can u make like. ur top 10 books. freak books. anything. kisses your brain

sure!! these r not gonna be ranked bc god knows i could never choose between them & also im gonna be annoying and ramble a bit about every one

death in venice by thomas mann (classic. but its so rich w metaphors and symbolism. if you do read it, i'd recommend reading "the uses of myth in death in venice" by isadore traschen afterwards, bc it does a great job explaining all the freudian allegories and mythological symbolism and u'll literally be tearing ur hair out afterwards over how brilliant thomas mann was)

the carnivorous lamb by agustín gómez-arcos (idc that i've already talked about this a gajillion times on here. its literally the best book i've ever read. i'll forever be obsessed and i wish there was literally anything that could ever hit as hard as this did. if u read it, anon (if u havent already) dont go through the carnivorous lamb tag on here bc u need to experience this without any big prior knowledge. trust me)

erotism: death and sensuality by george bataille (ik im just listing the classics atp. but how could i ever leave that one out. this ones a lot and depending on how into bataille & philosophy in general u are it could be too much. but if u havent already read this one anon, just read the introduction. trust me ure gonna loose it from that alone)

gemini by michel tournier (this one... took me ages to get through it on my first read bc of the way its written, but it was so worth it. not even gonna say much about this one - its basically like if twins by bari wood was good lmao)

incest: from a "journal of love": the unexpurgated diary of anais nin, 1932-1934 (or every anais nin diary ever in general, but this one especially. there was just no one that got it quite like she did)

indecent theology: theological perversions in sex, gender and politics by marcella althaus-reid (sorry for literally recommending theory. im pretty sure u were asking for fiction lol, but this (& althaus-reid in general) is everything to me. if u've any interest whatsoever in theology u should check this one out)

the sluts by dennis cooper (slightly controversial opinion i think? not that the book itself is controversial, just that dennis cooper is very hit and miss at times. this book tho, definite hit. its so intense and convoluted and i loved every second of it. read this before death and sensuality and u're guaranteed to think of nothing else for at least a month)

querelle of brest by jean genet ("those knock-out body fluids: blood, sperm, tears!". kind of a classic since theres also the fassbinder movie but i prefer the book tbh. its been a while since i've read it but it'll forever be in my favourites)

crash by j.g. ballard (yeah ik we've all seen crash but i need more ppl to read the book. hold on actually i need to insert one of my favourite bits from it here:

Reaching through the fractured windshields and passenger windows around me, I marked my semen on the oily instrument panels and binnacles, touching these wound areas at their most deformed points.)

ada, or ardor: a family chronicle by vladimir nabokov (one of the most beautiful books i've ever read. probably not the most helpful recommendation bc im pretty sure its a classic but i cant not mention it.)

also some bonus recommendations of books that didnt make the list bc they're either not freak books or bc i havent read them yet:

christopher and his kind by christopher isherwood (not a freak book. not even remotely. but will forever have a special place in my heart.)

the sparrow by maria doria russell (read this one anon!!! this would be on the list, but im not fully finished w it yet so i cant officially put it in my top 10 yet)

exquisite corpse by poppy z. brite (havent read that one yet but its on my list!!)

autobiography of red by anne carson (not a freak book. beautifully written, a work of art really)

as meat loves salt by maria mccann (havent read that one yet. hoping its as good as everyone says)

skagboys by irvine welsh (one thing about me is that i'll always find a way to mention the trainspotting books)

[mossyflowers]

[daycourtofficial]

do you think in the wonderful eris x night court reader universe he is jealous of anyone like OFC sexy jewel of prythian night court princess has all the high lords drooling but is there just one person that pisses him off and he always tries to snark or make jealous in return 😭 territorial baby jealous eris is so funny to me

It’s so much funnier to give love interests one specific person that they just seethe with jealousy over. In a lot of acotar fics it’s usually Helion or Tarquin (both single, both very sexy and sweet). I think it’d be really funny if it’s one specific guy. Like he’s just a guy, some guard night court!reader knew in Velaris. He’s literally just a nice guy, no problems with anyone.

But something about him just pisses Eris off to no end 😭 (like Dinkleberg in The Fairly Oddparents)

If it’s a high lord, the obvious option is Tarquin bc I feel like Eris has some hint of his mother’s affairs with Helion. Tarquin is just so nice and Eris is like “what’s this guy’s deal???” “Tarquin? He’s nice? He wants his people to be happy?” And Eris is just like “what’s he playing at?? Trying to steal my wife??”

Diluc spanking asks in your feed and your obsession over Diluc’s butt got me here. I blame the you and the other anons for this.

