#and also they remind me of the movies I used to watch

[ryewwww]

Hi! Are you taking requests right now? If so, can you do one with older neighbor eren: baby trapping, dry humping, blindfold, face slapping

-> yes, requests are open!! (send me some juicy ones with lots of details)

-> I also just want to remind people that I don’t write sub!eren!!! (This is not towards this anon, I’m just saying in general so you know!!)

⚠️: NONCON, Corruption, manipulative!Eren, dry humping, use of blindfold, face slapping, baby trapping, breath control, squirting

Read at your own risk. I am not responsible for your media consumption.

Your parents were very conservative and kept you sheltered from the real world.

Their ideologies is what drove most of their families to stop talking to them

So it’s always just been the three of you

But it was okay—you were okay with it

They were excellent parents, bought you whatever you wanted and never yelled at you

They raised you to be good, and you were

Naive, sweet and selfless. Helping your elderly neighbours with their Facebook accounts and fixing all their internet problems.

You did good in school too, straight A student but your parents didn’t allow you to do extracurricular. They didn’t want you out of the house late.

They also had strict social media rules and a time limit on your phone—even after you turned 18.

But they paid for it, you lived under their roof so you had no choice but to obey.

When your elderly neighbor passed away, their house went on sale and a young guy from the church you frequented bought it.

You’d seen him around and heard about him through your dad. They often talked at church. He was in his mid thirties, divorced, no children. Came to town to start a new life, just wanting to be content.

His name was Eren, and he was easy on the eyes.

You’d be lying if you said he didn’t make you feel heated. You felt terrible for feeling that way, but when he’d talk to you, pay attention to you like you were the only girl in the world, it made you pretty feral.

It didn’t help that he often leaned into your delusions. He’d “accidentally” brush against your ass while trying to get some water. Or at church, his hand would slide between your inner thighs mindlessly.

You never spoke up, too ashamed to admit that it made you aroused.

Eren charmed his way to your parent’s good side. Your dad was best friends with him, which meant he was over at your house a lot. Nearly every evening, he’d join you for dinner and would stay for a beer or two afterwards with your dad.

Point is, your parents trusted him.

So, when your dad’s father passed away, they asked Eren to stay over and watch over you.

You couldn’t go with your parents because you had school, and found it bizarre that they didn’t trust you to stay home alone.

You tried to defend yourself but your dad was already in a tough place. So you let it slide.

Your parents leave, embracing you one last time while telling you to good, and to listen to Eren.

“I’m not a child, mom. I’ll be fine. Have a safe flight.”

They lug their bags out, start the car and leave.

You were about to go back to your room until Eren spoke, “you wanna get some pizza?”

“Um, sure.”

“Cool.”

God, you don’t know why it was so awkward. So you scurry back to your room to escape the tension.

When the pizza arrives, he calls you down. You go, grab 2 slices before heading back up stairs.

“Where you going? Let’s watch a movie or something. Is this house you treat your guest?”

He was teasing, but you were a bit embarrassed. You softly apologize, sitting at the edge of the couch, while he sat down right next to you.

Your heartbeat was ridiculously fast as you watched him turn on a horror movie before sitting back and munching on his pizza.

You hated horror—your parents would never let you watch this kind of shit in the first place.

But you were meek, too afraid to speak up because Eren seemed to be enjoying it.

For most of the movie you hid under the blanket. But during the scary parts he pried it away forcing you to watch.

You closed your eyes, plugged your ears and he laughs while tickling you to look

The whole thing left you in a compromising position

You were laid on your back, breathless. Your tits were pushed up, nearly slipping out your tank top. Your shorts had moved down a bit, exposing a little bit of your baby pink, cotton underwear.

Eren’s above you, taking in how you look beneath him, his cock growing harder by the second.

He stares for a moment before leaning down and kissing you. He’s impatient, ripping your tank top into two, lips attaching to your hard nipple.

The shorts are torn apart too, exposing the wet spot in the middle of your underwear.

His hands were quick, sliding in your underwear before sliding two fingers in

Your hips buck, hands coming up to grip his biceps

“You’re so fucking tight.” He hissed. “Let’s fix that, yeah?”

He pulls his sweats and boxers down in one motion and you panic (cuz of his huge cock).

You sit up, backing up a bit.

“Wait, wait I don’t think I’m ready for that.”

But he doesn’t back down. Are you kidding?

