ACT ONE: The Photoshoot, Part Three of Four
Tumblr media
prologue, part one, part two. warnings: tobacco, smoking, alcohol use, briefest mention of using alcohol as a coping mechanism, mentions of infidelity (as always), ada slander at times (sorry), texting for a while, leon's a bit of a perv,
author's note: btw I left the husband without a name so there's no overlap on you and your husband having the same name and you live in new york due to the modeling thing. I also try my hardest to keep the reader ambiguous because I realize that skinny, quirky, white girls aren't the only ones that read this series: if there's anything you'd like to recommend or change in the writing to be more reader-friendly, drop in my inbox and let me know! :) thank you guys so much for all the reblogs and 100 FOLLOWERS AHHH!! thank you thank you thank you!
Tumblr media
The warmth of your fingers working against his cool and paled skin had him melting like a runny ice cream cone in your hands. His hand was on your hip, rubbing loving circles like he was trying to commit the warm feel of your flesh into his memory. This was the type of life he envisioned when he was younger: married to someone he loved deeply with every crevice of his being. He thought Ada was the person for him, but that was such a costly and emotionally unbalanced guess. "Thank you, honey." You nod in response, applying the rest of the stitching to his busted lip. His hands dare to move a little higher on your hips, squeezing your waist and getting some sick pleasure out of the way your breath stopped in embarrassment. The scene was perfect, just a good ol’ friend taking care of her busted up pal. Leon hated that he couldn’t find you earlier, sooner, before he could even lay eyes on Ada Wong. She had her charms, sure, but there was something about the soft lull of your presence, how gentle you were, how caring you could be with others that had his heart fluttering in his chest. He still can't believe out of all the places he could've met you, it was at a store while you were buying a bottle of wine for yourself and your husband. "Met" would have to be an overrated word in his dictionary. The truth was that Leon had first laid eyes upon you in a magazine. They had released their February shoot that show-cased entrepreneurial photographers on the rise, climbing their way to the top without a care in the world who they scratched on their way there. You happened to be the diamond in the rough, making everyone else's cliche photographs of "lust" or "revenge" or "innocence" themes seem drab. Your theme? Limerence. Beautiful, simmering, and chilling limerence. Your hair was pieced together lazily but curled neatly, wearing simple yet cryptic tops and little boy shorts that lovingly cradled your ass. The rookie photographer that snapped your photos had done a stellar job at making it seem like you were one of those once in a lifetime girls you met in college. He still had the magazine of course, stashed away in the depths of his closet: kept in pristine condition like a filthy little secret he loved to indulge in. "So..." He muses. He feels the little pause in your work, his eyes crinkling with amusement. "How long have you known? About your husband's infidelity?" You've always known. The first? A college girl in the first year of your "official" relationship Bubbly and vibrant and a fucking joy to be around. The kind of girl you see on ABC's 20/20 or some other type of true crime prime-time film. Your husband claimed it was a drunk hook-up. And the first time, you believed him. The second? A school teacher that looked, acted, and talked exactly like you. Maybe she was your long lost twin or some weird rip in the fabric of time and she happened to pop out. He claimed he was mad at you for the way you did laundry. You forgave him a second time, but you'd surely have a knife to his throat the third time.
"A while. It's just like some weird fact I live with, I guess. Like you have some chronic disease and it's something you deal with from time to time." He nodded, bringing your hand up to his mouth and pressing a soft kiss to your palm. He knows you don't deserve that. Nobody deserves that. Yet, he always wondered why you stayed. Your husband was an asshole, although that shouldn't be a term that leaves his lips due to the fact he's supposedly your husband's best bud, but for the sake of doing the holy honor of defending you: he was a cheating dick that didn't deserve to be maritally bound to a woman such as yourself. "Wouldn't you get a divorce? I don't mean to be like...rude or anything but I would've thought that you're the type of woman to leave his ass once he cheats." And you were. Headstrong, confident, and self-assured—he's never seen an insecure model before, or maybe that's some weird stereotype he's made in his head unconsciously. "It's a tough situation." And that's all you have to say about your marriage. He nodded, understanding your reluctance to speak on the subject. He can't say he's any different from you either considering his marriage to Ada, the very reason he can't be with you. Especially so intimately. It’s hard. The safety of it all. Having someone next to you at all times despite the shitty relationship. He knew.
Now the bathroom is silent. You’re still doctoring up his wounds while he sits up on the marble counter-top. He really wants to say something until you step in for him.
“I can’t believe you fucked my husband up like that.” You say, pulling your hands away from his face to find some more antibiotic cream. He hates that he feels his head moving forward to get your hands back on him. Pathetic. He feels pathetic, especially considering he beat the dog shit out of your husband when you graciously invited him into your home.
“I’m sorry—“ He begins, you stop him once more.
“No. Don’t apologize. I was thanking you.” He nods again, finding the motion of moving his head back and forth too repetitive. “So, thank you.”
He boldly takes your hand in his own, squeezing it and kissing the palm—feeling like he’s turning into a crazy man when your fingertips brush against his lower eyelids and cheeks.
“You’re welcome.” He releases your hand from his own, feeling guilty for not saying more to you. He feels as if you deserve more than silence, and to be honest, with everything you've gone through this week, you definitely do. "I know I said it already but I'm sorry for saying that I wanted to—" He pauses, not wanting to be so crude with his wording but throwing caution to the wind as he had already fucked everything up so far. "Said that I wanted to fuck you, that's not fair to you nor your husband."
"It's okay if you do." His heart pulses in his chest at those words. He had expected you to ignore it, maybe slap him if you were really pissed. But you agreed? What the fuck, it's like he's living in a fucking alternate universe. "It's not a crime to find someone else attractive. The only thing wrong is if you act on it." That was true, but it never took from how much he dreamed about you. The times he's jerked himself off while thinking of your gorgeous body on his mind had grown to a disgusting amount. Hell, it's gotten to a point where he doesn't even fight it anymore and Ada being in the house used to stop him, but not anymore. He'll just go up to the bathroom and rub one out with your magazine in hand. "Then I guess I'm attracted to you." Your cheeks flush red at the admission, flaring a brighter color when his hand grips your hip once more. And tighter, too. Jesus Christ, the way this whole situation had been playing out like a steamy porno. First, your husband was gone in the hospital. Second, Leon was brought into your home. Alone. Third, he admitted he wants to fuck you. No, he has to resist. You were right. It's not wrong to be attracted to someone other than your spouse but you had him wanting to act. Wanting to drag you down to the marital bed you share with your husband and fuck you senseless. "So, do you want to stay the night tonight? Considering your car is broken down and everything." You ask, your tone beautiful and raspy like it always is.
Oh, God. He's gonna fuck you.

