I want to date a soft quiet guy…

A guy who is so unsuspecting in his daily life. Literally just the sweetest person. Kind and forgiving. Full of positive vibes and tender touches. In the beginning I’d love how soft he would be during little intimate moments. Feeling so confident in how gentle he would be, only for him to completely shock me the first time we actually have sex.

His surprisingly powerful body pinning me down too quick to react, his gentle hands turning rough and groping me all over, his hot tongue melting my skin as vulgar twisted words drip from his usually honey sweet lips. To see his dark hidden desires cloak his usually light smiley face. Watching his mask slip off and his dominance radiating through me. Controlling my body and mind in ways I never thought he could. To be consumed by his overwhelming lust and fucked within an inch of my life.

…I want to be ruined by a wolf in sheep’s clothing

Woollen caps were standard wear in Tudor England, so it's unsurprising that three examples were found on the wreck of the Mary Rose, all knitted in stocking stitch in 2mm twin ply wool, with a silk lining.

Looking after wool that's spent 437 years on the seabed is relatively simple; it's washed in deionised water, cleaned with a soft brush while underwater then air dried between cotton towels and blotting paper.

Rowena got her art degree and she has her own place at Leif's Art Gallery 🥹💖 where she sells her paintings. He even gave her one of the offices so she could set up her art studio. Both spend most of their time together there

This has always been one of my favourite Mahidevran scenes because despite of its casualness [and a kind of formal cordiality all throughout; I love me some tender Mahi!], it (retroactively) tells a whole, crucial story about Mahidevran's relationship with beauty entirely through how she deals with Aybige's objections and concerns.

Mahidevran has always cherished beauty and how one looks (as seen by her constantly taking care of her appearance) — it's important how you come off in such a place as the harem that has these specific, drawn-out demands one should adhere to, get used to or outright adopt, so of course Aybige's 'style' strikes her as odd, as something that has to be cleared up and "corrected", a view she shares with others like Hafsa too. But while she still would let Aybige's clothing slide for Nigar's wedding in E44 because she couldn't sway her to try a dress on, now that she'll be "the daughter-in-law of the Ottoman dynasty", engaged and then wed to Mahi's own son, it all simply can't go on like this. Aybige has to be swayed; she has to be at her best, most appropriate shape, she has to set an example and Mahidevran will be the one to make sure of it. That's why she calls Aybige only after she's prepared the concubines that'll take her measurements for the dresses as well as the ones who'll serve her - she is well aware of her resistance and immediately makes the first step to circumvent it. That's why she gets a little more stern ("Aybige Hatun. I don't want any objection.") and imposing (standing up to assert authority before saying the aforementioned quote) when Aybige still resists. But it's the doubt Aybige expresses in her own beauty that makes Mahidevran soften up the most. Because it turns out she too knows well what it means to tie your beauty to your self-worth.

Beauty is how Mahidevran won Süleiman over. Each time he praises her in their Manisa flashbacks it's in relation to her beauty: "The beautiful who makes me lose my mind. This beauty, this glance... you made me fall in love."; "My Mahidevran. My pretty-faced Sultana." (E55); "You. [as an answer to Mahidevran's question of who's more beautiful out of her and the emerald ring]" (E01). There's also Süleiman's assertion in E02 (the transition between Manisa and Topkapi in SS and Mahi's relationship reaching its completion) that the ring has to be "flawless and worthy of Mahidevran" and given their other conversation about the ring that we've seen, this may also be about her beauty especially. It's only natural that Mahidevran has assigned value to her beauty, perhaps the first thing she ever got notable for in this harem, and it's in front of someone else, in front of the sultan most of all, that she has to look beautiful. Beauty is an ideal of/for Süleiman that she follows and aspires to (hence it's rather poetic that at the end of the show she's left without even a trace of it... and she doesn't care), a vital, almost indispensable part of their relationship. And she isn't sure whether she can fully live up to it as there are moments where she does want her beauty to be affirmed: from asking Gülşah does she find her beautiful in E41 to that exact question to SS regarding the ring in E01 (is this another reason why losing the ring, the one thing Mahidevran measured her beauty against and is also supposedly indicative of her beauty that seems so important as well as the integrity of her place in SS's heart, hurt this much?). So when she sees Aybige have that exact same worry (while it's usually a defense she uses when people make her wear stuff she doesn't like, I think that there are some sincere feelings there), of course what she does is to assure, just like Aybige had reassured Mahidevran's beauty in the past also (E44: "I wouldn't be as beautiful as you no matter what I wear"; "You're beautiful"). The deeper, more familiar that appears to lie underneath the "You're a very beautiful girl", given the warmth with which she says it and looks at her throughout (but there's also a close yet characteristic of a sultana hand gesture!), along with Mahidevran genuinely thinking that Aybige is beautiful and since she's beautiful, she has to use it. She has to fascinate Mustafa with her beauty and her 'femininity' (E53) because that's how it worked for Mahidevran herself. It's only a matter of a gentle push, of a reaffirmation that Mahidevran will too very much appreciate in her place. She won't let Aybige dwell in these doubts; she'll see her beauty and her worth and she'll bring them forth.

