Can't write unless I feel obligated to for the sake of somebody else :(

Scrolling through your blog and manifesting regular asks in 2024 to get me out of this hole 😭

NO BUT. OK. I AM GRABBING U LIKE THIS

I HEAR SO MANY PPL SAY SIMILAR STUFF. AND HOW LIKE OHHHH I DONT RLY WRITE THIS IS NOT REAL WRITING.... POST THAT HALF BAKED SHIT. WRITE INCOMPREHENSIBLE PROMPTS. RAMBLE. SCREAM INTO THE VOID. thats half of what i do.

THERES TREMENDOUS VALUE IN IT!!!!!!!!!!!! if u guys posted all this stuff the community would be all the better for it bc theyre SO quality. i love u guys. if any of u ask senders ever make a blog to post these prompts or smth, or decide to start posting them on ur already existing blogs, whatever. just send me ur url bc i wanna follow. its such good stuff.

[librarycards]

hi sorry i saw u rb posts on veganism & i was wondering how you reconcile that stuff re: ED's (for context i am vegetarian -which ik isn't the same thing- for eco/ethical reasons but also have loved ones with eating problems that i never never never want to shame for eating ever)

this is a good question! I've addressed it a few times before on here, but in brief: veganism is a philosophy and ethical orientation around all forms of consumption and relationality. food is, for a number of reasons (many of which also contribute to the prevalence of eds - fixations on false ideas of 'perfectable' heath; desirability politics; etc) a hypervisible component of vegan life. this is particularly true given that there is a massive imbalance in the ways that we collectively gather. a focus on food-themed events marginalizes a wide variety of disabled people and/or people with religious/ethical food restrictions, and in this case, being vegan and living with an ed are actually pretty similar re: exclusion and frustration.

given the above, more and more people these days have been delineating between "vegan" and "plant based". to be vegan, here, is to have a certain set of political commitments - toward multispecies + climate justice, via critical analysis and collective organizing regarding what we are, literally and figuratively, expected to swallow under settler colonial capitalist hegemony. to be, or eat, a plant-based diet, is no more than what it says on the tin.

with that important distinction aside, i actually want to focus on one part of your ask: the idea that to be vegan is in and of itself an act of shaming. i want you (and not specifically you, because this is something a lot of people should ask themselves) to think about why you find veganism itself to shame (verb) nonvegans. generally, there are a few reasons for this: perhaps it's just not having met a lot of vegans and only hearing internet scaremongering. perhaps it's a discomfort not unlike other unwillingness to look at the horrible shit that makes "our" lifestyles possible. it is hard to understand our own complicity in hegemonic violence, and, vegan or not, it is impossible to extricate ourselves fully from it. but we do need to look. veganism, at its best, provides a critical lens for looking, and a set of practices to minimize, as best we can, our buy-in.

truthfully, i think that people who feel shamed by the existence of a vegan in their midst should figure that problem out on their own. this includes psychiatrically disabled people, incl. disorderly eaters. this does not give any of us license to harangue vulnerable people for their eating habits, but it also doesn't morally obligate us to change our lifestyles for their comfort!

as a vegetarian, you probably don't have a whole lot of occasion to talk about your vegetarianism (outside, say, drs offices or food-based gatherings). people are often surprised when they learn that i'm vegan, because they assume all vegans must be "preachy" (i have yet to meet a vegan over the age of eighteen irl who is like this. i've met a lot of Big Mad protein bros, though, as well as MYRIAD preachy med professionals and laypeople who freak tf out that i'm a principled vegan anorexic). at the end of the day, you need to be able to live a life you can tolerate, one that best facilitates you to impart good in the world + in your relationships. one that allows you to understand the gravity and importance of your own survival, on your terms. if vegetarianism or veganism do that for you, those who love you will support it, even if it takes a while.

so, yeah. i'm not sure if you wanted explanation, advice, or both, so I gave both. sorry for the long answer (even though i promised brevity...) but i believe very strongly in bodily autonomy - this informs my veganism - anarchism - broad politic, and my answer to this ask. so you got an essay!!

[iamred-iamyellow]

ok this is very random (as im not sure how much of an ls2 defender u r)

BUT

every new thing that James bitchass stanky dummy shitty Vowles says abt the Logan situation just pisses me off more. makes me even wonder how logan dealt w everything for as long as he did.