He pulls you back down and you yelp, pushing at his chest. He’s got you folded in half, giving him a perfect view of your glistening pussy

“Wait, I-I don’t”

“It’s okay, I’ll be gentle”

He hushes you, pushing his tip into you.

You squirm, crying at the stretch. “Please! I don’t wanna do this.”

Eren expected you to be a virgin. You were tight like one but when no blood leaked through, he roughly grabbed your neck, forcing you to look at him.

“Is this your first time?”

Your face burned in shame because it wasn’t. Back in high school, you were pressured to give your precious virginity to the popular boy.

You shook your head and he slaps you, making you sob harder.

“And here I was going easy on you. You’re a fucking whore. Does your daddy know you’ve disgraced yourself?”

From there, he had no mercy.

He waited long for this. Ever since he laid eyes on you, all he wanted to do was corrupt you.

He got close to your family, was your dad’s only friend. Isolating you was too easy—your parents had practically done it for him.

Now it was his time to take.

His pace increased, balls slapping against your ass. You can only cry. Eren was much bigger and stronger than you, there’s no way you could fight him off.

He held your body down, tightening the grip on your neck when you moved around too much.

Eren had no mercy on you. Not one ounce of remorse. He fucked you through each orgasm.

“Please slower! It hurts- it’s too much, please!” You whimper out but he backhands you hard.

“Shut the fuck up. I don’t wanna fucking hear you.”

His hand pressed down on your stomach so he could feel himself. He was in deep, tip pushing against your wall with each thrust.

He didn’t stop until he was satisfied.

You had passed out of exhaustion, head fuzzy because he was restricting your breathing

When you woke up, there was a blindfold on you. You were on your side and Eren was behind you.

His arms were wrapped around your body, keeping you close to him

You move frantically, trying to get the blindfold off, and it seemed to wake Eren.

He groaned, pulling you tighter against him before throwing his leg over yours and grinding his dick against your slit.

It’s enough to get him going so he quickly manhandles you to be on top of him, grinding his hardening cock against you.

You couldn’t help but moan. The tip of his cock was rubbing against your clit, and it left you wanting more.

Eren notices this of course, and ruts against you faster and when you respond by moving your hips, it was game over.

“Atta, girl. You fucking love this just as much as I do, don’t you?”

His cock slips in, you whimper but let him hold you against his chest. His hips move faster into you and you move with him, eager to release.

The room filled with filthy sounds, his grunting and your moaning until you squirted around him, soaking his pelvis and the bedsheets under.

Eren whistles before chuckling, “and you were fucking begging me to stop. Your pussy begs to differ, sweetheart.”

You definitely weren’t in your right mind, but Eren was so big, the way he filled you to the brim had you seeing stars

“Take the blindfold off. I can’t see anything.” You whine, breathlessly.

“That’s the whole point, baby.”

He doesn’t take it off, instead pulls you down for a kiss before flipping your position. He’s got you on your back, thighs pressed into your chest.

He pushed in again, hips snapping into you, desperate for another release.

At this point your thighs are shaking, and you’re throbbing down there. It was a new feeling, it hurt but felt good at the same time so you didn’t know what to think of it.

Eren’s pace was ruthless. He had pretty good stamina plus, making a mess of you, it kept his dick pretty fucking hard.

The weekend was filled with filthy fucking.

When I tell you he fucked you all over the house, I goddamn mean it.

Kitchen, living room, shower, closet, the fucking laundry room. He had you outside, legs spread as he fucked you on a lawn chair.

He was pounding into your pussy, rubbing your clit while saying, “gonna marry you, baby. Make you my wife, knock you full with my kids. How does that sound?”

“N-no! My parents would-ah! Eren!” Your fingers flew to his hair, legs shaking as you came around him.

He slaps you, “you don’t have a fucking choice. Unless you wanna disgrace your family name by having a child before marriage.”

You rubs your clit before bottoming out and cumming inside you again. You shake, as he pulls another orgasm from you

“When your parents come back, we’ll ask for their blessing, yeah?”

