vil schoenheit with an otaku s/o
Tumblr media
.
I felt like we needed something on this blog with my bias, Vil. So I took it upon myself to write something.
This comes from my love of pairing otakus and nerds with ultra-glamorous people. Vil/Idia is also something I enjoy, but as this blog is catered to reader-insert content, have this.
If anyone has any Vil requests I may prioritize them....
.
Summary: [Name] is the s/o of Vil Schoenheit and an otaku who challenges the shut-in Ignihyde Housewarden for his title. They have a fixation on games and often find themselves obsessed with them. What does Vil think of this?
TW/CW: None
Notes: established relationship, they/them pronouns for the reader, the reader is implied to be Ramshackle Prefect/Yuu, the reader is younger than Vil (lightly implied), explicitly post B5
Guest Stars: Rook Hunt. Neige LeBlanche (implied/referenced), Idia Shroud (mentioned)

✧・゚: ✧・゚: ✧・゚: ✧・゚: ✧・゚: ✧・゚: ✧・゚: ✧・゚:
Vil Schoenheit
Vil wasn't always so open to dating someone who obsesses over fiction and 2D media to this degree.
Idia always irked him a bit, but maybe it was the tablet.
Honestly, he still doesn't really understand.
Vil Schoenheit is the commodity, not the consumer.
He respects his s/o for their dedication, though.
The only criticisms he has are if they do not take care of themselves properly (like neglecting food or sleep for games).
Vil has come to know random things about whatever anime or game his s/o likes and picks up special items when opportunities arise at work, albeit without drawing attention to it publicly.
What Vil wasn't prepared for was [Name]'s friendship with Rook.
It's a blessing and a curse to be in their presence.
He's thrilled they get along... but once they start yapping... it never ends and is typically about Vil himself or worse Neige LeBlanche.
Vil often pretends that he doesn't hear those chats.
He finds the praise from his s/o nice, though.
He's relieved they aren't one of his creeper fans.
Be assured that he did some interrogating early on for safety.
Vil appreciates that they live outside the spotlight.
It means that he can be "normal" with them.
It's nice to just be "Vil" and not some mega-star.
Vil values that even though they love his work, they also love him as a person, the Vil that the rest of the world isn't privy to.
Vil grimaced at the sight of his darling partner who was buried in blankets on the couch trying to "grind" for an "SSR" in some game about idols. He didn't pretend to understand such concepts but he was certainly watching it happen before him: [Name] was ignoring the world for games.
He sighed but he knew he chose this.
[Name] gave that tablet-wielding Idia Shroud a run for his title, surely. They were a shut-in as any otaku was, keeping their darling face away from view and covered by baggy clothing. They took poor care of themselves when "banners" were yielding?
That was what got on Vil's nerves the most. The utter disregard for their health in favor of fictional men and digital items.
"[Name]," Vil said, trying to get his beloved's attention.
They did not answer.
That's alright, they probably did not hear him.
"[Name]," he repeated a bit more urgently.
They remained focused on their screen, unaware of the person standing beside their cozy setup. Vil wasn't sure if he was offended or not. The housewarden sighed before using the only trick he had up his sleeve at the moment.
"[Full Name]."
"HUH?!?"
[Name] whipped around like they had heard gunshots and were faced with the radiant beauty of their boyfriend.
Oh! It was Vil!
"Sorry, Vil," [Name] offered, looking down for a moment to ensure that the story was paused, "I guess I wasn't paying attention."
"And that," Vil told them, "is a crime in and of itself, I look lovely today and you should appreciate all beauty that graces your eyes."
Vil smiled, posing in a way that made it seem natural. A hand on his hip asserted that Vil held the power in this room, even when it was not his dorm. Pomefiore's housewarden was too charismatic for words sometimes.
"You know, dear, like Rook always says and does..." Vil continued, pausing for a moment at the thought of his vice housewarden, "Though maybe not so enthusiastically as him."
"I love you so much, V, but I also have so many pulls I need to do to get this SSR," [Name] told Vil, tapping into the next part of the event they were working on, "This. is. why. I. exist. And Idia put the support card I told... begged him to."
[Name] had ventured to Ignihyde the other day, Ortho accompanying them, to beg the Game Master to put his level 105 maxed stat card for support. It was a terrifying journey that incurred the wrath of the heavens (Idia screamed in such a shrill voice that he nearly gave [Name] tinnitus) but it was worth it. The Game Master ceded and the support for the battle was won! Huzzah!
"I can see that this means a lot if you cried to Shroud about it, but you... " Vil trailed off until he noticed a familiar bag by the side of the couch, "I'm sorry, darling, do you have a guest?"
"Eh, do I have a guest?" [Name] asked Vil.
With that, Vil was about to launch into another lecture about how they should watch their house and remember if people were present, but he was cut off by the entry of one (1) Rook Hunt wearing something he would be skinned for if he were at Pomefiore with his hair tangled as if he fell asleep half smothered into something, hair and all. Vil could believe his eyes, but he didn't want to.
"Do I even want to know?" Vil asked him.
Rook raised his hands in a shrug that felt a tad passive-aggressive.
"I'm not going to ask then, neither of you has the answer that keeps my sanity alive," Vil said, sighing as he closed his eyes to avoid questioning his vice housewarden.
"We're doing this for you, Roi du Poison!" Rook told him.
"In what world does this game have anything to do with me?"
Vil was floored by the implication that he was familiar with one of these idol-ish games. He had worked on them once or twice, sure, but that was hardly the same as being a fan, a player.
"I thought this as well, but [Name] explained it to me!"
And... Rook was enthused. Yay. Time for theatrics.
"Rook, I'm not in the mood for theatrics, try to be concise."
"Of course, My Queen!"
"Rook-senpai did you make food?" [Name] asked him, cutting into the conversation.
"It is cooking now!" Rook assured with a (slightly scary) smile.
"I thought you..." Vil trailed off once more, it wasn't worth it.
Rook was here, he wasn't. [Name] knew, they didn't. At least Epel wasn't also here trying to get muscular at a dangerous speed (again). In the end, the hunter had agreed to cease his shenanigans, but there were sure to be more theatrics and tomfoolery ahead. It might seem impossible, but Vil could sense it.
"Do you two wish to tell me what has you so involved in this game? And how in all of this Twisted Wonderland it pertains to me?" the housewarden asked after a moment sitting down on the Ramshackle couch after a moment of deliberation and joining his vice housewarden and the love of his young life.
"It has everything to do with you!" [Name] told him, managing to tap away at the rhythm game while speaking which Vil would never admit impressed him, "I'm doing this because I love you.... and the cards. But mostly for you, V!"
"It's about your honor, Beautiful Vil!" Rook added.
About his honor? How was this about his honor?
Vil sighed as he turned to Rook. His hair was still a nest on his head, one fit for a bird. His golden hair color aided that appearance.
"I really wish you would fix your hair, Rook..."
Rook shook his head, expression saddening if only for a moment.
"Non, non. There is no time for it when your honor is at stake!"
And... Yeah, there's no stopping Rook now. Vil admitted to that defeat as much as it pained him, a couple of years of friendship had taught him not to... Well, to be crude, not to fuck with that.
"Yeah!!" [Name] agreed, "We need to focus on this. And... Win!"
Oh, good. Lovely. His lover was also not backing down.
Vil sighed as he leaned closer to [Name], a show of his own tiredness that he seemed to neglect the wrinkles to his clothing that could form. His face close to theirs, he watched their game, skimming the dialogue of the stylized men on the screen and trying to parse through why the player seemed to have a hoard of 167 men at their disposal while also being a 17-year-old orphan with dead famous parents who left them a company in their will.
Maybe I should have paid more attention when Idia tried to explain his visual novel collection to me...
Vil continued to watch, slowly feeling himself grow just a tad invested in the story. He cursed it, wanting to say he was above falling for the media he seldom worked in... And here he was, wondering what the MC was going to do now that one of the beautiful young men had been kidnapped by some kind of underground association of famous men. He was still a bit unclear about that last part.
"This is why, V," [Name] told him, tapping the arrow on the screen to reveal a character Vil had not seen in the section [Name] was reading.
They were tall blond with deep blue eyes wearing a shimmering gown and extremely high heels.
Vil looked back to [Name].
"Everyone is saying this character is the in-game equivalent of you," they told him, "So I wanted to help them... win against..."
A voice echoed from Rook's phone that sounded eerily similar to a certain raven-haired boy's voice. But it wasn't, Vil was certain of it. There was a certain energy to Neige's voice that this person did not have, a kind of sweetness that made Vil's stomach churn a bit.
"The you-coded guy is going to be my strongest card and he will win in the polls! Rook and I will make sure of it!" [Name] told Vil, "Also if he does lose I still have to do a favor for Idia-senpai so I really don't wanna lose."
The fact that [Name] was willing to go to such lengths for his apparent honor was heartwarming to Vil if not a tad silly. Since the events of the competition, Vil had rethought some of his prior-made statements, but it seemed that [Name] and Rook both wanted to assure him of his worth and that was... sweet, honestly. A little weird considering they chose an anime game to do so, but sweet nonetheless.
He smiled at [Name], pressing a kiss to their cheek.
"Thank you, my love," he told them before looking over at Rook, "And you as well, I suppose, Rook."
"...Might this lessen the pain I caused at the VDC?" Rook asked.
"I'm no longer angry but perhaps," Vil told the hunter.
"And it was all my idea!" [Name] cheered, glowing with pride.
"Oui, your shared love is most radiant~" Rook practically sang, pausing his rhythm game (he has a full combo and SS rank) to stand and gesture boldly to Vil and [Name].
"I know, it's why I love them so much," Vil mused.
Yes, having a significant other with differing interests had perks, sometimes. Vil had to admit that every once in a while, [Names] hobby was cute, on them anyway... Vil wasn't so sure he could handle it if they came to school as a tablet like Idia.
.
Imagine the rest for yourself~

