How would the men of Arcane make love to fem!reader while they spend a night of intimacy together? Passionately? Sensually? Intensely? Roughly?

Sure thing Anon!

Pairing: Viktor, Jayce, Silco, Vander, Ekko, Marcus, Finn x Fem!Reader

Tags: nsfw, smut, established relationship, kissing, rough sex, gentle sex, fingering, dirty talk, cuddles, aftercare, size difference

A/N: Love that I'm still getting Arcane requests even though the fandom seems to have died down a little.

Viktor is sensual and rough when he makes love with you. Sensual with his words, rough with his fingers and when he thrusts into you. It's the duality of him, kind of in the same way where he seems really cute and meek but is actually pretty cocky behind closed doors.

He always balances his sweet talking with the same amount of his cock hitting at just the right angle inside of you to get your eyes to roll into the back of your head. Will praise you to no end, but in between every word he will make sure he gets a good thrust in to keep you on your toes, and your back arched.

"Thought you liked it when I talked all sweet to you, darling. Was that a lie? No, no, I'm not saying you lie to me all the time, just when you really crave this dick. You should be honest, I love you and I love giving you what you want, so don't even try to tell me to shut up now okay? I know it makes you tighter when I talk."

Jayce is the most passionate guy you've ever made love to. He puts his all behind everything he does, weather that be the candle-lit path to the bedroom, the foreplay where he's on all fours and eating you our or when he has you on all fours and hammering your cunt like there's no tomorrow.

No way will you be able to even think of any other man when he shows you what he can do for you. He dedicates his all to your pleasure, his is secondary to you. In fact the most pleasure he will get is when he sees you that you're enjoying what he's doing for you, to you.

"Here's good right? Doesn't hurt? Good, with my size it can be a little tricky. All out then, fuck... been waiting for you to say that all night. Babe, I'm about to ruin you. Oh you bet, gonna make you lose count of your orgasms, I wanna make you feel the best you've ever felt."

Silco is very intense and can get very rough if the situation calls for it. He really likes to show his power over you and make every experience better then the last by making you wait, by edging you a bit longer until you come to the point where you're the one hoping on his cock when the doors slam shut.

There are few people he enjoys spending time with and you're definitely one of them, weather its you bent over his office desk, cockwarming him while he goes over the papers, or choking on his cock all day under the desk, he likes having you close and he likes when you know he's the boss.

"A break? We just got started darling. That was just two, there's still a lot more to go. If it's gonna make it easier you can rest by getting under the desk a little. If I feel that mouth, or your hand stopping for even a second you're gonna give me two more orgasms. Understood? Good girl."

Vander can get very passionate and rough but he always follows it up with a really long cuddle and aftercare session. That's something he likes slightly more then the sex itself. It's good, its really good, having your warm pussy stretched around his huge cock, but he can't say he doesn't love it how you cuddle up on top of him after.

He always prepares you for his cock but the prep can be just as rough as the sex itself since its so easy for him to get lost in the whimpers and moans that you make when he adds another finger. And then another. Your hip and thighs are sometimes bruised with a very big handprint. You don't always hide it either.

"Easy darlin', I know you're as horny as can be but you know as well as I that you can't me right away. Its frustrating? Well I'm sorry for being big, nothing I can do about it. I'll get you there don't worry. In the mean time, tell me, how was your day? You thought of me? That's very flattering, I couldn't stop thinking about getting my hands on you either."

Ekko is a very sensual lover and a bit on the calculated side as well. A lot of his plans tend to go a little astray when he sees you naked but eventually he's able to get you right where he wants you and make you feel good.

He cannot stop touching you while he makes love to you. He needs to feel your body quivering every time he jolts his hips forward and buries his cock to the hilt, every time you bite into his neck to muffle your next moan because you know how cheeky he can be and go from slow to fast and then to slow again in order to make it last longer for the both of you.

"You keep messing up my plans Firefly. I was gonna sweep you of your feet, make it all nice, romantic for you, but you had to go and make me this hard right away. I can't focus on romance like this, all the blood's rushing to my cock. Fucking gods, getting on your knees is not making it any better. Well... maybe a little bit."

Marcus is rough and intense because in all honestly he feels like he doesn't deserve what he has with you. He needs to make sure he's not dreaming, that you're real, that you love him despite all his damn mistakes, that you can handle everything he has to give.

When he really gets into it there's hardly any stopping him until he's spent and laying almost limp on top of you, kissing your neck, your shoulders, your face, almost like he's saying sorry when there's nothing for him to be sorry for. You always assure him that when you allow him to be rough, its because you want him to be, he's never hurting you unless you need him to, and he never will.

"Did I overdo it? You'd tell me if I did right? No, I know you can be my pretty painslut, I love that side of you sweetheart, you know I do. Just trying to make sure. You think you can take more? Your pussy's already so sensitive, it keeps pulsing around me, squeezing out all the cum, are you sure? One more round then."

Finn is very rough with you and is proud of all the ways he makes you whimper and moan and even cry on occasion. There is a safeword for you to use but he's rarely heard it from you so he's very familiar with your limits by now. He really likes to manhandle you and use your body as his pretty fucktoy, you're not even ashamed that you like it just as much anymore.

He was so surprised when you asked him to slap you but he didn't hold back either. He kissed, or rather licked the pain away before ramming his cock back inside your cunt with so much force your back arched off the bed and scratch his back up like he's been mauled. Good, he loves a mutual give and take.

"Oh my gods kitten, begging to be hit. I knew you were a kinky whore from the moment I saw you. Aren't you glad I helped you find this side of yourself? If you're so grateful you'll come on my cock right now. Do it! Come on, come on, let me feel that cunt sucking my cock."

Everyone’s gone UFO crazy. Maybe The X-Files should come back

Chrissy Iley

MARCH 2, 2024

Starring in a poignant new film adapted from his own novel, David Duchovny reveals the heartache of almost losing his daughter... and why his most famous show could yet return

No wonder David Duchovny has written, directed and stars in his latest movie Bucky F***ing Dent... it’s based on his own bestselling 2016 novel of the same name. Poignant and funny, it examines a father-son relationship via baseball, with X-Files star David playing Marty the dad, who’s dying of lung cancer, and Logan Marshall-Green from Spider-Man: Homecoming as his estranged son Ted.

The real Bucky Dent went down in history for scoring an unlikely home run for the New York Yankees in a 1978 tie-breaker against arch rivals the Boston Red Sox, and the film’s title is how generations of Boston fans have referred to him ever since, a metaphor for heartbreak. Set in that same year, the film follows struggling writer Ted as he moves back into his childhood home when he hears his father is dying, prompting a whirlwind of dark revelations from the past. Meanwhile, Boston fan Marty’s health dips whenever his beloved Red Sox lose, so New York fan Ted orchestrates the illusion of a Boston winning streak...

Marty has transferred his feelings for an old flame (the secret love of his life, not his wife) to the Red Sox. ‘The intensity of fandom has always puzzled me,’ says David. ‘It has to be a kind of sublimation. My father and I liked playing baseball; my best childhood memory is playing it with him and enjoying the simple communication you can have through a game, but we didn’t share the fandom thing.

‘Marty’s transposed his feelings for this woman to the Red Sox, and the movie is really about the idea of losing. In America there’s a sick addiction to winning and winners, but most of us have to lose every day. Suffering makes us human - it unites us all.’

There’s a moment in the film when Marty is talking about a chest infection that almost killed Ted as a child. Marty says he begged God or whoever to take his lungs instead and let Ted live. ‘One thing I’ve never told anyone is that when my daughter was nine months old she got really ill,’ reveals David. ‘Her mother [actress Tea Leoni] and I had to face the fact we might lose her and I remember feeling so devastated, I didn’t think I could love anything again if she died.’

His daughter West, now 24, has since become a successful actress who seems to have inherited her mother’s stunning blonde looks and her father’s charisma. ‘I think she has a greater passion for acting than either of her parents ever did,’ he says. They also have a son Kyd, 21, and David says the hardest moment of his life was telling them he and Tea were divorcing ten years ago, as his own parents had done when he was 12. ‘It was far worse telling them than actually experiencing it. When you’re a child you just try to get through it, you don’t feel responsible. As a parent I felt at least 50 per cent responsible.’

Tall and thin with good skin and an easy charm, David seems untouched by the ageing process, although this role is a huge shift from the Lotharios he usually plays, such as bed-hopping writer Hank in comedy-drama series Californication. Does getting older bother him? ‘Of course, and as an actor you have to think of the different roles you’ll be offered. When I was writing this script I was thinking I’d play Ted, the son. We tried to make it four or five years ago and I was still going to play Ted, but then when it came to doing it I realised it just wouldn’t work, so I thought I’d play Marty. And that was exciting because it was very different.’

Californication won two Emmys and a Golden Globe, but was notorious for its portrayal of LA’s seedier side. Does he think it could be made now? ‘Certainly they would insist on intimacy coaches, but I don’t think it would be made now, for the wrong reasons. There was a misunderstanding about what it was about. It was meant to be funny, and it was meant to be about family and love. But what everybody got excited about was not that,’ he says, referring to the furore over the sex scenes. ‘In my mind the show was misperceived.’

Another of David’s roles that would spark a row today was a transgender FBI agent in Twin Peaks in the early 90s, when almost no transgender women were on TV. Again it was groundbreaking. ‘But if you’re playing a murderer no one asks you, “Have you murdered people?”’ he says. ‘It was just being an actor.’

David is, of course, best known for The X-Files, in which he played UFO-obsessed FBI agent Mulder opposite Gillian Anderson’s sceptical Scully. The series finally bowed out in 2018 after 11 series, but could there ever be another? ‘Maybe - it might even be more current now,’ he says, referring to the recent release of top-secret UFO files in the US. ‘I’m not personally interested in UFOs so it doesn’t make it more exciting for me to revisit The X-Files. It was a role I played but I wasn’t passionate about the subject. Maybe I’m the only one who isn’t.’

