[window-on-the-west]

You: writing beautiful, poetic, sentimental mpreg

Me: writing a whole ass paragraph where Gale lovingly mansplains pregnancy to Tav.

twin disasters (affectionate)

OKAY BUT YOU CAN'T PRETEND THAT THAT ISN'T SOMETHING GALE WOULD DO. HE WOULD. HE DEFINITELY WOULD. AKJSDKJFNGNKJNDKJFGF

autistic! john price gender neutral reader

i gave this "no thought" and yet it's so long lmao. i am just spitballing tho so excuse any mistakes and pls enjoy. happy autism awareness months fellow autis xx

likeee. john is just my very beautiful caricature for beefy and hairy older men who are the most gentlemen like perverts with old men values. it tracks

- ᰔ - his favorite interest is on the military and the ways it's been used on other military entities and populations throughout history. (he's not a soldier in this because...well no) he spends hours of his free time watching documentaries, writing in his many journals notes after reading war journals and the likes. and after he gets his younger, lovely bird you convince him to start sharing his analysis online, finding community with other nerds.

- ᰔ - contemplating whether he'd have his own small company or just work for one. he'd be remiss on having to be the face, having to interact with people in professional circumstances. masking and trying to follow so many different cues throughout the day instead of just working would leave him far too drained.

maybe it's his company but he has kyle be the face. he's the most personable out of the group and he wouldn't want kate to have to deal with all the misogyny that comes with blue collar work. not that she couldn't handle herself but she's also just so much better at connecting with actual clientele than being showy and amiable.

- ᰔ - the aspect of change he hates with a passion is the loss of family values. he tries to listen and learn, not be so toxic. he's been alive long enough to see and draw the line on relationships that have been some of the worst of those values. but he still wants three, maybe four kids and a nice house he's repaired himself. a much nicer fence than plain white picket but a fence none the less. a dog and a partner to come home to cooking a nice meal that he can dote on. show how thankful he is for them after the babes are down to bed and it's just them in their king sized bed.

he's not too big on religion but he grew up in church. pretend to go every sunday whenever he takes the new branch of the price family to visit his parents. get the little ones involved in sports so he can take a random friday off to go watch them run around with friends and score points. pizza parties and ice cream at the local shop with a bunch of rowdy kids that will be fast asleep on the ride home.

he's just incredibly buffed up on the idea of being the man of the home that gives himself so his family can thrive.

so forgive him when he's offended and can't hide his perhaps irrational anger as the pretty bird he's managed to get to go out with him says they want to pay their half of the first date. when they're talking about what they want a future life to look like and he's absolutely not having it when you say bills should be divided. separate bank accounts are one thing, he'll just make sure he's got extra cash on hand to give to you but having you pay for something he can afford himself is rude. is he supposed to spend his money on himself? when he can just make sure you and your future family are well taken care of.

if he's not taking care of his partner what is he doing for you exactly? what kind of man is he when he comes home to find you fixing the hole in the wall from a moving fiasco. he's absolutely livid and mute as he gives you a nasty stink eye for days. didn't even have the audacity to call someone to fix it. no, you got on your knees and did it yourself. an affront he's going to be hanging onto for many years to come.

it takes a while for him to come around to the idea that he also needs to be taken care of. shared spa days and funding his interests is as much as you've been able to get him to budge on the subject.

the one change you're glad he's not willing to make is shaving. he'll trim down his beard and body hair every so often but he prefers being covered and warm. not to mention the memory of your reaction the first time you saw him naked. the way your pupils dilated and the loud moan you let out before jumping him is a highlight moment.

- ᰔ - he's got an oral fixation. he needs something in his mouth at most times in order to stim and focus on other things. whether it's a toothpick or a cigar depends on the time and content of the day. he refuses to use those toys he's seen online, they're all far too childish looking for a grown man to be using.

you have a miscellaneous drawer in your nightstand that's full of a few packs of cigarettes as well. he doesn't smoke those, prefers a nice clean cigar, but he likes to keep it hanging from his lips to fidget with. and when you're alone together or in private company he'll drag you towards him. head pressed into the crook of your shoulder to chew on your skin. you're constantly covered in teeth marks from how much he nibbles on your skin to release emotions and calm his mind.

another stim he has that you think is adorable is when he's standing. he'll randomly hike up on his tippy toes and back down. it makes you quietly laugh when he absentmindedly repeats the action again and again.

