What are some of your purly headcanons?? I just got supper obsessed with them lol
Yesss we love purly in this household here we go:
• they’ve been friends since they were pretty little just because they’re the same age, both greasers, etc. Even if they weren’t always super close, they kinda had each other’s backs like if Curly saw someone messing w Pony he’d give him a “fuck off or see what happens” kind of look or if Curly’s getting into some trouble Pony would try to distract him because school is no fun if Curly is suspended
• as they get older though, they become more friends, like proper friends who hang out and get up to stupid shit. Darry and Soda don’t love that Curly is who Pony chooses to hang out with, but at the end of the day, they’ve all done stupid shit too, and as long as Pony doesn’t get arrested or break his curfew, there’s not much they can really say
• how they got together was a very slow, unofficial progression. One day Curly asks if they should practice kissing on each other so they can be ready and Pony’s like yeah that sounds smart. So they’re each other’s first kisses and they continue to practice on each other so they can get better and better 😭
• one day Pony’s like “so have you kissed anyone else yet” and Curly’s like “nah you?” “Me neither” and it’s quiet for a few minutes before Pony goes “I like when we do tho” and Curly’s just like “yeah same” so they just keep doing it then
• I feel like they don’t really call each other boyfriends, but everyone that’s important to them knows they’re together. If we’re being realistic, they wouldn’t be able to act like more than friends in public so that plays a big role in it, but they don’t really mind because they’re not pda people at all and if they know they’re together, that’s what matters
• Curly uses anything but Pony’s real name. Baby Curtis and Ponybabe are probably the most frequently used
• when they’re not in public, they’re not super like affectionate, more just handsy. Always arms around the waist or on the hips when they’re sitting together or walking somewhere. They don’t hold hands that often but Pony likes linking pinkies. They like to lay in each other’s laps and argue over whose turn it is to do so 😭 Pony likes to do it while they watch tv bc Curly will rub his back or head and he looooves that. Curly likes to wrap his arms around Pony’s waist and bury his face in his stomach and take a nap like that
• making out all the time. Every single one of the gang, Tim, and Angela have walked in on them making out. It’s a canon event in their lives, could not be avoided. Curly and Pony have the audacity to not even be embarrassed they just go somewhere else to continue 😭
• Angela and Pony actually get along super well and whenever Pony is over Curly will yell at her for trying to steal him 💀💀💀 Angela is like bruh I do NOT want him
• then as soon as Pony leaves Angela has to listen to Curly just talk and talk about this kid like she cannot catch a break
• Tim likes Pony because Curly tends to stay out of trouble more now and also he just thinks Pony is a good kid
• overall Purly might not have the most conventional relationship but they love each other and at the end of the day that’s all that matters
#thank you sm for this!#the outsiders#ponyboy curtis#the outsiders headcanons#purly#curly shepard#papercut ship#asks

good morning y’all !! now that i’ve had time to sleep on the crossover… oh my god ?? and i mean that in the best way possible. this was everything to me omg
although there were some things i lowkey wish we could’ve seen (i.e., more kelly and voight tension, potential my miracle parallel with stellaride), not getting them honestly didn’t take away at all from how much i loved this? more thoughts below the cut bc i got very rambly (and spoilers i guess ??)
starting with stellaride bc they’re my lovelies, obsessed with literally all their scenes. the intro? perfection. stella telling kelly to be careful without knowing she would be the one in the most danger the whole time? o w. “stella kidd, report back right now”? O W. and the more i think about it, the more i’m almost kinda glad we didn’t get the my miracle parallel? i mean sure, the absolute emotional gut punch would’ve done wonders, but there’s something that feels so much more intrinsically them about refusing to say goodbye to each other (namely stella refusing) and instead maintaining that fierce hope that everything would sort itself out and they’d be back together. on top of that, their little reunion with kelly being like “let’s get out of here tonight” like YES please go on that goddamn vacation now you two deserve to go to cancún something awful. what we did get may not be as heavy of a punch, per se, but at least to me, it hit all the same, and my god was i a lowkey mess hearing kelly’s message to stella being what she told him that morning😭 “we gotta make the time” what if i collapse huh then what
i think this has the potential, judging by the promo as well as this article, to be such a good segue into them finally getting into the real deep conversations and i’m really curious to see how it plays out over the rest of the season. i know some people think there could be a “but…” to this, but even if there is, i don’t think it will be as major of one people might worry it could be. that said, will it be an easy path? definitely not. i know we’re about to get some semblance of drama before the end of the season (and i’m prepared)😭 but all things considered, we’re heading in the overall right direction !!
secondly, plouch. oh my god plouch. i haven’t gotten more emotional watching this show in so long than i did last night watching those two. mouch talking to trudy before she went under for surgery? nobody touch me i’m STILL recovering from that one😭 christian stolte the actor that you are WOW, he put 200% into that and it SHOWS
thank GOD tho she lived holy SHIT i was fucking petrified ripley and lenox were gonna come out and say she didn’t make it omg
just as i predicted too, burzek gave me emotional damage !! ruzek refusing to say goodbye and being insistent he would be home for dinner ?? letting mak pick it ?? the way kim literally BOOKED IT to him at the end and he picked her up ?? i can’t stop watching that it’s so so perfect😭
stella and ruzek was such an incredible duo too, i need more of them asap actually. the way they balanced each other out and relied on each other and just worked so seamlessly as a team by the end of it, despite not being super familiar with each other? SO GOOD
what stella did to duffy when he had her at gunpoint??? first off i’m stunned that happened i wasn’t expecting that shit literally at all and god was i living in fear for a few moments there. but secondly, i’m floored omg, STELLA KIDD THE WOMAN YOU ARE. we all knew how badass she was before this, but that was something else. i think i just fell in love with her all over again but i digress
also one last thing, pascal’s reaction to stella not answering ?? i could go on and on about kelly’s obviously but pascal’s honestly caught me by surprise considering how frequently they’ve butt heads this entire season. the genuine concern ?? OUCH. there’s hope for them yet !! seeing that side of him, even if brief, was a good emotional punch. that mf truly does fascinate me as a character. will be thinking about that entire sequence for a while
i won’t keep yapping; i think all of that about sums up what i can manage cohesively LMAO. was this crossover perfect? no, but you truly can see just how much love and care and effort went into this entire thing from everyone involved. and i think as much as i do love the infection crossover, i gotta say, i think this one takes it as number one for me. i will be watching all three episodes so many more times
one chicago my beloved <3
#not even gonna mention the ‘including my wife’ thing y’all already KNOW#also how absolutely snippy he was the literal entire time up until they were reunited holy shit#actually obsessed with that#those two mfs BETTER have gone straight on that vacation i can’t reiterate how much they deserve it#anyways if i think of more thoughts later i’ll share them but this is what i got for now <3#kelly severide#stella kidd#stellaride#adam ruzek#kim burgess#burzek#randall mcholland#trudy platt#plouch#chicago fire#chicago med#chicago pd#one chicago

Now that CN is over I need more fics to read (I say as if I'm not in the middle of rereading CN and plan to reread ITYSG(AINLY) again because I'm literally obsessed with your fics). Do you have an recs? Also what's your favorite fics/comfort fics (you can include your own)? I always find it interesting to know what the authors of my favorite fics like to read when they aren't writing.
