okay i love the emotionally stupid gay men as much as the next guy (clearly) but man it was actually so refreshing to hear, explicitly in repeatable words!, that a character loves the other romantically and undeniably.
like, i get whats happening when characters dont say it in words, right? its been the way of doing things for years for reasons, but nowadays its mainly 'the character hasnt realized how they feel yet' or 'theyre in denial of how they feel' or 'they cant find it in them to say it out loud yet' and hey, those are all fine! theyre so super fun and add to the drama and story
but holy shit to actually hear stede be like 'the man i love is ed' (paraphrasing) like got damn and in the first season too??
just. what an absolute treat. didnt realize i wanted that until i got it. thank you.

YOU USED TO LIVE A BLONDED LIFE₊˚⊹ ᰔ(๑ᵕ⌓ᵕ̤)>c[_]
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
in which it’s almost valentines and all wonbin can think about is the girl on his bus rides home.
wonbin x fem!reader
cussing, awkward, kinda bad ngl, reader is poc ermmm enjoy :3
“I’m lonely, I need a man before Valentine or I’ll go fucking insane” you speak coming up behind your friend Luna who practically jumped out of her seat phone flying in the air “Goodness! Someone needs to go put a bell on you” you look down at her with a menacing stare getting out of your 🕴️pose and going to the other side to grab your chair, stepping over her phone.
“I feel like you’ve already gone insane,” she picks up her phone thanking God it’s not broken “Cute hair by the way” she points out your now dark brown hair up put in a ponytail and a white headband with a fluffy blue star clip attached to it, you smile softly touching your hair “hopefully that cute boy on the bus thinks the same, he’s always staring at me I think he wants at me” you let out a giggle and jump up and down on your chair “oh my GOSH he’s so fine how~”
“shut up I’m sure he’s going to like it your pretty and look straight out of one of those old quirky Japanese fashion magazines, also you don’t have the worst personality” she states finishing her coffee “Oh? whatever fuck you let’s go” you kick her under the table and watch her face curl up in pain laughing out loud.
You guys shuffle out of the cafe with grumpy faces seeing all Valentine’s decorations and giddy men and women with gifts for the significant others, “disgusting” you sneer “Be happy” you glare at her “Shut the fuck up and be mad with me fuck valentines!” you slightly shout her eyes darting around not understanding how you have no shame(in Korea), you were a strange complex person but she loved you for it, deciding to ignore the glares.
Not even on the bus yet eyes immediately start darting trying to find the boy excited dressed just for him even though in the back of your mind you knew you were never going to go up to him ever, especially remembering your first interaction.
To make a long story short he was at the bus station at 1 am doing God knows what (waiting for the bus) and since there was barely anyone there you and Luna thought it was the best time to do a silly little TikTok you sprouting with energy cause Luna just gave you tons of it.
The song was slowed down so there you were dancing your heart out (slowly) to Ma Boy by sistar19 to get the perfect video and everything would’ve been fine if you didn’t heard the stifled laugh that the boy was holding.
Your face contoured with fear and Luna's deadpan while tapping your shoulder to run. And ever since then you’d see the boy every day, which would be concerning any other man but this was a breathtaking man who looked at you like he wanted to go down on you any moment.
Luna says it’s not that bad because the video ended up being great the sped up video making people laugh and you guys got viral the next day but you think that was hands down the most embarrassing moment of your life.
“I think you guys would look good together” your friend states while you guys eagerly waiting for the bus “What do you mean? How?!” you get giddy slapping her arm “idk it give cute black cat bf and weird orange cat gf” “okay can you hop off always trying to insult me” “that’s what I do best” “oh you're a fucker” “ow! Stop pinching me gay fuck” “You’re g-”
“the doors open” a quiet voice that belonged to no other than your future(not really) pretty black cat boyfriend >:3
you both barely look back and beeline into the bus.
“haha,” you awkwardly laugh a little too late at the boy who looked at you a little silly, both of your eyebrows raised strangely at each other “Oh my gosh” Luna muttered.
You turned around all of a sudden you would like to leave right about now.
The bus ride was quite awkward you and your friend standing and chatting sometimes losing yourselves in the convos and laughing a bit too loud immediately going to check if he looked at you a certain way.
You guys shared cute glances here and there you could feel the way he looked at your outfit or the way he scanned your side profile also not failing to catch the soft grin plastered on his face.
When the time came around for you to get off your bus stop you frowned, yeah you guys never talked before and you weren’t planning on it, but his presence was enough you could gladly sit awkwardly next to him as he looked at you with those cute boba eyes, gladly giving him the same look back.
You gave him one last look and a soft tight lip smile before walking away with your friend off the bus, but what you didn’t catch was that he followed you guys off.
“excuse me- excuse me”
You guys turn stiff and you snap back to see him slightly smile and wave “Can I um speak to you, please, not to be weird or anything”
You look at Luna with a smile a little too bright and she nods smiling back and glaring at Wonbin before walking off.
you look back at the boy's direction and you walk up to meet each other properly…
“You changed your hair,” he states blankly your eyes go a bit wide, and chuckle a bit “Yeah I was tired of the blonde, but I’m nervous this might be too plain though it does look a lot better I might add some color or maybe like a couple of blo- sorry I blabbering” he giggles a little too hard eyes turning into crescents and cheeks burning red “sorry that was a weird statement, not your fault, haha but um I’m Wonbin…” he scammed your features and your reactions finding them all so cute how expressive and real you are it’s like he could see you take note of his name in your head.
“Wonbin.. pretty I like it! I’m y/n” his face burned more and he couldn’t help but let out a nervously high giggle “Also pretty I think you're pretty too and I wanted to introduce myself properly and take you on a date or two before you know, Valentine's” gulp.

Ok based on your post, do you have an “oh. Oh.” rec list???? Absolutely love that trope (if it counts as a trope hahahah)
Hello anon! Gosh, I wish my memory was good enough to remember fics that actually include the italicized oh 🤌🏼 the best I can do is rec fics with feels epiphany/moment of realization, I hope that’s ok? I’m probably forgetting a bunch but these came to mind:
Still Life, orphaned (M, 3k)
Hourglass Heart by @bixgirl1 (E, 5k)
It only happened once — depending on how Harry counted.
Closer by @pennygalleon (M, 5k)
All who know them are convinced that Harry and Draco are a couple. But that's just ridiculous.
the keys to your kingdom by thistle_verse (E, 7.5k)
It was nothing so elegant as fucking, the first time they came together. It was teeth just a little too sharp— against a collarbone, on the right-side curve of a jaw, drawing blood from the plushest part of a bottom lip.
Clear As Mud by scoradh (M, 10k)
Set post-war and post-Harry's-conscience...
Take the Moon by @tackytigerfic (M, 15k)
Harry Potter has always wanted a family of his own, and when a deadly blood curse forces him into a marriage bond with his best friend Draco Malfoy, it looks like he might just have found one.
Five Weddings and a Potions Accident by lauren3210 (E, 19k) - this one actually has the oh!!!
In which Harry thinks he’s a playboy, everyone else knows better, and Hermione will kill Seamus if Ron tries to collect on that bet.
Around You Moves by ignatiustrout (M, 29k)
Harry knew Draco was gay when he invited him to move in. He’s never had a problem with this. So why does he feel so weird about Draco bringing men home all of a sudden?
Friends? Is That What We Are? by @l0vegl0wsinthedark (E, 33k)
What the hell is Harry even supposed to do when he finally realises that he loves Draco? He's an idiot and it takes him a while but he gets there. They get there.
Clouds That Veil the Midnight Moon by @drarrytrash (E, 36k)
According to Harry’s personal narrative regarding the incident, he’d hooked up with Draco Malfoy for purely self-destructive reasons, or out of convenience, or by some unlucky accident. Looking at him, sprawled in the moonlight, Harry is devastated to recall that he’d hooked up with Draco Malfoy because he’s hot.
Follow the Water by @xanthippe74 (T, 38k)
Harry Potter’s life is fine. Maybe a little dull and predictable, but he shouldn’t complain about that, right? When he unexpectedly finds himself at Luna’s house one afternoon, Harry gets invited to join the secret wonderland that she’s creating with a surprising group of friends.
Here's The Pencil, Make It Work by ignatiustrout (M, 49k)
Harry thinks "Why is Malfoy working in a coffee shop in muggle London?" is a much simpler question than, "Are you going to accept that auror offer and, if you don't, what will you do?"
Modern Love by @tackytigerfic (E, 61k)
Harry Potter, of all people, knows that life isn’t always fair. And no one gets to be happy all of the time. But surely there’s something more—something better—than a rubbish Ministry job, and a lonely old house, and that feeling that everyone out there is doing a better job of living than Harry is.
We Are Young (I'll Carry You Home Tonight) by Femme (E, 68k)
Harry and Draco have been falling into bed on and off again since the last election five years ago, much to the amusement--and financial gain--of their circle of friends.
Little Deaths and How to Avoid Them by nerakrose (T, 96k)
Malfoy is way too interested in coroner reports for somebody who's definitely not looking for ways to die, Harry wants to be friends with him, and Ginny wants to break up with Harry.
Grounds for Divorce by Tepre (E, 122k)
Malfoy finds a coin. Harry finds a letter.
What We Pretend We Can't See by gyzym (M, 131k)
Seven years out from the war, Harry learns the hard truth of old history: it’s never quite as far behind you as you thought.
By the Grace by lettered (T, 140k)
Harry is an Auror instructor. Malfoy wants to be an Auror.

