Nico Hulkenberg as the Knight of Pentacles:

A man of utmost diligence - he knows what he wants and is relentless in his pursuit of it. He is a hard worker, completing his mission with complete and terrible efficiency. Although his path is long and hard, filled with tasks that might be repetitive and tiring, giving up is not an option.

The Knight of Pentacles, like the Knights of the other suits, represents work, effort, and the responsibility that follows upon the dreams and ideals of the Page. This Knight is the most hard-working, methodical and detailed-oriented character of the Tarot deck. He may not be the most inspiring or creative Knight, but he’ll do the work to get the results he seeks, even if that work is highly repetitive or routine.

DA Veilguard Party as Tellius Fire Emblem Characters

Mostly Radiant Dawn with Path of Radiance mixed in because those are the game mechanics I know best. Nothing here is balanced. And thank you to Serenes Forest for all the Fire Emblem details

Rook:

Class: Ranger, promotes into Vanguard with options of a secondary weapon of bows, tomes, or axes.

So there’s not really a character creation/avatar in Tellius and I want to respect that. That being said, in Path of Radiance, you can choose a secondary weapon at promotion, so that’s where you can choose if you lean more rogue, mage, or warrior (bows, tomes, axes respectively). And depending on which weapon you choose, you would get a different mastery skill (Deadeye, Flare, or Colossus).

Recruitment: Automatic

Base Stats: HP: Okay Strength: Very High Magic: Very High Skill: High Speed: High Luck: Low Defense: Okay Resistance: Low

Until promotion, Rook fights with a sword with high strength and magic so they can use both physical and magical weapons pretty smoothly. The low resistance and luck is a reference to all the bad magical stuff that happens to Rook and around Rook. And the other stats line up pretty much with typical sword unit, but they can improve depending on the promoted weapon chosen (higher speed/skill for rouge, higher magic/resistance for mage, and higher hp/defense for warrior).

Skills: Provoke: More chance of being attacked by the enemy Resolve: When under 50% HP, Skl ×1.5 and Spd ×1.5

I didn’t want to commit too many skills to Rook since it would be heavily dependent on the playstyle, but they would at least start with Provoke and Resolve. Provoke because sometimes it feels like enemies in Veilguard really have it out for Rook of any class. Resolve because that is Rook in a nutshell. They might be hurt, but that only makes them stronger and they hit back twice as hard (especially if Resolve gets them to double the enemy).

~~~~~~~

Harding:

Class: Archer, promotes to Marksman

Recruitment: Automatic

Harding is an archer that’s part of your starting party in both worlds.

Base Stats: HP: Very High Strength: Very High Magic: Very low, but high growths Skill: High Speed: Okay Luck: Okay Defense: Very High Resistance: Very low, but high growths

She starts with poor magic and resistance, but as she grows into her new stone magic, she can improve both stats very quickly with high growth rates. I gave Harding higher defense over speed, which is typically a stat archer wants, because she has a lot of survival skills, both for being a scout and for her unique cooking. Plus with very high strength, she can just one shot enemies (especially flying ones) so no need to double if the enemy is dead.

Skills: Critical +15: Critical rate +15 Deadeye: Triples damage and sends enemy to sleep Cancel: Negates the enemy’s following attack Parity: Ignores both the user and enemy’s Skills, terrain bonus and support bonus

Critical +15 and Deadeye are the Marksman mastery skills and they also fit Harding quite well. Cancel feels like the closes to disrupting an enemy and staggering them from Veilguard, so it matches what Harding’s Seismic Shot and Shred want to do. Parity for her skills as a scout, since I imagine she can get a good lay of the land before attacking so that she can ignore any bonuses for a simple straight shot.

~~~~~~~

Varric:

Class: Marskman

Recruitment: Automatic

Varric is your early game strong unit who starts in a promoted class.

Base Stats: HP: Very High Strength: Okay Magic: Abysmal Skill: Okay Speed: Very High Luck: High Defense: Low Resistance: Okay

He has over all good bases and okay growths, just do not give this man any weapons or skills related to magic. Mid strength because he uses crossbows, which ignores his strength anyways, so he doesn’t need strength as much. High resistance because he is a dwarf, but low defense because of, uh, what happens when he gets too close to a dagger.

Skills Critical +15: Critical rate +15 Deadeye: Triples damage and sends enemy to sleep Gamble: Doubles Critical rate but halves Accuracy

Critical +15 and Deadeye are the Marksman mastery skills. Varric isn’t necessarily a gambler, but he does get himself into high risk, high reward situations, so Gamble felt appropriate. And no other skills because he is your Jagen/early pre-promote that falls off very quickly to say the least.

~~~~~~~

Neve:

Class: Wind Mage, promotes to Arch Wind Sage with knives instead of staves

Since there’s not really any ice mages in Tellius, Wind with its icy animation is the closest I can get. But Neve does get a knife on promotion as a reference to her mage knives in Veilguard and the potential of her dropping her healing skills if you harden her.

Recruitment: Starts in the middle of the map as a green unit and surrounded by enemies. Rook or Varric can talk to her.

You find her among bodies of Venatori when you first meet her, so of course she’s going to sweep the enemies on the map you recruit her (think Pent from FE7 in The Living Legend), which can be a double edge sword in a Fire Emblem game.

Base Stats: HP: Okay Strength: High Magic: Very High Skill: Very High Speed: Okay Luck: Low Defense: High Resistance: Very High

Very high magic, resistance, and skill and high defense as those are stats that would serve her very well as a detective in Dock Town. High strength to get the most out of her knives. Low luck because she feels so unlucky with all her cases going sideways in ways she could never predict.

Skills: Flare: Negates Resistance and user recovers HP equal to damage done to enemy Celerity: Movement +2 Howl: Prevents enemy from moving for one turn when user is attacked indirectly Pass: User can move through enemy-occupied tiles

Flare is the Arch Sage mastery skill. Since a lot of Neve’s Veilguard skills are about slowing down enemies, I gave her Howl even if she can't technically have it in Tellius. And Pass and Celerity because she does a lot of walking around in both friendly and not so friendly territory to solve her cases, so she gets both skills that can improve her movement around the map.

~~~~~~~

Bellara:

Class: Thunder Mage, promotes to Arch Thunder Sage with staves

Thunder and electricity are closely related, so Bellara is a thunder mage in Tellius. She gets staves at promotion to reference her auto-healing skill.

Recruitment: Trapped behind a mysterious barrier as a green unit, you’ll need to interact with a switch near the middle of the map before you reach her. Rook or Neve can recruit her.

Bellara will start the map acting on her own going from device trigger to device trigger until you catch up to her. Rook can recruit her, but so can Neve since Bellara is a big fan of the detective.

Base Stats: HP: Low Strength: Low Magic: High Skill: Okay Speed: Very High Luck: Very High Defense: Okay Resistance: High

Overall, Bellara is a very strong FE mage with many of the class’ weakness, notability being low HP and Defense, though I gave Bellara okay defense because she is a bit bulkier than a glass canon, but she still shouldn’t be on the front lines.

Skills: Flare: Negates Resistance and user recovers HP equal to damage done to enemy Adept: Activates a 2 hit strike Imbue: Each turn, user recovers HP proportional to their Magic stat Miracle: Halves current HP when dealt a fatal strike

Flare is the Arch Sage mastery skill. Bellara’s Veilguard skills tend towards hitting multiple targets or covering an area around an enemy, which doesn’t quite match mechanics in Tellius. So instead, Bellara is hitting an enemy up to 4 times in one phase with Adept, as if she had unleashed a volley of arrows. Technically, she couldn’t have Imbue, but I like it on her because it makes her self-sufficient in a fight. She has Imbue and Miracle because I feel like Bellara, for as open and friendly as she is, can be solitary and not want to burden anyone with her needs, such as being healed in battle.

~~~~~~~

Lucanis:

Class: Assassin

Assassin is a pretty easy class. Lucanis can’t promote like the others, because Assassin is already a promoted class, so instead, he has to reach a high enough level before he unlocks his mastery skill and gets promotion bonuses.

Recruitment: Rescue him from a jail cell near the beginning of the map. You have to use a key to open the door. Rook or Neve could recruit him.

Since you get him before you fight all the Venatori in the Ossuary, you can recruit him early in the map. His jail has one door (that’s not breakable) and no breakable walls. You need to use a key/a resource to open the door as a reference to his personal quest, Inner Demon, where you need to make an extra effort to reach out to him.

Base Stats: HP: Okay Strength: Okay Magic: High Skill: Very High Speed: High Luck: Okay Defense: High Resistance: Very High

Stat spread matches a typical FE assassin. The high magic is for Spite’s influence. There aren’t any magical weapons for thieves in Tellius, but Lucanis can make good use of any skills that require magic. And high resistance of course so he can be a mage killer even in Fire Emblem.

Skills: Critical +25: Critical rate +25 Lethality: Instantly KOs enemy [Doesn’t work on certain enemies] Vantage: User attacks first Wrath: When under 30% HP, Critical rate +50 Smite: Push a unit 2 squares if user’s (Con +2) > unit’s Weight

Critical +25 and Lethality are class skills that suit Lucanis fighting style very well. Vantage because he’s an assassin that strikes before targets even realize he’s there. Wrath is the closest thing I could think of to his Eviscerate skill. Smite, instead of shove, because Lucanis and Spite are both pushing the target.

