#robert's hangups with sex

[viric-dreams]

Since the topic's been going around and getting me thinking:

Ockham enjoys the typical shows of romance, particularly those expressed physically. Heshethey does struggle though to be the only person in a relationship and the only means of physical/emotional intimacy or support for someone because of hishertheir transitory nature and personal priorities overriding romance. The Greater London Polycule is a good fit for himherthem. Emotional intimacy might be a bit more difficult because of the current identity crisis happening, but heshethey wouldn't turn down sex or any kind of physical intimacy. That's something that Ockham doesn't really have any hangups about, possibly related to living in close quarters with people most of hishertheir life and seeing it as something mundane and relatively normalised. Especially with hishertheir eclectic set of memories and experiences (many of them serpentine), Ockham finds the sexual mores of Victorian Londoners particularly inane at times. These elements also makes Ockham open to trying pretty much anything a partner may suggest, at least once.

On the other side of the spectrum is Roberts, who's actively irked by any overt signs of romance on Grand Geode, usually because that means said sequencers are distracted or shirking duties. Realistically, the negativity comes from it being something that he feels that he could never have as a consequence of both his sexuality and position (though it's not something he's self-aware enough to know, nor wants to think about). Anyone making romantic overtures at this point would be pushed away out of a mixture of him not believing that he deserves it, that said person is after some sort of advantage because of his position, and that it would be a distraction from The Work, with a healthy bit of fear of the unknown thrown in for good measure. He's built up a ridiculous amount of intricate rituals around physical contact with people that make sense only to him. Having any sort of a sex life is a nightmare when you're almost everyone's superior officer and instantly recognisable, and come with enough emotional baggage to hold every piece of sentient clothing in Polythreme, and thus regulated to quick and faceless encounters, often in foreign ports. Even then, the intricate rules persist: sex is sex, direct and perfunctory. Kissing is off limits, absolutely no lingering touches, nothing that feels too much like intimacy or involves giving up control or trusting someone. Get what you're here for and go.

Nite's lack of memory has made everything a novel option and possibility. This is not necessarily a good thing. His strong streak for showmanship and craving attention lead to some somewhat extreme behaviour. Those grand gestures that only seem to work in romance novels are exactly what appeals to his sensibilities and he's convinced that they would work in real life, and is apt to try. If boomboxes and romcoms existed in this era, he would be that guy. It clearly seems to work in the films, so absolutely worth attempting in real life. Because a lot of what he imagines romantic behaviour is comes from stories and not real life experience, he starts with the idea that this is what romance and seduction should look like. Many of these things are things he doesn't even necessarily enjoy, but he tries anyway because what does he know, maybe that's just how things are done. This does eventually modulate over time, when he gets a better sense for his own preferences, and the flair for the dramatic remains, but tempered. He is also very quick to emotionally open up and try to deepen a relationship (either romantic or otherwise), often faster than the other person is comfortable with. After a handful of negative experiences he's gotten better at this. Unlike Ockham, whose sexual tastes generally tend to be broader and has a fairly solid sense of hishertheir boundaries, Nite has the same "I'll try anything" approach, albeit it closer to an "I have to try everything to know what I like" outlook, and no moderation or sense of pacing. This has led to a handful of upsetting experiences (both for himself and any partner(s) involved) when he inevitably discovers far too late that this was not a good idea. His lack of knowledge of his own boundaries makes him dangerous to both himself and others.

Tamara's been on dates with some of her peers back in Varchas, but it was never something that intensely interested her, nor did she ever have a serious relationship. It was expected that she would eventually settle down, either with someone of her choosing from a similar class background, or through a suitable suitor introduced through her family. She did enjoy the attention that flirtation brought, but would be the first to tell you that she doesn't really know what she wants out of a partner either romantically or sexually, but of course has plenty of time to figure it out. In London, she has far more important priorities at the moment and isn't even entertaining the idea. Her initial suspicion surrounding Ockham's kindness was quickly assuaged upon realising that heshethey doesn't necessarily want anything from her at all and offering her a place to stay was simply an act of one outsider recognising another and offering a helping hand. Of course, there's plenty more regarding Ockham about which to be suspicious, but that's a different topic.

The Rubbery Barber Surgeon is in a healthy and loving butch/femme relationship with The Tentaclar Surgeoness. He enjoys filling the traditional masculine role that the Surgeoness, a huge fan of pulpy romance novels, seeks in a partner. Thus far, things have gone well for them, and they seem perfectly compatible. She might just be the one. He may have visited a particular jeweler on Flute Street a couple of times. He's slowly planning a very special date night for them in the near future.

NSFW Headcanons for Renfield 2023 Characters

Robert Montague Renfield

I saw someone else headcanon that he has a mostly Phantom of the Opera sex playlist and God, that's so true. You're absolutely right.

more submissive type stuff:

Likes:

His hair played with

Light choking

Hand feeding

(Off) Limits:

Being told in detail what his partner is about to do to him

Pain (receiving)

Blood (weird memories yo)

Drugs

Insults

more dominant type stuff:

Usually being in restraints but it depends. Occasionally he's into it.

Biting

Picking his partner up/holding them in place

Calling his partner bug or bugbug (yeah don't think about that one too much, dude)

Rebecca Quincy

Honestly he's not particular he just enjoys being in control

Cowgirl (lol. Because of the book. Do you get it? Do you get it??)

Competence kink!!!!

Wrestling and grappling with one another

Compliments: Giving compliments and Getting compliments

Will make lots of awkward jokes to relieve the tension/anxiety

Once accidentally killed the mood by making herself laugh so hard (at a funny voice impression she did) that her wine came up through her nose.

