Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
WARNINGS : NSFW, 18+ ONLY, MINORS DNI, f!reader, the links are literally p#rn, proceed at your own risk
CHARACTERS: miguel o'hara, peter b parker, hobie brown, the spot, spider noir, webslinger
Tumblr media
miguel
♡ miguel playing with your pussy as he sucks on your tits- getting you ready to take his cock, like the good girl you are<3
♡ this is for that one anon that sent me a hc about miguel getting pissed af if he caught you using one of your toys- ((I SAW IT AND IT WAS AMAZING I'VE WROTE SMTH BUT IT'S BEEN ON MY DRAFTS FOR LIKE A WEEK i can't seem to like it no matter how much i edit it but have this<333)) Miguel who then proceeds to snatch the toy from your grasp, muttering how you can't even come even with that. "S good right? Better than me?" "Noo, never- never better than you- oh please baby-" "That's fucking right."
bonus
♡ miguel punishing you when you arrive home after you talking shit all day- purposefully disagreeing on anything he says- even in mission briefs. makes sure to fuck you stupid just to remind you not to pull that shit again<3 "Acting like such a fucking bitch all day- fuck. Just needed my cock that bad, huh? Say it,"
peter
♡ peter whimpering pathetically once he starts cumming- moaning when you don't stop jerking his cock, and he's thrashing around, hips never stopping their little jumps as he whines prettily "I can't anymore- h please ffuckkkk, I ca-aan't," voice cracking as he sobs for you
♡ pussydrunk!peter that starts fucking you like an absolute madman, literally not able to stop thrusting inside of you even after he's cum two times already, his eyes are hazy, can barely focus on anything but he still grabs you by the hair to pull you against him almost harshly, panting hard as he somehow keeps fucking his cock back inside your drenched pussy
♡ peter laying flush against your back, humping you, thrusting his cock inside you till he's crying with you- whimpering and moaning from the way your pretty pussy feels around his cock
hobie
♡ hobie definitely wakes you up in the middle of the night if he can't sleep- pulls your panties to the side and makes you ride him, watching with a hand behind his head as you bounce your ass on his cock- thrusting his hips up to meet the rolls of your hips as he sighs, "Fuck- think I'll be wakin' you up every God damn night, baby.." "Yeah do it- fuckin' make me cum-"
♡ hobie losing his FUCKING mind when he sees you hold your folds open for him- giving him the perfect view of his cock entering your pussy again and again-
♡ no bccc. NO BECAUSEEEEEEE. tell me why he'd do this. he'd def dry hump you till you're both moaning against each other's mouths before he'd fuck you, refusing to remove his underwear from before- saying he likes looking at them all stained with your juices as you bounce up and down his cock<3
spider noir
♡ tw!!!somno noir loving seeing you wear tights/stockings, and absolutely loses his mind when he sees you laying like that on the couch- skirt bundled up on the floor, you'd probably taken it off right before laying down, and fuck- it's so fucked up that he's doing this but he can't help himself as he takes his cock out, slapping it against your ass two-three times before he starts jerking it, slowly, "So pretty for me honey.. 'nd you don't even know it," "Fuck- sorry- I'm sorry- I can't stop, can't fuckin' stop-"
♡ noir letting you control the pace for once as he leans back, supporting his weight with his palms on the mattress as you bounce your ass on his cock vigorously- and he's grunting, muttering praises, until he gets greedy and grabs you by the hips to thrust inside you with a new-found passion, "Did so well for me, such a good girl- unh-" "I'll fuck you so well, don't you worry-" "Won't be able to fuckin' walk tomorrow, honey."
♡ feel like noir would be used to more 'old fashioned' shit so when he met you, he'd become 10x times more freaky- that includes cumming on your face 🤭 he'd be reluctant at first- "Why waste it? You're tellin' me you don't want it in your pussy, hm?" but then he actually does it one time and becomes OBSESSED, "God fucking- I'm gonna cum-" "Where d'you want it sweetie," "Yeah? Ffuck yes- gonna paint your pretty face with my cum-"
the spot
♡ we've established that spot is a certified pussy eater, even without a mouth he'd find a fucking way- he'd just push your cunt into his face hole, and lap at your pussy greedily- moaning as he did so
♡ tw!! pegging jonathon? OH MY GODDDDDDDD and he's moaning so good for you too<3
♡ spot unable to stop pushing his hips back into your hand as you finger one of his holes- the feeling bringing tears into his eyes as he cries out for you<33
♡ him nearly YELLING when he comes inside you- moaning loudly as he pumps you full of his cum<3
webslinger
♡ tw!! breeding kink "Legs up f'me darlin'.... just like that," thrusts into you relentlessly, head thrown back as he literally cannot handle how good your pussy feels around his cock, and he grunts as he pulls out, jerking his cock, his hand shaking, "Can't cum inside you huh, pretty? Can't get you pregnant- not yet-"
♡ him finally slipping and coming inside you- moaning with his eyes rolled back as he feels your cunt sucking him in- "Ah shit- m sorry darlin' I couldn't hold m'self back.."
♡ him pounding you from the back and then suddenly deciding that he wants to watch you ride him instead- (save a horse, ride a cowboy), absolutely looooves watching your face contort in pleasure, your tits bouncing as you guide yourself up and down his cock<3

Kill for Her - Jason Todd x Reader - 1
🕸️Spiderverse Masterlist🕸️
🐼JJK Masterlist🐼
~ Fem terms used for reader.
~ Mild smut alluded to but nothing explicit.
~ Reader's appearance is not described.
~ Parts one, two, three, and four, as well as my other works, can be found here!
~ Also please lmk how i can improve the masterlist if you do end up checking out my other works!!! (:
~ Thank you so, so much for everyone who requested more crazy jason! ILLYYYY (p.s. thank you for being so patient with this, ik it took forever omg)
~ Wc: 1.4k
~ Tw: (Very) Unhealthy Relationship Dynamics and All that Comes with it, Mentions of Having Children, Jason Todd is Not a Good Person in this, Pet Names, Nausea, Angst, Blood and Violence, Variety in Themes, Cringe maybe (lmk)
Tumblr media
"Break up?" You think you can just "break up" with Jason Peter "I've never been in a real relationship bc I died as a teenager and I have serious deep running abandonment issues stemming from my more than troubled childhood" Todd?
Funny.
Real funny.
But yk what he doesn't think he really likes that joke and maybe you should actually never tell it again, okay? ((:
It doesn't matter what way you try to approach the subject. Kind, playing into his delusions about being a real couple? You're overthinking things, but that's fine, he loves you anyways.
Yelling, crying, screaming for him to get the fuck out of your home and go die? You're probably just being dramatic, but that's okay, you're sassy, he's sassy, match made in heaven!
The man is kookoo. He genuinely believes that you're destined to get married to each other and either have or adopt a ton of children and he's gonna be the best dad ever and you'll be a wonderful mom ever and blah blah blah blah.
And I've barely scratched the surface of all his crazy, it runs deep.
~ Drabble Starts Here. ~
He'd kill for you. Without a doubt.
He's always figured, somewhere in the back of his mind, that he might have to go back on his word to Bruce for your sake, that he might have to further stain his own soul and hands to keep yours clean, to protect you, to protect your relationship. It's not something he's too particularly worried about, to him, you might as well be the only living person on the planet anyways. Don't get him wrong, he loves his family, to the moon and back and more (don't tell them that), but if there were two people left on the planet, and one of them was you, and the other was him, he thinks the world might finally be fair. That life might finally be kind to him.
And with reasoning like that, whispered into your hair at night when he thinks you're asleep, how could you be so cruel as to break his heart? How could you when he begs, begs you not to see how evil he thinks he is at night when he's been up too late and his brain starts to tell him cruel things about himself? When he brings you a gift every time he sees you. Granted, they're stolen, and granted, he broke into your home. But they're exemplary of his devotion to you nonetheless. Or at least that's how you see it, that's how you see him.
It's true, Jason has lived a life more than deserving of pity, of kindness and support. That's part of why you feel nauseous right now, your hands, slightly clammy, nervously wring the hem of the shirt you're wearing. It's big on you, hanging down past your thighs. You can't remember if it's his or yours. Your tongue feels too big in your mouth, and your knee is bouncing so much you're sure the muscles in your calf are well defined by now.