i dont think i sent you one yet.....jake/rusty and number 42! Just Some Guys :)
baby jake...my first love... anyway #42 is "Sun is Shining" by Axwell Ingrosso which is kind of always on the list bc it is one of my favorite songs.
Then you came my way on a winter's day Shouted loudly come out and play Can't you tell I got news for you Sun is shining and so are you
I have not been to a gay bar in umm maybe a decade lmao, but I was thinking about talahu'i saying Rusty has a Folsom mustache (lodged in my brain forever actually) so obviously we must take it in that direction. also thinking about how Jakey is so quietly and consistently good at what he does, but bc he is on a team with [gestures], he doesn't get quite as much media/fan attention? obviously not going unloved but I don't see him on the dash so much. anyway this is OBVIOUSLY a fic where Jake is on year 5 of his contract staring in the mirror going aren't you tired? don't you just want to go apeshit? about his whole entire life...like he's on year 5 of a contract! re-signing contract talks are going well! he wants to stay in Pittsburgh, he thinks! but JESUS CHRIST THE POWERPLAY. also starting to feel his age - he's 29 whole years old! all his teammates are married! some of them have kids! and he's NEVER been able to make it stick. he's had gfs but the relationships have always fizzled out.
anyway out going for a jog one evening to get his frustration out, working on a new route, runs right the FUCK into rusty coming out of a leather bar. jake does not know what a leather bar is. "bro, why are you--" he gestures at rusty in leather. rusty grimaces. the man on his arm (also in leather) does not look impressed. jake wipes his forehead with the hem of his shirt. the man on rusty's arm makes a strangled noise. jake sighs. he gets that reaction from men a lot. he's never known what to do with that but he's from the midwest so he defaults to politely not acknowledging it. "is this a sex club thing? i won't tell, but like--"
"oh he's cute?" says the man on rusty's arm. "he's so blonde. he looks like the sunshine on a cloudy day."
"I do?" says jake
"Jake--" begins Rusty.
"can we take him home?" says the man on Rusty's arm.
"He wouldn't know what to do with you," says Rusty.
"I could teach him. You could teach him. Is this that blonde thing from work you keep talking about? Because if he looks this good on the street, imagine how he'd look on my bedroom floor."
Jake blinks.
"Oh," he says. "Oh gosh."
"Well?" says the man on Rusty's arm. "what'd'ya think kid."
Jake shrugs. "Probably too gross, hah. I haven't showered yet today."
"Good," says Rusty with a deadly smile.
"We like 'em sweaty," says the man.
Jake says, "oh wow. Well, that's quite an offer. Appreciate it. You really think I'd look good on a bedroom floor? Like on my knees? Gosh. I gotta go, um, home, though. Bye. Thank you. See you tomorrow."
Runs home. Jerks off three times in the next 5 hours. Does NOT think about Rusty in a leather vest. Showers four times. Makes his favorite mac and cheese recipe for comfort. Goes to bed and has a weird formless sex dream where the details are vague but the arousal is real.
Was it his ex-girlfriends, he thinks, or was it just him.

Killing Stalking AU:
Okay when I read Killing/stalking I was a bit disapointed. Too much killing not enough stalking -_-
And so Imagine Luo Binghe who is a serial killer instead of wives it's girlfriends and instead of marrying them he kills them. And Shen Yuan, who bought the apartment just to observe such a thing ends up obsessed he calls the victims 'wives' till death do they part, and he has an obsession with the seriel killer.
Like bordering on gay but he's still in denial.
Already he has a list of all the names of the girls, Ning Yingying was the first and now he's up to Qui Haitang, already he counted that Luo BInghe was accumilating an anti-harem.
Shen Yuans room is FULL of photos, clothes, even HAIR of Binghe as well as Luo Binghe in a apron, bloody and cleaning up his mess.
Shen Yuan loved him. Quircks and all.
But he wasn't stupid, not only was the evidence of Binghe's crimes in this room, footage and videos of girls going into Luo Binghes house then NEVER returning, wanted posters and last places they were timed perfectly. A little plushie doll of Luo Binghe as well in a corner. But he also hid evidence around the city, places with his name on it, most were holding his anime stuff but after the first five lockers the rest were filled with nothing but Binghe's crimes. He never went back to the old ones, to obvious instead he would pay for a new locker and fill that one up.
NSFW undercut
And Sy whose still in the closet probably thought it was normal to react, esp seeing the stallion having sex with the women in his bedroom, with his camera Shen Yuan could see everything.
At one point it even felt like Luo Binghe looked up and locked eyes with him, it made Shen Yuans breath hitch. It wasn't possible, it was dark, lights out, and Shen Yuan shivered palming himself, so hard it was the point of pain.
And this was when he decided to get closer.
Shen Yuan wears a disguise, Luo Binghe didn't like men, only women. So Shen Yuan wears a wig, with a hat and glasses and actually nice clothes. He dresses nicer as a women than he would as himself, in just sweats and loose jumpers.
He sits at a cafe and watches a girl on Luo Binghes arm Wife #32 Shen Yuan couldn't believe he was sitting right next to them.
And each time he would get closer, changing his looks, and disguise, practically listening in. Listen to the lies Luo Binghe would say, his favourite colour? Song? Movie?
Shen Yuan saw into his house, he knew what Luo Binghes interests were better than these wives.
He got too close once, when a wife dropped her wallet, he picked it up.
"Excuse me?"
She turned with a sneer on her face, that was usually how people reacted to Shen Yuan, like he was gross. He knew he would look alright with decent clothes hair cut, but he had that attention before, he didn't want it again.
But seeing it was just a small girl with a face mask pacing her her wallet with kind eyes, the sneer fell away into surprise.
"Oh my gosh! Thank you!"
"It's no problem, I understand the stress of losing your credit cards and having to cancel them and start over- I'm overally clumsy like that aha."
Luo Binghe was staring at him, and Shen Yuan couldn't help but shiver at the attention.
At that moment thats when Shen Yuan realised something, back in the comfort of his home. He may actually like Luo Binghe...
well...it's just Luo Binghe, right? maybe he's just bi and only likes him?
Either way, he kept skirting around him, until the wife inevitably died and he sat at the cafe, waiting for Binghe with his next fiance-
"Hello, miss. I thought I'd find you here."
Shen Yuan held back a flinch as he glanced up, "Ah hello there, I kinda recognise you," Shen Yuan leaned closer as Luo Binghe sat down before him but internally he was freaking out.
Was he wearing the same disguises over and over!?
Did Luo Binghe figure him out!?!?!?
"My names Luo Binghe, and you are?"
"Um," Quick think of a name! "Xiao Gongzhu."
"Little palace mistress? Hmm suits you."
Like hell it does! But that was the only thing he could think off!
"I was just wondering," Luo Binghe looked bashful, and it broke Shen Yuan out of his thoughts, he looked so boyish it was cute.
"Could we trade numbers?"
What? He killed Wife #32 already? wait- was Luo Binghe seriously seeing Shen Yuan as a potential wife!?
This was bad- it was going to mess up Luo Binghes streak! He was the protagonist, he couldn't mess up because he was accidently tricked by a man!
Also the not-dying thing would be great and if Shen Yuan didn't go back to his apartment and pay rent then the landlord will come in and SEE all of his evidence, Binghe would go to jail!
"Uh yeah sure- I mean yes!" Shen Yuan spoke then grimaced at how flustered he was, even so he still couldn't believe it- Binghe's number!
Luo Binghe hummed "Hmm I'll put you as Princess, if thats okay I like giving pretty girls like you pet names. You can think of a name for me too."
"Hmm, I like Bingpup, you're like a cute puppy who deserves head pats!" Shen Yuan spoke and saw Luo Binghe's smile stiffened.
Shen Yuan immedietly preened aha thats right! Luo Binghe hates being called dog or mutt! He found out that Luo Binghe had an awful teacher who would call him that in school! He found that out by waiting for Binghe to take wife #16 on a date and bugged his house!
When they were getting intimate after their pillow talk Luo Binghe admitted such a sad thing.
Because wife#16 called him a good puppy during foreplay, and when she said she'd never do it again he agreed and said she won't then straggled her. Shen Yuan listened to that footage over and over again.
When Luo Binghe stood up, Shen Yuan giggled "Oh and one more thing." He stood up too, flipping his hair over his shoulder.
"If you think you can take me as the next wife, you can forget it."
Luo Binghe paused looking confused, "I'm sorry?"
"I know your type, playboy. You have a fiance wine and dine, but after the first night your the type to believe in death do us part." Shen Yuan emphansised the smile on Luo Binghe's face faded. "This is amazing, the Luo Binghe! I'm such a huge fan," Shen Yuan kept his voice low, so the other patrons at the cafe wouldn't here. "I actually liked Liu Mingyan, such a good girl she knew martial arts as well. Pity, but I don't plan to be accumulated into your 'harem' I don't like to share. No, I prefer to watch."
Luo Binghe eyes narrowed, "Do you think it's a good idea to be telling me this?" Shen Yuan looked at him with pity, "I can't help it, your so cute and I didn't want to lie to that face when I turned you down. it's not any of Binghe's fault, I just genuinly like to watch, if we cross that step I'm afraid I'll have to die of shame." Before he left he also glanced back, "Oh, and I'm a collector by the way, I have evidence all around Shang hai completely hidden unless I mysteriously disapear, someone is bound to find everything. See you around, Husband."
Shen Yuan flaunced away, knowing he was being followed, thank GOD for public bathrooms, he walked in, immedielty removing his wig, hoodie and skirt and pulling on his baggy and drabby clothes, and oiled up his hair to look more greasy and gross espeically from wearing a wig, he dumped the back in the bin and walked out, slouching and on his phone, he walked past Luo Binghe who stayed leaning against pillar waiting for the 'women' to leave the bathroom.
Shen Yuan still didn't trust it, hailing a taxi and purposfully going the awkward way to get to his apartment. Even then he decided to back track and couch surf on his friends sofa instead, just to be safe.
Even so, when he recieved a text from Binghe, vaguely threating him, promising he'll find him and kill him, Shen Yuan shivered feeling his breathing hasten.
"You can try, Husband."
-
So long story short, Liu Qingge is the policemen interogating his sisters mysterious death, finds Shen Yuan and believe him to be a victim of domestic abuse, and yeah both Luo Binghe AND Shen Yuan are playing cat and mouse the power imbalances keep changing, and at one point, Shen Yuan finds himself actually going on dates with Luo Binghe, even helping him take down a wife with his 'husband' it's such a rush. And for a moment even Luo Binghe felt affection for Shen Yuan and didn't care that it was revealed he was a guy, even started having some fucked up moments of his own, comparing Shen Yuan to his mother. Shen Yuan: Hello police? Theres a man with a milf kink send him to jail!
Even so theres honeymoon moments, SY actually spends a night in Binghes house but thats where it all goes wrong, SY is now a wife, he just doesn't die straight away, forced to being trapped in the kitchen dressed as a women and still playing their cat and mouse game as Luo Binghe is trying to force him to reveal his evidence, he claims he'll stay with Shen Yuan properlly if he does. And then SY at one point escapes the house, finds Liu Qingge and confesses everything and even gives him the keys to his apartment and the locations of the lockers with the evidence.
Luo Binghe finds him, says he saw SY with another man, had he grown bored with him?
Pretty much ends the same way as Killing Stalking both die in the end, Luo Binghe dying alone, and SY still thinking he's alive and is frazzled ends up going into on-going traffic.
-I think with the story it was supposed to end tragically, because neither were good people, but I just hated how the character in KS was reduced to an innocent uwu who was sexualised but didn't have a braincell- I would've preffered if there was some intellectual schemes, like KIRA VS L both smart people trying to one up the other and maybe just a hint of romance, delusion on both sides, Binghe finally seeing SY as his partner in literal crime but then because of jealousy ends up trying to kill SY after he's another Wife isn't he?

