In honor of Halloween here's a prompt for discussion.

A disgruntled magic user is upset that magic users are being upstaged by all the superpowered heroes running around the DC universe. This person casts a spell to turn every person with powers into a monster for revenge. Hopefully, they reason, the public will fear those with powers after this and magic users will be the top of the food chain again.

Anyone with magic is unaffected (even those vaguely magic related like Beast Boy and Cassie) and anyone without powers is unaffected. The magic users and the non powered heroes would have to team up to break the curse and non lethally take down all of their monster friends before they hurt anyone.

Anyone with the same power sets becomes the same type of monster. (ie all the kryptonians would be the same species of monster ect) They would have to take on the morality of the creature they turn into and morality is based on mythological precedent. So any mermaids will likely try to drown people and you'll want to avoid pissing off the fae.

They also must take on the mental capacities of that monster. So if, per say, Plastic Man was turned into a werewolf he wouldn't just be a fluffy Plastic Man. No, he'd be a full blown hunting, howling, raging werewolf. (I will say that some monsters are more 'human' than others and in some cases the hero will be basically the same mentally speaking)

So who would be what and why?

[myownpersonalnotesapp]

[dont-play-with-me-choices]

Hold on a second. Were there even any hookups in this book besides Joaquin Phoenix and GILFtron 6000?

[clingylilhoneybee]

Okay but my most toxic trait is sending pictures of cute people to my partner

[iphisesque]

I just remembered the weirdest core memory. There was this book I was obsessed  with when I was a teen, I don’t remember the name but it was about a ninja-nun-like secret society of unicorn hunters. The unicorns are carnivorous and evil but this specific set of girl have some shit about them that allows them to fight the unicorns IF they are virgin. If they loose their virginity they loose their powers but also produce some magical shit, so, obviously capitalism wants to exploit it and some people are hired to try to seduce them and make them have sex to steal their magical virginity. And WHAT THE FUCK IT. I can’t find actual info on it and can’t figure out if it is real or a really fucked up dream I had, but I need to talk about it

No if someone wants to take this offer then they can. Shaming them is terf shit. Op of the post is a terf and so are many of the comments. They are looking at it with a feminist aka victim mentality, anti queer lens.

(In reference to this post.)

Are you forgetting a word or did you mean to say that a feminist lens is inherently a victim-mentality and anti-queer? Because if that is the case then you and I have nothing to say to each other, holy shit.

Assuming this was sent without ill-will, here is a longer response:

I do appreciate being told when OP is a TERF, because I'm usually on mobile and don't have Shinigami Eyes there to indicate the most egregious cases of transphobia. I also have a few hundred TERFs blocked so I don't see them in the notes of a post. However, I have now looked at the post in a logged-out browser with Shingami Eyes and I still didn't see any obvious TERFs.

Additionally, this is the bio of OP. I know crypto-TERFs are a thing and people will say they are inclusive and considerate of trans women to get people to let down their guard, but I'm going to need some proof from an Anon like you, because you don't have any goodwill built up with me to convince me to believe you without evidence.

Is the post a bit mean? Yeah, sure. But being mean isn't inherently TERF shit. More importantly, how the fuck is someone supposed to react to the call for free domestic labor from strangers? Most of the notes are being unnecessarily mean (in my opinion) about the word "neurofestive" but I don't think that's inherently TERF shit. And there is something to be said about self-infantilizing yourself in order to solicit help instead of just like, asking.

Like, holy shit my executive dysfunction skills are shit due to chronic illness. I rely on my parents for a lot. Additionally I do see calls from other people for help with tasks like dishes and getting to and from appointments. Usually in return for some more significant trade in skill than "emotional intimacy" and "couch snuggles", or in the case when they aren't offering something in return it's because they're asking people who are already close friends and family.

I agree that if someone wants to take them up on this offer they can do that. People can do what they want. And heck, maybe these people live in Somerville and not Boston, where there are in fact some legal protections for people in polyamorous relationships. That being said if one of my friends was thinking about taking them up on this long term (which asking for a "platonic third" implies) rather than just,,,, helping strangers for a day, I would caution them about being exploited.

