sorry if you've already mentioned but what (re?)ignited your love of comics/x-men/cherik? curious because there are so many different adaptations of them
i think im gonna speak for a few (or a lot of) people when i say that TL;DR the wolverine x deadpool movie that came out this summer is what pulled me back into comics and i COULD leave it there but i will go into excruciating and unnecessary detail instead because i love an origin story and i love oversharing.
under the cut tho because im nice sometimes (there's also wxdp doodles in here. if you want to see that)
ironically (and probably commonly), growing up i was more of an avengers kid. Kinda. Loosely <- binge watched the cartoons and movies and read copious amounts of comics and fics and i am hoarding fanart in my old dresser as we speak ok 'loosely' is a modest lie.
embarrassingly i remember getting into discus cause of captain america LMAO so yeah needless to say i was a Humble Fan- me joining my school's comic class/club didnt help either (shoutout to my teach from that she was the realest one out there for. A Multitude of reasons). she definitely is was inspires me to even draw still and make comics and i often think bout the tips i learned from her class tbh she was great
back to the movies t and comics tho, i got into em because my brother would offer to take me and that's how we'd hang out (i rarely saw movies in theaters and i even more rarely went anywhere as a teenager. still kinda like that today tbh ooops) and yk. it just snowballed after that.
my brother and i have always liked comics- he just more than me for a while (though he still very much loves comics and As We Know From My Posts we still talk about them whenever i see him To An Exhausting Degree)
durin then i was really into stony and i have a few surviving doodles i made but those are between me and god. and anyone who asks tbh LOL
'snap can you make this related to x-men again this is long' ok so fast forward to This Summer again I Still Don't Really See Movies but my brother offered to take me and this was the first time i'd actually seen an x-men movie in full
as a kid i only remember seeing the 'perfection' scene between erik and raven in first class while i was channel surfing. pretty sure i changed the channel after seeing mystique naked cause i was scared my parents would get mad at me if they caught me watching it LOL
BUT MOVING ON As A Kid i think it's also natural you'll sometimes watch 92 if it's on And I Did though evidently it didn't stick too hard (i do remember really liking beast and gambit though.... still do really): my knowledge of x-men was. INCREDIBLY sparse. like diabolically so so i didnt have too much expectations (aside from the fact i vaguely liked deadpool beforehand).
tbh i dont know why my bro never took me to see any of the x-men movies. it's not like he doesn't Also like x-men (90% sure nightcrawler's his favorite but my brother will be caught dead saying he has absolute favorites like that)- he owns a bitch load of deadpool comics/omnibus sets too (of which ive read over the years and reread this year) but Shrug moving on
Much Like Most Of The Internet i fell down the rabbit hole that way. i have some doodles i made a couple days after seeing WxDP that i now have an excuse to throw at all of you Look And Perceive
Tumblr media
and so. As I Do. i got curious and told myself i'd binge watch all the x-men movies the week before i went back to school And Then I Did ft. My Brother Sometimes and then i said i'd binge watch all of '92 and And I Did That ft. My Brother Sometimes But Less So and now we're here. currently watching Evolution...
once i got to school i realized i lived near a comic shop and started getting into the comics that way (the first ones i got since going down this rabbit hole was Magneto Was Right!, The Resurrection of Magneto, and The Trial of Magneto. if you were curious !!!!! clearly i didnt care too much about context i just needed to see My Guy jelvejlkvj i have no regrets and Evidently ive read more since)
i'm pretty sure what dragged me into cherik specifically was the fact i saw a clip of The Famous ending to 92 where erik's aghast at the notion jean even has to question his love for charles. i think that was what officially had me refocus my lens on them: not a single poolverine thought after that LOL (all the cherik posting i saw on twitter definitely helped too but that was the nail in the coffin for any other interests i had: i was locked into cherik and x-men in general now)
that clip specifically, i was surprised at the fact they- frequently even- have the x-men franchise say erik loves charles and vice versa so bluntly. even if it's not meant to be romantic, i fear im just a fan of how casually the word's thrown around with them two and i got tender bout it all. Then Yk. i just live for the drama. the hilarity even. the sincerity .... they make me sick if i think of them too long so im gonna end it here
before i go tho ironically enough, the first x-men issue i owned was This one (story a this is that while stuck in some wacko dimension charles accidentally gets himself trapped in logan's mind while utilizing his astral projection. if you were curious). pretty sure i got it for free with another comic set i got years ago since our old comic shop loved to do that, but it's poetic aint it. maybe ill doodle something referencing it..
Tumblr media
i should probably look into finishing this arc someday im Dummy curious to even know how it started and how it ends.....
#snap chats#usually this onea them posts i ramble bout in the tags but i have photos and this is Long long so .. i use the main body for once ...#sorry i gave a biography but i never talk to people and i also love typing. im one of those party can-of-worms i fear#i feel like i could talk about this forever because x-men itself has never been super prominent in my childhood#it was just kinda there in the background BUT comics themselves have always been with me. theyre a keystone to me i think#but yeah. x-men definitely sticks a lot harder than avengers does now OOPS this is not me taking shots i am just SAYING#i have a lot of old marvel doodles tbh .. i found an old deadpool one i remember drawing with my bro during a car ride#kinda funny how much my bro and i bond i dont think of it much but I Guess thats another reason why comics are special to me#we dont bond much- i dont bond with my fam in general tbh we're kinda. Isolated in a way LOL so its cool we're tight at least#if you wanna go deeper bout Comics And My Family my dad really liked comics growing up- more dc tho maybe#apparently he used to draw hulk a lot but if he did those drawings are loooong gone.. at least i know who to blame for me drawing#he loves superman tho. i remember id get embarrassed watching superhero cartoons and superman was on screen when he was around#for some reason i thought id get in trouble if he caught me watching superman but when he did once he was real happy so. tf wrong with me#he loves to say hes superman a lot and id be like Dad... Stop... LMAO but in the cheesiest way possible he do be my hero so. accurate ig#but yeah thats my origin story for why i like comics again thank you for reading if you actually read all that#and sorry it got all sappy Unfortunately i be like that sometimes. i am very emotionally constipated and i over explain a lot#ok i fr gonna end it here im gonna keep going by accident if i thinka any longer and i have stuff i still have to do

