What would you change?: ok first of all get rid of these "titans" bullshit. Thats for starters. Second of all actually make the elder gods do their jobs,be more involved and relevant again. 3rd thing,write a better system of rules of mk and enforce the tournament,like actually make this not just plot convenient. Actually enforcing these rules.

• If you could have the power of the crown,would you take it? If so what would you do? If not,who would you give it to and why?: i wrote a whole thing for that with my self insert oc lady tsung.

• What is a race/species in mk you want to be explored or expanded upon?: the kytinn,the shokan,maybe reptiles species the saurians.

• What part of the lore is underrated or underused?: shiiiiit there is too many things they forgot and left to rot.

• Opinion on the special forces?: too much involvement in the story when they dont need to be. Not to be that guy but i really wish people would stop having this obsession with us military. It's disturbing to me. And special forces,was never ment to be a huge thing. It was so minuscule in the grand scheme of things for mk. Like it was to show " hey yeah, you aren't the big bad tough guys here. There is something bigger than you. So buckle up bitch because you about to get humbled" because i loved it when the characters had to rely on things that was beyond them. Like actual fighting skils and not relying on "gUn" to do the job. Maybe magic. Because let's be real. The us military would both piss their pants at an actual invasion of another world. Plus wanna get their greedy hands in whatever crap outworld has to offer. Dont lie. We'd be fucked if we didn't have a raiden or mk tournament to back us up. The only thing that should come out of SF is sonya n jax and they are again,minuscule in the grand scheme of it all. They got humbled real quick. As it should be. There is more I'd add. But id be here all day.

• Opinion on the elder gods?: should be utilized more and better. But overall cool.

• Opinion on the old timeline? New timeline?: honestly i just want a good story. New,old,dont matter.

• Opinion on the "kombat kids"?: could be better. Takeda and jin are the only ones i actually care about. Jacqui is cool but became a jax "clone" instead of her our autonomy as a character. And cassie,dont get me started on her. I'd be in a rage for days. But I'll leave it as she should have been johnnys kid from other marriage,instead of a careless one night stand that turned into loveless forced marriage for plot because the writers are brain dead and bigoted towards jax's family(because of course the only two main yt characters gotta have happy endings without much damage and actual consequences). But ya know. That's too spicy for people who don't understand why this shit pisses me off personally.

• Are you a heroic kharacter,villainous,neutral,etc?: myself? neutral for the most part.(as for my self insert oc Lady tsung will always be by her husband's side regardless if it's agreement with him or not. That woman is loyal. She is also neutral for the most part)

• How dirty are your willing to fight?: as dirty as it calls for it.

• If tempted by an enemy to join them if it ment saving your realm,home,loved ones,friends.....would you?: if its shang id be boned. Lol. Take that as you will. But if its shao kahn,fuuuuck i would begrudgingly say yes. I'd find a way out tho. If im already on shangs side or the "bad guy" side. Probably not,I'd be loyal af to shang even if i agree or not.

• If you were to be in an arranged marriage with a "bad guy" who would you rather be with? What about a "good guy"?: *chuckles* im in danger. *sweats as shang looks at me suggestively* But im not sure about a good guy tho. Kung lao would be the prime candidate for that maybe.

• If you could kiss any kharacter,who would it be?: shang tsung no doubt. But maybe lao. Kith,kith him on his head. :3 maybe fujin. Hee hee.

• Would you show your opponent mercy?: have they earned it? Then Yes. If not. Well time for the pain.

• If you had to pick a kharacter to die or killed off,for good. (Aka no bringing back for plot,like actually they ded ded bro) who would it be?: stryker....sorry Stryker enjoyers. But hey...he'd go out in style. So dont worry too much.

• Who would be a better guest kharacter?: duke nukem. Dont ask. I think it would be funny.

• Opinions on guest kharacters?: i dont care for em. I feel they take up space on the roster for more important characters and characters more deserving.

• What rules of mk are absolutely necessary and what rules do you think would be absolutely bullshit? (This one is for people who actually give a damn about tournament rules,lore rules,and general rules that were established in lore. If you dont care. Skip this.): honestly the rules should be more prevalent in the plot and story in general than what is shown. Period.

• What features would you keep,get rid of,and better utilize or polish up. Or even add?: get rid of too specific augements that legit are useless otherwise. Keep the easy fatalities tokens those are a godsend. And maybe add better skins and outfits. Better customization than just color palette swaps. And not 30000 of the same one only slightly different. Add a color wheel to custom the color more.

