thinking abt how trans men, transmascs or anyone else in the queer community with a masculine identity are always targeted and made fun of by cis people or other queer people. We are always stereotyped to be the “soft he/they trans boy who likes cavetown with that one picrew as their pfp and is super cringe and awkward (with a dash of ableism towards autistic trans men/mascs)” or all the other stereotypes out there. I never see trans women/transfemmes/feminine queer people get made fun of this way because they know ppl with call them out for it. People don’t call it out with trans men/mascs or other masculine queer people because it’s ok to be transphobic towards us because we’re just big scary privileged men to them. We cannot be opressed in their eyes so it’s okay to make fun of us and stereotype us

MATCH UPS ARE BACK

THE WALKING DEAD

STATUS: CLOSED

i’m opening match ups back up for all twd characters!!!! so anyone who hasn’t gotten one can get a chance if they’d like!!! (i won’t write another for someone who’s already received one.)

so you could always go back and look at my original post (here) for this but i’m making a new one, just because i have some new stuff i’m adding.

REQUIREMENTS: for a match up i ask that you are following my blog!! also i WILL NOT be writing for anons, im sorry!!!

WHAT TO EXPECT: so i’ll be adding a bit more this time!! you will get your twd match, the usual 3-4 headcanons and a small drabble that also comes with a banner to fit the vibe, but i’ll also go a little more in depth. i’ll tell you how i think you would’ve met your match as well as a runner up and random facts about your relationship.

WHAT TO SEND: PLEASE SPECIFY WHAT GENDER MATCH UP YOURE LOOKING FOR! i do ask that you try to be super super descriptive on your personality AT LEAST, i really need stuff to work with. tell me your physical description (things like your eyes or hair, anything you want focused on in the drabble. you can send photo refs if you��re comfortable, picrews, art, wtv).

you can send your personality types or zodiac signs, your favorite things, your love language, literally anything that defines you as a person i can work with. if you give me short and undetailed descriptions, it wont be easy for me to match you with someone and it may be inaccurate and will take longer for me to write.

NOTICE!!!: i will not be writing any smut for these match ups, everything will be safe for work. i won’t write for anons because i don’t reply to asks regarding match ups, i feel weird putting people’s information out there. if you send me a reference photo, it won’t be posted as every time i write a match up, after it’s completed and posted, i delete the ask from my inbox.

go ham but not too ham cuz i’ll cry. they won’t be posted one by one i hope, instead it’ll be all written and then i’ll post them over the course of a certain amount of time, probably a week. ok i love you bye!!!

[ohbo-ohno]

Pretending (1/2)

Heck it, another one of those "I can't sleep until I post it" type of nights.

This is technically a part two to Lonely/Game, though that really just sets up the characters and their dynamic. I decided to be super self-indulgent with the full story and mix it with another of my beloved g/t tropes, "human thinks the borrower is a shrunken human". I really like the result and I hope you do too.

Bonus picrews of the characters too, because I made them and have nowhere else to share them. Left is Silver (they/them, human) and right is Maple (she/her, borrower)

Word Count: 2.5k

======

(See below the read more for the actual story, I think this intro is getting too long as-is)

Maple watched from the shadows as her house’s human prepared food, keeping an eye out for anything she could potentially borrow later. It had been a few days since she had accidentally spoken to the human, and she was more careful than usual to keep her distance. As the borrower watched Silver, she took note of some crumbs and foodstuff left on the counter, which would be perfect for borrowing later. Luckily, Silver wasn’t the tidiest human, and would often leave such messes around their apartment. Maple liked to think that she was helping in a small way by cleaning up the mess.

Silver walked out of the kitchen, bowl of food in hand, and Maple quickly made her way onto the counter to try and grab what she could. After getting her food, Maple quickly snuck her way into the living room, sitting off to the side of the couch, just out of Silver’s view. As Maple watched the show Silver had put on, she thought to herself that it was almost like they were sharing a meal… in a sense.

“Shit”, said Silver suddenly as they bent over, clearly meaning to pick something up off of the floor, probably a piece of food that they dropped. As they bent down, Maple quickly went to run away, hoping she wouldn’t be seen by the human, but wasn’t quite fast enough as she heard Silver’s voice.

“What the… fuck.”

