_______________________________________
You shifted your legs slightly as the movie ended, trying to wiggle enough to grab the remote without disrupting Marc. 
He was dead asleep, breathing softly. His head resting comfortably against your shoulder. It was the first time you’d ever seen him resting so soundly. 
You shuffled again, your movements bolder this time in a vain effort to reach the remote. 
It was the first time in ages that you’d actually watched a film on live TV, and you knew it would be only a matter of seconds before an advert that was five hundred decibels louder than an aeroplane taking off started. 
It was nearly in your reach, nearly close enough for you to grasp and-
“COMING UP NEXT!”
Marc jolted awake, springing into a sitting position. His right arm flew to the side and across your body, it made you think of a driver protecting a passenger when they had to break suddenly.
“Hey, hey, it’s okay,” it was difficult to keep the smile out of your voice. “It’s just the TV.” You rubbed his back, trying to ease the tense muscles. 
Marc swallowed and looked around to you. He nodded once, still half asleep. A large tuff of his hair was sticking upwards from where he had rested.  
Quickly you grabbed the remote and turned the TV off. A vague silence filled the flat, punctuated by the faint buzzing of the fish tank and other electronics. 
You grinned at him, dipping your head to the side as you reached out and patted his hair, trying to smooth it back down. 
Marc hummed and closed his eyes leaning into your touch. “Feels nice.”
“Yeah?” 
“Yeah.” He looked so serene, angelic in the weak light. 
Slowly, you sank your fingers further into his hair and applied a light, but firm, pressure to his scalp. 
He groaned, pushing further into your touch. The persistent force of his movement forced you further back into the settee. 
You giggled as he urged you further, guiding you to laying down on your back with him between your legs. He tried to keep most of his weight off you, caging you in with his arms, but you could feel him steadily slipping as you continued to massage his head. 
Small moans and shudders escaped his lips until he was completely in your lap, his head resting against your chest and left arm hanging limply off the side. 
“I fell asleep didn’t I?” He mumbled into your top.
You grinned, continuing the massage, “You did.”
“Was I snoring?”
“No, you weren’t.”
“Steven says I snore.” He spoke into your stomach, unintentionally shifting forwards into your touch. 
“You were sort of,” you pause for a second, thinking, before you do your best to mimic his soft breathing from before.
“That’s snoring.” 
“No, snoring is this:” you do your very best over the top impression. 
Marc laughs. “Okay.”
You continue in silence for a while, staring at the ceiling and not thinking about anything in particular. 
There is even a moment you think that maybe Marc has fallen back to sleep. His breathing is heavier than it was before, but you slowly begin to notice a slight rocking motion. 
It’s almost ignorable at first, subtle enough for you to think that you are imagining it. But as you continue to massage Marc’s scalp the movements become more and more prominent. 
You wait, counting the seconds in your head. 
His breath hitches as he tries to bite back a moan.
“Marc?” You ask, faking an impressive level of innocence, and slow your hand movements.
He lifts his head a few centimetres from you. “Please don’t stop.” His voice is low and needy, his eyes lidded. 
You push his face up a little more so that you can get a better look at him as you scrap your fingers along his skin. The sensation sparks like lightning down to his stomach.
He can’t help it as his hips rock against the settee, the inner seam of his sweatpants rubbing against his hard cock. 
He groans, the sound rumbling deep within his chest as he bites hard on his bottom lip and closes his eyes. 
The sight of him is glorious as he is wrapped up in the sensations of his own pleasure. You can’t help but run your fingers over his scalp again, firmer this time and his answering moan is instantaneous. 
WIthout really thinking you shift slightly, bringing your legs up to wrap around him and lightly dig your heels into his plump ass. You apply a little pressure in time with his thrusts, encouraging him to rut harder.
“Baby,” he chokes back a little half sob as heat flares along his skin, pleasure coiling tightly in his lower abdomen. 
Oh this is all going too fast. If he doesn’t get a grip on himself soon he’s going to come in his (Steven’s) sweat pants.
He moves quickly, trying to not completely lose himself and give into the sweet sensations, and sits up a little.
You go to take your hands away from his head, and move your legs. Already starting to form an apology on your tongue, believing that you stepped over a boundary. 
“No, no, no,” he mutters quickly, grabbing hold of your hands and pressing them firmly against his hair. “Continue, continue please.” His voice cracks with ache and want, his eyes half lidded and pupils blown wide. His skin is so warm, burning as if he had drunk just a little too much. 
You nod quickly, in awe of how wrecked he looks.
Marc shifted his hands down to your waistband. “Wanna make you feel good please?” 
How can you relist when he asks you so nicely? 
You nod again, barely finishing the movement before he is ripping your trousers and underwear off you and throwing them somewhere to the side. It’s a miracle that he doesn’t send them flying into the TV and knocking it over. 
Throughout you try your best to continue the massage, rubbing your thumbs and fingers along his skin in a now ingrained pattern you know he likes. 
Marc lifts both of your thighs over his shoulders and settles down, causing you to have to curl up a little to keep your hands in his hair. 
He puts his right hand just underneath your lower back, positioning it ever so slightly so that your hips cant upwards, and wraps his left around your leg so that he can rub your clit. 
You let out a small shaky sigh as he touches you, so light and barely there. 
“Fuck.” His hisses, his hot breath hitting your outer thighs as he leans into you. “Ugh, you’re so wet.” 
He runs his nose up and down through your folds, groaning as your slick coats his skin. 
“Marc-” You cut yourself off with a string of expletives as he lightly grazes your clit with his teeth before plunging his tongue into your cunt. 
You pull tightly on his hair, the action involuntary and Marc lets out a beautiful high pinched wine as he grinds himself harder against the settee. 
His cock is throbbing, burning for attention as he laps at you, rocking you back and forward with his right hand as he encourages you to fuck his face in time with the rock of his hips. 
You’re achingly close already, pleasure sparking up and flooding your veins under his skilled actions. He continues to roll your clit between his left thumb and forefinger, pinching ever so slightly at seemingly random intervals.
You let out a gasped yelp, struggling to think, so overwhelmed with sensations and the need to continue to rub your hands through his hair. 
“Marc, fuck, shit,” you can feel it building quickly, a crescendo threatening to pull you down with it. 
Marc groans into you in response, fucking his tongue harder against you as he picks up the pace of his hips. 
Your legs begin to shake, your stomach muscles clenching. Just a little more and-
He pulls away quickly, kneeling with your wetness shining all over the bottom of his face. He grabs his cock, barely pulling his sweatpants down. 
“Can-I?” His words are so rushed that they come out all together. 
“Yes, yes, pleas-”
You cry out as he surges forward and pushes into you in one swift movement. His left hand guiding the base of his cock and then pushing your leg to the side, spreading you wide so that it’s half dangling off the settee. 
You grab at his biceps, screwing up your eyes as he fills you so perfectly. 
He lets out a long moan, his eyebrows pinched together as he feels you squeeze down on him. 
“Hands, hands,” he mutters, so mumbled and slurred that it takes your brain a second to catch up. “Please, baby, please.” He moans again as you rock against him, his own hips still. 
You sink your fingers back into his hair, whimpering as you buck again. 
“Stay still for me, just for a second, just for a second…”
You wine, but do what he asks. Your orgasm is so close, you taste it. Feel the edges of it running along your skin. 
“Marc, please.”
He opens his eyes and nods. But he still doesn’t move his hips. Instead he reaches down and circles your clit with his fingers, rubbing soft small circles that match the speed and pressure of your own hands in his hair. 
You gasp and change direction and so does he. You scrap your nails against his skin and he lightly pinches. 
He can’t help but rock ever so slightly, barely moving out of you, needing to feel every single flutter against the length of his cock. 
“Need to feel you squeeze me, need you to- shit,” he gasps as you come, your orgasm hitting you like a surge of electricity. 
You moan out his name. Your back aching and grabbing hold of fistfuls of his hair, dragging him on top of you. 
He sobs as you pulse around him, milking him for everything he could give as he comes, following you down into that mind shattering ecstasy as you pull on his hair. 
Sweat begins to cool on your skin as you come back to yourself, breathing heavily. It’s only then that you realise both of you are still mostly dressed, and that you still have a death grip on Marc’s hair.
“Shit, I’m sorry.” You release him quickly. But he just murmurs sleepily into your neck. 
“It’s fine. Feels nice.”

