[astermagne]

I wanted to try this x reader Hc thing out

Lucifer + Adam x Reader with sensitive hearing

Lucifer, canon au

- At first, the songs he breaks into are pretty loud , he can’t help it! He gets so excited and loves to go all out. However , the songs usually end in a broken abrupt chord once he sees you wince /in pain

- He tends to forget you have sensitive hearing constantly. He feels so guilty and berates himself mentally for it :<

- However, he does try to make up for it by buying you only the BEST noise canceling headphones,those very nice comfy ones that don’t hurt your ear. He’ll either buy it for you or make his own! But he’s definitely not buying it from VoxTech.

- It’s honestly a bumpy relationship , so you’ve both decided to keep it platonic, and there’s nothing wrong with that.

Lucifer, vampire au

- He’s much more quiet toned in this au. You actually love to hear him talk, whether it’s by how he talks, or part of his vampire’s charm. A prince of the night,things are quiet around his place. As long as you don’t venture into the dungeons-

- He only yells when he’s in an argument with his family, which by that point he makes sure you're safely away. Who knows when a powerful fight will break out, and he doesn’t want you to be a casualty from the collateral damage.

- His place is honestly really nice?? The days are very quiet since almost everyone is asleep, aside from the day servants who do their work. But they don’t bother you.

- The night comes alive in candlelight all over the place. Soft music reverbs in the air from the ballroom a couple stories below. You enjoy it from your room , or out in one of the big gardens. In some areas it’s so muffled you can actually fall asleep to it .

- Sadly earplugs and headphones weren’t a thing back then, so you don’t have fancy noise canceling technology. However, you do have a very powerful vampire who could or could not put a spell or so over your room . But then again, it’s your room, why would you need it? It’s not loud. But could he do it? It’s a possibility .

- You do have a headband you wear, should you choose to go out in the market or whatnot. It’s a little tight and has padding , so it does help to block out a little of the crowd and bustling noises . You can easily hide it under your hat /whatever headwear you have on.

- Honestly this life is so nice and peaceful. Aside from all the fighting and wars those vampires have going on, but you’re pretty protected from it so it’s sort of fine

Adam, canon au

- “What”

- “Ohhhh”

- Oh he is r e a d y. Earplugs, headphones, helmets that cancel out a lot of noise, he’s got you covered.

- He thinks nothing of it, he gets it. He’s got you 👌🏻

- That helmet of his can do a lot of things, one such being he can turn down his own volume, and makes it so it’ll do so via facial recognition .

- “So , because you’re wearing headphones all the time, here’s my new album.” You probably have 40,711 playlists from him alone by now

- “That’s so cool, like,you can hear shit other people can’t, rock on”

- The moment someone bullies you or tries to hurt you by being loud purposefully, Adam will shove them off and deal with them.

- He can play anything and everything, including soft slow notes. He doesn’t mind. I mean hey, you love his music, don’t you? Who cares what he plays as long as he can get your smile and praise!

- During private moments, he absolutely uses mouth sounds, and loves to whisper in your ears. He loves to see you shiver from it.

I will pull up a muse list so you know who you can send in asks for if you want to

[st-alastors-confessional]

Sinners, rejoice!

Exhaultation awaits.

Gather to the fold, turn your gaze from sin, and rid yourself of impurity.

I invite you, dear Sinner, to feast upon my gospel. Join me in the Confessional and expel your truest, darkest desires, so that I may lift you out from the pits of temptation.

Come unto Me.

Hey 👋🏽

NB | They/Them | 26yo

So, I post that Good Gay Shit and y’all throw unadulterated thoughts, headcanons, and whatnot into my asks.

That’s it.

[Doesn't have to be filth, but it's always welcomed.]

TAG KEY

#Forgiven: Confessions

#Anon Shares: Whatever doesn’t fit as a Confession

#Admin Confessions: My shit posts

I'll roleplay a "Holier Than Thou" Alastor when answering asks. (Don’t get me wrong, he’s still a demon- it’s just that the outfits make him feel ✨cunty✨)

RadioApple is very very very welcomed here, but honestly- if it Gays, it Stays (just don't be weird about it yall, check the Hard NOs list before sending pls)

HARD NOs

• Sexual assault

• Incest

• Pedophilia

• Racism (Remember and respect that Alastor is a Creole man)

• Homophobia

• Transphobia

• Beastiality

You will be BLOCKED if I get even a WHIFF of this shit.

If you somehow missed it in my bio:

MINORS DO NOT INTERACT.

I will not interact with asks from ageless blogs.

Also, please don't come here to lecture me or anyone else on this blog about real world religion. I've done my time, and had my fill.

Now I write fanfiction about boys topless, oiled up, kissing each other probably.

This blog is just for fun- have a go!

Which brings me to my final point: I will also casually filth dump on here if and when the spirit moves me.

Man's gotta scrub their brain of Unholy Shit too.

Anyways, welcome to the Confessional and enjoy your time here x

I look forward to speaking with you.

~ Quick addition! ~

Because this has happened quite a few times already, I’d like to make it clear:

Please DO NOT send real world shit into my asks. I won’t interact with people’s real life trauma.

It’s a huge mental and emotional load for me to answer heavy shit, plus vicarious trauma exists, and that’s not the goal of this blog.

Keep it fun, y’all ❤️

If you need help, please seek your local GP or mental health professional, or reach out to friends and family. There is no shame or harm in doing so. We all need help, it’s part of being human x

Thanks again, my dears.

I'm terrified to post this. So watch me sprinting away into the distance after dropping this.

