Welcome to my whump-focused sideblog for all my whumpy thoughts! Here you'll find:
Whumpy photos, art, and gifsets (#inspiration)!
Whumpy askbox memes (#askbox; please note that many of these may be heavily slanted toward rp blogs!)
Whumpy writing prompts in general!
I will always tag the kind of whump involved in each post (ie - bruises, blood, strangling, captivity, etc.) so please consider the tags both a way to find the kind of whump you want and a way to filter out what you do not want to see. I will not use the #x for ts or #tw: x tagging convention since I would essentially have to double-tag everything.
Please read under the cut for this blog's guidelines!
Please feel free to:
Request askbox memes!
Send in your own prompt ideas!
Ask for recs for whumpy shows or films!
Tell me about your favorite whumpers/whumpees, including OCs!
Ask me about my favorite whumpers/whumpees!
Really, feel free to talk to me about anything through the askbox! (IMs are permanently closed, sorry.)
And please do let me know if any of my links are broken!
Please do not:
Send me askbox memes. I appreciate it, but this blog is a resource, not a place where I will post my writing beyond memes and prompts.
Send or request explicit NSFW whump prompts/memes. Intimate and suggestive whump is fine, but I am not personally comfortable with anything explicit.
Send actual gore or real life people being hurt. There is a marked difference between that and whump, and anything non-fictional will earn a block and possible report if it breaks Tumblr guidelines.
Additionally, please be aware that this blog will feature mature themes and may not be suitable for anyone under 18!
Thanks! Happy whumping!

MOVIE STARTERS VOL.19 SCOOBY-DOO: SPOOKY ISLAND JAMES GUNN
❛ It seems to me we all play an important part in this group. I mean, we're just like a big, delicious banana split. ❜
❛ So I got a little cranky! ❜
❛ I am so over this damsel in distress nonsense. ❜
❛ You're whipped! ❜
❛ Oh, yeah? Why don't you say that to my face, man! ❜
❛ Hey, I am a man of substance. Dorky chicks like you turn me on, too. ❜
❛ Those creatures are taking over the world...That's so mean. ❜
❛ Like, chill out. You didn't have to try and take over the whole world and destroy humanity. ❜
❛ Let's get jinky with it. ❜
❛ He's not in a bad mood, he's a monster. ❜
❛ Friends don't quit. ❜
❛ I've got a major wedgie. ❜
❛ We're here to solve a mystery. ❜
❛ I've transformed my body into a dangerous weapon. ❜
❛ I'm not helpless! I'm not helpless. --- ... I am helpless. I'm gonna die. ❜
❛ This is, like, the opposite of what I wanted to do today. ❜
❛ We don't go anywhere with 'scary', 'spooky', 'haunted', or 'forbidden' in the title. ❜
❛ Oh please. You get kidnapped so much you should come with your own ransom note. ❜
❛ Who's helpless now? ❜
❛ Kinda makes you nostalgic for the homicidal creatures, doesn't it? ❜
❛ Ghosts don't stand a chance with me, let me at ‘em. I'll rock 'em and I’ll sock 'em. ❜
❛ It's a cat with a bobbing head, please don't touch it. ❜
❛ For the thousandth time, there's no such thing as ghost. ❜
❛ Accident? You were marking your territory! ❜
❛ I always have a plan. Come on. ❜
❛ I would've gotten away with it, too, if it weren't for you! ❜
❛ I do not always get kidnapped. I can't believe you'd say that to me. ❜
❛ Now, wait a minute. Wait a minute. Maybe I quit. I do. Yeah, I quit! ❜
❛ Don't go. Come on, don't do this. Please, don't go. ❜
❛ Listen, man. Someone must have spiked my root beer last night. Talk me down, man. Talk me down. ❜

HOZIER’S “WASTELAND, BABY!” SENTENCE STARTERS
feel free to change pronouns, etc!