All of feminism is not "TERF shit". The concept of domestic labor as labor, something that deserves compensation and something that people are easily exploited under, is not "TERF shit".

Idk if its all the time ive spent away from dating (pre pandemic) and having any level of intimacy but literally the thought of being pursued romantically or sexually just gives me the heebie-jeebies like why are you doing this to me why are you doing this to yourself leave me alone you wont take anything from me and i shall yield none

[dizzydispatch]

online dating as a sapphic is just perpetual: “isn’t that my ex?” and “isn’t that my ex’s other ex?” and “I didn’t realize she was out. good for her” with a healthy dose of “I’m not tryna be a birthday present for ur crusty ass boyfriend, gtfo” sprinkled in

anyway don’t forget if you know of any oblivious lesbians to wish them a happy awareness week

[indigeum]

Has anyone come to a point in their lives where everything that you want doesn't coincide with what's happening irl? Nah? Just me? Okee.

[mirayasimpinghard]

I FUCKING HATE UNICORN HUNTERS!

I got catfished. Again.

Talking with her for 3 days, things turns kinda sexual, and when I asked for a date.

She asked if it’s okay if we don’t meet “too public” (understandable, this country not really LGBTQIA friendly)

And then, she drops the bomb 💣: is it okay, if my HUSBAND joining us?

She’s kinda forgot to mention this tiny little detail…

I was little taken aback, but asked questions: do you guys having a friendly divorce? Or this is some polyamory thing?

Nope

They want a threesome. But it’s enough for the husband can watch. 🙄

No relationship. Maximum FWB.

She led me on for three fucking days.

My hopes was up, just to crash it down.

Dear Unicorn Hunters!

Respectfully go fuck yourselves. I’m not a tool for you to use to spice up your boring and failing marriage.

I’m a person.

“polyamory is inherently queer”

woah there friend youre gonna have to slow down 😬

Sore Loser (Love and Deepspace Characters x F!Reader)

Synopsis: After a very shitty day, you thought playing Kitty Cards with him will make your day better.

A/N: Girl, I hate this damn game. Lmaoooooo!

🗡️ Xavier 🗡️

Xavier didn't mean anything from it. He was just playing by the rules of the game, using his advance cards to parry and block your attempt to stop him from freezing your turn, four times by now. He was so focused on the game that he did not notice how your face became harder, and your eyes stared coldly at the board, now filled mostly with Xavier’s number cards. His kitties were cheering for him, and you watched helplessly as your kitties cried from defeat.

“That was a good game.” Xavier smiled to himself, as he saw how the game ended beautifully for him. He saved up as many good advance cards and used them at the right moment. He was so proud of himself and he can't wait to see your face. You usually analyze how he won, and take notes of what you did wrong. However, when he looked up, his joyous face turned down, and his heartbeat quickened when he saw how cold and mad you were. Your anger wasn't directed at him, instead, you were staring at the board coldly. But he knew at that time, he fucked up.

“I’m tired of this stupid game.” The chair scraped the floor, as you stood up so fast and grabbed your coat, placed atop the top rail.

“Hey wait!” He tried to stop you from walking out but he accidentally bumped into the board, almost toppling the cups and kitties over. In panic, he tried to support the wobbling table, and sighed with relief when it stopped shaking. He tried to find you afterwards, but he lost sight of you.

It has been two days, and as his partner hunter, it shouldn't be impossible for you to meet, but you must have been so mad because whenever he asks of you, you decline his calls and only reply in messages as promptly and professionally as an HR. He tried looking for you on your table, but most of the time, you were out or doing something else, whenever he came over. He was about to give up apologizing and accept his fate that he pissed you off at a game, so bad, you decided to cut him off, when Jenna ordered all the alpha team to meet at the unicorns headquarters for a debrief.

And he was right, you were there, but you were sitting in between two hunters he knew nothing about. He wasn't listening at all, he can always check on the information later, but he was afraid that if you manage to sneak out again this time, your relationship will fall apart and he doesn't like the sound of it, even when it wasn't going to happen because he will make sure of it.

