I want to open requests again but also, I have like zero confidence to write anything at the moment.
I dunno i keep hearing people talk about how they hate when writers do this or hate that and this headcanon is the worst, everybody dunking on something, and I keep seeing it in my stuff. I just don't have much confidence in making anything that people aren't gonna find cringe and poorly made and miserable to read. Like why would I take all of your ideas when someone else can/will just do them a million times better then I ever could without all the stuff that makes my writing annoying to read.
I'm not looking for like sympathy or anything, I just wanted to give a warning if you don't really see much writing from me for a bit.

Oh no
TW - racism and Slavery, power dynamics
really meh. IDK why they went mecha with the cherubs. The energy of the fight and how much it lasted was really lacking. I'm annoyed still by the "GUYS STOLAS IS SO SAAAAAD" bullshit. Why is the thumbnail so bad? I thought it was fake.
There is not an understanding of classism or power dynamics or anything.
Blitz was right, Stolas is a privileged asshole that constantly reduced their relationship into something sexual and belittled blitz, in remarks of him as a lower / IMP. Stolas did a scenario where Blitz job depended on them having sex. The series is creating a scenario where Blitz needs to love Stolas back because Stolas is so UWU sad baby that 'loves' him.
The main reason i hated the re-write of Stolas and blitz meeting-is because is exactly this: (something I've been aware of for a while.)
Tumblr media
This exact situation of white slave owners making the kids of their slaves play with their white kids (I originally got introduced to this idea for a long form criticism of the Princess and the frog Story from Disney). IDK why would you make a scenario where there is inequality to the imps and how they suffer racism- if you just want Stolas to be in the right and Blitz in the wrong
I do not care if Stolas is sad and his life (even tho better because he is rich and has a literal book that gives him powers, vs being an IMP that could die, suffer from property and any possible scenario they are exposed to- or be a slave servant to the richer people because they were born imps.) he doesn't get to freed from all his wrong doings. No matter how depressed he is, his power is still higher and over Blitz. And creating a terrible scenario for blitz or any Imp for that matter.
Tumblr media
They are really going for the plot line of But Stolas is a good rich privileged person.
Also, a scenario where the discriminated x privileged... There is the direct connection to the "what about everyone else".
If a non discriminated against person with big power is not bigoted to the person, the one they fell in love with. Does only that one discriminated person get saved from their social situation? Does everybody else still suffers because they don't happen to be the one. But what if the privileged person still discriminates against those people, but not their "special one".
Also... if you get a scenario as the discriminated one where you get to be saved from your situation, that's fucked. This person loves you if you say yes to them then you don't have to deal with being poor and as oppressed by the system but only you! Your entire group of people lives in the same conditions as you... If you say no, then you'll go back to being oppressed. This person on power hold power over you still. How much can you wight in with your own problems and boundaries, if the other one can throw you away into your old way of living. Can you leave the relationship? If you leave, you can get all the things you did with the privileged person cause maybe they don't hate you for being from a certain minority group, but the system over all hasn't changed. Can your group of people only get better life conditions by loving the pre-existing group in power? Those that person even like you, or do they like the power they hold onto you? Or maybe they like your race for your race more than you as a person.
Just a thing in the writing of this kind of story.
Also, character can have flaws, but they need to be recognized as flaws in writing.
Stolas are constantly victimizing himself (just like any sad privileged asshole would). He can't take the fact that if blitz is angry at him is for a reason, because he doesn't see his treatment of his as a bad thing. Cause in Stoals pov he enjoyed having power over blitz and calling him an IMP and forcing his romanticized view of the situation on to him- But Blitz was pulling a fast one to get money, This rich guy who he got gifted to as a slave playmate now is holding his job over his head in exchanged for sex, the same guy constantly does sexual advances towards him even when he explicitly says he doesn't want that (remember all of Loo loo land episode?), he gets call plenty of imp based "petnames" (ā€œMy impish little play-thingā€) from a guy that can literary buy imps as slaves any day, suddenly he has to reciprocate his romantic feelings because he is sad, and apparently he wanted something more even thought he made it entirely empty and sexual all this time.
Stolas fake apologized, got fairly screamed at and victimized himself.
And apparently calling him out is bad for Blitz to do? Victim blaming.
I think by the last episode, they are going to kick Stolas out of the castle, technically putting him in a similar social position to imps with nowhere to go. Even if it doesn't magically work that way. -and Stolas is going to be "more sad and more in the right, so Blitz has no ground to complain now, right!?" ...
The way all of this episode and series is written tries so hard to delete any negative feeling against systemic problems, classism related issues, etc. if it's against a character the series wants you to like. If it's Stolas then he did nothing wrong, the power dynamic doesn't exist... if it is Mammon then he is a terrible person holding his power over others' capitalism sucks... oh but not Stolas tho! If it is Ozzi there is no power dynamic over a disabled imp, constant searching for appreciation from someone he fells is above him (like he tried to get with Mammon, because Ozzie is a good highly privileged person. No bad things to look out for! Fuck capitalism, but I'm one of the good rich people, no criticism is possible!
All that bad stuff could that people in my position of power is awful! But I would, could never do that! Because I'm a good one! Hmm
If you don't see the problem here, you may be a problem or may be justifying something terrible.
Also, funny enough about the short of Millie and Sally... I can't believe you only get content of a female character AND MILLIE IN SPECIFIC in extra side content that Viv didn't even care enough to write herself... and also the short gave me nothing new about her, I got more for Sally (and finally something normal! More than a line and she gets to have a character).
I hope there is a better episode for her.

