COLOURS: Symbolisms, Associations & Psychological Effects

Black. Especially in Gothic literature from the West, a black colour choice often represents death, evil, grief, and depression. Associated with fear, the unknown and often has a negative connotation. Black clothes can make you look thinner. A black background severely diminishes the readability of most type. Often the go to colour for funerals and grieving. It symbolizes stability and power, which gives a sense of authority. Thus, the black colour often represents professionalism and expertise.

Blue can also signify sadness, melancholy, or isolation. People who find someone very loyal and faithful are often called "true blue". Blue is often considered to be more masculine which is why it is often the colour of choice when choosing a suit. Lighter blues are associated with tranquility, softness and healing.

It’s the colour of peace and confidence. Blue has been shown to reduce blood pressure and pulse rate. It fosters serenity and a sense of belonging.

Green. The colour green often symbolizes rebirth, growth, peace, jealousy, and greed. Green colours may also represent spring and renewal. It is a colour that is very easy on the eyes. Dark green is often associated with ambition. Green suggests stability, safety and hope. At the same time, it may denote a lack of experience in a particular field. Green symbolizes peace, growth, and nature. It is the colour of success, promoting healing and tranquility.

Orange. The colour orange often represents energy, excitement, joy, and creativity. Since orange is the colour of fire, it may also symbolize heat. Since orange is not as aggressive as red, it can actually stimulate brain activity. It is very useful to catch someone's attention, which is why it's used a lot to advertise food and toys.

Pink. The colour pink symbolizes love, kindness, femininity, innocence, and playfulness. Certain shades of pink can limit aggression. Pink may be associated with unconditional love and caring.

Purple. Often associated with royalty, the colour purple symbolizes bravery, spirituality, and luxury. Light purple usually brings up romantic or nostalgic feelings; while a darker shade can make you feel gloomy or sad.

Red. The colour red symbolizes some of the most powerful human emotions, like passionate love or lust. On the other side of the spectrum, this warm colour is also the colour of blood, often symbolizing anger, danger, and violence. It stimulates the appetite.

White. This primary colour traditionally symbolizes innocence, peace, and cleanliness. In Western cultures, the colour white also represents purity and virginity, while it symbolizes mourning in some East Asian cultures. Usually has positive connotations when used and thought of as safe. Associated a lot with healing, simplicity and sterility, which is why it's used in hospitals and healing centers as much as it is. The symbolic meaning of the colour white is truth and sometimes even indifference. It encourages feelings of safety and cleanliness. Clean, white clothes and linens show sterility since stains are easily visible. That’s why doctors and nurses frequently wear white lab coats and scrubs.

Yellow. Writers may use the colour yellow to symbolize creativity, happiness, optimism, and warmth—think of a yellow ray of sunlight poking out from a dark cloud. A common negative connotation of the color yellow is cowardice, popularized by the phrase “yellow-bellied.” Warming effect which stimulates body and mind. Gold is associated with the highest of luxury. When bright yellow is used with black it's one of the easiest colour combinations to see from long distances; when uses with lighter colours it's not so easy to see. Yellow ribbons are worn as a symbol of hope and used quite often to welcome home loved ones. Yellow is the colour of warmth, kindness, and happiness. It’s often associated with optimism and well-being and promotes energy.

Brown. This warm, earthy brown colour may symbolize dependability, comfort, and a sense of being grounded. Brown is also a neutral colour, and writers may use it to represent dullness and predictability. Brown is a colour that is related to very grounded traits such as simplicity, practicality, common sense and hard work. Can also be associated with those that are frugal and not too flashy.

Gray. Lighter grays are often thought of as more feminine while darker grays more masculine. Gray is considered by many to be a neutral colour; the perfect balance between light and dark / good and evil. Pop up the lighter grays and add a little shine to it, and thought immediately turns to silver, which correlates to wealth.

VISUALS & SCENTS. (part i)

Sirius Black, the prettiest of the marauders with a soft jawline and hollow cheeks. light freckles atop an aquiline nose and narrow lips. clean-shaved ALABASTER skin that looks translucent in certain lights. silken flesh and straight eyebrows, COFFEE in colour. his dark hair curls over his ears. dainty and veiny hands. Doe eyes of COAL black with silver hints. Hints of ANISE and LAVENDER line his uniforms, an aromatic scent.

