No matter your gender or sexuality engie hits that hotspot only the daddiest of daddies hit !

Heavy: rare breed of bear enjoyer, probs an older sibling that wants to make the older sibling ( tired, unhydrated and slighty (( extremely)) in need of therapy) pair. Probably not a huge shipper since you view HeavyMedic as more of a platonic pairing, or you are of the rarest Medicx Reader x Heavy poly sandwich. Please dont hug him too tight, hell hug tired and make your eyes pop like a cheap pop eyed toy.

Demo: contrary to popular belief, you are not a bbc enjoyer/seeker, Demoman isnt just a sextoy to you. He is just the only level headed person you see in a team of morons ( for u) or manchildren with murder tendencies and well, JUST LOOK AT HIM, HE IS BUILT WITH ABBS LIKE A WASHBOARD AND LOVES HIS MOM, HE IS NOT HUSBAND MATERIAL.

RESIDENT EVIL VILLAGE ( or the bimbofied RE4)

Lady Alcina Dimitrescu: a cis male/ a sapphic soul/trans,enby vagabond who respectfully wants to drown while motorboating he absolute units of bazoongas. Perhaps slight size kink and perhaps a person who doesnt mind a good blood slurped by their F! S/O if their tumm had the ramblies. Please dont go overboard, or youll enter the unholy assemblange of vore/stuffing kink irl

Donna Bienevento: creepypasta kid, you unironically got spooked first time you read Jeff the Killer.

You have tried some kinds of handcraftmanship and might even have some hobbies that involve handiwork. I applaud you, but please dont give the basement FEOTus monster your choccy milk, itll have the zoomies and knock of angies card-castle.

Salvatore Moreau: the epitome of I can fix him! peeps, probably slight hurt/comfort enjoyer. You saw how dirty all the other treat him and you crave to make fish man happy. Both feet in monsterfuckening domain, unironically want to do the dirty while he is at monster form. Maybe you saw the Shape of Water and your brain did the thingy, but oh well, please continue on and make the lord of the reservoir the happiest fish in the sea!

Karl Heisenberg : you slimy, daddy kinked bAsterds, cant we have one game with a slight rat man with a good VA without yall flocking to him like lycans to his factory for french toast scraps??? slight bdsm enjoyer, or person who wants metal rat man happy and softened out like a soviet made breadcutter blade after a top tier professional restoration. Either way, please handle with care he may cry if you hug him the good way

The duke: an absolute chad who may or may not want to drown all your sorrows to a large, beautiful, suave man hug ( or man-thing, you never know.) You seriously deserve the world, because you be pumping fics faster than a heated political debate on Reddit. Also probably a slight hand kink, we all show those monsters at the Shadow of Rose DLC.

So this was absolutely inspired by @jkthinkythoughts idea and thus I was like ‘what would the Criminal Minds episode based on Norwich look like’ and I had an idea. All the trigger warnings for discussion of CSA.

First a caveat. This is a world in which, basically due to a series of butterfly effects that include (but are definitely not limited to) ‘bi poly triad marriage’ the world changes for the absolute better. Not a perfect world, but the kindest possible world - this includes the fact that the Europeans got kicked out of the Americas and a world without 500 years of colonialism and empires. (a friend gave me some fantastic world building about the Americas specifically I need to find it/ask again). These aren’t my stories to tell, a lot of them but the US as we know it doesn’t exist. But, assuming framework of Criminal Minds episode:

-the team are called because of the discovery of CSEM material that suggest there was a single victim over a number of years but they can’t trace either the victim or the unsub.

(One thing I think is that Norwich was very single victim focused on Thomas - oh sure, he’ll torture people in the course of his work but part of his self image is about how he’s totally an artiste (tm) polishing a singular jewel for himself/a Roman Emperor with a single special favourite rather than being Some Common Whore Monger. (Please note this does not prevent him taking advantage of being a brothel))

-It turns out the victim/survivor is actually the President and the the First Ladies husband and the UNSUB is like, the chief of staff for the Senate Minority Leader. This is exactly as OH FUCK as one might think.

-(listen I would not want to be the person who has to prevent the President and First Lady from murder okay)

Minguo Military Husbands

Here we have Zhang Zhehan as Ming Xia from Demon Girl and Gong Jun as Fang Yan from Shining Like You. This is technically my fourth Fang Yan fig (yes, I'm as surprised by this as you are!), but this is our very first time with Ming Xia.

Full disclosure, I have not watched Demon Girl yet, as I have bumped my very slow plod through Legend of Yunxi for The Blooms at Ruyi Pavilion, of which I have gotten through exactly none of yet. [In further full disclosure and to make excuses on my own behalf, I must say that I watched Gong Jun sing with He Laoshi on New Year's Eve and was so impressed and inspired. I thought, you know what, if Junjun can learn how to sing, I can learn Chinese. So just like Junjun, I'm getting better with practice, but the daily studying does cut down on the TV time.]

So all that being said, I know the basics of Demon Girl. First, that Ming Xia is the police chief of a small town set in the Chinese Republican era (think 1920s-1930s), and second, that Zhang Zhehan in Minguo period costume is (like Zhang Zhehan in any costume at all) very, very pretty. Here's some of the inspiration for this fig:

Gorgeous, isn't it? I'm a big fan of the guzhuang (ancient style costumes like Word of Honor) costumes but these are just beautiful. The pin waves in the hair! Love it.

Fang Yan, if you recall from this post, is an arts school college student. Shining Like You is memorable not only for the dance number highlighted in that post, but also the delightful zebra costume dance number you can see here and here. Continuing to draw from the evident gold mine that is Fang Yan's college acting oeuvre, we have him in this screen test:

This is from episode 22, which is incidentally also about how old Gong Jun looks in this show. The screen test in the show is super cute because as you can tell, he's doing Serious Acting Business facing the camera, and then as soon as they stop filming he's all happy and smiley as in pic 3 there.

No, I haven't watched this show either, I'm sure there's an episode where he's brandishing a gun sideways rather exactly like this, but I'll have to get to it at some point.

Both of these figs have completely detachable hats. There's no slot or divot where the hats fit - you just drop them on top of the fig's head and arrange how you like.

I couldn't get Fang Yan's hat to stay on his head while I moved him around, so I used a large chunk of Museum Putty to get it to stay. I'll do a picture roll here of him without his hat:

And then another with the hat...

I really like the motion in his jacket and, naturally, his expression. You know I'm an absolute sucker for that sideways smirk!

Oooh Ming Xia looks great in that uniform! I love all the beautiful gold detailing, especially on the sleeves and collar.

When Ming Xia is done menacing his hat there, we have something else very special to show you - his cape!

His cape was a separate add on you could purchase if you wanted to. Of course, I wanted to. What a cool cape! For $2.54, a bargain. If Ming Xia didn't want it (he does), some other fig no doubt would. I upped the exposure quite a bit on the cape in an attempt to show you the details - it's actually a beautiful true black.

Here he is in all his glory! I put him on a fig stand to get a little bit of extra clearance for his cape.

He's SO CUTE.

Yeesh, I'm just about at the pic limit, so let's get a final shot of them both for you:

And the box cards, of course!

I love them! I'll take more Ming Xia figures by the bucketload, please and thank you!

Material: PVC for the figs, plastic for the hats, and cotton (maybe a liiiiitle bit of poly blend in there) for the cape

Fig Count: 212

Scene Count: 18

Rating: Why rather dashing, if I may say!

CHAPTER TWO. ready for cairo?

“MARC STOP!” you squealed as he threw you over his shoulder. Your white dress flowing over his back and his laugh filling the air as he ran up the stairs of the hotel. You felt bad for the other guests.

The two of you reach the elevator as he sets you down again, pulling you into his arms, bridal style. Which is how he should’ve been carrying you this whole time. He smiles and pecks your lips, put you pull his head back, your mouths connecting for a short moment.

His whisper is hot on your ear as he speaks, the elevator finally reaching your floor, “You don’t know how beautiful you are, my Princess.”

You smile, trying your best to look away from his eyes.

“What?” He questions you, his gaze soft as he walks the two of you to your room. You’re still in his arms and his grip on you tightens.

“You’ve never called me that before.” Your eyes meet his again and his eyebrow quirks.

“Oh… I’m sorry, did you not like it?” and your eyes widen.

“No. No. I liked it, a lot.” You bite your lip and Marc’s grin only grows wider; you can practically see all of his teeth.

“Then I’m gonna keep calling you my Princess, until the day we die.” He confirms, “Now let me set you down so I can get the key from my back pocket. I know your feet hurt, but I did offer to trade shoes.”

You laugh but pout nonetheless, “Fine… I guess I can bare a minute.” You tap his chest, “I just wanna get you in bed.”

Marc presses another kiss to your lips as he sets you down and quickly pulls the key from his pocket. In one swift motion, he unlocks the door, presses a kiss to your lips and pulls you into the door, shutting it behind you. His hands meeting the back of your dress, fumbling with the zipper.

You pull away with a small giggle, “Marc, baby, you can’t undo the dress like that, unfortunately.” Slowly you turn your back and Marc’s hands rest on the back.

Your dress is long and white and a little puffy, the top has got a corset and a sweetheart neckline, and two strands of material hang off of your shoulders. Marc is tempted to rip it off, but one day he knows you’re going to want to give it to your child. You told him that the night he proposed.

Marc pulls down your zipper and the dress falls onto the floor creating a large pool of white, a kiss landing on your shoulder, “You are absolutely stunning, my Princess.”

You stood in the storage unit with Marc. You were mad at him. Mad at him for leaving you. Not telling you about Steven. You were mad about him having the scarab and as much as you loved him. You were angry, and you had every right to be. It finally bubbled over the surface when you got here. You were holding it back for the sake of both of you.

You were finally changed in a pair of combat boots, a tank top and combat pants. You were comfortable and ready for Cairo. But as you packed your duffle bag, all Marc could do was stare at you.

“What?” You snapped at your husband.

He smirks, “Feisty…”

“No. Pissed.” You raise your eyebrows.

Marc walks up to you, taking your arms in his hands, “What’s wrong, my Princess?” He questions softly, his eyes gloss over your figure.

“Marc… you’re really going to ask me what’s wrong?” You hit his hands away from you, “Okay. I know I said this earlier, but I had every right to know about Steven! Fifteen years, Marc. Fifteen… I also had a right to know about the Scarab too! I’ve spent night after night sitting up and reading, searching for any sign that would help us reach Ammit and you’ve had it the whole time?!”

He sighs, shaking slightly, “Okay. I know I fucked up, but I was just trying to prote-”

“PROTECT ME?” You question, “I haven’t needed protection since the first time we fucking met. But you were on the other side of that, weren’t you?”