Fictober 2023 Day 11 - Prompt: "I'm not saying I didn't like it." Fandom: Baldur's Gate
There was a chill in the camp, but not from the wind—nor was it from the party’s recent encounter with Orin. Rather, it came directly from Falerin and Astarion, both facing away from each other and whispering sharply at each other. They’d been like that since they returned from the circus. No one had dared intervene.
“You’re being ridiculous,” Falerin said for what must have been the third time in as many hours.
“Well, apologies for not wanting every weakness I have laid out to a stranger,” Astarion hissed back. “Oh, and not just a stranger! Fucking Bhaal’s champion, who wants to paint the wall with our innards.”
“I didn’t know it was Orin,” Falerin snapped back. “None of us knew!” He huffed through his nose. “Look. I just wanted a break from this horror show we’ve been in, and I wanted to have a nice time at the circus with my friends and you.”
“A nice time? At the circus where we literally had just killed a homicidal clown and his pals?” Astarion whispered incredulously. “The blood was still drying on us!”
“Gods, you are being…” Falerin cut off his grumble, crossing his arms and turning farther away from the vampire.
“Oh? Oh, I’m being what, Falerin? Difficult? Impossible? Concerned for my wellbeing?”
Falerin took a deep breath, and his hand darted out behind him, grabbing Astarion’s. He squeezed it, shoulders still tense and obviously still upset, but he didn’t let go. Astarion looked down, brow furrowing.
“What are you doing?”
Falerin swallowed. “I read about it, in one of the books I skimmed through while we were out and about. It was about marriage troubles.”
“…you do know you can’t divorce me if we’re not married?”
The half-drow didn’t respond to that, shutting his eyes. “It said that…even when you fight, try to give some indication that it’s temporary.” He squeezed Astarion’s hand. “I’m really pissed off. With you, with me, with…fuck, everything. But I don’t want you thinking that I’m about to call things off because of it.”
Astarion stayed quiet, eyes fixed on Falerin’s hand wrapped around his. He let out a soft breath as he looked away.
“Why are you so upset?” he asked stiltingly. This wasn’t natural, not going on the defensive, but…well. Worth a try.
Falerin let his head fall into his free hand. “I’ve…worked so hard to find you. To get you to trust me enough to let me see who you really are, beneath all the flirting and quips and barbs. And I love you, Astarion. I was charmed by the person you wanted everyone to see, and I love the person you’ve finally, finally let me see beneath that.” He swallowed. “So reacting the way you did, being angry with me for showing that I do know you…it hurt. It felt like we’d undone everything we…everything I’ve done.”
Astarion listened quietly, and he let out a long sigh as he looked up overhead. After a moment, he turned his hand over, giving Falerin’s a squeeze. “I’m not saying I didn’t like it. I can’t remember the last person that really knew me, that wanted to know more about me than what they could find on the surface.” He glanced over at him. “It was going to be a waste of time regardless, but you could have given stupid answers. Fun answers. And believe me, I…I love that you care enough to know me as deeply as you do, but it’s dangerous to show that kind of openness in our situation. And…”
He trailed off. Falerin let the silence rest between them for a moment, then gently prompted, “And?”
Astarion stayed quiet. Finally, with an encouraging squeeze from Falerin, he took a deep breath. “I’m scared,” he whispered. “Not just of Orin, though that’s certainly part of why I’m so angry with you. But you’ve not only put a target on me; you’ve put one on yourself. Because now you can be used against me. By Orin and Gortash, by Cazador, by anyone.” He glanced back, finally meeting Falerin’s eyes. “I don’t want to lose you when I’ve just gotten used to having you.”
“You won’t,” Falerin said emphatically. “I’ll do everything in my power to make sure that you and I are safe. No tadpoles, no Cazador, no shapeshifters or Elder Brains or…goblin cults will stop us from getting a happy ending.” His mouth twitched. “Is this a bad time to ask if you wanted to move to Neverwinter with me when this is all over?”
A strained little laugh escaped Astarion. “I’ve always wanted to go.” He went quiet, staring down at his knees. “I’m going to need some time to cool down.”
“I know,” Falerin said softly. “I do, too.”
Astarion squeezed his hand. “But it’s temporary.” He glanced over his shoulder at him. “See you in the morning?”
“Bright and early.”
“With a kiss?”
“Only if you’re up for it.”
Astarion gave a little smile. “I do love you,” he said, finally drawing his hand away. “And how well you know me.” He hesitated as he got to his feet, then bent down to kiss Falerin’s head. “Sleep well, darling.”
With that, the chill in the camp dispersed, leaving just the warm crackling of the fire behind.

Yk what, I shall fancy you by asking about Idaho and Oregon. Tell me your head cannons about the two of them.
And I mean all of it.
Whether it's crazy, angsty, or something else, I. Don't. Care.
Give me passion for the specific things you love or give me nothing
Grabs you firmly by the shoulders. You have given me Power. STRAP IN FUCKERS!
I'll start with Oregon. Little warning now for weed nicotine alcohol and a small hunting mention i guess? Just in case <3
He's chill! He's cool, he's doing alright. In his own words "good, not great". He seems pretty tight with Washington, they're besties.
The West Coast really do scream "dysfunctional family dynamics" don't they?
(Aka, my three girlfriends West Coast boys, and yes, they smoke weed.)
Anyway, he's with Washington the most. That bit of them hanging out together alone while ignoring California's calls? Yeah, that's them all the time. Washington info dumps about tech and Oregon is a little book nerd who absorbs info (Powell's city of books) and it's a very good combo. They share local coffee shop and microbrew recs and go hiking they are!! Hiking bros!!! They are also couch locked high as fuck watching runbacks of 2004 Cartoon Network bros!!! That La Niña bond!!!
Definitely get very philosophical a lot in conversation, like Wash gets viscerally emotional over space stuff and cried over Spirit the rover being shut down (rip to the real ones i miss them all) and Oregon is like god yeah man human attachment to inanimate objects is so wild. They'll either talk about it for hours OR bounce between topics so stupidly fast they don't even remember why they're talking about what they are or how they got on the topic from where they started.
Sorry for talking abt them forever I just think they're best friends.
As I mentioned Oregon is a big book nerd, he likes nature, probably has a house plant problem (they are all named), he hikes, and HUNTS!
This mf bow hunts, drag this out of my cold hands. Gun too sure but BOW HUNT OREGON. Washington gets icked about blood and killing animals probably so Oregon goes alone. Or maybe with Alaska sometimes? I really love Alaska and the PNW getting along for some reason.
Or, he goes with Ida :)
Idaho is Built Ford Tough thats for fuckin sure, this man's a farmer. And he fishes. He unironically owns several dad joke fishing shirts and a women love me, fish fear me hat. I love him. He's pretty outgoing, he Wyoming and Montana are all fairly good pals, hunting buddies and football friends definitely. Sometimes Colorado is alright to hang with, mostly when Denver is a little quieter.
And in a similar fashion, he and Oregon will get into bitchy fights bc Oregon really is still centered around Portland. Married couple spats yk?
Honestly they're just like. Domestic? I guess? They'll go on weekend hunting trips, Idaho really likes to cook esp with game, Oregon likes to try and pair whatever they're eating with a beer if applicable. It's usually applicable, they're "it's past five pm so it's socially acceptable to have a beer now, right?" people. They definitely have a wicked sourdough starter. Oregon likes kombucha sometimes and Ida thinks it's a hell liquid. They go to fuckin Albertsons and bring back like eight things they didn't need.
I've got a hc I've mentioned somewhere before that the West Coast/PNW including Ida have horrific nicotine addictions, and that Ida goes straight for cigarettes or steals off Oregon, who vapes and has a Juul that they scratched their names into with a pin. They're like That couple.
Idk they're in a way like the country/city boy dynamic but also not? Like Oregon is a bit rough and tumble he isn't a pure city boy. And Ida is like not country per se, more game hunting fisher boy. But it's similar yk? A little bit
Their dates are CUTE, they got that weekend hunting trip, Idaho is land locked so Oregon takes him down the coast, or like to an obscure distillery for flight tasting. Otherwise they just do movie nights and nice dinners. Oregon has taken them hiking to a nice place to see stars and has re-info dumped information from Wash about the stars and stuff and Ida is like wow that's so neat, absolutely not looking at the stars he's looking at Oregon.
I could get into angst but maybe i save that for now since I'm talkin about them bein cute and happy and i want them to have that rn tbh

You have to marry the last fictional character in your camera roll: how screwed are you?
I was tag.ged by @scarefox and @bobafvcks <3 Thank you for including me, pals!!
Let's see who I get to marry! *drum roll sound*
Tumblr media
Oh.
Oh, this is terrible uskajsjajjshsjd
Don't get me wrong, please. I love Hira, I do, but we're bringing NOTHING to this relationship. We're the same person! Copy&Paste! Not even in a cute/epic soulmate way, just a very "we're doomed" situation.
We are both in need of someone to take us out of our comfort zones, to push us forward. But since we both would rather not even try, we'd probably sympathize and let each other be instead. We'd stay in the stagnant air (his words) for the rest of our lives.
Also! Our main love language is Acts of Service, but neither of us enjoy being in the receiving end of it 😀 Gifts are fine, we cherish gifts, but service makes us uncomfortable. We don't want anyone doing things for us, but we get lots of joy from doing things for other people, and we wouldn't be able to do that for each other! Because we would hate it! Can you imagine!!!!
The only pros I can think of are 1. We'd shop for clothes in the same stores—could probably share them too, since we have the same style; 2. No judgement—just two weirdos chilling with their photos and books; 3. He can look after himself—housecores wouldn't be my responsibility alone; 4. He's somewhere in the aroace spectrum too? And I'm not his type. So I believe our relationship would be more of a platonic one, which I would very much appreciate.
I think... I think we could be happy. Peaceful, definitely. But never fulfilled. Together we'd never live up to our full potentials, and it'd always feel like there is something missing.
But we could tolerate it for the sake of not being alone.
Tagging some pals! If you're interested, @srabaskerville @saturnskyline @agendratum @somebodycallixii @ronandhermy @leporschespam

