#maybe I'll poll it lmfao

[euclydya]

SO glad deku dogs are a thing . i know what im drawing for art fight this year

[nicovania]

Ever since I realized I had a character type I've been enthralled by these three so I'm curious what will happen 👀

[archeryn]

Katniss couldn't decide

Katniss Everdeen x Fem!Reader

Side eye Katniss lmfao 😭

➵ Gale or Peeta? Just make up your mind, Katniss.

➵ None of the two really stood out to Katniss. She really loved both, but eyes are already focused on someone—you.

➵ Ever since you've met at school, defending her from being bullied for being a Seam kid, even though you lived in the wealthiest part of the district. She's always looked out to you as a friend.

➵ A friend. If you were a close friend to her, why would she choose you over Gale or Peeta?

➵ Maybe boys were just too much for her. Or maybe you stood out to Katniss? Or maybe both? (Katniss Evergay?? Ya I'm gay for her 💀)

➵ Katniss, after finding out she did in fact, had a crush on you and decided: "Option C." B)

➵ She decides to do something about it and gathers up the prettiest flowers she could find in the meadow, to give to you.

➵ You gave her a kiss on the lips in return for her sweetness, and that's when she realizes. You were an option all along...?

∘₊✧──────✧₊∘

So most people from my poll wanted more Katniss content, so that's what I'll upload

I will from time to time slip in other characters for those who want it

I'm sorry for any bsd grammar or spelling mistakes, I had 2 stories deleted I spent like 2+ hours on so sksksmsnn 😞😞

Ty for 6 followers, appreciate it 🙏

And look at this funny AI Clove, bullying Glimmer lmfao

[the-olympics-olympics]

Because of the way the Weird Olympic Moments Tournament is structured, we're going to have a lot of dead air for a few weeks while waiting for polls to finish up. So I decided to do a..

Olympic Medal Mini-Tournament!

Which Olympic medal design will win its own (imaginary) gold medal?

(these are not all of the medals; there's an image limit)

More info and the bracket lie waiting for you beneath the cut:

Some things to note about the tournament:

These are both Winter and Summer Olympic medals. If y'all like this, maybe I'll do a Paralympic mini-tournament later.

Since this is a mini-tournament, the voting time for each poll will be only one day. Check back often (or turn notifications on, if you want) so you don't miss any!

I'll be queueing these polls for over the next few weeks... probably like three or four polls a day.

Several of the medals over the years have had the exact same design, called "Trionfo" on the front and back. It'll be referred to a lot, since many of the medal designs have interpretations of Trionfo or use it alongside a unique design.

Related to the point above: the original Trionfo medal will be in the tournament as "Amsterdam 1928", the first year it was used. The other years the design was used without significant alteration will not be in the tournament.

The descriptions of the designs are pulled straight from Wikipedia and I haven't really checked them against the photos. Fingers crossed they're accurate! If not, I'll probably edit them if I notice lmao

The bracket:

Matchups chosen by random number generator

(please don't judge me for being lazy and using a template lmfao)

The Surprise

Okay so trans pregnancy Spider won my poll - thank you to the one person who told me who should carry lmfao - but it was a close tie. Consider this canon to the little universe but I think I'll try to write the incubator baby headcanons too cause it was really frickin close lmao

TW: Trans pregnancy, mentions of sex, medical stuff

So Ningni was not planned to say the least

Penetrative sex for Spider and Rotxo is...a process to say the least

Rotxo is double Spider's size and lets just say biology is proportionate. Hence, the build up is nothing to rush through and with three kids, it's a luxury they don't get often

Plus, with their differing biology, they never really paid mind to reproduction between them

Sure it was theoretically possible but they didn't linger on it all so much

Rotxo may have thought about a baby of their own biology but it was too much a health risk and he was never sure how Spider would do. He didn't ask, wouldn't, but...maybe he dreamed sometimes

That said...maybe protection wasn't always at the forefront of their minds

Spider finds out he's pregnant after Kiri starts getting an odd sense around him, she eventually visits the ancestors for advice and is informed their brother needs to see a Tsahik immediately

They bring Spider to Tsireya first, not wanting to alert anyone with how precarious the situation might be, and she is the one who affirms Kiri's information

It scares the shit out of him

Tsireya and Kiri keep the information quiet but they won't for long - namely for his own health

Abortion isn't really a thing in Na'vi culture - mating is for life, something that means even unplanned pregnancy or teenage mishaps are between a mated pair. Medical intervention occurs but an unwanted pregnancy is nearly unheard of

Children are a blessing from Ewya - while unplanned or untimely pregnancies may happen, it's not often and it's not like it is on earth. One doesn't have to leave everything behind to be a parent.

Still - come hell or high water, no one will take the choice from Spider

Tsireya takes Anea and the boys that night, Spider pulling Rotxo into the water for a late night ride to tell him

Honestly, Rotxo didn't predict shit, homie got blindsided

Spider cries, a mixture of terrified, hopeful, and sick all coiling in his throat, and tells Rotxo that they might have messed up

He tells him of Kiri's odd feelings, how a woman Kiri didn't know told her that he was blessed, that the next generation is growing, and how Tsireya confirmed he was with child.

Rotxo is thrilled but guiltily so, terrified for what it could mean for Spider and for their family.