• Who is more aesthetically appealing?: shang tsung. Yeah im bias. But maybe the storm gods. But again they are gods so....yeah.

Ok now for nsfw

❤🐉🔥❤🐉🔥❤🐉🔥❤🐉🔥❤🐉🔥❤🐉

• If you had to have a one night stand with a kharacter who would it be?: probably shang tsung. Tho i wouldn't really do one night stands. But especially with him. But he'd make it worthwhile. Next after that would be fujin,raiden,maybe kuai or hanzo. But again i dunno if these would actually be a one night stand.

• Who in your opinion has the biggest pp? Whether in energy or literally the biggest: as in figuratively,probably big pp energy is shang,shao kahn,hanzo,sonya,and fujin and raiden. But literal big pp would be: shang,shao kahn,raiden and fujin

• Who would you say gives the best oral?: not to be bias but shang tsung. Silver tongued isn't just for communication and or scheming dear. 😏💖🐍. But i feel he's got experience. Plus i hc he likes oral giving and receiving.

• Where in the mk verse would you liked to get fucked the most?: shangs island,the wushi gardens,and maybe the fire gardens.

• Who would send the most chills if they did dirty talk to you?: shang tsung automatically but fujin i hc gives the most filthiest dirty talk,you'd never know. And to be praised by a God would be ....excuse me a moment *throws water on self* ah much better.

• If you woke up next to your mk blorbo,naked,in their bed. What is your reaction?: *dies of embarrassment and happiness because omfg im next to shang tsung*

• Sexual tension training session? Thoughts?: *hee hee hee* yesss. Bonus points if i can get shang flustered. But training with anyone with "tension" would be hilarious.

• What god,elder god,or immortal kharacter would you smash?: fujin. Hands down. No contest. Raiden a close 2nd.

• If a god caught with your mk f/o (if you have one) doing the do. What would your reaction be? Theirs?: I'd die of embarrassment. But raiden would be like "i didn't wanna see that" *leaves immediately*

• Who is the most husband/wife/spouce material? Who is the least?: honestly for bad guys shang tsung. You'd have everything you could ask for,nobody would dare be stupid enough to harm you (less their soul be food for fodder for shang) and he's actually very accommodating. I hc he's cuddly and a bit maybe possessive in bed. But overall a good husband. As for other characters good and or neutral. Hanzo,kuai,johnny,raiden and fujin,kung lao,liu kang,and baraka.

• Would you bring back sexy outfits? Skimpy attire for everyone? Or just keep it rather tame or realistic outfits?: both and all,keep many options open.

• The smuttiest,filthiest,hc you have for your faves.: *cracks knuckles* ok look im only gonna give 3 for shang. Because i have too many. That i can make for a separate post for another time.

1. Shang tsung loves to eat out his partner on his throne,and also getting head too. But if he's getting head he wont mind if anyone happens to walk by or see by "accident" it's kind of a "ego" boost for him. But if he's going down on you,giving YOU pleasure? Nobody must see,if anyone thinks about seeing you like that. They'll get a face full of flaming skull or worse. This is him pleasing his beloved. This is a private and more pampering time. He wants you all to himself. To savor all of you.

2. He will only let you dom him if he is married to you,and its been at least a year or 2 after you married. And only if he is absolutely in the mood for it. But only you are allowed. And only certain things. Shang has trust issues and if he let's you do these things and you communicate well with him. He definitely loves you. But you have to be a special person for him to let you. But oh boy shang tsung whimpering to you in bed gives me the best high of my life.

3. Shang tsung has used magic to please his partner. Dont lie. If he's busy he will use his magic to pleasure you. If he's extra spicy he'll use a magical sex toy on you. While he does his work. Which might be making magic scroll,to alchemy,to helping reinforce his islands defenses or engineering. (No making clones is a tedious process and takes up way to much resources. Plus its annoying for him unless he gets paid enough or compensated for it. He dont do that shit for free. Plus im sick of the clones excuse and plot. Ugh no offense to people)

• How loud is your mk blorbo in bed?: shang is moderately loud. Most of the time. If he wants to be loud however,all the island will hear him. If he wants to be quiet however,its more likely you are playing a little lovers game. He always want you to be loud. How else will they know your heart and soul is his?

• Mk Blorbo,angry sex? What's it like? What about other faves?: oh yes. Please. I need this in my life. Shang is rough not enough to do bad damage. But he won't hold back. It's what you expect from a dark and very powerful sorcerer such as shang tsung. As for other faves. You know how they fight. Thats how they fuck. Makes only logical sense. Lol.

