#I wanna tag this as not safe but :(( I don't want to get banned just after getting back | Explore Tumblr Posts and Blogs

Hope it's okay to ask here, I love your blog and how you give clear, concise answers to questions without assuming bad faith so hopefully it's ok to throw my own "warning tag" question in here, TIA for the answer! So, childhood friends-to-lovers is like one of my favourite romance tropes to write in fanfic. I've done a LOT of ships with that, but I've never actually written anything more uh...spicy, shall we say. Until after the ship were both adults. I was raised Extremely Fundie and wasn't very sex positive for a LONG time as a result but now that I'm older & out of that environment I've grown a lot. So because of religious upbringing I just avoided writing smut before both characters were 18 "to be safe". In a recent new fandom I'm in I have a character who I feel like very much WOULD have explored her sexuality before she turned 18. The partner in this context is her childhood friend so they grew up together and are probably at most like 3 years apart, if that. So my question is, would I tag that as Underage because, even tho they're close together in age (ie. both "minors" in that sense) they ARE Underage or is the Underage tag on AO3 solely for Adult/Minor ships? (not judging writers of Adult/Minor pairings either, I'll add. It's just not my scene and I don't want to give people the wrong impression in the tags, either way around, whenever I inevitably write & post their First Time fic, yk?) -🌸 (hope its okay to tag this so I can maybe find it later? I don't wanna ask this off anon in case I get blasted by That(tm) side of fandom at large who might see my username and then come into my DMs/inbox to scream "P*do!!" at me, but I DO wanna be able to see the answer when it comes up, esp if I am not on tumblr the day that it does haha)

Ah. You're still thinking about that tag in a more cultural sense, but that's not what it's for. If you dig through the FAQs and such, the explanation is in there somewhere, but to summarize, it refers to:

On page depictions of sexual activity including at least one character under 18.

(So if they just kiss or you just say she had sex but you don't show intercourse, oral, etc. on the actual page, it doesn't count.)

AO3's underage tag is actually to protect users who live in jurisdictions where <18 sexytimes are banned from art or banned unless there's ~artistic merit~ or whatever. Around the time AO3 was starting up was when Australia was having a big upheaval over such things, so it was on people's minds in the Anglosphere.

Whether the sex is problematique or age gap or whatever doesn't matter. The actual age of consent or laws around sex in the real world location these characters are in, if any, does not matter. Your 17-year-old UK characters fucking still need the warning or CNTW even though that's laughable in context. 18 tends to be the age most used in international law for... like... porn star ages and such, so 18 is what AO3 went with. Never mind that it's not necessarily the age of majority or that age of consent laws can depend on partner age, etc. etc.

Unlike noncon/graphic violence/character death, this warning isn't there primarily because readers find the topic squicky.

It's a legal ass-covering thing.

Hi hello, I've got a question, what that heck happened this week?? I haven't been active in awhile and I just logged back in here to follow an artist from tiktok, and I happened to see the conservative discord server screenshots on my "your tags" section. Is possible to get the sparks note version of what happened? (Sorry if the ask sounds weird, not very good at putting my thoughts into words)

Sorry I only answered this a few days later! You might already know what's happening by now, but in case you didn't I'll give you a TLDR:

- Tumblr user alasse-earfalas makes a post on LU's main tag advertising a conservative christian LU / LoZ server. She claims to want a safe space for those with similar views. What really catches people's attention is a part of the post that speaks about "Pride ideology" and how such "predatory" views aren't allowed in the server. In the same section she talks about wanting a space where characters are not "queered into oblivion." The vibes are utterly rancid.

- LU fandom immediately begins spiteposting. Everyone and their mother starts making LU queer headcanons or posts showing their support for the queer community. The memes flood in. "Queered into oblivion." is immediately reclaimed and added to people's lexicons. People are speedrunning how fast they can get banned off the server. There's almost a unanimous effort to make fun of bigots.

- Further controversy ensues under the surface. As it turns out, several religious people in the fandom had been interacting with Alasse and other people in the conservative server. It was impossible to know whether or not they shared similar views, but you can't blame people's caution. When questioned whether their blogs were safe for queer people, some gave very vague answers that pretty much dialed down to "I love everyone" or "I don't wanna talk about it." Neutrality in such instances is not reassuring for queer people, especially when the other side is claiming we are predatory. Afaik some people have redacted their statements or gone on to further clarify things. But some people still take a firmly neutral stance on the matter. (Don't ask who I haven't been following closely enough to know).

- A few days later Alasse comes back with a follow-up statement addressing the server. She pulls a mix between "gay people I respect VS gay people I don't respect." and "I'm not homophobic I have a gay friend." By stating that the server is not homophobic, but simply does not support the pride movement. Which is allegedly pushing to show porn to kids in school. When asked for a source on such a shocking claim someone on the server cites Fucking Matt Walsh rather than a non-biased and or scientific article. The transphobia also pops out when she claims the pride movement is trying to push surgeries on children (It's not. Children do not get gender realignment surgeries. You can find this out from five minutes on google). Addressing "queered into oblivion." Alasse goes on a rant about "queerwashing" characters, stating the Links are canonically straight and making them queer invalidates their identity. Alasse conveniently forgets that Nintendo has never canonically given Link a partner. She also forgets that bisexuality, asexuality and other sexualities that may include romantic attraction to the opposite sex do, in fact, exist. The rest of the post is whining about people joining the server to troll and basically just her reaping what she sowed for advertising on Tumblr Dot Com.

Aside for further outrage and memes, that's pretty much where we're up to so far. Things are dying down and hopefully the bigots will keep to their own corner and or fuck off from the fandom entirely.

#askbox #long post #Fuck it I'll tag as LU for anyone who hasnt been keeping up lol #linked universe #feel free to add any tidbits i missed

Re your tags on the ask post: PLEASE DO TELL ME ABOUT YOUR WRITING. You deserve to gush about your creative things!

AHHHHHHH THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

So I have many novels in the works, but my most important one by far is Just Another Tomorrow which I've been working on for over a decade at this point. I started it as an escapist fiction when I was in high school and it has morphed into a novel about life, therapy, found family, and other strong topics such as familial abuse, drug abuse, teen pregnancy, hate crimes, unorthodox coping mechanisms, and what love really means.

