[scifrey]

Reblogging because there are now nearly thirty chapters posted! If you were waiting until a good chunk had dropped before diving in, now's your time.

Read it here.

NINE-TENTHS

Oh my gosh, the book is now officially out! This is the first original novel I've published since 2018 and I am very excited and very nervous to share it.

☕♥️🐉

➡️ You can read it here. ⬅️

Chapters drop Wednesdays and Saturdays, and if you're worried, the story is already finished and fully uploaded. This is not a WIP that I will abandon later--it's totally complete.

About the book:

Twenty-four is one year too young for a quarter-life crisis, but hey, Colin's always been an overachiever. He's got a degree in Sustainable Tourism, which his family says he's wasting as a barista, an annoying anxiety disorder, and no freaking idea what to do with his life. The only thing going his way is the cute coffee shop regular, a homo draconis named Dav (who, in his humanshape, is a total hottie.) Still, it'd be easier if Dav didn't have a habit of accidentally setting things on fire when he's startled. Like the café kitchen.

When Dav breaks draconic taboo and volunteers as a replacement bean-roaster to apologize for the inferno meet-ugly, sparks really fly. Everything's finally happening for Colin, until he learns that hooking up with Dav means that under dragon law, Colin is absorbed into Dav's hoard.

Possession may be nine-tenths of the law, but becoming his boyfriend's property does not make this whole identity crisis thing easier. Especially now that Colin must navigate politics, paparazzi, and legal questions about his personhood. Colin's still angling for his Happily Ever After, but the growing scrutiny on his relationship with Dav threatens their budding romance. And if he's not careful, Colin's fight for agency may just destroy symbiotic human/dragon relationships worldwide.

You know what I just realised?

The Serpents wear skulls masks.

Skull. Masks.

Skull.

[asshole-rebel-psycho]

The older I get the more I realize these things about dating.

I have been trying to have deep connections and stimulating conversations for some time.

This doesn't seem to work. Especially on dating apps for I guess obvious reasons.

But as an observant, shy, lonely and somewhat intelligent person ( who happens to be gay) I have unfortunately never found love or relationships myself.. I have only seen it through other people

It's pretty apparent that dating is for simple people. I don't mean this in an arrogant way but a majority of individuals seem to not take the question asking part of dating seriously. Idk if this is due to them not being attracted, busy, simple minded or a more narcissistic culture but it is apparent to me that the closer these people are to my location, the less they are willing to learn more about me.

I wonder why that is? 🤔 I've had plenty of engaging online, non dating app conversations with people all over the world.

So part of me thinks that this is due to our new emotionless, soulless culture. Because this problem only exists when I engage with potential matches that can turn into reality.

The need for connection is still there. Fear is holding us back.

Why are people so afraid of reality? What are they running from? Themselves? Other people? Is the world in such a bad place right now that we feel like if we make a connection we know it will probably end up broken like the society we live in? 💔

The more I observe dating and other people's love lives the more it is apparent to me that deep, intellectual, stimulating conversations are not a part of the game AT ALL.

( take it as a grain of salt but from my observations dating goes like this)

One, attraction is the 1# thing! Because if you don't have it there is no fuel to get anything going. The car won't even get out of the lot. Especially off apps.

Secondly, the man usually takes action by getting the girl on the date as fast as possible..he has to woo her by showing her a fun, spontaneous, adventurous, humorous, and flirtatious time.

It is usually filled with banter, funny nostalgic stories, flirting and none of that would even matter if the two ( especially the man who usually carries the convo) was not attracted.

You can seriously make anything work with mutual sexual attraction. I've seen two plain and boring people talk for hours about nothing but because they had those saucer eyes for eachother it just worked! They definitely don't talk about work or deep concepts.

So the man drains his ( or if hes in his 20s) his daddy's resources on the girl to have a "fun" time..meanwhile his sexual motivation is keeping it going because she obviously has many other options.

The girl then looks pretty and vets if he is worthy for a LTR.

If so, she gets brought into this new, advantageous, silly, successful man's life and uses him as a tool to get away from her boring and domesticated life. She uses him for fun, community, hobbies and eventually family.

She uses his resources as a way to post on tiktok, fb and ig to show off to all of her friends " look at the amazing, good looking and successful guy I am able to get" mostly to show status as a woman and to make her friends jealous..because they were mean to her in the past.

None of her *connection* to her man has pretty much anything to do with conversation. ( sounds harsh I know but hear me out)

If you doubt this why do men and women immediately separate at Christmas parties and work events?

Have you ever observed a straight guy talking to a straight girl before? At any age?

It's usually a girl talking with her friends about things that doesn't interest him and his eyes roll over astrology and the girl eye rolling about video games or sports banter. Exc...

It's pretty obvious how for 95% of the population..male and female worlds have NOTHING to do with eachother. And want NOTHING to do with eachother except for what each gender lacks...

Emotional support from the woman and financial stability from the man. What binds them is sex and what keeps them together is family.

This is why my nerdy lesbian ass has such a hard time with dating. Lol

In the typical female way I am relying too much on talking, not much action. And in a very unfair lesbian way I can't seem to find my opposite.

I am trying to find an intellectual match when I should just be finding my feminine opposite. I'm treating dating like lunch dates with friends, Like men discussing politics on the Titanic while smoking cigars.

Unless I want to talk to a mirror long conversation isn't the way to go.

Because it never was to begin with. This is the code I finally cracked. Lol 😆

I'll leave the cerebral banter and philosophical insights to the lonely, individualistic writer side of me..the side of many great minds in history...But even a great writer will drop his work like a hot potato as soon as he finds a woman he is undeniably in love with. 🥰

My point is to find my opposite not my reflection. And my opposite might surprise me with what they can give or know...even if it's not deep or extremely interesting to me. This goes for any gender. Love doesn't work that way.