Welcome to all the redditors using Tumblr for the first time! Here's some tips for someone new to the site:
1. There is a daily post limit of 250.
2. The queue can hold 1000 posts.
3. If you're using the mobile app they recently added a read more sign at the bottom when making a post, this is useful for super long posts such as fanfiction and big photo sets or even long analysis posts! But if it's not working for you (god knows this site's features big out regularly) you can type :readmore: on a line by itself and press enter!
4. Speaking of fanfics, fans post both fanart and fanfic on this site so you'll come across both in tags! Along with gifsets, photo sets, music playlists, and character/show analysis.
5. Blocking is used very regularly on here and you can even block anonymous askers and report them to staff if they're harassing you.
6. Don't worry about censoring yourself, like reddit you're free to say fuck here.
7. There is nsfw on the site and some things get struck by the nsfw detection and some things don't, no one on this site knows how it works either but if you use the community tags you'll probably be fine.
8. If someone is being a dick we block them but also we kung pow penis them. This wrecks devastation on their notifications.
9. No one really uses Tumblr live. Almost all of the site just turns it off every week (found in settings).
10. Tags can be very useful for organizing posts! If you man an original post about a thing you like and you would like people to see it you can tag it with the things name. You can also tag reblogs of that thing to keep track of posts about that thing. Tagging a reblogged post will not make it show up in the site's tags, just your blogs tags, so don't worry about your reblog spamming site tags!
11. Oh! Speaking of tags, only the first 5 or 6 really matter, so if you want you post to be seen in a specific tag make sure it's one of the first ones!
12. With pictures you can upload 10 pics to one post on mobile and 30 pics to one post on desktop!

Let's talk about Deep Cover!
Spoilers under the cut
I specifically want to talk about the statue pieces, because those have peaked my interest.
Tumblr media
We get a good look at all the pieces during the spinning montage. I edited them together bc Tumblr hates mobile users and has a photo limit. They're notably not really chess pieces, though some of them sort of do resemble chess pieces (I did do a long and painstaking search through faerie chess pieces and while some resemble those, most of them are completely unique).
So what are they?
I have no fucking clue.
So anyway! A big thing is the cracks in each of the pieces in the prisoner's own specific colors. I don't think there's a specific meaning to where the cracks are, but they each seem to be wrapping around the pieces.
Then we have Kotoko destroying the pieces.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here we see Kotoko in the act of breaking Fuuta's piece, presumably his specifically because everyone found out about her attacks as she was attacking him. Then moments after that, they discover Mahiru was already attacked, shown by her broken piece moments later.
Then things get more interesting.
Tumblr media
You see the lighting change into this cool pink and blue color, as shes swarmed by the broken pieces of the four guilty prisoners. I think this change in lighting symbolizes her future goals. She hasn't yet broken Mikoto or Amane, but she plans to as well.
Later on in the song, after the flashback, the lighting gets even more intense. At this point in the song, she's insulting the other prisoners. I didn't notice this originally, but the ones she speaks about are specifically those who were voted innocent. She calls out her own criticisms of them, and her own reasons for why she thinks they should be guilty.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And the pieces are broken. She doesn't just want to attack the guilty prisoners, she wants to find reasons for everyone to be guilty to justify taking them down. She specifically tells Es to "just choose the only choice, GUILTY." Taking down bad people is her life's purpose, and she needs that to feel valued. Now that Es has taken over finding who's guilty, she has nothing to do but wait to attack. But fulfilling this purpose is a necessity to her, she needs it to survive.
Some might even say she needs it like a wolf needs food.
Tumblr media
This wolf like desire inside of her is taking over, and she knows that if she hurts all of the prisoners, it will grow and completely consume her. And she's scared of it, you can see that in her expression, but at the same time, she needs it. She wants it.

