Hi finnie! Sorry to bother you but u was wondering if you could write something for young Justice Riddler from your list maybe 15 and 51? He is just a cutie! Sorry I don't send request a lot! (≡^∇^≡)

Young Justice!Riddler x Fem!Reader, word count: 719 oooooooh yes please!! these are perfect for him, get ready for some nervous first time eddie!! 💚 request info • prompt list • send me a request • kofi • masterlist minors DNI!! 🔞 cw: virginity loss, reader has a vagina but no gendered terms are used, first time sex, nervous eddie


"You're ok with this, yeah?"
As you straddled Eddie's waist, it only then occurred to you that he hadn't replied as confidently as you would have liked when you asked him if he wanted you to be on top. Rather, he'd offered a nervous nod, a stammered 'yes' and then a sharp inhale that never seemed to come back out.
You'd shifted out from underneath his weak grip on your sides, then pushed him gently down onto the mattress, taking care to lift his glasses gently from his face and place them carefully next to the bed. He'd been so willing, so pliant, and you worried about whether he felt like he was just going through the motions.
"If it's not ok, Eddie, we can wait and try again some other time. I really don't-"
"No! No, no. Please, no. I want this to happen. I think I need this to happen. I just... I was nervous. I am nervous."
With a slight giggle, intended to be warming and reassuring rather than patronising, you sat up straight. As you moved, you brushed past his cock, twitching against your body as his eyes closed tight.
"Why are you so nervous?"
One of your hands rested on his abdomen, almost keeping him steady as he trembled with nerves. The other moved up his torso, fingers walking towards the tiny patch of hair on his chest before stopping to stroke it delicately. He couldn't help but smile as he made out the pattern your finger was moving it. A question mark, drawn over and over again as he spoke.
"I don't want to get it wrong."
"What do you think you're going to get wrong, Eddie? You're the Riddler. You don't get things wrong."
That little boost of confidence seemed to have done wonders for him as he reached his slightly quivering hands up and placed them on either side of your waist.
"I'm just worried about... I've not quite practised enough... bucking my hips. I wanted to get it perfect for the first time."
"Ah... did you receive bad feedback from someone else?"
He glanced to the side, lips pressed tightly shut. Somehow, everything fell into place, and you reached your hand to his cheek, stroking against his pointed sideburns and feeling the heat from the deep, red flush on his skin.
"Oh, Eddie. You mean your first time?"
Eddie nodded bashfully, his whole body seeming a shade pinker than it had moments ago. Your own body seemed warmer too, the idea that you were going to be important to Eddie, someone who was in turn so important to you, caused your heartbeat to rise steadily, your blood heating as you began to subconsciously grind your hips a little against him.
"Come here, you sweet little thing. You don't have to be embarrassed."
You helped him shift upright slightly, leaning into him and bringing his face to your bare chest, holding it close as you played with the longer hair at the nape of his neck.
"Of course not. This is actually a bit of a turn on."
"R-really?"
There was a hesitance in his voice, as though he couldn't quite believe that you might be telling the truth. But as you brought one hand from him and helped to position his head against your now desperate cunt, he realised he might have to take your word for it.
With only a smile and a subtle bite of your lip, you began to ease yourself back and forth on his cock, feeling it throbbing against your walls as he quickly tore his hands away from you and found the sheets, clutching them with whitening knuckles and reddening fingertips.
"Are you ok, Eddie? Is this pace good for you?"
He could only nod, he feared that opening his mouth might make him whine, and whining might make him lose control, and losing conrol meant that the tiny bit of restraint he had in him would snap and his quickly formed orgasm would be released.
No, he could hold out, just a little bit longer, if only to make sure he could take it for just a little bit longer the next time.
God, he hoped there would be a next time. Practice was the only way he would get better, after all.