Open love letter to -in extension to the wider ST community on tumblr, but especially- to the fellowship of Sleep because without you, life would be much more lonely

My Friends,

It was today when it finally dawned on me that you gave me the most undescribably precious gift. Many of you probably going to relate to this to some degree because i am not unique in any sense but i had to get this out. And by just the sheer lenght probably not many of you will read it. But i still need to put this out there, even if i'm being obnoxious and probably sound overdramatic and maybe even cringy.

I struggle with a lot of things. Anxiety, self doubt, depression, paranoia, self destructive tendencies, self isolation and the list goes on to even darker places. All in all i have a suboptimal mental state to put it lightly. I feel inadequate in many ways. Especially with connecting to people.

To this day, i struggle every day, seeing my friends, you, talk on a daily basis, have inside jokes and wonderful conversations and whatnot and either i like it or not, thoughts intrude: "am i doing enough? Am i a good enough of a friend? Do i really have a place among these wonderful bright souls? Am i intruding? Am i inserting myself into spaces i do not have any right to be? Am i forcing myself into your circles?"

For the longest time, on most days the conclusion was no. I do not belong. You were just being nice to the pathetic little creature in the corner because by nature you are simply kind. But as the weeks went by i learned that you are also awkward people with your own stuggles and hardships which are far harder and more painful than mine. That you are choosing to be kind every day, in spite of what life threw at you. Because you know.

I started to see you also crave a particular type of companionship and you reach out with the same trembling hands, hoping that someone sees it and grabs it. That someone finally says: you are not alone. I am here. For you. With you.

And you did. You've seen a bunch of hands fumbling in the dark, desperate to hold onto something and went: yeah.. i think i'll grab all of them. Because we are coming from the same darkness. And if i can help pull you into the light than you might have the strenght to do the same for me, so we can all sit in the warmth of the fire. The fire we built together. A fire that is growing ever brighter and allowes us to see even more hands on the edges to be pulled and invited into the circle.

So we have. For a while sitting almost silently, showing the things we found along the way. Tentatively feeling out the boundries. Than we broke the silence. You even started to call me your friend at some point. I already considered you mine because i'm painfully lonely and just the gesture, that you included me among the hands you grabbed was enough for me to see you mine. But all in all, for some unknowable reason, we became friends.

The weeks turned into months and i felt a bit more comfortable to approach you on my own clumsy and awkward ways. Many of you know by now that Tiny Token was born because i was too afraid to send a happy birthday ask to someone. I still apologize regularly just for adding thoughts to posts even if i only do it in tags. I am afraid. Of so many thing.

We still don't talk daily. Yet we still call each other friend. We have actual plans now. I still stuggle with the though of not being enough. There are still days when i feel you just feeling pity towards me.

But lately there is an other thought there. Which makes me feel bad for thinking that way. A thought that's never been there before. "If i was truly bothersome or annoying or any way too unpleasent, you could simply walk away. This is the internet after all. You could just block me. You have the option to walk away but you are time and time again choosing not to. No matter how many days pass by with us not talking, you are there. I can count on you. I'm still hesitant to reach out and dump my superficial adversities on you. But i also see you keeping the door ajar, leaving the option there to be approached if anyone needs it. So it would be not just a disservice but an outright insult to you if i'd think you are just acting out of pity. But if you like me than.. there has to be something about me to actually to be worth knowing?"

And that is doing something that ten years worth of failed therapy could not. You made me question my self doubt. It is still there and will be for the rest of my life. But now there is a steady counter balance i never had this solidly in my life ever before.

I'm still afraid to ask even if anyone would be up for a talk, let alone a call because i have little to offer in conversations. I don't talk much by default and that is not a good base for conversations. I'm still terrified of overstaying my welcome. But i also know now that you probably wouldn't mind from time to time. Because you understand. Maybe one day i will get there. I don't know when but there is a hope i never truly had before.

This is something i will never be able to repay you. Thank you for understanding that we all have different levels of anxiety and fear and not holding it against one and other. I'm writing this to you with immens love and eternal gratitude i cannot truly express in any way that does it justice: Thank you for showing me hope. Thank you for being the way you are.

You gave me the biggest gift there is to give.

You gave me your friendship.

I love you.

Yours in friendship,

Levynn

Taking a little breaky break

This is just a heads up for my small little group of people on here. I have come to call my friends. I just wanted to let you all know that I'm going to be taking a much needed respite from tumblr and probably discord, too. I am feeling lost, sad,overwhelmed, and confused.

I know it sounds silly or whatnot, but all of this stuff is overwhelming and depressing, and I feel sick when I open this app at this point.

The best word to use, I guess, would be winded, maybe?

I joined Tumblr in Sept 23, and at first, it was really fun, a much needed escape from my daily never-ending list of crap to do.

I unfortunately learned how crazy this fandom can get early on and the hard way. I had hoped that that was just a one-off due to my newbie ignorance and took it as a lesson learned for myself.

But it's starting to feel like the drama never fucking stops. It just keeps going, and nice people, kind people, just get dragged and ridiculed for seemingly no reason. I will pathetically admit that I am a sensitive soul, and the things I've read and seen have seriously negatively affected me.

When people are catty regarding people they don't like or that don't like them, I can usually reconcile that to a particular degree. People are, in fact, people. Not everyone is going to vibe with everyone, and people will make jokes at others' expense, and it isn't exactly mature, but it happens.

That is what I expected when I heard this was coming. Some catty shit slinging between people who don't like each other.

But that isn't all this was, and I'm having a really hard time with that. I even thought, "Oh maybe some moderately rude jokes here and there where you know cultural differences and stuff could account for that" like I'm from the northeast and we can be harsh out here. So something that may be offensive to someone from another area may be looked at here just as a joke made in poor taste.