Maddie, a 17 year old, has been stuck with her abusive father since she was 4 years old. She was told her mother walked out on her and her father (truth later reveals she committed vehicular suicide). In her freshman year, she meets Cameron, who notices how solitary she is and tries to become her friend. He learns about her home life and becomes determined to get her out of there, by any means necessary.

The book starts on the night they run away, and follows them through their road trip. The book is told from Cam's POV, he is a very unreliable and biased narrator, but he's also a 19-20 year old dumbass who of course has privileges he never considered (two parents, nice house, stable jobs, etc), so he learns A LOT through the book. Between chapters, we get excerpts from Maddie's diary, to show her perspective on things. We learn about their history together through flashbacks, shown through Cam's POV as well, because the novel very much follows his train of thought (poor undiagnosed ADHD man). So basically something triggers the memory in the book and it goes into the flashback, it's very fun.

Anyways they're just trying to stay away from their hometown until Maddie turns 18, so that legally they're in the clear from her father. However, they run out of resources and they don't know what to do, so when they're stopped in a small town in Arkansas, he's trying to get some cans of soup and peanut butter, and an older couple comes into the shop and notices him. This is Rob and Edie, cofounders and current owners of Summerfield Family Campground. Edie asks if he needs help, and he nods, on the verge of tears, because of course this was his idea, he was supposed to have all the solutions, he was supposed to help Maddie, and now he's struggling. So they couple offers help, Cam and Maddie follow them to the campground, to a smaller offset called Utopia. This is where Rob and Edie host their found family, all sorts of people who they've helped over the year. This includes their biological son Vinny, his husband Daryl (nicknamed Dare because in college he took every dare given to him), Jess and her toddler aged daughter, Elijah, [Wren] (I have gone through about 13 names for this character and I cannot settle on one, basically genderqueer AuDHD who was a troubled foster kid), and a few others. Ta da, found family!

Anyways, this is where most of the positive character development happens, Cam learns, Maddie heals, everyone is happy, until cops discover that Cam and Maddie are runaways and that their parents are desperate for them to come home, so they have to run again.

Later, Cam accidentally finds Maddie's diary open to a page where she talks about wanting to go home because things were easier there (it was an older entry but undated bc they lost track of the days during their trip) and he gets mad, storms off, and gets hit by a car. They're both taken to the hospital, and that leads to parents getting called and basically the end of the running away. Cam's parents arrive first and he starts explaining to them why he had to do what he did. Then Maddie's father arrives and starts laying into her, tearing her a new one, making a scene, and that's when Cams parents intervene and say she's not going with you. He's banned from the hospital and goes back home bc he didn't wanna keep paying for the hotel. Happy ending, Maddie and Cam are safe and (relatively speaking) well. Obviously Cam has a long road of recovery ahead but he's alive, so can't really be too upset at the circumstances.

There's a LOT more than that to the book, but that's the gist of it. I'm really proud of Just Another Tomorrow. Special thanks to @xmarinaryx who has seen this book from start to finish more times than I can count, and has marked up many a page with red pen.

#anyways yeah that's a thing I do #I also write poetry (not as much now but I wrote it a lot when I was 15-22)

LAST UPDATED AUGUST 18TH 2023

SOCIALS, INTERESTS, DNI PAGE, TAGS ↓

I despise tumblor. I am here anyway. I was never on twitter or Reddit shut up.

hiiii hello I have nooo clue who i am and I'm just making my way through the interwebs once in a while saying something funny. he/him and she/her pronouns please. I love movies, Wes Anderson, TV shows, videogames, art, visually pleasing sketchbook pages, puppets, animals, snazzy words, cinematography and music!! you'll see more specific examples of these things as you make your way throughout my blog.

other socials!! (soery Tumblr 😧)

Pinterest here!!

honestly if you wanna know all fandoms I'm in just check here cuz you'll find them all, plus some extras I suppose but the Pinterest addiction is real

Letterboxd :]

I have a taste in movies for sure. I don't know if it's a good one. But I do think this is my funniest platform (and I do love Wes Anderson, have I said that already?)

and I don't think anyone uses TV Time but it's the easiest for me to understand so :P

I'll add my Spotify when I've fixed all my playlists *crais*, but believe it or not you can unlock my discord by completing the sweet sweet side quest of becoming my friend so look out for that!! 🤭

Some skinny pigs to make your day better :)

(I want one sooo bad)

bc this is Tumblr I apparently have to have some kind of DNI page so just don't be horrible plss?? okay good. That means no phobes of any kind, pro-lifers or racists, and I think everyone can get the rest. We respect all fandoms here unless it's a toxic one or if you yourself is a toxic fan. For example TMNT-cest will get banned immediately. Other than that I hope everyone feels safe and comfortable here!! We're not scared to be cringe on this page because what a dumb word really.

(I'll put links to my tags here when I've fixed them but tbh I really don't know how anyones read this far)

okay I think I've written enough so that people think im a serious Tumblrer now.... don't worry guys I'll Troy and Abed myself out..

(IM THE ONE IVE BEEN WAITING FOR)

hey can you please not main tag or at least add an nsfw tag for people to filter the pin ups

Listen, I get where you're coming from, and I do want to help, but 2 things.

1, these pin ups are literally on par with Markipliers tasteful nudes calendar, which he has shown on his YouTube before. So this is not exactly completely removed from the actual content he produces. Hell, there was another sketch I was going to post based on the unus annus video where they're posing nude for art, and blurring out his junk made that allowed on YouTube.

2, the NSFW tag no longer exists on tumblr. All that shits banned. I would put the tag if I could but that's just an insta wipe and delete as soon as I post. That was tumblrs shitty moderating first way to get rid of porn was just delete anything tagged nsfw.

I'm not denying, pinups are generally by definition "not safe for work", but they are also not nude, and almost all the works from the original art meme are from the 40s-60s so I didn't think they were too inappropriate to be on tumblr. I wish tumblr didn't block the one helpful tag in this scenario because your right, if you don't want to look at it, you shouldn't HAVE to but I do want my art to reach the people who wanna see it.

