SOME HC'S ABT THIS FUGLY MAN 💗

Uhh no tw's i dont think? Also this is my opinion so if u dont agree w smth.. Ok ^^ idc!! :)

(Also some of these hc's (like 3) are inspired by sunlit6279 on here, their Loris hc's were like the only popular ones when i read them so i injected those into my veins and ran with it yay)

SFW AND NSFW!

• Hes so tall.. Taller than Steb, whom is taller than caitlyn, whom is 6'0 (1'88 cm's) AND wearing heels. I'll say hes around 200 cm's, which is like 6'6.. yeah...

• I feel like hes kinda clingy but not in a "Pissing all by yourself, handsome?" Way but more so that he just follows you around silently and subconsiously, hes always gotta be in the same room as you, no matter what ur doing. Exept maybe pissing.

• adding to that i think he'd love showering together, as previously stated hes like huge so unless ur shower is magic only one of u is getting wet at a time lol.

but hes perfectly fine with shivering in the corner, as long as he gets to just admire you and lather you up himself, he'll gladly wash ur hair for you 💗💗

• But PLEASE RETURN THE FAVOUR OMG. Scratch at his scalp with a fruity shampoo and hes a goner, zooked, in pure bliss, ascending. Sighing contently with his eyes closed.

• saw someone else on here (sunlit6279) mention that he probably has a bit of a kink for scents. As a homeless drinker himself i doubt he smells that nice often, and booze sure as shit doesnt. But then you come into his life, lingering in his nostrils, and he just cant get enough. I feel like its the sweet smells that get him.. Marschmellow, sugary pastries, flowers, wild berries and chocolaty scents, that kinda stuff got him weak.

• He'll nudge his nose right against the pulse point of your neck and just inhale, wherever you are, whatever you're doing. Or your wrist right before kissing your palm tenderly.

• Physical touch and acts of service!! LOVE LOVE LOVES CUDDLING. ANY POSITION. ITS THE BEST TO HIM. please just cradle his head and scratch his hair n beard. Please.

He'll do practically anything you ask him to. Feet hurting? Massage. Need tampons/pads? What size pussy, babes?😽 ur hungry? Sandwich :3 wanna take over the world? Whatever you say beautiful. ☺️

...Want him to cum inside? Oh thank god.. He was close to doing that already..

• Hes def really sensitive when it comes to intimacy, everywhere. Hes a grunter, grunts and heavy pants. In the crook of your neck, behind your shoulder, into your hair, forehead touching forehead, depends on the position. God i want him so bad.

• he a munch. Loves eating you out no matter what ur sex is. He gets so sloppy with it, licking up and down ur hole like a thirsty mutt, shaking his head side to side as you cum, teasing ur nipples with his thick fingers.

Speaking of, have y'all SEEN how big his hands are compared to Vi's? Whom is like an 'average sized' person. His hands would swallow yours whole, hold his pinkie or something its probably easier.

•Hes FIT too, broad shoulders, lean back, biceps and thighs bigger than ur head.. Slutty lil waist. after a nice shower he'll wrap u up burrito style in a towel and carry you bridal style to your bedroom to get dressed (⁎˃ᴗ˂⁎)

• On a more domestic note he loves your cooking, even if you kinda suck he still appreciates it so much. And if you're great at it hes grabbing seconds.. And thirds.

He would love to help you around in the kitchen aswell, hes a terrible cook himself, but he knows how to chop an onion ok? He'd much rather do it himself than see you cry from it. He knows ur not actually sad, but he doesnt want his babys eyes to sting :((

• Loves petnames so much!!!!!!!! He'll call you things like beautiful/handsome or gorgeous at the end of a sentence. But also uses hun or honey regularily.. Sometimes he will let a 'mama' slip, but not in a weird way. Especially if you have kids already or are pregnant you're his pretty mama, okay? OKAY?.

• i love his SINGULAR mattlock dangling over his forehead. I think its a mattlock anyway, it doesnt look like a regular braid at all.

Lol i just know he'd let u use him as ur personal fidget toy, i'd flick that thing all day, watch it dangle around and smack him in the eye LMAO

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

(HI!! Im probably gonna make a part 2 cuz i most likely have ALOT more to say abt him but uh i just brainfarted so have this 🤲 also hihi my askbox is open so go ahead and yap if u wanna. Fic ideas, headcanons, literally anything. Im probably gonna toot out some Steb hc's aswell cuz i have a few and i need that fishstick bad.)

the most unrealistic part of fall of the house of usher was trying to pretend that it's somehow gross that bruce greenwood's character has a young wife as if i too wouldn't marry bruce greenwood while in my mid twenties

My Funger Termina HC (pt 3)

The Funger fandom is full of little gay people, so here's my interpretation of the sexuality of the termina contestants!

Some of these may be controversial but to be fair, fear and hunger happens during 1942, they're clearly homophobic or homosexuals.

I don't personally HC anyone as trans, purely because since the game is literally in the finals of WW2 and some of the characters were raised on fascist countries, being trans would be a great weight on the characters history.

(Example: some people says that Daan, Levi or pav could be trans but it would ruin the army backstory since women couldn't be on the field -or open homosexuals, if we go to the chase- and being realistic, ANY woman would be brutally assaulted in the 20 century army surrounded by morally gray Men. It's okay tho if you like to HC them because you relate or want, I'm just an autistic girl on Tumblr)

But, I think that Marcoh, samarie and Tanaka (closeted and repressed) would totally be homosexuals

Marina and Olivia are bi girls

Daan and pav are just queers.

Daan has seen too much things to care about putting a label to it, but he doesn't care about gender at all. His gender or the people's he finds hot.

Anyways, people see his... Strange gender expression and immediately thinks he's a dandy or an affeminate. (I don't doubt he had to punch someone one time or two because they were calling him slurs even being literally on a date with his wife, not because he cares about other people's opinions but because they were making Elise uncomfortable)

Pav, oh pav. He would be openly homophobic, misogynist and racist just to fit in Bremen's fascist standards. (Despite being atrociously queer and going around with his boobs for the world to see lmao)

However, he wouldn't doubt to jump into anybody willing to get laid with him, just to have some fun. I personally don't think pav had or would have a deeper relationship than hook-ups, aside from his commitments issues and the fear of being vulnerable or hurting his partner, the man wants revenge too much to risk the possibility of being vulnerable to extortions.

Levi, O'saa and august are straight but they don't have anything against homosexuality.

Levi grow up surrounded by men far away from theirs wifes and too close to death, it was an open secret that many of them "raised their comrades moral" but he was too young to get involved and he didn't give a shit about his comrades sexual life as far as he still had heroin. (He probably doesn't have libido, not because he's asexual but because he's anedonic by his addiction. I'll expand it later on -maybe- part 4)

He actively calls pav the F slur when the lieutenant is not listening, just because he pisses him off. Anyways, he doesn't have almost any sexual education so he doesn't even know how a woman's bottom should look like, he doesn't have any genital preference. As long as she's pretty she's a woman and, being fair, even if he likes a girl he's afraid to talk to women so... Yeah.

O'saa and august have traveled across the whole world and have seen every type of degeneracy, culture and people. They don't care at all about two people of the same sex getting laid.

Maybe and just maybe O'saa may be aromantic or maybe he just don't like being vulnerable enough to have a partner.

