Tumblr media
“Ex–Excuse me?” your assistant’s eyes widened in surprise.
It was another cortisol-frosted late night in the wardrobe room thanks to the back-to-back shoots you were preparing for, but at least the superhero working for you was keeping your stress levels at a very manageable threshold. On multiple fronts. Tracking all your communications, roasting whoever was responsible for the delay in schedule on your behalf, making sure you had your daily caffeine and calorie intake…
And just being his magnificent self for your viewing pleasure.
Sure, Hyunjin was great at his job, and no matter how friendly it was, you had a strictly professional relationship, but the looks you exchanged every once in a while, the way he checked you out when he thought you weren’t looking, finding excuses to stay late just to be with you three out of five nights a week…
It was unspoken, but something was there.
One habit that he had the hardest time kicking was the way he addressed you. Ever since his very first day, it was always ‘Yes, miss’ this ‘Yes, miss’ that even though you had told him time and time again to be informal with you.
It took one of the worst Freudian slips of the century for him to stop calling you that.
“Could you pass me the summer catalog, Hyun?”
“Yes, mistress.”
As soon as the words left his tongue, he froze in his place, mind completely blank. For you, on the other hand, this was an extremely entertaining piece of trivia even though you were caught super off guard. He was struggling to properly apologize, thinking you were on the brink of telling him to pack his shit up and leave, but besides that one long stare, you didn’t react at all. You acted like it never happened. Pretended you didn’t notice how he immediately replaced his miss with boss so as not to fall into the same hellhole one more time. You were thinking about it every second of every day, but you never brought it up again. Not once.
Until tonight.
“You heard what I said,” you repeated in a serious tone, “Model for me.”
“Right now?”
“Do you have somewhere to be?”
It was 1 a.m. on a fucking Thursday, and he was sorting out clothes with you. You could have deduced the answer yourself maybe.
“Whatever you say, boss.”
“Change into these jeans,” you handed him a skin-tight pair, “then I’ll do your fitting.”
His beautiful features contorted in confusion because who the hell paired fucking Versace jeans with a simple print tee? But you were the boss. Of course you knew better. He headed into the changing cabin nearby, and when he reemerged shortly after…
It took everything in your willpower to stop yourself from openly salivating. 
Fact—every time Hwang Hyunjin strutted his stuff in the company corridors, he was committing at least one murder with how fatally attractive he was, capable of turning heads even at the most random places he went. It was a fucking blasphemy that his career choice was drastically different than what you always pictured him to be. He was just standing there, no makeup, no coiffing, nothing, yet he was effortlessly beautiful simply with the way his hair fell in front of his face.
Carnally desiring him and falling head over heels in love with him was a perpetual dilemma you were in.
You approached him for the alleged fitting, fixing his belt and waistline, making sure everything was where it was supposed to be when there was no need for any of that. He was perfect the second he came out of that cabin anyway, but anything to be this inappropriately close to him for once.
Your eyes darted to the hem of his shirt, then you slowly reached for it and started peeling it off. He just watched you in silence, lips slightly parted, anticipating what your next move was going to be. Just one look at his bare torso was enough to overwhelm you. A lean figure, delicately chiseled by gods, so damn gorgeous, but what’s new?
“Close your eyes,” you gently touched his eyelids. 
Mere moments later, he felt something cold on his skin. Metalish. Somewhat satisfying like dipping your fingers into a bag of rice. Something was cascading from his shoulders down his chest, lines under lines made of fine knots adorning his naked body.
“Who knew?” you sarcastically chuckled, “You look so fucking beautiful in body jewelry.”
He opened his eyes, and before he could even look at what you made him wear, his gaze got trapped in yours. You had taken one more step closer to him, and his heart was beating so hard in his chest that you could hear it like it was blasted from gigantic speakerphones.
“Is there anything you’d like to tell me, Hyunjin?”
“Like what?”
Your index finger started tracing the outline of his collarbones and made its way down his chest. His cheeks were burning, flushed red, but goosebumps were breaking all over his skin, making him shiver as if a cold breeze was sneaking into the room.
