Nathaniel Keaton Delmore was born into the Delmore empire, a leading chemical company in the United States. Being part of the one-percent had a singular perk: never having to worry about money. Nate learned pretty quickly that this was where its benefits stopped. He was the second of the Delmore children, and his mother never let him forget it. While she had reluctantly taken time off to care for his older sister, Samantha Marion Delmore, they waited until she was eight before they had him and more often than not they left Sammy to take care of him as if he was part living doll and part puppy. Developmentally it delayed him in walking because he was either carried or strolled around. It had also resulted in a stammer that was made worse by his parents' frustrations in his inability to articulate words correctly. Though he would overcome those issues with no little to no trace it left him with anxiety and a fragile sense of self.

He learned that if he kept good grades and kept his head down there wasn’t really anything his parents wouldn’t let him try. Anything he showed a natural talent for they supported until he was no longer the best in show, once again treating him more like a pet than a person. Be it piano, singing, basketball, horseback riding, or fencing; Nathaniel found himself having to find his own way. In high school, when his interests turned to debate and forensics teams because of a friend, his parents tried to put their foot down. Despite the lack of a stammer, they told him he’d be no good at it, seeing their quiet son as damaged once more. It was with his uncle’s support that he managed to make excuses and even attend summer camps. Public speaking became a way for him to face his anxiety and, with practice, he became unbelievably good at it.

With no support for college unless he legally agreed to major in microeconomics, Nathaniel finally left home to experience a slice of the real world. MIT was practically an entirely new planet for him and, despite being low key, there was really no surprise that people figured out who he was with the last name of a major American business. Just when he thought he was settling into a routine after a few years at MIT with a bartending job (much to his parents’ dismay), a co-captain position on the forensics team, and a close group of friends, he was kidnapped, tortured, and held for ransom.

After his rescue, Nathaniel would find the hardest part of the ordeal being the realization that no one knew he was missing for weeks. His job thought the rich kid had quit, though he never flaunted his money other than picking up the tabs shitty people cut out on. His friends thought he was sleeping with ‘that one girl’ that kept flirting with him at every party, though he swore there wasn’t anything there- just lending an ear to a heartbroken friend. His professors’ T.A.s were too overwhelmed to note his absences in the large classes. Then the forensics team thought his parents had finally pulled the plug on his participation because he’d divulged that they never really supported it when they didn’t attend any of the big competitions.

Through physical therapy his body healed from the torture, even though the scars remain. Concerned that therapy would look bad for the family they decided to allow him a service dog that was discretely trained and, after a hefty donation to the university and NDA paperwork, Sirius was allowed to follow him into his classes and any place around campus. Trying his best, the rest of his college experience was very much left in recluse. He took to reading and running to clear his head and avoid the reality that upon graduation he would be stepping into the CFO position of Delmore, Inc. Life seemed to be filled with dread outside of the travel the job would entail.

Managing to coerce his parents into agreeing to a masters, he delayed the inevitable a bit longer. Now, a decade later, he was settled into the monotony of corporate life and after Sirius passed and he took on a new service dog with the refusal to hide that part of his life any longer. It wasn’t lost on him that Samantha’s pep talk to do so likely stemmed from her own desire to climb the corporate ladder. The result was the same, his parents used him as the mouthpiece for the company’s charity work. They called the dog Cosimo, he called him Cosmo. They called him a survivor, he held his tongue that they’d treated him just as poorly. 

Through it all, Nate remained dutiful, loyal, reserved; if not a bit more inclined to speak out against injustices than the average person. However, with his parents' continued puppeting of his life, Nathaniel began to see even the smallest work trips or public conversations with friends photographed in tabloids. Though they were reluctant, they let Nate take a step back, doing what he could for the company virtually or with quarterly business trips. He’s altogether disappeared from his city life, instead training as a ranger for a national park and putting himself first for the first time in his life. The introvert can only hope that there will be some peace in his move to Colorado.

[what-once-was-eemaartz]

I remember once that you have Talon OCs. Can you maybe tell me all about them (names, backstory, abilities, teams that are affiliated with, hobbies, some quirky things about them,etc)?

Just curious

No one:

Me when I get an ask: *absolutely buck wild*

Also it’s about the idiots (affectionate) so even better!!!

