#and my tags are gonna be whack

[osamucide]

if this bothers anyone they can kindly feel free to leave or ignore it or whatever but can we stop flooding the x reader tags with half-baked thinkpieces on why people should or shouldn’t do whatever with their writing. every other post is “you shouldn’t romanticize [x]” “you’re problematic if you do [x]” “stop writing about [x]” “[x] is gross and if you write about it kill yourself” how about if you don’t like certain content you heed the content warnings, block the tags, don’t interact with it, so on and so forth. of course part of our responsibility as writers, especially ones dealing with sensitive topics, is to label and tag our works appropriately but let’s be real—i hardly see any writers (at least within the bsd fandom) who don’t make it abundantly clear what they do/do not write about, interact with, or tolerate. wait until you find out how much fucked up shit happens in real life and how much some person on the internet coping with their trauma by writing self insert fanfiction about a cartoon character doesn’t fucking correlate to the perpetuation of that fucked up shit at all. it doesn’t even have to be that serious. people are going to write and read the content they want and they’re allowed to and you spilling your complaints all over the x reader tags “to boost attention” isn’t gonna change that. if you don’t like something ignore, unfollow, block, mind your own business. it’s actually super easy

FIRST POST OF 2024 AND ITS GONNA BE SOME LOVERS LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[thanks-obillma]

sketch dump pt. 3: character refs

notes typed out under the read more:

Vito (mostly me just trying to figure out his hair and brainstorm his wardrobe):

sticky up bits (like Mike, adds volume)

a lot longer than normal, can't really do the sideswept top thing, mostly just back

front hair swoops

stray bits to help cover scar, like Mal + Mike

Wardrobe: slim jeans, cuffed, holes or not depending on level [of fanciness]. boots, gothified (Mal + him share them). solid t-shirts (no graphics, maybe like race tees), muscle tanks OR. open hanging shirts. leather jacket as he gets older

Manitoba's headspace design, aka doodle w/ notes:

round face, a little stubble (teenage boy's first beard style)

locs ponytail (hasn't always been like that)

noticeable vitiligo

slim shoulders, wide hips

packs (big dick energy)

baggy cargo pants/shorts to hide hips

carabiners + pouches

wears Scott's clothes in headspace too

flat chest

Mal + Mike:

match the body most, "twins", designs and styles grow more different as they get older

Zoey redesign (sorta?) (also just hair notes):

kinda ragged, she cut it herself

about to have 18 gender crisises

bangs actually decent (she can see what she's doing)

is not doing all that in a strapless top

hairtie then scrunchie for the *Aesthetic*

very blunt ends

knows a lot of botany, can + will rant about flowers

Svet (more hair notes):

Mal's bangs split down the middle-ish, hides sideburns mostly

swept back rest of hair like Vito w/o the grease

longish in the back

takes a LOT of effort to tie/clip/contain for competitions

Echoes of the Past

[bismuthburnsblue]

this is a wip

things never fit Bunty the way they fit me

but:

heres Ginny's vest!! ah im so happy with how its coming out!!!! i dont think theres anything i need to change from the mock up, which is nice :) i should be able to trim off all the excess ive left & finish the seams, with oneeeeee exception;

when i came to look at the yoke piece this morning (the top piece on the back) i noticed its a little bit off grain. i had to cut it on the opposite grain already for width reasons and i. cannot stop seeing it. i think i just barely have enough denim to recut it if i really squeeze, so should i? do you guys think its noticable?

also the embroidery. dont look too close at it, its still a wip, buuut. i think im gonna eek it 5mm further down, i dont like how close to the top it is so much.

but!!!!!! adjustments aside! wow im really happy with how this is coming out :D

[gothsuguru]

getting an iced pumpkin chai in the morning and then my personal goal is to spend the whole day writing and i hope i can come back to this post tomorrow and rb w how much progress i’ve made!!!

[prettypangolins]

tags and searches are just, like... pages of this shit (this was a search for 'vampire' sorted by link and latest, but this is happening all over the site)

[ID: a screenshot of tumblr search results. all the visible posts are links to sites with a picture of a young woman as the link preview, and a woman's name 1+8 and then a string of random letters and numbers as the link title. The posts are dated the 25th of March and have random, unrelated tags beneath the post. The profile pictures of all the bot accounts are women, with random non-sensical blog urls. END ID]

If you see a spam bot post PLEASE REPORT IT AS SPAM.

(The other strain that seems more deeply entrenched as it's harder to find but always has hundreds or a few thousand notes are the ones that link to sites that generally have a porn-related words on them but with punctuation breaking up the words and accents on the vowels.)

[i-am-beckyu]

i have visions of lies and the thieves (lattt?)!tommy like begging of wilbur to let him have all of his borrower stuff. wilbur can't stop the fashion grind even as a borrower and tommy wants to take advantage of it >:)

OR OR!!,,, tommy just totally bullies wilbur for being so adamant about keeping a fashion sense as a borrower but he secretly poses in their makeshift mirror with all of wil's massive collection of trench coats and turtlenecks sdjdsvjcn

idk how accurate this is to the story or if wilbur can even sew at all in the fic but still my visions are so strong i must share them with ya' >:3

— brick

Lol really? That’s awesome! And ayooo? Thoughts on LATTTT is awesome!!!!

