“I don’t know, will he be able to behave?” You asked in a hushed tone as you pulled dinner out of the oven. The aroma filled the small apartment kitchen wafting into the living room where Katsuki sat waiting for you two. 

Izuku looked at you with his eyebrows furrowed, his cheeks flushed pink at the thought of what was supposed to happen after dinner.  “Yes, don’t worry sweetheart.”

His reassurance helped a bit to relax you, his sweet and gentle tone made you waver as you softened and melted into his arms once the pan was on the countertop. 

Last week when he came home battered and bruised from a long overnight patrol, he told you about how Katsuki went off the rails and exploded - quite literally - at his agency headquarters. 

“He’s probably all torn up about it, I feel bad for him. Did you give him the piece of paper?” You asked, nuzzling your head against him, drawing the warmth from his body. 

Izuku nodded and kissed your cheek. “I did, yes, he just rolled his eyes and balled it up before throwing it to me but he knows everything.” 

Before you could say anything Katsuki walked into the kitchen catching the intimate scene between you and him, he cleared his throat suddenly second-guessing if this would only complicate things. 

The look in your eyes said something different to him and he used the opportunity to take a good look at your body, the curves he wanted to discover like roads on a map. 

You felt his hot stare as you pulled away from your husband to look at him quickly doing the same, it’s been a few months since you’ve seen him, just like with Izuku you grew up with him too. 

Knew his temper as well, now in his late twenties, he relaxed a little bit, but not enough, because he put on a commotion just in time for the nine a.m. news to catch it. 

It’s been a minute since he really relaxed, friends and his parents call him almost daily to check in on him because they know he’s either at work or training. 

Focusing on those two day in and day out put a strain on all his relationships and life, especially his sex life, if he had one that is and his right-hand doesn’t count he always told himself. 

All the women who threw themselves at him were really never his type, they didn’t want to get to know him, they just wanted the last name and fame that came with it. 

“Do you need anything else?” You asked Katsuki sensing his hesitation as he pulled the chair out at the counter and sat down shaking his head. 

Izuku kissed the side of your neck before pulling the barstool out for you, ironically enough he sandwiched you between him and Katsuki. 

You served dinner and the conversation flowed easily once the blonde man opened up a bit more, even cracked a smile and blushed but still grumbled and swatted your hand away playfully when you wiped crumbs from his lips 

“How was it Kacchan?” Izuku asked draping his arm around your waist pulling you closer to him as his friend stared at you, your breasts almost spilling from your shirt and the apron you had on didn’t help his hard-on either. 

What would he do to come home to a cute wife like you every day, love and affection are something he realized he severely lacked, and with you, it came easy. 

He nodded and plucked the courage to take a hold of your hand rubbing his thumb along the backside of your knuckles. His usual brash manner softened as he stared at you, hardened vermillion eyes held your gaze. 

“It was delicious.” 

Warmth flushed through your chest as you smiled. “Good, now I know you two needed to discuss something.” 

You stood and began to clear the plates when Katsuki settled his hand on your lower back. 

“The least I can do for the invite and your wonderful cooking.” He said, memories of high school and college flashed in your mind as you leaned in and kissed his cheek. 

Izuku stood up and gathered the plates kissing your head as he and Katsuki watched you leave the kitchen, their hungry gaze was definitely noticeable and you lavished in it. 

The two number pro heroes wanted you, and one of them happened to be your husband. A shiver racked your whole body, blanketing your flesh in goosebumps as you stepped inside the bedroom. 

You heard them murmur amongst themselves, exchanging hushed whispers before they joined in. Izuku was the last one to shut the door as Katsuki stood to the side. 

”I heard you two say something about dessert?” You asked, feeling the courage bubble through you, the sultry way you infused your words like tea leaves in boiling water. 

Katsuki made the first step and let you grab his tie as he made quick work to untie the knot in your apron, letting it pool around your ankles. 

Izuku followed suit and stepped behind you, large calloused hands feel you up, and two palms rubbed your shoulders then down as they pulled the straps down leaving a trail of wet kisses. 

You dropped your head against your husband giving his friend the opportunity to kiss your neck, sharp canines gently scraping your throat making your cunt clench as you fisted his tie.

“You are going to be the best thing I have ever tasted.” Katsuki whispered gravely and deeply, his voice deep sending waves of newfound shivers. 

Izuku groaned in your ear as his hands drifted down to paw at your dress, bunching it up until your legs and ass were showing. “I agree, and it’s a taste I could never tire of, so sweet like honey.” 

“Oh.” 

It was all you could manage in words followed by something between a grunt and moan. Red eyes met green in a silent meeting as they both worked to undress you. 

“Are you sure this is okay? I don’t want to make you uncomfortable.” He murmured looking at you, uncertainty flashed across his face as you stared at him and nodded holding his broad shoulders giving them a squeeze. 

“I am yes, if anything changes I’ll let you know.” 

Katsuki tugged the top of your dress past your breasts as he kissed down until he reached your nipple, sucking it in his mouth while your husband paid attention to your backside. 

He followed Katsuki as they pulled your dress off until it joined your apron, clad in nothing but shoes, panties, and a bra you stood smooshed between them. 

“Ever been fucked in just an apron before?” Katsuki asked crouching down to grab it as he nuzzled his face between your legs. 

You gasped and melted into Izuku who supported you watching the scene unfold in front of him cupping your breasts from behind. 

“No, but we can always change that.” Your husband replied as he kneaded your tits as he gently kicked apart your ankles so Katsuki could lap softly at your pussy from his knees. 

Big strong hands held your thighs in a steel grip, nothing painful, only to keep you upright for him. He licked a wide stripe up your cunt, stopping to tease your clit with little flicks of his tongue. 

You buried your fingers in his hair pulling him closer. “Someone is more excited than me.” Izuku chuckled in response as he nodded in agreement before helping his friend push you on the bed gently. 

They both stared down at you slowly untying their ties before kneeling on the bed, your eyes darted between them as you spread your legs. 

It felt like a fire has taken home in between your thighs, your pussy ached to be played with, touched, kissed, and caressed. Little did you know Katsuki felt the same way about you, his cock hard and leaking in his slacks seeing you naked on the bed. 

He made it to you first with his hands on either side of your head as he kissed you passionately, this was only supposed to be about relief for him but he’s not going to pass up the chance to kiss you. 

His tongue swept in your mouth tasting and memorizing you, he groaned feeling his dick throb but he wanted to do something else first. 

Katsuki left a trail of kisses as he kissed down your jaw then neck, between your breasts going further until he reached your belly, his hands slid under your ass lifting you off the bed as he settled between your legs. 

“She looks so pretty, huh?” Izuku asked as he kneeled next to you, his hand petting your head. 

Warmth flushed through you hearing Katsuki growl in response as he kissed your mons then he sucked your clit making you arch your back off the bed while swirling his tongue around it he grabbed your thighs softly keeping them open. 

He took his time with you, eating you out, keeping you on the edge. “I don’t want to ruin the fun just yet.” He teased looking up at you for a split second. 

You didn’t have time to answer because Izuku kissed you deeply, stealing each breath from your lung as you pawed at his pants. “Ruin it! Ruin me!” You moaned wanting to feel his mouth on your cunt again. 

Katsuki pulled away and sunk his middle finger into you, a soft wet squelch could be heard then followed by a small whimper, both his and Izuku’s fingers were thick, your nerves felt like they were on fire as you tugged on your husband’s black and green locks pulling him closer kissing him deeper, tangling your tongue with yours. 

He added another finger slowly curling it as he found your sweet spot rather quickly, Katsuki watched entranced in the way you opened up to him, your cunt clamping down on his fingers as you blindly tried to reach for him, your eyes still squeezed shut as you kissed Izuku. 

You pulled away and looked at them as you sat up and kissed Katsuki first, his free hand came up to hold the back of your neck softly while Izuku took his tie and shirt, and jacket off leaving him in his slacks that sported his hard-on through the dark fabric you could still see it. 

Katsuki pulled away and pulled you onto his lap wrapping his arms around your waist as you did the same with your legs around his. You popped the buttons on his shirt before sliding his jacket off and then his shirt as you shimmed off his lap groaning as his knee made contact with your clit, he grinned seductively as you rolled your hips humping him. 

“So needy.” He teased flushing more heat through your overwhelmed body, Izuku took the time to kiss you again as his counterpart quickly rid himself of his pants before helping you to your knees on the bed so he could take your place. 

You pulled away from your husband and looked at him, a secret conversation was spoken through volumes in just one glance as you straddled Katsuki’s thighs to pull his boxers down revealing a long and thick cock, his head flushed a deep red that wept with pre-cum, the pearl essence made his dick pretty and as much as you wanted to have a taste that would have to wait. 

With Katsuki’s hands on your hips, he helped guide his cock between the slick folds of your pussy, the head catching on your clit making you gasp before he slowly thrust into you, the blonde man groaned feeling your cunt try to suck him in already before he planted his feet on the mattress and fucked into you from below. 

Izuku kneeled behind you, still half-dressed as he rubbed his open palm up and down your back kissing your shoulders. “You look so pretty sitting on my cock.” Katsuki grunted watching with heavy-lidded eyes as your husband palmed and squeezed your ass giving it a few light slaps that made you buck your hips. 

You leaned into him and reached into his pants palming his hard-on through his boxers as you turned your head to kiss him while riding Katsuki slowly whimpering each time he hit the sensitive spot nestled deep inside your pussy, all three of you could hear the wet suctioning of Katsuki fucking you bare. 