Tedward "Teddy" Lobo

Will do a line or three (or a centipede) off of like, any body part.

Look, let's be honest we all know he has a barely-repressed Mommy kink that will surface the second he loses composure, ok?

Claims to be a dom. Is absolutely not that. 100% submissive brat.

Will attempt dirty talk but will frequently stumble over his words (when he doesn't plan them out extensively ahead of time) and then backtrack trying to correct himself.

Likes to record it so he can "prove he fucks" (??? Babe, what)

"Teasingly/knowingly" asks "do you like that?" But is absolutely not actually bragging and is genuinely unironically seeking reassurance

Carol

The type of guy who thinks the stripper/prostitute/cam worker actually likes him lmao.

He'd do pretty much anything to be called a "good boy" but he has to get over himself or just be unbearably horny to admit that instead of claiming to hate it/viewing it as an "accusation"

He has had so much unfulfilling/uncomfortable sex because he tells himself that the mild panic he feels when taking control is "exhilaration". (Exhilaration is supposed to be fun, dude)

Body painting on her partner

Tantric sex

Likes to make jokes/laugh to deflect from the vulnerability

Idk man she's really hard to get a read on honestly.

Bellafrancesca Lobo

Her partners have a habit of turning up in little pieces throughout the city dumpsters once she's done with them so like...approach with caution

Attracted to power

Mark :)

Like she's dominant but she's only attracted to other doms and then they compete to see who can keep up with eachother

Pretty vanilla tbh

Has a surprising amount of hangups

Likes sexy dancing as foreplay

Gentle

Caitlyn Bergman

Running hands over each other's faces

Generally considerate

Wants a fairytale romance (or maybe a bodice-ripper fantasy)

Attracted to witty remarks/sarcasm

Honestly still figuring out what she likes after Mitch.

Likes dressing up in sexy lingerie

Kate Quincy

Ace so nope

"Wait, people actually experience sexual attraction? That wasn't a joke?"

Bob

Surprisingly gentle and tender

Like for such a tense/angry guy he basically just wants very gentle sweet intimacy

Says a lot of reassurances

Checks in a lot to make sure his partner is ok

He's very masculine and "tough" and people tend to expect him to be the one doing all the pursuing/masculine role stuff, so little sweet romantic gestures like getting him flowers or complimenting him etc go a LONG way. Just genuinely calling him pretty without irony or sarcasm makes him blush like crazy and his heart races.

Kevin

Really likes it when his partner wears perfume. Especially something floral.

Long makeout sessions

Trevanté

Takes a long time for him to trust someone enough for anything

A bit of a showoff

Will put his hand over his partner's and guide them

Very direct communication. Will say plainly what he wants/likes and ask questions upfront.

I can’t stop thinking about how stannis and robert were in KL since 283/284 when renly was around 6, and renly stayed at stormsend until he was 16/18 until he came to KL, besides the odd visit. So apart from the odd visit he had no one to properly family love and properly raise him, and his mother died when he was around 1. What difference to do you it would’ve had on renly’s personality and substance if he had a family member to have raised him for those 10/12 years? The “look at me” kid

I also got an ask about Stannis' misogyny, so I'm going to fold both of them into the same response because I do think they're related.

So, Stannis is a misogynist. That much is quite clear from what we see in canon. He's gruff with his daughter, cold and dismissive to his wife, and even when he listens to Melisandre, he's clearly resentful that he has to.

Renly is...also a misogynist, in his own way. He's carelessly dismissive of Brienne; while he's kinder to her than anyone else in the vicinity, he's also aware that she worships him and encourages that because it inures to his benefit.

Frankly, all three of them are misogynists. Robert is a serial philanderer and womanizer who views women as largely interchangeable vehicles for his own pleasure. Westerosi culture in general encourages privileged young men to think of women--especially lower-class women--this way. Stannis is clearly uncomfortable with his older brother's overt and exaggerated sexuality. Robert is the sort of person who makes everything about sex, especially if he's hanging out with just the guys. And given what we know about Stannis' other hangups--that he's not as charismatic as Robert, not as obviously martial (despite being a perfectly competent fighter), and simply not as loved--it's not surprising that he'd take a hard turn in the opposite direction and avoid women as much as possible.

We do get the impression from the ACOK prologue that Stannis wasn't always that way, and that the trauma of having to watch his parents die in a shipwreck with no way of saving them shaped his inability to form emotional connections. Other than Maester Cressen and Ser Cortnay Penrose, Stannis' next father figure would have been Robert, so he's got no way of getting any sort of positive view of women after losing his mother. Even at court, the woman he probably interacts the most with is Cersei, and she exemplifies everything he already hates.

As for Renly, he at least has Robert's charisma and ability to attract people to him, and everyone indulges him for it much the way they do Robert. I'm willing to bet that both Cressen and Penrose heave sighs of relief when Renly isn't impregnating every servant girl in Storm's End as a teenager, so much so that they don't notice that he's selfish and egotistical and thoughtless enough to claim a throne for the lulz. Stannis is the outlier, he can see this on both ends, and the resentment just builds over the years until it becomes insurmountable.