Oh my gosh ok my gay people my favorite in love exes not canon but so real . I'm so insane about them idk where to begin okay uhhh....
to preface they are from the adventure zone: ethersea and on here we call em oksamber.
So they're both like 40+ year old women living in an underwater city that was built to survive the apocalyptic storm. I will start off explaining them as individuals then get into their story and dynamics ig
One of them is sort of a washed out hero, like 25 years ago back on the shore she discovered she has these astral arms when she went to fight these nasty sharks, and has been vigilant ever since even though the threat is gone. She kinda hangs around a club house slash diner (called the cloaca) until she goes out adventuring again. Um she has -1 charisma and is kinda brash and doesn't love butting heads with authority she'd rather stay out of all that, she buys a cabin for their ship just for her and when she gets a fancy jacket she rips the sleeves off and she is a great fighter but is also thinking 0 steps ahead and as such pissed her pants on purpose to ambush a guy. I'm in love with her. Her name is Amber Gris.
Okay the other one. She is the head of defense for the city and is essentially both on city council and the leader of a big battleship (called the biggest baby) with the defense force of the city.. they're kinda like cops but kind of not. And she has this strong connection with this war god whose bones the ship is made out of. Like part of leading and piloting that is communicating with him. But she has this heavy duty she takes on, and she is rather prim n proper and a little awkward but doesn't take shit from people, she's rather confident and she's strong as hell and um I love her. Her name is Kodira.
So we are first introduced to Kodira in a flashback except her name at the time is Oksana. And she's asking Amber for help getting something and they banter about it and Oksana goes "I've seen you climb trees y you're slick" and amber goes fine..". They're friends back 25 years ago on the shoreside, basically.
The next time we see this character, she is walking into the diner, in uniform (formal plate armor) and learn her name is Kodira, but amber used to know her as Oksana,, n she is almost unrecognizable because she's aged a lot under her position but also because they don't see each other a lot.... And then they banter and Kodira takes a danish and interrogates her about how she killed some of her men and then after they resolve that amber asks her to stay for coffee but Kodira is like no I have to go but then offers her a job working with her on the battleship and they're just... They're sweet, there's clear tension but there's also a clear familiarity...
Anyways I'm trying to not be a plot summary out here but uhh they just have such a chemistry together that is sharp but sweet? It isn't canon that they're like in love or whatever but the characters just are so compelling in that way? Like you can tell from the way they interact that they have a history.
They end up bringing Kodira along for some of the missions they go on, and the last one near the finale is.<3
Shit happens they banter they have serious conversations, Kodira stays in Amber's cabin🤨,they get to the final place which is like a coral tower. And Kodira stays behind on a floor just in case whatever comes up from behind and then amber and her crew are in a boss fight,, but eventually amber hears battle from downstairs so she rushes down at inhuman speed
And she finds Kodira there, but there is a glowing eye indicating the god has taken over, and he has some evil or morally grey plans or whatever but amber has to fight her and there's a moment when Amber has her from behind in a bear hug, says shshsh I'm not gonna fuckin fight you, and ends up punching her in the stomach just to see if there's any of her in there, and the god goes, wow she... really... Doesn't want me to fight you blah blah etc fight more amber jumps through a portal and Kodira jumps through too
They end up in a new world, on a beach, and realize they are gods in that world. And they chat, have some emotional vulnerability (which neither have really shown to other characters), asking if they did the right thing, and the god in Kodiras head dies. And then she refers to herself as Oksana, and we realize like oh she's no longer this version of herself commanded by this god she doesn't have that responsibility anymore,, and then they joke a little bit and they're just really really sweet with each other in a sort of rough way
What makes me insane about them is the tension of course but the ease with which they just are with each other... And I'm obsessed with exploring these different ideas of who they were vs became, the change over the years, what happened in those 25 years we didn't see,,, and honestly the fact that there was never any specific conclusion with their relationship or any like specific mention of them dating or whatever,, works rlly well for me here? Because they would have no reason to bring that up in the story especially bc those people don't like talking about their personal lives or pasts or anything and like if you've ever had that homoerotic female friendship that ends poorly like... They remind me of that a bit but after the healings happened.
. If u want to see me be insane about them more or unpack more specifics of what their deal is or what entices them to me (?) the #oksamber tag is literally so full of brainrot. I love them a lot. There are so few people who are crazy about them but the ones who are are truly mad alongside me<3 we may be few but we are mighty.
Anyways um that was a lot of words .. hope it helps. Good luck best wishes!
I'd never heard of this ship before but I love it so much!! Thank you!!!
TMG song this reminds me of: Twin Human Highway Flares
Highlights: "On the day that I become so forgetful / That all of this melts away / I will burn all the calendars that counted the years down /To such a worthless day"
Notes: I love how you described the history between these two women and how it lends an unspoken weight to every interaction they have. This song has a similar feeling to me. Even in desperate situations, they cling to each other. It's not a young romantic fling so much as a deep and intense and abiding love. They can't forget each other and they haven't forgotten each other. They will always matter to each other, no matter what happened, no matter what will happen. There will always be love there.