“Like something you accidentally called me that one time,” your touch stopped right on top of his navel, “Is that what you think of me when you’re all by yourself?”
He kept his eyes closed as you explored his body. He wanted to say something, but the total state of trance you put him in had rendered him mute. Just breathing, exhales louder than his inhales, and growing deliciously harder under that denim mask. 
“I want a straight answer from you,” you touched his chin to make him open his eyes, then stared right into his soul, “Do you touch yourself to me?”
He slowly nodded.
“Did you ever do it at work?”
A seemingly benign question, but something in his eyes shifted, and that cute, can’t-look-you-in-the-eye-for-more-than-three-seconds guy suddenly disappeared.
“I jerk off at your desk every morning before you arrive,” he responded with an odd amount of determination you weren’t used to hearing in his voice, “I’m fucking obsessed with you. Happy?”
“My shoelaces,” you looked down at your feet as if you didn’t hear him at all, “Can you tie them for me?”
Holding your gaze the entire time, he kneeled in front of you and fulfilled your request, but his attention was on somewhere else entirely. Somewhere you were hoping he would notice with his face that close to your crotch. Under normal circumstances, he would be a total gentleman about it, but when he could smell the sweet slick you were secreting because of him that up close, he didn’t even bother to hide his intoxication.
His hand moved up your thighs and landed on your ass on their own.
He was looking up at you, maybe waiting for a sign of discomfort, but you were completely enabling him. He lazily unbuttoned your pants and dragged them down just enough to reveal the sight he was seeing violent dreams about in the flesh. Never in a million years would you be able to guess your first kiss from Hyunjin would be on your pussy, too chaste for its location, but enough to make you want to burn yourself alive.
“I’ll go insane if I can’t fuck you,” he breathily hissed against your skin, inhaling your scent as much as he could. You intertwined your fingers in his silky hair and pulled it back to look into his eyes again.
“Tell me what you really want to do to me.”
He rose to his feet. You were having trouble recognizing who this man was by then. Eyes dark like bottomless pits, jaw clenched, nostrils flared like he was getting mad. He leisurely wrapped the delicate chain around your fingers, then placed his hands on top of yours.
“I wanna fucking eat you alive.”
Then he harshly yanked it to both sides to fucking break it, quite literally unleashing himself from his chains.
Hyunjin grabbed you by the nape and crashed into your lips, walking you backwards to the only sofa in the room. Once your knees hit the edge, you plopped down and watched the way this serpent stripped you bare and spread your legs apart to slither in. He latched to your clit like a magnet, sloppily making out with it with obscenely loud squelches, and every time you moaned his name, he moaned back into your pussy, making a mess everywhere. You clenched harder watching how exactly his tongue connected to your clit. How he sucked on it. How he fed himself on you like there was never going to be a second serving. And when you started moaning louder, he suddenly stopped.
“Up,” he pulled you from your wrists, “Turn around.”
You climbed on the sofa and got on fours like a mere puppet functioning on command. When you felt his tip pressing on your entrance, you tried bracing yourself for impact, but there was no way you could silence that loud, throaty moan when rammed himself inside you that hard, deliciously thick girth making you claw the backrest you were holding on to for dear life.
“I’m not even gonna ask if you finger yourself thinking about me,” he spat between his pants, “You fucking do, don’t you?”
“Yes.”
“Do you imagine me when you fuck other people, too?”
“YES!”
He tangled his fingers in your hair and yanked it back to pull you closer so that he could kiss your neck while fucking you even deeper.
“I’ll fucking do anything for you,” he loudly whispered into your ear, “Ask me to come relieve you at 4 in the morning. Ask me to come fuck the stress out of you. Ask me to get on my knees and swallow your pussy whole. Just ask me.”
He was insane. Fucking insane. His words alone were enough to get you there. Such a soft disposition, yet if you knew he was harboring this hungry maniac inside of him, you would have attempted to seduce him forever ago. 
“How about we start with a creampie first?”
