Good Omens Fic Rec: creature of mine
"Dunno why, but s'not working this time. M'not resssponding to it." Crowley's eyes flickered with something entirely unreadable. "I need a warm body." "I see." "Can't even use my fingers properly with these bloody claws. Still, feels better to have something warm, something moving." Aziraphale attempted to make sense of Crowley's words, his head pounding viciously. A warm body. "Would you like me to... hold you again?" Crowley smiled, open-mouthed and beastly. His fangs glistened in the darkness. "Need you to fuck me, angel." Or: Aziraphale buys Crowley a snake plant, hoping to please Crowley with the appealing smell of its flowers. Its effects on Crowley are far more extreme than Aziraphale anticipated, and it’s down to him to face them head-on.
Length: 21,253 Words
AO3 Rating: Explicit / Spice Level 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Best for: After Dark, Canon AU
Triggers: None
Read it here, fic by ineffabildaddy, omens_for_ophelia
*Minor Spoilers* Buckle in, it's long post time. I admit to bias in the length of this post because I love this author, but above all, my enjoyment of this story is so genuine and I am so proud to recommend that you all read it too. This was written for the sex pollen event that has been going on recently (so many more for me to read!) and it's one I knew was coming but didn't know too many details about. So when I woke up to the email that it was posted, I knew I was going to have such a good morning, and oooh boy did I.
Caught outside in the rain, Aziraphale steps briefly into an exotic plant shop to stay dry. When he spots a beautiful flowering snake plant, well, he's free from Heaven now and free to buy his friend a gift. And what a gift it will be when they realize that the plant's pollen contains the exact pheromones that trigger Crowley's snake desires. Even though I knew exactly where this was going, the actual journey was so intoxicating. When the effects first take hold, neither of them knows exactly what to do. Both are locked into shame and embarrassment over the situation, but the trust and protection they have for each other is sturdy. Crowley struggles with losing control and the pain of vulnerability, while Aziraphale tries desperately to deny his own wants and desires. He represses it all to protect Crowley. And isn't this just the most beautiful metaphor for their entire relationship? As always, they get there in the end. It's as heartwarming as it is sensual. I will never tire of them completely surrendering to each other.
The thing I always love most about this narrative style is how it blends poetry and smut. It will paint with gorgeous prose and then snap our attention back with its explicit language. It's thrilling to me and a shining example of how rich smut stories can be. I'm awed and horny! And I have to say, this was such a clever and interesting take on Crowley's snake body! Naga/Monster fuckers, this one needs to be made a priority for you. It was described in excellent detail but also depicted gorgeously by the included art! I've still got goosebumps over the third piece of included art! The color palette! The bodies!! The emotion! I'm in love. Both author and artist have a talent for making me feel so at home in my own body with their works. I just trust them implicitly, and they make it so easy to imagine how everything would feel to my own skin.
This is an at-home, after-dark read. It will have you sweating and squirming, but also in awe of their closeness and the trust they have in each other. How endless their devotion is. How beautiful this story is. But let's be real, I'm also thinking about how fun their next round with this plant could be now that they're on the same page. Next time, with the walls completely down, they are going to have the most pleasurable night of their life for the rest of their lives.

Tmnt boys n fem!reader riding them for the first time🫢 also instead of the normal moans babygorl growls as well (idl i find it hot when women do it sksksk im gay asl lol) if not thats okay love your fics and i hope you feel better🥺🙏🏾
TMNT reaction to s/o riding them
A/n: Thank you for requesting!! I am so sorry this took so long to do. I got like a burn out from writing and just had to take some time off. But I hope you like it!
Warning: if spicy stuff makes you uncomfortable please don't read this!
Leonardo
He doesn't know how to feel
Like at all
Bc let's be honest it would take some convincing for him to let you ride him
And not bc he didn't like it
He knew he would
His concern was he would like it to much
And Lord once you were riding him he was in heaven
And then you growled??
Soul: snatched
He really wished he would have let it happen sooner
Bc your so pretty and you sound so pretty and gosh was this just everything he knew it was gonna be
He's gonna be so loud tho
Soundproof everything type loud
I definitely see him being the type to grip your hips and guiding you
Enjoy your bruises bc he's gonna leave a lot
But honestly be prepared bc ya'll are gonna have to do it again
He'll never get tired of it tbh
Raphael
Oooh boy was he waiting for this!
He was so excited to try it!
He's definitely one of those people who want to try everything, but he isn't gonna ask he'll wait for you to proposition it first.
And Lord was he absolutely living for the whole event
And then you growled and it caught him off guard
Fully stopped what he was doing to stare at you
And then he's gonna recover from it and take hold of your hips and absolutely break your 🐱
Most definitely gonna growl back tho
Gonna leave a lot of bruises on your hips and other places
He's definitely gonna leave a lot of hickeys just anywhere he can
Good luck tho bc he's not gonna be easy on you
Your growl was just everything to him
Donatello
Say your prayers
Bc let's be fr Donnie is a freak in the sheets
You will absolutely have to try everything and he's gonna love every position so when you want to ride him
Ooh Lord good luck he's been waiting for it to happen
He's gonna be so sweet up until you growl
Absolutely gonna take control by just holding your hips and going in on you
Not to mention he's going to say very naughty things in your ear
He'll need to rinse his mouth with holy water after he's done speaking type naughty things
All while leaving kisses and bites on your neck and shoulders and breasts
Just anywhere he can reach tbh
Your so gonna have to do it again
Michelangelo
Not gonna realize your serious until he looks at your face
And he's gonna be so into it
But so scared to mess something up bc he wants it to be good for you
So your probably gonna have to take the lead bc he's panicking just a lil
But once you growl oh boy are you in for it
he's gonna growl back and then hold onto your hips and start snapping his to meet yours
He's so into it tho like he's probably gonna forget to take it easy so you might have to remind him not to break you
It's just so perfect and your so pretty and there is so much happening for him
And you growling is not helping at all bc it's so sexy to him
He's gonna want to do it again for sure

Oooh for your spiderman au and Jace’s girl accidentally seeing him, I have some workshop ideas to help with your writers block
Maybe he was catching or chasing a criminal near her house and he pops by her window to look in a check on her, to make sure she’s alright and not in danger.
