You look around.
As you look to your left, you notice a door. It doesn’t say ‘Exit’, but it’s a door leading outside it seems.
You look to your right, you see and feel what seems to be hot steam emanating from just out of your direct view. You also hear.. feminine giggles, chuckles and chatter. Huh.
And of course you bring your attention back in front of you, on one of the Alphabet Blocks- there appears to be a Sleeping Kitty, peacefully dozing…

can you do shadow milk x ticklish reader
like shadow milk savouring their suffering while reader screaming in terrified laughter
AN: HEHEHE, HE IS SO SILLY, I LOVE HIM. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS REQUEST ♡ I made a short oneshot and some headcanons (bc this is my pooksay)
Tumblr media
Shadow Milk Cookie x Ticklish! GN! Reader
Warnings: Just fluff
-Deserved-
Today was a rather odd day. There were no plays currently being performed in the theater, which meant Shadow Milk Cookie should be bothering you non-stop right now.. but he was nowhere to be seen.
You hadn't been looking for him, persay, but now you were beginning to feel a bit on edge.
Something hasn't happened to him, right? You're sure he's capable of defending himself.
You had even asked some of the other people in the theater, but they hadn't seen him either.
After lazily walking around the theater hoping to bump into your beloved boyfriend, you decided to just return home.
You would enter your house, and it was in that moment, that you had finnaly heard him.
"Doll~ A little help please?" Shadow Milk Cookie was sitting on your couch, tied up in a ribbon.
You stared at him in disbelief, with an underlying hint of disappointment.
"How exactly did you end up like this?" You would ask him before closing the door behind you.
"The details are not important. What is important is that you untie me!" Shadow Milk would say while grinning and staring at you with those unblinking eyes.
You roll your eyes before sitting next to him and starting to undo the ribbon.
It wasn't even done that well. Shadow Milk could have undid it himself if he wanted to.
The ribbon was undone swiftly.
"Oh thank you dove! I don't know what I'd do without you."
He would immediately cuddle up to you, warping his arms around your waist and giving you kisses on the cheek.
You were not impressed.
"So, can you finally tell me why you were tied up? I'm curious."
"Ah, I just wanted you to touch me. And I must say, I think my plan went off without a hitch!" His smile would never falter.
"You could have just asked."
Shadow Milk Cookie would frown and begin to whine.
"But that's soooo boring. I'm suppose to be entertaining! And besides, you were taking forever to come back!!"
He would begin to pout.
"I shouldn't let you get away with that."
Cold fingers could be immediately felt attacking your sides.
"H- hey! What are you-" You would cut yourself off with nonstop laughing.
"I'm not doing anything you don't deserve," he would say with a mischievous grin.
You would just keep screaming and laughing, barely being able to get out an 'I can't breathe-'
Shadow Milk would just shrug and continue on with his shenanigans.
What a loving boyfriend ♡
HEADCANONS BELOW:
Figured out you were ticklish very early on in your relationship
Has used it against you ever since
He's deceptively strong and can pin you down super easily
You never get away from him unless he's had his fun
If you ever annoy him or do something mildly upsetting: tickles. Nonstop
Really likes your laugh, so that might also be a reason he does it so much
His hands are always cold too, and it makes it worse :,(
He won't even stop for the excuse I can't breathe, because he thinks it funny seeing you so helpless
If you beg really nicely, or at least attempt to beg, maybe he'll stop
100% jumps out of nowhere and tickles you
He says it's your fault since your reactions are so entertaining
Very flexible to, so dodges your attacks pretty easily
If you do hit him while in a laughing fit, he doesn't stop for ten times longer
Says it's your punishment

Since I did a comparative post for Amanda and Abigail, I thought I'd write one for Adam and Abigail too (which I think I've done already for an ask buttt I'm going to try and be more thorough).
Post will be kinda all over the place, I apologise.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
First of all, both of their characters revolve around their relationships with others. Even in the few scenes we have of them when they're alone, it's not really about them persay, but how their lives entangle with those around them. Abigail, always interrupted by the mess of her father, dreaming of how she helped him, and Adam, going home to develop photos of Lawrence, then getting kidnapped by Jigsaw mainly due to his ties with the doctor.
They're trying their hardest to live and in the end are punished for it. Abigail, on the more extreme side, doing her father's bidding so she won't die by his hands, and Adam taking photos of cheating spouses and lairs so they he won't die from a lack of starvation.
But not only do they crave survival, they crave individuality. Abigail, desperate to break away from her father's image and Adam, wishing he never knew Lawrence so he wouldn't be in that god forsaken bathroom. But they're failed. Failed by those who swore, who promised they'd protect them. Hannibal kills Abigail and Lawrence leaves Adam, even in their deaths, they revolve around another, even in death, independence is not granted to them.
Now, personality wise they're quite similar too, their biggest shared trait being manipulation.
Manipulate, lie, withhold information, trust no one. These are the foundations that they're both built upon, and they have good reason to be so secretive. Lawrence has been told to kill Adam, and it seems everyone is out to get Abigail, so they have to tread carefully.
And yet, these are characters are so desperate for affection, for a loving hand, and ever so slowly, that mask, that wall they've built around themselves slowly crumbles. Adam tells Lawrence of the situation with his family, who he truly is (albeit, forced to) and Abigail confesses to being an accomplice to her father's crimes. They show what they truly are, vulnerable and scared. In need of someone to embrace and tell them that everything is going to be alright, that they'll be ok. And where does that get them? Dead.

I don’t ship most of these myself , but your rant/ramble posts on Les Mis ships are funny so I genuinely wanted your opinion on these 👁
1. Enjoltaire
2. Valvert
3. Enjonine
4. Marisette (or whatever Marius x Cosette was called)
5. Javonine (Javert and…Eponine 😭)
6. Marionine (A name a just guessed for Marius x Eponine because I wasn’t bothered to look it up)
7. and uhhh.. Granjonine (I think that was the name)
well hello darling! i live to entertain lol lets get into it i might have to put this under a cut because i think its obvious i have a rambling issue
Enjoltaire : a classic for good reason. they seemed really base level to me at first because i watched the movie first, but once i read the brick and really saw their dynamic i fell for them HARD. for me the beauty of this pairing is really rooted in the substance of their individual characters as opposed to like a romantic relationship. idk its so difficult for me to verbalize why i love them so much i think i just love the idea of finding common ground despite difficulties. enjolras and grantaire mirror each other in such a beautiful way that i feel the musical/movie couldn't really capture without demoting it to a puppy love grantaire/mean enjolras dynamic idk i have such an issue with some portrayals of them because i feel like they create a victim/abuser situation where there wasn't one but that's like a whole post within itself anyway i feel like im getting incoherent i love exr with every fiber of my fucking being just read the brick if you don't get it ok the movie and musical just dont do it justice and for the love of god avoid the fics written in 2012/2013 after the movie hype its all wRONGGGG (i love you george blagden but you created a twink grantaire movement) (they pull each others pigtails okay its a mutual obsession) (enjolras why don't you just ignore him baby? glutton for punishment my dear we all know if you hated him you wouldn't let him hang around) (anyway) i should make a seperate post about my exr feelings bc i could talk ab them for hours
2. Valvert: okay this is where i feel like i can be unpopular with the fandom. i fucking hate this ship. like physically, spiritually, all that. its one of those that i kinda lose respect for the person bc its literally a cop/prisoner thing. its not enemies to lovers. its not a hate love thing. javert's a fucking cop. valjean is his victim. the whole idea of people romanticizing this makes me feel so insanely icky and i think the point of the story has just gone RIGHT over some folks' heads please take a step back and think about it. neolib behavior sorry not sorry
3. Enjonine: enjolras is gay. just like, straight up in the brick enjolras is a gay man. this ship is spawned from straight girls who saw aaron tveit and use eponine as their not like other girls posterchild. just a whole bunch of hetero nonsense. same behavior as the joseph quinn enj x reader bs. honey thats a homosexual man and can we please stop reducing eponine to needing a boyfriend she needs a stable home and a goddamn therapist fucking hell
4. Marisette: okay. i LOVE THEM. i'm a cosette stan myself, and i'm a huge fan of a gooey love at first sight situation. they contrast my love for exr in the sense that they're a very easy love. their parts in the book literally make me SWOOOOOON i can put aside my beef with marius as a combeferre kin to appreciate how sweet they are
5. Javonine??: im sorry wh aht. did the snape x hermione shippers leak into the lm fandom or am i being fucking punked im not discussing this its obvious why this is wrong please tell me its obvious y'all are NASTY
6. Marionine: eh. eh. i mean, like i said with enjonine eponine's problems are not gonna be solved with a dude. i'm really not opposed to them, persay, its just that eponine's love for marius is so incredibly dependent and rooted more in her personal trauma than actual love, so i feel a little weird with them sometimes. sometimes it just gives anti cosette vibes (cough cough bc of the bullshit love triangle angle that the musical markets cough cough) so i tread very carefully with them
7. Granjonine: again what in the damn hell. i'm not dignifying this shit they could be besties but for the love of god george blagden did a number on the straight girls. STOP PROJECTING ONTO EPONINE IM GONNA LOSE MY FUCKING MIND LEAVE HER ALONE
thanks for the ask lovely, i do love rambling even though these ships are baffling lmaoooo

