When people talk about the Dad Bod™ do they actually mean Dudley Moore in 1981's An Audience With... Dudley Moore?? Because ooooffffffff, there's something about that burgundy jumper and far too long hair that should come with its own government health warning.

Tumblr media
So the other day I made a faux pas when I posted a hot tennis girl and accidentally identified her as the photographer who had taken the photo, not as the model. Well, that led to a rather deep discovery journey of the amazing photography of Ana Dias. Turns out, even other tennis girls I've posted in the past were shot by Ana—who it seems has a thing for tennis girls as well. She also has a thing for snorkel gear, transparent colourful visors, and inflatable beach toys, among other things. She is an incredible photographer, and honestly someone who I feel rather guilty using her photographs for posters because they're perfect photographs. Often I make posters because I find the backgrounds ill-considered and in need of improvement. This is not the case with ANY photo taken by Ana Dias. They're just perfect. Check out her site and see for yourself! Incredible stuff. The issues is that Ana also tends to photograph ridiculously hot girls, and so beautifully that I just can't help myself and really really need to make posters of them. I went thru and saved waaayyy to many pics, so prepare yourself for that bc katrotica is gonna have a lot of Ana Dias in the future. Today it is Priscilla Huggins who is exquisite. That's just facts. Unf.

Fourteen Days of MHA: Day 3
Light Fades to Rain
Okay, let's gush. Here are my feelings about the anime adaptation of chapters 360-362: season 7 episode 11. This will quickly devolve from eloquent discussion to raging madness I promise.
The opening five minutes are the weakest part of the episode. This is the only section I will lodge any complaints about, and honestly they're not that serious.
The sadomasochism got toned down :P
I kind of expected it, and honestly I get why. Even though it was scaled back, the scene was effective enough for most viewers because there's just something about seeing it animated that makes it feel visceral anyways. The detail was always going to be reduced in the art when adapted to animation, and a lot of that art could've looked really bad without the necessary detail.
But it wouldn't be on brand for me if I didn't mention that it bummed me out lol.
The only other thing I can complain about isn't even an issue with the episode, it's an error in the subtitles.
Tumblr media
"...you're just goldfish poop next to All For One."
a) It should be "One For All," not "All For One."
b) I don't think they should have kept it as "goldfish poop." Sorry to any language purists out there, but the idiomatic meaning of this phrase in Japanese will not get picked up by an English-speaking audience--and that idiom is important. It has an impact on how Katsuki behaves going forward. I think the subtitles should have changed that to something like "a minnow in One For All's wake" or "a tag-along weakling," ANYTHING to get the point across that Tomura is trying to inflict psychological damage by telling Katsuki he'll never amount to anything on the level of One For All. That message informs the rest of the episode!
Now, if that's the only complaint I have about this whole episode--a slightly too-fast-paced-under-detailed opening scene and a bad subtitle--then I'm a happy camper. And indeed that is the only complaint I have.
This episode is a masterpiece of adaptation.
The focus on the Big Three is so good because it does such a good job of masking where the episode is going but it's perfectly in-theme because of the parallels the three of them have with Izuku and Katsuki. IT JUST WORKS MAN. I LOVE IT.
The music that plays when Katsuki mutters is an excellent choice, though I wish they could have done something to hammer the point home more that he was indeed muttering and analyzing like Izuku does. Maybe the little "mutter" text would've been dissonant in tone lol but still I wish there was a way they could've done it. I do think the point does come across in the end still, but it's just more impactful when you get to see the little "mutter" text come full circle. Yeah yeah, manga vs anime and all that.
I didn't expect the tone they went with for Jeanist's reaction to Katsuki's muttering, but it was just different not like bad or anything. I kinda liked the whole "what the fuuuuck" vibe of it. I was thinking more like "Holy shit, I'm a proud dad" tone but this works XD
Jeanist is such a dad.
HE SPARKLE. KATSUKI, HE SPARKLE. IT SO PRETTY. AT LAST.
The animators were SOOOO trying to hide the twist this episode from the anime-only viewers, they didn't even put Katsuki on the commercial bumpers, they didn't want to SPOIL THE SURPRISE. IT'S SO GOOD.
Lost it at Tenko's freak out (damn voice actor wow) and Mirio's "g-gomen." I need the dub of this scene so bad.
JEANIST MY FIRST LOVE, DAD-ING SO HARD ALL OVER THIS EPISODE LOOK AT HIM GO.
Nejire is adorable as hell and everyone in MHA is so easily read as autistic it's remarkable actually.
