[loufuckers]

actually no i can't be normal and stop thinking about this post and this post and hurting my own feelings because like

here's eddie diaz who's not very good at making friends he doesn't work with and who's so repressed even the pope thinks it's a tad bit much and he's meeting this older firefighter pilot who's so fucking cool and he's got so much in common with and he actually wants to be friends with him. and eddie's never had a friend he can actually talk sports and martial arts with, someone who actually understands the trauma of being in the army, and maybe tommy also comes from a family like his that's not without love and it wasn't exactly bad but his parents never truly understood him or supported him in anything. maybe tommy is also an older brother who had to take the mantle of "man of the house" because his dad was too detached from it, had to take too many responsibilities at an early age.

and eddie just connects with this dude in a way that he's never connected with anyone besides buck and even then, there's things buck can't never understand but tommy does. so he starts hanging out with this guy, starts texting him and talking with him basically anytime he's not on call or with his son

and one day he brings up this fight he's excited for and asks tommy if he'd want to watch it with him and tommy's like "actually, i've got a mate who got me two ringside tickets for it and i've been looking for someone to go with, you'd be interested?" and eddie is over the moon about it. he's nearly giggling and kicking his feet up as he calls carla to ask if she can look after chris overnight because he's going to fucking vegas with a friend. when he arrives at harbour to get on the chopper tommy is flying them to vegas in he's just a bit disappointed to see buck is there too but it's also great because buck is his best friend and he loves him and he's the only person who ever made eddie feel this way once upon a time (and he's trying so hard not to think too much about that) so it's great they're friends too but actually, no, buck's not coming and eddie feels only a little bit bad that he's relieved about it.

so they go to the fight and it's fucking great and tommy gets into it just as much as eddie is. after the fight they go out for drinks with tommy's promoter friend and they get a little drunk and in that drunken haze he lets himself think about the things he usually tries to keep at bay. he thinks about how cool and impressive tommy is but also about how fucking hot he is, he's 300lb of muscle and the strength he's got, how easily he'd manhandled eddie when they were practicing muay thai the other day, how when he looked on top of eddie when he pinned him to the floor and how eddie had wanted to taste the sweat on his muscles, lick the vein in his neck, get those hands that were holding him touching way below. but he gets a hold of himself and when they get to their hotel room with the two queen size beds he makes himself stop thinking about they way he wants to touch him everywhere, find out if he can make him make some of the noises from their sparring session in a different context. tries not to think about how his cock would feel on his hand, how tommy would look as he came.

so anyway, they get back to LA the next morning and eddie tries his best to pretend he never thought any of that and then the basketball game from hell happens and tommy tells him he's gonna talk to buck, try and make peace and eddie doesn't think twice about it, they're both his friends and they would get along well. when he sees them hanging out at the restaurant he pretends that what he feels at the pit of his stomach isn't jealousy, and later that week he only wonders a little bit if marisol being a nun before truly is the only reason why he can't have sex with her anymore, if the fact that sometimes when he sinks into her deep in his brain in a corner he never goes to he thinks about a different person, one with broader shoulders and strong pecs instead of breasts isn't part of it too.

and then he's in buck's kitchen and buck's telling him "it was a date" and when eddie asks "wait, tommy's gay?" it has nothing to do with buck and all to do with him knowing in an instant that if he'd known that back in vegas he might have risked it, might have followed his deepest desires and touch tommy like he wanted to. but now his best friend is talking about him with that doe eyed look in his eyes and eddie knows that means he really likes him and eddie does his best to push his own feelings aside because that's what he's good at and buck needs him to be supportive, that he's being vulnerable and confessing something scary to him and eddie wishes he could be like that, too, so he tells him to call tommy even though eddie wants him to do the opposite, wants to be the one tommy kissed in the kitchen and took on a date

he's not lying, exactly, when he tells buck he also likes tommy but not in that way, because whatever buck feels for tommy can't compare to what eddie's going through. he doesn't know if his desire outweighs the shame, doesn't know if he'd be able to be like buck and jump straight into it with blind hope, he knows he'd never be able to talk about it tho. not for a long while. and when he goes home that night and he's laying on his marisol-free bed staring at the ceiling he gives himself permission to be fucking angry that buck gets to have what he wants so bad, lets himself be a shitty friend and wish tommy maybe also wants eddie the way he wants him, want him more than he wants buck.

in the morning he'll feel guilty about it, in the morning he will be the supportive friend buck needs. but tonight he wallows in his jealousy and his anger and his shame and if he comes from jerking off a little too hard with tommy's name in his mouth no one has to fucking know about it.

[cryptidjeepers]

saying that being anti ai (ai as in generative ai art or writing) is being classist and ableist is so fucking insulting lmao i cannot get over it

Tumblr 200-Word RPGs 2023

Last November, we did an informal game jam for folks who wanted to write something for Writing Month, but would prefer to write fewer than fifty thousand words of it. You can find the complete list of participants for that event in this post here. There's also an off-Tumblr archive of entries whose authors gave permission for them to be preserved here, if any of those links turn out to be broken.

