Rhythmic gymnastics is so amazing!

So I watched the qualifications yesterday and am watching the finals now and I did not expect all of the routines turned up to 12/10! (And at least some of the looks are new, right? Or am I just not remembering correctly?)

I am of course rooting for my German sisters, but all of them are so freaking amazing! I just love this sport so much, I wish it had more room on the Olympic stage like the other gymnasts, I would watch all the individual disciplines (and even more team combinations)

The one time I ever broke down in tears in the short time I did gymnastics was when I kneed myself in the eye trying to do a flip on a double mini. My coach told me gymnasts were of "strong mind, and strong body", so I needed to pull it together, and he'd get me some ice. When he returned from the ice machine without any, he informed me it was broken and I was free to return to crying.

Say what you want about the Olympics, but it’s the only thing that reminds me of the sports I’ve always wanted to try but haven’t (and shows me new ones that look hella fun)

Jazz: I need help.

Jason: I'll do it.

Jazz: You don't even know what I'm asking for.

Jason: Right, sorry, what do you need help with?

Jazz: I told my parents I have a boyfriend and lied for like a year that we were going steady. The thing is, they think it's time they meet him, and now the entire family is driving up to meet a man I made up!

Jason: Say no more, I'll gladly be your fake boyfriend!

Jazz: Don't worry about that. I already have a fake boyfriend lined up. I just needed you to play along with the story to not slip up in front of my parents and siblings.

Jason , trying not to cry: Cool. Cool. Cool, I can totally be a background character to your fake dating slow burn romance.

Jazz: Thanks, Peter! I knew I could count on you!

Jason: Who's the fake boyfriend, by the way? So I can act like I know him.

Jazz: This guy I met at the beginner gymnastics class I took in my first semester. He's really sweet. *Shows picture*

Jason voice cracking: That's Dick Grayson.

Jazz: You know him?

Jason: You can say that. I knew him when I was alive and going by a different name.

Jazz laughs thinking it's a joke: Is he your brother from another mother?

Jason: You be suprise...but ha ha ha, how would Peter White, lowly Gotham University student, possibly know a man like Grayson?

Jazz: Why are talking in the third person?

Jason strain voice: Getting into character.

How did you learn to draw? Especially anatomy? What resources would you recommend for a beginner? I love, love your art. It is so beautiful

I've never used specific resources, just sorta been drawing since forever and just drew inspiration from other artists, games, shows, etc

Anatomy-wise, there's a more detailed reply buried somewhere in my asks but the TL;DR is I both "consume" a lot of artstyles that rely on precise anatomical knowledge AND used to watch and draw a lot of athletes, specifically gymnasts and contortionists when I was a kid. Drawing extreme poses has always been loads of fun to me and I feel like that's what helped me the most other than straight up just learning what muscles and bones are where

Hiii i’m new here so let me guide you through my chan brain rot so you can decide if this request is worth it or not☝️🤓

Ok so i’ve been thinking about bff Chan picking up fem swimmer!reader from late night practice and getting there a bit early so she’s still in the pool. He gets horny seeing her legs (i’m a simp for swimmers’ legs IM SO SOREY) and soaking wet and they fuck in the dressing room (just bc i think pool sex is too messy but this part is wtv for me).

Honestly i just think Chan is such a but/legs guy, i imagine him going insane between them and fucking the mc so hard to fulfill his horny and sentimental needs towards her.

- 🎃 (pumpkin anon if i may??)

Swim Practice

Oh lovely, I've got Chan brain rot 24/7 so let's get into it!!! And of course you can be pumpkin nonie! Sorry it took me so long! 💕

❣ Summary: Chris, your best friend who picks you up after late night swim practices. Chris, your best friend who might just have a thing for your legs. ❣  ❣ Word Count: 1.2k ❣ Warnings: Smut, fluff, slight humor, unprotected sex, slight public sex [locker room], slight leg kink [Chris], Reader knows how to swim, Reader is also kinda sassy, Chris being a slightly annoying best friend [lovingly] ❣  ❣ Female! Reader [No use of Y/N] | You/Your pronouns ❣  ❣ Additional Tags: Chan is referred to as Chanstopher, Channie, and Chris, Reader is referred to as Littlest Mermaid and Baby, Chris' dad is mentioned once ❣ Stray Kids Masterlist ❣ General Masterlist

Littlest Mermaid 🪸: Channie! You’re still free to pick me up after practice, yeah? Chanstopher🐺: Yeah, I’ve got you Chanstopher🐺: What time do you get out again? Littlest Mermaid 🪸: I’ve got the place booked till 10 Chanstopher🐺: Late practice again? Littlest Mermaid 🪸: Mhm- Mr. Bahng told me I could since all the little kiddos are in their summer lessons Littlest Mermaid 🪸: I owe you big time I swear!! Chanstopher🐺: Yeah yeah, I’ll see you later!

