sirius: did you hear the rumour about me? that i’m gay?
remus: i did, yes.
sirius: and?
remus: what?
sirius: do you think it’s true? do you think that i’m gay?
remus *sighs*: are you attracted to other men?
sirius *scoffs*: …no
remus:
sirius: but… let me give you a scenario. i’m at like a beach cabana and david bowie approaches, tries to lean in and kiss me… i would definitely resist like at first, but if he was persistent… i might give in a little bit just to see what it felt like. would i push away? how hard? like what if he’s like really aggressive?
remus *eyebrows raised*: if you resisted david bowie a little bit he would still… need to get to you?
sirius *slightly flustered*: this is not real david bowie, this is like… in my fantasy, or it’s like not fantasy- it’s like what i’m- it’s just a scenario-
remus *tired*: wow- i wish i could help you- i don’t- you might be gay?
sirius:
remus: you might be gay.

I’m gonna start posting images of like what I mean for my body headcanons for BG3 characters so like
Halsin: Built like John Goodman from when he played Fred Flinstone or Dan Connor, tall, big, imposing but still very gentle giant and Dan Connor is kinda what I mean when I mean fatjacked, John Goodman is what I think of when I think “built like an actual bear” so like just John Goodman in general for Halsin since his weight and shape fluctuates and I think Halsin’s does too depending on the season
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Astarion: David Bowie, Thin White Duke describes Astarion to a T so like yeah. Obvious as hell if I do say so myself
Tumblr media
Karlach: Already said she’s built like Jackie from Love Lies Bleeding or for another comparison Rhea Ripley. Just like 15% to 20% bigger
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Shadowheart: The closest thing I could find that describes how I think she’s built is Marylin Monroe in these pictures but like 15% to 20% more body fat if that makes sense ?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Gale: I’m a firm fat Gale believer and people don’t like that but I don’t really care so but I’ve already headcanoned Gale as being built like John Candy, Chris Farley and most recently Matt Berry and I can’t find pictures of any of them shirtless besides Chris Farley and any photos I find of him in the Chippendales skit is very low quality so here’s the best one. And I know certain people don’t find fat bodies attractive but I’m not one of them so while this skit was meant to be a joke targeting fat people, his body is just as hot to me as everyone else on this list.
Tumblr media
Wyll: Anthony Mackie. He has the muscles, the waist and the cake. Nothing more to be said. Exactly what I think of when I think of Wyll. Just maybe 5% smaller
Tumblr media Tumblr media
To be continued because I have to find a picture for Lae’Zel because I can’t find any examples of bottom heavy yet flat chested celebrities to use as an example like it’s actually aggravating and annoying because I know they exist. Like Shadowheart was a struggle too because I don’t even headcanon Marylin as her body type, it’s just the closest example I could find. Gale was also a struggle but I just settled on it.

Your post about balls and their inherent attractiveness made me wonder who you are attracted to? If you don’t mind me asking of course! I don’t mean to pry.
I’m just curious because you’re such a multifaceted person and gender and sexuality are so multifaceted. You mentioned that like, you don’t think you’re this icon of gender that everyone thinks you are but I don’t think you’re as far off as you think you are. You’ve never (at least that I have seen) claimed to have it all figured out. You sort of just walk into the room and go, “This is what I’m doing right now! Is it what I’ll be doing tomorrow? I don’t know!” It’s very David Bowie. So I thought maybe in terms of your sexuality you’ll likely be in a similar state of, “I know what I don’t like, but I’m still discovering what I do like because every day is a new adventure!”
hmm!! hmm... i think it's tough to pinpoint, because i've not had a lot of crushes in my time with people i know on a personal level - and, i haven't really been in a lot of relationships, and when i have it's usually been people pursuing me and me just, giving up the fight (sighs) - but when i do have a crush it's usually an emotional bond that makes them so attractive to me. it's not that they're not physically attractive too, of course they are, but it's kind of the emotional side that makes every little bit of them homina homina, you know. not to be gay about it.
i think even celebrity crushes i have are more about their inexplicable vibes more than their physical features. vibes have to be immaculate. i need to think "yeah. i wanna hang out with them. i think they could make me laugh."
