#I have no motivation to do anything enjoyable

Hmm. Itā€™s less that Iā€™m always positive. Itā€™s more that I would like to hold on to things that make me happy.
I donā€™t think OPā€™s friend is wrong, exactly. I could have said all that better - Iā€™m sorry. I guess I got stuck on lack of compensation = lack of motivation and that seemed a little bleak for something they were apparently enjoying so much. Like, enjoyment as its own compensation. I canā€™t imagine investing so much of myself into something where my enjoyment was entirely dependent on feedback.
Do I like it? Love it? YES. But the story sounds like OPā€™s friend is getting the worst of things. Those assholes got what they asked for, but now the writer doesnā€™t have anything.
A writer friend told me something that broke my heart a little bit today; they're going to quit publishing their fanfic.
My instant thought was that they had been trolled or attacked or that something terrible had happened in their life because this person is so passionate about their writing. It wasn't any of that. Engagement with their works has been going down, as it has for many of us. Comments are like gold dust a lot of the time, and just looking through the historical comment counts on old fics on ao3 demonstrates this trend very clearly. It was not simply the comments dropping off which caused them to decide to stop posting, however.
My friend came across a discord server for their fandom (I should point out here that their fandom interest and mine diverged a couple of years ago, we stay in touch but don't currently read each other's posts because I'm not into their fandom and they would rather gouge their eyes out with a wooden spoon than read anything Star Wars) and specifically to share fic in that fandom. They joined, because we all love a good fic rec, only to discover that their latest multichapter fic, which has almost no comments and very few kudos, is being hotly discussed in this server as one of the best stories ever. Not one of these people has bothered to say this to them on the fic. When they asked, none of participants could see the point in telling the author of the fic they apparently loved so much that they love it.
This discovery has absolutely destroyed my friend's love of sharing fic. They share because they love seeing other people's enjoyment, and fic writers do that through comments and kudos/reblogs/likes because we don't get paid. There is no literary critic writing a blog post/article about how amazing the story is for us to copy and keep/frame. There is no money from royalties. All we have are the words of the people reading our works.
Those people on that server could have taken five minutes of the time they spent gushing about how amazing my friend's story was to other people and used it to tell the one person guaranteed to want to hear that praise how much they loved it. They could have taken a moment to express their opinion to the person who spent hours upon hours plotting, writing, editing, and posting those chapters. Instead, they deprived my friend of thing that keeps them sharing their writing, and in the process have killed their love of it. My friend now feels used and unmotivated.
I won't be sharing a link to their fic, they said I could share their experience but not their identity. I know they plan to post one final chapter. I know they intend to express their hurt at being excluded from the praise for the thing they created, and I know they intend to announce that as a consequence they will not be posting for a long while, if at all.
So please, I beg you, don't hide your love of a story from the writer. It's just about the only thing we have.

