Saw the marvel one and I had a silly thought

Perry made the fanfic because he wanted to see if he had a superhero persona what superhero universe and what type of power is he would have

Also him getting autographs by the two superheroes who are really smart (the person who is hulk is actually a genius if I remember) shows that he is a nerd and those are his favorite superheroes

He purely made the fanfiction out of whimsy and joy even though it's a little cring

iTS A LOT OF CRINGE HAVE YOU SEEN HIS ATROCIOUS OUTFIT

TERRIBLE

HORRIBLE

I DONT EVEN WANNA GOOGLE IT TO PASTE IT IN, I DONT WANNA LOOK AT IT, ITS HORRID, HE BETTER GET CHARACTER DESIGN CLASSES CUZ THAT OUTFIT IS A NIGHTMARE TO LOOK AT

i know this guy is a fashion disaster, but that outfit is crossing a line, even the biggest fashion disaster wouldnt wear THAT, BECAUSE THATS HOW BAD IT IS

The first time you're opening up to Isagi about something in your past that hurt you he is kissing your chest bc it's the closest he can get to kiss your heart and says he is going to take care of it

I've seen some tags on your reblogs saying Joongdunk give off most heterosexual vibes. Can you elaborate on that if you're comfortable speaking about it? Dunk gives off that vibes but Joong gives off disaster bi energy in my opinion.

oh i was referring to them together as a unit when i said that hahaha

like, i know there are some delulu fans who (like to) think they're dating, but to me they're not giving off that vibe at all when they're not actively playing characters in a series? their friendship feels very platonic to me. i don't have any, like, concrete examples but the heterosexual energy comes out esp when they're bro-ing each other, like here right before joong drops a cheesy pick-up line:

and even when they're purposefully flirting with each other (like in the above clip), to me it always feels like it comes with a bit of a wink, as if them "being boyfriends" is an private inside joke between them as well as an inside joke between them as a pair and the fans

when they're together they really give off the energy of this meme to me:

however, indiviudally?? like, separate from each other? i absolutely agree with your assessment. personally, i prefer not to speculate on actors' sexualities bc that's not something i need to know (i mean i don't know them and they have no idea i exist, so like, why would an actor's sexuality be any of my business 🤷‍♀️) but i agree that dunk by himself gives off very heterosexual vibes while joong most definitely has disaster bi energy. again, i don't wanna speculate on his sexuality and i purposefully avoid thinking about it bc that's his own personal thing, but if some day it turned out that joong is not straight, then i wouldn't really be all that surprised tbh

Hey there, are you ok?

hey! thank you for checking up on me, this was really sweet!

i SWEAR i did not die. i just got a bit busy doing SladeRobin Week (which i will finish so help me god-) as well as things in my real life. i'm still trying to find the balance of like. fandom creation and working. i am very lucky to have the living situation that i do rn, but it is the sort of schedule where i do have to be ready to watch a baby at really any given point so. it's a tricky balance right now, but i'm going to be active here again! maybe not as many asks answered a day as before, but i want to try to answer like, a few a day and whatnot.

i also think i got briefly overwhelmed, in that i got more asks faster than i answered them. which is the opposite of a problem and something i'm very lucky for! but it did make it difficult for me to keep up and know what to answer next. (this is *not* a discouragement to sending asks! i love them all and pls send as many as you want! i just am a little slow sometimes so i appreciate the patience! <3)

so! i'm back and i'm good, ty for asking! we are back to the regularly scheduled programming <3

Nine getting jealous that some of the other tailses are growing taller than him (poor boy didn't realize that welding a bunch of robot spider legs to his spine might stunt his growth)

Remember how in the show he always kept using them to gain height on others so he'd be taller and more intimidating? Yeah...

Silly Game Time: Would you rather be fully rested after 1 hour of sleep (but become very lethargic and very irritable during 2 separate and random hours of your day) OR receive a full 8 hours of sleep every night with no other side effects?

You mean to tell me that some eldritch force will make me sleep 8 hours with no insomnia problems, that i get tired enough to sleep well a full 8 hours AND that it all happens at night, presumably at normal hours (11pm - 7am) ???? Fuck dude that doesn't really seem like a choice ?? yes i do want a normal 8 hours of sleep every night from which i feel (somewhat) rested each time ?? I fucking refuse to choose exhaustion, whatever small amounts i'd have when i could just. Sleep normally ???