though of course there's people out there who are objectively gorgeous, and i'm not immune to that. i know when someone's gorgeous. i - well, i don't know. i'm just (waves hands around) bisexual. i'm very bisexual. i find a lot of people attractive. from all parts of the gender and aesthetic spectrum. i don't think i could point at one thing and say "oh so that's what does it for me" - i think maybe just... enthusiasm and good vibes. friendly and approachable. not intimidating. kissable (whatever that means).
i'm easily scared away by people who seem intense. because i'm very skittish. so... people that are approachable and make me feel comfortable and safe, yeah. god. feeling safe with someone. yeah. that gets me hot under the collar. when i'm with someone i can feel free and comfortable with, and they kind of get it - and they know how to not scare me away, that's great. i've had a lot of interest in me from a lot of people that just kind of didn't get me, or think i'm something else, and all i want to do is get out of that situation. i can't do it, i can't do it. it - it kind of makes relationships difficult for me. because it's almost a given that if someone is thinking of me in a sexual context they're misinterpreting me. it - it kind of stinks. like, i should be responsive, maybe, but it never feels comfortable, for me. i wish it felt right. it very rarely does. so - so i've turned down so, so many people. and i beat myself up about being "scared" or whatever, but - i don't think it's true. if it feels right it feels right. if it doesn't feel right - you can't - you can't force yourself to think that it is. and every time i've bitten the bullet, it - it doesn't work. because it wasn't right. sometimes i think there's something wrong with me. but - i... i don't know. i've had this realisation that nearly all of the intimate relationships i've ever had, i've been a bit of a cornered animal. and i hate that realisation. it kind of stinks to realise that. kicks the dirt. god, i need more positive experiences.
i definitely feel more comfortable with afab people - i've - well, i've never had a positive encounter with anyone amab. not a one. i know that i shouldn't hold it against them, but it does something about my degree of comfort, yep. and i just think afab parts are prettier. (i'm right. they are.)
but i think, you know, while everybody has their clothes on, i don't really have preferences when it comes to femme vs masc, really. like when it comes to actors and things it's a 50/50 split on what actors or actresses i find attractive. in my day-to-day i'm probably more attracted to femme-presenting people, but that's generally because they put a little bit more effort into it, and their clothes and make-up are so, so pretty. i love when people display their emotions or their energy through their wardrobe. when people express themselves with all their colours or whatever. when you get a sense of who they are, and what they're about, just by looking at them. people who light up a room. i love those people. you generally find that more with femme-presenting people, and i love those girls. stay loud and proud, my girlies...
in my mind, in my subconscious, whenever i have dreams (that aren't a sordid threeway - i have a lot of those - usually with one gorgeous girl and a large, ominous faceless man) - dreams about who i'm going to wind up with, they're almost always femme-presenting. usually my age. sometimes older. shrugs. don't know what it means. just that's where my brain is at. i don't think it has to be true, but - guess it's where my brain is at.
my dad still insists that i'll end up with a man. i almost want to not, just to spite him. whenever i mention i'm attracted to a male actor he says "oh. so you are straight." he thinks i'm just confused. he says to me, "you're confused and that's okay." so i think that might be just about the full extent of acceptance i'll get from him. shrugs. i'm confused, i guess. i don't know. i think this particular thing i don't think i should or will have an answer. i don't think i'm confused. i don't feel like i need to sort it out. my options are open. i'm not scared about whatever will come. whatever is meant to happen will happen. that's - just, i guess, that's how i see it. whatever is meant to happen will happen. and it's not a problem that it hasn't happened yet. because i guess it wasn't meant to.
i think my gender stuff was always a priority - it always came first. i had my gender awakening LOOOONG before my sexual awakening (my sexual awakening like. only happened like. two years ago. honest to god.) i remember it being a bit of a problem - when i was forging my gender path back in high school, and a lot of people thought it meant something. meant that i was a cute boy who was up for dating girls. when actually i was the kind of boy who was not into girls yet. i was too busy being into comic books. i think even now, sex just - isn't my priority. it's just - it's more important for me to find people that see me for me. see me for what i am, and the sex can come later.