Remus Lupin, the Casanova of the Gryffindor tower (propaganda). MOUSE brown hair with faint undertones of red. PEACH coloured skin, connotations of youth and ripeness. Cat-like BOTTLE GREEN eyes with specks of CHARTREUSE, fringed by thick eyelashes. Scars line his face, rich and polished against his complexion. Douses his knit sweaters with notes of CLOVE and HELIOTROPE. Lithe build, slumped over a walking cane.

Of BRONZE skin and veined arms, James Potter was an age-old vision. Heavy eyelashes that sit upon bushy eyebrows. The nose of an ancient Roman warrior, wired frames sit upon it. ROSEBUD lips with gap-between front teeth. His eyes, chestnut and russet in theory, olive in sunlight. Thick and curly hair that encompasses his cherub face. Cologne undertones of VANILLA, PEAR and subtleties of RASPBERRY.

Peter Pettigrew with soft FLAXEN hair. ROSY skin with PINK cheekbones. A pudgy form and twitchy, rough hands. Notes of CINNAMON and shallow CEDAR. Deep-set eyes casted with SIENNA brown, hooded like a fox. A crooked nose with a scar running along the surface. Smooth-shaven skin and fluttery eyelashes.

goddamn y’all can someone pls spare rosekiller horny thoughts 😭 growing desperate here!

yeah so like… barty jerking off and evan choking him with a belt.

he's got this thing for the way it looks against barty’s throat. fascinated by how leather digs in against the fairness there, so stark. and barty's trying so desperately to keep his eyes locked with evan's, almost like a challenge. but its the same every time—his eyes start to roll, fluttering when evan pulls the belt tighter.

evan can almost see the struggle playing out right there in barty's eyes—determination to stay present, to somehow still be on top. because barty's never been one to just lay down and submit; but its like his body has other ideas, eyelids getting heavier, starting to droop. and he's trying so hard, truly. evan tells him so. cause there's this split second where ev can almost hear his frustration, annoyance at his own body for not keeping up with his will.

but ev likes to see it—perverse fascination, a fucked up mix of morbid curiosity and pity. watching barty struggle like a winged bug on its back, his body twitching and rhythm around his cock stuttering the longer evan holds the belt taught. evan's waiting for that moment, when it’s been a while and barty’s skin goes almost translucent. when he can see the blue-green veins map under his skin. and when he lets go, letting barty intake in a ragged, gasping breath, how the color rushes back alabaster to nude to flush red. like watching a peach ripen in fast motion.

and ev knows the human body, knows that it can only withstand 180 seconds without air. he doesn't need to count, but finds himself doing it anyways. because wants to find out exactly how long it takes, how many times he has to bring barty there for him to leave his the pale of his throat marked. bruised purple with the imprint of a buckle.

I WAS LOOKING THROUGH THE TA DISCORD FOR SMTH AND I FOUND AN OLD ACTOR AU AND I AM HERE TO SHARE

PJO/HoO/ToA are the main shows and its sequels

That one scene on the Princess Andromeda before Beckendorf died, when they dump his bag out and it's a bunch of peaches? They had to reshoot that ~27 times

Percy and Ethan are actually best friends, they have SO much fun with their on screen rivalry

Same with Luke and Percy

Luke and Annabeth are sibs, she was adopted by May after she ran away

Jason hangs out on set while he waits for Thalia, he likes the free entertainment

Luke is a child actor

Silena and Lee are best friends

Lee still hangs out on set even after his character dies because he can

Chris breaks characters a lot because he cannot be serious

He is everyones best friend though

The blooper reel/BTS are mostly just the cast being absolute IDIOTS

Percy likes to make fun of (affectionately) of Grover while he gets into his makeup and costume

A lot of the couples are dating IRL(Beckengard, Chrisse, Percabeth)

They do those silly videos where they bring cats on set and that is the best day of Ethans live

There are two spin-off shows that take place during PJO

One about the TA

When Alabaster shows up, everyone is confused until someone just pulls out a screen capture from PJO S5 and points out that Al is standing behind Ethan

"HES A BACKGROUND CHARACTER IN THE MAINS SERIES!??!?!?!"

