#I AM. SO SORRY THIS TOOK SO LONG TO ANSWER😭😭😭😭😭

[carletes]

Nooo now i cant stop thinking about gigi and teto in tsor 😭

“And then after the meeting with the ambassador from Maroc?”

“After that, mi vida, I should be free to luncheon with you,” Prince Sir Carlos of Hiberia and Anglosax declared with a smile as he shrugged on an oilskin coat over his doublet. It was a blustery winter day in Thameside, which meant it was wet. “Is that acceptable?”

His husband, Prince Sir Lando of Anglosax, sniffed thoughtfully. By contrast, Lando was reclined in a settee, his belly full with child, looking ever so slightly discomfited. It made Carlos’ core clench; he longed to run his fingers over Lando’s lips, kiss the pout from them. “I suppose that is acceptable. You must give me a full summary of the ambassador’s concerns.”

“When do I not?” Carlos demanded, still fussing with the buttons on his coat. His hands were swatted aside by his valet, Pierluigi, whose no-nonsense ways and subtle humor had won the famously anti-valet Hiberian prince over. Pierluigi rolled his eyes as he buttoned Carlos up and shrugged at Lando.

“When has he not, he asks, as though he will not fall at your feet and fuss over your heirs the moment he is through the doors.”

“Precisely,” Lando exclaimed. He had recently taken a fall while on an excursion, and had been consigned to their rooms on pain of revoking sparring privileges. “I’m not fucking jesting, Carlos, I need a proper accounting of every word. Pier, will you–?”

“Of course, my liege,” Pierluigi clipped out, with a smart salute to boot. “I will take the notes myself.”

“What days have befallen us,” Carlos growled, turning away from his valet’s stern appraisal, “that a man is discouraged from being concerned for his expectant spouse?”

But before Lando or Pier could answer that question, there was a rap on the door.

“I will go,” Pier said, turning on his heels to investigate. Lando sighed and made to stand; immediately, Carlos closed the distance between them and took Lando’s hands, helping him up.

“You are well?” Carlos asked, all previous consternation forgotten. Lando smiled at him, patting Carlos’ cheek. Carlos turned his head and kissed Lando’s fingers, his palm, his wrist.

“I am well,” Lando said. “I just wanted to stretch.”

And Carlos watched as his spouse lifted his hands over his head, groaning softly as his beleaguered joints protested. He was beautiful; tired, yes, but beautiful, the glow of being encumbered hypnotic. Carlos took Lando’s hips, seeking the ties of his gown.

“Carlos,” Lando warned, rolling his eyes.

“I will be quick,” Carlos murmured, his lips already beneath Lando’s ear. “It will not take much.”

“You are a filthy man,” Lando said, but Carlos could feel Lando turn his head to the side for Carlos’ ministrations. He would not need to prepare Lando; they had already made love that morning, Carlos awoken by Lando’s wanton moans as he bobbed his head on Carlos, his eyes as guilty as they were desperately, coming off of Carlos’ cock with a sinful pop as he gasped, “Please, please–”

But before Carlos could lift Lando into his arms, Lando said, firm, “Carlos. Pier went to check the door, remember?”

Oh. Yes.

“Sorry,” Carlos grumbled. He suddenly resented whoever was at the door. He resented the Maroquen ambassador. He resented everyone who wanted his time. If he had his way, he would be tending to his gorgeous, strong, brave, powerful, disagreeable, scowling, lustful spouse himself.

Alack and alas.

“Pierluigi,” Carlos called, adjusting his coat over his newly tight breeches. “What news?”

“No news, Sir Carlos,” Pier called from the other room, his voice a little odd. “Your friend, Sir Roberto of Merhi.”

“Ah!” Carlos said, smiling. He took Lando’s hands, leading Lando towards the main room. Lando waddled alongside him, looking ready to give birth for all that he was merely 6 months into his encumbrance. “Teto, ¿que tal?”