I had a fleeting idea to buy a print from a photographer (who originally did the fuck ring photo we all love dearly) but over 50£ with shipping plus VAT? (Okay okay it's reasonably large, it is on the photo felt thingie, and limited quantity but..) "EU" shipping my arse.. (I know i could ship it to elsewhere and then to myself but it is basically doubling the shipping cost. Just don't say EU shipping when you don't ship to every EU country please..) So nope. 60 something £? No Thank you. I will be perfectly fine without it.
More importantly i still need to get frames for Misha's stuff anyway. I think i found the perfect ones that would match but i still need to measure it properly before ordering. Also managed to forgot today and tomorrow is occupied by cusins so i probably will only be able to resume the small offerings on sunday. And also be less active but in light of recent days that's nothing new really.
Also tumblr is still glitchy and weird anyway on my end, i can't see notifications neither on mobile nor desktop, i still cannot write a comment and i can barely post. Let alone upload a picture. Let's hope it get's fixed sooner rather thank later.

anyway I have to cut further back on my tungle usage
so about a month ago now tumblr deleted my decade-old nsfw blog and it fucking crushed me. I vowed to stop using tumblr because like FUCK YOU but obviously I came crawling back like the pathetic little shit they've trained me to be. basically the only behavioral change I've made is ceasing posting personal stuff
but that isn't enough
every time I pass an ad scrolling through the mobile app I'm earning them ad revenue, I'm supporting this shitty traitorous website.
and let's call it what it IS. they are traitorous. they're actively hostile towards their loyal userbase and frankly it's getting out of hand
TUMBLR WILL NEVER GO BACK TO THE WAY IT WAS THIS SHIT IS GOING TO GET WORSE AND WORSE
so from now on I'll only be using the desktop site because I have ad block. that will also significantly reduce my usage because it's a hell of a lot more inconvenient, also this place looks like SHIT now lol
I'll also be using that limited time to check up on mutuals first then favorite blogs, then MAYBE my general dash
but it's time to move on.
I'm pretty active on pillowfort, been posting a lot more personal stuff than I actually used to, less rambling thoughts and more photos of hobbies and art and such. if you wanna know what it's like over there just shoot me a message or even ask for an invite key. it's definitely different than tumblr in a way that not everyone is going to like, but at least over there I don't have to worry about my shit getting censored or deleted. idk man, I say just give it a chance -- what have you got to lose?

Tumblr media
If a thinspo blog follows you, immediately block and report them.
They do not follow people, especially fat people or people who post fat representation, for good purposes. They have malicious intentions, and you do not need to wait for a thinspo blog who follows you to prove their intentions before blocking and reporting them. I once had a thinspo blog who had tried to follow me, and upon me blocking and reporting them, they wrote an angry post where they genuinely believed they were entitled to access of fat positive blogs for their bigotry.
Vet your followers and notes as much as you can. Most of the time these people are easy to notice as thinspo blogs just by their url or icon, but not every thinspo blog is. And oftentimes, thinspo blogs will try to use a fake front to secretly engage in thinspo without being reported or blocked by the fat people they mock. If their likes and follows are visible, vet those. If their likes and follows are private, look for other signs. I'll have to write a list of signs later, but some main signs are their blog content having nothing to do with what you post, they're an aesthetic blog, they're an aesthetic blog and all of their "aesthetic" posts are of thin people, they only post photos of extremely thin kpop group members, the photos they post "just happen" to focus way too much on thin waists/legs/wrists, all of their "aesthetic" posts of thin bodies don't show the thin person's face, they post "fitspo," they have weight goals in their pinned post or blog bio, they glorify stuff like black coffee or skeletons, their blog has posts about other types of self harm or focuses a lot on gore and horror, they have written on their blog somewhere the term "pro-recovery," their blog is obsessed with hyper feminine/"dainty" aesthetics, their posts are "motivational posts" that are extremely vague so they can pretend their blog isn't about thinness (usually quotes like "Do you really want to give up now?" "You're one step closer to your dream life" or "You can achieve anything as long as you have the will to endure the journey"), etc.
When you report the user, you'll press "report something else." Then you'll be taken to this page where you press "Suicide or self-harm concern."
Tumblr media
The next page asks if the person is threatening suicide. Usually this answer, at least in my experience, has been no. Even if their starvation diet they're posting about can lead to death, this page is more so about if the person is literally saying they're going to kill themself.
The last page will ask for a link to a post for evidence as well as asking you to press a button to show you're not a bot.
Tumblr media
If you're reporting the user on desktop, the page won't force you to include a specific post. If you're reporting on mobile, you have to include a link unless this requirement has recently changed. I don't know the specifics of how Tumblr staff chooses whether a thinspo blog is terminated, but I usually scroll through the thinspo person's blog to find the most damning post possible—a post that hopefully can't be denied as thinspo. Even when I'm not reporting using mobile and thus am able to submit the report without a link, I still include a link to a damning post just in case that is the make or break of whether or not the thinspo blog is terminated.
If the thinspo blog only has those posts in their likes, I tend to link the post straight from their likes and hope that Tumblr staff will realize how the post is connected to the thinspo blog. If I'm remembering correctly, this method might still work since I once reported a terf blog whose likes were nothing but secret child porn, and I believe the blog was still terminated even though the posts hadn't been anywhere except their likes. You can also try reporting the thinspo blog as other options if you have no other choice. Also keep in mind that Tumblr has a fucked up limit on reporting people. So if you're dealing with dozens of thinspo blogs, you'll likely only be able to report three at a time or possibly even none. Tumblr allows unlimited reports of spam and sexual content but not other issues (because that's the only stuff that harms Tumblr staff too instead of just the userbase). There have been many times where Tumblr wasn't allowing me to press the report button when trying to report a thinspo blog. During those times, I would have to send the blog to Mod Squirrel so she could report the user for me.
Thinspo blogs that follow you are not innocent. They're not using your blog to try to recover. They are following you for malicious purposes, and it is imperative that you block and report any thinspo blog that tries to interact with you. They are only following your blog to cause harm. Stay safe.
You know, I thought I had seen the horrid extent of the bigotry that thinspo people spew from their cruel, hate-filled hearts. But then a thinspo blog shared my personal post about my medical scare that caused me to be in an ambulance. Obviously assuming I was there because I accidentally swallowed a soda straw or choked on a hamburger, this bigot decided that it was completely acceptable, moral, and justifiable to mock and laugh at a random stranger's medical emergency. Just because that stranger happened to be fat. Nevermind the actual reason for a medical team being called was due to heat stroke in the 98 degree Florida heat. Nevermind that I could have been seriously harmed. People who run thinspo blogs genuinely believe that fat people are subhuman, entertainment, objects, clowns, freakshows, tools, and "motivation" personified. There is not a single mental illness in existence that excuses laughing and throwing up to the thought of an innocent stranger having to be put in an ambulance. There is no "only pro for me," no "not pro just using tags," no "this blog is my safe space." There never was, and there sure as hell isn't now.
If you follow fat positive blogs to use photos of fat strangers for a laugh, for your "inspiration," for your sadistic circle jerk with your thinspo friends who are all slowly killing each other, you are objectively, definitively a bad person. And you deserve not a single drop of sympathy.