It's a long talk about whether or not they have a choice here - Spider hasn't even told Norm or been formally checked out - but they opt that, if it can be done safely, Spider will carry the pregnancy to term

It's not an easy decision - Spider wants the baby, at least, he thinks he does, but carrying the child to term could be a painful experience, dangerous to his body but also his mind. Growing up with intersex being the standard meant that pregnancy wasn't a female thing, but he's human, and he knows the difference

the dysphoria of the coming months will be harsh and he knows it'll bother the limited medical transitions he's been able to make

With Norms help, he's more androgynous than anything by human standards and he's been able to become comfortable in himself - pregnancy will send it reeling back

Then, there's the side of how painful and dangerous a pregnancy might become

He knows how different his body is and he knows that this won't be easy

But...Ewya blessed him

It's what he's wanted his whole life and he won't give it up now

Rotxo will be at his side and so he decides to do it

His pregnancy is the scientific question of the ages that Norm thought he discovered each time one of the Sully kids walked in his lab, but an organic Na'vi and human child is more than a little unexpected

The baby is studied closely, the growth an alarming thing when na'vi size is taken into consideration. Afterall, a newborn Neteyam was about the same size as a one year old Spider

Unfortunately for Spider, this means a good six months of bed rest

Fortunately for him, he has three very excited children

Anea tries to find out everything she can about his pregnancy. Given he has to spend it's duration in the hut, she spends most of her time with him where they can both breathe and she can help

She becomes his little helper - gathering supplies so they can prepare things for the baby, getting him food, books, and entertainment, and helping him get around as the pregnancy continues and movement gets difficult

Wialik patrols the hut, much to Rotxo's amusement, and tries to protect his uncle and sisters. From what, he couldn't say, but Rotxo finds it insanely amusing

Wialik also ends up collecting pieces to make beads, working with surprising patience to start their newest additions songcord with his family. He enlists Astayì, Kiri's oldest, and makes little figures like a child born in the Ash clans would receive. He claims it's to help his knife skills but they all know better

Vipeì writes stories and lullabies for the baby

He's little, only about 6, so Tsireya and Neteyam help him with learning songs and teach him stories to tell

He works with Rotxo too to make clothes, both for Spider and the baby

This being the first baby they had real time to prepare for, Rotxo goes a bit overboard in getting things together

He and Vipeì make Spider clothes to help conceal his chest and make new shawls that knit over his shoulders

They also make a frankly obscene amount of baby clothes and blankets, anything that a human-Na'vi child may need - a bed for the marui and one for the hut, clothes for any sort of temperature intolerance, and toys galore

By 6 months in, Spider is bedbound entirely. He's sick, drained, and craving things he can't even eat. His body is beyond heavy and he relies a lot on his family to help him - it's a lot of time spent with his brothers teasing, Tuk's mischief, Kiri's support, and even Neytiri and Jakes care.

Norm monitors him constantly in the last few months before it's decided that intervention is needed - he'll be in serious danger if they let him continue.

Ningni is born 8 months into Spiders pregnancy, something that was a risky decision on all sides. Quite simply, she was too big for him to carry much longer and her needs were difficult to predict when her species wasn't even something they could guarantee

She's a pale blue, appearing a few shades lighter than Rotxo (something her brothers claim comes from them) with tiny blonde curls. Her hair is starkly human, something Spider fears and Rotxo loves. She combines them in the face in a way they're both proud of, but her eyes are big and brown and neither of their own. Paz had to leave her mark somehow

Ningni is tiny for a Na'vi but frankly appallingly large for human standards

Spider is on bedrest for several months and then on limited action after, but Ningni is thankfully born able to breathe both human and Pandoran air

She's clearly blessed and accepted easier than her family thought she'd be (though most of the clan hopes she's the only of her kind)

Her lungs can breathe both her parents air, her body tolerates food of both cultures, she has the extra fingers of humans, the enhances sense of Na'vi, and the flexibility of humans. Her strength is a bit lesser than a true blooded Na'vi, but she's astonishingly well adapted

As she grows, she's sort of an oddball like her Auntie Kiri was

She's in tune with the world around her but rambunctious and mischievous like both her fathers

She's a bit of a jack of all trades - choosing to do everything and nothing all at once

She's the type of kid that need constant supervision and both Jake and Norm smugly say she is much alike Spider was as a child

Due to Spider being with her near constantly in her younger years, she's very close to him but Rotxo is - very proudly - her hero

[damnation-if]

hey guys, i just wanted to thank everyone so so so much for all the support i received yesterday. waking up this morning was literally overwhelming with how many kind people chose to help me out and i'm eternally grateful. having two more weeks of security in the place i'm staying is literally. a lifesaver and i can't thank you all enough <3

in some hopefully cool news we are fast approaching 2000 followers! i mentioned it a little in the tags of my last post but i've been making tentative plans for ideas on what to do as a celebration... i Had been thinking about doing a side game and submitting it to the orifice game jam (the theme is. very appropriate for this game after all XD) but apparently game jam entries get uploaded by other people to a kind of database where despite it being an unranked jam everyone is pretty critical with their ratings and that's not really my vibe for a silly side-game that assumes some familiarity with the characters already for a follower celebration i guess.

so i suppose i'll just have to make an orifice-themed side game outside of the jam LMAO 😏

i have a decent idea of what i want to do with it... now that i'm not doing the game jam i might expand it just a Leetol cos i'd like to finally use polls on here and maybe give you guys some things to vote on about it lmfao. but we'll see how it goes! thank you all again <3

THE GRAND RESULTS OF THE SEXIEST SKILL POLL

What it says on the tin. I was curious to see what the fandom's consensus would be, so I held this informal poll of which skill from each skill group was sexiest- I probably should have polled for a week, but to be fully honest, I'm just impatient. If someone would like to do more formal data collection, I am all for it. Right now I am running a poll between all the finalists- which you can vote in here- to determine who is the all-time sexiest skill, so do that after you read these results : ) To everyone who voted, thank you for your valuable input! We got 698 votes overall in intellect, 698 in psyche, (balance!) 744 in physique, (expected, knew physique would be controversial) and 666 (underappreciated gang) in motorics. So the sample size is a touch skewed, but what are you gonna do? Let's crack into these ratings! I'll set up each placement with how many votes they got and reasonings for why they placed there- from both me and those who offered their own opinions (thank you to everyone who did that by the way, extremely valuable input.) plus their items that offer stat bonuses (which I think is fair game to help determine sexiness). Also if the pronouns surprise you I'm just using the headcanons that I have lmfao sorry I'm scrambling the genders of these brain beasts and there is nothing you can do about it And remember, the real winner here is… Harry, because he gets to have all 24 of these sexy singles rattling around in his brainspace. Or that makes him a loser. Up for debate. Anyway.