other than my other fics (babysitting in the apocalypse is my other zhongchi fic), i do have a some zhongchi recomendations! sadly i cannot actually go to my bookmarks atm nor provide direct links. i also don't really remember the authors' names of most of them? and you'd have to like.... save them for later, what with ao3 being down and all;; but here are some off the top of my head if you want to get planning:
(once ao3 gets back up i'll update this list with proper links and the authors' names and maybe more recomendations since i do have many more i just can't remember,,)
○ entirely out of spite by Bgtea - i generally assume everyone's already reading this one given how big it is (and how it was kind of my inspiration for cyanide even tho i never said it), but if you're not, holy shit are you in for a good one. literally anything bgtea makes is wonderful. this one is an au based on the premise of a different story, but you don't need any knowledge whatsoever of it to enjoy and understand eoos (tho consider it if you like the premise, bc it's also really good). the rundown is- a mondern ajax dies and wakes up in the body of tartaglia, the antagonist of genshin impact, a game he'd been playing before kicking the bucket. he is tasked by a weird isekai-anime looking menu to fill in the shoes of the antagonist or else, but he's not technically stopped from altering the story just a tiny bit or being ooc, so he goes about trying to play the tartaglia role without meeting the same end as tartaglia (who dies ingame). it's such a good fic i cannot recommend it enough - it's not complete yet, but the wait for each chapter is more than worth it, and bgtea always does an insane amount of research for everything they post.
○ literally any other zhongchi fic by Bgtea. there's this short one about pulcinella or capitano (i can't remember, it might've been pantalone) selling pictures of childe to increase morale in the fatui (something something pr strategies), that one is hilarious. there's another one about zhongli getting stuck as a dragon and childe taking care of him as the world slowly goes to shit from rex lapis being missing (a comment pointed out it might be called "ajax' adventure with dog-lizard" and it sounds about right for me). another one they have is the autumn winds are sighing i think. that one was posted WAY back, some of the info is a bit outdated, but it's still so, so good. i can't remember what it was all about, but i do remember it involves zhongli going to snezhnaya to meet childe's siblings. the pining and tension on that one is off the roof. i should read it again,,,
○ after everything by Amanveth (i think that's how their username is written,,) - literally palate cleansing fluff. there's really good angst as well but it's overall just very sweet and soft, very much a feel-good fic. it's about zhongli and childe going back to being friends after the events of the archon quest and slowly realizing they're in love. it's still ongoing but it updates shockingly fast, and it's a nice little thing to read before going to sleep.
○ the white cicada society by clementinesgulag. still ongoing i think, but i have paused reading it for reasons unrelated to the fic itself, so i can only really atest to the frist arc of it? but holy fuck is the first arc good. the angst is godly in this one, and i'm always a sucker for a good horror mystery. this one is about the gritty and slow reconciliation of post-archon quest zhongli and childe as they investigate a series of awful murders and terrifying paranormal shit (i'm pretty sure) going on in the city. (it might be revealed to not be paranromal later in the fic as that partiuclar plotpoint hadn't yet resolved when i paused it at the end of the first arc, but i wouldn't know. wouldn't make it any less good if it wasn't tho)
○ death became him by Merianon. also still ongoing i think, but part of the many fics i have paused reading for reasons unrelated to them (i have... way too many saved,,,). this one is about childe going back in time after dying and waking up as a god, and the fic starts there, so it's about how the events of the game go with childe as a god and not in the fatui. i can't remember all that much about it tbh, but i remember i really liked it, the concept was so interesting. i'm waiting for it to end.
○ a sight for sore eyes by ToumeiKyoudai. still ongoing afaik, but i paused reading it as of very recently (again for reasons outside of the fic). this one is the events of the game except childe is legally blind. you have no idea how interesting and hilarious this fic is, the premise is so simple but it's so nicely executed. i can't really say all that much more about it since it's basically just that- it's a retelling but childe's blind. and he's so fucking funny. it's all so fucking funny, and the worldbuilding is stellar, and i just really really like it i can't explain why exactly. it's not a comedy! but fuck it's so entertaining.
i have so many more that i wish i could put here but i'm not 100% confident in their titles nor which fic was which (happens when you have a ton bookmarked but have paused reading a lot of them), so i don't want to risk saying this fic is one thing when in reality it's something else completely different,,,
these last two i put below for reasons i'll explain in each of their blurbs, but they're still as recomended as those above!
○ lungs full of roses, by SecretlyACatLady. if this is the title (and i'm 99% certain it is, but i can't check), then this is hands down the BEST hanahaki angst i've ever read. i'm not kidding. this one is very specific in its angst tho, and i gather likely not what everyone is looking for in a hanahaki fic, but holy fuck. basically childe gets hanahaki here but knows he cannot afford to have anyone find out he has it (bc fatui) and also not that he died from it, i think? might be mistaking that particular plotpoint for another fic. anyway- he leaves liyue but zhongli goes to look for him bc he's confused and just wants to apologize for the whole tsaritsa's contract and all. it gets out of hand real quick when the ppl of mondstadt try to help by acting as pushy wingmen and it's so GOOD holy fuck. i've never liked when other characters try to push the main pair together and act all 'just kiss already we all know!' around them, and seeing it backfire as horribly as it could if it were a realistic scenario (tho enhanced bc childe) is so incredibly satisfying. the reason why i put it down here is 1) i'm not 100% sure that's the title and 2) if it hasn't been abandoned, it's been in hiatus for a while now. which is hearbreaking, but it's also such a good fic that i'd honestly recommend it regardless if only for the angst at the start. but i understand not everyone is in for something like that if it doesn't resolve/likely won't resolve (idk if it's abandoned tho but i understand that if a fic takes too long to update, people will fear the worst). so yeah,,
○ non-playable character, by Jouicifer. this one is here exclusively because i'm a sucker for horror mystery - it doesn't mean the zhongchi isn't good, but it's not as prevalent in the plot as in white cicada (another horror mystery), so i can't exactly put it with the other more zhongchi-centric fics? not that the zhongchi isn't here, but. hard to explain. this one is also hard to explain in general, i'm not sure if it's based on the premise of another story or if this is a highly-secific trope/sub-genre in china (i think?), but the author refers to it as 'unlimited flow', so look it up if you want to be sure. either way, much like with eoos, it doesn't matter if you know anything about whatever that might be to enjoy and understand the story. the rundown is childe and a bunch of other people are players in this sort of virtual-reality scenario hopper, where they get put in 'games' with other players where they can die (tho idk if die die irl as well). basically, in the newest scenario they get thrown into, it's a horror murder mystery about a haunted mansion, and their guiding npc is zhongli, whom childe has met in another scenario and whom he is an absolute simp for. god idk how to explain it, it's just so good; but you need to be there for the plot first and the ship second. the ship is there! it's just the plot takes presedence. but holy fuck is the plot good. the reason why it's down here, like lungs full of roses, isn't bc of the plot or the ship being secondary, but... well, it's also been in hiatus for a long while now. to this fic's credit in particular, it was in a long hiatus before, but updated! out of nowhere! and then it went into its current hiatus, so. again, i understand people don't like that, but i'm a patient person so i'm willing to keep it in my bookmarks for as long as it takes (and forever if it gets abandoned). it's just THAT good. and since there's not much horror murder mystery in this fandom (or in fics in general), i'll take whatever i can get. the mystery is good in this one, so it helps.
(edit: added some authors and a fic title, thank you archon-of-chaos and redwormonastring!)
