You've never really gone hiking before and it's proven itself to be a lot more difficult than you originally thought it would be. You like to explore places you've never been, spooky places. more for the thrill. you started filming it and posting your videos on youtube. You usually take some friends along, but all of your friends decided to be little babies this time since the place you're exploring is extra creepy this time. It's a large forest 20 miles away from your city. You borrowed your mom's car to get here. you always tell them you're at a friend's house because they'd kill you if they ever found out you're putting yourself in possibly harmful situations. This forest is known for creepy sightings, disappearances, ghosts, and lots of other things your viewers would love to watch. You've been to abandoned hospitals, cemeteries, tunnels, all that good stuff. You don't think you'll actually see anything, but you brought a can of pepper spray just in case.

The wind howls, making the trees dance above you. The shapes that were once branches in the day have turned into long gangly fingers that desperately reach for you and the bushes now house entities with red eyes and fangs that you imagine want to tear you to pieces! "Wow, guys. This might just be the scariest one yet, haha. There's probably some sort of scp in here with me haha!" You try to keep yourself company by talking to your soon-to-be viewers when you post this, but it's really just to keep you calm.

"I'm a bit lost. The trail kinda disappeared somewhere around here, I think. there's just so much long grass and it's more of a footpath than an actual trail." you complain as you try to spot any familiar landmarks. It's almost impossible. It might be easier in the day for sure, but the night masks everything. You step over decayed logs and large roots, feeling worry set in. What if you're really lost!? Your thoughts come to an abrupt stop when you hear a strange sound not too far from where you're standing. Your blood freezes as you feel a cold sweat coming on. Maybe...maybe it's a person? And maybe they can help you?..or..a monster!? No, (Y/n), this is no time to be silly! That could be a person willing to help you before you get yourself completely lost!

Little did you know you were already a mile deep, walking in the wrong direction.

“I heard a sound. It could be someone who could help me get back on track.” You whisper. You turn off your video camera's flash light and carefully make your way to where you heard the sound, being careful not to step on anything that could alert whatever it is of your presence. You don’t want to startle it, just in case it's an animal willing to protect its territory from invaders like yourself. The sound came from below you. There's a rocky slope leading down to a river. You get down on your knees and peer between the long grass. You can't make out much in the dim moonlight... until you spot a giant of a man dragging a sack through the shallow water. His size alone sends shivers down your spine. Even from where you're crouching, you could tell he would dwarf you the way a cat would to a mouse. You examine him a bit more.The sack is stained in a dark colour that is seeping through the fabric and into the water. You don't dare move a muscle or even breathe. You can't believe your eyes. This can't be real. Are you in a horror movie?

You make sure he disappears behind the tree line with the mysterious sack before letting out a breath. You didn't want to accidentally alert him of your presence in any shape or form. He was probably just a hunter. Yeah, he could have helped you, but he also could have added you to the wet sack and you were not risking that.

You stand up and turn around, ready to get as far away from here as possible, only to bump your nose into a tree. The collision causes you to drop your camera. That's strange. You don't remember walking around a tree to look over the cliff. You rub your nose in annoyance. Wait a minute... This tree didn't have rough bark like the rest of them...Your brain blanks out. You've been in denial this entire time, your brain working extra hard to rationalize what's happening. Before you is a large torso. You can't even see their shoulders from how close you're standing, just a wide, firm chest. You crane your neck up and it takes you a good three seconds before your brain registers that you're looking at the man from before..and he's wearing a mask!

He looks down at you with a focused gaze. You let out a short scream and try to run away, but being within arm's reach of the giant makes it too easy for him to simply reach out and grab the back of your top. He lifts you off your feet with one arm and brings you to his eye level. He cocks his head to the side, observing you slowly. He looks down at the camera you dropped and places his large boot on it, pressing down and crushing it. You start to hyperventilate. He's gonna chop you up and wear your skin, he's gonna keep you in a dark hole and shout "It rubs the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again!" You thrash in his iron grip, pushing at his large hand and sobbing untellable pleas for mercy, but your begging falls on deaf ears. "I-I'm sorry. I-I'll leave, I promise! Please let me go! I-I didn't mean to bother you, I'm sorry!" You cry. Your little struggle seems to have made your shirt ride up a bit, showcasing your supple flesh to his thirsty eyes. His eyes laser focus on your bare skin.

To your confusion, his hand reaches to caress your skin, feeling the smooth texture before slowly moving up. You wiggle more, scared of where this is going. His hand soon finds your breast and cups it before giving it a squeeze. He shudders. His breathing becomes heavier as he continues to mess with your body, his thumb rolling over your nipple. All you can do is whimper and wiggle in his hold. his hand begins sliding down and you scream. You suddenly remember you brought a can of pepper spray, whipping it out of your back pocket and pointing it at his face. Then as you were about to press down and unleash the fire juice, it was gone. In his hand that was previously molesting you lies the remains of your poor pepper spray, crushed and bubbling pathetically. He was so fast you hadn't even realized he snatched it. You just stare at him in horror. To your surprise, he's not even mad, too preoccupied with the need to explore your privates. You hold his wrist and look into his eyes. He looks back into yours as if telling you to stop. You hesitantly let go, and he nods as if to tell you that you've made the right decision. His hand cups your pussy through your jeans, pressing in a bit at the entrance. He seems eager.

He lifts you higher and uncomfortably sets you on his shoulder, his hand on your ass to keep you in place. You don't even bother struggling. You'll wait for an opportunity. If this man wanted you dead, you'd be dead. You don't want to provoke him. From your spot on his shoulder, You notice that he's got a hunting rifle strapped to his back along with a machete. He has an assortment of things attached to his hips among them being a hunting knife and bullet pocket. You shiver. One more off-putting thing that's just about forcing bile up your throat is that he's also covered in a dark wet liquid. You haven't noticed till now, but you haven't been breathing so his smell has now come to your attention. He smells strongly of iron. To that, you're not very surprised.

He starts marching down the hill you were previously watching him from. You have no idea how you saw him disappear through the treeline and he still managed to sneak up on you. He picks up the large stained sack where he left it in favor of locating his little spying mouse. It smells awful, the meaty smell assaulting your senses every second. It's been 15 minutes and an opportunity to escape has not shown itself. This is it. This is how you die. Your body will never be found. Maybe in a few years in a shallow grave by some hiker if you're lucky. This inhuman mass of muscle is going to cut you up and eat you. Maybe even skip cutting you up. He could probably eat you whole as pre-workout. He lifts his leg to step over a large log, his grip on your ass slightly loosening just enough for you to catch him off guard and slip off his shoulder. You grunt as you fall into the dirt and leaves behind him. You scramble up before the giant can scoop you up. You run in a random direction. You just needed to get away from him, getting out of the forest was a problem for later. You didn't even think about how fast he'd be. How could someone be so big and fast!? He took off after you and suddenly, he was on your ass. You've never felt such a primal fear as he chased you like a hungry animal.

A large hand grabs your shoulder and rips you backwards. You fall on your back and stare up at the man now on his knees in front of you, his body completely casting a shadow before yours. He gets down on his hands, caging you too the ground, his body inches above yours. You stare into the holes of his mask and into his rabid eyes. He leans in by your neck. You stop breathing once again, you think your heart stopped. You feel something large and hard pressing roughly into your crotch. You hear him take a deep breath and smell you..."Smells nice." His voice is deep and rough, but it sounds like he rarely uses it. You scream and begin to cry again, not being able to take it anymore. You fight him with all your might. He grabs your wrists with one hand. You hear him chuckle a bit before his hand comes up to cup your check. He suddenly squeezes it and twists your face around to get a better look at your features. He grinds his hips against yours, teasing you of what's to come. He roughly releases your face, before standing to his full height and dragging you up with him. He tosses you back over his shoulder, this time with an almost bone-crushing grip. “Name.” His tone is commanding. When you fail to answer right away, his fingers press into the area on your crotch. Threatening to rip right through. “(Y/n)! My name is (Y/n)!” He hums in response.

Hot tears run down your cheeks as he walks back over to where he left his murder mystery sack. He navigates through the forest as he knows it like the back of his hand until he comes upon a clearing where his home stands. A lonely wooden cabin. He drops the gooey meat bag on the ground. You cringe at the wet sound it makes on impact. You peer over at the sack to see a human hand flop out. Before you could react, he slams his hand over your mouth painfully. "Shut up." He waits for you to nod before removing his hand. He opens his front door and steps inside. It smells musty, like old wood and man smell. Not bad, but not amazing either. He walks up his stairs and sets you on a very large bed. You take a deep breath in, your stomach sore from being jabbed by his shoulder for the entirety of the long walk.

He doesn't let you get comfortable though. His hands are on you in an instant, grabbing your clothes and ripping them to shreds like tissue paper, you're naked before you could even hold any of your clothes together. Hungry eyes leer over you through his mask. You feel his hot breath fan you through the bottom of his mask. "S-stop it, please! Don't hurt me!" You beg. As if to mock your plea, his rough hand grips your plush thigh a little too close to your cunt and squeezes it tightly before shoving it against your chest, making room for himself between them.

He releases you for a moment, only to unzip his uncomfortably tight pants. You shut your eyes and look away, only to feel the soul-crushing weight of his cock slam against your lower stomach. You writhe underneath him, small sobs and hiccups coming from your mouth every few seconds. He pauses for a moment but ultimately decides to continue. You peer up between your wet palms and see him rubbing the tree trunk between his thighs while looking down at your pathetic form.

"W-wait! I-I'm not rea-" He grabs your thighs and forces you closer to him and lines his cock up with your entrance, he slides it up and down your folds, causing you to shudder. He doesn't care if you're ready or not. You shut your eyes as he presses forth. You scream in pain. It won't go in. You're too tight, he's too big and you're dry. The tip can't even get through. You whimper in pain. It burns. You need moisture. He lifts his mask a bit and you get a peek of his jaw. It's noticeably sharp and covered in stubble. You feel his saliva plap against your poor dry cunt before he puts his mask back into place. He tries to enter you again. You yelp. He gets a bit through before he can't anymore. He sighs. He was trying to be gentle. He didn't want to break you so quickly...

He grips your thighs tightly. You feel his nails dig in. You barely have time to register the pain before you feel like you're being ripped in two. He's forcing his way in. You immediately let out a scream and begin spazzing. He just continues until he reaches his base, more than snug against your insides. Drool leaks past the corner of your lip as you stare off into space. He breathes heavily and stares at the bulge he created in your lower stomach. He brushes his hand over it and watches as you whimper and twitch. He pulls his hips back and watches it disappear before ramming himself in again and seeing it jab through your insides. He chuckles.

You lay there, unable to do anything but feel what he's doing to you. You lift your arm and place it on his lower stomach, hoping to stop him that way. You feel his rock-hard abs through his shirt and push. "You're...adorable...fuck.. you're tight." He groans before he slams himself deep inside and you clench around him. He hisses and struggles to pull out halfway, your insides trying to pull him back in. He slams in again and presses himself as deeply as he can, firmly hugging your cervix with his cock. Your eyes cross as he thrusts in and out, keeping a proper pace. Moans spill from your lips along with jumbled-up words he can't make out, all of which sound like music to his ears.