School Stories: Crush
Tumblr media
Gojo Satoru/Original Female Character Pre-Relationship, Bickering, Teenage crush, Obliviousness 2372 words Also posted on AO3 Summary: Suguru comes to the conclusion that Satoru might have developed a little crush on a certain someone...
Honestly, I had the first part of this written for soooo long but I just hadn't been able to finish writing it for some reason (ʃᵕ̩̩ ᵕ̩̩) I did end up sort of finishing it now, though it's shorter than I had initially planned, but alas. Should still be fun! Hopefully!
(Also, you may notice in this story that I mention a little something about how Gojo and Geto met that is actually all my own personal headcanon lmao. I don't think there's anything in the manga that necessarily contradicts this, but let me know otherwise! Basically, my headcanon is that they actually met a couple of years pre-Jujutsu Tech by running into each other, and Gojo immediately saw Geto's potential with his Six Eyes and started bugging him about it. So Gojo was the one who recruited Geto to become a sorcerer, and they eventually started spending a lot of time together and became friends, then ended up joining Jujutsu Tech together.
...idk I just like the idea that they knew each other for longer before everything went to shit, it hurts more lol)
Anyway, enjoy this silly little fic!
Tumblr media
2006
It all started when Suguru came back to school from this one spring break.
...Well, okay, maybe it didn’t exactly start right then, but it sure got him noticing it more.
There were still a couple of days left in spring break before the new school year started, but Suguru had already come back to the school after spending time with his family. And as much as being with his family was nice and all... he was just really glad to be back in Jujutsu Tech.
So his first order of the day was to find Satoru so they could catch up—but the problem was that Satoru wasn’t at the dorms, and Suguru couldn’t sense him anywhere on school grounds. Well, Suguru had actually come back a little earlier this time around, and he hadn’t really let Satoru know in advance, so he simply pulled out his phone to text his white-haired friend and see what he was up to.
Suguru: I just got back Suguru: where u at
Suguru started making himself comfortable in his room, waiting for a reply. A couple of minutes later, his phone pinged with a text message.
Satoru: out
Suguru snorted—well, no shit. Satoru had too much energy to stay cooped up for long, so Suguru regularly received updates from his friend’s random outings—‘Suguru, I just bought new glasses,’ or ‘Suguru, they’ve got new Digimon figurines for sale,’ or ‘Suguru, I just got a girl’s number, and she has a friend!!’
...But, most often these days, Satoru’s messages seemed to revolve around one subject in particular.
‘Suguru, Wakatsuki and I went shopping, I got you a hat,’ he would text. Or ‘Suguru, Wakatsuki won’t let me pick out her karaoke songs,’ or ‘Suguru, Wakatsuki just fell asleep in my room watching a movie what do I do??’
If Satoru and Wakatsuki had unexpectedly spent a lot of time together last summer, it seemed that they were intent on doing the exact same thing whenever school went on break. And judging by how long Satoru had taken to answer his latest message, Suguru guessed the other boy was pretty busy right now.
Suguru: you out on a date
There was a pause before the next message came along.
Satoru: I’m with Wakatsuki
Suguru snorted.
Suguru: on a date
The next reply came hilariously quickly.
Satoru: no
Suguru snickered to himself.
Suguru: if you say so
Honestly, how had they even gotten here in the first place?
Last summer, Suguru had gone back home fully expecting Satoru to do the same—that the other boy would be heading back to the Gojo Estate during break. But then a few days after he’d arrived at his parents’ house, Suguru had discovered that Satoru had not, in fact, left school at all. After some prodding, the white-haired teenager had claimed he would much rather stay there than be forced to handle his family’s nagging face-to-face again, and had even rejected the idea to come stay with Suguru instead.
And that had worried Suguru a bit. Satoru, left all by himself at the school with no one around to rein him in?
A recipe for disaster.
Even worse was when he’d found out that Wakatsuki had also not left the school for some reason, and considering how she and Satoru had constantly been at each other’s throats during the first half of the school year...
A recipe for an even worse disaster.
Suguru had tried to assuage his fears by telling himself that Yaga would still be around, and that their sensei had actually developed a knack for keeping those two from throttling each other. But still, Suguru kept offering Satoru to join him during that summer, which Satoru continued to refuse; in the few times Suguru had brought his white-haired friend to meet his parents... it hadn’t turned out very well. Satoru was too different, too alien to get along with Suguru’s very normal parents, the small town they lived in too tiny and boring to hold Gojo Satoru for long.
So Satoru had stayed at the school all throughout the past summer, but at least he had promised to keep Suguru up to date with frequent text updates. That had provided some semblance of comfort to Suguru as he kept receiving reassurances that Satoru hadn’t blown up the entire school from sheer boredom, but then...
‘ugh, Yaga is sending me on a mission with Wakatsuki of all people,’ Satoru had texted him at one point. ‘I don’t need all the dead weight.’
‘Satoru,’ Suguru had replied. ‘Play nice.’
Suguru had been... a little worried. Mostly about Wakatsuki, because Satoru didn’t exactly know the meaning of the word moderation and Wakatsuki herself held no qualms about provoking one of the strongest sorcerers of the modern age despite their, ahem, differences in strength. And as Satoru’s texts complaining about the mission eventually ceased after half a day or so, Suguru had only ended up even more worried about what might have happened when those two were finally left alone with each other.
Really, Suguru had expected the worst.
But then a day later, Satoru had finally texted him back saying that the mission was done—and yes, Wakatsuki was still alive.
So that had been a relief. Satoru hadn’t accidentally squashed Wakatsuki while fighting, and those two had managed to survive being alone with each other for longer than Suguru had ever thought possible.
And as it turned out, they had done more than just survive being around each other, but Suguru would only come to understand what that meant after he’d returned from that year’s summer break. Because as he stayed with his parents during summer, Suguru had only vaguely started to notice that Satoru’s messages were slowing down as the days went on, almost like the other boy had found something to actually occupy his time with on a regular basis.
That something? Wakatsuki herself. And when Suguru finally returned from summer break, he’d been shell shocked to enter Satoru’s room to find them both there, watching a movie together.
So, something had happened during that summer, something that had eventually led to Satoru and Wakatsuki agreeing on some sort of truce between themselves. And that truce quickly evolved as they eventually became friends—real, honest, constantly bickering, friends. A true miracle had happened last year, and when Satoru wasn’t spending time with Suguru, then he sure was spending time with her.
...Spending time with her in a strange way sometimes... and this spring break hadn’t been any different.
“...I’m gonna take it off,” a voice was heard out in the hallway, and Suguru perked up. It was a girl’s voice, a familiar one—and accompanying it was a very familiar cursed energy signature.
“No, you lost the bet,” Satoru’s voice was heard. Suguru jumped up to his feet, moving towards the door.
“I’ve been wearing it all day,” Wakatsuki said. “I’m done.”
“No.”
“I’m taking it off—hey!”
“You’re going to wear it all the way to bed!”
“Says who?!”
“Says me!”
As Suguru popped his head out of his room, his eyes immediately spotted the two other teenagers standing in the middle of the hallway—and the ridiculous Digimon hat that Satoru had undoubtedly made Wakatsuki wear.
“You two look like you’re having fun,” Suguru greeted them with a grin.
“Yo, Suguru!” Satoru greeted back—as Wakatsuki sent the white-haired teenager a half-hearted glare. Her hands were raised up near her head, probably to take the silly hat off, but Satoru had both of her wrists held in his own hands to keep her from doing just that.
“Lemme go,” she grumbled, trying to pull her hands away—but Satoru was not budging. So she huffed, leaning backwards enough so she could raise a leg and half-heartedly kick Satoru’s side.
He still did not budge.
“Am I interrupting something?” Suguru asked, his smile turning sly.
Satoru seemed oblivious to what Suguru was trying to imply, so the other boy simply grinned some more. “Wakatsuki is just being a sore loser, that’s all.”
“I’ve kept my side of the agreement!” Wakatsuki called, and Satoru finally released her wrists. Wakatsuki did not waste any time grabbing the hat off her head and chucking it straight at Satoru’s face, then promptly rushing off to her own room. “Keep that Digimon freak away from me!”
It was hard to take her seriously when she stuck her tongue out at Satoru before closing herself inside her room, the Digimon hat harmlessly thudding against the wooden surface after Satoru had thrown it back at her.
Suguru snickered to himself.
...What a fun date it must have been...
-
“Satoru,” Suguru called, trying to contain his smirk. “You’re drooling.”
Satoru blinked, finally realizing he was staring.
Staring at what, in particular?
Wakatsuki stretching out her legs as they warmed up for class, of course. She had worn shorts today, probably due to the increasingly warm weather, and it wasn’t hard for Suguru to notice where Satoru’s eyes had been glued to, even behind his sunglasses.
“Shut up,” Satoru suddenly said with a huff, immediately turning around and starting to stretch out his arms despite not really needing to.
Also, the tips of his ears were definitely red.
Suguru snorted, and from the other side of the training grounds, his eyes met Shoko’s to exchange a knowing glance with her.
(It seemed that Wakatsuki hadn’t realized it either...)
“Satoru,” Suguru half-whispered, his smile turning devious. “Do you have a crush?”
Satoru still refused to turn around, just as his ears refused to stop shining red. “S-shut up. I do not.”
Oh, he totally did.
Suguru would have to admit that his previous teasing of Satoru over his, ahem, relationship with Wakatsuki had been mostly just that—teasing. It was kind of funny to think about how close those two had gotten despite the rocky start they’d had, and that they actually enjoyed spending all that time together now without complaint.
But to think that Satoru had developed an actual crush on her?
Hilarious.
Wasn’t Wakatsuki the one Satoru had deemed a complete weakling on day one? And yet, now here he was, desperately trying to pretend he hadn’t just been ogling said weakling in the middle of jujutsu class because it turned out he had a crush.
...Honestly, how hadn’t Wakatsuki realized it yet? Satoru wasn’t exactly subtle, and they spent a lot of time together. Sure, Suguru himself had only just realized it... but he was pretty sure that, in the back of his mind, he’d known that for a while now.
It really was that obvious.
Throughout the years they’d known each other, Suguru had watched Satoru try to woo quite a few girls by now—and it was always a trainwreck. Satoru’s good looks were forced to the heavy lifting for him like 90% of the time, because when Satoru opened his mouth, he was as overly confident as he was a socially awkward mess. Suguru found it hard to miss whenever Satoru became interested in someone (he usually became three times as loud and obnoxious, for starters), though he’d have to say that Satoru’s arrogance usually covered up for his total inability to talk to other people like a normal human being—the Gojo clan’s fault, of course—so maybe it went unnoticed by everyone else.
...But also, Suguru thought Wakatsuki was smart.
Had she noticed it but was ignoring it? Suguru didn’t think so—given how those two were always bickering with each other, he didn’t think Wakatsuki would be able to act normally around him if she knew that Satoru kept ogling her in class.
But... did she maybe have a crush on him?
Suguru hummed to himself, thoughtful, as he watched Satoru try to get a rise out of the girl in question. Like a boy tugging on a girl’s pigtails to get her attention, almost predictably so—but what did Wakatsuki feel about it?
It was hard to tell, to be honest. Wakatsuki was a lot more guarded than Satoru was, and Suguru didn’t know her that well. Suguru knew that she enjoyed spending time with Satoru for sure, but how far did that go?
...Hm...
Suguru watched as Yaga scolded Satoru and Wakatsuki—Wakatsuki having been successfully riled up by the white-haired teenager. Then he snorted when Satoru turned around and Wakatsuki raised a leg to literally kick his butt, before scampering off to hide behind Shoko so Yaga wouldn’t scold them again.
...Suguru would not be opposed to playing matchmaker if needed to, actually. Satoru needed someone who could keep him grounded—someone who didn’t really care about his status of being Gojo Satoru, and someone who wouldn’t let his strength get to his head. Suguru himself was trying to do his part in that, and the Gojo Satoru he’d first run into those three and something years ago was certainly not the same Gojo Satoru that existed now.
‘You’re strong, actually,’ Satoru had told him back then, and even though it had technically been a compliment, Satoru’s tone of voice had made it sound like a backhanded compliment instead. ‘You should become a sorcerer.’
Satoru had definitely mellowed out a bit from the arrogant boy he’d first met back then, and Suguru had worked hard to steer him away from the asshole that the Gojo clan had raised him to be.
...So it was kind of funny that the other person helping with that now seemed to be someone on the exact opposite end of the spectrum of strength. The fact that Satoru had been able to overlook Wakatsuki’s ‘weakness’ spoke volumes to how much he’d grown, and the thought of those two getting together now amused Suguru to no end.
Maybe one day, once Suguru was sure that the crush was mutual. After all, he didn’t want to ruin the careful balance that had been struck between Satoru and Wakatsuki last year in case he was mistaken. Maybe it would be better to just leave them be and see where they ended up by themselves...
...for now. There would be plenty of time for some matchmaking later, after all.