[xikyuu]

TEEHEE i only started like really listening to yaelokre on friday LMAO like i’d heard harpy hare and i listened to their other stuff and except for the song ‘and the hound’ (SO good and SO underrated btw) most of their music didnt click for me? buf for some reason the stars aligned and now they have been rattling around in my brain for a solid minute

im. not super well versed on the lore either 😭 i read part of the wiki and. i gotta say a lot of stuff on there is NOT in the songs lmao (although tbf there’s like 7 songs out rn and 4 of them are i think about an in-universe folk tale i believe? perhaps?)

in the songs we only have cole and clémente’s backstories (kind of, it’s still a tad vague but we have a general idea) and im pretty sure perregrine is gonna get a song about them as well? thats what ive heard anyways (kingsley my shining light inshallah you will get a song as well)

im gonna stick to just listening to the songs and watching the youtube videos as they come out cause its easier for my smooth little brain to absorb information that way

real. i listen to a few of their songs (and the hound, hartebeast, harpy hare, bird cage blue and yellow, and kid & leveret — the first two and kid & leveret have to be my favs. especially k&l.)

i found them from harpy hare a year ago — literally in the end of april i think — bc i actually did an asl assignment for translating songs into ASL and i chose harpy hare. bad idea bc it was way too fast for me (and i chose it bc it was slower than the other songs i listen to 😭). i think i might still have the asl translations?? but i had to listen to the song over and over bc i had to video myself signing it and. i could not physically stand hearing harpy hare for SEVERAL months. truly hilarious imo.

the stuff in the wiki that’s not mentioned is songs is probably bc yaelokre is pretty interactive w the community. pretty sure there’s a discord server? and ik ive seen some of their tiktok posts about lore.

may i pick ur brain wrt something? you write such a large variety of characters and i think you have great skill in following through with a character's characterization (lol) to their sexual life. i was wondering what do you choose to focus on or how you approach figuring out a character's sexual style (?) when you write? im pretty new to writing smut (i write in general but i usually just fade to black) and im having trouble translating a character's neurosis into sexual acts, particularly when you move beyond the vanilla missionary etc sex (which im not particularly interested in writing even tho i think it can be emotionally poignant in its own right).

what i have most trouble with is like figuring out if a certain act fits character a or character b in my ensemble, say, and then moving through with that. i've been trying to approach it like fighting styles bc of the character's physicality, but there are certain temperamental and moral tensions informing fighting in particular (as a deliverance of violence, i mean) that make it hard for me to pinpoint how to translate that to sex without it feeling shoehorned. for example (and this is just for reference), i have a character who's like a gunslinger and whose style is very explosive and wild and a little bit cocky, but when u look at it under the microscope, his approach is polished and precise and meticulous. and THEN his internality is of a young man with a lot of anger and stunted growth, who really just wants acceptance and affection deep down, and who is so very tired. now i can translate each of those things and its combinations a hundred thousand ways, but which is correct? or faithful to him? at one point it all seems unfathomable to me. and then bc i can't make up my mind i fear everything i write ends up being too plain, or ill-fitting, and because my cast is large, it also all ends up feeling too same-y. has this ever been an issue for you?

first of all - i want to say thank you for entrusting and believing in my writing abilities enough to want to pick my brain about this. i'm not entirely sure what the appeal of my writing is to other people (not in a negative way but more in that its my own stuff so im always critical of it) but i put forth a lot of thought in characterization and translating that into sex as i am primarily a smut writer so while im not the most confident u should come to me for advice, im deeply flattered and will do my best anyway

i'll be real though, the best advice is genuinely just not to overthink it and go with your gut. have some faith in your own writing voice and ideas etc. but anyway

there are a lot of layers to this question and i'll do my best to go through it bit-by-bit. and i don't know if this will really help you since it might come off vague

if i can offer you any advice on characterizing well in a smut scene, it's to not view the smut as a separate entity to your work but as an integral part of it's infrastructure. do not treat the smut scene as part of the work, but as a pillar of it.

the other thing is understanding what is personally compelling to u or arousing about this characters storyline or personality. and not arousing as in physical lust, but what concepts tickle you and make you want to write.

the truth is there's no objectively correct way to characterize a character especially if they're nuanced and complex. which is why all writing is subjective in a sense.

ultimately, it's your job as the author to choose what characterization you like best and convince the audience it's the correct one.

for example, the character you're describing is multifaceted. there are several ways you can take the direction of the story

their outward persona is being a cocky gunslinger who is inwardly polished, meticulous, sensitive and tired. all of these traits can be expanded upon into sexual acts based on your will as the writer - so you have to ask yourself, what aspect of this character is the most arousing to you as a writer or what is this sex scene intending to display about a character. what trait of theirs are you hoping to highlight through sex?

to translate these things into sex gets really tricky and is honestly something you have to experiment with until you feel it click.

for me - if i were attempting to write this character, the breakdown process would look something like this.

this character has a personality gap of being a cocky gunslinger but is actually polished and meticulous

this means they they are likely concerned with appearances.

something in their past must've brought them to that conclusion. if they are continuing to outwardly project themselves as a reckless gunslinger - it is is likely not their "true" self.

what would make a character with this many defense show their true selves, or what other characters cause this character to demonstrate to their true selves?

