I hate Jimmy but I like him in the fact that weâre supposed to genuinely hate every fiber of his being. I think the story tricks us into thinking heâs a good person, or at the very least a morally grey character, and itâs like the story itself shows annoyance toward it while also giving us a sense of sympathy for falling to the same manipulation that Jimmy puts others through. But that is only if we actually realize the truth.
it shows annoyance towards us as the player/viewer but saves its special hatred for Jimmy. Not us, Jimmy. Itâs annoyed that we show some kind of good will towards Jimmy before the silent reveal in the text that he assaulted Anya. Itâs like the game acts like how an actual person would realistically react to this stuff: the player/viewer glosses or barely acknowledges the aspect of rape (as many have while playing the game) and the game shows fury towards you. But if you piece everything together about the assault, then itâs like the rose-tinted glasses fully come off and you see the horrible situation for what it actually was, for who Jimmy truly is
the game is like a test for its player/audience.
do we gloss over the horrific actions of Jimmy, the smaller details in the conversations between Anya and Curly, and the context clues of what Jimmy did to Anya; and thus allow the game to show its righteous fury towards our incompetence
or
Do we realize the truth of everything, of the actions of our protagonist; actions that we were led to ignoring by the main character himself before learning about what heâs done to everyone on the Tulpar; and thus allow the game to still show sympathy towards us while also rightfully being frustrated and maybe even hating us still
in other words: Do you eventually see the tiny, dead pixel in the vastness of it all; or are you so used to seeing the bigger picture that it never crosses your mind until itâs too late
#blimbo rambles#the listerine game#sorry this is super fucking incoherent#I just have many thoughts on this game#this is what good media does to a guy this is why you need bad media to balance it out#I like the main character but not in a âI agree with everything heâs done and think itâs okayâ way#as much as people may want to state that about me#I âlikeâ him because heâs awful.

New idea: Rafe is friends with an autistic reader(female I apologize) mentions of good aversion, sensitivity to noise, swimming, masking.
"Is the food okay, dear?" Rose places a hand on your shoulder which you try to contain your uneasiness but you were a little weary of her and physical contact was something you were still getting use to so you tried your best to mask it.
You offer a smile and nod, "Oh yes, Mrs. Cameron it all looks so good I'm just-"
"She's autistic, Rose...I'll just bake her something else." Rafe speaks up, placing his napkin down and gets up from his seat and you felt heat rise to your cheeks as you didn't want Rose to feel offended or make anything awkward, "No! Rafe I-i can try it- look!" You almost clumsily pick up your fork, circling the spaghetti around your fork but then looks at it for a moment, the sauce seeming almost offensive towards you and you shake your head. "Yeah, no nevermind..I'm so sorry...I know you put so much effort into this I just-" you rambled on as your people pleaser tentacles start to kick in and you look around fanatically between Rose and the plate in front of you.
"Y/N for the love of God, shut up-its fine just come with me and I'll see what I can make for you- let's go." He snaps his fingers towards the door that leads inside and you sheepishly smile at Rose before rising out of your seat and walk inside.
Rafe follows, sliding the glass door closed and goes over to the freezer. "What would it be? Chicken nuggets and fries again?" He looks over at you, holding the handle to the freezer and you shrug, "I don't know kind of getting bored of that being a safe food." You say as you lean against the counter, feeling awful and like you were a nuisance towards him and his family. "But I can deal with it."
"Nonsense, I'll just keep looking. Hey, how about some apples and peanut butter? Both healthy and contain protein." He asks, opening a cabinet and looking around, moving things about.
You wave him off, "honestly I can wait...I can just go hole and order mcdonalds."
"McDonald's isn't exactly a healthy choice." He says and you shrug, "there's a Chinese place down by where I live."
"And I think you order so much that thats the reason they're still open."
You roll your eyes. "Really Rafe, I can just wait..."
"Then you'll get cranky from your blood sugar dropping and you'll start to get panicky...remember the last time? You kept hitting your head and I thought you were gonna have a concussion." He sighs, running his hand through his hair as he closes the cabinet, looking over at you.
"Whats up with you tism people and fast food?" He asks, walking over to you.
"Convient, you don't have to make it or stress for like 30 minutes looking for what may look good, and if you order from a place enough it's a no brainer on what to eat." You shrug as you explain.
"You need to have a home cooked meal at some point." He states, placing his hands on his hips and staring down at you.
You chuckle, "Well until you become my personal chef I'd have to wait...you're very patient with me." You mumbles the last part, fiddling with your hands and he takes hold of them. You noticed his hands felt warm and you look up at him, "You're special to me."
You tilt your head at him, "Is that a special needs joke?"
He grins and wraps his arm around your shoulder, "Could be but you're still special...c'mon...let's go get some mcdonalds and worry about our health when we're old." He escorts you both to the front of the house.
"I'll still be eating chicken nuggets at 50."
"If you're alive by then with your health choices."

