#how could i say something so controversial yet so brave

[graysonnightwing]

my approach to every character is "bisexual until proven lesbian or gay" and that's always worked very well for me until nancy wheeler. she's straight. she's exception that proves the rule. she is not eating pussy and that's okay for her. but not for any other character ever made thank you.

how can you be so controversial and yet so brave

(reposted from Twitter)

Hey so, have I ever told you about the time I was at an interfaith event (my rabbi, who was on the panel, didn't want to be the only Jew there), and there was a panel with representatives of 7 different traditions, from Baha'i to Zoroastrian?

The setup was each panelist got asked the same question by the moderator, had 3 minutes to respond, and then they moved on to the next panelist.

The Christian dude talked for 8 minutes and kept waving off the poor, flustered, terminally polite Unitarian moderator.

The next panelist was a Hindu lady, who just said drily, "I'll try to keep my answer to under a minute so everyone else still has a chance to answer." (I, incidentally, am at a table with I think the only other non-Christian audience members, a handful of Muslims and a Zorastrian.)

So then we get to the audience questions part. No one's asking any questions, so finally I decide to get things rolling, and raise my hand and the very polite moderator comes over and gives me the mic.

I briefly explain Stendahl's concept of "holy envy" and ask what each of theirs is.

(If you're not familiar, Stendahl had 3 tenets for learning about other traditions, and one was leave room for "holy envy," being able to say, I am happy in my tradition and don't desire to convert, but this is something about another tradition that I admire and wish we had.)

The answers were lovely. My rabbi said she admired the Buddhist comfort with silence and wished we could learn to have that spaciousness in our practice. The Hindu said she admired the Jewish and Muslim commitment to social justice & changing, rather than accepting, the status quo.

The Christian dude said he envied that everyone else on the panel had the opportunity to newly accept Jesus.

I shit you not.

Dead silence. The Buddhist and Baha'i panelists are resolutely holding poker faces. The Hindu lady has placed her hands on the table and folded them and seems to be holding them very tightly. Over on the middle eastern end of the table, the rabbi, the imam, and the Zoroastrian lady are all leaning away from the Christian at identical angles with identical expressions of disgust. The terminally polite Unitarian moderator is literally wringing his hands in distress.

A Christian lady at the table next to me, somehow unable to pick up on the emotional currents in the room, sighs happily and says to her fellow church lady, "What a beautiful answer."

anyway I love my rabbi to death and would do anything for her

except attend another interfaith event

SO!

As I promised I'm going to be elaborating about my "Ultraman Rising birthing imagery" post. And right now you either are going "Moony, what the fuck are you even talking about?" Or "How could you say something so controversial yet so brave?"

Well my friend, find out under the cut!

Let's roll the clip shall we?

This is the scene in question

First and foremost, Ken's entrance;

As you may have guessed these shots are supposed to symbolize the water breaking. Don't see it yet? Don't worry we're not done.

Secondly, these shots;

The way Ken is laying down, trembling and holding the baby close to his chest is very reminiscent of a person who just gave birth holding their baby close to their chest, for reference;

BUT IS NOT JUST THE POSE! It's the audio too! If you re-watch the videos you can hear Ken is audibly shivering and breathing heavily like he just did a lot of physical exercise. I know I know, it's because he was just swimming, but please keep in mind that all these factors, combined with Emi being just born, it makes the scene LOOK like he just gave birth.

Thirdly, Mina's medical analysis;

When you watch this scene, you quickly come to the realization that it is supposed to be a literal doctor checking on a baby right after they were born. In this case, Mina has no idea what a baby Kaiju should be like, but still makes an effort to help Emi and Ken.

Fourthly, the part where Emi is biting the collar timer;

Now if you go and rewatch the video (again) you can hear how Emi is making suckling noises. Now, I know this because I have been close to babies while they nurse, and they do make noises, not as exaggerated as in the movie, but they do. There's even a little "pop" sound when Ken pulls her away.

And that's about it! If you have something to add, please please please do! I'll be delighted to read your thoughts. And also it would make me look less insane lol.