Even if Jesse hadn't already loaded up on anything and everything he could get his hands on to block the sound of his cocksure piece of shit sperm donor peacocking on the other side of the room, his response to Coco's offer would have been a resounding yes. As it was, Court earned a wide, genuine smile from Jesse. "I always wanna get weird with you," he said, words slurring only just as he reached out to boop Coco's nose. He waggled his brows at his friend enticingly. "Maybe I'll toss in some of the goodies from my pocket and make this a real party."
who: @jessehart when: may 27th, shortly before g's texts where: the commencement gala
Court grinned when he saw Jesse, one of the few actually genuine smiles he had put on all evening, weaving through the few people between them to throw an arm around his shoulder. "Since it's the off-season and everything..." Court said, head angling as they gave Jesse a mischievous look, complete with a sparkle to make his blue eyes even brighter than normal. Thank god, Coco seriously needing the break, considering his knee had been twinging with pain ever since he had seemingly re-tweaked it in their championship game. Not that it had even been fine before that - maybe he shouldn't have played a whole season on it. At least the haze of the painkillers helped with more than just the knee. And he knew Jesse was always down, so he wouldn't even have to be the halfway to washed up athlete alone in the bathroom doing drugs. That night, at least. "I have some perc's and wanted to look for my best buddy in case he wanted to get weird with me," he said, the suggestion left hanging for Jesse to accept, Court pretty sure he wouldn't have to tempt him with much more than a straight forward offer.

Hannibal and Will - 'a lil kiss'
[original post]
@mongooseundertheporch
"Very late. Later than either I or Alana normally stay." Will said, brows raising. He sat on the edge of his desk, arms crossing protectively across his chest. "What'd you talk about Dr. Lecter?" He tilted his head slightly, eyes drilling holes into the nice suit that Hannibal wore, like usual.
----------------------
"Alana was asking for my opinion regarding a patient of hers. I was given the impression when she spoke on the phone that she would benefit from talking in person." It was true, and Hannibal only said it because he knew they both knew Hannibal wasn't permitted to divulge anything more than vague facts if this was about a patient.
"I was... hoping I might find you here," he admitted, permitting something akin to demureness to colour his tone.

do y'all think that Pattadol would use a formal title/term of address with Marcille in post-canon? I'm torn between "yes, because she's got a new job and she wants to Do It Properly," and "no, maybe at first, but it's kind of shallow to have her still doing that a year or more later"
#not doing a poll just give me some replies if u got thoughts#like I think it could be fun and fits her character but also like it feels a little forced. to have her still doing that#EDIT: like specifically forced bc like I don't think Marcille would Want her too really#so like would she stop would Marcille ask her to stop ig is more the question.

the marionette, ground floor; 22nd january, afternoon / @anchoragestarters
Playing the role of concerned citizen, invested city council member, was one thing but performing that role to any satsifying degree was quite another. Hirokazu Amuro had not complained when he'd been taken aisde by the cops to give his take on what he'd seen but he'd remained utterly tightlipped about any detail not immediately crucial to the case. His business was entire his own. Of course, this was not a rule that applied both ways; everyone else's business was his as well and this whole thing had more than piqued his curiosity.
He'd been stood by an elevator on the ground floor of the Marionette, lit cigarette in his hand and smoke billowing up toward the high ceiling. There were no rules, of course, to stop him and any passerby who thought to complain would have received the deeply scathing gaze of a man who thought they were -- just as deeply -- stupid for even bothering. Still, with one sharp clap of the hands, a passerby's attention was demanded all the same.
"Dreadful what's happened here, eh? It does make you wonder about the state of security though," said Kaz, coolly, a drag taken from that still lit cigarette. "In a place like this too, to think it could so quickly go the way of that dreadful cinema downtown."
#« 𝚑𝚒𝚛𝚘𝚔𝚊𝚣𝚞 » / 「 replies. 」#anchoragestarters#smoking tw#heeeeeeeeeeeloooo i wanted to use his involvement in the plot drop hehe and i already replied to the available opens so#have this pls stares at u with my big wet eyes#please don't feel pressure to match length or anything....actually all my kaz drafts are v long rn so i don't mind smth quicker at all hehe#i actually didn't make him smoke bc of the gif. that was just a convenient coincidence. he's just here to be annoying though HEHE