Abella is an ally

Before I get crucified: I love the idea of a hot butch lesbian, but Abella says a few times things related to have a family and slightly misogynist things typical of the time

("this place could really use the touch of a woman" -two history house (I think)

"what I am gonna do when I get out of this place? I think I would like to settle head and form a family" (something like that) -white bunker)

I think she wouldn't feel so ashamed of her masculinity and lack of validation as a woman and a professional if she was in a lesbian community... but with straight insecure men... It's much more probable that she was ignored or even mocked at. (Even being canonically attractive)

She's the type of girly that says things like "love is love" or "for me, you're normal" (white woman trying to support twinks in the 40's ig) and she really supports trans kids, she understands the feeling of being invalidated and trying hard to be enough woman

Karin is bicurious.

Karin refuses to be a stereotype of Butch, she feels like she would be even more invalidated if her colleagues find out.

We all know that caligura is highly homophobic and catholic (also Marcoh, pav, Henrik, Olivia, Abella, and low-key Karin, they're all all-mer believers in some level) but I still thinking he definitely has touched a man before (most probably assault one. Like the 'show of dominance' in the church of all-mer) Type of bastard that would like femboys in the modern times yk?

However, there are also some other participants who could say homophobe shit out loud and they are: pav, Levi, Tanaka, Karin and black calleb. Mostly because the culture they grow up with.

[ultravioletqueen]

I'm going to talk about the founding family of the Rose Academy! And by the way, I'll officially introduce this cute ship.

Magnus Wishfoll is the director/headmage of the Rosas Academy and its founder, don't be fooled by his appearance as a man in his 30s, the man is at least 300 years old.

Magnus is a theatrical and somewhat dramatic man but quite charming, he knows when to get tough and takes his responsibilities as director very seriously (learn something Crowley) since he knows that his actions can affect his students.

Magnus studied magic all his life, his parents were very well-known magicians in Briar Valley and when they died he used all his knowledge to be able to extend his life, it was thanks to this research that he met his future wife Astraea.

Magnus founded the Rosas Academy to be able to teach the new generation all his knowledge so that his parents' legacy never dies, he considers himself the protector of his family's legacy.

Astraea is part of the Briar Valley royalty, Magnus' curiosity and intrigue was what initially attracted her but then it was impossible not to fall completely in love with him, Astraea is like the Jessica Rabbit to his Roger Rabbit.

Astraea is a gracefull and elegant woman, however behind closed doors she can be more silly and sarcastic with people she trusts, she is not afraid to share her opinions no matter how controversial they are.

Magnus and Astraea only had one daughter, a girl named Rosa Wishfoll, the pride and joy of both, before her they have been childess for decades, so they're quite protective and overly loving with her.

Rosa grew up being super loved by her parents, although from a young age she had to accept the idea that most of the people around her would die before her (being a hybrid she will live longer than any human) so she is always afraid to make new friends because of this.

Rosa is kind, polite and very innocent, she does not know malice and it is her greatest weakness as well as her greatest strength. Rosa loves making handmade gifts for the people she loves very much, especially things sewn/knitted by her (she likes to do it the old fashioned way with old machines or even spinning wheels)

Rosa met Malleus before the events of the game, her parents and Lilia being good friends for years, so they met through this connection.

Rosa was always quite sweet to Malleus and this made him curious and intrigued by her, which made them develop a strange but cute friendship.

Rosa and Malleus share their fascination with gargoyles (although Rosa is more into the architecture field) and they like to have their nightly walks in Briar Valley.

Malleus and Rosa are happy that even though they have a similar life span (in fact Rosa is older than Malleus by two years, he is 178 and she is 180) and both will always be there for each other when the others are gone.

It's obvious that Rosa and Malleus like each other a lot but neither of them knows how to make the first move, which frustrates their friends and family quite a bit😅

Magnus and Astraea initially didn't know what to think about the friendship between these two, being that they were afraid that Malleus was manipulating or using her, but when they saw that Rosa had him practically tamed (lol) they realized that Malleus wasn't going to do anything bad to their daughter.

LILIA IS THEIR NUMBER 1 SHIPPER AND THERE'S NO WAY TO DENY IT!!!

Rosa studies at her father's academy and the main reason she didn't enroll earlier is because her parents wanted to wait for Rosa to lose her fear of making friends and wait for her mental maturity to be greater, apart from the fact that they were worried about her overflowing innocence.

Rosa belongs to faeroses, she wanted to apply to dormleader but was rejected because 1) they didn't want it to seem like Magnus had favoritism by putting her as leader and 2) Rosa is more of a follower than a leader lol.

Rosa used to be friends with saskia, but this friendship was based on saskia taking advantage of her innocence and making fun of her behind her back, this remained like this until Rosa finally had enough and stopped talking to her.

Rosa's unique magic is called "I give you a gift" and allows her to give people powers or make inanimate objects come to life, she's a buff with legs😂

(Español)

¡voy a hablar sobre la familia fundadora de la academia rosas! Y de paso introduzco de forma oficial a esta lindura de ship.

Magnus Wishfoll es el director/headmage de la academia de rosas y su fundador, que no te engañe su apariencia de hombre en sus 35, el hombre tiene 300 años minimo.

Magnus es un hombre teatral y algo dramatico pero bastante encantador, sabe cuando ponerse duro y toma sus responsabilidades como director muy en serio(aprende algo crowley) ya que sabe que sus acciones pueden afectar a sus estudiantes.

Magnus estudio magia toda su vida, sus padres eran magos muy reconocidos en briar valley y cuando estos fallecieron el uso todos sus conocimientos para poder alargar su vida, fue gracias a esta investigación que conoció a su futura esposa Astraea.

Magnus fundó la academia rosas para poder enseñar a la nueva generación todos sus conocimientos y que así el legado de sus padres jamás muera, el se considera el protector del legado de su familia.

Astraea es parte de la realeza de briar valley, la curiosidad e intriga de Magnus fue lo que la atrajo en un inicio pero después fue imposible no enamorarse de él completamente, Astraea es como la Jessica rabbit de su Roger rabbit.

Astraea es una mujer fina y elegante, sin embargo a puertas cerradas puede mostrar ser más burlona y sarcástica con gente de confianza, ella no tiene miedo de compartir sus opiniones por más polémicas que sean.

Magnus y Astraea solo tuvieron una hija, una niña llamada rosa wishfoll, el orgullo y alegría de ambos, antes de su nacimiento sus padres estuvieron décadas sin hijos por lo que son bastante protectores y super amorosos con ella.

Rosa creció siendo super amada por sus padres, aunque desde joven tuvo que aceptar la idea de que la mayoría de la gente a su alrededor moriría antes que ella(al ser híbrida ella vivira más tiempo que cualquier humano) por lo que siempre tiene miedo de hacer nuevos amigos por esto.

Rosa es amable, educada y muy inocente, ella no conoce la malicia y es su mayor debilidad al mismo tiempo que su mayor fortaleza. Rosa adora hacer regalos a mano para la gente que quiere mucho, especialmente cosas cocidas/tejidas por ella(le gusta hacerlo a la antigua con máquinas viejas o incluso ruecas de costura).

Rosa conoció a Malleus antes de los eventos del juego, siendo sus padres y Lilia buenos amigos desde hace años, por lo que se conocieron gracias a esta conexión.

Rosa siempre fue bastante dulce con Malleus y esto hizo que el sintiera curiosidad e intriga por ella, lo que hizo que desarrollarán una extraña pero linda amistad.

Rosa y Malleus comparten su fascinación por las gárgolas(aunque Rosa es más por el ámbito de la arquitectura) y les gusta tener sus caminatas nocturnas en briar valley.

Malleus y Rosa están contentos de que aunque sea tienen un plazo de vida similar(de hecho Rosa es mayor que malleus por dos años, el tiene 178 y ella 180) y ambos siempre estarán el uno para el otro cuando los demás se vayan.