—

No, Silver thought to themself. My eyes are playing tricks on me. They tried to rationalize, there was no way that they just saw some kind of tiny woman running under the couch. It was… probably a mouse or something. A weird looking mouse, for sure.

… No, it wasn’t a mouse.

They got on the floor, and started to kneel down to peek under the couch.

“Uh… hello?” Silver said, a bewildered tone in their voice as they looked for the tiny woman they swore that they saw.

“I’m not, like, mad or anything? Are you okay? I definitely saw you…” Silver said, trying to stay calm.

Their heart almost skipped a beat as they saw a tiny head poke out from behind the leg of the couch. She was real, they thought to themself.

—

Maple knew she was screwed. Silver had definitely seen her. As the human called out, Maple knew she had two options. She could either try to run, or reveal herself.

Taking a deep breath, she peeked around the couch leg, and froze as she saw Silver’s eye staring right at her.

“H-hi, Silver…” she squeaked out. Of all the ways she had imagined revealing herself to the human, this was not one of them, her hiding under the couch and Silver laying on the floor peering at her with a look of confusion on their face.

She saw Silver furrow their brow as they spoke again. “Uh… hi. Have we, uh, met before?”

Maple was confused and went to say something before she was interrupted by Silver.

“Wait, nevermind, that doesn’t matter. Are you okay? How did you, uh, get so small?”

Now Maple was really confused.

“... What?” the borrower cautiously asked.

“You know, how did you get so, uh… like, I don’t know, dude, you’re a few inches tall, how does that even happen?”

Maple suddenly had a moment of realization. Silver thinks I’m a human. If they thought she was a human… would it really be breaking borrower code to reveal herself?

“I… uh… d-don’t… remember…” stuttered out the borrower.

“Huh… so your memories got wiped or something? Weird. Um… okay, I guess that may as well happen. Uh… okay, think, Silver…” they said as they squeezed their eyes tightly, before opening them again. “Do you remember anything? Your name?”

“... Maple.” replied Maple.

“Okay, hi Maple. That’s a lovely name.” Silver said.

“Thank you.” Maple replied, before an awkward silence grew between them.

“Uh… it’d be easier to think if I wasn’t lying on the floor.” they said.

“R-right, sorry, I guess I should, um… come out…” Maple said, as she fully revealed herself, and began walking towards Silver, though every part of her said this was wrong.

Silver sat up on the floor as Maple walked out from under the couch. She felt beyond nervous, this was by far the closest she had ever come to Silver before as she stood at their knees.

“I, uh, I like your little dress.” said Silver awkwardly.

“... Thanks, I made it myself,” Maple replied awkwardly.

“Sorry, this is… new to me, obviously. It’s not every day you find a shrunken person under your couch. What were you doing there, anyways?” asked Silver.

“Um… I was, um…” stuttered Maple, unsure what to answer before Silver seemed to jump to their own conclusion.

“Wait, you were probably trying to hide from me, that makes sense. Gods, I must look like Godzilla to you or something,” mused the human. Maple wasn’t entirely sure of the reference, but nodded along anyways.

“Y-yeah, it’s… a little scary, honestly.”

“Well it’s okay, I’d never hurt you. You’re a person, after all.” said Silver, trying to be reassuring.

Right… a person… thought Maple, as she began to grow worried. What if Silver figured out the truth? They were smart, she couldn’t fool them forever…

“I have, like, so many questions right now,” Silver said, interrupting Maple’s panic.

“Um… y-yeah, I’m sure…”

“Okay, first: How did you get here? Like, in-my-apartment here.” Silver asked. Maple knew she was going to have to lie, she couldn’t reveal that she lived here. She tried to think of as much human culture as she could, and what she knew of Silver’s life, to try and come up with something.

“I, uh… snuck into your bag… after work one day…” Maple stuttered out.

“Okay… that makes sense. So something at work caused you to shrink?” Silver asked.

“I… I guess so, yeah…”

“You guess so?” Silver said, eyebrow raised.

“I mean… I wasn’t doing anything, um, that would cause it, you know? Just… boop, small,” lied Maple, hoping Silver would drop the subject. However, the human had other concerns.

