[submarined-silles]

[barelyoksometimes]

Going to my local pride parade this weekend and I made this sign. For someone who's absolutely terrible at art I think it turned out ok

[oso-lechonk]

Deeper in my high school LJ and I realized I'm bi. And then my dad was going to get deployed (which didn't actually happen) and my immediate thought was I was being punished for being queer

Read your diary I said it will be fun I said

Headcanons about Ben Wyatt (loml)

□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□

show: Parks and Rec

request: no

□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□

gets addicted to mobile puzzle games. Sometimes he'll just zone out for like 45 straight minutes when he's playing until someone (usually Leslie) has to actually tap him on the shoulder to get his attention.

Also I believe he's a legend of zelda player (like if we're thinking in terms of nintendo switch games, Leslie is the ACNH gf and Ben is the BOTW bf)

Ran cross country in high school and occasionally will run 5ks with Chris, but doesn't do it for the competition aspect, more as a way to run off steam.

i know it's canon that he wrote fanfic (gay star trek fanfic to be specific) but I also KNOW that he also probably runs like five tumblr blogs.

On that note if he ever does a q and a on one blog, he will submit asks from his other blogs to give himself questions to answer so the effort for a q and a won't be nothing

While he and his sister are friendly, it's hard with her being in Patridge, so he sort of sees April as an alternate little sister

They both have darker/drier senses of humor and also spent all that time together in DC. Ben has suggested multiple times to April that they go on another road trip, but everytime April says she only wants to go to actual haunted houses or ghost towns...so nothing has ever come out of that. maybe someday.

Ben is bi, we all knew that, he figured it out in high school (had a crush on a sweet nerdy guy from the AV club), but didn't publicly come out to friends or family until many years later for a multitude of reasons (didn't want it to interfere with his campaign for mayor and subsequently become another thing he was targeted for post ICE TOWN)

Leslie is super supportive of him (I personally think of her as vaguely queer too but to each their own) and gets him a little bi flag to keep on his desk.

Also I'm like 99.9999% sure that he's autistic, although that took him longer to figure out. For him it was a big moment as he went about reevaluating things throughout his life, and now had an answer to why things ended up that way or why he felt this way.

he's a little less open about that though

He sees Ron as a sort of father figure and takes up any opportunity to know him better (as no one can ever truly know Ron Swanson)

always has a secret aspiration to be one of those movie/game review channels which make tier lists or do game play throughs (like he's a big unraveled/overboard/dimension 20 fan)

[butwyatt]

I'm alive so I'll show my fav Zombies and Descendants characters !

(By the way the numbers are not representative of who's first or last!!)

1) Zombies' Zed

I think it's important to say that Milo Manheim will soon reach 2M followers on ig-

First of all, Zed is good-looking. He is a caring and determined dude and he's just wholesome; a wholesome boyfriend to Addison, a wholesome brother to Zoey, a wholesome friend to everyone and a wholesome son to his dad.

That's it.

2) Zombies' Wyatt

Stuff happened. Idk if I like Wyatt as much as I used to. He changed in my mind because of erm wattpad. . .

He's a great brother to Willa - I mean he understands her and her motives and everything and he supports her too. The proof to that is in the song "We Own the Night", from the second movie, he says:

"She's the alpha, she's the leader, she's the one to trust " (or something similar)

He believes in his sister and that's nice.

3) Descendants' Evie

Oh what is there even to say about Evie? She is kind, understanding and reasonable. She wants to give to the kids of the prison island (I forgot the name-) a better life and, well, that says it all. She is beautiful and truly is a princess.

And she and Mal have lesbian vibes

Also she's a girlboss

4) Descendants' Carlos

Just him oml

Cameron Boyce really rocked the platinum hair

He looks sassy here hehe

Honorable mention:

-Descendants' Harry Hook

The alliteration of his name is very satisfying damn. Also this man almost became a bi icon on screen.

His accent and personality are very swag buut the best thing is his hook. He's emotionally attached to it and, I like to think his dad gave it to him, so that's just sweet.

Mention :

-Beast Ben.

[cloudyhall]

someone write a fanfiction where ben wyatt comes out to leslie as bi please

[sherifftillman]

tagged by @hellfireclubs (ty bby! <3) to list five comfort characters and tag five people!

leslie knope - parks and rec: maybe i wish i could turn my passion into my job like her. maybe i just want my own ben wyatt. who's to say

dani rojas - ted lasso: sweet little sunshine boy, i love him so

alex chen - life is strange: true colors: literally the most accurately written millennial bi woman in any video game

connor - detroit: become human: the most babygirl android you could ever wish for.

janet - the good place: not-a-girl solidarity. <3

no presh: @keerysquinn @pitifulbaby @wordscomehither @quinnsbower @corroded-hellfire

[mummifiedgoose]

This is coming from someone who has never seen B99 or Parks n Rec all the way through so idk how you'd fit this in the context of these shows BUT

Parks gang ends up in Brooklyn and we break out the classic "Jake's ex boyfriend" fanfic trope and at some point he and Ben dated. Or maybe just slept together I don't know.

HILARITY ENSUES

I'm such a sucker for the bi!Ben and bi!Jake headcanons, that's where this is coming from.