Our main is one utter fool by the name of Chase Nathaniel Whitney. (Nathaniel to honor my partner’s favorite canon Talon) Here he is:

He (like all Talons) was taken from the circus by the Court as a kid. He was eight when he was taken. He passed his trials at eighteen, but ended up dying after the fight with his mentor, and so was brought back using the electrum then.

He’s the youngest of my OCs, at 28 as of the start of the story. (The story spans a long period, so the ages change throughout)

He’s rather impulsive, but the Court liked him for his acrobatic tendencies as a kid, and he somehow managed not to piss them off too severely before the story really kicked off.

He’s an aerialist, specifically the silks. He usually ties his hair back to keep it out of his way, but since this drawing was a ref I left it down to show the length. He gets cold really easily (which is something I headcanon for all talons- they don’t like the cold because it reminds them of the freezing chambers too much)

He’s an anxious wreck most of the time, and tends towards depression. (Spending twenty years of your life as a glorified slave to an evil organization will do that)

He’s pan, but doesn’t understand the concept of sexualities at the start of the story, because he was eight when he got taken. He just assumes everyone is looking at every hot person’s ass regardless of gender.

He is the exact opposite of well adjusted.

Next up! Love interest. His name is Matthias Lynn Carter.

He had a SHIT childhood- grew up in an abusive, Catholic household and ran away to the circus when he was ten. He lived at the circus with a group of friends (notably including John and Mary Grayson, tho they weren’t married at that point.) That’s not super relevant to the story because they’re dead and nothing ever comes of it, I just thought it was a fun little detail.

He did contortion and sleight of hand while he was with the circus, and the Court took him when he was fifteen. Took is rather a strong word, though, as he went willingly (you could even say enthusiastically) because the Court gave him a false promise of “being a hero” and “helping people.”

His exact age is kinda iffy, especially since he’s been frozen a good portion of the time, but he’s about forty-four at the start of the story. He died as a Talon when he was twenty-five, from falling off the top of a building. It should have killed him, and if it weren’t for the Court killing him as soon as they found him and bringing him back with the electrum, he would be mostly- if not completely- paralyzed from the waist down because of it.

As a Talon the Court mostly had him doing things that required more subtlety and less “scary guy in assassin costume,” such as escorting Court members to events and acting as a guard for them. He’s good at blending in, and the fact that he’s darker skinned than most Talons (by nature of having been darker skinned in the first place) makes the telltale black veins much subtler and easier to cover with makeup.

He was also a very good Talon for tracking targets over a longer term, because he was good at tracking, and blending in allowed him to do that more easily.

He has ADHD, as well as some tendencies towards anxiety, though not nearly as bad as Chase.

He’s creative, and he especially enjoys music. He plays the guitar and sings. He’s also a hopeless flirt, and he’s a little cocky, especially at the start of the story.

Impressively, he is actually pretty well adjusted.

Last, but certainly not the least of the protagonists, is Elijah Alexander Cross. His role is well summed up as “Dad man” despite the fact that he is nobody’s actual dad.

(He gets a full illustration because I always forget to draw the veins, but I actually added them here, vs the others where I literally had to edit the refs while making this post) (also I’m pretty sure the sweater he’s wearing in this drawing and the one in Chase’s ref are the same. Chase is a clothes thief)

Honestly I could make like a three part series of posts about his backstory, but we’ll keep to brief for the sake of this. You are always welcome to send more specific asks, as these characters are my love and my obsession and I will talk my heart out about them if only given the opportunity.

Elijah’s 150 years old, give or take. He was taken by the Court at 10. His father was a strongman in the circus. He’s religious, but not the “use it to justify bigotry” variety. Unspecified, but it’s Christian of some sort. Based on his family’s values as I’ve written them, they might actually be Quaker.

He was raised to be a pacifist, and did not cope well with having to kill for the Court. He spent most of his twenties, all of his thirties, and his forties until he died as an alcoholic, because he drank to cope. After he died he was forced into sobriety, because the electrum made him unable to get drunk at all anymore.

He mentored four kids for the Court. One was while he was a drunk and one was in the forties. Those two both survived and later passed their trials. The third kid (Justin) was one he was very close with, but he accidentally killed him during his trials, when Justin had to fight him. The fourth kid is the one he’s mentoring at the start of the actual story.

He likes to read and cook and garden, and he’s a complete and utter nerd.

He’s got a lot of depression and guilt to work through, and he’s autistic.

His parents were Irish immigrants, so he was raised speaking both Irish and English.