it's just - it's stupid, really. i find a million of you guys online who kind of get it. you're freaky weird gender like me but - in real life - i have no idea how to explain myself. i have no idea how to market myself. i can't use dating websites because i think people on both sides are going to be disappointed. and absolutely everyone who's romantically interested in me in person doesn't know how to approach me as what i am. they approach me wrong, and it scares me away on impact because - because whatever they think i am, i'm not. i'm not a butch lesbian, i'm not a transguy, i'm not a girl, i'm not a boy, i'm not... i don't know, i'm not easily marketable. i can't find my demographic. i've only found my demographic here, in my weird little spider-man corner of the internet. with likeminded freaky gendered spider-man nerds, i guess. i think maybe my dating life would be easier if i could just be one thing. but... (waves hands around) i can't do it. i can't force myself into a box for the sake of being more easily marketable. i just can't do it.

On Astarion’s sexuality, again…
I’m sorry, I’m going to go on a bit of a long rant here but it seems like it still needs to be said since there are still comments roaming around claiming that “Astarion is 100% gay”, that “he’d be be gay if they did not make him ‘playersexual’ to appease the ‘cishet women who fetishize’ gay men”, that “it’s disgusting to see him with a female Tav”, that “people who romance him with female characters are [insert any kind of insult here]”.
No Astarion is not gay, he’s PANSEXUAL. HC whatever you want in you own game, HC that he’s fully gay if that’s the only way for you to enjoy the character, but stop claiming your HC as absolute canon and trying to control how other people play and interact with the character, especially if you’re going to be nasty about it, and even more so when people who worked on the game and the game itself show that your HC is not actual canon. The same applies for anyone who would claim he’s fully straight btw (haven’t see these takes myself, but that doesn’t mean they don’t exist somewhere)
The romanceable companions are not playersexual. 
They are all canonically pansexual, it was confirmed by people who worked on the game and it’s visible in game as they all have lines or behavior that indicates attraction to more than one gender / regardless of gender. And in Astarion’s case, it was also confirmed by both his writer who calls him “a man of all the appetites” or “medieval Deadpool”, and his actor, who has been on record more than once confirming it, he also romances him with a female character in his own playthrough.
A few examples of the top of my head : 
Astarion : comments on Wyll’s horns being flattering on him, comments on the bloodlust look being very flattering on Lae’zel or calls her “spicy food” in a very suggestive way, calls Shadowheart “vintage port on two legs” or says she’s “enticing”. Has flirty banters with Gale, Shadowheart and Lae’zel. Will sleep with Lae’zel at the Tieffling/Goblin party if none of them is romanced
Gale : has a known ex-girlfriend, offers his blood to Astarion in a party banter and comments on Raphael, and is the most open to stay with a Tav who turned Illithid.
Halsin : talks about former lovers, both a maiden and a male sailor, and is clearly down for anything who can consent.
Karlach (i’ll focus a bit more on the male side here since she’s also often called just lesbian) : has an erotic fantasy where she’s with a man and a woman at the same time, has an erotic fantasy with Dammon, says she’d ride Astarion to the Feywild and back, several comments about Wyll being attractive with his horns, shows interest in Halsin too.
Lae’zel : Will sleep with Astarion at the Tieffling/Goblin party if they're not romanced, will try to bed Wyll or Gale if Astarion is unavailable, and will apparently go for Shadowheart if none of the guys are available. Makes some comments about Karlach and has flirty banters with Minthara.
Minthara : refers to a former female lover, flirts with the ladies and says she’d catch Astarion in her web if she was still living in the Underdark.
Shadowheart : makes thirsty comments about both Karlach and Halsin. And has flirty banters with pretty much all the companions.
Wyll : makes comments about both Astarion and Halsin being attractive, flirts with Lae’zel and Shadowheart.
Now on to the arguments usually said to prove he’s gay or has a heavy preference for men : 
He’s too feminine / flamboyant to be attracted to women : 
A man can be feminine and flamboyant and not be gay. Ever heard of Prince or David Bowie ? They were both pretty androgynous and flamboyant and one was straight, the other was bi. And not every gay man is effeminate or flamboyant. 