It was a spoken agreement between you three, you and Izuku only have been with each other and it was nearing almost two years for Katsuki, and with no protection, he could feel just how warm and wet you were for him which made his orgasm come a lot sooner than what he wanted. 

He watched Izuku kiss you deeply while fondling your tits, one palm cupping it while pinching and twisting your nipples making you squeeze Katsuki. “Fuck! You’re going to make me cum!” He shouted throwing his head back as he fucked you hard and fast from below until he stopped and held you still filling you to the brim with thick ropes of cum. 

The embarrassment of finishing early made his cheeks glow red as you pulled away from Izuku to kiss Katsuki softly continuing to roll your hips, sending him into overstimulation as you spread your legs wider dropping down further on his cock feeling him go deeper. 

Katsuki gripped your hips tightly with no choice watching you fuck him faster and harder now, you leaned back holding his knees giving him the chance to look down at where you two were connected, a collection of your slick and his cum made his dick shine as you slowly slid up and down his cock until you came, pulsing tightly and hot around him. 

All three of you stayed like that, Katsuki panting heavily as he massaged and caressed your hips, you still straddling him feeling his cum ooze out and onto the sheets while you laid one hand on his abs while still jerking your husband off until you felt him splatter over the back of your hand and his boxers, Izuku kissed you once more and pulled away as he stared at you lovingly. 

“Let’s get you into the bath and snuggled between us.” He whispered catching Katsuki off guard who watched you both then looked at you, his heart racing fast as he leaned up kissing the other side of your mouth, and circled his fingers on your lower back massaging it softly. 

They both helped you off the bed and into the bath where they kneeled by the tub and washed you from head to toe, strong deft fingers massaging soft tender muscles until you mewled and kissed them ready to go again, this time they were going to switch positions.

[a-court-of-moonlight-and-ire]

Hello everyone, today I'll do something never before seen on the flames and darkness liveblog which is read TWO chapters!! Idk man, i havent been able to read more than one chapter at a time recently because this book suddenly turned into such a slog to get through, although granted that might also just be my mental illness making it more difficult. whatever, i'll be in treatment for that next week

Anyway, today I'll be reading chapter 44 which is the star fall chapter, and chapter 45 which is. a chapter. Knowing this book series nothing of note is gonna happen in that one but that wont stop me from reading it

Chapter 44

Okay, theyre mentioning Feyre not looking so emancipated amymore and it made me remember all the weird weight shit from the start of this book. Like, she was losing weight because she was throwing up all the time and then not eating a lot and everyone was constantly remarking on that and it was unbelievably uncomfortable, but then when Feyre officially joined the night court and everyone immediately stopped talking about it, it almost feels a little manipulative, if that makes sense. Like, this book is ostensibly about Feyres healing journey but the Night Court cannot, under any circumstances, have anything negative associated with it so her trauma basically just disappears so we dont have to see the unpleasant parts of her recovery, she has one (1) nightmare after she starts living there permanently, one (1) moment where she feels too depressed to leave the bed and a few moment where she acts out but then immediately feels bad for it every time

Ughhhhh Feyre is wearing a dress for this which is really frustrating but you guys already know how I feel about that so shant go into that much more detail on this

I swear Im not just saying this to be a hater, Feyres dress sounds so tacky too

yoooooooo is Cassian implying he'd like to wear a tacky ass dress too??

and yet hes just wearing a BLACK TUNIC bro Feyre is literally covered in diamonds from head to toe so she can look like a shooting star or whatever and Cassian doesnt even have the decency to wear a black tunic that glitters or something?? Or hell, maybe even a red tunic to match his siphons, idk, give me SOMETHING im gonna tear my fucking hair out

Feyre is wondering about the IC being her friends and its like, girlie theyre barely even each others friends and youve known each other for maybe half a year to their 500 years

Feyre is describing Azriel hungrily staring at Mor's ass and it reminded me of that one bonus chapter Ive seen discussions about where he's really horny about Elain in a way thats pretty uncomfortable, and a lot of ex-Elriels say that it made them stop liking the idea of the ship because thats when they realized that SJM was just gonna mutilate both of their characters for the sake of smut, but honestly I dont think she would even need to mutilate Az that much

I could not give less of a shit about the Mor/Cassian/Azriel drama but I have to admit its kinda funny reading about Feyre speculating so much about Mor's relationships knowing shes gonna turn out to be interested in women

Mor says that Rhysand was very upset after she had sex with Cassian and beat him up as hard as he could (#incest) but she says he wasnt upset because of her virginity but because of the danger she put herself in by losing it, which is like, first of all that seems like splitting hairs, he was still upset that she lost her virginity even though that was none of his business. And second of all, I think it would actually make sense for him to have the kind of archaic sexist beliefs that would make Mor losing her virginity upsetting to him, considering he was also 17 when that happened just like Mor and Im guessing there wasnt anyone around to teach him feminism. or maybe hes so feminist he came out of the womb believing in womens rights and didnt need to be taught anything

god, the inner circle dynamics are so comically fucked up I have no idea how they can stand being around each other

Again, Im not much of a Feylin girlie but "Your hair looks... clean." >>>>>>>>>>>>>> "You look like a women again." (???? whats thag even supposed to mean)

So Rhysand is not wearing a black tunic, but he is wearing wearing a black jacket which is equally disappointing. atleast he has his tits out i guess

Rhysand was gone for 50 years and yet his best friends are not spending any time with him at their first party together since theyve been seperated, thats what i call friendship goals

Yeah, I guess its kinda sad that Rhys missed out on important holiday that meant a lot to him while undr the mountain but you know who else had to do that? Literally everyone that wasnt from the spring court

So he doesnt wanna tell his friends, who are by all accounts doing alright because theyve spent the past few decades trapped in a beautiful idyllic city, about his trauma but hes perfectly fine traumadumping on a twenty year old woman who just started to recover from her own trauma

Maybe Im just in a bad mood but this bullshit where theyre getting covered in star spirits or whatever feels so joyless to me, like its not whimsical or fun to me

Okay so, Ive heard about Rhysand calling Feyre exquisite and it made me cringe just thinking about it, but it looks like theyve translated that to him calling her 'herrlich' which means the exact same thing but it sounds a lot less weird and bad. once again, thank you, Alexandra

Feyre really just said "You regret sexually assaulting me? But why?" huh

Chapter 45:

Okay, thats the end of the chapter but theres two more things that kinda annoyed me that I didnt feel the need to mention as I was reading. 1) Feyre kept going on and on aboht Rhysand being her friend, it felt so insincere, its like sjm say a post online right before she started writing this chapter that was like "in the best relationships, your partner isnt just your partner but also your best friend" and decided to put that sentiment in her book, and 2) I felt like there were so many moments towards the end of that chapter where Feyre is like "oh, ive never felt this way with anyone" and its very obviously alluding to how she didnt love Tamlin as much as she does Rhysand now, and it was just very strange to read, like Tamlin was haunting the narrative even though hes not even dead yet

Uhm. so i got really tired all of a sudden so I took a nap at this point and read some gay vampire fanfic to rejunivate myself and now Im ready for whatever happens in the next chapter

"I was a traitor. [...] Even though I oficially left Tamlin - it was only two months ago, after all. By Fae standards that was probably barely more than a day." Oh yeah, i havent been keeping track of the time thanks for reminding me that this story about immortals is moving at a breakneck pace for no goddamn reason. But also, as an author trying to write a grand long-lasting romance, why would you write this. I know Feysand are gonna get married at the end of book and now when I get to that point Im not gonna be thinking "wowwww such romance" Im gonna be thinking "damn these bozos did the fae equivalent of getting eloped in vegas after knowing each other for barely a week"

Oh, men of all ages are training at this camp? would you say some of them are. child-aged

Feyre is being all "its so cold here, im freezing in my illyrian leathers I cant imagine a child with no clothes surviving here for a single day, much less eight years" (referring to Cassian) and yet she doesnt spare a single thought to all the children who have to be at this camp as well because this is the camp that the batboys grew up in, its not like this is a different kind of camp where they dont train children

God I hate Feyre thinking about how fuckin powerful the batboys are especially because its like, Rhysand is literally their high lord, he already holds so much power over the guys running this camp we dont need a reminder that he could easily crush their minds or that his goons need more syphons to contain the totality of their power or whatever

I get that these guys are like, shitty misogynists or whatever, but I dont think Rhys throwing them out of the house they live in is some #boyboss move hes just being an asshole

Rhysand would never want to lock Feyre in a house for protection, but he does want to decapitate anyone who lays a hand on her which is soooooo much better

Rhysand keeps calling the.... "females" of this camp "girls" which implies one of two things: 1) hes talking about adult women, hes just calling them girls, which is not very feminist of our feminist king, or 2) hes talking about actual girls aka children which. thank god for our feminist king having equal-opportunity child soldiers

Its actually kind of surreal how theyre at the camp where the batboys spent their CHILDhoods and Feyre keeps talking about what it mustve been like for Cassian while the narrative is actively avoiding talking about children being at the camp at this present moment while also not outright stating "there are no kids here at this present moment"

"'[The clipping of the wings is] to ensure the safety of their women, they said.'" this reminds me of something @/kateprincessofbluewhales said in regards to Rhysand forcing illyrian women to train but not doing anything else to advance their rights, which is that the wing clipping mightve started as a way for men to help women dodge the 'draft' that seems to be mandatory for all healthy illyrians. I dont really have anything else to say about that, it just popped into my head and i thought it was interesting