Benoît Ferreux, Ave Ninchi, Lea Massari, and Daniel Gélin in Murmur of the Heart (Louis Malle, 1971) Cast: Benoît Ferreux, Lea Massari, Daniel Gélin, Fabien Ferreux, Marc Winocourt, Ave Ninchi, Michael Lonsdale, Jacqueline Chauvaud, Corinne Kersten, Gila von Weitershausen. Screenplay: Louis Malle. Cinematography: Ricardo Aronovich. Production design: Jean-Jacques Caziot. There's a very dated play from 1953 called Tea and Sympathy by Robert Anderson that was made into an even more dated film by Vincente Minnelli in 1956 about a prep-school boy whose effeminacy makes him the target for gibes about homosexuality. To prove to the boy that he's a real man (i.e., not gay), the headmaster's wife offers herself sexually to the boy, telling him as she unbuttons her blouse and the curtain falls, "Years from now, when you speak of this, and you will, be kind." The film version, responding to Production Code strictures, adds a coda in which we learn that the boy is now married -- i.e., "cured." I thought of Tea and Sympathy as I watched Murmur of the Heart, whose very different problem -- adolescent horniness -- has a very different cure -- incest. Murmur of the Heart has always been something of a critical darling, from Pauline Kael's description of it as an "exhilarating high comedy" to Michael Sragow's essay for the Criterion Collection proclaiming that it "boasts the high spirits to match its high intelligence." And for the most part I concur: Lea Massari's joyously earthy performance as the mother is beautifully detailed, and Benoît Ferreux's endearing gawkiness brings the character of Laurent to full life. Louis Malle's script and direction keep things moving splendidly, never allowing things to bog down into "message moments" about priestly pedophilia -- years before that became the stuff of headlines -- or the parallels between the French involvement in Vietnam and that of the Americans, which was very much in the headlines when the film was made. And yet for me the ending of Murmur of the Heart seems as hollow as that of Tea and Sympathy. After having sex with his mother, the product of his attempt to console her for a breakup with her lover, he goes out to have sex with one of the girls he has met at the spa hotel where they're staying -- as if to prove that he's "straight," though in a different way from that of the Tea and Sympathy protagonist. There's an awkwardness in the setup -- the shocking taboo of incest -- for what turns into a feel-good ending gag: The whole family, including the mother, the cuckolded father, the bullying older brothers, and Laurent himself, join in uproarious laughter at the fact that Laurent has gotten laid. If what had gone before the incest scene had not been so splendidly wrought -- if, in fact, the incest scene itself hadn't been so tastefully handled -- would we really feel satisfied with this ending? For that matter, are we today really content with the film's ongoing sexism, including the scene with Laurent in the brothel and an uncommonly pretty prostitute? Would anyone ever dare to make a comedy that concluded with a girl whose quest to lose her virginity ends with her having sex with her father? Or is it that what makes Murmur of the Heart a successful film is that it raises all these questions without belaboring us with them? It's a virtual catalog of all of the social and sexual hangups that continue to make growing up such a trial. That it achieves this with, yes, "high spirits" and without preachiness may be its real virtue.

i don't mean to rile you up or anything & I'm not pro-Joseph either but you seem to blame Robert's not so redeeming qualities on Joseph but haven't Robert been like that ever since he was with Marilyn ?

Ah, no, I gotcha – and I think Joseph is responsible for Robert’s trust issues, and exacerbated his self-esteem issues (re: that he thinks the only thing he’s good for is fucking), but the rest of Robert’s “not so redeeming qualities,” as you say, have nothing to do with Joseph and everything to do with decades of undiagnosed bipolar disorder. Or rather – that Robert’s depression/substance abuse/etc didn’t originate with Joseph, but Joseph’s mindfuckery sure as shit didn’t help.

For instance, I believe that Robert’s weirdness about sex, that he thinks that’s all he’s good for, has its roots way earlier. (Indeed, my zero-evidence headcanon for his upbringing has it starting while he’s in high school.) I suspect that during his rocky marriage to Marilyn, sex was the only thing Robert felt he could do right for her, when he was so bad at everything else. Then along comes Joseph, who drives home that idea in spectacular fashion, and since then Robert’s only proceeded to make it worse with all his meaningless hookups – seeming to get continual confirmation that all people want from him is sex, sex that is completely divorced from intimacy. “Ghosts in the Attic” is almost 0% about Joseph, it’s about grindr.

(Nothing wrong with grindr, btw, so long as you have realistic expectations for it – it’s a good app when you’re horny, but a staggeringly bad idea when you’re lonely.)

It’s hard to disentangle which of Robert’s problems are Joseph’s “fault,” because the fact is that mental illnesses make people much more vulnerable to abuse, and then abuse makes mental illnesses so much worse. Robert’s been manic-depressive, prone to substance abuse, with low self esteem all along; Joseph-related PTSD is just a cherry on top.

If you want to ramble about unpacking characters and their histories/relationships/etc through smut, I would absolutely love to read it!

An anon after my own heart!

Typing while cooking dinner, so apologies in advance for any disjointedness!

So Dorothy Allison, a working-class femme lesbian who writes absolutely stunning prose, has an essay called "Sex Talk," and she talks about the ways that there seem to be different genres of sex writing that she'd conflated before parsing through her thoughts and her own style. She calls them the visual and print viewpoints, though I don't think we have to stick with that categorical distinction. But anyway, she works through the way that some sex writing (the visual) "seems to be about setting a scene, so much so that scene becomes all. It is intrinsically about providing a context--costume, texture, fetish," but it's missing the "internal dialogue of feeling and emotional response" and a "philosophical examination of the 'I' to whom everything happens, or who observes everything that happens" that she values in her writing and reading (the print).