He leans over you, forcing himself snugly against you again, his mask right next to your cheek. He groans as he feels you twitch around him. "Feel..so good... was worried you'd rip... you're only bleeding a little." You can hear the smug grin in his tone.

It feels so good. You're so ashamed, feeling good when you're being raped by a maniac. You clench your tear-filled eyes as he pounds into your aching cunt. The knot in your lower stomach bursts as you cum. He moans as you tighten around him. He stills for a second, just enjoying how you feel before he pounds into you like a feral beast. You're surprised your pelvis is holding up. He grips your waist tight and grunts as he empties his balls deep inside you. You can almost feel yourself getting pregnant. You feel too full. Your stomach bloats with cum. You feel hot and fuzzy. Your pussy is so very sore and your legs are numb. He pants above you. "I've been thinking of getting myself a little wife like you." He says as he slowly pulls his still throbbing cock out with a wet 'pop'. "You're a pretty little thing and you take my cock well. Be grateful I'm letting you live as my cock sleeve." He stands up, towering over your crumpled body once again. "My name is Eden. Your duties from now on are cooking, cleaning, mending my clothes and taking my seed. Do not make me repeat these orders. Object and I won't hesitate to remind you of your place. I was gentle this time." His giant cock is still dripping your juices. You can't stop looking at it. Ge takes notice and climbs over you before grabbing your head and forcing you close to his groin. "I see you love cock. Lick it clean then like a good wife. go on."

You look up at him and hesitate a bit too long. You see anger flash in his eyes and you quickly envelop his tip in your mouth. He groans as you lick your mixed juices off, going as deep as you can without choking. He moans and grabs the back of your head. He stares down at you with such intensity that you can feel him burning holes into you. You suddenly feel your throat being invaded and your nose pressing into his pubic hair, nose pressing into his crotch. He moves you back and forth, face fucking you. You struggle to breathe properly through your nose. You let out muffled whimpers and cries, sending vibrations through his cock. He grunts in pleasure before you feel a load of hot thick liquid being shot into your mouth and down your throat. You're so tired. He slowly pulls his cock back and laughs at your exhausted state. Your head flops back onto the bed, your jaw and lips so incredibly sore and raw feeling. "Good girl." He says before your sight fades to black. You explored a bit too much.

I love the series and everything about it is *chefs kiss*

The broke ankle tags made me laugh so much and honestly the idea of Steve just being such a tank that he doesn’t even realize he’s seriously injured himself is so canon.

Can’t wait for the corresponding compilation toks of Steve just doing everything you aren’t supposed to do with a broken ankle.

Also since we all obviously are obsessed with bitchy Steve I need bitchy Steve coming out of anesthesia or something similar. Just not even a bit aware but confident as hell that he is not wrong.

I appreciate you and thank you so much for this series! It’s my favorite part of the day ❤️

Thank you!!!!! This is so good, but I am going to leave Steve on anesthesia for another time because I got a different ask that mentions it and I’m going to focus on Steve completely disregarding everything the doctors told him.

To be fair though, Steve was not listening.

They’d already given painkillers by the time they started explaining things and frankly, it was boring. Steve was a high school athlete and a teenaged monster hunter. He’s had his fair share of injuries. He’s sprained his ankle before and this isn’t much different. Same arena, different game. It’s like how the ice rink is used for hockey and figure skating.

“It’s not like that at all,” Eddie tells him after painstakingly carrying Steve into the house (something that was much easier to do when they were in their twenties) and into their bedroom. He elevates Steve’s foot. He gets his water and a snack, and an extra blanket so he has no reason to get up, and he finds Steve in the kitchen the next morning. Standing on his injured ankle.

Eddie films him – mainly to send to Robin but also to prove once and for all that Steve is not the sensible one. He starts with Steve’s messy bedhead and goes down his body, pass his Scooby Doo pajama pants to Steve’s bandaged ankle. He’s got an ice pack rested against it so there’s that.

Eddie doesn’t say anything like he’s at a lose for words and then just, “Why?”

For everybody following Eddie’s page, you get to see him become visibly more and more stressed every time he posts something. He posts a video of Steve on the way to see if he needs surgery and Steve is explaining his hockey metaphor again. He also says, “It’s probably just a sprain. It feels like one. What do they know anyways?”

“What do the doctors know?” Eddie asks. “Lucas was the one that said it was broken.”

“Lucas once forgot that bowls exist, Eddie.”

He posts a complication later that day because Steve is definitely going to have to have surgery because he definitely broke his ankle. Steve is doing his absolute most to be doing anything while still technically following the rules.

The doctor said ice, elevate, and rest.

In Eddie’s compilation, Steve is vacuuming but he’s laying on the floor with his feet propped up on the couch so it’s still technically elevated. Steve ices his ankle with a slushie he produced out of thin air in the time it took Eddie to check the mail. He swears he never got up.

Steve nearly falls on his ass using crutches, alternating between the bedroom and the living room so he can ‘rest.’ Eddie takes Ozzy out and finds Steve cooking, but he’s got his ankle resting on the counter (Steve is not that flexible, this one hurt him).

The compilation ends with Ozzy getting fed up with both of them and laying on Steve so he can’t move.

#Steve could and has spent all day on the couch but the moment he is told he is supposed to he can’t. he’ll go insane just sitting there #steve harrington #eddie munson #eddie munson tiktok saga

Thank you so much for your thorough response. I'm not always good at following production companies. Please ignore this if I'm overstepping, I've already asked for a lot of your time and research, but other than 9naa are there other companies you boycott because of how they treat actors? I know there were some issues with 2moons and I know there were some issues for Saint, though those were long before my time in the fandom.

That's completely understandable. There's so many companies now that do BL - some of them aren't even primarily into entertainment (a skincare company did The Promise, and I think there's at least one car dealership delving into BL things now too, while other companies are purely for investment and why would you even follow those if they're only about money?).

I'm trying to stay up-to-date because I'm interested in the industry side of things but I probably missed a lot of stuff as well.

Here's what I know for sure:

Motive Village

Motive Village did 2Moons. Then they did 2Moons2 with the same characters (and story!) but all different actors. THEN they did 2Moons: The Ambassador with (some of) the same characters (and story) and different actors again.

Why did they do that? Probably because they're so bad at managing their actors that they're all collectively running away as soon as possible. But that's not even the worst part. One of the actors from 2Moons2, Din Teerapat (then known as Earth Teerapat), was actively excluded and blocked from all promotion while being completely trapped in his contract. Other actors weren't paid and were badly mismanaged. Then there's very serious allegations that Din might have been (I'm phrasing this as carefully as possible) harrassed by one of MV's higher-ups. Din never spoke about it and has since decided to move on.

Aam Anusorn, who directed 2Moons2 (and isn't related to MV in any way) has spoken up about this, and his series Call It What You Want is supposedly based on some of what happened.

Other actors who "escaped" MV include Bas Suradej, Copter Panuwat, Kimmon Warudom (who went on to sign with Star Hunter for a while and did the very delightful Gen Y which is basically 2Moons fanfiction), Tae Darvid & Tee Thanapon (who did Triage), Boun Noppanut (who was never with MV but wasn't paid for his guest role in 2Moons), Joong Archen, Pavel Naret, Benjamin Brasier & Dome Woranart. The latest escapee seems to be Park Anandatej who will be in Monster next Door.

Benjamin Brasier and Dome Woranart seem to be back to working with Motive Village recently and I'm honestly a bit ?? ??? about it.

Y.Entertainment

Y.Ent did Unforgotten Night and For Him the Series. Recently, the leads of For Him, Tor Atagorn and Dew Nitikorn (along with Yoon Phusanu who starred in Unforgotten Night and had a cut guest role in For Him), have come forward saying that they were never paid for their work in For Him. Additionally, Tor has opened up about being continuously harrassed and stalked by someone on and off set during filming. It affected him so badly that he is now in therapy and on medication for depression and anxiety.

Just yesterday Yoon Phusanu held a press conference because he still hasn't been paid. He's one of the few actors who actually have the means to hire lawyers and go against his company. His lawyer has stated that not many young actors in Thai BL can afford to do the same.

9NAA

9NAA did Check Out, Venus in the Sky and, most recently, Kiseki Chapter 2. You know about 9NAA already but for everyone else reading this and wanting to know what's going on with them, here's a short summary.

Here's some other companies involved in Thai BL who have done some mildly questionable things:

Maximon who have since rebranded as Harikarn (with another company now named Maximon that might also have been emerged from the original Maximon... it's complicated) might have not paid their actors for Chains of Heart until the series had long finished airing. Haii Sarunsathorn and Boom Raweewit, the leads, made some very carefully worded joke tweets about it - which kind of makes you go hmmmm. There was also a freelancer who spoke up about not getting paid for his art, but nothing more ever came of it. Both Maximon and Harikarn have since ramped up production again - with some of the same actors - so I'm not especially concerned for the moment.

Well.Thailand recently annouced a bunch of new BLs and then promptly went bancrupt. One of their former producers immediately picked up the slack and founded EntSync in order to take over all projects and talent. They've already held the blessing ceremony for Black Forest and everything seems to be back to normal for the moment except for Born to be Y the series which should have aired this month but has since been indefinitely postponed.

Fix Entertainment is behind The Whisperer and is holding the series' final episode hostage because apparently a planned fanmeeting didn't sell enough tickets so they seem to have run out of funds. This is very ?? ???

Studio on Fire recently announced that one of the leads of their upcoming series Live in Love will be replaced, citing creative differences and "different work attitudes" (hate that phrase yet?) as the reason. Weirdly enough, said lead (Non Ratchanon) is from another company and was part of an acting pair with their own actor Hearth Chindanai. Hmmmmmm.*

*This kind of reminds me of what happened with Saint Suppapong during and after Love By Chance when he was basically almost bullied out of the industry because he wasn't with the same company as all of the other actors.

As I said, there's probably more but I didn't include actor scandals, unfounded rumours or stuff that has already been resolved.

#ask #bl industry #jane watches stuff #you guys pls feel free to add more examples #i didn't include jinloe because as weird as we think it is to cast a minor opposite an adult in a mature bl #it's neither illegal nor exploitative by default #i also didn't include what happened during love by chance and after why r u because this was purely due to inappropriate management #and what happened with goldeneyesview recently is actually incredibly sad and i urge you to support love syndrome the beginning

Kaiju Week in Review (February 25-March 2, 2024)

youtube

Brush of the God is finally out in the world, having premiered at the Osaka Asian Film Festival on March 2. Above is the most recent trailer, looking as impressive as ever. A more complete cast list is out too—Yumiko Shaku, Takumi Saitoh, Shiro Sano, and Shinji Higuchi are all in it. Haven't seen any reviews in English yet, but I suspect it's something special.

Lots of comic news this week, but I'm giving Godzilla: War for Humanity #4 its own section because it continues to be so stellar. In the penultimate issue, Godzilla finally comes face-to-face with Zoospora—with the odds now thoroughly stacked against him. Ends on a great cliffhanger, with emotional catharsis reached but a world-class kaiju still left to beat.

