I love sub!Sam content, I do, but I also love the idea that Sam is actually an amazing dom. He's gentle, but he has all the control—something his real life usually lacks—he's commanding but not mean, he can see all the signs of his sub being on the edge of what's comfortable.
Similarly, Dean wants to let someone else be in charge, for someone to take the reigns and tell him what to do, to stop having to be the only leader. And once Sam finally leads him into the bedroom and shows him that he can fully trust himself to Sam's care? He practically falls into subspace. Peaceful, happy, cared for.

I just thought of some very good dialogue between Crosshair and Echo and now I am tempted to write a fic of them in the very beginning after Echo first joins where Echo is just so stubbornly persistent and Crosshair is Crosshair-ing in the most 'walls up, let no one in' kind of way and it doesn't even need to have a plot it just needs to exist
#the bad batch#tbb echo#tbb crosshair#the bad batch fanfiction#imagine this okay this is what I'm thinking#Crosshair is in a mood has been for days#and the rest of the batch is like leave him be he will get over it#and Echo is like... no something doesn't seem alright#and he is trying to get through to him#because this is Cross this is the man who wanted him to join clone force 99 from like minute 1 after they met#he has seemed distant in the way that change is hard for Cross (as it is for all the batch)#but this distance is... worse...#and one night Crosshair is sitting on the roof of the ship alone and sulking and Echo against other's advice follows him up there#and they talk and Crosshair is aloof bc talking about stuff is not how the batch does things#and Echo is so... persistent#he isn't put off by the cold shoulder even if it is annoying#and they don't get to the root of what is going on with Cross but it's enough that the ice melts a little#Cross learns that Echo is a safe place (as they all are) and Echo learns that Cross is petrified of being vulnerable#they find they may have more in common than anticipated#and there is safety and comfort in each other#even when one of them may be resistant to it when they're going through it#it is the bones of an idea that hasn't truly taken shape yet#but oh it is up there#anyway apologies for my rambling it will happen again#<3#space chatter

I'm sorry to send a message of sorts through your Ask tab, but I want to say that I really love your piece, " Seclusion ". First, I really love how the room and objects around Vasco and Machete look. The headrest's texturing is extremely cool. It looks beautiful. It makes sense with the era these two lived in, of course, but the design of the headrest feels much older in comparison to modern times now, and I think that's really cool, personally. It's a bit difficult to describe, but the pillows and bedding both look really soft. It feels protective, almost. Finding comfort in isolated sheets, but your characters are together. The comfort is not only furthered, I imagine, but I could see them feeling safe with and because of each other, too. They're resting in silent, cool darkness, the breathing of the other bringing them into a world of just their own, to breathe with just one another, I feel. The way you depict them here, they both look safe, so to speak? They feel so sealed away from the outside, and comfortable. Resting against one another, and the fact that they dress differently to bed, I think is really lovely. This piece is really sweet. Thank you for creating all that you do. It truthfully means a lot to see, and learn of.
.
#I'm glad you liked it!#safe comfortable and isolated from the world was the feel I was trying to capture#I've mentioned this before but I'm not normal about the intimacy and vulnerability of sleeping next to another person#beds are such private and personal spaces and being invited to share one is such an understated display of trust#this is my nest let's fall unconscious together#answered#mmaniazone#someone once told me I draw the softest beds and that's genuinely one of the compliments that float around in my head at all times#like a stray jellyfish

im not autistic but i believe in their beliefs (because i share like 80 % of symptoms typical for autistic women with yall)
#overstimulation? check#bursts of anger? check#overwhelmed in social situations and needing a lot of downtime in my safe space? having comfort people? check#seeming ‚weird‘ to other people? check#always feeling like i dont fit in with the girls? check#overly excited over small things? check#sensory issues? check#never knowing when its my turn to talk in conversation? check#people reacting weirdly when i interject in conversations? check#monologueing about my special interests? check#special talent? semi check because i dont think im that good at drawing but i used to get in trouble in school for drawing too much#often say inappropriate/inappropriately frank and honest things unintentionally? check#extremely analytical thinking especially regarding social relationships but unable to make me less weird? check#having been the odd one in my family and school and at work all my life? check#having specific rules how everything has to be done? needing rituals and structure and a controlled environment? check#social anxiety as a result? CHECK#the list goes on…#its the adhd/bpd mix i think#personal