As a thank you for reading that long post have some art. The guy Elijah’s almost kissing and is in bed with is not Chase, it’s Chase’s dad, Cody. Feel free to send more asks about these fools, I love to talk about them.

AFTG fic recs

Hi all! I just wanted to share some of my all-time favorite fanfics for aftg, for no real reason other than I want more people to read them and send their love to the authors :) 

Under a readmore because it got. A little long. But please enjoy!

WIPs

Dangerous Habits by LovelyLittleGrim ( @lovelylittlegrim )

Andrew has run into problems while on undercover jobs before. None of those problems were anything like the troublesome runaway that is one Nathaniel Wesninski

Aka: the fic where Andrew is undercover as a hitman for hire and Neil is the guy who hires him. Things get complicated from there.

Undercover Andrew? BAMF Neil? Hitman AU?? Absolutely. I’m in love. The story is just *chef kisses*

Chapters: 8/9

Rating: Mature

Warnings: Graphic depictions of violence, past rape/non-con, Drake Spear (who is his own warning), Butcher Neil, 

--

Negotiations by elesary ( @elesary )

This is what Andrew Minyard knows: his brother is dead, killed by a petty Raven prince who has never learned to keep his hands off of Andrew's things. His brother's daughters are his responsibility, a job that is made infinitely harder when their shitty grandparents want custody. Nathaniel Wesninski is a liar, but he might be the only way to avenge Aaron and protect his nieces. All Andrew has to do is watch Nathaniels - Neil's- back as he carves out his own life and identity from everyone who thinks they own him.

Andrew has always been good at upholding his end of the bargain, has he finally found someone willing to uphold theirs?

This fic has got me fucked up, honestly. I’m emotional over it. It’s fantastic.

Chapters: 11/?

Rating: Explicit

Warnings: Graphic depictions of violence, attempted sexual assault, Butcher Neil,

the upper hand by plantelty ( @plantelty  )

Shortly after losing his mother, Neil arrives in the small town of Palmetto, South Carolina, alone in the world and with an impossible plan to carry through.

At the age of eighteen, Andrew ends up helping a boy stage his own death.

-

Just two fucked up boys learning to trust each other during the course of a summer, but also: multiple references to songs, twinyard angst (Nicky tries his best), The Plotting of Neil Josten's Gruesome Demise, and shit hitting the fan in a variety of ugly ways!

The cliffhanger has got me on the edge of my seat, but it is 100% worth the read and the wait for the last chapter!! 

Chapters: 10/11

Rating: Mature

Warnings: Canon typical violence, 

--

The Butcher’s House by Fire_Bear ( @fire-bear )

Andrew thought something was odd with the house the Foxes had to move into after their Athletes' House had been burnt down. He just wasn't prepared for what was actually wrong with it.

For this was a house full of monsters.

Ghost story! Ghost story! Ghost story! I literally think about this fic every other day, it’s fantastic. 

Chapters: 6/?

Rating: Teen and Up Audiences

Warnings: character death (major or minor is unclear), injuries, 

--

Promise of an Unbroken Boy by elesary ( @elesary​ )

Neil is caught by the police with Mary's burning body and is sent to juvie in Oakland where he is assigned to share a cell with one Andrew Doe, who promises him Exy, if only Neil will tell him all of his secrets. With no access to tinted contacts and hair dye, he agrees, it's only a matter of time until he's killed after all. What does he have to lose?

But Andrew's found someone who knows what a promise means, and he'll be damned if he lets that go without a fight.

Ngl this is definitely in my very top favorites -- I LOVE the idea of Neil and Andrew meeting pre-series, and this fic just BLEW my expectations for that plotline out of the waters

Chapters: 14/?

Rating: Explicit

Warnings: Graphic depictions of violence, Underage, attempted rape/non-con, canon-typical violence,

The Nameless Monster by kanekicure ( @kanekicure )

Nathaniel Wesninski wants nothing more than to see his father dead and buried. But when his father promises him the title of The Butcher, Nathaniel quickly realizes that his destiny of following in his father's footsteps is closer than ever before.

So of course, when he gets forced to go undercover for the Baltimore police, he starts seeing what living could truly be.

-

Andrew Minyard is a newly recruited police officer for the worst precinct in Baltimore, who is dedicated on hunting down the notorious Butcher and his unnamed underling. But when Neil Josten is thrown into his midst as his civilian consultant; he starts to realize some things don't quite appear as they seem.