I know I myself have made jokes or whatnot, but you would think certain things would be off limits.

I thought I could combat the negative with positives. Silly jokes, little messages filled with love, but even that isn't working at this point.

My heart hurts, and my brain hurts.

And all this stuff has made me question myself. I had a block list a mile long for the longest time. Filled predominantly with people I had never spoken to because I was scared, nervous, I didn't want to accidentally interact with a post of someone who would be upset that I did, I unfollowed blogs I liked based on this same principle. I just desperately did not want to make someone mad or uncomfortable and find myself back in some weird mean anon tornado.

I tried to sus out who would be bothered by my presence and who wouldn't. I can't even know if my thoughts on who may or may not be upset by me were based on my paranoia or a perception i developed or was potentially affected by outside sources.

Now, i just don't know what the hell is going on.

Sorry for the word vomit. Just wanted to be honest. There are some of us out here who are just standing around with question marks over our heads.

Maybe it's because I wasn't here for a lot of that other weirdness. Maybe it's because of early events that shaped my experience on this app, but I for sure 100% need a break.

I'm an odd duck and love this app mostly because it's the only site I've seen where others actively fan-girl over my favorite Ewan character.

But right now, not even my love for Will can keep me on this app, and for those who know me, that's truly saying something.

This post is not meant to badmouth anyone at all. Honestly at this point I couldn't bad mouth anyone because I'm fucking lost on who anyone really is or how they really feel about things, dude I'm just plain lost.

Thank you to those who have been kind. My apologies to those I may have judged or assumed things about based on who the hell knows.

I hope that when I come back, I can open this app without yet another person that I like having a post of them being torn apart. Or a post of a story that I had heard being told in a completely different way and throwing me for a complete loop.

For now I am going to watch Will edits on TikTok and maybe read via Ao3.

Love and healing vibes to all.

[thebibliosphere]

Hey Joy! I hope you're doing alright and your spoons have started to recover from your last migraine

if you have extra spoons or just want to open it up to your community, I have questions about erotica and amazon.

Is there any content that amazon nukes that isn't implicitly part of it's TOS or written rules? For examples I guess:

Knots in erotica (were-anything, dragons, etc.) I heard from a friend that they don't allow this so they're trying to work around this by calling it everything but a knot.

How 'steamy' is too steamy? I know for non hetero they gloss over a lot of them but I guess what keywords did you have to avoid to not be shadow banned on their algorithm

I read up a little on what kinds of cover pictures were acceptable and that's just, weird but I guess color blocks and silhouettes are all in right now (It's erotica, why not have somebody in a questionable pose?!?)

And I guess this final question is a little outside what your book series did, but non humanoid love interests (more akin to Shape of Water and other love interests that look less like humans). What does Amazon expect the writers to avoid (aside from writing them in general) and what goods ways are there to put tags, the blurb, etc?!

Thank you Joy, and community, you rock!

So, for the most part, provided you stick to the TOS with Amazon, you're fine. However, the Amazon censors are human and have their own biases you have to contend with. Amazon also recently purged their dark romance category, which was an actual thing, presumably in an attempt to look squeaky clean despite romance and erotica being the backbone upon which KDP is built. Yay, sanitized capitalism...

I'm not aware of 'knotting' being banned, though it probably depends on whether you're writing straight or queer erotica and which human you get on the other end of the screen when it comes to final approval. There's a well-known problem with a homophobic censor on the weekends (Fuck you, Carlos, 🖕) who seemingly tends to knock back LGBTQ+ content on a whim. Hilariously, he knocked back the Fluff version of Hunger Pangs the first time I submitted it for approval. I didn't make any changes to the file and reuploaded it on Monday. Problem solved. (This also happened to Chuck Tingle about a year ago, though I can't seem to find the thread atm.)

When it comes to het-content, you can start the book with dubcon, and likely, nothing will happen. Queer content, you will want to give yourself a longer build-up to avoid getting knocked back. I've heard that censors stop reading after 20% but don't quote me on that. Putting certain content after that mark may be a way to avoid getting certain things picked up. When it comes to the algorithm, don't tag it like fic. Things like Shifter Romance, Monster Romance, and Gay Romance are acceptable (or whatever category you are in), but DO NOT tag it the way you would fic. A list like gay, shifter, knotting, BDSM, kink, tentacles--whatever-- is not how the Amazon algorithm works. Avoid putting trigger/content warnings anywhere inside the book as well. If you want a comprehensive list of content tags for your readers, you'll need to do what I did and have a specific page on your website listed at the front of your book, but you'll also want to keep that page inactive on your website until the book gets approved. These are the hoops we jump through to let our readers make informed choices... Also, don't tag it as queer anywhere. You can't even use 'queer' in reviews on Amazon anymore. 🙃

The reason you're currently seeing the trend of vector art and whatnot is twofold: one, it's cheaper than hiring models or paying for certain licensed content. Secondly, it's to avoid being flagged as erotic because we live in the bad place where everything must be sanitized for advertisers. You'll still see the odd headless hot-abbed torso, but it's safer to have non-explicit content on the cover. If you want a good example of how to code something as erotic without using explicit images, take a look at Katee Robert's covers. They tend to have a symbolic image framed in the middle surrounded by darkness with very vibrant colors--usually an electric purple, red or green.