(˶ᔠᔠá”˶) TODAYâS CONTENTS : 16+ / cursing / reader is suspicious!.. / a little bit of angst(?) / fem!reader / reader is scared of bugs / reader is described shorter than satoru / satoruâs kindaaa a bitch / let me know if i missed any warnings <3 â
ËËË series m.list â
ËËË wc : 3.7k (how did we go from 2.5k to..)
âtokyo jujutsu high..â you lean back against your seat in the train as an overwhelming feeling takes over you. this is going to be your new life â as a jujutsu sorcerer. this is what you signed up for, so no take backsies, right? even so, you canât shake off the lingering feeling within you that tells you today is going to be much more than just a.. âlong dayâ
âExcuse me, can you stop your mumbling?â your head snapped towards the sound, a look of embarrassment washing over you, realizing youâve been talking to yourself like an idiot.
âoh, my apologies.â you force a smile at the old man who had been clearly trying to sleep, silently cursing yourself for choosing the worst possible seat â it doesnât look like there are any decent ones, now that you look around.
âwhew, everyone on this train looks real sketchy..â and youâre back to mumbling to yourself. i canât even get my head straight right now.. the overburning feelings of excitement and stress cling to your heart. this is a big day for you, isnât it?
you were told you were the replacement for some.. âcrazy guyâ who slaughtered an entire village and left the jujutsu society. you wonder how his teammates feel about that â are they mad about what he did? sad that he left? or worse, scared of him even? no â maybe all at once. âsounds like a bunch of bullshit though..â you sub-consciously mutter. i mean, who is crazy enough to kill the people they swore to protect?
you canât help but stare out of the window, a state of frenzy taking over you. determination flows through your body, youâre ready for this, these are just the few small steps you need to aâ
âattention passengers,â a voice echoes through the train âweâve arrived at tokyo â may all passengers please depart carefully, i repeat, weâve arrived at-â
a frustrated groan leaves your lips, maybe you did want the train ride to last just a little longer. the boost of confidence you had early had quickly seemed to dissipate into thin air. come on, youâve got this..
despite the hesitating thoughts, you donât waste another second without arising from your seat, nearly stumbling onto your belongings. a sheepish apology quickly slips out of your mouth in a desperate attempt to not make any further noise while leaving your seat, lurking behind the stretching line of people exiting the train.
the almost never-ending line slowly becomes smaller and smaller until youâve finally reached the train gate. as soon as you walk out and enter the train station, youâre greeted with the beautiful scenery of tokyo. itâs your first time experiencing the grace of such a serene place in real time â itâs almost distracting, really, the sound of birds chirping by and people bustling everywhere â hold on, something smells a little..
âhey, iâm here.â a hand waves over your face, causing you to flip around quickly and youâre greeted by the sight of a girl with short brown hair and a cigarette sitting in between her lips â so thatâs where the smell is coming from. âoh.â you eye her uniform, easily recognising the jujutsu tech uniform that bared similarities to yours.
âwow, youâre pretty.â you attempt to ignore the smoke hitting your face by throwing in a compliment, miserably failing as you slip out a couple of coughsâ ahem. . you clear your throat.
the girl notices your discomfort quickly. âsorry.â she removes the cigarette from her mouth, letting the tip burn and the end falling to the ground.
âno, no, its fine.â you shake your hands, sighing in relief when you finally taste some fresh air. âso, youâre shoko right?â a curious gaze displays your features.
âmhm, i am shoko.â she confirms your statement. âMr. Yaga sent me to escort you, he rambled quite a bit about you.â shoko briefly glances your way as you subtly nod at her words, gesturing you to follow her. you wonder what Mr. Yaga could have possibly said about you â hopefully good things.
âso youâre replacing suguru, huh?â she says it almost as a fact and not a question. honestly, she is also a little unsure about the replacement like satoruâ maybe not as worried as him, but she still expresses a sense of uneasiness â she is suguruâs friend too after all. . or was.
you havenât even noticed that sheâs talking to you, her words entering into one ear and out of the other. youâre inattentively staring straight ahead, mind too occupied with thoughts to notice her voice. your ears are ringing with theories about what could of seemingly caused their friend to do such an insane 360 â or maybe im thinking about it too much, heâs not what im after anyway..
âheeyy? you there?â
âoh, yeah, i am.â your response came off a little delayed. damn it, focus. you shake your head, trying to get rid of the lingering thoughts, itâs not the time to let your head get swayed.
âso. . is smoking even allowed in there?â you ask with a half-hearted snicker, a desperate attempt to save conversation.
âno, but if you donât get caught then it never happened.â she shrugs. ânot much of a smoker, are you?â the teasing glint in her voice makes you a little embarrassed, a nervous smile bracing your lips. âno, not really haha.â
ânothing to be embarrassed about, im just poking you.â her reassurance made you sigh in relief, perhaps this wasnât going to be as difficult as you assumed it was.
âactually.. i wanted to ask something.â shoko turns her head in your direction, awaiting your question expectantly. thereâs an unsure expression on your face, contemplating your words.
âwhy did your teammate-â the words are about to roll off your tongue when suddenly a strange noise causes you to choke on your words â ring ring.
well isnât that just great.
âsorry, gimmie a sec.â shoko looks at you apologetically as she takes her flip-phone out of her pocket. she checks the contact name, satoru. you managed to take a peep in time to see whoâs calling.
the name leaves your throat a little dry. satoru gojo â from the gojo family. his existence itself makes curses quiver. a sense of rage boils up within you, hearing the name of the gojo clan itself makes your teeth grit.
your eyes narrow for a moment as you faintly hear his voice on the other side of the phone, words being exchanged. âstop calling, im almost there.â shoko hung up, her attention diverting back to you. she doesnât miss the scowl on your face. âsomething wrong?â
âoh, no, nothing.â you snap out of your trance before your kettle could pop, your lips curling upward. âwhoâs âsatoruâ?â you fake a curious look. play dumb â thatâs it.
âyou donât know satoru gojo?â shoko lets out a humorous laugh, faltering a little when she sees the serious look on your face. âheâs from one of the big clans, the strongest sorcerer of our generation, they say.â she simply shrugged. âdonât worry about it, heâs all talk, no bark.â she gives you a reassuring look, not what you would of expected from a gojo clan member â but perhaps you should take her word for it, for now.
theres a strangely comforting silence as you follow behind her, you could feel the air getting chilly and shivers vibrating through your body. shoko doesnât seem to be affected much by it. maybe i shouldâve brought a coat.
âanyways, weâre at the outskirts of tokyo now.â you squint your eyes, seeing a big building a few feet away. âwell, youâre officially a sorcerer now. its not as exciting as it sounds, though.â she gives you a teasing look.
âi know that.â you roll your eyes. you both take a few more steps, finally arriving at the gate. behind the gate you spot multiple buildings. you have to stand still and collect your breath for a moment, so this is jujutsu tech.
âwoah, itâs huge.â of course you knew a place with sorcererâs from one of the biggest clans wasnât going to be any joke, but itâs hard not to be swayed by such a breath-taking place.
âcome on, lets go.â she takes your hand and walks through the gate. you closely inspect every sight on your way. wow, this place was pretty. youâre almost jealous of itâs radiance.
youâre taken to a bridge where shoko spots a familiar lean figure slouched against the railing with a sulky pout. the chalk-white hair that fell over his eyes, having to push them back with his long fingers and you almost get a view of the famous six eyes the gojo family is known for â those serene blue eyes that can put you in a daze with a look â wait, are you in a daze?
ânot you too..â shoko slams her face causing you to snap out of your daydreams in a panicked oh! âim going to hide your face with a cardboard box one day, i swear.â a nasty side-eye was sent satoruâs way.
you thought him âcharming people with one lookâ (such big talk!) was mere gossip amongst the crowd. i mean, he couldnât be that beautiful right?
youâve never been more wrong.
âhuuuuuh? so itâs my fault now?â satoru crosses his arms, a pout visible on his face. shoko already knows his ego is already swelling with pride, âcause he just canât control the fact that heâs oh-so beautiful, can he?
âoh. . uh.â you finally realize his tall figure looming over you, taking a few steps back as he sizes you up, those piercing cold eyes were antagonising, anything but friendly. resentment runs through your body â it really is him, satoru gojo.
âthis is stupid.â satoru let out a huff, pulling away and crossing his arms. âwe donât need a replacââ satoru freezes in place when he catches the striking scowl on shokoâs face. âwhatever. itâs âniceâ to meet you.â how much more pettier could he get?
âwellllll, ahem.â you let out a cough, trying to compose yourself. âmy apologies. youâre satoru right?â you ask with a friendly smile on your face, but itâs almost like he can see through it with the way he eyes you. as if his icy orbs were poking right through your skull, did a shiver just run down your spine?
âitâs gojo to you.â a huff escaped his mouth and he turned away, refusing to even look at you, as if he was destined to hate you the exact moment you met â well, at least thatâs something you both have in common.
shoko could only smack her forehead with her palm. when suguru joined sorcery, him and satoru didnât hit it off immediately, it took them a while to get used to eachotherâs company and get over their silly rivalry.
yet she has this strange feeling it might not be the same with you.
âignore him, heâs just been a big whiny bitch about about the idea of a replacement.â shoko places a hand over your shoulder, ignoring the offended look satoru gave her, he was no âwhiny bitchâ about it.. okay, maybe he was⊠just a little.
âspeaking off..â you finally take your chance. âwhyâd your old teammate leave?â as soon as the words spilled out of your throat, you quickly notice how a cold tension develops in the air. you take a glance at satoru, oh. he doesnât look very pleased you brought that up. .
âwhatâs it to you?â he snickers, tone comes off with an edge of hurt. he canât say heâs over it, that he moved on, that would be a blatant lie. the reoccuring images of that day play in his head, not a single flaw in the vision of that scene â and it hurts.
you almost feel bad for bringing it up, since it clearly wasnât the. . âright timeâ. you rub your hands together, its cold. was it always this chilly out here?
âi was just askââ âwell, itâs none of your damn business.â
you can almost feel his glare, as if it was stabbing daggers right through your mind. teeth clenching, you hate that look, itâs just like them all. just like every other gâ
âweâll talk about it later.â shoko finally says something, you let out a breath you didnât even know you were holding. âim going to show her around for a bit, satoru. bye.â shoko waved as she quickly pulled you away from the bridge. phew.
âso i definitely killed the mo-â youâre immediately cut off. âdonât bring that up in front of him, god.â shoko laughs. âitâs a sensitive topic for him.â
shoko looked up for a brief moment, exhaling. âsuguru â he was our old teammate. they both were practically inseparable, iâm guessing you know he left and all.â you take in her words, suguru geto, of course you already knew who he was.
âim guessing you also wont tell me why he left.â you laugh, yet a curious gaze still present, hoping to hit the jackpot. âwell.â shoko lets out a quiet hum and youâre kept on your toes, anticipating, as if watching a love confession in a movie. come on. .
âwhy do you wanna know so bad?â ah, shit. you almost let a groan leave your lips, you knew it was never going to be that easy, yet itâs just as frustrating.
âim just a little curious, from the things i heard he did some prettyyy crazy things, yâknow?â woah, good save. âi canât argue with you on that.â shoko laughs bitterly. âill tell you some other time, though. its your first day here, let me tour you for real.â
you nod at her words, trailing behind her as she leads you to a hallway. you take a good look around â must be the dorms.
âso this is where the dorms are.â you look to the direction shoko points at. âyour dorm is the one on the right, next to.. satoruâs.â she gives you an apologetic look. âtheres no other rooms with essentials as of now, hope he wont be a big pain in the ass for you.â
you acknowledge her words, slowly moving to the room, paying a lot more attention to satoruâs door than yours â there was nothing special about it, yet you canât shake the feeling that everythingâs going a bit.. too smooth. your dorm being right next to his is like a lottery ticket, itâll make everything much easier, but itâs almost too good to be true â or maybe youâre just overthinking it.
aside from that, itâs also not the best thing in the world. itâll be perfect for your mission, and yet one day you might just end up punching that arrogant expression on his face from irritation â a double edged sword, they say.
âyou can do whatever you want with the room, you listening?â you turn back to shoko, giving her a half-hearted smile. âoh, yeah, definitely.â shoko gives you a suspicious look. âill take your word for it.. anyway, Mr. Yaga wants to see us tomorrow for a mission so you can prepare for that.â
âwow, mission already? itâs not a piece of cake, huh?â you joke. âconsider yourself lucky, a lot of people have it way worse.â she teases you. âim going to go back to my own room â 303 if youâve got any questions.â she gives you a pat on the shoulder before heading to the third floor, leaving you with the key to your dorm.
you slowly approach the door, finding yourself inspecting the door carefully as if something might jump out and hurt you, paranoid much.
rest assured, there was nothing set up. (obviously. .) youâre fiddling with your keys, about to open the doorâ
footsteps. the noise causes your ears to perk up immediately, turning around in a defensive stance to see whoever it isâ oh.
âwoah.â satoru raises his hand in the air defensively. âyou âtryna to kill me or something?â redness spreads across your face as you immediately stand up straight. âim not armed, that was just a reflex.â you shoot him a glare. clearly, both of you were still petty about earlier.
âyou were reaaaaalll nice with shoko huh?â suddenly heâs leaning in close. too close. is he onto you? is your journey over right here right now? maybe you were stupid for thinking you co- âthereâs no mistake about it..â he scratches his chin.
âwhat?â you clench your fist in annoyance, its like your patience disappears whenever it comes to him.
âyouâve got a bug in your hair, do you even wash it?â
. . . .
âwait, what?â a rush of panic washes over you. âwhere is it!? wait, gojo!â you look up to him with a pitiful expression, only to be met with a teasing smirk. âohhh, so youâre scared of bugs.â heâs saying it as if heâs keeping tabs on you or something. . he definitely is.
âi was just playing with you.â he shrugs nonchalantly. âseriously, how are you gonna fight a curse if youâre scared of a âlil ole bug?â oh this little tease.
âyouâre seriously. asking to be punched, gojo.â you attempt to come off as intimidating as you can. unfortunately for you, youâre dealing with the cockiest man on this planet.
âwhat happened to âyer nice little demeanour huuuh? or does it just not apply tâme?â heâs easily towering over you, you donât know why heâs so.. adamant to get to you. every word that comes out of his mouth â god, give me patience.
âbold of you to assume you deserve a single ounce of kindness.â ouch. the exasperated look on his face proved he did not take your comment lightly.
âoh yeah? donât get arrogant just âcause you happen to get picked as a replacement.â thereâs a strange venom in his words, you canât tell whether it's targeted towards you. just why did he have to be so hard to read?
âjust what are you so mad about, that you have to come bother someone else about it?â you bite back. âoh, yeah, me mad, suuuuureee. as if you didnât look like you wanted to kill me a few seconds ago.â he retorts right back at you.
this isnât how itâs supposed to go. youâre supposed to be nice to him and gain his trust â but that lingering anger in your heart is taking over you, the same coldness you loathe feeling â that cold look in his eyes, its just like them all. itâs like your feelings are speaking for you, as if your heart is pouring itself out.
present you would laugh at the fact that just an hour ago, you thought youâd be able to befriend him with ease. like a walk in the park, youâll shoot him a kind smile just like you did with shoko, compliment his eyes maybe, yet it seems like you were destined to be enemies at first sight.
âand you know what? maybe you should be careful, âcause i will.â you shoot back, but satoruâs obviously not taking your threat seriously â âwhat could a wimp like her do to me?â
âoh please.â he grabs the collar of your shirt. âif you want me to be the last thing you see ill make it happen right n-â
âsatoru, what are you doing?â a stern voice is heard from behind satoru and he immediately pulls away. you immediately recognise the man as the principle â Masamichi Yaga.
ânothinnggggg.â what a liar, you almost want to rat him out but technically itâs your fault as well. . .
âyouâre the new student, arenât you?â the man approaches you while satoru quietly observes. âyeah-â your voice comes out in a stutter. âi am..â
âitâs your first day here, and youâre already fighting with that lunatic.â a grumble escaped his lips. his tone held a sense of aloofness, he doesnât seem like someone who plays around. âdonât let me find this behaviour continuing.â
âbut he started it f-â you donât even have time to respond and heâs leaving. your first encounter with the principle and its great, wow.
âbut sirrrr, but heee..!â satoru mocks you from the side, and you have half a mind to not kick him in the face right there.
âim done arguing with an immature jerk like you.â you declare confidently, knowing youâre just as immature as him. âwoooooah, look at miss victim being the bigger person, arenât you sooo admir-â by the time heâs done talking, youâve already slammed the door to your room shut, causing him to flinch a little.
âgee, sheâs âannoyin alright.â satoru opens the door to his own room with his key. walking inside and flopping onto the bed immediately. the AC is turned on in a beat. satoru can feel his mind relax as the cool air hits his body.
todayâs tiring. thereâs a lot of new unwanted thoughts swarming his mind, many of them being you.
in fact â ever since he heard about you replacing suguru, heâs been unable to help the hatred that filled his heart. is it hatred? or is he scared? the thought of someone else taking suguruâs place, for some reason, it irks him.
âmaaaan, feelings are just as annoying as her.â satoru grumbled, resting his head on his arms. âi swear âsomethin about her rubs me the wrong way.â
heâs not taking himself too seriously. heâs probably just thinking about it too much because heâs overwhelmed. heâll take a nap and forget about it soon enough. (if only he followed his âdivine intuitionâ.)
you, on the other hand, are quite literally panicking. unable to even lay down on your bed. youâre staring at the wall in disbelief, youâve made it so far, you canât afford to mess up now. but that look in his eyes â it brings back too many memories youâve been wanting to forget.
maybe he was just playing around when you were fighting, but youâve realised it now. he really can kill you if he wanted to. it makes you doubt yourself â if you even hold a fraction of his power. you knew it was never going to be easy, but it makes you wonder.
âjust how will i assassinate gojo satoru?â