I love the story telling -- the secret identities, the plotting, everything.

Chapters: 14/14

Rating: Mature

Warnings: Graphic depictions of violence, Butcher Neil, implied/referenced rape/non-con, implied/referenced child abuse, implied/referenced slef-harm (I believe there is a scene that is somewhat detailed on this subject), some characters also get drugged at one point, 

-- 

that’s just something people say by nanatsuyu ( @theoctopusnods )

Neil makes the mistake of stealing the wrong car. Andrew makes the mistake of offering a ride to a liar. They both make the mistake of turning the whole affair into a road trip ‘home.’

Gonna be honest; the summary does not give a big idea as to what is in store and i am SO GLAD I gave this one a try so i’m telling you that you will be too

Chapters: 24/24

Rating: Teen and Up Audiences

Warnings: implied/referenced child abuse, panic attacks (somewhat grahic descriptions of)

--

The Story After You by kanekicure ( @kanekicure )

Andrew Minyard does not understand how Riko Moriyama landed Neil Wesninski.

How the snot-nosed, small dick, rich brat, second son of the Moriyama family who also just so happened to own the largest EXY gear and merchandiser company in the world “RAVEN” - had landed smart mouthed, quick witted, stupidly blue eyed Wesninski, was beyond him. Well, unless Wesninski was a gold digger, but Andrew doubted it.

-

Or; how Andrew Minyard says he doesn't get into messy situations, until he meets Neil and suddenly he is in the most messiest possible situation ever imagined in his life - oh and also, he might be becoming a homewrecker.

Ok I am behind bc I haven’t read the final chapter of this but!! I love the story, it’s very emotional and moving, and I love the characterization in it.

Chapters: 10/10

Rating: Mature

Warnings: Abusive Riko/Neil, abusive relationship, implied/referenced rape/non-con, implied/reference child abuse, implied/referenced self-harm, graphic depictions of violence, some descriptions of injuries/scarring,

This Complicated Life by 5a5b5p5 ( @andrewsbutterflyknife )

“This is exactly why I don’t want you and Andrew to meet,” Aaron says grumpily. “You two would get along far too well.”

Neil grins. “I just like pissing you off,” he says, “It’s not my fault your brother does such a good job at it.”

—

Neil doesn’t expect much from his Sophomore year of college, but when he becomes a waiter at the Palmetto Bistro, his life gets a whole lot more interesting. As it turns out, maintaining friendships new and old as well as navigating an interesting relationship with the head chef of the restaurant—who just so happens to be his best friend’s twin brother—is a lot more complicated than he’d thought it would be.

A much more light-hearted fic than most of the others! Includes a secret relationship, and also chef Andrew >>

Chapters: 10/10

When I Fade, Keep Me in Your Memory by demesh 

Neil Josten has a secret: he can flicker out of existence.

He can vanish with the turn of a thought; click his fingers, and suddenly he’s not there anymore. Invisible and untouchable, he becomes a living ghost.

Having promised his mother never to let his ability go, Neil teeters the line between faded and real, a person and an echo. He can’t risk getting hurt.

But then, one day, someone sees him when they shouldn’t be able to.

 A (flower-shop) AU about how a faded and lonely Neil finds it in him to become someone real.

Another fic that I need to catch up on ;; but anyway it’s amazing and I love Neil’s ability in it, it’s so well explained and well-written about

Chapters: 12/12

Rating: Teen and Up Audiences

Warnings: mentions of past abuse, panic attacks

12 Ways to Woo a Minyard by NikNak22 ( @knickknacksandallthat )

Neil is a math nerd who, by a stroke of dumb luck, falls into a group of friends that are the closest thing to family he’s ever had. So, when he tells them about his new mysterious crush, he shouldn’t be surprised how immediately they come up with a plan to help win them over. One they insist that if Neil follows it, he’ll have them falling for him in no time. But things don’t always go to plan – or do they?

Nicky wants to set him up with someone else. Matt and Jeremy are confused but supportive. Allison and Seth offer lewd suggestions, while Dan does her best to keep everyone in line. Jean and Renee know something, Aaron doesn’t really care, and Kevin just wants Neil to join the lacrosse team.

But one thing’s for certain – whether Neil’s successful or not, everyone’s got money riding on this.