You turned your head around and grabbed his nape, then kissed his soul out of him as he unloaded inside you. So thick and warm, making you regret a little bit that you weren’t able to swallow it. He carefully pulled out, then collapsed on you to catch his breath for a while. You were both laughing like idiots once your senses started to come back.
“So are you gonna keep pretending to use me as a model, or can we get straight to the point from now on?” he brushed his thumb on your cheek.
“That piece of jewelry you ruined was worth ten grand,” you chastised him albeit calmly, “No modeling necessary, but I will keep using you.”
“So I got a promotion,” he smugly grinned, “When do I start?”
You turned to your side and spread your legs to show him how his cum was dripping out of you, then pushed his shoulders down to mount those perfect lips again.
“Right now.”

Hello!!! I literally adore your art style! The way you manage to add depth and perspective to your faces without heavy use of facial planes is really impressive because my art looks similar to yours, (but without the depth) but every time I try to use facial planes it just doesn't work with my style. Do you have any art tutorials or pics with guidelines?? and if not would you ever consider making any?
once again LOVE your art your azi and crowley are just ADORABLE!!
thanks!!
Hi !! Thank you for your kind message !!
I’m afraid I don’t have any strict process that i could explain..? Except A LOT of training ? 😭 I can share how I like to train though ! (it’s often warm-ups before starting working)
- Posemaniacs !!!
20min of 45sec-1min poses every morning is a super cool warm-up, and it forces you to be quick and go to the point ! No unnecessary lines ! (Posting my sketches because i often see people who starts using it trying to do super detailed pics, with a lot of lines, and can’t finish their sketches before the time limit. Loose sketches are fine, you want to get the pose, the perspective, the overall volume, not to create a masterpiece. Posemaniacs is super rad because it helps you learn how to draw any pose from any angle. Also they have a bank of hundreds of 3D models with various poses you can move and turn how you like in a 3D space when you want a reference for when you’re drawing !)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
- Do studies from animators/series you like !
Sakugabooru is a mine of references for that ! (i do both movement studies and still of frames i find super cool/instructive) Animators try hard to convey the depth/volumes, even on simple designs, so that’s good references (and yes i’m a kameda simp)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
- Pictures of real people !/Real people from real life !!
For studying poses, clothes etc ! (Super rough and not detailed sketches like these ↓ help me a lot ! Sports references are cool ! Try to stay concise, not too many details ! It will leave you more time to do even more studies, and it forces you to find the essential points and lines of what you want to draw !)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
- Michel Lauricella’s Books !!!
Suuuuper useful !! Also always checking them at work ! (My books are at work so sending my studies as well 🙈)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
As for the style, most of the series i work on have a « simple style » (i like it when there’s not too many lines because it’s easier and funnier to animate). So i’m used to it and it’s reflecting on my Azi and Crowley i think ! If you like my style i can recommend you to do studies from Ousama Ranking, Mob Pyscho, Sherlock Hound, Doraemon, The Gutsy Frog, (and many more haha) (also of course 80’s-90’s Aoyama Gosho’s works ! Magic Kaito, Late Yaiba/Early Detective Conan ! The expressions I draw are heaaaavily influenced by it, as it’s the first thing I actively studied)
I hope it gives you ideas to dig when you want to train a bit !
Thank you again for your kind message ! Have a nice day !!

Can I tell you about the very queer game I made this Pride?
Tumblr media
In A World That Hates and Fears You, Living Becomes an Act of Rebellion.
Exceptionals is a game inspired by X-Men about and for the spaces and communities marginalized peoples make for themselves. Play as a Geno, one of little less than 0.5% percent of the population that has gone through a mysterious process called Claremont-Simonson mutation, as you try to navigate a world that won’t make room for you. Exceptionals is a game about what the mutant metaphor means to you and the different lenses through which we view it. Punch back and build something of worth together in this narrative tag-driven tabletop role playing game. 🧬Features Open-Ended Character Creation🧬 Mix and Match between (23) open-ended but guided protocols. Answer questions to create high concept and unique super powered characters where the only real limit is your imagination. Get invested in who you make as a whole person, and not just a set of powers. Build a Community 🧬Create a living and dynamic community space full of colorful characters. 🧬 Grow your base as an anchor for other geno and help fill it with the resources they and you need. Understand how your actions effect others and gain trust through the bonds mechanic. It’s a game where you get stronger by growing your community and heal by being part of it.
