#send a numer and a ro/poly^^

[sinnersandsaints-linwrites]

okay holy hell, 200+ people reading following this, I can hardly imagine so many people being aware of SaS, it’s just, overwhelming.

as a thank you, I've compiled a list of prompts from nightprompts that would best suit SaS and ROs, so, feel free to send in an ask with a prompt numer, and characters (either MC x RO, poly route with MC, or two of the poly ROs together; which are Khari & Morgan, and Ariel & Sage for now). I can’t promise to answer every single one, but I’ll do my best! <3

again, thank you for all the love and support, I'm beyond grateful. stay safe everyone, and have a lovely day <3

I know I have a heart because I can feel it breaking.

I hate the way that I don’t hate you. 

‘All right’ is not a term anyone would use to describe you.

Just like old times, huh?

I’ve seen who you are under the mask. 

I should kill you. Why can’t I kill you?!

I don’t know what I’d do if they hurt you. And that terrifies me.

Bullet wounds don’t just miraculously heal overnight. 

You were fighting to survive. I was fighting to win. 

You’re pulling your punches. 

I wish things were different between us.

Don’t scare me like that. i thought i lost you. 

Don’t you die on me. 

You’re so bad at this. It’s cute. 

Do you think i’d let anything happen to you? 

If I told you about the darkness within me, would you still look at me as you are right now? 

I wonder which will get you killed faster: your loyalty or your stubbornness? 

I wasn’t given a choice.

You frustrate me incredibly.

Love me like my demons do.

Thinking of you is a poison i drink often.

Don’t do anything stupid until I get back. 

I love the way your eyes light up when someone says ‘it might be dangerous’. 

I would destroy myself to fix you. 

I’m not going to kill you. You don’t deserve that. 

That’s how you want me, isn’t it? Desperate, jealous, and willing to kill for you.

I wasn’t there for you when you needed me, and I’m sorry. 

You don’t know what I’m capable of. What I’ve done. 

Underestimate me. That’ll be fun.

The question isn’t who is going to let me, it’s who is going to stop me. 

I may be heartless, but you’re naive. 

I’ll survive. somehow I always do. 

Don’t bark if you can’t bite.

I hope you regret giving up on me. 

You are losing my interest, and that’s very dangerous. 

It’s okay. You can let go. 

You mean nothing to me.

It wasn’t supposed to end like this.

We won’t forget each other, right? 

I’m real. I’m here.

I don’t want to go. 

I love you, but you’re not mine.

It would have been better to die. 

I wish i met you sooner.

I told you not to fall in love with me.

Did I do good?

I could keep you safe. They’re all afraid of me. 

It’s not for you. It’s not a favor. It’s the cruelest thing i could do.

I warn you. I’ll break your heart.

Why am I so fascinated by you?

How many times are we going to keep meeting like this? 

You can kiss me, you know.

How badly do you want me?

I like being close to you. You’re warm.

You look good like this.

Shh. there’s people in the other room. 

Say you want me, and I’m yours. 

I won’t bite. unless you’re into that sort of thing.

There’s so many things I wanna do to you. 

I’m going to ruin you. 

Show me how much you missed me. 

Is this okay? 

You know you love me.

Make me.

You’re such a tease.

It’s hot when you talk back. 

You don’t have to be gentle. I won’t break.

Don’t you know what you’re doing to me? 

Are you wearing my shirt? 

You look good with my hands around your throat.

I’ll be good, i promise. 

You better watch your fucking mouth. 

Don’t mind me. just enjoying the view. 

You can be rough. i can take it. 

I shouldn’t allow myself to get this close to you. 

What if i hurt you?

You could never hurt me.

I just wish i could protect you from everything.

Enemies make the best lovers, you know. 

You know, they’re going to use the things you love against you. 

Truth is, i didn’t expect to get this attached to you. 

Don’t act like you know me.

Am i supposed to just let you go?

You deserve better than me. 

Please just hold me.

I don’t want to understand, i want you to stay. 

And why should i care? 

You look awful. 

