You know those images that a lot of kink blogs post... the ones that overlay text onto pictures of pretty girls? Sometimes the girls aren't doing anything kinky at all, they're just pretty. And the text says something like, "I own your little peeny weeney." Or something stupid like that. It's often FemDom content.
Yeah, I'll block you if you post those.
Not only is it lazy and ugly content, but those women didn't consent to being in your dumbass fantasies. Get that garbage off of my dashboard.
#I hate it#and I find it to be disgusting#so many of the images are clearly scraped from girls' instagram accounts that have no idea#that is nasty work

I spent the evening looking into this AI shit and made a wee informative post of the information I found and thought all artists would be interested and maybe help yall?
edit: forgot to mention Glaze and Nightshade to alter/disrupt AI from taking your work into their machines. You can use these and post and it will apparently mess up the AI and it wont take your content into it's machine!
edit: ArtStation is not AI free! So make sure to read that when signing up if you do! (this post is also on twt)
[Image descriptions: A series of infographics titled: “Opt Out AI: [Social Media] and what I found.” The title image shows a drawing of a person holding up a stack of papers where the first says, ‘Terms of Service’ and the rest have logos for various social media sites and are falling onto the floor. Long transcriptions follow.
Instagram/Meta (I have to assume Facebook).
Hard for all users to locate the “opt out” options. The option has been known to move locations.
You have to click the opt out link to submit a request to opt out of the AI scraping. *You have to submit screenshots of your work/face/content you posted to the app, is curretnly being used in AI. If you do not have this, they will deny you.
Users are saying after being rejected, are being “meta blocked”
People’s requests are being accepted but they still have doubts that their content won’t be taken anyways.
Twitter/X
As of August 2023, Twitter’s ToS update:
“Twitter has the right to use any content that users post on its platform to train its AI models, and that users grant Twitter a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to do so.”
There isn’t much to say. They’re doing the same thing Instagram is doing (to my understanding) and we can’t even opt out.
Tumblr
They also take your data and content and sell it to AI models.
But you’re in luck!
It is very simply to opt out (Wow. Thank Gods)
Opt out on Desktop: click on your blog > blog settings > scroll til you see visibility options and it’ll be the last option to toggle
Out out of Mobile: click your blog > scroll then click visibility > toggle opt out option
TikTok
I took time skim their ToS and under “How We Use Your Information” and towards the end of the long list: “To train and improve our technology, such as our machine learning models and algorithms.”
Regarding data collected; they will only not sell your data when “where restricted by applicable law”. That is not many countries. You can refuse/disable some cookies by going into settings > ads > turn off targeted ads.
I couldn’t find much in AI besides “our machine learning models” which I think is the same thing.
What to do?
In this age of the internet, it’s scary! But you have options and can pick which are best for you!
Accepting these platforms collection of not only your artwork, but your face! And not only your faces but the faces of those in your photos. Your friends and family. Some of those family members are children! Some of those faces are minors! I shudder to think what darker purposes those faces could be used for.
Opt out where you can! Be mindful and know the content you are posting is at risk of being loaded to AI if unable to opt out.
Fully delete (not archive) your content/accounts with these platforms. I know it takes up to 90 days for instagram to “delete” your information. And even keep it for “legal” purposes like legal prevention.
Use lesser known social media platforms! Some examples are; Signal, Mastodon, Diaspora, et. As well as art platforms: Artfol, Cara, ArtStation, etc.
The last drawing shows the same person as the title saying, ‘I am, by no means, a ToS autistic! So feel free to share any relatable information to these topics via reply or qrt!
I just wanted to share the information I found while searching for my own answers cause I’m sure people have the same questions as me.’ \End description] (thank you @a-captions-blog!)