• Mk Blorbos Opinions on virginity?: look shang i genuinely feel doesn't guve a fuck if his partner is a virgin. It's only icing on the cake. If you are a virgin,he will absolutely take pride in being your first and would have the biggest smug ass grin on his face. But if not...oh well. He will make it feel like its your first tho. Either way he'd love you no matter what. If you managed to capture his heart n soul? Oh boy he'd have his little claws like a vice grip.

• Mk blorbos opinions on breeding kink? Would they have this kink? Would they be willing to get into this kink?: *evil laugh* the idea and fantasy? Sure shang is down. But in reality? Eh i dunno. He's too cautious for that. But with convincing,you could change his mind.

• How would your fave go about asking for sex? Would they be straight up or would they give hints and play around with you? What about you?: shang tsung could go either way. But he's always tactful and tasteful about it. Shang loves playing games,mind or otherwise. So the courting isnt any different. As for me,I'd rather be upfront but tasteful.

• How long would they wait to have sex with you? Would they be ok with rather early on or would they actually wait a bit?: at least give him a year. Shang isn't gonna say no if you are willing a bit early on in your relationship. But give him at least a year to figure you out.

• Would people know about your affairs or would they keep it under the radar? Or would they kinda have something in between?: depends. It's more of an open secret. Like they'd know you fucking shang or at least are close with him. But they dont know details. Just as shang would prefer it to be.

• Would they fuck after a fight? Would they fuck during a sparring match? Would the do this during training? What is their opinions about sexy times during kombat?: depends on how that fight went. If shang comes home after a fight and he lost badly,he might take his frustrations out but only if you agree thats ok. He'd never do it unless you wanted to. But if you green light that,be prepared for a sore ass the next day. But otherwise he'd work out or take it out on a minion. He comes back however and the fight was an absolute flawless victory. He'd celebrate and pamper and cherish you like the jewel you are in his life. Either way you're good.

• Turn ons? Turn offs?: he likes to be somewhat clean. He hates feeling dirty when fucking. So at least let him shower a bit beforehand. During the sex he can get filthy. And its not a huge deal if you both are in the moment. But he prefers to be clean and have a bit of a romantic atmosphere. Also i hc he loves somft s/os and naughty brats. So if you are both or either. You in luck.

• What they seek in a sexual partner (aka what they find sexually attractive) vs what they seek in a significant other/spouce (aka marriage material): ok shang doesn't discriminate with sexual partners. He's down for anything. Be it somft and sweet or you are more aggressive type. But as for a spouce? If you are patient,know how to talk and handle people,diplomatic,and or intelligent(doesn't need to be scientific or book smarts. But emotional intelligence is a huuuuuge turn on. Someone who has emotional maturity and understanding is a huge way to get him to say "unf just fucking marry me already!" ) you have him at hello.

• Who would they have a dick measuring kontest with. Aka who would they have to throw hands the most with for your affections?: there may be many. But i feel kung lao(for personal reasons),hanzo(because he feels shang doesn't deserve me) and maybe fujin(out of jealousy and the fact he doesn't trust him), maybe liu kang but in weird platonic way(unless its an au) maybe shao kahn but thats for funny memey reasons only.

• Do you like them softer/romantic or more spicy/kinky?: both

• What "bedroom" nicknames would you call them? What about what they'd call you?: shang would use. peach,my love,my beloved,my jewel,my pearl,or straight up calls you beautiful. As for me I'd call him master tsung (he relishes this),sorcerer(only in a teasing way) maybe bao bao if im feeling mushy,my love,but for the most part i just call him by his name.

I’d love Sophie Turner. She’s grown a lot as an actress and looks-wise, she’s close to perfect. She also would do well with the chilly, regal vibe. but what if they went for like…Blake Lively, to give her an umpteenth chance to be a ~serious actress~ lol. She has the height and wears clothes well. Also perhaps Samara Weaving, since she’s in the Ryan Murphy stable already? Murphy’s pedigree has fallen off, but I imagine Carolyn will be a really coveted role for any white actress under 35.

I agree there are no established actors rn who could credibly play JFK Jr. It’s impossible to overstate how much of a sex symbol he was. Aaron Taylor Johnson kind of has the physique imo, but I don’t see it otherwise. Old Hollywood would yield tons of options though. They should go with an unknown out of Yale Drama or something.