INTELLECT RESULTS: Coming in at number 6, with 5% of the votes (35 overall)… Logic. Oof. The absolute lowest ranked out of ALL the skills, what a way to start. Sorry, man. Maybe he's just too clinical for his own good, maybe it's because he seems a little unapproachable, or maybe he just doesn't have that special something. The unfortunate visual comparison to Measurehead's portrait doesn't help out. Not unattractive by any means, but he doesn't have the sex appeal. Logic is the opposite of passion, after all. It's hard to imagine him ravishing anybody- just quick, efficient, not very hot. Would also be hard to kiss him what with the shifting face-pieces. His stat is boosted by FALN "Pipo" Pipo (+2), Samaran Conical Hat (+1), Flip-up Glasses The Auditor (+1), Interisolary Dress Shirt (+1), Korojev Jacket (+1). This outfit is a disaster, I'm sorry. The conical hat alone is enough to ruin it. You have so many options and all of them are bad. This really does put the L in Logic. REASONS YOU VOTED:

i chose logic because. idk i saw someone draw it full body once and thought that he looked very fuckable

(that was it that was the only reason for Logic given lmfao) Coming in at number 4-5, with a tie! Already! 9%, 63 votes each, we have Encyclopedia and Rhetoric! Honestly, I can see it. Encyclopedia is very knowledgeable, you definitely couldn't make the argument that he would be inexperienced. Knowledge is hot! On a purely aesthetic level too, he's got a nice face. Very kissable lips. But that's not enough to carry you into the Sexy category. Where's the spark? The zest? Sure, he knows a lot, but is he capable of executing what he's studied? His stat is boosted by Dick Mullen's Hat (+1) and Mega-Bino's Prescription Lenses (+2). Could look good? Maybe? And Rhetoric. Right off the bat, he is a comrade, so that is pretty sexy. Rhetoric can talk the talk, but we can't be sure they can walk the walk. We can see what that mouth do, also, but he looks a little teethy for my taste. Being opinionated can be very attractive, but it can also get grating. Dirty talk could turn into a debate. Unless that's your thing, it could kill the mood. They can't quite make the cut here, at least for me. His stat is boosted by Medal The Setting Sun (+1) and White Polo Shirt (+1). Doesn't really scream "sexy" to me. REASONS YOU VOTED:

encyclopedia#knows what i know bb

encyclopedia#i mean look at his hair

rhetoric for the aggressive politics#having an argument really does it for me

rhetoric is literally sucking a dick

"Rhetoric because I like it the most. I don't know if it's sexy in the classical sense, but I like someone who can be reasoned with and is willing to work things out with you. Resistant to bullshit. That's hot." Coming in at number 3, with 21% of the votes (147 overall) we have Visual Calculus! I'll be honest- this one surprised me. There were a lot of Viscalc stans in the tags and I thought he would pull through, but nope, he placed exact middle. He's got a lot going for him! The perfect intersection between art and logistics. Factual, but not pretentious. On an aesthetic level, they really do look great- strong nose, extremely fun abstract elements, full lips, those just barely visible eyes, dark and mysterious… be still my heart! And those skills of determining what works where… well, I don't have to explain it. I think the only reason he didn't win was because our next two contenders were especially strong. His stat is boosted by Neat Office Shades (+1) and RCM Commander's Jacket (+1). Hot damn! Not bad! They could pull that look off. REASONS YOU VOTED:

I picked visual calculus but I was surprised to see how many other people did too#I guess… it just feels more tangible? Like it interacts with the physical world?#idk if that explanation is easy to interpret correctly but it#'s the best I've got

vis calc but this one was difficult#vis calc is just so calm and factual and like. down to business.

visual calc draws so beautifuly and has sick bgm in its action scenes

encyclopedia is my BOY but vis calc is my lover

"Voted Visual Calculus because he's good at what he does and doesn't make a fuss. He reconstructs crime scenes and doesn't start any drama." "I picked Visual Calculus, even though Encylopedia is by far my favorite. Encyclopedia isn't sexy, he just makes me smile. Similarly Drama isn't sexy, he's just funny. I considered Conceptualization, but his tendency to be pretentious is a total turn-off. But Visual Calculus… those moments of perfect precision when the lights dim and the focus narrows? Delicious. THAT is sexy" "Visual calculus, there’s just something to him that makes him alluring" (And probably the most compelling reasoning….)#visual calculus is gonna find the angle of the prostate#or g spot Coming in in second place, with 27% of the votes (188 overall) we have Conceptualization! I think Conceptualization deserves second place. She's a romantic. He's creative. An artist, a poet, a visionary. Visually, she's enchanting- the suggestion of a human form, softer than Viscalc but just as mysterious. He can wine and dine you, have a good time with you, but most important of all- he could surprise you. Conceptualization would know how to get freaky with it, I think. You could take them by the hand and kiss their knuckles, which they would be extremely appreciative of. This is someone that has taste. The portrait parallel to the Smoker on the Balcony also helps. Her stat is boosted by Saramirizian Lounge Jacket (+1 and White Satin Shirt (+1)- worn unbuttoned, of course. Now THAT is sexy. REASONS YOU VOTED:

conceptualization i like artists :

conceptualization whore

conceptualisation#gotta understand what you want baybee

conceptualization is the king

oh this one was tough#vis calc has the best writing imo#but visually…conceptualization wins

And our winner for sexiest Intellect skill, with 29% of the votes (202 votes overall) is…. DRAMA! The thespian himself! And my own personal vote, so I'm happy he won. Let's be real. He's got the passion. He is distinct, charming, funny, and the way he speaks! Getting called "my liege"? That was enough to push him into first for me, nicknames are too good. You know the roleplay would be insane. Insane. Aesthetically, many faces? Many eyes and mouths? I yield the remainder of my time. I can't be normal about Drama. Not only is he a delight that's just full of personality, they're hot. His stat is boosted by Leather Jacket Pissfaggot (+1), Insane Mesh Tank Top (+1), Party Dragon's Silk Robe (+1), Bow Knot (+2) Need I even say more? The mesh tank top on its own would have been enough, but the party dragon's silk robe? The Pissfaggot jacket? Too perfect! REASONS YOU VOTED:

drama literally calls you sire there's no competition

obviously drama… the way it's speaking? you know it

it was a TOUGH pick between drama & conceptualization but i had to pick drama#obviously the artsy ones have an edge as far as sexiness goes. drama wins bcus like the drama outfit is the#slutty ass robe and mesh tank top like. drama knows whats up PSYCHE RESULTS: Coming in at number 6, with 9% of the votes (63 overall) we have… Suggestion. Oh, Suggestion! I really did think you would rank higher! Hell, even in your official description, you were made to "charm men and women." I'm so sorry that didn't happen this time around, champ. They're all about sweet-talking and persuasion, and is undeniably a smooth talker, but if that's all you have, then there isn't much else to offer. Visually, it feels like he's…. missing something. If the brain stem-roots look more like tentacles, you KNOW he would be more popular. Honestly, I think Suggestion is just generally overlooked. He's like Rhetoric and Savoir Faire's lesser paid-attention to cousin- part of the persuasion gang. It could also just be that there are some heavy hitters in Psyche, and someone has to be last, so it may as well be him. Sorry, bud. I'd give your weird brain orb a little peck. His stat is boosted by Signal-Blue Naval Coat (+1), Interisolary Suit Jacket (+1)- the suit jacket isn't bad, but the naval coat doesn't exactly say "seduction". REASONS YOU VOTED: suggestion#gotta get what you want

SUGGESTION!#a smooth talker is just objectively sexy#de

Coming in at number 5, with 10% of the votes (69 overall, nice) we've got Authority! Man, this was my vote. I was surprised to see how low he placed. I get it though, honestly. All about intimidation and assertion, that can get overwhelming pretty fast. He also probably wouldn't take kindly to having the dynamic flipped around on him- couldn't switch it up, it could get stale fast. And those eyes… not exactly dreamboat material. Having someone big and strong push you around isn't everyone's cup of tea, especially if, let's be honest, that big strong guy is kind of an asshole. Well, at least he know he's not closed off to the idea of putting stuff up the butt- so long as it has something to do with honor! His stat is boosted by Fairweather T-500 Greaves (+2) and RCM Lieutenant's Cap (+1) Cool boots! And I like the hat! I really do like the hat… REASONS YOU VOTED:

authority sorry because i like being told what to do lol

"authority - kim" Coming in at number 4, with 11% of the votes (76 overall) we have Esprit De Corps! Esprit De Corps was one that I had a difficult time finding the appeal of, but honestly, I can see it. The ghostly apparition and blending of facial features certainly is memorable and unique in the aesthetic department. There's something to be said here is that there's many of them-you'll never be alone, for sure, and that kind of intimacy and companionship is sexy. Maybe there could be a bit of a voyeurism thing going on, peeking into the lives of other officers… much to consider. Who says you should keep work and pleasure separate? Have fun with those handcuffs and leather boots! Their stat is boosted by RCM Commander's Jacket (+1), RCM Patrol Cloak (+1), Disco-Ass Blazer (+1). Fuck YES! All iconic, all good looking. REASONS YOU VOTED:

edc because um. um. because uhhhm#well#warm smile emoji

esprit de corps#theres more of them and they know me the best uwu

esprit de corps#sorry I love being close to Kim#he’s my everything

Coming in at number 3, with 18% of the votes (126 overall) is Empathy! Another situation where I'm surprised they didn't rank higher- but again, our next two competitors are tough competition. Empathy is undoubtedly lovely. TLC is their middle name. Get ready to feel doted on, pampered, etc. etc. They're attentive, considerate, would know where all those sweet spots are, for sure- but honestly, I think they would be stone. It would be all about you, and unless you're a pillow princess, I can see that being unsatisfying. Aesthetically, they are a treat to look at. Those softly shut eyes, the long fingers folded over broad shoulders… they're simply warm and welcoming! That's probably why they didn't claim first- they don't have that spark. Doesn't exactly scream "sexy" to me, but if you think being with them wouldn't be the most pleasant thing in the world, you can hop off my blog. Their stat is boosted by Army Surplus Winter Scarf (+2), Mesque Banger's Red Brogues (+1), Jamrock Biker-Cop Sunnies (+1), Pinball Maker's Coat (+1). Again- not sexy, but for sure nice to look at. REASONS YOU VOTED:

empathy can know that someone is so horny they could die

empathy is my main bitch I pick it every run I play#empathy is so hot

close call between empathy and inland empire but i have to pick empathy…#he's just :((( he notices…..

though close second is empathy#love his soft voice

Coming in at number 2, with 25% of the votes (175 overall) is… Volition! The ultimate good guy. Extremely sane. Volition is the voice of reason in a room full of 23 unhinged idiots. You know he's got the willpower, the drive, the control to make it happen, and that level of competence is alluring. Say what you will about him, but he would know what to do. He's got that crown for a reason- dude is a king, and a good chunk of people in my notes know it! That is pretty sexy- but at a certain point, sanity can get boring. There will be care there, he can get pretty bog-standard. Volition would fuck you like he respects you, every time, which isn't always what you'd want- that doesn't keep him from being the kind of guy you could take to meet your parents. Whatever this guy does to you will DEFINITELY be a morale boost, even if it is pretty vanilla. His stat is boosted by Eight-Eyed Teratorn Tie (+1) and Fairweather T-500 Cuirass (+1). Who isn't a fan of a guy in armor? REASONS YOU VOTED:

but volition yeah. hot damn

volition. easy.

volition. sorry. when volition went ‘good theory you have there. would be a shame if something happened to it’ like. yeah. made it for me

all of them#but volition is my love

volition my beloved

volition#I mean come on it’s him!#I love him he always got Harry’s back#plus he can be pretty funny too with his dry scarcasm

volition will treat you right idk what else to say#probably really good with the praise kink lmao