🧬Comic Book Storytelling 🧬 Play as a creative team of writers and editors working to tell the best version of the story you can over time and storyline-based experience to model changes of the status quo and creative direction. Enjoy panel based action pacing and the ability of characters of all power levels to coexist and carry the same amount of story weight.
🧬Not Pain Tourism 🧬 While Exceptionals offers a number of places to push back, we understand and recognize that the most important part of a punching bag is that you choose to hit it, even if it’s not at all. We recognize not everyone gets to set the issues that the mutant metaphor is used to talk about down when they leave the table and offer many ways to tell stories outside of a lens defined by pain. We also put an emphasis and mechanical weight on the importance of joy and celebration. 📚You can buy the Core Book here:📚 https://bramblewolfgames.itch.io/exceptionals 📚You can buy the Expansions here:📚 https://bramblewolfgames.itch.io/exceptionals-expansion-bundle 📚You can buy the bundle with everything here:📚 https://bramblewolfgames.itch.io/exceptionals-expansion-bundle I didn’t go out with the intent of making this a very queer game. Not explicitly. I started making games because  I got frustrated waiting to feel seen or acknowledged. Another game got me mad about using my peoples stories to be transphobic, to be racist, to be ableist. Nevermind my people have more than two genders traditionally and faced a genocide. That was too much for me. I said this was enough and the quite indignities I suffered to feel included wasn’t worth it. I could do better myself.  So I set out to make a superhero game. I hated just about every comic book game on the market. It never seemed to capture what I did like about big hero comics with high concept storytelling and powers and couldn’t care less on a mechanical or narrative level about who this person was outside the mask. More focused on bashing action figures together and golden age pastiche that doesn’t really reflect the decades of character and genre developments that have happened since then. I later found games that do it better, but I was dissatisfied... I chose x-men for the homies. I’ve always been an x-men fan. A lot of people my age were. My first action figure was one of rogue I got at a garage sale, where she then went on to fight many a play-dough monster. But for many of us it was the first place we were allowed to be heroes. There are no natives on the 90′s x-men team. But I had uncles and older kids all too eager to tell me about Forge and Warpath (I hate that name) and my favorite Dani Moonstar (I ain’t the biggest fan of that name either, but she’s the closest thing mainstream hero comics have to a good NDN).
After that, things just kinda flowed from there. The X-men have such a focus on community. It’s “comics greatest soap opera”. It can be messy, complicated, beautiful and life-affirming all at the same time. They take the time to play basketball, go to the mall, and have birthday parties as they grow. Two of my favorite x-men comics aren’t about fighting at all. One is framed around a sleepover some students have, and another is about a wedding and framed around everyone filming their part of the wedding tape.
So I started thinking about the communities I’ve been a part of. A big core of the game is informed by my time and the people I met in these sort of spaces. As a native, as a queer person, as a disabled person I’ve been both someone who needed them and someone who gave back.
Which suited x-men just fine. X-men has cared about that sort of thing from about X-men #3 with the first appearance of The Blob, establishing it’s tone of sympathy and mutants as a minority analog.
Tumblr media
I just kept going and I didn’t stop. And apparently I did a good job. Someone out there has been using my game as game-therapy and community outreach in a gender health center out in California. I got a lot of kind words for the game too (which is good, because I spent 3 years on it).