They really put the typography behind the plasma cannon they actually did that.
UNF THAT PIANO. THE PIANO GOES OFF ALL OVER THE PLACE THIS EPISODE, DAMN.
Also good job on making the plasma cannon blast look small and precise to contrast Katsuki's attack last episode, because Katsuki definitely has more firepower but Tamaki has the finesse to concentrate the attack for a sustained period.
BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS
Everything from BOOTS on is perfection I know you all already know that.
Jeanist's voice acting is underappreciated, I really loved him this episode.
The little special sound effect for his clusters now!!! IT MAKES ME SO EXCITED. I CAN'T WAIT TO SUPERIMPOSE IT OVER KATAMARI DAMACY NEXT SEASON
Present Mic with the La Brava's-Love-quirk soft narration omg [chef's kiss]
OKAMOTO. OKAMOTO OH MY GOD. YOU GIVING ME FEELINGS WITH YOUR VOICE CRACKS I CAN'T SLEEP
The slo-mo shots are so pretty ;_;
THEY GAVE US MORE KUDOU TOO AND IT WAS SO GOOD, THE CONNECTION WAS DRAWN SO WELL BETWEEN HIM AND KATSUKI I AM LOVING IT SO MUCH. IT ALSO HELPS THE ENGLISH-SPEAKING AUDIENCE UNDERSTAND THIS IS DEFINITELY THE AFO-DOMINANT PERSONALITY NOT TOMURA.
Even if this series ends without explaining it, I'm going to come up with my own explanation for that vestige world shit. That cannot just be symbolic afterlife bullcrap. IT MEANS SOMETHING.
He's just a boy ;_; He's just a baby boyyyyyy
GIVE HIM HIS AUTOGRAPH BY THE END OF THIS SERIES SO HELP ME--
he spin thru the air like a meme
It's time for Horikoshi's favorite character: Bakucorpse!
You wanted the blue sky gone, but at what cost?
YES I'M LOVING THE VIBE FROM THE THUNDER SOUND
Oh...oh it hurts a lot to see in color, oh he's so pale...ohhhh no
THAT ENDING SONG? NOW? HOW DARE.
That horrifying feeling of emptiness at the end :)
The joy of watching others cry over this 👀
Katsuki is the actual symbol of hope I don't care what anyone says. All hope of victory is lost with his death and the only chance of winning comes from reviving him with the literal power of hopes and prayers and wishes. He is Hope Incarnate. A very Sassy (Soft Precious) Hope Incarnate.

THE HOT MEDIEVAL & FANTASY MEN MELEE
FIRST ROUND: 27th Tilt
Cesare Borgia, The Borgias (2011-2013) VS. Prince Hamlet, Hamlet (1948)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Propaganda
Cesare Borgia, The Borgias (2011-2013) Portrayed by: Francois Arnaud Defeated Opponents: - Ancelyn ap Gwalchmai [Marcus Gilbert], Doctor Who: “Battlefield” (1989)
“How do I even begin to explain Cesare Borgia? - Cesare Borgia is flawless. - He has one duchy and two cardinalates. - I hear his hair is insured for 10,000 ducates. - I hear he does Church speeches… in Spain. - His favorite painter is Pinturicchio - One time, he met Caterina Sforza in Forlì. And she told him he was pretty. - One time, he threatened to kill me… it was awesome! This man.... this man, this man. He is the complete package: a perfect case of competent kink, a ruthless bastard (ie sexy) AND he's so irredeemably fucked up you also get the "I could fix him" complex. This is the man who could had it all and yet he wasn't enough (again, sexy).
Prince Hamlet, Hamlet (1948) Portrayed by: Laurence Olivier Defeated Opponents: - Björn Ironside [Alexander Ludwig], Vikings (2013)
“1) That slutty thing he does with his leg in the character-intro shot. I see those calf muscles in those customary suits of solemn black. Unf. 2) The EYES. Haunted. Enormous. Intense. 3) The way his hand hovers millimeters above Jean Simmons' hair in the "Get thee to a nunnery!" scene. Not over it, never over it. 4) Vulnerability is hot, especially when it's transgressive/unexpected, and this Hamlet has that in spades. 5) "Lady, may I lie in your lap?" The sincerity of desire under the veneer of everything else just undoes me.”
