#The Passion According to G. H.

[thirdity]

Maybe all that happened to me was a slow and great dissolution? And that this is my struggle against that disintegration: trying now to give it a form? A form shapes the chaos, a form gives construction to the amorphous substance — the vision of an infinite piece of meat is the vision of the mad, but if I cut that meat into pieces and parcel them out over days and over hungers — then it would no longer be perdition and madness: it would once again be humanized life.

Clarice Lispector, The Passion According to G. H.

[sacredwhores]

Ingmar Bergman - Face to Face (1976)

"I am so afraid that I can only accept that I got lost if I imagine that someone is holding my hand."

Clarice Lispector, The Passion According to G. H.

[havewereadthis]

"Aficionados of South American fiction as well as literary critics will welcome this posthumous translation of a nearly plotless novel by one of Brazil's foremost writers. Availing herself of a single character, Lispector transforms a banal situation—a woman at home, alone—into an amphitheater for philosophical investigations. The first-person narration jousts with language, playfully but forcefully examining the ambiguous nature of words, with results ranging from the profound to the pretentious: "Prehuman divine life is a life of singeing nowness" or "The world interdepended with me, and I am not understanding what I say, never! never again shall I understand what I say. For how will I be able to speak without the word lying for me?" These linguistic games frame existential and experiential crises that Lispector savors and overcomes. Although this idiosyncratic novel will not have wider appeal, those with academic or markedly erudite tastes should find much to savour."

lewis hamilton nswf alphabet (part 1) (minors DNI!)

navigation taglist requests

A = Aftercare (what they’re like after sex) Lewis is incredibly attentive during aftercare, making sure you feel safe and loved. He cuddles you close, whispers soft reassurances, and checks in on how you’re feeling. Whether it’s getting water, wrapping you in a blanket, or running a warm bath, he ensures you’re completely cared for.

B = Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s) What he likes most about himself is his arms - covered in tattoos and strong, which can easily lift you up whenever he wants. He also loves it when you often grab him by the arm or hold him somewhere and lead him!

Lewis loves your neck! He adores that he can kiss it and knows your soft spots, where he always knows you'll react more than others. He also loves how intensely your perfume smells on it, which he loves to inhale.

C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically) He considers it a very intimate part, especially when you do it unprotected. He knows very well how much risk is involved, but with you he is able to overcome it. He loves to fill you with his liquid and watch it merge with yours to form one whole, which in a way is a proof of your love and boundless trust. However, after intercourse, it immediately helps you clean yourself so you don't feel dirty

D = Dirty secret (pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs) Lewis has a secret thrill for public teasing—brushing his hand over your thigh at a formal event or whispering something filthy in your ear when no one’s looking. The risk of being caught, combined with the fact that only the two of you know what’s happening, drives him wild. He loves the power of building anticipation, making you wait until you’re alone to finally give in to everything he’s been promising.

E = Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?) Lewis is quite an experienced man - he has had many female partners in his life before you, whether romantic or sexual, so he knows exactly what he is doing. He can perfectly caress a woman's body, focusing on certain areas that you immediately drift away from

F = Favorite position (this goes without saying) He loves it when you're on top. That's when he can read every expression on your face and see you dissolve in the delight of orgasm. It also gives him the opportunity to hold you tightly by the hips, moving inside you from below, which intensifies your sensations and gives you a completely different, even closer contact

G = Goofy (are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.) It depends - most often, however, he tries to throw in a joke, especially he did so at the very beginning, when you started making love with each other. Now it depends, he is not adversarial, he loves to laugh with you, however, he also cares about making it as pleasant as possible for you and it just naturally comes out that he is already less goofy, making it more tender

H = Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.) Lewis doesn't give a damn - he shaves himself when he wants and doesn't pay much attention to it, just as long as it would be hygienic. And towards you? Hmm, he's not the youngest, which is why he gets excited when you have your bottom trimmed in some patterns. Oh gosh, he loves it when you have one stripe there

I = Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect) Lewis is terribly thoughtful. He whispers sweet nothings or full of encouragement to you all the time. He doesn't forget to leave the softer ones - on your cheeks or forehead - in addition to hot and passionate kisses. He also hugs you very often and tries to make you feel one hundred percent comfortable. He is also very fond of silence, which, according to him, gives a great deal to intimacy

