#maybe try not talking like you're in a fucking romantic drama. god

[nakanotamu]

[cdroloisms]

fuck it i'm making this c!awesamdreamity sitcom AU (dr3 edition) a real thing for the funnies alone. why the hell not

premise: they get thrown into a sitcom. that's it. they're in a sitcom world that plays by sitcom rules, which means that everything that occurs Has to conceivably work within the genre. that means no throwing dream in a cell underground and treating him as a prisoner, sam, that's not funny enough. they can't leave or escape, and if they try to do something that Doesn't work within the genre they'll either just be completely unable to do it or they'll be foiled in some genre-specific way (ex: sam tries to build a cell on the property anyway and ends up in a three-episode arc about his fight with HOA)

the main point of this set up is that anything is technically possible as long as it works within the bit. also, yes, there's a laugh track, and whether or not the characters can hear it has everything to do with what's the funniest option (c!sam fucking hates the thing, for the record.)

highlights of this include:

the sitcom Demands A Relationship. because neither c!quackity nor c!sam is willing to do the whole married couple spiel with c!dream, that means that c!awesamq are the ones that are officially "together." this goes so fucking badly and is like, the primary reason why i'm making this a thing in the first place

c!dream isn't Allowed to be a prisoner, but he does have to stay within the house. between the genre and c!awesamq's opinions, he's not really going to end up as just "the roommate" or family or you know, an official third part of the throuple, so the maid it is

a level of violence is allowed but like, the actual pain/consequences has everything to do with whether it works For The Bit or For The Drama. like, c!q might hit c!dream with the car and nothing will happen bc it'll be played off as a punchline, for example, but also a dramatically timed fall might lead to someone walking around with a broken arm for an 'episode' or two. there's no magical accelerated healing here, just the Power Of The Bit

similarly, a lot will be allowed to slide as long as you're genre savvy about it. c!quackity won't be able to get away with outright torturing c!dream for hours, of course, but pushing him around is fine as long as it's funny enough. especially if it comes with a side of romantic drama

speaking of the romantic drama, hoo boy are c!awesamq a fucking TRAIN WRECK. like my god are they so toxic. c!sam is literally the quintessential asshole condescending boyfriend on that server and c!q has a quick fuse, a hell of a temper, and generally reacts to being talked down to with several knives and cursing. they take to a domestic romantic relationship as a fish does to . uh. lava maybe. like it's BAD

think screaming slammed doors things being thrown there's a glass sailing towards c!sam's head screaming over the banisters holes in the drywall fine! FINE! [laugh track] bad. it'd be gloriously, ridiculously toxic. the crowd goes wild

c!quackity has to contend with the fact that his husband is absolutely down horrendous FOR THEIR STUPID GODDAMN MAID .

the maid also wants his husband more than quackity :/ sidelined in his own relationship once again (i wonder why, Q)

how well they adjust has everything to do with how well they acclimate to the genre. c!quackity does the best job--he knows how to play a crowd and do so well. c!sam by FAR acclimates the worst. he's inherently completely offended by the idea of everything about his job and the prison being turned into Entertainment, into something Funny, into A Show To Consume and basically reacts to the sitcom thing by trying to ignore it. this, of course, means that he ends up generally being the butt of the joke

c!dream is. well. at least he's got less stress about dying i guess. and is generally a lot less injured bc starvation and torture lead to lower comedy ratings smh. is still kinda in hell but you know yesterday he got to watch c!quackity hit c!sam over the head with a frying pan and literal cartoon birds appeared so

honestly he's kinda quietly having an existential crisis and lowkey earning sympathy points from the proverbial audience by being the one that comes off the least as Just The Complete And Utter Worst

(meanwhile: c!sam is yelling at c!quackity for how he's apparently cut up all of his dress shirts while c!quackity screams back about something something and he can stick the scissors up his ass)

The Spirealm Ep 6 Reaction

fair warning: in these episode reactions I'm not gonna pretend I haven't read the novel. in fact, I purposely finished the novel before viewing, to get The Full Experience. thus novel spoilers, including twist end, included.

🙌 client sleeps on the floor time 🙌 (LQ: I can sleep on the floor. RN: NO.)

Creepy X agent listening at their door and setting up the newbie.

Spikes stabbed through the wall while they sleep! Not ok!!!!!

This is why in a survival game you sleep fully clothed!

"Are we really going to treat the kids this way?"

"There's no room for mercy."

I fucking love how creepy the whole forced holding an egg in your mouth thing is.

Lock picking skills and THE DOOR \o/

lmao after RN snarks at agent X, "so that's your new partner" and makes a face at her, he turns and flashes this little smile at LQ as he says, "let's go." The bias is so strong.

yaaaaaaaaassssss the newbie is losing it. Things are falling apart. RN looks as enthralled as me.

LB is supposed to be standing guard while RN sleeps (as they all take turns), but does he sit in the chair? no. He sits on the bed next to RN, and talks out loud to him so there's no way he'll sleep either lol.

Nevermind, they're just gonna go to sleep together and hope no monsters try to kill them overnight.

.... that lasts about 15 seconds 👍

ah, LQ discovers that RN tried switching their eggs so the monster will target only RN. He's so low key about it. I like how understated it is, though of course LQ understands the significance of every time RN protects him.

"Here's yours."

You just know those crossed hands were blocked that way on purpose.

The way that RN then just matter of factly drops his on the floor, completely crushed. "My hand slipped. I must have been delirious."

Look at that lying uwu face

LQ doesn't even bother to buy what those eyes are selling and he once again probes, tests, why are you taking such good care of me?

He suggests maybe it's about recruiting him to join Obsidian, but imo I don't think he actually believes it's mercenary. It's that... it all feels too good to be true. (His repeated questioning reminds me a little about how Cha Yeowoon in 'Love for Love's Sake' finally laments, in distress, that he doesn't understand why Tae Myungha is treating him this way. And he's told, why can't someone just decide to be good to you? In both dramas, Ruan Nanzhu & Tae Myungha are indeed hiding some critical context but that doesn't mean the care is false.)

In this case, RN tells him: "I think you're talented. I want to be friends with you."

"You came through this door just to help me, didn't you?" RN spins a story, but neither LQ or the audience buy his bluster. Plus, there's delicate piano music again ;)

"I believe in you. .. Because I see a light in you that others don't have."

(this is VERY INTERESTING in lieu of the fact that in the novel, 12th Door God!RN apparently saw something so special in Actual Leader of Obsidian!LQ such that he falls in love and creates this entire long game for them both to lose their memories & develop a relationship asdfghjk)

awwwwwwwwwwwww LQ gives a tiny smile with, 'ok' and agrees they'll escape the door and then he'll go PICK UP CHESTNUT THE CAT AND COME FIND HIM 💕💕💕

Clasped hands! Heart eyes! RN: "Agreed."

LMAOOOOO the way they're still romantically holding hands while our leading lady jolts up sleep-talking about accepting a Best Actress award. Nice bit of comedy to break the mood, so it doesn't cross over into cheesy.

lol next morning, RN: whose sleeping posture looks better, mine or Xu Xiaocheng?

LQ, a savvy husband-in-training, "Both look good." Nice save, sir! Couldn't have done it better myself.

Yaaaaaaasssss the bloody cake!

Hils Watches Only Friends - Ep 2

Honestly not sure who I'm more envious of. Yo and her boyfriend are both so cute

Is Boston going to be the one who catches feelings? Or maybe he's in love with Top which is why he isn't keen on their relationship

Sand might be my favourite character. He's right! Public confessions/proposals are the worst

Mew has a competence kink. Relatable.

Can't decide if Boston is trying to sabotage their relationship or if he's looking out for Mew because Top is actually a dick.

Unrelated to the plot but I'm amused that whenever I liveblog a GMM drama I always refer to everyone by their actor names at first until I learn their characters. I think I've got the main group sorted in my head now.

Someone really needs to talk to Ray about his drinking problem

Oh, I guess Mew just did

I mean he's not the only one

I will be so amused if all of the usual ships end up with other people. Like Khaotung/Book, Force/Neo, which I guess leaves Mark/First which I don't really see but the others would work.

Oh, excellent, their one female friend is also queer. Love it.