💙 a ship that you like, but disliked at first
[from this ask meme]
Thank you for taking pity and not asking for more crack-ships lol (even though I now have another one to offer, what the fuck okay).
This one is...okay tbh I was half-afraid and half-hoping that somebody would ask this one, because you're probably not going to believe the answer given what's dominated like 80% of the posts and fics I've been making since LotR Feelings consumed my brain again a while back, but...
Legolas and Gimli.
Yeah no for real. See when I was a teenager, I didn't know what aromanticism or asexuality were; I just knew that I Was Not Interested in romance or sex at all very much no thank you NOPE. But back then I thought the only "options" for people were gay, straight, and bi. So I, and everyone who knew me, thought that I was either a "late bloomer" or just that whatever "toggle" puberty flips in most people's brains that makes them Become Interested In Other People Like That was broken in mine, and had not flipped. And I was, frankly, thrilled! Because I did not want it to ever "flip" no way no how no thank you. Being "broken" was awesome for me, actually.
But the terrifying thing about "broken" things is that broken things can sometimes be fixed. And I DID NOT WANT my broken toggle to ever repair itself. I liked being me, I liked the way I was! I did not want icky romance-sexy-stuff to eat my brain and turn me into something that I wasn't, and until I discovered that asexuality existed I lived in this sort of constant low-level dread that someday it might happen. Which was terrifying! Being broken was fine with me; potentially getting fixed was not.
(As soon as I discovered asexuality was A Thing the fear evaporated, which is just one more example of why Representation Matters y'all.)
Anyway, the side-effect of this was that I was VICIOUSLY defensive of any and every platonic fictional relationship or romance-free character ever written. They were "proof" to my scared brain that Not Everyone Gets Fixed; Not Everyone Falls In Love. Maybe You'll Stay Like This! Maybe You'll Be Okay! Maybe Your Entire Understanding Of Yourself As A Person Will Not Be Subsumed And Obliterated By Feelings You Do Not Want To Have!
(Now that I no longer need to fear that my own brain and hormones will someday betray me and turn me into a total stranger to myself, I'm way more chill about that sort of thing obviously.)
So while most of my fellow queers were learning to read between the lines, I was learning to keep my eyes very very tightly closed to even the most obvious not-stated-outright romances. Anytime somebody that I had decided Wasn't Like That fell in love, it was such a betrayal (even when the author had clearly been setting the romance up; you can't see what's set-up in front of you if you don't want to look at it!). Friends-to-lovers was basically my kryptonite.
And nobody outright SAID that sailing to elf-heaven in defiance of all the rules and expectations of all of history together with the "great love" of your life that you'd spent a whole trilogy being written as one-half of a pair with was coded as pretty damn romantic (and extremely queer) especially when every other survivor went off and got married...so that meant that they were not and could not be "together" like that nope no thank you never. Just gals dwarves and elves being pals. The end forever goodbye.
Mind you, even then I could see the obvious; I just spent a long time trying to pretend that I didn't. And poking nervously at those early slash-stories with them the way one might wiggle a loose tooth. Trying to see if it was okay. Trying to see if I was okay. Finding excuses why it was "okay" to like this story or that one, on an individual basis only, just as exceptions you understand! But obviously not shipping it. Obviously not approving of it. Obviously not agreeing it was real.
But eventually loose teeth fall out and the world goes on. And I realized that my brain wasn't going to betray and eat me, and my broken toggle was never going to flip, and I was going to be okay. And if I was going to be okay, then it was okay for some of these fictional characters to not be proxies for my own romance-free self, because I didn't need that anymore: I was safe, so their falling in love with somebody wasn't a betrayal of happily-loveless me.
After that it was pretty easy to come to terms with the fact that yeah: this ship sails itself all the way to Aman.

Happy Birthday the super sexy Scottish actress  Michelle Gomez.
Michelle was born as Michelle May Romney Marsham Antonia Gomez in Ayr in 1966, and grew up in Glasgow. Her dad is of Portuguese descent and is from  Montserrat, her mum ran a model agency’ She is one of four children; two older brothers, one of whom is called Derek, and a twin brother who died in.2004.
When she was seven, her parents took her to see Cole Porter’s musical take on the Shrew, Kiss Me, Kate at the Theatre Royal in Glasgow and she was mesmerised by the character Kate, she described it as
“ I was electrified and, of course, I thought they were talking to me. Even then I had an ego running riot. And I loved Kate’s energy, her fieriness. Even at that age, I identified; I thought: ‘Yup, I’m one of her, she’s one of me.”
Michelle attended Shawlands Academy and the junior section of The Scottish Academy of Music and Dance from the age of twelve before going to the adult Academy.
Her first major role was in Irvine Welsh's  Acid House , that’s my pal Gary McCormack with her in the first pic, she went on to make small screen appearances in The Bill and Taggart (two different roles in each) before the very funny and underrated Book Club on channel Four.
Other TV appearances have been in Rebus, Murder in Suburbia and Carrie & Barry before her big break as staff liaison officer Sue White in the Channel 4 comedy Green Wing.
For me Michelle’s best work has been as “Missy” in Dr Who, where she regularly steals scenes. Before the first female Doctor, she was the first female “Master”, one of the Doctors recurring arch enemies.
As well as her roles on this side of the Atlantic Michelle has appeared in Highlander: The Raven the American supernatural television series Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, featuring in all 36 episodes, the show got rave reviews but I have not watched it myself, not being a fan of the supernatural horror genre. It was cancelled in July 2020 due to the covid pandemic, I wouldn’t write off it being picked up again in the future, some sources are erroneously saying a series 5 is due soon. 
Michelle has been on our screens in The Flight Attendant, series based on the 2018 novel of the same name, it’s on HBO Max in the States, I must admit I’ve not got round to watching it as yet, the show was originally meant to be a mini-series, but a second series was commissioned and it was shown in April this year. It’s not known whether there will be a third series as yet.
Fans of Michelle and the Superhero genre will be pleased that they return to HBO Max in December.
No doubt we will also see her return to Dr Who someday, I certainly hope so. Gomez has been married to actor Jack Davenport since 1st May 2000 they have a son together. Of him she said 
“Jack wasn't my type at all. I thought he was too young and too posh and I told him that. Plus, I couldn't deal with his dodgy bowl-cut. But he wore me down”
Of herself Michelle is very modest one saying 
“Lots of actresses disappear by the time they're my age. So far, I've bucked the trend. I haven't got sucked into that 26-episode run of something like Casualty. Thankfully, my face has stopped that happening. It's not something you want to see every week on TV! I'm theatrical saffron in that way - just a light sprinkling of me here and there...”
Of her ambitions Michelle says it is to play Mama Rose in Gypsy on stage on Broadway. 
“That would be checking every box in my career if I got to play that. That is my biggest ambition! Oh my, I would ROCK THAT! I need to learn how to sing first, but that is just a technicality.”
Happy Birthday Michelle and good luck with getting on stage in Gypsy.

