Do Vanida and Whitney ever switch? What’s their sexual dynamic like?

ANON I WANT YOU TO KNOW I SPENT A LONG TIME THINKING ABOUT THIS- but yes, let me unlock my essay length explanation of their sexual dynamics

SO!! Whitney and Vanida's sexual dynamic is like... pretty set in stone, after dating for like almost 2-3 years since 2nd Year / Sophmore Year! While they had one or two sexually explicit encounters Freshman / 1st Year ( Whitney making Vanida suck her dick ), their sexual dynamic wasn't really established just yet. Since that time was just.... bully and the victim who kept trying to see the good in the bully LMAO

Even when they started 'dating' ( Whitney declaring them girlfriends but Vanida thinking Whitney is joking ), there were some tumbles around their sexual dynamic. I feel like Whitney kept wanting to explore and see more of Vanida's vulnerabilities like the night they got drunk and had sex, but Vanida was a shut & locked door; which made sex quick and not like... as passionate as it could be.

Vanida didn't really trust Whitney, so intimacy was often for show on her end and Whitney sensed that and it annoyed the HELL out of her.

I feel like after the 'Whitney points a gun at Bailey' is when their sexual dynamic starts forming more properly. Like, now, Vanida feels and knows now that she can trust Whitney and Whitney is like, a stable figure, that she is more willing to open herself sexually with Whitney which shifts their entire dynamic.

Which, I'm sure some can guess, their sexual dynamic often involves Whitney taking charge, being the one who is in a more dominant role when it comes to sex while Vanida often takes a submissive, almost needy side. ( Though only with Whitney ) Vanida, as someone who lies almost 24/7, keeping a mask on, always having to take control of her situations and everyone around her; the core of her sexual dynamic with Whitney is that she is able to let go and have someone else care to her needs. She doesn't need to put a front on, and can be whoever she wants to be, because she feels secure enough that Whitney loves her no matter what. And in turn, this a deep turn on for Whitney, who tried for so long to see what was under Vanida's skin and desired to see her vulnerable and open.

It is even MORE of a turn on for Whitney, knowing Vanida is only a true submissive with her. And the fact that like, Vanida fake moans with everyone else she has sex with ( more loud and giggly ) while she moans for real with Whitney ( more quiet, whimpering, breathy ).

Whitney likes having control in their dynamic, too, because it is an affirmation of Vanida's desire for only her; and satiates her possessive clinginess. She also sees how it makes Vanida feel better and brightens her day, so like!!! DOUBLE WIN!!

I feel like the only time they would switch dynamics where Vanida is in control in the bedroom, is if Vanida was like... particularly upset. Maybe someone trying to claim Whitney as theirs, or trying to put a claim on her. She'd take control, asking Whitney to either reassure her that she is theirs, or asking Whitney to say "I'm yours": which both, I imagine make Whitney lowkey giggly. Like WOW, you want me sooo bad ( she wants vani just as bad )

Though anon, if you mean penetration-wise? I don't think they'll switch that up LMAO

Maybe Vanida suggested it once, but I don't think Whitney would ever agree to that. Like yeah yeah, g-spot in the prostrate whatever, but she does NAWT like being reduced to a whimpery, crying mess. And Vanida is also lowkey against it too, because if Whitney's cum goes anywhere that isn't in her, or on her, she's going to get upset. ( Vanida is a 'remove condom' fiend, but it's okay she takes contraceptive pills )

WHICH!! THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME RANT ANON, I HOPE I ANSWERED SUFFICENTLY!

which also, whitvani possessive in-game moment for you

Me, episode 1: Oh, a relatable protag! And a relatable female protag, at that. Sweet! That never happens.

Me, a few episodes in: Wait, the protag really is going to be my character? The one I identify with the most? Seriously? It's not going to be a strange, at least somewhat sinister, seemingly hostile male side character? It's gonna be a female character and the protagonist? That's insane, that literally never happens... what's the catch??

Me, more than halfway through the season: ... huh, I guess Maomao really is it. Okay, then ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Me to myself, after episodes 22/23:

[findafight]

Just wanted to let you know that I have not been able to stop thinking about your Steve/Barb au it's so good!! and so interesting to think about how that would change things!! Idk rare pairs are so fun to think about!

Forgive me if this is not where you were going with this but I'm thinking about Barb surviving the demogorgons attack because she's not in the pool with a cut hand. Barb doesn't know where she is or what happened to her, but she's scared and she knows that /something/ is hunting her. Everything smells like rot and decay and all she's focused on is survival. Her glasses are broken and gone, and she's sprained an ankle, but she's alive. Steve's sweatshirt is warm and still smells like him. It's a comfort, she thinks, as she runs and hides in the woods behind Steve's house.

