Kinktober prompt 16: aftercare / tattoos

After getting way too enthusiastic about Steve's new tattoo, Eddie is taking care of him with slow devotion

can i be honest to the obsessive skincare girls. you look the same. nothing is happening

[marzipanandminutiae]

I am generally very “live and let live“ about these things on an individual basis, and the furthest thing from anti-femininity. I literally don’t own pants, nor do I ever intend to, for example. I respect that some women prefer to wear make up for whatever reason, and that deciding whether you do it for yourself or because of patriarchal beauty standards is a very case-by-case thing. Some people do the soul-searching and come out the other end with the knowledge that they ARE doing it for themselves!

But… Reading Internet discourse about whether women should have to wear make up at work is making me want to bite and tear and rend

“it makes you look more polished! It makes you look more put together! It looks like you’re taking care of yourself and taking your job seriously!“ WHY. Please explain to me WHY women look like we ~aren’t taking care of ourselves~ if we don’t slap extra goop on our faces every morning. Give me a succinct reason that makes sense and doesn’t rely on the assumption that make up is somehow a natural state of womankind

And then explain why the same thing doesn’t hold true for men

(TERFS get lost)

How to Improve the Moisture of Your Skin

How to Improve the Moisture of Your Skin

Are you wondering why your skin’s always dry and flaky? Perhaps your skin isn’t giving you too many problems, but you want to get back the youthful glow you had when you were younger. It’s understandable to worry about the skin, as it’s the body’s largest organ. It needs plenty of care and attention if you want to keep your skin healthy and vibrant. (more…)

Caretaking with slight insults, for flavor

idk if I’ve posted about this before but I seriously headcanon that Ghost has a twelve-step skincare regimen

it includes moisturizer, witch hazel, scar gel, burn cream, etc and he sticks to it religiously when he can

it’s not that he is particularly enthused about self care or even skin care in general, but it keeps his eye black from creasing, his scars from aching, and his face from breaking out with acne under his mask

when the 141 pulls off their Ghost Team balaclavas in Las Almas, he nearly doubles over in laughter at their messed up eye black, fabric creases pressed into their dry skin, and pimples already starting to pop up

after they get back from Chicago, all three of them find a small bag with moisturizer, face cleanser, and acne cream outside of their barracks and none of them even have to ask who it came from

Logan's skin renews itself at a rapid speed due to his healing factor, meaning shedding old skin cells much faster. This results in him having a bad case of dandruff. You can't see it but when he runs his hands through his hair it's fucking snowing! No shampoo is helping so every evening Wade has to spend ages brushing the flakes out of his hair for some release but Wade loves it and will give him massages too and scalp scratches

More tame and domestic CRCB thought since it lives rent-free in my mind:

Price has to REALLY watch Omega when they take her to the store, especially if she veers towards the skincare section. He made the mistake once of letting her just throw shit in the cart, thinking it was a lot, but maybe she's really intense about skincare. Whatever.

Until he finds her smearing a peel-off mask over his nose because he has blackheads. She's on his lap, holding his face as tight as she can so he can't look away.

Soap and Gaz probably seek her out. Gaz, I imagine, probably takes pretty good care of his own face. Has his own skincare. Soap uses a bar of hand soap and cold water, but he runs to her like a puppy once a week just to have his face massaged with whatever she deems necessary.

Ghost gets off easy. Until he starts taking off his mask. Then she's chasing him with makeup remover and cotton pads to scrub off the eyeblack that he sleeps in because 'it'll rub off eventually anyway.'

I mean, Price probably has to watch the reader whenever they go to a store period 😂 girl be loading up the cart with lots of things.

Oh but absolutely. The reader and Kyle are double teaming the skincare of the other three. Jumping them when they least expect it and trying to get them to just use a moisturizer 😭

Johnny so likes the facial part. He likes to be pampered by someone else, but doing it himself?? Nah. No thank you.

The reader and Kyle have a full breakdown whenever Simon takes off the mask. Man probably has acne and permanently stained eyelids from the eyeblack he never washes off. Kyle holds him down while the reader sits on him and aggressively cleanses his skin and puts a mask on him 😂 it becomes a regular thing after that.

A while ago I asked @jazzfordshire which, out of all her fics, she would like to see art for, and the answer was:

The Touched Heart Madly Stirs

The Ancient Greece AU

So here it is! A scene from chapter 3, and a huge thank you for all of the work that you have freely shared with us. Your stories were what drew me into the SC fandom-- they have always been an absolute joy to read.

Nothing gets a girl going faster than making an hour by hour schedule of her day.

Retwist I did yesterday!

[dreamlogic]

i told my physical therapist today about how i plan to get a xenomorph tattooed on my hip to highlight my hysterectomy scar, bc when i still had my reproductive organs i likened period cramps etc to having a live-in chestburster, then after surgery the complications that stupid lil ½" bastard scar gave me made it feel like i still had an alien parasite ravaging my innards... so the tattoo will be an homage to all it took to overcome that long painful history, as well as a way to honor my beloved monster wife.

then she shared a story about a close friend of hers who found out she had a tumor the size of a clementine that had been growing in her brain since childhood. it was safely removed & she's fine now, and she got a tattoo of a clementine slice behind her ear near where the tumor had been as a fun little inside joke with herself.

and i think about the long history of medicinal tattooing, and of people using ink to either cover or accentuate past wounds ranging from self harm to cancer to gender transition and everything in between and i just. i love how humans tell stories with our bodies. i love that we get to decorate the shapes that house our souls to reflect our experiences and celebrate our survival and carry what we find beautiful with us for life.

saiki's gloves are so thin that realistically he can probably feel textures pretty well, tho there's always gonna be a degree of dulling when you have smth on your hand. that aside if i want to angst abt saiki not being able to really truly touch things i will

anyway isn't it so fucked up that one of the only times kusuo gets to properly feel things is when the heat of the volcano is literally burning his gloves off his hands