In terms of content, in theory, as long as you are sticking to the TOS, you're fine. As for tagging, I sort of already answered this with how to tag via website links, but as for how to write blurbs, you're going to want to phrase it as something hintingly vague. For example: After an accident at work, Merissa finds herself plunged into an alternate fantasy dimension ruled over by the merfolk of Atlan'titsia. Captured, she is brought before the mysterious Prince SexyMonster, who claims her for himself. Bound and displayed as an oddity in his court, she is torn between her desire to return home and to learn more about this strange new place where desire rules supreme, and the rules are not at all what she expects... Or something to that effect. Don't ask me. I'm rubbish at blurbs, lmao.

Anyway, it's been a minute since I contended with Amazon's uploads, and some of this may have changed. If it has, I'd be curious to know what has changed. I hope some of that helps, though.

Also, before anyone starts ragging on Amazon for any of this, the TOS are pretty universal across the board. It's just more evident with Amazon because it's often the only place indies can afford to publish.

~Masterlist~

Part 4~Part 6

The cold is what hit first. After Thor's departure, a huge snowstorm hit. As far as the eye can see, there is a thick layer of snow. Roads are blocked and work seems to start an hour later than before. Luckily for you, your room has a big fireplace. And if you aren't needed in the moment, you'd likely be found there.

The coats the maids gave you were fine, but you're used to hotter climates. And it seems Thor's capes have a thick layer of wool, providing much more warmth than the provided coats.  

You find yourself growing more comfortable in Thor's absence. The door is always open now and you've decorated with the only flowers growing through the snow, snowdrops. The place is almost always lit and you have dinner in the kitchen.  

You've grown a close bond with the maid who showed you around before. Mira turns out to be her name. She is usually the one making sense of things for you. Which brings into question, the ruling.

Lucky for you, it's early in the winter and the kingdom is quite used to it. Therefore there are no food shortages, yet. You are not crowned, so there was no need for mass, and no weddings or punishments would be carried out.  

All you truly were tasked to do, was continue to keep the peace. The nobleman and advisors were all already tasked by Thor with something to do. Largely, you were not needed.

And thus, Mira suggested going out to the winter market. You gladly took up her offer, after all, you've been stuck in the castle for the last 3 months now.  

Never before had you been in Thor's kingdom and it's highly unlikely he'd let you wander like you truly wanted to. You know well enough now, that running or trying to hide would only cause a scene.

He'd be quick to find you and your punishment would likely outweigh the unlikelihood of freedom. The advisors were greatly against it, worried for your safety and in consequence their own heads. You ignored them.  

The air is crisp and cold and you can't help but pull Thor's cloak closer to your body. People weave all around the stalls, the kiddies stand on their tippy toes and some people even climb trees only just to see you. See the lady wearing their king's clothes, accompanied by the king's men.  

You shift uncomfortably in your steps, incredibly unused to the attention. "Am I doing something wrong?" You whisper to Mira, who only just giggles at the reactions.

"No at all, my lady, it's just they only see the king on special occasions. Like celebrations, punishments or feasts. Even then it's almost to get a close look at him, with the warriors and whatnot." You furrow your brows at her words.  

"The warriors?" Her eyes grow wide. "I apologize, he must've not mentioned them then. Please ignore it. Like I said, they never see the king. Much less do they see him with a lady." Your cheeks blush at her words. You're the first lady he's let live supposedly, not only that but the only one he's ever been seen with? How much are you missing?  

"Come, the longer we stand here, the longer they'll stare." And with that, you make your way through the stalls. The first few are mostly foods, dried fruits, dried meats, seeds and fresh fish. It's only later on that the more artsy marketers stand.

One, a jewel maker. The necklace catches your eye instantly. A delicate chain, with a dove flying away as the pendant. The realisation that you have no money hits you.  

"You like it?" It's an old woman, clearly touched by the ages. Her hair is in complex braids, making you miss the one Thor made that you had to take out. None of the other maids know how to tie it. You've settled for the simple pulled-back look.

You smile at her, "I do. It reminds me of the king. Little dove." You imitate his voice, never before have you questioned the name.  

She holds back a laugh at your joke. "I don't have any money. I can't believe I didn't think of it." You giggle and shake your head, likely the cold is getting to you. She shakes her head, "Well, little dove, you suit the king perfectly." She lifts up the necklace, examining her own handy work.

"You know much of him?" You can't help but ask, nobody else seems willing to talk, all too scared.  

"Oh, yes, dear. I've lived here for over 80 years. I've seen a few things in my time." Her eyes speak of the memories she so desperately wants to share. "I tell you what, dear, you can have the necklace...and if you ever come to visit me I'll tell you all I know." She winks, placing the necklace in a small wooden box and then into your hands.  

Your eyes stretch and you shake your head, "No, please. I couldn't possibly." She denies your refusal. "Just be sure to visit. My cabin is deep in the forest. I'll know when you're coming." Again she sends a sneaky wink. You can't help but grin at her mischievous energy. "All right, I promise."  

The whole castle is in a panic. Everybody is weaving in and out of rooms, and the welcome committee is scrambling to get everything together. Most impossibly, getting you out of bed.

It's well into the night. You've been asleep for a good two or three hours. The fireplace is crackling, you're deep into the covers and the smell of the snow clouds has put you into a deep rest.  

That is of course, until the door slams open. "My lady, my lady!" It's Mira, she too looks barely put together. After all, she too was well asleep. "They're coming! They're coming! We must get you ready!"

The reason for being awakened has not clicked in your mind. All you let out is a grumble and groans of defiance. "The king is coming and he was adamant you greet him, remember?"  

"What king?" You mumble, rubbing your eyes before finally opening them. Her frantic state shocks you into remembering. "Oh yes! The king!" You fling yourself out of bed, you and Mira both scramble to get you presentable. 