J = Jack off (masturbation headcanon) Lewis doesn’t do it often, but when he does, it’s usually because he’s missing you. He’s not one to rush through it—he takes his time, letting his imagination run wild with memories of your time together or fantasies about what he wants to do to you. If he’s away from you, he might even text or call, letting you know exactly what he’s thinking about, making it all the more intense. K = Kink (one or more of their kinks) Who would have thought that our seven-time world champion likes to feel the thrill of being covered? As soon as he has the opportunity to do so and you are willing, he very much enjoys making love to you in places where someone can cover you. It's not the greatest advantage for him to do all this - but in the end, he still cares about his privacy and yours. However, being in a public place, such as the beach or the jaccuzi on the roof of your apartment excites him. L = Location (favorite places to do the do) He loves places with a view - such as the balcony or high windows you have in your apartment. He also eats when you're on vacation and have an outdoor shower, oh, then he loves to take you there

M = Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going) He gets very excited when you know what you want yourself. When you whisper to him how you would like him to love you that night, or when you come yourself and even beg him for it. Or vice versa - when you tease him by pretending to be acutely unavailable. One word and he is already yours

A/N: part two will be here soon! (If anyone wants me to tag them - let me know in the comments). WELL - it's the first time when I'm writing for lewis

I encourage you to give requests in the Christmas marathon! click here :) and in my celebration to the first thousand!

please do not copy and translate my works! in case of any issues related to this - I invite you to discuss privately :)

Love your headcanons by the way

aw tysm!! it encourages me to keep writing him bc im not sure if ppl read fics abt him as much as i like to <33 and ofc, here's a sfw alphabet for now, i'll keep writing him in my other hcs too

𓆩♡𓆪 Horangi SFW Alphabet

𖧧 template here

A = Affection (How affectionate are they? How do they show affection?)

That man is loud about it, showy with it, flaunting you and loves intensely.

He doesn't necessarily tell you he's head over heels for you, but he loves showing you how much he loves touching you, caressing you, and wants to be draped all over you. Seriously, his hands never leave you.

B = Best friend (What would they be like as a best friend? How would the friendship start?)

He's the friend you know you're going to have the best time of your life with. Even if his idea of fun can be a little reckless and dangerous you know you can trust that nothing bad will ever happen.

C = Cuddles (Do they like to cuddle? How would they cuddle?)

He can't just lie there, he has to be touching you constantly. Smooth gliding his hands over you, following your body like a map. OOOH, I hc he has tattoos and adores it when you trace them, all over his thick, muscly arms and back. All in mutual, enjoyable silence.

D = Domestic (Do they want to settle down? How are they at cooking and cleaning?)

Yeah he does, I can't imagine him cooking much other than simple meals. Like you know, when he's hungry and you're busy so you can't cook for him. He can make the simplest things taste the best tho, like for some reason his eggs are so appetizing.

Y'all imagine him in an apron with nothing underneath but boxers and tell me you wouldn't breed that man.

E = Ending (If they had to break up with their partner, how would they do it?)

It would have to be on your own accord because it would take a LOT for him to get over you, he would never be able to forget you. He'd take the last chance he'd have memorizing you, the way you feel under his palm, the way you taste on his lips, the feelings you've ignited, the memories you've gifted him, and so on. Would truly try to make you stay and not leave, placing heated and passionate kisses just like the first time he'd been graced by your lips. Just know you'll receive constant phone calls and messages from him.

F = Fiance(e) (How do they feel about commitment? How quick would they want to get married?)

He's with you most of the time, and if being married means you'll live together with no restrictions then he's all in. Pulling out the ring soon.

G = Gentle (How gentle are they, both physically and emotionally?)

He loves aggressively but can be gentle when he pleases in small gestures on the day to day basis.

His emotions don't differ much from the regular, and on the rare chance that he's not teasing you he won't say a thing. Just sitting next to you and lifting you up to sit on his lap. More because he needs it, holding you when he's softer.