#as soon as ao3 is up i'll look thru my bookmarks and correct anything i got wrong#and also add some more fics#i have a ton more that i really really like#i just can't remember their names with as much clarity as these ones#idk why it's not like i like these particularly more than some of those#i enjoy all equally#except non-playable character that one's probably my favorite#and eoos#anyway#thank you!#always happy to recomend fics

Hiii - wanted to say first thing first I love your art style, it's so dynamic and fun and those color palettes? Stunning ^^
And second thing second, just some food for thought if you ever want to get angsty about Jerry and Dean, coffee by Chappell Roan sounds like it was written about their break up specifically and I can't stop thinking abt it dndnden
*Cue me losing my mind*
Hiii- they say flattery gets you everywhere and turns out with me, it gets you animatics- jkjk but I do appreciate the kind comments ^^
I’ll put up the animatic separately and take the opportunity to leave the preamble here to keep the video post neat bc until someone tells me to shut up and just post art- I’m gonna ramble… So here’s the commentary you didn’t ask for along with my favourite panels:
First off- You turned me into a big time Chappell Roan listener which is great bc I need music recs to fix my listening habits before Spotify wrapped drops. My roundup last year was shameful… Red Wine Supernova is my new dish washing song.
Even tho it’s not the song’s vibe I kept the content as silly as I could for my own sanity. I don’t love getting too deep into the serious/sad side of M+L for a few reasons but I do find it all very interesting. Point being this song was too good to pass up doing something a bit bigger for.
Ngl tho- this did have me pulling out hair at multiple points. I never colour animatics, rarely even tone them- but you mentioned colour palettes and I was determined to deliver so pardon the messy colouring but (that was the tradeoff) I did not have it in me to stay in the lines. I’m choosing to be kind to myself and opt to call it an artistic choice and not midway burnout. And nothing was gonna get me to open after effects/premiere not even the janky ass golf ball OML this only makes sense if u watch the video.
There are parts of this I’m SO happy with and others I hate. I think it’s really obvious which sections I started losing steam on but overall I lowkey like the end product. Nothing I make will ever be good/perfect- this was one hell of a practice in accepting that lmao- but I can still be ok with the work problems and all yknow? I very nearly shelved this completely bc I got so worked up about the maybe 5 panels I dislike out of 106 total. Counting them was eye opening to ask myself: you’re gonna let that small a ratio stop you from sharing this after putting in days and days of effort? The insecurity goes deep and TBH getting asks has been a nice way of working through it since I post the art I make for answers no matter what only bc I KNOW someone out there wants to see it. It might not sound it but it’s actually quite positive.
Also, although I feel I’ve done my fair share of reading, I’m no expert. So if anything is really off point- sorry my bad (I won’t fix it tho bc I cannot physically stand to look at this another second lol)
I tried to stick to real things found in articles/books/photos/interviews etc bc outside of obviously fictional AUs I’m not super into making stuff up about them (and who needs to I mean the legit stuff is already insane enough) Sure I framed the events in specific ways to suit the song and some aspects are fictionalized (mainly bc the referenced written accounts lacked detail to draw 100% faithfully from anyhow) but otherwise I got my sources cited.
ANYWAYS… sorry for hijacking this answer I need to learn to chill out. Irl I’m a pretty reserved talker so you can tell I’m in a comfy place when I let loose and blather on endlessly lmao brevity is not a skill I possess.
You were probably expecting illustrations or smth but I hope what I came up with is still somewhat alright AND please don’t let my complaining fool you, I genuinely loved making this.
One FINAL Relevant Note: the line “nowhere else is safe every place leads back to your place” is gut wrenching. You’re so right about this song perfectly describing the break up. They always came back to each other and there’s something so devastating about that kind of haunting human connection.
OkAY I’m done promise- I thought I’d implode if I didn’t get all that out

I forget if I ever actually posted my Aubrey open mic performance but if you haven't seen it here it is!! This is the mic I went to with Scott back in July which was the first time he ever saw any of my comedy. I flubbed the order of a few sections and the microphone being taped to the stand threw me off but overall it was a good time. Also I have no idea why the audio pans weirdly with headphones and idk how to fix it so sorry about that:
youtube
the rest of this post is me deliberating about an aubrey decision bc i find the best way for me to figure things out is by explaining them to someone, so if you want an insight into my creative process read on, otherwise hope you enjoy!!
ok deliberation time lmao!!
i hadn't rewatched this set since right after i did it and honestly i think i feel a lot more positively towards it than i did before, but i'm also sitting here thinking, do i want to do this monologue anymore?
because the "uncle reg" monologue is the one i've performed the most times, and more than that, i think the introduction of reg really unlocked aubrey's characterization beyond anything else i've written. reg allows aubrey to contrast against someone, find unlikely common ground, and also is an outlet for comedy about some of the most unique relationships in my life
but the monologue itself? i mean, it's fine. it's not horribly out of character or anything, and the jokes work. it's a little more firm in one label than the aubrey i currently know, but it still scans.
but idk, i've written so much more aubrey and reg material since then (both monologues and sitcom-like episode concepts, some of my favorites being "nom de plum", "reg's funeral-orgy", "re-claiming the f word (friendship)", "don't grill the baby", and "hospital hookup"). and when i look at this character introduction, i feel like it gets bogged down in the little squabbles about labels and doesn't really have a story to it like the newer material does. it has a little bit of a story, with the pride stuff at the end, but that's barely developed (and my ideas for what else happened that day might work better as a sitcom episode).
and y'know maybe that's also reflective of how my own intergenerational-queer-friendships have evolved since i first wrote uncle reg, no longer getting bogged down in labels and arguments and instead going on zany adventures. but even tho the monologue is called "uncle reg", uncle reg isn't confined to one monologue
and i know i could always keep doing this monologue and just mix in others, or rewrite it to give it more of a storyline, but i kind of just want to leave it as "aubrey stage one". part of me wanted to keep doing it until i got a "perfect" recording (not flubbing any lines), but this might be the best it gets, and i'll keep getting better with the material i actually want to do lmao
idk i think the reason this is on my mind is bc as i'm going over the plans for scott's tour, i already had this goal that any time we stay in a city for an extended number of days, i'd seek out local open mics and do my own unofficial aubrey tour. and one of the other tour-members has a lot of connections to small clubs, so he said he might be able to get me booked shows as aubrey (and someone from toronto said the same thing at scott's new years party). so i'm wanting to firm up my material and practice it in my hometown a bit before taking it on the road. and also it's interesting navigating this culture-war-bullshit as this character, because i don't think aubrey can only appear to queer audiences or gen z or liberals etc. (you might disagree, but i don't want to perform in a bubble) but i need to figure out how to strike the right tone, and i think i have other material that works better for that (sometimes even edgier material, like the "hypothetical penis" monologue is still in)
idk it's daunting bc even tho i have a lot of aubrey material (two and a half notebooks worth), i haven't put it into a polished-monologue-format in a while bc i've been procrastinating. and the "uncle reg" monologue is the only one i ever completely memorized. but i want to get better at this so i just have to do it!!!
anyway thank you for reading this far if you did! i think i'm pretty much settled on not doing this monologue anymore (or at least just putting it on the shelf for now so i can motivate myself to do other material) but feel free to give your thoughts. and before you go...
