#polyamourous relationship

[marvel-redemption-omega]

I’m pretty sure that Lute enjoys dominating Adam & Reader at the same time. Or she doms Reader while Adam watches.

I'm pretty sure that the first time Lute decided she was going to be dom instead, and started ordering Adam around, he just fucking CRUMBLED. Like, brain short circuited and he was immediately in sub-space like it was his go to. He was embarrassed afterward, but low-key liked it and sometimes asks for Lute to dom him. I think this would have happened before Reader.

I like to think that Adam orders Lute to dom reader so he can watch or he doms Lute while she doms Reader or he doms both at once!

But Lute domming Adam and Reader??? Together??? I want to write that now! I think she would absolutely do this! Probably start with Reader and then turn to Adam and start dominating him.

Reader wouldn't understand at first, but quickly catches on because, like yeah, Lute has that kinda power and control like Adam does. And seeing Adam just get the same treatment he gives Reader or what Lute does to Reader? Reader fucking LOVES it. They probably ask to watch just the two of them to see what Lute does with only Adam.

You also actually guessed part of what I have written for part two of Make Me.. 😆 no spoilers, but Lute does get involved! I've been slacking on writing it... 😅

Hello! I know you probably haven’t gotten a request like this is a while, but I was wondering if you could do a reki x Langa x fem!reader poly!relationship fic where the reader is feeling like they aren’t really needed in the relationship and reki and Langa would be just fine without them? Like the reader feels less like they’re in a relationship and more like they’re third wheeling? I could use a great hurt/comfort from my favorite boys. Of course, if you’re busy or even if you just don’t want to, that’s perfectly fine, you don’t have to do this request if you don’t want to. <3

Langa + Reki + Reader - poly relationship woes

It’s a big surprise to both of them when [Y/N] wants to break up with them. They genuinely had no idea, or that they were doing anything wrong.

“Was it something we did?” Reki asked.

“Was it something we said?” Langa asked.

“No, it’s nothing like that.” She replied. Feeling uncomfortable with the situation; which was why she had been backing out on telling them all for weeks now. “I just think that maybe I’m in the way. Like…maybe you two aren’t comfortable being in just a gay relationship, so it’s a little easier to be in a relationship with a girl and a guy.” It certainly didn’t sound easier.

Langa pouted. “I’m not uncomfortable.”

“Yeah, no one feels that way. And we don’t think you’re in the way, or like some sort of buffer.” Langa nodded in agreement of Reki’s agreement.

The two boys then reached out and took our hands in theirs. “We’re sorry if we made you feel that way. We get a little��focused on each other sometimes. Especially when it comes to skating.”

“I get sort of tunnel vision with competition, but I want you to know that I’m always thinking of you.” Langa told her. [Y/N] blushed and squeezed their hands.

“Let’s get out of here!” Reki said with his usual beaming, blinding smile. “I want to do what you want to do today. We’ve done enough of what we want to do.”

“Can we go to the bookstore?” [Y/N] asked hopefully.

The boys grumble but agree. The bookstore was usually too quite for either of them, but if that was where [Y/N] wanted to go in their effort to make a point then they would.

“And can we get iced coffee after?” That was something they could all agree on.

The boys picked up their skateboards and carried them. Their free hands going back to [Y/N]’s for a bit, one for each, before they walked out to the street and let go. [Y/N] smiled. Maybe they had been a little dramatic, but it did feel bad to be neglected now and then. They certainly didn’t feel that way anymore, and felt they had the best boyfriends in the world.

Nikolai and Evelyn-character profiles

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Warnings: yandere, toxic relation ship, probably a bedly writen trans character, gramer mistakes, mentiond homophobia and misgendering, kidnnaping and other yandere staff(probably)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As Civilians

Okey so as civilians honestly they apire as a regular cople whail people do notis thet Nikolai is on the jelouse side thay mostly see it as oh ho doesnt like people flirting with his "girlfriend".