He gets smitten when he sees her reading peacefully in her pajamas. Maybe she is wearing one of Jace’s sweatshirts since they are “best friends”😉
He doesn’t want to be seen but he is so in love with her and giving her heart eyes, that he slips and makes a noise so she looks up and is like “Oh shit, it’s Spiderman”
Jace slipped so hard that he’s hurt and bleeding. His girl invited him in so she can patch him up with her first aid kid. He knows that he heals quickly, but you don’t know that. She sits him on her bed and he is having very teenage boy thoughts like “Oh gods, I’m on her bed. I never thought I would actually be on her bed. I’ve fantasized about being on her bed or rather in her bed, for years”. He maybe feels a little guilty for having sexual thoughts about you while you are helping him but he is just so in love with you.
He feels guilty but he selfishly lets you dote on him a little bit, showing him affection and giving him feather light touches. He is super flustered and is blushing under his mask and suit. He has to make effort to disguise his voice and make it comically deeper so she doesn’t recognize his voice but he is so in love with her, he is in her room late at night, she is in her pajamas and that it is making it very difficult to concentrate.
She lightly teases him like “Were you spying on me Spiderman? A young girl alone in her room?” Jace is all flustered and stuttering and is all “Uh….well no…not exactly….I was chasing some robbers and they came this way and I just wanted to make sure you were okay…I mean I was checking on everyone but I just wanted to check on you” or something like that. She loves that strong superhero Spiderman is flustered because of her. She tells him she is just teasing him. This is the first time he’s been alone in a girls bedroom, not counting when he and Luke would hang out with their cousins, Baela and Rhaena. This is the first time you have had a boy in your bedroom. You two both get nervous when you realize it and you both feel the atmosphere change when you both have the same thought at the same time. You two both seem to be in sync and have a friendly, easy banter and you are surprised that you get along so well with this stranger. Maybe you two bond over things you like and have in common like books and movies and you think “Jace and I love those things too”. Like in such denial that this is clearly Jace in disguise. It is almost comical.
When you are cleaning and patching his wound, I imagine Jace looking around your room just swooning because this is your space. He heart swells and he almost cries when he noticed a framed picture of the two of you on your nightstand, right next to your pillow. Maybe it’s a picture of the two of you apple picking or some sort of favorite memory of his, with you. Like going to the beach or something very “coupley”, know what I mean? Like other people look at that particular picture and assume you two are dating because your faces are right next to each other, your arms are wrapped around one another and you are snuggled together. Little do you know, Jace also thinks of that photo as his favorite and he has a copy on his wall on his room at home.
Maybe feeling cheeky, Jace asks if that is your boyfriend and you say “Oh that’s my best friend Jace.” and his heart drops until you drop a hint that you have a crush on Jace are in love with Jace like maybe “Oh no that’s not my boyfriend. I wish he was though, but I think he sees me as a sister” or maybe something more vague like “Oh no that’s not my boyfriend but I wish…” and you cut yourself off and announce that he’s all patched up as Jace wishes with every bone in his body that you would finish your thought as he was hanging on to your every word. This entire interaction, Jace is resisting the urge to rip the mask off and lay you down on the bed and kiss you senseless.
She finishes patching him up and maybe feels guilty because she is secretly in love with her best friend Jace and she is excited to be flirting with Spiderman. She resists the urge to kiss his bandaged wound and she doesn’t know why she had such an intimate and personal urge in the first place since Spiderman is a stranger to her. But, she feels strangely drawn to him…as if she has known him for years…
The two of them both feel guilty for different reasons
I CANT FUCKING BELIEVE IVE MISSED RHIS AND IM BOOKING IT SO I CAN GET TO WRITING ROM COM GONE WRONF — i love uuuu thank u for this i’m freaking out ahahshshs

I hope you feel better! What sort of things do you feel are rampant in the rpc? Do you think they are things that are easy to improve?
oooh boy now THIS is definitely going under a read more because the yapping i'm about to do....
Let me start off by saying a lot of things "wrong" with the rpc are easy to improve as a whole but much harder to improve individually since really a lot of this comes down to individuals and a "vocal minority" in a sense.
I think there's a lot of underlying elitism as a whole in the rpc whether its purposeful or just a byproduct of existing on this site. And a lot of this also results in a very "cliquey" vibe that stretches across every fandom. Now I'm not saying that having a friend group that you tend to prioritize a bit is bad, we all do that, i mean going out of your way to exclude people that try to extend a conversation of interacting, especially if you happen to be mutuals with them.
And I get that OOC interactions can be a little rough especially when social interactions can be hard for people, but if that's the case, then why be mutuals with someone if you're either not going to reach out first, OR interact with them at all if THEY reach out first? Idk that whole thing is just frustrating to me and I think that it's something that definitely needs to be improved on as a whole.
This next thing is just a little more personal and to some people i might sound like I'm whining but it's genuinely an issue with roleplay as a whole and not really just on tumblr.
The topic of a strange aversion to female characters, and OCs. And particularly female OCs. I talked about this with a mutual briefly earlier and they helped me feel a little better about speaking up on this. To be blunt, it still sucks to be an OC writer on tumblr, especially if it happens to be a female OC (don't even get me started on female CANONS though lmao that's a whole other convo-) and especially if you're not really "popular" within the rpc already.
I quite literally have one of my blogs on a momentary hiatus because he was getting a little too much attention. Meanwhile it was nearly crickets here at one point, and I won't lie it does hurt quite a bit. But I'm not going to blame everyone entirely, people have their preferences and that's understandable.