Oh, look, Sand and Nick know each other. Maybe my theory isn't that wild

OH MY GOD THEY'RE ABOUT TO BECOME ROOMMATES

I love Mew. They could have so easily made him this naive romantic who gets swept up by Top's bullshit but he's very clear about what he's getting into and what he wants (or doesn't want)

Oh, sweetie, you're in a drama. Everyone has secrets.

Apparenty selling booze to minors is less of a big deal than selling drugs to minors

Oh my god this is like a fic trope. Actually I did read a fic recently where someone hired someone to be their friend (and obv they later fell in love)

Ah of course Ray has childhood trauma from seeing his mum die

Wow they've been fake friends for like an hour and they're already smiling and laughing together

Oh no is he starting to have feelings already?

Well, I'm not exactly surprised by this development

These two just jerked each other off but when they sat up their underwear was miraculously on and in place

He said the words in english and they still censored the subs. I'm having flashbacks to Kinnporsche when Vegas said fuck in English and subs said fudge.

Are you sure about that? I was just being very asexual and thinking being horny all the time the way Boston is sounds exhausting.

More childhood trauma I see.

If you're going to snuggle anyway to help Top sleep why don't you just use the bed. He's only on the couch because you didn't want to sleep together

Thank you for saying all genders

I do not fine smoking attractive at all but sometimes it's hot when it's on TV

Well that happened way sooner than I was expecting

[dragynkeep]

Miles fucking Luna just admitted on Cameo bumbleby was made canon soley because of its popularity with shippers and "would have toned down the Black Sun moments" had they known beforehand! Ais, please bully this beta looking crackhead on Twitter for me because I don't have an account and I refuse to get one

i watched the video & 1. why does he look like that & 2. why is he so goddamn close to the camera. back tf up on this cameo you've owed someone for ages, maybe try & be a little professional & not look like you're recording this on your smoke break.

it's also interesting he doesn't mention why he had to turn cameo off for a bit when some of the last cameos he had included misusing the word genocide over a fictional character & then pimping out his own self insert as "bisexual" & having to walk it back when people, desperate for queer mlm representation in this homophobic ass show, were wondering if it was actually going to be canon when. nah. he just said it for money :))

"you asked if there was any behind the scenes info for bumblby, which is hard cause i don't think there's much to talk about" for a ship you've apparently had in the works for 10 years? since the beginning? kept so under wraps? whatever, miles.

ohhh my god miles bringing up that blake is the bisexual queen & "everyone wants to date her" as if he wasn't disgustingly biphobic & joked about getting off to women kissing in front of him as well as asking if bisexual women were "truly bisexual" or just "sipped from the fur cup" with his best friend who sexually harasses women.

it's also weird that this essentially confirms the reason she has the "blake harem" is because she's bisexual, as well as being "cute & pretty." which. fall into a hole, luna, you ugly fuck.

also positing sun & blake on their faunus relationship as the much smaller one while being deluded there was anything to yang & blake over the "much longer relationship" besides a shit ton of shared trauma & no in depth discussions, no romantic connection, nothing until the last two volumes where they were like "welp, better get this yuri train on the road" & invented moments for them out of nowhere that were out of character & did a disservice to their actual characters.

"they're finally in a place where they can admit their feelings to one another" but why? nothing has changed between them, they've actively ignored or pushed aside the so called "baggage & drama" that miles described them going through & in this volume they were essentially made by the environment to confess their feelings, not through any genuine connection. there was no reason that this confession couldn't have happened in all the life threatening situations last volume & i would've been spared yang fetishizing blake's racial features.

overall: this cameo just confirms the worst of what we knew about crwby in regards to sun / blake / yang. whatever was popular was going to be canon, they didn't care or understand their characters motivations & there is so much biphobia in their treatment of their main bisexual character in regards to both her love life & the confirmation of it only coming in a wlw relationship, downplaying all sides of her attraction.

they could've had blake be confirmed bisexual from day one. they could've done more with blake & yang in the early volumes instead of borderline pimping her out to the cast to have a harem because of said bisexuality & her "cuteness" when in what way does that fit the reserved & cautious blake we know?

this is five minutes of my time i'll never get back & i wish miles a very happy get [redacted] because your shitty voice sounds like razor blades in my ear, you unwashed biphobic fuck.

Jim Bickerman + Wayne Jackson *Separately* x Reader || Drabble Set

Plot: Part One.

The hospital wont let you in to see him!! You're not related, so they wont even give you any important information. You're about to blow a blood vessel just to get behind those mysterious double doors and find him yourself. As a last resort, you call the dumbass brother back up and demand he come and get you in.

*Bickerman Twins AU.

Warnings: Frustrated!Tense!Reader. Angst. Hospital angst. Unedited, I sleepy.

Whaaat?? Writing semi-serious romantic fiction for two Robert Englund characters that like 4-5 people on Tumblr are interested in?? *avoiding eyecontact by staring at a rock* not meeee...

Calling Jim to come see (Your ex) Wayne:

You're already annoyed having to be here in the first place, getting dragged off your couch after work because ex as done something dubious (Probably) and gotten himself hospitalised and made you worried sick. You're even more frustrated when no one here will answer any of your questions.

He's stable, they say. Yes, you respond in an irritated tone. But what does that m e a n?? Is going to get better or is he c o m f o r t a b l e? As in, dying but without the pain.

Every time someone says We cant hand out any further information without a relative, you want to crush something.

You try to tell yourself they're just doing their jobs, because they are and you respect that, but its Wayne.

And he's not allowed to die, yet. Not without your permission. No way. He wouldn't dare. Bastard.

Finally you leave the waiting room and stand outside in the cold night time air to dial your recent call. Jim picks up after 2 rings, but he doesn't sound all there, this time. Great.

"Hey, Jim."

"Oh Y/N! Nice to hear your voice, sweetcheeks. How are you, hm??"

"Well, not great." You respond bluntly, glancing at the glowing red and white sign above the emergency room entrance. "... Look, I'm not calling to chat. They're not telling me anything because I'm not family, so you're going to have to get over your family drama and get over here, now. Okay??"

"... get to where?"

You have no patience for Jim's drunk bullshit right now. "The hospital where your brother is laying somewhere possibly dying. That place. Ring a bell??"

"... vaguely." He sounds like he definitely remembers, but would prefer not to. Not because he's worried about Wayne, but because its an added irritation sprinkled on top of what is already what you assume to be a failure of a day. Like a gross fly hanging around your head on a sweltering hot day.

"Wonderful. So??"

"So what."

"jIM!"

The screech in your voice hurts his ears, thats evident by the groan he gives, but it wakes him up at least. "Okay, okay- I get it, I heard you, yeah. Uh-... Y'want me to come talk to the doctors about Wayne... Um... I would... but...- "

"Oh no!" You snap. "No buts!"

"... but- "

"No!" You insist, shaking your head. "He is possibly dying, Jim- or dead, since I last asked. And maybe you don't want anything to do with him anymore, which I understand since he's a pain in the ass, but I- " Something in you clenches and you take a deep breath to steady yourself. To stop yourself from crying. You're keeping it together, god-fucking-damnit. "But I don't care. Scrape your pathetic drunk ass off whatever sticky bar stool you're currently wasting away on and come visit your brother, or visit a nice lady in deaths reception- because if you don't come here I will send you there myself. I don't care, but either way, make your decision-- NOW!"

Then you hang up, and take another deep breath; crisp air filling up your lungs and making you feel dizzy. "... I need fries." You finally sigh out when the anger thins out leaving behind just the exhaustion, turning heavily on your aching feet back towards the door. Drenched in tomato sauce.

Mmm...

After you methodically emptied 5 packets of ketchup onto your stale, lukewarm hospital cafeteria fries and eaten one- you can feel your entire body coming back to life. If only to tell you how achy you are from work and then getting here and stressing so bad the whole way. Calm down, its yelling at you. And with the salty chippies in front of you and the taste of tomato sauce on your tongue, you almost do.

... But then you remember how badly you want to see Wayne okay, and how it surprised you how hard this hit you even after all this time. You made him leave back then; you got away just in time, before you became a casualty in his terrible life. You did the smart thing. You're the smart one! You've always been the smart one; you practically had no choice.

But apparently not all of you is smart.

Letting out a slow breath through your nose, you lean your forehead into you the heels of your hands, elbows on the table.

When your phone buzzes you manage to wrangle it out of your pocket and chuck it on the table, weakly opening it up and sighing as you read your notification.

Give me a few hours.

You can pay me in bourbon.