Okay here we go
Does Stanfraud's eye still bleeds, like when Bill was possessing Ford or doesn't because of his bigger connection to Ford's body?
Is Stanfraud an uncle/big brother figure to Soos, like Stanley is his dad figure? Does Bill even care about him even a littleđą
I know that the main focus of this au is on Bill, but since Stanley didn't try to pretend to be Ford, how did Stanley's and Filbrick's first meeting went after the whole "getting kicked out" thing"? Especially since both Stan and Ford were definitely broke at the time
You mentioned that Bill still has access to a little portion of his powers, what are they exactly?
Anyway your au is genuinely awesome and seeing it on my dash is always a huge treat đđđ
Okay the first question I really want to answer because Iâve been thinking about this:
â His eye definitely bleeds on occasion. Even though he is far more connected to Fordâs body here, heâs still a demon possessing a host. He shouldnât be there. Thereâs some outer force keeping him trapped. So I have thought about the fact there would probably be some lasting impacts on the body due to possession exposure for so long, such as the eye bleeding becoming a regular problem and gradual loss of vision in that eye. There may also be other physical impacts, but Iâll work on those when I manage to get down an official design for him.
â Great News! He is like Soosâ weird uncle! That may be where he learned to be somewhat decent around kids, honestly. He absolutely tried to mess with him at first, make jabs, tell him the date of his death, attempt to drive him to madness just a little (this is why Stan had to get rid of the last handyman), but Soos proved to be incorruptible and took all of Stanfraudâs weirdness in stride. Bill does end up caring about him. He goes as far as to liking their conversations. Soos keeps up with his chaos! Even Bill isnât sure whatâs going on in that head of his (when he gets his own body back heâs going to find out).
â Though Bill is the main focus of the plot-change, the other aspects are equally as important and so Iâm glad they also have peopleâs interest! Their first meeting is⊠tense, to say the least. If Filbrick has any regrets, which I think Iâll leave up to interpretation, heâs far too stubborn a man to show them, and would rather dig himself further into a hole than admit he made a mistake. Stan desperately just wants to ignore all the scathing comments and get this little reunion over with, until Filbrick makes a comment about Ford, then Stan snaps. You can insult him, he probably deserves it, but not his brother. Sure, they may not be his brother right now, but the intent is there, and thatâs what counts.
It cuts everything short, with Stan grabbing Fraud and telling him theyâre leaving (He doesnât complain).
With Filbrick, I do kind of want to explore their dynamic over the years while heâs still alive, especially with Stan, but also with how heâd treat âFordâ and his odder behaviour. I donât want to just make Filbrick a one-dimensional character though, as I think thereâs a lot to be said about the cycle of abuse and parental projection so. While the AU may be based around the question âwhat if Bill got stuck possessing Ford?â The answers it has lead me down a lot of different paths to explore â such as this!
â The powers he has access too lessen over time, but currently he is somewhat capable of seeing potential future outcomes (ciphervoyance), pyrokinesis, telekinesis, faster healing factor and teleportation. Note that all of these are in a much weaker state and drain Fordâs body and by extension Bill heavily â especially teleportation. Doing that once can cause him to pass out, so itâs more of an emergency thing, most his abilities are honestly. Too much focus is required.
And Iâm so happy to be a little treat on your dash!! I hope you enjoy all this just as much!