ā€” melt.
Tumblr media
summary: After seeing how heartbroken the families of the people who work for the department get when they die, you decided to not get involved with anyone. You didn't expect, however, to have that ice wall melted away by someone ā€” Jay Halstead ā€” in your own unit. And when Jay got hurt in one of the cases, you couldn't help but be mad at him, and it didn't take long for him to figure out the why.
tags: fluff, personal favorite, kind of grumpy x sunshine trope, Jay Halstead is a smug bastard, gn!reader.
characters: Jay Halstead.
warnings: mention of near-death experience, swearing.
a/n: wrote this after episode 7 of the Percy Jackson series (hence the Asphodels mention) at 2AM. I was actually going to request that but I ended up wanting to write it myself! hope u like it :)
word count: 1,248.
requested?: no.
Tumblr media
Grumpy, reserved, quiet. All words used to describe you. And they weren't really that mistaken.
There was a thick ice wall between you and the rest of the world. A wall that didn't allow you to build any deeper relationship with anyone. One that burned people with its overwhelming coldness.
A wall that you build it yourself a little over a month after entering the Chicago's Intelligence Unit. Specifically after you watched how destroyed a family felt after losing a relative who worked for the department.
You felt selfish for even thinking of getting emotionally involved with someone. What if something happened to you? To them? You would never forgive yourself. You'd be rooted in the Asphodels Meadows ā€” trapped with your own regret for all eternity ā€” if anything ever happened because of you.
Everything was going well with it. You weren't that happy, but you were happier than you would be if you carried all the guilt of putting a loved one in danger.
But you never could prepare yourself to the warmth of Jay Halstead.
How cheeky of you to fall in love with a sweet smile. But it was true. You felt pathetically helpless any time he laughed at your jokes and showed you his teeth.
It was bittersweet. His laugh sounded like heaven and it made your life a living hell. How could you not be selfish? How could you think of being a good person when he was so close to you?
You tried to rationalized it. Tried to think that he wasn't that good. That perfect. That it was just your love-starved brain romanticizing him to tempt you.
Which lead you to the mistake of getting to know him.
Everything got worse.
The attempt of hating his flaws turned out to realizing that his loyalty was too much for his own good. He would mindlessly die for you, without a second thought or regret. How intoxicating.
He was like a honey-flavored poison. The sweetest way to lose yourself forever.
And unfortunately, you tasted him. Not only that, but it was never enough. You couldn't get enough of him. He became everything.
So when he almost died during one of the cases because he risked himself a little too much to get information, you were mad.
"Will you tell me why you're not talking to me?" He asked you, leaning over your desk and tilting his head, letting out a sigh. "Come on, I could've died and you won't even talk to me?"
"It's exactly because of that." You murmured, annoyed, not looking at him.
"What? I didn't hear you." Jay said, getting closer.
"It's because of that!" You said, now louder. You two were alone in the office. You were finishing up some papers while Jay ā€” who couldn't for the life of him be separated from you for more than a couple hours ā€” made you company.
"You're not talking to me because I risked myself?" Jay asked, confused, watching as you got up from the chair and went to the break room.
"I'm not talking to you because you're irresponsible!" You answered, finally looking at him in the eyes. Your bodies facing one another.
"I did it for the case! We needed the info!" Jay argued and you groaned, massaging your temples.
"Oh, my God, you really don't understand, do you?" You brushed your hands against your face, trying to calm yourself down.
"No, I don't. You do things like that all the time, and usually is worse. But when I do it, I'm irresponsible?" He asked, frowning.
He looked at you, trying to understand what was wrong. You weren't like this. You didn't fight with people unless their actions harm the case. So what was happening?
It was when the realization hit.
You were worried.
"Detective," He called, flashing you that damned smile that you so desired to kiss. "are you mad because I could've died?"
"Wha- What? No!" You mumbled, taking a step back as he approached you.
"Oh, yeah?" He mumbles, smiling smugly at you. "Are you sure of that?" He asks, getting closer and closer.
"Y-Yes, I am! If you died, it would've been a loss for the team and all the time and money that they invested on you would go to waste and-" You gulped, feeling the cold wall against your back and watching as he trapped you, putting his arms on each side of your face. "What are you doing?"
"Nothing."
"Why are you looking at me like that?" You said, nervously pushing his chest, but not really wanting him to leave.
"Like what?"
"Like that! Staring at my lips! Stop it!"
"Or what?" He asked, smugly.
Your breath got stuck in your throat, and as the seconds went by, he got closer. His forehead was soon touching yours, and his smile only grew bigger.
"Looks just like a dream I had." He said, putting his hand on your chin. "It ended very well. "
You didn't answer right away, trying to process your thoughts. You wanted to give a good answer, something that would make him go away ā€” even though you didn't really want that ā€”, but a wave of curiosity hit you with the revelation that he dreamt of you.
"How so?" Your voice was almost inaudible.
"I got to do more than just kiss you." He whispered, as if telling a secret. "But I think that just being able to kiss you would already make me the luckiest man on earth."
Your gaze fell to his lips, and just the thought of kissing them got you nervous. Your heartbeat rapidly beating against your chest, and for a moment he thought that he could feel it too.
But it was actually his own.
"Please," He asked. It could be mistaken for a beg, but the smug look on his face said otherwise. "detective."
"I thoughtā€¦" You were breathless. Your nervousness didn't let you speak properly, but still, for some reason, you knew exactly what to say.
"Say it."
"I thought you were a man of action," You breathed out. "detective."
He smiled.
His hands ā€” painfully ā€” slowly went to the nape of your neck, holding it as he pressed his lips against yours, devouring it slowly, torturing you with it.
The kiss was the epitome of breathtaking. His lips moved slow and tenderly against yours, savouring you like it was his last meal.
He could live the rest of his life devoting himself to kissing you. How could it taste so sweet?
Jay wasn't much of a religious man, and he was even farther of believing in Greek gods. But as he felt your body against his and your sweet kiss on his lips, he was sure that you must be Aphrodite's work.
Masterpiece, actually.
His hands traveled around your body, feeling your curves, trying to memorize it so he didn't feel so sad when they weren't against his fingertips ā€” even though that he knew it would be his life's biggest torment.
And he got a taste of it when he had to part himself from your lips.
"What were you saying, baby?" He asked, with a smug smile on his face.
"Fuck you, Jay Halstead." You said before kissing him again, feeling his smile melt against your mouth as your fingers intertwined his hair.
"You wish." He mumbled against your lips, lifting you up by your thighs and wrapping them around his waist.
Jay warmth was definitely more than enough to melt the ice wall away.