The reason you feel so ill as you wait for him at 12:48 AM, your eyes flicking back and forth between the clock on your phone and your TV currently playing reruns, is because tonight is the end of it. The end of Jason breaking into your apartment with a spare key he had made without your knowledge, or your window when you switch your lock for the umpteenth time. The end of you waking up next to him in your bed when you know he wasn't there when you went to sleep. The end of his overly personal nicknames that allude to a relationship you've told him time and time again that you Do. Not. Have.
Tonight you're "breaking up with" Jason Todd. If you weren't on edge you might laugh at the thought. You and Jason have (at least in your adamant opinion) never agreed to date. He never asked you out, he just started, well, acting the way he acts; breaking into your home, stealing random articles of clothing that he has a particular interest in, acting like your boyfriend. But it's been months. You're tired.
"Jason!" You say, surprised at his sudden appearance. You guess you got too caught up in your thoughts. He smells like metal. You're worried about what he might've been getting up to, but that's not your main focus at the moment.
He hears your voice sing his name as he walks into your shared apartment, through the door this time. He knows how much you hate it when he comes in through the window. He's happy to see you, albeit a little surprised, you're usually asleep by this time. You must've stayed up for him, a smile rises to his lips at the thought. "Hiya doll, what're you doing up so late?" He's clearly exhausted, even though he's turning in relatively early, it now being 1:29, he's already had a long, long night. A long, painful, violent night.
All he wants right now is to lay beside you, to rest his head on your chest and hear your heartbeat. It's his second favorite sound in the world. The first being those gorgeous noises you make when he's got his head between your thighs and your fingers in his hair-
He's pulled from his thoughts at the sight of your lip tucked between your teeth, the worry on your face more than evident. His smile drops as he hangs up his signature leather jacket on the coat rack beside the door, and slowly makes his way over to you. "You okay, doll? What's wrong?" He asks you with such sincerity, like he really does care. And the worst part is you know he does.
"We . . . we need to talk, Jason." He can hear how nervous you are just by the way your voice quivers as you address him. It always makes his heart hurt when he hears that. You avert your gaze, unable to look at him at this moment. You breathe deeply, trying to calm your heart and quell the bile fighting to come out. You need to do this, and you need to do it now. "I . . ." You barely manage to warble out, clenching your jaw before bracing yourself. "I want to break up with you Jason." You say after taking a deep breath through your nose.
This is it, you did it. You can feel the saline tears rising to your waterline, but you aren't sad at all. You swallow the massive lump in your throat as you wait for his response, your hands furiously gripping your shirt, an unreadable expression on his face. He just . . . stares for a moment. He doesn't blink, he doesn't frown, he doesn't start sobbing, fall to his knees, beg you to change your mind.
He doesn't do anything. The longer his stillness goes on, the more and more your confidence deteriorates. Your shoulders drop from their tense state, your lip quivers, and your ears ring from how dead silent the room seems to be. "Jason . . ." He's barely blinking, his head slightly cocked, his hands limply dangling at his sides. "I said," You clear your throat, not favoring how weak you sound. "I said I want to break up with you. I don't want to date you anymore." You know he heard you, but you repeat yourself nonetheless.
The longer the two of you sit in silence, the harder it is to stomach it. Your hands shake as they grip your shirt, the fabric wrinkles in your tight grasp, your chest feels like all of your ribs have turned into snakes and started squeezing and constricting around your pounding heart. His eyes pierce your soul, the usually deep pits now shallow and glassy. Eventually, the second that he sees a single drop of water fall down your cheek he seems to snap out of it.
The life, the color returns to his face and eyes, as if he was just woken out of a deep trance at the mere sight of your tears. Then, perhaps most disturbingly, he laughs. A cold, icy chuckle that slides off his vocal cords and freezes the room. It sounds almost plastic, rehearsed, like he's practiced it in the mirror hundreds of times in preparation for moments like this. "That . . ." he wheezes between bouts of fake laughter. "That was really funny, babe, you almost had me there."
Jason runs a hand through his hair, disguising the act as if he's trying to gather himself when really, he's resisting the urge to grip on the strands of inky black until they rip from his scalp. He's still pretending to collect himself as he slips past your form, still standing almost perfectly still, into your room. You don't even remember the rest of the night. You don't remember what either of you said, what either of you did, all you remember is following him into the room, being coaxed into bed, and resting your swirling head on his chest as his arms wrapped so, so tightly around your shoulders.
Jason doesn't sleep well that night, even with you safely tucked into his arms. It was a joke, it was a joke, it was a joke. That's what he tells himself. Over and over in his head, bouncing off the walls of his skull; it was a joke, it was a joke, it was a joke. It must be, it has to be. His sweet Y/n, who knows what he's been through, who knows he's never had anything, and anything he has ever had was ripped from his hands, his Y/n would never be so cruel.
She'd never leave him. He couldn't let her. Not when he'd die for her, not when he'd kill for her.

My favourite colours are light pink and dark red.
Im currently rewatching Titans, Young Justice, and Arcane.

LGBTQ+ Disabled Characters Showdown Round 2, Wave 2, Poll 9
Tumblr media Tumblr media
A character being totally canon LGBTQ+ and disabled was not required to be in this competition. Please check qualifications and propaganda before asking why a character is included.
Check out the other polls in this wave and prior here.
Charlotte ‘Charlie’ Webber / Sun Spider-Marvel
Qualifications:
Charlie is canonically disabled and canonically queer, having EDS and being pansexual. She was originally a spider-sona created by a fan, Dawn Broder, who is agender and disabled.Unlike most disabled characters in superhero media, Charlie stays disabled even after gaining her powers! She uses crutches and a wheelchair, both of which are used alongside her webslinging. Her crutches have webslingers inside them, meaning she uses them to get around even while being sun-spider, and Across The Spider-verse shows her wheelchair being able to help her climb on walls and similar as well. Charlie's story also covers issues faced by disabled people! When an emergency happens at her prom, she's reminded that if she wasn't a spider-person she would be left behind as the others evacuate, which is something that's common irl as well.
Charlotte Webber (Sun-Spider) has Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and is an ambulatory wheelchair and crutch user. As shown in the comics she is also queer! She was created by Dayn Broder, a queer disabled comics editor and writer who also has EDS. Sun-Spider’s screentime in Across The Spiderverse was awesome especially the design of her wheelchair. She has web-shooters equipped in her crutches which she uses to fight with. She’s just so fucking cool and hopefully gets more inclusion in comics in the future.
Propaganda:
Charlie is SO important to me as a disabled person because she shows that we can be superheroes while still being disabled, we don't have to have our disabilities taken away to be super. She's also a very fun character! She's funny!
Mostly what I said in the last section, but once again she’s so cool and her wheelchair in ATSV is so sick (when she is not using it it follows her with sort of mecha spider legs).
Heart-Moonlight Chicken
Qualifications:
He's deaf (and I think one of the first ever deaf love interests in a Thai drama) and canonically gay with a boyfriend.
hes canonically deaf and gay
Heart is a gay deaf character in the drama moonlight chicken.
Heart is canonically deaf and canonically has a boyfriend at the end of the series! :)
Canonically queer and deaf
He’s canonically deaf and the love interest of another male character (Li Ming)
Propaganda:
A lot of his storyline is about the struggles of being deaf in Thai society. The show is only 8 episodes and he’s only a supporting character so it can't go super in depth to it but his arc was really well done imo. He lost his hearing due to illness like 3 years before canon (I forget th exact time frame), but his parents shut him away and never learned sign language so his storyline is about being able to come into his own and leave the house and everything. Like his love interest learns sign language for him and researches what to do to help him feel normal and supports him as his parents are forced to confront how they've failed their son with their lack of acceptance of being deaf. Like his whole story is just him finally getting to live his life normally again after being shut off from the world and having a supportive boyfriend. At the end of the show, he goes to a deaf college in America to study engineering.
he became deaf after a disease and since then is isolated in his home for 3 years. these years also coincide with the pandemic. and his parents didnt learn sign, just writing their messages in a paper and sliding it to him without hearing what he has to say. he was also presumably degraded for talking because it wasnt very clear because hes literally deaf. his parents by the end of the show try to talk better to him through sign but good god. he was so lonely
Heart is an amazing character. His story show us the hardships he faces with his family acceptance but also the importance of forming a community. His love story with ming is beautiful and heartwarming.
