Matchmaking | [SKZ]

Where one of the boys sets up his friend with someone he's sure will be a perfect match with him. Except, he isn't basing that off your personality or looks...

Genre: Suggestive (18+) Pairing: OT8 x Afab!Reader Kinks Explored; Breeding (Chan), Thigh fucking (Minho), Muscle (Changbin), Hands (Hyunjin), Sub!Men (Jisung), Degradation (Felix), Pet Play (Seungmin), Spit (Jeongin)

General Premise: One of ___'s friends sets him up with someone he's sure he'll get along with well - purely based off the knowledge that they share similar kinks. He tells them to meet at a night club around 10 PM, and so ___ sits and waits for his blind date to show up.

Chan:

He's a little nervous just to be sitting in a nightclub by himself, but the moment you show up he feels as though his entire body relaxes.

You're polite, pretty, kind - You already have a drink which makes him feel a little better about having one of his own; Even if he's got that Asian Flush going on.

After a little discussion and conversation about why the two of you were set up - Chan ends up finding out that his friend set the two of you up because you also had a breeding kink.

Which is.. how he finds himself pushing up against you in the club bathroom, his hips grinding into yours from behind as he bends you down over the counter and flips up your dress.

He's groaning and sucking on his lip when he fucks into you, his pace not quite quick but harder than anything you've had before, his cock prodding at your walls and kissing your cervix every time he sinks all the way in.

"Mmn - 'm gonna fill that pretty pussy up, yeah? Gonna fill it up 'til you're all swollen and leaking.."

Minho:

He's not nervous but he's also not too highly interested in meeting up with some stranger because 'their kinks match up.'

Until he sees you, that is.

His eyes are instantly dropping to the hem of your little black dress, mouth falling open at the sight of your soft curves and the conversation short lived.

He's going to be honest with you about what he likes, what he wants.

That's how you two end up just kind of... doing shit in the middle of the club. You end up finding a room that's meant for private dances and making out on the leather couch together.

He lets you grind on his thigh first, encouraging you with soft words and resting his hands on your hips to guide you when you get tired of doing it on your own,

And then in return you let him fuck his cock up between your thighs; Your back to his chest, his arms laced tight around your waist to keep you flush to him while he fucked up against you.

"Oh my God," He whines, head dropping back against the couch as his jaw drops wide. "Oh fuck, you feel so good --"

Changbin:

He's.. a little shy. He's rubbing his hands together and smiling when he first meets you, a little hesitant with answering any questions because he's just - shy! He's also a little confused.

Turns out it's a kink you have and something he owns.

He figures it out when you crawl into his lap in the booth you sit at, your mouth attaching to his before falling down towards his throat and then finally - to his arms. He can feel you sucking hickies against his skin and that's when it clicks that you have a thing for muscle.

Changbin sits for a while and allows you to dote on him - kiss him, mark him, grind on him; And when the time comes that he grows impatient, he leads you out to the car and brings you into the backseat so the two of you can have some proper fun.

He ends up locking his arm around your neck, your cheeks squishing against his forearm and bicep as he pounds into you from behind and tucks his head down so he's breathing and moaning right into your ear. Your hands grab for stability on the door just in front of you but you know he won't let you topple in a hold like this.

"You're the perfect size for something like this. Might have to - mmn - come back for more sometime."

Hyunjin:

Hyunjin wastes no time in getting to the point when he meets you. He thinks you're attractive, knows you have something in common, and so he gets you into one of the private rooms as quick as he possibly can because he's tryna hit.

He knows you like his hands just from the way you've been ogling them since you showed up. When he tapped on the table, when he drank from his wine glass, when he pushed back his hair.

So he's quick to tease you with that. Gently guiding you closer by cupping your jaw, trailing his free hand over your waist, cradling the back of your head while you kiss.

He honestly loves having his hands on you because he loves seeing how much you react to his every touch.

Especially when he's dragging two fingers between your folds, pushing them in and curling them carefully to rub against that warm, gummy spot that makes you see stars. He has to bite his lip to keep himself grounding at the way you squirm and grind your hips down against his hand - He's going to come in his pants if he doesn't focus.

"Yeah? You like that, sweetheart?"

Jisung:

Jisung is so giggly because he's so nervous when he meets you. You are - drop dead gorgeous and he's so shy that he's tucking his hands down between his thighs, doing his best to hide the fact that he's already almost fully hard just at the way you talk to him.

Your tone is so smooth and demanding without being loud; Confident yet graceful and - you know you're hot shit. That's what turns him on the most.

He thinks you'll take him somewhere; Maybe make him strip for you, make him eat you out, make him get on his knees and beg for you to let him fuck you somehow. But you don't even leave the table before you're tormenting him.

He feels the toe of your heel press against his cock through his pants and he nearly jumps out of his skin, his mouth dropping right open when you roll your foot forward and your head tips to watch his reactions.

You're a little more bold than he expected you to be, but honestly... he isn't complaining; Especially not when you gesture for him to get under the table. Then, he's on a mission. And you best bet he's scrambling to get under the table and between your thighs.

Felix:

He's not nervous at all. In fact, he's pretty cocky considering he knows exactly what kink you share the second he sees you and the outfit you picked out. (He's scary good at reading people, apparently.)

He scoots close to sit next to you in the booth when you sit down, buys you a drink and gets one for himself, talks soooo smooth to you the entire time he's with you and even throws his arm over the back of the booth behind you.

"So you like being treated like a slut, I assume?" He quips, watching your eyes widen and a red dust over your cheeks. He leans closer, "Or.. are you actually just a slut who likes to be used?"

He doesn't do anything too sexual but he's still getting a feel for what you want from him right away, but he does tease you relentlessly the rest of the night.

Lays his hand on your thigh while you sit together, kneads the softness between ringed fingers, watches the way you get shy when he talks down to you and loves every second of it. And he's absolutely going to be getting your number so he can make you his personal whore the next time you two meet up. <3

Seungmin:

He doesn't want to assume anything too fast, but...