It was a low blow to say that to Marc, but you were right. That was one of the only times you needed protection in your whole entire life and Marc was the reason for it. He led his partner straight to the dig site.

“Wow…” He looks at you, his face full of disappointment, “That was fifteen years ago and you’re really going to throw that at me? I’m protecting you from Harrow, I’m protecting you from the bad things of this world and I know… I know you have Sekhmet, but one day, she’s not gonna be there. One day her and Khonsu will just disappear… I don’t wanna think about losing you.”

“Marc…” You trail off, “You’re not gonna lose me. But i’ve worked night and day for something that you’ve already known this whole time. You could’ve called me. Let me know.”

“I know… I just- I just… I dunno, I thought it was for the better.”

You shove another shirt and gun into the duffel bag, “I’ll be in the car.” You sigh, leaving the storage unit. Slamming the door behind you.

“Marc. Let me take control.” Steven speaks up.

“Really?” Marc scoffs, “You really think she’s gonna wanna talk to us?”

“Not to you.” Steven sasses, rolling his eyes as Marc looks at the reflection.

Marc grunts shoving something into the duffle, “No.” He sighs, “If I give you the body, there’s no telling what the fuck you’ll do… if you’ll leave, if you’ll abandon us and this mission.”

“I won’t.” Steven says, “I promise.”

Marc zips up his bag, “Fine, but I give you five minutes with her… that’s all.”

Steven pulls the duffle bag up and walks out of the storage unit he had once run out of. It was where you and he met, and he keeps thinking back to earlier that day. How his life had changed so much in the span of three days. It was tiring, exhausting, but he was finally getting answers to his strange life. Steven sees you sitting in the car, and you know it’s not Marc without a second glance. He doesn’t carry himself like that, like Steven does. Steven slouches and somehow looks much more tired, even though they have the same bags underneath their eyes.

Steven throws Marc’s duffle bag into the backseat and shuts the door before sitting in the front. You’re in the driver’s seat, thank god. Steven didn’t want to tell you he didn’t have his license; it was kinda embarrassing.

“Hey, Steven,” You mutter quietly as you start the car, driving to the airport where the two of you would meet someone to help you fly to Egypt. It was an okay drive, forty minutes in the same direction, with a couple of twists and turns.

Steven’s hesitant to speak at first, but he does, “I’m sorry about Marc.” His accent is a little bit jarring at first. You knew it was coming but it’s strange, and different and it sounds quite nice.

You sigh, “You don’t need to apologise on behalf of him…” You trail off, “‘S Not your fault,”

Steven shrugs as he watches the streetlamps, “Doesn’t mean I can’t be sorry about it. What he did wasn’t right.”

You’ve got one hand on the wheel as you turn to look at Steven for the split of a second, “Yeah, I just wish he would’ve told me about all this… I’ve said that like twenty times in the past hour but it’s strange... no offense.”

Steven chuckles, “None taken, believe me, I was a bit shocked when I found out I had another person living with me… In my body.”

“You didn’t know?” You question him softly.

He shakes his head, “No… I didn’t. I knew that days went by quicker. That I would wake up not knowing where I was. That I would forget things or that I felt like I would blackout in between the days that went by.”

Your free hand rests on Stevens, “I’m sorry, that must’ve been really difficult.”

He nods, “Yeah, yeah, it was, couldn’t go on a date. Couldn’t keep a fish alive.” He sighs, “But I’ve got you now which is considerably better. You’re a nice person, Y/n.”

You squeeze his hand before removing it, “So are you, Steven… one day you’ll find an amazing girl.”

He blushes a little bit, “You think so?” There’s a tinge of hope in his voice.

“I know so.” You grin as his heart does backflips, he feels butterflies in his stomach.

Marc stares out the window and you notice the shift in the way they sit, “Marc?” You question, your voice tainted in anger.

“Yeah, it’s me… don’t get too fuckin’ excited.”

You and Marc stand in the middle of the desert, “Someone I can trust.” He says softly, but he shakes his head, “Right because I can definitely trust you.” He scoffs.

Your eyes widen, “Says the person who tried to fucking kill me!!” You scream, tears start rolling down your face, “Do you know how lucky we are to be alive, Marc? I don’t think you do… and if I’m willing to trust you, what does that say about me?”

Marc’s eyes turn to a glare, “That doesn’t matter.”

“Doesn’t matter?” The laugh that comes out of your throat is dry and you gulp trying to feel your throat, “Are you fucking stupid?”

Marc’s silent for a moment as you fall onto the sand, he follows in suit, “Sorry…” He apologises, “My partner just shot me and left me for dead, I’m allowed to be a little…”

“Shaken?” You finish his sentence, and he nods, you grab his hand, running your finger over it, grazing his skin, “We both are.”

Hesitantly, you lean into his body and tears roll down your face, Marc pulls you tighter into him and lets you cry for however long you need. But the two of you needed to get out of there. You definitely needed to leave.

“We gotta go.” Marc voices, his hand patting your back, “Raul could… he could come back.”

“That’s his name? Raul?” You question, your throat still dry.

Marc nods, “The guy who shot us dead.”

You look straight into Marc’s eyes, “One day Marc… one day I’ll kill him. I'll shove a knife into his heart or a bullet or make it slow… but I want him to feel the pain I felt when I was lying here in the sand. I need him to feel it. I need it.” You're now crying, clear, salted tears running down your face.

Marc wipes a tear from your face before taking your hands in his, “…and I’ll help you if we find him again.”

“Believe me, I’m not.” You keep your hand on the wheel, focused on the road.

“For what it’s worth, I am sorry.” Marc says quietly, his head resting against the window. Your eyes flicker over to him for a second.

You sigh, “It’s whatever… at least I know now. Unless there are any more secrets you wanna air out. Now would be a great time.”

He shakes his head, “Nothin’, I’m officially done with secrets, my Princess.”

You try to fight of a smile, “Good.” With your free hand you turn on the radio, “Anything new with Raul?” you ask him.

Marc’s breath hitches against the air, “No. We’ve been looking for him since we left that desert. Shouldn’t we just give it up.”

“Marc, I just forgave you for what you’ve been doing, don’t make me mad again.” You heave air, “I told you that night I wanted to kill him, and I will. As far as he’s concerned, we’re dead.”

“What if he’s not even alive anymore?” Marc questions you, his hand now resting on your thighs, playing with your skin.

“Then I’ll find out who did it and ask them how they killed him. Make sure he died an unworthy death.”

Marc nods, “Okay, I’m not leaving your side, you know that right? I’m just trying to help us get past this, get through this.”

You return the gesture, “I- I know… That’s why I love you.” You smile softly at him before turning your head back to the road.

He returns your smile, “I love you too.”

You grip the wheel with your other hand, both hands now securing the car, “So… Steven is interesting, he’s quite nice.”

“Glad you like him,” Marc grumbles, “I’m sure you two have a lot to talk about with that archaeology stuff, I know I never really got that.”

You snicker, “No, but you try your best to everyday and I applaud you… Does he front a lot?”

Marc sighs, “Where do you think I’ve been for six months? I let him have his life and during the night I took over the body, did what I needed to do… but he became aware of me recently and I tried not to let that happen because, between you and me, he’s a good guy, innocent.”

You nod, “I sensed that… When I met him, I got that he didn’t really know much about you or your life. Our life together.”

He grabs the bottle of water that sits in the cupholder beside him, “Nothing.” Marc leaves the conversation at that, and you decide not to pry anymore.

“So, do you remember Layla?” You question Marc and he nods quickly.

“Yeah, I do.” Marc sighs, “Dad died that night, right? We went to the funeral?”

“Yeah, we’ve stayed in touch since, we’ve gotten closer over these past few months… she’s a history buff just like her dad, but fifteen years with a guilty conscious.” You let out a dry chuckle, “She’s still torn up about her dad, talks about him all the time and we told her we weren’t there, so we have to hold up that story.”

He nods, “Okay… but why are you bringing her up?”

You sigh, “She’s living in Egypt right now, I told her we were going… she deals with a lot of stolen relics, black market deals, all that kind of stuff.”

“Right. So, if we need someone…?”

“If we need someone to track down an item for us, she’s our girl.” You make a right turn, “She also got us a plane… so I better text her a thank you. Actually,” You peel your phone from your back pocket, “Could you do it for me?”

Marc nods, “’Course.”

He turns on your phone and makes contact with the lock screen and he almost starts crying, he forgot how much he loved this picture. The two of you were in Greece, on a mission for Khonsu and Sekhmet and the two of you had arrived a few days before you were due to go and complete said mission, so you spent a day on the beaches. The two of you under the sun, laying on a towel Marc’s arm around you, shirtless, kissing your forehead as you nuzzle into his chest. He took the photo, so it was quite far up, but your smile said it all as you laughed.

He slides the lock screen up, typing in your password, “I like your wallpaper.” He says as he slides into your message app.

You feel flush, “Well, it’s a good photo.” You shrug, “We look really happy.”

“We do look really happy,” He confirms as he sends a text to Layla saying thank you for the plane like you had asked, he shuts your phone off, “You not happy?”

“No… I am. I know I’ve been really mad the past couple hours, but it’s just… I’m so glad to see you home. To see you here, in person, I haven’t changed the bedsheets in six months. Sekhmet keeps complaining about the smell but I’m not sure she can smell it.”

Marc laughs from his belly, “Six months? Why!”

“Because you weren’t there, stupid! I kept spraying the pillow with your cologne too and wearing every shirt you had in your closet.” You cringe at yourself, “God, I missed you.”

“Hey, it’s okay… It’s not that strange. I was gone for a really long time. Half a year. You were allowed to miss me, my Princess.” He places his hand on your thigh and you feel your skin warm.

“I really missed you, Marc.” You feel a tear slide down your cheek.

“I know, my Princess, I know… I’m sorry.”

“What matters is that you’re here now.” You sigh, “What also matters, is that we’re here. Ready for Cairo?” You question your husband.

“Ready for Cairo.”

[displacedcreativity]

There’s obviously a lot of chatter going on about Cruella and 101 Dalmatians and ooohhh my god errebody a lot of you don’t know the source material and I really. I really need to share a nut shelled version of the two novels (yes there’s TWO) because it’s absolutely wild from start to finish and it starts out innocent enough and then just escalates from there.  Copy pasting from my twitter thread cause as much as I love this roller coaster I don’t want to type it again HERE WE GO: To start in the original 101 Dalmatians novel, Mr. and Mrs. Dearly have that house because Mr. Dearly never has to pay taxes ever again and was gifted that house because he wiped out the government debt.  They also had two nannies - Nanny Cook and Nanny Butler. Pongo is still there, but the mother of his pups is a dalmatian named Missis.  Perdita is a dalmatian the family took in out of the rain as a 'wet nurse' to help feed the 15 puppies. Perdita apparently means lost. Cruella is also married to a furrier. Because of course.