Then, Carlos stopped. Teto had a look on his face. He seemed…distracted. Unfocused. “Ay, Teto, ¿que pasó?”

“Hm?” Teto said, looking at Pier. “Oh. Uh. Nothing. Your Royal Majesties,” he said, bowing to Lando and Carlos, oddly formal.”

“All is well, Teto?” Lando said, and he too sounded curious.

“Yes! Yes! Apologies for worrying you, Lando,” Teto said, shaking his head. He smiled at Carlos and Lando. “You both look well. I just came to tell you that the Maroquen ambassador would like to extend an invitation to luncheon after the meeting.”

“Luncheon? No, I must decline,” Carlos said firmly. “I said I would luncheon with Lando.”

“It’s fine,” Lando said quickly, peering at Pierluigi, who was himself quite silent. “Maybe I’ll join you and the ambassador for luncheon.”

“Lando,” Carlos protested, but Lando put a hand on his elbow.

“The air will do me good, I am stifled in here,” Lando said firmly. It was as close to an order as Lando would issue, so Carlos sighed.

“Very well. I can keep an eye on you, then.”

“Perhaps,” Lando said musingly. Then, “Carlos, have you introduced our friends to each other?”

“Oh!” Carlos said, laughing. “I am so sorry. Yes. Teto, my friend, this is Pierluigi Della Bona, my valet and new friend. Pier, this is Roberto de Merhi, one of my oldest, truest friends.”

“A valet,” Teto said, his voice distracted again as he shook Pier’s hand. “I am surprised, Carlos.”

“He cannot cow me like he did the others,” Pier said, an odd smile on his mouth, eyes glittering. “I am as stubborn as this toro.”

“Then you are certainly worthy of your post,” Teto said. It was quite a long handshake.

“He is very capable,” Lando said suddenly, grinning. “Pier puts Carlos in his place. Kind of like you, Teto.”

“Hey,” Carlos said reproachfully.

“And he has started the mustache trend in the palace,” Lando continued as if Carlos had not spoken. Carlos frowned—had Pier?

“I have noticed a glut of mustachioed faces since my last visit,” Teto said, and Carlos once again wondered if that was true at all. “It is a- handsome look on some men.”

“Some?” Pier asked, raising an eyebrow.

“Yes. Not everyone can pull off such a strong look.”

What the fuck was everyone talking about.

“Come, husband,” Lando said, slipping an arm through Carlos’. “Why don’t we let Teto and Pier get acquainted, and you can help me get dressed.”

Oh. Yes.

His friends’ odd behavior forgotten, Carlos quickly helped Lando back to their rooms, closing the door behind them. There, Carlos lifted Lando onto their bed.

“Will you deny me now?” Carlos asked, straddling Lando’s thighs, pulling the ties of his gown loose. They came away, exposing his husband’s light golden skin, the expanse of his belly, his lush beauty.

“No,” Lando said, smiling coyly, “but you might not want to continue once I tell you what I’ve observed.”

And indeed, when Lando told Carlos that he believed Teto and Pier had certain eyes for each other, Carlos could have sworn his manhood retracted.

hi bella! i hope you're having a good day, by any chance do you still have your kieroni's pavilion restaurant build for download? i (very sadly) lost all of my mods, saves, and tray files due to the latest patch update and am currently remaking my save file from scratch. i loved using your restaurant build & would love to have it back in my game again, i saw it on the gallery but don't have all of the cc! if not, that's totally fine, i know you are going through a rebrand and deleted your old posts! thank you <33

hi, im really sorry to hear about your mods & saves! i've been there n it sucks :( i had no intention of reuploading kieroni’s pavilion but here ya go <3 i hope you enjoy

[asmrbrainrot]

Hello! I really loved your post about Zef and serafin with the emojis! But i noticed that we didn't get how zef would comfort us. A girl needs her comfort rn🥲 so i would ask for ❤️❤️‍🩹 for Zef