I love you
꘎♡━━━━━♡꘎ ꘎♡━━━━━♡꘎
Pairing: Og8 X gn reader
Summary: When the public finds out you're dating your boyfriend, the fans have a lot to say.
Genre: Fluff
Word Count: 4.7K
A/N: I have to admit, to whomever requested this, I made this a lot more fluffy and lighthearted than I was originally going to. Some of these are a little more serious than others, but I layered a few jokes in, so I hope it makes you laugh. No matter if you date a k-pop idol or not, some opinions of people are just that; opinions (stupid and irrelevant) Live your best life and do what makes you happy <3
_ _ _
Chan:
“I could really use some inspiration,” Chan called over his shoulder. “So if you find yourself growing bored or getting cold or-”
“Not interested,” you mumbled. You took another sip of your drink and continued scrolling through your phone. You didn’t bother to look up when you responded.
Ever since Dispatch released a photo of you and Chan, the fandom was in shambles. Half of them were defending you and the other half was planning ways to end your life. Chan told you to ignore what people said, but it was about impossible to ignore when your social media accounts were being bombed every few seconds.
Every refresh sent new hate tweets and every time you opened Instagram, you were tagged in more and more photos. You had to turn off your Insta comments because they were flooded with hate. Ever since it happened, you’d been glued to your phone. Every new hate comment was another chip at your heart.
Chan was sitting at his laptop and working on stringing the vocals of another song together. Most of the song was being arranged by another producer, but he wanted the beginning to sound a certain way. Chains clanked, a certain whistle sounded, and then the bass dropped.
He’d been working at it for over an hour and he was expecting you to come curl into his lap like you usually did, but as time went on, you stayed behind him on the studio couch. He tried to focus, but it was driving him insane, he just wanted you for five minutes. You were too busy with your nose in your phone to notice.
He finally shut his laptop, stretched his arms above his head, and he let out a groan. He leaned back and kicked his feet to push him away from the desk. At any time, you’d take notice, rush over, and practically jump on him, but you didn’t.
He waited five seconds and then ten. Thirty trickled into forty and then he scraped his foot along the floor to face you. “Okay, what’s got you so obsessed that you can’t even look at me? You’ve been on your phone for so long. Did you find someone else to replace me?”
You finally glanced over at his voice. Your head slightly shook and you hesitated, but clicked your phone off. “I haven’t, but maybe you should find someone else to replace me. The fans are saying that you’re out of my league.”
“Those that are saying that aren’t my fans. Those are cunts that will-”
“You can’t call your fans cunts, Chan.”
“It’s the Aussie way!”
“It’s the way to get your ass in trouble if management hears you.”
“And that’s why they’re not here and it’s just us.” He opened his arms and sat back in his chair. “Come here. Come give me the love that I deserve. Let me love you.”
Your face softened as you stared at him. His hands clinked as he made grabby hands in your direction. “Come on! You know you want me. You want me soooo bad.”
“You’re a child, I swear.” You let your phone lay, placed your beverage on the coffee table, and headed over to him.
He giggled, wrapped his arms around your waist, and jerked you onto his lap. You barely had time to understand it before you were straddling his lap. He cooed and squeezed you tightly as he slightly rocked back and forth in the chair.
“Who’s the cutest of them all? You are. Who’s the prettiest and the best? You are.”
“You’re talking to me the exact way you talk to Berry.”
“And that’s why I know that you secretly love it. You always get cuteness aggression when I do that, don’t you?” He reached up and gently squeezed your cheeks in his hands. A baby voice slipped out and his dimpled smile grew.
You couldn’t help, but burst into laughter as the tip of his nose bumped yours and he gently tickled the sides of your torso. _ _ _
Minho:
“Are you praying or meditating?” Minho asked as he joined you at the breakfast table. A plate of scrambled eggs and toast was sat down in front of you. “You should finish quickly, preferably before your food gets cold.”
Your hands were clenched tight and you sat straight up in the wooden chair. Your nostrils flared as you sucked in a deep breath through your nose and let it out through your mouth. Your eyes remained shut as you finally spoke.
“I’m sending out a message to whatever grand and divine divinity is listening out there.”
“That’s new for you.” He grabbed a fork and scooped up a pile of yellowed eggs. “So enlighten me, what made you find religion at seven in the morning?” He took the bite and began to chew.
“May God give me the strength to not tell Minho’s fans to sit on my middle finger and swivel.”
He stopped chewing and his eyes grew wide. Your own eyes opened and met him. For a brief moment, the two of you held eye contact. It was quickly ruined by Minho’s bubbly laughter turning into a choke. Bits of half-chewed scrambled eggs hit your face and your look of disgust only made him laugh harder.
He swallowed the remnants, grabbed his napkin, leaned over the table, and wiped the moist bits away. “I’m so sorry, but you shouldn’t have said that while I was chewing. You could have waited until I swallowed.”
“This is their fault too.”
“What could they have possibly done to make you so enraged at this early in the morning?”
“One of your so-called fans went viral on TikTok. Take a guess as to why that was.” Your arms crossed over your chest and you scowled.
“Why?”
“Because they lurked on my Instagram and found a post that I posted two years ago. You know how I regularly volunteer at the animal shelter?” He hummed softly. “Well, they found that post and they found the caption where I admitted that I was a dog person!”
“And?”
“They’re ripping me to shreds for it! They’re claiming that we’re not compatible because I’m a dog person! Who does that? And they’re all on TikTok like-” Your voice grew high-pitched as you began to mock the comments that you recounted in your head.
He stared at you and a fond smile appeared on his face. Too engaged in your discourse, you didn’t realize how silly you sounded. You went on and on and on until he stopped you. “Are you done yet?”
You huffed and threw yourself back in your seat. “Yes. No. Maybe. I don’t know.”
“Definitely a dog person. If a cat person was in your situation, we just would have posted photos with more cats to piss them off more.”
“You’re not helping.”
“I didn’t ever imply I was going to help the situation. That’s called comedy. I might go on Bubble and agree with them. What about that?”
You glared at him and all he could do was chuckle. Without missing a beat, your middle finger went up. “Sit and swivel.”
“You first, sweetheart.”
_ _ _
Changbin:
“And you know what they say,” Changbin whispered as his eyes drooped. “A chicken breast a day keeps the muscles swole and slay.” Half asleep, his words turned into utter nonsense.
Meanwhile, your hands were on your cheeks in the bathroom attached to your bedroom. With the door wide open, you weren’t really paying attention to his words. You were focused on pulling your eyebrows up and pushing your nose down.
“Changbin?”
“No, Hyunjin hasn’t bought me my diamond ring yet.”
“Huh?”
He blinked and jerked upright in bed. His sleepy eyes found you leaning against the bathroom door frame with a frown on your face. “What did you say?”
“I called your name. Do my facial features look weird to you? Ever since the news broke about us dating, they keep calling me ugly. That’s the one prominent thing they keep commenting on.”
You glanced back to the bathroom mirror with a deepened frown. “Are my eyebrows the issue?” You stepped back inside, stood to the side, and sighed. A finger brushed down the slope of your nose. “Maybe that’s the issue?”
“No, Felix, you can’t crawl in my muscles and live inside of them forever.”
Your eyebrows narrowed as you jerked your head back to the room. Changbin’s head tipped down to his chest and his messy black hair sat in every direction. “What did you say about Felix?”
He groaned, his head jerked up, and he rubbed his eyes. “What about the fans?”
“They keep calling me ugly.”
“WHAT?” He kicked and scrambled, nearly tangling within the blankets trying to get up. The sound of a loud thud sent you running back to the entrance to check on him.
When you peered around the frame, he was pushing himself off the floor. “No, no, no!” Both of his fingers wagged as he marched in your direction. “I won’t stand for that kind of nonsense! Ugly? Maybe their personalities are ugly and just plain RUDE.”
“But they keep-”
“Nuh-uh.” He placed a hand on your hip and spun you around to face the bathroom. “I don’t care what they say. They’re not dating you and that means that their opinions are irrelevant.”
He bent down and scooped you up. Your arm went behind your head and you allowed him to carry you back to bed. He bent down, pulled down the blankets, and gently laid you down. “The two of us are going to bed because we’re sleepy and you know what?”
“What?”
“When people are sleepy, the opinions of others start to matter.” He pulled the sheet over you and then a blanket. “We don’t like when that happens, do we?” His head shook. “No we don’t, so we get some sleep.”
“Are you gentle parenting me, right now?”
“Shush.” He patted the top of your forehead fondly and added another blanket. Another blanket was followed by a final blanket and he stood back to take in the scene.
You were covered up your chin with all the heavy bedding. He nodded, walked towards you, and pressed a soft kiss on your forehead. “And what do we do when we’re sleepy and the opinions of others start to affect us?”
“We go to sleep, I think.”
“Do you know why?”
Your head shook.
“Because we don’t take criticism from people that we’d never go to for advice. That includes meaningless conversations online from faceless accounts. Sleeping also helps reset the brain, so when we can wake up, we can feel fresh and rejuvenated.”
“I like that quote.”
He hummed, walked around the bed, and crawled next to you. A hand shifted beneath your back and he tugged your body against his. “I like that quote too. Now please, go to sleep.”
“What’d you say earlier about Hyunjin not buying you a ring yet?”
“Shut up and sleep.” _ _ _
Hyunjin:
“Babe, it’s not that serious.”
Your heart clenched at the words and you swallowed the hurt in your throat. You stared at the phone in your hand, clicked it off, and gently laid it off to the side. Hyunjin just got home from work and all day, you’d been dealing with the aftermath of your relationship leaking to the public.
Horrible and terrible things were being said about you. You tried not to let it bother you, but things tended to be taken to heart. A few videos were leaked by fans who stumbled upon you and you and Hyunjin were in an argument over something stupid. The fans caught it on tape and since then, you’d been called a variety of curse words under the sun.
“Do you think I’m flawed for taking things too seriously?” You asked after a wave of silence broke between you. “Because even your fans agree, just by one video, that I take things too seriously.”
On the other end of the living room, his face fell. “I didn’t mean it like that. The argument that we were having, they don’t understand that we banter like that all the time. Just because you view life through a different lens, it doesn’t mean it’s a bad thing.”
He pushed himself from the recliner and headed to your end of the couch. “I’m sorry for acting like it’s nothing. I’ve just learned that most fan discourse is to be ignored. They’re always assuming or seeing things that aren’t really there. It’s an endless void and if you let yourself drown in it, you’ll be miserable.”
“I didn’t consider that you’ve never dealt with issues like this before.” He plopped down beside you and tugged you into his lap. “Whatever they say and whatever stupidity that they come up with, it doesn’t define you. I wouldn’t be with you if I hated you.”
“Their opinions are irrelevant and a lot of what you’re hearing, it’s anger from their own insecurities. You were meant for me and that’s just how it is. I’m not meant to live a life following the opinions of others and neither are you.”
“My opinion was the right opinion,” you mumbled. “I just don’t see how they could agree with you over a stupid idea.”
He playfully scoffed. “Nuh-uh! Mine was the right one.”
“Who doesn’t like eggplants?”
He groaned and threw up his hands in disbelief. He shoved you back towards the arm of the couch and threw himself onto his back. “BECAUSE WHY WOULD YOU? Were you born sick?”
You’d keep fighting him about this topic, not necessarily because you loved eggplants, but because you liked watching his theatrical reactions.
_ _ _
Han:
“Okay, you’re not talking and it’s really starting to freak me out. What more do you want from me? Honey? You’re not chatting like you usually do.”
“Yeah, I know.” You shrugged and let yourself relax against the porch swing. The metal frame had a canopy above it and the two of you were enjoying the last tendrils of the setting sun.
Milky pink, soft blue, and a dusting of fireball red swirled around the sky. Han was crisscrossed in his socks while he talked about his day. Usually, you’d be piping in with comments or asking him questions, but today, you just occasionally hummed.
You focused on the sky and you let your feet gently sway your body back and forth. He continued rambling and rambling and rambling. Usually, the two of you bounced from topic-to-topic, but when you didn’t utter a word after his third story, he frowned.
“Are you listening to me?”
“Mmhm.”
“Then why aren’t you talking? Are you mad at me?”
Your eyes found his and your head shook. “No, I just thought you might like it better if I was quiet for once. I don’t always need to be saying things and interrupting your conversations. We always change directions and I thought it’d be nice for you to finish a story without you being distracted.”
“But I love when the conversation diverts elsewhere and we talk about other things before coming back. It’s really fun and I like it.”
“Do you really or are you just saying that to make me feel better?”
He pushed himself to sit up and let his legs fall to the ground. “Why would I lie about that?”
“Your fans think I’m too loud and too much. I guess I got worried that maybe you think that too. I get so happy and excited to talk to you. I don’t mean to be so loud, but I–”
“Don’t ever apologize for existing loudly. I love knowing you exist and knowing that you want to interact with me. It’s one of my favorite parts of the day, so please never stop.”
“You mean it?” You whispered softly.
“With my whole entire heart.” He leaned closer and pressed his lips to yours. Your eyes slipped shut and you let your body relax. When he pulled away, his eyes twinkled beneath the fading rays of sunlight. “Can I do that again?”
“Do you really have to ask?”
He grinned and leaned forward to kiss you again.
_ _ _
Felix:
“Babe! Babe! Babe!” Felix burst into your room beaming. “I did it! I did it! I’m not bronze anymore! I finally got a higher rank!”
Your eyes widened and you spun around in your gaming chair. On your head, your headphones sat on your ears and your microphone was on. You shot Felix a look of panic and his face fell. “Oh, shit,” he whispered.
Dating the love of your life was easy, but it was harder when you earned your living by streaming gaming content and Felix was an idol. With such public lives, the two of you weren’t sure how to break the news. Felix wasn’t even sure if his company would allow it, so when he found a significant other, he just never told them.
Awkwardly, he grimaced and backed out of the room. Your eyes squeezed shut as you internally cursed and spun yourself back to face the ongoing livestream.
“IS THAT FELIX FROM STRAY KIDS?”
“If the fans don’t kill you first, jyp will.”
“Holy FUCK, when did that happen?”
“And if I said that never happened and the stream glitched?” You laughed nervously and tried to play it off. Your eyes went back to your game and you tried to breathe and not panic, but it wasn’t working.
It didn’t help that when you glanced over, the chat was being filled with hate. People were fuming about you having a significant other. Others were fans of Stray Kids and they were pissed off that you of all people were dating their favorite idol.
“So how about we talk about something else? Like how you guys have been doing or literally anything else?” You forced a laugh, but it didn’t help. More and more comments were rolling in.
When you caught wind of more hatred, you blinked rapidly, trying not to cry. Not to mention, the level you were playing, your character kept dying. Too shaken up by the events, your fingers weren’t as quick as they usually were.
After about five minutes of torture, the door to your room flung open and caused you to jump. You glanced back over your shoulder to find an angry Felix striding into the room. Before you could stop him, he pulled your chair away from your camera set up.
“Okay, that’s it, it’s me.” He got on his knees, so he was in the camera frame. “I’d really appreciate it if you wouldn’t be mean to my significant other in the gaming chat. They’ve worked so hard to get to this point and I don’t think it’s fair that you’re making this about me now.”
“Felix, you don’t have to-”
“Do you know how hard it is to date a gamer when you’re stuck on bronze?” He continued.
“You should date someone with a real job.”
Felix read the comment and frowned. Without missing a beat, he responded. “And I think you should get a real life instead of hiding behind a screen with a Skibidi Toilet profile picture.”
You gently placed a hand on his shoulder, reminding him that he didn’t have to do this. He reached up, gently placed his hand on top of yours, and squeezed you back. He didn’t have to do this, but he wasn’t going to let you deal with the masses alone.
He thought the Skibidi Toilet meme was stupid, so it felt like knocking down two birds with one stone.
_ _ _
Seungmin:
“Are you going to take a break anytime soon? You’ve been busy for the past few hours and I told you that I was going to take you out to dinner.”
“Could you give me another hour?” You glanced up from your spot on the floor. In your hand, a screwdriver and in the other hand, you were holding a shelf of a smaller book shelf that you were trying to put together.
“Um…” Seungmin’s head tipped and he frowned. “Yeah, I guess. Did you get a burst of inspiration or something? You’ve been working in this room the entire day. You stripped the carpet, you put in those hardwood sections that I told you I’d help you with. Now,” he gestured to the bookshelf, “you’re building furniture.”
You shrugged, “I just wanted to get our room prepared. It’s harder to move between an apartment and a house if the rooms aren’t ready, so I thought I’d just spend the day fixing it up.”
“But…”
“But?” You echoed.
He wanted to point out your short attention span and tell you that this certainly wasn’t like you. He wanted to ask if you were okay or mentally unwell, but you looked bored by the conversation. Your eyes continued to wander back to the instruction booklet to make sure you were placing pieces together properly.
“Never mind, just call me when you’re ready and we’ll go.”
You watched him spin around and leave. Your attention went right back to the bookcase. Ever since you caught wind of his fans calling you lazy, you were forcing yourself to be more self-disciplined.
Seungmin did it with such ease. Even when he didn’t want to do things, he pushed himself harder. Maybe that meant staying longer to learn a dance or it meant taking extra vocal lessons. Perhaps, it was just spending extra time in the recording booth to nail vocals. Seungmin seemed to get the whole self-perseverance thing, but you were different.
Tasks were more difficult for you to get through. Having a short attention span didn’t help and oftentimes, you found yourself getting distracted or doing other things. Motivation was hard to come by for you. You were trying to work on self-discipline, but it was a long process.
You were dubbed lazy by Seungmin’s fans after Seungmin made a light-hearted joke in the interview. He called you a homebody and joked that you were like a lazy cat, constantly curled up somewhere and not doing much. It never truly minded Seungmin and it was just a joke, but when the fandom heard it, they weren’t happy.
They didn’t understand how someone with so much go could date someone with such little motivation. It worried them and the lighthearted joke rolled into an entire hate train. Comment after comment was plastered on your feed.
Since then, you were trying to make yourself seem useful. You ignored the short attention span of yours and forced yourself to keep going. This was day one of what you had internally dubbed your new life.
A shriek a short while later sent Seungmin rushing back to the room you were in. You were there with a hammer and gripping your thumb while you cursed up a storm. He rushed to your side and gently grabbed your hand.
“Let me see it. What happened?” He pulled your now red and throbbing thumb away from your other fingers.
All you could do was hiss in pain. It took a few seconds before you could admit that you accidentally slammed your thumb, with the hammer’s head, while driving a nail into the side of the wood.
“Can you bend it?” Worried eyes found yours.
“I don’t even want to attempt to do that. It hurts so bad, I wish I was kidding. I can physically feel it swelling up.”
“Let’s put the restaurant on a rain check right now and let’s get you to the doctor.”
He pulled you up by your good hand and led you into the living room. It was there that he helped you slip into your shoes and began tying the strings. You watched him with a frown on your face.
“This is so stupid,” you mumbled, feeling mortified about everything. “Your fans were right and so were you. I have an awful attention span and maybe all I’m really good for is laying around and being lazy.”
He glanced up at you with a raised eyebrow. “You haven’t seen that your fans are hitting me with hate, have you? You made that joke last week and now I’ve become a failure in their eyes.”
“I have a lot to say about that, but I think we need to get you to the emergency room. Do you think the doctor will IV you? Maybe if I take a photo of it and ask for prayers, they’ll think you’re dying and then they’ll feel awful.”
“That’s incredibly petty.”
“Yeah, well, nobody gets to bully you besides me.”
_ _ _
Jeongin:
Jeongin’s arms reached out for you and then you dipped down. You ducked away, spun around, and began to talk about your day. Jeongin’s face puckered in displeasure, but he didn’t fight it.
“How was your day?” You asked once you were finished.
The two of you arrived home at the same time, just like usual. Your days were polar opposite, but it always led to different conversations. You were pretty stationary at your job, but Jeongin was constantly on the move.
“It was okay.” He reached out for your hand, but you tugged it away when you saw him reach for it. “The guys and I screwed around like usual. We started to learn a new dance and I think by the end of tomorrow’s practice, we’ll have it fully down.”
“That sounds amazing. You guys are really good at learning dances so fast. I don’t think I could ever do something that quickly. It takes me a few days to get the dance moves down.”
He hummed and reached out again, but once more, you ignored his outstretched hand and you side-stepped it. When you did it again, he finally reached out, grabbed your hips, shoved you forward, and then shifted you. When he was finished, you stared at him with wide eyes.
His hands remained on your hips and he pinned you against a living room stand. Your throat pulsed as you swallowed a loud gulp. His eyes met yours and they narrowed.
“What?” You finally uttered as you squirmed beneath his gaze. “What are you looking at me like that for? What did I do?”
“Are you playing dumb right now, or are you being serious?”
“Huh?” “You won’t let me touch you. I’ve tried to grab you a few times and you keep wiggling away, like you don’t want to be touched. Did I do something wrong yesterday?” He gently squeezed your hips. “I don’t know what I did.”
“You didn’t do anything wrong. I just…” You trailed off, not sure if you should tell him or not.
“You just what?”
“That video that leaked the other day, the fans think I’m too clingy. I don’t want to seem like I’m suffocating you. I know that you’re not so huge on skin-to-skin contact, but I also didn’t realize just how much I do it.”
“I don’t want you to feel like you have to do something just because I like it. You’re allowed to have boundaries in this relationship and if I’m clinging to you and touching you way too much, then I-”
“Don’t finish that sentence.”
Your words halted immediately. Under the scrutiny of his stare, it was getting harder to stay still. You sucked in a deep breath and his fingers squeezed your hips once more.
“I know I’m allowed to have boundaries, but I’ve learned to like your touch. I don’t mind it if you’re constantly touching me. If you’re laying on me, curled around my arm, or just holding hands, I’ve learned that I really like it.”
“Are you sure?” You whispered. “Because truly, if you don’t like it-”
“I never admit it because of the guys,” he finally admitted. “If I admit that I don’t mind your skinship, the guys will be all over me. It’s already bad enough that the seven of them still view me as a helpless teenager.”
A smile cracked at your face. “It just means that they love you, Innie.”
“And I love them, but I also love being grown and being independent. Now enough of that, where’s my hug? My evening kiss? I’ve had a long day and I’d really like to be touched.”
“Words of a pervert,” you mumbled beneath your breath.
“What did you just say?”
“Spoken like a true perv-”
He cut you off by pulling you towards him and connecting your lips.