Before you know it, you're standing on the front steps of the palace. The horns of his announcement blow as the gates open. In the dark of night they are only shadows that follow the bricks laid out the castle front. It's only when Thor reaches the top steps of the castle that your eyes stretch wide as dinner plates.  

The candlelight bounces off of him, he is soaked, head to toe, in blood. He doesn't look to be limping or uncomfortable. His golden hair and beard, usually the image of perfection, are now coated in red. His clothes, everything down to the pool forming around his feet is scarlet coloured. "Little dove," he greets you not an ounce of pain in his voice.  

You bow low, "My king, Thor." He grunts at your greeting and then turns to show the three men behind him. They too, are dripping in blood. But that's not the most striking part about them.

Their eyes glow, two a shade of brown almost orange. The colour of tiger's eye gems, so bright that they too light up the room. The other has the same as Thor, bring blue, like the sky on a clear summer's day.  

"These are the Warriors Three. Volstagg, Fandral and Hogun. They are the only ones, besides myself, that you may trust with your life." Thor's voice is like gravel in your ears. The shock sends you into a dizzy spin. The state that they're in and the realisation that Thor is not the only one. He is not the only one that has eyes that shine like the sun. Not the only one with eyes that others cannot see.  

"The famous! Thor's future wife! It's an honour little one, I am Volstagg." His stature is just as tall as Thor's. They each loom over you. While Volstagg tries to be kind, you still feel the need to run as far as you can.

He pats you on the shoulder and coos about how small you are. Not that you notice, all you can think about is the smell of copper now lingering in your body.  

Thor must've seen the colour draining from your face, he comes to your rescue. How much he will help is questionable, because he too smells of wet coins. "Come, little dove, help me get cleaned off." And with that, the maids scramble to get a bath ready for him. And of course, your new acquaintances, the Warriors Three.  

You're wearing my coat." He says, holding you up by the waist. There is a wet squelch as he presses your body against his. Your body had recovered in his absence, but now the bruises are certain to form again.

You clear your throat, "Yes, it has caused quite the commotion." You mutter out, trying your best to block out the smell and the noises and the blood dripping on your shoes.  

He laughs, bending down low to whisper in your ear. "I like it, I like them seeing you're mine." You shiver as the cold blood coats your neck. You and feel it ooze down your spine. You clear your throat, "Are you hurt?"  

He laughs quite loudly at this question. "Oh no, little dove, none of this is my blood." His words cause bile to rise in your throat.

People like to dunk on TvTropes for being a bunch of nerds who spend too much time cataloguing media and listing all the tropes in it, but it's honestly an underappreciated resource. There are few centralized websites that have such a spread of information on them.

Is it important to catalogue that in episode 53 of Star Catcher Jakobson IV, his left nut gets smacked with a hammer and that that's an example of the "Accidental CBT" trope? Not immediately, but it may be important if that ever becomes lost media.

Also, sometimes I forget exactly which episode a particular event in a series I've watched happens in, and TVTropes usually has my back on that. It also helps me catch up on characters from series that I watched or partially read a decade ago, since series's typically have an attached Characters page as well.

The Trivia pages for them, too! I've found out interesting information about production from things I've idly read about that I likely never would have found out about.

In summary, I think TVTropes is an amazing resource for information about what exactly happens in a work - Wikipedia's synopses are usually either incomplete, short summaries to avoid spoilers, or full blocks of text describing the entire story. IMDB is a back-of-the-movie style summary. Fandom fucking sucks as a wiki website, and most other Wikis that aren't Fandom aren't used and/or aren't regularly kept up-to-date. Miraheze is a good non-fandom website, though.

One thing I disagree with is them not allowing adult content and whatnot, which was a change I was there to witness - due to google not allowing ads if they kept pages about fetishes and hentai games and whatnot on the site. However, you can still go to alternate trope sites like AllTheTropes for that content.

Just remember that if TVTropes was gone and those nerds weren't cataloguing every bit of info about your favorite and least favorite media in excruciating detail with a cringey flair, you'd have to wade through incomplete Fandom Wikis and pages that exist but are completely empty, or that redlink to absolutely vital pieces of information.

Anyways I despise Fandomwiki

i got to write tonight...

Reaper76 modern AU - the meeting

Jack groaned and rolled over. His eyelids were heavy, but no sleep could relieve the tired ache in his bones. This exhaustion ran deeper than his head. It seeped into his blood, his muscles, his bones. Okay, he would admit that was a tad dramatic, but the insomnia truly did a number on him as of late.

He threw the covers off himself. Despite it being mid-autumn, the cursed city was always so warm. LA. City of Angels and whatnot, yet Jack had only met one. A detective who did his late-night shopping at the Quick Mart down the block. Reyes, he would overhear the cashier hail him by name. Gabriel Reyes, he'd come to learn. The man shared his name with a goddamned archangel. He looked every bit as fitting for it. Dark brown hair that had started to streak white by his temples, a goatee that Jack was shockingly attracted to… rich brown eyes and an endless list of heavenly features.

Jack sat up on his bed, getting lost in his imagination. The clock beside him read 2:47 A.M. Maybe he'd try his luck at the Quick Mart and try to spot his angel again. Hell, maybe he'd actually ask for his number this time.

With a grunt, Jack pulled himself out of bed and into his small closet. He sifted through his outfits, all rather plain. He went with the safest option, his gray hoodie and black skinny jeans. Not the ones with the ripped knees this time, too formal, he thought. Between his combat boots, his winter boots, and his work boots… he just pulled on the work boots.

