Lingerie Headcanons (All Mercs!)
Tumblr media
🔞Minors DNI🔞
The Masterlist
👟 Scout 👟
Honestly I see scout as the kind of guy that gets worked up if you just happen to wear a bra and panties that match.
He just likes the idea that you put thought into what you were gonna wear for him
If you really wanna play to a fantasy though…
Playboy Bunny suits
It’s stereotypical, but people find those outfits sexy for a reason, so can you really blame him?
Favorite colors- he would claim to like the typical red and black, but I honestly think he has a soft spot for pink.
And he definitely doesn’t know shit about lingerie styles (tbh, neither do I. I’m looking at charts and cosmopolitan articles as I write this) so a simple bra and panty set suits him just fine
🦅 Soldier 🦅
Just dress up as the Statue of Liberty, he’ll be all over you
Ok, I’m kidding. Kinda. On to the serious stuff.
I think less is more with Soldier. I’m thinking vintage pinup aesthetic really gets him going
I know it’s not technically lingerie, but hear me out
Wear a dress or top that shows off your chest or “accidentally” drop something only to bend over in a skirt that’s conveniently just a bit too short
Bonus points if your wearing some actual lingerie beneath that skirt, flashing a bit of lace
Tease him, see if you can crack that strict drill sergeant demeanor her tries so hard to maintain
Once you're in private just know he’s not going to hold back on you.
favorite colors are red white and blue. No, I will not be backing down on this.
🔥 Pyro 🔥
the more colorful, the better with this one!
That goes double for frills.
Honestly the two of you could probably make a whole day out of you trying on different outfits and strutting around like a runway model, much to their delight
Pyro is like your own personal cheerleader
May also enjoy sexy costumes (nurses, French maids, etc), but I don’t see them as being much into roleplay, so those are probably more for fun
The fashion show usually ends when an outfit is just too hot for them to resist 😏
Because Pyro fucks and I will die on that hill
Their favorite colors for lingerie would be shades ranging from fire red to pastel pink
Favorite style is either babydolls or rompers. They just think you look so cute in them!
💥 Demoman 💥
He probably has the most ‘traditional’ lingerie tastes of everyone
Nothing too fancy, just a silk chemise or a pair of lacy black panties will do just fine
He definitely loves being surprised with it now and then. Undressing you to find that you’re wearing something special is always a turn on
Sometimes he’ll even save up to buy you a pair for special occasions like anniversaries.
He always gets super flustered when giving it to you, though. It’s really freaking cute
That said, if you really want to get him going, wear a pair of his boxers
You know those guys who think it’s hot as fuck when their partners wear their boxers or briefs?
Yeah, Demo’s one of those guys, 100%
Plus, you get to wear comfy, loose underwear. It’s a win-win!
🥊 Heavy 🥊
Heavy doesn’t have any need for fancy lingerie
Honestly he’s kinda terrified of tearing it. That stuff is expensive!
That said, he does enjoy the way you look in a teddy.
When he learns the name of the garment he’ll call you his “little bear.” It quickly becomes his favorite pet name for you
Favorite colors- doesn’t really have any. He thinks you look pretty in any hue.
That said, one thing that gets him even more worked up than lingerie?
Is when you wear one of his shirts- obviously way to big for you, fitting you like a nightgown- and nothing else.
🔧 Engineer 🔧
this is gonna be stereotypical as hell
And honestly he’s very aware of how stereotypical it is and he’s a little ashamed of it
But if you wore a sexy cowgirl costume he would be on you in a nanosecond
But let’s run with that- I think Engie likes costumes
This man has a secret knack for roleplay, I’m telling you
Naughty nurses, feathery show girls, a college student with a low cut blouse who would do anything for a passing grade
He does have some more vanilla tastes as well though. For example I think he loves the simplicity of a camisole or nightgown
Favorite colors would include white and baby blue
🏥 Medic 🏥
I will PERISH on this hill- Medic is a thigh man.
He LOVES the way stockings hug your legs. (In fact I’ve written a fic about this exact scenario)
He would also go feral over a sexy nurse outfit. Is it stereotypical? Yes. But it is also very hot. (I have also written a fic about this)
He’s definitely bold enough to just outright ask you to wear something for him, perhaps a blood red bustier and some matching garters (to play into that thigh kink I mentioned)
However he leaves it up to you when you will be wearing said thing, maintaining some element of surprise.
Once he actually sees you in it, perhaps waiting for him in his private quarters after a long day of work, he will take his time to admire you, making you do a little spin for him
He’ll definitely tease you and refuse to undress you until you're begging for his touch on your bare skin.
🦘 Sniper 🦘
Sniper is not a picky man when it comes to sex
That said, lingerie is always a welcome surprise
His only preference comes down to the style of the lingerie- he prefers crotchless designs.
He doesn’t see the point of wearing something sexy if he has to take it off to fuck you
Styles where the bottom of the panties can be easily pulled to the side also work for this
I think he also enjoys silkier textures.
He’ll run his hands over the fabric both during and after sex, almost as a way to soothe himself and come down from the high
Neither of you really know why this calms him down so much
🌹 Spy 🌹
Spy has sugar daddy energy and will probably buy lingerie for you
Expect the fanciest, silkiest garments that money can buy.
Chemise, robes, and negligee (which is basically the “wealthy widow whose husband died under mysterious circumstances” robe, according to the internet)
Most often they would be in traditional black, but I feel like a deep violet or midnight blue could also be appealing to him.
Oh and get ready to be teased to hell and back.
Spy likes to take his time, especially when you’re wearing something nice for him. After all, what’s the point if he just strips it off of you immediately? (plus this stuff is expensive so he’s gotta get his money’s worth out of this.)
He loves teasing you

honkai star rail characters’ reaction to your tattoos
a/n: it's been four weeks of uni and i have pulled too many all nighters and consumed way too many energy drinks. i am running on no juice at the moment and i wrote this is like two sittings and it is very much not proof read
content warning: mentions of tattoos (duh), very out of character characters probably, shitty writing, sfw
word count: ~780 words
dan heng
neutral to your body tattoos and just see it as another part of you
i personally hc that he has at least one on his body and it’s on right shoulder (source: me i saw it in person in his bed)
doesn’t mean that every time you wear a tank top and your back is somewhat visible he can’t help but stare at you
it’s just fascinating to him. he wants to know if it has meaning to you or if you got it on a whim, if you were meticulous in picking every element represented or it’s just a collage of your favorite things. if the artwork on your back shows your lifetime story that words can’t describe
sometimes at night when the you’re giving him information to fill in the data bank and you fall asleep he’ll unconsciously hover his hand where your tattoo is and rub circles where it is
welt
welt sees your tattoos in pretty much the same way dan heng does, but he admired how the artwork on your body highlights your beauty
when you fall asleep on the couch filling out paperwork for both himeko and for the data bank, your tattoo is visible
as you snore on the red couches in the lobby of the express, welt can’t help but bring you a blanket and shift you into a position that won’t hurt your back in the morning
welt sits next to you book in hand while he watches you snooze away. eventually he too succumbs to slumber and he is seen sleeping next to you on the couch (no one is sure how the two of you manage to fit on one couch)
blade
he’s the first one and probably the only one to notice that your tattoo covers a scar
he won’t ask you about it (it’s not any of his business) but he would point it out in private
“you’ve got a scar there” he’d point at your tattoo and you’d play dumb “pfft… what scar?” then he points at the exact spot on your tattoo where ink covers scar tissue
freaks you out tbh you thought it was not that noticeable and blade senses your panic and reassures you it can’t be spotted that easily
he’s a little confused on why you would want to cover it and you tell him honestly. you don’t like it when people point it out while in public and you just found out easier to cover it up permanently without needing to always apply foundation
he feels bad for you but he’s got bandages on his hands so who is he to talk about covering up wounds
he has a new sense of closeness to you and vice versa. You sometimes catch him eyeing your tattoo and you ask him if he wants to get one too
he politely declines but if you wanted to get matching tattoos with him in a discreet spot, he won’t reject probably
kafka
i’m surprised that in that one light cone of kafka from forgotten hall she’s got none but that’s okay she’s still hot nevertheless
mommy kafka thinks your tattoos are hot probably so she deliberately buys you clothing that don’t cover the tattoo (backless dresses, sleeves less shirts, low rise jeans, shoulder less blouses)
she will be upset if you don’t wear the things she buys you
she probably thinks back tattoos are the sexiest and if you let her she would totally kiss your back just to make you squirm
loves water color style type tattoos the most, but whatever you have on you is hot to her
gepard
in one of gepard’s voice lines he mentions that he’s into gardening (hot hot hot) so i think if you had a tattoo of flowers he’d melt probably
if it’s on your shoulder or back and you show him? he will scream. he’s gonna scream, throw his jacket at you, then go into another room. he’s just a little baby you gotta cut him some slack
will admire your tattoos from afar but cannot look you in your eyes because he will go red in the face
if you ask him for his input for some flowers for a new tattoo idea that you have, will be honored that you asked him of all people
he would suggests lilies, amaryllises, morning glories, or bellflowers. don’t ask him why though he will not be able to tell you without blushing
he thinks all these flowers are gorgeous and he finds you gorgeous and if you incorporated some of these in your new tattoo he will be putty in your hands
he rarely gets to give out advice that’s not related to silvermane guard rules, regulations, and formalities so he’s secretly ecstatic