Heart is sheltered by his parents after losing his hearing due to illness. Throughout the series, however, his parents gain more understanding of him and his abilities and he gains a found family with his boyfriend Li Ming and Li Ming's family and it's all so heartwarming and wholesome. Although his parents see him as unable to live a normal life after he loses his hearing, he disproves this by seeking work, building relationships, and getting into college for engineering. He is the best boy!
When we first meet Heart, he is very sheltered from the outside world by his parents, who have taken pretty much no effort to understand Heart’s needs or wants since he lost his hearing. He is homeschooled and doesn’t seem to have any friends or sense of community. His parents leave him alone all the time, choosing instead to focus on their work. His bedroom is full of notes that his parents have left him. Hung up on the walls are different sign language posters, clueing the audience into the fact that he taught himself sign language. Over the course of the show, Heart develops a friendship and, eventually, relationship with Li Ming, a boy who works at a chicken rice shop. Li Ming sneaks Heart out of the house, where they do all kinds of things together – participating in a lantern festival, attending a community gathering for deaf folks, and learning how to drive a motor scooter, off the top of my head. While learning how to ride the motor scooter, however, Heart has a small accident and his parents find out about him sneaking out. The confrontation scene is one that is definitely best translated on-screen, but I’ll try to describe it the best I can. Basically, Heart, Li Ming, and Heart’s parents all hash it out. Heart’s parents accuse Li Ming of influencing Heart to disobey them, Li Ming explains that Heart wanted – and is capable of – doing the things they did together, Heart’s parents barely even look at him during the entire exchange, Heart finally gets fed up and tells his parents exactly how they make him feel, and Heart’s parents have to ask Li Ming what Heart was saying. After this confrontation, things get a bit better with Heart’s parents, though not perfect. At the end of the show, Heart and Li Ming travel overseas together, where Heart attends university and Li Ming works, a dream they talk about quite a few times over the course of the show.
He’s the first deaf love interest in a Thai drama! And he has the most adorable love story with another guy called Li Ming in the show who learns sign language in order to communicate with him more effectively. While he faces struggle from his parents being extremely overprotective after he lost his hearing a few years ago (also since he’s still a teenager) it ends up resolved with them changing their mindset and allowing him full freedom. His story shows struggle while not being a tragedy, and he ends the show going to study in America with his boyfriend being really happy <3
Anything Else?:
I feel like it isn't very often we see deaf queer characters, especially not ones who find love and a happy ending!

Hey,
-So I'm very excited to write this 'cause I've been meaning to do it for a while now. So yah here I go...
-I just love your art so so much! Like fr bro you give me so much joy with your fanarts. I haven't felt this attached to an artist and certain art style in a while but you bring it all back with what you're doing and I'm so extremely grateful. So y'know... Thank you deeply from the bottom of my heart.
-I love every piece you've made so far but I gotta say ... That one with the remake of the amazing Spider-Man 2 graduation was just out of this world. Andrew's spiderman is my favorite of the live action trio and I love that one part so much! But I gotta say... Take this as an idea lol... So there's one more part of that movie I deeply love. It's the part where Peter makes the "I love you" on a bridge and then takes Gwen and they make it up to each other... Can't help but see miles and Gwen do that as well. Like in the end of beyond like them getting together or like maybe Miles proposing like that IDK! Take my idea 💡!
-Ok so that's my fav fanart but I'm absolutely in love with their beautiful family! Their kids look so beautiful and them being together is something I treasure a lot! I love how you made the kids different then the comics and also the way you made Miles and Gwen! They look so good! I love Gwen's side braids and Miles haircut it's like... I don't see him doing it BUT I freaking love the spider detail in the side! I even told my friend that if I had my hair like Gwen someday I would add that detail! It looks so good! So perfect like chef's kiss! Also the first art I saw of their kids was that one with Peter B calling Miles and Gwen for having kids and them all just being like:
Max and Charlotte: who the hell is this dude?
Miles and Gwen: What the actual f-
Miles (dad): Idk who the hell you are but please don't touch my kids...
-I also love miles 42 and Gwen 42 art... It looks so cute and she looks hot as hell btw. I also find it very funny when they are having a double date with miles 1610 and Gwen 65. They look adorable ... So different but very refreshing I really like it!
-Look like I mentioned I'm beyond have and grateful that you're making art like this... It's not just the art or the art style but the impact it made me! You're very talented and special! I can't wait for more beautiful art from you. I hope you're getting all the support you deserve and that you're doing well! Never stop smiling and have a nice day/night!
-Hope you get to read this soon and sorry for being so long! But this is just a fraction of what I was meaning to tell you so yah....
-Thank you for everything and for your time! Bye❤️🌻🫂🕸️
I am always amazed when people say these kind of things to me. It means everything to me to know I can bring even just a little bit of joy to someone through my passion, so I would like to say thank you to you 💕.
Agreed. Andrew is my favorite version of Peter, the vibe of his movies really speak to me. I love the scene you’ve mentioned, but it breaks my heart because of Gwen’s fate. However I would love to do that for Miles and Gwen. Right now I’ve got a lot of pieces in progress, so don’t expect it right away, but if I find a chance to do it I will ✨
I really enjoyed drawing their kiddos and had every intention of drawing them differently from the comics. I wanted to do my own interpretation of their kids since the spiderverse style if different from the comics. I actually based Gwen’s braids on some of her concept art, I loved that look (it’s viking-ish which I dig) so I wanted to do something with it.
Though Miles and Gwen 42 are not exactly canon, I still love the idea of them and so I’m glad you have enjoyed what I have made.
Just so you know, I’m very moved by what you said and all your heartfelt thoughts about my art. It’s lovely to hear what you think and how it has given you joy. It’s all I could’ve asked for as an artist so I hope you know how grateful I am 🩷

I did a study on the Spiderverse art style and BOY GOLLY THIS IS THE BEST PIECE OF ARTWORK I HAVE EVER CREATED. No joke, this took three hours to make and out of all the hundreds of hours of digital art content I’ve created this is my favourite and I am so proud. I don’t typically create art for anyone but myself and maybe my partner so this post is a first for me so be kind, constructive criticism only.
Anyhoodles, if you hadn’t guessed all ready this is my Spiderverse original character. Her name is Bonibel “Bonnie” Soileau aka the amazing Venom Weaver! A few fun facts to get to know them.
- Bonnie uses She/They pronouns
- She is New Orleans born and raised!! (That’s right, baby, she’s a French speaker!! (But only Canadian French because I have no clue how to speak Louisiana French 💀))
- In my au they are Peter B. Parker’s love interest
- She has a sassy Siberian cat named Fenêtre who also acts as their emotional support animal
- This lady is southern on every account. She’s sassy, mean, and she will tell you how it is no matter how it makes you feel
- they are the worst kind of hermit. Literally live in squalor because they refuse to spend money on furniture
- Gambling addict but she can play a mean game of poker
- They started off as a vigilante killer avenging the death of her fiancé
- Ironically, she’s a criminal prosecutor (my lady is educated)
- She has vitiligo and heterochromia
Anyways, if y’all want to know more please let me know!! She’s my hyperfixation, a lot of love and care went into the creation of this lovely lady.

