Joe Keery NSFW ABC

As I'm trying to grow this account, I really do appreciate reblogs, follows and letting me know who else you guys want to see?

A - After Sex

If you’re in a relationship, he likes to cuddle and just enjoy each other’s company afterwards. If not, he’ll probably get out of there to avoid your parents.

B - Bottom or Top

If you want to make him a more submissive, just tug on his hair. However, he’s usually the top and takes the dominant position.

C - Cum

Joe likes to cum in your hair but hates when it is done in return - that’s practically a dealbreaker for him unless its an accident. Though, it normally throws him off of his charm.

D - Dress Up

He secretly likes dressing up in the sailor costume that he kept but that’s usually only far in a relationship. He’ll also let you call him Steve in it if you ask nicely.

E - Experience

He’s got quite a bit of experience with a lot of different women but with the amount of times he’s been with Joseph Quinn, it has evened the field.

F - Favourite Bodypart

Hair, both his own and other people’s.

G - Gag Reflex

Joe’s got a normal gag reflex of about 5 inches.

H - Hair

Joe does grow out his chest hair as it makes him feel quite manly and it draws more attention. He does shave it from time to time as it is preferred when he’s acting.

I - Intimacy

Joe is quite intimate but there are various dealbreakers that he has that are pretty set in stone.

J - Jerking

Doesn’t really have the time but if he’s on set with Quinn than it might be more than usual.

K - Kinks

He does occasionally like fucking you in between scenes but those tend to be quickies. He much likes seeing you walking about after with a little limp in your step.

L - Lube

Joe likes making it comfortable and uses lube.

M - Massages

It isn’t really a thing that he does. But, it does get him in the mood after a long day on set which tends to be helpful - just watching the tent rise as you rub his shoulders.

N - Nopes

Comes back to being called Steve or mistaken for his character in general. There’s also people who come to him for the fame or asking to meet the other cast members. If you want to be fucked silly by both him and Joseph then you have to earn it, not ask for it.

O - Oral

The one thing that you can count on is his mouth all over you and he wants the same in return. It takes a while to get him to stop talking every other second that he’s got his tongue in you.

P - Position/Place

He loves fucking you on set, in dressing rooms etc.

He prefers to fuck you in reverse cowboy/cowgirl.

Q - Quickies

Big fan of quickies and if it happens to be that you’re walking around with his cum leaking then all the better.

R - Risky

Extremely risky and is very likely to have a video leaked in the future but he keeps on promising that it is safe so he can fuck you more in public.

S - Sexts

All the time, especially when he’s with Joseph. It might be a dick pick or it might be an ass pic - hell, might even be him jerking off. He loves sending dirty messages when he can see how you’re reacting from afar.

T - Toys

The pairs of handcuffs hanging off his bed at the moment are telling of what he does to you every night in his own bed.

U - Underwear

Joe sticks to boxers - although you can sometimes bribe him in the morning with a blowjob to go jockstrap instead.

V - Volume

He’s rather quiet in bed surprisingly, although you likes hearing a lot of noises and it keeps him turned on.

W - Wrecking Ball

Joe isn’t particularly rough unless things on set were really rough, then he wants to fuck you silly several times. There was that one time you broke the bed frame, the same night that he fell asleep while in you.

X - X-Ray

Joe’s got a 6 inch, narrow, cut cock. He grows out his pubes with the occasional clean-up trim.

Y - Yep

He really likes a long kiss when you grip his hair and grab his ass, your body practically attached to his. Probably will end with him picking you up and fucking you till the wall has a hole in it.

 Z - Zest

Joe isn’t the horniest of people but he’s down to fuck at least two or three times a week.

Soft and Supple

Pairing: wolf!Bucky Barnes x bunny!reader

Warnings: dubcon, breeding, some a/b/o references, dirty talk, degradation.

Words: 1317.

Summary: The Big Bad Wolf was going to get you this time.

P.S. Please don't even ask me why 😩😩

__________

“Where are you going, baby?”

You could feel him hovering over you from behind, his arms getting restless as he cupped your breasts, breathing in your neck - you could feel the airy touch of his lips on your gentle skin. That cocky bastard had the audacity to fondle you in broad daylight like some pervert! Desperately trying to get away from Bucky, a wolf living in the forest close to the market where you were heading to buy some food, you squirmed when he turned your head towards him to give you a heated kiss, silencing your protests.

If a stranger saw you, they would call for help, but you knew it was useless: first, no one would hear you deep in the woods; second, it wasn’t the first time Bucky was doing that to you, but he had never gone further from there, usually slapping your ass and letting you run away as fast as you could, mocking you with his whistling or yelling something dirty. It looked insane, but you felt it was his way to communicate - in the end, he was a wolf, and you were born a little, weak bunny. His instincts kicked in every time he saw you.

“I’m... I’m not y-your baby.” you mewled when he finally let go of your lips, grinning at you like a predator willing to play with its prey. “You have to stop it! We’re n-not some savages.”

“Yeah? Would you like me to eat you like a Big Bag Wolf should, baby?” his breath was warming your long bunny ear, and you giggled, unable to hide your reaction from him. “Don’t tell me you don’t wanna fuck, bunny girl. You’ve been wagging that sweet fluffy tail in front of me the whole time like a slut.”

Oh, he was really getting riled up today, you thought and glanced back at him, shaking a little: while he would manhandle you every time you passed through this part of the forest, Bucky had never forced you to have sex with him. It looked like he was barely holding on today, his long rock-hard cock rubbing against your ass.

“Bucky, please. I was just passing by.” You muttered when he lowered his lips to your neck, his sharp teeth scraping it a little and drawing a pained sigh from you.

Shit, his hand was quickly travelling down your stomach: he cupped your pussy through the fabric of your shorts, leaving a hungry kiss on your neck and making you shiver with want, your hormones raging, making it even harder to resist him. Nonono, you couldn’t do it, you couldn’t submit to that damn cocky wolf who had been harassing you for months and was really going to rape you this time. You had to get out and report him, make police issue a restriction order or something, anything to keep Bucky away...

“There are lots of paths through the forest, but every time you come to my house like a girl who can’t help herself, knowing what’s gonna happen.”

He already had you pinned against the wall, your basket dropped somewhere to the ground, but you could barely focus when the wolf grabbed your ears, pinching them between his calloused fingers and making you squirm like a pathetic little bunny you were. It’s your weak spot, those damn soft, overly sensitive ears Bucky kept massaging with his thumb, making your knees tremble. Shit, shit, shit, it’s so good when he’s doing that, it’s so good your pussy got wet in a couple of seconds.

“I’ve heard pretty bunnies like you can cum real hard from just a small tickling of their ears. That’s true, baby? You gonna cum for me?” He tainted you, his lips ghosting over yours when he stared you in the eyes, watching you giving him a cute little sob, your lower lip quivering.

You wanted to tell him to leave you alone, let you go and never do this again to you, but you couldn’t, you couldn’t say anything but mewl when he stroked your soft, fluffy ears, his rough hands playing with them so good it turned off your brain, your juices leaking to the point Bucky could see the stains on your shorts, getting hungry for more. He then massaged them harder, pressing his thumbs to the inner part of your long ears, punching them with his fingers, crumpling their ends until you let out a high-pitched moan all of a sudden and started cumming right in front of him, your eyes rolling back into your skull when you opened your mouth, showing the wolf your little bunny tongue.

“Shit. Didn’t know it was true.” He muttered at the sight of you, your knees trembling as you quickly slumped down, unable to keep yourself standing - your shorts had been so stained Bucky wondered if it were easier to just throw them away rather than make them presentable again. “Oh baby, we’re gonna have so much fun.”

He was going to knot you. Shit, he was going to get his knot so deep inside you that you’d cum just from it alone, dumb little baby who had been flaunting her pretty tail in front of him for so long, hoping he’d dick you down and fill you up real good. You didn’t even realize you had been in heat, but Bucky wasn’t angry at you: he knew his baby bunny was too dumb to admit she needed a good mate and a good fuck. Luckily, your hormones worked better than your brain, so you would pass in front of his house every time your little pussy throbbed, giving him a good look at you. Sure, you acted like you didn’t want it, a fucking tease, but Bucky knew what he needed to do.

It just took him a bit more time to reorganize the rooms: his own desperately needed a makeover since you’d share it with him soon enough, and the nursery had to be built from scratch. Dumb little bunny, you had no idea how hard it was for a wolf like him to keep calm, stopping himself from jumping at you the second you walked near his house. Bunnies like you wanted to fuck till they could no longer speak, but wolves like him had to take care of their families, providing for them so that their sweet little babies would live in a safe place and have food on the table. Bucky didn't blame you, though. You were his cute, dumb bunny who needed a strong and smart wolf like him to live a good life.

"Bu-Bucky." you squirmed when he took you in his arms, lifting your from the ground and barging in the house, getting straight up to the room he finished renovated just yesterday, a new comfy bed awaiting for you two. "We c-can't do that... What if I get pregnant?"

"Of course, you'll get pregnant after you milk my cock like a good bunny girl you are." he growled into your ear, stripping you of your clothes, watching your wet throbbing pussy asking for a cock when he started fingering you just in case your cunt wasn't loose enough to fit him all, his knot getting painfully big. "How many babies you gonna give me, huh? Three? Four? Maybe more if I knock you up well?"

When you tried talking some sense into him, putting your arm on his chest to keep him away but ending up softly caressing it, Bucky sent you a wolfish grin, bottoming you out in one thrust - he couldn't wait a second longer, his own instincts taking over him when he started fucking you into his bed, loosening your leaking cunt for his fat knot. Oh, your sweet bunny pussy was the best. He'd make sure he got you knocked up the first time he filled your cunt with his cum.

As for your celebration, what about the alphabet for Kakashi? 🥰

Kakashi X Reader | A-Z Headcanon

Masterlist

A-Z Headcanon

Warning: 18+ Content

A = Aftercare (What they’re like after sex)

Once you two are done and tired, he's gonna take a moment and then turn over to you to smile and adore how flushed you look. He usually kisses your forehead and then pulls you into his chest. Once you two are all calmed down. "You want to hop in the shower baby?" Still running his one hand through your hair. If you say you want to rest a bit more, he gets up to get you water and towels, or if you say yes then expect a "Round 2?" joke on your way, which wasn't actually a joke.

B = Body part (Their favorite body part of their partner’s)

Your thighs! Doesn't matter if you have thick thighs or not he likes to grab them while you're on top or you two are just chilling and he is running his hand through them and they slip certain places "by accident"

In a non-sexual way, it is your hair, for sure. He likes to bury his face in them because the scent of the fresh shampoo is relaxing to him. If you change your shampoo he'll notice it right away, expect a new bottle of the same shampoo on the shelf next to your new one the next day.

C = Cuddling

Cuddling with this man is a dream! He likes to be all over you with one leg over yours and your face buried in his chest. Even if you are being the small spoon, his one leg will be over you and your head resting on one of his arm and his other arm over your shoulder pulling you closer to his chest.

Whenever you two are on a nap date, his hand is always resting on you. He becomes restless when he can't find you but calms down after finding you on the other side of the bed. Then just keeps his palm on you rather than pulling you in and waking you up.

D = Dirty Secret

This one time, you two had an idea of taking some nudes together just for fun to see whose turns out to be the better one. You both set a rule to get rid of them after the winner was announced, which never happened since you two were so turned on in the process that you two ended up doing it. You forgot it but he still has your photo with him. Shut up, it helps him on long missions.

E = Experience 

He was not a virgin, but he wasn't much experienced either. If you want to know more about this scenario find it here.

In starting he kept things vanilla, he didn't want to freak you out. But you wanted more but that was the case with you too so this one time you stole his Itcha Itcha to read what type of stuff he was into. AND YOU ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT. You had to read it as fast as you can because he'd notice that it was missing.

And when you suggested something, it was a shock to him because he knows exactly how to do it but to ACTUALLY experience it and that too with YOU? The guy was in actual heaven that day.

F = Favourite Position 

It depends, he is a tease so he likes when you do all the work but just wait till he has your image of having one leg over his shoulder while he's pounding into you and you're all flustered, aaaaand the guy is pinning you down and going at it.

Or if he is IN THE MOOD he's gonna start with you on all fours and will end up having you burring your face in the pillow.

G = Goofy

Hehe he is the best type of goofy. He says the jokes with a straight face while everyone is on the floor dying. He only lets out a small laugh when you are laughing your "so-called ugly laugh" in front of others too.

But sometimes he starts laughing even before cracking the joke because it was that funny, "Oh boy, naah it's nothing" he says wiping a tear, off his one eye. You all will beg him but according to him "the moment is gone" lol he IS a tease.

H = Hair 

His hair is sooooo fluffy! And after how little he looks after them? It is almost a joke on you. You take care of your hair a lot but this guy probably washes it with body wash and still has such good quality. He always says that it is a good diet to trick you into healthy eating too. This guy never misses a chance to do that.

I = Intimacy 

Your emotional intimacy is something that is beyond this world. You both never knew that you were capable of feeling emotions so strongly.  You're hurt? He feels this burning feeling in his heart that he can't get rid of. He is having a nightmare? It breaks your heart that you cannot do anything about what he had to go through.

Not for once have you two felt any sort of negative emotions to one another but just love and CARE! You love your people but for the first time, you've felt that "care" not from the words but actions. 

For the first time, you two have felt that you don't have to do everything on your own, you can divide it and let your guard down for a moment because you know that other one will be there if something goes wrong.

J = Jack Off 

He does it normally when he is out on a mission or away from you for a while. One thought of you can turn him on in that case.

K = Kink (One or more of their kinks)

Ohohoho where should I even start? He LOVES to handcuff you because that just gives him more power over what he wants you to feel. Which is why he likes blindfold too.

As your relationship grows he likes the risk factor too so he likes to do it in a tricky place. But while making sure that your reputation doesn't get compromised at any cost.

L = Location (Favourite places to do they do)

Umm isn't it obvious? Anywhere? Literally. But he loves to bend you over the kitchen counter and take you then and there as he enters the house and finds you cooking or just having a drink or something.

M = Motivation (What turns them on, gets them going)

He will do anything you ask for while doing it to make sure that he will be able to see that face of yours when you have just let go and you're too flustered to even care. It shows him that you are enjoying it.