sorry if this comes off as weird, but I really, really appreciate the love and support and appreciation you give Vaggie. This really is my comfort blog. You actually see the depth her character has, you don’t just write her off as ‘bOrIng, ’ you say everything I think and feel about her, you actually appreciate ‘Whatever It Takes’ (Kimiko, too. 🤭). I don’t care if the whole damned fandom hates that beautiful angel - I love her and it’s so comforting to find others that love her, too, and don’t just jump to the overrated characters ( who happen to be men: Alastor, Adam, Vox, Lucifer, Angel. and I actually like Lucifer and Angel as characters. The other three can burn. 😁). Believe me when I say this: more Vaggie fans (and people in general) should find and see your blog.
You’re the real Vaggie MVP and I’m so happy to have found your blog. ❌💜
Whatever It Takes is suuuch a good song! I'm just such a sucker for ballad-y songs, and the lyrics in Vaggie's verse are just so damn sweet. I love how everytime it's her turn to sing the song turns even softer with a bit of music box notes in 'em. And yessss, love Kimiko even more for choosing it as her favorite
That's so sweet of you to say, I'm touched really! I usually hear compliments about my art or fics, so occasionally being thanked for this blog that shows the brunt of my unwell brainrot is kinda... reassuring? I'm sure my rambling can be a lil crazy sometimes.
It's come to my attention that apparently a lot of people aren't aware I write and draw too tho, so if you dont know about it yet maybe check out my chaggie fic and art too 😁