SHOW ME THE CATS... If you are comfortable with it... AND TELL ME MORE please 💕
Hoo boy alright 😅
This is my oldest one
Tumblr media
He’s called Wiepie (I speak Dutch ). He’s 12 and from Germany! We found him  as a stray kitten in the middle of nowhere while we were there on a holiday. He’s the dumbest cat I’ve ever met. No sign of intelligence behind his eyes. He’s awesome.
Tumblr media
This is the second oldest.
Tumblr media
She’s called Bellie and she is 10. She is suuuper chatty and always replies when you talk to her. The cuddliest cat I have. She has a white spot on her back and loves belly rubs.
The next two are the same age.
Tumblr media
This is Nero and he is 7. He used to be a stray that just stumbled into our garden one day and he never left. He has some serious trust issues, but once you earn his trust, he constantly asks for attention. He also misses one of his canines so he always bleps.
Tumblr media
She is also 7 and is called Lou-Lou. She is French, also a stray kitten. Very loyal, takes no shit. The cat that I am closest to, we really are best pals. She also hates everyone except for me. A++ people judging skills.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is Chanelle and she is BEAUTIFUL. Has been looking like a goddamn model for 5 years now. She has IT. Super sweet, big cuddler, also adores belly rubs. S o f t. Has curly hair on her belly.
The youngest crew member.
Tumblr media
Her name is Cleo and she is 3! She growls. Very feisty girl who can not Chill. Always active. Bit weird. She also used to play fetch as a kitten.
The newest member is also a stray cat that just showed up a few months ago. He used to be hostile towards our cats, but he has calmed down and is super friendly now. I don’t have any pictures yet. He’s a tuxedo cat and once he has put on some more weight I’m taking him to the vet to get him vaccinated and neutered.

Loading log, tutorial, progress : 100%
Tumblr media
Thank you so much! I spent so long trying to make a mobile theme that I liked (ಥ﹏ಥ)
I took heavy inspo from the game GTFO, more specifically, the terminals that you can use while trying to sneak by creepy creatures that will fuck you the hell up if you wake them...
I don't know if you were actually looking for a tutorial or not, but I'm giving one to you anyways lol...
There will be many sections to this post, with some links sprinkled in, and it's a bit long, so it'll be under the cut...
Tumblr media
-#: TEXT
While simple, this is easily the place where you can make or break your theme. While tumblr does supply alternative fonts (i use chat for my theme), others are not as nice (lucille im looking at you bitch)...
I have two different places I go to for my fonts. I have a custom keyboard on my phone (it has a subscription option for more fonts that I refuse to pay for), and a website that I copy and paste from. The website has more options, and it's completely free, so I mostly use that...
𝖙𝖊𝖘𝖙𝖎𝖓𝖌 — 𝕥𝕖𝕤𝕥𝕚𝕟𝕘 — 𝐭𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 — 𝓉𝑒𝓈𝓉𝒾𝓃𝑔 — 𝙩𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜
Keep in mind that using an abundance of fancy text could make it hard for people to read whatever's written in that font. That, and i find using only the copy pasted text to be quite ugly. I've seen someone use the second testing font entirely for their pinned post, and it is not a good look...
The same can be said for making all of your text small, though I personally haven't had issue with small text unless I'm reading fanfiction in the dark...
Text colour is also a nice addition to pull together a theme. While there are some bright colours that you can use from what's provided, it's not much...
This text post goes through the steps of adding custom gradients or colours to text, if that's something you're interested in...
Also, please, for the love of god, put a fucking read more on any text post that's longer than one(!!!) mobile screen in length. The amount of fics that are good that I refuse to reblog because you have to spend 5 minutes just to scroll past it is infuriating and saddening, we don't need a text version of "do you love the colour of the sky?" Okay? Okay...
Tumblr media
-#: DECALS?
It's the little things that tie everything together, so I suggest looking here or here or here for some ideas...
To make things easier for you, I would suggest copy pasting anything you like into a google doc, so that you have everything in one place for future use...
Tumblr media
-#: DIVIDERS
There are many different ways you can spice up a text post, and dividers are one of them! animated or still work just as good, you just have to find what works with your aesthetic...
There are many places you can find dividers gifs or static, let me know if you would like me to compile a set for you from what I have saved...
Tumblr media
-#: PICTURES
Pinterest is my go to for aesthetic pictures. There's a huge variety, and making a pintrest board for your theme will help to curate more options if you wanna change something up...
You can mix multiple pictures together, up to three side by side...
Or you can make it look like there's only one picture by putting white/black/ transparent photos on either side, depending on your theme...
Keep in mind that a post is limited to 10 pictures, so you might have to break out a photo editor if you planned on using a lot of media...
Tumblr media
-#: OTHERS
A good place to start for making your theme is to look at the anime fanfic community here on tumblr. The way these people make pinned posts look like works of art...
Some of my favourites:...
#. @bykii #. @eijirhoe
#. @aitarose #. @21-06-1996
#. @tteokdoroki #. @kurosukii
!NOTE! Many of these blogs are 18+ please follow their dni before interacting with any of their content...
Some shameless self promo:...
#. @lxvlxck #. @pythonees
Tumblr media
In the end, all that matters is what you like. I tried to keep things vague enough, though I don't know how well I did as this is my first tutorial...
Hope this was helpful! Enjoy making your aesthetic pinned post, or a cute template for your fan-fiction!...

