#I'm not even getting bot followers atm

[drempen]

Is it just me, or has the amount of porn bots spamming tags dramatically increased over the past couple of days? Like, I can't scroll through a tag for more than a few seconds without encountering numerous blatantly explicit porn links

online embarrassment | arthurtv

this was a req!! and i think its adorable

there will be a part two to this !!!

being a simple university student, you had simple pleasures - getting drunk on the weekend, binge watching tv shows, and a more strange one, online chess. you liked watching people play, you liked playing yourself, you loved the strategy aspect. on some websites you played on, there was the option of livestreaming your chess game - no faces or voices, but people could chat alongside you playing, and you enjoyed seeing input on your games.

one day you were playing a particularly tricky game, being forked from practically the get go, and being the victim of many pawn trades, you were definitely on a losing streak, even if you were just playing against a bot. it was being streamed, but there were only four people watching, not that embarrassing right? especially because it was hidden behind a chess username and no one knew who you were anyways, so it didn't really matter.

so when a comment came in,

ATV: i wouldn't have played rook to f4 there, leaves an opening for a three move check :)

your head tilted a little, turning back to the game and furrowing your eyebrows, trying to figure what they had meant - and they were right, the move was a little careless and it could lead to checkmate.

you nodded to yourself, trying to amend the damage by playing your bishop defensively, to which another comment came in.

ATV: sorry for backseat gaming here, but you could have check in two

you smiled a little more at the comment, placing one hand on your chin and the other on your mouse, following some moves for what must have been fourty-five seconds before you clicked, they were right again. you made the move, the bot making its response, defending also, before in a few short moves, the game was over, you had won by check.

youruser: @/ATV thank you! i still kinda suck after playing for so long lmao

ATV: @/youruser do you want a game? :)

youruser: @/ATV sure! i'll add you now :P

so you added them, and they requested a game. in the chatbox on the side, you saw another message just as they had moved their first piece.

ATV: so what's your name?

youruser: i'm y/n, what about you?

ATV: arthur :)

he moved with an unusual polish opening, so you played traditional and tried to take control of the centre. within a few minutes, he had one of your pawns pinned, and had taken another.

youruser: damn you're actually really good

youruser: feeling a little defeated here :)

ATV: i'm just a loser with far too much time on my hands

youruser: well i mean me too but still, you're smoking me

ATV: cause you're playing too much attack not enough defence

youruser: i feel i may need you to tutor me lmao

ATV: lets finish up this game rq and then i'll help lol

unsurprisingly, he won, but you actually came closer than expecting, and it was a pretty even match after the poor beginning.

ATV: you're actually pretty good, you were just being modest

youruser: hm well maybe

youruser: suppose i'll have to keep challenging you til i win >:D

ATV: do you have discord or anything? easier to explain and talk on there rather than chess in game chat lol

youruser: i do! i'll link it rq :)

youruser: it's yourdiscuser #1782

and from there, you began talking semi-regularly, you played chess often and spoke tactics and games, he helped teach you and you enjoyed the company.

youruser: isn't it really strange we know nothing about each other other then chess defence strategies

youruser: i mean what if you're the insane chess killer man

ATV: yes, thats exactly who i am, the Insane Chess Killer Man, can't believe you caught me red handed

ATV: i mean what do you wanna know

youruser: i mean, idk,,, where are you from? i mean i know you speak english but you could be from anywhere i guess :O

ATV: i live in england, what about you :)

youruser: me too! i'm in london atm for uni, getting my masters

ATV: i am also in london! so if you're getting your masters, you're like ... somewhere around 24?

youruser: yeah, i'm 23 :P

youruser: what about you? i mean i have a feeling you're not some sixty year old man based on the fact you use discord but idk

ATV: i'm 28,,, getting very old :(

youruser: wow, very old indeed, must be such a shame

youruser: its gonna suck when i'm gonna have to visit you in a nursing home to play chess with you in two years time

ATV: okay i'm not that old you divvy :)

youruser: kidding, kidding ! anyway, i have to go because i have class but,, if you maybe wanna add me on instagram, its @/youruser :)

getting back from your lectures and practically throwing your backpack on the floor and collapsing on your bed, you planned on rotting the rest of the day away in pajamas and consuming far too much social media.

you opened instagram to a new follower: @/arthurtv

you assumed it was arthur from chess, and obviously in curiosity you opened his page straight away, you were nosy and you wanted to know who he was.

the first thing that shocked you was what he looked like: you didn't know what you were expecting but you didn't think it was going to be him.

he was... attractive, you had to admit, and your eyes had widened once you had seen him.

the second thing that shocked you was his followers, and his bio - he was a youtuber?

classically, you had to be nosy and follow the links to his youtube, your eyebrows raised a little as you looked at his channel, giggling to yourself, he did commentary on reality tv? you hadn't seen that before, but once you watched a video, you realised he was funny, too. he made it funny, despite the fact that you had at first felt it was the strangest youtube topic ever.

youruser: why hello arthurtv

youruser: i was definitely not expecting you

arthurtv: why hello y/n

arthurtv: i could say the same about you

youruser: well i mean i don't have any surprises

youruser: but you are apparently known for commenting on 90 day fiance?

arthurtv: i'd argue you have some surprises

arthurtv: and yes, i make commentary videos! wasn't trying to hide it or anything, just was a weird thing to bring up in conversation :)

youruser: no, it seems cool! i wasn't judging :) i don't watch much youtube so i don't know too much about it

youruser: and anyways, what surprises do i have?

arthurtv: i wasn't expecting you to look like that i suppose

youruser: like what ??

arthurtv: i mean, i don't know, pretty i suppose

arthurtv: you're very pretty, i just didn't know what i was expecting to be honest

youruser: wow you thought i couldn't be pretty cause i'm a loser playing chess??? smh arthur

youruser: (i'm kidding, i didn't expect you to look like you either)

arthurtv: you know that's not what i meant!!

arthurtv: what did you expect me to look like then?

youruser: well since you're 28, i suppose i was expecting a zimmerframe or walking stick or something

arthurtv: ha ha very funny

[leaf-sheep]

As much as I appreciate the wonderful people who make sci fi and fantasy sex toys, tongue and tentacle themed dildos always just feel like they're going up against impossible expectations.

