Hi Res how have you been doing ?✨️

Question about your a/b/o-verse!

I see the term "carrier" and "parent" be used a lot rather to more usual gendered terms like mother and father (I don't remember if Bruce or Alfred commonly refer to his parents as his mother and father).

Do pup still refer to the parent that carried them during pregnancy as mother/mom and to the other one as father/dad, despite their primary gender? I often see that in a/b/o, like the pregnant parent is referring to themselves as mom no matter if they are a man/woman/other and was wondering about that!

TBH I'm quite curious because I've never read man/woman a/b/o stuffs and I wonder if there was a female alpha with a male omega (him carrying the pups), would he be referred as mom, directly challenging the norms of our society... Anyway! Food for thoughts <3

Have a nice day,

-Jay

(ps: love the tiktok superbat account too haha)

Hi friend! I'm doing okay. Just trying to get through the week, you know?

My goal in writing this fic specifically was to avoid ever having to call Bruce "mom" just because he's an omega with pups. I really like the gender neutral "carrier" and even "sire" (though I wish there was a better word) since it allows for multiple genders and designations to mix and choose the term that best fits for them.

Since Martha and Thomas were both cisgender, I imagine Bruce might have called them mother and father if he wanted. But he would most definitely call them carrier/sire as a default.

One thing I have done differently which I'm still unsure about is having "carrier" not just as a biological term, but as a gender neutral parenting term in general. I.e., Bruce might not have carried Jason to term, but he is Jason's carrier? Jason doesn't call him mom or dad. But he (and if not him, then other people) refer to Bruce as Jason's carrier frequently.

I suppose it all comes down to personal preference. Since Bruce spent so long repressing his dynamic, I don't think he really relishes being called mom. But Lex clearly disagrees and occasionally uses gendered language, usually just to irk Bruce. He also calls himself "Uncle Lex" despite being omega.

It's all a very interesting hodgepodge of our gender norms, in-universe a/b/o tropes, and the a/b/o tropes I've chosen to subvert with my own interpretations.

And, of course, it all depends on how the in-universe trends are going, as we've discussed on here. Are newer generations more or less comfortable with older pack dynamics/instincts? Are they trying to move to a more nuclear family ("mom" and "dad") and away from same-designation couples? Same gender couples?

I'm curious what everyone else thinks.

18 & 25 :3

KITTY.

18 - if you keep them, share a deleted sentence or paragraph from a published fic

Fun! Okay. From Destabilize the Core (Atmospheric Interference #2), wherein chapter 4 underwent some reimaginings but I was sad to lose this silly little moment where their return to Kamino post-Anaxes was a little more fleshed out-

After a quick stop by the barracks to deposit Crosshair’s armor and rifle, offer exactly no help in Hunter’s regulations-navigating, and pause just long enough for Crosshair to groan at his hand-wringing and point at the corner of the wall between Wrecker’s bunk and Hunter’s and snap, “There, and there,” gesturing between two gear hooks, “just sling up a damn hammock.”

Hunter turns a slow look on him while Crosshair pays no attention, sliding his rifle case into its usual spot. “You want our new, long-term prisoner-of-war squad-mate to sleep in a hammock?”

“I think it’s adorable you don’t realize the rest of us will be fighting over the hammock but sure, yeah, the lumbar support, silly me.”

25 - besides writing, what are your other hobbies?

ooh hmm. Baking and gardening. Puzzles and painting, if by painting you mean paint-by-numbers. Playing rummikub. Watching formulaic HGTV shows. Yelling at my cats. Pretending I know how to play tennis. Oohing and Aahing at Christmas lights this time of year.

Think that about covers it. XD

71, 88, 90

71. least favorite pattern?

Gotta say I am not really a houndstooth enjoyer.

88. your greatest wish?

That [redacted] [redacted] [redacted] [redacted], or, failing that, world peace!

90. luckiest mistake?

When I was 18 I was so overconfident about where I wanted to go to college for music education that I literally only applied to one school. I ended up being stuck with going there and fell into a major, a career, friendships, and a marriage that I never would have had if I'd been sensible and thought to keep my options open before I bombed my audition for the school of music.

weird asks that say a lot

#8. Who's the early bird and who likes to sleep in longer?

As you might expect, for the Hawk and Thrush birdies.

Whenever Talanah can seize the opportunity to sleep in, she is absolutely the late riser. Aloy's chronically awake at dawn, I feel. At first she jokes about it with Talanah, poking a little impatient fun--"I thought the Carja were supposed to rise with the Sun or something." But eventually she grows to enjoy the quiet time, getting to lie in bed and watch Talanah snooze until the restlessness sets in and she has to get up and do something active.

thats awesome that you can hear music again! happy for you stranger

hey, thanks so much!! yeah, it's been a really lovely part of healing - music was such a big part of my life pre-injury, and it's wonderful to have it back again!!

[prismicnexus]

Ocean Blue and Cookie :D

For this lil' game.

Oop, thank you for the seashells. I actually am very attached to these things for reasons so many thanks - I have Tumblr seashells now :D

I'd be happy to bake cookies together too! Pray I don't ruin the batter or mess something up I don't bake much *flops* ❤️🥲

for the spotify ask meme: 37 + spirk, obviously!

hi Jessi!! thanks for the ask!!

my #37 is purple circles by Jades Goudreault :)

I wonder what would happen if I talked to the stars Maybe they would tell me get some rest

This song is pretty night-focused and melancholy (They say the night is scary, to me the night is calm // I wish that I was scared, then I might go home) so I'm thinking a pre-during-post AOS character study that tracks Jim's inability to sleep.