NINA CRIED POWER
‘ it’s not the waking, it’s the rising. ’
‘ it is the grounding of a foot uncompromising. ’
‘ it’s not forgoing of the lie, it’s not the opening of eyes. ’
‘ it’s not the shade; we should be past it. it’s the light, and it’s the obstacle that casts it. ’
‘ it’s the heat that drives the light. ’
‘ it’s the heaven of a human spirit ringing. ’
‘ and i could cry power. ’
‘ it’s not the wall, but what’s behind it. ’
‘ power has been cried by those stronger than me, straight into the face that tells you to rattle your chains if you love being free. ’
ALMOST (SWEET MUSIC)
‘ i came in from the outside, burned out from a joyride. ’
‘ the same kind of music haunts her bedroom. ’
‘ i’m almost me again. ’
‘ i’m almost me again. she’s almost you. ’
‘ i wouldn’t know where to start. ’
‘ be still my foolish heart. ’
‘ don’t ruin this on me. ’
‘ let’s get lost and let the good times roll. ’
‘ let’s smoke rings from this paper doll. ’
‘ i got some color back. ’
‘ i laugh like me again, she laughs like you. ’
‘ the very thought of you, and i am blue. ’
‘ i get along without you very well some other nights. ’
MOVEMENT
‘ i still watch you when you’re grooving. ’
‘ you’re moving without moving. ’
‘ when you move, i’m moved. ’
‘ you are a call to motion. ’
‘ when you move, i’m put to mind of all that i wanna be. ’
‘ i could never define all that you are to me. ’
‘ move me, baby. ’
‘ you do it naturally. ’
‘ honey, you’re atlas in his sleeping. ’
‘ i recall something that’s gone from me. ’
‘ when you move, i’m put in awe of something so flawed and free. ’
NO PLAN
‘ what a waste to say the heart could feel apart, or feel complete. ’
‘ why would you make out of words a cage for your own bird, when it sings so sweet the screaming, heaving fuckery of the world? ’
‘ why would you offer a name to the same old tired pain? ’
‘ all things come from nothing. ’
‘ my heart is thrilled by the still of your hand. ’
‘ i know now that you understand. ’
‘ there’s no plan. ’
‘ there’s no race to be run. ’
‘ the harder the rain, honey, the sweeter the sun. ’
‘ there’s no kingdom to come. ’
‘ i’ll be your man if you got love to get done. ’
‘ sit in and watch the sunlight fade. ’
‘ it’s getting late. ’
‘ there’s no hand on the rein. ’
‘ as mack explained, there will be darkness again. ’
‘ let the awful song be heard. ’
‘ i know your beat, baby. ’
‘ your secret is safe with me. ’
‘ if secrets were like seeds, keep my body from the fire, hire a gardener for my grave. ’
‘ if secrets were like seeds, when i’m lying under marble, marvel at flowers you’ll have made. ’
NOBODY
‘ it’s gin o’clock. ’
‘ i think about you everywhere i go. ’
‘ i’ve done everything and i’ve been everywhere. ’
‘ i’ve been fed gold by sweet fools. ’
‘ i’ve had no love like your love from nobody. ’
‘ i’d be appalled if i saw you ever try to be a saint. ’
‘ i wouldn’t fall for someone i thought couldn’t misbehave. ’
‘ i once warmed my hands over a burning maserati. ’
‘ why should we deny the truth? ’
‘ we could have less to worry about — i won’t lie to you. ’
TO NOISE MAKING (SING)
‘ remember when you’d sing just for the fuck of it? ’
‘ the look of it was as sweet as the sound. ’
‘ i couldn’t name that feeling carried in that voice — was it that, or just the act of making noise that brought you joy? ’
‘ you don’t have to sing it right, but who could call you wrong? ’
‘ put your emptiness to melody, your awful heart to song. ’
‘ you don’t have to sing it right. ’
‘ you don’t have to sing it right, but sing it strong. ’
‘ at best, you’ll find a little remedy. ’
‘ at worst, the world will sing along. ’
‘ we’d scuff up our shoes. ’
‘ you didn’t always sing it right. ’