Rhysand is talking about how at some of the camps, women are declared anti-marriage material if they train and how he cant do anything about that and its like, even if these women are not officially declared unmarriable or whatever, the misogynistic men that make up these camps are probably not gonna wanna marry a women who trains, so what difference does that really make

Also, he says the only thing he could do about 'laws' like that is to murder the warlords and take their children/trainees? under his wing and I guess he thinks he would have to do that for every camp that does that but honestly, I think just doing it once or twice would send a powerful enough message to discourage other warlords from being misogynistic. And he wouldnt have to raise all these children all by himself either, Im sure he could get the help of a few non-sexist men or even, gasp, some women. Like those priestesses living in that library Im sure some of the ones that have already recovered from their trauma somewhat wouldnt mind teaching some boys about the harm that misogyny does

Okay so the blood rite is called a Blutritual [blood ritual] in german which is a little confusing because a ritual is a pretty specific thing and I dont think the blood rite is that specific thing but whatever, it sounds cool enough

Ive said this before, I am not a Tamlin girlie, at best I prefer him to Rhysand, and I dont like or trust Rhysand at all, but imagine hearing that tragic story about how their families killed each other, leaving them as the only survivors and being like "I cant believe Tamlin killed Rhysands family!!" especially when its like, the only person Feyre actually knows Tamlin killed is Rhysands dad who sucked ass, its not exactly a great loss

I feel like i had a lot of thoughts about a lot of things in this chapter that I couldnt write down because theyre these abstract half-thoughts, so I think I'll let those marinate until theyre full thoughts and share them with you at some later date

Hello! Could I request Vanitas and Noe coming home to a massive feast made by their s/o on their birthday?

Spoiling your significant other...always very cute!

Characters Included: Vanitas; Noé

Content: gender neutral reader; overall just fluff

Word count: 920 words

Have fun!

Vanitas

Having a birthday this early on in the new year meant that there weren't really all that many fun things to do

the weather was still cold most of the time, so not many people were and and about, prefering to stay in the comfort of a warm home

Vanitas was one of those people to get bored rather quickly when there was nothing exciting happening. Sitting around and doing nothing wasn't really something he enjoys. He's always out looking for some fun

his own birthday is no exception to that rule. Sure, he likes to spend that day with you, his most favourite and most important person in the world, but he still wants to do something

he's just a tad bit dissapointed when you tell him that you don't have the time to entertain him today

but he doesn't have much time to complain because a knock on the door sounds

Noé is here, dragging Vanitas out the door as soon as he lays eyes on the black haired male

they are out the entire day, doing whatever within the city (maybe causing some chaos here and there) but overall kept quite tame

he had a fun day, though it would have been better had you joined them on their endeavours

but as soon as he enters the house again, he is suddenly hit with the smell of freshly cooked food, which is suspicious to him

didn't you tell him that you didn't have time today?

he walks into the kitchen where he's greeted with an entire menu. It was like a four or five course meal

astounded, he just stood there, surprised by it, until you got him out of his trance again

apparently, you saying that you didn't have time was just a farce so that you could prepare all the food in peace. Noé just made sure that he was occupied the entire time

Vanitas wanted to be mad at you and say something, but seeing as all the food consisted of all his favourite dished, he bit his tongue and kept his mouth shut, thanking you with a kiss instead

you both enjoyed the food you made, talking and laughing while eating. He really liked your cooking, it tasted so good to him, better than anything else he had ever eaten

after you were both done, you took care of the dishes and all the cleaning up, telling him to just relax

later, you joined him in the living room where the two of you cuddled a bit more before you both decided to just take things up into the bedroom, where Vanitas thanked you properly for all the hard work you put in for him...

Noé

such a sweet man, and boyfriend!

honestly, there is not much decieving or anything else to be done with him

just straight up tell him that you have something planned for his birthday, but that you need time to prepare it

he will happily give you enough time, actually all the time you could possibly need

just say the word and he is out the house. No need to worry about him, he can find a way to pass the time

though he keeps telling you that you don't have to do anything for his birthday, but you keep insisting, so he just lets go of the topic, letting you do what makes you happy

so excited to find out what you have in mind for him. Can't help himself but trying to figure out what it could possibly be while being all hyped and giddy

once it's time for him to come back, he almost can't contain his excitement anymore. Like, literally, if he had some sort of tail, it would be wagging like crazy the entire time

immediately upon entering, he is hit with the smell of your cooking

excited, he throws his shoes off and runs into the kitchen, where you're currently in, adding the last finishing touches to the last dish

Noé takes a second to look over all the food, recognising all his favourite meals, divided into an entire five course meal

happy to receive such a thoughtful gift from you, he hugs you close to him, showering you in kisses, thanking you over and over again

you smile and giggle at his affection, but soon swatting him off of you, telling him that the food will if you don't start eating soon

you best believe he's enjoying every single bite he takes like it's the last in his life

he always tells you how divine he thinks your cooking is, but seeing him enjoy it so much is an entirely different feeling. One that fills you with pride that you're able to get that reaction out of him

after you're done, he stands up to take care of the dishes, but you shush him away, almost ordering him to leave the kitchen to let you take care of the mess

you need a bit more convincing but in the end, he relents, letting you handle it while he relaxes in the living room, though he keeps an eye on you from there

as soon as you're done, he pulls you onto the couch with him, where he cuddles you close, arms tightly closed around you

this time, no complaining or anything else is enough to make him stop showering you with praises, kisses and thank you's

after all, he has to show his appreciation for you in some way, right?

head empty just thinking about guilty pining gepard after being a late bloomer and potentially just stumbling upon an 18+ magazine one of his soldiers haphazardly left behind and oh his life has changed

never thinking of people like that before and suddenly all he can focus on is the swell of someone’s chest or over exerted breathing or the slide of sweat down their body

and rationally he would watch porn and finds himself unconsciously searching for terms that apply to you

ordering a fleshlight that he breaks halfway through the first use and he just has a graveyard of them under his bed that he’s too ashamed to throw away

not knowing how fat his cock is because he’s only ever seen sex through porn and wakes up in the middle of the night and can’t look you in the eye the next morning because all he could imagine was fucking you silly

idk he just makes me go ARGH i characterize him very similar to diluc but where diluc is so stoic I think gepard would be very reactionary and quick to flush and be much more obvious about his attraction and unfortunately cannot hide his boners or hide behind making his staff work for him :(((

also does he seem like he would have a f**t fetish because i think he might go ham for an open toed shoe… or perhaps heels stay on.,,..

this is literally SO. AHAHAGH.

gepard just figuring that he's got more important things to do, maybe his sex drive isn't all that high - only for it to be kicked into overdrive by something so commonplace, and then for it to all focus on you. there's something weirdly sexy about the thought of characters searching out porn or other sexually explicit material (books or images or anything) that specifically has features you have . . .

and i think i imagine him as very diluc-ish too! but because he's a little brother, because he's still in touch with his family, he hasn't got quite the martyr or saviour complex of diluc, and so yes . . . he blushes easily and stutters and doesn't know how to keep his feelings inside when they do bubble over!

the heels stay ON. i can see him having a fetish over something like feet; one of those repressed men who accidentally starts over-sexualising something that's pretty normal, actually. i'm not personally into foot fetish so i cant add much but i can SEE IT. i SEE THE VISION.

#nat.txt #not sfw text #hsr posting #feet for ts #and oh my god him being too rough and too big for fleshlights i am throwing myself into the ocean

[cloud-ya]

why do you hate elysia so much

oooohh I love when people ask me about that, and it's been a while without such question

*clears throat and unrolls a comically long scroll*

First thing is the way she treats other people's personal space or rather the way she invades it, especially Mei's. My own trauma regarding touching without consent/warning or mocking if I express my displeasure during such is the main factor why I want to throw this pink thing across the room. Yes, this is mainly about that godawful horn touching scene, which I luckily skipped on accident, but wasn't able to skip the dialogue after that with Raven mocking the whole situation. Describe the groans Mei was making during it however you want, but everyone told me Mei was clearly not pleased about having her horns touched. To me it was just her taking any means to get to the Deep End, and since she had only two people to choose from and she mentioned before that scene that there's no way she'd get Kalpas to help her, she had to ask Elysia for help and she happened to be really fucking obsessed about touching her damn horns, so she had to let her do so as a price for getting to the Deep End and Aponia. I consider it learned helplessness, if it can be considered so at all - Mei learnt that there's nothing she can do to be in any control of the situation she's in, so she just waits through shit helplessly in hope that it'll just happen and go away on its own. What got me pissed off even more is Elysia announcing through a fucking megaphone that she finally touched Mei's horns. It felt so humiliating. Imagine you're forced to use means which would not be pleasant for you and maybe even putting you in great discomfort and the person you did it with just publicly announces it happened as if it was something brief and both sides were fully comfortable.

Second, her idealisation. It's rather ironic that she's so perfect and flawless and whatnot while being labeled a herrscher of human:ego - human, that flaws are literally a part of nature of. She talks all the time how beautiful and great she is, and if she's to complain someone else they'll just get told that they're "almost as pretty as her". Nobody will ever convince me that she's not a Mary Sue, because she's clearly written like one and while yes Durandal was accused of being Mary Sue too "but people later just forgot about her" - people are not bothered by her ridiculous powers anymore because they were executed in a rather decent way which saved her character, unlike for Elysia who kept turning out worse and worse and more shallow with each line of text.