The way you wore a dog collar styled to match your outfit gives it all away.

What he doesn't expect is for you to take it off and put it on him when you two end up in a private room together at the back of the club. He sits on the bed as you fasten it around his neck before he looks up, eyes a little wide and puppy-like. You tug on his shirt to get him off the bed, telling him "Puppies don't belong on furniture, baby." as you make him kneel in front of you while you sit all content.

He's pretty much gone from there on out. He does everything you want him to; He doesn't hold back when he eats you out, his hands tucked down under his thighs because "puppies don't have hands, silly" and practically drooling all over your pussy because he just can't keep himself clean for the life of him.

Though when you do finally allow him to fuck you, he's just what you thought he'd be; Rutting into you quick and hard, barely even pulling out before he's pushing his cock back into your warm, wet walls and whimpering into your shoulder. He might also accidentally push your face down into the mattress, but.. it's an accident, he swears!

He's a good pup. <3

Jeongin:

He hasn't a clue what it is you're also into so after a bit of conversation he just asks you straight up for a list of your top kinks. He's a little surprised by some of what you say, though it does intrigue him -

And then you mention spit. You like people spitting on you, at you, in your mouth, on your pussy, on your ass and your face and all over your tits.

And Jeongin....

Oh, he can roll with that.

He's more than happy to get you into a corner deep into the club, his body all but shielding yours as his head tips down so he can kiss you and mark your neck as much as he possibly can before he dips lower. He keeps you shielded, broad shoulders hiding your form away from any wandering eyes as he tugs your top down and lets your tits spill out so he can spit on them and mark those up, too.

He pulls back up, demands you open your mouth, before he spits onto your tongue and tells you to swallow. He watches the way your face flushes heavy with blush at his demands, your eyes darting over his expression in a shy manner as he smirks.

"That's my good little whore."

Oops. Little bit of possession slipped in there, too.

So I hope it's ok for me to send this but I thought I'd be brave and send an ask as an all time lurker since my birthday is coming up.

My favorite of the stuff you do is anything remotely in the realm of "i know i said just the tip but I can't not fuck you hard now". Idk what it is about that content but it's my favorite. And the perfect man for it in my opinion is definitely Konig. He's desperate enough to make that kind of commitment but immediately break it the he's that close.

But yea if you have anything like that I'd be in your debt... you're amazing!! xoxo

just the tip w/konig 🗡 (🌽 link)

konig sometimes makes promises he can't fulfil, and while a lot of the times it's because of outside factors out of his control, every so often he does it deliverately. he's a good boy, but he has one hell of a horny brain that sometimes takes over.

because konig is the kind of guy to ask you to allow him to get just the tip in, have your entrance fluttering around the mushroom head of his cock and your juices dripping down his shaft, coating it with clear sweet arousal he wished he was slurping.

the thing is, his cock is thick enough to have your eyes rolling back just from the tip. but it would be naive to believe that for his needy ass that is enough. he tried to hold back, he really did - or at least he tries to convince himself of it -.

but one second he was giving you some short thusts that only allower his tip to enter, watching the way your cunt greedyly took him, almost sucking him in. and then, the next thrus, he was balls deep in you. your walls hugging him tight as he keeps abusing your poor cervix with his long dick, relishing in the idea that he's about to cum as deep insid eof you as he possibly can be.

fucker almost lost his balls when he tried to pull a similar thing and put it in your ass.

[furiouszealot]

I want to make an addendum to further clarify some stuff since i keep seeing the same questions and misinformation posted: What about the accounts? There are no accounts on 4chan. The closest thing to that are the e-mail based verification system and the 4chan pass, both of which ill explain after the read more to keep compactness.

What about the feds? There were no feds. I am as heartbroken by this reveal as you are, but 4chan moderation had no feds amongst them. Can't say the site wasn't being surveilled to some degree, but that's just standard at this point.

What else did the hacker do? Nothing. The servers were taken down by 4chan team to prevent further tampering. A supossedly leaked mail from one of the main mods said that they were working on the website and all of the moderation members passwords to access the backend were being changed.

About the exploit? After some reading and a helpful reblog on the first post, the exploit used was reverse shell powerscript, which has been present since php 5.5, and since about 2013. Take in consideration that the current php version is 8.7

Anything else? Some stuff. Apparently there was some sharty spam on here after the first day, but i think they've already got bored? Also i forgot to mention /qa/ got axed from 4chan originally because one day they decided to raid /lgbt/, ironic. /ghost/ is still going strong, although people started to flock little by little, so activity died down ever so slightly.

Now, i'll get some inane babble out of my system bellow, and will add some responses i got from anons to provide further commentary.

About the verification system - The verification system was implemented sometime last year yo prevent spamming or ban evading, it boils down to a captcha that makes you wait 15 minutes before posting to verify your session, either that or provide a mail to which a verification link would be send, and you're free to post from there. 4chan pass is similar in the sense that you have to associate an email address, but neither of this were compromised. Mails used to verify are hashed, payment methods are processed through a third party, and neither of them were leaked by the hacker, since it wasn't in their interest to compromise users.

As for the images. I'll keep any names out to preserve anonimity, which seems fitting regardless.

To help understand: /a/ - Anime & Manga /k/ - Weapons /tg/ - Tabletop games /mlp/ - take a wild guess /qst/ - Quests /s4s/ - Shit 4chan Says (I have no fucking clue what "Jack Rusell" threads are) /vt/ - Vtubers /ck/ - Cooking /vg/ - Videogame Generals

Can't vouch on /vt/ being shit, since I lurked mostly /co/ and /vg/, but I believe it regardless. I'm posting this because I want to insist on what I said before: the bigger communities migrated to other chans, there we're already 4channers in here, a portion stayed on /ghost/, smaller sites are struggling to keep up with the bigger influx of people. I predict things will stay like this until we have actual news on 4chan status.

On a personal note, the funniest thing that has been unearthed from /j/ is how much janitors seemed to loathe the dragon ball threads.

There are A LOT of posts like these, but this is one of the reuploads that made me laugh the most. Bejitabros stay winning.