GRHSHSGNAHANAHSNSHSJSH HEYYYY HIIII YES YES OF COURSE!!!! YOUR WISH IS MY COMAND I LOOOOOVEEE THEM HEHEHE
GONNA DUMP SOME HEADCANONS AGAIN CUZ WHY TF NOT!!!
I dont think either of them actually COMMUNICATE the fact that they love each other- LIKE I MEAN for outsiders they don’t even look like they’re dating bcuz of how dry these bitches are yk!! No ilys before going to work or nothing!!! I’m convinced they both prefer to show their love through actions rather than constant reassurance!! 
Error’s love language is def gift giving (crocheting stuff, making dolls, stealing random stuff, yk the usual) and Nm’s is def acts of service :3 (checking in constantly, always stocking up on people’s favorite foods/snacks, cleaning up after his blorbos, ect)
Error is constantly making fun of Nightmare for writing in cursive, sorry chat i dont make the rules
OH AND THAT REMINDS ME THEY SOOOOOO BULLY EACH OTHER SOOOO DAMN MUCH!! 
Nm constantly bullies abt his TERRIBLE eyesight!! MY BROTHER IN CHRIST HOW R U FIGHTING N DODGING U ARE LEGALLY BLIND HELLO
THIS TOO TIES ALONG WITH THE FACT THEY DONT REALLY ACT LIKE A COUPLE WHEN THEYRE IN PUBLIC!!! Like what i mean is ur 100% gonna see them yelling and screaming at each other for some random ass shit like taking too long to pick an ice cream flavor but 2 seconds later ur gonna see them huddling up and eating their stupid ass ice scream like an old married couple
YES THEY R SOOOO OLD MEN YAOI!!! IM TALKING BOTH OF THEM ROTTING IN BED WITH A THOUSAND BLANKETS, WHILE NM READS THE PAPER OR BOOK AND ERROR KNITS!!! THEY R GRANDPAS IM SORRY
The first few times Error started visiting the castle THE MAN WAS ACTING LIKE A FUCKING RABID DOG— he did NOT like the concept of WALLS (safe to say a LOT of walls got gaster blastered)
AAAND on the topic of Error’s firts visits to the castle!! Nm used to constantly get jumpscared by Error hanging out in the most random places imaginable!! On top of the fridge? He’s there! In random hallways inside the library? Comfy! Perched up in a hammock on the ceiling of the living room? Yes sir!! Nm doesn’t get jumpy abt it since he just kinda got used to it but the other residents of the castle are NOT happy about Error’s extremely odd chilling spots
I luv y’all for letting me yap abt my blorbos,, thank u for this opportunity wowwww!!! Also no doodle this time i didnt know what to draw lmaoooo :3

John’s hand closed on the holster of his pistol. Before he could draw, someone hauled the stranger back. Big, handsome man with a red bandana and a blue flannel shirt. He smiled at the stranger with very white teeth. “Jameson, why’re you bothering a kid for?” Jameson scowled. “Ain’t none of your business, Morgan. Fuck off.” “It’s the middle of the day and I’m angling for a quiet drink. You starting a fight ain’t gonna be so quiet,” Morgan said.

“You trying to get me in trouble, kid?” Arthur said as he slowed Boadicea to a walk. The skinny kid who Hosea and Dutch had fished out of some nowhere town out west scowled and straightened up in the saddle. He wasn’t much of a horseman—his ‘borrowed’ horse, the usually docile Lady May, snorted and chewed at the bit. If he’d stolen Lady May out from under the noses of everyone in camp though, he was in trouble. “Not a kid,” said the kid, sticking out his lower lip. “Name’s John.” “And how old are you, John?” Arthur gave John a pointed once-over.

He thinks of John last night, on his back flicking through the pages with the faintest look of wonder on his face. Of the way he’d clutched it close when Arthur had tried to pull it away. It’s enough to make his sore heart ache, and he wonders why he does this every time.

He moved to sit up and turned, looming over him. - A younger Arthur Morgan and John Marston take a job to track down a businessman's mistress and discover an affection for each other on the road that ends up giving them both what they need.

summary:
Second epilogue added   Arthur Morgan followed his own advice and left the gang when he had a child (the canonical Eliza and Isaac), taking up as a bounty hunter. Along the way he picked up a young John Marston, who thus never runs with Dutch. Despite leaving, Arthur never truly left his connections behind him, and when Dutch asked for help, he always answered. In 1899, during the event of the game, this arrangement might eventually force Arthur to choose to whom he truly owes his loyalty. John sneered. "You think I'd protect Dutch Van der Linde? Believe me, if I knew where he was, I'd tell you. Hell, I'd go get him myself. He's worth 10 large right now." Milton sneered right back. "I am not a fool, Mister Marston, kindly do not treat me as one. You would do nothing without Arthur Morgan's say-so, and that will be what puts you on the gallows right beside him."

summary:
John's been avoiding Arthur for years, much to Arthur's confusion. A blizzard rolls in when they're riding back to the gang after a job and now they gotta find a way to keep warm while cooped up in a tiny shack to wait out the storm. Naturally, some secrets are revealed.

