#like he is hot bc he exudes hot energy

[chaotic-autumn]

Ok guys how do I become as hot as Captain Jack Harkness. I need a full list of steps.

What if I wrote more of idol!wonwoo x producer!reader from the “no biting” universe? :o read tags for my idea ♥︎

[simplydnp]

genuinely wondering why phil was considered the "ugly one" out of dan and phil. he's so hot? like there was a time where by some fans phil was literally seen as second best always... has that changed completely? i see more phillies than dannies these days which used to be absolutely the other way round if i remember correctly... like maybe it's just due to the fact that the fans grew up and delevoped some brain cells and/or phil having a glow up. what do you think abt this?

caveat: attraction is subjective and this is not a definitive guide as to what counts as hotness, nor is hotness the epitome of existence or something that people 'need' in order to exist, but instead this serves as an exploration into the culture surrounding perception of appearance as it relates to dan and phil, with care to note that 'conventional' beauty standards are highly correlated with white features and are problematic for many reasons but especially the racist aspect. i do not endorse the 'conventional' standard as the only acceptable one, but it would be remiss to ignore the fact that it plays a role in this conversation, especially in 2010s culture.

this is an interesting question for me because i don't Get all the layers of attraction just in general. so much of it makes very little sense, despite how hard i've tried to understand it. and what i've found out is that it's not supposed to make sense, it's something that just is and. well. my brain doesn't like that 😂 i've 'learned' what 'conventional' beauty standards are and thus can somewhat identify 'objectively' attractive people/qualities, but i'm absolutely just three possums in a trenchcoat on good days 🤣 so my best approximation is as follows:

- phil *pulled* back in the day online

- he stopped playing into it as much and because he wasn't exuding it as much, people stopped seeing it

- combine this with the less traditionally masculine energy he conveyed, alongside moving moreso away from the fully 'emo' look

- i think his fashion sense/choices played into this as well, came across very much like 'guy in tshirt' --which is fine, but unless your features really meet societal beauty standards at the time, it's not 'selling' you in the 'hot' department

- as well, contrasted with dan who had more of the 'societal beauty standard' look, people were less likely to see him in that role, especially because he seemed quite happy not being there (i'd argue some of it was a confidence thing too, especially on a day to day--the outfits video in gamingmas kind of confirmed that for me. he Knew he rocked that plaid suit, cause he did, but i don't think he felt that about his every day attire)

- people love to sort people into boxes and did as much with dnp, especially in making dnp 'opposites' (despite this not actually being true)

- truly think the fringe staying as long as it did didn't help, especially when, self-admittedly, it got a little blocky near the end.

- i think quiff really unlocked something in him. it really suited him, and he felt quite confident about it, as he had every right to. this, combined with a fashion upgrade in him paying a little more attention to it and developing his own personal style, people started to notice. (also dan hyping him up publicly about it made us talk about it more too)

- further style enhancements, more quiff experience led to him experimenting a little more, which let him find things he really liked

- i also think he's learned how to pose better/isnt 'being intentionally awkward' in pictures as much

- his ykw i want a change and idc what you all think attitude in going back to brown, and then into messy--he really Knows he's attractive now and how to dress himself to bring that out (even if he doesnt feel like it all the time)

there has definitely been a shift--i think the fandom has gotten smaller, and a lot of their 'mainstream' audience were dannies back in the heyday bc of the 'societal beauty standards'. so combine many of those people leaving, at a similar timeline to phil figuring his 'look' out, his audience getting older (and the lesbians being Very fond of him), and his consistency in uploading the last few years, i think it all swirls into this current existence where there's a lot of phillies out there and they're loud and proud about it (as they should be), especially cause a lot of them have Always Known but it wasn't the 'popular' take at the time.

i am but a hapless dannie and any phillies who would like to share their two cents/drag me for being wrong pls do so

Hello 👋

Not sure if I can ask this but do you have any moots that remind you of each txt member?

EEE okay I may do multiple moots per member :> I will try and decide with moots I talk to since I can sense their vibes a lil more ! based off of assumptions and impressions!!! ty anonie for the ask, it was a bit tricky but I do love my moots, whether we interact all the time or not, I've at least seen a bit of how they are but these are the ones that stand out to me as of recent :>

YEONJUN:

— @nightlyawnzz : lia gives me yeonjun vibes in terms of the playful side of him. I can sense that when I interact with lia and despite us not interacting all the time, I think it can be fun talking to her! I think she can be cute too and in a way it reminds me of, again, yeonjun's playful side.

more under the cut!

— @junniieesbby : ANGIE! in this case, angie's fashion sense screams yeonjun to me. she's so hot (respectfully) and gives that stronger / intense(?) side of yeonjun, but not in an intimidating way. the petnames and words of affection screams yeonjun to me, idk if it's bc he's her bias but regardless, I think she does exude similar energy to him overall.