Hope you liked it <3 sorry for any mistakes 😵‍💫

OK finished rewatching all of SU from og series to movie to future and thoughts below:

My feelings on the show are overall positive. My enjoyment was stronger than my grievances for sure and I was just reminded about how much I love the concept of gem society. To me, they read as like this pseudo ai-robotic race that over the course of thousands and thousands of years, began to gain emotion and desire outside of their basic programming. That's why I think it never exactly works comparing Homeworld to other oppressive empires in cartoons because they're more like literal cogs in a never ending machine who can work for an eternity doing the same thing without tiring out. Like the gems are machines! They're machines who haven't been told they can dream because they never saw the need to sleep. I really liked that theory where the gems were created by some other ancient race as a weapon but when the creators died out, the gems continued and developed this mega unending society yet also gaining full sentience.

I think that's the most frustrating aspect of the show where I'd love to see more exploration of homeworld and gem society overall but the structure of the show focuses elsewhere.

The biggest flaw the show has is when it allows itself to constantly make meta commentary that feels more like its responding to fandom opinions rather than genuine callbacks. The version of SU that the fandom had convinced itself of as well as the version that the later show criticizes doesn't actually exist to the extent either acts like it did. Take for example the constant jokes about people crying a lot. While watching the early seasons, it never felt that excessive- like people cried when the scene called for it whether to be comedic or dramatic. It justified when crying was used and through that it never felt unnecessary or a point of contention.

Like the later seasons and lot of things in Future felt torn between wanting to be self referential/responding to fandom/still sticking to the core values and earnestness the early seasons had. When it was the latter, it was the best because I enjoy sentimentality! I didn't care much for the creep of irony in some of the episodes. I just preferred Steven most when he was being silly and heartfelt with it over making the millionth "my mom caused a galactic space war but I'm mentally fine!" comment.

id write more but i have to register for courses uh. byeee

[spop-romanticizes-abuse]

i have defended steven universe a lot here, particularly from some unfair and nonsensical "criticism", but it's time to talk about some of the things that i DIDN'T like about steven universe.

that episode where amethyst shapeshifts into rose to terrorize greg. what the fuck was that? and the fact that they don't address it afterwards makes it even worse. don't write in incredibly dark stuff, if you're just gonna brush it under the rug like “don't worry kids, greg and amethyst just had a little fight, that's all”.

that time when sadie got mad at lars after she stranded him on an island on purpose so that she could spend time with him. i swear, this show had the wildest subplots and they brush past it like it's nothing. at least lars and sadie don't get together in the end, it's honestly better that way.

lapis. just.. lapis.

peridot's character progression. don't get me wrong, her redemption arc was amazing, probably the best in this show. but after that, she's just reduced to goofy sidekick?? this is especially insulting when peridot is an actually skilled and useful member of the crystal gems - she's good with tech, she knows a lot about the homeworld - and they still reduce her to the comic relief.

speaking of, GIVE. PERIDOT. HER. LIMB ENHANCERS. BACK. those were her mobility aid, she needed them to function like a regular peridot! she clearly had a lot of difficulty moving around and doing things without her limb enhancers, but clearly the message here was “you're perfect as you are”. this is like a different version of the glow-up trope in every teen movie, where the girl's glasses is removed so that she can be blind but confident. /s

also speaking of, amethyst encouraging peridot to talk shit about everyone else but getting offended when peridot insulted her was incredibly hypocritical, and it's ridiculous that peridot had to apologize for it.

the diamonds' redemption, of course, i don't think i need to explain why i dislike it. yes, it's good that steven didn't forgive them but this issue goes beyond steven. the diamonds hurt everyone, but they're still rulers of the homeworld. yes, they changed but they could easily go back to being dictators any time they wished. especially since they never got punished for any of their actions. sure, you don't need to kill them off but at least imprison them or take away their powers or something???

spinel being adopted by the diamonds. you're telling me the creators wrote a sympathetic and relatable villain who has abandonment issues and trauma, only to hand her over to The Abusers™ because she reminded them of their victim? yikes.

so yeah. steven universe has a special place in my heart because it's the first queer show i ever watched, and also the first animated series with such a deep and interesting storyline. but i'm still not one to glorify everything about it because i'm well aware that it had its fair share of problematic stuff too.

[sillysoliloquyshits]

I really really need to get this out of my chest now but before I even watched Ne Zha 2 I had a feeling that the reason why it's exploding is because so many people resonate with the messages of the movie and by God it obviously did. I did talk about healthy masculinity and all but what I feel the movie really resonates more strongly is this:

Resisting against evil will always win.