Every Monsterverse film has an obligatory graphic novel tie-in, and they've never felt more obligatory than Godzilla x Kong: The Hunted. Kong has the A-plot, taking on the Titan Hunter, a mech piloted by the owner of a construction company who (surprise!) lost his family in 2014. It's pretty amusing watching him get high on his own supply fighting second-rate Titans before an unarmed Kong dismantles him, but the character is just too generic. Godzilla's B-plot is just a protracted setup for the film. (I'm keeping my description vague because the identity of his Titan opponent hasn't been revealed in GxK's marketing yet.) I hope this is Brian Buccellato's last time writing Godzilla, as Fight or Flight and the first five issues of Justice League vs. Godzilla vs. Kong weren't much better, but I probably shouldn't be optimistic. Zid's art is unsurprisingly the highlight, though he's sharing space with Dario Formisani and Drew Johnson. Some stunningly bad scaling and weird-looking Godzillas on those pages. Note that the comic is only (officially) available to backers of the hardcover edition on Kickstarter right now; the paperback edition comes out on March 26, a few days before Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire.

Titanic Creations has released a cover for their Gorgo Legacy graphic novel (amusingly Approved by the Monster Code Authority). It's written by Mac McClintock and Patrick McEvoy, with the latter also illustrating, and will be 60 pages long. Releases summer 2024, with plans for two more.

Volume 7 of Kaiju Girl Caramelise also released last week, and while I was hoping to share my thoughts on it, none of my local libraries have stocked it yet. So here's a simple reminder that it exists.

Netflix's Ultraman: Rising now has a poster and a June 14 release date. S.H. FigureArts and Movie Monster Series figures for the film have also been revealed.

youtube

Gameplay videos for Godzilla x Kong: Titan Chasers are starting to show up on YouTube, courtesy of early-access invites going out. Reminds me of that Avengers Alliance game I played for all of a week. And a new month means new Godzilla Battle Line characters; this time it's GMK King Ghidorah and a Biollante variant. They're also overhauling All-Star Battle Mode later this month, letting you chose 50 units to deploy against the CPU (so less underleveled four-stars and other chaff ruining your runs).

I think a fundamental problem with a lot of vampire media is that a vampire is not supposed to be a zombie. it is supposed to be a human who surrendered to their own vices and flaws. the flaws of cowardice in the face of death and the vices of pleasure and gluttony.

which is why vampires can be made very versatile. As much as I don't really like Twilight, it is still a story of dealing with vices with creatures that fundamentally have allowed themselves to be dominated by them.

which is why i really like the movie Renfield.

THATS RIGHT YOU BITCH ASS MOTHERFUCKER YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE GOING TO READ A SCATCHING BITCH AND MOAN SESSION ABOUT THE SATURATION OF SHITTY VAMPIRE MOVIES BUT NOW YOUR TRAPPED HERE READING MY THOUGHTS AND OPINIONS ON A NICK CAGE MOVIE, SIT DOWN SWEETHEART IM NOT GONNA BE DONE YAPPING FOR A FUCKING COUNTRY MINUTE

Renfield 2023 is a movie starring Nicholas Hoult, Nicolas Cage and Awkwafina.

Renfield if you do not know is the fanatical familiar from the original bram stokers dracula movie. the human who in exchange for aiding dracula in their dark dealings would perhaps gift him with the same dark curse, making renfield a fellow child of the night.

This movie takes place Years afterwards after a very serious battle with the last vampire hunters of the modern day and age. Dracula has suffered Severe damage from the fight and has Renfield aid him in taking refuge within the depths of an asylum while he recovers.

Here we get into the meat and potatoes of the movie, as much of a sin as it sounds, it does focus on nick cage as dracula but instead on nicholas holt as the aforementioned Stooge prime renfield. Renfield, between his random killings in order to sate the blood lust of his master, becomes more and more acquainted with the new modern world, undergoing the most harrowing journey of them all...

Therapy.

Renfield over the years has lost his spark of mad fanaticism and is worried not only with his relationship with Dracula but his relationship with himself. Aiding at least one by attending an abusive partners support group to find victims. Mostly abusive partners and criminals.

This is very notable because it's already setting up the original themes of vampires. Your cowardice and your vices. It sets up Renfield as a true coward whose vice is his love of dracula, or more exactly his desire to Be Like dracula. Enough so that even though he wants to feel better about himself- to feel less like a monster- he still follows dracula's demands in killing people who he has decided to pass judgment on.

Oh sorry i forgot a detail, renfield is a power ranger and his morpher is eating bugs. He gains some vampire powers everytime he eats a bug and does some john wick shit but thats not my deal, i dont care if renfield can do a sick back flip and punch a guy (complete fucking lie, the action scenes in this movie are so god damn rad sometimes, please watch this movie, please please please!!!)

The movie splits into a couple of different story lines. One being Renfield attempting to balance his burgeoning need to have a functioning moral compass and his romance with awkwafina character, rebecca the detective. Rebecca the detective attempting to balance both the rash of murder cases and a rash of mob related crimes in order to avenge her father, and the mob themselves attempting to figure out who is wiping out their foot soldiers.

I'm not going to harp on the story for long so let's start talking about renfield.

Renfield is a hypocrite, and it's made apparent throughout the film that he is a hypocrite. Despite wanting to be a good person he is still a murder. He has doomed multiple people to die across the world. He left his wife and child to be with dracula. He has done so much to cut himself off from his own humanity that it's almost insane that he wants to run back to it because Dracula has not yet answered renfields desire to be a true vampire.

This all is blended into the idea of having dracula be a parallel to an abusive narcissistic partner in a relationship. Which in all accounts throughout the movie is true and we're going to bounce back and forth from that for a bit so buckle up bud.

The main ire of the movie is that Renfield wants to push his problems that he has gained away onto Dracula without acknowledging his roles in them. Again we see that cowardice. Renfield cannot stand to see his own faults. He listens to Dracula both out of fear and admiration. At the start of the movie I mentioned that Dracula sustained heavy hits from the last vampire hunters. Well I forgot to mention how he survived. Lets go ahead and listen in Real Close to what he says

youtube

The hunters had dracula dead to rights if you can dare to pardon my puns. Trapped in a binding circle, burning in holy flames and about to get skewered through his heart. The dialogue is specific, Dracula makes no specific promises but notes that Renfield is complicit and that regardless of whatever Dracula has done, he is still his greatest ally. We play on that cowardice and that vice. That desire to be near dracula or be like dracula contrasted with his fear of the repercussions of his actions.

Snap back to reality and we see that Renfield is still struggling with this. He does not want to face the repercussions of his actions so he continues doing as instructed by Dracula while also indulging in his vices, his desire for escapism by delving into all of these new things. Vigilantism, pushing his problems onto dracula, pretending that he is at the moment capable of having a new life while still using dracula's powers to attain it.

Ah but now we need to introduce the main concept of this film. That being the portrayal of Dracula as an abusive partner with narcissism. Dracula plays on renfields, and says it with me in class, Vices and Cowardice. He knows what to say to make Renfield back down. He knows all his fuck ups and exactly what renfield wants, that being to have a simple life with dracula, but not in a gay way of course, we still have to have a straight romance sub plot, i mean its insane to think that renfield wants to bone dracula its not like dracula promises to be his salvation while he is suspended in air in a soft whispery voice while renfield stares at him with all the gale of a oculerly enlarged puppy but hey what do i know? I unironiclly read isekais, my media literacy must be that of a brain dead lemur.

We can see this played out in this scene here

youtube

Dracula knows how to keep the hook in renfield's mouth both taught and loose enough to keep him at the perfect level of knuckle dragging dejection to ensure that he runs back begging. In that while yes he is right that renfield at so many points gave in to his own desires and *coy eye to the audience as I listen to them scream “vices” at me.*. He has begun to make an earnest attempt to become a better person. Better late than never.

Thus renfields true growth is him rejecting that which made him so close with dracula, the rejection of what makes a vampire and vampire. He embraces his cowardice by both admitting to what he is and now allowing himself to push his own crimes onto dracula, and then standing up to dracula, and then rejecting his vices when once again dracula makes him the same offer. To be that same shield towards himself and his own shortcomings rather than deal with a life without a master. Despite it being possible in the future coming with the promise of being a full vampire like himself.

Look guys, let's not juggle bowling pins and call it arm wrestling, Watch Renfield. Its a good movie and nick cage is fucking awasome, thanks.

Note

one video game site describing the game's premise:

"In the trailer, Harker was perceived as a much more efficient and courageous vampire hunter, as opposed to the classic portrayal of Jonathan Harker in Bram Stoker’s books and films, including Dracula."

sir... sir... he literally killed dracula in the book...

You know.

I think this broke me just a little more. My camel back was already broken under so many straws, but I think this one made me collapse back in on myself.

So.

There's a lot to be said about the inspirational power of great works of media. Stories and masterpieces that spur wonder, love, and awe. The ones that give you a goal to aspire to in your own creative endeavors. The strive to match up to something great can do a lot.

But I'll tell you, friend. There is nothing quite as empowering as pure, unbridled spite. Just full-on loathing for every piece of half-assed, fan fictionified, self insert-riddled, character-botching, absolute shrug of a creative work that tries to hide under the disguise of a public domain title to cover for its inadequacies, and not only getting away with it because so much of the audience hasn't read the book, not only profiting off of it, but leaving a nigh irremovable stain on the entire pop cultural mind that is so hugely, categorically, monstrously Wrong, that the 'understanding' of the book and its characters is treated as offhand. Because 'everyone knows' it.

"Sure! Everyone knows Jonathan Harker doesn't have any real vampire hunting experience! That's all Van Helsing's shtick, what with him being the very definite for-real nemesis of Dracula, ha ha! Nice of these video game people to give the little guy a shot, eh?"

Just. Wow.

I am ready to make so, so much Jonathan Harker shit. Barking Harker? Sure. Absolutely. Doc's open right now. But maybe I'll do more. Love is my kindling, but bile is the fuel on the fire.

I can do Jonathan Harker as the Superior Dracula, complete with ripping Coppola's reincarnation love interest gimmick out his asshole and doing the Romantic Dracula Trope real justice. Why? BECAUSE IT'S ACTUALLY JONATHAN AND JONATHAN CAN PULL OFF THE WHITE-HAIRED PINING UNDEAD ROLE BETTER. How about that?

How about I make a whole ass script and screenplay for a Dracula series actually in line with the book? No creative license! No Dracula-wolf sex scenes or cheating fiancees or jealous suitors or dodging the el gee bee tee edges or turning Van Helsing into an anime man who saves the day! Just actual events that actually happened in the 125-year-old book that every modern adaptation is too cis-straight-scared to do! How about that?

How about I eat the heart out of every single Van Helsing-centric Monster Hunter series and anime and make it all about the Harkers, their friends, and/or their descendants? How about that?