SOOBIN:

— @taegimood : this is from recent interactions, but I view mj as soobin bc I feel like they're living their best life. like they can do whatever and still be on top of things (this is also based off of impression and assumptions). I feel like mj has that maturity to them when talking to their moots and I think it's intriguing :>

— @lovejoshua : ilem is such a sweetheart, and so is soobin. like she is so loveable and gets along with everyone ik! she can be calm and collected but also chaotic when the time calls for it hehe a thing about ilem is that she's just so lovely to talk to, I could talk to her about anything! she too seems to be doing her own thing too, and I love that for her !

— @flwrseon : saph is gentle, like a flower. and from talking to saph every now and again, I feel like she can be quite shy at first but she really is lovely to talk to. esp when you talk to her about her interests?! then you'll pique her interest and I love seeing her talk about things she's into, even if I may not know much about it ^^ I think that's such a soobin characteristic!

BEOMGYU:

— @seolis-world : seoli emits chaotic energy in the best way imo. whenever I see seoli on my dash or in my notifs I sense the chaos and the energy she brings is always so bright and fun! I also feel like we don't necessarily talk a lot but it's always fun when we do! and that's something I feel is what's similar to beomgyu and me

— @naomiarai : despite our first interaction being chaotic, I do feel like she can also be fun to talk to. not just that but her works are unhinged in the best way possible, it makes me go feral sometimes 😵‍💫 and that's where the chaotic energy like beomgyu's comes from lmao

TAEHYUN:

— @agustdiv1ne : I've said this time and time again, but ashlee is so articulate with her words, in her works or talking in general and I associate her with taehyun for that. I also sense that realism and maturity with ashlee which I admire :>

— @koqabear : sol is another person who I look up to on this platform. another who is so eloquent with their words and super lovely to talk to. I'm trying not to fangirl as much but they remind me of taehyun because they seem so knowledgable. and that intimidates me sometimes but I find it interesting too!

HUENINGKAI:

— @mapofthemazeinthemirror : I get gentle energy from cee. it's giving me how hyuka can be gentle with others. but cee can also project that hyper energy too!! it's a fun dynamic and I want to get to know her more too :>

— @honajoong : with lex I feel like I get that mischievous hyuka side from her hehe the playfulness and the way she talks is fun in itself. she can be funny and I love her reactions to things. I think the inside jokes are fun OH AND SHE SEEMS LIKE THE MOST HUGGABLE PERSON EVER. I wish to meet lex one day actually ^^

[evansbby]

my vanderpump rules season 2 midway opinions! (I’ve watched all the way up till the Cabo trip aka episode 11!! And so much has happened that i just need to share my views before i forget!

Stassi — i literally love this girl! She is so entertaining to watch and she is such a girl’s girl and honestly her confidence is goals! You can also tell that she’s really smart too and i love how fiercely she sticks up for herself and her friends! She’s literally my fav and also she’s sooo pretty!

Jax - guys I can’t even with this guy… like at this point it’s just funny how big of a loser he is. Like I don’t think I’ve seen anyone exude more pure loser energy. And I don’t know if he’s putting it on to make the show entertaining or if he genuinely is this much of a genuine pathetic loser but the way he acts is insane 😭 like this man is a pathological liar, like even his own friends aka the Toms and Peter are done with his shit. It’s the way Ariana said she can’t even be mad at Jax for spreading shit about her bc he’s so pathetic 😭😂 the way he was bringing the mood down in Cabo, bringing all those random girls. Like atp Stassi is literally embarrassed that she ever went out with this guy 😭 and his behaviour is so embarrassing for a 33 year old man PLS. Also the way he spreads stuff and then lies and pretends it never happened is crazy. This man needs to be studied. Oh and he also has a victim complex and wants people to feel sorry for him and I love how Stassi never falls for it and clocks it every time 😂

Tom Sandoval - guys I can’t tell with him… I still think he’s giving unhinged energy but like… I really can’t tell!!! I can’t tell what he wants, whether he wants to be with Kristen or anything!! I definitely think he did sleep with Ariana tho! But don’t spoil it for me!! He’s hot tho. It’s just the way he straight-faced denies everything… bro the men in this show are all pathological liars!!!

Kristen - she’s really weak. Like genuinely Tom cheated on her a bunch of times and she still went back to him?!? She’s one of those girls who assures her girlfriends that she’s over a man, and then throws her girlfriends under the bus and runs back to the same man who hurt her! It’s just sad and pathetic to watch.

Katie - her hair is so annoying like I cannot! The brassy blonde with her dark roots coming in and the aggressive side part??? It’s so annoying pls. Also she’s kinda bleh. She does get really messy when she’s drunk though. I did feel for her when her boyfriend poured a drink over her head like she needs to dump him! Why are all the men in this show literal trash?!