When he's younger, he can't sleep at home at all because of Frank. Then as a teenager post-Tarsus (because I'm firmly a Tarsus-in-AOS-truther) he can't sleep because of All That. Then he gets to the Academy, where's he's finally safe, but now he's not sleeping because he's too busy catching up to and then surpassing his peers who had more rigorous schooling growing up. Then after Nero he can't sleep because of survivor's guilt and thinking that if he had been better/faster/smarter he could have saved more people on Vulcan or the cadet corps who died there.

One night, wandering the ship or Academy campus after everyone else is asleep, he discovers that Spock can't sleep either, in the aftermath of Vulcan and discovering the role that he's supposed to play in the future. They start spending their nights together just so they're not alone, but then they discover that around each other is the only place they each feel safe enough to fall asleep.

...well I guess I know what I'm writing after Fake Married is done lmfao

send me a number and ship and I’ll give you a song and summary of a fic!

thanks Vee! you gave me a Floydsin snippet, I give you a Floydsin snippet!

He loudly sniffles, which his friends are kind enough to ignore, before meeting her eyes again. “You guys can’t cancel your trip. Who is going to bring me back a foam crown from the Statue of Liberty? Payback ignored my request last time he went home to Brooklyn.” The weak chuckle he forces out following his lame joke is quickly cut off. “Why don’t you want to stay with Bob? I thought you two got along?” Javy’s genuine and caring look as he turns from his place in the passenger seat almost makes him spill his guts. But he holds back, knowing that if his friend knew the real reason he doesn’t want to stay with Bob, not only would he cancel the trip where he’s going to propose to his girlfriend, but he’d also try to find a way to drop out of the Navy so he wouldn’t have to go to the training. So he evades. “We do get along. I just don’t want to bother him. He retired from the Navy, and now he’s going to have to deal with all of that crap again when it comes time for my physical therapy and all of that.” “Jake, that’s sweet of you, but when he heard that you needed a place and a helping hand while we’re gone, he volunteered his place. If he didn’t want to deal with “all of that,” he wouldn’t have offered.” Natasha’s matter-of-fact tone makes his heart stop. I didn’t know he offered. “I didn’t know he offered.”

for every 🌹 in my inbox i’ll post a random bit of a random WIP i’m currently writing

[hangmanbradshaw]

Your list has so many good ones!!’

But the ones i’m most interested in are mob boss heirs, political marriage (i’m a sucker for those) and sugar daddy hallmark 👀

THANKS. Too many ideas, not enough time.

Mob boss heirs, more can be found here but it's essentially romeo & juliet meets the mob meets arranged marriage. I'm debating continuing this idea or changing it to be that they weren't together beforehand, were just rivals that made a habit of intentionally irritating each other (kinda obsessively)

Political marriage is angst & a dream at the moment, more found here but I'm debating how to take it. Thought about a legit political marriage, thought about a spies situation too? Like deep undercover, marriage as part of the cover.

Sugar daddy hallmark is my tree farm baby <3 three chaps in and more to come, on AO3 but next chap is going to be take the hallmark small town boy and put him in the city, see what happens. It's very cliche but with a twist, funny but also heartfelt. Vibe is very much like smores and fireplaces and accidental falling in love

Hello Hello!!!

My ZR obsession is back in full force and I want to consume as much as I can about other's Five and Abel head cannons :)

For the ZR ask meme you just posted could you do 8, 18, and 22 please and thank you, you can choose which characters you share the info for xx

Haiiii I am so happy your ZR obsession is back in full force because same here <33 I am going to do my runner 5 my lovely Johanna because I can

8. Bad memories/experiences

ANGST ANGST ANGST! There is a few. Poor 5. I think canon is as a lot of bad experiences to be honest. :( I have forced a lot of issues on my poor 5.

She prefers cats so much as an adult is because she had a bad experience with a dog at Mullins. So she is cats all the way.

Sam tries to get her to he friends with Bonnie the dog and that’s about as far as he’s got with ‘make 5 friends with dog so I can get dog’ mission he has. 5 will sit with bonnie and pet bonnie, but does not like to spend more than a few hours with her.

5 had ended up having to put down her own zombie brother - Adam James Taylor. It was her second zombie kill. That was a pretty big bad experience.

18. Things they’ll never admit

Johanna will never admit that she did not want to be a runner, and that she bloody hates team sports. She’s been terrible at sports for ages. She would much rather sit quietly than put up with the noise and the heat. In primary school she used to hide at the back of the line on sports day so she didn’t have to compete. She used to skip sports day simply because she hated it. PE was her personal hell. She👏🏼does👏🏼not👏🏼like👏🏼sports👏🏼

She accepts running as a solo sports. It’s the one sport she enjoys, and she often aims to only do it on her own. This is the only acceptation to her ‘I hate sports’ rule. In her own eyes, she would have much rather stuck with her nursery job that she had as a teenager. She prefers gentle walks in the forest and yoga for sports.

In another time line - Anna becomes a paediatric doctor at Abel to help take the pressure off of Maxine.

22. People who’ve influenced them greatly

Sara Smith! The lovely lady herself.

Sara smith trained 5 in self defence, using weapons, generally being a badass, and not wanting to cry as soon as she leaves the house/her tent. 5 is like a duckling following Sara around. She’s imprinted on her.

Paula Cohen my beloved. Paula explained to 5 that bisexuality was a thing making 5 very shocked that the only options where not just gay or straight. Also they are minecraft besties.

Also Lobatse!! Lobatse was the one that said ‘I think you have autism’ and making 5 go ‘no I don’t what you on about.’ And then on second thought go ‘oh shit no she right.’ So thank goodness for Lobatse my beloved <3
