The continuous bombardment and the ongoing genocide pose a significant threat to their well-being. What pains me even more is that due to the lack of medications in Gaza, my Mom, who is a type 2 Diabetis patiant and was scheduled for an urgent eye surgery, have had no access to insulin or any medical care for the past 3 months. Some of my family members sought refuge in the southernmost part of Gaza (Rafah) in tents. However, my parents, and sisters have no alternative place to stay, forced to remain in the Nusierat refugee camp, which is now the subject of continuous severe bombardment since christmas started.” Am on my knees requesting for your donations. Please help where possible.

I cannot express the sadness I have over literally everything I hear about Gaza. My grandmother is also type 2 diabetic who's required eye surgery; one of my closest friends is also insulin-dependent diabetic. As someone with a hodgepodge of medical issues, as well, I can only pray for peace and medical accessibility for your poor family. I'm far from the biggest blog you could have put this in the inbox of, but I will boost this as much as I can. This is genocide, and you deserve peace.

Please, reblog and donate, if you can! Here's the masterpost of ways to help.

Free Palestine. Free Gaza.

Alert: Someone informed me the account that sent me this ask was a scam. I was unaware to this point that anyone would even… dare? Running a scam off of Palestinian suffering? It is absolutely awful to be stealing stories from real survivors for cash. However, the link provided in this post is not a scam link; this is a real link of resources, so I thought it best the post stay up. So, please, still do what you can to free Palestine; even if this story was stolen, it is still someone’s story.

Here’s the real person’s gofundme, from @buttercuparry!

BSD Men and their Favourite Positions

A/N: OMG my first ever post on here ~ What better way to start off this blog than a little bit of smut with our favourite men? Cooked some of this up with a friend, I hope you enjoy! I ofc couldn’t fit every BSD character in here, depending if its what people want, I may do a part 2 dedicated to the Hunting Dogs, Mushitarō etc and maybe even a part 3 for various BSD women! So let me know if that’s something I should do next!

Warnings:, graphic descriptions of sex, mentions of kinks, 18+, minors dni

Reader is gender neutral with any genitalia !!

Including: Dazai, Atshushi, Kunikida, Ranpo, Fukuzawa, Chūya, Akutagawa, Tachihara, Francis Fitzgerald, Edgar Allen Poe, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Lovecraft, Fyodor, Nikolai, Sigma, Ango

𝐀𝐫𝐦𝐞𝐝 𝐃𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐀𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐲

Dazai

I am not entirely sure what this position is called, but picture this: You are laying on your back, Dazai using his strong hands lifts you up by the waist, your legs are over his shoulders and he pulls you into him with a rough thrust. I feel like Dazai is stronger than he looks, so he uses his strength to his advantage, and he most certainly is rough with it. Expect him to man-handle you a lot, he has to have complete control over you - expect to ache the next day, along with some very pretty bruises where his fingers dug in. I’m sure this position has a name but my friend called it the ‘cervix/g spot destroyer 9000’ so we will go with that.

Atsushi

Our sweet Atsushi… oh yeah you are bent over doggy style, gnawing at your neck and shoulders as he pounds into you. He would probably cry a little, but only because he feels so good. Unlike Dazai, its not necessarily about control, but instincts for him. Being with you, he would absolutely go feral and his tiger senses just go crazy. He will have nothing on his mind except the thought of him pinning you down with his weight, cock buried deep inside and his mouth biting anywhere he can sink his teeth into.

Kunikida

I am absolutely biased and I will take liberty in saying that he would be quite partial to pinning you down into a mating press. It makes him feel in control, and of course that being in his ideals, will absolutely follow it to a tee. Its a position where you are able to get the best grunts out of him, as someone who isn’t super vocal (more huffing and panting), having him balls deep in you like this is sure to make him let out some involuntary moans. Also…it doesn’t matter what gender you are, he is getting you pregnant fr. Have you ever seen a man so fuck drunk? WELL YOU ARE ABOUT TO; he can only stay in control for so long until his senses overwrite everything. Not exactly his ideal, is it?

Ranpo

2 words…pillow princess. If you have a dick or a strap, he enjoys being pressed down into the bed, hips up and back arched whilst being hit from the back. He comes across as someone who would enjoy being with someone who could ‘outwit him’, and if that is you, he would willingly relinquish the control he feels that he has over people …to you. I personally believe he is a switch, but his favourite position? Any position where you fuck his brains out completely. Bonus points if you reach around and jerk him off at the same time, you will turn him into a moaning and whining mess.

Fukuzawa

As someone who comes across as traditional, I feel like missionary would be his most preferred position. Its comfortable, can be as slow or as fast as he (and you) feels - but what he likes the most is being able to see your face, the way it looks as you take him in and when you cum. If he isn’t looking at your eyes as he thrusts, he is most certainly resting his face in the nook of your neck, kissing your sensitive skin - you don’t complain, as someone who probably isn’t so vocal during sex, this is the best position to hear his low moans and praises on his lips as he comes undone. It’s also a very versatile position because he can be slow and romantic, full of love and praise, or after a stressful day, he can harshly rut into you with rough fingers digging into your hips.

𝐏𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐌𝐚𝐟𝐢𝐚

Chūya

Never tell him that you’re a throat goat because he will go absolutely crazy. I mean CRAZY. He will have you laying on a table or a bed/couch if they are tall enough, your head hanging off the edge and your mouth open, taking him in completely. In this position he is able to fuck your throat mercilessly, noticing the bulge in your neck where his cock is buried; seeing it just inflates his ego and will jerk himself off using your throat for extra pressure/friction. If his hand isn’t around your neck, he will absolutely have one hand on your cock/cunt, playing with it for your own pleasure as he feels himself cumming down your throat.

Akutugawa

Also a missionary king, now it may seem ooc of him, but I feel like he would let his guard down with his significant other; like its a side only you get the privilege in seeing. Like he may have this tough exterior, but secretly he just wants to be held. So as much as he can be rough, he relishes in your warmth, your arms around him and pulling him into a hug; it makes him feel safe and secure. If your arms aren’t enveloping him, he will hold your hand, squeezing it as he enters you and when he cums. - Oh he definitely has a thing for holding your hand. Big meanie who is actually a softie!

Tachihara

The man relishes the thought and the feeling of having you sit on his face. You may feel like you are the one in control, but thats far from the truth. His grip is hard on your hips, pulling you further down onto his face, almost worryingly so; but don’t worry, the man knows what he’s doing. If he’s going to die by giving oral then that is a good way to die 🫡 Master tongue for real, like he prides himself. I BET he is the type of guy who gives his tongue a ‘work out’ just so he builds his durability for this very thing!! He won’t even think about cumming first without you cumming from his tongue; on second thought, he might even cum from eating you out alone, he just gets so in the moment…I better stop.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐆𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝

Francis Fitzgerald

Whew, okay this man wants you pinned against something, no matter the position; on his desk, against a wall, if its a hard surface, he wants you there. But in terms of favourite I would say against the wall, your legs wrapped around his waist, strong hands gripping and supporting your ass as he plunges deep and hard into you. It would definitely be an ego thing for him, being able to support you and also wreck your shit at the same time. Please do praise him, as his already mentioned ego will inflate and I just know he would fuck you better with each compliment. Expect a very bruised back and aching legs after, he doesn’t intend on taking it easy with you.

Edgar Allen Poe

As hopeless romantic like myself, I feel like he would want to be as close to you as possible with also being able to see your face. As strange as it may sound, but Poe enjoys having you in the lotus position - this way, he is able to feel your entire body grind into him so lovingly. The both of you would sit on his bed, your legs crossed around each other and his cock buried warmly inside of you, here he feels safe and content (you just know he is whimpering into your ear). Its also a good position for you to take more control, I just know ya man is a sub at heart, so do please tell him that he’s a good boy and how much you love his voice, because it will only egg him on to be louder.

Nathaniel Hawthorne

As a man of god, you will probably (definitely) be married to him to get anywhere near him sexually. But when you are married, rest assured that he will want to ravish you. He comes across as someone who has a lot of repressed sexual feelings, therefore he’d want a position that can demonstrate his absolute DESIRE. Because I am feeling generous, I would say either the mating press or cow girl. The mating press for…obvious reasons… his big strong body holding you down with a distinct goal in mind? Oh yes. I would also say the cowgirl, mainly because he would enjoy seeing you come undone on his cock, pulling you down either by your hips or your arms, balls bouncing against your ass…that man has seen god and its you.

Lovecraft

This is a tricky one, I don’t think he would necessarily have a favourite position for his own pleasure, but he would probably take gratification in your pleasure. YOU KNOW he would put those tentacles to good use if you ask him. With this in mind, I picture you asking him to “fill your holes”, which he does, and makes sure to do it where he has full view of the show. If you want his cock specifically, he will have several tentacles wrap themselves around your torso, one forcing your head down, the others keeping your thighs apart and hips up for him to enter you from behind - so in short I suppose his favourite position with you would be doggy !