We have a new citizen in Mount Phoenix:
          Kim Seungmin, a 22 year old son of Hades.          He is a librarian at Phoenix Library & Museum.
FC NAME/GROUP: Kim Seungmin / Stray Kids CHARACTER NAME: Kim Seungmin AGE/DATE OF BIRTH: 22 / September 22nd, 2000 PLACE OF BIRTH: Seoul, South Korea OCCUPATION: Librarian at the Phoenix Library & Museum HEIGHT: 5’10 WEIGHT: 123lbs DEFINING FEATURES:
He has an aura of quiet and calm radiating around him
He has a sharp and calculating gaze that can sometimes feel like he’s seeing right through you, that he can see who you are at your core with just a glance
He wears glasses sometimes
Piercings: Three in his left ear (2 lobe, 1 cartilage), three in his right ear (1 lobe, 2 cartilage).
PERSONALITY: Seungmin is… quiet. He used to talk more, be more open, friendly, and comfortable interacting with people. But after a few years of being “too” friendly and “too” open, saying things some people would rather not hear or things they refused to believe and responding with hostility or anger– Seungmin just stopped talking and interacting unless he was spoken to first. He also just… dropped the friendliness too.
 Instead of friendly or open remarks, Seungmin started to respond with more bluntness and an undercurrent of an extremely sharp tongue. He takes no shit from people and can be rather sarcastic and to the point in a way that leaves no room for questions.
He’s not unfriendly persay, just very hard to get to know. He can be a bit of a savage as well, laying into people with biting comments if they trigger his defenses and unwillingness to talk more openly.
He says what he thinks and will not back down when his opinions are challenged, he argues his point to be sure he’s understood and to show he’s not a weak person. He’s not mean or nasty, just sharp because he learned that’s the only way to talk to people sometimes. He has a good heart deep down, his care for people or creatures who truly matter to him bringing out a much gentler nature. It takes work to get behind all his defenses but once you do you have one of the most loyal and true to heart people you could ever meet. He’s fiercely loyal to his friends, protective and caring.
If you betray him however, break that trust you gained after all the work you had to put into getting through all those layers he has built up… you better run because hell hath no fury like a child of hades scorned.
HISTORY: As a baby, Seungmin had been left alone in a ditch shivering and cold with a threadbare blanket wrapped around his small body. He’d been found later, nearly frozen to death and quickly brought to a community home for abandoned children. Everything was fine until he was old enough to talk, often pointing out how people had things following them. ‘Shadows’ that seemed to want to speak with them.
For some, they realized they were deceased relatives.
Often, they were far too creeped out by that fact to really understand so rather than talking to Seungmin about it- they punished him. They said nasty things and often claimed that was the reason he’d never be adopted out. After all that- Seungmin stopped. He stopped talking about the shadows and instead turned to reading. He read a lot, consumed a lot of books of all kinds and learned languages for fun.
He never did get adopted out either, his past talk of shadows tarnishing his ‘adoptability’ for people in the years that followed.
Soon enough, the moment he was turning eighteen had come and he ended up on the streets. For most places when a child ages out of the system, said child was supposed to be given a starting point of sorts. A small apartment and a job. Seungmin was not given that and instead spent his eighteenth birthday trying to find a dry and comfortable enough area to shelter from the oncoming cold.
Two days later, Seungmin met a small pack of stray dogs and upon observing some odd behaviors from them he chanced asking them if they knew a good place to shelter from the cold. To his surprise, the dogs began leading him to a place he could get out of the cold.
It was a stray animal haven, and there he met the first ever parental figure he’d ever had. A kindly woman with a connection between her and her strays that surpassed all expectations. It was there he was given a bed, a roof to sleep under, and food to eat. He stayed there for a few years, learning what he could to help the woman and her strays up until one day he was approached by a Spirit. For most of his life he’d only known them as shadows but this time he could see the spirit so clearly he knew what it was. The spirit had a connection with the woman he was staying with and though he was hesitant… Once again Seungmin decided to try becoming a mediator between a living person and their deceased connection.
This time he received positivity, a thank you. Instead of fear and rejection.
After that, the woman told him about a place. A place where he could find answers and a place where he’d be welcomed by others like himself (others like her as well, though she never sought it out as she never needed it as much as others do). She told him her suspicions about who his father might be, as it had to be Hades. There was no other reason why he could see and interact with spirits like he could as well as have the dogs interact with him in the ways they do. Like he was their leader that they would follow without question.
She urged him to travel to Mount Phoenix, a place where he might find more answers about himself and what he could do. And so, with clear instructions on how to get there- Seungmin packed up his few belongings, promised to visit the kindly woman when he could now and then, and made his way to Mount Phoenix to see what awaited him there.
PANTHEON: Greek CHILD OF: Hades POWERS:
The Ability to Sense, Summon, and Speak to Ghosts
Dogs obey him without question
STRENGTHS:
He will not waver in the face of unfairness or adversity.
He knows how to protect himself and others.
He can easily tell when someone is bullshitting him. He learned how to pay attention to people’s nervous tics and generalized habits from a very young age.
WEAKNESSES:
His sharp tongue and blunt nature makes him difficult to approach.
He doesn’t give chances to people very often. If someone fucks up once, they don’t get another chance.
He has difficulty opening up to others and trusting people too deeply. He’s spent too long building up his defenses to keep himself safe and unhurt.

