"I mean, that's kind of the story of the wizard, right? My magic is all effort."

Entirely correct. The most long-suffering class. It's why they often turn to hubristic madness.

Snapetober Day 16: Tangle

[marvey-sideblog]

sorry but harvey being submissive in bed is the most delusional take ever this man is dominance incarnate, “i like to bend people to my will”… “good boy”..”puppy”….”I want it to know who it’s DADDY IS” like cmon now!!! that man dcks mike down each time he gives lip and it’s cannon..

anon he contains multitudes! yes he would do these things, yes he could dominate mike and enjoy it. but! that man has to be macho in-control all the time and sometimes, anon, he really fucking enjoys (like, a lot) when someone he's attracted to completely manhandles and controls him.

He LOVES it. It is so so sexy to him.

And he LOVES when Mike talks back to him, when Mike is telling him what for. Yes sometimes the sexual satisfaction would come from putting Mike in his place over that...That would 100% be sexy to him. And Mike would 100% LOVE being subm/ssive to Harvey; that boy has Fantasised. Yes, Mike's "aye-aye, Captain" did things to Harvey, that is a scene of all time (and, tbf! Mike is actually the one taking the lead there! Harvey Captain fantasy where Harvey still gets to be subm/ssive.......). BUT. Harvey would also LOVE Mike turning the tables on that. Mike's an equal to him, and Mike taking control would be so hot, for both of them. There'd be a lil amusement for Harvey and then he'd genuinely be so turned on by it. I'm not talking about Season 1 Mike. I'm talking about the people they became together, to each other. Sometimes their sex is pure vanilla just love...Sometimes Mike would tell Harvey what to do and relish in it; they both would.

And, for the matter at whole...You think when Harvey's mind wandered about Jessica, he was thinking about domming her? NO. It would be Jessica domming him in every never-gonna-actually-happen flitting fantasy. Yes, ma'am. Come now. He'd be giddy at that.

Harvey is not one dimensional he actually loves to be playful and feminine and pushed into the mattress and told to take his shirt off.

Lmao. Bakugo accidentally calls/butt dials you for some reason or another. NO WAIT. Bakugo who has a crush on you accidentally calls/butt dials you for some reason or another and panics about what to say and accidentally turns it into a booty call somehow

This is becoming a trend, now… eheh.

👀👀👀 I'm looking at the tags on your last post and do I see a suggestion of Dom!Lucifer radioapple??? I don't ever think I read a dom!Lucifer fic (because the fandom immediately clocked Lucifer as the sub he is), so I say I'm extremely intrigued!!

Also, wow does Alastor have a talent for getting the Most Pathetic Guys Ever (Lucifer and Vox) to dom him. Like, it's a skill at this point lol.

Anyway, I look forward to your writing!!

CONGRATS, YOU'VE ACTIVATED MY TRAP CARD: I actually have thoughts about this!

I firmly believe that Lucifer is The Sub Of All Time in literally any other context, but I also think that Alastor very deliberately and skillfully hit just the right buttons in canon that Lucifer cannot back down in front of this asshole. If I transpose that into a bedroom dynamic, then... (un)fortunately for Alastor, he is punching out of his weight class.

It's a massively different dynamic in my head than radiostatic because the key balance of radiostatic is that it's a perpetual bit of careful give-and-take to balance their mutual ego-obsessions and for Alastor to not feel like he's taken psychic damage to his pride and thus needing to remind Vox (either by being verbally mean or by taking a physical stance) that Vox doesn't really have control in the situation. (Which is also why I get a little giggle when people comment on the hypnokink fic with something like, "What if Vox did [thing Alastor would not be okay with]? Wouldn't that be fucked?!" because... yes, but also, he wouldn't survive the night and he knows that.) (Also the hypnokink fic is somehow not the one where they work out trust issues. That's the NEXT one.)

Anyway, in contrast, radioapple has the dynamic of Lucifer being the one person in hell who there is no way I can imagine Alastor could match up against even at full power... which, yes, means that Lucifer can swat him down if he gets tetchy, but also kinda spares Alastor's pride at the same time! He can snap his teeth about it for some performative ego-maintenance, but it's like getting mad that you can't literally fistfight the sun. It just doesn't make sense. Nobody would ever expect that to be a reasonable match up. Alastor's narcissism doesn't get prodded by Lucifer the same way that it would if Vox tried something.

... Also, I think it'd be really funny if radioapple was just sub on sub violence. Lucifer knows what gets him going and he's going to inflict that on Alastor with great prejudice. Meanwhile his internal dialogue is nonstop references to back when his wife used to fuck him up just like this.

saltburn and privilege; an investigative tangent

god, where to begin.

i've seen a lot of people discussing this moving and specifically using the word "privilege," along with power, dominance, desire, control, greed, etc. me included. these are all very essential aspects of this movie. what i want to focus on is emerald fennell's nuanced portrayal of how different types of privilege interact. which one trumps the other? which types of privilege are more visible, while others are more subtle? what differentiates different levels and layers of privilege?

when emerald fennell describes the core of this movie, her inspiration for this script, she talks about desire versus untouchability. she chose the most absurd type of wealth to represent untouchability: the british aristocracy. old wealth, generational wealth, so far removed from the majority of their ancestors' sins that they can arguably ignore that the money they're standing on is dirty. and they live in fucking castles. this is one of the most unbelievable, gaudy, visible types of privilege you can imagine. everyone is entirely aware and feels entirely justified to call attention to this type of privilege.