H = Hugs (Do they like hugs? How often do they do it? What are their hugs like?)

Sneaks up behind you and tickles your sides before hugging you. Sometimes he'll "pounce" on you and hold you tight in his arms, it makes you all giggly and squirming which makes him grin. Likes feeling as if he has you trapped within his arms, that nothing can take you away from him and you're secure with him.

I = I love you (How fast do they say the L-word?)

Maybe in a moment when he's lost in ecstasy, in an ardent moment. A feeling that just so happens to be aligned with someone he can be sincere towards, not something everyone has and doesn't happen twice in a lifetime. In short he says it while you're having sex. And he'll keep whispering it against your ear, murmuring it against your skin, breathing it against your lips.

J = Jealousy (How jealous do they get? What do they do when they’re jealous?)

Idk you tell me from this scenario:

He watches from a few paces back as someone talks to you, except he doesn't like their body language towards you. He comes closer to stand behind you, eyeing the other person suspiciously, and just rolling his eyes and sighing exasperatedly. Visibly in a bad mood which usually scares off the other person.

Yeah, he can be quite possessive (not in a toxic way). Let me explain, he likes calling you his but not in an object is mine kind of way, instead you're his for only him to give you that special love of care no one else could give, his to tend to.

K = Kisses (What are their kisses like? Where do they like to kiss you? Where do they like to be kissed?)

When he has you enveloped in a hug from behind, he'll start placing small kisses on your nape until his lips are barely parting from your skin and he's moved down to your shoulders, keeping his mouth so close as he murmurs into your skin.

Once he captures your mouth in a kiss, it'll be a while before you can catch your breath as your chest heaves. Longing to feel your lips on his as he desperately kisses you that he almost merges with you. Holding you closely, encasing your body against a couch, wall or whatever as he leans over you, breath caressing your lips for a mere moment as his eyes connect with yours. He's observing you with passion burning in his eyes, both of you watching one another trying not to be the first to give in.

L = Little ones (How are they around children?)

He likes children enough to ruffle his friend's kid hair playfully, maybe calm a crying baby at a grocery store, spoiling a niece/nephew or cousin he's babysitting.

M = Morning (How are mornings spent with them?)

Won't let you out of bed until he's kissed you, held you, felt you. So rushed mornings are a no for him, he greatly dislikes them. The type to set the alarm earlier than when he has to get up just to enjoy having you next to him. Knows when you wake up from subtle body signs, a change in your breathing rhythm, feeling as you burrow closer into him, your hands wrapping around his torso seeking that comfort as he relishes in it.

N = Night (How are nights spent with them?)

Night is the only time he can unwind and catch up on some much needed rest. Sometimes you joke and call him and old man for his remedies but you end up helping him relieve his back or knee pain, loosen his knotted muscles, or massage him after he's gone hard on a work out.

O = Open (When would they start revealing things about themselves? Do they say everything all at once or wait a while to reveal things slowly?)

Maybe when he knows the probability of marriage is around the corner. He starts getting pretty serious because he'll want you to know his faults before your relationship deepens. Things are revealed as you go, he wouldn't drop a bomb on you either.

P = Patience (How easily angered are they?)

It's pretty hard for you to actually anger him, most of the time when you're nagging at him he'll just piss you off more by having a smug grin or smirk on his face. Most you'll do is annoy him at which he feels the need to annoy you more when getting back at you. He avoids giving you looks but will always have a bothersome look in his eyes, sighing loud enough to irritate you and giving you smart comebacks to any question you direct at him.

Q = Quizzes (How much would they remember about you? Do they remember every little detail you mention in passing, or do they kind of forget everything?)

I'm sorry but I feel like he tends to be forgetful about some things. Like on the first date he makes such a conscious effort to remember which flowers you like best, what food you prefer and such that on the way back home he's repeating these things over and over again so he won't forget.

R = Remember (What is their favorite moment in your relationship?)

This one date that went kinda wrong because the car broke down on a backroad with barely any cars or people to come by. It was late at night too, but you both sat on the hood of the car, gazing at the starry night sky and just talking. The ambience felt so different, there was no logic in the words you exchanged as you talked the night away yet you were on the same wavelength. It was hours before someone passed by and were able to provide transportation but neither of you had taken notice of the time that had passed.