Nothing’s Gonna Change My World
Ch. 2 - Limitless Undying Love (shines around me like a million suns)
Chapter 1  Chapter 3  Chapter 4  Chapter 5  Chapter 6 Chapter 7 Chapter 8 Word Count: 4,339
Warnings: Attemped SA/kidnapping, Reader’s trauma from that event, a minor character dies of cancer
Pairing: Pavitr x F!Reader also found on AO3 and Wattpad. tagging @aiko-oba ---------- Preface: This story takes place several years after the events of Across the Spiderverse, Pavitr and the reader are somewhere in their 20s at this point in time. This story involves a reader who survives an attempted SA, there will be brief description of the rescue from the event, and extensive discussion of the emotional impact of the event on the reader. There will be no graphic descriptions of the event itself. The contents of this story may be triggering for some to read, for that reason. ------------ The nightmares start on the second night. Pavitr's sense yanks him out of a dead sleep by clawing across his face, the acidic sting raising the downy hairs on the nape of his neck. "I said NO! I don't w-wanna go with you, let GO of me!" Oh no. Pavitr tunes his ear to the upstairs apartment. There's no signs of footsteps, no tip-offs of a struggle. Only the gentle groans of a wood bedframe, the frum-frum of bedsheets rustling, thrashing limbs. Exasperated, he flops back onto the pillows with a sigh and gives his temples a good rub, catching the neon glint of his watch that read 03:17. He figured there's nothing that can be done until- "help help h-h-HELP me help me" His head feels crispy and cold, full of TV static so itchy and sharp, like ice shards thawing. The vague voice of his sense says listen listen listen and he does but he can't- "spiderman help ME help m-me help spiderman help me help spiderman please no" The shards go crack, crack, crack from all of the pain and it hurts hurts hurts him in his chest. You're hurting and the hurt is dribbling onto him drip, drip, drip through the floorboards. Pavitr hurts too, he wants to tear out his hair, and he wants to do nothing more but follow your voice through your window and help you, but he can't and the pain keeps drip-drip-dripping and- "spiderman PLEASE!" The sandal collides with the ceiling, leaves a footprint in the sheet rock that Pavitr knows will come out of his security deposit. He catches his breath, feels his pulse slow against his sweaty palm. He casts his hearing out once more, and hears only labored breathing. The drip slows, and you rouse, your sock feet sinking into the carpet. He tracks your steps across his ceiling, towards what must be your bathroom, and listens for the hiss of the tap. Technically he helped, right? Pavitr stifles a snort, and calls it a win in his book. He's fucking Spiderman, he always wins. He rolls over onto his stomach, taking his pillow with him. Hopefully, tomorrow is a better night. ---- Tomorrow was not a better night. Nor was the next one, the night after, or any of the other nights that followed. It was the same damn show every night - you have nightmare, you scream, Pavitr wakes up, Pavitr either finds a way to wake you up or waits it out, Pavitr feels like shit at work the next morning, which is a problem because then he has to try, and he hates trying. After the seventh day in a row, Pavitr resolves to engage in a little neighborly intervention. He pops down to the shops and lets his conscience be his guide. After 2 hours of meandering, he lands on a tin of Valerian root tea, two cozy-looking pairs of fuzzy socks (they make them with moisturizer now, apparently?), and almost grabs an admittedly adorable stuffed dog in a Spider-man costume, but decides it's a bit too on the nose, and instead selects one with a bandana next to it. Pavitr writes out what he hopes is a nice, supportive note that doesn't tip you off to who wrote it, and leaves all of this at your front door. He raises his hand to knock, and considers if he should introduce himself, but sadly concludes it's better that you don't meet him as Pavitr. You come home from work to find a conspicuously placed package hanging from your doorknob. You warily bring the plastic bag inside and open the unaddressed envelope, finding a handwritten note in bold, loopy script inside that reads: "Hey there neighbor, It sounds like you're going through a tough time right now. Don't worry, I'm not one to judge, I'm not mad, but I can tell whatever it is that's giving you such awful nightmares must be making you very stressed. Let's be clear, I'm not doing this to be passive-aggressive. That wouldn't help anything. But I do want you to know that whatever it is that's messing with your sleep, you're not alone. No one is alone, and people like you, dammit. I leave you with these in hopes that they help you find better dreams. And know that whatever it is you're fighting, we're rooting for you." You don't know what to think. Whether to be embarrassed your neighbors heard your screaming, worried that you were disturbing their sleep, scared that they really were mad, or grateful for their understanding. Your cheeks burn, and you douse them in the soft fur of the stuffed dog. That was a pretty nice touch. ----
Pavitr doesn't always dream of Spider-Man. When he does, it's usually mindless swinging, mental rehearsal of web tricks and acrobatics. A few physically impossible yo-yo tricks in mid-air with his bangles to change things up. Once in a blue moon, he gets a bad one. The kind where he's visited by a girl with helix pierces and kajal-lined eyes, eyes that shut forever. Tonight they're on the rooftop, that rooftop over by the club, and she's wearing a party dress that he knows he's seen before. She's crying, the kajal smearing into an inky mess on her lower lids. He reaches out to comfort her, wraps his tongue around her name the way he used to in the waking world, but she wheels around on her stilletto and wails- "please please spiderman no please don't go don't go don't leave me here" Immediately, Pavitr feels the icy creep of his sense along his jawline. That's not her voice. That's not her dress, either. Her tears are stained black, they are falling from her cut cheekbones with a drip, drip, drip, and she begs- "spiderman help help please don't leave don't go help me help don't leave me with him" His sense grabs, tugs, pulls him into the waking world. He's alone in his apartment again, alone with the baleful protests coming from the upstairs unit. Pavitr could cope with his neighbor's nightmares. But nightmares about him? With that, he could not abide. "Ah, fuck it." he declares, and hoists himself from bed to find his suit. Within seconds, he's cleaned up his flyaways, pulled up his mask, and is scaling your building to your living room window. Hesitantly, he raps on the pane, hoping the other neighbors don't hear. The pained screaming comes to an abrupt stop, and he does a little victory dance in his head. "(You)?" Pavitr whisper-shouts, one hand cupped over the glass. He hears, feels you gasp, head snapping to and fro looking for the sound, and he winces because he knows he's frightened you even more. "(You), you're okay, you're not in danger. Come to your window," he instructs. After a few seconds, he hears the squeak of the floorboards as you come over to draw back your curtains. There you are, gobsmacked and wide-eyed, looking sleepy-soft in your fluffy bathrobe. Pavitr gives a little wave and pantomimes opening the window, a request that you quickly grant. "May I come in?" he asks. "Spider-Man, what are you doing here? It's five forty-five in the morning?" you blearily inquire, exhaustion plainly evident in the puffiness of the space below your eyes. Beneath that, Pavitr detects relief in your features. "I was at my friend's place, I heard the shouting, I came over to check it out because I'm Spider-Man, that's my job, and it looks like you could use a friend right now. Please let me in?" he finishes with a cock of his head. You sigh and step aside, and he slips through the window frame, shutting the window gently behind him. His heart warms seeing the fuzzy socks from earlier on your feet. You end up on the couch, knees tucked against your chest. "I wish I could tell you I was doing well," you begin. "Clearly, I'm not. My neighbors are starting to call me out on it, too." "How long have the nightmares been going on?" Pavitr gently asks, even though he knows the answer. "Every night since...that," you confirm. "Don't get me wrong, I've tried everything I can think of. Guided relaxation, face masks, my neighbor even gave me this tea that's supposed to help with sleeping. Nothing's working. I'm falling behind at work now because I can't stop looking for him around every corner," The last sentence is particularly telling for Pavitr, as it's public knowledge that the creep who instigated all this is currently in jail, being held without bail until trial. "Trauma's not quite that simple, I'm afraid," he commiserates. "Personally, I found it helpful to talk to someone about it." "I'd imagine you've probably seen some shit that stayed with you," you agree. "It was...after my girlfriend passed away a few years ago," admits Pavitr, finding it difficult to maintain eye contact. "Oh...I'm so sorry to hear that," you offer. You're not quite sure what to do with that information. "Nah, it's alright," he waves it off. "As much as I like to think otherwise, I hit a point where I realized I needed help. So I got it. Talking to someone about it helped me get past the guilt I was feeling, and I've made my peace with what happened. Here and there I have some tough days, but therapy was really helpful in letting me move forward." "I'm just trying to wrap my head around the idea of Spider-Man of all people going to therapy," you think out loud, an outlandish image coming to mind of a superhero laid out on a couch, spouting feelings to no one in particular. "Really, it wasn't any different than any other grieving widow going," explains Pavitr. "I didn't have to bring being Spider-Man into it at all. I just had to be me, and be honestly me. It wasn't easy, 'yanno, but I'm very glad I did." "I guess I'll have to set something up then," you acquiesce. "I just feel like I should be better by now. Nothing actually happened. I'm