  Perdita tells Pongo that she HAD puppies, by a dog named Prince, but her owner sold her puppies so she was out looking for them. After the puppies are stolen, and the Twilight bark reveals the location, Pongo and Missis TRY to tell the humans but fail cause they can't say S's.   Pongo and Missis go on the search for the puppies, and Perdita stays behind to watch the Dearly's. When they get to hell hall, there's 97 puppies and Cadpig is a runt and needs to be pulled along in a toy cart supplied by a 2 year old boy in order to escape. When the dogs get back to London, Cruella's PERSIAN CAT who wants revenge for the kittens Cruella drowned, lets them inside the house so the dogs can destroy Cruella's furs.  They return home and it turns out Perdita's puppies were the one's pulling Cadpig, Prince confirms! Since all the puppies were bought and paid for, and not stolen. No one is looking to get them back. Even Perdita's owner sells her to the Dearly's because fuck Perdita I guess smh. Cruella's cat is now HOMELESS because the destruction of the furs has forced Cruella to flee the country and put Hell Hall up for sale so the Dearly's adopt the cat as well. They then buy Hell Hall for their "Dalmatian Dynasty" with money earned by fixing another gov. debt.  They then adopt Prince because they see how much he still loves Perdita and Prince becomes dalmatian 101. TIME FOR BOOK 2. THE STARLIGHT BARKING. They're still living in Hell Hall and the Persian cats are married.  Cadpig now lives with the Prime Minister. Wholesome, right? Happy and cute what could the sequel to 101 Dalmatians possibly entail that's weirder than the first? MY FRIENDS. FAM. BUCKLE UP. The dogs awaken one morning to find out that not a single living thing aside from dogs can wake up. Doors, machines, etc all work on command and the dogs don't need to eat or drink or sleep.  Cadpig is now the acting PRIME MINISTER AND THE DOGS CAN COMMUNICATE VIA THOUGHT WAVES. They soon discover that they can 'swoosh' which is basically hovering over the ground at high speed. So, I mean, flying. They can basically fly. So Pongo and Missis SWOOSH to London with about 50 other dalmatians to meet with PRIME MINISTER CADPIG. But WAIT. Tommy, the kid from the first book, and the farm crew and the Persian cat from the first book are discovered to ALSO be awake because they were dubbed "honorary dogs" after helping the dalmatians in the first book. Because fuck the Dearly's I guess they're just PETS. The Persian cat thinks this is all Cruella's fault somehow so they pull together a team to go to Cruella's home to KILL HER. But she and her husband are both asleep like everyone else. She's now obsessed with metallic plastic and not furs. So they spare her life.  And then! A mysterious voice comes onto the t.v, alerting all dogs that they must all gather tonight by midnight under starlight. The Twilight bark and the TELEPATHY ensures all dogs get this message. Because of course. *INHALES BECAUSE NEXT PART IS A DOOZY.* All the dogs, including the honorary ones are gathered and waiting. Then! At Midnight! Euphoria! The terror! ....... As Sirius, the Lord of the Dog star appears and announces that he's lonely, and he wants to take all the dogs off Earth so they can avoid the future Nuclear War. But the dogs have to come willingly and in the morning he promises that the world will forget dogs every existed so they're not missed. Pongo is tasked with deciding the fate OF EVERY DOG ON EARTH.  Some stray dogs convince Pongo to say no to Sirius, because the decision to go would be unfair to any dog on Earth who is still hoping to find a loving family on Earth.  So Pongo says no, and Siris proud that the dogs are staying so loyal despite the promise of eternal bliss. Sirius lets all the dogs SWOOSH back home and of course they deduce he appeared everywhere in the world at once because he's a star and not bound by. Physics or something. Pongo gives one last message to Sirius saying dogs may leave one day, but for now they like being on Earth. Also in the second book. Lucky has a wife named Gay and they're secretaries to a poodle.  Patch refuses to marry because he doesn't want to pass down his eye spot.  Roly Poly teaches George, a boxer, how to swim and they bond over magical adventures in Paris. I PROMISE YOU nothing Disney makes with 101 Dalmatians can top the source material and honestly they’re cowards for not doing a perfect adaptation or the second book. (Apparently Disney wanted to do more things based on that author’s work when he was alive  and I’m sure he would have had he not died in 1966 since Starlight Barking came out in 1967. Just think, there’s probably a timeline where Starlight Barking is the first Disney animated sequel instead of Rescuers Down Under.)

FAVORITE FANFICS OF 2020

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

I know I speak for all when I say....I cannot wait to toss 2020 out the door the way Uncle Phil constantly did with Jazz. One of the things that got me through this rough year, besides family & friends & BTS, were fanfics.

It’s that time of year again where I make a list of all the fanfics that I absolutely adored. Some are by veteran favs of mine, others are new to me who just knocked it out of the park. If you’re interested in past lists, here is 2019′s list and 2018′s. If y’all are interested in doing your own fanfic favs of the year, please do so and tag me. Always on the hunt for new favs. 

So without furhter ado, my fav fanfics of 2020:

1). Another Word for Forever series by stardropdream (sheith)

Summary: Shiro knows better than to expect love in an arranged marriage. This is all for the sake of universal peace, after all, and solidifying a Terran-Galran alliance. At the very least, Shiro can hope to make a friend out of this. Becoming friends would be much easier, though, if he and his husband could actually communicate. 

With a language barrier and a mountain of cultural differences between them, getting to know Keith proves to be a challenge. Luckily, Shiro's always worked well with challenges.

2020 shockingly became the year of sheith. I ended up rewatching the show w/my bestie @littlenightdragon​. Diving more deeply into it w/my other bestie @kila09​. She and I spent the better half of this year devouring so many fanfics of them in various AUs. I came across new fanfic authors, and stardropdream is among them. 

If I could describe this series & stardropdream, I’ll take a cue from Lady Gaga: “ talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference, put it in a blender, shit on it, vomit on it, eat it, give birth to it”

This series was just PERFECTION. I’ve gotten into arranged-marriage AUs and this has been one of the best I’ve read. It was just perfection. The language barrier definitely added an extra charm to it, in which Shiro finds his own ways to get to know his husband better: both creative and funny ways. So many cute moments, so many funny moments with Hunk being the translating middle man between them, and the smut. THE SMUT. THE SMUT. THE SMUT. Just *chef’s kiss* Incredible. It was just so so sweet, and such a comfort read. I reread this series 5 times already and hope Robin (the writer) does more stories in this AU.

Please read this series. You’re not gonna regret it. It will MELT your heart. 

Honorable Mentions:

If I Called You Mine

Sail Across the Sky Just to Get to You

Finding Shelter (The Alien Baby Remix)

Say You Do(n’t)

2). The Golden Hour by @goldentruth813​ (sheith)

Summary:  After a space mission failure, Shiro loses his arm and his career. Two years later he's settled into a quiet and simple new life on his farm, but when a beautiful alien crashes in his field, he discovers the answers to his questions—and possibly the keys to his future—will come from the stars.

I’m sure no one, least of all Janel the writer herself, is surprised to see this author featured on this list. For now the 3rd year in a row. WOOOW  👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿 She is the reason I got into shieth, and she just continues to put out amazing conent with them. This story by far has been the best she’s done this year-possibly one of the best ever. 

We have Shiro trying to have a simple life at the farm with his dog and animals. A curious BOM Keith who shakes things up with his boldness/innocence-and questions bound to test blood pressure, especially Shiro’s. Loads of cute moments, loads of funny moments, and also loads of oreos. 

If summary and my thoughts don’t sell you, only one thing will: reading it for yourself.

Honorable mentions:

Two Hearts in Bloom

Mountain Men

Home is in Your Heart

3). Spun like Gold by Neyasochi (sheith)

Summary: Though Shiro is currently operating his fledgling bakery business out of a decrepit food truck he got for cheap in a repossession sale, he dreams of something more: a cozy bakery and cafe on a tree-lined street somewhere, filled with the smell of fresh coffee and sugar glaze instead of diesel. A little money could go a long way to helping him get off the ground-- and luckily, Keith has money to burn.

Or: Keith takes care of Shiro’s financial woes, in exchange for a little sugar.

OMG, OMG, OMG was this story so sweet. Neyasochi already sold me with the baking/baker Shiro trope, but went a step further throwing in sugar-daddy Keith who knows his way around his manic family and cars, but when it comes to asking a cute guy out? What better way to make an impression than becoming his best paying customer?  

Honorable mentions:

oh, devour me

Healing Touch

on your hand of gold 

4). The Destiny You Sold by @tryslora​ (drarry)

Summary: In which Draco knits, Harry makes wands, and things get very tangled up between them.

If there’s one thing I love about fanfics is how they introduce you to tropes you never would consider before. Draco and knitting was a combo I didn’t realize how much I needed until now. And I love the fact knitting played a big part of the accidental bonding. Also loved the fact everyone in their friend group shipped them like crazy. Highly, highly recommend 

5) What’s My Age Again? by @lazywonderlvnd​ (drarry)

Summary: Harry Potter has had enough of pleasing the public, and his reckless tendencies are finally getting out of hand.

The Quidditch World Cup is only a week away; as Captain of the English National Team, Hermione has assured him that his immaturity won’t be tolerated by the Ministry.

And then Malfoy shows up.

(Inspired by the blink-182 song of the same name.)

It’s no secret that I’m such a fangirl of @lazywonderlvnd​. Any drarry story I read, I always love. Last year, I ADORED The Changing Lights, which was one of my favorites last year, and her updating/finishing the story was a massive highlight for me. I thank ya for that. 

This story was honestly refreshing. I’ve grown so used to Harry being responsible, always doing what’s right, that seeing a story where Harry pretty much has his middle finger in the air to “good reputation”, “being responsible,” because as he brought up: “I’m 25. I’ve been fighting all my life. I’ve earned my life to have fun.”

Okay, granted, it wasn’t quite like that but it was along those lines. And I agree. After all he went through, Harry deserves to have fun. He deserves to be reckless and make stupid decisions.

Also, it was such a blast reading a story where Harry is the brat & Draco has to keep him in line. LOVED.

