Eddie is just perfect

Like Eddie would keep a stash of your favorite munchies for after a smoke session knowing you would want something sweet and savory as always.

He would blare Dio and Sabbath with you on 2am rides in his van while you both sing (scream) the lyrics anytime you had the chance. He loved nothing more than the one on one time with you, the empty road and his favorite music.

He would turn down his favorite guitar solo to listen to you rant about what your co worker said to you that made you feel a certain way.

He would tell you how good you would look dressed as your dnd character but that it would be to much for him to handle so maybe don’t do that.

He would tell you crazy stories about anything and everything some times make believe sometimes about his life and views on different subjects, until you fell asleep.

He would look like an innocent child when he first wakes up and immediately smoke with you only to get up and make you bacon and waffles with chocolate chips and sprinkles just cause.

He would always open doors for you calling you m’lady and kissing your hand once you were out of said door.

He would devote songs to you while you sat at the bar on a Thursday night at The Hideout listening to the same songs for the 100th time like it was the first.

He would help you dye your hair and subsequently get it everywhere in a 10 foot radius of the area you were doing it in.

Eddie would take you to get your first tattoo especially after you picked it out from his monster manual sketchs but only after he questioned your confidence in the decision 700 times. Then when you are getting the tattoo he looks more in pain then you do.

This was gonna be an ask but kinda turned into a rant of ideas that I wanted to thank you for because of the fact your writing makes me think of him this way. I mean look at that ✨smile✨💖🦇

oh my god i'm melting. one on one time would be so important to him, and i just know 2 am car rides screaming along to music is his love language. i need it immediately. it would solve 99 of my current issues.

and the hair dying and the first tattoo??? PLEASE. he'd brag to everyone about how badass you are, going on and on about how you didn't even flinch. he'd just be so proud to call you his truly.

GAAHHHH i just really love eddie munson. it's been a year and i'm still not over this man. i mean, like you said, look at that goddamn smile

Happy poetry month! In the spirit of the month, what's your favourite poem? I'm not an avid poetry reader but mine is We Only Want the Earth.

Ooooh I'll have to check that one out, I don't think I've read it!

Hmmm as for favorite poem, there's a few I throw out as my top poem with frequency, but here I've got to say The Bridge by C. Dale Young. I just adore its positivity and the way it isn't afraid to be in love with the small details of life. That's just a feeling I relate with so much in my life and the whole poem is SUCH a vibe. Think I called it my idea of the world's greatest love poem in an essay once (which is def A Claim which idk if I'd fully back up now but the vibes are there) because it isn't just a poem about being in love with someone, it's loving everything they do and everything around you and loving just the world as a whole and how you see it everyday. Its such a vibe fr

Just- THIS !!!! ^^^^^^

I finished the first season of Veronica Mars! And decided to stop after a couple of episodes of season 2. Idk, I guess I got tired of the lack of closure for many plot lines. The finale was interesting tho, I loved the final villain.

Share your thoughts on the show (here's supposed to be a question mark but tumblr wouldn't let me)

Hi bestie I'm sorry it's taken me so long to talk to you about this show! I'm gonna make up for taking forever by writing like, an essay haha brace yourself

I think that Veronica Mars is a good show that runs into some classic 2000s tv stumbling blocks, manages to do some things that infuriate me personally beyond reason, but ALSO manages to have some elements that are so powerful and so well executed that I'm honestly astonished it got made. These kinda peter out and become muddled over the years, but oh well, we'll always have season one <3

In brief, the 2000s messiness, in varying degrees of offensiveness to the world and to me personally:

The aforementioned plot lines that go nowhere <3

It's case-of-the-week, some cases are gonna suck! What can you do lol

The black best friend who doesn't ever really get any satisfying arcs or attention given to him as a character who contributes beyond letting our protagonist have dialogue with him rather than exclusively monologuing in voiceover

How they handle race in general ofc. Like while I think that in the actual plots of the show there are good intentions (and sometimes good material!) in depicting the racism of this insular hiarchical society, racism in the real world affects the writing by giving the characters of color very little to do, and over all they are taken less seriously by the narrative.

Veronica's rape plot line. I actually think this plot started out very strong! But the minute the show focuses directly on it the writing gets lost in the weeds of plot twists and rival love interests, and I really think the points they were originally trying to make get buried.