What the Heck is the Golden Guard Actually Wearing: A Speculative Guide
Tumblr media
So a long while ago, I was talking in a Discord server with a few others about what Hunter's GG uniform might actually be composed of, since apparently a lot of the fandom seems to interpret it as a kind of tunic. With the finale of the show sending us all into tears, I thought I'd take a break from the heartache and explain my theories.
(This might be long, so I'll put pictures in when I can)
So to start with, let's actually begin not with his uniform, but what's underneath it, as seen above.
Tumblr media
(So scary, truly)
Now, while some people headcanoned this as a binder (and I'm not one to bash on people's ideas), I think it's actually a kind of brigandine!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Note the length, the buckles going down the front, and the leather straps going over the shoulders)
This was a kind of armor that knights or soldiers wore, composed of strips of metal fastened between two pieces of heavy cloth or leather to make a vest. It was handy to have because it was fairly durable and lightweight, and offered decent protection without needing all the fancy welding required for full-plate armor.
It was worn on top of a tunic (like he does in the photo), and was usually sleeveless, though it sometimes could come with arm and shoulder protection.
Now, I confess, a brigandine wouldn't normally be worn under armor (too many layers and padding), but that leads us to Hunter's actual uniform!
Tumblr media
(Angry cat / big brother energy intensifies)
So while the cloak and pin are common enough that even most civilians in medieval times wore them, this isn't one solid tunic piece -- it's plate mail!
Now, to get the basics out of the way, that little shoulder guard he's wearing is called a pauldron, and was used to keep your opposing, non-dominant side safe when jousting. Knights would normally only wear one, as two would be cumbersome, and holding your lance under one was uncomfortable and impractical.
(It also makes an adequate perch for little bird palismen)
That duller yellow color Hunter wears is the undershirt knights would wear under their armor (for extra padding against chafing and some extra protection). While this historically would be a gamberson (or aketon, depends on who you ask), a thick, quilted fabric shirt, it'd be too bulky for the plate mail he's wearing, amidst other things.
Instead, he might be wearing an arming shirt!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Also referred to as an arming doublet (again, depends on who you ask), these were made later as a thin kind of form-fitting shirt that was more flexible and allowed for ease of motion when wearing armor. Sometimes chain mail was sewn into more vulnerable areas for coverage, like between the legs and the armpits (like you can kinda see in the first pic).
(Also, take notice of the higher sides of the collar, which you can also see under Hunter's cape)
The brighter gold armor he wears is, from what I can tell, not full plate mail, but a kind of cuirass!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
These were chest plates that covered both the front and back of a knight without needing all the extras of armor, and could be worn with an arming shirt or chainmail.
They also usually came with hip guards -- those little strips by his pelvis -- and were special attachments called faulds, useful for keeping those areas safe without making things too bulky.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And there you have it! Hope this helps with your art and writing, and thus concluding

ripple effect
i have evans!severus on the brain so am clearing out some of the old drafts i've had. :)
@greens-your-color prompt # 81 - FOUND
summary: In which Harry and Kathleen Evans are thrown for a loop when their eldest daughter was supposed to have gone out to buy things for supper but instead comes back with a child which she may or may not have kidnapped.
wc: 2123+ cw: child abandonment and neglect and its possible effects (mainly food insecurity)
--
Harry Evans was rarely out of his depth.
He was an engineer by trade, and so most of the hours of his day involved maths, and he liked that because maths was absolute. There was no problem at work that running the numbers couldn’t resolve. He was a fixer at his core; he provided solutions, and the people he had to tell them to generally always agreed with his recommendations. His life from 8AM to 5PM was routine and predictable, he got paid reasonably well for it, and best of all, he always knew what he was supposed to be doing.
But parenting? Parenting was another matter altogether.
-
Harry Evans tried not to stare at the boy Petunia had dragged through the front door half an hour before supper. Instead, he trained his eyes at the muddy footprints they’d tracked on the runner in the hall and made a mental note to clean it before Kit saw.
“Hello, Pet. Will your friend stay for supper?” he asked. Gentle tones always worked for his eldest daughter; it wouldn’t do to work her into the defensive early in the conversation.
Petunia, to her credit, looked remorseless but furious. At what exactly, he couldn’t tell.
“He’s not my friend,” she said vehemently. “But Dad, I caught him stealing from the grocer and Mr. Hannigan was angry and grabbed him and made me lose the money and…and he’s got no place to go right now, I think.”
Harry took the opportunity to study the boy in front of him. He was small and grubby and looked more like a stray puppy than a child. He had never seen him before in his life and sincerely hoped Petunia had not snatched away the poor little blighter without their parents knowing.
“You think?” Harry echoed carefully. There was a slow-growing terror pooling in his gut at the possibility of Petunia having taken away somebody’s child in a fit of social justice. His guardians could be out of their minds with worry. He had just sent her out for butter and eggs not even an hour past, for God’s sake. He had mincemeat ready and waiting on the counter for that night’s supper. The possibility of her not coming back with the ingredients he needed and instead being presented with a strange boy with an even stranger backstory had not been on his list of expected rational outcomes.
“Darling…” He fought to keep his voice calm. “Darling, where are his parents?”
Who is he? was the question he really wanted to ask but he had already glimpsed back at the boy several times, and had seen fear in the wide eyes that had seemed too big for his small face before they shifted to glare downwards at the carpet. He couldn’t have been more than…four years old? He was smaller than Lily, but had a nervous air about him, and Harry didn’t want to frighten him further. Instead, he trained his eyes on his daughter, who was seemingly intent on giving him a full report.
“They weren’t there.” Petunia frowned in blatant disapproval. “He’s always alone. I see him sometimes, when I take Lily to the playground. He wears the same clothes over and over.”
Interesting.
Harry turned his attention now on the boy, who still had his chin practically tucked into his chest. Petunia had a firm grip on his hand, but hadn’t pulled away at any point in the strange conversation they’d been having. There was a little bit of trust there, then. Or perhaps he was really only just scared?
“Hello there,” Harry peered at him, taking the chance to look at the boy in earnest. He was wearing at least three layers of t-shirts over torn jeans, which wouldn’t have been enough to keep him warm. His thin arms were covered in goosebumps and there was dirt underneath his fingernails. The boy was simply too young to be fending for himself but the longer Harry looked the more it seemed that that was the actuality of the situation. Concern for the boy’s well-being suddenly made his gut churn. “What’s your name?”
The boy didn’t answer and remained standing stock-still.
“His name’s Severus….”
That seemed to get the boy’s attention, and he glared up at Petunia when he heard his name, as though annoyed that she had even known, or had dared to tell an adult. She gave him a glare of equal proportions.
“Oh, don’t look at me like that. I saved you! I saw you stealing from right under Mr. Hannigan’s nose and he nearly throttled you. I had to lie to him!” she said, sounding affronted not at the near-throttling but at the lying. She turned back to her father. “I had to pay for it with the money you gave me, Dad, I’m sorry, but it was the only way we could go. I didn’t want him to call the police!”
“All right, calm down. I’m sure whatever the issue is with Mr. Hannigan, we can resolve it…” Harry said. He made a mental note to expect a call from Mr. Hannigan, possibly tomorrow. The old grocer was cantankerous on his best days and Harry doubted that he would let that sort of incident go easily. The last thing he needed was to be reported to the council…
“…And then Severus all made the lights in the store explode.”
Harry blinked, wondering if he’d heard wrong. At her words, Severus’ head shot up once more, this time betrayal evident on his face.
“I din’t mean it!” he cried. His dark eyes shone with unshed tears as he looked frantically between Petunia and Harry. “He grabbed me an’ it hurt, then I felt kinda hot and then all the lights went boom!”
Ah. He’d heard right then. Petunia nodded as though to confirm the story and Harry rubbed at his temple to ward off the headache that had built up within the past minute.
“It’s like Lily, Dad.” Petunia sounded more unsure now, and Harry all at once knew why she had thought it was best to just grab the boy and go. “When she does…things. He did it too, and I was scared. I didn’t want him to run away and get into even more trouble, and he doesn’t even have a coat! So, I brought him here.”
Bugger his headache, it had come on fast. He didn’t know where to how to process the information Petunia had just given him. He needed an aspirin. He needed to start dinner. He needed to find out who and where the boy’s parents were and to call them. He needed…
“Harry?” Kit’s voice sounded from the stairs. “Is Petunia back? I heard a commotion…whatever is this mess on the carpet?!”
Harry smiled in spite of himself. Kit always did have impeccable timing.
-
Supper that night was takeaway fish and chips from the corner store which he volunteered to get just so he could take a moment to let the buzzing in his head settle. He left the children with Kit, trusting her to be able to wheedle some more information out of Severus that he wouldn’t have been able to say in front of Harry.
By the time he’d come back, Kit had not only managed to find out a few more things about their young guest but also had been able to convince him to wear one of Lily’s old dressing gowns. Severus looked slightly warmer, if not a smidge uncomfortable. Lily sat beside him at the dining room table and attempted conversation. He didn’t respond but did manage to finish the portion of fish, chips, and mushy peas they had served him. Harry pretended not to notice when he saw Severus cramming a handful of Lily’s own chips into the pockets of his dressing gown when she wasn’t looking.
“Ok, Severus,” Kit’s tone was low and gentle, almost as though she was talking to a skittish colt. After supper they had sent Petunia and Lily to the sitting room to watch TV. It was really so that they could have a modicum of privacy, but Harry didn’t put it past either of his daughters to be listening in on the conversation from the other side of the door. “Could you tell Harry what you told me a little while ago?”
Severus frowned. “Abou’ what?”
“Well, your Da for instance. Is he at work?”
At this, Severus seemed to wilt. “I…dunno. I haven’t seen him.”
“How long?”
“Couple o’ weeks now. He went out one day and never came back.”
The statement triggered alarm bells within Harry. Was he hearing correctly? He threw a concerned look at Kit who raised her eyebrows at him. It gets worse, her expression said.
“Where did he go, Severus? Did he tell you anything before he left?” Harry asked. “Where are you staying?”
“Spinner’s End.”
That was the community across the river, where a lot of the factory laborers lived in. It was a hodgepodge area that had a less-than-rosy reputation and was always in danger of being eradicated completely.
The slums, Harry’s brain had stated for him, unhelpfully. He fought to keep his expression neutral to not distress Severus any further.
“If it’s all right with you, you can stay here for the night, or as long as you need, really,” Harry forced out a smile that he hoped wouldn’t frighten the boy. He resisted touching him, although he wanted very badly to gather the poor mite for a hug. He couldn’t imagine how terrified the poor child was, being in a strange house with people he didn’t know. If he had been in the boy’s shoes, as young and vulnerable as he was, he likely would have already wet himself.
Severus, to his credit, only gave him a solemn nod.
“Will…will ye help me find my Da?” he asked, his voice small as his fingers fidgeted in what seemed to be an unconscious manner. The sound of brittle hope in his tone coupled by the air of ready defeat should he be rejected tore Harry’s heart to pieces.
This was a child. How could anyone abandon their own child? And how long had Severus been wandering about, fending for himself by stealing from stores, and asking other adults to help him, only to be rejected? What world was he living in where people could readily abandon their own flesh and blood when they had only barely learned to put their own clothes on? He doubted Severus could even already tie his own shoes.
Harry wondered if the boy’s father was still even alive and he hoped, rather bitterly, that he wasn’t if only because that was the only explanation that he was willing to accept why he had left his son vulnerable to the fates. Anything other than that ruled him out as a cold-hearted bastard and no, Harry was not going to apologise for it.
“We will look for him,” Harry said. He was careful not to make any promises they couldn’t keep. He could, at the very least, look for Severus’ errant father. He vowed to himself that the man would not know a day of peace if he ever found him. “What was your last name?”
“Snape.” Severus said curtly. “Me Da’s Tobias.”
Tobias Snape. That was a start. Harry Evans slowly uncurled the fist he hadn’t realized he’d clenched on his lap.
“And you can stay here while we do, all right? You’re very welcome in our home, Severus. You can stay for as long as you want to.” He repeated his previous offer for good measure, but changing his words slightly so as to ease him into the notion that he had a choice in the matter. The boy nodded again, but was no less fidgety than before.
“Are you still hungry, Severus?” Kit asked, leaning forward so that they were speaking in near-whispers. Bless his wife’s heart. He could already see that Severus was far more comfortable with her than he realized. “It’s all right, you can eat more if you want, we have plenty of food.”
“No, miss, thank ye,” Severus said softly, although his eyes were on Petunia’s half-eaten cod. Harry felt his heart twinge at the sight.
“Why don’t you help us clear up then?” he said, standing up and tugging on Kit’s sleeve as he went. Thankfully, Kit was always sharp as a tack. “Mrs. Evans and I will go to the kitchen for a moment and then we can all gather the plates and things. You can stay here if you like.”
Severus nodded more eagerly this time, and Harry led Kit out to the kitchen, away from the boy’s line of sight. He reached out and squeezed her hand as they stood under the fluorescent lighting in silence. She squeezed back and Harry counted to thirty in his head.
When they returned to the dining room, Severus was still in his seat, but all the plates had been picked clean. He looked immensely proud of himself and smiled when they approached.
“I’ll help now,” he said, the dressing gown’s pockets overfull as he stood, and Harry smiled at him back.
end.

