#i'm not sure if you're all the same person or not

[chasm-side]

No. Everyone is capable of having bad takes, including me - and especially in a fandom like DC comics wherein canon is copious and contradictory, and there may be valid takes that are mutually incompatible.

And, more generally, I'm also in my late 30s with recently-diagnosed ADHD. I try to be understanding about the fact that ADHDers can have issues with Impulsively Saying The Wrong Thing That They're Ashamed Of Later Once The Vyvanse Kicks In, and that problem is even worse online where attention is split and tone is difficult to convey. I'm sure I'm guilty of being an accidental asshole, despite my best efforts to the contrary. And I'm old enough that I've witnessed people change their views and behaviours over the long term, and I don't feel the need to block someone who's moderately annoying now because they (like me) are capable of growing as a person.

HOWEVER, I don't blame other folks on tumblr for using the block function for whatever reason they like. Blocking someone on tumblr is not the same as bullying them, unless you're in a very small and closed community or you're being an asshole about it in additional ways. If blocking is how you want to curate your space on this Fun Bullshit Hellsite, then by all means. I'm sometimes willing to have a fight in the notes of my posts (and other people's posts), but just cause I'm Like That doesn't mean that anyone else has to be.

HOWEVER HOWEVER, I have thought about blocking accounts that are primarily posting "x reader" or "y/n" content. Not because I'm being judgmental, but because they often don't use consistent tags I can filter out - and thus they take over my dash. X reader and y/n fic folks, no offense, but please find one or two tags you can use? Literally "x reader" or "character x reader" or "y/n fic" or something that isn't character-specific. I don't like blocking you! I'll curate my feed if I have to, but I don't want to completely shut you out for such a minor thing. Help me help you, y'know?

Do you block people in the same fandom as you just because you don't like their takes?

[arc-misadventures]

This Is How You Do It~!

Pyrrha: Well... welcome everyone to the fifth meeting of the, HLJA: Horny Ladies for, Jaune Arc. I am the club president, Pyrrha Nikos. We like to welcome out latest member, Nora Valkyrie. Please introduce yourself, and tell us while you're horny for, Jaune Arc.

Nora: Hello everyone my name is, Nora!

RWBYVCMCE: HI, Nora.

Nora: I'm horny for, Jaune-Jaune because he's a kind brotherly figure I've always wanted in my life. He takes care of me, doesn't talk down to me, he's supportive of me. And... And, unlike a different person... Jaune actually likes me...

Ciel: Is she talking about that, Ren guy?

Coco: Yep.

Cecil: What's wrong with, Ren, he seems like a nice guy.

Velvet: I think it has something to do with, Ren's semblance.

Ciel: Ren's semblance; what's his semblance?

Velvet: Ren's semblance calms the senses to the point a person becomes undetectable to, Grimm standing just a few feet from you. Considering the effect that, Ren's semblance has on a person, I theorize that as passive effect from his semblance, Ren himself is so calm, that he's unable to... unable to get it on.

Weiss: Hmm... Semblances do occasionally have passive effects on people some times. It's a pretty solid theory.

Nora: A solid theory that is true; Because of, Ren's semblance he can't get aroused.

Yang: Whoa, seriously?!

Pyrrha: Is that true, Nora?

Nora: I've spiked his food with aphrodisiacs... more so just to see what would happen if I did. No effect.

Blake: So, are you giving up on, Ren, because you two can't get physically intimate?

Nora: Not entirely...

May: Does his semblances prevent you two from being physically, and emotionally intimate?

Nora: Yeah. I know I've held a torch for, Ren for years, but we can't do anything because of his semblance. But with, Jaune... he's shown me love, and affection the moment we first met. Sure he treated himself like the older brother figure, he has seven sisters so it makes sense why he would act like that...

Ruby: I love his brother attitude he has for us~!

May: It's a really comforting feeling.

Nora: But, despite this brother love he shows me, I know there's more romantic feelings in there as well. Haaa... I love that blond goofball~!

RWBYPCVCME: Awwww~!

Pyrrha: Alright! Now that introductions are out of the way! Tell us about your all of your plans to seduce, Jaune went? Ruby, will you go first?

Ruby: Okay! Soi, I finally tried.... The naked cloak!

Ciel: The naked cloak?

Ruby: I had, Jaune enter my room, only the two of us were there, while I was only wearing my red cloak! My plan was to seduce him after he accidently reveals my naked body before him in all it''s glory!

Velvet: Ohh~!

Coco: Spicy, I like it!

Blake: Did it work?

Ruby: It failed horribly!

Ruby: ...

Ruby: I... I was too nervous to show him anything...

Yang: Ha! I knew it that you'd chicken out!

Ruby: Oh like you were any better! You wore a skimpy bikini knowing full well it would slip, and you'd flash him, on purpose! And, what did you do when your top fell off: "Eeek! No don't look!" Then you punched him in the face!

Yang: Yeah... Ah ha... haa...

Blake: Too scared to show him the goods?

Yang: No...

Pyrrha: What about you, May, any luck?

May: I haven't been trying to sleep with him. I'm just trying to strengthen our relationship, and subtly flirt with him to get him to know that I'm interested in something more than just a simple friendship.

Cecil: I've been doing the same myself. I've been helping, Jaune with his leadership training classes, while also subtly flashing him my ass in the process~!

Emerald: In those spicy thongs I helped you get?

Ciel: Hell yeah I did~!

Emerald: Nice~!

Ciel: He hasn't taken any action, but I've seen the way he's blushing~!

Emerald: So, he hasn't tapped your ass either?

Cecil: No...

Blake: I think, Jaune's more of a thigh man than an ass, or boobs guy.

May: I would have to agree, while he is aware how big I am, the times times my breasts have accidently slipped out he tends to look away. Although I think that more so him being a gentleman than anything else.

Weiss: I would have to agree. As the one of the members of the, HLJA without any prominent assets. I tend to notice that when the few times I've notice, Jaune staring at one of us, his eyes seem to be staring lower than a persons waist, obviously at a persons thighs. Seldom at a persons, butt, or boobs.

Coco: Who gets stared at the most.

Weiss: He tends to stare at, Yang, and Pyrrha's thighs the most.

Pyrrha: Yes!

Yang: Fuck yeah!

Nora: Wait... I understand this is the horny for, Jaune club. But... Have none of you actually slept with him?

Ruby: Well... no...

Velvet: There is actually two groups of the, HLJA. One for woman like us who want to sleep with him, and another group for those that have.

Nora: Oh, where is that group? I should be in that group.

RWBYPCVCME: ...?

Coco: Y-You've already slept with, Jaune...?

Nora: Yeah, just the other day actually.

Pyrrha: Haa... I'm sorry, Nora, but I'm sorry I'm going to ask you to leave, and join the, SSLJA. That's the club for woman who have slept with, Jaune. We aren't allowed to share how we managed to do it considering this is more of a think tank for us to be able to join the, SSLJA. Since, you've already done it. Well...

Nora: Oh... okay... B-Bye guys...

RWBYPCVCME: Bye...

Yang: Fuck!

Weiss: Why couldn't she have at least told us what she did for an idea for what we could have done?!

Pyrrha: Because, for what works for one...

RWBYCVCME: Does not work with others...

May: At least we can all tell it was good.

Weiss: How can you tell?

May: She was walking with a limp.

Emerald: Tsk! Luck bitch...

~~~

Glynda: Well... Let me welcome our newest member of the SSLJA, Sexually Satisfied Ladies of, Jaune Arc: Nora Valkyrie!

Nora: H-Hi...

Neo: 👋😁

Cinder: Hello, Nora.

Glynda: So tell us, Nora, as part of your introduction to the, SSLJA. How did you do it?

Nora: Oh well... it was just after I was rejected from, Ren for the last time...

~~~

Nora: Haa... Fuck... Okay, that's it... if dressing like this doesn't get him, than nothing will... Fuuuuuuuuuuck...

Jaune: So you finally giving up on, Ren, Nora?

Nora: Yeah... I don't blame him... I know how his semblance effects him. But, I just thought that I would be able to find that chink in his armour that could make us a real couple. But, I can't beat the side effects of his damn semblance.

Jaune: I'm sorry, Nora. I know, Ren has told me that he does love you, but probably because of his semblance he'll never be able to love you. Love you in a way that you deserve.

Nora: I know...

Jaune: I know this may not be a good time... But, since you've given up on, Ren does... does that mean you're available...?

Nora: Well... It depends...

Jaune: Depends on what?

Nora: On who's asking I guess?

Jaune: Well... I am... I'm asking.

Nora: Y-You are...?

Jaune: I've always like you... liked-liked you... and, I know I'm stuck in a rather... odd relationship... relationships... but, if you're interested...Would you like go on a date with me?

Nora: ...

Nora: If we date...d-does that mean me, and your... big friend down there can... exchange pleasantries?

Jaune: Nora... if you keep dressing like that.

Jaune: We'll be doing a whole lot more than just exchange pleasantries~!

Nora: Shall we exchange pleasantries now then?

Jaune: ...

Nora: Whoa-hohoho~! Jaune~?!

Jaune: Okay... Since I have you now in my arms... My bed, or yours?

Nora: My bed, if we break it we'll move on to yours.