Okay yes yes yes and yes to all of this.
Big infodump coming up. I may repeat quite a bit that OP already said but I just want to add some more information and my own thoughts on this cause it's fascinating. Both from a historical point of view and when it comes to changing historical details for a fictional story.
I personally think that basically... Just a lot of historical details got neglected in this, specifically in regard to Puritan culture. (And the whole 1613 thing.)
The main reason I believe that they were Puritans is basically: it would be really really really weird if they weren't.
And this is because in the early 1600s (I'm not sure about anything after that I'll be honest) the only people in Massachusetts and Connecticut were Puritans.
Now it may be argued that the people from Jamestown might have wandered up to Massachusetts/Connecticut in the years between 1607 and 1613 (or the 1630s if you think Masha was wrong, which I definitely do) but Jamestown was established primarily for economic reasons. It was primarily made up of men, so it wasn't meant to be a place to raise a family. So it'd be really REALLY weird for Caleb and Philip (or other children in general) to somehow exist in Jamestown in the first place and then somehow get from Virginia to Connecticut. And there was no reason for the people of Jamestown to go there. They were just doing their economic stuff down in Virginia and had no need to go anywhere else. Their population wasn't really growing at all and they had what they needed where they were. (Those who settled Jamestown were Anglican, by the way.)
Tumblr media
Please enjoy my crappy representation of how far Jamestown is from Connecticut. :P (The yellow dot in Connecticut is about where Wethersfield is, which is a town I'll talk about a bit.)
So then we've got the Pilgrims, who came over on the Mayflower. They were all separatists (Puritans), so they believed that the Church of England (Anglicans) were doing religious stuff wrong. (For good reason, honestly, though their beliefs weren't much better. If I remember correctly from AP world history, the church of England let people buy things called reparations to forgive past sins. So if you were rich, you were set to go to heaven no matter what you did. Which the Puritans, who believed in predestination, thought was awful.) So it'd be extra weird for Anglicans to end up in this area settled by Puritans.
Okay. Wethersfield, Connecticut. Wethersfield calls itself the oldest town in Connecticut, and it was established in the early 1630s. I'm like 85% sure that it is one of the towns that Dana based Gravesfield off of. Wethersfield was founded by the Puritans, and in town there's this old church with a ton of information on its website. Including about witch hunting. (I think Wethersfield is the town that the book The Witch of Blackbird Pond takes place in.) But witch hunting did happen in Wethersfield significantly before the Salem witch trials. (It was pretty common all over to be honest.) There wasn't a ton of hunting persay, mostly trials. (The Puritans were the only group who formally tried witches, the punishment for witchcraft being hanging.) (Oh also you should definitely check out the church's article on witch hunting. It's really really interesting how they address it and kinda funny how they almost try to excuse what happened.)
Wethersfield was established around the time of Gravesfield and honestly, modern day Wethersfield kind of reminds me of modern day Gravesfield. (There's also a Wethersfield historical society.)
Also, with regards to clothing, the clothes they are shown wearing (disregarding Philip's outfit upon arrival in Gravesfield and most of the stuff in the Hollow Mind portraits), they're primarily shown wearing clothing that was common during the revolutionary era. Think Hamilton. Then with the Hollow Mind stuff, suspenders didn't come into common use until the 1800s.
TL;DR: a lot of historical details were screwed up in the Wittebane stuff, but them being Puritans is basically the only thing that makes any semblance of sense.
With regards to the religious stuff, one of the things I love thinking about is how Philip must have adjusted his religious views to justify Caleb's actions and his own actions to "save" Caleb.
For example, the Puritans believed in predestination and that those whose souls were saved would receive a "confirmation" of that, a confirmation being a spiritual experience where they learn for sure that they are among the chosen.
The Puritans did not believe that adhering to their lifestyle saved their souls. They adhered to their strict lifestyles to prove to everyone else that they were the chosen people and that they were above the sins of everyone else because they were chosen. (This is why deviating from the norm and standing out was so bad. It showed to the community that you weren't one of the chosen and you were under the influence of the devil.)
Which is why the "this is for the good of your souls" in Thanks to Them and the "I tried to save your soul" in For the Future felt so weird to me.
Philip didn't want to believe that Caleb wasn't one of the chosen few when he was "corrupted" by a witch and abandoned their way of life. (Because someone who had been chosen to go to heaven would never be tempted by the devil!)
And so at some point over those ~350 years, Philip's beliefs changed to accommodate his view of himself at the savior of humanity and his belief that he could save people's souls by destroying the witches, even though Puritanism taught that the salvation of your soul wasn't a status that could be affected during this life.
Anyways, I'm writing a fic about the Wittebane lore and I'm trying to keep it as historically accurate as I can, so I've set Philip and Caleb's arrival in Gravesfield at 1637, so that they're arriving in a small but growing town that's already had some practices established, such as an unusual fear of witches (or an unusual desire to steal property from those who have been accused of witchcraft).
Also, some of this definitely may be wrong. I probably explained some stuff weirdly so it doesn't come across correctly. And I may have drawn some conclusions with incomplete information. So take this all with a pinch of salt, but if you have more information please let me know!!! This is a topic I'm always willing to learn more about or have my misunderstandings corrected.
Hot take: the Wittebanes were not Puritans
So since Hollow Mind came out there have been a lot of jokes about how the Belos is a crusty old Puritan. And while he is certainly crusty and old, I don’t think he was a Puritan.
I understand why everyone jumps there, when we think of Witch Hunts in Colonial America the very first thing that comes to mind is the Salem Witchcraft Trials. However, the Salem Witchcraft Trials began in 1692, that is 80 years after Masha says the Wittebros showed up in Gravesfield, and 30 years after the events of Elsewhere and Elsewhen.
Tumblr media
If Masha’s information is correct, (which it might not be but we’ll get to that) then Caleb and Philip arrived in Gravesfield in 1613, which is closer in time to the settlement of Jamestown (1607) than the Salem Witchcraft Trials. 
The Pilgrims didn’t even land at pride rock until 1620, seven years after the Wittebros arrived in Gravesfield. The Mayflower Pilgrims were really the group responsible for creating the idea of religious charters. They specifically wanted to leave England to create their own religious society. Many other groups followed, (notably the Massachusetts Bay Colony, which later became the home of the aforementioned Salem Witchcraft Trials) but the Mayflower Pilgrims were the first group of religious extremists who came to America looking for their Zion. 
Prior to that, the motivation to settle the “New World” was mainly financial. Ships were chartered through the Virginia Company. Which as we all remember from our favorite wildly inaccurate and problematic 90s Disney movie, the Virginia Company was in it for the money. The New World had resources and Britian wanted them, damnit, Glory, God, and Gold and the Virginia Company.
That meant, if Caleb and Philip really did arrive in Gravesfield in 1613, their family likely made the trip for financial gain, not religion. If that’s the case they were less likely a member of an obscure group of religious extremists, and more likely to be either Protestant like King James and Queen Elizabeth. (They could have also been Roman Catholic, evidence for that comes later).
“But”, you say, “weren’t Puritans the ones persecuting witches at the time?”
Yes and no. 
In the Americas, Witch Hunts will forever be linked to Puritans, but in Witch Hunting long outdates the Puritans. King James himself, was a witch hunting fanatic, he personally oversaw hundreds of witchtrials. He wrote books about finding witches, and it was specifically the King James endorse translation of the Bible that features the infamous “thou shalt not suffer a witch to live” (in many prior translations the word witch is something more along the line of “sinner” or “evil doer”). By many estimates, upwards of 1500 people were executed for witchcraft as a result of his reign. If we are going with Masha’s 1613 timeline, the brothers would have left England smack dab in the middle of his reign, right after the King James Bible was published.
Tumblr media
(^this GIF has nothing to do with the Owl House, I just love sassy Gay King James in his bird mask, look at this cocky ass bastard, you know him and Belos would have been genocide buddies)
However, I can’t pretend to be focused on some semblance of historical accuracy and take Masha’s information at face value, even in the context of the show it wouldn’t add up because according to the sign we see in Yesterday’s Lie, Gravesfield was established in 1635. 
Tumblr media
(Granted there is a difference between a settlement and a town, it is possible that 1635 was when Gravesfield was officially acknowledged as a town and the boys just lived there pre-establishment). 
However, in the name of historical accuracy, I have to assume Masha got the date wrong, because the English didn’t even settle in Conneticut until the 1630s. The Conneticut Witch Trials began in the 1640s. By this timeline and demographic, the likelihood of Caleb and Philip being Puritans goes up by a lot. 
However, if we look at Philip’s clothes an his goals, there are still signs that don’t point to Puritanism. First look at the clothes Caleb and Philip wear as children:
Tumblr media
Philip’s pants are red and Calebs are green. While it is a myth that Puritans could only wear black, the colors that they were allowed to incorporate into their wardrobe were typically still neutrals (dark yellows and beiges). Green would be pushing it, and red would be unbelievably bold.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Additionally, the ruffles on Philip’s shirt in the journal and Jacob’s book, would have been seen as incredibly vain.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
 The blue/black coat that Caleb wore in the puppet show, and Philip later wears in Elsewhere and Elsewhen and King’s Tide has gold buttons and gold embroidery. Gold and Silver accessories of any kind would have been considered incredibly sinful and conceited. 
Tumblr media
Which would also make it really weird for a Puritan to choose gold to represent himself. Infact his whole emperor authentic is much more reminiscent of the Catholic Pope. His own role as the messenger of the Titan’s will is also very papal in nature.
Finally there is the term he uses, “Witch Hunter General” is an illusion to “Witch Finder General” which was a rank made up and used by Protestant Matthew Hopkins and not really used by any Puritans. Such a title would also probably have seemed pretty vain.
Now you might say, “It’s a fictional story, why does any of this matter?”
The answer is: It does not, but I am high and have ADHD and this was the rabbit hole I fell down.

This fandom knows how to suck the fun out things sometimes lol like telling artists that they shouldn't draw the *listener* characters as femme (when they are *self inserts* lol and can be anything including femme) or getting mad at people for headcanon or rambling about the possible death of characters (like people know it's not gonna happen, but it's fun to talk about sometimes! and if they don't know it isn't gonna happen then who cares?? let people talk about whatever, it's not hurting you). Sometimes I feel like responding, but I don't and just block people instead, but I just don't get what's up with people telling others how to have fun in fandom.
Okay so i really ranted on this one idk i felt i needed to address some random thoughts that are like maybe barely tangentially related to this ask???
TLDR; i agree with you, we should just let people have fun in this fandom for fucks sake.
And thank you so much for this ask it actually felt really good to word soup all my thoughts on this, even if they’re semi-incoherent. I hope you have a lovely day anon💕
Oh yeah for sure. Fun that is even slightly outside the bounds of what is considered “normal” here is ostracized and punished.
I generally see people making OCs to act as the listener characters, or making self inserts, and thats so cool! Its a very unique aspect of this fandom tbh, and i genuinely love that!
Though I said (like a year ago) that i find it strange that sometimes people assert something about the listener characters themselves. Not their OC or SI, but the character. I think asserting specific illnesses or disorders or specific backstories onto characters that are barely characters is a little weird??? Its not like i have a problem with it persay, i just don’t particularly understand the thought process behind it. Cause like in my mind, theyre blank characters for a reason so asserting something about the character as they exist on the channel doesn’t make sense to me. I feel reading too deeply into their behaviors outside of what is explicitly stated and explained in canon kinda defeats the purpose of their place in the story to me. Like the difference between going “my Cutie OC was abused as a child and used their telepathy to read others minds and moods to keep themselves out of harms way from their abusers, and it is now impeding their relationship with Geordie as their coping mechanism is manifesting as abusive behavior” is different from going “Cuties [canon] behavior is because they were abused/autistic and dont understand social cues/relies on telepathy to navigate relationships.” Like one is a headcanon talking about your version of the character, and another is asserting something onto the canon character that isn’t there???
Idk i just dont understand this specific version of headcanons (directly onto canon listener characters as opposed to speaker characters who are actually fleshed out to one degree or another). But that is, still yet, just me complaining LOL. Aside from vague side eyeing that i do on this blog, i aint about to bother anyone or be confrontational about something i just find strange (though i guess “strange” or “weird” are loaded words to use, i really do just mean i dont understand it). Anyways! I still believe people should do whatever the fuck they want, so long as they’re having fun and not harassing others. I feel like a hypocrite to state that i find asserting things onto the canonical listener characters is strange, but i really dont care any more than i care about other perspectives/behaviors i am incapable of empathizing with/completely comprehending.
I think the idea of getting mad that someones self insert or OC is a specific gender is just….. childish??? Immature???? Some people are going to be men, or women, and getting upset that people make their self inserts the same gender as themselves is WILD!!!! Equally as wild to get mad that someone didn’t make their entire OC cast one gender…..
Its also equally as childish and self-centered to assert that the listener characters are canonically anything other than nonbinary people who use they/them, because all of Erik’s content is M4A and uses gender neutral pronouns for ALL listeners. Like going in someones inbox and screaming “THE LISTENERS ARE CANONICALLY ALL FEEEEEMALE!!!” (actual real example btw 💀) Is, aside from being idiotic and quite frankly embarrassing, just straight up wrong.
Let people treat their listeners how they wish to treat them, not everyone is going to imagine them the same way. Myself for example, all the listener characters are me. Its me with slightly different hairstyles, powers, and expressing different aspects of my personality. Im the spiderman meme every time theres a video with more than one listener present.
As for the death of characters thing, thats so wild lol. I’m gonna keep imagining a world in which the Redactedverse holds actual consequences and people die in it. Permanently. I will hold steady in my opinion that Milo and Lasko should have gotten slaughtered during Inversion and no one could even pry it from my cold dead hands.
Do what you want, use websites functions to your advantage to curate your experiences, and have fun.
And for the love of god dont harrass other people over this shit. How the fuck are some of these adults acting like 16 year olds 😭 dont they have bigger things to worry about??? I know for a fact i do