~~~~~~~

Davrin:

Class: Armour Lance, promotes to Marshall

Davrin in Veilguard uses weapon and shields, so he’s an Armour unit in Tellius. And I gave him lances because in FE it’s a weapon that tends to signify a noble purpose for fighting, and while Davrin might not be a literal knight, he fights and battles for a bigger purpose and cause than himself.

Recruitment: Starts as an allied yellow unit as you rush to save griffon green units. Recruit at the end of chapter.

In Tellius, there are yellow units that you can command but not fully control, which is like how you get Davrin in your party during his recruitment mission, but not full access to his skills and inventory until afterwards.

Base Stats: HP: High Strength: Very High Magic: Abysmal Skill: Very High Speed: Okay Luck: Okay Defense: Very High Resistance: Okay

A strong armor unit with the class’ features and weaknesses. Magic is very low because Davrin does not believe in the Fade (wild fact I love him for) so he wouldn’t have great access to magic, if at all. He does have alright resistance, though, because he is a Grey Warden and that makes him better equipped to handle magical attacks than he otherwise would be. He also gets alright speed for an armor unit because he has to keep up with Assan somehow.

Skills: Luna: Triples Strength and negates enemy’s Defense Guard: User takes damage for an adjacent Buddy Savior: Skill and Speed are not reduced when carrying an ally Counter: When damaged, deals half of received damage to enemy

Luna is the Marshall’s class mastery skill and I think it would play off of Davrin very well. Guard and Savior are both references to his role as front line tank and bodyguard. Counter can be seen as him fighting back when hit or Assan attacking the enemy if Davrin is hit.

~~~~~~~

Taash:

Class: Warrior, promotes to Reaver

Recruitment: Starts as a yellow unit as everyone clears the map of enemies surrounding a dragon. Recruit at the end of the chapter.

Similar to Davin, you get them a little before you actually recruit them, so they also start the map as a yellow unit. They follow your lead, but very much has their own strategy for the map.

Base Stats: HP: Very High Strength: High Magic: Okay Skill: Okay Speed: High Luck: Okay Defense: Okay Resistance: Okay

A little bit of a glass canon, but one that’s very hard to kill because they have so much HP. Doesn’t suffer in any particular stat, so they very good at being what you need them to be in the moment. They also have alright magic so that they can use any skills or weapons based on magic to pretty good effect.

Skills: Colossus: Triples Strength and deals bonus damage = Strength – foe’s Defense Critical +5: Critical rate +5 Daunt: Enemies within a 3 square radius have their Accuracy and Critical rate reduced by 5 Pavise: Negates all damage Paragon: Doubles gained EXP

Colossus and Critical +5 are Reaver’s mastery skills and fit Taash’s fighting style pretty well. Daunt is for the intimidating way they can breath fire and a kind of translation of Dragon’s Roar. Pavise help keeps them alive, a reference to their Fortune Favor skill, and how they know how to properly fight a dragon. Also since I imagine you get Taash later than everyone else, so they get Paragon to help keep up with experience gains.

~~~~~~~

Emmrich:

Class: Dark Sage, promotes to Arch Dark Sage with staves as secondary weapon

Historically in Fire Emblem, dark magic is the most misunderstood type of magic, so that’s perfect for a necromancer. He also gets staves when promoted as Emmrich is one of the team healer.

Recruitment: There's a house on his recruitment map, and if you visit it, he will come out as a green unit to help defeat the enemy, but he will only join the team if Rook or Bellara talk to him.

Emmrich is always eager to help, but for him to join you, I think would require that extra step of talking to him.

Base Stats: HP: Low Strength: Okay Magic: High Skill: Okay Speed: High Luck: Okay Defense: Okay Resistance: High

He might not hit as hard as Neve or Bellara might with their higher magic, but what he lacks in stats, he makes up for in his skills.

Skills: Corona: Negates Resistance and halves enemy’s Accuracy for one turn Discipline: Increases rate of gaining Weapon EXP Reinforce: User can call 3 NPC units to help (can only be used twice per chapter)

Corona is technically not the Arch Sage’s mastery skill, but lowering the enemy’s accuracy feels more in spirit to Emmrich than Flare. Plus he is still bypassing enemy resistance, so he’s still getting a boost from that. Like Taash, he comes to the team a bit later, so Discipline is there to help build weapon rank. Also historically, dark tomes are pretty rare in Fire Emblem, so Discipline helps get his weapon ranks up without spending every tomes. And he is a professor, how could he not have a skill called Discipline. Reinforce is technically is a personal skill of a specific person, but it’s too perfect for Emmrich to not give to him. Just imagine undead instead of Tanith’s pegasus knights.

• …But showing off his wings couldn’t hurt, right? He has six after all. If you needed to get to the other side of town he’d be more than happy to fly you over!

• Nothings too good for you! If Lucifer thinks you’ll want or like something, he’s buying it!

• “I see why you like it, I’d never wanna leave.”

• You’re gonna kill him saying shit like that

╰(*´︶`*)╯♡ 🐌 CAN I GIVE YOU A KITH BECAUSE THIS WAS SO FUN!!!!!

[redr0sewrites]

k. takami nsfw alphabet

🍊 A/n: wanted to do one of these for a long time hehe! also cannot believe this is my first time writing for hawks like,,,,

🍊 Cw: nsfw, smut, marking, phone sex, breeding kink, mutual masturbation, corruption kink, overstimulation

🍊 dividers

A = Aftercare (what they’re like after sex)

the first word that comes to mind is definitely clingy. i think that after sex, especially with someone whom he's very close with emotionally, Hawks is really desperate for physical contact and intimacy. his aftercare game is okay, he'd put in the effort, but he prefers to just relax and cuddle with you and deal with any mess in the morning. i also think he'd prefer to be pampered a bit rather than do the pampering, but if you're too tired i do think he'd take care of you too. falls asleep as close as possible to you, often crushing you.

B = Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)

i think on himself, Hawks struggles a lot with choosing a favorite, but overall i think its his hands. they're a lot softer than the rest of him, since he's always wearing gloves, and he loves that they give you so much pleasure. plus, i think he has like larger hands than most, and they're just very pretty (and he has prominent veins + a bit of hair on his knuckles urgrhrhrhr im deceased). on you, i think he's either a tummy or thighs type of guy. he likes resting on your stomach or thighs because his wings make it difficult to sleep on his back, and he also really enjoys how much your thighs and stomach tremble when you're overstimulated or about to cum. likes leaving hickeys there as well.

C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically)

honestly he'll cum anywhere. if you're just a hookup Hawks is pretty normal about it, he'll use a condom and call it a day, but if he's in an intimate relationship with someone i think he'd really like cumming inside or on your stomach or chest. seeing his cum dripping on your body kinda soothes those weird primal bird instincts he sometimes gets- i feel like he would occasionally get super possessive about cumming on you. he also really likes how wet you get when he's already cum inside a few times and can hear soft squelches everytime he thrusts into you, thats just like an oddly specific turn on of his.

D = Dirty secret (pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)

definitely masturbates to the thought of you, probably even before you officially get together. i don't think he's a big fan of porn, so Hawks pretty much only gets off using his imagination. has probably sneaked a few photos of you in a low cut shirt or tight shorts to use for... later purposes. the embarrassment and shame he feels about violating your privacy only turns him on more. in addition to this, Hawks has a v complicated relationship with morality and would probably get turned on by nefarious or risky acts like public sex or something of the like, simply because it would probably ruin his public image.

E = Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?)

experienced in hookups, but not in intimacy, if that makes sense. like sure, Hawks has slept with people, but hasn't had many long term or romantic partners. all this to say, he's experienced with fucking, but not so much with truly making love. either way, he's talented in getting you off, but probably not talented with specific kinks or holding eye contact n stuff- at least at first.

F = Favorite position (this goes without saying)

basic missionary, mating press, or 69ing. he likes seeing your face and reactions, especially if you're in a serious relationship. however, he's also a certified munch and loves giving head so he drabbles in that as well.

G = Goofy (are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.)

honestly it depends on his mood. sometimes i can see Hawks being very silly and taking it slow, probably when you're more comfortable in the relationship or are feeling especially tired or emotional. however when he's stressed or irritated he's more serious and less prone to joking around. also depends on how you respond, and if his silliness lightens the mood and makes you more comfortable, then he's damn well trying his hardest to please you.

H = Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)

amazing at manscaping. pubes are a little darker than the rest of his hair, probably curl too. he trims but doesn't shave completely, and has a really nice happy trail. probably spends a lot of time on self care,, in addition to this, he probably wouldn't care on whether or not his partner shaves, but would probably have a preference for more hair rather than none.

I = Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect)

at first Hawks isn't great with intimacy but gets better as the relationship progresses. at the start he's mildly awkward and moreso pursuing pleasure than emotional connections, but once he's sure that the relationship is serious than he himself is a lot more romantic. if he truly cares for you than you best believe he's going all out- from rose petals to candlelight, he wants you to know that he cares. i also think he'd be very sweet and considerate during the deed, like even at the start of a relationship he will always make sure he isn't hurting you or making you feel uncomfortable in any way.

