#anyway the cringe i felt insisting my cool edgy oc is also sexy CANNOT compare to how important it is to talk about this type of sexy

[nikomedes]

i have before described shrike as having young uncle energy. ten cool facts about wolf spiders energy. but the unfortunate thing is that goes hand in hand with him being sexy in a very specific kind of way, where its like

you know how you can generally find someone cool or pleasant but physically unremarkable, but then they do smth and ur brain short circuits? the classic is the “reaches for something on a high shelf and some belly shows” but strong contenders are also “stretches and the way their shoulders move is A Lot” or the one that happened to me personally, “navigated around me in a cramped kitchen with such total awareness of their body and mine my brain skipped like vinyl.” the sexy physicality that has nothing to do with how they look and everything to do with how they move in their skin

thats the way shrike is sexy. like he has great tits and his jawline is nice, but in a world of fantasy hunks thats whatever. but i described him in “feeding on fever” as “not body-proud, but body-easy,” and i meant that. voted top ten guys who can wind up a coil of rope as the party breaks camp in a way that leaves everybody breathless. and he’s totally oblivious to it. he couldnt and wouldnt ever try to be enticing on purpose and thats what makes the sheer seductive energy of him sitting in a chair galling