think i've decided that i really am gonna delete basically all of the older stuff in my drafts unless i'm really really really attached to something... haven't decided what all is going or like, what the cutoff point is gonna be just yet, but. i'd really rather just get some new stuff going with y'all bc muse for older threads has, in a lot of cases, grown kinda stale at this point (and also i'm so much farther behind now thanks to the fucking mental breakdown in april that i'm still recovering from ajfksdhfs)
thank you all so much for your patience & understanding, and i'm sorry about having to do this. it's just gonna take a lot of pressure off of me while i'm finding my footing & energy to write again, it's got nothing to do with not liking an interaction or not wanting to thread with you ♡♡♡ i'm looking forward to starting a bunch of new stuff with everyone who's still interested in my little freak child!!
#my drafts are at 70 rn ok and it's my own fault but i have to finally do something about it#i'm not gonna go through them all tonight to clean things out but it will be happening soon#bc i really just. i want to start new things & i'm tired of not letting myself send asks or reply to asks/opens bc of all the older stuff#that i still owe asjhfkfsd#hope u all understand ♡♡♡ if there's anything at all that you'd REALLY like to keep just lmk#bc god knows there's a lot of stuff i don't really wanna drop lmaoasfkjsd#━━ ˟ ⊰ ✰ ooc ⋮ don't @ me.

lmao i asked bc, as you said in your tags, there was a certain way that it comes across as with how you’re talking about it, so i genuinely wondered bc i was gonna listen to it as well. i’ve been reading plenty of comments about it as well that mostly just lean on “aoty” “soty” “best album ever” and i get that these are (hopefully) exaggerated claims by stans, but i was seriously yet to see a decent comment about its musicality. it’s either about his face in the mv or his voice or the aesthetic of the mv. nothing on the lyricism or the instrumentations or its creativity or depth, so i was hesitant. i get liking it, but i doubt its being “the best”, so when i saw that your comments were the same, i began to wonder if this is another case of exaggerated praises and it’s just... meh at best. nothing new and all that. i am still gonna listen to it on my own ofc but, i guess, since i’m not really his fan, i’m not all excited. amazing debuts usually create tractions of their own, and i don’t hear much for this, but i ain’t judging based on that ofc. anyway, no need to feel attacked. as i said, i was genuinely curious so i asked. i’m well aware that i have ears. i was just genuinely curious about what you actually thought about it, what with your unhinged tags and whatnot. that’s all.
hard to gain traction when ur company announces ur album 2 weeks before it drops!
i was thrown by your wording and i still kind of am but i don't listen to music i don't enjoy and that's across the board for any artist bc....why would i do that lol and maybe ur not in the right circle being a casual fan/non-fan bc I've seen most ppl talk abt the musicality along with everything else 🤔
ik u said u were genuinely asking and i appreciate the explanation but im picking up on an overall unimpressed tone ("hopefully exaggerated" "doubt it being the best" ?) and it feels like u've made up ur mind about jaehyun and his music and ur asking me to give u a reason to change ur mind/care/be impressed but that's not my job ur free to make ur own opinion to me it seems ur going in with a half formed one already but it's music so like it or leave it either way is okay! ur under no obligation!
I'm sorry if being a kpop stan (im assuming...?) has made u feel disillusioned by solo releases tho i understand bc ppl are often overhyped by fans but jaehyun is a music enjoyer who did his homework and worked with artists he himself is a fan of and the payoff is really good music
overall ur ask is very uninformed which if ur not a fan is understandable but as a native english speaker myself listening to an album that is almost entirely in english from a nonnative speaker i have to say the lyrics are very well done they make sense create good metaphor and aren't superficially about balling or making a lot of money (i loathe to hear this often in eng versions of kpop songs lol) and jaehyun is credited as a lyricist on almost every song afaik
the production value is solid "can't get you" has an entire band accompaniment (the trumpet >>>>>) he wrote/worked on "flamin hot lemon" with emotional oranges (one of my fave artists actually <3) so that one is Excellent in every regard esp for a song inspired by cheetos lmao I've said numerous times that none of the songs sound like they were created with the intent of 30 secs going viral on tiktok (a very important differentiation for me) and one of my favorites parts about the title track "smoke" is the outro it's soooo good there's an unexpected bit of piano that he adlibs along with >>>> and the ballad "completely" has a Gorgeous piano backing to it (the lyrics on this one are also so beautiful)
my excitement about the release may have overwhelmed me so i might not have broken down each song beat by beat but rest assured i'm not wasting time on music i don't enjoy
in summation the album is good and on a separate unrelated note he just happens to be really hot ❤️
#i think ppl having commentary on everything else is valid considering he had a part in all of it#theres a lot of discussion about the aesthetic and mv etc etc bc he was in creative control#and it was well done#i dont think theres anything wrong with having that conversation bc it's art it should be all encompassing there should be a stunning visua#u can listen to music for so many reasons so i encourage conversations like that! ppl are excited!#and that doesn't deminish or take away from the quality of the songs#listen to the music u want to listen to u don't have to like or even listen to jaehyuns album but i did and i liked it for the music itself#replies#u caught me before i'd gone to sleep and now right when i woke up with this so i apologize if it's incoherent#i hope u do listen to it and enjoy it but if not thats okay ❤️

