Sorry not sorry, but it’s just funny when people of color & those who identify as BIPOC in fandom spaces have been pointing out how racism runs rampant in online communities whilst getting jumped for it. And when they try to make space for themselves, the space that they’re entitled to btw, they get pushed out because white narratives are favored in fics or they’re harassed to the point where it makes it literally unsafe for them to share the same online spaces as their white “peers”.

Please don’t be purposefully obtuse or willfully ignorant because you don’t catch how something might come off as blatantly harmful and violent to marginalized people especially with historical context. Quit being stupid when it comes to racism & microaggressions when we’re living in a time where we have Nazis claiming power and supporting eugenics movements threatening to exterminate anyone who is not considered an able bodied pure blood cis white man. And it’s ironic that some of y’all be moving like feds in a community that was created to support a latino man of color who doesn’t meet white Eurocentric beauty standards and comes from a family of political refugees, but that’s somehow always missed. Y’all constantly talk about community and inclusion particularly in this fandom/community, just to end up doing shit that harms the very thing y’all be preaching about and it’s worse when people are so fucking passive about it. Usually that’s because your mutuals that are being threatened in such a way do you a favor by suffering in silence, cause when they post the anon hate they do get, they get told to just block and move on and that within itself is a privilege whether you guys realize it or not.

And I don’t care about being harsh in my approach cause we don’t have the time to be coddling people on how not to spread or do “racist” shit on accident for aesthetics even in fanfic, especially as an adult. Y’all don’t give the same grace to your mutuals who are getting slurs and threats thrown in their fucking inbox repeatedly to the point where they hate even coming on here because of the bullshit they have to deal with on a daily basis from 4chan incel wannabe losers who use people’s identities as a way to attack them. Get it together. Do better. All of you.

◆◈-About / Tags-◈◆

This blog:

- ...Is a dumping ground for shameless pale smut--exploring the concept of nonsexual romantic relationships in facets often treated as exclusively sexual! There will be no sex on this blog, but you may run into kissing and physical closeness/intimacy (including nudity), bondage/BDSM-adjacent content, and kink of both human and alien flavors. - That said, nothing I write/draw/post on here is intended as sexual and I invite you to try separating those things in your head. Because: it kicks ass. :) - Further Homestuck/mixed fandoms at my main, splickedylit!

Notes Of Engagement:

- I love feedback and engagement, and requests can be a welcome source of inspiration! I don't make any promises as far as filling them, but feel free to send them if you'd like! - Content I post may also be incomplete, with unwritten sections marked with a (?). - At times I will also run interactive Choose Your Own Adventure stories, usually pale Gamkar of some variety, with the characters' course of action determined by polls.

Tags Of Note:

- Level III Pale Event - Probably mild and fluffy.  I didn’t even blush to post/reblog it. - Level II Pale Event - A bit more intense.  More physically intimate or intense/cathartic.  Blushed but posted anyway. - Level I Pale Event - I am softly screaming as I make myself post this*. - Pale Kink - exactly what it says on the lid.  Some kink that humans would consider kink (bondage is a favorite) and some more experimental playing around in the sandbox of "what kind of kinks would aliens with a socially-accepted romantic+nonsexual relationship come up with?"

*This blog has been running for some time now, and I've gotten older, queerer, more comfortable with kink and even more ace as the years have gone by--as you go further back in the tags, especially, things may not seem to warrant their tags! I've left them as tagged at the time I posted them. :)

Hiii, I remember seeing you posting your sketchbook and was wondering if you would kindly share some more of its contents, please?

I lovveeeee your art style 🤩🤩🤩

Ps. More vampyr pls, love your fanarts!

.TYSM!!! I’m very obsessed with Vampyr, I think it very much scratches my vintage itch which I’m not exactly getting from anywhere else?? Apart from smutty audiobooks (hello Nicholas Hawke Dragon Age II Bolton and that silly book 💋) if anyone has any recommendations for nice smutty mxm audiobooks that are like set any time before the 20th century I’m here for it.

.I’m not even going to lie, I haven’t drawn in my sketchbook since October…… and there was a gap between them and June before that so…… HOWEVER I am getting back into it just for this ask because I’m getting frustrated with digital art atm ngl.

.It’s not through reluctance or anything but I’ve had a lot going on irl, with moving house, and renting one whilst buying a new one and having to remodel that, babysitting weekly ughughugh, big family drama on top of that, and one of my dogs was sick from October to mid-January just after having her season and that involved basically 24 hour observation for two weeks and major surgery and then specialist care and a three hour round trip to a fancy vets like weekly and she racked up £4,000 worth of bills like GIRL NO!!!!! She is Okay-A now, and weirdly smarter and more energetic after her surgery, she’s gorgeous and I love her!!! Also Dragon Age came out so that was a whole month gone lmao.