Es evidente que Rosa y Malleus se gustan mucho pero ninguno sabe como dar el primer paso, lo cual frustra bastante a sus amigos y familiares😅

Magnus y Astraea en un inicio no sabían que pensar de la amistad entre estos dos, siendo que tenían miedo que Malleus la estuviera manipulando o usando, pero cuando vieron que Rosa lo tiene prácticamente domado(lol) se dieron cuenta que Malleus no iba a hacerle nada malo a su hija.

¡¡¡LILIA ES SU SHIPPER NUMERO 1 Y NO HAY FORMA DE NEGARLO!!!

Rosa estudia en la academia de su padre y la razón principal por la que no se inscribió antes es porque sus padres querían esperar a que Rosa perdiera el miedo a hacer amigos y esperar a que su madurez mental fuera mayor, aparte de que estaban preocupados por su desbordante inocencia.

Rosa pertenece a faeroses, ella quiso aplicar a dormleader pero fue rechazada porque 1)no querían que pareciera que Magnus tuviera favoritismo al ponerla como líder y 2) Rosa es más seguidora que lider lol.

Rosa solía ser amiga de saskia, pero esta amistad se basaba en saskia aprovechándose de su inocencia y burlándose de ella a sus espaldas, esto se mantuvo así hasta que Rosa finalmente tuvo suficiente y dejó de hablar con ella.

La magia única de Rosa se llama "te doy un don" y le permite dar poderes a la gente o hacer que objetos inanimados cobren vida propia, ella es un buff con patas😂

_________________________________________

This is a mistake.

Well, not for The White Fang himself. Sakumo knows sooner or later he needs to find a new mother for his soon after his wife died. He always knew it but it's still pain him.

That was until he met you.

Young, cheerful, energetic and such an outspoken person. He knew for the fact that choosing you wasn't a mistake even though he met you at the bar. You were dancing happily alone, flirting with several Shinobi to bought you a drink or two before you landed by his side, drunk and blabbering nonsense.

One thing led to another, you both had a one night stand right back at his hotel. The next day was hell. You tried to get away from him but he caught you first. Every one knows that you can't get away from THE White Fang of the Leaf.

So now here you are, being his wife (controversially young at that), the mother of his son and his cute housewife. Sakumo knows that you're perfect for the role. You learn stuff quickly, and now you're the perfect matriarch for the Hatake household.

Kakashi likes you. Not that you care if he didn't, that kid is a tough nut to crack at first. But after several persuasion (bribe) he comes through. Even at two years old he still can't leave your side.

"Kashi no!" You said before running towards him. You push Kakashi away, letting the lukewarm tea fall on to your forearm. You sigh when the small kid looking at you, eyes widen with wonder.

"Troublemaker." You rolled your eyes before checking him. After finding nothing's wrong with him, you began to bring him with you.

That's usually your morning routine. Sakumo often leaves the house for days since he has missions that he needs to completed. You'd stay with Kakashi, taking care of him, teaching him and make sure to keep him out from the dangerous part of the Hatake compound.

Marrying The White Fang is fun? It is fun if you hate him. He spent most of his time on mission than sleeping at home.

"Your dad won't come back yet. I need your cooperation okay? Be a good boy or I'll make sure Pakkun won't play with you today." You said, holding out your pinky finger for him.

Kakashi pouted and look away. He sure knows the threat will ended up becoming true but he didn't want to make any promises. This young Hatake sure is a brat.

"No Pakkun then." You said when the boy didn't want to meet your eyes. You put him down on the floor before going to grab the cleaning supplies.

"A-Ahh!" His incoherent words making you smile. You turned your head around to face him and holding out your pinky finger for him.

"Good boy." You said when he promised.

Well, wasn't that hard to raise a kid. Kakashi is an easy kid after all, except when he already knows how to walk and when he acted like a brat.

Night came quickly. You put Kakashi in his room, sang him a lullaby until he's asleep before going back to your room. You made sure to rub the night lotion on your body before brushing your hair.

"Babe." Sakumo called. His white hair is wet and few droplets of water drop on the mat. He quickly dry his hair. He just got back from his mission. Usually he would go for a few days but this mission takes up so much of his time.

"We should do something about that habit of yours. Maybe some day I would hit you for abandoning me in the middle of the night and came back like nothing happened." You rolled your eyes as you apply the strawberry chapstick on your lips. You didn't even care to look at him.

It's his fault anyway.

You heard him laugh. Sakumo stood behind you and kneel. His hands slowly massaging your back before he pull your hair roughly, making you wince in pain. You glare at him, gritting your teeth tightly as he kissed your cheek.

"You don't want to be a brat right now (y/n). I'm tired." He said before pulling you into a kiss. He knows that you're mad, he just need to fuck that attitude out of your system for now.

You manage to do a good job for not opening your mouth to welcome his tongue. Sakumo bit your lower lip harshly, making you groan. He took the opportunity to push his tongue through your lips.He deepens the kiss, sucking on your tongue, his hand gripping your hair tightly and the other one on your rear. He grab it hard before slapping it once.

"Think before you speak baby. I would hate to punish you tonight. Kakashi needs you tomorrow." He smile before letting you go. You gritted your teeth before wiping your mouth, hoping to erase his kiss.

Sakumo got on the futon. He patted the empty space next to him. You could see from the dim moonlight, his usual smile and the black kimono that exposed his torso.

"Come." He said, no, ordering you.

You blow the candle off before going to him. He raised the blanket and welcome you to lay on the futon with him. Sakumo quickly pull you into a hug. A quick kiss soon follow through.

"I miss you." He said, kissing your neck.

You didn't reply to his declaration until you felt his big hand grabbing your rear. The grip is tight, a subtle threat for you to not be a brat now.

"Miss you too." You said halfheartedly. Sakumo smile at your halfhearted declaration.

"Don't be mad baby. You know I had too." He said as his hands slowly roaming all over your body.

Sakumo is a widow before meeting you. He knows basically everything about female body. He knows how to melt your anger. He slow undo the knot on your kimono, letting the fabric exposing your body. His hand went straight to your sweet pussy. His eyes widen when he realized that you're wearing nothing under it.

"Dirty girl." He said. He slide his middle finger on your slit, deliberately slow to see your reaction. As he thought, your face twisted into something before a small whimper leaving your mouth.

Sakumo smile when you tried to clench your thighs together. He easily overpowered you by planted on finger inside your pussy after pushing your legs apart. Your mouth widen with and 'O' shape at the sudden intrusion. Needy whimpers leaving your mouth as he began to thrusting it in and out of your pussy.

"S-saku..." You choked on your moans when he inserted another finger. Sakumo is enjoying your reaction.

The wet squelching sound sounded like a trophy for Sakumo. He never failed to make his wife's pussy the wettest she'd ever experienced. He didn't wasted any time as he dive right into your nipples. Sakumo used his free hand to clamps on your mouth tightly as his tongue busy lapping on your bud. Your sweet cries is too loud for tonight. Sakumo afraid that his son might wake up.

You're his whiny little slut after all. Always so vocal, always so sensitive even to a lightest touch. He couldn't expect more from you.

"Slow down baby. Didn't want Kakashi to be awake right?" He asked as his eyes looking into your teary ones.

He enjoyed this, you know it. The way his hand clamps on your mouth, the way he makes your pussy throbs and wet is like he's punishing you. But he isn't, he simply doing this to make up for the time that he left you alone at night for his mission.