Topside Steve is getting sucked into the Upside down stuff way earlier because his sort of (they haven't made it official yet) girlfriend is missing after leaving his house and she wouldn't just dissapear like that. And he's scared but he has to do /something/.

After some time in the Upside Down, God knows how long, Barb hears something. And it doesn't sound like the monster that's hunting her. So she stays silent, grabs hold of a stick or something to make herself feel safer, and peeks. And it's a boy. Alive. Human. Trapped just like her. And then for a while it's her and Will Byers, growing weaker and trying so hard to stay alive and let people know they're there.

Eventually, they get out. And she's sick and barely holding on and traumatized but she's alive and in the hospital recovering. As soon as Steve's allowed to see her he's there. He's bought flowers and a fluffy teddy bear. He calls her Barbie because he knows she'll roll her eyes fondly at him. He kisses her forehead and holds her hand.

Sorry this isn't more coherent I'm just !!!!!! Thoughts!!!!!

Are you in my brain?? Because exactly. (I have been holding on to "steve is the only one allowed to call her barbie" for way too long. not even romantically just in "barb lives au" they deserve to be annoying friends to each other haha) In the show Barb almost got away, and possibly would have it weren't for the fact she was in the pool, so I don't think it's too far of a stretch for us to say she survives in this au (there is a version where she dies and it's just. Angst. But that's not this one!)

I think the potential for Nancy to suspect Steve of doing something (even when it was Jonathan who is officially the last person to see her) would lead her to Jonathan. Similar to the show, she sort of just...brushes off the creepy pictures (it's both easier and hard for her here because it's not her in the pictures so who cares...but it's Barb [and Steve] so she cares very much, actually) and they go monster hunting without Steve and see the deer and Nancy gets pulled in through the tree etc.

Steve, who's definitely freaking out that is (basically) girlfriend is missing and her best friend is mad at him and won't talk to him, uses his ninja skills to check on her to see if she's okay, and sees her with Jonathan. Nancy isn't his girlfriend so the only thing he's mad about is her hanging out with the perv who took pictures of him and Barb and specifically a picture of her almost in her car which they know she never got into. So he knocks on the window and they jump but let him in. And that's how Steve gets into monster hunting. (idk if Tommy and Carol also join...maybe Steve waves them off through the window, maybe he gestures for them to come to...idk. much to think about. Maybe they don't join the upside down gang but they remain friends with Steve and know Something Happened, but he can't tell them what)

blah blah blah it all basically goes the same except because no cheating allegations there's no graffiti or fight, Steve 100% gives a backhanded apology for breaking Jon's camera "Hey, man. I shouldn't have broken your camera like that even if you deserved it..." or something. The trio fight the demogrogon, even if Steve is a bit, ah, weary of leaving a bunch of twelve-year-olds who have proven that they don't listen to grown ups when they say to leave well enough alone even for their own safety...but leave them he does. Fight an interdimensional monster with a nailbat he does. Dies, he doesn't.

Meanwhile, now that our girl Barb has survived he initial confrontation with the monster with no face, she's wandering, hiding, around the woods behind Steve's house except...it's not actually Steve's house. It's some twisted up version, and it's dark and creepy and oh so scary. Her glasses are cracked through one lens but it's better than not being able to see at all or not feel the comforting weight on her nose, and Steve's sweatshirt is big, comfy, and smells like him. She holds onto these tiny bits of home as she tries to figure out how to get out of...wherever she is.

At some point, she hears shuffling in the woods, but not from the monster. It's definitely smaller, and...there's a voice. Singing. She walks over quietly, and says "hi". the little boy jumps and stares, wide-eyed. They stick together, she holds him close.

When all is said and done, she and Will end up sharing a hospital room, due to Upside Down convenience. She;s older and wasn't in it for as long, but she's still weak. Her parents are besides themselves, having been told it was a gas leak that led her to be disoriented and lost in the woods, only by grace of god did she find and help Will.

Steve is behind them, with scratches on his face and a haunted look in his eye, but he smiles a little, and wiggles his fingers at her. She wiggles hers back. Her parents shuffle around, and leave the room to talk to the doctor. He sits beside her and reaches out to gently fiddle with her fingers.

"Hey," she says.

His voice is soft, when he responds, "hey," and doesn't take his eyes off her face.

She squeezes his fingers a bit. "heard you fought an interdimensional monster with, like, a lot of teeth for me."

He shrugs, squeezes back. "also to get Will Byers back."

