#Quick thought

[runa-falls]

imagine convincing steven to let you suck his dick for 'practice' so you'll know how to do it when you get a boyfriend. but the whole time, the only boyfriend you want is him.

suddenly, he's thinking about you 24/7, craving your messy mouth and the painful dig of your nails against his thigh when he pushes in too much. he falls in love with the way you take care of him, how you can go from eagerly swallowing him down to cooing soft praises when he's coming down from his high.

so when he's reminded of why you're really doing this, he becomes a tad bit possessive. he holds you closer, kisses you harder, and keeps you in his arms a little longer. in his mind, he should be the only one tugging at your hair and staring down at your glistening eyes as he drives himself against your face again and again.

one day, he finally says it.

your lips are still plump and red, the only evidence of the activities that you were doing just a handful of minutes ago. he fiddles with his hands as he watches you search around his flat for your things.

this is one of the few times he hasn't held you in his arms afterwards. he feels empty. alone. he wants to reach out, stop your frantic searching, and tug you onto his lap. he wants to nuzzle his face into the crook of your neck and breathe you in. he wants you to stay.

you said were meeting up with someone for lunch. you didn't specify who and you didn't seem like you wanted to. his heart dropped at the mention of someone else and there was only silence between the two of you. it was a piercing needle of reality popping his lovesick bubble.

you seemed disappointed by his silence, a slight frown pulling at the corners of your lips. you merely returned his silence and stood up to look for your shirt.

you're tying your shoes when he finally speaks up.

"don't go." you don't look up, but he knows you heard him because your hands are frozen above your shoes with your laces pinched between your fingers. "stay...here. with me."

you huff out a sigh, finally looking up with inquiring eyes.

"what are you saying, steven?"

"i don't want to do this anymore." you drop your laces and turn your body to face his. everything just spills from his lips, "i know you just wanted help to please your next partner, but i can't stand the idea of seeing you with anyone but myself."

"steven..." you stand up and walk over to the bed where he sits, carelessly leaving your one shoe untied. you rest a hand on his shoulder, urging him to meet your gaze. dark lashes frame his warm brown eyes. "there isn't anyone else."

he blinks as a dusting of pink rises to his cheeks, confused and a bit embarrassed. "...there isn't?"

"no."

"then who are you seeing for lunch?"

"there is no lunch." you confess, "it's selfish, but i just wanted you to tell me not to go..."

gentle fingers wrap around your wrist, "then don't."

"steven, i already told you, there is no lun--"

you yelp when you're abruptly pulled against him, your chest meeting his. "don't go. ever." his other hand cradles your jaw and pulls you in until your lips are nearly touching his. "stay with me." his voice lowers to a whisper, but you swear you can feel the vibrations flood through your body.

"ok."

Have you ever offered memories? Maybe an old picture found while cleaning up of a trip you enjoyed, a loved one, or simply yourself as a kid! Or perhaps an old drawing, or an object (book/toy and the like) which sparks nostalgia. If you seek to deepen your connection with a God, this is a wonderfully fulfilling ritual to engage in. If it’s an object you’re getting rid of, why not put it up on your altar for a day or two? Share the memory with your God/Gods, and tell them about it before you let it go!

Something that won't leave my head is in Remember them, does Odysseus just... leave Quick Thought? Independently?

Like before he addresses Polyphemus there is no Quick Thought sound and Athena does not sound like she's done talking at all. To me it really sounds like he decides to cut her off and go back. But like... How? He's famously just a man and it's not like time passes but Athena has no reason to let him out of her mind in that moment if she really does not want him to do this.

Idk thoughts? Cos I don't think this actually happened but I also kinda think this happened and the idea that Odysseus can do that intrigues me.

Headcanon that odysseus felt athenas presence (him getting pulled into quick thought for most of his life has trained him well. Even years later) and that's why he called out to her

When did Taishin grow up so fast?! I'm so proud of him. He is just so comfortable with Takara and so sure of his feelings for him now. He was giving him the reinsurance he needed because Takara is just too afraid of being like his mom and making the same mistakes she did.

I had such a good time watching this episode... If we forget about the inauspicious text message that will certainly cause problems next week.

Thinking of…

Toji with a brat…

You’ve been making smart remarks all day and just trying to get him to the tip of the iceberg. He notices your behavior and doesn’t say anything about it until one thing you said got to him. Now you’re stuck in doggy style with your hands behind your back and your hair being pulled.

He’s making intense eye contact with a cocky grin on his face. “It was you fucking wanted huh? This is what the needy brat wanted? To get fucked like the dirty slut you are mhmm?” He said still staring you down with the same smile. Tears rolled down your face as his dick slammed into your walls hitting that one spot you love. He pulled you closer towards, bringing his head closer to yours. “Y’know, you always look so pretty when I get to fuck this pussy how it needed to be.” You could barely understand the words coming out his mouth as you felt your orgasm come closer and closer with each deep stroke he took. He was so deep inside of you and going in hard.

Soon you felt his grip let go of your hair as his dick outta. “Nuh uh, only good girls get to cum. Until then, Imma tease the fuck outta you baby.”

Damn, is it just me or did Ed do a great job voicing Striker this episode?

Sure, I miss Norman’s performance but he’s probably busy with other stuff and I understand. Striker’s voice was slightly deeper than last time, but overall it didn’t lose what made him badass and “sexy” (according to Stolas).

Bravo, Bosco, bravo! 👏

So something that always disappointed me in the series was the reveal that Queen Oasis was actually killed by scavengers. Not even with something animus-touched or careful planning, it was entirely unintentional.

In the past (pre-Dragonslayer), my personal theory about this was that somehow Blister had led Oasis to her death because she knew beating her in a fight wasn't a viable option. Maybe she provided the scavengers with an animus-touched treasure that would enable them to kill her. Maybe she managed to ambush/kill Oasis herself and frame the scavengers.