Additional Propaganda Under the Cut
Additional Propaganda
For Cesare Borgia:
(Excerpted from above propaganda) "He's serving cunt at ALL times. In Cardinal clothes? Serving cunt. In "civil" clothes? Serving cunt. In armor? Serving cunt. He had one of the most competent thinkers and do I say philosopher of his time (Machiavelli) *fawning* over him. Was he a tyrant? Possibly, but it's one we LOVE. The man [Machiavelli] literally BASED A BOOK on him.... (Cont. under the cut)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"He has a personal assassin of ...unmatched abilities and YET he's even better than the man himself!!! He tries to kill his own would be killer in like the pilot episode and the man was ready to swear absolute fealty to him. As would I, to be honest. As would anyone and everyone. SO much cunt is Cesare Borgia serving at all times!!!
"We love him and loathe him and love to loathe him. His father loves and hates him bc they're too similar. His brother wishes he were him (he's not) His sister doesn't see anyone else. Lucrezia... yes: the incest is fucked up. Also that's why we love it- it's so unhinged, as anything Borgia should be!!! Their relationship... perfect. She's the only one that can possibly understand him, she's the only one he truly loves. She loves him and always has - only a Borgia can truly love a Borgia amirite?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is a man who is clearly Not Okay and you want so much for him to Be Okay but at the same time not, because it's so much more entertaining when he's not and also we love a hopeless case. I rest my case only bc I lose any trace of coherence when talking about him so I dont know what more to add.”

wait. of we can count PAST canto boroughs then there's a bunch more we gotta consider!
I was thinking why the sapling didn't manifest earlier, would not ahab be the prime example of pride, and again the league of sloth?
but that *changes* things. we do have sinclair's and ish's Boroughs too, which I'd claim sinclair has his line lust to a T, and ahab could fit pride too, which would break a new theorem unless...
what if they unlock not for the first resonance, that one just tunes them to it. but the second? which could still fit the envy theory for it responding to Heath's Borough!
So here's how I believe the Sapling of Light works in-universe based on my previous realization and what little info we have.
We see in Canto 7 that the Golden Boughs are parasites - feeding on the desires and consciousness within the heart of whoever they're stabbed into.
I believe that there is a two step process on display here - Resonance and Feeding.
Resonance is what the Bough initially does - it attaches itself to the emotional state of someone in the vicinity and alters reality to match that state. From what we have seen thus far, it would seem Resonance may or may not be required in some way to acquire a Golden Bough, but it's unclear if it's the same as Feeding it.
Feeding is what the Bough does when it is stabbed into the heart of an entity with consciousness. We know it fed on the First Kindred's desire for La Manchaland, as we see he only becomes concerned with his hunger for Blood after he's stabbed.
I believe the process of Feeding is what enables a Bough to be used as a Sapling of Light, with the exact timing of it activating potentially being reliant on Dante in one way or another. They do have a fragment of a Bough in their head after all, one deemed so important that they're advised to kill themself to not let anyone else get it.
So, let's see what Saplings are possible.
There are three other cases of a Golden Bough being stabbed through someone's heart (well, technically four), ones we initially didn't know the effects of when they happened.
There's the Golden Bough in Canto 4, which was stabbed into both Yi Sang and Dongbaek. The former seemed to have caused a hole in Yi Sang that only Dante could see, though at that point we didn't have any more info on what that could mean. The latter would kill Dongbaek, but also seemed preserve her consciousness for long enough for her to be able to give Yi Sang a final message by the end of the dungeon.
Then there's the Golden Bough in Canto 6, which Heathcliff stabbed into his own heart as that would connect him with the Cathy lingering within the manor itself. This Bough would then be stolen by Nelly after the whole ordeal was over.
...And then there's the matter of the Canto 5 Bough. Canto 7 brings up the idea that the Bough was in the Whale's heart because it was also acting as a parasite to the Whale. However, this is much harder to judge how important that is as we. Simply don't know just how sapient the Whales are. They're eldritch entities, we don't know if they even have the kinds of desires that a Golden Bough could feed on.
So, with all of that laid out, here's every Resonated Golden Boughs by Canto so far:
Unfed, held by N Corp
Unfed, held by LCB
Unfed, held by LCB
Fed by Yi Sang and Dongbaek, held by LCB
Fed by the Pallid While (maybe), held by LCB
Fed by Heathcliff, held by N Corp (Coffin Bough is too burnt to be used but i'm mentioning it here for completion)
Fed by First Kindred, held by LCB
We can discount Canto 6 and Canto 1 Boughs being used for Saplings of Light for now since. We don't have them. We can also discount Canto 2 and Canto 3 Boughs as neither of them got stabbed into anyone and thus would be unable to feed on any heart.
This leaves us with:
The First Kindred-fed Bough, likely fed on his Prideful dream and thus being the source of the Binah ability.