Like, the whole appeal of tentacles and tongues (for me, at least) is the prehensile aspect. Something that can not only push its way inside you, but that can then twist around to rub against all the right spots or even grab hold from inside so you can't pull them out...

ANyways. Um. Yeah so like I've seen a lot of dildos that follow this theme that still have amazing detail and do look like fun shapes, but I could never bring myself to get one because it'll never be what I want. I have seen some that are like SUPER long and flexible and those I could maybe be interested in? Those seem like they might have a little more versatility, but still not the full articulation of my dreams.

Although on that note, I do recall videos of some pretty interesting segmented snake-like robots...

Ok derailing this post as I'm writing it to talk about the potential for cutting-edge robotics in sex toys to bring all our dreams of tentacle monsters to life. Horny amateur opinions on robotics below the cut.

So we have these things, which have been around for a while (this image is from this 2013 article). Basically a series of solid links with little motors inside to let them twist into different shapes. I think if you fitted something like this with a silicone sleeve you could probably have something pretty good? The one in the picture looks pretty clunky but I'm sure you could design something with shorter links. Even with the sleeve though, it would still have that really solid core and probably not very pliable. Might be good for some things though, and probably the best for us robophiliacs.

Then we have designs like this. Its an inflatable tube where as air is pumped in, the plastic tube extends from the middle and extends forward. Kind of like those slippery plastic toys filled with goo from the aquarium that seem like they would make good sex toys but really don't? I think this one also works pretty straightforwardly for our purposes. You'd want a decently sturdy material for the balloon part (maybe even make it textured), and you'd want it to be lubricated before extending. That would probably mean extending it, lubricating it, then retracting it so that when it extends again its already good to go. I'm not an expert on how these things are usually controlled but the common use cases seem to be things like going into rubble or pipes, so it should be fairly well suited to extending into an orifice. Unfortunately as far as I can tell they don't have a lot of articulation once they are extended, though they can extend into different curved shapes, so it'd be more about getting filled.

And lastly (at least for this post) we have soft robots. I think the Spiderverse version of Doc Ock's arms took visual inspiration from these. These are usually a soft, rubbery, stretchy material, but they can be articulated in different ways. Some of them use tendon-like sections that compress or pull, others fill with air or water, but ultimately these are functionally the closest to muscles we have in robotics atm (at least to my knowledge). They're also... kind of enticing as they are already. They're naturally soft, and they have a very lifelike motion that I think is really appealing. You could definitely get some fun squirming motions with these.

The next problem would be making them smart, i.e. able to react properly to your movements and to be able to find the right areas automatically. As far as I know, these soft robots are mostly long extensions that are controlled from the base. That's just fine, but there isn't much feedback to the controller about what the bot is interacting with. Ideally, my robot tentacle monster lover shouldn't have to ask me if it's in yet. For the ones that work on water or air pressure you might be able to do something by reading the pressure changes from different sections to let it feel its way around a little bit? But that would still be pretty imprecise and clumsy. I'm not sure what the current state of the field is like right now for small pressure sensors, but that would probably be the best. Alternatively, maybe something like an ultrasound? You'd probably want some little pellets of hard material embedded in the bot tentacle to help it stand out. Don't they have new ones that can provide a proper 3D reading of babies and stuff?

Hmm actually that does sound hot. The machine spreads a cool gel on your belly and presses a sensor to your skin, so it can watch its arms slither inside you, stretching your belly forward almost as if there really was something alive inside... then once it's situated, it starts moving to slide the arms over all the most sensitive places...

Unfortunately I think it might be a little late to switch tracks to an engineering career so I can mad science my way into getting tentaclefucked by a robot and become a slave to my own creation. A tragedy.

NOBODY GETS ME LIKE YOU

It was the spring of 2020 where you meet Minhyung Lee, the one who you thought would last forever by your side through thick and thin. You were working part time as a barista at a coffee shop near your college and he was one of the regular customers of the coffeeshop.

"Can I have one banana smoothie and bagel, please?"

You are not going to deny that he does have a good looks. But you know better not to messed up while you are still working.

"Sure! Will that be all?"

You decided to take a good look of his face while his eyes are still scanning the menu. When he turned to look at you, that's when you tear your gaze away from him pretending look at anywhere else but him.

"Yeah, that will be all."

He cracks a small smile as he open his wallet before he handed you the notes to pay for his order.

"Oh, I'm sorry, but we only use cashless transaction here."

His eyes followed your hands which shows him the notice that says only cashless transaction is allowed.

He he purse his lips as he closed his eyes in embarrassment.

His cute gestures made you chuckled.

"It's alright, you are not the first one with the same mistake in here. Would you like to use your card, then?"

The clock reads 11:45 at the moment and you have to closed the coffee shop at 12 am. Since he is obviously the last customer, you thought that there is no harm in giving your kindness towards him. On the other hand, he let out a heavy sigh before thanking you for letting him know that there's some other people who did the same mistake as him.

"Yeah- But.. The truth is that I'm not good with card or stuff with machine thingy like the ATM or something like that. I guess I'll have to kiss my banana milk and that bagel a goodbye."

You appreciates his honesty and it feels a shame to let him go out of the coffeeshop empty handed.

"I'm afraid you will not kiss them a goodbye. The options that I have for you is for me to teach you to use the card if you want me to, or.. I can buy it for you. So which one of the options would you like to use?"