J = Jack off (masturbation headcanon)

does it a lot. he has a pretty high libido, and he can't be around you all the time, and while he wishes that he could sleep with you whenever he's feeling horny it can't be helped that some nights are spent with him fucking into his fist instead. like ive said before, he's not a big fan of porn and would prefer to jack off to you or photos of you. HUUGEEE on phone sex and mutual masturbation, especially when he's away on hero business, and its so hot to hear him rasping and whimpering into the speaker about how much he misses you and wishes you were there.

K = Kink (one or more of their kinks)

starting off strong, definitely marking. loves to mark you and be marked himself. wears hickeys with pride. also big on overstim, both giving and receiving. its just super hot to him to watch you squirm, but also likes to be fucked dumb as well. mild corruption kink, especially if you're super inexperienced, because most of the time he's probably the more experienced person in any sexual relationship. likes flustering you a lot. some more include praise, especially receiving, and also sensory play, both giving and receiving

L = Location (favorite places to do the do)

prefers the bedroom, but would also not mind public sex or perhaps in a cramped space. likes the risk, but it's so inconvenient, especially with his wings. also a fan of bath or hot tub sex

M = Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going)

lots of things. gets really horny around spring, again, bird instincts, but most of the time it's just you simply existing that gets him going. really likes seeing you in revealing clothes, especially when you're intentionally trying to tease him. big fan of thigh highs or garters, and crop tops that show your stomach. also when you touch his wings or feathers. that is probably the quickest way to turn him on.

N = No (something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)

i'd say hawks is pretty experimental, but wouldn't want to do anything that he thinks would hurt you too much or make you uncomfortable. i also think he'd be ehh in terms of wax play or fire play for obvious reasons unless you really truly wanted to try it out, but other than that i think he's down for anything you would like to try. i also think he'd be against blindfolding himself or covering his eyes in general, as it reminds him of how the commission used to train him

O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)

giver giver giver. as much as he loves receiving, Hawks fucking LOVES to give head, he's absolutely a certified munch and whether or not you have a pussy or dick he's sucking and slurping like its his last meal. loves how you taste, loves when you grind your hips against his face and chin, loves when you cum in his mouth, loves when your thighs squeeze his head. also fucking loves facesitting. please just let him drown between your thighs...

P = Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.)

honestly his pace varies. when Hawks is pissed off he tends to be a lot rougher and filthier, but he also has a really soft n gentle side too. it depends a lot on how he's feeling and how you're feeling in the moment. i do think he has a lot of stress, especially prewar!Hawks, and so that definitely leads to a lot of rough sex. i also think he likes savoring the moment though, and obviously he loves you a lot so he wouldn't want to hurt you. sure, people say he goes too fast for his own good, but he's more than willing to slow down for you.

Q = Quickie (their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)

loves them. any and every chance he gets, Hawks is more than willing to fuck you. overall the mixture of both risk and passion is very appealing to him, and since he's often super busy, he appreciates any sex you can hve that fits your respective schedules. fifteen minutes before an important meeting? sure, he's got time to spare- he'll sit you on his desk and eat you out/suck you off until your seeing stars with a few minutes to spare.

R = Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.)

definitely big on risk, and is willing to try anything you want to try. however, a lot of his preferences depend on you rather than himself, and so he's also fine with being pretty vanilla in the bedroom as well. really likes teasing you in public or inconvenient places tho,,, half the hero community has caught you both making out at least once or twice

S = Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?)

out of all the Bnha men he probably has the highest stamina. not only can he last a while, but he doesn't take long to recover after an orgasm. and, in addition to this, more often than not he's focused much more on his partners pleasure than his own so i really see him being determined to make you cum at least three times, if not more. overall he's got great stamina and he's very focused on your pleasure soo,,, A+ partner

T = Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?)

probably never really thought about using toys on himself, at least until he started sleeping with you. you introduce him to a bullet vibrator and he cums so many times he's shaking n whimpering. when it comes to you, he loves using toys on you to tease you, but prefers to actually get you off using his own body. doesn't mean he won't use them, but prefers to make you cum himself. has a trusty pair of handcuffs that he uses a lot though

U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)

ohhh all the time. teases you both in public and in private, sometimes when he's not even horny and just for his own enjoyment. teases you a lot in the bedroom as well, and just. loves seeing you squirm. teases you a lot with his feathers too- like you'll be taking a casual stroll when all of a sudden a slim red feather is sliding under your shirt to rest against your chest,,,, how odd! i also think Hawks would tease you a lot unintentionally? like he's rubbing your thigh while he's driving or pulling you into a kiss by the neck and then wondering why you get so hot n bothered. his hand placement is peak, he's incredibly flirtatious even when he doesn't mean to be, and overall he's just. a huge tease. he's a total hypocrite though because Hawks gets soo pouty when you tease him. he's like miraculously surprisingly easy to fluster simply because he's not used to being the one on the receiving end.

V = Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)

when he's more dominant i don't think he's as vocal as when he's submissive. when he's domming i think you'll hear a lot of groans and dirty talk but overall he's relatively quiet, however when he's subbing he moans and whimpers a lot. i also think he talks a lot during sex, like he babbles about how hot you are and how good he feels even when he's more dominant

W = Wild card (a random headcanon for the character)

his wings/feathers + back are very sensitive and a huge erogenous zone ! they're also very expressive and if you watch his wings a lot, it's easy to tell when he's worked up or horny simply because of little tells he has. however they can also be ticklish sometimes, so occasionally during sex he gets a little giggly because the its both pleasurable but also. hes ticklish.

X = X-ray (let’s see what’s going on under those clothes)

he's big, and very pretty. i'd say at least 7 inches, maybe 7.5 when he's hard. he's got a few prominent veins on the underside of his cock, and a very nice happy trail too. his tip is also a very nice shade of pinky brown.

Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?)

his sex drive is pretty high, not insanely so but to the point where he tries to sleep with you at least once a week, but if you're sex drive is very low he's fine with compromising. if you're sex drive is higher than his though? you're absolutely blessed because he's more than willing to fuck wherever and whenever. a personal hc of mine is that Hawks is like especially horny during the spring... bird mating season.... so be prepared. i just think its kinda funny

Z = Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)

honestly it depends on how quickly you fall asleep. if you want to clean up before going to sleep and get some aftercare done, then sure he'll stay up, but if you want to stay in bed and cuddle and leave the mess till the morning... well he's out like a light.

i love these type of hcs SO much, i have another set for shigaraki and touya on the way.... anywyss ! hope u enjoyed!! PLS SEND IN BNHA REQS RAHH

(unedited) captain price nsfw alphabet with p-links, 𝒶⸺𝓏

𝒜 = aftercare (what they’re like after sex) : john, as i've stated before, is very touchy. he likes having his hands on you in any way that he can. so he'll pull you to his chest as the two of you catch your breath and run his hands along your body, pressing kisses to the crown of your hairline. you usually end up dozing off before john does and so he takes the initiative to grab a warm, damp cloth and clean up the mess of cum between your thighs. after he's done, he'll hop right back into bed and pull you flush to his body, sliding his hands along the expanse of your thighs and counting each beauty mark and mole along your body in the dim lighting of the room until he eventually falls asleep. [connected to this post and this one as well!]

𝐵 = body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s) : john's favorite body part of his would have to be his hands. they're big and calloused from work and he enjoys gently grasping your hips with them when he pulls you in for a slow kiss. he also adores how much you love them as well, his hands swamping yours whenever the two of you interlock fingers with each other. now john has an obsession with your lips, for him, they convey your emotions much better than words ever could. he can tell when you're annoyed with him by the purse of your lips. can tell when you're feeling shy by the slight upturn of the corner of your mouth. can tell when you're being sassy and sarcastic with the cute smirk that'll grace your lips and also when you're feeling sad by the way your lips curl in on themselves to form a line, and perhaps that's not a body part but it's his absolute favorite.

𝒞 = cum (anything to do with cum basically... i’m a disgusting person) : john's cum is pearl white in color and it's sticky and thick and there's always so much of it when he cums for the first time. the taste of his cum is slightly salty but it's not overbearing, you love the taste of him. price prefers to cum inside of you rather than anywhere else, this only started after john saw you holding your friend's newborn baby in your arms, it's been john's mission to impregnate you since then. [connected to this post!]

𝒟 = dirty secret (pretty self-explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs) : it's no secret that john is older than you, there's an obvious age gap and some people may sneer at your relationship (as you're in your mid to late twenties and john is thirty-seven.) during playful banters between you and john, your go-to "insult" is always, "old man", "yes, daddy." or something along those lines. and despite himself, price always finds that he's thick and hard in his pants. he won't ever tell you that though.

𝐸 = experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?) : okay, price isn't the type to sleep around, he's had some occasional flings here and there, but that's about it. that doesn't mean he's inexperienced though, john puts in work. he studies your reactions and what you like. a delicious roll of his hips has him hitting that spongey little spot inside of you. licking his thumb before planting it on your clit to rub quick figure eights, has your thighs shaking and his name falling off your tongue like a prayer, and whispering lewd things in your ear and kissing you all sloppily in his pussy drunk state? has your cunt leaking all over the place. john price knows how to fuck and make love, he's perfect.

𝐹 = favorite position (this goes without saying. will probably include a visual) : hm, john's favorite position is called the 'g-whiz' it's a stupid name lowkey but it gives him the perfect view to watch your face as you fall apart over and over on his cock. it also gives him access to your g-spot and your clit as well. three birds with one stone (he loves watching your tits bounce too.)

