DID YOU KNOW THAT ANDY SURIANO TALKED ABT YOUR COMIC ON INSTA???????????

YEAH I SAW IT!

really cool!!!!!! nice things were said about my art and story!!!!!! i am so flattered!!!!!!!!!! i am still figuring out how to react to it all!!!

[sunlessea]

the door of its office feels strikingly chill against his flushed skin, a curse and blessing : it makes him tense, starkly aware of the people who walk 'long the factories floors on the other side, whilst simultaneously acting as its own stimulation, each time he's pressed against it when it grinds forward against his hips. his nipples, erect and sensitive as they are, brush into the cool metal every time he's pushed into it, but even without the tease of the cold, he's overwhelmed, enveloped entirely against fires' body, and that aside, he is so focused on each thrust of its dick along his ass.

his breath catches each time it thrusts past his entrance, at how long it is to leave precum falling down along his back where it pulls his hips closer to it. he doesn't even think it needs to, the difference in their sizes being so prominent - it's just showing off at this point. and why wouldn't it : for every bit and quip he'd made up to this point, he'd practically collapsed panting out its name with its tongue so deep inside of him. it has him in the palm of its claws, body trembling in objective anticipation each time it so much as teases at pushing inside of him. were there ever any doubt how badly he wants it, he'd be ashamed to admit how obvious it is now, even in how he occasionally bites back his own complaints, eager moans in their place.

"i can't - i can't just-mm..." everything is muffled by the way he has his hands clamped over his mouth : his voice, his panting, and the way his protests turn to lewd groaning the harsher its grinding starts to get. he's still trying to whisper, too, but his heart is racing with the candles' glow, and he is... so turned on. he's already lost, and he knows it, yet how desperately he clings to his own pride. he's never slept with another man before, or something to the adjacent of men, and how painfully his own hardened dick aches, he's not sure he's ever realized just how much he's wanted this...

"oh god..." terribly ironic, this is where he'd choose to take that name in vain now after all this time. if it weren't for fires pressed against him, he'd collapse, he just knows it. he's not sure this is any better, where the door subtly shakes each time it pushes its cock along his ass. he doesn't even want to think about what exactly it has planned with him like this - and yet he clearly begs for it, however silent his yearning. if anyone should fear the threat of his boss' growl it's him, but he's almost wilting under it, breath hitching where he feels it start to position itself behind him at last, the tip of its cock pressing against his entrance. his own breaths quicken shortly after, spit from his lips catching where he bites down on his fingers, desperate and wanting - and horny.

"n, no, we can't let-... don't be stupid..." he isn't protesting the way its length enters him, mercifully slow, and mercilessly painful. his breaths turn to pants, his voice a whimper where his eyes close, tears already pricking at the corners of them. he can still feel how close he'd gotten where its tongue had curled so deeply inside of him, and that preparation is the only thing that lessens the difficulty of how large its cock is against his much more human body. it hurts, and he finds himself groaning from it, teeth biting down on his fingers in desperate attempt to keep from crying out, either from the pain or the pleasure of it. it's ... so thick, brutally monstrous in stature in comparison to him, so small underneath it. he'd always considered himself average height, but this ... his blood starts to fall down his lips from biting too hard, skin broken on his fingers. "a-ah...!" it's so muffled, but at last his will breaks, the deeper it pushes, legs and thighs trembling against fires holding him up. there's a rush of dizziness to his head, and he can't tell if he wants it to take him even slower, or to start railing him just like this-

either way, its teeth sinking into his throat leaves him whining under his hands, his head lulling to the opposite side to give it more space, even where he refuses his clear voice to it. his length twitches, dripping with precum just as well. "you're so... so big," he whimpers for it, weight falling slack against the door, for whatever much he could still move. he feels like he can barely breathe, and it's taking everything in him not to start crying out for it. "h...hot... i feel so-" so good...! he does want its cock deeper : more than that. it hurts, and they shouldn't be doing this, not at all, but especially not here. and yet- "sir, please," his moan this time is louder, no matter how hard he tries to quiet himself, "they can't hear us, th-they'll know-"

it knows precisely what it's doing, and that may very well be the worst of it : from how much of its weight it presses 'gainst him, to the placement of each bruise it leaves in the wake of its teeth and tongue where its mouth wanders over the expanse of his back. unblemished, once, save the freckles littering every inch of his skin; now with every nip and nibble it pauses solely to mark and brand the places it finds him most sensitive, tantalizing each tender section it can find with its tongue, fighting against its own temptation to sink its teeth in where blood blossoms just 'neath the surface. and it's found him to be quite sensitive, so far, and eager besides ...