How about the Harkers getting an eternal vampiric honeymoon after the Transylvanian trip goes bloodily south and they just go about their undead business forever and Dracula is nothing but a footnote in their story which he always was anyway? How about that?

HOW ABOUT I FLOOD THE WORLD WITH DRACULA CONTENT WHERE DRACULA IS NO MORE OR LESS THAN THE SADISTIC VILLAIN HE'S ALWAYS BEEN AND GETS HIS ASS KICKED AND HEAD CHOPPED LIKE THE LOSER BASTARD DESERVES???

HOW ABOUT THAT????

I WILL LIVE TO SEE A WORLD THAT REGISTERS EXACTLY HOW BADASS JONATHAN HARKER AND ALL OF THE HUMAN CAST IS, A WORLD THAT SEES DRACULA FOR THE UNDEAD UNDERWEAR STAIN HE ALWAYS WAS,

FOR I WILL CRAFT THAT WORLD MYSELF UPON THE BONES AND BLOOD OF THE INFINITE BASTARDIZATIONS THAT CAME BEFORE THEM!

I SHALL NOT SUFFER THESE ICE-COLD 'lol no I never touched the book but I kinda remember the wiki for the Coppola movie' TAKES FOR ALL ETERNITY. I WILL REWRITE THE PUBLIC OSMOSIS UNTIL ALL THEY KNOW OF DRACULA IS THAT JONATHAN HARKER KILLED HIM IN HIS DIRT BOX.

Anyway.

To all my Dracula Dailiers out there. I say again. Join me. While our little book club did wonders, the fact is, not a ton of people are going to ever bother with the dusty old novel. Spinoffs and sequels? Sure. But not (what they assume is) a dry old classic. Which leaves audiences and filmmakers caught in a perpetual profit and expectation-based loop.

People assume Dracula is Sexy-Suave Count Fuckula and that Mina hooks up with him while Van Helsing and [INSERT HUMAN NOBODIES HERE] are pushed to the sidelines. So that's what directors will keep churning out. Ditto for makers of books, comics, shows, and video games. It will just keep going in the same rut.

Unless we put some new blood out there. There are so many possibilities. So much that can be made to finally drag the spotlight away from the Count and give it back to the characters who deserve it.

So please. Please. Make that Dracula-derived thing you're unsure about. Even at its most indulgent and outlandish, you have read the book. And you know more about what you're doing than literally any so-called professional who's churned out their tired knockoffs of knockoffs. (Or the folks who take their opinions from the same.)

A Cheat Sheet to Gintama References

Have you ever said to yourself "I want to get into Gintama, but I want to understand all of the references?"

Well fear not, for I have a cheat sheet for a lot of the references. Not all of them, because I'd never finish this post. But there are a lot of references the series makes, and as non-native Japanese viewers, a lot of things are lost on us. That's not even getting to things that are lost due to the language barrier. So here it is: a (not so) comprehensive list of series that Gintama references!

Manga

Dragon Ball (Bonus points if it involves dunking on Yamcha.)

Fist of the North Star (Complete with a copyright-friendly version of You Wa Shock!)

Saint Seiya (an entire episode hinges on Gintoki being afraid of getting sued by Toei because of their constant Saint Seiya references)

City Hunter (I wouldn't be surprised if City Hunter was an inspiration for Gintama. Like Gintoki as a main character is what happens if you were to combine Kenshin Himura and Ryo Saeba into a single man. And then you gave said man Kakashi's hair.)

Rurouni Kenshin (Gintama is best described as the post Big 3 answer to Rurouni Kenshin. While One Piece and Shaman King are the true successors to RK, Gintama is the series most similar in terms of aesthetics... minus the modern tech in Meiji-era Japan.)

One Piece, Naruto, and Bleach (I'm folding all three into one line due to their nature as Jump's Big Three. Not helping things is that Gintama ran around the same time as all three.)

JoJo's Bizarre Adventures

Death Note

To Love Ru (Yes, really.)

SKET Dance (Not surprising as SKET Dance mangaka Kenta Shinohara was Sorachi's apprentice at one point)

Fullmetal Alchemist

Lupin III

Golgo 13

Kinnikuman (the thing Ultimate Muscle is based off of)

Doraemon

Sazae-san

Berserk

The Disastrous Life of Saiki K (Ask me about how Gintama helped screw Saiki K out of an English Dub for Season 2)

Anime

Mobile Suit Gundam (It helps that Sunrise/Bandai Namco Pictures produced the Gintama anime, because there are a lot of Gundam references in particular. You also don't get the Renho arc without Sunrise producing the anime.)

Mobile Suit Victory Gundam and Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn (Specifically the fact that Shinpachi and Tsukuyo's voice actors are in each series respectively)

Neon Genesis Evangelion (Especially if it involves MADAO, as MADAO shares a voice actor with Gendo Ikari)

Castle in the Sky, Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, and My Neighbor Totoro (I'm highlighting these three Ghibli movies in particular due to how often they are referenced throughout the series.)

The Brave Franchise (Specifically The Brave Express Might Gaine and The King of Braves GaoGaiGar)

Patlabor (Yes really, and SKET Dance is partially to thank for this one)

Video Games

Dragon Quest (Specifically DQ III & IV, this series gets referenced a lot once Tama is introduced)

Sengoku Basara (Specifically when it involves one Toshiro Hijikata)

Final Fantasy VII

Mother

Super Mario Brothers

Tales Of

Resident Evil

Yakuza/Like a Dragon (Not surprising, as both Like a Dragon and Gintama are set in and around Kabukicho)

Monster Hunter

Live Action Film & Television

Abarenbo Shogun (SHOGUN KA YO!!!!!)

NHK Taiga Drama (The Shinsengumi drama in particular is a primary influence for Gintama)

Game of Death

Star Wars

Kinpachi-sensei (The series that the Ginpachi-sensei segments are based off of)

Doctor Who

I hope this helps if and when you decide to watch through Gintama. I'll try to update this post as I remember more references or if anyone messages me with a reference that I missed. Because good lord are there a lot of references. Oh, also remember: if this is your first time watching Gintama, start on episode 3. The first two episodes are filler.

The Golden Ratio - Chapter 9

(The following story contains male weight gain, food play, BDSM, kidnap, encouragement, and feeder/feedee scenarios. If that's not for you, then go to church or something vanilla dude.

This takes place during and after the events of the One-Piece film GOLD. For a better experience see the film on your local streaming service.

This story is written in collaboration with @bee-wg)

------------------------------------

Tesoro

As the ruler of the Gran Tesoro, I have played games with countless gamblers across the years. Crushing their hopes dreams just to feel something, getting to see the hopes of marines and pirates alike draining from their faces. Now, my days are completely capitalized by a different source of entertainment.

When I first saw Zoro fighting the intruding pirates in the theater bay, I was impressed by his ability. The agility with which he moved between the enemy pirates, climbing over swords and heads like letters. The strength to cut through them like butter and the way his almost naked muscular body flexed with each of his movements. I knew at that moment that I would have the entertainment of my life and turn this athletic pirate into a butterball.

I have to keep my expectations low, he will most likely be like my other pets.

After a few weeks, I would lose interest in him.

I couldn't have been more wrong.

The Pirate Hunter is not only occupying all of my time, but he's growing beyond my wildest expectations.

At some point, he let go of his restrictions and started to satisfy his needs freely, which meant sex and food by the tons. In a way it did wonders, he eats without restraint at every opportunity, saving me the effort of trying to push him further to indulge. For someone with my funds, the extra meals are nothing, but his appetite for food hasn’t been the only one to grow.

His sex drive is monstrous, now at any given moment, Roronoa would jump on top of me and use me as his sex toy. Not that I dislike it but it has put my stamina to the test. I have created a monster, a very horny monster.

My goal was to get him hooked on my touch, now my mission is completely dedicated to keeping him satisfied. In my latest attempt to create a distraction from his constant need for my dick, I sent the local chefs to scout for East Blue recipes. Their findings would be added to the different restaurant's menus.

My plan was to decorate Yolkdale with every sword adjacent treasure in our vault, and convince him the new items from the east blue are part of a limited time menu.

The morning of the event I had to wake up ahead of schedule, to organize the men while they hanged the decorations in the restaurant. Then go back to my bedroom and convince Zoro, just so we could move out of my quarters for a quick breakfast. He has turned into such a lazy pig that this is the only way to convince him to move out.

We made it to Yolkdale before it opened to the public. The mornings are the most busy time of the day for them, especially since most guests order their food to go. We were no exception, I can't remember the last time I set foot inside this restaurant till this morning.

The building reflects an old-fashioned dinner. There are several rows of golden seats and booths, all decorated with red cushions that shine under the fluorescent light. Massive record players cover the walls at both ends of the restaurant, they have all of my biggest hits of course.

The walls are covered with pictures of every samurai, swordsman and alike that ever visited this restaurant. Regularly there are pictures of more celebrities, pirates and marines alike. But I hand picked the pictures on display today.

Sword of all types decorate the walls as well, but Zoro passed them by like they were nothing. Even a sword donated from a legendary swordmaster escapes his attention as he lumbers his way to one of the booths.

The glutton is too hungry in the morning to notice, but I'm used to his idiocy by now.

Getting his butt inside a booth was a challenge for him, and an exciting display of his size for me. After seeing him trying to fit in for a while, I ended up moving the golden table with a snap of my fingers.

Once seated he entertainment himself looking at the pictures of the food in the menu. Im still surprised how he find joy in this, after he has ordered the menu for this place so many times now.

“You did this on purpose didn't you?” he said while his eyes stayed glued to the menu.

“If you mean getting you so fat you barely fit on the boot? Sadly that's your doing Roronoa.”

“I fit just fine, and you know what I mean. The limited time offers are all from Shimotsuki Village.”

“Aren't you impressed?”

“Everything looks just like back then, but that's beside the point. I can tell what you are doing.”

I arched an eyebrow at his comment, he just continued.

“You think I will be amused by some nostalgic dishes, but it doesn't work.”

“It would sound more convincing if you were not drooling over the menu.”

He grunts at my reply, wiping the saliva off his lips. After a while, the waiter arrives to take our orders. Zoro starts to show her the list of items he wants for what I know will be an hours-long binge.

“I will have a sourdough toast with golden baked eggs and black coffee,” I said.

While we waited, waves of workers ran in and out of the kitchen. They would bring ingredients, clean the restaurant and run to deliver food around the ship.

“Are all of your workers because of a debt?”

“Not all of them, but most are.”

His eye remained in the group of men as they worked. When one of the delivery boys drops an order, a muscular man comes to him. We could hear the reprimand the man was getting for his mistake, just to get slaps across the face. The hit was so sudden the delivery boy fell back to the ground.

“Fire him.”

I looked into the chaos and replied, “What? No, I don't follow orders from my pet.”

I could sense the hints of his smell in the air, my heart beats against my chest rapidly as he looks at me, lazer focused.

“We won't do more sex stuff if you don’t.”

“You wouldn't dare.”

His smell has become more cuativating, a musky aroma that permeates around the restaurant. As I huff for air all I do is get more of him in me.