It is obvious that he did not expect the options that you gave him.

"Yo, I- I can't let you do that, you work here for a reason and you barely know me. I don't want you to use any of your money to me so you can keep it to yourself and use it for the stuff you wanna buy."

You can't lie that you are touched when you listened to his explanation about the reason why he don't want you to spend your money on him.

"And.. I kind of forgot the PIN number, only my mom knows it but I'm afraid she's asleep at this hour."

You nodded your head before you asked him to wait for a moment as you take his order at the kitchen. Few minutes later, you came out with his banana milk and bagel that you reheat just now. He was about to refuse when you swiftly hands it to him but insist that he should have it. And the next thing happened is you gave him a company as he finishes his banana milk and bagel while you are closing the coffee shop.

"I seriously can't thank you enough for this. The whole day was too hectic for me today and I did not even realize that I skipped my dinner. How should I compensate you though? I should return your kindness, so is there any way or anything that I can do to do so, please? "

It felt surreal that you, yourself have no idea how did your crush on him grows big and bigger from the moment he stopped by at the counter until this moment. But one thing that you know for sure, you gotta try to shoot your shot. And that's what you did.

"Maybe you can start by introducing yourself because I still don't have your name."

You successfully made him blushed so hard, and both of you spent the night getting to know each other while enjoying each other company until 1 am.

that night, you have learned that he is a Korean and his name is Minhyung Lee. But he mainly use his English name, Mark, around his friends. Apart from that, he is graduating from his high school soon and planning to further his studies at a college and both of you also learned that you are around the same age except for the fact that he is older than you.

Ever since then, he has been a regular customer of the coffee shop. And it would be a lie if you deny your true feelings towards him. You are afraid to confess because you are scared to get hurt by rejection. And you were glad you didn't. Because he just stopped going to the coffee shop and you had never seen him again ever since then.

A few months after that, you graduated from high school and got an offer to study at a college in Canada. You don't know why, but you decided to take the offer as it reminds you of Mark, who once mentioned that Canada was his hometown.

It is the New Year Eve where everyone is waiting for the countdown for the new year to start. And your eyes met with a pair of dark brown eyes which is familiar to you.

[WIP] 🧪 Shockwave & Overload 💫

icon for me TBA

Transformers: Animated AU [TBA]

Ship name/tag: 🧪 mad scientist power couple

Anniversary: April 26, 2023

F/O source: Transformers: Prime

My backstory: I'm a Cybertronian who, after creation, developed an interest in fauna of all kinds - including both Cybertron and alien fauna. I begin a program of study in biology, eventually graduating and beginning work under a scientist as an intern of sorts.

How we meet: I am assigned to work as an intern under Shockwave, serving as an assistant to him. This mostly starts off with me taking notes for him and providing help with experiments as needed, but eventually, I become his lab partner and we work equally on experiments.

First impressions: We're both neutral toward one another when we first meet. Neither of us is very conversational, so most of our time together when it comes to speaking stems from our lab work rather than personal lives. Shockwave especially can come across as cold when he does not know someone well (or does not respect them).

Getting closer: As I progress in my training and eventually become Shockwave's lab partner, we form an actual friendship. Shockwave, while still not a conversational bot, warms up to me, and we start conversating during our working hours. Eventually, I end up inviting him out for the evening, and we start going out around once a week to relax and catch up.

I had already found Shockwave physically attractive and developed a crush on him but kept it to myself for the sake of our professional relationship. However, Shockwave surprises me one evening when he admits that he has developed romantic feelings for me - something that he was not at all experienced with.

Beginning our relationship: I am taken aback by this confession but confirm that I feel the same way toward him. Though we prefer to keep our relationship strictly professional, I end up moving into my own lab eventually as our scientific interests diverge. Shortly after, I begin courting Shockwave, and we become Conjunx soon after.

Canon introduction: I stick closely with Shockwave as time passes and eventually end up joining him as a Decepticon - though I don't fully agree with Megatron and his methods, I wish to follow Shockwave wherever he may go. I primarily work as a lab partner to Shockwave, doing some research of my own on the side as well. I stay behind with Shockwave on Cybertron, using a spaceship to start exploring other planets to document their fauna. When Shockwave is injured after Cliffjumper and Arcee destroy his laboratory, I help him repair his wounds and stay at the lab to assist him as he heals. Once he meets Knock Out, Shockwave comes back for me on Cybertron, noting that I am a necessary asset as his laboratory assistant.

Ship trope(s): None ATM

Aesthetics: Experiments, space/stars

Our song(s): "Who Wants to Live Forever" by Queen

Favorite forms of affection: Very subtle forms of affection in front of others are our favorites - gently brushing our fingers or touching the other's back are favorites. In private, we will gently touch our heads together as a "kiss" (since neither of us have proper mouths). Shockwave also enjoys having his ear fins stroked gently (though always in private).

Favorite kind of date: Spending time out of the laboratory is how we like to bond. On Cybertron, we would go to a bar and find our own corner to sit in and talk. After making our way to Earth, we like to go for drives/walks together and enjoy the scenery.

Ways we comfort one another: [WIP]

What we love most about each other: [WIP]

[steelthroat]

Who am I?

think I need to make this post because I'm too messy, and I can't find my own things, so ahem... if you want to be able to navigate this blog, here's what you have to know about me:

Hi ^w^! Steelthroat here, and that's my username on Ao3 I also go by the nickname of Zero. I use any pronouns with a preference for "it", and "they" and I'm an art student. Based in Italy, but my goal is to conquer the whole world, just wait ;3

[I don't have Twitter anymore, my profile is there but I don't have the app, so I won't accept followers, I won't post nor interact with anyone. It's nothing personal I just hate Twitter and its owner.]