I've decided to create a whole list of SFW headcannons for each bachelor and bachelorette. I do have some NSFW ones, but will NOT be sharing them here. Hope you all enjoy and that my favorites aren't too obvious 🫣
Sam:
- 23 or 24 at the oldest
- I think he's tall, nearing 6’0” if not there
- has a lot of ear piercings, maybe gauges
- has a tongue piercing
- probably has a lip ring or two idk I think he'd look good with snake bites but idk if he would actually have that or not. Ik Jodi would hate it lmao
- has a scar through his eyebrow and in other places on his body from skateboarding accidents
- is also always covered in scrapes and bruises for similar reasons
- loves animals, especially dogs
- very golden retriever coded and is blatantly clingy
- very outgoing and was probably the class clown type in high school
- loves rock and metal music, especially 90s grunge and punk
- definitely has a battle vest/jacket
- can only grow a bit of stubble on his chin that he stubbornly keeps
- is very muscular since he is so athletic
- can play the drums as well as guitar
- is always tanned bc he goes outside a lot
- probably would be a good dad bc he spends a lot of time with his little brother and seems very protective of him
- can befriend almost anyone
- has some silly tattoos
- likes the song writing process the most about music
- used to play acoustic guitar bc his dad taught him how. He rarely plays acoustic anymore, but will if you ask him to
- is very close with Vincent despite the age gap and enjoys being around children
- has ADHD
- his favorite season is summer bc that meant no school as a kid and just never stopped loving it
- very clingy and loves physical contact
- wears several rings
- lets Abigail paint his nails bright colors and begs her to redo them when they're gone. Red, green, and blue are his favorite colors but he doesn't have a preference
- develops crushes easily
- never got great grades in school
- has done illegal things like trespassing, speed racing, graffiti, lighting things on fire, etc
- he and Sebastian naturally were friends since shortly after they met
- would run a meme account on Instagram or something
- has freckles all over
- amazing singer, I imagine he has a voice similar to Noah Sebastian from Bad Omens (ik that's a common HC but whatever) and I imagine his band making similar music
- tried to teach Seb to skateboard and it didn't go well at all
- would write love songs and poems about his partner
- mischievous 25/8, I like to think in middle school he used to watch a ton of prank channels and would recreate the pranks much to everyone's annoyance
- just a silly guy, he will always keep his whimsy
- sk8r boi to his core
- I feel like he learned how to play a lot of meme-y or annoying songs on guitar just to be obnoxious bc he thinks it's funny
- I think once he moves out he'd do a lot of growing up but that doesn't mean he wouldn't be silly and kind of a rebel sometimes
- I feel like he's really into punk fashion and bands
- probably likes Nirvana, Blink-182 and Green Day a lot, I imagine he's into a lot of 90s music, probably 80s too, I can see him being really into Led Zeppelin and other hair bands and stuff
- would probably listen to any kind of rock or metal tbh. I think he probably chooses the music when the trio hang out together. Like maybe he has a playlist he made with all of the music they like on it and he likes to update it regularly to make sure there's something on it for everyone
- would ask if you'd still love him if he was a worm
- he probably liked dinosaurs as a kid but more in a "I want them to eat each other and destroy my toy cars and little cities like godzilla" kinda way than "I can name every dinosaur from the jurassic period and know random facts about all of them" way, which I image is more the kind of kid Seb was
- he writes most of their band's songs, but Seb and Abby like to contribute to lyrics and melodies sometimes
Sebastian:
- 25 or 26

- gave Sam and Abigail some of their piercings and did some of his own ear piercings

- became besties with Sam when they were kids (ik Sam grew up in the city, just let me have them as smalls playing together okay 😭)
- has a soft spot for all animals not just frogs
- originally learned to play the piano, Robin taught him how
- has never been in a relationship but I feel like maybe he's been kissed and had his first time at some point. He's awkward and kinda a loser (lovingly) but I imagine he's not entirely oblivious at the very least
- has a dry sense of humor + is super sarcastic. I feel like he might be really witty and pop off with something sometimes. Probably also likes to tease people a bit
- wears contact lenses, used to have giant nerdy glasses as a kid
- doesn't get cold bc he's used to the cold in the basement
- I am a doc martens/boots wearer Sebastian truther but I imagine he also wears converse type sneakers a lot too, especially in the warmer months since boots get too hot
- Maru's room used to be his
- loves horror, sci-fi and fantasy mainly but I feel like he secretly likes romance a tiny bit and he watched cheesy romance films with his mom growing up. He will NEVER admit to it though
- I feel like if he just learned how to cook he'd be good at it
- dislikes pda, seeing it and participating in it
- would show up at your house in the middle of the night to take you on a nighttime motorcycle ride under the stars
- will quit smoking if his partner dislikes it, even before marriage. I think he'd be really eager to please his partner in any way he can, and that would include quitting smoking
- he picked up smoking just to piss off his step-dad/maybe a little bit for attention too
- paints his nails black with markers when he's bored (unless Abigail does them)
- wears frog print socks secretly. I feel like he also has froggy pajamas. Or maybe the farmer bought them for him idk
- is actually really strong despite being pretty skinny. He has some faint abs maybe (if you squint really hard, trust), he probably got them after meeting his partner though bc he wanted to help out. Has toned arms from his mechanic work, but that's it tbh bro is a twig
- bought his motorcycle by himself and Robin hates it. She worries about him every time he goes out on it. She even pitched in to buy some of his gear because she wanted him to be as safe as possible
- wears eyeliner sometimes
- is touch-starved
- falls in love hard and fast
- wears a few rings on a nearly daily basis
- can also play electric guitar, Sam taught him how to at some point, although he claims he isn't very good if you ask
- can sing really well, he just never does bc he gets shy. I think he'd have a really sweet voice though and I imagine he sounds like Ricky from MIW
- writes songs sometimes but is shy about claiming them as they're often personal
- introverted as fuck, his social battery dies very fast and it wears him out
- is secretly skilled in the mines I think, especially given what gifts he can give you as your spouse and his dialogue about the rock crab in the mines
- very great mechanic and fixes stuff around the house without anyone noticing
- his closet is mostly black with hints of gray, red and white thrown in
- probably listens to MCR tbh and had a phase where he was obsessed with them in like middle school or something
- I think any rock and metal music with really emo or angsty lyrics would be his thing. Probably like metalcore too. Bad Omens, MIW, BMTH, shit like that, but he'd like and respect the greats as well, especially since he'd be listening to music with Sam a lot. I'm really into Ghost rn and I feel like he'd like them too idk
- ties his hair up when working sometimes
- smokes pot occasionally with Sam
- he's naturally pretty bc I said so
- smells like spicy cologne, something woodsy, motor oil, rain and faintly of cigarette smoke (he's careful to smoke outside only bc Robin hates it) (maybe smells a little like weed sometimes too)
- is the most mature of the A.S.S. trio
- highly intelligent, especially emotionally, he just isn't really known for it
- once he moves out he and Maru spend time together and end up making up and starting to have a healthy relationship until they eventually become besties. I imagine that they mainly bond over sci-fi movies and novels or comics