❤️- Zef isn’t the most outwardly affectionate, but he certainly isn’t above helping a friend in need. He’ll probably try to make you laugh, cracking jokes or be goofy just to get you to smile. 😊 But if you’re not into that he can also give you space. I can just imagine him leaving some food for you and then leaving you alone so you don’t feel overwhelmed. Cutie~

❤️‍🩹- So I don’t think Zef is too proud to accept comfort, but depending on the kind of affection you give he may be less receptive of it. He’d probably just want someone to hang out with as a healthy distraction rather than talking about his feelings before he’s ready. If not, food is always a good option! Get this man some McDonalds fries and he’s a happy feesh.

LAURIEE beloved <3 i wanted to ask if you had any general or cute hcs about the nurse and adiris??

RACEE BELOVED <33 ofc!! wasn’t completely sure to do just regular hcs or romatic ones so i mixed in both, hope thats ok 🩵

warnings: none, gn reader!

Sally Smithson/The Nurse

Sally’s mask still smells like smoke from the asylum fire, leaving her hair with the permanent scent of ash. Please, when she takes off the cloth, play with her hair. It helps ground her in a way no one but you can.

The small things mean a lot to Sally, and she always takes note of them. You mentioned you like dancing? She’ll find a music box so you can dance together. You blush when her hands linger on yours? She’ll always find a reason to intertwine her fingers with yours.

The Nurse prefers to stay in her own realm, but if she doesn’t hear from you for a while she has no issue stalking around the boundary of the survivor camp to check you’re ok, much to the horror of anyone to see her.

Sally spends a lot of her time asleep on the various pieces of furniture in the Disturbed Ward, recovering from the fatigue of trials. Often she’ll draw up her mask to uncover her mouth, just to make breathing a little easier than normal.

Despite this, she’s so lively when you’re around, she can’t help but feel energised by your presence. It’s almost like she’s a match lit up whenever you come to see her.

You had a rough day/night? Please come to see Sally, she knows just how to help. She’ll pick you up bridal style and keep you safely tucked to her chest while carrying you to the nearest couch. Sitting down, she’ll keep you held close to her while stroking your hair and pressing soft kisses to the crown of your head.

Though she’s very changed now, Sally was once a nurse, and she has the best treatment reserved for only you <3

Adiris/The Plague

Adiris is someone who is very regal and reserved, often keeping her emotions hidden behind her ever guarded face.

Yet, you always manage to draw out her expressions. It starts with a small smile she can’t help when she sees you come to visit her, then a chuckle when you do something amusing, and if you catch her off guard by linking your hands with hers, you can even make her blush.

Adiris is so touch starved from years of attempting to keep the people around her rid of her infection, so it takes her a while to warm up to being physically affectionate with you. Though she craves nothing more than to hold you close to her, she’s scared to death about infecting you as well.

Instead, Adiris opts to use her words to express her feelings towards you (at least until she figures out The Entity prevents you from getting sick or infected outside trials). She was always well spoken in her life before the fog, and knowing that she’s speaking to you motivates her more. Though her babylonian words may be unfamiliar to your ears, with the adoring look in the priestess’s face the praise and meaning comes across the same.

After establishing physical contact is safe, you’ll have to help warm Adiris up to it, show her that you reciprocate her affections. Please, show her you’re not put off or disturbed by her scars and disfigurement. Hold her hands to your cheeks and kiss her palms, massage her shoulders after a trial, wrap your arms around her waist and hug her tightly, she loves it all. Adiris goes especially red if you pair these actions with sweet whispers against her skin, “my priestess”, “you’re gorgeous”, “please, you’re so much to me”.

Adiris will always find a way to be touching you somehow. A strong hand on your shoulder, an arm sneaking around your waist, her chest pressing into your back as she helps you reach for something. She loves it most when she gets you to rest your head in her lap, carding her slim fingers through your hair and hushing you to sleep.