Can we stop with these outdated stereotypes ? 
All this really makes me wish we could see more feminine and flamboyant straight or bi/pan men and more super masculine gay men in series, movies or games, same goes for women, give me a masculine straight, bi/pan woman and super feminine lesbian every once in a while.
Just let people carry and express themselves in a way that makes them feel comfortable without assuming they have to be a certain sexuality.
Besides, the very theatrical / flamboyant side of him his mostly a mask he puts on, it tones down quite a lot whenever he's genuine with Tav.
He talks about "handsome virgin" and "prince-type". 
Well in the context of the game these are very much gender neutral.
Handsome can be used for both men and women, and it is used in game for both, like Minthara calling herself handsome or Karlach calling a female Tav "handsome and talented" for instance.
As for the "prince-type" comment, nobility titles in game usually default to their masculine form, even for female characters like Duke (not Duchess) Stellmane who is a woman, Duke Wyll who can name a female Tav Duke (still not Duchess) or Gortash telling a female Durge that the two of them will rule as Kings (not King and Queen). In that instance Astarion is also talking about what we consider irl as the archetype of a fairy tale prince, just like when he calls Volo a "Damsel".
Not to mention in both cases, considering the tone he uses, the context of these lines and in the case of the "prince-type" comment, the other things he says in the very same conversation he's likely just being sarcastic (if not salty in the “prince-type” one) anyways.
He also uses words usually more associated with women like “pretty” or “dowry” regardless of the character’s gender.
He has slept with more men than women for the past 200 years… 
We don't really know that since we know of, what, 5 of them (which would be 0.05% of the estimated number of people he’s slept with), but to be quite honest considering he was hunting in the middle of the night in taverns, brothels and in the streets, yeah i’d expect most of them to be men, he probably had a bigger pool to choose from with men in these kind of places, regardless of any kind of preference on his part and men may have been more likely to follow a stranger just to have sex.
But, in any case, he’s very clear he wasn’t doing any of it by choice and he didn’t enjoy it.
He compares himself to a prostitute and especially as Origin Astarion he can have an interesting chat with Nym and Sorn Orlith at Sharess’ Carress where he tells them “I was once in your position, in a way” and when Sorn asks him how it was, all of Astarion’s answers are negative 1/”I try not to think about it any longer”, 2/”Just what I had to do to get by.”, 3/”I was forced into it, but it sounds as if you weren’t” and last but not least 4/”Horrible. Unfathomably so.”. He can also tell Haarlep “I already lived an eternity devoted to pleasure and it was rather dull.”
He also says himself about these relationships and his conquests things like :
“The entire reason for my existence was to seduce anything with a pulse.”
“I spent two hundred years using my body to lure pretty things back for my Master. What I wanted, how I felt about what I was doing, it never mattered.”, 
“I've gotten on my back ten thousand times or more, and forgotten half of them.”, 
“Enjoyment ? That didn't come into it. I never had a choice. I have bedded thousands of people. Half of them I barely remember. Most of them didn't even grant me temporary bliss.”, 
“Being close to someone, any kind of intimacy was something I performed to lure people back, for him”
“They’re my conquests. I pursued them, seduced them, then brought them back to Cazador.” 
 “They weren't lovers... not in the way that you mean. They wanted me more than I wanted them.”
… and he only talks about the men in his past :
Hm, he talks about exactly 2. The darling boy and Sebastian.
We don’t know much about the darling boy other than he was apparently pretty young and too nice and innocent for Astarion to force himself to bring him back to Cazador (we don’t even know if he actually slept with this one, only that he let him go, which led to Astarion’s worst punishment), whether that was because he somehow had feelings for someone he just met or felt too bad about ruining his life (especially if he was one of the very first, if not the very first person he ever had to bring back to Cazador), is up to interpretation. 
As for Sebastian, people really like to call him Astarion’s ex-lover/boyfriend, and claim he had some deep feelings for him, but he was not a lover, only a victim. Astarion remembers him because he was one of the first and one of the few who didn’t abuse him and he feels guilty for ruining this nice man’s life, but even so, when meeting him as Origin Astarion, he needs to succeed a DC 18 check to even remember his name or pass a DC 10 check to dig it from Sebastian’s head, all the other options are some variation of “I can’t remember”. And then, the only dialogue option implying he was even attracted to Sebastian is a DC 20 [DECEPTION] check.