5 star reads of 2024 ↳ take a hint, dani brown by talia hibbert

[anotherthoughtthatwillhauntme]

☆ Kayden X Gareth—

The hallway was alive with chatter, the rhythmic tap of shoes against polished floors blending with the scent of coffee and ambition. It was the usual morning chaos—students buzzing with half-hearted conversations, eyes heavy with exhaustion or filled with ruthless determination.

Gareth Carson didn’t stop for any of it.

He moved through the crowd like a king among pawns—unbothered, untouchable. Every inch of him screamed control. From the blazer draped over his shoulders to the slicked-back blond hair, to the sharp green eyes that cut through the noise without hesitation.

No one got in his way.

Except for him.

Kayden Lockwood.

The only man who had ever made Gareth’s pulse stutter. The only man who had ever dared to look at him like he already owned him.

And he was looking now.

Leaning against the wall like he had all the time in the world, arms crossed over his chest, sleeves rolled up just enough to reveal strong forearms—because of course, everything Kayden did was calculated.

His smirk was lazy. Amused. Dangerous.

"Running from me again, little monster?"

Gareth didn’t pause, didn’t let his step falter, but Kayden was already pushing off the wall, matching his pace, effortlessly slipping into his space.

“Don’t start,” Gareth muttered.

Kayden’s lips curved. “I never start anything, sweetheart. You just don’t like how I finish things.”

Gareth clenched his jaw, refusing to engage. Kayden was always like this—charming, infuriating, a problem wrapped in a perfectly pressed shirt and the scent of expensive cologne.

Kayden hummed, gaze dropping. “Hate to break it to you, love, but even golden boys have flaws.”

“What?”

Kayden inclined his head toward Gareth’s feet.

Gareth followed his gaze.

His shoelace.

Untied.

His jaw ticked. “I can handle it.”

Kayden tsked, dark eyes gleaming with something wicked. “Of course you can,” he murmured. “But will you?”

And then—

He knelt.

Right there.

In the middle of the goddamn hallway.

Gareth’s breath locked in his throat.

The world stopped.

Gasps. Whispers. The kind of stunned silence that made the air feel suffocating.

"Is he—?"

"What the hell—"

"Oh my god—"

Kayden’s fingers—slow, deliberate, unapologetic—grasped the loose shoelace, tying it with absurd precision. He wasn’t rushed. He wasn’t flustered. He knew what he was doing.

Making a statement.

And worse—making Gareth let him.

Gareth inhaled sharply. “Get. Up.”

Kayden didn’t even blink. He finished tying the knot, then patted Gareth’s shoe, voice silk-smooth.

“What’s the matter, Carson? You don’t like being taken care of?”

Gareth’s fingers twitched. He wanted to shove him. Punch him. Drag him up by his shirt and—

No.

Not here. Not in front of everyone.

Kayden finally rose, slow and controlled, like he was daring Gareth to react. Their bodies were too close now. Too close.

Gareth could feel the heat radiating off him, could smell the faint spice of his cologne. His stomach tightened.

Kayden leaned in. Voice low. Dangerous.

“You should thank me.”

Gareth’s pulse hammered. “For what?”

Kayden smirked. “For making you look owned.”

Gareth’s breath shook.

He turned, shoving past him before he did something stupid.

Like let Kayden see just how right he was.

Sorry, Bro by Taleen Voskuni

Today's sapphic book of the day is Sorry, Bro by Taleen Voskuni!

Summary: "An Armenian-American woman rediscovers her roots and embraces who she really is in this vibrant and heartfelt queer rom-com by debut author Taleen Voskuni.

When Nar’s non-Armenian boyfriend gets down on one knee and proposes to her in front of a room full of drunk San Francisco tech boys, she realizes it’s time to find someone who shares her idea of romance.

Enter her mother: armed with plenty of mom-guilt and a spreadsheet of Facebook-stalked Armenian men, she convinces Nar to attend Explore Armenia, a month-long series of events in the city. But it’s not the mom-approved playboy doctor or wealthy engineer who catches her eye—it’s Erebuni, a woman as equally immersed in the witchy arts as she is in preserving Armenian identity. Suddenly, with Erebuni as her wingwoman, the events feel like far less of a chore, and much more of an adventure. Who knew cooking up kuftes together could be so . . . sexy?

Erebuni helps Nar see the beauty of their shared culture and makes her feel understood in a way she never has before. But there’s one teeny problem: Nar’s not exactly out as bisexual. The clock is ticking on Nar’s double life, though—the closing event banquet is coming up, and her entire extended family will be there, along with Erebuni. Her worlds will inevitably collide, but Nar is determined to be brave, determined to claim her happiness: proudly Armenian, proudly bisexual, and proudly herself for the first time in her life."

[flufflecat]

Once again feeling annoyed that basically no one in the rrverse fandom acknowledges Apollo. They're always like "oh we need more rep, surely this this and this character is secretly queer and rick just won't admit it or something" when man. Lester's RIGHT there. Why are you ignoring CANON queer content, then acting like it'd be better for the author to retcon some shoehorned queering of straight characters into existence? Like. It's fun to have previously straight characters be changed to be queer, but that obviously wouldn't be the intention the whole time, and it's kind of disingenuous for an author to pretend it was intentional all along and get praised for it. I feel insane, shouting at people who want more lgbt characters in pjo like "LESTER EXISTS AND HES LITERALLY EVERYTHING YOU COULD EVER WANT." Would PERCY ever say he has a "frisson of pleasure go up his back" at the thought of pipers hot dad? No. He wouldn't, thank you very much.
