What do you think gay men are attracted to in men that they can’t be attracted to in women?

It can’t be anything about femininity or masculinity obviously. That’s both sexist, and cultural so can’t be what drives men-only attraction.

It can’t be anything about stated identity because someone could lie just as easily as they could tell the truth in such a statement, and it makes no sense because homosexuality and heterosexuality exists in other species with no stated identities. It’s not like other animals without gender are all pan.

Saying idk it’s the vibes or some indescribable trait men have that women can’t but “I can’t explain” is a nonanswer.

Soooooooo what is it? Or do you think any sexuality but bi/pan is just cultural performance or an identity rather than an inborn orientation?

There are two types of dichotomy: False dichotomies, true dichotomies, and surprise trichotomies.

oh would you look at that. a totally inconspicuous pile of extremely low effort and entirely unrelated doodles. how did that get there? 

(separated for convenience, but it also absolutely decimated the quality which… ow.)

I had been liking your monster au, and what if Yuu can do acrobats or they are a contortionist? Mostly because of Yuu having a very flexible body. And the researchers just found out about it and they're maybe thinking that all humans can do it too (being able to bend backwards with ease)((note: if Yuu can do the exorcist spider crawl, they will scare the students lol))

Ooooh my goodness, I can imagine the sheer looks of horror and confusion the boys would have if they witnessed Yuu being that flexible! 🤣

For the most part I think that the researchers would discover this during one of Yuu’s physical exams, testing their reflexes and their muscle strength among other things. On a whim, one of the researchers asked Yuu to touch their toes to see how well their spine moved, and depending on how long they’ve been at it or how bored Yuu is, if they bend over backwards and touch their toes through their legs while peering up at them…

Well, let’s just say that the shrill shriek came from more than one researcher that day.

As soon as Yuu can reassure them that they’re completely fine and that, no, they didn’t just break their spine, the researchers would be very interested to see just how far this flexibility went. They even enlisted Vil and Jamil’s assistance to do a side-by-side comparison to see how Yuu would compare, and while Jamil came the closest it was still baffling to witness just how fluid the human was in their movements. Even Vil was impressed, thinking of how to incorporate their own flexibility into the Pomefiore training.

Soon enough the other first years found out about this, and they approached Yuu during movie night at Diasomnia to ask about it. “Do something really crazy!” Ace goaded them on. "Freak us out like you did those scientists!"

Yuu thought for a moment before they smiled. “Well…okay, but remember: you asked for this. Jack? Could you turn out the lights, please?”

“Uh…sure,” came the response.

As soon as the lights were off, Yuu’s smile grew wider as they waited for everyone to settle in. Then, they fell backwards until their hands were planted firmly against the floor, earning a gasp from the others. “Whoa, how’dja do that?!” Grim asked.

Yuu said nothing, their hands and feet shuffling as they turned around to face them with…a rather eerie looking expression on their face. “…um…Yuu?” Jack uttered. “Are…you okay?”

They didn’t say anything, a low, gurgling sound escaping their throat…before they began scuttling towards them!

“GYAH!?!?!” came the startled screams as the first years scrambled to get away, claws and hooves slipping and scraping against the stone floor before they scattered in a panic. “Demon human!!!!”

From the top of the staircase Lilia couldn’t help but chuckle in amusement as he said, “Ah, how adorable. Fufufu…perhaps I should teach the little human a few tricks of my own?”

Pulleyverse Characters as ATLA Benders

Mori: If any one of the pulleyverse characters were to be the avatar it would definitely be Mori, but if he weren't the avatar I think he would be an earth bender who specializes in metal bending. Like I think he would have so much fun making little metal sculptures and moving structures and stuff like that, not unlike the Beifongs in LoK. So combining those ideas, he'd be an avatar born in the Earth Kingdom who very much does not want to be the avatar.

Shenkov: He's definitely a fire bender, no question. He has that classic fire bender strength and honor routine basically engrained in him from a young age, and I feel like he could be pretty accomplished as a fire bender, but again he probably wouldn't want to do much fire bending. He'd kinda be like an Iroh situation; was and could be the strongest person in the room if he let loose, but all he really wants is some tea.

Joe: Water bender, and a damn good one too. He really mastered the calm meditative nature required of a water bender, (the man stared blank faced at a ticking bomb two feet from him, for Christ's sake) but he can also be really ruthless about it too. I don't necessarily think he would be a blood bender or anything like that, but he would definitely be able to pull the freezing rain thing like Katara.

Missouri: He would also be a water bender for the same reasons as Joe, but I think he would in fact be a blood bender. In the world of ATLA, blood benders are very widely feared, and for good reason, and I think Missouri would absolutely be capable of using something like blood bending to instill fear in people. He wouldn't like doing it of course, but he could and would if necessary.

Gale: They're very much an air bender. They're very calm and meditative when they need to be, and that is how they prefer to be, but they could definitely pull a Yangchen and just go buckwild if they needed to. And I feel like of all the pulleyverse characters, they're the least attached to their "earthly desires" (and that is relative bc none of these mfs are detached at all). Plus imagine them having a fuckin MAMMOTH as their little companion buddy instead of a bison!!! A big ass flying mammoth!!!

Valery: I honestly think Valery would be a non bender. He's all for science and everything like that, and of course benders can be scientists, but I feel like he would spend a lot of time studying what makes people able to bend instead of being a bender himself. If I were to choose one element for him I would probably choose fire, but at the end of the day it makes the most sense to me if he were more interested in studying bending.

Merrick: Earth bender. There is no other answer for him that earth bender. He's very grounded and stable in his character, but also undeniably strong. His arc about overcoming the "weakness" he feels after his leg gets messed up honestly is very reminiscent of Toph to me, and I feel like he would absolutely take the time and learn from the creatures of the earth to become an incredibly powerful earth bender. Also adding in him being a mentor for Mori and it's just >>>

Raphael: I feel like he would also be an earth bender tbh. Like he just so ardently respects the land he lives on and constantly learns from his environment to adapt, especially considering he can't always rely on the people around him, so he would turn to learning from the world around him. If I were pressed to choose another one I think he could also fit into the fire bender role, but I prefer the earth bender interpretation tbh.

January: He honestly could be a non bender too, but the Sokka kind of non bender who takes the time to learn actual fighting moves from all of the nations and become just an incredibly powerful fighter on his own. I feel like he would be especially inspired by air nomad moves being a dancer and all, and that would be the way he bonds with Gale which I think is vvv cute.

Thaniel: he has stumped me this entire post, which is very odd considering I think about this man at least five times a day, and the best conclusion I think I've drawn is he'd either be a non bender or an earth bender. So probably then a non bender born in the earth kingdom, because he does embody the earth kingdom ideals of maintaining outward strength and balance in life, but not necessarily the actual ideals of an earth bender. And tbh he seems like he couldn't give less of a fuck about bending.

okay really niche OC chat prompt today but. you know that common trope where a character is transported into an illusory world that shallowly fulfills all their wishes/removes all current conflicts ("oh my god, i'm back home in my warm bed, none of the horrible Plot Events actually happened, my dead loved one is alive and says 'what are you talking about, silly? are you feeling okay? i made breakfast! ^^'", etc), usually as a way to delay them from finding + defeating whoever is making the illusion or whatever

say your commander (or anyone) gets trapped in one of those. how long does it take them to figure out something's wrong (alternately if u have multiple ocs u wanna answer for, rank them from "immediately sniffs it out" to "would blissfully waste away there forever"). extra credit: what's everybody's insidious wish-fulfillment illusion world