Slowly you type out a thank you.

Calling Wayne to come see (Your ex) Jim:

After you hang up on Reba (You annoyed the nurse enough that she called the woman who dropped Jim off so she could speak to you- and that was Reba. But she told you that he got half eaten up by a giant fucking crocodile and now you don't feel any better), you get out your own phone and unblock Wayne's number- then press call before you can back out of it, and wait impatiently for him to answer.

It takes him 6 awful rings, but just when you're ready to curse him out of pure frustration (And tiredness- it took a lot longer to get here then you first thought. Its 4am, now.) he picks up. 'Hello'-ing you like he doesn't know who this is. Whether he does or not you roll your eyes and mimic him with all the restrained annoyance of a sneering 5-year-old. "hElLo. Wayne! Its me again."

"Oh, well hey. Uh, you seen him yet?"

"No!!" You cry, frustrated and forgetting for a second that he doesn't actually care. "They wont let me, I'm not family." When he merrily hums into the receiver, like he's not really paying attention (like instead of sympathising with you over his brother being in hospital, he's flicking through a newspaper or taking a sip of lukewarm coffee) you breath in a sharp, clipped breath. Right. You're alone. "Anyway- come here."

He perks up immediately on his end of the line. "Heheh, oh?? Well, this is sudden, but uh... sure. Something I said resonated with you, huh?"

"I need you to come and get information about Jim. Get me into the room. You're his brother."

"... oh."

"Please."

"Ehhhh... you know; I'm kinda busy... "

Ughhh- "You are not!" You snap, sounding petulant. You don't care, you're tired... and you're worried... and you suddenly cant remember why you left Jim because you need him to be okay so bad that your chest hurts. You've been trying not to stop this whole time, bothering nurses with phone calls and eventually your face for hours, because if you don't you might cry. After a moment, and he doesn't respond, you take a deep breath and force yourself to sound calm. You know you sound psychotic but at this point you don't really care. You turn away from other people in the busy waiting room. "Wayne- Believe me, if you do not get your crusty ass into a car, or a plane, or a train, or a really fast bus and help me, then I am going to track you down, and get you. Trust me, I have the annual leave lined up. I will find you, and not even Lyle will be able to save you."

"See, now, I'm kinda intrigued~ Maybe I want you to come get me, huh sweetheart?"

"I will squeeze you so hard the little hole your blanks come out of closes up for good, Wayne."

"Jesus- "

"Hop to it! Now!" You snap, then hang up and go get a shot of chocolate from a vending machine. Clearly, you need it.

When you finally sit down 10 minutes later in the cafeteria, a coffee and a crumbly brownie in front of you, you give a sigh and stretch your legs out under the wobbly table. You know somewhere in this hospital Jim and he might be dying, and thats a nightmare coming to life that you're not mature enough- not equipped enough- to deal with.

When your phone vibrates in your pocket your pull it out and read the text with heavy, tired eyes.

On my way. Lyle's real mad. Get ready to give me a big kiss hello, sugar.

Slowly you let out a deep, relieved breath.

[hellfiremunsonn]

WHY WHAT HAPPENED??(if you’re comfy)

OH MY MOTHER FUCKING GOD

BESTIE

YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW.

SO LETS START FROM THE BEGINNING.

SO

I matched with this dude on hinge, he was hot, looked like a vampire dom daddy (as you've seen me refer to him as before) and I was like omg dom daddy here I come.

AND THEN I was like hey Alfie look at this dude, and she was like "AYEO"

So then I was like what if we you know, all kiss each other, and she was like YEAH OKAY.

But then there was a bit of some miscommunication so both Alfie and I thought that both of us were saying that he had to pick one of us because were both literal goobs.

but thats not where the drama stops!!!!!!! He was basically trying to like turn me against Alfie and was making it seem like she was the crazy one the entire time. And I was sitting there like "damn, maybe Alfie is crazy" but it didn't make sense to me because Alfie is literally the most sweet and smart and perfect little human being so It didn't make sense. AND THEN Alfie and I talked and we were like OHHHH WERE DUMB.

But Alfie and I were like cool, all three of us can date each other, we were all down for that, all consented to that.

SO we go to his house to hang out, and fuck around obviously because duh.

BUT BUT BUT before we met up with him I said to Alfie. "Our relationship comes first, platonic, or romantic, we come first, you're my priority" because its true! I've known her for almost a year now so obviously that relationship is more important.

He went INSTANTLY into like dom mode, making us both kneel and each of us take off one of his boots.

He spanked the both of us for previous shenanigans and that was chill.

And honestly I should have known something was off then because I didn't feel the same about everything as I had two days before.

Alfie has mentioned this before on her blog, and has given me permission to talk about it, but she struggles with penetration, half because of trauma, half because of Vaginismus (A condition that can make penetrative sex difficult and painful)

It's something she's been working on, and isn't something she hid from him nor me so there was never any pressure for her to even try to have sex if she didn't want to.

That's kind of where it was like teehee Lillie can pick up the slack on that part cause although sex is still a bit painful for me, I can take a dick.

NOW before we get into the rest of it lets talk about this mf and his ZERO foreplay. He has a lot of sexual trauma so there was also never any pressure for him to do anything he didn't want to do, but as the one being in charge of two submissive, their pleasure or the instruction of it is in his hands. There was none of that.

He told Alfie to go down on me which she did, so I at least got SOMETHING but it was actually kind of hard to concentrate while he was there. (He also makes these like absolute feral growling sounds, and sticks his tongue out, like full tongue out)

Yes there was lube involved but like, you want your partner(s) to touch you, or want you to feel good.

So after Alfie and him had a moment, that I got to sit back and watch which was fantastic, Alfie is fucking HOT so I was having a good time. SO after that he was like ayeo time for Lillie!!!

And I was like cool whatever lets get it over with, which I probably should have mentioned but like I endured it anyway. So Alfie is next to us trying to cum with her vibrator, and hes fucking me, and I keep looking over at Alfie because like hello she's hot and making cute noises, ALSO ITS A FUCKING THREESOME, INVOLVE THE OTHER PERSON.

SO then he fucks into me a few times and its a bit too deep to still feel comfy so I was like ayeo lets slow down which he was cool with. Alfie is still struggling to cum cause thats life and sometimes that happens, and because I told him to slow down he just ended up stopping, like taking the condom off and everything so I was like cool!!! He fucked off for a second so I was telling Alfie maybe take a break from trying to cum and then come back to it, which she ended up doing.

But while taking a break, the come down of endorphins, she got into her head a little bit, so I knew something was up right away. We gave her some time to just like lay down for a second and then this MF is like okay I want you to suck my dick now and I'm like okay sure. (Also another thing, you can't touch him???? You can't touch his forearms, or his chest, or basically anywhere other than his bicep???? so sucking a dick when you can't touch it, and its one of them that sticks like straight up when its hard, ITS KINDA HARD TO MANEUVER)

But still I was like something is going on with Alfie. So Alfie gets up to get her pills cause it was pill o'clock, and he starts trying to get me to back to sucking his dick, and I was like wait no I wanna make sure Alfie is okay, and he was visibly upset.

So she's like across the room (I can't see her from where I am) taking her pills, and I'm just waiting to make sure she's okay, and so I ask her if she wants to leave, if she needs anything and she's saying she's okay but she's not.

But he thinks thats her giving us the green light so he tries again and I'm like literally no????

So she goes to the bathroom to like have a moment, and I have no intention of continuing anything sexual until Alfie is okay. So he turns to me when she's out of the room and is like "thats just odd timing for her to pull that" and "I'm like super frustrated right now" and "I suppressed a lot of my trauma for you guys"

and is like trying to say that she's doing it on purpose because of jealousy and shit, that were responsible for how he's handling his trauma, and that I'm somehow also responsible for him cumming????

and I'm like "if one of us isn't okay, were all not okay" because if you're going to be in a literally three way relationship everyone needs to be on the same wavelength.

Alfie comes back and wraps herself up in a blanket and I'm still asking her if she's okay, and if she needs anything, and so he asks me if he wants to come walk his dog with him to leave Alfie alone, and I was like no, I'm not going to leave her alone. So I tell him to go walk his dog so I can talk to Alfie, and as soon as I hear his bedroom door close I'm like "hey what's going on" and instantly Alfie tells me what's wrong, and that she just had a rush of negative emotions, could have been a little bit of sub drop, and how she felt left out when he started up the sexual stuff again.