“Let’s talk.” Before you can even stand up from where you were sitting, Xavier immediately moves over in front of you, calling your attention in front of the other hunters, making you unable to turn him down.

“Sorry. I should have known you were playing to enjoy that day. I didn't mean to make you mad. I will make sure to be more sensitive in the future about your needs. I know I can be slow at times, sometimes emotionless, but I don't want to repeat the same mistake and lose your company over a silly game.” Xavier started right after the door closed, leaving the two of you alone together. He looks tired. There were visible dark bags right under his eyes. He must have been torturing himself after you gave him the cold shoulder.

You feel silly now. You were not mad at Xavier for winning. It was just a shitty day and you were just looking forward to having a good day and resting with Xavier at your side, when it seems like even the Kitty Cards were against you. Xavier keeps on getting good cards, and you keep getting the most useless advance and number cards. You sighed and closed your eyes. You shouldn't have run away from him. Now, you made it worse and made him feel like he should tiptoe around your mood, instead of enjoying each other's company in your free time.

“Please, don't. It wasn't like that. I was just annoyed about my day at that time and losing was the final straw for me. I’m sorry that I made you feel like that for days. But I wasn't sure how to confront you, especially when I was just acting like a sore loser. Have you not been sleeping well? You have a bag under your eyes.” Worried, you cupped his cheek and moved his face closer to yours, inspecting and noticing how his face looks paler, dry, and tired.

Instead of saying anything, he hums at your touch, and he moves forward, resting his head on your lap.

“Let me take a little sleep. I miss you.” He said before dozing off, and you stroked his hair while he slept.

❄️ Zayne ❄️

Zayne is bad at playing the Kitty Cards game. Due to his fatigue, sometimes he mistook some colors as the same, making his turn score nothing. But today was a bit different. Zayne keeps on winning, and he keeps on using advanced cards that will be fatal on your turn. He steals your advance cards, takes away your good number cards, and freezes your turn. Meanwhile, you keep on getting advanced cards that mean nothing when you have no good cards at hand.

“I win again, huh.” It was obvious that Zayne didn't mean anything from that, other than him wondering why he won again. But maybe you're already at your limit and hearing that made you snap.

“Well good for you. I’m going home.” It was all you have told him before you left him dumbfounded on his seat, leaving him alone at the cafe.

Whatever you did back there was just embarrassing. It was just a game but you took it personally. You're not going to wonder if Zayne refuses to talk to you now, other than being your physician, after that embarrassing display of attitude when you lose. You're not even sure how you're going to talk to him today.

It's your physical exam and it's been two days since you always kept him on read or only replies with emoji. You have to toughen up and apologize. Zayne did not deserve being treated that way.

Upon opening the door to his office, you breathed in, swallowing all the courage you needed. You walked towards the chair and sat in front of him. He was busy typing whatever on his computer, but you know, he already glimpsed on your way, because you felt his heavy stare for a second, before it went back to his task at hand. It didn't take long when he finished and stared you down. It was so awkward and it was at this moment, where you wished to be swallowed down by the earth and be gone. You gulped and opened your mouth to apologize when he started talking first.

“You didn't tell me you were injured that day.” You shivered at the icy tone in his voice. Just like his evol, Zayne can also be cold and scary. He didn't even need for you to emphasize on what he just said, because you already knew what he was talking about. A wanderer caught you off guard hours before meeting Zayne and it scratched your arm. The wound is not that deep, and you already put first aid on it so you never thought about it much, until the small wound did not heal as fast, and almost gave you a fever when it deepens. You realize now that it was the guilt of keeping you're injured to Zayne, and also, being a sore loser from the pain.

“It was very small. I don't want to bother you on your day off so….I kept it.” You squeak, when he glared at you, for being nonchalant about it.

“I don't care if it was my day off. It was my duty to take care of you. I hate it when you lie to me about being fine, when you know too well I can help you.” He continued scolding you, as he inspected the scarring wound, and offensively stared at it.

“I’m really sorry.” Was your only answer, to both, hiding your wound from him and to him receiving the burnt of your pain.