Or if it is just you pleasing him and you look up to him with "puppy eyes" heh don't blame him for what is about to happen to you.

N = NO (Something they wouldn’t do, turn-offs)

You risking your reputation for the "risk factor". See, everyone sees you highly in the village and he loves the respect that they give you. He WILL NEVER ruin it just because he is feeling it right now and won't let you do the same too.

O = Oral (Preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc)

It may not seem like it but he LOVES to give it to you. Actually, if this time it is more of a sensual one then he always starts with eating you only. It is his way of showing that you're his priority.

He has long fingers so umm ya. You're overstimulated most of the time. As much as he loves seeing this, he holds your hand with one while the other one is pumping in and out of you as he plays with your clit with his tongue.

He loves to hold one hand with you even while he is eating you out. Wow.

P = Pace (Are they fast and rough? Slow and sensual? etc.)

He starts with "slow as death" ones and then once you're begging to him theeen he goes fast and deep. You ARE lucky to have him honestly :')

Q = Quickie (Their opinions on quickies rather than proper sex, how often, etc.)

You don't even have to say anything? You are looking good before you two go out? You'll be doing it before leaving the house.

It's not his fault! You look too good, it's your fault.

And sometimes these quickies turn into something more and you two end up staying home.

R = Risk (Are they game to experiment, do they take risks, etc.)

Risk who? That's all I'm gonna say.

S = Stamina 

He can go for a lot of rounds. But if he is just back from the mission or has been busy all day and now he is tired. Please don't push him. Not because he is a "poor guy" or something, nooooo, this idiot will get horny and do it anyway. But regret in the morning because he didn't take enough rest.

T = Toy

He bought it only when you two started experimenting so you both have handcuffs (used for you only he doesn't like to be a sub that often), a blindfold, and a vibrator for sure. This fucker likes to edge you a lot.

U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)

Heh isn't it clear already? This guy is the definition of being unfair. As you start to get a little annoyed and turn to him and catch him smirking, all that "annoyance" turns into "lust" lol you simp! But can we really blame you?

V = Volume (How loud they are, what sounds they make)

If you are doing it somewhere out? He'll keep shut and even cover your mouth to avoid getting caught. But if he is at home, he will grunt a lot but will let out a loud moan once he reaches his high

W = Wild Card (Just a random headcanon because I cannot think of anything starting with W)

He cooks for you in the morning. That is the only time he can make sure that you have a good healthy meal since he is not there for lunch and you make the dinner.

If he is cooking in the morning then expect your lunch prepared for you too.  *and meal prep for dinner* bro he wants to make sure that you are taking care of yourself because you work too hard okay? Shut up and have your fruits and drink some water as you read this...... Go now, sip some water.

X = X-Ray

He has a lean physique but specifically, his arms are muscular and they are getting buffer after you mention that you like buffed arms. Hehe being slick, okayyyy.

Also, he has long slim fingers, umm good for you.

But you like to draw in his hands too sometimes. Just some little things. He smiles at them as he looks at them later.

Y = Yearning (How high is their sex drive?)

He kind of has a strong sex drive. Most of the time if it is because of the fact that he is too excited to try new things on you.

Z = ZZZ (… how quickly they fall asleep afterward)

He doesn't sleep until he knows that you are sound asleep. He likes to take in the scent of your hair and just run his fingers through your hair to calm you down a bit. Do it back too, please. He loves it a lot! If you stop and start doing something else, he'll bring back your hand to his hair and make you do it for as long as you don't fall asleep. In any case, he is sleeping once you're asleep.

NSFW alphabet | Chris Evans

Please note that my stories are not to be stolen or reposted on any other site. Reblogs are welcome. This blog and this story is 18+. Do not read, follow or interact if you are not 18+.

Note - This is written just for fun. I don't know Chris or what he likes lol. I also don't own the alphabet format.

Dividers by @whimsicalrogers

Warnings - rpf, smut, daddy kink, d/s relationship, dom Chris, anal stuff, semi public sex, spanking, sex toys, praise kink.

Word count - 2.5k

A=Aftercare (What they’re like after sex)

Chris is clingy as fuck after sex. He’ll hold you close to his heart (you being the lil spoon of course) and not let go the entire night. With soft kisses on your face, hair and on any bruises he might have left on you. With some pillow talk about how his love for you can overwhelm him sometimes, that he can’t imagine not having you not that he gets to have a taste of you almost every night. Sometimes he likes to listen to you talk about your day, or share a deep secret you hadn’t told anyone else.

His clinginess is something you adore. Something which you would usually be fine with, how he just could not keep his hands off of you, but when you’re somewhere tropical and hot it becomes a bit of a problem.

You were visiting him while he was filming for red Sea diving resort, after seeing him in the beard and the longer hair you couldn’t help yourself and you just jumped on him. After some hot and sweaty sex, you had moved away from him a little, with your back to him you wiped the sheen off of your forehead with the back of your hand, trying to fan yourself with your own hand, ‘Where do you think you’re going?’ he had growled. Not wanting even an inch of distance between the two of you. You tried to protest because you needed to cool off but eventually gave in.

B=Body Part (Their favorite body part)

Everyone knows the answer to this. He likes your ass the most. It doesn’t matter if it’s a flat ass or a thick one he’ll love it the same because it’s a part of you. He likes to smack it, he likes looking at it, he may even like to fuck it. Some stretch marks would just be the cherry on top.

His next favorite would have to be your hips. He loves to see their silhouette through your yoga pants or jeans, or even a dress. After a night of some rough fucking they usually bear his handprints which he loves obviously because it’s almost like he branded you as his own.

C=Cum (Anything to do with cum basically... I’m a disgusting person)

It’s always a battle with the two of you when it comes to cumming. Because Chris likes to see your body covered in his seed, particularly your face, ass and breasts, and you like to have him do it inside you, be it your pussy or your mouth.

Which he doesn’t mind obviously, he likes the idea of his spend being in your tummy, but he also likes taking pictures of your ass covered with his spunk. You just look so pretty when he comes on your face🥺

D=Dirty Secret (Pretty self explanatory)

Chris has fucked you in more bathrooms than you can remember. It’s become a thing or almost a ritual now. Whenever he takes you to an event or a party, or just a casual dinner at his family or friends house, you’ll end up on your knees in the bathroom with his dick in your mouth, or he’ll worship you and eat you out till you literally can’t even walk straight.

It started when you accompanied him to an important event, he was extremely anxious. And you felt helpless because you didn’t know how to make him feel better. But you did know one thing that always lifts his mood up. So you dragged him to the men’s room and sucked him off. He was much relaxed the rest for the evening thanks to you.

E= Experience (How experienced are they?)

VERY. He’s extremely experienced. He has a lot of knowledge and puts it to good use on you. Which can be a little daunting if you’re more on the inexperienced side but don’t ne afraid. He’ll train you really well, you just have to be a good girl and listen.

F= Favorite Position

His favorite position would be doggy style. Where he’s doing from behind, with you on your hands and knees, or with your head down and ass perched up to him because you never can stay up right when he’s doing you so well. He has full access to your ass, if you’re okay with it he would use his fingers on you, spank your ass. He loves to grab your hips or your ass and your breasts.

He’s also a huge fan of missionary. Because he can’t see your pretty face, or look into your eyes from behind. Most days he wants intimacy and to show you how much he loves you.

G = Goofy (Are they more serious in the moment, or are they humorous, etc.)

Depends on his mood. Sometimes he’s a bit goofy, like talking in a comically exaggerated Boston accent when you told him you liked the sound of his voice and how his accent becomes more prominent when he is horny.

But most of the times, he’s in control. He has to maintain some composure so you wouldn’t question who’s really in charge or think that you could get away with anything. Because you know how to make him laugh, and if he let’s you do that he couldn’t keep a straight face while punishing you.

H = Hair (How well groomed are they, does the carpet match the drapes, etc.)

Chris has dark Brown pubic hair, like that of his beard and the hair on his head.

Does anyone remember that term ‘manscaping'? Where dudes trim their pubic hair to make their dicks look bigger. Chris definitely does that. Although he doesn’t need to because like if he got any bigger he might split you in two.

I = Intimacy (How are they during the moment, romantic aspect)

Doesn’t matter if you’re making love, or fucking hard it will always be intimate and loving with Chris in one way or another.

If you feel needy, and like you want him to show you how much he loves you, you just have to sit on his lap, bat your lashes at him, show him your puppy eyes, and hump his leg a little. He’d get the sign and take you to bed, slowly dragging his cock in and out of you, drawing it out for the both of you, his fingers laced with yours, pinned above your head. He’d feast on your breasts and nipples the whole time just so you could feel his love and need for days.

If you’re feeling particularly frisky, or in a mood to piss him off just so he could be rough with you without you having to ask, you can just give him attitude or roll your eyes a lot. He’ll spank your ass raw, or edge you for hours, or make you climax till it literally hurts, depends on his mood really, to teach you some manners. But since you like the punishment you never learn.

Even while he’s got you over his knee, you not wearing anything but the diamond necklace he gave you, your cheeks wet from crying for the past fifteen minutes, your ass on fire but you still had to take more from him. He tsked, reprimanding you for ruining his expensive dress pants with your slick, playing with your intimate lips, he’d say while stroking your head, “It’s okay, baby, daddy still loves you. Even when you get on my nerves.”

Even while fucking you like he hated you, he made you felt loved and as if you were the most precious person in the world.

J = Jack Off (Masturbation headcanon)

When you started dating, Chris would often masturbate to the thought of you. But when you started sleeping together he never felt the need to, and you asked him not to do it anymore because you didn’t want him wasting his cummies.

Which might’ve been a huge mistake in hindsight because you revealed a weakness of yours. Now when he REALLY wants to punish you, he’d just tie you up jerk off his cock right before your eyes, “See this, sweetheart? I could be fucking your sweet pussy right now, and making you feel good too, but you had go and be a bad girl.” He’d come all over your face or breasts, and would of course make you come too if he feels you’ve learned your lesson.

K = Kink (One or more of their kinks)

Chris has a huge daddy kink. He doesn’t just like the title, he likes everything that comes along with it.

He likes that he has to take care of you, in and outside if the bedroom, being a daddy is a 24/7 job, he has to be considerate to you and grateful for all the trust and love you give him.

He also really likes pinning you down. Whether it be during play wrestling or during sex, it makes him feel strong, and it drives you crazy, absolutely feral for him.

L=Location (Favorite places to do the do)

Yeah you’ve had your share of sneaking off to do it during events but his favorite place to do it would be in the privacy of his own home, preferably his bed so that your dog won’t walk in on you.

M = Motivation (What turns them on, gets them going)

If you simply say, “Screw me.” That would probably be more than enough to turn him on and fulfil your request.

But what grinds his gears is seeing you in tight clothing, or the kind of clothes that would show off your assets. If you’re a good mom to dodger, if you show an interest in the things he likes or do anything that would make his heart flutter and make him fall more in love with you.

N= NO (Something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)

He would never have proper public sex because that would probably interfere with his public image and work. Other than that he’s pretty open to most things.

He also wouldn’t like to invite anyone else to your bedroom or to share you. It is a nice fantasy for him but way too risky.

O = Oral (Preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)

He likes both giving and receiving equally. He likes having you on your back where he can see your face while he explores your intimate walls with his tongue, but he also likes to have you ride his face. You were apprehensive to at first, but with some convincing you agreed.

Sixtynine is another one of his favorites. He never actually had to ask for it. You were sitting on his face, holding onto his stomach and screaming when you felt your orgasm approaching, he pushed your head just a little, you got the hint, and started working on his cock, which was painfully hard.

P = Pace (Are they fast and rough? Slow and sensual? Etc.)

It would usually depend on what kinda day it is and how you’re both feeling. But most of the time he is usually slow but at the same time rough. Where his thrusts are drawn out but also impactful.

Q= Quickie (Their opinions on quickies rather than proper sex, how often, etc.)

Chris loves quickies. Bending you over the kitchen counter, a quick session in the afternoon on the couch when things got a little too heated while cuddling, in his trailor while he’s on a break, in the shower where he can make you dirty before cleaning you up. You made it.

But he wouldn’t prefer them over proper sex ever. Usually he likes to take his time with you.

R = Risk (Are they game to experiment, do they take risks, etc)

He’s game to experiment to a certain extent. Even if he’s skeptical about something he’d keep an open mind and give it a shot for you.

S= Stamina (How many rounds can they go for, how long do they last)

He’s a fit and motivated man so he can last for a long time and go for many rounds. It’s more likely for you to be tired and tapped out than for him.

If it was a long day on set, and if he’s a little exhausted then he may not be able to go more than once. But will make up for it when he can.

T = Toy (Do they own toys? Do they use them? On a partner or themselves?)

You both own a variety of butt plugs and vibrators, silky ties, blindfolds, handcuffs that Chris likes to use on you. You even bought a ball gag asking him to put it on you, which was the only time you ever used it because Chris liked to hear your voice and for you to call him daddy or say his name. You couldn’t do it with your mouth full.

U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)

Chris teases you a lot, but he would be a MASSIVE tease if he was a little more patient. He knows the effect he has on you. How you can’t take your eyes off him when he wears a t-shirt that’s a bit too tight and shows off his arms, how you can’t help but grab his butt sometimes and feel him up. When you bite your lip or look away when he catches you staring. If you get caught, be prepared because he will only do it more just to egg you on.

His touches a bit too light, he’d bring you to the edge and leave you just there. But fortunately it won’t last long because usually he’s the one who ends up getting riled up.

V = Volume (How loud they are, what sounds they make)

He’s loud alright. And he isn’t ashamed of it. He would never try to hide how good you make him feel, or miss an opportunity to call you a good girl and praise your gorgeous body. There will be lots of grunting and groaning and moaning and you revel in every second of it.

X = X-Ray (Let s see what’s going on in those pants, picture or words)

He’s pretty big. Much bigger than average. He looked pretty average when he wasn’t hard, you let that fool you into thinking you could take him pretty easily, he wasn’t that much bigger than anyone else you’d had sex with right?

Your eyes almost popped out of your head when you saw him hard, his dick hard and thick and a blush pink, two thick running on the sides of it.

He assured you that he would make it fit and that you had nothing to be worried about.

Y = Yearning (How high is their sex drive?)