Sakumo inserted another finger. You can take more fingers. Of course you can, you're his little slut after all. He moved all three fingers inside your pussy in an erratic speed, making you moans even harder. Tears beginning to stream down your face. Sobs leaving your mouth as his thumb circling your clit in an unforgiving manner.

Your body shakes as you felt your orgasm getting near. You swear that you couldn't take this teasing any longer. The way he circles your clit and thrusting his fingers into your pussy making you loose your mind. You need to cum, now.

"Not yet baby. You don't need to cum." He said. He could feel your walls clenching hard around his fingers like the slut you are. He felt like his fingers almost break and he finally pulling them out.

You look at him, confused as he pulled his fingers out. Sakumo chuckled at your pouty face. Your sniffles began to replace your sobs. He changed his position, pushing your legs to your chest and letting your wet pussy being exposed to the hot summer night. He lightly blow air to your wet pussy just to see it twitch.

"S-saku..." You sobs, tears streaming down your face. You need more.

MORE !

"You can handle my cock now right? Sure you can." He said. Sakumo rub your chubby pussy with his palm, making you whimper loudly. He positioned his tip to your hole.

Sakumo used the same hand to stroke his cock. The wetness from your pussy making it easier for him. His groans getting louder at every second before he stops. His tip leaking with precum already. Tears prickling in the corner of your eyes as you saw the angry red tip. His veiny shaft stood proudly, slapping against his abs.

Sakumo sure is lean in build but he's packing. His dick stood tall at 9.5 inches, 2.5 inch in width. Enough to make you walk funny for a few days.

"Don't be too loud." He said before ramming his cock inside of your pussy. The bulbous tip sliding inside your pussy with ease despite your small hole.

A sudden screams leaving your mouth as his cock stretching your walls. It's too big. Sakumo close his eyes, enjoying your warm hole before he began to move. He didn't need you to adjust to his size. He knows you can take it. He made sure to hit the deepest part of your cervix, just like you like it.

His speed isn't that fast nor slow, it's just right. Sakumo likes to take his time with you, likes to make sure that he didn't cum early. He knows it would be hard not to cum the moment he enters your pussy. Your tight little hole is just right for him.

" Ah! Ah! Ah!" You yelled as his tip hitting your cervix repeatedly. Your vision became hazy from the tears. A black dots appears at every thrust.

It hurts but it's so good. You couldn't describe it.

"Don't be so loud baby. Are you that dumb to understand huh?" He said as he slaps your face. Sakumo uses his free hand to choke you. He pressed his palm down your throat, hard enough for pleasure but not too tight that it'll cut your breathing circulation.

Your choked moans became louder, it's so good. So good that your drool begin to escape your mouth.

"S-so... Ah! Ah!" You couldn't form a single coherent word. Your eyes rolled into the back of your head as you feel a tight knot in your stomach.

Sakumo smirks as he felt your orgasm nearing. The way your walls clenching hard around his cock making him fastened his pace. He knows you're near.

"You wanna cum baby? Huh? Cum.... Fucking cum on my cock!" He said as he slammed his cock inside your pussy, his balls slapping your ass repeatedly.

"A-Ahh! Fu-fuck! Fuck!" You cried out. Your legs shakes violently before you felt something bursting from your inside. Your pussy convulsing as you cum on his dick.

Sakumo closed his eyes tightly before hitting your walls in an erratic movements. At his last thrust, Sakumo finally emptied his cum inside of your pussy. Thick ropes of his cum painted your walls. Sakumo made sure to thrust his cock inside a few times to make sure your womb is full of his cum. He collapses on top of your body.

"Fuck... Hah... B-baby...." He panted before kissing you. He's still balls deep inside of you.

Sakumo kiss you roughly, couldn't hide his actual feeling anymore. He misses you so much. One week being away from you is torture. He bite down your lower lip before pulling his cock out from your pussy.

As soon as he pulled his cock out, his cum begin to spill out from your hole. He 'tsk', thinking that it's such a waste for his strong seeds. He slaps your chubby pussy before gathering the cum and push it back inside of your hole.

"T-there..." He said while panting. Sakumo kneel in front of you, his hand on his still hard cock.

" Clean this baby." He only need to told you once before you quickly get on your knees and clean it. He like how desperate you are for him.

Sakumo smile as you take his whole length inside your mouth, slowly sucking his dick and cleaning the shaft before looking up. Your teary eyes and snotty face became visible.

"It's clean Saku." Your raspy voice said. Sakumo patted your head before letting you lay back on the futon. He wipe the hair that were sticking to your face away. He pinch your cheeks.

"Are you satisfied? Still mad?" He asked with the sweetest voice. Sakumo drape the blanket on your body and his before pulling you into a hug.

"No more." You said as you hug him too. You snuggle your head close to his neck, inhaling his scent with your eyes close. Sakumo put his hand on your rear and patted it softly like he patted Kakashi to sleep.

"Sleep baby." He said before closing his eyes. Sakumo felt at ease. He knows you're so easy to pleased.

His babygirl won't be mad for so long. After all, he's the only one who knows how to handle her.

the thought was put into my brain and now i must give birth to it to get it out, I'm way too tired to formulate well, and i don't have energy to write about Eva or Kyrie, i hope I'll do it later, you can add on if you want to. i was thinking about how different patterns of pain and how the moms deal with it. Like, it's not just "i was hurt so I'm gonna hurt ya", it's more nuanced and complex.

With Rosa is about being burdened with other people's responsibility and/or violent loss of innocence/purity of some kind. Like, the mildest example is the dish on, in the ep2 chapel scene where they found the bodies, I'll just put the whole thing here, bc it'll be easier than explaining

[ Rosa remembered a gross out meal, a turkey that had been served at her own birthday when she was a young girl.

When it had been cut with a knife, from the inside, things she loved, but which she had not heard about at all... bright-red, bright-red... ketchup omelet-rice had poured out like blood-stained maggots, buwaa, dripping, slimy, pulpy, sticky!! ]

About being responsibility of is kinda obvious with Maria's father, she trusted him, and was taken advantage of, and now she's gotta pay off his debts. But also, in a way, by Beatrice Kuwadorian. Hear me out, i love Beatrice Kuwadorian and want her to have good life as the other guy, but she still, through no fault of her own, relied on 14 yo to save her from abusive environment. A 14 yo who was in very similar abusive environment, they literally share a father! And it was also violent loss of innocence because she saw a girl die and assumed responsibility for it! The pattern!

And she goes about it by doing sorta same thing, in ep1, when we first see Rosa slap Maria, Battler tries to stop her, and Rosa tells him "to think about her [Maria's] future" and stuff like that, she's burdening him with responsibility of caring about her daughter's future! And, also, yeah, she relies on Maria for emotional support, she expects that Maria will forgive her even though Rosa herself doesn't think she deserves it, it became Maria's responsibility, and it also goes for loss of innocence, i hope i don't need to explain that one, i just remembered the "Sakutaro is dead" page and what effect it had on Maria, and i can't talk about it.

Then we have Natsuhi. I think for Natsuhi the pattern is about humiliation and being treated as subhuman for something she has no power over. It's kinda obvious, i don't know if i need to explain, but i think about Natsuhi more than normally ppl do, so just as precaution I'll say examples.

1. Bit controversial for me, but generally her born family. Like, we don't know about any instances of humiliation bc we don't know anything abt that time, but we do know that at some point Natsuhi didn't agree with her mother's behaviour but then had a change of heart. I think it was "discipline", even Natsuhi says that her born family was strict

2. Her marriage circumstances. She literally just was born into he priest family, what the fuck, kinzo, she was 17, she should have been doing her homework

3. The way she was treated because she couldn't get pregnant.

4. The way she is still treated by Eva because she isn't perfect, because her servants aren't perfect and make mistakes sometimes.