shut UPPPPPPPPPP 😭 as always, this post was not an invitation for all that
#monthly PSA that this is not a Batman-hate safe space..#I respect your right to hold your own beliefs of course hate that old man all you want☝️😔 but I dont wanna see it...#in a way it feels comforting to return to complaining about people in my tags hating Batman. ahh a return to form#also I get that some of these are probably just poking light fun at the character but when its so many all together it annoys me sdhsdh

its really fucking hard to explain to cis women why "fems only" kind of events and spaces are only safe spaces for them. yes even the ones that pretend to be trans-inclusive. like its just incredibly obvious when i bring up my gripes with them on account of being a trans person who cares about the strife of my fellow trans people that they only care about their own momentary comfort and it's really exhausting and sad
#i dont think purposefully seperating the genders in the name of 'safe spaces' is productive to begin with#like how are we supposed to all treat each other normal when sometimes we just lock the door and say 'you cant come in'#but idk like. cis women are really uncomfortable with confronting their biases about who and what a woman is#because a lot of them just assume they're really progressive and cool on account of being marginalized by cis men#and then dont really educate themselves or examine their personal comfort zone beyond that#its annoying#AND THEN I'M THE ASSHOLE FOR SAYING FLINTA IS A STUPID FUCKING WORD#the life and times of brows

Oh god what now?
I watched this HORRIBLE video (all the tws, plus it's the daily mail sorry I didn't even realize that was the op until just now so actually fuck it I'm not linking; it's details of the time leading up to Liam's death and a person being gross and insensitive about it, will describe below, skip the rest if you don't want to be as upset as I now am)... ...showing an American who was also a guest at the hotel saying that Liam was in the lobby of the hotel multiple times in the time leading up to his death causing a scene and they just kept escorting him back up to his room. They show pictures the guest took of him while all this was happening, including one from something that happened according to this man just before he died, which is that he was in the lobby looking at his laptop and passed out and was convulsing (he took a fucking picture of him passed out) and they woke him up and took him upstairs and put him in the room alone again; that's when they called the police but 5 minutes later he was dead.
#I am also hit hard by zayn's cancellation#obviously its for the best and I want very much for him to take care and for this to go so well for him and feel safe and comfortable#but I was going to see him wed#I was really excited#it was something to look forward to in a dark time#plus I was thinking about Liam and about being in that space with a couple thousand other people mostly also feeling sad#again I AM GLAD FOR ZAYN and it's clearly the right call#but I can't help feeling pretty fucking sad about it#and like... well I felt sure the first show of tour would happen at least plus it was the FIRST SHOW#a whole leg more than a month after the first? we'll see I guess#ugh sorry this is all so trivial in face of everything but yk. it's all just a lot piled up#cw Liam details

#probably my last sunny walk at home :(#keeeeellll meeeee#i think one of the things i hate about going back to uni is not being able to experience autumn and winter at home like i used to#it’s weird because i’ve always loved them and considered them my favourite seasons.#but last year (and now this year) i’m realizing that oh! i think it’s because i got to come home after a long day and be in a safe familiar#space. and at uni everything is still a bit unfamiliar and not very comforting so the long cold days get so much harder#but i will surviveeeeeee#counting on gilmore girls to get me through it!! and also love is blind s7. i LOVE having things to look forward to every week it makes tim#fly by so fast. last yr every friday night was reserved for me and i ate frozen pizza or takeout and/or my favourite snacks and#watch my comfort films :( i cooked a lot those nights too 2 save money but yeah. it was rlly nice to have that comfy safe time to myself#i think it rlly got me thru uni.#ik it’s gonna be so hard to get back into a routine but im trying to tell myself that i need to like. focus on the basics first. adulting#can be so hard & i wanna do everything at once! i wanna b perfect in all areas. always do my hobbies. etc etc but i#i couldnt even get out of bed to make myself meals sometimes 💔 so i need to like remember if i don’t journal or read a whole book in a day#not the end of the world. and most importantly i need to be EATING and staying active and SLEEPING FIRST and foremost cause then hopefully#i won’t feel like a zombie.#okay anyways.#feeling sad feeling tired feeling unmotivated but also feeling a teensy bit excited for finally BEING ALONE!!!!#i have my cardiologist appt tmrw so maybe that’s why i feel so yuck also. just thinking abt it makes me wanna throw up#i hope everything goes well#anyways bye bye#♡ dear diary…

