toshiro in your fanfic seems to like hugging/holding/cuddling kabru a lot. i forgot if he is like that in the manga but would you say he would be the more cuddlier of the two (especially with kabru)?

you're definitely right about toshiro being touch-starved in my fic sldkfj the short answer to your question is that yes, he's clingier than kabru in their relationship. i'll explain why i wrote him this way!

in canon, toshiro seems to dislike affectionate physical contact from other people. he appears to be uncomfortable with laios' touch though it's unclear if that's just influenced by his relationship with laios. in my memory, the only other person to consistently touch him is maizuru, who he ignores, since it's usually in the context of her grooming him as his servant. i would still categorize her touch as affectionate since she cares for him deeply and still dotes on him. we see falin touch him to rescue him from the nightmares, which sort of counts as affection since healing is a type of care, but he doesn't look particularly comfortable there either.

kabru touches people, including toshiro, much more casually than toshiro does. he shakes and squeezes laios' hand. he hugs rin. he grips mithrun's shoulders. etcetera. kabru is very comfortable using touch as a tool to foster intimacy in his relationships.

opposingly, we can glean from canon that toshiro hasn't experienced much physical affection in his life. he comes from a household where loving touch is rare. his father and hien don't hug him for comfort when he cries as a child. we rarely see maizuru hug him or touch him affectionately. multiple factors contribute to his physical distance from others including his culture's norms, his parents' general neglect, and his noble status. it'd be inappropriate for servants like maizuru or hien to frequently hug him even as a child, so if his father and mother weren't hugging him, no one really was.

i personally think that since toshiro hasn't experienced much touch, he doesn't know how much he craves it. although some people try to be physically affectionate with him, he's uncomfortable because his guard remains up. the situation with kabru is different because 1. they've already had sex, so the most embarrassing situation (or the reveal of his inner desires) is out of the way. it costs him little to take the next step after sex and ask kabru to cuddle 2. they're in a private setting.

at the beginning of the fic, toshiro chases physical closeness to kabru because it feels good and it's easier to ask for more when kabru initiates things. the intimacy kabru grants toshiro is something he isn't getting anywhere else in his life, so he takes as much of it as he can get. at least at first, toshiro is kind of latching onto the first guy that gives him affection without crossing his boundaries. he does like kabru as a person, ofc. i don't think he'd look so comfortable with kabru touching him so soon after getting to know him in canon if that wasn't the case. and in my fic, toshiro's feelings for kabru do eventually develop into something deeper. but overall, he's also just silly lol

kabru, on the other hand, enjoys physical affection, but he's not as starved for it as toshiro. historically, his main issue has been preventing his relationships from reaching beyond a certain level of emotional intimacy, so he highly values the fact that he and toshiro are openly and vocally in love with each other; that's what's rocking his world. their emotional intimacy is also important to toshiro, but he just has that added layer of trying to make up for 26 years of not being hugged alkjflfdkj

Watching Dan the TDM's first qsmp vod, he says his first thought of what to do was become a gameshow host (but decided against it because he's done that before) why were both of Maxo's boyfriends written in the stars for him and he still ends up with neither of them

[psyche-in-the-window]

@fuckyeahasexual one of the bigger sources of asexual info on this website, as just reblogged radfem ideologies that isn't even trying to hide itself as a radfem ideology. I hate to be making a call-out post (and if anyone else as made one, sorry!!) but they have disabled asks and DMs so this is the only thing I can do

For now, I'll choose to believe that they just didn't read the whole post, but this is pretty damning and I hope people will help in calling them out as a single blogger won't be able to to much

bian tianyang interview for FUNNY-FASHION

[supportive-editor]

Shibu, what made you realize you wanted to marry your wife?

Oh, a chance to talk about Yuu-chan! He loves questions like this...

"Well, stranger-- She just felt like the one, you know? Sure we haven't known each other for long like Tak and Rumi have-- But, if you love someone who loves you for you, and that person does the same...You gotta keep 'em, right? Shoot your shot, and never let them go."