RE your tags on the bromance thing - I think I allowed myself to get a little panicky earlier when seeing a few people talk about there potentially being more, and whilst there are a few points made that I can understand, I do feel like the amount of worry Iâm seeing it maybe a little preemptive?
Like, I do agree that it feels stupid to put TayNew in a bromance series; if they wanted two actors that are close & have worked together before, why not Tay and Off or New and Gun or something? BUT I did see that Tay and New actually wanted to do a bromance series together, so thereâs part of me thinking that this was THEIR choice to do this series and not give it to some other actors. (And letâs be fair, I donât think thereâs anyone else who could have made this show so warm, angsty, and lovely.)
I feel like GMMTV has really been embracing their BLs a bit more if Iâm honest, and sure, they do queer baiting in their non-queer shows, but who doesnât? You can watch anything on Netflix or whatever and find âbromancesâ that are severe queer baiting.
I kinda feel like sometimes people pile on GMMTV a bit much, all because theyâre kinda like the biggest company in the drama community that does decent queer dramas? I donât know if thatâs just me being blind to their flaws, but I sometimes think they get a little more hate than other production companies and not always deservedly? (I mean I know they arenât perfect and I call out their bullshit myself, but I feel like sometimes itâs âcoolâ to hate on them?)
Sorry if none of this makes sense and Iâm rambling - itâs almost 2am and I really need to sleep đ€Ł
In my opinion, these claims that GMMTV is going to pivot to bromances because theyâre less gay and more profitable are absolutely baseless. Bromances are not new to GMMTV. Theyâre not even new to TayNew as I believe Iâm Tee, Me Too was a bromance as well. Like you said, PâDome explicitly stated that TayNew wanted to film a show together that was not a BL. Should they not be able to? And werenât these same people complaining just days ago that CPs are never allowed to act outside of their CP? Now, theyâre mad when they do.
What people are losing their marbles over is literally just the cast and crew having a good time with the fans. Did they play into the shipping aspect both onscreen and off? Of course they did! What writer worth their salt would have passed up such a perfect opportunity? But to me, it didnât feel malicious. It felt like PâDome was just having fun and giving Polcas a little nod. I almost feel like it would have been more strange if he hadnât.
People certainly donât have to like bromances, but itâs like We Are all over again where people were saying its very existence was indicative of the fall of the genre as we know it. And thatâs just utterly ridiculous. This isnât a queer story where the queerness was censored. In fact, there were explicit queer themes throughout. This is just a platonic love story and a lot of people who may not be interested in romantic relationships have found immense value in that.
Like I said in my tags, PâAof is the Director of Content Production at GMMTV, meaning he is literally the one in charge of what content is being produced, and Iâm choosing to trust the gay Thai man who has dedicated his career to this. He has such a passion for telling queer stories. Why would he stop now?
But like you said, itâs become hip to hate on GMMTV. And look, I donât like corporations either, but letâs not pretend like GMMTV isnât really fucking gay. Because they are. This is not a company that has ever shied away from explicitly queer content and is actually making more of it than ever before, so Iâm not going to fault them for adding a few shows for the straights too. And if they have to make het stuff, I would much rather sit through a bromance than anything else.
I mean Jesus Christ. Peaceful Property was fun. I had fun. And it was also really goodâeasily my favorite offering from GMMTV all yearâso if they want to make a hundred more bromances just like this, Iâm certainly not going to complain about it. Some people just donât want to enjoy anything.
(And go to sleep, Pip! Itâs late đ)