just as its tongue teases his skin, it'd teased far more in their shared anticipation. it'd kept his hands pulled behind his back in vice grip, where its claws ensured his hips parted, and for all he'd learned of its own anatomy it would revel in the way his thighs trembled where it'd bowed its head forward after a moment's time teasing the feeling of the tip of its tongue over his entrance in short, quick licks, and only when it tired of teasing did it press itself flush 'gainst the curve of his ass, and with it, thrusting the generous length of its tongue inside of him—and what a messy affair that'd been, drool falling in strings from the edges of its lips 'long before it'd curled its tongue inside him, and it'd only pulled itself away when it feared his knees might buckle, and its weight against him was as much for its own enjoyment as it was mere necessity.

this ... is what's led them to their present state, with it murmuring all sorts of honey-tongued comforts 'bove its rumbling purr and swallowed down moans. its allowed him the grace to steady himself as he'd like : mentally, or emotionally ... it suspects he hadn't expected its interest to veer quite so starkly lewd, though it had never considered it being without question, the way he pleads and wilts against it.

just like before, just as he does now.

" oh, i'm more than serious... " it's voice is a mockery, despite its honesty. with how it grins 'gainst the slope of his shoulder, to the marks its claws leave in his hips where it tugs him closer, presses its weight harder against him—and resulting, rocking the full length of its cock harder against his ass with each less than subtle roll of its hips. it's own arousal is even less subtle than how it grinds against him; precum dripping onto the small of his back where it thrusts up past his entrance, and slipping down its thighs where it is otherwise untouched, pleasantly warm, and frustratingly wanting.

he's small in comparison to it, but that's all more for his charm. with every quip or strangled down groan, his body shudders, and where it has him pinned flush 'gainst the frame, its form nearly envelops him. and it wants to enshroud him like this, to hear every pant and plea and whimper—where he worries for it, it revels.

" let them. " even when purr falls to growl, it is of no threat to him, even where it bares its teeth at last against his neck, shifting its hips to angle itself properly, push the head of its cock against his entrance still slick with its own spit. the way his body trembles then, is inviting—as much as is the way it catches his pulse racing 'neath its tongue as it trails it up his neck. " i want to hear you, little light ... " its grip tightens against his hip, where slowly—in what little kindness it offers behind its shuddering false-breaths—it pushes forward inside of him, growling demand 'fore it sinks its teeth deep in too. " let me hear you. "

One of my favorite parts of phase 2 (and indeed one of the few moments I resonated with IDW Prowl) was when the neutrals were coming back to Cybertron and Prowl said that he refused to let Autobots be pushed aside and overruled after they were the ones who fought for freedom for 4 million years (the exact wording escapes me atm).

And I mean, that resentment still holds true even once the colonists come on bc like. As much as it's true that Cybertron's culture is fucked up, and as funny as it can be to paint Cybertronians as a bunch of weirdos who consider trying to kill someone as a common greeting not important enough to hold a grudge over.... The colonists POV kind of pissed me off a lot of times, as did the narrative tone/implications that Cybertronians are forever warlike and doomed to die by their own hands bc it just strikes me as an extremely judgemental and unsympathetic way to deal with a huge group of people with massive war PTSD and political/social tensions that were rampant even before the war?

Like, imagine living in a society rife with bigotry and discrimination where you get locked into certain occupations and social strata based on how you were born. The political tension is so bad there's a string of assassinations of politicians and leaders. The whole planet erupts into an outright war that leads (even unintentionally) to famine and chemical/biological warfare that destroys your planet. Both sides of the war are so entrenched in their pre-war sides and resentment for each other that this war lasts 4 million years and you don't even have a home planet any more. Then your home planet gets restored and a bunch of sheltered fucks come home and go "ewww why are you so violent?? You're a bunch of freaks just go live in the wilderness so that our home can belong to The Pure People Who Weren't Stupid And Evil Enough To Be Trapped In War" and then a bunch of colonists from places that know nothing about your history go "lol you people are so weird?? 🤣🤣 I don't get why y'all are fighting can't you just like, stop??? Oh okay you people are just fucked up and evil and stupid then" ((their planets are based on colonialism where their Primes wiped out the native populations btw whereas the Autobots and OP in particular fought to save organics. But that never gets brought up as a point in their favor)) as if the damage of a lifetime of war and a society that was broken even before the war can just magically go away now that the war is over.

Prowl fucking sucks but he was basically the only person that pointed out the injustice of that.