The romance-trope-filled fanfic of my dreams. Sometimes you just need a fic of pure joy -- this is that fic.

finders keepers by moonix ( @annawrites ​ )

Andrew meets Nathaniel through a scavenger hunt app. As their team takes part in a hunt that sends each of them to creepy, abandoned places alone to solve clues and gain points, Andrew and Nathaniel begin a little treasure hunt of their own. The anonymity of getting to know each other in small increments, never meeting face-to-face, allows them a level of intimacy neither are used to. Meanwhile Renee’s friend Neil is acting weird whenever Andrew shows up…

This was one of the first fics I read for aftg!! And BOY what a great start!! All of the little pieces and parts that work together, and just the scavenger hunt itself is fantastic! (I also REALLY wanna know if there is an app like this out there because I would be down to do that)

Chapters: 8/8

Rating: Mature

Warnings: (these all come from the author:) “mentions of historical abuse in a mental asylum, mentions of suicide, mentions of murder and kidnapping, morbid facts, creepy abandoned places including a haunted house at a theme park with disturbing rooms, special appearance of a creepy clown doll, fatphobia and some introspection on body image/complicated relationship with food, mention of self harm scars”

Scared to Live (But I’m Scared to Die) by Major_816 ( @major816 )

Neil Josten goes to the Nest for Andrew, but he stays for a lot more.

~

"I'm sorry Coach," he muttered.

"For what kid?" Wymack shifted. "You've got to give me something to work with here."

Wymack watched the thin traces of sorrow as paper exchanged hands and he was looking down at a contract with the Edgar Allan Raven's.

"I signed them Coach, I'm sorry."

~

The one where Neil doesn't come back from Winter Break.

It is VERY dark, and is one of very few fics that I have actually been almost unable to read one of the scenes, so DEFINITELY pay attention to the warnings -- both these, and the ones provided for each individual chapter. I did go through the fic to collect as many warnings as I could find in the chapter warnings, but be sure to take care of yourself.

Chapters: 36/36

Rating: Explicit

Warnings: rape/non-con elements, implied/referenced rape/non-con, discussions of rape/non-con, canon-typical violence, graphic descritions, physical abuse, panic attacks, descriptions of injuries (often graphic), psychological warfare, dissociating, psychological torture, physical torture, use of knives, alcoholism/alcohol abuse, pain-induced delirium, rape/non-con, emotional self-separation, suicidal ideation/thoughts of suicide, emotional distress (which sums up the whole fic and also me while reading it), handcuffs/chains used as restraints, referenced/implied abuse towards animals, vomitting, begging, excessive use of painkillers, drowning, waterboarding, physical restraint, mutilation of an animal, mild hallucinations, non-con drugging, sleep deprivation, starvation, humiliation, the Butcher, 

Also one of the first fics I read and 100% my absolute favorite fic!!! Which is adfjhsd a little worrying, considering, but it is what it is. Anyway. This fic absolutely wrecked me, and while it is technically complete, there is a sequel in the works! So! But I am so so excited for the sequel, and I am working on rereading this. It’s amazing. 1000/10.

cue me crying over trying to imagine what laurent’s crown would look like

charls is literally the LEAST HELPFUL PERSON. you would think that since he is, i don’t know, a CLOTH MERCHANT he would describe cloth. just a little. 

but NOOO, the only things we learn about laurent’s ascension outfit from charls is

1. it is Gold. and 2. the crown is Gold.

THEORETICALLY there is also 3. his clothes are Ivory and Gold Silk. HOWEVER this one may not be true about the outfit he wears when he gets crowned bc it is 3 days later and i don’t think laurent would be wearing the same thing 3 days later. could be wrong though. i wanna see him in ivory and gold tho so i won’t complain. 

ANYWAY so everyone we see the perspective of is Shit at describing laurent’s crowns >:(

a Gold Circlet and a Gold Crown. that is all.

Alternate Miraculous holders: Ladybug!Nathaniel and Cat!Marc. Both canon age version and older version, because I thought that the design challenge would be fun.

These are references for the fic Art VS Artist. 

I tried using a tone layer on Clip Studio paint for the ladybug dots to make things easier on myself, but I think I ended up accidentally making things complicated instead. RIP me.

Send some numbers + muses!

Nathaniel (4, 11, 29, 32)

Triz (7, 27, 64)

Danny/Lieve ‐ for both or whoever wants to answer (12, 20, 41, 68)

From Ask Meme #16

Nathaniel

4. First kink tried? Spanking. It was definitely his gateway into impact plat. After the events in college, though, he's 97% dominant and likely can NOT be with someone that hits/chokes/bites him. He'd have a full blown meltdown. So, he's a giver, not a receiver... at least not until they have been together for a while and makes him comfortable enough to see some things as a possible outlet to his trauma.