So, if these relationships are supposed to show a huge preference for men, what he himself says would do  a pretty good job at showing the opposite to be quite honest…
He’s bad at flirting with women despite being a super skilled seducer :
He’s not really a skilled seducer actually, he’s also bad at flirting with men. Gale will outright reject him, and Tav, regardless of their gender can also call him out on his cheesy pick-up lines. He never really needed to be good at it actually considering he was picking up his victims in taverns and brothels and they were more than likely drunk and/or very horny, so he only really needed his good looks. His 10 Charisma doesn’t come out of nowhere.
There’s a party banter where he’ll reject Lae’zel:
This one only triggers if you are romancing him, he’ll also reject Gale’s offer for his blood, which can be taken as Gale flirting with Astarion (both because his blood is nasty, but also because he’s in a relationship with Tav), he’ll also decline Halsin’s offer for a threesome. It appears Astarion just doesn’t want to be involved with anyone else if he’s with Tav. Lae'zel will also reject him if she's romanced btw.
If neither Astarion, nor Lae’zel is romanced though, they’ll actually hook up, which proves that unlike what some claim, he can in fact tell her no when he’s not interested, and he’ll do the same with Tav if he doesn’t like them enough. Considering he also admits to a romanced Tav that he was attracted to them and that he has quite a number of flirty banters with Lae’zel, yes he sleeps with her for protection, but like it’s the case for Tav, there still seems to be some level of attraction here.
Now let’s see what happens during the events of the game. 
He expresses in various dialogues that he finds both the male and female companions attractive, it’s possible he talks slightly more about the men, but his actions seem to lean slightly more towards the ladies actually.
He consistently flirts with Shadoheart and Lae’zel the most out of all the companions through all 3 acts, but he also invites Karlach on a date or Jaheira to a threesome (in that last case, he’s probably being sarcastic as well though).
He can sleep with Lae’zel at the Tieffling/Goblin party if the player doesn’t sleep with any of them. She’s the only character outside of the player’s he will actually sleep with during the events of the game. 
He can also invite Alfira to his tent, and if not romanced he’ll flirt with the girl in the sewers in Baldur's Gate.
If he catches the player cheating on him with Mizora, UA will admit that he would’ve been interested in sleeping with her too before, and AA will admit that he’d be interested if she offered, complain that he wasn’t invited to join and ask to be invited if there’s a next time
So he is clearly written and acted as pansexual, he shows attraction towards both men and women and it’s not even clear whether or not he actually has any preference. 
In the end he falls for Tav/Durge no matter what’s in their pants because they’re the first person in 200 years who shows him genuine care and kindness, who isn’t with him only for his body but likes him for who he is and with whom he can form a real loving relationship.

It’s my fault for letting the ask sit so long but now I’m back in Jace + the Jaces hell. Anyway that picture some guy posted on Reddit of like. “My dad and David Bowie on a motorbike in Greece, 1988” and the replies are like. Your dad fucked David Bowie. But it’s J3. That’s all
god. yeah. when j3 is kind of known post-band for having a rotating cast of attractive people around him who he fucks. ellie is so normal about it. its fine. j3 can fuck whoever he wants. its not like it matters. its just physicality. it means nothing when he's too busy to bother to visit her in her cabin up in the mountains while she's recording her first solo album but he has all the time in the world to fly these anonymous twinks out to whatever island he's on this month for a weekend. it's not like they ever defined what they are. theyre not beholden to each other. who's monogamous anymore? it's not like any of them are porter. its not like any of them are bluejay.
anyways. it ALSO means nothing if she calls up bluejay in a fit to ask if he's seen j3. and gets snappy with him when he says that he hasnt. and yells at him a little bit because she knows he's lying, he's lied to her face before. bluejay puts her on the phone with his stupid husband after that and she hangs up on the guy and smashes one of her guitars.

this took too much unnecessary courage to send haha </3
What song are you fixated on at the moment? What lyric or verse, and why?