people are, of course, allowed to have their opinions and dislike whatever they please but a lot of criticism I see about epic not being a good adaptation boils down to people not realizing that 1) itā€™s a retelling BASED on the odyssey and was never actually meant to be an adaption, let alone a faithful one
and 2) even if it was, thatā€™s just the nature of how adaptions and retellings work. there will NEVER be a totally good and faithful adaption or retelling of the odyssey (movie, musical, ect) because there will ALWAYS be constraints of some kind.
so much shit happens in the odyssey and there isnā€™t a valid musical length that could go over it all. Jay cut out a lot and he STILL has issues with time (thatā€™s why you see so many people criticizing the fact that we donā€™t spend enough time with the crew before they die or calypso before odysseus leaves). Jay has spoken at length about all the things he TRIED to include but couldnā€™t because there wasnā€™t time to do them or because it didnā€™t narratively feel satisfying (the laestrygonians, for example, originally had a much bigger part, as did the lotus eaters).
which leads to my next pointā€” Jay prioritizes a satisfying and clear cut narrative over one that is authentic to the original story (which again is how MOST retellings go about it especially when their goal is to share the story with a wider audience!). Like Iā€™m sorry I love the odyssey and the Iliad but they arenā€™t a satisfying story/conclusion to me. and that doesnā€™t make them bad or worse; it makes sense that they feel this way considering theyā€™re PARTS of an overarching story that weā€™re missing crucial pieces of and, more importantly, ITS NOT A MODERN STORY AND THEREFORE IS NOT HELD UNDER THE WAY MODERN PEOPLE VIEW SATISFYING ARCS AND NARRATIVES!!! The odyssey is fantastic but it would literally never work as a modern musical and epic wouldnā€™t be enjoyable at all if Jay tried to be as accurate as possible.
Jay was inspired to tell a story about grief and what it means to be human interacting with that grief. obviously heā€™d have odysseus reveal his name to the cyclops because heā€™s angry and grieving instead of being prideful. obviously heā€™d have it so odysseus had to choose who died to zeus immediately after the cow was slain. obviously heā€™d make it so odysseusā€™ primary motivations surround his survivorā€™s guilt and missing his home over the more complicated and harder to express themes and motivations of odyssey!odysseus.
like I do understand the frustration of never getting an ā€œauthentic adaptationā€ but if you want something authentic thenā€¦ read the odyssey? you will never get something that is 100% authentic or scene to scene otherwise. you might get close, Iā€™ll definitely give you that, but SOMETHING has to give. a perfect adaptation to you will be missing something crucial to someone else and that will always be how it is.
life is so much more fun when youā€™re willing to enjoy art that has ā€œbased onā€ disclaimers literally everywhere as something separate (or you are just willing to enjoy adaptations/retellings separately to the source material in general). epic was NEVER intended on being seen as an accurate portrayal of odysseus and Jay never claimed it was. It really does feel like yā€™all are setting it up for failure by seeing it as something it was never meant to be and then getting upset that it isnā€™t accurate when no one ever said it would be.
maybe itā€™s just a me thing because Iā€™ve never had any issue separating media from their adaptions/retellings, even my favorite ones, but idk it just sucks seeing people say they have a ton of issues with epic and their issues are all just,,, itā€™s not accurate enough.
Idk if this makes sense or not but Iā€™m just rambling. like what you like, dislike what you dislike. Iā€™m not saying anyone is wrong or anything in how they feel or their preferences. I just think we should all be more open minded about these things idk

This is an entirely unrelated thing, but i had an idea for a ā€œcustomā€ follower forever ago that, if youā€™d like to hear, iā€™ve put below! warning: its fucking long and i dont have the time nor energy to make it real beyond thinking it out.
To begin with a few precursor things: i enjoy asshole characters, as we dont often see them as followers and they flesh out the world of the game in a nice way, and i enjoy characters that are relevant to specific plots within the game. If there are personal stakes involved, like serana with her story, it makes it all the more satisfying to look for dialogue and go through to the end of the quest with them.
And iā€™m also DEEPLY mentally ill about three things: castle Volkihar, moral ambiguity, and a guy named ronthil.
If youā€™ve never heard of him, i donā€™t blame you: heā€™s a vampire bosmer within clan Volkihar that does nothing but serve as a merchant and a speech trainer. His wiki is super fucking small and the unique thing about him is that heā€™s treated worse than dirt within the clan, making him sleep behind a bookshelf iirc. Heā€™s constantly staying on the good behavior to not get kicked out and making himself available to tasks. ur standard pathetic meow meow, so of course i like him.
Anyway my proposal was to turn Ronthil into a ā€œSerana dialogue add onā€ styled mod that changed some of his core motivations, re-contextualizing his people pleasing personality, offering players an additional perspective into clan volkiharā€™s inner workings, provide players who were already vampires a different start to dawnguard (because a vampire hunter approaching a vampire and said vampire going to the vampire hunterā€™s lair is suicidal stupidity at best), and finally provide a moderate voice for why somebody might wanna be a vampire and stay that way.
so the proposed changes start like this: Whether or not youā€™re a vampire, youā€™ll sometimes see a man wandering about at night along the roads. If youā€™re a human, he basically doesnā€™t interact with you.
If youā€™re a vampire, he makes the suggestion that something of value to the both of you has come to his attention recently, and if you were to help him heā€™d be more than generous with the earnings. Obviously this is an equivalent exchange, as he is considerably ill equipped to take on anything nasty, so youā€™ll have to do a lot of the heavy lifting as far as fighting goes. If you agree, he leads you straight to Dimhollow crypt and the quest follows as normal. You return Serana home and are given the typical reward offer.
Assuming you accept, youā€™re given the standard speech and told to get your ass going to redwater den. If you speak to him after (youā€™ll find him loitering about) heā€™ll offer to accompany you, off the record of course, if you require him. He will then be available as a follower from that point on
If youā€™re wondering why a Volkihar vampire is being so charming and so helpful for no good reason, heā€™s not being; the truth of it is that heā€™s an intense social climber. He sees that Harkon favors you for the return of his daughter and youā€™ve already shown off your combat prowess at dimhollow, now with the added bonus that youā€™ve been given the power of a Vampire Lord. He suspects that rubbing elbows with you in a positive capacity will prove beneficial to him rising up that clan ladder down the line. Though, to be fair, he doesnā€™t at all suspect that it all leads to Harkonā€™s death, and you & serana effectively becoming the most powerful ppl at court.
Ā Still, thatā€™s really all the better for him so long as he can prove useful enough to you to be given a higher position, or at least treated with more dignity.
Ronthil in this version is basically faking all of his niceties, and underneath it all is a calculating little bastard. He wants power and status, typical vampire desires, but wants them for the protection and strength they provide, not necessarily to squash people beneath him (though heā€™d be tempted were the mood to strike him. I mean, he IS a vampire.) His climb to the position heā€™s in now, lowly as it is and even with how heā€™s treated, is still something he fought tooth and nail for, so heā€™s not willing to risk himself being stupid unless he thinks thereā€™s something better in it for him to be that way.
aaaand i just ran out of creative juice, so thats the general idea iā€™d cooked up. if you read this far, congrats and also wow i sure hope you like vampires lol.
#no im not doing anything with this#this is strictly an idea#LMFAO#and also i do NOT have the technical knowledge necessary to make this all work#so if you are a modder reading this and laughing then just know this is a stupid dream brought to u by urs truly (<-- vampire enjoyer)#i probably come off as EXTREMELY mentally ill in this#whatever#also for the record if ur asking but whats why does he stick around when u basically betray harkon with serana to get the scrolls and etc#at that point he weighs his odds and decides that you're the better option.#he can either do this because youve proved yourself extremely capable till now#OR he can do this because of an emotional bond you two have formed#in my head ldb is given the option to get to the heart of his motives and such in dialogue trees at which point#even when his social climber persona is still in full effect around you#its different#he cares#but again thats dialogue tree specific stuff so not everyones gonna get that satisfaction#oh and if ur wondering where the asshole bit comes into this#well he is faking his friendship just to get close at first#but if thats not enough for u then he is also entirely into you being listener and any other immoral guilds you wanna join#his pursuit of power and status makes him go YEAAA BABE join whatever u want be the best there ever was youll be the best connection in my#social group !!!!!!!#but also on a personal moral level he's done all youre gonna do and worse before he kicks the bucket probably. so he doesnt care