- please take a rest good sir
- wishes he could grow a beard but it's patchy af so he just shaves it off and keeps his mustache
- I feel like he's divorced or like got left at the altar or some shit and it took a huge hit on his confidence. Maybe a long term relationship went really poorly? Like he wasn't there much bc of med school and long hours and such and so he was cheated on or broken up with after a long term relationship that he thought was going well
- used to work in a big hospital in the city but the shifts and internal politics took a toll on him so he moved to Pelican Town to open his own small practice

- I feel like she has a high alcohol tolerance and could drink a lot of people under the table and it always surprises them especially given she's tall and thin so there's not much to her

Haley:
- 21
- only 5'3", she didn't get the tall genes
- bc she used to live in the city she grew accustomed to that lifestyle and had a hard time adjusting in Pelican Town. I imagine her photography was probably a huge source of comfort for her during that time

- kind of babygirl coded idk

- I think she and Leah would get along since they're both artsy. Maybe even Elliott too
- ykw fuck it, she, Emily, Leah, Elliott and Alex have sleepovers sometimes and they also set up a little fair in the town square for the kids with Penny to educate them about the arts and Alex would be general support for them but might even do fun games and activities with the kids too
- definitely a pop girlie but I think she'd secretly listen to a bit of the oldies with Emily. Likes all the typical artists you'd expect like Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Chappel Roan, Shawn Mendes, Sabrina Carpenter, Britney Spears, Beyonce, One Direction, etc. But I also imagine she's into some 80s and 90s stuff too like Destiny's Child, Spice Girls, Michael Jackson, Prince, David Bowie, NSYNC, Backstreet Boys, etc.
- would have a tiktok and do a lot of the trends. Probably does a lot of get ready with mes and story times too
- has the most aesthetic Instagram you've ever seen and posts all of her photos on it
- has the most followers in Pelican Town

- she and Alex always somehow know all of the gossip and are constantly have little tea spilling sessions
Penny:
- 20
- 5'5"
- tries her best to be sociable. I imagine she really likes people she's just a bit more quiet and so she comes off as being really shy
- she is interested in history, poetry and literature and wants to become a teacher one day so she is tutoring until she saves up enough to go to college
- book club with Maru and sometimes Leah and Elliott joins
- loves children so much, I imagine she really wants to be a mother
- I feel like she likes to bake and cook even though she sucks at it (but over time she does improve!!!!)
- probably the straightest bachelor/ette at first glance, but I kinda ship her with Maru tbh so…yk
- trad wife tbh
- she'd bake you bread and cookies all the time if u were her friend
- I feel like she reads classic literature a lot and might actually get along well with Elliott
- likes to take care of people in general honestly and is a HUGE people pleaser
- kinda vanilla tbh, I think she's just really sheltered and idealized the "perfect" traditional family since she never got that for herself so much tho so it comes off that way
- loves nature, cares a lot about plants and animals. Goes on walks a lot
- likes to spend time making lesson plans for Jas and Vincent (and later Leo)
- knows Alex is giving Jas and Vincent candies and ice cream but pretends not to notice bc she thinks it's sweet he likes them so much
- Only paired with Sam bc he's kind of childish and she clearly likes to take care of people. I think Maru (or even Harvey?) would be a much better pairing for her
- probably likes stuff like Celine Dion and Whitney Houston. Maybe even Taylor Swift. Ykw if anyone was gonna listen to country out of the bachelor/ettes it would be her. I think she also likes to listen to movie scores as well tho and needs calm background music while she's working
- she'd have a dislike for Sebastian and Shane simply bc they don't look at the world the same way she does. I don't think she gets along well with pessimistic people at all. Haley and her probably also don't like each other much
- is jealous of Maru for having a good relationship with her parents and spends a lot of time at her house
- likes to use community resources with the kids a lot (library, museum, park, community center, etc)
- health conscious, I imagine she actually takes a lot of care of herself in that regard
- wears very stereotypically feminine attire. I feel like she might also be really into 50s styles and silhouettes but might even like some of the more preppy 90s looks too
- probably likes old classic Hollywood a lot, I feel like The Wizard of Oz was her favorite movie as a kid. Nowadays she probably has a Marilyn Monroe or Audrey Hepburn movie as her favorite. For some reason I'm feeling Gentlemen Prefer Blondes or maybe My Fair Lady
- likes old romance films, but I don't think she reads much romance
- reads mainly poetry, classics, history and teaching handbooks and guides, but since she does book club with Maru, I imagine she's read her fair share of scientific works and sci-fi novels
- always wanted to learn to play an instrument but never really got the opportunity to do so
- likes to crochet or knit
- collects stuffed animals, even though she's worried that its childish
- likes going to festivals and carnivals
- I feel like she's pretty religious
- won't knowingly consume alcohol bc of her mom but when she does she is very much so a lightweight. One drink and it's game over. Also feel like she's a very flirty drunk, or and overly honest one
- her father cheated on her mom and they divorced/he left them for his other family and now she distrusts people (especially men)
- loves botany and is also super into Victorian flower language
- wears Mary Janes and ballet flats the most
- early riser and a morning person

- sculpture is her favorite art medium and she finds herself inspired by the greats
- I feel like she's a Monet fan tbh
- very close with Haley, Elliott, and Robin
- she spends a lot of time outside finding inspiration from nature and is especially fond of the ocean. She probably goes on fishing day trips with Elliott and will just paint or draw most of the time

- 20
- 5'4"
- very interested in all kinds of science as well as technology and engineering (we stan women in STEM)
- I'm sorry she's just so cute
- definitely a big bookworm, sci-fi is obviously her favorite, but she often gets mad at the bad science in some of them
- would have a blog where she reviews books, movies, and TV shows she reads/watches
- probably used to write fanfiction tbh

- golden child in every way, I don't think she's ever done anything bad in her life
- daddy's girl fr, she and Demetrius have always been very close and it shows

- night owl, I think she almost stays up as late as Sebastian
- I imagine she probably really likes astronomy and stays up late looking at the stars when she isn't up late working on projects. She probably has the kind of personality where she will focus so hard on a project that she'll forget to eat or sleep because she doesn't want to lose the ideas she has or will be too determined to fix something or finish the project
- was very good at math in high school as well as chemistry. I think she may have even been in a science or math based club like mathletes or physics or something
- tries not to always suggest sci-fi novels during book club but often can't help herself
- I feel like she actually really enjoys medical dramas as well
- might even like classic film and musicals bc Penny got her into them and will find herself humming songs from musicals while working

- I think once she finally bonds with Sebastian it'll be like over Star Wars or something
- owns several pairs of glasses so that she can swap out the frames to match her outfit
- she has textured hair with really pretty defined curls. Sometimes she'll get braids done, but usually she let's her natural hair shine as is but likes to wear headbands and fun headscarves to keep her hair out of the way when she does her projects.
- does own a pair of contacts that she occasionally wears
- sometimes she forgets she's got goggles on her head or around her neck after working on a project
- wears a lot of cute and casual clothes that are more easy going like jumpers, cardigans, overalls, shorts and a t-shirt, just super casual and comfortable
- still has held onto her childhood favorite toys
- has a large collection of books whether they're novels, manuals, or scientific and medical textbooks
- knows first aid and is very good in an emergency
- I think she and Harvey probably talk about books and planes a lot when things are boring at work
- takes really good care of her hair
And that is all for now!! Sorry I posted this so late I had a lot going on irl. I've also got some dating and NSFW HCs for the bachelors (and a few for the bachelorettes but not enough for a full post for them atm) and maybe someday I'll post those but for now this is it. Thanks for reading hehe

December 06: Shawn Calder

00 │ 01 │ 02 │ 03 │ 04 │ 05 │ 06

Online model Shawn Calder scrolled through his Instagram feed. He’d just posted a question to his followers on his story thread: “What do you want for Christmas?”
A simple, innocent enough question in order to boost engagement. Plus, the fact that the picture he’d selected to go along with it was one of him shirtless, flexing his plump pecs in the mirror would only serve to encourage engagement tenfold. Shawn wasn’t oblivious to the fact that a large percentage of his followers were mainly there to lust over his impressive pectorals, which the stud was all too happy to show off in his numerous pec bouncing videos which always garnered tons of likes.
As the hunk relaxed on his couch, he scrolled through some of the answers from his holiday question. His followers responded with typical things like consoles, food, etc. However, one of the responses caused Shawn to bellow out laughing.
What I want for Christmas is your big sexy muscletits.
Shawn chuckled as he looked down at his t-shirt, easily seeing his mounds that were pressed against the tight cotton. Playfully, he gave them a little flex.
“Well, I’d hate to disappoint ‘em,” Shawn joked to himself, grabbing the end of his t-shirt. The hunk froze though when he felt an odd pressure forming on his chest— more specifically: his pecs.
Before Shawn could voice any of his concerns, his eyes widened as he saw his already sizable pecs begin to balloon outwards. The muscle mounds grew to an exaggerated size, tearing his t-shirt to shreds as they enlarged. Shawn’s meaty pecs grew up and out, rounding as they inflated to the size of basketballs. They got so large that the stud could already feel how drastically limited his range of motion was as he repositioned his arms around their crazy size, and when he looked downward, they completely blocked his view of anything south. Even his nipples enlarged, hardening and forming large nubs that were about the size of the man’s thumbs as they protruded off his new muscletits.
“Wh-what—?!” Shawn panicked as he stared down at his new upper shelf. The top-heavy hunk stood up, having to alter his stance to account for his now massive muscletits. This resulted in him having to arch his back, which only shoved his pecs further out. And when he took a step, his pecs bounced and jiggled.
The hunk hurried into his bedroom to examine himself in the mirror, blushing wildly at the way his constantly bouncing chest sent little darts straight to his hardening cock.
Shawn gasped loudly when he stared at his warped reflection in the mirror, paling at the massive pectorals that were attached to his chest. They were insanely large and made the rest of his muscle groups look smaller by comparison. Shawn even shivered a bit when his stubbled chin scraped the top of his muscletits, even that minor sensation feeling oddly pleasurable.
“This can’t be happening…” Shawn muttered as he studied his top-heavy physique. He gave his pecs a tentative squeeze, letting out a loud moan as his knees went weak at the ripples of pleasure that emanated from his pecs throughout the rest of his body. He was left panting, his massive chest heaving as his cock tented his shorts out in front of him.
The stud began to look around his room, his stomach dropping as he realized that no shirt could ever cover his juicy melons. The thought of himself walking down the street with such big muscletits jiggling around for everyone to gawk out made Shawn blush. Sure he loved to show off his (previously normal-sized) pecs online, but the thought of doing so twenty-four/seven with such mammoth tits made him feel utterly humiliated.
…and a little excited.
Despite his embarrassment and bewilderment over his inflated pecs, Shawn didn’t hesitate to start bouncing them like he would frequently do in his videos. The muscle mounds leapt and crashed back down, rippling with the movement as he flexed his tits. All the while, his hard cock throbbed and ached with want.
But Shawn didn’t notice.
He upped the ante and reached up to palm both of his muscletits, giving them a rough squeeze.
“Ooohhh!” the stud moaned loudly as he pursed his lips, playing with his tits as if it were his new form of masturbating.
In a flash, all of Shawn’s panic and humiliation over having his pecs morph into gigantic muscletits evaporated, and the top-heavy stud hungrily began groping himself.
Shawn bellowed out another slutty moan, pursing his lips as he groped and played with his muscletits. His cock twitched and leaked precum the entire time, completely going untouched. The stud began to thumb his enlarged nipples, feeling as if a lightening bolt rippled right through him.
“Uunnnghh!” Shawn squealed as soon as he grazed his hard nipples, blowing his load in his shorts. As he tensed up and came, Shawn could feel his massive chest bounce and jiggle, loving the sensation.
As he panted, his enormous pecs heaving, Shawn struggled to piece everything together. Not only had his pecs somehow inflated to the size of melons, but evidently they were also super sensitive. Shawn felt a meager spark of humiliation over the idea of going around, only able to get off if he was having his new muscletits played with.
But then the stud thought about having another man grope his chest and suck on his hard nipples, and Shawn’s cock rocketed straight back to life.
Without a moment’s hesitation, Shawn grabbed his phone and went live on his OnlyFans.
“I’ve got a Christmas gift for you all,” the top-heavy Shawn purred as he recorded himself bouncing his muscletits in the mirror for his followers to see.