+Bonus

See how Ken's hands close around new born Emi? 🥹

Kobeni from Chainsaw Man is a D&D Fighter

Okay yeah crazy people make dumb shit in D&D all the fuckin’ time, you can just say what the fuck on the internet. Some idiot made an article on how to play Cyberpunk Edgerunners characters in D&D what’s the big deal?

The big deal is that the D&D Fighter isn’t really...well represented in actual fiction. Controversial take, I know, but most uh...most mundane characters in fiction don’t really fit the bill of ‘Only good at combat but in a mostly superficial way that’s completely outclassed by the real shit of the setting’.

They’re not this:

This unique blend of...hell on earth that just isn’t present in actual fiction. One could say completely fucking unplayable. For those not in the know, this is D&D 3.5′s iteration of Fighter. For those who play 5e, this is basically the widely-mocked Champion Fighter subclass.

They’re proficient with all simple weapons, all martial weapons, all armor, and all shields including tower shields. They also have the following class skills: Climb (Str), Craft (Int), Handle Animal (Cha), Intimidate (Cha), Jump (Str), Ride (Dex), and Swim (Str)...with a grand total of 2 + Intelligence bonus skill points per level. That’s right, if you’re a Fighter of Average intelligence, you get to be okay in...2 skills.

And their saves are atrocious. If something even slightly scary shows up, the average Fighter is shitting themselves and running for the fucking hills.

This is obviously wildly fucking unrepresentative of any character in fantasy fiction. Too many demonstrate the ability to do more than just fight, and the characters who are famous for focusing on fighting are in series where being good at fighting means you can cut mountains in half or blow up the moon. And they’re all so...brave. Immune to fear even.

Enter God’s Chosen Failwoman

She’s a Public Safety Devil Hunter from the hit manga Chainsaw Man. She does this because her family made her, and it was either killing devils or prostitution.

Kobeni is a massive coward and in the first arc she’s introduced in with The Eternity Devil, she’s all too willing to simply kill Denji and give his heart up. When something scary is happening, Kobeni is the first to coward out.

Kobeni also isn’t very skilled. She quits public safety to go work fast food, and she can barely do that. Fast Food, considered entry-level work in this hellish economy due to how easy it is to teach someone to do it.

And yet, something curious.

When it comes to completely normal, completely mundane, completely comprehensible violence, Kobeni is unphased, and is insanely good at it. Sure, her partner got shot, but her reaction was to simply kill the shooter

and then go find the perpetrators

And when confronted by a frankly mundane demon attack, it doesn’t even touch her:

She’s also good enough with that knife, which for all intents and purposes is a completely mundane kitchen knife to slice clean through bone:

It’s groundbreaking. I’ve searched far and wide, but I’ve never found a character in fiction who perfectly lines up with everything that D&D 3.5 and even core Pathfinder 1e Fighter sets out to emulate. Someone who’s only good at violence, who’s insanely good with only one weapon, but can never break out of being completely mundane with their violence. Who, no matter how strong they get, how hard they work, is only human, with entirely human limits.

Here’s how you build Kobeni.

You need a high Strength and Dex. You need to be a Human. You need Weapon Finesse. You need to take Weapon Focus and Weapon Specialization, the full featline, with whatever knife of your choice (Weapon Focus, Weapon Specialization, Greater Weapon Focus, Greater Weapon Specialization, Melee Weapon Mastery). Take Lighting Reflexes. Take Light Armor Specialization.

Hell, if you want to more closely emulate how Kobeni functions, take the Combat Focus featline, which puts you into a sort of battle trance once you make a successful attack that lasts for about 10 rounds, which gives a bonus to will saves and other effects. Effects you can only get in Combat.

And guess what? You’ll be getting the genuine Kobeni experience. Being only good at completely mundane violence in a world that dramatically ramps up in stakes and moves past you.

Requesting a smutty Larissa x reader fic where the reader seems innocent, but Larissa finds out that the reader is a top with multiple tattoos and piercings.