Do you think you could post more about working out while regressed? I’m trying to work out more, but also regress more, and things like weight lifting tend to pull me out of regression, but your posts makes it feel more comfortable to do them together!! Thank you either way
I’m so glad that my posts help you feel more comfortable!
For me personally, working out has always been something that helps me regress. I think it’s the gender euphoria of it all, since I heavily associate fitness with my gender expression and discovery.
The number one rule for me, regressed or not, is to have fun. Especially when you’re trying to start getting into working out. No one wants to do something they don’t like, especially when it’s going to make them tired and sore. If you need more cardio and you like dancing, then dance more. Find the workouts you enjoy for each area of your body. As you grow to enjoy working out more you’ll find it easier to do the parts you don’t like.
Take things at the pace that you need. You will never enjoy working out if you try to start on a higher level than you need or try to work up too fast. Modern gym culture has lead people to believe that it is bad to be a beginner, but it’s not. If you need to do push ups from your knees, you do push ups from your knees, it will make you stronger and it will work your muscles.
Many gyms have a calisthenics section, and they often include big structures that are kind of like adult playgrounds. My gym has monkey bars, they very in height to make it more challenging and so they can be used for other purposes, but they have them. If you’re a kiddo who likes climbing that could be a lot of fun for you.
Get fun water bottles and/or stickers for the water bottles. Get fun headphones, mine are green dino themed (I like them because they remind me of crocodilians) Use colorful and fun workout equipment if you’re buying your own. Wear workout clothes that you like and you are comfortable in, I usually just wear one of my t-shirts and some sweats. Sometimes dressing the way you want can be scary but anyone who judges someone else at the gym is not worth your time.
Come up with games and play pretend. Sometimes while I workout I will pretend I’m Hercules, and I’m training to become a hero so I have to work really hard. You can pretend you’re in a race, or that you’re a super hero. Make it fun in whatever way you can.
Make a playlist of songs that make you feel small and/or pumped. I have a lot of Hercules on my workout playlist because it helps me regress and motivates me toward achieving my fitness goals.
You can even try watching kids exercising videos. YouTube has lots of workout videos for kids. Sometimes following an instructor is easier than following a list. They have easy and fun workouts for you to try if you want to give them a shot.
Your diet is important too! But it doesn’t have to be boring ‘grown up’ food. I make my chicken, rice, and veggies with dino nuggets. Chocolate milk is a great after workout drink, and if you’re looking for big muscles you can get some with extra protein. If you use enough frozen fruits and a small enough portion of cold milk (or non dairy drink) you can make protein shakes with the consistency of milk shakes or even straight ice cream! And there is never shame in eating what you want and then adding what you need. If you need chicken nuggies to eat a salad, then eat those nuggies with your salad.
Let yourself enjoy your fitness journey. It doesn’t have to suck, no matter what gym and diet culture tells you.
You’ve got this!

You've been developing a little crush on you econ professor Kendall Roy, but have been trying to not think about it, until you run into him in the wedding of a mutual acquaintance and see him in a suit for the first time. You're seeing a whole new side of him on the dancefloor but you're too flustered to talk to him. You're waiting your turn at the open bar when you hear a familiar baritone voice behind you calling your last name. You turn around and find your econ professor looking at you with an amused lopsided grin on his face. His cheeks are just a little bit red from all the wine and his tie is loose around his neck, the first button of his shirt undone. He stares at you for a while, smiling, but suddenly collects himself and takes on a more serious expression, as if trying to summon back some of that authority he wields in the classroom. But it's too late. You know you're about to make a series of bad decisions tonight.
OMFG yes, i love this idea and so i wrote a little blurb (hope you don't mind)
cw: alcohol mention.
When you see him, your jaw drops just a little bit. It's the last person you'd expect to see here, and you're only used to hearing your name from him when he's about to chew you out in class -- not that you mind, of course, because you sort of like the attention.
"Dr. Roy?" you ask, almost not recognizing him at first glance. You're used to seeing him in plaid blazers with reinforced elbows, or collared dress shirts poking out from underneath his impossibly soft-looking sweaters. Right now, though, he's in a black suit that fits him like a glove, though his shirt is slightly wrinkled, his tie loose around his neck. You don't think you've ever seen him smile the way he's smiling at you now -- sometimes he'll smirk to himself if someone makes a good joke during a class discussion, but he always shuts it down right away and is back to business.
The wedding reception is well underway, and it's supposed to end in fifteen minutes, but no one on the dance floor seems to be slowing down anytime soon, including the bride and groom, which is why you're at the bar for another drink -- you're not quite drunk enough yet to embarrass yourself on the dance floor.
When he recognizes your clear shock and confusion, his face shifts then, smile fading as he looks at you underneath his dark lashes. "You should really be at home, studying for the exam on Monday."
He says it so sternly, that you feel yourself straighten up out of habit. "I uh- well, I-I-" you rack your brain for an excuse, until he breaks out in a smile again.
"I'm joking, please," he steps closer to you, and you laugh nervously. "Relax, I won't bite."
You feel a little bit of anxiety fade, but a different kind of tension now hangs in the air, because you don't think you've ever been so close to him before. Close enough to see that his eyes are hazel -- not brown, like you'd previously thought. And the color of his eyes weren't the only things you thought about.
"I did actually already study," you say softly. "Last night."
"I'd expect nothing less from one of my best students."
"Okay," you roll your eyes. "You don't have to lie."
"I'm serious," he says, still grinning.
"Oh, you are?" you ask, and can't help but smile a little, too. "Because if you really feel that way, you sure have a funny way of showing it."
He takes one step closer, so he can whisper in your ear above the noise of the music. Instinctually, you drift closer to him, bare shoulder brushing the soft fabric of his suit jacket. "Cut me some slack. I'm a highly-respected member of the faculty. I can't play favorites."
"That's fair," you nod. "But I think you like making people scared of you."
"Are you scared of me?" you can feel his breath hit the shell of your ear, and you can't manage to hide the way it makes you shiver. You draw back, and snort. The way he's looking at you -- so focused, so attentive, makes your head spin. But you don't know whether to say no, or tell him the truth. When you don't answer right away, he shakes his head. "Well, we can't have that, can we? What are you drinking?"
"Vodka soda," you say, gesturing towards the bartender who you are convinced is purposely ignoring you. "But I've been waiting forever."
"Here," he says, stepping alongside of you. All he has to do is straighten up, and snap his fingers, and the bartender turns to look at him standing there, nods once before walking over.
"See, even he's scared of you," you nudge your professor playfully. He chuckles, his hand falling to your lower back, and you all-but melt, shifting your weight on your feet so you're closer. You know this is highly, highly inappropriate, but you can't resist.
His touch doesn't leave you, not even after you get your drinks, clink your glasses, and catch him staring at you over the rim of his own. You have his attention, and you aren't going to let it go to waste.

✨rating pedro pascal characters based on nothing but costuming (non-exhaustive)✨
considerations:
*real housewives voice* thats my OPINION!!! also subject to change upon reflection, just going off my current feelings. 
not really discussing whether the costuming is good or bad for character, context, or source material but just how much I like them if that makes sense. 
some of these costume designers knocked it out of the park but would I be a little grumpy if I went on a date and they showed up in a walmart denim button up and ripped their $300+ jacket to shreds? Yes. Was that costume absolutely perfect for Joel? Yes again.
Mostly discussing costuming in context modern/21st century settings. The Mandalorian+GOT+ etc. in part two?
Minimal discussion on hair+cosmetics, only really when it applies to the whole look

They did not have to go so crazy on these outfits!!! 
Why does one of my favorite looks apparently not even appear in the movie!?
every look is so *chefs kiss*
I feel like mustard yellow is such a good color on him. 
Like call up those people on tik tok who make nonsensical categories like “strong winter” “ambivalent fall” and find out why mustard yellow always works.
The palette is a cute mix of like warm bricky colors like red, brown, mustard yellow mixed with baby blue and eggshell white. its actually perfect. 
What really makes him stand out is the fact he accessorizes. 
Lots of men don't accessorize because they don’t think its important - they couldn’t be more wrong. 
It’s one of the many injustices of the world that a man’s outfit looks 10x better by adding one necklace or in this case- pinky ring.
Do I like the sunglasses? No. But I like that they are there. 
Obligatory hair mention: The hair looks great. With longer hair becomes more responsibility, ie sometimes the part is a little too deep making the front pieces have a combover look. This is only when its messy though so that may have been the point?
If I included every outfit I liked it would just be a slideshow of the whole movie so I picked my favorites