Last year's collaboration went over well enough that I thought we might dust it off again this year. To be clear, this is just for fun – it's not a curated jam, and nobody's judging winners or handing out prizes..

If you'd like to throw your hat in, just follow these steps:

Step 1: If you're unfamiliar with 200-word RPGs, read a bunch of last year's entries (linked above) or browse the 200 Word RPG Challege archives at https://200wordrpg.github.io/ to get your brain-meats properly configured.

Step 2: Write your own 200-word RPG. If you're not sure whether you have 200 words or not (and with RPGs it can genuinely be difficult to tell!), you can use the word counter at https://200wordrpg.github.io/wordcount to check.

Step 3: Reblog this post and append your 200-word RPG.

Step 4 (optional): Please indicate in your post whether you're okay with having your 200-word RPG archived off-site for posterity – if you don't say anything one way or the other, I'll assume the answer is "no".

(As before, as a courtesy to anyone who's creeping the notes, please restrict non-200-word-RPG commentary to replies and tags until November 2023 is over – let's make the actual games easy to find!)

ROCK PAPER SCISSORS FOOD!

Gojo Satoru

Currently thinking of if Gojo were to participate in the rock paper scissors food challege..

Omigosh he’s a menace.

Whenever he loses, he claims that he wasn’t ready and that you pulled paper 2 seconds after he pulled rock, which is cheating. (rules only work when he’s losing by the way).

When you finally force him to accept his defeat (which took ten years off your life), he doesn’t even run all the way to the back garden gate, which was the spot you two agreed to run to, he runs like half way and calls it a day. He’s a downright cheater.

When he wins, you might as well wrap it up. He is hoovering up as much food as he can…without even taking a sip of water or anything. You dont know how he does it but you plan on writing a formal apology to the toilet in the evening.

It goes something like this…

“Rock, paper, scissors, shoot!”, you exclaimed.

Gojo gasped and pointed an accusing finger at you. “You dirty cheater!”, he voiced.

“Toru..”, you slapped your forehead. “I’m not a cheater, you just don’t know the rules of rock paper scissors. You go when I say shoot, not scissors”.

He pouted, still fully convinced that you cheated.

You two did it again and you won fair and square.

“On your horse babe!”, you let out a giggle at his defeat and Gojo groaned.

“I wasn’t ready—”.

“Start running or i’ll finish all the food”, you threatened, throwing a fry in your mouth.

Gojo deflated and started running, his legs dragging behind him. Once he did half of the run he was supposed to do, he turned back.

You threw a final nugget in your mouth before facing him to do another round.

“Rock, paper, scissors, shoot!”, this time Gojo won, and best believe he flaunted his victory in your face like a child.

You rolled your eyes and started running. Meanwhile, Gojo started scarfing down all the food, starting with a couple burgers and finishing with two fist fulls of fries among other things.

Once you finished your run, your jaw dropped open.

With his cheeks full like a squirrel with its nuts, he raised a brow.

“Wha??”, his words came out muffled.

“You’re such a fat ass Toru”, you responded, eying the remnants he left (mostly crumbs).

“You’re just saying that cause you lost”, he swallowed his food, noticing your lowkey disappointed face. He kinda felt bad even though you’ve killed him with your insult.

“Alright, i’ll buy you food, whatever you want”, he offered. “Even if it must be that expensive sushi you insist on trying”.

Your eyes brightened as you willingly took him up on his offer, but not before insulting him first.

“Thanks big back, you’re probably gonna eat that too”, you huffed.

“That was NOT needed!”.

a/n: can ya’ll tell I love bullying Gojo?

masterlist :)

going through @likeadevils incredible timeline for RED and this quote keeps bouncing around my brain. Since the release of the 1989 TV tracks ive been thinking about how taylors writing style changed so sharply between red and 1989 and I really think this is the moment that that artistic shift really started. In some of the cut tracks for 1989 (especially suburban legends) taylor has her sort of country songwriter habit of creating those sort of unweildy lyrics that can veer off with rogue syllables and rhythms, barely contained in their strict pop structures, bursting at the seams. now I live this, but a perfect cohesive pop song that does not make, and 1989s core goal was just that. The perfect, cohesive pop songs, expressing her feelings through these succinct stabs built within a pop song structure with a steady consistent beat. Heartbreak you can dance to.

I think thats why some swifties feel less "emotion" in the lyrics of 1989 or tend to underrate them a bit. Its almost a complete change in writing ethos, its so not country. its not loose and not wordy, its still sharply written and filled with grand melodrama and intimate details, but in a completely different form from before.

This led to 1989 which is in many ways a Perfect album, specifically songs like blank space and style that I dont think could have existed without her experience writing trouble and the advice given by Max Martin. Adding this to her arsenal is what pushed her from a genre mix country-pop-rock type artist to a true blue pop star.