Scheana - she’s so boring 😭 like she needs to be studied too tho bc I think she’s obsessed with Stassie 😭😭 like she hates Stassie but she also wants to BE Stassie but she also wants to be Stassie’s bff??!? And the thing is, Scheana keeps sticking up for Stassie but Stassie always picks Kristen and Katie over Scheana yet Scheana keeps blindly supporting Stassie 😂😭 it’s kinda tragic to watch. But also she’s kinda weird how she made that gangbang comment in the car with all the guys including her boyfriend?!? Like wtf. Also how she called herself “one of the guys” like pls Scheana you’re giving pick me energy. Stassie said it perfectly, that she doesn’t trust a girl who can’t get along with a group of girls and hangs out with guys instead. Although I do think Kristen and Katie are unnecessarily mean to Scheana.

Ariana - I really don’t like her :/ and if she DID sleep with Tom after denying it, then that’s fucked up. But I don’t like how she also acts like a pick me, thinking she’s sooo much better than the other girls bc she’s that one “chill” girl like no fuck off. She just thinks she’s so superior but unlike Stassie, she doesn’t own it and just comes across as a pick me.

ANYWAYS I LOVE THIS SHOW SOOO MUCH! I can’t believe I never watched it before, it’s literally so relatable to me since I worked at a restaurant for four years almost when I was at uni!!!

[oneforthemunny]

Maybe a weird question but what is each of the Eddie’s favourite comfort food?

I love this question.

modern!eddie I feel like he loves that cinnamon sugar butter toast. like it's definitely a "struggle meal" that his mom grew up making him bc it was dirt cheap, but it hits. like he gets a craving for it every now and then and mean girl makes it for him and he's just heart eyes in love.

cowboy!eddie loves chili. like look at him and tell me he doesn't exude bowl of chili energy fr. like chili and a grilled cheese, especially on a cold day when he's been working all day. it just soothes his soul really.

mafia!eddie is definitely more of a sweets guy admittedly. he loves cookies a lot for no reason. but a fresh baked cookie does it for him. it just makes it all better.

janitor!eddie likes soup. I think he always liked the idea of hot soup just being comforting, and so he clung to it, and now he just loves it. chicken noodle is obv his favorite, but he's become a big french onion guy as of late. you turned him onto that and he's so impressed.

older!eddie loves a chicken pot pie. like I don't know what you want me to say about this, but he's a fiend for a pot pie. bro likes butter pecan so it shouldn't be surprising. he orders it at a restaurant and brielle gets so embarrassed. you think it's funny bc it's one of those things that like you forgot existed but not eddie babes, he orders it every time.

bouncer!eddie idk if this counts as a comfort food, but he's insane about buffalo chicken dip. I feel like that really checks with him like... he gives buffalo chicken dip energy. doesn't like the kind with celery in it fuck no, he wants that shit HOT and spicy. will devour it all in like under 45 minutes.

rockstar!eddie since he moved out to la doesn't get a lot of midwestern foods or even like southern comfort foods (bc wayne is def from the south fight me) and everything's organic and gross out there. he loves breakfast food. like greasy ass diner type breakfast food. like a waffle house?? find eddie munson at a waffle house in los angeles at least once a month, stoned out of his mind, eating an allstar breakfast and a waffle bitch. he loves it.

dom!eddie loves banana pudding. like it's very unexpected of him, but he loves loves loves a banana pudding. the original kind that's cold. he loves whipped cream ;) lol so it's not that surprising but you make it for him once and he's in love??? like he acts like you gave him a kidney.

[lokislytherin]

random lookism q for you! which 2 characters (ideally those who barely have any interaction) would you want to see interact more? :)

hello jann i have so many combos how am i supposed to pick. ur so determined to make me write essays huh /j you know what im just gonna make this jay & various lookism characters that i wanna see him interact with bc he's been missing for so long this is my copium that he's been here all along

jay & mira

they are the housewives waiting for their husbands to come back from the war dynamic, but in jay's case he joined the war as a medic who can also fight on the frontlines bc he missed daniel. i like to think during the period of time their boys were gone, jay and mira became closer bc they were both lonely. think about it - daniel is undoubtedly jay's best friend and literally jay's only friend, while zack and mira have such a long history and the requited pining they have is so intense.

just imagine having to suffer through school alone... hence mira struck up a conversation (even tho she had no idea how to understand jay), and now they're kind of friends. maybe they're lonely bc they miss their boos but they're lonely together now, which makes things a lot better. mira still doesn't quite understand jay, but she Gets the pining, so that's a start. she doesn't know whether to root for emo introvert jay to get with daniel or social butterfly zoe, so for now she's just hoping they'll end up in a polyamorous relationship bc she doesn't want her friends to end up with broken hearts. according to zack (who finds the time to text her whenever he can bc he misses her a lot and his current canon break is bc they're hanging out like the lovebirds they are), daniel has also been picking up boyfriends left and right so the daniel ship might actually have more people than she originally thought, actually.