Hiii pretties! Welcome to my blog!! Please keep things positive and stay slutty my friends!!!
~If you have any requests, please feel free to leave it in my inbox!!!~
Masterlist: The Watcher (Part One, Part Two, ...)
you can read the rest if you wanna like know more about me n shit ig
Hello!! I'm Kay, or K, kat, whatever you wanna call me. I'm literally just a girl. I am a freakkkk. I do be a bit of a stoner y'all, and I usually am high when I write, so if I make a mistake, I'm blaming that. I'm from the United States (unfortunately) and I only speak English. This is a safe place; I am always here if anyone wants to talk. I do not discriminate; I do not spread hate. I do not and will not tolerate hate or unkind behavior towards me or others here on my blog. Like seriously guys I have bad anxiety, so please be nice and don't make it harder for me.
This is pretty much solely for Outer Banks, Rafe Cameron to be more specific. But, feel free to talk to me about other things!
Other things I'm interested in/passionate about: Taylor Swift, veterinary medicine, Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, The Walking Dead, 13 Reasons Why, Supernatural, Jurassic Park/World, Harry Potter, The Maze Runner, The Hunger Games, comedy movies (Seth Rogen & James Franco). I love cold weather, books, and cats. Music is life and I listen to a little bit of everything so feel free to send songs.
I AM a student, so just keep in mind that I may be inactive because Iâm in CLASS or doing work; because I will prioritize that over tumblr (well, i try). Other times Iâm inactive because I am sleeping, or because Iâm busy with LIFE. I am not tied to my tumblr and blog. Iâve had only positive experiences here so far, but I know that fanfic writers are often mistreated by readers, but guys we are all just people.
If you want me to hurry up and publish new work, don't tell me that, just interact with my blog and compliment my writing and that will motivate me more than anything else ever could. Also ASK AND REQUEST PLEASEEE!! I really enjoy and appreciate new ideas and feedback from other people's brains. I also appreciate constructive criticism. Don't be mean about it, but if you dislike or disagree with something, tell me politely. I like hearing feedback and am always working on improving my writing.
Seriously y'all, please please PLEASE do NOT be hateful. Do that on your own time, not here. I will not tolerate unnecessary attitude and hate. I believe in forgiveness, and I know that mistakes and misunderstandings happen. I will treat anyone and everyone with kindness and respect unless I have reason not to (really hoping I don't).
Who do I write for? I only write for Rafe Cameron. However, I'm not opposed to writing a little or sharing thoughts about other Outer Banks Characters!
What do I write? I will write literally almost anything. Thereâs no such thing as too much for me, so request away please. ------ As for darker topics, I will write them. Actually, a large portion of my work will include darker topics/themes/kinks, etc. I will write sensitive subjects too. But just because I live for that shit, doesn't mean everyone else does so I'll do my best to include warnings on all my work for any content that might potentially be triggering for others.
(Small warning: mentions of my mental struggles and self-destructive habits) I've always struggled mentally. I've always felt as though the way my brain works is different from everyone else; like something is wrong with me. But after many many years, I now have a better understanding of myself and how my brain works. Not to dump this on y'all, I swear I have a point, but I have diagnosed depression, anxiety, and ADHD. These things are all a big challenge I face in my day-to-day life and are often the leading cause of why I may take longer to write and publish things. I may take breaks, so don't worry if I'm not active, I will be back at some point. And I'll try my best to update you guys on when I'm gonna be less active or vice versa. Another way my mental health effects my writing is because when I write, a lot of the time my personal experiences or feelings will end up incorporated within my work, since well, it's all coming from my brain. I mostly write for myself to express my thoughts and feelings, having others read and actually enjoy my work is just an added bonus. But personally, I have struggled with self-harm for about one third of my life. I often get ideas for new works revolving around this theme and may publish things about it eventually. Themes such as mental illnesses, self-harm, abuse, insecurities, EDs, suicidal thoughts, unhealthy relationships (obv), toxic household, etc. will have a reoccurring appearance throughout my works. So just be prepared, I guess.
And like I said before, if anyone needs to talk, I am ALWAYS here and I am a very good listener.
Everyone is more than welcome to message me or leave anything in my inbox. Whether it's to chat, request something, ask something, literally whatever is welcome!! (Except hate I don't fw that)
Thank you for visiting my blog, I hope you enjoy! As always, be kind and stay slutty!