There's plenty of value in both types of writing! But I think in a lot of my smut writing (and that of plenty of amazing authors whose work I read and follow), I see the visceral eroticism of the former working hand-in-hand with things like the character study genre. And I think part of why fic writing gets to go there more frequently than the published erotica Allison was looking at is that we've already got specific characters we're working with. No matter how much we want to push canon and its sometimes infuriating writing choices behind a tree, we as readers and writers already have someone in our mind when we come to a given piece of writing. As writers we're not having to do the groundwork of inventing someone, getting a reader invested in not just what they can do with their bodies but who they are as people, and then also getting them to sex! And that makes writing in that "print mode" Allison describes, in certain ways, a lot easier! (I think it brings its own challenges, too, but those can be for another day haha)

I often think best though examples, so right, working with characters and ships I write and/or read a lot:

Take someone like Alex Danvers on Supergirl. If we're writing in the canon universe, we know from her 2x05 coming out speech that she'd tried dating men and, because nothing felt right, she'd started to think that maybe intimacy just "wasn't for her," that "maybe [she] wasn't built that way." And suddenly we're seeing her come out as a lesbian, get a girlfriend for the first time, have a first morning after a night of intimacy that she actually enjoyed--enjoyed so much she wants to call off work to spend the whole day in bed! So when we're writing about Alex with Maggie, to stay in canon at that time in Alex's arc (or with any number of possible partners people ship her with!), we're also writing with the weight of that long history. And how a writer scripts some of these scenes, the conversations around them, the internal thoughts and feelings we might get from Alex (or from, say, Maggie, who knows about Alex's earlier relationship to sex and dating) - all that's gonna give the reader this gorgeous frame into which they'll situate this smut scene!

Or take Grace Hanson from Grace and Frankie. The show writers have shown her having a long and complicated relationship to her body--her disordered thinking around weight and food, her lifelong patterns of self-denial, her arthritis and knee problems, her career at Say Grace, the vast differences between those scenes of her stripping back the facade in the first ep with Robert and then later on with Nick. And specifically, we also get a sustained look at her changing relationship to pleasure (and the ways that brings her into a new relationship with her body as well)--the long years of a cold, fairly loveless marriage to Robert, that early S1 kiss with Byron and the unexpected pleasure in the passion of it that had been missing from her life for so long, literally everything about Vybrant and the conversations around its founding, product development, and marketing. And so many amazing femslash writers in that fandom have done such a beautiful job holding in tension where Grace has resided for so, so much of her adult life and who she's becoming in canon and who she might continue to grow into with Frankie, who also brings all of her own histories and hangups (as well as her joy and love and passion) to the bedroom!

Obviously these are just two quick examples, and I could ramble on for so long dinner will definitely burn, but I think even in a smutty one-shot or something tagged as PWP, we still end up getting more insight into the characters than we might assume at first glance! And I should clarify that this kind of work doesn't only happen or have to happen in the context of smut between two nicely coupled characters. Anytime we're thinking about a character and pleasure and/or desire, I think these details have the potential to emerge and be explored in more or less detail (author's choice there!), and I'd hate to be misread as reifying those normative relationship scripts that I think the very best (and very queer) fanfic works often get to mess with!

[jamesfalt]

also i did finally finish all the routes in dream daddy, i was considering doing the bad ends but i just can’t bring myself to be mean in games, plus it doesn’t seem like there’s a need to to 100% the game. and since the Discourse is on the mind i wanna like...talk about the shit i saw for the dads

it perplexed me that robert, a vaguely spanish or mexican man (or at least that’s how i saw him, val reminded me of my cousin so that’s mainly why i thought that), was the “bad dad.” like don’t get me wrong i loved robert but idk. the alcoholic bad dad being vaguely hispanic was kind of odd. also a nitpick but i do NOT think dan should’ve voiced him. dan’s voice isn’t gruff enough for robert.

why are you so mean in brian’s route? it’s not fun. brian’s route was my least favorite route to play because you’re just so MEAN. i get the whole competitive nature of the dadsona bc i can get like that too but DAMN you’re an ADULT. take a BREAK for ONCE. also fuck the golf game

mat is a black man and i know it’s like super common nowadays for parents to smoke pot (both of my parents do, for their own reasons. my grandparents on my mom’s side do, both of my older sibling do, etc) but like, making him the ONLY one you can blaze it with literally is kind of ??? also fuck BOTH of his minigames.

as funny as i thought the line was even tho now idr what the fuck it was (it came out of fucking nowhere and from a character like hugo that was super funny to me), in hugo’s route when he talks to his student at the wrestling thing, calling him a bitch isn’t GOOD. also his voice wasn’t bad but it was certainly a different quality from everyone else’s and that kinda put me off

and josephs’ route wasn’t even as bad as tumblr made it out to be but yeah the whole. cheating on his wife thing, staying wiht her despite everything (it’s very likely it’s because they have young children though since divorce can be tricky wiht children), and idk that weird boat sex was kinda. odd i guess? i super think they should’ve split bc they’re both super bad for each other. i still don’t mind the idea of the cult ending though, although it’s kinda pushing limits with the religious/demonic thing, it’s definitely not the first time i’ve seen it. it’s a neat concept to me

idr having any major hangups about damien and craig but what others have said (the narusasu smut, craig’s ambiguous i cna’t think of the word identity? probably not it. that stuff) are also big issues

i did like being able to have a trans dadsona and the different body types. that’s more than what most dating sims would give you. i DO wish they gave more clothing and hair options though. what’s an emo supposed to do around here to get some dark clothing

i don’t wanna critique it through the lense of it’s game grumps mainly bc from what i know, THE actual game grumps only voiced in it and the game grumps office was used to produce the game. i did NOT read the credits i might be wrong.

