#no thank u for the ask i love the feeling of solidarity

[boypussydilf]

thank u so much for being critical of these past two episodes ive felt crazy about how much i just. didnt like them but im glad to know others feel the same way. i hate hate hate how they basically portrayed simon as "cured" after talking to golbetty because its so. it feels like such a deep diservice to everything they set up. its like these episodes were them yelling at us that "no actually, this is the moral" and simon isnt allowed to grieve or feel guilt or any other emotion and its jyust so. its so. i hated how it just treated everyone. it feels like in trying to tell a story about how betty deserved better they threw her under a bus repeatedly and robbed her of all agency. these last two episodes just felt so preachy and then ended up feeling like they were saying nothing at all... sorry for ranting in your inbox ive just been reading your posts and agree greatly with your criticisms. it just feels like the entire show has no weight at all and theres barely any growth or change. it feels like simon is at the same point he was in obsidian if that makes sense? and it felt like they went oh crap oh right we have to end this and made a big ball of junk. anyways sorry again for rambling im not a hater i liked the show im just supremely dissapointed

I FEEL YOU SO BAAAAAAAAAAAAD. ikeep seeing like, polls asking ppl what their reactions to the finale were and a weird amount of people are saying theyre happy and satisfied. how………

Yeah!!!!!!!!!! God. The show was so good, if you just, pretend the last 2 episodes don’t exist.

they fucked up both simon and betty soooooooo so bad!!!!!!!!!! they have all this setup of simon having some very very deep mental issues and then he’s Pretty Much All Better for Literally No Reason At All. the moral of the story is wow he fucked up bad! the moral of the story is he actually DID need to just move on! from the love of his life from the person whose memory he clung to when he otherwise completely lost his mind and identity from the person who made an unfathomably large sacrifice in order to save him one that hangs over his head constantly!!! He just needed to GET OVER IT!!!!!

And they come in. Act like Betty had no agency. Lik she was not a grown woman making her own decisions on purpose. Like she needed Simon to make the right decisions for her. And they SURE AS HELL DONT FOLLOW THIS UP BY GIVING HER AGENCY. We finally see GOLBetty. And for what? For her to explain to Simon like a child how he fucked up. And then leave. And that’s literally it.

And they spend the episodes just…… spelling everything out as clearly and deliberately as possible in the dialogue! God forbid we utilize subtlety and allow the viewer to figure out important details via any other method than characters explicitly stating what the point is!!!!

God….. yeah……. i loved that show, overall. but what was the point of it, in the end. all of that was for nothing. in what way is simon not pretty much just back where he started. we don’t get to see it.

What was ur thought process into making or developing Samyaza?? Or all of the watchers..I’m like 50% into the book and he’s hypocritical to me like he makes these back handed remarks abt azazel having a man but like does it matter cause you all are sinners in the eyes of god and it seems he wants to get rid of everybody on earth so far

It seems like most of the watchers still hold some type of bias towards the “sinners” of Heaven for being a “whore” but you guys aren’t even in heaven (and won’t be treated the same when u return) and you guys are doing the same thing :/ even having tons of babies like did you guys even think abt this being a possibility???

I feel like this is an unpopular opinion but I kinda dislike Samyaza it seem like after everything that’s happened he still doesn’t try to see different view points on life on earth apart from his. He chalks up Armoni not particularly liking his wife (that he was practically forced to marry) as just Armoni being his usual distasteful self. :(

I may just have to reread a couple of pages to try and understand Samyaza or any of the the watchers. But I LOVE your works and I think they’re amazing and I didn’t want this to come off as passive aggressive I guess I’m just confused abt some of these characters since I don’t think like they do

I realized this just seems like a rant but still you’re writing is AMAZING💕💕💕 you’re really inspiring as a writer 😋

a&m spoilers

Hello! I'm curious if your thoughts have changed since you sent this ask, but disliking Samyaza definitely isn't a minority opinion!

I think almost all my betas disliked Samyaza at the start, but they all liked him by the end. I think, for most readers, Samyaza is hypocritical, selfish, and etc., but the amount he suffers by end makes it so that.... well, yes, Samyaza might be a bit aggravating at times, he definitely didn't deserve any of what happens. And he does change as a person, at least I think so.

