did this as a quick scribble at like 1 AM last night and...immediately lost all motivation to ever clean it up. ( ᐛ ) but I had to draw my son being the fanciest little flower boy who ever threw petals down an aisle. oh my god.

[glitzbot]

it was an absolute JOY to illustrate this stolitz wedding kiss for TrebleRose89's fic What Happens In Vegas as part of the Helluva Bang event!

please give it a read to see how the rest of this perfectly imperfect wedding goes, you won't regret it!

and shout out to Berriedtreasur3 for designing the majority of the human disguises for this!

Thinking about marriage/women's rights on Vulcan Some may think that T'Pring not being allowed to divorce Spock was because he was going through the pon farr but if she were allowed to divorce him at all she probably would have done that a long time ago, confirmed by T'Pol when she's speaking with Koss, who isn't suffering from the pon farr. She says that he can choose another mate (without invoking a fight it seems: note the difference between a 'mate' and a 'challenger') and after he makes it clear that nothing she says will change his mind about marrying her, she finally threatens to declare a kal-if-fee. It's clear that Vulcan women cannot divorce/refuse to marry a man they've been betrothed to under any circumstances if A) He himself doesn't consent to ending their marriage or B) She doesn't have someone else waiting in the wings to be given to in his stead. Though, if the challenger she selects fails to win the fight, she'll have to marry her betrothed anyway unless (again) he decides he doesn't want her after the challenge. That seems like an incredibly unfair system, heavily biased towards men. SNW is an alternate universe in many obvious respects but most egregiously in that T'Pring has a lot of non-canonical agency over her relationship with Spock. It's interesting to me that Vulcan society has women in many positions of power and treats women as equal to men from what I've seen despite these laws. We don't really see Vulcans exhibiting a misogynistic attitude towards women in general but in TOS (perhaps because of its general writing style but it's still interesting to note) both Sarek and Spock take on patriarchal attitudes specifically regarding wives. Amanda says that 'of course' Sarek commands her because "he is a Vulcan and I am his wife." It's worthwhile in my eyes to note that she specifies 'wife' instead of attributing this attitude to women as a whole. Again, with TOS' writing style it wouldn't be out of place for her to say "he is a man and I am a woman." Spock, while in a pon farr induced irritation, states that it's "undignified for a woman to play servant to a man that isn't hers" - again implying that there's something specific about being a Wife in Vulcan society which is different from being a woman in general and demands subservience to a husband. This could perhaps stem from the extreme sense of ownership that Vulcan law has permitted men to have over women. A woman legally cannot point blank refuse marriage. There is no option which guarantees she won't have to marry her betrothed other than death. When T'Pau speaks of T'Pring she refers to her as being 'property' and Stonn, before being interrupted, states he's made 'the ancient claim' - we don't know what this is because he gets cut off but it's obvious they're both using the language of Vulcan law. Men are permitted true freedom to choose. If a woman wants to choose someone else to be with there is no option available to her other than the kal-if-fee which might result in the death of the one she wants to be with. And, if her lover fails, her husband can still just decide he wants to marry her and she'll be forced to. T'Pring gives two scenarios: One where Spock 'frees' her and one where he doesn't - it's still ultimately his decision which is clear when he ends the conversation with "Stonn, she is yours." This again isn't just because of the pon farr as T'Pol also goes through this. Koss can choose another mate and when the option is talked about there's no implication that this would result in any sort of fight (both by the casualness of its mention and by the fact that there's no formal word for it unlike the kal-if-fee.) Also, the fact that Koss does eventually grant T'Pol a divorce and it's all fine means that T'Pol isn't lawfully required to have another man waiting if her HUSBAND doesn't want her. It's ONLY required if SHE doesn't want her husband. Tradition must take precedence over individual desire UNLESS!!! You're a man. Then it's fine. Like, your parents might not be happy but legally you're golden.

Had to get this out of my system because I was literally falling asleep writing it in my notes last night. I was thinking about Jean, Connie, Porco, and Reiner's favorite positions. I don't know the name for all, but hope you can pick up what I'm putting down.