just being a huge wimp about it-" "Uh-uh, don't start that shit with me," Pavitr interrupts. "Everyone needs help at some point in life, including me, as much as I like to pretend I don't." You watch as his hand clasps your knee, the skin buzzing where he touches. It's intimate, it should be uncomfortable, but you find it's simply not so. "You are strong. I know you might not believe that right now, but you are. Strong people are allowed to have feelings, bad days, bad nights," his hand squeezes, and you look up to see hints of rich brown irides trained on you through pale gossamer lenses. "None of that changes anything. No one is alone. Heck, when you let people in, you're stronger for it." You sigh, defeated. "You're right. I'm running out of people to lean on though. I had gone to the club with some friends that night, and for the most part, they've been...shitty about it." "Then lean on me," Pavitr declares, causing you to lift your head in surprise. "I know, it sounds ridiculous to suggest that. It probably is. But for now, let me bring you some peace, if you'll let me," and then he's standing, offering you his hand. A hand which you warily take and allow to pull you from the couch. "Where are you taking me?" you wonder, noticing that he's leading you to the window he came in through. Through his mask, you think you catch a fleeting sparkle of mirth in his eyes. "Do you trust me?" he asks, stepping out onto your fire escape. You answer that question by giving yourself over, letting him help you step onto the metal walkway outside. Pavitr's arm rounds your waist, and you're floating, slowly, up, up, up, like a lazy bubble of soap . You find your footing on the ledge of the rooftop, where he's holding your hands so you don't fall (you know he'd catch you). He guides your shoulders to orient you facing east, and carefully eases you into sitting. "(You), look up," he murmurs. You follow his pointing finger, and oh your tired heart smiles. It's sunrise now, the cityscape dusky purple against a noon chai sky, warm and milk-sweet. The sun is just cresting the horizon now, a tiny strip of bright, the light that you wish you could reach out and touch, pour it into a jar and tuck underneath your pillow to ward the nightmares away. The morning air is thick with marine layer, wet and cool on your tongue. You turn to look at your companion, and for the first time, you can really make out the detailing on his mask. Lenses outlined cerulean, black, and white, with stripes on his jawline like an elephant's tusks. Thick, well-kept black hair that shines in the orange dawn. bright, bright, bright "I've never been up here...it's beautiful, thank you for showing me this," you tell him. "You're very welcome," acknowledges Pavitr. "This is one of the ways I find peace when my head feels full. It's nice like this, to find the quiet when the world wakes." You don't miss the way his fingertips brush yours against the concrete ledge you're sitting on. Yes, it's nice like this, to welcome the new dawn, letting the sun's warmth seep into your bones. It's nice like this to watch with him. He floats you down to your fire escape later, after the first horns of the ever-present traffic echo off the buildings. Helps you back into your apartment window, like a true gentleman. Waves farewell, and promises he'll see you around. Now he's crawling back up to the rooftop, about to swing away and melt into the skyline, and your heart speaks for you, calls out: "Wait!" He ducks his head down from where he's perched on his web, wavy hair streaming below him. That's the moment when you take his face in hand, flip his mask down just so, and brush a kiss onto Pavitr's surprised mouth. It's soft, like a butterfly landing on a primrose petal, but it's deliciously hot, the warmth unfurling like a young fiddlehead frond, shivers traversing from your ears to your toes. Pavitr freezes, but his sense is singing in a way it hasn't for years. Just as quickly as it started, it finishes, and you flip his mask back up and tell him "Thank you." Your curtains are drawn, your window snaps shut, and Pavitr is literally left hanging, unable to do anything more then bring one hand to his lips where they still tingle. ---- It's a carton of fried chicken that ruins everything. "Yes, I'd like an explanation as to why my food hasn't arrived after 90 minutes? I was told to expect delivery within an hour," says Pavitr into his cell phone. He's in his building's lobby pacing up a storm, he's hungry and there's a cricket test on he's missing. "Sir, your driver appears to be experiencing some heavy traffic. It will be another 10 minutes, we apologize for any inconvenience this causes," is the reply of the dispatcher. "Heavy traffic? There's always heavy traffic, bro!" he hollers into the receiver. "Why is it now a problem today, and not any of the other days I've ordered from here?" "Sir, we do apologize, we're doing everything we can to get your order there, but is there any way I can interest you in a discount coupon for a future order?" the dispatcher appeases. Pavitr groans internally. "Fine, I'll take your coupon and go away." He doesn't notice the clicking of heels on the tile behind him. He doesn't hear the jingle of a keyring, the clunk of a lock, the grating whine of a mailbox hinge that desperately needs some WD-40. "Name on the order?" "Pavitr Prabhakar" The mailbox's owner pricks up their ears as they close the box, their mail in hand. "It looks like we have your building address, what unit are you in?" "Apartment 406" There's a gasp behind him, the keys hit the floor with a sharp shlink, the mail goes in a haphazard pile next to them. Pavitr turns on his heel to assess the damage, and nearly drops his phone himself when he sees you there. You, who has clearly put two and two together. You know his voice anywhere, and the mop of wavy black hair is unmistakably his, the build matches up just so. You, who lives in the apartment one floor up from Apartment 406. You, who kissed him yesterday morning and ran away. "(You), I can- I can explain-" he attempts, his throat full of nails and glass, his heart skipping between time signatures. There's nothing he can do but watch with feet cemented to the spot as you hurriedly gather up your things from the floor, looking like you're about to cry, and make a mad dash to the stairwell.It's cold comfort when the delivery man arrives eight minutes ahead of schedule. ---- "I think I'm ready," announces Pavitr, to no one in particular from an outsider's perspective. Pavitr knows otherwise. He's got his nicest henley on, he's fixed his hair for the umpteenth time, and he's at your front door, again. He swallows down his nerves before he goes for it this time, and knocks one, two three times. Time stops when you open the door, and he gets a chance to take in your state. Your eyes are puffy, the whites of them pink and raw from obvious crying. The exhaustion in your countenance is even moreso than before, he thinks a gentle breath might cause you to crumble into dust in the wind. Moreover, he sees the fear, the shame and embarrassment hiding beneath. He hates knowing he did that with his lies and half-truths. "May I come in?" Pavitr gently asks, voice soft, an apology unspoken on his lips. "I...sure," you give in, and stand aside to let him pass. In minutes, you're both at the kitchen table, mugs of the Valerian root tea in hand. It gives some small part of him relief to know you're getting some comfort from it. "I'm sorry I kissed you without asking," you start off, outright refusing to make eye contact, lest you start catching any more feelings. Pavitr sets his mug down, sets his hand palm up on the table as a gesture of peace. "I'm not," he replies simply. The answer causes you to whip your head around, the most incredulous expression painted on your features. Pavitr's face is nonplussed across from you. "How can you possibly be okay with that?" you ask in disbelief. "You were just trying to be nice to me, because it's your job to be, and I just- I went in and- you know..." you gesticulate a bit, searching for the words, as if you could pluck them from the heavy air and pop them on your tongue. "Felt the tension building between us, correctly picked up on some of my own signals, and then allowed yourself to be confident and make your move," Pavitr finishes your thought for you. "There's no denying I was flirting, and I don't think you have anything to be sorry for. I think you should be proud of yourself, if anything. Giving Spider-Man the upside-down kiss without him expecting it is a pretty slick move, 'yanno?" he quirks an eyebrow, trying to lighten the mood. "But we're neighbors," you stress to him. "You and whoever else has had to listen to me screaming in my sleep for the past week. We have to deal with each other whether we like it or not. I ran away because I didn't want to make things awkward for you," you explain. "You're not making anything awkward, (You)," Pavitr assures. "I think I'm the one who needs to apologize here. I lied to you, flirted, and lied some more, I'm a little surprised you're embarrassed and not angry with me." "You only did all that because you have to," you counter. "I only did all that because I like you, (You)," he admits, allowing his hand to fold over yours on the table. The skin of his palms is soft and warm, and makes your hair stand on end to feel. The smile he gives you is warmer, brighter, like you knew it'd be under that mask. "Talking with you, showing you the sunrise, getting you the stuffed dog-" "That was you?" you interrupt. "Yes, all me, but anyways-" he sighs. "You're right, in some ways. I can't be responsible for everything and everyone. I thought I could be, once. And then..." he trails off. "And then...?" you prod, gently urging him to continue. Pavitr takes a deep breath, from the belly. "And then...I lost Gayatri," he breathes, the statement no more than a whisper on the breeze. "That's your girlfriend?" you clarify. "She was, yes," he affirms. "She had leukemia. Tried every doctor she could get to, but there was nothing anyone could do for her, not in this universe, nor any other," he allows himself to reminisce. "She died three years ago. Gayatri fought and fought but she was so