Third, her ridiculous large influence on the entire story and plot. She popped up out of fucking nowhere and suddenly changed the whole history of Honkai and retconned anything that could be retconned in plot. Herrschers used to be untamed representatives of Honkai and its destructive nature, Elysia shows up and suddenly it's actually that she gave them a chance to be human via her sacrifice and all herrschers from the very beginning of the current era just, idk, weren't evil and if they were it's because they just chose to and it wasn't actually that it was Honkai controlling them. Ever since Elysian Realm and Elysium Everlasting a bunch of people dead for ~50000 years aka Flamechasers are having a bit too damn much influence on whole main story, with Elysia in the lead. They ruined Mei's character with the whole ER bullshit and I don't even feel like she got any major development while being stuck there. Let alone that absolute butchery which is Herrscher of Origin, Mihoyo clearly have no idea for a show-not-tell way to express that she carries all that knowledge and memory of Flamechasers, so they just make her obsessed about them (like constantly talking about them during the so awaited reunion with Kiana and Bronya after what? few months? if not more). Mei was boiled down to Elysia stan, if not Elysia 2.0. And with the discomfort she experienced back in Elysian Realm, even if it didn't get her any major trauma... it just doesn't make sense.

TL;DR: I hate Elysia because she often invades other characters' personal space which I'm very sensitive to, she's a shallowly written Mary Sue who also has ridiculously large influence on the main story for a side character.

Saw VII and Jigsaw thoughts this fine Saw Saturday! (We actually watched the movies on Thursday but shhh it was Saw Saturday for us in spirit)

I am so sad that Saw VII was…. Not Very Good to put it mildly. Very rushed and all over the place and just did not give me the same feeling as the other Saw movies which was upsetting as this was kinda supposed to be the end cap of the main series :(

Dr. Lawrence Gordon, the character you are. I was so excited when I saw that he came back for this movie but was so disappointed when he was barely in it. I was really hoping for him to be more involved in the story or at the very least to be given a little more explanation for why he joined up as an apprentice. Like give me this man’s psyche and emotional state!!! What made *him* decide to help John do unto others what was done to him? Did he buy into the philosophy? Did he develop some sort of weird Stockholm Syndrome when John nursed him back to health after he survived his trap?

Idk if this is just me but they treated Jill kinda weirdly in this movie? Quite literally just kept her locked in rooms and not allowed to do anything and like. Obviously I would also run to police protection if I had just tried to kill an incredibly dangerous serial killer and failed like Jill did at the end of Saw VI, but I just wish they gave her something more interesting to do than have a weird dream about Hoffman killing her with a train car and cower in fear

The blood and violence was so bad this movie and I genuinely don’t know why. My guess is it’s something to do with the movie being shot/intended for 3D? But even then I don’t think that should make the blood, like, pink right? I’m not watching Saw for the gore necessarily but it was a bit disappointing when you’d see Hoffman’s face ripped open from the end of 6, and then the next shot it looked totally different

(Speaking of the 3D, the scene at the end with Gordon tossing the saw was so unintentionally funny because of it. Like, yes king throw your hacksaw at the audience)

On the plus side I thought the character of Bobby was an interesting angle to explore. A man who basically used Jigsaw for clout and profited off of faking trauma then has to go on and live through that same trauma x10

(It is kinda weird that his wife was punished for his mistakes though considering she literally didn’t know he was lying……… like we saw in 6 with the mother and son that John doesn’t want to hurt those he thinks haven’t done anything wrong (though of course his logic on what that is is skewed) but now he’s suddenly cool using this woman as motivation for a man to do these traps? Seems off)

Mostly solid trap designs this time around!

Jigsaw survivor support group is also interesting! I couldn’t tell if everyone in that scene was actually survivors we had previously seen, but it was cool to be able to pick out a few of them and be like “oh my god I remember you!”

Wish we had gotten to see more Hoffman this movie as well, though seeing him go complete cold blooded killer in the police station was kinda fun, even if it was extremely goofy and unrealistic

If they wanted to, I could definitely see a world where Hoffman is still alive. Yeah he doesn’t have the saw to cut off his own leg, but we know you can skip the chain by breaking your own foot (Eric Matthews) and we also know Hoffman has no qualms about doing that sort of thing to survive (Reverse Bear Trap escape) so he definitely did that. The only question is if he could actually get out of the bathroom afterwards

There’s probably a lot I’m missing about my Saw VII thoughts but unfortunately it’s probably my least favorite of the bunch rn. I think it had some good ideas, some ideas that I was actually super invested in, but the execution was rushed and a lot of our existing characters were seemingly flattened to make them work

So maybe it’s just because I was coming off the disappointment in VII, but Jigsaw was an enjoyable movie to me! The pacing could be a little bit weird, but I also recognize that it was made like… 7 years after the last movie and they were probably trying to find a way to “modernize” the franchise and bring in new fans

The main thing I didn’t appreciate about this movie is how I felt it basically had to trick me for its twist to work. I absolutely LOVE the idea of “the game you’re seeing play out actually happened 10 years ago. We just didn’t say it was a flashback.” It’s such a classic saw thing to do and a lot of it a was foreshadowed. However stuff like the technology level and some of the fashion choices of the victims (I’m thinking specifically of the style of jeans Mitch wore) don’t always work with what would have been around in like 2001 or earlier. Maybe that’s me showing my age and I’m underestimating what was around in the late 90s/early 00s but it just made me a little mad because I felt I couldn’t just sit in the twist and instead had to justify why it didn’t make sense

I do however like the idea of Logan being someone who was saved from his trap by John. He was put in for making a careless mistake, only for John himself to make a mistake in his sedative dosage, not giving him an actual fair chance to fight for his life. It does help bridge the gap between the very obviously personal revenge John took in his first trap with Cecil towards the philosophy he spouts about the games being about appreciating your life later in the timeline

Genuinely though the whole movie I thought the killer was gonna be Detective Hunt, Halloran’s partner. I totally thought it was gonna be something similar to Logan where he wanted revenge on Halloran due to all the shit he had gotten away with. Also, the movie made such a point that “omg the body showed up at Eleanor’s studio/warehouse but only Logan and Eleanor knew about that place” but like….. Hunt followed them to that location. He could have gone in and placed the body there later to frame everyone and then told the cops about the workshop just to make sure the evidence was found. I was so convinced it was him because I felt like Logan was a bit too obvious for most of the movie lol

I liked the shotgun barn game. Very good early Saw trap/game. Short, sweet, and gets the lesson across

Logan’s reveal was hard as fuck, I don’t care what anyone says. I already made a post about how that scene is full of banger lines but it bears repeating: “I am him” “You have a choice: scream or don’t” “I speak for the dead” like okay sir go off

Logan certainly isn’t the most interesting apprentice or character, but I truly think that’s only because we don’t get to see him as an apprentice very much. From everything I’ve seen, he does not come back for either of the next two movies which I think is such a shame because there’s something to explore here with him being the first apprentice! With him being moreso an equal to John, teaching him part of his philosophy that’s so iconic about him, that’s a different apprentice dynamic from what we’d seen before and ahhhh I just wanna know the direction they would have taken this guy

Also makes me curious how much the other apprentices knew about each other. Amanda and Hoffman obviously interacted, but did anyone know about Logan? Was he just like “none of my business” when shit was going off the rails after John died? I want answers on how the Jigsaw apprentice relationships operate lmao

Overall, not the best Saw Saturday showing but yknow what, they can’t all be bangers. At the very least these movies have given me something to chew on and I also still enjoyed myself a lot. Saw, they could never make me hate you even if they’re doing the most with it!!!

I’m hopeful that my friend and I will be able to watch both Spiral and Saw X next week and then we’ll officially be through all of them and I won’t have to worry about any more spoilers! Hooray!

How the Durin heirs would react to you coming out as trans

(Also a little to how they’d react to someone misgendering you, so don’t read if that makes you uncomfortable)

Characters: Thorin, Fili, and Kili

A/N: my dysphoria is really bad so I wrote this to cope. I’m FTM so I wrote it from that perspective. I would say enjoy but there’ll probably be at least one person who’ll call me a slur for this 🤷‍♂️

Thorin Oakenshield

Telling Thorin would come with a small panic attack before hand

The only emotion you’ve seen the king express is anger

It doesn’t help that finding a minute alone with him was damn near impossible with his kingly duties pulling him away every chance you get

But eventually you get him alone and after a couple minutes of silence, you tell him

“Thorin, I’m trans”

There’d be a couple seconds of silence before he responds, “oh, okay. So what should I call you”

You’d give him your chosen name and he’d nod, “I think that fits you better”

Before you could say anything else, he’d be called away for something else.

But before he went off to solve whatever fire needed to be put out, he’d put a hand on your shoulder “I’m proud of you, thank you for telling me.”

He really wouldn’t show it, but he’d be extremely happy that you trusted him enough to tell him.

And god forbid anyone misgender you, because Thorin’s death glare would scare the shit outta them

He wouldn’t even need to threaten or correct them

He’d just appear behind you and give the look and suddenly whoever it was is immediately apologizing

Fili

Ahhh Fili, my little lion, he’d be sweet, kind and just overall the best

You’d be a little nervous about coming out, but if you could trust anyone to come out, it would alway be Fili

Coming out to him would be pretty casual though, like after a night of some drinking and just the two of you hanging out, you’d just come out with it, “Fili, I’m trans”

He’d do a little double take, not really expecting you to say that. But then he’d give you a smile to comfort you

“So do you have a new name I should call you?”

