I like listening to music while I play Stardew Valley and Shane's 10 heart event paired with Re-Emerging Signs of the Apocalypse by Spanish Love Songs is so fitting it haunts me.

OKAY so this is what @meri47 ask was about

LET ME RAMBLE

I love the blue hair. Love him in any red. The shirt is good. Simple but good fit - 8/10

That hat I have a love hate relationship with - he had it in the Vevo DNCE videos - but with this fit I like it. Also the green sweater is nice. His shaved naked chest gets docked some points though - 6/10

Love it when the man wears any florals. This was the first fit they eliminated on Reddit when he's got worst fits in this fucking collage. - 7/10

We love to see casual Joe just out and about. I love that red shirt/jacket. It's on par with his Carlos mechanic shirt for me. Also something about those pants make me feral. I don't know why - 9/10

PUT MY MAN IN A TUX ITS AN AUTOMATIC 10/10 NO NOTES

The blue shirt from Tour lives rent free in my head. The white tank with the brown pants have me in a chokehold. - 10/10

Baby boy baby. This screams Disney star who dressed themselves. Iykyk. It's giving Ashley Tisdale with the boa. - 2/10

Simple. Good little tease of chest hair. No notes. - 8/10

The denim fits always have me in a chokehold. Absolutely no notes. - 10/10

Hi bald 👋 - 1/10

We love a fruity little scarf. I remember seeing this fit for the first time SO clearly and losing my MIND. I wrote a scene in the original fic about helping him get ready for that event - was it a TCA/KCA? - 10/10

DICKGATE 2023 YOU WILL ALWAYS BE FAMOUS - 100/10 Note to Joe: stop wearing the tightest pants if you know you could potentially get hard on stage because people WILL see

He looks so cozy. Very boyfriend shaped. - 8/10

The hair, the glasses, the chest hair, the colorful jacket the all black underneath 😩 fuck me please - 10/10 with bonus points for the chest hair

Shane Gray 2.0 era love of my life - 9/10

[mermaidsirennikita]

If you have the time and inclination I would absolutely love a list of the best sex scenes you’ve read this year!

For sure!

Managed by Kristen Callihan. I actually just read this one and this scene... lives rent free in my head, as they say. The hero and heroine are platonic friends but staying together while the band he manages is on tour, and he finds her dirty underwear in their shared bathroom... Inhales it... and uses it to jack off. She later finds this underwear (handwashed) underneath his mattress. What makes this scene especially good is that a) he's so uptight and snappish and this is truly deranged behavior b) she starts knocking on the door mid-masturbation which *REALLY* does it for him. If that doesn't seem like ~sex to y'all, there's also a scene where he's fingerfucking her after he comes inside her and starts pushing his cum back in there. That was also nice. (THIS. HERO.)

The Bride Goes Rogue by Joanna Shupe. Obviously, the guided masturbation carriage scene. What makes this scene really really good is that he does not touch himself at all during, and just stares at her like a hungry dog.

Lothaire by Kresley Cole. Like, every sex scene in this book is an absolute banger... The dry humping on the couch when he bites her lip to scare her, is shocked when she grabs the back of his head to kiss him even harder, and completely loses his mind; the scene that goes from him biting and sucking on her finger in a trance like it's his pacifier to like.... straight tittyfucking and light d/s; the "let me give you boundless pleasure because I'm probably gonna have to kill you next week" scene, after which Ellie bursts into tears and he stares at the ceiling trying to convince himself that he doesn't love her; the "Ellie loses her virginity on the couch and it's actually very sweet because he's so nervous about accidentally murdering her" scene, which begins with his knee bouncing with anxiety because he wants her first fucking to be superlative; the blood blowjob/69 -> rough "TELL ME YOU LOVE ME" sex (she does not tell him), which is also, despite being written on the page, somehow the loudest sex scene ever, RIP for his neighbors.

Lead by Kylie Scott. I really love the "let's fuck on my kitchen table to get it out of our systems" scene, but I really really love the scene where Jimmy and Lena have SUPER INTIMATE MISSIONARY KISSING SEX and he's never had that kind of sex before and it's verrrrrrry intense.

Of Visions and Secrets by Kathryn Ann Kingsley. The hero is possessed by an evil monster thing that takes over him and kills when people scream, so he's very specifically like "I am going to fuck you on my desk now, DO NOT SCREAM" and when she does start to scream, he gags her with his bowtie. Great choice.

Heated Rivalry by Rachel Reid. The scene where Ilya wins MVP or whatever so he makes Shane edge himself in front of him while Ilya sits there, fully clothed, drinking vodka, super cool, calm, and collected, UNTIL HE ISN'T and he has to go over there and fuck him IMMEDIATELY. And they're in a penthouse where nobody can hear them so they're finally able to be as loud and wild as they've always wanted to be.

The Long Game by Rachel Reid. This is the sequel to Heated Rivalry but I'm doing it anywaaaay because the scene where Ilya fucks Shane in his trophy room??? To hype him up about all his accomplishments??? And afterwards they're like "that got weird"? It was so soft and couple-y????

