SVT reactions on finding out their partner reading smut

Author’s note : it truly has been a while since I posted anything at all.. I honestly have been passively using tumblr. I hadn't been motivated much to write even though I have ideas in my head. I wish I can write more, but for now I'm just gonna focus on my life and post on rare occasions like this when I feel like it. This one is just a sudden thought because some ppl at work are making this book club but they’re sharing all these high literature books. Like no hate, it just requires more brain power for me to read, so I don’t read them as often and I gravitate more to those easy to read spicy romantasies if you catch my drift. But anyway, they don’t need to know what I read in my free time so I just pretend I didn’t see anything lol But yea, it got me thinking about how SVT members would react when they found out the kind of literary corn their partner is reading hihihihihi Obviously, this is just a work of fiction, in no way I know how they would actually react and I wrote this solely for entertainment purposes. Please enjoy and lemme know what you think!

Rating : not sure how to rate this. I guess, there are some innuendos, but nothing explicit.

S.Coups

He walks into the room, sees you quickly shut your book, and immediately gets suspicious. "What are you reading?" He reaches for it, but you hold it tight. Now he has to know. When he finally peeks at a passage, his whole face goes red. He stammers, "I—uh—I didn’t see anything!" and power walks out like he’s on a mission. Later that night, he awkwardly asks, "So… Can I borrow it when you’re done?”

He immediately notices the playful glint in your eyes and before you could say anything, he quickly added, “It’s nothing, I’m just curious!”

Jeonghan

This man is a menace, he’ll have a field day. He would say things so casually just to watch you implode and be like “Aha~ so that’s what you like~” Before you can react, he snatches the book and starts reading out loud in the most dramatic voice possible. "‘His hands traced down her—’ Oh? Interesting." If you try to take it back, he holds it above your head and laughs. Later, he leans in, whispers with that shit eating smirk of his, "I should start using your books as references, huh?" and leaves you completely speechless. And the worst (best) part? He’d bring it up at random times too, like when you're least expecting it. "Hey, which chapter was your favorite? Asking for research purposes." 💀

Joshua

Bro is blushing when he reads what you were reading. He doesn’t expect that kind of scene when he joins you in bed and then reads along with you out of boredom. "My goodness… Is this what you love to read?" You, unaware that he was reading behind your shoulders all along, quickly closed your book as blush crept all over your face. "I—uh—I didn’t mean to intrude!" He hugged you and encouraged you to keep reading as he pulled you closer. But later, as he was on his phone with one hand while the other wrapped around you, he suddenly muttered, "So… do you, um, read those often?" and instantly regrets asking. He’s too polite to tease, but his brain is racing trying to process it.

Jun

Your book was laying on the table unattended as you were busy with your phone. Jun slowly picks it up, reads a line, and gives you a knowing smirk. "Ah… so this is what you like?" He savors your embarrassment. "You should’ve just told me~" Then, for the rest of the day, he randomly brings it up— "Would you like me to act out a scene for you?" Like he would say it completely seriously with that innocent but dangerous glint in his eyes. He’d lean in, smirk, and be like, "You know… I’m pretty flexible. We could test it out, purely for science." And then just grin knowingly when you start blushing.

Hoshi

He gasps so loudly you think something is wrong. "BABY. WHAT IS THIS?!" He dramatically grabs his chest like he’s about to faint. But then he gets curious. "Wait… lemme see that." Next thing you know, he makes it a whole event. He’d flop down next to you, stretch dramatically, and be like, "Okay, hear me out—I could definitely do this." Then he’d actually start attempting the position in the middle of the room, while you’re just sitting there face palming at his antics, "Babe… please—" 

Wonwoo

Wonwoo would glance at your book, read a few lines, and then give you that poker face of his. Then, with the straightest face, he’d say, "Is the writing good, or do you just read it for the plot?" You stammer, and he smirks, "I should borrow it next. Expand my literary horizons." He won’t tease you outright, but you’ll catch him randomly quoting suggestive lines just to see your reaction. "Ah, so this is what you meant by 'intense character development'? 😏" 