The Yi Sang-and-Dongbaek-fed Bough, which we don't know what exactly it fed on but from the fact that Dongbaek's last message was notably less resigned than she was before being stabbed and dying, it likely fed on Sloth and thus could be the source of the Hokma ability.
The Pallid Whale-fed Bough, which uhhhhhh??????????
If we ever get a Sapling of Light ability from the fucking Whale, something tells me it will have to happen after it's confirmed in universe that this is in fact how it all works. Because. What. Would that even do. What Sin did The Fucking Whale commit in its desires that the Bough could feed on. Gluttony???? Maybe??????
But yeah unless we stab the Canto 2 and 3 Golden Boughs into people to feed them, or get the Heathcliff-fed Bough back very soon, I doubt any of them are gonna contribute to the Sapling of Light for now. Rather, we might be getting a lot more Boughs in the future by pulling them out of people who are already stabbed with them.

Biology of Terrans (so far)
1 - Fuel & energy
Already explained in canon: water. However it's not clarified if they need specifically Emberstone-infused water or just water is enough. Judging by S1 part A, Twitch and Thrash goes about probably a week or two unfed before their body goes on automatic drive to find their energy source and can turn aggressive (like humans when we're tired and hungry). [edit: they do specifically need Emberstone water]
2 - Language
It's shown that the current Terrans immediately knows, speak and read in English. I think this is because the Maltos' mother tongue is English. Should a Terran is born, lets say, in Japan or linked to a Japanese person, their base language and literacy is Japanese. If the linked human is multi-cultural, the Terrans might be multilingual but it doesn't seem to be the case since the Malto kids are half-Filipino.
3 - Basic knowledge
Besides having literacy from the moment they're born, the Terrans absorb knowledge a lot faster without having to download them into their brains like a Cybertronian would. But they still require time, experience and teachers.
[Nightshade's high intelligence should've been enabled/recognized by Wheeljack first but they had to make NS super smart out of nowhere while their siblings took a few episodes. OR Nightshade is super smart because they're data(?) is influenced by Alex since he's present when the triplets are born]
What they need longer time to learn is emotional intelligence. They can't understand mixed feelings or read a situation unless someone explains it them.
4 - High adaptability to Earth conditions (HC)
Cybertronians hate Earth's nature not only because it's disgusting to them, because Earth is not friendly to metals. Rusting materials, temperature-based pressures, humidity, atmosphere, dirt, sand, and water -- the Terrans' life source.
In multiple shows, Cybertronians aren't adaptable to Earth's weather. Snow freezes their bodies, lightning can harm them, seawater rusts, etc.. What if the Terrans are immune to them?
Humans are adapted to the natural conditions of our native home. Ex. Tibetans thrive normally with the mountains' thin air while non-natives need oxygen masks. While Cybertronians have very limited time in frozen lands, Terrans can go about as long as they want. Cybertronians need to wash themselves off of seawater to prevent rust, meanwhile the Terrans are just fine.

Shapeshifter: *transforms to look like Eruhaben* Eruhaben: *hairflips* Fool, are you blind? You look nothing like me. First off, I'm taller. Secondly, I DO NOT look so sleep deprived. Also, if you could drag comb through that hair you would be a 7 at most, everyone knows I'm a constant 10-

Gonna request for Alpha!Emo!Wanda w Omega!reader bc I found it so cute the anons request-💕💕💕💕💕
After reader's second heat (that both of them spent together as a mated pair), after that, Wanda starts to act very possessive over reader she starts to growl and snarl at every alpha at the compound and is willing to fight anyone that gets a little too close, scent marks reader and this really sets reader off guard because wands never acted like this and whenever they're cuddling Wanda sets her head in reader's belly, this goes for a while until r starts being sick every morning and her scent changes to something more sweet and milky Wanda's absolutely smooths reader with cuddle,praises and kisses only to reader realize that she may carrying wands pup's
The ending u decide bc I'm out of creativity 😭😭🤚
warnings: omegaverse, pregnancy, possessive behavior
Your girlfriend has always been a more relaxed alpha. Of course, Wanda hated a family and at least two pups of her own, but she wasn't going to push. That time would come when it wanted to. Just being with you was enough. Wanda knew you were loyal and never worried about you leaving her. She has claimed you and you had claimed her, that was all she needed. So you were very confused when Wanda had suddenly become overprotective.