Jaune: Sounds like a plan~!

~~~

Nora: And, then we booped...

Glynda: Oh so that's why those request forms to replace all the beds in team JNPR came from.

Nora: Hehe... sorry...

Glynda: Don't be~! We've don far far worse ourselves.

Nora: Y-You have...?

Cinder: Yes.

Neo: 🥰

Glynda: Would you like to know more~?

Nora: ...

Nora: Yes.

︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶

Note: ‘‘Ovulating every other fucking day...RELEASE ME,,

・・・・・​​⟢

Fandom: Hoyoverse’s Genshin Impact

Pairing: (Fem.)Reader x Malipo Kinich

Content Warnings: (NSFW) Headcanons, Praise, Slight Teasing

✦・・・・・​​・・・・・​​・・・・・​​・・・・・​​✦

Kinich in bed? Yeah, okay, I'd die happy. Kinich is extremely level-headed, always calm if not borderline disinterested. He isn't usually one for sugarcoating his attitude or sweet talking but you can bet your ass that nonchalant attitude 180s once you hit the sheets.

Personally headcannon him as a switch, leaning top, and heck, even if you're the one topping, are you actually the one in control? He'd so be the type to lean back, either with his back to the headboard or fully lying down, and watch you do your thing with unfiltered amusement in his eyes. He'd be a tease, not in the sense that he'd edge your release, but rather, he'd help it build faster than you can help it. "You doing okay up there?" he'd speak up with a barely hidden huff of laughter. "Need my help? Sure looks like you're doing just fine on your own.".

He'd keep eye contact with you, and if you blinked for a second too long, he'd be on you in an instant. "What? Is it too much?" he'd sit up, his chest against yours, quickly rising and falling, "Keep your eyes on me, cmon". If you started to get fidgety and visibly close, he'd grab your hips and help your movements meet his, "Mmm feel that?" you'd squeeze around him and he'd choke out a, "Oh I know you do..". He's the type to smile, smirk, grin, so proudly, so smugly as he sees bliss wash over you, and keep his grip firm on your hips or thighs, making sure you stay right there, so you could feel him twitch inside you when he hears you moan as you release. Want you to be fully made aware of how you make him feel.

If he found out you were into praise, oh, how he'd never let you hear the end of it. You're already struggling to breathe, and he'd just smugly let it slip past his lips; "Yeah? You're doing so fucking well.". He'd layer it on thick, making you constantly stumble over your own breaths and always finding a new way to let his words really get to you, really get you there. "Is this what you needed pretty girl?" he hums hovering above you, his small grunts near your ear as he gets closer, "Because fuck this is what I've been thinking of all day," he relishes in the small trembls traveling your spine, "daydreaming of how good you'd feel, how you'd look so good for me, and be so good for me".

He'd know. You're ovulating? He knows. You're just in the mood? He knows. Stressed? Yup. Pent-up? Uh huh. Needy? He's already smiling at you knowingly. "Don't be shy," he'd look at you intently, "I'm not going to judge you, especially not for wanting this.". I don't think he's the type to make you admit your desires outright or make you beg for it, I think if anything, he enjoys the act of being proven right enough. He'll go along with your actions if you're too shy to voice your needs, and instead will just make little adjustments to fit what you fantasized about this time. "There." He'd manhandle you into a different pose, shift himself behind you, voice near your neck, like you'd secretly wanted him to, "This better?".

Would be completely normal about taking care of himself in front of you, or casually when you're together, or sharing the same space. That's one of the benefits to his usual lack of care; if he got hot and bothered, he'd palm himself without a second thought. You just came home from your outing, and you make your way to the bedroom? Yeah, he's on your bed, hand down his baggy pants and panting, moaning every now and then, loudly. He knows you're there, he just doesn't give a shit. In fact, he'd force himself to go faster, to tease more, and just overall make his voice needier, and whinier, and if he's feeling like you need to hear it, he'll let even a whimper slip. He's well aware you get off on his pleasure as well, and would immediately beckon you over to finger you deep if you felt your core heat up watching him. He's running the fingers along your walls, thumb rubbing onto your most sensitive part as he'd speak quietly, "You liked it? I'm glad" he's chuckling, "I'll do it more often then" and the fingers are slipping in and out so easily and they feel so fucking good but all he says is "There we go," with a smitten smile.

[thebluediner]

IT IS YOU BABE , IT'S ALWAYS YOU

billie watched from above as the light focused on you in the arena. you were sat on the stage floor with you white dress enveloping you. there was an angelic glow to you. in technicality the way the bright light landed on your glittery white dress was the cause but billie liked to believe it was the pure description of your soul.

you hands gripped at the microphone as if your hands were shaking and the only way to stabilise them were to have a grip on the microphone. the microphone eventually made it way closer to your lips. there was a silence that stretched before a sigh was heard from you and fans erupted in screams.

a lovable giggle left your lips looking up at the crowd and billie found her self also smilling. you two have been in a relationship for a couple months now . you weren't hidding from people but at the same time you weren't trying to shove your relationship in people's faces.

"the next song is... not my favourite to perform" you voice speaks out over the arena making fans coo at you and one loudly screaming I love you. billie who heard it muttered something about loving you way more making zoe who was sitting next to her giggle.

"but it's real I guess. I believe we all have been in relationships that eventually reveal how that person isn't for you or maybe you aren't for them you know" you speak into the microphone your hands fiddling with your dress.

billie knew how this made you feel afterall she's seen you breakdown because of it.

when you're relationship was still new there was a point when you doubted everything and spiralled. she can still remember that day and how your voice was so loud yet so broken trying to push her away because it felt to real for you then. you had practically yelled that she would soon leave you because you're not the one she wanted but billie fought back. she voiced her heart too. she told you how scared she was too but she was willing to take the risk just for you. she yelled multiple times how she wanted you she needed only you .

so when she felt her eyes fill up with tears she wiped them off quickly sniffing them away. her eyes looked back to your figure on stage.

"but that's okay right so that's why I wrote this song" your head nods with a weak smile before the instruments and background sounds starts playing.

Go away from my window

Leave at your own chosen speed

I'm not the one you want, babe

I'm not the one you need

You say you're lookin' for someone

Who's never weak but always strong

To protect you and defend you

Whether you are right or wrong

Someone to open each and every door

But it ain't me, babe

No, no, no, it ain't me, babe

It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe

eventually the song stopped the concert ran it's course and you were backstage freshening up after the concert and getting ready to go home. by the door, billie waited for you since you were going home together.

as soon as your eyes met her's a big smile causing your eyes to wrinkle made it's way to your face. you threw yourself on her hugging her tightly while kissing her cheek. some words of excitement were exchanged like how you didn't know she was here but nevertheless you were so happy she was.

billie watched how happy you were to see her and how that sent a flutter to her heart. her hands moved from your waist to cup your face giving you a small kiss before her blue eyes locked with yours.

"you're all I ever wanted you know that " her words gentle and loving. you grow shy grinning ear to ear before nodding your head.

"it's you, it'll always be you for me" is all billie says before kissing you again.

your heart skips a beat at her confession. she was always to sure about you and how much you meant to her. it was new and fucking scary but you believed her. you believed in the love you both shared.

"it's you for me too billie" you tell her right after she breaks the kiss. you didn't believe he clear blue eyes could be any more lighter but they were right after you told her that.

"fuck I'm so inlove with you " billie's says her voice in defeat before taking your hand and kissing it.

[onlyalittleperverse]

Ah, yes. The illegally used campaign funds, no corruption there is there?

Oh...wait, hold on....yep

Hillary did the same thing, oh but it was worse? Because she illegally funded an attack campaign on a political opponent, which is in and of itself, VERY FUCKING ILLEGAL, AND she did it WITH.....wait for it....campaign funds. (Also illegal) so, she illegally used campaign funds to fund an illegal attack campaign on her political opponent. And go nothing as a repercussion.

so who's worse here? So why wasnt she charged? Why isn't she a felon?

Oh, and the whole laptop email scandal, holy hell let's not talk about the favoritism the justice department played there, wow. What's shit show that was.

Oh. Well then. who's got their fingers in their ears now?

OK, so let's talk about the one and only location trump had classified documents.

One location....

What? Biden had some too?

How many?

12 piles, in 12 locations?

For how long though?

Dating back to the 70s? Wow.

OK, but I'm sure he just "accidentally" mishandled them...

Oh, he was on a committee specifically dealing with the mishandling of classified documents by governor employees....oh...

Was he charged?....huh.....

Oh but trump misvalued mar a la go. 🙄

Did he though, he made an arbitrary valuation, for a personal loan, to a bank who never complained, and was more than happy to take the property on Colateral, and the loan was paid back in ample time and they made plenty of interest profit...no one was harmed, no one complained.

Also they base this on the asessors nonsense assessment of 27 million, while most people say mar a la go is worth at least 100 million, it's a golf resort surrounded by water, has tons of waterfront, on that alone many people believe it's worth around 500 million, right where trump valued it.

Of course that's not corrupt, just because that has NEVER happened, IN THE HISTORY OF THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT, where a person was charged for an arbitrary valuation for a personal loan, and the supposed victim was never harmed, and never complained....

Again, who's corrupt here? Pretty sure we all know who's corrupt. 🤔 the democrats literally pull stuff out of their ass, and then say "he's a felon" uh, no. You're corrupt, you're a tyrant, you're obviously attacking political opponents, and you call him the fascist? haha, rich.

Sounds like the most obvious of projections.

Fly Away - Mark Grayson x Reader

Songfic- Fly Away by Ley Soul

—————————————————

guys it took me the whole day making this please like it

3k+ words

takes place in season two and mark and amber dont get back together

(GO LISTEN TO LEY SOUL 👹👹)

anyways fic under the cut

Fly away, on Saturday

Fighting to decay

Who am I to find out?

After Amber dumped Mark, obviously he would feel like the worst person ever. Alongside what happened with his dad, he'd rather just do whatever to get his mind off of it all.

Hearing alarms, another opportunity presents itself to him. Sighing, he takes off to the downtown city.

On his arrival, it seems like some other hero has already beaten him there. He gets ready to fly away again before hearing a child scream for help.

He might as well since he's here.

He zooms down, landing in front of the enemies, causing a shockwave to hit the ground as they're thrown back.

Turning around, he finds the same little girl who is affiliated with Titan. His daughter, Fiona. But, what's his daughter doing out here? She screams.

"Look out!"

One of the men has a rocket launcher. Where the hell did he get that?!

Moving to brace himself and Fiona for the coming impact, a wall of stone rises once the rocket is launched. The wall explodes on impact, only turning to dust. No debris for whatever reason. Holding Fiona, he looks to see who that is.

Another girl, looking around his age, jumps out of a now-demolished building. Who is that?

Grunting as you rise from the rubble, you use the leftover dust from the wall that was destroyed before and make stone spikes out of them.

"Fi-fi! Cover your eyes!"

Yelling the command to Fiona, she hides her face in the crook of Mark's neck.

You close your fist and make a motion as if you're throwing something. The stone spikes listen to your command and are launched towards your foes. Some are impaled, others jump out of the way.

As you continue to fight the people, Mark sets Fiona a safe distance away before jumping in as well. You both fought side by side, protecting Mark with your stone formations as much as you could whenever someone would move to harm him. You probably weren't aware that he couldn't be hurt by their weapons but he still appreciated the thought.

Throughout the fight and even after the fight, he couldn't stop watching you. You were at the very least caring seeing as you protected him. You weren't bad-looking. You were pretty. Gorgeous, even.

Who were you?

Fly away

Fly, Fly, Fly away

Fly away

Fly, Fly

After the fight, you ran over to Fiona to make sure she was okay. If your dad found out you were attacked, he'd kill whoever it was and whatever gang they're from. If he also found out you snuck out with your sister, he'd probably kill you.

Fiona squirmed out of your hold and ran over to Mark. Throwing herself at him, he went to catch her. She hugged him tight.

"Thank you, thank you Mr. Invincible! Thank you for helping my sis!"

Oh shit. You were also Titan's daughter. He pats her back, setting her back down on the ground. Sheepishly looks back up to you with a small smile.

"Of course! It was no big deal- I'm always here to help!"

You look at him skeptically. How does Fiona know him but you don't? He doesn't look that familiar. You've kept track of the news. As much as you could at least. Your dad was very protective of what you were exposed to. Nevertheless, you hold out your hand for Mark to shake.

"[Name]. Thanks for your help but I was handling it perfectly fine."

Mark's mind blanks as you cross your arms, half-glaring at him. Don't look at him like that. Jeez, he just got out of a relationship! He can't move on this fast, can he?

"R-right... Does- does your dad know you're both out here?"

Watching as you freeze slightly, you sputter to quickly make an excuse for your reasoning out here. It was a stupid reason anyway.

Mark's smile broadens as he realizes that you snuck out. And with your sister as well? He knows Titan well enough that he doesn't allow those he loves out in the world.

"Well, maybe I can fly you both back home?"

Where would you like to go?

Both you and Invincible are better acquainted now. You still don't know what he looks like under that mask. Hell, you sneak out sometimes just to see him. He'll even fly by and bring you things. Or he'd fly by to pick you up and you both fight crime together. Things ranging from little souvenirs from all over the world.

He comes by again, knocking on your given room window. Excitedly opening it, you move to let him inside. He doesn't though.

"Hey, wanna come on a fly with me?"

(The present moment is life)

"C'mon now, and go where? I've been listening to the police scanner and it's been pretty dead tonight."

Mark smiles at your words. He likes how close you both have gotten. It almost makes him want to show you his real identity. But alas, he can't until he's 100% about you. You are a crime lord's daughter after all.

He ended up convincing you to go with him. Flying was never your strong suit though. You always liked being on the ground. Maybe it was something to do with your powers.

He carries you bridal style through the air, enjoying the feeling of you clutching onto him through his suit.

You wouldn't even look down. Or up. Or anywhere that isn't underneath your eyelids. You just didn't feel stable when in the air. You don't even go onto planes or helicopters or even your dad's private jet.

Mark chuckles, his grip tightening on you.

"We're almost there, I promise. Don't open your eyes until I tell you to."

You heat up a bit. You had a small growing crush on Invincible. He's been good to you. Even if you don't know what he looks like. It doesn't matter.

You finally feel the ground under your feet as Mark places you down. Missing the feel of his hands on you, you distract yourself by covering your face with your hands. Feeling Invincible's hand place itself on your forearm, slowly dragging you over to something.

"Okay, open your eyes."

You gasp softly seeing the most beautiful view ever. He brought you to the high point of a mountain out in the wilderness, overlooking the vast expanse of nature. The moon is at the right spot, shining light on you both perfectly. Looking over to where Invincible is standing, you see him lighting up some candles that are near a blanket with food and fruits on it.

Was this a date?

I am not afraid to stare into shadow

You and Invincible have been going on dates here and there and finally made your relationship official. This being said, he revealed his true identity to you.

Mark finally decides it now time for you to have your supersuit, and he brings you to Art.

Now with your new supersuit, you want to go out a test-run it immediately.

(You stand strong in the unknown)

Mark brings you to a battle that even the Guardians were at. You fight alongside them, a great help. You'd create stone formations to protect any bystanders from getting hit. You'd create stone pillars to keep buildings from collapsing onto civilians.

The people loved you! They began to call you Sandstorm. Fits you pretty well, to be honest. You can control sand making them solid or turn to dust.

The Guardians were pleased to meet you. Eve was a bit skeptical, about how you've come out of nowhere. With Mark as well on top of that. But she didn't end up minding it at all.

You were on the news, and on social media, people did love you! They said your costume was cute, your powers were cool, how you saved a lot of lives! You loved the attention! You'd geek out to Mark about how it felt, being in a real villain fight. How free it felt to do something on your own away from home.