love to say iā€™m a fan of horror films even though i end up disliking a lot of them
#they're at least more enjoyable when you're with people where you can make jokes#bc if i'm by myself watching it and i don't like it then i'm just like this is boring#but the big classic franchises - friday the 13th / halloween / nightmare on elm street#like all fine at first but watching ALL of them was just like 'why am i not getting this why are these considered classics'#i think i am just a little picky like with slashers where there's no motive i'm like what's the point that's why i like scream so much#even if some killers have flimsy motives at least there's a REASON it's more interesting to me that way#and then on the other hand some of the more contemporary stuff like did i enjoy myself watching hereditary and midsommar and whatnot#sure but do i have much interest in rewatching them? like not really#most recently i loved ready or not and halloween 2018 but i still haven't watched the two sequels i gotta get on that#honestly think i enjoyed that a little more than the old ones#though i still think being like 'and none of those sequels happened' was A Choice#though fine with me bc as i said i watched all those franchises and i was just like okay and?#oh and scream 5 i did like that well enough#honestly haven't watched a LOT of the recent ones though there have been ones i wanted to see#still need to see that new saw though again i just like. didn't care for them doing anything after saw 7 bc it ended so perfectly#never forget me and nancy getting that on dvd (maybe even rented it? we would've still done that back then i think)#and when we got to the dr gordon reveal we jumped up and high fived and it was the BEST

Hey I have a fic question! Any Trigun stuff in the works šŸ‘€
Hello!!~
oooohhh, good question :3
there's a lil drabble from the 'spring prompts' list (I know, I know, it's summer now šŸ˜­šŸ˜­ I'm so bad at completing things fast with so much going on irl lately and the writing braincell taking a loooong vacation~) but otherwise, I still have a few ideas here and there stashed away in some google docs, but nothing currently seeing the light of day~
this is a good little reminder to go check that though! see if there's anything there the inspiration is hitting on~ aaaaand a reminder to work on that drabble a bit more, get that out so if anyone wants it they can enjoy a lil T/rigun morsel!~
thanks for the ask lovely!!~ hopefully this answer isn't too disappointing šŸ’—šŸ’—

