A couple of weeks ago, after 3 hours of minute work with my fingers stuck with glue, I've managed to put together again a china knickknack of my late mother, and so it struck me: may I ask for a prompt something on the lines of "loving things to the point of repair", please? I know you can do justice to these soft feelz

Here's a little something I drew to celebrate this momentous occasion 😊. I didn't even realize what a special day today was until I checked IG and saw the Stouds' posts and a few others celebrating. My mind immediately went into hyperdrive so not only did I draw this but also a few dozen little ghosties that I hope to transform into stickers someday soon. How did you celebrate our dear Lockwood and Co.'s birthday?

The Yin to his Yang (and a bit more Tarot)
(See repeat of Preface below if needed)
As the Yin, Crowley’s associations are with Tarot’s Pentacles and Cups, Earth and Water. Unlike Aziraphale, who I identify as air heavy and fire deficient, Crowley is more balanced (and simultaneously out of balance) between his two elements. To start, water is associated with psychic abilities, dreams, intuition, and emotions. Crowley is much more demonstrative with his anger and sadness. He cries when he thinks Aziraphale is lost in the fire, and a huge jet of water smashes him down. He yells, “Great pustulent mangled bollocks to the Great blasted Plan!” He summons lightning with his anger. Water is the shape-shifter, utterly associated with snakes and their ability to flow. Between the two Crowley has transformed into a mini Scot, a particle on the internet, a creepy dog thing in the paintball scene, not to mention his perpetually changing hair and clothes. He is the only demon with an imagination. Crowley is the one who sleeps, and potentially dreams. I suggested previously that Crowley who dreamt (or psychically experienced) the apocalyptic images of the bookshop since he told Aziraphale he “spent the last night worrying if [Gabriel] was going to wake up.” Water implies suspicion, mystery, caution, maybe even paranoia, which suggests how Crowley lacks balance. Even though it is justifiable, he is always on edge, ready to assume something is wrong. He does not share all of his emotions, obviously, but only seems to reveal them when they become overwhelming. 
Earth is the material world, the body, fertility, nourishment, and wealth. In ancient Greek mythology there is a sort of yin/yang with Dionysus and Apollo. Apollo is the air, the reason, and the intellect, with Dionysos is the material, the earth, and also connects wine and drunkenness. Crowley is rarely without a cup of wine or whisky, or “quite extraordinary amounts of alcohol.” Along with being the god of excess, Dionysos is also a chthonic deity, associated with the underworld. The goat also corresponds to the earth, and both to the Devil as well, although Crowley’s affection for “kids” could just as well be to children since Mother Earth and nurturing motherliness is also connected. Of course Crowley is the serpent who gave the nourishing apple, revealing the hidden information about good and evil, and nourishes plants (albeit a bit of an evil mother there). However, Crowey does not partake in much nourishment (not that he needs to) but it is unexpected for a character that loves all the other earthly delights. In tarot pentacles are the earth suit, so naturally the pentagram go with our favorite demon. However, Crowley’s earth element is guarded. His home is cold, even though it is filled with highly valuable material items, and the most lush plants in all of London, but empty nonetheless. The earth is both the womb and the tomb, but Crowley is all tomb at the moment. 
And so for act three Crowley is going to have to reveal more, become more vulnerable (and I gulp since his vulnerable moment at the end of Season 2 was so painful). He will have to continue to reveal his true feelings, but also likely reveal other aspects of himself that are hidden. Who was he before? What is he capable of? I have a feeling Crowley will get to create once again, like he did with his nebulae. Express himself. 
Preface: Crowley is the Yin to Aziraphale’s Yang, but they are also both out of whack. Yin as the feminine energy encompasses Water and Earth. Yang as the masculine energy encompasses Fire and Air. Please note, these are ancient, mystical concepts about the human psyche and have nothing to do with contemporary discussions of gender. (Also worth noting, I have a background in mythology, with special emphasis on Joseph Campbell and Jungian psychology that I lovingly refer to as “hippie-dippy bullshit”)