Jean - Softly dominant, more of a service top. He opts for position with depth that will brush up against all the spots that will leave his partner an exhausted, satisfied mess. He can be a little rougher if you ask, but he's more about slow, long sessions that teeter between primal and passionate. He encourages and talks you through it. Isn't satisfied unless you both finish (you multiple times if possible). He doesn't mind a quickie every now and then, but they're not his favorite since he likes to take his time. He really enjoys the intimacy and considers sex quality time. Starts tweaking and getting irritable if you guys haven't had sex in a while. He's not above begging for "just a little taste, I swear".

face sitting & 69

missionary while he holds your legs open or hand pressing down on your lower abdomen

mating press

you on your back while he holds you up by the hips to keep you waist level or with pillows under you (he prefers to hold you up, but pillows leave his hands free to play with your body)

on your knees

Going down on you with the tongue/finger combo while his free hand holds you down

things he says:

"Yeah? You like that don't you?"

"That's so fucking good, baby"

"You're mine. All mine."

(chuckling) "Yeahhhh. Good girl. Good girl."

"Thaaat's it. There we go. Yeah, baby."

"So beautiful. I love it when you (act)."

"Let me hear you."

Connie - Since he's a bit of a lazy lover, he usually opts for things that are a little less work on him or where the burden is shared. Lazy doesn't equal bad. Connie still gets the job done, but if you both only finish once, he's fine with that. Always down for a quickie. He talks the least out of the four. He's focused on the moment and satisfying you both. He's fun in bed though and will actually flip a coin or do rock paper scissors for who gets on top, especially if its late or in the middle of the night.

On your knees for him

Spooning while you hold your leg up (or any variation, but leg up is his favorite)

cowgirl while he sits up/rocking horse

you spread eagle on the counter

Any variation of doggy

69

Mutual masturbation or touching each other

things he says:

"Fuck, you feel so good."

"Touch yourself for me."

"Fuck, I know you like that."

"So pretty."

Porco - I think he takes on more of a dominant role. He can be rough and teasing, but he always gets the job done and satisfies you ten times over. While he likes depth so he can push your crazy button, he also opts for control. Pretty talkative and talks you through it. He uses this sweet, gravelly, honeyed voice when he is saying the filthiest things known to man. He talks the most out of the four, constantly praising or degrading you (whatever is your fancy lol). Porco will wear your ass out and be unforgiving about it. His stamina is crazy, so he's fine if he doesn't always finish. When you look at the time, you realize it's been three hours and he's still in your guts. Opposite of Jean in the sense that you will be the one tweaking if it's been a while.

Prone bone (especially in front of a mirror) while he chokes you, has his fingers in your mouth, hand over your mouth, or grips your jaw while either talking in you ear or biting/kissing your neck

From behind, but you're upright with your back against his chest (also would be great in front of a mirror)

Bent over the couch and any variation of doggy

Cowgirl

Missionary with one leg on his shoulder

Missionary where he restrains your arms by bear hugging your midsection while he drills into you

Another one that enjoys going down on you and using the tongue finger combo while his free arm holds you down

things he says

"Look at you. Already a fucking mess."

"You look so good doing/taking (act)."

"You want me to stop?" (Laugh) "I didn't think so."

"Tell me you love this."

"My greedy girl. Always wants me to (act)."

"My pussy, you hear me?"

"Yeahhh. That's it. I'm gonna make a mess outta you. Give me some more/one more."

"I know. I know. Come on, baby. You can do it."

(Laughs) "So fucking loud."

Reiner - He feels like he was made to please you in whatever form you like. He can be dominant but leans more towards the submissive side. Everything he does it to please you and he really, really gets off on pleasing you. He likes being in control, but uses his control to satiate you before considering himself. He doesn't mind a pillow princess since he believes he should be doing a bulk of the work anyway. He just wants you to enjoy yourself and make sure you're pleased. He's okay not always finishing as long as you're satisfied, but he will never say no to you finishing him or going another round to ensure that he finishes. Checks in with you constantly to make sure you're okay. He prefers a soft, passionate environment, but will absolutely rail you if that's what you want.

Face sitting (he doesn't care if he suffocates, SIT ON IT)

Missionary

Standing doggy

Lotus

Any variation of cowgirl, but he will do the work by pistoning up into you

Standing lotus (or any position where he can show off his strength but still please you)

Certified eater

things he says:

"That feel good, baby? You want more? Tell me you want more."

"Atta girl.” (Chuckle) “I knew you could do it."

"You look so fucking pretty when you..."

"Look at me. Yeah. Mhm. Just like that. Yeah, baby."