DOREEN GARNER

By: Kendra Jayne Patrick

An appreciation for the universality of the corporeal experience compels Doreen Garner to incorporate body parts into each of her sculptures, performances, and videos. By exploiting the aesthetic potential of our flesh, hair, sex organs, and insides, Garner viscerally tethers her audience to her explorations of the social contexts in which they exist. She uses silicone, crystals, housing insulation, anatomy books, and very much more to make humanesque objects whose grotesque complexities expose our own -- and thus our society's -- fetishes, vanities, and tendencies toward tribalism and destruction. Attracted to the rawest and least-convenient truths, Doreen Garner makes work that rattles our understandings of self.

The work rests on the way that she both approaches and handles the body-as-object. Objectification has a principal role here: in her sculptural work, it is a literal action wherein she combines craft materials into indeterminable, abject objects. 2015’s Pickled Pearl, for example, demonstrates one of Garner’s finer sculptural exercises. Suspended about three feet in the air by a plain, thin metal stand is a sac made of hand-blown glass, filled with pearls of different sizes.1 Two tubes extend from the sac: a thick, metal one that extends from the top, and a thinner, plastic one that extends from the end of the larger one. The thinner tube extends all the way down past the bottom of the sac and then back up to connect to the sac’s front. And although it is difficult to describe even the class of object to which Pickled Pearl belongs, its corporeal essence is unmistakeable. It is difficult, for example, not to associate the piece’s particular browned-yellow color with urine or bile. But, that association is directly related to the two bubblegum-pink colored baking bunts that connect the tubes to the sac, baking bunts that Garner has fashioned to resemble anuses or sphincters. Additionally, the bunt sitting on the front of the sac is surrounded by coarse, curly human hair. In turn, the thinner, plastic tube connected to it— filled with a yellowed, glittery substance— reminds of a medical IV or a catheter. All of these frame the softly-shaped sac itself, its pearl filling resembling non-specific human viscera. Thus, Pearl reveals that it is Garner’s ability to imaginatively concoct and seamlessly connect human and inanimate form that give the work it's uncanny effect.

Garner’s strategy of objectification reminds of an observation that a young Paul Thek made in 1967. Addressing the cognitively dissonant way that humans tend to understand their humanness, Thek said, “we accept our thingness intellectually, but the emotional acceptance of it can be quite a joy.” These words resound throughout Garner’s body of work, where bluntly presented corporeality provides many an opportunity to engage in this existential sort of reckoning. And although this is certainly one of Garner’s aims, it is more important that her work open space for meaningful engagement with the social and psychic experiences from which our bodies can exempt us and to which our bodies might avail us. Thus, as Paul Thek and Robert Gober illuminated human thingness to address their sexuality and mortality, as Louise Bourgeois used it to explore her own Freudian impulses, Garner also personalizes her conceptualization of thingness, using it to explore the ways that her blackness, womanness, and beauty move her throughout society.

Some of her latest work, for example, confronts slavery. More specifically, the work addresses the grisly experiments that Dr. J. Marion Sims conducted on slave women throughout the nineteenth century, and, the fact that his reputation as “the Father of Modern Gynecology” rests on a practice that is now widely-considered to be ethically disastrous. Works like Vesico Vaginal Fistula (2016) depict a debilitating birth complication on which Sims became an expert as a globular combination of brown, pink, red, yellow, and black silicone delicately suspended in a mirrored box. Layers (2016) is large, neat, cubic-shaped chunk of yellow, pink, orange and deep, dark red industrial insulation materials organized in tiers atop two rows of cinderblock. Sampled Skin Cells with Melanin I, II, and III (all 2016) are clumps of silicone, Swarovski crystals, and mica flakes shaped like mangled tissue samples and smashed between flat pieces of neon-yellow plastic.2 There are more, but the series amounts to a collection of sculptures of flesh. Sims’ victims were chosen because of their blackness and femaleness; arbitrary meanings were assigned to these attributes, and those meanings took on such social import that the women’s essential thingness was ignored. Whether viewers are descended from or entirely removed from this history, Garner’s combines of distressed, disembodied flesh unite viewers around the non-negotiableness of Sims’ victim’s corporeality; she restores their humanity with a gruesome poignance.

As we look into her performance work, we see that objectification remains an important operative. But here she offers up her thingness — her blackness, her beauty, and her womanness - as springboards for engagement with these ideas. She thus rests her performances on physical actions meant to transfer her anxieties, pressures, frustrations, and questions around these topics onto her audience. Injecting subject-hood into object-hood, then, seems a conceptual approach to conjure from the audience natural anxieties around these topics in real-time.

Consider Uniqa Revisited (2013), Garner’s most brazen performance to date. In this piece, she performs a startlingly earnest strip tease in an art gallery. As she slathers herself with whipped cream and chocolate sauce, she writhes and gyrates on her knees in a bikini so small you’re unsure if it will make it through the performance. A video compilation that includes a live birth, flowing pus and feces, a woman seductively flaunting her extreme obesity, a surgical procedure and more plays projected onto the wall behind her, while LL Cool J’s “Doin’ It” provides the score. In that four-minute span, she pummels the viewer with stereotypical black female sexuality, evokes authentic sexual arousal in the often-sterile fine art space, nods to the boldness of women who publicly expose their bodies to make a living, slyly riffs on a scene from a classic Black film, and demonstrates the significant overlap shared by disgust and desire. It is one thing to hold a panel discussion about the harms inflicted upon black women by the cultural narrative of an unslakeable sexuality, but it is quite another to mind and sort these harms while watching a titillating performance of it. It might be easy to identify with Garner’s humanity, and yet feel vastly culturally distant from her and the piece should you not have seen New Jack City, the canonical Black film containing the scene the piece references. One could assume her objective beauty immunizes her from insecurity and forget that she is the most vulnerable person in the room. The evocative performance demands strong, earnest energy from the audience, allowing Garner to see nearly as much of them as they see of her.