Mark also eventually brought you to meet his mom. She was super nice and caring. You saw where Mark got his kindness from. Debbie was praising you on your work in the battle, how she saw you move on the moves.

The night went on and Mark brought you home. Once he left you were met with one last obstacle.

Your father.

From the final look over my back

Long story short. Titan was livid. How could you sneak around under his nose like this? He trusted you to be responsible! To be better than this!

And to make it all worse, you were running around with that goody two-shoes, probably rich boy, Invincible! A boy who's never known struggle as he has. Or you! The things you've had been through before he took down Machine Head!

He's tripled the security around your room. Now being more strict than ever. He doesn't approve of you putting yourself in danger as you have been doing. Especially for these people of the world who probably could care less about you if your life was in danger.

"If I ever catch you sneaking out again or anywhere you're not supposed to be, the next time you'll be on the news it'll be an obituary."

Leaving your room after those words, Titan takes a deep breath. He hates saying that kind of thing to you, but it seems you never listen until he does get threatening. He calls for Isotope.

"Tell the security staff, that if they see even a speck of Invincible floating around here, they tell me immediately. I got some not-nice things to say to that boy."

(The present moment is life)

You did text Mark what happened. He was going to go to you immediately and possibly knock some sense into your father.

You tell Mark not to, that you'll be okay. And that you'll try to talk to your dad instead. Show him that you're helping the world get better by becoming a hero. Maybe give him an ultimatum as well. There's no reason for him to be acting this way anyway. You're an adult! Eighteen for crying out loud! You're not a child so why does he do this?

Undo all, Return

Finally talking to your father and making him see reason, you're allowed out of the house. You've proven to him that you could take care of yourself. (You fought.)

When you guys did fight, Titan did not hold back. Yes, you're his daughter, but since you want to be grown and go into the world-- he was going to show you that no one will pull their punches.

Obviously! You knew that already! But you weren't going to tell him.

You also got him to give Mark a chance. Both of them meet again, (Mark being in costume, of course, he doesn't trust Titan that much.) Mark proves to Titan that he's capable of protecting you. (They fought as well but with Isotope in the mix.)

Now reunited with Mark, you guys go on dates as always. You hang out with the Guardians. You even met Cecil and were offered a place in the GDA. You didn't know about trusting him though.

You were also getting used to flying. Even started to fly yourself using your powers to make dust devils that carry you places. Nothing beats flying with Mark though.

You even joined his college. Finally moved out of your father's control. You got the smarts. You got the money. So why not? Only brings you and Mark closer.

Another, Rebirth

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

Anywhere babe that you wanna go

Hero work is tiring. After much persuasion from Mark, you joined the GDA. And man, Cecil doesn't give a fuck about how tired you are. You are Guardian level strong. Why don't you join the Guardians? Because if Mark isn't, then you won't either. You're a package deal!

Joining Mark on missions, he worries a bit about your safety. Yes, you're strong. Yes, he trusts you. But you're not... invincible... like he is.

(The present moment is life)

The first time you got severely hurt almost scared him to death. Even seeing a bruise blemishing your perfect skin pains him. He loves you too, too much. Who is he to complain though?

You are the, you are the legacy

Why not leave a tall shadow?

"If they need you, Mark, then who am I to keep you from saving lives?"

Mark just came to you in the middle of the night with some kind of anthropomorphic bug. He said the bug's people need his help. Why specifically Mark? You don't know. The bug seems genuine though.

"I don't know... it's a bit... fishy to me."

Sighing, you place a gentle kiss on his lips. Instinctively, he places his hands around your waist, pulling you closer to him.

"It'll be okay. You're Invincible after all! What's the worst they can do?"

Mark smiles at what he assumes to be a pun. He kisses your cheek, holding you tight like he's trying to remember the shape and feel of you before leaving for some planet in space.

"I love you."

"I love you more... Be careful, and come back to me in one piece."

(You stand strong in the unknown)

Two months later, Mark comes back... with a baby?!

"Who's baby is that. That better not be yours, Markus Sebastian Grayson!"

"Woah! Woah! Woah! It's not-! He's not mine!.... How do you know my full name???"

Mark panics not wanting you to get the wrong idea. He came home expecting to see his mom but found you there with her also. He was gonna tell you..... after dropping Oliver off with Debbie of course.

I swam and conquered the waves

“Come on! Cecil’s giving me two nights off every week! Let’s go out and have fun!”

Mark is currently wrapped around you like a koala but beaming like a golden retriever.

“Hmmm… I don’t know~~ I got to study for some tests that are coming up…”

Groaning and rolling his eyes, Mark closes the book you’re reading and lifts you into his arms. You squeal as he raises you into the air and nuzzles your cheek.

He takes you both to the window and opens it. Flying out of your room, you both soar into the sky above the clouds. Your eyes twinkle as they take in the stars and Mark’s eyes twinkle just by watching at you.

Looking back at him, you lean in to rest your forehead on his. Mark closes the gap between you, gently kissing you. You kiss back immediately, wrapping your arms around him.

Mark took you to many places. He brought you to Kenya, Switzerland, Japan, Taiwan, Egypt, Ontario, and many more countries. All in one night too!

Your final stop was Venice. Both of you now sitting at a table. One plate of pasta in the middle of you both. This was about to become a Lady and the Tramp scene.

You talked about school and recent local missions that you’ve done. Truly enjoying your time together, you both lean in for another kiss.

“Mark Grayson. Invincible.”

“What?”

Mark leans back to look at the woman who just appeared out of nowhere.

“Come with me now. Or this woman dies.”

You freeze. Not daring to turn around. For some reason, that voice immediately ran chills through your body. It took you so off guard that you don’t even know what to think right now. Mark is caught off guard too, just staring at the woman before him.

“Did you hear me?”

The woman then places her hand around your neck, squeezing slightly. Your breath stutters and even nerves in your body are on fire due to the stress you’re going through now.

“…Mark?”

Now I am not going away

Mark stops by your dorm room to check if you were there after the encounter with Anissa. You weren’t. Mark sucks in a breath, gaining an idea of where you might be. He takes off into the night sky, hoping you’re alright.

Knocking on your window at Titan’s penthouse, Mark slowly lets himself inside. You didn’t lock your windows ever since you and Mark first started dating.

“Hey… Oof-!”

You rushed to Mark, instantly crushing him in a hug.

“You’re okay! Oh, thank God you’re okay!”

Mark smiles and hugs you back. No, he’s glad you’re okay. You’re safe and alive. As you should always be.

“I was- I was so scared that maybe that woman might’ve done something to you! Something bad-! I-“

Mark cut off your rambling with a kiss.

“I love you so fucking much.”

Undo all, Return

“Get the fuck away from them!!”

Mark rushes towards Angstrom in rage. Once again, Angstrom opens another portal in front of him, trapping Mark in another dimension.

Angstrom thought Mark wasn’t mad enough. So he brought you into the mix.

While Mark was struggling to survive in another dimension, Angstrom forced Debbie to lure you to the house.

Upon arrival, you were shot in the abdomen immediately. Rendering you immobile. Alive, but barely. You couldn’t move. You could barely speak. Coughing out blood almost every time you breathed.

When Mark was brought back, seeing the sight of you bleeding out and your head under Angstrom’s foot, made him snap.

Roaring, he moves to grab Angstrom. Once again thrown in another portal. This time though, he was brought back quicker. Mark now pauses to plan rather than throw himself in another dimension.

Angstrom laughs in sick enjoyment.

“Hm. I guess this still isn’t enough to push you further. Very well then.”

Angstrom lifts his foot and kicks your motionless body toward Mark. Mark reaches for you instantly, only for a portal to open right before he can get you. Trapping you in another world.

“No!!!”

Another,

“Oh? And what do we have here?”

Rebirth.

butch4butch threesome with a nervous baby butch getting his fucking guts rearranged by some older dykes

this was really fun!! longer than my normal ones but slutty and hot

your skin sticks to the inside of your leather jacket, warm from the night outside. still, you had brought it with you, convinced you looked cooler when you wore it. and maybe you did! was that really something for you to decide?

striding forward, you navigate through crowded pathways bumping into people as you go. it's not too crowded tonight, but there are definitely some unfamiliar faces. there's a beautiful lady you'd never seen off to the side wearing a denim vest and plaid dress that hugged her in all the right places- she was a total babe. it looked like she was waiting for friends, maybe a date? you set off towards her nervously, tripping a little on your shoes as you do.

"h-hi," you stammer out, cheeks flushing red. she looks puzzled but amused by you.

"hi?" she responds quizzically.

"i-i was just wondering if you-" a tall, lean figure slides in next to the woman, their arm wrapping around her waist, promptly ending the conversation.

feeling humiliated, you turn and rush to the bar, desperately in need of a drink. your arm brushes against someone else's as you sit down and you're even more aware of how goddamn hot this jacket really was. you peel it off of yourself, flustered at how the night had started. putting your head in your hands, you let out a sigh, biceps involuntarily flexing as you grow frustrated.

"rough night, huh? here," the voice startles you, but it was thick and rich, like syrup. looking up, you find a shot you didn't order on the bar in front of you. your chest tightened when you saw the body the voice belonged to.

"i'm beau," they continued. beau was leaning against the bar, one elbow propped up to steady them. they wore nice jeans that hugged their tummy beneath the tucked in flowy shirt that hung off their shoulders. a large brimmed cowboy hat sat perfectly over what you thought was a curly mullet, though it was too dark to tell. the gold of their necklace glinted at you off their chest, causing your eyes to flutter and your mind to slam back to reality. you'd never really been on for butches but something about them was enticing.

"h-hi. hi beau. i'm jay. is this for me?" you ask, gesturing to the shot.

they laugh, turning around to put both arms on the bar.

"yeahhhhh, seems like you got it pretty rough over there. we watched the whole thing and i remember times bein like that, figured we could lend a hand. this is lou,"

before your mouth could catch up to ask questions, a second person emerged from beside beau, taller and more sturdy looking. they were stunning, too. long, dark hair fell from beneath a bandana and onto a white, fitting tank top. their arms were wide, too big to see individual muscles but built nonetheless. a similar necklace to beau's is around around their neck, swaying gently as they waved.

"to jay!" lou's voice was loud and boisterous, filling the room with joy and your stomach with embarrassment. you feel your cheeks running hot again, but you're not sure they ever returned to their normal color in the first place. you didn't have time to think though, lou and beau were holding their shots up high, waiting for you to do the same. reluctantly, you clinked your glass on theirs and downed the shot.

it burned. it felt nice, too. it was relieving to know you could feel something other than humiliation.

slamming the glass down, you looked up to find beau and lou staring back at you eagerly with wide eyes that had a "tell us everything" look in them. maybe it was their disarming stare, maybe it was the shot. either way, you felt inclined to speak to them, to let it out and put all your cards on the table.

"i just! i don't know what i'm doing wrong," you exclaim, the edges of your body and mind blurring from the alcohol.

"i feel like every time i see a pretty girl, i clam up. i can't ever get further than hi or they're already taken by someone hotter than me or they don't like butches or god forbid, they're straight!"

"well, do you like butches?" lou asked, leaning back onto the bar how beau had. a toothpick hung out of their mouth and you could tell both of them were amused by your woes.

the question caught you off guard. you'd never really... thought about it? yes.. you liked butches; both your friends and yourself fell into that category, but you hadn't ever been with one. you'd never looked at one.. like *that.* until tonight, really. you mulled over the words for a second, trying to parse if you actually were into butches, but you found it hard to focus with both of them looking back at you.

"do.. do i like butches?"

they both chuckled.

"yes," beau answered, "do you like butches?"

you figured since you'd already been this honest with them, might as well go all the way.

"maybe? ive never been with one or even flirted with one,"

beau and lou leaned in closer to you, frowning and pushing their bottom lips out comically.

"we aren't good enough to flirt with?" both immediately broke their gaze and burst into laughter, obviously getting off on making you feel even more nervous.

the words caught up to you and before you had a chance to stop them, they spilled out of your mouth.

"no, no! you're both very handsome, i've just. i've never met another butch who likes butches, it's new."

you saw lou waving the bartender down behind beau to order another round but your vision was filled with beau's charming smile as they leaned in closer to you, inches from your face.

"it's as old as time, hun."

a new feeling overcame you now, causing your stomach to churn with something you'd never felt. it was enchanting to speak with them. they both felt so calming, so real and kind. beau waited several moments before pulling away from your face, only interrupted by lou offering up the shots they'd just ordered.

"ooh, what'd i miss, babe?" lou leans in to kiss beau's jawbone, causing them to shut their eyes and grin drunkenly. a kiss? were you reading the situation correctly? you thought they'd been flirting with you at least a little bit. had you fucked this up too?

"ohhh, nothing. just seeing if jay here wanted to come home with us tonight, that's all."

the words were a shock to your system, you hadn't expected it. "with us." were they both flirting with you? did you care? you came out tonight hoping to get laid, hoping to please some pretty girl. how was this any different?

lou and beau stared at you expectantly, waiting for an answer with eager eyes.

stammering, you reply,

"i-i. yeah. yes, i want- let's do that."

the two of them smiled at you and rolled their eyes slightly. beau raised their shot glass and offered a toast. you slammed this shot easier than the first.

beau closed the tab as lou dragged you towards the door. as you strode to the door, lou's firm grip around your wrist, you notice the girl from before and shoot her a smirk. she doesn't look amused anymore.

lou pulls you towards their truck, pushing you against the bed of it before leaning into you. they smelled delicious; slightly sweet.

"man, you really are cute, can i kiss you?"

your mind is racing and you nod without even realizing. seconds later, warm lips part your own and a large hand cups the side of your face. lou kisses you hungrily, almost like they want to eat you up. you'd always led encounters before, kissing other girls like this but you let them take the lead, excited for the break. footsteps startle you back to reality and you look up to find beau striding across the gravel.

"i-i. holy shit, i'm so sorry. i didn't-"

"when's my turn?"

you find yourself frozen for a moment before beau walks up to you, pulling you by your belt loops into them. they lean down to you and you find that the kiss they offer is incredibly similar and totally different from the one lou had just given you. complementary of one another.

the sound of the truck starting causes beau to pull away again, looking to you and nodding back to the truck.

it's a one cab truck and lou is already in the driver seat, so you pile in together, your body squeezed between lou's and beau's.

the drive was uneventful, though beau and lou's hands wandered up your jeans gently, similar to how you would've slid your hand up a skirt. this flustered you. their movements were totally in sync and made your skin feel electrified, but not hot like that damn jacket had.

lou pulled up to a nice apartment and the two of them led you inside, giggling and looking at each other as they walked ahead of you. they pulled you into the home, taking your jacket and hanging it for you before leading you to a couch.

"are you thirsty? can we get you anything?"

you figured you could use some water and said as much, hoping your future self would thank you. your mind felt fuzzy from the shots you had taken and the kisses you had received and your heart raced with anticipation for what was to come.

"this is a really nice place.. do you both live here?" you ask naively.

lou giggled and smiled back at you, untying their boots as they did. you tried not to look down their shirt when they bent over but it was futile.

"yeah, we've been together for the last 10 years and have lived here for... oh i don't know 5-6 years now? babe?"

"probably 6," beau responded, setting a glass of water down in front of you before turning back towards the kitchen. fix

"wow, that's.. that's really beautiful, i'm happy for you.. i didn't realize how beautiful butch couples could be, i guess. no offense, oh my god that sounded awful, i'm- that's not what i-"

"calm down," lou sat down next to you, running their hand from your knee upwards,

"you're doing fine."

you felt yourself begin to loosen up, comforted by the reassuring presence of them both. beau returned from the kitchen and sat down on the other side of you, their warm body pressed against yours. they handed you a beautifully wrapped joint and asked you with their velvety voice if you smoked.