My lovely anon I simply forgot to directly mention the piercings specifically. In fact I don’t mention them at all purely because in my mind r has her ear her seconds her belly button and maybe her nose pierced but it’s up your imagination bc everyone is different truthfully I don’t know much of piercing as I only have my ears done <3

Hidden meanings 18+

*Authors note~ I love this idea as I'm coming up with tattoo ideas for myself. I'm obsessed with meaningful ones that aren't completely obvious unless your someone very close to me. So the end of this is fully inspired by some thoughts of mine.*

Trigger warnings ~ tattoos, dominant r sub l daddy kink oral fingering strap degrading overstim if you squint

Prompt~ see ask^^

✬ ✬ ✬ ✬ ✬ ✬ ✬ ✬ ✬ ✬ ✬ ✬ ✬ ✬ ✬ ✬ ✬ ✬ ✬ ✬ ✬ ✬

Being a teacher with tattoos is always such a controversial subject. And as soon as you were introduced to tattoos you were obsessed. You'd gotten quite a few mainly hidden away by clothing, but none any less meaningful to you. For you, it was nice to decorate the body you were given and finally feel confident in your own skin. If a bit of ink and needles could do that then who was anyone else to moan. Also the fact you had a few piercings didn’t really please many of the parents. They were more visible than your tattoos yet you couldn’t see the issue.

Your ability for one was a slightly strange one, able to communicate with and see the dead but also being able to see things to come. That's how you knew those tattoos would be ones you'd love forever. So when others would say, "you'll regret it later" you just laughed internally knowing they were wrong.

Despite the tattoos you presented as a innocent young woman, and that's how your girlfriend, Headmistress of Nevermore, Larissa Weems thought of you. She'd not had the pleasure of seeing your additions to your skin as you hadn't been intimate yet. The day was approaching though, kisses lingering longer than the usual and hands roaming each others bodies over the clothing, desperately pawing at each other. You knew it would be time soon, but truthfully you weren't ready for Larissa to lose the innocent image she held of you. It's not that you didn't love who you are and how you are in that department, it was just the fear that she wouldn't see you as feminine anymore. Could even be worse than that, maybe she wouldn't like you being more dominant, her whole job screams dominance.

You and Larissa had a nightly ritual of snuggling up on her sofa in her office with a nice glass of fancy red wine and a roaring fire. It was lovely for you to decompress in such a manner and even then being in your girlfriends arms was something you never wanted to lose. Kisses began to be shared, and they weren't the innocent kind. The desire and need had been building up for months and now tonight it would finally come to head. And truthfully now I'm the moment, you couldn't be anymore ready. "Isa? Are you ready?" You murmured against her lips before nipping at her bottom lip, loving the reaction she gave you. She nodded and quickly found her way back to your lips. They were simply addictive.

You got brave and lead her to her bedroom expertly pinning her to her own bedroom door. Your lips making quick work of finding her pulse point and sucking it into your lips loving her moans and whimpers of need. Clearly, Larissa had assumed she would be dominant in this area of her life but she didn't seem to mind submitting here and now. It wasn't long before you stripped her of her work attire and left her in her underwear. Moving her from the door to the queen size bed you quickly straddled her hips, the power play of her being practically naked and you fully clothed was truly maddening.

Your dominance clearly driving the woman wild beneath you. She was whimpering and whining for more as you bestowed sweet kisses over her exposed skin. You truly wanted to make her feel like the most beautiful woman on the planet so tonight you'd take your time with her. Her silent plead for you to strip yourself of your own clothing was one you were happily to oblige with. Your tattoos were now on full display as you watched her eyes trail over them. Eyes darkening with lust. Your fears were pointless. She clearly loved what she was seeing and your dominance.