hey. hope this message doesn't bother you. I love you. I love your work. you are one of my favorite fic authors, I am absolutely obsessed with everything you write. reread everything ten times over, drarry or not, fluffy or angsty - even when it absolutely shatters my heart (e.g. for lack of wanting, SUCH a great fic btw i'm so obsessed with it). the four doors? life changing. two to lie and one to listen? engraved into my brain for eternity. what's mine is yours? what a ride holy shit, im VERY normal about it. wrapped? my comfort read. and so it goes.
if I could aggressively smother you with kudos and love I WOULD!!!
awhile ago you said that there's no such thing as "big deals" in fandom and I 100% agree but at the same time you are a big deal TO ME!!! not in the sense of any kind of hierarchy but purely based on the fact that I think you are such a cool person and your writing is amazing and poignant and your presence in fandom makes it so much better. it's been a pleasure following you here on tumblr and just reading your tags and posts.
idk I just think you rule. that's it. thank you for hanging with us. MWAH 💛
ahhhh anon sorry for leaving this message sitting in my inbox for a couple of days but !! i have zero idea how to react to this!! you're so kind!! thank you!! please discard any and all inclinations u have that i am a cool person bc i can assure you i am NOT!!
#tumblr tag essay time? tumblr tag essay time#why can't i do this in the main body of a post u ask? pure obnoxiousness ig idk#scarier when it's not greyed out and in a little whisper innit#1) anon i love and appreciate you + your kind words so so much but i rly cannot stress enough that literally nobody here is a big deal 😭#like i know u don't mean it in That Way but even so!!!#this is a hill i could write another 1k words about before i die on it again but i will spare u 😅#2) ur also v v kind to say the thing abt my presence in fandom#but unfortunately i'm coming to terms with the fact that my presence in fandom is v much on the sidelines#a non-presence#i'm embracing my role as the crotchety old hag who does not attend the functions#i have a hut in the woods and u can find me there (here in tumblr tags) muttering to myself#occasionally i'll wander into the town square (ao3) and present an unnerving thing i made from mud and twigs (a fic) and then i'll fuck off#that's about all i can handle in terms of group settings i think 😅#but the door to my hut (my DMs) is always open if u want to stop by!#3) i can't even begin to acknowledge all the nice things u said about my fics kjhsdf you are truly too generous 😭#let me smother YOU with love!!! cmere!!!#4) this is the second nice anon message i've had in the last couple weeks which is !!!!#anon(s) i'm kissing you wherever u consent to be kissed!!!#but ofc now i'm paranoid ppl will think i'm sending these to myself skdljf#can't stress enough how open my DMs are on here/twt/discord if ever u wanna chat in a way that i don't have to post publicly to reply to 😅#5) i'm soooo sorry about these tags#could have just said “thanks!” couldn't i#please put me right in the bin#anyway sorry again thank you again ilu very much ❤️