S = Security (How protective are they? How would they protect you? How would they like to be protected?)

He don't keep up with his workouts for nothing.

Although you have surprised him before by defending yourself, which he commended you for.

T = Try (How much effort would they put into dates, anniversaries, gifts, everyday tasks?)

The effort he may not always put into everyday tasks goes into anniversary and dates. Ofc, he tries to but it is forgettable when it's day to day stuff.

U = Ugly (What would be some bad habits of theirs?)

He's left behind his gambling habits and tries to keep away from it. Yet, he still resorts to bad coping mechanisms, usually tied to his impulsiveness.

V = Vanity (How concerned are they with their looks?)

The average ig. He's neglected his skin before but thanks to the rise in skincare for guys he's got a simple routine that you help him keep up with.

W = Whole (Would they feel incomplete without you?)

Literally and figuratively. Physically and emotionally.

Cannot run an errand without you, not that he would ever admit it though. Your presence is the only remedy he needs.

X = Xtra (A random headcanon for them.)

He's into motorcycles. As a teen, instead of his first vehicle being a car it was a motorcycle. He used to spend a lot of time with groups of motorcyclists when he wanted to occupy his mind. After settling down, he remembered his first motorcycle he had to part with when he joined the military and decided to purchase one of the same model to keep beside the newer one in the garage.

Y = Yuck (What are some things they wouldn’t like, either in general or in a partner?)

Trying to hold him back or tell him to 'slow down' on things he wants to have fun on. Like he needs his adrenaline rush and although his decisions may seem careless he's made sure the consequences aren't too dire. He doesn't see himself getting along with a boring person or a buzzkill.

Z = Zzz (What is a sleep habits of theirs?)

Will not go to sleep if you're not in bed with him. Don't try to stay up late and tell him to not stay up waiting for you, that's unacceptable to him. He could try but he feels as if he needs something to hold, feels as if his chest is concave from where your head should be resting on right now. He can only get up and cling to you like a toddler except he's bigger than you and now you can't do anything.

[sprunkimortality]

What do every Sprunki think of Gray?

Oren: "He's chill, bro. He's got good taste in music." Raddy: "Eh. He keeps out of my space and I keep out of his." Clukr: "According to my observations, Gray is a rather stoic individual. His lack of physical expression betrays his ability to feel emotions, and he can be quite hard to read at times. I can only make guesses as to how he feels based on context clues." Fun Bot: "Oh, Gray! He requests interesting songs from his favorite bands! It's always a new experience when he comes up to ask me to play something!" Vineria: "We're at similar wavelengths. Our auras blend well."

Brud: "Gray? Me like Gray! Gray is friend!" Garnold: "Gotta say, the kid's got interesting artistic interpretations of robotics. I didn't even know what divine machinery was until I heard him go through a whole rant about it! He's a cool one, I'll tell you that." OWAKCX: "G- Gray…oh, well, he- …h-he doesn't really…um…w- we don't…talk that much, you know? Hoohoo-! S- So, I, I- I don't know much about him, eh…e-except the fact that h- he wears the same shirt every day, hoho…" Sky: "Gray is so cool! He's got edgy makeup, edgy clothes, edgy music, everything's edgy! I want to be cool like him!"

Mr. Sun: "Ah, our very own Neutral Sprunki! There's a charm to his poker face that only he can pull off!" Durple: "Ahaha! You speak of my deadpanned companion? I've known him since we were Sprunklings! We were both losers without friends or anyone to chitter with at lunch, you see. Except I, in my ever-present radiance, was spared by the hells of torment he had to go through during those highschool years! That's not to say I condone it, no no no. I am HIGHLY against treating our very own emo boy with such exclusionism!" Mr. Tree: "I have been with him for every rest he takes every day in the afternoon. He brings peace to this bright and colorful town." Simon: "Well gee, Gray's one of my greatest friends! He's responsible and he always knows what to do in even the scariest situations! Don't tell him this, but…he's like a big brother to me! Yeah, we're the same age and unrelated but I don't care! He's big bro Gray to me!" Tunner: "Th' lad's in his own lil' world sometimes. He's a good kid. Never gets into any sorta trouble. Don't got a clue about the things he rambles on about sometimes, but I ain't gon' stop 'im whenever he does that. It's his passion."