Im sorry its me here to ramble again with theories, im the anon from this post: https://www.tumblr.com/just-antithings/760668728332632064/i-have-a-theory-that-the-rise-of-antis-are-also
The more i think about it, I feel like the rise of products defining people alongside parasocial relationships is also part of the issue with the rise of antis. Specifically antis that sort of have a certain character as their aesthetic / account theme.
Products usually are advertised as a certain way to achieve certain results, for example a cologne for masculine wealthy men and as a result that tends to make some people believe "if i have that product and use then people will be perceived as more masculine and wealthy" and when it's advertised with a celebrity then some people will think "i will be more similar to the celebrity"
Which products make sense but with Internet leaning more and more about "Post stuff, gain followers and Get sponsors" now instead of tv advertiments its also anyone who's sponsored but the difference between online and TV.. you know when the advertiment starts and ends. It never really ends online.
So then people newer to the Internet that's constantly filled with advertisements will start making that association to random things like "If my favourite youtuber likes this then if i like this I'll be more like them".. "if my fav artist has this equipment i can draw like them" but this also means whatever their favourite youtuber hates some viewers will also hate it to be more like their fav youtuber. They can't separate advertisements and a non advertisement, its no longer clear because on TV you had "TV show, AD, Ad, Ad, Ad, Tv show and credits, Ad Ad Ad, New tv show..." where you knew where your entertainment started and the advertising began. Online its all blended together. A product is something that people are encouraged to want, the person using the product is what they wanr you to aspire to be a certain way but entertainment isn't meant to aspire you to be a certain way, its not promoting anything. Its just there to make you feel something.
Then with my previous theory of parasocial relationships and fictional characters well.. very easily some antis will let their interests and those they associate with define them as a person. Its not that far of a reach to assume that when they have a favourite character they also let it define them, How others view the character is important to them, like a form of projection. "This is my favourite character, I like this character and will talk about this character" then have their profile filled with images of that character.. just like how people perceive themselves or others while having or using certain products being 'better'or 'wealthy' the anti will now perceive themselves as "people like this character, I like this character and i have this character on my profile so people must also like me the same way i like this character" but then the issue is that unlike an advertisement where there's very specific push to certain ways to be seen.. characters are not perceived the same by everyone.
So when they see people writing fanfictions they do not see the character being like they perceive the character as... the character is 'different'so they are upset, to them it is personal and that they assume its bad faith because "Everyone i know sees character as this, why dont they see character as this. Why are they writing this character 'wrong'." And if they do let their favourite character define them and they project onto the character.. well then it can quickly turn to "They must see me like this, they must want to do this to me just like my fav character " and so forth.
Which is also why antis cant handle the existence of people who are proship. To them it can feel like so hurtful because they make such a loud point of having that character as their profile 'aesthetic', they put so much effort and thought about it.. now someone else just 'casually'fucks their hardwork up. they believe that anyone who perceives character differently is a danger to the them (at least to their digital existence they created) and to them its ' damaging'. The thing is, its like damaging a brand.. because they made the character their brand their digital self, without realising that their perception is not the only way of seeing the character. So when someone makes a character in a adult/ minor ship and they use their the adult or minor then they feel like their being told 'hey this is how your perceived by this fanfic writer' and with how easily antis call others pedos.. well its not surprising their upset (absolutely NO reason to target people over those emotions and indulge those emotions with harmful actions)
Fuck i ramble a lot I'm sorry I swear this is the last one, theories are something i love. Obviously both theories are about extremes antis and a specific small portion. This is very likely me overthinking and not a correlation = causation but it is interesting just to consider that with both parasocial relationships and how corporate online spaces are that antis may accidentally be making their accounts like brands as a way to make it easier to gain 'friends' (followers) so when they put so much work into promoting their account then they realise its all pointless when someone writes a fanfic so they throw a fit.
Or Maybe im deluded and trying to feel empathy for them, trying to find any sort of explanation as to why so many antis are hostile when it comes to artistic expression when there is no explanation.
Thank you for allowing to me to ramble into your ask box, this is the digital version of me putting a letter in an empty glass bottle and throwing it to sea.