I still prefer this outcome, and I think it would serve as an example of Blister being clever and manipulative.

If Mirage had his g1 personality in ROTB wouldn't his relationship with Noah just be another Primeverse Arcee and Jack sorta thing all over again, no?

That's just my thought.

What do you think would Dazai see if he ever looks into the Mirror of Erised, hm?

[broomsick]

I pray for Yngvi-Freyr, Lord of harmony and joy, and Týr, Lord of compromise and justice, to cast their gaze upon those who suffer and grant them peace at last. These are times difficult beyond words, but the oppressed always win in the end.

Why does Courtney remain on Alejandro’s side in WT, even after her elimination?

Bridgette and Leshawna, the other two who appear as puppets in ‘This Is How We Will End It’ resent Alejandro after the cause of their eliminations. So does everyone else.

Except for Courtney, who even after KNOWING of Alejandro’s schemes, and that he used her, STILL, at her own free will, sides with him.

Now yes Lindsay sides with him too, but 1) She would likely want to be on the non-Heather side anyway 2) She was one of the few people Alejandro has not caused the elimination of, so she doesn’t hold beef against him.

So why does Courtney stay?

It has to do with her desperate need of control.

Courtney has always controlled people of tried to, to benefit herself. In that sense she relates to Alejandro and sees him as just and the good guy. Especially compared to Heather.

In Courtney’s mind, this behavior is right, and she is NEVER to blame for the bad stuff that happens to her.

But ironically it’s this behavior that she pushes away opportunities for relationships.

She even says so in an Action confessional, telling a story about how a classmate walked out on her and yet she won anyway:

“You want something done, you do it yourself.”

The only characters she ever considers friends throughout the WHOLE SHOW are Duncan and Gwen. Even then, even though she cared about them, (emphasis on the past tense in this sentence) she chose the win over them and used them.

When she dated Duncan, her goal was to change him into a male counterpart of her, and she considered the effort to be ‘love.’

I said it before, I do believe she genuinely loved Duncan in her mind, but that doesn’t excuse her actions, it just explains it.

Then even before the love triangle even happened, Courtney’s only concern of Gwen is whether or not she’d be risky competition to take to the finals. She even asks, “How do you think they’ll make us turn on each other?” Or something on the lines of that.

As though that is her only concern.

In that same episode where she asks this, she reveals her plans to change Duncan still, revealing she has learned nothing.

When writing a negative character arc, the character often doesn’t learn a lesson that makes them better.

In fact Courtney and Gwen’s friendship is solely circumstantial. They’re the only non-simps, non-crazy, non-Heather people on their team. So they have to work together and get along. Then in All Stars their friendships is basically: “We share the same awful ex boyfriend. Ha ha.”

But of course, in Courtney’s POV, she becomes the one who was always in the right.

Duncan and Gwen both betray her, PERSONALLY. Of course she’d be out for blood.

The only people she ever became friends with go behind her back and disregard her feelings.

This is another Britney Reed. It’s further proof that Courtney is far better off alone.

Only when she’s in control and the ONLY one in control, will there be peace in the world.

And in the end of her run on the show, it’s the only thing she cares about.

So why let Alejandro use her?

Well… she doesn’t.

If you really look into it, Courtney only helps Alejandro at her OWN WILL.

Unlike Bridgette and Leshawna, who only needed seduction, Courtney was already trying to kill Gwen and sabotage her team BEFORE Alejandro even tried to convince her.

In Episode 16, he tries to convince her only for HER to say she’s trying to do things herself.

She doesn’t need Alejandro to screw her over.

And actually, Alejandro does NOT even plan to ditch Courtney in episode 20. They vote Blaineley. It’s only proof in Courtney’s mind that Alejandro is not only her only ally who will listen to her, but also the definitive example of what a winner looks like.

So even after she loses, she thrusts the conversation of eliminated characters helping the finalists, so she can take matters into her own hands on how the game plays out.

This is HER being the one in control of the victor she deems best suited.

Looking into her character arc more, you learn more the more you think about it.

Do we think odysseus's thoughts are almost stuck in quick thought from how often Athena popped up into his head? Because I absolutely do

Quick thoughts about Takara's treasure (EP 11):

I always feel great when I'm rewarded with a spin off or a special episode. You got to see a universe with characters you learned to appreciate and you can dive into it for another time. It's so satisfying.

It was interesting to see the love between Takara and Taishin through the eyes of their observant fellow club member. She kinda represents the viewers and it adds another layer of perception.

Takara and Taishin's love is gentle and so subtle. Everything is in the way they speak to each other, the gentle care and gesture between them and the way they look at one another. I feel this episode shows us how their relation will continue to work because they find peace and happiness in small moments spent together.

I guess when you watch so many series of movies you get used to big grand gestures of love. However, in everyday life it's more simple just like Takara and Taishin's love. Even if the separation while Takara was hiking abroad wasn't easy, they found a way to make it and they are willing to stay together. It's nice and comforting.

I'm glad I could see them again one last time.

Quick thought. Is Coraline a darker version of Alice in Wonderland?

We have an animal leading the main character to the portal (in Coraline it was a mouse, in Alice a rabbit). Both worlds were abstract and colorful. We have creepy rulers of these lands. And the role of the main character is to escape from this place. Oh, and we have a cat.

MOVED TO @spectr3inl0ve

thinking about celebrity!reader taking kai anderson to the met gala as their plus one.

paparazzi lined either sides of the carpeted stairs, cameras flashing at you and your boyfriend and plus one, kai anderson. you gave the shouting camera-holding men and women a bright grin, slightly leaning into kai who merely gave a small smile and wave.

or sm shit like that.