“Also, you can always ask me to switch our cards. I don't mind.” Zayne added as he patched you up.

🧜🏻‍♂️ Rafayel 🧜🏻‍♂️

Rafayel is the ultimate king of petty.

You already know that right from the start but nothing prepares you for the way he massacres you from the game Kitty Cards.

During at the last hurrah of your showdown, Rafayel finally revealed his advance cards, he uses freeze to stop you from playing, uses advance cards that will turn your cup scores into one, kicking out your highest score kitties from the colored cups, and replacing it with his, stealing your deny cards, and using it against you. It was so bad, that on the inside, you felt your blood boil on how cruel it was. If he did it the first time, you would be proud of him, but he’s been winning all the rounds, and every time, it ends up with him brutally winning. His wins hit a nerve and you finally snapped.

“Ha! Please don't cry. Losing isn't that bad.” He said proudly, as Rafayel nodded to himself. He loves teasing you and he enjoys your banter together. He knows at this point, teasing each other is a form of bonding.

He was celebrating his win when he noticed how quiet you were. When he opened his eyes, the smug look on his face dropped and he stopped in his tracks. The look on your face was devastating and he never saw that before. Your scrunched up face, eyes filled with upcoming tears. When both of your eyes met, there seemed like a switch in you, that made you burst into tears. Rafayel, who doesn't know how to handle your outburst, tries his best to console you. But he did not expect that you were still mad at him, so when he tried to hug you, you pushed him away and ran.

Since then, you have refused to reply to his texts. You even muted his calls so you won't have to answer it. Whatever you did that day was so embarrassing that you’d rather sever whatever relationship you have with Rafayel instead of relieving how sore loser you were. It was just a game, and you cried like a baby from it. There were times that you're trying to justify your tears by saying maybe Rafayel’s insults were too much that day, and it was the reason why you burst into tears, but there would be nothing so petty as pushing someone away and running due to losing from a board game.

Sighing, you just accepted that Rafayel will probably stop talking to you. It is what it is as you continue to go on with your day, when your phone blares and a notification about Rafayel being in danger popped up in bold letters. You did not hesitate as you rode your bike and flew to Rafayel’s whereabouts.

You burst through his studio door, and your eyes caught his figure slumped on the floor, leaning to his couch.

“What happened? Are you okay? Did you slip on your paint brushes again?” You asked worriedly, as you touched his shoulder, arms and legs, to see if he injured himself again. You were so worried and kept asking many questions that were meant silently, you were about to unleash the hulk at him for not answering, when you stopped on your tracks when you noticed the frown on his forehead and his glare.

“Really? Do I have to injure myself so you can notice me?” He bit down and you whimpered, not from his anger but from guilt.

“Sorry.” You apologized. You look down and twiddle your thumbs, not knowing how to dissipate the awkwardness of the situation and Rafayel’s glare.

It took a moment before you hear Rafayel’s sigh in defeat and open his mouth to talk again.

“You could have just asked me, and I will allow you to cheat by putting my kitties in different cups, or even by replacing my advance cards. All you have to do is say please.” He continued, exasperated.

All you can do is look down in shame and murmur an apology for acting so childish.

“Just….. don’t ignore me again like that, please. It doesn't feel good when the most important person in your life suddenly stops talking to you.” He added, his voice quivered a bit and you wince when you realize how your action affected him. Opening up his old wounds.

“I’m really sorry, Rafayel. I promise to be better next time.” A silence falls between you again. It took a moment before you realize despite how mad he was, he refuses to move his left hand. The air of guilt slowly turned into worry again.

“Did you injure your left hand?” You asked worriedly and slowly touched his left hand when he flinched and gritted his teeth from the pain.

“Probably sprain it when I fell.”

“You fell!?”

“It's fine, Ms. Bodyguard. I bet it will heal tomorrow. Just feed me for now.” He chuckled at your worried face and you watched him move his left hand with no worry, following your reaction from it. You just shake your head at how silly that was, and was so happy he was okay, before you stood up, helped him up, and treated him like a prince just for today.