Hello <3
I am currently 20, in the process of enhancing every aspect of my life so I would really appreciate if you could generously list your resources for self-improvement in general.
And one more question, how to make people take me more seriously? I am quite the youngest member in my family and everyone have always been so over-protective of me that they always see me as this little girl even though I am almost a grown woman lol.
Thanks!
Thanks for your question. I commend you for wanting to invest in yourself and self-improvement.
The resources I use to shape my mindset toward success are a mixture of books, podcasts, subliminals, and direct revelation from God. I'll break these parts down for you:
✧༺♥༻∞✧༺♥༻∞✧༺♥༻∞✧༺♥༻∞✧༺♥༻∞✧༺♥༻∞
Books:
There are a lot of books out that deal with the topic of self-improvement and you are almost guaranteed to find some that will be able to help you in whichever area of your life you wish to get better at. The key, when it comes to these books, is that you have to find ones that you know you can action realistically in your life. Theory can be energizing and inspirational, but it is ultimately futile if you are unable to put the gained knowledge into reality.
You must seek books that are practical in their way of describing how to succeed in whatever subject they touch upon and focus exclusively on that specific book so that you may action its commands and see real results in your life.
I'll give you 5 books that I've used throughout the year that have helped me mold my character in meaningful and practical ways:
She Comes First, by Brian Nox.
Can't Hurt Me, by David Goggins.
The Alter Ego Effect, by Todd Herman.
Stop People Pleasing, by Patrick King.
Fabulosity, by Kimora Lee Simmons.
Podcasts:
Podcasts are a good way of keeping your mind "fed" constantly with content and knowledge from others. I use them not just for knowledge, but also for entertainment. I enjoy podcasts that deal with politics, human psychology and behavior, societal phenomena, travel and culture, business, success life stories, and even some niche topics of interest.
Whatever podcasts you choose to listen to will be a very personal choice. My rule of thumb is to not waste time listening to someone just because they seem authoritative in the field of self-improvement if the messages they are putting forward do not resonate with you. It's ok to be picky with this type of content.
Subliminals:
This is something that I've never touched upon before directly on my blog, but it is something that I've been digging into a lot lately and I've found has been positively impacting my life.
Subliminals are audio messages that we play in the background while we do other activities. The concept behind them is that our subconscious mind can pick up and internalize the messages being played and therefore can help in reprogramming our own internal self-concept and beliefs. It can help you manifest things because you genuinely believe that they are possible for you, rather than pretending.
Subliminals are extremely powerful because if utilized correctly they can help you shape your entire personality and perception of yourself towards one that is more self-loving, positive, and confident. It can help us erase the damage of harmful things we've internalized throughout the years and replace them with thoughts that are working in our favor.
If you or anyone else from the blog would like for me to dive deeper into this subject and share some of the subliminal that have helped me (including my own creations), please let me know!
God:
This part is simply all about having communion with God. I've found out that in the periods that I'm away from him and that I do not take our relationship seriously, I become an easier target for spiritual attacks and also less in tune with my spiritual gifts. It's hard to hear from him when my spiritual life is filled with so much baggage that does not come from him. And whether you are aware of it, everything around us is spiritual in one way or another: the music that we listen to, the people we spend time with, the places we live, the content we consume, the things we allow others to speak into our lives, etc.
It's important that I read my Bible, pray, and worship without ceasing. God purifies our spirits and removes bondages this way. He gives us a renewed mind full of discernment and peace. We can hear from him more clearly and be led through a path of prosperity.
This is something that I need to get back on with him, as I have fallen off throughout the years. But understanding that you do not have to make life alone and that investing in your spiritual life can only tenfold your riches in the physical realm is crucial for us to live a life of purpose and success.
✧༺♥༻∞✧༺♥༻∞✧༺♥༻∞✧༺♥༻∞✧༺♥༻∞✧༺♥༻∞
I hope this list was helpful, and if you or other people would like to delve deeper into any of these or other subjects, please let me know.

I was searching thru tumblr for modern atwow au crumbs but I found so LITTLE content of it??? So I decided i’m going to make my own headcanons for the avatar teens (neteyam, kiri, lo’ak, ao’nung, rotxo and tsireya) about what they would be like in a modern highschool au (they’re from the future but like pretend it makes sense please i keep tearing my hair out when I even try to fathom how this could be possible) .
Honestly after this my entire blog might just be modern avatar things
so i gracefully present to you…
◛⑅·˚ ༘ ♡ Modern Avatar Highschool AU A-Z (Pt. 1: A-G)