That anon you got about straight women liking m/m content while ignoring m/f or f/f pairings... Where to even start...
First of all, I'm a straight woman who doesn't like yaoi/slash/bl/whatever it's called now and never have so I see where you're going. But I understand why so many women prefer m/m overall.
Many women say they enjoy m/m content because it's devoid of gender roles and misogyny. I understand this. I've consumed straight romance (sometimes against my will) and there's so much bullshit in it like I'm sorry. My sister asked me to watch this period drama with her and literally pretty much every pairing starts with the man being sexist or rude in some way to the woman. And they literally bicker most of the time but it's supposed to be "sexual tension" or whatever until at some point they kiss and I guess everything is forgiven. Yay? I don't know what's exciting or good about any of this. This drama somehow managed to make 1800s europe devoid of racism but not sexism, so pretty much every male love interest is sexist in some way. I don't get why women don't write more romance where the males are actually respectful of their gender as a whole. Or perhaps I do and here's comes my other point: many women cannot conceptualize a world where men are actually women-loving.
Seriously, have you ever seen the weird trend of refering to fictional male characters that are actually loving and respectful towards their gfs as male lesbians, or their het relationship "lesbian-coded"? When I was younger, it used to piss me off when women would say they didnt write or draw m/f pairings because they didnt want to deal with sexism and gender roles, I was like "then write a world where men and women are seen as equals!!" But then I started writing myself and it's incredible how fake it will appear to write a male character respectful and loving of his gf AND her gender as a whole. Now I write and draw for myself so I do whatever I want no matter how silly or fake it is, but I would never publish any of that because I don't wanna deal with people telling me "men really don't act this way, you dont know how to write male characters :/" or "Oh I love the male love interest, he's such a malewife!!".
And yes, many gay male romance has them dealing with homophobia, but that's basically them against society/the world. You can tell they are still in it together, and they will choose each other any time even if that means getting ostracized by everyone. With het pairing and sexism is more like man against woman. She has to deal and fight for this man to see her (and perhaps her gender) as capable and worthy of respect so they can have a better relationship. It doesn't seem like they're in it together and the woman has to put all the effort so her man can see the error of his ways.
Why do you think there are many people who joke about how a male character seems to have more chemistry and rapport with another male character (usually a friend or mentor) than his supposed female love interest? Because they're written as equals with interesting traits and a relationship that surpasses many trials, while the female love interest is written as "the woman" - writers will avoid giving female characters interesting traits because they dont think they look good on female characters or believe women dont or shoudnt act a certain way. And believe me, i'm saying this as a woman that's very attracted to female characters - the majority of shows and movies I consume have (a) female main protagonist(s) and I prefer shows that have a bigger female cast. I also get attached to female characters even if they're "badly written" or whatever the fandom says idgf. Ive even watched a lot of those animes and manga that only have female characters, because I have a preference for women in fiction (and real life I guess)
The f/f stuff is another whole issue that it's not very related to this. Most women producing m/m content are straight so they will want to see at least one male in their pairing. F/f can't provide that for obvious reasons. This is like asking straight guys why they don't consume gay male porn if they like lesbian porn so much. It literally makes no sense. These men give the answer of why they like lesbian porn usually as "one woman is hot, two women is DOUBLE the hotness". Think about it like that with women; now they have two men to ogle at.
I had much more to write, specifically about the sexual part (since fanfiction is usually very romance/sex centered) and m/m vs m/f and f/f, but this got too long. Perhaps i'll write a second part.