it's 3am and i have some thoughts on the kpop brat community-
shall i list a few?
haechan (obv🤨): this man. playful type of brat. not to get a rise out of you persay, just likes the fun of not doing what you say so you can put him back in his place.
yeonjun: yeonjun is a brat for prideful reasons. he's aware that you have the upper hand but he still likes to put up a fight. why submit easily? it's okay, you can make him regret it and apologize :)
changkyun: a cute brat in my opinion. is more into it for foreplay reasons i think, he's pretty obedient once you have him under you.
"changkyun we talked about this, didn't i say to not try and touch me while we were out?"
"did you? :D"
eric: eric is a brat because it took him a bit to submit for you in the first place. don't get me wrong he loves it, but he still thinks he can take over at times. however when you pin him down by his wrists and make him say who he belongs to, he'll fold.
LEE MINHO. LORD-: this boy 🤨. is a brat for the fun of it and loves to get a rise out of you. not only will he doubt you being in charge, he'll call you every title you like in public and when you get home feign innocence.
"what was i supposed to not say that? i'm sorry, does this mean you'll have to punish me? if you even can :)"
jaemin: hes the type to disrespect you on purpose just so you can wreck him harder then mock him. also he wants you to make him respond. saying it out loud makes it so much more humiliating and he loves it.
"aw baby i thought you were so tough,,, trying to defy me? you're nothing but a pathetic whore who just wants rough treatment."
seonghwa: now this may be an unpopular opinion- but let's be honest, he's a good boy majority of the time. but something about making you upset and treating him like a ragdoll just really sits right with him. defying you would purely be for your reaction.

A Deals A Deal (Part 2)
Note: People really liked the Demon!Scar idea I had, and while I don’t have a play by play of chapters or a whole plot (other than Slow Burn), I can write scenes as I go. To read Part 1, look for the reblog I did for @bluiex to read the AroAce Anon’s version and the one I did. :)
As a side note, this will get into religious themes, into areas that might piss off some very hard core Christians out there. For my own sake I’m saying this now, this is all made up stuff using source material. Most might be accurate, most might be my interpretation, and some of it is just bullshit I made up. 
I’ll also be making references to Hells Belles alot, so yeah...
Now that that’s out of the way, please enjoy.
-
The cats were happy now, as Scar was petting Pearl with a silly grin, Grian was making something for himself, and Scar said he doesn’t really eat people food. He was trying not to think about what that could mean. “So the terms are as I make them right? And depending on what I ask depends on the price?” Grian asked Scar as he sat down in the arm chair. 
��Yup!” Scar said cheerfully to him, “Everything has a price, and each price gets higher. Persay you want to be a million air, the cost might be your humanity or a part of your soul.” he explained while giggling when the cat pawed his face for attention. “Oh Jellie would be so jealous.”
Grian took in that info, frowning slightly as he thought about it. “you can sell ‘parts’ of your soul?” he echoed, finding that very odd, he would have thought a soul as a whole thing.
“Basically,” Scar’s tail hugged his waist now bringing up his feet to sit cross legged on the very worn couch. “By selling a part of yourself, it makes reincarnation a little harder in the afterlife. Demons don’t have much use for anything but souls, save for the Princes who can use anything. Most of us deal in souls and soul halves. The more souls a demon has, the more power they have.” 
The frown stayed on Grian’s face, “So is it anything like what the bible says?” he asked a bit worried now.
Shrugging at him, “Not entirely, I mean there are punishment levels for truly even souls that come there. But reincarnation wouldn’t even be a thing is people were always tortured. New Souls, like yourself, are very very rare to come around.” Scar grinned at him, showing off fangs. 
“New souls?” Grian instinctively placed a hand on his chest.
The demon gave a cheerful nod, the smile staying on his face. “Most souls are recycles, most of the gods don’t make new souls these days, not with how many people there already are in the world.” he explained messing with Pearl’s paws, “New Souls are rare because of this, it means you’ve not been reincarnated once, and this if your first chance at life. The more a soul reincarnates, the less shiny it gets.
“As for the idea that you’ll be tortured just for make a deal? What good would that benefit me, or you? If you’ve been a mostly good person, most it does is you have a chance to become a demon, or get the pretty basic afterlife most Satanist get.” the grin showed again, “but not many stay good people once they make a deal, power gets to you humans head. Free will and all that.”
Silence rang after that as Grian sat back with a heavy huff, his mind was reeling a bit from all of this. “So, if all of this is pretty much common knowledge, why do people still get it wrong or have their own versions.”
Scar tilted his head, “Why do you humans do any type of lies or control? Power.” he said simply. “What started as a common theme branched from different experiences happening. The Gods and Goddesses themselves, and the God of many mono religions, approach everyone differently. From this, religions were made, and some changed to just better keep society going, for better or worse. I mean, you live in a capitalistic society, surely you know by now control is how anything works.”
Running clawed fingers through Peral’s fur, Scar smiled, “Ultimately what you believe in just determines your afterlife of choice, the universal rule is Don’t Be A Dick... which you people have a hard time doing.” he looked thoughtful, “Cubby put it best when he said: ‘The bar is in the crust of the earth, and some people like making digging their hobby’.” he let out another snicker.
That was again alot to unpack as Grian was in thought now, eating his cup of ramen while Scar seemed preoccupied on Pearl and now Maui. This did change alot of his world view, given Scar was bound to tell him the truth, it was enough to shake his foundation again. Great he already had enough of that when he left his parents house. But... here he was, with a literal demon in his apartment petting his cats, and telling him the world was mostly built on lies.
Well... that part he already knew from watching enough TV shows and reading internet stuff. 
“So, to make a deal.” Scar said snapping Grian out of his head, “Given you’re a new soul, if you offer that I’d give you anything you want.” a smirk, “And i do mean anything, being I run punishments on level 8 means I’ve got alot of influence in Hell.”
Grian swallowed hard at that as he could feel Scar eyeing him with interest, the idea that other was staring at his soul was unnerving. “I’ll be honest Scar, I didn’t think this would work, much less what I’d have asked for! I thought Demons were fake, and this was to prove to myself it was.” he groaned a bit setting his cup of ramen down.
. . .
“Then let’s take this a day at a time then?” Scar suggested in his cheerful tone, “Given I’m bound to you now, you can call me whenever you think you need something, we negotiate price, and go from there.” a clap of the hands he grinned, “Plus it’s been years since I’ve been in the human world, I’ve always wanted to see what you guys have been up to!”
Grian turned to Scar at that mouth gapped, “What?” he balked a bit as Scar had a cheeky grin on his face.
“First thing though, a better place for the two of us, i heard there are alot of Victorian houses for fresh college grads like yourself.” Scar said standing up as the cats jumped off him. “real cheap room and housing, haunted and all that, and I like to mess with spirits anyway.” he waved his hand off. “Rent is better there than here, trust me.”
The demon walked past him chattering away as Grian bewildered, “Wait you’re moving in with me!?” he asked getting up to follow Scar out of the room. Only to pause and quickly swipe the ramen cup before Maui could inspect it for food, and rushing back to Scar. “But why bother moving in when I could just summon you again?” he asked.
“Like I said, I’ve missed being on the mortal plane. We don’t get to leave Hell often, why do you think it’s so hard to get us to leave a house?” Scar scoffed as if that was just the most logical thing ever. Grian could only stare at him as Scar went back to the room where Grian’s phone was still on the bed. 
Scar was already typing as Grian made a shocked sound, “What how did you get into my phone?” he asked but Scar didn’t answer. 
“Look you want out of this hole of a house right?” Scar asked, as Grian went to speak, “Yes or No, Grian, it’s a simple question.” he teased, blinking a few times Grian nodded. “So, this is a free on the house thing, to get us both out of this place, and into a place with history, room, and in a better part of town.” Scar beamed going back to searching.
“really don’t know why you moved to America of all places.” Scar said casually, “but we’ll make it work, exploiting a system is what I do best. And eventually we’ll find what you want to trade that pretty soul of yours for.”
Grian placed a hand on his chest again as if trying to hide his ‘soul’ from Scar’s view. That made a pit of unease settle in his stomach, Scar didn’t seem to notice or care as he kept looking. “Well, you don’t exactly look hum-” he was cut off as in a blink of the eye, Scar was in a hoodie, jeans, with no horns, blueish transparent wings, or even a tail... he looked human. “Um...” Grian muttered
All he got in response was a playful smirk, and Grian decided to not say anything. At least he was getting out of this place, and he didn’t have to trade anything for it. He left to go throw away the empty cup and just... process all of this. 
-
The old Victorian house was... well old. It had faded red and brown paint, with green moss growing with English ivy on the stone foundation and walls. Ominous was the right word for it. 
Scar was beaming, “The owner of it is more than happy to rent us two rooms, apparently the other tenants staying said something about a demon in the house. Cubby likes to mess with people.” he said casually leading the way in, “Comes fully furnished already, which means no more cough that smells like cat litter. And this place is pet friendly, I think the owner is just desperate to not have to sell to the bank.” he joked.
As if one demon wasn’t already enough, Maui protested in his carrier as he hated being in it. Scar was carrying Pearl’s carrier, and Grian could only sigh as they started to unpack what he had to bring inside. The owner, a man named Scott had told him he had to at least live here for 10 years, and rent was super cheap. He didn’t seem to care so long as he up kept the house and cleaned up after himself. Seemingly too tired really given the last people here left in the middle of the night after...  ‘Cubby’ had threw knives after the husband, kept making the daughter draw creepy pictures (which were still on tapped to the wall), and gave the wife nightmares and scratch marks. Also something about blood running out of the walls, smell of death, one college student getting possessed and taking out lights around the area, another getting pushed and locked in the basement when home alone, and something about a pentagram in the attic and occult book that Scott just left in the house!
Well at least it was cheap.
Scar had possibly already wandered off to catch up with his old friend, leaving Grian to unpack in his room and set up the litter boxes. Letting the cats explore around the house. No doubt he’d be meeting ‘Cubby’ some time soon and frankly he was trying not to think about that.
Sighing heavily, Grian petted Pearl when she passed by, so his roommate was now two demons, in a very haunted old mansion, a landlord that was sketchy as fuck, and armed with new knowledge that most religions were bullcrap.
Oh and said Demon was trying to get him to pawn off his ‘New Soul’ and seemed very eager to try anything. given on the drive here Scar kept making offer after offer to Grian to make a deal with him. Ranging from money, love, happiness, 3 inches below the belt... Who would sell their soul for only 3 inches! go for at least 5.
Shaking his head, Grian put it out of his mind, as Mumbo said he’d be heading over later to check out the new place. He really hoped Scar and this ‘Cubby’ played nice.
-------
That’s about all I have for now guys, between here and when Scar starts to explore more will have a gap. Also more Hermits will join as Grian’s ‘roommates’ and will be the subject of Cub’s ‘Pranks’. If you can call pushing, clawing, biting, and making blood rain down ‘pranks’. 
Most won’t stick around long, and a few might be demons themselves. Grian is gonna become the center of attention for his soul. And Scar is gonna be a jealous Demon.