“Shit, that makes this way more complicated… Okay, um… dangit, I can’t exactly look up ‘how to unshrink somebody’... and I have to imagine I can’t just bring you to a doctor or something” muttered Silver. The human motioned to Maple as they began to stand up. “You stay there, I’ll get my phone.”

Maple felt her body start to shake as the human stood up to their full height. It was anxiety-inducing enough being near them while they were kneeled over, let alone at their full height, with Maple barely being taller than their socked foot.

Silver walked a few steps away and grabbed their phone, before sitting down on the couch and starting to search for… something. It was a few moments before the human seemed to realize something, and lowered their hand to the floor.

“Shit, sorry, I should have, um, asked if you wanted off of the floor. Probably doesn’t help with how tall I look.”

Maple anxiously stepped forward, lightly touching Silver’s hand for the first time. It was… warm and soft, and smelled like Silver. Maple never thought this would happen, that she'd willingly be about to climb into Silver’s hand.

“Just, uh, climb on, I guess. It’s okay.” Silver said, confusing Maple’s awe for fear.

Maple slowly climbed into Silver’s hand, and was extremely slowly lifted and placed on the far end of the couch.

“There, that’s probably more comfortable than the floor at least. Now, just… give me a few minutes and I’ll see if I can find anything on the internet, okay?”

Maple could only nod as she sat on the couch.

—

Silver wasn’t even sure what to begin to search to help Maple. “Spontaneous shrinking”? Completely at a loss, they tried anyway, and to no surprise found zero helpful results, just a lot of fictional stories.

“Hm…” Silver murmured as they turned to Maple. “Do you remember anything that might help?”

“N-not really… sorry. Maybe we should just, um, not worry about it?” Maple replied.

Silver knew that Maple was just trying to not be demanding, but they had to try to help the tiny woman. “No, no, I want to help, Maple. If you don’t remember anything, that’s fine, I’ll see what I can find.”

They noticed that Maple seemed anxious, but summed it up to the tiny person just being nervous about the situation at hand.

“Hey, don’t worry. We’ll figure this out,” Silver said, trying to reassure Maple, but it didn’t seem to sway the tiny person.

As Silver resumed their search, it didn’t take long before they came across something they had never heard of before. Borrowers, they called themselves. Tiny people who sometimes lived among humans, but kept themselves secret. Of course, their existence seems to have been leaked online, but for some reason  it wasn’t a big thing? Only some scientific articles studying their biology, a half-polished Wikipedia article, and a few shoddy videos and images. Silver had definitely never heard of them before, and they spent probably too much time on the internet. Weird…

“Hey, I didn’t find anything really, but have you ever heard of borrowers?” They idly asked Maple. If Silver wasn’t looking at their phone, they would have seen Maple go completely pale as the question was asked.

“N-n-no, I c-can’t say I have…” Maple stuttered out.

“Weird… they’re the closest thing I can find, but apparently they’re like, born that small? It’s so weird though, they’re the same size as you and everything.”

“W-wait…” Maple said, “What does the phone say about borrowers?”

Silver was so caught up in their research that they hardly noticed the odd wording of Maple’s question.

“Hm… it says that they’re closely related to humans biologically, and that they live all around the world but are said to have originated from England. They keep away from humans, and every one that’s been studied refuses to speak to humans, so we don’t know much about their culture or anything. But that’s weirdly all there is, aside from some anatomy diagrams and a Wikipedia article full of citation needed links. I dunno, I think people would be more interested in this? I mean, a whole species of tiny people? That’s so cool! I wish I could meet one… I mean, I guess you’re close…”

—

They refused to speak to humans… Maple thought. She had broken the biggest rule of all by talking with Silver, and now she was caught in a lie, pretending to be a human, and she had somehow still managed to clue Silver in to the existence of borrowers.

“I-I’m not… I’m not though, I’m… like I said, I’m a human.”

“I know, I know. Sorry, that was maybe rude of me. Not that there’d be anything wrong with being a borrower, I guess.”

“R-right…” Maple weakly responded. Should she say something? No, she couldn’t. Silver had to keep thinking she was a human. Who knows what the human would do if they found out she was actually a borrower?

Silence fell over them as Silver continued searching for answers to the problem that couldn’t be solved. After far too long, they finally hung their head in defeat.

“Ugh, I’m not finding anything… maybe I should try bringing you to a doctor or something…”

“No!” Maple cried, drawing Silver’s attention.