As someone who is a cis woman, i started out on tumblr writing female OCs, and slowly when i found myself getting more comfortable writing male OCs I also found myself getting more consistent interactions. It felt like people were actually getting excited to write with me. And younger me was loving it! I didn't even realize anything was weird as I eventually transitioned over to just writing male OCs entirely for a time. Female OCs still existed on my blog but they were collecting dust.
It wasn't until recently (post 2020 ish) that i really dived back into my female characters and it was around that that I had started to notice the trend as well. I dedicated myself to female OCs in particular and I noticed a pretty steep decline in interactions as a whole. Yea, maybe you can say it was a coincidence until I started writing a male OC again and things steadily increased once again.
Also, I dearly love interacting with other people's OCs, wholeheartedly so. But who wouldn't want to interact with a canon character as well? Other OC writers are extremely welcoming, I've rarely found someone that actively writes OCs more often than not that's not sweet as can be (there are exceptions but i won't get into that).
I've noticed though that (not all obviously but it's definitely a chunk) a decent bit of the elitism that I mentioned before comes from these canon writers. The ones that are "popular" and are actually well known in the space, while most can be just as nice, there's that "vocal minority" that can easily leave quite a bad taste in your mouth.
Like i said, it's a pretty vocal minority. Most if not all of my mutuals that write canons are absolutely not in this category. But still there are some that-
this is going to sound so bad but i promise it's not it's just that i cannot find a better way to word this-
Make me as an OC writer, idk, feel lesser? Like if i'm not one of their close friends that also happens to write an OC it feels more like it's simply an obligation to try and write with me than it is a mutual "excitement" i guess.
I don't know, it's just that even with some mutuals, there's a lack of mutuality and sometimes it makes me wonder why we're even mutuals. Maybe that's just a bit of insecurity talking but honestly at this point it's just incredibly frustrating than it is disheartening anymore.
Like, I do not care how slow you are as a writer, I would just be happy with some sort of reciprocation OOC???? I don't know if that sounds entitled, I know people have busy lives but to see people boasting about ships or plots that theyve been talking about with other people when I've been trying actively to plot with them or even just converse with them is also now more frustrating than disheartening these days lol.
ANYWAYS HAHA
yea that sure was a yap session and a half, I don't know how many of you will make it to this point but if you did thank you so much for hearing me out and hopefully I didn't really offend anyone that badly at any point LMAO
#ʚ♡ɞ 𝘣𝘢𝘣𝘣𝘭𝘦 ━ ooc.#cw vent#cw negative#I'll tag this one as negative too since it kinda is at some points lol

Hantengu clones × Makima! Reader. 👉👈
Please. Also, sorry for my English.
(If Makima is from Chainsaw Man, I hope you read/watched)
Hantengu clones with a Makima!Reader
Warnings: Controlling reader, Reader is based off a female person, But gender isnt mentioned at all. Slight spoilers for Csm part 2
Notes: Your English is fine!! I read part 1 and a few chapters of part 2 of chainsaw man, So I can write for A Makima!reader!! Also, Keep in mind that Makima is controlling, So these relationships are toxic.
SEKIDO
For some odd reason, He can't bring himself to yell at you, All he can feel are these Mushy, Disgusting , Feelings and he's Nice to you somehow.
He hates how you treat him like a dog, But he always listens in fear of what you Can/might do.
..his body feels like it's moving by itself, Which horrified the anger clone, His whole body was trying to leave you—To Run. To run far, Far, Away from you. You aren't a person.. You're a thing.. how else could you be so evil and uncaring? You can give Muzan a run for his money.
Your hand Gently cups Sekido's face, Sweet dripping from Him as your Hypnotic patterned eyes observed his face. “ Sit, Doggy. ” He grumbled from your command, He does it anyway. “ Good boy. ”
AIZETSU
He loves you. At least he thinks so.
He loves your touch, Everytime you leave, He sits at the door until you come back.
He never complains in your presence, He Always feels no sorrow while being around you, Even if he is a clone of sorrow.
He's your lovely dog. It doesn't matter that he's being controlled. He loves you so much that it hurts him.
“My cute Little sorrow clone," You coo Affectionately, His Head in your lap as you stroked his Hair, He's so easy to control, Terribly Easy.. The clones were trying to warn him, But he Didn't listen to them. Only your opinion mattered to him.
KARAKU
He stops flirting with other people, After meeting you.
He finds you and your dogs to be so sweet, Even if they do cause messes, He always helps getting stuff clean.
He doesn't know why he likes you. Everytime a person asks. He replies with a ‘ I don't know. ’ Sure, you have many good traits, But he still doesn't know exactly what he likes about you.
You and Karaku went out to get some dog treats, Karaku looked around for some as you found bone shaped one, playfully, You dangled one Infront of his face. “ Hey, Want one? ” You asked playfully, To no one surprise (Becuase of your control devil abilities) He ate one, He chews, Seemingly thinking, “Mmm, Dunno, They taste bad. ” You giggled.
UROGI
Would love to be your dog. Just like denji!
Hes quite the strong ‘Tool' as-well. He's always hyper and eager to serve you in any way possible.
Of course, You don't mind. He would literally put himself over a puddle and let you step on him.