I will never understand LGBTQ Hamas supporters. Like seriously, Hamas want us dead too. They killed one of their own commanders because they found out he was gay (Mahmoud Ishtiwi, use Google or DuckDuckGo or any other search engine if you don't believe me). Their punishment for LGBTQ people on their soil is execution. Why are you cheering on people who hate us? Does your Judenhass really overwhelm your survival instinct? Stanning Hamas & the Houthis won't make them hate you less for being queer, just ask Mahmoud Ishtiwi. Oh wait, you can't because he's dead for being gay.
Meanwhile, Israel is one of a very small number of countries in MENA where homosexuality is legal. Discrimination against LGBTQ people in terms of employment, education, health care, housing or commerce is illegal. It's one of 5 MENA countries with any right to change your legal gender, the only nation in MENA that doesn't require you to have had gender confirmation surgery to legally change gender & one of only 2 that provide transition surgery as part of public healthcare (Iran's the other one, I can acknowledge their stopped clock moment). The only downside is that you can't perform gay marriage on Israeli soil, but that’s the case for all non-religious marriages & all gay marriages performed overseas are legally recognised as valid by Israel, including those where both members of the wedded couple are solely Israeli citizens, so this is arguably more discrimination against the poor in general than queer people persay. 🇮🇱 is still by far the best place to be LGBTQ in MENA.
Please direct me to the idiot who says you can't be both trans & pro-Israel (I'm iffy on if it's best practice to call myself a Zionist when I'm not Jewish myself, so I stick with pro-Israel, but I support the basic tenants of Zionism: Jewish people have the right to self-determination in their ancestral homeland & the right to defend that expression of self-determination from those who wage war on it). See if this fool is willing to defend their position arguing with a pro-Israel transwoman who can bring facts to the argument.
There is literally a trans center in Tel Aviv. It’s a well-funded community center just for trans people. (This is in addition to the LGBTQ+ centers.) If you transition while serving in the IDF your medical bills are all paid for (and yes you’re still able to serve in the military if you are trans.) It is much easier to transition in Israel than in most places in the world. It is not expensive (your surgeries are free on the Israeli health service and HRT is affordable) and it is not looked down upon by any but the most bigoted. Changing your name and gender markers on official documents is not difficult. The first trans person to win Eurovision was ISRAELI contestant Dana International in 1998. Trans people are on television in Israel everyday. To say you “cannot be trans” if you are “a zio” is nonsense. There are more trans people in Israel living their best lives than almost anywhere in the world. Israel is a far better place to be trans than the USA, for example. There is not the demonization of trans individuals in Israel.
I knew that Israel had a pretty good record on queer rights overall, but this is great info 👍