Honorable mentions: 

Inside Your Mind

Aletheia

6). Chocolate and Pastry by agentmoppet, anemonen (drarry)

Summary:  When Pansy bets Draco that there is no chance he and Harry could carry out a genuine romantic relationship, he and Harry form a plan. But as their fake relationship progresses, Draco sees a side of Harry he never expected. Harry is struggling with something, pushing it far down inside him where he doesn't have to acknowledge its existence. Draco starts to worry, and then he starts to care, and then... horribly... he starts to fall in love.

Do not let the title fool you like it did me. Title alone, I was thinking it was going to be a fun, fluffy story involving baking, maybe chocolate crafting. However....it was not that at all. It was more. A lot deeper. A lot more angsty. It explored mental health, PTSD and the dangers of loved ones ignoring the signs, and contained an important message:

You can’t love someone out of their illness/disease/ addiction. Which is true and this story showed that. 

7). i’m still here by owedbetter (zutara)

Summary: "You see me."

And somehow, that makes all the difference.

If there’s one of the few good things 2020 has brought, it was Netflix bringing back ATLA to their library. Which in turn ignited my love for zutara & had me drag @kila09​ into that ship. 

This story was just incredible. The way it was written, it really felt like it could have been canon. Deleted scenes that a certain creator didn’t want us to see. The way Zuko and Katara came together, starting from their peaceful friendship after the Southern Raiders episode up, becoming closer along the way. 

I dare y’all to read this and not think OMG...is this secret canon bonus material? I definitely plan to read more by owedbetter. 

8). all the what ifs i never said by rosegardenlake (sheith)

Summary:  Keith is nine when he first notices Shiro. Shiro is gentle and quiet, always keeping to himself. Keith is rough and loud, running wherever his feet will take him, screaming on the top of his lungs into the wind. But despite that, they're a constant throughout each other's lives...if only that could be enough. As they grow, Keith just wants them both to be happy, but instead, he's falling apart.

Rosegardenlake is another sheith writer who I adored last year & adore this year as well. This was a story that I read during the beginning of quarantine-life and when I tell you the number of times Keith’s emotions of loneliness got to me, it’s a big number. 

Keith’s struggle with life after high school, after peaking in school, and his mental health reminded me too much of where I was at 2018, which wasn’t a good year for me at all, especially mentally. So that was triggering but it was also helpful since I saw how far I came. And it was beautiful seeing how far Keith came. 

Also the relationship between Shiro and Keith was just beautiful. It’s very funny how Keith was Shiro’s protector growing up and Shiro became Keith’s later on in life. There’s a chance your heart may be heavy, but will also be so swelled up with feelings these two bring it. 

Honorable mentions:

Where the Light Doesn’t Reach 

9). When Night Comes by Oh_Hey_Tae (BTS; poly ot7)

Summary: Jungkook’s tipsy, but he’s not buzzed enough to miss that he doesn’t recognize any of the four dozen people here. And seeing as his friends aren’t ones to ditch and there’s no way they’d play a prank this mean on him, Jungkook reaches the conclusion that he just walked into a stranger’s very expensive home, uninvited, and started eating their food and petting their well-dressed dog.

(Or: Jungkook shows up to the wrong Halloween party and meets the most powerful family in Seoul.)

I can easily say Oh_Hey_Tae easily one of my favorite BTS fanfic favs. Always come through with the stories, and this one was just amazing. We have Jungkook stumbling into a Halloween story, and soon enters into a intense, insane relationship with all six guys, who are already in a relationship with each other. Oh, and supernatural creatures at that. 

You do see certain relationships are stronger, deeper. For example, a lot of moments between Jin and Jungkook. Vmin has their own story and moments. But it was just so amazing. 

Fair warning. Halfway through, things get darker and Oh_My_Tae really loves playing readers diirty with the angst, but it’s so good. 

10). peace-weaver by magisterpavus (sheith)

Summary: You will be the peace-weaver, his mother told him, smiling though her dark eyes welled with unshed grief. The one who brings two bitter enemies together and ends the bloodshed and death between us, once and for all.

But men will always crave war. The Galra, most of all.

Yet another arranged-marriage AU that I loved. This particular one is well-loved in the sheith fandom. I can definitely say it’s considered one of the classic fanfics that’s been read or shared at one point or another. 

The story itself reminded me a lot of Macbeth, involving murder and dark forces at bay. The dynamics between Shiro and Keith reminded me of Drogo and Daenerys from GOT, one of my fav couples there, which only made it all the more better for me. 

I do credit the author for the creative approach they took with quintessence and Shiro’s role/persona as the Champion

Honorable mentions:

The Boy in the Window 

Sheith Demon/Priest AU

A Matter of Scale

Directive 

Honorable mentions that I seriously wanted to add to the list but this post is already lengthy. All amazing, all greats reads by various writers y’all should check out:

Hold Me Tight, or Don’t by snowfallen (yoonmin with a Mr. & Mrs. Smith AU featuring assassins and hitmen, secret identities, fake marriage, and a lot of smut)

The Prince and Pirate by Maniacani, @nerdherderette​ (drarry with a splash of royalty and pirates. Perfect if you’re needing to fill in any Pirates of the Caribbean or Black Sails cravings)

First Kisses are the Best Ones by SashaDistan (sheith in a 50 First Dates Fusion heartfelt/heart-gutting story)

freely, as men strive for right by @bixgirl1​ (drarry w/Harry explaining the many ways why Draco’s the love of his life. we love to see it)

The Sacrificed by SasuNarufan13 (sasunaru w/ dark fairytale elements similar to Little Red Riding Hood & Beauty and the beast + feat. mpreg)

Chasing Treacle Tart (and Draco Malfoy) by xErised (drarry feat. lunch lady Draco + scheming Harry + loads of fun w/sweets & more)

Red Desert by @beatitudinembty​ (taekook in a unique sci-fi AU; hard to explain but so worth a read

one way ticket to another life by starboykeith (sheith Hades x Persephone background)

Even So by lewilder (zutara; arranged marriage+ language barrier +soft strangers to lovers)

Well, lovely people, there you have it. My top 10 favorite fanfics of the year. I do notice a certain ship shows up a lot on this list, but I wasn’t kidding when I said they took over this year. Still, I tried to mix the list up with other fav ships/fandoms of mine. To the writers who created these incredible stories. I applaud you. I thank you for creating and sharing these wonderful stories. Anyone interested in doing the tag, please do. 

HAPPY NEW YEAR, GUYS

[kenni-woodard]

I really need to get this out in the open because I'm feeling like I don't have the right to exist in this fandom, like I should just shut up and hide in the shadows because my feelings are misplaced. Which isn't right - marginalized people should never feel like their feelings are a burden because they dampen the mood for the status quo.

I will be discussing the intersection of race and fandom, which I know makes people uncomfortable and defensive. So I'm putting it under a readmore. This isn't for discourse. I am just putting my feelings out there for myself.

I am a moreid shipper. It's the pairing that seemed most natural to me. I didn't see any other ship as easily as I saw this one.

I support other ships. Everyone has the right to ship who they want. Plus there are some other ships that are fantastic in CM.

However, there is a consistent pattern of treating Derek Morgan as lesser than Aaron Hotchner and it gets under my skin.

I have felt like Derek has been literally pushed / thrown to the side / moved out of the way for Aaron to be Spencer's partner instead in many of the interactions and fics I've observed in this fandom. I have seen Aaron touted as husband material in poly ships while Derek is dismissed to 'boy'friend or a secondary relationship of convenience.

Do I think people are intentionally treating him this way because he's black? Absolutely not. Does it mirror the mistreatment of people of color in media? Yes.

Whether it's intentional or not, the impact is still the same for me. I am triggered by the pattern I've seen emerging as I continue to be involved in this fandom. I am reminded of the fact that brown people have historically been treated as "secondary" to white people, and that their visibility is purely at the behest of the often white content creators.

The relegation of Derek to boyfriend while Aaron is assigned the role of husband in one of the fics I've recently read made me realize that perhaps it's not widely known for a lot of the CM population that using "boy" in reference to a grown ass man is often used as derogatory by whites attempting to belittle blacks in the US south (really everywhere in the US but I can only speak to the south as per my experience and observation).

I feel like this bothers me so much because I see fewer tender interactions between Spencer and Aaron than I do between Derek and Spencer, so my brain makes the Herculean leap that the only reason hotchreid is such a popular ship is because people simply don't want to write about / fantasize about a black man. I know that's probably not true. There are probably lots of non race-related reasons for the preference for Aaron. Doesn't make it sting any less.

So in summary, while I know that this feeling is mostly my issue and a misplacement of sadness and ire at years of being treated as invisible in media (because people who look like me are rarely portrayed in media, especially as a love interest), I am still shaken by the overwhelming preference I'm seeing for Aaron as Spencer's primary partner with the explicit mention of Derek as passed on - and sometimes even without mention of Derek at all.

I just ask that those in this fandom space think about that when interacting with people of color who have explicitly stated a preferred ship that also has a person of color in it. It could feel like an intentional erasure or dismissal of their right to exist / see a reflection of themselves in media if you consistently replace that person of color with a white person. Even if it isn't your intention.

YOU MADE ME DO IT I'M IN AGONY AND MIGHT NOT READ YOUR RESPONSE BECAUSE I'M SCAAAAAAARED

Feel free to skip a few I'm overenthusiastic thinking of trios in Enderal

---------------------

9. Snug, marry, kill

-> The Forgotten Stories Trio

Tharaêl, Dijaam, Esme

-> The Main platonic and/or romantic Relationships (imho)

Tharaêl, Jespar, Calia

-> Easy peasy maybe? The Emissaries besides the Prophetess (asking you about Siri feels wrong lol)

Tealor, Coarek, Yuslan

-> Iconic Vendors

Fresh and Tasty Bread, huh no I just place them out for you to look at, my wares it is you want to see I promise you they bring you glee

-> Dust pit adversaries (I want to write Tharaêl again because technically true hngpf)

The Twins (double trouble with two handed hammerss), Tamas Sha'Gar (first fight with the 4 people free for all, he was the one with bow and fire arrows), Raga Shadowclaw (lycanthrope)

-> more "cuddle once, have as a pet, abandon (give to a loving person to take care of)"

Whirlwind (Donkey), Standard Brown horse (not Svart), Cuthbert (the dead (& kinky) mini pig of Maxus Tabaccus, the summoned form not alive one of him)

-> The Big Baddies

The Father, Daddy, Ketaron Dal'Geyss (Rynéus' Father)

---------------------

I'm a big indecisive softy so I couldn't answer any of those. Last one clearly indicates a certain **theme** in the game 🤔

Long ask - long answer! Like, very long.  The following is based on my personal opinions, visions of characters, marriage, human behaviour etc etc, and I’m fine if you disagree with me. Also, warning - adult topics.