Soon enough you were both bare, and you had settled yourself in between her thighs, nips and kisses being placed up and down the inside of her thighs. The moment your tongue took a exploratory swipe of her soaked cunt, you couldn't help but moan at her taste. Diving back in you made sure to pay attention to her aching bundle of nerves and only when her sinfully delicious moans got louder did you slip two fingers in. With a harsh suck of her clit and a simple curl of your fingers that were now buried deep in her core she came with a loud cry of your name. You gently fucked her back from high loving how her cheeks were flushed and her chest heaved beneath you. "Oh my darling Isa, did you think we were done? I'm just getting started my dirty girl, you'll give me more won't you? Give daddy more?" You all put purred in her ear watching as her hips attempted to buck into you almost pathetically.

Larissa was eager to please you, and you had managed to force orgasm after orgasm from her until she was a whimpering, mewling mess absolutely desperate for you to strap up for her. She directed you on where to find hers, and you quickly adorned it before settling in between her thighs once more. You began to tease her leaking core with the fake cock as she pleaded with you for more like the whore she was for you. "Oh doll, do you need daddy to make you cum again? Haven't you had enough darling? No? You need daddy's dick? Then beg for me Isa, beg for daddy"

Beg she did. You'd never had a women beg you quite so intensely and yet you couldn't say you minded. No her constant pleading and whimpers of how good you were making her feel had you slipping into her pussy and bottoming her out. Your thrusts were hard and fast thrusting your cock in deeper with every thrust. Just when she didn't think you could go any deeper, stretch her any wider, you did just that. All she could do is be a good girl and take everything you were giving her.

With the strap you'd forced another two orgasms from the women, until she was begging you to stop, "no more daddy please hurts" she whimpered at you watching you pull out the cock now absolutely smothered in her cum. She couldn't help but whine at the empty feeling watching through half lidded eyes as you rid yourself of the strap and tossed it aside. Your own wetness dripping down your thighs, only then had she realised you hadn't been given the same high as her. In fact you'd given her many orgasms but not a single one for her. So despite her tired limbs and fussy brain she managed to tug you to sit on her face. She lazily licked at your core, sleepiness trying to over take her yet her stubbornness and determination making her fight to bring you to pleasure. It didn't take much, you we're impossibly turned on from fucking her into oblivion that you feel over the edge embarrassingly quick. Like the good submissive she made sure to bring you down and clean you up really good before whimpering one simple half coherent word. "Cuddle?" You happily obliged chuckling at her, as soon as she made her way in your arms she passed out cold. It wasn't long before she joined you in the land of nod either.

Sun beamed through the unclosed curtains, illuminating the room and casting a golden glow over your skin. Larissa had stirred awake a few moments before you and simple took the time to admire your naked form. You lay on your back, the tattoo on your under boob that simply stated "one breath at a time." For you that showed your struggle over the years and how often you forgot to just take it one breath at a time, all through your abusive childhood that was something you tried to live by. Another tattoo on display as a cat in a moon surrounded by stars. Each start holding an initial, Larissa couldn't help but linger here when she saw the I in a star. Was that for her? On your thigh there lay a blue lotus flower. From the flower dangled some mandala chains. It was your biggest tattoo yet you loved it. The tattoo you woke up to Larissa tracing was the on your stomach.

You stirred, feeling soft fingers trailing over the star sign constellation on your stomach mumbling "mmm Isa?" In your drowsy state. "It's me darling I'm sorry they are just so beautiful, I know they have meanings can you explain to me ?" She murmured and you groggily explained each tattoo allowing her to trace and explore the skin she hadn't had the chance to last night. An innocent conversation soon ended with the older women in between your thighs,teasing your soaked core trying map your body and what made you twitch, squirm and moan. You most definitely could get use to this.

In damnation I really don't feel bad how the mc ends up with a yandere, not because I'm a fan of yanderes, but that's fair for them because now they have to face a punishment that can be worse than death itself, besides the consequences of your actions.

Examples:

King of Hearts: Will have to walk on eggshells with Riddle forever when they're together.

Chief: Spend the rest of your life in fear that the people will discover the truth and rebel against Leona, in addition to becoming responsible for Leona not destroying the land.

Diviner: Stuck forever with Azul and will likely never be free to go where they please.