There was a brouhaha at the time about the huge pay discrepancy between David and Gillian, and I wonder if it would be difficult for him to work with her again. ‘As far as I know, by the end there was no difference at all between us, but Hollywood salaries are very weird,’ he says. ‘I’m going to London soon and I’ll see Gillian because she lives there now. I saw her in the West End doing All About Eve and I enjoyed it. She wished me luck with Bucky too.’

In recent years David has explored his passion for music, releasing a couple of folk-rock albums. So does he see himself as an actor, a director or a musician? ‘All of them, I’m an artist,’ he says. ‘I can filter stuff through a song, a novel, a performance or through directing. There are all kinds of ways of being an artist. I write best about dramatic things. There’s a way to deal with suffering to create art.’

Interview with Jonathan Bailey and Matt Bomer from GQ Hype

Filled with cozy, Hemingwayesque signifiers of midcentury masculinity (think: taxidermy and artfully-tattered boxing gloves), the restaurant seemed perfect for a breezy, late-autumn hang in the West Village.

But there’s one problem: Matt Bomer and Jonathan Bailey have burgers on their minds. And while this place boasts a surplus of dead animals nailed to the wall, it somehow only serves snacks and salads in the afternoon. And as Bomer points out, Corner Bistro—a pub that, in his opinion, serves some of the best burgers in town—is just a six-minute walk away.

The British-born Bailey—who, in his black sweater, floppy beanie and overstuffed backpack, looks more like a backpacker who just rolled out of his hostel rather than one of the streaming era’s top heartthrobs—waxes rhapsodic about In-N-Out, the California burger institution, which he recently tried for the first time.

He asks the suave, Old Hollywood-handsome Bomer, who spends most of his time in L.A. with his husband and three teenage sons, where In-N-Out falls on his personal burger index. “Our boys are really good judges of burgers,” Bomer says, and for them, In-N-Out is up there—but so is the burger at Corner Bistro. And how can we send Bailey—the Viscount of Bridgerton himself—back to London without tasting New York’s best?

Our location, midway between Stonewall Inn and Julius, two of New York’s most historic gay bars, is apt. The project we’re here to talk about—the epic new Showtime series Fellow Travelers, in which the pair star—tips its hat to the legendary 1969 riots that happened in Stonewall, but goes even further, telling the story of gay liberation in the second half of the twentieth century.

Part epic love story, part political thriller, Fellow Travelers begins in 1950s Washington, D.C., with an illicit affair between the strapping Hawkins “Hawk” Fuller (Bomer), a State Department official savvy to the ways of power, and the earnest, energetic Timothy “Tim” Laughlin (Bailey), the kind of wide-eyed idealist who goes to D.C. wanting to change the world. When they first meet, Tim is a conservative Catholic boy; his passionate, intensely erotic affair with Hawk both liberates him and throws him off his path.

Through the decades-spanning run of their relationship, the series takes us from the Lavender Scare of the 1950s—when a McCarthy-era policy that institutionalized homophobia expelled many “sexual deviants” from government, resulting at one point in a suicide a day—to the AIDS crisis of the 1980s.

The series is based on the Thomas Mallon novel of the same name. But where Mallon’s book generally focuses on the 1950s and the explosive romance between Hawk and Tim, the series expands the Fellow Travelers universe to reach through the decades and cover the Vietnam War protests of the '60s and the White Night riots of 1979.

“It's been taught that LGBTQIA+ history begins at Stonewall,” says Jelani Alladin, the actor who plays queer Black journalist Marcus Hooks in the series. “It’s a kind of false narrative. Queer people have been around taking a stand for themselves since the beginning of time.”

It feels like a disservice to call a series so sexy and so compelling as educational. But Fellow Travelers does serve as an important history lesson for younger generations who may not fully understand the battles fought before their time. “It was a really dark period in American history that obviously we're not taught in school,” says executive producer Robbie Rogers, who prior to his work in film and TV was the soccer player who became the first openly gay man to compete in a North American professional sports league. “We're not taught LGBT history.”

When the first episode of the series came out in late October, a viral clip showcasing Bailey and Bomer in a particularly kinky sex scene had Gay Twitter shuddering with excitement. In the scene, Bailey’s Tim uses his power as a sub to persuade Bomer’s Hawk to take him to an important D.C. party. “I’m your boy, right?” he tells Hawk. “Your boy wants to go to the party.” In surely one of this year’s hottest scenes on film or TV, we see Bailey hungrily suck on Bomer’s toes and gamely attempt to put his foot in his mouth. Earlier in the series, Hawk gives Tim the name “Skippy” after thoroughly dominating him in bed, a gesture of affection as much as of ownership.

Sex is a powerful, world-shifting force in Fellow Travelers, but it’s also a Trojan horse. While the early episodes bristle with erotic energy, every exchange between Bomer and Bailey is about power as much as it is about sex. And the further you go into Travelers, the more you realize what’s really at stake when these two hit the sack.

“Even in the ‘50s, they had joy,” Travelers creator and writer Ron Nyswaner, the Oscar-nominated screenwriter of Philadelphia, says. “You might be struggling, but that doesn't mean every moment of your life you're a victim of oppression. Behind closed doors they had a life—it's just that at any moment, the police could come through those doors and ruin that life.”

That unapologetic approach to queer desire is still pretty revolutionary in a big-budget prestige series on a major network. Gone are the days when gay characters were allowed to exist onscreen as long as they adhered to respectability politics. In Fellow Travelers, the queer characters are allowed passionate, unapologetically freaky pleasures.

“There's no shame attached to that,” Bailey says. “And I do think Matt's character detonates something in Tim. It's a gift to meet someone [who does the] radical act of helping you feel less shame and understand that intimacy that can be explored in so many different ways.”

Religion is a big theme in Fellow Travelers. Hawk is bound by covenant to his wife; Tim struggles with Catholic guilt. And like many queer people, Bomer and Bailey themselves have both had to negotiate religion within their queer identities.

“It took me a long time to dismantle it and to question what I was being told,” Bailey says. “Religion is interesting because it’s the voice of the shame but also [a source of] relief. There was this person that I could speak to—and I definitely did have that full conversation with a higher power. But the contradiction is brutal. To really lean into that as a gay kid who's not born into a gay family, you see both sides of what religion can provide, which is scathing judgment—as I felt it looking back—but also a real space for catharsis and nourishment.”

Bomer says he has an individualized approach to religion: “It's something that I've found for myself over years and years of exploration. It's just highly personal that way.” Bomer is proud to have raised his kids in a truly intersectional environment. “They go to an Episcopal school, but they're in school with Muslim kids, with Jewish kids,” he says. “We gave them that experience and then let them find their own way from there.”

On the way to Corner Bistro, Bomer gives Bailey a capsule tour of gay West Village. “That’s an iconic lesbian bar,” he says, pointing out Cubbyhole on West 12th street. Later, he asks if we’ve ever been to Fire Island. “You can have any experience you want there,” Bomer tells me, when I confess my anxiety around Speedos. “It's not just one thing.”

These streets bring up certain memories for Bomer. He tells us about coming up as an actor in New York in the early 2000s, at one point living in “a renovated crackhouse in Brooklyn.” Later, he worked two jobs to afford a one-bedroom apartment he split with a fellow aspiring actor—none other than Lee Pace, the famous, and famously tall (6′ 5″, if you don’t know), actor and Internet Boyfriend who Bomer has known since high school. “I’ll tell you how long I've known Lee Pace,” he says. “I’ve known him since he was shorter than me, when he was 14 and I was 15.”

As gay men are wont to do, trust that the group veered off-topic to talk about vocally-prodigious divas. Bomer has just seen the Broadway production of David Byrne’s Here Lies Love, which tells the story of the rise and fall of Imelda Marcos, the wife of the Philippine dictator Ferdinand Marcos. And when he finds out that I grew up in the Philippines, he tells me how much he loves Lea Salonga, the Tony-winning Filipino Broadway star who appears in the production.

We ask Bailey if he’s familiar with her. “Do I know Lea Salonga?” he asks. “She was Fantine!” he retorts, referring to her role in Les Misérables in Concert: The 25th Anniversary.

From there, we fall into a Filipino diva rabbit hole, talking about former Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger (currently appearing in a well-received West End production of Sunset Boulevard that Bomer tells Bailey they must catch together), Mutya Buena of the Sugababes (an iconic U.K. girl group that Bailey and I separately saw live recently), and Darren Criss (who Bomer directed on The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story—technically a straight male, but one who earns diva status for his formidable vocals and the dance he did in a red speedo on Versace).

As we near the pub, a thirty-something woman walking hand in hand with her man does a hilariously convincing impression of the Distracted Boyfriend meme at the sight of Neal Caffrey and Anthony Bridgerton casually strolling through West 4th Street.

“Her neck!” Bailey says, audibly concerned.

In Corner Bistro, with sandwiches and coffees in hand (Bailey decides on a classic burger and a grilled chicken sandwich), we settle down in a cozy booth and talk about the points in their careers where Fellow Travelers found the actors, the hard-won representation Hollywood’s queer community has been fighting for for decades, and the LGBTQ+ talents of color they’d like to support on their own projects.

Bomer, of course, has been famous since the early 2010s, when he became a star on the series White Collar, and along with Neil Patrick Harris, proved that openly gay actors could become leading men. Since then, he’s conquered Broadway (The Boys in the Band), won a slew of awards (Golden Globe and Critic's Choice trophies for The Normal Heart) and become a producer and director.

In the past, Bomer has discussed the way doors closed on him even as he was being celebrated for being an out gay actor. When asked about that now, he says, “I choose just to never look back in anger about anything. Ultimately, my career is a lot richer because I decided to be open with who I am.”