tired. I held her at the end, kissed her anywhere I could reach and told her she could go, that she'd earned rest." He pauses, feeling the frog crawling in his throat. "Gayatri fell asleep on my chest and never woke up. And for a long time, I blamed myself for that," he finishes, voice wavering as the shine of unshed tears forms in his eyes. "I'm...I'm so sorry that you went through that, that's terrible," you respond, not knowing where to begin. "It sounds like you were a wonderful boyfriend to her, and that she left this world knowing she was so loved. I truly don't know how anyone could have possibly done better." "And that's exactly the point. I couldn't have saved her. There was no universe where I could have, nor anyone else, for that matter," Pavitr says, pausing to dab at the moisture on his eyelids. "I carried around that guilt, that shame because I felt like I was the hero, that I had to save her. With some hard work, I was able to put that down, and acknowledge that it happened, that I did all the right things and that was okay. I may have superpowers, but I'm still a human with limits, and feeling obligated to do anything won't get anywhere productive. I'm imperfect and I'm okay with that now." "So...if you didn't do what you did out of obligation...why did you?" you ask. Pavitr sniffs, smiling fondly. "Well, if you have to ask, at first I just didn't want you to pass out. But then you calmed down and I got you to laugh and smile a little, and I realized that for the first time in a few years, I wanted you to keep smiling and never stop, I couldn't stand letting you cry or have bad dreams," he takes your other hand now, brings them between you just like he did on the roof, after the third or fourth time he called you darling. "In short, you stole my heart. Please be gentle with it, I've always been a bit of a softie," he confesses, calf brown eyes sparkling with gentle affection, enough to tempt you to melt into a puddle on the spot. "I..." you splutter, brain short circuiting as you try to process Spider-Man confessing his crush on you in your kitchen. "Would it help if I told you that I spent all of yesterday thinking of reasons I could come back to kiss you myself?" Pavitr smugly asked, knowing very well what he was doing. "I think you helped me a little too well yesterday, because I have to be sleeping, still. There's no way Spider-Man is confessing to me right now in real life," you protest, brain still refusing to compute. "He's not. But I am, he replies, coming around the table to kneel beside you. "My name is Pavitr. Pavitr Prabhakar, your downstairs neighbor in Apartment 406, who is very proud of you, thinks highly of you, and happens to also be very fond of you. And if you'll let me..." he strums his thumbs along the back of your joined hands, and gives a gentle tug, cuing you to stand up with him. "I'll be careful with your heart from now on, if you promise to be careful of mine?" he proposes, anxiously awaiting your answer (although he'd die denying the anxious part). "There's...no way you want that..." you stammer out, still trapped in denial. Your face is burning at this point, palms sweating in Pavitr's hold. "You're Spider-Man, dammit, there's no way in hell you would want to be with a crybaby like mph-" He doesn't let you finish, because he's just pressed two fingers against your lips, and cradled your jaw with his other hand. "Don't you dare finish that sentence, darling," he purrs. He removes his fingers and immediately melts a kiss onto your surprised mouth. It's slow, unhurried, warm. Pavitr takes your face in both hands and holds you there, until your walls crumble and you relax into him. You part, happy tears tracking down your cheeks, which he quickly wipes away with  the pads of his thumbs. He knows you don't believe he'd want you, so he chases your lips and shows you how much he does. He kisses you like the way he honeys his words, milk-sweet like noon chai, like a sunrise- bright, bright, bright ---- (You fall asleep on his shoulder after a night of laughing so hard your tea comes out of your nose.) (You vaguely remember him carrying you from the couch to your bed, tucking you snugly under the covers, and pressing a long kiss to your forehead.) (You don't remember him sitting beside you, petting your head for a good half-hour to be sure you've fallen into a deep sleep, but you wake up alone the next morning, feeling refreshed after dreaming only the sweetest dreams.)

I’ll be honest with you - in season 1 of WOT:
I didn’t exactly love what I’m calling the Main Character Squad (Rand, Egwene, Perrin, Mat, Nynaeve). Like don’t get me wrong - I didn’t hate them. I just thought they were … idk … boring? And this may warrant a rewatch, I’ll admit I was not in the best place emotionally while watching the season. But I just felt like they were kind of flat with maybe the exception being Mat and Nynaeve who I was kinda like 👀 what’s going on. Mat had that whole corrupted by darkness thing going on with him and Nynaeve was just a fucking badass and seemed highly motivated to protect her friends from the get go. But idk Rand felt like he was just kinda …… there? Same with Egwene and Perrin.
(This is ending up turning into an essay so I’m gonna put shit below a cut)
They were cool characters and I obviously was rooting for them to get reunited and stuff but I was like “eh???” Until maybe the very end when things started falling in place and the plot became a lot more sticky (as my friend describes plots that suddenly have a lot of competing motivations all coming together)
So I think my main issue was with their writing rather then the characters themselves. I’m coming at this as a complete outsider to WoT - never read the books and even if I did, I believe an adaptation must be able to stand on its own. And what I think happened was that season 1 like *had* to catch everyone up on the lore of the world, why Moiraine was so hellbent on finding the Dragon, what the hell the Aes Sedai were, etc. etc.
And it may have somewhat put characterization on the backburner until the end when they were like “we caught you up to speed now here’s the plot”. I guess they felt passive, like the plot was just happening to them instead of them driving the plot. Like we got hints of stuff - I was confused about what was going on with Perrin, then really intrigued towards the end when the wolves attacked the White Cloaks camp. And then of course the whole Eye of the World thing and Ishamael being released and him cutting Moiraine off from the One Power.
But idk, most of that season just fell flat to me.
The second season however, whooooo boy did I get fucking invested in those crazy kids. I was like “why can’t Nynaeve deliberately channel? [Insert Spiderverse “can’t do it on command” meme here]”, “oh fuck how is Egwene going to get out of this and also fuck you Renna”, “Rand please don’t go crazy”, “Perrin is like spiritually connected to wolves??? I need to know more about how that is a thing”, “Mat I swear to god you better not be evil because I’m like rooting for you”.
And of course I was really invested in the supporting characters - like Moiraine’s journey, Liandrin’s betrayal, Lanfear’s … everything (god I love her).
And oh god was it almost empowering to see their arcs play out.
- Rand struggling with the fact that he is indeed the Dragon Reborn and that male channelers tend to go batshit and kill everyone they love.
- Perrin becoming more familiar with his wolf-powers (I forgot what they were called or if they even had a name I’m sorry) … and being caught between his humanity and his wolf side. RIP Hopper, I’m glad you were avenged almost immediately.
- Egwene first off like: struggling with the fact that Nynaeve was kind of distant (because Nynaeve was obviously dealing with her own issues) but sticking with her friend. And then getting fucking captured and enslaved and like thrown into one of the most disempowering positions one can get into… and she fucking still held her own and never gave in. God I think her arc is like my favorite one this season. Fuck you Renna I’m glad you fucking got what you deserved.
- Mat dealing with the aftermath of the dagger and just having this darkness inside of him. He had been pushed down and kicked all his life, people viewed him as a loser, and he had that attitude towards himself as well. I felt like a connection to him because yeah, that boy is just a touch depressed, and as someone who’s dealt with their own mental health issues and ADHD absolutely making me feel like I’m constantly failing everyone including myself …….. good lord did his arc make me feel some feelings. Like he took that darkness - namely the dagger - and he used it to fight his way out. And then he’s a fucking hero of the horn. That is unironically super fucking inspiring to me.
- Nynaeve not being able to channel on command, being almost afraid of the power she can wield (I think that’s the angle they’re going for at least - though it also does seem to be very attached to her emotions). Out of all the main character squad: I liked her the most in the first season. She was very much motivated to protect her friends. Like I do see her kind of as the mother figure of the group (and not in a derisive way - like she will absolutely fuck a person up if they hurt her friends as we saw in season 2 with that sul’dam), the “heart” in the five man band. Like *almost* like Katara in a way and I really loved Katara so there you go.
- honorable mention to Moiraine because she thought that she had to handle this shit on her own. She had to figure out what Ishamael and the Dark One were planning while protecting Rand and also dealing with the aftershocks of her being cut off from the One Power. Something that Verin very much analogized to being assaulted or raped. And Moiraine just kept trucking, carrying the burden of what she felt like her own responsibilities like she carried those fucking buckets up the hill. The season was her realizing she could rely on others and she didn’t have to be as closed off as she was being. And oh my god once she got the One Power back she (a woman who was already plenty fucking badass during this entire season) like went to fucking S-tier levels of badass. God I fucking love her.
