ꔫHow to Voluntarily Age Regress

ꔫHi all! I wanted to post this, but I can't call it as much a "guide" as I usually would, since it is purely my anecdotal experience!

ꔫNonetheless, I hope this is helpful to you in your endeavors!

ꔫTypically, when I am trying to regress, I start with age dreaming! This comes with a number of things, maybe it's:

Watching cartoons or another piece of media that I find comforting or that I've found puts me in the space

Coloring a picture or doing worksheets

Babytalking with my cgs, babysitters or other in-community friends

^Asking my cgs/babysitters to care for me as if I am already regressed

^^Generally interacting with other littles or friends I find comforting

Scrolling agere tags on here or ingesting other agere content

Using little gear like pacis, bottles, etc.

Playing with toys or playing video games that I've found put me in the space

Listening to a playlist that one of my cgs made me

Writing agere headcanons or making content of my ocs who regress

Daydreaming about agere outings, playdates, etc.

Going shopping and looking at toys

Cuddling, holding hands, getting my hair pet, etc.

ꔫThis is just a short list of things I've put together, there's a lot more that could be done, especially since it's extremely individual! This is just what works for me!

ꔫFrom there, I try to maintain this comforting and safe space by not taking on any work/responsibilities or really anything else not suitable for my small age.

ꔫAnd, it’s not like it’s a 100% success rate either! Sometimes, I’m just not feeling it; sometimes, I just continue age dreaming for the rest of the night! For me, you can’t really force it — it’s okay if it does happen, it’s okay if it doesn’t!

ꔫSome other helpful things:

I find it much easier to slip when I’m tired.

You might feel kinda silly being big and trying to do your small things, but that’s okay!

It’s not just a switch one can flip, so don’t be frustrated if it doesn’t come easily!

It’s different for everyone — for some people it comes really easily, for some people not so easily. Some people need to do a specific set of things and have a specific set of conditions to regress. Going further:

Not everyone can voluntarily regress, and that’s okay, but there’s no harm in trying it out!

ꔫWhile this isn’t as educational as my other posts, I still hope that you are able to find it helpful!

Throwback

Hex Girl Ruby:*filling up candy bowl*

Green Lantern Jaune:You sure you don’t want to go around town. I don’t mind passing out candy.

Ruby:Nah it’s fine. So many kids brave the climb up through our spooky path to see me. I can’t let them down.

Jaune:I think it’s because you also hand out fresh cookies.

Ruby:A good cookie is worth a little scare. You take our adorable little munchkin around see the spoopy lights and drop Carmine off at the Halloween party.

Pooh Bear Garnet: I want candy!

Ruby:*pinches cheeks* But you’re already so sweet! I might gobble you up if you’re sweeter!

Jaune:Do you know Carmine’s costume?

Ruby:Nope. Said she’s had one since she moved back. Carmine! You ready to go.

Carmine:I’m coming!

Heavy footsteps from above work their way down stairs to meet the rest of their family. Ruby turns to look at her daughter and goes wide eyed as the girl hides her face under a red hood and old school beacon uniform.

Ruby:Is that…

Carmine:Wh-What? The party theme is Throwback and heroes. Thought I’d blend the two.

Jaune:*takes candy bag from Ruby*

Ruby briskly walks over and gives Carmine an unavoidable hug. Though the girl seemed embarrassed, she genuinely wanted the affectionate.

Jaune:Should I be hurt you didn’t dress up as me?

Carmine opens up her cloak to reveal the Pumpkin Pete hoodie over the uniform.

Jaune:*sniffles* You’re an icon.

Carmine:It’s in my blood.

”Todd.”

A hand shook Todd’s arm and he stirred, cracking his eyes open to see a brunet sitting next to his bed.

“Oh, Neil,” he mumbled, rolling away.

“No, no, Todd,” Neil said again. The break in his voice made Todd sit up, the sleepiness disappearing from his eyes. Neil’s eyes were wide and filled with shock, but the first thing Todd noticed were the tear stains on his cheeks.

“What happened?” he whispered urgently.

Neil looked down at his hands. They were covered in blood. “Todd, I…” His voice broke into a sob.

”Neil,” Todd said carefully, sitting up straighter and subconsciously inching away. “Wh-who’s blood is that?”

Neil looked up, glassy eyed and shaking. “I killed my father,” he whispered.

So Rosi has to be 100% OP but her father's still see her as their daughter. I can see a scenario where Roci finds herself in a crazy battle and Luffy and Law rushing to try and help her but when they get to her she has completely dominated the battlefield.

damn u rite tho!!