Angel Dust was my closet key (but not in the way you'd expect)
Tumblr media
This one's gonna be a bit of a personal post, so bear with me.
For most of my life, I considered myself a pretty hetero guy. I felt attracted to women, I didn't feel attracted to men and I was mostly fine with that. However, around a couple years ago, when I was participating in Yuri Jam, I came across a little term called "biromantic" and something clicked for me.
In case you don't know, "biromantic" is a term that applies to a person who feels romantic attraction for both men and women. Back then I thought "Oh yeah, I guess I am that!", then I came out on twitter, no one cared about it and I moved on with my life.
At the time, I thought I did for attention and out of guilt for being a cisgendered heterosexual male, and to be fair, I think it's a valid expectation for most people to want *some* attention when you have something to say that's comparable to that. A part of me also felt like it wasn't a useful discovery, because 1: I know of no men who want to date other men in a purely romantic non-sexual way and 2: I've been single by choice for a while anyways.
But all of that changed when I first saw Angel Dust on the Amazon series.
Tumblr media
I was like: "Oh my gosh" 😳 That guy has a very hot voice. I thought he was so confident, so assertive, every line he spouted made me melt into a giggling 6 year old. And then I was like: "Oh. I guess those feelings were valid. I'm in love with Angel Dust" 🥺💖
Now I just wanna gush a little because I just think Angel Dust is such a cool character. The way he's portrayed makes you think he's meant to be obnoxious, but to me he's so proud, so bold, so brave for being himself. The way he flirts with Husk with such assertiveness is so attractive to me. There's something so raw and geniune about it.
Another thing that blows my mind is that, even though we know this "confident" persona is meant to be façade and he only puts face as a coping mechanism, the fact that Angel is capable of putting that face is mind blowing to me. He's gone through one of the worst versions of Hell I can imagine, he's been used, humiliated and hurt, both physically and psychologically and yet he's still capable of putting on a smile.
Needless to say, I don't intend to glorify the stuggles of an abuse victim, what Angel goes through is an atrocity and it shouldn't happen to anyone in a fair world. But the fact that that's his reality and he still manages to struggle through the best way he can makes him such a badass to me.
I also feel obligated to mention his redemption arc. I think Angel was always a good person, he just needed to right space to grow. From the start, he seemed very sociable and empathetic, it's just that he was too jaded to care about others. I think taking care of Niffty and standing up to her in episode 6 just came naturally for him, there was no need for a very strict guidance, just some nurture.
He's such a sweetheart! His interactions with Charlie in episode 3 are also so cute. I could write a whole post about his relationship with Husk and I probably will. I think it's really cool that despite being so different, they find a way to meet in the middle and come out as better people from it.
I don't know what it is about him, but I watched Angel on the show and I was like "Oh yeah. I wanna smooch that spider man" 😚
Tumblr media
It felt like a big relief, because until now I wasn't ever sure if these feelings were "real", or I was just a hetero who wanted to feel special and not hated in the social circles I usually frequent. That's a whole topic of discussion for another day, I know there's people who will argue that heteros can't be the victim of prejudice and I'm not interested in arguing about that today.
I just wanna say, I love you Angel Dust and thank you for opening my eyes. Now I can indulge in my occasional romantic attraction to men without feeling like a false gay wannabe.
Thank you for bearing with me for a very special post. I was a little sick this week, but I managed to find a moment to write it anyways. I'm still working on the next chapter of my fic, but hopefully I'll find a moment here and there to keep writing discussion posts here.
Stay tuned! 🕷💖🤍

Crane: 12, 27, 30
Thanks so much for sending this! <3
Send a character and a number/several numbers, and i’ll answer:
12. Sexuality hc!
I have my biases in this, I'll admit, but I genuinely read the not-so-good Doctor as bi/pan in that I don't think he particularly cares about gender when it comes to his attractions and there's textual support over the years with various iterations of him showing interest in or having chemistry with both women and men. Yes, yes, Have a Gay Old Time and all that, but his intro comic suggests, "he certainly is a queer fellow" - given that his Year One backstory is a gender-flipped Carrie, itself popularly read as a gay allegory (hell, I think his bullies even were specifically homophobic towards him), given the long affinity between LGBT+ folk and horror/identifying with the horror monsters, and even given how blissed out Nolan!Crow looked getting his hair pulled by Batman, I'd say there's a lot to work with there.
27. If they could meet a character from another show/movie/etc, who would be the most fun for them to meet?
Absolutely love this one! I've already had a ton of fun speculating with you about him meeting Dani Ardor of Midsommar, fitting because she's even a psych major if I remember correctly, and going back and forth with what could be done with such an AU. Honestly, any horror villain and/or hero(ine) would suit him because what's so great about Crane is that as Scarecrow he works within any text to reveal a character's deepest fears and relationship with fear, while also having an academic/professional interest in them as a psychiatrist. I do think I've seen posts on here speculating on the fun he'd have with Jack Seward as a potential ally and/or rival/disappointing colleague, so that's a definite one also! And because I'm predictable, it would likely not be healthy (in that he would enable/encourage her most violent instincts, but hey, at least theyr'e supporting each other?) but at least a little touching and sweet that he'd be a needed avuncular figure to Carrie White.
30. The funniest scene they had? Oh, gosh, hard to pick just one! When old school Crane declared his plan was to commit heists for more money to buy books? When he beefs it so completely and utterly with Becky and has the chutzpah to think her issue with him is that she wants him to alter that godawful Mistress of Fear straw corset and muppet mask costume? "This is a perfectly rational response to my traumatic experiences, and if you don't believe me, I'll kill you!"? His little dance of joy out the window in the first volume of Year One? The entirety of his appearance in Happy Halloween, Scooby Doo, an extension of his habit of just Showing Up Places He Has No Business Being (including other canons)? On that note, literally everything he does in the Dark Knight Trilogy as he Barbies his way through every villainous profession in Gotham's gig economy? (Though going down that easy in Batman Begins and his sassy little strut out of the truck in The Dark Knight are highlights.) For such a frightening and tragic character, the guy is funny as hell!