I'm probably not the first to admit this but goddamn was I a narcissistic prick when I wasn't on stimulants
#adhd#not art#like this only thing I could think about was how understimulated I was#every person was boring because I was in such a severe and chronic state of dopamine deficiency#so I wasn't interested or curious about ANYONE and nobody could 'satiate me' and I deemed everyone boring because of it#then the first week on my meds & I went to visit my neighbor#& I was like 'omg your granddaughter came to visit this weekend? how was she? :)'#and then after I went home and I was like wow she's so sweet and her life seems so interesting I cant wait to talk more about it#and then it hit me I had known her for YEARS and it wasn't until now that I.. cared :(#made me feel really bad but also glad that I actually have the capacity to care and it wasn't just my personality#I had to do a lot of damage control :T but some bridges were burned and I gotta live with that#now I can proudly proclaim that no im not a narcissist bc I think people are interesting and I wanna hear them talk#i can just sit and listen and internalizing their perspective ..#for once I like people and I'm not a victim in some imaginary fight for mediocrity with everyone else#it never excited and im happy to feel that way#also whenever I speak with unmedicated adhders I just look at them like wow you don't even know how much your brain is making itself suffer#every adhder may not want to or can take meds and that's fine but everyone at least deserves to know what it feels when they work

Do not stop talking about Palestine. Do not forget about Palestine. This is not a battle of religion and I do not think it should be treated as such. From the river to the sea, they will be free đ”đž
Disclaimer: I am not an expert. I am just some guy in the US. I am not a direct source of information. Please listen to Palestinians. Please help them directly. Please help with protests if your country is supplying Israel with weapons like the US.
#but wait there's more#it may take a while for me to gather my thoughts so not immediately#I have so many thoughts specially about holy land experience type shit#my personal belief is that Palestinians should be given back their land#Israel will become a part of Palestine and would receive full citizenship#and all of them will be treated as equals#Aid will go to Palestinians as the country and rebuilt as much as it can be after so much tragedy#Since the idea of Israel was to have a protective Jewish state#I think the better option would be for the world to agree collectively to be a place for refugees#if there's another situation like the holocaust#all refugees should be given that opportunity to escape#there's so many conspiracies against Jewish people which is why I think it needs to be declared by countries to protect any Jewish person#that is fleeing antisemitism in their current country#it doesn't need to be a Jewish state especially with so many Jewish people being pro-Palestine#and living outside of Israel#I know people currently living in Israel and I want them to be safe#And they will be if their government just lets Palestinians live#but yea later on I'll talk about the holy land experience thing I'm pissed about rn#I feel like I haven't said enough on the blog. I have terrible OCD where I'll ruminate about this until I panic#I do not want to be a source of that for others so I encourage you to educate yourself without ruminating#It does not help Palestine to shame yourself and others for not being able to do a specific thing#So instead I ask you to look it up when you are able to and do what you can#I usually do the daily clicker and I wanted to join my university's protests but couldn't#since I was the only one working my job which is monitoring the queer safe space on campus#and I didn't want to close that area just in case it was need by protesters or queer students#just found out today ppl at my school will be expelled if caught so that's why it's at the front of my mind rn

i read part of the first chapter of sea glass gardens a while ago but decided to come back once I knew more about the characters and world building of jjk. Anyways and I watched jjk 0 and your telling me he actually blew up the school with the power of love??? Like full on textually the power of love??? He straight up used the power of love to nuke Geto and subsequently the school??? Are you kidding me?? I'm losing my mind. What the fuck
my boy has powerful love within him and also incredible and indiscriminate violence. what more could you want from a character.
#it never once occurred to me that people thought I was joking about the power of love#like I was aware that people who were not in the fandom were reading it#I did not consider that people may not realize it was explicitly the power of love and it did in fact level his school#he fucked a grown man up with that#like it caused a mushroom cloud of pure love#god I love Yuuta#heâs so insane and violent#someone hurt his friends and he was immediately like âthat adult man needs to fucking dieâ#Geto came there to commit premeditated murder and out of the two of them YUUTA showed much more dedication to beating the other to death#with their bare hands. he wanted to fuck that grown man up. canonically did not care about anything else. he needed to die and Yuuta would#die to make that happen. god heâs so insane. Iâm obsessed with him.#*sgg spoilers in this tag* the RCT absolutely caused his unbalanced emotional state but the violent impulses are all Yuuta#look he Cares A Lot and sometimes he may have to kill people about that#jjk0 is the greatest movie of all time to me#I donât even know how many times Iâve watched it#it simply enchants me#I drove across the country and listened to specifically the song on the soundtrack that plays during Yuutaâs Fuck Off Love Beam on endless#loop. youâd thing Iâd get tired of it but nope.#sea glass gardens

an ii/su crossover would be fun just for the trichotomy of light-based beings. inorganic light/organic light/whatever the ii contestants are