For what it’s worth, I really am sorry. 

It was a nightmare, that’s all. 

It’s just a scratch, don’t worry. 

Who did this to you?

Please don’t leave me.

Oh, now you care?

Don’t come any closer!

You don’t have to say anything. 

Do you want me to leave?

In just keep stumbling forward where all of their parents immediately accepting of them being in a poly relationship?

No, they were not all immediately accepting.Patton’s Moms

Patton was out to them as poly before dating Logan, Virgil, and Roman

When he came out, his moms were immediately accepting

They knew what polyamorous was and understood it

They did want to make sure that Patton knew what it was and truly identified that way instead of using it as an excuse to cheat on his partners

When he had clarified, that he was poly, actually poly, and did know what that meant, they were extremely supportive and accepting

It also helped that they had gone through a similar process with his older sister when she first brought home her two boyfriends 

(the relationship didn’t last but it was exposure to the concept)

Roman’s Dads

Roman introduced the idea of him being poly to his dads by pretty much saying “Hey Dads, I have three boyfriends here are their names and a little bit about each one”

That was it that was the conversation

Once the shock of “hey our son just called, told us a bit about how his life was going, said he appreciated the cookies last week, and oh just told us he was dating three people all at once” wore off, they immediately called back

His Dad’s jumped to the conclusion that he was cheating and were Very Upset because

1) “we raised you a better person than that” and

2) cheating on partners is haram (forbidden by Islamic law)

Roman explained that no, he wasn’t cheating and that they were all dating each other and it was completely consensual

Dads were confused for a while and stumbled over how to refer to his boyfriends for a long time

“Er, your,, close friends??” “Boyfriends, Dads.”

Part of this continued confusion was due to the fact that Roman didn’t ever really explain it to them

It was actually Patton who explained to Roman’s dads over the phone what polyamory was and what it meant

That was when everything clicked

They were like “oh, so Roman has three boyfriends and all of you are dating each other in one singular, healthy, consensual relationship, that’s a bit new to us, but makes sense”

Patton was like “yes, that exactly” while Roman was like “that is literally what I’ve been saying the entire time”

Patton’s like “Ro, honey, you didn’t explain shit”

(he really didn’t explain it at all)

Roman’s parents immediately fall in love with the 1st of 3 boyfriends

They later made sure to send Roman cute parent texts expressing their support and desire to meet his boyfriends if their relationship ever became that serious

Virgil’s Dad

Virgil’s Dad is like the ultra ally parent

The truth is- there’s not much things that can phase a man who had his son kidnapped by an evil cult only to find and have that child returned to him years later

(and turns out he has a shit ton of trauma and then that kid’s mom left and the kid attempted suicide and started getting into fights)

and well, let’s just say he’s learned to just sort of roll with life

The best part of all this- it was actually Virgil’s father who first introduced Virgil to the term polyamorous years ago

When Virgil came out as queer he pretty much said he wasn’t straight but didn’t know what he was

His father did a ton of research to try and help and found a long list of terms, including polyamorous

Virgil ended up identifying as queer/not straight instead of anything more specific, but this was both of there introduction to the identity

In result, when Virgil explained that he was dating Logan, Patton, and Roman, he was very supportive

“Damn it, I got it wrong.” “What the fuck? Dad what are talking about.” “I thought you were going to date Roman. Not Patton, Logan, and Roman. Guess I’ll just have to deal with getting one of three.” “Your so weird Dad.” “Love you too kiddo.”

Logan’s Parents

Logan’s parents weren’t very accepting when he first came out as gay

It was actually a mixture of homophobia and ableism

In their minds, Logan didn’t have the ability to be gay because he was autistic

They later change their minds after Logan compiled a shit ton of research and created numerous well-crafted arguments

At the same time, to them “changing their minds” is more “Well I guess my son says he’s gay so,, guess I’ll accept that even though I don’t think he can be.”