you hadn't smoked all week, this was so kind of them. lou offered a lighter from a nearby table and you lit it up, smoke filling the air around you and inside you quickly. you coughed more than you would have liked and were thankful for the water beau had just gotten you.

you figured you should take it easy, only taking a few hits from it while lou and beau finished it up and you all had small talk.

as the high crept in, you felt yourself more relaxed than you had been all night. you DID love butches and you felt safe here. you felt excited and invigorated about trying something new.. you wondered how it would feel to just.. let go. let them take complete control. you couldn't stop thinking about how both of their lips had felt on yours..

"can we take care of you?" lou's words interrupted your thoughts. looking up, you found the two of them looking back at you from either side, hands gently on your lap. with a nod you let out, "please," with far more desperation than you had meant to.

like a well trained animal, the two of them descended onto you in coordinated bliss. you felt your eyes roll back as beau's hands caressed your jawline and their lips traced your neck. lou was busy exploring you with their hands; squeezing your bicep, running their hands through your hair, unbuckling your belt. you'd always loved the sight of someone at your knees like that but you didn't know what it was like to actually receive from someone.

all three of you let out little moans and took turns kissing. at one point, both of them were pressed in close to you with your arms pinned beneath you. together, they kissed and licked your neck and jawbone at the same time and you could feel yourself melting into a puddle for them.

eventually, lou left the room to get something. beau pulled at your pants now, urging them off your legs and sliding them onto the floor. god, they were so hot looking up at you like that. you wanted one of them to touch you, to fuck you. you could feel how wet you were, something you rarely let yourself enjoy during other hookups. beau looked up at you with needy eyes, practically drooling over you. it was this moment you decided to fully give in. the bud and drinks from earlier had played their part and now it was time for you to experience ecstasy. as their fingers pulled at your boxers, it revealed your dripping bush and shaking legs. you smiled as you felt beau's mouth kissing and biting the inside of your thighs. their fingers brushed gently across your skin, barely touching where you so deeply needed it. just then, lou emerged.

your breath caught at the sight of them; leather buckled strap hanging from their hips, same white tank top from before, a ravenous look in their eye. you felt your cunt tense up and beau's lips smiling against your skin. in one heavenly motion, beau's lips parted your own, their tongue exploring parts of you that had never been explored before. tiny bits pulling at your skin made your head fall back and every time their tongue circled around your clit, you let out a pleading moan.

lou sat down next to you, pulling your open mouth into a sweet, warm kiss. you found it hard to focus as beau's tongue fucked you, licking around your folds and in and out of you while their soft moans vibrated your clit. still, you returned the favor and kissed lou back the best you could, pausing every few moments to moan into their mouth when you got overstimulated.

lou's kisses were getting nastier though. their mouth wrapped around your tongue and sucked it, they licked from your neckline all the way up to your ear. they were pulling your head back by your hair when you felt a soft pressure from below. instantly, you felt fireworks erupt inside of you as beau's fingers pushed inside of you.

holy fuck, that felt good. is this what the girls you fucked had felt every time? you pulled away from lou, too distracted now to kiss too. they didn't seem to mind though.. after a few minutes of slowly working their fingers around you and inside of you, you felt them slowly pulling out, wet stickiness clinging to them. you open your eyes and frown at the sight, desperately needing to be filled again.

"wait, please," you moan breathlessly.

a new sensation. hands around your waist.

lou was pulling you onto their lap, onto their strap. you'd never taken one before but now you felt like you might die if you didn't.

lou spread your legs apart from behind you, your back pressed completely against theirs. with perfect gentleness, 2 fingers pressed around your clit and circled it, spit and juices rolling over in their hands.

suddenly, beau was beneath you both, their mouth wrapped around the silicone expertly. you could feel them when they got close to you, their breath warming your cunt. every few seconds, their nose or cheek would graze your leg or your bush and you'd find your legs quaking and quivering.

lou's hands explored your body, pulling your shirt off. with a shock, you felt something hot splatter across your cunt and realized beau had spit in it. like clockwork, lou was using their big arms to lift you up, helping to position you exactly where you needed to be. you pulled your legs underneath you, excited to give this a shot.

beau was here to help. when you were just above the lou's strap, needing to be filled, beau's hand reached out to help. similarly to how you'd tease girls in the past, beau helped lou tease you. their fingers pressed the silicone tip into your folds, but not inside of you. you felt the cold material warm up as lou teased your clit and your hole with the strap. it was really, really hard to focus now, but you could see beau grinning while they watched you squirm.

finally, you couldn't take it anymore. you couldn't handle the teasing. moving your hips yourself, you placed yourself firmly on the strap and sunk down onto it, feeling every inch of it stretch you as you did. it felt so fucking good. what had you been missing this whole time? you could see beau's eyes light up as you slid onto it and lou's hands tightened around your hips as you did.

the two of them were enjoying this just as much as you were, evident by the growls and pants they both let out. you worked your hips over the strap, rolling them and thrusting where it felt best. you let lou completely slut you out; they raised you up, strong and sturdy, and fucked their hips into you, each pulse filling you with a throbbing need for more.

"you're doing so good, handsome."

lou's voice melted over you causing your muscles to scream. you're so preoccupied that you didn't even notice beau leave the room.

they returned wearing their own strap, similar in style to lou's, but this one was bigger, it seemed. your eyes lit up at the sight, ready to climb onto it. lou helped you up, ready to give beau a turn with you.

flipping you onto your stomach, beau pushed their cock in from behind, squeezing your hips and thighs as they did. it was huge, filling you up exactly how you wanted. unknowingly, you began to shake your ass eager to get deeper and deeper onto their shaft. it was more tiring than you had expected, your legs growing weaker from holding yourself up. when this happened, beau firmly gripped your waist and pulled you into them, fucking you raw like a toy. when you were screaming and shaking, legs unable to keep you steady, beau gave you the hardest pounds you had felt all night and dropped you onto the couch face first, all used up.

lou swept in, helping you up and eventually carrying you to their room. they laid you down and kissed your face before getting up to grab you water. beau came in shortly after while you lay there a wet, shaking mess.

"how are you holding up, dear?"

their voice could make you come again.

"i- thank you. holy fuck," you collapsed into their lap as they sat on the bed next to you. soft hands caressed your hair and you were knocked out before lou even made it back with water.

the next morning, you woke to the smell of a delicious breakfast. there were clothes on the bed for you, yours nowhere to be seen. they fit you perfectly. there was a brand new toothbrush waiting in the bathroom for you and after you gathered yourself, you emerged to find lou and beau both grinning at you over freshly made coffee.

you spent the morning with them, longer than you would have with a precious hookup. they fed you a delicious breakfast and gave you your clothes back, washed and folded. when you were finally ready to leave, you turned to change back into your clothes.

"why don't you keep them, hmm?" beau asked.

"what? i don't need-" you interjected, not wanting to take their things.

"but then," lou continued, "you can bring them back.. and we could see you again."

they winked, looking at you the same way they had last night when they had been deep, deep inside you.

"i- okay, yeah. yeah. i'll see you both again," you replied, already thinking of how badly you wanted to fuck them again.

they called you an uber back to the bar where you picked up your car and drove home in a stunned silence. every bump in the road made you grind your hips or clench your cunt.. when you got home, you found a note in your clothes with both their numbers and within a week, you were back in their arms; their thick cocks in either side of you.

[strayflowersstarsandlove]

Big heart (bangchan)

"Hey, sweet girl", Chan hums softly, planting a kiss on your temple as you grin at him from your privileged, favorite spot, just beneath his collarbone, sitting in between his legs as he works away on his computer and you mindlessly scroll your Instagram feed while waiting for him to finish up work for the night.

"Hi", you reply timidly, shifting a little on his lap so your back can rest against his chest when he wraps his free arm around your waist, "you're still comfy there? Do you need to stretch out a little?", he asks then, slowly rolling his studio chair away from his desk so you can, in fact, stretch your legs out in front of you, which feels real nice after the few quiet hours you already spent just sitting there, enjoying the warmth and the sweet, comforting scent of your boyfriend.

"Mmh thank you, I actually needed that. But you are indeed very comfy, Channie's chest is my favourite place, always", you add then, cutely, reaching backwards for his cheek and placing a kiss there that makes him grin back at you from ear to ear.

"Sooooo whatcha looking at? I saw you liking a bunch of posts earlier, are you looking for new clothes inspiration like Innie does?", he asks giggling, glancing briefly at your phone screen, currently displaying a recently-turned model influencer showing off her new plunging V-shape neckline dress. You sigh slightly and shift uncomfortably in your seat," yeah... Definitely the clothes", you mumble. Chan knits his eyebrows together and looks at you with a concerned look on his face, patiently waiting for you to elaborate.

Truth was that you had only re-installed Instagram around the same time most of the boys got their individual profiles, just so you could keep up with their content and fangirl over how handsome your boyfriend looked in every single picture. You had previously deleted the app out of frustration and hopelessness in seeing all those beautiful people on there, showing off their perfect bodies and lifestyles and wealth, it had made you feel like a loser cause you had a regular, average job and mostly, you had an average body that you never showed off.

Your small chest had made you feel extremely insecure ever since you were 15 years old cause that was about the age it stopped developing, and you hated it. Seeing all those girls having stunning bodies, some even younger than you, made you feel like crap.

"Chan, do you think I need to get a boob job?", you blurt out, your finger swiping up to the next picture, another perfect, curvy, modelesque girl appearing on the screen. You're not really sure why you worded it that way. Your boyfriend was the kindest, most accepting, the nicest NICEST guy you've ever met. He never made you feel less than. Always made sure he slipped a compliment into casual conversations whether in person or via texts.

"What?", Chan chuckles, a little flabbergasted, he fully picks you up from his chair, making sure to take your phone and place in on his desk first,and then gently plops you down on the couch, crouching forward with his elbows resting on his knees as he faces you, looking straight in your eyes, "alright, what's happening? Why would you ever think that?".

You shrug and start biting nervously at your cuticles, "I don't know... You're surrounded by so many beautiful idols, you're friends with all these beautiful girls and they all look fuller chested than me, everyone looks curvier than me, really. I think even Han and Binnie could fill out a bra better than I can. Everywhere I look I see these perfect bodies, girls 2 to 5 years younger than me looking like full grown women while I just look like I'm still stuck in my pre adolescent body".

Chan takes both of your hands in his and rubs them gently, "y/n, sweetheart, I'm not remotely interested in anyone but you. I chose you because of you heart, I thinks that's the most precious thing about you, and the biggest too", he giggles, wriggling his eyebrows to lighten up the mood before continuing, "I definitely chose you because of who you are and not primarily for the way you look but it's undeniable you look just as precious on the outside too".

"I know outside validation or loved ones appreciating you can't make up for personal lack of self esteem but I promise, I promise everyone has their own insecurities. Everyone looks at everyone else around them thinking they look so much better. Self love is hard. It comes with time and effort and being constantly fed with unrealistic expectations and overly filtered pics doesn't help that process".

You feel like you could tear up a little as you squeeze Chan's hands, nodding slowly at his words, "you-you're right. It's just so hard not to compare. Every time I try on a cute dress it falls flat on me, all my bikini tops are bandeau cause I look like a little girl trying on her mom's swimsuit otherwise while all my friends and acquaintances either got natural big boobs or they got implants... It's so normalised I feel like I should do it too. I'm not... I don't know how I'm supposed to love my self when all I see is something I lack in".

Chan sighs softly and squeezes your hands back, nodding his understandment, "I know what it feels like. You know I sometimes struggle with the way my nose looks, definitely too big to fit idol beauty standards. But it's what makes me look like me, if that makes sense. What if I get rhinoplasty and I can't recognise myself after? And then I'd have to get more surgery to fix that and then even more surgery on top of it to make it look more natural and it would easily become a vicious cycle".

Chan scrunches up his face cutely, which triggers so much fondness and affection for him you have to restrain yourself from attacking that very same face with kisses.

"Luckily for me I'm surrounded by people who love me the way I am, you and the boys, my family back home, stays. Everyone always preaches the way I look so I try to concentrate on that, on everything I do like about myself and the immense love I receive everyday. And don't get me wrong, sometimes even that can't make me feel 100%better, but some other times it does. It's not linear, but that's okay. It's a journey you know? One day I'll be fully content with it".

Chan now moves from his chair to the spot next to you on the couch, sliding his arm around your shoulder, pulling you close to him, "in the mean time, let me help you. Let me help you love yourself a little more. Everytime you have a single bad thought about your chest, you call me, okay? Or you can text me. If we're together you can just pinch me or yell at me, whatever you like", he giggles, leaning in to kiss your cheek.

"We try that for a while. If it doesn't work even one bit then we'll figure something else out. And if that doesn't work either and you still think surgery would make you happier then I'll hold your hand through it, I'll support you all the way,I'll bring you snacks while you recover, help you get dressed each morning".

You metaphorically and physically melt at his words, cuddling further into his side, letting him kiss your cheek a few times while you mumble your thanks, finding it hard to fight back the tears brimming in your eyes as you bask into the sweet sweet light that your boyfriend is, "if I actually end up having surgery I'll just show the surgeon a pic of your chest, I think. My man has such a big... heart", you tease, poking his pectorals, almost sending him into a fit of giggles.

[crossdressingdeath]

It's so weird to me seeing people complain about Bioware making too many decisions about Rook because the big decision Bioware made is simply that Rook absolutely has to be someone who can and will become the good, loyal, quick-witted leader this team needs to succeed. Which... isn't that different from how Hawke has to be the sort of person who'll stay in Kirkwall even after they've got together enough cash that they could leave (by act 3 at the latest Hawke could absolutely get their whole party together and skedaddle) even though staying in that cesspool (affectionate) is an insane thing to do, especially if they're a mage. I'd argue that it's actually a lot less limiting; Rook has to be a good leader and good friend, but Hawke has to be the sort of person who'd stay in a city that wants them and/or at least some of their friends dead just because they've decided they like the place despite having the resources to get out of there. (None of this is a criticism against Hawke's writing, it's very fun to me that they stay in Kirkwall, but we do have to acknowledge that it's a batshit choice they've made.) It's very hm to me that when the writing limitation is "you have to be nice to your friends" the writers ~limiting player freedom~ is suddenly a huge problem.