The team, you included, had brushed it off at first. Wanda had just gotten out of her rut and all alphas had behavior problems after that. Then it started to interfere with work. Wanda always had to be near you. If you sat too far from her in meetings, she'd pull your chair closer. You'd have a maximum of thirty minutes before Wanda would come stomping into your office and demanding you return to her room. The worst of it was her habit of picking fights with nearly every alpha that worked in the compound. There were a number of reasons for an alpha to become so snappy, so all you could do was watch.
It was a lot easier than you thought since Wanda resorted to simply following you around like a lost puppy.
Though it was your night to cook for everyone, Wanda had completely taken over. All you could do was prep the table and occasionally hand off some ingredients. "Damn it, who keeps putting the bread so high up?" You stood on the tips of your toes but nothing couldn't reach it.
"Let me get that for you. Some of us just toss stuff up here without much thinking." Thor reached the top of the fridge and handed you the bread. "It's a real shame. You do the most cooking out of anyone here." He firmly patted your shoulder only to immediately put his hands up in defense."Wow, you may wanna check your mate over there."
Your brows furrowed as you turned around to see Wanda giving Thor the meanest stare she could muster. A sigh fell from your lips. "Thank you, Thor. I'll talk to her." You walked over to Wanda and wrapped your arms around her waist. "What's the matter? You've been so cranky lately." Releasing your scent relaxed her a bit, but she was still very tense.
Wanda grumbled but didn't take her eyes off the pan. Truth was, she didn't know what was wrong. One moment, she was fine. Then suddenly, she'd be angry at the mere thought of other people seeing you. Her growling and snarling at other teammates was entirely subconscious. "I…honestly don't know. I thought it was just because of our cycle but that's clearly not an excuse anymore." Everyday she'd wake up and her brain was plagued with terrifying and baseless hypotheticals. Was it safe for you to go on a mission? Could the others be trusted when sparring with you? Why were you anywhere else but your nest?
It wasn't the answer you were hoping for. "That's okay, I'm always here for you. We'll figure it out together." You kissed the back of her neck and pulled her close. "Now can you move from the stove? Everyone likes their burgers differently."
Wanda huffed but stepped away so you could take over. "Fine, just let me do the dishes or something. I don't want you on your feet too long."
✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦
Unfortunately, Wanda's possessive behavior only got worse and no one could figure out why. To make matters worse, you were plagued with all sorts of weird symptoms. The smell of anything would make you sick, your back hurt all the time, and you'd wake nauseous.
"I don't know, Bruce. Wanda's already freaking out. If she finds out I'm sick, she'll flip out." You spent the better part of your morning hooked up to monitors and taking tests. "If there is something wrong with me, just keep it between us." Your nervous scent had filled the room, but it was off. Your scent used to be dewy and floral. Fresh cinnamon and wet roses had suddenly become milk and strawberries. "Has Pepper been around here lately? I didn't think scents lingered this long."
Bruce frowned as he looked over the screens in front of her. "No, it didn't smell like this until you came in.." No matter how many tests he ran, nothing seemed abnormal. No spikes in blood pressure or viruses. Everything was normal. For a moment he was just stumped. Then it dawned on him. "Have you and Wanda…fiddled recently?" A sigh of relief fell from his mouth when you nodded. "That's what it is. You're pregnant!"
Everything stopped for a moment. The fears in your head kept turning. After being subject to so much chemical testing, you had given up on your fertility. But everything made sense. The idea warmed your heart, but you were nervous. "I- we have to go buy a test! Now, come on."
Bruce never expected to be forced into a disguise and dragged to a corner store to buy a pregnancy for one of his beloved teammates, but there was a first time for everything. After the tensest train ride and an awkward 30 minute stand outside of a bodega bathroom, Bruce's theory was confirmed. You were pregnant. "Well, what do you wanna do? Are you gonna tell her?"
You quickly dropped the test inside the plastic ziplock bag and shoved it in your hoodie pocket. "Yes, but I wanna surprise her." Despite your answer, you were so excited. The entire way back to the tower you thought over everything. Names, where you would move, and what their nursery would look like. You'd been so lost in thought, you didn't even notice you had returned home.
"Oh, baby there you are! Where have you been?"
"I'm pregnant," You said without hesitation as you pulled out the test.
"Surprise," Bruce said flatly as he raised his hands.
Wanda nearly exploded. "Oh my god, no way!" She dropped what she was doing and immediately ran to hug you. "I'm gonna be a mom and Pietro's gonna be an uncle!" It was the most childlike excitement anyone had seen Wanda express. She practically threw you up in the air with how face she picked you up. "Oh, we have to go remake your nest and- and buy a crib and- do everything!"
