Ok ,anybody ask for that and I probably shouldn't make that my first tumbler post but here is my list of magic against modern guns and who would win in my opinion:
#1 Kane chronicles(riordanverse): would win like easy, Cast a simple spell is just a litlle more slower than trigger a gun and the effects are extremely powerfull when compared with any personal weaponry and the complex spells are a lot slower than high military tech but just lose in fire power to a atomic gun.
#2 fairies magic(hollyblackverse): the regular fae lose against guns without direct human control(drones and similars) or a lot of humans they with machine guns they depend a lot of direct contact to cast the spells but the very powerful fairies gain against atomic bombs and entire arms they are basically nature forces in """"human"""" bodies
#3 Harry Potter(jkrollingverse):It's complicated if is the magic level of the original saga will lost against any fire arm because to cast a spell need to say a entire word and need to be perfectly pronounced and effect don't is that good they usually just affect one person or object while guns are fast and can emulate two of the three unforgivable curses.Now if we consider the magic level of the fantastic beasts saga the witches won because they dont need to pronounce to cast and the spells have a wide effect than the spells from the original saga so they probably they can maybe lose to high military tech and just absolut lose to atomic bombs
#4 court of thorns and rose(sarahjayverse):it is a curious case because the feys would absolutely lose against low and high guns because the speed and destruction power but win against midle guns(tanks and aircrafts that aren't sonic... ) also because the speed
#5 land of stories: win against anything that isn't a nuclear bomb and maybe against that too but just the big individuals the normal witch and fairy will meet dificulty maybe lost again because the correlation between speed and effect the magic here for the common spell people is slow with terrific effects while the great people there are fast with terrific effects.
Sorry if was vague and simplistic I tried to avoid spoilers and i don't know very well make arguments without exemples

Bucky pinning you down so you can’t squirm and he’s just sitting inside you while he tortures your clit feeling you clench around him. He makes you cum over and over until he finally cums.
Overstimulation + super soldier stamina = …
- 🍯
Dear God, I know I just don't have it in me to behave during cock-warming. When it comes down to it, I genuinely have no patience at all 😵💫
"You..." Bucky begins, pressing you down onto the bed before gripping your ankles and forcing you to flip over onto your front. "Have a problem with control."
With your face turned away from him, you can't help but smile to yourself. No one has ever said it out loud but you know he's right.
Being in control is where you're most comfortable. No hands are safer than your own. Except maybe his. You know he won't fuck this up.
"And you..." He continues, gathering your wrists behind your back, holding them tightly with one hand. "Need to learn how it feels to have control taken from you. Do you understand?"
As soon as you begin to nod your head, you feel him start to tape around your wrists, holding them together behind your back. Once he's content they're secure, he sits on the edge of the bed, facing the mirror before he pulls you onto his lap.
"Legs spread over the top of mine." He orders and you do as you're told, not because you have to but because you want to.
You notice the way your cunt is already glistening in the mirror and you're almost embarrassed because he hasn't even touched you yet.
"Fuck, you're made for this." He groans, lining his cock up to your slick entrance and you wonder if he's holding his breath too while he slides into you, as deep as your bodies will allow.
You're obsessed with the sight in front of you; your own naked body, with your legs spread so far apart you can see how your cunt is stuffed full of him.
Being shorter though, your feet can't touch the ground like this. There's no way you'll get enough leverage to fuck yourself on him but as soon as you start to tell him that, he silences you with two thick fingers between your lips.
"I'm not letting you fuck me." His free hand roams over your body, squeezing your breasts, pinching your nipples and then settling between your spread thighs.
"I'm going to play with you. I'm going to see how much you can take. I'm going to work out exactly how you like your clit stroked and I'm going to do that until your legs are shaking and your body won't let you cum any more. Maybe then I'll fuck you but sweetheart, that will be hours from now." His breath is hot against the side of your face, his fingers slipping from your mouth to your waist while he starts to flick gently against your clit.
"I'm going to start slowly. I'm going to do everything I can to drag this out as long as possible. I can feel every clench and flutter of this pretty little cunt and I'm going to enjoy it until you're dripping over my balls." At this rate, it won't be long until you're dripping onto the carpet, never mind over him. You dreamed he'd want to take control like this but you never imagined the way your body would respond.
"And then, when you've cum more times than you can handle, I'm going to tell you that I love you while I fuck you like I don't."
Update: Part 2

Time for some monster-fucker art!
This is all the art I've commissioned from the amazing @yssakai for my Trollkin Lovers book series, which features trolls, orcs, and ogres who will cross the barriers of war and language for their human mates. (I've made each one a link to the respective book, which come with these as prints!)

So far this year I have read:
Tress of the Emerald Sea - Brandon Sanderson
The Way of Shadows (Night Angel trilogy#1) - Brent Weeks
A Shadow in the Ember - Jennifer L Armentrout
Currently reading:
Touched by Magic - Doranna Durgin
Ayoade on top - Richard Ayoade
Last Argument of Kings (First Law trilogy #3) - Joe Abercrombie
Brotherhood of the Wolf (Runelords #2) - David Farland
The three I have finished were really good for very different reasons. Tress will probably be a favourite for many years. And just picking up Last Argument of Kings I remember why I love Abercrombie. It is immediately gripping.
Ayoade on top is so disappointing though. Gonna finish it tonight/tomorrow but it is like a 2star read. I rarely give that bad ratings but it's just not working for me.