The story of Enoch sort of lends itself to the interpretation of a husky, tortured fallen angel who sweeps a beautiful woman off her feet and has to choose between her or God, his Father. I like to say this is the version of Samyaza that I would have been able to write if I wasn't as gay as I am, but my reasoning for not making him that is a little more complicated.

I like writing hypocrites, and I liked the idea of an angel that saw his struggle similar to a woman's, feeling a solidarity with her instead of just sexual attraction. One part of Enoch that always struck me is the passages about the Watchers crying and begging Enoch to talk to God for them. I thought the angels being unsure or not really knowing that this would make God as mad as it did was interesting. I liked the idea of him being an angel associated with water because of his role in the flood, so I made him a lesser angel of healing. I can go on and on.

In my original concepts of A&M (YEARS ago), I intended for Samyaza to be much more of a bad person, almost an antagonist to Azazel. But as I outlined, I started falling in love with this version of him.

Btw, it's okay if you dislike Samyaza and even dislike him after finishing the book. Not all characters have to be loved, and Samyaza would agree with you that he doesn't really deserve anyone's love or forgiveness after what he's done.

I can talk more about the Watchers if you like! I really like all of them :') Thank you for the ask! I'm happy you like my writing. I hope you enjoy the rest of a&m

68 please ❤️ 🥺

hi @spectrum-spectre thank u for the prompt 🖤

68: “You’re making me blush!”

When Eddie got dragged through hell, killed by demon bats, and then resurrected by Steve Harrington’s CPR skills, he never expected anything to come of it. It was supposed to be one of those experiences, a deeply traumatic experience, that he would live through and then hope to forget about it.

But it didn’t happen that way. He got friends out of it.

He got Nancy Wheeler appearing at his trailer at 6pm sharp every night to tutor him. He got Robin Buckley and her quiet solidarity. He got Jonathan Byers trading tapes with him accepting that Metallica were pretty great, but “The Clash are too!”. He got Argyle, whose last name he didn’t even know, that was always down to share his weed and cuddle.

And he got Steve Harrington.

Steve Harrington who filled every other gap in Eddie’s life.

All that is to say, Eddie probably should have expected to see his friends cheering his name from a booth near the back of the Hideout as he stepped out onto stage. It shouldn’t have thrown him off. He shouldn’t have been surprised that his band mates were smirking conspiratorially with one another.

He stumbled his way through the set with less grace than usual. It was mostly covers from a pre-approved list that they were given when they booked the gig, but for their service, Corroded Coffin got to play two original songs.

Eddie resolutely didn’t think about how they only got that privilege after news of his murder allegations spread beyond the Hawkins boarders.

“Eddie!” Robin waved at him from the front of the stage, bouncing on her toes. Steve stood next to her and the others were all still at the table they’d commandeered. “Come here!”

He glanced towards his band mates, he’d feel shitty if he left them to pack up without him. They all rolled their eyes in sync and waved him off.

Eddie shared fist bumps with them all and tossed his van keys to Gareth. As the only one with a vehicle large enough to drive all their kit around, he was always the designated driver. Though nights like tonight made him wish he wasn’t.

“Hey!” Eddie said as he crouched at the edge of the stage. It wasn’t raised as high as real stages in real venues, but it gave him enough of a lift that he could swing his legs off the side to sit on the edge and have his feet not touch the floor.

“Why didn’t you tell me you guys were coming?”

“We wanted it to be a surprise,” Steve said. “Are you surprised?”

“Oh, for sure, pretty boy.” Eddie mentally socked himself in the jaw for the pet name but smoothly continued on. “What did you think?”

Steve shifted his weight so he could lean against the stage. He had to tilt his neck back slightly more to look at Eddie, showing the long slope of his neck and the freckle Eddie always finds himself wanting to nibble on whenever he catches sight of it.

He dug his fingernails into his thigh to stop himself reaching out to touch. The last thing he needed was to be distracted by thoughts of his hands on Steve’s neck.

“I think you were great!”

“Oh, Stevie!” Eddie laughed, pulling hair in front of his face. “You’re making me blush! Keep going.”

Steve playfully rolled his eyes with a fake put-upon sigh. “If you insist—“

“I do.”