hey Ozzy [trips and falls down a flight of stairs]
nsfw sage hcs? brain rot is reaching towards the deep parts of my brain that don't reach the sunlight
be as detailed and explicit as u want 👉👈
anyways, I'm gonna crawl into your floorboards
thanks ozzy!
Tumblr media
*under my floorboards are just a bunch of tubes like hamster city so have fun. You might run into some ferrets tho*
GN!Reader, am I calling myself out with some of these? yes. but you people will never know which ones, NSFW ofc, All LL Characters Are Switches In My Mind, Hopefully this is long enough (that's what he said hahaha)
Sage Lesath
Alright here's some stuff I think he's into and some explanations as to why:
Right out the gate,, marking. Biting and bruising and that sorta thing, and it goes both ways. He likes being able to see that you're his and he's yours. It makes him feel safe and reassured that you aren't gonna leave him and also it's just kinky.
Also,, um,, cumming on/in you, or vice versa. For the same marking reasons.
In that same vein,,, piss. Cats use piss to scent mark things.
Knife/blood play is canon so,, like,,, yeah.
Begging. He wants to hear you beg. He really wants you to make him beg. Please.
He canonically liked it when you threatened him a little so,, yeah be mean to him,,, but I also think he'd like a soft Dom too. Kiss his forehead and call him a good boy and he melts
Risky/public. He's gonna fuck you in an alleyway at some point.
Also likes teasing you under the table when you guys are out places but isn't really trying to get you caught so don't worry.
Primal play. He wants to drive you to that point of pleasure where your brain shuts off and you're just going on instincts. I guess you could also say overstimulation/aheago for the same reasons
Also just,, being messy in general? Leaving your clothes all over the place and drooling/spitting and being covered in sweat and etc etc.
I think Lungs?? said this once but,, seeing your makeup run from tears/sweat,,, he sure do be into that
Breeding. Is that his cat instincts or does he just like the idea of you being full of him and tied to him forever? That Is Not For Me To Know.
S,,size difference,,,, if you're bigger than him then he is a smol kitty cat and if he's bigger than you then he is a fearsome feline >:3 either way he's happy
Being,, like,,, in water? Or swimming? I'm not sure if that's a thing persay but he being able to float.
Reg you mentioned that Sage seems like the kinda dude who would cum while giving head,, and like,,, yeah. Yeah he would. Yeah he do.
Pull 👏 he 👏 hair 👏 and 👏 he 👏 tail 👏
For some HCs
Probably the most 50/50 switch.
Kitty cat cums a lot. And when he does cum he usually wraps his tail around you (or tries to, depending on the position y'all are in). He likes knowing you're close.
H,,,,,he,,,,,,,heats,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, I'll willingly call myself out for this one. Sorry not sorry.
Sage,,, giving head,,,, you scratch behind his ears,,,,, purring,,,,,, instant vibrator. Also, Egg Anon, you asked about if his dick would vibrate when he purrs,,,,,,,, I'm gonna say yes. Which means cock-warming would be insane because he'd just start purring and you'd fucking die.
In a modern!AU (or if y'all just have access to sex toys) I feel like he'd definitely have you wear a vibrator under your clothes and he'd just mess around randomly with the remote. Keep it on a low level most of the time but when you guys are walking/not around people you know he'll suddenly crank it to max. He is nice enough to let you take breaks tho. And if you wanna swap roles then he's more than happy to go along with it.
Sub!Sage is such a brat. He likes being punished a little bit (spanking, extended edging, etc.) but he's not overly fond of,, like,,, being called worthless or whatever. Like if you call him your slut or something then he (really) likes it but also, really, he needs a lot of love and a lot of reassurance that he's yours.
Mating press??? Thigh fucking???? Yeah definitely. He probably has some weird positions to try out with you, depending on what you can pull off.
I have no idea who said it but there's a post somewhere that mentions that if you sit on Sage's lap he is instantly horny,, and like,,, yeah
By the same token if he's being a horny bastard and you casually cup his cheeks and smooch the tip of his nose and call him a cute kitty then he will melt in your arms and demand pets.
In as much as he enjoys kinky sex (and ohohoho he does enjoy it) he also really likes soft sex!! I don't, think,, that,,, he's ever really had soft/affectionate sex before? Like the first time you try it he kinda instinctually starts getting rougher but you scratch his ears and kiss his forehead and tell him to slow down,, it's okay,,, you're not going anywhere,,,,, and suddenly he's shy and fumbling a little because he just isn't prepared for it. He ends up liking it a lot more than he can verbalize.
Also I think that,, like,,, the first few times you guys have soft/affectionate sex it's kind of emotionally draining? He has to be way more vulnerable than usual and he's just exhausted afterwards. And at first he's a little confused because He's Done Way Rougher And Been Okay So Why Can He Barely Keep His Eyes Open Now?
Baby it's because this is the first time you've felt truly safe!! He lays his head on your chest and curls up on top of you and you stroke his hair and he quickly falls asleep with a little smile on his face.
Just,, the dumbest possible safe words. He purposefully picks ones that'll make you both laugh because it makes it a little easier to get out of the scene that way.
Roleplay! Some of it is kinkier (like pretending you guys are rival mercs trying to decide who gets the bounty and you have to try and 'overpower' each other) but some of it is sweeter (like pretending he's a cursed prince locked away in a tower and you're the dashing rogue who defies the crown to rescue him and sweep him off his feet - that one makes him particularly flustered but it also puts a warm fluttering in his chest) too.
I think he really will try just about anything once. As long as you guys talk extensively beforehand about hard/soft limits, safe words, etc - aka as long as he can assure your safety - then he's happy to try it.
On a sadder note I think that he probably has spent years allowing people to push/break his boundaries because it was the only way he could get anyone to stay,, so initially he really is willing to do anything you want. You have to gently talk through it with him, remind him that he's allowed to say no to things he doesn't like, promise him you really won't mind at all, explain that you love him just as much as he loves you so of course you want to protect him. It's a conversation he never thought he'd have to - get to? be worthy enough to? - have. There are tears to be sure but I think it's overall a positive experience and one he desperately needed to have.
Lucan de Bhaldraithe
Stuff I think he's into and why:
Headpats! And praise! He is a puppy :) Also I think that while he does have his strong convictions and he does believe the actions he takes are ultimately morally necessary in the grand scheme of things,,, idk sometimes a bitch just needs to be told he's a good boy, y'know?
L,,le,,,,leash. Bondage in general but especially a leash. He loses control of himself when he's the Red Wraith so knowing you can tame him does a lot to calm him down.
Playful chasing? He likes getting to grab you from behind and spin you around a little bit. Makes him feel stronk and it usually makes you laugh. And he really likes your laugh!
Biting. Monch. Please leave marks on him :) he'll leave some on you too so it's fair :)
Cuddle fucking!! Whether it's you holding him or him holding you, you guys are together and being cute and in love and that makes him happy :) a spot of wholesomeness in a world of corruption and all that.
I'm not entirely sure this counts as a kink but like,, fucking in non-standard places? Like not necessarily in public (though I don't think he'd mind that) but just in random places. Stairwells, bathrooms, the roof/balcony, so on and so on. His ultimate goal is to fuck in basically every surface of the house. Lofty ambitions.
Realistically,, al,,,,also pissing,,,,, for the same scent marking reasons as Sage. Sorry. I don't make the rules. I just write whatever I think is funny.
Doggy style! Also allows for prime hug position mwahaha. If he's fucking you then he will just wrap his arms around your waist and randomly go limp to smush you into the bed because he thinks it's funny.
Dress up/Cosplay! I think if you wear thigh highs his brain goes directly out the window. If you're able to show him old cosplay pics of you then,, sorry those just become a porno magazine to him.
,,,,, look I gotta say it,,,,, p,,,,, panties. I think part of it is a smell thing and part of it is a visual thing but I'm all saying is if you wrap your underwear around his cock and jerk him off like that he will enjoy it.
Facesitting? Yeah. Yeah. Definitely.
I guess you could also put this under 'unusual places' but something about fresh air and birdsong makes him wanna fuck in the forest. Idk. It's an animal thing.
For some HCs:
60% sub 40% dom
He likes being really soft :) and sweet :) and gentle :) and then out of nowhere suddenly demolishing you :) and then giving you really sweet and loving and gentle aftercare :) he's gotta keep you in your toes y'know. Expect the unexpected and all that.
A lot of panting and a lot of drooling. Also, like,, growling. I just think he's very vocal in general and he also likes it when you're vocal. That probably leads to you getting caught several times but, really, it's Elowen's own fault for coming home two hours before she said she would.
Sometimes he's like,, really sleepy because he's been running around all day (or all night depending on how legal the activities were),,, and he'll just fall asleep inside you. Takes him a couple minutes to wake back up. He says he'll make it up to you ;) but then he falls asleep again so you'll just have to pick it back up after his nap.
Kn,,, knot????? Heat, sure, but knot?????????
Also yeah he goes fucking rabid during his heat. And if something happens that triggers his corruption? Rip your entire body you will not be able to move for three days. He'd be good at taking care of you tho
You try to punish him for something and he whimpers and gives you Puppy Eyes and,,, like,,,, how can you possibly be mean to him??? You can't. And he knows it. Bastard.
His tail wags soooo much the entire time. Does not matter who's doing what. He's happy to be with you and he is gonna show it damnit.
If he isn't careful he really could fuck you through the bed. Like. He will crack the fucking mattress frame if he gets too excited. And he'll be fucking proud of it too.
Balsam
Stuff I think he's into and why:
I do think he's the most naturally gentleman-ly of the trio but I also think he will not hesitate to say the most depraved and degrading shit if it'll get you both off. He won't mean any of it, and he always makes sure to give you lots of praise and love afterwards. But just be aware he is perfectly capable of being disgusting.
He can also be very sweet and praising though!! It all just depends on the mood you guys are in. He's pretty good at reading your mood but he's also very good at communicating!! If he isn't sure about something he will just fucking ask!! How sexy and mature of him.
Y'know how there was this thing going around in TikTok where people were like 'I made fun of piss fetishes so much I developed one'? Yeah. He spent years making fun of Sage and Lucan only to wind up developing one himself. Cruel irony. He's learned to accept it but he isn't exactly proud of it either.
M,,mutual masturbation? Is that what that's called? Masturbating while watching each other is what I'm trying to get at but I think mutual masturbation is basically giving each other handies. Which he's also into so count this one as a two-fer.
Trying to stay quiet. Mostly when you're trying to be silent and then he makes you moan really loudly.
Idk. He might gag you at some point. It's in the cards. Specifically a ring gag cause. Y'know. I don't have to spell it out. *Cough*sloppybjpotential*cough*
I guess I could just say BDSM in general but I don't think he's particularly sadistic or anything! Just likes the dirty/taboo aspect. I mean he definitely can and will get rough but he's just Like That. So. Y'know.
Um. I dunno. Maybe he likes being called 'sir' sometimes. Y'know. It happens. You call him that in public as a joke and he casually just picks you up and takes you to the nearest available (semi/mostly-private) space because You Fucking Asked For It.
For some HCs:
70% dom 30% sub
Okay yes I know that bulls aren't attracted to the color red, it's the waving of the flag that does it, but y'know what else I know? I know that if you wear red underwear that Balsam will be attracted to it. Partially because he thinks you're a massive fucking dork and partially because, hey, red is a nice color.
I also know that this man will wait until he is balls-deep inside of you, when you're squirming around begging him to fuck you already, to look you in the eye and make a fucking pun. A bad pun. Because he thinks the way your eyes go from being hazy with arousal to burning with annoyance is hilarious. And yes he is willing to sacrifice an orgasm just to prove that.
If he gets home really late (probably was out drinking with the boys) and he's horny and he sees you're asleep then he'll just go to the bathroom,,, which is fine and all except it's now 5 in the morning and he's asleep on the toilet and he won't wake up and you really need to pee
If you're sore/tired afterwards then he runs around taking care of you as best he can. Sometimes you gotta remind him to sit down and take a break himself because charging headfirst into things is Not Always The Answer. Best way to do it is just to crawl on top of him so he has no choice but to nap.
I,, cannot possibly tell you why I think this because it popped into my head randomly like a thunderbolt thrown by Zeus,,, humming. I honestly am not sure how to further explain. I think he hums. Maybe even sings a little. Like if he's giving head and he does it then it kinda makes sense because of the vibrations but he just does it whenever. He might make a game out of having you try to sing along but you're both panting/grunting/moaning/whatever to see who can hold it together the most.
If you have a certain part of your body that you're insecure about he gives it a lot of kisses/nips. If you're having a particularly bad episode then he'll just fully stop fooling around and hold you and encourage you to vent about it. He knows he can't magically make things better, but at least he can listen and be there for you.
Honestly just,, in general,,, he is the most likely of the three to notice when something is off and stop to ask you about it. Or if he's feeling off to stop and talk to you about it. His first and foremost priority is how you feel, and he knows you love him enough to not be upset if he has to stop things for his own sake. It happens sometimes. No shame in it. I'm not sure whether to categorize it as him being the most mature or him just being the most self-confident? Like I think Lucan and Sage (especially Sage) have worse self-esteems and that does kinda cause them to hide their own feelings, which can make it a little difficult for them to notice yours if it's more subtle. Balsam is pretty good at not doing that.
He pretends to fall asleep one time and smushes you but then he can't stop snickering and laughing because Haha He's So Funny and like,, he is inside you at that moment and he laughs hard so. Y'know. Ha Ha.
Ha.