- A loving feeling by Mitski ( Holding hands under a table Meeting up in your bedroom Making love to other people Telling each other it's all good )
What is your Enneagram type?
- INTP 5w4 !
Do you love gargantuan Youtube video essays, and if so, which is your favorite and why?
- I do<3 i just like space things in general, I find it neat!!
Tell me about your childhood imaginary friend.
- didn't have one, I spent most of my childhood people watching and watching stuff on the TV
What is your go-to way to fall asleep?
- hugging a spare pillow next to my dog :) (i love my dog)
If you had to change your name, what would it be, and why? (In tandem, if you have changed your name, why did you pick that one?)
- I changed my name because it felt nice when people ( my friends ) referred to me as it and made me feel more comfortable with who i am in general !!
What is your favorite of Redacted’s audios, and why?
- I love all of them but if I had to pick I think I'd have to go with Huxley and Damien's valenweek 2024 audio. I could feel my stomach turning throughout and falling into the vulnerability, seeing the misunderstanding playing out. When there is so much love, so much love for one another, one's insecurities can rear its ugly head so loudly</3
What Redacted boy holds no appeal to you, and why? Like, not the one you hate but the one who you don't get the hype for. (I won't judge, I promise.)
- im so sorry but i just dont get the hype wit vega n blake.
Tell me about that one book/movie/tv show you know all the words to.
-.. im not into any of those 😭 I get overwhelmed when I use my eyes too much so I just stick with Audiobooks, podcasts, etc (OUUUU I LOVE THE MAGNUS ARCHIVES SO MU)
Which Redacted boy are you platonically attracted to? Like- forget dating, which dude do you want to be your best friend?
- Caelum. I wanna give him the biggest hug I could ever muster. I wanna draw pictures with Caelum. I wanna make friendship bracelets with Caelum. I WANT CAELUM AS MY BFF 😓
Do you have a go-to thing you ramble about when you’re tired, and if so, what is it? (For example, my boyfriend knows I’m ready to sleep when I start talking about space.)
- I don't talk when I'm tired, I just go completely nonverbal and just lay in my bed with no lights on until i doze off !!
Tell me about your favorite playlist at the moment.
- it's just a mix of my favorite artists and music that make my brain feel fuzzy:3 (mitski, cas, matt maltese, david bowie, TV girl, msi, the rare occasions, etc)
What’s your guilty pleasure media, and why?
- horror movies (found films). Specifically 'As Above, So Below'. The movie is SO good but it'll keep me awake all night</3
Tumblr media
So there’s quite a few reasons I like this match, but two of the most compelling to me are your Enneagram and INTP. The Logician/Philosopher combo makes you a good fit for Avior.
These personality types give me the impression of someone introverted with a curious and unique nature who thinks more than they necessarily say; this would intrigue Avior. I think once he gets to know you, he’d really love to hear all your thoughts and talk with you, and find out what’s going on up in your head. Yet, your chipper nature is a pleasant contrast to his more sardonic, sarcastic temperament. You’d lighten him up and make him smile.
Even in your weird, little Aligherian prison, I think y’all would get along and have fun in your own ways. You’re a big fan of space; who better to tell you about it than a member of a magical species all named after stars? He could show you another section of the cosmos every night. When out of hell, you could have the opportunity to show him things instead. I’m personally delighted by the idea of Avior enjoying The Magnus Archives, so I will not let this headcanon go for anything. (I think he enjoys the metatextual nature of the Fears and hilariously relates to Jon and Martin in Season 5 iykyk)
Song:
There's nothing you or I can do so let the stars fall/ 'Cause from up here the sky's my thoughts and we're all so small/ We're all so/ My heart and the earth share the same rule/ It starts with love and it ends with you/ But don't go outside, it's dangerous tonight/ Without me right here by your side
I can’t quite pin down Avior’s music taste, I’ll admit, but you strike me as a possible Cavetown fan, so I hope you like this pick. I just couldn’t resist a sweet, cute love song titled Meteor Shower for you two, you know? It gives hopeful vibes, like the two of you knowing you’ll make it out and dreaming of that coffeeshop.