“I don’t, like, get your music, but you looked, I don’t know, happy? And that made me enjoy it, you know?” Steve ducked his head away from Eddie’s gaze. “It mostly sounded like noise but seeing you enjoy it was fun. It’s like you were made to be on stage.”

“You really think so?” Eddie asked. He really needed to stop being shocked about anything to do with Steve Harrington; first they were friends, now he was validating the greatest love of Eddie’s life?

“I do!” Steve wrinkled his nose when he thought hard about something and his eyes narrowed. “I can’t explain it but, you know how people always say Freddie Mercury or David Bowie were born to be on stage? Born to be performers?”

He waited until Eddie nodded before continuing. “I mean I’ve only seen them on MTV but you’re in the same category as them for me.”

Eddie bit his lip to stop himself from grinning too much. “You‘ve gotta stop, Stevie, or I can’t be responsible for what I do.”

Steve laughed. “All the more reason to keep going then, right?”

Eddie eyed him for a moment. He always got the sense that Steve was trying to say more than he let on. Part of it might have been wishful thinking, but even Eddie’s overactive imagination couldn’t conjure up Steve having the same feelings he did, it was just too far fetched.

“What would you do if I kept going?”

Eddie dropped his head closer to Steve’s, he could feel the heat off his skin and smell the musky cologne Steve always wore; it was almost enough for Eddie to get lost in. He took a second to let his eyes glance around the room, to make sure they weren’t being watched.

“I’d have to kiss you,” he confessed, pulling back quickly so he could gauge Steve’s expression.

Steve’s eyebrows twitched upwards and his lips parted slightly, but he didn’t look like he was about to punch Eddie in the face, so he considered it a win.

“Oh,” Steve breathed. “In that case, we should go somewhere else because I have so much more to say.”

Eddie gaped at him.

He really really had to stop being shocked about Steve Harrington.

Hii :)) i saw the ask u sent to fairuzfan about knitting a keffiyeh-scarf bc hirbawi is always sold out, do u have a pattern u are following or something?? I also knit and would love to try to incorporate solidarity with Palestine in the stuff in making <333 thank u and also its a very beautiful scarf, the way u did the color changes so it is two-sided is amazing!

I do! I used this free chart from Ravelry (they have a crochet version as well!), and then modified it to change the orientation because I wanted to make a longer scarf with mostly the fishnet motif and then the olive branches at the ends. I did the color changes with double knitting because I didn't want to deal with floats XD

The amazing thing is that since I found that pattern in December there are like seven new projects that have been added where before there were none. It's really lovely to see the solidarity in the maker community.

I hope you have fun making your scarf and I'd love to see pictures if you feel like sharing!

♡ Vismay and Eve, oldies but goldies (I think I sent them in as a crackship pair as well so you could absolutely use the crackship pairing version for the thing if u think there's any more connection/interaction there for ooh interesting)

Eve would definitely find solidarity with Vismay as ancient mews (:

●○○○○ | ATTRACTION This little blip is more of a "if he was a she I would probably be into him" than anything. Those arms are super interesting, oops

●●●●○ | AFFECTION I think if they met they would be friends whether he liked it or not. Hell, she might even appreciate him as a sibling figure. She's just thrilled to have another ancient back in her circle tbh

●●●○○ | INTEREST Eve would love to share stories with Vismay about their respective worlds. If he wanted to recite his entire life's history over the span of hours, she would listen, and probably return the favor too

●●●○○ | LOYALTY Despite the platonic love Eve would feel for Vismay, there will always be things of higher importance.

●●●●● | TRUST Eve would respect Vismay and trust that he holds views similar to hers when it comes to the sanctity of life. She would turn to him for just about anything, I expect.

Thank you for the ask! :D I will finish their crackship someday I promise fsdklkfdsh

Woe, 💕 be upon ye

I’ve been following ur Golden Brother fic for about… half the time it’s been up? I was already baffled by how u posted such long chapters of such GOOD SHIT, but recently I was like “oh yeah better check out their Tumblr!!” and… Who did you sell your soul to write that much, often post multiple drawings a day, AND have a webcomic (I still need to read it tbh) going??? LMAO

Whenever I open a new chapter and remember how long they tend to be, I go insane (affectionate, in awe, thankful).