you are now reading a post by lorre
pt. 1 | pt. 2 | pt. 3 | pt. 4 | masterlist
Tumblr media
⌲ A for Active (Are they active in class?)
neteyam: Yeah, but he really does his best not to seem like too much of a teacher’s pet or a tryhard. He constantly raises his hand to answer and asks questions, and the teachers love him for this. One time he was the kid that reminded the teacher about the homework; needless to say he got a lot of tomatoes thrown at him that day.
kiri: Yes, but by active I mean actively debates with teachers. She will not be afraid to point out something politically or literally wrong that the teachers say, and if they fight back, she will not hesitate to put them in their place. Watch any teacher be openly homophobic while she’s present and they’re gonna get it.
lo'ak: Yes and no. He’s the type of kid to sit by the window and peer out into the sky while not listening to the teacher at all, cause he’s having his main character moment. But he’s ALSO the type of kid to doodle all over the table in permanent marker, and when the teacher says anything remotely related to a joke (peanuts, walnuts, nuts, your mom, getting milk) he’ll point it out and say jokes and turn the whole class laughing and alert in a matter of seconds cause he said something about it. Or he’ll ask stupid questions to stall time. Either way he’s not doing the teachers any favours.
ao'nung: You’d be having a conversation with him by whispering and then the teacher would call on him to answer, and you know what he does?? He answers it PERFECTLY. Nobody knows how he does it. NOBODY KNOWS. This has happened so many times that all the teachers don’t even bother cause they know he’s listening somehow. In short he will only answer questions if called on and in case he needs to ask a question he just sends an e-mail after school, he never speaks voluntarily in class.
rotxo: Bro asks a lot of questions, always raising his hand and asking stupid stuff like Lo’ak but not even on purpose, he’s just oblivious. “Should we use a pen or pencil?” “Can I drink some water?” “Is blue ink okay?” “Can I just type this out on my laptop?” “Ms, do you like dogs?” “Oh. How about ca-” the teachers are sick of him but they don’t do anything about it cause they know he’s just unaware. They do appreciate him when the class is way too silent though. But not all the time.
tsireya: This girl is the sweetest. She raises her hand if the teacher asks a question but nobody answers, because she feels bad for them. In case you want to ask a question but are too shy or uncomfortable you can just send her a little paper note and she’ll ask the question for you! The teachers love her, and they all know her name, even the ones that have never taught her before.
⌲ B for Born For This (Which subject are they best at and most interested in?)
neteyam: He is a master of physics, and he loves it. He will dominate any physics group, always taking the lead and more often than not, doing 90% of the work even if his teammates aren’t lazy. He knows every formula out of the top of his head and consistently gets A+’s every physics assignment. If you aren’t good at physics, find him and be his group partner.
kiri: Interestingly enough, rather than biology, I think she’d love philosophy. She’d be the type of person to ponder really hard about her existence and the existence of others, and if anything was even real. She also loves to mess with people (and the teachers).
“Kiri, why didn’t you submit this assignment?”
“I did.”
“Well I’m not seeing it anywhere.”
“Maybe you’re not seeing anything at all.”
“What?”
“What is ‘anywhere’ to you?”
“...”
“You aren’t seeing it anywhere because ‘anywhere’ doesn’t exist.”
“That doesn’t make sense.”
“And the concept of ‘anywhere’ does?”
“...”
“Oh and you’re sitting on it.”
The teacher will look under themself and literally find it, and when they look up she’s nowhere to be seen.
lo'ak: We have 2 options. Either theatre or band, but I think he’d lean more into being the cool guitar guy in a band. He would shred really well and he knows all the chords, he can play any song with just 10 minutes of experimenting and he would write his own songs (some of them dedicated to….a special someone). And for theatre he’d be more into funny little school dramas rather than plays like Hamilton or Beetlejuice.
ao'nung: This guy is an insane math genius. He doesn’t even actually pay attention to the math lesson, he just listens for the first 5-10 minutes of explanation and boom he understands everything perfectly. Anyone would swear he has like a calculator built into his head with how freakishly speedy he is at calculating things.
“Does anyone know what 67 x 23 i-”
“1541.”
“How did you-” “It’s so easy??”
HE IS A MENACE. Don’t even bother doing your taxes just call Ao’nung (and give him 5 bucks) he’ll have it done in 30 minutes or less. The teachers keep trying to get him to join the math club but he keeps declining, insisting that he already knows what his passion is.
rotxo: He gives major literature vibes. Either that or he’d be really good at multiple languages (he learned 4 to impress 4 different girls that all rejected him). He’s really good with his words and never has any grammar mistakes, he knows the meaning of every word and every phrase. Dictionary who? Oh, and he likes poetry but he keeps it a secret from everyone (only Ao’nung, Tsireya, and Kiri know about it).
tsireya: Now THIS is a Hamilton girlie. Like Lo’ak, she’d be really into theatre or band as in the singer. Her voice is angelic and literally would enrapture everyone’s attention with the first note she sings. She is shy with it though, but Lo’ak is her designated hype man, constantly telling her how good she is at singing and encouraging her to be more confident (so sweet). One time they sang a little duet of an original song Lo’ak wrote and it blew up on YouTube getting like 1.7 million likes. If you ask them where the video is now they’ll say that Lo’ak’s little sister deleted it for her slime asmr youtube channel.
⌲ C for Coolness Scale (If you asked everyone in the school to rate how cool they were on a scale from 0-10, what would they get?)
neteyam: 0.1/10. Nobody considers him “cool”, he’s the golden boy of the school but not like Ao’nung. He’s perfect, but not cool. Kind, but never cool. You asked Lo’ak and he immediately gave his brother a 0 without second thought. Kiri gave him a 1 because she felt bad. Ao’nung also immediately said 0. Tsireya felt too bad to answer the question (cause she knows he’s not cool) and said “whatever Lo’ak said” because she expected him to rate him higher. He didn’t. Rotxo said “whatever Ao’nung said.” and he KNEW he gave him a 0.
kiri: A solid 6/10. Everyone thinks she’s funny, and a bunch of girls gave her a 10 because….👀 Anyways, she mostly keeps to herself and has the most neutral face ever by default, nobody really knows her except for her brothers and Tsireya + Rotxo (Ao’nung is an honourable mention since he knows stuff about her from Tsireya and Rotxo), so everyone thinks she’s the mysterious type when in reality she just keeps her personality to herself and her friends cause “nobody asked”.
lo'ak: 3.5/10. He’s funny and chill but tries to be cool but he isn’t. Tsireya gave him a 9, Neteyam gave him a 2, Ao’nung a 0, Rotxo a 0, Kiri a 0.5. Everyone else gave him 3’s or 4’s cause they appreciate the effort but he’s not cool he’s more of a funny guy.
ao'nung: 9.8/10. Everyone likes him, literally everyone. He’s super popular and all the girls (and some guys) swoon over him whenever he walks past them in the halls, wherever he sits there's bound to be people asking him stuff and wishing him good luck for his games. He’s cool with all the guys, super cool with the girls. He doesn’t like to play with anyone’s feelings so he hasn’t dated anyone yet (his mom raised him right fr). He does have a cocky side to him which he only shows if he knows the other person won’t take it seriously (so literally basically everyone). Even Lo’ak and Neteyam gave him 9’s. The only reason it’s at a 9.8 is because Kiri gave him a 0.
rotxo: I swear if you ask anyone about him they’d be like ‘Who? Oh the guy that hangs around Ao’nung.’ you would have to give up cause too many people would say “who” or “idk”, poor guy. Ao’nung gave him a 10 but you would ask him last cause of what happened with Tsireya (rigged). He’d get a 7/10 but the only voters were Neteyam, Lo’ak, Kiri, Tsireya and Ao’nung.
tsireya: A 10. But how? Ao’nung is the school’s golden boy and she’s the golden girl, but she’s not cool. Realistically she’d get something like a 2. Like Neteyam, she’s super sweet and kind but she’s not cool. Lo’ak was biased and gave her a 10. But here’s the thing; Ao’nung gave her a 10. So naturally….everyone else gave her a 10.
⌲ D for Diligence (Do they submit their assignments early or late?)
neteyam: Super diligent, he’ll submit any assignment as soon as possible. He never clicks on different browsers when there’s an assignment due by the end of the class + he types really fast like it’s insane (his wpm is 369).
kiri: She is literally UNHINGED. If an assignment is due 6.00pm on a wednesday she’ll submit it at 5.59.59pm on a wednesday. Doesn’t matter when the assignment is due, she’ll always submit it like either a second before or directly on time of when it’s due. If school is closed on the due date (like it’s a saturday or sunday) she’ll submit it on Friday right before that teacher goes home. She knows when they go home. Not even on their desk, It’ll be waiting for them in their bag/car. Unhinged.
lo'ak: Assignment? what assignment? It’s all late. LATE. But not like days late, they’re always max 3 days late. He’s not that irresponsible, sometimes he just forgets. He does care about his grades, he’s trying his best. One time he submitted it like 2 minutes late and sent a whole 10 paragraph email to the teacher begging them to not take points off just this one time. They did, thankfully.
ao'nung: He submits them a day before. He procrastinates a lot but he always manages to get everything done in time. Has never submitted an assignment late before.
rotxo: He too hasn’t ever submitted an assignment late, but he always submits his assignments at the most UNGODLIEST of hours. He would submit it on the day of but at like 3.33am for no reason. His teachers are very concerned about his health.
tsireya: Diligent like Neteyam but very relaxed, she does her assignments on her own time. She’ll submit it like 2-3 days before.
⌲ E for Extracurricular (What clubs/team are they in?)
neteyam: Oddly enough, he’s on the swim team, and he’s a hella good swimmer. I just think it makes sense, like just think about neteyam in the swim team. Just think about it. If not swim then he’d be part of the Student Council, like the secretary or something. Maybe both, who knows.
kiri: 100% a member of debate more than anything. She just loves using her intellect to fight people, and you gotta respect that. She’s also vice president of the student council, being much more intimidating than the actual president.
lo'ak: TRACK TEAM. Boy he can RUN, he’s super nimble on his feet and the coaches consider him a blessing from heaven. He has a really good stamina and great endurance, he could run for hours if he really tried. If you ever anger him by talking crap about his family or Tsireya, find a really good hiding spot because you cannot outrun this man.
ao'nung: Captain of the basketball team. Like come on. He loves basketball, it’s his life and he wants to become a professional athlete. He’s willing to do whatever it takes. Oh and he’s treasurer of the student council, just because the president thought he’d be perfect for the job.
rotxo: Newspaper team. He’s great with words and he’s everywhere like an NPC, making him the perfect guy to take photos of literally anything. He definitely has his own column in the school newspaper where you can ask for advice in his anonymous email and he’ll respond in the newspaper (his fake name is Tory).
tsireya: President of the student council. She knows exactly what the school needs and she provides it, the activities/festivals/events she plans are always the bomb and everyone supports her as the president. She’s super nice and is too afraid to get mad at anyone, so Kiri or Ao’nung will do it for her. She is not afraid to show her disappointment with a sharp glare, however, which would literally destroy the heart of any troublemaker trying to ruin any school festivities.
⌲ F for F#?@!!! (Do they swear at school?)
neteyam: No
kiri: Won’t swear at anyone (except for Ao’nung) but does whisper profanity under her breath if she’s stressed out or something. Constantly pulls the middle finger at her brothers (more often at Lo'ak) and Ao’nung though.
lo'ak: Yes, definitely not around teachers but yes, but he’s started to calm it down after Tsireya confronted him about it.
ao'nung: No
rotxo: Once. He was sitting a test in Economics one day and he yelled “F#?!” out of nowhere, got up from his seat and walked out the door. Ao’nung was confused as hell. Being the good friend he was, he snatched Rotxo’s abandoned paper when the teacher wasn’t looking and finished it for him, with a few different answers from his to avoid suspicion, letting him get a B- rather than an F.
tsireya: No
⌲ G for Girl/Guy Magnet (Do they attract more boys or more ladies?)
neteyam: Definitely the girls, they like him cause he’s the soft stoic type and a gentleman. The girls that aren’t into Ao’nung are definitely into Neteyam. He’s super nice and one time he helped a girl pick up her fallen books. That day she fell in love.
kiri: Both. She’s so chill with it and super sarcastic and funny which definitely earns her points in both departments. The guys enjoy her presence, they think she’s different cause her way of messaging is like a guy which confuses them at first but then they really enjoy texting her for no reason (annoys her to hell tbh), leave the woman alone. But if it was a GIRL texting Kiri, she’d have no problem rizzing them up subtly.
lo'ak: Not a magnet at all. And he wouldn’t have it any other way. He bagged a beautiful, gorgeous, kind, loyal, honest, funny girl and he’s not interested in anyone else.
ao'nung: Both. Be so fr. He’s nice but also likes to tease people, he’s funny and confident and hot. And he works out and he’s smart which is like damn how many blessings did Eywa give him? Both girls and boys adore him a lot and look up to him, but he always lets people down gently.
rotxo: Also not a magnet. It’s not like he’s unattractive or anything, but always sits next to Ao’nung or hangs next to Kiri which ultimately takes the attention completely away from him. But he’s alright with it, he already has someone in mind which he’s already close to.
tsireya: Both. Need I say more? She’s literally a mix of Neteyam and Ao’nung (NOT IN THAT WAY) and she always enjoys taking care of herself and she has an impeccable taste in fashion, earning her extra extra bonus points. She would have received like three dozen love letters by now if it weren’t for her older brother, always making sure she’s safe from stupid boys who might break her heart. He may have forgotten about Lo'ak though, but as long as he doesn't hurt her everything will be fine.