Can you tell I like 70s inspos?
Its unique but true to someone who grew up in RGV and now on his own
ie good luck getting him out of boots. you can’t do it
When he dresses up in s1+2, damn i love a tan suit! 
Its very formulaic, but not to the extent that it looks like he bought 7 colors of the exact same shirt. He’s pretty much always wearing a short sleeve button up and fitted jeans. which makes the times he isn’t stand out
ie the tan suit. what can i say i am an american who is up to date on politics i always defend a tan suit when i see one
also occasionally breaks out this like tan vest situation? 
I think it’s a good balance between like clearly not being inspired by like their “current day” but not so 70s that it would be odd. It’s kinda timeless. 
He tends to follow one of my outfits rules: max 3 colors
Rules are meant to be broken obvi 
But I do feel like as a general rule of thumb and since he doesn’t wear a ton of patterns, wearing more than three colors starts to make an outfit look random and not put together
For Javi, this usually means 
color 1: *shirt color* 
color 2: pants (pretty much just blue or black, he does throw in some brown pants) 
color 3: brown (pretty exclusively wears brown belts/shoes)
Short note on hair/grooming: I love how season 1 has some more length in the back and generally has a shaggy sort of look? By season 3 his hair is more cropped probably bc of his new role. 
Something about the extra length in the back makes him look young- not in the sense of like actual age but maybe looking more hopeful or green, even when dressed up 
Also every so often you can see when they mess up the stick on sideburns. It tickles me.
He’s a menace to society. And he knows it

Comments:
We don’t see much and what we see! Is so good
This deep deep red is very nice and I like that is a monochromatic look (I don’t think we see his pants in the movie but collecting pics for this I saw the pants are the same color) 
It also has my favorite type of collar- that extra pointy extra long collar. 
And he *drum rolls* accessorized! Its only a necklace but the choice to have it OVER the shirt, over an already perfectly monochrome outfit makes it pop
The things that bring it a little down for me is, well, there is only one scene to work with so it feels wrong to rank higher than projects with multiple outfits, and the grooming
The mustache didn’t have to be so thin. 
Hair wise I don’t understand why we always have to exaggerate the side burns to achieve the “deep sideburn” look. 
I feel like we could still make the hair look “of the time” by taking some of the weight from the sides and leaving it up top and working with his natural side burns (even if that means making them darker, just not necessarily longer)
Even though I get the hair of the time was very um... spherical
side note: everyone in this movie is dressed spectacularly. I am appreciating through the tears in my eyes

Have I watched in full? Maybe a few years ago? I remember the first one quite clearly bc the water filling up the bedroom scene YIKES!
The snowsuit is so good. It’s functional, it’s sassy. It has one of my favorite western top details I don’t know the name of but the little patch details on the front of the shoulders. 
Who’s idea was it for the belt buckle to be a FLASK!!! thats gold
I love a color SCHEME!!! 
brown leather deserves love
The rain boots- a practical choice in the middle of like the least practical movie ever? Leave him in cowboy boots you cowards
Like oh the grounds might get muddy he needs rain boots. His belt buckle was a flask guys be real

Have I watched in full? No. I caught a few episodes it was when it was airing but I don’t think i could tell you a single plot line 
(there is a LOT of FBI Department of Pseudo Psychology shows ok)
I do remember in one of his early eps they use the murder house from Nightcrawlers.
*Abby Lee voice* you didn’t stick out to me
Very government employee of you to wear ill fitting suits
Not to be irrational but v-neck t shirts don’t rub me the right way. 
This is a completely personal ick that I don’t expect anyone else to agree with. 
I just ~~ just do a crew neck you know? 
Maybe WHY I don’t like it is because its very 2010-2014. 
Which, in Marcus’ defense, just makes v-neck t-shirts something of the time 
Does nothing crazy with his suits, but nothing that makes me cover my eyes either

Comments:
Joel we get it you are nOT like other girls 
It makes sense for who he is. 
And who he is is someone who is not thinking about how much cunt he is going to serve with his outfit that day. 
unFORTUNATELY.
His pants ARE suspiciously fitted. Not so utilitarian when it comes to pants are you Joel?
But! I love the big coat. Could live in the big coat. The big coat deserves an award
The best part of the big coat is the main defense against the simplicity of Joel’s outfits are “oh it’s the apocalypse” or “oh he’s not thinking about that” 
Really? bc this is a SHEARLING lined coat. Do you know how quickly those fluffy shearling/sherpa etc. liners start to look like shit? if its a real shearling lining (the one he uses is real) you need to avoid getting it wet and store in dry areas. 
I am not even talking about price here! Because I have already explained why I think its not that weird to have people wearing expensive clothes 20 years into the apocalypse. 
Its the utility of having a shearling lined coat when you don’t have a closet full of DampRids
No way he had it in Boston since they only travel with regular sized backpacks. He saw it, liked it, wanted it, got it. 
He got that coat for the cunt of it all, you can’t convince me otherwise. 
Tumblr media
Thank you so much for coming on this ride with me it was a fun exercise to look at just the clothes and not my feelings toward the character/movie/show. 
Who should I do next time? I have plenty of more thoughts hehe