Being polyamorous (and bi) went a similar way

Logan actually dated someone else before Roman and Virgil but at the same time as Patton

He tried mentioning this to his family, but because he was dating a girl as well as a boy, Patton got brushed off as a “good friend”

After Logan and the girl broke up, Patton got bumped up to “boyfriend” in their minds

When Logan started dating Patton, Virgil, and Roman he decided not to tell his parents at first because of this

When he did tell them, it went pretty similar as last time, with Patton being seen as his boyfriend and Virgil and Roman being “close friends”

When they get engaged his parents just sorta,, ignore the fact that it’s four of them in a relationship

After Exothermic, things start to change a bit more

His parents start to refer to all of his spouses as his “partners” but specifically avoid using any terms like “spouses” bc it makes them uncomfortable and they only half try to understand

Neither Logan nor his spouses mind the term “partner” but the reason Logan’s parents use it does bug them

It’s pretty much just permanently uneasy in that way

Virgil, Patton, and Roman due there best to support Logan as he navigates this area with his parents, and only step in if it’s unhealthy for Logan or anyone else in the relationship

deapoolxandxfriends for the url thingy. Don’t feel as if you have to cover all the muses! If you don’t mind/have time!

[ ♛ ] send me a url and i’ll tell you the following; (Accepting)

my opinion on;

character in general: Alison is so attached to so many of this peach’s characters that it is in real life difficult for me to function sometimes. It started with that fanart of Ali and Steve, then finally having a Betsy for Ali to connect with and it’s spiraled into all these amazing connections to so many other characters. 

how they play them: 

Alexis: Still budding interactions but we already know these two are going to get on swimmingly. As an OC she is obviously written perfectly and I love her conviction to say fuck you to the establishment, risking her job, in order to help someone.

Betsy: Bets and Ro are THE best friends for Ali, in my head, Like if she HAD to pick her best friends these two would be the ones. This trio will kick your ass, look flawless doing it and then you will sing praises of thank you to them. I had a very particular image of Betsy which Koi completely turned on its head but only because I had such a superficial image of her. The way Koi writes her brings so much well deserved depth to Bets’ character. I knew that her Bets was going to be a perfect compliment to Ali when I saw the “Rainbow Titties” ask in my inbox. I was completely right. Their friendship means so much to me and Alison. 

Bucky: Another character Koi writes beautifully (this is gonna be the common adulation) and one that I didn’t go into knowing too much about.                                                                   Ok, so, this asshole! Fucking came out of nowhere! Buck wasn’t even on my radar of interactions for Ali. Sure maybe as Steve’s broody bestie who she’ll eventually have to interact with, that’s cool. Then Alison was like, “He’s hot. Especially in a tank top covered in sweat while his muscles strain in the gym. We’re totally gonna fuck.” Ok, now that I think about it, it started before that with a set of gif manips that I just couldn’t overlook. Those gifs sent this ship sailing. Not sailing, it took off like a rocket! This man has wrapped himself so completely around Ali’s heart and I’ve cried multiple times in real life over their relationship. They both give one another shit on so many different things and the snark generated from it is platinum. I love the dance they do when it comes to relationship dominance, which is the foundation for the previously mentioned antics. It’s not an unhealthy thing either. They both know when to yield and when to push and still give so love, adoration and respect to one another. I suck at words and have so many feelings about them but am gonna stop here. 

Steve: Ali and Steve started with fanart inspo and like Bets, I also had some preconceived notions about Steve. Mostly was going to ignore comics Cap, for reasons, but even with MCU Steve I never spent much time analyzing his character. Just stuff that may happen to pop up on my dashes and mold my idea of his character. The biggest thing I wasn’t expecting was just how fucking stubborn he is. But it’s perfect! And Koi plays him perfectly in all the ways. I’m so excited that that art inspired their initial interactions. He’s such a steady, calming, presence for Alison. Even with some of the shit calls he’s made in respect to her people, Alison respects and trusts Steve. They go way back in the comics and carrying this foundation forward is so great for their friendship. While Steve is an anchor for Ali she’s become a great one for him too. The guy rarely thinks about himself and luckily for him Ali can out stubborn him when it comes to making sure he takes much needed/deserved R&R time. I love that he feels comfortable enough to truly let down his guard around her and trusts her as much as she trusts him, even if they don’t always agree on things.