Ultimately, Garner’s work succeeds because it contributes in fresh, authentic, and daring ways to a number of critical cultural and art historical conversations. Her work is the offspring of those whose careers were defined by poignant explorations of abjection like Thek, Gober, Bourgeois, Kiki Smith, and Kara Walker, but it is just as closely related to sculptors who have mastered the combination of craft materials, found materials, and form like Petah Coyne and Rachel Harrison. Its dark, graphic salaciousness has its roots in works and performance by Marilyn Minter, Lynda Benglis, and Cheryl Donegan. While Garner carefully mines and minds these histories, her forms remain undeniably original, allowing her to continue these threads in meaningful ways. Further, the work's confrontational posture is intentional; she aims to carve a space where she can earnestly wrestle with her own ideas around race or gender or vanity, sometimes in incredibly personal ways3, yet still release the traumas uniquely attendant to being black, female, and American; white supremacy receives no kid-gloves-treatment here. Unafraid of what she might find in the muck of our selfishness, self-imposed barriers, and nonsensical hangups, Doreen Garner makes work that explores and challenges all senses of self.

1Garner received her MFA in Glass Blowing from the Rhode Island School of Design in 2014. 2An elegant nod to Paul Thek’s meat sculptures. 3In a video interview for BRIC and in our first interview, Garner discussed the impact that her younger sister’s stroke and disfigurement had on her conceptualization of the body and her art. Watch the interview here.

Despite knowing what to expect this time, the plane ride back from Boston had been even worse than the ride there. They hit turbulence and Seb had been a whimpering mess by the time they landed, had barely been soothed at all by the time they got back to the apartment.

Chris had held him in his arms and whispered comforts to him, kissed him sweet and slow until he settled. One thing had led to another and now here they are, sweat drying on their skin as Sebastian clings to his Master, limbs wrapped around his torso.

“I love you,” Chris mumbles against Sebastian’s skin, nuzzling his stubble against the other’s smooth cheek.

And there’s those words again. Those words Chris has said over and over, every day for months. Those words that get his heart racing, make his chest tight, light that spark in the pit of his stomach.

Those words he hasn’t said back yet. Not once.

I think the thing that makes me angry about Robert/Joseph shipping is that, regardless of what happened between them in the past, Robert is utterly unambiguous about how much he hates the fuck out of Joseph now. So putting them in a relationship means either (1) presuming that you know what Robert “really” wants, and it is somehow the exact opposite of everything he’s actually told you, or (2) that you know he wants nothing to do with Joseph, but you don’t care what he wants.

Either way, it’s gross as fuck. Please Do Not. Game over.

[abeautifulblog]

My aesthetic: Joseph striking out

So I'd mentioned before that I think Joseph has almost definitely tried his luck with every dad on the block -- he certainly doesn't seem to have learned any sort of lesson, re: shitting where you eat, from the disaster with Robert, because he wastes no time coming onto the Dadsona when you roll up in the neighborhood. But I also think that -- for a variety of reasons -- he didn't actually manage to score with anyone on the cul-de-sac but Robert. So let's talk about some of those reasons.

(Again, this is setting aside the possibility that anyone just went "Nope, you're married, that ain't right" -- which any of the dads could well have done, because they're all decent human beings, but Joseph is very good at playing like his marriage is over, therefore it's not REEEEALLY cheating, right?)

Damien -- Already talked about this one in a previous post, but in short, Joseph is all about reshaping people please him, and Damien -- trans and dedicated goth -- has spent his whole gd life dealing with that shit, with people who want him to do what makes them happy rather than what makes him happy. I think it's fair to say that Damien is the dad with the most solid sense of self in the game -- the upshot of having had to work so hard for it. Joseph's schtick isn't going to hold the slightest bit of appeal for him.

Brian -- This is the one dad where I think Joseph would nope out first. Because Brian's whole thing is one-up-man-ship, and we find out later that it's his slightly clueless way of trying to impress you, but initially it feels like he's belittling *your* accomplishments -- and hoo boy, self-loving-sociopath Joseph is not going to be about that. Joseph is the guy who interrupts your conversation with Damien to make you tell him how great his party is. The guy who takes center stage so everyone can fawn over his mad grilling skills. The guy who brags in his dad-grindr profile about being "#1 youth minister five years running" and how he crushes his kids at Candy Land. The guy who expects you to be so impressed with his yacht that you fall right into bed with him. He is going to be aggravated as fuck that Brian, instead of being appropriately overawed by Joseph’s accomplishments and ~honored~ by his interest, blithely does everything Joseph does, and does it better.

(Not to mention that most of Brian's bragging is about his kid -- and none of Joseph's is. Joseph takes no apparent pride in his children, we only ever see him being chagrined by the twins and their creepy games, and that is not something that would sit well with Brian.)

Mat -- It comes down to Rosa. That he's still mourning her, and more to the point, he's still mourning her. He's lonely, but he doesn't want just someone, anyone who can make him feel less lonely (which is I think the key difference between his grief and Robert’s), he misses Rosa, specifically. Joseph probably stepped up to comfort Mat and give him a shoulder to lean on after Rosa's death, but there's a good chance Mat didn't even notice his ulterior motives, and if he did, that Joseph wouldn't have held any appeal when all he really wants is his wife back.

