So about Deadpool and Wolverine, we know that Logan is ticklish because of the X-Men movie. So what do you think Logan would do if Wade tried to put that fact to the test, because I genuinely think I'd be entertaining to see. 💀

Thank you for the ask, this was a fun thought!!

Ticklish Logan has to be one of my FAVORITE headcanons for him, purely because of Wade. If Wade ever put two and two together that the gruff, grumpy, old man Wolverine was ticklish- it'd be nothing but hell for Logan and a blessing for Wade.

Because once Wade gets going, what's Logan gonna do? Wade will locate every single hot spot and use it against him any chance he can. In the middle of an arguement? Bam! Tased, on the ground. Minding his own business, perhaps doing something important? No on his watch. Wade bored out of his mind? You know where this is going.

Logan would absolutely hate it, except it's mainly due to Wade's poor choice to display it publically. No one likes being tickled, hell, Logan sure as hell doesn't, but behind closed doors where he's got a little more freedom and control to do whatever with Wade, he can tolerate it.

As far as what Logan does in response? Simply put, it involes a lot of stabbing.

i used to enjoy channels that read tumblr posts out loud but now i am so befuddled by them. you just read these? that's it? i mean i get it's funny but a good 99% of the time the videos are only good because of the posts themself, not the voiceovers. if your audience likes tumblr posts that much to be watching daily videos maybe they should? simply Get a tumblr account? fully i am unsure of the point of this

i'm sure i can guess, but. thoughts on the kotlc smut debate? do you think it's appropriate?

I'm not interested in getting into discourse, so I'll try and keep this short and sweet (also, none of this is angry or targeted at anyone and I’m fine talking about it—I’m just not interested in senseless, unproductive arguing!!)

As the subjects are fictional, I don't care. They aren't real people. Smut written about them does not impact or hurt them in any way.

What someone chooses to write about and why is not my business. If it's smut written by teens about teens as a means of exploring sexuality, if its a means of processing experiences or abuse, if its for fun--whatever it is, that's their business. Including for adult authors. They can have just as valid motivations, not that they need to justify themselves. They literally cannot hurt these characters

As for real people, such as fans, no one is forced to read it. If you find yourself in the middle of something that makes you uncomfortable, you can stop reading and walk away. And yes, there may be initial discomfort as you realize--for which I am sympathetic, but it happens and that is on you to manage, not the author.

Authors are also not responsible for rule breakers who access sites they're not old enough for. We're responsible for tagging and adhering to the rules of hosting sites

Also, smut as a whole is a valid form of writing/creation. Sexuality is a normal (note: I am not saying it is the ONLY normal. ace here), widespread part of life, and sexual gratification and enjoyment are morally neutral

Am I personally gonna write any kotlcrew smut? No. Am I gonna read any? Probably no. Not my kind of kotlc fic. I by and large don't enjoy it. But fic writers who chose to engage with the subject here are not writing about real people, and not responsible for real people's comfort with their work beyond tagging.

Smut is always going to exist. It is safer for all parties if it is freely allowed to exist so no one has to disclose potentially very personal justifications (e.g. processing abuse/experiences), and so it can be properly tagged and avoided by those who want/need to--otherwise individuals will not tag appropriately in the interest of not being taken down, and that helps no one.

and since this was brought up last time: this is my stance. I can't tell you how to think, and I don't decide for anyone else what is right from wrong. i can only share my reasonings

Oh also: I don’t hold it against anyone who’s disgusted or uncomfortable with it! That’s fine. I don’t enjoy it either! Valid! But that doesn’t mean we can say it shouldn’t exist or harass people who write it (not saying anyone has, this is just addressing the broad question)

just finalized the query package for my novel and i start querying again on monday??? who is ready to get absolutely Brutalized by the publishing industry with me this summer

Nigel and Alex have their rare moments of intimacy behind closed doors. Lingering touches, and blazing warmth.

Lots of people have told me I should self publish, but I think I still want to try to go through traditionally publishing my book first. I've got a finished manuscript, so how do I go about querying agents to find the best fit?

Pitching your manuscript to literary agents is a length process that requires lots of dedication, and a great deal of research. To get the most out of your querying, you definitely need to go in prepared.

We've put together this walk through for how to pitch your novel to literary agents, including some helpful do's and don'ts at the link below!