also they bond over fashion, because mira thinks jay needs to expand his closet. all jay has is designer suits (and the occasional biker jacket) and mira is the god of thrifting and cute fits! if you want the j high fashion boys in cute Normal People (read: proletariat) fits mira is your go-to

2. jay & zoe

once again, housewives waiting for their husband to come back from the war dynamic, but they've got the same dynamic. they are the co-captains of the daniel fan club and they constantly fight for first place. zoe is losing (because she's been away from canon even longer than jay) and she hates it (it's okay. she's realizing daniel is a very good friend, who is coincidentally very hot, but that's he's not exactly boyfriend material for her, for some reason. he's so bestie-coded).

zoe has 0 idea what jay's thinking 50% of the time, the other 50% of the time jay just goes :( so she just Knows he's thinking of daniel and missing him bc yeah. she does that too. it's just more obvious with jay because he doesn't show his eyes and that reduces his expression ability by a lot bc he's the most expressive with daniel, and when daniel's not there he's just _ . not even -_- he's just _ because he doesn't show his eyes so zoe can't even begin guessing what he's thinking. mira only gets him bc she's got the Nice Person Telepathy (it's called years of dealing with tsuntsun zack = pro body language reader)

i'm not gonna lie about jay he's very competitive towards her bc in his eyes zoe has a bigger chance than crystal? mainly bc crystal is so mean to daniel homegirl has 'Men DNI' in her eyes she exudes that energy while jay is hong jay homosexual gay and he's like yo. daniel please look over. hot boy in the area.

jay has never thought of out-sexy-ing zoe tho. zoe's assets are her medium is premium booba (she's only b cup but south korean average cup size is like a small a) and all jay has is his flat chest. even lookism tumblr barely believed in his booba until 2% of almost 300 people suddenly went actually it exists

3. jay & ryuhei

blond 🤝 motorbike 🤝 bathrobe + bath lovers (ryuhei is The Biggest onsen lover and you can fight me on this + jay is canonical bath haver) 🤝 in love with a dark haired person who will probably never look at them the way they want them to.

i hc they actually met once while being on their bikes, but both of them had their helmets on (bc safety first! daniel/mitsuki would be sad/annoyed if they died riding their bikes which is not ideal). ryuhei nodded over like 'yo nice ducati dugati bro' and jay nodded back like 'thanks bro' and it was a moment of Mutual Understanding bc of Biker Language

also i just really wanna know how they would interact in canon? my hc of them meeting was off-screen bc i'm sure both of them have more to do with their lives but what if they fought each other. weapon user to weapon user. kali arnis user jay vs ryuhei with his chain bat. two blond boys trying to bonk each other to death until they realize they're both simps actually. and then they bond via trash talk (ryuhei) and getting triggered every time ryuhei mentions romance (jay) and then bonk each other some more bc NO WAY THIS WEIRDO IS NOT MY KINNIE

4. jay & samuel seo

sanest person in the verse fights complete utter nutjob, but both of them believe that they are the sane person and the other guy is the nutjob. samuel seo's like WHO'S THIS BLOND FREAK WHY IS HE CHASING ME WITH A BB GUN and jay's like GET BACK HERE SO I CAN SHOOT YOUR GIANT TITS RIGHT OFF AS PAYBACK FOR BULLYING DANIEL. GET YOUR ASS HERE OR I'LL RIP YOUR BOTOX TITS OFF AND FEED IT TO MIRO AND EDEN BC 1) GOOD SNACK FOR THEM 2) MY PUPS ONLY DESERVE PREMIUM STEAK

tbf jay's not saying anything he's just exuding Murderous Energy (think jay in ch435) so ofc samuel's confused. this blond twink doesn't speak he's just chasing samuel with a bb gun

5. jay & gun

GUNJAY PARALLELS. THAT'S IT THAT'S THE TWEET

i've got more about the GunJay Parallels in another post which i am honestly too lazy to link bc u've probably alr seen it but i just wanna see the two daniel simps fight each other yk. i know jay's gonna get his ass beat to hell and back but i believe in Protective Hong Jaeyeol and Possessive Hong Jaeyeol rights like this perv is the guy daniel's been training with?? this is the bastard who basically tortured daniel bc daniel wanted to learn how to fight and be stronger??? oh boy the minute jay finds out about what gun did to daniel he'll sic the law on gun. or poison him

bc i believe in dumbhead!gun and STEM kid!jay supremacy.

jay, copying the anime he watched with daniel: お前はもう... 死んでいる！

gun, who received 0 intel about jay and wondering who tf this Blond Bastard™ is: 뭐?! この바보は누구

daniel, who only knows bits and pieces of jp bc he's an avid anime watcher: gun wtf is wrong with u.

