#but the end of the day it's really fun

[sleeplesscenarios]

those people who only write/translate/create content if there's a big audience that will kiss their ass and stroke their ego, but will lose motivation and drop projects when there's no big reaction or don't make content for smaller fandoms is seriously so weird to me. like you guys aren't just taken by some higher powers to make the most obscure of contents purely for self-indulgent purposes without even considering the pros and cons or if people care or don't care about it???

In regards to the monster cast’s orientations. I politely ask, how the heck did Price and Simon’s desires to be tops work in that temporary relationship of theirs? Did they rock paper scissors to see whose turn it is? I am very genuinely curious how they decide. Also find it very cute that Rudy likes to boss Alejandro in the bedroom.

well, in the monster!au specifically, Price and Ghost got together shortly after the incident with Roba. It left them both permanently scarred and they kinda latched onto each other in the direct aftermath. Simon, who had lived his entire life as a human until then and was now grappling with being an unstable smoke monster, was feeling glaringly vulnerable. Price, who was now down one wing and was feeling that impact no matter how much he tried to work past it, recognised Simon as "hoard" and in turn was overcompensating for that.

In summary, Simon needed someone in that moment to take charge and Price needed a way to reassert his dragon-hood to himself. Their relationship was toxic and codependent before the brass recognised what was happening and sent Price out into the field before they wanted to, just so they could separate the two. Their feelings for each other levelled out with time, and they sometimes revive the fling for old time's sake, but it's a lot more understated now.

in regards to non-monster-aus? i fully believe that Price is just Simon's exception. That's his captain, and he's an attack dog. There's a certain dynamic that comes with this (and i eat that shit up every time)

ANOTHER SKETCH DUMP! Featuring more of me playing with lineless art. Batman reborn era trio (dick, damian and steph) I miss you...when will you return from war. Also featuring Steph designs bc I've seen ppl dissatisfied w/ her current look, some good mom Talia, and Jason Todd poetry club. Duke is confused not that Jason would start a poetry club but that he'd have such mid poetry opinions. (ID in Alt)

the mourn watch background gives you such a GIFT in having other characters notice and call out on-screen that rook code switches like a motherfucker. the whiplash of hearing my snarky 'heeey I'm just a little guy! :>' funnyman rook speak the heightened ritualized phrases of the mourn watch with perfect seriousness and gravity completely naturally and/or break into an academic tone that can keep up with emmrich at the drop of a hat never stops giving me such endless delight. truly their real mind is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside some hideous mourn watch casual wear

>> Part Two | Part Three <<

And they say chivalry is dead uwu

With the cold fronts going on I keep thinking of cute little things like this. I think Loki, despite being a frost giant, probably still feels the chill now and then - one adapts to your surroundings afterall.

What better way to flirt with your crush when it's cold out!

You know what makes me soooo excited for the next phase of Fadel and Style's relationship? It's that they will finally slot into the CORRECT relationship dynamics because this whole time, it's been flipped.

From the beginning, something felt off, and I think it's because Style's true desire is to be pursued. We are shown this pretty much in Style's introduction when he blatantly puts his body on display with the Crop Top Stretch. Style wants to be approached, wants to be propositioned, wants to be desired. Also, remember how he initially flirts with Fadel when his only motivation was his own attraction? He pinned the Heart Burger badge onto his chest to create an opportunity for Fadel to put his hands on Style's body.

Of course Fadel wasn't pursuing Style; was in fact, actively trying to get away (for reasons OTHER than a lack of physical attraction to Style), so it is the plot that has to drive our lovebirds together using Kant's request and partly Style's own desire to get some revenge.

But throughout their interactions, we constantly see glimpses of Style's desire to be pursued: every single time Fadel even shows a HINT of wanting Style, he immediately falls pliant, like he can't wait to let Fadel take the reins. And nothing shows this more clearly than the absolutely blissed out look on Style's face in Ep 4 when he thinks Fadel has finally admitted that he wants Style.

(Fucking hell, just look at how dazed and almost euphoric Style looks here? It's like Style has been starving for the barest hint that Fadel truly wants him.)

Which is also why we've gotten so many fake outs. Because although Fadel IS attracted to Style (Ep 2 made that...abundantly clear), he isn’t remotely ready to pursue anyone. Not only is Fadel nursing a broken heart, barely beating, he also has very justified suspicions about Style’s connection to Kant and Style's unnatural persistence.

So it's Style that has to pursue - he dodges Fadel's footsteps, and bullies his way into Fadel's life; but in between the frustration and annoyance, Fadel's walls begin to crack. And I think it's SO COOL that the first significant evidence we have of Fadel's walls crumbling is because Style puts his body on display for Fadel. Because Fadel responded to something that was naturally part of the way Style operates before he even met Fadel. And there are other, more compelling reasons why I think Fadel begins to fall for Style, but that's not really the point I'm trying to make here.

When Fadel said "If I like you, I'll do the pursuing", it wasn't just to get Style to back off. Because now that Fadel has finally chosen to explore something real with Style, we are seeing Fadel's words in action. I know some people have said Fadel's switch to flirting so blatantly with Style in Ep 4's gym scene came out of left field, but I think it may well be confirmation that this was always the dynamic they were meant to be in. Fadel likes pursuing and Style likes being pursued. They fit, they match, they're perfectly compatible.

(Fadel looks almost faintly amused by how "flustered" Style is. Because he doesn't know that Style is actually afraid of him - why would he, when Style has evidenced zero fear so far? So this comes across like Style is getting shy in response to Fadel's unexpected and more overt approach. And possibly this is Fadel starting to remember how much he enjoys the chasing.)

Unfortunately, Kant's revelation is going to screw allll of this up. But, we are finally going to see glimpses of how they work when they're aligned correctly in their dynamics! And while it will take a journey (and oh, it will be gloriously painful, won't it?), our boys are finally on the road to something lasting and I am sooo glad we get to come along for the ride. <3