Swear if Logan wasnt backed by Duracell and all the other US companies that bring in sm bank, Vowles would have dropped him even without meeting Franco...

Logan might have underperformed but his car isnt good to begin with, strategy was practically a DIY youtube video every fucking race weekend and not to mention that out of what 10-12 races his teammate has only managed to score 6 points...(no saying Albon is bad at all just goes to show that even a decent driver cant do shit in that fucking half charged golf cart 😒)

As a CS55 girlie im praying for the best for Carlos and that the team figures itself out over the new year break bc the way things r going i wouldnt be fucking suprised if Carlos opted to race for another team or just become a reserve driver after one year w bitchass Williams.

Truly a shame that a driver with such potential (LS2) and an excellent teammate and great driver with consistency (CS55) have ever had to deal with James stanky Vowles ( even tho Vowles is a D1 national level Sainz glazer 😭😭)

UGHHHHH i just know next year is gonna b...interesting to say the least.

Praying for Franco too 🥺💯 I've really come to like him so far after Monza and think he has great things in store and can rlly prove himself too 😞🩷

How it feels being BOTH a LS2 and CS55 gal btw;

as an american i think im obligated by law to be a ls2 defender 🫡🦅🇺🇸

“strategy was practically a DIY youtube video every fucking race” TRUTH!!! 

i will forever be a defender of our four williams babies alex carlos franco and logan because they were dealt some fuckass cards 

i just cannot believe that logan didn’t have enough time to develop in f2 and williams didn’t even TRY to give him more opportunities to train during his f1 seasons. they literally tossed him in a car and said GO they set him up to fail and then got mad that he didn’t exceed their expectations 

don’t even get me STARTED on the comments james made about mick i am PERSONALLY offended omg 

i’m really gonna miss franco at the end of the season but i hope he gets more opportunities from what he’s proven he can do in f1

and speaking of carlos his journey is just one that ends up being really sad for me. he jumps from team to team and proves himself EVERY TIME but he has the worst luck when it comes to it. he was teammates with max first and therefore the second fiddle because christian was set on max being his everything. then he moved to renault which was uhm renault. then mclaren where he could’ve technically been seen as first driver or equals with Lando but Lando to Mclaren is Max to RB. He got a win at mclaren and just brought out the absolute best vibes for the team. Then he moved to ferrari but it was too late bc again Charles to Ferrari is Max to Red Bull. He always ends up second to a teams golden boy and as much as i love all those drivers it really sucks that Carlos does so much and will never truly get the recognition he deserves.

could you possibly do a scenario for either Jaemin or Jeno where their s/o scratches their back after a long day and they really appreciate it?

a / n :: omg hi my love !! thank u for this one. sorry it took a while to get back to u ! i think this is suuuch a cute idea so thanks a ton for sending it in ! i decided to go w jeno on this one because he's been on my mind lately. but let me know if u want something else for jaemin or have suggestions for anything else ! also if u found this from tags , a like & a rb is always super appreciated !! <33

jeno’s exhausted and you know it. he’s been doing his best to hide it - giving you the warmest smile when he’d come in from work , diligently listening to your entire detailed recollection of your day , and even offering to cook for the two of you without being asked. but when he doesn’t think you’re looking , you catch his fatigue slipping out - a little yawn every few seconds, rubbing sore spots on his neck , and walking around your shared apartment with a certain sort of tiredness you understood well.

and yet , even now , he sits on the couch , waiting on you to watch a movie with you as he’d promised hours ago , before he’d been wiped out by the long hours of work. you don’t intend on making him sit through the movie anyways , but his dedication to his word was enough to make your heart warm.

so wordlessly , you slip behind his comfy position on the couch , wedging yourself between your boyfriend and the soft furniture. jeno’s lazily curious , only muttering a small “ hmm ? ” as your hands trail his back. but the second he feels your nails gently digging into his skin , he’s quick to let out a hum of satisfaction , as the tension nearly immediately leaves his shoulders. 

“ mm , baby - what’s this ? free massage ? you don’t have to - ”

“ no , no , i insist ! ” teasingly , you hit him softly on the back , already shutting him down playfully as the two of you laugh in unison. “ please , let me ! you look so tired. ”

you can tell he’s even too exhausted to protest , so within a few seconds he seems to oblige and lean into your touch. carefully , you dig your fingers into his skin , trailing down before slowly making their way up again. you’re sure to notice where he seems to have the most tension , and in between scratches you sneak in little massages. he seems grateful for it , given the little groans he lets out , as if to praise for a job well done. 