He loves you so much!! He reminds you of a certain owl-girl (yoru)
“ Oooh, Ooh! (Name), Can we Go for a flight?! Promise I won't drop you! ” You stared Blankly at him for a few minutes, Hypnotic eyes never taken out of his, This made a bead of sweat roll down Urogi's chin as you smiled softly, “ Why, Of course, Urogi. ”

hi! so u asked for unpopular opinions about marauders, so here i am, ready to deliever them
james potter was bully. he bullied not only snape but other people, he sexually assaulted snape. "oh, but that's because snape is a nazi!" yes, he is. i am not defending snape, he is an awful person. but james started bullying him, making fun of him, calling him names and stuff, when they were ELEVEN. he literally started making fun of him in the train. they haven't even talked to each other yet. he just overheard some boy in the train telling his friend that he would like to go slytherin and automatically decided to bully this boy. and that is something unforgivable and i hate that some people in this fandom try to portray snape as pure evil, because HE IS A MORALLY GRAY CHARACTER. he did a lot of awful things, he also did some good things, he also is a victim of abuse, of bullying and of sexual assault. and probably there is someone who's going to come to me and tell me that he was never sexually assaulted. well, james potter held him down, and took of his clothes against his will, including underwear, in front of a lot of people. basically he exposed snape's genitals against snape's will. he also tried to choke snape with soap bubbles, he heavily bullied him. his age is not an excuse, being 15 is not an excuse. if it was all really about snape being a nazi then that would be james's explanation for lily when she asked what his problem with snape was. if it was really about how much james hated purebloods supremacists, then he wouldn't focus on snape, but on mulciber and avery and wilkes and people like this. but instead he chose snape, because snape was an easy victim. and because of that: fuck james potter, i never really started to like him, i can only tolerate him in certain fanfiction
i couldn't care less about jegulus. i've read some awesome fanfictions, i've seen a lot of awesome art, but the ship on it's own doesn't really speak to me. it's a worse version of drarry, honestly, and i never was a big fan of drarry. i get with people like it but i'm just really tired of the fact that you cannot find anything about marauders without jegulus
this fandom has a lot of really toxic parts, especially when people talk about liking some rarepairs, there are so many people who attack them and threathen them and stuff. someone shipping james with barty is not a reason to send them death threaths.
also the fact that someone doesn't headcanon james as poc does not make them racist. someone not shipping a lesbian ship doesn't makes them a bad person and a person that hates lesbians. someone. a lot of people in this fandom just get really mad at people for no reason and it really should stop.
i don't really have any opinions on dorlene. i know that it's popular and stuff but i just don't get the hype. i prefer dorlily lilylene marylily and marylene and dormary and all other combinations between these girls, but dorlene... it just doesn't stand out to me that much.
so now it's time for all the rarepairs that i like:
peter x xenophilius
lily x marlene
james x sirius
james x peter
peter x sirius
lily x sybill
mrs zabini x rita
lily x regulus
lily x barty
lily x barty x evan
evan x barty x xenophilius
this fandom really often portrays walburga as the abuser and orion as just... well, just being there and not really caring, or sometimes people just make him a good father, and honestly? it's the 70s. walburga is a woman. orion he is a man. you really think that she is the one in control here? i'm not saying that she is innocent, because she obviously isn't, but he isn't either and it annoys me that it's always "walburga's a+ parenting" and it's always her being abusive, and her being mad, and her being an awful person, and orion, oooh, poor babygirl, he wants to protect his kids from her but she is the one controling everyone in this house because she is in a position of power as a WOMAN IN 70S. nothing against walburga being portrayed as abusive, because she was abusive, but don't make orion innocent
i would love to hear your opinion about all that i said here (but u don't have to obviously it's just a stupid ask you can just answer it with a dot, but if u have time and energy i'd love to hear ur opinions)
maybe i will come up with something else later, if it happens i'll send another ask
(quietly praying that i won't get death threaths over this)
First of all James Potter is my favourite character ever. He is my sweetheart and I kin him. So yeah, for me he is the perfect imperfection. I agree his made some mistakes, but I don’t view him the way you do. I’ve been there in high school, humiliating people that bully other innocent people or even my friends. I’m not proud of it, I’m just saying I know where he comes from. It’s not easy to stop a bully and I felt like putting them down was the only way to protect others, and I think James thought the exact same thing. Again I’m not proud and I don’t know if I’ll do it again.
On that same note. I hate Snape. I think nothing justify bullying an 11 year old. And he wanted to be a death eater. So I always hate him, in fanon and canon.
2. I loooove Jegulus, it’s my fav ship and I would only read something if it has Jegulus. lol. Total opposites. Mmm i think it’s a great love story and i never get tired of reading it. I’ve honestly never been a fan of Drarry but I don’t mind people shipping them.
3. I know! We should all stop that and just spread love and some legs, lol, jk. But seriously guys, everyone has the right to a different opinion and if you don’t like it, just look the other way .
4. This is so true, I actually hc him as Aaron T Johnson jut bc I think he is the perfect James Potter, but of course I’m not racist like at all. I even love the Reiky fancast bc he is part of skam and so bloody perfect.
I also love to mention I love Mary, Dorcas and Kingsley and all the fan art.
5. I honestly looove dorlene but i do hc lilylene bc it seems natural to me, I first saw them tw as the og bffs and I feel like girl friends are meant to fall in love or at least have crushes on each other. At least that always happens to me w mine.
8. THIS I LOVE (send fics pls)
10. This I like very much (and if anyone has fanfics pls send)
18. I mean I don’t know how to view this as a feminist. You know, I like the woman being the powerful one, but hence again, is I misogyny to blame her for everything and call her a bitch just bc she is a woman and let Orion of the hook?
I JUST FIGURE HOW TO RESPON TO THIS, IM SORRY IT TOOK ME FOREVER
AND PLEASEEEEEEE DONT SEND ANY DEATH THREADS ANYBODYS WAY!
THANKS FOR YOR QUESTIONS

oooh for the ship bingo can you do analogical? i love yhmaili sm btw <3
Absolutely, and thx for reading <3
Funnily enough, I'm pretty casual about analogical tbh. They're friends to lovers to me which is not one of the tropes I go feral over, but if I want to cry about how cute something is, I'm there. And I will cry. They just care about each other so much! They see each other as equals. It would be so easy for them to love each other. I want that for them. A bit of peace amongst the chaos.
Virgil makes Logan confront his emotions in a safe place and Logan helps Virgil calm his. They did NOT have to share those canon gentle looks and Logan did NOT have constantly be passing Virgil helpful facts relating to managing anxiety. They really did that for us. Plus their debate, but more importantly what happened after they were done??? They are too cute.
