S&S D Arriving Today!!! Ch 13 Out of Context...

[canisalbus]

Hello! I hope I won't sour your mood with this ask but I have been thinking a lot about your gay dogs this month especially.

I'll just try to keep the context short but in general I'm someone that has accepted being romantically undesireable. It was hard but in the end I have built my life just around me, my humble family and at this point in time I don't even think I have the time for a partner. And considering that it's the love month and a lot of people are preparing to celebrate it with their SOs I assumed that, actually, this is a thing that I sort of have in common with Machete.

From the miscellaneous lore on your profile I see Machete as someone that also has kind of rejected love. That also has built his life around his job, possibly hobbies, his family or mentors (depending if we're talking about canon or modern au). Who kind of forgot that relationships are a thing and that people bond with others in that way. Well, at least he did until meeting Vasco.

I just love thinking about their awkward beginnings. Machete being 100% sure that Vasco is just joking, maybe even sometimes teasing him (in a friendly banter type way) or just explaining to himself that all that kindness and interest is just him being a very considerate friend. And then we have Vasco that just tries to be subtle, as if he was trying to pass a fawn without it noticing and running away, but also with time gains confidence and tries more risque moves. Vasco being all smug and Machete being flustered when their hands or shoulders or tails brush in passing. And then when both are sure of their feelings we have Machete who has to choose between God and his love. Who, at first, unwillingly accepts that divine wrath will be worth their brief love.

I just love your boys. I swear they are all the love supply one might possibly need

Thank you for such a long and thoughtful message! I don't know why you thought you might accidentally sour my mood, I'm utterly delighted whenever I hear that someone has been pondering my little guys (rotating them in their head, as they say), and when they go through the trouble of sharing their findings and conclusions I'm so happy I could crawl up a wall.

I think you deciphered Machete's inner workings very well, especially those of the original canon version. The concept of love is of course prominent in Christianity, so even as a kid being raised in a religious environment that discouraged overt displays of affection and close personal bonds, Machete wasn't completely alienated from it. But it has always been a nebulous, unperceivable and unattainable thing for him. When he was old enough to lock down his career choice he readily accepted he'd never have romantic relationships, spouse or a family, and I think he must've been too young and socially inexperienced to think of it as a significant loss. Either he consciously blocked out the need for companionship by studying and working like his life depended on it, or he didn't really consider that being genuinely befriended, appreciated and loved as a person instead of a respectable and competent authority figure was even an option for him, at least not until Vasco came along.

Baby shower bingo let’s go: put me down for

“Jill isn’t there” because it was scheduled during one of her several vacations/church revival meetings

and

“Gender neutral shower” idk why but I think Heidi and Tim could go the “we won’t find out until the birth” route because then Jill REALLY can’t say much about the pregnancy

I'm totally on board for Jill not being there lol, I think it's a solid 50/50 shot if she shows up or not. If I had to guess I'd say she probably will though, only because Tim and Heidi seem like they try to include her when they can (I don't think she'd ever decide not to go herself just for appearances sake, she wants to be seen there).

If Tim and Heidi were even a pinch less Christian I'd maybe say yea to the gender neutral thing, but they're long-paneled-jean-skirt Christian. Gender means *soooo* much to them, I would be genuinely surprised if they didn't have a gender reveal, or even just a gender themed baby shower. But who knows

is it silly that i applied for jobs at pizza places so i can be like both peppinos?

honestly that's valid 👍👍👍 if the silly Pizza video game has inspired you to go on a pizza journey of your own then i'd say go for it!!

heck getting inspired to do something based on your own interests is pretty common! i had a summer job at a dog kennel once, because i watch too many pet rescue videos and love the idea of working with animals. when i start looking for jobs again i'm probably gonna try to find another animal care job, it was honestly a lot of fun!

..... where was i? oh yeah. pizza. yeah man go ahead and chase those pizza dreams though, Peppino Spaghetti will be watching over you proudly ✨🍕✨