#; ⥠; okay to reblog#muu has admittedly been describing is self perceived melancholy and isolation regarding it#as being comparable to the circle drawn around Sadness in Inside Out due to others finding his emotions to be Too Much in capacity#and that as such he has thus been persistently trying to make himself very very small in spaces#so that maybe perhaps someone would soon be able to reside in the circle with him just until he gets to where he feels he is supposed to be#muu has also stated on numerous actions that while he is adamant about self healing he is not necessarily of preference#to not have the assistance of peers and their feedback and he tends he show it most predominantly in asking them to hear Everything#about himself in the form of the big box because one he wants assurances at the end of it all but also because he Has to be explaining#his processes of thought and general state of where he is now to people so that they may go Oh so that why you do the neurotic shit you do#but it really be hard out here when you don't know how to self advocate for a persistently emotionally present romantic partner#you don't really have any friends and you are either God awful at making new ones or you don't want to try for reasons of either#feeling scorned past close friends of yours have left time and time again OR#because you don't know what version of yourself is the Real one or the Good one or the Authentic one so you avoid socializing#until you can properly answer that dilemma but in turn you've left yourself with 1 person to seek out and talk to#but with that comes the existential dread of either a this person is also going to leave me or#b I am in fact so totally codependent on them that it isn't fair to be my sole research for assistance that I ought to fend for myself#but what do you even do to fend for yourself when you don't even know how to Advocate for yourself??#you devise a plan to shrink down and provide no indication to those around you that you are struggling with anything#that perhaps shriveling yourself down like that will allow for people to find you tolerable enough to be around#and that their presences will patch up every interpersonal wound in your system until eventually what you are faking has come true#; ⥠; inner thoughts

my post series recommendation is that if you've never listened to the orchestral version of hero by faouzia while thinking about Wilhelm and Simon's utter trainwreck of a romance, you should. I think you should.
#shows#young royals#I have loved this show truly#and it can never not be political for me given where I grew up and my own convictions but I don't think the crew copped out of the politics#maybe it's a gentler version of the story than reality would allow but it's a wonderful example of#thoughtful naturalistic visual storytelling that is largely uninterested#in overexplaining or justifying it's narrative#while still remaining loyal to it's thematic baseline#I'd love to actually get around to some of that meta I vauged about post s2 on class and setting and possibly I will in May#when I have room for thoughts#because I do still want to make my points about how the personalisation of politics usually makes people blind to the systemic issue at han#which I think the show balanced pretty nicely#if you grew up or are growing up in a constitutional monarchy and you're not really engaged with your local republican movement#maybe now would be a good time to start thinking about it#a lot of people think 'well it's an archaic system so it should go' and leave it at that but the issues run so much deeper#than who the head of state is and this stuff is really worth considering if this is the political system the currently defines your future#anyway I'll put my praxis down for the time being#and just take a moment to appriciate this fantastic variation on the age old theme#isn't love really just a form of madness#like doesn't first love just kind of make you utterly lose your mind in a way that could conceivably bring empires to their knees#in all of it's single minded innocence and utter irrationality#cause yeah....yeah I remember that

guy who feels annoying All Of The Time for rambling gets told itâs fine to do so unapologeticallyâŠâŠ sobs :â] <3 /pos
i shall dm you i guess????? i think thatâs most comfy for Me lol??? <- is so bad at social interaction omg save me
(responding to tags again: you fucking GET IT!!!!! shakes you so much omfg dude RAHHHH!!!!!! /affectionate
your cat is so cuteâŠâŠ she is goals (iâm catkin lmao) she looks so cozy and warm and soft and yeah sheâs just great. giving her a little kiss because what cat doesnât deserve lil kissies?)
-gregarious anon
:D yeah i ramble constantly about whateverâs on my mind and am constantly worried about being annoying so when someone else feels that way about rambling to me i just go with it, no being annoying here, just fun and chatting about whatever comes to mind :3
and o7 looking forward to it, gregarious anon
#asks#Apollo answers#gregarious anon#do not be fooled by how cozy she looks. she can be a huge asshole when she wants to be#mostly sheâs rather sweet but she has her moments. to be fair she was an outside cat for most of her life before we got her (she was my#auntâs cat (motherâs full blood younger sister) before she moved and decided to give her to us instead of taking her on a long drive across#numerous state lines (about a 24 hour drive from here where she used to live to the state she lives in now) and Pickles already hated the#drive from my aunts old house to here. but sheâs really adjusted well to now being an inside cat. weâve had her since may i think? maybe#april at the earliest. i know we got her on my senior prom day (literally just an hour before. i was super worried about being late) so its#been about seven or eight months. she was at least relatively socialized with people before we got her thankfully so that wasnât much of a#problem or thing to worry about. however the only like slight problem we have is that she wasnât really raised around kittens and we#recently got two (Scamper and Eclipse) so weâre trying to train the kittens to not tear up stuff in the house and train Pickles to be nice#and be gentle with them and share toys and stuff. currently the kittens go up at night into an enclosed mesh playpen and Pickles sleeps in#my room with me like before the kittens came along. we supervise them playing most of the time. i think sheâs getting a bit better at being#gentle and playing nice with them. its a slow process but weâre getting somewhere at the very least)#wow that was a lot more than i meant to type. anyway. free Picklesâ lore

Saw a post yesterday that I got the meaning of but thought the execution was a little misguided. Basically it was saying that you shouldn't shame people for not proving with posts that they are doing all kinds of activism around the war in I/P. But it said you shouldn't do this because maybe they are doing super secret potentiall illegal activism and it's not safe to post about. When in fact I would argue much more generally- stop writing things that attempt to shame people for not 'doing enough' activism-wise AT ALL.
I really don't get this because I've been involved in environmental activism groups for the past 4 years and the most common thing people criticise environmental activist causes for is focusing too much on individual change. (Whether this if fair or not is debatable- sometimes yes, sometimes it's definitely in bad faith, sometimes people are projecting massively, and also often they are talking about some manner of corporate activism or token 'good faith' gesture from big companies that doesn't do much and that environmental activists are alsp criticising.) Therefore now there seems to be a big resurgence in trying to make individuals feel terrible until they put their nose to the grindstone enough to solve huge, monumentally vast conflicts, I am fucking confused. Ok I am being a little flippant here but I keep seeing people who are clearly feeling quilt tripped out of their minds about not doing enough. It is very concerning. What exactly do these ranty posters expect???
There was a period in 2016-2017 where I was really trying to be more involved in activism for a number of social justice issues, but I was also in a massive depressive episode and dealing with a lot of issues with black and white thinking. The way a lot of posts on tumblr were worded like 'hey you! Fuck you because everything you're doing or may even contemplate doing in future regarding activism is wrong somehow! Oh what you feel lonely and isolated? Well don't even think about mixing with anyone local to you who cares about similar issues because what if they disagree with you slightly??? That can't happen! Best not risk it.'
I don't know why people write stuff like this but I honestly find it basically locks up my brain until I can't do anything at all. And judging by some of the recent posting I've seen on here I'm not the only one. I'm not so affected now because I'm on better meds, and now I know a lot of activists IRL which has helped. Once I had recovered from the depressive episode I started getting involved in local environmental activism, as that is the main type of activism around here, and ignored the little voice in my head that I learned from tumblr saying I should get involved in more social justice oriented causes (which plain don't exist round here FYI). Turns out that people who care about one cause care broadly about most, even if they don't always get it right, and being in activist spaces in person helped me turn off the 'oh my god what if these people are...imperfect??!' inner monologue.
No one should have to justify their level of activism to you or anyone else. I'm not even going to give reasons why they may not be able to do more because everyone already knows and also because the whole line of thinking is flawed. Not posting about something does not make you complicit in it. Not exposing yourself constantly to the most disturbing and horrible news coming out of Gaza does not mean you are looking away from injustice. If your brain says that then flip the script on yourself- tell yourself that you personally looking at these things does not help anyone in Gaza. You feeling like shit helps no one.
I think people are much more able to stand up for causes they believe in when they are not being ground down by miserable guilt tripping. I think anyone who wants to avoid this needs to also avoid going along with the logic of these posts. Whether someone is doing a tonne of secret activism or no activism- it's not my business, and it's not for me to try and judge their heart and mind. Or for any of us.
#this unproofread post may not make much sense unless you have or are aware of a particular kind of OCD#just a warning- please take me in the same good faith you would want me to extend to you if you don't understand where i'm coming from#i am prepared to risk being misunderstood to write this anyway because i'm seeing a lot of warning signs in people#of the same mental state i was in in 2016-17#all this and i didn't even have time to write my thoughts about secret vs non-secret actions in activism#but basically i find any idea that actions eg. marches that are well known enough to talk about publically#being useless and all secret actions to be more legit and effective to be damaging#especially because it's very hard for outsiders to become involved in secret actions for obvious reasons!!#but also because i think it's not true#and thinking that is likely to make people who are trying to get involved give up and just do nothing