𐙚 oneshot. Can you just shut him up for me, baby?


read with caution: violence, description of blood, miscommunication, season two rafe vibes, dealer!rafe, aggression, jealous!rafe, possession, fluff, murder, ends in a cliffhanger unless i get enough requests for a part two synopsis: reader has a obsessed ex, who's always texting her, she tells rafe "can you shut him up for me?" and he most literally shuts him up. my inspo for this was one of @bunnitalksxoxo's ai bots, but the obsessed ex idea is mine, pet names, the only description about the reader is that she wears pink and gets her nails done a lot.
The party was in full swing. Kildare's usual house parties, where no one really cared who was a Pogue or a Kook. Everyone was here for one of the many: to get wasted, high or laid. Sure, they say they're here to chill, not to have too many drinks. But that changes after the first shot or two. Solo cups and cheap beer that has a better affect than most. There was no music. Just a whole lot of chatter on sync. Nothing new. I wish I hadn't convinced Rafe to come here. But staying indoors was so boring. Now, he was nowhere to be found. I was sat alone, in a pink lace halter top. Sulking to myself, I hadn't seen my boyfriend in an hour. I had been taking shots of cheap ass beer out of boredom, which I stole from the kitchen. I didn't even know who's kitchen it was. My skin felt heated, like the sun rays had seemed itself into my skin. What was I, some sort of burning star up in the sky about to burst? My vision was blurry, my eyes felt so droopy. But I kept my eyes wide open, I wasn't planning on passing out. I didn't trust anyone here. So I walked around, and all of a sudden, I wish I hadn't worn such long inched heels. I convinced Rafe I could walk around in them. Now, I just have to convince myself. My manicured nails, that were dripped in baby pink scraped the walls, just so I could stand up straight. I peek over, my head tilting to see what was going on. I see Rafe there, sitting next to Barry. I didn't really know Barry, and Rafe didn't really let me know him either. Always rambling on about how he's not a good person, how I shouldn't talk to him when he's around. My eyes squint because my double vision was killing me right now. Rafe doesn't see me, not yet anyways. He's just talking to a few guys that look a bit old. There's coke, and I finally started getting the hang of what it looked like after dating Rafe for a few months. By instinct, my feet started moving towards Rafe, as I sat beside him, as he spoke to the other dealers. I cross my legs, my usual posture, then I rest my head on his shoulder. In an instant, his arm wraps on my shoulder, as he spoke, running his rough edged fingers into my hair. I felt relaxed. Knowing he was still attentive while talking, was aware of my presence. He kisses the top of my hair absentmindedly. It was one of his habits, I don't even think he realised it. But it never bothered me as such. As I scroll through Instagram, I kept getting messages from my ex, Eli. I let out a huff of annoyance, my eyes narrowing, as I roll my eyes. This was the fifth time this week, and I was so over it. At first, I found it funny. But he's been bothering so much this week. No matter how many times I blocked him, he always found my accounts on social media. This time, it was Instagram. First message? Fine, I ignored it. After a few minutes. Another one. Okay, I have patience. I'll ignore it. I tell myself after the next five messages he's sent me, and then I finally text him.

What I didn't know was that Rafe was silently reading all of this. I didn't know what he was feeling. Anger? Jealousy? Possessive? Was he finding this amusing? I didn't know. I glance over my shoulder, and I could see his eyes narrow at the particular message Eli sent: You're such a bitch. I sigh, already exhausted with the whole situation, and I hand Rafe my phone. "Can you just shut him up please? He's really getting on my nerves, and I've already got a headache." I mumble, my head buried in his chest. What I also didn't know that my simple question, my simple question which I had no violent intention inside it, was a loaded gun to Rafe's twisted mind. One hell of an opportunity for him. He gives a wide grin I didn't even see, my eyes were so droopy that I didn't even see that twitching glint in his eyes at my words. I don't know what he did with my phone after. I thought he sent a few threatening messages, nothing less. Or simply blocked.
HOURS LATER, RAFE'S BEDROOM. [mentions of blood] The sun was setting, I was so bored after that party, and I was slouched on my bed in Rafe's shirt that wasn't even my size, but it was warm and with Rafe's cologne smudged all over it. Gave me enough warmth than an actual bed. I was watching The Conjuring, that's how bored I was. Resorting to horror movies. That's when I hear, someone entering the house. A smile reaching my lips in an instant, as I thought of Rafe. But then it got eerily quiet. Maybe it was just that horror film feeling. Then I hear someone in the kitchen, cleaning up something. Out of my own boredom, and my own intrigue, I left my room, barefoot. My heart stops, and I scream so loudly, like the banshee type. I see Rafe, my boyfriend Rafe. Drenched in blood, the bangs on his face sticky on his skin, and he's draped in sweat and blood. His skin glistened, and the scent of blood was awful. His hands are bloodied and veiny, the veins look like they're about to burst if he doesn't stop clenching his fists. He's wiping a knife, and there's a trail of blood on the floor. "What the hell are you doing!" I scream, stepping back, and I feel blood on my feet, and I just wanted to run back into my room and turn off the Conjuring. There's this glint in Rafe's eyes that I never noticed before, and he's smiling. Usually, I love his smiles. It was adorable. Now it was just downright terrifying. "You told me you wanted me to shut him up for you, baby." He says.

I think most of us should take the whole ai scraping situation as a sign that we should maybe stop giving google/facebook/big corps all our data and look into alternatives that actually value your privacy.
i know this is easier said than done because everybody under the sun seems to use these services, but I promise you it’s not impossible. In fact, I made a list of a few alternatives to popular apps and services, alternatives that are privacy first, open source and don’t sell your data.
right off the bat I suggest you stop using gmail. it’s trash and not secure at all. google can read your emails. in fact, google has acces to all the data on your account and while what they do with it is already shady, I don’t even want to know what the whole ai situation is going to bring. a good alternative to a few google services is skiff. they provide a secure, e3ee mail service along with a workspace that can easily import google documents, a calendar and 10 gb free storage. i’ve been using it for a while and it’s great.
a good alternative to google drive is either koofr or filen. I use filen because everything you upload on there is end to end encrypted with zero knowledge. they offer 10 gb of free storage and really affordable lifetime plans.
google docs? i don’t know her. instead, try cryptpad. I don’t have the spoons to list all the great features of this service, you just have to believe me. nothing you write there will be used to train ai and you can share it just as easily. if skiff is too limited for you and you also need stuff like sheets or forms, cryptpad is here for you. the only downside i could think of is that they don’t have a mobile app, but the site works great in a browser too.
since there is no real alternative to youtube I recommend watching your little slime videos through a streaming frontend like freetube or new pipe. besides the fact that they remove ads, they also stop google from tracking what you watch. there is a bit of functionality loss with these services, but if you just want to watch videos privately they’re great.
if you’re looking for an alternative to google photos that is secure and end to end encrypted you might want to look into stingle, although in my experience filen’s photos tab works pretty well too.
oh, also, for the love of god, stop using whatsapp, facebook messenger or instagram for messaging. just stop. signal and telegram are literally here and they’re free. spread the word, educate your friends, ask them if they really want anyone to snoop around their private conversations.
regarding browser, you know the drill. throw google chrome/edge in the trash (they really basically spyware disguised as browsers) and download either librewolf or brave. mozilla can be a great secure option too, with a bit of tinkering.
if you wanna get a vpn (and I recommend you do) be wary that some of them are scammy. do your research, read their terms and conditions, familiarise yourself with their model. if you don’t wanna do that and are willing to trust my word, go with mullvad. they don’t keep any logs. it’s 5 euros a month with no different pricing plans or other bullshit.
lastly, whatever alternative you decide on, what matters most is that you don’t keep all your data in one place. don’t trust a service to take care of your emails, documents, photos and messages. store all these things in different, trustworthy (preferably open source) places. there is absolutely no reason google has to know everything about you.
do your own research as well, don’t just trust the first vpn service your favourite youtube gets sponsored by. don’t trust random tech blogs to tell you what the best cloud storage service is — they get good money for advertising one or the other. compare shit on your own or ask a tech savvy friend to help you. you’ve got this.