(More Ne Zha 2 spoilers and believe me when I say Lu Tong's many arrows remind me of missiles and drone attacks by God it was terrifying seeing and hearing them at first)

But while it's a movie of all ages mainly targeted to kids, Ne Zha 2 is extremely relevant in reflecting this current hunger-games world where the working class marmots are like innocents dragged into ICE camps because they don't fit the green card standard, spirits who still side the green card assholes because out of survival and hypocrisy with internalized racism, and the petrifying censorships and arrests we face that reduce our numbers in resistance. Maybe it's just me overthinking the parallels but come on, China won't know much about American struggles but maybe it's fate that Ne Zha 2 really came at the right time to remind us what's most important in this time. We are surrounded by too many Wuliangs in the world.

When I first watched the movie I really felt that moment to my bones when all the sea creature spirits and Ao Guang and Li Jing gathered their strength to push Ne Zha and Ao Bing up to break the cooking cauldron. The strong collectivism is very symbolic of China's collectivism and teamwork in times of hardship which makes them a more unified country, and suffice to say maybe this was what the creative team really felt when they put their soul in animating and voicing and playing the music for this movie, to break their cauldron of limits and burst into the box office realm for China.

But as a Pro-Palestinian myself, I see this not just as a loose reference as China vs America's and the western oppression, of we see the enemy as US and other f@scist/zi0nist oppressors. The trappings of the cauldron to anyone who resits or doesn't obey by the oppressors' rule really remind me of the Palestinian resistance and so many other resistance movements in the world, like the LGBTQIA+ resistance and Black people and Latin Americans and Indigenous peoples and Asian Americans (BIPOC in general) in US and around the world, and the Lebanese and the Ukrainians and Sudanese and South Sudanese and Yemeni and Haitian and DRC people and Ugyhers and so many more-

The director Jiao Zi once said that he believes there is a rebellious and righteous Ne Zha in all of us, and he's right. This world is dystopian already and it's very normal to be overwhelmed and melt in the pressure, but the movie still provides us the hope we all need for our freedoms. And it's not just refreshing, it's extremely invigorating to the soul. (That's why people keep coming back to cinemas to watch-)

If we keep at it despite the heat, the cauldron will break. The Wuliangs of the world will have their skulls and stupid ass green cards cracked under our kicks. I've also recently read somewhere that fascism relies on forced compliance, and whether you're out protesting or quietly doing something to help out of self preservation, as long as you're focused on our common enemy and don't back down, our efforts will come to fruition somehow. The Wuliangs obviously can't fall immediately, but we can keep kicking cracks.

Tldr: if you see the breaking cauldron as a symbol of china starting to win US and the west, might as well see it as a strong symbol of resistance against worsening oppression in the world.

No one is free until everyone is free.

darthspockvader: okay that one kinda hurts my heart, but it's fine. i guess i can get over it [he chuckled.] though can't say i've ever tried it with whiskey. i had a friend once and her dad used to always drink cinnamon tea with tequila whenever he felt under the weather. guy swore that shit was some magic remedy. maybe he's on to something...who knows. darthspockvader: aw don't be so hard on yourself. i'm just a bit hungry right now, otherwise i would just do it classic style. nothing wrong with a plain grilled cheese, s. do you slap some garlic butter in there too? darthspockvader: [he smiled, relaxing a bit.] yeah, you're right. just keep the news on in the background just in case. i'll make sure to wear a vader mask during my date so when they ask you questions and you mention vader they'll know exactly who to look for. [he laughs a bit at the mental image of it all.] if my date can't accept me in my true vader form, are they even the one for me? [he joked, laughing a bit more, before taking a bite of his grilled cheese again.] darthspockvader: over five years...but let's just say five to make myself feel better. aw, you know, it wasn't a bad break up or anything. the guy was actually a good thing for me, helped me take life a little more by the horns...for lack of better words at the moment. it was just the ending of our time together type shit, ya know? [he chuckles at the darren comment, shaking his head bit.] ah...i don't know if marriage is for me, man. maybe. who knows. darren is living the dream for us all. darthspockvader: [he can't help but to play along for just a moment, playfully smirking on his end of the mic.] yeah, i did, s. do you want me to send you one too? [he waits a couple of seconds before lightly laughing and taking another bite of his grilled cheese.] fine, fine. you got me. i've never sent a dick pic before, but in my defense...no one has ever asked. i guess. darthspockvader: no, man! [the excitement in his voice is clear in the way he begins to talk about the movie, thinking he is about to introduce his buddy to a awesome new flick.] shaun of the dead! i mean, dawn of the dead is good too. but yeah, pretty much, it's a spoof on dawn of the dead. it's hilarious, s! it so many classic quotes like, you ready for it? fuck-a-doodle-do. [he snorts.] remind me to shout that shit in our next match. and, also, i guess if you want you can invite darren to this watch party. you busy this upcoming sunday?