𝒢 = goofy (are they more serious in the moment, or are they humorous, etc) : it's a mix. there are times when the two of you are going at it like bunnies and perhaps bump heads a bit too hard. or maybe one of you trips while pulling off a piece of clothing-- there's going to be obvious laughter. during softer sex, where john's thrusts are deep and rolling, slow and intimate--- his gaze is always so full of his adoration for you and it leaves you breathless at times. he kisses gently, whispering words of love to you and smiling at the tears that sting your eyes. so yeah, he's a mix.

𝐻 = hair (how well groomed are they, does the carpet match the drapes, etc.) : john, before he met you, wasn't really sexually active, and so he didn't keep up with grooming himself, there was no need for him to. he was out in the field for weeks on end at a time and when he was off the field all he wanted to do was relax and sleep as much as he could before he had to go back out for another mission. after he met you, however, he wanted to groom himself. not that you seemed to care, nor had you ever complained. but he did it anyways. so, price's hair is brown, nicely trimmed, with no scraggly hairs in sight.

𝐼 = intimacy (how are they during the moment, romantic aspect…) : please, john is madly in love with you and he himself knows it and he loves to make it known to you often, even outside of sex. price loves keeping eye contact with you, whether it's through a mirror, while you're riding him, or in any other position that allows the two of you to be face to face. he loves watching the small ticks in your expression as he grinds his hips into yours, cock sinking into you at the most excruciatingly slow pace he's ever gone. loves the way your cheeks flush and your cunt squeezes him when he calls you his, "pretty girl." this man also says 'i love you' often, and it's always so genuine, you never grow tired of hearing him say it. (he definitely doesn't kiss your chin when you give him an annoyed pouty look at his slow pace, he definitely doesn't apologize and speed up either.)

𝒥 = jack off (masturbation headcanon) : i find it hard to picture price masturbating, but i believe he does so when he's away from home for weeks on end, but it's not mindless masturbation like most men are prone to doing. john, when he's away from you for long periods of time, gets almost…needy?? in a way. this man misses you like no other, he misses the smell of you, your loving touches, your smile, your cooking, you pulling him to the living room floor to dance, your horrible singing when the two of you shower together and god he misses the sound of your voice. and this feeling is all so new to him and it's almost overwhelming. 

so when price has the downtime, he calls you, it's a spur-of-the-moment call and when you pick up, he can hear the thickness of sleep in your voice; he feels selfish and a bit foolish, he was acting like a horny teenager. however, after hearing the excitement in your voice and the surprise, he can only smile and ask how everything has been at home. who would've thought that the sound of your voice, all sleepy and soft would get him hard and thick within his cargos? who also would've thought that john price would unzip himself to pull out his rigid cock, tip leaking with pearlescent pre-cum and pulsing in his large hand. yes, john ends up fucking his fist to the sound of your voice, humming and grunting softly to signify that he's listening to you, thighs tensing and heart hammering in his ribcage. i mean, what you don't know won't hurt you.

𝒦 = kink (one or more of their kinks) : hear me out, roleplay, please! wait, think about it, perhaps it's not full-on roleplay but it's something of the sort, john gets a raging boner when you call him 'captain price' mockingly or 'sir'. another would have to be breeding, john wants to knock you up so bad it's almost an obsession, would love to see you swollen with his child, most definitely says something along the lines of. "good girl, wan' t'get you pregnant so bad. you'd like that, hm?" during sex. a mild voice kink? loves the sound of your voice and almost always cums instantly when you beg him to fill you up.

𝐿 = location (favorite places to do the do) : don't really see john being too much of an exhibitionist but the two of you have had sex outside at a park, while on a picnic. you had crawled into his lap and kissed him softly, pleadingly, blinking your pretty little lashes at him and i mean; who is he to say no to your greedy little cunt? however, he prefers to do it in the comfort of your shared home. ♡

𝑀 = motivation (what turns them on, gets them going) : your teasing. whether it be playful or sexual it always riles price up. it's one of the many things that he loves about you, your sense of humor. and you express it well, not just through your actions or your words but also through your eyes, they're always so expressive and glittering with light mischief that he can't help but sweep you off your feet, throw you over his shoulder, and carry you into the bedroom.

𝒩 = no (something they wouldn’t do, turn-offs) : hurting you in any way, there are some things he's a bit lenient on if you like it; like choking and light slapping but other than that, it's a no for price. man loves you too much to do anything of the sort.

𝒪 = oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc) : as much as john loves having his cock buried down your throat, watching as you stare up at him with tear-stained cheeks, your mouth and chin covered in spit and his cum— he enjoys eating you out. he loves the taste of you on his tongue, loves to overstimulate you, loves to control your orgasms, loves to hear you beg and roll your hips on his tongue. if john could he'd spend the rest of his life buried between your thighs, large hands gripping the fat of your hips to keep you still as your thighs quiver and your pussy pulses from being too sensitive, he would. well shit, i guess that should be one of john's kinks too then, huh?

𝒫 = pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.) : price is usually slow and sensual, with fervent deep strokes, tender kisses, and whispered murmurs of love. what can he say? he loves showing that he loves you in all that he does. however, on the days when he comes home after a mission gone awry or being away for a long time in general, he's gonna be fast and rough; using your body any way he pleases. on days like this, he prefers you in 'doggy style' or even the 'mating press', and immediately gives you cuddles afterward though, telling you briefly of his mission as you run your hands through his hair. ♡

𝒬 = quickie (their opinions on quickies rather than proper sex, how often, etc.) : hm, john isn't one for quickies, i mean he doesn't mind a quickie, the park sex that the two of you had was a quickie after all. but i believe he much prefers proper sex, that way he can pull orgasm after orgasm from you and take his time as well. 

𝑅 = risk (are they game to experiment, do they take risks, etc.) : john is down to try something at least once, especially if it's something that you want to try. not too long ago, you handcuffed price to the bed and edged him until he had literally begged you to let him cum, it was quite the sight and he's down to do it again. 

𝒮 = stamina (how many rounds can they go for, how long do they last…) : give this man two good rounds, and then he's tuckered out. however he doesn't mind if you're still reeling to go, he'll pull you onto his lap and let you ride him until you're sated. or even make you ride his face, he could never deny you anything after all. 

𝒯 = toy (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?) : y'all hear me out once more....vibrating panties. rahhhh, hold on hold on. you guys use it when you're out on walks, at restaurants and sometimes even at dinners with your friends. man gets bricked up at the sight of you squeezing your thighs together, breathless and completely out of it. however, in the bedroom, price is all you need, the man is much better than any toy.

 𝒰 = unfair (how much they like to tease) : teases you often, whether it be with overstimulation, ruining your orgasms, or even having you beg him to let you cum. the man, believe it or not, likes to see your eyes water and your lips pout. loves that he can get his sassy, fiery wife all squirmy and pleading with just a few strokes of his tongue. 

𝒱 = volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make) : john is not shy, he'll tell you how good you're making him feel, not with just his deep, guttural groans, but also with words. price is the king of dirty talk and he does it unknowingly, he most definitely curses when he's moaning as well, drawn out 'fucks' and at when your pussy squeezes him tight, he'll say. "shit, sweetheart y'r pussy s'made for me." calls you the lewdest names known to man, but says it so lovingly that you can't help but be turned on even more than you already are.

𝒲 = wild card (get a random headcanon for the character of your choice) : has definitely had you suck him off while underneath his desk while on a computer call with laswell. poor baby, his face was pink from holding in his moans, especially after you buried him to the hilt down your throat. totally didn't get caught or anything.

𝒳= x-ray (let’s see what’s going on in those pants, picture or words) : the picture speaks for itself. ♡

𝒴 = yearning (how high is their sex drive?) : you guys, price is 37, atp? he's 40, it may not be as it used to be when he was younger but! he puts in the work and most times tires you out before he tires out.

𝒵 = zzz (… how quickly they fall asleep afterward) : it takes awhile for price to succumb to sleep, no matter how tired he is. so it's usually you falling asleep first. he lays there, holding you close and running his hands along your back and then further. he'll drift off to the sound of your slow breathing and the steady rhythm of your heart.  ♡

WOOO PARABLE!!!! redesign yay!!!!!

im gonna go more in depth for exemplum and parable's redesigns in this post -- it'll be under the cut!

DISCLAIMER!!! this is NOT to bash CS.MT or their designs at all! this is all something i did for fun and nostalgia/love of the AU.