While you may just be a regular person thrown into the hellish playground of The Entity, Adiris believes with her whole heart that you’re a gift from her gods, one that she makes sure to show how much she cherishes <3

Hey the guys are going around. Bringing warm beverages and love. Because you’re amazing. 🫶

I received it, got very emotional about 'you snailed it' and promptly forgor about posting an actual response to this 🥺🥺 i'm sorry and thank you, love, for such an amazing ask. I will keep 'you snailed it' in my brain forever 🥺💖

[suzuki-ecstar]

thank you catie @skitskatdacat63 for the tag! this was fun to think about!!

i included motogp bc without it all my answers would be like fernando ALONSO 💜 and that would be kinda boring

i will tag @comradejoanmir @loverpoolisms @flyingfabio @its-always-silly-season @indiangp @captainbradmarchand you can do it for either f1/motogp but please please please please i would like to know your answers 🤲

who is your favorite driver?

fernando alonso

do you have any other favorite drivers?

i also like joan mir, alex rins, and marc marquez :)

who is your least favorite driver?

max used to be that guy but now i can’t even get worked up about his utter inevitability. do you get mad when the day turns to night :/

do you pull for drivers or do you like teams as well?

i go where fernando goes

if you like teams, what team do you pull for?

my one true love in this world was suzuki motogp team bc i liked both riders and the constructor, and i will never experience that high again 🤧

actually it’s for the best that i don’t usually root for teams bc i supported suzuki and they withdrew from motogp, then i supported chip ganassi cadillac and they announced they’re dissolving their partnership with caddy. like i'm down 0-2 i need to start playing offense

how long have you been into f1?

only since 2022

for motogp - since 2020

what got you into f1?

i think there's just something visually satisfying about motogp like. the way the bikes lean into curves just scratches some itch in my brain idk. and then of course learning more about the riders, seeing their anger and joy every week, i just fell in love with the sport

for f1 - i initially started watching bc motogp was on break 😭 but i kept watching bc of the fernando alonso narratives™. what a contradiction of a man. PEEPAW 💜

do you enjoy fanfic/rpf?

i do but it is not the primary way that i engage w fandom tbh

how do you view new fans?

i think i technically am one lmao?? i try to avoid gatekeeping ofc but i do get massive headloss from seeing motogp takes on twt

if you could take over as team principal for any team, who would it be and why?

sauber bc i don’t think i could make it much worse than it already is

are your friends and family into f1 as well?

my brother is also motorsports enjoyer

my friends are vaguely aware of f1 and they’ve decided they hate this alonso fella 😭

are you open to talking to other fans/friends?

the best part of watching f1/motogp has been my moots so yes don’t be a stranger!

(ooc; HELLO ANOTHER AMPHITRITE MAIN :D)

𝐖𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞...𝐦𝐞? 𝐀𝐦𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞? 𝐈 𝐝𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐲𝐨𝐮... 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮?

-@4mph1r1t3 ༄

Oh, why hello Miss Amphitrite! I do quite understand it from your perspective on how it may be difficult to... adjust? Is that the right mortal word? Anyway, I am so sorry for my distractions, that is not the point of this conversation, but Amphitrite is only my English ξήρα name, and so it is quite hard to equate it to myself as deeply as my Atlantean name or even ελληνικά name is! It is merely another name I am called, and so this is not quite as weird to me as it is to you :). I wish I could provide an adequate solution, though...

As for how I am? I am doing quite well, thank you! My children are being the adorable children they are, my husband is currently off terrorizing Delphin, which he much deserves, and I am laying off the paper work for a bit because I am frankly over it and nobody can tell me otherwise :). You? /pos

[hom3landr]

How long until another bakerverse? Do you have any other Homelander fic recommends? 😅

Hello! 💖 I’m sorry for the long wait for a reply. I promise I’m never ignoring anyone. I just forget to check my inbox sometimes. 😅

I’m gonna be real honest, it’s pretty hard to predict when I am able to get things out. I have some stuff going in my personal life that takes a lot of mental energy. I also frequently have to battle executive dysfunction even for things I want to do like write. I promise I’m not giving up on requests or bakerverse and I’m honored that people have given my fics the love they have.