schr0ding3r: yeah, no. i can't drink tea. also tried it with whiskey. still no. schr0ding3r: oh, wow. fancy grilled cheese, then. yeah, i fuck with grilled cheese. what's not to like? probably can't make it as good as you, though. mine is just cheese and bread. like a pleb. schr0ding3r: hey, that's okay. [he tries to sound reassuring and encouraging] let's hope it doesn't come to that. [even if it does, he can only imagine what the investigation will be like when he knows neither victim nor suspect. he probably wouldn't be able to give the police a name, either. but he's not about to ask. the mystery is one of the things that keeps their friendship interesting.] schr0ding3r: five years... [he whistles wistfully] sorry to hear about that, though. but at least you got out of somethin' that wasn't good for you anymore. nothin' wrong with being single. i mean, just look at darren. and he's married. now, look at him. [he chuckles] i'm kidding. schr0ding3r: well, maybe leila just knows that you'll do anything for her. you spoiled her and she's lovin' every second of it. schr0ding3r: well, did you send dick pics or did you not? [there's an almost menacing tone to his voice, like he's daring vader to say he did send pictures.] schr0ding3r: shaun of the dead? you mean dawn of the dead? [he has, in fact, seen shaun of the dead and the two other movies that came after it in the cornetto trilogy, but it's more interesting to pretend that he doesn't know a damn thing about it.] what is it, some kind of spoof movie?

[sysig]

Ellen McLain’s commentary from my trivia playthrough

[pondererswandererswonders]

This started off as a neat little fun idea and nothing more, but my autism decided to finally take matters into its own hands.

A RoTTMNT playlist heavily inspired by the fanfic, "Mutant Ninja Midlife Crisis" by a_platypus; among different works like Trial & Error and Odd Man Out. Songs have been placed in specific order to MNMC, but can be enjoyed on shuffle as a general Rise playlist. TCEST DNI.

@mutantninjamidlifecrisis

I looked at other playlists to see common themes and songs that are enjoyed by the average Rise fan, while also looking all over creation for songs that I thought would best fit MNMC specifically. I ended up finding a couple of awesome GVF songs along the way, that I'm genuinely surprised no one has used for anything remotely related to Rise?

Not a lot of future-Leo-goes-back-to-the-past type of playlists, but I really suck at finding things, so it's not like there isn't a lot out there. But anyway, I was a bit afraid that this playlist would be ooc for the fanfic because of my song choices? So, it kind of took me a while to make the actual playlist on Spotify, let alone make this post. But I know I'm simply overthinking it. It's the perfectionism talking.

Most of the songs have lyrics that align with major key points of the Rise movie and the fanfic, but other songs I also put there solely for the ✨vibes✨ and instrumentals really. I am still adding songs here n' there every so often, but I do plan on eventually cutting myself off from the playlist.

I was going for a "soundtrack" or "songs that sound like they belong in movies" type of feel for the whole thing, which I think I did okay on, but it kind of slowly turned more into a playlist where you can make cool animations or AMVs to; especially since this is not a listen-while-you-read type of playlist, because there's too much going on with the music in general.

Overall, just something I made out of appreciation that I think turned out okay.

[lemonadeslice]

hello i may be coming to the end of my reserves of sibling horror movies that i can draw vague thematic through-lines through! i would love suggestions if anyone has more!

ideally they'd be stories where the focus is on the siblings' relationship as opposed to just having siblings in, but i've bent the hell out of that rule myself, so tbh i'll accept anything. basket case is on my list. this is a lawless place.

[icewindandboringhorror]

It's always interesting to hear about people's weird/unexpected "alternate life paths". Like, something that you could have done with your life, a job you almost took, a school you almost went to, etc - that was still actually realistic enough that it could have happened, but NOW it seems to not suit your current personality.