WHICH IS LIKE SO VALID, a three way is exactly that, A THREE WAY.

So I mentioned some of her concerns when he comes back and that she felt a little left out, and his response was "well you could have have been involved"

HELLO? Like yeah obviously she could have been involved, but if you're creating a space where someone feels like they can't be included, or even voice that they want to be included??????

So then after I'm like not into anything sexual cause the way he reacted to how Alfie was feeling instantly put me off of him. After a while of Alfie feeling better and us making jokes again he goes "I'mma be good to go in like five minutes"

and like my brother in christ read the room. I was not going to do anything more with that mf.

Basically after like another hour of cuddling which we shouldn't have done we left because HE WAS HUNGRY. (THE ENTIRE TIME HE DIDN'T OFFER US FOOD, OR WATER, LITERALLY NOTHING)

He didn't kiss either of us goodbye, so when Alfie and I got into the uber we were like what the actual fuck was that. On the ride home I was like "Yeah I'm done, how he reacted to you solidified that decision"

So when we got home I sent him a message and said "I don't think I want to continue whatever it is we had going on" (with the added thumbs up emoji because I'm toxic)

and he said "Yeh its not really working for me either. Think your both grate thro!! I'm too happy we got to have fun together :)" (all that spelling is his spelling.... he actively used the wrong 'your' CONSTANTLY)

AND THATS BASICALLY HOW WE ENDED OUR NIGHT.

We cuddled and watched monsters inc after yelling about him and having a snack.

I could go on and on about FAKE DOMS because Jesus fucking christ they're everywhere and he was one of them.

Good liar, has honed that skill her entire life and keeps using it all the time especially around the Emperor.

She lies to him. To his face. And sometimes does it well enough that he believes her.

Physical appearance : thin and tall, long blond hair with cyan eyes. Yes literally the eye hurty color, cyan. Tendency to wear dresses with many layers, although I haven't yet found a historical aesthetic i want to draw from when thinking of her.

Colors : Gold, silver, blue, green to some extent (that's for Cenaldir).

Elysia

Ice magic that she uses when she needs to hurt or physically restrain others, but also uses for creative expression in her spare time. Incredibly skilled and dangerous in a fight. Extensive ice theming with Vincent, another ice user, who she initially dates because he's from Lonna and she'd like to become that region's Master for reasons.

Shield magic that she uses incredibly regularly, with the ice.

Comes from the Sky City's Academy, the only place where an Anomaly can even hope to have a good future, the only place where Dawn has decided she could make magical soldiers loyal to her and her only, the only place where one may get the training required to become Master of a region, the highest ranked pawn in Dawn's ideal hierarchy. She is a teacher there, for a time.

Speak to animals ability : she knows everything about everyone if they even so much as live near animals, including insects. She uses this to blackmail and force people to obey to her all the time. That's how she figures out secrets, that's how she can get pretty much anyone expelled from the Sky City's Academy if she wishes to. That's how she learns where things are hidden and how to find them.

Incredible liar and manipulator, she bends entire character arcs to her whim using these skills, on top of the general intimidation factor of her fighting prowess. Drives a good portion of the later parts of the plot through the sheer... well. webs she has spun.

She lies to Dawn. To her face. And Dawn believes her.

Physical appearance : thin and tall, long blond hair with cyan eyes. Perfectly tailored shirts and waistcoats with a vest and pants to match.

Colors : Grey, white, ice-blue and gold.

[lastemberss]

finished the vampire armand last night and i have so many thoughts. it's definitely the book that had me the most invested so far in the series, maybe because i just can't take lestat's self-inflicted problems too seriously lmao.

i'm going to quit my job to become a full-time marius hater. i didn't like him before (it's the paternalism) but now ohhhh hell for marius!! hell for 10,000 years!!

early marius/armand is such a tasty blend of horrifying and romantic, things got surprisingly explicit! and the drama... armand at like 16 breaking down the door with an axe because marius isn't talking to him? incredible. of course then it's all downhill from there.

the religious stuff was more interesting than expected, except when it got into memnoch territory. i skipped that book for a reason! why are we still talking about this!! but it definitely added to the tragedy of it all.

the indoctrination into the cult and what happened to the other boys is so nightmare-inducing, god.

and then when we get to iwtv uhhhh. armand, beloved, you're really the villain of that story and the justifications are just making it worse. what you did to poor claudia was. not being helpful. really funny that his explanation for not helping lestat when he came crawling to him is that lestat healing by himself would make him stronger. it was all tough love really. tower? what tower?

no mention of nicki either, wow!!

now i'm really really curious about how the show will handle the rest of the interview with armand there. what does louis even know at this point? daniel will for sure notice that louis's version of events is off. is armand going to just blatantly lie and we'll only get the truth from lestat later? if armand confesses his claudia-related crimes louis might just set him on fire. unless of course show armand is a better person but. that's unlikely. or louis already knows and that's why he's so dead inside???

but back to the novel. armand and lestat really both instantly fell for louis because he was just so beautiful and sad huh.

very little new info on louis and armand's relationship? just that they both learned how to be alone from it. ow.

also tragic is the absence of daniel, the few times he's mentioned are so fucking sad. and everybody wandering away from night island...

i know marius is useless in general but he could've at least killed santino. dude had all your children tortured and/or murdered and you're just having a chat with him??? then again as i'm typing this i realize he's not the only one to be remarkably chill about their kid's murderer huh.

it's so funny that armand apparently hates gabrielle. why her of all people. what has she ever done to you, she's just minding her own business.

hilarious that armand has a problem with lestat's "brat prince" nickname and is like "prince of what?? on whose authority???". but then that's because of their collective marius issues.

more fun info: louis likes baz luhrmann's romeo+juliet, because of course he does, and armand watches the x-files apparently.

i love sybelle and benji, their section feels almost wholesome in comparison with. everything else. like yeah ok armand is kinda recreating the relationship he had with marius and bianca with them but. in a healthier way, sort of. he's trying. he's supportive. i hope nothing bad happens to them. well. nothing worse.

fucking. marius.

[n3onstarss]

More s/o headcannons because I'm a sad little man who can't sleep

fluff mostly, romantic, canon typical violence, maybe death?

Starscream

Stupid little man (affectionate)

He literally doesn't get his own emotions. if it's not anger or hatred towards Megatron, what is it?

you're.. you're gonna have your hands full.

ESPECIALLY if you happen to be poly and happen to be with Bee or the Elite Trine or (gods forbid) Skyfire. because all those possibilities are just chaos incarnate

Okay so maybe Skyfire or Thundercracker might (might) be able to keep him in check.. no. no that's a lie. RIP (rest in piss) you i guess, have fun.

you're gonna have to save his aft more then once.

not in battles, he's okay with weapons, but talking him out of things? yeah..

do NOT let him try to negotiate. you'll just end up in deeper shit.

even if you can't negotiate, you'll do better then him

he's a big cuddler, but he also likes receiving gifts or giving them

you can't tell me he doesn't behave like a bird sometimes.

like

gifting rocks and sticks and shiny things he finds as presents

he deserved so much better then he got

do NOT raise your hand or voice at him if it can be helped

you'll have to patch him up after Megatron takes out his anger, please be gentle and listen and give plenty of cuddles after

he's not innocent by any means, he KNOWS he's a fucking menace. he does it on purpose.

he's also a war criminal so..

yeah

he's a gift giving (giving) or physical touch (receiving) live language :)

Bumblebee

You'll likely still have your hands full

he has good intentions, he's just rly fucking reckless

i hope you have ibuprofen, you'll both need it.

you for headaches from how many times Bee almost gets himself killed and him for scraped knees and shit

He's totally a drama queen, but only when it's funny

he tried to be the comic relief because he was forced into that role growing up and was never taken seriously, please listen to him and show him it's okay to not be the 'funny one'

gods forbid you both have similar trauma, that'll just be hell and create a loop of 1) him trying to help you by being funny 2) you stoping him and 3) trying to be funny for his sake until he stops you, and then it repeats with him trying to be funny to cheer you up again

Sometimes it really is funny, sometimes it's a defense mechanism.

after all, it's hard to yell at someone when they crack a joke that makes you giggle, he knows this from experience

His love language is totally words of affirmation, both giving and receiving.

he tried his best to behave and be careful, but sometimes he gets into sticky situations, please be patient

Ratchet

he's.. he's something that's for sure

he needs to be told to rest. seriously.

he'll be a hypocrite about sleep, instructing everyone to get some sleep and take breaks but then work for 16 hours straight.

literally force this man into bed please.

he tries not to worry you, but often fails (really often-)

PLEASE make him relax. a bath, a nap, a movie, SOMETHING

he adores you, but he tries not to display any PDA

the farthest he'll go is a quick peck when everyone is distracted

He's worried the cons will take you for bait if he shows PDA

SO. MANY. SNIDE. REMARKS.