——————

when first sketching out some design ideas for the two, i had long forgotten they were redesigned by CS.MT themselves in 2021! these designs are a HUGE upgrade from the old ones, but i do think they could be better from a character design standpoint.

this is the two parable designs by CS.MT side by side. the one on the right is absolutely a huge improvement, and honestly, the one i have the least changes to.

in my redesign, i brought back the original crow elements the first one had, since he's meant to be based off one. i gave him back his black wings with lighter speckles, along with the addition of crow feet/legs! i thought it was pretty cool that his 2021 design has bird feet, but they're chicken feet, not crow feet. which, doesn't make much sense when considering the animal he's supposed to be based off of. it also appears that his legs have two sections, instead of three? i can't exactly tell with the pants, but i tried to make it more obvious his legs are three bones instead of two.

i also have an issue with the piece of fabric covering his tail feathers. the tail feathers are very important for flying, allowing birds to keep balance and steer themselves in the air. so, draping a thick fabric over it doesn't make sense to me. i kept the drapery around his waist, just removing the back fabric.

i decided to change up their other clothing a bit as well! i made the browns more saturated, which is just a personal preference, since i love warmer colors. i added back the swirls in his original design onto his pants, since i thought they were really cute and added visual interest! i also gave him a belt with the colors of their vials, just to add more color to his design. honestly i couldn't find a way to properly include his vials being on them without it looking funky, so i imagine he would keep them at their nest to be safe.

i also added pockets to the belt for them to collect shiny things! crows love shiny things, so i think parable would collect them and bring them back to the nest he shares with the crows.

that's really all i have to say for parable -- other parts should be self explanatory!

now, moving on to exemplum. his design is the one i had the most issues with.

the 2021 design is definitely an improvement in aesthetics, pose, and general outfit design -- however, the character design itself does not convey what it should.

exemplum is meant to be based off a moon jellyfish, a vibrant blue sea creature. he's also meant to live in the water, for the majority of his life. neither the first or second design convey that very well with the dry-land clothes, however, i do think the first design is better in a way.

the colors & shape language of the clothes say "jellyfish guy who lives in the sea" more than his new clothes. i like the way the top poncho (?) piece of clothing resembles the jellyfish's dome, while the strings trail out like it's stingers. the swirls also remind me of ocean waves, as well as the wavy eyelight and eye strings. in comparison, the newer design feels a lot more bland, and the only thing that could possibly tell you he's meant to be a jellyfish creature living in the sea is the arm strings—which, if you know about error sans, could come across as anything but jellyfish stingers! this is not a good thing, unless that was possibly the point of the design? though, i don't think it was.

this is my redesign of him!

first thing that i HAD to change was the arm strings. i made them into actual jellyfish stingers, with long frills and shorter strings at the top (in reference to the moon jellyfish itself!). i switched his eyelight back to the swirly one, as well as his eye strings.

moving on to the clothes, these desperately needed a massive overhaul. exemplum lives in the sea, meaning he would NOT wear a lot of fabric, since there's no need to & it would be a huge inconvenience while swimming around. i removed the bandages too, since those didn't make any sense to me either. i gave him a pair of loose-fabric pants that he stitched together himself instead, as well as a rope belt and some gold chains for decoration. i added back the vibrant blues and swirls of his old design onto his pants, to resemble the ocean waves. since i removed his scarf, i instead put the "assasin" symbol as a tattoo on his sternum!

i also changed up the colors of his bones a little, making them more purple-pinkish to mesh together better. i made the colors much more vibrant than his 2021 design, because i think they look really cool with underwater creature designs! they're meant to serve as a warning to other creatures as well, to not mess with him, similar to how poisonous animals are typically brightly colored.

to top this off, i gave him spotted turtle feet! they are semi-aquatic guys that can live on both land and sea, so i thought that would make sense for exemplum instead of having normal skeleton feet. plus, if parable gets animalistic feet, i think exemplum should as well :-) just for fun, i gave him a turtle tail, too.

here are the two redesigns side-by-side!! if you have any thoughts to add, feel free to!! i'm very happy with how these came out.

Exemplum & Parable by CS.MT

[my-rose-tinted-glasses]

So we’ve been talking about tropes these last couple of days thanks to @abstractelysium super fun tag game. And although I did my three, since then I’ve been thinking about what is probably my favourite trope, although I never thought of it as one. But then I started thinking of more examples, and there are a lot of them, and also thinking that we have so many tropes about how they meet and fall in love, this is just another one. And if this has already been pointed out as a trope or has a name and I somehow missed it please correct me. And I guess some of these can also be put into other tropes, like enemies to lovers or friends to lovers, but to me, at their core, they start at that small gesture of kindness.

Because he was kind.

If someone comes up with a better name for this I'm open to suggestions. I suck at titles. There are more examples of this so I'm choosing the ones I think exemplify this more for me and also trying to get shows from different places. I guess this trope is pretty self explanatory, and although there is no shortage of kind boys in bl, I'm focusing on the cases where there was a past moment, where one of them was kind to the other and it planted a seed. Regardless of what happened after.

Takara no Vidro

Takara consoling Taishin when he was sad because his bird died was what started it all. He was shown kindness from a stranger and would follow him everywhere after that.

Cherry Magic

This applies to all versions of this show. Adachi showed kindness to Kurosawa and allowed him to be weak and so the epic crush would begin.

We Best Love

Despite the enemies to lovers thing, Gao Shi De's crush started because Shu Yi showed him kindness when they were kids. 

About Youth

This could apply to both couples on this show. With the main couple kindness is the whole reason Qhang falls for Ye Guang. And then he falls right back pretty much for the same reason. And Ray falls for Ah Jian because of what he did for him that day. Everyone is just really kind in this show, ok?

Love Mate

He tied his shoes (I also love this btw) and gave him his lost card and wished him luck. Haram was lost right there.

Dangerous Romance

The umbrella that started it all.

Old Fashion Cupcake

This one is on both sides. First because of the talk Nozue gives Togawa after the interview and then Nozue can't help but fall right back after Togawa was so kind to take him by giving him a crash course staying young. I do love them so...

I Became the Lead in a BL Drama

"To be able to love or like something so much is wonderful. That's why I can't wait to play this role." And, just like that, a perfectly normal obsession crush began. I miss them. Can't wait to see them again.

Only Boo

Was there anything Kang didn't do for Moo? Starting with the toothbrush and then continuing to feed him so he wouldn't starve. I adore these boys.

I'm gonna stop for now and maybe do a bigger list at some point. But if everyone can think of other examples please tell me. I'm gonna add this trope to my spreadsheet, so I need all the shows!!!

[archive-professional-jaywalker]

Due to recent posts, I feel compelled to share some ways I know avian nonhumans around me (and me, obviously) have customized their way of living (whether it is body modification, clothing styles, wording, social changes, etc) to feel more appropriately avian. I personally have complicated feelings on calling myself specifically transpecies due to my disatisfaction with current ways of appearing nonhuman societally, but these are, for all intents and purpose, currently available things to transition to Bird, i suppose.

Physical (as in, non-clothing related, direct body modification or training)

Tattoos. This is even more common with my reptilian peers, but i've seen a few birds use tattoos to feel like themselves. I've seen one particular individual with beautifully tattooed talon-scales, but wing tattoos or feathered patterns are also common.

Shaving. I've done that for a time, but stopped since my own body hair is not the most visible. I've met a few birds who'd rather have a nude body than hair, due to the mammalian connotations.

Bird call training / voice training. Met a decent amount of birds who trained themselves to be able to do calls. A syrinx gives a tone that's alas hard to copy with a larynx, but being able to reproduce bird calls through wistling or other methods is common! Still personally perfecting my ability to beak-clack ahah, that one has been tricky.

Nails. This one could go here or in the clothing related section, depending on if you file your natural nails into talons, or simply apply fake talons on your natural nails, but it's also something i'm considering. I prefer filed nails for work, but I'd enjoy having one hand with full talons. Might be a goal to find a way to do it this summer actually for me.

Dyed hair and body hair. More common w/ just the hair, but particularly amongst bright colored bird and dymorphic birds i've found a real liking for hair dye. I'm a more dull species, but I enjoy dyeing my hair bright pink during nesting season, it makes me feel more bright-esque and "adult", as the dull nakedness of human skin feels very hatchling-like for me. But i've also seen people reproduce their plumage through hair dye!

Physical exercise and muscle training. I've seen a lot of variants! One i've seen is the training of pectoral muscles as an analog to wing muscles / the feeling them on a keel. Generally met birds who enjoyed staying in good physical shape and who considered that bird-like.

SRS / Top-surgery. This one REALLY varies with gender identity, but i've met a decent amount of birds who prefer a flat chest without breasts (mammalian trait) and who prefer no external genitalia (cloaca-analogue). It's my case, and I would in fact consider top surgery if it becomes available to me. Currently, it's difficult. I would tentatively put hormone therapy here potentially, but I've actually seen less birds talk about hrt compared to mammals, as it tends to intensify mammalian traits. But it's very possible some birds are on hrt due to species euphoria.

Clothing-related

Cloaks and other wing-like items. Self explanatory ! Lots of birds enjoy the weight-feel of something that feels like wings. I personally own a wing shawl by shovava, but i've seen hoodies, i've seen feathered shawls, etc. I find this item a bit hard to wear in my everyday life personally, and it doesn't fall quite right for me to feel it as wings, but perhaps some day i'll find something that feels more right for me in this category.

Color-coded outfits. Whether it is purely to match plumage, or a gender-marker, it's very common for birds in my experience to use clothing as a replacement for feathers. It is my case. I feel plucked without clothing, and tend to prefer to be clothed. it feels natural, and I use strong contrasts, bright accents, and a general black color scheme as a Bright gender marker. I deviate from a roadrunner's natural plumage, but it feels more affirming for me. One fun thing i'd like to acquire is scale pattern leggings and gloves, so i can have proper scaled talons under my shirt / pants.