- ᰔ - noise sensitivity and emotion regulation. he didn't grow up in a time period where he had readily available tools to help with just how sensitive his ears were. he just had to get by. the noise of electricity, traffic lights down the road, the creaks of stairs all went straight to his head when he'd already been having a not so good day. frustration builds up easily and he's always tried to hide his anger.

this bear of a man, and the way he's had to police his reactions, expressions and speech. john's well aware of just how scary that can be to others. it's a give and take between being true to himself and trying not to harm others in the process. so he's gotten used bottling it up. tries not to make too many snippy comments at people and sometimes goes mute instead to avoid more problems.

a/n: if y'all know any good oral stim toys because literally that part was just my own pain. i use the fake cigs actually myself but i need ones to bite sigh

also, you guys don't know how much self control it took to not make an otherwise tame post include a sniffing kink about his body hair, another sigh

Some Personal BL Highlights of 2024

i made this post a year ago, so i'm going to do a retrospective this year, too! let's go! (i am including shows that started airing in 2023 but finished their run in 2024)

Best Show

i thought long and hard about this, but i think the title needs to go to century of love this year. this show knew exactly what it wanted to say, told its story without ever losing sight of the big picture, used every single minute of its runtime wisely and was just a wonderful experience overall.

Most Rewatchable Show And Best Main Couple

that said, jack & joker gripped me by the throat and hasn't let me go. is this show perfect? no. will i be obsessed with it for the foreseeable future? yes. this is definitely the most brainworms-inducing show of the year, and it has a very special place in my heart.

Best Sensuality

THAT SAID, i would be remiss if i didn't mention love sea anywhere near the best shows of the year, because whew! what an offering! the final battle in the sensuality bracket this year was yinwar vs fortpeat for me, and as much as i love and adore yinwar... fortpeat did That. so. yeah.

The Scene That Came For My Life The Most

uh, the fox spirit scene on century of love. need i say more? 😵‍💫

Best Premise (That Was Utterly Ruined By The Show)

congratulations, wandee goodday! this year, you had the chance to become one of my favorite shows, and then the actual plot was so badly written that i ended up not watching the final two episodes. this isn't even the largest bone i have to pick with p'golf this year, because among the new categories, i am introducing

Worst Sex Scene

... and the rebound has got this one in the bag. it's not even so bad it's good, no, it's just dumb! this show is also the reason why going forward, i won't watch anything made by p'golf anymore, which is an achievement in and of itself, i guess?

Best Side Couple

moving on to greener pastures, who could forget jj and methas bickering on this love doesn't have long beans? their enemies to lovers storyline was everything to me.

Most Beautiful Brown Eyes

one thing i can say for wandee goodday, i had to make this category for my man podd, because that one shot of him in the sunlight? yeag. gave me immediate psychic damage because he was too beautiful. absolutely incomprehensibly beautiful brown eyes. that one shot has lived in my brain rent free for months now and i still think about it regularly.

Best Confession Scene

battle of the writers was a fascinating mess of a show, and as much as none of the plot made any sense, they somehow managed to write the best confession scene ever conceived for pie and ozone. i wish i could recommend this show just for that, but no, i really can't.

Most Poetic Cinema

hands down, peaceful property episode 7 should go down in gmmtv history as the best and most tragically poetic story ever told. once again, forcebook showed us the kind of magic they can do when they are given a good script, and i for one am awaiting melody of secrets with baited breath.

Most Unhinged Watching Experience

this list would not be complete without mentioning pit babe. was pit babe "good"? i honestly don't know. but it was definitely wild. it was so much goddamn fun watching this from week to week and definitely one of my favorite watching experiences of the whole year.

Best Toxic Yaoi

where 2023 lacked toxic yaoi, 2024 gave us a beautiful tableau of toxicity that i enjoyed immensely. the highlight i want to point out here is my stand-in, although the runners-up dead friend forever and 4 minutes deserve to be mentioned as well.

Best Actor

i feel the need to include this category this year because fuaiz thanawat just blew me away. out of all the great performances in the aforementioned toxic yaoi, he truly stood out as the young actor to watch. rumour has it that he and jjay are going to headline their own show soon (-ish?), and i am absolutely thrilled at the prospect! fuaiz deserves the world. he is just absolutely brilliant.

Wildest BL Moment

uh, nude uncensored dick on 4 minutes. i literally still cannot believe they did that. once again, boc is out there casually redefining the limitations of the genre.

Most Anticipated Show Of 2025

somehow, still my golden blood??? i have been waiting for this show for OVER A YEAR NOW, and i NEED IT 😭😭😭😭 thank god this is actually going to air soon, otherwise i might implode.