Matty, ATVB, Simulacra and Simulation
responding to a question that someone asked ( which @abiiors has been kind enough to pass on to me). Here’s a brief explanation that I hope makes some kind of sense. ( please easy on my friends yall. Their blogs aren’t means of contacting me🩷)
it’s all very ✨meta✨ and ✨postmodern✨ I’m not really joking this is the kind of philosophy that Matty is referencing when he calls things “postmodern” or “meta.” So, strap in. Grab a snack or a drink or a joint.
ANYWAYS!
The relationship between art/ media, and “reality” has been a hot issue of contention for philosophy going alllllll the way back to Ancient Greece where Plato argued that artists are “liars” who “copy” reality and try to pass it off as real. 
This obviously brings up questions regarding imitation, invention, recording, copying, representation, transcribing, etc etc etc. 
the book that Matty is referencing Simulacra and Simulation takes up these issues in the context of our current society (postmodernist, late stage capitalist society). 
The book argues that we have become sooo obsessed with media that we have replaced “real life” with it. We treat images, recordings, video, memes, etc as real as the things that they are based on (real life). 
In this way, what we know now as reality is actually a simulation of reality. 
According to the book, this did not happen overnight. It’s something that we moved towards over centuries. The real move likely started in the 1600s and it took until the 20th century to get us to the point where we are now. 
“Simulacra” is all the excessive media that we have used to replace the real world. Signs, symbols, ads, billboards, video, sound bites, etc. 
simulacra are NOT “pretending” to be real or “hiding” the truth. They have simply BECOME THE TRUTH because we treat them as true.
The book refers to this phenomenon as “hyper reality.” Like more real than the real. The thing that we started off simply recording or copying (“real life”) has turned into “less real” than thecopy of it (the video, picture, movie, insta post, etc).
The book makes a dramatic analogy of this by telling a hypothetical scenario where someone decided to make a map of a giant empire that is soooo detailed and accurate that it becomes as large as the empire itself. So people start to treated as if it ISSSS the empire. Not a map of it. 
Fun fuckin fact: this book came out in the 80s lmao. So before social media. Imagine how wild it would be today?
Why is Matty referencing this book? 
Well, let’s take a look at his Instagram posts (pause for a moment to consider the irony that he’s posting an Instagram story of a book about how everything is basically an Instagram story of reality. Peak Matty Healy? I think so. )
The first quote that he posted is
 Simulating is not pretending: "Whoever fakes an illness can simply stay in bed and make everyone believe he is ill. Whoever simulates an illness produces in himself some of the symptoms.”
As I said above, simulation is not meant to “trick you” its not covering something real underneath. It IS the thing now. It’s acquired the status of being real. So, if someone goes so far as to act sick, stay in bed, make themselves sneeze, cough, stay up all night so that their eyes are red and they haven’t slept and they’re super tired, they might as well BE SICK. in fact now they AREEEE SICK they’re not pretending. 
2. The second quote is 
Therefore, pretending...leaves the principle of reality intact: the difference is always clear, it is simply masked, whereas simulation threatens the difference between the "true" and the “false,the real" and the imaginary 
“Pretending” would be considered lying. Like there is a truth distinct from what you are portraying and you seek to hide the truth by portraying it differently. “Simulation” however doesn’t leave any difference between what’s true and what you show publicly, the two collapse into one another. 
What does this have to do with ATVB?
Well, Matty is taking us back to “If it’s method acting but what you’re acting is actually your real life then what’s acting and what’s real?” Right?
There are, of course, other ways to extend this conundrum in light of 2023. That is, what’s rhetorical difference between “Truman Black” and “Matty Healy”? What’s the difference between the public perception of Matty Healy and the “real” Matty Healy? (Is there even such a thing?) If he commits to a joke or a bit AI HARD is the “bit” even a bit anymore? If not, does it lose its effectiveness? Cuz obviously people do acts  BECAUSE they’re acts. They’re not reality. Except we now live in a world where all “acts” can and are indeed real. 
Furthermore: is there a difference between the first and the second halves of the show? During SATVB NA the answer was no most of the time. Because they blended the setlist. BFIAFL and greatest hits were no longer clearly separated. They played bits of both at the same time. 
If all of this is true, what then does it even mean to be “sincere” or “earnest” in a world where everything has an equal degree of reality all the time?
DOES THIS MAKE ANY SENSE TO ANYBODY AT ALL OR AM I INSANEEEE

no need for a conspiracy, they have been allowing terfs to organize in the open for the last ten years, they are clearly okay on an organizational level with transphobia
I mean... so has every major social media site.
Social media not taking action against bigotry, particularly transphobia, isn't exactly news. "Trans people exist, are people, are who they say they are, and deserve protection" is a lot more common than it used to be, but it's still only the norm in, like, notably progressive spaces- and social media in particular is pretty notorious for having this "grey area" mindset with content moderation, where anything that could maybe possibly be argued to Not Need site-level policy enforcement by anyone is simply ignored.
I have reported threats of violence detailed enough that they continue to haunt me over a year later, and tumblr was like, "sorry man, have you tried blocking them? that should fix it (:"
I could wonder if maybe that's because whoever looked into it saw from my blog bio that I was trans and let it go, but like, so was the person I was reporting. Wouldn't that be a good opportunity for a crypto-TERF to shut down a trans account with a strong alibi?
I'm surprised they took action at all with pissvortex, but with a blog that large and action that unambiguously against TOS, I don't really think "tumblr is run by a secret group of TERFs intent on destroying all trans people" is really the takeaway here. I think maybe we can learn to spot the difference between run of the mill transphobia from cis people claiming to mean well & like, actual TERFdom. And if we haven't really seen crypoTERF ideas or dogwhistles from these folks, I'm not sure why yall would buy into that so fast anyway.
It's a problem that TERFs aren't considered unambiguously to be bigots by large cis society, and it's one I hope- and will continue to fight- to see change. But TERFs existing on this platform aren't indication of a secret conspiracy run by crypto-TERFs pretending to be a trans-supportive but mostly kinda incompetent social media site with an understaffed moderation team who makes weird choices at least partially because that's what moderating content on social media does to your brain. And I don't think it's helpful to think about the world in that kind of amped up, high-stress, high-panic, black-and-white, "you're either a perfect ally or you actively want me dead" kind of way.

See I'm not a tkk troll but a jkkr but now I'm starting to think taekook are real and tkkrs were right all this time. And just because many were against them they became toxic. Regarding jimin, either they were just hating him because they got jealous or he is indeed doing FS.
Everytime we see now tkk are spending a lot of time together. In random pics it's tkk who's together and not Jikook, but in content coming from company somehow these thing is opposite. There tkk are asked to say they are not close, not spending much time behind scenes along with lot of playful moments intiated by Jimin. Tae's best friend's brother just posted a pic of tkk playing together, that said best friend who has met BTS is only following JK and Tae on insta (I wonder why and funny because we may take this as a Jkk moment if it happened or link Tae to someone else if something like this happened ), tae posting a lot of JK pics, talking a lot about him, them going to hangout in busan. Just take busan vlive for eg, how he put arms around JK unprovoked but never does that if it is some other member. I want to say a lot but then you will label me as 'tkk troll' and ignore..
I literally have had tkkrs on here that I've interacted with and not called them trolls. You don't want to be called a troll. Don't act like a troll. It's honest to God that simple. You don't need to lie. Just say what you think and go. Pretending to be a jkkr while saying Tae only ever puts his arm around JK in vlives is just silly and not true (i mean just a few months ago he was putting an arm around Jin and kissing him on the head during their vlive with the others or pulling Hobi back into his lap for cuddles during the vlive or putting his arm around Jimin, etc etc etc).
I just heard about the bowling picture, if that's true it's great and I hope they have fun and maybe then they were talking about their bowling trip invite when Tae mentioned talking to him earlier. Which is amazing. I take all that with a grain of salt though too. I've already covered all of your other points in plenty of other posts. So not worth rehashing for me personally. Ship who you want anon. I'll wish you well. No skin off my back.
I will say though that don't pretend to be a jkkr and then say the company tells taekook to say they aren't close and that jikook don't hang out in their personal time when that's been proven incorrect many times. Just say, "I think I'm beginning to think taekook are real." And go on your merry way! Idk why you need to tell ME though. You don't need my approval love. Ship away! Just leave Jimin out of it, yeah? I think your wrong but why does that matter? And you aren't that special, I ignore lots of asks. Lol if you just really want attention, ask or DM me. I delete lots of asks I get. It's just how it goes. I deleted an ask from someone who I generally very much so enjoy talking to on this hell site about minimoni because it was a topic of conversation I just didn't want to invite into my space at this time. And when I told them, they were very understanding about it. No troll name calling involved either.
Tumblr media
Enjoy your time as a taekooker anon. I hope it brings you the happiness you want it to 😅 there are tons of tkkr blogs here as well that would be more than happy to hear your "conversion" story too. But honestly, even if you really are/were a jkkr, I'm not the head of the organization. You don't need to turn in your 2 weeks notice to me. You can actually just leave the "shipdom" at any time. 💜 you don't need my validation or approval to make your own choices.

people will say they're into "hard kinks" and then leave it up to each individual person's interpretation to decide what "hard" means. is it the types of kinks, the intensity of play, only ethically and socially immoral kinks...? who knows. (the person saying they have hard kinks.)
i keep seeing the use of "hard" or "soft" kinks as categories to separate the socially taboo and more popularly acceptable kinks. this seems to have stemmed from people using "hard kinks" as a general label because it contains most of the kinks that are often found in someone's "hard limits". a hard limit is not about categorically taboo kinks, it is a firm and strict "no". it's a "red light". it means those kinks are not open to negotiate. there is no such thing as "soft kinks" the way it is being used to imply "acceptable kinks". using these labels does not actually inform anyone of what kinks you are, or aren't, interested in.
also, i get the feeling people think that having boundaries with some of the popular kinks, like rape and incest, is being sex negative. having personal boundaries and limits are never about kink negativity, being prudish, judging others, or being puritanical in any way.
you're allowed to feel uncomfortable with anything, and placing a firm rule for others to not go against your consent (which only applies to your own personal boundaries and comfort level) is not "shaming" anyone else. everyone has different interests and levels of comfort.
if you're going to say you're into kink, separate from just being a thrill seeking or horny person, you should know that not everyone is going to feel the same way about things as you do. (kink itself is not always a sexualized act or intention.) some people will have an extremely greater tolerance for pain, psychological play, or immorality than what you're comfortable with. some people will be far less into any of the interests you have. everyone is different, but everyone should be respected. and someone who is not comfortable with your particular kinks is not shaming you. they are not viewing those kinks in a negative way. they simply don't consent.
i've also noticed people who seem to think there's a difference between kink and bdsm. they are literally the same thing. kink is bdsm. bdsm is kink. 🌠
from what i've personally experienced with all of this here, it really seems like some people are upset that i don't consent to some of their kinks. they choose to send me messages and reblog my content by playing out kinks i've specifically stated my boundary with. they act as though not having my consent is a challenge to them, some disapproval they can rebel against, or something unimportant they can ignore entirely. (consent is always required.)
consent, boundaries, rules, limits, and negotiating are all part of kink. we like to communicate everything, and consent is especially- even more- important to US than vanilla people. (although consent is always necessary.) so when i see many young people here talking about all their kinks and leaving out the fundamental foundations of What It Is That We Do, it makes me feel uneasy and like people are pretending to be something they aren't. kink is not just what physically arouses you. there are many kinksters that do not involve any type of sexual play in their scenes, roles, or lifestyle.
i really miss being able to follow more blogs with a variety of interests that i don't share, but could understand. i'm talking about years before this blog, but it seems like it has gotten to a point now where most people are not accepting of personal boundaries- and even more worrisome is the lack of seriousness around consent in general. we should be able to follow and interact with each other without having clearly stated lines being deliberately crossed. there ought to be a sense of accountability, respect, community, and understanding with one another. i've learned so much from people who were different from me, who liked things- passionately- that i never had any interest in whatsoever.