Which Thirdverse nextgens would like to be in relationships, and which would be happy being single, barring Sunny, Tiger, Earth and Cut?
Thank you so much for asking!! Even though most of the ng cast doesn’t have any love interests in the story, that doesn’t mean all of the “single” characters wish to stay single forever, and it’s really fun to think through what their takes on love would be. Which are the following:
Laffy Taffy totally does not (/sarcasm) have a crush on one of her classmates. Their name is Nightmare Night and I first introduced them in this status! She’s definitely in that hormonal middle school era where crushes come much more quickly, but overall she is interested in finding someone who’ll be more than a friend to her.
Galatea is extremely social and has lots of friends at school, and while she isn't anywhere near seriously thinking of relationships in this stage of her childhood, it's been suggested to me that maybe she be somewhere on the ace/aro spectrum. It would certainly break stereotypes regarding asexuality, as my more recent work is known for, so I'm thinking about it as a possibility!
I like the idea of Blackberry Maple preferring a single life. He’s not asexual or anything, he just has a very wide network of friends and couldn’t see himself choosing one to spend the rest of his life with or choosing one location to settle down in forever. The Apple family farm is his home base, but he sees that as different from choosing a partner himself. His lifestyle is just not compatible with a steady monogamous partner.
I’m also toying with the idea of having Orchard Sunrise be not particularly interested in relationships, because getting married would mean losing her disability benefits /JOKE Though she does genuinely value her independence and knows that “who’s going to take care of you?” isn’t a good reason to look for a partner. She can get her caretaking requirements and companionship needs met through her other relationships. If there’s any interest at all, it would be an “if it happens it happens, if it doesn’t it doesn’t” attitude about romance and a complete lack of desire for children.
The real reason I’m thinking of this is because it would be funny as hell for Applejack’s dreams of having a child-in-law and grandchildren to rest on her most cringefail child because her two more competent children aren’t interested. I can definitely see Fireside Jam failing his way through a few relationships and learning some hard lessons before he settles down, but it is something he wants to do.
Bismuth Sun just gives me the vibe of someone who would want a partner. She puts in effort to prioritize her family even with her busy and stressful schedule because of how much she adores them, and she would be the same way with a romantic partner.
Outside gossipers wouldn’t think this to be very likely because of how they perceive their attitude, but Celestial Blessing would like to settle down with a lover someday too. Maybe even produce an heir to pass their knowledge on to. Of course they’re secure in themselves and devoted to their work so finding romance isn’t at the very top of their priority list; it’s not something they desperately seek out. But they would like it to happen eventually and hopefully not have to wait 15+ years to even start dating.
I like to think Evergreen Blaze has had a girlfriend at some point in his life, probably a fellow Wonderbolt or somepony who’s Wonderbolt-adjacent. I don’t imagine such a relationship being toxic per se, but Evergreen wouldn’t find it very fulfilling and he’s too emotionally stunted right now to admit to himself that he would much rather date a stallion.
Moonray Chill is one of those “straight” girls who just hasn’t found a boy she likes yet but is very close with her female friends! She enjoys going to sleepovers where they practice kissing boys on each other, cuddle in the same sleeping bags together, and (in the human au) admire each other’s bras. Just gal pal things! “Mom, what do you mean you’ve never done that with any girl friends?” She’s just an oblivious girl overall and that includes being oblivious to why she isn’t all that interested in boys.
Lantern is in a stage of life where they still feel like a child in many ways, so as of now they aren't thinking about relationships that much when they're still struggling to figure out who they even are. I like to think there are a few passing celebrity fancies, but even then it's a struggle of, "do I want them or do I want to BE them?" One day they'll figure it out, once they feel like they have more agency over the rest of their life.
Strawberry Breeze grows up into a proud bisexual mare whose standard for a partner is “whoever proves worthy.” It’d a high standard for someone with as big a personality as hers, but she’d say it’s perfectly achievable.
Daisy Wasp seems like she would be very selective with partnerships. If she had a partner during the main story, at age 15-ish (I don't plan for her to, just hypothetically), I think she would struggle because of all the time she volunteers as a peer conflict mediator. She wouldn't have much emotional energy left to commit herself to a lover's wants and needs. If she waited and got a partner when she's older, after she's sorted through the issues of her main arc, it would go better. Still, she would take her time to choose someone who also has good coping skills and boundaries so they can support each other through the highs and lows without being emotionally over-taxed.
You know those jokes about people who have never been in a relationship but still know a lot about how they should be (and how they should NOT be) from hearing all of their friends' stories about their relationships? Daisy Wasp is like that.
Fairyfly seems like the type who would think he should have a partner and an heir one day (despite being the lowest ranked of changeling royalty lol) because changelings are a species of love and he thinks it would be expected of him. Even though King Thorax and next-in-line Ocellus are both single, as far as I have planned rn. He has plenty of time to figure out what he actually wants beyond what (he thinks) is expected of him.

Sorry that this one's gonna be long but I need to empty out all the shit I've been thinking abt the clumps
1. I love how this is slowly becoming like sesame street (especially tertiary trio) with how they're all neighbors and how soft ur art looks it feels like that sesame street nostalgia
2. You've established that dandy thinks of blue as a maternal figure, is red guy like dandy's chill chain-smoker uncle that teaches them to shoot guns and only ever sees him at family reunions
3. Puppet thanksgiving where red and cardinal roast duck and use him as the turkey
4. "Fluffybird" dynamics in each clump
Blue&Cardinal: My wife is sof an I lub her <33
Red guy&Duck: Ew ur gross I hate you so much make out w me right now
Dandy&Jay: They're my homeboy they're my pal, they're my sweet cheese, my rotten soldier, my good time boy
ALL CORRECT
1. I didn't even know my art had that feel of sesame street nostalgia, i never really watched sesame street but it makes me so happy regardless 😭 i will definitely draw them all interacting more
2.dandy looks up to both yarn guys the same way so perhaps. I think red leans a little more to the akward side though
3. Funny horrible image beamed into my head. Red and Cardinal would get along though.
4.spot on! To add on funnily enough cardinal and blue just thought they were just girlbestfriends for a really long time until they actually got married. red and duck i think those two have stupid massive communication issues, dandy and jay are bestfriends!!!

1-5 and 15-20 for the admitting stuff asks
Haa omg!! Thanks pal!! xox
Would you have sex with the last person you text messaged?
Absolutely not because it was my kid!!!
2. You talked to an ex today, correct?
Not today, no but I do have a couple of exes I keep in touch with and talk to fairly regularly (oddly enough both are guys I didn't really realize I was dating? But they both refer to *me* as their ex so I guess they're my exes?).
3. Have you taken someones virginity?
That would be a yes.
4. Is trust a big issue for you?
Yeah, that's probably still the case. Less so than before I had 8 billion years of therapy though!
5. Did you hang out with the person you like recently?
Sure did, pal, because we're married!
Are you going out with the last person you kissed?
Does being married to them count? Because I did marry the last person I kissed in a romantic way!
16. Do you think you’ll change in the next 3 months?
I mean, in the way that I try to keep working on myself and improving and all that, sure, though it's probably more incremental than BIG changes these days. I am hoping to get back to work full-time which I have a feeling is going to change a LOT of things for me!
17. Who do you feel most comfortable talking to about anything?
Ooof. I mean. I have stuff I don't talk about with anyone, which is maybe not good, but I do talk to my therapist a lot. I talk to my husband a lot. I talk to @julcheninred and my Fat Bird chat and @helloamhere <- those are the folks I actually probably talk to the absolute most, and most honestly.
18. The last time you felt broken?
Ooo again. I mean, I tend to feel broken most of the time? But in a like, whatever it's all chill sort of way, if that makes any sense? I have a stupid brain that likes to be anxious and sad and so, so mean to me, and tries to kill me on a fairly regular basis and like. I literally just said to my therapist, that I've just kind of stopped... paying too much attention to how I feel about stuff because if therapy/meds/self-work could have fixed it? It would have been fixed by now. So instead, I have been really focusing on what I want to HAVE done, and just... trying to do that!
19. Have you had sex today?
Not yet but the day ain't over so who knows!
20. Are you starting to realize anything?
It generally takes me many go-rounds to get stuff, so I'm not sure i'm realizing NEW things, but revisiting old ones, for sure.