Okay, the input info: 

- I think for myself, not for my prophetess (what I am: mid twenties female who values personal space in a relationship the most).  - I don’t turn it into modern au.  - This is “fuck/marry/kill”, not “snug/marry/kill” (I believe it’s implied, but still, ADULT TOPICS AHEAD) - For me(for this game) marriage is a combo of the first of our wonderful three-positions list, the lack of wish to implement the third and commitment. If optimistic – even fruitful coexistence. I keep in mind marriage is stability and all. - “Kill” is mostly “off the table” for those characters I can’t see fitting for any of the first two positions. That doesn’t mean I want to kill them, except I specifically state so. 

1. Tharaêl, Jespar, Calia Starting with the hardest one.I’m telling bye to Calia, alas. She’s too lawful, and I’d be very grey morality-wise if put to their realities. Besides, she has these sub vibes and I agree with opinions she might be very dom when it comes to intimacy, but her whole sadness aura is not for me. I don’t want to deal with it if I don’t have to.  Jespar: we know what he thinks of any relationship - “as long as I feel like it - I’m here for it, else - adiós” and it’s pretty common for our world, but as we’re in a medieval and religious community, I believe open relationship is not common at all. I am thinking about marriage possibilities here, yes. He wouldn’t like the idea – it involves commitment. And I assume he’s the closest to me personality-wise, so we could be close friends, but I *want* commitment. Whether the relationship hits low or we’re doing pretty good – I want my spouse to be with me. Jespar is known for running away when things get bad. So yeah, he stays just for one night. And it seems I have to marry Tharael. Well… He’s very ESTJ, but I don’t mind if he takes care of, welp, everything. Pros: his understanding of “family” is quite classic to our world as well. Remember what he says in the Refuge - “no one will have to mourn me - no widow, no children, no friends”. So in his head he tried to fit the roles of a husband and a father(still can’t see how he’s capable of it, but he definitely gave it some thinking). Family for him = wife and kids. He acknowledges and accepts the commitment. Besides, he seems to be very responsible and reliable. He also tries to be rational, sometimes he even manages. And, as I see the Rhalata as a military formation, having spent 8 years there, he is very straightforward and strict/precise/exact (pick the right word). If something’s being said �� rarely hidden context is implied. It makes communication much easier. Cons: he is explosive and I have strong suspicions he might be of jealous type. It is manageable, though. Especially if you set a list of rules together what is acceptable and what needs further explanations. He’s used to living following rules, so give him new ones and he’ll feel more confident. But careful, as it may play against you. Been there done that. Rules are cool as long as they’re acceptably flexible and you’re not trying to find how to cheat and break them. 

But out of these three, he is the husband material, at least for me. I’m not mentioning any intimacy above, as it would break the game for Tharael at all. But if elaborating – I don’t even know how you would drag him to your bedroom when he’s aware what he is and absolutely not aware what this new “shell” may produce as kids, if it is capable of it at all. So I politely ignore this fact. (In my otp it works as I headcanon the prophet can’t have children)

2. Tharaêl, Dijaam, Esme Why I would marry Esme: she *is* commitment. She cares a lot for a person she’s close to. She cares even after their relationship is not a thing anymore. I love this personality trait, and I’d like to see it in a potential spouse. I’m not sure what kind of relationship she prefers tho, if it’s open like Jespar wants them to be, I start doubting and think of picking Tharael again(not telling Tharael doesn’t care as much; in fact, he cares more). If not an open relationship – Esme is “lighter” than him, but also much more naive. But it’s okay, I can be oversuspicious for the both of us. So, marry Esme. And sorry, Dijaam, I have to kill you as I like Tharael more 🤷🏻‍♀️ 

3. Tealor, Coarek, Yuslan Ah, tricky. Yuslan once had a family – he’s capable of it, they were happy, so I’d pick him for marriage. I know how Qyranian people handle families and marriage, and poly relationships are definitely not my thing, but what he had was very “classy”, so I’m good.Tealor failed to have a family. He barely tried at all. Taranor – the lore never mentioned anything about any love interests. I guess not much difference here picking who to fuck and who to kill. I just pick what looks better, so… kill Tealor.

4. “Iconic Vendors Fresh and Tasty Bread, huh no I just place them out for you to look at, my wares it is you want to see I promise you they bring you glee” I barely trade in the game, I hoard everything😅 I know the first one is Marita, the second phrase is not unique to just one character and the last one I simply can’t remember. But I don’t want to do anything with the mean trader, so I kill him. Marita will be my friend.

5. “Dust pit adversaries (I want to write Tharaêl again because technically true hngpf)The Twins (double trouble with two handed hammerss), Tamas Sha'Gar (first fight with the 4 people free for all, he was the one with bow and fire arrows), Raga Shadowclaw (lycanthrope)” Ehhhh we don’t have any personalities here, so I can’t really pick anyone. KILL ALL! 

6. “more "cuddle once, have as a pet, abandon (give to a loving person to take care of)"Whirlwind (Donkey), Standard Brown horse (not Svart), Cuthbert (the dead (& kinky) mini pig of Maxus Tabaccus, the summoned form not alive one of him)” I’m keeping the ghost pig as it’s somewhat intelligent, doesn’t need food and grooming and takes care of itself in general. If given the choice, I wouldn’t pick anything. Commitment, commitment… As for the other two hoofed frens, no difference really. I’d patpat both, but I don’t want to own a pet.

7. The Father, Daddy, Ketaron Dal'Geyss (Rynéus' Father) Ahh yess daddy issues :D It’s actually simple for me. Daddy I would kill. Huge no. No-no-no. Firstly, he’s a father figure (and you associate yourself with the prophet), so no “snug”, no marriage, no anything. Kill him and that’s all. Ketaron I have to pick for just one night as I don’t see it possible for me to survive under the same roof with this shitty person… So I marry the Father. Nothing physical and it won’t be much I would have to contribute to this relationship but it would be interesting to learn new things, at least. Still, I can see it as “I don’t bother you with your business, you don’t bother me, we just coexist without hate and sometimes I ask dumb questions” That’s all. And no, I won’t try to change anything about the Father. I’d better prefer to avoid any contacts. Serious questions here, being put into a position of spouse would make me shave my head or not 🤔

Mercilessly Judging the Men of Fòdlan: The Empire

It’s been a long time coming, over eight months in fact, but now that it may be assumed that the last of the DLC has been released and the fandom as a whole has settled comfortably into its various camps I think there’s no better time than now to answer that burning question: how raunchily, outrageously gay can the male cast of Three Houses possibly be? For those unfamiliar with this fun little series of mine, I’ve been applying my extensive knowledge and experience of gay male sex and hookup culture to the men of Fire Emblem, originally as a way of reckoning with the refusal of the games themselves to provide me with any worthwhile self-insert M/M content. I stand by that premise for FE16 - you all know how absolutely nothing appeals to me about m!Byleth or his prospects on that score - but in the years since my first outing of merciless judgment with Awakening that idea has expanded into something broader, an imaginative modern AU of sorts where all these guys are into men (if not always exclusively) and willing to put themselves out there in the lewd and semi-anonymous world of hookup apps in search of their preferred carnal delights.

A note on organization before we begin, as this material is too long to cram into one post. Excluding Byleth (as Avatars and their spawn always are for this project) there are twenty-one playable male characters in Three Houses. This makes for an even threeway division to preserve the eponymous conceit of the game, but not a particularly neat one. Aligned with the Adrestian Empire I therefore have below the male Eagles, Crimson Flower-exclusive Jeritza, former Imperial noble Hanneman, and...Seteth, because he’s the closest thing to a non-self-insert lord figure in Silver Snow and because he had to end up somewhere. As I said, not very neat.

The Kingdom

The Alliance

Hubert

His profile is sparsely filled out and his photo less than promising, but the select few who catch his eye will be treated to a courteous (if mildly acidic) barrage of introductory messages and polite requests to meet over coffee or a light lunch, no dick pics or requests for same in sight. It’s only after the exchange of small talk has passed that someone - could be you, could be him - brings up why he has kink as a listed interest, opening up a Pandora’s box of horrors as he casually shows you some of his photo collections. Asses red from whips and floggers, scrotums stuck through with pins, barbed cock rings, electrified nipple clamps, and ghastly shots of the man himself, his mouth dripping with blood over a fresh bite wound on his teary-eyed partner’s shoulder. He is, he explains, a Dom at heart - and the rougher the better. What he doesn’t explain and likely never will is that all that pain play and torture porn neatly covers for the fact that he’s less endowed and less skilled in that area than he’d be willing to admit, or that he harbors a secret longing to be Dommed himself, probably by someone close to him who has no interest whatsoever. He takes his career very seriously although you’ll never learn exactly what that entails, but you have a sneaking suspicion that whatever it is enables all those coldly violent impulses he displays in the bedroom.

Favorite erotic tea time subjects: CBT, vore, femdom

Favored gift: stiletto heels, for use on his face

Ferdinand

Within a minute of talking to him you know his full name, what prominent public figure(s) he’s related to, and where he plans on going with his life, in an overwhelming display of lack of concern for keeping his private life private that would be worrying if he didn’t pair it with an indefatigable self-confidence. The type of gentleman who expects flowers and opened doors and one person to pay for a whole date and coy blushing about going back to his place for some tea, but what unfolds afterwards may be surprising to anyone who wasn’t picking up on the subtext during the night out: that you’re dealing with a toned and vigorous vers/bottom who longs to lie back and be taken care of but absolutely will never turn down a challenge or request no matter how much it demands of him or how expertly he will be able to rise to the occasion. Long practice and some truly enviable thighs (he’s a noted equestrian, and loves showing off his album of favorite horses) let him milk a cock for hours - nearly as long as the subsequent pillow talk will be. It’s little wonder more than one of his lovers has had the idea to gag him...or to fuck him somewhere outside his bedroom once they go in and find the walls plastered with posters of his favorite pop and stage divas staring at you. Prime trophy husband material, wealthy and well-connected and fetching on anyone’s arm, but there’s no question that he’ll only be truly happy if he’s with someone who can challenge him to step out of his unusually large comfort zone: socially, professionally, or sexually.