Anyway yeah, the reason why I love Rook so much (more than Hawke tbh, but that's just personal preference; I like the way the different dialogue tones interact with Rook's non-player-choice dialogue better than the personality system in DA2) is that they have enough set personality and history that who they are can actually matter in-game. In DAI and to a lesser extent DAO (the origins are absolutely very fun and cool but they mostly come up specifically in origin-related areas and quests and all Wardens are roughly the same outside of them; for example you can say in the Circle origin that Surana comes from Lothering or the Denerim alienage but that will not come up when you visit those areas, the alienage quests play the same for Surana as they do for Mahariel) the player character is basically just a stand-in. They're kept pretty vague largely so the player can project their own character onto them (to the point where Quiz's dialogue has basically zero personality of its own, although the Warden still gets some very good lines), and that's not inherently a bad thing but it means that they as in-game characters—by which I mean the character as written without bringing in headcanon or a given player's created backstory, literally just dialogue and actions—kind of fade into the background and who they are pretty much only comes up for the race/class lines. And that's the point, I'm pretty sure they were deliberately designed that way for headcanon purposes, but it's still a thing. Meanwhile Rook is very much the main character! They're not always the centre of attention but they're very much the main character and they remain the main character throughout! You're embellishing a character rather than creating one from scratch, which does mean less player freedom but it also means Bioware can give them more ties to the narrative and more interactions with the people around them and just more dialogue in general in a way that would be pretty much impossible to pull off satisfactorily if some details weren't set in stone. Which is a better way of writing a player character ultimately comes down to personal preference, there isn't an objective right answer, but Rook and Hawke are much stronger characters in their own right—again we're talking about the characters as written in-game, all four of these PCs can be as strong or weak as the player makes them in headcanon—than the Warden and Quiz because Bioware made decisions that made it possible for them to be more connected to the story!

Varric: But being a leader isn't about having all the answers yourself: It's about knowing who does.

See, this is why I really don't understand those posts whining about how Rook isn't the coolest member of the Veilguard and everyone else has much more useful skills and whatnot. Rook may not necessarily be the fastest or strongest or smartest member of the team, but what they do have is the ability to make plans, improvise when those plans go wrong, inspire their allies, earn their trust and love, encourage them to work together and put aside their differences, and use each one of them to the fullest extent of their abilities to further the team's goals. A leader doesn't have to have all the answers or be the best fighter or have the most interesting and detailed backstory (hell, you really don't want that last point for the PC of an RPG), they have to be able to lead. The best fighter or cleverest trickster in the world is useless in a position of authority if they can't use that authority effectively without alienating their allies. And Rook ultimately is able to lead, probably better than anyone else on the team could, because that's where their skillset lies. People really need to get rid of this idea that the role of The Leader automatically goes to whoever's "coolest". It's not a reward, it's an incredibly demanding job that for best results has to go to whoever is best suited to carry it out. Rook doesn't have the flashiest skills, but they do have the skills required to lead well and win loyalty, and for the leader of a team like this that is infinitely more important.

SR Deuce Spade - Night Sky Chiffon Vignette

I heard him challenge me and I just…

[Library – Entrance Hall]

Riddle: The Princess in the Tower used a frying pan on a thief built like a brick in the closet…

[staaaaare]

Jack: ME!?

Kalim: I mean, you're the tallest out of all of us, right?

Deuce: There aren't any closets in the library… So I guess we'll need to use a supply room instead.

Jack: Hey, don't just ignore me! How were you planning on using "this" to lock me in, anyway?

Deuce: That's where I'm stuck. Housewarden, none of the books said how it was done, right?

Riddle: Correct. There's nothing written other than "The thief was locked up using the frying pan."

Deuce: So we gotta come up with something on our own, huh. Hmmm… I can't really think of what to use it for other than frying eggs.

Jack: I think "frying eggs" is a bit too specific. But I do agree, I can't think of anything else but using it to cook.

Kalim: Saaame. I can't think of anything.

Riddle: Perhaps when she came across the thief, she just happened to have a frying pan in her hands.

Deuce: I see. I guess if you're holding a frying pan, it could be used to intimidate a thief somewhat.

Deuce: Plus, maybe if I raised it up high like this…

Jack: Hmph, what, you think that's threatening?

Jack: It's said he was a thief, so he's probably had to deal with guards, or needed to run for long periods.

Jack: But the princess had been locked up in the tower forever, and never squared off against another person before.

Jack: Can't imagine the thief would ever lose to the princess unless he was somehow tied down or something.

Deuce: Who knows? The princess was always doing a ton of climbing, which woulda build up muscle.

Jack: What, you wanna go?

Deuce: Yeah, let's go!

Kalim: Ahahaha, suddenly Deuce's the Princess in the Tower and Jack's become the thief!

Riddle: You two are getting too heated. Leave your little tiff for later.

Deuce: Ah, sorry! I heard him challenge me and I just…

Deuce: …Oh!

Deuce: What if the princess didn't fight him or use force to stop him, but challenged him to something to make him listen to her?

Kalim: What's that supposed to mean?

Deuce: Jack just said, "Can't imagine the thief would ever lose to the princess," right?

Deuce: What if the thief also thought the same thing? I bet he wouldn't turn down a challenge from the princess, then.

Riddle: I see, so she used his carelessness to her advantage.

Jack: If what Deuce says is true and he lost to her in some way, I can understand the thief listening to her, sure…

Jack: But that still doesn't explain how the frying pan was used.

Kalim: Mmm… Oh hey, maybe it was used for tennis? A frying pan and a racket are pretty much the same thing.

Riddle: There's no ball, now is there? And it would be a massive issue if a ball or racket were to hit the books!

Riddle: Although, it may not be too bad of an idea to consider some sort of game that would utilize something similar to a frying pan.

Deuce: Something similar to a frying pan, huh. It'd have to have a rounded end and a thin handle…

Deuce: …A spoon?

Deuce: Oh yeah, if it's that one game that uses a spoon, then...!!

Kalim: Hm? You come up with something, Deuce?

Deuce: Yes! The "Egg Race"!

Jack: Egg Race? What's that?

Riddle: It's a common game that's played on sports days back in the Queendom of Roses.

Deuce: You balance a whole egg on a spoon and run towards the goal. The fastest one is the winner.

Deuce: I think the rules are different depending on where it's played, like some places'll disqualify you if you drop the egg, and others just make you start all over.

Jack: So, in other words, you're saying we should try playing this Egg Race thing with a frying pan instead of a spoon?

Deuce: Yeah. Wouldn't that make it a challenge that can be done with a frying pan?

Kalim: I like the idea! Oh, but… We don't have eggs. Should we ask someone to bring some?

Riddle: I find it hard to believe that an egg would fall easily from the surface of a frying pan, in the first place.

Deuce: It'll work. I've thought about that too!

Deuce: We still have a ton of sugar cubes left over that was brought in with the tea set.

Deuce: We'll stack them up high in the center of the frying pan, and whoever makes it to the goal without letting them topple over wins.

Deuce: How's that sound?

Riddle: It's not that difficult to stack cubes of sugar, though…

Kalim: Ack, they all fell over when I picked up the frying pan. It's gonna be hard to run while keeping it balanced.

Riddle: But it may be easy to implement in the library… Let us try Deuce's idea.

Deuce: Alright. So, Jack!

Deuce: IT'S TIME TO DUEL, YOU AND ME, WITH THIS SUGAR CUBE RACE!

Jack: What!?

[Library – Entrance Hall]

Deuce: Alright. So, Jack!

Deuce: IT'S TIME TO DUEL, YOU AND ME, WITH THIS SUGAR CUBE RACE!

Jack: What!?

Riddle: Ah, yes, if we are to consider this a competition between the prince and the thief, then a head-to-head duel is appropriate.

Kalim: Ahahah! Jack and Deuce, one-on one, huh! This is gonna be good～!

Deuce: If I win against you, I'm gonna have you go into that supply room over there.

Jack: You really want that duel with me, huh… What are you trying to pull here?

Deuce: Nothing? Oh, I get it. You're scared.

Deuce: I mean, if you think you can't beat me, we can think of a different idea…

Jack: Huh? Who's scared?

Jack: I didn't say I wasn't gonna do it. I'll take you on!

Deuce: The goal is the bookshelf on the far wall. The one who can make it there without letting the sugar cubes fall over wins.

Jack: Yeah, yeah, I know the rules. Let's start already.

Kalim: Okay, get yourselves lined up. Ready… SET, GO!

Jack/Deuce: LET'S GOOOO!!!!!

[dash!!]

Jack: Woah, the sugar cubes almost fell over already.

Jack: Tch… I want to pick up more speed, but running without letting it fall is taking all my focus.

Riddle: His sugar cubes almost toppled over right at his starting dash, but it looks like he recovered somehow.

Riddle: It seems like Jack has changed it up and opted to take larger strides.

Riddle: There's not a single wasted movement in his steps, he's very consistent. I'm sure his core is very well built.

Kalim: Jack's just zooming along! But Deuce hasn't moved at all from the start line.

Kalim: He's been adjusting how he holds the frying pan for a while now… Is he having trouble keeping the sugar cubes standing?

Riddle: No… Take a look. DEUCE IS OFF AND RUNNING!

Kalim: He's so fast!! But if he hurries too much, the sugar cubes'll fall over.

Kalim: …Huh, they're not moving at all. Deuce is almost caught up to Jack. This is turning out to be an awesome match!

Riddle: This is no time to be enjoying the race with your commentary. It will all come down to whether this can be considered passable for this specific anecdote.

Kalim: Oh, right. But we can still cheer for them, right? KEEP IT UP, YOU TWO!!!

Riddle: How carefree… Oh.

Riddle: Deuce has almost caught up to Jack, even though he had a delayed start…!

Jack: Urk, when did you...!

Deuce: You sure you can afford to look away? I'll be taking the lead now!!

Jack: Wait! Dammit, his running is so smooth…!

[dash!!]

Kalim: Deuce has passed Jack… and widened the lead!!

Riddle: THE RACE IS OVER! THE WINNER IS DEUCE SPADE!!

Deuce: YEAH!

Kalim: Deuce, you did amazing catching up. I totally thought Jack was gonna win.

Riddle: Indeed. I hadn't expected you to be able to run at such speeds while keeping yourself steady as you did.

Jack: …So it's not like you were trying to pull some trick on me, but you were challenging me in something you knew you could win in.

Jack: Tch… It's your win, Deuce.

Kalim: Huh, what's that mean?

Deuce: I knew I'd be able to win in the sugar cube race, is all.

Deuce: I've had tons of experience riding blastcycles up bumpy gravel roads and steep slopes.

Deuce: I'm pretty confident in my ability to keep my balance.

Riddle: So, back at the starting line, were you adjusting your grip on the frying pan, trying to figure out the best way to hold it steady?

Deuce: Pretty much, yes.

Jack: Looks like I got provoked into it.

Jack: I hate to say it, but a loss is a loss. I'll let myself get shoved into the supply room.

Jack: I'm ready to go. Do it now, Deuce!

Deuce: RIGHT, HERE WE GO, JACK!!

[SLAM!!!]

[Exterior Hallway 2F]

Riddle: We're finally back on the campus proper. We can still see the lanterns so clearly from here.

Kalim: It's so pretty～ I'm glad I get to enjoy this view with you guys.

Kalim: And hey, that sugar cube race thing that Deuce came up with sure was fun. We should all do it someday!

Deuce: I'm up for it. Though, I might just sweep all of you.

Jack: Yeah, right. I'll be the one to win it next time.

Riddle: I've grasped the concept after watching Deuce. If I participate, I won't stand to lose, either.

Deuce: You too, Housewarden…!? But, fine. Doesn't matter who I go up against, I'll never lose!

Based on this lovely artwork by @burntwavez

Divider by @strangergraphics

It was a calm evening. You were alone in your apartment. Your plan was to put on some chick flicks, eat junk food till you pass out, bloated on the couch. The area you lived in was the shady part of the town, and Some freaks were going around pretending to be ghostface from the movie Scream" and killing people. You wondered if it was the same person or people joining in like a trend. Either way, it was scary. But you were smarter than that. You kept pepper spray in your bedside drawer, you made sure to lock your windows and doors before sleeping. It was a nightly routine: you do your skincare, wash the dishes, lock the doors and windows, and go to bed. And so far, you had not even heard so much of an uncharacteristic sound ever, obviously because you were alert and aware.

Today was a hot day. The curtains were fluttering, and the wind came in occasionally. You made sure to lock your door in case you fell asleep and forgot to do so. But you kept the windows open. Surely no one would enter through the windows on the only day you kept them open. Plus, your apartment was on the th floor, so no one would climb the wall.

You order takeout, it arrives within 15 minutes, and you double bolt the door and change into a pair of shorts and a big t-shirt with multiple stains on it. Who cares anyway? Today is all about you. The start of a relaxing weekend after work. Eating junk and relaxing. Life couldn't get better than this.

You plop down on the couch, keep your phone on the coffee table, and start the marathon with the food spread out. Popcorn, cheese puffs, expensive mac and cheese with garlic bread, Diet Coke to cancel all that out. 

It's around 11 pm when our phone rings. You snap awake, you must've fallen asleep watching all that and eating. You pick up the phone.

“Hello?” you answer with a groggy voice

“Is this y/n l/n I'm speaking to?” says the voice of a man

“Yes, this is her.” You rub your eyes and sit up a bit, and your back hurts from sleeping on the couch.

“Oh, miss L/n im the security from downstairs, i called to inform you, your amazon package has arrived but the elevator was out of service when your package arrived so the delivery person left it with me, and i'm off my shift so the next guard might not remember to give you your package. Please come collect it from me,” he says. You're grateful for him informing you, but you're too lazy to even put on shoes and go down 9 flights of stairs.

“Oh um…. Listen, let's meet halfway. Leave the package on the 3rd-floor stairs, I'll pick it up from there, yeah?” you say, hoping he at least does that.

“No problem, miss! I'll leave it by the 3rd floor stairs. Goodnight, miss,” he says and cuts the call.

You peel yourself off the couch, put on some shoes and go to open the door, but the door is stuck. Sigh. Old building fixtures You make a mental note to get it fixed. You give it a firm push, and it opens up finally. Before you close it, you think that if it gets stuck again by the time you come back, it'll be too much work. You leave the door slightly ajar; after all, you'll quickly go downstairs and come back up.

So you do that. You run to the 3rd floor, it takes you a minute to realise he left it hidden behind a plant. You grab the package and rush upstairs, but you hear the elevator ding. Is the elevator working? Stupid guard. Didn't even fact-check before feeding you the information. You were on the 6th floor when you decided to use the elevator. You enter the elevator, your legs achy from going up and down the stairs. The elevator starts, and of course. Stupid, stupid Y/n. The elevator shuts down. You're stuck. You call your neighbor to come and do something. He is around the same age as you. He is 19, and you are 21. He shifted to this apartment for his sophomore year in college. But he doesn't pick up. Of Course it's Saturday, maybe he's gone out with friends. You look up a tutorial on youtube on how to get out of an elevator.

The guide tells you to look for a bolt on the top somewhere and pull it. Sure enough, you do that, and the elevator door opens, and you climb out of it. You take your package and walk to the 9th floor. The door, by the wind, opened more and the thought that your apartment thaf was left open to anyone is scary for 15 minutes. But after all the elevator was out of service and you didn't see anyone use the stairs. You enter and lock your door and go back to the couch. You don't even wanna watch the movies, just go to sleep. You don't go to your bedroom. You watch a few TikTok videos and drift to sleep on the couch.

After a while, Your phone rings loudly, and you jolt awake. Your heartbeat spikes through the roof, and you wake up in a pool of sweat.

The time was 1:34 A.M.. you have to take a second to wake up and realise that the annoying loud noise was coming from the phone. You see it's someone calling, an unknown id. You pick up the call and don't immediately answer. You yawn before speaking.

“Hello?” you rub your eyes and look for your package. Now that you're awake, you might as well open it. You reach for it on the coffee table and realise you maybe kept it somewhere else. Then a voice from the phone spoke.

“Hello.” It's a gnarly and rough voice and sounds oddly familiar

“Who's this?” you again yawn, and answer

“What's your favorite scary movie” and that voice and the time made you jolt awake. Your heartbeat once again spiked and you frantically get off from the couch. Then you pause. Youre not in a fucking movie. And you assume it's a kid using a voice changer.

“Ha ha ha, very funny kiddo. Go to bed; it's like 2 am.” You're about to cut the call when

“I'm inside your house.”

.

.

.

.

What the fuck

.

.

.

No wait. Your apartment isn't so big that if there was someone inside, you couldn't hear them. Also, it's not a house.

“I don't live in a house, idiot.”

“Same thing. Now, what's your favorite scary movie?” the voice persists.

“Jesus Christ. Its um scream” you answer, not in the mood to continue this

“Good choice, you know-” you end the call.

You huff and lay back on the couch and you hear a chuckle from somewhere inside your house.

You are fucked

No, wait, that was just in your-

Creeeeeekk, the floorboard goes, and you swear you couldn't do anything. Your heart feels heavy, your throat is closing up, and you are trembling. Your fingers are turning cold, and you look around for the source of the noise. You almost wanted to sink back into your coach as if this was a bad dream, but the way your body was sending you in a fight or flight response, you knew this was immediate danger.