We are interrupted by the waiter bringing our avalanche of dishes. I though Zoro would leave the matter alone by the time she is done. Instead he looks at me with the same vitriol as before. His hands went for the first bite of food without taking his eye off of me.

As his hands rise to bring more food to his face I feel my mouth water, not for the food but for him. My head gets flooded with images of all the depraved things we have done and all the things I could do right here andd now.

Every chew and bite he takes, is slow and deliberated. It drives me insane to see him eat like this, II can feel myself sweating just from been this close to him. but I keep my composure. He cant run over me.

As the silence between us grows he starts to pick up pace. He rips chunks of food with his naked hands, his angry eyes still glued to me. The faster he moves the more violent his body jiggles and the more I feel myself lose control.

I can't take it anymore. So, I tie his leash to the leg of the table.

“I have a meeting near the restaurant, stay here till I return.”

He finally stops looking at me before waving his hand dismissing me.

I walk toward the exit before I look at the man that knocked the delivery boy. Taking a strong stomp I get his attention, the color in his face drains.

“You! You’re fired!” I yelled, pointing at his face across the room.

The man looks at me, a mix of confusion and fear. when the restaurant starts to rattle with my power he volts to the exit, leaving the rest of the workers stuned.

“What are you all looking at? get back to work! You have a client don't you?”

Everyone ran back to work, a new sense of urgency on their steps. I could hear Zoro snickering as I got out of the restaurant, cocky cow.

Days ago I got a letter from the world government, apparently some of the celestial dragons want to come for a visit. In preparation for the occasion they will sent some cipher pol agents to ensure the route of access are safe.

The goddamn idiots, it's not like this is their first visit. After been subjected to the worst those bastards have to offer, I still have to put up with them. Acting friendly, pretend you missed them and smile when they visit every other month.

Everytime I get another world government letter my stomach burns with anger. It's the same miserable posturing and protocol just to pander to this scum of the earth.

I gulp my own disgust as I approach the cipher pol ship that just unloaded at the bay.

The same faces every time, they present themselves as if I didn't see them last time. The same patrol and security checks as always, boring to my core. All I can think of is my pet waiting for me at Yolkdale.

“Everything seems to be in order for the celestial dragon’s visit, Tesoro. But we got word that you got another of your pets. If you want him to come to visit , he needs to have an interview with us.”

“No, it won't be necessary.”

I would rather make the world government my sworn enemy, than to risk losing another one to those worms. Roronoa is better off without ever crossing paths with them.

“If you change your mind let us know, you have till the day before they arrive.” said the agent before boarding his ship.

They move to their rooms in the ship, the check up being as fast as usual. This whole guided visit is a posturing measure, once we are done the security team will keep an eye on them through the cameras around the ship. With all of them back in their quarters I had spare time to get back to Roronoa. Getting him distracted with the new menu items was a great idea. When I take him back to my quarters, I will cash on that treat he made earlier.

When I arrive back at Yolkdale, the first thing I hear is a yell.

“Try and act all tough now you fatass!”

A group of my workers gather around Roronoa, they shout at him while he continues to eat.

Another man grabs his belly, shaking the blubber.

“What's the matter, cow? too fat to talk?” said the same man.

Zoro slapped the hand of the man away from him, nonchalantly going back to his meal. The man enrages before rising his punches.

“You are nothing but another of the boss' disgusting pets, I will show you your place!”

All of the men get ready to gang on him, but when the first one tries to punch Zoro a curdling scream floods the dinner.

The armament haki protected him from the blow and broke my worker's hand.

Before another dipshit pulls out a gun, I walk toward them.

One of the men notices me approaching and laughs nervously.

“Look, the boss is coming to join us, show him what's good!” said the man.

I gather gold in my hands before punching him across the restaurant.

The rest of his group stood in silence seeing their friend become a painting on the wall.

“Boss, we were just showing this slave a lesson. He was giving back attitude.” said the man with the bloody hand.

“He is my property, I imagined you were all smarter than to mess with my property.”

“Sir, we were-”

Before he could talk I raise my hand, the man takes a step back. The gold in the ceiling and floor starts to melt, little droplets float off them and get suspended mid air. My eyes filled with rage, these lowlifes dare to touch him.

The group runs to the door in the other end of the restaurant desperately pulling on the handle. Their efforts are futile, I already sealed the exits. For months I have kept Zoro away from the eyes of anyone, they think they can just waltz here and take him as they please?

I won't let anyone lay a finger on him but me. The delivery boys and cooks take cover as I lower my hand.

“Golden round!” I yelled.

All of the tiny golden droplets fire like bullets to the group of men, the rain of attacks pierce through their bodies and paint the wall in red. Yes, see what happens when you cross me or my pet.

I hear the screams of the other workers as stray bullets hit them or their equipment. In any other case I would end now, but all I can think is how much I want them to disappear. Like the celestial dragons, like the cipher fools, like the rich bastards of the world, they shall all banish.

Finally the gold stops and I see the result of my work, they breath miserably on the floor. Their bloody bodies were barely alive as I turned to Roronoa.

“Do you want to get going?” I asked.

“I haven't finished yet, but they ruined my appetite.”

That's a first.

“I could order the rest to go.”

“Sure.”

As we made our way out of the restaurant he turned to the restaurant staff and bowed, or at least as much as he can bow now.

“Sorry for the inconvenience,” he said between pants for air.

He looked at me, the same accusative stare. Fine, what a killjoy.

“I'm sorry for the mess, I’ll send someone to care for the damages.”

Even without being done with the feast, his belly has inflated to rival the beanbags at the Castaway Lounge. His weight has skyrocketed, making it more of a workout for me to carry him around. He tries to catch his breath as I carry him in front of me. I grab his legs to my sides while he latches lazily to my neck.

“I'm really sorry for today, it was supposed to be fun but those lowlifes got in the way.”

“It's okay, nothing happened.”

Even after seeing me unload on my own workers, he tries to act like it was nothing. They deserved a punishment, but I went overboard. It's not the first time I reacted like this, I’ve promised myself not to have an outburst like this. Still, each time they come it's harder for me to control them. He doesn't need to see me like that again.

He rested his head against my chest as we continued on our way.

“I feel sick, maybe I ate something that was spoiled,” he said.

“Or you stuffed yourself too much?”

“What do you know about eating anyways, you barely eat anything.”

“I imagined you were too focused on your food to worry about my order,” I said, raising an eyebrow.

“I imagined you would try some of the food for the event, instead you had the smallest thing on the menu.”

“Someone in my position doesn't need big portions, I enjoy the lavish and refined dishes from the highest chefs. Besides, I never got used to big portions.”

He didn't reply to that, opting to quietly rest on my shoulder. As we continued our way to the quarters, my memory lingered on those old days. When we couldn't get butter on toast in the morning.

Before the Gran Tesoro and the gol gol fruit, I struggled to put food on the table, a single slice of bread was a luxury. Even then I always managed to get enough for me and Stella. She was a sack of bones the first time I laid eyes on her behind the bars of the human shop. She would die to have any of these dishes, so I eat them for the two of us.

My reminiscing gets interrupted by Roronoa, he belches shamelessly close to my face.

“That's better.” he said, satisfied with himself.

He rested his head against me and fell asleep before we made it to the quarters. Show off.

Once we made it into the bedroom I dropped him on my bed. I left him to rest and when the rest of his feast arrived he was ready to go at it again. The hill of food was due to him asking for seconds of the limited time dishes, just before the workers confronted him.

“I have to eat these while they are available right?” he said, getting ready to stuff himself further.

“Wait.” I said.

He looks at me tiredly

“What now?”

“I want to make it up to you, for what happened in Yolkdale.”

“I already said nothing happened. Dont worry about it.”

He quiets down when I grab his ass, letting my fingers linger on the soft flesh.

“Is this a make up gift for you or me?” he asked looking back at me.

“Why not both?”

He pushes into me and I feel my dick stir in my pants.

Enjoying the view of his ample back, I slowly get my hands in the string that is Zoro’s underwear. My fingers teasing the entrance of his butt, with him whimpering from my touch. The more I touch, the more his asshole gushes liquid, the scent emanating from it makes me dizzy with lust.

He leans forward in the bed, getting on all fours and giving me full access to my price.

My original idea was to tease him, letting him melt under my pressure and fucking him slow. But the closer I get to his round cheeks, the more I crave to get this scent from its source.

My mouth waters, the hot steam emanating from his body mixes with my breathing as I get closer to him. His titanic buttcheeks are so tantalizing, like the finest of cakes. I unzip my pants, the aroma entices. I can't resist it.

My hands moved on their own, struggling to part his buttcheeks. I remember being able to hold his bubble butt in my palms. Now I need both hands to hold one overflowing cheek.

His puckered asshole gushes more juice, and all I can do is lick the pink flesh of his ass

He reacts to my touch, but lets me continue.

“What are you doing?” he said.

“Eating”

“Is that your tongue?”

I lick in circles around his hole and he moans.

His butt has grown so much, it covers my whole face.

It's hard to breathe under this mountain of blubber, all I get is his scent.

“Why are you using your tongue? you pervert.”

“A real man… tries everything.” I said between mouthfuls of ass.

“I’ve never heard of people doing this before. It’s weird.”

His entrance opens up for me and I go deeper. I need more of him, of his taste.

He flinches, pushing back into my face. A deep grunt rolls out of him.

“Perhaps, but yoou love it,” I said with a laugh.

“Not as much as you- Ooh daamn, stop for a second. You are more eager now, than at Yolkdales.” he lashes back.

“You taste better- It's sweet like honey … salty… intoxicating.” I replied

The thick liquid coated my tongue, I just need more. My hips push forward, brushing the soft side of the bed. I moan against his hole, and he trembles with my hot breath.

“I'm getting close- Slow down, I can't cum just from your tongue-” he said, with a desperate whine.

He pulls away from me and I grab his sides, pulling him in.

“You can cum, just- let me have this” I replied. I will read it and make the changes as it goes

He stays quiet until I drive my face deeper into him. He moans wildly and his ass clenches around my tongue. Zoro’s hands give out, falling on the bed and panting for air.

After catching his breath he rises again.

“You are worse than the pervert cook, you make less sense.”

“S-stop talking about that cook!” I yelled.

My face coated in butt juice drips on the carpet.

“All you have to focus on is- Me.”

He tries to look back at me, but his titanic hips are in the way.

“I made you like this- noot the cook nor my workers. So, focus on me.”

“Why are you-?”

“Enjoying your ass? Because- I made It this big, I de-deserve to use it. You like it, do-don't you?” I say with a laugh.

He pushed me out of him. The liquid flow slows down.

“Okay that's enough, just fuck me.”

“Noo! Let me- Just L-let me enjoy this.”

With a sigh he relaxes and I dig back in, each lick sweeter than the last. My body moves on its own, pushing more of his body toward me and rubbing my dick against the bed.

“You have groown sooo muuch for me. Noone of my old pets got this big b-before.”

He pulls away from me.

“Why?”

“I got bored of them be-before they got this big.”

“Why do you do this?"

“I give one of them- whaat they wa-wanted and I-II get m-my own pets.”