Woozi

He catches a glimpse of your book and immediately looks away. Ears red. He pretends he didn’t see anything, but later, he can’t help but ask, "So, uh… that book. What is it about?" If you try to explain, he’ll awkwardly nod and mumble, "Yeah. Okay. Got it." But if you tease him, "Do you want to read it with me?" he will malfunction on the spot. "Wh—NO. I mean—why would I—" and then he’ll be avoiding eye contact for the rest of the week. Dude is traumatized lmao

DK

He sees the book, skims a sentence, and literally jumps back like he got electrocuted. "WAIT—IS THIS—?!?!" His face is pure shock. "BABE, I THOUGHT YOU WERE INNOCENT!" He covers his eyes like he just walked in on something scandalous. But later, when you’re reading again, he peeks over your shoulder and whispers, "…What’s happening now?" He’d stare at the page, tilt his head, then look at you like, "Wait… is that physically possible? Are human spines supposed to bend that way?" Then he’d probably try to reenact the pose just to prove his point, and now you’re sitting there watching your boyfriend nearly sprain his back because of a book. He’d pause, look at you with wide eyes, and say, "Okay but… HOW?! Like, WHERE are their legs at this point??" Then he’d proceed to read the entire passage out loud just to make it sound even more ridiculous, laughing so hard he can’t breathe, but then he keeps reading because "Now I need to know how it ends." 

Mingyu

He’d walk in, glance over your shoulder, and freeze. Then, after a solid three seconds of silence, he’d gasp so loud and grab his chest dramatically like he’s in a K-drama. "WAIT. HOLD ON. A REVERSE HAREM?? AM I NOT ENOUGH FOR YOU??"

He’d literally act heartbroken, pacing around the room, muttering things like:

"I give you all my love, all my attention, and THIS is how you repay me?!"

"So what, you want four more guys? Is this why you’ve been reading so much lately?"

"IS IT BECAUSE I CAN’T MULTIPLY?!" 

And if you try to explain, he’s not hearing it. He’s already on his phone googling “how to kagebunshin no jutsu” while fake-sniffling in the corner. Bro is dramatic AF, but then he’s also the type to proceed to borrow the book (for research purposes he said), and end up getting way too into it. He’d come back blushing and stuttering like, "Sooooo I read it… and uh… I have some thoughts?? 😳"

The8

He’d glance at the book, shrug, and say, "Cool, do you like it?" before going back to whatever he was doing. But if you explain the plot, he might actually get curious and ask more questions in a totally nonchalant way. And when you least expected he would be like, "Hmm, it actually sounds kinda interesting… Can I read it after you?" but completely unbothered, like he’s asking for a normal book. He'd probably even come back after reading the book like, "Honestly, the plot wasn’t bad. The world building was solid. 4,3 stars out of 5"

He would even be willing to have an open discussion about the book and dissect it if you wish to. BUT!! He'd still take his chance to tease you by randomly dropping spicy one-liners just to fluster you. "I see why you liked chapter 12. 😏" 

Seungkwan

The moment Seungkwan catches you reading a spicy book, he already knows something is up. You’re too focused, flipping pages way too fast, and your expressions keep shifting between wide eyes and bitten lips. His senses are tingling. So, of course, he just has to know.

"EXCUSE ME��WHAT ARE YOU READING?!" He snatches the book, skims a paragraph, and squeals. "OH MY— SWEETIE, THIS IS FILTHY!"

But then, it happens, the performance of his life aka reading it out loud dramatically while also reacting in real time.

“He traced his fingers down her—OH MY GOD, WHY IS IT STARTING LIKE THIS?!” 

"His breath was hot against her ear as he whispered—" he pauses to look at you, scandalized. Cue his signature BOMBASTIC side eyes. "WHAT KIND OF LITERATURE IS THIS?!"

"She gasped as she felt his— NOPE. NOPE. NOT IN MY HOUSE."

But it doesn’t stop there. Oh no—he’s acting out the dialogue like he’s in a full-blown historical drama.

One moment, he’s dramatically dropping his voice to play the male lead, "You don’t know how long I’ve wanted you, my love." 

Then, without missing a beat, he switches to a high-pitched, breathless tone to play the female lead. "B-but what if someone hears us?!" 

He keeps reading, while still adding his own commentaries.

"Excuse me, WHERE are their hands right now???"