That being said, if you overwork yourself with fanfic, fanart, or asks I will smack you with a large tree branch. So don’t u dare feel obligated to make a reply for this HHFJSBSNS

About the fic tho,,, your writing is so good. I came for the arc between Hunter and Vee (which I ADORE btw), but everyone’s characterization is just top tier imo. You even think through canonical strengths so well that you find new ways to turn them into FLAWS and I like it a very not normal amount.

Like… Luz genuinely fucking up a bit? Without being tricked like she was with Philip? You created such neat depth around her coping mechanism of distracting herself by helping others heheheee!!

Willow and how she got so set on being “the reliable one” that others find it hard to open up to her since the vulnerability feels one-sided is really interesting cuz it makes sense! It’s counterproductive, but I can see why she does it.

“The true mom-friend was Gus” is BASED, I’m absolutely here for it!!! He’s one of my favs, so I sometimes think he’s overlooked as far as character depth, but I love how you write himmm!!

Amity having to re-recognize that her and Hunter do indeed have a lot in common, but becoming very relaxed and understanding towards him once she does? Yissss always appreciate the (platonic) rosegold hostility->solidarity pipeline!

Hunter’s lingering child soldier mentality stuff is mmmmmmmmm!! And seeing him start to overcome it as he trusts others more IS SO!!!! AAAA!!!!! Plus his skill in understanding others and being a mediator from having a leadership role in the coven is super cool and fitting!! Also the grimwalker shenanigans are a blast ofc. Hhhnnggggg you’re really fueling my brainrot here >:[ /POS

Salty Vee fuels me. After being so mistreated for most of her life, she deserves to be a lil angry. As a treat. Directing it at Hunter may have been misplaced, but it’s understandable enough that Hunter himself recognized what she needed and encouraged her do her thing (when he does it out of guilt, I wanna hit him upside the head with therapy, but it’s still nice of him). And then her sudden, genuine “I forgive you” makes me wanna SOB, it’s so gooodddd!!

Even Jacob is super neat???? I never thought of Masha being like family sorta with him (and ngl I was actually :/ about the idea for a hot sec) but you worked it SO WELL!! I’m interested in his arc now lmaoooo

I can probably go on, but EEEE can’t wait to see more!!!!!

Anyways, THANK YOU FOR CONTENT!!!!! I wish you motivation, energy, health, happiness, and breaks if u need them XD

Thank you so much for this letter, its been so lovely to re-read it and it's been very encouraging. 💝💝💝🙇

Idk where to start. Just thank you very much for saying all that. 😭🙇💙💙💙

#introductory post #felix and his rants

[ghostdrinkssoup]

as a follow up to the ask u answered about will graham + sex/power/honeypot/etc,, why do you think he decided to have sex with margot? (aside from real life logic ''brain no think-y. only horny'')

hello! :D thank you for the ask <3

honestly I think it’s a mix of needing a place to vent his feelings for hannibal and some misplaced righteousness. rewatching the buildup to this scene is really interesting actually, since it follows the randall tier arc, with will committing his first genuine murder/art installation and enjoying it, plus hannibal bandaging his hands. and before this we see their relationship development in su-zakana and shiizakana where 1) we see that will’s vindictive nature is a real part of his personality, and yet hannibal was able to convince him to lower the gun (which he later confesses is something he let hannibal do) and 2) we see evidence of will’s attachment to hannibal despite who/what he is when he dreams about killing him, with hannibal (indirectly) telling will that he loves him, implying that this is what will wants to hear (“no one can be fully aware of another human being unless we love them”). there’s more to this particular scene that’s worth ranting about but I will write an essay if I’m enabled and it’s not what you asked so we’re gonna move on 😂

^^ so anyway, we have will in the midst of his honeytrap arc, where he’s trying to lure the “monster” he perceives hannibal to be, the one who doesn’t care about him. but slowly he’s getting evidence against this black and white perception of hannibal, and he himself is seeing new facets of his personality (or rather pre-existing facets) that now have reason to flower. that and he’s suddenly in a position of power, which is what he craves. I think this all compounds and becomes blurred/confused for will (almost like a type of sexual frustration) and suddenly margot shows up and allows him to express it through physical intimacy

but I also think the fact that margot is abused by mason and comes to will scarred has a lot to do with it, which charges will’s feelings of righteousness (that are also linked to his empowerment). margot is also a mirror for will, or at least his s2 persona, since both are disempowered, vindictive people wishing for revenge. they’re also both people who struggle with rage due to feelings of love, as hannibal tells margot in one of their sessions (“you failed to murder him because you love him”). so suddenly him and margot are able to have this strange moment of solidarity and are able to help/use each other for their own personal gain, which contrasts hannibal’s continued manipulation of alana