how to have motivation to workout ā™”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
you're reading this blog to stop procrastinating whenever you want to workout , or just get back on track in general. you are not alone as many others go through it too , but here I'll give you tips to avoid procrastination.
Tumblr media
our plan : :
001 , push through
- in my eyes , procrastination is not a curse that randomly shows up in your life or something that pops up and runs away , it is something you bring up on yourself. let me explain it this way : :
imagine you are Sabrina , you love hanging out with your friends and playing with them. You stretch and study and read books in the morning everyday. One day , your best friend wakes you up early to go somewhere , meaning you forget to do your productive routine that day. Soon , one day of missing out of your productive deeds turns into a destructive habit. Eventually , you miss out on your routine and feel a sudden dread whenever you want to. That is procrastination.
It's okay to play with friends or watch a movie but don't let that get caught up in your life ! your routine should be like a ritual that you practise everyday , no matter the circumstances ! starting to do something once a day can slowly lead up to a repetitive habit whether that is lounging or being productive ! procrastination is just a re - embodiment of your actions.
002 , plan it all out
- don't workout or stretch or practise pilates by waking up and doing it at any time of day , depending on your mood. creating a repetitive habit means you need to do it at the same time of day for a scheduled time period. make sure to plan rest days to prevent burnouts !
003 , rest
- make sure to rest at least once a week to prevent burning out. remember that your muscles need to rest !!
004 , romanticize it
- romanticize moving your body to make it enjoyable ! listen to music , wear comfortable clothes , cute accessories , add candles - anything to make working out fun !
005 , find great workout channels // excercises
- find great workouts that aren't too // not intense enough for you ! find ones that work and are not just popular on tiktok !
ā™” I extremely recommend hinafit for pilates , stretches and workouts !!
Tumblr media
thank you for reading !

ā†³ thinkin of u <3
ā†³ sae itoshi, shidou ryusei, nagi seishiro x fem!reader (separate) ā†³ nsfw(ish) ā†³ established relationships, nudes, descriptions of masturbation (fem), ā€œsending them nudes/spicy vids while theyā€™re in publicā€, slight sexting?, contains crack (sorry i canā€™t help myself), no explicit sex but lots of allusions to it, language, aged up characters, not proof read :x, my writing
ā†³ 1k words
ā†³ tbh iā€™ve thought about this trope for a long time and finally got the creativity and inspiration to write it! iā€™m not entirely sure of the quality of this as iā€™ve never written anything like this before, but i hope itā€™s still enjoyable! thank you so much for reading and i hope you enjoy!! <3