Favored erotic tea time subjects: edging, crossdressing, fisting

Favored gift: a horse cock dildo, for his much-lauded huge hole

Linhardt

A master at genuinely negligent ghosting, it’ll take a minor miracle to actually arrange a meeting with this guy. Either he never answers, or he does but only to snap at you because he’s busy and only even logged into the app because his mind wandered for a second. Still, he draws a lot of attention from those into geeky twinks. Is not into foreplay, and can scarcely be bothered to maintain interest long enough to even stay hard unless you get lucky enough to hit on one of his subjects of recent fascination. Never offers to do anything in bed, and will in fact pick up his phone to browse through Wikipedia and Reddit while he’s being penetrated. Calling him out for his appalling lack of manners will get nothing more than a wry snort and a quick summary of whatever’s currently got his attention. Never cums, doesn’t seem to want to cum, and guys creative enough to try to ride him are often disappointed that he’s more likely to grumble that all that bouncing on his pelvis is making it impossible for him to catch a power nap. Just about the only way to fully get him invested is to get really weird - introduce him to some fetish he’s never thought to try. Incest kink, breeding kink, role reversals, elaborate roleplay...the more cerebral the better, because the physical stuff tends to put him off (especially blood play, which is his hard limit). Needless to say most aren’t up to that task, and so he’s nonchalantly left a trail of frustrated and disappointed men in his wake.

Favored erotic tea time subjects: somnophilia, historical roleplay, mpreg

Favored gift: a long-lasting vibrator, so he can stick it in and let it work while he’s otherwise occupied

Caspar

No amount of headless torso pics and carefully scaled dick pics will be enough for his ego, but encountering him in person will reveal that he’s not so much vain or delusional masc4masc as really, really compensating for something. This manifests as a deep-rooted resentment against guys taller than him or, ahem, better-proportioned, but his preference of sexual partners does not reflect his prejudices - which is fortunate for him given his measurements. Loud and energetic in all things, and it shocks no one that he’s a screamer in bed but also can’t last for very long once he really gets going. Lucky for everyone that his refractory period is unusually brief, although that leaves him deflecting odd inquiries into whatever substances he may be on (he’s clean and always has been, hard as that is for anyone to believe). Likes to top for the workout, but he won’t say no to riding a good dick. Has an unexpected sentimental side he’s not very good at expressing except indirectly, in the same way that he’s apparently oblivious to his casual innuendos. It will take someone very patient to put up with him, but the reward is (probably) worth it for the body alone provided he’s got a sufficient outlet for all that energy. Would be perfect for an active poly relationship or long-term FWB situation so no one guy has to manage him alone, but he’d have to be at the center of any such arrangement lest his numerous insecurities rear their heads. Is not into incest kink.

Favored erotic tea time subjects: post-workout sex, multiple orgasms, autofellatio (he wishes)

Favored gift: condoms a size too big for him, because even safe sex should be an opportunity for bragging

Seteth

He doesn’t share nudes, and says upfront that he’ll block anyone who asks or opens conversation with one. Seems to be genuinely interested in friendship over anything else, although he’s not great at small talk in text and would rather chat over snacks on a park bench or at one of the numerous community events he likes to organize. Is a family man through and through: devoted to his loved ones, quiet in his hobbies, and unusually spiritual in an orthodox church-going way. You start to wonder if he’s even into men or if his presence on the apps was just a very strange fluke, but he holds his handshakes just a little too long and progresses quicker to hugs and quietly intimate arm touches. Discussion of his prior love life is strictly off limits, but many months down the road when you finally get invited into his bed it’s clear that he’s no blushing virgin and is adept in the use of fingers, tongue, and cock for fully satisfying his partner. He might even bottom, although he’ll blush about being long out of practice in that area which suggests a wealth of untold stories by itself. He also may be, somehow, the only man in existence who knows what intercrural is and how to do it. Blessed with stamina far beyond what might be suggested by his age (which he only reveals several weeks into your acquaintance, another point of embarrassment for him), your encounters are far more likely to end with a phone call from one of the innumerable people who look up to him and depend upon his reliable if fussy sense of duty than it is from him tiring out. Fond of fishing, and known to take dates out to cast a line and then maybe have some naughty fun afterward. Does not appreciate being called a daddy, but he’s been known to accept big bro as an occasional slip-up.

Favored erotic tea time subjects: discipline, incest kink, scalies

Favored gift: your STI testing history, because he doesn’t mess around with that stuff

Hanneman

A polite if unassuming silver daddy, with no sugar for the obvious escorts but the cushy professional post and generosity to make him appealing to a less openly mercantile sort of young man. His chosen field is not an easy subject for light conversation, but damned if he doesn’t try his best regardless. His favorite tactic might be finding some way of applying his work to something about his date, no matter how tenuous the connection or how unwelcome the observations. Not super fit and doesn’t get out much so as the night is winding down he’s not good for very much other than intermittent blowjobs and even more languid handjobs, although a truly dedicated partner might coax something more out of him with help from a little blue pill or two...and maybe some poppers, because he’s old enough to remember when everyone used those. Despite his reputation for mildly inappropriate perving on guys young enough to be his sons - some of which he acquired in a professional context, with some of his favorite anecdotes of past trysts involving junior lab techs/TAs/secretaries/others among his subordinates - he’s not actually averse to fooling around with men closer to his own age, although he’s more awkward about it since he’s a bit out of his element when he’s no longer the only experienced voice of wisdom in the room. Either way, if there’s one thing he hates it’s sloppiness, whether in one’s personal or professional life. As a result he avoids bars like the plague and has little patience for drunks. Contrary to this fastidiousness however his advances in his career are such that he may one day do something radical and ill-advised in the pursuit of knowledge; one only hopes that the various skeletons hiding in his closet don’t come back to haunt him - with regret or harassment lawsuits or who only knows what else.

Favored erotic tea time subjects: medical kink, teacher/student, cock milking

Favored gift: consent to video encounters, for future reference

Jeritza

The kind of rough trade all your friends warned you about...except he’s not rough trade, not really. Deeply troubled and disarmingly attractive is a deadly combination, and he thrives in a medium where one-word responses and explicit pics are considered perfectly commonplace. Encounters with him are quick and rough and nearly anonymous, always in the dark and with little opportunity to see or interact with him apart from the hands grasping you to him and the admittedly impressive cock jabbing into you from whatever angle he can manage. He’s had the threat of assault charges or worse thrown at him more than once, but it’s never made him any more considerate or careful. To the very rare individual who keeps returning for more the most explanation he’ll ever provide is that he becomes someone else when pursuing sex, someone hard and violent and not at all like the person he insists that he is. This is something he ties into some deep-seated trauma, but there’s something distinctly insincere about the underlying psychology as if it were only an excuse for an abuse fetish run wild. Pretty much all of his tricks ghost him at that point, wanting to get as far as away as possible from a true crime drama just waiting to happen. Curiously enough if he ever does find a long-term partner it won’t be with the expected extreme masochist - expect them only to show up in a police report one day, with extremely gory pictures - but with someone who can match his lustful bloodlust with more of the same and who is totally comfortable throwing around death threats that at some point transform into only moderately disturbing innuendos.

[sillybub]

(forgive me I can't help myself 😅😂) for the ship thing: my OTPS Demestrap, Platoria, Rumpletoria, Platoriteazer(Plato×Victoria×Rumpleteazer), Mungoffelees, & of course Tuggoffelees! ( ꈍᴗꈍ)

Do not apologize!!  I appreciate you and your asks so much!!  

Edit: this turned out to be a little long, so I put the answers under the cut.

Demestrap:

I LOVE them!!!!! They deserve each other. Demeter is so skittish and Munk is so protective!! And he’s so hard-working and stressed and she is so gentle and calming 😭😭😭

Munk was probably just the perfect gentleman in the early stages of their relationship and he still is!! I’ll bet that dork asked to hold her hand the first time they did it. He treats her so right.

And Demeter adores him just as much!! She is his partner in everything and she makes sure that he takes care of himself.

I like to imagine that their courtship got kick-started with Jemima (whom I hc as Deme’s daughter by Macavity) taking a liking to Munkustrap. He offered to babysit her very often so that Deme could get some alone time, or go out with friends, and she’s like “oh?? Husband material??”

It was definitely a slow-burn romance; Deme needed time to recover from her last relationship, and Munk was more than willing to wait for her.

Platoria

Another pairing that I’m into! They remind me a lot of high-school sweethearts. They’re both still very young and getting the hang of Being Functional and Independent, but they’re making their way through life together.

Plato is SUCH a cheesy and romantic boyfriend, bringing her flowers and serenading her with songs that he wrote himself (mostly; he gets Alonzo’s help).

Victoria showers him with cute, dumb nicknames and compliments. He is her Sweetie Bear, her Honey Bunny, her Big Gentle Mountain Lion, etc.

Rumpletoria

I have just recently started looking into this ship and I’m HERE for it!!!! Disaster Lesbian Teazer and Functional Bi Victoria is a ship that I did not expect but I am glad that it has gained popularity!!

Teazer being super chaotic and a complete mess because “djdjb gosh how is Vic so pretty????” and Vic sees Teazer as a rougishly attractive swashbuckler like “oh!! How romantic and exciting!!” and they’re both so desperately head over heels for each other!!

Rumpleteazer stealing pretty trinkets for Vic (“a queen must have her jewels!”) and Victoria teaching Rumpleteazer some elegant and intimate ballet moves and Rumple gets so flustered lifting Vic and holding her so close and Vic is like “oh yeah it’s all coming together”

Platoriteazer:

Of all the poly ships in Cats, this one is probably my favorite!! God the dynamic is so strong. Plato and Teazer are both dumbasses with a single brain cell between them and it’s entirely dedicated to “oh jeez oh gosh our girlfriend is so pretty skdndjsidhfb”

Mungoffelees:

As far as 2019 goes, I’m into it!! The way Munk urges Misto on and encourages him??? The way he gently touches him and sings to him???? 😩👌 12/10

As for the stage version, I don’t have particularly strong feelings for or against it.

Tuggoffelees:

To absolutely nobody’s surprise, this is my all time favorite Cats pairing! These two have my entire heart!!

Where do I even begin??? The power of their homoerotic energy leaves me shaking. Their fondness and adoration of eachother is just so heartwarming!!!

Tugger seems to crave attention and then he spends an entire song praising somebody else?? He’s going all-out to draw the tribe’s attention to his magical and marvelous bf and it’s so much more meaningful and powerful that it comes from Tugger of all cats!!

And Misto is a fuckin wild card!! You cannot tell me that he isn’t a Chaotic Bastard Trickster. He’s never where you think he is, and the intensity of his powers are a wonder even to him! Nobody knows what he’s gonna do next! He is elusive, secretive, and sly.