You sprinkled kisses all over Wanda's face. "Hey, hey relax. We got nine months to do all that stuff. Just relax."

does a ship ever just strike you by how beautiful they are? not just physical appearance, but the chemistry, how they act or speak together, and if you're lucky how natural the portrayers are together. the little touches or glances that are added makes each scene just so unf that you can't breathe for a few moments and when they're not onscreen the next scene you just wonder what life was....

Everything about this scene was so good, but this? Tong kneeling on the bed, one foot on the ground, curled down over Gus, their faces so close together but not kissing yet -- suspended in the moment before the kiss -- hands cradling and holding on... The way they're looking at each other?
This made me absolutely crazy
And then!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Gus has been ready, he was just waiting for Tong to catch up, but the check in? Very sexy of Tong. The "this is only happening if you want it to"? So hot.
Also very sexy? This:

CONSENT 👏 IS 👏 SEXY 👏 AF
(consent with a side of neck grabbing? Unf.)
Bonus:
Tumblr media
Same, Gus, same. Was not prepared for that to be hiding under Tong's Keith Haring shirt.

Gabbie Carter doesn't look like this these days as she recently had a baby so her body has undergone some changes. Excellent changes, don't get me wrong! I also suspect she's going to retire from porn. Maybe not—she has posted some magnificent boobie videos involving lactation that are stupid hot, and even tho they could be classified as porn, they're not to me. She's in her home, I think her husband is filming them, and while they're hot af, there's also this incredible wholesomeness to it all. And she just seems so blissfully happy. Which I love. So, I'd be happy for her if she retired. Because apparently photos of her will continue to pop up anyways! I'd never seen this one before, and woah, I mean I have a thing for girls in rollerblades in general, but when it's Gabbie, and ONLY rollerblades? Unf.

some big brother Alfred comforting sad little brother. i imagine there's a great difference between how Alfred would comfort Matthew in colonial times vs the present. 'what's wrong? is there anything i can do? please don't be sad! I love you! do you need me to talk to Lord Father?' vs 'you look like shit. go take a fucking a shower while I make you some pancakes and then you're taking a fucking nap you dickhead. i love you. and comb your fucking hair'
When Matt's young, absolutely. Alfred is very sympathetic to his half-mad baby brother; his personality flaws are understandable and forgivable given that he was a castaway marooned from the French Empire and landed suddenly into Britishness. A lot of genuine distress on Alfred's part about the fact Matt's seeing shit and is often too anxious to eat. He puts Matt on his shoulder when the snow gets too deep and nudges him to eat more and spend more time closer to the fire. It's also pre-industrialization when Americans, as individualistic as they were back then, had a communalist streak. The mad and the various other types of issues are taken care of at home. A burden shared is a burden halved. It's nice to have a baby brother eager to snuggle and read, too, even if he is a little off his rocker from those dark things men do in the dark of the Northwoods.
Older... Older is a little different. It's not cute or sympathetic when Matt occasionally falls off the bandwagon when they're adults. He's peaceful; he's got no real issues by Alfred's metric. He's literally not doing anything useful most of the time, either. He won't meet NATO spending, can't get Quebec under control, and falls apart economically if the US so much looks at the border. There's no 'reason' Alfred can see to excuse Matt's unshowered, unfed, unrested state when he's in a funk. Society has changed, too. What was a healthy respect for individual responsibility is now the only metric by which one's merit is judged. A lot of "well, I don't get to go feral in the woods, or there are actually consequences. Get your shit together." He parrots a lot of bootstrap rhetoric. "Get it together, you have nothing to be upset about." "I'm the superpower, and I live my entire life on an acutely observed high wire act, and I handle that better than you handle having literally no responsibility." But then, when it's obvious, when he can see Matt's made an effort at least, or there's a 'reason' he's downright tender. Kind of goes back to that Calvinist thing of the "deserving needy."
But if Matt or anyone else ever pointed any of this out, Alfred would insist none was happening. Of course they love each other, of course Matt is the exception to his grumbling and that should be obvious. But all too often, unless Alfred is put directly in the path of apparent suffering in a way that doesn't feel burdensome, it can feel like just another task between him and the bottom of his to-do list. One that Matt is supposed to take care of himself because that's their deal. Sometimes it's a reset, though. Like, oh, Matt accidentally drove himself into the ground to keep up with Alfred's batshit lifestyle? That's a bit endearing, and making breakfast, tossing him some ibuprofen, and taking a day are spiritually human things Alfred needs as much as Matt does the physical rest.