Yeah, I want what they have. It's sweet and easy and soft. Not without struggles, but they are manageable ones. I don't really have much else to say, they're just good.
Also, obligatory You Haunt Me And I Like It link. Read my fic, boy (gender neutral).

Hi! These matchups you do are really fun so I thought I’d give it a go :)
What song are you fixated on at the moment? What lyric or verse, and why?
I’m a Megan Thee Stallion fan! I love her songs, they get me so pumped. Right now I love one of her older songs Plan B. It makes me feel confident and reminds me not to take sh*t from anyone!
“Ladies, love yourself 'cause this shit could get ugly That's why it's, "Fuck n***** get money" And I don't give a fuck if that n**** leave tonight. Because, n****, that dick don't run me”
What is your Enneagram type?
I’m an ENFP :)
Do you love gargantuan Youtube video essays, and if so, which is your favorite and why?
Yes I do! I love to listen to them like a podcast while I scroll on Pinterest or draw. I enjoy watching Wendigoon. I’m a horror gal so I love urban legends and creepy stuff. My particular favorite is “The Deal With The Devil That Created Rock And Roll”
Tell me about your childhood imaginary friend.
never had one
What is your go-to way to fall asleep?
Listening to bf asmr or reading some fanfics
If you had to change your name, what would it be, and why? (In tandem, if you have changed your name, why did you pick that one?)
The funny thing about my name is that nobody calls me by my government one. It’s one of those long, slightly formal names. So when I was baby I was given a nickname. Now everyone in my life knows me by that nickname. I didn’t pick it, but i like my nickname and I feel like it fits :)
What is your favorite of Redacted’s audios, and why?
Oooh that’s a hard choice. I like so many of them. But I’d have to pick Gavin’s first confession audio. It’s so sweet and I’m a sucker for confessions.
What Redacted boy holds no appeal to you, and why? Like, not the one you hate but the one who you don’t get the hype for. (I won’t judge, I promise.)
Hmm, I think Asher. just doesn’t appeal to me. I think our personalities are too similar
Tell me about that one book/movie/tv show you know all the words to.
”The Parent Trap” with Linsey Lohan! or “Clueless”
Which Redacted boy are you platonically attracted to? Like- forget dating, which dude do you want to be your best friend?
I think Guy. He’d be a fun bestie, and he’d make me cry laughing
Do you have a go-to thing you ramble about when you’re tired, and if so, what is it? (For example, my boyfriend knows I’m ready to sleep when I start talking about space.)
Not rlly. I get more quiet when I’m sleepy.
Tell me your go-to gas station and drink combo.
Combo pretzel and cheese chips and a Coke!
Tell me about your favorite playlist at the moment.
It’s titled ‘Bad Bitch’ and it’s filled with Kim Petras, Twice, Kali Uchis, and ofc Megan Thee Stallion :)
What’s your guilty pleasure media, and why?
Cheesy rom coms and romance books. Also Studio Ghibli movies
Extra info:
I’m an extrovert
I love the sunshine x grumpy trope
I’m a fashion girlie and I must have a cute outfit at all times if I’m going out
that’s all, thank you!
Easy peasy! I think you and your match would have a lot of shared interests, but it’s the love of fashion that cinched it. There’s no better match for that than Gavin.
Like, literally, you’d like so many of the same things; horror, K-pop, Megan Thee Stallion, romance novels. The music especially is such a fun thing you two share; he knows all the choreography, maybe even all the words. (I think he’s a Girls Generation fan if I had to pick. Given his age, I think Gavin stans the classics.) You also share a book collection, the incubus often getting saucy and using them as inspiration or quoting them.
All in all, you’re a very compatible couple, an extroverted pair who looks good together. I can see y’all going on really cute mall dates, thrifting cute clothes, buying new books, going to see the new horror movie of the week, and Gavin laughing at it to everyone in the theater’s surprise. (Because of his demonic, supernatural nature, I like to hc Gavin as enjoying horror but not being scared by it in the least.) (Also, I really love that both of you go by nicknames instead of your birth names; it’s meant to be.)
Song:
I'm talkin' all around clock/ I'm talkin' hope nobody knocks/ I'm talkin' opposite of soft/ I'm talkin' wild, wild thoughts/ You gotta keep up with me/ I got some young energy/ I caught the L-O-V-E/ How do you do this to me?
Once you get Gavin properly acclimated to pop culture and music, he becomes the king of it, always his finger on the pulse. I love to think of him as a pop idol, Sabrina Carpenter fan- especially of this fun, flirty song and how it’s performed. He loves to play this while doing chores around the house, coming up with his own naughty refrains like how Sabrina does during live performances.
Runner-ups:
Given your love of fashion, I had to put Milo somewhere in your big three. Anton, in contrast, is a runner-up because of how adorably you’d contrast. I love a good introvert/extrovert pairing, and I really get a giggle out of imagining Anton flustered at hearing WAP for the first time.
Read this post and send me an ask if you’d like a match-up of your own! 💌

Hi! Do you have recommendation with love square a/b/o verse? Particularly with Alpha!Adrien?
Oooh yeah those can be fun! I haven't seen much of them lately, but I've liked a lot of the ML Omegaverse fics I've read! All of these will be T-rated or below, btw.
---
dynamic by Anonymous
“I’m serious, my lady,” he clarifies, feigning collectedness. “Your chaton is an alpha, through and through.” “You–” She pauses, blinking. “Really?” “Yes, really,” he replies, and he catches some frustration slipping into his tone. He bites it back belatedly. Is it really so hard to believe? (More one-shots set in this AU may be added later as additional chapters.)
---
the dreams (I tried but couldn't bring to life) by @pauliestorylover
Marinette Dupain-Cheng, alias Ladybug, had a crush on Chat Noir. The only problem? Beneath her suit, Marinette was secretly a familiar, and Chat Noir…was not. (He was also a familiar, they were both just lying to each other.)