And then from then on out most of the characters from other colonies like Caminus and wherever else are going "i fucking hate you and your conflicts" w/ people like literal-nobody Slide and various Camiens getting to just sit there lecturing Optimus about how Cybertronians are too violent for their own good and how their conflicts are stupid, with only brief sympathetic moments where the Cybertronians get to be recognized as their own ppl who deserve sympathy before going right back to being lambasted.

Like I literally struggled to enjoy the story at multiple points because there was only so much I could take of the characters I knew and loved being raked over coals constantly while barely getting to defend themselves or be defended by the narrative so like. It was just fucking depressing and a little infuriating to read exRID/OP

Hi!

I'm a little confused about what Y/N works as. To me, they look like a manager, kind of, but they have a staff hat, so I assume that means they're a lower/general employee. Do they work with Sun and Moon directly or do they just see the boys often when they're working?

Sorry if this was asked before!

-An interested anon :))

P.S. you're art style is beautiful <3

You have activated my trap card, dear @chor-reblogs >:)

So, this is something I'm INCREDIBLY glad I got an ask for, as Y/N's role is very plot relevant to the catalyst event of the fic. (In a way...)

To start off, you're actually half-right on the manager idea! In Chasing Stars, every Pizza-Plex employee is meant to have a 'supervisor' for the first month or so - the person they can go to for help or clarification instead of bothering upper management with their plebeian pleas. This supervisor is also meant to give the employee under them their welcoming tour, along with their uniform. The supervisor is always the most experienced (via time there worked) in the same position (ex. food staff, custodian, P&S) as the person they're supervising, and don't actually have much authority over them.

This is how things usually go, HOWEVER, when Y/N was accepted into their role as General Staff, there wasn't anyone else currently in that position (the previous ones 'left' rather quickly. Hm.) This resulted in them not receiving a supervisor, along with a stark lack of instructions. Sucks for them I guess!

But what sucks even more is that shortly after being hired, ANOTHER general staff member joins the team, and since Y/N is technically the most experienced General Staff member... They become her supervisor.

Who is this mysterious girl? Why, Vanessa A. of course!

Vanessa's nickname for the reader in the fic is 'Boss', and despite Y/N trying to correct her that: A. They have have literally no jurisdiction over her and B. That they're just as clueless as she is, she insists upon the name. Even after she gets put on Security duty due to [SPOILER], she keeps term for Y/N. (Interspersed with a more fond nickname that I shall not disclose yet).

Vanessa and the readers relationship is a significant and complicated one that's going to change a lot throughout the fic. In fact, I'd call it the second most important relationship in terms of plot/themes, after the DCA. But overall, I'd say they're... 'good friends'.

As for the last part of your question - which yeesh, sorry for the yap session - the role of General Staff is to do whatever odd jobs are left over after everyone is assigned their work, but more importantly, they can be called on by any animatronic or other staff member that happens to need help with their job. You can basically summon them like your personal butler. Of course, Sun and Moon abuse this ability to the extreme, which means that Y/N ends up working with them very often. (I mean, the daycare just gets so busy and we're so understaffed!! You understand, don't you? And- we finish the work so quick with YOUR help that you may as well stick around awhile longer, right? Management won't care about a few missing minutes... or hours. We won't tell if you don't :) )

(PS. CS! Vanessa's personality is very inspired by @/naffeclipse, because by god I love her interpretation of the character so much.)

EDIT: I don't consider any of this to be a spoiler btw! You learn all of this within the first 2-3 chapters :3

Gascoigne's beast form stuff (ask reply)

@ anon I decided to respond in this blog instead of my personal/rambles one, hope this is ok!

(Model ripped by tokami-fuko on dA ( x ))

I think this is a fair suggestion that his transformation might go even further, especially considering the fact that he not only barely has any fur, but also his skin keeps its color! Beasthood has a consistent trend of making skin that unnatural grey color:

(LOVE that they bothered to give bestial hunter's normal form unnatural skin color too despite the fact that we can't see it in game! Sometimes their attention to detail is just.. something)

Amelia is probably the biggest pointer as we are clearly shown her human skin color on her hands in a cutscene.. In fact, arguably, Gascoigne is doing a bit better than average Huntsmen, or even better than the fellow Old Hunters (look at hostile Old Hunter mob and 'true' form of Bestial Hunter). He has been losing himself to the hunt and paranoia for a while now and finally lost it, but he doesn't have that much fur, his skin color didn't alter. (He also doesn't have horns unlike Cleric Beasts, Abhorrent Beasts and even Large Huntsmen, but these are not for all beasts so we don't have to count them!)