‘Fuck,’ you mumble and look around, sweating and freezing simultaneously. It only made sense to leave the house and run away. You hear the floorboard creek again as if the person could read your mind. And this time, it was much closer. You grab your phone and bolt towards the door and you open it but it's goddamn double bolted. You hastily open it, fingers trembling and not being able to grasp the levers properly. You open one bolt, then a second, and tug at the door for it to open. And suddenly, the power goes out. You panic. Your body is screaming at you to break the door, but you can't do it. Well, what's the harm in trying, with everything in you, you throw yourself at the door, and you're met with a sharp pain and you feel dizzy with the sudden impact. You keep trying to open the goddamn door. The floorboard creaks this time much closer, and the door finally opens, and you step out immediately.

Only to be met with something pulling you back and slamming the door shut. It didn't even register what happened till you were thrown on the floor. Your whole body was in excruciating pain, and you are so close to passing out, but the survival mode in you keeps you alert somehow.

You see a tall menacing figure with that ghostface mask and a shiny knife, acquired from your own apartment.

Your brain can't think. It's literally shut down. Your heart is hammering in your chest, your ears are ringing loudly, and your head hurts before you know it.

Everything is silent, and so are you. 

You pass out

.

.

.

tick

tick 

tick 

tick

tick

You wake up, and the first thing you notice is that you're bound. On your bed. You panic and try to struggle, but a hand presses down on your chest and shushes.

“Shhhh, doll, calm down. No one's gonna hurt you.” Your eyes dart upwards at the voice and you notice the broad and tall shadow with a mask on and a black something draping them. You look around and see the knife on the bedside table, and on cue, the person can tell what was going through your head.

“Im not gonna use it on you doll, calm the fuck down” the gravelly and husky voice commanded. But how could you possibly stay calm? 

“Wh-who are you?” you ask, with your voice trembling.

You'd expect a brash answer. But the person takes off their mask and your pussy immedialy pulsates involuntarily.

She was breathtaking; her skin was an earthy brown, and the way the moonlight was falling on her face made her look dangerous but gorgeous. Her eyes were deepset and gray, and were staring down at you., Her hair was tied back in a short ponytail. If only the situation was a bit different and you saw this woman on the regular, you'd spread your legs like a hawk for her in an instant.

Goddamnit be scared

But no your pussy seemed to be doing all the thinking right now

And she could tell

She lets out a chuckle and sits down on the edge of the bed and runs a hand over the ropes you're tied with

“Now, I'm gonna open you up, and you won't try anything smart. If I wanted to kill you, I could've done that a while ago. Capiche?” She raises an eyebrow and waits for your response.

You nod frantically, not sure what you are so giddy about.

The second you're free, she pulls you on her lap with your back flush against her chest and your thighs on either side of her leg. Your cunt was throbbing like a bitch in heat.

And she could feel it.

“Nah, you're too sweet to kill” is the last thing you hear before she pulls your bottoms down, the cold air hitting your core like a tight slap. You hear the clothes fall, and within a second, your t-shirt is gone too, leaving you in your bra.

“Fuck, such a pretty girl” she whispers and bits down on your neck earning a moan from you.

Your body stiffened as you felt her hands trail down, so close to a sensitive pulse, kissing the part where your shoulder and neck connect. She kissed it again and then ran her tongue over it, moaning at the taste of your musk. It made your face go hot and red as her hands ghosted over your drenched pussy, her tongue moving downwards until it licked your collarbone.

She spent a good amount of time running her hands over your naked form before roughly tossing you onto the bed.

“Gosh you're such a dumb slut. Didn't even try to stop me,” she says as she climbs on top of you.

She starts by claiming your lips and taking her time to explore your mouth 

She moved lower, kissing your chest, your stomach, and finally ending between those legs. She couldn't help herself and ran her tongue through your wet folds. She moaned loudly at the taste of you on her tongue. 

“Holy fuck, youre delcious. Such a pretty cunt….” she laps up a fat stripe before delivering a sharp smack on your cunt and diving in.

Your fingers tangled in her hair, holding her where you needed her the most. Her tongue moved faster and faster, and you squirmed beneath her. She grabbed your thighs to keep you in place. She continued to eat your pussy like it was her last meal. 

She was hungry for your taste. It wasn't long before she added her fingers, pushing two of them roughly into your pussy. You moaned with pleasure, wanting more. You tugged at her hair, holding her between your shaking legs. Her movements were still sloppy from the adrenaline rush of seeing you go from being frightened to being a whore just by seeing her face. She mumbled something under her breath as she gently sucked on your clit.

"I’m… I’m gonna... cum... please…  can I cum?" you moaned. Your body trembled as you were closer to the pleasure, as her fingers curled inside you, finding that sweet spot.

"Good girl, asking for permission... such a good girl." she mumbled, pushing another finger into your pussy "Cum for me baby" 

As you came her tongue oushed inside your throbbing cunt, your spongy walls pulsating nd sucking her further in as she sucks you dry,

“Fuck…mmh…..oh god, oh god” you scream and arch your back and your thighs clamp around her head and she revels in the feeling.

“Good girl, scream louder for me” she mumbles into your pussy

As you came down from your high, you thought she would pull away, but she continued eating your pussy. She couldn't hold back, it only took a moment for her to become addicted to your taste. Her free hand pressed gently against your lower abdomen, making you feel just how good she worked you insides up.

"N-no please...too sensitve..." you tried to pull away, but she held you in place. 

“Shut the fuck up and take it.” she barks out and continues assaulting your cunt, the sounds were so so dirty that you felt embarrassed by how you creamed on this intruder’s face.

She continued fucking you not paying attention to the overwhelming pleasure that was spreading throughout your body. Your legs shook as her fingers moved in and out at a rapid pace. You squirmed, moaning and whining, which was like music to her ears.

"I can't...I can't…" You kept screaming. 

“Yes, you can, and you will. Remember who's the one with a knife,” she reminds you of her power.

As you came a second time, she grinned and pulled you into her arms and flipped you on top of her. Her hands move and cup your breasts, and she whispers in your ear. “Name’s Sevika, by the way, and I’m not done with you yet”.

AN: Hope you guys like it!! forgive errors!

I'm sure that many people have already talked about this but one of my favorite things about In Stars and Time is how the game uses its mechanics to encourage you to slowly but surely embody Siffrin's mental state and treat their friends like NPCs.

Like it starts as early as the 'zone out' mechanic is introduced, not so subtly encouraging you to skip through scenes you've already experienced. If you're like me, the first several times, you resisted the urge. You know exactly what the game is trying to do and you don't want to treat the gang like skippable cutscenes. These are Siffrin's friends, even if Siffrin has heard this before it's the first time their friends are sharing these words with them, so surely he wouldn't just zone out.

... but after a while, when it's clear that the loops aren't going to be ending any time soon, when you got so close to finding another piece of the puzzle, another step closer to getting an answer... it's hard not to just... zone through a scene here or there. Sure, you stay tuned for the more emotional moments, you don't want to be a dick, but there's really no obvious consequence for zoning out, so... it's fine, right?

The game gives you the option to take shortcuts, and after enough loops, you take them. They're there for a reason after all, right? With a game that centers so much on replaying the same scenes, it's only natural that you would be given the opportunity to skip around a bit. Don't worry about the implications of Siffrin willingly dying for convenience's sake. It's fine.

By the time the friend quests are introduced there's a dawning sense of dread, that eventually, these too will become something that slowly loses meaning, that you zone through or skip altogether. By the time you reach the final act and Siffrin is treating their friends like actors in a play, hurting their friends one by one, it feels earned. Because even if you tried your best not to skip through everything, even if you tried your best to live all these moments as they went by, that's still fatiguing in its own way. You still were just going through the motions by the end, weren't you? Even trying to be 'good' and not skip through things, they still just became another obstacle for you to overcome to reach the end point, another meaningless scene in a play you've performed a hundred times.

And I think that's also part of what makes the ending hit so hard for me. Because no matter how hard you tried to make a 'perfect' route for Siffrin, no matter how much time you dedicated to doing the Friend Quests and making sure you experienced all those little moments in the castle and did all your little sidequests... in the end, those are not the runs you get to keep.

The world that Siffrin finally breaks out of the timeloop in is the world where they hurt their friends. Where they acted like a jerk and said things they can't take back. But even so, their friends still come and save them. Their family still loves them. Their family knows them well enough to know that something is wrong, that Siffrin wouldn't just act like this for no reason. And even if Siffrin fucked up, even if Siffrin hurt people, he can finally move forward. He can finally have new moments and make new memories. The world you get to keep is the world where you fucked up, but you are still loved. And I just think that's so beautiful.

After dozens of loops where you've done everything in your power to try and 'max out' your points with your friends, treating them like NPCs in a video game that you can 'make' like you by doing or saying just the right thing... it's finally breaking that cycle and revealing just how bad things are for them that Siffrin is able to trigger what needs to be done to finally break the loops. Breaking character and being a person instead of an actor, going off the arbitrary script thy have crafted, is what frees Siffrin. The worst possible outcome for them happened, showing their 'true' self to their friends, showing their ugly side and damaging their trust. But the world doesn't end. Their family doesn't abandon them. Everything works out, somehow, some way, because of the power of friendship and love and honesty. And I love it.

Canon Heights(???) & Carmen Sandiego

Hi all 👋

I've recovered from the month and a half I spent on the Carmen Sandiego timeline and am back to my regularly scheduled obsessing

Which has expanded to the characters and how tall they are because seriously how tall are they oml????

Now, I assume plenty of us have seen this image before:

You can find it on the Official Carmen Sandiego Facebook back from Oct 2019 (not sure about the Instagram or Twitter I'm too lazy to check)

It's widely been used as the canon basis for the character's heights, though I found myself unsure of its reliability

There have been a multitude of posts using the same "Your [Insert Topic Here] Your Carmen Sandiego Character" format, none of which seem to be canon to the show

The Zodiac and Birth Month ones actively contradict each other after all

And I can hear you saying "this really doesn't matter, this is ridiculous online person I don't know"

And you would be correct but I'm nothing if not a nerd so guess what I stumbled upon during my timeline rewatch

Boom

Directly from the show, Graham's mugshot. This is a very frustrating image to be honest because if you look closely between the 5 and 6 foot mark there are 10 lines as opposed to the 12 there should be corresponding to each inch

But oh! There's another image with his mug shot!

This one has no numbers.

So I did what any sane person would do and resorted to math

First I took Chief's image and deleted her from existence, leaving only Graham

Then I undistorted the photo so that it properly lined up with the flat version Bellum displayed so I would know where the foot markers would line up

These were 14 notches apart. Equally unhelpful. So I accepted my fate and pulled out the pixel measurements. Between the 5 foot and 6 foot line was 405 pixels

Between the 5 foot mark and Graham's head was 358 pixels

Using this very simple equation

[A (px) / B (px)] * B (in) = A (in)

We can find out how tall Graham is

358/405 * 12 = 10.61

Round that up to 11 inches and add the 60 inches that makes up 5ft we get a resounding height of 5'11" (or 179 cm)

(if you're confused on why the math works, we know that 405 pixels = 12 inches, we're looking to find what 358 pixels out of that 405 is which is why we multiply that fraction by 12. 405/405 times 12 would equal 12, same idea applies to 358/405. I hope this makes sense.)

For the rest of the characters we can use this lovely height chart

You can find this chart on the Official Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter (I checked). They're separated into individual photos, I just lined them all up into one big one here, it has been unaltered otherwise.

Using the same formula the character's heights are as such (rounded up or down accordingly by the decimals): Coach Brunt: 6'10" (208 cm) Countess Cleo: 6'6" (197 cm) Boris: 6'6" (198 cm) Male A.C.M.E. Agent: 6'4" (194 cm) Cookie Booker: 6'4" (193 cm) Chief: 6'4" (192 cm) Shadowsan: 6'4" (192 cm) Le Chevre: 6'3" (190 cm) Devineaux: 6'3" (190 cm) Prof. Maelstrom: 6'2" (187 cm) Zack: 6'1" (186 cm) Agent Zari: 6'0" (182 cm) Mime Bomb: 5'11" (180 cm) Crackle: 5'11" (179 cm) Carmen: 5'10" (177 cm) Tigress: 5'10" (177 cm) Ivy: 5'10" (177 cm) El Topo: 5'6" (168 cm) Vlad: 5'7" (171 cm) Julia: 5'8" (172 cm) Teenage Carmen: 5'5" (166 cm) Dr. Bellum: 5'3" (159 cm) Player: 5'4" (162 cm) Child Carmen: 3'10" (117 cm) Kid Carmen: 2'6" (77 cm)

What does this mean? Either the cast of Carmen Sandiego is ridiculously tall or this is all vaguely nonsense

Regardless of my dubious findings I thought it was fun and might as well post what I had

The chart itself does have some merit though, using Carmen's 5'7" that is listed in the Facebook post as a basis you get these heights instead:

Coach Brunt: 6'7" (200 cm) Countess Cleo: 6'2" (189 cm) Boris: 6'3" (190 cm) Male A.C.M.E. Agent: 6'1" (186 cm) Cookie Booker: 6'1" (186 cm) Chief: 6'0" (184 cm) Shadowsan: 6'0" (184 cm) Le Chevre: 6'0" (182 cm) Devineaux: 6'0" (182 cm) Prof: Maelstrom: 5'11" (180 cm) Zack: 5'10" (178 cm) Agent Zari: 5'9" (175 cm) Mime Bomb: 5'8" (173 cm) Crackle: 5'8" (172 cm) Carmen: 5'7" (170 cm) Tigress: 5'7" (171 cm) Ivy: 5'7" (170 cm) El Topo: 5'3" (161 cm) Vlad: 5'5" (164 cm) Julia: 5'5" (165 cm) Teen Carmen: 5'3" (159 cm) Dr. Bellum: 5'0" (153 cm) Player: 5'1" (156 cm) Child Carmen: 3'8" (113 cm) Kid Carmen: 2'5" (74 cm)

This one feels slightly less outlandish, but really Player is still stuck at 5'1" as a 16 year old so how realistic can it be

I hope someone enjoyed my ramblings, however inconclusive they may have been 🙌

[khorneschosen]

I do and I'm sure that all the people in your head love you. Because they kind of have to.

I didn't dodge it you'll find the answer in what I talk about and make a conclusion from there and yeah the road should be privatized considering just considering how badly they are currently run.

You guys bemoan road and the lack of public transportation but have you ever considered that roads themselves are constantly being subsidized by the government by means of road construction and road maintenance.

Am I really going to post to studies showing things that you will deny anyway. If you are not convinced by facts then what remains is philosophy and you are not convinced by x You will not radically change your entire perspective of the world because I gave you a really well researched and well sourced articles showing the massive increase of cost to the health care system after the introductions of those two systems.

Also I'm just going to say this right now when you go on about how how my philosophy must be and more important than such and such and such and such I have to ask you the same question. Because I understand which philosophy all of these points of yours come from. And the mountain of corpses that surround that philosophy So I have to ask you the same question is your philosophy more important than every singular person that it killed in order to come into existence? Is your philosophy and your morality more important than the mountains of dead and suffering and miserable people you have created over the ages.

The answer I know is that it is more important to you than any of that. And the scariest part is is that your philosophy your ideas are more important than the human race itself.

If it was a decision between all of humanity and your particular philosophy you would choose your philosophy and damn all of mankind.

And I'll tell you why my philosophy is more important than the particular points you bring up not all of them but the particulars. Because my philosophy prevents the kinds of abuses the kind of inhumanity and irrationality your system does permit your philosophy does permit. And not only does it in permit the end humanity it encourages it.

My philosophy has joy and happiness as if it's emotional goals yours has duty and compulsion as it's goals.

My philosophy has prosperity and wealth as its goals yours has privations and misery as its goals.

My philosophy has strength and beauty as its goals yours is weakness and ugliness as it's goals.

And I know this because I have read the ideas you keep quoting without understanding where they come from.

You keep quoting it like it's safe because it makes sense within the very narrow framework of your personal lived experience but you don't understand where these ideas lead or where they have even come from.

Or worse yet what they consider to be good.

If your system said that to decimate the population is good you would go along with it because that is what your philosophy demands of you and there is no contradiction within it.

Which is often times what it does.