Amusement Park Date
contains: character x gn!reader, modern au, a little bit of crack, a bit of making out w/ pantalone (nothing suggestive tho), scara still has his vision
characters included: kaveh, pantalone, wanderer
warnings: none
Tumblr media
Kaveh
Believe it or not, Kaveh has actually been saving his money for this trip for months. Granted, Alhaitham had to remind him repeatedly that he'd been wanting to go there with you for ages and that he better get a grip if he wanted to make it a reality, but Kaveh eventually did it.
The date at the amusement park was actually a birthday gift for you (along with a painting that Kaveh drew, trying to portray his love for you with colors!) and he was so happy to see that you liked it! Though....Kaveh at times seemed actually more excited than you.
In the last two weeks before the trip you'd often get messages like "only 8 more days!!!" from Kaveh.
When the day is finally here, Kaveh wakes up at an ungodly hour in the morning and attempts to wake you up with his kisses. He'd press soft kisses to your temple and nuzzles your cheek gently. "Kaveh....love....just 10 more minutes", you mumble against his lips before kissing back sleepily and then burying your head in his chest. Kaveh will carry you out of bed if he has to.
He puts on a colorful shirt with a triangle pattern and a deep v-neck and wears a loose-fitting jacket over it. He adds a bunch of accessories, including big creole earrings, to his outfit and straight up looks like he's been hired to model at the amusement park.
Already takes a bunch of pictures with you on the way there. His favorite is the one where he's giving you a sweet kiss to the cheek.
He goes to the bathroom and leaves his phone on the train seat next to you and you happen to see a notification from Alhaitham texting "stop sending me couple pictures."
"I think I can see it!", he tells you excitedly during the last ten minutes of the train ride, trying to spot the amusement park in the distance.
Heartbroken over the fact that he has to wait in a line at the entrance. Spends the time listening to his new favorite playlist. He shares his headphones with you and gives you a kiss whenever there's a line in the song that reminds him of his love for you.
He adds the amusement park music to his playlist too. Whether they play pop songs or have special themes for their different rides, Kaveh wants to keep them in his memory.
He tells you that you can hold his hand in the haunted house if you're scared but he ends up being the one clinging to you.
Confused by the mirror labyrinth in the fun house. You're standing there snickering like: "Keep going Kaveh, you'll get there, I believe in you."
He gets a big cotton candy for both of you and then complains that his fingers feel sticky after eating from it.
If there's photo booths or those cardboard cutouts you can put your face in, he insists to do that with you. "Hey, y/n, did you know that Alhaitham blocked me?" "Did you try and send him this photo?" "....Maybe?"
Kaveh is super excited for the rollercoasters but the thing is that he's never actually been on a rollercoaster before so he's definitely one of the people who scream the whole time. After trying one with a loop once you have to sit down with him on the bench for like 20 minutes and he's never going on one that loops ever again.
He accidentally befriends a painter who offers to paint the amusement park visitors in exchange for some mora. Kaveh has a whole conversation with him about art, exchanges numbers with him with the promise to work on a collaborative project sometime and dude decides to draw a couple picture of the two of you for a reduced price because Kaveh was so appreciative and polite.
His favorite ride is the chairoplane and he wants to go on it multiple times and holds your hand throughout the ride, just appreciating the feeling of flying, along with the upbeat music and the bass from the speakers.
Probably starts a flash mob in the big square in front of the chairoplane on accident and then a bunch of people end up dancing together to a popular pop song. If you agree to dance with Kaveh, he'll be absolutely delighted, giving you his brightest smile everytime he looks at you.
He tries to win you a plushie or something else you like at a shooting booth or the claw machine but fails miserably and sulks about it.
Decides to get dinner with you at one of the food stalls and orders something for himself that's way too spicy for his tastes.
He tops the trip off with a boat ride on a beautiful swan lake once the sun is setting. He holds you close against his chest and sings you a song quietly, pressing a kiss to your forehead after he's finished. "I love you so much. I'm going to keep this day in my memory for a long, long time", Kaveh whispers softly and leans his head against yours.
When he gets out of the boat, he tries to feed one of the swans and the swan hisses at him. "Oh my god...", Kaveh gets startled as the swan slowly starts walking after him and hissing louder. Kaveh starts walking a bit faster and the swan starts running. "Y/n....y/n help", Kaveh sounds a little uneasy. "Hold on, I just gotta send this to Alhaitham", you snicker as you record a video of the swan charging after your boyfriend.
Pantalone
He actually owns the amusement park and he wanted to take you on this date to spoil you rotten and also subtly brag about his fortune so your job here is to be as much of a menace as you can be.
"No." Pantalone crosses his arms as he stares at your mischievous expression, as you're waiting for him to take his seat next to you on the water coaster. He clutches his expensive jacket tighter around him regretting the fact that he didn't see this coming and contemplating why he didn't just take you to a fancy restaurant instead. Because you knew they'd love it here...., he sighs and thinks to himself as you stare at him with your pleading eyes. "Pantalone~", you reach out your hand to him and oh god he's so weak for you. Regrets all his life choices when he gets into the coaster but still has to smile at your excited expression and the kiss you press to his cheek as a thanks for doing this with you.
The only reason he doesn't scream on the rollercoasters is that his anxiety for his reputation is bigger than his fear of the rollercoaster. Needless to say he ends up soaked on the water coaster and the camera takes a picture exactly when all the water splashes into his face. So you spend half an hour in a staff bathroom with Pantalone as he gets a hair dryer delivered there by the park staff and tries to dry off his clothes and fix his hair.
"Sorry....I thought it would be fun...", you start feeling guilty for wanting him to take the coaster ride with you. Pantalone's face softens and he presses a soft kiss to your lips multiple times. "It was", he reassures you and squeezes your hand. You help him dry his hair and then proceed with your trip.
"Hey, isn't that the head of surgery in that hospital you own?", you ask in confusion as you see the man dressed in the mad scientist costume in the haunted house. Pantalone greets Dottore briefly. "Doesn't he make a whole lot of money already? Why does he work part-time at the haunted house?", you whisper to Pantalone once you've passed Dottore by. "Oh he doesn't work here", Pantalone chuckles, "this is more of a hobby of his. He's doubled their revenue ever since he started coming here so they let him in and out as he pleases."
You hear a kid sobbing behind you as you get out of the haunted house, his mother patting his hand gently. "Don't worry Timmie, the mad scientist isn't actually real, it's just a costume", she explains softly and little Timmie picks up a pigeon from the street and holds it for comfort. "Oh dear", Pantalone chuckles and reaches for your hand.
You have to stop Pantalone from buying out the entire souvenir shop for you.
He also questions all his life choices when you go on the spinning tea cup ride and you spin that thing so fast that Pantalone is clinging onto the seat belt for dear life
He asks you to go on the tunnel of love ride with you next and you agree.
"Pantalone....is it just me or is this ride going way slower than it's supposed to?", you raise your eyebrow at the innocent smile he gives you, "also why are we the only people in the boat?" "Don't worry about it", Pantalone keeps smiling at you and kisses your lips gently but passionately. He holds the back of your head and pours so much love into his kiss that for a while the only thing you could focus on was his overwhelming amount of affection, the way he squeezed your hand and the way he started trailing kisses down your neck. Your tone becomes serious. "Pantalone did you block the other people from the ride and reduce the tempo by 75%-", he cuts your words off by pressing his lips to yours again, undoing your seat belt and pulling you onto his lap. He wraps his arms around your waist and presses several kisses on the spot just below your ear. "I love you", he whispers and holds your face in his hands, looking at you like you're the most valuable treasure in his whole life. "I swear to god if I fall out of this boat- the sign says 'keep the seat belts on'", you mumble. Pantalone just smiles against your lips before giving you another deep kiss. "This thing is going at a speed slower than we walk, you're not going to fall out of the boat, love", he pulls you close to him and hugs you, "just relax...."
So you melt into his embrace and you had to admit that for all the schemes he's pulling, it actually felt nice to take some time off from people for a while after being surrounded by families with children and loud park noises all days. So you let Pantalone kiss you for as long as he pleased, enjoying the taste of his lips and how soft they felt against yours. His lips still tasted like the peach lip balm he put on after the water coaster. His fingertips draw circles onto your back and you bury your hands in his soft hair. Pantalone smiles into the kiss. You knew how much he loved when you played with his hair. Pantalone rests his head against your chest and closes his eyes, just letting you pamper him for a while.
"You know, I feel like we've been in there for 20 minutes", you mumble as you get out of the ride. You glance over to the entrance to see a long line of angry people, some chanting "let us in!"
"Oh my god what have you done?", you look at Pantalone who just chuckles, winks at you and wraps an arm around your shoulder. "You've been complicit in it."
Once the park closed up, Pantalone guides you to the biggest square in the park as you watch a hundred of beautiful lanterns rise into the sky. You try not to think about for how long the staff members had to work extra hours just so Pantalone could spoil you. "A dance?", he asks you softly and holds his hand out to you. You dance with him to the slow music underneath the lights, marveling at their beauty while Pantalone can't stop staring at your face instead. He could have a show of lights everyday if he wanted to. Few things he could gift you were anything extraordinary for him, but you were the most special person in his life and he still couldn't believe he was blessed with your love every day.
He gestures for you to wait a second as he disappears behind a booth and comes back with a bouquet. "Y/n.....I love you more than I could possibly put into words. Please accept this bouquet of diamond roses as a token of my love. They'll never wilt and they're everlasting just like my love", he takes your hand in his and presses a soft kiss to it. "How are you not broke yet?", you sigh and give him a tight hug. "Do you not like them?", he asks, worry lacing his voice. "I love them", you look up at the night sky again, holding your bouquet and Pantalone wraps his arms around you from behind as you both watch the lights rise into the night sky, "I love you."
Wanderer
Kicks this trip off with saying "I aspire to be that childless couple cranky 30+ year old parents get mad at solely for being at the amusement park" and that is the general vibe of the entire day.
He doesn't feel like standing in the waiting line at the entrance so he tells you to hold onto him and just uses his anemo powers to fly to a spot straight at the ticket booth.
One of the park employees dressed in amusement park merch greets you with a friendly smile. "Welcome to Primoland - here you can find everything you wish for", he says and Scara replies dryly. "Even my sanity?" "Scara- Two tickets please." The man at the ticket booth looks at you two with a questioning expression but hands out the tickets, probably glad to see you move on.
He's mostly silent on the rollercoasters since they don't bother him much nor are they that much fun to him, so he usually sits there with a straight face. Except if you scream or cling onto him because you're scared. Then he makes fun of you.
You don't know how but you take your eyes off him in the haunted house for 3 minutes and he scares the crap out of at least 5 children.
He wins you the biggest teddy bear at the shooting booth, popping the balloons with his anemo powers. "So you don't complain that I didn't get you anything or something like that", he mumbles and hands it to you. "Hey! I wanted that bear", a small kid next to him pouts and Scara sticks out his tongue to the little girl. "Scara, please, you're an adult-", you facepalm. The girl's mother snaps at him that her daughter wanted that teddy bear and that he shouldn't be such a spoilsport and let the child have some joy. "I really didn't expect to meet such entitled adults when coming here with my family today", she shakes her head and puts her hands on her hips in disappointment. "And I didn't expect to meet a slightly more boring version of Ebenezer Scrooge and yet here we are", Scara retorts and you pull him away by his arm.
Please stop him from picking fights with random visitors.
He wants to get you a popsicle at the shop near the entrance and there's a couple in front of him with their cart packed full of candy, about 50 Primoland socks, matching t-shirts and all kinds of toys. Scara looks grumpier by the second as they seem to take half an eternity to pay for their stuff. The man turns around to him and gives him an apologetic look. "We have 7 children", he explains. "I can see that", Scara replies dryly. Your popsicle is already half-molten when he comes out of the shop. "We can drink that with a straw at this point", Scara mumbles.
You take a photo of him holding a big cotton candy and comment on how cute he looks and he just looks super annoyed on the picture which may or may not be due to the fact that he's blushing quite a bit.
You go on the ferris wheel with him, expecting to have a nice and relaxing ride with him, perhaps cuddling a bit but Scara stands up and starts making the gondola shake a lot from the inside. You grab him by the waist and pull him onto your lap, holding him in place. "Sometimes I feel like it's a bad idea to take you anywhere ever", you sigh and bury your face in his shoulder, gently kissing his neck once in a while to make sure he stays still and stops trying to tease you.
The bumper car ride is his absolute favorite. He drives like a madman and manages to use his abilities to make the car go faster than intended, ramming into everything in his path. He wants to go several rounds and two boys ask him what they have done to upset him. "Scara, we're trying to have fun here not cause someone a concussion....", you joke. "Maybe that is my way of having fun", he teases and sticks out his tongue to you. So you meet it with yours and pull him into a kiss, his eyes widening but he melts into your embrace immediately. He's like this cat:

author's note: planned to post this on wednesday but then I got something in my eye and couldn't open it anymore so I wrote kaveh's part with one hand and a shirt tied around my left eye.