𝐑𝐚𝐭𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐇𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐃𝐞𝐚𝐝

Fyodor

Thigh fucking, 100%. Something that doesn’t actually involve penetrative sex because of the whole,,,religion thing. Unless you were married, there will be no sex; aside from the loop holes. You are on your back, wearing the fanciest of underwear as Fyodor lifts up and presses your legs together, poking his hard cock through your soft flesh and thrusts. He will curse you out, call you a little temptress or seducer…when he cums it’ll never be inside, not that he hasn’t thought about it, he has. Each time you would do it he would get closer and closer to giving in. “You tempt me…” he’d whisper, there are very few people who could get him to question his faith, his morals…but you…you really are a little charmer, aren’t you?

Nikolai

I had a hard time deciding with Nikolai, but I honestly believe that he would be super into 69-ing. He would probably enjoy the fact that its the ‘sex’ number and make numerous jokes about it outside the bedroom. But INSIDE the bedroom is another matter. He would most likely prefer to be on top, it means that he has more power over you (and that you can’t escape him, not that you’d want to). He would be kind of sadistic too, pressing his cock further and further into your mouth, enjoying hearing the little gags and chokes as he essentially keeps you prisoner under his weight; he would never endanger you but…there is always an element of danger with him.

Sigma

Spooning, its something so intimate and personal to him, both fucking you and hugging you. He gives me the vibe that he just wants to be close to you, he’s clingy and a little possessive, so holding you in this position is heaven to him. You are laying on your side, one leg hooked over his arm, lifting it up so that he has the perfect angle to plunge deep into you. He is so loving when he does this, to him you might as well be made of glass. Expect a thousand kisses along your back and shoulder blades, a few little bites but not too rough, but enough to mark you. Sigma is also a whimperer and whiner, very vocal with it too (possibly even a crier if over-stimulated)

𝐄𝐱𝐭𝐫𝐚(𝐬)

Ango

Another very subby kinda guy, though definitely a switch in my mind, but I can elaborate in another post tee hee. I want to say his favourite is having you suck his cock. LIKE ofc he enjoys sex, but his favourite thing is seeing you servicing him on your knees, between his legs and swallowing every inch. He’s veryyyy sensitive on his tip, so even delicately kissing it before sucking him in will put him immediately on edge. He may try to establish dominance at first, but rest assured that will not last long. He will find it hard to compose himself, especially if you take every bit of him in your throat. His glasses will fog up, his face red and his fingers fumbling with your hair; awh look at him, you got him all flustered. Another man who whimpers, maybe even cry, but boy he sounds angelic whilst doing so.

A/N: ahhhh okay done!! I hope you enjoyed, I know I did. I fear that there are a few headcanons I’ve made and will have to elaborate on in the future. Like I am so going to dive into the Fyodor thigh fucking headcanon….lord have mercy I’m bout to bust. Alroighhtttt, till next time 🌸

-[chan; soft bf headcanon

P: Chan x gender neutral reader | G: fluff, headcanon | Inc: graphic designer!reader, getting together, friends to lovers, the rest of skz being (lovingly) fed up, date nights, late night walks | Wc: 503 | W: none iirc | R: G

My favourite single father of seven/j

Meeting Chan was almost fate, honestly

You’re a graphic designer and happen to love designing album covers

Stray Kids were finishing up an album and needed a graphic designer to help create the album covers

Lo and behold~

You and Chan meet!

Bonding during meeting after meeting while the creative process goes about working its magic

The bonding sessions turn into dropping by each other’s workspace

By which I mean you  visiting Chan’s studio pretty much every time you have a lunch break and bringing a snack with you

Which he greatly appreciates <3

Because he never leaves that room/j

The speed at which you two become best friends is impeccable

Very much a duo – especially the kind that are always seen hanging out together

The feelings start not too long after too

There is one problem though... you’re both oblivious

Painfully oblivious

Somehow you both can’t see that the other is head over heels, and it doesn’t take long for the rest of skz to start taking matters into their own hands

They love you, really, but the running around in circles is going to drive them a little mad

Just a little :D

They keep trying to bash hints over your heads

Which is ironic because the confession happens so quickly

Catches everyone off guard fr

The two of you are hanging out late and it gets blurted out

Cue quick discussion over what you want in a relationship and boom—

Y’all are a couple now! Everyone liked that

Chan being your boyfriend comes with seven other people because none of these men know what the meaning of the phrase personal space is

Baby I don’t make the rules here, this is just the truth

You take it in stride though, which Chan appreciates

Oh yeah, and this man is a hugger

A certified cuddler I’m telling you

I’m convinced he needs his arms around you for thirty minutes a day, every day, at least

Will have you sit in his lap while he works so he can get his daily y/n cuddles

Try to move and watch him whine I swear—

Do you not want his affection anymore??/j

Lmao but despite how busy the both of you are, date nights are wonderful

He plans dinner reservations on days you’re both free and refuses to listen to anyone asking him to work

Date nights are for the two of you and the two of you only <33

Walks hand-in-hand with you after dinner and you stop by a few stalls

If you happen to pass by an arcade, he’s gonna win you a plushie from the claw machine

Sure he spends a little too much on it, but it’s all good fun

Especially worth it to see your face when he does win a plushie

And sure, your friends are more than happy that you’re dating Chan

But they are a little jealous

Because who doesn’t want a relationship like yours

You lucky darling, you~

ARCANE SEASON 2 ACT 1 THOUGHTS!!! SPOILERS UNDER THE CUT IF U HAVEN'T WATCHED IT YET SCRAM ‼️‼️

my jaw was unhinged the entire time. how did they manage to make already great graphics EVEN GREATER????????? wasn't expecting the intro change but I was GAGGEDUH. vi in a white tank top was NOT on my season 2 bingo.

cried while watching all of them, gotta be fr. in the moments I wasn't I was either biting my lip or saying oh my god oh my god under my breath out of utter disbelief.

caitlyn is STUNNING. like I genuinely wanted to lick my screen when she was in the frame who said that. vi is an absolute darling, I wanna eat her up. sevika can GET THIS I repeat CAN GET THIS. jinx looks so out of herself my poor pookie but she eats it up every time she's on screen. all the others are divine and it's so refreshing to see them again after so long rewatching the first season until I practically memorized the scenes.

jayce being so worried over viktor kiiiiinda cured me tbh. scratched my jayvik bone so good. ambessa pulling the strings on absolutely EVERYTHING bad happening like I KNEW IT FROM THE START. she's so hot but she's such a bitch. hope she dies in the last act sorry not sorry.

I love the way caitlyn is so different from season one. she's bloodthirsty, ruthless, blinded by rage (I'll defend her with all I got) the way she was so ready to shoot a child was insane tho, and what she did to vi straight after? UNREAL. cait honey u and I gonna have a serious talk later. that kiss was WAY TOO SHORT I need an hour long makeout scene idc.

speaking of vi, HOLY SHIT. LIKE HOLY SHIT. I missed her puppy eyed ass. watching her on screen is so cool and it makes my heart ache because she seems so done with the idea of trying to rebuild her family. like she's EXHAUSTED and BROKEN. but she still keeps her heart sweet and compassionate, my poor baby. she can't change who she is, no matter what life throws at her. I need to see her happy again.

jinx also seems resigned to the idea of being everyone's bad guy. like yes, she did do a lot of terrible things— good thing she owns up to them. but she doesn't do anything to prove herself the right way. she's just succumbing to the fact that she is, in fact, a jinx and that no matter what she tries to fix or make right she can't. because it's just not in her nature (according to her). let's hope that bond she has with isha changes something in her...

oh also um THE WHOLE HEXCORE THING???? HUH???? THE ARCANE AND ALL THESE WEIRD THINGS GOING ON??? I was left buzzing from excitement. like what in the actual fuck is happening. viktor turning into some sort of spooky messiah IS INSANE. WAS NOT EXPECTING THAT. like yes girl heal those shimmer addicts u got powers now. it's giving jesus. I literally gasped in that scene.

the settings, the music, the graphics, the new and old characters, the montages UGH THE MONTAGES. I need the names of every single animator and creative designer so I can send each of them gifts. wtf people are so amazing and creative.

I really REALLY hope things only get better from here. I'm already devastated and Vi isn't a pit fighter yet. this is gonna be great, I know it.