“It’s a wave of progress that Matt's been surfing and is at the front of,” says Bailey. “And it's been a real honor to be able to get on my boogie board next to him.”

Before he became a global star mid-pandemic playing the grumpy, furry-chested Anthony Bridgerton on the Netflix juggernaut Bridgerton, Bailey was an award-winning actor in both the West End and British television. Huge fame didn’t find Bailey until his early 30s, so when it did, he had a clear idea of what he wanted to accomplish with his platform.

“I feel the responsibility immeasurably,” Bailey says. “I get it when people are saying you create a chair and bring people [to the table].” He talks about the connection between the civil rights movement and the queer liberation. “The Black queens are the ones who really started to fight,” he says. “It's amazing to feel politically activated. And if there's any project to do that, it's going to be Fellow Travelers. It will change the way I see myself in and the world I live in.”

The intersectionality makes the story Travelers is trying to tell even richer—most of all in Alladin’s scene-stealing portrayal of the conflicted Marcus Hooks, a pioneering Black journalist who pushes against segregation as he grapples with his own sexuality. “When I look at older men today, I'm like, You guys have endured so much,” Aladdin says. “From the Second World War all the way through to the AIDS crisis, it was nonstop life crisis after life crisis. To have been able to survive through all that, there needs to be a real, solid weight on the feet of [these characters].”

Part of the pleasure of watching Fellow Travelers is picking up on the cinematic references hidden in each scene. Hawk and Tim’s first interactions evoke the forbidden affair in David Lean’s 1945 classic Brief Encounter. When Hawk’s family settles in suburbia, the show evokes the Technicolor repression of the great Douglas Sirk melodramas. When Hawk and Tim run through the beaches of Fire Island in the ‘70s, that iconic image of Burt Lancaster and Deborah Kerr kissing on the beach in From Here to Eternity may flicker in your mind. And in some ways, the series plays like a gayer, hornier The Way We Were—an epic love story tossed on the tides of political change. (In this version, of course, the Barbra Streisand character is an eager foot-licking sub and Redford’s Hubbell Gardiner is a daddy with a pit fetish.) Fellow Travelers allows us to imagine an alternate timeline where queer love has always gotten as much screen time as cinema’s great heterosexual romances, giving other kinds of stories the chance at celluloid immortality too.

In the book, Hawk is described as being more handsome than Gregory Peck. But seeing Bomer in period-appropriate clothing, the Old Hollywood leading man I thought of was Montgomery Clift, the talented and ultimately tragic gay actor who starred in classics like Red River and A Place in the Sun. For a time in the mid 2010s, Bomer was attached to star in a Montgomery Clift biopic for HBO, to be directed by the great gay director Ira Sachs. “Ira is a genius,” Bomer says. “[But] I think that ship may have sailed.”

Still, when I press him about doing it in the future, he lights up. “You know, I’m [now] the same age Monty was when he passed away,” Bomer says. “I always thought it'd be really interesting to do a play about the last night of his life, when he's watching one of his old movies on TV. And he had this man who lived with him and took care of him for the last chapter of his life.There's an interesting play in there somewhere…. Maybe Liz Taylor swings by.”

What’s changed since the mid 2010s is that a lot of Hollywood’s current gatekeepers are queer people who were fighting from the bottom a decade ago. “It's the people, the gatekeepers who are now going, ‘We are going to make this [queer] story,’” Bailey says. “This narrative that gay people have to be closeted in order [for a project] to be commercial and in order for things to be interesting to people—it's been dismantled. But it's slow because it's not just straight people who think that—I think everyone believed that in the system of Hollywood.”

Nyswaner, who has been working in Hollywood since the early ‘80s, has seen that shift up close. “When I grew up in the ‘60s and early ‘70s, I never heard the word ‘homosexual’ spoken aloud,” he says. “There was no conversation that I ever had with anybody about homosexuality. It was not just bad, it was the unspeakable thing—that's how terrified people were of us.”

And while he agrees that, in some ways, it feels like the LGBTQ+ community is once again losing ground on some rights, Nyswaner refuses to accept that there hasn’t been change. “Sometimes I hear people say, ‘Well, we haven't gotten anywhere.’ And I'm here to say, ‘Oh, yes, we have.’ Because actually you can turn on the television and find gay characters.”

Fellow Travelers is the culmination of a dream for a number of the men involved in the series.

“When I met Ron, he was talking about how he thinks about this as his lifelong legacy project,” Bailey says. “And I just said to him, ‘Whoever ends up going on this journey with you, I think it'll be the same [for them] probably.’”

“In some ways, Fellow Travelers is a span of my life,” Ron Nyswaner says. “I was an infant in the McCarthy era. And then I came out of the closet in 1978 and just danced and did cocaine and had multiple sexual partners—we didn't know what was coming, which was the AIDS crisis.” Nyswaner was nominated for a Best Original Screenplay Oscar in 1993 for Philadelphia, the landmark drama about an AIDS patient who sues his employers for AIDS discrimination. In a way, the historical span of Fellow Travelers gives the battles fought in Philadelphia their context.

Rogers remembers being a closeted soccer player in the late 2000s, watching Tom Ford’s A Single Man and hoping one day to be able to find love and take control of his own narrative. And Bailey recalls, post-Bridgerton, realizing that he could suddenly write his own destiny and vowing to seek out “a sweeping gay love story.”

Bomer, meanwhile, says—laughing, but seemingly dead serious—that it’s his goal to play a queer character from every decade of the 20th century. “A queer Decalogue,” he says, referencing the Krzysztof Kieślowski classic.

Bomer’s next project might just help him do that. He’s currently producing a Steven Soderbergh film on Lawrence v. Texas, the case that overturned the sodomy laws in Texas in 2003 but started in the 90s.

There are many more stories to tell. And as our interview winds down, Bomer and Bailey start spitballing dream projects.

We talk about All of Us Strangers director Andrew Haigh, who’s revered for his portraits of gay intimacy. “Andrew Haigh has been a special filmmaker for years,” Bailey says. “I think [his film] Weekend informed actually how I approached the sex scenes in [Fellow Travelers].”

“I’d love to play Jessica Fletcher's queer grandson who moves back to Cabot Cove,” Bomer says, referencing Angela Lansbury’s iconic role in Murder, She Wrote. “He's inherited her house and he finds an old journal in her library, and it's a case she never saw and he takes up her mantle.”

And moments before the restaurant speakers suddenly start blaring George Michael’s “Freedom ’90,” Bailey comes in with a killer pitch: “I’m obsessed with the Sacred Band of Thebes, an army of 300 gay lovers in [ancient] Greece. They partnered in pairs, this gay army, and they overthrew a Spartan army… I want to do that as a comedy.”

“Oh hell yes!” Bomer says.

“Just get all the queer actors together,” Bailey says, laughing.

“Lee Pace, everyone,” Bomer says.

“Where would we film it?” Bailey asks.

“Mykonos?” Bomer suggests.

“Flaming Saddles, down the road,” Bailey counters with a chuckle, referring to a gay bar in midtown.

“Oil us up and let’s go!” Bomer says.

🌞When the planets are transiting in the house where you have the north node , you will feel more comfortable with this energy, because it is an energy that you can focus on.

💔🌧Because pluto makes relationships strong, intense, meaningful, deep, passionate. Therefore, it is good if you have a pluto in synastry in the 1st, 7th, 8th, 11th house.

🔥Mars shows your energy and it is very good that person’s mars matches yours mars because then your energy is directed towards the same thing.

♍️Virgos can be very fun, funny, comical and ready to party. Virgos can also be very loud when you meet them.Many times, however, their well-being depends on the environment in which they are.

🌊Wherever you have pluto in birth chart, that's where you don't trust or have the most doubts in that area. ✨Pluto in 1st house- maybe u don’t trust yourself enough. Or you don’t listen to your intuition. But pluto here means that you have a hard time trusting everyone around you, especially the people you meet. You never talk about your life or private matters. You keep almost everything to yourself. 🫧🫧Pluto in 11th house -you don't trust your friends or the people around you. it's hard to hang out with someone without thinking that they might disappoint you. Maybe you have a constant doubt that people will hurt you, betray you, and therefore you gather friends very carefully and specifically. You may be afraid to share your dreams or ideas with others because you feel they will copy them.

🌙🦭🏝Your moon depends on what emotionally attracts you the most, excites you, where you find your shelter, where you feel most fulfilled. Moon in pisces-where there is peace, spirituality, above all I think they like the feeling of connection with someone in a spiritual way, things from childhood. Moon in cancer- good food and watching movies, feeling at home, feeling comfortable when they are with someone, emotional connection, just vibing with someone.

🩸Your mars shows where you have the most energy, where you give it and invest it, where you are right after the action and who you like to spend time with and in what way. Mars in 9th house- travel, new knowledge, adventure, you explore new places, you like to have energy and meaning in the things you do and you like to spend time with people who are fun. Mars in 12th house- getting high with your friends, astrology, to explore things that are deep, you like to do dreamy things.

🧸Venus shows what kind of people you attract and in what way. Mars shows where your energy is most sexual and how other people see you in a sexual light, at the same time the placement of Mars shows what attracts you the most and what you want to have or who.