But imagine this. Diluc never really used to spank you before. Not even after you got intimate with him. I mean, he is a gentleman after all. He has to be respectful towards you. After all, Crepus didn’t raise no barbarian. But you, being the little gremlin that you are just cannot stop spanking and grabbing his butt every opportunity you get. At first he was mortified and flustered. Did you just do that? Like what just happened and why is he getting turned on by it? The poor man is so confused. But then the more you start doing it, the more he gets used to it and he sometimes finds it annoying. One day, you were just picking something off the floor and he is looking at you from the back. He isn’t thinking straight because all he can think about is getting even with you. Before he even realises what is happening, his hand is already in motion swinging towards your ass. He hears a loud smack, he feels the jiggle of your soft flesh on his palms. He now understands why you do it to him so often. The feeling is addictive and he sees how you just stand there frozen 🧍🏽‍♀️as if your body took a screenshot. Just as he was about to apologise, he sees your flushed face, your lips parted and the desire in your eyes and he knows…. He knows that his girl likes being spanked and who is he to deny

And that is how Diluc’s obsession with spanking and grabbing your ass started ☝️

i do take full responsibility for my actions but i am not sorry 😘❤️

HIS GIRL - that always has me swooning jdkfkfkf

aahhhh thank you so much for sharing anon! i love this heheh he is such a gentleman & totally still acts so even when you can’t keep your hands off his butt but oooo when he finally smacks yours & sees how much it affected you, that hungrier side of him comes out for sure 🫠🥵🩷

Thoughts on the creator's update 4 clockwork where she has a vigilante arc??

[creator talking abt clockwork's update]

⬇️

Ok I rambled so under the cut is my little chat

Tbh I rarely look at what creators post cuz its all old(and on deviant art which I don’t use) BUT I LOVE THIS I HAD NO IDEA SHE WAS UPDATED AT ALL I THOUGHT SHE EAS DROPPED. . I love it. not that murder is ok for the most part … but this is affirming my brain…….

my entire creepypasta au thingy or whatever kinda just redirects most of them into like, vigilantes, trying to keep peace, some aren’t even killers, some have a body count of like 2 max +++ not even slender is trying to just go around killing everyone for funsies . Jeff totally still kills for funsies tho I can’t take that from him. But now clocky… VIGILANTEEEE 💪💪

I never liked everyone being sadistic and going on killing sprees. Makes no sense for half their backstories/motivations, So tbh being able to throw clockwork into the vigilante category when actually analyzing her backstory AND IT BE CANONNNNN so real and true. It helps make it easier to separate said motivations between each character too, so they’re all just a little more complicated and I have more to think about. And I esp think my girls need more complexity cuz ppl wanna sweep them all under the “Mary sue” rug and I am TIIIIREEEEDDD of my gf clocky getting shit on for the same shit jeff is loved for 💔 also I def love the little note of her trying to get past using killing as a coping mechanism cuz ykw? I don’t think a therapist would recommend . And it would make for real good fics/comics lol

Also it’s just nice to watch people reflect on old tropes and adjust them as time goes on. I’m obv super attached and nostalgic for most things 2015 tho LOL

But like most people here I don’t really actually focus on canon details, I just run with the rough concept and design of the character for the most part (but love people who completely revamp stories and designs for fun it’s super cool). But this is smth I will be indulging in……

I hope this wasn’t too much of a pointless ramble… half of this wasn’t even about clockwork it was just me talking about my thoughts on the general fandom and characterizations LMFAOAOOA

(I’m using vigilante very loosely here, Janes the only one I’d consider an actual vigilante in my au)

[ellies-enrichment]

hi! i just wanted to say that your TLOU text posts are hilarious and i so appreciate that you love t swift. i hope you don’t mind me dropping in to say 2 things:

1. i wanted to ask what your thoughts are on 1989 (Taylor’s Version)?

2. this love (tv) and suburban legends are so tess x joel - core!

ok that’s all - have a great day!! <3

hihi ily !!

omg i have such a playlist of taylor songs i think are joel & tess coded but ive only ever dedicated to making the champagne problems video i'll have to listen into those for video ideas with them in mind (like out of the woods could be coded too but im also blorbified so anything can be a song for blorbies if i choose)

Lore, 1989 deluxe was the first taylor album i ever bought and the first album i ever bought with my own money. it has a special place in my heart. (though ranking changes and evermore remains on top, 1989 will always be My First album)

I refused to listen to songs from 1989 at all for over a MONTH leading up to the release because I wanted it to feel fresh and i didn't want the old versions to discourage my liking the new stuff (nostalgia be damned) and i wasn't disappointed but i did notice some songs sounding Different(tm) not a bad thing they're just different. I'll rank each song 1-10 for you with lil quirks if i have anything to say about them

(1/10 based on personal opinion AND production. it's a complicated math but im a professional)

welcome to new york - 6/10 - some lyrics sound like she's singing her heart out from behind a glass window & the producers are trying so hard to keep pitch the same while raising her volume which throws me off. she sings like i scream in dreams

blank space - 8/10 - ive always been a blank space girl and i'm not disappointed in the new version though i don't like the pen click.