ā€œā€¦ now that youā€™ve played alongside japanā€™s u-20, would you ever reconsider your decision not to join? the people want to know.ā€
sae sent an icy glare to the reporter across from him; heā€™d thought heā€™d made his stance on this vividly clear, but obviously not.
ā€œno.ā€ sae said simply, reveling in the spark of indignation his refusal brought to the manā€™s eyes.
ā€œwell, why notā€”?ā€
sae lifted a hand to silence the man when his phone pinged twice ā€” maybe that was rude, but sae had the feeling that whatever had just come through his phone would be a thousand times more entertaining and engaging than the sleaze across from him.
and boy, was sae right.
my wife: seeing you on tv has me all worked up. maybe hurry it along? šŸ˜˜
my wife: [video attachment]
despite his current surroundings and the many cameras pointed at him, sae opened the attachment ā€” it was a video, one without sound, but the muteness didnā€™t take away from the sheer tempting nature of it.
you looked so good, back resting against the armrest of the couch and legs spread lazily and slit glistening in the flash of the camera. your fingers teased at your clit lightly, and desire shot through saeā€™s body as he itched to replace them with his own.
sae didnā€™t even get halfway through the video before his phone pinged with another message ā€” and then another.
my wife: SAE YOU ARENT SUPPOSED TO LOOK YET
my wife: YOURE ON LIVE TV PUT IT DOWN
sae smirked and gave the reporter a lazy wave before standing.
ā€œmy deepest apologies, but iā€™m cutting this short. i have some other business to attend to.ā€
sae couldnā€™t give two shits about the way both the reporter and his pr manager sputtered and desperately attempted to flag him back ā€” his woman was waiting on him at home, and that was far more important.
Tumblr media
shidou rarely ever felt bored during matches ā€” but so far, this one had simply been a drag. the opposing team didnā€™t really offer much of a challenge, and shidou had scored more points off of them than he could justly remember.
by the time half-time rolled around, shidou was seething and sweating, feeling incredibly tense and antsy as he whipped into the locker room.
his teammates knew not to bother him when he was in a dip like this, so they cleared a path for him and avoided eye contact at all costs. if shidou werenā€™t so frustrated he would have found it amusing.
there was only one thing that may make shidou feel the least bit better ā€” messages from you, something he was guaranteed to find at half-time. a trickle of excitement slithered down his body when he pulled his phone from his locker and plopped down on the nearest bench. his phone read ā€˜3 unread messagesā€™ when he clicked the screen on.
shidou didnā€™t think twice about tapping open the chat log between the two of you, a smile instantly gracing his lips at your first message.
babygirlšŸ’•: hope your match is going well baby!! i know youā€™re gonna rock it
babygirlšŸ’•: but on the slim to none chance that it may not be, i want to give you some motivation ;)
babygirlšŸ’•: [video attachment]
shidou probably should have ensured his sound was off before opening it ā€” but your legs were spread open so deliciously and your fingers were working your cunt at a desperate speed, what was shidou supposed to do? think rationally? tough chance.
lewd moans and whines of ā€œshidouuuuuā€ filled the locker room and ten pairs of shocked eyes met his. shidouā€™s cheeks warmed and anger sparked in his chest at the knowledge that now his teammates knew how absolutely angelic you sounded in the throes of pleasure.
all it took was a heavy glare and they were clearing out of the room to give him and your video some privacy.
Tumblr media
every single tiny box on the shelf looked exactly the same.
what was he even supposed to get again? heā€™d read over the front of every box at least three times. pearl, radiant, braidedā€¦ none of those words rung any bells in his head. what was it you had told him before he left?
ā€œmaybe it was the pearlā€¦?ā€ nagi murmured to himself, eyes narrowed as if that would somehow help the answer become more clearer to him. he gingerly grabbed a box and examined it before promptly putting it back on the shelf.
nagi didnā€™t like to admit defeat, but heā€™d been perusing this shelf for nearly thirty minutes and still didnā€™t know shit from shat ā€” heā€™d have to phone a friend, unfortunately.
nagi slipped his phone from his pocket and was just about to tap open his contacts when his phone pinged with a message; ironically, it was from you.
babycake <3: hurry home love. iā€™m waiting for you šŸ’•
babycake <3: [image attachment]
nagiā€™s eyes nearly bugged from his skull when he caught sight of the picture youā€™d sent him ā€” you, sprawled across the lush queen bed, donning nothing but his freshly washed jersey. if he looked close enough, he could see the faintest tease of your nipples perked up beneath the fabric, and the hem of it fell to your mid thighs, hiding the sweet spot between your legs.
nagi sucked in a breath and clicked off his phone screen, willing his half-hard dick to calm down ā€” at least while he was in the store. with furtive glances down each side of the isle nagi powered his screen on and, while avoiding letting his gaze fall to the tempting picture, typed a quick response.
me: omw. donā€™t move.
your period wasnā€™t due for another week, anyway. nagi always had time to figure out the pearl-versus-radiant-versus-braided debacle before then.
Tumblr media
i genuinely had so much fun cooking these up! thank you so much for reading! likes, comments and reblogs are not at all required but are much appreciated!! <33