OMG YOU SELFSHIP WITH EMILY FROM CORPSE BRIDE???? TELL ME EVERYTHING I LOVE HER!!
-aggressively-selfship
Awww hey Echo!! Thank you very much for asking!! :DD @arcadeselfships (cause I think you’ll like this :)
So you know Emily's story, right? A bride that ran from home and was poison to death by some greedy dickhead that only wanted her money?
Well, I just ended up in a wrong place wrong time scenario. A hit and run, really. POV killed by a hearse 😔😔😔😔
And I wake up in the world of the dead, am ushered into Bonejangles bar, and am sat down as the tell the tale of the Corpse Bride through song. Between her ghoulish yet gorgeous appearance, and soft yet sad voice I'm pretty much immediately drawn to her jggdjgdj I take whatever concoction I've been handed by the bar tender in one hand and try not go fidget with the other.
I start with complimenting her haunting voice and beautiful dress and soon enough we're just chatting idly. She ends giving me the rundown of the afterlife and asking if I'd like to be her roomate :) Really we just hit it off well from the get go.
Things remain that way for awhile. Just two gals being pals. One smitten and hopeful, the other focused and poised to achieve her goals. There's little things here and there like asking her about her attraction or accidental touches but nothing really concrete. It's nice even if it's not everything we could have. I decide to not push the idea considering Emily's past. I'm fine without telling her....well, until Victor shows up.
For us his arrival happens on a night just like any other. We're on our weekly trip to the bar. I'm chatting with Bonejangles and the band on and off and she's singing along to every song they play <3 When suddenly, she feels the tug of the those words that have kept her held down for so long ringing in her bones. She doesn't explain to anyone, just rushes to the human realm to meet him in person. I manage to catch her leaving but I still don't know why she's done it so I chill at the bar until she shows again.
It takes allll day but she finally does come back! With some guy? WAIT MARRIED WHAT?? She's so excited, all smiles and heart eyes and I'm just trying to keep my cool but SO many questions are going through my head as I greet him and them watch the band start up their shebang.
I kinda pout in the corner for most of the song but still end up watching her with little hearts dancing in my eyes anyways <3 When she’s done the situation FINALLY gets explained to me......and I’m less than thrilled. Victor is over saying how she’s dead but I’m just saying that he doesn’t seem interested and doesn’t even know her?? Like is she really sure that’s what she wants? She uhhh, is mad at my judgy attitude(it’s a mix of jealousy and concern but fair kjgdsj) but yeeeeahhhh
The movie continues on mostly as normal but with the added mix of our dynamic, the implication of jealousy, and lots of musical numbers! X3 Somewhere part way through, Victor admits that he doesn’t like here and wants help getting out. I tell him to tel her about it and not involve me. After all, HE’S the one she likes....(Despite his distress that’s when he actually picks up on her feelings) He also goes for that angle and despite her flushed face she reiterates her point and walks off. *Crush lament song here*
Things don’t change all that much until we hit the wedding/climax of the movie. Up to that point I’d been holding it, maybe hinting at it, Victor was even trying to point me out just to hopefully break things off better, but now it’s come to that one phrase that every unrequited lover fears:
“Should anyone present know of any reason that this couple should not be joined in holy matrimony, speak now or forever hold your peace.....”
Just as I’m about to get up and SAY SOMETHING(like, I’ve just stood up) THAT MOTHERFUCKER BARKIS SPEAKS HIS PIECE >:(((( 
As much as I want to fight that guy, I let Emily handle it cause it’s her arch and she’s sOOO badass in that part <3 Like god she DESERVES IT!! And while the town is fucking EVISCERATING Barkis, Victor and Emily finally decide to set things right about the wedding and THEN I CONFESSS (Victor actually wingmans by urging me to speak despite it’s his wedding ksgsdbg <3 )
And so her soul is freed from her realization but she stays with me in the Afterlife. We have a town wide wedding in the next few days. (As excited as we both were, we all needed a break) Victor and Victoria are at the wedding too! Bonejangles and the band plays the music, the after party is at the bar, and the aesthetic is BANGING!!
Happily Ever After in the Underworld <3333

idk much about outlast but ooo tell me some headcanons about ummmm. idk. just in general. im curious.
HEADCANONS!!!
Tumblr media
anywaysssss just doing character headcanons right now. peace and love.
blake my best friend blake.... hes my scrungly my meow meow hes just like me. amab he/they bisexual with ptsd and schizophrenia.. just like me fr. when he leaves the village he ends up with nerve damage. two bone and skin grafts and a bunch of really deep gashes n cuts. he never bandaged his wounds well enough while he was looking for lynn so they take a long time to heal bc hes constantly doing things. when lynn and him get back to society they immediately go to a hospital and are both threated. they decide to name their new daughter jessica. aough. oeusur. oæufhg. ahem. anyway
miles upshur... my bestie miles i love him. him and walrider end up in a kind of symbiotic relationship and feed off of each other. miles gets his strength back pretty quickly upon leaving mount massive but hes also legally dead so he cant do a lot once he's out. would definitely watch baseball or hockey i think. he ends up meeting waylon once the info on murkoff corp goes public and he ends up as a sort of uncle to waylons boys. he lets them watch saw Way before they're supposed to
WAYLON my bud my friend my pal waylon park. he's korean american. definitely older than miles i think bc hes married n shit. hes a good dad n stays really strong through his recovery after mount massive. still going through a lot but hes better. developed hallucinagenic induced psychosis (hppd specifically) after given drugs to make the effects of the morphogenic engine more prominent. he also had to have one of his legs amputated because he shattered his ankle. he rlly likes miles but hes not really good with kids. hes chill n all but not good a raising them really. they stay in touch so miles can testify against murkoff in court once the video file is released to the public
ty..... i love love love being able to say things.. im gonna get a good grade in headcanon which is possible to achieve and reasonable to want. <3

be that as it May
hellooo, friends foes and strangers alike! using this title for a tumblr post for second time running and i'm actually early by one day (it's May 30th, so yep) genuinely proud of myself :) hahahaha
well, this post i think it's gonna be a monthly-journal-and-a-serious-note one... a word vomit guaranteed, so apologies in advance and bear with me. May was yet another rollercoaster but in another context i can't disclose yet (and not sure when i can let the secret out in the open or confirm/deny the rumors lol but for 2nd time: it’s not me getting engaged ok 🤣 i don’t even have anyone in mind) but yeah the highlight: not getting coldplay Jakarta ticket.
i'm so damn livid at so many things like 😭😭😭😭😭 first of all the scalpers deliberately buying the tickets just so they can resell it in exorbitant prices, the FOMO crowd for taking my spot as an actual coldplay fan (though i'm not nearly as mad as i am at the scalpers because well, they just want to see the band that i also happen to love), and the coldplay management team for planning a stupid Asia/Oceania leg tour route that doesn't make sense (who the hell decided to go for only a day at Jakarta then straight to Perth which is miles away and then back to Malaysia?)
anyways i'm counting on people suddenly having other events or important business to attend to so there will be tickets i can buy secondhand. not going to appease scalpers by panic buying i want to see them suffer a huge loss and will be rendered to resort selling it half price on d-day or something. i feel like i deserve the tickets so bad the concert day is literally eleven days before my birthday in November 😭 i know i can make it happen i WILL see my band like i did last time!!! 😤
the remainder of May is just me working on the project, preparing stuffs and literally running all over Jakarta to get things done, me overthinking, nothing new (read: clowning as always) not trying to be cryptic but just like coldplay said in Speed of Sound: "every chance that you get is the chance you seize." wish me luck, pals!
my Brisbane based cousin who's going to get married in August sent us the fabric needed to make the outfit for the special day and i'm getting even more hyped up!!! it's not me who's going to say my vows and tie my life to the other half of my soul but i'm super happy. can't wait for Bandung trip 2.0 yippeee
okay here we're entering the serious note territory... for once, for so long, i'm letting myself to just let go of the words. kinda sure some of you have probably caught on, or thought i'm a daft dimbo for this but yes: it's about him. on May 25th, two years ago i spoke to him for the very last time. full reassurance from my part to say that no, it's not about me not being able to move on or blah blah blah, it's quite the opposite actually.
writing this down, on here, feels like some sort of purge. it's not in a bad way either, i am glad i can finally talk about it openly, with no sense of remorse or regret or hatred or resentment. right now, after two years of as much space and time given to think and process it through, remembering him and the days that build the very core of memories i still keep in my mind feels like rereading my favorite book.
it's like me and him are just some other characters that i cheer and cherish for, i long and support and yearn for, and the story ends with a nice closure chapter. a complete book. to me personally, it's like reading Harry Potter. such a huge part of my life, yet i'm no longer there.
i no longer stutter or taken aback or get the chills whenever something in the present pulls me back into a particular memory of him. i embrace it with open arms and with a smile on my face. i reread my last letter to him and actually edited it (my editor self is just, you know, being an editor) i'm as unabashed and unbothered to open my old chats with him (i kinda cheated oops sorry if you read this lmao i just never feel the need to delete the chats because let's be fr i don't need to reread it, i still can recall what we talked about just from memory. that's me and my insanely biased brain, ha!) and actually laugh and cringe (mostly on my part, because it was so clear i tried to catch his attention by doing literally everything omg i was so embarrasing 🤣😭😂) (also for disclaimer, i never opened our chatrooms, not until this month, so i also kinda kept my part of the agreement) but it's fun nonetheless. nothing that happened between us will ever tarnish or alter the fact that i was genuinely happy and the joy filled memories will always be there.
it's a bit hilarious how my 'strategy' is to avoid him like a plague. left zero gap for any chance to even get a glimpse of him or his life. basically two years of absolutely nothing of him (except for some weird twist like how his mum and my mum are still members of the same whatsapp group, though they don't interact much) in a glance it does seem like i'm trying to run away from reality, but i swear it's just my way of dealing with problem at hand, since i suppose fourteen years worth of feelings can't be extinguished in a lazy attempt with feeble manner. yet that doesn't mean i'm gonna play pretend and fake an amnesia, i still think about him sometimes. i guess it's just part of being human, with weaknesses and all.
you've probably wondered, yes: i still do love him with all my heart. just in a different way, and for sure, from far away. see what i'm talking about? he's just like an endearing fictional character you have grown to love and will always be with you (yes i'm a huge Potterhead lol) it's platonic, sometimes familial love, just constantly running in the background. i always do that to the people i regard highly in my life, so again, nothing new.
i still count him as one of my selected few best friends though imprudent and tactless he can be because he sometimes is also the voice of reason to my farfetched always anxious self (also because he knows too much of my secrets thanks to me being biased and a pathological overshare-r) if God ever made destiny to make another funny turn, i would've liked us to be an actual, functional, supportive friends. long live the friends!
Nietzsche is right about without forgetting it's quite impossible to live at all, but i digress. if you’ve watched Eternal Sunshine of Spotless Mind, you’ll know what i’m talking about; i guess at some point things just don't have any explanation (yet) of why it happens ever so, you just carry on with it. archiving it somewhere in a vault.
so. even though i know he will never read this... hey you, i just want to say i'm so grateful to have you as friend, though things don't always go smoothly. honored to have been graced by your presence in my life, though just for a limited time as it is. i hope you're always happy, healthy, and loved!
phew, i got super emotional. maybe because it's been two years, i can't believe i managed to stand for what is right this long! (and will continue to do so) i am here from all the things i've gone through :) yet another coldplay quote because i just love this band so much, and i think this song is my song. please read the lyrics as you listen to it, best feeling ever.
it's cathartic, a form of healing, alleviating, to put these, all my feelings, out in the open. this is what i live with and it is my life. i'm content with how everything is going and i think it's all settled now, all good. now full throttle focusing on the project, if things go my way, i'll tell you guys all about it on my July post. see you then! 💙