I never overly thought about the clothes I kinda just have this image of c!wilbur in his trench coat and yellow sweater for like every version of borrower Wilbur so he definitely keeps his fashion sense.

I’d say he was wearing the first time he met Tommy small as they’re just normal clothes and then kinda learns from Tommy later that he made his clothes and decides that he definitely needs to make some to not make Tommy suspicious.

But I think it would be hilarious if he like attempts to make clothes and they’re just shit and fall apart so he goes to his friend Nicki and asks her to make some handmade clothes, and presents her with similar clothes he likes to keep his style.

She’s just confused but obliges lol

AND THEN we go to Tommy later finding this out and making fun of him. And YESSSS I adore the thought of Tommy just secretly trying everything on.

I recon Wilbur would probably end up just letting Tommy keep it all because he wouldn’t need to wear it anymore so Tommy would 100% raccoon store it and then Wilbur would find it and get pissed for wrinkles on the fabrics lol

This are so perfect Brick! Love it when you share your brain thoughts with me! We get more brain thought!!! :3❤️

[xenon-demon]

cruel and unusual to make me pick between when you come back, it's gravity (kas!steve au) and boathouse wall slam 2: roleplay boogaloo so i simply shan't please tell me about both.

[also don't worry i also didn't make my wip wednesday word count bc apparently grieving makes it hard to function. or something. (but also sometimes life just Happens. it's fandom, no one's paying us for this shit 💜)]

Read you're amazing and I appreciate you so much <3 You are more than welcome to ask me about as many things as you'd like!!

[also thank you very much for the kind words & reminder not to take fandom shit so seriously it becomes stressful itself 💙 I hope you're doing a bit better now (since it's been a hot second since you sent this ask), life really does just fucking suck sometimes, huh?]

Paging @sidekick-hero who also asked me about boathouse wall slam; seeing as both of you asked about the same two fics, I'll use this ask to talk about boathouse wall slam and the other one to talk about gravity!

boathouse wall slam 2: roleplay boogaloo

Okay first of all this DOES actually have a title - strange love (won’t you give it to me?) - but I love the placeholder meme title way too much to change the file name. There's also about 2.5k words written in this document, but many of those words are Horny and thus I do not feel comfortable sharing them lmao

Also my "can't shut the fuck up" disease struck again SO this is going under a cut (which is also probably not a bad thing considering I'm talking about sex lmao)

AS THE MEME TITLE IMPLIES this is about Steve having Many Thoughts about Eddie shoving him up against the wall of Reefer Rick’s boathouse, to the point where he eventually caves and asks Eddie (his boyfriend of ~2 months, after about that much time again of fooling around together as friends) if he’d be willing to re-enact that moment with him. But this time they won’t have an audience. Because it's a sex roleplay. The surface level concept for this fic is just a smutty pwp revolving around re-enacting The Wall Slam™, because neither Steve nor the audience were being normal about that when it happened. The roleplay set-up was going to be something like Eddie just chilling and smoking out in the boathouse undisturbed (because Reefer Rick skipped town after Vecna was defeated, so the place is now unoccupied), Steve "accidentally" stumbling across him, Eddie thinking "oho the popular jock is here to beat me up, I'd better make the first move before he can" and throwing Steve up against a wall only to find Steve Really Likes Being Manhandled, and he's suggesting they maybe have a little fun with each other instead? (This part would not require much acting from Steve.) The roleplay aspect of it is basically them reaching back for their high school personas and acting as if they'd gotten into this situation with each other whilst still in school, before they became friends and certainly before they had any history together.

The original version I started (and got 2.5k words into before realising I wouldn't feel comfy posting it anywhere lol) was written... around this time last year? Like 10-12 months ago? And so it was very much coloured by the prevailing Fandom Opinions & Content™ at the time, aka this was a sub!bottom!Steve and dom!top!Eddie affair (with that being the Prevailing Pattern of their relationship thus far in the fic). I wasn't writing them as having an Official Established Dynamic™, I was just writing it as Steve having an inherent tendency to be submissive/give up control to Eddie during sex. Steve's nerves around asking Eddie about this particular fantasy are just due to Steve being nervous to ask for what he wants; he's not worried at all about asking Eddie to be a bit rough/dominant with him because really, They Do That Anyway.

While I don't think there's anything inherently wrong with approaching this concept (or Steddie!) like that, and I'll still read pretty much any flavour of Steddie (ultimately I think they're switches/vers, and also I don't care that much about who's in what position as long as they're in character), the way I view them & their dynamic has definitely changed since I came up with this concept. THEREFORE, here is how I would approach it if I were to write this as a oneshot now:

They're still newly dating at the start of the fic (only a month or two in), except the prevailing pattern of the relationship so far is service top/soft dom!Steve & bottom/ever so slightly sub!Eddie. This is mainly because a) that's what they're used to from previous partners, and b) Steve's got some Issues around giving up control in bed/feeling like he's not doing enough to please his partner (aka "I must prove my worth sexually or else they'll lose interest in me").