Steve isn't a strip club kind of guy, usually. But his friend Tony drags Steve with him tonight.
Steve can admit, he is enjoying himself. Tony chose a men's strip club knowing Steve's taste. Tony's into everything anyway so it didn't slow him down. He has a line of strippers waiting to dance for him since he pulled out a literal bucket of money.
Steve isn't that flashy with his money. He's honestly only tipping the strippers because he assumes they need it. And also, the men are stunning, ripped. Yeah, they're nice to look at.
But it makes Steve's chest hurt looking at these men selling their bodies for money, parading around in their underwear as a necessity. No one should have to do that. But all Steve can do is tip them as much as he can.
Most of them have spotted Tony's bucket of money and are making their way over to him. So Steve's left to watch the stage and tip the dancers as they come and go.
That's when he sees him. By far, the youngest and smallest model the club has. God, he looks fresh out of high school. His skin is smooth and pale. He's fit, Steve can tell, but he only has half the muscles of his coworkers. He needs a little more meat on his bones to work up to them.
Beyond the model's body, his eyes catch Steve's attention. They're a piercing blue that digs into Steve's soul. The boy's hair is long and wavy, brushing across those blue eyes every time he moves his body around the pole.
Steve's mouth waters. He beckons the stripper over for a dance, takes out a hundred-dollar bill. The younger brunet's eyes widen. He straddles Steve's lap seductively and leans in close to his ear.
"You could pay for a private room with that," the boy breathes, digs his hips in circles and rocks a bit. "Or you could save the big bucks and take me home tonight... for free."
The offer is tempting, of course it is, but Steve doesn't want to just bed the boy for a night. He wants him off this stage and into his bed permanently. He doesn't want just sex.
"Just a dance is fine, thank you," Steve says, tucking the money into the waistband of the dancer's booty shorts.
The model shoots him a look, then rushes to the end of the dance. The boy proceeds to avoid Steve the rest of the night, he must be mad Steve declined his offer.
It doesn't surprise Steve in the slightest when he leaves the club later on and finds the same beautiful boy linking arms with an older man, walking toward the parking lot.
Steve returns to the club the next few nights. He watches the young man dance on stage every evening. Then at the end of the night, he watches the brunet go home with a different customer each time.
It's the end of the week and the boy walks out for the first time with no one on his arm, alone. It's the first time he notices Steve lingering by the door.
"It's you," the boy says cautiously, narrowing his eyes at Steve.
"I'm Steve," Steve puts out his hand but the boy only lets out a long breath.
"Bucky," he grits, looking around, refusing to shake Steve's hand.
"You need a ride somewhere?"
"Only if you're inviting me to your place."
"I have the room."
Steve notices the blush spreading into the boy's plump cheeks. Their eyes meet.
"If you're serious... um, yeah."
Steve nods, not looking surprised in the slightest.
"This way," he says clicking his car fob. His car beeps, the headlights flashing.
Steve drives the boy to his home. The younger man doesn't look stunned by the size of Steve's place. Or the decor once they get inside. He seems unfazed, distant even.
Steve fears this is what Bucky's done with every man. He does it because he has to. Because he has nowhere else to go, to sleep. He's homeless, Steve confirms for himself. It's exactly what he feared.
"So, the guest room is up the stairs," Steve says and takes the first couple of steps.
"The guest room?"
When Steve turns around he sees Bucky hasn't moved from his place in the foyer.
"Yes, there's an attached bathroom you're free to use as well."
"What?" Bucky says, shaking his head in confusion.
"I thought you needed a place to crash."
Bucky looks embarrassed, his face is turning that pretty pink color again. And it's beautiful, Steve gets distracted momentarily.
"You were at the strip club," Bucky counters. Steve only nods. "And you..."
He's at a loss for words.
"I offered you a room to stay. It's no trouble, really. It's just up these stairs," Steve motions to him.
Slowly, Bucky begins to step forward and follows Steve up the staircase. When they reach the guest room, Steve opens the door.
"I can offer you some spare clothes although they might be a bit big on you," Steve says, casting a glance up and down the smaller boy.
Bucky notices and arches an eyebrow but he decides to accept the offer.
"If you don't mind, just a t-shirt and sweats would be great."
"Of course, I'll leave them outside the door. There are clean towels in the bathroom. Kitchen is also available. Let me know if you need anything."
"Um, okay…" Bucky says, his hands fidgeting. "Thanks."
"Goodnight," Steve says.
He shuts the door and leaves Bucky inside. He places the pile of spare clothes outside the door and heads back to the master bedroom for the night.