If you want to filter the pin ups, I would highly recommend blocking the tag #Pin up

#i can make a psudeo tag for anything inappropriate but that wouldnt solve the problem #just give some people who follow me a new tag to block #birb babbles #dude i just tried to put in tasteful n*des in and guess what else is banned

Since that other anon was kind of a dick and didn't really explain themselves, I'll do it. I assume they have certain tags blocked so that they don't have to see it, so unfortunately banners won't really do the trick for them if they don't wanna see mature posts at all.

That being said just tagging something as "nsfw" will make it so that it doesn't show up in ANY Tumblr tags ever since Tumblr banned it.

If you do wanna make an conscious effort to tag, i recommend using #nsft (Not Safe For Tumblr), #ns*fw (or any variation of the tag with the * in-between the letters), or good ol fashioned #lemon.

You can also use the somewhat recently implemented Community Labels feature to make your post as "mature"

*₊˚💬୧ no no, i understand that. i can bitch all day about things /i/ don't want to see tagged that end up not being labeled properly but be the change you want to see in the world right?

the reasons you listed are one reason why i don't tag work as NSFW specifically and why i don't use the community labels- they limit the reach of my work and can end up getting MY account flagged. lemon could be an option but there won't be a way to please everyone and i wish tumblr made it easy for NSFW content creators to tag their shit without getting penalized for it. but i really did think adding a banner was enough, kind of like how ao3 has the warning sign before you click on certain fics.

i care deeply about keeping my content away from minors and by extension, protecting those that don't want to see it at all. i'll look around and do research and figure something out.

GUIDELINES

Rp is my hobby. I will not tolerate being pressured for replies in any way, shape or form. Time between replies and length may vary.

For my own comfort, i do not follow blogs without a rule page or blogs who do not feature bios for their oc. Before following, i need to go through the rules and also see if i can picture my muses interacting with yours in a way that won’t be necessary for me to give up on key moments that forged their character.

When it comes to shipping, i go by the chemistry between muses and writers. I will not be shipping with someone i do not talk to ooc because plotting is essential when it comes to shipping with my muses. i need to feel the other writer and i are vibing on the same creative wavelength to start considering romantic shipping between muses. I much prefer any kind of dynamics over romance.

If i follow you, please don’t be afraid to reach out. Please, do not attempt reaching out if i don't follow you back. and following and unfollowing is SO NOT the way to get my attention (this will earn you a hardblock). if you’ve been following me for a while and i notice we’ve never interacted, i will most likely soft-block for my own peace of mind. This place is my safe space and i wanna be mutuals only with people i write with. If you don’t intend to write with me, please do not follow, it’ll save everyone involved some precious time and anxiety. I soft-block all personal accounts that follow me (again, for my own sanity) unless i’ve been made aware they are main blogs attached to rp blogs i interact with.

If you wanna drop a thread or if you feel uncomfortable with the way things are unfolding in said thread, please reach out and i’ll be happy to adjust. My priority is your safety, always. Rp is for fun and, if you’re not having fun, then there’s no point in it.

Triggers will be tagged TW TOPIC. Please, let me know if you want anything tagged. Currently tagging: tw sa, tw sexual assault, tw abuse, tw child abuse, tw ed, tw eating disorder, tw pregnancy, tw fire.

Do not use me as a therapist. Do not trauma dump on me. I’m currently healing from my own traumas and i’m trying to be kind to my body and mind. If you cross that boundary, i will have no choice but to block you.

ooc interactions take a lot of my mental energy. I’m highly selective with whom i talk to ooc because of bad experiences. I’m not intentionally ghosting anyone or being hurtful by not responding to certain messages, i promise. I’m just protecting myself and preserving my safe space.

Fuck J/K R.owling. I don’t wanna hear about her work or the new HP merch you just bought or got as presents. And i don’t want anything related to this universe on my feed either.

Please, do not interact with this blog if you’re under 21. I don’t really do NSFW content but i’m still not comfortable with minors following me because predators will be looking for minors who befriend adults easily online, even in the rp community. Stay safe.

Anti-Plec but i'm willing to interact with muses from the various shows (TVD, TO, LEGACIES) if the person i’m writing with is also anti-plec. I’m okay roleplaying with an Alaric Saltzman if he’s been recasted and the character is canon-divergent and/or mostly headcanon-based and/or if he’s book-based. But, please note that grishaverse muses will only be interacting with canon or original characters from the grishaverse.

BANNED FCS: ANYONE DECEASED, AMBER HEARD, MATT DAVIS, NATHANIEL BUZOLIC.

ABOUT THE WRITER

Sage, 28 yo and use they/them pronouns. Ace, queer as fuck and polyam. Struggles with depression and anxiety. Writer and larper. Been roleplaying since 2008 (outside of tumblr). Nice meeting y’all! <3

Metanoia part 2

Warnings posted in the first part.

This part lacks Namjoon and is mostly a filler, but he will be back soon. Deciding on an update schedule and whether or not to tag accounts or not. Until I’m more used to posting this way I won’t be tagging people, thank you for understanding! Roughly edited.

Ava sat, twirling the ring on her left hand.

It had been a week since she had told Namjoon of the baby. He took it well. Simply nodding and smiling softly. He had stood and taken her hand, leading her to what she assumed was his office where he unlocked a desk drawer and pulled out a small black velvet box. And with a 'this wasn't how I had planned to do this....' he had asked her to marry him. Of course she said yes. Then he spent the entire night worshipping her body. The next morning she was beyond exhausted and slept the entire day.

Her parents were less than pleased, though they didn't get a say in it. Ava had told her mother briefly over the phone after Namjoon had left to America to discuss it in person with her father. Her mother didn't say much, she wasn't in a position to, she only said that she would try to come early for the wedding to be with her.

Even with Namjoon being in a different country, most of the work was still done by him personally. A lot of the wedding preparations he had taken responsibility of to make sure they would be perfect, and only left a few specifics and special touches to be done by Ava.

"Gonna sit there all day?"

"Maybe." Ava glances away from the window, grinning at Yoongi, who didn't hesitate to drop on the free couch and throw an arm over his eyes.

"Your mom should be here soon." He offered up after a moment. "You should at least pretend to be busy."

Ava scoffs, "my mom knows I'm lazy. She will see right through it."

"Maybe," he shrugs, "but it will give you an excuse to make a run for it if she starts getting on your nerves."