Mr. Fun Computer: "He may not look like it, but he knows how to have fun in his own way! He visits me a lot! Though, he usually doesn't use my search engine or anything, like everyone else would. He just likes to come by and have conversations with me. It's nice!" Wenda: "So, like, big backstory dump, but…I actually hated Gray's guts. I dunno why. I was an evil kid! Like, so evil. I shoved him in the hallway and called him dumb and fat and whatever. Real talk, I was so mean to him. So like, him forigivng me was like, SUPER surprising. Like, what do you mean you forgive me?? Sure I regretted it and I apologized to his face but I didn't think he'd actually be, like, cool with me now! Anywayy. We're buddies now. We hang out and all that, soooo yeah. Happy ending! I hope." Pinki: "Gray is such a sweetheart! He helps me out at the bakery sometimes, even though he doesn't like having to deal with cooking oil…I really appreciate it whenever he comes by to help!" Jevin: "Within that anti-expression he wears, Gray is a Sprunki with passions to share."

Black: "He's not too bad, I suppose." Saves: "Sorry, who is…? Ah, yes! The horned one with the dirty shirt…ah, I remember now. Gray…he's so kind and generous. He is the same one who visits me every weekend, isn't he? Yes…he helps around the house. We tell stories to each other. He's precious." Ciqu: "He abides. I have no strong opinion of him." Sprinkles: "Heehee! Gray is fun! He takes care of me and Sky sometimes! He's like a big brother, but he doesn't have any little siblings…which is a bit sad, because he's fun as a brother!" Calvin: "Gray is super cool. And also fun to play pranks on! He doesn't get mad, so it's a little funny!" (edit 12/8/24: X FORGOT CIQU...XM SO SORRY MR POLICEMAN....)

NSFW alphabet no.3 - Xavier Calcazar

Xavier was suggested by a reader who wanted to remain Anonymous!

A = Aftercare (what they’re like after sex)

He’s caring enough, but not too overly so because Xavier is a man who knows precisely what he’s doing and how it’s affecting his partner. He will tease you though, saying things like “Couldn’t take it as well as you thought?” or “Can’t believe that was enough to make you come undone.” but all while making sure that you’re comfortable and have leisure of time to recover.

B = Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)

Shoulders and neck are the things that will draw Xavier’s attention the most. Kissing, biting even and if you show up wearing something that shows off these two things, he might have a hard time concentrating on whatever else he might be doing, either reading some reports or attending a social function. In private, the Inquisitor will encourage you to wear his shirts because they slip so beautifully off your shoulders. On himself he likes his chest and finds deep delight when you give many kisses to the area or just simply stroke your palms over it.

C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically)

Xavier is not the type of man who will use a condom. If he’s fucking you – then he is already sure that he doesn’t have to worry about protection or anything else. To him – creampies are the God-Emperor’s will and he always tries to make sure that his seed is not wasted by pulling out. This is not about breeding or making children at all, but more about simply not restricting himself. And if you don’t enjoy swallowing just yet, he will make sure that you do eventually.

D = Dirty secret (pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)

If he had any less self-control, the mere scent of your arousal would make him come, but he’s absolutely not going to admit it.

E = Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?)

Decently experienced, but nothing too crazy. He knows how to fuck and how to fuck good, but the man has like three main poses that he enjoys. Xavier’s very much initiating when he has the time for it, being a very busy man otherwise, so even if he’s not the most experimenting one, you will still be thoroughly and well fucked.

F = Favorite position (this goes without saying)

Missionary or from the back (standing or doggy). With missionary he can see you unravel, but from the back, when he can either grip your hips or let his hands roam, is definitely something Xavier won’t pass on. In this position he can also freely rub what needs rubbing and he enjoys making you feel several things at once.

G = Goofy (are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.)

