If I could pluck out your eyes to collect in a basket like fresh berries, I would. If only you had several that grew back to be replaced, after I mashed and crushed up the old ones into jam for my toast or just bit into your corneas like grapes with seeds to spit out.

Stop looking at them. Look only at ME! ME! ME! ME!

What do I have to do to finally catch your eye? Do you want to kiss up the scars when I slit open my wrists, so you can feel superficial accomplishment? I would let you drink the wine in my veins if you had higher tolerance for it.

Why can't you shower me with the affection you once did? I was a dying houseplant and your love revived me, but its gone from daily to only seeing you if I'm lucky to get a hold of you, otherwise you'd be fine leaving me to rot, surely. Did I wear your patience thin? Botanicals like me take time to bloom, too much for your liking it seems. You got tired, or you realized what you were getting yourself into and chickened out.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry I'm so fucking needy. I need your voice, as sweet as agave, to whisper what I want to hear, I need your body in the way we handled the fervor of the spring, wet as the rain. I crumble into decolored nothingness more and more when you ignore me, for those who are "better" than me, the ones that'll actually better you, in comparison to what you had with me.

I would strangle you to hear the calming low buzz of you choking on your own blood, begging for mercy and finally bringing yourself to admit you love me, you love me and I'm your favorite and your one and only forever and ever.

You realized you ingested a poison with no easy antidote. I think you only keep me around to see how you can get out; don't you have guilt about tossing out a reminder of your own failure? I'm sorry I'm this way, I never asked for the germination of my miserable existence in the first place. I don't know what to do if I'm not the prized heirloom of your garden, I'll rip my own petals off and shove them down your throat if you might at least get a taste of my wrath and like it. I wilt more and more the seconds your attention isn't on me.

Wasn't there a bountiful harvest on both ends? Shared bites of forbidden fruit; you're damned along with me and I hate to see you trying to escape it. Don't you want us to drown together? You still fake some semblance of tolerance, maybe out of pity. It's all performative: oh, but at least you're still cute sometimes, when you're everything but yourself.

How about I bake you to finally get the good parts of you that I missed? You're like poison ivy to me in how you irritate me, but at the same time I can't get enough, it's even more maddening to be without that feeling that makes me want to scratch my skin off. You're not allowed to spread, I want to be the sole victim of your infestation. Don't fucking go to those other people. They don't deserve you.

I'll make sure your very essence becomes part of my blood if I have to, to make you stay with me forever and never fucking leave.

🌞 do you have any little sso headcanons you'd be comfortable sharing? or just one perhaps? 👉👈💕

thank you for the ask anon!! it was super sweet of you :)

-mario didnt believe in magic at all before coming to jorvik, and he and elizabeth had a friendly rivalry for a long time ("you know i could probably help reinforce the observatory bridge" "what, with a spell?" "no, with wood ✨") and once mario actually saw it for the first time he went to elizabeth's house and had a "wtaf is my life" session with (heavily alcoholic) tea

-in that same vein, i think that it probably gets very lonely up on the mountaintop especially with elizabeth not coming up anymore. so mario and the spymaster spend a lot of time together now and are friends and neighbors, and the squirrels sometimes help mario with his chores!

-oldie but a goodie, the secret ufo belonged to fripp

-horses born in jorvik naturally are more attuned to their bonded riders and have a little more intelligence than horses born in other parts of the world. this has caused a lot of debate over whether or not jorvegian born horses should be allowed in competitions. this isn't a huge issue though because horses born on jorvik rarely leave jorvik. and horses that come to jorvik end up developing that stuff naturally 🩵

-ive posted abt this before but i really like it: the in-universe reason why questlines are so inconsistent and spotty after all the retcons and plot changes is actually because MC is just now awakening their moon circle abilities and isn't trained with them yet, causing them to see into alternate realities and timelines. which explains why sometimes you can see anne and lisa at events before you save them, or why sometimes anne has been missing for a week, or a month, or a year

-derek, justin, and maya are close friends :) they're all in the same group of 'dealt with weird magic stuff and care about the people involved, but aren't/are no longer involved themselves' so i think they would all bond over that! plus with maya having worked with the moorlands for so long, and them all being around the same age i like to think maya and justin grew up together, and im pretty sure derek moved to jorvik during ssl (so highschool) so im not sure how he would have met them...!! maybe through just delivering stuff to moorland or through the soul riders' shenanigans??