Basically: I’m saying that I loved season 2 very very much and I’m now rooting for these crazy kids to fuck shit up and save the world.
Also I love every single woman in this show who’s not Renna or the Seanchan because fuck those slavery loving assholes.

Hiya! I’m an 18 year old trans masc with 6-7 years of roleplay experience, literate, EST, looking for 18+ roleplay partners! I do NOT do NSFW and we can hash out boundaries more in depth in DMs. Any characters I play are aged up to at least 18 by default. I don’t like romance plots though am vaguely open to them if they’re interesting enough.
I only roleplay on discord! I do ocxoc, ocxcanon, canonxcanon pairs(preferably platonic pairs). I do double or however many characters you’d like us to play, and even crossovers! I actually enjoy supporting any of your characters with MC syndrome so don’t be afraid to ask. You can expect a reply from me at least once every other day or back and forth if i’m excited for the roleplay, and i’d prefer if you could respond in kind. I love chatting OOC, and the more comfortable I get with you the more i’ll type. My favorite tropes are everything tragic, dark, adventure, whimsy and mystic, those insane ideas you usually daydream about instead of asking to roleplay out and anything out of the ordinary! I enjoy world building in settings such as wild west, historical, horror, fantasy medieval, thriller, mystery, taking a world from one of my fandoms and changing it how we please, etc. I usually type 3-4 paragraphs though I prefer quality over quantity from my roleplay partners. I’ll let you know immediately if I don’t feel interested in the roleplay so we can change it up somehow. Like the post if you’re interested and i’ll hit you up, or DM me, I don’t bite I promise, and I’m interested in large servers if you’d like me to play a character from one of my fandoms too! >:D
Most of my fandoms below and favorite characters to play are listed in parentheses!
Stranger Things(Billy Hargrove, Eddie Munson, Argyle)
Wednesday(Ajax, Tyler, Yoko, Xavier, Kent, Rowan, Enid, Wednesday)
Scream(Billy Loomis, Stu Macher, Charlie Walker, Ethan Landry)
Harry Potter(OCs, Draco Malfoy, Sirius Black. Fan cast characters such as the Slytherin boys - Theodore Nott, Blaize Zabini, Mattheo Riddle, etc.)
The Black Phone(Vance Hopper)
The Ranger’s Apprentice(Gilan, Will Treaty, Evanlyn aka Cassandra)
Marvel(Loki, Thor, Peter Parker, Tony Stark, Hela, most other male MCs or ocs)
Spiderverse(Ocs, Hobie Brown, Gwen, Pav, Miguel O’hara)

yknow what in honor of it being the spiderversary i will actually talk about gwiles again. here's a handy cheat sheet of my takes:
fired: "gwen and miles are star-crossed soulmates with a pure connection that's unique to only them who are going to defy canon to end up together yet they simultaneously Must Be Canon Endgame Love Interests Across All Media Forever." fuuuuuuck off.
tired: "gwen and miles are a good couple who must always come as a pair and can never have their own individual love interests, worlds, supporting casts or plotlines where they can exist without being joined at the hip ever again." do you even care about them as individuals or is the vague concept of them as a couple all you're here for.
expired: "gwen thought she was gay, but miles was her bi awakening! they're so bi4bi!" ..... this is the third time she's been shoved back into the closet so she can be romantically available to him. by definition miles is why she can't come out. the best case scenario where they get together is the one where they marry in their early 20s, pump out babies he wants more than she does and are basically superpowered family vloggers. gwiles is the most heterosexual ending for gwen possible and miles will never be truly supportive of gwen's queerness if they're a couple. please retire this take. if you want gwen to be in a m/f romance with a queer black boy, spider-punk is right there.
hired: "gwen and miles are high school sweethearts who date for a bit and then amicably break up and remain friends." acceptable outcome if spiderverse gwiles spreads. it ain't great but we can work with it.
wired: "gwen and miles are makorra. there's an initial spark but it burns out fast, they clown themselves for a while before they admit they suck as a couple, they break up and are better friends after the drama settles down, and he supports her when she comes out.” the smarter, more honest version of gwen and miles as love interests.
admired: "gwen and miles are only friends and do not date." please.
inspired: "gwen and miles are exes who avoid each other in public because their relationship was that much of an embarrassing trainwreck." if we get a gwiles storyline that actually unpacks how bad they are for each other and owns how bad miles specifically has been for gwen and then lets them permanently break up as they conquer the character flaws that led them to each other in the first place i'd lap that shit up. especially if we get gwen growling at him like a chihuahua whenever they're in the same room. it's what she deserves. it's what he deserves.
conspired: "miles and gwen are narrative foils being pressured by the watchers into a romance designed to strip them of their morals and their narratives' meaning to make sure they can never redefine their canon aka break their cycles of suffering or help anyone else do the same by making them complicit in each other's destruction." subtextually their need for each other's approval is their fatal flaw, and if they give in to the arranged spidermarriage miles becomes the villain of gwen's story as she's sucked back into the tragedy she fought so hard to escape. they have to realize their relationship is a cosmic trap, resist temptation, break into heaven and kill god together. and THEN become exes who are petty but in a fun way!

Spider Man: Across the SpiderVerse Review
I have not felt this compelled to put my thoughts about a movie out there into the world for a while. The last time I did so was before the pandemic and a lot in my life has happened since then but I love it when I finally decide to watch something from a never-ending backlog of movies, especially for animation which is probably one of my first loves. 
So I lied. It’s a review of 2 films; Spiderman: Into the Spiderverse and its recent sequel Spiderman: Across the Spiderverse. Both from Sony pictures Animation, a studio which prior to me watching these 2 films, only released disappointing to bad films in my opinion (looking at you emoji movie). I finally felt compelled to watch them recently mainly to watch Across the spiderverse in theaters. 
First, I’ll make my thoughts on Into the spiderverse relatively brief. It truly is a game changer of a film for the would of animated movies. Amazing that it won an Oscar.  The animation alone really pushed the boundaries of what the medium could do, and the story was well contextualized and wrapped up. I loved the nots and references to comics throughout the film. Miles’ growth throughout the first film is truly a masterclass of storytelling of a young teenager finding his place in the world and taking on new challenges in his life. In the meantime, working to develop better relations with his supportive parents and carve out his own version of Spiderman. This is probably the best use of the multiverse concept that I have seen so far in film. The animation styles between each spider hero is great at defining characteristics. I loved how they went in the direction of Spider-Gwen for this film, it makes her more bad ass for sure and more of a character than a tragic plot motive. Her scenes with Miles are also so cute (Put a pin in that we will get into that more later for the 2nd film). Mile’s relationships with the men in this film, his dad, Uncle Aaron (aka the Prowler), and Peter B Parker are great representations of mostly healthy male relationships that I feel like isn’t as well represented in media these days. Each one of them helps Miles evolve over the first film to come into his own with his powers and with his feelings and interpersonal relationships with people. Loved the involvement of Aunt May and Penni, Peter porker and Spider Noir. Wish we got to see more of them, which hopefully we will in Beyond the Spiderverse (Put a pin on that too). I also love the influence of hip hop and the urban influence of Brooklyn in this film, the sound track is fire. Honestly what are you waiting for please watch this film.
Ok time for the big kahuna; Across the Spiderverse. WOW. Just wow. Into the Spiderverse is amazing in its own right but wow was it kicked up a notch tenfold for Across the Spiderverse. Starting off easy, the animation in this film once again is PHENOMINAL. But one element that really stood out over the previous film, the use of Color Theory, especially with Gwen. Holy Cow they nailed it with expressing subtle emotions through out this film using color theory, every single frame in this film should be in the Louve, I’m deadass. I loved the introduction of Spider-India and Spider-Punk. Loved how Pavitr literally called out Miles and Gwen having a thing lol, also the use of his bracelets, similar to a type of toy, being used in his web slinging is such a fun touch. Hobie really be that surprise MVP, who was actually punk this whole time, probably is the only one Miles trusts at this point, who loves chaos and taking down the Miguel influenced spider verse society. Also, him calling Miles Peter Pan and GWENDY…fucking iconic lol. I wish we could have seen more of Peter B Parker but happy to see him embracing Dad life with his little anarchist baby Mayday, who also helps confirm that the spider powers can be genetically passed on.