#but yeah these are my thoughts on it! #again just my opinion :D I really like analysing will’s character #especially his character progression #since people seem to have very split opinions on it #and some wildly different takes #I’d be interested to hear your opinions too! #thank u again for the ask <3 #ask response #hannibal #nbc hannibal #will graham #hannigram #hannibal analysis #hannibal meta #ghost speaks

How do you feel about Momomaeda (Kaito x Nagito) 👀 it’s one of those rarepairs I think that could actually click really well

alternatively? Sick boy solidarity

I thought it best to put all your asks in one response and thank u for the warm ToTK wishes—I am doing my part to create half-baked weapons of mass destruction as we speak uwu 

Sick boy solidarity indeed though~ *throws in Nekomaru while I’m at it lol* Imagine an au where these three form a club while they’re all in the same hospital for a while. Sad but wholesome times~

But enough about sick boy club this is about MOMOMAEDA!! Which I just love to say because I’m an alliteration simp. I looked up their interactions in DRS and TDP and YEAH it’s very interesting how differently Kaito treats Nagito initially. Like he can sense something’s off about him, but even still, he’s willing to give Nagito a shot because hey he seems nice enough and is honest so whatevs lol. Which is what I love about Kaito—because even if Nagito’s interest in space might not be entirely sincere, even if he might just be interested in Kaito because he’s an Ultimate—Kaito still appreciates Nagito’s praise (compared to others who find it uncomfortable) and sees him as a guy who has potential to become better with the help of friendship. And that’s exactly what goes down in DRS.

The fact that they included the ending tidbit to say that Nagito rejected the offer to be a sidekick but Kaito kept insisting anyways is so wonderful too! Nagito’s deep self-loathing vs Kaito’s gung-ho attitude. Immovable object meets unstoppable force lol. And like, pretty sure Kaito will win in the end simply because Kaito will not rest until his has his sidekick and it IS still a request from an ULTIMATE so really isn’t it rude of Nagito to keep turning him down? May as well play along until Kaito gets tired of him—is what I figure would be how Nagito rationalizes it all.

But yeah honestly these two are like the hype men of their class. You’re right about how similar they are with the way they compliment others and we even get to see them tag team it in DRS too. I wonder how their interaction would go if (when) Nagito becomes his sidekick. You know Kaito is going to shut down that self-depreciation talk real fast and counter it with something to boost Nagito up all while Nagi looks at him like “????”. Poor Nagito has never been in this sort of situation before ahaha. And Kaito’s stubborn too—I really can’t imagine he’ll back down from trying to help Nagito even if Nagito does something bad. Kaito would probably say something like: “He’s my sidekick. I take full responsibility for his actions and I won’t let him do this again—mark my words.” He is the hero after all. God Kaito really WOULD be such a great partner for Nagi. I’m not sure what Nagi is bringing to the table besides his anxiety of having an Ultimate with little regard for his own safety from Nagito’s luck, but hey Kaito really likes it when Nagito praises him so at least we know there won’t be a shortage there lol.

Highkey would read a novel of these two. The adventures of Kaito Momota and Nagito Komaeda haha.

5 + 12 for the ask game? (:

5: who do you feel the most you around?

oh i love this question! i have a few answers because i'm indecisive like that. i feel like when i'm with my dad i can be me in a really special way. he remembers things about me that i've forgotten or was too young to remember, he knows me in a really deep way that i think only a parent can. and i see so much of myself in him, his personality and his attitudes towards life have shaped me, my mom often says that i'm like the "better, younger, prettier version" of my dad and he agrees.

my best friend, we'll call her N, and i have known each other since we were infants in daycare and i swear we imprinted on each other. i can tell her anything and i know she will listen fully and wholly and with so much love. i can be my weird, nerdy, loud self with her and she just matches the energy so. damn. well.