Hello!! I absolutely adore all your fates headcanons! They’re always perfect for each character, they feel so canon to me 😤 Thank you for sharing :D
Just out of curiosity, do you have any echoes headcanons 👀 There aren't any birthdays in the game so I realized there wasn't an opportunity for your fun character birthday posts, but I figured I'd ask!
Oh my gosh, thank you so much! That’s very kind of you to say!
Hopefully you are able to enjoy some of the Echoes ones I have just as much. As I’m not quite done the game yet, I can’t say that they’re 100% totally and perfectly canon, but nonetheless I hope they satisfy!
Also, quick special thanks to @fayesdiary for agreeing to read these over for me even though I never actually made them do it lol. I still appreciate the willingness!
Now without further ado, the Echoes headcanons:
1. Potentially a pretty popular headcanon but… I definitely feel like Tobin is gay. The only thing is, is that by the start of Echoes, he hadn’t fully come to terms with that yet. Some time around the ages of fourteen to fifteen, he’d probably realized that he was starting to have some… feelings regarding other guys, but repressed it because, well, Gray and Alm both liked girls, and Kliff never really seemed to care. It would be weird for him to be the odd guy out, right? So he told himself he liked girls. As he grew older and began to grow feelings for other men, I think it definitely bloomed into him deciding that okay, he’s bisexual, but he still likes girls, right? Might even like them best, yeah. But by the end of the war, he knows he just can’t keep denying who he is, and finally decides to announce to the world who he is. He’s a little nervous about telling his friends, but they’re very supportive — especially Alm, although he’s a little bit embarrassingly overzealous about it sometimes.
2. When Clive was older and travelling around, he always made a point to bring back souvenirs for Clair. Whenever he got home, she used to always sit down with him and ask for stories about the world that he saw. Of course he’d indulge his beloved little sister, telling her everything he could think of — sometimes even going as far as writing down specific things he thought she’d be interested in while he travelled, so he could tell her later. Then, he’d always end off his stories with the souvenir present just for her. Sometimes it’d be something like a glittery hair pin from a large city, and other times, it would be something as simple as a bag of homemade cookies from a family’s store in a small town. Nonetheless, Clair always loved and treasured them, and looked forward to it every time.
3. Lukas is amazing with little kids. Being a knight, they already tend to flock to him thinking that he’s a cool hero, but his chill demeanour and patience meshes well with them. He’ll listen happily as a little girl tells him stories about the adventures her dolls take, walk with a toddler as they stop to show him every single stick and rock and bug that they find, and he’ll even teach the kids a few basic fighting moves if they ask. I don’t know if I’d say that Lukas is the kind of guy who would necessarily want to have kids, but they do like him and he likes them, so I think it overall just ends up being a very positive, reciprocal relationship.
4. Alm was very prone to getting injured as a child, not because he was clumsy or anything, but because of impulsivity. Gray could say, “Hey, Alm, you should go do this!”, and Alm would just… do it. If he succeeded, it would be funny, but if he didn’t… it often left Gray trying to comfort him while Mycen tended to his wounds. After Alm got stung by an entire nest of bees, eventually Mycen had to lecture the two boys on not doing stuff like that anymore. Occasionally, though, they might still do it — for old time’s sake.
5. If and when Mae and Boey are ever to enter into a drinking contest against each other, there would never be any actual winner. Neither of them would be all that willing to relent until they were like, totally hammered, so they’d just end up having to call a truce. That is, if they even remember that they were having a drinking contest. They could just as easily get so engrossed in having an argument or spirited conversation that they’d forget. Still, no matter what happens, Celica and Genny still have to make sure their stumbling, silly derrières get to bed safely.
6. Faye wasn’t always as intense as she is about Alm in the main game. It got steadily worse over several years. When everyone was little, it just started out as a simple crush. She liked to be around Alm, because he was nice and funny and he always made sure that the other boys included her. However, after the incident with Slayde happened, she became more interested in the idea of Alm as a hero. Soon she fell in love with him as more of an idealized Prince Charming figure, and her obsessiveness towards him just seemed to grow from there. He was perfect in every way and he saved her in her moment of need, and he would always be there if she needed him. Between her original crush being pretty normal and her sense of security now tied to him, she doesn’t quite gather that her actions are kind of creepy.
7. Saber would definitely try to play it off like he’s not, but he’s honestly a little uneasy around wyverns. Something about their beady little eyes… he doesn’t know why, but there’s something about them he doesn’t trust. Not to mention that a mouth full of sharp, scary teeth? No thank you. He’s not afraid to be near one, of course, but he still won’t get really close if he can help it. The wyvern can stay over there and he’ll approach it if he wants to, otherwise, he will not make eye contact. He is also VERY adamant that he is not afraid, to the point of being just a bit overly defensive.
8. Rinea has a really complex relationship with Berkut. Once upon a time, she really was madly in love with his charm and demeanour, but his fascination with war always made her uncomfortable. At first maybe she thought it was a matter of perspectives, and that maybe through discussion, they might be able to achieve better conclusions and solutions. However, as time went on, it became clear that neither of them would change their point of view. War is Berkut’s pride, and the more he immerses himself in it, the less she feels like she can trust him. Every time she tries to tell him how she feels, he shuts her down or ignores her, so she feels like she can’t talk to him about it. It leaves her wondering if she should go through with their engagement after all.
9. Palla, Catria, and Est probably all gave their pegasuses matching nicknames. Think like Tic, Tac, and Toe or Sun, Moon, and Star. Naturally, it was Est’s idea, but her big sisters were happy to indulge her just this once. Like the girls, the pegasi are bonded to one another, so it ended up making sense that their names all match together. The pegasi also have bonds of trust with each different sister. They will obviously prefer theirs, but because of this trust, they will let the other girls ride them if need be. If Palla were to be stranded somewhere without “Sun”, but Catria could get to him, then “Sun” would happily allow her to board so they could handle things. It’s like they’re all family in some way!
10. When Celica and Alm lived together in Ram, they used to have bad pun competitions. Usually at the dinner table. Some of them were really bad. At first they thought that Mycen was just indulging them by not saying anything, letting them have their little moment, but then there was this one night where Alm was stumped on coming up with a retort to something that Celica said… and then, out of the blue, comes the WORST pun you’ve ever heard from Mycen’s mouth. Like the single BIGGEST dad joke. Alm and Celica were shocked into silence for about thirty seconds, until they erupted with laughter. They agreed that nobody else at the table could win that night other than Mycen. They spent the rest of their time together trying to top that one — years later when they’re married, they’re still probably trying.
11. Genny has always been kind of shy, and is grateful that Celica, Mae, and Boey all spend time with her. There was no way she was going to get away from Mae without a little bit of friendship, and of course Celica would want to be kind to her at all times because that’s just Celica, and Boey would feel the need to apologize if Mae ever got overbearing… and then, it was like Genny blinked, and suddenly she had all these friends! She’s still pretty shy around other people — when Celica’s army joins up she mostly hangs around with any of those three people if she can get in there — but she’s definitely pushing herself to do a bit more when it comes to friends. It’ll just take some practice!
12. Leon has superb judgement when it comes to romantic partners. Is it important that your parents approve? Sure. But does your Leon approve? Because if something’s wrong with them, he’s going to be able to tell right away. It’s like his sixth sense. When he initially told Kamui and Valbar of his special talent in the area, they didn’t believe him. Yet, the next time they spent the night in a town during their travels, he identified couples that would break up and who would be the cause. Sure enough, they later left that village only to return later… and quickly discovered that most of the separations had come to pass. Kamui and Valbar were totally floored.
13. Though she insists that she’s never had any lessons, Sonya is quite possibly the best ballroom dancing partner than anyone could ask for. She’s so graceful and gentle, and incredibly patient, that others just can’t help but find her a beautiful presence when watching and a comforting presence when partnered with her. In all truth, it was her sisters who taught her when she was a girl, after reading about romantic tales from storybooks. Dancing alongside them, the two of them guiding her movements so kindly… she tries to do that for other people as well, and give them a dance worth enjoying. After all, the act always fills her with so much warmth. They are some of her most precious memories.
14. Celica is very sentimental, and will keep just about any present she is given. She still has sloppily-made friendship bracelets that Mae made for her, a plush bunny that Faye sewed for her when she was living in Ram, and many of the books that were passed down to her from her teachers at the Novis Monastery where she grew up. Anything you give her she’ll treasure, and it’s very sweet, but it also means she has a hard time getting rid of some things. That flower crown Alm made for her three weeks ago might be wilting and falling apart, but he made it with love! Surely she can’t just throw it away, right? Right? Okay, perhaps it is making a bit of a mess…
15. Mycen, while strict, is the local Grandpapa. He didn’t really ask for it, either, but after settling in Ram, the children seemed to just sort of flock to him as a war hero. It’s how the other kids all ended up befriending Alm, because they were curious about Mycen. He doesn’t mind his status too much when it comes to the kids, but it always feels a bit weird to have the other adult villagers eyeing him in any particular way. He’ll mostly keep his distance from the adults where he can, but he’ll always have time for the kids. Even years into the future after the war is over and they have moved out of the village, he would still welcome them back to see him if they want to come.

I think I’ve talked about this before but I also feel some kind of way about Guy both like… being older than Thomas and also further removed from the upper classes and the effect that that might have had on his life. Like Thomas was, generously, five-ish years old at the time of the Wilde trials, but Guy was probably in his teens, potentially aware of what was going on, potentially internalizing that shit like WOAH.
And this is probably my own bias, lol, but when I think of suit salesmen I think of fucking. Willy Loman from Death of a Salesman and Alexander Bonaparte Cust from The ABC Murders. Men who lived shall we say not super exciting lives. Like I think of Quentin Sidebotham growing up in this period where he’s internalizing homophobic pressure and NOT realizing things about himself, and when he does, he doesn’t have the freedom that money and aristocratic megalomania bring you—no love affairs with footmen here, thank you very much.
And that doesn’t mean his life is entirely sad—the man still looks like Dominic West, and he becomes a film star at ~40—but I think it can definitely affect like… the Type of man he is and the type of love life he’s had. And flip the dynamic a bit. Like Thomas goes in thinking oh gosh this is a Big Movie Star, everyone wants to be with him, he’s so suave and confident, and internally Guy has a much stronger and more consistent memory of being lonely, and scared, and denying who he is. And in turn he really admires that Thomas has that particular confidence—that confidence *I* have loved about Thomas from the beginning, the fact that HE FEELS NO SHAME in being gay, his angst is SOLELY centered around the exclusion he faces.
So like they both have Experience in some stuff, but not as much as each other thinks. And they figure it out together. And… mutual healing, and gay community, and modeled relationships, and the importance of one’s knowledge of gay history in shaping gay self-identity. I’m wine drunk and projecting like woah. Julian Fellowes didn’t think this through this much.
But I love that Thomas found love in near-middle age with a partner who is firmly middle-aged. You know? I think that’s good. I think they’re both at the point where they still have insecurities, but they’ve LIVED with who they are long enough that they know themselves, and they’re gonna be good for each other. Yeah.