"Thats what you're for. And why we're not meeting here but at a restaurant." Ava stands and starts placing all the books back into their correct positions on the wall, before collect all the papers with wedding details on them and locking them in a box before setting that next to the fire place to act as decoration.

"That's a stupid hiding spot." Yoongi remarks, still not even looking. "Lazy."

"Doesn't matter." It was Ava's turn to shrug, "I just need two people not to see it, and both of those people are banned from this room anyways."

"You're not including your parents in any of the wedding details?"

"No," Ava scoffs, "why would I? If it weren't for Namjoon they wouldn't have received invitations in the first place."

"Have you sent out the invites yet?" Yoongi asks, sounding half asleep at this point.

"Most of them. But Namjoon is talking to my father in person and I told my mother over the phone. They will still get a card though, probably after Namjoon is on his way back." Ava hums, playing with the flowers in a large vase that she moved from the mantle of the fire place to the window. They were a gift from Namjoon that had been delivered that morning, they weren't the first and she knew they wouldn't be the last.

"Shouldn't you go get ready?" Yoongi finally broke the silence twenty minutes later.

Ava's nose twitched, "do I have to though? I should just go like this." She gestured to her (Namjoon's) sweatpants (that she had raided his closet for despite her closet being filled to the brim with clothes) and white t shirt that was slightly see through depending on how you looked at it. Yoongi gave a very unimpressed look earning a huff from Ava before she stood and dusted herself off.

"Fine. I won't go out looking like trash today." She grumbles, "enjoy your nap."

"I will."

Ava threw one of the couch pillows at him on her way out, receiving a laugh and nothing more as she shut her parlor door behind her.

"Would you like help Miss Smith?" Imo-ssi offered gracefully falling into step just behind her, respectfully. Ava had learned from Yoongi that her name was HaeSoo and since then had taken to calling the woman by it, despite her objections. She did compromise by adding ssi to the end, to not be rude.

"Yes please, HaeSoo-ssi." Ava nods with a smile, "that would be lovely."

It wasn't long before Hae-soo had created a masterpiece of the young woman and was ushering her towards the doors.

"Who is going with us?" Ava asked Yoongi as the man stepped from the shadows against the wall and joined her in her car. It was the same car that Namjoon had gifted her in America, a white and black Range Rover that literally sparkled it was so shiny and new.

"JK's driving and Jimin is already at the restaurant. Hobi picked up your mother from the airport and is bringing her there now. We will be there before her but just barely." Yoongi gave her the run down, glancing from his tablet to the window before speaking in Korean to someone over an ear piece.

Ava nods slowly, the team was divided up, Jin, Taehyung had gone with Namjoon to close off American deals as well as be with Namjoon when he spoke to her father and Yoongi and Jungkook had been left with her for her protection. Yoongi had dragged Hobi and Jimin into the detail when the two had showed up after their latest mission and gala coincidentally at the same time.

"Hey Noona." Jungkook grinned, hopping into the front seat. "Thanks for giving me permission to drive your car."

Ava rolls her eyes, which was seen by him in the mirror. "I didn't, don't put a scratch on it." She warns, half serious. Even if he did mess it up in any way she'd have a new one by morning, maybe even by the time she was done with dinner.

"Let's just get there." Yoongi orders.

"Let's get it!" Jungkook mumbles under his breath, a little too excited compared to the two in the back seats.

Ava and Yoongi exchange glances, Ava biting back her sigh and Yoongi quickly going back to his tablet. It would be a long night.

Finally having separated from her overwhelming mother, Ava curled up on top of the covers, hugging a pillow close to her chest.

"At least get underneath and pretend to sleep." Hobi grins, standing in the doorway and crossing his arms.

"No." Ava murmurs into the pillow. "Don't want to."

"Namjoon's going to be upset that you're not sleeping." Yoongi said closing the balcony doors of the master bedroom and clicking the lock shut.

"Don't care." Ava sighs deeply, shutting her eyes and feigning sleep. "He shouldn't leave me alone for this long then. He knows I don't like sleeping alone."

"Sounds like a you problem." Yoongi smirks, gripping the edge of the bed spread and tossing it over her half way.

"Wanna snuggle?" She grins up at him, pulling the blanket up a little more.

"And get a bullet in the ass?" Yoongi scoffs. "I think not."

Ava looks up towards Hobi, "how about you? You a wuss too?"

"The biggest." His grin widens, pushing off the door frame he flicks a two finger salute as goodbye. "See you tomorrow. Go to sleep."

"Yeah, go to sleep." Yoongi adds with a nod. "Call JK if you need anything he's probably the only one able to get away laying with you if you're man walks in tonight."

Ava's eyes brighten, "is he coming back early?"

Yoongi holds a sigh in, "probably not. But we don't need you getting anyone shot between now and then."

Ava repositions, hiding deeper in the blankets and imagining being anywhere else. Preferably not pregnant to be honest. "Ok. Goodnight."

Yoongi shuts the door behind him, leaving Ava in mostly darkness except for the pale moonlight coming from the glass doors.

It was an odd thing to crave. Wanting nothing more to be alone and nothing more than to not be alone. It was something she had grown accustomed to. Being surrounded by people around the clock but not truly having companions. She grew up in it. And since meeting Namjoon she had grown accustomed to his overwhelming presence. He drowned out her inner demons and made her feel safe again.

I am bound to apple, because it has some functions that i need to use my phone normally (i.e. system narrotor and big zoom), but oh my i am so annoyed at the changes done specifically to ios.

Why did you ban tags used to origanize posts? Why did you ban tags like ‚stims‘ or all the things that people use to bring awareness to problems sich as ‚racism‘ or ‚antisemitism‘?

Fuck you apple and your stupid censorship

This is very frustrating.

For accessibility I use Android's ability to tap 3 times to make zoom. There's also a magnifying glass option that can follow your screen but it doesn't really work for me (it takes to much space and it becomes a hassle to use).

I don't know if the system narrator is better on IOS than on Android (android has Google talk back and some other options on Google play), but I've never had an IOS device so I wouldn't know.

If you ever wanna see if you should get and Android but you need to know what accessibility options it has you can ask me. Specially visibility options because I'm also #disabled and I'm familiar with those.