Blood Hunger
Part of the Tender Loving Care AU
Pairing: Vampire!Aleksander Morozova x Fem!Vampire!Reader
Summary: Aleksander takes you on your first ever visit to a feeding den, remaining by your side to offer advice and support for this new and unfamiliar experience.
Warnings [18+]: blood, typical vampire themes, blood consumption, allusions to sexual content, usual soft dom vibes from Aleksander
My Masterlist
The feeding den Aleksander takes the two of you to is unlike anything depicted in the films and television shows that are so popular with humans, or from what you’ve seen in the wild selfies and videos posted on Instagram by much younger vampires.
Most feeding dens are similar to nightclubs, allowing both human and vampire patrons inside as long as they are above the legal drinking age. The higher scale feeding dens are more selective, only allowing vampires who have a membership into the building, aside from the humans who work there.
The humans working at all respectable feeding dens are regularly tested to ensure that their blood is clean and healthy to avoid any diseases from being passed onto the vampires feeding from them. High scale dens, like the one Aleksander has brought you to, also provide their human workers with plenty of benefits to ensure that they remain both physically and mentally healthy. After all, being fed on can be an intense experience.
“How do you decide who to…”
As your gaze lands on a human, tilting her head back for a vampire to sink his fangs into her neck on the other side of the room, your words trail off into nothing. Hunger stirs in your stomach at the sight, despite your nerves.
“How do you decide who you would like to feed on?” Aleksander suggests knowingly.
You nod.
“Generally just whoever smells the most appealing.”
Subconsciously, your eyes trace over the exposed skin of his throat, lingering on the thrum of his pulse as his heart beats its steady rhythm. When you realise you’ve been staring, your cheeks flush with a flustered warmth and the corner of Aleksander’s lips twitch with the hint of a smile as he observes where your gaze has focused. One of his dark brows lifts, his smile spreading into a smirk as you drag your eyes away from him to survey the floor once again.
“Although for today I would suggest you take comfort into account, instead of taste,” he adds.
His words make you frown, and you tilt your head as you turn back to face him.
“What do you mean?”
“Since it’s your first time, you should pick someone who doesn’t intimidate you - someone who will make you feel at ease about biting them.”
The only person you’ve ever fed from is Aleksander. Just the thought of feeding on someone else has apprehension prickling over your skin despite the fact that you haven’t fed since yesterday at noon. There’s a gnaw of hunger in your stomach and the urge to bounce your leg to dispel the nervous energy runs through the limb in question. He brushes his knuckles against yours in a reassuring motion. Staring down at his hand, nerves continue to roll over in your stomach and your thumb scratches lightly against the palm of your other hand.
“How will I know when to stop?”
Aleksander places his hand over both of yours, enveloping them entirely with his palm which halts your nervous fidgeting, knowing that if you scratched for long enough your skin would break under the scrape of your nails, causing your palm to bleed.
“Only selfish vampires are the ones who succumb to their instincts. You aren’t a selfish person, milaya.”
There’s hesitation in your eyes but as soon as they meet Aleksander’s, and find nothing but genuine belief there, some confidence fills your chest. Inhaling shakily, you nod, and he provides your hands with a gentle squeeze. When he loosens his hold, his hand drops down casually to settle on your thigh as a reassuring pressure that reminds you of his presence by your side. Despite his confidence, concerns and worries continue to tighten around your lungs.
“You still look worried,” he observes.
“Where am you supposed to bite?”
He considers your question briefly before he shrugs casually.
“It depends on your preference,” he explains, circling his thumb gently over your thigh. “Some people find the neck too intimate for a casual feeding, while some struggle to find the right angle for the wrist. Whatever is easiest for you both.”
“Would you stay with me?”
He nods.
“If that’s what you want?” You nod quickly and a soft smile traces over his lips. “Has anyone caught your eye?”
There had been a young man who gained your attention earlier, though his features bear an almost embarrassingly close resemblance to Aleksander, which makes you rather reluctant to admit how appealing he seemed. Rather pointedly, you keep your gaze fixed on the buttons of Aleksander’s shirt.
“He’s too young,” you say quietly in a mumbled protest.
Aleksander laughs, a sound that makes you blush, his teeth flashing as he tilts his head back slightly. With amusement sparkling in his eyes and a carefree grin on his face, he doesn’t look over four hundred years old.
“I hate to tell you this, but with that mentality almost everyone here is too young for you.”
The smile that tugs at your lips is sheepish as you look down at your feet, swinging them back and forth momentarily.
“Except for you.”
His expression softens as he nods with a smile.
“Except for me.” There’s a small pause as he holds your gaze before he reminds you in an almost teasing voice, “But you can’t feed on me all the time.”
Aleksander stands, pushing his chair back into place before he extends his hand out towards you.
“Let’s go find him then,” he says, his eyes alight with laughter despite the low lighting around us. Taking his hand, you frown at him and stand up by his side.
“Who?”
“That young man you had your eye on when we arrived.”
Your jaw drops and Aleksander laughs again quietly. Immediately, you clasp your hands over your face to hide the embarrassed blush spreading over your cheeks. Had you truly been that obvious?
“Stop it,” you protest weakly, trying not to smile at the sound of his laughter.
He chuckles, tugging you into his side as we move around the chairs. As always, your body slots easily beside Aleksander’s and he settles his arm around your shoulders, a reassuring pressure to keep your steps even with his. He lowers his head down to murmur against your ear,
“If you do well, I’ll feed on you afterwards.”
At that, your head perks up.
“Really?”
He almost looks surprised by your reaction, his head tilted aside whilst his lips flicker into a half-smile.
“If you would like you to?” There’s some hesitation in his eyes, as he scours your face in an attempt at reading your thoughts. You nod instantly.
The man you had noticed earlier is seated in a booth at the far end of the den. There’s a pitcher of ice-cold water and a handful of glasses perched in the centre of the table, alongside a small candle that flickers through a frosted glass jar. The dark emerald leather seat curls in a half-circle around the polished wooden table.
Nervous energy thrums through your body. How do you politely ask someone if you can drink their blood? He offers you a friendly smile, raising a brow as he glances between your uncertain eyes and Aleksander hovering behind you as a safety net.
“Hungry?” the man asks.
The smile that tugs at your lips is sheepish as you nod, and he slides over in the booth to provide some open space beside him. Despite Aleksander’s teasing earlier, the man doesn’t look much younger than you, physically. Hesitantly, you move forwards as Aleksander stands beside the empty seat opposite you.
“You don’t mind if you stay, do you?” Aleksander says casually.
His words are phrased like a polite question, but his tone makes it evident that the two of you would simply find someone else if Aleksander wasn’t allowed to remain with you. It doesn’t come to that though because the man shakes his head amicably.
“Not at all.” He glances at you, raising a brow with an unfaltering smile. “First time?” You nod and he offers you his hand to help you sit down beside him. “I’ve done this plenty of times before.”
Nerves continue to buzz uncomfortably beneath your skin. If your hands weren’t clasped so tightly together in your lap, they would be shaking for everyone to see. But Aleksander’s presence in the seat opposite you provides some reassurance, allowing you to focus on the man beside you and the task at hand.
“I’m James.”
Smiling nervously, you offer him your name in return.
“Have you fed on anyone before now?” he asks.
Immediately, your flickers over to Aleksander while you fidget with your fingers, smoothing the pad of your thumb over each of your nails.
“Just one other person.”
James nods in acknowledgement, his easy smile unfaltering as he tilts his head to look at you.
“Where would you like to start?”
There’s a moment of hesitation as you think through the different places you could bite before you offer him a suggestion.
“Wrist?”
He nods again, unbuttoning the cuff of his left sleeve.
“Sounds good to me.”
At the sight of his bare forearm being revealed, your mouth goes dry. His heartbeat is only slightly elevated in anticipation, though he appears to be quite calm about the situation. He said he’s done this on a number of occasions which comforts you a little. At least he knows what he’s doing - and Aleksander is here with you.
Slowly, you take James’s hand in your own, bearing his wrist with veins openly on display. If the unnaturally chilled temperature of your hands unsettles him he doesn’t show it, which you appreciate. Inhaling a deep breath, the scent of his blood fills your senses and your mouth waters. You glance up at his face again, assessing his expression, and he gives you a small nod of consent.
Closing your eyes, you extend your fangs and bite down into his skin. Hot, fresh blood pools into your mouth, a delightfully savoury taste that you swallow down eagerly with a small hum of pleasure. It’s different without Aleksander’s hand at the nape of your neck or cupping your jaw and you feel slightly unbalanced without his touch to ground you.
You drink until you’re almost satisfied, allowing his blood to just take the edge off your hunger, since you don’t want to risk taking too much from him. Licking his wounds feels too intimate, but you don’t want to leave him openly bleeding after the bite, so you keep your mouth over the puncture marks until the blood has slowed considerably. Only then do you lean back, giving him some space after feeding on him.
Sucking your tongue against the front of your teeth, you attempt to clear the rest of his blood from your mouth. James breathes out a soft laugh, his head slumped back against the seat behind you. Aleksander had mentioned that with more time your venom would be strong for him, and you can only imagine how it might affect a human like James.
His smile lingers as he tilts his head lazily towards you, blinking through the haze in his eyes as he does so. When he manages to sit up, he straightens himself with a palpable energy alight in his eyes. He looks rejuvenated as he slides a hand into his hair, ruffling it slightly as he breathes out another quiet laugh of disbelief. Blood hunger sated, the tension has melted from your chest, allowing you to breathe easily and offer him a small smile.
“Thank you.”
He nods instantly, hands splayed on the seat beneath you on each side of his thighs. Despite the fact that he’s lost blood, there’s a flush to his cheeks and he seems ready for anything. Usually, you feel tired after Aleksander feeds on you, most likely from the combination of his venom and the loss of blood. Being fed on clearly has the opposite effect on a human.
“If you ever need a feed, I’m here most evenings.”
His offer stuns you momentarily but you nod in response. When he tilts his head pointedly towards the rest of the club, you slide out of his way to allow him out of the booth. The two of you part ways after an exchange of nods and smiles.
There’s a slight wobble in his legs as he walks towards the bar, and you find yourself watching him as you sit back down onto the edge of the seat. Too surprised by James’s response to your bite, you don’t realise Aleksander has stood up as well. He nudges your knee gently with his, encouraging you to slide further into the booth, which you do.
“That was easier than you thought it would be,” you admit.
Aleksander smiles widely at you as he takes a seat in the open space beside you.
“You did very well.”
Warm blood rushes to the surface of your skin, as he presses his lips softly against your cheek. His nose nuzzles affectionately over your cheek, as he breathes in the scent of your blush, his chest expanding with the depth of his inhale. Your stomach flips at the sound of a small hum of pleasure catching in the back of his throat and he presses a gentle kiss to your jawline, tracing his way up to your ear.
“You smell delightful.”
The heat of your skin prickles down the length of your body.
“I do?”
He nods, humming quietly in confirmation, and his next words, a low admission, are murmured against the shell of your ear.
“My teeth are just aching for a bite of you.”
Tilting your head backwards, you bear as much of your throat as possible for him to feed from, your eyes fluttering closed in anticipation of his bite. When nothing happens, when there’s no sting of pain from his fangs descending into your skin or flood of pleasure from his venom, you open your eyes and blink at him in confusion.
Aleksander cradles the back of your head with one of his hands, the nape of your neck fitting perfectly in the palm of his hand. His fingertips graze over the hollow of your throat and there’s no doubt he can feel the bob of your throat as you swallow. His eyes scour over your expression intently.
“May I?” he asks.
You nod. He waits patiently for you to find your voice.
“Yes, please.”
He smiles though there’s some distance in his eyes as he appears to think something over in his mind.
“What is it?” you ask.
“Would you… would you mind if you made this bite a little messy?”
You blink at him.
“What do you mean?”
“When I bite you, my venom encourages you to relax and stay still, meaning the puncture wound is always small. But if I were to tilt your head slightly during the feeding-” he demonstrates the motion, tilting your head back slightly with one of his fingers now tucked under your chin “-your skin would tear, meaning there would be more blood for me to feed on.”
His hands drop down to settle casually on your thighs, a comforting weight as he remains close to your body without crowding you too much. The hairs on the back of your neck stand up, the cool air brushing over the skin that had previously been shielded by his hand.
“You don’t have to agree. Some people find it enjoyable.”
In your ears, your voice sounds as breathless as you feel, your lashes fluttering at the sight of his darkened eyes in the low light.
“Enjoyable?”
“Well,” he starts with a small smirk. “I would have to clean up the mess with my tongue.”
There’s a beat of silence while Aleksander’s eyes twinkle with amusement at the sight of your widened eyes.
“Oh.”
The thought of Aleksander’s warm tongue moving over the length of your throat, lapping up the blood that spills from his bite, makes heat curl through your body. Once again, he traces his knuckle along your jawline to keep your eyes on his as if he can sense how flustered you are. He cocks his head, curiosity sparkling in the depths of his gaze as he examines you.
“Are you aroused?”
Instantly, your legs snap together, the bones of your kneecaps clashing as you press them closed. The heat spreading over your cheeks dives down your body.
“No.”
He purses his lips together momentarily, suppressing the laughter that shimmers in his eyes at your sudden reaction.
“It’s alright if you are. Feeding in public is a rather intimate affair.”
“It’s not the feeding.”
He lifts a dark brow.
“It’s not?”
“This… this doesn’t happen to me very often.”
His brows draw together for a brief moment, his forehead creasing slightly as he observes your widened eyes and heated cheeks. Then the corner of his mouth lifts and a softness creeps into his dark eyes.
“Oh, sweet girl, is it me?”
His doting tone has you teetering on a knife’s edge of a great big something. Something that you’re desperate for, your fingers prickling with the urge to sink your nails in and claw at this feeling to get what you want - and Aleksander is what you want.
“Aleksander, please, bite me.”
There’s a glimmer in his eyes, as if he’s considering teasing you even further. Though the temptation of biting you seems too much of an incentive for him to move closer.
He takes your chin gently between his fingers, turning your head to one side to reveal a large portion of your neck for him. His nose traces over your pulse as he breathes in your scent. Your heart pounds expectantly, waiting for him to bite down on your throat, anticipation tingling over your skin.
“Ready?”
You nod. There’s a brief pause as he extends his fangs.
“Breathe, little love.”
It’s only then that you realise you’ve been holding your breath and light-headedness has descended. He waits until you’ve taken a soothing inhale, your lungs filling with air which instantly alleviates most of your nervousness. He watches you breathe steadily for several moments. Then Aleksander sinks his teeth into your skin.
Like always, there’s a small sting of pain that quickly diminishes as his venom begins threading through your veins. A muted whimper catches in the back of your throat and you breathe out a heavy sigh as bliss fills your body.
Aleksander’s hands slide up your thighs, slipping beneath your skirt to squeeze at the crease where your thighs meet your hips. His sudden touch in such an intimate area has you gasping, your head falling backwards as you shift yourself closer to his body. The movement itself causes Aleksander’s fangs to drag through your skin, drawing more blood to the surface.
He holds the back of your head, preventing you from moving any further to ensure that he doesn’t spill too much blood. He sucks diligently on the wound, swallowing down as much of your blood as possible. A rivulet of hot blood traces its way down your throat and you shudder at the sensation. Aleksander withdraws his fangs from your skin to lap up the line of blood running down over your collarbone. Sticky blood continues to bloom from the puncture wounds as his tongue licks over your thundering pulse, removing the blood that is already beginning to dry there.
He breathes heavily from the exertion of feeding, each breath brushing delicately over your skin in a gentle caress. His venom helps the skin close naturally, though it takes longer than usual since the wounds are larger this time. Aleksander keeps his face tucked into the crook of your neck, tongue tracing lazily over your skin whenever a droplet of blood rolls down from the wound.
Aleksander’s venom threads its way through your veins, filling your limbs with a comfortable heaviness. Your entire body is enveloped in a sense of comfort and warmth, like being cocooned in a soft blanket, and your sense of hearing is limited to the pounding of your heart, beating a steady rhythm as you also attempt to catch your breath from such an intense feeding.
The sound of Aleksander pouring a glass of water is distant and muffled. Even with your eyes closed, focusing your attention on him as he drinks some water helps you to reorientate yourself. He encourages you to drink some water and you’re surprised by how dry your throat is.
“Easy,” he murmurs. “Small sips.”
It takes some difficulty to do as he says, but Aleksander’s hand at the nape of your neck helps to control the speed of your drinking.
Slowly, the rest of the world comes back into focus. Aleksander’s body shields you from most of the sights and sounds of the club, which seem too bright and too loud compared to earlier. It’s then that you notice the concern in his eyes.
“Can I come home with you tonight?” you ask him quietly, fingers curling into the fabric of his sleeve. He nods, expression softening further.
“Of course. Now?”
You nod. There’s a shakiness to your legs, they feel almost disconnected from the rest of your body as you look down at your heels. Despite being well practised in wearing heels, the thought of walking has apprehension clouding your mind. Aleksander notices your frown.
“What’s wrong?”
It’s difficult to string your thoughts together into something coherent to say to him as an explanation and your lips part for a moment. Nothing comes out as you attempt to gather your concerns.
“I don’t think I can walk in heels, but the buckles look too complicated for me to unfasten in this state.”
He breathes out a soft laugh.
“Well, there’s an easy fix for that.”
He descends onto one knee smoothly, crouching down to unbuckle your heels. His thumb circles soothingly over where the strap has been pressed against your ankle, offering a tender touch to a place you hadn’t even realised was hurting. He squeezes gently at your calves, fingertips casual in their motions, right where you can feel the muscles trembling slightly from the aftermath of his venom.
He tilts his head aside, his eyes scouring over the length of the floor. It takes you a long moment to realise that he’s searching for any broken glass or spilt drinks that might hurt your bare feet or cause you to slip on your way to the exit. When his gaze returns to meet yours you smile softly in appreciation, and he offers his hand to help you stand.
The smooth polished stone that makes up the flooring is surprisingly warm against your bare skin, and you frown down at your feet.
“Underfloor heating,” Aleksander murmurs quietly in explanation.
“Oh.” A pleased shudder runs from the soles of your feet up to your chest. “It’s really nice.”
He breathes out a quiet laugh, keeping you tucked close into the side of his body. He’s warm too, and you find yourself gripping onto the front of his shirt - both to keep your balance and to make the most of his warmth. The straps of your heels hang delicately from his fingers, swinging lightly as you walk.
As you near the exit, goosebumps prickle over your skin and Aleksander shrugs his jacket over your shoulders to protect you from the cool breeze. He presses you close against his side and when he notices your questioning look he murmurs against your temple.
“Your body temperature is about to drop after being fed on.”
Almost instantaneously, a shudder wracks through your body and you grip tighter onto the fabric of his shirt, trying to draw some heat from his body to yours.
He stops at the top of the steps that make up the entrance of the building and you frown at him. The frown on your face deepens when his arm tightens around your shoulders, his other arm reaching for your legs. A small squeal of surprise escapes your lips as he sweeps you up against his chest and you wrap your arms hurriedly around his neck to steady yourself. Aleksander’s smile is wide as he carries you down the steps.
The sudden shift from the heat of the club to the darkened streets make your shivers relentless, your body trembling in the desperate hope of creating some warmth of your own - despite how impossible that is. When he notices your teeth chattering, concern fills Aleksander’s features, and he begins to walk faster towards his car.
Squeezing your eyes shut, you bury your face into his chest to ground yourself and cling to a little more warmth. When you reach his car, Aleksander places you into the passenger seat with ease, pressing a reassuring kiss to your forehead before he closes the door behind you.
Once the keys have been turned in the ignition, Aleksander dials up the heating system and a delightfully warm rush of air floods over your face. Eager for more, you hover your hands in front of the vents to warm your ice-cold fingers. He takes your hands in his own, cupping them between both of his palms to shield them from the cold that lingers in the air of the car. Gently, he begins to rub against your fingers and the friction encourages some warmth to settle beneath your skin.
The two of you stay like this for a long moment, Aleksander warming your hands as you continue to shiver occasionally due to the last slivers of cold leaving your body. The car hums quietly and combined with the rush of hot air they provide a soothing ambience that has your eyes growing heavy. Exhaustion is common after being fed on and all you want to do now is curl up beside Aleksander and go to sleep.
With your fingers still feeling half-numb from the cold, you fumble with the clasp of the seatbelt, trying several times to buckle it with limited success. After your third or fourth attempt, Aleksander takes it from your hands, slotting it firmly into place for you. When your eyes lock, your cheeks warm and offer him a grateful smile. An unreadable emotion crosses over his eyes but he only nods in acknowledgement, shifting his attention towards the car as he puts it into gear.
He turns to look out of the rearview window, placing his hand on the headrest behind you as he does so. When his eyes skim over you, concern touches his features and he says quietly,
“Feel free to get some rest. Traffic should be light at this time, so we’ll be home soon.”
Home. The thought of Aleksander considering the two of you together at his house as a home has a cosy warmth spreading in your chest which encourages you to close your eyes. As always, the reassuring sound of his heartbeat and breathing has a sense of calm filling you as you anticipate each soft exhale. Before you know it, you’re falling into a comfortable slumber.