SLC Punk! relationship headcanons
Stevo
Tumblr media
-He'd be very uncertain about going into the relationship, because he would be scared that it would end badly.
-He goes into the relationship not expecting you to stay with him for a long time so it takes a while for him to realize the fact that you like him as more than just a friend with benefits. 
-No matter how long you've been dating physical affection is always something to expect, Stevo is a very touchy guy so even while doing something mundane he'll still be holding your hand, leaning on you, he'd have his arm around your waist or shoulders, etc.
-When you're around him and his friends he's always extremely close to you, especially if its with Mark, Stevo likes Mark and all but Mark has a tendency to snap and Stevo doesn't want you getting hurt, even accidentally.
-Your parents probably aren't to jazzed by the idea of him and probably won't like him at first but his charisma would win them over.
-Stevo will constantly be complaining to you about his parents and how they just don't understand him. 
-He'd help you dye your hair, but the color after probably wouldn't be even.
-He likes customizing random jackets with you and if you don't feel like customizing one at some point or you aren't there he'll make one for you or give you one of his old ones.
-If he gets too hurt while beating the shit out of rednecks, if he got hurt in a mosh pit, or a fight at a party, anywhere really, he'd want you to help clean or treat his wounds even though he could do it himself.
-Matching 666 tattoos to scare the people of Wyoming. 
-You'd get a lot of stares in public, even if you aren't punk and it's just Stevo who's punk. Stevo would always retaliate by yelling at them, only causing more people to give you weird looks. 
-You've been kicked out of 5+ establishments because of Stevo acting out, throwing something at someone or just yelling too much.
 -He would wear whatever clothing of yours would fit him, what do you mean that was your favorite shirt? Well its his favorite now.
-He'd give you small gifts, he's not one to just buy expensive things for someone out of the blue but if he sees an accessory or a piece of clothing you'd like he'd get it for you.
-Whenever you go out to Wyoming to get beer for a party you'd both put on shitty fake accents just for fun.
Mark
Tumblr media
-He would be skeptical of you at first, thinking maybe you just like him for his money.
-When he realizes you're genuinely into him, god, you could never get rid of him. He is always with you, always, you barely get time alone anymore. 
-Mark would be extremely jealous and protective of you, he'd also be controlling and probably would try to stop you from hanging out with certain people because he thinks they're into you. Even if you tell him they're just a friend he'd never let you be alone with them, often telling you they're untrustworthy and they're trying to take you from him.
-Always has his gun with him if you two leave the house to go to one of Stevo's parties and sometimes just when you go out as he feels its to keep you safe, although you insist you'd rather he'd not bring it.
-He'd offer to buy you things but if you said you didn't want or need him to buy you things he'll still do it.
-At parties he wouldn't let you fight in the crowd alone, even though he hates seeking out pain, he'd join you if you were having fun as to fight is to be alive. 
-When you're out with him he'd insist you never bring a jacket of your own as you prefers you to always be wearing his when you're out together or even at home.
-Stevo wouldn't understand how you'd be able to deal with his insanity as he's always on the verge of snapping but Mark tries to be more calm around you, though I can't promise he won't have his moments of craziness.
-He isn't big on PDA, he simply sees no point in it, however if he sees someone else hitting on you he'd get upset and if he's been in a good mood that day he'd just silently stand next to you with his arm around your waist, often throwing passive aggressive insults at the other person in a joking tone despite him being serious. If he's been in a bad mood or he's had a bit too much to drink he would get audibly upset and I can't promise gun related threats won't be screamed at whoever it was who was hitting on you. 
-He loves talking to you about all the cool shit he owns and he'd get slightly upset when you stop paying attention.
-He often has nightmares of the plane crash from when he was 5 so you try your best to comfort him about it.
-When he goes to visit his family's graves he takes you with him, you're the only person he's ever taken to see them and the only person he ever will because he trusts you most.
-Always telling you his crazy conspiracy theories, you can't help but laugh because of how seriously he takes this.
-You're parent's love him
-On most weekends he prefers to just lay around on the couch with you to smoke weed but sometimes he enjoys going to parties, even if he doesn't want to go but you do he'll go.\
Bob
Tumblr media
-He absolutely adores you, he never shuts up about you, Stevo's absolutely sick of it but he rarely tells him to stop because Stevo probably wasn't even paying attention in the first place.
-On the extremely rare occasion that he goes to the doctor, he'll only agree to go if you come with him. When you're there he'll either insist you hold his hand to get a shot or you'd have to hold him down so he doesn't attack a doctor.
-After going to a doctor he'd be agitated and in a bad mood for the rest of the day, and probably the next day but you try to reason with him and tell him that he needed to go for his own health, you end up agreeing to disagree.
-If you are at your house and decide to drink you'd have to cover your mirrors or make sure that he wont be able to see them. 
-If he does end up punching and breaking one of your mirrors he'd continuously apologize and go on about how he's gonna have seven years of bad luck, he's broken many but every time its the same and you'd have to treat the cuts on his hands so he doesn't have to go back to the hospital again.
-When he was originally in quarantine at the hospital you were the only person to visit him frequently, you were the one to help him decorate the room with black tape. 
-You're his go to person when he's upset or having a mental breakdown over his father so you learn how to comfort him pretty quickly and its likely that he'd been drinking so you make sure he can't drink for the rest of the day.
-If you end up doing acid with Stevo Bob would blame Stevo for making you do it with him, even if it was your choice, Bob would complain the entire time and give both you and Stevo the silent treatment for around a day.
-Whenever you attend a concert or go see a band play, both you and Bob hop up on stage to fight the band for no reason. 
-He has only ever taken you to meet his father once and will never take you back because he fears for you safety.
-After the visit to his father he had a pretty rough time dealing with it, he refused to attend parties or go out with friends for a week. He would apologize for putting you through that and he would be upset with himself for risking your safety, even if you convinced him that you were okay and that it was nothing he'd still beat himself up over it.
-You're parents are okay with him, they don't want him around a lot though so you'd often have to sneak him into your room so you could hang out. 
-If you live alone he'd prefer to spend time at your place as he feels there's nothing for you to do at his.
-He often expresses his appreciation for you, through words mainly but sometimes it's through physical affection. 
-He loves listening to music with you, even if the music was made by posers.
-You and him enjoy beating up rednecks and skinheads with everyone else but you only help sometimes, you mainly keep watch for police to help the others
Mike
Tumblr media
-He was the one to ask you out, sure, he was nervous but he was really glad he asked.
-He gives you flowers or plants to take care of, even though he'll help and probably the main person taking care of them. 
-He attends ALL of Stevo's parties so you also attend a lot but there are occasions where you don't go with and have to deal with a drunk or high Mike coming home late at night and probably having to deal with a tall, very drunk man crying to you about saving plants. 
-He's an extremely caring guy but he's also a little crazy, he'll go around one night with you, smashing in windshields of cars for fun, vandalizing shit and just causing chaos in the street. If the police are able to catch the two of you he'll help break the windshield of the car to escape. 
-Once you're back at his place he'll make sure you didn't get cut by any of the glass and make sure the cops didn't hurt you too bad. 
-If he sees someone bothering you he won't hesitate to beat the shit out of them, he won't even consider a second option, he WILL fight them and because of his height and strength he always wins.
-If you try to convince him that you could handle it yourself and he doesn't need to attack people, he'll listen and he'd he consider your feelings towards how he behaves. He'll try to stop, instead he'd try telling that person off, if they listen nothing will go wrong, however, if they continue they will wake up tomorrow with a lot of new bruises and scars. 
-He's very gentle towards you though, he cares an awful lot and is always worried about your wellbeing. 
-He's the one who cooks in your house, but on nights you come home from parties or nights where he's out you'll just order pizza and end up eating cold pizza in the morning.
-He likes just watching movies with you, although he probably falls asleep half way through.
-He is the big spoon more often than not, but he does like being held on rare occasions.
-He's always telling you plant facts because you're the only one who'll listen 
-The two of you move to Notre dame together but study different majors. 
-The poor boy would always be under a lot of stress

I don't know if I'll ever actually go through and pull panels to illustrate this, but art design and framing has a huge impact on how sexist a comic feels, and that will impact whether I bother reading it, regardless of the writing.
Costume design is part of it. Does this fit the character's personality and history, and is it practical for what they do? Original Dick Grayson Robin fighting without any leg coverage is not practical, but it fits with his backstory. Helena Bertinelli Huntress, who is also a normal human fighting the mafia but with a very different backstory, fighting with no leg coverage and often compromised torso coverage is neither practical nor in character. So I'm more likely to read Huntress comics from eras where her costume does fully cover her than when it doesn't.
Within costuming, we also have "Does real clothing work this way, or did they just color over the body sketch?" For most superhero costumes that's fine because everyone is drawn that way (boob socks aside), but if it's supposed to be civilian clothes? I'm sorry, t-shirts don't work like that, and very few people tolerate their jeans giving them constant wedgies.
Beyond that though, there's framing. What is the focal point of the page? In what way does the layout lead your eye? Does the focal point flow serve the story, general comic book spectacle (check out this roundhouse kick! look at that robot's cool design! isn't this monster weird!), or is it blatantly a pin-up?
How is the character posed, and why?
Sometimes the camera angle and character pose giving us a butt or boob shot actually does make sense. Generally you can tell by asking "If this was a guy character, and we assume the artist is not attracted to guys, would this be drawn the same way?"
Unfortunately, in a lot of older comics (but not, I'm pretty sure, the earliest ones?) it's really blatantly obviously just for wank fodder. Not as a flow of action, not to set a scene's mood, it's just to titillate.
Titillation can be fun and has its place in entertainment...but so does hard science fiction, and I'm not coming to superhero comics for that, you know? Incidentally getting some cool science facts is different from the story bending itself into a pretzel to justify why this character operates under Real World Physics while this other character is basically a Looney Tune.
From what I've seen, superhero comics are getting a lot better about this! But it can still be a problem, and for fans getting into older works, it can be a genuine hurdle.
And with a backlog of thousands of stories? I'm not gonna spend time on the ones where the art skeeves me out, not matter how good I'm told the writing is.