If you want my discord name to ramble about stuff [we're moots/have interacted and you are 100% an ADULT] message me :)

I write fanfictions, which you can find under the tag #fanfiction of Steel

I draw things! #art of Steel, atm just tf fanarts, but I may also post some Ocs. I already said that, but I post nsfw art. If you don't like it, please be careful

[New tag #steel requests dropped]

Once I create the tag and tidy up my blog, you can also get your popcorn and watch me ramble incoherently about new fic ideas, crack ideas, and vague vents under the #Steel rambles tag

I guess I really like Steel, huh...

Anyone can interact unless I block you. The bar is low, like, for example: don't be an asshole, don't spew racist/homophobic/transphobic(etc) things, and don't start drama because you're bored under my posts. If you really don't like me, just block me and save time and effort, no hard feelings, I swear....I also don't like myself sometimes, you have the power to never see me again at least :)/j

I love knowing new people so you can write to me, send memes, asks, etc, and I'll always be happy to interact with you in one way or another

If you look like a bot, you will be blocked and reported. I'm sorry, please, at least like someone else's posts or have a bio. I really can't tell if you're human otherwise.

Well, new tags are surely going to get added... one day, I guess :)

I hope you have fun here ^w^

[New tags added #steel monologues, steel writing and #steel answers]

[Also I advise you to read my tags, there's like a whole world of context and subcontext every time I post something. I'm not saying they're entertaining, I'm saying that sometimes they explain wtf is going on/alternatively they make you even more confused]

I also made a tutorial on how to fix broken zippers here

[dragoncxv360]

NOTICE: Hey, I would appreciate it if only 16+ people followed me because the stuff I post can be very suggestive, and just in general, my stories aren't meant for kids. I'm not gonna like rigorously go through my followers and check for ages, but like, if I spot a 13 year old following me, I'm gonna block 'cause it's just not comfortable

I’m Ellery, I mostly draw fanart and write fanfics atm, but I do occasionally make stuff for my ocs

I make both general dca art/fics and tsams art/fics so please don't get them mixed up, all tsams stuff will be tagged as such so please check the og tags on the post before assuming it's tsams. I mainly just mention this because outside of tsams I ship Sun x Moon (I shipped them well before ever getting into tsams) and I'd really prefer people keep them seperate. Also I ship a lotta stuff for tsams in aus so if tsams ships aren't your thing, you probably won't enjoy following me (which is ok, everybody likes what they like and not everybody has to like the same things).

Other fandoms you'll see me reblog stuff for and maybe make art for are Invader Zim, Shane Acker's movie 9 (the full film from 2009, not the short film from 2005). There's others but I don't feel like listing them all

I occasionally post art of pregnant characters but it’s tagged with #pregnancy and #cw pregnancy so you can avoid it

Nsfw stuff is on a side blog (with the exception being my ao3 which has both sfw and nsfw fics), suggestive stuff is on here but it’s tagged with either #nsfw and/or #suggestive #cw suggestive #tw suggestive

Commissions are closed atm

Drawing requests are closed unless otherwise specified

You can find my art on here under the tags #my art or #ellery's art, and you can find my writing under #my writing or #ellery’s writing

Asks are welcome, please keep some things in mind though. No nsfw, no gore, no venting or triggering topics such as self harm, suicide, or abuse. Also please no flashing images/gifs

Asks are currently off because of the spam bots, same with dms, these rules will apply if/when I turn them back on though

Currently looking for different options for making/selling stickers

You can support me on kofi

My fics are on ao3

Info post on my Security Sun Au

Info post on You’re Everything I’m Not (my oc story)

Things you can and can't do with my art and writing and stuff under the cut

Things you can do with my art, aus, and ocs:

- use my art as a phone/tablet/computer wallpaper (you don’t need to ask first)

- ASK to use my art as a profile picture or header/banner (the only exception to having to ask first is if I made the art for you)

- make fanart of my ocs and aus/fics, it makes me very happy to see people enjoying my stuff :D (please no gore, light blood is fine though. Please do not draw anything related to self harm or suicide, even for my fics that include such topics. Drawing Eclipse from my organic/recovery au with his canon self harm scars is fine, drawing said scars as actual wounds is not)

Things you can not do with my art, aus, ocs, or writing:

- you can’t repost, trace, copy, or edit my art (regardless of whether or not credit is given)

- you can’t repost my writing

- you can’t dub/voiceover/narrate my art or writing

- you can’t use my art or writing in AI generators or use my characters or writing in AI chatbots

- you can’t claim my art, writing, aus, ocs, or anything else I create as yours

- you can’t sell any of my stuff or otherwise use it to make a profit

- you can’t use my art for your ocs or dnd characters

- you can’t roleplay my aus or ocs

Ask first beforehand:

- ask before making nsfw fanart, and obviously minors are not allowed to do this ever

- ask first before making gift fics as there may be some things I wouldn't find comfortable

- ask first before taking heavy inspiration from my ocs/aus/fics. Things like making a genderfluid Sun too or even having a fic where Sun dies and Moon deals with the grief of that loss like in my fic Blood and Oil don't count imo, I mean stuff where it's like copying lots of things or copying hyperspecific details

[kxllboii]

REQUESTS ARE CLOSED ATM, SORRY-

I'm going to do my requests so you can ask for some stuff lol

I might just stick to these fandoms for now:

Monster High

Subway Surfers

Dont Hug Me Im scared

Welcone Home

POSTAL 1-Brain Damaged (even that Russian addon and POOSTALL teehee)

Old MCYT stuff maybe idk (just avatar stuff, not associated with the creators)

Emo/scene garbage loll (mostly of my ocs but yk)

OC art (Just send me a reference of your character so I can make them lol)

I can even answer questions!