[allieswithbenefits]

do you have any headcanons you want to share about disabled melliot characters? (I saw your ask on the confessions blog)

YES I DO ty for asking

okay most of these i'm not specifically attached to and i update them / change my mind a lot but here's what i've got right now:

VINCENT: he uses a wheelchair and forearm crutches! (they're just like me fr.) he has spikes on his wheelchair and dumb fucking stickers on their crutches (like yknow "graphic design is my passion" and "boypussy saves lives" [i have both those stickers so]). i think he has an ongoing project where they go to thrift stores searching for one of those canes with a sword inside even though they probs wouldn't make it very far walking around with a cane especially a heavy one. it's for the vibes >:) also vincent is allergic to cats and this does not stop him from loving cats (and i don't mean only from a distance)

MADDOX: they have chronic pain in their legs that started when they spent all that time in jail. they were kind of like "eh nbd it'll get better" but when it didn't maya convinced them to get a cane for bad pain days. it was plain dark brown wood but then maya and maddox went to town on it with glitter nail polish and now it's colorful and a good sensory to rub when they get overstimulated

AMBROSE: he has scoliosis. he is mad about it. i would be interested in seeing someone talk about ambrose in the beginning stages of a slowly progressing neuromuscular disease like limb-girdle md, i just don't think i'm the right guy to really take that as far as it could go (my doctor suspected i might have md for a while but turns out i do not)

MAYA: transgenderism. i'm just kidding i hc maya as having digestive issues, maybe a feeding tube? ptsd. i have more maya hcs but i can't remember right now

QUINCY: ocd for sure (hot take i know /j). i've seen some people (including you i think?) talk about quincy with bpd and i can see that yeah. also i think quincy has periods of fnd paralysis that get worse with stress and this obviously would never work this way at ardess but in my hc they fight really hard to get accommodations for that so he can keep good grades even though sometimes he can't get to class. also this is one of the reasons they dropped out of school after vincent died -- the paralysis was happening so often because of how traumatic everything was and vincent isn't there to take care of them anymore :(

i have more and i will def post them because it seems that some folks may be interested but that's what i've got for now! tysm for asking :3

[mythos321]

Most of my random thoughts while reading chapter 8 of Moon Rising!(with my thoughts as a whole on the novel at the end so far)

Chpater 8:

-“We’re eating together! You haven’t even finished your hairy smelly carcass thing!” I love Kinkajous passive aggressiveness-

-

Awwwwww, I love these two

-seriously I love Kinkajou so much she carries the novel fr(that is an exaggeration the book is genuinely very good)

-insert “she wants that cookie” meme here

-Anemone trying to pull the pampered pretty princess stuff is so funny lmao, she even tried the baby eyes on Clay lmao

-Clay mentally saying “Oh, dear” like he’s an aging grandmother is everything to me

-Genuinely what the fuck did Coconut and Marsh do to you Qibli-

-Oh….Clay no…you chose like, one of the three worst possible candidates for this

-…honestly why DID they choose Sora, she’s not like super nice just very shy, wouldn’t someone like Tamarin have done better for a clawmate

-“Does she like her better than me?”

Kinkajou I am 90% sure Moons in love with you-

-and then comes the whole Darkstalker reveal and all that-

Now for my overall thoughts so far!

I definitely like it a lot! I feel it really does set things up well and can be very hard to put down at times with how invested you get, and does a good job at establishing the new setting

an unpopular opinion of mine though is probably that I prefer the graphic novel? that’s mainly cause of some of the neat visuals it has though, and some things completely switch in how I feel on things(especially for characters)

as for the characters, I really like everyone so far, even if I hold slight disdain for some of them it’s mostly just me playing it up

Now my ranking of the(current Jade Winglet):

1:Kinkajou, how can anyone hate this girl, she is great in every scene she’s in and just a delight to see. Also honestly from what we see of her mind I think she’d actually be a very unique PoV for a book to see someone getting their mental ass kicked

2:Moonwatcher, she’s so good in her book and can be very fun. One nitpick I have is her randomly being super into scrolls at times? It seems a little derivative of a certain Dragonet of Destiny(seriously why ditch that name it is factually the coolest thing ever), I don’t really mind it much though, especially since she can still very unique on her own, and I feel her emotional vulnerability is shown really well. Weirdly enough, one of the things that makes her character for me was when she was excited to catch that goat, it’s simple, but I feel it does set her apart some more

3:Carnelian, I don’t have much reason lmao she’s just pretty funny and I feel like if she didn’t get iced early could’ve made for a fun character lol

4:Winter, honestly it MIGHT be from just how much I liked him in the graphic novels, but Winter still ranks in the middle for me. Sure he can be a jerk but you can already see his emotional vulnerability and his true self, the self that isn’t hindered by his parents abuse, really is. Also him lightening up near the end of Part One is nice, and I know(hope) he’ll go back to the top when I finish this book

5:Qibli, yeah no I just don’t like him that much lmao. He feels so fake all the time(mostly cause he canonically is), never truly being sincere and just wanting to do what he thinks will make people like him, and just has a tendency to make things worse. Do I feel bad for the kid? Of course I do, doesn’t mean I have to like him. I have seen through his characters disguise and I still don’t like him

6:Turtle, the only reason he’s this low is because of his lack of screen time, it’d be disingenuous to put him higher. I just KNOW he’s gonna shoot up the ranks when I start reading Escaping Peril though

7:Umber, he has very little screentime like Turtle, but unlike him he will literally stop appearing after this book until the upcoming book 16, also made a one off likely unserious comment about Clay, as such he is stuck here, forevermore

On an ending note, can’t wait to get around to reading the novel version of part 2!

I bet the plot will get really explosive from here

[venusvity]

this whole bella thing left me speechless wtf???!! she is positively a freak and i genuinely believe that she is mentally unwell cs who in their right mind would stalk and harass someone like that, and over *checks notes* ..fictional idol community too? bae go to therapy, find a hobby, or do both 😭😭

i'm actually here from the beginning, even before you entered the community with venus and EVERYTHING is monochrome in here (LITERALLY 😭😭); and to any other else lurking or (maybe) new, i can attest that myah FR fr helped build this community with her bare hands (if not build it herself dhsh). and not just with renaming it from koc to fic btw. she has always been at the forefront of making fic what it is today - much livelier and basically a cesspool of like-minded creatives 🥹🥹! it's not wrong for her to be proud of it and even IF she's arrogant abt it, i say good 4 her, #DESERVED. she definitely earned it! only an insecure shitbag would take offense to that lol

(on another note, your voice sounds soooo good and clear <333 just wanna say that. i normally don't listen to recordings bcs i get easily overwhelmed but yours is so relaxing and vvv easy to understand !)

yes, i believe she is extremely mentally ill and just not a good person who let jealousy consume her and ruin something supposedly enjoyed. a freak, a weirdo, and just a coward. she can’t even face what she did to the people she supposedly cares about and was sending anons in “defense” of, proving that this was all a weird, selfish, and odd self serving thing. for over a year!! that is so pathetic and she thought people would think what she was doing was noble? i hope whatever psych center she ends up going to has good meds because something is clearly off and it’s being projected onto me aka A Stranger who she was jealous of over *checks notes* fictional kpop idols….right….totally normal response… 💀

and thank you, nonnie! i’m very proud i built this community and im not afraid to do so! i never said i built it alone either! i would say a massive pillar in the community is uyai and they deserve their flowers as well. the attention we see in graphics and aesthetic is honesty all that’s to them raising the bar back in 2019/2020 when they first touched down in the fic tag. theres def been other influences, but wanted to shout my friend out, lol! i imagine there were others that helped shape it, but, yeah, no, i built this bitch and i’m very proud of it idk sucks to suck, bella sorry lmao.

and thank you for the compliment about my voice! y’all are being so kind ndksbsks i really appreciate all this kindness, genuinely. can’t wait to see the fic be a brighter and happier place 💗

a definitive guide to mastering the sex and the city aesthetic

PART 1!

─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ──

part one: disclaimer

sex and the city has to be one of the most absurd shows when it comes to realism, and i watched friends. four beautiful young women, single, with impeccable style and a seemingly endless amount of money parading around town all day as if they're unemployed. and yet, they are employed! all of them! i think that's the part that i find hardest to believe. nobody has enough time to do what they do, but, hey, that's the beauty of television. so, this is a disclaimer. while you can master the satc mindset and act, look, and feel (more or less) like carrie bradshaw, there's gonna be some disconnect.

─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ──

part two: style

now, i started watching satc pretty recently, but i know that what i heard most when bringing this show up for discussion was FASHION, FASHION, FASHION! this is definitely a huuuuuuge part of mastering the aesthetic, in my humble opinion. a key aspect of the carrie bradshaw effect is her incredible stylistic choices and her ability to pull them off (despite some obnoxious patterns). so, here's my two cents on how to feel like you're in the show--- through fashion!