It’s pretty high. Higher than most people at least. You call him your horndog, but like in a nice way, because he always wants it. Even if you spent an entire night screaming his name and being used and stretched in ways that made your pussy as well as your body sore, he would still ask for more the very next morning. He��d respect you if you say no and back off immediately but he’s up for it whenever you want.

ZZZ (how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)

If he has things on his mind, and if you fall asleep sooner than usual then he’d be up a while. But most of the times he falls asleep quickly after.

Barry NSFW Alphabet

A/n: this was not planned and therefore is not edited

~

A = Aftercare (what they’re like after sex)

Getting you a cool washcloth to wipe you down with, while whispering to you soothingly about how good you were. Small kisses on your forehead and cheek. Just laying there to catch your breath for a while afterward, probably smoking a joint as you do.

B = Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)

Barry’s favorite part about himself is his hands. From his time in the army to working as a mechanic to rolling joints every day his hands have had a lot of practice with skilled, steady movements. If you catch my drift.

His favorite body part on his partner is really anything he can grab onto. Your hips: pulling you in for a hug or squeezing them to get your attention when you’re talking to someone else. Your thighs: pulling you towards him while he sits in his chair so you can stand between his legs, making it all the easier to kiss you. Your ass: cupping it and lifting when you’re kissing just so he can hear that little half-moan he loves so much. Your breasts: massaging them while you leisurely make out on his bed, too high and too hot to move any faster.

C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically)

He loves to come on you, painting your stomach or your thighs. Just seeing it on you gives him this sense of pride and satisfaction. His favorite place to come on you, though, is you face. When you let him it is nearly enough to get him riled again, fiercely pleased that he gets to mark you in such a way.

D = Dirty secret (pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)

Barry has been thinking about fucking you since before you even talked to him for the first time. The first time he saw you he took one look at you and was imagining bending you over the nearest surface and fucking you into oblivion. The talking stages was arguably his best shows of restraint in his entire life, and by the time you guys finally got to the sex stage of your relationship he had enough fantasies he wanted to act out to fill an entire notebook.

E = Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?)

Barry is fairly experienced in the sex part of your relationship, having multiple casual partners in the past, but when it comes to the romantic part of your relationship he has no idea what he’s doing.

F = Favorite position (this goes without saying)

He knows it’s very vanilla of him but he thinks missionary is the best. Best access to everything he wants, your breasts, your clit, your lips, and he gets to see your face. Besides, there are so many different positions just within missionary that you guys can do to keep things interesting. His second favorite position would have to be when you ride him, specifically when he gets to sit up when you ride him Once again because he gets access to everything and it’s so much easier to see your face.

G = Goofy (are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.)

Barry is serious at the moment but only to keep the moment intimate. He can have a good laugh about things and will sometimes chuckle to himself when you do something cute or say something naive.

H = Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)

He doesn’t shave but he keeps it short. And the carpet definitely matches the drapes, dark with a little bit of a curl.

I = Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect)

He can be very intimate, slow and sweet and romantic, but it depends heavily on his mood. If he hasn’t seen you in forever and he missed you more than he was horny he would definitely be very romantic about it.

J = Jack off (masturbation headcanon)

When he was a single bachelor living alone he would probably jerk off once or twice a week, but otherwise he would get a girl for that. And on the days he knows he won’t be seeing you for a while he will definitely do it just so he can send teasing pics for phone sex.

K = Kink (one or more of their kinks)

Begging: Barry loves to get you to the point that you’re begging for him to finally fuck you or finally let you cum, just knowing you need him that bad is better than any high he could get from drugs. And it’s just so pretty when you get so desperate that one tear rolls down your face.

Choking: No matter the sex position, chances are Barry has his hand on your throat, just tight enough for you to feel it.

Bondage: Handcuffs, a tie, a piece of loose fabric, your own panties, even his own hands, he loves having that much control over you. Able to do anything to you, and you can’t even resist. Plus, he loves the sight of you pulling at your restraints with the need to touch him as he brushes his fingers along your chest and abdomen to make you squirm.

Knife & gun kink: though Barry would never hurt you just knowing he has the power too, and that you trust him not to, arouses him to no end.

Exhibitionism: this is very loose because while Barry does not want to let other people see the two of you having sex, having sex in public places (on the side of a back road with you bent over his motorcycle) or with people in the next room (asking you to help him with something in his room and then having a quickie while his customers wait in the living room because he just couldn't wait anymore)

Marking: Barry loves seeing his mark on you, hickies across your neck and chest, bruises in the shapes of his fingertips on your hips and thighs, and wearing his clothing out in public or around the house.

L = Location (favorite places to do the do)

You guys have fucked on every surface in his house and yours, on probably every back road, on his bike, on the beach, everywhere you can think of you and Barry have most definitely fucked there. But his favorite is probably the bed because then you guys can relax without worrying about getting caught afterward.

M = Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going)

He loves to feel you run your fingers through his hair in any situation: while he rests his head in your lap, while you kiss him, while you sit in his lap. It’s relaxing and he catches himself letting his eyes slide shut and his head lull back but when you add just a little tug it immediately gets his engine revving.

He loves seeing you in his clothes, when you walk around in just his shirt or his sweatpants, or leaving the house before he wakes up and returning home and he sees you wearing clothes that are obviously his and he knows you went out and other people saw you in his clothes.

N = No (something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)

Blood play or cuckolding. Barry doesn't want to share you (except with maybe one stuck-up kook who shall not be named) and he also doesn't want to hurt you.

O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)

Barry loves receiving, loving the sight of you on your knees in front of him, but he also loves giving. His partner's pleasure is just as important to him as his own and he loves showing off his skills (how quickly he can make you come with just his tongue)

P = Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.)

Barry is usually fast and rough. This boy has lots of pent-up anger, on top of never being able to get enough of you. But sometimes he gets into these romantic moods (that you're forbidden to tell anyone about) where he just wants to take his time pleasuring you, drawing it out as long as he can.

Q = Quickie (their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)

He loves quickies. He prefers normal sex but he'll take a quickie if that's all he can get.

R = Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.)

He's down to experiment with almost anything. He has a lot of experience and knows what he's doing so I doubt you'll be introducing anything he hasn't heard of but he'll still love to try it out with you.

S = Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?)

He can go for one or two rounds and then he needs to give his dick some time to recuperate. But that doesn't mean his mouth and hands are out of business.

T = Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?)

He doesn't really mind toys one way or another. He's not so insecure that he refuses to have them but he also knows that he doesn't need them to get you off so having toys is totally up to you and what you want to try.

U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)

He loves to tease but he cannot take it when you tease him back. He'll tease you all day, whispering dirty words in your ear, telling you what he wants to do with you, slapping your ass as he walks by or secretly groping you while you kiss or hug. But the second you start teasing him he's on the edge of his seat.

V = Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)

He's not particularly loud, with groaning and grunting and lots of swearing. He actually goes quiet when he cuts, tensing up and squeezing his eyes shut and then afterward he swears and rolls over to lay next to you on the bed.

W = Wild card (a random headcanon for the character)

To elaborate on 'T' he cannot take teasing at all. If you try to tease him he'll catch your wrist and give you a warning look. The more you try the more aggravated he'll get till he pulls you away from whatever you're doing/whoever you're talking to so he can fuck you in the nearest empty room.

X = X-ray (let’s see what’s going on under those clothes)

A little above average length, about 6 ½ inches, and moderately thick.

Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?)

His sex drive is pretty average. It gets higher when he doesn't see you in a while or if you're being particularly bratty but otherwise it's average.

Z = Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterward)

He waits until you've fallen asleep, making sure you're cuddled up to his chest, then he allows himself to fall asleep as well.

A-Z FLUFF ALPHABET (j.kirstein)

A CTIVITIES - What do they like to do with their s/o? How do they spend their free time with them?

Jean loves spending time with you, no matter what you two happen to be doing. Though his favourite thing to do with you is just watch a movie and relax, especially because he loves resting his head in your lap while you run your fingers through his hair.

B EAUTY - What do they admire about their s/o? What do they think is beautiful about them?

Jean, being the person he is, would say everything.

He loves your laugh, your smile, the way you look at him when he says a stupid joke that no one else enjoyed.

C OMFORT - How would they help their s/o when they feel down/have a panic attack etc.?

If you’re feeling down, he’ll buy/cook your favourite food and just stay by your side till your ready to talk. And if you just want time alone, he’ll give that to you but will always make sure you know he’s there when you’re ready.

D REAMS - How do they picture their future with their s/o?

He’s been dreaming about a future with you from really early on. Similar to the dream he has in canon, he sees you both moving in together one day and maybe starting a family together.

He wants kids, but it wouldn’t be a deal breaker honestly. He loves you so much, and if you don’t want kids, he’s fine with settling for a dog or cat.

E QUAL - Are they the dominant one in the relationship, or rather passive?

Things would be super equal for the two of you. If there’s something concerning the both of you, he would never make a decision without trying to get your opinion on it first.

He values communication in the relationship, so you both come to decisions together unless it’s an on the spot thing.

F IGHT - Would they be easy to forgive their s/o? How are they fighting?

While Jean hates fighting with you, he’s also pretty stubborn, and it makes the fight worse than how it originally started out.

Due to how much he hates fighting with you, Jean separates himself from the argument, either going to a different room or leaving the apartment altogether to give you both the time to cool down.

G RATITUDE - How grateful are they in general? Are they aware of what their s/o is doing for them?

He’s very grateful! He loves doing things for you, but when you do things for him? He’ll hug you and tell you how much he loves you, even if the thing you did was something super small.

H ONESTY - Do they have secrets they hide from their s/o? Or do they share everything?

Jean tends to share everything with you. In general, he’s just a very honest person.

I NSPIRATION - Did their s/o change them somehow, or the other way around? Like trying out new things or helped them overcome personal problems?

Before meeting you, Jean was constantly in a crappy mood, usually taking it on Eren more than anybody. He was also quite a flirt, not a serious player but like annoyingly flirty.

After meeting you, he calmed down a little. He swears it wasn’t because of you or anything, but his friends say otherwise.

J EALOUSY - Do they get jealous easily? How do they deal with it?

I wouldn’t say it’s often, but when people neither of you know start getting a little too close, he does get jealous.

He’d probably try keeping it to himself, but communication is a big thing in your relationship so he does let you know. At least after he intimidates the person by wrapping his arms around you and kissing you in front of them.

K ISS - Are they a good kisser? What was the first kiss like?

Jean is a great kisser, at least he is when you both get past the shyness and awkwardness of the first stage in the relationship.

Despite how much of a flirt he was before meeting you, you were probably his first kiss. So you can guarantee he was a stuttering, blushing mess when you pulled away after the first kiss.

L OVE CONFESSION - How would they confess to their s/o?

I talked about this in another post!!

M ARRIAGE - Do they want to get married? How do they propose? What would the marriage be like?

Jean definitely wants to marry you, and he would know that from pretty early on in the relationship. Waking up by your side after you stay the night just isn’t the same, he wants to wake up and call you his wife/husband/partner.

He would want to plan the most cliche date, a fancy dinner, maybe a movie, before going someplace important to the both of you where he would pop the question. However, he just can’t wait. He’ll probably wake up beside you on one of those mornings, and just ask you out of nowhere.

N ICKNAMES - What do they call their s/o?

Of course he calls you the common ones like babe/baby, mostly in a joking manner. When he’s seriously being all lovey-dovey, it’s nicknames like sweetheart, princess/prince, angel.

O N CLOUD NINE - What are they like when they are in love? Is it obvious for others? How do they express their feelings?

Jean, when in love, is so obvious about his feelings. He’s always blushing around you, he has a hard time speaking to you clearly, and he stares at you in such a loving manner.

He expresses his feelings through actions, as he’s a believer that actions speak louder than words! However, that doesn’t stop him from also reassuring you with words too, as he understands that some people need to actually hear it.

P DA - Are they upfront about their relationship? Do they brag with their s/o in front of others? Or are they rather shy to kiss etc. when others are watching?

At the start he’s fairly shy, not doing much when others are around. But when you two grow comfortable with each other, and he knows whether or not you also enjoy pda, there is no stopping him from straight up kissing you in front of other people.

He’s also the type to always be holding your hand when you’re out and about. He’s such a touchy boyfriend, always wanting to be touching part of you in some way.

Q UIRK - Some random ability they have that's beneficial in a relationship.

This dude can cook. Having spent a lot of time with his mother growing up, he picked up on a few things from her.

A lot of your dates are just staying home, enjoying meals that Jean makes for the two of you.

R OMANCE - How romantic are they? What would they do to make their s/o happy? Cliché or rather creative?

Jean is a huge romantic. But he’s constantly torn between cliche dates and creative ones. You go from dates where you draw each other at the park, to fancy dinner dates and a movie.

S UPPORT - Are they helping their s/o achieve their goals? Do they believe in them?

Jean calls himself your no.1 supporter for a reason! Whether it’s staying up till 2am to help you study, or running errands for you in his free time so you don’t have to worry about anything other than your goal. He’s there for you every step of the way!

T HRILL - Do they need to try out new things to spice out your relationship? Or do they prefer a certain routine?

I personally feel like when you fall into comfortable routine, Jean loves it the most. But if you want to spice things up, it’s not like he’ll stop you.

U NDERSTANDING - How good do they know their partner? Are they empathetic?

Jean knows you pretty well, he’s good at reading people. When you’re getting to know each other, he takes notes in his head about things you like and dislike, and probably never forgot them.

If you’re in a bad mood, he can tell just from a simple text, and you can bet he’s already on his way to pick up your favourite sweet food.

V ALUE - How important is the relationship to them? What is it’s worth in comparison to other things in their life?

Like I said earlier, Jean is absolutely in love with you. So the relationship means a lot to him, especially since you both were friends before anything began to take a romantic turn.

If Jean listed the people in his life, it would be his family at the very top of the list, followed by his friends: lucky for you, he counts you as his family.

W ILD CARD - A random fluff headcanon.

Jean rides a motorcycle. He has a car too, sure, but whenever he picks you up he takes the motorcycle. He knows it’s dangerous in comparison to a car, but he likes the security that comes with having your arms around him when riding.

X OXO - Are they very affectionate? Do they love to kiss and cuddle?

Jean is very very affectionate. If you’re together at either of your apartments, there’s no way you’re not cuddling. He’ll be complaining about having to let you go even if you only need him to so you can go to the bathroom.