heyy šŸ˜ so um like I was hoping you could do like a combination of hsr men and genshin men, the reader is their lover who sits on their lap just to pass the time (the men are up to u pls pls include wriothesley and neuvillette if u can šŸ˜³šŸ˜ tys šŸ’–)
ā˜… A/N: Yep, I don't at all mind doing combinations of both fandoms
ā˜† Genre/Trope: Romantic
ā˜… Format: Mini Scenarios (Characters Included (Separate): Wriothesley, Neuvillette, Zhongli, Jing Yuan and Blade)
ā˜† Warnings: None
ā˜… Extra: Wrio + Neuvi might be OOC // Short-ish // Reader is shorter then characters included // Reader is NOT the traveler
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The first time you do it, Wriothesley is surprised. Don't get him wrong he doesn't mind having you this close he just didn't expect it is all. He at first isn't too sure what to do in this situation, he still has work to do but you're there on his lap, is he meant to drop his work and give you attention and that was your way of telling him? Are you doing this just because and he can still work??
When he does finally get used to it, I see him continuing with his work, using one hand to write, sign and pick up/put down papers while the other hand is wrapped around your waist, his chin resting on your shoulder as he calmly scribbles down whatever's he's meant to.
If you're really desperate for attention though and aren't just sitting on his lap just because he might indulge and pepper your face with kisses, however this is only if he doesn't have too much important work to do, if he does he'll just chuckle and tell you to be a bit more patient.
Tumblr media
Neuvillette didn't understand the concept of it at all when you first did it. Sure he knew humans had different ways of showing their love or just different things they do with their partner in general but he didn't expect one of things you like doing is sitting on his lap.
He's often working so he likely marks this as a way for you to be closer to him even in silence, and in a way it motivates him to finish a bit quickly so he can give you the attention you deserve.
Overall, although he may not fully understand what you're doing just knows this seems to be something you enjoy doing with him, and if it makes you happy then he's happy. Just as long as you wait until he's finished work before giving you any attention you may want.
Tumblr media
Zhongli also is still learning more about humans but perhaps is more knowledgeable than Neuvillete is. He doesn't say anything when you do it for the first time however he will question you if you continue to do it, wanting to know why you seem to find enjoyment from merely situating yourself on his lap.
When you see you just like it because it passes the time or any other reason, he'll simply chuckle. If you were to ask if he's annoyed by it he'll shake his head no, he simply wanted to see why you enjoyed it so much, after that he'll invite you to sit on his lap a lot more, however more so in private.
Maybe if he's reading a book and sees you coming into the room, he'll gesture you to come towards him and pat his lap with a smile, if you enjoy it so much he'll indulge for as long as you like.
Tumblr media
Jing Yuan practically INVITES you to sit on his lap once you did it the first time. Once he knows you like spending your time on it then anytime you're around and he's sitting, he'll tug you over just to take a seat.
He loves having you close to him, his work can wait and he can handle Fu Xuans scolding for the nth time that day, you're way more important to him then any work he has due...however he does eventually need to get it done, but he'll happily do it with you still on his lap if you don't want to get off.
HOWEVER, this will come at a price. Yes, he himself also enjoys having you in his lap BUT he'll also like using YOUR lap as a pillow. So if you want to continue using his lap as a seat, be prepared to have your lap being used as a pillow.
Tumblr media
I feel like Blade full on pushes you off the first time you do it. Don't get him wrong, he does feel bad for probably hurting you but he's not much of a touchy guy. Especially if you two were still fresh into the relationship.
He'd much prefer you ask beforehand. Most of the time he'll say no as I see him as someone who needs something to do the majority of the day and he cannot allow himself to relax.
However once he gets more comfortable into the relationship then he might finally agree to let yourself rest on his lap. It might be awkward for the both of you as Blade isn't making any attempts to hold you, his hands at his side but the more comfortable he gets the more relaxed he lets himself become and soon enough Kafka or Silverwolf may find him holding you close.
Tumblr media
Hopefully this isn't too messy!! This has been sitting in my drafts as I struggle to find the time to continue writing it sorgipget.
The next post should be a Christmas Special of sorts :> (Hopefully)

smut alphabet
pairing: logan howlett x f!reader
warnings: well smut; mdni 18+
a/n: ahh so i've never done these before so i don't know if i did this right but i hope it's still enjoyablešŸ«¶šŸ» (for anon<3)
Tumblr media
A = Aftercare (what theyā€™re like after sex)
logan is surprisingly tender after sex. he has a rough exterior, but when it comes to aftercare, heā€™s all about making sure youā€™re comfortable. heā€™ll hold you close, tracing lazy circles on your skin, whisper soft words, and keep you warm with his body heat.
B = Body part (their favorite body part of their partnerā€™s)
logan loves your neck and shoulders. there's something about the vulnerability of that area that drives him wild, plus he enjoys leaving little marks there, staking his claim. he also has a thing for your hands, especially when theyā€™re gripping onto him.
C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically)
logan doesnā€™t hold back, and when heā€™s close, itā€™s intense. heā€™s not picky about where, but he does love finishing inside you, but heā€™s also turned on by seeing it on your skinā€”your belly, chest, or even your thighs. itā€™s all about the mark of intimacy for him.
D = Dirty secret (pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)
logan has a secret thing for public sexā€”the thrill of potentially getting caught excites him. Whether itā€™s an alley or a quiet spot in the woods, the added risk only intensifies his desire.
E = Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what theyā€™re doing?)
logan has lived a long life, so heā€™s incredibly experienced. he knows his way around the bedroom and can be both a gentle lover and an intense one, depending on what you need.
F = Favorite position (this goes without saying)

logan doesnā€™t masturbate often, given his high sex drive and preference for being with you, but when he does, itā€™s usually because heā€™s away from you. itā€™s quick, efficient, and filled with thoughts of what he wants to do with you next.
K = Kink (one or more of their kinks)
logan has a bit of a primal kink. he enjoys rougher play, like light biting, scratching, and being dominant. he enjoys being in control and might have a slight possessive kinkā€”wanting to mark you as his in some way, whether with love bites or something more. heā€™s also into scent and will often bury his face in your neck or hair to breathe in your natural smell, finding it incredibly arousing.