Runner-ups:
David is a runner-up for you, because your personality Types lowkey give Introverted Angel, you feel? David would like that, buuuut I want someone nicer and Space-aligned for you, so not him. Ivan is my favorite runner-up for you because you would be his type and because the two of you being horror buffs together is a very fun, silly idea to me.
note: I hope you enjoy your match-up 💜
Read this post and send me an ask if you’d like a match-up of your own! 💌

Wip asks
Not a stranger things watcher but this one caught my eye as I watched Labyrinth the other day and I’m curious if it’s connected to the song in that
What kind of magic spell to use?
💕
Ahh this fic! This fics title was specifically inspired by Labyrinth because in this story Steve is fully aware that he’s bisexual because of David Bowie.
For awhile it was titled “Five times Steve was painfully bisexual and no one noticed + the one time they did” but then I remembered that line!
“Oh yeah, this will work just fine,” He said to himself and then almost jumped off the roof when he heard the crunch of gravel and realized there was someone else on the roof with him. He grabbed his ice cream scooper, the closest thing he had to a weapon on him, and swung around.
“Didn’t mean to scare you, sailor,” the Jazzercise guy was on the roof, cigarette dangling from his lips as he spoke. He was still wearing that little pink tank top, his face a little red, probably from teaching a class.
“You didn’t,” Steve lied, leaning against the wall that lined the edge of the roof, trying to look cool even though he was wearing his stupid Scoops Ahoy uniform. Steve felt bold, so he added, “Hard to be scared of someone as pretty as you.”
“Sure,” the guy smirked. “I’m Craig.”
“Steve.”
“Oh I know,” Craig said with a little smile, finishing his cigarette and putting it out with his sneaker. “You’re kind of hard to miss, Steve.”
“Am I?” Steve looked at Craig through his lashes, a look he had deployed on countless women. He wasn’t sure why he was doing it now, or well, he was sure why he was doing it, but he didn’t know if it was something he should be doing. He’d heard enough shit about gay people from his bigoted friends that he knew this was probably a bad idea, that he might get his ass kicked, but he couldn’t stop himself. Steve had never really been one to think about the consequences of his actions, especially when it came to attractive people.

snippet monday
bc i wasn’t around yesterday xx thank u @spindrifters & @soloorganaas for the tags. maybe @greenvlvetcouch tagged me too? who knows, not me <3
“Well that was certainly an interesting little encounter,” James said, “Did you see his sweater? Looked pretty soft, wouldn’t you say?”
Sirius flicked through a stack of records labeled as ‘Beatles, The - Bowie, David’ but which contained only a dozen Bee Gees albums and avoided making eye contact with James, which was an answer in itself and both of them knew it. Sirius thought, “Everything about him looked soft.” “Their record selection sucks,” was what he said instead. “Well - this is a second hand store, so - we’re reliant on what people bring us to sell.” Remus came out of nowhere, popped up from behind the tall record shelving with his wavy hair and crooked, charming nose.  Sirius thought about the logistics behind sinking into the floor, or maybe even crawling underneath a table like a startled dog. Wondered which of the two might seem more attractive and mysterious and less pathetic. What happened instead is he squatted down for a moment like a giant bird was about to pluck him off the ground and carry him away. James had his phone out immediately, probably already had sent a photo to Regulus as well as everyone they’d ever met. Perfect. What a lovely day this was. Sirius stood up again, flushed from forehead to neck but Remus was looking at him. Like Sirius was a particularly difficult crossword, a six letter word for longing. Distantly, Sirius realized Remus had probably heard most, if not all, of their conversation.  “I quite like the Bee Gees,” Remus said, tapping his cane on top of the leaning stack of records. “Sirius is a bit of a snob, strict upbringing and all,” James said, patted Sirius on the shoulder and looked at Remus with an over-exaggerated frown, “very tragic, I’m sure he’d love to tell you all about it.” “I’ve always preferred love stories to tragedies,” Remus said, and the heat of his gaze threatened to boil Sirius over right there in front of God and the Bee Gees and everyone.