💘In synastry you feel the person most through 1st, 7th, 8th,9th house & 12th house. But the first house is the most influential because this is how you see the person in terms of their appearance, character. What do you immediately like about a person. When we look at the 9th house, here you see a person through what they can teach you and what excites you about them (what makes you like them), the 7th house shows how ideal this person is for you and how you imagine a relationship with them.8th house show how we feel a person through his soul, and how we see his bad side. 12th house and how we see a person through the artistic side and his dream side

do you have any thoughts on luna and harry as a potential couple post-canon? i was reading your post on harry/ginny and i really loved your perspective on it, especially when you said your vision for harry post war was basically just lots and lots of big dogs (i LOVE that mental image and i agree it would be SO good for him!!) but i was wondering if you'd consider luna and harry to be a good match for each other? personally i have a sort of soft spot for the pairing because of how fond harry is of her in canon, and i think if anyone was going to understand and be unfazed by all the difficult trauma responses and long healing process he's going to be dealing with for years after the war, luna seems like a good fit :)

My love for Harry as a character is kind of unusual to me, considering I go pearl-diving for ships when I read things, and I fall in love with dynamics as a conduit to falling in love with characters. That said, I don't really ship him with anybody. I just genuinely adore That Weird Little Dude. Same with Ron; I'm just as pleased to see them with a range of people, because (A) I believe they're good partners and can have great relationships with many people (Ron Weasley get behind me they could never make me hate you Ron Weasley), but also (B) I don't see either of their canon relationships as Definitive. Some characters I ship together because I sincerely believe they are (non-deterministic) soulmates, in that they bring out parts of each other that make them the freshest, happiest, most interesting versions of themselves. With other characters, I'll look at a couple and go: "Huh. Could work!" and smack my giant rubber [APPROVED] stamp on it, then get back to work on my blorbos.

Luna and Harry are one of those couples for me. As I mentioned in that other post, I think Harry's primary requirement in a partner is someone who can treat him normally, i.e. will be generally chill about the Became Wizard Jesus Twice situation. Which is a big ask. Luna is uniquely capable of doing that because Luna is not normal at all, and so treats all things, extraordinary and ordinary both, as uniformly dazzling and delightful. I believe this is why Harry enjoys her so much in their friendship, because he gets to feel valued and treasured without feeling unusual or othered — a hard line to toe, and one even Ron and Hermione occasionally trip up on. He seems to like hanging out with her a great deal, and I think it says something sweet that he asks her to the Slug Club party instead of any of the girls in Gryffindor from his year, whom he'd ostensibly know better.

Luna is a bit of a cipher to me, I admit. We know she's the daughter of an eccentric and probably traumatized single father, raised without a mother; deeply lonely, because of how she's been ostracized for her beliefs and hobbies, and the victim of some degree of bullying for it; and yet full of a passionate, almost effortless wonder and joie de vivre. She's also intensely loving (cf. painting her friends' faces on her bedroom ceiling) and very hard to embarrass. She likes Harry for understandable reasons; they share most of those qualities (Harry's more sensitive to others' opinions, understandably so), and the only point where they diverge is their actual hobbies and interests. Harry seems pretty fond of her nonsense, and I bet she could sell him on crumple-horned snorkacks given some time — maybe if Hermione took a vacation to Switzerland and left them alone together.

In general, what I find sweet about the idea of these two is they're so chill. These are two people whose chief ambition is to hang out, enjoy their hobbies, and see some cool magical shit. Date night is so fucking easy for these two. Plus, Harry is a hothead a lot of the time, and Luna just... vibes. Literally never bothered. Insane levels of not fussed at all times. Very helpful for Harry, who has a bad tendency to bottle up his feelings and then blow up at the first person to sneeze at him. Conversely, I'd hope that Harry would age into the kind of genial, confident dude who would be able to rock up with a function where people were talking shit about Luna and be like :) My wife? You mean my wise and beautiful wife? Surely you are not talking about my wise and beautiful wife. :) instead of doing what he'd do from age 15-17, which is get mad and stomp around sulking. Which, again: teenager. Orphan. Non-stop trauma gauntlet from age 2-18. Excuses are made. But still. Would think it best if Luna's husband were not perhaps so keenly sensitive to gossip, for Luna's sake.

Anyway, these are just some dissembled thoughts. There's also something in there about Harry, boy under the staircase, falling in love with the magical world and ending up the Most Magical person, i.e., the person who took believing in magic to such an extreme that she imagines magic that doesn't exist yet. And Luna ends up with the one person who's inarguably stranger than she is.

#another e.g. for a Definitive couple would be Annabeth and Percy for instance.#like I think Nico and Will are cute but I'm fine if they date other people! I don't *root* for that but I'd be chill and open to it #if Percy and Annabeth break up I'm setting the book on fire and doing a Cursed Child brainwipe. it isn't happening.#they are Definitive. they are narrative complements. they need to kiss for Thematic Purposes (read: pretentious)#greenteacup asks #Harry and Ginny also exist in the rubberstamp box for me #I think Ginny does different things for Harry and has different strengths/faults #sidebar naming their daughter after luna is SO cute and lily luna is the one potterchild I'm okay with the name of #but it also makes me think about harry/luna kids and. you know what. I think it would go better #harry would be like 'perhaps... albus severus' and luna would be like :D great idea! I was Thinking Of Lysander Philodemus Crantor.#and then she would negotiate him down to like. 'katherine' but with a byzantine combination of Y's and E's

Given that Hunter was introduced to anime in the Human Realm (canon), what do you think some of his favourites would be? Any he wouldn't like as much?

Astro Boy

Voltron Defender of the Universe (the 80s one. He eats it up. Its his cocomelon)

Mobile Suit Gundam Wing

Gus also enjoys Sci-fi type stuff so this is what they watch together <333

Sailor Moon/Cardcaptor Sakura/Whatever other cute wholesome power of friendship magical girl animes that you can think of. I just believe he loves Magical Girls. That is a headcanon that is attached to my brain like a leech.

Pokemon. He loves cute little creechurs, they're silly and they remind him of palismen <33

I imagine that he really enjoys sports anime. Especially the ones with intense homoerotic friendships. He loves Haikyu and Free, god bless. If you dare to open your mouth during Yuri on Ice, he will kill you.

As a guy who is a bit awkward, passionate about his interests, a little bit on the gnc side, and into making clothes, I think he'd like Princess Jellyfish.

I think when it comes to anime he WOULDN'T like, I think maybe....slice of life shojo high school stuff. Ones that are deeply rooted in experiences that Hunter cannot connect to. Not that he hates that stuff. He just struggles to relate. Also, as introspective, sensitive and emotionally mature as I imagine Hunter to be, I also think that his attention span cannot be held by a show that focuses on feelings/romance alone. Bro is like "I want SPACESHIPS!! I want SPORT!!! I want POKEMON!!!" There's gotta be some exciting angle to keep him entertained.

Something I'm a little unsure of is what Hunter's relationship is with gore/horror/edgy type stuff. Because we know he was a fan of Ruler's Reach, which was written by an edgelord 8 year old and was packed with gratuitous violence. Considering he was not only a teenage boy (who tend to gravitate towards depictions violence because of societal influence) but a child soldier who was unnervingly desensitized to brutality, it does make a lot of sense. Ruler's Reach also seemed to be something of a masculine power fantasy written by one boy who felt small and powerless in his own life, which connected with a boy who felt similarly. King wanted to be feared, Hunter wanted to be respected.

However, this was during the time that Hunter was trapped in a very bleak situation, one that he didn't even fully understand was bleak. And he coped by hyperfixating on a book that normalized the cruelty.

But what I wonder is, would he still feel the same way about that book now, after everything? He's been woken up to how horrific his life was until this point. He's aware of the atrocities and he's deeply uncomfortable with all of it. Things are drastically different now. Hunter is drastically different.

Personally, I think Ruler's Reach was something that comforted him when he needed it. But as he changes as a person, its just not his taste anymore.

Hunter can certainly stomach gore and violence. He's seen more disturbing sights than anything an anime can show him. But I don't think he actively seeks it out. I imagine that he prefers stuff that's lighthearted. Not that he doesn't enjoy tension/excitement/high stakes. Just not the kind of stuff that will make him extremely upset.

Like Fullmetal Alchemist for example. Absolutely amazing anime, but not something Hunter would enjoy sitting through. It's good to have fiction that makes you feel something deep in your core, the way FMA does to people. But Hunter has experienced enough real life trauma and existential horror for a lifetime. He's felt enough!!! He doesn't need to see that weird fucking dog!!!!! Leave him alone!!!!!

So ya in summary, I think he likes fun, semi-lighthearted stuff. But he doesn't really wanna watch anything that's gonna make him sit in the shower for over an hour and rethink everything. He is already mentally exhausted. He once learned made of a dead guy's bones, that's enough for him.

#i know we were just meant to talk about anime #lots of thoughts here on WHY hunter likes rulers reach #i just have a lot of them

Venus signs (Part 2)

Venus is a planet that tell us about how we show our affection, how we relate, what inspires us, what things we enjoy, where and how we express our love. This planet is ruled by both Taurus and Libra, which means that this planet has the same characteristics as those signs.

Part 1

𝓛𝓲𝓫𝓻𝓪 𝓥𝓮𝓷𝓾𝓼

Idols from left to right: Minhyuk from MONSTA X / Wooyoung from ATEEZ / Nayeon from TWICE.

Libra Venuses love to impress. They have very good manners, are idealistic and treat people fairly. For them, kindness and justice is extremely important to make a relationship work. They are very romantic, they fall in love easily and like to share everything with their partner. Although they like to give and receive in their relationships, Venus in Libra can give much more than they receive and some of them can make many changes in their own lives to accommodate with the need of others. These individuals are very considerate of the feelings of others and try to keep everything in peace, since they don't like fights. They tend to see things from their partner's point of view and can committed to them a little too much. Venus in Libra are sociable, friendly, and they are always looking for companionship and status in their lives. They like to be mentally stimulated and are attracted to people who dress well and know how to take care of themselves. These people have a tendency to look for a partner who looks good with them. They want their surroundings to be beautiful and comfortable, they have good taste and they know how to make people feel at ease. They may seem somewhat superficial for others. Venus in Libra are good at giving advice and hate people who are snob and arrogant.

