Is anyone else even on a loyal Wesley route? Because I feel like I’m existing in this magical wonderland where everything is heart-clutchingly romantic and no one else is experiencing it with me?
Like I said it in the discord but:
If you accept the date and ask him what’s wrong, he’s like “oh yeah, sure, [x] everything’s bloody brilliant,” and he is SO UPSET?! Like he completely is not ashamed of how angry he is.
If you turn down the date he “looks at you with a mixture of relief and awe". And that afternoon he is so overwhelmed that you would decline the date for him. And he is like, shaking.
That night he asks if you’re attached to your name, and he gets really shy because he wants to know what you might think about him giving you a pet name. The ones it suggests to give him are so cringe and tooth-rotting but regardless of which one you pick he absolutely loves it, like he is so 🥰🥰🥰
Abd then the next morning he leaves you a dahlia and a note next to your pillow which says
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I am sorry, this man is a CEO Dom whose parents own an international hotel chain, and he is W E A K over MC, completely knees shaking, hand over heart (literally) WEAK over her.
He is a full on dom in his sex scenes but he is the type to beat someone if they even implied hurting her. He has no concept of chill when it comes to MC. And the whole time he’s like what is happening to me
He is, without a doubt, husband.
Get on a fucking Wesley route y’all damn Oof

Hands down, THTH is the best when it comes to their characters! ✨
Here, I thought I'd be loyal to Wesley and do a Hoe account on the Antoine route, but NOPE! I'm so in love with this man! He is so sweet, funny, and genuinely in love with MC����

Ryder, decoded
So the THTH writers apparently googled “Australian slang” and went copy/paste into his dialogue with absolutely no concept of what any of it means or how commonly it’s used.
So, as your resident Australian, I’m going to translate for you.
Below, you’ll find the examples I found so far, a translation, and a rating out of ten for how commonly it’s used / how accurate the slang is.
Disclaimer: I am born and raised Aussie. My ancestors were convicts. And while I do live in a major city, I grew up in the most country of country towns; population 847. So I am fluent in Aussie.
So without further ado:
Tumblr media
Buggers.
If you look up the word buggers you’ll find it’s short for buggery which is the act of engaging in anal sex. But it’s not really used that way any more. I would never use “sexy buggers” that’s kinda weird. It’s only ever used these days as a light-hearted term, such as “cheeky bugger”(usually said with a hair ruffle). Alternatively, you can say someone’s “playing silly buggers” which means they’re messing around/being silly.
Accuracy of usage: 6/10
Tumblr media
True-blue.
I see this and I think of this song which I believe they may have played at Steve Irwin’s funeral. It’s basically the same as “proper” or “right” for the Brits. Interchange with “verifiable”. Is entirely a stereotype and wouldn’t even be used ironically these days. In its place, we would use “fuckin’”. The only time this word is used is when you’re describing someone as “he’s a true-blue Aussie battler” (he’s very Australian)
Accuracy of usage: 1/10
Tumblr media
Sheilas & blokes.
No. Absolutely not. Sheilas 🤢 is a way of describing a group of girls, but it’s very outdated. You could still call a guy a bloke, but it’s not interchangeable with “guy”. A bloke is specifically very traditionally Aussie & masculine, and you’d almost be more likely to use it as an adjective (I.e. “he’s a bit blokey”). I’ll be honest, you want someone who’s “blokey”, think “Gary from LITG”.
Accuracy of usage: 1/10 and 4/10 respectively
Tumblr media
Ripper
Means ‘great’. And unless it’s in relation to specifically calling someone else a ‘ripper legend’ (shortened to ‘ripper ledge’) it’s not used commonly whatsoever.
Accuracy of usage: 2/10
Tumblr media
Bonzer
No. Absolutely not. Never in a million years would bonzer be used today. It also means ‘great’ but this can’t even be used ironically. Even in the deep dark depths of country western NSW, using this word will get you looked at weird.
Accuracy of usage: -10/10
Tumblr media
Crikey
Sorry to disappoint, but this one’s also a no. It means essentially “wow”. The only time we’d use this is to amuse internationals. We associate this word with ol’ mate Steve as much as you do.
RIP buddy 🪦
Accuracy of usage: 2/10
Tumblr media
Fair dinkum & arvo
You’d ask if something was ‘fair dinkum’ if you were questioning if the aforementioned statement was true, or you were trying to figure out if someone was for real. “I’m Spider-Man”, “oh, fair dinkum?” It is… not common. Very outdated and only your countriest of the country boys would use it (and only if they’re 60+)
Now- ARVO- this is a different story. I use arvo EVERY DAY. It is short for afternoon and I don’t remember the last time I used the full word. “What’re you doin s’arvo?” Absolutely used every single day.
Accuracy of usage: 3/10 and 10/10
Tumblr media
Have a squiz and take a gander
Both mean the same thing: take a look. Do not ask me where they come from but welcome to Australia. I have definitely said “give us a squiz” or “I’ll take a squiz” lol. The latter is still said but only by much older people. A funnier version ( only said ironically) is ‘have a captain cook’ (rhyming slang for ‘have a look’)
Accuracy of usage: 9/10 and 7/10
Tumblr media
Have a yarn
Means ‘have a chat’, ‘talk’, or ‘shooting the shit’. This is actually really commonly used by indigenous Australians, and ‘yarning’ culture is really crucial and involves a cuppa tea 😁 I liked seeing this one pop up.
Accuracy of usage: 10/10
Possible upcoming slang:
Yeah, nah: No
Nah, yeah: Yes
Have a root: Sex
Pull your head in: Calm down, get it together, wisen up
Ta: thank you
Sweet as: sounds good
Righto/Righteo: alright
No worries: not a problem, that’s okay. Often said in conjunction with ‘she’ll be right’
No wukkas: no worries, short for “no wukkin furries” which is an intentional mispronunciation of “no fuckin’ worries”.
Bloody oath: bloody hell/Fuckin’ hell
Ocker/yobbo: super Aussie guy, see “bloke”. Specifically very country.
Drongo: forbidden phrase. Never used ever. Means an idiot/dork. If they use this I quit.
Flamin’ galah: said ironically, very funny. Said seriously, no.
Dropkick: super common. Similar to derro or deadshit. A loser, someone who is going nowhere in life.
Derro/deadshit: derro is short for derelict. Someone who bums cigarettes at the train station. Wears thongs (flipflops) everywhere even in winter.
Bum: (verb) to bum sth: to beg for/ ask for / grift for. “Can I bum a smoke off ya” (often followed by “I’ll pay you back”)
Let’s see what gems they come out with this week, shall we?