Even if his jelousy rans a lot deaper. Now i mentiond his "girlfriend" so with thet lets mention Evelyn and Evelyn is actoaly a trans man but gets misgendered really often and usualy doesnt corect people and this is becouse they live in a really conservative city where lgbtq+ comunity isnt really acepted so he is willing to pretend thet he gos by she/her until they can move out

As a Criminal

they arent really criminals if you dont count the yandere tendensies. But Nikolai is wiling to kill if it means to get what he wants

As a Yandere/in a relationship

this is where thinks get complicated becous they are bouth yanderes but they are a deferent kind of yandere Evelyn is the reall soft and harmles yandere meaning he is wiling to let you go but he is still obsesed with you whail Nikolai is the "i will kill anone thet gets in my way" tipe of yandere so Nikolai will kidnapp you just becous he got inpatient. And this is where Evelyn usualy steps in and i will just point out the fact thet only reacon becous Evelyn isnt looked up is becouse he is also a yandere and Nikolai knows this so if you get theyr atention and your best bet in heaving semi-autonomy is to stay with Evelyn as much as posible

I think the opinions that Astarion agrees to the poly relationship for less than ideal reasons and the choice to not opt for it are all valid, even if I don't think or choose the same. Because my headcanon is that:

There was a WAY better discussion than what the game dialogue gave us, and

Halsin and Tav carefully and beautifully teach Astarion what a healthy, loving relationship looks and feels like. They make him understand he is *safe*.

They show him true affection and respect. They are equals, even though they bring different things to the relationship. They always ask what he wants and respect all his desires, needs, requests, and refusals. And this does include sex. They make sure he is comfortable with them having sex, and always invite him no matter how many times he says no, which is always met with gentle and full acceptance.

So it starts with him watching, maybe shyly or maybe with that flirtatious swagger. Either way, he likes getting to see, and he relearns what real arousal feels like. And he's safe then, because he doesn't have to please or perform, but he knows he's wanted there and enjoys it.

Then he begins to interact verbally, commenting or responding to one of them or giving commands or making requests. And he's safe then, because they respond with enthusiasm and encouragement but still no pressure.

Then he begins to participate, touching them or kissing them at first, until eventually he's part of the fold of their three bodies moving in unified pleasure, where they welcome him without fanfare but with obvious joy. And then he is the safest he's ever been, surrounded by his lovers in a world all their own where no one would ever hurt, abuse, or use him.

All because he felt safe enough in the first place to learn arousal and pleasure and love because he was seen and known and accepted, without ever feeling like he wasn't enough or was too much.

(P.S. - I wrote a super NSFW version of this before editing it, and I think I should probably just write a fic lmao)

Confession: while I obviously want Astarion to get to a point where he can enjoy having sex again in a healthy way, I like to imagine that in the meantime he enjoys watching Tav get thoroughly fucked by Halsin, and even gets aroused by it, watching the person he loves writhe in pleasure, even if it's not him giving it to them.

After this new episode of Helluva Boss, I just want to be in a cuddle puddle with Ozzie and Fizz. Is that so much to ask?

Willing to do a story trade if anyone is down. 👀

Imagine that board gaming is a very important and valuable interest to you. It's integral to the way you express yourself and share important moments with people you care about.

You meet a partner who's your dream person, but they only want you to play board games with them. It would be a deep breach of trust for them to find out that you've played a game with someone else. You enter the relationship, thinking "I love this person dearly. Board games with other people are something I can give up to keep them around."

Over time, you find a bunch of different two-player games and land on a few that you really enjoy. You start to play those games more often. Chess, checkers, UNO, mancala, reversi, pick your poison. Eventually it becomes a routine.

But there are only so many two-player games, let alone ones you haven't tried already. You start to realize that different people have different play styles that you'll never get to try your hand against. Your attention is drawn to three-, four-, even many-player games that you're missing out on. You're curious about Wingspan, Pandemic, Catan. You want to try games like UNO with more than just one other person and see what effect the Reverse card should actually have. Meanwhile, you and your partner continue to play the same three or four games, only occasionally trying something new. It feels…unsatisfying.