But since beauty for Mahidevran is already that ingrained, it also seems to be a vital, almost indispensable part of her as well, which allows it to go beyond Süleiman, beyond taking care of yourself simply to "dazzle" someone else. Beauty also underlines identity, individuality (that also can't help but include where someone stands in the harem). Mahidevran has used clothing, new fabrics, furniture several times to leave her mark on the harem, to show who she is. She keeps taking care of herself even after she leaves Topkapi. She does it because she wants to, because she likes it, because it remains within her and means a lot to her, so why not show it? So she considers Aybige's beauty, her "dazzling" Mustafa through these ways a part of her identity as well, one she has to embrace. Nothing else would do.

🌀 please!

Wip asks !!!

Ty for the ask!!! Funnily enough, I have one prepared for this answer already cause I wrote down a summary for myself the other day. I jokingly talked about crossdressing in my boy king au, bcs one of the main events one could go to at that time period was masquerades. And then I ended up sketching a lot of it, and then boom! Fic idea here:

[gudakko]

AT - Discovery Forest Buddies

Told ya I’ll be back with another art trade for @rafacaz4lisam2k4

Although not bad background when doing with the trees and clouds in the sky, the focus was these characters I’d worked up.

He wanted this of having Sammir, Miya, Brown, and the rest of “Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!” cast joining on their forest trip. Looks nice they’re having; especially for Brown where he wanted to feed his species.

While we’re ain’t at Autumn/Fall just yet, but why not the wait for anything? 🤷

Hope he’ll enjoy it, but again apologies for keeping him waiting.

today I learned (from reading my SSI award letter no less) that I clinically am out here seeing without comprehending. My visual processing is so absolutely garbage it made it to the front page of "why lav is disabled." No wonder I can't play baseball, I have can't fucking read disease I guess even though I'm literate. Why did no one tell me this?? I even read my reports kdjfhgkfdjgh god damn psychiatric reporting laws

[autisticburnham]

What is going on with the Strange New Worlds costume department? I keep seeing gifsets that are indistinguishable from any regular TV show. Where is my balls to walls Star Trek fashion that I love?

[waywardsalt]

quick sloppy post-ph damibeck thing point ive been thinking abt and want to share

at some point i want them to go on a sort of date and check out the marketplace and stores on an island thay’re checking out and while they’re separate from the other half of the crew find a clothing shop and decide to experiment with styles they arent used to trying, damien tries a lot of masculine clothing he doesnt usually bother with since he typically prioritizes comfort and practicality over looks while linebeck doesnt usually try anything new bc he really really likes what he has going on normally but out of curiosity and to satisfy an old aspiration decides to pick out and try on a dress and hes really nervous abt it at first but damien is encouraging and supportive and linebeck gets more used to it and less self conscious abt it and how it might not suit him and ends up having a good time trying on a few different dresses and showing them to damien, idk playing with the fabric and flapping it a bit and just enjoying trying out this whole now thing of clothes and finding that he feels just as good as he does with his normal stuff and even tho hes not confident enough to go out in a dress he n damien stick around for a bit and while they leave without buying anything linebeck keeps it in mind and idk man ive been thinking abt linebeck trying on dresses and having a really good time with it

INT. WALK-IN CLOSET - DAY

Lisa and Mike browse through Lisa's wardrobe, picking out clothes that reflect Mike's feminine identity. They share tender moments of laughter and vulnerability as Lisa guides him through the process.

INT. BEDROOM - DAY

Mike stands in front of a mirror, transformed and wearing a feminine outfit. He looks uncertain yet hopeful.

LISA

(standing beside him)

You look beautiful, Mike. Remember, this is just the beginning of your journey, and we'll take it one step at a time.

MIKE

(teary-eyed, grateful)

Thank you, Lisa. I couldn't ask for a more supportive partner.