5. The way Erika treated her in ep5, especially when she denies this particular statement of Natsuhi "i loved my husband! I kept this emotion to myself, it was too intimate. Do i need proof that I'm in love?"

6. Krauss sexist treatment of her.

Natsuhi never intentionally hurt ppl bc of it, her main coping mechanism is her pride, humiliation becomes pride, she prides herself on being a good wife, a good daughter, good mother etc, she prides herself on upholding and fitting the rules and morales she cares about and she was taught. So as a way of upholding these rules she enforces them, with Jessica, her heart is in the right place, but she's still doing the same thing she suffered from, she's scolding Jessica for being the way she is, she strict with Shannon in particular, Shannon has no power over how clumsy she is, but it's still Shannon's fault in Natsuhi's paradigm. I also need to talk about the whole baby thing. Natsuhi was heavy with shame and resentment so she couldn't see baby as properly human or care for it because it became symbol of her humiliation, of "her failure as a woman".

[crystalelemental]

Full tier list is here, breakdown of D-tier. I can generally be inclined to like these ones, but you know. They're a little lacking.

Mallow: Couldn't tell you why, but I cannot get into her games iteration. Anime Mallow's cool, and dating Lillie.

Chuck: I love Johto, I'm a bit biased.

Cheren: My wife will be mad, but I think he's kinda bland. His arc doesn't feel like it goes very far.

N: Now this is potentially controversial. I don't really care about N. I think he's kind of uninteresting. There are tidbits of interest, but I think he fails to seriously stick the landing as a dude with stuff going on, and is also like weirdly belligerent when you disagree with him on literally anything.

Pryce: Johto fan, sorry.

Melli: Listen. He's a bitch. I kinda love that for him.

Dreyden: Neat dragon man.

Roark/Kiawe: Sure.

Brycen: I kinda like that he acts as a villain, but otherwise not doing much.

Roxie: I owe an apology to someone, but I stand by it. She's not that interesting to me.

Juniper: she's a decently fun professor figure.

Arezu: she's kinda cute, has a bit of attitude, the game doesn't lean into much with her though.

Ryme: I couldn't tell you. I just didn't feel it. I'm not happy about it either. This is the unfair one.

Olympia: uninteresting.

Grusha: Volkner vibes, but at least he feels young and like there's a reason for his ennui given his snowboarding career's end.

Acerola: kinda quirky but does very little.

Tulip: just doesn't exude much.

Zisu: she's fun enough.

Kamado: Kind of a shithead but I think for interesting reasons. Still don't like him.

Dendra/Miriam: Sure, I'll ship that on the side.

Mai: Daybreak made me like her less. Oops.

Rose: Dude you are so close to being Lysandre-esque but you just miss the mark.

Colress: I legitimately don't know what the point of you is. Seriously, why are you here? What's your goal?

Brawly/Sidney/Phoebe/Aaron: they're fine.

Brock: The anime did not grip me, and he does nothing otherwise.

Nessa: Just never felt the connection.

Oak: "Oh, the most esteemedest professor ever who-" did fuck-all. His only achievement was the Pokedex, and invention we find out is at least two centuries old. Get with it.

Allister: boring.

Karen/Bruno: E4 members I feel very little about.

Elm: I always felt some like because Johto but he really is like the least interesting professor in some ways.

Milo/Byron: sure.

Raifort: Listen to me. I should love her but for some reason I cannot get into it. I could not tell you what the blockage is, I just cannot connect with her.

Hapu: we need to talk about her hands. Those are not hands a human has.

Villain flunkies: these ones have personality!

Zossie/Dulse: I don't remember Ultra Moon's goons but I hated them. These two had a cuter dynamic so I had a bit of attachment, but very little.

Drayton: kind of a punk bitch. I am down for his dynamic with Carmine, but not because of him. I think she should break his bones.

Palmer: he's fine I guess.

Crispin: exudes nothing.

Riley/Marley: sure.

Saturn/Jupiter: less personality than Mars.

Petrel: My man, but he is still a Rocket.

Plumeria: being Team Mom to the goon squad does nothing for me.

Camera lady: Literally forgot her name. WAIT PERRIN! I don't care about her. I do not find her pretty and hate her outfit.

Green: she has some quirkiness but they don't really let her do anything fun.

Protag squad: sure.

Masters squad: Masters OCs do nothing for me, sorry. I think gacha OCs are more in the way than anything.

Ranking Plays I have read for fun and for school (as an honors English student)

Macbeth by William Shakespeare- I absolutely love this play. Its dramatic. It has an amazing villain. It's tragic. I haven't read it in a couple years but I'm planning on rereading it soon because of how much I love it.

A Raisin in the Sun by Lorraine Hansberry- I read this one for fun on request of my mother who loves it, and I really enjoyed it. I read the whole thing in one day and I felt it had many good themes including racial prejudices, pride, family, and putting the right things first.

Medea by Euripides-This is another play that I really like and honestly might be a sort of tie with A Raisin in the Sun. Part of why I love this play is it was written in ancient Greece and I'm a huge mythology nerd, but I love it for so many other reasons. First of all, this play is super ahead of its time. It centers around Jason's wife Medea but when he cheats on her and decides to marry a young princess, she decides to plot a revenge and kills his new girlfriend and his kids. Medea was a total feminist and really hit Jason when it hurt. This play was super controversial when it was first shown because of its feminist aspects which was not the societal norm.

A Midsummer Night's Dream by William Shakespeare- I read this play just for fun and enjoyed it. I read the whole thing in a night, and I don't have much to say about it other than I like it more than my Romeo and Juliet.

Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare-I don't care this is the "greatest love story" or whatever I HATE THIS PLAY. First of all, Romeo is a jerk and a terrible person. In the beginning of the play, he was mad because the girl he liked wanted to be a virgin and he said something like "she's too pretty to be a virgin" which is awful and makes her out like an item. Once he sees Juliet though, he completely forgets about her and kisses Juliet even though they just met, and she said no multiple times. Also, Juliet is 13 turning 14 and Romeo is led on to be an older teen. The famous balcony scene wasn't really romantic at all and the two of them got married within 24 hours of meeting each other. A couple hours after this Romeo kills Juliet's cousin Tybalt as revenge for killing his best friend Mercutio and is banished from Verona. The entire rest of the play is him whining and Juliet mourning because her father is making her marry another man. We all know what happens at the end, so I won't go into it, but I just genuinely hate this play. Romeo is super annoying and an overall terrible person, and him and Juliet's romance is super overhyped.

In the end of the day this is all just my opinion so don't get super mad at me. If you want to debate about anything I said in the comments, I won't get mad.

Also, maybe I'll rank other pieces of literature another time.

Be He Foe or Friend

Decided to start posting this here as well! (ao3)

Be He Foe or Friend is a Silmarillion choose your own adventure fic I've been writing for a little while now, and right now I have 3 rounds of chapters out (including the first one.) At the end of each chapter there is a choice, and the one you choose corresponds with which chapter you read next! Right now I have the next chapters on ao3 linked in the options at the bottom, and I'll be reblogging this post with the next chapters!

This is written in second POV, as if you, the reader, are Lalwen.

Chapter 1: Introductions

“You are still young and this is a big step, my darling Lalwen, but as my daughter and princess of the Noldor, it is time you start attending court and finding your role as a princess of our people. I know you are unsure, but I have every confidence that the people will adore you.” your father said encouragingly.