If youd like art, please have some references of the character you want made. Most of the time, I wont know who you are talking about if it was a fandom I dont dabble in-

I wont do:

Personal questions

Any NSFW stuff (I dont really want to expose my followers to that stuff, you can like it but I just wont do it at all)

Any fetish art of any kind (I wont shame you, but please refrain from asking, it makes me a bit uncomfy)

Proship art (its kinda obvious-)

Stuff that isnt human or an animal (It isnt because I dont want to, I just cant draw things like vehicles and buildings-)

Real people (I suck at making real life people, plus I definitely wont know who they are, not a big celebrity person lol)

Random links to stuff (I dont want to see sketchy links, itll automatically be deleted-)

ANYTHING FROM PORB BOTS (Ik these arent usually real people but I gotta put it in anyway)

So I might just limit some requests, I may not respond too quickly or get to it as much as I would be. Im not ignoring anyone, promise <:)

Anyway, hope this will be okay with all of you and I hope to see ya later!

-Kxllboi

UPDATE: I may have to do a limit of characters for one request, I might not finish one piece with a ton of people.

**FOUR CHARACTERS AT A TIME PLEASE**

UPDATE 2: My sleep schedule is all messy, so if you do request something, please be patient. I'll get to your requests

Thank you for your time

- Kxllboii

I’m too tired to tag anyone specific- but if you want to share consider yourself tagged by me <3

[devilsainz]

Tagged by @watercolor-hearts, I'm actually surprised someone remembers my @ to tag me in these! quite heartwarming tbh, thank you lovely, hope you have a nice day/evening/morning 🤗💙

Name: my true name starts with a. m. but since i'm a person on the verge of mixing reality w/ virtual i rather be just called goggles lmao (not to be too vague, my second one is miguel, a quite common latino name, but the first one is quite unusual and it feels too real to be called like that so im hiding it lol)

Sign: Leo (i copied from the op who tagged me and yes this is my sign as well)

Time: 19:16 (i definetely spent too much time elaborating and correcting my own answers lmao)

Favourite band/artist: the short version or the long one? cause honestly im kind of into music as a whole, but to select just a few, i'd say Fiona Apple, Joanna Newsom, Beyoncé and Björk. yep, all ladies, dont ask me why but i just connect with female vocalists more

Last movie: ooh.. this one is quite been some time actually... i think it was Knives Out: Glass Onion! just a little bit of silly fun entertainment and cause i was honestly curious cause i liked watching the 1st knives out.

Last show: Drive to survive 🤷‍♂️ im not a very series person tbh (even dts i only watched the eps i actually was curious about lmao)

When I created this blog: this kind of has 2 answers idk. because this used to be a ziam - yes you read that right - a ziam blog lmao but i didnt put much thought into it tho. then i just stopped using for years, and i just came 2 months ago back to delete it and replace with this actual blog cause i discovered the charlos side of tumblr and wanted to interact w the blogs i discoveeed, reblog and all that jazz.

Other blogs: other than the one i deleted, no, i just have this active blog.

Do I get asks: no i turned them off lol but i dont mind actually i get kind of peaceful thinking im just a dot in this vast virtual world of internet, at least here

Followers: 125 accs (i guess, i dont check bots but i dont think there are too much of them)

Average hours of sleep: i guess it varies on 6-8? there are days a sleep a little bit later but tbh i dont keep track of these lol but i can tell i've been pretty okay with my schedule lately, at least my insomnia stopped

Instruments: nope. i have a shitty keyboard but i just gave up on learning, but i do plan on trying again, just dont know when

What I am wearing: green shorts and an ugly printed but comfortable t shirt

Dream job: i mean, it says dream job... so i might go full in... singer/songwriter 🤓

Dream trip: actually i'm not really obsessed about trips anymore... but if i had to pick one i'm just saying Madrid cause its where carlos jr was born 🤓 (i still want to go there and investigate in person to find his official time of birth btw, so yep im picking madrid)

Favorite song atm: i have a lot of songs being my faves simultaneously and it changes fast depending on the moments/moods but im going with In California by Joanna Newsom cause the chorus when she sings "cuckoo cuckoo" its freaking amazing tbh. for my more upbeat side tho i'm picking Those Eyes, That Mouth by cocteau twins.

Tagging:@leclercsbf and @leoramage (tagging you two cause you were the ones to start a conversation w me so i think it wouldn't be too awkward lol but hey, feel free to ignore if you dont want to or dont like these, no hard feelings, were just dots in a virtual space)

(ps: i was actually very defensive about these kind of posts but i tried this one for fun and hey it is fun! it was kind of cool to talk about myself freely without my face or name plastered on it so thanks for that, person who tagged me)

AAAAAH Im so excited your requests are open, love your writing! Could I get headcanons for how Optimus, Bee, and Mirage (during the events of rotb) would react to finding out the reader has been hiding that they're actually a shapeshifter (let's say they can turn into a big wolf, or something like the light fury from httyd, like a limited range of creatures they've seen depending on what they need atm to fight or be stealthy, and have advanced abilities in general and such), they've been secretly sneaking out and destroying terrorcon communications/base stuff at night in an attempt to help the autobots, but not telling anyone because she thought they disliked humans (like she knows mirage and bee are friendly, but the team wanna leave earth asap and there's Optimus' whole sentiment of not trusting) and they notice because she keeps dissapearing at night, getting random injuries she hides, and is always tired. She also has feelings for the bot, but hides it since she thinks it's unrequited, but maybe they've kinda had some moments together already (y'know like prolonged moments of touch, like how charlie touched bee's face gently a lot lol but reader instead) but she just thought they were being friendly.

Sorry if this is too specific or long, i just think it would be really neat to explore how they'd react in a situation like that, since I think Optimus most of all would be shocked at a human helping them for nothing in return and having similarities to them. I think it'd be a fitting situation for their personalities tbh. Thanks and I'm excited to see your thoughts! >:D

-🦊

Thank you!!