“safe in his phantom embrace”
…yeah ahaha i’m fine :,)
#they are each others safe space in every way#and this episode does such a beautiful job illustrating that it makes me emotional#buffy gives him both metaphorical and physical safety#accepting all parts of him and giving him an internal sense of safety to be fully comfortable with her#and then by saving him as well. we get to see that beautiful where he feels completely safe and comfortable the second he’s in her arms#angel gives buffy a sense of safety to open up about her feelings during career week and how she worries about her future#and in this moment#where she is so overwhelmed by the danger she is in#she doesn’t even feel safe in her own home#she feels safe wherever he is#otp: all i see is you#bangel#buffy x angel

So idk if I can really articulate the way I'm feeling rn to translate it perfectly, but I want you guys to know how much I truly appreciate everyone who's followed me over the years, who has interacted with me in any way no matter how small, and anyone who has shown up recently. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. It's probably cheesy to say but everyone here has made my life so much brighter and I feel so unbelievably blessed to have been invited into your lives in some way, even if it's just as someone who sometimes shows up on your dash.
I decided to scroll through my tag on here and the way people have supported me over the years though everything really, deeply touched my heart this evening. The people who have drawn fanart for me, the people who have commissioned me, the people who have tagged me in things (I cringe every time bc I feel soooo bad for not seeing them until I look in my tag once in a blue moon, but know I appreciate you trying to include me), the people who tag me when asked who their art inspirations or favorite blogs are (!!!!!!!!!??????), the people who post their art saying that my art inspired them in some way, people who express their excitement when they realize I've followed them (this will never stop being wild to me, what an incredible thing!!!! I'm just me!) everyone. It's absolutely mind boggling to me and I can't stress enough how much it means.
I've had such an incredible time on this site so far and met some of my closest friends here and just.. wow. Thank you so much to all of you, from the very bottom of my heart. I cannot thank you enough for all of your support!! Every little bit of interaction is a blessing to me and I've run out of ways to express that so I'll wrap this up here but yeah!! I hope you all have a lovely evening or whatever time of day it is in your time zone. Know that you've impacted me in a way I can't express and try to give yourselves a little grace, you'll never know how much you've improved the lives of the people around you by just spending a little time in their space ♥
#i wanted to tag a bunch of my friends bc i saw a lot of people i don't interact with much anymore bc of my reclusiveness in recent years#but i was terrified of accidentally leaving people out so if you're wondering if i'm thinking about you then you're exactly who i mean#love love love love love I'm so incredibly fortunate and i can't forget that!!!!#the fact that i've been on here since 2014 and have only received one mean ask that i can think of is insane#i know i've been a bit of a downer lately but overall my hope is that i've created a positive space where people can be happy and feel safe#in some way in any way#and i hope i feel like someone people can talk to (or at.. i know im bad at replying but i do like to read sjkdlfsd)#i've been told that i may come off as intimidating but i truly don't want to be i want people to feel comfortable interacting ^^#ANYWAY gotta go to bed this is embarrassing thanks for listening byeee#dl#not art#i forgot to mention this but also people who use my art for their pfps???????? SPEECHLESS#all of the art in the world and you chose mine it makes my heart so full#also just realized i completely forgot to respond to emails today#if you see this and you're waiting on one I'll reply tomorrow but know I've gotten it!

I should be asleep but I'm thinking about Sylus' "you can talk"...
#whyyyy are they so fucking cute smashes him#personal posting#this mfer is so patient about MC slowly coming to terms with her greed and love for him#across the cards and being very much not pushy 'we dont need words' etc but he knows here MC is trying to do something#and wants to voice it. so he's gently encouraging her. anywaY#the last few cards have veen so good im also obsessed with the riding one we got. more motorcycle stuff#also they should give an MC motorcycle riding outfit like the one they show in the card art#lads sylus#MC being very vocal about wanting to be his safe space and accepting all of him and his vulnerability#and then Sylus happy to be vulnerable and soft and----#im also proud of MC we've come so far from the whole silly reluctant posturing claiming stuff from her which was also cute.#i liked how indulgent he is with what she needs until she gets comfortable. not getting frustrated or misunderstanding too much etc#the stupid little part where he has MC do something cute for a surveillance camera just so he can find it later#like they are 50% fierce and 50% cute together and separately etc#Sylus saying that going fast is fun but that he also likes to go slow on their drives because then he can keep MC close longer like. augh.