He couldn’t take his eyes off her as she flitted around the villa, light and graceful as the butterfly that he’d shooed from her nose. He didn’t blame the poor thing; if its nature was to seek out beauty to sustain itself, it could’ve lived a thousand years on Sophie.

Stupidly smutty one-shot for Wesley from Too Hot to Handle
But it was his eyes– those dark, dark eyes, burning only for her, black like the cover of darkness she so longed to bathe in. To have a moment alone with those eyes, just a moment, maybe two, to pull his body against hers and have his eyes be the only ones devouring her, the way that she ached to have him.

Would you consider making another santi fic or one with Amari or Ryder?(highly requested for santi)🫢
….. maybe.
I was briefly considering doing a Ryder one but I never did his route so idk 😂
I feel weird being like the only person writing consistently for this fandom (in English at least. God I wish I could read Portuguese)
Amari is so sweet but I don’t see her that way so I’m not sure I could write something for her, I’m sorry lovely!
Still salty I wasn’t allowed to have Cassia 😒

I love seeing your opinion on ryder's expressions, it reminds me of first playing the Wesley route because I always headcannoned that MC was scottish like me but it was so painful when Wesley said he lived in Edinburgh Castle and MC believed him 😭 like girlie you live near there too
(ps so happy to see a scottish character that's not from glasgow, Wesley is reqlly carrying all the representation)
I honestly hate when writers do international characters but don’t do the research???? Like I’ve written fics that I TOILED over to find every single tiny detail about the place the character was from so that if, on the very slim chance, someone who was from there read it, they’d go HEY that’s right!!!!
And YES why are the Scots always from Glasgow!? In LITG I was so glad to see Iona is from Aberdeen like LETS HAVE SOME NORTHERN REP PLZ!!!!
Would love to see more people take on Aussie characters. As long as you don’t use the word drongo, and you don’t try to write their dialogue phonetically, you’ll probably be fine.
(Gday moit! Will be the death of me)
PSA insert an Aussie character in your fics, I’ll scream over them 😁

Where’s our reunion 😞
Tumblr media
“Nature bathing,” he repeated. “The second best way to de-stress.” He winked.
“Well…” she said, her voice shaking. “I’m… I don’t have to be… I’ve got my bikini on…” Elora shivered as Santi traced his fingers up her arm, over her shoulder, onto the back of her neck. With no more than a flick of his wrist, he had the tie of her bikini top undone. She covered her breasts with her hands, giggling as he tossed the tiny fabric of her swimwear on top of his clothes. "Not any more, you don't," he grinned.

Another THTH fic, how could I not after this week, I swooned so hard I almost fell over.