"Volition. I like the strong will." "I picked Volition, but honestly I don't think sexy is a fitting descriptor for any of these ones. Suggestion was my first thought, but honestly I find his persona pretty goofy. I love Inland Empire, but he evokes more wistfulness than anything else. Even Volition isn't sexy to me, really - he's just compelling. But the quiet tragedy of willpower overwhelmed by circumstance is as close to sexy as this bunch gets, imo" (I think this is EXTREMELY accurate and I fully agree.) And our winner for sexiest Psyche skill, with 27% of the votes (188 votes overall) is…. INLAND EMPIRE! It was pretty close between Volition and Inland for a while there, but our favorite little petri dish pulled through. A dreamer! Enchanting in their language, absurd in all the right ways. It would always be new and exciting with Inland. Maniac Pixie Dream Skill, and I mean that in the best way. So puzzing and interesting, I want to see what would happened if I tried to smooch their… face? Don't know what to call it. Honestly, I think a lot of object-head people voted in this poll. No shame. Hard to go wrong with whatever's going on here, it really does work. Talk about fantasy made real! Their stat is boosted by Sunglasses Sub-Insulindic Rendezvous (+1), Horrific Necktie (+1), Eight-Eyed Teratorn Tie (+1) The Horrific Necktie himself! How could you not trust a glowing endorsement like that? REASONS YOU VOTED:

hear me out… yes they’re all lil freaks HOWEVER#inland empire#inland empire will show u other worlds#will take u places u didn’t know u could go!!

inland empire baby girl

inland empire forever baby

Inland Empire#Something which understands both itself and you on a fundamental level

PHYSIQUE RESULTS: Coming in at number 6, with 5% of the votes (37 overall) we have Endurance. Not too shocked that Endurance ranked so low. Sure, he's all about persevering and enduring, so you could get real tantric with him- that is, if you ever even got to that place with him. He's a mouthpiece for facism, he hates women… not sexy. Not sexy at all. Repugnant, even. You'd have to focus entirely on his buff bod in order to get any sex appeal out of him, and even then, that's not easy! The geometry of the body in his portrait is a bit difficult to decipher…. is that one big pec right in the center? What's the thing where his head should be. Hard-body types are all the rage, but this one could do with a little softness. For someone so strong, he really is floundering a bit. His stat is boosted by the FRITTTE Plastic Rain Coat (+1)… and thats it. Just a raincoat. Endurance, come on, man. REASONS YOU VOTED:

but wow I'm shocked endurance is so low (wasn't even someone who voted for endurance. just the only time someone talked about him.)

Coming in at number 5, with 8% of the votes (60 overall) we have Physical Instrument. Another instance where I'm not too surprised. Dude just doesn't have the special sauce- he's just fuckmuscle. Yeah, he's got the strength, he's got the power, but I think if you couldn't keep up with him, he'd leave you in the proverbial dust. (also i'm afraid he would keep up the "coach" talk in bed.) The way he talks is degrading, and not in the fun hot way. Not very sexy. Undeniable prowess though! His stat is boosted by FALN Modular Track Pants (+1), T-Shirt Man From Hjelmdall (+1), White Tank Top (+1) If you're into the sport aesthetic, then coach is gonna make you sweat. REASONS YOU VOTED:

HOW ARE YALL SLEEPING ON PHYSICAL INSTRUMENY

physical instrument baybee

difficult#I picked physical instrument because I'm really feeling the muscular body presence but its actual voice is definitely not the sexiest

electricrochemistry is too much about you and will make you nut immediately. you need physical instrument to fuck. motion in the ocean.

Coming in at number 4 with 9% of the votes (67 overall) we have Half-Light! Gonna be real with you. I didn't understand any of the appeal at first- in fact, I thought this guy would be dead last. But then I thought about it more- the thrill of the chase, fear and pleasure, the adrenaline rush… yeah. Okay, I get it. Half Light has got a look in his foggy eyes and gritted teeth that says he has nothing to lose, and he's gonna bust every nut like it's his last. Fight, flight, or fuck. Doesn't hit every base for what makes something sexy, but what he does have is undeniable. It's raw, it's primal, and it can be pretty hot. His stat is boosted by Fairweather T-500 Helmet (+1), FALN Faln Windbreaker (+1), Leather Jacket Fuck the World (+1), FALN Ultra Series Gloves (+1), Itchy Pants (+2). A very interesting outfit. REASONS YOU VOTED:

half-light my ancient greek speaking boy…

listen. i know it should be electrochem or shivers#but half light 🤤🤤🤤

Coming in at number 3 with 12% of the votes (89 overall) is Pain Threshold! Come on, y'all. You know why he's here. How in depth do I need to go with this one? A sadomasochist's dream. Someone who's able to dish it out as hard as they can take it. With this one, it's pure physicality. While BDSM can be very emotionally intimate, I get the feeling he's not feeling the burn because he wants to get closer to you. One final word: penetration. His stat is boosted by FALN Faln Windbreaker (+1), Mesque Banger's Silk Scarf (+1), Fairweather T-500 Cuirass (+1). Not gonna lie. That fit kind of slays. REASONS YOU VOTED: "Pain threshold because don’t worry about it"

pain threshold because I’m a masochist lol

it's literally pain threshold guys

Coming in at number 2 with 28% of the votes (208 overall) we've got Electrochemistry! Echem and our finalist were fucking neck and neck for so long, it was a sight to behold. He's a fan favorite, competing against another fan favorite. Unfortunately, (and shockingly!) Electro did not come out on top- but that doesn't mean they aren't a veritable powerhouse of sex. A creature made to indulge! He's emblematic of all things hedonistic, the pursuit of pleasure, literally the one that drives Harry to drink and smoke and fuck like it's his only purpose. He is down to clown until he's in the ground. You KNOW they would be into just about anything you put in front of them. I don't have to explain why he's sexy. Also, tentacles? Tentacles. We've all just collectively agreed that those are tentacles. His stat is boosted by Fingerless Gloves (+1), Flare-cut Trousers (+1), Pour L'Homme Labourer Jeans (+1), Shades of Self-Destruction (+1), Party Dragon's Silk Robe (+1) God damn! His outfit literally includes jeans that make your ass look better. It doesn't get more clear than this. REASONS YOU VOTED:

echem of course. do i even need to elaborate

electrochem and shivers rank equally to m

electrochemistry#i would eat his he/him pussy<3

i picked electrochemistery because tentacles and also it's literally the sexy skill

look I really like shivers but I love electrochemistry an obviously unhealthy amount