#btw scott did a callback to my ''yay poetry'' line in his set and i just about died lmao#also as i'm talking about the development of my aubrey material. it's still so bizarre to me that bruce hasn't seen aubrey since stage 0#which was the aubrey monologue i did in my tv production class (which i actually don't like anymore???)#i mean it was good to actually motivate me to perform as aubrey for the first time and some jokes are still funny#but it was VERY derivative of buddy cole and the whole thing was about pronouns. which i feel like aubrey's kind of beyond#like i'll still make pronoun jokes of course but to do a whole monologue on it? not something current-aubrey would do#bruce knows i'm doing new aubrey stuff he just hasn't seen it#and scott performed with me at this show but it's the only one he's seen. tho i have told him about many others#(he LOVED the concept for the hypothetical penis monologue lmao. especially the stuff with the ghost of sigmund freud)#bellini on the other hand has seen so many aubrey monologues (scripts and videos) but never seen me perform irl#which absolutely needs to change i need to get him to a live show. this one just happened while he was in the hospital#anyway hopefully as i develop more stuff i'll feel confident enough to post more about it#Youtube

you should actually tell me this because im soso curious abt your masc presentation :D which f/o (any dynamic as well, /rom, /plat, /fam) in particular (or if it applies to all, awesome!!) sometimes throws some masc terms at you?? and what are those terms too? :3 pls tell im sooo so curious
(also btw kuya lara think about that oooo kuya lara AAOUUU WIWIWIWIWI) my familials calling u kuya lara wdyd
JUMPS AROUND LIKE A FLEA FROM THIS ASK HIHIHII 🥹🥹🥹 okay so there's only like... a few inserts of mine where my f/o's can refer to them in masc terms bc I haven't branched out much in my masc side until recently, but lemme ramble still!!!



The 3 inserts in question of mine are Lara (fnfsona), Lynelle (pokepasta) and Liam (TSP)!
🎨 Starting off with Lara !!
I haven't drawn her yet in a more masc image but considering she's just me but cooler- the old art above can still work HSJAHDJSHD
OKAY SO, first off, Pico's definitely one of the first to witness her being more openly expressive with her masc identity. I feel like she was very hesitant at the start but after being surrounded by a really supportive group of people (basically my fnf f/o's), she becomes a lot more open abt it
Lara can shapeshift☝️ she's an angel, ofc she can HSJAHDJSH so she tries playing around with physically altering her body to a more masculine one. She doesn't look too different but there are definitely still some small differences
^ Pico is quite surprised at first to witness this, but he welcomes it nonetheless ("thank fuck I'm bi"). He becomes pretty flirty with her bc of it, mostly as a way to show that he doesn't rlly mind whatever gender Lara takes form in and supports it wholeheartedly
Calls her by your typical masc terms: handsome, pretty boy, mr., sir, boyfriend, you know the drill. But when it comes to pronouns, Lara personally doesn't mind being called by he/him, but tends to default back to she/her still bc it's what she's used to. It doesn't remove or lessen her masc identity tho! (Pronouns ≠ gender type scenario)
The same goes for the others (my platonics basically)! I like thinking that Nene would start calling Lara "king" more often too, being her number one hype girl she is HSJAHDJSHD
Overall, they'll be helping her play around and try stuff out to help her branch out more with it!!
🍬 Next is Lynelle !!
I'm answering your last question here and it's if anyone in your or my familials call me kuya or brother, I'm gonna die instantly, next question /lh /pos HSKAHDJAHDJS
OKAY BUT NELLYYYY... I've only created him recently but I am So Severely attached to them already. They're so gender they are SO 🩷🩷🩷
First person comes to mind is Rainbow and I'm sure she doesn't mind referring to them as her brother. Lynelle is a lot more fluid in their identity and doesn't mind whatever still anyway
Really, just call her whatever- he doesn't personally have a preference with the terms!
Will say tho, I've thought about this as a silly but it feels a little fitting and comforting so I might make it canon but... Nel is AMAB who transitioned to appear more gnc! Not too familiar still with the exact terms but I think that describes it best :)
📌 Lastly we got Liam !!
You're probably already really familiar with him but I'm gonna ramble still abt him HSKAHDJAHD Liam is (I think) one of the first few inserts of mine that borders on the masc identity fully
I mean- he strictly uses he/him! Even despite his slightly feminine appearance, he's still very much so a guy LOL, and Stanley and Narry perceive of him as such
Likes being referred to with typical masc term, I'm sure that much is obvious. And his partners very much so oblige with it. He still does like playing around with his identity still tho! But tends to stick to a more masc one
Another silly ☝️ I've only said and done this once but... ftm Liam is canon in my book, thank you for coming to my ted talk 🙏 HAJAHSJAHS
Some extras and special mentions would be Rhayne! My Eddsworld OC :) She's mostly a demigirl and presents pretty feminine, but doesn't mind being complimented or referred to with masc terms (specifically mr. or sir)
Another would be Aurora! Another Genshin Insert of mine. The same scenario as Rhayne basically with being more inclined to the feminine identity but doesn't mind being referred to in masc terms (in fact- she probably encourages it!)
Last but not least... uhm, I haven't mentioned this insert before and he's only existed in my brain but- he's another Genshin Insert (god there's so many of them) in the works that's... in a poly and mostly masc presenting AHAHAHA YEAH THAT'S IT
#I WENT ON A TANGENT HERE I'M SO SORRY I GOT SO GIDDY RHAKRHAJDHSJ BUT I HOPE ITS A GOOD READ STILL#anyway future au idea with p1colara. I think the kids would call lara dad too#mostly mom but there are some cases where she's also dad and u got 2 dads in the family#peace and love on planet earth I love it here#💌 inbox!#🍀 jil!#I know I mentioned aurora here but we're not gonna talk abt which f/o that's paired with her SHHHHH I'VE CHANGED HER LORE. BUT HUSH HUSH ON#THE PREVIOUS F/O I PAIRED WITH HER RHEJFHSJFHSJFHD /NM /LH

I’m sick as fuck so pretty pls humour me… I have some questions abt coryo and soarynn my fav power couple.
in your humble opinion:
How tall are they both, is there a big height difference?
star signs? If ur an astrology girlie. Is soarynn an astrology girlie?
what version of coryo you have written would you most & least want to be with/ who is the scariest coryo
What Drabble/ series has ur favourite version of soarynn (I know this is a hard one haha)
what’s ur favourite Drabble you’ve written
whats ur opinion on the phrase gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss? And which of the three do you feel you most encapsulate. Is soarynn too sweet to gaslight? Hold on.
gaslight - coriolanus
girlboss- soarynn
gatekeep- petunia
also, in my mind in whatever universe there is a soarynn, there is also a petunia. I like to think with district soarynn there’s a ratty stray cat version of her that soarynn loves to bits.
in case you couldn’t tell I might be the tiniest littlest teensiest bit drugged up on sickness meds and perhaps might be a little bit delirious. You totally can’t tell tho.
oh my goodness i absolutely love this.
coryo is 6’2 (going off of tom blyths height) & soarynn is 5’6, so abt average for a girl.
for their star signs, soarynn is a gemini (i am as well) & coryo is scorpio based off of his birthday in my universe which is prefect bc scorpio men are the worst. i could totally see soarynn getting super into zodiac signs & coryo just nodding along to whatever she says.