Watching episode 2x21 of How I Met Your Mother, where everything starts to get unfathomably fucked up during the day-of preparation of Lily and Marshall's wedding, and, when I first watched it, I thought it was hilarious exaggeration for the sake of comedy.
It's not. This is how the day of works, but it goes even worse.
Off the top of my head, these are the massive problems that happened. I had 10 people no-call no-show who had originally RSVP'd yes, the old school fire truck that was meant to be the centerpiece of the wedding pictures got vandalized two weeks before the ceremony and STILL isn't back at the venue, it rained the day of after weeks of clear sky forecasts, my mom forgot my dad's fire helmet so she was gone for the last 3 hours before the ceremony started, one of the groomsmen and the best man bailed within a week of the wedding, somebody forgot to bring the table place cards and couldn't find them when I told them exactly where they were, my photographer cancelled and sent his assistant and gave me less than a week's notice, my maid of honor kept forgetting the music cues, one of my bridesmaid's bailed ten minutes into the dinner after throwing up three times before and after the ceremony, and my sister and her family (aka a groomsman, bridesmaid, junior bridesmaid, ring bearer, and flower girl) all took off the second dinner was done and didn't wait until the special Auntie Sara/Nieces dance. Oh, and the replacement photographer was terrible at his job, so, three weeks later, when I got the pictures back, they were worse than the shots we'd take on our 2009 Nokia digital cameras during pitch black sleepovers.
Edit: Also, my cousin announced her pregnancy to our extended family at the wedding. That's like the biggest wedding guest sin in history.
It was amazing and J and I got married and had the perfect moments we'd dreamed of, but the big parts of it profoundly tanked. You can't account for other people being disappointments.
So yeah. No matter how carefully and meticulously planned your wedding is, everything will go hideously wrong in ways that will break your heart. If I can recommend anything, hold a small ceremony and informal party, or elope. Don't do the big wedding, even if the big wedding doesn't feel big because it's under 70 people. It's still big. The planning is big and the chaos is big and, thus, the problems are ginormouse.
tl;dr, no matter how exaggerated you think sitcom wedding issues are, they don't compare to the chaos of real life.

Okay I'm bored af so...
Blaise and Theo headcanons!!!!! (+some other slytherins because why not)
Blaise is transmasc
This one is accidentally canon because some translations of the books use she/her pronouns for him until book six where they use he/him
He started transitioning when his transphobic step-father was murdered by his mother died in sixth year
He also has anxiety
Like "can barely function in class cos if the teacher asks him a question he freezes" anxiety
Yes I'm self inserting
Theo on the other hand is like if a griffinpuff was sorted into slytherin
Like he is the most energetic and talkitive person ever
Also him and Daphne have adhd. Fight me.
He's the kind of person who is friends with every one so when he realizes that he isn't friends with the scary quiet kid (aka blaise) he makes it his goal in seconed year to be make him his new bff
Blaise is just confused as to way this over hyped, energetic gremlin is following him everywhere and won't stop talking
But then in class theo noticed Blaise fidgeting in his sit
That's when Blaise finally tells someone about his anxiety and about how even when he wants to ask a question in class he can't
Theo offers to ask it for him. He continued to do so until their last day in school
Theo was Blaise's first friend ever and he has no fucking clue how friends work
Theo has had a lot of friends before Blaise but Blaise is still his favorite
Their vibe is "tried anxious introvert" and "supper energetic and bubbly extrovert" but also they're both sassy af
Honestly all slytherins are sassy
Theo is "MCDONALDS MCDONALDS MCDONALDS" and everyone knows it
Everyone (including Blaise) think Blaise is *orders one black coffee* but he's actually "we have food at home"
Draco is *orders one black coffee*
Crabbe is *goes to burger king out of spite*
Goyle is *lets them get ice cream and that's it*
Pansy is *orders three black coffees*
Daphne is "we have food at home" *ends up ordering mcdonalds from home*
Millicent Bulstrode is *goes to wendys out of spite*
Tracey Davis is *goes to mcdonalds for the happy meals* *leaves cos they weren't giving out toys*
Theo is a raging pansexual like me and has had a crush on half the students in his year
He also flirts with everyone
That is until the yule ball when he asked Blaise to go with him "as friends" and since he didn't want to deal with asking anyone and cos he had a crush on Theo, Blaise agreed
But then he saw a friend of his asshole step-father and he didn't want him to know he was going with a boy so he asked Theo if they can leave
The ended up talking all night in their dorm room
Then they kissed
Blaise was all like oh my god oh my god I can't believe I did that oh shit what do I do hshjsjs-
And meanwhile Theo is just like *heart eyes* fuck~
They started dating in secret cos Blaise doesn't want his step father to find out
But Theo sucks at the "fake dating" thing
Theo: *holds Blaise's hand*
Daphne: *raises eyebrow*
Theo: this is platonic hand holding
Theo: *kisses Blaise*
Draco: since when were yo two-
Theo: no homo
Everyone in slytherin house knows but Theo asked them to pretened like they don't
Also they're all to gay to care
Millicent and Tracey are THE butch x butch ship and by god are they in love
Tracey got a buzz cut in sixth year and Millicent was just to gay to function for a week
Crabbe and Goyle have been practically married since first year and they are the most chill couple ever
Draco is aro and demihet
He and Pansy have a friends with benefits thing for a while but they later on stick to just being pals
Are Pansy and Daphne straight? Yes. Are they the best allys ever and would shove their 10inch heal into a homophobe's eye? Also yes.
Theo and Daphne are both the mom friends
But like Daphne is the mom friend who will force you to do your homework and will make you a schedule for the month to make sure you're on top of things
While Theo is the mom friend that'll force feed you and would sit on you if it got you to go to sleep
You may think that's a joke but in sixth year Theo actually started forcing Draco into bed and sitting on him because "damn it Draco you will actually die if you don't sleep three days in a row"
Mind you Theo once didn't sleep for a week, but that's not the point!!
Tracey and Goyle are both stoners and Millicent and Crabb love their stoner s/o
Theo has stolen everyones clothes at some point
Theo: *walks into class with Draco's shirt*
Draco: ...the fuck?
Theo: *is wearing Millicent's hoodie*
Millicent: that bitch
Theo: *is wearing Pansy's skirt that's been missing for two month
Pansy: Theodore Nott you better not be wearing my missing skirt right now!!!
Theo will wear anything because clothes are unisex and also gender is a social construct
The day Theo wore Daphne's croptop was the day Blaise realized he was fucked
All the slytherins took a while to actually respect muggles and muggle borns (cos like, they were raised to think that the two of them were the scum of the earth, and even though it is on them to become better people, they still need to get rid of beliefes they had since childhood and that can be hard) but once they did they got really into muggle inventions
Especially Pansy
Like she fell in love with energy drinks
Like really in love
Like oh my god Pansy you already had three redbulls today STOP
I'm self inserting into Pansy ig
At fifth year Theo draged Blaise to a mind healer cos his anxiety was getting worst and that's how he started getting medicated
Fifth year had became Blaise's best year and he got some of the best owls scores that year
He also felt so much better
Theo was thrilled to see him this happy
Tracey and Millicent were the first to get married
Pansy and Theo wore matching dresses and to this day they still argue over who wore it better
The answer is Draco, who tried on Theo's dress a few months later
Daphne is actually super ticklish but no one knows
And by no one I mean everyone
Years after their time at Hogwarts they still meet up at least once a month with everyone else in their year
These meetups were also how they realized that Draco is the only slytherin who can play quiddich
Like most of them spend their days in their room with the lights off and Draco... is also like that but sometimes he goes out side
Draco is the slytherin chad
I'm so sorry
No slytherin knows how to cook (cos they all had house-elves) so the rest of Hogwarts taught them how after the war
Theo is a himbo
I'm not sorry
I just realized that my version of Blaise/Theo in basically Glinda/Elphaba and I love that so much
This post is a mess
I'm so sorry
No I'm not