I actually like Blake in certain things--like The Shallows or A Simple Favor. But she's an actress who works for certain roles, versus an actor that can adapt lmao, which is what Carolyn requires. And tbh, the biggest thing standing in Sophie's way, elephant in the room, is probably her marriage. Is it fair that getting married and having a couple babies in your twenties is often devastating for actresses? Not at all. It's a product of misogyny. But in this current environment that is churning out hot girl after hot girl with legit talent, you're showing up in JoBros roasts and music videos and having kids versus being hypercompetitive, you will get lost. I think Sophie is very talented and gorgeous. She ain't perfect (none of them... are) but she's got the ability. But I don't know if she's being considered for roles like this right now because she's been pregnant for much of the past few years. Again--it's horrible and bad. But that doesn't make it not a thing.

I think that as much as Ryan Murphy has had some stumbles, there are still a lot of legit iconic people who love to work for him, and he's not out of the count for awards season, so to me... Carolyn would be a role lots of girls will want. I could see Samara, though lookswise she ain't right for it at all lol. She's very talented, so maybe she could convince me. Carolyn was a complicated, controversial person we don't know much about for sure--were she and JFK Jr. on the outs or not when they died, was she a cokehead or not (I mean probably), what was up with the kids issue, etc etc. We know less about her than we do about him, and she's less beloved, so there's more room to play.

ATJ is inspired casting, I love that and he could totally do it. He's one of those guys who's stupid hot and very talented, and due to a combination of the how uncomfortable everyone is with his horrid marriage, that issue making him hard to market, and him honestly being a "type" that's not as in right now... It's hindered him. But otherwise, like--yeah, you might as well get an unknown. People don't get exactly how ridiculous JFK Jr. was. He was hot, he was rich, he was a big dude, he was the heir to THEE family of the United States. The Kennedys have fallen off in recent years so a lot of younger people (lmao I'm 27.........) don't get it, but like. JFK Jr. a combo that you really don't see often. And if they can't convey that in the show.... It's gonna be disappointing.

Kurt Fashion: On My Way

Link to masterpost

Omg so much happens in this ep here we go

I’ve seen him in this shirt before and I really like it. Looks great with the black pants/boots. Tbh these boots are my fav of his, along with the work boots

Just a simple black shirt, but made more interesting with the off center buttons. Classic Kurt twist. Looks great with the pants and I really like the belt

Again my fav boots. The pants... I’m getting beetlejuice vibes but ain’t that mad about it. I like the shirt/sweater/ascot combo, and ofc he rocks black/white

I was v worried he was wearing those beige pants at first which would give the Mr Feeny vibes, but these grey ones look much better. Also haven’t seen these white boots before and I really like them. He’s been adding a lot more edgier stuff into his style (besides the harnesses lol) and I like it

Classic grey coat, one of his staples. ANd more black and white stripes. Really works for him, and I’m not usually a stripes person. Like legit there are so many styles that I normally dislike and he just. Makes it work

And another coat option. I like the grey better, but this has some fun marching band rope on it

do you have any headcanons about your diluc ships? like when you think of them what first comes to mind?

and im talking about ALL your diluc ships

Ahahaha OK OK.

So I've bored you all the Chiluc enjoy. So I'll be brief.

Childe and Diluc, number one best chemistry. Like legit, they are the fantastic combo of being similar enough but different enough. They are just the best, and they fit into so many different situations together. I love them so much.

My number 2 Abedluc. Again it's 2 asexual introverts chilling on a mountain. They really started bonding when Diluc agreed to test the delusion foe Albedo, and in return, Albedo makes things for diluc's nightly activities. I also think Albedo helped bust diluc out of fatui custody in the webcomic. No one in the cities knows they together save Sucrose, and she's not going to say anything. But they just work together in near silence. Just wanting to be close and not needing to say anything.

I love them so much. They are just.. sexless marriage? You mean the best marriage.

Zhongluc is much like Albedluc. And their relationship is very domestic. Diluc can listen to Zhongli for hours, and he often helps Zhongli out with the whole being human thing. Definitely has been trying to install the value of mora onto Zhongli. Especially now, Zhongli might have fucked up the whole economy.

Thomaluc, this one is just so sweet, honestly. It's childhood friends. And this is kind of the one case where Diluc realized his feelings for Thoma early on. Like probably not long before Thoma leaves, but Diluc says nothing as he doesn't want to stop Thoma. Even when Thoma returns. Not u till Thoma realizes how much he missed Diluc.

Ittoluc now this one!!!! It's perfect. It's Diluc personal himbo. I think Itto would admire Diluc so much and would be Diluc's absolute hype man. He would build him up so much, and it would be so embarrassing for Diluc, but he totally deserves it.

Diluven, so I'm more on the friendship for this one. But I get why it's decently popular. You kinda got the reincarnated lover angle. And with such a pure friendship, I can see it being more.