out of all my drabbles & my book, i do feel like ‘Stay with me, always’ coryo is always gonna be the darkest & just the worst overall. he put our girl through so much so there’s no way in hell i would ever wanna be with that man. i really did love ‘escapism’ coryo & so many of yall did too, broke my heart a little. coryo in ‘Pretty’ is also a top contender for most being the most evil ever, or ‘Anything at All’ coryo. i never knew i had a knack for writing “dark coryo” until i came on tumblr.
i love my sweet soarynn in every single drabble, she’s so sweet & lovely. i actually really loved getting to write her pov in ‘Pretty’ with those companion drabbles i did, she’s so complex & it was such a dark series. i also just love her with the children, she’s such a good mom.
i actually counted a while ago & i have written like over 100 drabbles which is insane if you really think abt it so to pick my favorite is so hard but i find myself going back to ‘Cold & Calculated’ quite often. it’s always so interesting to see which drabbles just take off bc i never plan for them to. it’s also so interesting to see my earlier works compared to how i write on tumblr now. learning the algorithm has been such a journey.
i am so, so certain that the entire “gaslight, girlboss, gatekeep” came from my favorite drag queen katya & i love it. i think soarynn could totally be gaslighted but never be the gaslighter. coryo is such a gaslighter, that toxic ass man. petunia totally tried to gatekeep soarynn from coryo, giving that man a run for his money. soarynn is a total girlboss, i do love writing drabbles where she just spends his money left & right.
i also just always imagine petunia being around somewhere. if i ever fail to mention petunia in a drabble, just know that she’s lurking somewhere, do not fear.
i had so much fun doing this!!! if yall ever have questions abt these characters don’t ever hesitate to ask me bc i love answering them.
also, just thinking abt this today for anyone who might be new or confused on how soarynn is pronounced.
it rhymes with “foreign”. just switch out the ‘f’ for an ‘s’ & you get “soreign”. i hope that makes sense.
feel better!!! <3

BET YOU DIDN'T EXPECT ME SO SOON
I did the dessert vampires playlist first since it was the shortest!
Stampede- very good interplay with the characters. Gives the vibe of I respect you but we fundamentally disagree on some big issues. Would be fun to play in the background of like a joint operation scheme? like they've gone undercover at a fancy party and this is them working together during it
Vulture- this is such a Shadow backstory song like- i don't know exactly what happens with GUN and Maria in this au but THIS is the song you play to express his feelings. The first verse at least low-key also sounds like Knuckles during or immediately post transformation to Rouge. He's very angy
Welcome to the Circus- a jaunty little tune. bar/saloon coded, probably plays wherever Amy works i think?
Recommend songs for this playlist: Desperado by Rhianna and maybe the entire Anti album based on vibes alone.
Blood Like Lemonade- strong vibes
Trouble Valerie Broussard- more Rouge centric i think
For other playlists:
Like a Vampire Catrien Maxwell, for vamp au Sonic
A Little Wicked - im thinking of Rouge for it but if it fits a different character i wouldn't be surprised
Little Girl Gone Chinchilla - very vamp au Shadow coded imo
Eve Precious Pepala- Shadow coded
All up in your mind- feels like Shadow thinking about Sonic's effect on him in vamp au
Hope these are good and have a nice timezone 🫶🏽. I go to sleep now
~🩸🎵
welcome back fhbghbjfdfdg !!
This playlist is a little more tough to explain bc i havent shared the major plotpoint that changes the whole title of the au fjgfjghf, but ill get there eventually !! Stampede- idrk know how to explain this one beyond its just Them, their conflicts their compromises, how the two are trying to work together in the situation theyre in, big time agree on the respect with huge disagreements tho, thats one of their major sticking points Vulture- RAHHHHHHH THIS IS IS KNUCKLES @ SHADOW !!!!! the entire time its knuckles rage and defiance !!! and im slamming my head into a wall so fucking hard i prommy it makes so much sense when i share the plot Welcome to the circus- its a rouge @ knuckles song ! like i said the subject itself is kinda weak but it hits on some of their core dynamic pieces --- Desperado- this one i could see being very rouge @ shadow but its a bit too forward and honest ! rouge would defo more take the angle of "im following you bc ur hopeless without me <3" Blood Like Lemonade- strong vibes on its own but doesnt particularly fit with anyone at least right now, i might come back to it after fleshing more people out (also i am sadly biased against songs that are kinda slow sob. i need that constant stimulation music {i almost didnt include vulture in the playlist bc of its speed but it was just too accurate and picks up with some heavy hitting stuff near the end}) Trouble- very correct w the rouge part !! defo eying this one up in consideration
---
Like a Vampire- defo not vampire au sonic , it actually lines up more with desert vampires rouge (i adore the singers voice btw omg) idk if its going in any of the au playlists but it sure is going in mine ! dfhhdfhg A little wicked- shrug tbh ! i see it for rouge but it feels like its missing something, her spunk, her 4kids saxaphone (im assuming if you dont specify an au you just mean for the canon gamers !) Little Girl Gone- THIS IS SO VAMPIRE AU SHADOWCORE LITTLE UNHINGED BASTARD !!! the blood on my teeth line caught my attention....and then the screaming part sold me HDSHDHF hes sooo silly <333
Eve- im so sorry im really biased against love songs so i dont see it personally !! esp not for shadow </3 All up in your mind- eeh there are a few lines there that work, but overall just misses slightly. big fan of the idea that shadows just making up all those lines tho and sonics never said any of it, thats funny fdgjfjdgfg i feel bad for not enjoying all of them wahh, but i am just really picky tbh,,, its gotta bounce the braincell right... but i appreciate the suggestions sm!!!! tyyy!! have a good sleep !!!

1 thru 10 for rames 👀👀👀
EHEHEHHE hiiii!! thank you! i love all of these loll
who fell first? who fell harder?
(<- can't get rid of?) james fell first. lmao. no funny comment no jokes he's just that kinda guy, and he's liked roxy for a long long time. as for who fell harder... well... i'd say it's up for debate. in my mind, it's roxy, just because i've got the timeline of their relationship so permanently etched into my brain i might as well get it tattooed in the back of my eyes or something. but from just the writing + whats out of the story, i think the case could be made for james as well!
2. who is the one who fusses the most? does their s/o mind very much?
rox for sureee. we all saw how she was when he got sick! miss girl was good and freaked; almost felt sick herself just looking at him. wrapped him up in a blanked burrito, tried to give him as much medicine as she could, sat and played her guitar for him. she was so worried! james, though unwell, lapped that shit up tho. he looooves it - doesn't mind at all. he's not superrr fussy i'd say in general because he knows she can take care of herself pretty well, but he has his moments for sure. roxys usually 50/50 about being ok with it or not bc she knows he has good intentions
3. what is their love language?
call me a hater but i've never really understood only having one major love language (sorry), i think it's more of a combination of multiple that help made a good relationship among many other things. for roxy, i'd say she's more inclined to lean into quality time overall, just being around james and hanging out together as much as they can is her favorite thing ever. even if they're not doing anything particularly special, it's still important to her that they're doing it together. that, coupled with words of affirmation through songwriting is mostly how she's able to express her feelings (maybe that can also count for receiving gifts if we call each song one?), though if james did press her she could be able to fumble out some affirmations here and there :) for james, i'd say physical touch is huge for him - he's pretty much always got a hand on her somewhere if they're close enough. secondary for him is also words of affirmation and it comes much easier to verbally communicate for him than it is for her!