I was here in 2018 when the infamous nsfw ban occurred. It was also because of Apple restrictions that the whole ordeal happened.

This type of censorship is very bad for anyone of the people who suffer abuse and want to talk about it, people who want to be safe while looking at stuff, anyone who needs help finding someone with the same problems as them. A lot of the tags aren't even sensitive topics, and some of those sensitive topics need to be talked about.

Tumblr is great because of its tag system. They are literally destroying what makes this site so unique.

I hope with all my heart staff menages to work around this (the more likely option) or we just manage to make Apple back down somehow.

Chapter 21.) Fractured.

Naia was rushed to the ER by Roman after being accidentally shot with a tranquilizer by Trent. But as Roman brought her to the ER something was wrong. She was exhibiting signs of a severe allergic reaction. But Roman didn't know what was causing it. He was thankful that Layla’s mother Joanna worked at the hospital. She would tell him what was wrong with Naia. But first, he had to deal with Trent and his crew being there.

It took all of the hospital security team and sheriff's department to separate Roman and the werewolves from Trent and his team. And that was before her parents showed up at the hospital and her mother raised hell with the staff about not wanting either of them there. As everyone waited in separate waiting areas, the tension and the air was thick. Rage, pain, shock, fear, and anxiety all mingled as each waited for news.

Roman and Trent kept their eyes on the hall. While Naia’s father had his eyes trained on the nurse's station. Laurie had her head resting on her husband’s shoulder with her eyes closed while holding on to her husband's hand. She was furious but more so she was terrified. Her daughter was in trouble and she didn't know how to help her.

The minutes felt like hours as they all waited for news of Naia’s condition. Laurie couldn't feel her daughter, no matter how hard she tried to tap into the bond they share. Finally, a doctor came down the hall with a chart in their hands. When Laurie looked up she and the doctor both recognized each other.

“You have got to be kidding me!”

“Well hello to you too Joey.”

“What are you doing at home after all these years?”

“A.) this isn't home. And B.) apparently my daughter was brought in by The Alpha.”

Joey shook her head.

“Well, this explains why I thought she looked familiar.”

“Whatever! Just tell me that you have news.”

“Well it’s good to see that you haven't changed one bit after all this time.”

“Joey…”

“It's Dr. Simpson, thank you.”

Laurie exhaled slowly.

“I do have news. But you’re not going to like what I have to say.”

“What is it?”

Dr. Simpson glanced over to where Roman and Trent were sitting. Shane rolled his eyes.

“Forget him! Tell me what is wrong with her.”

“It's best if we talk over here.”

She led Laurie and Shane to a corner of the waiting room out of earshot of everyone else.

“Her test results came back positive for a high-powered tranquilizer and…” she trailed off. It started to scare Laurie.

“What Joey? What else?”

The doctor sighed heavily.

“Wolfbane.”

Laurie and her husband both went pale.

“What did you just say?”

“You two heard me. When The Alpha brought her in, the Wolfbane had already begun to take effect.”

Laurie shook her head in disbelief. Shane stood there wide-eyed with his hand over his mouth.

“Because of the Wolfbane in her blood, your daughter went into anaphylactic shock.”

“Oh my God! Please don't tell me that my daughter is…”

“She’s alive. We had to put her under to save her life.”

“No. It can't be.”

“I am so sorry Laurie. But it is. And as you well know there is no cure for Wolfbane.”

“Not again…this can’t be happening.”

Laurie started shaking.

“I know more that this isn’t the news you wanted to hear. But the blood work isn’t lying.”

Shane steadied his wife before he spoke.

“Can we see her?”

“Yes. She’s just down the hall to the right. Room D17.”

Laurie ran past Trent and Roman with Shane not too far behind. When she got to the window outside of Naia’s room Laurie felt like she couldn't breathe. She felt like she was looking into a mirror at herself. Every painful memory of Hunt’s Peak that she ever had come flooding back. When they took just a few steps into Naia’s room, Laurie’s knees gave out on her, causing her to fall at the foot of the bed. Seeing her daughter like this made her inconsolably hysterical. And all her husband could do was try to help her up.

Shane was able to get her to the chair next to the bed. When she looked at Naia all she saw was herself those many years ago.

“This wasn't supposed to happen! Not to her!” she said as she cried.

“I know, baby.”

“My baby…my poor baby. I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!”

“Laurie, please! It's not your fault.”

She heard him but she didn't care.

“You don't understand! This is my fault! I didn't protect her! I-I-I-I failed her…”

“Baby…”

“Naia please…wake up! You have to wake up!”

Shane knew she didn't mean it but she couldn't help but blame herself.

Meanwhile, Zane had shown up at the hospital. When he got to the front desk he ran into Dr. Simpson.

“Joey I got your call. What is it?”

She glared at him.

“Don’t you Joey me!”

“What? What did I do?”

“Why didn’t you tell me that your sister was home?!”

“Because it’s a small town and you two were bound to run into each other at some point?”

That’s when she punched him in the arm.

“OW! Geez! What was that for?”

“Zane!” she warned him.

“Look I’m sorry! She and her husband showed up a few weeks ago looking for my niece.”

“That’s another thing you failed to tell me about!”

“Now what?!”

“You didn’t tell me she had a daughter either!”

“Yeah well, you’ve been busy! And so have I!”

Joey rolled her eyes at him.

“Where is Laurie? Is she okay?”

“She’s fine. Physically anyway. It’s your niece you need to be concerned about.”

Zane gave her a look that was half concerned and half confused.

“What do you mean?”

Joey took a deep breath before leading him out of earshot of everyone in the waiting areas.

“Your niece is suffering from Wolfbane poisoning. And it’s just as bad if worse than Laurie’s all those years ago.”

“That’s impossible Joey. Wolfbane was banned before Xander died.”

“You know that. I know that. And yet…”

Zane glanced over to where Roman and Trent were sitting.

“Well, that explains why they’re here.”

“Yes. The Alpha brought her in. And the Hunter…he’s the one who shot her.”

“He shot her?!”

“It was by accident. He was aiming for the Alpha when she stepped in and took the tranquilizer dart instead.”

Zane exhaled slowly.

“Does my sister know?”

“Not yet. She knows that your niece has been infected but she doesn’t know how she was infected. She and her husband are in there with your niece now.”