daniel: also omg jay hi <3

jay, immediately: /////// <3

(that's him blushing btw)

i also want more interactions with jay and vasco and jay and zack and jay and johan and-

i could go on forever

thank you for the ask jann! wow this is. long

[sunlightandsuffering]

https://youtube.com/shorts/GDHNfzgSFUM?feature=share

i imagine btl mikasa doing this like she’s so hot 😮‍💨 eren’s gonna have a hard time warding off men and women from his baby

omg she's so pretty both ways help! She's like very feminine beautiful with her long hair but when she cuts it, the bad bitch energy she exudes bc u can see the cut of her jaw more! UGH! Help this is my new Mikasa inspo tbh 😂 Eren absolutely losing his mind when she starts dressing in all black trying to look like some kind of biker chic or even worse like him and he's like STOP UR NOT A GANGSTER U CAN'T DO THIS! PPL ARE GOING TO THINK U CAN FIGHT AND I KNOW U CAN'T FIGHT! Mans is stressed worrying about her.

[murfpersonalblog]

I have to interject. I don't want to be rude or nasty, I really want to get to the bottom of this.

How is it not gender essentialism to say that men who wear dresses are inherently the female-coded ones? Regardless of their actual behavior, while clothed in and outside of said dress?

Isn't it sexist & homophobic to attack people for insisting that gender is MORE than clothes & hair?

YES, clothes are fundamentally important for signalling one's adherence (or RESISTANCE) to gender norms. But it's funny how y'all hyperfocus on the Mardi Gras outfit Lestat wore in 1x7 when he ate the baby--a public COSTUME Lestat barely even wore once (which was mostly an ANDROGYNOUS gender NEUTRAL skort, not even a full skirt, as he was still wearing his suit--the gender-flexible king/queen of Mardi Gras--a holiday all about flipping social norms upside down!); while never engaging with the Matador/Killer pajamas & wifebeaters Lestat REGULARLY lounged around in AT HOME when he choked his child & "broke" his spouse in 1x5 (X X).

It is sexist & downright misogynist to reduce wearing dresses to embodying femininity & womanhood, when sometimes it is an expression of societal RESISTANCE for men & women to crossdress--a POWER move. As if everything about being a woman (or being female-[coded) solely boils down to the clothes we wear. I'm a cis woman, and I wear pants & sneakers everyday--AIN'T I A WOMAN?

This is ESPECIALLY nefarious when so much on the convo contrasts Lestat's campiness to Louis as a masculine thug/pimp/boss/etc--as if LESTAT didn't own that whorehouse (which Louis bought from HIM & Tom Anderson); as if they weren't BOTH rocking suits all of S1; and as if they weren't BOTH dressed in COSTUMES at Mardi Gras. Even Lestat in the S3 promo/teaser is PERFORMING--y'all know wtf a STAGE PERSONA is; why're people being so effing OBTUSE?

Lestat PLAYS with gender; it's all a GAME to him. He can do what he wants!

Gender's ALSO expressed in BEHAVIOR, SOCIAL DYNAMICS, & HIERARCHICAL POWER. That's FAR more serious than a silly holiday costume.

Yes, Caroll Cutshall said Lestat's Mardi Gras costume exuded both feminine AND masculine energy. But she also talks very candidly about the VISUAL HIERARCHY OF POWER that clothes ALSO represent--particularly for characters with power over LOUIS.

The same way it doesn't matter what roleplays Loumand had in S2 wrt Maitre/Arun ("Maitre only when it's hot or convenient"); we have the same power imbalance between Loustat in S1, as it doesn't matter how many dresses Lestat wears, or how much he bends gender norms--he'll ALWAYS be the one on top of Louis in the pyramidal power structure. "It's not as simple as choosing a new family configuration. Now I'm your cousin; now I'm your aunt--I am your Maker!"

@the-vagabond-angel SAY THAT SHIT RYAN like not only was it sexist bc that implies that only women clean the house but also it’s like trying to make the who’s the man and who’s the woman question seem deep and profound when it’s rlly weird like why are we trying to make their relationship appear hetero they’re gay @nightcolorz EXACTLY ITS SO HOMOPHOBIC

It's not about saying that all women are housewives, or that all housewives are women--it's about the what the GENDER ROLE reflects about the conditions under which Loustat lived together & apart in NOLA--the EXPECTATIONS Lestat put on Louis & their relationship; and the ways Louis either conformed or contradicted those expectations--LEAVING Lestat alone in 1x3, 1x7, and 2x8. It's about LESTAT'S abandonment issues, and creating Louis as an eternal companion to save him from the curse of vampire loneliness.