-erissa and madison are best friends :)

thats all i have off the top of my head!! im sure i have loads more ive forgotten...maybe ill just have to make more posts like this when i remember them haha ^^

Genuine thought as a fellow trans dude, I’ve seen a lot of (obviously non-serious) questions on other blogs about characters’ genitals such as “how does it look like?” and similar, and I think we all know & understand that such questions are extremely inappropriate to ask and (I hope) no one would actually go around asking these questions irl. Idk, I think we should treat trans characters just like cis ones, without any special “precautions”, so to normalise them and not make cis people treat them like fragile boxes, a thing which happens to a lot of us irl. Hope this doesn’t come off as an attack or anything lol.

no worries, i didn't take this as an attack at all. i actually agree with you, that's why i mentioned feeling conflicted about it and also mentioned that i've changed my stance on how i felt about handling Noel and Clementine in game and in explicit intimate scenes.

however, for me the problem comes from the fact that people... don't ask these kinds of questions about cis characters? i suppose people do get cheeky "who is the biggest 🤪" asks but i would hardly compare the two. to be a bit crude, no one is going to be asking if a cis character has a dick or not, or "what does it look like". of course it's natural for people to be curious, and i honestly encourage the open discussion and am happy to see trans bodies being talked about more in a positive way, but not everyone is going to be comfortable with it due to the inescapable transphobia online and in the community. sending me that kind of ask is like sending out an invitation for a debate or a discussion that i don't necessarily want to have. i also just don't think people should default to asking a random IF author on tumblr dot com to describe what bottom growth looks like.

and with most of these asks typically coming from someone who is anonymous, i have no way of truly knowing what the tone is, what their intentions are or why this is being asked - is it another trans person? or maybe someone who is just genuinely curious? or, more likely in my experience, is it someone who is going to immediately follow up this message with something transphobic after i answer? do i want to roll the dice and find out?

so while i agree with what you're saying, it's important to consider the context and the reality we live in. the IF community is not kind to trans people or trans characters. and as a trans person, my first priority is protecting myself and my mental health. so what i mean when i say "precautions," is that those precautions are for me, because i've had to deal with transphobic harassment here for years now, and i try to mitigate it as much as i can. it's also for my personal comfort - again, to be blunt, i'm simply just not comfortable discussing a trans character's genitals with anonymous strangers on the internet. it makes me feel vulnerable.

also i do want to say i didn't mean for any of that to come across as a dig at other authors - if you're comfortable answering those kinds of questions, that's really only something you can decide for yourself. like i said, this is just coming from my own experiences in IF and for my own personal comfort - i have previously talked a lot about trans stuff and gender and sexuality here, when i'm feeling up to it, but it is something that is very draining for me and can also be very upsetting.

basically: i do agree that it's important not to other trans characters or treat them any differently than cis characters, but i also think there are ways to do it that don't require me answering invasive questions or questions that i don't feel comfortable with as a real life trans person, you know what i mean?

Someone I know irl keeps on talking about queer discourse and shipcourse to me at school sometimes and all I can think is "I don't know any of these terms I have a job and bills to pay"

Yesterday at the high school I was in for this art teacher and they all had like projects they were gonna present to work on in Google classroom, so like many days as a substitute teacher it was quiet and I mostly just sat at the desk and read. But then this one kid in my peripheral vision was looking at me and when I glanced over her laughed a little. And I looked away cuz I was like whatever maybe he was whispering smth w his friends.

But then he says "I have a question"

"Yeah?"

"What two colors make purple?"

"Oh. Red and blue"

"Thank you... I appreciate the no judgment answer"

I didn't even think about it lol

[rossothelioma]

what is your hottest take 🔥 perhaps on a fandom you’ve since left maybe

i have seen a lot of ppl my age learn lessons in the past couple of years about communicating to ppl online and in fandom that i learned when i was around thirteen. is that my fault for being extremely overly online as a child? ive decided it's everyone else's problem, actually. sorry.

Idrc if you wanna find the politics in every piece of media you consume but personally i dont really care to all the time like idk. Like idk sometimes i just wanna enjoy shit w/o constantly thinking about the underlying politics or whatever? Sometimes its hard to ignore if its super rw based but still, a lot of other shit i just feel like im investing more energy into this shit than was intended for most ppl like idk. The underlying political implications of spirited away. Idk i just dont really care lol