Craig -- Craig's on record as being very choosy in his romantic relationships for the sake of his daughters -- I believe it's on his very first date that he says he doesn't want to bring a stranger into their lives. And yeah, some of the softball moms are off-puttingly aggressive in their come-ons (*cough* JANET), but they can't all be. Craig has to have met some single women (or men) that he gets along with and who would have been happy to be a good co-parent for his kids -- but he's turned down all comers, including the single moms who stand to offer his kids a lot more than Joseph does. Even if Joseph were legitimately single, he would have been just one more in the crowd.

Hugo -- Hugo seems like the one who would be most receptive to Joseph under other circumstances. They're both actively involved in the community; Ernest goes to Joseph's church so it's safe to assume that Hugo does too, meaning they'd be religiously compatible; Hugo is newly single and the dad who seems most interested in dating and meeting new people. But he is also very conscious of his position of authority; that he's a high school teacher who needs to set a good example for his students and his son, and I think as soon as Joseph's flirting started to cross the line past "could plausibly just be friendliness," Hugo would explicitly shut it down, and give his reasons why. Like, "Maybe this is something we could explore after you and Mary are separated, but you and I both have responsibilities that make it something I refuse to pursue now."

Incidentally: my housemate and I agree that Joseph probably fucked Hugo's ex, before or during the breakup. Hugo doesn't know about it, but it happened.

*

And then poor Robert. He never stood a chance.

Ironically, I think Joseph now regrets the affair with Robert. Not because he has any remorse over how badly he fucked Robert up, but because Robert's very instability -- the instability that made him such an easy mark in the first place -- now makes him incredibly difficult to predict and control.

Robert fell for the initial seduction, but he didn't fall for the "oh you were my one-time mistake, I regret this so much, please never tell anyone" line afterward -- he thinks Joseph is an utter shitbag now. He stands to blow Joseph's secret wide open, and he's certainly not keeping his mouth shut to spare Joseph's reputation. He's already notoriously weird, so the social pressure to "not rock the boat" isn't something that's going to keep Robert in line. He's already halfway a pariah in the community, so it's not like he has that much to lose if he decides to tank his reputation the rest of the way and drag Joseph down with him. And he's unstable enough that just because he hasn't done it yet is no guarantee that he won't do it at any moment.

(Yeah -- you should be afraid, motherfucker.)

I think Robert keeps the secret (1) because he's ashamed of his own role in it -- at having helped Joseph cheat on Mary, at having fallen for it -- and (2) because he's not certain anyone would believe him if he did tell them.

So let's talk about consent in Dream Daddy

Namely -- how crucially it features into Robert's romance. (And in contrast: how utterly absent it is from Joseph's.)

Robert is, hands down, the dad who comes on hardest and strongest -- are we gonna do this or not? -- and admittedly, if you have trouble saying no to anything, you might have wound up going along with that, even when all the meta-text is telling you not to.

But you're allowed to say no to him -- and moreover, it turns out that he is really, really good at taking a no. There is never even the slightest amount of pressure from him, subtle or unsubtle, direct or indirect. He puts on the brakes the moment you show hesitation, he waits for a solid yes or no from you, and then he respects your answer without arguing.

The moments I’m talking about specifically:

1) When you’re walking back from the bar and he propositions you on the street. 2) Or if you got as far as going upstairs with him, but then have second thoughts. 3) When he's kissing you on his couch on the third date, but you pick up on the unsubtle hints that he’s upset about something and ask him to stop.

#2 is my favorite, actually, because it would have been so easy for the devs to give him a different response. At this point, you are just some fucking rando he picked up in a bar. You went home with him, knowing full well what he was inviting you up for. And then at critical moment you suddenly get cold feet? Honestly, most grindr hookups would feel justified in being annoyed with that. But Robert just says, Do you want to stop? Not "Oh come on," not "What's the matter?" You are a rando from a bar, whom he knows nothing about, who is currently ten feet away from his bed, but he stops in a fucking heartbeat when you ask him to wait, because your consent is more important than his hard-on. He doesn’t even make you feel guilty or awkward for noping out of it. (Dadsona: "I'm sorry..." Robert: "Nah. It's cool.")

And that, actually, is a large factor in why I interpret the Robert-Joseph thing as having been -- perhaps not outright rape -- but definitely pushing the boundaries of what is consensual and what is not. That it was a relationship that ran roughshod over Robert's consent, boundaries, and comfort zones.

Because in my experience, the people who are that scrupulously, painfully careful of consent are the people who know firsthand what it is to have your consent ignored.

[abeautifulblog]

The other day I was reading a book called Bar Flower, a memoir of an American woman working at a hostess club in Japan, and there was one part that stuck with me. At one point the narrator has a rivalry of sorts going on with this Russian woman working at the club, and is getting very frustrated because even though it's supposed to be a no-touch establishment, this other woman is extremely handsy with the clients (which of course they quite like) and it's hard to compete with that. But then when she's complaining about it to another coworker, the coworker is like, "You know why she hates you, right?"

Narrator: NO??

Coworker: "... Okay so you realize that they treat the Russian girls different from the American girls, right? They don't respect the no-touching rule. They think they can get away with it on the girls from poorer countries."

Narrator: "But she's the one who's hanging all over THEM!"

Coworker: "Yeah. Because that way she knows where their hands are."