/pos

His love language is quality time!

just sit in the medbay while he works. even if you're "in the way" (usually lies so he can pick you up, human or bot alike)

he appreciates the company :)

he's worried about everyone, like a mom with accident prone kids

except all those kids are (mostly) adults and can (mostly) take care of themselves

PLEASE try to stay out of trouble, it'll help lower his stress to know you're okay <3

Arcee

she has a lot of trouble with relationships, please be patient

another anti-PDA bot

except hers is mostly because she's worried that she'll lose you to the cons death-wise, not kidnapping or bait

please please please make sure to stay away from cons and reassure her you're both going to be okay

She might have some days where dysphoria hits hard, please make sure she knows you support and love her no matter what

She supports you and you better support her back

her love language is gift giving (giving) and words of affirmation (receiving)

shiny rocks, food/fuel, small objects that remind her of you, anything is fair game

please please giver her physical touch, she loves receiving physical touch!

cuddles and kisses >>>

Knock Out

DRAMA KING

He can take care of himself, or so he swears

he is a little crazy, and not in the fun way.

he's got something going on in that noggin of his, but insists he's fine

please just hug him and reassure him you're both okay

He loves receiving gifts or quality time, and giving physical touch or quality time

he cares so much about you, but can't really figure out how to show you

he'll touch up your paint/mess with your hair, carry you around if he can, bring you energon, heal you first after battles or scraps with other cons

he doesn't like to say he lives you out loud, sorry :(

but he does love you! he's just scared to admit it out loud

Please please please get him to sit out a race and take care of himself

he uses street racing to get his adrenaline going and to distract himself, please get him to add some other distractions as well!

maybe movies or tinkering or something will help?

maybe not, he's got a speed demon, but maybe!

Soundwave

y'know how most of these have been make them take care of thrmself?

other way around.

look man, he was a dad to the cassettes for YEARS, he knows when shits wrong and usually he knows how to fix it

if not, he has the internet in his head, he'll be fine

He's probably the best about taking care of himself, but he does refuse to take breaks from work sometimes or he works late, please help?

he's gonna baby you so much-

like, making sure you're taking care of yourself and that you're okay

If the cassettes like you, he likes you

his cassettes go before everyone else, including you

you're a close second though, it's just dad things

it's likely the cassettes will see you as a parental figure, if not right away then later

Please help this man out with the kids, he has like 8 of them and he works a lot of the time-

Shockwave

So this can go one of two ways, he can be some evil genius mastermind who barely pays attention to anything but his job, or he can be a sweet dude who's just doing what he think is right.

since we only ever see him from the autobots pov or their allies I'm going with the second

Please make sure he gets enough sleep. he won't do it on his own. if you both have insomnia or just can't then fuck

you'll both be each others bedtime timer in a way?

PLEASE GET HIM SOME LEGOS /SRS

I feel like he would LOVE building Lego sets

He's probably got a little cabin fever, he's been on Cybertron for millenia, but he also refuses to leave base

please take him on a field trip or something-

he's totally a words of affirmation dude <3

he can take care of himself, but only barely-

he's got keeping everything running under control, it's just kinda a messy way of doing it.

controlled chaos type of guy!

Skywarp

Oh. my. gods.

you thought you had your hands full with Scream or Bee?

no.

Skywarp, a well known prankster that can teleport, you're absolutely fucked

He's def gonna pull a bunch or harmless pranks on you, u less you explicitly ask him to stop

He <3

He totally is a physical touch kinda dude, he MUST be toughing you at all times.

Working? sit back to back or hold hands. He's out in a mission? he has a chain necklace with a item from you on it that he clutches whenever he can. Off work and walking around? holding hands, piggy back rides (he's usually the one that wants the piggy back ride, but it goes either way) About to fall asleep? cuddles and sleepy kisses.

THE biggest sweetheart

He'll also bring little gifts, but he's more specific in some aspects. If a rock isn't pretty enough he wont bring it, even if you tell him you love everything he brings and appreciate anything from him

he wants everything to be perfect for you

He likely has ADHD, please make sure he takes his meds

Please kiss his forehead, it's a weak spot for him. a quick peck will have him shutting up and melting on the spot. Sometimes he'll trail after you like a lovedrunk puppy <3

Thundercracker

There's not much I can say about him that won't do him justice

He's smart, but not the smartest

like.. he's good with social stuff and is shit at math (Me too)

the most likely to get jealous or be protective

If someone tries to flirt with you, he'll stand behind you all puffed up and scary looking

The person usually leaves after that, and when you turn around he's either

A. still being menacing and staring after that person with a death glare, just hug him and he'll deflate

or B. he's already calm and just has, like, drinks or something and a smile

he's another words of affirmation person, he loves giving or receiving

[jams-sims]

Just a run down of all the shit that happen these ep. Which I mean they were good but it was like I was recovering from sun burns. I was burnt out- at this point im so done. I've accepted the fact no one truly likes you.

Suresh Gabi and LuLu cause im not splitting them up to talk about them.

Suresh does not care about you until you stop caring about him. Then he does everything in his power, to get you to look at him. When it comes to confronting him about 5 fucking months of a relationship. God have mercy on you if your romancing him. Because he tells you to go fuck yourself.

He then clearly enters a 3 way with Gabi and Lulu. It is clear as the sky is blue that he is shacking up with both. And I can't tell if lulu is into or stuck in that shit situation. He does everything in his power to fuck you over as much as possible. After all those sweet nothing it means nothing.

Alfie and Meera

Is a better friend than a romantic partner. It is such a fucking tonal shift from how he was before. He openly talks to you more, he's worried about you and your new relationship. He knows that you don't actually like Johnny or Nicolas. They are clearly a means to an end just to see how far you can take it.

He wanted to be with Meera and it shows.

Meera not as confident as she wants people to believe. She wouldn't have put MC up as an option for dumping if she didn't want you gone. Because again when your not dating him you can get really close by being friends. In a relationship it's a nightmare.

That being said I fear that a life and Meera will be dumped to keep the drama of Gabi and Dana. Speaking of which-

Dana

Dana gets every bad thing coming to her. She let her trust issues take the wheel and drive her off a cliff into a ditch-sized grave. She has the fucking nerve to pull you aside to talk. About how she scared about her relationship with Gabi. As if I should give a fuck when she hopped her merry ass over to her.

Not once has she said sorry for cheating and it's probably the same way for the people who dated Alfie. She talked all this good shit about being the one and committing to the relationship. That the slightest bump made her act a fool.

She even told Eddie that she was upset you had fucking baggage and didn't believe anything you said. How you may still had feeling for your ex.

You wanna know who still has feeling for their ex. Gabi!

Finn

I want to believe Finn has been having secret feelings for us. But he has laid none of the groundwork for it. Maybe some moment when your hand touch or when you hang out. If you're trying to pull a Bobby I've been in love with you this whole time moment. You gotta try harder.

The problem is I believe him a little bit because at this stage their no reason to lie. If he wanted to fuck MC he could have many of times without love being the point. Sheesh is the prime example. Finn has zero risk of going home so why say something now.

If Finn wants to actually grab MC he has to be honest. He has to in front of everyone break up with Kat and say he wants to be with MC. Which I doubt he will, maybe because these feelings aren't real or he's scared. It to late in the game for a sudden shift like this.

Just like it way to late to have feeling for anyone new.

Johnny

Johnny admittedly does not care about MC besides loving the drama. He at the very least fucking admits that. He like a good fuck buddy. He not trying to pull any games-

He has been the most honest! He activity involves you in his drama! That's so sad that's the best we fucking got. Some dude who's like I love how messy and fucked your life is I just wanna be all part of it.