He’d also give you a huge hug

Then in private, he’d read up on it just to figure out how to be a better ally

Now if someone were to misgender you, he’d immediately correct them, “I think you mean he”

And if the asshole kept insisting, then Fili would threaten them

He’d want to immediately comfort you and as soon as he made sure you were okay, he’s get you a drink

Kili

Kili is the literal definition of “he’s a little confused but he’s got the spirit”

Telling Kili would be a spur of the moment, drunken discussion, the two of you so intoxicated that you could hardly stand straight

“Hey, hey Kili. I gots a secret to tell you,” you’d pause to drink some more, “I’m trans”

He’d look at you kinda confused “that’s the one where you change genders right? So does that make you a boy?”

You’d laugh “yep, I’m a boy, just like you”

The very first thing Kili said to you when you first met was “so pretty girl, you gotta name?”

So obviously he’d have to change it up

“So handsome boy, you gotta name” and you’d both start giggling and you’d tell him him your new name

But in all honesty, I think Kili might mess up with your pronouns every once in a while

But never on purpose, and he’d immediately correct himself and apologize to you for it

Now Kili is very impulsive so if anyone purposefully uses the wrong pronouns then they’d better hope Kili doesn’t here

Kili’s an archer and has incredible aim, so he’d take the nearest sharp object and throw it right past the person face

“If you ever call him that again, the next one goes between your eyes” he’d stomp right next to you and glare at whoever (not as scary as Thorin but still)

“I'm not going to stop poking you until you give me some attention!”

AO3 Link - Bungo Stray Dogs Selfship / Yumeship Masterlist

Fandom: Bungo Stray Dogs

Characters: Osamu Dazai, Annette 'Ann' Droste-Hühlshoff (OC)

Pairing: Annzai (Ann/Dazai)

Words: 600

An angry Ann. Usually not a pleasant sight and for most it isn’t. They would hate when she gets all sour, glaring ever so deadly and ready to go onto a murdering spree. Well, that is only if you piss her off the wrong way. You gotta be really insulting for that, the lowest of the low. You had to know how to play your cards right to get under her skin, but just enough that she won’t loathe you. Then it’s lots of fun and you get to see her cheeks puff up and she glares right at you with this pouty stare of hers. She wants to do something so badly but knows it’s not anything worthy of throwing a fist over. She is at the literal brink of exploding, so very close, and yet… She can’t. It was such a sight to watch, very close to Kunikida being at the end of his own wits yet equally entertaining if not more.

And who was Dazai if he had not taken the chance when he saw it? Lucky him, he got to see the ever so pouty Ann. So he thought that she might not mind, one of his fingers just going ahead and poking one of those squishy cheeks over and over, perhaps having too much fun with it. He couldn’t help but grin after all with each poke, even humming alongside that mere motion. When one of the cheeks was squished, he just went on ahead. And yet…

“I’m on my shift y’know…” She grumbled, trying to move away yet chose not to. Him holding her back? Nonsense, he wasn’t doing anything to her. Ann could move away whenever she wanted! But she chose not to. That’s suspicious, isn’t it? Oh how Dazai had every intention to not let her live this one down!

“Aww, come on. Don’t be like that. No other customers are here.” He responded, no sign nor intention of stopping. He was just having the time of his life feeling those very squishy cheeks, And he could feel them puffing up when hearing his ever so cheerful voice tell her the fact. It was the truth, right now had not been a very busy time and thus this was nothing too bad. And again, Ann chose to stay there. So this is technically her fault if you really think about it.

“Cut it out already. This isn’t funny.” She countered, almost hissing. In fact, this was when she finally acted, turning her head and nearly biting into his finger. Yet he pulled away just as quickly, making sure that she would not bite his finger off. Ok, maybe not off but at least that it won’t hurt. Besides, seeing her a little more angry was not a sight he was going to say no to.

“Haha, a feisty one.” He only chuckled which made one of their eyelids only twitch. And yet, he seemed unfazed. Essentially it just ended with them glaring at another for some time before they suddenly turned away with a huff, having not much else to say it seemed.

“I just wanna do my work. Increase your own tab in peace.” She added before walking off to another table. Dazai only looked as she was walking, the grin not fading for some time. It was fun messing with Ann, sure. Lots of fun. But there was also… He’ll need to test the waters first to see if it is true or not. So until then he’s just going to have as much fun as possible messing with Ann.

[invisible-pink-toast]

was rewatching 7x19 empty places and that scene where they throw buffy out of her own house makes me SO MAD (spike is totally right, they are sad sad ungrateful traitors) but with keeping some of the less-than-stellar writing choices of s7 in mind i can see where it came from.... for most of the characters

the potentials: are scared, are dying, don’t have superpowers. they nearly died again and have connected more with faith then buffy so i can understand them questioning buffy’s leadership. unfortunately they all conveniently forget that the only reason any of them are alive is because buffy took them in and protected them, let them stay in her house & eat her food (but the way kennedy and rona are written here is very ungrateful and aggressive - hello writers, why did you have to write the only woc in the room as the “bad guys”??)

xander: literally just went through an incredibly traumatising, painful and life altering experience in a battle that was led by buffy. so i think he gets a pass here. also he has often disagreed with buffy (usually relating to spike or angel) but definitely disagreed with her last time there was an awful publicly-gang-up-on-buffy in her living room in ‘dead man’s party’ so it’s actually pretty in character

giles: as much as i love giles in seasons 1-5 (with all his flaws and complications) the way he’s written in s6-7 is so inconsistent and ooc. i think spike hit the nail on the head with the fact that giles is feeling “outdone” and unneeded by buffy, so him being fine with taking away her leadership sucks (and s1-5 giles wouldn’t stand for it) but the way he’s written here... it makes sense. 

faith: doesn’t outright challenge buffy’s leadership, but does step up and question what’s happening which... is honestly pretty fair. she is a slayer too. she’s actually the slayer rn. but buffy not trusting faith is also pretty fair (although after willow... a little inconsistent). faith went evil and then mia so next in line or not buffy had to pick up her slack. there was always going to be tension between two slayers with leading, i feel like faith was quite calm and strategic here. she also specifically says she doesn’t want to be leader but no one listens to her 

anya: was dissapointed with anya here - her speech doesn’t even make sense. but given that buffy (correctly) tried to kill her when she was a vengeance demon, it’s easy to see that anya would be a little vengeful. there’s hints of this throughout the season, but post-ep5 they don’t really let anya be anything more than comic relief, which is a shame because if there was more build up (and a speech that made sense) i could really see why she’d oppose buffy here

robin wood: buffy literally said she’d kill him if he went after spike again. complicated because spike one of the team’s best fighters who they’ll need, and someone buffy cares about, but to wood spike’s just the vamp that killed his mom. so i get where he’s coming from. he’s also very chill in this scene. 

the two characters who i just can’t understand here are: 

willow: huh? what? “With everything that’s happened I… I’m worried about your judgement.” willow you turned evil and tried to kill all your friends and destroy the world. and buffy didn’t give up on you! you literally have no right to question other people’s judgements??? 

could’ve made more sense if they’d kept up this thread from ‘selfless’ - ‘I’m really sorry for letting you down / So I can’t do everything- but I should at least be able to do something. / But you need help, Buffy. I know you, and I know you’ll never admit it, but you need help.’ If Willow was coming from a place of concern for Buffy I could get it. Or if they’d built up Willow’s relationship with Faith, the similarities in their arcs, and Buffy’s distrust of Faith could put doubt in Willow’s view of her relationship with Buffy. but they didn’t. so it’s very left field for willow to suddenly not support buffy. 

and of course... 

dawn!!!! 

dawn what are you doing????? 

“Then you can’t stay here. Buffy, I love you. But you were right, we have to be together in this. You can’t be a part of it. So I need you to leave. I’m sorry. This is my house too.”

i?????

i will never understand this. i know a lot of people hate dawn - but i actually love her! i think she’s a great character!! sure she has her moments, but she’s been through a lot of trauma and the writing gets iffy with other characters throughout the seasons too. but i just don’t understand dawn here. 

she has not always had buffy’s back - because dawn’s a teenager and she didn’t always understand what was going on. but dawn knows exactly what’s going on here?? 

this is the sister who defied everyone and refused to let dawn die - and sacrificed herself instead. the sister who came back from the dead and had to put herself back together one piece at a time. the sister who had to smile through her grief and take on a shitty job so that she could be dawn’s guardian and pay the bills. like the last big buffy-dawn moment was in ‘him’ when buffy fought through the love spell and once again risked her own life and saved dawn’s

so dawn betraying buffy here comes out of nowhere! 

when i saw this for the first time and everyone was on buffy, and dawn finally stood up, i was so relieved. i thought someone would finally be on buffy’s side. for dawn to kick buffy out of their house is even more extreme then the others wanting faith to lead. i just don’t get it. it feels very ooc and is never resolved. 

so i’m just going to pretend that instead of andrew going with spike - dawn is the one who goes with him!

that honestly makes sense. buffy would want dawn away from danger, she trusts dawn with spike. also then we would get dawn-and-spike scenes!! because i love their relationship! and s7 ruined and then forgot about it!! so they can make up and reconnect. 

and then dawn wouldn’t be there for the coup. because if a well-written dawn was there when everyone betrayed buffy, she would’ve been throwing hands and following her sister out the door. also with willow her not supporting buffy is either properly built up, or she is the only one to support buffy and is outvoted. and i can see andrew just not saying anything because (despite being a murderer) he’s kind of nonconfrontational lmao

so then when spike and dawn get back to the house, they can both be shocked and outraged. and then either spike can leave dawn there (because someone with sense needs to be around to defeat the apocalypse) or dawn comes with him to find buffy and we get some quality buffy-dawn-spike in their own weird little family unit moments. dawn could even leave the room for spike to give buffy his big speech in private. 

but dawn would never betray her sister.