Share the PR Danny and DR Tucker Headcanons and ideas don’t be shy 🤲

PA TI 🤲🏽

when they were little they realized they had a 'secret' language that none of the other kids knew so theyd be talking jibberish to everyone else meanwhile its just spanish

they fight like all the time over silly shit (literally just canon LOL) but specifically never shut up about different names for the same food (its ended their friendship like twice)(they love eachother)

danny is like allllways at tuckers house because his parents actually cook more than one meal for the week and tuckers dad is like tu delincuente nerd friend is here n danny is just like hey tio

after spending so much time at tuckers' they help eachother with their hair routines

if you listen close enough you can hear the mingling of their accents. at first it started off as mocking the way they say specific words but u know how that goes LOL

... Does Leo blame himself for causing the apocalypse?

Uhm...in my own au, I think it starts off as him blaming himself, yeah. I don't think I really explored the very beginning though..hm. But after he loses Cassandra, then Raph, and then Donnie, I think he starts feeling more responsible more than anything else. Especially considering how Leo is now responsible for Cassandra's kid, and he initially co-led the resistance with Raph.

As it stands, I think Leo's progression goes like..blame -> worry -> anger -> guilt -> responsible

That might change...who knows...

quil. quil we gotta put our differences aside and get fitz back in the comeback round 🙏 we cant let him lose now. by one vote.

kotlc fandom please. we need him back he deserves more. he deserves the world. he's wonderboy. the golden boy. the prince. he nearly murdered his brother, twice. he stopped pressing buttons. he runs his hand through his hair when he's upset. he sleeps with a stuffed dragon. he got his crush matching rings with their initials. his crush outshines him at what he's best at and he's constantly fighting with himself over it. he bakes.

PLEASE! vote fitz back in the comeback round! please

You know, I saw something lovely today—the windows of the inn are all frosted over, and I suppose that the sun must be hitting it just right today, because every so often the entire dining room is bathed in rainbows.

Well, do come in and see for yourself. It’s time for Ask the Innkeeper!

— dad!atsumu is the type to push his kids into volleyball (his heart broke when he found out his son did NOT want to be a setter and wanted osamu to teach him how to be a wingspiker)

— definitely tries to attend every game his son has and would be so embarrassing whenever his son would score a point that he asks atsumu to tone it down or have osamu stand in as replacement (BRO WAS SULKING AFTER THAT)

— i feel like he'd actually use osamu to stand in for him if there's a big game and he wants osamu to recount every second as if he's living the experience thru his twin (osamu is TIRED but knows that atsumu doesn't want his kid thinking he isn't showing up)

— is definitely a girl!dad

— he takes her out to lil daddy-daughter dinners in the fanciest attire 🥹

— i have this hc where when his children were toddlers he and osamu would always play parent swap and laugh whenever his kids would get confused and cry

— is a pushover for his kids i fear 😔 yk those family hierarchies that we grow up to? yeah no that doesn't exist because he's scared of his wife and his children (they bite)

— "atsumu go wash the dishes"

"i'm the setter of first league msby"

"okay setter of first league msby, wash the fucking dishes"

KINDA ALL OVER THE PLACE BUT I HOPE U GET IT 😭

FIRST OF ALL OMG NIE THANK U FOR COMING TO MY ASK BOX W THIS 😫<333

tsumu is definitely a girl!dad and will spoil her lots bc ‘that’s his lil girl’ !!!! :( <3 he’d be teaching her how boys are supposed to treat her, and def tears up a lil when he hears she has a small crush on someone at school!! tsumu is also the type to cry when his daughter goes to her first prom omg :<

i can so so see tsumu pushing his kids to become a setter (he may or may not have been patiently waiting to teach them his techniques 😭) at the end of the day he’d be supportive of samu teaching them instead but would have the biggest pout during training sessions LMAOO but he’d happy toss so his kids could spike them!!! (and in his mind, maybe its not too bad that his kids want to be a wingspiker since he gets to set to them) and YES YES YES he’d absolutely ask osamu to stand in because even though he’s not there physically, he’s there in spirit and that’s all that matters <3

oh my GODDD i live for those parent swap pranks 😭 they’d absolutely do it more times than not (once his child liked being in osamu’s arms more than his and he got all sulky while trying to prove that he’s the REAL dad)

“okay setter of first league MSBY, wash the fucking dishes.” I AM CRYINGGG tsumu would definitely use that as an excuse to try and sneakily avoid chores but that ain’t happening in the miya household!!! he’s honestly the type to just be like “yes ma’am 🫡” no questions asked bc he might be big n tall but he has a soft spot for his wife (and hes a scaredy cat, just a bit, though)