“Is that what you think of me?” he growled, cornering you against the wall.
“I don't have to think it; you prove it every time you open your damn mouth.”
The silence that followed was thick. Breaths hitched; bodies were too close. Then, without warning, he kissed you hard, as if arguing hadn't been enough.
You responded with the same intensity, tugging at his shirt, clawing at his back.
The kisses were awkward but urgent, the hands desperate, as if they wanted to punish each other with every caress.
“Do you really think you can decide for me, Steve? “
“I'm not deciding for you,” he growled, taking a step closer. “I'm protecting you.”
“I don't need you to protect me!” You pushed on his chest, not moving him an inch.
“Oh, don't you?” His voice became lower, dangerous. “Then tell me why you almost died on that mission.”
Before you could reply, his lips collided with yours. You clung to him, enraged, wanting to hit him and kiss him at the same time. Your nails scratched his back as he lifted you in his arms and carried you against the wall.
“I can't lose you,” he murmured against your neck.
He pulled down your underwear desperately, just enough to keep you there, open for him. His belt fell to the floor with a click, and without a second thought, he penetrated you, making you moan in his ear.
The movements were fast. Each thrust was like a claim, as if he wanted to remind you that you were still alive, that you were still his. Your legs trembled around him, your back scraped against the wall, but you didn't care.
“Tell me you don't hate me,” he whispered between gasps, pushing harder.
“I hate you... so much,” you said, but your body contradicted him. You squeezed him tighter; you wanted him more.
And he knew it.
Steve held you tight, one hand under your thigh and the other on your waist, as if he wanted to pin you against the wall with every thrust.
“Say you hate me again,” he gasped in your ear. “Let's see if it sounds so convincing when you're so fucking wet for me.”
“You're an asshole,” you whimpered, pulling his hair hard, forcing him to look you in the eye. “But you do this to me... and I can't stop you.”
He growled, kissed you, then reached a hand down between you, brushing your clit with his fingers, causing your back to arch with a stifled moan. Your nails dug into his shoulders as you shuddered, feeling the orgasm ripple through you.
“That’s it...” he whispered against your neck, not stopping. “Only mine, do you understand?”
A couple more deep, desperate thrusts, and you felt him come with a low grunt as he held you tightly.

