As most of you know, when the auntie vibe strikes I go with it. I was reblogging some of my ancient, ridiculous headcanons today. I love them and they make me giggle. They also reminded me of something about fandom culture that is very important to me:
These are characters. The actors are humans.
My long-time followers know that I don't post paparazzi pics intentionally, I don't participate in celebrity gossip, and I don't objectify the actors. Those are my boundaries.
These are real people, with real feelings. I have heard some things recently that disappointed me, so I thought it appropriate to couch this in my objectification of Aemond and Daemond so people could see why this is an important distinction.
Consent.
If an actor does a job and blesses us with the film/television series, then, I feel, those images and those characters are fair game for fanfiction, objectification, and silliness. However, that does not extend to images they did not consent to have publicized. I go further in my own boundaries and feel that it should not extend to the person themself in general.
I always use Matt as an example because, well, y'all know. He is a human and has feelings. He will likely never see the ridiculous things I write on here, but I still consider him with every keystroke. Same with Ewan and Austin. Off my blog I may very well think a candid pic of Austin is hot, but I can't imagine objectifying him if those photos weren't intended for me.
I'll keep this as brief as possible. How would you feel? If you found photos/videos you didn't consent to being passed around the internet even if you were fully clothed in them, would you be flattered, embarrassed, disappointed?
I like to think that any actor (especially Matt) would react to our unhinged fan stuff the way others have. I consistently reference Graham Norton showing guests fanfiction and fan art. Tom Hiddleston, Benedict Cumberbatch, Martin Freeman, James McAvoy, and Michael Fassbender (to name a few) all laughed and took it in stride. The characters are fictional, our dolls to play with in our imagination, the people are real.
Treat others how you want to be treated.

Sadly, I have to announce that there won’t be a 'kinkmas' this year due to all the stress I’m feeling because of school… :( I have literally every week at least one exam and I really need to focus on school this year, oops!
I hope I can do a third kinkmas next year or maybe a kinktober! :)
I will obviously still try my best to post as much as I can on tumblr and Patreon, but I sadly can’t promise anything! Let’s hope that all the stress is gone by the end of December! <3

Desc: As someone born into a famous family or attached to someone in the limelight there are many social expectations that are attached to someone & Many people expect everything from everyone. That’s the downside of befriending influencers, actors, singers, & also owning a bakery with your very known famous mother & step father.
Warnings: Smut in later chapters, Foul Language, Drinking, Angst, Violence, idiots in love, Childhood friends to lovers to exes to lovers, a possible pregnancy scare in later chapters, that’s all for now!

Catching up on Masters of the Air so I'm sharing a self-indulgent collection of gifs.
Y'all probably don't know how passionate I am about history and that I genuinely rock out to Glenn Miller. In The Mood is used in every period piece from the 1940s and I love it so much! (Not what's playing during this lovely gif but the song that opens the scene.)

I’m sure it’s no surprise that I haven’t really been writing much. I just haven’t had the inspiration or the motivation, tbh. But I haven’t forgotten about the requests that were sent to me. I’ve been trying to force myself to write, but that doesn’t work out well. But I’m hoping this will pass so I can get back to writing about my favorite person because I really miss it. 😭 Until then just enjoy my random posts about Elvis and Austin, lol.
Side note: Anyone tagging me in your fics I’m not ignoring them. I will be getting around to reading/reblogging them all and I can’t wait because they all look so good.