I think the "Billy should ditch the boar" takes comes from AM being the one route that breaks their self-insert fantasy. Flamey and Emile doing their stuff and the Jerry thing etc do not matter bcs its not being directly mean to YOU, the player, in YOUR story. Edel-chan is a very sad and traumatized girl that will ALWAYS love YOU no matter what you do and she will doodle YOU and squeak about rats n stuff, but you don't have to actually deal with any of her supposed trauma in a realistic way (+)
(cont) She will always be fine and ready to gush after you, the trauma is only a plot device to make her wary of other people that aren't you, and be attached to only you. What she does to randoms doesn't matter as long as she's nice to you. But the evil european barbarian boar dares to actually show his trauma and negative emotions around you, and make you uncomfy, and bring any sort of realism to your fantasy! how dare he! Not only that, but he admits he didn't like you at the beginning!!!(+) (cont) you, the player, isn't above other characters when it comes to him being rude because of his trauma and mental illness, and the story dares to show your avatar feeling sad and powerless instead of badass and cool. He won't listen to you until another character opens his eyes first, and even if you marry him he's still hearing voices and struggling with his issues, your love won't cure him!! Not only that, but AM is his story, not yours! (+) (cont) It relegates your self-insert to a supportive deuteragonist instead of the main hero the plot centers around. He will become The King and you will be just a religious leader, following the footsteps of the Evil Lizard Lady!! Obviously you don't want that!! this is your story, where you can dump all your anti-church IRL arguments into, and be a super cool baddass mercenary who never has to deal with negative emotions!! And that's why AM is the only FE16 route where I actually like Billy.
Sorry anon for the tardiness of the reply!
Yep, I feel like for both Dee and the evil lizard lady, at one point, they are unhappy/upset/angry and more or less negative at Billy - who is, in this situation, taken as the player.
I remember during the heights of 2020-2021 discourse people sending asks to other asking how can they like Rhea bcs she was meant to "u" and whatnot, and it's just... Self-insert at its finest?
But Billy - the character we see in Nopes, FEH and FE17, wouldn't feel like the player in those instances (because Billy the character would never pick the "uwu" option in the Holy Tomb, and Billy the character would understand and/or at least get how Dimitri doesn't want to talk right now) - so again, it's the same old question, who is Billy? An empty self insert who feels a lot of sad uwus when Rhea threatens to rip their heart out as they assist and support who swore to kill her because her ears are pointy and cries whenever Dimitri doesn't want to talk to them, or is Billy the character we see in other games, who shows more empathy and tries to understand people, and thus, wouldn't have been able to pick a certain route in FE16?
Lol I just remember now how some people didn't like Cyril or even Seteth because they didn't slobber over Billy - as the self-insert - in their first 5 lines unlike the rest of the cast ^^
Granted, this "YOU must be the most important person EVER" comes back in full force with the S-supports (tfw seteth doesn't mention his family to billy when they hold hands) and it reiterates something I always knew : Avatars were a mistake.
Parasocial maybe saved the franchise from turning into another F-Zero like saga, but damn if it nuked a lot in the process (and by, a lot, i mean coherence and characters networks).
#anon#replies#sorry i'm late lol#FE16#But yes to everything you said#AM is Dimitri's story as he learns to rely on people and not exclusively on u#meanwhile Claude who is supposed to open up to people spends most of time talking to you about his dreams than to talk the deers#and given how FE16 Billy isn't allowed to be a character and thus must always be static or nod#there are no interactions#i mean if billy was uwu me#the second clout said uwu church isolationism uwu new values that don't exclude people for being different#i'd say he's full of shit because those have never been the CoS's values and motto#AM Billy is a guide but doesn't push Dimitri#Dimitri follows the path himself because that's what he wants to#after he opened up to his friends who were always by his side#tbh as the game presents it AM is the second coming of post WoH Seiros and Willy#even without the hand holding it was supposed to end like this#but it went haywire and since Fodlan apparently loves its cycles#a world without Billy at its head is per this game not the best thing ever#but tbh I prefer this end to SS

