#THAT I CANT ARTICULATE

"But...I understood then that he was extremely close to me at such a deep level...

'What is important?

'What are we willing to do to protect it?'

That is why, after all was said and done, I wanted to share my tomorrows with him.

Don't you agree, Wolfwood?"

yes trans people can be hot and sexy and cute but most importantly they're normal. yes fat people can be hot and sexy and cute but most importantly they're normal.

aziraphale insisting on driving the bentley truly is him catching up to crowley and essentially going 'you no longer go too fast for me-- actually, let me take the wheel'

Following up to my Haurchefant post (and continuing this rabbit hole I've fallen down), Zenos is the exact opposite.

Haurchefant sees you as a hero regardless of anything you may have done. He sees all the good in you.

Zenos sees all the "bad". He sees the parts of you that enjoy battle. The parts of you that kind of like the chaos. He sees the adventurer inside of you that's constantly pushing forward, hungry for new challenges even after the last ones threatened to destroy you and everyone you love.

Unlike Haurchefant he doesn't care for the good in you. He doesn't care if your role is hero or villain. But like Haurchefant, his interest and respect in you has absolutely nothing to do with your accomplishments or how you can serve a greater cause. Zenos' interest is purely in you.

Haurchefant and Zenos might be the only two who see you not as the Warrior of Light, but as the person you are, for better or worse.

And they BOTH die. The two people who saw past your title and to the core of your being leave you behind. And that's why I think, while Zenos was selfish, childish, and dangerous, it probably really hurt the WoL to lose him too.

kaveh whimpering.... kaveh housewife ..... is on the brain

he's so so pretty, welcoming you home with a little smile while taking your coat and offering to give you a massage after your hard day at work (even though he himself could probably use it even more ;;)

so willing to serve, so willing to do whatever you want, fulfilling you just brings him so much joy and pleasure. even so, you notice him getting squirmy and choose to ignore it until he can't bear it anymore, going about your post work routine until he finally wraps his arms around your waist and nudges his hips against your side

when he gets that obvious, when he gently bumps your side and looks up at you with those pleading eyes, his lip tugged between his teeth and tears practically shining in his eyes, you decide he's had enough

bend him over your knee, knead on his ass while he pants and tries to hump against your leg. run your fingers along his skin, pulling down his pants just enough to give him a light smack, the noise he makes at the contact dragging you into doing even more. have him count while you periodically push the vibrator you forced him to keep in all day even deeper, threatening to turn it up if he can't count each spank right. he's cumming in his pants before you can even say a word, and he instantly knows that was the wrong move

yank the vibe out, shove him on the bed, force him to arch his pretty back and pull his cute ass into the air so you can pound him with your strap. he's sobbing, overstimulated from his first orgasm, his tears soaking into the pillow he's grasped onto. grab him by the back of the neck, push him into the pillow so he has to gasp for air between thrusts, watch him cry while he practically tears at the pillowcase, another orgasm hitting him before he can even fully process your strap pounding his prostate dead on

he'll keep going as long as you want to, but don't get him wrong -- he's totally enjoying it too. it'd be too embarrassing to say to your face, so he'll settle with keeping his pressed down by your cruel hands, getting pounded like there's no tomorrow til he finally can't keep his hips upright any longer.

be sure to treat him gently after for being so good, though... he's probably halfway asleep already, but he'll get upset if you leave his side after making him feel so good. comb your fingers through his hair, kiss away his tears, hold him in your arms until he drifts off... you can clean up later

I will say this once because I'm tired of seeing stupid discourse: anti-transmasculinity is not about being treated bad because we clock as men, it's about being treated as stupid little girls because transphobes think we've been tricked into this.