Can be pretty playful. Teasing especially, just like with aftercare, and making you flustered while he’s plowing into you not only gives Xavier a chuckle but also turns him on endlessly. Granted, he is like this only with someone he loves or cares for deeply and it’s a very soft side of him that nobody else except you sees.

H = Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)

He’s not smooth whatsoever, chest hair, arm hair, but he does trim the bush, not only for practical reasons, but also because it makes him and his cock look better. Xavier is not particularly vain, but being well groomed is high on priority list simply because he represents the Inquisition, so how he looks from head to toe matters.

I = Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect)

He thinks a lot but says little during sex, however you will know from how passionate he is and how much in the moment Xavier allows himself to be despite his countless tasks and duties as an Inquisitor. Touches and kisses especially will reflect how much he cares for your pleasure because he will be paying attention to your reactions closely and adjusting in accordance to them. So it’s very intimate, romantic even, although he wouldn’t call it as such.

J = Jack off (masturbation headcanon)

Does it maybe once a week when he’s been away from you for long enough to leave him craving for your presence, and he always does it while thinking about you. He will have something of yours to elevate the experience, a piece your scarf or a medallion, but if you are mindful enough to give Xavier a pict of yourself nude – then that is definitely being displayed on his personal dataslate for the duration. He takes time as well, pouring himself a glass of a good, rich drink, making sure that nobody will disturb him while he touches himself and relives private moments with you.

K = Kink (one or more of their kinks)

Loves being called by his title in bed, it’s a power trip for him even if you do it playfully, but hearing “Harder, Inquisitor.” and similar such sentences can make him near lose his composure immediately. Doesn’t matter what kind of job or station you have, he will always appreciate you indulging him in such way.

L = Location (favorite places to do the do)

Somewhere where he can feel safe enough and won’t wear his armor, simply because it’s not the easiest thing to take off, so usually the bedroom after his day’s work is done and Xavier can relax, wash up before indulging himself with you and not worry about being shot in the back of the head while he’s distracted.

M = Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going)

Just your mere presence by his side often turns him on. When Xavier allows someone into his life like this – then it’s possession that borders on obsession. You are his and that’s the sexiest thing to him, just the simple fact that nobody else can touch you.

N = No (something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)

Won’t force you to have sex. He will attempt couple times to change your mind and get you in the mood, but if you still refuse then he will stop and won’t push any further.

O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)

He enjoys both. Seeing you whimper with your legs on his shoulders is a sight for him to behold, but witnessing your mouth full with his cock is also a pleasure he won’t pass on, so it’s pretty much equal to him. He gives as much as you give him.

P = Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.)

Xavier enjoys going deep, but neither too fast or too slow, somewhere in the middle between the two. Slow doesn’t give him enough friction that he needs and usually doesn’t match the passion he brings when fucking, but too fast makes him (and most likely you) finish too soon, which robs the Inquisitor from the pleasure of buildup and consequent reward.

Q = Quickie (their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)

He will fuck you any chance he gets, granted those chances do not happen too often, but that’s exactly why he will take any opportunity to fill you with his cock and hear you moan. A risky quickie somewhere semi-public or just one before he has to leave in the morning for some mission – he will make sure that you think of him and only him, while Xavier too gets a sample of his lover to see him through the day.

R = Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.)

Depends on what kind of experimentation. Nothing too crazy with Xavier, that’s for sure. So maybe light restraints, blindfold or gagging can be included, but if you start pulling out latest AdMech inventions he will just leave you to entertain yourself. But besides that – he does take risks when he can, being nearly caught fucking you is something that the Inquisitor enjoys the thrill of.

S = Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?)

Two rounds is Xavier’s limit if without a decent break in between, and that’s when taking time in privacy and comfort of his bedroom. He makes sure that you are satisfied in other ways, if he has no need for another orgasm himself, by using his fingers or his mouth to ensure that you won’t have anything to complain about afterwards.

T = Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?)

As an Inquisitor, Xavier has access to everything that exists in the Imperium, but he still prefers the old-fashioned approach to sex: just him and you, naked. As mentioned above, he will experiment a little to change the pace of things, but sex toys, like dildos, he simply won’t allow in the bedroom.