Percy and Alabaster are also best friends

The two of them and Ethan are the MOST chaotic trio on the set

Alabaster was also adopted by May :D but he goes between May and his bio mom where his half sister(cough lou cough) lives :))

The TA cast find it HILARIOUS when they see fans shipping Ethabaster

They point out how they look at each other

Ethan and Al are dating IRL, thats just them genuinely looking at each other

Thaluke who've been married this whole time and fans think the actors hate each other

Percy and Al who prank set dad(Luke)

(Thank you to @everythingwasalreadypicked and @totallynotsomeone for your lovely contributions even if i didnt include them all, you can ofc add anything in the reblogs >:D)

Is This Seat Taken?

Rated X / 1452 words / Posted on AO3 / Tagging @today-in-fic

He’s in touch with the fact that it’s bordering on obsession. It’s all he thinks about, both during waking hours and in his dreams. He wants to taste her, drink her down, make her call his name with the distinct pitch of overwhelm in her voice. He wants to feel her quivering against his lips, feel her cunt strangle his tongue as he fucks her with it until she explodes. He wants her all over his face, running down his chin, juicy as a peach and twice as sweet. He’d deny his own orgasm for the rest of his life in pursuit of her delicious pussy suffocating him under the weight of her body. Autoerotic asphyxiation, indeed. 

When it’s hot out, he daydreams about the salted sweat he could lick off the seams of her legs. When it’s cold, he imagines warming his wind-whipped cheeks with the heat of her. Fresh from the shower, hot and humid from the gym, tangy and lived-in after a long day. No matter her state, he craves her. She doesn’t seem to mind. 

He finds her in his kitchen, her hair mussed and his undershirt falling halfway down her thighs as she picks through his cupboards in search of the makings for coffee. He watches from the doorway as she reaches for filters and the shirt rides up just enough to expose the fleshy edge of one of her ass cheeks. He was hard when he woke up, and he’s still hard now, growing harder by the second as his appetite is whetted by her mere presence. 

He lets her get the coffee going—just so she can enjoy a cup when he’s done with her—before he crosses the room and steps up behind her. His erection tents the front of his boxers, the shiny head threatening to sneak through the slit at the front, and he lets it press into her back as he reaches down and runs his hands up her bare thighs. 

“Oh!” she says as she startles, and then immediately relaxes. “You scared me,” she says on an exhale, leaning into him. 

“Sorry,” he grumbles, tucking his face into the crook of her neck and dropping wet kisses up to her ear. “Good morning.”

He bunches the shirt up in his fists, gathering it at her waist and exposing her naked pelvis. He can already taste her. Already smell her. Fuck the coffee, all he needs to wake up is a hit of her sweet little cunt. 

“Good morning,” she says sweetly, craning her neck back to kiss him. 

His hands are already between her legs, stroking her velvety soft lips. He wants to see her, hot pink against alabaster thighs. She looks as good as she tastes. 

He kisses her once more and then puts gentle pressure on her back, encouraging her to bend down and rest her elbows on the counter top. She trusts him so completely she does it without question, though she does throw him a curious glance over her shoulder. Mulder drops to his knees and touches the insides of her thighs, and she takes one step out with each foot and arches her back, exposing herself to him under his fluorescent kitchen lights. 

He lets out a low whine and strokes himself as he looks her over. She’s so pretty, so perfectly Scully, even between her legs. The little ginger hairs on her outer lips and dappled around her asshole remind him of sprinkles, making her his most delicious cupcake. Her pussy lips flare out like flower petals and she’s blooming right before his eyes, reddening and swelling, anticipating what she knows he can do to her. 