How they act in front of the person they like/have a crush on!
Not proofread we die like men
Awase - he may be very brash and has a foul mouth but bro is silent when his crush is near. He doesn't know how to act lmao. Has probably accidentally reenacted the Mommy? Sorry. Meme
Sen - he tries to act normal but everything he says and does just seems dorkish for some reason lmao. Spent 45 minutes thinking about how his voice cracked when he answered a question
Kamakiri - he yells a little less but thats about it. If anyone asks what he thinks about his crush he will say he hates them (when he doesn't)
Kuroiro - blushing and can barely get a sentence out. Poor dude. He by far becomes like 5x more poetic around his crush
Kendo - starts overthinking every little interaction between her and her crush but she would rather die then let people know shes worrying so much about how they picked up their pen this morning lmaoo
Kodai - she starts doing little insignificant things for them just to make their day a little easier. But for the most part she acts normal
Komori - she always has this big smile when their around <3 she tends to trip up on her words and such while talking to them
Shiozaki - shes always a little more akward and a little less social when theyre around simply because shes nervous of what they think of her ykyk. She definitely puts a little more into how she looks each day when theyre around.
Shishida - for as long as his crush is in japan they will not be allowed to open any doors themselves. Shishida will always be there to do it for them.
Shoda - dude can barely talk to people normally you think he can talk to someone he likes? No. But he does leave nice anonymous notes in your locker for you to find.
Pony - she gets nervous and just starts talking and rambling about who knows what to the point her throat starts to hurt lmao.
Tsubaraba - he immediately becomes 20x dummer when his crush is nearby and what makes it worse is he will do crazy shit to try and impress them but it always backfires.
Tetsutetsu - hes constantly trying to prove to his crush how manly he is. Its at the point where if he finds a jar thats a little too hard to open he has to wait til they are in the room until he can open it.
Tokage - she tries to stay her usual social and outgoing self but she does get a little self conscious when theyre around. Shes worried they dont like her for who knows why
Manga - other than trying to make his crush laugh a little more each day he tends to draw them a lot. (He would probably die of embarrassment if he showed them the pictures tho.)
Honenuki - hes the only one here that stays 100% normal honestly. No one would be able to tell he likes someone unless he straight up told them.
Bondo - poor dude freezes up completely when his crush is near. While some of the others are worried that their crush doesnt like them hes worried that his crush thinks bondo hates them because of how he freezes up and such
Monoma - he is meanly nice to them. He would walk up to his crush after training or something and say 'bakugous incompetence is the only reason your stupidly brilliant plan worked. So good job reading his inability to see past your tricks' or whatever
Reiko - if she has a crush on someone she tries to avoid them at all costs lmao. After a few weeks she will slowly approach them and try to start a conversation but it doesnt turn out well
Rin - bros biggest fear is accidentally saying something that makes him sound stupid honestly. He works hard to be a hero and he wants to show it off it front of his crush but at the same time he doesnt want to seem bitchy yk?
I rlly loved this interaction between them its just so shcustelfbdmkdidsndkfksh <3<3<3<3<3

Omg I have fallen in love with your art style. Astarion looks so gender in it, have you ever thought about drawing Gale or Haldrin?
I assume that's a typo and you mean Halsin. And funny that you mention him because on my personal blog I just said that I need to learn how to properly draw big hairy muscular men and Halsin is the perfect subject for that 😳 so yeah Halsin art is coming. And about Gale, I dont know you're not the first to ask and I like Gale but I am not crazy about him and usually if I am lukewarm about a character I don't draw them because apparently I am driven by obsession. I am not saying no, but let's say that Gale is on the bottom of the list (sorry Gale lovers 😔)

Hello ! Can you share with us some sylett headcanons ? Why are you like the ship and etc ? Are you just make fanart or you write fanfic too ?...man i,like, asking three things on the same ask, sorry.
I wish to have the skills to write any FF. I have no cash to commission. Sadly I can only hope any sylas x sett ff may appear on ao3. I draw Fanarts only when I have time now.
Sylas and sett headcanons :
Sylas has no experience in relationships, unlike Sett
Sett mom always 1# !! Always no matter what
both of them have awful childhoods this is something they have in common
Sylas is Bi ,Sett is Bi/Pan
i HC sett has a bad experience in previous relationships, both women and men (duh ) He gives 200 % of himself when the relationship didnt work out.It leaves him mentally dry.
Sett has daddy issues
Sett is not open at first. He is big and scary- it takes time for him to find friends.
Sylas for him is easy finding friends, but corny af when it comes to flirting.
Sett can be a cocky jerk, the same as Sylas. LOL when they fight is pure roasting.
Sett is really talkative about his issues with partner,but Sylas is not really open about his problems
Sylas loves touch/ hugs from sett (nobody touches him for 15 years because of his" stealing magic power ")
Sylas loves to call sett "kitten" when they are alone (duuuuuuuh )
Sett loves to bake and he is good at it, unlike Sylas, but he try
Sylas loves animals
Both love cakes overall sweet things
Book worms - especially corny romance books
Sylas loves sett's mom, but he is scared of her
They both put effort into this relationships, *cough *
I think they both want to work out and be together
both of them go to the Gym ( thank u vyl for this HC)
Sylas has a pet lizard "Ghost"
Sylas and Jinx are BFF, both are chaotic. They both rebel but usually jinx puts them in trouble.
i like to think Sylas and Lux are ex. this is a complicated relationship ( please no shade to shippers, your ship is super valid <3 Those are just silly hc)
Lux and Jinx together, lux is not happy Jinx hangs out with Sylas.
sett can be jealous more often than Sylas
Sett has tons of furr, he just shaves often. He didnt like his animal side, but later accepted this, Why do i ship them? Truth be told at first it was from pure boredom. I want to move from OV fandom - the community and game kind of was dying back there. I started to check Sylas and Sett's stuff and they of they fit together. Later I saw they have a lot in common and Sett has unused Sylas abilities. Yep, it became my OTP.I think this could work out if they got a chance, but things have changed and so do I. I distance myself from LOL. The community is unbearable right now, Thooo i have nice memories.... I dont know what the future holds.