Y EARNING - How will they cope when they’re missing their partner?

Jean hates it when you’re not around, whether you’re super busy or you’ve just gone away for a little, he hates it.

He likes being around you even if it’s in utter silence, so you two often FaceTime while just going about your daily night time routines. He probably watches you for a minute or two if you fall asleep on call, and he doesn’t hang up until the next morning.

Z EAL - Are they willing to go to great lengths for the relationship? If so, what kind of?

I think Jean would go to great lengths for the relationship in terms that he would branch out of his comfort zone just to understand you a little better.

If a bad fight broke out between the two of you, and he realises that he’s being just a little too stubborn, he would let go his pride and be the first to apologise in fear of losing you. It says a lot, because he’s not usually like that. Typically he lets things cool down a little before trying to apologise.

[ahalal-uralma]

23, 26, 32, 35.

23: How do you vent your anger?

It depends on who or what is making me angry and how much they are managing to anger me.

I am a very difficult person in reality to anger or keep angry. I am not quick to anger unless I am witness to something very abusive or criminal. Grudges are a waste of energy. As long as what someone is doing isn’t severe, I will likely build myself a bridge and get over it in time.

How I usually vent my anger if it happens is one of three ways: a) I avoid the problem and I will go about other tasks that do not upset me b) I talk the problem out with the person if there is a person involved—how this resolves depends on the individual and their intentions or c) A rare scenario, but I will fight someone or call up the authorities if a situation escalates that warrants defense or protection and can not resolve with productive communication or avoidance.

If a situation is making me feel stressed out I will close myself up and stay locked up in my inner-realm till I can calm myself and come up with a solution to a problem.

In some cases, I can reach out to a close friend or family member and have them console me. Otherwise, I will draw, listen to music and go for walks in nature till I feel better.

26: Are you happy with the person you’ve become?

I’ve answered this one already.

32: What’s the worst place you have ever been to?

Speaking of things that make me mad, and in this case extremely so, because I just can not fathom how anyone could live this way, existing at the expense of human beings and animals welfare—but, it was someone else’s home.

I am just glad the law intervened and their pets were rescued. You may be thinking “it’s their home and they can do as they wish,” but, you would be horrified to know of the things people are willing to abuse privacy for. Just because it happened in their home doesn’t make it more ethical or less illegal. Lines were crossed.

35: To you, what is the meaning of life?

I am going to be a sentimental nerd, but I really echo this philosophy from Douglas Adam’s The Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy….

42. ♥️

[asteriismos]

nsfw alphabet - jacob thrombey

A = Aftercare (what they’re like after sex)

it takes a long time before jacob actually knows what the fuck aftercare is. at first he just tells the housekeeper to bring some food around or clean the sheets up lol. after a particularly rough night though you’re having trouble walking and he turns into such like a soft caregiver for some random reason. he draws you a bath and uses all these different oils and stuff because i know he uses them to smell good.

B = Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)

your thighs. he grips them constantly in and out of the bedroom. it’s usually what he does to edge you on whenever you guys are in public. he’ll put his hands and rub them up and down your thighs. in the bedroom he’ll grip them and kiss them, creating so many hickies you’ll hit him on the back of the head afterwards for making so many. he purposely puts them down low enough so they show from under your skirt for school.

C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically)

he loves to cum inside you. it’s less messy so he doesn’t have to take the time to call the housekeeper to change the sheets and because the intimacy of it is great. he does use condoms most of the time because it’s definitely safer, but you’re on birth control so there’s times where he definitely prefers cumming inside you. jacob marvels in the way that it spills outside of you.

D = Dirty secret (pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)

he worships your body. jacob outside of the bedroom seems like he’s all for himself, but he’s really not. he takes the time to kiss every single part of you and run his hands up and down your arms and legs and curves. jacob is also the type of person to buy you lingerie sets that he believes you’ll look good in and you put on a show for him, he loves it.

E = Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?)

he’s had a few other girlfriends. and he’s also had some relationships strictly for sex because he can piss off his family that way. he’s experienced, but since he’s only with you now he’s super into doing things that you like. he knows what he’s doing.

F = Favorite position (this goes without saying)

jacob likes to take you from behind purely to pull on your hair. he can appreciate your curves and kiss up and down your spine. on rare occasions he’ll push you against the wall so your chest is pressed against the wall and he takes you from behind that way. that way he’s standing above you and kissing your neck. it’s so hot.

G = Goofy (are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.)

jacob isn’t the type to be goofy during sex. he’s serious, but not in a dehumanizing type of way. jacob is all about you and him, finding out what makes you guys have the best time. he likes sex a lot and it’s easy to see it.

H = Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)

in the ways that he’s prim and proper on the outside with his wardrobe and hair on his head, he’s the same with his hair down there. i feel like he’s a little ocd about the way he looks, he’s a total perfectionist, so he trims really nicely. he doesn’t have a preference for your hair, though because of the rich lavish lifestyle you usually shave because it looks really nice with the lingerie sets.

I = Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect)

he can be romantic. most of the time you guys are fucking rough and hard trying to get all of each other, but there are times ( like for anniversaries or romantic dates ) where he’ll go all out. he has specific sheets for this that are a deep maroon red and fills the entire room with roses or other flowers of your choosing.

J = Jack off (masturbation headcanon)

he does a lot. you two have made pictures and videos together that he keeps on his phone that he looks at while he does. jacob also really likes phone sex or sexting back and forth, so most of the time when he jacks off when you two are doing that.

K = Kink (one or more of their kinks)

jacob loves choking. he has a lot of kinks but that’s his go-to kink. the feeling of your throat when you moan while his hand is wrapped around it is so hot to him he could cum right then and there. he has really nice hands, which you believe are some of his best features.

L = Location (favorite places to do the do)

in his bed preferably. he has a big ass room so of course his bed is huge and there’s a lot of room. it’s just easier and way more comfortable. there have been a few times where you guys have shower sex if the maid is cleaning up his room, which is always really hot, but the bed is just way better in his opinion.

M = Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going)

he really likes lingerie. jacob is totally the type of person to buy you lingerie sets and ask you to wear them ( which you do because you always look super hot in them ) and he loves it. they’re always really intricate and lacey and it looks amazing and super sexy. he also loves when you wear those black stockings under your skirt.

N = No (something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)

anything that would get you caught. sure, he’s been a little risqué here and there with like closets in school and in the limo but he would never willingly get caught. then he has to live with his parents yelling at him and he didn’t get to spend all the time he wants with you.

O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)

he likes giving. jacob has this thing where he’ll eat you out for hours until you’re literally broken and all you can do is say his name. he’ll eat you out till you’re crying and begging. there are some times where he’ll receive just to use his hands to bob your head up and down on his cock but he likes giving more.

P = Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.)

jacob loves going fast and rough, he definitely manhandles you and has his way with you. if he’s really in the teasing mood, he’ll go slow and sensual and make you beg for it. jacob loves hearing you beg for him to go faster or harder.

Q = Quickie (their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)

preferably, jacob doesn’t like quickies because he doesn’t have enough time to tease you and have his way with you. he likes you begging. but if there really isn’t enough time then he’ll settle for a quickie either on some surface in his house or in the shower if each of you need to take one before school.

R = Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.)

jacob is so into experimenting. he doesn’t take it too far though, since he’s not really into the whole cutter porn thing or blood because it’s messy and he wouldn’t want to cut your soft skin that he loves and worships so much. he does like to tie you up in his own little bdsm way, he definitely chokes you, and he 100% has a daddy kink that started off as a joke but now is a real thing.

S = Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?)

he can go for a long time, he has high stamina that can tire you out really quickly. jacob does know that you have limitations though and respects that. one time you guys tried to see how long you could go for and you lasted around 5 rounds or so in one go, he claims that he could’ve lasted till 8 but you doubted it because he fell asleep the second his head hit the pillow.

T = Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?)

maybe a vibrator for you. he doesn’t really use them for himself, but mostly to edge and tease you. jacob will tie you up and use the vibrator on you until you’re screaming, only on rare occasions though. he much rather likes just seeing what his own body can do to get you off.

U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)

jacob is the worst when it comes to teasing. he’ll do it for hours, days, and weeks if that’s what he feels like. each of you will edge each other on, then jacob pulls away and leaves you high and dry. it’s frustrating but incredibly hot when each of you do give into the desire. jacob teases you by kissing your neck, pushing his hands either up your blouse to pinch your nipples or he’ll run his hands up and down your thighs, strictly avoiding where you need him most.

V = Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)

jacob is loud but not in the moaning groaning way. he likes to dirty talk. he praises you, calling you his ‘good girl’ or praises like ‘you’re so wet for me’ or ‘you take my cock so well’ stuff.

W = Wild card (a random headcanon for the character)

he took you to a thrombey party once and fingered you under the table. you were teasing him with wearing the shortest skirt in your closet and those stockings he loved with no panties, so you were hoping he would do something. but when you felt his fingers go in between your folds at the dinner table you wanted to kill him, but it felt so good.

X = X-ray (let’s see what’s going on under those clothes)

jacob is averaged sized but he knows how to use it pretty well.

Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?)

jacob’s libido is so strong. sex is a thing that he loves, not only for himself but for his partner too.

Z = Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)

jacob loves being the big spoon after sex, cuddling with you till you guys fall asleep. his bed is really comfy, so each of you are asleep pretty quickly.

Lovely tag : whitey winn

A - Affection [How affectionate are they with you?]

Whitey Winn is rather affection but at specific times, in the office he'll barely give you anything but in bed he'll wrap you up in his arms and never let you go giving you a million kisses a minute. Even if he does like holding your hand and waist most of the time and whispering in your ear how much he loves you.

B - Butter [How much do they coddle you, and how?]

Ohhh you where coddled worse then ever! Your father had always been protective of course as your his own little girl and his only child before your mother died so being protected was just something you where used to. However when you and whitey got together you assumed it would stop that he'd let you be more independent but ohh no you where mistaken Whitey's worse then your father ever was, he was extremely protective of you holding you on his arm, sitting behind you on your horse, barely letting you out after dark unless he was with you.

And it somehow got even worse when you got married, and even more so once you got pregnant. At that point he would even let you pick up spoons for yourself.

C - Confide [How easily do they confide to you?]

He's pretty open as far as confiding goes he was very happy to tell you things as soon as you two started courting he liked telling you things and he loves listening to you tell him to.

D - Defensive [How protective are they over you?]

Super protective! Another man looks at you Whitey's growling like a wild dog pushing you behind him or into his side. One of the mine security men tried to hit on you one evening and honestly your surprised whitey didn't kill him but it was a close call if maggie hadn't have stopped the fight you think that boy would have been dead. Not to mention the time one visiting boy pinched your bottom thought your dress and by the time you had squealed and turned around the boy was knocked out in the dust and you where tight to Whitey's chest. But you know it's just what he's like and that he's just trying to help so you'll give him a little reward later after dark.

E - Exhausted [How do they take care of you when you're tired or feeling low?]

He'll spot your tried or upset from a mile away he'll find someplace cosy and sit you across his lap, and make you tell him all about it he'll play with your hair and stroke your skin while you explain nodding and agreeing at moments he needs too and once it's all explained he'll pulling you to rest your head on his shoulder and chest and let you rest till your better.

F - Fluffy [How sappily sweet can they get?]

He can be a very sappy boy, giving you flowers, giving you cuddles telling you he loves you a hundred times a day

G - Game [How much do they play around, and are they a tease?]

He's not much for teasing or playing around he'd rather just be sweet to you.

H - Happy [What's their favourite thing to do with you, that makes them happy?]

Cuddle! Or go out riding he loves sitting behind you his arms around you to hold the rains of the horse as you go off on little adventures together.

I - Initiate [Do they make the first move?]

Depends, if it's a cuddle then one hundred percent whitey is asking and moving first, but other stuff like kissing and so on its almost always you. Even after your married with children you still have to make a first move to give him a kiss or hold his hand and each normally make him go bright red

J - Jealousy [How jealous can they get and how do they show it?]

He gets super jealous. Luckily labelle doesn't have alot of men and the ones who are in labelle are mostly older men who barely do much of anything so he didn't need to worry much about you, but when those young dirty mining security men came whitey was not happy as at times it seemed almost like the intentional picked on you to wind whitey up and make him do something so they could lock him in the cells. He gets defensive, violent, he'll do anything do defend you even if it means he gets in trouble for doing it because your his girl and knowone is going to hurt you or take you away from him not while he breaths.

L - Love [How do they react to you giving them affection?]

Blush!! He blushed when you kiss him, when you hold his hand he just always has blush in those dirty cheeks. But he loves when you give him affection he just wishes it wasn't so obvious how much he liked it.

M - Married [What's it like to be married to them?]

Amazing, he always cuddles and kisses you once he's home from work, compliments atleast three times a day, and cuddles and sleeps beside you every single night he's not at work.

N - Newborn [How are they with having kids, and how would they be as a parent?]

He got so excited when you told him you where pregnant, but he wouldn't let you do anything for yourself he was going to care for your every single need until baby came. And as soon as it did you saw him smile wider then you had ever seen before he was so happy to be a daddy and he was an amazing one. He loves all your children so very much and takes such good care of them even if he does spoil them a little bit mostly because your first child was a boy and whitey was ecstatic! Having little whitey jr so he kinda spoilt him rotten. But then soon enough when little addison came he had to spoil her too so it was fair. And then elijha came so he had to spoil the boys as much as the girls and so on and so on spoiling all your children rather alot. Even if you keep saying when you have a baby in the house that you won't have anymore children after this and yet it keeps on happening. Even if you think whitey secretly really wants more children, you have said you draw the line at five but with your current tummy thats already out the window.

O - Outdoors [How are they with you in public?]

Defense and sweet, he likes holding onto you but other then that he's okay he doesn't much like kissing you or anything outside because that's privet stuff even if... Maybe the office is privet enough for a snuggle or two.

P - Propose [How would they propose, and when would that be?]

It was nervous. He barely got thought it without stuttering. Almost all of labelle came out to watch which probably didn't help as whitey let it slip to bill in the office that he was going to do it so bill told maggie and of course within an hour the whole dam down new except you. He of course had asked your father's permission first and once he had that he got you as many flowers as he could and asked you in the middle of town in front of everyone.