Accessories. This varies greatly depending on species. I've met birds of prey who wear falconry items, i've met birds who wear bird tags bracelets, a lot of birds wear feather pattern accessories or generally bird themed stuff to reinforce their association with birds overall... Kind of a really wide category that will wildly depend on what you are and what you like to wear, but very versatile. I'd like a bird tag, maybe! It'd be fun. but i feel like i need it to mean something, so it'd probably be an item i'd wear only if i have something to tie it to. for now, i'm an untagged bird, ahah.

Contacts. This one is twofold. Birds often rely on eyesight a lot. I'm very nearsighted. Wearing contacts, and getting back to a normal human vision feels,,, a bit less ironic than a bird wearing glasses, so i tend to prefer it. It doesn't point out my nearsighted-ness as much. However, there's also a lot of nonhuman looking colored contacts out there! They are GREAT for actually getting an external "that person is nonhuman" response from people, as it is a very recognizeable marker of Something not being quite right. I don't have access to custom contacts, so i simply use white iris contacts for that nonhuman look, but they've been very affirming for me.

Fursuits, masks and gear. This one has a tendency to get in the way, but very obviously, realistic masks, talon gloves, feathered tails, and all that is a great way to look nonhuman. I currently have two masks in my collection, one by ligris cybernetic, and one by dragonartist15, both 3D printed. I recommend the second for any bird mask needs. They're hard to wear very often, as they are often a bit bulky, and I personally find it kinda feels uncanny to not actually "feel" the limbs through the prosthetic, but it's still a very good option, if a bit pricy.

Sensory deprivation gear. This one is more about the mental than the external appearance, but I know a few falconry oriented birds who enjoy having sensory deprivation items on their person while traveling or simply resting, as it mimics for them the hoods or cages of a bird who's not working. Noise cancelling headphone is one i've seen a lot.

Jewelry. Mostly either corvid related or bright related ahah! I've seen a few birds who really relate to the thieving magpie archetype and like wearing a lot of shiny things as a corvid-thing. I've probably seen other birds do it, but i associate it the most w/ them.

Skill related

Bird Jobs. Birds do not escape the rule of a lot of therianthropes and other nonhumans feeling somewhat "domesticated" due to their condition as bird in human society. A few birds I know actively pursue jobs that feel bird-like. After all, theriform birds can very much have jobs, be it falconry birds, messenger pigeons, guard geese, or cormorant fishing. I've met at least one bird of prey pursuing aviation to fly a jet, a lot birds who decided to work with birds in their jobs as a sort of "ambassador animal" (whether it was research, veterinary sciences, etc), corvids who embraced the spiritual connotation of their kind in popular culture, I personally pursue entomology partially because, well, i've got a predatory instinct toward insects and just enjoy catching and id-ing them due to this. In general, a lot of animal people take jobs that connect them with nature, as a way to escape more human-heavy tasks.

Hunting and foraging. I know a lot of therianthropes who feel more like themselves if they have the ability to get their food directly from the source. Herons learning to fish, passerines learning which fruits they can still eat in this body and which they now can't, birds of prey learning how to prepare a rabbit... Knowing some survival skills can be something that feels very personally rewarding.

Flight. Not accessible to everybody, but a lot of flying birds deeply want to fly again, and learning to fly with a body without wings can be a way to really... gain back power in it. Hang gliding, parachuting, etc.

Courting related skills. A lot of birds do have that as a pretty important part of their bird identity ! Whether it's knowing how to bring back food, how to protect a nest or build one, how to sing, how to dance, how to look good, or any other of the myriad of ways birds have to court, getting better at it Feels Right. I personally learn how to cook as one of the main part of this, as an analogue to bringing back prey items, alongside with gift giving. It makes me feel like a more proper roadrunner to be able to compete on that skill.

External social related

Having people you trust acknowledge you as a bird. It's very unlikely at this point in time to be able to just... pass as a bird. But having close friends who acknowledge your species is a world of difference.

Word-change. Calling hands talons, teeth/mouth a beak, hair feathers, etc, can feel a bit ridiculous, but with enough confidence it just kinda... works after a while? I call my hair my plumage. I call my dyed hair my summer plumage, and my short, brown hair my winter plumage, even with people who do not know me as a bird. No one really calls me out on it. People tend to build on the joke and actually start calling me with more bird related words. it's quite fun.

"Being the bird person". Although being seen as a bird is a bit hard, it's actually pretty easy to become "bird-coded" in the eyes of people. It's a good first step. I personally did it just by being very out about my roadrunner obsession and my bird-words and all that, and playing with outfits and Looking the parts tends to feed it.

Gender. This one is kinda external and internal. I don't tend to really... tell people i'm a bright. But i act like a bright. Bright is the gender of birds who court in a pair, such as roosters, peacocks, male blackbirds, female jacanas, etc. It's often associated with bright colors, loudness and competitiveness. Dun or hen is the gender of the bird who is courted in a pair, such as peahen, female bowerbirds, or male phalaropes. It's often associated with nest building, cryptic coloration, being the one who chooses, protectiveness, etc. It varies from species to species, bird to bird, and some species have no bright or dun at all. It's a xenogender borrowed from a fictional alien species from runaway to the stars by jay eaton. Xenogenders can go hand in hand with species markers. Playing with them, playing with pronouns, and with gender presentation, can be a very species euphoric thing.

"Owners". This one kind of a complex topic. Some nonhumans in relationships with humans, whether romantic, queerplatonic, or else, like acknowledging their human as a sort of pet owner, zookeeper, falconer, or other term. Whether this stop at word play, or is an actual dynamic similar to nonsexual (or not) petplay varies. I do not recommend entering a kink dynamic, even nonsexual, before 18 yo due to the power dynamic that usually come w/ deferring to another person as a keeper, even if it is species euphoric for you, however, once you're good to go, why not. Being a falcon, with a falconkeeper, who treats you as a falcon is probably one of the Most Direct way you can socially be a bird. Having a nonhuman partner has a similar effect, but uh, can be hard to come across. I've however heard of at least one bird4bird couple who seem to be doing absolutely great. In general, having a partner that lets you unmask entirely can be an extremely soothing experience.

Building a life around instincts, instead of restricting instincts for human life. This is also complex. By default, human society is not accomodating to nonhuman instincts. Making nonhuman instincts a priority over deffering to human rules is hard. However, it is possible. I know at least one migratory bird who actively migrates, changing continents from summer to winter, and who is building a life around this cycle. My own seasonal cycle impacts my romantic identity : instead of having a consistant need for a partner, I wish for a romantic-sexual partner in summer, and a queerplatonic-friend like relationship in winter. This is non-amanormative, and is something i can't quite change, and I will not settle for a partner who wants me to pick a side. Wanting a territory as a life goal is not worth less than wanting a house. Wanting to be a good bird of prey for your falconer is not less rewarding than wanting to be a doctor. You can have a flock. You can learn to dive to fish for your own food. You can change the rules.

There's probably much, much more to be said on this topic. There's a million of ways people take active steps to live their life truthfully, as many as there is birds out there. I'd love to hear what you guys do.

Hello!! I love the way that you write💞💞

Could you do a NSFW Alphabet A-Z of Hermes?🫶

surprised it took so long for someone to ask for him tbh

Hermes NSFW Alphabet ♡

Template by @/the-coldest-goodbye.

A = Aftercare (what they’re like after sex)

He's very kissy. Like... annoyingly kissy. Kisses all over your face. Nuzzles into your neck. He wants all the affection he can get out of you, basically. If he has a lazy morning, he will just sprawl on top of you, deciding that no, you don't have things to do today, actually. He's the god, he knows better. Go back to sleep.

B = Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)

His? Hair. He doesn't really take his helmet (or whatever it is) off often, so it's not very common for someone to see him without it. But you get to. And he loves it when your fingers tangle in his hair or when you subconsciously pull on it.

Yours? Your lower back. It's the absolute best place to wrap his arms around when he holds you. And he likes holding you. A lot.

C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically)

Somewhat thick at first, but then it kinda gets a bit more watery. Very white.

D = Dirty secret (pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)

He absolutely loses it if you tug on his hair to bring him closer. He loves it. He likes it when you tug on his hair in general, but tugging on his hair and bringing him closer? Best thing ever.

E = Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?)

He's got plenty of kids and he's wildly charismatic, my boy fucks. Of course he knows what he's doing.

F = Favorite position (this goes without saying)

He likes anything that results with you being on top of him, so mostly cowgirl or reverse cowgirl. He's also rather fond of just having you lay on top of him while he slowly moves his hips, just enough to give you some sweet, sweet pleasure.

G = Goofy (are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.)

Probably the goofiest out of everyone, honestly. Especially if he notices you getting stresses or nervous. He might randomly gently pinch your side or tickle you to make you laugh. Or make some silly jokes or comments. He likes to hear you giggle between whatever pleasured sounds you make.

H = Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)

He doesn't really shave, but he does trim it every once in a while. It's still relatively bushy, always kept at that point where it's just barely under control.

I = Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect)

Despite how silly he might about the whole thing sometimes, he's absolutely into it. Even as he cracks jokes or sometimes blows raspberries on your neck just to make you laugh, there's this deep, intimate connection each time.

J = Jack off (masturbation headcanon)

Considering how busy he is and that he has you, he firmly believes it's much easier to just steal you away for a quickie. Two birds, one stone, all that.

K = Kink (one or more of their kinks)

Public sex. He likes the idea of sneaking around with you and the excitement that comes with the risk of people catching you two. Even if they did, it's not like they could do anything, so it's completely harmless for you two. Not so much for whoever sees you, but who cares?