Bruh, idk how you could stand being shadowbaned for so long it feels weird. I didn't realize it restricted so much.
Also, I can't reply to the ask u sent cause I'm a dummy and also hit post limit 😔

It sucks so fucking much I swear.
You want my advice? Repeal the ban on desktop, not mobile. Whenever I tried on mobile jack shit got done about it, but lo and behold when I did it on desktop the issue was solved in a few hours.
To stop the ban happening again? Tumblr saves the damn photo that got you shadow banned and even cropping the thing and reposting will get you yeeted again. Happened to me when I wanted to make an art gift my pfp, and cropped out my PC's nipple from it. Didn't matter. Also I'm pretty sure when I had an Eden background that they shadowbanned me for his damn boobies. ITS MALE EDEN! HIS BOOBIES ARE ALLOWED TUMBLR!

Good news: They're not taking away chronological feeds. At least not yet.
Bad news: They're still taking away damn near everything else that makes this site special. You have to sign in to send anon asks. You have to sign in to see damn near ANYTHING on here. They're collapsing reblog chains like twitter so you can't see the entire conversation. They're basically making it impossible to completely opt out of push notifications. They refuse to get rid of or even give the option to permanently opt out of tumblr live, despite the many many risks it poses. You can't click on a post to see the previous tags anymore. The photo viewer is so fucked up in so many ways. You can't zoom in on photos, and (at least on mobile) if you swipe up even accidentally, it shows you some random photo from some random "related" post. They're phasing out the custom blog themes.
They're ignoring all the changes everyone on here actually WANTS and instead are making changes everyone is BEGGING THEM NOT TO MAKE.
I saw and reblogged a post that made pretty much all the same points I just made, as well as a call to leave bad reviews on the app to show them just how pissed off and upset their user base is with these changes. I'm gonna call for the same thing. I already left a bad review, and I wish it wasn't limited to only being 500 characters long because otherwise I would have listed all the rancid fucking update decisions they've made.
We might not be able to do much, but we might as well do what we can.
The staff basically implying/threatening the loss of the chronological feed is fucking infuriating to me.
I literally left Facebook initially BECAUSE OF THE LOSS/LACK OF A CHRONOLOGICAL FEED.
IT GOT TOO CONFUSING TO USE WITHOUT A CHRONOLOGICAL TIME LINE.
If that goes through and we lose the chronological feed of only blogs we follow.....I'm fucking leaving. I came here BECAUSE tumblr was different from all these other disaster sites. Now they're threatening to make it the same.
Sure, learning how to use tumblr at first was a bit of a learning curve, but guess what? Any app would have been. And tumblr users everywhere will make posts on how to navigate the site and curate your existence better. It's like getting a new job. You know NOTHING at first, and the "training" can only take you so far. But that's what your coworkers and sometimes managers are for. For helping you figure out everything as you go along. And eventually, you figure it out, and you wind up helping the next new person figure out how to do things. New users just need to learn the ropes from experience and from older users and that's it.
The point is....don't change everything that makes this site great. The current user base is screaming from the hilltops the changes we want made, and we are being all but completely IGNORED.
Make the changes we've been begging for. Not the changes we've been begging not to happen.