KUDOS
-As featured on; io9/Gizmodo, Kotaku, Listen to Theses Nerds, Team-Up Moves, Yes Indie'd Pod, Team-Up Moves, and The Voice of Dog -#1 Best Seller and Popular on Itch.io in both Analog & RPG Games, Sept 2021
Listen to the Team-Up Moves AP Here!: https://teamupmoves.com/runs/exceptionals "Exceptionals is a beautiful, brilliantly designed superhero RPG. It's truly a masterpiece, and if you haven't checked it out, do yourself a favor." -@PartyOfOnePod
"This thing COOKS, Sahoni doesn't just tap into the queer/minority readings of mutants, but also ties in the weirdness that really gets my mind racing when it comes to X books." -@froondingloom 
"A refreshingly different game, that strikes a good balance between unlimited player freedom and solid guiding handrails. Really gets at the full potential of what the ;mutant outcast heroes' genre should be about: found family, building communities, and lives lived to the fullest despite being lived in defiance." -@guywhowrotethis 
"The whole game oozes love for its inspiration while also going further than they dared...." -@Phoenix24Femme
"Astonishing! Uncanny! All-New! And all other X-Adjectives available. This book gets why one would want to play the Mutant Metaphor in an RPG. It cleverly weaves the power fantasy of powerful individuals with the drive to do good for one's community. It's well-researched, well-written and, well, so much fun to play! This is the superpowered game I've been wanting for a long, long time. I can't wait to tell an Exceptional story of my own!" -@Kokiteno Team-up moves even made a recommended comic reading list. It has some of the best x-men has to offer and then some. It even includes that  New Mutants comic with the sleepover. They read me for filth and I love it.
Tumblr media
I hope you play my game too. I hope you like it. I hope you tell queer stories and build community around you. I hope it’s messy, complicated, beautiful and life-affirming all at the same time. Thank you for reading this. Please reblog if you can as well as share it with x-men and rpg fans in your life.

Friends, lovers... and an orange | Chapter 1
Summary: Since the day Adele was born, people had told her she was destined to fall in love with Mason. Their mothers, supermodels Elizabeth Turlingon and Toni Mount, had been best friends since they were teenagers, and according to everyone, it just meant to be. But after 25 years, nothing of the sort had happened. Nothing, until some photos and a big secret changed it all. 
Author’s note: And after almost two years since I started writing this story... it is finally live! 😅 You are lucky my perfectionist self doesn't allow me to post anything that isn't finished, because you would have have been waiting for an ending for ages, and I hate that 🙈 This is a friends to lovers story inspired by all those conspiracy theories about a couple not being able to be together because their evil management team don't allow them to, but with a twist. I hope you like it, and as always, thank you for reading! 💜
Next chapter
Masterlist
Tumblr media
Elizabeth Turlington and Antonia "Toni" Mount had been two of the most famous models in the 90's. They both got to be on Vogue covers all over the world, walked for the best designers, and became the face of the most important brands in fashion. They were, what you call, supermodels.
Best friends since they met during a casting when they were just 16 years old, Elizabeth and Toni became inseparable, and their private lives kind of followed the same path. They both got engaged and married the same year, and their first kids were born just a few months apart. First Mason, in January, and then Adele in July.
The media had gone crazy about it, saying that they were going to fall in love and get married because they were destined to be together due to their mothers being best friends. But almost 25 years later, nothing like that had really happened.
Mason, Toni's son, had decided to follow his mother's steps and become a model. Unlike many others, he had chosen to start from the bottom, doing castings like everyone else. He had wanted to make a career due to his talent and not because of his last name (he had taken his mother’s instead of his father’s as an homage), and he had managed to do it. Mason was now considered one of the most successful male models, his face basically being everywhere. Brands were fighting to have him on their campaigns, all the designers wanted him on their shows, and your party was nothing if he wasn't attending. He was THE one.
Meanwhile, Adele had chosen a quiet life. Everyone had always told her that she had gotten the best of her parents, her mother's looks and her father's brain, but she had never been interested in modeling. She had focused on her studies and going to uni, and the only thing related to that world that she liked was photography, which also was the thing that she and Mason enjoyed doing together the most. 
Growing up they weren't super close, they were just... friends. They had never been attached to the hip like people expected them to be. That, had actually been their little brothers' case. But their relationship would completely change every time there was a camera involved. 
When Adele turned eleven, her dad gifted her her first proper camera, and Mason was as fascinated by it as she was. They spent the day learning how to use it, and after getting the hang of it, their days would consist in going outside and taking photos of each other or anything they saw. A tree, a rock, the sunset... It didn't matter. They would be gone for hours, though for them time flew by.