Ayaluc, so two young masters. But here is the thing I feel Diluc is more no-nonsense. And has more worldly experience. Ayato is totally clueless about most little things of ordinary people. And I love the idea of Diluc just slapping some sense into Ayato and Ayato falling hard for it. ALSO, Diluc beating Ayato at chess, but well, Ayato was amazed he was beaten; Diluc was happy Ayato presented such a challenge (Ayato will need a few more years before and need to play a few rounds with Ningquang before he can face diluc)

Euluc is a good dynamic of 2 people who are separated from the pack. One is because people think he is perfect and should be held in high regard. The other is because people think she is a villain. But they find comfort in each other. Both are outcasts and not seen as true they are who they truly are.

Rosaluc. Look, it's like a low-key batman/catwoman thing and a kind of guilty pleasure. Like Venti and Diluc, I feel they work better as friends, but again I can see it being more, and honestly, I love it cause I can see Rosaria just straight up asking Diluc out, and he would get all embarrassed. Very very cute.

#diluc #diluc ragnvindr #albeluc #Chiluc #Zhongluc #Thomaluc #Ittoluc #diluven #ayaluc #euluc #Rosaluc #Ships glore man #I just want people to love diluc #just like I do

How would the LI's be with a "I hate everyone but you" MC? My wife is like this and I literally have never had a moment of insecurity in our relationship when she'll point a deadly glare at anyone that'll even look at her flirtatiously like an insect she wishes was smaller so she could squash em.

Doesn't like anyone near her breathing bubble, stiffens up at hugs. She isn't malicious but wouldn’t necessarily go out of her way to smile and be friendly with others. But her entire face lights up and she's the first to greet me when I show my face anywhere.

Is literally the sweetest partner I ever had, she'll squeeze the air out of my lungs with a giddy hug at all my accomplishments. Even tiny things like showering since my depression has been really severe lately. Listens to me rant about Litg bullshit even though she cannot understand who Jo is and why she's a bitch because I talk too damn fast.

Adopted a turtle after I said I had always wanted one as a child but couldn't have any pets due to helicopter parents. Had an entire bubble bath ready and massaged my feet after we returned home from the hospital because ✨SEIZURE DISORDER✨ we love that...

I was legit so confused when everyone thought I was bonkers for being with her when we first started dating. Like "how could you say that? She's paradise🥺"

I've been ranting for centuries here, but like, I love my woman. Bye~

this ask is so fucking wholesome and i love that you have someone like that with you. it's really endearing how much you love her and WE-FUCKING-STAN. i reckon someone like that doesn't need anyone's approval so it's easier to just not care.

"How would the LI's be with a "I hate everyone but you" MC?"

li's that would start dating her but it wouldn't last:

bobby. it becomes aggravating to him after a while. he doesn't get along with people that can't socialize.

gary. he likes the mean stuff she might says but mostly worries about her relationship with nan, given his family is so warm. he's not anti-social so it might be hard to be with someone who is.

hannah. also can't deal with someone that might come across as rude. they're not, but that's how they're perceived. she would be embarrassed that the girl isn't warm.

ibrahim. nope! he broke up with someone very similar to that, shannon, and went for a goofy girl, jo. (we also don't stan jo in this house!).

lottie. she likes someone that eventually warms up to people and that's not the case here. she likes coming across as tough but she's really a nice person when she meets people. unless they're priya.

priya. she might get with mc but realize she needs someone to rely on during fun times, that includes socializing. she's always the heart of the place but that only happens when she has some sort of support.

people that would thrive in this relationship:

carl. perfect combo. he has his boundaries and it's nice to have someone that understands them and acts similarly. leaving parties earlier might become a sport.

elisa. very that type. even though she gets humorous, it's mostly to make fun of other people so they would get along great!

henrik. it's canon (alongside a couple of them) that he likes "cold-blooded" comebacks. he's the golden retriever to her bat.

kassam. THRIVING. ABSOLUTELY THRIVING. mc would be kassam with a bra, he would love to meet and date someone like that. the banter would be heavenly and parties they go to brief.

lucas. ALSO THRIVING. the teasing between them would be out of this world. neither of them are really into fake-liking people so they can be both honest about it. plus, he's that type of person.

marisol. that's basically how i see her, so i think she would also be ok with someone like that. "i'm hard on anyone except you" is her life motto.

noah. the difference between him and bobby is that he doesn't need other people's approval on his relationship, and noah doesn't care. he cares more that they get along than how she gets along with others.