“It won’t take her long to figure it out. There’s only one way to be infected by Wolfbane.”

“Yes. I’m well aware. I just can’t believe this happened twice. No one here at the labs would do this.”

“Are you sure?”

“Yes, I’m sure. I run the ER. I know for a fact that the higher-ups are terrified of The Alpha. They think he’s just like Xander.”

Zane looked at Joanna and coughed awkwardly into his hand.

“Just so you know I haven't told her anything.”

“So you didn't tell her you’re gonna be a grandfather?”

“No, I didn't tell her. Squirt would lose her shit if she found out you and I had a kid together. So we're gonna keep it that way. And if she asks you…Peabody is Layla’s father.”

“Fine. Now go check on them. They need you.”

Zane shook his head sadly.

“You wanna tell her that?”

“What do you mean?”

“She's selling the house.”

“What?!”

“I've been staying at Toby’s for the last few weeks.”

“Why didn't you say something?”

“Because you would've asked a million and one questions that I didn't have answers to.”

Joey sighed.

“Still you could've said something to me!”

“Look, Naia called and said she was coming to town and didn't want her mother to know. And I knew if I told you…there was a slight possibility that you would've told Laurie.”

“And yet here we are.”

“Yup. Laurie showed up and all hell nearly broke loose.”

“What do you mean?”

“Squirt went toe to toe with The Alpha.”

Joey’s eyes went wide.

“Just like she did with his father.”

“She's gonna get herself killed one day.”

“I know.”

Zane looked over at Roman.

“Does he know about Naia?”

“No. Not yet. I’ll tell him. ”

“Okay. I'm gonna go check on them.”

“Good. They're down the hall to the right. Room D17.”

“Thank you Joey.”

As Zane went to walk past the waiting area, Roman caught his wrist. Zane swallowed hard before turning to face Roman.

“Do you know what's wrong?”

Before Zane could answer, Dr. Simpson spoke up.

“Come with me Alpha.”

Roman cocked an eyebrow at Zane before quietly following the doctor away from him.

When Zane got to the room Naia was in he stopped outside the door. He looked through the window and saw his sister huddled over Naia. It broke his heart to see her so distraught. It reminded him of the night she was here years ago. And that he didn't listen to her, that he didn't believe her then. He quietly opened the door and stepped inside. When he walked in, Laurie looked up at him.

“What are you doing here?”

“Joey called. She said you were here and I thought—”

He trailed off when he looked at Naia.

“You thought what? That I was here in a bed again just like I was all those years ago?”

“I—”

That's when Shane cut him off.

“Well, you’re here. Are you happy?”

“I didn't know Naia was here until I got here and got punched in the arm.”

“Sounds like Joey.”

“She told me that—”

“It was Wolfbane poisoning?”

“Yes. I just can't believe that it happened again.”

Laurie scoffed and Zane looked down at the floor.

“The Alpha is out in the waiting area. So is Trent. I don't think they know.”

“They were here when we got here.”

That's when they heard shouting between both sides coming from up the hall. And Laurie had heard enough.

Something inside her snapped.

It felt like a dam had broken within her when she stood up.

“You two stay here.”

“Where are you going?”

“There's something that I have to take care of.”

Zane and Shane shared a worried look as Laurie stormed out of the room. When she got towards the end of the hall, the shouting and accusations between Trent and Roman grew louder.

“This is your fault!”

“Don't blame me!”

“Fine! How about I rip your head off? Would you like that?”

Trent scoffed.

“I’d love to see you try Balto.”

They stopped arguing when Laurie turned the corner.

“Oh please don’t stop bickering on my account.”

The look on her face was a mix of rage and pain. She glared at them both with her arms crossed.

“It shouldn’t surprise me that you two are at each other’s throats. Because in all honesty you idiots are the reason why my daughter is currently fighting for her life!”

“What?!”

“Let me summarize: Naia is in a coma, because of Wolfbane.”

Roman and Trent looked at each other then looked at her.

“What is that?”

“I’m glad you asked Alpha. If you must know, Wolfbane is a poison that your father had created.”

Roman looked at her incredulously.

“Did I mention that he created it with Bernard Sayre?”

Both men were stunned.

“Judging by the looks that you both have, I assume that neither of you know what I’m talking about. So here’s a little project for you: why would Xander and Bernard Sayre work together on anything?”

“Impossible!”

“Far be it from me to agree with the mutt but he’s right.”

Laurie issued one last declaration to them.

“One more thing, as of right now both of you will NOT step foot into this hospital!”

She then turned on her heel walking down the hall. Leaving them in shock.

Adorkable

Pairing: Jensen Ackles x Reader

Summary: After you had a stunt accident on the Supernatural set, your leg is broken and you have to stay in bed while being on some high painkillers. Good thing, Jensen takes care of you. Well, in his own dork way anyways… (requested)

Word Count: 1,151

Warnings: Fluff, Dork!Jensen and mentions of broken bones

Author’s Note: Based on this request by anonymous. Can I request an injured reader x Jensen? Maybe reader falls down the stairs and breaks her leg, concussion. And Jensen trying to take care of her? Or maybe reader has come down with high fever and cold, I couldn't think of any other plot, I just wanted so s fluff with Jensen taking care of sick/hurt reader! Thanks. Thank you for requesting, I hope you like it. Show it some love, guys. Enjoy reading. <3

"Come on, sweetheart. Let's get you to bed," Jensen said after picking you up from the hospital where you had to spend a few days. You were happy to finally be home and Jensen supported you as you entered your house together. Your plaster leg made a dull noise when it touched the wooden floor.

Together with Jensen's help you limped to the stairs leading up to the bedroom. Jensen swiftly picked you up from the floor and carried you up the stairs in bridal style while your duffel bag hung over his arm. You were high on painkillers and pressed his biceps in admiration. "You're so strong!" you whispered with big eyes as your fingers closed around the hard muscles in his arm. A low laugh rumbled in his chest and you leaned your head against it to listen to the deep sound.

With one foot he pushed open the door to your bedroom, then carefully maneuvered you through the door and laid you gently on the bed. You enjoyed the feeling of the soft pillow under your head and buried your fingers in the white sheets while you sighed comfortably. Jensen cleaned up a little further back in the room and brought you a pillow. Gently he lifted your cast leg and carefully pushed the pillow under it before gently bedding your leg on it.