Bumblebee:

Bee began to notice something was different, but he couldn't tell what. You were always tired even though you had been resting the day before. And he could swear you had a new bruise each week. But whenever he asked you dismissed it. He let it go thinking you would tell him if you wanted to.

Curiosity got the best of him and he was too suspicious to let it go. He stayed awake one night, thinking you must be doing something at night. His suspicions were correct when he saw you sneaking out. He followed you, all the way to a terrorcon tower. He was confused, wondering why you would possibly go there. He didn't know what a human could do to it.

Then he watches you shapeshift into a form able to take the tower down. Bee is surprised and astonished, for a few moments he just watches you. After the initial shock wore off Bee decided to confront you.

He walked over to you, catching your attention. He asked why you never told him. He would have wanted to know.

He listens to your explanation and understands. Optimus has been quite vocal about wanting to leave. He apologizes for making you feel like you couldn't tell him. He reassures you that he does like humans, and he likes you. He states that now he knows about you he'd like to team up and work together on future missions.

Now that he knows he has a lot of questions, he wants to know all the forms that you can turn into. He decides to go out each night with you and uses it as an excuse to spend more time with you and get to know you better.

Mirage:

He could have sworn he saw a creature, every night he definitely saw something. But he couldn't say what, and he had no proof so no one believed him.

One day he saw the figure again and this time tried to chase after it. He follows the creature to a secluded area and traps it, wanting to get proof. The creature shifts back into you in your human form.

Mirage is amazed for several reasons. He's stunned that you can shapeshift and impressed that you have been helping.

He has so many questions and tries to ask you all of them.

He wants to thank you for the help you've given, but also ask you to start including him in your adventures. He wants to get to know you and all that you can do. He'd love to compare your shapeshifting ability with his own.

He also wants to show you off to the others to show that he isn't crazy but he will wait until you are ready to tell the others.

Optimus:

He was very suspicious as to who was secretly helping them and why they hadn't show themselves. Which is why he often went patrolling to see if he could catch the culprit.

Eventually, he saw you. He can understand why you never showed your true form, for the same reason he never showed himself to humans. What he doesn't understand is why you would help them. What was in it for you to help them?

He confronts you, asking why you would put yourself at risk to help them when gaining nothing? He assumes there must be something you want, and is greatly surprised to find out you did it just for them and for nothing else.

He has to take a second to process and acknowledge that his thinking of all humans was wrong. He still won't trust all of them blindly, but he has to realize that there are some good ones out there.

He won't tell anyone your secret, happy to protect that information.

He still worries about letting you help, more for the fact that he is worried you could get hurt. He doesn't want you to get injured on his behalf. But if you truly wish to lend a hand, then he will accept it and he will be grateful for your teamwork.

Hi!! I just found out you had a tumblr and I saw your rdr2/tfp (of timelines and trolleys) crossover idea and I was just wondering if you’d be willing to expand on that? 👀 (unless you don’t want to give away any spoilers lol)

My rdr2 and tfp hyperfixations have made resurgence lately and the idea of that crossover sounds so cool!!! (I’m rereading your fic atm, it’s so fucking good I need it injected directly into my bloodstream)

WELCOME!!!! and thank you so much for the compliment ��＾ω＾）

I've actually been working on the rdr crossover here and there, but I'll definitely start giving it more attention. (I feel I've moved to the acceptance stage of grief, but writing fanfic about it might implicate bargaining... eh I'll get some laughs out of it regardless)

I do want to make a mini-fic that's more put together than my PJO au, but has more content than some of my drops in Worlds of A Disgruntled OC so instead of rambling, how about I give you a sneak peak of what I'm working on?

°˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°

Ashlyn Moore was an incredibly unlucky person. It wasn’t a matter of opinion, it was an objective fact of the universe. As cut and dry as gravity’s rules or the laws of energy conservation. A dependable and evidentially supported fact of life, and much like Murphy’s Law, it could be invoked at any moment.

Such as right now.

Here, lying here, with a rock pressed against her spine and dirt rubbing against her skin, Ashlyn Moore was faced with such evidence that would seal her title as the unluckiest person in the world. Because how many people crossed dimensions not once, but twice within a year?

Wrinkling her nose, the girl didn’t bother to open her eyes. She was content to simply lay there, in the dirt, ignorant to the specifics of whatever world she’d wandered into for now. Not much different from what Ashlyn had been doing with the voices, and that had been working out great so far.

As much as she would love to reveal in unknowing bliss, dimensional travel had a very distinct feeling. An odd dreamlike haze, as if reconnecting a mind to a body that had been nothing but split atoms and a handful of migrating molecules moments before was an arduous task. A process not quite complete, even after eyes opened and sight returned. Ashlyn only had a rough guess of the moment her world had first blended with fiction, the transition too vague to truly define, but the sensation of other was too distinct not to connect to. And now, she had relived it once more. That was one aspect of reality, of whatever had happened when energon met that stupid rock, that she could not ignore.

The world had shifted, yet again, and she had no clue how to fix any of it.

Honestly, it was rather predictable, wasn’t it? Didn’t take a lot of brain power to figure out once those few details became clear and the story came into focus like the tapes of an old film.

Miko had tried to sneak out and watch a bot fight. Jack following to make sure the girl didn’t get herself killed was typical. Ashlyn, herself, had been bored out of her mind and resorting to watching mind-numbing videos of a survival expert cooking some Michelin-level salmon with tin foil and alternating to a shirtless man digging out an underground house with a piece of bamboo. Feeling faintly inspired, she’d been prepared to give the latter a try in the base’s walls. The fact that mud and roots were replaced by stone and steel would only add to the challenge. When Jack had catapulted after Miko, narrowly missing in his half-hearted tackle attempt, it was like a dinner bell rang.

