You either die breaking a forth wall to send a bitchface directly into the camera to the fans who write fanfiction about a gay couple involving the character you play or you live long enough to see yourself write & produce tv series of your own fanfiction about a straight couple involving a character you project on and a character you secretly want to be fucked by

#SUPERNATURAL IS NOT ABOUT ROMANCE YOU GUYS...unless #you are dean & dean is Mary and you've got a crush on JDM #we all live out our fantasies through fiction sometimes i guess #Jensen Ackles #SPN #supernatural #the winchesters #dean winchester #Destiel #original #lol #SPN crack #1k #2k

I LOVE the scene of Fig giving Riz a “thinking of you” card to Riz, giving the credit to Gorgug and THEN Gorgug giving Riz such a personal and heartfelt gift and tried to figure out what it was that Riz was talking about

ThotPuppy's Historical-themed Sterek Fic Recs

I know lots of folks have already done one of these! BUT! This is one of my favorite tropes, so... here are some of my faves! As a note, these largely range from ~vaguely medieval~ to incredibly well-researched SPECIFIC 'Medieval' to ~general regency ish~ to VERY Regency to various points in between. I am also aware of some as of yet unwritten but ~coming soon/eventually~ Pirate, Wild West, 1920s, and of course Medieval pieces coming out, so I MAY have to post an updated version in a year or so lol

Also... have one that's not here? PLEASE send it to me! Especially Medieval Fantasy. It's my FAVORITE and I KNOW there are more that I don't have/don't have saved and I'm very interested!

ghostsoap sneakpeak to hozier’s in a week

full post here

#ghostsoap #soapghost #ghoap #simon ghost riley #john soap mactavish #cod mw3 #my art #there’s a whole comic spread. I haven’t been able to stop thinking about them this is infecting my brain #I do really like the idea of ghost reading through soaps journal afterwards and then just getting this fantasy of them retiring and living #together in a cottage somewhere and adjusting his fantasy to little details soap includes in the journal #and completely blowing details out of proportion to match the context of his own yearning #does he warp his own memory of who soap is and their relationship to one another out of longing #perhaps perhaps not. after all the journal is very revealing

Small little moment that can go unnoticed but Taylor saying he finally had someone to watch anime with

his dad sharing his passion for it by mentioning death note only for scary to slice the upper half of his body and then Taylor immediately gets defensive

I swear I am so normal about this boy you don’t even know

#Again Freddie out right says Taylor is Lonely #He uses denial to forget about all the traumatic experiences he’s been through so he can live in this anime fantasy forever #I might be thinking too much into this #dndads #dungeons and daddies #dndaddies #dndads s2 #dndads quest #dndads taylor swift #taylor swift dndads

I will say if we get a Rat Grinders side quest I think it would be a sick full circle moment for Brennan to play Kipperlily while someone else DMs. To me the rat grinders are living through a YA thriller/horror setting and I’d love to explore something like that when we’ve seen essentially a coming of age teen comedy kinda thing with the bad kids.

#maybe I’ll make my own lil dream cast #idk if any of this made sense but d20 does genres so well and in #my heart of hearts the rat grinders are living through their own version of a YA thriller/horror #dimension 20 #d20 fhjy #fantasy high junior year #fhjy

recently I've been thinking about getting all dolled up and putting on my favourite outfit and going out to dinner with my butch, giving them little teases of the lingerie I'm wearing underneath every so often. we'd get home and they'd drag me up the stairs, dragging me over to the bed and sitting me down. hard packing, they'd pull out their dick and grab the back of my hair, messing up my makeup with gentle slaps, and smudging my lipstick with the head of their dick.

I'd suck them off until I'd left a red ring at the base of their cock, and mascara was smudged across my cheeks. they'd pull out and gently wipe away the makeup stains before pulling me up and turning me around, pushing my upper body onto the bed. after pushing my skirt up, their hand would drift up my inner thigh, the other gripping my hip.

I'd make sure to not wear underwear but not tell them, much to their surprise when their gaze falls to my trembling thighs and already dripping folds. knowing that they're smirking at this, revelling in how worked up I am already simply from sucking them off. they'd easily slip one finger in, feeling me clenching around them, already desperate for more.

needing to see my face, they'd pull out and flip me over, kissing me hard and fast at first and then slowing, melting into it. for the next few hours I'd be breathless and tear-streaked from being edged, begging and crying for any sort of relief but not knowing when or if my butch would decide to grant me that.

#oop okay super long post im not very good at these so i apologise but im just obsessed with this fantasy rn #theyre gonna see this later and be like O.O #ily honey <3 #living out my fantasies on tumblr because I'm going through a scared of sex phase cause of asexuality and bad things #wish i could give my gf something like this #so instead i wrote it because i knew he'd like it #mysticfemme's post #long post #butchxfemme #butch #femme

Character notes for that old 3rd life timey-wimey au that I dont have a name for based on that one post. A lot of queer themes. (Disclaimer: history is not my thing, and the point of the au is not to explore the realities of the lives of queer people in these eras. They inform the characters' internal struggles, but are not meant to be the focus of the story)

Grian: London, 1893; an architect that stays closed up in his studio working. He is gay, and considering the era he lives in, he is ashamed and afriad of anyone finding out. Reserved, snappy, and a bit of a bastard underneath. He just wants to be accepted, but never believes it can happen.