“ wow … this is nice. and not because i’m tired or anything - i’m just always ready for some affection from my baby. ” you can’t help but chuckle at him , recognizing his denial as a clumsy attempt to make you aware he’s willing to stay up and watch the movie with you. his kindness earns your most gentle touch , fingernails absentmindedly spelling out his name across the indents of his back. 

everytime he verbalizes his happiness with your touch you can’t help but smile. you know you can’t do much that sleep won’t for him , but you hope that maybe a couple of minutes of care from you will make the worries of his day just a bit lighter. 

“ long day ? you know , you can tell me if something’s bugging you, ” you ask quietly , after a while.

“ i know , y / n. i’ve been okay , it’s just that my hours are longer than usual , that’s all. but honestly ? i’m just happy to be home with you. ” you know he’s probably not being completely truthful , downplaying just how tired he is as to not worry you. but , not wanting to push too much , you lean forward , poking your head around to give a gentle kiss to his cheek. 

“ okay, jeno , whatever you say - just … don’t overwork yourself , okay ? ” as you talk , jeno goes to scratch a spot under his spine , but before he can , your fingers have already beat him to it. putting his hand over yours , he rubs circles over your knuckles before eventually moving his body to face you. when your eyes lock , he meets you with a sleepy grin , eyes barely managing to stay open but trying their best to keep themselves trained on you.

“ thank you , baby. ”

“ for what ? ” you ask genuinely , eyebrows raised. truthfully , you weren’t out for any sort of praise - in fact , you saw this as repayment for all his acts of kindness he’d done for you over the course of the day.

“ just - for everything. for being you ? ” the words are admittedly a little cheesy - enough to cause both of you to giggle at them. “ i don’t know ! i just - you make me feel so comfortable , and i’m really grateful for it , baby. ” he takes the moment to intertwine his hands with yours - and truthfully , they’re rarely anywhere else - and gives a firm squeeze to them. as if he can’t help himself , he suddenly leans in to peck your cheek , looking you over carefully as if you were going to fly away at any moment.

“ everything you do makes me safe , and make me feel at home. thank you for caring enough to help me unwind. ” you can’t help but feel both shy and flattered under his sudden gratitude , and don’t know what more to do than to smile at his compliments. that is , until a sudden light comes to his eyes. 

“ wait babe , i completely forgot - the movie ! let’s put it on, ” he says suddenly , springing up to grab the remote from the nearby coffee table.

“ oh no , jeno , let’s just go to bed ! you already mentioned being slee - ” but before you can say anymore , you feel two strong arms grip your waist with ease. suddenly , you’re flying down to the couch , but jeno’s careful to make sure his body lands the full impact of the fall before you can. the two of you break out into a fit of laughter , and while you pretend to struggle under his grip you see him wrap a throw blanket over you two’s cuddling bodies.

“ no way ! the love of my life gave me the best massage of my life and thinks i’ll just let them go to bed !? no way ! turn the volume up and get cozy. you're stuck with me - it’s movie night ! ”

forever, always..? ♥ s.hj

summary: hyeju is the girl you met on vacation, and over the 2 weeks, you two have gotten so close. so close that it hurts to say bye. why did you get connected so fast?

warnings: fem reader, lowk angst, , hickeys!!!!!!!! not proofread, lmk if i miss any!!

notes: first loona work on this acc 🥹 they were the first group i stanned so like. let’s give her some justice!! idk if anyone who follows likes loona so i’m not expecting this to do well, but rb/comment if u liked it if u want!! i love seeing yalls thoughts~~

collecting shells on the beach for the last time as you told eachother drama from your lives was the last thing each of you wanted. hyeju was just so charming to you, you couldn’t stop talking to her. and you were so comforting to hyeju, she just found home within you, and in 15 hours, your new found best friend would be gone, across the world, only left to think about and text. oh how you’d miss her hand holding yours as she dragged you everywhere with her, or the way she hugged you before you each went to your family’s beach houses.. you’d miss it. and this was definitely the highlight of your summer.

you quickly get snapped out of your thoughts by hyejus arm linking with yours, nudging you slightly. “yn, you’re sunburnt, here i have some aloe vera at my house, lemme help you!!” she whines, but you oblige as you and the girl trot through the sand and up the wooden ramp that leads to her family’s beach house.