Entertainment! Come get your free, entertainment! No broken nails or mining is required!

A pity, she’d been fascinated by the chance to create a hiding place in the walls for the whole 5 minutes the idea had spawned in her mind.

But this would work too.

Sharing a look with Raf, the pair had slyly put the computer down, still playing a collection of YouTube’s greatest survival tips, and followed their fellow homo sapiens. She may have been the oldest of the quartet, but Ashlyn was not their keeper. She was going to enjoy this little impromptu field trip while she could. 

Hidden on a cliff-side, the group held front-row seats to the mini-battle that unfolded beneath them. Ashlyn hadn’t recognized the scene or location, so she’d been too engrossed in the drama to take note when Miko had once again started to move. She’d only realized that anything had changed when Raf had asked what the younger girl was doing near a cave.

Ashlyn hadn’t stopped Miko from interacting with the carvings. Not from the photos or touching the chipped pieces. The design was familiar, even as it seemed jarringly wrong, but Ashlyn couldn’t quite identify what episode those odd drawings were part of. But if they were here, they must be important. 

Who was she to stand in the way of the plot?

Her hesitation was a mistake.

Bad luck had decided to strike again, and the last thing Ashlyn remembered seeing was a sudden blast and hearing the sudden screams of her companions.

In the glare of the light, Ashlyn could have sworn that the carvings had started to dance.

Thus, the latest evidence proving the Laws of Ashlyn had been added to the cosmic tally. She was unamused, but at least she was no longer bored. Ashlyn almost wished she was bored.

Yet, one must count their blessings. The air was warm and pleasant, breathable which was good. The rock that was pressing between the vertebra of her spine had not cut into it, and the tickling sensation of grass and dirt proved that she still had sensation in her limbs.

Somehow she was the unluckiest person in the world, but she still had enough luck in her to walk away with that evidence. Perhaps, in another life, she might’ve been a cat. A black cat with nine lives and the audacity that can only come from not having a single one stolen.

She smiled at the thought of sauntering down fence tops and lounging on tree branches. It must feel something like this, shadows dancing over her face as leaves danced in a merry breeze. Warm sunbeams caressed her form as she would laze away the day, blissful and unconcerned about the troubles of reality.

If only she was actually a cat.

Maybe if she opened her eyes she’d find that such a dream had been fulfilled.

Considering her luck, probably not. But now, with everything but her soul in question, she couldn’t prove that she wasn’t one. Schrodinger’s Cat was her preferred state of being usually, just for the simplicity of it. Why tack on a feline version for her sanity’s sake? 

She is a cat. She is not a cat. She is Ashlyn, and that’s more than enough.

With that line of thought, the girl’s mind drifted off into a strange breed of nonsense that could not help but taper off into a dream. Ashlyn Moore took a nap, not knowing where she was but quite sure that she was alone and that such problems could wait for whenever she deemed it prudent to leave this uncomfortable spot.

Had she not been so nonchalant, some things would have carried on very differently. For instance, a man, full-bearded and with a sour attitude came across the sleeping girl. Spotting a young woman, dressed oddly and splayed out beneath a tree, Bill Williamson shouldered his gun and stared.

What exactly was he supposed to do here?

Bill had seen many strange things in his life, from his stint in the army to his career as an outlaw, life had a way of tossing weird shit all over the place.

Stepping closer to the stranger, dry earth crunching beneath his boot and fingers itching to grab the carbine repeater once more, the man gave a start as some wild beast bellowed in the distance.

It took a moment to realize it was just the lady snoring… so she was alive then. Sleeping like a baby grizzly, complete with a little snot bubble that rose and fell with every “mehu.”  

Stepping back, Bill sighed and rubbed his head. Just their luck that first thing after getting off that goddamn mountain a stranger appears right outside of camp. The women hadn’t even unpacked yet, Mr fucking Morgan’s wagon with Hosea and Charles hadn’t even arrived yet! Dutch hadn’t even done one of his speeches yet and already something unexpected had happened. Lone woman or not, the situation was suspicious.

The gang couldn’t risk gaining any attention or trouble, not until they had the money to split properly. Or until Dutch come up with another plan. 

Looking back at the woman, Williamson took in her odd clothes. Jeans a few sizes too small, boots that didn’t look like anything he’d ever seen and a jacket that might’ve dyed leather. Oddly dressed, yes, but, other than a branch sticking out of wild hair, she was well-groomed and appeared healthy from a quick glance. Not some poor waif, likely had a family that would notice if she went missing.

Drat.

Dutch also wouldn’t appreciate killing a random woman just because she decided to nap near the camp. Besides, there was no confirmation that she’d seen anything. No confirmation that anyone knew where she was or would suspect them if she went missing. Valentine was a small town. People talked in small towns. People were suspicious.

The Van Der Linde Gang did not need help to be seen as suspicious.

Poking her with his boot, Bill watched as that lady scowled and swatted it. He thought he could hear her muttering about something.

Leaning closer, Bill hovered over the girl in hopes of overhearing. Maybe pick up some clues on this latest shit that had been tossed his way.

He failed to account for the girl waking up.

Ashlyn Moore, opening her eyes to a strange, kinda familiar, ruffian hovering over her acted on pure, engrande reflex.

Always aim for the eyes, her mother had told her.

Her hand moved quickly, fingers winding in the coarse foul-smelling beard, and pulled. Her other hand met the surprised and teetering man’s face.

A solid crack sounded off as blood spurted. The man screamed, shrill and high as he fell back on his heels, hands too occupied with his broken nose to reach for his gun.

What luck. What wondrous, good-for-nothing, terrible luck.

“Y-you! YOU BITCH!”