“S-sorry, I just… I’m, um… afraid, you know…” Maple said.

“Got it, I won’t do anything you aren’t comfortable with. Besides, I know how our company’s insurance is, I sure don’t want to go to a doctor unless I'm literally in the process of dying,” Silver said with a chuckle. Maple tried to laugh along as well, to keep up the act she had created.

“Yeah, exactly,” the borrower said, trying to act casual.

“Well, until we figure something out, you’re welcome to stay here with me, obviously. I can try to find something to make, like, a little bed for you or something, if you want.” Silver said kindly.

Maple’s heart dropped a little bit. Right… She can’t exactly return home while Silver thinks she’s a human…

“O-of course, thank you. I’d appreciate that a lot,” she responded, trying to sound as appreciative as possible.

“Well, for now, I could uh, put something on TV? This is normally when I game, but maybe that’d be a little rude,” Silver said.

Maple’s eyes lit up a bit at that. Even if it was under false pretense, could this finally be her chance to actually hang out with Silver?

“No, no, I’m fine with watching whatever, if you want to play a game or something that’s fine with me!”

Silver smiled a little bit at that. “Okay, if you’re okay with it.” The human switched the TV to the game system, and went to boot up the game. “Have you heard of this one?”

“Yeah, I, uh, I don’t play many games myself, but I, um… watch people play sometimes.” Maple responded.

“Oh, like on the internet? That’s cool. No spoilers though, I’m only at the third dungeon.” Silver said.

“I haven’t seen much past the, um, the second one,” Maple answered. It wasn’t a lie, the borrower had run away during the second dungeon and hadn’t watched Silver since.

As Silver began to play, Maple would ask questions that she hadn’t gotten the answer to.

“Who’s that guy?”

“Wait, you don’t know? He’s usually the hero of the games,” Silver replied.

“Oh…” Maple responded nervously. Was that something all humans know?

“Oh, I get it, you’re probably used to the newer ones where he doesn’t wear the classic outfit. That always bothered me…” Silver said, to Maple’s relief.

“Yeah, that. Only the newer ones, ha… I’m kind of a fake fan…”

“Hey, don’t worry, we don’t gatekeep around here.” Silver smiled at Maple, whose heart fluttered at the gesture.

Silver resumed the adventure, with Maple occasionally asking more questions, or just overall conversing. To Maple, it was one of the highlights of the young borrower’s life, finally hanging out with Silver like… like a friend.

Eventually, the sun set, and even later still, Silver finally decided to turn off the game with a yawn.

“That was fun, but I’ve got work in the morning. Well, we do? I guess you can’t really go into work…” Silver mused.

“Uh, nope, I’m kind of… sick, I guess?” Maple responded.

“Makes sense. Well, um… I’m gonna get ready for bed, which I guess raises the question of where you should sleep…” Silver said. Maple secretly hoped that she would be invited into Silver’s bedroom, but her little dream was dashed when Silver seemed to shrug and simply ask, “Is the couch comfortable for you?”

“Y-yeah, this works…”

“Okay, awesome! Um, do you need anything, like uh, water or anything?”

“N-nope, I should be good.” Maple responded. She had a plan, once Silver went to sleep she would just go back to her house to stock up on everything she’d need for the next… however long this act would take.

“All right, perfect. I’ll, uh, cut the light then, and I’ll see you in the morning? I’ll try not to wake you up.” Silver said, but Maple knew that wouldn’t be a problem. She was usually awake a few hours before Silver woke up, borrowers tended to be up and active at dawn and dusk.

“Okay, good night, Silver.”

“Good night, Maple.”

Part 2!