I think that Huntsmen are transforming gradually over time, consumed by blood and aggression, and their 'final' form is Scourge Beast type, when they become completely animalistic:

I think it is valid to believe that Gascoigne could transform even further, there are enough reasons to think so! He is still too humanoid, all things considered! I will just move onto my personal interpretation now!

The thing about Cleric Beast-leaning Gascoigne is a really great topic of discussion! He already was a 'Father' (as in, religious figure) in his homeland, so, a cleric! As for Yharnam life, not only he was with the Healing Church once and quit it, but also his transformation happens extremely abruptly, that we only saw with Amelia!

(Interviews: ( x ))

The thing about Cleric Beasts is that they're so horrible because they've been holding back for so long. I can imagine Gascoigne being the same, as someone struggling to hold back so much for his family. We just happen to meet him when he finally breaks, but the guy must have had a huge will power to last as much as he did. +Also, please correct me if this was debunked, but as someone who always uses hunter summons to examine their patterns I've noticed that Gascoigne is the only one who never even once uses Blood Vials? If this is intentional, it could be a further evidence of his self-restraint: avoiding consuming the blood being aware of its addicting properties!

But here is why personally I do not headcanon that Gascoigne could transform even further! Unlike average people that are turning gradually, with strongly self-restraining people whatever form they take when they finally break IS their inner beast, it its truest form! This IS already his "cleric beast" form.... And it is not all that big and scary or impressive, because HE didn't have as much evil to hold back as average clerics in Healing Church. One person's very worst won't be the same as another person's very worst, but I also think it psychologically "helped" him to waste some aggression in the hunt - something Laurence and Amelia didn't have!

He murdered and part of the dark urges would escape through it, but he did not hunt in the same unhinged way as Ludwig either, so he is not transforming into someone as big and scary as him. He is just helping people! Not to mention Viola helping him to calm down with the music box when he was forgetting himself in the hunt. Just the right balance between what impulses to restrain and what to unleash!

My personal headcanon is that he cut the ties with the Healing Church over its corruption and wish to self-isolate and abandon the hunt (with the exception of its own walls), leaving the citizens to fend for themselves and defaming Oedon Chapel to bury the "proper" hunt as a concept. He was a honest man with a sense of justice and could not stand resorting to safety and not doing anything to help... But he still had religious principles of self-restrain and patience internalized; if not Healing Church ones, then those of the Church in whatever country he came from! It is also why whereas I believe that Cheric Beast of the Bridge was a Healing Church hunter too, since he drops Sword Hunter badge, he certainly avoided the hunt except for maybe defending Amelia, and mostly participated indirectly as the commander. (Honorable mention: Henriett that did the same, because her clothes imitate Old Hunters' set and she is a summon against Healing Church bosses, but she has Church weapons).

_____________________

Thank you very much for an ask, it was interesting to think about and it helped me to shape my interpretation of the character better! He definitely has something in common with Cleric Beasts, but I just personally like to think that as a 'hold back and snap' kind of beast rather than 'gradually transforming' kind of beast, this IS his "worst"- Still very strong and fearsome, but far from how much evil the corrupt clerics held back! He is just a good boy!

Hunter carrying a crying Amity and putting her directly in front of Luz like: "Help I made her cry by being a huge bitch and I don't know how to fix it. I thought she'd just get mad and call me slurs like normal. Yknow for Fun. Help. Pls."

LMAO.

hunter would rather admit inflicting grievous physical harm to luz than admit he made amity cry, tbh. he knows luz would immediately assume he did something beyond-the-pale awful (and probably be right).

he's actually Pretty Justified in this particular gleeful bitchiness. which makes it even more vexing that amity takes it so hard. come on, blight. let me revel in your misfortune >:(((

[lokiinmediasideblog]

Can I be controversial and say that I'm tired of shippers (esp. Sylkis and Lokiuses) giving Disney too much credit for the sake of their ships?

With Lokiuses I will be seeing too much credit because Loki and Mobius are standing close together or hugging or something. And them acting like it's the epitome of queer rep. It's not even queerbaiting... they're just next to each other.... I also don't get what is so special about this ship that it has to be cannon, and why some of you treat it like the only queer ship that matters for LGBTQIA+ rep. Y'all don't even get the personalities right in fanfic and turn it into Ineffable Husbands 2.0. I'd argue Lokius has a darker dynamic than that and is far from equivalent to Ineffable Husbands. The characters just kinda look like each other but have very different dynamics.