4. has either oc ever gotten a hickey off the other? what was their reaction?
ya. i'll put it in tasw when im not too embarrassed to write it and when i think their relationship is crossing into more physically intimate lines (though they are minors so nothing explicit will be written about them just as a sidenote). i'd say roxy is actually quite the demon about it, though she isn't leaving them where people would likely see because she'd get bashful about it. surprised james at first, and he's not fond of it happening too often bc bruises + his beautiful skin don't pair well. but as long as she asks first and he agrees he's fine to wait out the few days it takes to disappear. other way around, it's not his go to move because he knows it'll embarrass her if someone says something. so if he wants to leave one its going somewhere someone can't see. if he asks first she will also be okay with it every once and a while!
5. what is something they like to do together?
they're still honeymoon phasing it for the most part so just being together at all is something the two of them love. they haven't really found their thing yet, but music does really connect them. she's becoming more open to letting him hear her works in progress and he's learning a lot about her through that! they also like to make out :) a lot :)
6. who would ask the 'would you love mf if i were a worm?' question? how would their s/o answer?
james is asking and roxy is telling him no she would not!
see morning glory (2.4):
“James, that was incredible!” Roxy praised, reaching over the railing to pull the item off the line and onto the stairs with them. “Where did you learn how to do that?”
Had it not been for the darkness of the outer edges of the studio, she might have seen how red his cheeks grew at her amazement. “My dad liked to fish.”
There was something off about the way he said that, as if there was a bit more to the statement than he was letting on, but now certainly wasn’t the time to pry. Instead, the writer nodded, “So does mine! He took me with him once when I was little, but I cried when I learned he used live worms as bait.”
“Aww,” He voiced sympathetically, before taking his pointer finger and wiggling it around right before her very eyes. “Little Roxy couldn’t stand to see the worms?”
With her free hand, she knocked his out of the way and failed at concealing her laughter. “No! I couldn’t then and I can’t now! All they do is dig around in the dirt and poop and-”
7. who likes forehead kisses? who likes hand kisses? who likes neck kisses?
though they both do generally, roxy roxy roxy. lol. no elaboration on this one sorry!
8. who is the big spoon? little spoon?
depends on the situation, if they're just sleeping james is typically big spoon and rox is little spoon just because they fit better that way, but in times when he's sick or needs some extra comfort or she's feeling extra clingy she's happy to hold him in return :) they're versatile lol
9. if there wasn't enough seats, how would they sit? one on the others lap? one on the armrest? one on the floor in front of them?
she's in his lap immediately lmaooooo. most of the time it's because he's pulling her there! goes along w number 3
10. who plays with whose hair?
roxyyyy she loves his hair soo much! he takes good care of it so its extra soft and so smooth and she loves having her fingers in it. screwing up his do be damned! james will too, mostly if they're just watching tv or something he'll braid hers or put it up in funny ways to amuse himself. but if they're cuddling or whatever she's usually got her hands in his hair and he's usually got his on her body lol. <- guy who worked so hard on his washboard abs to fall for a hair girl
RAHH OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH THIS WAS SO FUN😭🙏 some flying into your inbox very soon <3
send me a number 11-100 to learn more about rames!!!

﹔silly kavetham headcanons
(sfw!!)
kaveh fell first, and alhaitham fell harder .
kvh is a swiftie & probably listens to lana del rey a lot (i'm projecting); def forces hthm to listen to them w him and they sometimes sing along or dance
hthm listens to classical music the most of the time or some unknown as fuck artist (probably 😭😭) but if he's not working or anything he'd be the type to listen to mitski, and bcz kvh is a swiftie n practically listens to her all the time, he listens to taylor swift too
kavetham's fav ts songs to dance to or sing r "forever winter", "enchanted", "love story", "sparks fly", "cruel summer", "paper rings", "style", "new romantics", "gorgeous", and "this love"
one of the ways hthm found out that kvh liked him was by accidentally coming across his diary/notebook -- it fell from kvh's desk when hthm was cleaning it one day, and so, hthm went to pick it up and it just so happened that it was open on a page filled with drawings of hthm and hearts drawn around them. kaveh also wrote little notes in the notebook too, such as, "he's so pretty :3" and some very...explicit notes too!!!
kvh found out that hthm liked him back when hthm started to do suspiciously kind things for him, such as buying him drinks, holding his hand, going out to dinner with him and him only, and just overall seemed to be way more comfortable around him. tho it took a while for kvh to realize that hthm liked him back 😭
hthm plays violin, kvh plays guitar, & both of them can play the piano. they do duets often and play love songs (it's cheesy asf but I don't care 😊)
once, kvh invited hthm to dance with him and hthm admitted he didn’t know how to, so that evening kvh taught him how to dance (they stayed up until like 3 am)
hthm cooks, kvh bakes
whenever kvh is hungover or sick, hthm will take a day off to take care of him, and whenever he does go to work while kvh is unwell, the only thing that he can think abt is kvh and is super worried
the olive theory but with soup ><
hthm’s love language is acts of service, & kvh’s is words of affirmation 🫶🫶
kvh and hthm met when hthm was just a freshman, and they grew really close (kvh began to develop feelings for hthm since then), but they ended up losing touch for 2 yrs. once they met again after those years, hthm finds out about everything kvh has went through and tries to be there for him and swore to him and himself that he would never leave kvh ever again.
(tw self harm) kvh cuts himself sometimes when he feels like he’s not good enough and whenever hthm finds out abt this, he’s hella angry at himself for not being able to be there for kvh. though, he helps kvh clean his cuts and tries to comfort him and tries to ask him if he could stop harming himself bc he doesn’t want to see him in this state.
kvh probably has like 5 lion plushies
hthm keeps one of the 5 lion plushies that kvh has and actually cherishes it as if it were a diamond necklace or something
kvh tries to get himself into trouble sometimes just so he could visit hthm’s office
kvh sings in the shower, and sings LOUD. hthm scolds him for it but secretly rlly enjoys it
i love them a very normal amount :3 (i’m sorry)
i might make more idk but that’s it so yipeee

i really don't see how it could be true that rbr is developing a car only for one driver (aka max) when not even he (unarguably the best driver on the grid rn for the last 3-4 years) can put that abomination of a f1 car on the top spot. like if they would be developing it only for max he'd be winning left right and center... he's not tho. the ONLY reason he won the championship last year and has only been in the top 4 this season is bc he's that damn good and he outdrives that car for everything he's worth.
the car is shit and im tired of that argument that rbr is developing only for max. the car is just so shitty that not even max can win with it and he has been saying that as well as pointing out time and time again to the team that it's not the driver but the car that is shit.
car developed for the driving style of a good driver ≠ fast car
just because they have developed a car for max's driving style, that doesn't mean the car developed is good. is the redbull car fast? yes. is it as good as the previous ones? no. is it built to suit max's driving style? yes. that's the reason why max does so well while his teammates struggle in that car. no one is saying max is a bad driver, he is good and he drives the wheels off his car.
the car was built around his preferences and input, and it's the main reason why he's the one that can extract the full potential of it while his teammates can't even get close. even when the car was winning, there was a clear gap between max and checo as the year went on, because the car was developed/configured more and more towards what max liked. and what max liked didn't make the redbull slower, so win-win for the two of them.
the driving style of drivers has an effect on how they prefer some settings of the car to be, and max likes his car set up in a way that makes difficult for other drivers to get used to. he is the driver redbull favors, so the car is going to be developed towards what he likes, not what the other driver says (if it doesn't make the car faster overall). but the development of a car does not solely focus on how a driver likes the back or front end, but a hundred million things that are physic and mechanic related, and have little to no relation to a driver's preference when driving.
the statements 'redbull is not as fast as it was and it's worse than before', and 'the car is developed to favor max's driving style', can and do coexist.
alex albon confirmed that the redbull car is configured towards max's preferences:
Speaking on the High Performance podcast back in 2023, Albon said: 'Truthfully, the car is what it is. But he [Verstappen] is very quick. He has quite a unique driving style actually.