“Look at youuu. God, you look so good.”

the possibility of clace & sizzy having a double wedding is so funny to me because how would that even work. like you all need suggenes and you do not have that many close friends 😭 it can't all be Alec

[casually-eat-my-soul]

I’m just picturing bilbo talking about courting habit of hobbits to the company (maybe ori was asking questions idk) and he off handily mentions that hobbits court via food.

Cue the company wondering that if them eating his entire pantry and him letting them means something. This increases into an argument wether over whose the better dwarf. (Not that any of them are planning on doing anything but they were trying to figure out how to let Bilbo down and it spiralled into who was the best)

“I have better hair”

“I’m a BETTER FIGHTER”

“Well I can cook, Hobbits like food and lots of it.”

Thorin is silently stewing but can’t say anything. That is until Gandalf says that the courting only counts if the hobbit themselves cooks the food for you and serves you. (He thinks the drama is hilarious and wanted more entertainment)

The entire company then remembers that only only person he technically served was Thorin with the soup he cooked.

This only makes the fighting worse, and makes Thorin more smug. Fili and Kili are outraged

“We’re both royalty and younger and more attractive. What does uncle have that we don’t”

But they use this against him when he’s being rude to bilbo “oh be careful uncle, he might trade you in for a better model”

Balin is overjoyed because bilbo is persuasive and politically smart and doesn’t like gold. Dwalin doesn’t know whether to clown on Thorin or be scared over his future as a royal guard because bilbo is somehow worse than Thorin when it comes to death defining stunts.

The rest of the company still argues up until Thorin and bilbos wedding whether or not bilbo was counting them as well. They also make bets because or course they do.

Gandalf takes great, great pleasure in claiming credit for bringing the couple together but honestly he was just looking for entertainment.

the thing that gets me when watching random merlin bts videos is just how much work went into producing this silly show... I'll make fun of the little blue sidhe and then they'll interview someone from the costume department going "yes the makeup took us 8 hours to put together :)" or one of the CGI guys will talk about how they spent months trying to figure out how to animate kilgharrah and I'll feel bad for ever laughing at the bad special effects. the beautiful sets, the gorgeous handsewn gowns, the music. so much love was poured into this project it makes me a bit emotional if I think about it too much

[nibbelraz]

au where sqh jokingly asked mobei once 'would it be tacky of me to have a winter themed wedding' before they were together. mobei instantly says no because omg is this a proposal. was that his returning gesture. he has sha hualing on the demon phone in seconds. girl is he asking him out girl omg girl he asked about WEDDINGS and if a WINTER WEDDING would be TACKY OF HIM. this is him asking right. sha hualing like "you are so desperate it makes both of you stupid. lets say yes as a treat for us"

He's kicking his feet, twirling his hair, and appointing the second most competent guy he can find to get everything set for a Winter Wedding

Mobei Jun telling Luo Binghe which reaches Shen Qingqiu and Shen Qingqiu is just??? Because the last time he saw them both together Qinghua DEFINITELY wasn't aware of all the romantic (and other) tension they had so how the hell are they set to be married so soon

tfw you, as a mind reader, have to team up with a man who thinks too much

stan twins the canon cptsd brothers i will always think about all your unaddressed issues that would make perfect plot fuel for your spinoff

and also the whole 'stan getting that poem by bill via a website which contrasts with bill getting one from the axolotl via a website' foreshadowing thing

like idk i would love something like su future but like more optimistic, aka not an accumulated breakdown that has to be mostly resolved off screen at the end :/// but something thats being kinda addressed throughout? (although would love to see one of them turn into a monster thats always fun lol)

stan having severe issues from his dad and those years of being homeless that we keep on getting more info on but never really getting confronted on (the drifter catalogue and tijuana incident...), him being completely alone for like twenty years when running the shack before soos comes along to the point that 1998 is noted as his low point, and him not really learning about bill+what he did to ford until ages after he killed him if he ever did get the full context

while i think amnesia and everyone seeing him as a hero actually helped with stan's 'i'm a worse version of my brother' thing its still a lingering issue too and we now got him being insecure over his own hands

ford being immediately thrown from 'being tortured by bill' to 'being stuck in the multiverse and being chased by bounty hunters constantly', him fully expecting himself to die when destroying bill, and him only now being safe for the first time in 30 years ....relatively safe, he's still in constant danger because of course he is

idk in the end the series wants them to be happy and they deserve it, its why i wasn't too worried about the book being like 'ooh bill is back!! and the book is haunting ford' thing cos i knew they'll be ok