“A true saint”

“Right? Whoo wouldn't-want this anywayyyss? You love it”

“What makes you think I want any of this?”

“You do-don't eeven try to st-stop now. Aalso! Your face is sooo happy when you aree full.”

“It's not true, I-”

I try to get closer to his hole but he continues.

“I do, that's the worst part. I shouldn't like any of this.”

“Why not?” I said taking a lick of him.

“I have a dream to become the strongest swordsman in the world. How can I do that looking like this?”

“III don't know about swordsman, buut about dreams, they change.”

“What do you know of dreams, your only dream is destroying other people's hopes.”

“Nah, myyy dr-dream waas to saaave Stella, bu-but she is gonee. So, myy new dreeam waas too fiend someone eelse.”

“Huh?”

“Seee, Yoou can haave a -new dream. Likee biggeeest swordmaan, or fattest aasss at se-sea.” I said with a laugh.

He sighs and presses his hips against me again, I could swear he grows against me.

Stifling a moan he pulled away and I tried to stay latched to his hole. Why is he taking this away from me?

He uses one of his feet to keep me away. Why can't I push back?

“Hey Tesoro, what's the number for the vault?”

“11201524, why?”

With a chuckle he presses back into me, his butt suffocates me.

He grinds his ass against my face, and pulls away.

“Stop do-doing that! I want moore” I said.

“Why did you pick me, from all of my crew, or even other prisoners?”

“Y-yooou were a p-pretty waall trophy, Pi-pirate Hunter Ro-ronoa Zoro in the flesh.” I said.

A loud laugh comes out of me before I continue.

He pulls further away from me, where is my nectar going? Oh yeah the question.

“B-but y-you are fun to have aroound. This job is lo-lonely. ”

I leap forward taking a lick of his butt before adding.

“I caan't trust them- anyone- Bu-but you are difffeerent- Yoou- I can truust.”

I try to take another mouthful, but he gets away again. Fuck I need more!

“What happened to your other pets then?”

“I- released them- beecause they were boring.”

His feet kept me away.

“Please, let me have more. I need it, iits just so good!

“Wait, I-”

“Moooree! please Moore.”

He lets me in, the sweet taste floods me.

“Yeees, thiis is all I waant. I want to stay like his forever, for- ever, foooor-eeeveeer.”

“Tell me how much you want it,” he said, shaking his ass in my face.

“Uuuugh I need it. Piiig aasss is good.”

I feel drool drip off my face, and my dick drip precum. I’m so horny I'm leaking like his butt. His buuutttt, I need more of it.

Dick hard, so haaardd, I neeed moree. My hands grab his sides and push them toward me.

I can't breathe, all is goo. Yees, more.

“I'm not the only pig here. Eat then, take as much as you can!”

He pushes back, putting the weight of his body on my face.

It's sooo good. I must consume. My hips trust the bed, the friction made my cock feel so good inside my underwear.

Oooh Fuuuuck, I'm cumming in my pants. I'm cumming on the bed because of buuutt juice.

“I'm going to cum again, fuck keep going.”

Yees I obey and get moree ass juice. He moans loudly and his butt drenches me in liquid. An anal orgasm, I must drink it all.

He moans, it's loud, yes make Zoro happy and cum all he wants. I drink all I want, must go on.

After that, my vision blurs, all there is in the world is more butt ambrosia and eventually sleep.

The next morning I groggily wake up, my dirty clothes from last night still on me. My boner raging against Zoro’s back, we are glued together in a messy embrace. I held the impulse to trust forward. I feel so hot, also blank- I don't remember anything from yesterday.

Everything after leaving Zoro in my bed is a haze. Looking around the bedroom I see empty containers thrown on the floor. The bed is a disaster of dried up semen, food and butt juice.

I see his messy figure stir awake, he turns around looking at me.

“Morning” he says with a yawn.

“Morning”

I have drank myself into a blackout before, but never to the point of losing the events of the night.

“Zoro, what happened last night?”

“You got your mouth in my ass, then fell asleep on me.”

“Oh, sorry.”

My worries evaporate as more of his smell enters my lungs. Everything is saturated in his aroma, perfect I'm an amnesiac and horny. Double in pain from a hunger pang, I haven't felt this hungry in years.

“Wait, we didn't have dinner last night, did we?” I asked.

“I did,” he replied.

Takeout, that explains the extra boxes of food.

“Let's get going, we should head for breakfast.”

I notice the dried stain of cum in my pants and discard them. I liked that pair of pants, I will order more just in case this happens again.

Going out for breakfast, I ordered my usual. Before the waitress left, I ordered a second to make up for last night's dinner.

Once I'm full, sickly full, we head to my office.

“Can't we go back to the quarters? I’m tired.” he said.

The lazy hog dares to complain of that while I carry him around.

“I’m the one breaking a sweat here, Roronoa!”

“If we go back you can rest as well.”

“I can’t stay in bed forever, without me this ship would sink, ”

“That’s because you are shitty captain, a crew should be able to work without its captain. You allow them to rely too much on you.”

“You don't know shit about my crew, all you do is sleep and eat anyways.”

“It's not what I have heard.”

The nosey bastard has been eavesdropping again, I guess he never stopped.

“Hey I'm just helping your poor crewmen,” he said with a shrug.

“So what do you suggest? Leaving them to their own and seeing how they set the place on fire?”

“Yes, and if they do set it on fire you know it's time to make changes.”

How can he be like this? Lazing around at most hours and still giving this advice. The weirdest thing of all, it's not even such a crazy idea. I have the means to repair any damages the crew may cause, and more time in my quarters means more time with my pet.

He is so close to me, his scent infuses my clothes as I carry him. My dick stirs inside my pants and I feel more compelled to give his idea a chance.

“It's an entertaining experiment at least,” I said reluctantly.

“Lets head back then, and make a stop for a snack. I'm hungry” he said, looking at me with a cocky grin.

We just had breakfast and he is already thinking of more food, I did a number on him. Actually, maybe some light snack won't be so bad.

My bedroom was cleaned by the time we arrived, even with all their efforts the air still has his lingering smell.

He collapses on my bed and sigh in relief as if he took a step to get here. Taking my suit’s jacket off, I sit beside him.

“Now to wait for the ship to burn down.”

“Shut up, it will be fine.” he said.

“...”

With a grunt he sits back up, his back turned on me.

“Trust me okay?” he said.

It's easy for him to say, my life’s work is on this ship. My head tells me his words are nothing but that, just words. But a part in me shivers with the idea that I have molded Zoro so perfectly, he even cares for me and the ship now.

“Earth to Tesoro, Why don’t we do something in the meantime?” he said, snapping his fingers in front of my face.

“Sorry I got distracted…Do something. We could see some Den TV™, there might be a movie on.”

There is a Den den mushi projector on the ceiling of my bedroom. With a push of a button it comes down, and starts playing an old romantic drama in black and white.

“They don’t make movies like this now.”

“For a reason, they are boring. Find something with more action.”

What a simpleton, he doesn’t appreciate the true art of classic cinema. But what can I expect of a moss brain pig.

“Take the remote, I'm going to get some popcorn. When I’m back we will see whatever is on.”

Getting into the kitchen I pick up the popcorn and put it on the stove to pop. As the cornels burst I continue to wonder. I trust him, especially after all the training he’s been through. But can he really care for me, beyond his body’s desire for my touch?

When the popcorn is done I get back to the room with two big bowls.

He is sprawled in the middle of the bed scratching his gut.

“Took you long enough. I found a good movie, come.”

I sat beside him, with the two bowls resting between us. We silently watch the mind numbing action film. Zoro cheers with a mouth full of popcorn, shouting at the screen as if the characters could listen to him. Even when the movies are this dumb, I find an odd sense of fun in seeing Zoro enjoy them so thoroughly.

We made fast use of the popcorn, lazily watching the rest of the movie. But the two of us craved something to snack on. I went down for a second batch of popcorn, this time taking three bowls with me.

The rest of the day runned like this, watching trashy action movies and ordering food in.

Eventually I got tired of going down for popcorn, and Zoro convinced me to place an order for some snacks. Something small, some nachos and cheese with candy for later.

Our original order ran short and I added hot dogs to the order. The hot dogs turned into pizza, burgers, churros and the sorts.

I would be lying if I said I didn't eat, but compared to Zoro, my little moment of indulgence looks laughable.

The Den Den Mushi in my bedroom rang every so often, my hands always trying to reach for it and see what those idiots got themselves into. Zoro would press his body against me, his belly smothering my side. Telling me to let the message go unattended. The more I reflected on picking the call or not, the more he attached himself to me.

His thighs wrap around me, his tits pressed against my torso, even his face rubs in my chest as he makes my resolve vanish.

Add to that, his scent soaking in every corner of the room. Making it harder for me to resist the urge to take him every hour. He was more than happy to comply, moaning loudly through the day. At least it helped to drown the sound of the Den Den Mushi calls.

I eventually got fed up with the damn thing ringing all day long, so I turned it off.

It's the end of our week long reclusion when someone knocks at the door of my quarters.

“Did you order anything?” I asked.

Zoro looks at me, his cheeks filled with nachos.

“Everything is here already,” he replied after swallowing.

“This better be good,” I said putting on my bathrobe to open the door.

Climbing down the stairs I feel the effects of seven days of lethargy. My muscles ache and my breath is short. I can't remember when was the last time I got a break from training.

In order for me to win the Gol Gol Fruit in the Colosseum, I had to keep a strict workout regimen. And I have kept it ever since. Besides, the Gran Tesoro demands a strong King.

I should have gone for a walk at least in the last few days, sweat is rolling on my eyebrows just from this.

When I open the door, behind it is the security captain.

“Morning Sir, I'm sorry to disturb you but they have arrived.” Tanaka said with a stricken look on his face.

Heyyy, do you know any games where the classes/playbooks are completely asymmetrical?

Keep the good work!

THEME: Asymmetrical Games

Hello friend! I found a few! Even better, each game rec is a different genre!

Slayers, by Gila RPGs.

The City sits at the nexus of the world. Once you're inside it, it is the world. Something drives the borders of The City ever-onward, crawling towards the horizon. Urban sprawl made real. Neighbourhoods appear and disappear overnight, The City is filled to brim with no shortage of interesting characters, cultures…and monsters. That's where you come in, Slayer.

Slayers is a tabletop RPG of mercenaries and monster hunters for hire. Known by locals as Slayers, players wander a haunted city, cursed long ago to expand towards the horizon forever. Slayers help clean out the monsters that infest the alleyways and shadows, and those that the city seems to be manifesting on its own.

This is the first game that comes to mind when I think of asymmetrical play. Slayers is probably one of the foremost asymmetrical game out there, with the same target for success, but with a different way of achieving that success for each character playbook. If you’re interested in more scenarios or character options for this game, you just need to check out the Slayers tag on Itch to see what the community has created.

Drifters, also by Gila RPGS.

Drifters is a tabletop RPG of cursed gunslingers, wandering the wastes of the frontier in search of problems, and purpose. Carrying a capital-G Gun, you have been granted near immortality. It only costs everything in return. Drift now, your voidborn Gun draws you down the road.