He thinks about getting a better job so he can dress himself better… but nothing in this city suits him. He can't afford to move, either. Classic America. He sighs and dismisses the thought again. The Farm and Home shop was definitely the best job he could pull anyway.

And now he's going to go and try to flirt with a beautiful detective at a Quick Mart in the middle of the night. What had his life become?

He grabbed his wallet and his phone, then descended the stairs leading to the street below.

Much to his liking, the air almost had a chill to it. Maybe this hellish city would finally cool down, but it's no replacement to the midwest.

He walked with his hands in his hoodie pocket, down the block to the store.

He stepped through the automatic doors and made his way down to the produce section. He did actually need things to sustain himself. He perused into the frozen items section, glancing through the glass doors. He didn't hear the brooding figure that snuck up behind him.

Reyes stood beside him, clad in his rich burgundy coloured leather jacket. The scent of cologne prompted Jack to turn, nearly jumping out of his hide when he realized someone was beside him.

"Jesus-" He gasped, bringing a hand to his chest.

There was a low chuckle from the man beside him. He took a breath and smiled, then looked at the frozen food displays.

"You eat this shit?" Reyes asked, still grinning slightly.

Jack huffed and ran his hand over his hair as he collected himself.

"Yeah? I can't afford a beautiful dinner every night of the week." He answers plainly.

Gabriel pursed his lips and sucked in a calculated breath.

"Guy like you shouldn't be living offa this shit." He glanced back at Jack with a curious furrow in his eyebrow.

It was Jack's turn to laugh a bit.

"A guy like me doesn't have a choice, unfortunately." Jack has a small grin on his face as he goes back to his selection.

Gabriel checks the watch on his wrist, biting his tongue as he considers his options.

"I'd feel a lot better if you'd let me get you something. Hell, I'll cook for you, I don't have a bedtime." He has this sort of smug look on his face as he suggests this, like he already knows the answer.

Jack stares blankly at the steely man for a moment, unsure how to respond.

"What?" Real smooth, Jack.

Gabriel let out another grumbly laugh.

"I want to cook you dinner, sunshine. Just to spare you another night of this slop." He takes the TV dinner out of Jack's hands, the motion is gentle.

Jack is dumbfounded. He came here to ask for this man's number but Gabriel turned the whole encounter on its head. Jack's tongue feels heavy as a brick in his mouth, removing his ability to form a meaningful sentence. He nods his head.

"Y- yeah-" He stammered the word out.

Gabriel beamed as he led Jack out the door, paying for both of their groceries aside from the omitted frozen foods. Gabriel points down the block, opposite from Jack's route home.

"My apartment is down there two streets away. You don't mind a little walking?" He raises an eyebrow at the blonde man.

Jack shakes his head.

"Could probably use it, it's almost nice out here." Jack follows Gabriel along the battered sidewalk.

"You like colder weather?" Gabriel turns his upper half a bit to appear attentive.

"Absolutely. This city is like Hades every season but winter." Jack lets out a huff at this passionate subject.

"I take it you didn't grow up here." He can hear the smirk on Gabriel's face.

"No, I didn't."

"East Coast?" Gabriel guesses.

Jack shakes his head.

Gabriel narrows his eyes.

"Ohio?"

Jack shakes his head. "Close."

"No way- you're a farm boy, aren't you?"

Jack lets out a small laugh.

"Up until I was 19, yeah. I'm going to assume you can tell the rest." Jack puts his hands back into his hoodie pocket.

Gabriel nods, and gets a bit of a more resolute look on his face.

"Military." He pauses to look Jack up and down. "Boring wardrobe… can't figure out how a guy like you ends up in Los Angeles."

"Just imagine I closed my eyes and threw a dart at a map." Jack shrugs.

"Ohh… I'll have to make you dinner if I want more info huh." Gabriel shakes his head.

Jack laughs slightly. "I can't give up the mystery on the first night…"

"Damn you." Gabriel smiles as they fall into silence the rest of the way back to Gabriel's apartment.

Hey hey! This right come off as a bit weird(hopefully not lol-) but do you have like a dni list? Or can like anyone interact? Like 18+ or whatnot? Sorry if it’s a weird question just wanted to know since I didn’t notice a byi list hahah;;

hi!!

dw it’s not a weird question at all! on the contrary it’s quite the good question.

but i don’t. mainly because if you don’t like my work(s) then it’s up to you to block me and not interact. plus i usually look at the profiles who follow me and block accordingly

i also don’t really see the point because a lot of people don’t follow ‘dni lists’ and it’s always a pain to heavily enforce it. and since i don’t post a ton of yandere content. and post smut only once in a blue moon, i didn’t really see a point in it

i’ll create one one day just to be safe, as well as a rules section. i say this now because my account is steadily growing and it would be irresponsible of me to let it continue to grow without making any updates / boundaries for my works.

especially since i want to start exploring darker / more mature themes.

but as of right now, i always block ageless blogs and blogs with no indication of an owner/ photoless blogs (alleged bots)

[solarandmoon]

Pinned post for how this thing works.

This Blog is run by me (Moon) and Solar. (Solar here, Hi.) Because Lunar nagged us to, bonding and as something we can do together to keep our minds off...stuff.

Sometimes some our family/friends may try butting into the blog as well.

Before getting into the other information on how the blogs run, general information, etc-

Moon: (That's me.) I'll add a link to an introduction or whatever later I guess, I'll use Italics when the one typing.

Solar: (Hi.) I guess I'll made an intro as well as some point. I use bold to make it easier.

TAGS list:

#asks - asks (pretty straight forward, but ok.)