And don't try and know my intent or feelings on these particular subjects because you don't understand the kind of feelings that I have for it. I am not this passionate about my ideas or about the people of this world because they are one in the same. You however consider both to be less important. If your system leads to ruin and destruction that doesn't matter to you and it never has mattered to you.

You can stand upon the corpse of every single person on earth killed by your philosophy and you will not waver from it.

And the thing is I know this is the case because I don't think you have an answer to the questions I'm about to ask you.

How do you know you're right? What is necessarily true about the world in order for you to be right? What would need to be false in order for you to be wrong about your worldview.

Existence exist. Is my proof for all of these questions and some variation of it I don't think you've ever asked yourself these questions what needs to be true about the world in order to know that you're right. How do you know if you can even be right. And under what would you be wrong.

And I don't think you've ever actually had to answer this to yourself. Because your personal philosophy is dog shit

Rising Tide Economics: What is it, and why should you support it?

Hi there! I'd like to introduce you to a bold new way of thinking about economics and how we can build an economy that works for you! 🫵

A rising tide raises all ships!

Rising Tide Economics is based on a single principle. That when you build an economy that supports its members that are most in need, you build an economy that helps everyone!

For a long time, grifters have sold America on a concept we call "trickle down economics." What trickle down economics proponents claim is that when you support the wealthiest people in the country, they will spend their money in ways that benefit the poorest.

For the past 40 years, we have gone all in on supporting the wealthiest in the country, and where has it gotten us? Wealth disparity is larger than ever, the poorest people in the country struggle to get by, and 30% of the wealth is owned by a mere 1% of the population. Meanwhile, the bottom 50% of America splits a mere 2.6% of the wealth between them.

Our middle class is smaller than ever and shrinking.

What's been found is that money given to the wealthiest isn't invested in the economy. It's hoarded.

You cannot raise the tide of the economy by keeping money in the hands of people who would rather accumulate wealth than reinvest it.

"Okay, but I'm a small business owner or entrepreneur or independent contractor. Won't I get poorer if my tax money goes to people with less than me?"

Nope!

First, this is a lie that the mega corporations and the American oligarchs want to sell you on. The truth is that nobody is interested in putting more taxes on small business owners and the middle class.

In reality, if you are a small business owner, entrepreneur or contractor, Rising Tide Economics is going to benefit you more than anyone else.

You have been playing a game that has been rigged from the start. Mega corporations have huge advantages due to their size and wealth that you simply can't compete with. They can sell their goods at lower prices, create monopolies that eliminate all competition, and afford to hire massive lobbying departments that are designed to create laws that will benefit them by killing your businesses and killing your dreams.

Rising Tide Economics is about leveling the playing field.

Let's say that you own a store in a small town. Maybe it's a grocery market or a book store or a clothes shop. Maybe you're a struggling farmer selling goods at a local farmer's market. Whatever it is, you built this business yourself with your own two hands and hard work. Then a Walmart comes in next door.

Corporations like Walmart are able to keep their prices low by negotiating bulk prices through China and other countries where they can get goods cheaper than you could ever dream of yourself. These are options that you do not have access to because you lack the means to compete on this level.

The way Rising Tide Economics benefits you is twofold. First, it forces an opportunity tax onto the mega corporation. If they have greater opportunity than small businesses, then it's only fair to give small businesses a leg up so they can have a fighting chance.

The second way it will help you though is because people want to support your business. They want to buy local. They want to support the up-and-coming entrepreneurs of the world. They don't want to give money to a soulless mega corporation if they can avoid it. But sometimes, you have to do what you have to do to survive. Because the economy forces you into it.

Imagine a woman named Sarah. Sarah is a hard-working mother of three. But wages are too low in this economy to be able to afford her rent and feed her children at the same time. She's living paycheck to paycheck. Sarah would love to have the economic freedom to support your business, but she lacks the opportunity to.

If we can put more money into Sarah's hands, she will have the economic freedom to put it into yours.

What does rising tide economics look like in practice?

Rising tide economics should take a multi-pronged approach towards leveling the playing field and giving The People economic freedom. Here are a few examples:

By providing Medicaid for all, we can ensure that people with medical conditions won't be overburdened by medical debt due to situations they can't control, and can continue to have the economic freedom to contribute to their local economies. This needs to be coupled with efforts at bringing drug prices down across the board to save taxpayer money.

By investing in affordable housing initiatives, we can get people off the streets and into homes, fighting back against a growing housing crisis in the United States.

By investing further into programs that provide food to the hungry, we can ensure that people can not only be fed, but use their cash to invest in other areas of the economy.

And as a long term goal, we should work towards providing a Universal Basic Income. That way everyone can have money to reinvest into their economies.

To pay for these programs, we start by closing tax loopholes that only benefit the wealthiest in the country. Tax loopholes that the mega corporations lobbied for, using legalized bribery to make sure they wouldn't have to pay their fair share. Another unfair opportunity they have that small business owners don't.

After that, we start looking in to opportunity taxes. How much of an unfair advantage does the wealth of a mega corporations allow them to have against the competition? What type of penalties could be applied to make a fair playing field to let smaller competitors keep up with them?

An Era of Rural Revitalization

If you live in a rural area like us, chances are that life hasn't been kind over the past several decades. Sadly, Rural America is dying as industry and wealth becomes more concentrated in the cities. If you're like us, you've probably watched businesses that you love close down or leave because they just can't make enough money in small towns to survive anymore.

Rising Tide Economics seeks to change that by taking the income out of the pockets of megacorporation and putting it into yours! Into your communities!

Under Rising Tide Economics, rural businesses will be able to thrive again, and the American dream will be something attainable no matter where in America you live!

Rising Tide Economics Isn't About Red Or Blue! It's about Green!

It's about money. It's about keeping money flowing, keeping the economy healthy and booming. And it's about getting money into the hands of the people who need it and the people who deserve it!

@robosexualunderground @fortyseveral

had a long, long conversation back in early february with some peeps on the elevator ding discord (i think it was @deluxeyellowflower and @dotsunflowers but there was a third user that i can't recall, i think it might have been jules?, if you two remember or can look up the watch party chat for woe's hollow please lmk) about how innies basically just get an airline menu approach to food (so does seth, according to his performance review scene). you check off your allergies, if you're lucky you get to choose between three or four options at the vending machine, some meals are all the same because it's enough work as it is, watermelons for funerals, pineapples for gift baskets, eggs and waffles for end of the quarter and that's that.

there's no cultural connection, there's no personal history, you can't know what your outie does so you can't risk homecooked meals, you can't risk religious or ethical dietary restrictions. the waffles, you eat alone. the vending machine packages are token-required and tiny enough that even if you were eat them with someone else in the kitchenette, you can stretch it to 15 minutes. the waffle party? it's one person, alone, with their little waffle dish. the egg bar and the parting watermelons are the only food that is meant to be shared and i'm not sure how much of that is a milchick effort, and the egg bar has a time limit, until they have to clock out on the last day of the quarter.

what's for dinner? they've never had dinner, they've never had breakfast (aren't the waffles so exciting), their fucking lunch two tiny boxes of raisins or whatever piecemeal snack they want to give them, including the mocking new options from the lumon is listening video. let's eat a rotting seal carcass because the marshmallows were never meant to be ours and we're starving.

you have your family here with dividers splitting up your shared desk and you can't have a fucking meal together, you have no idea what foods you like, what there is to like at all, you've never been full in your life, you've never talked about what you're eating or about how life's going because this is your life and all of you are witness to everything in each other's existences, or at least are meant to be.

they need to go get fucking hot pot. allegorically and literally.

How to get 'Something more...' with all 3 girls in one Lost Records: Bloom & Rage playthrough.

WELCOME TO VELVET COVE

To start with film the squirrel couple behind the park sign for a dialogue option with Kat later in Nora's garage.

THE DAY WE MET

After the cutscene with Swann at the movie palace, walk over to Nora at the table before the Yooper Scooper closes. She will ask you: "Hey, you! Are you naturally red-haired?" Reply with: "My hair really is red..." (Nora +1)

Stay close to Nora after both of her initial idle dialogues and try to film her. At some point she will interact with you, saying: "Helleeer? Are you filming me?" Reply with: "Is it OK if I film you?" (Nora +1)

Before ordering the drink, film Autumn and choose: "Is it OK if I film you?" (Autumn +1)

Talk to Autumn. Reply either with: "I'll order something". If you choose: "Cute & Grumpy" (Nora +1) If you choose: "Rainbow Snow" (Autumn +1)

I chose Rainbow Snow to gain affection with Autumn because there are a lot more chances for Nora's affection in idle dialogue conversations. If you plan to focus more on Autumn with the call, walk and Echoes of Summer scenes, you could focus on Nora here. For mine, I mainly focused on Autumn if I had a choice, then Kat over Nora because Nora’s affection goes up easily on the idle dialogues you can find across the game and then flirt with her during the truth and dare night.

In 2022, when Autumn greets Swann choose: "(Hug her) It's been ages!" - (Autumn 2022 +1) "I'm still the same old Swann!" (Autumn 2022 +1)

After drinking the milkshake, walk next to Nora and Autumn behind the Yooper Scooper. If you stay close to them and sometimes film them, you can get 3 interactions with Nora and 3 with Autumn (one of them depends on you having previously ordered a drink). Try not to walk directly behind the Yooper Scooper and walk to both sides to trigger the conversations with both Autumn and Nora if they don't trigger on one side.

Try filming Nora and she will say: "Think I could be a movie star?" Reply with: "I'd have to see you in a cone bra." (Nora +1)

Try filming Nora again and she will say: "You want a performance? Romeo, wherefore art thou, Romeo!" Reply with: "What light through yonder window breaks!" (Nora +1)

Keep filming Nora and she will say: "If you're gonna keep filming me, you should pay me, I accept legal US tender and chocolate." Reply with: "How about lollipops?" (Nora +1)

Stay close to Autumn and if you ordered the drink she will say: "Hey! How's the slushy? Did it hit the spot?" Reply with: "The slushy is great! Thank you!" (Autumn +1)

Try filming Autumn and she will say: "Seriously, why would anyone want to film me?" Reply with: "You look cool on camera!" (Autumn +1)

Try filming Autumn again and she will say: "Where was this girl and her camera when I landed a perfect kickflip the other day?" Reply with: "I'd love to film that!" (Autumn +1)

During the fight with Dylan and Corey, choose: "You sure I can come?" - (Autumn +1) then (Laugh) - (Kat +1) after Kat jokes about Dylan.

In 2022, choose: "Thanks - and you look great!" - (Autumn 2022 +1) Be quiet while Autumn speaks (DO NOT choose the "We're not strangers though!" option). If you remained silent, the "Of course" option will appear after Autumn finishes. Choose that option - (Autumn 2022 +1) "I'm ready to face whatever we dig up." - (Autumn 2022 +1) "Me too..." - (Autumn 2022 +1)

THE FIRST NIGHT

During the conversation, there will be a few options for you to choose from. Each of them will improve your relationship with a specific girl, so think carefully about which choice to make. I personally went for the affection choices with Autumn again here because both Nora and Kat's affection is easier to come by. I’d also recommend choosing Kat's affection over Nora during a choice between the two. Nora's affection can easily be changed on the Truth or Dare night, and it’s best to choose the options during Abyss that focus on Autumn.

If you choose: "Corey owes you for the movie, Nora" - (Nora +1) "Thanks for helping me, Kat." - (Kat +1) "I'm sorry he stole your keys, Autumn." - (Autumn +1)

"I'm making a memoir." - (Kat +1)

If you choose: "I love filming the outdoors, Kat." - (Kat +1) "Nora's right - I should film you guys." - (Nora +1) "You're into scary movies, Autumn" - (Autumn +1)

Wait until the third dialogue option appears. If you choose: "What's a... riot girl?" - (Kat +1) "Can I film you playing music?" - (Nora +1)

If you choose: "I think we should help them..." - (Autumn +1) (Nora -1) "Sure, I'll film you, Nora!" - (Autumn -1) (Nora +1)

There are some interactions while you search for the keys (before Swann sees the keys). Do the interaction with Kat first, then Autumn's. Sometimes one or the other doesn't trigger if you do them the other way around. Then do both of Nora's interactions afterwards.

Stay close to Kat. When she is searching near a tree, she will ask you to shine a light on the tree. The "See anything?" option will appear, click on it. Then choose "Key his bike?". (Kat +1)

Stay close to Autumn. She will ask you to light up the place. The "Any luck?" option will appear, click on it. Then choose "You like video games?". (Autumn +1).

Talk to Nora while she's not looking for the key. She's standing in the lit part of the playground. The "Hey, Nora." option will appear, click on it. Then choose: "I really missed out...sorry!" - (Nora +1) "How about we make our own movie?" - (Nora +1) "A boyfriend? Gross!" - (Nora +1) "You'd kiss me!?" - (Nora +1)

Wait until Nora starts looking for the key and stay close to her. She will ask you to light up the place. The "Find anything?" option will appear, click on it. Then choose "I go to the movies a lot...usually alone.". (Nora +1)

Film Nora, she will interact with you. Pick: “Um, yeah...!?” - (Nora +1)

Film Nora again, she will interact with you. Pick: “Um, my cat's in my movie...” - (Nora +1)

In 2022, choose: "I felt the same... Like a magnetic pull." - (Autumn 2022 +1)

Stay close to Autumn first, sometimes this dialogue won't appear if you talk to Kat first. At some point, Nora will ask about changing her hair color. If you choose: "You'd look great with purple hair, Nor." (Nora +1) (Autumn -1) "I'll help you, Autumn" - (Autumn +1)

Stay close to Kat and interact with the nearby sewer and interact with the sewer to start a conversation with her. Choose: "She's full of herself!" - (Kat +1) "Sorry you're related..." - (Kat +1) "Wanna crash at my place tonight?" - (Kat +1)

During the key search, your alarm will ring twice. The first choice doesn't affect anything. But for the second choice, choose "Sorry, this thing is so annoying!". I think it can be tricky to trigger this sometimes, but it didn't matter for my end affection run so if it doesn't show you can move along.

Stay close to Kat and Nora. At some point, they'll talk. If you choose: "What's your favorite subject, Kat?" - (Kat +1) "I like to sleep in too!" - (Nora +1)

Film Nora, she will interact with you. Pick: “You look cool on camera!” - (Nora +1)

Film Nora again, she'll say she's worried about Autumn. Pick: “Me too” - (Nora +1)

While searching with Autumn, some options will be available. Some you will have to wait a bit for.

"I wish I could've stopped him..." - (Autumn +1)

Approach the dogs' food and start the dialogue. Either option will give you "hearts." I can't say which is better in this case. But the "I love all critters!" option involves agreeing with Autumn that you also like dogs. (Autumn +1)

The next two dialogues can be awkward to trigger, make sure you got all previous dialogues first, activate the conversation about the dog, then the bottle dialogue. Eventually the other two idle dialogues will pop up while you film the area.

At some point, Autumn will say "Fuck...", reply with: "You OK, Autumn?" (Autumn +1)

Then later on, Autumn will complain about her ex-boyfriend. Choose: "That sucks...I hope he leaves you alone." (Autumn +1)

After picking up the brick, choose: "Would a hug help?" - (Autumn +1) "Probably a raccoon." - (Autumn +1) "I'm glad we got to talk more." - (Autumn +1)

AUTUMN LOCKHART, 1995

In 2022, choose: "It's OK, really..." - (Autumn 2022 +1)

In 1995, choose: "What makes you happy?" - (Autumn +1)

Here, two of the options will give you a heart, but one seems more romantic than the other. It's up to you. If you choose:

OPTION 1: "You look so good on camera!" - (Autumn +1) "You're so pretty!" - (Autumn +1)

OPTION 2: "You're doing great!" - (Autumn +1) "No, this is serious" - (Autumn +1)

Wait for a third option to appear and choose it: "Who's this friend?" - (Autumn +1)

Choose: ”How did you meet Nora?” then "Is she like a sister to you?" - (Autumn +1)

Choose: "What's your wildest dream?" - (Autumn +1)

REUNION

When the bartender asks about the drink, choose "She'd like a rum and coke." This option will open another option further ahead.