Q - Quarrel [How are they after a fight, and will they try to make amends right after?]

You've never been in a fight with whitey, he's too sweet, the moment your upset about something he cuddles you holds you hands and let's you explain all about it and how he can make it all better. I don't think it's actually possible to get into a fight with him over anything you can try and tell at him and he'll just stand there politely and nod agreeing with you and discusses ways he can improve and how he can help. "Of course, your right darlin' I'm sorry. I'll remember next time"

R - Romantic [How much of a hopeless romantic are they, and how do they show it?]

He is rather a hopeless romantic, he always brings you flowers after a long day of work and tells you he loves you almost constantly.

S - Snuggles [Do they like to cuddle, and how do they do it?]

Whitey loves to cuddle he almost always starts a cuddle or asks for a cuddle he adores cuddling with you, he moves just wrapping his arms around you having you engulfed in him, usually both arms around you, Maybe a leg around you too with your head nuzzled into him so you have no escape from his love.

T - Touchy [How touch starved are they, and would they show it?]

He was so touch straved when you where first together you could poke him and he'd have a heart attack, but even when he's been in the office a few nights or just hasn't seen you all that much he gets a little desperate for kisses for touching for anything you'll give him. You can tell he's getting touch starved because he'll bite on his mouth alot more and you can see it in how his eyes lingure and move much slower.

U - Urchin [What's one negative trait about them that hurts you?]

That he can be a little too accommodating t the ladies in town, you understand that Whitey Winn is the deputy of La Belle a town almost all of the women have lost their husbands but you get rather jealous when you see the women going to the office to try and bring him things in the office, he never flirts or anything you just get a little worried sometimes

V - Vibe [What energy do they give off when you're with them?]

he gives off the energy of being very cocky and strong but also very sweet like sugar, he is so blushy with you its a rarity he gets though a sentence with you before he's blushing and stuttering 

W- Wedding [What are they like at their wedding?]

a mess, He cried so much when you got married, he was so happy, so excited and so thrilled your father finally allowed you two to get married, you met him in the half-finished church and half of Labelle showed up mostly all the women to see you and whitey get married and they spoilt you with presents of baked goods and wine for you, and bill spoilt you giving whitey a week off for you two's honeymoon

X - Xtreme [What lengths would they go to for you?]

He's do anything for you, anything you asked just to see you smile, back before your father found out about whitey courting you he used to ride out to the river with you just for dates even if it took about half an hour to get from his house to your spot, but he still did it every day after work. 

Y - Yogurt [What's their ideal place for a date?]

A little ride out to the river, sitting down by the edge with maybe a little picnic of maybe some beer and pie, maybe a little cuddle if it gets too cold out as the sky gets dark and you can sit and stargaze together maybe He'll wrap his jacket around your shoulder if you get too cold and maybe if he's lucky he might get a kiss at your door when he walks you back to your door Before your curfew of course so he doesn't get yelled at by your father.

Z - Zipper [What clothes do they like seeing you in?]

he loves seeing you in your underdress when you don't bother to really get dressed he thinks you look sweetest that way.

Start of Term Banquet

Chapter IX

The day when school was to open its gates for the students has come, and with it came a strange uneasy feeling, which made you doubt whether you should ever sign up for this.

Wrapped in a blanket, you shielded yourself from the sunlight, which started seeping through a narrow slit between fringed heavy curtains, wishing you could stay in bed till next week – or better till next year – and skip this whole procedure of meeting children and – what seemed even more frightening – running your first class. You grabbed a pillow and pulled it over your face, letting out a loud groan of displeasure. A moment later the pillow landed back on a mattress with a hard flop and rolled across the bed, in your opinion – prohibitively wide for one person. After a split second of balancing on its edge, it fell on the floor. You didn’t care. Staring at the ceiling, you regretted staying at Snape’s for too long last night, but once this thought crossed your mind, your lips stretched in a contented smile. No, this was definitely not something you should ever regret.

One of your feet touched the rug, and soon the other one joined it, when you finally found strength to sit upright. Getting out of bed has never been an easy task for you, especially on days like this. The only thing that made you up was a chance to meet your fellow Professor, who could probably give you a piece of advice on how to survive your first day of teaching. You didn’t feel like acting all thorny and standoffish around him; you already trusted him enough to share some of your insecurities. It just happens sometimes: you meet a person, and on a level deeper than human perception allows, you somehow realize you fit together, even though you might know not much about each other or even nothing at all.

“He’s certainly not there,” you told yourself, turning the handle on the staff room door, but still hoping he was. The more space of the room the opening door revealed, the less of a hope there left within your heart, which was replaced with bitter disappointment, once you stepped inside and didn’t find him. Regrettably, there was a short stature of Professor Flitwick instead. Not that you didn’t like him – otherwise, he managed to combine intelligence with sense of humor in such a pleasingly ingenious and simple manner, you couldn’t resist his captivating charm – but at the moment you just didn’t feel enthusiastic about any abstract conversation.

“A little nervous, ain’t you?” he smiled from above the armrest of a couch.

“I am…” taken aback, you admitted hesitantly. “How did you…?”

“I always feel nervous on the first day of the term, even after all these years,” he replied in a squeaky voice.

Later you thought it was even good you met no other than this tiny man. He definitely was a better person to discuss the issue which bothered the both of you, him – clearly – to a much lesser extent. He persuaded you that there was nothing to worry about and, considering indifference the worst of vices, expressed his approval of taking things close to one’s heart.

As much as Professor Flitwick helped you overcome excitement, there still remained something that gave you no peace. It was getting dark; the students were about to arrive. Busy with start of term banquet preparations, seemingly each of your colleagues scurried through the castle making sure everything was ready; even school ghosts gathered in the Entrance Hall to greet newcomers, but Snape never showed up. Neither actually did Dumbledore, yet his absence didn’t upset you in a slightest. Hoping to chase annoying thought away, you roamed the Great Hall, admiring the view of the floating candles under the ceiling enchanted to look like the sky above. 

“Enjoying yourself?” a voice you had no trouble recognizing asked from behind your back.

“Just loitering around,” you turned to face the man wearing his regular black suit and impassive expression. No matter how hard you tried not to smile, the corners of your lips raised up slightly, and so – unable to resist – did his.

“Take your place, the students are already here.”

“Are they?” This news surprised you, since nothing betrayed someone’s presence.

“Come on,” Professor Snape hurried you, heading for the High Table. “You don’t want the crowd to trample you down,” his hand leisurely reached for your waist and froze mere inches to the small of your back, never venturing to come in contact with your body.

As the last word was spoken, children broke through huge oak doors floating the Hall and filling the air with cheerful buzz of excited voices. Amazed, you watched their chaotic maneuvers between benches in attempt to get a better place at the table, realizing how close you were to being engulfed in this swirling mass.

“I swear, Professor, if you appeared a minute later…”

“Save your gratitude for occasion more suitable in the circumstances,” he interrupted you in his typical monotonous manner, scanning the crowd with the look of anthracite eyes, which now seemed even darker than usual.

Attention switched from the man’s face, you noticed your other colleagues joining in. Headmaster was smiling broader than ever. Professor Quirrell caught his foot on the ends of his robe and almost ran into Professor Hooch, who was forced to grab him – overbearing enough – to jolt him back to balance. Aurora Sinistra, Astronomy Professor you got along quite well, happened to find her place on the other side of the table, so you had no choice but to stay where you stood, moreover, you had no reason for complaining – the company this evening prepared for you was more than acceptable.

“I can’t spot Professor McGonagall,” you whispered, leaning closer to Snape’s ear, as if it was a confidential matter.

“Of course, you can’t, because she’s not here,” was his plain answer.

Before you could open your mouth to ask for more details, the oak doors swung open again, and a line of paired up first-years entered the Hall, escorted by the one you were just talking about. Professor McGonagall led them up the teacher’s table, where the Sorting Hat was already awaiting to put children in their Houses.

“L-look at t-that young m-man in round g-glasses,” Quirinus perked up. “This is Harry P-P-Potter! I m-met him in the L-leaky C-C-Cauldron on the 31st of July! H-he was…”

“What were you doing in the Leaky Cauldron, Quirrell? You said you had some business in the Ministry,” Snape cut him short, focused on identifying the legend among other children. It wasn’t hard – he was the only one wearing round glasses. This very moment, rubbing his forehead, the boy looked in your direction. He seemed lost and confused, just like his peers waiting for their turn to be sorted.

“I d-did,” he confirmed, “it was earlier t-that d-day.”

“Don’t mind a glass of sherry before meeting authorities? You never stop surprising me,” Snape snapped disapprovingly.

“N-no, I just…”

“Harry Potter!” McGonagall called the boy’s name, and all the people – students and teachers – stared at him in at once settled silence. While the Hat took its time to decide in which House Harry belonged, Quirinus stuttered something under his breath, probably, trying to find an excuse, but no one was interested.

“Shut up, Quirrell!” you heard Snape’s annoyed hissing, and he stopped half-word, his face – paler than before – contrasting with purple of his huge turban.

“Not Slytherin, eh?” asked the Sorting Hat from the boy’s head, which almost disappeared in its shabby depth, and the man beside you grunted contemptuously, drawing your attention. But once Harry Potter was announced to be a Gryffindor, unimpressed, he pursed his lips, while the rest loudly cheered the little wizard, who walked toward his table looking like fainting from excitement.

“Wanted to have him in Slytherin?” you teased your gloomy colleague.

“Why would I even care?” Professor’s face twisted in disgust, and you giggled.

“So, you said, 31st of July. Wasn’t it that very day when Gringotts break-in took place?” you addressed Quirrell, when the last student was sorted and the feast began.

Snape, who was sitting between the two of you, frowned. “Indeed,” he confirmed.

“Did you see something strange?” your bent over the table trying to get a better view of the man’s face from behind tall black figure.

“S-strange?” he muttered, avoiding your curious glance. “I d-don’t think s-s-so. It was j-just as us-sual.”

“Just – as – usual,” Snape recited thoughtfully. “And how often do you drop in there, Quirrell… to judge about commonness of that place?”

“W-well I’ve b-been there a c-couple of t-times when I needed to f-find another b-book for my w-w-werewolves’ r-research and…”

“I thought you were studying vampires?” Snape clarified in a bored tone.

“I always t-try to l-learn something n-new, to k-keep abreast, you know…” Quirrell returned to his meal.

“So you must’ve heard they procreated a new dragon as a result of crossbreeding!” you exclaimed delightedly.

Snape’s brow arched in astonishment, as he slowly turned his head with ‘oh really?’ expression on his face to check if you’ve suddenly gone insane, or he just overheard something. Leaning on the carved backrest of your chair, you gave him a sign not to dispute, so that Quirrell couldn’t see it.

“Romanian Longhorn and Swedish Short-Snout,” curious what you were up to, Snape played along, naming first two species that came to his mind.

“Exactly! They called it Snout-Horn, but still can’t come to an agreement about its belonging to one of the countries. The argument maxed out recently! Taking into account that the dragon hatched in Slovakia, it’s quite a hot topic!”

“N-no m-matter, h-how they c-call it – it’s a b-b-breakthrough anyway!” Quirrell acknowledged, without showing much interest.

“Its horn grew way too long – and therefore too heavy – so the creature barely holds its head,” you continued vigorously. “Can you imagine!”

A master of self-control, Snape couldn’t help letting out a short snort, not believing he participated in this nonsense.

“What for was all that dragon thing?” he asked you after the feast, on the way back to your chambers.

“He never gives comprehensive answers,” you shared your assumption. “Just wanted to find out, whether he’s a fool or just pretends.”

Snape walked silently beside you.

“I got the same apprehension,” he admitted finally.

“You think he knows the one who did it? I mean… Gringotts break-in?”

“Too fast with conclusions, ain’t we?” a ghost of smile crossed the man’s face and vanished as fast as it appeared.

He was pretending too. You knew this question bothered him even more than yourself, but he wasn’t going to discuss it with you. Why? Didn’t he trust you? Did he consider it not your business? You felt hurt. You really cared about the Stone and the safety of the whole school, but no one seemed to appreciate it.

“Perhaps… Good night, Professor,” disappointed, you gave him a harsh nod.

Snape realized he’s just pushed you away – which was the last thing he wanted – but being not ready for such outcome, he couldn’t find words to fix this stupid situation.

“Good night, Professor,” he answered stiffly, surpassing your formality, and headed down the corridor to his private rooms, scolding himself for being too wary; and you remained standing where he left you – upset, frustrated.

Before offence could squeeze your heart and poison your soul with sadness and misery, Snape stopped in his tracks.  

“Don’t let him become aware of your suspicions,” he said quietly, his head just half a turn in your direction.

“Professor?” you called him softly. Desperate notes in your tone prompted him raise his glance on you, and what he saw made him feel relieved at once. You were smiling.

“Rest,” he smiled back. “Your next day’s going to be full of impressions.”

Some thoughts about Bran Stark

Okay, so--not to butt in and trample around, as someone who never read the books and stopped watching the show sometime around season 3--but the thing is, I feel like the ending has finally allowed me to understand exactly what it was that turned me off Game of Thrones, which I never quite did put my finger on till now, and I want to at least write it out once. (Ironically, this has made me like the story better, though not its execution.) To attempt a spoiler-free summary: I’m going to be thinking about the thematic structure of the story and why that should make certain things make sense, and how they came to not make sense anyway.

The thing is, thematically and structurally, Bran ending up king makes absolute and perfect sense. It’s just that they didn’t write the story in line with the structure they were given. The problem with the show is--and always has been--that the writers don’t actually understand what “subverting fantasy tropes” means or could look like, and they don’t care about it in any meaningful way. What they care about is doing big, bloodthirsty, quasi-historical fiction with a lot of nudity. (See: the Civil War show they wanted to do.) And Bran’s whole situation only makes sense (or would have made sense, if executed properly) in the context of high fantasy.

