Pride with the DC boys

Part 1 of 2

Top left, Floyd Lawton, top right, Roy Harper, bottom left, Connor Kent, bottom right Hal Jordan (younger)

Floyd

He’s a great boyfriend

He’s romantic and is big on PDA

Loves to show you off

During pride, Floyd will get the pride flag out the second June 1st hits

Will drag you gay bars

Has a mix of a friendship group who also tag along

Floyd drinks whiskey all year round so will not get the pretty cocktails

Isn’t too big on the ‘stereotypes’

Floyd is a top so will have his way with you the second he gets you alone at home

Roy

This man is a romantic novel reader

Roy has a designated playlist for just the two of you

Isn’t big on the pride scene, but will go to gay bars

The most PDA he will fall for is holding your hand

Roy is big on skincare, but mostly as a redhead

Roy drinks the hard liquor, but does dabble the occasional wine

Will sing along to Adele, Rihanna, Britney, basically any gay anthem

Roy has a few friends who are drag queens so knows the good spots

Roy is a top, and a rough one at that

Connor

As a Kryptonian, his romance and love language is a little different

Connor likes to tease

Connor likes any kind of physical contact with you, as his boyfriend he would prefer you initiate it

Didn’t know what pride month was until you told him, though Connor wasn’t really aware about sexuality either

Likes to explore new places

Tried a Long Island iced tea…did not care for it

PDA isn’t a thing, but Connor will put his arm around you

Too loud in clubs but then his head is filled with noise a lot due to his super hearing

Drinks red wine mostly

Doesn’t have many friends outside of the team, so happy to meet yours

Connor is versatile, so will either like you to have your way with him, or for him to be rough with you when he tops

Hal

A huge part of Hal’s story is the man by his side

Hal is most definitely a cuddler, holds your hand tightly, occasionally kisses your forehead

During Pride, he will go all out - paints his nails, dresses more flamboyant etc

You found it cute your first pride with him, Hal grinned ear to ear as he marched with you during the parade

Hal has actually never missed a single parade in his life

Loves gay bars as much as you do

The gayest cocktail he can order, Hal will order it - even if it tastes bad

Loves going to drag shows

Will play anything by Lady GaGa, Ariana, Dua, Madonna ….

Is 💯 a top, and a large one at that so his boyfriends hole will be stretched good 😊

I am just saying that so far a detail that people have brushed over in Asteroid City is that Schubert knew Jones and personally sent him to Conrad for the role. Gave him money and everything for them to meet. He probably told Jones what ice cream Conrad likes. Which their (Conrad and Jones) meeting and relationship been noted as "lore" for the play, which means that Schubert inadvertently set the two up

I genuinely like to believe that the two of them are friends and were somewhat close. That's why Schubert got on his knees to be level with Jones to reassure him. His body language and expression hints at them being comfortable. I have done the exact same thing to my friends who are upset

And during the sleep study, it is implied that Schubert and Conrad are seemingly friends outside of working together in the past. Especially by how they randomly hold hands and the shoulder hold (same could be applied to Saltzburg tbh we all know the Hollywood assholes are all friends). Jones in the back of the room, covering his face and watching, could be interpreted as him coming along to support his (at that point and probably) boyfriend and to see his good friend

Which leads into how I believe in the theory of Conrad's death not being an accident, but Conrad's own doing. And that I like to think that Jones spent days crying to Schubert

Anyways.

so... does this change anything between us? (adrian)

"Do you want it to change anything between us Adrian?" Wanda asked, her gaze lingering on the other. She too had feelings for the other but she had been reluctant to fall in love again. After losing Vision, she had been so scared that she would be destined to be alone, to lose those that she loved. And so, she tended to keep people at arms length. "What would you want to happen?"