I don’t know your opinion on bottom lwj (maybe you like it or have no problem with it) I personally hate it with a burning passion, not even from fetishized point of view. But because it literally goes against how the character is in canon. Regardless, I usually just block that tag in ao3, but now i come back to tumblr after not logging in like almost a year and one of the first things i see is a freaking fan art of JC supposedly doing LWJ (is not shown explicitly) and WWX looking and being supportive and i just wanted to throw up. Literally felt like someone hit me with a pokemon psychic attack, i of course blocked the account and the bottom lwj tag here (something I didn’t even think i had to do) but i still can’t erase that image out of my brain so i had to rant to someone. Since you seem like someone really nice and you’re always amazing when answering asks here i am. If this ask makes you uncomfortable please feel completely free to delete it and forget it.

Hello Anon!

Aww, well thank you 😙 that's very sweet of you to say.

So firstly, before I tell you my opinion - I actually know the image you are referring to and I did the exact same thing when the post assaulted my eyes. I mean, everyone has their ships but come on! WX and JC?! No thanks.

As for your question, I have no majorly strong opinion on bottomji. I have read a few fanfics that have worked out alright. Mostly YLLZ era WWX meets extremely horny and willing 'self-sacrificing' virgin LWJ 'taking one for the team' - which were quite funny. But overall I do find it a little strange, because by making LWJ 'bottomji' people tend to make WX somewhat out of character one way or the other.

The reason I do not have a particularly strong opinion on LWJ being the bottom, is because it's kind of implied in the extras that they may well have done such things during their very active and passionate sex life already.

Seeing that he’d nearly hit his limit, Wei Wuxian laughed heartily and kissed his lips. “Er-gege, what haven’t we done? Why are you still so shy?”

7S translations - From Dawn Till Dusk extra

To me, the above certainly implies they've done a lot more than we have witnessed and switching would certainly come into that.

Also, I actually think LWJ would do anything for WWX, if he should ask. Including switching things up every now and then if his dear husband wished.

Overall, I don't think LWJ switching positions on occasion is necessarily out of character, if done properly and the fanfic authors stay true to how the characters actually are and would react during such acts. For example, LWJ still being the more dominant one out of the pair. Just because he's bottoming doesn't mean he's suddenly going to be submissive.

That being said, the image you and I saw is of course just completely out of character! JC is homophobic for a start! It just wouldn't happen. Ever. Even if JC was interested in some strange alternative universe. WX just wouldn't! I'm also convinced that WX would not want to, nor be willing to engage in sex with anyone else, even a threesome or some voyeuristic partner swap - or whatever the hell that image was?!

Wangxian are too wrapped up in each other, too completely obsessed with each other for anything else. Not to mention LWJ would drink so much vinegar he would pickle! And I don't think WWX would fare much better, LWJ is his and I don't think he'd be willing to share either!

I can understand why you might find it a bit odd seeing the roles switched around, but I do think it's something that could possibly be an occasional occurrence in canon because of the lines I mentioned above. Though I do love their dynamic in the novel and that is definitely what I prefer. Overall, we all have different preferences and opinions I guess ☺️

Finally, my dear anon...please go and read your favourite fanfic or browse through some gorgeous Wangxian art to cleanse yourself of the image which assaulted your senses. It's what I did and I feel much better now lol!

Hope you have a lovely day 🥰

#mdzs #mo dao zu shi #wangxian #wei wuxian #lan wangji #mdzs novel #anon ask #answered ask #wangxian switching it up every now and then #there's only one person who could top LWJ... and that's his husband #same goes for WWX of course!

So you posted these asks a while ago, but I didn’t get to ask then, so, if you still want to, could you maybe do

ice cream: are there any foods your character cant eat?

carsick: does your character get motion sickness:

greasy spoon: how does your character's stomach react to junk food?

thanksgiving: how much can they eat without feeling sick? how much can they eat without GETTING sick?

for Quinn and Caine? 🥰

I absolutely love your writing and all your ocs. I hope you have a nice day ❣️

omg anon thank you so much for asking!! had so much fun with this hehe

Ice Cream

Caine: okay so this man can eat pretty much anything, and he has always prided himself on the fact that he has no food intolerances and no allergies. he does have some pretty strong opinions on some foods though, and he will refuse to eat them not because of getting sick but just because he's picky.

Quinn: he is also fine with any food, when he was younger he had a little experience with eating too much dairy but that was just because he ate too much in one sitting and he got a belly ache, so he doesn't have any intolerances or allergies either.

Carsick

Caine: righty, he gets very seasick unless he takes those seasickness pills. like, he knows he's gonna get sick unless he takes them exactly an hour beforehand or else he's going to get on the boat and immediately lose his shit. he's also scared of the ocean. but yeah, shaking, difficulty walking, vomiting the whole shebang.

Quinn: he gets plane sick, or airsickness whatever you wanna call it, so he likes to travel by car a lot instead of flying. thankfully he doesn't often fly anywhere since he likes driving, but when it is absolutely necessary he dreads it so much. he panics a lot beforehand so it makes it worse and then he gets on the plane and is literally shoving his head in a paper bag the entire time.

Greasy Spoon

Caine: can eat junk food in moderation. the normal amount people would eat yanno, but sometimes he can't help himself and his stomach responds with those greasy gurgles and is bloated for a few hours afterwards. it doesn't stop him from eating it though, especially when he gets his belly rubbed for his misery.

Quinn: can handle junk food easy as, he's always been sporty and one of the traditions was to get junk food after a game so his stomach is used to it ig. his stomach feels full for a while though and he often skips dinner if he had it for lunch because it's too much for his stomach.

Thanksgiving

Caine: he can eat quite a fair amount before feeling sick, whenever he's eating a big meal he eats it slowly and makes sure to not overdo it all at once. as soon as he hits his mark though, he immediately puts down his utensils and stops, maybe nibbling some crumbs but he doesn't risk it. and continuing from this, he sometimes doesn't feel the effects of his overindulgence until it's too late and the nausea is tingling at his jaw and he has to quickly excuse himself from the table. so it does take a lot for him to get sick but it happens suddenly and doesn't give him much breathing room.

Quinn: he is a big eater and the amount of food he can eat before feeling sick is a lot more than Caine. when Caine stops, Quinn can sometimes eat a little off his plate and not feel ill. it sort of hits him after he's finished though, the heaviness in his belly will morph into nausea a little after his meal, making him feel icky and sick. he finally throws up when he's been grazing all day and then eaten a full meal on top of that, so a whole bunch of different foods and too much of them will cause him to run to the nearest toilet to puke his guts up.

and that's it, this was so fun lol. i can take requests on any of these 'scenarios' too lol

4, 12, 21, 22, 25, 31 for Ven! :3

oooh so many, thank you <3

4: Has your character ever witnessed something that fundamentally changed them? If so, does anyone else know?

sorry having an autism moment right now, but i don’t think she ever just witnessed something so monumental that it changed her; she was a part of the whole situation. is this question okay with that or does it mean purely witnessing something?? anyways, i’m just gonna try to answer this now. when ven was teenager and freshly escaped from a dangerous household, she was living in the streets of nerosyan and making her money with shitty one-woman plays or other stuff like that (and the occasional pickpocketing job) on the street. even though her acting skills can’t be described as anything more than mediocre, she became fairly popular, because most of her stuff was absolutely bonkers and therefore entertaining. a few months later after she got caught trying to rob someone, she got super emotional and her kineticist fire powers flared up for the first time ever. and uhm. burned down A LOT. most of the people who came to watch her every single day suddenly turned on her and wanted “the insane demon peasant girl” to be executed. (she got saved by ursula) i think realizing that all of these people saw her as nothing but a little puppet, just like she sees others, strengthened her worldview a lot; leading to her seeing herself as even less of a person. does anyone else know? she tells reg about her past eventually, but it takes years. he literally has to pull the tiniest details out of her lol. ven doesn’t talk about herself at all; sometimes even making little jokes out of it by telling people different and all wrong stories about her past.

12: In what situation was your character the most calm they’ve ever been?

lol ven is almost always calm and relaxed. there could be literal dragon about to breathe fire on her and she would just be like “👍” (i do think she’s a lot calmer than usual when reg is around though; she feels a lot safer with him)

21: If something tragic or negative happens to your character, do they believe they may have caused or deserved it, or are they quick to blame others?

ven is fucking terrible at processing traumatic events; she doesn’t put the blame on herself or others, she just completely shuts the memory of it out of her mind and tries to forget it. has terrible breakdowns every few months that she makes sure no one sees, then pretends like nothing happened and goes on like before.