Can't think of anything else worth adding, if something of value comes up, it will be added bellow this point.

Also I know i wrote below instead of bellow on my first post. Bite me.

All right, I know no one gives a shit, but let me give you a recounting of the fall of 4chan from the perspective of someone who was there and has been lurking both 4chan and tumblr for a few years now.

I'll try to provide as much context as I can, but a lot of images were either lost or im too lazy to look for them in the +5000 reply thread in soyjak party.

Anyways, info below:

So, necessary context: a few years back, 4chan had a board called /qa/, which if you know little about the page, you may think every board is like /b/ or /pol/, which means a containment cess pool of grifters, (you) baiters, incels, and other deranged individuals. The thing is, /qa/ was somehow worse. The entire board was plagued and infested with soyjack edits, board culture was a nuclear disaster, anons were incredibly hostile in there, you know the drill, the big bad 4chan, but this time its actually true.

One day, moderation deleted /qa/, anons that posted there got mad, tried to raid other boards, failed, and then moved on to an altchan called soyjack party, which entire purpose you can guess from its name alone.

Apparently, the boards that allow pdf uploads (paper and origami, for example) didn't check if the uploaded file was actually a pdf file, so postscript files could be used to get access. This is as far as my understanding of web backend goes, sorry.

The hacker claims to have been working on this since 2021, and that he had access since about a year ago, but was recopilating data.

Now, what actually happened when the hack ocurred? Well, a banner of miku dancing with a song that played automatically was placed on top of every board, with the text "/QA/ IS BACK", this was possible because apparently no board was ever deleted, they were just hidden from the public.

A thread was then made on soyjack party, claiming authorship over the hack, and shit went south from there. Anons went en masse to talk there, a lot of weird discussion happened, the thread got the bump limit removed and got pinned, more than 5k posts were amassed on the first night alone. Keep in mind this happened at about 8 pm and most of the stuff went on through midnight.

So, the hacker leaked some things, first of all, the html files for the entirety of /j/ and the email address for every moderation member (important note: the pressence of .gov mails was disproven by the hacker themselves, so i guess there were never any feds), what is /j/? the board exclusive for jannies and moderators to discuss actions taken on the website regarding spam, ban evaders, threads spiraling out of control, etc. Among other things, some of the inner workings of 4chan got revealed, such as the web extension for jannies that allows them to do their job easily, how reports are handled, and other stuff. (Anecdotically, some guy got permabanned for calling anons jews or n-words over a 100 times in the same few threads)

Then, the source code got leaked. Important to say, the hacker removed the part of the source code related to the captcha, as to not facilitate bot attacks on the future, and all information related to email verification or 4chan pass users information also got removed, so all in all users are safe.

What was found on the sourcecode? That it was old, mostly. Most boards used code that hasn't been updated since about 2016, and /flash/ used the exact same code from when it was created back on 2011.

From there, desuarchive, a site that archives threads that die from bump limit, opened a dragon ball general on ghost mode, and thus began what later got called /ghost/, a solely text based thread with well over 20k replies as of right now, where a fraction of the 4chan population took refuge and is currently discussing random things with no particular topic. Kinda hard to read, but its comfy.

What does this mean for other sites? Not a lot, really. A lot of anons already crossposted in 4chan and tumblr already, and the ones that din't most likely wont come here. Some of the bigger/most dedicated groups, like /vt/, migrated to other boards. Various altchans are trying/tried to catch some of the flock of users that got lost, but i doubt it will get anywhere, since soyjak party for example was struggling with just the influx of users that came for the hack thread given its poor infrastructure. Kiwifarms saw a surge of new accounts apparently, but a lot of anons kinda loathe the idea of having to register, so theres that.

Smaller communities, such as generals that didn't get a lot of traffic, or boards on the slower end (say, /ic/, /lit/, etc) will probably vanish or disseminate until (or if) 4chan comes back up. I'd say give it a month, don't get your hopes up whether you want it to stay dead or want it to come back.

Given how many anons are staying on places like /ghost/ or other similar archives with the same ghost posting feature, i doubt it will be as bad as people are making it sound. Besides, the communities that are most likely to migrate to places like tumblr are either /co/, /vg/ or /lgbt/ refugees, which aren't THAT bad. Not every board was like the main cesspools (/b/, /r9k/, /pol/). From now on, either 4chan comes back up in a few weeks (somewhere between 2 weeks to a month is expected), altchans capture the migrating anons, or a brand new imageboard rises from the ashes to become the new go-to site for old 4chan posters.

In conclusion, nothing ever happens, but also don't worry, chances are this won't affect tumblr in the slightest. If it does, you can cash in your "you were wrong" ticket whenever you want, i'll take the L. As a footnote, keep in mind: NO users were compromised, if you ever posted there and are worried for your safety, physical or digital, you are safe. Edit: Forgot to add, if you are a 4chan refugee, im BEGGING you to dm me and tell what board you were from and where are you migrating, if at all.

[dammit-tazmuir]

Was chatting in Discord earlier about Mercymorn, about how John's whole deal is refusing change but everyone else can't help but change over time, etc, and eventually came to the conclusion "it's not that the man she loved is gone, but the woman who loved him is." This spawned further thoughts to inflict suffering so I figured I'd share them here too. 😌

Especially for Augustine and Mercy and G1deon, but probably even for Cassy to an extent too when she was still here, you know that's gotta be such a unique pain…

Seeing this person and remembering vividly you loved him, whatever flavor that might have been. Remembering all the reasons you loved him. You loved him so much and you wanted to devote your whole life to him. But your life has gone on so long, and you look at him now, and everything you know you loved about him is still there. Other things have built up around it over time, slowly, subtly, and you can't ignore them, and you hate them, but everything you admired, everything you wanted to protect, it's still fucking there.