“please don’t portray us like that” your experience is not universal babe, some of us ARE like that. and by us i mean queer men. you don’t have to read or enjoy anything you don’t like, but people writing or drawing ships in a way that doesn’t reflect your experience as a mlm person isn’t fetishization, it’s literally just people having a different experience. block if it’s triggering, ignore if it isn’t, stop making your hang ups other people’s problem. you don’t know the identities of the people you’re criticizing, and you don’t speak for all queer men.
i know i dont speak for all queer men, and quite frankly i didnt want it to sound that way. if i did, im incredibly sorry, it was not my intention to do so. i was speaking mostly for the men that, whenever they raise their opinions or problems with fiction and how gay relationships are portrayed they are instantly looked down on and called crybabies.
i absolutely understand that no gay relashionship is cookie cut and exactly the same with the exact same dynamic every time. i know that yours experience is gonna be different from mine. but thats exactly why i made that post
if you rendition of the same ship changes completely depending on whos the top and whos the bottom for it to fit the stereotypical gender roles - i am allowed want a discussion about it. if your characters basically flip their personalities depending on who who you decide will look more masculine and whos gonna look more feminine - i am allowed want a discussion about it and not be harassed into silence.
i wont have a problem if you have completely different hc than me, you do you and i know that they usually come from personal experience. but as i said, this is not about people with headcannons or one rendition of a ship - this is about people who completely change how two characters in a ship act and look based solely on their sexual position that they assign them based on a fic or an au.
again, im really sorry for using language that would insinuate that i am speaking for all queer man in this fandom - it was not my intention.