hi guys <3 i need ur opinion on something :
if we were lovers, the fic I'll be posting around December, is 260 ish thousand words. It's long, but it's written in 6 parts, there will only be 6 uploads, here's the break down:
Act I : around 30k words Act II : around 50k words Act III : around 60k words Act IV : around 40k words Intermission : 8k/9k Act V : around 80k words
you might be thinking : "that's crazy" but each Act is broken down into 12 scenes so it's not too insane (I say, insanely). I do not want to post scene by scene because they range from under 1k to over 15k, I'm really intent on only having 6 "chapters"
now my dilemma is this : i would like to post bi-weekly so the fic would be posted every like monday and friday, let's say, so over a time span of 3 weeks. however, would it be better to post only once a week? with the uploads being so long, realistically most people won't read as soon as they come out, and won't read all in one go
i'm not saying I'll 100% go with what you'll pick lmao, bc I would much rather post twice a week to get it all out as soon as possible, but I love having that proximity with readers who comment after every upload, and I don't want people to feel left out simply bc they don't have time to read a 60k word update in 3 days (which is normal, i'm the irrational one for having 60k word updates)
#feel free to tell me what u think in the replies too or even my ask box#also this can be hypothetical u don't have to want to read the fic to give your opinion <3 i just want to know from a reader perspective#fic : if we were lovers#tomarry#billie speaks

#ohhhhhh my fucking god. omg. omg#i really need to learn to trust my own instincts about people#there's this dude - let's call him biff - who lives in my city#he's always been very consistent about staying in touch with me over the years even though we don't really have any shared interests#i met him when he was dating this girl i was friends with. then they broke up & he wanted to hang out with me#then he started dating someone else & they got married and had a kid#and after a while he stopped messaging me (fine by me)... UNTIL#i posted on fb the other day that i was starting the process of quitting everything Meta#and that people should comment if they wanted my contact info elsewhere#after making this post i thought 'hmmm maybe i should have restricted the audience to the only people i actually WANT to stay in touch with'#but it was too late. biff had already messaged me and asked for my number#stupidly i gave it to him. he (a german) joked 'still no german number i see?'#(it is clearly a german number. also i live in fckn germany. and have done so for 7 years. how the hell would i not have a german number?)#then he realized that & added me on whatsapp (kinda silly bc i explicitly said i'm going to quit the whole metaverse eventually but oh well)#first message: 'how u doing?' this man is in his 40s and has still never learned to type properly#second message: he said that he (singular) had recently moved to a new apartment and was not doing great#which makes me think that maybe he's gotten divorced and that's why he's suddenly so eager to reach out to me again#and he added apropos nothing 'but the good thing is that now i'll finally get to see the harry potter movies!'#ummm... great? fuck that transphobe but have fun i guess? what a weird thing to mention#third message was - just fucking WAIT FOR IT - 'what do u think about what's going on in the US recently? are you planning on going back?'#if y'all know me by now you know that this kind of question drives me bonkers#so i replied 'no i'm never going back. i live in germany. kinda sick of people asking me that. I LIVE HERE'#and i just... godddd my intuition is so depressingly good sometimes.#the moment his name popped up in my messages i had this sinking feeling of 'why did i give him my contact info'#and then what do you know... in his next two messages alone there were at least three minor red flags#NOTE TO SELF: TRUST YOUR FUCKING INSTINCT#why haven't i learned this yet? i do not need a 'valid reason' to softly let someone slip out of my life#cosmo gyres#personal#tag rant