You can remember what it felt like to adore it but you can't bring yourself to feel it anymore, even if you want to, not the way you used to. You can try to convince yourself and sometimes you still feel something similar but it's never the same. You still can't quite bear to walk away, either, even if that's for a lot of reasons. But you see him and you have to think… If you could just clear away the build-up, he'd be the person you remember, and there's such a deep sense of nostalgia, a memory of a time you were happy, and you haven't been happy in such a long, long time… But you can't muster the energy to try anymore, and those parts of him don't make you happy anymore, and you know the one who's changed here is you.

I’m never gonna stop pushing the Travis was Mari’s chambelán agenda

Mari def had the classic charro style XV with the red and white dress (100% her moms choice but she ended up liking it) and her like four/five chambelanes, including Travis, were dressed in mariachi outfits

Her surprise song included something by Selena (since she would’ve been popping by then)

She had invited the team and they all showed up, some of them didn’t fully understand why 15 was such a big deal and Mari was lowkey too lazy to explain the tradition.

Since Travis was a chambelán Coach Martínez was there which the girls were definitely nervous about (especially cause some of them were trying to get fucked up) but they all lowkey came to a silent agreement to not bring it up and enjoy the party

Javi was a too young to be a chambelán but he really wanted to, he showed up to all the practices and learned all the choreography just by watching them.

None of the girls knew how to dance to any of the music, except for Akilah who had also joined to watch their practices, so Mari made sure to request some American music every once in a while. They would have caught on to el payaso de rodeo pretty quick tho had it been released by then. They’d do a dance circle similar to the scene from s1

After the dances Travis would try to hide at a table but someone (sometimes Mari or a random tia or one time Akilah) would invite him to dance and no matter how hard he tried to resist he would still end up on the dance floor. He sucked at dancing but he had a good time, he’d never admit it tho.

After the crash Mari’s parents would rewatch the footage from her XV cause it was the happiest they’d seen her, surrounded by her friends and people that loved her. They’d try to focus on her voice but the noise in the background and the overall buggy tech back then made it challenging. They do manage to clearly listen to the speech she gave, she talked about how happy she was to be surrounded by friends and family, how grateful she was to have that privilege, how much she loved her parents for making it happen, she takes a dig a Travis for his bad dancing but he and everyone else laughs about it.

When her parents receive what’s left of Mari’s body they choose to believe that she died when the plane went down, cause that’s what the survivors told them, but deep down they would know it wasn’t the truth.

On what would’ve been Mari’s 25th birthday Travis and Natalie appear on the Ibarra’s doorstep, ridden with guilt about what happened, and they see the ofrenda they keep up all year round with Mari’s picture. They watch the XV footage together, which makes them feel worse. After that Mari’s parents invite them to stay for café y pan dulce and they just talk about Mari. Her parents don’t ask outright what happened out there but they do ask if she went quick and without pain, Natalie lies and says yes because Travis felt so much guilt he couldn’t open his mouth.

Her parents don’t know Mari sacrificed herself so that they others could get help, they don’t know she’s the reason they got home.

accidental aizawa x reader, established shinsou x reader

cw: nonconsensual groping kinda? maybe secondhand embarrassment. it’s really not that deep. reader just makes an oopsie

You crash at Hitoshi’s apartment after a late night villain takedown, both of you falling asleep immediately after showering together.

After only a few hours of rest, you pad into the kitchen, still groggy and half blind with sleep. Hitoshi is by the sink, back turned to you to watch the drizzle of coffee from the machine to the pot. He’s still in pajamas, old t-shirt and those offensively bright pink sweatpants. His blurry figure makes you smile, and you slink up behind him, your hands quick to slide under his shirt and over his abs, except—

“Uhh…”

This is most definitely not your boyfriend. Similar build, same clothes, but… oh god, oh fuck, that is most definitely not purple hair tied in a bun, but black, and that is not what Hitoshi usually smells like, but it is familiar, and you think you’re gonna be sick, whole body frozen except for your rolling stomach.

“Coffee might wake you up a little more,” Aizawa says, voice low and gravelly and slightly amused.

You can’t move, can’t say anything, just stand there in absolute shock at the fact that you just groped your former teacher, now sometimes colleague, and he’s just acting like… like…

“T-Toshi has the same sweatpants,” you say dumbly, pulling your shaking hands away and taking about seven steps back.

Aizawa glances at you over his shoulder, expression unreadable as always, then turns back to the cupboard to grab a mug, sets it down next to the one already in front of him.

The stream of coffee hits ceramic, the sound amplified in the near silent kitchen. Aizawa remains quiet but moves as if everything is fine, like this is just a normal part of his morning routine. It’s only when he turns and hands you a steaming cup that he speaks again.

“Shinsou doesn’t have sweatpants like these. He just wears mine.”

He releases the handle of the mug when he’s sure you’ve got a good grasp on it, but his fingers still brush over yours. You figure it’s an accident until you feel a gentle but deliberate tap against your knuckles, still bruised from last night.

When you don’t respond, he volunteers a little more information: “I got back from a mission at around four this morning. This place is closer than my apartment. Shinsou gave me a key a few years ago.”

You blink. Nod. “That makes… that makes sense. Sorry about—”

“Don’t worry about it, kid. You didn’t know I was here just like I didn’t know you were,” Aizawa says matter-of-factly.

You’ll gladly take the out. Anything to get your face to cool off.

Aizawa sidesteps you, seemingly having nothing else to say as he makes his way toward the well-loved couch in the attached living area.

Your eyes follow, scanning over his frame in an attempt to find every single difference and similarity between him and Hitoshi. He’s slightly broader in the chest and shoulders, but Toshi’s got an inch or so over him in height. Both have wild, shoulder-length hair, but Aizawa’s is obviously darker save for the few silver streaks.

And while you shouldn’t, you now know that your boyfriend is more defined than Aizawa. His abs are hard, stomach bare aside from the purple trail under his naval. Aizawa isn’t isn’t soft by any means; he felt solid under your hands. He just isn’t cut like Hitoshi. Isn’t young like Hitoshi.

As you watch Aizawa get comfortable on the couch, your gaze just happens to fall on those ridiculous fucking sweatpants again. Your eyes are drawn to his hips, how low the waistband sits on them, and it’s then that you spot one more similarity between the two men:

They both get hard when you touch them.