.ᐟ

for one, they seem to wear a lot of tight fitting clothes. i don't see a lot of baggy jeans (or really jeans in general), or pants or even baggy tops. carrie, for example, wears a lot of tight-fitting tank tops, usually bra-less. they're usually paired with maxi skirts or shorts or something of the sort. what really struck me about their fashion choices was that they made sense. this might be an unpopular opinion, but i'll expand on it anyway. though the characters do explore with some strange clothing and pattern combinations, the types of clothes that they're wearing make sense for the activity they're doing. well, except for carrie wearing heels to walk around the busy streets of manhattan. but, for example, within the scenes that they're at the gym, doing pilates, running, or doing any other form of exercise, they're wearing that common 90's look that i saw a lot of in friends. this means tight tank tops and athletic shorts or sweats. pair that with a pair of old-school looking headphones (wired headphones, which are a staple of a lot of my outfits!), and you've got your workout outfit. to find clothes id probably go for a thrift or antique store (do they even sell clothes there?). as for more popular stores, i'd stay away from places like forever 21 and h&m unless you're looking for basics, because their clothes are gonna be stagnant in the TRENDY area. overall, just look at pinterest and curate a board that inspires your clothing taste. individuality is a huge part of the girls style. but, the main idea im trying to get across here is stay close to simple clothes, stay away from fleeting trends, and find pieces or patterns that call out to you!

if you really want to stay true to the show, look up common 90's trends. staple pieces i would recommend are:

dainty, classic rings

sustainable jewelry that doesn't turn your skin green. invest in your jewelry! (bracelets, simple necklaces, earrings)

basic clothing pieces without patterns (tank tops, graphic tee's, tube tops--- carrie is very fond of strapless shirts and dresses!)

dresses, simple and ones with patterns. stay away from fast fashion, invest in clothing that lasts!

maxi skirts!!!!!

shorts. shorts are good. jean shorts, athletic shorts, comfortable shorts, all of it! theres all sorts to fit whatever occasion.

buttons ups are perfect if you need a thin, fashionable jacket or an oversized shirt. they come in all sorts of stripes and patterns to fit your mood.

a few different pairs of sunglasses in different shapes

for charlotte lovers--- glasses with thick, black, circular rims. if you don't need prescription glasses, look into blue light glasses or glasses intended for fashion specifically. also pearl earrings!

heels, heels, heels! who cares what people are wearing now-a-days? I'm frankly tired of cute outfits paired with converse or air forces.

invest in a few "going out outfits". this means glittery dresses, short skirts, small, tight tops, and extravagant jewelry.

it's also important to remember that they look good in a lot of their outfits because they're VERY skinny. and very fit.

it's equally important to remember that they had a lot of money (somehow), and were spending it on expensive clothing from high-end stores. that's not to say that you cant replicate it under a tighter budget!

─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ──

part three: attitude

if i can get ONE idea across through this entire post, it's that attitude and mindset is the most important part of mastering any aesthetic. have you ever watched a show, and right after you feel like you're living in it? you act, move, talk, and think like the characters? yeah, that's because we mock what we see! so, see it! master that mindset! the best and easiest thing you can do to feel like you're a character in the show is to WATCH THE SHOW. take note of their actions and how they handle themselves. their mindsets, all of it. it's all key to acting and feeling like the characters you wanna be. if you wanna be like charlotte, focus on her. if you wanna be like carrie (maybe don't be exactly like carrie), watch how she handles herself. once again, i'll stress my love for pinterest. create BOARDS! create physical vision boards or collages or journals if you're more into working with your hands and having a physical product. cultivate the kind of person you want to be, there's about a million different images and thoughts that you can take for yourself out there.

─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ──

that's all for the first part, cause i feel like i've just talked about nothing for the entirety of this post.

General König Headcanons

Trigger Warnings: fluff, and angst, graphic depictions of violence, anxiety, bullying, fighting, obsessive tendencies,

♡ As much as I’d love to believe in the whole “Oh he’s just a big anxiety baby he can’t do anything by himself :(“ stuff, he is a grown man standing at probably between 6’4” and 6’6” (~193cm-198cm) tall

♡ BUT!!!! This does not mean I will not make him a soft man at some points here. And this will mostly be tame; no NSFW unless somebody asks for that. And a friendly reminder that these are just HCs I personally have, if you agree or not is up to you. This is all for fun c:

♡ He’s spent so long hating his height because of all the people that bullied him and those who only see him as a towering beast, but he’s slowly coming to terms with that

♡ Like the whole “Oh yeah, I’m a pretty big guy. There’s tons of random people as tall as me, and in history, even taller!” type beat you know?

♡ And I feel like this anxiety has caused him to be wary of new people, but not flat out afraid; he’s deeply aware he has to interact with people and does his best

♡ He also does not talk about his past, feeling a little embarrassed to do so in the first place; nobody’s going to have time for it!!

♡ Except for when he’s drunk; then he’s talking about some parts. The ones that aren’t too concerning, just the times he’s laughed about it now that he’s older

♡ Convinced he’s one of those people that uses words in German rather than their English counterparts in the middle of a sentence

♡ And then when someone stares at him like “Huh?” he apologizes and translates the words or sometimes full on phrases

♡ König is also pretty awkward as a result of his bullying, methinks

♡ Like he can interact with people all fine and stuff, but he can easily detect when someone’s not worth interacting with, so sometimes he’ll just walk away (bonus points if it’s in the middle of a conversation)

♡ I personally believe when he has anxiety attacks, he just isolates himself; nobody should see him this way, he doesn’t want to seem weak still

♡ Relationship wise…I’d like to think this is where his anxiety acts up the most

♡ König is definitely terrified of getting his heart broken, not wanting to have more pain inflicted on him

♡ And if his partner seems promising, I feel he’s very, very possessive and protective of them

♡ Defo the kinda guy to pull them close, glare at the person even thinking about coming near his partner, and kissing them.

♡ Also convinced he’d be obsessed with his partner

♡ König would do anything to keep someone’s attention on him, relishing more in praise than he would degradation

♡ Practically worships the ground they walk on, almost like his partner were some ethereal being that’s taken pity and pride in how much they love him

♡ He’s so normal

♡ König the kinda mf to, if his partner is shorter, lift them up and hold them close whenever he can

♡ He’s like a giant teddy bear, and adores to cuddle with his partner

♡ You know how muscles when at rest are super squishy? König’s secretly in love with how muscular he is

♡ Why? Because when he’s relaxed, it means he can get squeezed all over

♡ Bro likes his pecs getting squeezed, not even getting aroused from it or anything; he finds comfort when someone squishes his muscles and tells them how much they love him

♡ Now all that anxiety aside…König, being the grown man he is, is willing to fuck anybody up

♡ I mean…his character description describes König as someone who’s excelled in fighting hand-to-hand

♡ As much as he had wanted to be a sniper, even having the proficiency for it, he’s an amazing insertion specialist

♡ Bro has definitely killed somebody by slamming their spines on his formidable thighs, breaking noses and several other things with his knees and fists and elbows

♡ He gets a kick out of fighting; have you heard some of his voice lines?

♡ “They. Are. No. Match for me.” has got to be his hottest voice line (because he’s so fucking right—the man breaks down doors easily and can grapple and manhandle anyone)

♡ He relishes in the fight, becoming a much different person entirely than his anxiety allows

♡ And I personally would like to believe he actually likes hand-to-hand much more than he lets on

♡ König probably just sees his role as an insertion specialist as a way to not only release the pain he feels inside, but also as a method in which he can prove how menacing he can be

♡ Nobody should ever think about crossing him, lest they wanna end up going home in a body bag or a box; sometimes not even at all.

another toffee analysis by sage h silentfire

I've been sitting on this analysis for a while, and I was going to touch on it briefly in a project I'm working on, but a talk with my therapist allowed me to put it into words and in greater detail than before. So here it is:

Why exactly do I like Toffee so much? It's a genuine question. He's the target of many different questionable writing choices, barely focused on, and forgotten within seconds of his death. We know so little about him he's basically a generic doomsday villain. The fandom is worse to him: popular interpretations paint him as cruel, arrogant, spiteful, and even, surprisingly enough, stupid. The word "sociopath" gets thrown around a lot, which, ableist. He's emotionless. He has no empathy. He's unable to connect with people. While liking villains is somewhat acceptable nowadays, it's always with the expectation that you like them because they're evil, not for any deeper reason. And with Toffee, because he's so poorly written, that should be the reason you like him. Because he's evil, and that's awesome.

But that's not why I like Toffee.

See, I am autistic, and that's never going away. I get more stereotypically autistic by the year, as I grow and become more independent, and my newfound independence clashes with my family and the society I live in. I'm weird, I'm moderately smart, I'm quirky. But more critically, I have no close friends because I literally don't know how to make and maintain friendships. I feel painfully aware of the potential emotions of everyone around me, but I don't know how to act on that awareness and communicate effectively with people, leading me to assume the worst. I have had meltdowns in crowded spaces that went completely unnoticed because I was "too subtle". I even worry that I'll die without any of the stories I want to tell – without my story – being told, because no one wanted to learn it.

Sound familiar?

So yes, I like Toffee. Even think he's a halfway decent person morality-wise, not just a villain. He expresses emotions weirdly, but he does express emotions. He is staunchly not willing to sacrifice his plans for others, but he still takes time to be nice to other people regardless. He didn't kill Moon and Marco when he could have, even though they were trying to kill him. He is empathetic enough to manipulate people and smart enough to take control of any situation, and he does it while not expressing emotions in ways others would expect. He's so much like my dream self fr.

And he dies the unquestioned villain, never getting the chance to tell his side of the story. The only perspective that we do get is filtered through the lens of his murderers. 

"But Sage!" you might be saying. "What about Comet?!"

Well. I do count Comet's death as one of the questionable choices the writers made (it makes very little sense with Toffee's character, wouldn't he manipulate her into a better deal? It feels a little like the writers were like "Oh shoot, we haven't made Toffee evil enough to 'deserve' his graphic death, let's... uh, let's make him kill Moon's mother for no reason!"), but I can understand why Toffee did it, again through an autistic lens.