Housekeeping Updates!
So just in case you don't know Meta has made the decision to start scraping everything anyone posts to their new AI. There isn't really a way to opt out either. In some countries you can lodge a formal complaint, but even that doesn't mean your photos or art won't be used despite your wishes.
In a twist no one could have seen coming (sarcasm)... people are leaving or deleting their work. Many artists are going to Cara, an app that is still in Beta mode. I opened an account there as well but am unsure yet if I will post regularly to. I will most likely post my 'official portfolio' there but I don't know if there will be people who aren't artists on the site. So as an art venture it would be great... but on the hopes of connecting with my existing audience? To be seen or shared to people who might commission me? The odds aren't so good.
Lots of decisions to make I'm afraid. At the moment I will be posting my regular content here on Tumblr and to my Patreon (I've had it for years but wasn't using it actively, shout out to the two people who stayed following me over there, you're the coolest). But I won't be posting regularly to Instagram like I was. In fact I've decided to actively delete most of my art from Instagram. And since I can't count on Tumblr to house and categorize and find all that work from over the past four years I've decided to effectively use Patreon as my Archive.
All day I've been copying over my old posts to Patreon, and setting them up in a schedule so they will post once a day for... a very long time. I've barely moved a 100 redesign posts over and I'm into February next year... it's a slow and slightly monotonous process but I think it will be worth it! So if you want to relive my original redesigns on a daily basis they are over at my Patreon. I've set nearly all of them to "all members" so you don't have to be on the paid tier to see them. Only some the oldest/first draft redesigns and some behind the scene screenshots will be for my 'Support System' <3
I am looking into glazing and what not but they have to reply to a DM? or something odd like that so I'm looking at various options while I figure things out. Will this crush my tiny art business? Maybe. Will I do this in protest anyway? Yeah. F Meta. (Holds in tirade about the state of megacorporations owning our data)
TLDR: Meta wants everybody to feed their ai for free, I'm removing posts from IG and archiving them onto my Patreon for all members. I'm still going to be posting on tumblr.
xoxoxo
#ellenart#ellen artistic#screw meta with a spikey baseball bat#patreon#coloring books#things won't really change here#my IG will be cleaned out#and will be more about my business stuff#rather than art

u mentioned that charlattes-construction was harassed off the platform but I didn't find any proof of it. not that I'm doubting u, but id like to see the harassment w my own eyes. or hell, anything that shows they actually drew stancest. I've been digging thru the rabbit hole and I haven't found much
i’ve posted a link to an archive of her stancest stuff before, but here (warning: some stuff is nsfw). it comes from this dreamwidth, but it’s private
the earliest instance i can find of it being leaked would be this /co/ post from 2015:

unfortunately, finding info on charlatte is extremely difficult. the original blog is deactivated. tumblr’s got a spotty search system. the only place i can really find any info on her are /co/ archives.
she was a popular artist, and, suddenly — seemingly around the time of these leaks — she just. disappeared. or, if she’s still around, has scraped any and all connections with the gravity falls fandom. this means she either was harassed, or was so afraid of the possible harassment that she basically destroyed her internet presence. the dreamwidth does have “(sshhh!!! don't tell!!! don't share!!! (esp if you figure out who i am) thank)” in the header, and there’d be no reason for her to set up a secret, private account on a different website if she wasn’t scared of it. maybe it’s a combination of both — she began to receive hate, freaked out, deactivated before it could get any worse.
the truth is, this is a nearly-decade old, niche incident, which means that it’s difficult to find info on it. you also have to consider the fact that this was 2015 — during 2015, proship discourse was rampant on tumblr, but i don’t really remember it being as massive anywhere else. the most i remember from other websites are people thinking it was gross, but ultimately just a part of the internet, and like… niche slideshow discourse accounts on instagram.

tuesday again 12/17/2024
exactly eleven months unemployed yaaaaay. this is late partly bc i went into a fugue state with a craft
listening
the genshin album with the song im obsessed with is finally officially out. this is background music in the Flower Feather Clan, who are loosely gaucho-inspired but also ride giant firebirds? sick as shit.
youtube
it reminds me a lot of aaron copland's rodeo suite and his billy the kid ballet, especially the little hoedown passage at the end.

reading
ripping through more stacks of awful fantasy paperbacks. none of them are bad in an interesting way.
great sex reporting as always from sam cole at 404 media. would strongly encourage people to sign up for their newsletter and make a free account to get past the anti-bot-scraping wall
“If anything, the fact that ‘tradwife’ is a trending porn search term reminds me that the entire concept of the tradwife is just influencer marketing in the first place,” Dahl said. “Most tradwife influencers are actually business owners and the primary breadwinners in their homes, so the term itself is kind of an oxymoron if you think about it. Maybe seeing a bunch of porn labeled "tradwife" will help other people to realize that whether it's an Instagram influencer or a Pornhub creator, tradwifery is just a fantasy after all.”

watching
Tide-Line Blue, a 2005 anime which should feel made especially for me: i love one-season post-apoc anime. it's available on tubi (which is where i found it dicking around for something to watch) but i'm not really sure why it's so difficult to find videos of it on the actual internet.
Tide-Line Blue is set after an environmental disaster later called the "Hammer of Eden" has submerged 90% of the Earth under water and taken six billion lives. The series begins fourteen years after that event with the new and remaining countries being brought together under the New United Nations. However, Gould, a renegade submarine captain wishes to use military force to create peace in the new world order, while Aoi, the secretary-general of the New UN, wishes to use diplomacy, and a boy named Keel finds himself caught up in the middle of it all.

unfortunately this was VERY bad at laying out and explaining the political drama driving the plot. we do not find out Why the rogue submarine captain went rogue until the second to last episode. and not in a teasing raising the stakes way. we spend So much time with this captain, and his decisions feel quite frankly nonsensical a lot of the times without this EXTREMELY important context we do not find out until a halfhearted flashback when he is remembering something. never is this communicated to one of our main POV characters. ever!
i also had to throw my disbelief into the next county bc an astronaut is trapped up there for seven years on a private imaging-based satellite. that man would be dead. it takes the combined powers of many nations and thousands of engineers to keep the ISS at "not currently exploding". and part of that is bc she is very old and only has a little bit of a taste for blood (unlike skylab which actively tried to kill her astronauts at every opportunity) but ONE guy for SEVEN YEARS is still able to make daily transmissions???? that man should be exploded by now. or in organ failure. the human body is not meant to be in space and does not like being in space, as a general rule.
there's a mom that's just. missing. and this is not particularly remarked upon or relevant. i guess she's off doing her own thing? or maybe dead? very unclear. not important but did annoy me.
very pretty pilot episode, and i had a fun time thinking about the ways people survive during massive sea rise, how communications networks without satellites work (i assume there's a lot of bouncing stuff off the moon but the debri cloud around earth looks fucking gnarly in the outer space segments). really do wish this one was better but it is incoherent at best a lot of the time. "eeeee big ship lots of loving shots of instrumentation" only gets me so far
-
playing
Two Full Years Of Stardew Valley. i picked the beach farm bc i wanted to spend more time fucking around in the mines and uncovering secrets and romancing someone (i have never successfully romanced someone in stardew valley) and then forgot that the farming game does actually want you to do a lot of farming to progress. kind of wish i had not picked the beach farm but i am making a fucking killing selling void and dino mayo and various cheeses. plus my eels are happy?
-
making
my back finally feels mostly very uncomfortable instead of excruciating, and i certainly overdid it today cleaning but my house was Gross. i also ripped apart my vacuum and cleaned the dust canister and filters bc that shit was Gross.
40+ christmas and new years' and some very overdue postcards are in the mail: canadian pals, my post office would not even take yours and said to hang onto them until after the strike. i am so sorry. also i have way more canadian pals than i thought!

there are two kinds of thrift stores: ones that like to bag a billion small items together and have a huge horrible wall of weird bagged shit, and thrift stores that don't do that. this was loose on a shelf, i had to get a goodwill manager to price it, and they said "i dunno. 2.99?" so i have had a very pleasant evening gluing together this extremely thin laser cut wood in the style of a papercraft. thank you goodwill.

Hi ! I'm so sorry to trouble you with such question but I'm curious to "investigate" when/if I'm reblogging art posts : how can I know if it's an AI post or not ? Thank you !
I don't love answering this because AI is always evolving and doing a better and better job at mimicking real artists. At some point, people are going to be looking at real, human-made art and think, "hey, that looks just like AI, I'm not going to share it." And that's because AI is TRYING to look like real, human-made art. That's what it's trained on. So that sucks for real artists. The whole situation sucks for artists.
But that being said, it's good to have a starting place when trying to weed out AI. I personally think it's better to avoid looking for the commonly-pointed-out hallmarks of AI - weird hands, backgrounds that don't make sense, patterns that don't line up, etc. I think these are problems that AI is noticeably getting better at masking. The fact that here on tumblr a post of artsy-looking bloody hands recently got thousands and thousands of notes without people noticing it was AI says a lot.
So, what can you look for? Start by going to the source of the art, whether it be DeviantArt, Instagram, ArtStation, whatever. Hopefully if it's a tumblr post, they sourced it properly. Sometimes the person will outright say it's AI. Great! At least they're being transparent. Probably because they got called out too much.
If they don't say it's AI outright, look at that creator's history - how long have they had an account? I've found most accounts with only AI-generated works are fairly new, usually created within the last year or so. But in that time, they've often posted dozens and dozens of works, sometimes one or more per day. It's very unlikely a traditional or digital artist will be capable of churning out that much content unless their works are simple sketches.
Look also at the styles of each work compared to the others. AI creators will often have either different iterations of the same style over and over and over again with only small changes, or styles that are so vastly different from one another that it makes no sense for an artist to have mastered 20 different styles in such a short time.
Keep in mind there are always exceptions and some real, human artists may have galleries that could be mistaken for AI at a glance. A lot of real artists post process videos or gifs of their works, and that's helpful.
Beyond that, there's not an easy, fool-proof way to spot AI. I look at tons of art every day to run this blog so I think I have a pretty good eye for it, and I'm still fooled sometimes. Not a ton to be done about it until it's regulated, although I would encourage artists to use the tools available to cloak their art posted online so it can't be scraped by AI.

Also! For the people who can't organize in person for whatever reason (PLEASE DO IF YOU CAN):
1. Find out who owns the companies you give money to and find out if they donate to Republican causes/Conservative causes - if so, it's time to cut them off. Start considering alternatives, and reach out via phone call to inquire about their company values. Keep track of what you learn and share with others.
2. Cancel your Amazon account - do it. It is time to relearn how to wait a week or two for shipping. Try to purchase things in person from local retailers when you can. If even 3% of the US population boycotts these megacompanies their profits will take a hit.
3. On a similar note, take the USPS option when ordering an item for shipping. It may take longer, but USPS is a federally funded entity that has been scraped to it's barest bones. They cannot accept direct donations, so doing business with them is the next best thing
4. DON'T DELETE YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA. DO NOT LET THE FAR RIGHT COLONIZE ONLINE SPACES AND FORCE US EVEN FURTHER APART. Argue peacefully if you must, and do not fall into name-calling or bullying. Say your peace, share your sources, move on. Instagram/X/Threads/BlueSky/Tumblr are treasure troves of art and community engagement. Flood those spaces with positivity. Good news, art, music, recipes, flood right wing platforms with positive, non political media.
5. Read up. Read about Fascism. Read about resistance. Read about human empathy and deprogramming. Read about revolution. Read about survival. You will be tempted to fall into a spiral of dread - do not fall for it. It's not over yet.
Finally, most importantly: Don't assume someone else is doing it already. One of the reasons the progressive movements keep failing is because people keep assuming that the work is being done elsewhere. Conservatives are organized. The rollout of Project 2025 is going exactly to plan.
Focus.