The way when I nervously laughed when I read this. Anon, this is a very unique take. Why would you say something so controversial yet so brave? I actually want to hear what others think about this one.

Now, you gotta remember that all of the mcs are different and their crimes are different too. Some are not so bad, some are pretty bad. So, who's to say that one of the mcs who committed one of the lighter crimes deserves what they got? Or, if you want to take it to the extreme, who's to say one of the mcs who committed one of the harsher crimes deserved more punishments? Or, you could just be like, why not punish them humanely without banishment? But then we wouldn't have the story.

Is the mc's crime fitting for their punishment? That's if you can even figure out what each mc did. Which I sort of mentioned in some previous posts.

sibling anon gets it

eldritch horror reader…hrghh <3

things like this are always kind of tough, because half of sagau is just people inserting themself into genshin for funsies. but:( unfortunately:( i’m not actually an eldritch horror, so i don’t have the official eldritch horror experience™️

but !! for the sake of this AU?? thing? let’s pretend that just being a human in our intricate world, makes us an eldritch horror compared to the simple genshin world.

i’ve read a thing about this before, how us being so detailed is so creepy to the characters. i’ll try to link a post with some credit in another ask!! bc it’s so cool

but basically, since our world is so full of detail, — (such as: seeing individual hairs on our heads, being able to see the details of our skin with a magnifying glass, microscopic bugs etc.) — and genshin is so flat in comparison, just seeing us would be EXTREMELY unsettling for the characters.

the adepti and gods would probably have a more robust mind, so it’s not like they’d be that disturbed. but the human characters? oog. ooga. it would be like seeing a psychedelic wizard cryptid.

i mean, can you imagine? your whole world, for your whole life, has been so simple. so easy to comprehend. and then THIS MOTHERFUCKER SHOWS UP?? THEY CAN SEE EACH HAIR ON OUR HEAD?? THERE’S WHAT IN OUR BLOOD? FINGERPRINTS???? for what purpose :(

or, we could actually just be an eldritch horror. bloodborne style. in which case, nah man. everyone is confused. if they can even see us.

if any, i guess the only character who would actually be able to see us would be nahida. she’s got a pretty big mind, right?

i’ll elaborate more coherently later !! yippee

-owl anon

1) “people inserting themself into genshin for the funsies” a) isn’t that the whole point of sagau b) why would you say something so controversial and yet so brave— 2) “i don’t have the official eldrich horror experience™️” if you can’t make it at home, store bought is fine

i remember a post about us being more Detailed than genshin chars, prolly the one you saw, and that is one way to take it! many many potential situations there, but you’d probably have to cope w all the pixel art graphics more than anything-

[queerfables]

#also it’s made me realize i do not have enough info to write a specific meta i’ve been turning over in my head BUT#i could probably do so if i rewatched s1 (thing i have avoided doing bc i wasn’t particularly impressed the first time)#(my hot take is that s2 is better than s1)#anyway

@azfellandco omg I'm so obsessed with this hot take how could you say something so controversial and yet so brave?

I loved season one and I think it was probably better constructed but if I'm really honest with myself, I found season two more fun.

[hematomes]

Saw someone say "I wanna get aventurine pregnant, because then he'd probably take care of himself " and it fucking took me out, real "how could you say something so controversial yet so brave " moment

i can't keep this ask in my askbox anymore ive been thinking abt this for half a year

[prettyboykatsuki]

“but I have no interest in Aki” HOW COULD YOU SAY SOMETHING SO CONTROVERSIAL YET SO BRAVE……

HEHFDHJSKJFD i think he is a swell guy!!! but my type in men does not lean that way bc he is quite nice and quite square. i LOVE him as a character i just dont have any like. feelings of want to be with him romantically or sexually

i dont have them for denji either because denji is Me. it's literally looking into a mirror. but i want to write for denji because i want to give him catharsis and love. i want to Heal him

i DO have lustful feelings and romantic ones for yoshida but idk if anyone would be interested in something like. romantic for him