my friend, R, is one of my favorite people. i've only known her a few years but i could talk to her for hours and never get tired, and i feel so safe and comfortable in those conversations. she's never been weird about my being neurodivergent and all that that entails, she told me recently "i feel like you and i have had some of the deepest conversations of my life without ever looking one another in the eye" and i think that really sums it up.

and, lastly, my friend U. he is the ADHD one in our stereotypical autsitic/ADHD dynamic and when it's just the two of us we are at peak ND controlled chaos. when we would have classes together in high school it was a lot of mildly unhinged, topic jumping conversations about everything from cellular respiration to shitting on aristotle to the cool shoes he wanted to buy. he and i do this thing where we send each other videos of ourselves talking when what we want to say is too long for or can't probably be conveyed via text. and i don't think i'd ever do that with anyone else but him, and that's a testament to how comfortable and Me i feel around him. (oh, also trans solidarity in a friendship at its finest. he's my only close irl friend who's also trans and that's a special kind of closeness)

that was a lot, thank you for bearing with <3

12: how are you?

thank you for asking! i'm mostly good. currently dealing with standard (for me) anxiety. my life right now is mostly school (which i should probably be doing work for but instead i'm on tumblr) and i'm currently being faced with what is basically the first time i've ever properly struggled with math (i'm in calc rn) while also being excited by the challenge. idk it's hard to explain, but i'm doing good overall even if a bit overwhelmed.

Word Count: ~800

CW: none

Emergency Request Fulfilled: hello ;; i'm very new to tumblr so forgive me if i'm getting this wrong somehow- but i've been dealing with a lot of health issues lately, and i was wondering if you'd be up for writing a fic with tanjirou and a nonbinary reader? where he takes care of them throughout their health issues (muscle pains and aches, weakness, headaches, heart palpitations), hums them to sleep when they can't manage, helps them stand, washes their hair, etc? thank you, i hope i'm doing this right ;;

~faqs~

Writing hcs bc my goodness this weekend’s heat has me lethargic and blarrrgh and vwygfuiwnwbibw lmao, buuut I still wanna write !! 🥵😵‍💫🤗

Also, just a friendly reminder (I promise this is a general reminder *not* directed toward anyone !!) that emergency request fanfics are typically shorter than my usual fanfics bc they’re (emergency requests) bumped to the front of my wips queue

In other words, to balance the fact that I prioritize them, I don’t necessarily write as much for them either

Muscle aches and pains

At the first sign of any discomfort, Tanjirou offers his touch

Gentle fingers circling your shoulders; tender thumbs pressing firmly into your neck; warm palms rubbing delicately along your ribs

Oftentimes, you don’t even have to ask

Subconsciously massaging your stomach?

Grimace, wince, or frown?

Exhale a little too loudly?

He’ll notice in a heartbeat, make his way to your side, and murmur, “Can I help?”

Doesn’t initiate contact tho w/o your consent (unless you’ve consented to him initiating w/o asking first)

If you’re not one for touch, then he’s happy to bring you ice packs, heated packs — whatever temperature tickles your fancy

Keeps track of medications (i.e. ibuprofen) for you

Weakness

Def the type to go overboard in assisting you, but never intends to be belittling or overbearing

Best to just have an honest convo w/ him about what you might want and need help w/

Outline what he can do for you on good, okay, and bad days

He’s just such a sweetheart, and will coddle you as much or as not much as you desire — leaning toward much if you don’t discuss boundaries beforehand

Believes you 100% whenever you tell him I need help

Doesn’t ever assume you’re taking advantage or exaggerating

Nor is he ever bothered by anyone badgering him for caring for you so diligently

“Isn’t it t e d i o u s?”

“No,” he’ll state with finality, tone leaving no room for further argument or harassment, “Loving them is a choice, and I will always choose them.”

Headaches

Serenades you (Tanjirou’s canonically tone deaf lmao) 💀

Again: keeps track of medications (i.e. ibuprofen) for you

As well as how much you’re drinking !! #hydration is key

Will drink w/ you in solidarity

Bc drinking water can be a struggle

Reads to you, goes on walks w/ you, prepares baths for you

Simple pleasures—activities—to hopefully distract you

If your headache’s really bad, then he’ll darken the bedroom, lay in bed beside you, and reassure you as many times as necessary that, “It’s okay to just lie in bed. It’s okay to be here. To be with me. Okay?”