I love your writing, it’s literally so good oml
Here’s a thought that I can’t get out of my head pornstar stucky edging the absolute life out of reader 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫
OOOH this is so hot!! I love this idea with a really bratty reader? Like maybe the guys came home and caught you playing with your vibe.
So maybe they've been edging you for so long, your legs are twitching in Steve's grip. He's sat behind you, his cock achingly hard, holding your legs spread while Bucky works you with his fingers and tongue.
Bucky never lets you finish. Each time you get close, he pulls away entirely, letting the pleasure dissipate before you can fully give in to it.
"You're so fucking stubborn. Drives me crazy knowing we have to do so much to break you." Steve growls in your ear as Bucky dives back in once more. Bucky's chin is slick, evidence of your need all over his face but he's nowhere near ready to give you what you want.
No matter how much you whine and squirm, you're held in place. "Don't care. 'm not saying sorry." You pant, rolling your hips against Bucky's face as much as Steve will allow.
"That's up to you, honey. But if you want to cum tonight, you know you need to apologise for touching yourself without permission." Steve smirks, enjoying your groans because the last thing you want to do is stay denied but the second last thing you want is to apologise.
"M-maybe if you two fucked me better, I wouldn't need my vibe." Your brain is so muddled, that seems like a good idea to taunt them but you know you're in trouble when Bucky's fingers stop.
"I think you're forgetting how we fucked you stupid last night, huh? Remember you cummin' so many times you begged to stop. Maybe your slutty little pussy needs a reminder." Bucky's beyond pissed off now but his is always a quiet anger.
"I'll hold her, Steve. Your turn." Steve doesn't need to be told twice, swapping places with Bucky but laying you on your back. His thick cock plunges into you while Bucky holds your legs and oh, this is going to be torture.
Steve always hits just right. Both men are so big, the stretch is delicious but when your body is already so sensitive, it's almost overwhelming.
"This is your own fuckin' fault. Stop whining." Steve grunts, fucking himself in and out of your dripping hole, pausing when he thinks you're getting too close.
"Shouldn't have touched what's ours. You don't play with our cunt unless we tell you to." Bucky reminds you. Your eyes are rolling back in your head, each thrust from Steve giving a torturous kind of pleasure.
"S-Steve..." You sob, clenching and fluttering around his length, whimpering at the loss as he pulls out and stops again.
"It's not takin' much to get you right to the edge, is it baby? You're so worked up on Stevie's fat dick. He feels good, doesn't he? He'd let you feel even better if you were a good girl. All you gotta do is say you're sorry. Maybe if you call him daddy, he'll forget all this ever happened." Bucky muses, playing with one of your nipples. Steve looks up from your face to Bucky's, smirking because if you just give in, those men are going to do their best to ruin you together.
"Eat sh-shit, Sir." You whisper, regretting it almost instantly. You need to cum and you need to cum now. Why the fuck are you letting your mouth run away with you?
"God, you're annoying." Steve groans, fucking you relentlessly, so hard and fast you think you might cry with joy. But right as you're about to finish, he stops once more and this time, you might cry from frustration.

So apparently, there is a second Sofia the First spinoff in the works right now. And so while this is still admittedly hardly the ideal time for me to get unnaturally and unhealthy invested in the Ever Realm Cinematic Universe (and especially in Elena of Avalor) , it's also not hypothetically the worst time for me to get invested in it either.

GOOD OMENS SEASON 3 RENEWAL DAY! WAHOO!
So thought I'd throw this into its own post for funsies and see what anyone out there might add to it. 😅 The horrors may persist, but why not remain a little silly?
So we take the renewal date Dec 14 and then the eventual release date, and then the time period between those two dates in a year is like... Mardi Gras, but Good Omens instead? OK BUT HEAR ME OUT, THOUGH-
There could be fancy gatherings where we eat pears, drink wine in very fancy bottles, listen to the playlists, re-watch and re-read as much as we want, feed peas to ducks, and glue pennies to the sidewalks?
What would we call it, though? 😮

not to make everything about Buddie BUT -
when Buck and Eddie lock eyes while Hen and Karen are exchanging their vows, what then?
and when Buck and Chris are dancing and having fun together while Eddie is looking at them tenderly from afar, what then?
and when Eddie joins them on the dance floor and they have their own little happy family moment just the three of them, what then?
WHAT THEN I ASK

They do vulnerability with Mac so well, and in such careful doses. The soft reverence in the way she says, “They had tons of clothes” breaks my heart. So does the confidence in her mispronounciation of “chic”—a beautiful little reference to comic!Mac being a reader, often above her grade level, but feeling like she has to hide it. This kid has so many layers, and she wants so badly to keep anyone from seeing that, because in her world, every layer offers a new chance for someone to slice in deep. Prioritize tough. Prioritize cajones. Don’t let them see you’re smarter than they expect. Don’t let them see you wish you had more than your brother’s hand-me-downs. Don’t let them see you’re dreaming of getting out in a thousand tiny little ways. Let them remember only the brash outer surface, the one that can’t hurt when they don’t like it, because it isn’t really you.
Contrast this with the desperation in her voice when she thinks it’s all going to be erased. The panicked apologies. The hitch in her smile: “Let’s be honest—you couldn’t [forget me], even if you tried, right?” She knows there’s only so much road out ahead of her; she’s seen the stone in the ground. And she’s begging them—with that smile, always play-acting, just a little—to tell her again she’s more than just a tough little shit-starter. To tell her she’s worth remembering. That they will, even if she can’t stay. If I’m going, that moment says, I want it to be when you three can see who I actually am. I want friends. I want to be remembered. I want to matter. It’s all built to with such careful detail work over the season, and I am desperate to see more of it in the future.