RESONANCE BEACH: Fly Away With Me

RESONANCE BEACH masterlist [to be linked]

member: best friend! jaehyun x reader

genre: fluff and angst

wc: 1.3k

warnings: swearing

synopsis: our hearts are trapped in the same dream

"do you feel better?"

"mm, i think it depends on what we're talking about."

jaehyun chuckles, not bothering to look up from his feet sinking into the sand as he walks. his eyes are slightly squinted from the sun, but only because he's blocking you and using his shadow to keep you out of the sunlight.

"regardless, i hope this isn't a wasted trip. didn't drag you across the country for a road trip only for you to not feel any better."

"uh huh," you snicker and hold your palm over your eyes to look up at him. "i mean, i do. it's just... it's gonna take a while."

he nods, looking up on the other side when he hears a dog bark.

it feels like a million years since you first met jaehyun. he grew up well, as attested by the number of girls on his tail in school. yeah, you know it's cliche. the boy best friend who glowed the hell up and suddenly became the famous, popular jock friend.

but it's not like you hung out with him in school that much - or at least enough for the girls to pick on you.

they know you are friends and a good number of them have done enough homework to know that jaehyun's been your best friend for more than a decade but he hangs out with his big ol' boy gang in school.

leaves you out of the spotlight.

that is - until jaehyun self-elected himself as your personal therapist, bodyguard and chauffeur when your boyfriend decides to dump you on graduation night.

whilst it was fun watching jaehyun being held back by johnny and taeyong from bashing the boy's face in, it really wasn't funny having his words play over and over and over again in your head like a broken record.

"i didn't want to break up with you before graduation because i didn't want to be the reason why you failed your exams."

"i didn't wanna wake you up but we're almost there," jaehyun mumbles under his breath, obviously tired from the driving as well. the car slows to a stop at a red light, and he taps on his phone mounted to the dashboard to stop the GPS tracking.

you shuffle and sniffle lightly, pushing yourself up on the passenger's seat and looking out the window. it's a pretty row of shophouses, and the cafes and restaurants along the road were probably more aesthetic than their menus were.

the restaurant - chosen by jaehyun simply hitting a digital bottle on his phone and picking the one the mouth landed on - was something more like a jazz bar with classy ribs and al funghi linguines.

he didn't really care that you weren't hungry, not when he was.

the strawberry milkshake slurps loudly as he inhales, his hands tightly gripping onto the glass as the both of you watch haechan and mark bicker in the group chat.

you wouldn't describe your friendship with jaehyun as stellar; role model-like. it's not.

you've had your fair share of fights with him- yelling at each other, physical fighting (and by physical fighting, you truly do mean pulling his hair and sometimes he shoves you too).

of course, you'd only allow it because you've given him so many 'gender-equality' speeches, and on top of that, the 15-year friendship? not going to stop him from picking a physical fight with you.

but jaehyun knows when to stop. he knows if he's gone too far or how many more words he can hurl at you before you crack under pressure.

he knows how far he can go before you need to be held in his arms, crying into his shirt and letting you hit him and shove him away - yeah, i know what you're thinking.

sounds like a boyfriend. sounds like that universally known best friends-who-are-probably-in-love-with-each-other trope. it does.

and it is.

the thing is - we already knew.

kind of.

it's in the sweets and snacks he used to give you before and after school if you weren't dating anybody. he was careful not to when you had a boyfriend, but otherwise... you'd lost count of how many people would ask if you two were dating.

you were pretty sure jaehyun had lied and told people you were dating, but it never got out far enough for word to spread. especially not when you were the uglier, quieter best friend of the duo.

"you should ask them to pack the truffle fries, we're not gonna be able to finish it."

jaehyun looks up from his phone and squints at you. "try me."

"you're gonna puke later when you realise you've eaten more than you can digest."

"when have i ever had so much that i can't digest it?"

gently rolling your eyes, you sigh and sink back into the sofa seat. the fries crunch as he jabs the pieces with his fork, shoving them into his mouth like he hadn't had a plate of pasta and some chicken nuggets.

it does get boring with jaehyun sometimes because he's so mellow with his friends he doesn't get into as much shit as the younger ones do; he's never the source of drama.

but he's comforting when you're back at the beach (only because the holiday house was a 5-minute walk from it), and he's holding your shoes because you're too busy screaming about your skirt getting wet.

it's not uncommon for people to question your friendship with him, because you were either too similar or too much of an opposite from each other. most people think he's sweet and caring - which he is - but not with you.

he's brutal and has a strange sense of tough love - because he knows that's the kind you need.

"scream any more and you'll just about wake the rest of the neighbourhood up," he groans, knowing when to step back when the waves crash into your calves.

"why are they so fucking irregular-" you stumble and step clumsily all over the sand, the water and grains getting stuck to your legs and all over your skirt. finally, you give in and strut away from shore, leaving footprints in the sand as you walk towards him.

"think you just lack a sense of rhythm and pacing," he sniggers, yawning as he turns to face the holiday house.

you snort, used to his mockery. reaching out to get your shoes, jaehyun simply turns and walks off with them in his hands.

you'll never deny loving jaehyun - in whatever ways anybody else can imagine or experience, you probably have that with him.

platonic. romantic. hate.

what do people really mean when they say soulmates?

is it the way they complete each other or the way they complement one another?

is it the way they bicker but make up in hot kisses or lovingly press their foreheads together and wish till death does them apart?

god, actually - anything but those.

the thought tickles a funny bone in you, and jaehyun hears your giggle when he comes out of the bathroom with damp hair and his water-spotted shirt.

"what is it? thought of a new insult for me?"

"maybe," you rub your eyes and turn to look at him, giving him a tiny smile before turning back to the ocean stretched out beyond the balcony.

"guess I'm never gonna find that out then," he groans as he sits, pulling his feet in and hugging the arches. "i do hope this trip was a-"

"yeah, it was," you whisper, just loud enough for him to hear. "thanks."

"you're welcome."

you look down through the corners of your eyes and catch him staring at you, eyes glimmering like the stars you could see in the night sky.

"you're lucky we've known each other for like half our lives now, else i wouldn't hesitate to punch a tooth out from your mouth."

he chuckles, reaching over to press his knuckle into your thigh. "but you won't. you love me too much to do that."

a snort runs through your throat.

probably.

MATSUOKA RIN x READER (Prompt list here)

Warnings: smut, protected sex, a bit of angst but ends in fluff.

4. "You look so pretty underneath me."

5. "You are so fragile under my touch."

A/n: Hello love. I am sorry that this took long. Here you go @nctzens-world 😬❤

Hair messed up, head resting on the bench in the locker room as Rin thrusted his cock in you.

The swimming tournament just ended, he was so pleased after finally clearing out the mess in his head and grasping a hold on his dreams. Now even after all the drama, you still cheered your bestfriend.

Rin knew he did wrong trying to cut ties with you just because you always tell him to stop overthinking. He knew he messed up. Then why? Why were you still there shoting his name oh so proudly. Why were you still even beside him after all that humiliation. You were someone who gave him hope, who tried to help him and he was unconscious about that. But not anymore.

"Y/n, wait up", he called when he saw you leaving.

"I was just here to remind you who you really are.", you replied as you recognised the familiar voice. "As long as you keep moving forward, it's alright with me. Now if you excuse me, I need to leave", you explained gulping down the pain of not being able to hug your bestfriend after such an epic win.

"No. You can't leave"

"You don't tell me what to do", you kept walking towards the exit. Soon Rin clenched your wrist and sprinted towards the locker room with you.

"Wha-"

"Shhhh", he shushed covering his mouth.

"I know you won't let me talk, won't let me explain myself until I do this. So please just let me cover your god damn mouth for a while.", he demanded. You just nodded giving him a chance. Just this last chance. I swear if something humiliating happens, I won't talk to him again, you tried to comfort yourself.

"I know I fucked up, and I fucked up real bad. I don't even have anything to explain at this point. I am well aware I was an ass to you. But......", there was a long pause he took which seemed like he didn't plan on having this conversation with you.

"But I just realized, you are someone I need. I took you for granted without even being aware of it. But when I see you on the bleachers screaming my name.....there's something that lights up within. Something that I would like to hold on to."

"Wham mphh ymhh mhwen?", you tried to speak but how can you with his big ass hands shutting you up.

"Heh?", rin questioned then realised his hands were covering your words."Ohh", he took his hands off as you glaced in anger towards him

"What do you mean?", you asked in genuine confusion. "I don't know. You know I am not good with words. Look. All I am saying is I am incomplete with you.......and maybe in a...romantic way".