---
Tacenda by MiraculouslyHopeful
In a world where alpha/beta/omega dynamics seem to define everything, Marinette Dupain-Cheng and Adrien Agreste's lives are far from easy. Marinette is confused, Adrien is tired, and Hawkmoth does not seem to be stopping, especially not after the two heroes find out what their classifications are. They always knew their lives would change with this information, but is it for better or worse in the end?
---
Hers by bumbleb_tch
Peeking into the room, she saw Chat sprawled on her chaise and quickly announced, “I’m-really-sorry-Chaton-but-I-ran-out-of-patches-and-need-to-really-quickly-grab-some-more.” By the time she finished her word vomit she was already digging through her closet. As her hand grasped the box, a soft keening brought her attention back to the room and a fresh scent bloomed, immediately lighting her senses on fire. Thick bergamot shadowed with an expensive sandalwood, layered on top of the gentle caress of a wild rose. It was powerful, chaotic, but it’s core softer than a butterfly’s kiss, it was undeniably Chat. But worse, it was undeniably omega. Marinette pivoted on her heels oh so slowly, taking special care to breath through her mouth as she took stock of her partner. Even from across the room she could see sweat pouring down his face, his pupils blown so wide she could only make out a miniscule strip of green sclera around them. “Chat...did you-did you just present?”
---
you deserve to be loved and you deserve what you are given by @thescuttlebugg
Marinette is terrified, suddenly. She’s not like this. She’s not this kind of alpha, to get her head turned by any pretty pheromones she trips over. She’s not--she’s not disloyal, she’s not inconstant. Chat smells like moonlight, like the sudden shock of night air and the terrifying rush of leaping out into the empty dark, like deserted city sidewalks and unfamiliar corners: something midnight-metallic, something strange, something wild. Nothing like Adrien. Not a single note in common. She’s not like this. She’s not like this.
He smells-- He smells-- “Ladybug,” Chat croaks, still staring at her. He smells stray.
---
alone together by a_miiraculer, clairelutra
i don't know where you're going but do you got room for one more troubled soul? Marinette's got 99 problems, and pretty-boy omegas are about half of them. A drabble sequence. On indefinite hiatus.
---
This last one isn't actually Lovesquare, but it's one I wrote and it has Alpha!Adrien so I'm throwing it in anyway, I had fun writing it.
The Role of an Alpha by Keyseeker
When a newly presenting Omega crashes through his window, Adrien discovers what kind of Alpha he wants to be.

oooh the last two anon replies got me fired up so here's my manifesto i guess.
the universal hating on lin manuel miranda comes down to a few factors that most of the time have nothing to do with his actual mistakes:
their cringe history is reflected in him and they can't deal with it. let it be known that it is not lin who created miku binder jefferson. that was entirely a monster of our making. and somehow, his enthusiasm and willingness to interact with fan content (i remember everyone loving him for it) is worthy of punishment in relation.
he's an easy scapegoat to dump criticism on because people already feel so comfortable speaking on him. like you said, it's crazy that people will paint out lin manuel miranda, the guy who changed broadway and did so much for POC roles, to be the big baddie. he's made mistakes, and there's a lot we can discuss about hamilton's legacy, etc., but damn. where's this energy for everyone else? is it a case of "he actually tried, therefore we have material to latch onto and tear down?"
a lot of what he does is successful and in the public eye! it's crazy but i see people going "why is lin manuel miranda in everything" about projects from the 2000s, like yeahh he didn't just make hamilton and then disappear for your own convenience. if anything it's a statement about how a lot of his work, like it or not, is remembered over time. the reaction to him being in percy jackson was crazy to me because i KNOW for a fact that you did not see his dark materials or tick tick boom; at most you know him from moana and hamilton. and then complaining that he "threatened disney to be in everything they do" smh.
he's not your typical white boy of the month. this might be a loaded statement but sue me, i think it's true. POC celebrities have a limited amount of time in the sun compared to white celebrities. a white actor having multiple roles in a year is okay, and it means they're a hard worker. but when it's a POC actor, their presence is conspicuous. their presence becomes bothersome. public goodwill dries up so much faster. even pedro pascal, i feel, has been talked about with eye-rolls recently. i read a very interesting paper about this.
it's fun! the internet's chosen him as their punching bag, and there are no consequences to online hating if everyone else agrees. i bet a lot of people think they're just joking.
and all of this makes it such that if they do find out about some of his actual mistakes, it's a relief. i legitimately saw a tiktok comment section filled with bashing, and someone said "this is so hilarious but kinda mean, the guy didn't do anything" and someone said with "actually he did this this and this" and they replied "oh thank god, i don't feel bad now!" so it's not "oh let's see if this person improved" it's "phew! i have a legitimate reason to continue what i've been doing all along!"
it's crazy because i'm not even a lmm fan necessarily. i've just been in the musical community for years and noticed all of this happening surrounding his very popular work. you all will rue the day! 10 yrs later or so people are going to start making those "he deserved better" posts but i will not forgive or forget.
i don't know if you want me to respond to every single thing you wrote here, but i appreciate the message, especially when it comes from someone who's not really a fan - it only shows me that it's possible not to be in the fandom & still be respectful.
don't even get me started on miku binder jefferson, it's probably the most ridiculous thing i've ever seen in my life. also, one thing i need to point out is that NOT EVERYONE in this fandom is like that, & i think i'm a perfect example of a person who just enjoys lin's art & likes talking about it & analizing things, but not enjoying all those weird cringe things that were created by the fandom (like the one you mentioned), so like... maybe a certain part of the fandom was the problem, not the creator of the thing? i have nothing against fanfiction in general, nothing against fanarts but like... some people are ruining the thing cause it's just too much. like the famous lmm cannibal mermaid fanfiction, come on guys, be serious, what the actual fuck???
i also agree with the percy jackson thing, i remember seeing all the hate even before the episode with him dropped & honestly i couldn't stand it, the pjo fandom ruined all the fun for me & i literally had to block pjo tag lol. then the episode was out & everyone was suddenly like OH, HE WAS ACTUALLY GOOD, well guess what bitch, i've been saying this all the time, he is actually a good actor & you are just a miserable hater. this fandom is toxic as fuck. also, you think he's everywhere? i do know a lot of other celebrities who actually ARE everywhere these days & somehow no one is sick of them??? so maybe people really are just racists. also, this is literally his job lol what do you expect him to do, disappear forever?
i will not forgive or forget either. like i said before, i'm aware that he made some mistakes, it's not like he didn't apologize for some of them, also he's not perfect, but no one is. all i'm trying to say is that there are more problematic people but somehow everyone feels the need to hate on him. you picked the wrong guy, just let him be.