Scar: California, 1987; former action super star. He's struggling to find work because he is a vocal advocate for gay rights. Optimistic, stubborn, and unwilling to pretend to be something he is not. He leaps without looking and seizes the moment when it comes. He's an incurable romantic <3

Jimmy: England, 1940; soldier, just drafted to join the war effort. He's not a fighter and is afraid of war; he doesn't think he will make it back. Brave (or foolhearty, depending on who you ask), sensitive, and loyal. He is a young romantic who dreamed of a great love and a family, but he is resigned to never having it.

Scott: UK, 2012; vlogger. His brand is similar to irl, based on that on vlog video he did a while back; openly gay. Cynical, sarcastic, and always teasing and poking fun. He is slow to love but loves deeply.

Scar and Grians story is seperate to Jimmy and Scotts. Flower husbands' is a lot sweeter and softer, while Scarian's is a story of Grian finding self acceptance through his love for Scar. They both end, however, in tragedy. Such is the nature of the game.

#angst abound #ill go find that post so you know what im talking about #i forgot about this au but oh my god #it is just #also i feel a little weird about setting it in a historical setting cause i mainly write fantasy #i dont want to be disrespectful to the actual people who lived through all that #but anyway #scarian #flower husbands #trafficshipping #life series #3rd life #3rd life smp #love for the ages #ribbit #concepts

AGoT was absolutely making some big statementsᵀᴹ re deconstructing unrealistic fantasies and how they make tragedies out of children, with Jon, Bran, and Sansa being the main vehicles for this commentary. They are basically three different versions of GRRM’s critique on the genre. All three had built life expectations based on the songs fed to them as children, but had to have those dreams and aspirations (very) violently shattered as they were thrust into a world that didn’t care how it made corpses out of them. They have all been made victims of fantasy’s violence in a tragic process that is believed to be the natural order.

Sansa realizes in time that the songs didn’t paint the full picture. The singers neglected to warn her that not all handsome princes are kind, and not all knights actually understand the contradictions in the vows they swore; some don’t really care to in the first place. She learns that the handsome prince she loves can brutalize her through the very knights who should protect her (an innocent maiden). Though he doesn’t know it yet, it was Bran’s very ideal that almost killed him. He wanted to be Barristan the Bold, a valiant knight of the kingsguard. But it was a member of this “noble” order that tried to murder him (and thus made his hopes and dreams impossible) because he witnessed him betraying the man and institution he swore allegiance to. And Jon, like Bran, wanted to be the valiant hero. He banked on the songs which propagandized the Night’s Watch and their noble exploits. Then he actually joined the watch and came to learn that this “noble” order is an oppressive xenophobic force; and the contradictions presented when the oppressed (a bastard boy with little social status) unwittingly becomes an oppressor (him initially buying into the propaganda that the wildlings shouldn’t be a protected class).

Once all is said and done, all three children are forced to take on roles that couldn’t be farther from what they envisioned. Sansa is a princess hopping from one tower to the other, forced to cater to the whims of abusive men. Bran is a crippled boy who unlocks a magical power that he doesn’t really care for; he wanted to be a knight not a magician for crying out loud! And Jon does become Lord Commander as he wished, but he is utterly depressed and lonely when he’s made to foreswear family ties and drive his friends away once he gains power over them.

But the cool thing is, in the very same way that fantasy is deconstructed through them, it is also reconstructed and given new meaning as they find a place for themselves in the world in spite of their tragedies. Sansa is still a pretty princess in a tower, but she is learning to be her own rescuer and she has managed to retain empathy and kindness in an environment that tried to tell her how futile it would all be. Bran may be crippled and incapable of becoming Brandon the Bold, but he has reinvented what it means to go on the hero’s adventure and he is beginning to build a role as the Prince of the North. And Jon may be a bastard, yet he has somehow become the living embodiment of what it is to be the valiant prince that little children love to dream about.

#it’s interesting how jon and sansa realize twisted versions of their fantasies whereas bran experiences something completely different #sansa does stay with the prince but she’s a perpetual prisoner #she wishes to bring the prince happiness and joy but it is her suffering not her beauty that excites joffrey #jon actually gets to become the knight and he actually gets to go on the adventure #but holy shit adventure sucks ass and now he’s living every single minute of his life going through a moral dilemma #and jonathan snowflake DID NOT sign up for this #he just wanted to slay some grumpkins and snarks and call it a day #but unlike his siblings bran doesn’t become a knight - he becomes a magician #and he does go on an adventure - but it’s not a knights adventure it’s a magician’s quest #how confusing for poor bran and so he’s just like b-b-b-bbbut #I wanna be a knight so why am I even going on an adventure in the first place if it’s not to be a knight wtffff #it really was bad for them rip #jon snow #bran stark #sansa stark #asoiaf #valyrianscrolls

realizing that, as someone who is aro/ace, i dont feel overjoyed when seeing confirmed aro/ace characters in media because of the inherit loneliness one may feel from this identity and not wanting characters I adore to have to feel such a way. love representation, very hard to face them when its a deep part of your own insecurity and it scares you.

#might be maybe is definitely something I realized through riz gukgak #everyone is so vocal about wanting him to come out officially and how basically canon it is that hes aro ace #and I was unsure why I had a hard time with this when i've never shied away from it before #especially not with queer stuff or even insecurities #Ive always whooped and hollared at any representation #i just realized this one hit too close to home #with issues i have today and will probably fight my whole life #I WANT a relationship I think. I want to love. I cant.#when all of my dearest friends find love #will I even fit into their lives anymore like i used to #anyways sorry little guy im sure your friends would be there for you #fantasy high #question mark? i mean it was what spurred this on