𝓢𝓬𝓸𝓻𝓹𝓲𝓸 𝓥𝓮𝓷𝓾𝓼

→ ᴼʳ ᵛᵉᶰᵘˢ⁻ᴾˡᵘᵗᵒ ᵃˢᵖᵉᶜᵗˢ

Idols from left to right: Jinyoung from GOT7 / Yuta from NCT 127 / Jisoo from BLACKPINK.

Scorpio Venuses are intense and passionate once they open their hearts. These individuals are extremely loyal and can become quite possessive of their partners. They like to be in control of their relationship, and some can become quite obsessive and extreme when it comes to loving someone. These people like to know the smallest details about you. They are very observant, but they don't like to reveal much about themselves. Venus in Scorpio are known for being very daring and jealous; suspicion is a natural feeling for them when they are not sure about something or someone. These individuals are very cautious about meeting new people and want to have a relationship that transforms them in some way. They are good at keeping secrets and find it difficult to forgive.

𝓢𝓪𝓰𝓲𝓽𝓽𝓪𝓻𝓲𝓾𝓼 𝓥𝓮𝓷𝓾𝓼

→ ᴼʳ ᵛᵉᶰᵘˢ⁻ᴶᵘᵖᶤᵗᵉʳ ᵃˢᵖᵉᶜᵗˢ

Idols from left to right: Giselle from aespa / Sana from TWICE / Winwin from WayV.

Sagittarius Venuses like learning new things all the time and they want someone by their side to help them grow. These people are idealistic, restless, friendly, free-spirited, and excellent at entertaining others. They don't like boring routines, they want to live life to the fullest and they also like variety. They want a partner who appreciates everything they do, their beliefs, their goals, their visions. Getting them to commit is a long-term process that requires a lot of patience and time, as they don't like to feel trapped. When life gets tough in a relationship, they have a strong instinct to run from their problems lmao; these individuals need a lot of space and freedom to be happy. Venus in Sagittarius are spontaneous and honest, and are attracted to people from other cultures and/or adventurous people who like to travel. They also tend to put their partners on a pedestal.

𝓒𝓪𝓹𝓻𝓲𝓬𝓸𝓻𝓷 𝓥𝓮𝓷𝓾𝓼

→ ᴼʳ ᵛᵉᶰᵘˢ⁻ˢᵃᵗᵘʳᶰ ᵃˢᵖᵉᶜᵗˢ

Idols from left to right: Jay B from GOT7 / Yuna from ITZY / Juyeon from THE BOYZ.

Venus in Capricorn are responsible, goal-oriented, and like to be in control. They like predictability in their relationships to fit their cautious personality. They aren't very expressive or demonstrative, but they show their affection through actions. They are practical people who are attracted to serious, mature, hard-working and committed individuals. Capricorn Venuses can be quite conservative and shy, but they don't want anyone to know that. Respect, emotional and financial security, loyalty and protection are very important to them. These individuals are reserved in public, but can be quite affectionate in private. They are likely to be looking for someone who has the same level of ambition as them and would like to have a family. These people want someone they can count on no matter what. They expect their friends to be as responsible as they are and like to help them succeed.

𝓐𝓺𝓾𝓪𝓻𝓲𝓾𝓼 𝓥𝓮𝓷𝓾𝓼

→ ᴼʳ ᵛᵉᶰᵘˢ⁻ᵁʳᵃᶰᵘˢ ᵃˢᵖᵉᶜᵗˢ

Idols from left to right: Seulgi from Red Velvet / Jaehyun from NCT 127 / Winter from aespa.

Venus in Aquarius are open-minded and want to be seen as rebellious, unique, and a bit provocative. They are attracted to unconventional relationships; the more unusual, the better.

They like partners who are also their best friends, and they don't like to show any emotion in public. They often date many different types of people, regardless of social convention. They want others to let them know how interesting they are. Although they fall in love easily, true love can be a little more difficult. Once they commit, they are loyal. They don't like to have a partner who is clingy, as they like to have a little space from time to time. As friends, they may be members of many groups or clubs. Venus in Aquarius are a few steps ahead of society. These people are eccentric and spontaneous. They are attracted to people who are intelligent, progressive and who give them enough freedom to go out with their friends. Marriage may not be their cup of tea. They are curious and enjoy mental stimulation.

𝓟𝓲𝓼𝓬𝓮𝓼 𝓥𝓮𝓷𝓾𝓼

→ ᴼʳ ᵛᵉᶰᵘˢ⁻ᴺᵉᵖᵗᵘᶰᵉ ᵃˢᵖᵉᶜᵗˢ

Idols from left to right: Renjun from NCT Dream / Kim Lip from LOONA / Wendy from Red Velvet.

Pisces Venuses are known to be romantic, compassionate, and highly sensitive. They want to know that their partner loves them unconditionally and they don't care about status, they only care about what's on the inside. They are drawn to those who need help, as they like to save people and also be the ones being saved in some way. They have the ability to pick up on the emotions of others and can adapt to the needs of those around them. These individuals may have a hard time saying "no". It's difficult for them to set some limits and they tend to be taken advantage of by their sense of hospitality and empathy. They are often lonely or disappointed, unless they receive a very clear demonstration of love. They are afraid of getting hurt and may be hesitant to express their own feelings. It's important that they learn to protect themselves. For those who want to win a Pisces Venus heart, you must make the first move. Be affectionate and demonstrative, and always be sensitive and gentle with them.

Weekly Astrology Horoscopes for All Signs October 9-15, 2023 NEW Moon in Libra Solar Eclipse

Tomorrow we have the New Moon Solar Eclipse in Libra October 14, 2023 1:54 pm ET.

This Week's Astrology Horoscopes for All Signs

♈︎ Aries: Conversations change your view and opinion about others and yourself this week. Investigating the details and data can help you figure it out for a new start. Deciphering a secret puts your relationships on a new path. Psychic phenomenon, synchronicities, strange coincidences and dreams are prompting you to think more deeply. Note doubles.

♉︎ Taurus: What other people believe can seem serious but you’re likely to reject vague ideas and ideologies that aren’t backed by real proof. Peer pressure to conform won’t work. Breathing is healing. A new health and wellness routine is worth growing. Body language attracts. A situation between friends can reveal true feelings.

♊︎ Gemini: This is a nice time to enjoy some fun. Learning a new hobby or game, or tapping into talents again or for the first time can get you into a new groove. What other people say could affect your energy this week so be kind to help manifest more of the same. Your wit and charm can help others feel better. Changes in relationships are meant to take you forward with better balance.

♋︎ Cancer: A new chapter in your personal life and at home are beginning this week. The eclipse gives you an extra dose of inner change that helps you balance the past with what’s next. What others may say in jest or with sarcasm will act as a mirror, giving you ideas you can work with.

♌︎ Leo: Words and opinions that come out of nowhere can really get your mind going, stirring up all kinds of thoughts and feelings. Your ability to sense the emotions of your home and family are also heightened. Being a source of balance and security to others, helps you have the same. Listen and read between the lines. What isn’t said may be even more important than what is said.

♍︎ Virgo: Self love and self care are at the front of the line for you now. Taking care of your body naturally can fly in the face of conventional belief to outsource your body to an external authority. Rebellious fashion choices may suit you. People sticking to beliefs that don’t hold any weight can get under your skin. A fresh idea you hadn’t considered can inspire smarter choices in building and balancing your money and resources.

♎︎ Libra: Trust issues could be in the spotlight for you now. What people project is highly revealing. Your senses will tell you a lot more than usual this week. What you believe and wish to believe could flip when faced with practical reality. Gathering information will help you make sense of what seems unbelievable. What window are you closing and what door are you opening?

♏︎ Scorpio: Your strength, will and determination are enhanced. You feel in your element when you are taking charge. Passion and virility increase. Information you decipher can change your goals. You have a rebellious streak that asserts your power. What you say can have a strong impact on on who is listening. The eclipse brings you new beliefs.

♐︎ Sagittarius: The urge to set out on a new path is with you this week. As you set a new intention you will see what types of people are suited for your plans and realize who is not. The way others cooperate in relationships will give you many clues. Peer pressure could get to you, but your own path is the one to be measured for growth.

♑︎ Capricorn: You could feel a strong inner fire of change happening with you this week. Energy in your social life could feel intense. Increased enthusiasm for discovering what is unknown makes you quite a sleuth. Virility is increased. The cooperative approach in your business and career relationships is in focus this week. What truth was revealed? Learn more about natural health and beauty. What are marketing illusions?

♒︎ Aquarius: This week has positive new potential for you. It could be nice to see from a birds eye view. What you believe can manifest. Visualize to see the path. Investigate. Inquire. Ask Questions. Being psychic isn’t for everyone. Explore both sides of issues to get to the truth. Write down ideas that come from your dreams and daydreams.

♓︎ Pisces: How you feel and what you say and do manifests in your relationships. A stubborn view or set of rules can cause rebellion in a loved one. A dream or psychic flash in a daydream could alter your way forward. What you think is set to change which pushes you in a new direction. Expect what was unknown to become visible now.

Thank you for being a friend.

justin and hailey biebers' composite chart houses

7th house: in the composite chart, the composite 7th house governs how you are as a couple, how much you’re focused on the relationship, how you move together as one, and the other people that you interact with together.

gemini 7th house : with the composite 7th house in gemini, you may be a pairing that interacts with others with logic and intellect, analyzing people’s behaviors and reasoning. you can be intellectually stimulating for other people, and may do a lot of analyzing of your own relationship too. it may be difficult for you to see together when you’re being scattered and unfocused, but you may be around others who are.