"We don't have to wait for anyone to follow Burn all the yesterdays, give us our tomorrow Love is like a flame in our desire We'll have to sacrifice everything we lost inĀ the fire." ~Everything We Lost in the Fire, Blue October
Wrapped up in Willā€™s arms, you try to focus on Franciscoā€™s kisses, not the fact Willā€™s hands were on your breast, Benā€™s mouth was on your cunt, or Santiā€™s body was incassing Francisco.
It had been nearly 3 weeks since Reyā€™s body was burned, and you were expected to pretend like nothing was happening. Pretend that after your baby is born, Santi wonā€™t have you and Iris killed. Well, definitely Iris. Will had a way of convincing Santiago to follow his lead, and Will still seemed to love youā€¦ but Iris was certainly dead. It was probably Francisco and Will who convinced Santi not to kill her after the fire incident, that more stress would surely trigger something in your pregnancyā€¦ That was all Santiago cared about. Not you, definitely not Iris. Just the saviorā€¦
You wonder if he believes in the savior. You wonder if you even believe in the saviorā€¦ You didnā€™t know what you believed, honestly.
Franciscoā€™s tongue explored your mouth for the 100th time, and you tried to find solace in him but it was growing harder and harder as time went on. You felt alone, you felt like Iris was the only one who actually understood what you were going through. Sometimes, when your husbands were asleep, youā€™d sneak out to the servants quarters. Youā€™d try not to think about Rey or Jonahā€™s rooms as you passed them, softly knocking on Irisā€™s door. Sheā€™d tell you to come in, and youā€™d find her in bed, usually crying.
Ā Carefully, you crawl intoĀ  bed with her, and just lay there. Sometimes you cry with her. Sometimes she holds you. Rarely, you talk. Iris would answer questions you had, truth of the attempted revolt as she knew it, Jonahā€™s affair with Delilah, Beatriz's murder, Jonah dancing at your fathers death. You knew you should hate Jonah, but something inside you continued that attachment. It wasnā€™t right, heā€™d tried to rape you, but it was so out of character for himā€¦ your brain struggled to make sense of these two versions of Jonah.
After a few hours, you get up and go back to bed with Will or Francisco. You werenā€™t allowed to be alone with Iris during the day anymore, so you spent most of your time with one of your husbands, and occasionally a guard. None of them were like Rey. Theyā€™d all seen him burned, his body beaten and slaughtered. No one wanted to be your friend.
You try to pretend itā€™s Franciscoā€™s hands on you, you try to block out everything but him, but of course you arenā€™t that lucky.
Santiago grabs Franciscoā€™s hair, yanking his mouth away from you and to his own lips, kissing him deeply and making Francisco melt in little moans. You canā€™t help the pang of jealousy that flares up around you. Benny notices too, pulling his lips away from between your legs and planting a sloppy kiss on Franciscoā€™s asscheek, kissing his way to your lover's crack. Soon, you are all but forgotten as Santiago and Ben fight for Franiscoā€™s pleasure.
Benā€™s tongue is buried in Franciscoā€™s ass, prodding deep inside the tight hole youā€™d fucked as well, making Francisco whine and buck as Santiago jerked him off, bringing him to orgasm. Franciscoā€™s seed spilled out onto the sheets, white and sticky rope after rope as Francisco whimpered and moaned.Ā 
Willā€™s body was firm against you, holding you close with one hand touching your body, the other fingering you and picking you up where Ben left you forgotten.Ā 
You watch as Ben goes straight from ass to mouth, kissing Francisco hard and pulling him by his chubby cheeks away from Santiago. A battle for Franciscoā€™s affection insured, the two men kissing Francisco every which way as Will brought you to orgasm with his fingers reaching around your large stomach.
ā€œLook at our husbands, Madonna.ā€ He murmurs softly in your ear, so soft you canā€™t help fall into him just a little. ā€œLook how beautiful they are.ā€
And they were. Objectively, they were all beautiful, sculpted with perfect bodies and handsome features and so utterly obsessed with each other, the clawing at each others skin and biting of their lips didnā€™t matter. You watch as Santiago draws blood from Benā€™s shoulder, a sharp reminder of his position without going too far to invoke Willā€™s wrath. Francisco clawing his nails down Santiagoā€™s back. Ben edging Santiagoā€™s cock but stopping him as the base, right before climax. You see the matching cuts on Francisco and Santiagoā€™s arms.
They were beautiful. But you couldnā€™t see their beauty.
You saw Will, who killed Jonah. Jonah, who yes did something terrible to you but was still a father to you. Will, who controlled your every move, who made allowances for Santiagoā€™s behavior again and again and again, who knew what Ben did to Iris but did nothing.
You saw Ben, a rapist who impregnated Iris, who killed Rey.
You saw Santiago, a psychopath who raped and burned you while pregnant, who was responsible for the distruction of so many lives here.
And Francisco, who let it all happen.
*
You fell asleep that night in Francisco's arms, the other retiring to their rooms. You slept with Frankie most nights, Santiago surely letting it go for now until he no longer needed you. What were these last 2 months when he could have an eternity with Francisco? You were deep in sleep, dreaming when something began to wake you. A hand on your mouth. You were certain it was the incubus again, you try to scream but the hand over your mouth is clamped on tight. You open your eyes to see Jonahā€™s face.
All attempts to scream, to move are fruitless as you wake up, writhing but you are held tightly around the waist, large hands holding down both of your own. Jonah -or the incubus taking his form- didnā€™t attempt to touch you, instead when you locked eyes with him they were wide with worry. Tired, dark bags under his eyes. You look down. Itā€™s Franciscoā€™s hands that are holding you.
Your body stills, tears forming in your eyes from fear and anger and confusion. Jonah isnā€™t dead.
Slowly, Franciscoā€™s hand is removed from your mouth to let out a whimper as you turn around to see him. ā€œWhatā€™s happening?ā€ You cry to your husband, his soft face looking as scared as you are.
ā€œWeā€™re leaving.ā€ He helps you sit up in the bed, then gets up, getting dressed in the light of the candle.
ā€œNo.ā€ You shake your head, inching away from Jonah. ā€œIā€™m not going anywhere with him.ā€ Your voice is quiet, cracking with emotion as you try to wrap your head around it all.Ā 
Irisā€™s voice speaks as she lights a candle now, revealing her face in the dark room. ā€œItā€™s okay, trust me.ā€ She uses your real name.
ā€œButā€¦ but heā€¦ he tried tooā€¦ā€ You couldnā€™t say the words.
Jonah was knelt at your bed, his eyes pleading for understanding. ā€œI donā€™t expect you to forgive me for what i did honey. It was wrong. But pleaseā€¦ I need you to know I would never, ever have violated youā€¦ it doesnā€™t make what happened any better butā€¦ I need you to know how it really happened.ā€
Shaking in bed, you look to Iris, the only face here you could trust for truth. ā€œJust hear him out. I wonā€™t tell you how to feel.ā€
Francisco gently tugged you out of bed, dressing you in warm clothing and putting socks and shoes on as Jonah told you what happened. He explained how Will made him a deal, a chance to get Iris out. How Will gave permission to rape you, but he swore up and down heā€™d kill himself before he took it that far, that he would never have touched you or hurt you, he just needed to scare you.
You couldnā€™t process this. Will wasā€¦ Will. You didnā€™t trust him, but Will protected you! Heā€™d never let someone hurt you to scare a lesson into you!
ā€œNoā€¦ā€ You say as Francisco ties your shoes. ā€œNo he wouldnā€™t let someone hurt meā€¦ he took a bullet for me!ā€
Iris shushed you harshly, but Jonah shook his head. ā€œNo, he didnā€™t. Melody was trying to kill Ben because he raped her. Honeyā€¦ā€ He sighed. ā€œIrisā€¦ she told me about the ā€œincubusā€¦ā€ I thought you knewā€¦ā€
You blink. ā€œKnew what?ā€
ā€œWill. He was coming into your room every nightā€¦ I didnā€™t- Rey and I thoughtā€¦ we didnā€™t think he was doing it when you slept. Iā€™m sorry.ā€
No. No, Will wouldnā€™t do that. Will wouldnā€™t take you while you were sleeping! Why would he do that when you were available to him all day every day? You remembered what Santiago said, that if the baby came out with blonde hair, thereā€™d be a problemā€¦ When trying to conceive, Francisco was barely talking to you, and Santiago was angry at you the first time you didnā€™t end up pregnantā€¦ you were fill most days by the Miller brothers multiple timesā€¦
This baby was likely one of theirs.
ā€œMadonnaā€¦ā€ Francisco whispers wrapping his arm around your middle. ā€œWe have to go. Weā€™re getting you and Iris out.ā€
*
Down the halls, you sneak, the four of you walking as quietly as possible and navigating where guards are posted, where the floors creak and moan the most, and how to avoid Ben or Santiago or Will.Ā 
Your heart was beating a million times a minute, your skin on fire with fear, holding your belly. You needed to be brave. This was no life for your baby to grow up in, Santiago was not a parent to raise a childā€¦
For the first time, you realize why your dad was willing to tear everything he knew apart to make a better life for you.
ā€œThis way.ā€ Francisco motions, but Jonah stops, making you and Iris stop too.
Jonah whispers. ā€œYou said we were going this way? That way is past Benā€™s room.ā€
ā€œThere was a change in the guards, Will has them all posted along that side now.ā€
ā€œAnd you just now thought to tell me?ā€
ā€œCā€™mon.ā€
Reluctantly, Jonah follows Francisco down the hall, right to Benā€™s room where he stops.
ā€œ...Frankā€¦ā€
But Francisco lingers on the door, hand brushing against the wood.
ā€œFrankie, donā€™t.ā€ Iris pleads, but you are frozen. Jonah grabs Iris, telling you to follow him but youā€™re frozen in place. He doesnā€™t see you not following, or he doesnā€™t care. His priority is Iris, and you canā€™t blame him for that. You watch in horror as Francisco knocks on the door, and Ben answers with a wide grin.
ā€œShouldā€™ve known youā€™d come knocking, babyā€¦ā€ He pulls him in for a kiss, pulling his pouty lower lips between his teeth but stopping when he saw you.
ā€œWhy is she here?ā€ he says with disdain. It shouldnā€™t hurt, but it did. He was supposed to love you. He could be the father of your babyā€¦ Heā€™s the father of Irisā€™s baby you remind yourself.
ā€œBenny, Benny I need you to listen to me, okay?ā€ Francisco pleads, his hands pawing at Bennyā€™s baby face, begging for attention, for understanding and suddenly you know what heā€™s doing.
ā€œFranciscoā€¦ā€ You mutter, disappointment clawing at your throat, but both men ignored you.
ā€œFrankie, what's going on?ā€ Benā€™s voice was soft and worried, that tender tone he only ever used on Francisco. He half chuckles, and itā€™s a nervous sound. ā€œYouā€™re scaring me hereā€¦ā€
A soft kiss to his lips. ā€œWe need to leave, okay? We gotta get Madonna out of hereā€¦ she canā€™t be with Santi, heā€™s crazy, heā€™ll kill her.ā€
Ben shakes his head, laughing lightly in disbelief. ā€œNo way, man. We have a duty here. The savior, Santi-ā€
ā€œFUCK Santi, Ben, I-ā€ Franciscoā€™s voice crack, holding Ben against the wall, his plush lips trailing the younger manā€™s skin. ā€œBenny, please, I love you, I love you so fucking much. We donā€™t need him, we can just leave, we can start a new lifeā€¦ Jonah and Iris are leaving, weā€™ll be far away with Madonna long before anyone knows weā€™re goneā€¦ We donā€™t need anyone else, we only need each otherā€¦ Please, please, please, justā€¦ come with meā€¦ā€
Ben searched his face, blue eyes shining. He touched Franciscoā€™s face with such tenderness you didnā€™t think possible from the hurricane of a man. Ben with Francisco was a totally different man.
But he was still loyal to Santiago above all else.
ā€œFrankie, letā€™s just go talk to Santi-ā€
ā€œNo, Ben-ā€
ā€œWeā€™ll work this out, get Iris and Jonah backā€
No, no they canā€™t have her. They canā€™t fucking touch Iris.
But Francisco just nods, closing his eyes. ā€œOkay. Okay yeah, weā€™ll make this right.ā€
Ā ā€œFrancisco!ā€ You are once again ignored.
Francisco closes in on Ben, caging him against the wall as he kisses him. ā€œWeā€™ll be together, right? After the savior is born, we can be togetherā€¦ā€
ā€œYeah baby.ā€ Ben kisses him back, arms wrapped around his thick middle. ā€œJust you and me. We donā€™t need no one else.ā€
Francisco raises his hand to Benā€™s neck and you think heā€™s going to caress his faceā€¦ but then Benā€™s movements halt to a stop. Then, a slow jerking of his body, and Francisco whispering, ā€˜Iā€™m sorry baby, Iā€™m sorryā€¦ Iā€™m so sorry Bennyā€™
Blood trickled down his arm, and as Francisco pulled away you see that Francisco slit his throat. He slowly lowers his loverā€™s heavy frame to the ground, the younger manā€™s body still jolting and a gagging, gurgling sound escaping his throat. Ben was dying silently, a complete opposite of the way he lived.
His body shook as the last blood spilled, and all Francisco could do was hold him and cry.