[hwanghyunjinenthusiast]

for hard hours imagine sitting in between cheol’s legs with his hand rubbing your clit, the other hand around your neck, and his legs wrapped around yours to keep them open. sorry but the visual is INSANEEE to me and like him dirty talking in your ear with his deep voice 🧎🏻‍♀️

“thought you were more interested in playing your game, love.”

and it’s true—you were. then seungcheol, fresh out of the shower, took it upon himself to settle behind you, wrap an arm around your middle, and provide free, unsolicited commentary on your playthrough of breath of the wild.

then his hand under your tee, warm on your stomach (“when’s zelda showing up?” “she’s not in this area, loser.”). kisses, languid and more tongue than not, on your shoulder. his other hand finds your inner thigh, which would normally be fine, except it lingers a little high and you’re notably not wearing shorts.

no matter. you have things to do and none of them involve seungcheol at the moment. the controller is cool and grounding in your hands and you’re not easily distracted.

distraction is a cruel mistress, though, because two loading screens later, his thumb finds your clit through the silk of your underwear. he’s slow, gentle, just running it over the thin fabric.

“how’s takeout sound for dinner?” he asks, voice low. “sound good to you?”

“y-yeah.”

it’s your worst trait, but your stubbornness will not allow you to just put the controller down and let whatever is happening to just happen.

you buy some arrows, mind level as he strokes you over your underwear. never mind that you can feel his cock, half hard, pressed up against your back. you briefly think about the night before now, when you were gagging on it, your own hand down your shorts. but you digress—ignorance must be bliss.

“thai? greek? i can pick it up.” his voice has dropped an octave, and it’s such a little thing, but it still makes your tummy knot into itself. just a little more pressure on your sensitive cunt, and traitorously, your feel your thighs spread for him, just a little. “wouldn’t wanna distract you from your game.”

“you-you wouldn’t be.”

whatever he’s doing feels really fucking good, though. you’re scared to look down from the screen because you know you’ll see his forearm strong against your front, veiny hand between your legs, and it’ll all be over for you.

you kill some goblins. then he peels your panties, arousal-sticky, to the side, letting his skin kiss yours.

fuck, he swears under his breath, and you almost whimper out loud. two fingers slide between your pussy lips, and before you know it, he’s holding them in front of your face. they’re so, so glossy with your slick, and you let yourself go a little by taking them into your mouth. the tang hits your tongue and he groans behind you and you feel your mind fuzz up with desire all at once.

it’s dizzying but you are no quitter. not even when he bites your earlobe, murmuring something about how wet you are and how he wants to bend you over the couch and fuck you into tomorrow.

it’s a little harder when he’s fucking those fingers into you, trapping your legs behind his so you can’t avoid him any longer. your hands are losing grip of the controller and you’ve stopped trying to fight the rock of your hips into his hand.

“you were doing so good,” he laughs. “still focused?”

“y-yeah,” you breathe. “don’t know what you’re talking about.”

he grinds the heel of his palm into your clit, letting the pads of his fingers hook into your g-spot. “how about now?”

you shake your head, but you put the controller down. your eyes are watering with pleasure and you can’t really see the screen anyway.

teeth on your jaw. a hand on your neck. a rough thumb on your clit, and the cruel realization that he’s got you trapped in his arms and you like it.

“now?”

THOUGHTS & OPINIONS on mouthwashing ?

well first off AAAAAAHHHHH!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!!! AAAAAAAHHH!!!!!!!!!

[postmakerkiwi]

can't bring myself to repeat all this, so.

[welcometoteyvat]

archon: which nation’s known ‘ideal’ do you like the most: freedom, contracts, eternity, wisdom, justice, or war?

i already answered this but! eternity <3 putting aside the writing of inazuma's main arc, I like makoto and yoimiya's takes on eternity !!

[real answer over, random thoughts starting now lol] honestly though, i think the countries we've seen so far have all had like really solid development of their ideals and I like the "2 sides of the same coin" deal that the story has been pushing. favorites (besides eternity) include sumeru's wisdom/knowledge vs dreams, and correspondingly science vs the arts, and contracts from liyue. like the reversal where dreams are a place of knowledge and truth, while real life is absurd and doesn't make sense,,, that's pretty fire idk. I think the thing about knowledge and forgetting, like what is wisdom and what is truth? what about memories, what happens when people forget the past, forget what really happened? are there things more important than knowledge and truth? that's a banger theme to explore T_T I'm sure someone has said this before but also. your life's dream can also be interpreted as your ambitions right. so dreams = a source of knowledge -> ambitions -> vision = a "true" way of seeing the world, or the gods acknowledging your perspective of the world?????? is this anything

I also think contracts are fun bc there's a good parallel with "what is freedom when asked of you by a god". zhongli and venti interactions strike again. like what is a contract to live happily how you see fit? (aka yanfei's contract, with her parents) what is a contract to act according to one's own will, given to someone who has only known obedience? (zhongli and xiao, because I'm still a zx clown) you can also reasonably extend them to promises, and like wow that hurts. "come back to me when you're done with business there" "I will" and then the other person actually does not come back. what then. zhongli's way of structuring the world is so fun honestly. I like contracts also because they mesh with my brain well—it's so straightforward; you get one thing for another and conduct a formal equivalent exchange—with however many or however little emotions involved as you want! literally if this was how real life worked I would be set lol

What is this line across the model's buttocks?