As they grew older and busy with their own lives, they started to see each other less often, but the couple of weeks in the summer they spent together with their families were a must, and both of them would bring their cameras and go out to explore. 
"These photos are stunning, Adele" Toni said. 
"Thank you" she smiled.
"What about mine?" Mason asked.
"Lovely too, darling. But she has something you don't have."
"Thank you, mum" he said, rolling his eyes. "Though I agree. Addie here is the talented one."
"Thank you" she replied, Mason putting an arm around her shoulders and hugging her. 
Addie. That had been his nickname for her since they were kids, and everyone else in their families had picked it too. Addie and Mase, something you could still see carved on a tree in her grandmother's garden. They were twelve when they did it, and she almost killed them when she saw it.
"You know, I've been thinking and... Why don't you take the photos for my 50th birthday party?" Toni said. "I was looking for someone, but why pay a stranger when I have you?"
"That's a wonderful idea!" Elizabeth said. "Now you won't have an excuse to not attend."
"You weren't coming?"
"I... I'm just busy with..." Adele mumbled.
"With nothing. You just finished your degree and still don't know what to do next" her mum said. "She'll be there."
"Wonderful!" Toni smiled.
"It'll be a small thing, you will be fine" Mason said. "And if you need help to run away or hide, you can always count on me" he winked.
"Thank you, Mase" Adele smiled.
━━━━━━❃━━━━━━
Flashforward to Toni's birthday party. The small thing, wasn't small. At all. Adele had already taken photos of over fifty people and more were arriving, and by the time she was done with the photocall, her memory card was full.
"How is it going?"
"Shit, Mase. You scared me" she laughed.
"Sorry" he smiled, that cute dimple of his showing.
"I'm lucky I brought several memory cards with me. A small thing, you said?"
"Yeah… You know my mum" Mason replied, scratching the back of his head. "Do you want to have a drink or something before going back to it?"
"Sure" Adele said. "Just let me put my camera somewhere safe."
Once they were done with that drink, it was time to go back to work, and she filled two more memory cards before Mason went looking for her again. But she just couldn't stop taking photos of all the guests and what they were wearing, of them dancing, talking, drinking, laughing... They all were captivating.
"Mum wants you with us for the cake."
"What? And who will be taking the photos?" Adele asked.
"I don't know" Mason shrugged. "But she wants you there with us and your parents."
"Ok" she sighed. She hated being in front of the camera unless it was Mason the one behind it. Somehow, he always knew how to make her feel comfortable. "By the way, who was that girl you were talking to earlier?" Adele had been drawn to her the moment they had crossed paths. She had the most beautiful black hair she had ever seen, and after taking a few snaps of her, she saw her talking with Mason. Or flirting, to be more precise.
"We were on a shoot together a couple of weeks ago. She's nice."
"And she fancies you."
"What? Nah. She's just a work colleague, nothing else."
"If you say so... But what about that other girl? The one you were seen with the other day, the singer."
"Addie, are you interrogating me about my love life?" Mason laughed.
"No, I was just... It doesn't matter."
"I'm going on dates but I'm not dating anyone. Got what you wanted?" he smirked.
"That's not why I asked. I…"
"Mason, Adele. C'mon!" her mum called after them. "It's almost cake time!"
━━━━━━❃━━━━━━
By the end of the night, Adele had five memory cards full of photos, her feet hurt like hell, and she was slightly tipsy. 
"Do you think your mum will mind if I don't have the photos ready right away? I think it will take me days to go through all of them and edit them."
"Yeah, don't worry. Take your time" Mason said while helping her pack her camera. "And if you need an extra pair of hands and eyes, just call me. I'm free for the next few days."
"Thank you, Mase" she smiled. 
"Do you want me to accompany you home?"
“There is no need. But if you could wait with me outside until my uber comes..."
"Of course. And we could share it if you don't mind. I'm going back to my place instead of my parents."
"Worried your mum may not allow you to sleep until lunch time?" Adele chuckled.
"Exactly" he smiled.