And our winner for sexiest Physique skill, with a whopping 38% of the votes (282 votes overall) is… SHIVERS! Well, Revachol loves us, and we sure do seem to love her back. It's hard to formulate just what Shivers is- she's a city, she's a feeling, she is the rain on the pavement, she is the wind on the back of your neck, she is empty apartments and dilapidated docks, she is people and animals and plants- but most important of all is that she is sexy. Her voice? Gorgeous. The open-endedness of it all, of what she looks like, how she appears, the idea that she surrounds you and truly does care for you- there's no other way to say it. It gives you shivers. That chill down your spine… that's hot. That's why I personally picked Shivers. An eldritch thing, unknowable and vast, loving me? I'll swoon. You'd be cared for, and being cared for is sexy. You'd never be alone. She'd be all around you, guiding you, knowing you intimately, because you are a part of her. And as for the sexual aspect of it… completely fucking unpredictable what would go on there, and you know what, I'm willing to dive headfirst into that mystery. Yeah, I'll fuck a city. Sounds good. Her stat is boosted by RCM Patrol Cloak (+1), Polar Anorak (+1), Scented Scarf (+1), T-Shirt Man From Hjelmdall (+1). All these clothes will keep you warm. I like to think the t-shirt is like a girlfriend t-shirt you stole from her. Cute! REASONS YOU VOTED: "shivers is like dating an ancient deity" "I picked Shivers, and this was actually the easiest vote for me to make. Of course it's Shivers! Physical Instrument is my favorite physique skill but it's because he's funny, not sexy. Electrochemistry is like a combination of Suggestion and Volition to me - silly and also sad. But Shivers is such a fascinating, strange, attention-grabbing presence. The drama of it all!!! Not Drama drama, but rather drama as a byproduct of magic. It's incredibly sexy"

i think shivers could take good care of you..

SHIVER SWEEP#ive never wanted to sleep with The Wind so bad man i swear to god

shivers#source: she lives in my brain

shivers#knows how to make me shiver owo

shivers#hands down it’s shivers#she is the voice of the city#I NEED YOU. YOU CAN KEEP ME ON THIS EARTH. BE VIGILANT. I LOVE YOU.

shivers. because city voice hot

where the hood where the hood where the hood at

electrochemistry you’re good but I will cut you down in shivers’s name

shivers cause revachol is. kind of a milf.

SHIVERSSWEEP#the city loves you. the city is part of you. you belong to each other so irrevocably#a huge complex system of nerve endings--of buildings of ruins of all that is gone and all that is left--every bit of it tuned in to you#a radio signal so great in scale#you just have to listen to it. to let that love (that understanding) wrap around you#the city lives because you live. broken and rotten but alive still. & it wants you to survive#also setting as a character is one of the sexiest concepts ever so. that helps.

SHIVERS SWEEP#(everyone who cares about de is in love w revachol/shivers and also is a lesbian gender neutral)

electrochemistry is the obvious option STRAY FROM THE PATH!!!#it’s shivers me timbers!!!

(also reading everyone in the tag going SHIVERSWEEP was really funny lmfao) MOTORICS RESULTS: Coming in at number 6 with 10% of the votes (66 overall) we've got Reaction Speed. I feel like Motorics as a skill group already kind of get shafted. They all kind of blur into each other- and speaking of blurring, Reaction Speed is unfortunately at the bottom. Quick to act and quick to talk, RS is all about making things happen fast. It's hard to think about "speed" and "sex" and not think "premature ejaculation". Poor fella just doesn't have much going on for him- any features we could have deemed attractive are out of focus. If you look close enough, you can see that his front-facing face does actually have a nice smile. Aw. I feel kind of bad for him. If only he wasn't darting around so much, I could give him a little smooch. Despite the fondness I feel, none of it could be considered sexy. His stat is boosted by Orange Bum Hat (+1), Royal Carabineer Pants (+1), FALN Ultra Series Sneakers (+1). Honestly? Kind of a fit. I'll throw you a bone there, bud. REASONS YOU VOTED:

ya'll mofukas not turned on by reaction speed are fucking lying(RS baby I am so sorry this is just the only thing someone said about you except someone saying you were " a close second" and I couldn't leave this section blank I'm so sorry) Coming in at number 4-5, another tie, with 14% of the votes (93 votes each) is Hand/Eye Coordination and Perception! It felt like H/E would rank higher, but honestly, tied for 4th/5th feels right. Undeniably good with his hands- that's his whole deal. Hands down (ha ha) he's got the technique! Not to mention, all those fingers, six fuckin pairs of hands to use… plus, Hand/Eye is canonically the jerk-off stat. By all accounts, he's got the resources, but again as with many of these skills, he doesn't have the spice. Okay, you've got the abilities- now make us want to see them in action! If only he were a bit more remarkable. Sorry, Handy. Get a bit more swagger and we'll give you another go of it. His stat is boosted by Pinball Maker's Coat (+1), FALN Arrower Shirt (+1), FALN Ultra Series Sneakers (+1). On the other hand, Perception has the opposite issue. She is all about noticing things. Attentive, primed to take in the senses that the world can afford to her. Where's the execution? We know she will notice how you're feeling and what you want, but what will she be able to do about it? Her appearance is interesting, foggy pillars of smoke coming from where her eyes and mouth would be, but honestly, that would make kissing kind of hard. Unless you've into having smoke shotgunned into your mouth constantly. In that case? Hot. I want to give her a little leg up just because of that. Her stat is boosted by Amphibian Sports Visor (+1) and Franconigerian Cavalry Boots (+1). Froggy visor and bear boots… definitely a good look, but not really a hot one. REASONS YOU VOTED:

as a pianist and a visual artist im a big fan of hand eye coordination

hand eye cuz i always forget to dump points in that stat and that's what my brain told me to say

h/e c. not because of the shooting guns and shit. but because. yk. :))

hand/eye coordination#reaction speed is a close second#you know :)

perception all day every day baby#sensory#y'know?

perception… I guess.#I have yet to convince myself to start a game with high motorics so I don't think I've seen these guys at their best#but Noticing is sexy