Top 5 movies •̀.̫•́✧
AAH HIIIIII! OH MY GOSH THANK YOU FOR THE ASK!
like with my answer about Video games- answers will be under the cut because I HAVE A LOT OF FEELINGS FOR MY FAVE FILMS
ok these are in no particual order! not sure how coherently I can word but I will try my best!! this will be a long post- so you can find it under the cut!!! I have a lot to say about my fave viddy games (and i am not sorry~) but I am sorry for spelling errors- my brain can not keep up with my thoughts and i want to get everything down and everything goes to mush :////
this is going to be a long post because I have inculded photos and videos!!
The shape of water (2017)
Tumblr media
when I tell people I like this film- i do worry a tiny bit people will be like "oh but isn't that the film where a lady gets spicy with a fish man?" and- ok yes that happens BUT THERE IS SO MUCH MORE TO THE FILM. The film is magical and beautiful and oh so inspiring... the soundtrack- the colours- the characters- the story- UGH love love love <3
this is a film that is very very close to my heart <3
my fave score from the soundtrack is "underwater kiss"
youtube
I personally see The shape of water is a story about otherness and loneliness. Elisa, our leading lady is mute. Elisa's best friend, Zelda is a black woman. Giles, the next door neighbor is a gay man. The amphibian man is not human - all diffrent to the societal norm, what is seen as "normal" . the film being set in 60s america. Racism, homophiba being present ect. The film also raises question of "who is the real monster?" - the main villian of the film being a man who wants to disect the amphibian man- research it.
Most of the communication in the film is non verbal.  (elisa and amphibian man). Sally Hawkins (who plays Elisa) learnt ASL for the film!! As someone who is nurodivergent- I enjoy this type of communication. words are hard, speaking is hard sometimes.
@lady-of-the-spirit made a text post that sums up the feels perfectly!!
Tumblr media
There is one scene in the film that reduces me to tears everytime I watch it. In the scene, Elisa is talking about the amphibian man, how she wants to recuse him. She signs out her fustations. she can not speak, but her body lanuguage is tense- her signing fast. She is close to tears. the line she signs saying " When he looks at me, the way he looks at me. He does not know what I lack or how I am incomplete. He sees me for what I am, as I am." oh my GOD I FELT THAT SO MUCH- because I too feel incomplete, like I lack things. I have linked the scene below. it is powerful and raw and it- it makes me feel
youtube
the cinematography in this film is utterly breathtaking. Everything has this green hue- greens and blues. The set designs are so charming too! Elisa's bathroom is so pretty- the tiled walls - the flooring- how everything is a soft colour !! below are a few shots I love~
Tumblr media Tumblr media
2. the matrix (1999) (flashing image tw for the trailer!)
Tumblr media
AH, the matrix, by beloved!!!!! This film altered my brain chemisty- little 15 year old bunny had her mind blown ... i could yell about this film for the longest time. I have yelled a little about this to my dear @imaginarycyberpunk2023 already !! (´。• ᵕ •。`)
CHARACTERS- CINEMATOGRAPHY- USE OF GREEN- THE DODGE THIS SCENE- COSTUME DESIGN. SOUNDTRACK- BELOVED KEANU!!!- CARRIE ANNE MOSS------ UGH I LOVE IT ALL seriously - this movie slaps and is such a source of inspo to me. Literally - idk where to begin, so I'm just gonna rammble and see where this goes.
There's specifically one scene in the film that is PURE SOUND ART - well its all art but HEAR ME OUT OK- the scene where neo ans trinity first meet at the night club- HOW THE MUSIC TRANSISTIONS SO SMOOTHLY FROM ROB ZOMBIE'S DRAGULA TO THE PRODIGY'S MINEFIELDS when trinity starts to talk- OH it gets me all hyped every god damn time!!! Provided the scene below. (((((Hopefully, it loads in properly. I've moved to mobile for this text writing - )))))
youtube
The matrix was probably my first proper "i like men" moment- I went and rewatched the matrix again when I was 17- at the time I was fulling affirmed in the "i am a lesbian i like women women PRETTY AAAAAAAAAA" but then- Seeing 90s Keanu?? him as neo- my brain going wait "oh.. uGHM UH-... myabe I am attracted to men as well...??" or maybe it was just?? an attraction to the character?? ANYWAY- 'M NOW JUST HERE - 23 AND VIBING- I STILL DON'T REALLY KNOW but that's ok!!
THE COSTUME DESIGN- IT IS SO DOPE. Below is my fave costume/outfit. The long heavy coat- the STRAPPY HARNESS PANTS AND OH THE BOOTS- THE BOOTS ARE STUNNING. How everything but the coat is sleek/slimlined to fit. so awe inspiring ヾ( ˃ᴗ˂ )◞ • *✰
Tumblr media Tumblr media
3. dune (2021)
Tumblr media
I went to see in the dune on a whim- not thinking i would be a massive fan. A friend of mine had 2 for 1 cinema tickets and we thought wed go try dune. But oh my god this film- this film it made me feel so inspired, so in awe- . it is STUNNING- the cinematography- the soundtrack. The world building.
My favourite scene in the whole movie is when House atraides arrives on Arrakis. The soundtrack - the bagpipes and then the orchestra that comes in and hits you straight after gosh... It's so beautiful. May have cried a little seeing that scene for the first time- but they were tears of joy. Shivers down my spine. There is so much going on. How all the soldiers march - how the wind blows so heavily... how before the ship opens - the Duke atraides takes a hold of Lady Jessica's hand... so soft- so reassuring. Gurney reading a passage as the sand and dust blows- this scene gets me in the feels every time !!
youtube
Some of my fave costume design in this film would have to be for Jason Momoa's Character- Duncan Idaoh. (also this film was the first time i'd seen Jason Momoa without a beard WHAAAAT WOW!!) but like- the white shirt and trousers combo- how flowy the shirt is- the slight open colar- very romantic period drama vibes...BUT IN SPACE/SI-FI <3 ALSO HIS HAIR!!! HIS LONG HAIR- that he tied back. The shot on the right of him looking to the camera- taking his gloves of to fight- when I saw the film in the cinema I was screaming internally at how good thw shot looked. how pretty duncan looked- how the character is in focus- how there are layers of clothing- the still suit then layered with a scarf-shall. ugh iconic!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
other costume designs I enjoyed were Lady jessica's dress/ beaded veil. Also Duke Leto's armor. both costumes have a very art/sculptural feel to them. Also the duke's armor gave me BIG metal gear vibes.... maybe that's just because I know one day Oscar Isaac will play solid snake >:)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
4.star wars episode 2: attack of the clones (2002)
Tumblr media
yes the movie gets 100% shat on and ripped to part and memed to oblivion- but that's a reason i love it !! it's sooo cheesy- but such a comfort film.
Bunny, are you're feeling sad? go stick on attack of the clones and watch anakin flirt poorly with padme <3
the number of times my irl bestie @withoutyouimsaskia has heard me quote anakin... is TO MANY- i'll just say to her "i dont like sand" and she knows where im going (thank you for always being a meme with me!! ily!!!)
no but honestly- this film is so lovely! the romantic tension between anakin and padme- ugh gets me every time !!! The piece of soundtrack "across the stars" is one of my all time fave Orchestra pieces EVER-