Chris checked the text chat one last time as he pulled open the door to the community center, checking the time at the top of the screen - 9:34 PM, sure he was a bit early, but there was no way you were actually using the whole reservation time.

You and Chris had been best friends since he accidentally pushed you into the pool during your beginner swim lessons, and when he tried to help you out, you’d used all your 9-year-old strength to pull him in instead - from then on, you both have been attached to the hip. Where he was taking swimming lessons to compete in the local swim meets, you were taking swimming lessons because it was either that or gymnastics, according to your parents.

Still, despite your differing reasons for being in the swim classes - proudly led by his parents - you two managed to turn an unfortunate meeting into a friendship that would stand the test of time; from supporting him in his swim meets to supporting him in award shows, you remained a constant in his life.

Of course, he did his best to reciprocate the same support through sending you a wall of text when he learned you’d be taking up swim meets casually in your own division, and staying up late to watch the recordings of said swim meets that his mom and sister sent on your behalf. 

It was only when he went home one time two years ago that the tradition of him picking you up from late practices began; one surprise pop-up turning into him being your designated ride for as long as he was in Australia.

Walking down the all-too-familiar halls, the smell of chlorine slowly seeped into the air before he reached the double doors of the pool room, various warnings and rule lists plastered across the front. He pushed through the doors, the sound of splashing water proving him wrong as he spotted your form floating in the shallow end - eyes closed and limbs splayed out like a starfish, most likely relaxing after a few laps.

Smirking to himself, Chris snuck toward the edge of the pool you were closest to before bending down, putting his hand in the slightly cold water, and splashing water in your direction - laughing as you slipped back into wading.

“What the actual-?!” Wiping your face free of the droplets - ironically making your face even wetter in the process - your fiery glare landed on a familiar face, “Christopher! What the hell was that for?!”

“You looked too peaceful,” he taunted, tongue peaking out of the side of his mouth before a cheeky grin brightened his features.

You rolled your eyes, dipping your hand in the water before flicking some water back in his direction, “Oh whatever - what’re you doing in here anyways? You usually wait outside.”

He shrugged, “I didn’t think you’d still be in the pool - figured I’d just come in and wait this time, haven’t been inside since last year, you know?”

Puffing your cheeks, you waded your way over to the edge before resting your arms on the tiles, “I guess.. Give me one final lap then we can head out, okay?”

“Knock yourself out - we’re still on for Hungry Jacks after, yeah?”

“Of course! There’s no way I’d pass up food after a practice - or food in general.”

With that, he watched as you shuffled your way through the deep end before swimming toward the other half of the pool where they kept laned off for swim meets.

He had to admit, part of him missed competing and the rush of adrenaline when the buzzer went off and all he had to think about was ‘go’, but watching you set up for a lap made that bitterness just a bit sweeter - knowing that you were able to grow from a kid who claimed swimming like a frog was the best form, to earning a few medals in the breaststroke and butterfly stroke category.

The sound of splashing broke him from his reverie, his eyes locking onto your form as you broke into a breaststroke - simple, effective, a good choice to leave off with after hours of practicing with almost perfect technique.

By the time you had turned to finish out your lap, he was already walking toward the pool chair that had your towel draped over your bag, snatching the cloth in preparation for your grand exit.

Oh, how grand it was.

What he wouldn’t give to be the beads of water dripping down the curve of your hips and thighs, skin glistening under the fluorescent lights of the pool room as you pulled yourself out of the pool with hard-earned strength.

Now that you were up close, he could finally notice how your bathing suit was snugly hugging your shape, each bead of water acting like glitter to catch his eye effortlessly - well, almost effortlessly, as he thrusted the towel in your direction without a moment’s notice.

“Uh- Here!”

You took the towel gratefully, shooting him an earnest smile as you took the time to wipe down your arms and chest, “Thanks - just give me a second to rinse off and change, then we can head out.”

Chris meant to answer you, truly he did, but all thoughts of a reply fizzled out into nothing as his eyes began the exciting trail down your body once more - god, he never noticed how wonderfully shaped you were until now, especially your legs.

Curvy, sculpted, from your thighs to your calves, he could only imagine how strong they were - how they’d feel wrapped around his head.

He was a simple man, if he found someone attractive, it was because of a multitude of things, but those legs - your legs, were making him feel like he was a teenager going through puberty again.

“Channie?”

