Not to contribute to a Discourse, but I keep seeing the "should we ship Alastor or not" thing, and. Like most other things, it lacks nuance.

It is true, many people don't understand how to write him in a relationship without it feeling very weird and very out of character. But this is also true about most popular ships? The voices of the characters are not right, and they keep acting in a way that is too sweet, too romantic, and the actual dynamic that made that ship interesting in the first place is missing. "He would not fucking say that" is such a popular phrase for a reason.

In Alastor's case, his asexuality is one of the major things that fanfic authors get wrong. Another is his moral grayness, his difficulties expressing (or even noticing) his emotions, and, at least in the Alastor/Lucifer ship (which is what I have been reading) the antagonism of the canon relationship and how they would navigate it with their absurd fight for dominance. And yes, these are definitely problems.

But, as someone who has been bingeing these fics faster than the tag is moving, these are only some of the fics.

And every popular ship has got a lot of bad writing in it.

The good fics, despite being shippy and more often than not, smutty, all acknowledge Alastor's asexuality in some way. It depends on that author, how, but I have seen him confused about this new situation, participating in sex for his own reasons like manipulation and enjoying having control, I have seen what in other fics would be sexual desire replaced with hunger for blood, hunger for power, or desire for closeness, I have seen asexual and aspec authors use him to talk about their own experiences with being sexualized against their will, or to explore what they would and would not be comfortable with doing. I have seen Alastor look for and find ways around his discomforts, using magic and staying clothed and making sure that he is in control.

So I don't know. Are people being weird about him? Heck yes. But I feel like fics, even shippy and smutty ones about Alastor are also doing some actual good, representation-wise. I can only speak for myself, but I can say for certain that watching a powerful, asexual character navigate his way around sexuality has filled a need in me that I didn't even realize that I had.

I'm really not wanting to start any fights here, just, you know. Different angle to look at this from.

btw i highly recommend smashing things in a safe and contained manner when you're upset. the instinct to rage and destroy can be sated by the sound of broken glass. find a place and a few objects to shatter, it's good for the soul. i just took a hammer to my ex's bong and i feel so much more normal now. you don't always have to be careful and precious with the world around you, you're allowed to destroy things too, i give you permission. violence can be healing when you're inarticulate with rage :)

Alex has been learning for a while Henry isn’t what he thought, but it’s something else to feel it this close up, the quiet burn in him, the pent-up person under the perfect veneer who tries and pushes and wants.

hehe ghost-turbo haunting felix au

turbo is connected to the last piece of his code in the whole arcade - a trophy he gifted to felix in mid 80s as a symbol of him genuinely caring about their relationships on par with being the best racer. felix also gave him one of his medals and both kept their gifts next to other rewards, but when roadblasters and turbotime were unplugged, the medal was gone with everything else

now, after burning in cola-lava turbo is basically dead, but scraps of his code still were intertwined with the trophy (after all, it was his first winner's cup, but felix never knew about it), giving turbo an opportunity to exist as a shadow incapable of interacting with anything and anyone besides felix, who kept the trophy even after the roadblasters incident

also I went crazy in tags, feel free to check them out

MONSTERFUCKER RAINE WHISPERS TRUTHERS HOW ARE WE FEELING TONIGHT

[drenched-in-sunlight]

saying this as respectfully as possible but. Do not put fandom content creators on a pedestal. We are also just fans contributing to a community just as you are. We have boundary on our own work and that’s it. What I say is not and should not be considered sth the whole fandom should listen to. I’m just a normal ass person ranting about things on my blog. If it does not have a fandom tag for others to engage in, do not make it out to be me trying to start fights or addressing the whole community. Because it’s not.

I’ve said it before and I will say it again, my art, my lore talk, is biased. I’ve never tried to hide that I view Marika a certain way and will always develop my theory following that base assumption.

Aside from translation stuffs and pointing out in-game items, everything else I say you can look at it, agree or disagree, and move on to form your own opinions. Just because I draw stuffs doesn’t mean you get to saddle me with responsibilities about managing fandom expectations. What the hell? I’m a fan artist, I’m the last person who you should look at for “leaderism” (?) WHAT?

I can and will be a hater in my own space, like I know sometimes other artists will just post their stuffs and not engage too heavily with fandom, and for a while I did try to do that here (because I’m already a dramatic ass on twitter), that’s just not me though.

You will get art and you will get my opinions as well.

i couldnt get the roommate!gaz + heater broken situation out of my head. whoops :)

mdni. cw: dubcon, reader is gn but has a vagina and breasts, cat and mouse but the mouse is way too willing to get in bed with the cat

resigning yourself to sleeping in kyle’s room because the heater is still not working and he’s so fucking warm.

totally not because you drip like a fucking faucet when your thick thighs are pressed right against his own muscular ones. you absolutely don’t love the way he groans when you shimmy yourself back into him to make sure you’re maintaining proper skin to skin contact, ass pressing right onto him. him being hard and splitting your cheeks apart with his girth when you’re in bed has nothing to do with this. you dont secretly love when he apologizes and says he’ll just tuck himself down to bother you less, only for his fat cock to end up between your legs.

you don’t constantly think about how gaz hisses and groans when he feels the wetness between your thighs. how he pants while fighting the urge for his hips to twitch and grind into you. the way his body strains taut against you to keep himself in place. or the tight grip he keeps on your hips, fingers playing with the fat there while you whimper at the force.

you certainly never remember how gaz’s restraint always snaps, testing the waters with small thrusts. the choked moan he lets out at the wet sensation of your slick being spread over him as he moves. how he’s so thick that his thick head parts your lips so easily for the rest of him to follow. your eyes screwing shut, panting, when he slides right against your clit. his hands on you keeping you in place so you’re forced to feel him every time. your nipples reacting and hardening, making it easier for him to move a hand and roll one of them between his fingers. you’re so sensitive that you press further into him, whining while you try to run from the sensation.

gaz clicking his tongue at you and chastising you for not staying still. unable to respond to him except with breathy whispers of his name and whines when he bumps your clit again or pulls at your nipples. the empty cold feeling between your legs when he pulls back just a bit further than normal.

the simultaneous gasp and groan you let out when he thrusts his hips forward and his cock catches at your gushing entrance. the absolutely filthy, wet sound it makes when he fills it. the way the sticky wet mess feels around the part of his sensitive head no longer trapped behind his foreskin. he loves to just poke at it, to embalrrass you, how wet you get just being in bed with him. hiding your face at the obscene sounds while you clench around nothing in anticipation.

only to get fed up with his taunting and pressing your hips down, trapping him and pushing him into you. gripping at the sheets because of the intrusion, panting at the sensation of him splitting you open and filling you completely. gaz’s grip bruising your hips at the sensation of how you suck him in, pussy begging him to fill it up.

“not nice love,” he grunts as he grinds his hips into you, “greedy little thing aren’t you?”

you shake your head because of course you’re not greedy! it’s all about the heater. the cold. thats all!

“j-just, oh, just trying to keep all of you warm! i swear”

“oh you’re just being thought, that right sweetheart?” grins into your neck at the breathy yeah you respond with.

“oh you’re so sweet lovie. always so thoughtful about me. should give you a reward for that”

I don't usually do fluff so I decided to try out the alt prompt for the first day! And of course it had to be them like...who else would I draw, they both deserve good things and they both need a hug so bad.