Deadbeat Mom ran off she's got a single dad raising her (i feel like the number of single dads in media is exponentially larger than the real number of single dads in life. it's propaganda. and its misogynistic. but I digress)

The stuff I personally hate:

The romances :) lol. lmao, even. (I would love to rant about this but I really think that's not something that deserves to be on what is currently a measured review of the show as a whole)

The stuff that's great:

The noir homage: It's just. It's so good. It's so fucking good. This is to noir detective stories what american vandal will be to true crime 20 years later. I want to give whoever first thought "hey, being an ostracized teen girl is kinda like being a hardboiled noir detective," a raise and a kiss MWAH <3 A+ for tone! Veronica lives on the edges of her society (high school), allowing her to see all of it's pieces and hypocrisy, turning her cynical and aloof. And she's a teenager who solves crimes :D She's funny and self aware of her role, but never in such a way that it feels like lampshading or winking at the audience. They take it seriously--they take HER seriously, and that makes the show work.

Lilly: The central case of the show, the murder of Veronica's best friend and Veronica's revenge-driven mission to find her killer, is where the first season gets its power. Veronica gets to have the noir detective plot line of being haunted by the death of a woman she loved and driven by revenge, and it is so much more powerful here than I've ever seen it in its original form. Lilly is a tragedy, she is an unflinching look at the sexual exploitation of teenage girls and the casualness with which violent men will turn that violence on them, she is a messy bratty bitch of a sixteen year old, and Veronica loves her. Lilly gets to be complicated because Veronica, who knew her and loves her, is telling us her story. There are a lot of people who are affected by Lilly's death, but this show is about Veronica, and her reaction to the murder of her friend is what matters to the writers and the viewers. Once again, the show takes Veronica (and her grief and her rage and her love) seriously, and there is a lot of power in that. I think the reason the later seasons struggle is because they simply can't stand up to the emotional intensity that made up the core of season one.

Would you rather have your first kiss with Cody or Rex? Also I hope you have a great day ❤️☺️

Oh damnn this is a toughie. It's like asking me to pick between puppies and kittens. They're both so great in their own way-😭

Ok ok, let's give it a go

ramble under the cut

Now I would usually go for Rex, no questions asked I mean c'mon, he's Rex- However, if we're talking in the context of a first kiss...

I'm gonna have to go with Cody :0 betrayal

I know i know, I'm sorry, but I can explain! As a shy and insecure person by nature, I tend to stand back and let the more experienced people take the lead, y'know show me how things are done first, before I feel confident enough to do it myself. And I think Cody would be the best choice for that.

Rex would too, don't get me wrong. But he would probably be more prone to letting my nervousness rub off on him. It might make him feel like he isn't doing good enough, or that I wasn't enjoying it as much as him which wouldn't be true but anyway And, in that case, he could even need some reassurance of his own.

Cody, however. Cody is good and he knows it. He would have no problem taking charge, in fact I think he would thoroughly enjoy it maybe a little too much So it would be a win win for both of us. Also, Cody doesn't hold back, he'll go all in. He'd be the kind of guy to grab your ass while you guys are kissing, even if it is the first time, he doesn't give a fuck.

He's all or nothing and I like that.

come clean - yancy x amab!reader

this one goes out to @weirdlyhornyforegos!

happy birthday, w, i hope you have an amazing day! i haven't shown our little jailbird some love yet and figured this would be a nice treat :3

warning(s): nsfw, voyeurism, oral (reader giving), orgasm denial

Is that…?

You pause in the hallway just outside of the cell you share with Yancy, tilting your head as you try to place the sound you just heard. There’s the sound of other inmates in the distance, what sounds like the beginnings of an argument between a guard and an inmate and then—

Moaning.

You flush, a little embarrassed both for yourself and Yancy, and it’s not like you hadn’t taken a little time for yourself—especially after meeting him, your eyes inexplicably drawn to the interesting lines of his tattoos over his muscled arms, the cute curl of his hair—but it had been a while since the last time and hearing this was not helping.

You should go. You were coming back to see if Yancy wanted to tag along for a game of basketball with the others and since he was obviously busy, he should definitely just…

“Nnh—f-fuck, boss…”

You need to go.

“Hah, shit, baby, you look so g-good—fuck!”

You need to leave, now.

But…

You were a little…curious. You’d caught Yancy eyeing you from time to time, obviously when he thought you weren’t looking, and the few times that your eyes met, there was this tension. Either you or he would break eye contact the second it started to build, so nothing ever came of it, but it was there. He clearly liked you—shit, he liked you well enough to jack off to fantasies about you while you were gone, in a cell that both of you shared—and you…

Fuck it, you kinda wanted to watch. You could always apologize later, right? He’d forgive you… probably.

You stepped carefully towards the edge cell, glad that you'd come from the left entrance and were effectively in a blind spot from the view of the bunk bed. Ears hot and an even hotter feeling beginning to pool in your gut as your own cock filled out in your pants, you peek around the corner slowly.

He's on your bunk.

You bite down on a groan, watching Yancy grind against—fuck, yup, that was one of your pillows, he was rubbing precum into your fucking pillowcase, why was this turning you on—your bed and you glance down the hall, finding it empty as the distant fight gets a tad louder.