Thor: Muns that write characters with accurate accents and speech patterns amaze me and I have such respect for them. Koi is one of these writers.This is a new relationship for Ali and I’m excited to possibly explore it more in threads. Ali and Thor as bros is such a precious notion for me. Him being such a staunch supporter of her and especially her poly relationships because he understands that love shouldn’t be limited if everyone in the relationship is open to sharing it is so fucking magnificent. I see him being someone that Alison seeks out for advice just like she does with Bets and Ro. Also the image of him intricately braiding her hair in styles that the vikings were known for, while they chat about anything and everything gives me life.

Wade: Out of all of these muses I went into this interaction with the most well formed headcanons and deep personal feelings about Wade. Aside from Koi and I sharing much of these same headcanons and feelings for him, Koi also has such an incredible gift for writing his voice. I adore how she writes every one of these babes but I think my adoration for the way she portrays Wade so flawlessly, in my opinion, out weighs the others just a smidge. Starting them off in that bodyguard thread sealed their relationship from the start. Wade offers so much to Alison without asking or expecting anything in return. He loves and appreciates her so much and it’s another relationship that’s had me tear up when thinking about a couple times. As much as he offers Alison matches it completely. She doesn’t want to at first, well when it comes to romantic and sexual interactions, but only because she values his friendship and companionship so much she doesn’t want to fuck it up. This is another relationship I have feelings too numerous to write here so.the mun: She’s ok I guess. But seriously I love this woman. Even outside of her indulging Alison’s needy/thirsty ass, I appreciate the friendship that we’ve formed, prompted through these babes. 

do i;

follow them: Always and foreverrp with them: Alwayswant to rp with them:  Have I mentioned always?ship their character with mine: The feeeeeeels

what is my;

overall opinion: Koi is a fantastic person and writer and if you’ve been looking for a certain character to interact with please go check out her muse section because they’re all worth interacting with. 

I’m so happy you put up with me spamming your DMs with gifs and all manner of other things. Thank you for following me and all the love you and your muses heap on Ali and I.  

**Note: Mun’s answer are all to be completely honest. Don’t send url if you don’t want brutal honesty.

Bipartisan Legislation Introduced To Protect States That Have Legalized Marijuana

Today, Senators Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Cory Gardner (R-CO) introduced bipartisan legislation, The Strengthening the Tenth Amendment Through Entrusting States (STATES) Act of 2018, to remove the threat of federal intervention and prosecution in states that regulate marijuana use and sales. A bipartisan House companion bill has been introduced by Representatives David Joyce (R-OH) and Earl Blumenauer (D-OR).

This marks the first bicameral, bipartisan legislation to end the federal enforcement of prohibition in states that have reformed their marijuana laws.

Send a letter to your elected officials NOW

NORML Executive Director Erik Altieri commented:

“President Trump made a commitment to Senator Gardner that he was willing to support a federalist approach to state marijuana laws. Now Congress must do its part and swiftly move forward on this bipartisan legislation that explicitly provides states with the authority and autonomy to set their own marijuana policies absent the fear of federal incursion from a Justice Department led by militant cannabis prohibitionist Attorney General Jeff Sessions.”

Specifically, this legislation:

Creates an exemption to the Controlled Substances Act for US states and territories that have reformed their laws with regard to marijuana policy, effectively restraining undue federal intervention

Maintains federal legislative provisions (aka “guardrails”) to deter:

The interstate trafficking of marijuana into prohibition states from legal states

The prevention of those under 18 from working in the cannabis industry

The prevention of those under 21 from purchasing marijuana (unless recommended by a state-qualified physician to treat a medical condition)

Unsafe production conditions

Provides greater flexibility for lawmakers in non-legal states to reform their laws in a manner that reflects the will of the of their constituents and regulates cannabis commerce

Provides the ability for cannabis businesses to obtain basic banking services

Removes industrial hemp from the Controlled Substances Act

NORML Political Director Justin Strekal said:

“With the announcement of The STATES Act by Senators Gardner and Warren, the movement to end the federal government’s failed policy of cannabis criminalization has truly become a bipartisan effort.”