No one is saying that mothers can't dominate & terrorize their households. But you cant pretend that Lestat represents the problematic mother--the Medea or Clytemnestra--when he's been projecting nothing but Agamemnon & Jason this whole time. XD

Anne Rice said VERY explicitly that she is LOUIS. SHE self-inserted herself as Louis to represent HER EXPERIENCES AS A MOTHER.

Lestat represents the power & autonomy she RECLAIMED once she'd processed her grief & depression over her daughter dying; and the complicated feelings she had about her husband Stan--she originally named Lestat LESTAN--the T was a TYPO that got stuck in post. Lestat was her husband, and she was Louis.

Sure, we can (& SHOULD) discuss AR's complicated/problematic approach to gender, both IRL and in TVL, but it is NOT homophobic/sexist/etc to point out the whys and hows of Louis & Lestat as conceptual frameworks for telling a story about a mother's grief.

@kaleidoscope-vol2 They are still doing this now. It's super weird people want to put these characters into heteronormative boxes and also believe mothers are never abusive in real life. People have lost their damn minds.

It's not about not seeing Lestat as a contradiction of mothers who are never abusive (which is a fundamentally stupid thing to assume, since we literally see the ways that both Florence (& Gabrielle!) emotionally abuse/neglect/manipulate her sons. And then there's Akasha, the MOTHER of ALL vampires, who's the literal worst).

It's about understanding the parallels/cycles of abuse that are perpetuated by BOTH of the characters, both on each other, and on Claudia:

Louis as the "emotionally vacant" parent who neglects his spouse & child to wallow in disassociative misery as the "unhappy housewife--" and appellation which Louis NEVER denies or rejects, mind you. It's not about what Louis IS--it's about what Louis FEELS; about how HE thinks he's being treated by other people; and what he thinks that makes him: "Who are you, Louis? If there were no me, if there was no him?" Cuz Louis "carries him in HERE!," in his heart/mind. Louis even became more & more like Lestat, ultimately chokeholding Claudia EXACTLY THE SAME WAY HIS FATHER/MAKER TREATED HIM AND HIS DAUGHTER.

Lestat as the physically abusive patriarch who treats his spouse & child EXACTLY THE SAME WAY HIS FATHER TREATED HIM AND HIS MOTHER. Even in the books, without the raw brutality of Ep5, we see how Lestat terrorized his fledglings--and the books explicitly put Marquis de Lioncourt IN LOUIS' HOUSE. Lestat's father LIVES with them, front and center, as the physical manifestation of the ways that Lestat literally CARRIED his father with him!

Neither the show nor us as fans are ignorant or ignoring the ways Louis is an abusive spouse & parent, but you're talking apples & oranges to delude yourselves into thinking Loustat's household represents anything BUT a bastardization of the traditional nuclear family they were trying so hard to mimic--pretending to be normal humans, pretending to be a normal family, when they ARE different, and they (gay vampires) CANNOT fit into societal molds & mores--that's the TRAGEDY of The Unholy Family! Cuz Louis DID try to be heteronormative--INTERNALIZED homophobia!

Folk are more interested in hyperfocusing on Lestat, tee-heeing at his c*nty camp yaasification; rather than listening to what Louis the Liar™ has to say about HIS pain & suffering at the hands of the man he loved the most.

Engage with the show past the surface level, and realize that CLOTHES are just PART of the ENSEMBLE of the socially dictated ways that power dynamics & imbalances are expressed on this show--even amongst gay men.

Remember b4 iwtv s2 dropped u would get crucified by the fandom if u said that lestat was gender none confirming bcus apparently abusive ppl can only be masculine? Even tho said embodiment of masculinity and patriarchal gender roles literally cross dresses and does drag like, in canon. What the fuck was that 😭😭. And apparently Louis is the submissive bottom exclusively bcus he cleans the house? And that’s progressive apparently? 😭 to suggest that Louis is “woman coded” bcus he gets beaten by his partner and does house chores?? I’m just glad the fandoms a little better now bcus oh my god 😭😭 what the fuck

[sehunniepotwrites]

Ahh nice! I’ll be in the Bay area soon for vacation. If you have any restaurant recs for San Francisco, please lmk!

Would love to meet up at the concert but I’m still kinda shy about my identity aha. Especially since I’ve left the fanfic world. But I’m glad you (and honestly probably some more of my old moots) will be there! Can feel the Neo City energy together.

[Submitting the boyfriend part separately bc I think a friend of his is on NCT Tumblr, so could you possibly not include my text here teehee]

So glad we’re both thriving! :))

OOF RESTAURANTS IN SF! Long list of recs coming through hehe.