can we get more abuser ellie headcannons/drabbles :)
Headcannons: toxic!ellie williams x reader
Hi anon! I just wanted to say a few things before I start. This not your fault and Iā€™m not mad at you for requesting this. Thank you for your request and I hope you like what I have done<3
Tumblr media
Before we start I would like to say a couple of things. I am in no way, shape or form trying to romanticize abuse. Abusive relationships and situations are traumatic to those who have experienced it. In my therefore you and me series I did write about abuse and I tried not to romanticize it. That is why I killed Ellieā€™s character at the end because of she had done. So once again, letā€™s not romanticize this, because people lose their lives daily because of it. I deeply apologize to those who I have hurt and triggered in my series. I do want to disappoint whoever requested this so I changed it into toxic!Ellie x reader with a not so toxic ending.
ā˜† Toxic Ellie who met you in a bar one night and immediately fell head over heels for you.
ā˜† Toxic Ellie who stomach churned every time she saw you interacting with your friends. ā€˜
ā˜† Toxic Ellie who started taking your phone while you were asleep to check if you were cheating.
ā˜† Toxic Ellie who started following you to work every morning to make sure you werenā€™t talking to any other girl.
ā˜† Toxic Ellie who would lose her shit when she saw you smile with someone else.
ā˜† Toxic Ellie who makes multiple accounts on social media to threaten your coworkers and friends.
ā˜† Toxic Ellie who comforts you as you cried because none of your friends wanted to talk to you anymore.
ā˜† Toxic Ellie who gets a job directly across the cafĆ© where you work so watch you.
ā˜† Toxic Ellie who starts arguments with you because she doesnā€™t like when you talk to other people.
ā€œjust fucking leave me alreadyā€ she yelled.
ā€œEllie why are you yelling? She literally just helped me carry my groceriesā€
ā€œdonā€™t fucking lie, if I didnā€™t show up, you wouldā€™ve fucked herā€
ā˜† Toxic Ellie who cuts up your clothing when you have to go out, and then you have to stay home with her.
ā˜† Toxic Ellie who gets emotional when you donā€™t respond to her within one minute
ā€œyouā€™re probably fucking someone elseā€
ā˜† Toxic Ellie who threatens you if you try to leave.
ā€œyouā€™re a bad personā€ you spoke through tears
ā€œI swear if you leave me Iā€™ll kill anyone who comes near youā€
ā˜† Toxic Ellie who hacks your social medias and reads your DMā€™s because sheā€™s scared you might find someone else.
ā˜† Toxic Ellie who starts going to therapy because you threatened her with a restraining order.
ā˜† Toxic Ellie who talks about her childhood and how much she hated her parents.
ā˜† Toxic Ellie who realizes that she has attachment issues.
ļæ½ļæ½ Toxic Ellie who realizes her behavior was bad.
ā˜† Toxic Ellie who shows up to your apartment sobbing and apologizing.
ā˜† Toxic Ellie who goes to therapy twice a week, and learns ways to deal with her issues.
ā˜† Not so toxic Ellie who forgives her parents and moves on.
ā˜† Not so toxic Ellie who finally moves on from her trauma.
ā˜† Not so toxic Ellie finally living a happy and normal life with you.
ā˜† Not so toxic Ellie who finally gets a happy ending.

!!LEGO Monkie Kid Season Five Spoilers!!
~Nine (Nine-headed demon) x Gn!Reader~
Tumblr media
A/n: Guys, look, you can't give me a green reptilian villain character and expect me NOT to go a bit crazy. I hope we see more of him in the next/future seasons.
Tags: Headcanons, ooc probably
!!Warnings!!: Toxic relationship elements, this is not meant to romanticize toxic relationships, I just felt like there's no way this guy wouldn't be toxic. Love is respect.
Surprisingly respectful... at first
Despite being green, he has an insane amount of red flags
He's a reptile so he is definitely not super affectionate, not a fan of PDA, at least, but he wants you by his side wherever he goes
Showing you off to everyone but also hissing at anyone who looks at you too long
Tries to be subtle about hating people he's jealous of but fails miserably
Tells you you always have a choice but heavily implies that what he wants is the right choice (and keeps trying to convince you if you choose otherwise)
Says he knows what's best for you
You started jokingly calling him Medusa and he started calling you Little Stone in response and it kinda just stuck
Toxic and oblivious
He either sees you as his pet or worships you, there's no in-between
100% a "Nice Guy" but still more stable than like... half of the rest of the characters
Literally green with envy, if your attention isn't on him at all times he's throwing a fit
Tries to convince you to embrace the chaos with him
Do not ask him for advice, his solutions range from bad to worse
Will have frustrated outbursts that are kind of terrifying but he'll bring you on a fancy date later as an apology
If you choose not to embrace the chaos with him, he will feel torn over staying with you or leaving; inevitably, he will choose the chaos over you, but he will wonder if it was the right decision
If you want more stuff like this, don't be afraid to give writing requests!