I think that they’re both a little bit scared of rejection/letting others down.  That’s why Tugger is such a show-off and yet is oddly distant, and why Mistoffelees is so “vague and aloof.”  They truly bring out the best in each other, though–Tugger is obviously Misto’s hype man, and Mistoffelees sticks by Tugger no matter what.

Just Married Letter

Hey!! Good to see you here!! Feel free to scroll through my letter tag if you want some more ideas <3

For this exchange the only thing I hardcore request is that the people getting married love each other. I’m okay with them not being in a relationship yet, some good old mutual pining not thinking the other one thinks they love them is fine, but I want them to love each other in the end pls.

Likes: trans characters, queer themes, queer solidarity, character development, strong gen relationships and interactions with other characters outside of the relationship in general, dialogue driven story, non-linear narrative, animals

Dislikes: soulmate/destiny based stuff (unless its angrily going against destiny),

DNW: NSFW with under age characters, a/b/o, non-con

Feel free to go with any tags I’ve added but here are some suggestions :)

Final Fantasy

I love the whole gang here and how they interact with each other! I’d love a story that includes all of them and how much they mean to each other, be it in a poly ship or gen friendship. I’m a massive sucker for trans Gladio but in my heart, none of the gang are straight or cis so y’know.

I’m also down for arranged marriage but actually just friends and in love with other people or breach of promise of marriage - in regards to starting with Luna/Noct - didn’t want to tag these incase i matched with someone who wanted to write end game luna/noct

“We Could Be Dead Tomorrow So Let’s Get Married Today” AND dying in each other’s arms on their wedding night Final Fantasy leans hard-core into those angsty tropes and I got to say I love it. I’m here for “We Could Be Dead Tomorrow So Let’s Get Married Today” being set either during the final battle where they know Noct is going to die or at any other point because these kids have it rough and that way you could either swing a sad he’s dead now or a happy he’s not! Whichever you’re feeling!If you end with death I really want to see all the (remaining) gang grieving together, whether you have them as being in a relationship or are writing Prompto/Noctis

Drunken Marriage Okay I’m picturing less the Vegas style drunken wedding but all of them around the camp fire after a long day, knocking back a few too many before thinking fuck this we’re in love let’s just get married right now.If writing Prompto/Noctis you can have Ignis or Gladio be an officiant for some obscure reason or pair this with poly group act as officiators for each other

Choosing an Engagement Ring You could pair this with having to be kind of subtle because Noct is technically promised/going to be promised, depending on when you set this, to someone else and have some nice angst while looking for the ring

Their Marriage Can Never Be Legal (But That’s Okay) Insert Noctis has to marry Luna angst – plot twist Luna lives and the second half of the game doesn’t exist, turns out she’s a lesbian and Noct and her co raise children and are great friends while loving their own partners separately

BNHA I really love the idea of these guys being together since high school OR everyone thinking they’ve been together since high school.  I also adore all of 1A, bar Mineta, and would like them to exist in the story if possible! Feel free to include background Kirishima/Bakugou

Choosing an Engagement Ring Okay it would be cute if both of them are thinking about proposing and cut between Hizashi being all need to find something practical and logical! And Aizawa trying to find something fancy for Hizashi and them both doing the absolute MOST for each other

A Game Of ‘Fuck Marry Kill’ Somehow Becomes Legally Binding Oh shit we didn’t mean to do this but whatevs we’re in love anyway OR them doing it way back when and not actually dating/knowing they like each other and then down the track one of them asks the other out and it’s like ‘why not we’re already married.’

Something Old Something New Something Borrowed Something Blue You can either play this as really sincere and cute with the items being very considered and special to them OR them choosing the most bat shit things and Aizawa walks down the aisle riding a blue hobby horse from his great grandmother

Everyone Thought They Were Already Married and Someone/Everyone Thinks They’re Married “But you’ve lived together since high school and call each other sweetheart?”“…isn’t that just being bros?”

No one believes they’re married I think this could be funny with Class 1A being like oooo is there a special someone when Aizawa has flowers delivered on Valentine’s day or something and he’s like, I’ve been married to Hizashi for five years, completely dead pan and the kids are just like if you don’t want to tell us you could have just said so drunken marriage

You could go the classic oh my god we got married OR they wanted to get married for a while but due to worry about media or putting the other at risk in terms of villains using them for leverage didn’t but then a bit of Dutch courage and bam

Naruto I also love all of team seven and team Gai they are so precious. I love when they interact with each other and play off each other – also references to their early days in the squad! I am also a big fan of Sakura NOT being obsessed with Sasuke/being over her obsession with him, bonus points if she’s gay – I’m down for some Ino/Sakura too.  

I LOVE the summons, I’m particularly keen on the toads, I love Kakashi’s dogs but they show up a fair bit whereas the toads…always ignored :’( I think the most ICONIC writing would be Gamabunta bringing a wedding present for Naruto.

--Gai/Kakashi

Someone/Everyone Thinks They're Married

Kakashi is so chilled around Gai in comparison to everyone else and Gai clearly loves his rival. i love the idea of the team just casually dropping “husband” and both of them being like ?? excuse me?

Will Only Agree To Marry If Bested In A Contest Of Their Own Design

I love these guys and their ridiculous challenges, I’d love to see a sort of joking proposal where one of them just casually goes “I’ll marry you if you beat me at-” and the situation escalates from there

 --Sasuke/Naruto

Please set this AFTER cannon bc while apparently 6 year olds can be in death squads don’t want them to marry until they’re older - bc I want this set at that age I refer to Naruto as Hokage in this - note that I’m thinking alternate ending to Naruto not Boruto era

drunken marriage You could go the classic oh my god we got married OR they wanted to get married for a while but due to worry about the Hokage marrying an ex war criminal or putting the other at risk in terms of villains using them for leverage didn’t, but then a bit of Dutch courage and bam

Game Of 'Fuck Marry Kill’ Somehow Becomes Legally Binding This happens and then Sasuke is like you have to use your Hokage powers to do x because I’m your husband! And Naruto’s like you don’t act like my husband! And then Sasuke makes him dinner and they kiss and its cute

Married so they can put rlly expensive kitchen ware on their registry Naruto grew up a penniless orphan, he’s practical about how they can afford Sasuke’s addiction with fancy cooking materials when really there’s no reason you can’t just eat ramen for every meal

Everyone Thought They Were Already Married AND Someone/Everyone Thinks They’re Married Naruto nearly died for Sasuke too many times and pledged to save him and everyone knows it, he also lets Sasuke get away with shit he shouldn’t as Hokage, barging in on meetings, illegally making a community garden in the village etc so everyone just assumed they’re already married

No one believes they’re married Okay but Naruto does all his epic stuff and is now Hokage and everyone is like haha you wouldn’t be married to Sasuke and Sasuke is just constantly having flashbacks to his academy days where he was the hot shit and Naruto was the mess

Something Old Something New Something Borrowed Something Blue You can either play this as really sincere and cute with the items being very considered and special to them OR them choosing the most bat shit things and Sasuke walks down the aisle riding a blue hobby horse Passive-Aggressive Proposal OR Serious proposal is assumed to be a joke These guys are just so stupid and bad at having logical feelings I would die for them

WTF?

Name Changed From Poly to Tandon! Greedy Poly Management “SOLD THE SOUL” of Polytechnic University for $100 Million Gift to NYU School of Engineering from Randians (Chandrika and Ranjan Tandon)

— Oct 5, 2015

Chandrika and Ranjan Tandon

NYU President John Sexton and Katepalli R. Sreenivasan, dean of the School of Engineering, today announced a $100 million gift from Chandrika and Ranjan Tandon for engineering at NYU. The gift — which will principally support faculty hiring and academic programs — is intended to build on the engineering school’s existing practice of cross-disciplinary innovation and entrepreneurship and achieve new levels of academic excellence in engineering.

The school will be re-named the NYU Tandon School of Engineering in recognition of the Tandons’ generosity and their belief in the school’s mission and promise. The University has agreed to a challenge from the donors to raise an additional, separate $50 million, which will be principally focused on scholarship aid.

Chandrika Tandon is a member of the Board of Overseers of NYU’s business school, a member of the NYU Board of Trustees, and leads the NYU President’s Global Council. A former partner at McKinsey and Company, she is chair of Tandon Capital Associates, a financial advisory firm she founded in 1992. She also is a Grammy-nominated musician, with an album, Soul Call, nominated for Best Contemporary World Music in 2011. Her husband, Ranjan Tandon, is an engineer by training and a graduate of the Harvard Business School. He is founder and chair of Libra Advisors, a hedge fund he founded in 1990 that is now a family office.

The Tandons’ donation is believed to be the largest philanthropic gift by a member of the Indian-American community.

Engineering was only recently restored to NYU after a 40-year absence when NYU merged with Polytechnic University in 2014. Since affiliating, the University has invested approximately $100 million in engineering, with improvements in facilities, faculty hiring, admissions, and fundraising, and has also established the related Center for Urban Science and Progress (CUSP). This gift will accelerate the School of Engineering’s academic advancement, enabling it to develop new areas of strength in engineering and to hire additional faculty.

Ms. Tandon said, “We feel privileged to be able to participate in the transformation that is happening at NYU and at the School of Engineering. As a Trustee of NYU, I have had a front row seat to the energy and excitement of the Global Network University and the scale of possibility it presents.

“Getting to know the engineering school was truly electrifying. The imagination and inventiveness of the students and faculty as they worked together on real world problems; the cutting- edge work being done both within the school and collaboratively across schools in such diverse areas like the arts, medicine, education, incubators; the entrepreneurial spirit that pervades the place — all this inspired us so. We truly believe that these students with the benefit of NYU’s global vision will make the world a better place.

“We also deeply respect the school’s extraordinary history and are honored to have a part in moving it forward with the visionary leadership team at the school and at the University.

“More broadly, Ranjan and I are great believers in STEM education, in the applied sciences, and in the analytic and creative disciplines that such an education develops. And we want to give back to the city that has given us so much. Our hope is that this gift will bring many more of us together to reinvent engineering, advance New York’s efforts to become a science and tech capital, and foster the talents of young innovators, applied scientists, and entrepreneurs. We believe this is just the beginning.”

Dr. Sexton said, “As an institution, NYU is good at many things. One is taking a program or a school or even an entire university to the next level of excellence. We often see the promise of greatness where others fail to see it; and, when we do, we act on it. That is the outlook that Chandrika and Ranjan Tandon have too. They understand how dynamic our School of Engineering is and how their gift can accelerate its magnificent trajectory. This will transform engineering at NYU and will have an impact that will reach far beyond its students and faculty, beyond even NYU. It will boost New York City’s — and especially Brooklyn’s — growing tech sector and, most of all, it will yield generations of innovators who, connected to NYU’s global network, will solve pressing and challenging problems throughout the world. I am immensely grateful to Chandrika and Ranjan.”