#i dont think its ever mentioned if the uchihas had their own traditional clan names but if they did this would mean sasuke doesnt have one
My Top Posts in 2022:

itachis narrative follows through at first, but falls apart if you inspect it. his story's actually quite inconsistent...
like only focusing on his treatment of sasuke, we are told he did it to make him stronger. but its all very vague and a flimsy excuse for the sheer agony and torture it caused to the brother he loved. his character or backstory didnt seem to be finalized when he was first introduced..
nevertheless i do love the 'actually he loved his brother' storyline. its very tragic. his canon actions offer a lot for interpretation...
i read a fic where itachi loved sasuke so much he killed the uchihas because he felt thy were trapping him and wanted to see sasuke fly. hmmmm*
possibilities...(the love can be twisted too)
i feel like all the anti itachi portay him as too...overly willing to kill his clan? (for the sake of konoha) wasnt danzos ultimatum (either every single uchiha dies at roots hands..or only sasuke will be spared if he does it himself) playing a major part in his decision??...
anyways kishimoto did end up creating one of the most iconic characters of anime/manga...
so im not complaining ...i dont think the uchiha storyline would be as memorable without the twist
*(i love pre reveal itachi and sasuke fics. the explanations they make for the massacre are always so interesting...)

lmao how itachi didnt even kill shisui, his best friend, but told sasuke to kill his to get the mangekyou sharingan.
what would he have done if sasuke had actually killed naruto (his best friend then) only to find out itachi lied about killing shisui for power
wow can you imagine how awkward that would be

the sound era trio- orochimaru sasuke & kabuto are peak comedy potential
their dynamic is SO funny to me but theres barely any content around them??? hello??
like orochimaru with his weird fake politeness and sadistic amusement vs kabuto who cant stand sasuke (and vice versa) but he has to be nice bcs this angsty preteen is his masters next vessel vs sasuke whos just here power and really doesnt give a shit about the other two, except for when he wants to take out his teenage angst by bullying kabuto,

My #1 post of 2022
it will forever baffle me, all those memes that paint sasuke as this dumb, idiotic character that knows nothing and is a selfish brat for wanting to kill his brother who loves him and power-obsessed for leaving to orochimaru, and then pretend itachi didnt have any part in that. that that was all sasuke, uninfluenced.
setting aside the question of (his intentions, if it made sense, what was a better alternative, was it morally justified etc.) its a fact that the one who made him that way was... itachi. he was the one who told him to hate him, to kill his best friend for the mangekyou sharingan, to grow stronger, to cling to hate and revenge, to come after him to kill him. 
he was the one who told him he lacks enough hate, called him weak, and repeatedly used tsukoyomi to make him relive the massacre and hate him, therefore want to grow stronger to kill him. he actively hid the truth and manipulated it to be that sasuke would never find out, even after death, he was the one who took the brush and painted himself a mindless villain, just to make him hate him. that was all itachi. that was what drove him to orochimaru, to leave konoha, to try and cut off naruto. 
sasuke wasnt somehow naturally that way, (on the contrary, he went after itachi right after seeing his parents bodies, stopped himself from killing naruto)- itachi had to constantly influence him to fester hate that way. it was literally all part of itachis plan! itachi’s!!! people just ignore that, fuck?
like i love itachis character too, i genuinely enjoy his and sasukes storyline. this is not an attack on his character. its just kind of irritating when people lift him up while putting sasuke down by like, exaggerating and making him out to be a pathetic spoilt brat of a character and pretend itachis the actual and only victim bcs how terrible to have a brother who you love but wants to kill you, somehow ignoring that itachi was the one who manipulated his brother? like yeah itachi was manipulated and under pressure too, but in terms of his and sasukes relationship he is the one who lied!!!
like i dont even care about his mistakes or whatever, i care abt sasuke being made out to be the "villain" in their dynamic

Wheel of Time full series spoiler thoughts on TDR 20-24
A probably semi-regular weekly bonus to my reread blog, since sometimes you realize things on reread that just make you need to yell in a full spoiler space.
I feel like this first chapter puts Lanfear's dreamhopping with Perrin into perspective as something she really was doing with all of them, but I'm still chewing on the why of that angle of things.
I wonder if Lanfear knows more about Mat and his role in the prophecies. She's canny enough to have survived the whole damned series, she wouldn't get very far if she didn't know everything there was to know.
I'm still a little surprised, this read, at just how much Siuan demonstrates blatant distrust of Leane, and not remembering a single instance of Leane bringing it back up after the coup. "How many times did you send me out of the room when you were trying to deal with this alone? And how many times could I have helped save your ass? How many times have I ever let you down or done anything to imply I wasn't trustworthy?" All valid questions she could be asking!
I always do forget that little fragment Verin reads. She's so cheeky! Do you think she really does know what it means, that it was a test for Egwene? It is a bit odd that it names Ballsy as just another name for Ishy, but then seems to refer more to the Aiel than anything… though, I suppose in a smaller way Rand/the Dragon makes the whole world face a comparable test of faith. Lies are the foundations of the perception of safety, for a lot of folks. The idea that the Dragon betrayed and broke the world on purpose because he was a Darkfriend, for example, is one that a lot of countries and cultures have adopted in Randland.
And Verin's list… do you think that she included tidbits she only learned as a double agent, obscured in detail to make it plausible that they were in records somewhere, but wanting to help the girls as much as she could?
I do have to say, it's funny that RJ was still holding onto the ageless face with no Oaths here, in retrospect. That later he decided it would in fact be all too obvious that a woman hadn't taken the Oaths just a few years after her raising to the shawl. Then again, these are AU dreams, maybe we can pretend the rules are a little different wherever Egg went.
All the little hints, all over the story, that Sheriam is Black Ajah even so early on. Chef's kiss, incredible. And throwing suspicion at Elaida in the same breath almost when she's not even really a villain, just an antagonist who is in fact trying to fight for the same goals from a different angle and getting in our heroes' way.
"Thank you, Perrin, she thought, for showing me how to do that." How much she'll be thanking him for by the end!
"I do not believe you will ever be part of the White Tower, not in the way the rest of us are" well you're mostly right about that one Elaida, Egg definitely won't be part of the standard progression of things.
Alanna ;~; Oh jeez I love-hate how much the show has made me love her before I'm gonna have even more complex feelings no matter how they handle what she's been set up to do. (If you don't believe me, look back at her season 1 outfit, she's covered in chains, and that's the least and most obvious of the seeds planted.)
RJ had a lot to answer for with all the fetishy boob and spanking content, but just as much, it would be interesting to know how he thought Mat's memories and Old Tongue would shape up out of the "Old Blood" concept. Big "thanks I hate it how about there are enough genetic legacies in this setting making people special snowflake protagonists who fulfill prophecies and it's okay for not all your heroes to be from fancy backgrounds". Star Wars fell into the same trap in the sequel trilogy.

P & U for the ask game <3 - @jtl-fics
Fandom Asks
ok so I spent WAY too long thinking about my answers, but here we GO
P - Invent a random AU for any fandom (we always need more ideas). : So I've been watching a lot of travel/train content on YouTube so all I can come up with right now is the foxes/the monsters? Are taking a semicolon train through the us and Neil's on the run and pretends to be a part of their group to escape his father's people??? Idk is this anything??? (I mostly wanna write andreil smoking/looking at the stars on the caboose while looking at scenic waterfalls/canyons/etc)
U - Three favorite characters from three different fandoms, and why they’re your favorites. :
I feel like picking Neil is kind of a cop-out when my blog title is literally 'number 1. Neil Josten Stan', and besides I've typed thousands of words at this point about why I love him, so here's 3 OTHER favorite characters of mine, in no particular order
1.) Percy Jackson - maybe my first blorbo??? He's selfless but also selfish in that he'd protect the people he cares about over the whole world. Like Neil, he's also a Certified Yapper and has been known to mouth of to people that he maybe shouldn't have. He thinks of himself as Just Some Guy when really he's the most powerful demigod this entire generation??? He's smarter than he gives himself credit for !!!! He thinks he's just bumbling. Along but he has really good instincts and he knows how to use people's weaknesses against them !!! I could write a whole essay about why he's so GOOD!!!
2.) Nick Nelson (heartstopper) - he's just a big ol softy with a heart of gold !!!! He loves his boyfriend and doesn't care who knows it !!!! Literally willing to beat up bullies for talking bad about Charlie !!!! He just wants all his loved ones to be happy and he'll bend over backwards to make it happen !!! The ULTIMATE Golden Retriever Boy !!!!
3.) Marcille Donato (Delicious in Dungeon) - I adore her because she's everything you think she shouldn't be, and I think she's a more complex character than you'd first expect. She's a pretty elf girl who specializes in dark magic. She hates eating monsters and being in the dungeon in general but she does it anyway !!! She's so powerful but also kind and also has some internal prejudices she's working through but she's trying her best !!! She's incredibly smart but also a little bit of a disaster !!!! She's even gay !!!! I just think she's neat