His eyes snapped up to yours, immediately clocking the sparkle of humor mixing with something unfamiliar - it made his stomach flip.

“I could use some help getting out of my bathing suit, if you don’t mind?”

Of course, as a great best friend, who was he to deny you help when you asked?

He could only assume that he was an even greater best friend from the way you were quivering underneath him, your hands holding onto the edge of the towel-covered bench for stability as he fucked you into next week.

“Fuck, look at you,” he groaned, one hand keeping your right leg pressed against his chest while the other gripped your hip, bathing suit laid in a wet heap somewhere along with his sweats and underwear. “You’ve got no clue how many times I’ve dreamt of this.”

Your cunt clenched around him, a shuddering moan falling from your lips as you nodded, “S-Same- fuck, wanted you so bad, Chris- E-Every time you visit.”

“You-” An incredulous scoff escaped him, lips pulling into a cocky smirk, “You waited until now to make a move? Baby, I could’ve been fucking this sweet pussy ages ago?”

You wanted to reply, maybe offer him an apology of some sorts, but his thrusts didn’t let up and the sight of him ducking his head down to press a fleeting kiss to your ankle made your brain evaporate.“It’s fine - we can make up for lost time, yeah?” Dropping his hand to the back of your knee, he pushed your leg up to your torso, mirroring the act with his other hand and your other leg, “After here, after Hungry Jacks, I’m spending the rest of the night with you, between these gorgeous legs of yours.”

Can I just say, as a former sexworker, that Angel Dust's choreographies are bland as shit? The guy is supposed to be the most popular pornstar in Hell, and his choreography/dances are the blandest, skill-less, most simple basic bitch shit I've ever seen. If you start learning (pole) dancing already having some skills (good rythm, having done gymnastics in your youth), you can achieve these dances in two sessions or less.

The guy is supposed to having been in hell since the 40s I believe, and this is the best he can do?? Wth?

I know it's because Raphielle is the choreographer and they are basing this on what they do, but it SHOWS they just know beginner shit.

It's not just Angel Dust who suffers for it either. Raphielle is an absolutely terrible choreographer.

I love when athletes from very only slightly different fields try each others sports

And my favourite when I was still on tiktok was men and women gymnasts teaching each other basics of their sports

And some of the men in the comments started being assholes about the women not being able to do basic mens gymnastics very well and one of the dudes spoke directly to them on the account and was like "Hi. Yeah they are basics. For me. Because this is what I have trained my body to do. They have not. I am not any better at their basics because that is what they have trained their bodies for and I have not. And actually for beginners they are doing extremely well and we're really impressed with them and also you're a pathetic asshole"

He basically went on to educate that this wasn't a gender divide it's a divide in what they prioritise in differently in training for what is basically different sports and exploring those differences like this was really fun and a great way to really understand and respect the skills of the other group

Anyway that made me really happy and I just remembered it

Library day! Sometimes broadening your reading and challenging yourself means picking up a book on a totally foreign topic. I decided to pick up a book on how to do a gymnastic split for very stiff beginners, along with the giant hulking chinese history book i planned on getting. (Also got an alpine cookbook and a manual on furniture design.)

The history book is fascinating and i read 30pg at the library, but as soon as i got home i was so excited by the splits manual i got right down on the floor in jeans to try the instructions! Then I realized i wouldn't be getting anywhere without changing into more appropriate clothes 😅

Try not to be too paranoid about if other's comments on your attacks mean they secretly hate your art or something. Not everyone is playing mental gymnastics with you or has bad intentions.

I personally like to point out specific things in art I really really like. Not because I dont like the art, but because I like telling people the specific thing they did really good at. When I was a beginner artist, being told what specifically made my art appealing helped me find and develop my art style. So I like receiving and giving specific compliments. :3

the thing that a lot of anti-porn or anti-sex work sentiments seem to misunderstand is that a lot of the issues that get contributed to porn consumption are actually the result of porn being the only way a lot of people receive an education about sex at all

porn is entertainment. it is at its core an idealized and exaggerated version of sex. we shouldn’t expect people to learn healthy relationships from disney movies, or conflict resolution from wrestling, or healthy beginners exercising techniques from olympic gymnasts.

when porn is having to fill the gap left behind by a society that refuses to talk about sex like it’s a part of life and restricts sex education as a result, of course people are going to end up with a warped view of what sex is supposed to be like. and porn looks fun but it’s made to entertain, so it leaves out the technical stuff. the conversations, the discussion of boundaries, the safety education. all of that stuff is set to the side to get to the meat (haha) of it because porn was never meant to be your teacher and isn’t a replacement for learning about how to have a healthy sexual relationship and shouldn’t be expected to be