The costume design for Padme - So stunning- that yellow/gold dress she wears on naboo(?) - it reminds me of a gustav klimt painting ! All of Padme's outfits are so beautiful!! The flowy gown she wears at the lake whe she and anakin share a kiss- oh the colours in it- and the fabric looks so floaty and soft... the metal emelishment on the neck and on the arms are a lovely touch! So romantic.. like a pre raphaelite painting

yes ANOTHER KEANU FILM- BUT HEAR ME OUT OK! THIS FILM IS SO- IT'S SO OF IT'S TIME BUT IT WORKS. iN THE WAY- in the way of- yes the cgi may be a bit off in areas in today's modern standards- but it works! the film is charming in that way. !!!
This is a film I only watched recently (within the last year) It was on uk netflix and I thought I would give it a go. I wish i'd tried it sooner because IT GOES SO HARD. (⸝⸝ᵕᴗᵕ⸝⸝)
fun fact: in my mid/late teens (uhh.. from 15 or 16 thru to 19??) I was a part of the superwholock fandom (...yes i know0 don;t look atME AAAA) but like- ugh this film this film!!! it made me remember all the joy supernatural gave me when I was younger!!! (may have gone back to watch some old spn faves bc of the film!!)
Tilda Swindon as the angel gabriel- ugh she she her HER!! the GENDER SHE GIVES ME. ʚ(。˃ ᵕ ˂ )ɞ
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I went into the film 100% blind- only knowing keanu was in the film. The happy suprise I got when I heard a perfect circle's "passive"! (FLASHING IMAGE TW FOR THE MUSIC VIDEO!!)
youtube
THE SCENE WHERE PASSIVE PLAYS IS SO - UGH- IT AWOKE A FEELING WITHIN ME- AN URGE TO WRITE- TO CREATE- IT WAS SO INSPIRING. The scene itself is what? 1 min long but it just- it made me feel. The lighting - the demons constantine sees- so much going on- the overall vibes- 100% amazing !!
youtube
the romantic tension between constantine and Isabel throughout the film and then... towards the end of the film- the "will they kiss- wont they kiss?!" eeek!!!
"I'm Constantine, John Constantine, asshole!" OH THAT LINE- UGH MY HEART MY HEART!! THAT WHOLE SCENE HAS ME BY THE COLLAR ITS SO COOL- Ugh the idea of trapping the demon in the mirror! and as i said at the start- yes the cgi might not to be today's standards but IT WORKS- it's gritty and it just it works SO WELL
youtube
UH THANK YOU FOR COMING TO MY TED TALK!!!!

Hey, just came across these posts so I have no idea how long ago you made them or if you’ve even thought about them since then, but I love your Earth-6260 stuff!!! Gay Peter/MJ is just….yes. And I love how utterly wet cat pathetic Peter looks in every image. Now, you mention Electro is a teen too? Any development with that?
Also, that one comic you drew of Harry screaming “I’m not like my father!” activated my whump brain and now all I can think of is this Harry becoming Green Goblin and then BOOM! Sadness.
oh my gosh tank you!!! earth 6260 kinda lives in the back of my head, due to spiderman being hyperfixation i kind of bounce back to sometimes instead of a special interest, so i havent really thought of it in awhile... but im honoured you love it!
i think wet cat pathetic peter is the best version of peter parker, and im kind of tired of no male/masc MJ so i mean. gotta do everything myself around here. speaking of the trio, while i do like the harry becomes green goblin after his father trope, i want to dig into the divide between norman and harry osborn -- norman is a terrible father bro give me a version of harry that HATES HIS DAD!!!!!! tired of the "i have to prove myself to my dad" bro shut the fuck up, go max his credit cards buying shit for your found family
to be honest i never really thought farther than "i think itd be fun to have electro as a teenager" because a lot of spidermans enemies are.... old men? for some reason? so i was like lmao wouldnt it be funny if it was like his classmate or something lol. more teenager trauma
if harry WAS to become green goblin, i think thatd do a lot of harm on that boy's psyche. he wants nothing to do with his dad, so if he were to become the next gobby? i dont know if therapy could fix that on god

flirt!ryujin~
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
warnings; swearing
genre; fluff
pairing; shin ryujin x fem!reader
word count; 1.1k
summary; ryujin comes into your diner and flusters you beyond belief
Tumblr media
it’s only your second week on the job, and you’re already bored as hell.
despite it being friday night and the diner was packed, your amateur skills kept you out of the interesting jobs, like serving at the bar or taking orders from families with screaming children.
the bell rang as you were cleaning tables. not even sparing the sound a glance, you continued your labor.
why did you take this job again? you couldn’t even remember. all this cleaning has brain-washed you and you can’t seem to think about anything else except this vile, hopeless, pathetic, rotten, crummy, abysmal, horrendous-
“hey babe”
whirling around, you come face-to-face with a blonde. you put on your “i love everyone!” face, smile, and say “how can i help you?”
but it comes out as more of a stutter, as her words register in your mind halfway through the sentence and being called babe really throws you off.
“how could you help me? well, i came here to have a burger but hopefully i’ll be having a date too,” the girl whispers, smirking.
oh dear.
first of all, why is this chick speaking to you like the old men that shuffle into the diner and call you gross names, and second of all, why is your heart fluttering? you thought your gay panic phase ended back in middle school.
apparently not, considering the fact that you were still standing there, speechless.
“r-right away,” you say, turning around and begin to set up the table you just cleaned.
pretending like nothing happened, you give her a menu and ask “are you here alone? or is there someone else accompanying you?”
“just me, although hopefully that’ll change by the end of the night,” the blond says, winking at you shamelessly.
“employees aren’t allowed to eat during their work hours,” you say as dry and unaffected as you can.
“i’m sure they can make an exception for such a gorgeous girl like you,” she whispers.
clearing your throat, you say, “can i get you anything to drink?”
“sweet tea, please.”
“i’ll get right on that!” your voice raises a few pitches and you dart towards the kitchen as fast as you can.
“with extra sugar please!” says the girl, her deep voice projecting over to you.
you reach the kitchen. fricking frack patty cake whack. what the diddly darn dangly doodle are you going to do now. 
you consider your options: flirting back would be the obvious answer, but you’re way too flustered to even attempt it. writing your number on the receipt- plausible, but cliché. doing nothing- unproductive, doesn’t help either of you. screaming in fear- hmmm no.
you decide to not make a decision at all, and go back to the table with the extra sugary tea. 
“thank you, it’s just how i wanted it- as sweet as your charming smile.” 
another wink.
brushing the compliment off and getting down to business, you ask, “are you ready to order, or do you need more time?”
“well, i was hoping i could have this burger right here,” the girl says, pointing to something on the menu.
leaning down over her shoulder, you look at the name she’s showing you. 
it’s called “the whapping whale”. (gosh who made up these names) 
“alright, one whapping whale coming right up!” you try to stand up, but a hand catches your jaw, turning your face.
brown eyes. a perfect nose. lips that are chapped but still look softer than pillows. a wisp of hair falling down into her left eye. you realize her mouth has started moving and snap back to reality.
she laughs and repeats herself, “can i have cheese with it as well?”
“of course,” you mutter, still shamelessly admiring her divine facial features.
“like what you see?” 
“yes.”
shit. why did you say that. mission abort. mission abort. leaning back again, you half-sprint back to the kitchen, catching a quirk of her lips as you turn.
you hide in the kitchen until the “whapping whale” is ready. why do you have to be so awkward. “one whapping whale coming right up” what were you thinking? are you some yeehaw cowboy? coming right up? who? what? where did that come from? do you have some primal instinct to say weird things? blergh.
and then? you said yes!? who even are you. why. why. this is going to haunt you forever. say hello to waking up at 1 a.m. and remembering this exact moment.
you grabbed the stupid whapping whale burger and went to go give it to that incredibly annoying and overly attractive girl.
“why the unhappy face babes?” the girl inquired softly once you reached her table.
“oh, i just burned by finger on one of the frying pans, but i’m fine, thanks for asking, would you like anything else, i can get you some more water, we also have a desert menu, and-” you quickly lied, rushing through six sentences at one time.
“slow down,” the girl laughs a little as she interrupts you,  “maybe i could kiss it better?”
“no thanks...”
the girl grabs your hands and examines them. stunned, you don’t pull away. 
“which one did you burn,” the girl says, a mischievous glint in her eye.
“fine, i didn’t burn my finger.”
the girl continues to hold you softly, now rubbing the side of your left hand with her thumb. you realize she’s waiting for you to continue.
you don’t exactly want to tell her every emotion you’ve been experiencing for the past 15 minutes, but you might as well go for it.
“well, first of all, you’re flustering me and making me stutter and feel awfully light-headed and confused, then you ordered that stupid whapping whale burger, which i managed to use in a sentence that was considerably yeehaw and cringy. now you’re sitting here holding my hands and are going to get me fired for fraternizing with customers and not doing my job. and i don’t even know your name!”
you stare at her. she processes your response.
“i won’t let them fire you. my exceptional wooing skills will persuade them not to.” she winks, “and besides, you won’t need a job if you’re going to spend all day with me tomorrow.”
another wink.
she continues, “my offer still stands to kiss you better still stands.”
a wink from the other eye.
“you’re going to fall asleep with all the winking you’re doing”
“not if i’m looking at a beauty like you.”
two more winks. the thumb caressing your hand doesn’t stop.
“you never told me your name,” you say.
“yours.”
a sigh from you.
“it’s ryujin,” she says with a giggle. 
you start laughing too.