"Thank you." you muttered and watched the blond man with the apple-green eyes move towards the door. He pressed a kiss on your cheek as he passed by and you reached for his hand. "Don't go" you pleaded and he smiled at you lovingly as he took his hand away. "I'll be right back. I'll just get you a glass of water and your painkillers," he replied after he had freed himself from your grip and stepped towards the door. At the door he turned again and winked at you. "Don't miss me too much, baby." You snorted and with a laugh he disappeared. You heard the heavy steps going down the stairs and sighed.

That damn leg would cause you trouble for a few more weeks. It happened on the shoot for the new Supernatural episode. A stunt that went wrong had left you with a broken leg. You'd jumped off the building, but you came up with one leg off the mat. Immediately a stabbing pain had shot through your leg and it had cracked ugly, after that you couldn't put any weight on it. Jared rushed to you immediately, as did other crew members. Your character had just broken into a pathology with Sam to look for clues, then you had to flee. Misha and Jensen had been shooting on another set at the time and didn't know about it until later, then Jensen came straight to you in the hospital.

You had been playing Dean's on-off girlfriend on the screen for several years because you were both incapable of a relationship. But behind the camera it had been going perfectly for years. You had been married for almost three years now and even longer together. Sometimes you still couldn't believe how you had managed to hook this good-looking guy. The whole world wanted Jensen Ackles and you were the person who had won his heart. Sometimes in insecure moments, you didn't know what he saw in you. What did you do to deserve him? This handsome, funny and charming man who woke up next to you every day and looked at you with pure love in his eyes. You fell a little bit more for him every day, even after all this time. You wouldn't have believed you could love someone so much, but Jensen proofed you wrong everyday. The love in his eyes told you that he felt the same about you.

The door was pushed open and your husband launched a tray in one hand, a stack of DVDs in the other. The stack was swaying dangerously, but he managed to catch it just in time. He placed the tray on your bedside table next to you. "Here you go, sweetheart." He said and gave some painkillers that you swallowed down your throat with a sip of water. "Thank you, Jay." You mumbled. "Look, I brought you some chocolate ice cream. From your favorite brand. Also all the 'The Office' seasons we had in the living room." You smiled happy. He just knew exactly what you needed. He handed you your ice cream and put the first season in the player.

"There's only one thing missing, babe." You said that with a slight smile on your lips. He spun around in surprise, then looked at you questioningly. "You. Next to me. In bed. Cuddling." He laughed. "All right. Let me just turn on the show and I'll be right with you."

The mattress dropped under his weight and seconds later he was next to you. Your bandaged leg rested across his legs as he wrapped an arm around your waist, pulling you closer to him. Your head lay on his chest and you listened to his slow heartbeat as you followed the action on the TV. The constant raising and lowering of your husband's chest lulled you in as his fingers combed through your hair gently. When you were close to him, you just felt safe, loved, you felt at home.

The tiredness soon threatened to overwhelm you as soon as the painkillers unfolded their full effect. You yawned softly and nuzzled your face into his broad chest.

"You're the best husband ever, you know that?" you muttered softly into his shirt. "Uh-huh." He hummed. "I know." He grinned sheepishly at you and you rolled your eyes, though a smile crept up on your lips. "Oh, and did I mention you're the biggest dork on earth?" You retorted and he laughed. "Yes, twice, honey." "Oh...Well, just wanted to make sure." You jawned. He smiled and stood up. The bed moved under his weight. He switched off the TV and turned the curtains shut. And with that, he banned the last rays of the sun from the room. "You're tired, sleep now," he said. "I don't wanna." You protested weakly. "Stay with me." He chuckled slightly.   "I will be with you when you wake up." He promised and you knew he would keep his promise. He had never broken it in all those years. You struggled with your fatigue, but your eyes lids began to drop slowly. You nuzzled into the soft pillow. "I love you." he whispered, then you felt his soft lips as he pressed a tender kiss on your forehead. You were almost asleep now. "Sweet dreams, baby."

Oh, what is this?

*LE GASP*

What is this devilry?!

Are those female presenting shoulders!!?!

DO I SEE A BELLY BUTTON?!

BLASPHEMY!!

I came onto TUMBLR for Good, Christian, Family-Friendly content and what do I get?

A woman with no sleeves.

No I get it. The demons told them to draw this.

But words won't heal sin.

God will not hear their cries.

THIS POST SHALL WRITHE IN DAMNATION

Y E E T. *flags*

-------------------------------------

You know, I was just gonna let the whole Tumblr Ban thing go, because there isnt much any of us can really do and I find. screaming at a brick wall unproductive.

Then, what do you know, I get flagged.

This ain't the first time, it's happened on main before and far more times on my side blogs, but this is just a simple sketch, on a simple art account. I know it's not a personal attack and it's not influencing this at all, but it still pisses me off.It's just a simple bad sketch of a pose.

And for what huh? For the safety of the site? "No adult content"? "Only acceptable material"?

Even if it were nsfw, I'd be saying the same thing because this is bullshit, I dont care if the bot is still fuckin learning. This whole thing is just ridiculous.

All the porn bots are just using sfw tags and are just as prevalent as they were before.

Why not just run the website properly? Why not WORK to make it safe like they want so badly but keep what made the site good instead of some lazy algorithm? Oh wait, strike that, that'd require an intelligent use of effort

Whatever I guess, like I said before, my complaining will do nothing.

The only reason I'm keeping this blog is out of twisted sentimentality, friends that I don't wanna leave, and a fuckton of spite.

Thank you Tumblr. You have shown you care more about my bad art, suppressing women, artists, and demonizing sexuality then the actual problems.

Like school shooter blogs, white supremacists, and actual neo nazis, just to name a few.