once you both kick the sand off your feet, she leads you inside and sits you on the counter, digging through her beach bag as you watch her, giggling at how much she’s rushing. when she finds the green bottle, she pumps a little of the cold gel and swipes it gently on your cheeks, chuckling at how you flinch at the cold to hot contact. “yn, i can’t have you being all sunburnt and uncomfy in the airrrrr~!” she drags, moving to put some gel on your shoulders as her gentle hands rub it in, tongue slightly poking from her triangle lips in concentration. “you’re so sweet to me, hyejuuuuu!” you say, leaning your head back as you take in the house you’ve spent a few nights at, hands gripping the counter as hyeju finshes up. “i try!! .. but yn, do you ever believe in soulmates?” she says quietly as she washes the aloe off her hands, looking up at you on the counter.

well? yes! this whole trip you had practically ranted every night to your friends over text that this girl was totally your soulmate!! she was so sweet and you connected so fast. there was no way she wasn’t.

“uhhhh, kinda! why? you have someone back home you’re waiting on? do you want advice?” you ask, awkwardly laughing, if so, she probably only thought of you as friends, you didn’t even know if she liked girls like that. “um, no— i- don’t judge me for this but like.. i think we’re soulmates. like there’s no way we aren’t. we’ve gotten so close over a few days and i just think so much of you. i like you..???!! i think?? i don’t know, it feels like i’ve known you for a few months. you don’t even have to like me back. it’s just we only have a few more hours together and i just wanted to tell you.” hyejus dries her hands off and avoids eye contact as you drum your fingers on the countertop. how does someone respond to that. ‘i like you too but we can’t really date if we live so far out!!!’ like hello?

“me too. um, yeah i don’t know what we’re going to do about it though, you live on the other side of the wor—“ she cuts you off, pulling you into a hug with a smile, shaking her head as she ruffles your salty hair. “we can do something about it now? give you enough kisses till i can see you again.” she says, snickering a little as her thumb runs over your knuckles. “sure!” you say, laughing as she pulls you off the counter and onto the couch sitting you down next to her, she looks at you for a bit before doing anything, though. she’s really just admiring your features, you’re so pretty to her?? like she just loves you. she starts peppering light pecks all over your cheeks, moving to the tip of your nose before moving to your forehead, hands twirling through your hair. you laugh a little, it was cute, kind of ticklish, until hyeju moves down to your jaw, peppering kisses under it as her hands wrap around your upper arms, nibbling ever so slightly at the skin, making you gasp. “hyeju….!!!” you laugh, your finger poking at her shoulder. “sorry, sorryyyy, i’m just gonna miss you so much.” she says with a small pout, moving to pick up your hand, peppering kisses along your knuckles and up your index finger before just intertwining her hand with yours, thumb running along the protruding bones of your hand.

“you’re such a pretty girl, you know that, yn?” she says, not even giving you time to respond before she softly plants her lips on yours, it all felt so natural. like you hadn’t just met two saturdays ago.. maybe you were soulmates? there was no way this wasn’t fate with how quickly you got acquainted.

she pulls away, pecking the tip of your nose before moving to your ear, whispering. “can i leave you with something that’ll have you remember this the whole flight back? and a little while after that, too?” you can practically feel the charming smile on her face that always made your stomach get butterflies, you nod, face turning pink at the situation. hyeju moving her head back to your jaw, placing small and light kisses along it, nibbling like before, then moving down to your collarbone, leaving a blooming purple mark. chuckling as she pulls away. “didn’t want your family piecing together what we did when we were supposed to go buy souvenirs..” she says, placing a small peck on the hickey before leaving another, and another… you wouldn’t forget this for a while.

soon after your little moment, you both left her beach house to go to a small beach shop a few blocks over, giggling as you pick up the silly little trinkets and holding shirts up to you. “should i get this?” “yes yn, it’s soooo cute!!!!” more laughter following soon after. you both buy the stuff you wanted, and you stand outside the store as the dim lighting of the neon sign reflects on both of your faces. “i had fun tonight. i’m really gonna miss you, ughhhhh.” she says, plastic bag hanging from her wrist as she rests her forehead on your shoulder. “me toooooo, we should really plan another visit—“ you get cut off by your phone buzzing, your cousin texting you that you were about to leave for the airport. pulling hyeju into a tight hug, like you weren’t about to see her ever again— oh wait. you weren’t. tears prick at the corner of your eyes as you hide in her shoulder, her hand stroking your hair. “i’ll miss you so much hyeju. you won’t believe it. i’ll text you, okay? i love you, even if we don’t meet again, forever and always.” you say, pulling away from the hug, pecking her lips as you walk back to the beach house your family was staying in.