MacRieve by Kresley Cole. The "pump her full of cum with positive vibes or she'll LITERALLY DIE" scene. The heroine is a succubus, and has to receive semen to live, that's just the facts. The hero has a lot of succubus-related trauma and so while they had enjoyable sex (eventually) his feelings of self-loathing and resentment basically affected the... product quality. So she got SICK. And was DYING. And he took her to her succubus relatives and they were like she needs POSITIVE VIBES CUM and YOU CAN'T GIVE HER THAT so don't worry, we have TRAINED HEALERS who CAN. And, being a Kresley Cole werewolf (whose primary drive is to Guard and Protect the Pussy and Satisfy It), he basically short circuited and was like OH I'M GONNA GIVE HER ALL THE POSITIVE VIBES. Glorious. Chef's kiss. So glad I read this novel.

Lady Isabella's Scandalous Marriage by Jennifer Ashley. Hero and heroine are separated marrieds having breakfast together, and they basically start teasing each other. I think he's all "haha I have food on my thumb bet you won't lick it off" and she's like "oh put it on your dick and see what I'll do then asshole" and he is SHAKEN. Anyway, devolves into a lot of oral sex at the breakfast table.

When the Duke Was Wicked by Lorraine Heath. Hero licks rum off the heroine's pussy in his office, I've discussed this one a lot and I still love it. I think my favorite part is when they're in the carriage on the way home after and he's thinking to himself like "well that escalated quickly; that got really out of hand".

Preferential Treatment by Heather Guerre. It's a tie between when the heroine reverse cowgirl'd the hero in his chair while they played chess and he had to keep from coming until she said he could (they're in a femdom relationship)... or the scene where the heroine spanks the hero for being bad before they have super passionate sex on the floor. Or the scene where they're Facetiming and he has a vibrating cock ring on and she quizzes him on facts about her and every time he gets a question wrong she takes the vibration up a level?

Run, Run Rabbit by C.M. Nascosta. I really enjoy .... all the sex in this book? Though I think the sexiest scene actually isn't a sex scene--it's when the hero, who is a werewolf, can smell that the heroine (also a werewolf) is aroused and leans in and is like "You smell like prey". But there's also a scene later on where she's riding his face and is like "maybe I can smother this asshole with my vagina" and that was great.

Kiss of a Demon King by Kresley Cole. The scene where Rydstrom tied Sabine to a tree and ate her out all night, never letting her come (as revenge for his own edging imprisonment lmao). Made funnier when she has a meltdown the next day and is like "AND MY BOOBS ARE ALL RED AND SCRATCHY BECAUSE YOU JUST WENT TO TOWN ON THEM ALL LAST NIGHT" and he's like ".... my bad".

When the Earl Met His Match by Stacy Reid. Hero and heroine have really passionate sex after their marriage hits the rocks re: many issues, and she says I love you for the first time when she comes and it's like.... oops.

The Hawk by Monica McCarty. Hero and heroine are on a raft that's getting rocked by a storm, and in order to distract her he naturally starts having sex with her, and the waves literally enhance his stroke game. Iconic.

Dark Needs at Night's Edge by Kresley Cole. Conrad and Neomi's first time was so good--in part because he was like, a 300+ year old virgin, and in part because there was such a great buildup to them being able to touch, let alone have sex. Also, like, every sex scene with this pairing is him being on the brink of mindless madness and Neomi being like "WHOOOOAAAA BESSIE" and I love that. So much.

A Caribbean Heiress in Paris by Adriana Herrera. The fingerbanging scene on the Eiffel Tower. It's LIT!

The Duke I Tempted by Scarlett Peckham. The big femdom sex scene in the book is so good. Not only because we rarely see femdom in historicals, but because it's such a beautiful moment wherein the hero is finally truly himself with the heroine, and she unlocks an aspect of herself she hadn't really been able to access before. Also, bondage.

Forbidden by Elizabeth Lowell. There's a scene (hint o' femdom, I'd say) where the hero and heroine have really fallen out, and he's being such a cold dick to her, and refuses to touch her. So she starts touching him all over while he tries not to react (and fails). It's again, a surprisingly femdom-coded scene for a 90s historical, and I really loved his gradual caving to her.... ministrations.

How to Steal A Scoundrel's Heart by Vivienne Lorret. Hero and heroine both think she's not a virgin, so during their first time he sticks it in kinda abruptly. They both immediately realize that she was wrong and she just didn't understand what losing your virginity constitutes lmao. So he pulls out and slowly starts over, beginning by eating her out. And he licks the virgin's blood~ (which also occurs in Lothaire, as I realized a few weeks ago).

A Week to Be Wicked by Tessa Dare. Everyone loves the dry humping through a sheet scene, and they love it for a reason.

A Lady for a Duke by Alexis Hall. The (trans) heroine tops the hero in their first sex scene, and I believe it's the first time she's had sex ever--certainly since she transitioned. It's a really lovely, vulnerable scene, and I found it to be super well done.

Heartbreaker by Sarah MacLean. The first time Clayborn goes down on Adelaide and realizes that she has a praise kink... So he proceeds to praise her super hard.