━━━━━━❃━━━━━━
"Why is that car taking so long?" 
"I wish I knew" Adele yawned.
"Tired?"
"Very" she said, resting her head on Mason's shoulder. "And a bit cold too."
"Come here" he said, putting an arm around her shoulders and pulling her closer to him. It was something he had been doing since they were kids, and it felt natural, familiar… comforting. 
"You smell really good tonight. What perfume are you wearing?"
"Can't tell you, it isn't out yet."
"A new campaign?"
"Yep. You'll get tired of seeing my face everywhere.”
"Of seeing your face everywhere again, you mean" Adele teased him. "But congratulations, Mase. A perfume contract is huge!"
"It is, yes. And I'm really proud of this one. I actually helped pick some of the ingredients."
"You did? That's amazing! Let me smell you again."
"Ok" Mason laughed, moving his head so she could do it better.
"Oranges. Of course you had to pick oranges."
"They are my fave, and yours too” he smiled. “And they remind me of that trip to Italy, the one where we ate the best pizza ever at the beach."
"Oh my God, that pizza was so good… Now you are making me hungry!”
"Maybe we could stop to eat some on our way home. If the uber ever..."
"There it is" Adele chuckled when the car stopped in front of them. "Should we stop at Giorgio's?"
"You know the way to my heart, Addie" Mason smiled while opening the car's door for her.
━━━━━━❃━━━━━━
"Addie… Addie, wake up. Ad… Adele!"
"What" she mumbled, slowly opening her eyes. 
"Something has happened, Addie. Look" her friend Jourdan said, literally putting her phone in her nose.
"I'm not that blind, you know" she complained while picking it. "What is this?"
"This was published this morning. Is... Is it true? Did you...?"
"Did I..." she said, her eyes finally adjusting to the light and being able to read what was on the screen. "Mason Mount and Adele Turlington caught kissing! The couple was seen outside Toni Mount's birthday party sharing confidences, laughing and getting cosy before leaving together in the same car." "What the fuck?"
"Addie, are you dating Mason? I thought you didn't like him like that" Jourdan said.
"What? No! I'm not dating him and I didn't kiss him!"
"Then why does it totally look like it?"
"It was the angle! I was just smelling his neck!"
"You what?" her friend laughed.
"It's a long story. But I didn't kiss him!"
"Well, the whole world thinks you did. And people are going nuts about it."
"Wonderful. That's just wonderful" Adele sighed. 
Knowing how much people wanted them to be together, she and Mason had always been careful around each other to try to not start any rumours. But that night, they had let their guard down, the idea that there could be paparazzis still waiting outside never crossing their minds. And now, what they had always feared, could have started.

☆彡 -`, why building your dr around a partner could possibly be a blockage ꒱ 𔓘
ʚɞ゜・゜this is something i only internalized recently. on social media, i began noticing that when anti-shifters decide to run their mouths, they usually attack us or call us delusional for scripting popular celeb/character partners first. that means that the shifting content locals are exposed to first is about significant others and dating in other realities.

💭 i started thinking .. why? why is 90% of shifting content i see about couple scenarios, s/o faceclaims, etc? why is recent shifting culture so based around dating and finding love in other realities? lately, i realize i've also been affected by the content i see so much. i have only one dr where i don't have an s/o, and it's my self care dr. i felt & still feel like i had to be dating someone in every reality i wanted to shift to, and if i didn't, i'd be missing out on something.

💭 i’ve now realized that this way of thinking could possibly be a blockage. when you build your entire dr around a person, you neglect the other important parts of shifting to a real place. when you shift in, you won't be spending 24 hours a day with your s/o. even if you did, you'd quickly get tired. (i know, getting tired of THE namjoon or THE beomgyu sounds crazy, but they're people just like us. don't put your s/o on a pedestal once you shift in, that's unhealthy for both of you (ˊ‸ ˋ )...)

i had to take a step back, and ask myself realistic questions like: ➴ "is this a dr where i have the time and energy to emotionally support my s/o?" ➴ "will our relationship be healthy in the long run, taking our lifestyles into account?"