See, autistic people like me aren't taken seriously. Not about our areas of knowledge, not about our views and beliefs, and especially not about matters of our physical and mental health. We're treated like weird baby dolls that are expected not to have meltdowns or criticize their "superiors". Or we're embarrassments, time bombs just waiting to go off and mortify whoever we're with. Growing up, I was never able to be right, or even have a point. Oh, there were minor disagreements my guardians let me "win" and then would weaponize during the more serious arguments, but whenever we got into screaming matches, I was always the one in the wrong. We didn't even apologize or talk it out after arguments; it was always expected that I would realize I was wrong eventually and it was swept under the rug with all the other skeletons of long-dead arguments and left to simmer into resentment. 

But there was one surefire way to make a dent, one I discovered recently and that has actually saved my life.

In the summer of 2022, I was put on a new medication. Long story short, I did not sleep for two weeks. I was in shambles, and I needed my mother to raise hell from me, because she would not let me do it myself – my psychiatry goes through my guardians, and I didn't even have the psychiatrist's number at the time. But she wouldn't do anything. The psychiatrist thought things would level out eventually, and my mother thought what the psychiatrist thought, nevermind that I was actively getting worse and my sleeping pills were getting less effective by the day. I begged her to raise hell like I knew she could, and she sent a mild phone call gently suggesting that things still weren't ideal. I could feel myself slipping away as everyone who was ostensibly taking care of me sat and twiddled their thumbs.

So I got personal. I deliberately started a big blowout. I convinced her that things weren't going well, and this little game of chicken with my health wouldn't result in the perfect, uncritical, angelic autistic daughter she so desperately wanted. I got into a screaming match, I listed everything she had ever done wrong, and I told her to shut up and stop spewing weak justifications on how my pain wasn't her fault, actually. I hit her where it hurts. I hurt her back. I hurt her.

And it worked. Hurting her made her take me seriously and I was back on my old meds before sunset. I slept well that night. And I will never regret it. 

So maybe Toffee's plan to overthrow his colonizers with the death of Comet didn't end in monster victory. But if it weren't for the eleventh-hour dark magic, it would have. And Toffee's people were oppressed and the victims of genocide for ages. They were the small band of rebels fighting an evil colonizing empire. They were ideologically in the right. They kicked and clawed and bit until they found something to hurt, and then they didn't hesitate. Because no one took them seriously, and they still wouldn't have taken them seriously unless they did something damaging. Comet sure didn't; her chapter is a continually escalating series of microaggressions. Moon didn't; she doesn't seem to care about the conflict at all before Comet's death. Who else would take him seriously? Mina? The High Commission? Glossaryck?

So while I don't think he was totally in character in killing Comet, I do understand more than others why he might have done it. 

Because Toffee is like me, for better or for worse. And he could have been great for me and people like me. But he wasn't. He was assumed to be evil and left to die immediately. Because people like me are always the bad guys.

In short,

_____________________________________

Heavy footsteps echoed through empty, white hallway. Quick, hurried steps stopped as the man struggled to breathe, looking at huge metal door. Stomach content still burned his throat, he felt bile riding again, but forcefully pushed it down, swallowing hard. His reputation would be flushed down the drain if he dared to vomit here. Doing it near the scene of a crime wasn’t that big of a problem, he could easily explain it, but not here. Especially not when he was about to face his nemesis.

He put hand up, palm pressed against cold steel door. Without even knocking, he pushed it and took a step inside. Cold grey eyes looked up at him from darkness, shining slightly behind round glasses. Swallowing hard, he pushed his chest out. He was the one with sheriff’s title, not this wild thing hiding behind the desk, under long white coat, like a wolf in sheep’s skin. But even if he knew that, it took a lot of mental strength for him to just part his chapped lips. “We have another body. It’ll be here in two hours.” His voice unnecessarily loud made the thing frown. He waited for usual snarky remark about his incompetence, because he did fuck up catching the perp last time, but nothing came. The thing sighed, put its freakish looking, tattooed hands on the desk. Chair scraped painfully against cold concrete floor as the thing stood up. He felt shivers competing with cold sweat running down his back as the thing stretched a bit, cracking its joints and yawning.

“You have photos this time, right?” there it was, the tone he loathed. He always felt like a child talking with this freak of nature. Like he had to know that it would want to see photos of a crime scene. As if it couldn’t just go and work with its colleagues on the site.

“Yes, I mailed them to you” his voice got quieter as he noticed the thing moving towards him with unsettling smile, excited twinkle in its eyes. He remembered suddenly why exactly they didn’t want it to go into the field where dogs with cameras waited patiently for any crumb of sensation. And this deranged look on coroner’s face was exactly what they needed.

“Let me guess, you also called up Trafalgar, hm?”

He nodded, regretting deeply not sending any of newbies to deliver the news. The thing smiled even wider, two silver dots on either side of its mouth glinted in dim light and he shuddered again. Why did it have to come so close to him? He could almost hear all loose screws rattling around in its brain.

“Tell him to come here too. I’d love to catch up. We haven’t seen each other in years.”

He muttered something, he didn’t really remember what, anything to respond to it and he was already back in the hallway, speedwalking away from that damned place. Why? Why did it have to choose this particular town where he was sheriff? He didn’t notice his own legs working faster, his body feeling imminent disaster coming. As soon as he fell out through main entrance, cold January air hit him, millions of tiny needles stabbing his sweaty skin. Panting heavily, he wobbled down the path to his patrol car, but his stomach couldn’t handle all of the stress. He lost this battle too, muscles contracting violently to bend him down so he could vomit in the bushes with the force of thousand suns.

Trafalgar sighed, wanting nothing more than to just go back home. This wasn’t quit and easy job asshole of a sheriff promised, but once he got into the suit and actually saw the crime scene, he couldn’t refuse. He knew they had to act fast to not let clues get buried under fresh layer of snow. They didn’t really have a choice, it was either him or- Another heavy sigh escaped his lips. Warm, moist air clung on the inside of surgical mask.

“We’re done here!” he heard Penguin call somewhere behind him. With a grunt and audibly hearing his knees crack, he got up, plastic disposable suit rustling quietly. Last piece of material he could find in this damn snow laid safe in small string bag, packed away in much bigger, heavier evidence bag. If the snow was white, he wouldn’t have so much problems. Unfortunately, the ground was red all over.

He didn’t take the news good, Trafalgar really wanted to go back home with his husband. Instead, he marched down the hallway of partially closed hospital to meet his rival from college. His former best friend that introduced him to Bepo in the first place two years before disappearing from the face of this Earth. Now, after almost ten years after they graduated, he’d see human he once knew. Human that everyone referred to by ‘it’, never by name. At first it infuriated him. How dare they all reduce his best friend to an object? But they explained that no, god no, they weren’t treating it like an object.

“It’s a monster” they whispered, looking around as if mere mentioning it would spawn it into existence.

Law saw dim light seeping from under solid metal door and stopped. Something was not right. Body should be in there, already on the table, ready to be analyzed for any possible trace of perpetrator’s DNA. Lights should be turned on to full brightness.

As soon as he pushed the door, the confusion only grew. Body indeed laid on the table. Doctor indeed worked on it. But the singular source of light, lamp similar what you’d find in dentist office, was positioned to shine only on one spot where coroner worked, meticulously taking sample after sample. “Hey” he spoke up, ready for bubbly personality to take over, to feel breath being forced out of his lungs by impact when he’d inevitably would be crushed in a hug. But doctor only straightened back and looked at him. Due to mask covering lower half of the face, he couldn’t see if there was any smile at all. Because the eyes definitely weren’t smiling.

“Hi, Law. It’s good to see you.”

The voice, cold and emotionless, shook him to his core. Who was that? The name was the same, but stories and now mannerisms didn’t match what he remembered.

How much could one person change in ten years?

“Cut the bullshit. What happened for you to suddenly want to meet me?” Trafalgar let the burning question escape him finally. He pondered for so many years why there was no contact, why only the person right in front of him didn’t attend his wedding or even reach out to congratulate him? This wasn’t the same love-obsessed idiot who wanted to be his best mate whenever he decided to marry.

Unknown stepped away from the table, leaving body alone in circle of light, and pointed at the counter to the right. Law looked. Bunch of folded cloth laid along there along with box of gloves exactly in his size. He wanted to protest, demand answers. Yet he put on clean lab coat along with two pairs of nitril gloves and stepped to the table. Two top students of their year entered circle of light, this time on opposite sides of the table, feeling so unfamiliar yet right in that moment.