Lord Voldemort and The White Thin Duke
I know probably no one cares about this, but since I was very young, I’ve always had this curiosity about the looks of the Dark Lord during the First Wizarding War. Especially, I was intrigued by his depiction in the Half Blood Prince when, already graduated from Hogwarts, he started working at Borgin and Burkes. It is written that he speaks with a soft voice, that he wears his hair longer than it had been at Hogwarts, that he is thin with hollowed cheeks and – shockingly – that he doesn’t wear wizard’s robes but a black suit.
This is all very interesting to me, since I have this weird obsession of looking for cues about his personality, even in these scarce descriptions about his appearance and of course I get mad because of how difficult it is. The fact that he wears his hair long could be both a sign of vanity or a way of communicating his lack of interest about his looks – leading to him being a handsome man anyways.  Of course, we know that he does not crave for being considered beautiful, since a few lines ahead we come to know that he altered his features forever, during his permanence in Albania:  
His features were not those Harry had seen emerge from the great stone cauldron almost two years ago: They were not as snake-like, the eyes were not yet scarlet, the face not yet masklike, and yet he was no longer handsome Tom Riddle. It was as though his features had been burned and blurred; they were waxy and oddly distorted, and the whites of the eyes now had a permanently bloody look, though the pupils were not yet the slits that Harry knew they would become. He was wearing a long black cloak, and his face was as pale as the snow glistening on his shoulders.
-      Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, Chapter 20.
Can’t blame a young emo girl like me for falling in love with this man 10 years ago. Now, of course, my love remains unchanged, and I still have hard feelings for not have seen young Lord Voldemrot on the big screen, when I was a teenager (will the up coming series remedy to this? We don’t know).
So, my mind has wandered for a long time, searching for someone – made of blood and bones – that could resemble the description of First Wizarding War Voldemort that we are left with.
Conscious of the fact that no one is going to share my opinion, I think I’ve found an original solution to the problem and I’m going to stick with this till death.
In fact, while my literary heart is reserved for Lord Voldemort, my musical taste brought me to The Think White Duke, David Bowie. I know, it sounds crazy, but I believe that this amazing – and very missed – genius shares a lot of physical traits with young Lord Voldemort, during this mysterious years in the books.
So, I want to share with you this interview, hoping deep down that you’ll find the same similarities that I found some time ago and that never cease to warm my heart.
First, his voice: he speaks softly but fast – and with a wonderful British accent that, of course, he shares with Londoner Tom Riddle. He is polite but also elusive. He keeps all the attention on him and his words in the exact same way I imagine young Voldemort would do.
Second, his appearance: he is thin, almost skeletal and has something feminine in him that I personally find devastatingly attractive. He has the hollow cheeks and the thin lips with a crooked smile that – my personal point of view here – he could share with our young Lord Voldemort. He has long thin hands with slim fingers.
Now, imagine him with black hair – with the same haircut – and reddened eyes and I think we have it.
Also, I wanted to post here this picture, because I’m confident that this is the best representation we’ll ever have of what the Dark Lord should’ve looked like in the movies (I know I’m a minority here on this topic, but I absolutely dislike how Ralph Fiennes managed to act him in the movies, so disappointing). 
Tumblr media
Let me know what you think about this and please be kind with your words, since of course, this is a topic I care a lot about.
Yours,
Mathildis.

What draws you to someone aesthetically/physically? & which song or scent would you say has the vibes of your ideal partner
I’ll summarize it cause I could go on and on
Aesthetically, I’m very drawn to masculine/androgynous women and gnc lesbians, especially butches. I love alternative/ emo and goth fashion (Thanks David Bowie/Jareth), and I find it incredibly attractive on other people, and I also go feral for leather, tattoos, and hands decked out with rings. Physically I’ve always been attracted to tall, dark hair, dark eyes, but I have absolutely no preference in terms of skin color. I love a little muscle too, teehee. However, I wouldn’t rule someone out if they didn’t fit into any of these because at the end of the day, what matters most is how someone makes me feel. Someone could be the most handsome alt masc of my dreams, but if they’re an awful human, they’re not even on my radar.
Songs:
Ugh so many I can think of, but most recently it would be
Love You To Death, Type O Negative
Scent:
Something sultry with notes of pine or mint, or the smell of firewood