So do you want her to post about Alex or do you not? When she posts him you get angry and say she’s using him for fame, attention etc. then when she doesn’t post him you guys get, again, upset and say he’s the only reason she even gets the things she has recently and that he’s the only interesting part about her. Which even though she didn’t make a whole post dedicated to him (because it was a Paris fashion show celebrating the clothing brand, not some big event celebrating Alex and Luca) she posted him on her story and hyped him up a bit and that was it. Why is anything else needed? She gave you Alex content on a 24hr limited story (that you like to say is the only thing she is good for) while at the same time not making it all about him on her account (since you say she uses him for attention posts all the time). She gave you exactly what you wanted and still, you get upset and over analyze the whole situation? Literally anything she does is a problem to this blog, I don’t get it.
Thank you for sharing your point of view on this, anon. 😊 First of all, you say that "literally anything she does is a problem to this blog", as if this blog's sole purpose is to demonize Johanne, which is not. This is simply a place for everyone to share their opinions, and it's okay if you don't agree with them. Maybe they're not as positive as you would like them to be, but they're valid. Just like you thinking differently is also valid and respected here. Absolutely anyone can share their thoughts, both positive & negative.
Now, trying to answer the questions you raised, I can only speak for myself and give you my point of view, so if anyone else would like to add theirs, they're more than welcome to do so. First of all, I believe we'd much rather have Alex posting for himself, his own content and new, interesting projects, or just the fun tidbits of his daily life like he used to do in the past. No one asked for Johanne to give the fandom "Alex content", and certainly not in the way she does. I think observing Johanne & Alex's interactions in comparison to those of Lucas & Laura during this weekend really helped putting things in perspective, showing what really feels like some nice chemistry and companionship, and being there to support one's boyfriend, instead of trying to make oneself "the main character" once more. Maybe Johanne was super excited to be there and that's why she kept tagging the brand, but one would think that she was actually the one who got the invitation, when the truth was far from that. She didn't have to make a whole post dedicated to Alex, but she also didn't have to make herself look like this super influencer, describing her weekend and tagging all the brands. Again, using Laura's post as an example, it's actually a nice recap of their weekend — it's fun, it still shows Lucas, but it's not over the top, nor is she pretending to be more relevant that she was (in the context of Paris Fashion Week, of course). It's all a matter of balance, in my opinion.
Plus, no one got "angry" or "upset" with Johanne. We're just discussing things for the fun of it, it's not that serious and none of this affects our lives at the end of the day. So it's totally okay if you actually like her & her content. We don't always have to agree or like the same things. 😊

DNI List & General blog info:
DNI list:
First things first. If I don't like you I'll block you without even interacting with you so choose your words carefully. Now that that is clear, here are some of the most common things that will get you blocked from my list.
♡ No Disgusting Men are allowed *click for the rant* (Please note that there's a difference~ I don't hate men. I just don't want to be spammed and harassed like that)
♡ Bots, creeps, spammers, stalkers, blackmailers, and ads. I hate them and I'll block them ASAP
♡ No relationships online
♡ No friends with benefits
♡ Please do not ask me of personal matters unless a friendship between us is further developed
♡ Don't send pics. I'm not sending pics either.
♡ Not looking for a sub/dom relationship. Please stop.
♡ Don't threaten me with anything.
♡ Do not try to brainwash me.
♡ Do not stalk me. Please. There's a difference between following me on my social media, ofc. I am aware that I have my whole life on display but do not stalk me. That's scary and shitty of you.
⚠️ My sexuality is nothing of your concern. Neither is my age. If you ask about it you're going to be lied about it and blocked. Don't treat me like a child. I'm not a child.
Please don't push my boundaries. AND keep your thoughts to yourself. You can fantasize about me all the time if you want, really, I don't mind. I'm pretty chill about all that.
But I do feel uncomfortable and triggered if you talk to me about it. This is pretty much going straightforward to my block list if you do break this rule. If you can't keep a normal conversation without involving sex, then I cannot respect you. Thank you. ⚠️
Other people who might be blocked:
♡ Racists.
♡ Conservative/traditionalist people (You might be horrified because my train of thoughts can be quite aggressive for you. I would rather we both part ways right here.)
♡ Super religious people (I like to use facts and logic instead of religion, so if you're catholic or christian, or something similar and you don't like my train of thoughts please don't let me keep you. Block me and walk away.)
If you need to know something about me,... I'm more inclined to witches, mermaids and faes than anything else. So let's keep things polite between us. I don't want or need hate comments.
♡ Nazis and neo-nazis ( ಠ_ಠ really, I should not need to explain this but we have been through 2 WW and okaaay admittedly, the UN. has been quite lazy but this still doesn't justify that kind of behavior. One of the articles on the International Bill Act is that we all deserve respect, and feeling safe. Another one says that we all have to cooperate to keep these.) So far I don't think you represent that idea. Quite the contrary. So move on. This blog doesn't support you. Sorry.
♡ Rad-wives, eco-fascists and terfs. I had to look it up because I didn't know what that meant. But no. Thanks for coming. You can all block me and unfollow me.

♡ Some reminders
★☆★☆ Topics I won't be writing ☆★☆★
I'm not sure but I'll be posting something here if there's anything I'm just not into.
☆★☆★☆ Topics I usually write ☆★☆★☆
Fantasy. Romance. Drama.
I'm currently working on a dystopian story. It's a bit different from my usual genre but it's so interesting!
☆★☆ Trigger warnings ☆★☆
I always try to put a TW before anything I write if that thing does indeed needs a trigger warning. So if you notice that the story has one, read it and please do not skip those. Otherwise it's not my problem but yours.
⚠️ ⚠️ If you do notice that I forgot to put a TW on a certain post, please let me know.
I won't get mad, on the contrary! You're helping me a lot! And I'll be taking care of it ASAP.

♡ Right now I'm not taking requests or submissions because I'm working a lot on my stories as a writer. If you're interested on them make sure to check them out.
I might open submissions once I finish with my novels, but it's not a promise or a priority.

𖤐 Quid pro Quo 𖤐 How to use ASKS function (click on it)
I do answer anything you want to ask. But if I don't answer right away it's because I don't have time (college keeps me busy, ya know?) or I don't know how to answer that right now. Or maybe I'm working on it but it's taking me some time to finish it. Be patient and let me take my time.
Please be a sweetheart and don't steal my content, would you? 💖

nct dream as partners to an age regressor cg!nct dream x f!reader
dni: if you sexualize age regression and/or have an 18+ blog.
genres agere content, fluff warnings feminine nicknames dni if you sexualize age regression author's note hihi ! first time blogging, kinda nervous ... i've had this idea in my little marble head for quite some time and now here i am posting it !
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
mark lee (ᓀ‸ᓂ)
ur gonna be the death of him. poor boy is stressed 25/8
he's doing his best but he still doesn't quite understand at times
a quality time lover ! sometimes he gets so immersed in his own thing he doesn't notice you switch tasks until it's too late,,,,
"oh no! oh dude... i'm so sorry man, c'mere. no, don't apologize. it's my fault. it's ok. you can cry all you want. let's just get a bandaid on that gnarly cut, okay?"
when he's sorry, he means it ! after the pb&j knife switcheroo incident, he made sure to set alarms to make your meals just in case you've regressed that day and can't (safely) make your own food
a very good listener ! he loves listening to u talk for hours and hours and hours and hours and
listens intently to the explanation of your shows, the names of your plushies, and the storylines currently on going as you play pretend
loves playing pretend. at first, he was a bit shy, breaking character and laughing into his hands when embarrassment got the best of him, but now bro is confident! u could place him in a broadway show and no one would think he's out of place
could be said he was actually the one who made the first move to play pretend.
"...whatcha doing?" "playing" "...what are you playing?" after being burned under your x-ray vision gaze for no less than 5 seconds, you hand him a plushie and 'insist' on him playing with you
not one for titles or nicknames. mark is mark, you are you!
punishments are the last of his worries. hopefully, you don't make it rise the ranks
huang renjun ૮ ˙Ⱉ˙ ა
manners freak
"ah!" he always has to hold whatever you asked for out of your reach. "what do we say? it starts with a t and ends with a 'you'."
does all sorts of crafts with you
one time, he drew your favorite character and you loved it so much you made him put it on your wall then and there. he was undermining it and complaining that he didn't want to get up and do all the work that involves framing it but the smile and blush on his face told a different story
lets you put stickers on him! only the pretty ones that he's approved beforehand. and NOT on his hair. he's chinese, not korean. he doesn't need the military service buzzcut
like mark, not big on titles. they make him uncomfortable tbh. nicknames for you, however, he does quite like (tiny, munchkin, etc.).
happy to let you be independent while regressed under STRICT supervision
goes so far as to make little songs and jingles to you can sing along to as you perform certain tasks so you both know you're doing things safely and correctly even when out of his eyesight
ur complete coloring pages go right next to his pieces of art on the fridge. u are both artists !
lullabies are a must. the man is a singer for a living ! good night! z Z z ....
punishments usually consist of renjun nagging on for over an hour. you don't really tend to listen. it's mostly for him to let out his frustration before the big stepper comes for you.
"and NO ice cream this weekend!" "NO!"
lee jeno ૮ .◜◡◝ა
first one to actually not mind titles ! he can live without them but they scratch an itch in his brain like nothing else can
two words: cute aggression. leans in to kiss your cheek only to bite it. he bites your nose. he bites your EARS ?! someone lock this man up !
hugs you in a way that presses the cheeks of the two of you until you look like twins conjoined at the head
the cuddliest man ever like i've never seen a more teddy bear-coded individual?!?!?!
"gotta pee." "hold it." "i can't!" grumbling jeno noises
started going back to the gym after seeing how much he you like being carried
he doesn't really talk a lot when in cg mode, but you've known him long enough that you can read his body language just fine
might actually be in cg space more than you are regressed !
just anything that you do, big or little. it's so precious to him. he feels the urge to just protect you from everything!!!
no !!! u can't go outside !!! what if bugs bite u?!!! oh u brought bug spray? ok... send him a message of when u get on the bus! and when u get off the bus! and to ur friend's house! actually, just let him drive u ok? give him five minutes to change !
the worst at dishing out punishments out of all of dream. a pout, a teary eye, a sniffle, he's unraveling at the seams.
he sits on a chair by the bed, arms crossed with a stern look. you could shatter it with a bat of your lashes, but you know you need this.
"i'll be sitting here until you fall asleep. we could've played chutes and ladders tonight like you wanted if you hadn't thrown away your veggies, angel."
lee donghyuck ʕ˙Ⱉ˙‧:ʔ
he is the baby. wdym you are ?
poor boy is used to being the youngest and acting cute, what is he supposed to do now that the tables are turned?
at the beginning, it's lots of awkward head pats and hugs of comfort.
sits you on his lap while he's gaming, playing with you and your toys in between matches
kind of insecure to be ur cg :( give the boy praise and appreciation!
"you," he sighs, looking away from you. "you should really be in bed by now. it's past your bedtime." "but you're not asleep." another sigh. "i know..."
when his confidence and comfortability is up tho? big big BIG on the baby talk and praise to the point you have to remind him you guys are in public!!! it started out as a joke (yk how he is, being annoying on purpose with his main weapon being aegyo). he doesn't think it's a joke anymore guys,,,,,,,,,,,,,
titles are goofy to haechan. he calls you the same he always does.
"what about me? did i do a good job today?" he asks, striking a ridiculous pose. "yeah ! you're the best, chan ! :D" "... :( thank u baby :,("
punishments don't exist actually! he's right there next to you. silly string all over the room? it was his idea to play spiders. veggies thrown away? impossible. he never bought them to begin with. didn't do your assignment? was it that important to begin with? hyuck doesn't think so
might be a regressor too ! on the older side, perhaps (pre-teen - teenage)
na jaemin ଘ(੭ˊᵕˋ)੭
terrible for big space. just the absolute worst
baby talk and aegyo is not an action for him, it's a lifestyle. makes you do one or the other (or both if he's feeling particularly sadistic i mean playful) if you want something or as a punishment on the lighter side
probably made you slip multiple times before you even told him you regress
all the cheesy, cringy, cliche stuff? he does that. shamelessly too
loves titles and uses them on himself even if you don't. doesn't make you call him anything, but he loves how it 'rolls off the tongue so well!'
he's an addict to nicknames for you. finds them randomly
"oh man, look at that rabbit! it's so cute!" "just like y/n" "what" just randomly takes out his phone in the middle of walking to text you nana: hi bunny you: ? you: hi?
acts of service are his natural calling. you might as well be quadriplegic.
makes your favorite drink for you! ur too little to do it urself !!! let him do it for u (pls pls pls pls pls he's on his knees)
also makes lunches for you that are all pretty and shaped like some sort of animal when ur feeling small ! he stopped doing cats though since one time you felt like you were eating luna and cried.
you two literally fight to death about who loves who the most. jaemin has to be tied to a chair in the basement of an abandoned building to let you do literally anything for him
punishments are extremely rare. virtually non-existent. he prefers to talk things through and give rewards rather than take away
health is important! it's so so important to him he set up a meal plan where you eat the rainbow three times a day.
makes you exercise with him.........
"i'll be home in about half an hour, jellybean. do you think you could finish a bottle of water by then? i know you can. i'll see you soon, okay?"
zhong chenle (ᯟ︿ᯏ)
you know those people that talk to babies like they're grown people that pay taxes and drink alcohol? that's chenle
he knows you've regressed and you're not in the mindset of an adult anymore, but he isn't a big baby talk person like jaemin is
the nicknames he uses for you are very classic so he can use them both in public and in private (doll, dollface, princess, etc.)
surprisingly into his role as cg? like, he has a chart set up for you and everything. if he's abroad/not around, he'll call you so you can place the gold stars yourself in his behalf
another manners enthusiast
uses titles for himself and expects you to use them too
"'can i have dessert please, what?', princess? what word is missing from that sentence?"
doesn't say much but always keeps an eye or hand on you in public.
bro is nonchalant (for the most part. just don't read his locked notes)
"a gift? i didn't buy you anything" LIAR. "what pink box? have you opened it? bring it over here. let me see"
he's very patient, just stern since he has strict boundaries and rules. constantly encouraging you to have firm boundaries as well.
"is this ok?" "do you not like this?" "how do you feel about that?"
go-to punishment is writing lines. always gives you a yogurt or some other snack when you finish. mostly does it for himself, he doesn't like staying on the subject of punishment/bad behavior. there's better things to do in his opinion
his favorite activity to do with you when small is your text message conversations. no words, no talking, just a photo message from you (!!!! look what i'm doing !!!!) and a photo from him in response (!!!! good job i'm so proud of you !!!! here's what i'm doing !!!!)
park jisung (∩˃o˂∩)
a lot like mark, not a fans of titles or nicknames
more of a listener. has lots of questions but doesn't want to interrupt the groove with which you're explaining the lore of equestria so he just nods his head in hopes that he'll understand with time and context
the one who would adjust the fastest to learning about your age regression out of all the dreamies. give him five minutes and he'll be like "...ok. wanna watch tv now?"
jisung is so !!! silly !!!
a goofy boy. he loves making exaggerated reactions and expressions to make you laugh
"gah-!" you've hit him with an invisible arrow! jisung holds his chest, stumbling back to slowly fall down onto the floor. very very slowly. "you've shot me... i can feel my life force leaving me... why... would you do this...? bleh."
kind of has a sixth sense for you. if something triggers you and makes you slip in public, he's like a cat that heard something no one else can.
pulsing your hand in his to get your attention only for you to avoid eye contact is a dead giveaway. he might not always be able to leave the event, but he makes sure to give you a break of just you two. breathing exercises, grounding techniques, he also lets you play with the plush toy keychain he bought for occasions just like these.
the first time you shutdown verbally when small, jisung panics! he's running around looking up on the internet how to 'talk without talking'. now he's a baby sign language expert. good job, you! /gen

