i think its time to go back to books where the mc/bsf/so is just batshit insane over protecting their loves ones

im talking taking the punishment instead of your lover, im talking pushing a bitch over a cliff/building/sky creature because they messed with your bestie, im talking beating the shit out of someone to get information about where your so is

i mean batshit insane, the only thing keeping them in check is the people they love and the second something happens to them... better hope theres a god who finds you worth saving

EB x SO? Uhhhh

[manicpixistonergirl]

can’t stop thinking about my frontal lobe developing & my ennui for everyday existence slowly but surely being replaced by a reverence for the beauty in the mundane

Now for the adorable rapper!

Here's Akira!

Akira is the God of Love (you know, because he’s so lovable). As the patron of mutual feelings, he is a very cheerful and enthusiastic god that always extends a caring hand to all those around him. His kindness and openness for others can be affectionate bordering on aggressive, which makes people tend to walk on eggshells around him.

His job is to ensure that humans eventually find a partner (or partners - poly) that they are content with spending the rest of their lives with. Each couple that comes together is by his design - he searches each human for characteristics and ideals that are similar (or different, as opposites tend to attract) to that of another human’s, then sets events into motion that will eventually lead to the two parties meeting and falling in love. If someone does not find a partner by the time it’s their turn to journey to the Spirit World, it’s most likely because Akira didn’t feel that they would be a good match for anyone - their actions and/or ideals were simply too abrasive for him to match them with someone.

Akira mainly represents the emotions that come with being in love, the similar feelings of safety and certainty that stems from being with someone that you truly care for. Though if a couple does decide to get frisky, he’s more than happy to extend the secrecy of his sleeve in order to shield their activities from the rest of the world. He also tries to give them privacy on his behalf.

What do you think of God Akira?

And hide in a safe space while you can, because Phelix is up next!

To keep the list going, who do you want to see as a god next?

🍑: What sort of traits does your OC look for in a Significant Other?

"Honestly? I don't look for significant others. I was just with others for awhile and suddenly realized....Oh. Shit. I think this might be significant. Then I immediately had a mental breakdown which is, obviously, the most romantic thing a person can do, right?"

OOC:

Malika did not want anyone to be significant to her. It'd cause too many problems. If she got too close to people, she'd start worrying about them. They'd be put at risk. She'd put herself at risk, too, just to protect them. They'd learn that not only was she a mess, she was a whole dumpster fire. She just wasn't comfortable with that kind of vulnerability.

But the traits that @dumb-hat and @kestrelvylbrand share that have pierced through her defenses are:

Adventurousness

Creativity

Mischievousness (particularly the criminal sort)

A remarkable capacity for overlooking all the ways she makes their lives more difficult

And the fact that they both have learned so much about her and accepted her for who she is instead of looking for ways to fix her.

Maybe that's too sappy.

In that case: Their being ridiculously sexy has been a real bonus too.

Thanks for the Ask!

Currently reading this which I’d strongly nod to if you haven’t already. It’s sparky, witty writing. Reminds me of Douglas Coupland. 

[johnzillaaaa]

I like "partner" though. It's not sexy but I like it. It implies we are a team. We're in this together. We have each other's backs. We're in cahoots.

I keep thinking abt this comment and giggling

[renegadesstuff]

When she said "we're going home" 🥹

-Um, I have a dinner date with your ex-wife, remember?-

-Yeah. I remember. I was just hoping you'd forget.- 🤭

-As much as fun as it would be to continue torturing you, I actually like you a little bit more now.- 🥺❤️

Not Missing the Piece

After having a casual conversation with an attractive coworker, I pondered the puzzle of having such amazing friends but my apparent inability to have someone special in my life. Being a bit older I quickly brushed past the comedy that is having sex, and thought about all the other parts of what it means to share a life with someone. What’s the morning routine? Who gets the bathroom first? Who…

[megalopolousity]

It's so freeing to be able to pee with the door open. This is why people live with their SO I think

would you bite the hand that feeds you?