the translation process of eroticism can go in a hundred different languages. if i personally were writing this character, i might pair them with an older mentor type of character, or a nonchalant rival. i might put them in a situation that requires a different kind of vulnerability and forces them to expose some of their nature for the sake of their ideals

as an author, im aroused by the idea of them showing their submission and affectionate side. trying to subconsciously appeal to authority figures might be interesting if i'm trying to demonstrate their lack of validation. the opposite can also be true, that a character like this might resent mentor / authority figures that impede their own ideas and trying to highlight their anger. writing this gunslinger lashing out at a fellow gunslinger they respect can easily be turned into erotica.

you could pair this character with a nonchalant rival type. a direct opposite that challenges a characters morals ideological belief or perhaps - understands them through their differences. this rival character pays enough attention to the gunslinger to know that they are polished and special. while they are rivals, there's something legitmate in their dynamic to this sensitive, tired character who puts up a facade and wants to be understood.

your own arousal as an author comes in here and where you have to make choices.

lets say then, i go with the latter. i would then structure the story or chapter around this idea through by demonstrating the push and pull of their relationship. i would subvert this characters personality through the framework of submission and a desire for acceptance. i'd write the erotica about the slow crescendo to sex with their rival who seems to accept them fully. i'd write about their different meetings, choosing small things to represent larger themes. maybe their rival praises their technique or offers them a listening ear. i use those small moments to build up to the intimacy and weave the erotic stuff into the story itself so when the sex comes it feels gratifying and releases tension (lol)

for the actual sex stuff you just have to go with your gut and distinguish things based on what traits you're showing. maybe this characters need for affection and rest makes them a whiny bottom. as a writer, i'd monopolize that. i'd point out their eagerness to please through desperation like kissing or nuzzle, and i'd have their words contradict their actions to display their personality gap etc

for me being structured around erotica means going through that kind of mental process and and building a story framework from the ground up and aiming for a proper sex scene. the erotica process is weaved into the plot mechanisms, the metaphors, the stories ideology. the smut is the point, and every action is central to emphasizing what is going to end up happening. my better examples of this lately are probably uncle sukuna rip

ive been writing smut for long enough now that i do not struggle with it and it's easy for me to come up with a unique character voice and do all the above sort of automatically in my mind. and i know it can feel intimidating.

the best advice i can give you though again is don't overthink it which ik seems contradictory to all of the above advice. but sometimes you just have to let yourself go with the flow and believe in your own abilities. trust your gut and just shoot straight ahead.

i hope this was bale to help u some!!

Oh shit I just realized that Sir Pen is gonna learn that Alastor sold his soul. Cause I'm assuming that people who sold their souls look different then those who didn't. THAT'S gonna be a reaction. Or he's gonna assume "Eh, it's Al. Maybe that's just what it looks like normally."

How dare you look at my mental notes-

I imagine he'd be too scared to look at Alastor's soul at first because "what if he can tell I'm looking at his soul?? 😭😭"

And then he gets the balls to do it and just goes "HOLY SHIT YOU SOLD YOUR SOUL??" because y e a h, sold souls look quite distinct compared to souls who still belong to their mortal bodies! the chains may look different but they are still there nonetheless

Rip penne, you were a real one pfffff-

[mintytealfox]

now the aftermath of all the crap should actually be hilarious tho. like imagine having to explain to your colleagues that you got kidnapped by a bunch of poachers/scientists and getting rescued by your human-orca friend who somehow temporarily became a Greek statue

or just talking about it after like "remember when you became an old statue"

hold on, speaking of which, how would Norton even swim aren't statues heavy as hell?

LOOOOOOOOOOOOLL I knew this would come up

lets just say

I am not using the word 'massive' lightly here

-WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZZEEEEEEE-

bro is 'walking' on the ocean floor

Poseidon acting aaahhhzzzz

looks like they found out where Atlantis was built PFF

can i ask what you (or the anon) mean by hoseok calling himself a “big coward while talking about the weight loss” ?

when did he say this? did he mean he was too ashamed to lose weight?

I'm pretty sure it was in a livestream, he was very aware of the fact he lost a lot of weight during JITB era and how much of it was due to overwork and stress. If I remember correctly (sorry it's been a while) but he was ashamed he lost so much weight. 'Cause he's not usually the one to let his health deteriorate so noticeably, he takes really good care of his body, so the fact it was SO noticeable really proved this specific period of time was just that atrociously handled for him. Half the reason the fandom gets so fucking heated about the JITB era is how clearly draining it was on him, but like, that's literally BigHit's fault. But some ARMY will have you believe it was our fault, j-hope fans are why j-hope lost so much weight, was so overworked, was so stressed out...('cause this makes sense right? LOL)

I am going to seriously consider not going to high school the first hours tomorrow (practically just going for my two exams) because what an awful night I am having. Anxiety + tummy aches is the worse combination I could possibly have right now.