NYU Board of Trustees Chair Martin Lipton said, “On behalf of the NYU community, let me express my and our enormous gratitude to Chandrika and Ranjan Tandon. For many reasons I treasure my personal relationship and friendship with Chandrika and Ranjan. In addition, Chandrika stands out among the trustees not just for her extraordinary generosity, and not just for the conviction she so clearly demonstrates in the School of Engineering’s bright future, but also for her selfless involvement with the University community. Seldom have I seen someone who relishes her role as a Trustee more and who takes her responsibilities as seriously. Chandrika has been an enormous help to me in dealing with a number of the most important issues the Board has faced. As I look back over many decades of association with NYU, few developments will bring me as much satisfaction as restoring engineering to the University. And that’s why I am especially gratified by the Tandons’ wonderful gift: because it will help propel engineering at NYU so far. It is only fitting that the school will bear the name of people who are so visionary.”

William Berkley, Chair-designate of the NYU Board of Trustees, said, “This is an extraordinary gift, one that will ensure that engineering will be a center of excellence and a continuing source of vitality and entrepreneurial spirit for NYU as a whole. Though this gift is striking for its generosity, it is not Chandrika and Ranjan’s first gift to NYU, but it is emblematic of how their giving is special in three important ways: they make gifts that are entrepreneurial and cross-disciplinary and that they know will have an impact; their giving goes to great ideas, not just to institutions to which they have longstanding ties; and their gifts are indicative of the commitment they show to NYU in so many, many ways. The School of Engineering, the Board of Trustees, and the entire NYU community will always be grateful to them for their enormous generosity.”

“The Tandons' extraordinary act of generosity is remarkable not only because of the size of the gift, but also because it recognizes the importance of a school with which they had no prior affiliation,” said Dean Sreenivasan. “Engineering is at the core of so many aspects of our lives, and the Tandons' generosity will heighten our school’s already significant transformative role in the economy, medical advances, communications, and applied sciences. It is clear that the School is poised for higher levels of excellence. As a fellow native of India, I am deeply moved that the Tandons have chosen to support our path to academic excellence in this way and hope that their gift will inspire other successful Indians wherever they have chosen to live, to engage in large-scale philanthropy.”

Andrew Hamilton, NYU’s President-designate, said, “As a chemist, I understand full well the important role that engineering and applied sciences play in the university environment. I am absolutely delighted by this enormously generous gift, and, as I step into the presidency of NYU, I look forward to working closely with the Tandons in the years to come to fulfill their gift’s great promise for advancing engineering at NYU.”

Strengthening the School of Engineering

Funds from the gift will be used to:

• further enhance programs for which NYU engineering is already nationally recognized, including wireless, cybersecurity, and digital education and gaming

• boost other programs, including bio-engineering, digital media, urban issues, and materials

• enhance interdisciplinary programs such as financial engineering, technology management and innovation, and entrepreneurship in important areas such as clean energy, and

• hire new faculty, among other goals

Since affiliating with NYU in 2008, the School of Engineering (formerly the independent Polytechnic University) has seen significant improvements, including:

• Admissions: applicants for freshman admission have nearly tripled. Applicants, who were predominantly from the New York region previously, now come from 53 countries and 45 states.

• Fundraising: annual fundraising has increased by over 250% (exclusive of the Tandon gift)

• Investment and new space: NYU has invested approximately $100 million in engineering and added over 200,000 sq. ft. of new space

• New programs: New programs that include bio-engineering, in collaboration with NYU’s College of Dentistry and School of Medicine; the GovLab, which uses technology to democratize government decision making; the Center for Interdisciplinary Studies in Security and Privacy, which aligns engineering with psychology, law, and business; NYU Wireless, which works across fields to create the next generation of cellular communication, including the 5G spectrum; NYU MAGNET, the media and games network research and teaching center; and the NY State Resilience Institute for Storms & Preparedness, created to help prepare for and respond to extreme weather.

About the NYU Tandon School of Engineering

The NYU Tandon School of Engineering dates to 1854, when the NYU School of Civil Engineering and Architecture as well as the Brooklyn Collegiate and Polytechnic Institute (Widely Known as Brooklyn Poly) were founded. Their successor institutions merged in January 2014 to create a comprehensive school of education and research in engineering and applied sciences, rooted in a tradition of invention, innovation, and entrepreneurship.

The school has 2,264 undergraduates and 2,738 graduate students, and 180 full-time faculty within 10 academic departments.

In addition to programs at its main campus in downtown Brooklyn, it is closely connected to engineering programs in NYU Abu Dhabi and NYU Shanghai, it operates business incubators in downtown Manhattan and Brooklyn, it houses a robust K-12 STEM Education Center, and it thrives on interdisciplinary programs jointly with the rest of NYU.

Otapliroy Social Networks Headcanons

Aka “How does our poly ship deal with haters online”, with the help of @puppysicle. I tried to translate our conversation into a proper post

Under read more because of course it ended up being long :’D

I can imagine it in the continuation of my Youtube AU for Pliroy. JJ and Yuri are dating, and eventually end up inviting Otabek in their couple because they both crushed hard on him

JJ being open about being pan and poly, he received several comments on his previous videos about him “faking” just to “look cool”, “not being really gay” and “doing it to please sjw” etc.

So one day he shows all those comments and he’s like “Now I’m going to “force myself” even more because WELCOME OTABEEEEEK” *Otabeks come on-screen to sit on the bed with them* And he gives him lots of hugs and kisses because he’s so happy (Yuri is sat on the other side of JJ so harder for him to do)

They then would talk about how they started dating and would answer actual questions on polyamory

They often get hate tho. Like Yuri gets comments like “You’re only dating them for sex you want two dicks you cockslut”

And Yuri like, doesn’t take any shit.

"You know what ? Yes I do. I'm so done having to justify being in love with them and all. Fuck you. We post enough stuff that should make you understand we love each other and I don't want to go on again justifying myself. So you know what ? Yeah I love the sex and their dicks, and  you know what ? I have greater sex than you do" 

Alternatively, Beka and JJ receives comments like “So guys, how does it feel to share your own slut ?”

Before they have the time to reply and tell this person how they estimate and love Yuri and absolutely don’t think of him like that and won’t allow anyone to think of him that way, Yuri is already replying

"THE SLUT FEELS GREAT IF YOU WANT TO KNOW ASSHOLE THEY'RE WORTH SO MUCH MORE THAN THAT"

“Babe you were the one insulted here” “I’M YOUR HOE AND HAPPY TO BE” “Yuri please, you’re being embarrassing.”

JJ eventually tries to cam Yuri with cuddles

Some people would be like “Nah, it’s only Yuri dating the two of them. Otabek and JJ just like dat ass they don’t date they aren’t that gay”

Someone on tumblr would reblog the post with a ton of pictures of JJ and Beka kissing and cuddling commenting “Yes, sure, not dating at all”, and Yuri would reblog it with “FUCKING FINALLY”

He would also make a post to explain further : “Guys you have to realize that poly relationships aren't just one in the middle and the two others fucking them. We all fucking love each other and I see your homophobia accepting me and JJ and me and Otabek because they're "manly" and I'm more "feminine" and not accepting that both of them love each other because they're both "manly" but you know what ? That's homophobic as hell and bullshit and we're all males and  loving each other very much so fuck off"

Yuri is basically the president of the JJbek fanclub.

Sometimes people comment things like “I think Yuri looks happier with Otabek” or “JJ and Yuri are closer” and Yuri replies with “FUCK YOU. JJBEK IS BETTER”

“Are you shipping your bfs together ?” “SURE AS HELL I AM. AND GUESS WHAT ? MY SHIP IS FUCKING CANON !”

Yuri is in general super protective of his boyfriends and will fight anyone being mean to them.

JJ posts a lot of pictures of he with each of his boyfriends, or the three of them together, or just his boyfriends. With pretty filters and cute captions.

But eventually, the pictures featuring only Yuri and Otabek gets way more likes and comments like “omg dump JJ you're just so cute together !!”  “ yeah, why did you even got out with that asshole you're much cuter together”

It makes JJ sad but he tries to hide it to his boyfriends

But of course Yuri-king-of-social-medias-Plisetsky don’t miss those comments. He would show Beka and the two of them would go hug JJ.

Before Yuri unleash in the comments. 

"FIRST OF ALL : JJ ISN'T AN ASSHOLE AND IF YOU BELIEVE IT NEVER COMMENT ON OUR PICS ANYMORE BECAUSE WE LOVE HIM SO MUCHSECOND : WE'RE NOT YOUR SHIPPY FANTASIES. WE'RE REAL PEOPLE WITH REAL FEELINGS AND WE'RE LOVING EACH OTHER AND YOUR FUCKING COMMENTS HURT. SO I’M GOING TO BLOCK ALL OF YOU”

Beka’s like “You understand now why I hate SNS ?”

But eventually, it’s too much for him and he starts coldly roast the haters.

“Too bad this "asshole" is our lover that you just hurt with your nasty comment. Too bad that we're not here for you to jerk off on and scream about "how cute" we are and how we should go with this or this person so we'd be cute for you to consume. Really, sorry. Oh wait. I'm not."

"Guys guys, I just discovered a magical feature on this website. It's called "block these stupid haters forever and live an happier life with your "asshole boyfriend" " Bye bye guys”

He’d also post a sexy picture of JJ (the shirtless-with-pants-way-too-low) with a caption that reads “Wipe that drool off your chin. This asshole is ours”

If it repeats, Yuri would post a Jean-Jacques Leroy Appreciation post on Tumblr. With lots of pictures of them being domestic and cute.

And “Reasons why we should not drop this “asshole”: 

“First of all have you seen him? HAVE YOU TAKEN A GOOD LOOK ON THAT FINE SPECIMEN? That is some good shit. High quality. Husband material.”

"Second, he is not an asshole. But he does have a great ass and that's always a huge plus.”

“He's an actual huge doggo. And he gets along with out cat sooo..”

“There's a lot more but beka told me to cut the nsfw parts. Oh well”

*tons of pictures of the three of them being cute and happy followed by “This has been a PSA motherfuckers”

He would often reblog it “REMINDER THAT THIS POST IS STILL VALID”

Yuri no-chill Plisetsky

Sees Youtube comments like “jj/beka is so hot. I want him to be mine" and he'll be like "lol sucks to be you. These dorks are mine to cuddle with. Btw it feels absolutely amazing to be squished in between them. 10/10 experience. Wow."