‘ who could ask you to be unbroken or be brave again? ’
‘ be unbroken. ’
‘ be brave again. ’
‘ who could ask you to be sound or to feel saved again? ’
‘ stick around until you hear that music play again. ’
‘ so honey, sing. ’
‘ sing. ’
‘ remember when you’d sing just for the love of it? and any joy it would bring? ’
AS IT WAS
‘ there is a roadway, muddy and foxgloved, whenever i’d have life enough, my heart is screaming of. ’
‘ and in a few days, i would be there, love. ’
‘ whatever here that’s left of me is yours. ’
‘ the highs hit the heights of my baby, and its hold had the fight of my baby. ’
‘ the lights were as bright as my baby, ’
‘ your love was unmoved. ’
‘ tell me if, somehow, some of it remains, how long you would wait for me. ’
‘ make your good love known to me. ’
‘ tell me about your day. ’
‘ and the nights were as dark as my baby, and half as beautiful too. ’
SHRIKE
‘ i couldn’t utter my love when it counted. ’
‘ i couldn’t utter my love when it counted, but i’m singing like a bird about it now. ’
‘ i’m singing like a bird about it now. ’
‘ i couldn’t whisper when you needed it shouted. ’
‘ words hung above, but never would form — like a cry at the final breath that is drawn. ’
‘ remember me. ’
‘ remember me, love. ’
‘ remember me, love, when i’m reborn as a shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn. ’
‘ i’d no idea on what ground i was founded. ’
‘ all of that goodness is going with you now. ’
‘ then, when i met you, my virtues uncounted — all of my goodness is going with you now. ’
‘ all of my goodness is going with you now. ’
‘ dragging along, following your form, hung like the pelt of some prey you had won. ’
‘ i’m hung like the pelt of some prey you had one. ’
‘ remember me when i’m reborn as a shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn. ’
‘ i fled to the city with so much discounted. ’
‘ i fled to the city with so much discounted, but i’m flying like a bird to you now. ’
‘ i’m flying like a bird to you now. ’
‘ i’m flying like a bird to you now, back to the hedgerows where bodies are mounted. ’
‘ i was housed by your warmth. ’
‘ i was thus transformed by your grounded and giving and darkening scorn. ’
TALK
‘ i’d be the voice that urged orpheus when her body was found. i’d be the choiceless hope in grief that drove him underground. ’
‘ i’d be the dreadful need in the devotee. ’
‘ i’d be the immediate forgiveness in eurydice. ’
‘ imagine being loved by me. ’
‘ i won’t deny — i’ve got in my mind now all the things i would do. ’
‘ i try to talk refined for fear that you find out how i’m imagining you. ’
‘ i’d be the last shred of truth in the lost myth of true love. ’
‘ i’d be the sweet feeling of release. ’
BE
‘ be as you’ve always been. ’
‘ lover, be good to me. ’
‘ be like the love that discovered the sin, that freed the first man and will do so again. ’
‘ be that hopeful feeling when eden was lost. ’
‘ it’s been deaf to our laughter since the master was crossed. ’
‘ which side of the wall really suffers that cost? ’
‘ be love in its disrepute. ’
‘ love, in its disrepute, scorches the hillside and salts every root. ’
‘ watch the slowing and starving of troops. ’
‘ be like the rose that you hold in your hand, that will grow bold in a barren and desolate land. ’
‘ love, won’t you be as you’ve always been? ’
DINNER & DIATRIBES
‘ this club here is stuck up. ’
‘ i knew well from our first hookup the look of mischief in your eyes. ’
‘ your friends are a fate that befell me. ’
‘ hell is the talking type. ’
‘ i’d suffer hell if you’d tell me what you’d do to me tonight. ’
‘ that’s the kind of love i’ve been dreaming of. ’
‘ honey, i laugh when it sinks in. ’
‘ the evening is slowing. ’
