It's a little late, but here's part 4 to the RatQueen series!

“So, what do you do for a living, Richard?” Dexter asked, seated on a nice, white couch, holding a small glass of expensive scotch that the couple had supplied. He had to admit, while he still felt a little strange in such a grand, expensive home, the hospitality he’d been shown was helping him immensely to feel comfortable in such a new setting.

“I work with Carmen in an office building just a few blocks away. I trust she’s told you how well that job pays,” he smiled, gently gesturing to the room around them with his glass. “And I hear you’re a freelance exterminator? Must be nice to keep all the money your customer pays you, instead of entrusting someone with all too much power over you to give you a suitable paycheck.”

“Yeah, heh, it doesn’t pay as much as you’d think, but it’s enough to survive, I guess…”

“Oh, yes, that reminds me! Dexter, I was wondering if you’d like to stay the night after dinner? You’d be welcome to stay in my room, or a guest room if you prefer,” Carmen offered.

Dexter thought for a moment. He really only had his truck to sleep in, and at least getting to stay over after all this time might be nice. He really didn’t see any downsides, except…

“As nice as that is, if I did, I’d probably want to sleep with you, and not have Richard there, but I don’t wanna kick the guy out of his own bed, so…” he trailed off, getting the sense they understood.

“I guess I should have mentioned that me and Carmen don’t have an ordinary sleeping situation. We actually have separate, adjacent rooms and separate beds. The architect may have had tough nights in mind when designing the house but Carmen and I find it easier to sleep on our own. Not to mention the rooms being adjacent make it easier to change that should we be feeling extra affectionate,” Richard explained, watching how Dexter seemed to brighten up a bit at the news.

“Which means,” Carmen got to the point of the explanation, “if you want to sleep with me, you can, and you won’t even bother Richard.”

“Well, if that’s the case, then, yeah, I’d love to stay the night! I mean, hell, it’ll probably be the nicest night I’ve had in a while…”

“Wonderful! We’d both love to spend the extra time with you. In fact, that might give you more time to get to know our son.”

“Speaking of son, we should call him. After all, he’s going to have to meet Dexter tonight, since he is staying for dinner,” Richard pointed out, Dexter nodding in response.

“Ah, right, can you get him, darling?” Carmen requested, and, with a nod of his own, Richard rose from his seat and went to go get the kid.

“Are you alright, darling? I understand if this is a bit much for you,” she asked Dexter now that the two were alone. 

“Mhm, yeah, I’m fine. It’s kinda weird just being in a gigantic mansion with two people whose monthly income could probably buy my whole truck and everything in it, but hey, I’m honestly just proud that I was able to pull you at this point…” he assured her. He still felt a little self-conscious about his income but it was helpful that her and Richard weren’t being super judgemental about it.

She moved closer to him, taking his face in her hand gently, causing him to blush as she ran her thumb along his cheek.

“Good… but if you start to feel overwhelmed, please let me know. I want this to be a happy occasion for you, and everyone else, and that all starts with making sure you’re comfortable.”

“Don’t worry, I will… just… thanks for even giving me a chance…” he leaned forward, resting his forehead on hers, closing his eyes as he just let the softness of the moment envelop him. He always cherished how soft and calm these moments made him feel.

“You’re welcome…” she kissed his nose softly, causing him to blush even more, something she couldn’t help but find absolutely adorable.

“Uhmm…”

The two turned as they heard an audibly confused voice coming from beside the couch, greeted by the sight of Richard and Roy standing there, the younger having a very puzzled expression, his eyes locked on Dexter.

trick or treat!

You caught me off guard! I had not prepared for inbox trick-or-treaters! And I don't know if this is a writeblr trick-or-treat or a regular one, but luckily I have an idea that works for both.

Inspired by @ragsy I will snakepost, and all green snakes remind me of my character Haa, a shapeshifter from ABFHMM

So YOU get an emerald green tree boa! Happy Halloween!

I have a migraine so this is going to be very incohesive and short but I think the portrayal of Jinx and her mental illness in season 2 falls short because for her to be redeemed, her ‘negative’ symptoms must first be mostly erased without any actual recovery. I use the word erased because that is how it felt. It did not feel like a path to recovery of her managing her symptoms. Arguably, she should be in a worse place at the beginning of season 2, Isha or no Isha, as her Favourite Person and father died at her hands — that isn’t the sort of grief that’s invisible, not for someone like Jinx. I say this as someone with a Cluster B disorder and psychosis, in my opinion, the portrayal of hers is not good and is actively harmful to the view of mental illness in media.

It, whether intentional or not, falls into the trope of ‘negative’ symptoms being seen as inherently villainous, and once removed of those symptoms, only then can she recover and be free. While she was a villain in season one, her symptoms were still treated with sympathy from the narrative, and that made all the difference. I will also clarify that by negative symptoms I mean the symptoms that people view upon as inherently bad, the ones that aren’t palatable to many.

It’s unfortunate, as while I don’t have BPD in particular, I did still find myself connecting with Jinx in season one, but season two, I felt I had lost that connection with her.