O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)

X = X-ray (letā€™s see whatā€™s going on under those clothes)
loganā€™s body is a masterpiece of rugged masculinity. his muscular build is covered in scars. heā€™s thick in all the right places, with a size thatā€™s more than satisfying.
Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?)

Z = Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)
logan doesnā€™t fall asleep right away. after sex, heā€™s usually still alert, keeping watch over you until heā€™s sure youā€™re comfortable and safe. only then does he allow himself to relax and drift off, often with his arms still protectively around you.

HOW TO START IMPLEMENTING CHANGE + STAY MOTIVATED
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
HAVE A REASON. It is going to be hard to start inputting change in your life if you do not even have a reason why. That reason also has to come from within, not from any other externalities (friends, school, work, family). This reason has to make you strive to be better.
If youā€™re unsure about your reason, write down times when you feel your happiest and when you feel your lowest, then notice any common themes.Ā 
BUILD DISCIPLINE. Discipline is the ability to be productive without hesitation or distractions. The only way to build it, is to practice it. Do the things you need/want to do, regardless of how you feel in the present.
Just remember, that you always feel better after committing to yourself.
MAKE YOUR PLAN SUSTAINABLE. Your routines and habits you want to implement, need to be at armā€™s length for you. While I do believe in challenging yourself if your mind perceives that specific activity as ā€˜too hardā€™, it is going to make you avoid that task.
This is a reaction from your ego coming out of your comfort zone because it is so unfamiliar it wants to protect if anything ā€˜badā€™ happens e.g. failure, loss of control and criticism.Ā 
Reminder, that part of you is not bad at all nor is it holding you back. It is the part of you that wants to keep you safe. For your ego to allow you to do tasks out of your comfort zone, it needs to be simple and easy. Then from there, you can build it up to your ideal habit or routine.Ā 
MAKE YOUR ENVIRONMENT INTENTIONAL. Your mind, space and the people around you need to be decluttered and serve a purpose. For your mind, avoid feeding it with an overload of information especially if you are not going to apply it. Minimise social media use and journaling instead of looking for a quick fix.Ā 
Your space, specifically your bedroom has to be the best place for you to grow. Everything in your room needs to serve a purpose, it has to be kept clean to ensure mind clarity and place intentional items around to support your goals (mantras, workout mat, water bottle, instruments).Ā 
The people around you have to support you and your journey. I donā€™t believe in the ā€˜valueā€™ or ā€˜worthā€™ people have, but rather what you think of them. Someone could be the most overachieving and productive person ever, so they may inspire you, but what if they donā€™t wish the best for you? People who will support you regardless are the best resource ever.
BE FLEXIBLE. The ability to edit your habits or routine when needed so you can stick to a schedule or adapt to change is a powerful but underrated skill. Anything in life can happen, but if we want to stick to our goals, we need to develop flexibility.Ā 
The best way to develop flexibility is to try everything. For example, meditation. Do 5, 10, 15, and 20 minutes, try it in the morning, afternoon or evening, do a guided one or do it by yourself. To get flexible in a habit, you need to expand your capabilities in that habit.Ā 
ALWAYS SOMETHING RATHER THAN NOTHING. Typically during the day, we procrastinate because we want the challenging task to be perfect or we believe thereā€™s not enough time/resources to do it.Ā 
However, just having that small progress each day is always better than nothing. One sentence is better than none, one healthy meal is better than none, 2 minutes of exercise is better than none etc.Ā 
HAVE GOALS THAT YOU LIKE. The reason so many people dislike doing their habits or routines is because itā€™s not stuff thatā€™s enjoyable for them. Itā€™s habits and routines that they got online from someone completely different.Ā 
Choose your favourite way of exercising, read your favourite books(even graphic ones!) and journal the way you want. If the steps to becoming your best self are steps that you dislike, then it is not your best self.Ā 
IDENTIFY THE WAY YOU SELF-SABOTAGE. If you are struggling to implement change, chances are there are small self-destructive behaviours that are in your routines that hold you back.Ā 
This could be major procrastination, doom-scrolling, an addiction or binge eating. You either have to completely extract these habits from your life or you can do these things in moderation.Ā 
TAKE REGULAR BREAKS. If you are being productive back-to-back and not allowing yourself to cool down, your motivation will deplete quickly. Have around 1-2 hours in your day doing anything you like.
If needed, after each task, take 5-10 minutes for yourself. However, do avoid your phone for these periods and try to be present in whatever you do here.Ā 
HAVE SOFT DAYS. Days in which you do not have to do anything hardcore or intense, and youā€™re just living. While yes, be somewhat productive but nothing too intense.
This can be your reset, detox or self care days, or all of them combined!