11. Top 3 places to be touched? Outside of the obvious (lips, nipples, downtown bonanza) Thighs, stomach, arms

29. Where would you most like to have sex? He's got a stargazing hobby and hasn't had a thread where he's having sex camping/in the backyard. He'd be into just naked outdoor hoe hours as long as they wouldn't be seen.

32. What’s your biggest kink? Here's Nate's kink chart. I'd say his biggest is cockwarming, especially doing it to his partner when they're cuddling at home watching a movie/news, etc.:

Beatriz

7. Biggest turn on? Attractive people in kitchens. They can literally have zero skills and she's going to enjoy seeing them licking a spoon or smirking as they look over at her while they stir something. It's a make her want to strip and get eaten out on the counter/fucked on the table behavior. Add an apron and she's soaked 🤣

27. Would you have sex in public? Absolutely. She loves the beach and is their all the time- and the restaurant is on the beach. It's impossible to assume she hasn't had sex in the ocean and on the beach at night. She doesn't believe in the 'sand in the wrong places' mentality and says 'get a bigger blanket'.

64. How good are you at dirty talk? I don't think she's as bad at it as Nora, but she's definitely not good and needs coaching. Triz is a quick learner and extremely good at reading people and listening. So between some coaching and trial and error, she'll catch on very quickly. No one will be able to stop her from whispering hoe thoughts in her lover's ear after that.

Danny & Lieve

12. Ultimate fantasy? They're living it: A third partner that can give Lieve the opportunity to be submissive and Danny the opportunity to have a male partner that respects his slowness to open up and be sexual given his physical appearance.

20. Loud or quiet partners? Choosing 'loud' but to clarify they both (and all of my other muses) really just mean vocal. There isn't much all my muses agree on but vocal-in-bed partners and a love of John Keats 🤣 Some of them (not these two) would kick a screamer out of bed though.

41. How much foreplay do you like? Lieve, kissing and light touching or even dirty talk is enough for her- even just watching her partner(s) masturbating is enough to get her close. Danny's different, he needs a lot of work to be ready to have intercourse. Even if he's hard, he needs praise and patience to get over the edge. That's why he's so fragile, he needs someone that will work with him to get him there.

68. How many orgasms can you have in a day? Lieve has yet to find the limit. Danny's had five in a day with her, but that's not his norm. He has to work for one or two post-injury.

💑🎥💘 - hannelore, nate, emir, caleb, jasleen, and pembe

💑 What are my muse’s requirements for a potential partner?

Hannelore has none, she just wants to be with a non-asshole (at least in their treatment of her) that’s adventurous (both in the bedroom and in the context of wanting to travel) and can get her off mentally and literally 🤣 

Nathaniel requires his partners be submissive, patient, and love literature. He’s attached to the parental expectation that they have no connection to crime or poverty and that they be female. That doesn’t mean he’s straight, but it is what it is. Family loyalty is toxic with the Delmores.

Emirhan is a practicing Muslim and spiritual (re: the ghost thing) so he would like his partner to be at least understanding and respectful. He’s musical and wouldn’t want to be with anyone that didn’t share that love of music. Emir’s a gentle soul and a passionate lover, so he’d want someone that isn’t too freaky in the sheets.

Caleb is picky as hell. His family must approve of them as number 1. Then, in true horrible Catholic form, he’s gotta test drive the car before he buys it mostly because um... not a lot of people can handle him in bed. 👀 👀 👀 He needs someone independent and understanding that his job (and his family) is a LOT and unpredictable. He loves traveling, the beach, and plans to have a big family, I could go on for ages, so just assume: ALL the Cartwright boys have a VERY long checklist.

Jasleen does not want a partner, so there are no requirements and for anyone to change that desire they’ll need to be some kind of wonderful miracle worker. She would like me to note that she doesn’t believe in miracles.

Pembe has been in one horrible pretty much arranged engagement where she was abused and treated like an object. She just wants someone that makes her feel safe and as normal as possible as she completely loses her vision. There really aren’t expectations outside of them being kindhearted and not allergic to dogs.

🎥 Who is my muse’s celebrity crush?