im sorry i need to dump all my thoughts about ada x leon somewhere for personal fulfillment reasons,
big disclaimer: resident evil canon/lore is inconsistent and my feelings/thoughts on all this is NOT me stating it as fact. It's 99% speculation and me interpreting context. I'm just having fun!
it's really wild that i started my resident evil experience hating Ada. I did not understand her character and the way she's portrayed is very inconsistent and confusing (probably on purpose) and, like many others, I assumed the choices she made and the pain she inflicted on others was malicious and intentional.
But something clicked recently,,,I understand now that she didn't choose this life. She doesn't WANT to be a spy. She doesn't WANT to be a mercenary. Everything she was and everything she had was taken and stripped from her. She doesn't even have a real name anymore. I think seeing the small insight of her backstory in the biohazard manga really put all the pieces together and brain blasted me with understanding. Her entire character (to me, at least!) revolves around survival and self-preservation. She is a SELFISH character, not because of ego or power, but because of a LACK of power. She no longer has autonomy over her life in a way that matters and so the only thing left for her is to stay alive.
And I just think that ties so beautifully with Leon's struggles. Both of them being forced into this life where they have to live and die at the hands of the people who control them. And, listen...listen...it's overdramatic as fuck and a VERY idealistic/romanticized interpretation of their relationship, but honestly it makes me hella emotional thinking about Leon potentially being one of the few things in life Ada wants to live for other than herself. Him being the only person in the entire series who has ever shown her genuine, selfless kindness and care,,, and the fact that her circumstance and the trappings of her life forced her to betray him and she has to live with that guilt and has to come to terms with the fact that she will never genuinely connect with people because who even is she anymore? She has no sense of self.
And her entire campaign in RE6 resonates me in such a weirdly poignant and impactful way. RE6 has some WONKED UP writing and it's so silly and stupid; but I think if it was tweaked a little bit it would be a genuinely moving story about a woman losing her agency and bodily autonomy to a violent man who wants to own her and her fighting with his fabricated, demented vision of her. It's a manifestation of his greed and possession...and then she kills her clone and immediately after she sees Leon again and his first immediate instinct is to protect her and sacrifice himself again for her and throw himself into MORE bullets for her even after the betrayal of RE2 ........ and then after that she finally snaps and FINALLY chooses to fight for HER morals and HER justice by killing Simmons' bioweapon.
Like, listen, I hate the trope of "woman traumatized being saved by a man" in most cases, but something about the way I see Leon and Ada just makes SENSE man.
The fact that she specifically goes out of her way COUNTLESS times to protect him and save him and none of it is enough to get him to forgive her. None of it will ever be enough but she keeps trying anyways. Like, damn, his entire mission is Spain is only possible because Ada saved his ass like...four times??? And you can make reasonable arguments that she doesn't care about him he's only important for her mission, and to be honest I think that interpretation is also valid, but for me personally I just think she cares about him so much but it's in his best interest to continue believing she doesn't care.
And I just want them to be happy. But it will probably never work out between them, just due to everything...they can't escape their lives. They're both kept alive by two opposing morality systems. Leon's guilt and unyielding need to fight for truth and innocence and to protect everyone he's lost and everyone who depends on him. And Ada to hold onto herself and what whittling remains of self-identity and independence she still has when it was all taken from her, even to the point of someone making a damn clone out of her.
Man I just love them so much I'M SO EMOTIONAL!!!!!!!

The thing about shipping discourse is that antishippers range from "hey, this is a weird topic for fiction" to "if you write these characters in a way I don't like then you should kys"
And proshippers range from "ship and let ship" to "I think that incest should be romanticized irl"
So shipcourse is impossible to pick a proper side on because shipcourse never has a real definition.
Sorry for putting this in your inbox but I'd be killed if I said this myself/hj
Nono you're fine. Plus I mean. You're right. I think there are people on both sides who have some. Uhh. Interesting (really fucking bad and terrible) opinions. I tend to lean more toward the proship side because among the two decent opinions, "ship and let ship" is a far more appealing sentiment to me than "hey, this is a weird topic for fiction." As much as I understand where the feeling comes from (because trust me, I have shit I hate seeing even in fiction... adult x child ships make me want to remove my skin) I don't think anyone should be allowed to control the content that others make or consume. That's why I'm a firm believer in blocking tags (and people if necessary).

(abuse tw for some of this)
awwwe glad I'm not bothering you!! my experience in the scott pilgrim fandom has been one of the worst... it's good to hear people talk about it. I could go on for hours
I'm sorry people are so terrible to you :(( some of those comments you got are really vile (especially the fatphobic and fetish-y ones about wlw)
and yeah. I definitely get what you mean about gideon and ramona. I'm a domestic abuse survivor (like. a real one. not fictional characters, real life!!!) and I found a lot of comfort in thinking about their story. understanding them helped me understand myself a little better so I could get the closure I needed and move on. maybe that's bad! maybe I was romanticizing! I very very rarely ship things, like, ever, and when I write scary things I do so with the intent of character exploration, not fluff. I was never squealing and kicking my feet back and forth on my bed about them, lol, I was thinking "why is gideon the way he is? why is ramona? how did they affect each other? how are they alike? how are they different?"
I don't actually like toxicity, I find it kinda boring, and I prefer tragedy when I want angst. but gideon and ramona drew me in because I had been through something horrific and I saw pieces of that in them. I wanted to understand what happened to me. and through writing and therapy and lots of time I got my closure, I moved on. maybe that's romanticization, idk. maybe we should just never think about anything bad or scary at all. I guess if it makes me a bad person, then I'm a bad person. I'll live!
as for scott, I can't stand him. maybe because of his fans and how many men I've met who are just like him, lol. the cutesy version from takes off didn't help (at least the comic version was more grounded and felt more like a person I could sympathize with)
much love,
-šŸ¦Š
Yeeees I noticed this fandom was mean since the start but usually no one else talked about it šŸ˜” like, did you see the times people on Twitter reposted Todd x Wallace art there just to say how much they hated the drawing??? (In the end, they just hated the ship and used this as an excuse to bully artists)
Everytime I posted on dailyrammy, I couldn't stop overthinking about "what will be the reason for hate comments this time??" Because I just knew it'd happen. The fatphobic ones were the comments that made me feel the worst... I surely like the way I draw Ramona, but the amount of hate because of this was too much to me.
Now, about Ramona and Gideon. I understand you so much! It was the exact same to me!! Being able to relate to Ramona in this situation made me feel so much better about my own experiences. Especially in the moments Ramona mentioned how being with Gideon made her feel like a bad person. This really changed me. I never felt comfortable talking about my own abusive relationship because in that moment I was the worst version of myself. And Ramona was just like me and talking about it and their relationship made me feel way better about myself.
But guess what? People would prefer if I only said "Gideon was abusive to Ramona, he sucks!!" And never mentioned this subject again. Maybe this way I would get head pets for telling the obvious. However, I decided to explore their thoughts and reasons - showing how awful you feel about yourself when this happens to you - and this was the same as romanticizing to some. They even started doubting my own experiences and used the abuse I suffered as a gotcha moment. As a "how don't you feel bad writing about something so dark when the same happened to you?? Doesn't it make you feel bad???"
And actually, no. It makes me feel less alone, in fact. If it wasn't for Ramona, I would still feel so ashamed to even talk about what happened to me. But okay, I guess. I'm bad because I like Gideon - a very cartoony villain, I should add.
Last thing about Scott, you're so right!! And the dudes that claim to be like him are most times so annoying.... I like comic Scott a little better, but nothing close to a favorite character.