‘ the end is in sight. ’
‘ it’s easier knowing what you’d do to me tonight. ’
‘ let there be hotel complaints and grievances raised. ’
‘ let there be damage ensued and tabloid news. ’
WOULD THAT I
‘ i saw your hair like the branch of a tree — a willow dancing on air before covering me. ’
‘ that love in withdrawal was the weeping of me. ’
‘ the sound of the saw must be known by the tree. ’
‘ i fretted fire, but that was long ago. ’
‘ i blink in sight of your blinding light. ’
‘ it’s not tonight where you hold me tight. ’
‘ you’re good to me. ’
‘ with the roar of the fire, my heart rose to its feet. ’
‘ like the ashes of ash, i saw rise in the heat. ’
‘ i fell in love with the fire long ago. ’
‘ with each love i cut loose, i was never the same. ’
‘ i’m watching still-living roots be consumed by the flame. ’
‘ i was fixed on your hand of gold laying waste to my loving long ago. ’
‘ in awe, there i stood. ’
‘ though i’ve handled the wood, i still worship the flame. ’
‘ as long as the amber of ember glows, all the would that i’d loved is long ago. ’
SUNLIGHT
‘ i would shun the light. ’
‘ share in evening’s cool and quiet. ’
‘ who would trade that hum of night for sunlight? ’
‘ but whose heart would not take flight? ’
‘ but whose heart would not take flight, betray the moon as acolyte, on first and fierce affirming sight of sunlight? ’
‘ i’d been lost to you. ’
‘ i flew like a moth to you. ’
‘ oh, your love is sunlight. ’
‘ all the tales the same, told before and told again. ’
‘ a soul that’s born in cold and rain knows sunlight. ’
‘ oh, my sunlight. ’
‘ all that was shown to me, sunlight, was something foreknown to me. ’
‘ all these colors fade for you only. ’
‘ hold me. ’
‘ carry me slowly. ’
‘ each day, you’d rise with me. ’
‘ know that i would gladly be the icarus to your certainty. ’
‘ strap the wing to me. death trap-clad, happily, with wax melted, i’d meet the sea. ’
WASTELAND, BABY!
‘ all the fear and the fire of the end of the world happens each time a boy falls in love with a girl. happens great, happens sweet. ’
‘ happily, i’m unfazed here, too. ’
‘ wasteland baby, i’m in love with you. ’
‘ baby, i’m in love with you. ’
‘ all the things yet to come are the things that have passed: like the holding of hands, like the breaking of glass. ’
‘ i’m in love with you. ’
‘ and i love too that love soon might end. ’
‘ be still, my indelible friend. you are unbreaking. ’
‘ you are unbreaking, though quaking. ’
‘ that day that we watch the death of the sun; the cloud and the cold and those jeans you have on. ’
‘ you gaze unafraid as they sob from the city ruins. ’
‘ the stench of the sea and the absence of green are the death of all things that are seen and unseen. ’
‘ not an end, but the start of all things that are left to do. ’
‘ that’s it. ’

ten songs I’ve been listening to lately
I was tagged by @callioope! I’ve been listening to music pretty much, uhhhhh, non-stop since it’s way too quiet around this apartment if I don’t have something on and if I’m watching TV, I’ll have to pay more attention to whatever show I’m watching than... anything else I’m trying to do. ANYWAY, songs I’ve been listening to, in no particular order:
1. “John Riley”; The Paul McKenna Band. Honestly, the whole album Stem the Tide is really great and reminds me a lot of the music I grew up listening to as a kid.
2. “The Maid on the Shore”; The Glengarry Bhoys. Speaking of music I grew up listening to, if you haven’t heard this song by these guys, it’s a DELIGHT. I wish more of their albums were on Spotify because I really loved this group as a kid and for some reason right now all I want to listen to is folk music and bagpipes.