“Look here” quiet voice sounded like a gunshot in silent, cold room as long gloved finger pointed to the mess of guts on the table. Law did look and at first he remembered how snow looked at the scene of a crime – bloody patch against whiteness of the ground. Now red open stomach contrasted similarly to blueish white skin of the deceased. Stomach’s skin hanged on both sides of the body, torn to shreds right in the middle. It was miracle any of the guts were intact. But where finger pointed there was a hole in small intestine. Trafalgar bent down to see better. Hole looked as if it was cut. “Now, look here” other gloved hand moved source of light to shine on massacred face. Nose was broken in such a way it laid sideways under left eye. Or lack of left eye. Blood, already dry, was flaking off the skin, uncovering large, purple bruises. Upper lip, split in two, looked like that of a cat and showed lack of few teeth and few more broken. But once again, gloved finger pointed at the eye socket where eye should be, but now resided white and red mess. “Here” it moved to the neck, wound only a couple inches wide right under the chin. Injury created another way into the mouth from under the tongue, ripping it slightly from the base. “And here” light moved again, to the chest, where two ribs were clearly broken by unknown object being forced between them, ripping muscles.

Trafalgar saw a lot in those ten years, at first working as a surgeon, then as a coroner. But whenever he saw body torn to shreds like this one, people assumed it was a bear or mountain lion. This time it couldn’t possibly be the explanation. At first, he had his doubts about what officers were muttering between themselves about it being work of a human. Now, under this light with gloved finger of brilliant coroner pointing out injuries that couldn’t be inflicted by wildlife without completely destroying the body, he was convinced.

“It’s fifth body like this in a span of five years. Every year it shows up on the same date around this town, never in the same place twice” voice told him what he already knew in the same emotionless tone. It didn’t match what sheriff told him – this supposed monster didn’t enjoy the case in a way they all thought. “And I have an idea who and why.”

Law looked up at his once best friend, for the first time this close, and he froze. There was no light in those eyes, as if life got sucked straight out of them. There was something else that bothered him. Scar right above left eye went through an eyebrow in clean, straight line just to suddenly turn ninety degrees and as a jagged mess end in the middle of the forehead. Injury had to bleed a lot, hurt too.

When their eyes met again, he knew whatever information and speculations were cooking up in that brain would turn his world upside down.

“Who? Who could do something like this?” Trafalgar asked, feeling like he should just turn around, leave and never come back, forget he ever knew whoever this person turned into.

“Question should be – why did I point out those three specific injuries” coroner clicked tongue against teeth and sighed. “Think, Law, and look closer. What do you see here?”

Trafalgar gritted his teeth. What kind of game was it? “Can’t you just tell me? Do you have to turn this in some kind of gruesome charades?”

But the finger just pointed at the injuries. “Look closer. If I tell you what I know, you wouldn’t believe me. No one would.”

That’s why he was called here. All anger, disappointment, resentment, sadness. All of it evaporated, leaving behind only cold, empty realization – once this was over, he wouldn’t be the same man that walked into this hospital.

He leaned in again, inspecting wounds with ridiculous precision. In the meantime, other doctor continued working where the light pointed, not even uttering one word. Law looked into bloody, meaty mess. Body was already cold, muscles tightened long ago in rigor mortis and it’d be another two to three days for it to pass. But as Law looked at all the blood, torn skin and muscles, organs ripped out of the abdominal cavity that his crew had to gather directly from snowy ground, he still didn’t know what was he supposed to find out.

“Forceps” he instinctively said reaching across the table as if he was in his own autopsy room. Before he could add something however, instrument landed on his outstretched palm as if the supposed monster anticipated this demand. Law had to fight years of nostalgia building up, push memories down to focus. This wasn’t the time nor the place to be reminiscing about the past and all those years lost forever. He pulled the light towards abdominal cavity and put tip of forceps into small hole in the intestine. Something about that hole was weird. Sure, it was definitely cut out with a pair of scissors or something similar, but something else bothered him. Why did it look like the wound was stretched? “Do you have a flashlight or something?” he asked and once again, whatever he needed appeared quickly right in his hand. Armed with precise lighting, he leaned in even more. He stretched the hole a bit, trying to look how big of an object had to be to cause intestine to become so loose around the wound. It had to be more than two inches in diameter at least. As he moved intestine around a bit, he noticed something shiny covering it from the inside in one particular place. Just as he was about to ask about swab to take a sample, gloved hand appeared in front of his face with test tube already labeled. Squinting hard and turning his head to the side, he cursed at almost indecipherable writing. Only thing he knew for sure was first letter – S.

Brain connected the dots and before he could even realize it, his body moved with new source of light to look at the eye socket. White and red. Red was obviously blood.

“No” he muttered, shining light into the mouth through small opening where teeth were supposed to be. “God, no.” He moved one last time to take a closer look at the hole between ribs. More than two inches in diameter. Again. Circular. Again.

“Unfortunately, yes” the voice finally spoke up and Law just looked at whatever was left of his best friend. Doctor took off the mask, revealing another nasty scar going from right under right eye, through upper lip, making half of it permanent scar and ending in the middle of left side of the jaw. “And I have an idea who might be behind it.” Doctor lifted up head. Another scar. Injury would create another way into the mouth from under the tongue. Lab coat got unbuttoned with fingers too steady for this type of revelations. Left hand pushed coat to the side so the right hand could lift the shirt up.

Trafalgar saw many injuries throughout his career as medical practitioner, but he never saw ones with this context, because the scars matched perfectly with the body laid out on the table. Not only that, there were far more scar tissue than he anticipated after seeing what the face looked like.

His once best friend lowered their shirt, pointing to the tube. “It is exactly what you think it is. And he did that because I left him exactly five years ago.”

Second chapter:

[namor-shuri]

Did you see that recent post about your page? Antis are so funny 😭

I’m crying because after I posted that meme post yesterday, I was scrolling through the Nashuri tag and then saw it 🥴 I literally made a dumb meme joking about Antis saying we need to be locked up, and didn’t realize someone literally said that hours prior. It doesn’t get better than that rofl. What’s sending me was their initial outrage of Nashuri [which babe, have you been living under a rock?], then the assumption that I romantically ship Tenoch & Tish from a quick bio glance, THEN after all of the “horror” and “shock”, they proceed to not block me. You’re telling me you posted screenshots of you blocking my page to ultimately not…..block……me? Righhhhhhhttttttt *rubs temples*

- - - - - - - - o o O o o - - - - - - - -

I literally don’t owe anyone this BUT this is for the folks that are new to my blog/Nashuri fandom/etc:

#1. Hey 💜 This is BOTH a Nashuri [Namor x Shuri] blog AND Tenoch Huerta + Letitia Wright appreciation blog. What does that mean? It means my blog is about anything related to A. Tenoch Huerta + his life/roles etc B. Letitia Wright + her life/roles etc and C. Their adorable dynamic together. It’s a hodgepodge of random stuff. One big ice cream shop where you can pick your flavor of choice. So Nashuri shippers interact with me, Namor fans, Shuri fans , Letitia, Tenoch and so on. You get the idea. I love how open-ended my page is and that’s why I made it that way in the first place. Everyone is welcome here and can walk away with a little bit of something. For being such a miscellaneous page, I would say the only “agenda” I push is Nashuri [it’s in my name]. The rest of my content is up to your own personal interpretation/assumptions. What you think I’m pushing or trying to say is all your take and your take alone, beloved. It has nothing to do with me.

#2. I admit that my mouth has gotten me in a little bit of trouble over the years lol. I was literally that little kid that came back with a report card with straight A’s that had a teacher’s note on the side saying “Talks too much in class”. I think and say shit ALL. THE. TIME rofl Yes, I sprinkle in deep rants and knowledgeable takes on my blog but I made this page to be a menace. I’m only here to be entertained. A majority of my page are jokes and tomfoolery. The complete opposite of “be for real”. How can I be when I’m literally shipping a fictional fish stick and a fictional woman in a cat suit?? 🤣 I’ve spoken about it before but I’m also an artist [my professional work is 1000% unrelated to this page/content lol] so alot of my page is also random graphics and stuff like that too. I love making y’all and myself laugh and it’s been enjoyable af interacting with you, especially the Nashuri fandom. Y’all are straight up comedians and say the funniest shit, which then makes me want to say even more wild shit and then it becomes a snowball effect lol. Thankfully I can tell a majority of you who do follow/interact with me are grown so you’ve picked up by now that most of my blog is A BIT. But unfortunately there’s always going to be a sprinkle of people who are clearly young, new here or just folks that don’t get my sense of humor whatsoever. And whichever category you fall under it’s okay, but babes there are a lot of 18+ jokes/comments on my page so if you are someone that is underage and or gets easily offended, please do yourself a favor and stay clear. I mean that in the nicest way possible.

#3. I wrote this on a reblog to someone’s post recently but I have a large portion of blogs blocked on the tags that I follow on here. Life has been ✨𝒷𝓁𝒾𝓈𝓈𝒻𝓊𝓁✨ ever since and it only takes .2 seconds out of your day to do it. So when I don’t see people utilize the block button, I just know their not being fr and are clearly bored. If you don’t like my content, block/mute me. Simple as that. Because chances are, I’ve probably already blocked you by now. And to the people I haven’t, I either A. enjoy/interact with the content you make or B. don’t care for it but you usually stay out of my lane and I stay out of yours so we just coexist. It’s that black and white. You don’t have to like what someone posts but what isn’t cool is bothering/targeting someone on an app strictly because of that. What are you five? This feels like a lesson we learned in elementary school. It’s not rocket science and it’s never that serious. The world does not revolve around you nor adhere to things only you deem okay. It’s much bigger than that. Get a grip, go drink some water, eat something and make sure to touch some grass today while you’re at it.