Style - 6/10

out of the woods - 10/10

all you had to do was stay - 6/10

shake it off - 4/10

i wish you would - 6/10

Bad Blood (+kendrick version) - 5/10 - kendrick sounds fine but taylor sounds too happy. which i understand it's been years right the same anger isn't there anymore but bad blood needs that aggression

wildest dreams - 10/10 - better than the original

how you get the girl - 8/10

this love - 10/10

i know places - 10/10 i love the scream it's better than the original

clean - 9/10 the bridge sounds different but all and all the song is the same

wonderland - 7/10

you are in love - 9/10 - a personal favorite but "you are in love" cuts off "and so it goes" at the beginning of the bridge like slow down it feels rushed

new romantics - 8/10 - sounds like if someone covered a taylor swift song really well

PERSONAL OPINIONS BC NO OG TO COMPARE TO

"Slut!" - 7/10 - i guess i thought i was getting a because i liked a boy / ME! style song. if sabrina gets a remix i'll consider a higher rating - it's catchy though i'm sure it'll grow on me

Say Don't Go - 5/10 - again, it could grow on me but it's my least favorite of the vaults

Now that we don't talk - 8/10 - it's catchy i can get behind it

suburban legends - 7/10 - because idk how to spell suburban

is it over now? - 10000/10 - best song on the whole album ive rarely rightfully claimed the right song before release and this time i NAILED it Slut should've been this

@distortedkilling asked the Troupemaster:

Proceeds to run up on Anarchy, his hands taking hold of his own face as he then pulls and peels off his own skin. "Hah! Look at this!"

What is... this? Maybe it's the fact he made a very detailed version of a human's anatomy beneath the skin? Or something? Mahito doesn't elaborate, he just stares with wide eyes and an even wider grin.

The magician blinked once, twice. Eyes wide and brows high in a picture of raw wonder.

Almost as though they were being shown a simple magic trick, not another person peeling their literal face off.

"Ahah! Amazing! Wonderful! Frabjous! We should certainly make this one a part of our performance regime!" Anarchy was practically hollering, causing several other faces to pop into the main tent, natural morbid curiosity (or self-preservation instinct) nudging them to check up on whatever new madness their Master was so fixated on.

The resident Verdanian peeked around the fabric of the entryway, wine red eyes framed by furrowed brows. The gore of it all? Oh, she was certainly unbothered - it was the fact Mahito was the center of attention that irked her. A corner of painted lips quirked upwards in disgust, and she promptly vacated the premises, a neat column of her floral minions carting jars of strange tissues off to her personal laboratory.

A lanky Vodyanoi woman almost bumped into her, scurrying in the shadows to have a look herself. Neon green pupils finding Anarchy, well in their fit of extreme belly-laughter, before finally landing on the curse.

"H-huh?!" She'd surely have covered her mouth if it weren't on the opposite side of her body. Could a water elemental even sweat..? In any case, it had suddenly gotten that much harder to hold solid form, features partially dissolving as the magi-engineer stumbled hurriedly out of view, paying little heed to her surroundings. Oh, worm.

In the meantime, the avatar had finally stopped giggling enough to formulate speech.

"...Oh, oh my. I love this, can you go deeper? Can you get to the skull? Oh! Oh! If you tickle your own brain, do you feel it? Haha! ...Do you have a brain?"

They slapped one of their knees for emphasis. "No offense meant, my dear. I simply find it humorous that all the thoughts and processes of mortals are controlled by a hunk of swirly, wrinkly meat holed up within their cranium. Pop the thing and pop goes the mortal. You're less fragile than that, but I bet it would mess with their little minds even more, were you to do that."

In the distance, there was a sound of glass shattering, and a very furious, very murderous Herba - immediately followed by a high pitched, banshee screech from Xel.

All in all, a normal day for the Shadow Troupe, even with Mahito included.

Fan Fic Writer Asks: 8, 13, 19

8. What project(s) are you currently working on?

I am sporadically working on a sequel to and if I swallow anything evil. Haven't made a lot of headway so far but it's going. Also working on that fic about Sam being trapped between the veil (as a sequel to State of Grace). This one was suggested by MagnoliaTurtle in the comments ages ago and I every time I think about it, I go a little bit more insane.

There's several others as well that I type away at occasionally but really just these two.

I have that fic about Cas trapping Sam in his head a la Frank from Hunteri Heroici (to stop him hurting himself and others with his out of control psychic powers) on my mind too, but I've lost the draft and haven't brought myself to try recreating it yet.

13. How much planning do you do before writing?

Hmm, just a little, usually. I have a general idea of where I'm going and how I intend on getting there but I really find out somewhere near the 20% mark when I've got the vibe down. That's when I do the real planning. Sometimes the vibe suggests the ending to me and I have to change my original plan completely.

19. Give us a small teaser from one of your WIPs.

His world has reliably fallen apart every time Sam's been hurt, he's dropped everything, every time. Except, as it turns out, the last time. The last time, by his tenuous calculation, he'd just finished a job near Atlantic City, and things being the way they were, he'd decided he could do with a short break. The world ending, and all.

Somewhere in the back of his mind, he thinks he might have been spinning his phone on the table, Sam's contact number blurring in circles. He's not all that sure, it could have been some other day or night in some other city, some other table.