Drifters uses the same core mechanic as Slayers, but re-casts the players as cursed gunslingers. The creator has broken character creation into two parts, so that each Drifter is made up of their Background and their Gun. This is a development of Slayers, so if you want to see what can be done to push the system and play with it, or if you just want to see what asymmetry looks like in a different setting, you should check this game out.

Hell Cabin, by World Champ Games Co.

HELL CABIN is a tabletop horror rpg for 2-4 players based on films like Evil Dead, The Lodge, and The Rental.

Each of four roles (Survivor, Friends, Cabin, and Evil) has unique dice mechanics, strengths, and goals to allow for a truly gm-less horror experience. Each will interact and compete for power while accepting an inevitable fate.

This game is GM-Less, so it’s a great option for a play group where everyone wants a little bit of narrative control. The Survivor is one playbook, representing one person who cannot die, and uses a d20. The Friends are all played by another person, who directs them like a troupe, and uses d6’s. The Cabin uses d10s to introduce the setting elements and gives the characters setpieces to interact with, and the Evil uses d8s and a point-buy system to slowly take over the Friends.

If you want to re-visit a classic horror story using unique mechanics, I definitely recommend checking this game out.

Born of Cold, also by World Champ Game Co.

Born of Cold is an asymmetrical and gm-less storytelling game for 2-4 players. Each of four available roles has different rules & mechanics to interact with one another and tell a compelling and hazardous tale.

Another game by Adam Vass, this is another gm-less game that gives different roles and different dice mechanics to each character. This is a re-purposing of Hell Cabin, but the roles in this game are The Cursed, The Snow Queen, The Winter, and The Forest. If you want to try out asymmetrical mechanics in a story of survival, struggle, and tragedy, then Born of Cold might be worth checking out.

Sea Beast Theory!!

So I have a new hyperfixation with The Sea Beast movie on Netflix, which I’ve finally watched. And I’m so glad we’re getting a sequel!!

So here’s my theory:

At the very beginning of the movie when Jacob was a boy among a shipwreck, there was this big sea beast that must have taken out the ship. But it wasn’t Red because it wasn’t red (obviously), it had stripes and different tail fins from Red or any of the sea beasts shown throughout the movie.

Based on its design alone with its sharper edges compared to the round details of Red and Blue, along with the ominous mystery surrounding the creature, I think this is going to be an antagonist for the second movie. Maybe this beast is the monster of all monsters, something that even Red might be afraid of. OR what if the beast is being controlled by that witch lady that Crow went to see?

Imagine if Jacob and Maisie work together to study the sea beasts to inform more people that they’re not just animals. They try to protect the beasts from former hunters, pissed that they’re profession is illegitimate now (and possibly illegal). So they set sail across the world to protect these creatures and maybe they recruit Jacob’s old crew to help them. I always wondered what happened to those guys. Then they come across the monster that took out Jacob’s ship when he was a child.

Now he has to forgive and grow and remain a protector of these creatures. OR he will give into his anger and hate for the creature that took out his ship (possibly with his family on it. Who knows, he could be an orphan like Maisie who lost his parents on a different ship). He could try to kill the creature, much to the fear and disappointment of Maisie.

It would be cool to see more of Jacob’s backstory in the sequel, along with facing the affects his decision to stop monster hunting has caused for him and Maisie. Who knows, monster hunting might now even have stopped after he and Maisie left on Red. Watching Jacob and Maisie try to change the world for the better could be intertwining. Along with watching Jacob struggle with impulses to not kill that beast that almost killed him as a child because he doesn’t do that anymore. He’s a protector, they’re not all bad. But what if the beast shown at the beginning of the film is?

I haven’t worked out the kinks of this theory completely yet. I can’t wait to see what will happen in the sequel and where Jacob and Maisie’s adventures take them.

LADY GAGA AT THE CHROMATICA BALL PREMIERE

Lady Gaga joined her little monsters at the screen premiere of her highly-anticipated HBO "Chromatica Ball" Tour Film last night which took place at the Nya Studios in Los Angeles.

Styling by Nicola Formichetti and Hunter Clem with assistance by Erica Valle and Frankie Benkovic. Hair by Frederic Aspiras, glam by Sarah Tanno-Stewart and nails by Miho Okawara, respectively.

Gaga turned up in Argentinian Berlin-based emerging designer SELVA which was based on his "[603.628]km²" collection.

Her look featured a laminated white muslin calico cotton one-shoulder jacket and matching corset dress cut in the memory of an apron, stenced with holes for multiple sterling silver hooks and chains. A white lacquered shoulder sculpture made of discarded car parts pulled the whole look together. It was created in only two days!

Cristian 'Selva' Huygens started by developing and creating costumes for performances he produces, as well as for exhibitions inside ATM banks and interventions in public spaces around Berlin. The collection was inspired by his last trip to Kyiv, Ukraine where he also presented a collection of designs at a local metro station.

He mainly focuses on using discarded materials, all kinds of fabrics, metal connectors, and car parts as armatures. Conceptually, he describes his brand in one word: Brutalism. Every construction detail and mistake is shown. When it happens, he makes them even more visible. As the designer calls it, he develops 'honest clothes,' following the Brutalism concept.

She completed her look with the Pleaser Xtreme-1020 white vinyl platform ankle boots with lace-up front.

Gaga then sat down for a Q&A session, wearing another Germany-based emerging designer: AZIZ, who she previously introduced to us by rocking his designs both on-stage and on-screen at the tour!

This time, he crafted her a custom look which comprised a black stretch jersey long-sleeved elongated dress with a silicone drip-covered stiffened mesh cocoon structure with peek-a-boo slit for the head to come through, and matching gloves.

She crowned the look with a Philip Treacy Fall/Winter 2018 intricate black lace mask.

Our girl also rocked a bunch of white-gold and diamond rings by two French labels. The first ring is Djula's Délicatesse geometric lines large ring (€2,700).

The three other rings are all signed by AKILLIS and included the Tattoo large ring (€8,500), the Tattoo slim ring (€2,900) and the Capture Me ring (€5,250).

I couldn't help but notice how much the last ring resembles a bear trap, which is also depicted on the single cover for the first "Chromatica" single "Stupid Love", creating a great full circle moment.

Shop:

Djula "Délicatesse" Ring (€2,700.00)

AKILLIS "Tattoo" Large Ring (€8,500.00)

AKILLIS "Tattoo" Slim Ring (€2,900.00)

AKILLIS "Capture Me" Ring (€5,250.00)

Gaga rocked her signature sky-high Flamingo-1020 black vinyl platform boots from Pleaser.

The final look of the evening saw Gaga channeling her CBT "Sonnet" interlude by re-wearing her Alexander McQueen Fall/Winter 2002 "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" collection parachute coat which features a mandarin collar, eye-hook closure and exaggerated bishop sleeves, bubble back and train.

In McQueen's words: "This collection was inspired by Tim Burton. It started off dark and then got more romantic as it went along."

This coat was given to her by Daphne Guinness personally!

She also wore the matador-inspired black jacquard silk mask headpiece Philip Treacy created for Lee's collection.

live reactions to house of the dragon season 2, episode 4

spoilers beneath the cut

Starting off with Ghost Hunter Daemon (TM pending)

More young Rhaenyra!!!

OMG

Nah is this HOTD or a f’ing psychological horror film?!?!

Just how long has Daemon been hanging out in Harrenhal?

Poor Oscar’s face at Daemon’s suggestion😂😂😂

Are we getting Bloody Ben this ep?👀

Rhaenys can see Corlys in Alyn’s face. 100%.

I can only hope Corlys’s affair happened before he was with Rhaenys. They truly seem to care for one another.

Funny how last Lord Velaryon goes from fully supporting Rhaenyra to referring to her as “that woman”.

SHIT, the stone dragon’s head falling off- freaking foreshadowing…

Alicent, idk if I’d be asking questions you’re not sure you want the answers to.

Alicent using moon tea after having her own affair with a the Captain of the King’s Guard. Young Alicent would be rolling in her grave.

Finally, Corlys get some control here.

See, Criston Cole could at least be referring to Rhaenyra as “Princess.” Calling her “the Whore of Dragonstone” so publically speaks volumes about his character.

“You’re not fit for the white cloak.” Lord Darklyn spitting out FACTS.

“Yours will come in kind.” DAMN RIGHT IT WILL. And it can’t come soon enough.

Cole avoiding Harrenhal because he knows who’s waiting for him there 🤭

“That castle is more crippled than I am, Your Grace.”😂😂😂

Aegon is definitely echoing Joffrey here, with wanting to know exactly what his council knows and has been up to.

Ooo, Aegon vs Aemond seeds here…

“The two of you have been plotting without my authority?” Yes.

Between last episode and Aemond speaking Valyrian here, they must be feasting👀

Aemond speaking Velyarian with ease, Aegon not so much…

Aegon’s a monster, don’t get me wrong, but objectively speaking, I have to feel for someone in his position. He’s an actual puppet. He didn’t want this, but they made him take it. And now that he has it, everyone’s trying to take the actual power from his hands. You almost have to pity him.

Bruh if Alicent is pregnant I stg…

Larys is such a creep, I cannot. Matthew Needham is so great.

What in the awkward love triangle is going on here…

I’m calling it right now, somehow, some way, Larys is going to play a role in Criston Cole’s death.

Alicent doing research to verify if Rhaenyra was telling her the truth😭😂

Some editor out there PLEASE use Alicent’s speech here about “the significance of Viserys’s intentions died with him” years from now, when the series is complete. It will hit so hard.

Like, I get Harrenhal is haunted and Daemon is being targeted, but I just find it a bit difficult to believe that he truly is just *hanging out* and getting haunted instead of more actively trying to meet with lords and get soldiers. In my opinion, i think the writers are asking a tad bit too much of the viewers here. Have Daemon make progress during the daytime, only to be haunted and have setbacks at night. We’ve been led to believe he hasn’t been able to actually accomplish much at all yet.

How’d he know she was a strong?😂

Alys is a cat playing with her trapped mouse Daemon.😂

Maybe Alys is really Larys’s daughter. They both have a knack for creating chaos and taking advantage of whatever situation they find themselves in.

Willem Blackwood?!?! As in the young boy who slayed the Bracken at Storm’s End during Rhaenyra’s tour all those years ago?!?!

Lmao, the Blackwoods hate the Brackens so much, they’re really out here asking Rhaenyra and Daemon to finish off the Brackens first and THEN they will pledge themselves to her cause.😂😂😂

Aegon, this is a small council meeting, not a minstrel gathering for your entertainment.

Lmao, the frat boy king’s guards shoulder checking each other.

Aegon: I’m the king.

Alicent: … OK? … and?!

Alicent trying some tough love parenting, too bad she’s about 10 years too late.

Ser Gwayne is really like “I did NOT sign up for this, wtf?🤨”

Goodness, episode is already more than halfway over and we’re just now seeing Rhaenyra😅

Jaceeee, that is your MOTHER. I’d mind your tone.