"Are they in a library? A CHURCH?! Oh, these people are going straight to JAIL."

"How is she still standing after that? I would’ve collapsed three pages ago."

He gasps, clutches his chest, and falls to the floor like he’s been fatally wounded by the sheer audacity of the scene. Meanwhile, you are absolutely DONE. You’re trying to snatch the book away, but he’s holding it above his head like he’s holding the last piece of food at a buffet.

 "OH NO, I NEED TO KNOW HOW THIS ENDS."

And yes, he will never let you live this down. He will bring it up at the worst possible moment. "Hey guys, did I tell you about the time I caught y/n reading a BOOK OF SIN?"

Vernon

He walks in, glances at the book, and just goes, "Oh, cool." That’s it. No reaction. No judgment. Just vibes. Later, when you're talking about books, he casually asks, "So is that one of your favorites?" You choke on your drink, and he just nods, "Nice." The next time you’re reading, he randomly goes, "Oh, this one is a classic  slow burn enemies to lovers trope. Good tension." You looked at him in shock at the realization that your boyfriend had read the book before and he just looked back at you with his usual laid back expression. “What? Did I say anything weird?”

Dino

He stares at the book, then at you, then back at the book. "Oh. Um. Cool." But five minutes later, he suddenly blurts, "But WHY do you read that?!" He’s so confused, but he tries to act mature about it. However, if you tease him, "Do you want to read it with me?" he IMMEDIATELY runs away, only to come back literally a minute later. He’s a little hesitant, but curiosity wins. He’d be like, "Wait… is that what people are reading these days?" and next thing you know, he’s HOOKED.

End note : obviously, I got carried away with Seungkwan’s. 🤣

can i be close to you - COMPLETE!

4/4, 7.3K words

Elain and Lucien have been feeling out their tentative new relationship for a while, and Elain is getting antsy about the slow pace she's set for them. But maybe it's time to take things to the next level.

Chapter 4: Day Court. And finally, finally: they bang.

Thank you to @bibliophiliaxvignette and @itsybitsybluesy for betaing!

This chapter features:

Declarations of love

Day Court architecture

Daddy Helion just trying to help his boy get laid woo

First time!

Elain fully owning her sexual power

Read on AO3.

This is the longest chapter I've ever written, and the longest story I've ever written. (I am not meant for long stories.) I've loved this Elain and Lucien SO much, and I'm going to let them ride off into the sunset now.

Here is the titular song that I realized I've never actually included in any of these posts:

So much unnecessary detail about setting below the cut!

Writing description is really hard for me, so describing Day Court was a challenge. (Why can't I just keep them in a white room??)

I knew I wanted them to have their first time outdoors and in some sort of bower. I was originally going for something like the Bower of Bliss in Spenser's Faerie Queene, but I couldn't find a good picture or description of it. (Also, the Bower of Bliss? Actually not as blissful as it sounds.) This was as close as I got, and we can all agree that it's kinda creepy:

John Melhuish Strudwick, "Acrasia"

Then I tried for some kind of outdoor bed/drapey/viney/flowery thing, but only found terrible AI. Finally, Pinterest randomly served me up this, and I had my bower!

This is "Fancy's Bower" by Patrick Dougherty, who builds these incredible, huge sculptures from branches. This one is in Montreal.

(In the story, the bower's origin is loosely based on Stonehenge.)

The statue inside is similar to this:

by Anna and the Willow

(I had another one in mind, but when I went to source it, it seemed to be AI.)

#ALoveforCHerr: Sims In Bloom's Diego Vásquez for @perolesims

Full disclosure: I said I would send Diego Vásquez (he/him) hoping the next Herr heir does not fall for him! Make him fodder, mess with him, let it hurt a little bit! That's all I ask.

I'm not a sadist. If this sim finally finds true love I'll welcome it for him, but his history and his traits leave a little to be desired! He brings chaos as a lazy lovebug and animal enthusiast.

Diego's story after the cut (especially for anyone wondering to themselves 'Isn't he happily married to Rahul Chopra?')...

It all started when he was the randomly assigned mixologist at the wedding of Cassandra Goth to Gen 1 Sims In Bloom spare "Old Man River" Nesbitt. Diego spent the entire reception at the Calico Lounge wooing divorcee mother-of-the-bride Bella Goth and they moved in together shortly thereafter.