During Swann's video, for each of the girls, there will be two options that will give you a heart. I don't think it matters but I chose: "Nora's so pretty!" - (Nora +1) "I feel drawn to Autumn." - (Autumn +1) "Kat's really passionate." - (Kat +1) "I hope we stay friends."

Back in 2022 choose: "Thought I'd surprise you with a favorite..." (if you chose rum and coke previously). - (Autumn 2022 +1) "To our reunion!" - (Autumn 2022 +1) "I missed you" - (Autumn 2022 +1) "I'm sorry - I understand. It's a lot." - (Autumn 2022 +1) "I've been trying to remember that summer." - (Autumn 2022 +1) "My place is just across the lake." - (Autumn 2022 +1) "You have a son! That's wonderful." - (Autumn 2022 +1) "It's good to catch up." - (Autumn 2022 +1)

GARAGE BAND

When entering the garage choose: "This place is awesome!" - (Nora +1)

Wait for the girls to start talking about Corey. Choose: "Corey sucks!". - (Kat +1) (If Autumn missed throwing the brick at the key 3 times Kat will climb the rocket to collect it, if so a 3rd option appears that also gains affection with her.)

Examine the sour snack on the table next to Kat, and choose: "Cool." - (Kat +1)

When Nora and Autumn talk about their band name, choose: "The Spew? That's funny!" - (Nora +1)

Film the pizza on the sofa. Be careful, because if any dialog is taking place, the option will not appear. If you choose: "Pizza's good at all temperatures." - (Kat +1) If you choose: "Pizza should be hot." - (Nora +1)

Wait until Kat talks about going to a show (before you talk to Nora). Choose: "How about a road trip?" - (Kat +1)

Talk to Kat. There are two options with hearts: "I filmed a used condom at a campsite." and "I filmed two squirrels...mating." (if you filmed the squirrels earlier). (Kat +1)

Choose: "Cool! You saw a Wendigo?!" - (Kat +1) This option triggers the affection choice during the pact scene later in the game.

After talking to Nora and going to look for the pick. Inspect all tapes before picking up the pick. On one of the tapes will be the pot that Nora hides. Choose: "Nora's an outlaw!" - (Nora +1)

Take the pick "The Tharpe" for Nora.

During the conversation with Nora, choose: "Your make-up looks cool." - (Nora +1) "What if we went together?" - (Nora +1)

When Kat starts talking about writing poems, reply with: "Can we read it?" - (Kat +1)

When Kat asked about your favorite band, choose: "Music? I'm more into movies." - (Kat +1)

After knocking out the battery. Choose: "Sorry!" - (Autumn +1) "I want to see you skateboard, Autumn!" OR "If I had any balance, I'd try too!" - (Autumn +1) "Thanks, Autumn." - (Autumn +1)

LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION!

When you get close to the lake, there will be some interactions (before you enter the passage in the rocks). Sometimes you have to wait a while.

Stand near Nora and she'll start talking, so pick: "Can I try some weed?" - (Nora +1)

Film Autumn practicing cartwheels and choose: "Nice one, Autumn!" - (Autumn +1)

At some point, Nora will ask if she looks well. Choose: "You look nice, Nora!" - (Nora +1)

Then Kat will say that they should have brought snacks. Choose: "At least we had beer!" - (Nora +1)

In 2022, choose: "Wanna talk about your case?" - (Autumn 2022 +1)

After passing the rocks, approach the fence and examine the padlock. Kat will reenact the scene from Jurassic Park. If you choose: "Good one!" - (Kat +1) If you choose: "That scared me..." - (Autumn +1) (Kat -1)

For options such at these I prefer to go with the option that doesn't lower affection of the other girl.

Later on, when the girls stop to wait for you to choose recording locations, stay close to them. Nora will start complaining about the mosquitoes and you'll have 3 options. If you choose: "I know a fun fact about wasps..." - (Kat +1) If you choose: "I know a fun fact about spiders..." - (Autumn +1) If you choose: "I know a fun fact about mosquitoes..." - (Nora +1)

I picked Autumn again for this choice.

During the scene in which Autumn and Nora pretend to be playing the instruments. 5.1- While the girls are playing the air guitar: If you choose: "You look so cool, Nora." - (Nora +1) If you choose: "You're doing great, Autumn." - (Autumn +1) This option will show two other options: If you choose: "You're perfect, Autumn." - (Autumn +1) If you choose: "Try to amp it up, like Nora." - (Nora +1) (Autumn -1)

Again, it feels beneficial to focus on Autumn for the compliments, then choose "It'll look great layered with music." - (Nora +1)

After crossing the bridge, you must choose one of the girls to accompany. I don't think it matters too much here, but I went with Kat and it didn't affect the end result, as long as you grab most of the idle lines the characters are approximately BFF/Something more by the Truth or Dare night.

NORA: If you choose: "I'll come with you, Nora." - (Nora +1) 3 options will give you hearts. If you choose: "Did you like my motorcycle skit idea?" AND "You were so funny!" - (Nora +1) If you choose: "Your air guitar idea was so awesome!" AND "You stole the show!" - (Nora +1) If you choose: "Today went by so fast!" AND "You're safe with me!" - (Nora +1)

AUTUMN: If you choose: "I'll come with you, Autumn." - (Autumn +1) 2 options will give you hearts. If you choose: "You seemed nervous playing air guitar..." AND "I thought you looked cute… - (Autumn +1) If you choose: "I wonder how my cat is doing..." AND "My cat would love you!" - (Autumn +1)

KAT: If you choose: "I'll wait for you, Kat." - (Kat +1) 3 options will give you hearts. If you choose: "Was the scene with Nora weird?" AND "Awkward? Why?" - (Kat +1) If you choose: "That air guitar scene was fun, right?" - (Kat +1) If you choose: "Today went by so fast!" AND "I'd stay out late with you!" - (Kat +1)

At the overlook choose: "I've never had any friends like you."

In the next part you can gain affection with each, I chose Kat's option here. If you choose: "I bet a moth's life feels even faster..." - Kat replies If you choose: "I wish I could skip being a teenager..." - Autumn replies If you choose: "I feel old already..." - Nora replies

MOVIE NIGHT

Choose: "I'm so excited!"

Don't rewind the tape, just press play and let the girl's react to Swann's personal tape. Choose: "It's a personal thing."

When Nora asks who was the best actress pick Autumn again. If you choose: "Nora was cool." - (Nora +1) If you choose: "Kat was awesome." - (Kat +1) If you choose: "Autumn was amazing." - (Autumn +1)

DON'T BE AFRAID OF THE DARK

I went with the option that gained Kat's affection, but I'm not sure it matters given how they both were something more in my run either way: "We're lost...I'm sorry..." - (Kat +1) (Autumn -1) If you choose: "Don't worry! Just keep going." - (Autumn +1) (Kat -1)

CABIN IN THE WOODS

Before you enter the cabin, there are a few interactions. First of all, don't interact with anything. Just stand near the girls and wait for the following dialogues. If some of the dialogs don't appear, try to interact with the small window in the door, and with the large window next to the door.

When Autumn asks if they aren't tired... If you choose: "Who cares! This is awesome." - (Autumn -1) If you choose: "Don't worry, we'll go fast." - (Kat +1) (Autumn -1)

I tend to choose "Don't worry, we'll go fast." because Kat's next lines don't trigger if you ignore the prompts.

When Autumn talks about giving up, choose: "You're not the type to give up." - (Autumn +1)

When Kat talks about never having friends like that, choose: "We have so much in common." - (Kat +1)

Sometimes this doesn't trigger unless you walk to the right side of the cabin after the first two.

When Kat talks about how long someone lived there, choose: "Bet this cabin's older than our parents!" - (Kat +1)

When Kat talks about running away, choose: "Lets' run away together!" - (Kat +1)

When Nora says that the place might belong to a drug lord, choose: "Maybe we'll find some weed!" - (Nora +1)

Try filming Nora and pick: "I like filming you!" - (Nora +1)

Try filming Autumn and pick: "Sorry..." - (Autumn +1)

Interact with the hook before going to the blocked window, choose: “Looks like a murder weapon!” (Kat +1)

Move the window board with Kat and choose: "Let's break in!" - (Kat +1)

When interacting with the bridge, choose: "A bear?" - (Kat +1)

When interacting with the bathroom, choose: "Perfect for seven minutes in heaven..." - (Kat +1)

When interacting with the chimes, choose: "Play hooky!" - (Kat +1)

Choose the option where you and Kat work together.

After grabbing the hook, Kat starts complaining about Corey and her parents, choose: "Screw them!" - (Kat +1)

After entering the cabin.

When interacting with the swirls on the wall, choose: "Maybe you're right...it's weird." - (Nora +1)

When interacting with the trap. If you choose: "It's just a bear trap!" - (Nora +1) If you choose: "(Jokingly cry for help)" - (Nora -1) (Kat +1)

I jokingly cried for help in this case. Nora's affection goes up pretty easily later and it kept it more balanced.

PHONE A FRIEND

Depends on what girl you want to romance. I went with Kat (who was the highest before I lowered her affection later to balance it with Autumn's). If you choose Autumn's you can afford to focus on Kat during the sections I mentioned to choose Autumn's dialogue. If you choose Nora, ignore the focus on her during the truth or dare and abyss chapters.

If you call Autumn. Choose: "I was scared when the power went out." - (Autumn +1) "I'm proud of my video!" OR "Thanks to you!" - (Autumn +1) "I can't wait to see you!" - (Autumn +1)

When Autumn goes to tell you about the secret. If you choose: "A secret about Nora?" "Promise!" - (Autumn +1) "That's hilarious!" - (Autumn +1). If you choose: "A secret about Kat?" "Promise!" - (Autumn +1) "Her Mom sounds mean." - (Autumn +1)

"Yeah, let's walk together." - (Autumn +1) "Later, babe!" - (Autumn +1)

If you call Nora. "I was scared, weren't you?" - (Nora +1) "Thanks to you!" - (Nora +1) "I can't wait to see you!"

When Nora goes to tell you about the secret. "Autumn told you a secret?" "I won't tell..." - (Nora +1) "I bet you're right." - (Nora +1) "Yeah, let's walk together." - (Nora +1) "Not if I see you first!" - (Nora +1)

If you call Kat. "That power outage was crazy!" - (Kat +1) "I'm proud of my video!" - (Kat +1) "I can't wait to see you!" - (Kat +1) "Autumn told you a secret?" "Got it!" - (Kat +1) "I don't always want to talk." - (Kat +1) "Yeah, let's walk together." - (Kat +1) "Aim for his junk!" - (Kat +1)

Pick up each girl's favorite snacks: Go Toasties (Autumn), WholeCakes (Nora) and Sour!shapes (Kat).

In 2022, choose: "Yes! A little bit." - (Autumn 2022 +1)

After getting the stickers from the chest, close it and pet the cat. An option will appear. It relates to the girl you have the highest affection with at this point.

THIS OLD HOUSE

During the walk to the cabin. It depends on which girl you called, and how you described each one during the video Swann made. If Autumn, choose: "I felt really drawn to you..." - (Autumn +1) If Nora, choose: "I noticed that you're super pretty" - (Nora +1) If Kat, choose: "I really liked your intensity" - (Kat +1)

Inside the cabin before filming Kat will talk about Corey, reply with: "Don't worry - Corey won't find us." - (Kat +1)

During the cleaning, talk to Kat first. "Need a hand?" - (Kat +1) "I like her serious poems." - (Kat +1) "Meowzers!" - (Kat +1)

Go back to the cabin, but don't pick up the tweezers. Talk to Nora instead. "Can I bum a smoke?" - (Nora +1) "They must be shy around girls." - (Nora +1) (Move the moth) Hold still… - (Nora +1)

Talk to Autumn (don't pick up the tweezers). "Can I help tidy up?" - (Autumn +1) "I like being alone..." - (Autumn +1) If you collect the mushrooms, then choose: "Nature is so cool." If you collect the bones, then choose: "You wouldn't be alone."

Take the tweezers and talk to Kat again. Both options don't seem to affect anything so choose whatever.

In 2022, choose: "You're not crazy! Memories are fleeting..." - (Autumn 2022 +1)

When the girls ask Swann to choose the color: If you choose: "I liked Kat's blue." - (Kat +1) If you choose: "I went with Nora. Gold!" - (Nora +1) If you choose: "I loved your purple idea!" - (Autumn +1)

I went with Kat's, but again you can choose Nora to keep it more balanced, or Autumn if you focused more on Kat.

ECHOES OF SUMMER

Hug Autumn - (Autumn +1)

Choose whoever you want with the flower and drawing, I went with Kat with both and it didn't seem to affect anything.

When the girls are in the cabin. Nora comments that they have improved the place, reply with “Yeah, great work team!” (Nora +1). When Kat comments that the name of the place is perfect, reply with: “It's not for hunters anymore.” (Kat +1)

NORA MALAKIAN, 1995

When Nora talks about the bracelet, she comments that lapiz lazuli would look good on you. Don't think it makes a difference but I always choose that.

"Thank you...!" - (Nora +1) "So is Linda like a wicked stepmother?" - (Nora +1) "Your Mom must be pretty!" - (Nora +1)

As long as you choose a piercing it doesn't matter.

"Promise you won't leave me behind?" - (Nora +1)

BLOOM...

In 2022, choose: "You were just looking out for her." - (Autumn 2022 +1) "I can't really relate..." - (Autumn 2022 +1)

During the walk to the pact site, wait for the “(Laugh) Nora!” option to appear and choose it. (Nora +1)

Before you sit down, when the girls talk about the location, choose: "Maybe it's your wendigo, Kat!" (Kat +1)

I always choose the pact option, I don't think it affects anything.

In 2022, choose: "You look amazing." - (Nora 2022 +1) "I'd come with you, Nor." - (Nora 2022 +1)

When the group is singing pick: "See you in Hell!" - (Kat +1)

In 2022, choose: "Cheers! To us!" "Autumn never cared for fame." - (Autumn 2022 +1) "Wow, I looked you up too..." - (Nora 2022 +1) "She's lucky to have you..." - (Nora 2022 +1) "I knew you'd do something amazing." - (Nora 2022 +1) If you choose: "She's doing her boss's job for him..." - (Autumn 2022 +1) If you choose: "How does it feel being back, Nora?" - (Nora 2022 +1)

PACKING UP

You can find a drawing in Swann's secret spot under the bed that show's your highest girl. Mine showed Kat at this point.

"You made a deal with the devil!" - (Kat +1) "Chicken butt!" - (Kat +1) "We'll find a way to go together." - (Kat +1) "Traveling alone is empowering, in a way." - (Nora 2022 +1) "I'll send you some books, Autumn." - (Autumn 2022 +1)

DOUBLE DARE

When you're in the cabin, before lighting the fire pick up the “Sweet Sirens” porno mag. "Does fanfiction count?" - (Nora +1)

Talk to Autumn and choose: "What else should we do tonight?" - (Autumn +1)

Go up to the attic and sit down. Go to leave and then Kat talks with you. Choose: "Any updates on the poetry contest?" - (Kat +1) "I wish I could stay here, with you..." - (Kat +1)

During the “truth or dare” 2.1- If you choose: "Pick Kat!" - (Kat +1) "Gonna be Autumn!" - (Autumn +1) "Pick me!" - (Nora +1)

I went with Autumn.

"We'd basically be married!" - (Nora +1)

"You asked about my crush..." If you choose: "I have a crush on this writer..." - (Kat +1) "I'll tell you someday..." - (Kat +1)

if you choose: "I have a crush on this skater..." - (Autumn +1) "I'll tell you someday..." - (Autumn +1)

if you choose: "I have a crush on this musician..." - (Nora +1) "I'll tell you someday..." - (Nora +1)

I went with Autumn initially but Nora was BFF, so I went with Nora reloading save at this point which seemed to work for me.

When it's Swann's turn to pick someone. If you choose: "Autumn! Truth or dare?" - (Autumn +1) If you choose: "What's your most embarrassing secret?" AND "I think it's sweet." (Autumn +1) If you choose: "What's the meanest thing you've done?" AND "I would've added bird poop!" (Autumn +1)

If you choose: "Nora! Truth or dare?" - (Nora +1) If you choose: "Who do you hate?" If you choose: "Dean! Autumn's ex-boyfriend..." - (Nora +1) If you choose: "Yeah, Corey!" - (Kat +1) If you choose: "I would pay to watch that!" - (Nora +1) If you choose: "Hope you get your payback, Autumn." - (Autumn +1) If you choose: "Have you had sex?" "Baby, you have no idea." - (Nora +1) "I bet you're a great kisser!" - (Nora +1)

If you choose: "Kat! Truth or dare?" - (Kat +1) "Let us read your diary." "Sorry - it was a bad idea." - (Kat +1)

I chose truth when Kat asks because you can gain more affection. If you choose "truth"... If you choose: "Nora's probably the best kisser." - (Nora +1) If you choose: "Kat's probably the best kisser." - (Kat +1) If you choose: "Autumn's probably the best kisser." - (Autumn +1)

I went with Autumn again here.

In 2022, choose: "What do you remember, Nora?" - (Nora 2022 +1) "I really cared about you, Nora..." - (Nora 2022 +1)

If you want to romance Nora or Autumn, focus on one or the other more during the Truth or Dare section, then call out to them at the abyss and choose "It's probably a coincidence." to the abyss question. It lowers Kat's romance priority that the other girls will do your make-up instead. I reloaded my save around this part of my game and was able to get Crowned with Kat, Nora and Autumn by changing my bias on these final options and the other two still at 'Something more...' just make sure to give Nora and Autumn all the focus in Truth or Dare.

THE ABYSS

(Whisper) Kat… - (Kat +1)

When you hear the noise in the bushes, wait until all four options appear. If you choose: “Nora!?” - (Nora +1) If you choose: “Autumn!” - (Autumn +1)

I went with Nora but you can choose Autumn here if you want her to be more focused.

About the Abyss, if you choose: Our blood ritual...maybe it worked. - (Kat +1) (Autumn -1) It's probably a coincidence. - (Kat -1) (Autumn +1)

DOUBTS

Do you think our wishes came true? - (Autumn 2022 +1) Shall we play? - (Nora 2022 +1) "What's bothering you, Nora?" - (Nora 2022 +1) I'm writing a cryptid story… - (Nora 2022 +1)

KAT(HRYN) MIKAELSEN, 1995

Just look at me. - (Kat +1) You sneak out of your house a lot? - (Kat +1) You hate the ranch too, right? - (Kat +1) We should totally make a zine! - (Kat +1) I remember you mentioned Gertie… - (Kat +1) Whoa Did you take her home? - (Kat +1)

After the video ends, Kat comments on taking her father's car. Choose: Good idea! - (Kat +1)

RIOT GRRRLS

During the make-up scene, wait until the 5th option appears and choose it. If Kat: I like you… - (Kat +1) If Nora: Kiss… - (Nora +1) If Autumn: I like you. - (Autumn +1)

After connecting the cable, choose: We can do this. - (Kat +1)

After you connect the cable and before you open the power panel. Wait until Kat talks about stealing her father's car (neither option will give you a heart). However, after this conversation, wait a little longer. Kat will say that if there was food she could stay there for days. Get: "I'll move in with you!" - (Kat +1)

If you take the blame for Kat it seems to raise affection, saying it was Kat's idea lowers it. So if you had make up scene with Kat the second option could lower her from 'crown' romance. Just to specify.
