I've kinda seen some pushback to the idea of representation in media and I don't necessarily think it's bad to point out actual rights are more important than Disney's thousandth first gay character that's fine, but I've had a LOT of people comment on my works about asexual characters and tell me what I wrote changed their life-and it's always that phrase- because they now have the language to describe what they feel. I've had people who ARENT ace or aro comment that what I wrote finally made a concept they didn't understand make sense, or that the way I explained things was interesting and enlightening and I'm kind of a mediocre writer who hasn't written anything in ages.
Like idk, if reading something from a writer who is fucking around and only somewhat talented can genuinely impact someone because they've not seen anything like them reflected back at them in life or media I don't think pushing for representation in media is as "needless" as some people seem to think and caring about that doesn't mean you don't care about more "important" (although if you think seeing people like you in media ISNT important it's because you already have that representation or are privileged enough to not care if you do, in which case maybe pipe down) stuff. Hell, I even got a Facebook message ages ago from someone who found a comment I left in an ace group about QPR's and what they meant to me and how I perceived them and the person no joke said what I wrote two years before they even found it changed their life forever because they finally knew what kind of relationship they actually wanted.
So like sure, of course there's always bigger fish to fry them diversity in media (you know, like diversity in real life lol) but I don't think it's as frivolous as some people are beginning to act like it is. At least not if you're an aspec person it's not, I STILL don't see ace characters almost ever and I'll bet my whole everything if I asked a writer of a show why they'd tell me that EVERYONE has to be in a sexual relationship and characters that aren't won't sell and are boring- I say this because in film school I had a teacher TELL ME every character needed to basically be sex obsessed and when I pointed out a GREAT MANY CHARACTERS are not revolved around sex (Supernatural stars two brothers, I pointed out) and when she asked if I had love interests I was like ??? That doesn't matter- using my aforementioned supernatural example almost all their love interests die or get mind wiped because at the end of the day that's not what the story was about. So actually I think writers who act like that teacher need like 50 reality checks, and representation in stories isn't unimportant and also support indie writers you'll probably find more funky shit there then Disney anyway lmao.
And also even the asexual characters I DO see in media don't remind me at all of myself even if I appreciate the effort, but they never feel real or genuine and their sexuality doesn't get a lot of exploration so 🤷🏻���♀️ I actually could use more media focused on characters that I can genuinely see my sexuality reflected in in a meaningful and narratively impactful way because I've got nothing.

Even despite my multitude of annoyances with Stardust Crusaders, I think my enjoyment of it would've been quadruple what it is if the entire Alessi arc didn't exist

Sorry again about the delay getting the Deadliest Mage Alive fic updated. The last couple of weeks have been busy and the next few chapters are proving a bit of a challenge to figure out, so annoyingly the 'one chapter a week' schedule has kind of gone out of the window - but I promise I'm still working on it and I hope to get something posted soon :)

he's usually insanely rough with you! it's completely normal that after spending a couple of hours (or maybe the whole night) with him, you're covered in incidents of his violent sexual attraction. hickeys and bruises all over your neck and chest, the shaping of his fingers dented into your hips, the soreness between your thighs, and the limp in your step you're trying so desperately to hide. you enjoy it. you're used to it. which is why it takes you by surprise when he tells you he has something different in mind.
"i wanna go slow this time."
how vague. that could have so many meanings and your mind is already racing to find an answer. but you understand what he means when his lips latch onto yours.
the kiss is hot, passionate, but most importantly: slow. the way he's running his fingers on the exposed skin of your thigh, how he licks into your mouth so his tongue can dance with yours. it's all so slow. it feels weird, almost wrong, because the mouth that's full of dirty and corrupting words is awfully quiet now. no harsh nicknames, no mocking tone. just his breaths mixing with yours as he lays you down on your back.
the way he's thrusting into you now is deep and once again, slow. like he's scared he'll break you. your fingers are intertwined with his beside your legs while your legs hang loosely from his waist. hooded eyes are gazing into your own and you swear you see the ghost of a genuine smile on his lips, not the sadistic smirk he usually dons when you're under him like this. your whimpers are clouding his senses as he nudges that spot with the tip of his cock. your free arm is hooking around his neck to pull him down closer and you warn him about your orgasm.
"you don't need to ask. cum whenever you feel like."
so you do. you can barely feel his lips pressing kisses along the side of your neck and face as you squeeze down on his hand. your voice is quiet, almost muffled when you call out to him after. he hums, arms tightening and drawing you closer to the warmth of his body.
slow wasn't the word to have used. of course, he enjoys seeing you cock-drunk, tears rolling down your face as he pounds into you. but this, this is another galaxy of pleasure to him. because no matter how much he tries to convince himself, deep down, he knows that what's happening to him, these feelings are because of you. he can feel it in the tips of his fingers when he touches you. in the front of his brain when he thinks about you. and in his heart when you're close to him like this. you are making this man soft.
GENSHIN IMPACT: CHILDE, scaramouche. KAEYA. alhaitham. SHIKANOIN HEIZOU