oliver, being the main character, might be considered the least privileged within this movie. i'd like to take a critical look at this. this movie is not a straightforward class commentary; there is no traditional "the poor eat the rich" dynamic. because although some people perceive oliver as the least privileged character in this movie, he is incredibly privileged. oliver comes from a comfortable upper-middle-class home in the suburbs. oliver has two loving parents and two sisters. oliver is white. oliver is a man. interestingly, from oliver's perspective, he's not privileged at all. he hates the cattons because they are more wealthy, more comfortable, more untouchable. this extends to venetia and farleigh, even though oliver has applicable layers of privilege stacked above even them. he knows he has a certain type of power over them... yet he still hates them because they have one type of power he doesn't have.

that brings me to my next point. the existence of one type of privilege does not negate the effects of another, entirely different, type of privilege (or marginalization) [quote]. this is what venetia and farleigh's characters draw attention to. venetia experiences some of the same struggles as many women; she is ignored in her own household, perpetually existing within her brother's shadow (rosamund pike once lovingly pointed out that venetia does not have a single conversation with elspeth in this movie). she's insecure about her body and her worth, so she takes what little opportunity she has to use felix's friends as a form of self-fulfillment. farleigh is not only half black, but he's also queer, non-immediate family, and unaccustomed to english culture (specifically this type of english culture). farleigh is, in some ways, more financially unstable than oliver's family because his mom was too sheltered to understand money and his dad is, apparently, "a lunatic." (that's not to say farleigh isn't economically privileged because oh boy, he absolutely is).

this movie doesn't intend to incite pity from the viewers for any of these characters, and it generally doesn't. oliver is pathetically greedy, ungrateful, and desperate for a chance to lick the boots (or bathtubs) of those above him. venetia is pathetically bored of the privilege she does have yet is still so entrenched in emotional turmoil due to other areas in which she is marginalized. farleigh is pathetically attached to uninterrupted comfort and arbitrary white-centric expectations, constantly running from or attacking any threat of struggle. none of these people understand, comparatively, what the less fortunate experience. they are so ignorant to the bubble they exist in and just how grateful they should be for what monumental privileges they do have. but... felix.

felix is the epitome of privilege. oliver is specifically obsessed with felix. just like oliver, felix is a white man. but felix is more wealthy, more comfortable, more untouchable than oliver. oliver isn't as infatuated with farleigh and venetia because he's fully aware of the privilege they lack. he's fully aware of the privilege he holds above them, and he enthusiastically uses this power he has against them. to be in the position of oliver is to be consumed by jealousy and greed so bottomless that you will assert your dominance over any group that you're able to. felix doesn't need to do this. he's been handed every privilege under the sun and therefor welcomes the less fortunate with childlike interest and an equally childlike attention span. there's an aspect of farleigh and venetia's marginalization that is so invisible, so quiet and unassuming, that felix doesn't even notice it. he can't possibly be confronted by it. to be in the position of oliver is to understand what power you hold over others, because there is always more power to have.

racism, sexism, wealth, power, control, desire. there are so many facets of this movie that come into play. it may seem overwhelming, but this is... how things work. commentary on wealth is, and should be, equally a commentary on other areas of privilege. to be black and wealthy means different things than to be white and wealthy. to be a wealthy woman means different things than to be a wealthy man. to be rich to some also means you're much less rich than others, unless you're the richest person in the world. and, as this movie so beautifully portrays, to be richer than most doesn't make you less messy. the catton family is an ugly one, but also a complexly human one. each catton (or start) is jealous of someone else for another reason. each catton is emotionally damaged or incompetent for another reason. each catton has a different layer of privilege over the other. and each catton loves everyone in saltburn, because this is still a family, albeit a terrible one.

This is just a sneak peek at things that I have been working on in the background amongst the regular drawings I've been posting.

First up is a sketch/palette revision of the main art for SugarFiend (Or I guess I should say WAL-70)'s newest reference sheet with my colorful commentary. (I know it doesn't look like it. Trust me, my friend has already made plenty'a jokes that my sketches are just drawings) I wasn't happy with his old design/concept so yeah. Please ignore how hard I half-assed that shock collar is. I'm fixing it in the lineart phase, promise.

(For SOME context; he is the 70th Wally Playfellow has made in this AU (thus, the tag) and is the "genetic blueprint" for all the other neighbours. But I'll tell you all about that when I release the new ref, teehee.)

The other thing is the thing is of course threaded sight, which is nearly done! These are just two previews of page 3, however.

And look! I didn't forget to change the color of Lionel's hair this time! Now he and Wallace are twinning like they should be! (I also fixed that weird ass look the freckle brush I use had)

Wallace (And the respective AU Lionel is featured in/made for) belongs to @lizaisdrawing (Please get your man, dawg, he's gettin' a little TOO silly.)

Sometimes I forget Princess Peach Showtime exists actually. Like it's not bad it's just so disconnected from the rest of the series plot and genre wise I kind of just. Forget it happened???? Like we as a fandom do not bring it up at all chcbcbxbsfg.