3. THAT said, I have been listening to the soundtrack to The Last Kingdom pretty much non-stop because, um, I might have binge-watched that very recently and this soundtrack is MY JAM, Eivør please marry me, ahhhhhh, okay, if I have to pick one song off that soundtrack, let’s do “Lighting the Beacons”; John Lunn & Eivør
4. I, too, am obsessed with the OST for The Witcher to the point where I have a playlist that combines both the soundtracks for the show and The Witcher III, despite having never played the game. So show track: “Blaviken Inn”... or “The End’s Beginning”... or “Bonfire”... the whole album.........
5. Special shout-out to “The Fishmonger’s Daughter” because it makes me laugh and it’s just damn catchy, you know?
6. “Her Sweet Kiss” is also VERY GOOD and underrated in the face of “Toss a Coin to Your Witcher”. A whole album of Jaskier’s bard songs WHEN
7. Okay, but Witcher III soundtrack: “Commanding the Fury”; Mikolai Stroinski... or “Forged in Fire”... or “Silver for Monsters...” / “... Steel for Humans” Honestly, if you’re loving the show’s soundtrack, definitely check out the video game’s OST because it’s equally as good
8. “Moch Sa Mhadainn (feat. Griogair Labhruidh)”; Bear McCreary off the Outlander soundtrack... I’ve been listening to a lot of Gaelic & Gaelige songs lately, but this one is a constant
9. Same vein: “Óró, sé do bheatha 'bhaile” and “Gaol ise gaol i (She’s My Love)”
10. If you have not experienced the excellence that is the Assassin’s Creed Black Flag soundtrack, please check that out immediately because it’s a HIGHLIGHT on my Akallabêth Campaign Inspiration playlist, by which I mean, the majority of this soundtrack is on there. Highlights include: “Pyrates Beware” and “In This World or the One Below”
Bonus 11. I’ve gotta put a sea shanty on here because “Leave Her Johnny” and “Katie Cruel” get stuck in my head often when I’m going through the AC Sea Shanties songs, please go check those out if you’re into that sort of thing
I’m not very into tagging people in these sorts of things, but I will tag @eisoj5 @laurenplayspeople and @dwarveslikeshinythings. Whoever else would like to do this meme, consider yourself tagged! I know music is helping me stay sane, so please! Tell me what you’re listening to during these weird fucking times!!!!

31 & 41
31. do you use subtitles while watching TV if you can?
god yes. I have been known many times to watch tv shows on my phone on mute with the subtitles on because I just prefer it. plus I can’t always make out what people say. I don’t know if i have some kind of auditory processing problem but it takes me a while to process speech most of the time.
not to mention my ears have been giving me hell for like two weeks so I’ve been forced to always use subtitles. it’s no longer something that helps me watch a show, it’s more something that’s necessary for me to watch a show.
41. if you could change 1 detail about any show, what would you change and why?
arrow: laurel lance didn’t die on earth 1 - she faked her death and went to live with nyssa on the canary islands
supergirl: mayo el never existed
the flash: savitar was never a thing
legends of tomorrow: zari is written by actual muslim people in the writers room and isn’t royally screwed over time and time again
killjoys: dutch and johnny kissed at least once and they both just pretend it never happened bc they’re both scared of how much they love each other
the punisher: season 2 never happens and frank lives a quiet(er) life as pete castiglione happily ever after with karen
defenders: elektra never died in midland circle and she eventually finds matt again and never lets him go
supernatural: sam really dies and goes to hell in lucifer’s cage, and dean is a wreck at first but keeps his promise to sam that he’ll try and be happy with lisa. season 6 onwards never happen.
tv show ask game

Kat & Shaundi: 3, 6, 13; Pierce & Jo: 5, 7, 11; Aisha & Reina & Gat: 2, 10, 14
(Oh hi. *sock-slides into you*)
3. They end up going to a party? What couple are they? Ex- Clinging to one another? Just there to steal some free food and leave? Both want to party?
Depends on the party. If it’s anything like the one Pierce threw in SR3 (minus the assassins) they’re probably both down to party. Fancy cocktail party? Shaundi is walking around talking to people and doing the famous person thing and Kat’s just there to go *heart-eyes* and eat food.