"He's a good kid." she flicks her eyes to where little Will is being smothered by his gaggle of friends who nearly died trying to get him back.

Steve blinks rapidly, and tucks his chin to his chest. "I was so worried, Barbie." the nickname usually annoys Barb, too baby-ish, too connected to the doll, too...a lot of things. But Steve says it like it's precious, like she's precious, and she thinks letting her boyfriend (because that's what he is, isn't he? What's a boy you kiss and who would fight monsters to find you?) can call her Barbie.

"I'm back. I'm okay now."

"Yeah. But. Christ, things could have gone so much worse." He pinches the bridge of his nose, squeezes his eyes shut.

"Hey." she rubs the back of his hand with her thumb. "Hey. It didn't though. The government goons will be on us, sure. But Will is safe. I'm safe. All those kids and Nancy and Jonathan are safe. You're safe. Okay? And, when I get out of here, you're taking me out for burgers and milkshakes."

He smiles, actually smiles all squinty-eyed and toothy, "Yeah. okay. It's a date."

"Yeah, it is. I've got high expectations, Harrington. Killing a monster for a girl really sets the bar high, you know."

He laughs, and presses a kiss to her cheek, smiling.

(later, he tells her everything that happened on the rightside up, and she tells Jonathan to burn the negatives and that her boyfriend has a nailbat he's pretty good with, so he better not try to trick her...)

and idk. i think they're cute. They bicker, and Steve chooses topics just to rile her up so she'll roll her eyes at him but then explain why exactly he's wrong in step-by-step detail, and he also scoops her up and twirls her around and kisses her in the halls. they're gross and in love. In s2, i think Nancy still wants to expose the lab (other people did die, those hunters? what happened to them?) and both steve and barb are like "they will kill us" (pragmatic duo) so that's why they both go to nancy's to try to talk to her about it, which is how dustin kidnaps them, etc.

s3 we get scoops troop except robin is just tallying how many times Steve sighs dreamily until his gf comes by and he turns into a golden retriever and robin is like. ew. straight people (they are not, actually. I have a coming out scene between starb (seriously i need to figure out a ship name for them haha) that involves barb telling steve she once had a crush on nancy and steve's like yes obviously everybody has crushes on their best friend of the same gender you just don't do anything about it...like buddy...do i have news for you...bi4bi starbara) anyways the five of them get stuck in the elevator, stobin still hold the door, get tortured, etc, but this time dustin and erica have Angry Protective GF on their side. They get out, steve and robin have bathroom confessionals, which involves robin asking if steve's ever been in love and then immediately realizing he's going to wax poetic about Barb and steve also being like "i wanna be your best friend sooo bad barb said i maybe have a crush on you but i don't i wanna be like, the best man at your wedding, y'know? you're so fun and make me laugh and I want you and Barb to get along because I love Barbie and omg you could be my kids' auntieeee..." and robin tells him that he doesn't know her, and if he did he wouldn't want her around any of his hypothetical future children, tells him about tammy, and they sing total eclipse of the heart when dustin erica and barb bust in, and steve is like "barbie, honey pie, robin is gonna be our kids' godmother." as though that makes any sense. everyone else is like ????

idk i just like monster fighting power couple barb/steve a lot i think theyre neat.

Are you still looking for sketch prompts?

Ya I'll take some

[feral-ass-raccoon]

i'm bored as shit. have some random genderfuckery tricks i like to pull in public because it's funny

[just for some context: i'm like a stereotypical white girl. barely above 5', pale as hell, round faced, and i have blonde hair/blue eyes. i look like a fucking 6th grader. i do all of these as much as possible and i've had at least 4 different people do double-takes when they see me]

1] i dress in faded colors. like not super bright, not pale/pastel, buy i wear a lot of green, purple, black/grey, and sometimes blue. maybe not a big deal but it does mean i don't blend in easily w/ other girls at like. the mall nd shit

2] i do the Man Sit. you know the one where they have their legs spread wide and they lean forward w/ their elbows on their thighs and clasp their hands?? yeah, that. hell even just sitting with my feet apart.