#i will always defend him no matter what#i literally HAD a friend who called him a disgusting piece of shit because of all the bad things he did & said he should die#& this person is a swiftie who can see no bad things in taylor's behaviour looool#i had to block the bitch#anyway#thanks for the message once again#have a nice day anon#lin manuel miranda#lmm#anon#i saved every letter you wrote me*

Oof, here we go!! Maera went there!! I couldn’t believe what I just read. I thought I was hallucinating the words.
Oooh the nerve of Aemond, I mean if I were Maera I’d ignore him too. He doesn’t get any sympathy from me. In this universe, even if he’d lain with Alys as a means to an end, and not because he felt something for her, well, we can’t deny the proof of it now can we.
I was also seething at how the people around her - Alicent and even her father fully expect her to turn a blind eye to Aemond’s indiscretion all while she is held up to an impossibly high standard of always doing her best and just accepting it, as if she should be grateful Aemond still returns to her. I know we’re supposed to be judging them based on the standards of that time but it just reminded me that even now, little has changed. Just this afternoon my parents asked when I planned on getting married as I am nearly thirty. And the worst part is how marriage is seen as the solution to everything - because as they put it, what else was I going to do with my life if I didn’t get married? It just drives me mad because it implies that all my accomplishments amount to nothing until I secure a husband, not even that, as if my entire being is worthless until I got married.
Anyway, back to the story, we finally have the confrontation scene!! I had to process my feelings on this because my knee jerk reaction is to feel insulted, how dare Alys act like that as if she was the wife? But then, when I calmed down, I realized, it could also be a projection of my possessiveness to Aemond and to an extent Ewan Mitchell. Fanfiction makes me lose myself in the character so it’s easy to feel as if I’ve been slighted, yes, I’m feeling quite meta today. But in reality, or in canon, Alys isn’t really portrayed heavily enough for us to really get a glimpse of what she was like so it’s easy to paint her as the villain, the seductress who tempted Aemond but let’s not forget- Aemond also chose to lie with Alys. I want to be better and not just lay down the blame on the other woman. For all we know, Alys is amused because she’s past all that and finds the entire thing silly because she doesn’t want to steal Aemond. She already knows his heart belongs to Maera. I feel like she’s like this -taunting because Maera is wary of her. I mean I do want to give her the benefit of the doubt. But I suppose the only way I’ll find out is if I read the next chapter.
When you said drama I didn’t expect it on a Monday hahahahaha but this powered me through the day so thank you so much!! Hope you’re doing well!
I always live for your analysis of the chapters each time I upload 🖤
Aemond is so god damn stupid but think we’ve all gotta remember this boy is about 18/19 in this fic. That is so young! And what man doesn’t make dumb decisions at that age? (I like to think most of the wars in the medieval times are due to young men spitting their dummies out and acting on impulse, only to regret it later)
With Alys, you’re right. In the canon we don’t know an awful lot about her. I’m hoping to give her a bit more depth as a character with more interactions between her and Maera. I’m not sure how some of the audience will react to that. We’re all Aemond girlies and I’m sure there will be plenty of comments like “why doesn’t Maera just stab her ffs.” (Tbf id react the same 🤣) but we can’t just go round stabbing people, can we?
Maera’s got to play the game, and what a long game it will be. She’s going to have to be sneaky, clever and downright badass if she wants to succeed in this world, especially with a war going on.
I have the bulk of the next chapter, just down to editing now. (Spoiler: there will be smut 👀)

1 - one object u would take to a deserted island?
2 - notable book you've read this year (or in general!)
3 - what would be ur perfect sandwich... like a platonic ideal of a sandwich what bread which ingredients etc...
oooh im so anon you'll. never guess who i am
Oooooo you're soo anon I have absolutely no idea who you are hehe
I have so many options here and I'm so indecisive so here's some of my favourites:
A flintlock pistol and a cutlass (so that i can pretend to be a pirate who's been marooned)
My poseable Cure Passion figurine (for moral support)
Something to write fanfic on (preferably with a keyboard bc i canNOT write by hand it will kill me)
2. If we're going for this year then Anansi Boys!!!! I wasn't expecting it to have a romance plot but honestly I don't hate it, which is rare. I haven't finished it yet bc I keep forgetting rip. If we're going for in general then probably The Night Circus. I don't particularly care for the characters or their interpersonal dramas but the background lore of the circus itself lives in my brain and eats away at my thoughts nearly constantly. OH NOW I WANNA MAKE AN ENSTARS AU BASED OFF OF IT. It would be so easy to include every character and I love AUs where I can do that-
3. Oh boy ok. I've been thinking about this for the past 12 hours and I'm struggling. I don't really like typical sandwiches, but I do like things with bread on either side? Sandwiches are such a wide range of foods that I don't wanna just denounce them altogether because there's plenty of "sandwiches" that I love. WAIT HOLD ON I'VE JUST REMEMBERED. Every Christmas my family goes to my grandparents house and my gdad makes bacon butties (bacon sandwiches) with ketchup and they're nothing special but also they're everything to me. Actually now I'm remembering chip butties. Oh my god ok ok ok final answer, my perfect sandwich would be: white bread cob, big and round but a little bit flat, lightly buttered, with freshly-cooked chip-shop chips filling it up. Best eaten when it's late autumn/early winter when it's chilly and miserable and you feel a bit shit and all you want is to be sent to carbohydrate heaven.