.... and you're NOT gonna tell us about the Shadowgast Playlist? Please šŸ«“, hand it over.
I said in my original post this was my toxic trait... nonetheless I am SO glad someone took the bait šŸ˜ˆ
I'm not going to post the link because I value my spotify privacy and also I have an embarrassing username that no one needs to know about. However, since you asked nicely (and let's be honest, I wasn't expecting anyone to care! so thank you!), I will share āœØ my personal top 5 shadowgast songs āœØ with a bit of context for each.
If you're just here to roast my music taste, bear in mind... I said toxic trait. Proceed at your own risk.
1. Time in a Bottle by Jim Croce
"If I could make days last forever / If words could make wishes come true / I'd save every day like a treasure and then / Again, I would spend them with you..."
This one has two meaning imo: first, early-campaign Caleb wishing he could change the past to save his parents' lives; later, Essek wishing he had more time to spend with Caleb. The original version is beautiful, but there is also a cover by Yungblud (yes, it's on the Hobbs & Shaw soundtrack) that's badass but a very different vibe.
2. Lilith by Halsey
"I'm perfection when it comes to first impressions / I romanticize and then I get to stressing / Big brain like I'm teaching at a lesson / Baby, it's a blessing..."
Every time this song comes on I legit yell ESSEK ANTHEM! because it is. This is the Hot Villain theme song. The beat is so sexy. The lyrics are on point ("I am disgusting / I've been corrupted / And by now I don't need not help to be destructive"). The vibes are just immaculate.
3. No Halo by Brockhampton
"Went to church for the hell of it, stumbled in drunk as shit / Been going through it again / Been talking to myself, wondering who I am / Been thinking I am better than Him..."
Look. I could write an entire essay about this one song. Wizard hubris, depression, and the crisis of faith Essek goes through when the Nein find out about his betrayal. Also, for those who theorize Essek is the unwilling chosen of the Luxon - he could, in fact, be "God's special mess".
4. X&Y by Coldplay
"I dive in at the deep end / You become my best friend / I want to love you but I don't know if I can / I know something is broken / And I'm trying to fix it / Trying to repair it / Any way I can..."
Two characters who both think they are terrible people that don't deserve love, trying to be better and trying to better each other? And they fall in love? And they're narrative foils? No one is doing it like them! (Plus the chorus "You and me are drifting into outer space" just screams ~wizards in the star room~.)
5. All The Stars by Kendrick Lamar feat. SZA (album version)
"Tell me what you gon' do to me / Confrontation ain't nothing new to me / You can bring a bullet, bring a sword, bring a morgue / But you can't bring the truth to me..."
I don't know how this song manages to be both broody and uplifting at the same time, but it is and it's perfection. It's the grimness of reality and the hope for the future, the refrain of "All the stars are closer" symbolizing all the possibilities that are now within reach.
And oh boy, I don't have time to write about the whole playlist but if you've made it this far, here are some bonus mini listicles because this is my Roman Empire šŸ˜Œ
Entire playlist of just shadowgast-coded Hozier songs:
Arsonist's Lullabye
In The Woods Somewhere
De Selby (pt. 2)
Someone New
Like Real People Do
Moment's Silence
From Eden
All My Homies Hate Trent Ikithon songs:
Heathens by Twenty One Pilots
Eat Your Young by Hozier
Buzzkill by Mothica
Another Brick In The Wall, pt. II by Pink Floyd
My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark by Fall Out Boy
Other ships? In my shadowgast playlist? It's more likely than you think:
The Cave by Mumford & Sons (widobrave)
Cringe by Matt Maeson (widojest)
Tessellate by alt-J (blumendrei)
EDM wizard songs if you're into that sort of thing (I am):
Time Stops by Virtual Riot
I'd Love To Change The World (Matstubs Remix) by Jetta
I Could Be Anything by the Glitch Mob feat. Elohim
New Eyes by Echos
Keep in mind this is just a handful of songs out of like a hundred, so I welcome you to give me the benefit of the doubt and fill in the rest of the playlist in your mind with whatever makes me seem cool to you.
Thank you for coming to my ted talk, I am sorry it took me four days to write this... šŸ˜…

Im not over here like "incest is so cute" or "šŸ¤© im just so obsessed with how he rapes -insert character-" thats what makes proshippers so off putting and disgusting they romanticize the fuck out of a gross topic, I've never seen 1 proshipper actually write a good story involving their ships and I've especially never seen a proshipper NOT make proshipping their whole fking personality like we all know you can't be that black and white.
Theres 0 interesting story in some shop about lets say slender fking a brother of his, just like making a picture of Jeff the Killer x Homicidal Liu is also just like "why?" Besides you finding incest cute there was no reason why they needed to like each other in a disgusting way and no reason to especially fk each other.
And no I am not getting into the whole "it comforts me" aspect as if that means your valid. You'll get upset with me for saying that then post the next day "I dont exist to protect your feelings" like we can just say the exact same thing back, if you find comfort i prosgipping, no one online or irl needs to hear about it, keep your self healthing to yourself if its actually helping you heal. If it only comforts you when other poeple get to see it and you know it will bring you some type of reaction, thats not comfort, thats just attention seeking.
No one on earth needs to be bombarded with your gross ships just because it makes you feel better, you dont need to be butting fandom tags next to your proshipper tags, you can have them on private account elsewhere that the public dont see it.
It's honestly just like this who self-harm for comfort, no ones gotta see it. Thats blunt but its the truth, no ones gotta see it. No ones gotta read about it, only your friends care about your feelings, the rest of us just hope you get help and wish to move on with our day without getting more of that shoved in our faces.
"Well you still made a story with thay subject matter before, why aren't poeple bad at that, they hate me for my Jeff x Liu ship!" think another big difference between a proshipper and someone that writes an incets scene, beastiality scene, grape scene for their horror story, a writer has content like that in a story they developed and they dont obsess over that one part like its their new baby that the whole block needs to hear about constantly, oh and they also use trigger warnings before the reader gets to read the story and if they do talk about that scene on a post, yall dont put warnings, ever. When a proshipper makes a story, the only shit they post about is that one uncomfortable part, or they make the whole story about that subject and can't lighten up and add more creative subjects to the story, it just HAS to be about this one morally wrong thing that their absolutely obsessed over!
Like really thats why antis think you guys are such freak, you have one personality trait and its making gross content in a way that isn't even good literature writing, you obsess over it like you'll instantly combust into ashes if you dont post about it daily, all the content is shown in good light using words and phrases like "cute" "so ment to be" "adorable" "I giggle at it" your praising a subject that shouldn't be praised and thats why people putside of your proship community dont like you guys, you show this content in such good light constantly that its allowed actual prodophiles and people who are actually full on into those subjects irl into your community, unintentionally you've created such a safe space for those kinds of people because they can talk about it in this good light and just say "oh but I dont support it irl" and lots of people would just easily belive them qhile thats not the reality. Thats the biggest issue. You've created a community that can easily harbor literal chriminals, and you will still stand tall and proud about your incest, pedo, beastiality, grape content thata your so obsessed over, while it gives actual criminals a place to get their rocks off while they don't have their current subject matter of interest with them.
Anyways I'm done ranting now.