I'm mildly curious about that Another dimension: Doomed/gradual doomerfication Au, is everyone stuck there, or just the people that canonically end up there at some point, and thus come out part doomer?
More of the second one! The initial idea from this AU sprang from a piece of folklore I initially came up with for the fanfic the mods are writing (Star Chunks), buuuuuut we ended up scrapping the entire thing because it didn't fit organically into the story. The little scene plus some more details about the au are under the cut so the post doesn't get too long
------------
“You know, they’re theorized to be the souls of the ancients, trapped wandering Another Dimension for eternity. They can’t remember what they looked like after all this time, so their anger and desperation takes the place of their memories and turns them into… these guys. They say that they think the energy spheres will turn them back.” 
“WHAT, REALLY??” Marx climbs up onto the outcropping to get a better look. “For real?? They’re what’s left of those guys? The ones who made Nova?”
Magolor sighs, wistfully. The sphere doomers puff up, looking annoyed at Marx’s presence. “Not really. That’d be silly, I think. Nobody knows for certain. It’s just what people say, that it was their punishment for asking too much of technology.”
“Oh.” Marx hops back down to where Magolor’s hiding, sitting down. “That’s… cool. I guess. I sure hope we don’t become like that.”
Magolor doesn’t respond. 
------------
So basically the idea is that people gradually turn into sphere doomers if they're in AD too long. All the current sphere doomers are mostly Ancients / people from FL who were lost testing portals / traveling between dimensions / etc. There's no real "plot" persay other than that Galacta and Grand Doomer are now the same being. People who were lost in AD for a while but not so long that they lost their minds came out with only some feathers / small wings / tails / a hankering for crunching and munching on ancient artifacts (basically just magolor and susie iirc)
feel free to use this au in whatever way you want, there's not much to it atm :)

Oh I would love to learn about what kinds of creatures r in ur world!
So there's quite a few XD I'll try to keep the descriptions short enough so this isn't too long (tho of course if yall ever want to know more just let me know). So basically these are the main ones MC will interact with in the game, some based on myths, a lot I added myself as i think they're cool. Werefolk:
The one that's most prevalent in the current demo sounds like a good place to start. Lycanthropy, and its counterparts), can be passed down by werewolf saliva getting into someone's bloodstream. There isn't a "cure" for lycanthropy, as the search for that was ended when people stopped looking at werefolk as feral beasts and realized they still have their consciousness, it's just that their adrenaline has been cranked to the max and it can be terrifying to suddenly have your senses be 10 times better than they ever were. Nowadays there are plenty of over the counter meds to help with "full moon hangovers" and even some that dull your senses down to "human" level. On full moons when the change is unavoidable, there are plenty of forest/parks that allow werefolk to let loose without having to worry about accidentally damaging buildings or hurting people. Were-attacks are rare, but still occasionally happen, depending on if the were knew they'd been turned or not punishment can be as little as a fined ticket, or if the attack was planned/done with intent to harm or kill, it can lead to said were getting life in prison.
Animal Headed people: (minotaurs, chimeras, etc)
There are many versions, hence the classification of general animal headed individual. These folks can also have claws, animal lower legs, tails etc. It can be difficult for these folk to speak human languages, many use sign language instead or speaking aids on their phones, or if they've got the money for it they can commission a mage to make a piece of jewelry that "speaks" for them. (it connects to a magic symbol on their neck and translates their vocalizations into a specified human language). Some do prefer to use glamor to appear more human, but glamor can be quite expensive. Animal headed individuals have heightened senses based on what animal head they have, so some might have amazing hearing but terrible vision, or thermal vision but not the best hearing, etc.
Vampires:
Vampires are considered undead as the actual vampire transformation stops the human heart before completely altering their physiology. It's not that they're dead persay, but they no longer need a heart, or lungs really. They do need to drink blood, but nothing even close to the myth of drinking humans dry. Modern vampires will pay hospitals or consenting blood donors for a pint of blood and it will last the vampire a solid month or two. Vampires don't burst into flame if they touch the sunlight, but they are sensitive to it. They are nocturnal and as such harsh bright lights will give them quite the nasty headache. As for other abilities (flying/hypnosis/transforming into bats or other creatures) it depends on the individual. If someone who had lycanthropy was then turned by a vampire they would be a vampire with the ability to transform into beastly creatures. If a mage were turned into a vampire they would have more of the persuasion/hypnosis abilities. If a vampire does bite you, you're not going to turn into one. Vampires have two sets of fangs, the one for biting open a wound for access to blood, and the second set which act like a snakes fangs, venom enters the bloodstream and that is what triggers the transformation. You would know if you were bitten by the second set of fangs from the intense and sudden burning as if acid was injected into you.
Ghosts:
Ghosts are undead, spectral beings of those who once lived. There's no rhyme or reason as to who becomes a ghost and who doesn't. Sometimes a ghost forms simply because they wanted to make sure someone they loved lives a long happy life, other times it is because of vengeance. Ghosts do not need to eat, and the sudden transformation from living to being a ghost can be quite the shock. If a ghost lets their emotions take over any rational thought they become a poltergeist, an embodiment of whatever emotion overtook them. Exorcisms are only used in the most extreme cases, as there are ways to calm poltergeists down and help them pass on. Ghosts get a sort of therapy to try and help them figure out why they're still hanging around, and to teach them coping skills to minimize the possibility of new poltergeists. They can possess bodies, but most will seek a willing host and only use the body for a few hours at the most. This is either to experience a food they enjoy, or a sensation they miss, etc.
Demons:
As humans can't accurately pronounce their true name, demons go as such. They aren't sins given form to torture humans, they are simply inhabitants of another plane, one more firey and hostile than the mortal plane. Demons don't normally travel long in the mortal plane as its colder than they're comfortable with among other reasons. Demons who do settle in the mortal plane are usually trying to start a new life for themselves, though then realize the mortal plane has its own hardships to deal with. Some use glamor to blend in, others feel no need to. They do have magic, though its different from what mages have and use.
Taurs: (centaurs, basically any animal body and then human torso and head)
Similarly to animal headed individuals taurs are those who have the lowerbody of an animal. the majority have hooved animal heritage, though there are some mammalian and reptilian taurs as well. They can use glamor but some find the sudden change from four legs to only two quite jarring. Those who do find it too jarring may use mobility aids to simulate four legs and keep themselves stable, others simply won't use glamor. Taurs can have animal-like ears and other features, it depends on the individual. Taurs who don't have hooves will tend to wear coverings on their paws to protect from glass/sharp debris of the city roads.
"Angels": (Winged folk)
Similar to Demons, humans could not pronounce their true names and thus call these individual angels. In reality the plane they call home is quite mountainous and cold, and therefore their kind evolved to have wings and thick warm fur. Their wings greatly depend on the individual, though most are avian, you can find angels with bat wings or even insect-like wings. Angels usually have a halo, in reality this halo is their horns, as angels horns conjoin upon maturity. Another interesting fact is that angels have a glow about them especially when in dimmer enviornments. If you befriend an angel, expect them to be quite touchy/cuddly, and to be given shiny gifts as angels find their own by looking for their glow.
Mages:
Mages are genealogical cousins to humans despite their very similar appearances. Mages have a different internal makeup, including a few more organs that convert food and water into energy that can be used for their magic. This energy is stored in their magical reserve (an organ nestled right next to the mages heart) and depending on how big this magical reserve is determines how weak or strong a mages abilities will be. Mages can usually be discerned by unnatural eye colors, or their magical birthmark (usually on their chest or back its color and shape is dependent on their magical reserve and how their magic develops. i.e if a mage is more drawn to plants it will be similar to plantlife, if a mage is drawn to the elements it make look like a lightning strike or a flame, etc.).

ㅤㅤthere's something off , but they're not sure what it is . catching onto others emotions had never been their strong suit . they barley understood their own muted emotions , let alone those of someone else around them ... but they could tell . the energy had changed and they're curious as too why .
ㅤㅤ❛❛ duel you ... huh ? ❜❜
ㅤㅤthey go silent , knees being pulled up to their chest to give them a moment to rest their head as they thought . if they did lose , leaving wasn't that big of a deal persay . sure they might in trouble for leaving their subordinates behind to take care of the rest ... and another harbinger might be sent in to be a diplomat .
ㅤㅤwhich might mean punishments on their end unless they came up with a good enough excuse for why they had to leave so early on .
ㅤㅤon the other hand ...
ㅤㅤif they won they can ask questions , and they are curious about a few things now that they're in a better state of mind .
Tumblr media
ㅤㅤ❛❛ alright , but i have one thing . , you have to give me time to talk to my subordinates . they are here for diplomatic reasons and technically its against my orders to leave them . so ill need to make up an excuse if i lose . ❜❜
ㅤㅤthey're not sure if he'll agree with that but they have to try . they really don't want to go through another punishment after liyue . with a sigh they push their self to stand - reaching up to tug the delusion out of their hair , brushing it back into place before throwing it off to the side .
ㅤㅤno need to risk using that .
ㅤㅤthen they turn to hold a hand out to him . ❛❛ deal ? ❜❜

While Kaeya may not be able to formally request the Fatui’s removal through the Ordo, he knows what he can certainly do instead, and that is make a bet with the Harbinger, whenever they manage to show up.
Still, as mentioned, Kaeya was very patient this time around. He weighed out his options, thought about what he could do in order to come out on top should Childe agree to his proposition. Not only that, but he also hopes to minimize damages to this ancient structure, as well as minimize any scolding he may receive from Lumine about this later.
At least this time it will be a mutual agreement rather than him backing the Harbinger into a corner.
Once Childe finally showed up, Kaeya felt them before he saw them.
He hadn’t passed them a glance as they sat down, simply rubbing one of his thumbs against the other’s thumb nail.
“Think what you want,” he responded, curt. “If you want to count this as your victory, then be my guest.” Kaeya took in a slow breath, the smell of the ocean mixing with the ozone permeating from Chile.
Tumblr media
“However,” he turned his head to look at them, his gaze sharp, “I have an actual proposition. Duel me. If you win, you can have, ask, indulge in whatever you want without Mondstadt’s safety being risked. If I win, you will depart from Mondstadt immediately.”