U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)

Very teasing, very flirty, but does so secretly and privately. Seeing you blush and become all flustered gets Xavier all hot and bothered so he does it often. Dirty talk is absolutely not foreign to him and he will whisper all kinds of things to you, even in public, to ensure that you know exactly what he is thinking about. Besides the talks, Xavier will tease you during sex too. Stopping just before you come and making you beg for it, or teasing you with the tip of his cock until you are so impatient you demand he fucks you, are pretty common things with him.

V = Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)

Won’t scream his head off, that’s for sure, but he won’t silent either. He will be all panting in your ear, grunting and telling you how good you feel as he keeps thrusting, but someone standing outside the bedroom won’t hear his voice.

W = Wild card (a random headcanon for the character)

Despite indulging himself when single with casual sex, he doesn’t truly enjoy it and does it mechanically. He gains an orgasm and that’s pretty much enough for Xavier, but he won’t even offer a fake smile for such partner, just getting what he needs and making them come too just because in his mind that’s a fair exchange, but nothing more, nothing less.

X = X-ray (let’s see what’s going on under those clothes)

Bigger than average and on a thicker side. When it’s all erect – it’s attention-demanding sight! And can even look hard to fit in just from eyeing it, but of course that’s not the case at all.

Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?)

Very high, but only if he doesn’t have any pressing matters or duties. If the Imperium needs saving or if xenos are slaughtering entire planets, Xavier will politely ask you not to distract him. However, he will still indulge himself with a quickie before he leaves, even if he prefers to have sex on his terms, i.e. not being put in time constraints and so on.

Z = Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)

He makes sure that you are comfortable and satisfied, but will be usually to fall asleep first. With you, he is a protector, but he also feels safe as well, at home, and that makes Xavier let go of his usual vigilance.

“It s hard to lose oneself. So hard that 'll probably soon work out a way of finding myself, even if finding myself is again the lie that I live on.“

—Clarice Lispector (The Passion according to G. H.)

[thirdity]

I want the inexpressive. I want the inhuman inside the person; no, it isn’t dangerous, since people are human anyway, you don’t have to fight for that: wanting to be human sounds too pretty to me. I want the material of things. Humanity is drenched with humanization, as if that were necessary; and that false humanization trips up man and trips up his humanity. A thing exists that is fuller, deafer, deeper, less good, less bad, less pretty. Yet that thing too runs the risk, in our coarse hands, of becoming transformed into “purity,” our hands that are coarse and full of words.

Clarice Lispector, The Passion According to G. H.

"Hell, because the world held no more human meaning for me, and man no longer had human meaning for me. And without that humanization and without the sentimentalization of the world - I am terrified."

hey justine! i see you reblogging beautiful quotes all the time and i was wondering if you could recommend me your favorite authors or books/poetry/anything?

this is so sweet <3

the list would be very VERY long if i was given an opportunity to put here every single writer and poet i love but for now i'll give you names of those who i've been reblogging (and obsessing over or came back to) a lot lately.

─ mary oliver (upstream: selected essays, devotions: the selected poems, a thousand mornings: poems)

─ virginia woolf (a room of one's own, to the lighthouse, the waves)

─ franz kafka (basically all of his short stories, e.g. the trial, the metamorphosis, his letters and diaries)

─ anne carson (as a translator the thing that mostly interests me in carson is her transaltion and adaptation of the oresteia - an oresteia but when it comes to poetry i'll point to plainwater: essays and poetry. i hope to read more from her and you can also find titles of her works on goodreads!)

─ anne sexton (selected or collected poems and i read that her letters are worth reading!)

─ clarice lispector (a breath of life and other, e. g. the hour of the star, the passion according to g. h., near to the wild heart, famaily ties)

─ susan sontag (journals and essays)

─ anaïs nin (her diaries)

─ albert camus (if you're interested in pondering upon human condition and existentialism, then everything this author has to offer! e. g. the stranger, the fall, the plague, the myth of sisyphus)

─ louise glück (collections of poems, e. g. poems 1962-2012, the triumph of achilles, averno)

─ george seferis (selected or collected poems)

─ rainer maria rilke (letters to a young poet, collected or selected poems, his letters)