Like for example, I currently hate advertising (how manipulative it is, brands trying to be 'relatable', social media amplifying it to an obnoxious extreme, etc.) so much that even seeing a little ad before a youtube video is grating to even witness, but there was a point in time where I was genuinely seriously considering going into marketing/making commercials as a career lol. Or like, I have a relative who was very inclined to be a pastor when they were younger, even though today they're a super strong atheist, etc. etc.

[someoneintheshadow456]

Me in my teens-20s writing romantic fanfiction of my blorbos and self-inserts:

The relationship always needs to coincide with The Plot. Without The Plot, there's no reason for the MCs to fall in love.

The main characters should always have similar backstories, because when No Plot is going on, that should be the thing that bonds them. Only people with very similar backstories can understand each other, after all.

Boss/Second in Command is the Best Trope to make the MCs love each other because they will always be in the action/hot seat and in close proximity. Two Equally Good Fighters on Opposite Sides is a close second.

The LIs have to be each other's "firsts" for the relationship to be truly meaningful. Otherwise, when they have sex it isn't "special."

Grown adults, especially ones embroiled in A Plot(TM), don't fight with each other over inter-personal BS. If there is a relationship misunderstanding, The Plot has to drive it. And even if there is inter-personal nonsense, adults resolve it by having an Ephiphany moment/speech and then back to Plot. That scene in Star Trek Into Darkness where Uhura fights with Spock for not showing his feelings pissed me off so badly that I will correct it in every romance I write.

The LI can't just love the MC for No Reason or just because of their personality. The MC had to have done something for the LI to Earn that love, and done so consciously. You get people to love you through showing your competency and making them respect you, so that they have a reason to keep you in their lives.

TLDR - Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahi (Ugly Betty) is the best Female LI/Self Insert template, and the best Relationship Template in general. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Childhood friends-lovers sucks because you always have to show the mains as not changing since they were kids. It can work however if the mains were Not Cringe even as kids. In the Real World, Childhood Doesn't Count as you are a completely different person afterwards.

When it's a gay relationship, homophobia should be a factor in the conflict if the story takes place before 2010/something 2010-esque. Otherwise it's not realistic.

Me now, older, wiser, and with more interpersonal experience, writing DAI F!Treveylan/Josephine Fanfiction:

Okay let's yeet half of these notions/tropes and subvert the other half of them to hell. Because now I know that this is Not How Relationships Actually Work, and workplaces/organizations/military settings are actually an utterly trash place to build inter-personal relationships period. So The Plot actually can't be the core/foundation of a real romance.

*starts plotting/writing*

...realises that I just wrote Elsanna (minus the incest) 2: Thedas Boogaloo.

[askdacast]

I just watched Shin KR today finally

It is the very embodiment of "Hideaki Anno playing with his KR action figures with sick flips and action noises" and I mean that as a compliment

[cxra-melty]

I love him so much

Talking about the movie so spoilers in the tags!!!

[mozart-the-meerkitten]

Okay, after rewatching Phineas and Ferb Across the Second Dimension, which came out in 2011, I need to know if the first Avengers movie- which came out in 2012- copied it, or if it was just a weird coincidence that both movies have an interdimensional portal with a seemingly endless evil army coming out of it set on the top of a weird looking building in the middle of a city that they have to fly up and close after a showdown with the villain?

[wolf-twenty-one]

are you being challenged? are you trying new things and getting new experiences? are you different from who you were 5 years ago? are you compromising? are you seeing things from another perspective regularly? are you getting better?

are you stagnating? are you prioritising comfort? are surrounding yourself with people and places that let you stay in place? have you compromised recently? are you aware that yours is not the only way?

[todayisafridaynight]

Hey so Snap this is going to be so fucking weird, but honestly don’t care. So I was watching a clip of Drag Race Philippines and it was the make over episode and I think they were making over family members and this father was all about getting into drag. So, I just wanted to tell you never forget how much of a lovely loving kind and caring father you have, who loves you and protects you and makes you feel heard. That’s all.

i'd have to die before i forget how great my dad is thank you for the opportunity to brag about him again anon

[fennthetalkingdog]

Man, talking to people that aren't buried in queer and furry culture like I am is such a good way to keep myself grounded. Like, one of my friends just asked me what a catboy or dogboy was (I made bead bracelets a long time ago saying those) and that gave me the chance to stop and think what I want those terms to mean for myself. Sometimes it's cool to have someone who just knows and understands, but other times it's super cool having folk around me that don't get it first try, no matter how weird that might sound to say.