𝐓𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐤𝐚 𝐍𝐒//𝐅𝐖 𝐀𝐥𝐩𝐡𝐚𝐛𝐞𝐭
Pairing: tanka x gender neutral!reader (afab)
Note: Its 1am this probably sucks
Warnings: Smut (duh), mentions of public sex
Tumblr media
A = Aftercare (What they’re like after sex)
tanaka is the sweetest and you cannot change my mind that he is touch starved. therefore, aftercare is the perfect opportunity for him to cuddle you and tell you how good you did or the other way round, depending on your preferred dynamics. If he's doing the aftercare, he always has a sports drink next to the bed for you and makes sure you drink it and have come down from your high before he drags you into the shower with him.
B = Body part (Their favourite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)
It's his abs. Not to be predictable but they're something he worked hard on and it definitely payed off, so what if he likes seeing the look on your face when you see them?
Ryu is an ass man through and through, he matter the size his hands are all over that thing. Even when you're making out his hands are squeezing and rubbing your ass like it's his personal treasure.
C = Cum (Anything to do with cum basically… I’m a disgusting person)
He is lowkey a messy person when it comes to cum, yours or his. He likes yours all over his face and in his mouth sk he can taste you. However, he prefers his to be over your ass or the back of your thighs if he isn't allowed to come inside you (his first choice).
D = Dirty Secret (Pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)
He kinda likes pain. It isnt really a dirty secret cause it takes him a while to notice but he can't help but shiver and moan when you scratch your nails down his back or bite his neck to muffle your moans. Tanaka even likes pressing down on them to feel some pain when he gets off.
E = Experience (How experienced are they? Do they know what they’re doing?)
I feel like he has a decent amount of experience maybe a couple of other people but he does research this kinda stuff and tries his best to adhere to any feedback you give him.
F = Favourite Position (This goes without saying. Will probably include a visual)
Any position he can see your ass in. Just the visual of his hips hitting your ass and it jiggling could make him come so he prefers reverse cowgirl etc. Not picky though, hes Tanaka.
G = Goofy (Are they more serious in the moment, or are they humorous, etc)
I feel like its 50/50 with Ryu. He could totally go for giggly sex and a lot of the time it is. If you start laughing about something he'll join in and he even laughs at himself a lot during it too. However, if hes super worked up then it's all about ramming you/getting rammed into the mattress and giggles can come during aftercare thanks.
H = Hair (How well groomed are they, does the carpet match the drapes, etc.)
He probably shaves. If it's not almost completely hairless then it's very well groomed and kept short. Couldn't care less about your body hair, he just doesn't like it on him.
I = Intimacy (How are they during the moment, romantic aspect…)
When he really gets into it, especially when hes about to finish, he gives out more and more praise. This can range from complimenting your body and making lewd comments to straight up repeating goes much he loves you. Apart from that, hes fairly romantic but not really if you get me. He'll praise you but he isnt exactly laying out verbal rose petals.
J = Jerk Off (How often, what are they thinking about, …)
Hes a horny bastard, he jerks off a lot. With your permission, he probably has some photos saved of you that he uses to get off and if not he has plenty of memories of you that he can use as inspiration.
K = Kink (One or more of their kinks)
I firmly believe he is up to trying anything at least once. However, does have a thing for quite literally fucking you stupid. The whole eyes unfocused, drooling and unable to say anything but his name makes him hard just at the thought.
L = Location (Favourite places to do the do)
Anywhere and everywhere. Has literally no shame but hes a little possessive so, if you're doing in in public, he's making sure nobody can see you because that's his and his only to look at. This being said, he has a thing for shower sex. The way the water flows down your body makes sure that he is at least a little hard and you can't really take a shower together without it ended with probably a blow job.
M = Motivation (What turns them on, gets them going)
When you wear certain clothes. For example if you're wearing something tight or short he can't help but oggle a lot. God forbid you decided to wear some of his clothes or walk around in nothing but his tshirt and underwear. Tanaka really won't be able to control himself.
N = NO (Something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)
Like nasty degradation. He doesn't like anything that could potentially emotionally hurt you, even if you like it. Insulting you, sexual or not, will always leave him with a feeling of guilt and he just can't carry on with whatever you guys were doing
O = Oral (Preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc)
Now, he likes getting his dick sucked cause duh. However, he lives for giving you oral. Tanaka can and will be between your legs all day if he could and this means face sitting is an amazing experience. His skills are nothing to blink at either, be can get you to be a moaning mess within seconds and he probably gets a couple of piercings just to make that experience better for you.
P = Pace (Are they fast and rough? Slow and sensual? etc.)
With the exception of when you're upset, Tanaka is usually fast and rough. He cant help himself, sometimes you're just too hot and he always fucks you like there's no tomorrow.
Q = Quickie (Their opinions on quickies rather than proper sex, how often, etc.)
He is up for anything, like I said earlier. Plus he's very easily turned on so quickies are a fairly normal thing for you guys, they're not his favourite though because he tends to prefer a lot of rounds.
R = Risk (Are they game to experiment, do they take risks, etc.)
Like I said before, hes up for anything once. If you want him to do it, he'll probably give it a go! Risks are a thing he's willing to take as long as you're comfortable with it.
S = Stamina (How many rounds can they go for, how long do they last…)
His stamina is no joke. Seriously, he can go for a good 3 rounds before he even starts getting tired. Most of the time, you come more times than him cause you're the main focus so he tries to limit the amount of rounds for you two.
T = Toy (Do they own toys? Do they use them? On a partner or themselves?)
Very basic toys like a vibrator and a pair of handcuffs for either of you. Most of your guys sex isnt actually pre planned so the handcuffs are more common than other toys but he enjoys when he gets to bring them out.
U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)
Little shit thinks it's funny to pull away to 'stretch' just when you're about to come. He is in this mainly for your pleasure but he can't help but rile you up sometimes and get you whining.
V = Volume (How loud they are, what sounds they make)
I'd say hes relitavely loud. Loud enough that public sex isn't often but not loud enough for that many noise complaints from the neighbours. He can't help but get caught up and start spewing dirty talk in your ear between grunts and low pitched moans and your response usually increases his volume a little.
W = Wild Card (Get a random headcanon for the character of your choice)
Let him leave hickey hearts on you! Seriously, he has a thing for it and likes seeing them when you get changed in front of him. It's like a weird possession thing or maybe he just thinks it's cute, who knows.
X = X-Ray (Let’s see what’s going on in those pants, picture or words)
I'd say he's slightly bigger than average in length and has a good girth for him. His dick has a few prominent veins that are sensitive.
Y = Yearning (How high is their sex drive?)
Higher than average, definitely. Can and will have you every single night if you let him, even after a long day.
Z = ZZZ (… how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)
I feel like he gets kinda hungry after sex and his aftercare is kinda long. After your shower, he probably makes a sandwich or something, eats it and comes back to bed after. Might spend a little time talking to you before he's out like a light.
Tumblr mobile likes to be annoying so sorry for any spelling mistakes! Requests are open and enjoy

The Eyes Have It
Tumblr media
Photo Sources
Welcome to the Greatest Hits of JDTT!
This list would not be complete without a post about Jensen's stunning green eyes. Studies have shown that people with green eyes tend to be creative and sensitive individuals. They are passionate, highly motivated, slow to anger, and sharp-minded, but can also be unpredictable and mysterious.
Jensen's eye color has been described as fanfiction green, candy-apple green, hazel, grey-green, leafy, virid, golden, mossy, and every shade of green in-between.
As this is the last JDTT, I will not put a limit on the number of images to share (unfortunately, tumblr will).