Give me masochist Logan or give me death /j

Logan is a pain whore. But let's break it down, shall we? (Sorry if this wasn't technically the smut you were after if that's what you were looking for. but this has been on my mind since you sent this in)

I think that Pain and Logan go hand in hand. He has regenerative capabilities that are on an uncharted level. He feels things…..and he feels things hard. Logan's tolerance to pain is sky-high, and I think most of that comes with the very idea that not a lot could really hurt him in a way he couldn't come back from. He carries all that physical pain as he slowly but surely grows older, and gets closer to the end of his days in the X-Men universe. Canon Logan, the best version of Logan, I'd even go as far as to argue that he welcomes the sweet release of death.

Physical pain can heal, Logan's DNA is built to literally regenerate after massive injuries. He's built to recover from physical injuries. That's his superpower, that's his thing. That's literally what he does!!

But there isn't a mutation on earth that could help with emotional pain. No matter how much physical pain Logan went or continues to go through, it would never amount to the level of EMOTIONAL pain he'd been through. And in this particular case, I think the Worst!Logan harbours an immense amount of emotional turmoil that he can't seem to escape.

I feel like Logan would be attracted to the idea of his partner being able to bring him some form of physical pain while being intimate together because it's a pain he isn't used to experiencing. Not all pain is bad pain, but the bad kind of pain is all Logan has ever known.

So when your nails dig into the muscles that adorn his back. When you sink your teeth into his neck or pull his hair until it nearly rips from his scalp....Logan goes feral for that feeling. It's a good hurt. A good pain only you have the power to give him. everyone else had the intention of hurting him. You just want him to feel every bit of emotion you have coursing through your veins. You just want Logan to understand how he makes you feel.

Just picture it. Riding Logan so expertly well that you have him babbling underneath you. He gets that cheeky "Is that all you got?" grin on his face when you glide your nails down his torso. But it's only when you slow your movements just as he's about to lose his mind in the feeling of your velvet walls, does he beg you to keep going and keep going hard. He likes to pain. He loves it because it's coming from you, someone he trusts to handle him like he's breakable, not invincible.

"Why do you like it when I get rough?" It's a question early on in your relationship (or whatever the hell you wanna call whatever the hell you and Logan were)

"Because you aren't trying to hurt me in a way I've been hurt my whole over-extended life," Logan explains as he lays in a tangled mess of sheets with you. "You want me to feel pleasure, you want me to feel things I haven't felt in a long fucking time."

To truly understand why Logan likes putting his cigars out on his palm or why his pleasure sensors light up when you scratch him hard enough to have him hissing, I think we need to understand that pain has always been INFLICTED on Logan..... Levels of pain he wasn't in control of.

But with you? He knows he's safe. He knows you wouldn't ever do anything to really hurt him. He trusts you. He loves you. He has control over the pain you're able to bring him when he needs it.

ꔫWhy Do People Age Regress?

ꔫThere is a number of reasons that an individual may age regress!

ꔫBecoming familiar with terms “voluntary” and “involuntary” will be very useful in your understanding!

Voluntary: “intentional, done because one wants to”

Involuntary: “unintentional, carried out without one’s own wishes”

ꔫSo, age regression is something that can be done voluntarily or involuntarily. To restate, it can happen because one chooses to or because one unintentionally falls into the state.

ꔫVoluntary regression, oftentimes, is for fun or relaxation! However, it is sometimes also done voluntarily as a choice between different coping mechanisms.

ꔫInvoluntary regression is “triggered”. Despite the connotations of the term “triggered”, this does not always mean something negative! Yes, triggers for regression can be stress, anxiety, fear, etc., but they can also be happiness, comfort, external environmental factors, etc.

ꔫWhen used as a coping mechanism, age regression is commonly defined as “returning to a time where you felt safer, things were easier, and/or less stressed out.”

ꔫRegression is not always a bad experience, but it’s not always a good one either! Both happen, both are real, that’s okay!

ꔫWhether or not you are a voluntary or involuntary regressor, if you regress for fun or to cope — or a combination of all of these things — that is perfectly valid. All that matters is that you are safe, happy, and doing what’s good for you!

Ruby:*holding Carmine*

Jaune:Rubes? Honey?

Ruby:Hmmm?

Jaune:You do understand eventually Carmine is going to half to learn to walk, right?

Ruby:Hehe, I know. She’s only nine months. *puts her down* Your still crawling, aren’t you sweetie?

Carmine:*stands up*

Ruby and Jaune:!?

Their baby shakily takes about three steps until she grabs Ruby’s leg and reaches up. Speechless, Ruby picks up the fussy girl and looks a Jaune.

Ruby:Welp, you were right. However, she’s clearly spoken she likes the high life.

Jaune:Ruby, our baby just walked.

Ruby:*tearing up* I know, I’m trying not to scream right now.

Carmine:*rests her head* Ma ma…

Jaune:*grabs tissues*

Ruby:Aaaaahhh! My baby!