Hater Comments - A Debate With r/mendrawingwomen
Those who read the post on Femuscleblog know my arguments. I wanted to post the exchange here to show how the blog gets mischaracterized. A Reddit group that is supposed to be so "progressive" actually has a problem with women being drawn differently from the norm. Nothing Femuscleblog did was wrong . The only error was cross posting. One mistake should not constitute a ban. The majority of Femuscleblog focuses on bodybuilding, but is not a fetish site. Other sports are mentioned and their are topics related to sports science. If it was all men on the site no one would call it fetish. The Princess of Prowess is a fun webcomic and its unfortunate that the Reddit group ignores it. The correspondence from the moderators show a level of illogic and falsehoods.
"Literally, like, the first panel is her bulked up and regardless her body is drawn with the male gaze in mind even when she’s not muscular."
"I didn’t say muscular women were a fetish just like I didn’t say feet themselves were a fetish, but when you’re posting fetish content onto my sub as well as exploring fetishistic subs, it’s hard not to draw conclusions."
"Much of it is pictures of bodybuilding women. Kink isn’t sexist, but it’s akin to having someone with a blog solely dedicated to feet. Like yes, maybe they’re just interested in podiatry, but that’s not the most likely scenario."
"I’m looking at your posts. There’s nothing wrong with having a muscle kink, but we don’t allow kink on our sub."
"It’s very clearly a fetish blog. Nothing wrong with that, but fetish art doesn’t belong in our sub."
"I checked in with another mod. We agree that your being a fetish blog means you weren’t in our sub in good faith."
The most ludicrous comment was "you can have a story that empowers women with artwork that degrades them." That is contradictory. If a person was truly anti-woman they would definitely not have a woman be a main character or a hero. They would be regulated to stock characters or a role of limited significance. The moderator's response was " the fact that you’re using literally one of the most common excuses for artists in our sub says a lot." If you cannot tell the difference between cartoon exaggeration and realistic rendition then you are not an artist. All they are is a complaining fan pretending to fight for a "just cause. " Then there is a demand that artists should not be allowed to draw their own characters a certain way : "I can’t say I recall many characters with as comically shaped breasts as hers that weren’t also written to be airheads. Also, and this is the most important part, the artist didn’t have to draw her that way." The assumption that women with large breasts and blond hair is a sexist stereotype and its shocking that a group that asserts to be feminist would express a sentiment. The demand that all art look the same or that male artists should be directed to draw women a certain way sounds more authoritarian than progressive. The moderators come off as real Karens with this statement :" why did you even post to our sub? A hundred percent you would have gotten people saying the same things I have." Reddit is a platform in which all users are free to post. Interacting with different people or discovering new perspectives should not be a terrible thing. The point of free speech is that everyone gets to express their view point. One can conclude that they are not serious about change if they decide to ban anyone who disagrees with them. There is a difference between harassment , bullying, and having a debate. The group does not really have an issue with body image conformity in art or misogyny. What they really hate is that men are drawing women. Now, if it was the reverse many could see the issue with that. Dolores Dulac is not a representation of sexist caricature or sexualization. The Reddit group just imposed those concepts on the drawing. Nothing is ever going to change if you attack artists who do something different with their characters. Muscular women are not kinks or fetish material. Princess of Prowess is just a fun comedy and fantasy adventure. There is a reason Reddit gets a bad reputation. It is because these groups are toxic. The r/mendrawingwomen group can be added to that list.

DISCLAIMER! This was written by a human being (me) and no A.I. was used (or harmed) in writing it. 😂 However, the photo was. I can confirm I do not do photoshoots with cowboy hats on…anymore! 😉
Tumblr media
Anyway…👇
Best ways to overcome the inevitable “text based information saturation” that’s coming in 2023?
1) You can’t fake class. Know your stuff and show it. You must show it. Be confident. Use live video, share tutorials, real life stories and examples. Shopping channel style.
2) Show emotion. All business is H2H (human to human) manually intervene when it matters more than automation. Customer service, surprise and delight. Positive vibes.
3) Don’t jump all in on ChatGPT. Nobody knows what restrictions might come into place and the shame that will arise if there ends up being an exposing of “shortcut” copy. Especially when it comes to SEO.
4) It’s a chat bot. It’s not Ultron (yet) and let’s never let anyone do that. We need governance..
so yes it’s impressive but if you have access to it, so does everyone else. Including those competitors of yours that are just way uncool. Would you want a similar content approach as them? NO! You’d want to better it.
5) Google knows everything. It probably knows what colour pants you have on. So If it knows you’ve used ChatGPT, it knows if you’ve copied and pasted it, it knows if (and probably who) you’ve emailed it to, so it’s not hard to trace back and flag that it’s A.I. copy on that “SEO blog post.” This could be a cancer to a companies Google ranking and relationship.
6) I’ve been geeking out on it for 2 weeks and the best use so far has been to help me pack out sentences. I get impatient and make scrappy notes. ChatGPT makes my bad bullet points come out as a well writtten sentence to go in a report. Now THAT is a practical application. I have little patience for those that are “cashing in” on the views to videos with titles such as “best ways to make money with chat GPT.
7) Nobody wants Ultron. Please can we make sure that’s clear and under control? Cheers.
8) What’s impressive at first, becomes boring when everyone does it. Have your fun, but don’t rest on your laurels or you’ll get left behind.
9) Always remember, WE program these things. They are TOOLS. We use them how we are fit. So don’t be a d***. Use it for good. Don’t use it to cheat. (Or pretend you made something (especially get paid!) when really it was available for anyone to attain with the write question…
10) Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.
So there we go.
I’m all for technology and advances in A.I. to help us, but I don’t have much time for digital s***housery.