7th house ruler in 2nd house: meeting: likely to meet in a hedonistic or indulgent sort of place. the mall, the spa, restaurants. can meet an a luxurious or upscale place. meeting in a way where you exchange money or goods. meeting at the bank or a financial related place. person: the kind of person who is sensuous, indulgent or materialistic. someone who is wealthy or has money. someone who is grounded, loyal, possessive, supportive. someone “taurean” or “venusian” in nature. relationship: a relationship involving material exchange. someone who supports you financially. a person who give you gifts and sustains your basic needs. having assets together. being indulgent together. through this relationship you create and experience stability.

lilith in 7th: you bring rebellious and intense energy to this relationship. your need for freedom and independence is so great that you may enjoy a long-distance relationship with each other. even as a couple, you both follow your own passions and pursue your own interests. you’re connected around a shared appreciation for each other’s power, creativity and unique traits. yet you are also both easily able to give each other the space you both need. you may become rebellious or resentful if either partner tries to be too smothering or controlling. you may help each other express your ideas and passions openly without judgment of each other’s unique vision and desires.

8th house: in the composite chart, the composite 8th house shows how we use what we have together and share with one another. this house also governs intimacy and sex, so it can also show how we connect on a physical level in romantic partnerships (in a way that may be different from individually in the natal chart).

8th house ruler in 8th house: you often desire death in your commitment to be blunt. you want every moment to feel heavy, to feel overwhelming, authentic to the bone. as a rule you never get attached until you know it’s the one, you’ve always weeded out the weak and we’re a serial dater-looking for the right match. these natives view commitment as something intense, a holy cleanse. to them giving our heart and soul to someone is one thing but giving them that private aspect, that what is hidden is earned not “given.” years after they commit they’ll still seem like a mystery and they never ever dive in all at once only in pieces and fragments. these natives can often shy away their lovers with their extremes but they’ll likely adore the intense yet prolific passion that exist in every moment. they are intensely possessive and protective once committed not wanting anyone or anything to share in the love they have for you! for them it’s all or nothing, life or death as every cell rushes. sex for them once a commitment is made is all about meeting god and the devil in the same setting.

moon in 8th house: with the composite moon in the 8th house, this can make the emotions of the relationship run much deeper. you may feel like you each bring out the deepest, darkest emotions and issues you have, and it can cause the relationship to feel unsettling and cause more emotional extremes. there is great potential for the relationship to help each of you grow and transform, but you have to deal with the stuff the relationship dredges up for you. this can be a very serious relationship, no matter how casual you want it to be. with the 8th house ruling shared resources and other people’s money, this can be an easier position for a professional relationship.

The King of Dreams has many admirers, but he also has a dating history that’s little more than a series of disasters. So what’s he really like? Here’s what you’re in for if you decide you want a relationship with Morpheus.

Most people who meet him get the impression that he’s cold and remote and cares nothing for the people around him. Nothing could be further from the truth. Being connected to everyone’s dreams means that he has an intimate understanding of what mortals really think and feel, and it also means he has to exercise tight control to keep the universe’s collective unconscious from wreaking all kinds of havoc. What you see is the result of him keeping himself on the shortest possible leash.

We know most of what he was like in the distant past from what others have said about him, since he talks about his life to others rarely and with the greatest reluctance. Many have remarked that he used to be much more casually cruel or prone to harsh vengeance. Oddly enough, others, like the lady Bast, remember him as a close friend, someone to spend time with talking of trivial things and laughing often, and this is the case even though the two were never lovers.

One thing seems clear from all of this: In the past, Morpheus was much more impulsive and open with all of his emotions and reactions, good bad and ugly.

The fact of the matter is that he was hurt and hurt often, and learned how to close himself off as a result. He tends to respond to emotional pain with avoidance above all else. It’s also the case that he takes his responsibilities to the Dreaming very seriously, and he fears what would happen to mortals should he lose control.

What all this adds up to is that he’s extremely prideful. It’s not the sort of pride you get from empty vanity, though. It’s the kind you find in people who are aware that they have great power and that it burdens them also with great responsibility. This pride has led him to be harsh when hurt in the past. The flip side of this is that because one of the things he prides himself on is his honor, if he can be made to understand that he’s behaved dishonorably he will stop at nothing to set things right. His sister Death tends to have the most luck getting him to re-examine his behavior. He respects her and cares for her deeply, so her opinion of him matters a lot to him.

His seriousness tends to make people think he’s humorless as well. This is also incorrect. He often seems to ignore other people’s attempts at humor. One reason for this is that he sometimes misses the joke entirely, either because he just doesn’t get it or because he’s too focused on some goal he’s trying to achieve. Sometimes he ignores it because there are some things he’ll never find funny and won’t dignify them with a response -- for example, he won’t tolerate teasing. Even those closest to him can only get away with the gentlest sort of teasing before his pride leads him to feel attacked.

That said, he does have a sense of humor. It’s rather dry, and you have to know him well to spot it sometimes -- the littlest ghost of a smile from him is practically equivalent to somebody else’s belly laugh. People who love him will tell you that they cherish his smiles all the more for their rarity.

In general, the tight control he maintains over himself in recent times means that you have to really pay attention to his body language closely to understand what he’s feeling. Those tiny smiles, the twitch of a muscle in his jaw, the look in his eyes -- these will tell you a great deal, but it’s easy to miss them if you don’t know what to look for.

Even now with his tightly controlled affect, he craves affection and romance, although he will never admit as much openly to anyone. His past partners have found him to be attentive and passionate. The same laser focus he brings to his goals is also found in his relationships, and he can be a very intense lover. His relationships are one of the few releases he permits himself, so you end up getting a relative storm of emotion from him that others barely suspect exists.

His past relationships have all ended badly and often disastrously, but that’s no reason to believe that being with him is impossible. You just have to be aware of certain things when it comes to having him in your life:

His work is of paramount importance to him. You can’t be the sort of person who sulks when he has to be away a lot dealing with issues in the Dreaming. He really resents feeling torn that way, like he’s being asked to choose between his responsibilities and his loves.

He is deeply prideful and therefore easily hurt. Don’t try to tease him, at least not until you understand his boundaries with fine precision. He needs to feel respected.

He appreciates someone who can match his passion with their own. If he starts to get the idea that your feelings for him have waned he’ll react badly. On the other hand, he’s not the sort of person who will withdraw when you want to lavish affection on him (as long as he’s not trying to do something for his work at the time).

He finds change difficult to accept a lot of the time. He is prone to moodiness and even depression, so you have to be able to be patient with him.

If you need to work something out in your relationship by talking it over, you will have to be the one to make the conversation happen. He’s avoidant when things go wrong. He’s been known to just not talk to people for decades at a time, even the ones closest to him, when something really bad happens.

That he’s a complex and difficult person should not be surprising since he’s an unimaginably powerful cosmic entity, but people tend to react to him as if he was actually the human he often appears to be. This leads to a lot of misunderstandings.

Despite all of his issues, being his partner can be very rewarding. Once you win his trust, he’ll open up to you a lot more, and the longer you prove worthy of that trust, the easier things get. It’s a precious gift to win the trust of a man who so rarely allows himself to trust at all, and he’ll value you highly for it. Once you get him talking, he’s utterly fascinating. Nobody has more stories to tell.

He will defend someone he loves with all his power, and his power is vast. He’ll consider you to be under his protection and there are few entities in the universe that can challenge him, especially on his own ground.

He values creativity and imagination. They are the gifts of the Dreaming and they mean the world to him. He’ll be incredibly supportive of this aspect of your life.

He loves to give and receive affection through touch. He rarely receives loving touch from people in his life, so to be able to share that with someone is special and rare.

It’s also worth nothing that physical appearance doesn’t matter to him very much. He falls in love with people who have compelling minds and souls in his eyes. He finds his lovers beautiful in their totality, not because of anything on the surface. He’s a cosmic entity whose appearance reflects whoever happens to be looking at him most of the time and his powers lie in the inner worlds of mortals, so the physical world is just not that important to him.

He will be thrilled if you enjoy exploring the Dreaming. He’s rightly proud of his realm and he loves to share that with his partner. He’s been known to create dream skerries for his lovers in the past, little pocket worlds in the Dreaming for them to fill with their own imaginations.

Last but not least, if you help keep Morpheus happy, Lucienne will adore you. Library late fees? What library late fees? Having the good will of the person who takes care of practicalities for something as massive as the Dreaming is no small benefit.

Hey! I love your page and your work.

I needed your advice on this. I am in a relationship with a gem of a guy. He's a walking green flag. And he goes above and beyond the bare minimum at every step. He's emotionally mature and wise, considerate, patient, deeply loving, etc. He makes me feel safe. In all- he meets all my standards and then some. We do long distance.

I have been feeling increasingly overwhelmed about this lately. He loves me crazy, to him it's passionate, groundbreaking, lightning-struck love. And i remember feeling all the butterflies and excitement in the beginning, but now I don't see myself loving him with the same intensity as he loves me. And that makes me fear if I love him at all. I come from a past of parental trauma and abuse and i know that my attachment patterns have been affected by the immense trauma I have endured. I remember how intense my first love was, just like in the books and poems and films. It breaks my heart to keep thinking that he loves me the way i first loved someone else. But i don't love him with the same intensity. Lately, I've been feeling a lot more detached due to these thoughts and I wonder if I'm losing interest. But he treats me so well and i don't know if this is just a trauma response or something that's actually happening. I don't "feel" A LOT. My attraction to him varies majorly. It comes and goes. I'm feeling very conflicted. Please help?

Hi love! Thank you so much <3

Let me just say that questioning your interest over time with a long-distance partner is incredibly normal, and feeling safe in a relationship easily sets off alarm bells for many people who have experienced trauma/have insecure attachment styles. So, dealing with both at once sounds like a lot. I commend you for remaining highly self-aware regarding your triggers and emotions.