“Are you sure, atar? I fear due to the controversy of your and amil’s marriage I may be ill received not just in the court, but by the people if I begin to take a greater role…”

Finwë tucks a braid behind your ear, “do not fear my darling, Fingolfin and I will be with you the entire time, even Fëanor will be there today.”

You smile, take a shaky breath, and nod, “I suppose we should stop stalling, then.”

“Lalwen, my daughter, my darling, my precious. You are the one stalling, not me!” we laughed.

---

The court hall had always been lavishly adorned. Precious metals were inlaid into the very stone of the walls and floor, running like rivers and vines. The floor is a beautiful mosaic depicting the path the Noldor traveled from the very waters of Cuiviénen in the far east to the border of the home of the Noldor in the west, the white city of Tirion. The thrones sat on a raised dais, and upon each step a level of the city is depicted, until the top step, which shows the gardens outside this very hall, with the thrones in the middle sitting where the Court Hall would be depicted on the mosaic. 

Windows of vibrantly colored glass depicting scenes of the Noldor’s travels and crafts starting nigh a step up from the floor stretch fathoms up, nearly to the ceiling where finely polished gemstones hanging in the eaves and vaults of the roof sparkle brilliantly in the light of the two trees. Between the windows hang intricately woven tapestries displaying the symbols of all the different Craft Guilds gently billowing as a breeze passes through the great doors of the hall.

Today the hall is filled with Noldor dressed in their finest clothes and jewels, and so many elves that they had to remove the benches that lined the halls to make more space. Garlands of flowers and vines stretch across the hall- no, not flowers! Finely crafted stones, ores and gems, shaped and arranged so realistically that one who was not accustomed to the Noldor would not even see the difference between these and the most beautiful of Yavanna’s blooms. If the light of the trees were any brighter the scene would be near blinding with the light reflecting off all the gems, metalwork, and polished stone. 

There were also minstrels scattered through the hall, playing soft, joyful melodies and harmonies, for today a new Princess of the Noldor was taking her place in the court.

As the Royal family enters, a hush falls over the hall, so that the very steps of even baby Finarfin, your young brother, can be heard by the elves' ears.

Finwë leads your family in with Indis and baby Finarfin between them, as they pass the people bow, then Fëanor, Nerdanel his wife, pregnant again already! You marvel for a brief moment, and their son Maedhros. Next Fingolfin, your brother, and his betrothed Anarie. 

Then it’s your turn. After you pass, the elves rise from their bow, and when you reach the dias and turn, about to take your seat, they erupt into thunderous applause and cheering.

It took several minutes for the crowd to quiet again so Finwë could properly introduce your joining the court. Such was their excitement to have a new Princess in court, as your sister Findis discovered that court was not for her and had begun contemplating becoming a devotee of Varda. The rest of the court session passed in a blur, so luckily there were not any matters that required your attention.

Unlike Findis, Fingolfin, your brother, had taken to court and politics like a… well like how only a prince of the Noldor could. 

Fëanor too had taken to courtly matters quickly as well, though his true passions were lore and smithing. Even though he was your half-brother, and your eldest sibling, you did not know much more about him then any other elf, as his disdain for Indis, your mother, and Fingolfin, your brother, usually resulted in him visiting seldom, and on the few occasions he did, he was rather haughty, although never to the point of being straight out rude. He seemed rather tolerable on easier topics though, the few times you had the chance to speak.

Perhaps it was seeing how confident Fëanor and Fingolfin were and how sure in themselves and their beliefs they were was what made you hold your head higher, and even began to allow a seed of courage to begin to take root. 

---

Perhaps you should’ve expected someone would ask you about it. It had been controversial from the start, and the memory of elves was long, so it may always be so. But when they asked you if you thought it was fair to Míriel, who was barred from ever being re-embodied when your parents married, it still shook you. For you to say it was unfair would be to say that you wish yourself, your sister, and brothers would never, should never have been born, and your parents never married. 

To say that it was not unfair to Míriel who was to be left dead permanently was to appear callus, saying that she made her choice and should never be returned to life.

Your half brother, Fëanor, the son of Míriel, would never miss the opportunity to argue for justice for his mother. But none could blame him, for he alone in all elves born in Valinor knew the pain of the death of a parent, in the undying lands. And furthermore the strange feeling of the loss of one who will never return. 

Your brother Fingolfin usually took a more delicate approach, recognizing that Míriel did make a choice for herself, so Finwë had the right to do the same for himself.

All this passed through your mind in a flash, and you voiced your support for:

Fëanor’s position that it was unjust to Míriel, and Fëanor himself for he lost his mother permanently. Go to Fëanor’s Position

Fingolfin’s position that Míriel made her choice, sad that it was, and Finwë had the right to seek happiness when Míriel chose to leave, as Manwe, King of All Arda, declared Finwë’s right to remarry. Go to Fingolfin’s Position.

Allowing everyone, including Finwë and Míriel, privacy in difficult decisions such as these and that the discussion of such personal matters should not be a matter of public debate, despite the fact that it was about their King. Go to Privacy for Eru’s Sake!

"Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror"

A film that contributed to the creation of today's horror films, a film that changed cinematography, a film that will never be forgotten and that will always be mentioned in the best horror films. This is "Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror".

"Nosferatu" is a cult production of the 1920s and today, everyone has probably heard it at least once. as I have already mentioned, the film changed the face of cinema forever, introduced changes and controversies.

Florence Stoker, Bram Stoker's widow, brought a lawsuit against Murnau for illegal use of her husband's novel. She won the lawsuit, and Murnau had to pay damages and destroy all copies of the film. However, the film survived because several copies have survived, according to various versions, from illegal sources or from other countries where the film was shown. I was shocked when I found out about it, it's quite shocking.

Even though "Nosferatu" is based on a book by Bram Stoker, it differs from the plot of the book, this was due to the fact that they did not have the rights to the book. One of the main determinants is the fact that the characters have different names. the ending is also different - the vampire is annihilated, however, in a different way than in Stoker's book, Ellen offers herself as a sacrifice.

In 1979, the most famous remake of the film, Nosferatu the Vampire, was made by Werner Herzog. Since Symphony of Horrors, Stoker's novel had become public domain, so Herzog borrowed characters from it.

let's get back to the movie. was shot mainly in Germany (as befits a German production), exactly on the Baltic Sea, in Slovakia (Dolny Kubin, Oravsky Podzamok, Vratna Valley), in Sweden (Uppsala University) and in Germany (Heligoland, Lauenburg, Rostock, Wismar, Westfalia ).

Starring: Max Schreck as Count Orlok, after the release of the film he was associated with evil and there were even suspicions that he was a real vampire, Greta Schröder is mainly associated with the role of Ellen Hutter and Gustav von Wangenheim played the role of Thomas Hutter, he is also known for his role in the film "Woman on the Moon" and is associated with communist activities. Most of the actors are associated mainly with this film.

What's also interesting is that Nosfertu has to be poured during the day, otherwise it would die.

Despite the opinions of critics who say that the film is not scary and is an experiment, it is worthy of attention and admiration. At that time, promoting such behavior was quite brave, the fact that Max Schreck agreed to such a risk, after all, after watching the film, it was literally believed that he played so well a vampire because he was one.

The film is a great classic without which horror cinema would not be what it is today, it is worth paying attention to it, much less buying or downloading it on DVD.