Fuck! Forgot these:

Bound to the Battle God by Ruby Dixon. Heroine eats this super juicy piece of fruit while the hero eats her out. Very much a memory maker.

Sworn to the Shadow God by Ruby Dixon. Heroine and hero start making out but she pumps the breaks and tells him she’s on her period. He’s like “I am the god of death, blood doesn’t concern me” and fingers her anyway.

Wed to the Wild God by Ruby Dixon. Heroine pegs the god of the wild and he comes so hard that a giant acorn falls from the tree above and hits her in the head mid-stroke.

[lady-raziel]

Lady Raz is a Pokémon fan, AND a Shane and Ryan Watcherite too?? As well as one of THE Markiplier content peoples on the Internetz?? I am in awe once again!!

What is your favourite Buzzfeed Unsolved episode?

I also want that [REDACTED] X Shane and Ryan Ghost Hunting crossover. (You know the episode)

I've been saying that for two years now! 😊 love your content, Raz!!

The DB Cooper episode lives in my mind rent-free and I too will literally kill someone to get that ghost hunting crossover

(And thank you :DDD)

[pomegranate]

Shane utterances that live in my mind rent free

[puthyflapps]

Right? Shane’s always drawn to girls like Carmen (Kehlani, Lena) for a REASON. She’s told a few people “you remind me of someone”. Carmen living in her mind rent free twenty years later. But tell me why her and Kehlani had more sexual tension in 1 mind then Shane has had all of Gen q

Carmen lives in my mind rent free too. So me and Shane have that in common 😌

Me and you are sharing one brain right now bc tell me why my first thot after seeing kehlani tell Shane she can’t come in the back room was that they had more chemistry together than Shane and Tess 👁️🫣

🥰 Your comfort fics that you can re-read several times and still love them?

[Sounds of rustling and things cluttering]

Let me list them first because they're various fandoms, all of them are in my AO3 bookmark (some are stored as an open tab on my phone still to this day!):

underneath the braided sky by gwalchca

This one is 킹덤 | Kingdom (TV 2019) fanfiction! One shot light read. Hit the emotional aspect way harder than I expected. I remember staying up late til 4 in the morning because I kept re-reading the thing.

I'm clean out of air in my lungs by StrikerEureka

Buzzfeed Unsolved slash! I read this around... 2 - 3 years ago? Back when I was obsessed with Demon Shane so bad. It's really well-written, and by well-written I mean it successfully inspired and motivated me to write a fic for different fandom. THE SPOOK GOT ME GOOD! I still remember the thrill tbh.

It has continuation, and here's the link to the entire series called Precious Metal!

Matchmaker, Matchmaker by prosodiical

I think this fic got me obsessed with 5+1 Thing kind of fics without me realizing at first? It's Newt Scamander/Original Percival Graves slash fic. It's really sweet and funny, never failed to bring a stupid grin to my face whenever I randomly think about it tbh.

Basic Instincts by manic_intent

OKAY, tbh I'm very picky with ABO tropes, but this one has Non-Traditional Alpha/Beta/Omega Dynamics tag, and I thought. Heh, why not?

Turned out, it's really good. And really hot as well wtf. Lives inside my head rent free. I also read a couple of other fics written by the same author because the author is just. SO SKILLFUL.

All of NanaGo (呪術廻戦 | Jujutsu Kaisen) fics written by AO3 user Newlight tbh

The entire list of Moon Knight System fics that I made the other day (here)

This list of my favorite Frank Castle/Matt Murdock fics (including the ones on the reply!)

That's all for now I guess.... sorry for listing so many 😂😂😂

🍭 Favorite fic trope?

GIVE ME SLOW BURN AND FOUND FAMILY OR GIVE ME *DEATH*

🥣 Least favorite fic trope?

Already answered here! :D

Alright, maybe this one isn't exactly "the least favorite", but I get disinterested so quickly with fast-paced romance. Yes, even for my own favorite pairings tbh.... things have to be BUILT. SLOWLY. FIRST.

🪠 Weirdest fic you ever read?

Oh God. I wanted so bad to get rid of this out of my goddamn mind, but, like, last year someone talked about a slash fic between Gojo Satoru and A TOILET.

A SLASH FIC. CRACK TREATED VERY SERIOUSLY.

I need to get brainwashed after remembering it again.

i think we’ve set the stage here enough, you’re a cab driver.

watcher: are you scared?; 2.04

[satiricaily]

sometimes i go through the day normally until i remember shane indicating that a user beefbby is related to ryan, because he's beefy, only for ryan to say 'it's not my child.'

[homerforsure]

i saw there was some talking about your whumptober and i started following you becouse of it and holy shit it was amazing , half of the prompts that left with cliff live rent free in my mind and pop time to time , on the top of my head i can think of the arsonist one, the survival and the one with car chase

Aaaah my evil arsonist. @mellaithwen you're not alone in your Shane fixation!

And with that, we've hit on the third of the three whumptobers that I think will eventually become full ideas of their own. Hopefully it'll be a productive summer for me fic wise 😅

[bichol]