L = Location (favorite places to do the do)

Rooftops. Preferably of his own temple. Think about it, he runs up to you, grabs you, and pretty much kidnaps you to the place where there are people worshiping him inside. There's just something very exciting about it, you know?

M = Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going)

Seeing you work in any way, shape or form. Doesn't matter if it's out in the field, with pottery or even writing stories or poems. He sees you doing anything, he wants to steal you away.

Naturally, seeing you lounge also does it. He finds you incredibly attractive.

N = No (something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)

Anything that he sees causing you genuine distress. He's fine with a lot of things, very much eager to try, even. But the moment he notices any sort of discomfort that isn't the initial uncertainty that comes with trying a new thing, he just stops and goes straight to aftercare.

O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)

Pussy and ass eating champ, I don't make the rules. You've got a hole, he's got a tongue, let's fucking go.

He doesn't mind if you get on your knees for him, though. ;)

P = Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.)

Usually fast, but not rough. He doesn't want you to hurt, he knows what he's doing. He does like to take it slow when he's got more time, though. Especially when he learns everything that makes you tick and he finally gets to properly mess around with you.

Q = Quickie (their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)

Listen, he's a very busy god. So he'll take any chance to be with you he can get. And that means randomly stealing you for a quickie, giving you one last peck on the lips after he made sure you're okay, and then running off, going back to his responsibilities.

R = Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.)

As I said before, he will fuck you on rooftops. He does not care about being caught in the slightest. You wanna do something risky? You barely finish your sentence and he is on it already.

S = Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?)

He spends most of his time running around. You know he's got good stamina. Can you keep going? Good, so can he. No matter how many rounds you want.

T = Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?)

Doesn't really have any, but he's more than happy (and curious, mostly) to see what they do if you have any. But if you use them on yourself, he will absolutely join in, teasing your body in all the right places.

U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)

He teases a lot, but does it in a very playful, lighthearted way. He loves messing with you, but it's always very sweet, never pushing it too hard... unless you're into it.

V = Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)

Quiet when topping, mostly just hushed whispers in your ear, some breathy chuckles.

When you're the one in charge, though? Oh, he is loud. He just lets go completely. Because why not, right? Yeah, sometimes he does play it up a little just to fluster you, but mostly all his moans and groans are authentic. And loud.

W = Wild card (a random headcanon for the character)

Sometimes, when he wants to make it more fun, he won't show himself to you directly. Rather, he'll hide nearby and laugh, waiting for you to come looking... and then he pounces on you with a kiss attack.

X = X-ray (let’s see what’s going on under those clothes)

Relatively thin, somewhere around six inches. It's got freckles. Because I decided Hermes has freckles.

Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?)

Babygirl (gender neutral), he craves you all the time. Especially when he's busy. Honestly, his busy days are when he craves you the most. And once he gets his hands on you when he's finally free? You're not going anywhere, love.

Z = Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)

Nie spać, zwiedzać, zapierdalać.

He usually doesn't get to actually sleep with you afterwards, but he does tuck you in and wait for you to sleep before leaving if it was nighttime. If he does get to stay, however, it's usually only after you fall asleep... and he gets to play with your cheeks for a solid few minutes because he thinks it's adorable.

Things Ancient Greeks (and modern demigods) probably say in the Athenide AU

1. Don’t exchange owls for ravens: be mindful of your choices

2. Check the bird’s leg before the race: read the damn small letters

3. Calling someone “Athena’s chosen one” or “Athenide’s husband-to-be” (or boyfriend, if it’s a modern demigods saying): when someone is so full of themself and/or think they can do anything

4. Calling one’s mother-in-law a “Old Owl” (self explanatory)

5. When a mama and a papa got a leaf and a fountain… (again, self explanatory)

6. We can to it after Athenide’s marriage: when pigs fly

7. The sun rises after the race: do not lose hope even when something bad happens

8. Don’t go bragging about birds: think before you talk (shout out to Odysseus who kept bragging about birds and got a lot of sunburns)

You people can add more if you want ✨

[corollaservant]

oh noooo kinks post is gone 😭😭

buddy, you lurkin? this was up for an hour 😳 jk jk—this was filthy, made me feel like i was too disgusting on the internet or shadowbanned. anyways yk what? here you go (cause it was fun to write) <3

(18+) MHA kinks (shiggy, overhaul, dabi)

cw: coercion/gaslighting, edging (lol?), s/m, asphyxiation(implied), kai's mysophobia (the correct term is microphobia but anyways)

Shigaraki: i think he’s into gaslighting and coercion and ik the latter doesn’t classify as a kink (more like an offense) but hear me out:

he brought you to that miserable bar the LoV hangs out in and can’t stop touching you, while you’re forced to sit on his lap. you love public, right? well, no and he knows. whether the LoV watches or not doesn't matter, he wants to see your attitude change, once you can't hide the fact he's fucking you over fabric anymore. his cock twitches, when he stops and you silently beg with your eyes. he'll tell you that he thought you didn't like this while you’ll apologize for even thinking that.

when alone, he’ll have you sprawled on the bed, parting your legs and asking you which you prefer, his fingers or tongue. you’ll brokenly breathe out a “fingers, please” as he’ll sneer and..oblige. he’s clearly skilled, his fingertips tease your cunt as if he’s strumming close chords on a guitar and fuck—you look pretty as shit watching him push them inside. ‘’so you’re saying that you don't like my tongue, yeah?’’ he’ll feign sorrow, you never said that but he makes you reflect on it. ‘’you know what i think? i think you’ll like my tongue just fine’’ he’ll tell you and start sucking on the swelled nub as you tremble. ‘’actually.. you’ll like it more’’

once you shamelessly cum on his tongue exhausted, he’ll continue. ‘’ready for the main event?’’ he’ll ask as you beg him to at least wait a second, you ache down there but he obviously doesn’t care. ‘’there’s no time to wait..come on baby, you know it feels better the second time around.’’ he’ll tell you as his tip splits your folds. you ultimately consider that he might be right after all. actually, he’s never wrong.

Overhaul: this man has an edging kink.. before you say anything, it’s not what you think.

he’ll have you on that examination table (not too heavy on his medical kink tho), mask and gloves on, of course what did you think? that he’d make an exception? the fact he’s even touching you is enough boundaries crossed for him. his gloved hand will spread your juices across your pussy, as he winces behind the bird mask. he hates dirt, bodily fluids, liquids, any bodily emission/discharge, call it whatever you want. the moment he senses your pulse and legs jerking, he’ll remove his hand in fear you might cum on his gloves. you’ll whimper upset but he doesn’t really care, you should thank him for allowing you this proximity in the first place.

same with sex. condoms with him is like the concept of gravity — self fucking explanatory. sometimes he’ll even use two. don’t get him wrong, it’s not like you are the problem, it’s more like your body, he feels like he purifies you each time he thrusts calculated in your cunt (he's delusional). he likes you being vocal as long as you don’t accidentally spit on him, which will earn you a slap.

to prove that the issue is not you, the man will not allow himself to cum inside you, even with the (2) condoms on. he just prefers transmitting the ‘filth’ directly onto you, which means he’ll have you pump his cock and receive all his load (wherever it lands, he makes sure it's angled towards you). 

he's a weirdo of course, but he makes up for it in aftercare. he sterilizes you like there’s no tomorrow. if you’re lucky and you make him cum quick and clean, he might offer a cup of tea and your favorite snack. 

Dabi: sadomasochism. i’ve seen both variations separately done for him before — i just think he’s both.

obviously he’s more into the first (sadism). will treat you like a potato sack, lifting you up without asking, throwing (literally throwing) you to the bed, not caring about where you’ll land and ripping/burning the fabric that clings onto you. assaults your cunt—spits on it and slaps the clit with his hands (sometimes too hard, it makes you cry).

facefucks you the minute you get a hold of his cock, he doesn’t even give you a second, he will grab your head and move it to an unforgiving pace. definitely a cheek slapper — needs to feel his dick in your gums from outside. he might pinch your nose shut and leave you with no airway to..survive. but it’s ok, you make it out alive.

has ropes and recently bought a leash and a collar. it’s red with a black handle and he uses it each time you talk too much. might get bored just holding the handle as he needs to touch (bruise) you, so he’ll hang it to the bed’s end and just pull at the steel. shoots his cum inside only when you're loud enough to make his ears ring. (rip neighbors, they're already considering moving out after they called the cops on him and he almost fried them)

until..

the thing is.. Dabi lives in the past, he doesn’t share his life with anyone so how is he supposed to not dwell on it by himself? has a lot of inflicted pain he can’t share but subconsciously craves. the first time you take liberty in causing him pain ever so little is accidental. you are on top, he’s setting the pace, sure, but your weight falls on his face as your arms enclose his neck. you’re not trying, hell, you don’t even know how to choke someone properly (why would you?) but you need to hold on to something and you think you’re imagining it when you hear a very soft moan. no, you’re definitely imagining it. it will cross your mind later on.

after that, you try to experiment in the territory, you’re in missionary and he thrusts inside you while you bring his neck close and squeeze again. this time you deliberately apply pressure as he hisses a fuck so.. you slap him. it’s a light, small smack on his cheek, again, you don’t want to piss him off but he groans, this time louder and you grin. you might end up slapping him harder the more the sex progresses, the staples hurt your knuckles but he’s making desperate (sexy) sounds.

he’s not gonna be descriptive since he is waay too embarrassed (you will never hear a ‘’shit, i love it when you cause me pain, babe’’) but you don’t care, his expressions tell you everything you need to know.

the next time you’re on top and test the waters, you grab the leash and collar from the nightstand and raise a brow. that’s how most of the communication flows, with mute understanding. he’ll huff in annoyance while his hips involuntarily buck up and he’ll mutter: ‘’shit, whatever.. get this over with.’’ (i hc he calls you bro when embarrassed lol) breath already hitched as you adjust the buckle to his neck. safe to say you’re more than proud to see him fall apart, even if tears never spill from his eyes. 