Hannelore - Jack O’Connell or Charlie Hunnam, Alycia Debnam-Carey

Nathaniel - Princess Buttercup

Emirhan - Christina Ricci (has been since Casper)

Caleb - Demet Özdemir (he watches Turkish television to keep up with the language)

Jasleen - Everyone with long legs

Pembe - She thinks John Krasinski has a nice voice?

💘 What are the ways my muse says ‘I love you’ without actually saying it?

Hannelore - physical touch

Nathaniel - giving gifts and quality time

Emirhan - acts of service

Caleb - acts of service and quality time

Jasleen - “I hate you” and “You’re an idiot” are really her go to phrases 👀 

Pembe - physical touch 

Send my muses more hoe asks!

[writermuses]

4, 5, 11, 26 - nate

4. Do they have a false name? Why? Does it have any meaning?

If he ever published his writing he would do it under a pen name because he wouldn’t wanted associated with his family. His mother would be mortified. He’d probably do N. Keats because He loves John Keats and his name is Nathaniel Keaton Delmore, after all.

5. How old are they? How old do they appear?

Depends on the verse, which is why I put a range on the muse pages, but it’s always safe to assume my characters are the FC’s age. I also make their birthdays the same because I have a tired brain.

Nate’s 41, he looks his age and jokes he looks older than dirt.

11. How attractive do they think they are?

He says he’s a solid 3 after a shower, beard trim, 2 cups of coffee, and some moisturizer. 

26. List out their immediate family. With how their relationship stands (good/bad) and if you have a faceclaim you picture for them.

Father | Jonathan Crispin Delmore | FC: John Corbett | Professional Mother | Belinda Elizabeth Delmore, née Pomeroy | FC: Kristin Scott Thomas | Cordial  Older Sister | Samantha Marion Delmore | FC: Kate Winslet | Good 

[writermuses]

💦 💯 👮 🎥 💝 💘 - for Nate, Hannelore, Tadgh, Beatriz, Cara, and Sirius, please.

💦 At what age did my muse lose their virginity?

Nathaniel lost his in high school, probably junior year so 17-ish.

Hannelore lost hers at 14, the summer before high school.

Tadgh was in college. He’s picky and reclusive... probably around 19/20

Beatriz was 16, sleeping with a coworker at her first job

Cara was 25, waited until she was done with school

Sirius was 18 and probably drunk for the first time in his life

💯 What is my muse’s ideal date?

Nate loves/prefers quiet dates: picnics, candlelit dinners, movies at home

Hannelore wants new adventures, whether that’s in a bedroom or a boat trip 🤷‍♀️

Tadgh says one that doesn’t happen 🙄 Ride a horse up a mountain.

Beatriz just wants good food and better company

Cara hates surprises, loves competition; Bowling, trivia, sporting events

Sirius says ideal? Museums! Poor date 😬 

👮 Has my muse ever had sex in public?

Nate here says that’s absolutely not gentlemen behavior and absolutely has

Hannelore lists ski lift, ferris wheel, and moonlit ocean amongst her favorites

Tadgh flatly says yes

Beatriz hasn’t, but is open to trying

Cara just rolled her eyes and said, “Lawyer.”

Sirius has but, given his current job, wouldn’t likely try that again

🎥 Who is my muse’s celebrity crush?

Nate’s are Julia Roberts and Gene Kelly

Hannelore has a “healthy obsession” with Jason Momoa and Angelina Jolie

Tadgh shrugged and said “Audrey Tautou, I guess?” also mumbles Colin Firth

Beatriz wants a Justin Baldoni and Diane Guerrero sammich STAT

Cara is still crushing on Sandra Bullock and Leonardo DiCaprio

Sirius said Saoirse Ronan and then panicked about her age 🤦‍♀️ 

💝 Does my muse like Valentine’s Day?

The YES - Nathaniel, Hannelore, Cara

The NO - Tadgh

The INDIFFERENT - Beatriz, Sirius

💘 What are the ways my muse says ‘I love you’ without actually saying it?

Nate will give his partner gifts and adjust his plans to make time for them

Hannelore offers to help, finding ways to take things off their plate so they can relax

Tadgh will make them something; poetry, a beautiful porch swing, a clock

Beatriz will cook and clean for them, give them a massage

Cara takes them to do things they enjoy, even if she hates it

Sirius leaves daily affirmations on their mirror, gives a lot of forehead kisses

[writermuses]

N, A, T, E, for Nathaniel please. 😊

N - Not yet (orgasm delay? orgasm denial? do they tell their partner not to touch themselves for a certain amount of time or under certain circumstances? do they delay or deny other things like bathroom usage or food? do they need to beg first? do they like being denied / delayed?)