ST Season 2 Wardrobe Analysis
Mike and Will
If you haven't read my posts on season 1, here's what you need to know:
Pink and blue are colors consistently worn by the Wheelers. They symbolize the idea of the perfect nuclear family or the "norm." Also sometimes shown in a darkened palette as red and blue. The usual choice of neutral for the Wheelers is light grey.
The Byers wear earth tones. Their neutrals are usually cream, tan, ivory, etc.
Mike's color is blue.
Will's color is yellow.
And that's what you missed on...*cough* nvm.
EPISODE 1
Season 2 kicks off with Mike trying to call El on his walkie. He's wearing a pretty standard Mike fit: light grey shirt with blue and red stripes. He's also got some ugly maroon corduroy pants on that I couldn't get a nonblurry or completely dark screenshot of (sorry). Color theory, as other people have declared, states that El's color is red. So far, this has not been reflected in El's own wardrobe, as she has not developed her own sense of style or understanding of self yet. However, it is used in Mike's clothes to reflect that his mind is on her, such as here, where he is clearly missing her and trying to reach out.
Tumblr media
Will is wearing cream, brown, blue, and green. All colors common in the Byers household. But no yellow. I mentioned in my last post that Will doesn't wear yellow AT ALL this season until the Snow Ball. This is a really great visual indicator that he is not himself.
Tumblr media
The following day, Will's shirt is red and green (it's kind of hard to tell from the screenshots :/ sorry). So he's kind of matching...
Tumblr media
Mike. Who is also wearing red and green detailing. Plus Will is in blue pants and a brown jacket and Mike is in brown pants and a blue jacket. The major difference here is that the dominant color in Mike's shirt is blue while Will's shirt doesn't really have one. (Again, absence of identity) These two fit together aesthetically quite a bit this season.
Tumblr media
Will's pajamas are blue (the stripes are red and white), so when his house turns upside down that night, he matches. The choice to make him blend in rather than contrast again gives the feeling that this is where he belongs. If he were fully himself, we might expect to see him in yellow or orange or something warm and bright and we would clearly be able to see that he is in a realm that is not his own. Because he sticks out. Instead, he blends. This is a hint that part of him is still attached to this domain.
EPISODE 2
Tumblr media
I’m not going to discuss why they are the Ghostbusters. But I want to talk about the differences in their costumes. We know these were homemade. We saw Joyce sewing a patch onto Will’s costume in the first episode, so it’s unsurprising that they don’t quite match. Lucas and Dustin match the most. Their jumpsuits are the same color, though it looks like they are different based on pocket placement and collar shape.
Mike’s jumpsuit is a little bit of a warmer color and has pockets on the thighs. Will’s is the most different. In addition to being a different color, it doesn’t have a pocket on the left arm, the wrists don’t cinch, the waist doesn’t cinch, AND he’s the only one not wearing a black T-shirt underneath. For some reason, Will is wearing grey. Plus, his jumpsuit is the most ill-fitted. I think there are two things being achieved here.
Will's insecurities and feelings of displacement post-UD are being represented by making his costume stick out the most. He feels different. He feels like he doesn't belong. He looks different and like he doesn't belong.
It brings us back to the pilot in which Joyce tells Hopper kids at school make fun of his clothes. Everything I said above could have been achieved with the different colored jumpsuit and t-shirt alone, but the jumpsuit also just looks worse. It doesn't fit right. And this reminds us that Will comes from a different economic bracket than his friends.
In addition, Dustin and Lucas matching almost perfectly while Mike sticks out a little (rather than Will sticking out a lot) shows us that Dustin and Lucas, for the remainder of season 2, are the core of the party. Will and Mike are each going through something on their own. Yes, we will see those two come together (at the end of this very episode, in fact), but for now, Mike feels like he's the only one still mourning El and Will feels like he's losing his mind after Owens declared his flashes nothing but PTSD. They each separately feel alone.
EPISODE 3
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is 0% analysis, but I love Mike's lil sweater look here. It's so cute. Anyway, he's once again got yellow detailing in his sweater while Will is wearing none. Plenty of blue, but if you remember me saying at the beginning that earth tones are Byers colors...well, there's an awful lot of brown in Mike's outfit today. Will, on the other hand, is wearing a lot of blue. They seem to be reflecting one another a good bit in their outfit choices today. These are their first looks post "crazy together," so it makes sense that they would appear united, regardless of Will's absence of yellow/inability to be fully himself.
Additionally, when Will and Bob are talking in the car, their jackets are similar.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You can't really tell from this photo, but Bob's tie contains red and green detailing, just like Will's shirt. This is the scene in which Bob actually manages to connect with Will (unfortunately), which is shown by the fact that they are dressed the most closely they ever have/ever will.
EPISODES 4-8
Tumblr media
Mike's outfit consists of: grey shirt with blue and yellow stripes, blue hoodie, and green pants. What a color scheme. His concern for Will has only skyrocketed since the field incident and is essentially the only thing on his mind throughout this episode. Both of Mike's outfits from episode 1 contained red (no yellow) and both outfits since Halloween have contained yellow (no red). His focus has shifted from El to Will.
Tumblr media
Will's in his pjs (the same blue pants he wore in the first episode). But here's an interesting detail: remember when I said light grey was a Wheeler neutral and Byers neutrals are warm? The grey does two things here. Again. Will's wardrobe is multitasking a lot.
It puts him visually closer to Mike.
The change from a warm neutral to a cool neutral also brings him closer to the Mind Flayer. Who likes it cold.
Will has actually been wearing a lot of grey this season, but very subtly. His pj shirt in episode one, this one here, his undershirt on Halloween, his undershirt the following day.
The first two outfits, both from the first episode, are the only ones that haven't included grey so far.
Tumblr media
Will proceeds to spend the majority of the season in a hospital gown. I talked in this post about Will's hospital gown from the season 1 finale and Max's from the season 4 finale. Their designs were clearly chosen for a purpose. Will's was colorful and bright. It was more fun with little triangles on it. It reflected the happy tone of his reunions with his family and friends. In contrast, this one is colder (again, he likes it cold) and lacking playfulness. It's much more similar to Max's gown, and while Max's situation appears more dire, Will is under the influence of the Mind Flayer. Both characters are at risk of losing themselves to Vecna or the Mind Flayer or whoever is at fault. There are tons of parallels between Max and Will, but this hospital gown is just another visual cue to tack on, suggesting that maybe Max is about to endure a struggle for control too.
EPISODE 9
Tumblr media Tumblr media
These outfits are so heinous, I don't even want to talk about them. Sigh. Unfortunately, I made a HUGE deal earlier about this yellow shirt, so...yes, Will is wearing a yellow shirt! He's back!
I tried really hard to zoom in on Mike's stripes and I honestly don't know what color they are. Maybe red? Maybe orange? Maybe brown? Regardless, he's wearing grey and blue, the usuals. But his tie is red. El has returned. Both Mike's red tie and Will's blue tie could be a way of demonstrating where each boy's affections are being directed. However, Mike wearing a brown jacket is a little baffling and disgusting, but continues to tie him into the Byers color scheme.
Additionally, Will's vest is dark green (I know it's hard to tell) and I think Mike's pants are green too? Not 100% sure of that one, though. Here are the same photos with obscene amounts of brightening. You decide.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But I think the ties are really the major detail here. It's a signal of the path Mike is about to run down with El the following season. He clearly has not learned to live with both Will and El in his life at once. The fact that he has worn either yellow or red but never both all season is hugely telling.
Tumblr media
Mike's outfit is stylistically similar to Will's. They both wear button-downs, ties, and sweaters (neither Dustin nor Lucas wears a tie. Or a sweater). But his coloring matches El. The tie matches her belt almost perfectly. The grey of her dress matches the grey of his sweater. They'd match so much it's disgusting if it weren't for that godforsaken brown jacket. I'm not going to say that ugly-ass jacket means Will's getting between El and Mike because I don't think he is (at least not at this stage of the relationship), but I do think it shows that Mike isn't really sure where he stands right now.

JAEYONG'S PROMPT ANSWERS
when did your muse first arrive in yuseong bay? "about the time my mom and dad brought me home from the hospital in jeju city, haha. i'm a lifelong resident; spent my childhood on these farms and beaches and woodlands. i don't think i'd have it any other way, though."
what does an average day look like for your muse? "basically as soon as my eyes open, i'm heading out to check on the bees. it's almost time to relocate them to their natural hives since winter is essentially over, so i like to see how they're doing in the morning when it's cooler. after i tend to them for awhile, i head in and get dressed and then i ride my bike over to andante for some coffee and a pastry. it's kind of a ritual. after breakfast, i head back home and check on the bees again. i might do some weeding around their area or even mow the grass around there. if it's a market stall day, then i'll collect some of the surplus honey and jar it up before heading over to the stall and stocking it up. i'll hang around there for a few hours before, you guessed it, i head back home and tend to my honeybees. it's a tough job, but someone has to do it."
where can your muse usually be found? "at home in my garden, which is where my hives happen to be. if i'm not there, i'm probably at the farmer's market or even the beach."
how does your muse feel about hanhwa resort? "please know that i don't use his word lightly, but ... i hate it. little by little, they are ruining this town. not every natural space has to become a concrete jungle, and that's exactly where i see this going. there are important farms and homes and ecosystems here that they disrupt with their very presence. i have no ill will towards the rank and file employees, they're just doing their job. but the corporate entities that oversee hanhwa? yeah, they're not exactly my favorite people."
is there an aspiration for your muse to stay in or leave yuseong bay? "i have no desire to leave this town. it's my home; it always has been and it always will be. i'll leave the rest of the world for everyone else. you can find me here when you're done."
Tumblr media
list your muse's three favorite songs. gold by wave to earth, wildflower & barley by hozier, dust & gold by arrows to athens.
describe your muse's wardrobe. likes comfortable sweaters and cargo pants, so he can carry his keys, phone, wallet and whatever else he needs without bringing extra storage. lots of cuffed jeans, college sweatshirts, loose cardigans and t-shirts. also owns a few soft yellow bee suits that see a lot of use considering his job.
what is a color, word, and emoji that you feel describes your muse? i think the perfect color for jaeyong is a natural soft yellow or gold that mimics early morning sunlight. his associated word would have to be eudaimonia. his most fitting emoji would likely be 🐝.
three strong likes and dislikes for your muse. likes: fresh honey, soft sweaters & acoustic guitars. dislikes: arguing, harsh chemicals & feeling pressured.
three positive and negative traits for your muse. positive: gentle, compassionate & insightful. negative: obsessive, aimless, timorous.
three talents and shortcomings for your muse. he's very skilled at caring for bees and at entomology in general. he shares empathy even for the smallest insects and tries to help as many thrive as he can, short of damaging or invasive species. he's fairly charming when it comes to selling honey too, and he sells his charisma almost as much as the product. he's also a very skilled guitar player, and can sometimes be found strumming away in his room in between yard mowing breaks. he can be completely spineless when it comes to people, however, and telling them what he really thinks. he's also a little single-minded when it comes to his lifestyle; the success of his hive is seemingly always at the forefront of his mind and it can lead to him neglecting other aspects of his life. jaeyong is very simplistic too, almost to a fault. he doesn't really aim for much in the way of success and rejects a lot of complicated technologies.
what is a book/tv series/movie/video game character that you feel your character relates to? i would most likely compare him to pierre from stardew valley, at least loosely. i also feel like he's a bit like arrietty from the secret world of arrietty!
a relevant goal or arch for your character to overcome. i'd love for his distaste for hanhwa to come to a head in some way, whether that be him just accepting it in the long run or actually doing something about it. maybe his happy-go-lucky nature gets tested like never before and he does something underhanded, and then has to spend his time making up for it? i'd also like to build on his confidence a bit, and make him a little more comfortable speaking up. and then there's the whole obsessing over his bees thing. i would love for him to strike a good balance between his work and the people in his life rather than focusing all his attention on the former.