[peachblossomstudy]

a guide to starting a studyblr — 

by @peachblossomstudy​

i’ve been in the studyblr community for many years now (just over four i think!), so i thought i’d make a post with all my advice for anyone lurking in the community thinking of getting more involved. of course i’m not the definitive authority on any of this, please take everything here as suggestions rather than rules!

what is a studyblr?

the term ‘studyblr’ has two meanings: (1) the tumblr community focused on studying, learning and productivity; (2) a blog about your experience as a student/with learning etc. having a studyblr is a fun way to share a love of learning with other, keep yourself accountable in school and find inspiration for notes or planner spreads.

the basics

so you’ve decided to take the plunge. where to start?

url - it’s a good idea to make your url study-themed in some way, whether it includes a variation of the word ‘study’ or references your favourite subject or something else to do with studying or productivity

theme - there are pretty much no rules about themes in the studyblr community! blogs of all themes and aesthetics can be studyblrs, though it may be easier to indicate what your blog is about with a study-related icon. alternatively, it’s quite popular to have picrews for icons to show a bit of personality.

i have made many different icon and header packs, which will be linked on my desktop theme soon!

the picrew i made my icon with is here

introduction post - start your blog with a little introduction about who you are (name or nickname, age if you feel comfortable, pronouns), what you study, any other fun information and maybe even tag some of your studyblr inspirations

content - people post lots of different types of content, including and not limited to:

pictures of their notes, planner or workspace - these are generally the most popular

advice posts made up of graphics

masterlists/masterposts based on different themes (e.g. language learning masterposts)

text-based advice posts (like this one!)

reblogs! the best way to show your love to everyone else in the community

growing your blog

now you’ve posted some content, and it’s time to explore the community a bit more. it goes without saying that growing on tumblr is more of an organic thing, and if you’re coming to studyblr purely for notes then you may want to rethink your reasons for joining the community. nevertheless, validation feels great, and so does making new friends!

try to post regularly - an active blog will always help new people find you, and regular posts will help keep followers engaged

post original content - posting something unique to you will give people a reason to follow you specifically, rather than the same reblogged posts being circulated

that being said, reblogging from others (bonus points for leaving nice messages in the tags!) is a great way to introduce them to your blog. if someone sees your url in their notes often, they’ll be more likely to have a look at your blog

don’t be afraid to interact - send someone a message, send them an ask, reply to their posts, add compliments in their tags! generally everyone in the studyblr community is super friendly and open to messaging, asks and making friends, so get stuck right in

my ask box is always open to new friends! <3

use tags - most studyblr have a tag that they track, and will usually go through and like/reblog any posts that use this tag. find out what tags your favourite blogs track and use them on your posts to help them get seen

i track (very sporadically at the moment) the tag #heypeachblossom

other

now you’ve established yourself, there are lots of other things to do on studyblr! here are some ideas:

get involved in challenges - there are many different challenges to participate in. popular ones include the 100 days of productivity challenge, and the lovely @/myhoneststudyblr has many previous studying challenges you could complete. if you’re into reading, sabrina @/bulletnotestudies and the studyblr w/ knives discord server have lots of great themed reading challenges

participate in events - over the year some blogs will run events such as secret santas or secret admirers, which are really cute and fun to do. this february i ran the @studyblrsecretvalentines​, and i’m hoping to do it again in 2023.

play ask games and tag games with your friends - this is a great way to get to know more people and have some fun!

resources

finally, here are a few useful tips/resources for the more practical side of running a studyblr

your queue is your best friend - you can run up a huge queue of reblogs to keep your blog active during busy study times

i personally use the mobile app snapseed to edit my photos for original content, and find it works really well

canva.com is a great online, free editing program - i use it to make all the graphics for my post header and advice posts

my header and icon packs (that i’ve tagged correctly) are here! i have made other packs, though they’ll have to be found through my archive, sorry

momentum is a popular desktop extension in the studyblr community

lots of people also use forest (or flora, which is free) for cute focus timers

this has turned into a bit of a monster post, but i hope if you’ve read this far that you found it useful! feel free to tag me in your introduction posts, and see you around studyblr <3

[circular-bircular]

Man, this is something that’s always confused me.

“People who put alter introductions or lists in their bio with alter ages and stuff are harming themselves! Don’t give out information about yourself online, people will use it to hurt you!”

I’m genuinely curious. How?

I get trigger lists — that one is obvious how people could use it to hurt you. But things I’ve seen claimed as things folks will use against me:

Picrew images

Alter ages

Our names

My bodily age (can kinda get this one but I’m a big boy, really, and I’m fine with folks knowing it)

Like. I super don’t get how someone knowing my part’s name is dangerous for me.

[pumpking64]

Apparently I mainly want to not feel or look tired which means no eye bags please (hey twinsies Tri!) and also wearing bolder clothes and having warmer spring pls? Also, one more earring.