Moonwater

🐺 🎹 🐈‍⬛ ☕️ Remus is so jealous of Regulus ☆

Remus’s hands always hurt, especially after full moon nights. His bones were tight, painful, and wrapped in bandages almost all the time. It had become a habit for him. He had to give up so many things because of it: learning to drive, drawing, playing piano, guitar, rock climbing, pottery… He loved all of it, from the deepest part of his being. The only thing he could still do was write, usually for his homework. He found the sound of parchment under his quill pleasant, and he liked seeing the ink take the shape of his words. He also wrote for himself, in his journals, in the books he read – he constantly annotated his books. He sometimes tried to draw, and had improved little by little over the years.

But his wrists, fingers, and phalanges hurt terribly sometimes, and he let Sirius take his class notes – the only time Sirius was serious in class, because he knew that if he took bad notes for Remus, he’d be grumpy.

So, when Remus met Regulus and saw him playing the piano, he was consumed by jealousy. It wasn’t so much that Regulus was terribly talented and seemed to know how to play every piece of music; it was the way his fingers spread and moved with ease, flexibility, speed, and above all, grace.

Remus hated Regulus.

The Slytherin was beautiful, without scars on his face, body. He wasn’t a monster like Remus. He was perfect. He was smart, Quidditch Seeker of his team – because his fine fingers could catch the Golden Snitch with ease. He was the best at Potions, far better than Remus. Regulus was also elegant – the kind of elegance Remus knew he would never have. Who would find him elegant, with his cane?

Every time Remus ran into Regulus in the library, he stared at his thin fingers turning the pages of books. His gaze drifted to his fine lips, his focused expression, his impeccably styled black hair. He was so different from Sirius, and at the same time… so similar.

Remus gave up on the idea of playing piano, even just a little. He avoided the library at the hours Regulus might be there, and he refused to go near the music room. James, Sirius, and Peter questioned Remus, but he refused to answer, finding his own behaviour grotesque.

He hated knowing that some things were impossible for him, that his own body refused to stop hurting. He loathed himself, his reflection in the mirror, his voice, his skin, his eyes, his scars.

“Fuck!” He punched the bathroom mirror. It hurt so much, so deeply.

Peter burst the bathroom door open, worried. And Remus stormed out, beside himself.

“Rem–” Pettigrew tried to call after him, but Remus had already left the dorm, then the Gryffindor common room, ignoring the confused looks from James and Sirius.

Remus held back tears and wandered through the castle.

If only he were normal, if only he didn’t turn into that monster he hated so much… if only he wasn’t a burden to his friends, if only he could walk normally, if only…

He opened the music room door, shut it behind him, and collapsed in tears, eyes fixed on the old piano. In a way, that piano represented everything he would never be. Remus was like an instrument without sound, without echo, without tone. An empty shell.

Remus sat on the little stool behind the piano and gently touched the keys with his fingertips. His wrist cracked, and he groaned in pain. He pressed a key softly, and a melodic tone resonated in the room.

“That’s a C,” declared a voice he knew all too well.

“I know.” He didn't.

Regulus sat next to him. It surprised Remus, but he didn’t comment.

“Why are you crying?”

“It’s none of your business.”

Regulus chuckled subtly, not in a mocking tone, more amused by Remus’s coldness.

“Put your finger here,” he said, pointing to a piano key, and pressed two other keys at the same time. “You just played your first chord.”

Remus couldn’t help but smile. And Regulus smiled back at him.

“I could give you a few tips, if you’d like?”

“I couldn’t play.”

Remus ran his hand through his hair before finally looking at Regulus.

Fuck… why was he so beautiful? Why were his eyes looking at Remus with so much… sincerity?

“Why couldn’t you play?”

Regulus knew. And he knew Remus would lie to him. He could never tell Remus that sometimes – every full moon since he’d discovered the Gryffindor’s secret – he snuck out in his animagus form, watching from afar the werewolf, the black dog, the stag, and the rat. So he didn’t take offense when Remus made up a half-excuse, saying he had bone problems. It wasn’t entirely untrue, after all.

“I understand,” Regulus said softly, “but I can show you simple things, where you don’t have to move your wrist or fingers too much.”

Remus tried to control his heart. It was beating too fast, too… irregularly. He didn’t have time to answer before Regulus’s soft – perfect – hand took his and gently placed it on the piano keys. The black-haired boy delicately spread Remus’s fingers, and pressed the key for him.

“You okay? Not too bad?” Regulus asked.

“Not too bad.” ———🦋———

okay, okay… that’s the first text I share here lo (i'm anxious lol) l, hope you like it? English is not my first language, so sorry for the mistakes, I tried to correct it with Grammarly, hope it’s decent :) I like to think Regulus often walks in the castle as a black cat (because it’s obviously his Animagus form lol), and he hangs out in the music room. Maybe he even puts his paw on the piano from time to time lol. And he saw Remus walking in, crying, and couldn’t help but come back as his human form, silently, and ask what’s going on. I like to think he has a crush on Remus and just uses this moment as an excuse to get closer, and my oh my, when he touches Remus’s hand? He melts and feels his cheeks burn.

Work is slow so I'm being annoyed to the void

Forever bothered by the sharp difference in how Aveline losing Wesley is treated compared to Anders losing Karl

Because conceptually, it should be very similar.

Shortly after meeting Hawke, the person they love is subjugated to a fate they deem in some way to be worse than death or nothing more than a slower version of it. Their loved one pleads with them to end their suffering, to die at the hands of the person they know would not wish to seem them languish. And they make the choice to put the blade to their partner out of love and mercy.