'It's not that easy to get along with. I would say my driving style is a bit more on the smooth side but I like a car that has a good front end. So quite sharp, quite direct.
'Max does too but his level of sharp and direct is a whole different level. It's eye wateringly sharp. To give people an explanation what that might feel like... I don't know if you play computer games at all?
'But if you bump up the sensitivity completely to the max and you move that mouse, it's just darting across the screen everywhere. That's kind of how it feels. It becomes so sharp that it makes you a little bit tense.
'And so what ended up happening was, especially during my year, you start off being a little bit behind and then as the season goes on, Max wants his car to be sharper. 'And as it goes sharper, he goes quicker... and for you to catch up, you have to start taking a few more risks. It just starts to snowball. Every time the car becomes sharper and sharper, you start to become more tense. 'I think it's like any sport. If you start to not be in that flow state and you're having to really think about it, you don't have that confidence in the car'.
#azda.asks#f1#max verstappen#red bull racing#like if i give have shitty ass gun in cod and made two players try to win with it and also make the settings what one player prefers#and ignore the preferences of the other player#i cant act surprised when the person with the settings they like does miles better#even if they dont win#i lovedd the way alex explained it fr#but yeah redbull car is not what it was BUT if it really was completely shit then mv would not be scoring what he scores#cars have limits and max can drive the redbull to its limit bc he feels comfortable in the car bc it suits his driving style#which is different to the driving style of most drivers#= most drivers cant drive the redbull to its limits bc they are not comfortable in the car

think i'm starting to figure out why i just can't get into dark souls
it's so fucking slow. i know it's on purpose and it's part of what supposedly makes the experience so rewarding but that doesn't mean i have to like it. and i don't. your movement speed is so fucking slow even when you pay attention to your equip weight and constantly having to look at your stamina is so fucking annoying. i've become unhealthily attached to the grass crest shield just because of the stamina regen
and even if it wasn't for the movement speed and stamina, doing anything in this game takes ages. walking through an area is slow the first time or the thousandth time because you have to take every enemy seriously, at least when you're an inexperienced as me. farming souls is slow because you move slowly. beating bosses is slow because they're difficult. even picking up items is slow because of how long the animation takes.
i guess it's partly my fault because i haven't really played other games with design choices like this, but i have played sekiro. i didn't actually beat it for ~reasons but i did get very close to the end and that game just hit so many of my buttons. the game is fast and you are fast, you have so many options in combat and movement, no cluttered inventory, no having to switch your weapons and equipment every other minute, you can stealth or skip your way through so many parts. even farming xp or items is fast. and it's colourful and beautiful and the story is interesting. i fucking loved going from area to area and discovering things on my own and experimenting and learning. i felt cool as shit even when i wsa banging my head against a boss.
not that it doesn't have its flaws, of course it does, like i said i didn't even finish it and it's because a certain boss killed my enjoyment of the game for the moment (i'll definitely come back to it tho bc i didn't get to experience the best area in the game)
but if i were to rank the fromsoft souls games based on how much they appeal to me personally, it'd look something like this: sekiro - elden ring ----------------- dark souls trilogy -------------------- demon's souls ------------------------------------ bloodborne
greatly exaggerated but i hope you get what i mean.
i know it's well-designed and it appeals to metroidvania fans and fans of open-world games equally, but with ds1 i just don't really feel that excitement for exploration, because, even though some of the areas are beautiful and i really want to experience them, i just don't really like the overall setting, the vibes, especially the enemy design. i'm constantly stressed in a way that kills any fun i might have had because this game is brutal. and it feels even more painful when you don't love it, when it doesn't feel worth it.
i'll still try to get through it because i do want to experience some of the areas and bosses. i can't even say i'd have had a better experience if i tried going in blind because i wouldn't like the setting the combat the overall flow any better. i don't even care for the lore all that much...
and yes i know not every game has to appeal to everyone and normally i wouldn't even try to this extent but it feels like a rite of passage or smth, especially since i like sekiro and will probably love elden ring. i'll probably have to try ds3 again as well since i've heard it fixes some of the 'slowness', and it does look beautiful despite the lack of colour.

ajfhgsdhfs i will put some images under the cut for anyone who needs them!
(most of the images credit to cosmopolitan bc i think their drawing style is the easiest to understand! some of them are from different websites tho bc i don't want to be too graphic or t*mblr might nerf me)
to clarify, partner A is the person with a penis/strap/etc who is doing the penetrating, and partner B is the person with a vagina who is receiving penetration! not all people fit into categories which is why i don't want to say "man" or "woman" so i hope these labels help but please lmk if you want me to explain better! also, google is your friend so when in doubt look it up, there's tons of sex-positive articles that will explain better than i can! also, disclaimer i am not a medical professional and all that i know i've either googled or done irl so please don't consider me an expert on any of these!
missionary is the "basic" one most people write about, with partner A laying on top/kneeling/standing between their partner's legs and partner B laying on their back. it's pretty much the default position since it can be changed in so many different ways
cowgirl is where partner A is lying on their back and partner B is sitting on top riding them. usually partner B is the one doing all the work while partner A lays there, but like i mentioned in cheol's, partner A could be doing the work and while partner B just sits there. this one also has some room for variation
(chair cowgirl is the same thing, except partner A is sitting in a chair and partner B is sitting on their lap facing them)
reverse cowgirl is exactly the same as cowgirl, except instead of facing partner A, partner B is facing away from them
(chair reverse cowgirl is the same thing, except partner A is sitting in a chair and partner B is sitting on their lap facing away from them)
lotus comes from the yoga position lotus which is kind of like sitting criss-cross applesauce. partner A sits and partner B wraps their legs around partner A's waist. it's supposed to be very intimate because of how close in proximity you are, and there's also a thing about timing your thrusts to your breathing to create a matching rhythm but i'm not 100% on those details so that's something you'd have to google!
prone bone (also called lazy doggy, flat doggy, groundhog, etc.) i pretty much described but it's doggy style laying down. partner B lies flat on their stomach and partner A stands/kneels/lays behind. because of the position partner B is in the vaginal muscles are more condensed so it's tighter for partner A and allows for deeper penetration for partner B. also i read that it takes pressure off your spine and back muscles so it's good for your body, overall pretty comfy too
standing i don't actually know if this one has a name but from what i googled looking for pictures it's sometimes called the ballet dancer? partner A and B are both standing and partner B wraps one leg around partner A's waist. you don't have to lift your leg very high tho if it's uncomfortable (right pic)
69 everybody knows lol but here's a picture just in case. partner A and partner B are facing opposite ways. imagine the little circle part on the 6 and 9 are heads
mating press (also sometimes called anvil or butterfly) is a variation of missionary where partner B lays on their back and partner A is between their legs, except partner B's legs are in the air usually with their knees to their chest/ankles on partner A's shoulders. partner A can be laying or squatting over partner B. it's called mating press because the angle is supposed to make it easier for you to get pregnant so it's popular with the breeding kink people (aka me) but i don't know how much scientific evidence there is behind that
spooning is where you're both laying on your sides facing the same direction. partner A is the big spoon so partner B's back is pressed against partner A's chest
facesitting is exactly how it sounds lolol. one of the partners (most of the time partner B, but partner A can too) sits/squats/kneels over the other's face! this is an oral sex position so there is no penetration
i hope any of this made sense! i highly encourage yall to do your own research tho and take everything with a grain of salt as these are my own experiences and yours may be different :)
what position do u think would be each member's fave?