And it occurred to me that maybe Robert's doing something similar -- that the reason he's so aggressively take-charge with sex is because that's how he can stay in control of the encounter.

[abeautifulblog]

Where's this thing gonna end?

So I've changed my answer a few times when people have asked how much is left in the fic -- here's the behind-the-scenes.

Originally it was going to be a one-shot -- just that first chapter, a static portrait of depression and alcoholism. The ending of it caught people off-guard, because we expect change and progress in our narratives, so it's disconcerting to reach the end and get neither. It begins with Robert miserable and hungover, alone in the dark except for Betsy, and it ends with him miserable and drunk, alone in the dark except for Betsy, no improvement, not even any cause for hope. It’s a rude thing to do to readers, but that’s what alcoholism and depression is.

And then the bake sale chapter came to me; I don't recall the inspiration, and initially I was apprehensive of the reception it would get because it was so very different in tone from the first chapter. But hey, it turns out people like seeing Robert have a good day too, and together those two stories didn't form any real meta structure, but I could live with that.

And then, Scheherazade-like, the same night I posted “The Zara Shirt," my brain furnished me with the complete plot for “This House Just Sings (This House Just Screams).” And suddenly the chapters started getting harder to write, because suddenly they mattered more. It wasn't just about Robert's depression anymore, or his fluffy escapist romance with Gene, it was also really, really important to me that people understood just how fucking terrible Joseph is, that there is nothing sexy about psychological abuse, and goddamn this fucking fandom and their hard-on for shipping Robert with Joseph. Usually I don't care if people like a pairing that I'm not into -- Steve/Tony? Sure, you do you, bro -- but this... christ almighty.

At best, Joseph is a manipulative serial adulterer who took advantage of someone mentally ill and grieving. At worst, you're shipping Robert with his rapist. If you like Robert, you shouldn't want him anywhere near Joseph, and I could write a thousand words of meta on the subject -- or I could write a fic that delivers the same message.

Anyway, after that installment, the series had developed enough that I felt it deserved some closure before I stopped. As I was working on “This House,” I was also kicking around some ideas for the next chapter to be something more lighthearted, as a palate cleanser -- a romp in which Robert and Mary scheme to trick Gene into getting a dog. Then after that, I thought, would be the closing chapter, featuring some important conversations between Robert and Gene, showing what lasting change looks like for someone like Robert, and ending on a note that is not without complications, but hopeful. (Kind of like the ending of the game.) Five chapters in all, three serious installments with two lighter interludes.

Except it didn't happen that way, because after "This House" my brain was like "lol okay but what if you wrote a sex comedy about Gene and Alex and Craig and Smashley having a foursome instead?" And after that my ideas started wandering more toward Gene's angle (*cough* and Alex) and we got three Gene-centric chapters in a row -- “The In-Laws,” “Her Dad's Dumb Crush,” and Gene's remix of “The Zara Shirt.” And with each chapter, Alex became more and more integral to Gene's world, and rightfully so -- you don't love and live with someone for fifteen years without shaping each other. Gene's history is so deeply wrapped up in Alex, all the major touchstones of his life have involved Alex, all his beliefs about what relationships should be and how to make them work were formed by his experiences with Alex.

And it was while I was writing the foursome chapter that it stopped being a coincidence that Robert and Gene hadn't had sex yet, and crystallized as yet another thing that Robert had issues about -- which is why the chapter that wound up coming out next was the morning-after coda, “After the Storm,” when they finally acknowledge the existence of those issues. And it meant that the ending wasn't simply a matter of getting around to writing a sex scene (and addressing the alcoholism, and addressing the depression), it also needed to work through the intimacy issues that Robert's Joseph-related PTSD had left him with.

(That's part of what delayed the sex comedy -- that in the original version, it was Robert who prompted it, and Gene told the story to him, not Mary. But halfway through, it became blindingly clear that this is not a story Gene can tell Robert. Not at this point in their relationship; Robert is already wildly insecure about his worth as a partner and how he measures up to Alex's memory, and struggling with his hangups about sex. Listening to a story about how much Gene adored Alex (and all the crazy awesome uninhibited sex they had) would have gutted him. So it got overhauled, and Robert got swapped out for Mary and her more neutral, prurient curiosity.)

And that means the ending isn't just addressing the romance, and the substance abuse, and the depression, and the PTSD, Robert also needs to reconcile himself to the memory of Alex and the place that he's always going to hold in Gene's heart.

So yeah, I admit, I keep moving the goalposts.

But what makes an ending satisfying is whether it provides proper closure and forms symmetry with the rest of the story. And as the story evolves, so too does the ending need to, or you're going to wind up with a Harry Potter epilogue situation -- a jarring return to primary colors after the story has broadened into shades of gray. Delving deeper into Robert's character and his myriad issues has meant reassessing where the finish line needs to be -- and for Robert, the finish line has never been about sex, or even romance, really. They show that in the game -- that his good ending isn't about getting to shag the Dadsona, it's about finding the will to change and finding someone who cares about him enough to support him in that endeavor.

So I wouldn't say that I have a plan for the ending exactly -- I'm still playing it by ear and letting the story unfold as it wants to -- but I do know what it needs to accomplish and I am building toward that resolution, not just meandering around pointlessly. It'll probably cap out around 100k~120k, because novel-length is the only way I know how to tell a story.

Now if I could just get over this fucking writer's block that leaves my head full of stories but without the words to tell them.

[abeautifulblog]

It’s kind of funny that you get four opportunities to have sex with Robert, and five opportunities to say no – and one opportunity to have sex with Joseph, and zero opportunities to say no.