[roseareeh]

hiiii! I would love to see your thoughts on the NSFW alphabet for either Eddie or Jonathan?? Maybe both if you feel so inclined to do both!! I loved the one for Steve :)

smooches!! <3

Thank you for the request!! I did Eddie for this ask because Jonathan is going to take me a bit since writing him is still new to me. I hope you enjoy! I'll tag you in the Jonathan one once it's up 🫶🏻

‼️MDNI‼️

NSFW Alphabet - Eddie Munson

A = Aftercare (what they’re like after sex)

Very needy. All over you, kissing, hugging, making sure you're okay. But Eddie loves when you take him in your arms and play with his hair

B = Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)

BOOB MAN! He shamelessly takes peeks whenever he can. But they don't only look good, he likes to use them as pillows as well. Eddie loves listening to your heartbeat come steady again after he roughed you up

C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically)

Loves when you swallow, especially when you show him afterwards that you did by sticking your tongue out

D = Dirty secret (pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)

Enjoys being dominated, even if he won't admit to that

E = Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?)

He canonically has a bit of experience, but most of his experience happens with you. Honestly, he didn't know what he was doing in the beginning but with some patience and instruction Eddie now makes you sing like a bird

F = Favorite position (this goes without saying)

Cowgirl and Missionary.

Cowgirl because that plays into him enjoying being dominated. Plus, your boobs bounce so beautifully.

Missionary because he gets to see your face and kiss you. Especially when Eddie is feeling needy, it's his go-to.

G = Goofy (are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.)

He makes jokes in between, but when you're exploring kinks together he's a bit more serious. But that won't stop Eddie from making fun of himself if he falls off the bed.

H = Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)

I feel like he just let's it grow. Once you two started having sex regularly, he trimms it whenever he was time

I = Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect)

Likes being romantic, but doesn't need it all the time. But he does see the way your face lits up when he's mid-thrusts and an "I love you." comes out. He loves it.

J = Jack off (masturbation headcanon)

His sex-drive is high, so he jacks off a LOT. Once he got with you, it wasn't that much anymore, but he still does it when you're not around to help him.

K = Kink (one or more of their kinks)

Bondage. Those handcuffs above his bed? They're for you.

He's also into light spanking, especially when your hands are tied behind your back and you're bend over his bed.

Occasionally, he's into spitting in your mouth but that only happens when the bondage and spanking is already involved.

Overall, he likes powerplay.

L = Location (favorite places to do the do)

The back of his van has become a favourite for the both of you. It's convenient, and his uncle can't just barge in. Although he's never been opposed to doing it in his bedroom as long as he knows he'll be alone for a while.

M = Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going)

Not even Eddie himself can pinpoint it. It's just you that turns him on. The way you walk, your smile, your laugh, everything. He loves you as a whole, and is attracted to you as a whole.

N = No (something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)

Hard spanking. You could beg him for it, but he could never hurt you too much. A red handprint doesn't bother him, but a bruise is too much. It already took you months to have him try out choking, and he's careful with that as well.

O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)

Wouldn't admit it because he loves diving face-first into your pussy, but he prefers receiving just a bit more. It plays into how he loves cuming in your mouth.

P = Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.)

Usually, he's fast. In the beginning, Eddie was fast to a point where it was too fast, but he eventually found a good pace that both of you enjoyed.

He's very capable of going slow and sensual. Especially when he's being a big softie. That's always paired with soft kisses and lots of "I love you." 's.

Q = Quickie (their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)

Doesn't mind them, that's why he has a blanket in the back of his van. He prefers having more time with you, but he's still a fan of quickies.

R = Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.)

Contrary to popular belief, he doesn't really like anything public. His van is the furthest he'd go. Only he gets to see you like that, and he'd prefer it to stay that way.

S = Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?)

After learning with you, he can go for a good 2 rounds and extensive foreplay. But he's dead-tired after that.

T = Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?)

Most of the toys are bondage toys. You two tried dildos out on you before, and while he enjoyed that it's not a stable in the bedroom.

U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)

He does enjoy teasing you a lot. Hand on your thighs, on your butt, whispered comments on what he'd do to you. Likes seeing you riled up before giving you your release.

V = Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)

Very vocal. He'll tell you how good you feel, that you're beautiful while getting pounded or how tight you feel around him. Eddie thinks it's important for you to know that you're doing a good job.

W = Wild card (a random headcanon for the character)

Would live to try out roleplay, in which he'd get dominated. Like a cop-thief fantasy, for example.

X = X-ray (let’s see what’s going on under those clothes)

I think Eddie is pretty average, both in lenght and thickness. There's a curve to it, and he knows how to make you see stars with it. Pretty veiny as well, especially when he's hard.

Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?)

High. Very, very high. If he could, he'd do it all the time. When you're home alone and it's the weekend, you two barely leave the bedroom.

Z = Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)

Very fast. After a few minutes of kisses and cuddles, he falls asleep with his head on your chest (clothes or not)

[tigressaofkanjis]

My biggest pet peeve in Transformers media and fanfiction sometimes is that Transformers aren't treated as aliens. They are referred to as aliens, they obviously are aliens, but they never feel like they are aliens because they are always written or seen as having all human mannerisms or features usually. Human posture, human noses, human mannerisms, humanoids...

What about TFA's cat noses or TFP's helm noses? One of the reasons I think those two shows have peak designs is because they have this lack of uncanniness to humans design wise. I'm not looking at a human being as a robot, I'm looking at an alien robot, ones that have claws, ones that have different body types that blend with their vehicle modes, ones with horrific mutilations and designs impossible by human standards. I love seeing that type of stuff in Transformers because to me, it makes them feel alien without completely changing the premises of similarities to where we can't compare their culture or likeness to humans. The films (mostly 1 and 2) showed off this as well.

Another thing I really would like to see in Transformers media is non-human interactive qualities. What do I mean by that? One thing I've noticed is aside from techno-organic species, regular Cybertronians do have a few qualities found in animals. Engine humming I believe was once used as a form of purring in the films and in some of the cartoons. Humans can't purr; cats can, and that small detail is always interesting to come across because it's like "wow, they have this feature that shows off a trait found in Cybertronians. That is so cool." You have them with multiple voice boxes for mechanical, natural, and human-like tones which is also an animal trait. Bumblebee is self-explanatory in most universes being able to still make sounds yet not talk. They have sensors across their body that don't act like the basic human receptors. Most animals can do more than just feel through certain points of their bodies. They can taste, smell, or even hear a hundred times better than a human being throughout various body parts, and Transformers have been hinted to have this ability too, especially through their servos. It's stuff like this that expands upon their existence as aliens.

They have extreme durability, their body morphs to extremes and can also double as a moving weapon (most obvious of course), some of them can make ungodly roars and creature-like noises to warn or show their threatening demeanor (Megatron's dinosaur-like growling), some can have two rows of teeth (a flat base in front and fangs hidden behind), and some of them have mimicking animal-like features (Starscream's bird-shaped feet with visible expansion the same as organic foot padding with similar distributive weight physics in a few universes) despite having no beast mode. There's probably more I can't think of on the top of my head in canon, but all those things are not heavily used as they should be to make them feel alien. They can still hold some relation to the humans they interact with, but I think a lot of Transformers are more than just metal "humans", you know?

Depending on the universe in fanfiction and who you encounter who writes it or not, you have several things that are always cool to see. They have to sparkbond (merging of hearts) above everything else to create a sparkling's life force with interface as just the extra for physical coding features. I've seen people use the non-canon heat cycles which are, of course, our fandom way of making a type of breeding euphemism akin to an animal's cycle. You have the common phrasing of nuzzling, heightened senses, armor and certain parts of the helm acting like fur or ears where it raises and flattens per their mood, and some Transformers have limb dissonance where if necessary, they can convert between bipedal and quadrupedal stances (best example is Bulkhead and Lugnut from TFA who have long arms but short legs and they have the bulky structure where they could possibly run like an animal briefly and the physics of it would work).

So, you have all these different things a common Cybertron most likely would be able to do or have but a human couldn't, and it's never utilized to their full potential. I would like to see people address the nature of Cybertronians as alien and not be afraid to make them alien. I think that's the biggest flaw in our franchise is that everyone is scared of making the Transformers not the humanoid "norm" and getting ridiculed for it. Like, they're aliens, you can make them act however animal-like or completely batshit insane as you want them. You can give them powers, animal-based senses, and behaviors hidden among a human thought process. And technically, you wouldn't be wrong to what they could be as a living creature in the universe by doing so. They aren't humans; they look humanoid, but they aren't us. Why should they have to be in every regard?

Thank you for reading my TED Talk.