I mainly got beef with my posture but picrew doesn’t show that sooo :))

could this be a tag game 👀

use this picrew to make you regularly vs what you want to look like (can be minor changes or completely different)

npt- @alexis-angelsss @thehalfbloodedwitch @blackthunder137 @buckleysblossoms @imabee-oralizard @andvys @natti-ice + anyone who wants to <33

The Breaking of Kelsey Karlov

What's your favorite thing about it? Which character speaks to you the most?

Hi! Sorry about the long time on getting back to this one :)

It’s time to talk about this WIP that I never talk about despite being like four edits away from done the thing. I do love the story, I’m just very shy about it so I don’t talk much about it

CW for mentions of (temporary) death of a child

My favourite thing about it is absolutely the characters. They all feel so alive and so real and so much like normal people despite the fact that the world they live in is absolutely deranged and their story is more so. It’s a super character driven story and every character has something to contribute and I love them all so dearly

It’s hard to pick a favourite but I think I’m going to go with Ellory because she’s got major Character Of All Time energy. Ellory Vuliev is a twenty-eight-year-old banker with more money than she knows what to do with and a chip on her shoulder larger than the city she lives in. She’s also dead. Ellory died tragically at the age of eight by being kicked in the head by a centaur and was promptly turned into a ghost. So despite being twenty-eight and having the thoughts and maturity of a twenty-eight-year-old, she still looks eight. She’s very angry about how much she gets treated like a child who can’t take care of herself because of this - if she gets one more client asking her where her mother is, she’s going to cuss them out

Ellory is… not an especially good person, to be honest, except when she kind of is. She’s snarky and crass and mean and angry, but she’s passionately loyal to her friends and single-mindlessly devoted to anything she puts her mind to. When her friend she’s fighting with is in trouble, she’ll go to the ends of the world to find out what happened and keep them safe. She’ll snark and snap and get temperamental about the littlest things but she’ll have your back no matter what. She’s generous if you’re nice to her but will ruin you if you piss her off, and when the main villain targets her best friend, she’s out for blood

Here she is, the snarky asshole herself. This isn’t a perfect picrew of her (she looks younger and she has monolids) but it was the best I have

Thank you for the ask! I’m always excited to get asks from you :)

Kayden Nguyen

Psychic!Yandere (x Psychic!Reader)

He is specifically paired with a Psychic!Reader in all situations.

Vietnamese Name: Bảo Nguyễn

American Name: Kayden Nguyen

Appearance: 5’9”, Long black hair that’s usually tied up, golden eyes, tan, wears thin breathable layers, medium build. (Picrew Image at bottom)

Setting: US suburbs

Post about his and reader’s Psychic Powers

Kayden is a Vietnamese-American who gained his psychic powers at birth. He was really fussy as a child, but that was because he was constantly overstimulated, having been born in the city. As he grew up his body adjusted and managed to suppress his mind reading so that it’d be limited to a certain area. Like he can expand and shrink the range of his mind reading. 

His parents thought he was super creepy as a child, and hushed him numerous times to stop being annoying and to stop pretending he knew stuff. He quickly learned that if he stopped sharing what he was feeling that his parents treated him better. Because he wasn’t spouting all this freaky predicting stuff that maybe it was just a phase and that they do have a normal child that was just a bit weird in the early stages. He got really good at pretending he was okay. 

Kayden chose his name from a name book when he got to 2nd grade, because a lot of the kids had a hard time pronouncing his name correctly. When he got mad at them they would then pester him on how to actually pronounce it. He got sick and tired of it so he just chose a new name. In the present day he likes both his names equally. So don’t come asking me about preferences using his “real” name or any of that nonsense. They’re both his names. Only introduces himself as Kayden nowadays unless he’s talking to family or family friends who are also Vietnamese. If he finds out you’re also Viet/know Viet then he’ll tell you his Viet name freely. Otherwise you’d have to ask if his parents named him Kayden and then he’d tell you his birth name. 

When he hit middle school his family moved to the suburbs, finally having the money to do so. This soothed him significantly. Their new home was decently large, having plenty of space between them and the neighbors. On days where it was just him at home he’d actually have some mental peace and quiet without the strain of having to keep his psychic aura bubble in check.