#solar muses - If I answer or post, this is my tag.

#moon rambles - Moon's tag (Really Solar?) (It's cute.)

#lunar yells - Lunar's tag

#computer states - The computer's tag

#musings - OOC stuff

#showcase - Little pop ins and 'offline' view of how things are at the time, little moments and sneak peaks happening 'in world'

#reblogs - Self explanatory

suggestive content will be tagged with a CW (along with anything else that might need it)

Additional stuff:

More about Moon

More about Solar

We will turn anon asks off if you are jerks about it

Swearings fine, suggestive asks and dirty jokes as well, even flirting (...towards Solar, also feel free to tease him, it's funny.)

No hate, insults, bigotry, homophobia, trnasphobia, ableism, etc.

Teasing Moon is also fine, he can dish it but he can't take it. (Solar, SHUT.)

Magic anon: N/A

Additionally we may occasionally reblog stuff (tags will show who) and/or otherwise interact with other posts as well.

(RP accounts CAN interact with them, but limited to talking only much like the no Magic anon rule, Lore may be dropped through these interactions. Like friends talking on tumblr kinda thing (See agenericrepairbot blog's interaction with other RP blogs type deal)

This blog will contain swearing, potentially heavy topics, suggestive content. (This will be tagged for things as needed)

Say hi or whatnot.

OOC under cut:

HELLO! Jester here, I run this blog, @jestersdlc (technically another side blog but my main's SMoon so...that one!)

I use she/they/ ey/em/eir! I am not a minor but anyone who knows most of my blogs will see some stuff here as....pretty different from how I usually do stuff (Such as swearing, not big on swearing or such but allowing for this blog! ^-^)

This blog has endgame SolarMoon, so expect that, if that's not for you then no need to be here!

Discrimination is NOT allowed, no hate, no insults no bigotry or anyone of that, I will block you.

Also, Magic anon powers are.....going to be limited if not at all possible, you can tell them stuff and try to influence them with WORDS but no time bending things, y'all aren't Dream Eater after all ;3

[kellycalliekell2]

Due to the nature of this blog and the traction it’s been getting, I want to set some rules and expectations I have for those seeing my work.

-First, I don’t want any of my work to be shared on any other social media site. I don’t want the actors I draw, to see my work of their characters in nsfw ways. If I begin to see my work on any other site, or worse, the celeb tagged? I will stop posting uncensored work and only show the censored images. I’ll then move the uncensored stuff to Patreon.

I don’t want to take this to Patreon (yet) as I know not everyone has the means to pay for a membership. I will if it stops the sharing of said work.

-Second. I don’t take requests for the main reason that I believe custom work should be paid for. I’m privileged in that I don’t rely on my artwork for survival, but I know others do, and it’s unfair that I do things for free while they have to work hard to get paid. Also, I don’t really like requests as it stresses me out trying to ensure you’re happy.

-Third. No minors. In truth, I’d prefer anyone with teen in their age to not be on here. I hope that if you are one, you’ll stay away. I ask others to send me the blog names of minors so I can block them.