Iwaizumi NSFW Alphabet
just remebered that this is my blog and I control the iwa smut
A = Aftercare (what they’re like after sex)
He’s pretty good, he catches on pretty quick to what you like and will usally have some water and snacks on hand by the bed so he doesn’t have to get up to take care of you. Also, his after sex massages are godly 
B = Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)
Okay I know this sounds weird but he has this treasure trail on his stoumach that he is sooo cocky about. He knows it drives you wild when you see it (cus like it is very hot) and he loves to show it off as much as posible 
On his partner? hes all about the ass. Big small, round or flat he doesn’t care he loves the booty no matter what besides it’s not like you’re flatter than Oikawa anyways
C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically)
So conflicted when hes about to cum because on the one hand you look so good covered in his release and when you scoop up his semen with your fingers and lick it off your hand oh god nothing gets him harder. but on the other hand when he’s pounding into you it’s like your body is begging for him to cum inside so usally he makes you tell him where you want it. 
D = Dirty secret (pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)
He would gladly Cuck Oikawa or let Oikawa watch, sex and putting Shittykowa in his place are Iwa’s two favoret things so why not combine them
E = Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?)
He’s had a few partners but he’s not really a fuckboi, he likes having a steady partner so he can get to know their body rather than a string of one night stands. 
F = Favorite position (this goes without saying)
Doggy, like I said he’s all about your ass and he will spank you while fucking you, He’ll also push your head down onto the bed if you aren’t arching your back enough for his taste.
G = Goofy (are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.)
He’s more serious in the moment but that isn’t to say he isn’t capable of finding the humor in things. He loves to tease you and it often helpd break the tension if something awkward happed. IE you asked him to spike your ass like a volleyball and he laughed at you for an hour straight before doing just that.
H = Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)
it’s a little messy, don’t get me wrong it’s still all clean down there but like unless you ask him to shave he’s keeping the bush. 
I = Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect)
The romance really comes after everything is all said and done, like he won’t have any sweet words for you in the heat of the moment but that’s mostly becuase his mind goes totally blank when he fucks and he can’t formed words. 
J = Jack off (masturbation headcanon)
sometimes, mostly just to tease you. he’ll send you a video of him jerking off and moaning your name with some caption like “doesn’t this look a lot better than studying” to get you to come over and get him off for real. If you really can’t come fix his issue he’ll still send you a video of him cumming all over himself cus he’s nice like that
K = Kink (one or more of their kinks)
daddy kink plain and simple. he just loves heairng you cry out for daddy while he eats you like it’s is last meal but he also likes it when youre just like  “hey daddy can you grab that for me?” cus like yeah he is your daddy even out of the bedroom. Rip to you if you say that infront of the team 
public sex you are getting fingered in public 100% he doesn’t want to get caught persay. but he’s sure as hell not afraid to. as they say no risk no reward. you have also defently fucked in the boys changing room... and sucked him off in the club room, and gotten fingered in the volley ball storage closet. It’s a mericall no one from the team has caught you two yet. 
cock warming. He tries to work it into every sesion of aftercare its just nice to have his cock inside you even if it’s soft. makes him feel closer to you. watch out becuase the two of you will just be cuddling and watching a movie and boom his dick is out and hes looking at you like “so you gonna sit on that or what?”
roleplay? kind he gets really turned on when you roll up your uniform skirt and start “acting like a slutty little school girl” and he pretendeds he’s a teacher punishing you for braking dresscode. this is all in his head by the way, hes a little too ashamed to admit why he wants you to keep your clothes on while he fucks you or ask you to call him sensei.
L = Location (favorite places to do the do)
Like I said anywhere in public is a rush for him, but his absolute favorite is in the shower Aoba Johsai locker room shower. The water just hightens everything and your moans echo beautifully off the tiles. 
M = Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going)
when you complemt him.  “Wow iwa that was such a great spike you’re so strong!” “wow Iwa I never realised how mucular you are,”  “oh Iwa that was a great game you looked so cool out there!” are all sure fire ways to get your back blone out. 
N = No (something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)
ight hear me out! hes not into choking. Iwa just doesn’t trust himself enough to do it right in the heat of things and would never want to hurt you (yes he leaves bruises on your ass he spanks you so hard yes he doesn’t want to choke you until you black out) if you really want him to choke you he’ll do it, but like while you're riding a toy or something so he doesn’t get distracted. 
O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)
He perfers receving tbh. you just look so cute on your knees gagging on his cock (choking on his dick and choking on his hand are two difrent things stfu) Iwa lives to condicened to you while you’re trying to fix his XL meat in your mouth
“you’re such a pretty baby, if only there wasn’t a big fat cock making you cry but you’re so much of a whore to let go of my dick now that it’s in your mouth isn’t that right?” stuff like that. 
also his head game is godly. he holds your hands and kisses yo right on your sex then procieds to send you to anouther plain of existance with his mouth. he won’t let up until you're crying. you make such a mess every time, not that either of care.
P = Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.)
unless its a special occasion he’s rough and brutal. real head board braking motherfucker RIP to (y/n)’s hips they are fucking gone
Q = Quickie (their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)
He kinda has to be quick when you too are banging where someone could walk in any second. But he does perfer to take his time with you especially since he loves to make you cum over and over again. 
R = Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.)
Once he hits a grove he kinda likes to stick to what he knows. He might drag his feet a little but he’ll ussally try new things. 
S = Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?)
oh my god good luck he can go forever if you let him. the only time you can even hope of going less than three rounds is if he just had a big game and he’s tiered from it, even then games tend to rile him up more than anything. 
T = Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?)
He owns a pocket pussy, not that he uses it much. He’s fine with using toys on you as long as he’s the one in control. Doesn’t like it if he finds out you’ve been using a vibe somwhere without him. 
U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)
It depends. Normally he doesn’t tease much he’s pretty straightforword and would rather just get down and dirty about it. But if he feels like you’ve earned a good teasing? good luck. He’s patient and he knows your body so well he can have you in a mess in less than a minute and he’ll keep you there until you’re begging for him.
V = Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)
Not very loud, lots of grunts and deep huffs if he’s talking it’s broken phrases repeated over and over again “you feel so good, so good so good,” “who’s cock is making you cum? who’s cock? who’s cock?” like I said his mind shuts off when he’s fucking you. He does tend to shout when he cums though. 
W = Wild card (a random headcanon for the character)
He loves fingering you something about seeing his hands work on your body really gets him going. He like how deep his figners can go, how much they make you squirm. How the veins and the tendions on the back of his hand look while he slowly edges into three knucles deep. 
X = X-ray (let’s see what’s going on under those clothes)
do I even have to say it? big cock citty population Iwaizumi Hajime. It’s a little longer than average and a little gatherer than you’d maybe ecpect and it really streaches you out. The head is a flushed read color and it’s sesitive as hell. please suck on the tip of his cock while fodleing his heavy balls he will literally cum in seconds. 
Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?)
not very high. He’s always ready to go when you are but most of the time he’s just chill with hanging out. Unless he just won a game or you are wearing some of his clothes in wich case he is defently horny. 
Z = Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)
please, you rock his world but you’re not half the work out a five set volleyball game is. He is fine to go to like the gym or something after sex even if you are completely wreaked. but if you ask him to cuddle and happen to fall asleep, well a nap wouldn’t kill him right?

To me, when Hordak tells Entrapta that she’s not a failure, it’s not... how to say... it’s not that he’s wrong, persay. But in a way, it’s not quite the message that he, personally, needs to hear. Or that I think carries the best connotations.
To me, the equivalent would be... oh... Entrapta hearing Hordak call himself “defective” (or, in our terms, disabled) and answering him by telling him that he’s not. Which. Y’know. He is. And it wouldn’t be right, in this situation, to reply with “oh, it’s okay; you’re not really disabled.” 
What Entrapta does instead is acknowledge that both she and he have what are considered, in the mainstream, to be shortcomings. Flaws. And she points out that having flaws is not a reason to think of oneself as lesser, or to deprive oneself of happiness. She looks at herself, at what are considered to be her flaws, accepts them as a part of herself, and moves on. Living her life in a way that makes her happy. It doesn’t mean that she doesn’t suffer emotional distress in the process (the isolation she subjects herself to is a clear problem), but overall, she has a healthy view of how one should view and handle one’s perceived shortcomings.
And that’s the difference between how Hordak and Entrapta react to one another’s self-deprecation. Entrapta sees Hordak labeling himself a failure and tries to show him that being a supposed failure is not a reason to think poorly of oneself, or to condemn oneself to a life of unhappiness. She essentially tells him that “yes, you are disabled; that does not mean that you are a lesser person, or that you deserve this pain you’re going through.”
Whereas Hordak means well in his “you are not a failure” reassurance, but he still falls prey to this sense of “no, you are not flawed,” because he is still mired in the idea that flaws are a punishable offense. Eventually, as he grows and learns healthier behaviors, I expect that his reassurance will likewise shift to “your difficulties in understanding others do not give others the right to be cruel to you.” Which, I think, is a better message than “your difficulties in understanding others do not exist.”
Of course, ultimately, the idea both of them might grow into is that these “flaws” aren’t flaws at all, but are simply different ways of being. And thus need not be acknowledged as flaws in the first place. But I don’t think either of them are quite there yet (Entrapta is probably closer!) c:
I suppose. I think. I’m not sure if this comes across properly. Or if I’m assessing appropriately. I’m sure someone out there is better equipped to express this than I am, and I welcome their takes!
also do I have a post about this sort of thing already oh yes of course I do here it is