His visual senses finally sated, he leans forward and takes his first taste, flashing his tongue over her asshole. She sucks in a little breath and he feels her skin pucker, and suddenly his need is so overwhelming his head spins. He ducks down and threads his head and shoulders between her open legs, then turns around and sits against the lower cabinets beneath her. With his hands on her ass cheeks, he tugs until she steps forward, then stuffs his face into her cunt, groaning as he pushes his tongue inside her and tastes her gathering wetness. 

It’s a little awkward at first as she tries to distribute some of her weight to her arms braced against the counter. Slowly, she sinks into him until the only function of the counter is to help her keep her balance. His nose is buried in her pubic hair, his lower jaw a resting place for her asshole, and every inch of his face between is covered in her hot, wet snatch. He sucks, licks, rubs her with his lips and his tongue and his teeth. He devours her, and even around the mufflers of her thighs he can hear her gasping for air above him. She tenses and begins to throb, and a hot rush pours down his chin and chest, wetting his tee shirt. God, he wants more. He reaches around to finger her asshole and she buckles, her weight compressing the vertebrate in his neck and sealing her cunt more tightly around his mouth. He can hardly breathe, and he doesn’t care. He’ll just have to sprout gills so he can live under her water. 

“Oh, no,” she whines, then gushes again, and he hears the wet splash as it hits the floor. “I’m making a mess,” she confesses in the sweetest, most innocent voice.

He growls and sucks hard on her clit, and she does it again. He’d tell her how much he loves her messes, how he smells his damp sheets after she leaves just to get a hit of her. But his mouth is currently full, and he’s not ready to be done yet. 

He shifts down and snakes his tongue as far up her cunt as he can reach. He grinds his face against her, tongue fucking her and nuzzling her clit with his nose. 

“Oh my god,” she whimpers, fisting his hair in one of her hands. “Oh please, oh please, oh please.”

He loves how she begs him, even when he’s already fully applying himself. He wants her to enjoy this just as much as he does. He wants to make her feel so good, so good after all she’s been through. She deserves it. 

“I’m coming,” she announces, her body slowly curling in half as her muscles succumb to pleasure. 

He holds her up, bears the entirety of her weight with his face and neck as she throbs against his lips and around his tongue. Enervated, she slowly lifts one leg off his shoulder and then the other before she slides down his front and lands in his lap, collapsing against his chest with a sigh. After a minute, she begins to paw at the front of his boxers and he sucks in a ragged breath when her fingers collide with his achingly hard cock. 

“Don’t worry about that, just relax,” he tells her, batting her hand away. 

She sits up, leveling him with a deliciously lust-drunk attempt at a glare, then peels his shirt off over her head, leaving her nude. 

“I’ll do exactly as I please,” she says sternly, already pulling him free. 

He groans as she lifts her hips and scoots forward, then sinks her slippery cunt down on him. 

“Oh fuck,” he hisses, his hands flying to her breasts. 

“Oh god,” she says in chorus, and he feels her clench around him, making his head spin. “You think this is just for you, Mulder?” she asks coyly, then begins to shift her hips forward and back. “Do you know how good you feel?”

His head falls back against the cabinet with a thwack. 

“No way in hell it’s as good as you feel,” he denies, already seeing white spots behind his eyelids. 

She grabs his face and pulls it towards her, kissing him soundly as she rides. 

“Maybe—” she suggests breathlessly, bouncing in his lap. “Maybe we just feel really good together.”

“Fuck I’m gonna come,” he mumbles against her lips. 

Before the words finish leaving his mouth she is coming right along with him, squeezing every drop of cum out of his cock, and the entire world is reduced to his wet kitchen floor and her breathy moans. 

As soon as it’s over, he’s thinking about it again. The weight of her on his chin, the rush of her running down his neck, the perfect pearl of her clit between his teeth. He’s in touch with the fact that it’s bordering on obsession. But they just feel so good together, who could possibly blame him?

okay I think we should take inventory of what we learned about Marius's house.

In fact, the impression was one of comfortable messiness.

