You await the morning after on a sun that never set, and you'd rather be shackled with grief than riddled with regret. But regret is a call to action; grief: a self-satisfying pyre. You mistook your chains for worship, and you couldn't see the forest for the fire.

🎲 Is this a strange way to interact for the first time ever? Perhaps. Would @msbeanfl like a kiss regardless? Absolutely.

a smooch for Ms. Bean! a lovely way to start a friendship if you ask Elias~

Mr Peabody, enjoying his supper. (Bloodworms are to be sucked clean and the hulls left for the cleaner fish.) He complacently sucks on his worm.

And then, disaster! Bean darts through and grabs Peabody’s dinner and makes for the underbrush, Mr Peabody in hot pursuit! Clever girl!

(I would like to point out that there are more bloodworms available, but the worm in your partners mouth is more desirable than the one in the dish. No one need starve here.)

^That's the TLDR. Serious answers for Ms Bean below:

Sexual Identity: Prolifically bisexual/pansexual, although the in-world terminology she'd use might be a little more crude. She did that 'Fascinating' ending. The one where you seduce both the Acclaimed Beauty and Barbed Wit at the same time for the best possible result (and a trip to the Tomb Colonies). It's honestly surprising that she only has two "seen with" partners, probably just because of my actual shy self.

Romantic Identity: On the other hand, I think she definitely doesn't feel romance in quite the same way as alloromantic people. She participates in such things, but is lucidly aware of how it's all just performative, like peacocks showing off their feathers or a well-rehearsed dance. Her infatuation is driven by sexual desire - or a deep platonic appreciation in some cases - and in matters of courtly romance she feels as though she's more playing a character than being herself. All this is to say that she very much enjoys romance for what it is, but not for love itself.

Gender Identity: This one is the most complex, especially since it involves stuff I've not explicitly written about yet but that I have cooking in my drafts. Saying it loud for the first time, but

Ms Bean's entire story is a trans allegory! Plus she is actually canonically trans!! Trust me, it is confusingly both of these things at once!!! HAPPY PRIDE!!!!

Except she just... doesn't quite remember yet! Before she lost her memory, her Shapeling Arts-assisted gender transition went so well that she has now literally forgotten she was assigned another gender at birth. To give a little bit away, I'm sitting on a very personal plotline. Details, mostly regarding how it's drawn from my real life trans experience, below the cut for those interested.

The idea I have revolves mostly around the feeling that my childhood - and some of my adult life - has been stolen from me. The idea that I've been pretending to be someone I'm not fills me with so much rage, and I mourn that lost time as though the person who was never there existed and died all for nothing.

Ms Bean's story, and how it ties into that feeling, was inspired from being Nemesis-adjacent. I really don't want to spoil things, but I've told plenty of people in DMs and will continue to do so if anyone is actually genuinely interested haha. In any case thanks for reading, and I wish you all the happiest of pride months!

happy pride month!

question: how would you (their writer) describe your character's gender + sexual + romantic identity, and how would the character themselves describe it? fallen london is pretty welcoming of queer people, although their vocabulary for it is naturally very different from modern day

POV: You are literally 5 meters away from Wolfstack Docks, Troubled Waters is at 7, and Ms Bean just set the Engine Order Telegraph to Full Ahead

"LAND'S IN SIGHT! DON'T SLOW DOWN, NOW!"

I love your stuff!! Is it okay if I ask on the emotion challenge? D10 for @msbeanfl would work - she can be a bit of an adrenaline addict haha

I am terrified to know what she's up to here.

love those parts in early breaking bad where jesse would be like "yeah our forefathers. they call them that because there were four of them. like the four faces on that mountain. our four fathers." and walt would get so mad that he'd come as close to saying a slur as possible without actually saying it

#15 a kiss along the hips

My partner doesn't use Tumblr but caught wind of kisspocalypse and wanted to give it a go! They rolled #15 and decided to just go all in on the sauciness :D

I’ve gotten some asks about sharing my cats- you don’t have to ask a cat lady to spill the (toe)beans twice (I’ll see myself out).

I give you el gato #1, my eldest: Aaron Purr (the white kitten doing yoga).

I fostered kittens before rona & Aaron was an intentional foster fail from the Hamilkitties litter.

he’s had a toe fetish since birth, for both his own toes & unfortunately everyone else’s (see video exhibit #2) & is the living, breathing embodiment of a himbo: big of heart, dumb of ass.

I’m pretty sure he was a golden retriever in a previous life. he’s the only cat I’ve ever met that actually likes belly rubs & he used to play fetch before he contracted pure lazy disease.

he has giant, goofy eyes & my friends have actually memed the pics below (help yourself & please tag me if you use them- it would make my week).

art by my hella talented sister

he’s also obsessed with me: the boy will see me leave the apartment, then go sit outside my office & cry & cry & cry, hoping I’ll magically materialize. if he can’t be glued to my side at all times, everyone’s gonna hear about it (literally).

when I’m GIFFing or gaming in said office & I haven’t paid attention to him in sooooo long (i.e. 5 minutes), he’ll stretch himself up & oh-so-gently pat my face with his paw- also while crying. have I mentioned the whole “loves to cry” thing yet?

cries in loaf 🍞

Aaron also has allergies & let me tell you: hearing heavy breathing only to look up & see this face staring back with maximum creep intensity is, uh- it’s something.

Alexa, play Every Breath You Take by The Police

he has zero shame, few brain cells & I adore him.

Ms Bean Who? - A BIO

In almost all aspects of appearance, the word of choice for Ms Bean would be “austere”. Standing tall, straight, and broad, above average height for either/any sex, sharp angles adorn her countenance - from pointy chin to tightly-wound bun, pursed lips painted black, and a light scar crossing the piercing eye of a perceptive woman - punctuated by hollow cheeks: a trademark of hungry artists. 

But as strands of hair break rank, they frame her face in shadow. And those eyes, as round as figs, have a kind light lost within that betray this fiction of austerity. In truth, she is a hedonist through and through; many have witnessed her piercing eyes become softer glances, and the mask of temperance being thrown to the ground amidst other discarded garments…

Like many, Ms Bean was once fresh and penniless in the Neath, although recent ventures and windfall have made her healthy and spry; her body is lean in musculature, though covered in scars, both owing themselves to a new hobby in boxing. As for her academic pursuits, she has found talent as a Non-Speculative Author, which she is willing to fight people in defence of it being somehow different to non-fiction. Constantly adventuring for inspiration or recording the larger-than-life histories of fellow Londoners, her publications always stretch the boundaries of fact and fiction.

She has a reputation for both philanthropy (such as Ms Bean's Home for Dispossessed Unfortunates) and ruthlessness (found in the punishingly truthful pages of The Troubling Times). Driven by the idea that the world must be forced to change, she feverishly studies the Correspondence for some breakthrough in epistemology. Ms Bean will change hearts and minds; either with a spectrum of persuasive techniques, or by rewriting reality itself.

Elongation.

One of these is not like the others. Ms Bean is presented with a conumdrum.