STOP DOING THIS IN INJURY FICS!!
Bleeding:
Blood is warm. if blood is cold, youâre really fucking feverish or the person is dead. itâs only sticky after it coagulates.
It smells! like iron, obv, but very metallic. heavy blood loss has a really potent smell, someone will notice.
Unless in a state of shock or fight-flight mode, a character will know theyâre bleeding. stop with the âi didnât even feel itâ yeah you did. drowsiness, confusion, pale complexion, nausea, clumsiness, and memory loss are symptoms to include.
blood flow ebbs. sometimes itâs really gushinâ, other times itâs a trickle. could be the same wound at different points.
itâs slow. use this to your advantage! more sad writer times hehehe.
Stab wounds:
I have been mildly impaled with rebar on an occasion, so let me explain from experience. being stabbed is bizarre af. your body is soft. you can squish it, feel it jiggle when you move. whatever just stabbed you? not jiggly. it feels stiff and numb after the pain fades. often, stab wounds lead to nerve damage. hands, arms, feet, neck, all have more motor nerve clusters than the torso. fingers may go numb or useless if a tendon is nicked.
also, bleeding takes FOREVER to stop, as mentioned above.
if the wound has an exit wound, like a bullet clean through or a spear through the whole limb, DONT REMOVE THE OBJECT. character will die. leave it, bandage around it. could be a good opportunity for some touchy touchy :)
whump writers - good opportunity for caretaker angst and fluff w/ trying to manhandle whumpee into a good position to access both sites
Concussion:
despite the amnesia and confusion, people ainât that articulate. even if theyâre mumbling about how much they love (person) - if thatâs ur trope - or a secret, itâs gonna make no sense. garbled nonsense, no full sentences, just a coupla words here and there.
if the concussion is mild, theyâre gonna feel fine. untilâŠ.bam! out like a light. kinda funny to witness, but also a good time for some caretaking fluff.
Fever:
you die at 110F. no 'oh no his fever is 120F!! ahhh!â no his fever is 0F because heâs fucking dead. you lose consciousness around 103, sometimes less if itâs a child. brain damage occurs at over 104.
ACTUAL SYMPTOMS:
sluggishness
seizures (severe)
inability to speak clearly
feeling chilly/shivering
nausea
pain
delirium
symptoms increase as fever rises. slow build that secret sickness! feverish people can be irritable, maybe a bit of sass followed by some hurt/comfort. never hurt anybody.
ALSO about fevers - they absolutely can cause hallucinations. Sometimes these alter memory and future memory processing. they're scary shit guys.
fevers are a big deal! bad shit can happen! milk that till its dry (chill out) and get some good hurt/comfort whumpee shit.
keep writing u sadistic nerds xox love you
ALSO I FORGOT LEMME ADD ON:
YOU DIE AT 85F
sorry I forgot. at that point for a sustained period of time you're too cold to survive.
pt 2
also please stop traumadumping in the notes/tags, that's not the point of this post. it's really upsetting to see on my feed, so i'm muting the notifs for this post. if you have a question about this post, dm me, but i don't want a constant influx of traumatic stories. xox

#tag talk#been doing some thinking now that I'm in a he/him state and very definitive ace for the foreseeable future#my therapist connected it back to validation and trauma response#because like.. the fawn response is very strong in me. but only when I'm she/her. he/him me is more fight#and a significant part of my sex drive is validation-seeking. the need to prove my competence at something.#and I still hyperfixate about sex regardless of whether or not I want to engage in it myself.#but the desire to engage in it feels more driven by a need to prove myself.#or prove to myself as the case may be#but the case fact remains that as R I feel a much higher social need whereas L feels much more independence#but L experiences much higher social anxiety and conflict versus R feeling much more social lubrication due to the fawn response#because I get the drive to make everyone like me. so much less anxiety because why worry? everyone loves me so no issue here#we're both flirty though. that doesn't change at all.#idk. how does this affect me going forward? how can I use this information to better live my life as happily as possible?#I definitely need to be more aware of the fawn response. I'm pretty on top of the reflexive fight response though.#I first recognized that back in 2019 so I've had plenty of time to work on it and I'm way less aggressive now than I used to be#but the people-pleasing is something I haven't really tackled yet so I guess that's my next big thing to analyze#maybe the answer is doing less to try and make people like me and accepting that I'm likeable anyway#but also recognizing that not everyone has to be in love with me#I don't need everyone to think I'm the best#I don't need to be in a popularity contest all the time#oh shit. I wonder if that's connected to my reaction after dipping my toes into polyamory.#because I have this drive to be the best compared to everyone else#and a drive to perform when I feel like I'm the center of attention#hmm. I feel like this is maybe connected to how I act when I'm groups. kind of an attention-whore#idk. I'm still pondering#anyway goodnight