They should in some way be seen as mirrors, even interestingly enough happening to polar opposite couples. A Templar and a knight. A circle mage and apostate. Like not that I think it's completely fair because mages are systematically opressrd but like- if there was any like point of comparison for a more pro-templar character and pro-mage character to have a *oh we're not so different, you and i~* moment that'd kind of be the thing to narrow in on

But somehow the writer don't seem to recognize the way these losses mirror one another and treat them differently in a way that makes my teeth itch

Hawke has the option to tell Aveline whether or not she wants to kill Wesley is her choice. You the player are allowed expressly to prioritize her freedom/autonomy in the narrative. This is then reinforced twice as the "right" choice, initially in gaining friendship with her for using it. Then again when Aveline tells the story of her father's death and reinforces how much being allowed the space to make her own choices, especially in connection with grief matters to her. How much having someone hold her hand and say "you're choice" matters to her.

There is no "your choice" option with Anders and Karl. The player can only either encourage him to kill Karl or encourage him not to. For the mages, who have had far less autonomy and freedom on their lives- one of which has just been forcibly lobotomized, the player doesn't get to prioritize their autonomy and instead can only assert their opinion. This is also the case despite, arguably the choice to kill Karl being an even grayer area morally. Wesley on all levels was doomed to die, it was just a matter of a quick pain free or a longer drawn out affair. Being made tranquil is a death of the self, your personhood, but not your actual physical life. But instead of allowing a softer choice that let's Anders choose, you can only assert one side or the other.

Additionally, just like Aveline- Anders narrative has... kind of a lot to do with freedom and autonomy, so it also would have made sense for this option to reinforce that value in him- but no.

Then, Aveline's loss of Wesley is reflected on fairly often and is treated with a lot of kindness through out most the narrative. A lot of Hawke's initial dialogue options are then checking in on how she's coping with her grief a full year later.

Immediately following Karl's death and I do mean immediately- you can talk to Anders about Justice. You can flirt with Anders. And sometimes if you click on him, he mentions Karl didn't deserve to be lobotomized.

All meaningful dialogue regarding his loss of Karl is not just romance locked. But in vanilla game, gender locked as well. You literally cannot "check in" with him about having to kill someone he at the very least clearly cared about- unless you wait at least 3 years and are a man who has sex with him.

And also also almost immediately following that being how Anders joins your gang of freaks- everyone is complaining about how he's too whiny, angry, and a bummer while mages are being actively oppressed and also he JUST HAD TO KILL SOMEONE HE LOVES BECAUSE OF IT

And to be clear on this piss on the poor website, I fucking love Aveline. This is a not "she didn't deserve this care narratively" post, this is I wish he'd have gotten a fraction of the same treatment post.

Hawke doesn't get the slightest option of "Hey, we can talk about the glowing in a bit- are you okay? I'm so sorry that happened, are you okay? Do you need a minute?"

Like I get that bioware hates the dude but christ almighty, can I get a hug anders button in this fucking game

[starryeyedstray]

(cough) I just realized smt, whenever Connor is connecting to an android or receives a case via digitally, he blinks and twitches rapidly—

^ (like in this scene-)

^ (and this scene with Hank.)

I don’t really have a built up expectation in my head but I was hoping maybe you could come up with one :> (edit: thought I could upload this anonymously 😭)

hello hello, tyvm for the ask bc i indeed have some thoughts about this very thing~!!!

so before we dive into headcanons, let's get clear about what the game's canon proposes. this rapid blinking by connor occurs first when he shares his authorization with the st300 and again when he receives a report at chicken feed. so we can extrapolate when he's sending and receiving data remotely, he exhibits this behavior.

do other androids exhibit this behavior when doing something similar?

not really. clearly the st300 receives the authorization, she barely bats an eye. when markus remotely pays for the paints at the store or calls the police, he doesn't blink like this either. when kara orders parts for the dishwasher the only thing blinking is her LED. so clearly, this is a connor-specific reaction to remote data transmission.

do other androids exhibit this behavior at all?

yes actually! the jb300s connor is interrogating at stratford tower rapidly blink when conducting a diagnostic scan. now, what can we presume from that information? well, a full diagnostic scan is quite an intensive process. for computers, it can take awhile because you're having to parse through all the data on a computer. for something as complex as an android to do it in a few seconds, it would take a massive amount of processing power.

i think the rapid blinking may be a byproduct of androids having their processors overclocking (basically going on overdrive). either it's a sort of glitch/bug that manifests itself when an android is processing a lot of information rapidly or it's a feature cyberlife included as a visual cue for humans to know that the android is in the middle of processing something and unable to respond until whatever it is processing is completed (kinda like a loading screen except the visual cue is the blinking).

according to this assumption, connor would exhibit this behavior when his processors are overclocked. but the thing about connor is that he's supposed to be cyberlife's most advanced prototype, right??? so why is he blinking like crazy over simply receiving and transmitting data that doesn't phase a st300?

it's because he's a prototype.

and as much as cyberlife touts him as being super advanced, i headcanon that cyberlife cut a lot of corners too. how else would they just have 10 bodies of this supposedly expensive android ready to go in case he got destroyed?

i think the r&d put into the rk800s was expensive and his software is super advanced, but his hardware... not so much. sure he's got the fancy mouth sensors for crime scene analysis, but just look at connor. he's clumsy (did you see him tumble through that window?? how badly you can fuck up his qtes???) he's constantly fidgeting with a coin for calibration purposes. basically they have this super advanced cpu but it's being bottlenecked by the rest of his hardware.

so what's that got to do with his blinking?

i just think connor's physical body can't keep up with his processing power so you get weird glitches and artefacts that don't show up in other androids. sometimes that shows up in needing constant calibration of his fine motor skills so he doesn't fuck up during combat. and sometimes it shows up in unnecessary blinking for a rudimentary data transfer. he's not quite at home in his body. it's new and his motor drivers don't move as fast as his processors think. he's out of sync with himself so he's not quite the perfect murderbot he's supposed to be (this is also the reason why i think markus who's lived in his body for so long can kick his ass despite being an older model)

at least that's just my headcanon! i could probably yap all day about stuff like this but i've yapped enough. thanks for the ask! love answering questions like this. apologies it took so long i wrote like 80% of this answer and then i disappeared from tumblr for a bit and forgot this was sitting in my drafts. sorry!