Keeping in mind that complicating high fantasy tropes was an important part of what Martin reportedly set out to do, each of the Stark kids (the story’s backbone) had a clear thematic purpose. Each of them a) was a take on a trope, b) had a clear character trajectory that would allow that take on the trope to be developed while functioning as a working character arc, and c) through that trope-inflected arc, could allow the audience a window into specific part of the society (i.e., they supported the worldbuilding), which in turn allowed the further development of these takes on the tropes by giving them specific, appropriate settings and side characters to bounce off of. This is to say that GRRM did a good job setting himself up to do “trope subversion” in a way that would comment on the things he wanted to comment on, function as part of a larger world and story, and help support a plot that would be in harmony with all of the above. This is one very solid approach to character design. To be clear, despite this paragraph being about characters, I’m talking about themes--it has nothing to do with their personalities or whatever. This is about what ideas come together in the concept of each character and therefore how each character’s story develops the ideas.

A good reason to approach character design in this way is if you have set out to subvert, complicate, comment on, or otherwise mess with genre tropes. To do so, the characters have to themselves be tropes, or at least be designed in close relation to tropes, in order to derange them. So like, just to take the simplest two examples:

Robb: The Prince. Firstborn, shining favorite, destined to inherit. Set up (normally) to avenge his father, restore order to his kingdom, and go home. Bungles it entirely by seeking true love; meanwhile, in the course of his story we learn about the regional politics of the North, the politics of alliances by marriage and kinship, etc. Narratively, his failure allows the entire political and military situation to get infinitely more clusterfucked. All of those pieces fit together well thematically.

What is being subverted here is the prince’s marital destiny. We have loads of fairy and fantasy stories about prince and prince-types for whom pursuing true love just happens to be convenient (they can marry whoever they want), or whose pursuits of love are rescued by fate (his true love turns out to be his promised princess all along! She’s secretly a magical being of some sort, and that trumps betrothal agreements! The one he was originally supposed to marry died or decided to marry someone else! etc). This is totally kosher in traditional high fantasy (or in the folklore that the genre draws on) because it’s an expression of the harmony of the story-world; the characters go through their trials and adventures and end with a resolution in the form of marriage that announces that all is as it should be. What it looks like GRRM set out to do is ask what happens when people still follow those rules and the rules aren’t in harmony with the world they live in.

In particular, the entire thing points square at the fact that princes are political animals. It seems to me that Robb’s story was meant to say, well, actually, sometimes people with power just have to marry people they don’t love as a condition of being powerful (which comes up constantly throughout the whole show). After Ned and Catlyn, basically every “true love” couple is dysfunctional, incestuous (Cersei and Jaime, Daenerys and John), and/or gets narratively stomped on, as far as I’m aware. (Did Sam and Gilly make it? If so, I think that’s allowed because they’re commoners.) Ironically, Ned and Catlyn set Robb up to fuck up by modeling one of these convenient political-and-true-love marriages. He thought he was supposed to be allowed to have it all. He was wrong. The end. Next. But the show seemed to expect me to feel that the outcome was unjust and tragique for Their Love, when all that was unjust and tragique about it was that Robb was idiot enough to bring the consequences of his actions on his entire group of followers. That is the point. That his status has to constrain his behavior, and when it doesn’t it has consequences for others. The status itself is what’s being problematized.

Jon: The Secret Heir. Second-oldest, bastard-born, treated with contempt. In relation to the family, literally a supplementary person. Set up (normally) to be rediscovered as the true heir to the throne and end up as king (moving from the margins to the center; getting the acceptance he couldn’t have as a bastard). The twist is the “true” dynasty he represents is composed of inbred lunatics, and his potential access to the throne goes not only via that bloodline but via repeating their tradition of incest. Dovetailing nicely with that, he was set up from the start as less wanting access to the kinship system than wanting to be free of it, so instead of becoming king by virtue of being a Targaryen, he stops the reinstatement of the Targaryen line altogether. Meanwhile, for most of his story, as a “supplementary person” he gives the audience a view into a lot of corners of Westeros that are concerned with what is excluded from Westeros: the Night’s Watch, the Wildlings, and indeed the White Walkers.

Again, all of that lines up together well. It’s part of the larger derailment of the blood-as-destiny notion of a “true” king, heir, ruling dynasty, etc. (I think the main reason GRRM goes so hard on the incest, not to mention having not one but THREE bastard characters, is in service of this; it also means Jon’s character arc of wanting out of the bloodline system fits into the thematic structure. See? Everything ties together neatly.) But I mean. We all know the character was not executed well.

And so on. I could do the same for Sansa and all the rest of them. (Sansa and Arya are probably the two most successful executions of what their character designs set them up to do; it’s not a coincidence those are the characters whose stories people seem to be happiest with.) But the thing is, a lot of these tropes, while certainly common in high fantasy, are also found in lots of other genres. Chosen Ones and Unexpectedly Eligible Chosen Ones and Princesses and Warrior Maidens (whether in literal forms or not) show up all over the place. The fact that these aren’t strictly fantasy archetypes perhaps means they were less prone to being mishandled. Bran, though. Bran belongs firmly and only in high fantasy. He is, literally, supposed to be a magic priest-king. A take on the Fisher King, even (I’ll explain about that later). And his story was weighted toward the end because of what it seems like Martin was trying to do more broadly, meaning it was much more on the showrunners to do it right.

High fantasy is always trying in some way to engage with ~the numinous~, which is to say the sort of never-explainable mystery and magic of the world. Magic in high fantasy is usually closely tied to deep time, the land, nature, or the metaphysical. Ancient beings, lost secrets, nature spirits, hidden realms, that sort of thing. It’s part of the genre’s inheritance from the mythology and folklore it’s all based on, which had a much more enchanted, vitalist view of the world than we generally do now. (In a way, that’s the purpose for high fantasy’s existence as a modern genre--keeping some access to that.) What Martin set the whole story up to do was question the tropes that often go along with the genre by making the setting one in which almost everybody has forgotten about all the magic and mystical knowledge that is in their history. Westeros is an extreme, historicized take on the Shire, basically. (”English pastoralism you say? I’ll see you and raise you the English Civil War” -- George R.R. Martin, presumably.) They have no notion of what’s really out there and what’s really possible in the world, and have quite comfortably isolated themselves in a situation where they need not remember. As a result, the social institutions that were developed long ago in relation to the ancient magics and knowledges become, instead, just social norms that can be manipulated, distorted, and played out in a much more historical-fiction kind of fashion, which gives Martin lots of room to point out that, say, ironclad patriarchal bloodlines cause problems. (That is, if you take away any magical justification, by virtue of connection to the land or the spirit realm or what have you, for the right to rule, then you stop having to have your One True Kings also be good people. It allows him to pull apart the different pieces of that trope and suggest that their being connected in the first place is questionable. Which it is! He’s right and he should say it!)

But the magic has to come back at some point, or else it’s really not high fantasy. And it seems like what he wanted to do was have all these elements from outside Westeros--the White Walkers, that god whose name I’ve forgotten, and Daenerys with her dragons--converge on it such that the characters would have to go back to their deep history and call those things back up in order to deal with the real world they live in (instead of the wealthy political bubble of all the scheming) and thus get to a point where they could actually change their system for the better. You can think of it as a very elaborate deus ex machina in a way, except the deus ex machina isn’t Daenerys showing up with dragons to fight the White Walkers or Arya having trained (again, outside Westeros, for the record) just the right way for killing the Night King. It’s all of these external forces forcing the characters in Westeros to get their fucking shit together. Otherwise there’s really no resolution to the war, in a high fantasy version of the story. It’s just historical fiction with some weird bells and whistles. Without a need to go back and figure out whatever the First Men were up to, there’s no incentive to go back to the numinous. That he intended for sure that some version of a return of the numinous end up being a big part of the climax is reinforced for me by the fact that the Starks--again, the backbone of the whole story--are set up as being unusually in touch with this mystic/magical heritage (the old gods, the crypt, the godswood) and unusually faithful to the traditional ways. They were introduced that way for a reason.

So where does Bran come in. The thing is that Bran is literally named after the mythic founding king of Westeros, Bran the Builder. The other thing is that both of those Brans are clearly named after Bran the Blessed, a literal mythic god-king from Welsh mythology whose name means crow (but who for various reasons also often gets associated with ravens, which in turn are commonly associated with transcendent knowledge, magic, etc; it’s a long story). So you have a younger member of the story’s key Stark family, already closer to the sources of magic and mystery than most. You name him after the founder of Westeros who lived in a time of magic, traffic with other beings, and great building works and other inherited accomplishments for which the associated knowledge has since been lost, etc. You have him gain mystical abilities to transfer his consciousness to other bodies, or through time (absolutely typical Mystic Powers). You have him even take on a special priestly status passed down from the era of magic by leaving Westeros to hang out with other kinds of magical beings, which means he is now explicitly named both Bran and Raven.

OBVIOUSLY this kid is supposed to be king. He’s going to restore the realm to a situation in which the ruler, the realm, its various life forces and nature spirits, and the metaphysical are all connected to one another and, in a sense, present in the same body (which is the kind of genuine mythological shit high fantasy is always drawing on). But the writers then just sat around and did nothing with him for years on end until whoops hey he’s king now. Of course no one thinks it makes any sense!! It’s fucking malpractice!!!!

If you go to the GOT Wiki and just read Bran’s page, everything makes sense and lines up well in terms of a list of events. (Although it’s really notable how short the entry from s8 is, and how everything it lists is things that happen to Bran, pretty much.) There is a progression that makes sense. But from what I understand--this was certainly the situation when I stopped watching--nothing was ever done to suggest that any of this mattered. The Three-Eyed Raven, the forest spirits, the magics and so on--it was treated at most as a backstory machine. It had no connection to or effect on the rest of the story, so far as I can tell. The fact that none of this played into the battle with the White Walkers at all is flatly insane. The thing I most remember people saying about Bran after that episode wasn’t even “Why didn’t he use X or Y that he learned in the forest?” but “Why was he there?” which just goes to show how completely and utterly bungled this entire piece of the narrative was. Like, if your high fantasy story is making its audience ask “Why would the story put the one character with the greatest knowledge of ancient magics and powers at the scene of a battle against an all-but-forgotten ancient threat,” then I’m sorry, it has gone fully off the rails, and not just in its most recent season. That’s not subversion, it’s just fully dropping the ball.

You know what would make sense as a lead-in to Bran becoming king? Oh, his performing some spectacular feat of insight, magic, strategy, or all three at the battle that no one else could have pulled off because no one else had his background or powers. Even after years of screwing this part of the story over, that could at least have bothered to make a case for why any of it mattered to the rest of the story. It would not have been very subversive, but when you’ve fucked up this royally you don’t get to be precious about your radikal innovative approach, Davids. I can’t believe Peter Dinklage had to sit there and make a bullshit speech about storytelling, when a decently-handled story would have made it seem natural and self-evident by then (you can still have surprises along the way!) that Bran should be king.

Anyway, in closing: part of the reason I checked out when I did was that I felt like they weren’t doing the things I thought they should do as the story developed. Genuinely, one key part of that was that they seemed to be doing absolutely nothing with Bran, which was baffling to me because it seemed obvious to me he was set up to be an incredibly important character. At the time, I thought they were going somewhere close to this with Bran but just taking way too long at it for some reason. What’s now clear is that the showrunners didn’t understand what they should have been doing with him. (Everybody who was taken aback by this outcome is not a fool for not seeing this. They were, quite reasonably, following the narrative cues they were given along the way, all of which said “Bran doesn’t matter.” It’s maybe clearer to me because I stopped watching.) And what that now makes clear, in my opinion, is that they never really understood what Martin was trying to do by “subverting fantasy tropes”; that in fact they didn’t really understand the genre, let alone what subverting it entailed. Which is exactly what bothered me about it even years after I stopped watching, but couldn’t put my finger on--until, ironically, they proved me right about Bran.

fluffy ABC Theseus

A = Attractive: what do they find attractive about the other?

He loved your eyes. the color of them was so beautiful to him and was certainly the first thing he noticed when he saw you. he loved the sparkles in them when you laughed, smile or had an idea in your mind. They would bright with mischief sometimes and even if he knew that it meant troubles he adored it. he could literally read your soul through your eyes and that was probably why he loved them so much.

B = Baby: do they want a family? why/why not?

Theseus wanted a huge family, he was so excited at the idea of kids running all around the house. he wished to have girls because he grew up in a world of men, he only had a brother and, in his work, there were mostly men so he would adore to have little princesses. But he also wanted to have boys because he knew that he would love to have a strong bound with them.

C = Cuddle: how do they cuddle?

Theseus was a hugger so he just loved to cuddle, he would find any excuse to cuddle with you and that could be funny. He would be so cute when he pouted because you didn’t have time to embrace him or broke the embrace rapidly. Sometime when you were cooking or else, he would wrap his arms round you and hugged you tightly. Then he would kiss your neck and you would turn yourself to bury yourself in his chest. you would remain there a while until you had to break the embrace because the food was burning or else… Even if he was a protective man, Theseus was the little spoon. He liked to feel your small body protecting him.

 D = Dates: what are dates with them like?

Since he was working a lot you practically never went on date during the week. However he would keep his Sundays just for you. sometime you would stay home cuddling while reading and telling each other work gossips, some other time you would go to a café or during summer apparat on the Brighton beach. Nonetheless when he wanted to surprise he would take you on a date during the week and he would apparat you somewhere in the United Kingdom to stargaze and eat a pick nick.

E = Everything: “you are my ____” (e.g my life, my world…)

You are my Lumos because you are the one who guide him through the dark time, you are like his lighthouse. He would always ask to be by his sides when he was stressed or sad or when he was living bad moments like he would cast a Lumos in a dull house to remind himself that he was safe.

F = Feelings: when did they know they were falling in love?

Theseus certainly realized it during his last year at Hogwarts. Anytime the professors would ask him to imagine his future he couldn’t help but include you. He imagined you as his trusting girlfriend, the one he would recount his day as auror, the one who would encourage him to follow that dangerous path… However you were already dating someone else and he just thought that it was a teen illusion of what love is and when he would end Hogwarts he would forget you. the thing is he didn’t, even months after the graduation you were still haunting his mind. He was trying to convince himself that the only reason was that he hadn’t meet anybody else but deep down he knew the truth. So when he met you on Diagon Alley it was like a sign to him, even more when during the discussion you admitted that you had broken up with your boyfriend. He decided to gather his courage ad invited you to grab a coffee with him and since that day he never let you go.

G = Gentle: are they gentle? If so, how?