Some other notes before I get to the gushing part of this whole ass review. I loved how Miles’ parents and Gwen’s Dad evolved over the course of this film. For Rio and Jeff, they had to learn not to be helicopter parents to Miles, while also coming to grips that he is becoming an adult and still worrying over their baby. The parallels between them and my parents are astounding and the conversations very similar to what I had with them growing up at that age. Also exhibited in Gwen’s Dad, him falling upon duty as a police officer when he discovers his own daughter is Spider woman, thinking she killed her buddy but then its actually his daughter, and he resorts to being an officer. She was wicked lucky Miguel and Jess were willing to allow her through the portal, which makes sense because she did not have a home to go back to.  Also I really enjoyed all the easter eggs and the meta commentary on what Cannon is and the idea that a spider person has to suffer in order to be a spider person; and Miles being like FUCK That I’m not an abnormality and imma save my Dad and do me. Which comes full circle with what Rio talked to him about the world being harsh against him and to know that family will always be there and to nurture that inner child. Miguel clearly is drinking his cool aid too much on maintaining cannon but will he remain the enemy until all the spider people turn against him? Spot turning out to be the guy Miles threw a bagel at from the lab escape in the first film is wild. Also Spot over the film slowly becoming more powerful and will probably do something really bad to mess up the multiverse. Hopefully Miles and family are safe from all this. Also the fact the spider that bit Miles came from Earth-42, and Miles G Morales is the Prowler in that dimension. There better be an epic fight sequence in the beginning of the film between those three. Curious to see if Miles G will be an antagonist or not along with Aaron.
However, what ultimately really made me fall for this film is the decision narratively to make Gwen a significant part of the story and the relationship between Gwen and Miles. I can’t help it in a sucker for teen angst and pining. But let’s start off about dear Gwen. Good lord I feel terrible for her. She was put through the ringer in this movie. She is brought up to almost/Basically co main lead in this movie. We really get a much more fleshed out backstory of hers, dealing with how her Blonde Peter Parker died and dealing with hiding her identity from her father while he is unknowingly hunting her down. She, along with Miles are both struggling with hiding their secret super hero identities to their parents, main difference being Miles told his alternate dimension Mother, while at the end of the film when Gwen gets banished by Miguel back to her universe, she is forced to confront her father. The Color theory used on Gwen to convey her true feelings that she doesn’t state in the film is such a genius decision and it creates some of the most visually striking images in the film. The colors blue used to express her sadness and loneliness and the color pink, to express her happiness in her surroundings was a brilliant idea. I also loved how her Earth was just filled with water colors it’s like a painting I love it. Throughout the film, we see her struggling with dealing with her shitty home life, dealing with the cannon knowledge about Miles, feeling the need to follow the cannon timelines, believing she will die if she deviates from the timeline and her father would die as well, while trying to protect Miles but also having the desire to see him. She’s dealing with so much and is really put in a rock and a hard place, that in the process of trying to protect Miles, she unintentionally betrays him (same can be said for the other spider people Miles made friends with besides Hobie). Could she have told him the truth sooner, probably, but I think the outcome would be similar. However, after finally communicating with her Dad, taking the leap of faith if you will, like Miles, she is able to get through to her Dad and he breaks the Cannon event of himself dying on duty by quitting being a cop. This gives her the resolve, along with Spider-Punk’s wicked helpful homemade dimension watch to start looking for Miles and go from leaving a band and distancing herself from everyone around her, to getting people together who know Miles to help find him, and of course take down Miguel and Spot. What a beautiful arc for her, which I believe is not over yet, she still has some work to do to make up with Miles in the next film. But she’ll do so, she down bad for him lol.
Speaking of which, what really gave me life in this movie was the relationship between Gwen and Miles. Lord it is oozing young puppy crush love and I’m so here for it. It was clear from the 1st film Miles was into Gwen, and its only solidified further a year and change out from then. I mean stating you want to go to Princeton for Quantum Physics and dimensional travel…like boy we know why because you want to see all the spider homies again, especially the girl 15 months older than you that you draw from memory filling up almost every page of her, and adding her to your graffiti mural where you got bit. Looking at better photos of the note book he even drew her dancing like a ballerina, he drew her fresh drip, including new sweaters and chain chokers, and he drew her eating ramen like MY BOY you’re in a crush deeper than the deepest cervices of the ocean, you have it down so bad for her. Meanwhile Gwen while being sad, managed to still keep the half-buzzed hair cut from the 1st movie because Miles liked it. She’s shown to be constantly thinking about him, including the beginning drum sequence which is “Trust by Megadeath” (Look at the lyrics also btw, they honestly do foreshadow Gwen and Miles relationship as it stands at the end of the film), and throughout her universe missing him the one person she considers a friend. Also, she printed out a selfie of the two of them and looks at it every time she goes out as spider woman. That photo might as well be her social security card she treasures it so much. The only reason she is interested in joining the spider society also is to literally see him, which she doesn’t get to do until she convinces Jess enough to do an assignment in his world. And after finding out about his cannon events and getting an important assignment to go after Spot and stop him from messing up the universes, one of the most important missions to save the whole universes, and being warned to stay away from him, what does she do???? Ports straight to his bedroom, peroidt. She basically said Imma risk the universe for Miles; like im sorry that love bitch. Anyways she finds grounded Miles and he shook clearly. Gwen immediately goes in for the hug, and Miles be short circuiting, and trying to hide everything in his room. Gwen looking at all his drawings of her and very sweetly being all like “I missed you too”, only to slyly get Miles out of the house. They are so carefree swinging through Brooklyn and finally feel like they are their true selves. The sky also has a pink hue. And then when they get to the bank tower, their upside down talk is just so precious and done beautifully. Everything from Gwen being like I miss talking to you and Miles being like we the same. Miles inching ever so close to her about to Touch her hand MY BOYYYYY. Gwen going into how the Gwens fall for spider man, sees his hand inch closer, and then gives a very pained look mentioning that it doesn’t end well. Miles being the emotionally intelligent guy he is, respectfully pulls back and is all like “there’s a first time for everything” she gives him that look, you know that look of like I’m falling for you look, and purposefully LEANS INTO HIM. GIRL. She soooo into him but holds herself back due to all the bs she dealing with behind the scenes. At the rooftop party for Jeff, these two talking on the water tower, Miles almost finds out about Gwen tracking Spot, she gets briefly mad but apologizes, and then these two are so awkward teens to the point of like confessing a crush for real, and im sorry Is he looking at her lips wow. But before anything happens the parents show up. Gwen fumbles the bag by going on first name basis, and Rio is like “found a sweater, dis you?”. The parents come on to hard so I just feel second hand embarrassment for the both of them. Gwen makes an excuse to leave due to her tracking Spot you know the guy trying to destroy everything. She wanna touch Miles so bad she goes for the awkward hand shake. Damn. And of course what does Miles do later, he follows her to Spots portal hopping location and sees the exchange of Jess and Gwen, but Gwen before she leaves, looks out to the water tower, all the while Miles is invisible Upside down a la the spiderman kiss position. I cant yall. Also Gwen freaking out over Miles in Mumbatthan, and being all like “your amazing” to him after he changes the cannon event. That was so sweet. Its so painful to see how the ending of this film plays out with the betrayal. And his final sad goodbye to Gwen. She decides to talk to his parents, while using his jacket to hide her gear a la girlfriend vibes, to tell them how much he loves them and that she gonna find him. She is so determined and falling in love with him its not even funny. What really sealed the deal that these two I think will be end game, The fact that she can spidey sense he’s in danger IN A DIFFERENT DIMENSION!!!!! Oh My god, this is also similar to the first film where she had that spidey sense to go to the visions academy. Like lord if that’s not love idk what is at this point. They will need to work out some feelings which I hope comes up earlier in Beyond the Spiderverse so we can get back to some wholesome moments before all chaos breaks loose and hopefully, they will be endgame, and still alive.
TLDR: I love both of these films, go watch them please and Sony pay your animators better
ITSV: 4/5
ATSV: 4.5/5