He went to college online, and developed a really strong online life. It’s how he interacts with people in a way that feels normal. The same way that everyone else does. 

He’s not a total shut-in however, having to go places to run errands and whatnot, but he keeps that to the lower end of the spectrum. He’s grateful to live in an age where so many things are contactless, but knows that he needs sunlight or he’ll go crazy in a different way. 

Likes drinking beer a lot. Not in a party animal way but because it eases his mind and lets him relax. Likes drinking with his dad at the dinner table.

One day when he’s out and about, probably getting a physical copy of a game on the release day, he meets you. He can shrink the area of his mind reading range a decent amount, but he can still get overwhelmed in these small crowded stores where everyone is touching shoulders. 

As he mentally braces himself he walks in when he exhales. And nothing. There’s nothing. 

Not nothing, he can still hear and see and everything else, but he can’t hear anyone’s chittering thoughts. How?

He zeroes in on you. He knows it’s because of you because all the scattered energy is sinking into you like a void. What? 

Then you make eye contact with him and he can’t breathe. He’s staring at you like you’re some anomaly and that’s because to him you are. 

You’re staring at him to size him up. And you soon realize he’s like you. Only much more inexperienced. 

The difference between you two is that you had honed your skills so much more, becoming capable of doing other things with your psychic abilities other than just mind-reading. You give him an understanding smile. 

He is startled and at first takes mild offense, because who the fuck do you think you are?

Then you’re next in line and get your game. 

You leave ahead of him and he’s torn for a moment. Game? You? The choice is obvious. He chases after you. He can get another copy another time. You? He doesn’t know if he can find you again. 

Luckily for him you were waiting outside the store. It wasn’t hard to figure out that he’d want to talk to you. You greet him casually and he looks at you like his world view just got flipped. 

You give him the time he needs to pick his jaw off the floor before waving for him to follow you to a park bench across the street from the game store. He follows promptly, eyes darting around as he’s unsure of what’s happening. 

The mental silence is still actively happening and he has no idea how to react to it other than apprehension. When he finally sits down next to you, you introduce yourself. He does the same, introducing himself as Kayden.

You sit in silence waiting for him to speak. He stammers before taking a deep breath. 

"How? How do you do that?" He finally musters out. 

"The thing where you neutralize everyone's thoughts," he clarifies. 

You give him the gist of it. How you practiced because everything was so noisy. And how you learned to do other things. 

You're already aware that no one is paying attention to you two, so you hold your hand out and the pebbles from the ground fly to your palm. They're big enough that he can't blame the wind, though you can tell he's far from a skeptic. He’s looking at you in awe, like you just showed him how to clear a level by glitching through the walls. Literally unlocked an entire world to him. 

 Basically you explain to him that you were like him in the past, but decided to branch out to see what you were really capable of. Because I said psychic, not just mind-reading. 

You exchange numbers and plan to meet occasionally. In the times between, for the first time in his life, he actually tries to do all the cool psychic stuff he’s heard of. Despite being a clear example of the supernatural he figured that it was a case of grandeur and illusion. Like where you look at something and are like “haha thats cool but not how it works irl.” 

But it does. It works bud. He just never tried. Part of it was fear of being further ostracized by his family. He loves and cares about them, but he remembers how awful they made him feel when he was open about his powers as a kid. 

It becomes this mentorship where you’re guiding him how to better control his powers and he quickly becomes obsessed. You’re the only two that you two know that are like this. You weren’t as recluse as he was and you still note how he’s the first one you’ve met that shares these powers. 

He’s eternally grateful that you’ve shown him a better way to live and he idolizes you. He doesn’t dread going out anymore and he loves going out with you. Even simple errands have him scrambling for a decent outfit. 

You only negate the thoughts of people within a certain vicinity, kind of like a low battery function. One time when the two of you were together you left his side, which is fine, but he wasn’t on top of his shit so a flurry of thoughts rushed in, but one notable one was some dude eyeing you big time. He didn’t know where that hot flash of rage came from. Kayden zeroes in on this dude’s thoughts and basically screams at him with his own mind, not realizing what he’s doing, and it works. Huh? The dude’s thoughts do a 180 and silence themselves. Not in the way where he can’t hear them, or that they’re getting negated by you. It turns into white noise and he can breathe again. 

He didn’t realize he was holding his breath. 