Hello! This is a blog for Master Keaton scans! Here's some info on what I'm doing and each chapter that I have currently!
I'm not a professional scanner, and if I'm being honest all of this is done on my phone and on tumblr's mobile app (and desktop) so some things won't look as crisp as it would if I did know what the hell I was doing/lh
I'll upload when I can, and if you have notifications set for this blog you'll get a ton of them, because I have to upload everything in parts (damn Tumblr's photo limit) and edit each part to have the text formatted, links and tags added, which I do one at a time to each post so I can limit the amount of fuck ups I make. If that doesn't bother you then feel free to keep them on ^^'
The question box is open if you need anything tagged or to let me know if I missed anything :>
Edit (7/7/23): I got a scanner, it's an oldie but a goodie, so - much clearer scans, but potentially same occasional upload schedule (hopefully bumped up to more than once a year). I'm excited to bring more to the fandom for those who can't access this material themselves, happy reading!
Here's what I got so far!
MK Vol. 6
Chapter 1 (part 1, 2, 3.)
Chapter 2 (part 1, 2, 3.)
Chapter 3 (full)

Uh, hi? I'm sorry if I'm sending a ton of asks. I accidentally sent an unfinished one and didn't know there was a character limit?? Like I typed a lot on one and it never had a limit so I'm not sure if it's like a mobile vs desktop thing? I'm really bad at Tumblr lol. Uh anyway, my interests are almost entirely dnd and art. I mostly run games for my friends and do world building or plot stuff. When I actually play I always struggle between wanting to play something useful but then get upset when I get brushed off as "not a damage dealer" like yeah I can heal you 30 HP with a 1st level spell but I'm doing 4d8 minimum damage a round. I know basically every ability in the game and usualy use that understanding to work around my allies and make it so they can work as effectively as possible. But I feel like helping them be the best they can be takes away from me and makes it look like I'm not actually contrabuting? Like noticing that I'm the reason y'all are attacking more often would be cool. When I do play damage dealers I have a lot of fun at first bit get annoyed at their lack of non combative abilitys and uses. I'm a very talkative player and like to poke and prod everything and try to advance the plot or keep people on track. I tend to absorb as much information as I can about topics that interest me or just ammuse me so I can spout off that information at random or help people apply that information to whatever (like me the DM, telling my players how to make their characters even stronger without realizing I have to deal with them) I really enjoy art and I dabble in photography? I think my abilitys with photography are more of a natural inclination towards taking good photos more than actually knowing anything about photography? I was one of my photo teachers favorites even though I just winged everything and pretended I knew what I was doing. I do that a lot. Acting like I know what I'm doing just because it makes things easier when I have to put up with other people involving it. I'm a big fan of cryptids and I've been meaning to just do a deep dive and learn every tidbit I can but I haven't yet. Estheticaly I'm very drawn to crowns. I just adore them for some reason and I always have. When I took my friends senior photos he payed me by taking me to spirit Halloween and buying me a crown. I joke about it being my thinking crown and like to wear it while I work. A reoccurring thing that pops up in my life is bees? They're just a part of my personality at this point. I love those lil guys (did you know they can smell fear and do math?) Something I just remembered about myself is that I'm capable of beliving two entirely contradictory things. Like tarot? It's nonsense. But also it's literally never been wrong so I guess it's not? Same with how I feel guilty taking on any "main character" role in games but constantly joke about being all powerful and a being a book or cartoon character that I'm pretty sure I'm slowly trucking myself into genuinely seeing myself as a powerful entity. I'm really good at noticing patterns in the way people act and why they act the way they do and most of the time I just use that knowledge to "win" debates or whatever they just try to argue towards me. By win I mean I just intentionally misconstrued what they're saying to annoy them until they leave me alone (like "fuck you!" "No thanks I'm not interested") a lot of what I do is motivated by how funny I think I would be. Like tricking myself into kinning vriska? Hilarious. Getting into Homestuck so I can annoy my friends with useless trivia? Wonderful. Making my super friendly flower cleric and nicest character I've ever made also a raging anarchist and overthrowing two governments and killing a god through the power of friendship? God tier funny (in my eyes). I do a lot of things just so I can have a story to tell later (like killing the god) uh I think I've rambled for a while so I'm just gonna send this?
No worries about all the asks! I just want to say in advance that I really hope I don't confuse you further, but here's what I can figure out based on the information you've given me:
Your aspect is definitely Light. This is the clearest I've ever been able to determine someone's aspect so I don't think you need to doubt that. So much about Light is important to you - information/knowledge, your approach to stories, your focus on roles in reality (even if it’s fictional dnd reality). 
However, I don’t think you’re a Rogue. The classes I suggest you consider are Maid, Witch and Knight.
Maid might describe your relationship to wanting to be acknowledged as a contributor, but often being ignored. It would also explain why you constantly create Light for others, but desire to sometimes take on those roles yourself. You also appear to create situations for yourself to then create Light in the form of stories, as well as creating Light through plot/worldbuilding.
Witch is an option as you do sometimes appear to manipulate Light - intentionally misconstruing what people say, slowly changing reality by doing things because they’re funny, and using your knowledge to change things for your teammates. Poking and prodding at the plot is a very Witch-like trait. Witches also tend to be confident with their aspect. 
Finally, Knight might explain why you think you’re redistributing Light - perhaps you’re serving it instead. You do tend to use Light as both a weapon and to protect others when playing dnd. Joking about being a powerful entity and pretending you know how to do photography are both very Knight-like traits. However, Knights tend to only pretend to be confident in their aspect which might not suit you if you truly are confident with Light. 
I know I just gave you three new classes to consider! Probably not very helpful, sorry. Though with your own knowledge of classpects, you might be able to easily dismiss some of these yourself. Of course, my general advice is which do you feel you do more often - create, change or serve? Maybe there’s particular roles in dnd that you’re drawn to which would line up with one of these. 
Well, I really hope I’ve helped somewhat rather than confusing you more, but feel free to keep sending me asks if you need help narrowing it down. I’m sure you’ll figure out your classpect though, don’t worry. ^^

I have the new text editor beta for myself and I have already twice had to turn it off because I have run out of the character limit. I hope they will really remove that (as well as the max. 10 photos/post, I already hate that on mobile!) - or more like: won't make it into a permanent change. Because that shit is fucking bullshit. I often write down my thought on this website and with that character limit I probably would face that limit on almost every single post I ever make. Like, I haven't been able to even finish a simple tag game post so far without having to switch back to the old text editor!
And yes, I already sent feedback to the staff. I hope they will take people seriously or I will have to find another place for my thoughts and I... don't really want that. I have had blogs before and Tumblr is the only one where people can support each other without having to say anything in words. On blogs you can't unless you have some sort of likes system - and I don't think people really go to blogs that much anymore. Here everything happens in real time, on other types of blogs you might see a 2 weeks old post and at that point a like doesn't really feel like almost anything, unlike when receiving a like withing hours of posting something.