With Sylkis I've recently been seeing (esp. on TWT but I just saw a post in the Loki tag here on Tumblr) this erasure of Disney's homophobic history with "See they have NO problem with MLM and queer people. Let's forget they used Loki's genderfluidity was used to market the series and nothing was done with it."

Also, the examples provided to prove that "Disney has no trouble with the gays" are: 1. from a movie that Marvel likes to pretend doesn't exist because they only care about money and not rep (and yes it was a very important step. I'm not denying that), and 2. A very recent example of a show that just came out in this very year and last month *ba-dum-tss.* Why the fuck should I congratulate Disney for increasing LGBTQIA+ representation at a GLACIAL pace? Other companies have done better! Istg if you defend them I'll roll my eyes...

Do I have to go over with you guys about the how long it took for Valkyrie's bisexuality to be confirmed within the MCU and not just in interviews? There was so much hype about her being the first confirmed bisexual in the Thor movies. Tessa Thompson FOUGHT to have a scene confirming that Valkyrie liked women in TR that was CUT OFF from the final product.

The closest thing to rep that TR was allowed to have fell more under queer-coding towards the GM and Loki. Loki "cozied up" with the evil Grandmaster to avoid fighting in the gladiatorial arena in some scenes while framing Loki as spineless, treacherous, and needing "correction" from the hero that didn't shy away from fighting in the arena. And the next bit of rep we got from there was fucking gay Russo. Y'all have TERRIBLE memories.

An example of this Marvel defense bullshit to show I am not making this shit up:

Stop giving the fucking mouse credit and money. Y'all don't even like what happened in the series and are also 100% unsatisfied with how it ended.

I mean, technically, Matt is a cryptid trying to look human

So I see no issue here !

I love Vampire Matt, I love whenever I scroll on my feed and I see him in cool Vampire/Gothic-esc/Victorian-esc outfits, silly little guy

Every day before I go to school I check your blog to see if you’ve posted any new fics and if you have then I read whatever fic(s) you’ve posted throughout the day or if you haven’t posted anything new I’ll go back and reread some of your old fics and I just wanted to say that reading them helps make my days (especially school days) a little bit more bearable so thank you. :)

Me rn /pos

Thank you so much, I’m very glad to be of help <3

[ethrealprincess]

my dms are now open btw

[taffywabbit]

tumblr's posting format is ideal for lots of very specific things but one thing it is USELESS for is when dozens of strangers who don't follow you keep telling you the same thing in their tags/reblogs of your post and there's no good way to say "YES I KNOW ALREADY AND ALSO I POSTED THIS MONTHS AGO" to all of them unless you wanna tell each of them individually (deranged and evil and wrong to do)

Still thinking about the ask you answered a while ago mentioning Gordon n' Arden "chemistry" and was wondering if you had more thoughts about it you wanted to share! IDK why but I'm always so captivated when villains get a one-sided interest in a protagonist and causes problems on purpose about it; especially when said protagonist has their own love interests. It's just such a fun drama to rotate in my head and I'm so curious about how it'd go down with this cast

yessss let me spill :))

ok so yeah Arden deliberately targets Gordon to fuck with Ben. This is from flirting to threatening to maim/kill him. Using Gordon is also a way to make Benrey compliant, metaphorically and also literally using him like a shield.

Truth be told, Arden doesn’t really care for humans. He sees em’ as meat sacks with short life spans that are easy to mess with. (However Arden’s primary form is very visibly based on that of a screwed up inerpretation of a person so there’s something there he’s not admitting.)

Arden pretty much treats Gordon the same way- a pawn to get to Ben, with the added bonus of finding him sorta cute. (Must be a family thing.)

And you could probably understand that Gordon isn’t a huge fan. And it’s not like a Benrey situation where he sees him like a nuisance initially . He knows Arden would kill him without a second thought so he’s admittedly afraid- and also pissed off.

Tho I keep thinking of Arden making Gordon tango with him. For fun. Not even Ben is there he’s just doing it for his own amusement.

I guess it would fall into the “Villainous Crush” trope? Or maybe “Targeted to hurt the Hero” idk

[mamahersh]

Just wanted to drop in a say how much I appreciate your tma fic rec posts - I discovered them via another blog, and they always have amazing fics! I've sorta spiraled (ha) into binging all the recs you've posted lol

Enjoy the brain rot ;)

And it makes me very happy to hear that you've enjoyed the fic rec posts! I know it's hard sometimes to find good fics sometimes, and I personally always enjoy a good fic rec post seeing as the alternative is sorting through hundreds to thousands of fics looking for just the right thing to read.