It is the back of a small garment that the male model is wearing for privacy -- like a G-string, or an athletic support strap. (x)

I apologise to the Zelda people but I have many thoughts and feelings about Mr Jash and I must throw art about it into the world. Zelda will return shortly, if not by the end of the month when TotK is released. Until then, just look at my funky designs without context and hear my unfiltered screaming about lore and memes for a bit

7 Minutes of Chris and Y/N Being in Love ➵ Chris Sturniolo

You stumbled upon the video late one night, alone in your room with the glow of your phone casting soft shadows across the walls. It was titled “7 Minutes of Chris and Y/N Being in Love But Not Admitting It”, posted by one of the Sturniolo Triplets’ most dedicated fans. Curious, you clicked on it, not quite ready for the trip down memory lane.

The video started with a soft piano tune, and each moment was introduced by a little title. You held your breath as the first clip began.

1. “The Hoodie Thing”

The video opened with a scene from a casual vlog, probably from a random day where the four of you had just been hanging out. The camera was set up on the counter, capturing Chris as he talked animatedly about something or another. In the middle of his story, he looked over and spotted you wrapped up in his hoodie. You saw his mouth twitch in that familiar way as he tried to keep his composure, but his cheeks betrayed him, turning just a bit pink.

“Is that mine?” he asked, pretending to be annoyed, though the sparkle in his eyes told a different story.

You shrugged, smiling as you hugged the hoodie tighter. “You left it here. Finders, keepers.”

The fan had zoomed in on his face just then, catching the soft expression he wore as he looked at you, that look he always gave when he thought you weren’t watching.

2. “The Arm Thing”

The next clip was from one of their prank videos, where Nick had decided to try scaring you by hiding behind the door. The plan went off without a hitch; you’d jumped in fright, letting out a little squeal. The moment Chris heard it, he stepped in close, putting an arm around your shoulders, almost instinctively, like a protective reflex.

“Are you okay?” he asked, not even giving Nick the satisfaction of a laugh.

You laughed, brushing it off, but Chris kept his arm around you for the rest of the video. The fan had added a heart overlay on that moment, making it all the more obvious to anyone watching that this wasn’t just a casual gesture. It was his way of telling you, without words, that he’d always be there to protect you.

3. “The Way He Looks At Her”

This cutscene played moments from several videos stitched together: every time Chris’s gaze lingered on you a little longer than necessary, his eyes softening, or the way his face would light up whenever you walked into the room.

One clip was from a road trip vlog where Nick had asked you a question, and you’d gone off on a tangent, laughing at your own story. The fan had slowed down the footage as Chris watched you, his smile widening with every word you spoke. They’d even added text overlay: Look at the way he smiles at her.

And there it was—that undeniable, heart-melting look that said so much more than words ever could.

4. “The Hand Thing”

The screen faded to another clip, this time from a Q&A the triplets had done with you sitting behind Chris. He’d been laughing at something Matt said, his hand reaching back to rest on yours almost absentmindedly. You’d barely registered it, but the fans clearly had, picking up on the way his fingers subtly intertwined with yours.

At one point, you noticed and looked down, a slight blush coloring your cheeks. But Chris didn’t pull away; he just squeezed your hand gently, as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

The fan had zoomed in here, highlighting the way his thumb rubbed small circles on your hand, creating a moment that had clearly been noticed by everyone but you two.

5. “Little Things He Remembers”

This section showed clips where Chris would mention something small about you, things you didn’t even realize he’d picked up on. In one of the videos, you’d talked about a favorite candy that you hadn’t had in years, and a month later, in a different video, Chris had surprised you with it.

Your face had lit up, and the fan had looped Chris’s shy smile when he saw your reaction. Then came another clip from a Christmas gift exchange vlog, where he’d somehow known exactly what to get you—a rare vinyl record you’d been looking for forever.

As you hugged him in gratitude, the fan captioned it: he remembers the little things.