A younger sibling of Starscream's, out for the throne? Perfect.
I'm thinking they might try to turn Megatron's past against him? Perhaps trying to startle him into attacking—should be easy because he's just a violent groundpounder—either Starscream or the bitlets. Or, more soap opera, they get a minion to attempt to seduce him?
Also who is it Thundercracker would fall for? Starscream? Megatron? Both of them? 👀
Oooh I like that. Make the uncultured violent ex-gladiator snap and try to hurt his sparklings or the prince he's supposed to be sworn to? I like it! Though 🤔 how would we go about it? I'm kinda leaning toward maybe using Starscream's younger cousin, one Princess Clearsky, as the villainess.
If they sent someone to try and seduce Megatron, they wouldn't get very far. There's nothing and no one that could successfully impress him at this point: no one but Starscream. He'd probably immediately tell his seeker what's going on like "yeah someone is trying to get between us".
Which actually 👀 could ne pretty interesting. They decide to play along to dig up dirt on whoever is scheming against them. It's actually Thundercracker's idea: he's read enough romance novels to know that they can use this
And speaking of TC! I really like his very somft friendship with Megatron 🥺 so my vote is to have him falling in love with Starscream. After all, they're going to be spending the rest of their lives together, and I want baby boy to be happy 🥺🥺

Hey this is not meant as a criticism of your or others time travel theories, so don’t take it the wrong way, just speaking as a pleb, I do think the timeline thing tho, unless it’s explained in a way that’s super easy to understand, runs the risk of pissing off a lot of people and feeling unsatisfying simply because it’s a very confusing concept to a lot of people in general, and I know in the past a lot of “alternate reality” type “twists” (like it was just a dream, or time travel, or everything was made up in an autistic boys mind—yes that last one happened on an 80s show) have made audiences mad simply because they felt cheated and like a lot of stuff they thought mattered didnt, and for all the people online who are reading theories and scrutinizing things, there are millions more who aren’t and they should be able to follow along as well and feel satisfied (and while I am a tumblr girlie who has followed theories for years, even I didn’t clock time travel and timeline shit till you guys pointed it out here on tumblr so like, even for people in the fandom it’s easy to miss, so i imagine most GA hasn’t clocked it either ) and I’m concerned about how this theory might play out ….
I personally don’t hope it’s about timelines and such simply because of my own selfishness and no matter how i try, while the concept is interesting to me, i find it too confusing and convoluted to understand or enjoy. like i’m trying i wanna be one of the cool kids but it just… loses me completely.
i am PRAYING that if you all are right, and there are these timeline things, that the Duffers really have a succinct, and easily digestible way of revealing this to the audience that won’t take up a whole 30 min of plodding exposition that will leave the GA scratching their heads, but have it be ah OOOH WOW clever and easy to grasp twist that doesn’t leave fans feeling cheated.
I don’t care what the ending is tbh I just want them to stick it and for me to be able to understand it lol
Hey anon! This reply is gonna be shorter than I want it to be simply bc I am super sleepy rn but I just want to toss this post your way where I talked about this whole thing more in depth!
I totally see your concerns, but I actually have seen A LOT of GA folks point out the time travel/timeline stuff (just not as specific/in depth as we’ve done on tumblr), so as far as that part goes, I don’t think there’s too much to worry about. We also have to keep in mind that the duffers, while they ARE trying to write a coherent, cohesive story, are not trying to appease the GA. Many GA members also think that Byler would be “out of nowhere and too difficult to understand”. And also, I say this with Love In My Heart, but I don’t care about “well Everyone should be able to follow it and understand it”/“it would suck,” and i dont mean “i dont care” in a mean way towards you, i just mean it literally. I don’t care. Because my focus, when doing analysis, is “what is the show saying/doing?”, rather than “is the show doing it well/are they going to explain it well?”. Do i think they’re going to do it well? Yes! And I talked about that more in that post I linked. But I’m also not writing my theories around whether or not I think it would be good or bad or easy to understand- I’m writing my theories around the evidence we have & trying to figure out what they’re doing, whether they do it well or do it badly.
Like, I do disagree with “they should be able to follow along and feel satisfied” when it comes to ST & when it comes to that as an argument against timeline stuff. And the reason I disagree is because a.) they WILL be able to, just on a surface level, even if they dont fully comprehend it and b.) I don’t think a show as detailed as ST, is obligated to tone itself down. People can rewatch & figure things out like a puzzle. I don’t think all media needs to be completely, fully easily digestible for everyone. I think it’s fine to make viewers need to think about things!!! And I think that the duffers/the ST team is going to be able to find a happy medium between the more complex stuff & a simpler cohesive surface narrative, especially since the timeline stuff doesnt so much seem to be “going back and fixing things/none of mattered” as it is “the timeline stuff has been causing problems from the Very Beginning and we need to set it right/everything still happened.” I also think that a lot of it us the duffers fucking with the audience’s perception of things & that we’ve already been seeing multiple timelines the whole time, which allows them to tie things up more neatly because they dont have to blast through and show us all the timelines- we’vd already seen them.
I hope this is somewhat coherent bc like I said im half awake right now, so if any of this sounds snarky towards you, it’s not meant to be! <333 I really do think they’ll be able to pull things off in a way that’s complex enough to be interesting/leave more puzzles to solve/make people rewatch to spot things, but also still easy enough to understand that things are wrapped up effectively! And personally, if they ARE going to mess it up (which i really really doubt they will, because like i talked abt in that linked post, the timeline stuff is alllllll interconnected to the main unsolved questions/plot points in ST) there’s nothing i can do about that!!! I’m not in the writers’ room! So, I focus on what I can do- analyzing the information we have & trying to figure out what direction the show is going to take, regardless of whether that direction is good or bad. (and i think it’ll be fantastic!!)