Heart palpitations

Ngl

Idk a lot about these, and I don’t feel like researching ‘em rn 😅

But dw !!

Tanjirou would def feel like researching them for you 😁

And do what he can to ease/observe their symptoms/affects 🥺

Can’t sleep

Lets you arrange the bed however you please

No pillows? Five pillows?

Two blankets? Seven?

Sleep on your side? Back? Diagonally? Upside down?

W/ music or the tv on? No noise at all?

Fan whirling in the middle of winter? Comforter at the end of the bed in the middle of summer?

Whatever coaxes you to sleep, Tanjirou’s willing to tolerate

“Tan?” you whisper softly, voice tinged sour with guilt

“Hm?” he rasps immediately, strong arm snaking carefully around your waist, pulling himself closer to you, eyes barely open, “Bad dream?”

“No,” you sigh quietly, grabbing onto his hand, tucking it into your chest, “Can’t sleep.”

“Ah,” he nods slowly, kissing lightly behind your ear, “Want me to do the thing?”

“The thing?” you stifle a sleepy giggle

Low humming caresses your skin in response, time stilling for a languid moment, rhythmic rise and fall of his body curled against yours lulling you into security

If he waits until faint tendrils of dawn illuminate your hair—for you to truly, deeply, fall asleep—then he doesn’t mention it

HeLp he’s so precious 😭

Washing hair

Adores preparing baths for you

Bubbles, salts, oils

Tanjirou def goes on weekly excursions to local farmers’ markets or whatnot to stock up on handmade, independently crafted supplies

Remembers allergies, sensitivities, preferences — has yet to buy something that’s irritated you (as in, your body/skin)/that you’ve disliked

Took trial and error for him to master washing your hair, but nowadays you swear he could get a job at a celebrity salon or something

Your hair seems happier being washed by him ??

Shinier, fewer split ends, can go longer between washes

Altho perhaps that’s bc he uses fancy products…

“Smells good,” you smile tiredly, “New shampoo?”

“Not exactly,” he chuckles fondly, “Bought this a few months ago.”

“I love it.”

He loves it too

Loves how you melt under his ministrations, tension in your spine dissipating ever so slightly; the sweet, flickering scent of your contentment mingling with the lingering calmness of the rose tinted bath water

Hey Crush! Today on Instagram I saw that the org Human Rights Campaign has declared a state of emergency for LGBTQ+ people in the USA.

As someone who lives across the world, I was wondering what’s the situation like there? Maybe not where u live but u know what I mean, do u feel the situation has got worse lately? Love xxx

This is pretty serious and it’s sad that it’s happening but it IS happening. Especially in the southern states in the US. We’ve been seeing tons of anti LGBTQ laws being signed especially attacking Trans people. When they take from one of our LGBTQ family they take from all of us. It’s important for us to stand in solidarity for our rights.

I don’t usually get political on here but our lives are not an issue of laws and politics. We are humans and we deserve nothing but happiness and love. Thank you for asking me about this 🖤

OKAY obviously theres like The Big Stuff that happened in this chapter (REGULUS i was rly hoping he would come in and i like. weirdly had an image of this scene happening where he just Shows Up at siriuss place the other day when i was thinking abt ywlm and i was hoping it would happen!!!) but also i love siriuss little outfits this chapter SO MUCH the thumb hole shirts!! the MESH DRESS!!!!! james matchmaking the LOOK he gave sirius when remus came to the thrift had me cackling we all know that LOOK!!

ALSO sirius and lily trans besties agenda!!!! one of the canon things that gets overlooked that annoys me is that sirius was close to lily as well as james!!! i love that moment where they were just squinting at each other and i love that they swapped numbers i hope we see more of lily and mary 💚💚💚

also remus in a CROPTOP God hes so. and all his flirting!!!! he rly said enough is enough we need to fuck. ALTHOUGH the moment when he tried to hug sirius was fucking heart wrenching like GOD

also when sirius was talking about always being watched!! and feeling himself be constantly scrutinized!!! like thats so Fucking Real going out into the world and being visibly queer can be so exhausting and scary and i rly like the way u write this w sirius!!

GAH ok safe to say im like obsessed w this story!! i wanted to ask - is there any particular reason u decided to make the setting in seattle?