Firstly, I would do a gut check to see if this man seems like he's a compatible match for you at this stage of your life – not just a super kind and attentive guy (while both are important qualities, but just because someone is a good partner, it doesn't mean necessarily that they're the right partner for you and vice versa).

Second, I would evaluate if you're losing interest in your relationship or if the spark fading due to the physical distance (no to little IRL intimacy or shared experiences). Do you find yourself excited to talk, text, and see him, or do you hesitate/avoid communication with him? Are you in similar life stages? Are your goals, values, lifestyles, and future paths compatible? How long are you planning to remain long-distance if you believe you're still right for one another?

Third, considering your history of ongoing relational trauma, I would consider what your definition of love and a healthy relationship look like. Do you believe passion involves intense or fleeting emotions? Do you thrive in emotionally stable or chaotic relationships? Do you see passion, attraction, and companionship as interconnected or separate aspects of a relationship?

It is perfectly normal to settle from the "honeymoon" phase of a relationship and take those hormonally-charged blinders off to see the "normalcy" that plagues all stable relationships. This stability can be super uncomfortable if you've never experienced it and can make you want to run back to the chaos you're accustomed to. However, in a long-distance relationship, losing this spark is too easy when you see each other much less often in person and especially if you don't communicate frequently or in engaging ways.

My recommendations would be:

Figure out why you're pulling back in the relationship and prepare to have an honest conversation about these feelings with your partner. Maybe also see a therapist or mental health professional about this issue if you have the resources to do so

Once you determine your unmet needs or wounds being triggered in the relationship, start ideating some low-stakes solutions and implement them into your daily/weekly interactions with your partner. If you're missing the frequent physical intimacy or shared experiences that typically exist in romantic relationships, consider ways to foster this closeness again (for intimacy: phone sex, sexting, FaceTime date nights, etc.; for shared experiences: FaceTime date nights, have a couple of long phone call recaps/story-sharing sessions per week, agree to watch some of the same movies/TV shows or read the same books/listen to the same podcast episode and chat about them; create a special photo-bonding activity – whether it's sharing your homemade dinners with each other most nights, a lunch-break selfie, a specific object/location that reminds you of them every time you pass it, certain memes you exchange every day, etc.)

Consider how much effort you're willing to put into making this relationship work. Being honest with yourself about this determination can make all of the difference in your perception on how to move forward (or not) with this relationship

Hope this helps xx

Why Palpatine is autistic (headcanon)

Listen if I was diagnosed as autistic in 15 minutes without diagnostic assessment and by answering "eh, kind of" to 2/10 questions, then this man should be diagnosed ten times over

You can only disagree with me once you've read the whole thing <3

Part 1: DSM-5 official diagnostic criteria

Deficits in social-emotional reciprocity, ranging, for example, from abnormal social approach and failure of normal back-and-forth conversation; to reduced sharing of interests, emotions, or affect; to failure to initiate or respond to social interactions.

This criterium can include a lack of affective/emotional empathy. Also, when is Palpatine interested in the emotions of others beyond how it serves him?

Yes, he does seem socially adept. But this is something you can learn, literally. He's had a lot of training in how politicians act, how to convince people, etc. It's all an act. It's just a more severe form of masking.

And let's not forget: how much easier is social interaction when you can sense the other person's thoughts and feelings through the Force? No need to read their body language at all. You can feel what's going on and what they want to hear

Deficits in nonverbal communicative behaviors used for social interaction, ranging, for example, from poorly integrated verbal and nonverbal communication; to abnormalities in eye contact and body language or deficits in understanding and use of gestures; to a total lack of facial expressions and nonverbal communication.

Masking!! There are many moments with Palpatine where I'm like "ah, that there is very much a conscious expression, deliberately pulling those precise facial muscles, rather than something naturally happening". Same with a lot of moments of intonation.

Also, how often do you see him talk with his hands? When talking, his arms are usually rigidly at his side (or in T-Rex position).

Deficits in developing, maintaining, and understanding relationships, ranging, for example, from difficulties adjusting behavior to suit various social contexts; to difficulties in sharing imaginative play or in making friends; to absence of interest in peers.

This is specifically about equal peer relationships. Yes, Palpatine knows how to do official/business relations. You can learn that in political school or by copying others. There are rules & tactics & etiquette/protocols. But close, personal relationships?

You often see autistics in relationships with power differences, like master-apprentice/dom-sub relationships (in either role). That's a lot easier to navigate than equal peer relationships, which are a lot muddier.

Also, "absence of interest in peers". When have we seen him yearning for close personal relationships?

Stereotyped or repetitive motor movements, use of objects, or speech (e.g., simple motor stereotypes, lining up toys or flipping objects, echolalia, idiosyncratic phrases).

Palpatine does have some frequent finger tapping going on and he "worm walks" (swaying with either legs or upper body, unless focusing on walking straight and/or looking at the ground, like in the third image).

Insistence on sameness, inflexible adherence to routines, or ritualized patterns of verbal or nonverbal behavior (e.g., extreme distress at small changes, difficulties with transitions, rigid thinking patterns, greeting rituals, need to take same route or eat same food every day).

I don't think he has this one.

Highly restricted, fixated interests that are abnormal in intensity or focus (e.g., strong attachment to or preoccupation with unusual objects, excessively circumscribed or perseverative interests).

This is the big one. What neurotypical person would be able to spend every waking moment working on one singular interest (Sith Grand Plan/Dark Side), forsaking social relationships and such? Even passionate allistics wouldn't be so entirely consumed by one thing for years on end.

Palpatine also collects objects related to that interest (the Sith artifacts/artworks).

Once he's emperor he doesn't show himself much anymore but instead spends all day alone studying his special interest.

Hyper- or hyporeactivity to sensory input or unusual interest in sensory aspects of the environment (e.g. apparent indifference to pain/temperature, adverse response to specific sounds or textures, excessive smelling or touching of objects, visual fascination with lights or movement).

First of all, the depression robes from the original trilogy. That's all.

Second, I think in the Star Wars universe "sensory aspects of the environment" could apply to the Force too, in line with hyper-empathy & hypersensitivity. And guess who was born super sensitive to the Force?

Third, no neurotypical person has that kind of interior design. I'm talking about all the red. My guess is chronic under-stimulation, thus needing to be surrounded by a bright color.

Part 2: Miscellaneous/Non-diagnostic autistic traits

Gender non-conformity (always wears dresses and gives off such princess energy)

He often has T-Rex arms and when he doesn't, his arms are stiff by his side (stiff posture in general). When relaxed, the T-Rex comes out.

His father thought he was different from birth, something about Palpatine didn't appear "normal" to him

Autism & pattern recognition + seeing the inner mechanics of systems. This includes social/societal structures. Add in years of analyzing humans and their behavior/psychology. It makes it possible to see relations, predict actions, etc., either on an individual scale or a larger one.

In the same vein, good at analyzing (situations & people)

His father was said to be cruel and violent (in this house the Darth Plagueis novel is still canon, fight me). Autism + childhood trauma can turn quite intense, to put it mildly. In this case: no empathy + no attachment to other humans + learning to read people and situations very well to stay safe + tendency to rigid thinking/intense preoccupation + seeing everyone as an enemy + special interest that involves hurting others, combined with running into a Sith Lord during his formative years? Yeah, all the pieces are there.

Anyway, this headcanon is locked into my brain now and I simply can't unsee it anymore.

Hawks Astrology Headcanons II

featuring: Hawks/Keigo Takami warning: this is purely entertainment purposes. You may have a different opinion but this is mine, thank you. Each placements description might not also be 100% accurate so take everything I say with a grain of salt lol. Rated: 16+ (brief mentions of sex and relationships although not explicit) A/N: Hopefully you will notice and appreciate how organized this one is compared to the previous lol. pt. I | pt. III

Tropical

Mercury in Sagittarius:

Sagittarius-ruled by Mercury people constantly learn new things in life. They are interested in life's meaning and think there must be more to it than what the naked eye can perceive. Keigo has a strong desire to travel because there is so much to learn and experience. Like no one else, he is greatly inspired by adventures, both physical and cerebral.

Mercury is thought to be vivacious, energetic, inquisitive, and intellectual in this aspect. He is warm and energetic, which frequently accounts for his popularity.

Aries Degree: keen intellect, quick-witted, inventive, acute, ironic, sarcastic, observant, intelligent, alert, argumentative, rash, afflictive, restless, exaggerated

Venus in Scorpio:

Scorpio is a particularly intense sign for Venus. This Venus sign desires love and union with the person they are dating. They are extremely devoted and loving, but they have trouble dealing with loss. They could be too possessive for their spouse to manage depending on their level of maturity.

Keigo is skilled at determining the genuine intentions of others since he has strong emotional intelligence and a wide range of emotions. Keigo is a person who is difficult to fool and cannot be easily outsmarted.

He is highly selective about who he confides in because it is difficult to win his trust. Given his upbringing, it is understandable that he struggles with trust and has a deep-seated fear of betrayal. He seeks emotional and romantic self-control. To decide whether someone is a deserving of member of his inner circle, he thoroughly evaluates them.

Taurus Degree: steadfast, romantic, attached, kind, pleasant, faithful, good manners and etiquette, respectful, jealous, possessive, spendthrift, sometimes lazy, generous, protective

Mars in Aquarius:

Those with Mars in Aquarius are intellectual individuals who value independence above anything else. Since they have an original and creative way of thinking, Mars Aquarians can come to the rescue when others are at a loss for ideas.

Keigo is unpredictable and flexible. He actually believes that there is always space for improvement and that nothing lasts forever. Because he is the most successful, he places a high value on the people in his life.

Being with others who share his viewpoints gives him more influence and self-confidence. He is happier and more content when his ideas are accepted and put into action. Keigo finds it challenging to relate to people who don't live their lives in the same way that he does.