the drive to the airport was the worst. texting hyeju helped a little, but you couldn’t help but have a bittersweet feeling as you looked at all of the silly photos you took together. “ynnnnn, you’re really gonna miss the girl you were friends with?” your cousin asks, eyes looking over at your phone. oh, if only she knew.. or if she saw those hickeys, i guess. “ummmm, kinda! we got really close over a small time. so a little!!” you say, forcing a laugh to seem cheery. this was anything but.

when you got through security, you walk to your gate, holding the food your cousin made you get before you see— hyeju??? that means she either has a layover here, or she lives somewhat close by to you. no way she didn’t do that one purpose—

“yn? nice to see you again, fix your shirt, i can still see the hick—“ she starts, “shhhh!!! what are you doing here???” you say, fixing your shirt, you really didn’t want your family seeing that.. “um… going home! did you forget it was also my last day here too?” she says chuckling a little, putting her arm around your waist. “let’s hang out a little more, i think we have some unfinished business to do~” she says, leaving you to shove the food into your cousins hands, yes! you definitely have some time to kill before the flight, and hyeju has the perfect thing planned.

this is so corny… may make a part two if people ask~~ anyways rb/comment please i will usually respond 😙

[voidimp]

maybe i need to become the kind of guy that has a reblog blog. a separate blog for reblogging stuff. bc i use this one so much as like a little diary that i think part of the reason i hardly reblog anything here is bc it would be hard to find my own posts... i tend to only rb things here if i have some commentary to add in the tags. it feels weird to rb something & not talk abt it in the tags? but like sometimes i just do not have the energy for that. or like. theres only so many times i can tag variations of "oh i love this" or "this looks so cool" before it starts to feel weird & repetitive & not genuine anymore (which i think is partly an issue with me not liking to use words to express feelings but thats. ill deal w that later maybe) but it just feels weird to leave them blank when its surrounded by a bunch of posts where i am talking in the tags. so i think. a separate blog that is more low-effort thats just like. a reblog and run type thing. if i enjoy it it gets reblogged (for the most part anyway). maybe ill talk in the tags a little bit on some posts but i dont want it to feel like as much of an obligation lmao (even tho its not. but it is. u understand)

[boyslit]

just as an fyi rb bait isn't like asking u to reblog it, it's a tag i stick on there so people who struggle with distress from feeling compelled or obligated to reblogging sth can filter them out 👍

ONe last RB to have your lovely concluding thoughts on my page :) You're thoughts are so insightful and your delivery is really respectful.

Ten is so terrible. That's why I love him so much. Totally agree about it not being anyone's obligation to fix ten, or anyone. Actually that's kind of why I wrote that long post about Donna's side of the relationship, because often I find that the female character's perspective in relationships is disregarded, so whenever I'm trying to flex my English lit obsession with regards to shipping I make an effort to examine what the female character gets from the relationship (in a 'is this healthy' way as well as how her narrative could be enhanced by the pairing.)

Part of what makes them so compatible imo is that a lot of the time that she’s being/doing what he needs is because it’s what she needs. She searches him out because she wants the excitement and adventure of life on the TARDIS, not because she’s looking for him because he needs her. She expresses concern that he’s still on his own, but I felt like the way she brought it up implied that it wasn’t the reason she was looking for him. She had her own motives, because the adventure was what she decided SHE wanted (ugh the queen). In Pompeii, she doesnt ask him to save someone because it’s what he needs. It’s because she needs it, and it turns out he needed it too. (Take courtesy of my mom lol love u mom)  I see people talking about how she is the Doctor’s equal, but it’s not brought out enough that he is her equal as well. Donna is so smart, talkative, creative, and driven, and he absolutely embraces that. She’s loud, rude, and brash and he appreciates it. I always got the impression that people around her treat her like she’s too much, but with him that’s just being on the same wavelength lol. They are wonderful friends, with so many common goals, and a lot of healthy compromise. They're also totally not perfect and that's another thing I love about them. They feel real to me, because of their bumps and bruises and stupidities and toxicities. Love them to bits.