Here are some of the ones I love:

San Tung - Chinese Food, best known for their wings

Bottega - Italian, good food (love the lasagna and the mezzemaniche boscaiola) BUT they play EDM music which doesn't match the vibe of the place lmao

Boudin - clam chowder, there's multiple locations but the one on Fisherman's Wharf is pretty cool because it's also the factory! there might be better clam chowder options but my family always goes to Boudin

Tonga Room - a Tiki bar I frequent! i mostly go there to drink (Mai Tais!!!!) but i did eat there once! the mongolian beef was delicious lmao; go around 7pm-ish because the live band (that floats on a boat in the middle of the restaurant!! there's literally a body of water in the middle!) performs at 7:30 and on!

The Pots - Hot Pot, v self-explanatory HAHA

Mona Lisa - Italian

Marufuku Ramen

NOW THE BF PART!!!!

He sounds like an AMAZING person, I'm so glad you found a partner like him! He reminds me of a mix between JohnJaeYu??? Like personality wise, JohnJae. Johnny because of the positive confidence he exudes, which is completely different from cockiness, how is outgoing and can bring everyone together. Jae with the class pres feel and popularity. Bed part goes for both those guys up there. And Yuta comes in with the last (and very sweet part!) about his former job since Yuta had that job too!!! Idk who had in mind but that's my lil inkling. Ahhh he sounds so sweet!!!

the thing i think is really funny about sonic’s sexuality is that he’s definitely pan as fuck but also he’s just so much better at actually flirting with boys

[astrangergivingthestrangewelcome]

Okay I would say that these characters are actually not sexless at all like. The Stalwart manhoods. Quincey's a porn cowboy. Like the Harkers are fucking. The good guys have sex. I get what you're saying particularly with all the vamp ladies being voluptuous, but like. Mina's horniness absolutely does still shine out despite the veil of purity culture bullshit she does have to deal with.

As for the count and his hotness... well you have a point, because certainly none of the main characters find him hot, there's always something cruel about him that's a turn off... But like cruel and sexy is a thing that exists, and that's what I think actors should go for with Dracula. Bc he's a character that certainly deals in sex and puts himself in sexual situations. His whole role in rescuing Jonathan from the brides and undressing him in bed like... that's sexual. You can't remove the sex from that scene. His scenes with Lucy and Mina, like they're Not Okay Scenes, he's a sexual predator, but when you read them you're supposed to be hyper uncomfortably aware that he's someone with sexual appetites. Like he is Not some beastie the way he is portrayed in say, the Last Voyage of the Demeter. But other adaptations keep the sexy but imo downplay the uncomfy vibes (never get rid of completely mind you, but that's almost worse bc then you still wind up with a nonconsensual relationship, just this time the narrative wants you to root for it). All I can say is the Dracula in the Michael Pink ballet exudes EXACTLY the energy I am calling for here.

Forever mad because like I DO want a sexy Dracula he is supposed to be hot he is supposed to be seductive and sexual it's in the canon but like! Just make him sexy but not romantic! He can be sexual but morally bankrupt and we're not supposed to root for him. He can be seductive and Jonathan/Lucy/Mina don't have to be seduced like those things can coexist. I don't even understand why this is hard bc sexy villain is a well, well established trope + other franchises have them without them also becoming tragic antihero quasi main characters. Truly what is the issue.

Fullmetal alchemist is so funny to me bc this fucking kid who dresses like the worst emo 2008 hot topic cringecore is literally the smartest person in the entire country. He MET GOD yet exudes annoying atheist “my katana can cut through the Bible” energy. Mustang (his fucking boss) is very plainly is covering for the fact that he committed an unforgivable crime and yet he hates mustang so much it’s on fucking sight. The only time he talks to his crush is when he gets his ass kicked so bad he has to trudge home with his tail between his legs all “winry my arm no workee you can’t ask me why”

[indouloureux]

no bc that drabble about soft sex with eddie has done something to me augie-

i had a (basically prophetic) vision of riding eddie and like holding his hands like that way where ur fingers are linked and ur like FULLY holding his hands and ur fingers are in between each of his and its just so cute and you both can't stop smiling and lszidufhlifuisjks

(i think the brain rot has finally gotten to me, babe)

-jorj👻

18+ mdni NO BECAUSE i told myself i wouldn't write other things until i finished this 20k fluff BUT

somehow bauhaus's third uncle had moans and grunts and skins slapping now. it had eddie's delirious groans, your high-pitched whimpers and the applaud of your flesh as you bounce on your lover's lap with all the vigor you've mustered.

"that's it, baby," eddie's head throws back against the couch, his hair sticking to his bare chest, an ophidian curl covering the demon right above his heart. he watches his cock disappear in and out of your gummy cunt, his hairy thighs sticky with your mixed arousals. "keep bouncing that pretty body,"

you do. with your hands on his shoulders, fingers loosely tangled in his disheveled mullet, your own hair moved to one side over your left collarbone that just makes the right side of your face so ethereal with the glisten of your sweat; eyes scrunched in ecstasy as your plump lips exude moans that eddie finds himself getting harder if possible.