Sometimes it feels soooo weird not being depressed anymore
#i was sad from some memories earlier this week and my urge was just to go take a sulk in my depression hole#because it was comfortable in there!#but its not there anymore. it got filled in. and part of me was sad because it felt safe in there#and the other part of me remembered how much time and effort it took to fill in#so it felt like i was just looking at the space where it used to be. like sure i could dig a little#make it comfortable. do whatever. maybe get some sleep in.#but it never stayed in one place so i would probably end up tripping because of it#i love digging literal holes. it actually helped me out of my depression because the more you dug the bigger the hole got so i could see#that i was making a physical difference#and then i could put plants and shit in there#i came up with literally a million different metaphors for what i was going through in therapy. it felt like if i worded it#just right this time then i would understand it. and if i understood it i could fix it.#it was like math put into a word problem#i think the one that was most complete for me was a polluted river that would clog and poison#that even if you cleared up one clog pieces would break up and stop up some new area#and in a way that felt kind of hopeless. in another way you now had so much further you were able to go until you got clogged#and each time you broke it up and took pieces out#the less there would be at the next one#and that really did help the logical side of me. helped me deal with the work i needed to keep doing.#but the emotional side always came back to the hole#because the thing about a really deep hole is that you only get light when the sun is perfectly over you#if at all#and noon is so very little of the day#but the shallower that hole gets#the more time you have in the light#and one day you get a full minute to see by#and another day you get a whole hour#and these are insane moments. for me realizing i was getting a whole hour of sun was one of the best days of my life#so yeah. sometimes i miss the dark and the cool dirt. but then i remember just how good being in that sun was for the first time#just being able to relax in it. not needing to take my quick breath for another 24 hours under. not having to rush to fill in the hole.

What are peopls thoughts on this. Commenter is transfem.
#The commenter is transfem.#Like. I think there's a commonality among women who identify as bisexual and are in a straight passing relationship#And this isn't all bi women#But too often these women just. Do not have the ability to deal with being treated as a queer person#Like they need the ability to pass as straight in order to be comfortable#And like. Is that necessarily bad. I'm not going to come on here and say you have to willfully expose yourself to homophobia#But like. Let's just not play then. Don't come into gay/lesbian spaces and talk about our issues like you experience them.#AND I KNOW! I know this isn't all bi women. But you can't deny that there are a good amount of bi women that just cannot deal with the#Realities of what it means to be visibly not straight#All the ''i can't talk to women they scare me'' ''i can talk to all men and 1 woman''#Like it's fine it's innocuous it's nothing but at the same time. Just be honest. Be honest with yourself and others that what you want from#The world and the attraction you experience are not always the same.#It is FINE to want a cishet relationship and be straight passing. You are allowed to choose safe options.#But like. Stop Fucking Speaking Over Us then.#Bisexual#Lesbian

The fact that there was once a time where I was like, "being a theatre teacher is not for me. Alas, I must find a new path posthaste".
When I directed my first play in literally 5th grade and then got to middle school and was like "I think I want to do this for the rest of my life" is kind of hilarious, I'm not gonna lie
Like the kids ask me about my life path or whatever, and I'm like yeah this will be my 10th show I've directed, and I knew in middle school I wanted to do this forever. And then I have to be like - but worry not! For there was a time in my life that I was incredibly stupid and thought this was, in fact, not my correct path 🤦🏼
#like my students do not even want to be in my class#and everyday I wake up so happy because I love my job and it's the best job ever 😁#I'm gonna make them like my class if it kills me#honestly the challenge is part of the fun I'm not gonna lie#rubs hands together evilly#sometimes I think about teaching in some suburb where the kids are all super passionate about theatre and I'm like. where's the fun in that#the fun is when they try it for the first time and catch the bug#the fun is when they're all 😠 and then you make them play the game and they're laughing and having fun and it's like aha! gotcha!#and guess what? you also haven't looked at your phone in 20 mins!#mwuahahauhaha#and watching the students challenge themselves to get out of their comfort zone? priceless#watching a kid who has done nothing all year read aloud from the play we're reading?? priceless#the kid who ices me out at every opportunity finally finally complete a hard assignment in class?? boy I die!!#just to see them go from cold reading to growing as performers is so ✨✨#ugh sorry I just literally have the best job ever#recruiting a talented kid from class only to have him be TERRIFIED the whole process - he is ??himself at every turn& the audience LOVES him#I swear there is nothing better man#and even if ALL I do is give these kids a third space to goof around in - a place where they feel safe - that's enough#I am so honored to give them that space