3] sometimes i wear makeup but it's. JUST a little bit of eyeliner. i spend maybe five minutes on it. it's usually a day or two old. i simply do not care but some people look at me weird??? idk but it's funny

4] i look people in the eyes* when i'm walking. usually bc i'm staring at wherever i'm going but sometimes someone will make eye contact and i don't bother looking away. they usually do lmao

5] usually when i'm out with friends i'm the shortest one there [85% of my friends are taller than me by at least 6 inches. sobs.] but like. it's not a huge deal until i'm walking with 4 other people that are all a foot above me in height and ig that's confusing for some people. again idk why this works

6] i never rember my glasses but i don't wanna make it obvious, so i don't squint per se??? but like i do kinda narrow my eyes and apparently it looks like i'm staring something/someone down. according to a friend. so maybe i can actually pull off a death glare

anyways. yeah i've had a grown ass man look personally offended because i walked by and didn't acknowledge him and that was way too much of an ego boost for 7th grade raccoon <3

The love/hate relationship with my coworkers is so real lmao like why are they like this

[twpsyn-who]

Soulmate AU of sorts? Like, every subject of Ymir gets visited by the Godfather at some point during their life. The Godfather comes to the person “at the right moment” with a few ring models for the person to choose within (each ring is made with the respective person in mind and their personality/life, all made by Ymir herself). The one ring that gets chosen is then given to their soulmate by the Godfather. The whole idea is for the person to get their ring back from their soulmate when they meet (if they meet) (and for the soulmate to get their ring too from the person).

NO RING LOOKS ALIKE. EACH ONE IS UNIQUE, MADE SPECIFICALLY FOR THE PERSON.

IF the person doesn't like any of the rings, they can describe their dream ring to the Godfather. However, in that scenario the person doesn't get to see the ring until they meet their soulmate. IF the person refuses to choose a ring altogether (say they either don't believe in soulmates or have no interest in taking part of this), the Godfather decides for them. That's for in case the person changes their mind at some point.

The soulmates don't have to be strictly romantic or anything like that. The pair(s) are decided based on how compatible the two are, made by Ymir herself to help her subjects avoy the pain and suffering she went through for loving the king. They're perfectly made for each other so to say. Still, Ymir doesn't force anything on anyone. She just wants to help.

IF the soulmate isn't a subject of Ymir, then they don't get to choose a ring (for example, Niccolo doesn't choose a ring BUT gets Sasha’s ring. And Sasha doesn't get any ring, but she gets to choose hers). Theoretically speaking someone can have more soulmates, but the cases are extremely rare.

No ranting about JeanMarco with this one, mostly because I don't have much to say on the matter lol. Marco gets Jean's ring within a few weeks prior to enrolling and Jean gets Marco's ring two years into their training (because let's be honest, Jean at the very beginning wouldn't be ready for the realization that Marco's his soulmate. Jean after two whole years of friendship though?). I don't see Marco going around asking people about their ring and stuff, so he keeps it ‘secret’(he just doesn't open the subject). Is only when Jean goes to Marco and shows him the ring Godfather gave him that, you know, pieces start to fall into place. Marco doesn't even let Jean rant excitedly about it, he straight up pulls out the ring out of the pocket and pushes it in Jean's face. The whole situation is chaotic. I think. Too tired to think properly rn.

@pocket-size-cthulhu

I'm making a separate post bc I kind of sent myself down a rabbit hole. I wanna clarify that I am a Big Hozier Fan and that most country music is a different lyrical ballpark entirely bc of the nature of the genre. (If I had to describe it I'd say it's more literal and storytelling than the whole, like, in-the-woods poetry thing hozier's got going on.)

Anyway I tried to find some that have the same kind of poetry to them or at least aren't about dirt roads and, like, alcoholism. (this is very hard to do there are so many songs about drowning your sorrows in alcohol. I think maybe that's a bad thing but what do I know about songwriting)

Zach Bryan - Something in the Orange

Ryan Bingham - Wolves

Deana Carter - Strawberry Wine

Chris Stapleton - Tennessee Whiskey

Brooks and Dunn - Neon Moon

Uncle Lucius - Keep The Wolves Away

Juice Newton - Angel of the Morning

Johnny Cash - God's Gonna Cut You Down

The Band Perry - All Your Life

Lee Ann Womack - I Hope You Dance

Josh Turner - Would You Go With Me

I also have a few that I think just have generally clever lyrics that you probably won't enjoy very much if you don't like country music:

Rodney Atkins - If You're Going Through Hell

Sugarland - It Happens

Jessica Andrews - Who I Am

Billy Currington - People are crazy

Blake Shelton - Honeybee

Tim McGraw - Just to See You Smile

what kind of tags should I add to my tag index?

If you're one of the people who genuinely uses this gigantic blog of 30k+ posts as an archive for finding old Death Note things, feel free to drop me an ask or a comment here outlining any tags or types of posts that you wish were easier to find on your own (my current basic one is listed in my header under "tags"). Because I am definitely glad to have it treated as a fandom resource or whatever, and I'm thinking of updating my tags post soon to make it a bit more user-friendly for other people to sift through