"I still don't know what you're-", he was tired of you being dense so he straight up pressed his lips on yours. You weren't able to retain what the fuck is happening but his lips felt so good that you let him continue. After a while things started to heat up and everyone in the school club had left.

The slight kisses became more aggressive as he entwined his hands in yours and pushed you against the locker. You both were hungry for each other's touch. It felt like you've been longing for this moment.

No words spoken until now, just the room filled with slight moans. You were so busy exploring his tongue that didn't even realise you both had stripped each other in the spur.

"Like what you see?", he said smirking making you drool over his fully visible and hard length. How can you not like it? "We can't do it here, what if someone comes in?", you panicked. "Don't worry, only I have the key and everyone else left a while ago", he said opening his metal locker, removing a small box of condom.

It made you question some things, "So do you always fuck people in the locker room?", you asked him.

"Nah. This is just because someone once told me to always be prepared.", no doubt, they were the words you told him in your childhood when he was panicking to dive into the water for the first time. You smiled.

Rin clenched your hair pulling you into another kiss with one hand while the another was attiring his cock in the condomn

He placed you on the metal bench, the coldness of it making you shiver.

"Gonna go in baby", he notified as he pushed his cock inside making chills run down your body. "Holy shi--. You're so big", you almost cursed at the size inside you.

He waited for you adjust and then started thrusting in and out. He placed his hands each on your side near the hollow space dividing your neck and shoulder. "You look so pretty underneath me", the words making you blush as you stared in his eyes.

Rin increased the pace, shoving it harder. "Ahh.....ohh...ohh ohh Rin!"

"Yeah you like that? F-fuck! You feel so good", he cursed watching how you take all of him.

"Rin mm gonna c- Ohh...gonna gum"

"Yeah baby? cum for me", he demanded.

"Ohhh fuck Rin, fuck I am cumming, please don't sto- Oh yesss", you cried as your climax hit you. Rin fucked you as he chased his own high.

The room that was just now filled with moans and groans was now silent. He cleaned you up, giving you his spare clothes from his locker. It felt loose and big but still comfortable. You sniffed it noticing how it smelled of chlorine. "Why sniff that when the real one is right here babe?", he caught you. "I was just checking if this reeks of your stupid sweat", you rolled your eyes. "Well, seemed like you were enjoying that sweat a couple of minutes ago", he smirked making you glare at him.

Rin picked you up in his arms and took you to the swimming pool. The bright moon reflecting it's light on the water making it look like a pool of diamonds. You sat as his big body covered you from the back practically hugging you and massaging your shoulders and thighs. The touch of his warm hands kneading your muscles made you melt in him.

"Mhmm, you're so fragile under my touch", he chuckled, never saw you so vulnerable.

"It's not my fault, I deserve this after what we did. Don't be so high and mighty of yourself", you pouted making him grin again.

"Did it hurt?", he asked with concern in his rose pink eyes which the moonlight was making more beautiful.

Lucifer 5B: Cutting off Touch to Spite Your Fans

Spoiler warning: This post assumes you've watched all of Lucifer, season 5, part B.

CW: There's plenty I like about season 5, but this is a negative post. I know not everyone is up for negativity about the things they love. I also generally avoid it and (try to) keep my mouth shut about things I don’t like in most spaces. It’s good etiquette. But this is my space, and I have thoughts specifically about purity culture and the treatment of sexuality and trauma in fiction. You’ve been warned!

---

I'm a professional writer (not in TV). I've worked with enough bad clients, editors, and other writers to recognize some hallmark behaviors in how both Fox and Netflix gave Lucifer's writers incredibly difficult, unfair, and frankly weird situations to create through.

Fox did them dirty, interfering and ordering too many eps in S3. Netflix did them dirty, ordering 10 eps for S4 when it clearly needed ~13. Then Netflix ordered 10 "final" eps for S5—then, just kidding(!), 6 more after they'd done their writing for the 10. (What the fuck?) And then Netflix ordered 10 more for a "final-final" S6 after the writers had done their best to tell their whole story in S5. (MORE what the fuck.)

Talk about whiplash for creators, and half of those who consume content don't even care to understand such creative pain.

So, there are problems on multiple fronts. There's much I'll forgive writers, accordingly. I go into most shows expecting plotting/pacing issues. I look, instead, for characters and relationships that will triumph over those issues.

Heart is what the show Lucifer has always had in spades, both in its characters and in the immensely committed, wonderful ways the actors have tried to realize the characters' humor, love, trauma, and—most importantly—struggle to find healing. Yet, when given the opportunity to show health alongside another in a relationship, the writers/directors of 5B chose to remove most sexual humor and physical intimacy from their female lead and bi/pan characters to, I feel, sanitize them and troll fans. What happened?

Well, for one, say hi to showrunner Joe Henderson bragging about how the writers decided to be colossal dicks to the fans who helped secure their jobs:

From CBR's 'Lucifer Showrunner Joe Henderson Dissects Season 5B's Chaos'

Have we not suffered sidelined/repressed female characters, "bury your gays," and, oh, Chloe fucking a serial killer enough? Must we also say hello to neutered relationships once characters find stable love (whether same or opposite sex)? The result of withdrawing more sexual humor and physical intimacy from paired characters is an uncomfortable suggestion that they're reformed by "pure" love—more chaste and aloof, more acceptable in polite society. This is only done to end-game committed relationships.*

The writers seem to think they're edging the viewers, but the reality is they're taking traumatized minority characters who rejoiced in sexual freedom, but lacked and craved an emotional connection, and showing they can't have both, or, if they find both, it will never last. They've taken hypersexual characters and said, here, even they can have the love and commitment they desire, but some physical intimacy, especially sexual intimacy, is what they must trade for it.

There's always one more case, phone call, or coincidence interrupting intimacy. Traumas or deaths deserving emotional and physical comfort go on to receive none or only one aspect. Done sometimes, it's fine. Done always, it's sick. Dan dies, and there's no hugging? Really?†

Don't craft characters who crave a full range of emotional and physical intimacy, only to rob them of related scenes every chance you get. That's not complexity. That's bad writing. To even achieve this in 5B, they must squash banter and sideline their female lead yet again.

What a gift to purity culture, which tells us to be more palatable by bottling and buttoning up. That sex should be taboo, but violence glorified. That there is no heated desire among "Good Women," that sexual minorities of all genders shouldn't experience it much at all.

5A is so good. At the very least, it's on the right path (clearly, since the plot payoff from 5x01 to 5x16 is great). It shows a couple working through difficulties and trauma, toward each other emotionally and physically. It even pokes fun at people who think an established relationship means the death of romantic and sexual appeal (a tired and hugely sexist trope). And then... And then 5B reverses that, pretending established relationships are barely physical during emotional struggle and that the honeymoon phase doesn't exist. It robs characters of joy and comfort through physical intimacy when they need it to move through or push beyond trauma.

It's telling that so many fan wishes for Deckerstar are about healing touch and existing in each other's spaces: amending Chloe's spicy PDA history with Cain, Chloe caring for Lucifer's wings, soft family scenes a la Monopoly night and shared meals, morning-afters, etc. Reasonable fans aren't asking for porn; they're asking for connection and humanity. They're asking for writers not to forget characters (and, yes, including hypersexual characters) on their way from Point A to Point B.

That 5B lacks these things isn't a "tee-hee frustrating" slow burn or a cockblock. It is, in so many scenes, excising from characters a core part of what nearly every human and fictional monster craves. And it's a slap in the face to the "found family" trope. When you remove or tamp down a casual physical intimacy that was previously there, characters and their relationships fall flat, even if only partially. They become blunt weapons creators wield against watchers or readers begging for scraps of warmth.

Minorities shouldn't be killed off with ease, and they shouldn't be stifled with ease, either.‡ And maybe there shouldn't be deep trauma driving a wedge in a romantic relationship if you're not going to explore it through that relationship, too—physical intimacy included.

I'm still reserving some judgment. I loved the family drama and the end. (Although, again, where was the physical intimacy? No intimacy when Chloe or Lucifer return from the dead? Really?) I see where they could do awesome things, and could have done more if not for network BS.

But I no longer trust Lucifer's writers and directors. They thought S5 was the end. And what they gave us of Deckerstar, of the relationship that symbolizes health and healing in their fictional world, is this: cold distance. And they got a kick out of doing it, apparently.