-Lastly, and this one is just my comfort as an artist. Please don’t refer/tag any of my work as ‘mommy (character name)’. The mommy kink makes me incredibly uncomfortable, and I don’t want my work associated with it.

~~~~~

For those curious on who I’ll work on, here is a list of the actor and their character:

Cate Blanchett:

Hela/Carol Aird/ Lou Miller/ Galadriel/ Lydia Tár/ Lady Tremaine

Gwendoline Christie:

Larissa Weems/ Brienne of Tarth/ Gwen (in fabric)/ Lucifer Morningstar/ Miranda Hilmarson/ Jane Murdstone

Misc characters:

Captain Marvel/ Natasha Romanoff/ Yelena Belova/ King Valkyrie/ Loki/ Bucky Barnes/ Steve Rogers/ Xena & Gabrielle/ Daenerys Targaryen/ Rhaenyra Targaryen/ Olivia Benson/ Harley Quinn/ Barbie/ Diana Prince/

* I will absolutely NOT draw a celebrity as NSFW.*

*All my nsfw will be made to be a likeness of the character, as I want to respect the actors self as much as possible*

∘₊✧──────✧₊∘

┏━•❃°•°❀°•°❃•━┓

I’m a 20 year old witch named Nimbus.

I use the she—her pronouns.

This blog will serve as a spot for me to post my knowledge

I’ve gathered throughout the years.

┗━•❃°•°❀°•°❃•━┛

✬More in-depth✬

I enjoy reading, writing, and learning in general. Which translates into me having a lot of nonsensical albeit trivial information on a variety of topics, but I’m always going to site my sources when needed. I don’t pretend as if I know absolutely everything about any given topic, though I will say I do know quite a bit about a few such as astrology (though, I’m still learning how to make predictions), Tarot-reading (I LOVE doing and speaking about tarot), as well as crafting spells (though, I most likely will speak very limitedly on this topic).

If at any point in time something I’ve said sparks any form of a question, please feel free to ask me! I’m more than happy to explain myself further, just maybe not on the spell-work things. I’ll go over basic correspondences and whatnots, but I will not get into how or why my spell worked, which specific deity I contacted for help, or whatever else in that nature.

But, if you’re afraid to ask a question publicly (I’m pretty sure I have anonymous asks turned on), please be sure to message me.

I hope to build a little family of followers on here; so please feel free to follow this blog even if you are not a witch or into the occult, or you’re just trying to feel everything out!

I do not have an DNI list, as I use the block button freely. Do not be an asshole, and you will not get blocked!

Have a great day.

The Ultimate Vriska Showdown

Hi, everyone! After a few delays, here is the final bracket for my Vriska poll! This poll asks for the "most iconic Vriska." What "iconic" means is up to the individual voter.

If you didn't see the nomination post, a Vriska-archetype character is defined as follows:

To encourage a greater variety of characters, I changed requirement 4 to "queer" instead of strictly "attracted to women." I also allowed characters who didn't fill either requirements 1 or 4 to be in the poll, as those requirements were less important in defining a "Vriska" than requirements 2, 3, and 4.

The first round will be up on February 21st at 8 AM PST. I'll be making a separate post with all the links to polls to not clutter up this one. The links to the masterpost for each round are listed below, and will be updated throughout the poll.

Round 1 Masterpost (Feb. 21-Feb. 22)

Round 2 Masterpost (Feb. 23-Feb. 24)

Round 3 Masterpost (Feb. 25-Feb. 26)

Round 4 Masterpost (Feb. 27-Feb. 28)

Round 5 Masterpost (Mar. 1-Mar. 8)

The first four rounds will last for 24 hours, with a 24 hour gap between for me to prepare for the next round. The final round will last for one week to build suspense and whatnot. I'll be tagging everything with "#vriska poll" so people can still find the polls if I get delayed in linking everything. (Please bear with me - I'm a student)

This is an elaborate shitpost on my end, so I hope that everyone treats it as such. I'm always down for some funny arguing, but this tournament isn't intended to invite harassment to me or anyone who likes/dislikes the characters, franchises, or creators involved. There's a disclaimer under the readmore that goes into more detail.

A huge thanks to everyone who nominated a character. And a thank you to my friends who helped me work out the roster and seeding for the bracket! May the best (worst?) Vriska win!

Pandora

Disclaimer on the poll:

I, the creator of this poll, haven't interacted with about a third of the franchises listed in the roster. What I know about the characters, franchises, and the creators are from Tumblr osmosis or what the people who nominated the characters told me.

While the characters being controversial is part of the poll, I am aware there is controversy surrounding some franchises or creators, a lot of which I probably don't know about. Including these characters in the poll despite this is not an endorsement or condemnation of the franchises of creators.

I will try not to participate in any discourse that pops up about the characters in the polls themselves, though i may occasionally post about it using the "#vriska poll" tag. However, I will be keeping an eye on the notes to make sure no one is being bigoted or threatening. Anyone who says something openly bigoted or seriously threatens someone else will have that reply removed and be blocked.

If I see someone with a hilariously bad take, I will be screenshotting it. If I have enough screenshots by the end of the poll, I'll be putting together a compilation as a grand finale. I'll edit out the usernames on the comments for privacy. The exception to this is the aforementioned bigotry or threats. If I see something like that which would otherwise be good for the compilation, I'll screenshot it and block the user. The comment will not have the username edited out.

TL:DR: I don't openly endorse or condemn any of the creators or franchises on this poll. This is entirely for fun. I'll be making fun of the people clowning in the notes so if you're going to say something, make sure it's something you're okay with going on my cringe comp. Peace out.

[youdontloveme-yet]

So, the UN has voted. Not a binding vote of course. And those who were against were as per usual:

So idk about the Island countries enough to speak, but Austria was a fun addition. Not that it is a surprise, tho I expected them to just abstain.

So, here's the thing. US and Israel were you know, certain to be there, since fascism cannot thrive unless it represses. Czech Republic... I mean, as everyone else, under someone's boot, so I won't even go there. But Austria is a treat to this. Big, big treat. Let me put it like this: Austria along with Germany and the Netherlands are very much all about keeping outsiders out in a way. Austria has been one of the biggest and loudest opposition to Balkan countries for ages. Idk if it's the usual western type of mentality where we are uncivilized and uncultured and whatnot, but it's a known fact they've been blocking nations from Schengen for fucking years. And their fucking reasons have always been that they cannot keep the outside borders of the Europe safe. Mind you, this simply means that they don't want people from the Middle East to get into Europe, same reason why they absolutely hate Turkiye. The way I see it and have been seeing indications of it for years, they consider anything beyond Central Europe to be dirty, uneducated and a basic lowlife. So, showing their true form Infront of the entire world has been coming for some time.

While this does not surprise me, it only confirms my observations throughout the years. They, and I am not talking solely about Austria anymore, would much rather have a genocide unfold before their eyes, leading to a world war rather than have the possibility of immigrants. Hence the truth is European powers continue to live in favour of their racism and hatred, rather than take humanity as what it actually is.

I haven't looked at who has abstained from the vote, but I can bet money that the Netherlands and Germany are in that list. Basically those who are rapidly falling into fascism.

What I'm trying to say here is nothing really. Yet it is quite obvious. Draw your own conclusions I guess. Also, I want to clarify that I am talking exclusively about governments, not citizens. Since some love to make everything seem like a generalization. It is not. But it is about EU powers thriving on mayhem and destruction, as it fuels their fascist ideals.

I'd also like to mention that given the opportunity these governments would love to ban anyone and anything coming East from Central EU, as they've indicated throughout the years and the many instances in which I've spoken with people who were treated like second class humans in them.

Anyone who speaks of themselves as being better at fundamental things is a liar. And everyone who speaks of equality, yet complains about immigrants is a hypocrite.

I rest my case. Europe and America can go fuck themselves really. Descend into fascism deeper, your own grave.

And as always, free Palestine 🇵🇸

Ah, and don't stop talking about Palestine, protesting, boycotting, acting. The worst is yet to come. Isnotreal is known for ramping up massacres when things do not go their way, so watch out, be vigilant and stay safe.