Shout out to that page tho! I literally gained new followers after that, so…..thank you? 😅 What a time to be alive. But for real, ya’ll have been coming out of nowhere to support and it’s been super dope. I really appreciate all the love, especially for being such a new page. I’m looking forward to future shenanigans, continuing the fun and not taking shit too seriously per usual. Live your best life, folks. Don’t let anyone rain on your parade. Life is WAY too short for that.

Ps: To my new followers, check out the post pinned to my page here. It’s a great “intro” into the Nashuri fandom and or actors Tenoch Huerta / Letitia Wright. Some things might be a little old but it’s pretty useful for the most part. My old poll results post gives you a slight idea of me as well. See y’all around ✌🏾💗

[booplesnotts-art]

Different anon than the one who asks for the OCs. But I am so glad they did because I love them!!

Not to have any favourite...but the woman with the red/orange hair. She looks badass. Is she a killer? Because she shot me straight trough the heart.

Would love to see more of your ocs <3

Ahhh that’s Christine !! This makes me so happy I’m glad you like all of them 🖤🖤

I don’t have any super recent drawings of her unfortunately and cannot get to drawing her right away which is killing me but I do have some older art of her I haven’t posted anywhere so here you go !!

I’m glad you like her !! Feel free to ask me anything about her or any of the other characters on my little doodle sheet 🖤

I love talking about my characters to anyone who will listen to my insane nonsense ramblings so I am very open to expanding on things !!

A short and quick teeny tiny bit of background on her under the cut🖤⬇️⬇️

Her name is Christine Greyroot (which isn’t actually her real name but she’ll literally murder you if you call her by her real one) and also goes by Madam Greyroot for dramatic effect.

She’s my silly little manipulative, unhinged, narcissistic cursebreaker/magical creatures expert who works with my little magic council I made up and is just a little stupid sometimes. The magic council is sorta wrapped around her finger because she has dirt on almost everyone which means she can get away with whatever she wants. She is very much a shady person🖤

She’s a temporary teacher at my other character’s school (for reasons only known to her) and has a particular interest in dragons and causing chaos wherever she goes. She definitely shouldn’t be a teacher and allowed to teach period but she is actually pretty passionate about what she talks about and does take her job sorta seriously. But she does get just a little TOO into what she’s talking about every now and then, especially when she’s telling literal children about the time when she fought and killed a monster in the most graphic way possible.

She loves chaos, drama, flirting with people, and annoying/bullying her favourite tall goth woman who hates her🖤(they’re both mortal enemies). She’ll also absolutely flirt with and use you but my friend still claims her as his wife even though she’s not a very good person🫶🫶 (he really wanted me to be very clear here and write that she was HIS wife) Christine’s silly and fun but gets scary when she gets serious or just when you become one of her targets because she’s a petty bitch who will do anything and everything possible to make those who wronged her suffer.

All of her scars are from past commissions/jobs and such where she’s fought different creatures/monsters; she thinks they make her look cool and badass, someone else would strongly disagree and call her an idiot. Her left arm was bitten off by a dragon so she has a cybernetic one in place of it because I thought it just sounded cool lol.

She also has a motorcycle that she dotes on like it’s her baby (which is also what she calls it) and seems to care more for it than her own students but she’s still one of the most popular teachers there regardless and she thrives off of that popularity (because narcissist)

Her morals are very much grey and she’s hiding some very very dark secrets she intends to take to the grave no matter what but she’s also a riot who loves 80s rock music and punching things with her metal arm and I adore her and her wild self. Love a woman who could actually just kill me fr

[whenwillderekhalebehappy]

so i just started playing fallout 4 ,,, here are my preliminary opinions

- lame storyline, i don't want to be married heterosexual. idc abt this fuckass baby either.

- fr tho, it feels like the devs just chose the most generic backstory they could think of so they could get that part out of the way. it's not interesting or good. moreover, if that actually happened to a person, they'd be traumatized and terrified, not running around looking for guns and stimpaks. like, it feels like my character doesn't even give that much of a shit that this happened. like ooh the world ended, my wife was murdered, my infant child was kidnapped, it is 200 years in the future, but yeah no i don't have any questions, ill just roll with it. LAZY WRITING!

- also: how does the survivor know that his baby is still alive. the story has him frozen, unfrozen to witness murder and kidnapping, frozen again and then unfrozen to start the game. how am i supposed to know when that kidnapping happened? like yeah it could've been recent but it could also have been 100 years ago.

- upon exiting the vault you immediately start like 11 quests. why?? for what reason?? i just got here??

- do not love that feral ghouls will just lay on the ground waiting for you to get close enough so they can attack you. 1. its annoying, you get ambushed every time. 2. why would they be doing that, are they sleeping? waiting? doesnt make sense for them to be doing either of those things. they're feral, they wander around attacking whatever comes near them, they don't lie down and wait for prey, thats just ,,, not how they work?

- i especially dont like that the ghouls also dont show up as hostile on the little navigation bar until they get up. the whole point of that is so i know if there's hostiles in the area. if all the hostiles just sneak up on you, there's no reason to look at it.

- the fact that you can just max out your SPECIAL stats kinda defeats the purpose of those stats. the point is that it allows you to pick strengths and weaknesses for your character, instead of it being skills you can learn. it adds difficulty and personalization.

- i genuinely don't like the "improved" graphics. maybe its because my pc is shitty and i have to run low quality, but i cant see shit. especially all the harsh shadows make it really hard to gauge depth and to see things on the ground (like feral ghouls waiting to attack you).

- why is VATS under Q. thats dumb

- follow up: why are we now using the enter key and arrow keys in addition to wasd. let me keep my hand on the mouse instead of constantly having to switch (update: after 10 hours in-game i found out you can also press E, still stupid)

- why cant i just go up to people and ask them shit. why do i have to wait until they want to talk to me.

- i do like the whole settlement building thing. ive been having more fun with that than anything else tbh

- it is nice that you can make radaway and you dont have to rely on scavenging or bartering for it

- they are harsh on the raiders. like i get that they're enemies but labelling them 'raider scum' is a bit much. like thats still a person.

- in the intro thing they say war never changes at least 3 times. i get it. dont overdo it.

- also in the intro, they just say the US ended ww2 by dropping the bombs on hiroshima and nagasaki which is a VERY BOLD statement about history.

- i've barely encountered anyone who's nice. ive met preston and his friends but beyond that its basically been nothing but raiders. where are the friendly npc's? it makes the whole world feel hostile and empty

- the variety of weapons and mods is ,, actually a little too much. i don't know the difference between a pistol and a revolver, let alone what a receiver is. the game kind of expects you to just , understand what all these things mean and how to best modify your weapons. I don't. i barely know what i'm supposed to be looking at. "um yeah i definitely prefer the hardened enhanced glowsighted tempered auto pipe revolver pistol over the hardboiled standardized incendiary double barreled shotgun rifle" <- statement dreamed up by the utterly deranged

- recently encountered super mutants, why do they yell at you that they are super mutants. i know that. i mean, the character technically doesn't since no one's bothered to explain all the new creatures to him, but still.

anywho, ive only been playing for a week or so, so there might be more redeeming qualities later on. but so far im not very impressed

[robinsnest2111]

Here's the promised Def Leppard/Mötley Crüe concert experience post <3

Under a read more because I don't want to hit any of you with this giant wall of text, videos and photos without any way to skip past lol

I arrived at the venue with time to spare, saw many people in just black bandshirts (for comfort which I totally get. Not everyone's as extra as me who dresses up like he's Mick Mars' stunt double in the 80s lol)

I sadly had to throw away my umbrella. It wasn't allowed inside the pit. I get it, hazard and whatnot. The 4€ fee to have someone look after it and only a half hour window to get it back after the concert ended seemed not worth it for a cheap umbrella so buying a new one on monday it is.

I got myself a shirt as soon as I got in. The choices were not great, gotta admit. Mötley Crüe seem to be going for some japanese-esque Samurai-inspired graphic for their new era (felt like an Iron Maiden copy-ish thing to me, not my thing)

The rest of the black shirts were meh, either too plain or prominently featuring John 5. The only shirt with Mick on it was a pale pink and was 5 bucks more expensive than everything else. All shirts and tank tops, both for Mötley Crüe and Def Leppard, were 45 bucks each (rip my June budget fr), bandanas were 25 bucks, basecaps and limited edition signed prints 35 bucks, etc. The Mötley keychains were all sold out by the end of the night, else I would've gotten one of those. My Iron Maiden keychain from 2018 is looking a bit worn and I would've loved to have a new one but oh well. I can still try and DIY one myself. I wanna get more into bleach-painting and patch making and embroidery anyway so it'd be great practice!

I had a t-shirt and tank top by the end of the night lol

---

After the initial shirt purchase I still had ample time for a toilet break (and a sip of free sink water) after almost 2 hours of travel time and found a nice space in the crowd somewhere in the middle distance from where I could see most of the action on stage.