6. “The Almost Kiss”

This was the clip that made you catch your breath. It was from a few weeks back, a late night when you and Chris had been filming a random vlog in his room. He’d been teasing you about something, and you’d leaned in to swat his shoulder, both of you laughing.

But then there was that moment—a pause—where your faces were just inches apart, his gaze locked on yours, and everything had gone quiet. You could almost feel the unspoken words hanging in the air, the what if.

The fan had zoomed in, adding a soft overlay to heighten the tension, and you watched yourself look up at him, eyes wide, both of you caught in that heart-stopping second. His face had softened, and he’d opened his mouth as if he were about to say something, but then he’d pulled away, laughing to break the tension.

The screen faded to black as the fan added one final caption: maybe one day.

You stared at the end screen, your heart racing. You’d felt all those moments before, lingering on the edges of your friendship with Chris, but seeing them compiled like this left you breathless. Your mind raced back to that last clip, to the almost kiss. What would have happened if he hadn’t laughed it off? If you hadn’t pulled away?

Just as you were lost in thought, your phone buzzed with a text from Chris.

Chris: Yo, did you see this vid someone made of us? LMAO they really think we’re in love or something 😂

You felt a rush of nerves, unsure of how to respond.

You: Haha yeah, just saw it… it’s kinda cute though, don’t you think?

There was a pause, longer than usual, and you held your breath, waiting.

Chris: Yeah… kinda cute.

Chris: Listen, about that one clip… you know the one I’m talking about, right?

You: Yeah. I know.

Chris: What if I said I wasn’t just acting for the camera?

Your heart skipped a beat. You could almost picture him, staring down at his phone, wondering if he’d said too much. But something told you it was time to finally say the words that had been on the tip of your tongue for years.

You: Then I’d say… me neither.

It was a simple exchange, a confession years in the making, and yet somehow, that was all it took.

Everything We Know About The Phagenda

I needed a place to organise all the info we've gotten from DNP about what the hell they're cooking, so this is the place. I might have missed things, so please always check the original post for the most up to date version of contents as I might change or add things over time. Any questions, just shoot me an ask or something. Thank you and happy conjecturing!

I tried to arrange the info roughly chronologically in each category.

It's probably more than one thing

Dan mentioned some things coming "somewhat after and a little bit soon after"

Phil said, "We've got a few things in our mouth at the moment"

Definition of "agenda" suggests multiple things

Money stuff

Phil made his cactus club subscription more affordable in preparation for what he and Dan are doing next

Phil took a question about what they're cooking in his latest Q&A video. He said that something may or may not "happen in the next month", but did not answer the section asking if we should be saving up for it.

Those who RSVP'ed will "be notified first as soon as the news drops" -> presumably related to a limited quantity of items up for grabs, which is why I've included it in this section, but that's just my guess

Concept / Nature of the Thing(s)

Someone on Twitter said, "So the phlonde has been in the works for months if that was the main reason he let his hair grow out" and Dan replied with, "what else is he plotting"

Dan and Phil included a blurred out image of a text message in their video, which Dan called "the draft for something that is top secret".

SuperSeizer (one of Dan and Phil's editors) is in on what's happening (the other person in this interaction is their other editor Kris, who may also be involved, depending on how you read this interaction)

In his birthday livestream, Dan talked about how they revived the gaming channel not knowing what the response would be, and were shocked by the enthusiasm from their audience. "Because it seems like there's a thing here. [...] And we need to be like, celebrate the things, acknowledge the things. So, I guess we can say in the most vague way that we can that Dan and Phil have been cooking."

Dan posted his story with the words, "the time is nigh - want to know what dan and phil have been secretly cooking? / reply to this story with: RSVP / and we will send you a dm as soon as the truth is revealed"

Another definition of "agenda" is "the underlying intentions or motives of a particular person or group".

5 of the images in the TV screens have been identified as of right now: Phil's Video Blog, Hello Internet, Saying Goodbye Forever, Giving The People What They Want, and Something We Want to Tell You

Laylo, the website DNP are using for this announcement, is a platform that creators can use to release merch, tickets, or content.

The initial wave of people who RSVP'ed got their confirmation emails from news@mail.danandphiltour.com with the reply email being dh@danielhowell.com. It was then changed; now the emails come from news@laylo.danandphilshop.com with the reply email being danandphilshopweb@gmail.com.

Dan and Phil would have been aware that they were using the tour email at first, as they would have had to manually enter it themselves. (Thanks @dnpbeats for the investigative work!)

They included a 3-second teaser clip at the end of the Sims fashion makeover episode.