It's kind of the opposite of transmisogyny- instead of fear and revulsion, it's constant condescension, the implications that we've been whisked away from femininity by scary bad guys, that we're going to cause 'irreparable damage' because we don't know what's best for ourselves, somehow. People fearmonger a lot about the "ugliness" of transfem people, but for transmasc people that 'ugliness' is used as a warning- you'll look like THIS! You'll go BALD! Your top surgery scars will leave you MUTILATED! A lot of aesthetic concerns. Worry about our 'beauty'. Because it comes from that same stupid reactionary 'we gotta SAVE the WOMEN' shit, but this time they have to save them from getting 'stolen away', as if we're being seduced or pressured into this. As if we can't make our own decisions.

For TERFS specifically, they're losing one of their own. We're 'gender traitors', willingly aligning ourselves with the half of the population they consider unilaterally dangerous and evil.

We aren't REALLY trans, we just want the benefits that men get. You don't actually want to transition, you're just trying to avoid misogyny.

You aren't actually a man, you're just a self-loathing lesbian.

Why can't you just be a butch girl? Why can't you just be a tomboy?

Why can't you just be something that I don't think is icky?

Anyway. Like all things, it boils down to misogyny. Women stupid and gentle, dont know what best for them, evil men trick into taking man juice, must save because lady stupid and dont know what best for them (having babies and being Feminine).

Theres like. Obviously more to this but I'm just a Transmasc Rando explaining this from my perspective, and I'm not the best with words. Anyone is free to hop in and add on to this

Just finished ch 23 in my Nona reread and i think Ianthe dismissing Blood Of Eden as "terrorists" is especially jarring because of the evolution of how BOE is presented in the text

like first in GtN, Gideon never mentions who or what she could be fighting if she had succeeded in her dreams of joining the Cohort. she wants to be part of the "invasion force on whatever", and her fantasies of violence are exclusively oriented around perceived personal freedom and making Harrow feel bad

And then in HtN, Blood of Eden is finally named as the Empire's enemy, but they're very specifically never called "terrorists". they're "insurgents" per both John and Judith, which not only has a wholly different definition (revolutionaries!) it's also an interesting intentional choice on the part of the *writing*. It would make in-universe character sense for Cohort Captain Judith Deuteros to call BOE "terrorists" in the personal notes she takes while prisoner, and it would make in-universe character sense for Emperor John Gaius to call them "terrorists" when he is explaining to Harrow that they are The Enemy. and i feel like it is narratively important that Blood of Eden is very intentionally *not* presented to us the readers with the kind of aggressive dehumanization/dismissal connotation combination that the word terrorist has.

and then like, obviously, the first BOE character we meet is a hot MILF with a gun. and sure she's trying to kill God, but Augustine and Mercymorn also try to kill God like 3 pages after we (properly) meet Wake so it's not like killing God is presented as a negative thing.

So going into NtN, I feel like the general impression of BOE is revolutionaries who hate the Empire and hot ladies with guns. which as far as impressions go is like, pretty positive, and that impression is only emphasized in the first 300 or so pages of the book. You have more hot women, you have more hot women with guns. There are factions of BOE that hate Our Protagonists more than the ones we meet, and there's infighting and hostages and burning suspected-necros in the park, but the BOE members we meet are explicitly sympathetic to the characters that we the audience care about, so the "scarier" parts of BOE are in many ways de-emphasized to the reader. We're *also* given an up-close-and-personal view of how bad it is for the people living under the Nine Houses' rule/resettlement via Hot Sauce and the gang, which further solidifies BOE as *at least* bordering on (if not outright!) "someone to root for", even for resistant readers.

and then Ianthe shows up and calls them terrorists and it feels a bit like a slap to the face. It serves to emphasize and perhaps consolidate what has been building for the series, which is essencially that the protagonists of the previous books are on the wrong side. Necromancy is on the wrong side. the Empire is doing bad fucking things and they are calling the revolutionaries who resist them "terrorists" as a way to delegitamize their resistance and dissuade support, something that no longer works on the *reader* because of the way Tamsyn Muir has hansel-and-gretled the fuck out of that story arc. send post.