Coming in at number 3 with 15% of the votes (100 overall) is Composure! Composure, to me, is THEE sexiest stat. Everything about them is so perfect to me. The ability to keep one's cool in a frantic situation. The hot hooked nose. The association with Kim. I could go on, but they got third, so I can't. They absolutely have what it takes to be sexy- but I do understand, keeping it together all the time would stop being sexy after a while. Ohhh, but breaking them would be so rewarding! I have to stop. They've got a strong visual appearance that is just. Chef's kiss. Good shit. Again, I think they deserve first, but our next two competitors are hard to beat. Their stat is boosted by Dynamic Winderbreaker Surf (+1), Polar Anorak (+1), Green Snakeskin Shoes (+1), Regular Black Jeans (+1) which is honestly just like. a good outfit lmao REASONS YOU VOTED:

i think i gotta go composure bc composure will fuck you the most out of any of these stats

composure#because the concept of composure failing to hold everything together#issssss hot sorry

composure bc thats kims highest stat thank you

"Composure. Dignity is sexy."

Coming in at number 2 with 19% of the votes (126 overall) we've got Interfacing! Finger-boy! Where as H/E is undoubtedly good with his hands, Interfacing has his specialty being toys and machines; the "prop" possibilities are endless. Uniquely capable in a way that the other motorics skills aren't- with items and machines, being able to wield proficiencies in The physical look of him in his portrait clearly shows an intent concentration with whatever he's interfacing with, hooded eyes, hands delicately poised to touch the surface. He's kind of got a beard thing going on too, maybe that's just how I'm perceiving it, but there's a bit of like. Wizened energy there? I can see that being sexy. Also, something something, the eroticism of machines. His stat is boosted by Yellow Gardening Gloves (+1) and Fairweather T-500 Gauntlets (+2). Kind of funny that his stat is only boosted by gloves.

REASONS YOU VOTED: "I picked Interfacing. Savoir Faire is another skill that I love but simply find silly. I also considered Composure, but that's another one that I find sad and sweet rather than sexy. Interfacing's detail-oriented nature is sexy to me in the same way as Visual Calculus (Also Interfacing is the most autistic skill and that adds a lot to the sexy factor /j)" "interfacing - good w hands" "Interfacing be doing something with their hands I guess"

interfacing <3#bc machines are sexy and interfacing is good with machines

I personally chose composure as my pick for sexiest but all of the Interfacing truthers are so fucking correct.#Unbelievably sexy. I got converted by the tags.

interfacing. the human body is a machine you have explored and know so well

it's gotta be interfacing#it's gotta be!!!!#the eroticism of looking at the body like a machine#of poking around someone's body like it's a machine. taking them apart just to find out how they tick#bonding with kim over machine facts!!!!#THE NICKNAME OF FINGERBOY!!!#COME ON!#IT'S INTERFACING.#IT HAS TO BE

interfacing#knows how to push my buttons???

I think interfacing is the fingering skill.

interfacing is by far the sexiest

interfacing!!!!!#can't explain why. i'm just right

interface with the hole

interfacing#interfacings whole deal is figure out how things work#interfacing could take u apart and put u pack together

And our winner for sexiest Motorics skill with 28% of all votes (186 overall) is Savoir Faire! I was, again, a little shocked at this one. Really? Torso-guy? Looks wise, he's not bad, all those arms definitely make for an interesting silhouette. But the real draw is entirely in the attitude. You can't deny the weight of his slimy, slick, disco seduction power. A smooth operator through and through. There's something to be said about the innate charm of a sleazeball- and this dude is just dripping with it! His stat is boosted by Oversized Superstar Sunglasses (+1) FALN Modular Track Pants (+1). Superstar sunglasses and gray sweatpants. God damn, Savvy. REASONS YOU VOTED:

glad savoir faire is winning… this torso!

savour faire#i will not elaborate#but.#wink wonk

savvy. hes got that slimy swagger

…And that's everybody! Some results were surprising, some were expected, but all of it felt. Educational. Would love to hear everyone's opinions on this lmao.

Light Cardigan - Gojo

notes - HI!!! OMG I FINISHED IT! This was written because of this poll that I held the other day! Look out because I will be doing these much more often!!! I love writing for this stinky lil guy tbh and I'm really proud of how this turned out! I'm taking a creative writing class rn in college and I'm trying to apply some of the stuff I learn to fanfic LMFAO not my teacher's intent, but I love doing it lol. Well, enough rant! Hope you all enjoy and as always, stay super hydrated <3

word count - 766

You felt Gojo toss and turn next to you in the middle of the night. You weren't annoyed by it, but definitely felt a little bad for him.

"Can't sleep?" You asked, turning to Gojo.

Gojo jumped when he heard your voice, and giggled that he got scared by you. "Not really." His voice was hoarse and tired. "Sorry I'm keeping you awake, huh?"

"You're not," you reassured him, rubbing his bare arm that was both cold and warm at the same time, oddly enough. "I can't really sleep either."

"It's just been such a long week, you know?" He whispered, turning towards you, his blue eyes glowing in the dark. "We've both been working our asses off and I guess we're still in work mode."

"I guess."

"I'll shut up," he chuckled, pulling the blanket over his shoulders. "Have a good rest, okay?"

"Wait, Satoru," you cupped his cheek and pulled his face towards yours. "Let's go on a late night walk or something. A drive maybe. I really can't sleep."

You could barely see it, but Gojo smiled at you. "I'll go get the keys," he said hopping out of the bed and putting on a pair of slippers, only bothering to put a soft cardigan over his bare torso.

You got out of bed as well yawning and not caring to check how late or early it was. You grabbed one of Gojo's hoodies from the closet and slipped it on, loving how both comfortable and large it was on you. You followed the hoodie with just a comfortable pair of crocs and walked downstairs hearing the car start up outside.

Gojo walked back in rubbing his hands together and you noticed that he put a pair of round sunglasses on. He smirked at you and kissed you on the forehead.

"Satoru," you said, looking at his bare chest under his thin cardigan. "Go put a shirt on."

"But-"

"Go."