May I please req gentle Heian era sukuna as our husband? šŸ™
a/n: omg is this me working on requests?? i'll try to work down the list over the next few days (i hope). i am terribly sick so i have time and hopefully also the motivation sob. ANYWAYS THANK YOU FOR YOUR REQUEST<33 i wasn't too sure if you wanted both sfw and nsfw or only sfw...SO I DID BOTH...but seperated them so dw! i also didn't notice that you didn't specifically ask for headcanons..but i hope that's okay too! i hope you're having a lovely day anon! SFW - I think he would act like such a tsundere. Acting like nothing affects him when truly his heart is jumping out of his chest, because of his wife. - He probably wouldn't be a man of many words, and more of small gestures that he thinks you don't notice. Like getting you a kimono in your favorite color, or in a design you talked about ages ago, or planting your favorite flowers in the garden. - Obviously he'd pretend that it was all a coincidence, and he didn't do it on purpose, or remembered the specific things you said. - Fight me over this, but I believe he would get so clingy when he's sleepy high. His 4 arms all wrapped around you while he babbles incoherent stuff. His arms would pull you even tighter if you tried to move away. - Sukuna would always make sure that you're pretty and all dolled up for him, whenever you're walking through the halls of his estate. And even if the two of you were only in his (and also yours) chambers, he'd find great enjoyment in seeing your hair and makeup all done. - As much as he loved to make teasing remarks about you, when you showed genuine insecurities or felt bad, he would certainly try his best to cheer you up or make you feel better about whatever you're insecure about - in his, well, own way. NSFW!!!! - Bathtub sex is a MUST. Two hands on your hips and two on your chest, gently sliding you up and down his dicks. There was this stupid grin on his face the whole time. - Sukuna certainly knows how to get you riled up, if it's only gentle breast groping, or one of his hands sliding up and down your ass, maybe even slipping under your panties and letting the fabric rub against your cunt. - I just know this man loves to wake you up with one of his dicks fully shoved in your cunt. Cooing at you and shushing you while his hand covered your mouth. He wasn't rough or animalistic as usual, slow and sensual thrusts woke you up. - You've lost track of how many times he's fucked you on his throne while calling you his queen, soft kisses along your neck. - He obviously loved fucking your throat like it was just a toy, but sometimes just leaning back and letting you do your job, felt better than anything else in the world. Praises are falling from his lips about how good you're doing and how good it feels. His sharp nails were massaging your scalp.

My Latest "Getting housework done" ADHD hack
This isn't anything revolutionary, it's basically just a modified pomodoro technique, but I've never tried it for housework before. I really struggle to motivate myself to do housework tasks - they just feel so unending and tedious and abstracted from immediate gains.
I find I'll often put off jobs until my house is a complete mess, then "waste" my weekend stressing out feeling I need to "catch up" on cleaning, struggling to get started because it's so daunting (executive dysfunction) and then being overwhelmed by pushing myself to clean inefficiently for hours and hours at a time.
My new method:
Begin with a leisure activity I enjoy - play a computer game! Do a craft project! This takes the stress of starting out of the equation.
Set a timer for half an hour. Decide on a single, concrete task which I will go and complete when the time is up. It might be putting on some washing or emptying the dishwasher.
When the timer goes off, do the task. Suddenly it seems less daunting, because it's only one thing, and I'm going to get to go back to the fun activity immediate afterwards. Often I find once I'm up and about, I feel like doing a few more chores - but I don't have to.
Go back to the leisure activity, set the timer again.
And crucially, this isn't a "only do at the weekend when the house is a complete mess" thing, it's a "do every day in little bursts" thing.
And I am FORBIDDEN from feeling guilty about returning to the enjoyable task. That's not allowed!