That being said, there are some incredible writers in this fandom that I highly recommend.

@blindmagdalena - The reason I started writing. So many amazing fics and PEAK Homelander characterization.

@sehtoast - I’m in love with his OC Ben and his reader fics are perfection.

@theonlymanintheskyisme - Gives me heart palpitations fr. SO HOT.

@irenadel - Pygmalion has me giggling and kicking my feet with every chapter.

And so many others.

Also this has made me realize that I should make a fic rec tag.

[lilithofpenandbook]

Just wathed the owl house and realized something:

Lilith Clawthorne and Severus Snape are the exact same character!

Both start school as a genius with a genius, but more social, sister character

Both are neglected by their moms

Both are total nerds ("watching the ink dry is the best part" is such a Snape thing to say)

Both invent new spells

Both are really ambitious

Both have a falling out with their sister character

Both join the ultimate "this group of witches has to be wiped out" bad guy

Both become the bad guy's most trusted servant, despite their family not being ideal for that

Both are the reason the sister character gets hunted by said bad guy

Both betray the bad guy and join the good guys

Both use their knowledge about the bad guy and his ways to help defeat the bad guy

Both have to rescue an, at the start annoying, morally gray charater with blond hair, who works with the bad guy in the beginning, because he was raised to think the bad guy was right

They even look similar!

There is only one difference: I have never seen anybody hating on Lilith.

I haven't yet watched TOH, although I've seen so many edits and clips I might as well have (j) and you are so right

Lilith by the end happens to be rather adorable, cute, we see her become a nicer person. We don't see Snape be "nice"

And people don't like that

Hello! 💓 Here’s yours chance! Pour your heart about that one storyline/scene you passionately love!

Hello! Thank you for the ask <3

Does this count as one storyline? I'm not sure but I LOVE the bombers/kidnapping storyline from 2x08 soooo much. The way it's all one big connected net??? I LOVE SHIT LIKE THAT! Also that storyline gave us so much!! We got to see Carlos' rocky relationship with his dad, we got that wonderful Owen and Carlos scene, we saw him putting aside everything to look for TK, the way he shifted into detective mode and didn't stop until he had TK back, MY FAVOURITE HUG IN THE ENTIRE SHOW!!!! I WAS FED THAT EPISODE!!! I love love love that storyline so much ahhhhhhhhhh!!! Carlos was so good in it and I lose my mind a little every time I rewatch it. I just really really love the "throwing aside everything to save the person you love" trope. Maybe I should unpack why with a therapist but it's too early in the morning for that right now

[forest-hashira]

HIII FALLON HIIII!!!!!!!!! SORRY I'M A BIT LATE TO THE PARTY SO IDK IF YOU'VE ANSWERED THESE ALREADY BUT I WANNA ASK!!!! SO SO SO LETTERS FROM THE SELFSHIP GAMEE:333 how about B & J & U for satoru aaand B & Q & T for suguru??? - @teddybeartoji

HIIIIIIIII MICKEYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!! I HAVEN'T ANSWERED THESE YET DW

satomochi

B - Bashful what’s something one finds embarrassing about themselves but the other finds adorable?

genuinely i can't think of a single thing satoru would be embarrassed about... before we got together, at least. after we get together, i think he gets a little self conscious about his public persona, because he knows that i can get overwhelmed easily, but i think his exuberance is very endearing.

i get embarrassed by my laugh sometimes, because it can be really loud and i feel like it's a little obnoxious from time to time, but he loves it. he likes knowing when i'm happy and enjoying myself.

J - Jealousy do they get jealous easily? What do they do when jealous?

he does get jealous! but he tends to just pout when he's jealous, not much else. sometimes he drapes himself over me if he thinks people are getting too close, but he rarely says anything. i also get jealous sometimes bc people are always vying his for attention, but i also rarely say anything, just wrap myself around his arm and pout.