If this is a "love letter" to me as a fan, I'm burning it. I can only hope S6 course corrects. If not, the writers who made these choices shouldn't write sexual minority and/or traumatized characters again. If you don't understand most of us, you should stop fucking using us.

* If you don't believe me about the differences between casual/short-term relationships and end-game relationships in Lucifer, go back and look at how Lucifer and Maze are with strangers in all the other seasons. Look at Chloe's sex dream, her propositioning of Lucifer in a library, her sex with Pierce in the evidence closet. Look at how much physical intimacy there is between Lucifer and Eve, and then between Eve and Maze (if only as a ploy). Across seasons, there are sex/kink jokes and scenes galore.

Compare this to how these same characters are portrayed when with their end-game loves. Notice the gentle pecks on the lips and the huge general drop in sexual humor between 5A and 5B. How boring. Where's the spice these characters had? Also, give me a damn break. Buttoning up in a relationship is contrary to four and a half seasons of emotional character work that's been communicating security in our relationships is personally freeing.

† I'm not just talking about sexual intimacy in this post, though that is a big part of it because of the characters. 5B lacked crucial found family scenes, too.

Chloe should have been at God's family dinner, but being so would have prevented more ham-fisted angst. Chloe never even has a one-on-one with God, probably because that would demand a straight answer about her miracle status, which I would guess will be used to drive yet another wedge between her and Lucifer next season, but we'll see.

In multiple before- and after-work scenes, there was no reason for Lucifer and Chloe to be apart more, even, than they were in S1 and S2. Monopoly night was in S3, for crying out loud. Most horrifying of all? No one touches Chloe after Dan's death, but Trixie. Meanwhile, Linda, Amenadiel, Ella, Maze, and Lucifer all receive physical comfort. No wonder Chloe's tired of being strong.

‡ If you don't think it's offensive that they stuffed all their wlw content for two hypersexual characters into a few clunky, irrational, and chaste scenes that rushed I love yous, a marriage-like proposal, and the mention of soulmates, I don't know what to tell you other than get off my lawn.

telling my truth. jk.

ok, sometimes its so stupid to think about my whole senior high school experience without sounding like im "hating" or "blaming" other people because of the narrative that i have. it's frustrating because it just shows how some people are so dense about how they affected others; in this case, me.

like, COME ON—honestly, how do u expect me to just move on from shit when i felt so shitty for the longest time and i feel like, even now, i haven't been disconnected from the issues from those years.

I have made mistakes, admittedly so. i also wasn't the perfect student, friend, nor an acquaintance. but was it really necessary for it to be so dramatic? i had friendships that felt like i was maintaining a toxic relationship, so much so that my responsibilities were as if like i was their romantic partner. which was, oh my fucking god, so fucking annoying. IMAGINE- JUST IMAGINE- i have a VERY healthy and awesome friendship with my best friend (whom i consider my sibling at this point and my platonic soulmate), and its not even a tad bit high maintenance. imagine how it felt maintaining a friendship that was pushing me off the edge, forcing me to cater to their needs because for them, it is considered my responsibility as their friend. i have put this in the most vague way but, isnt that shitty? isnt that such a shitty thing to do?

now, dont get wrong. i liked them. i liked moments with them, but boy, do i hated some of it. as clichè as it sounds, it made me realize who was a "real" friend and who is not. "real" friend, meaning a person whom i am comfortable with and also having them comfortable with me whatever my mood was. and i was grateful for it. but goddamn, the drama was so unnecessary, i lost interest in trying to get the best out of everyday. my world was more quiet tho, when i cut off some of our connections, and i think its better that way and even now- boundaries are set, lesser fucks are given from me, responsibilities are no longer expected because i didnt keep up with their pace anymore. and for me, THATS AMAZINGLY FREEING.

its just so sad that this is just a quarter of how my senior high school experience went. i mainly focused on how i felt, emotionally. but yeah, it was also one of the worst mental state i was in. anyway! i never wanted pity or anyone to feel sorry about me, because this happens to everyone too, but idk really. i just hope people can be more aware of other people. be more specific in what you want, and not make it your friends' responsibilities to make it work for you. YOUR HAPPINESS IS YOUR OWN RESPONSIBILITY. NOT YOUR PARTNER'S, NOT YOUR FRIENDS', NOT YOUR FAMILY'S. dont expect anyone else to make you happy; use them to make u happy, sure. but not in a way that you're going to be disappointed just because they can't make you happy when you want to. that is just unfair, cruel, and downright fucking stupid of you.

but okay, footnote i guess?

i mean, its so vague but i think the people im talking about can see it. and if you guys are reading this, i just wished you apologized. i just wished you guys cared about me the way i cared about you. nonetheless, it has been great—the first months, it really was. but i... dont want to be close to you guys anymore. and it was already done, and you guys didn't care. at all. were you dense? maybe. did you guys ignore me? probably. but now, i dont really care anymore. because even if you are now aware of it, it's now your choice if it's your problem or not. what im definitely sure of, is that it's definitely not mine anymore.

i'm more strict about my boundaries now, i guess i let myself loose too much that time. silly me, eh?

Have you seen the recent photo they posted on Twitter?? Do you think they’re more real now!

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy. LOL, I got a few of the same asks that are asking me similar things, so I'm just going to elaborate everything in one ask. Consider this an official opinion because I got really toasted about it.

I really wanted to retweet the nonsense I saw being said last night and comment on them, but no. Because obviously.

First, I'm not denying that I was flailing when I saw that tweet posted. Any Jikook content, I'll take it! Seeing them two together makes the butterflies in my heart all frenzied, and I did--for a moment--think that it was a self-timed shot. That would've really been something else.

That said, some Jkkrs started superimposing a romantic tone on the photo because they're in the same picture together with a beautiful backdrop, and if we're not breaking down all the things going on, it looks kind of-sort of intimate.

But the thing is, they were totally omitting the fact that Taehyung was there (and I don't know how much of this is true, but people were saying Hobi might've been there as well). Three/four people does not a romantic date make--unless you're into the poly thing (which cool, less drama for you). And it's not the fact that they were ignoring a third or fourth party involved on its own, it was more that they were taking a scene and running away with it, and then spreading it like that was EXACTLY what was happening. Like maybe step on the brakes and think about what you're saying before you say it?

Then the usual narrative of one of them admiring the scene but the other admiring the first one as the scene started floating around, that caught on fire, and it spread like a virus. Like? Uh?? The two were photographed having a conversation, most likely, if you looked close enough at how Jimin is angled (you don't even need to look that close). If anything, the shot seemed candid, and that was the beauty of that photo to me. (Side note: I'm not saying that one half of Jikook looking at the other while the other half is unaware doesn't exist, but that doesn't appear to be the case in this recent photo.)

I'm not saying that the photo isn't cute or pretty (it is now my lockscreen, thank you very much, along with other Jkkrs, I'm sure). And Jkkrs are allowed to paint the town red with Jikook being Jikook, but I wish there was some cognizance that they're in a group setting before making these overarching statements at how romantic they're being and how it's obvious they're boyfriends. I'd have a different outlook on this if they were alone together, and I'd have a field day with it, but they weren't.

To clarify, I'm not talking about the Jkkrs who were appreciating the photo for what it was--their faves being shot together and sharing a moment that happened to be caught on camera. If the photo adds further proof to you that they're real, more power to you. If you're a Jkkr supporter and disagree with me entirely, let me hear it from your point of view. Is there something I'm missing?

But on the other side of the coin--I rarely like bringing them into this, but some Tkkrs really had some marbles clacking in their brains or something. I was on board with them trying to remind everyone that Taehyung was there, but a few of them got too arrogant about it and started acting like Jkkrs were intentionally isolating Jikook? Omg, shut the fuck up. Tkkrs do the same fucking thing as is their right to do so (Harry Styles concert and the Vminkook vlive, to name a few, despite the fact that they weren't alone). But the more damning argument to this is that Jikook were the only ones in the photo, what or who do you think they were cropping? NOBODY. Good god on a cracker, what the fuck.

Edited to add: A user in the replies had this to correct about the photo - “Agree almost entirely, except JHope wasn't there. He went to Venice this week, while the photos of Vminkook were from last week.” I’ll leave my text as is, however, to show what I’d originally thought.