( 1 ) NEW EMAIL. YOU HAVE BEEN SELECTED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE GRAND OPENING OF MAD WORLD. Welcome to the madness. Feel free to explore the city, have a drink, embark on a quest. Don't worry about any rumours you might have heard. We have everything under control. Hey Pace! Madworldshq is a new appless rp based on Westworld on Black Mirror, where guests are staying in an AI filled park in which a human has just been found dead. Could we please get an opinion from you? Thanks in advance!

you sure can ! i’m just gonna quickly link you here, as i gave a full disclaimer on how my opinions work and all that jazz, but tldr: my opinion is literally just my opinion and doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things, but i’m always going to be nice about things and say things as constructively as possible ! being an admin and running an rp is hard, and i truly appreciate that ! no matter what i say, you’re doing great ! p.s thank you for inadvertently reminding me to watch the new season of black mirror !

FIRST IMPRESSION. first off, my immediate thought was ‘dang, this looks good.’ even from just the aesthetic of the main alone, i’m intrigued. the colour scheme looks great ! something else i noticed immediately is that the gif icons being used on the main are a good size; i personally hate it when gifs are impossibly small and even if that’s just a personal pet peeve, it might’ve put me off a little if i were looking at the rp in a ‘i want to find an rp to join’ kind of way, and not a ‘i’m gonna see what i think of this here rp because these two kind souls asked me to.’ p.s excellent mascot choices ! both from a biased, person-with-opinions point of view, and from an objective pov as i feel like using poc on the main can often encourage people to join with more diverse fcs, which is fair enough ! i also absolutely adore admin tabs, and although it’s a tiny thing, it always makes me happy when rps have one ! my only negative thought comes from the size of the contained section of the theme; it’s a little small for my personal taste ( but again, i’m only one person ) but the size of the text is good, and i can read the posts on the main without trouble* !

AFTER LOOKING A LITTLE FURTHER INTO THE RP.the welcome page is genius. i’m immediately thrown into the world of the rp ( which is also achieved by the format of the opinion request ! ) and the warning is very much appreciated. it both shows that you care about the well-being of those checking out your rp, and that you’re serious about enforcing the 18+ rule, and i love and appreciate both of those things. *as i went further and clicked the link to read the plot, i am gonna have to admit that i added /mobile to the end of the url just to make reading it easier for me, and continued to do so while browsing the other pages.

getting to the point, i absolutely love the plot, and adore the way it’s written. i easily got a sense of the world you guys have built, but you managed to write something that does that successfully without it being too much info all in one go. while all the info on the ins and outs of the world being on one page can be appreciated, i feel like immediately being faced with a massive block of text can be off-putting to a lot of people, if that makes sense ? you guys have found a really great balance by having the basic plot be the first thing you see, and further information being linked to then read after. it’s such a good idea, and the thought and imagination put in is really evident; you’ve created something really amazing, to be honest.

when it comes to rules, i feel like all of them are fair ! your activity rule is pretty reasonable, and i like the added mention of welcoming people back but not allowing people to take advantage of that. in terms of character rules, everything seems very reasonable, and i think the rules for applying for more than one character are all pretty great, and something i’d find to be a plus if i were thinking about applying. i also love that you’re willing to put anybody on the banned list that your members are uncomfortable with, as again that shows that you’re dedicated to your members and care about their comfort and well-being ( but clarifying that you won’t ask folks to change the fc of somebody already accepted is a smart move; people can be so difficult when it comes to fcs and expecting you to make people change them after already accepting them. you guys clearly know what you’re doing ! ) however, it might be worth putting the obligatory ‘deceased people, people convicted of serious crimes, etc’ on there, too; i know it should be a given by now, but people really are fools sometimes, y’know ? the only rule that made me raise an eyebrow was the age cap being thirty-five, as i love an ‘older’ muse personally and while usually that might initially put me off, your explanation when asked about it actually makes a lot of sense ! it’s also impressive that you’ve thought about it deeply enough to come to that conclusion, and care about bubbling enough to put it in place ! although i was originally like ‘oof, why ?’ when i actually got to answer, i for sure see why and actually agree !

i always love an faq page, and everything is explained well and answered concisely. it’s one of those tiny things that’s always a selling point for me, and i’m glad to see you guys have one, especially because the way everything is answered also makes it clear that, again, you guys are good admins and care about your members and potential members. the admins were always the biggest selling point when i’d be looking for an rp, and i can say i’d be comfortable applying and being in a group run by you two from what i’ve seen. it also translates to the posts on the main; you’re just running things really well, and it’s admirable !

i love your app. having little reminders of the rules as well as some general application-etiquette is such a good idea, and going to save you guys so much tomfoolery when those apps start flying in at lighting speed ! having people provide a little bit more than the standard app is one of my favourite things to see in an app, especially because it’ll help weed out the people that don’t have a solid grasp of their character yet and will lose muse within a few days, and as an applicant i always have a love of fun creating playlists or whipping something up in photoshop or on pinterest ! also, including the ooc questions is such a good idea, and very considerate – not only does it make things easier for you, but again it makes it clear that you’re genuinely care about your members and what everyone to be included. before i keep gushing about things i love, i do just also wanna quickly add that having the example app be for a non-binary character again will help bring in more NB muses, as people will know their non-cis muses are safe and welcome with you !

other things i love and could gush about for an unreasonable amount of time: - the added extras of the playlist & pinterest board, as it really helps people get invested in the world you’ve built.- the banned & taken fcs lists being in alphabetical order. it’s such a tiny thing, but it makes life so much easier and i appreciate it. - the credits page ! very considerate, and a smart move !- having a triggers page in general, but especially the way you guys are specifically approaching it, and encouraging people to be smart and tag anything that needs it, as well as having the list.

there is a tiny thing i noticed, though, and that’s that the rules page says characters can be as young as twenty, and the app page says nineteen ! other than that tiny typo, y’all have created something that’s pretty perfect ! i’m so, so impressed, and my overall opinion is that i love this rp, would rec it to anybody, and i wish you all the best and hope you thrive ! you’ve clearly thought about everything and are dedicated to the world you’ve built. katie and gabby, you’re doing bloody amazing, and i wish you all the luck in the world !

i always wanna add on the end of these, the good ol’ ‘would i join ?’ and the answer is a massive yes ! if i were group-inclined, you’d be seeing an app from me in a heartbeat !

#rph #rpc #rpa #madworldshq #opinions & reviews #rec #and in a big way!!!!#however i'm sorry this is so messily done! my head's been all over the place and i'm having a bit of trouble concentrating #but hopefully this is somewhat coherent! the general gist is I LOVE