Image Descriptions Make You a Better Writer
Writing is a form of art and imagination that can’t be expressed visually the way most other forms of art can, and yet words can fill your heads with images of places you’ve never seen or even considered before.
So reasonably, it’s probably good to practice describing things to people who can’t see the thing you’re describing. and the best way to do that is to learn to write image description.
What is an image description?
It’s a paragraph of text written to describe the image it’s attached to, and it’s written for those of the internet who can’t see the image because they’re blind or visually impaired. Blind/VI people often use screen readers which read all the text on screen for them, but screen readers can’t understand and describe images, so they rely on someone writing an image description down so that blind/VI internet users can understand the image they can’t see.
It’s a form of accessibility, similar to adding wheelchair ramps and elevators for people with mobility disabilities, or adding closed captions to videos for the Deaf/HOH.
Those accommodations make it possible for people with disabilities to share important parts of life with people who are abled. And image descriptions make it possible for Blind/VI people to enjoy the important parts of life able bodied people experience.
And learning to write image descriptions will improve your writing. Here’s why
If you’re someone who struggles to describe the scenery you’re seeing in your head, it might be helpful to have some scenery visually in front of you to describe.
It can be a nature photography image, architecture, people, background setting, anything. Having the image in front of you and allowing yourself the time to describe it effectively and concisely will improve how you describe these images in your writing.
It’s important to note that you should avoid purple prose while writing these, keeping it from being too abstract. There’s nothing wrong with purple prose and if you enjoy writing it than by all means run wild with it. But, it makes things harder to understand, so avoid it in image descriptions.
Writing image descriptions for memes is a different experience.
Memes are abstract images and it takes knowing the context to understand the joke. And memes are evolving every day. We have a dozen new memes every month and they have their own evolution.
So you’re describing an image to someone who’s never seen your meme, and you have to learn to explain the context in a way that makes sense. It’s not like describing a tree or a building, where the person listening to these image descriptions has some experience with the tree or building and can use some sensory memory to fill in the gaps.
Eventually you learn how to describe images in new ways, how to introduce new and abstract concepts to someone who hasn’t experienced that type of humor much.
And having some experience explaining new, abstract concepts might be helpful if you’re trying to explain some unique world building context, I’m just saying.
Writing image descriptions for screenshots or articles, tweets, and other social media will teach you how to explain all the necessary information and prioritize what your reader should know first about what there is to see. Which, again, when in writing you should learn who to prioritize which details come first and how to build on them. These are probably the easiest images to describe, so they’re a good place to start.
The real reason why you should write image descriptions?
It’s accessibility. You’re literally providing someone a chance to join in on the experience of this post by including the image description. People who rely on image descriptions are left out of the loop when entire conversations are based on just one image that they can’t see and have no context for.
If you’ve ever used Tumblr on mobile and you see post after post where images won’t load due to data limitations, then you have a small idea of what it’s like to be left out of the loop on these posts.
There’s a screenshot of an article headline? Great, but it looks like a grey box to you, so you don’t even know what the headline says, just that people are arguing about subject headlines, timing, politics, and semantics.
There’s a screenshot of a tweet, but it’s a grey box to you so you don’t even know that it’s a tweet. All you see are the lines of people adding things like “queen” and “slay” and “ooh, tea” but again, no context for why everyone likes this image. Or they’re roasting the person in the screenshot, but again, you don’t even know that it’s a person.
That is the best way I can explain the experience of being left out of a conversation to sighted people. You have everyone’s reactions, but not what the conversation is about. Sometimes you don’t even have a reaction, just a series of eight grey slides that have no context added.
How to write an image description:
Most image descriptions are put in (paranthesis) or [brackets] and usually begin something like this:
(Image Description: photo of a grey and white kitten on a tree branch, looking at the camera with blue eyes. The kitten looks calm and unworried. End Image Description)
[Image Description: Distracted boyfriend meme. Distracted boyfriend is me, checking out re-rewriting parts you’ve already finished (the other girl) instead of looking at parts that still need to be written (the upset girlfriend) End Image Description]
[I.D. Screenshot of an article headline from The New York Times that says, “Jeff Bezos set to make another 100 billion off Amazon slave labor.” Author, Guy Steves. Includes photo of bald Jeff Bezos in a three piece suit and a second photo of a 40 million dollar mansion. End I.D.]
Please note, the above New York Times article is fake, obviously, I just made that up off the top of my head.
I don’t have photos, but those image descriptions get the idea across without the photo, don’t they.
Final Note:
I understand if you don’t want to add image descriptions all the time. I feel that way too. There are a lot of things I think about reblogging and then don’t because the image description is too much for me, like very long twitter threads or comic strips for example.
Most of the time, if I have an image I want to reblog, I put it into my drafts folder and add an image description and some tags before I toss it out into the void of tumblr.
An option you have is to go through the notes and look to see if someone else has already added an image description and you’ll reblog from them.
One thing you should absolutely not do is find an image that already has an image description and find a way to reblog or repost without the image description. It’s fucked up and I don’t respect anyone who does that. I don’t know why that happens, but I’ve seen people do that and it upsets me.
Thank you to all the people who express support to this blog and to the image descriptions. I’ve had wonderful bloggers add my image descriptions to their original post, I’ve had them reblog the original post (because there was a response they didn’t want on their blog) and copy/paste my image description with credit given. You’re all wonderful and I appreciate you.