I promised you a tier list, I did a tier list

But honestly it’s extremely funny knowing that Alfonso X died in some lame stupid way followed by an ugly feud with his son, daughter-in-law, son-in-law (who is like king of France) and a toddler grandson

Though knowing that his mother was from Hohenstaufen family what did i expect

It’s family traditions boys

Writer Questionnaire Tag

Thank you for the tag @wyked-ao3

It's always fun to do one of these lol

How long have you had your writing Tumblr/Writeblr? A fast and loose estimate is fine!

I've had a Tumblr account for about 6 months or so but I've only been a 'writeblr' for a couple months.

What led you to create it?

Idk tbh. I kinda just decided that I wanted to share my writing and it led me here.

What’s your favorite thing about the Writeblr community?

All of the creativity is amazing. I'm a whore for lore and world building, and the worlds that y'all come up with are immaculate. I could only hope to think of a world that vast and interesting.

What’s one thing you’d like your mutuals to know about you?

Please ddon't take me seriously. I've said it before and I'll say it again, but I'm not just a clown, I'm the entire circus. The day you take me too seriously (especially as an author) is the death of my whimsy.

Is there anything you’d like to see more of on your dash?

Nothing I can really think of. I'm pretty happy with how it is rn lol

WIP it Good

Which Works-in-Progress (WIPs) or writing projects are you noodling about, lately?

Bloody Hands are Kind and None of Us Heroes are always floating around. They're never not beating my ass with ideas and scenes.

How long have you been working on them?

I've been working of the series component of Bloody Hands are Kind since February, and None of Us Heroes for about 1 and a half months.

Do you remember what inspired them/what got you started?

None of Us Heroes started from the Honkai Star Rail brainworms known as Adventurine and Dr Ratio. Their designs and story inspired the two main characters of None of Us Heroes. The series component of Bloody Hands are Kind was basically me shoving a long-standing OC of mine into the Hunger Games universe and praying it would work.

How much time, in your best estimation, do you spend thinking about them?

At least a few hours a day, usually when I'm laying in bed trying to fall asleep. My array of illnesses make falling asleep hard and I find that thinking about my stories makes it easier to forget that I'm not asleep (and therefore hopefully fall asleep).

When someone asks the dreaded, “What do you write about,” question, what do you usually say?

"Whatever the voices command."

What do you want to say (if it’s different from what you do say)?

Meh I say that because I find it funny so idk if I'd change it.

Let’s Rotate Blorbos

Name any characters you created. Side characters, protagonists, antagonists, characters who’ve never been written, the first original abomination you ever pulled from your ass; whomever you’d like!

OHH LORD THIS IS GONNA BE A LONG LIST. So we got Adrian, Nova, Amarantha, Jack, Cora Beth, Ben Al-Badawi (x3), Jack Collins, William Talt, Blue, Zero, One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Azrael (aka Amane), Lucifer, Achlys, Quinn Amsel, Atlas Selic, Michael, Adena, Nakir, Evangeline, Celeste, Saeko, Gabriel, Kaz Anderson, Caspian, Jyn Osaka, Nikolai Sevigny, Cyril, Kylan Whitlock, Kestrel, Leo Valandi, Anaïs, Delph, Laz (short for Lazarus), Neo, Roland, Tobias, Will, Mirwais, Simon Cruz, Conrad, James Blackthorn, Alessandra Snow, Max Foster, Benyamin Safi, Haeyun Sin, and Dante Silvestre. There are more, but I either don't care enough to write them down or I've forgotten their names.

Who’s the most unhinged?

Blue 100%. He's not human and it is not uncommon for his species to be cannibalistic. He's not, but he's still unhinged asf

Who comes the most naturally for you to write?

Max Foster. He's easy to write because me and him share a lot if similarities.

Do you ever cringe at them?

Oh definitely. A lot of my old characters are cringy.

How much control do you feel you have over your characters? AKA, do they ever “write themselves,” refuse to cooperate, or do things you didn’t expect? To what degree? Are some less cooperative than others?