He’s doing it and if his partner isn’t into that then they are NOT the one for him. This is a guaranteed must-have norm for Nate... but also do NOT do it to him.

A - Alone time(how do they get off when they’re all by themselves? do they watch porn, is it all in their imagination, do they jerk off, do they use toys?)

Nate really doesn’t jack off unless it’s because a partner misses him and asks for a video or they’re doing a thing (facetime/phone sex, making his partner watch him get off without her as punishment) ... AS SUCH, there’s really no need for porn but college and teenage Nate was definitely in the depths of the big booty women vids.

T - Top or bottom (self explanatory…)

Top. Nate can not be in any submissive position. Homeboy needs to be in control because of his PTSD. He does not handle unpredictable or out of control situations with any remote grace. That’s dealbreaker shit.

E - Extra info(any other fetishes? feet? leather? role playing? blood? fantasies that they might want to experience not on this list?)

Meet Nathaniel Keaton Delmore, SoftDom™. All relationships must include: cockwarming, mirrors, orgasm play, some degree of BDSM, sex on counters, dirty talk in public, generous amounts of morning sex and sex under the stars, post-sex cuddling, vocal sex, public sex, breath play... the list is probably as long as Hannelore’s so I’ll stop but here are just absolute no-nos: feet, bodily fluids, anything that has his partner getting touched by someone else, anyone touching him that isn’t his partner. Do not call him babe/baby. Prefers ‘sir’ to ‘daddy’... He’s weird with ropes/bondage/collaring because of his past. Again, do not try to dominate him ever... even bossy and some types of brat behavior sets him off. 

[writermuses]

Preferences for Hannelore. Sex for Nate, please. ❤️

Hannelore - Preferences:

Note: She’s annoyed this is so m/f oriented 😂 

15. Sex or masturbation?

16. Spit or swallow?

17. Cut or uncut dicks? No preference

18. Rough or sensual sex?

19. Oldest person you’d sleep with? Jeff Bridges is in his early 70s so...

20. Loud or quiet partners?

21. How much foreplay do you like? Get me off once before you’re shoving anything up in there, y’know?

22. How much teasing do you like? All of it, yes please!

23. What is too big for you to take? Haven’t figured that out yet. 

24. Do you do hookups or only sleep with a partner? Hooks when single, just the one when dating someone, even if we’re not there yet it seems fucked up to just sleep around until they’re ready. If I’m interested I’m not going to sleep with other people.

25. How much kissing do you like during sex? Minimal if it’s a hook up, all of it if it’s a partner or FWB

26. What’s the most attractive part of the body? Mouth 💋

61. How loud are you in bed? Can be, with the right person

62. Do you enjoy having nipples played with? Not mine

63. Do you like/dislike cum? Meh, indifferent

64. How good are you at dirty talk? I don’t know? Okay, I guess? I’m not about to call someone a dirty little slut or my bitch ... but I mean... normal stuff is good...

65. Do you get sleepy after an orgasm? Maybe after a couple


66. Do you trim, shave or leave pubic hair untouched? Trim

67. How do you prefer partners pubic hair? Do what you want, it just need to be clean.

69. How many other people know your bra size? Everyone, seeing as how I don’t wear one...

70. What do you wear to bed? Nothing if I’m alone, boxers and sweats if there’s a guest over

71. Any funny sex stories? I had sex on a zamboni in TD Garden... 

72. What food if any would you use during sex? Not really my thing. Seems messy.

73. Would you give somebody a sex toy as a gift? Yes

74. What’s the weirdest porn you’ve ever seen? An ex showed me what she wanted me to do to her or... what she wanted to do to me? Pretty much me being treated like a meat stick involving a table with a hole. To each their own, but I don’t really like sex with no connection or communication.

75. Do you often get horny in public? Often, nah. Could be different with someone I’m in a relationship with, I guess.

76. Ever used something that isn’t made for sex in the bedroom? Handcuffs and ties, nothing like really atypical.

77. Have you ever walked in on somebody or been walked in on? Yes, not going to elaborate on that.

78. Do you have any friends you’d sleep with? Yup. Don’t really recommend doing that.