.The only things I have to show are either a few pages of artist studies, which idk how I feel about posting them because they’re people I follow on tumblr and it’s like I mean yeah my sketchbook looks fire because of fancy pictures and notes but also it’s not technically my art and it’s like…. Hmmm…. And the other one is… uh… redraws of screenshots for the first episode of Father Brown, which I did in one day and you can kind of tell how tired I got in the end lmao, and idk if people need to know how much I love that show, especially with my old man fixation….. like… girlies do NOT connect the dots here, but that’s all I have!.

author reclist: toomuchplor

a few months ago, when i was coming back to fandom in earnest, i came across this post from @sitp-recs. explorations of faith, divinity and worship are some of the tropes i find most furiously compelling, so i had to jump into o come, all ye faithful as soon as possible. i did, only to fall headfirst in obsessive, wide-eyed, awe-inspired love. @toomuchplor writes a desire that's both slow and heady, relentless and gentle, all-consuming and a rest stop to breathe easy. i couldn't help but read through (most of) their catalogue in a matter of days. this author's thematic range is astonishing, their characterisations lead to delicious stories where two headstrong, wilful and perennially longing men crash, fumble and rush into achingly sweet love and burning lust.

what always spools me in with plor, though, is their use of circumstance, especially in longer fics. every fic has a premise iron-clad in its fascinating, inventive, raw and exciting potential. more often than not, i've found them doing something i haven't encountered before in fandom at all, or reworking a popular trope in ways that make you go, 'oh. oh, i never thought about that happening, how did i never think of that happening?'

i've loved everything i've read from them, but here's a selection of some of my absolute favourites that i'll be going back to, over and over:

i've got a beautiful feeling (everything's going my way) (E, 3.5k)

“I’ve got such a boner,” Harry says, voice scratchy, just slitting his eyes open now, turning his head on his pillow to face Draco. “Oh, lovely, good morning to you, too,” Draco says.

a slice of life like the plush inside of a ripe mango— a love that's mature, constant, beating like a strong heart. the filthy, hilarious, gorgeous portrait of harry and draco's married life— the familiarity of sex, the rush of wanting each other as much as ever.

o come, all ye faithful & all the angels cry amen (E, ~22k total)

In which Draco finds faith in the church, and Harry finds faith in Draco.

an achingly tender rumination on faith as love, and love as worship. one of the most heartbreaking and realistic depictions of the reckoning it would take for harry potter to accept he has found refuge and rest in draco malfoy's arms. i loved the non-chronological, dual timeline storytelling— that particular form works so well when there's a taut, twinging thread holding both narratives together, and harry and draco's gravitational attraction to each other, fraught in parts and at peace in others was the perfect anchor.

time and too much don't belong together (E, 23k)

A Malfoy family heirloom gets triggered in a raid, binding Draco Malfoy to Ron Weasley; neither of them is too chuffed about this.

a masterclass in revelations. the reader can tell, from the outset, there's more here than meets the eye. the reader can also guess, from the beginning, what the dynamic in the shadows is. tense and breathtaking writing, you know what's coming, but every time you're fed a morsel you cling to it with both hands. one of the most inventive takes i've seen on the lust potion/spell trope in this fandom, and done in a way that makes you want to see it over and over and over again.

polar night/midnight sun (E, 54k)

Harry travels to arctic Norway on the trail of dragon egg poachers, only to find he's been assigned to work alongside the only NorMagPol Auror north of sixty: one Draco Malfoy. It's been ten years since they crossed paths, and Malfoy isn't exactly what Harry expected or remembered. For one thing, he wears a lot more hand-knits? When a sudden winter storm strands the pair, unable to use magic to rescue themselves, they take shelter in a one-room Norwegian hytte.

exquisitely atmospheric. uses extenuating circumstances in some of the most delicious ways. builds character and interpersonal dynamics through those small little elements of storytelling (draco in knitwear! brynjar the dog! the mundane pillowtalk! the quirks of their miscommunication!) that go the longest way in having characters leap off the screen into your personal space. also the sex in this is absolutely mind-blowing, i was hooked on every glorious word.

truth to materials (co-written by lately) (E, 58k)

In which Harry learns to appreciate art and other pleasures of the flesh.

decadent. in premise, in language, in characterisation, just absolutely decadent. this version of harry, bewildered and captivated by draco's out-there artistry is one of the funniest and most endearing i've encountered in fic, ever. his head, so full of determination and good intentions and terribly flawed and completely believable thinking, was such a brilliant place to set this fic. and draco— lord. you know that moment of transition, that click, when a piece of art goes from something untouchable and distant to a soulful thing you keep close because you recognise it as a cultural, emotional response? this fic felt like a literary project trying to capture that click, except it's a shift in perspective about a person. draco— the cool, untouchable, subversive artist who becomes irrevocably, warmly, achingly human.

probationary action (E, 63k)

As part of the terms of the probationary contract, DRACO LUCIUS MALFOY shall submit for inspection his WAND on the last day of every month, such inspection to be carried out by a duly registered and fully qualified AUROR in the employ of the MINISTRY OF MAGIC, and such inspection to include a PRIORI INCANTATEM spell to ensure that no PROHIBITED MAGICS as heretofore described have been practised by the aforementioned probationer.

*incoherent screaming*. a fic that starts with a premise so lighthearted and filthy that you think it's going to be a long, kinky fic about two rather hilariously perverted men getting it on, except it also gets into some of the most resonant discussions of post-war revenge tactics and human rights neglect i've ever read. the dynamic between harry and draco is simultaneously so light and so weighted, this is a fic that holds you down and keeps you there till you're done.

in conclusion: an entrancing author, a gift of a writer. i can't wait to see what else they have in store for this fandom.

[dead-inside-demiboy]

....So apparently you can have an "oh shit I love this person" moment without it being a dating/attraction thing.

[youjustwaitsunshine]

if you haven't gotten it yet i don't think i should waste any energy on explaining what makes seb a great driver love and light ❤️

Vezzpa during the prelude of the @kirbyoctournament

note: it was not.

for those not in the know, she did not at all willingly enter this tourney. That honor goes to her childish boss, who was looking for amusement via the suffering of someone who yells at him daily.

She is a 39 year old pencil pusher with back problems. She would not win in a real fight-