A local rock radio station did the pre-gig music entertainment. I also met 2 nice dudes who are in a band called Nathanael and play Victorian folk metal! They handed me their business card and I will definitely check them out as soon as I can, maybe even go to one of their gigs soon?

Between the rock radio station signing off and the start of the actual gigs they played some other songs to keep the crowd entertained, Fox On The Run by The Sweet among others! A personal mini highlight 🦊💕

Mötley Crüe was up first and they took their sweet time to actually get on stage.

There was a pretty long classical music piece playing before their proper intro sequence.

The official start was supposed to be around 6.30 pm but they got on stage at sometime around 7.30pm? My inner punctuality freak was not amused but it is what it is lol

I loved the song selection, knew almost all of them but had trouble singing along for reasons other than my Swiss cheese brain. Not sure if it was intentional or just very unluckily adjusted speakers but most of what I heard of the songs was the droning of the subwoofers. Most of Vince's vocals and a bit of Nikki's bass, John's guitar and Tommy's drums were drowned out by the reverb of the sound system and the overwhelming boom of the speakers. Kinda disappointing. It also rendered the audio of most of the videos I filmed during their set useless. But ah well.

As this was my first time seeing Mötley Crüe on stage I have no idea if it's a common thing for the sexy dancer ladies to have their own mics and sing some of Vince's parts? It didn't matter much due to the aforementioned "subwoofer drowning out most of the sound" issue lol

And how could I forget the tits cam zooming in on the crowd, at dear Tommy's request. I guess if you're famous enough you can simply ask to see your fans' tits and most of them happily oblige. I've never seen so many tits out in the wild/on the big screens, it was strange. But it firmly cemented just how wildly asexual I am. Although I am capable of appreciating some nice boobies from an aesthetic point of view no problem, they don't do anything for me beyond that haha

Strangely, the only song the audio was fine on was Home Sweet Home. I really wish I could've heard more of Vince's voice in the other songs like that :')

John 5's formal intro was an almost 2 minutes long guitar solo, not sure how to feel about that. Like yes, he's good, he has the skills, but. Eh.

(Loved the violin bow on guitar strings intro to Kickstart My Heart tho, that was kinda cool :P)

Nikki and Vince introducing their older more well known songs with "Wanna hear more of our old shit?" rubbed me the wrong way? On the other hand Nikki said the band loves Germany (he even waved the German flag on stage) and loves the crowd so, eh. I guess I'm a weenie and that's just how they are haha

Also got a little sad about them changing some of the lyrics to Smoking In The Boys Room (from "my buddies Sixx, Mick and Tom" to "my buddies Sixx, 5 and Tom") and the caricature and logo on the screens near the end of their set featuring John 5 instead of Mick. I wasn't quick enough to get a photo because the sadness of a new Mick-less Crüe era hit me full force in that moment. Can't help that my brain is hyperfixating on Mick Fucking Mars and that I missed him dearly all night long :'))))))

At least they didn't cut him out of any of the 80s footage video edits playing on the big screens during some songs. It would've been pretty asshole-ish if they did. Like completely erasing him from their band history.

On a lighter note: Vince introducing Nikki as his brother, who he has known for over 40 years, and their little in-sync swaying back and forth with the mic stand and bass respectively moment with them laughing and talking and exchanging smiles and grins was super cute :') <3

Also Tommy receiving a small bouquet of roses, smiling, and then proceeding to stuff them down the front of his pants lmao

And that was that for Mötley Crüe

A little break in-between, enough time for another trip to the loo and afterwards sip some more water from the sink like an animal (not gonna pay anything over 5€ for a puny little cup of water from the overpriced beverage stands, no sir)

Def Leppard were in another league compared to Mötley Crüe! Their sound was PERFECT. Very harmonic, powerful, you could hear everyone SO WELL!!! None of the pesky subwoofer problem the Crüe had, and they all looked like they had so much fun!!! I'm not as well-versed with Def Leppard's discography and all the band members (yet), but everyone looked great in their stage outfits! The lights and background videos were so nice too!!!

And they played the 2 songs I do know (Foolin' and Pour Some Sugar On Me)

but also a bunch of songs from the album they worked on during the worst of the pandemic years. Which also sounded very good!!! I'm actually considering buying that new album if I see it out in the wild for a decent price.

The background video montage for Photograph was so adorable with all the pictures from the band's history, from the late 70s to present day. They were all such adorable babies back then and seeing all the photos gave me the same warm fuzzies as looking at old band photos and candid shots online does <333

Very much a 180 to Mötley Crüe in every regard, Joe Elliott thanked us in German and English, and told us the band loves us <33

I might actually try to get more into Def Leppard now that I've seen how awesome they are on stage <33

The crowd for Def Leppard was a little older and less rowdy, a very welcome change. Still a bunch of almost blackout drunk people, sloshing their beer everywhere and bumping into everyone around them. One major thing I dislike about bigger concerts tbh.

---

I also got a bunch of compliments on my hair, make up, and outfit throughout the evening <3

Even got called Nikki (and Mick, after informing people of my style influence) a few times lol

A couple older folks said they admired my style and that you don't see many people like me anymore and that I should keep doing my thing because it's so cool to see :')<333

[Some comments bordered on some icky misogynistic topics tho, like "oh girls nowadays are too prissy and not as cool and rock-n-roll and bold and rough-and-tumble as they were in the 80s/like you", etc.

And yes, I let everyone think I'm a girl. Not worth it trying to correct tipsy and/or drunk off their asses metalheads in a loud crowded venue. I don't really pass on a masculine day; much less dressed to the nines, face slathered in theatrical 80s make up and hair backcombed and hairsprayed to hell and back.]

On my way to the train station I got to talking with some other tram passengers heading home after the concert, an older couple and two guys around my age. The couple had pretty cool battle vests, all covered in various pins and patches. One of my favourites was the Zappa For President patch on the lady's vest which made me think of @feeshies , really wish I'd asked for a photo :')

The guys my age roped me into going to a strip club with them instead of going straight home. They even covered the entry fee for me, so I didn't have to pay anything! They were very respectful and I was free to go whenever I pleased. It was interesting to see pole dancers/strippers up close in real life and not only on TV, but it's definitely not for me lol I'm too aroace and neurodivergent for this. The ladies had some badass pole skills tho! Effortlessly dancing in 10 inch platform stilettos and with barely anything covering their bodies? I could never! Kudos to the ladies!

Anyway, it was good I decided to head home around 1am, I could already feel the joint pain creeping up on me. it's full-blown throbbing and piercing agony, 7/10, now. I only got 3 hours of sleep before the aches woke me up the first time orz

But hey, 3 hours and a bit of dozing here and there are better than nothing. I spent Sunday taking it kinda easy, only did a few chores around the house, and went through all the photos and videos i took (111 files in total) of course! I weeded out all the blurry and shaky ones and the few good ones should be peppered throughout this post!

Hope y'all had a good Sunday and Monday <3

[i-do-not-fangirl-i-fanwoman]

Wow, y’all

I’m pretty sure I just unfollowed a CIA psyop with a leftist/progressive mask on

I mean just wow look at this screed

There is so much blatant misinformation in here it would take me DAYS and like a hundred links to show how nearly every single point in here has been debunked or is referencing a whole OTHER piece of corporate propaganda

—-

Oh and while I’m at it there’s a typo in one of these sentences let me fix it for you:

“The **USA’s** goals are regional (world) domination through trade and force.”

There you go 👍😎👍 have a nice day💕

#for real y’all be careful out there because there are some blogs out there wearing Progressive masks that are seriously sus

# we as Progressives don’t war-monger, knock it off

oh and in case anybody was wondering:

full disclosure the second graphic is several years old so the numbers are different so here’s this:

The USA is currently squatting in 85 countries

Eighty. Five.

China has bases in *drumroll* six

Six.

*saying with the same tone of voice you use when you ask your pet “Who’s A Good Dog”*

Who’s attempting global domination? Oh right it’s us!👍😁👍

Now I’m not trying to woobify ANYbody because I don’t think there’s a single country on the planet with completely clean fingers but if you want to see something interesting internet-search (I will not use the G-word they suck) the number of unhoused people in the USA and then search China’s Poverty Alleviation or here’s a link from a US American think tank:

Interesting

Now, I’m not one of those crazies that’s like “y’all need to learn Mandarin and start watching Wuxia full time fr yolo” because I lived through that kind of sh*t in the 80s when every. damn. body. was yelling about “Japan iS TakiNg OveR” and nothing happened.

But DO have some damn discernment when you’re taking in corporate media ffs

(whispers) but Wuxia IS pretty awesome you should check it out

and ps, why tf is everyone so quick to jump on debunking posts with Well You’re Obviously Being Paid by Villified Country so I’m not even gonna listen

but those same folks swallow corporate media whole without a single doubt

Who is paying for that piece on CNN or MSNBC that everybody else is reblogging willy-nilly that’s what * I * wanna know
