currently having thoughts about schlatt w/ separation anxiety
(all sfw)
texts his s/o about everything he's doing all the time to keep in as much contact as possible
also sends pictures of everything he's doing throughout the day since it can be faster and more engaging than just describing things or sending brief updates like "on the bus now"
calls every single night if he's away for multiple days. he'll typically either fall asleep on call or stay up super late talking to his s/o and fall asleep at like 5 am
likes calling his s/o while they're out of the house (as opposed to getting texts from them all the time cause he knows most people can't keep up with that)
not a big fan of splitting up when on an outing with his s/o, even if it'd make the trip faster or otherwise be more convenient
will come up to his s/o at random times during the day and just insist on hugging them for a minute or two cause he remembers that they're there and they're a person and he needs to be close to them

So I’ve been having some Thoughts ™ about why there is so much hype for middle aged queer people rep on the internet right now (or at least that I’ve seen being part of the ofmd + mcr fandoms)
[Warning: I will make some reference to homophobia, transphobia, mental health issues and HIV/AIDS in this post. It will be brief and not particularly graphic but if that’s likely to affect you, maybe give this one a miss]
Bear with me, in order to make the point I want to make I will have to get into some personal history (but hopefully in a way that is still relevant). When I was younger and I first started to realise I was queer I distinctly remember my family telling me that it was a phase I would get over or that I was just following a trend and soon I’d get bored and be ‘normal’ again. I think a lot of other queer people were told this by friends/family growing up too and it really does get to you. Even though I knew it wasn’t true part of me always doubted (and honestly still doubts) whether they might be right and one day I might just wake up cishet and then I’ll have to go back on so many of the things I’ve said. Not feeling able to trust your own lived experiences really fucks a person up, personally it made me feel unstable and pretty hopeless. I think there is still a belief that queerness is a trend or a fad and that with maturity comes ‘normalcy’ if that makes sense?
I think another contributing factor is the fact that the HIV/AIDS pandemic. While I am fully aware that HIV/AIDS is an ongoing issue, It’s also fair to say that there were millions of AIDS-related deaths in the 80s and 90s, the majority of those who died were queer men. Due to that pandemic a huge portion of a generation of queer people were lost. And we didn’t just lose them, we lost everything they could have contributed to the world. And the queer people who weren’t lost had their voices supressed so much that hardly anyone could hear what they had to say. We lost quite a lot of people who would have been role models for us.
And obviously there’s so many other things that contribute to the erasure of queer people and our lives that would take me fucking millennia to properly get into.
But essentially, I think for these reasons, it’s very hard for young queer people to see a future for ourselves. I think that’s why it means so much to us to see older queer people just living out their queer lives.
For me, seeing Gerard Way at 45 years old standing on stage wearing a dress has such a profound impact on me because it’s a kind of self-expression I was always implicitly told there was no place for in adult life. When I watch shows like Our Flag Means Death with two queer main characters who are 40+ falling in love it means so much more to me that these coming of age dramas centred around 16 year olds coming out because what they show me is that it is absolutely possible for me to keep being myself, for the rest of my life. I remember a time when it was impossible for me to have any hope or goals for the future because I believed I had no future.
But seeing these queer adults express themselves serves as a reminder that not only is there a future for me, and all of the queer people out there, but that we have a place in the world. Our queerness is not a fad, we are not going to just ‘grow out of it’, being nonbinary was not invented by social media in the early 2010s. Queer people (whether that be in terms of sexuality or gender) have always been around and we always fucking will be. This world is ours as much as it is anyone else’s and we are going to live here.

okay, so my 2 cents on the Hob fuckability debate is this (partly inspired by what @oneiros-the-shaper-of-forms said): on a scale of extreme fuckability, for me, all the Hobs are on one end, which is the opposite end all the Dreams are at. Dream's end of the scale is "extremely fuckable, but in a supermodel way. You can admire from afar. It's possible you might fuck but it's almost a pipe dream (ha!) and you certainly don't expect to see him again after, much less marry him" (we're talking about how he looks here, not what he did in canon).
Hob's end of the scale is "extemely fuckable, but in a he's-husband-shaped way. Halfway through the first date you know that not only are you going to fuck, but that this man is going to always to right by you and marry you and raise your children" which, to me, is extremely hot.
Corinthian would be more towards Dream's end of the scale, but a little ways away from Dream because he's a slut so you're 100% going to fuck, with the caveat that there's absolutely not gonna be a second time on account of the fact you'll be dead.

— epilogue 00.
“ too sweet. “
joel miller was a shot of whiskey. you were a raspberry daiquiri. not to be mixed, but something about joel drew you impossibly near. you knew good and well you were too young for him. but did that stop your heart from rattling in your chest and your knees from going weak every time you stepped near him and inhaled the scent of coffee, whiskey, and spice ? absolutely not. and did it especially help that he was your father’s closest friend and colleague? no. and… shouldn’t that should mean joel was off limits? technically, yes, but... where’s the fun in that?
not to mention that joel was like, what , twenty years older than you? i mean, yeah, you were of age. maybe your dad didn’t need to know.. problem was, the guy saw you as a total kid. and you needed to prove him wrong.