Slashers W/ a Punk S/O
T/W- q*eer is used a few times- in a positive, self affirming kind of way. But I can add other trigger warnings if needed. :)
A/n- Literally no one asked for this, but I wanted to make more HCs like the soft pastel one...so I just went wild and made them. 
I included a little bit of punk culture into this as well, because it’s not just about the fashion, but since there’s such a vast variety within punk culture I mostly stuck with my experiences in the community, and some bits and pieces from documentaries(mostly live footage from “The Decline of Western Civilization”).
Characters: Billy/Stu, The Lost Boys, Norman Bates, Michael Myers
Will make one(s) for Brahms, Amanda, Helen or Daniel if asked
Billy Loomis + Stu Macher
so early 90s, the Riot Grrrl movement emerges
bands like Bikini Kill, Bratmobile, Heavens to Betsy or Sleater-Kinney
it’s a very female-powered oriented movement, but I notice that a lot of minorities tend to be drawn to this music and community (LGBT folks, people of color, etc).
both boys, and yourself, being outside of the norm and all (polyamorous relationship, gay/bi) are sort of drawn to it!
and sure there’s a lot of really great queercore/homocore bands, and there’s probably a good LGBT+ punk scene out there somewhere, but in a little town like Woodsboro? Hell no. Sticking with this fem punk movement, while again mostly a space for women in music- it’s the most accepted the three of you have felt outside of you’re relationship. 
you’ve always been pretty into the music, stuff like Dead Kennedys, Black Flag, or the short-lived Germs- but it wasn’t until you stumbled upon Riot Grrrl that you really got into it. 
the music, making zines about local-ish political issues(probably not so much Woodsboro stuff, more Cali in general and neighboring towns) and a few ones with queer themes and hand-drawn illustrations of your partners, and DIYing all your clothes
since you’re so experienced with DIYing your clothes and sewing on patches, you’ve helped repair the Ghostface costumes on numerous occasions. they kind of adore this(Stu is the only one that will- and does, frequently- admit that)
Let’s face it, the three of you do everything together- but you especially enjoy when Stu tags along for thrift dates. 
he’s the more fashionable one, and he makes the whole experience more enjoyable- cracking jokes and just being his all-around goofy self.
Woodsboro is a very little town, so they don’t have much...but they do have a few small stores- usually you’ll make a whole day/date out of it though. driving to the next town or so over, since they have more stores and a better selection, and spending hours looking for cheap, old t-shirts, belts, clothes with funky patterns. heading out for pizza after.
Billy’s more likely to get into the music and everything with you(he’s kinda,, angsty, no offense to him)- will definitely go to shows with you.
just- imagine Billy in ripped jeans. and he’d have like one or two patches sewn on to it- one of them is your all time favorite band, and the other is a band that he found on his own time, and actually really enjoyed.
Stu is dragged along with you guys, you can’t just leave him at home- he’s gonna feel left out and sad. :(
He’s mostly there to keep y’all company- he really likes the energy of the shows though!
the two of them are such a chaotic duo though, so much so that you have definitely been kicked out or banned from a few venues. all for varying reasons. good grief these men can not be tamed.
The Lost Boys
as we all know, these vampires are total punks. so they’re gonna appreciate having a s/o who’s also into that whole scene.
How you meet:
you’re a baby punk, and it’s your first show ever, and you look so nervous. you’re dressed up in pretty plain clothes, a single homemade patch for your favorite band barely hanging to your jacket side(you were mid-way sewing it, when you realized you were gonna be late if you didn’t leave asap).
it’s a few local bands, ones you’d never really heard of really. you look anxious. but when they start playing? you look so unapologetically yourself, you’re so in the moment dancing- it’s completely mesmerizing to the boys. the music isn’t even that good, but you seem to be having the time of your life.
they greet you after the show, and you’re a tiny bit flustered- cause gosh, heck, they saw you. dancing. so embarrassing. 
David is the one that introduces himself and the group, and initiates conversation. Dwayne’s a pretty quiet guy, so he just listens to what you have to say. 
Marko’s pretty excited about you, and initiates in some small conversation, he may have complimented your little patch(Marko- patch jacket KING, complimenting your jacket?? more likely than you’d think) 
and oh, oh- Paul is out there being a total chatty-cathy, and is absolutely bombarding you with questions. like, okay, Paul is pretty talkative, but the other vamps are a little worried that he’s scared you off. and you had seemed so cool :(
you end up pretty engaged in your convo with Paul though, even if all the attention is overwhelming. He ends up snagging a date for the five of you the following week.
once you start hanging out/dating:
y’all just hit it off so well those first few days. they all love how sweet & shy you are- but also how much of a badass punk babe you are.
Marko helps make your patch jacket(collecting ones for bands you enjoy, how to make your own, sewing them on, etc). you probably could have done it w/out his help, but my gosh- you weren’t going to pass up this opportunity. Marko gets really soft around you sometimes, since he doesn’t really do this activity with anyone else, it’s saved for you. 🥺🥺
Dwayne likes listening to you talking about the local scene(outside of the shows you go to- mostly about stuff he can’t attend, protests and meetings during the daylight.)
all of them(especially David) are very protective of you. I mean, generally. but also when you go to shows. they let you do whatever the heck you’re gonna do, but the mere second that someone even thinks about starting shit w/ you?? well, y’know. those vampire instincts kick in.
the four of them obviously share a lot of similar tastes in music- but they all have different favorite bands, & fave parts of the community. which, they can’t even fully participate in,, but it’s okay.
they, individually, introduce their favorite bands to you. and they get it in their head that oh, they said they liked it. they must like it as much as I do. and awkwardly coming out to the four of them, as they argue about your favorite band, “Well, actually- this *insert band they’ve never heard of or barely listen to* is my favorite.” and their just kinda like, oh, okay. please tell us more about them. 
so it’s sorta like,, you’ve been learning all this cool knowledge from them, now you get to share cool knowledge with them.
idk. I think it’s cute. 💕
Norman Bates
so first off- let’s just pretend Psycho was in at least the 70s/80s for a moment. because realistically- the punk subculture didn’t really exist back then.
baby boy is absolutely fascinated by the way you dress (mother is less thrilled though)
imagine your jacket is getting a bit weathered, and needs some repairs- so he helps you to sew edges closed, and make sure the patches aren’t on too loose, etc
he enjoys hearing your stories of all the past shows you’ve gone to. you always get so excited about them, and he finds that so endearing. But he pretty much leaves the actual punk scene to you because of these stories.
he was already worried from the stories, and made sure you were well prepared for any trouble every time you left for a show.
but one time, you were able to get him to join you. never again though. he was so nervous!
the music was too loud! and he could hardly understand what they were saying- it was so confusing!
you stayed with him most of the night, standing near the back, holding his hand. he’d gently bob his head to the music occasionally. 
but you accidentally found yourself swept into the crowd, but you looked so blissed-out in the moment, that he figured it would be okay for you to dance* over there for a little bit...right?  
*Norman is still unsure if you’d even call that dancing.
Thankfully, nothing bad happened in the mosh pit.
you gotta give him lots of attention and reassurance afterwards though- you almost scared Norman half to death D:
He’s happy enough helping you out and listening to you though- and that’s okay for you, too. you still love each other lots, even if this particular interest doesn’t overlap.
Michael Myers
he thinks you’re outfits are pretty interesting. 
he’s a little worried at first, when you start experimenting with putting things like safety pins in your ears. cause like- that’s not supposed to be in your ear, Y/n, what the fuck
if you make zines at all, Michael really enjoys watching you make the illustrations for them(not that he’ll admit to it though), and helps to find newspaper and magazine clippings to incorporate into the spreads.
you always show michael the final booklet before distributing it
he doesn’t talk a lot, so he doesn’t ask questions- but he often does the little head tilt once you give it to him. since he’s not very privy to current events, and a lot of your zines are political, you spend a lot of time explaining them in depth.
he has no use for any of this knowledge, but he listens on, intently.
Important note:
dear god do not bring this man to concerts and local shows with you.
it is a nightmare, to say the least
Michael is sort of,, emotionless sometimes, doesn’t really care for people at all, and if he does? definitely not in the same way most people do. 
so imagine combining that part of michael, the fact that he’s also a giant stabby man, with super loud, energetic- almost aggressive- sounding music and a bunch of strangers that aren’t respecting any personal boundaries. 
you need to keep him at the back of the venue- lest your local scene may go missing.