22: What does your character like in other people?

just be fucking crazy interesting. that’s it. if you want ven to consider hanging out with you you have to make sure that she won’t get bored. regongar being a loud, aggressive, violent, mentally unstable, funny and hedonistic mess of a person certainly made it easier for him to get with her lol. (i interpret this as like. getting her to hang out with you. criteria for people who want to seduce her are here)

25: How quick is your character to suspect someone else? Does this change if they are close with that person?

ven does not care about like. most things. she doesn’t put in the effort to suspect people. she throws a coin for stuff like that. (yes the queen of the stolen lands throws coins for important decisions. GREAT.) it does change with people (person. it’s just reg lol) she is close with, because reg is uhm. not the brightest sometimes. so when someone who she told him was like. mildly annoying her gets brutally murdered she’ll know it was him. but then again it’s not like he’s trying to keep it a secret; he always tells her about it with pride.

31: Describe a scenario in which your character feels most comfortable.

you ever have so many thoughts about a character but then your mind goes blank on a question. so i hated everything i wrote for this one and can’t think of anything good right now 😐 curse you brain!!! i’m very sorry if i think of something better i’ll let you know.

#thank you the ask! #oc: ven #aeoncoded #sorry don’t know why the formatting is weird on this one

💖🎯🤲

brizz my love, as with all things I do, I tried to make this as short as possible and I failed miserably aksdjfhlkasdjf i hope you don’t mind

💖 What made you start writing?

In terms of, like, writing in general, I don't really know what made me start! I was always writing stories, but I really got into writing towards the end of middle school, and I think I "finished" my first story in eighth grade, when I had an English teacher who made us write a journal entry every day, and instead of writing anything about myself, I wrote a story about a character (i think she was a mermaid? I can’t remember)(also $50 to whoever can guess my favorite coping mechanism 💀). But, after middle school, I had a bit of a falling out with writing, and I put myself in a position to either do engineering & math & science related stuff, or do writing related stuff. Idk why I thought I couldn't do both, but obviously, I ended up becoming an engineer, and while I wrote a little bit in high school, I completely gave up writing in college.

Then, covid happened at the end of my senior year of college, and I suddenly had, like, a renaissance lmao. I had nothing to do and so much time to do it, and then I ended up watching the first season of Outer Banks nine times through (yes I know I’m insane, but we move), showing my family and then various friends during zoom parties, and I became obsessed with figuring out Kiara's story. I had a doc full of questions based on throw-away lines and I don't know when it turned from "conspiracy theory about kiara carrera's background" to "actual legitimate story (kind of)", but it helped me A LOT when I was going through the early pandemic. So, I guess, obsessing over Kiara Carrera got me back into writing?? lmao. also having a lot of feelings over the pandemic and being locked in my hometown and isolated from my college friends while being much, much closer to my middle/high school friends?? idk. I clearly had a lot of feelings to wrestle with tho aksjdfhlkasjdf

🎯 Have any of your readers accurately guessed major plot points? Care to share which?

LMAO yes!! I think almost everyone guessed just about every plot point in pltc, which is very expected when I was literally writing it to fit as well as it could into canon. I also had a few other fics where I read people's comments like "ah yes at least my foreshadowing works" 💀 I think there were a lot of those comments especially with like daisies underneath! 

🤲 Would you please share a snippet of a wip?

for you, Brizz, a snippet from my upcoming fic for the music festival au space on my bingo card!

There’s something kind of thrilling about having him so close. She knows her makeup is beyond fucked, and her hair is in disarray, and she has a string of plastic gems trailing down her cheek that are worse off than they were last night, but it doesn’t matter. The music is too loud for them to maintain the sort of distance that she would normally expect from a complete stranger, and he leans in close, his blue eyes fixed on her with a piercing gaze.

She doesn’t know a lot about him, but she can sense how momentous it is to capture all of his attention for any period of time, like her body had cataloged every distraction he had found throughout the day and now marvels at the singularity of his attention. 

#ask games #brizz my bestie #re: getting back into writing #I don't deal with anything upfront but i do deal with it in writing aksjdfhlkasjdf #my grandpa died earlier this summer and obviously i was heartbroken and instead of facing that head on #i wrote 'the luckiest bastard alive' faster than I have written anything in my life #so #I love writing #and I do write when Im happy and things are going well #but I write particularly fast i need to process shit #ya know? #no? #just me? #that's on unhealthy coping mechanisms! #and when I say I have hoards of unfinished stories and planned but halfwritten novels #I mean that #a conservative guess would put the number of unfinished stories in the hundreds #I remember being in eighth grade and the most popular girl in my class's mom heard I loved to write and she asked what I wrote #and like ????? idk maam #words? #and so I was like scrambling for a way to describe the very intricate and bat shit crazy shit my 13 year old brain had thought up #and I was like #uh. romance #and she was like #ROMANCE #like miss girl don't get excited #I was a full 13 year old #even 25 year old me is painfully unspicy

Hogwarts Legacy

I was actually pleasantly surprised at the quality; usually games based off of movies or books tend not to be great, but the studio actually threw it quite a lot of effort behind this, and while I wouldn't say it's amazing it's very well done. The premise is the player is attending late 1800s Hogwarts, so the only characters from the books are the ghosts and Phineas Nigellus Black. No explanation is given as to why you're suddenly starting school as a fifth year, your background, or why you specifically can do magic no one else can, because it is first and foremost a fantasy, that you yourself are there.

There would be several things I would change about it though, starting from fighting. Although the battle system is streamlined, and fun, it's easy and you overlevel fairly quickly. I wasn't even trying to go out of my way to do sidequests or anything, but I found myself several levels above any enemy I was fighting. Even those equal to me weren't too much of an issue. That also may be due to the lack of variety in enemies--there's only seven types--so you learn the attack pattern for all of them early on. There are less spells than you'd expect as well, so although you can switch up your combos, you don't really need to.

The second is the map. There isn't one. You have a minimap, but what I would like to see is the whole fucking thing please. Literally when you click on "map" in the menu, an image of the castle pops up. That doesn't help me. I know, I know, it's hard to render a map with a layout like Hogwarts when there aren't any solid stories, but you could've rendered the interior of the whole thing and allowed to player to zoom in and out.

The third is the map itself. It is huge because they were mimicking the Scottish highlands. I've said it many times, I appreciate a large map but you really don't need it. I'm willing to let it slide in this case because I think the developers wanted wide room for flying on your broom or animals, which... yeah, that was pretty epic. However, if you are going to make it this large, you need rewards for exploration. I'll keep throwing Breath of the Wild out as an example because Nintendo did do a great job. In that game, wandering gave you shrines, Korok seeds, or even random sidequests. Here, there are Merlin trials peppered around the map, but the treasure vaults didn't feel like a reward because after the first few hours of play time the treasure was always shitty.

The fourth is sometimes shit didn't make any sense. If you didn't go to Hogsmeade with Sebestian, it's weird how he sacrificed himself in the library for you. Or if you did it the other way around, then it's odd how Natty is really into taking out Harrow considering she wouldn't've been in the Three Broomsticks. Or like why does Ollivander think his missing wand has anything to do with your missing pages. That's poor writing that with a bit of polishing would've been resolved. Also, explain that shit hovering over the Pensieve is a locket because no one could tell and it comes out of left field how characters are talking about this locket.

There are other small complaints, like how it can get glitchy (but often in a hilarious way), why are there giant spiders but Hagrid hasn't attended yet, how come there are random missions when I have to sneak out after hours but I do that all the time in regular gameplay, why did they only hire two voice actors for the player and then later digitally modified them, why does the menu have a pointer, how come there isn't a close Ravenclaw friend...

However I was pretty blown away by other aspects. I'll say time and time again I love environments and Hogwarts was a fucking delight. The developers took a large page from the movies, but there were plenty of unique areas. The first time I played I think I literally spent about three hours just wandering and staring at everything. The attention to detail was amazing. And it extended beyond Hogwarts. I mentioned before how large the map is, and going through Hogsmeade, the Forbidden Forest, standing on the buffs over the coast... It's a very visually attractive game and I felt like I was hiking back in Ireland.

The plot was actually pretty solid. Not amazing, but it was nice seeing how the choices in the past are affecting the present, and how everyone came together in the end. The characters are also interesting and memorable, even ones you just meet for one sidequest. I can still recall Arthur's unusual voice as he shares his treasure map with you, or Garreth experimenting with potions, or Nellie's enthusiasm for the Dedaelian keys, or Mr. Moon being an alcoholic, or Nerida trying to become an ambassador to the mermaids, or Imelda being a bitch. And I was always excited when the next chapter in Sebestian, Natty, or Poppy's storylines would pop up.

What was a great delight were the puzzles. Although not excessively hard, sometimes you really had to think and I feel it's something that a lot of video games aren't doing as much anymore. Sitting in front of a Merlin trial or standing in a treasure vault, contemplating what needed to be done, was something I haven't felt in a while.

The music was also lovely. The four dudes responsible, Chuck E. Myers, J. Scott Rakozy, Peter Murray, and Alexander Horowitz really tried emulated Williams' style. There were moments of silence that seem prevalent in video games nowadays, but mostly they tried to keep it flowing.

If you're a Harry Potter fan, definitely play this. If you're not and haven't read the books/watched the movies, I still say it's enjoyable experience. There are plenty of features I didn't cover, like capturing animals or decorating your own room. Good job guys, you fulfilled all of my childhood fantasies.