Of course, I forgot the most important thing, i.e. mistakes. Strony w antycznej książce o wampirach, opatrzone są nowoczesnymi znakami wodnymi, It's such a small mistake but it changes so much. As Hutter goes to sleep in his room at the inn, in the distance, in the left corner, the hand of a crew member can be seen waving a piece of cloth at the camera. The bite mark on the dead captain's neck does not match Orlock's vampire teeth, his fangs are not that far apart, such distinctive teeth and such a mistake?

the film also contributed to culture. Fragments of the film were used in Queen's music video "Under Pressure" (I'll try to post it on my blog someday). The Metallica guitarist wears a T-shirt with the title of the movie in the 'Nothing Else Matters' music video.

I guess it's time for a summary.

Thomas Hutter (Gustav von Wangenheim) breaks up with his beloved wife Ellen (Greta Schroeder) and goes to Count Orlok (Max Schreck) in order to sign a contract with him for the sale of a house in his hometown of Wisborg. Along the way, people warn him about the count, but the young boy does not believe in stories about the vampire. Hutter reaches the castle, where the bloodthirsty Nosferatu is waiting for him. Thomas is saved from the final attack of the vampire count by Ellen, but she does not realize that she is attracting his attention. Nosferatu sets off by ship to Wisborg.

The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived

I've not been in the business of paternity testing TTPD because it's led to a much richer experience without it. I've been particularly moved/saddened by religious trauma as theme throughout. To me, if there's a relationship at the center of TTPD it's her most enduring, and traumatic, one with fame. Also, I just don't think any of these songs are inspired by a single "muse." Or really any of her adult work. Maybe some songs of hers are one thing on the surface and many other things underneath... maybe all of them can be true. Maybe none of them are. Her mind is just that good.

I say this because I was really struck by a line in "The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived": But you are what you did. Which finally reminded me of the song "Innocent"... which was (allegedly?) written about K****.

Opposite sentiments, sure. But it made me wonder what that experience of rerecording it for Speak Now must have been like. That song certainly doesn't ring true for her anymore, but she rerecorded it faithfully. And then... I replayed TSMWEL and that (truly top tier) bridge hit a little different:

Were you sent by someone who wanted me dead? Did you sleep with a gun underneath our bed Were you were writing a book? Were you a sleeper cell spy? In 50 years will this all be declassified? You'll confess what you did And I'll say good riddance ‘Cause it wasn't sexy once it wasn’t forbidden I would've died for your sins Instead, I just died inside And you deserve prison, but you won’t get time You'll slide into inboxes and slip through the bars You crashed my party and your rental car You said normal girls were boring But you were gone by the morning You kicked out the stage lights but you're still performing And in plain sight, you hid But you are what you did And I'll forget you but I'll never forgive The smallest man who ever lived

She's used the "crash my party" idea in "This is Why We Can't Have Nice Things," and could refer to the VMAs moment or the Bleachella era for ex. And the first thing that really made the alarms go off was the crash of the rental car mention. K**** talks about his near fatal car crash (resulting in having his jaw wired shut/facial damage) of his rental Lexus in his music and documentary.

As for the fateful recording leak, even Tree Paine clapped back about it once the full clip came out saying what they did was illegal. But that's certainly not the only problematic thing that's come out about him in recent years.

Slip through the bars could be working double/triple time - slipping through bars of prison, his own lyrics/performing, her own songs about him.

I remember that interview of young Taylor in Miss Americana being asked if she was a K**** fan after that famous interruption and she replies something like, "Yeah, I mean it's K****." That artist who would one day become Y**zus. But I imagine that devastating line about dying for your sins carries far deeper weight than just this simple reading. And I fully think this song is inspired by more than one bad man/system and the same lines apply to any matter of sin.

The "kicked out the stage lights, but you're still performing" feels pretty self explanatory with what he's up to these days (not performing massive world tours). But I do think the "In plain sight, you hid" is pretty powerful because obviously the phone call moment was shared by him/his wife and presented as the full truth (it wasn't). And they rode that controversy for all they could get out of it.

The sexy/forbidden line is hard for me to even express in a way that feels ok to talk about in a wildly speculative way (which is what I'm doing). But there's the surface level/romantic lead of "oh we couldn't be together and once we could be you weren't interested anymore." But if we read it, knowing how K**** (grossly) capitalized on this moment, as a call out about the consent of that entire situation I read it as far more bone chilling.

Anyway, in the days after TTPD release and Taylor herself sharing articles that focus on how we should not be classifying each song as being about [insert name here] lover and an album that seems to constantly tell us "you don't know me, but if you looked closer you might find something bigger," it would be fairly genius to cloak a song about an abusive industry as a truly spectacular break up song. And for us, it can be that if we want.

One last thought... while this was an interesting puzzle to connect, and get off my chest, it's true that it really doesn't matter. I don't think there's a way to know the documentary-level truth about any of this music (unless you're her). She knows her own mythology looms too tall and I wonder what else I'll learn (more universally) while practicing forgetting as I replay and replay and replay.

[teatimeatwinterpalace]

What do you think of queen Mary and king George's relationship? I heard that he was only devoted to her and never took a mistress. Unlike his father...

two awkward and introvert souls ♡ i always loved these two letters from them:

Mary once wrote: ‘I am only looking forward to the time when you and I shall be alone at Sandringham…I am very sorry that I am still so shy with you, I tried not to be so the other day, but alas failed, I was angry with myself! It is so stupid to be so stiff together and really there is nothing I would not tell you, except that I love you more than anybody in the world, and this I cannot tell you myself, so I write it to relieve my feelings.’

George replied: 'Thank God we both understand each other, and I think it really unnecessary for me to tell you how deep my love for you my darling is and I feel it growing stronger and stronger every time I see you; although I may appear shy and cold.’

& that's bloody lovely. 

Regarding Bertie, I’m going to say something that may sound controversial but... it was also an arranged marriage for him.

We all have this idea of love as, deep loyalty, unending commitment, faithfulness. But life is messy and relationships are hard to nourish and maintain. Furthermore, regarding royal marriages, these values were not put at the forefront, there were other considerations to take into account (politics, religions, status and so on). Some royal couples married after falling in love: it lasted forever for a few, for some just a few years and for others - in the best scenario - they succeeded in establishing a sort of respectful partnership. George and Mary, despite a rocky start *when you are engaged to his eldest brother first* seem to fall in the first category.

Bertie and Alexandra were not a love match from the get go, even though Victoria pushed this narrative. Bertie was around nineteen when his parents began to put massive pressure on him to not let pass the "beautiful opportunity" aka Alexandra. They met twice before their wedding. Twice. Let's not forget Vicky's lamentation over Bertie's lack of enthusiasm after meeting Alexandra for the first time: ‘that sweet lovely flower - young and beautiful - that even makes my heart beat when I look at her - which would make most men fire and flames - not even producing an impression enough to last from Baden to England' lmao

At the time, Bertie was already involved in London's high-society circles where debauchery and adultery was common. + I'm going to play armchair psychologist but he was in complete opposition to his father with whom he had a complex relationship with. He rejected Albert and Victoria's family model.

Albert's premature death must have weighed into the balance and Bertie finally agreed to marry Alexandra, he was twenty one and she was nineteen years old. Would you uphold your wedding vows "be your loving and faithful wife/husband" to someone you met twice and with whom you know it is going to be forever because divorce is frown upon ? I know I wouldn't, but perhaps it's because I'm French and since we have low morals... I'll always feel sorry for Alexandra for having to put up with all Bertie's indiscretions, she deserved better. SHE should have been allowed to pursue her own pleasures.