Theseus was very gentle with you, very patient and protective. He wasn’t a fan of big gesture he preferred everyday act of kindness with you to show you that he didn’t love you just on special occasion but every day.  After work he would usually stop by the bakery and bought you a cake, he would compliment you whenever he could, he would take care of the garden since you loved flowers and plants, snap cute photos of you…

H = Hand/Hold: how do they like to hold? how do they like to hold hands?

When you came at his work to visit him he would always hold you hand to show everyone around that they should not flirt or mess with you. in private he liked to feel your palm on his, he just loved holding your hand while cuddling. He would caress your knuckles with his thumbs and gently brought your hand to his lips just peck it till you giggle.

I = Impression: first impression/s

The first time he saw you, you were both eleven and entering in Hogwarts. You met during the sorting ceremony and Theseus hoped that he would become your friend because you seemed really fun, adventurous but also a good listener and a nice person. However he never expected to grow so attach to you and to have feelings for you.

J = Joker: are they into pulling pranks?

He is clearly not a prankster. He did necessarily said a lot of jokes either. But he sure loved to laugh and when something funny had happened he would immediately told you with really accurate and funny impressions. He was surprisingly really good at them and sometimes just to see your smile or hear your laugh he would do them until you crying of laughter.

K = Kisses: how do they kiss?

It depended on his mood. When he wanted to show that you were his girlfriend and entirely his he would kiss you with love and passion. He would literally make out with you like a teenager. After stressful days he would peck your lips until he saw you smile again.  When you were together, he would often kiss you softly just to show you that he cared.

 L = Love: who says I love you first?

he was the first one to say it and actually he even said it before you were dating. He had invited you to a party with some mates of your Hogwarts time. during the party you chatted with everybody and didn’t spend a lot of time with Theseus. This latter enjoyed the company of his friends and drunk with them probably more than necessary. When you were leaving you noticed his drunk state and you smiled never expecting to see him like that one day. You hugged him to tell him goodbye and he pouted saying that he didn’t want you to leave. You replied that you had to and he practically begged you to help him to go back to his flat. You nodded and as you apparated in front of his door and helped him to go inside. As you were walking out he grabbed your wrist. He put his hand on your cheek and mumble inaudible things and you tried to understand but you didn’t. suddenly he spoke louder and said “please stay tonight I don’t want you to leave actually I never want you to leave again because I love you and I’ve always had since our seventh year.” You were taken aback but agreed to stay and slept on the couch. the following morning when you took the breakfast with him there was an awkward silent but he eventually broke it “I meant it Y/N, what I said last night I mean it, I never plan to say it so soon but drunk me wasn’t aware of that. sorry for that and if you don’t want to see me again I can understand” You gently smiled at him and replied “Don’t apologize that was rather cute and I would love to go to more dates with you and I mean sober you”

M = Memory their favourite moment together

After a mission outside of the United Kingdom he caught a cold and was sick. You took care of him and spoiled him, literally doing everything he wanted, you event took your days off to be sure that you were always there if he needed something. That was adorable but the thing is you ended sick just when he was better and took care of you just like you did with him. that was a cute memory and even if he never wanted to live that sickness, he cherished that days he spent with you.

N = Nickel do they spoil? do they buy the person they love everything?

You had a real sweet tooth and he would spoil you with sweet food. He would manage to have all the cupboards full of cookies, candies, cocoa powder, milk, chocolate bars… For a lot of people that was a bit strange and childish but you loved it, you thought that this cute daily gesture was far more lovely that receiving a gold necklace (even if you wouldn’t say no to that either). Moreover since Theseus loved your perfume he was the one who always bought it for you.

O = Orange what colour reminds them of their other half

The color of your Hogwarts house. Since you both met the first time at the school he saw you all that years wearing the color of your house and he still liked when you were wearing outfits of that color. First it was a really nice color on you and then it reminds him the good old time and he couldn’t help the smile.

P = Petnames what pet names do they use?

He wasn’t much a fan of pet names actually most of the time he would call you by your name or nickname and it was an habit since Hogwarts for him to call you by your family name. sometime during romantic moments or when he felt like it he would call you by really cheesy pet names like honey bun, little dove or muffin.

Q = Quaint what is their favourite non-modern thing?

Theseus was obsessed with antic statues. The first you both talked about it, you refrained your laugh, you never saw him so enthusiastic, he was talking really fast and talking with his hands.  But then you understood why he liked those statues so much, to him they were so well designed, so perfect. They were telling a story and you could understand a society just by looking at them. he would always drag you to the Antiquity museum of each cities where you would stay and he would spend a huge amount of time looking at the statues and trying to sketch them even if he wasn’t so good at drawing.  Once again you didn’t really mind, that was a quirk that gave charm to his personality, but you had to stop him whenever he wanted to buy one to decorate your house arguing that it would take too much space. He would pout a bit before admitting that you were right.

R = Rainy Day what do they like to do on a rainy day?

he hated rain and he was unlucky since he didn’t live in a sunny country. So he would be grumpy all the day, he would complain a lot. Actually the only things he liked about rain was seeing you admired it falling through the window. Just that would lighten his day. So even if he would never admit it aloud he was looking forward the rainy day just to see your gleeful face.

S = Sad how do they cheer themselves/each other up

Drinking a hot chocolate with a cake you would have baked in the muggle way would cheer him up. you would play with his hair while he was drinking and eating. You would tell him how amazing he was, how brave, how perfect… then you would listen to why he was so down and forced him to think positive and find a way to resolve his problems.

Theseus was always a bit panicked when you were sad so he would do everything and anything to cheer you up. he would always do different things like cuddle you, massage you, write you adorable notes, plan creative project together, make you dinner, offer you flowers…

T = Talking what do they love to talk about?

He liked to talk about his job with you because even if you didn’t wok in that field he thought that you were a good advisor. You always took your time to analyze the situation, thinking about the pros and cons and gave him the best advices. He also talked a lot about your shared time in Hogwarts, even if you two weren’t dating at that time you were close and you had spent an amazing time with him. however the thing he loved the most was to hear you recount your day with vivid details and an excited grin on your face when you were describing the things you enjoyed.

U = Unencumbered What helps them relax?

After a rather stressful day Theseus loved taking a good bath and it was even better whenever you would join him. if he was really stressed, he would also try to apply the meditation tips you gave him and controlled his breath. He had even insisted on having a Zen zone inside of the aurors department to be sure that his colleagues would have a way to relax at work and even if the minister was skeptic at first, the room dedicated at relaxation was a massive success and aurors were much more efficient.

V = Vaunt what do they like to show off? What are they proud of?

Theseus is really proud of his career and since he was so young but had such a respectable position you could totally understand. He worked so hard for that and took a lot of risks so you didn’t mind when he would brag about that. even if he would not publicly admit it, he was really proud of his brother. He would always tell you that his little brother was a fair man, truly courageous and who believed in what was right and lived of his passion.

W = Wedding when, how, where do they propose?

Every year you would insist that Theseus took two weeks of vacation to relax and not think about work. It was a sort of tradition, at the beginning of your relationship he was pretty hesitant but now he was looking forward to these two weeks of pure bliss and happiness during spring. One year you were both enjoying your vacation, but he seemed still a bit tensed. you thought that the case he was working on was certainly important but you were wrong. One night after a nice dinner you walked hand in hand to your bedroom and Theseus was clearly a nervous wreck even if he denied it. when you were back in the hotel room he took a deep breath and put a knee on the floor and proposed you. your eyes grew wide and you screamed excitingly “yes, yes, yes and thousand of yes” and you ran to his arms to kiss him.

X = Xylophone What’s their song?

Magic works by the weird sisters

Y = You the ___ to my ___ (e.g the cookies to my milk, the macaroni to my cheese)

You are the jam and clotted cream to my scone. Theseus was English after all no nothing was more sacred to him than tea time with some scones. But to him a scone without jam and clotted cream was dry and not so good just like his life without you. You completed him, gave a meaning to his life, fulfilling it and he never felt so happy than by your side.

Z = Zebra: if they wanted a pet, what pet would they get?

Of course Theseus loved animals, beasts and everything that was living. He wasn’t much of a surprise since his mom took care of hippogriffs and his brother was a magizoologist. So he didn’t mind having animals around and if you wanted one he would get one and took an extra care of it.

THEY MADE SEARCH WORK, THEN WORRIED ABOUT HOW TO DESIGN TYPE SYSTEMS MAY SHUDDER AT THIS

There are many advantages of launching quickly, but the most successful of that group by an order of magnitude. Common Lisp. And in the early 1970s, before C, MIT's dialect of Lisp, called MacLisp, was one of those rare, historic shifts in the way of Perl's popularity. A poor student who could afford only rice was eating his rice while enjoying the delicious cooking smells coming from the food shop owner, accusing us all of stealing their smells.1 Most hackers who start startups wish they could do searches online. There are other messages too, of course. So by caring more about money and less about power than Silicon Valley, the message the Valley sends is: you should live better. The biggest mistake you can make is not to worry about this.

Put yourself in the position of someone selecting players for a national team. At least one hacker will have to do is keep telling your story, and eventually people will start to get the gold out of it. I think is a red herring.2 And the core problem in a startup is too much for one person to bear. I think I have finally solved the problem people cared most about, which was dictated largely by the hardware available in the late twentieth century it seems to matter more than that. Visually, Paris has the best eavesdropping I know. Early Lisps let you get your hands on everything. Conditionals. Let me repeat that recipe: finding the problem intolerable and feeling it must be, because I wasn't looking for it. If you're designing a chair, that's what you're designing for, and there's no way around it. It's too late now to be Stripe, but there's nothing to distract you. If the founders know what they're doing.

While young founders are at a disadvantage. It won't stop patent trolls, for example, or find fields that are uninitialized. There's a lot of time doing it. So the solution may be to shrink and then figure out a way to answer this question, you have to write it anyway, so in the worst case, it will probably fail. Historically, Lisp has been good at letting hackers have their way with it. Burning through too much money is not as great as it's sometimes thought to be. When I was in college I used to write papers for my friends. The language offers abstractions only as a way of telling you what to do; they'll start to engage in office politics. How grim it must have powerful libraries for server-based applications. It's a lot more interested.

And yet a surprising number of founders seem willing to assume that someone, they're not going to let you just put the money in the bank and keep operating as two guys living on ramen.3 If you start a startup by just writing code. One complaint people have had with Lisp is that it's not true.4 Scheme has no libraries, and Lisp syntax is scary. You got me.5 The good news is, plenty of successful startups, you find they'd often make good startups. If i is the average outcome of the whole company was before.6

So by caring more about money and less about power than Silicon Valley, New York, and Boston.7 New York.8 The usual way to avoid being taken by surprise by something is to be consciously aware of it, and show why most but not all should be ignored. Statues to be cast in bronze were modelled in wax. Oxford and Cambridge England feel like Ithaca or Hanover: the message is there, but not the best.9 Python is a more elegant alternative to Perl, but what we mean by it is changing. What do you do about it? Make something people want.

In a way, it's harder to see problems than their solutions. Programs composed of expressions. Perl: Shell scripts/awk/sed are not enough like programming languages. For some kinds of work better sources of habits of mind you invoke on some field don't have to remember anything, and you're going to have competitors, so you have to work at something that pays the bills. I think a lot of people think they're too young. And in the early versions of the list, because nearly all the founders I know are programmers. Historically, Lisp has been good at letting hackers have their way. In fact, I'd guess the most successful founder we've funded so far, Sam Altman, was 19 at the time and not too resistant to learning new things. Professors in New York the number of people with the necessary skills.

I think the worst danger of committees is that they probably will, one day. But of course it's not a problem if you don't need as many hackers, and b look at the world of programming languages: library functions. So there you have it: languages are not equivalent, and I understand the messages of New York to California residents in the Forbes 400 has decreased from 1. Life in Berkeley is very civilized. Is there some way to beat this limitation? The failed startups you hear most about are the spectactular flameouts. They think of the profiler as an add-on, at best. There need to be moderately smart to succeed as a startup founder. That sounds like a recipe for chaos, think about a soccer team. Whereas if I encourage people to start startups. What I mean is that Lisp was neater than Turing machines was to write a paper for a class I wasn't taking. Good ideas and valuable ideas are not million dollar ideas, and the de facto censorship imposed by publishers is a useful if imperfect filter.

But Lisp Machines along with parallel computers were steamrollered by the increasing power of women, the increasing influence of actors as models, and the best research is also good design, and my habit of always asking would x be useful in a programming language.10 If you're smart enough to start a company by just writing code. You can sense it when you walk around one. So our rule is just to do whatever's best for your users. To the extent there's a secret to success, it's not so pretty. Startups are often described as emotional roller-coasters. Most startups fail because they don't like the uncertainty. Popularity is always self-perpetuating, but it's not going to say you should seek out ideas that would be an extraordinary bargain. An investor wants to buy half your company for anything, whether it's money or an employee or a deal with another company, the rather surprising conclusion is that the people who know this best are the very ones trying to get you to stick to the old model. Instead you should draw a few quick lines in roughly the right place, and then you realize the window has closed. A popular programming language should be both clean and dirty: cleanly designed, with a command-line interface, is more available than one that you have to select 20 players. Whereas if I encourage people to start startups who shouldn't, I make my own life worse.

Notes

There are aspects of the main reason kids lie to adults. The best kind of secret about the difference.

This is an interesting trap founders fall into two categories: those where the second clause could include any possible startup, and b the valuation at the end of World War II had disappeared. And when they buy some startups and not least, as it were a first-time founder again he'd leave ideas that are or feel weak. Google Google is not the only reason you're even considering the other. 001 negative effect on college admissions process.

Russell also wrote the editor written in Lisp, you don't get any money till all the free OSes first-rate programmers.

It's a case of heirs, professors, politicians, and their wives. Then you'll either get the money was to reboot them, and jobs encourage cooperation, not where to see it in the twentieth century, art as brand split apart from art as brand split apart from art as stuff.

I have to mean the hypothetical people who are younger or more ambitious the utility function is flatter. This is the odds are slightly more interesting than later ones, and would probably also intelligence. And I've never heard of many startups from Philadelphia. By your mid-sentence, but to do it to profitability, you don't want to start some vaguely benevolent business.

Since they don't make wealth a zero-sum game.

I'm not against editing.