Aries Degree: energetic, willpower, courageous, dauntless, positive, enthusiastic, non-conformist, restless, impatient, choleric, violent, adventurous, imprudent

Sidereal

Mercury in Scorpio:

People born with Mercury in Scorpio are surrounded by mystery. Scorpio is a fixed water sign, full of emotions, passion and ambition. I believe Keigo is very mysterious by nature. We see he can play his role as a spy and detective extrodinarily well. He has a curious, inquisitive mind that questions everything around him.

Mercury in Scorpio gives personality and rhetoric that can sometimes seem harsh, honest and aggressive. But Mercury also gives Keigo logical thinking, and while Moon in Scorpio gives unbridled passion, Mercury in Scorpio gives reason and rationality, allowing Keigo’s decisions to be driven by logic rather than by emotion. However, he can oftentimes act impulsively, which he later regrets. Keigo has a burning desire to discover the hidden truths and mysteries of life. Everything he says or writes has a deeper meaning and is often insightful. He tends to use sharp language to express his thoughts. He is very determined when it comes to making intellectual connections and he has a high opinion of himself.

29th Degree: talks too much yet too little, workaholic, strains over every little decision

Venus in Scorpio:

The fixed water sign of Scorpio is ruled by Mars and has a neutral relationship with Venus. Scorpio is a sign of passion and sensuality, and Venus, the planet of love, rules this sign. Venus increases the inhabitants' desire for sex, romance, sensuality, and love when she is in Scorpio. Mars also exhibits violence in romantic relationships, and Keigo is sure he can get what he wants. He is capable of enduring love and loyalty, but when insulted, he stings like a scorpion and feels no remorse for those who betrayed him.

Keigo is typically seen as being very direct and decisive. He has a good sense of what he wants from life. Yet, he tends to be very private about his feelings for the people he loves. He is amorous, yet he can also be very possessive and jealous at times. He is not someone to play around with; he demands genuine commitment from his partners. He has a tendency to be overly domineering and demanding. He can occasionally come out as argumentative.

Aries Degree: warm, sympathetic, exaggerated, extreme, impulsive, hasty, passionate, prodigal, whimsical, adventurous, romantic, striking zeal for romance, romantically energetic and impatient, upfront, honest, enthusiastic, sensual, excessive sexual feelings and attraction, attractive

Mars in Capricorn:

Mars is exalted in Capricorn, a sign that Mars opposes and that is ruled by Saturn. Mars has unrestrained vitality, and Saturn creates challenges. Therefore, those who have Mars in Capricorn struggle to focus their energies in the right directions. Keigo has a sturdy, passive, and hostile personality. He typically maintains a public façade and is reticent, especially in public.

His intellect and physical strength is pretty impressive, yet he lacks the emotions necessary to create relationships and spark life. His perseverance and tenacity won't yield results right now. Despite his difficulties with emotional connection and expression, he excels in his professional life. He is frequently motivated by those in authority above him and prefers to assist others over starting his own companies. Unfortunately, the crucial virtue of emotional satisfaction is completely denied by this placement.

29th Degree: worries too much over possible plans of action and alternative paths to take. Then proceeds to take spontaneous actions against those decisions.

Planets in The Houses

Mercury in First House:

Mercury in the First House brings a person's communication skills into the world, enhancing them artistically, elevating their philosophy, and allowing them to think on a higher level. It inspires others to get out and try new things.

Mercury endows Keigo with an artistic spirit, making him a philosopher and oriented towards a higher level of thinking. Mercury can help anyone understand themselves better. However, despite his intelligence, he can become restless and jump from one thing to another. He can sometimes struggle to focus on one goal at a time.

Venus in Twelfth House:

The Twelfth House is the house of the subconscious mind, dreams, intuition, instinct, expenditure, and secrets. Venus in the twelfth house gives the native boundless creative ability and also makes them very frivolous. Venus in this house enacts charisma, great desires and the control to make those desires come true and live a life of luxury.

Venus within the Twelfth House gives Keigo great artistic energy, which he uses to gain his popularity within the art of heroism. He has tremendous wants and aspirations that push him past the limits. This position will moreover grant him to fantasize of his sexuality; he has a vivid picture of what he wants in a partner and will have endless desires. However, his reality doesn't always match his fantasy, so he may struggle to find fulfillment in a relationship. He can be neglectful and questionable in matters of love and companionship.

On the other hand, Venus gifts Keigo with a tender and compassionate heart. Venus in the Twelfth House gives the greatest pleasure and satisfaction in bed through intimacy and sex. His partner will be kindhearted and supportive, which will bring him jubilation and good fortune.

However extroverted, Keigo relishes in his alone time and solitary work. Through putting in the hard work and taking risks, this position will grant him with many advantages during adulthood. He enjoys fine wine and women, and appreciates fun parties, travel, lavish spending, and a royalty life.

Venus in the Twelfth House is also the most ideal position for accumulating wealth because he will maintain a balance between expenses and income. Keigo's diligence and wisdom will enable him to defend his rights and repel his enemies. The Twelfth House, where Venus' natural and vicariously rules, is where she is most content and happiest. His success in his profession and business increases dramatically as a result of this placement.

Mars in Third House:

Mars in the third house makes natives aggressive, gives a ton of energy to study a variety of topics and multitask, compel a person to engage in romantic relationships, and requires them to spend a lot of time and energy engaging in sexual activities. These indviduals enjoy travel and adventure because of the positive Mars in their third house.

The ability to work hard and earn money is given to Keigo by his attitudes, but communication allows him to express himself in a sharp and startling way that is beneficial to any cause or vocation.

The third house is concerned with a person's unconscious thought patterns, mind, ability to learn and plan, short journeys, writing, and study. Mars encourages inner vulnerability and wildness when it is in this house, which leads to internal turbulence and disruption of his thoughts and happiness. Because Mars is a fast-moving planet, it can cause rash decisions that can cause issues.

It is also the home of sexual desire, and having Mars in this house can make Keigo act in ways that are not considered acceptable by society. Despite his occupation, he would spend a lot of time and effort engaging in sexual activity and developing romatic relationships. He doesn't mind violating the rules and going above and beyond to fulfill his ambitions because the Third House infuses his belief system with a high level of drive.

Because Mars is strong, Keigo is lucky, strong, and attractive. Mars will have mechanical knowledge and courage, help him vanquish his adversaries, and make him an expert in any field if it aligns with the Sun and the Moon. However, it can also leave him feeling ashamed and guilty.

Hey! May i ask an overprotective dad Shura (kotz) finding out that male reader (bronze knight) is dating Hyoga. Maybe he finds them kissing or making out or maybe someone accidentally tells him. Do whatever you’re comfortable with. Thank you! Have a good day/night

Not NSFW for character below 17 or 18, but i can do suggestive or allusion.

I made it more funny than serious, I hope you enjoy it.

Camus was feeling a little strange about the day. Hyoga was more punctual than usual and Isaac seemed to want to distract him from something.

The weirdest thing was that Deathmask seemed to be taking measurements of Hyoga and building something. Milo told him that he was building a coffin.

The usual, everyday stuff. Yeah, he built coffins for his friends; he took great pleasure in making coffins- okay, sarcasm aside, what the fuck was going on?

The answer came in the form of a very angry Capricorn saint. Behind him was his apprentice, who Shura regarded as a kind of younger brother, even a son.

--- Keep your student away from mine --- Shura, always so direct and unhesitating, seemed quite annoyed. Camus looked at the young man behind Shura and then at his two students, who were not supposed to be paying attention to the two saints. He looked more sternly and noticed how Hyoga's cosmos wavered a bit. There, he had found the culprit, now it was his turn to deal with his companion --- First his training and then his horniness.

--- His what? --- Camus looked again at Hyoga, who was giving him competition in terms of killing with his eyes with Shura --- I think there might be a mistake.

--- Boy, show him your leg --- Camus was seriously thinking of taking a vacation, or taking his disciples to Siberia for training to avoid these problems. With a little embarrassment, Hyoga showed the wound on his leg, provoked by the Capricorn saint --- they are only 13 years old, I don't want him near my son, my temple and if I see him again I'll cut off his third leg.

And with that, master and apprentice returned to the temple of Capricorn.

--- What a good relationship they have, he even told him son. --- Isaac commented, watching as both knights retreated into the distance.

--- I know what you are thinking, master --- commented Hyoga looking at Camus, who was waiting for his apprentice's response --- but, my love does not make me any less worthy of my armor and my manhood.

--- Hyoga, no one cares that you're gay --- commented Camus massaging the bridge of his nose --- you're 13 years old, the most intense thing you're supposed to experience is training or a very passionate kiss. Not fucking Shura's apprentice in the house of Capricorn.

--- We were in the dark

--- But you're not even quiet when you sleep Hyoga.

--- Shut up Isaac, don't interfere.

--- Silence me, Hyoga

--- Stop it, both of you… you'll give me a headache.

…….

--- Did I say I'm sorry? --- commented the young bronze knight, looking at his master from behind.

--- like 25 times and like the other 25 times, the answer is the same --- commented the saint arriving at his temple --- What have I always told you?

--- First the training, be well with me and then go out on dates --- replied the young man --- I am no longer a child.

--- But you are also not fully aware of your actions --- the young man knew that the Spaniard wanted the best for him, only that sometimes their views clashed because of their age. --- When I said I was going to let you make your own choices, I meant a balance. Until you reach 18, I can't let you do whatever you want. I know there are still actions you may regret.

--- I think I understand… so, it doesn't make you angry that I like men? --- commented the young man

--- No, in Spain there is all kinds of things, so I'm not surprised at all --- said Shura patting the young man on the back --- now go to sleep, as punishment tomorrow's training will be harder.

--- I was saying that everything was going well.

--- Go to sleep