Hello! about your malevolent ask
[long ass answer- many apologies]
its a slightly goofy, sort of horror soap opera, in the vein of call of cthulu/tma. I dont find it Super Scary, but idk what your milage for horror is.
The overarching plot is drivin by the patrions (sp sorry), in the style of a choose your own adventure novel- you can usually tell where the choices are; it'll be something like 'omg arthur, we're at a crossroads- do we go left, to the evil cavern (where the horrors live) or right, to the evil woods (more horrors).' You can also hear more overt RPG stylings in the beginning- dice roll sounds for perception checks, etc. These do fade out after the first season.
Rough outline (some spoilers): John (a spirit/demon type guy) possesses Arthur (a detective from Arkham MA) and, in doing so, takes over his eyes. Now Arthur must navigate the world with only the guidance of the voice in his head. Horrors unfold, walls are walked into the boys are in their get-along consciousness. Think venom, if both of them were way bitchier and prone to swearing. and also eddy was blind.
IS IT GAY: Yes and no. If its a friendship, its really intense- but cannonicaly it has been very firmly stated that they are just friends. However, the relationship is intertwined and deep enough that many people consider it to be queerplatonic- Arthur being aromantic is a very popular interpretation, if that sweetens the pot for you (idk how loosely you're using gay here). Glib answer: its pretty queer, but no kissing.
COOL STUFF:
-A dramatic, intense relationship between a guy and the dude who lives in his head. They argue ( my god how they argue) they make up, they argue again.
-The saddest little english man (arthur) gets chucked off cliffs multiple times. Do you like men whimpering? This is the podcast for you!
-Very impressive voice acting: the writer voices absolutely everyone in the podcast (yes. everyone) and its genuinely almost unnoticeable. You really do have to have it pointed out to you.
-Fun, slightly campy (in the way of an rpg campaign) Lovecraft style horror
-Lovely piano soundtrack
-A gentleman called the butcher shows up in- what season 3? maybe?- and I adore him. Go singing irishman go. You get that violent homoeroticism.
Drawbacks:
Again, I don't really know your taste, but these are some of the things that might turn someone off from listening. YMMV etc.
-LOUD. If you dont like gentlemen yelling DIRECTLY AND ANGRILY INTO THE MIC then this is not for you. If you do like that, then you are about the have the time of your life. There is also just. An incredible amount of panting/heavy breathing. Also directly into the mic, and at length. Like, an 'i am secretly watching gay pornography' amount. I had it going on a speaker once and my roommate had questions, kind of amount
-Almost no women characters: understandable, since a dude is voicing Literally Everyone- but it is something of a sausage fest. Women exist in universe, they just tend to move in the backround/be unvoiced. Lots of 'oh heres whats happened to her' sort of describing around the 'I can't voice a woman' issue. One old lady has a few voice lines and thats it.
-Kind of a soap: This is a draw for me ngl, but if you are looking for TMA 2: the magnusing- she isn't it. Its a LOT lighter than tma, writing wise, and isnt exactly hitting any crazy new twists in its plot (if you've read Any lovecraftian stuff you probably wont be super surprised by anything)BUT. Its still very fun. Two dudes sharing a body, detective roadship shenanigans. They might kiss! Might see some skinned bodies or something.
The dynamics can be a lil repetative (wake up break up back together) and the plot can be a little- ehhhh. due to it being yk, patrion controlled- but that can be fun- it's pretty heavily a choose your own adventure story at heart, so if your down with that (and the sillyness that comes with it) then you'll like it.
-Gore: pretty gory. I enjoy that sort of thing/ am not really effected by it BUT if that not your cup of tea, then you might wanna skedaddle.
🤠 thats all. Again, apologies for the very long answer.
First off- don’t apologize! This gave me everything I needed- thank you for the detailed answer to my question! Looks like I’m giving this podcast a listen- everyone wish me luck 😭

First line analysis
Rules: post the first lines of up to 10 of your last fics/chapters posted on AO3 or your WIPs and try to draw some conclusions.
Thanks for the tag @amiserableseriesofevents!!
Some drabbles
After dismissing his undergraduate class for the day, Gale begins the ritual of packing his materials into his worn leather bag when his doctoral supervisor pokes his head into the classroom.
The end of the war celebration roars with an explosive fervor, seeming as though there’s been a mutual agreement among the men to throw all restraint to the wind tonight.
The home team batter steps up to the plate to a roaring sea of cheers from the crowd. He taps the bat on the plate and takes position.
John breathes a sigh of relief when Our Baby appears in the sky.
Despite the sun having already dipped behind the horizon, the darkness does nothing to relieve the sweltering heat of the Texas summer as their small group makes the short walk to the bar off-base.
A minute from home (but I feel so far from it)
Dear Bucky, I've started writing this letter many times, but it's hard to know what to say.
Tires crunch on gravel as Bucky veers the truck off the main road of his hometown, navigating the back roads with familiar ease.
If it feels like love (then it must be love)
Weaving his way through the bustling crowd, Gale finds himself thankful for the conspicuous blue and yellow signs posted everywhere, guiding the incoming freshmen and their families toward the check in area.
As late-October creeps in, a crisp chill sharpens the air.
After assuring Gale that he can absolutely use John’s phone number, John makes it his mission to text Gale constantly for the remainder of the break.
When John arrives home, he’s barely stepped out of the car before his mom is wrapping him in a bone crushing hug.
On the evening of New Year’s Eve, Gale is immensely relieved to find out that the ‘party’ at Curt’s house is really more of a celebratory get-together between friends.
“Benny, I’m freaking out.” (Sneak peek, hehe)
First of all, “song lyrics (more song lyrics)” is apparently my go to format for titles, lol.
I’m realizing I rarely start with dialogue, though I dont necessarily think that’s a good or bad thing.
I usually start with some action or internal dialogue that simultaneously sets the scene a bit. (Especially if it feels like love chapters 3-5 “after, when, on”)
Each opening line is longer than I expected to be honest 😂
I’ll no pressure tag @valstarsandgalaxies @brotherwtf @butdaddyilovehim99. Sorry if you’ve already been tagged!