I will admit it's fun to hate a character or ship sometimes, but not to make people feel bad. I try to tag my critical or anti stuff appropriately so that I can enjoy a good whinge, while making it hopefully easy for people who like that character/ship to avoid.

ALSO SORRY FOR THIS MONSTER POST

Hey random sorry but I love your account

THANK U SO MUCH!!!! I was looking at the tags u left on my Death and The Queen essay the other day and I was like !💖!

mad respect for the nine/rose content btw, they really were phenomenal. I try to be the change I want to see (read: shamelessly stanning tendonna) but I adored the relationship between rose and nine.

Hey Emma, here's something I wanted to share.

I am was planning on writing few fics on both Sobbe and ELU but lost confidence, been thinking what if people don't appreciate the crappy writing. What should I do now? 😐🤦😭

hey there! i'm sorry you feel disheartened about your work!! i've always been of the opinion that if you're making things with other people's satisfaction and validation in mind ONLY then they'll hardly ever get done, and when they do, you won't be happy with the reception either way. i totally understand that that's a major motivating factor and sometimes there IS a lack of appreciation (i've felt both, don't get me wrong at all here), but writing especially, i think you just have to treat the experience like practice?? write what YOU want to go back and read, ya know? befriend a couple people to help you and hype you up when you need motivation to keep going. as cheesy as it sounds, i think you're going to have to want to write more than you're scared of lack of interest, and maybe you don't want to and that's okay too!!!! if it makes you feel unhappy and underappreciated, you shouldnt do it!!! if writing is something you love, then all i can encourage is practice, and i know for sobbe at least, people will be grateful bc we're in a sobbe DROUGHT RN. anyway, there is just no feasible way i can promise you the feedback you want but maybe reframe how you're looking at the writing process in general or get a small hype squad or person to help you out... because sometimes we all need that too!! hope you're having a good one and this helped ❣️❣️❣️

♡ hitched breath

♡ 𝐩𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬: itto, childe, zhongli, diluc, xiao, kaeya, scaramouche, albedo x gn!reader

♡ 𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬: fluff and a tad suggestive. not explicit. no mentions of sex. sfw.

♡ 𝐚/𝐧: how they make you flustered. posting this before ebg starts ahh | like/rb if you liked this please! consider giving me a follow if you liked it as well ^u^

ITTO snakes his arm around your waist, pulling you closer – your breath hitching. not at all. nope, zilch, nada. okay, maybe just the slightest bit. you can feel his stubble prickling your skin, sending the gentlest tickles and tingles through your body. he loves you, and he wants to show his love to you in the best way possible.

CHILDE dances with you in your living room, dipping you and kissing you on the lips as he pulls you back up. your breath hitches at the proximity and the warmth of his skin against yours, the sweet euphoria coursing through your veins. you love it, you want more of it, and he's more than happy to indulge you.

ZHONGLI holds you close to him. pfft, that's nothing, right? just an obligation of your relationship? wrong. the usually stoic-faced man breaks out into a soft smile, burying his head into the crook of your neck and sending the softest tingles down your spine. it's a small action, but sweet nonetheless.

DILUC runs his hands through your hair in bed, brushing it with the gentlest touch. the soft, sweet smile on his face is enough to make you feel so safe, so protected – he's your knight in shining armour. he leans in to kiss your cheek, drawing back to look at your smile. he really loves you very much.

XIAO allows you to run your fingers over his scars. this intimate act wordlessly strengthens your bond, the painful memories of his past revealed to you. you see the faded battle scars, the ones that may have physically faded but are permanently ingrained and think to yourself that you were special enough to see them.

KAEYA holds your hand when the two of you are cuddling on the couch, curled up with popcorn and your favourite movie. he leans in to press a kiss to your cheek, then to each one of the freckles he knows you're insecure about. he names them each after a star, forming the most beautiful constellations he had ever seen.

SCARAMOUCHE allows you to lie on his lap, sleepily humming as he runs his fingers through your hair. he grimaces at the thought of such an intimate act, but decides that he loves you too much to turn away now. if it was anyone he would do it with, it would have to be you and only you, honestly.

ALBEDO makes you model for him. you're his pretty darling, aren't you? he croons. each time he moves your body to position, you can't lie; your breath hitches and you feel giddy and lightheaded. he's more than happy to make you feel that rush of adrenaline over and over again if that is what you wish for.

ah. ah. AH. please leave a like and reblog if you liked this, and consider giving me a follow! ^u^