It’s insane how the books start with just 12 year old Val.
Who later grows up to be really, really depressed.
Great job there Skulduggery!👏

My brainrot today is thinking about just how incredible for a character Eowyn is.
Genuinely. The series might not have many female characters but the ones we do get go so fucking hard.
To me, Eowyn is literally the definition of defining being a woman for oneself. She rejects the roles she is given despite acknlowdging the importance and its mostly because she knows part of the reason is that she is a woman.
The reason why she is obsessed with Aragorn isn't because she loves him but because she wants what he has. She wants the freedom and courage and bravery that Aragorn has at every turn. She literally has multiple conversations during the Two Towers about how what she fears most is a cage. All this girl wants is the freedom to be and not be forced into a role. The best thing is that she literally gets that.
The segment of Return of the King about Eowyn and Faramir is literally about her piecing together what she truly wants. She doesn't want Aragorn. She wants freedom and the ability to choose. Faramir does nothing but encourage that in her. Their love story is literally one of the healthiest love stories I've seen in a long time because at the heart of it, their love is a place to return home to for both parties. Both go off to lead and help their people for a considerable amount of time before returning to each other but that does not diminish their bond. Even Faramir, I believe, falls in love with her bravery and dedication to her loved ones. The reason she went to Pelenor Fields and Gondor with the troops of Rohan was because she had things she wanted to fight for. She wanted to fight for herself, her people, and her loved ones. She is the one who protects Theoden after he is killed so that his body gets the treatment it deserves. She encourages Merry and helps him go to the battle because she sees her struggle in Merry. They feel helpless standing around when there are things to be doing.
Let's also not forget the fact that she was around Grima Wormtounge just as much as the King was. She was exposed to the same poison and awful words that eroded the king. It's even implied that her care for him is part of the reason why Theoden was savable when Gandalf showed up. She had the same power and bravery as everyone else even if she didn't see it in herself.
Then at the end of the day, SHE decides where she wants to go and what path she wants to walk. She walked the path of a warrior. The path of a princess/ruler. The path of a caretaker. But in the end she decides which elements truly mean something to her outside of gender definitions. That is what makes her character so incredible to me. In this she literally kills one of the biggest enemies in that battle with such a badass line.
#i could talk for ages about how i see the struggle of defining being a woman for oneself in her#she rejects the feminine roles given to her but she also doesnt quite want the masculine ones#she just wants the freedom to choose and have the same respect that men are given#she doesnt want to be belitted because she is a woman#thats literally what Faramir gives her and why she stays with him#Faramir loves her for her not anything else#he respects her as she does him#i am someone who is a woman but rejects the definitons of being a woman because they are toxic and caging#all i want is the freedom and respect of being a HUMAN being#i lend more masculine because that is where that freedom is more often but i also see how toxic that relam is too#niether side is good which is why i choose my own path and defintiom#the fact that eowyn gets such a similar story in a series written by a man in the mid 1900s is incredible#i am someone who would love to have more female characters but i do not want them at the expense of them being proper characters and humans#ive read a lot of fantasy women do not always get the agency they deserve#i would rather take fewer well written women then a bunch of poorly written female characters#lotr has that#eowyn arwen and galadriel are all given agency and the space to be their own individuals which makes them incredible characters#thats what i want out of books and ficition#god im making myself insane about my own thoughts lol#i could talk for ages im not kidding#eowyn#eowyn of rohan#lotr#lotr rambling#lord of the rings#the two towers#the return of the king

“It [The Lord of the Rings] is finished, if still partly unrevised, and is, I suppose, in a condition which a reader could read, if he did not wilt at the sight of it…now I look at it, the magnitude of the disaster is apparent to me. My work has escaped from my control, and I have produced a monster: an immensely long, complex, rather bitter, and very terrifying romance, quite unfit for children (if fit for anybody); and it is not really a sequel to The Hobbit, but to The Silmarillion.”
— J.R.R. Tolkien to Sir Stanley Unwin, 24 February 1950
#LOTR#Silmarillion#Tolkien#quotes#Tolkien I love you so much#*writes a book that becomes known as the pinnacle of the fantasy genre* “this is a disaster”#“quite unfit for children (if fit for anybody)”#how do I communicate to Tolkien's ghost that LOTR and the Silmarillion are both my favorite books?!?!?

Wreck it Ralph's hero's cuties fanart! (But it's them from the concept art)
Back when Felix looked more like a milk man than a repairman and Calhoun looked more like a knight than a space marine.
Calhoun concept design by: Minkyu lee
Felix concept design by: Mike Gabriel
I loved drawing their concept versions because looking at their original looks in the art book/behind the scenes is fascinating.
Please look up the original concept designs btw they're beautiful!
#Would it be a silly headcanon if I said they are different characters in another arcade who also fell in love like Felix and Calhoun did?#Like a knight from a fantasy adventure game marrying a milk man from an older game is soo cute!#wreck it ralph#Wreck it Ralph concept art#Concept art#Wreck it Ralph art book#wir fanart#wir#Wreck it Ralph fanart#Fanart of concept art#fix it felix jr#fix it felix#sergeant calhoun#hero's cuties#Hero's-cuties