Steve has, however, been plagued with visions of Eddie throwing him around the boathouse like he was a small twig, and he is very quickly losing his sanity about it. Eddie could absolutely manhandle Steve the way Steve manhandles Eddie, if he wanted to. If Steve let him.

After a couple months of dating Eddie, Eddie can tell something's up, so he asks about it. Steve cracks like an egg the moment Eddie asks, confessing he keeps thinking about The Wall Slam. Eddie - who has already sniffed out Steve's issues around being Enough and Worthy for his partner - asks if he'd like them to recreate that moment. Steve agrees (while blushing so red he looks like a tomato).

CUE THE ROLEPLAY SMUT. This proceeds pretty much the same as the original version, complete with sub!bottom!Steve & dom!top!Eddie, but this version of Eddie is a much softer dom & this Steve takes a bit longer to really get into the swing of things. After the smut they have a cute little heart-to-heart about how Eddie's not going to leave Steve just because he wants a turn being looked after for once, and that Steve is going to make more of an effort to prioritise his own wants and needs sometimes.

Essentially, were I to write this now, I'd make it a smutfic character study of Steve & how he has issues around being vulnerable and letting Eddie take care of him, instead of him taking care of Eddie all the time. You know how it is, you go to write porn and it ends up growing legs and also a deep emotional core about the relationship between characters and their psychological issues.

Send me an ask about my WIPs!

[whack-patty]

Babysat some kids and we did some VERY important collaborations...

"He's tasting it" "what does it taste like?" "Blueberries"

"I poked his eye dark." "are you being mean to him?" "Yes, because he likes it."

"He likes roses"

"What's that?" "His belly button. He doesn't like shirts." "Oh, why?" "He's holding a snack. No. Yes. He's holding two snacks. One two."

And some final snorps with no commentary attached

9 people you’d like to get to know better

Thanks for the tag @timbitshockey bc I too love to ramble about nothing! It’s one of my defining traits

last song: yesterday i drove 6 hours home from visiting friends on a drive i do bimonthly if not monthly at this point and as usual i just toss like ten albums on the queue and cruise. in this scenario i like to leave the city mellow, build up a bit and really kick it in the depths of the drive, and then mellow back out once I’m safely close enough to home that I know I won’t fall asleep on the dark depths of the rural 50mph two lane where it’s just me and the big trucks on a Sunday night. and then i also had to go pick my friend up at the airport at 2 am. ALL OF THIS TO SAY that my last song is you’re gonna go far off of the new deluxe version of noah kahans stick season which is one of my faves of the new songs. as a new englander who left and then came back shout out to noah for that whole album for real.

currently watching: i really need to finish ted lasso bc I literally have two episodes left. about to start watching the bear season 2 with my roommate and am rubbing my little hands together about that!

currently reading: I just finished priestdaddy by patricia lockwood which I actually think I got recced from an ask rocky answered and was SO GOOD. as someone who was raised catholic but in a very loose my parents were doing it for their parents way and once we were old enough to complain about church taking up our weekends we quit going, it was a hilarious read without the more serious bits cutting too hard. next on the docket is lessons in chemistry which my mother has given me and told me made her laugh out loud many times so we shall see!

current obsession: the absolute high of it being summer. the ability to Sit On My Porch and read and people watch and drink a cider. rollerblading. everything is ALIVE and i am too. I’m inhaling the fumes of summer like an 11 year old huffing glue. on a different note, my friend just looked up at me and said “I think we should become professional darts players. I think it could be lucrative… and fun” and that’s a direct quote so stay tuned for if that garners any momentum in my life…

Ok um i’m sorry to be this person and I feel bad titling this correctly but I actually am not going to tag anyone bc I think everyone I thought of has been tagged in the few iterations I’ve seen sooo if you haven’t been tagged consider this your call to arms!

[demonio-fleurs]

the only plus side to it being allergy season is that when i get over emotional due to my hormone being out of whack + stress i can just go “hahah, my allergies are terrible!” instead of admitting the fact that ive broken down into tears like 3 times and counting today

[beardedhandstoadshark]

What’s your most proudest OC lore you’ve created?

Red! Courtesy of kiiiinda being the only one who has actual proper lore set in place that makes sense with their character traits and doesn’t feel too out there (given the setting anyways). AND there’s proper negative character traits here too!! Idk, thinks just tend to click when writing her :)

Everyone else has character traits down but whack backstories (Violet, Mage, Yel), only got their issues set (Deniz), has all of their lore actually just be general world building (the element girlies, iirc Ao was mentioned before but not Rika? The water and leaf cloak persons), or is basically just glorified cardboard (the rest lmao)

Writing is…definitely not my strong suit hahah…^^;