Yet, they managed to create a harmonious marriage and they both made it work. There is no doubt that Bertie came to love her, but in his own way! :)

[mermaidsirennikita]

so i finally read devil in winter, thank you so much for that btw, i had a GREAT time, finished it in one afternoon, bless you truly <3 now i understand evie and sebastian appear in other novels? could you tell me which ones to read bc i swear i loved those two and also any other novels i might like if i enjoyed that one? THANK YOU

Yessss I’m so glad enjoyed it!!!! I saved this as a draft and I'm not sure if you're going to see this if I don't make it public (I'm sorry!) so posting now. If you haven’t read the other Wallflowers books, Evie is in all the other ones as a supporting character. Sebastian is the villain of book 2, obvi, lol. He also cameos in book 4 where he’s kinda on thin ice with everyone but Evie is preggers so they’re stuck with him.

They have their own cute scenes in A Wallflower Christmas, where they have pregnant Christmas sex.

Otherwise, I think Sebastian cameos in Mine Till Midnight…. Then in the Ravenels he and Evie show up a lot because three of the books are about the offspring.

Devil in Spring—their son Gabriel is the hero, it’s real cute; the prologue is them role playing while Sebastian tries to break it to Evie that their oldest son totally compromised a girl lol

Devil’s Daughter—their eldest, Phoebe, is the heroine; it’s very popular and she’s a widowed single mom who falls for a former scoundrel, but tbh this one does nothing for me

Devil in Disguise—very controversial but super connected to their family, especially Sebastian. Not sure if you've been spoiled there, so I won't say more :)

For book that might hit similar places, I'd recommend...

When the Duke Was Wicked by Lorraine Heath. An all time favorite of mine, and I think it has a great rake hero (also, the heroine is a sweet redhead!) The basic setup of the book is that the hero and heroine were raised as family friends, their parents were tight, but he's nine years older. He had no idea, but she had this intense girlish infatuation with him and was crushed when he married young... and he was super devoted as a husband, but then his wife and young daughter died and he radically changed and became this super slutty rake. The impetus of the novel is that the heroine, Grace, asks the hero, Lovingdon, to help her find a good husband and he ends up corrupting her--which is maybe what she wanted, lol. He's so slutty, but he also adore Grace and can't fucking accept it because he's having such a hard time with accepting that he could love someone else... maybe even more than he loved his wife.

TW: past medical crises are discussed at length; lmk if you need more info.

You could also check out Surrender to the Devil by Lorraine Heath--another bad boy duke aristo hero and a lovely redheaded heroine, lol. This one is about the parents of the heroine of the book I just recommended. She grew up on the streets and is just this really sweet woman, he's this rakish caustic duke (who has a lot of inner pain, naturally). He decides to make her his mistress, but ends up falling head over heels.

TW: heroine was sexually assaulted as a child and is very traumatized; the hero is really gentle with her once he realizes she has sexual hangups. There's also a lot of discussion of the abuse of a side female character.

Any Duchess Will Do by Tessa Dare. This is another "we saw this hero be a slutty douche in a previous book, now he's back and falling in love". Tessa's books are funny and sexy but also emotional. The duke in this book was introduced in "A Week to be Wicked" (also a great book) as a tool, and he won't settle down, so his mom is like please choose a bride... and he's like you know what I'll choose this fucking barmaid. His mom takes him up on it and decides to My Fair Lady the barmaid, who he has no actual intention of marrying... until he falls for her lol.

How to Steal A Scoundrel's Heart by Vivienne Lorret. This one works really well, imo. The hero is a marquess who propositions the heroine to be his mistress, and at first she turns him down... but then she gives because she has nowhere else to turn. He's super cool with his love affairs, and gives her this contract that last four months, no more and no less. It's this super romantic, lovely romance and I so recommend it.

The Serpent Prince by Elizabeth Hoyt. A great "flashy rake x shy virgin" book. The heroine finds the hero left for dead on the side of the road, and she nurses him back to health.... And whoops, the rake falls hard! It's also fully insane, because Hoyt.

The Devil of Downtown by Joanna Shupe. A Gilded Age villainous rake/sweet virgin book. The hero is a rake and a gangster, and he ends up falling for the do gooder activist daughter of an influential man in town--and it's kind of a "who's corrupting who" thing.

🧠 for Bond and also 🙋‍♀️ please!

::waves:: hi! Thanks for the ask!

🧠 Pick a character, and I'll tell you my favorite headcanon for them.

So, this may be a controversial head canon, but would love to hear contrasting or supporting views, either way, because I think it's fun to think about: one of my headcanons for Bond is that he doesn't really know how to enjoy things. I think the closest we come to seeing him have actual fun is in the bar scene in QoS (I think) where he's shooting the shit with Felix, right before he gets shot at for real; and the second closest is maybe when he's driving a fast car and appreciating its features. But we so rarely, if ever, see Bond experiencing genuine joy, or fun, or laughing, and it makes me feel like maybe he's forgotten what those things feel like. It's one of the reasons I'm a little bit obsessed with the idea of retired!Bond, and with giving him hobbies, which I've written a little bit about before. I'm exploring this as well in one of my WIPs, where Bond is dealing with trauma in part just by trying to find things he actually likes to do to fill his time, but I do think that when people (fictional or otherwise) spend most of their time in survival mode, so much of what otherwise gives life meaning and joy can get shunted aside as frivolous or trivial. And when I write Bond, I want to try to give some of that lightheartedness back to him, if that makes sense.

🙋‍♀️ Do any irl people know you write fanfic?

Believe it or not, until very recently, the answer would have been "not a single IRL person in my life knows I write fanfic!" But I did actually, finally, tell my wife this week, in part after talking it through a little bit with @mr-iskender. It's hard to explain exactly why I hesitated to tell anyone in the first place. It's not shame-based at all--I think writing fanfic is wonderful and fun and amazing and will defend it on a hill to whomever needs to hear it. But it felt like the one thing in my life that was *just* mine, and I felt (feel) protective of it. I've always been introverted, and as a kid and young adult, my books and my journals and the things that I wrote enabled me to thrive and understand myself in ways that nothing else did, and helped me to recharge my batteries after being in the larger world. And I think the need to have a refuge to do that still exists, even as an adult. Without completely doxxing myself, I'll just say generally that I'm a human rights lawyer, and much of my day is spent constantly responding to atrocities and world events and that takes...a lot of my energy and, honestly, my heart, and all of that is outward-facing. I'm also married, and my wife and I have a small child, and my rule has always been that I try to give my family the best of me, no matter what. This is a conscious choice that I'm happy with, but it basically means that every ounce of my outward-facing energy is...kind of occupied? And writing (especially, lately, fanfic) has been my way of having my own little world again, something that brings me joy but doesn't really ask anything of me that I'm not able or prepared to give.

Sorry, this is getting *massively* long and I'm probably oversharing, but I will just add that, at the end of the day, I am glad I told my wife, just because her reaction was perfect. She told me that she loves my rich inner world, and that she loves that it belongs to me, and that I can share anything I want to at any time, but she also supports me having something that's mine alone. Having that conversation was lovely and I'm glad I did it, so thanks, Alex, for the boost! Sometimes it can feel really good to be seen.

"Jaken, look after Rin."

If I don't know where/whom this sentence comes from, I'll think this is a sentence asking someone to take care of their CHILD, not a wife.

That's the whole problem with Sumisawa's pedoship. He didn't let Rin grow up. She's still a young teen who hero-worships Pedomaru and blindly obeys his every order, he's still the decision-maker for himself AND her. NOTHING has changed between them. Fanon SessRin has always been a controversial, groomy pedo ship, but steps could have been taken by Sunrise to make it merely a squicky, somewhat creepy pairing instead of the most disgusting, abusive and pedophilic couple in modern shonen. But nope, Sumisawa had to have his lolicon cake to stuff his face with. ☠️