I have more thoughts on this, and I do think this style has held her back in some ways, but theyre kind of rambly and unformed so I'll stop here but like. Im just so obsessed with how her writing methods have changed over the years. I could write paragraphs on how much shes changed just from her relatively small amount of work done with aaron dessner. Taylor is such a collaborative artist, and makes her best work when shes working with someone new who can throw an entirely new challege her way and really force her out of her comfort zone.

Shigaraki's Mall Scene is actually SUPER SAD!

I want to write some thoughts about Shigaraki's mall scene. It's always been a sad one to me.

The more you find out about what AFO did to him the more you realize that it's not the turning point he thinks it is; it's proof of his indoctrination.

When I first watched/read this scene, I always thought it was odd how Tomura shows up hating and wanting to kill All Might, and then somehow has a moment of clarity later…about the same thing?

Why would he be excited to find out that nothing has changed?

In the context of a cult though, it makes total sense.

the victim learns the doctrine and parrots it.

they are challeged by someone, and cognitive dissonance kicks in.

Tomura's cognitive dissonance moment was Stain.

Some cult victims go through "consolidation".

It's when the victim decides to take ownership of the cult's ideals as their /own/ in order to gain relief from challenge.

This is MY conclusion. These are MY thoughts and I've ALWAYS felt this way.

In reality, this wasn't some big revelation moment for Tomura. He consolidated AFO's indoctrination as his own.

That is a devastating step in AFO's favor, and that is why it is sad. Honestly I doubt Tomura had any other choice here but to consolidate for his own comfort.

And that's why mha379 is important. It's when Tomura breaks free from AFO's doctrine for good.

It's no longer about All Might or society, it's about That House. The thing that speaks to Tomura the most.

HIS thoughts and HIS hopes alone.

Okay but why do François and Arthur keep separating if they are the only ones who understand each other that well? It's their arrogant personality? Their vicious habits and need to be correct? Bc I actually see françois more aggressive and Arthur more permissive in the end which seems to be contradictory to what I see people writing in the fruk shippers. I don't get it, no hate

Nah nah all good valid question and i do agree actually on most of what you say.

They dont separate in the traditional and common way we associate humans and human relationships with. Not fully.

Lets say they spend a vacation together. They go to the beach and drink and find bars and terorrize supermarkets during their stay. They are happy and content and a destrucrive power couple. But they are still nations and nations have more responsibilities than two moddle aged human men could ever have. So they clash on a thing or two. One takes a stab at an old phychologial wound thought healed. The other gets irritated but doesnt express it (cus emotional repression is legal apparently) and he takes a jab at the other at their weak spot. And they are irritated at each other and start to bicker bc both are too hardheaded to apologize or talk like people who didnt grow up during the middle ages. Now any small mishap irritates the other. A big fight then separation. They dont see eath other for a longer period of time after that. They might hit it off again with an old friend/enemy/lover and its fine. The problem is that François knows exactly what to say and what nerve to pick and get on it to get Arthur to react as he wants. And Arthur is too much of a sarcastic person and generally a man who enjoys a good challege which he might not get from everyone he interacts with. At least not precisely the way he likes. Like Alfred, Arthur gets bored seemingly quickly with a person. Also his affection can be missinterpreted as belittlement or even a jibe or taunt. He portrays himself as polite and appropriate but in truth he is a hard man to get along with. And few people know how to deal and distinguish his comments.

So after a randevouz with Portugal whom he hasnt seen in a while, he is once again sitting at home by himself pondering what takeout to get bc who has time to cook these days. He is still annoyed with francois but doesnt think too much of it. So after a while something happens and he wants to talk to someone about it, so having all but forgotten their little feud he picks up the phone and dials the french phone number. François picks up and you can hear the irritation in the "I thought the lord is still pissed at me. What a surprise." To which Arthur responds with "Oh do shut up. Now listen I've recetly got word that......" because who can be as stubborn as mules yet forgetful as fish at the same time? These two.

I do think to a certain degree Arthur is more permissive. Especially as he got older and saw his empire sink into that ocean he loved so much. François has more of a need to prove that he is still on top of the game so he does tend to be more assertive in some situations and discussions.

Even if they dont speak to eachother for multiple years at a time, something will come that hauls them back to one another. Be it shared history, mutual understanding or good gossip.

In short, small things break them apart and smaller things bring them together.

I really wanna write something for a Courtesan!Reader where Heian Era Sukuna starts frequenting the red light district just to have intellectual conversations with them.

Maybe he first visits the brothel at the suggestion of a warlord or perhaps he overheard Uraume mension it, but eitherway he ends up going. He expects all the people to act the same; all prostitutes in his eyes. He even tries to make a move on Reader.

But Reader, being a highly sought out courtesan, refuse to let him treat them that way. They refuse his advances and Sukuna, someone who values knowledge (cause you can't tell me he doesn't), challeges them to explain and prove that they're not a common whore.

And from that point onwards, Reader reads him poems, offers physical comfort, sings and plays him instruments. Anything someone like them is expected to do and more.

And maybe when they grow to like the curse, they offer him a favour ;)