You come back with your food orders and he flashes you a smile. 

You look at him funny, and he shivers as he feels the calming aura of you reaching into his mind, asking him if he’s alright. He loved it when you did this. It was so intimate, you were literally in his head, and it was something he knew no one else could do. 

He responds with an “I am now.” Because it’s true. It was just a momentary distraction. But you’re here now and everything is alright. It’s always alright when he’s with you. 

In a chill setting he mostly uses his new psychic powers to keep people away from you via tripping, mind redirection, etc. 

If things get bad, then he’s not above exerting himself to put a person into a coma. Literally can’t be traced back to him, and he doesn’t have any blood on his hands. 

Would never hurt you intentionally. Would never even try to control you (ever again). Because there was one time when he was getting riled up, frustrated that he couldn’t get this technique down when it was supposedly simpler than all the other stuff he’s learned, and when you tried to calm him he lashed out big time, mentally and physically yelling at you to shut up and fuck off. 

You heard him. You felt it. You felt that wave of that hint of psychic control that you were familiar with, but had promised you wouldn’t do to him. So when he did it to you in this burst of rage you were stunned. He immediately knew exactly what he did and lost the wind in his sails. Even though he hadn’t promised the same thing back at the time, since he wasn’t able to do that back then, he knew that it was an unspoken agreement. 

Regret and shame smack him fast and hard as he crumples to the ground, groveling in apology. 

You, after many deep breaths, manage to be the bigger person. Because it was clear that he had never done this before so he didn’t know how it felt to use that particular power. So you heave one final sigh and look at him, telling him to get up and that it’s fine. But you make sure he knows that this isn’t some three-strike system and that if he ever tries that shit again you will let him know what hell feels like. 

He thanks you and apologizes again, going to a nearby convenience store and getting you some snacks. And it works. You two eat your snacks and the tension is diffused. 

Kayden throws a mental block up against you as he wonders why your anger was kinda hot in hindsight. Hates it when you’re mad at him though. So he can only hope to be around when someone else pisses you off.

Playlist!

The plot: Onthyes just started working for an influential merchant as a guard in his manor. The merchant has a genasi pet (Ventis) who Onthyes is immediately drawn to for some reason. Onthyes notices that, although Ventis is basically treated like an object, he seems happy with his position as the merchant’s slave. Believing Ventis to be a victim despite the contented act he puts on, Onthyes makes it his personal mission to save him (and oops! also falls in love with him).

Ventis:

Onthyes:

Warnings: While this is a whump story I don’t see it getting super bloody but there is going to be non-con. No super explicit non-con is planned at the moment (this is subject to change but I will warn ahead of time). There will be explicit consensual sex. Also there will be needles, drug use, forced addiction, and drug withdrawals. *Safe for emetophobes!*

More detailed warnings containing spoilers below for people who don’t like surprises!

If you’re interested in being on the taglist for this story let me know!

Warnings (Spoilers!): Ventis is forced to use a sedative-like drug via injection every day to keep him compliant and docile. The merchant uses this addiction to control him and sometimes withholds the drugs as punishment, causing Ventis to go through withdrawals. The merchant uses Ventis for sex (again, I don’t currently plan on writing graphic non-con scenes) and sometimes allows others to do the same. Ventis pretends to tolerate this treatment but he has no control over what happens to him. I do plan on this having a happy ending.

[audioroleplayconfessions]

as someone who has been a fan & avid listener of Pebbles ASMR ever since the early days of his channel (around 2020-ish), it’s so disheartening to see him lose a couple of subscribers just because he’s (most likely unknowingly) using AI art on his thumbnails :( like it is disappointing for me too but I don’t really see anyone pointing it out and informing him about it, but even then im pretty sure even if they do it’d still be hard for him to look for non-AI art nowadays since he uses Pinterest for them and that app is like… infested by AI art atp 💀 well at least i’m just glad that he still uses picrew for most of his non one-shot characters but yeah, he’s a super talented guy and is one of the more hidden gems in the audio rp community in my opinion, like his series storylines are so well-made and he goes all out on conveying his characters’ emotions (the mad king, tsundere bully, superhero, & supervillain series all had me in shambles😭) and that’s why im a super huge fan of him but man 😔pls can any other pebble fan help me inform him about this or something