[johannestevans]

extremely repressed celibate secretary who is utterly and unfathomably in love with his employer and his employer who. absolutely loves him back but respects that the secretary for whatever reason won't take part in physical intimacy with him or anyone else

so you have the employer having one night stands with men who look just like the secretary or have similar mannerisms

and the secretary in the room and watching sometimes when the boss is focused on the parts he craves most - the slow, intimate moments, hands brushing, kissing

and they never talk about it bc they're both kind of fucked up as far as relationships go, if I haven't made that clear already

[aliceisathome]

And I'm back! Real life both sucks and gets in the way sometimes. SO - lot's to catch up on. First up was The Boy Next World because a. I'd watched the first few eps anyway and b. Boss Chaikamon. Obviously.

First glance it was very much a similar concept to that I expected/hoped Every You Every Me would be and it kinda subverted those expectations twice - once by leaning into the fact that there was no parallel universe just Cir regretting the path not taken after his coma and using all his stalker knowledge to lie to Phu. Then bam! it turns out there are parallel worlds and the two are together in all of them. Plus, y'know, some wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff.

Actually I think this may be my favourite Mame series. She tried something interesting which, OK, didn't quite work in places (why did Cir's scar disappear/reappear if just the mind is different? Does the Cir in black just live in the padded room? Why the fuck did Cir just move out of his condo?) but it was different and new. Of course, this being Mame she also couldn't resist an evil parent (and Cir's mum was a spectacular example) and a conniving secret fiancee. At least there was no sexual assault this time. Actually Cir's dad and Phu's mum were also pretty abysmal parents - both too cowardly to be there for their children. Cir was pretty fucked up but then who wouldn't have been with that mother? I liked that Phu was a bit of a silly bint but also one who was brave and who could stand up for himself.

I also liked that Cir and Phu didn't jump straight into penetrative sex and that Phu's first attempt at a bj was authentically a bit crap* but then the sex scene was devoid of prep, lube and condoms so clearly we can't have everything but hey - you can't beat Boss and Noeul's chemistry.

*although Cir appeared to be an instant expert even though he's been stalking/obsessed for years and you can't tell me he's been practising with other men.

I liked our second couple as well - cute as fuck. Probably for the best that Wim lost the ability to read Jin's mind though - no relationship can survive that.

And Phu's friend Tee may be my spirit animal - gotta love a woman who's prepared to beat down an evil fake fiancee and take on the boyfriend who let it happen. Those friend groups should just dump Achi (idiot who needs a slap) and Rome (utterly pointless) btw.

SO - overall I enjoyed it despite some loose ends flapping around like there's a gale force wind. I'd have liked to see more of the altCirs and altPhus but hey. Now I go onwards - to The Heart Killers...

Thinking about my Dark Moon Magic headcanons

Canonically, we know:

Dark Moon Magic is themed blue and black and sometimes silver, with motifs of eyes and twinkling voids (a bit inferred but cmon)

Dark Moon Magic exists in a cycle with White Magic (both of which are described as being cold, White Magic specifically also being called pristine. White Magic is actually commonly cyan as well as gold and white. Thinking emoji.)

Dark Moon Magic draws its power from, duh, The Dark Side of the Moon

Dark Moon Magic is very specifically described as being treacherous. A word I find FASCINATING contextually for reasons I'll get into.

Dark Moon Magic is fucking Banned. Forbidden. Hard as fuck to learn as a result.

Supposedly, was pioneered and invented by the first headmaster of the Academy. A familiar face, to be sure.

Okay, all that's fun, what now?

Let's do a Shadow Milk roundup!

Shadow Milk:

Is a known adept user of Dark Moon Magic

Claims the Dark Side of the Moon as his home

Has complete control, until Pure Vanilla's interference, of the Dark Side of the Moon

Is, in all likelihood, the first headmaster. See also: the blueberry motif of the Academy, the eye motifs in the stages, various similarities in enemy designs.

Is a notably unstable individual.

So all that to say:

I like to think Dark Moon Magic was banned because it destablized with Shadow Milk's corruption, and after he was sealed using it meant he could influence the magic as it was used. For small spells, this meant minor treachery should the adept not have a iron grip on their spellcraft; your spell to grow the flowers has turned them into sheep.

But also, since you're reaching a hand into his domain, who's to say he didn't also take from you? Who's to say each use of Dark Moon Magic didn't give him a bit of strength?

Now, consider the seal. The seal that weakens after Pure Vanilla used probably the biggest burst of Dark Moon Magic seen in centuries protecting the Ancients.

I'm not saying it's for sure what happened but I do like to think that he inadvertently helped tug the loosening strings a bit.

Also loosely related but I like to think Smilk can influence casters. Talk to them. Like to think he did so often to get them to use more powerful spells to benefit him.

Still loosely related but I like to think the Light of Truth hid Pure Vanilla's soul in the Dark Side of the Moon while his body...got rewound in time? Got reconstructed? Idk. After the Dark Enchantress encounter. I just think it would be fun if Shadow Milk wasn't lying fully. He really did meet Pure Vanilla before the game. Just in brief snippets.

[blorb-el]

hello, hope you have a good day!

i was lurking on your blog (mostly for your very (imo) based clark kent takes - he has been living rent free in my head for a couple of months now but im also not really familiar with older, pre-crisis comics and kryptonese in general, and also 'we shall be free we shall find peace' haunts me at least once a week and i have feelingsTM about it) and stumbled upon the posts about hoping and 'kaoshahrodh' came up as the tag for those, so i just wanted to know where that phrase came from?

;w; thank you!

kaoshahrodh is a word I've been mulling over for... I guess it's been multiple years now. It's Kryptahniuo - the fan-created conlang that became pseudo-official when the CW used it as their version of spoken Kryptonian. The creator maintains a website with information in it as well as the forms of Kryptonian used in the comics at kryptonian.info.