OKAY hi hello!! thank you for this!!

SO, yes, regulus was always going to just - show up unannounced. i’ve had a few ppl ask me about how he knew where sirius lives and it’s gonna be explained in the next chapter, but like, yeah - he’s had a weird few years while sirius has been gone. AND the mesh dress might make a comeback later xx

we will def see more of both of them - more lily than mary, bc her friendship & solidarity with sirius is so important. trans ppl seeing each other and just - knowing, is a thing i’ve experienced a lot and it just feels so good. to be seen in a way that matters like that. their friendship is really special & they’ll get to hang out more!

remus is down so bad like - we’re in sirius’s head, so we don’t know what’s going on with remus but like he is also starin at his phone all day, and leaving for work early to see sirius and has already told his parents all about sirius. they are so mutually into each other.

i didn’t want this fic to get heavy - at the core of it, it’s a lighthearted little romcom - but it was also important to me to talk about the day-to-day things that we deal with, and how sirius is navigating that.

to be honest, i literally just decided that last minute and stuck it in bc it felt weird that i never specify where the fic is taking place. there’s no real reason for it other than my wife loves seattle and wants us to settle down there someday!

xxxxx

#this message made my week i love talking to y’all so much!!!! #fic: you wouldn’t like me #esther.txt

if u want, ship bingo for arthur & ink, and/or ship bingo for alekto & narkissos? :)

THANK U... i owe u my life. i will do both b/c i'm sooo normal <- lying

so i feel like my answers for both will be similar b/c they're kinda similar in that they're both exes, but y'know what fuck yeah let's go.

first! arthur and ink! so i love them so so much and they mean so much to me... but uh. yeah they're hot fucking messes. them being exes drives the narrative and their growth as people, and they fucked each other up.

also, i used to like them more in that i used to think their relationship was sweet and healthy. i know better now.

aaand alekto and narkissos! fun fact, you asking about these two got me thinking about cudaas as a whole again.

anyway. "fandom doesn't know them like i do" because i am already incredibly wary of potential discourse about these two. "canon did them wrong" b/c i am mean to them. the rest are just vibes.

also they're both t4t and wlw/mlm solidarity. they're both mlm and wlw because they're so non-binary <333 gender <333

#talk to the bunnykitty #kurtis!!! #ask game #oc ask game #cudaas #bleeding over eden #narkissos cudaas #alekto cudaas #ink nikodemos #arthur huffman #those are all ocs of mine btw

i loved hearing that clementine fact about clemmont because i have a friend who has at least three oranges on her person at all times and will randomly start eating them. on multiple occasions she's shown up to our dnd sessions, set ~6 oranges on the table, and proceeded to eat them all in the span of a 3 hours session. i think her record is eating 9 oranges in one sitting and 16 in one day. also her dad gave her a multilingual pun name and as i'm typing this she's sounding more and more like an ace attorney character 😂

8O That's so much fun, thank-you for sharing this with me! If you feel comfortable doing so and think she would appreciate it, please let her know that Clemmont's offering her a fist bump of solidarity over them both having such good taste in snacks! ^U^

Thanks for the ask!

one more hc even though the post asking for them was 10 years ago at this point because this hc is everything to me. i forget if i mentioned it but if i did i’m mentioning it again

(meteor’s two trans icons!!!) when Luna comes out Ace is *instantly* there to support and validate her and does everything they can to make her feel safe and comfy. they Will throw hands on her behalf at Any time if it is needed. they buy her flags and share some of their clothing so she has gender affirming clothes to wear (i imagine they like to present in diff ways on diff days, including presenting more binary sometimes, so they have lots of variety !)

just Luna + Ace trans solidarity + support. thank u for coming to my ted talk

u didnt mention it before so ur good !!

CLAPS THIS IS SO- SOBS

god we love trans rep in reborn holds them so much 😭😭 they mean so much to me fr

Ace being instantly supportive is so sweet, the best support system Luna could have, she'd be getting some really neat looking clothes from Ace if u look at their fashion sense and i feel like it would fit her tastes as well !!

#i love this hc to death thank u sm #prayer hands #feel free to dump more on me i absolutely love hearing hcs so much #gon answers #pokemon reborn #ace featherstone #luna hazel #luna pokemon reborn #ace pokemon reborn