6. Who would be more likely to hug their partner and pick them up off the ground?
Shaundi is slightly taller, especially in heels, so she might do it. Kat would be inclined to do it, except she’s the smol one.
13. What is a memory they share together that makes them both laugh so hard they cry when they think about it?
When Kat met Shaundi in gameplay, the car that spawned for ‘do stunts to impress her and recruit her’ bit was a banana yellow Bootlegger, ridiculous rear spoiler and all. The ‘Banana Car’ still makes them laugh.
5. Where is their number one date spot? Why do they love it so much there?
Assuming post SR4 for this, there’s a swanky little restaurant somewhere in slightly-future New York; private, they’re mostly able to go incognito and just be themselves, not famous people.
7. If one partner isn’t the best at communicating their feelings, how do they show their feelings to their significant other in other ways?
These two are pretty open book, though Pierce’s go to is always music if he can’t put it into words.
11. What is something small, but cute they do for one another? Ex - leave cute encouraging notes for one another on the counter.
If she’s up first, Jo will leave a heart drawn in lipstick on the bathroom mirror.
2. Who falls asleep on the couch and who puts a blanket over them?
Aisha, usually, because those two are usually out running the streets or whatever they get up to. Whoever gets in the house first will tuck her in.
10. Where did they confess that they loved one another?
In a very long, rambling sort of conversation in Aisha’s living room. Reina wouldn’t have ever interfered in the Aisha/Gat relationship and would’ve sat on the sidelines, but Aisha noticed.
14. They are having a water balloon fight, who wins and how do they deliver the winning shot?
(How do you “win” a water balloon fight? Can you win one? IDK). Anyway, if it’s not Johnny because apparently he’s bordering on superhuman, it’s probably Aisha, because I imagine she’s better at sneaking than either of those two.

Lizzington: one of them gets a little tipsy and the other has to be care-taker
“I am not drunk,” she says, a little too loudly, “you’re drunk,” and Reddington merely raises his eyebrows, mouth pressed tight against a suppressed smile. He pulls her back by the elbow when she tries to get off the elevator at the wrong floor—“Are you sure that isn’t a nine?” “I’m certain, Lizzy.”—and when it jolts upward, she stumbles into him. He steadies her and doesn’t let go, which is a good thing, because she can’t figure out how to make her hands let go of him, either. He smells very nice, too, Liz thinks absently, and she kind of likes this, being so close to him, to that smile she so loves to see.
Then, a sharp intake of breath: he looks at her, and it isn’t until she sees the faint flush creeping up his neck that she realises she’d said it all aloud.

send me a character/pairing + a prompt & i’ll write you something in five sentences or less

The rentry (linked above) includes some "DNI" stuff but some hellsite specific People I Don't Really Like include: People who start label discourse that demonizes lesbians and nobody else — endo system yappers — People who include rape/pedophilia/incest in kink positivity — People who like to make and spread bullshit ass callouts about trans women — transandrophobia and misandry/transmisandry yappers — Y'all who say "puriteen" unironically and dumb down sex negativity in society to being "puritan" you are so annoying — terfs, transmeds and truscum if it wasn't obvious (I call y'all the terrible Ts) — An extra, but minors interact with caution! I tag explicit or suggestive stuff as "minors dni" but I don't post that kind of content enough to justify banning y'all, just stay safe and mute that tag.
We are an OSDD system, however for our safety we are now keeping information on each specific alter exclusive to friends. Please call us Sidon and use it/its.

