Additional Tags: Demon AU, Monsterfucking, Oral Sex, Anal Sex, Episode Related, 2.7, Flint is very tormented, and Silver is always looking for an angle, because someone around here has to have common sense when dealing with the supernatural, Rimming, i would not say the consent is dubious exactly, but its tricky at some points, they're working through some things, Jewish John Silver, very incidentally, what if Silver's canon ideas about Flint were true: the fic
Summary:
Silver is braced for the transformation, and so he manages to maintain his composure, though when the pressure of fingers against his skull becomes the sharp flex of talons his knees go weak. Huge, bat-like wings erupt from Flint’s back, and horns sprout above his temples; by the time it's over, he has grown to at least half again his normal size. His face is still more or less his own, but his eyes are decidedly reptilian, and they watch Silver warily.
“Oh, hello,” Silver murmurs, soft and soothing, determined not to be ruled by his fear. “Aren’t you magnificent?”
Flint’s lips pull back to reveal sharp, gleaming teeth; he gives a warning growl.
“None of that now,” Silver says, holding his ground as he would with a skittish animal. “You aren’t going to frighten me away. Did you not think I knew what I was asking for?”

i'm in the middle of painting my bedroom, which is going Eh bc i want a very specific colour, but the lightbulb colour + basement darkness has made this an annoying trial and error in paint matching. however, i discovered only now in my life that plain ol' black + regular old yellow makes green.
i didn't know that??? i feel like... i shoudl've known that. was i not taught this when i was 8 or something?? it's making me feel 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️ that i didn't know? it makes such a good green too
i hate this bc i feel like it was something that—now that i'm looking at it swatched out—i'm like "duh yeah, that's obvious, you knew that." but i just spent 4 days in a paint-fume-fuelled mania mixing greens, yellows, blues, reds, coppers, whites, blacks, etc to find a Perfect Green, and she was there in 2 colours all along...

i've rewritten this twice and it's still a ramble so. lol. it is what it is.
[ cw burnout, mental health ]
i need to change SOMETHING about how i do things on here. irl shit is making my mental health go places it hasn't in years, and i feel like i need a more low-pressure way to do things here, but i also don't want to lose friends or stop talking with people. i CAN NOT go back to how i was before entering the community... but like. i barely have the ability to daydream about ren right now because the only thing buzzing around in my head is stress and panic. if on the "imagine an apple" test i'm normally at a 5 with ren, right now he's like a 2. there but like... foggy. not really doing anything. i hate it.
idk how this is gonna pan out in the long run. i might do rbs here and then more personal selfship stuff on c.ohost or something, to get away from the energy and speed of the dash on here (i haven't actually checked out the comm over there yet so idk how good of a solution this is). i've debated remaking to reduce my followers, but it'd be inconvenient to have multiple separate archives. i might have to go back to very short tags when rb-ing art.
and i DEEEFINITELY need to figure out how to get out of a perfectionist mindset for stupid things like. playlists??? playlists are supposed to be fun, but when the oushiversary and renniversary came up, the playlists weren't Perfect so they weren't Worth Posting... when one of my fav things is people who post multiple playlists for the same character bc they just keep coming up with more perfect songs. idk, i'm holding myself to some ridiculous standard. maybe posting those playlists and posting less polished art could help.
sorry, at this point i'm basically just talking myself through this lmao. but. i'm Not Doing Well Babeyyyyy, and if i keep doing what i'm doing, i'm going to stop posting altogether from burnout.