Heir of Fire by Sarah J Maas

My Rating 3.5/5

It is safe to say that I find this series far more enjoyable than I ever found ACOTAR. While the first half of this book dragged a lot, I understand that it was because there was a lot of world-building and set-up for upcoming books to be done. There was a lot of information thrown at you, and it's clear that it will all become relevant later. This book was definitely planned out better than ACOTAR as well and more thoroughly built. While the book's first half was slow, the second half was much more exciting. During several scenes, I perked up because I was like, 'oh shiiit'.  --

So in Crown of Midnight, it's revealed that Celaena is actually part fae and has really been Aelin Galathynius this whole time, the lost queen of Terrasen. She's headed over to Wendlyn under the ruse of assassinating the rulers over yonder, but instead, she goes to Mistward, where all the other half-faeries live to learn how to use her magic and get answers about the Wyrdkeys. The whole book is about Celaena working towards learning this information, but it's also about her journey of recovery. I appreciate that so much time is spent on her PTSD because it's very realistic after what she's gone through, but at the same time, it felt like we kind of went backwards. 

After Nehemia’s death, she was basically catatonic until she guessed who killed her(literally she sat up and was like gasp! it's grave!) and went and got revenge. After that, I naively assumed she was going to be a more active participant in this story and actually start making plans to do what Nehemia wanted for her from the beginning. Like this girl really orchestrated her whole death just to get Celaena to get off her ass, which…I hate, so much. This is actually a recurring theme in her life. People have to either sacrifice themselves to protect her or they have to get murdered to incite her to do anything. I wish she would just DO something already. 

As I said in my last review, I really think Nehemia would have added far more to this story than Chaol. Celaena is mourning Nehemia like she lost a lover, not a girl she befriended a few months ago. Because when you think of it, that is the truth of the matter. Nehemia and Celaena were only friends for a few months, and she is acting like she lost her other half. Yes, I’m bummed Nehemia died, too, I think it was pointless and a waste of a character but she and Celaena were not really all that close. At least not as close as Celaena seems to think they were. Sure, they ate breakfast in bed, and they told each other some hard truths, but it was because Celaena didn’t have anyone else. She deluded herself into thinking she had comrades in Adarlan when really she was surrounded by enemies the whole time. Nehemia lies to her constantly, Chaol is loyal to the king despite the fact that he’s helping Aedion, and Dorian, despite his kind heart, is the son of the man who destroyed everything. She should have been wary of these people from the beginning. 

I don’t feel bad for Dorian, Celaena or Chaol when it comes to their failed relationship. They were all idiots for getting involved with each other in the first place. The second Celaena leaves, Dorian moves on to the next best thing. A healer who’s already been fawning over him for years. Personally, I found Sorcha’s character entirely ridiculous. She seems so pathetic as a person. Does she not realize she is nothing more than a rebound for Dorian because he couldn’t be with Celaena? It took Celaena leaving the kingdom for him to even notice her. She’d been taking care of his wounds for months, and he didn’t even notice her then. Then he kisses her once and suddenly she’s ready to throw it all away? Nah, could never be me. I also think her being a spy was a mixture of predictable and also silly. Like, I saw it coming because it made no logical sense for someone with her past to choose to work for the king but then again, she is literally so inconsequential to the story it felt like it was added solely to further Dorian's male pain. This story had very little romance, which I actually liked a lot. If Celaena and Rowan had immediately gotten together I would've been annoyed. She has no business being in a relationship right now after all her trauma(just like Nesta had no business getting involved with Cassian when she did). 

Meanwhile, Chaol is sneaking around with Aedion, and honestly, they should just kiss and get it over with. Again, Chaol is about as exciting as mayonnaise, and his chapters could’ve been better put in the trash and replaced with chapters of Nehemia being a badass rebel queen and doing some cool shit in Eyllwe or, better yet, tricking everyone in Adarlan. Imagine if it was her working alongside Aedion to bring Adarlan down. Would much rather have read that. Also, the end when he goes to pick up Fleetfoot...WHAT HAS THAT DOG BEEN DOING THIS WHOLE BOOK? WASN'T DORIAN SUPPOSED TO BE LOOKING AFTER HER? HE'S TOO BUSY WITH HIS NEW GIRLFRIEND? 

Manon is…fine, I guess. The majority of her arc is about her posturing around the other witches and forging a bond with her flower-loving wyvern, Abraxos. I tend to find characters like Manon ridiculous. I love the idea of a formidable woman that is feared by all. I am always down for magical action women, but characters like Manon, who are meant to be "evil" and remorseless, almost always seem entirely overdone to me. Like the author is trying way too hard to make her seem scary and intimidating that she instead becomes really laughable and almost someone to mock. In my opinion, less is always more when trying to come off as someone who should not be fucked with. I know that the witches are merciless and don’t care for anything, but I was still super bothered by how mean she was to Abraxos. Like, he literally saved your life from Titus, you ungrateful anus. The least you could do is show some kindness to him. But I understand that’s not in her nature. That doesn’t mean I have to like it, though. Just be nice to the beasties.

Having said that, I like the conflict you see her going through. I like that it's clear she does have some emotions and is starting to care for her wyvern as well as Petrah, even. I'm curious to see her grow more and hopefully join team good guys. 

Going back to Celaena. So, she’s trying to get to Doranelle so she can finally get answers from her Aunt Maeve to save her kingdom. Well, Maeve is kind of species-ist and won’t let half-fae into her kingdom unless they prove themselves and so Celaena has to be trained to use her power. Prince Rowan(Celaena’s very distant cousin?) is tasked with training her, and his training methods are basically those abusive military strategies of just screaming in your face to do something and calling you a worthless POS for not being able to do that thing. I really don’t see how it’s helpful at all when Celaena is repeatedly telling him that she has no idea how to use her power. He never verbally gives her any instructions that might walk her through the process. If it’s supposed to be second-hand nature to her, why doesn’t he ever say that? Why doesn’t he ever give her any sort of help other than SHIFT YOU WORTHLESS COWARD?! SJM has a habit of making her male fae love interests take their female love interests on torture hikes, and I want to know why. What does SJM have against hiking and running? Cassian did this to Nesta, and now Rowan does it to Celaena. 

Now, right off the bat, Rowan is horrible to Celaena, and you don’t find out why until the end of part one. So, he’s supposed to seem like this total POS, and then when his trauma is revealed I guess I was supposed to be like ooooh no poor Rowan, I understand now. But here’s the thing, I don’t. Celaena made an incredibly shitty comment to Rowan, basically saying that the faeries deserved to get wiped out and Rowan punched her for it. Do I think that punch was warranted? Yes. She totally deserved it. But here’s the thing, Celaena is in her human form and therefore has the strength of a human. Rowan, when he punched her, had to hold back so as not to shatter her jaw, which tells me that he did not need to hit her at all. He could have just as easily said something equally shitty, and then they could both be toxic assholes that way. But no, his form of toxicity is physical violence. This is explained away that faeries are more primal and aggressive than humans, and while that makes sense due to the fact that they can shapeshift into various animal forms…I don’t find it a good enough excuse to not be upset by the physical abuse that takes place. 

Celaena bad-talks her own aunt and Rowan pulls her tongue, slams her into a tree and bites her with his weird vampire fangs. Sure, this finally gets her to shift, but it was still an incredibly odd, uncomfortable scene. Through the rest of part one, they come to some sort of understanding that they both are in a dark place and have dealt with extreme loss. Celaena lost her friend, and Rowan lost his mate and his unborn child. While this is sad, and it sucks, it’s still not a good excuse for his behavior. The difference between Rowan and Celaena is when Rowan tells this sob story to Celaena, he never apologizes, just gives her excuses and says maybe we can work toward finding peace or whatever together. Celaena, on the other hand, gets on her knees and apologizes to Emrys for hurting his feelings. I thought this was a little bit ridiculous as well, but at least she apologized. This is the same problem I had with Rhysand in ACOTAR. Instead of giving Feyre a genuine apology for abusing her Under the Mountain, he gave some excuses, and we’re supposed to shift the blame off of him and feel sorry for him instead. Nah, I don’t play that. We apologize when we hurt people and don’t just blame it on our trauma. 

When Celaena finally gains control over her shifting ability due to Rowan putting her friend in danger and she finally kicks his ass, I was like totally fine with it. You know why? Because they were on equal footing. It’s not someone with god-like strength fighting a puny little human. It is two people who are equal in strength brawling it out, and that’s when it’s hot to me. It’s like that scene in Losers with Zoe Saldana and Jeffrey Dean Morgan sexy fighting. They’re both capable fighters, they both have chemistry, and it’s hot. Sure, they’re trying to kill each other but it’s different because they’re at the same level. Idk, maybe I just don’t like being scared of the person who I’m gonna bone. I don’t really think being afraid my partner is gonna pull my tongue out of my face for saying something he doesn’t like is sexy. Maybe that’s just me, though. 

Now, towards the end of the book I did like their relationship a lot more. I like that they've come to some sort of understanding and they have a more solid friendship instead of this weird 'I'm your mentor who abuses you and you have to accept it' dynamic that they had. Again, I am so very glad that they didn't get together in this book. I'm glad that there was not a lot of romance in this book and it focused more on the magic and world-building. I think that Sorscha's plot could've been scrapped, and honestly Chaol's too. Dorian and Aedion's stories could have been combined and it would've come to the same conclusion in the end. 

BRING NEHEMIA BACK.