So you ask your partner if maybe you could try playing chess with another friend who you think might pose a challenge and offer a different perspective…and they're hurt by this suggestion. "Is playing with me not enough for you anymore? Am I not enough for you anymore?" You realize they're not going to budge, and you grow frustrated, or even resentful, that such an important part of your life has to be locked down for you if you want to keep this person you love.

A lot of people are perfectly content playing board games with just one person. But out of those who aren't, some resort to playing games with others in secret, especially if losing the relationship will create undue hardship (housing, finances, etc). Others leave their partners, amicably or…otherwise. Others still, arguably MOST, simply consider their need for other board games to be a personal flaw, convince themselves that they're being selfish, and continue to let the resentment grow.

Congratulations, you now understand what monogamy feels like to a non-monogamous/polyamorous person.

[bisexual-and-polyamory-is-okay]

Polyamorous as in movie night snacks and cuddles piles, Polyamorous as in walks through a park and we see slides and swingsets with no one using them and we make a day out of it, Polyamorous as in we're walking downtown laughing on the way to our favorite food shop/store/vender, Polyamorous as in having a genuine connection to the people you love and care about because Polyamorous doesn't mean just lots of sex with multiple people. I mean, it can. But you get my point! Campfires and tent cuddles! Roasting smored with your partners and laughing at stupid joked or spooky stories. Give Me Some Domestic Polyamory.

Not many people know what amatonormativity is and I think that's a shame because it's a very useful concept to keep in mind

So let's do a crash course

What is amatonormativity?

A term coined by Elisabeth Brake in 2011 in her book Minimizing Marriage: Marriage, Morality, and the Law, used to explain the societal assumption that all people seek romantic relationships in the form of long term monogamous relationships. Easy, right? No

Nothing in life is so easy, especially not something like an idea taken as absolute truth by most people for as long as we can remember

Let's take it from the top

Amatonormativity intersects with cisnormativity, heteronormativity and patriarchal gender norms. What amatonormativity tells us is that EVERYONE wants and needs a committed heterosexual monogamous romantic relationship that usually ends in children. The American 50's ideal is a good example of that

The reason why the other terms I mentioned are not enough to talk about these issues is that they don't target specifically the nature of relationships under patriarchy. They are obviously talked about (especially in discussions about gender norms) but they are not the focus. There is also the problem that many don't recognize the insistence of love as a measure for one's humanity as a problem at all

We live in a world where love is considered to be the very proof of humanity. This is obviously a problem because there is no universally accepted definition of love outside amatonormativity, which claims that only romantic and familial love exist. There is no acknowledgement of alternative ways to love or of humanity existing apart from this concept

What is love? This is what I want to ask you, and I want everyone to think seriously about this question. Is it the idea of a soulmate, of finding your "other half"? Because then comes the 'why?'. Why should anyone find their 'other half'? Why can't people be whole on their own? Is there any weight to this idea at all?

But wait! Some will say! That's not all there is to love. Love is the affection and care you hold for other people. And that is a fair answer. But now I want to ask you, why should that be the measure for someone's humanity?

This conversation goes in circles. Philosophers have tried to find a way to define humanity since Ancient Greece and probably longer, and I'm not here to attempt to answer this question

But there is another question I can answer: why is it important? Why is amatonormativity and being aware of it important? Several reasons. Not only does it affect the lives of aspecs, polyamorous people, childfree and infertile people by making them feel less human for not participating in it's rituals, it also implicitly supports cisnormativity and heteronormativity

The model proposed by amatonormativity is ripe for exploitation, manipulation and abuse. It cuts off people's support networks by devaluing all other kinds of connections, it keeps people from leaving abusive relationships by eliminating all kinds of alternatives to happiness and fulfillment, it makes people enter relationships they don't want because it makes it seem like there is no other alternative, it blinds people to potential or ongoing abuse because it makes us believe that love can only be good and pure

Amatonormativity is often talked about in aspec and polyamorous spaces, but many others are unaware of its influence, and I think this is a mistake and another example of amatonormativity (blinding people to the flaws and alternatives to the ideal it proposes is another way amatonormativity works). And this is a shame, because the queer and feminist movements (along with all the other progressive movements) can't ever attain their goals without addressing amatonormativity