— ꒰ ♡ ꒱ ˎˊ˗ there was some discourse over this on tiktok (as always🙄). people were saying, "if you think your relationship is/will be unhealthy, just script it never becomes that way and you both love each other wholeheartedly forever."
💭 i don't want to make this complicated by getting into my beliefs about scripting, but simply put: your s/o is a real person, with real emotions and feelings. i can't stress this enough. you can script that they love you forever, but if both of you are in an environment that is busy or constantly changing, that will affect the dynamic of your relationship no matter what you script. it doesn't mean that they'll stop loving you, but like any normal relationship, the circumstances have to work out.
💭 furthermore, if you script that they love you forever no matter what, that could become a burden for you. what happens if you lose feelings, want to pursue other dreams, grow emotionally exhausted, etc? scripting relationships is a super sensitive thing imo, but shifters kinda gloss over it. it could unintentionally lead to traumatic experiences in your dr, so pls be careful pookie!

➴ what circumstances make for an unhealthy relationship? i'll use one of my drs as an example: my rich & famous dr.
💭 i'm a world famous model and actress in this dr, with a number of amicable breakups from before i shift in. naturally, i scripted that i start dating one of my biases, and everything seemed perfectly fine until i started truly getting into the headspace of this dr. i began visualizing my day to day life, and not once did my relationship cross my mind.
💭 i scripted a packed schedule full of fun things i've always wanted to do. photoshoots and movies and exclusive parties and secret friendgroups - literally everything that makes a glamorous lifestyle. i scripted that the only day i have off completely is sunday, for relaxation, self care, and sleeping in.
and then, i started thinking about my partner. ➴ "when will i see her next?" ➴ "what will we do when we're together?" ➴ "are we both excited to see each other?"
when i answered these questions honestly, i realized most of them were negative.
➴ "i might not see her for a one or two because of our overlapping schedules." ➴ "we might go on a date, if she's tired we can just hang out at home." ➴ "realistically, no.. we'd probably both be tired, even if we meet up on an off-day because of our exhausting work weeks."

💭 when i shared my thoughts to some shifting friends, they just said "script that your workload isn't as much." but.. i don't want to? i enjoy the realism of being tired after a long day. it's like proof i truly worked, and everything isn't just a dream. i could script that my schedule is more spread out to make time for my s/o, but then we come to my point:
💭 i dont want to change the entire structure of my dr just to have a partner. if my s/o doesn't fit into the dr i planned, i don't want to squeeze them into it. to me, building your dr around having an s/o feels wrong and unnatural. i notice shifters tend to forget: you're really truly actually going to this place. you have your own life to live, things to do, etc etc. don't let having a partner overshadow the experience of shifting.

💭 when it comes to actually fixing the issue, it may feel weird to delete an entire person out of your dr or become strangers w/ them - so just change your relationship status. in my fame dr, i re-scripted my former s/o to a person i'll meet and become very close friends with. if it turns into something more over time, after i shift in, that's great!! yay for me! i just don't want to feel held back by someone i should be cherishing, and instead let it happen naturally. if you feel more comfortable scripting out your relationship, then you do you!

NOTE: i'm not trying to say stop scripting significant others. by all means, script an s/o! a partner! a boyfriend! a girlfriend! a husband! a wife! a spouse! a sneaky link! anything! it's your reality, i'm not trying to take away from that fact. i'm just pointing out how shifters often gloss over the realness of being in a relationship. this was simply a reminder for those who may be feeling the same way i did, and to help those people to make the neccessary changes. if you feel that the relationship you've scripted is happy and healthy, go for it cutie! even if its not happy or healthy, but you.. want that..? it's none of my business fr 🤷‍♀️. you were warned, and you have the resources you need to do your research. i trust you!
and one more thing i should mention, i'm saying all this without even starting on how the aroace shifting community must feel abt it. if you're aroace & wanna share any comments, suggestions, or experiences, pls msg or ask !! this is something that affects most shifters regardless of orientation but aroace ones especially😭 hope yall are hanging in there..