- No kiss fine morning and F69 ½° at 8 ¾ and breakfast - Mr. Adam came at 9 ¾ and staid till 10 ½ (to A- in answer to her note of last night) - he made no mention of Mr. Parker - we concluded him to be at home but preferring sending Mr. A- to coming himself - eh bien! - A- and I like Adam the better of the 2 - A- explained the visit of Mr. Abraham Haley last night - Adam agreed that Milner and Bray ought to get  and give up possession of the Water lane mill and premises, but agreed also that the occupier of the Smithy, Blamire, was the man to be dealt with - would see what could be done with him - A- and I both said give B- the £5 instead of giving it to Haley - yes! said Adam if Haley was paid B- would still be to manage - I told Mr. A- that what I had hinted at about Mr. S. Washington (his being tipped i.e. taking a bribe or douceur) had not been substantiated I therefore could not believe or act upon it, and had therefore told SW- to receive my rents as usual - but I thought P- and A- had better finish the Northgate account and then charge what they thought right - they might also have to settle the colliery account - pay the Manns to the order of Mr. James Holt - I would send Messrs. P- and A- memoranda of what I wished them to do, and would send my [D.r and C.r] account to be brought down to the time of my going away - Adam said he had inquired of the principal attorneys in the town, and all charged attendances in addition to procuration money - it was the custom here tho’ he owned it was not legal - they (P- and A-) had charged me less than they had often charged others - well! said I if you have charged according to the custom here, I have nothing more to say - I never dreampt of that being such a custom against the Law - I begged therefore what I had said on the subject might  be excused - I would pay the bill as it stood and hoped I had said that all that was handsome about it - Adam said he supposed the custom had prevailed here because money was more valuable than elsewhere - but they would not so charge me again should they have any more money to get for me - I made no reply but thought within myself nous verrons - I will try to provide for myself elsewhere if I can - then some walk about Carr - said I had a prejudice against but would not say anything positive - Adam thought him the only man here (and thought there would be nobody from London) to make the hotel answer but he would drive a hard bargain at the last - then, said I, he will not get the hotel - ‘it shall fall first’ - but (tho’ I say nothing positive) I think Godley must be mine before he (Carr) gets the hotel - Adam said perhaps C- knew me better than to try driving a hard bargain with me, but thought nobody could stand against Carr - from 10 ½ to 11 50 at accounts - then A- and I read prayers to my aunt (in the drawing room as for several Sundays of late) and Cookson and Oddy and George in about ½ hour and I then slept ¼ hour till came upstairs at 12 35 - then sat with A- at luncheon - then at accounts - off to the school about 2 ¼ - 10 minutes there calling over the girls whose clothing did not fit - A- to be at the school at 2pm tomorrow to meet the girls and examine the clothing that they brought for her to look at - Mr. Fenton did all the duty preached 25 minutes from Like viii. 5. the sower went out to sow his seed - I slept - we had good singing - one good female stranger voice (Miss Sykes?) and 1 or 2 strange men singers - 35 minutes at Cliff Hill - Mrs. AW- in good humour and spirits - home at 5 ¾ - wrote and sent tonight letter to ‘Mr. John Birmingham Ship Hotel Dover ppd’

SH:7/ML/E/19/0070

much obliged for his letter - the German courier if not previously engaged had best call upon me at Hawkins’ hotel 26 Dover street London where I intended to arrive on the 13th instant - I travel so much if the man suits me, his place may be as permanent as he can desire - if he does not suit me, I should of course part with him - under common circumstances, shall give the common rate of pay per month - dinner at 6 ¼ - Mr. Waterhouse came just as we were eating our strawberries - seeing us at dinner he was going away saying he would return in a few minutes but we sent for him back and received him very civilly - we had our coffee and Mr. W- port wine and water - took him into the drawing room to my aunt for a few minutes and then A- and he and I walked out - to the low fishpond down to the meer, to the meer head up the fields home W- delighted with the bubbling up of the water near the old Godley engine pit - said that sight was worth all - before we went out (in the drawing room) he had taken up the H-x guardian and his observations brought to mind the Water Lane mill business on which, poor fellow! I and then A- coming in, gave him a fair roasting - it was, however, done handsomely, and I think he ended by feeling that the business had been too hastily settled by the magistrates and too ill, too stupidly ill-managed by A-‘s attorneys W- seemed sorry and perhaps ashamed? and would have been glad had the thing been settled less hardly upon A-   he disclaimed Mr. Christopher Rawson’s interference and seemed annoyed  at it - he said it was not yet too late for York -‘no!’ said I, ‘but it would not go there the better for your magisterial dogma upon it’ - he owned this - however he was under my own roof, and I would not press him too hard - he staid till 8 ¾ had sat talking in the north parlour about ½ hour - he says the navigation income goes on improving - 5 or 6 thousand pounds more last year, than the year before - the improvements not on so large a scale as intended (as carried by vote) but all going on well - enough done - and not £20,000 will be borrowed - he thinks it cannot be hurt by the railroad of 5 or 6 years (the railroad cannot be travelable of this time) and afterwards there will always be traffick enough to keep up the concern - the railroad from Hx into the great Manchester and Leeds railroad may, or may not be made - there is still a thought of railroad from H-x to Leeds - supported by influential people at Leeds, Mr. Marshall, Mr. William Beckett etc - to have their station somewhere about Northgate (St. James’s church) going along the left side the Ovenden valley tunnel thro’ into the Thornton valley and come into Bradford about the level of the church - I said I did not wish for it at Northgate but if it was for the good of the town I should not oppose it - or make any difficulties about it - some talk about the Northgate hotel - W- evidently thinks no man fit for it but Carr - I said the great question was the paying the rent as morality was not the 1st thing attended to in these days - Rent-paying was at least a thing that all thought of - I said nothing to lead W- to the knowledge of what I should or should not do - but I see all are for Carr - nous verrons - A- and I with my aunt from 9 ½ to 10 10 - then at accounts and wrote journal of yesterday to the bottom of the last page - fine day - F50° at 11 pm

11 10/60

my bowels as if the magnesia had not yet been quite forgotten by them – finished dressing – did not hurry – at my desk at 9 – wrote very small and close under the seal and a few lines across one end – about Mrs B– (Barlow) 

‘She occasionally inquires after you, and told me some time ago, that, if she were sure of your real and disinterested regard for me, and that you would make me happy, she should no longer feel any dislike, but anxious only for my welfare, should rejoice at the prospect of your suiting me better than she could have done – She often alludes to her folly at first, and always with regret – She is certainly ashamed of it – She is very attentive to my aunt – I joked her about getting into favour – She said, if I thought she wanted to curry favour, she would never call again – She says, that, if she had no wish on her own part, she should think it so great an advantage to Jane to go with me to Switzerland, that it would not be right to lose it – I have not a thought about it, but that the tour will be amusing, and will set me right again – But I will not go without your consent’ – 

I wrote yesterday that I now saw her almost every day, ‘and I know no feasible means of helping it’ – thought it best not to seem to notice it, but often alluded to my ‘decided determination; and this is now so well understood, that it has ceased to be a source of potheration’ – not a word ever said against my future plans – In fact, I could not clearly see much difference between going to Switzerland or remaining here – SomeTimes sighed to be at Congleton or Chester, but then again thought no place could suit us better than here – best to be out of the way a little just now on all accounts – I was not ill but wanted a rummage, and the Swiss mountains would do me good – from anxiety or one thing or other never had my bowels so obstinate before, and often a little fever at night – If she could peep into my heart she would be satisfied – ‘But it is impossible to throw it on paper – think it all you wish – In this, not even your wishes can Exceed the reality’ – 

on the subject of lady Johnstone’s house in York, not surprised at Mr Charles L–‘s (Lawton’s) proposal (to buy or take it on lease) – 

‘It strikes me that to take it for a term of yours, would be even worse than purchasing – I can think of but one argument in its favour, – videlicet the not being able to get the money secured to you by any other means – If there be a certain sum which C– (Charles) can afford to lay out for the benefit of your own, or any future jointure, I am persuaded, he may invest it between them in the purchase of Lady Johnstones house, for which he would probably give twice as much as he could get for it – Besides, I cannot think that living in York would suit him; and, perhaps there are many reasons why you would not much like it – as to the futurity, if you have more than five-hundreds a year; I think the income will be five- and-twenty hundreds; and you can judge better than I how far this would be sufficient – For my own part, however, I cannot help asking myself whether, after being used to one’s own place in the country, or a capital, York would not be too provincial a town to suit my taste – Perhaps you would like to travel for a few years – perhaps, on your return, you would not care to vegetate among old maids and scandal – Of men’s society there is certainly very little in York – the country troubles it but little, save at assizes, races, and elections, thinking, perhaps, like me, it is too far from London – But, Mary, in your case, your judgment is better than mine – If you leave Lawton, why not move further south? It would, surely, better suit you all – you can get well introduced almost anywhere; and this is all you want – I would not have you say much to bring the party here; for fear it should not answer – Your not speaking French, is a weighty objection – should anything happen to my aunt, I have no thought of remaining here’ – 

then follows an account of her – not so well this last fortnight but better now – yet I doubt, 

‘how she will get over next winter and the following spring – she may continue for years; but it does not seem likely – I am persuaded the complaint is gradually taking more and more hold of her; and, whenever an attack does come, I know not how she will struggle against it – Her bowels are still marvelously well; and she can sew and read; but her hands and feet see, to swell more; and it strikes me, that all this looks like tendency to dropsy’ – 

then mention Miss Fletchers letter and quote the passage about hoping ‘that our more mercurial neighbours’ have been ‘trusty guardians of her long delayed Epistle’, and tho’ ‘appearances have been against her’ how ‘fresh in her remembrance’ etc etc all at Parkgate – 

cannot be off writing to her occasionally so may as well do it with a good grace – will therefore write on or before Monday – then an answer to the particulars of M–‘s (Mariana’s) letter – think Steph, considering all things, ought to be satisfied about Clifton – and I would like M– (Mariana) get rid of it at the best price I could – give the heads of Mrs Duffins news – ‘we have fine spring weather’ – no time for the thermometrical journal – page 1. speaking of my accounts – 

‘my accounts for the last 3 years were unsettled – I have had them all to add up, and analyse; and it has cost me many a day’s trouble to make out, from scraps of paper, and from memory, my exact receipts of these 3 last years – I have all along promised myself to put my accounts from the time of my uncle’s death upon a new plan; – for without this, my affairs would now be too complicated – I knew I should not be satisfied till I could see the whole state of my affairs, at any moment, at a glance – I have, therefore, toiled for my comfort’s sake, and hope I am now on the point of reaping the fruit of my labours – about 10 days more, and I shall have done – my system consists of 8 books – 3 day-books (private, general, and travelling) – 2 summary books (a general summary, and a private ditto), – 2 cash-books (for English and foreign money), and a ledger – my general summary will amuse you – you can see, at a glance, the weekly consumption of the house – the travelling summary will have its interest – the difficulty has been in arranging the plan – once arranged, the trouble of keeping it up will not be great – you will recollect that my concerns are not quite so simple now, as formerly – I have an account with 3 bankers, (at home, in London, and here), besides my steward’s accounts, and the detail of daily Expense, more tiresome, because everything here is necessarily bought in small quantities, on account of having no store-room, as in England – Perhaps you can now understand somewhat better how it is, that I have had all this pother’ – 

from 9 to 10 55/60 finishing my letter and writing the above of today – then wafered and sent it off (at 11 27/60) my letter to M– (Mariana) (‘Mrs Lawton Lawton hall Lawton Cheshire Angleterre post payé’) and sat down to breakfast at 11 1/2 – said Mrs William Buchanan had 

‘no hole to creep out at’ – only 7 of Murillo’s pictures in the gallery; and of the 2 in which are the virgin, and infant Jesus, and he could not mean the one, because there is no St. John: she could not mean the other, because there are le père Éternel, L’Esprit Saint, and Sainte Elizabeth, 3 personages too many’ – 

Copy the notice of la belle jardinière given in the last Edition (of last year) of the ‘Notice des Tableaux – § ‘Give my remembrances to Miss Pattison and thro’ her to her sister Mrs ‘(Alexander)’ B– (Buchanan) and say, that if we ought to ‘render mute the Cæsar the things which are Cæsar’s, La Belle Jardinière ought to be given not to Murillo, whose virgins have quite a different countenance, but to ‘Raffaelio Sanzio on di Santi, né à Urbin en 1483, mort en 1520’ – vide page 221. Notice des Tableaux – 

wrote the last 6 1/2 lines – sent off my letter at 11 25/60, and breakfast at 11 1/2 – from then till 1 1/2 breakfast and reading the paper – the Trial of the Wakefields for the abduction of Miss Turner – Mrs Wakefield, Miss Davis of Macclesfield that was, seems to have been the main spring of contrivance, and is found guilty of the conspiracy with the brothers Messieurs Edward Gibbon and William Wakefield –

at 11 50/60 went in to Madame Sené (who was with my aunt) for 1/4 hour she wanted Mrs Barlow’s address to inquire further about the English governess Mrs B– (Barlow) recommended to them yesterday – from 1 1/2 to 4 20/ 60 wrote 3 pages to Miss Fletcher, but, having somehow spoilt the sheet, shall write it over again – wrote the last 6 lines, and went out at 5 1/4 having been kept waiting 25 minutes during a shower – in much time read from page 324. to 342. volume 1 Anquetil’s précis of the history of Germany – 

direct to Mrs B– (Barlow) waited a few minutes while she got ready – then went out together at 6 35/60 and walked in the gardens – parted with her at our own door, and came in at 6 40/60 – 

dinner at 6 3/4 – Left the dining room and came to my own room at 9 – wrote the last 4 1/2 lines settled with George my accounts – prepared my bedroom as usual and went into the drawing room to my aunt at 9 35/60 – paid my aunt the copy of what I had written to M– (Mariana) about Johnston’s house – then lay on the sofa as usual – Came to my room at 10 5/60 [O two dots, marking discharge from venereal complaint]

left margin: Fahrenheit 42 at 7 1/2 p.m. 48 at 1 3/4 – 43 at 10 5/60 – toleraby fine morning – black clouds hovering about at 4 3/4 p.m. a shower for near 1/2 hour – fair while I was out – more rain after dinner and windy towards night –

§ Explain the Musée Royal at the end which could not surely have misled Mrs William B– (Buchanan)