Dude idk what to tell you, whenever I try and force my characters to do something I hit the biggest writer's block wall I've ever seen.

On Writeblr Engagement

Do you enjoy people asking questions about your characters? And do you have a preferred means of receiving said questions? For example, as Asks, as replies, as reblogs, as tag notes, as comments on AO3, etc.

YES YES PLEASE ASK ME!! Anyways, I don't really care how you ask (I just want you to ask lol), but if I had to pick it'd either be asks or comments on Ao3. Though ofc I still love questions in any and all forms, even if it's something like making a separate post and tagging me loll.

What makes you want to follow another Writeblr account? Do you follow ‘em as you see ‘em, or take time scoping out the blog to make sure you align with its content? Do you follow based on WIPs, or vibes?

I mostly follow people if I think their cool or if I find myself consistently liking their posts as they come across my dash. I don't follow people often tho lol. I only follow abt 20 people I think.

What makes you decide against following?

If their vibes are too negative, if they're super political, if their content doesn't align with something I care about, or if they're super anti something I am. Any combination of those could be the reason I don't follow.

Do your mutuals’ characters occupy space in your noodle?

Yes. I think about other people's WIPs and such all of the time. I love stories, what can I say?

Do you interact with non-mutuals often?

Of course! As I said, I don't follow many people so I don't have many mutuals. I love interacting with different people though, so I'm happy to strike up conversations with random people I find cool!

Who the Hell is Müller-Brockmann?

What are the underlying reasons for the success or failure of a design manifesto? How can cultural exchange bring new value to the field of graphic design? At the end of the day is the contemporary scene still truly innovative or simply basking in past glories?

Over the course of a residency at a London gallery, Swiss designer Demian Conrad invited an array of graphic designers and typographers past and present to share the anecdotes, stories and scandals that have marked the international design scene over the course of the last century. The result is Who the Hell is Müller-Brockmann? an examination of the ways in which the Swiss Style influenced British graphic design and vice versa.

This celebration of the ongoing dialogue and collaboration that has existed between the design traditions of these two countries also lays bare the divergences and conflicts that lie beneath the surface, and examines how such things as a typeface or a layout grid can come to have such an enduring impact on a global community and elicit such strong emotions.

Each participant was asked to bring a design-related artifact that represents their personal connection with the Swiss Style, all of which are presented in this volume. These images and the dialogues they generate create a bridge between the typographic traditions and practices of Britain and Switzerland.

Charlemagne Palestine - DINGGGDONGGGDINGGGzzzzzzz ferrrr SSSOFTTT DIVINI TIESSSSS!!!!!!!!! - two new longform pieces for bells

DINGGGDONGGGDINGGGzzzzzzz!!!!!!! In the newest record by the iconoclastic Brooklyn-born composer Charlemagne Palestine (b. 1947), find two mesmerizing works for carillon, the keyboard-controlled bell tower derived in the 16th century. On side A, a new piece recorded at the artist’s studio in Belgium—a high-ceiling, stuffed-animal-packed paradise he calls Charleworld—among friends and “divinities,” his name for the thousands of plush toys he’s amassed since the ’60s. On the flip side, Blank Forms Editions’ very first and long-out-of-print release appears on vinyl for the first time: a cathartic street recording of the maximalist composer’s 2018 musical eulogy for his late friend Tony Conrad, performed on the bells of St. Thomas Episcopal Church, where the two first met. Two mesmerizing “klanggdedangggebannggg” sessions in the Quasimodo of 53rd Street’s inimitable, trance-induced style. Design by Alec Mapes-Frances A1: Recorded on March 21, 2023, at CHARLEWORLDDDDD, Brussels, Belgium, by Lawrence Kumpf. B1: Recorded on April 8, 2017, at the Clemente Soto Vélez Cultural and Educational Center, New York, by Ben Manley and on May 7, 2017, at Saint Thomas Church, New York, by Adrian Rew. Mixed by Robbie Lee.