Sometimes I feel LGBTQ+ youth now a days takes LGBTQ+ representation for granted.
Bad grammar most likely cause this is a very emotional teary most likely crying venty post for me!
I'm gonna say it I grew up with no lgbtq+ representation at all... Now you maybe going
" so you're like waaaay old then!"
No. I'm 22 years old.
I grew up feeling alone, unseen and unrepresented. I felt bad about myself and there was no main media or idols that told me that I was normal. The only true rep I had at the time was Bugs bunny, Daffy duck and Gonzo.
then things started changing.
We saw more LGBT and it made me so happy knowing LGBTQ+ kids wouldn't feel the way I felt.
Then even more representation started happening! Something I thought I'd never see in my life time. Something people told me that I'd never see!
Celebrates were coming out and acknowledging LGBTQ+.
Youtubers were acknowledging us, coming out and there was Lgbtq+ content on youtube!
I'm gonna say it when I first heard thomas sanders say " Hey my guys, gals and nonbinary pals."
I cried hard with joy.
When I see queer representation I still cry because it fills me with joy knowing that kids will never feel the way I felt.
Then I noticed it..
LGBTQ+ youth taking for granted what I and many of us older LGBTQ+ always wanted.
For example the LGBTQ+ youth shredded the show SU for having sapphire in a tux and ruby in a dress at their wedding cause " it was erasing fem representation "
The Arthur episode were Mr.ratburn gets married got shamed because " There wasn't enough representation, their both twinks. "
Bugs bunny's unapologetic cross dressing was shamed.
Daffy duck was shamed for " promoting twink and queer sterotyoes "
The show she-ra was ripped apart for every reason up, down and every which way.
Gonzo got hate for not going by a label, calling himself a whatever and an artist.
Even in real life LGBTQ+ people get so much flack FOR DUMB REASONS. Some examples are:
Thomas Sanders was been repeatedly accused of " false activism " because " there are more labels then just nonbinary."
Fergie was despite being a bisexual woman was told she " fetishized " Queer relationships by being unashamed of talking about how much she likes doing it with women..
Lady gaga was shamed repeatedly for " using her identity for clout "
People said Elliot page isn't representing trans men well enough...
Even LGBTQ+ figures in LGBTQ+ history get sooo much flack for one reason or another normally small dumb reasons.
It hurts seeing the LGBTQ+ youth { mostly older teens } rip to shreds every bit of LGBTQ+ rep over every little thing. It at times feels like no representation may it be fictional or reak people will be good enough.
I'm just sitting there like what the heck???? Because this is everything I've ever wanted..
Everything that so many of us older people wanted and needed in our youth but never got just truly feels taken for granted by younger LGBTQ+.
I don't mean to whine or b🌼tch but it does make me see there is a divide there because any representation us older people got was a divine sent. You'd rewatch it over and over because there you were, represented and it felt so good.
I just wish that the younger LGBTQ+ could see how lucky that they are with all the representation that they get.
{ and also stop shaming real LGBTQ+ celebrities + creators for dumb reasons... Like those are REAL people, y'all need to chill. }