Amid the whining, Ashlyn could hear trees rustling and other voices sounding off in the distance. Had she not just woken from a nap, the girl might’ve taken her wake-er hostage with that pretty rifle. Or maybe she would have demanded to speak to his boss, manager, or mother about his horrid manners. Alas, still sleep-addled, Ashlyn felt the incoming forces of retribution and bolted out of the forest, into an open clearing, and ran out into the plains without bothering to think about where she was going.

Bill for his part, was left with explaining to Javier what the hell happened when the Mexican bounded over pistol drawn and just quick enough to see a shadow darting away. As Mrs. Grimshaw set his nose and smacked his head, Javier wouldn’t stop laughing about Bill losing a fistfight to a deer.

Uncle said it must have been a branch.

Bill remained quiet, sulking as Mr. Morgan drove his wagon in and listened to the tale.

“Nah. Must’ve been a twig.”

Bill really wished he had shot that girl.

Hello hi, its been a while! A, long while actually hchcchchjc So sorry about that tbh 😔

I've been having a rough time still, both with attempting to improve my overall health but also with my mental health being fairly low; my anxiety especially has been going wild for the smallest things. I would like to get back to writing, although I'm def gonna need to do a revamp of my sideblog for one.

The biggest change that's coming though is that I plan on dropping all my current threads and asks.

I feel bad doing it as there's a lot of threads I still love, but it has been a long time of struggling with my writing muse and in the last year or more I've probably done 3 responses on each one. I believe I need a fresh start tbh, at least with threads. I'm not moving blogs or anything, its way too much ambition for me anyway, and plz always remember that even though I'm dropping all my current threads it doesn't mean I don't wanna rp with ppl! I am more than open to writing new threads and plots ❤❤❤ And introducing some new characters on my sideblog. ^^

This post is kind of a mess but my brain is running a mile a minute lmfao. Atm I only just finished blocking the 99 bots following my 3 blogs here >> So that was fun lmao. Hoping to get back into writing very soon!!

[hislittleraincloud]

These are gonna lead to any of the following that I should be working on

spewing more Miller's Girl fic dialogue

Miller's Girl smut

Wenjax Almost Smut (Deleted Scene)

something completely random regarding Chapter 8.2 because I'm feeling Bianca and Ajax atm

writing a 3rd 100 word drabble to complete a tryptych of traditional drabbles (more on that in a minute), which are mini-Deleted Amusements from Afterburn

I don't write movie reviews when high, so I didn't put the review on the list, even though its notes are all there and I know what I need to say about it that others have not. The bots aren't on the list either, but I can forget about them quick when I'm on a creative roll, and that's what it's become with this fucking MG shit.

It's looking more and more like the Valentine upload will be the Miller's Girl fic, since I can't get locked into 8 with these damn cat sitting distractions (she was supposed to come home yesterday, but the storm fucked things up, and now she isn't answering texts...so...hope she's aight but I'll be upstairs kinda-sorta writing and watching TV with the cat). My creative process just doesn't work like that, with Afterburn. I need constant peace and quiet with little more than breathing, smoking, eating every once in a while, hydrating with Gatorade, and maybe bathing in order to concentrate on this last chapter, in spite of having big, serious scenes already written for it.

And speaking of all this writing: Color me shocked to see that someone in the AO3 groups says that they post 200 word "chapters".

Two hundred words is a 'long' drabble, not a chapter. Five hundred words is probably the longest form of drabbling, but I had a series that was 666 words for each part at one point.

But anyway, drabbles. One hundred words. This goddamn fandom and ALL fandoms need to get back to this type of writing, because it forces you to choose your words wisely. Dialoguing doesn't fucking count. That wades into screenwriting, and we're not writing for the screen here, we're writing to paint pictures. Can pictures be painted w dialogue, of course they fucking can, but that's not the point here. The point of a 100-word exercise isn't to constrain anyone's creativity, but to flex it. Show us what you can do with that limited space. Damn, maybe I need to put that challenge out.

Anyway and either way, Ortega's characters are gonna get a workout tonight. 🤠➰🫴🏽💕✨

I figured I should write a little here about the ongoing situation with @lazytoday's account, both to share this info to our common mutuals and to tell my mutuals & followers why I'm most likely not going to be around much for the time being.

You might know she created her current account after Tumblr terminated the previous one without any explanation or response to questions. And now her new account is simply put being treated like a bot. Posts don't show up under tags, I didn't get a notification when she tagged me, nor did she get one when I tagged her. And I just noticed that I can't see her likes anymore, even though I know she has liked plenty of my stuff. Even the comments she has posted are now hidden:

(and yes, that refers to what I know to be her replies.)

She has contacted support, once again, and once again there's been no response. I decided to do it too and wrote them a pretty long message explaining all that has happened, and guess what? They replied! Yay. It was a very sympathetic and nice reply, for sure, but in the end pretty useless. They told me this: "Since she has already contacted support multiple times without a response, I recommend reaching out to our team again by submitting a detailed ticket via our support form: Tumblr Support Form."

And that link... takes you to the abuse site where you can report violations of guidelines. I don't know if I'm stupid or what, but I can't find a place there where to write any "detailed tickets" (if someone can, please tell me too!) I sent a reply asking about this, but just guess if there's been any reply to that...

Also... the form I first used is "for technical issues and general weirdness." Why isn't it enough I've sent them a message there? It does sound like the correct place for this. Why do I have to do it again in some mythical place I can't find? I just don't get this.

But the thing is... I love this hellhole of a site, but atm, I also hate it, and I can't really enjoy being here right now. This matter bugs me too much. So I won't be around much for a while, I think. I will check messages and stuff occasionally, but I might be slow to reply. (lol, imitating tumblr here, huh?)

@staff, I'm pretty sure it's useless to tag you here, but seriously, can anyone there help with this matter?