Good, we want the Rhaenyra who means business. 🔥

Rhaenys😭😭😭 I’m already tearing up and she’s only just volunteered to go to Rook’s Rest. I will not survive this.

Rhaenyra telling Jace about the Song of Ice and Fire 💔

PLEASE, Rhaenys’s head gear being reminiscent of tiara- stoppp.💔💔💔 QUEEN.

I’ll probably say this every episode, but the music always slays. ALWAYS.🖤

Chills. And we’re only just starting.

Vhaegar was like, “oh, not yet? Fine by me.”

Cole really should have pursued a career in public relations instead with that little speech.

Idk if I can even watch this, because of the dragons suffering… the visuals, the sounds. it’s too much. I don’t think I’ll be able to rewatch these parts again.

Aegon realizing he was caught in the collateral damage…

Noooo, Rhaenys, you could have fled😭💔

Lmao, all the ground fighting just stops to watch the dragons fight instead.

Night night Cole.

Rhaenys having a SECOND oppurunity to flee, and yet not doing so…

You can tell she knows how this ends😭

Rhaenys, going out like a true Dragonrider… just like her beloved daughter always wanted for herself.

It was very rough seeing the dragons go at each other, but I’m comforting myself with the fact that Meleys and Rhaenys went out with each other, and that neither had to truly outlive the other.

Cole seeing just how replaceable he truly is. It’s what you get. *middle finger*

Will Cole have a moment here? Maybe rethink a lot of his life’s decisions? Or will he learn nothing from his very close brush with death?

OMFG. I WILL NOT BE CONVINCED AEMOND WOULDN’T HAGE ENDED AEGON IF COLE HADN’T BEEN THERE…

Wow, Cole actually preventing a kinslaying. It’s been a longggg time since he’s gotten a point in the good column.

…

Overall, I’m honestly a bit distraught from the events. The battle was very well executed, don’t get me wrong, but also was extremely tough to watch/listen to.

And just life that, the season is halfway over already😭

“Bend the knee to ME, or your house burns” THAT’s why the trailer with that audible clip was so rough sounding…

Regent Aemond is coming… don’t get me wrong, he’s crazy, but he’s playing the long game. You have to give me points for that.

Things I'm thinking about watching IWTV s2

That adult vampires collectively agree that child-vampires are a big #nope has me giggling tbh.

Why is Lestat's hair/wig so awful right now? It's just sitting on his head. Why they do him like that lmao.

I lost my shit at Claudia's "Yes!" when she yanked guy down off the balcony

Present Armond and Louis are trying their darndest to be obnoxious, and it's working.

Past Armond and Louis are fairly satisfying to watch because there's no pretense of an interview and hiding intentions (entirely) in the mix.

Is Kiefer Sutherland to blame for all these damn Bleach Blonde "bad boy" vampires in media? Inquiring minds want to know, but I'm gonna say, "yes."

Louis' purple prose narration sounds and feels like the writers are searching for whatever chord they struck in the first season. That, or they're intentionally writing Louis as more-and-more overwrought in his dialogue.

Daniel Malloy being completely petty about Louis' recounts, while very much smacking of "audience correlates knowing 'tropes' with being above the material", is still pretty satisfying to hear when interjected. Mostly because, yeah, "Paris Sucks." I also really like what they're doing with an older take on the character versus the only interpretation I know from the 90s film (ah-la Christian Slater).

That most vampires, if they live long enough, realize that being immortal and feeding off the living is a fairly shit deal in the long run, is something I appreciate constantly reinforced in these kinds of stories if they're not going full-blown predatory monster (ah-la 30 Days of Night).

"We own nothing," is a line I'm still thinking about since watching the first episode.

With Claudia's eventual blow up at Louis on the horizon, their clash in the first episode makes me believe his whole, "our life is shit, and it's gonna keep being shit" speech wasn't really directed at her, but the phantom Lestat.

It's gonna suck when they kill Claudia, and I'm honestly wondering how they're gonna handle the Armond angle (again, from what I know from the 90s film).

I really want vampire hunters to dust the theater troupe after what they did to that woman on stage, but I know it's not that kind of show.

i can definitely give you some recs for wlw shows, although i need to give two little disclaimers first:

i actually know of only one european wlw show, so i hope it's okay if i expanded this list to include western shows in general ;;;;;;;;

networks and streaming platforms are my mortal enemies because they love cancelling sapphic shows after one or two seasons (AND FUCK THEM ALL FOR THAT TBH), but if i didn't put those series on the list, this would be very short and i also think we would be missing out on some great television, so im adding their status to let you know what to expect before getting into it

OKAY AND NOW WITHOUT FURTHER ADO LET'S GET INTO IT

a league of their own (comedy drama - 1 season - cancelled)

based on the 1992 film of the same name with new characters and storylines, the series, set in 1943, is about the formation of the rockford peaches, a women's team in the nascent all-american girls professional baseball league.

one of my favorites on this list and im so upset it got cancelled AMAZON PRIME YOU WILL PAY FOR YOUR CRIMES

anne+ (drama - 2 seasons + a movie - complete)

the one actual european wlw show of the list, this is a dutch drama series that follows the main character, anne, as she tries to navigate her early twenties as a young lesbian. upon bumping into her ex-girlfriend one day, anne reflects on how her past relationships have contributed to who she has become.

honestly for being from a smaller indie production this is such a relatable, engaging, and well-done series, i definitely recommend it!!!!

dickinson (historical comedy drama - 3 seasons - complete)

based on the life of emily dickinson, the series focuses on her relationships with her family, her friends, her society, and on her long-term romantic relationship with her childhood best friend and sister in law, sue.

another big favorite of mine, it's fun, wild, has an unique modern twist, and both hailee steinfeld and ella hunt are incredible

first kill (fantasy drama - 1 season - cancelled)

the series focus on the relationship between teenage vampire juliette fairmont, who needs to make her first kill in order to enter adulthood and take her place among her powerful family of legacy vampires, and calliope burns, who belongs to a monster-hunting family and needs to slay her first monster in order to gain her family's approval and officially become a hunter herself.

look, i know there are a lot of mixed reviews on this show, but personally i enjoyed it a lot. it's good, campy fun, and a breath of fresh air from the hetero love stories that pervade the genre

gentleman jack (historical drama - 2 seasons - cancelled)

based on the collected diaries of anne lister, which contain over four million words and are written in secret code, documenting a lifetime of lesbian relationships. the series starts in 1832, when anne leaves hastings brokenhearted and heads to halifax, to restore her uncle's estate that she has inherited. while restoring the estate, she finds that the family land has a coal mine that it's being stolen by two brothers and develops a relationship with a woman named ann walker.

genuinely SO UPSET about this one being cancelled, it was such a gorgeous show with the most delightful english humor and complex relationships WHY PEOPLE CAN'T RECOGNIZE QUALITY TELEVISION

gypsy (psychological thriller - 1 season - cancelled)

the series follows jean holloway, a therapist who seems to have it all, but who secretly obsesses over the people her patients talk about in their sessions. this leads her to seek out sydney, one of her patient's ex-girlfriend, with whom she starts developing a romantic relationship under a secret identity.

i wasn't sure whether to rec this or not because i have very mixed feelings about it like the concept is very intriguing to me but the execution wasn't the best imho. it's still a solid show tho, and naomi watts is. well, naomi watts

the haunting of bly manor (horror - 1 series - complete)

loosely based on the novella the turn of the screw by henry james, the series follows dani clayton, a young american woman hired as an au pair for the children of the wealthy wingrave family in england. after arriving at the bly estate, she begins to see apparitions that proceed to haunt the premises.

i personally LOVE all of mike flanagan's series, and this one is no exception, however (unpopular opinion) i do find the second half of it kinda lacking. it's still a fantastic show tho, and i adore victoria pedretti

killing eve (thriller - 4 seasons - complete [but at what cost])

the series follows eve polastri, a british intelligence investigator tasked with capturing an assassin named villanelle. as the chase progresses, the two develop a mutual obsession.

once again i wasn't sure whether to rec this or not because while the first two seasons of this show are honestly some of my all time favorite, and the third season is still acceptable, the last one is honestly one of the biggest disappointment i've ever experienced in television. still, i think it's a staple of wlw shows in the last decade so i had to include it

warrior nun (fantasy drama - 2 seasons - cancelled, but we should be getting a revival as a trilogy of feature films. hopefully)

the story follows ava silva, a a 19-year-old orphan who wakes up in a morgue with a new lease on life and a divine artifact embedded in her back. she discovers she is now part of the ancient order of the cruciform sword that has been tasked with fighting demons on earth, and powerful forces representing both heaven and hell want to find and control her.

when i tell you i was so skeptical when i started this show but it's honestly SO GOOD, it really has it all: talented cast, beautifully-written three-dimensional characters and relationships of all varieties, gorgeous cinematography, amazing fight scene choreography.......THEY BETTER DELIVER THOSE MOVIES OR IM GONNA BE SO UPSET

AND NOW LET ME ADD SOME SHOWS WITH WLW RELATIONSHIPS IN A BIGGER ENSEMBLE CAST

sense8 (scifi drama - 2 seasons - complete)

the story follows eight strangers as they discover that they form a cluster of "sensates": human beings who are mentally and emotionally linked, can sense and communicate with one another, and can share their knowledge, language and skills.

i don't think i could say something about this show that hasn't already been said tbh. it's wonderfully queer and explores issues related to identity, sexuality, gender, and politics. it's honestly a must watch.

the wilds (drama - 2 seasons - cancelled)

the series revolves around a group of teenage girls who are left stranded on a deserted island after their plane crashes on the way to the dawn of eve program, a young women's empowerment retreat. while the girls try to survive, they are unaware that they're actually the subjects of a social experiment.

AMAZON PRIME YOU WILL PAY FOR YOUR CRIMES PT. 2 STOP CANCELLING MY FAVORITE SHOWS 😭

yellowjackets (horror - 2 seasons - on going)

in 1996, a new jersey high school girls' soccer team travels to seattle for a national tournament. while flying over canada, their plane crashes deep in the wilderness, and the surviving team members are left stranded for nineteen months. the series follows both their attempts to stay alive in 1996 and the lives of the survivors 25 years later, in 2021, as the events of their ordeal continue to affect them many years after their rescue.

i. freaking. LOVE. this show!!!!!!!! but it also comes with a mile long list of trigger warnings, including cannibalism, SA, abuse, animal killing, etc. maybe it's silly to point this out considering the genre of the show, but still. just be safe if you do decide to watch it!!!!!!

and this is pretty much it!!!! this is obviously not a comprehensive list, im aware i left out some popular shows and other ones that feature sapphic relationships between side characters, but these are my personal favorites and they also feel like the series where the wlw part of the story is fairly front and center, at least imho ;;;;;;;;

#OH GOD THIS GOT SO LONG IM SORRY #i do hope you can find something that you like in this!!!!!#and thank your for trusting me with this question!!!!!!#hope you're having a wonderful day all cozied up and warm in your house!!!!!! 💜#wlw shows #show recs #long post #m: ask