Fanfic tropes
Thank you for the tag, @writing-for-life! It took me so long to get around to this.
Rules: How much do these tropes affect your decision to click on a fic?
ā€¢ -10 -> very dissuaded
ā€¢ 0 - don't care either way
ā€¢ 10 -> very enticed
ā€¢ nope -> if it's a hard no and you'd never click on a fic with that tag or or you even have the tag blocked or you'd insta click out of the fic if it wasn't tagged
Bonus points for explaining the rating and whether it's conditional.
Age Gap: -6 It very much depends on the kind of age gap we're talking about, though I get uncomfortable when it's about teenage characters more than one year apart. As two adults? Perfectly fine, so long as you're not counting an 18/19 year old as an adult in the dynamic with some 30 year old, sorry. There's a level.
Codependency: -5 Tends to make me uncomfortable. The real-life experience of it has soured a lot of romanticism that goes on around it for me. As before, there are levels and lines associated with it. Depends. But generally, I don't like it. There are healthier ways to write about people who don't want to lose each other.
Enemies to lovers: 10 ...shut up. So what if it's my favourite trope SO WHAT? When done right, it is just beautiful, wonderful, delicious, fantastic. I tend to write enemies to lovers adjacent tropes in a lot of my works. I'm obsessed with the kind of chemistry it creates, the tension, the drama. Of course, there's also a healthy way to do it, and then downright red flag type toxicity. Be careful.
Enemies With Benefits: 4 Can be a delicious slice of drama and spice when done right.
Fake Dating/Relationship: 5 I didn't care much for it for a while, but it's grown on me. When done well, it is almost as fun as enemies to lovers.
Found Family: 7 Really enjoy this trope, though it tends to get repetitive in ways its done. My favourites are from canon really and not fanfic, but I won't click away if I see it in the tags - most likely I'd be curious to see how the author chose to do it.
Friends to Lovers: 0 Don't really care. Don't love it or hate it. Sort of bland, depending on how you write it.
Friends with Benefits: 0 Also don't care much for it but I'm not dissuaded or encouraged necessarily.
Hurt/Comfort: 3 It depends. I like writing hurt/comfort but it's always a coin toss when it's in fanfic. I more like writing angst and comforting scenes than I do reading them, weirdly.
Love Triangle: -4 I'm so tired of it because one character is always clearly the better option (to me) and it's frustrating either watching the character in the middle be an idiot who can't decide over what should be an easy choice or pick the wrong love interest entirely. And then if it's a proper triangle where someone likes someone else? Boring and frustrating. Have a threesome about it.
Mistaken/Hidden Identity: 10 Fucking delicious. Give me more. I want more fics with this.
Monster Fu... Relationship: 0 Don't care much, I don't really have cause to come across anything with it?? None of my fandoms really have monster characters to fuck so... unless you count werewolves? Kinda feels too much like bestiality there, sorry. If it's human/animal-aligned then it's more of a "nope" if it goes into sexual territory.
Obsession, Possessiveness, etc.: -10 NOPE. I'M GONE. I'M OUT. I can give some fics passes if it's a more low-key, but it very rarely is.
Opposites (like grumpy x sunshine, etc): 1 Depends. I like opposites, but it's difficult to make it feel believable in fanfic sometimes. Cute in theory. Execution tends to be a bit off. Plus, I don't like it when it's too surface-level sunshine and grumpy etc.
Poly: 0 Also depends. I don't care too much. If I think the dynamic of characters is good, I'm completely fine with it and will even enjoy it. Rare though. I haven't seen a lot of these.
Pregnancy: -5 BUT it also depends. Highly conditional. Highly. I need it done well and without cliches.
Second Chance: 5 I actually quite like this when the circumstances are good e.g. a lot of time has passed and whatever incident that took them apart was not too bad, or genuine changes have occurred, or there was a misunderstanding etc.
Sex to Feelings: 2 Kinda tasty, not gonna lie. I don't mind it.
Slowburn: 10 TAKE MY MONEY. SLOWBURNS FOR THE WIN. THIS IS CRUCIAL. ESPECIALLY WITH ENEMIES TO LOVERS OR RIVALS TO LOVERS, IF IT'S NOT SLOWBURN WTF ARE YOU DOING.
Soulmates: -10 Bye. See you on the other side of the delulu spectrum.
Tagging: @faithfromanewperspective, @ibrushmyteeth-donttellanyone, @zoyalannister, @manawari, @stabbydragon, @sourlemons262, @griddle-cakes. Tagged you either because I know you're a fanfic writer or because I think you'd enjoy this (or both). No pressure to do it though, loves <3

I think you're literally the only person I've ever see show common sense regarding shipping and adult and kids. Like fr if I say it's wrong I get hit by barrage of it's fiction, it's not real, it's a coping mechanism, it's ship and let ship, pro shipping is valid. I see so many posts going round saying it's not ethical to criticise a fictional ship that's problematic because it's not real. But for example using Cegan faces via the actors is JDM and Chandler Riggs who is a child. Like I feel like I'm going insane sometimes. Also people who deliberately write incest or stuff like that because they are into it or are drawn to it like... I've had people say it's only fictional incest they're obsessed with. It's not like it's part of a plot like house of the dragon where it's also looked down on and hated in their fictional world. It's like people are writing it for their own gratification and that worries me. I wrote JDM x OC because I'm heavily into JDM and writing Negan is living vicariously. I project on to an adult oc. But to ship Cegan is to project you're sexually attracted to either children or the idea of an adult and kids together which is just hugely gross
Absolutely NO hate to this anon bc I fully agree but do want to both answer this ask and use it as a quick little PSA that I will no longer respond to shipping discourse on this blog. This will be the last one! I donā€™t want any of this drama to deter my followers and cloud their feeds. Henceforth this blog is Daryl fanfiction only! šŸ’š ((If you do want to talk about this feel free to use my other blog @crxss-bxw))
Anyways, yeah I fully agree. Writing adult x child content is incredibly sus and so is consuming it.
I like to assume (for my own mental health) that most of them are kids and they just have the hots for an adult character so they think itā€™s okay but the sad reality is that a lot of the people participating in these pedophilic ships are adults and itā€™s a form of grooming imo to put that sort of content out there and normalize it.
It desensitizes the reader to things like pedophilia (or in other cases incest or beastiality).
They can say ā€œminors DNIā€ all day but thatā€™s not gonna stop a minor from interacting.
They can call it a coping mechanism all day but if youā€™re a victim of CSA then you need therapy to help you learn real healthy coping mechanisms. You donā€™t need to seek out adult x child content that romanticizes the very behaviors that traumatized you in the first place. That is doing way more harm than good.
And the ā€œitā€™s fictionalā€ argument is flimsy and made of straw. Lolita was a work of fiction too, and the entire purpose of that story is to show how sick and twisted the mind of an individual who is attracted to children is. It wasnā€™t meant to be romanticized. Yet, here we are today, where people regularly romanticize it as if itā€™s a romance novel when it is indeed quite the opposite.
Not only that, but sites like ao3 literally exist for problematic ships to be posted without backlash, so why act surprised when people on a platform like this one express discomfort with things like pedophilia or incest within their fandoms???
And since you mentioned the actual actors behind the characters, it does feel incredibly harmful for a child actor or an adult actor to have their faces used for content that is literal pedophilia.
Anyways, thanks for the ask & if you wanna continue the conversation or talk about anything else feel free to pm or use the asks on @crxss-bxw. (That goes for anyone. If any of you ceganers show up in my inbox behind an anon on this blog Iā€™m just gonna block u xoxoxo thereā€™s literally nothing you could say to make me change my mind)

ā˜¢ What fads/trends are you so over? āœ– How has Tumblr RP changed since you started? ā˜€ What's your rp pet peeve?
the salty af munday meme
Tumblr media
ā˜¢ What fads/trends are you so over?
TINY. ASS. ICONS.
I AM NOT EVEN REMOTELY SORRY TO SAY THAT I AM GENUINELY A LITTLE HATEFUL TOWARDS ICONS THAT ARE UNDER 70X70. I HAVE A LARGE MONITOR. YOU HAVE TINY ICONS. I AM NOT GOING TO ZOOM IN TO BEHOLD WHATEVER YOUR ICON IS. I UNDERSTAND PEPLE ENJOY THE AESTHETIC OF TINY ICONS OR SOME PEOPLE WRITE ON MOBILE AND MORE POWER TO YOU IF YOU DO BUT BELIEVE ME WHEN I SAY THAT THE EYE STRAIN IS REAL.
i'm not even remotely joking. if i see a too-small icon ( anything under 70x70 ) then i'm not going to bother trying to puzzle it out. small icons are a hellish thing. i want to find out whoever started that trend and just egg their car. it's one of the biggest things for me that i'm absolutely over.
i'm so tired of the minimalism that has crept into the rpc.
like yes that's a very pretty psd you're using just put it on icons that aren't the size of grains of sand. i've seen people make icons as small as 50x50. or, and this one is even worse, 30x30.
please. stop doing that. stop doing that.
also the hyper-crispy psds. like if all i'm seeing is jagged black blobs against violent bursts of color, that's also something i won't bother trying to puzzle out. i'm so over those too, especially when it's slapped onto tiny icons. just the minimalistic quality in general that's slipped into the rpc. shit like this is something that i struggle with and i've got damn good eyes. i can't even imagine what it's like for people who might have vision problems.
this is one fad that i feel NEEDS to go away.
āœ– How has Tumblr RP changed since you started?
honestly, it feels much more like closed circles these days and there's a general faint whiff of paranoia about some things. i think it has to do with the rise of the puritanism that we're seeing more and more in fandoms these days which is both alarming and saddening. it used to be that people didn't have to say "the stuff i write is IC based. this isn't what i believe in/support offline/out of character" because it was understood that people could write awful bastards ( like me! ) and that it was just roleplay.nowadays, it feels like you have to be very deliberate and careful in what you say and do otherwise you'll get people throwing baseless accusations around. i would know. i've been through that myself. cas has been through it. i can imagine other people have done that too. tie in the rise of "omg you're romanticizing X/Y/Z!" that's going on and i'm not surprised it's changing at all. it's honestly rather sad.
ā˜€ What's your rp pet peeve?
besides fucking tiny ass icons? i suppose gratuitous purple prose & thesaurus abuse will do it for me. if i have to use a thesaurus for your fancy ass way of saying "she sighed and looked at him before speaking up" then i'm probably going to want to bite you. like i'm trying to get more purple prosey again to some extent because i want to fancy my writing up again, but if i'm reading your writing and it's something like you'd read in Atlas Shrugged or whatnot, then i'm just going to be over here with my face in my hands doing a very muffled yell because sometimes using simple words is much more impactful. but that's just me; honestly, if you're having fun, then do what you want. but i'm still going to just not be very into that kind of writing.