U - Unaccustomed what’s something they had to get used to once they got together?

i was not used to spending time with extroverts, and he was not used to spending time with someone as introverted as i am 😭 it was a learning curve for both of us

suguangel

B - Bashful what’s something one finds embarrassing about themselves but the other finds adorable?

i think sometimes he gets embarrassed about how much of a mother hen he can be, but i like being fussed over. he likes the way i talk with my hands even though i worry that it makes me seem over dramatic.

Q - Quiver what’s something they do that makes the other flustered?

he gets flustered when i cross my arms & it accentuates my cleavage (it's not even on purpose, i am just Excessively Boobied 😔). when he holds a hair tie in his mouth to pull his hair back, and his shirt rides up when lifts his arms? i'm blushing like a tomato and sweating.

T - Touchy do they like PDA? How do they like to cuddle?

we hold hands in public, and he doesn't complain when i lean on him, but that's about the extent of our PDA (unless he's feeling especially protective/possessive, then he wraps an arm around me and holds me close). i love any kind of cuddling, but his favorite is when i'm sitting curled up in his lap on the couch. he loves how much smaller i am than him.

selfship alphabet asks!

WIP word game: Hope, unwilling, anxious, and unresponsive?

✨ send me a word & find it in my wip! ✨

And Maverick believes it with every shred of hope left in him, every piece of love tied in knots so tight he can’t quite untie them, but experience is a harsher, crueler teacher, and its lessons are much more easily recalled.

And, while Maverick is unwilling to lead when he’s unsure of how to reach the destination, he’s even more against letting their chances pass without making a grab for them.

Bradley often wants to insist that Mav should go to bed first, eyes always anxious upon his godfather, but he doesn’t- because how could such insistence seem appropriate in the wake of so many years of anger and regrets?

and regretfully i don't (yet !!!!!;) have anything for unresponsive!

ME AFTWR

Oh dear lmao I didn’t notice, too busy staring at that art to look at what your main was 🧍🏻‍♂️

"Mom?"

A gentle voice asks. It was Kasumi she was looking for Ei. The demoness' eyes look around worriedly. She hurriedly walked through their house.

Ei had been sparring with one of her guards as a pastime. She'd stopped, however, as soon as she heard the call. Their blades meet with a loud clang as they both turn towards the door. The guard leaves first, opening the door to the room and stepping out to greet Kasumi. "Your mother is inside."

The Devan wedding AJSJSJWJWKWKW. I'll be watching with my suit on!!!!

How are you feeling about their comeback?

I've got my 12th class shit to jiggle and my brain is fixating on Dan and Phil sooo intensely!!!!!

I feel so lucky that I found them from your Tumblr. I recently re watched Basically I'm Gay after about a year and realised just how much of a positive impact Dan had on me, whether it be regarding my mental health or my queernes. He introduced me to the concept of ambiguous queerness. At that time I was set on figuring out the nitty gritty of my identity and I used to obsess and panic SO MUCH.And now I am chill with not just being simultaneously a lesbian and ace (still unsure) but also questioning my gender. Just vibing as a formless blob in Dan's words.

And mentally I was Struggling. Watching Dan discuss that stuff made me feel so understood. When he said he attempted suicide and didn't tell anyone I felt that. And him saying the future is better and QUEER gives me so much hope to keep trying. Him talking about how you can actually IMPROVE your mental health instead of just drowning in the suffering made me start trying to get help. And I even have a therapist now, which felt impossible to me at the time. All because I kept learning about it and did all the difficult stuff to get here.

I would never be who I am or where I am if it wasn't for my beloved Internet Queers<3 and people who discuss mental health.He was the first one to be both.

I cannot thank you enough for introducing me to Dan and Phil.I love them so much.

Thank you Dani <333