The next morning, Steve has a few hours to himself before Bucky rises. He gets a workout, run, and shower in before he's in the kitchen cooking breakfast.
Bucky comes down in the clothes Steve left for him. They are loose on him, they hang from his small frame and god, it makes Steve want to slip them right off, pick the boy up in his arms, and taste every inch of him.
Steve blinks the thought away.
"Morning," he says. "There's coffee. Breakfast'll be ready in a minute."
"Uh, I can head out if you'd rather," Bucky says.
"If you need to be somewhere otherwise I'd be happy to have your company a little longer."
Bucky stands there silently and in that time, Steve finishes the eggs and turns off the stove. He fills two plates with food and brings them to the table.
Bucky stares at the food as Steve carries his coffee mug over and sits. He motions to Bucky to sit across from him where the second plate is waiting.
Bucky moves slowly like he did last night. Like he's unsure of his every move, but eventually he sits and starts carefully eating. Steve smiles.
"I don't get what you're doing," Bucky mumbles through a bite.
"I'm offering you a place to stay," Steve says.
"For how long?"
"As long as you'd like."
"I can't pay rent."
"I'm not asking."
"What?" Bucky stops eating, his gaze snaps to Steve's in shock.
"You don't have to pay a dime. And you're welcome to stay."
Bucky's brows knit together, his eyes narrow.
"Sex then?"
"No."
"I don't get it."
"I've seen you go home with a different man every night this week," Steve begins to explain, but Bucky cuts him off.
"Why do you care who I fuck?"
"I don't care. I only care if you're using your body to find a place to sleep at night."
Bucky gulps and tries to hide it.
"Were you stalking me?"
"No," Steve laughs this time. "It's simple, really. I live in a big house alone, I have a lot of money I can't spend all on myself. I'd like some company."
"For sex," Bucky repeats again.
"No. I can't make that more clear. You're completely free to go and do as you please. The only catch is, if you live here you have to quit stripping. And if you do, I'll finance all your expenses. Food, clothes, outings."
"So what do I do while I live here?"
"Whatever you want."
"But I'd have to go on outings with you?"
"I'd like you to but nothing's required."
"So I can live here and sit in my room all day and eat all your food and spend all your money and you wouldn't care?"
"That would be fine."
Bucky stares at him for a long moment then blinks in disbelief.
"What?"
Steve continues eating as if to let him process the idea.
"What if I fuck someone else?" Bucky tries.
Steve simply shrugs.
"You wouldn't care?" Bucky balks.
"Why should I?"
"Cause I'd be living in your house, you'd be paying for everything. Why would you do that?"
"I like to take care of people. What I want is to take care of you, Bucky. I don't need anything more in return."
Bucky pulls at his hair, running his hands frustratingly down his face.
"You're so fucking confusing. I thought you were into me. Why would you pick me up at a fucking strip club?"
"Because you needed help. You had no life there."
"This can't be for nothing. No one is that nice."
Steve sighs. "Okay, look. Am I attracted to you? Yes. But that doesn't matter. I'm never going to force you to repay me, especially with your body. I genuinely like taking care of people. I've heard some call it a sugar daddy. That sounds a little weird to me. So I just call it helping you financially so you're not obligated to sell your body in that way."
Bucky stares at him.
"So what, we just co-exist under the same roof fucking other people while you pay for everything?"
"If that's what you want, sure. If one day, you want something else just tell me."
Bucky narrows his eyes, trying to figure out Steve's angle. The angle he doesn't have.
"And what if I want to fuck you?"
"If you truly want that. Not to repay me but because you want me in that way... then we can talk about it."
"Talk about it?" Bucky scoffs. "Jesus, what are you some fifty-year-old prude."
"I'm not a prude and I'm not fifty. I'm forty-three."
"Whatever," Bucky rolls his eyes.
"I will ask one thing. I would appreciate it if you would curb that kind of language. All those foul words don't sound very nice coming out of such a pretty mouth."
Bucky blinks wide. "You're flirting with me. Ha!"
Steve shrugs. "I'm allowed to flirt in my own home. And all I'm asking is you clean up your language if you're going to live here too."
"And if I don't?" Bucky crosses his arms.
"I can't force you. It's about respect. If I decide I don't like this arrangement, I'll discuss with you the terms of ending it."
Bucky stares at Steve for an elongated beat. Like he's trying to figure this out. Like he swears he's being tricked.
"Fine, whatever," Bucky agrees. "No cursing."
"Good. Now let's finish breakfast."