"fuckin' ozzy, eds," ozzy, his own term for god in his own blissful moments that you'd picked up from him. your boyfriend smiles in his heavy gaze, lips lazy and yearning. "feels s-so good."

your head throws back, presents him his own purple-yellow art work created by love bites and starved sucklings. and he finds himself leaning up to press ever-so chaste kisses onto your neck, riding his lips up to your collarbone until he finds your wet lips.

he kisses you. feverish, hot, amorous. in that frenzied moment, he kisses you like you're in a field up a hill beneath the morphing clouds. with blooming flowers tickling your ankles and the ruffles of your dress grazing his knees exposed from his ripped jeans; like you're not both naked, covered in slick and producing wet squelches from your wild sexes. no, he kisses you, righteous in his own want.

"you look beautiful, honey," he murmurs against your soft skin, finds comfort in it. "like...a slayer. slayer of dragons and all men. you've slayed my heart actually. kept it all to yourself riiight after."

"how–c-can you talk so—...so casually while i'm fucking you?" you laugh incredulously, eyes shut with your eyebrows joint into concentration and forced energy.

"its a talent, i guess," he kisses your temple. "i can be blissed and talk about how beautiful you are at the same time, you little devil."

"thought i was a slayer?"

"you can be a lot of things. a lot of things but you're still you, huh. you, the one that i love," he tucks your hair behind your ear, sees the small dollar-store pearl earring that he bought you and swoons.

you sigh against him. "such a sap, babe,"

he kisses you again.

eddie's hands roam from your waist up to your tatted arms, inked drawings he put on you himself that he traces with his thumb until his fingers slither up to find yours and lace them together.

he pries your lips apart in a soft click, a string of saliva coming with because despite the doting moment, you still are cock drunk. you lazily grin at him, flashing him your pearls that makes him turn liquid and melts back into the backseat of his couch, taking your hand into his and placing them on his chest.

even in moments that don't burn in corybantic lust, he finds himself falling deeper for you. with the sun shining through the trailer blinds and gives you an incandescent glow, his thumbs trace your knuckles, eyes drooping when you clench around his cock and he moans. you smile tiredly, bringing your joint hands up to your lips and kiss its back, before you rest them back to his chest.

he feels you clench a couple more times before you cum onto him and he spills his hot seed into you, moans joined when he kisses you again just because, your hands laced like a delicate silk ribbon, sitting between your bodies to remedy your aching limbs.

Ok hear me out-

The smut with Steve,it was about reader's pleasure🥺🥹💗 I mean Steve could have forced her into her giving him a pussy job let's be fr here but he didn't it was all about her

(Ari literally used/manipulated her and took her virginity the first time they met😭🥲)

Like- this points alot about their personality

Or am I being crazy 🥲

Probably am😇

Steve may be dark but he is literally exuding much more BDE 😵‍💫😵‍💫 here let's be honest 😏😮‍💨🫡🤨

Like Stevie boy is not here to play(he will with readers feeling ik they are both terrible😭😭😭😭😭) but slay/stay

But like- may be I'm just like u

I just show I'm Ari girl but deep down in down bad for Stevie 🥹(in general not ref. to wg)

And I loved the moment wher she calls him Stevie

Omgggg it was so cuteeeeerr🥹💗

I loved the moment btw ari and reader when he was ticking her sooo wholesome 😭

But also-

May favs were with Steve him giving her his jacket 💗💗🥹🥹💗💗💗🥹🥹🥹💗🥹

Him finding her keys for her🥹

Omggg omgggg omggggggg so cuteeeeeeee 😭

I just loved them😤

I ship them💗

I love ur fics I literally read everything u write

Honestly I've also joined ur hate-train for Andy

Bhaahahhahahnbhahhabaha

But honestly if u write a fic about him I'll read that too💗

(I mean I did read ur pete fic)

Awww this is so cute! I really sincerely love your enthusiasm for my writing 🥹🥹🩷🩷

Pleasee choose an anon emoji if you want, so I can save your asks under a tag!

Now to your ask:

I purposely gave Steve more bigger dick energy than Ari in Wicked Games 2, bc I HAD to make sure you as the readers would take him as a serious threat to Ari. Already, WG!Ari was established as this hot cocky jerk guy and visually he is ARI LEVINSON and he’s just a god of a man.

So if I’d introduced “Steve🤓☝️” then nobody would’ve taken him seriously lmao. Therefore, I had to introduce “Steve😮‍💨😏” who is all sexy and mysterious SO PEOPLE WOULD TAKE HIM AS REAL COMPETITION TO ARI and guess what??? I think I did my job a bit too well 😂😭😭

Anyways, I love how you really have faith in Steve being a great guy who cares about reader 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹 and you want to believe he’s good but youre also questioning if you’re delulu bahahaha I can’t wait till I post part 3!!!