may i ask for some poly relationship w larry & sal x male reader hcs?
Ah! Of course! :) Sorry I've been taking so long school is getting to me cause of finals;-;
Warnings: Noncannon compliant (their parents aren't together, no one dies, etc), NSFW (implied teen NSFW otherwise they're out of highschool), no weird cult stuff but they still ghost hunt, more modernish (?) phones and stuff
Sal x Male Reader x Larry hcs
highschool
I think that Sal and Larry would have gotten together before you got there
Like, I say gotten together but the way they started it was literally best friends that were super hornknee and decided to have sex together
They started then developing romantic feelings for each other though
And although the sex dynamic wasn't perfect (refer to my Sal x reader NSFW fic) it was good and they loved each other
It became an on and off thing until they actually worked it out
they talked about it and decided that it was better that they stay friends until they can sort out their own sexual desires and endeavors
Sal didn't even know he could do both as a switch and verse so he wanted to just re-examine his sexual self
And Larry was okay with that
So they decided to date but just without sex for a while
Then you moved to Nockfell their sophomore year
and god were you cool
Sal was the first one to see you in the hallway
It wasn't love at first sight really
He thought you were cool and he wanted to talk to you
Then that same day he told Larry about you during lunch
"I want to talk to him I just don't know how to approach him"
"Oh, well who is it?"
Ngl Larry was kinda jealous about how flustered Sal was getting at the prospect of a new friend but then Sal pointed at you and Larry was like "Oh, okay, I get it."
So Larry just approaches you
It was kinda to tease Sal about how shy he was being
Also kinda because you looked rad as fuck
So Larry approaches you sitting at a table alone
You were actually quite chill
You were happy since no one was approaching you
You guys hit it off and ended up becoming really good friends!
So for the duration of your sophomore year and the summer of your junior year, you guys were really good pals and hung out a lot
Then Larry started developing feelings first
And he was super confused since he knew he still liked Sal, no doubt about it
So he was just super confused and conflicted because he didn’t want to break up with Sal
So during, about the first half, of all of your junior year he kept this to himself and tried to keep himself from feeling for you
Sal on the other hand already accepted his feelings, he realized it later than Larry
And he read yp on what being polygamous meant
So although there was a lot of confusion at first he figured it's no different from people in love triangles
He realizes it a couple weeks after Larry and decides to bring this up to Larry during winter break
The conversation pretty much just went like Sal explaining polyamory to Larry for an hour
They end up deciding to just wait a bit and try to flirt with you individually
you know,
because they don't remember that you don't know they're attracted to you at this point
:)
So basically you think that they're both trying to cheat on each other for the week they're flirting with you
At the end of that week, you tell them to meet you together
And they don't know any better than to meet you
And then you come to them, don't let them explain, and cry because you don't want two of your best friends to cheat on each other like this even though you like them
And then they realize why you're saying this
So although this was not the time they expected to confess to you they told you what they were trying to do
So you just sat there
With these two idiots
and told them "No guys, cause I was literally having a breakdown about losing my two best friends."
And they confess to you
and everything is emotional and raw and you accept
Your guys' dynamic doesn't change because you’re dating now
The only difference is you guys make out together and show lots more pda
although you always bring up what they did when they were trying to give you hints
"We just really wanted to flirt with you okay??? Is it such a crime to want your crush to fall for you???"
"When you guys don't explain you're looking to expand your relationship, yes. Yes, it is Larry."
"He's kind of right babe-"
"SAL-"
Y'all spend a lot of time communicating with each other on stuff like that now
Your senior year goes without any bumps between all of you and you then graduate
College Dynamic
so you and the gang (except Ash, she moves to the city of course) goes and makes a college house
once you all move in together there it's a new routine
You all agreed and talked about the move together and what it would entail
And then you all finally realized how different it was from a monogamous relationship it was
But you all had your learning curves within the relationship
You find out more about their dynamic as a couple
For example, Larry and Sal never liked to fall asleep without you anymore
They had trouble sleeping without you beforehand and the first time you all slept in the same bed together it was just... so... peaceful
They'll spoon and cuddle without you individually (Sal is always the big spoon with Larry)
but they just love falling asleep next to you
They also refuse to do homework without you there
Even if it's just the simplest this they're just gonna need to have you in the room to finish it
Sal likes to make songs about you guys
He records them and edits some but he never lets you two listen to them
"It's just embarrassing if you two were to listen to it. It's like confessing my love for you guys all over again except I can't hide behind the mask."
So until he decides to release his songs online or plays those at gigs he's never going to let you listen to them
Larry likes to paint you guys
His paintings of you before the "disaster confession" were okay, it just looked like he was making a painting of a friend, except for the occasional rose
But now he paints you and draws you two whenever he can
He finds it funny how flustered you and Sal get whenever he makes suggestive paintings or sketches of you two
One time he painted a whole sex portrait of you and Sal together (A 12 by 28 specifically) hung it upright in front of the door to your rooms and didn't tell anyone
So after you and Sal got home that day you were welcomed with Larry lounging on your bed with the giant picture of you fucking Sal next to him
It was definitely beautiful though, even if it's hard to call your nudes beautiful
"Larry Johnson, this painting, as always, masterful. Beautiful craftsmanship but please-" "-we mean this in the most loving way possible Larry-" "-STOP PAINTING OUR NUDES BABE"
He put it away to be hung up in your apartment for when you all move out
Non-College Life
Once you all finish college you guys move into an apartment outside of Nockfell
The minute after you and Sal leave to get food Larry puts up all his private paintings of you guys
It's funny to him
I imagine you guys moving to a really populated city
Somewhere where it's a good place for people wanting to have creative jobs but still close to Nockfell
Maybe not back to New Jersey but probably not as far as New York or LA
you guys do all the cute stuff you never got to in Nockfell together
It's not like the majority of Nockfell was homophobic, mostly just the people who went to the church
But a lot more of them didn't think that polyamory was possible
So now it's easier
It's not like you never experience any polyphobia anymore but it's easier because you're in a more open-minded place
Sal's favorite thing is to go to concerts now
And pride
He also likes coffee house dates too
Larry gets hit on a lot though whenever you guys go out anywhere though
He finds it funny how jealous you both get
Sometimes if he wants Sal to get really mad he'll play along
But most of the time he shuts it down before it begins
Sal gets hit on a lot at concerts the most though
He gets kind of awkward about it, he's not going to edge them on but he gets uncomfortable enough to just not know how to shut them down
Usually, you and Larry will just appear behind him and whisk him away
Larry likes to use it as teasing leverage for a good rough one that night but you usually make sure he's okay with it before Larry does anything
You get hit on the most casually
Here and there but there aren't really specific places
It just sort of happens
You mostly shut them down alone
But occasionally you'll have to go to Sal and Larry if they're persistent
And they'll be mean too
One of the first times you saw Sal and Larry ever legitimately get that mean was when you got hit on in a club and they both just pulled you behind them and absolutely ripped the person a new one
You guys really like to stay at home if you guys have dates though that way everyone feels included
But when you all do go around together it's always specifically for three people you never tell anyone it's a date for dinner reservations, you always make sure you go on rides everyone wants to go on at amusement parks, and hey if worse comes to worst smoking is a group activity (if you have asthma or any other breathing condition Larry makes you edibles if you really wanna do edibles with them)
Starting jobs there are tough and all but you make it off your feet
Sal ends up booking a lot of gigs and Larry's commission request skyrocket when he moves to the city and makes a blog about his art
You all get an apartment with affordable rent and one that allows Gizmo
I hc that Gizmo is an esp but I don't know if that's real
So regardless you'll still be able to have room for him
Sal proposes to both of you
You guys talked about marriage and decided that it would be easier legally to just not get married through a court
So you guys have a friends wedding and Gizmo is the ring bearer
You guys don't get a fancy venue or anything
You guys all just have a city wedding
NSFW
So, the first time you all decide to hook up it's mostly just very communicative rules beforehand
Sal is more comfortable with being fucked than fucking someone else at most times but "It's not like I never want to stick my dick in you two" as he puts it
He also likes background music on most of the time
It's kinda weird if there isn't just a little bit of music
It isn't really bothersome, you guys keep it below 20 at most times
Sal's also super submissive
He liked it rough, make him cry out for you two
A bit of a pillow prince
Especially enjoys being tied up by you two
gags and blindfolds are on the table
Although whenever he does feel up to fucking you and Larry he'll usually end up having you two ride him because he gets to be such a mess with you two unless he's jealous or upset
Usually, when he's upset he's gonna lift you two up and fuck you against the headboard or wherever you two are if he's impatient enough
One time you were chilling with Larry in your bedroom and he was painting over his easel
Sal burst through the door where it slammed back on itself and closed itself
He then tracks his eyes on you
immediately asks you "Can I please fuck you right now"
and as soon as your safe word and consent comes out of your mouth he's holding you down on the bed and fucking into you so hard you can barely breath
Larry doesn't mind it and just continues painting with you moaning and being so pathetic in the background of his music
He kinda finds it funny because before you all got together and he and Larry would angry fuck it never worked out
Sal was just being a brat most of the time because Larry still wouldn't let him fuck him submissively
Speaking of which, Larry's more comfortable with being dominant, he'll bottom but only if he can still be dominant otherwise forget it
Larry's just a rough fucker anyway
He really likes pushing and holding you two up against walls when he fucks you guys
He likes showing off the muscles he got helping his mom with handy work and stuff like that
The first time he did this was to Sal when you were studying in your guy's room
You said you didn't really wanna participate today so they fucked like they would without you
And so they're talking back and forth, teasing each other
and Larry corners him
And just
lifts him up
It looked like he was just lifting a bag of sugar up
Sal seemed weightless as Larry just rocks into him
It was one of the hottest things you'd seen at the time so you joined them
You do that a couple more times but then it just becomes normal and you decide you need to start finishing all those assignments
Larry does that to you one on one as well without Sal but it happens to Sal a lot more spontaneously
Larry though is kinkier than Sal in some respects
He'll try anything at least once "Lisa didn't raise no bitch-"
He's really into breeding and long fucking sessions though
Like, lowkey he has omegaverse fantasies
Not because of the weird stuff just because a lot of the time..... they have breeding written in
He'll never admit to reading any of it but you know he has at least once
Super into dirty talk
And he's really good at it
He also had a praise kink and a degradation kin
He likes degrading you and you telling him thank you and how good he's treating a filthy little brat like you
"What're my filthy little brats good for other than sucking my dick so well. Taking me so well like the dirty little whores you are?"
"Yes sir-" "-we're made for your big cock-" "-thank you for fucking us like this-"
He especially likes breeding you and having Sal suck you off while he does it, he finds your crying cute
And an added bonus is rewarding Sal after for it
You guys talk about long-term consent and all that and decide that it's a good idea, you all trust and love each other so there isn't a problem
lol this kinda went to shit at the end but I still like it enough! Thanks for the Sally Face request I really like this game and the dynamic between a poly reader hc :)
