#GIVE ME GAY OLD MEN

[steveshairychest]

Wayne ambushes Eddie in his room one afternoon with a serious look on his face; his brows furrowed, and his mouth pulled into a disappointed frown. Eddie's only ever seen that expression once, and it was when he broke Wayne's favourite mug.

"Son, are these yours?" He asks.

"What - oh, fuck." Pure fear washes over Eddie as he finally notices the very explicit magazines in his uncle's hand. He'd bought them years ago when he first started questioning his sexuality; he'd shoved them under his shirt and ran all the way home to avoid accidentally bumping into someone. He'd only had to peek at one page that featured a very handsome, very naked man to realise that, yep, he definitely likes men.

But he'd forgotten to throw them away. He stares at the offending magazines in Wayne's hand and runs through every excuse in his mind, but none of them make sense.

"Those aren't mine." Is what he brilliantly lands on. The crack in his voice and the embarrassed flush on his cheeks gives him away immediately. Wayne just sighs and pinches the bridge of his nose, almost like he expected that answer.

"Well, they aren't mine." He looks at the magazines in his hand and says something that has Eddie choking on his own spit. "I don't buy this brand; the pictures are bad quality, and mine are actually safely hidden away, unlike yours." He says it with a straight face, but a small smile slowly creeps onto his lips, a smile that says he's not really mad at him. "Put these under your mattress like everybody else does." He places the magazines onto Eddie's desk and then just... leaves.

He leaves like he didn't just admit that he buys gay porn magazines as well.

The fact he'd said it like they were discussing the weather or sport is what stuns Eddie the most. It had taken him years to get the courage to even say the words 'I'm gay', and here's his uncle, essentially coming out to him by discussing porn mag preferences.

The morning warmup

They are everything to me.

I'm not sure if this will take off but I'd love to be indulged. I just read through an old reddit thread where butches talked about what colognes they wore and liked, and got to thinking that it'd be fun to do the same.

you cannot even imagine the level of emotions I feel because of how real this interaction looks..

How DARE women to be openly attracted to a gay man!? Terrible, absolutely terrible, didn't you know that any kind of attraction must immediately cease once you hear that you're incompatible with that person's sexuality? That's why gay men never EVER lust after straight men, how could they! And if the gay man encourages the female lusting by, say, recording something that's specifically targeted at them, it must mean he's in debt/pressured into it and not that he wanted to do it and maybe thinks it's fun, nevermind easy money. No, the terrible women are at fault, they are all homophobic and must be ridiculed!

Hold my head inside your hands I need someone who understands I need someone, someone who hears For you, I've waited all these years For you I'd wait 'til kingdom come Until my day, my day is done And say you'll come and set me free Just say you'll wait, you'll wait for me

~*~*~

holy hell I think it's done? I don't normally do much fanart but my brother and I wanted to understand why all the tumblr girlies are so obsessed with these day old men so we binged this show which immediately grabbed me by the throat and hurled me into the gay old men fervor and wouldn't let me do anything else until I finished some kind of tribute ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

few more process shots+thoughts beneath the cut ♥

okay so I know you have to be kinda careful about making someone's face all black... but I usually dislike clearly human halves on most monster designs, and red wouldn't work either, so I just kind of tried to lighten it closer to the orangey scales on his snake face and hope it worked out?

you can see the other design ideas I had for naga!crowley in the thumbnail sketch but it diverged enough that actually I'm gonna probably just keep that as a separate design for perhaps a future character, like a tiefling/salamander npc for the next campaign perhaps 🤔

this one took a lot longer than usual due to trying to actually somewhat accurately capture an existing person's face, trying to put more effort into detailing the scales, and a style of hair I don't draw as often haha. wahoo @ being able to rather fittingly apply my monsterpeople habits to some fanart for once :)

I immediately threw together a playlist for them that I keep listening to on repeat and "til kingdom come" is the last song on there, which has been giving me blorbo heart hurty for over a decade now

genuinely felt a tangible kind of relief like 'ahhhh...' when I finished the lines cause this art was all-consuming til I let it out 8') I really really wanna keep drawing these two but feel like a week or two is all I can reasonably take away from commissions at the moment... but if I can power through another real quick maybe I'll allow myself some smorching doodles heehee

I could save him

why does no one talk about the subculture of gay men who are intensely interested in roller coasters. like why do they know all the stats and mechanics and stuff and HOW can they afford to ride so many?

[astrolionking]

If I see ONE MORE young Wolfstar and none of them as their middle aged selves I am going to lose it

Why does EVERYONE draw them as their younger versions!? We meet them when they’re older!!

[bsdisfreetherapy]

There was no gay flashback in this episode :(

[vanilla-voyeur]

I'm absolutely obsessed with all the one star Nimona reviews that say it was a great movie except for one single scene that ruined it by shoving their politics down our throats

[poisoned-pearls]

you know, Idk if I have to say it, but, cut off those people who drain you. You shouldn’t always have to text first, your friendship shouldn’t end because you stopped talking.

And I know it sucks, that feeling of crippling loneliness. But when shit was absolutely the worst for me, when everything had fucking crashed and burned, I met a few people who finally reminded me what it meant to have someone care, and you’ll get it soon

Some of the clarity was lost in the painting process and just because this was painted in my sketch book that isn't very big but it's old man Mike in the security breach era. He is rotting <3 The concept post

one thing that drives me crazy about the disco fandom is how most of the smut isn’t for Culmets despite the fact that they’re the most popular ship and it’s not even because I’m a little freak who loves a good smut fic from time to time but bc so many other fandoms and even other parts of the Star Trek fandom are obsessed with yaoi and gay smut but because they’re both canonically about late 40s-early 50s people simply don’t write smut about them and instead boring ass het couples who are the same age