Greased Lightnin’
Steve Harrington x M/GN!reader | fem aligned + minors dni!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
not my gifs!
CW: swearing, drugs, boyfriend experience, steve being a bit of an asshole (you put him in his place dw), cute shit, steve being a danger to himself LMAO.
pairing: Greaser!Steve Harrington + M/GN!reader.
a/n: so i rewatched grease for the millionth time, which explains this. take these headcanons while i get to requests!
i’d also like to say, thank you for the immense support on my last post! i’ve had a lot of free time recently so i’ve been writing nonstop. hope you guys to continue to enjoy my work.
Having a greaser boyfriend named Steve Harrington:
- He’s definitely got like 70 different hair products and gel. You know all his hair secrets, and he’s made you swear to not tell anyone them.
- At your place, he’s stashed at least 12 different hair products in your bathroom sink cabinet so that he never has to worry about his hair.
- You bought him a leather jacket for his birthday one year and he’s barely taken it off since. Only to wash it.
- He wears a lot of black and constantly complains about the heat — but when you try to make him wear clothing of any other color, he throws a fit and claims that it ruins his intimidating image.
- He has a motorcycle, but is clueless when it comes to using it. He scares you shitless every time he pulls into your driveway, revving the bike loudly, and nearly falling off in the process.
- He annoyingly revs his car wherever you guys go, but when you glare at him — both him and the car go quiet.
- Your dad let you keep his old 1970 Dodge Challenger, which is in pristine condition — and Steve insists that he drives it instead of you every time.
- He acts like he’s the shit around everyone until you show up.
- You caught him bullying a freshman once. You made him write an apology and get the kid some candy.
- He’s seemingly irritated all the time, but the moment you two are alone he’s practically melting into you. A total sweetheart.
- “Can you rub my back?”
- “Can I have a kiss, please?”
- “Can I lay with you?”
- Sometimes he chooses not to use his words, kind’ve like a cat rubbing up against someone as a way of asking for attention.
- He’ll lay on top of you, caressing your arms, and kissing whatever he can reach.
- “Steve, baby, you’re stabbing me with your elbow.” “Mmm.” “I swear to god, Steven — “
- He struggles in his classes sometimes because he’s too busy trying to be cool — and he misses the entire lesson. You do his homework every once in a while.
- If there’s a test coming up, he suggests that you two study together — but you guys just end up making out all night.
- Not a lot of people know you two are dating, but when someone gets suspicious, Steve always has some stupid plan.
- A girl had somewhat caught on to the fact that you two were a thing, so you fake fought each other in the cafeteria. not without making it extremely dramatic.
- “You want some of this, Harrington?!”
- “I’ll beat you to a pulp, L/N!”
- He was offered a cigarette once by one of the other greasers he hangs around, and immediately coughed and choked on the smoke. He came to you whining about how embarrassing it was.
- He only ever smokes around his asshole friends though, never around you.
- He lets you style his hair on the days that you two decide to stay home.
- One time he tried to dress you up in his greaser get up. Leather jacket, slicked hair, and all. He got jealous because he thought everything looked better on you.
- On the days that he can’t come over — he calls you to tell you about all the drama. Who got who pregnant, who cheated on who with who, and who’s banging who’s momma.
- He steals your jewelry and proceeds to flaunt it like it’s his.
- Sometimes he steals one of your shirts and wears it under the leather jacket. He zips it up to keep his aesthetic going — but he likes knowing that he’s carrying something of yours with him.
- bonus: He loves the movie “Grease” and sings all the songs to you.

My Eras Tour Fits, One For Each Era!
also pls bear with me on this, I am boring and dont rly know how to dress, so these may not be that cool
obligatory tagging the people who asked for it + swiftie mutuals: @dybalaispretty, @lonely-salamander, @rainingmbappe, @liverpool-enjoyer, @purefractals, @tam-is-blogging, @charlesluvr !!!!
General Swiftie Fit: I could only put 10 images in this post so I just wanted to describe my general swiftie concert outfit, which would be the iconic 22 outfit, except with full length sweats not tiny shorts because like. I do not have beautiful slender legs like Mrs. Swift.
Now, onto the Eras:
Tumblr media
I just wanted to go for a simple country look. In Swiftiedom, green is the official color of debut, so I went for some supercute green cowboy boots and a simple cowboy outfit! Underneath the plaid shirt I'd imagine I'm wearing one of those "Who's Taylor Swift Anyways? Ew." shirts. I know that's from 22 but I don't care lol.
Tumblr media
Yeah don't judge me. I would pull up with the notepad as well, I would write the chants on it cuz I don't like shouting. I wouldn't wear the hoodie unless it got super cold, but I still made sure the hoodie was on theme! Also I'm aware that's not the pajama bottoms she wore in the vid, I wanted them to be fearless-colored (golden yellow)!
Tumblr media
Since I couldn't wear the iconic Speak Now dress (way too impractical to wear to a concert LOL) so I went for like, a groom's look? I just realized I forgot to put trousers in this. Well they would be a dark purple, much darker than the shirt, almost black. I went for white gloves because it just gives me bridal vibes idk? Like a groomsman. This fit would look perfect beside the Speak Now dress, which is what I was going for.
Tumblr media
Yeah I won't waste y'all's time. I would wear that exact fit. It is the best costume I've ever seen. I just wouldn't wear leggings like she does because once again I don't have legs for days.
Tumblr media
I wanted something that would BLIND ANYONE WHO LOOKED AT ME!! BECAUSE THAT'S THE VIBES OF 1989!!! Keep dancing and don't let ANYONE tell you you're too much! Be goofy and silly who gives an F!!!
Tumblr media
Yeah don't judge me. Reputation is my favorite album. I would 100% go ham and go full bad boy biker with this one! The shirt says "and in the death of her reputation, she felt truly alive" which is the quote I live by. I think I would slay this fit. Too bad I have zero (0) money.
Tumblr media
This isn't exactly what I'd wear. 1) the shirt would have even BOLDER colors. As well as the jacket. This is basically a You Need To Calm Down fit... I love that song so much it makes me wanna dance. Also, my jacket would say "The Man" on the back. I would also do that lover makeup thing with the eye heart.
Tumblr media
"who brings headphones to a concert" well DUH i'm not wearing them. Sometimes we sacrifice logic for the sake of the serve! Also, my stuffed husky, Dustin, is part of this fit, but I can't get a good enough pic of him. Just know he is part of this, I wanted this to give "I'm still in bed" vibes, cuz that's what folklore is to me as an album? Idk, it just gives me that, "I wrote this while nestled under the covers" feel.
Tumblr media
This is just meant to replicate what Taylor already wears on the album cover. Also, I would have a champagne glass.

And last but DEFINITELY not the least, my Midnights fit! I also designed this as a general Eras fit, because tbh the Eras aesthetic is kind of the Midnights one too, if that makes sensee? I wanted this one to give the vibes of that You're Losing Me line, "I'm the best thing at this party, I wouldn't marry me either". Clearly stylish, but meant to be in the back of the party, not the center.

I know this is weird to dump on y’all but can I vent for just a few minutes? If this is even considered a vent since it’s not anything sad, I just wanna get this off my chest real quick.
(If you don’t want to read the essay I wrote scroll to the bottom and just read the TLDR 😅)
I like being a woman. I do. I like using she/her pronouns. I like wearing pretty feminine stuff. And in general I just like to be feminine. I’m happy being a girl.
But I just always wanted to just- try on a suit- JUST JUST HEAR ME OUT FOR A SECOND-
I wanna look like a dapper young gentlemen- like a very posh man that wears like- like one of those eyeglass thingys-
Like this fellow right here:
Tumblr media
I also wanna have a mustache, LIKE THOSE ONES THAT ARE FLUFFY AND COVER YOUR MOUTH- the- THE PAINTERS BRUSH MUSTACHE!! Or examples like: The lampshade, the handlebar, the Hungarian, OR THE IMPERIAL (that one’s GODAM GORGEOUS-)
But more about the suit- I wanna- I PICTURE myself in a black slick suit with a white undershirt and a silk like tie, with nice shiny black buttons and some white gloves to match the undershirt. To show sophistication. With one of those top hats OH I LOVE THOSE!!
I’d like to see it on me but I wanna look more masculine in it like- like what I just said I wanna have a mustache and OH such a deep voice!! I wanna be those narrator voices that are soothing and just, you can fall asleep to them.
I wanna look dapper, I wanna look snazzy, I WANT TO WEAR A SUIT. I want to have a cane that I can lean onto while standing, I want other men to talk to me like if I were just another guy.
I WANT TO BE ONE OF THOSE GUYS- that are like, buff but also a bit fat since, ngl I would genuinely like to be a fluffy guy, AND REALLY TALL and look down at people. I want to be tall too not just as a man but as me because I just wanna be the size of my dad. At LEAST 6’0 that’d be AMAZING.
I WOULDN’T JUST WANNA WEAR A SUIT EITHER- I wanna be a gentlemen that wears warm cream colors and a nice soft brown sweater with a beanie and THOSE BOOTS. (You know the ones I’m talking about-). I wanna have big legs and wear those jeans that look HUGE to other people but are normal for you cuz you’re just a big guy! I wanna wear that, THAT AMAZING SMELLING COLOGNE GOD DO I WANT TO WEAR COLOGNE.
Okay- to wrap things up- sometimes, I just want to look masculine AND IF ANYTHING IF I CAN’T LOOK MASCULINE AND APPEALING (and smoke cigars like one of them guys in the movies, drink alcohol or beer even though I don’t like it- OH AND HOW HAVE I NOT MENTIONED WANTING TO HAVE THAT MAN GOLFER FIT-)
OKAY BUT REAL QUICK- I’d want to have like A BUNCH OF PAPER BOY HATS (I already wear them and I LOVE THEM SO MUCH- but if I looked like a man?? 🤯🤯) with like different colors to have one each day to match the shirt I’m wearing- with brown pointed at the tip shoes that are shiny and SO SO HANDSOME!!! I wanna look handsome I want someone to tell me I look handsome in like a vest and a red tie with a paper boy hat and nice cologne and A GOD DAMN SOPHISTICATED ASS MUSTACHE!- And when I go golfing with buddies I have the casual golfer fit, BECAUSE THEY JUST SO NICE AND SPIFFY AND HANDSOME I WANNA LOOK LIKE THAT!!!
I love being a woman, I REALLY DO- I like being a woman because in the future I wanna look beautiful in pretty dresses and nice necklaces and pretty shiny hair (short obviously-) and cute glasses to match my cute outfits! Heck I wanna wear some of these dresses:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Vintage I know- but you gotta admit they look GORGEOUS!!!
And I’ll admit I’m completely fine with being a woman because of this! I wanna look pretty in dresses, be called beautiful, have a dazzling outfit to make myself look even prettier!
But I also just, wanna look handsome! Wear a suit. Have a mustache. Have a nice deep voice and- funny story- I remember I saw an episode of Steven Universe where Pearl was wearing a suit and I thought she looked AMAZING!!
I ended up telling my mom that when I got to Prom I want to have a suit, which my mom laughed and jokingly said I would look like a lesbian. Of course I don’t like woman like that, I think they’re all beautiful but just not like that. But in general I thought to myself I just wanna see myself in a suit, a tie, nice shoes, a nice hat, with cologne. And I again don’t even have to look masculine, I just want to look handsome and spiffy!
I started liking the idea of having masculine facial hair because I can’t stop thinking about if I did have those things, they would be AWESOME!!
I’m sorry if I ended up writing too much or confusing you with my words, so in long short of it:
I like being a woman, wouldn’t mind wearing a suit, wouldn’t mind having a masculine voice features hair etc, and I wanna look handsome. But I still like dressing femininely.
I’m sorry for the long talk, I just wanted to spill my mind a bit, nothing much to it though 🤷‍♀️