I am xenogender, and some of my xenogender are: Applegender and catgender(At the moment these are the ones, as I'm still getting to know myself)
I have a gf, so please don't be weird.
I don't know all the terms of phrases and etc, so use simpler words to talk to me/gen
ALWAYS use tonetags when you talk to me (example: if you are being sarcastic, use "/s", bcz if you DON'T use it I'll think you're serious and NOT being sarcastic)
Don't say you're a bigger fan of Two than me, I know it's weird but I'm competitive sometimes when it comes to loving something I'm fixated on at the moment.
I don't like problematic people, and if you are a... GET OUT-
I LOVE TPOT, TPOT is my current main focus/fixation!
My username is a pun on the name "Fournor", however, removing the word "Four" and replacing it with "Two"; thus forming Twounor! ;) (This was genuinely creative of me)
English is NOT my first language
I can get stressed easily over little things, so be careful what you say.
I'm that typical therapist friend who doesn't know how to comfort a friend who's sad, but try to help his friend.
I'm a minor, don't be a WEIRDO WITH ME!!>://
I don't understand jokes(I don't know why)
I don't like touches
I don't like to pay attention all the time when it's NOT a subject that suits me, but if it's a topic I know how to deal with; I pay attention.
I LOVE hearing people talk about their daily plans, characters they love, lore of their OCs, etc! I always write everything down about it and then think about asking questions to get more interested.
Most of the time I'm drawing or making scenarios in my head(fr lol)
I love staring at a place and direction until I forget what I was doing.
I'm mentally broken, that means that I can have mood swings, be too sensitive(or insensitive depending on the situation) or just easily distracted
I am LITERALLY TWO AND THREE, and I can prove it.
My art style is inspired by fouryx from Pinterest!! Btw I'm a big, BIG fan of his oMGAHAFSHDGUEBD //>W<\\ And also my art style is also inspired by sadieyayy and other artists that I love SO MUCHEKHF
YES, you CAN be inspired by my art style... But on one condition: giving me credit! :3
If you copy my art style or steal any of my art, I will hate you from the day you did it..(And I will hate you forever/srs )
Don't comfort me or force me to do something I don't feel comfortable with, it's not cool bro.
I LOVE PEOPLE WHO ARE KINNIES OF NINE, FOUR, FIVE, ANIMATIC, TWO OR X!! YOU GUYS ARE SO COOL BROO >x3
DNI!!
Basic DNI; Racists, problematic people, P3d0, Homophobes, Transphobes, etc!
Proshipper toxic and toxic compshippers(Only if they are problematic proshippers/comshippers who romanticize illegal things!!)
Any kind of wrong thing or problematic people are NOT welcome here!
Anti-xenogender/trans people are not welcome here either! Please know that disrespecting the xenogender community is the same thing as being transphobic!!
Making jokes, saying inappropriate words or harassing me/other people(Pls don't do this if you don't want to get into trouble)
Force to be my moot or friend(I'm not someone who's easy to befriend, so it's best not to force it and be patient so you can find a way to befriend me/become my moot)
Pls Interact!
NON-problematic people
Xenogender/Charic users
LGBTQIA+ people
Furry, therian and etc!
Beginning artists or any artists!
Cool people
Nine/Two/Four Kinnies!!(Pls you guys are so cool!!)
Lightshipper, multishipper, rarepair, selfshippers and multifandom people!(I LOVE SELFSHIPPERS RAHHH)
Nine, Five and Two fans :3
Don't force friendship or force being my moot!(If you do this, you will be showing me respect! In other words, you will gain a little trust from me!!/fr :O)
People who use tonetags!(It's important to sometimes use tonetags with me, I don't always understand what's irony or something serious)
Normal or neurodivergent people are also welcome! \\^_^\\ (I will do my best to treat you well and try my best not to do anything bad! And if I do something, I'm sorry- I can be explosive or passive-aggressive at times when I'm interrupted or annoyed-!)
Little warning for anyone who tries to become my moot/friend!-
I want you to know that I won't always respond to you quickly, because I'm either very distracted or I'm drawing/busy! And also if I get mad at you or hurt you without thinking twice, I apologize.. I can really be explosive sometimes!- But I will try my best not to lose my patience and do something bad, and also understand that sometimes I don't like to stay only on 1 subject that I don't know, because it takes away my interest in the conversation.. HOWEVER, if it is a conversation that I understand the subject (such as psychology, TPOT/BFDI, any Object Show, etc); I will be more interested and focus on the conversation! Oh, I also can't forget that in the first few days I will be very shy, insecure in what I say or quiet but don't worry... After a few days/weeks getting to know each other better, I will become someone close, cool and that will speak a lot to you!
I think that's all! Well, if you have any questions, just ask on my strawpage. :3

#elegcs. a selective and mutuals only indulging durge from larian's baldur's gate 3.
as composed by salem, he/they, 26, transmasc. est. 11/28/2024.
personnals and minors dni!
(graphics and co underway)
i. im salem! a 26 years old trans-man who uses he/they. i live in the UTC+2 timezone. i follow a course and study full time, i only have the week-end, vacations and late evenings really free. i also have undiagnosed attention deficit disorder. as such, activity is impacted.
ii. this blog is for a durge from b.aldur's g.ates 3. due to the very nature of the game, this will be a headcanon heavy portrayal.
iii. interactions are restricted to mutuals, and anon asks in some capacity. i keep my dash from being cluttered and will not follow back everyone. however, if i follow you it means i am very much willing to write with you.please
do not interact if you are a non-rp blog, a minor, or from these fandoms: hazbin hotel, mlp, mha, mcu (comics okay), dream smp.
iv. usual rp etiquette applies. and just do not be a douche overall. also, i use this platform as a way to have fun, not to ruin my mood. so i won't indulge in petty drama, and generally pay no more attention than necessary to callout posts. don't abuse the anon function for hate. don't mindlessly rag on people just because you somehow feel superior or disagree with a fair opinion. don't hate on people who enjoy fictional, non-problematic characters.
v. terrible behavior from muns won't get a pass. racism, homophobia, transphobia, queerphobia, bigotry, ableism, misoginy and every other less than pleasant conduct will result in a fast hard block.
vi. i am an adult and not averse to dark themes at all. these will appear in this blog so be forewarned. most notable will be the presence of blood, violence, trauma, murder, gore.
now, i don't want stuff like s* *ssault, *ncest, etc. while these can be part of a backstory, i'd rather not see it romanticized and overly detailed.
vii. regarding smut in particular, i know a lot of us are actual freaks, and i am open to it. but outside unserious memes, i will be selective about who i write it with. of course, minors are out of the equation, as are things mentionnes prior. please do not force smut content to happen.
viii. shipping is welcome here. but chemistry takes priority. so don't shove your ship down my throat if i refuse to entertain it. but if our muses get along and we can click as muns, then come discuss the possibilities. this doesn't just apply towards romantic shippings.
ix. multiple verses are available. this includes crossovers.
x. the psd used on this blog is from spookshowpremades. icons and other graphics normally use official ressources.