The literal meaning: shahr is the root of hope. (Shahrrehth is the noun form). Kao- is the imperative prefix, and -odh is the present simple verb suffix. From my understanding, the simple present in Kryptahniuo indicates a habitual state (ex. instead of saying "I am a runner," it's like saying "I run" to mean something similar). Except here it's imperative.

It's what I believe the S stands for.

You'll see Superman referred to, by DC and by fans and occasionally in-universe, as some sort of personification of hope. Usually this results in Superman smiling placidly and Midwesternly while giving a speech and then not lifting a finger to do something, or trying to do one (1) thing and immediately getting shot down so the writers can have someone else be useful, or maybe wringing his hands and being very Solemn and Sad over not being able to do something because he has to stay this ~personification of hope.~

I think this is bullshit, and bad writing besides. Hope, for Superman, is not a noun. It's a verb.

Hope is a command. You must hope. You must believe that the world can be a better place than it is right now. And you must believe that your actions can bring that better world closer. That symbol was what Jor and Lara wrapped their baby in as they sent him into the void of space. I don't usually headcanon Kryptonians as literally Jewish, speaking Hebrew, all that, but I think of it as a kind of echo of tikkun olam. Or at least my limited understanding of it, not having studied Jewish philosophy.

Hope is Action. I first understood the Idea of Superman six issues into Birthright. This goddamn comic, written in 2003, spoke to the sickness and the fury and the helplessness that I think all of us feel, sometimes, when we hear about school shootings; rereading it in 2022, it's amplified by the horror of repetitions in the intervening years. One minute ago, I saw a little girl screaming because she was staring down the barrel of a gun. She was nine, and she will remember it for the rest of her life. Doesn't that set rage into you, too? Superman breaks the glass, reaches for a gun, and shoots the gun seller. There's a fury in all of us, I think, when we see injustice. There's a kid in all of us that learned what fairness was and never forgot. When we're hurt, many of us, we want to hurt back.

Superman catches the bullet he fired an inch away from the man's face. Now you will, too. He doesn't kill the gun seller. With all his power, with all his rage, with the absolute clarity of his storybook moral compass, he makes the man understand, on a primal level, just what he has allowed to happen. He didn't fucking sit there on a cloudy sunlit throne of softboy feelgood platitudes and hope that people would be nicer. He acted. Hope is an imperative action.

(In a more... self-centered way, it's also a command to stay alive. There have been times in my life I needed that reminder. Sometimes you can't see. Sometimes you can't get yourself to reason that things will get better, that someday you'll feel like you belong, that people care about you. That's when you need the work of hope. To get out of bed. Someday, if you get out of bed enough times, if you pilot your body through enough days, keeping it alive, if you grope in the dark for help - you will be able to believe that you deserve to be alive.)

Elliot S! Maggin once said something along the lines of: writing a Superman story is very easy, and all of them (all of his, at least) come down to one thing. In any given situation, if you had all the power in the world, what would be the right thing to do? You and I, we're not Superman. We don't have all the power in the world. But we have some power. Kaoshahrodh asks: how can things be better? And how can we act to make it so?

Sometimes I see people saying Nico (and Bianca too) would do really really well in school just because they’re ambitious and smart (and that is true). But I just can’t help to think that’s just not realistic for them to do very well in school even if they do their very absolute best they can do no matter how well they want to do in school their still going to struggle because of adhd and dyslexia and growing up in an age where those things were not even discovered yet and they were called lazy and accused of not wanting to do the school work and not wanting to learn for most of their childhoods.

We see this exact problem with Percy in the very first book in the Lightning theif. We see how Percy wants to do better in school and seriously tries his hardest to get good grades and stay out of fights because he wants to make his mom proud of him wants to find a school that he can fit into and attend more than one year. He genuinely tries to do well. But then we see him struggling to just barely keep up we see him studying late into the night because he’s slower than most kids his age at doing homework we see him throwing his text books across his dorm room because he was so frustrated with dyslexia and sleep deprivation. He still ends up getting into situations with other students like Nancy Bobofit and Sloan in the sea of monsters and teachers like Mrs. Dodds and other monsters and bullies.

And we see so many other demigods struggle with something similar to this. Odds are Nico and Bianca wouldn’t do all that well in school even if they really do try their hardest even if they graduate even if they get straight As across their report cards (which I think is not likely but you know what I mean) they’re still going to struggle a lot with adhd dyslexia depression anxiety burn out because they have to work 10 times as hard just to keep up with the class average same as Percy and all the others (hell god knows I struggled so much in school that I couldn’t even graduate and I only have adhd and no dyslexia. I’ve been trying to finish the math portion of my ged for 3 fucking years like damn)

"The sky above Qira’s sanctum contributes to the fear of the people of Gavel for the mistress. Little did they know that the sky that they see is a powerful spirit of the dead by the name of Gale. Empowered with the use of soul magic after being taken under Qira’s care, she uses her power to protect the domain of her mistress from any intruders from the sky and alert Qira what is happening in the canyon. However her tendency for silly pranks and antics may prove too much, much to her master’s dismay."

Honestly I think Gale is pretty good for what she is currently. Probably the best thing out of Qira content however one issue I have with her is.... There literally not much substantial different between her and other ghosts in wynncraft. Like she just a ghost who just really good at fighting that all from what I recall. Also have a lover but we won't be touching that and it will stay the same. In this take Gale is exploration to the idea of ghosts capable of being this powerful spirits that rival even demons(Not Garaheth, he is arch demon). Just imagine Qira putting on her ghost steroid by empowering her through soul magic by making her consume souls or something similar. Where she become so powerful she literally can become sky above Qira's sanctum and act as its sky guardian and Qira's eye. Her silly goober antics still kept intact and enchance though, so no fear of that. There even discussion I have wtih friends about how she sometime project scary skull above her mistress' place to make people shit their pant and believe Qira is fucking evil witch that brewing scheme to unleash great evil upon the world. Also fun tidbits, in this take she sometime just fuck with Bantisu temple monks by pretending to be the wind itself which cause them to refer the wind as female pronoun.

Imagine entering Qira's place and only to be greet by Gale yet you do not see her until she tell you to look up lol.