But then Brindleton Bay shelter worker Rahul Chopra's wife Rashidah died of heatstroke, and the grieving widower met Bella Goth's lazy live-in boyfriend.

He didn't even have the decency to break up with Bella before he eloped with Rahul and moved into his home with Rahul's three grieving teenagers. Bella dumped him and his belongings in the bay, and one of Rahul's twin daughters ran away from home with her boyfriend Marcus Flex!

Rahul spent the next few years trying to repair his relationships with his kids while Diego lazed about his home. But whatever, they were a side household, I just let them be. And the next thing I knew (literally last week), Diego had autonomously divorced Rahul and tried to kick the man out of his own home!

The Watcher (who had already given him an honourable mention in my least favourite sims post) said nope to that. Now he's languishing in 'currently not in world' while I debate what to do with him. He's getting up there in years and has made a bit of a stink of the time he's had so far, so when @perolesims invited us to send some sims over, I thought he could have at least one more potentially romantic adventure in a save where I don't have to deal with his shenanigans.

Best of luck, Diego!

He was born in Selvadorada, raised in San Myshuno, and lived off others in Brindleton Bay in adulthood. No children, and since he keeps ending his relationships on a whim, no other family. He's bisexual but probably down for anything. He also comes with a mountain of likes and dislikes that I didn't even pick. And for whatever reason he randomly wants a vampire family. Make of that what you will since he's not a vampire, because I really don't understand this man! 😂

dennis saying "we spend every waking minute together [with charlie and frank], it'll be good for us to keep our distance" as an excuse to not share a table with them during his monthly dinner with mac... as if he and mac aren't the ones who ACTUALLY see each other 24/7 since not only do they work together, but they also literally live together too. incredible.

“What a relief! I’d been searching everywhere…”

“As soon as I saw it in my luggage, I figured you might have panicked. Do you need it back now?”

“No, just keep it safe…I can fly over and get it in the weekend.”

“…ha, ha…mission accomplished.”

I’m still rotating whatever the fuck the Kikaider manga was but I think the one thing I DEEPLY appreciate about the anime now is that “damn they knew how to write female characters” because even if I should’ve expected it for 70s it’s so PAINFUL that all the lead girls had a crush on Jiro and not for any interesting reason, simply “they’re just girls”

Mitsuko still ends up becoming Jiros definitive love interest but there’s much more build up to it and no constant back and forth like the manga-seriously their relationship is SO MESSY there in comparison to the iffier parts of the anime-but also she isn’t defined by just being his girlfriend, she is still a actual character with her own growth and depth.

Then in 01 Rieko is not as developed but they actually do more with her “being a robot who thinks she’s human” because man in the manga the reveal is so anticlimactic, but in the anime even if you don’t feel for her it’s genuinely sad to watch her realization in real time, it’s also made eviler by the fact Gill IMPLANTED fake memories into her. (That wasn’t in the manga, she was just a nursemaid who didn’t know she was a robot) It mainly sucks she dies the same episode they revealed this but they also made her death actually sadder compared to the manga.

Then Mieko oh man in the manga she literally shows up in the second to last chapter for some fucking reason, so the anime instantly using her was already a plus but they took out any romantic shit and thank god. Her and Rieko are kinda fruity but in the manga they never get to interact cause Rieko dies before Mieko appears but having them feel connected to each other especially when their both feminine robots regardless if there was any actual gay intent was still interesting but also makes Miekos heel turn better cause she only becomes good in the manga due to uwu having feelings for Jiro but it being because Rieko dies and it effects her emotions is way more interesting.

Oh and I could also mention how mitsukos mom wasn’t a character at all in the manga or how even minor characters like Estuko got more or how EVEN the girl in Inazuman who was talking to Jiro wasn’t ORIGINALLY in that crossover but I think these 3 really highlighted the point that while there’s still some flaws they knew how to write women or maybe even had women writers on board and I salute to it.

looking at the clock like "ah it's 11:05pm. time to spend the next 2 hours carefully trying to make sure our brain doesn't flip its shit" because for some ungodly reason 11pm to 1am is still the time of night where we inexplicably feel like shit