i thought about this for a very long time and i have very specific thoughts about each of them so i hope these make sense!!
member | svt ot13 x afab reader genre | smut headcanons (each member has a little paragraph) word count | ~900
seungcheol: cowgirl
i think it really depends what mood he’s in because one night he could be giving you the roughest, hardest dicking down of your life and then the next night be pouty and cute and want to make love. he would enjoy pretty much anything as long as it makes you feel good (another reason why i think he’d be super into body worship but let’s save that discussion for another time). one of his everyday favorites would be cowgirl because although you’re on top, he’s the one doing all the work thrusting up into you. it gives you an illusion of control and he likes that. he’d grip your ass so hard to get more leverage and there would be the added bonus of your boobs bouncing in his face
jeonghan: doggy
i just know he’s a freak and he would want to try a dozen new positions every week but i think doggy would be up there as one of his favorites. probably also a big fan of eiffel tower if he’s having a threesome with cheol or shua because i see that happening a lot too
joshua: missionary
he’s disgusting and romantic so he would like the fact that it’s a “classic” position but he would find a way to make it really kinky like having your hands tied to the headboard and a vibrator in your ass or something
junhui: facesitting
i’m not calling him vanilla but i think he would prefer simple positions over really complex ones because as long as you feel good and he feels good it doesn’t really matter to him which way you’re facing or if your boobs or your ass or your pussy is in his face. i think he would really really like facesitting though because he can just hold you down and he loves the feeling of your hips writhing against his mouth. his favorite penetrative position would be doggy or missionary just because they’re easy and give him a lot of room for creativity if he wants to change them up by angling you a little differently or introducing a toy or something
soonyoung: 69
he loves eating you out, and he loves having his dick sucked, so it’s truly a win for everybody here. plus he thinks the word “sixty-nine” is funny
jihoon: chair cowgirl
he might not always have the time/energy to make it to the bedroom for a full session so his favorite solution is having you ride him on his chair. his second favorite solution is bending you over his desk and fucking you from behind
wonwoo: prone bone (flat doggy)
he’s another one that i think would most often enjoy bending you over the nearest counter/table/surface but i also think he would really like being in bed too. he’d like this position because it’s just like doggy (which he also enjoys) but because you’re laying flat on your stomach he can hit deeper and you can feel pretty much all of his weight on you from behind and that’s really hot
minghao: lotus
he has 100% read the kama sutra and always wants to try new positions from it but his favorite is the tried and true lotus. it feels very intimate and sensual and he would be really big on holding eye contact while you do it
mingyu: mating press
he’s a very large man and maybe i’m just projecting my size kink here but i think he would enjoy positions that make him seem bigger and broader and taller. mating press would be his favorite because he would really love the fact that he’s putting all his weight into you and he likes seeing you folded in half with your knees by your chest and your legs in the air
seokmin: chair reverse cowgirl
i feel like he would like a chair position because otherwise if he’s in control he would just go crazy feral and when you’re sitting on him it helps him hold back a little and give you more control. so he would have you on his lap quite often and he’d prefer reverse cowgirl over cowgirl because he can pull on your hair and choke you better that way
seungkwan: standing
seungkwan is an enigma to me, like he’s always hard to get a read on, so figuring out his fav position was tough. but i have come to the conclusion that he would like that shower sex position where you’re both standing and you’ve got one leg wrapped around his waist. bonus: this isn’t really a position but i think he would be super into mutual masturbation, no touching just watching
vernon: reverse cowgirl
i don’t think he would like doing anything too crazy or difficult so i think he would like positions where he doesn’t have to do a whole lot of work lol. reverse cowgirl would be one of his faves because he can just lay there and let you bounce on his cock while getting a nice view of your ass. i think he would also really like laying on his side and spooning, and also cockwarming in any position
chan: cowgirl
honestly i feel like he would love any position as long as it involves lingerie. one of his favorites would be cowgirl because he gets a full view of your boobs in that pretty blue set he bought you

reading your relevance in korea reading, as someone who lives in korea... the general public absolutely loves jennie and she's mentioned in korean dramas and shows every single week, there isn't a single 3rd generation idol who's as loved as her here. yeah some people were upset about the dance but it wasn't much? artists here do similar stuff all the time, Korea isn't as conservative as yall think. the slutshaming yall see in forums doesn't reflect what korea think of her because these websites are filled with jobless boygroup stans that no one here takes seriously
i’m actually relieved it’s not like that bc i was really worried, but honestly, i am really thinking why they thought in that way back then, like days ago or so? do you think i saw repressed thoughts rather than what seems to be the “overall reality”? i don’t think korea is “conservative” as you said bc everyone is more or less with their interesting or odd point of view but 10 of swords literally flipped (i usually put it in its reverse position in my desks), how i would transcribe it otherwise? if it was reversed, okay, but it wasn’t and i’m thinking what does it mean now
i don’t deny her relevance, i don’t deny that she’s talked a lot, i don’t deny her impact, but why i saw 10 of swords.. the bottom card wasn’t even on the other side, it sort of blended, you know?
+ i don’t think the artists in your country do similar things all the time as we see your country’s industry differently than the usa’s pop culture for example. hell i am from balkan (peninsula) country who pop-folk is the most popular genre and i do know how the bulgarian industry works. whatever jennie did from foreign point of view can be interpreted as very shocking, very suprising but we (the europeans/usa citizens dqk about the rest) overall aren’t suprised because we’re already adapted of our home country’s music industry and the nudity issues that i personally disagree with but that’s my opinion. your country’s industry is a breath of fresh air to us. except hwasa where she’s doing some things that can be “controversial” (in brakes because idk if it actually is a one to south korea) i don’t really know who tf in the k-pop industry is breaking the rules like them in similar ways (i personally separate k-hiphop, k-indie and so on) and it really shows bc of the way how they’re talked. except in blogs and eventually on x idfk from where to look from koreans’ opinions because i’m obviously uneducated and even though we foreigners rely mainly on english k-pop sites + pannchoa (i use notpannchoa2 on telegram/x tho) there aren’t simply just enough sources to us so in this case “phew” for my alleged inaccurate opinions
however i don’t think your country’s citizens weren’t upset about the dance. i wasn’t even thinking about it. i thought first about her role when i saw the card - personally i liked how she did it really well from what i saw but the idol shouldn’t be her acting debut but i’ve expressed my opinion many times so i won’t repeat myself this time; my second thought was about the idol’s plot and how “erotic” it was and i think the plot was the bigger issue rather than her provocative dance, i even forgot she danced in one of the episodes.
i’ve never thought about the blogs in your country being true at 100% but that’s like the main source we have (i personally know only pann) for the koreans’ opinions that are translated and we roughly know what do koreans might think, so i don’t really know
overall 10 of swords might actually be repressed thoughts, i am aware of jennie’s positive opinions at some blogs’ posts