That all being said I don't go out of my way to post about any of this stuff unless it's the lesbian stuff, because I'm a lesbian and I'm passionate about that. I block weirdos on my own time and this is mostly here so these people don't follow me and then send me anon hate when I post an opinion they don't like. Thank youuuu :3c

MOVIE STARTERS VOL.18 MIDSOMMAR ARI ASTER
❛ So we’re just gonna ignore the bear then? ❜
❛ Do you feel held by him? Does he feel like home to you? ❜
❛ Hi. Hello! There you are! Listen: You can't speak. You can't move. ❜
❛ We have this dance competition and the winner gets crowned. ❜
❛ As an offering for our Father, we will today surrender nine human lives. ❜
❛ You will today be joined in harmony with Everything. ❜
❛ Maybe you can redeem this! ❜
❛ Do you think I don't know what you're doing? It's actually kind of outrageously unsubtle, the fact that you're being this bold about it, I'm honestly kind of impressed? ❜
❛ It makes him open, for the source. ❜
❛ Do you think that there is a masochistic part of you that is playing out this particular drama to avoid the work you actually need to be doing? ❜
❛ Wow, okay, thanks for the psychoanalysis. ❜
❛ You know, I’m very, very glad you’re coming. I think it’s very good you’re coming. ❜
❛ You know that what you’re doing is unethical, and leechy, and lazy. And, frankly, it’s kind of sad. ❜
❛ But I have always felt held. By a family. A real family. Which everyone deserves. And you deserve. ❜
❛ Are you not disturbed by what we just saw? ❜
❛ The Queen must ride alone. ❜
❛ You know what, um, I’m worried I’ll have a bad trip. ❜
❛ What? Okay, relax. Relax! What did I do? ❜
❛ I think we really need to just at least try to acclimate. ❜
❛ Hey. How you doing? Today was tough. Are you going to be okay? ❜
❛ And yet, I was the most excited for you to come. ❜
❛ I’m really sorry. Thank you for inviting me, but I really have to go. Can someone maybe drive me somewhere? ❜
❛ We’re going to stand until it’s right to sit. ❜
❛ Wait, you’re not talking about an actual one? ❜
❛ Tomorrow’s a big day. ❜
❛ You’ll get a better sense tomorrow. ❜
❛ That can’t be right! The sky is blue! ❜
❛ That feels wrong. I don’t like that! ❜
❛ That’s not fine! Why is it like that? ❜
❛ That’s an interesting symbol. ❜

12, 19, 25, 47, 55, 86, 87 for unusual asks?
!! thank you!! :D
12: what size bed do you have?
Queen size, I think? It’s an old bed my parents used to use. It fits me and my stuff.
19: shoe size?
9.5, just to be safe.
25: what color socks are you wearing?
White with orange fox designs on them!
47: what type of house do you live in?
I live in a four-level split. It was built in the ‘80s. It looks a lot like the other houses on this side of the street, except this house is brown.
55: what is your dream job?
Something where I have reasonable creative/editorial control over writing—preferably my own, and preferably news-type copy.
86: what is your phone background?
Sugilite from Steven Universe!
87: are you outgoing or shy?
No. I’ll go with shy, just because I am naturally reserved and, at times, apprehensive. That said, it’s less that I’m “shy” and more that I’m a cocktail of introversion and mental illness.

Good morning!!!!
@sleepykalena asked: RCSW ask meme #8? (We can pretend the #8 from the last ask was actually meant for this one all along ;D)
8. What is one piece of advice you’d give other authors/artists?
Oh man, advice?? On writing smut?? Dang, uh, well, I wouldn’t dream to call myself qualified to give anyone advice, but… lemme think…
I think I have maybe two things to say:
1) this is kinda a general note, but find at least one good beta if you can that’ll encourage you, assure you what you’ve written isn’t stilted, and that you’re okay on the number of hands and legs involved! I always worry about those things and it’s really good to have a second pair of eyes reading my stuff over. I feel WAY more confident in my work once my beta has looked it over, even just quickly to say it doesn’t sound dumb!
2) that said, I think the focus of smut scenes is best placed on Feelings and whatever emotional rush you’re trying to convey, so also don’t panic too much over getting every single exact detail of the mechanics of the sex act(s) you’re writing.
Wait, okay, maybe one more thing:
3) POST THE THING. Don’t be embarrassed to hit the post button!!!! XD