Gojo jokingly rolled his eyes at you and ran upstairs to follow your instructions. "Get in the car!" He shouted from up the stairs. "I'll be right down!"

You walked outside and the cold air slapped you in the face. The sky was so dark blue that it was almost black. It felt like ice was forming in your lungs, but despite that, you took a deep breath in only to let it out, a huge cloud of your breath shooting out in front of you that you could only see because of the headlights from the car.

You crawled in the car, it's engine rumbling, and heard some soft music playing from the radio. Gojo even started up the heater to keep you warm and you sighed at the nice cozy air dusting your rosy cheeks.

"Hey, babe!" Gojo hopped in the car and smiled at you. "Nice out, huh?"

You laughed at his comment and buckled up.

"Where do you want to go?" Gojo's seatbelt made a click and he put the car into reverse.

"I just wanna drive." Your voice came out almost like a whisper and you smiled seeing the streetlamps that were casting an orange glow onto the sidewalk next to your house.

"Driving and late night snacks it is."

You hummed in response, the smile never leaving your face.

The drive lasted a while, streetlamps and light night walkers passing by quickly. When you jumped on the highway, every window in the car was rolled down and music was pouring out of every speaker. You sang loudly to your favorite songs with Gojo and laughed, not even caring that the cold air was making you shiver a bit.

The drive calmed down and your ears were cold as Gojo rolled up the window. Florescent lights of late night buildings were shining in your eyes while you waited at lights that turned the inside of your car an eerie red.

You stepped out of the car in a parking lot and were tucked underneath Gojo's arm as he led you into a convenient store that held all of the junkfood you were hoping for.

You ended up with a small pile in your arms and a large one in Gojo's. Then you two just sat in silence, watching passerbys in their cars. The food was great as late night food usually is.

"Thanks babe." Gojo said, his eyes stayed looking out of the window.

"For what?" You asked, your mouth full of food.

"For this. I had fun."

You smiled and pressed a kiss onto Gojo's cheek. "I had fun too. We'll spend the whole weekend sleeping, promise."

Hi I don't have any art rn but I haven't posted in a bit. Here's some bits from my oldest wip. (No CW except for general violence/injury).

Maybe next time I'll do a poll?? Or smth?? Because I have like 13 WIPs for CoD and I can never decide What to work on or what to share.

No clue if I even have enough followers to do a poll tho LMFAO idk I guess lemme know if you're interested??

[lily-blue-blue-lily]

oh 911 hot takes poll, i loved yours!! what price do i get when i agree with all of your hot takes? the only thing that i am mostly neutral about is henren being the best ship, but that's mostly because i enjoy it the same way i enjoy bathena and madney. they're all cute, but not ships i actively ship if that makes sense?

i think there should be more talk about bobby literally lying his way into the position of captain of the 118 and not only facing zero tangible consequences for his actions but also being allowed to keep the fucking job lmfao. y'all be hating on female characters who are career-focused for personal reasons (cough taylor cough) but when it's a white dude, it's because he's such a poor misunderstood soul boohoo <3 the double standards make me sick <3

buck filing the lawsuit had a point, he literally won the case. like, in canon, the show canonized that buck was in the right. buck's doctor had approved him to go back to firefighting so bobby had no legal ground or evidence to just forbid him to come back. an "inkling" or "feeling" is not a reason for an employer to do that? idk why people were pissed at buck for going the legal route – we have unions because of employers frequently use their power to push you out of your job and shit whenever it suits them. bobby is not buck's doctor nor therapist, so why does anyone think that he can just do that? maybe it's an american thing idk about lmao. buck obtaining millions of dollars as damages said enough, and i need people to swallow that pill.

bless, i am not alone in thinking that eddie was (and obv the buddie shippers were) clearly being kind of an ass to ana! people were at her throat for calling him "edmundo" of all things, as if he cannot speak up for himself or isn't allowed to like his first name lmao. how ana was demonized and eddie was babyfied by the fandom is my villain origin story. on that note, i also must point out that the only reason eddie did not face a trial or any other severe consequences after beating up a man is because that man just conveniently dropped the case. could have easily lost custody over chris because of that, but sure, ana was the disrespectful toxic troublemaker. double standard rgrgrgrgrg

also taylor and bucktaylor my beloved <3 the end of the relationship was so abrupt but what else is new with the wonky 911 writing. i still love her, i love that she is clearly thriving after the breakup, and i think the ship could have been developed instead of broken up tbh. their different values were interesting and challenging, finally somebody who did not appear to only play the role of "buck's girlfriend who must agree with everything". i get the breakup, but taylor was willing to change to make things work, so like, big missed chance imo. i'll keep enjoying them in my heart tho <3

omg thanks for typing all this out and validating my opinions haha! its like we share a mind!

honestly i dont have much to add to this, you summed up a lot of my thoughts so well!

in terms of the lawsuit stuff, i dont necessarily completely agree with buck filing the lawsuit, like i get why the others were mad, but i do think that bobbys reaction to it was not great, plus like buck did have a point, he wouldn't have won otherwise and also i think there was a double standard, like other characters who got injured (like when chimney got the freaking rebar through his skull!!) came back to work pretty quick with no issue, but for some reason its different for buck?

my biggest issue with the 911 fandom is how any love interest buck and eddie have are treated. like, dont get me wrong, i love buck and eddie and i do ship them, but also the way fans treat the female characters is gross. i love taylor, like shes not perfect and im not saying she did nothing wrong, but also every other character in the show has fucked up on multiple occasions yet they arent treated with the same hatred she is, i truly dont get it! i do think it was right for her and buck to break up at the point they did, but for the majority of their relationship i did really like them as a couple!

im not gonna go into any more detail here cos this post is becoming insanely long and i have so many thoughts, but like, anon, you get it. thank you!

[norma-jean-monster]

oh btw, that poll about my pfp, most of you voted yes I should change it, but there were enough of you who voted "no, you swore an oath" that I'm super on the fence about it, lmfao.

maybe I'll change it as a trial run and see how we all feel about it and whether I can recognize myself. it shouldn't matter that much yet it absolutely does.