“The majority of states now regulate marijuana use and more than six out of ten voters endorse legalizing the plant’s use by adults, making it time for the federal government to no longer stand in the way of this progress at the state level.”

Never in modern history has there existed greater public support for ending the nation’s nearly century-long experiment with marijuana prohibition. The continued criminalization of adult marijuana use is out-of-step with the views of adults throughout America, 93% of whom support medical marijuana (Quinnipiac, 2017) and 64 percent of whom endorse the outright legalization of recreational cannabis (Gallup, 2017).

The STATES Act is cosponsored in the Senate by Senators Catherine Cortez Masto (D-Nev.), Rand Paul (R-Ky.), Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), and Cory Booker (D-N.J.). It is cosponsored in the House by Representatives Carlos Curbelo (R-Fla.), Jared Polis (D-Colo.), Ken Buck (R-Colo.), Barbara Lee (D-Calif.), Walter Jones (R-N.C.), Dianna DeGette (D-Calif.), Rob Blum (R-Iowa), Steve Cohen (D-Tenn.), Matt Geatz (R-Fla.), Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-D.C.), Tom McClintock (R-Calif.), Luis Correa (D-Calif.), Jason Lewis (R-Minn.), and Ro Khanna (D-Calif.).

“Outdated federal marijuana laws have perpetuated our broken criminal justice system, created barriers to research, and hindered economic development,” said Senator Warren. “States like Massachusetts have put a lot of work into implementing common sense marijuana regulations – and they have the right to enforce their own marijuana policies. The federal government needs to get out of the business of outlawing marijuana.”

“In 2012, Coloradans legalized marijuana at the ballot box and the state created an apparatus to regulate the legal marijuana industry. But because of the one-size-fits-all federal prohibition, state decisions like this put Colorado and other states at odds with the federal government,” said Senator Gardner. “The federal government is closing its eyes and plugging its ears while 46 states have acted. The bipartisan STATES Act fixes this problem once and for all by taking a states’ rights approach to the legal marijuana question. The bipartisan, commonsense bill ensures the federal government will respect the will of the voters – whether that is legalization or prohibition – and not interfere in any states’ legal marijuana industry.”

“We should trust the people of the states, like Ohio, who have voted to implement responsible common-sense regulations and requirements for the use, production, and sale of cannabis,” said Representative Joyce. “If the people of these states have decided to provide help for those veterans and others suffering from pain and other health issues, we should allow them access without government interference.”

“For too long the senseless prohibition of marijuana has devastated communities, disproportionately impacting poor Americans and communities of color. Not to mention, it’s also wasted resources and stifled critical medical research,” said Representative Blumenauer. “It’s past time to put the power back in the hands of the people. Congress must right this wrong.”

Thirty states, Washington, DC and the US territories of Guam and Puerto Rico have enacted legislation specific to the physician-authorized use of cannabis, while an estimated 63 million Americans now reside in jurisdictions where anyone over the age of 21 may possess cannabis legally. Voters overwhelmingly support these policy changes. According to a 2018 Quinnipiac University poll, 63 percent of Americans support full marijuana legalization and 70 percent believe that states, not the federal government, should set marijuana policy.

NORML has released a letter with over 55 supportive organizations for The STATES Act.

To date, these statewide regulatory programs are operating largely as voters and politicians intended. The enactment of these policies have not negatively impacted workplace safety, crime rates, traffic safety, or youth use patterns. They have stimulated economic development and created hundreds of millions of dollars in new tax revenue. Specifically, a 2017 report estimates that over 149,000 Americans are now working full-time in the cannabis industry. Tax revenues from states like Colorado, Oregon, and Washington now exceed initial projections. Further, numerous studies have identified an association between cannabis access and lower rates of opioid use, abuse, hospitalizations, and mortality.