(i think the tiktok kids started calling ADHD clutter clustering or something LMAO marius de romanus cluster girlie i guess. thanks i hate it)

Here's some stuff that Marius had on his island!!!!!!!

stone benches

a lighted oil lamp on a stand

a pair of heavy wooden doors

a sarcophagus with a plain lid, cleanly fashioned out of diorite

The lid plated in iron and contained

a golden mask, its features carefully molded, attached to a hood made up of layered plates of hammered gold.

a pair of leather gloves covered completely in tinier more delicate gold plates like scales.

a large folded blanket of the softest red wool with one side sewn with larger gold plates

Magnificent Grecian urns on pedestals in the corridors

great bronze statues from the Orient

exquisite plants at every window and terrace open to the sky.

Gorgeous rugs from India, Persia, China c

giant stuffed beasts mounted in lifelike attitudes-

--the brown bear,

--the lion,

--the tiger,

--even the elephant standing in his own immense chamber,

--lizards as big as dragons,

--birds of prey clutching dried branches made to look like the limbs of real trees.

brilliantly colored murals covering every surface from floor to ceiling

a dark vibrant painting of the sunburnt Arabian desert complete with an exquisitely detailed caravan of camels and turbaned merchants moving over the sand

a jungle warming with delicately rendered tropical blossoms, vines, carefully drawn leaves

creatures everywhere in the texture of the jungle-

--insects,

--birds,

--worms in the soil-

too many monkeys in the jungle,

too many bugs crawling on the leaves.

thousands of tiny insects in one painting of a summer sky.

a large gallery walled on either side by painted men and women staring at me

Figures from all ages these were-

--bedouins,

--Egyptians,

--Greeks and Romans,

--knights in armor,

--peasants

--kings

--queens.

--Renaissance people in doublets and leggings,

--the Sun King with his massive mane of curls,

--people of our own age.

droplets of water clinging to a cape,

the cut on the side of a face,

the spider half-crushed beneath a polished leather boot.

a library, blazing with light.

Walls and walls of books and

rolled manuscripts,

giant glistening world globes in their wooden cradles,

busts of the ancient Greek gods and goddesses,

great sprawling maps.

Newspapers in all languages lay in stacks on tables.

Fossils,

mummified hands,

exotic shells.

bouquets of dried flowers,

figurines and fragments of old sculpture,

alabaster jars covered with Egyptian hieroglyphs.

comfortable chairs with footstools,

Writers Guild Presents - Tethered - Ch 8 - The Bandstand

Written by NegotiationReal6508 on our subreddit!

Chapter 8 of work in progress

TW/CW: Angst, discussion of attempted suicide, implied character death, homophobia, discussion of conversion treatment

Summary:

Crowley wakes up in a mental hospital with no memory of how he got there. Without his demonic powers, neither the doctors, nor the people who claim to be his family will believe he is who he says he is. With the evidence against him mounting, his only lifeline to the real world is a cryptic note left by an unseen messenger. The longer he stays in this hospital, the harder it becomes to recall for sure, is Crowley really a demon of Hell? Or has his entire existence been nothing more than a delusion conjured by a grieving mind?

Excerpt:

Their legs hung lazily over the edge of the bandstand. They were still in their formal wear from their prom, although some pieces had been discarded in favour of comfort. Crowley had forsaken his shoes and tie, but kept his jacket on for warmth. Aziraphale’s jacket hung neatly over the railing. He still wore his waistcoat and bowtie, but he had rolled his sleeves up to his elbows, exposing his forearms.

Ever since puberty, Aziraphale had only gotten more and more beautiful. With his pale skin and perfect blonde curls, he was like an alabaster sculpture of Eros. He wasn't an athlete, but hauling books around the library at his after-school job had rounded out his soft, skinny-boy physique with muscle tone that was becoming more and more difficult for Crowley to ignore.

It was his forearms that Crowley liked. Whenever Aziraphale had the audacity to wear short sleeves, Crowley would imagine running his fingers reverently over the soft hair that graced his arms and the backs of his hands. Outwardly, Crowley would pinch a few strands and say something derisive about peach fuzz. If Aziraphale had pigtails, Crowley probably would have yanked on them and run away. You know... flirting.

Crowley was fixated on Aziraphale’s forearm butting up against his own as they leaned forward with their hands on the edge of the platform.