The guards were probably handling that. Which meant there wouldn't be anyone coming this way for a little while...

"Shhh-shit, baby, please, please lemme cum in your mouth, wanna w-watch it drip on ya face—fuck!”

God, you never would've pegged Yancy to be so...

Desperate.

Licking your lips, you moved to lean against the bars of the cell as Yancy started to stroke himself faster, getting close to his end.

"If you cum in my mouth, how're you gonna get it on my face, Yance?" you call out to him and can’t help but grin a little as he jerks at the sound of your voice, flipping around and hiding himself away beneath a pillow in one quick motion. The same pillow he was grinding against, you notice, and your smile grows a bit meaner.

He doesn’t get to his feet and won’t quite meet your eyes either. “Y/N! Shit, I thought youse was busy w-with, w-with uh, Tiny and ‘em…”

“Uh-huh. Busy.”

“Ay, don’t gimme that look, I thought I had more t-time…” Yancy trails off as you step into the cell, making sure to let the door fall closed quietly behind you. Wouldn’t want anyone to come back too early, after all. “You ain’t mad, right, boss? Fuck, this is your bed, I’m sor—”

He moves to get up and you step close enough to shove him back down, tossing your pillow to the side as well. “I’m not mad at you, Yancy,” you whisper and relish in the little moan Yancy makes when you drop to your knees, reaching over to tease at the wet fabric of his prison joggers over his cock. You thumb against the slit of his cock and smile, enjoying the way he seemed to be so quiet now that you were here.

“You were saying something about cumming in my mouth earlier…”

Yancy groans, throwing his head back as his hips start to rock up into your touch, still teasing him through his pants. “G-god, ya gonna kill me wit’ that look, boss, shit,” he pants and when he glances back at you, you dip your head to suck at his cock through the fabric, a slight tang against your tongue. “Fff—fuckin’ shit, baby, stop, stop, stop I don’t wanna—”

“I thought you wanted to cum in my mouth? Or was it on my face?”

“N-not, not yet,” he reaches down as if to put a hand in your hair and you let him with a little grin, going along with it when he eases your head back to catch his breath. “Don’t wanna cum yet.”

While he recovers, you tug his pants down a little, just enough for his cock to get free. He’s a mess, the length of him covered in shiny precum and your mouth waters a little at the sight.

“You get really wet, huh, Yance?” you murmur, wrapping your hand around the width of him and stroke upwards slowly, the slide of it made easy by Yancy’s precum. “It’s cute.”

“Sh-shut u—uhfuck—!”

You were going to get a bit of an ego with how Yancy was reacting to your touch, and now your mouth enveloping his cock, burying the wet length in the warmth of your mouth. Part of you was even starting to enjoy the taste of him—shit, hope this doesn’t awaken anything in me.

You reach down to your joggers to palm at your own cock as Yancy’s brushes against the back of your throat, the two of you moaning in unison when his hips jerk forward, just enough to choke you a little.

“Hah, boss, you look so fuckin’ good down there, shit, I don’t wanna cum yet, I don’t—” Yancy begs and—yeah, you really liked the sound of him like this—you ease off of him, his cock sliding out with a low, wet noise. He squirms again, the motion looking similar to how he looked when he was about to come earlier and you can’t have that.

You slide your hand down to the base of his cock and squeeze, just hard enough to suppress what was very likely his orgasm. His cock pulses under your touch and you let him go after you're sure he won’t come on your face—there was time for that next time, you wanted him in your mouth—instead reaching down to shove the hem of your joggers and underwear just beneath your balls, your cock now out for you to stroke freely. You’ve hardly touched yourself since you first heard him moaning so you go slow and press your forehead against Yancy’s thigh.

“Are you edging yourself, baby?” you ask, a little enraptured at the sight of him denying himself, one of his hands gripping at the bars of the top bunk while the other spasmed against his side. “Don’t you want to cum down my throat?”

“Sh-shit, don’ talk like that, boss, ‘m barely holdin’ on right now,” Yancy gasps and you lean up to lick at the underside of his shaft, smirking when he grunts, the hand at his side flying out to hold your head back, his fingers tangling tight in your hair. “D-Don’t.”

You smile.

“Make me, pretty boy.”

i really love your lbfad posts, You really Get the characters. I'm so fond of the mortal arc in particular because it shows the characters being able to goof off and have some silly fun. It's wild but I once saw someone get through the entire mortal arc of the show and somehow come to the conclusion dfqc is just awful and abusive? Truly bizzare takes on the wider internet.

Aw, I'm glad you enjoy my posts- I appreciate knowing 💗 but yeah the wider internet can be Very interesting.... I think one of the first things I saw outside tumblr about the show was a decent review that I was enjoying reading up until the point when the author just started in on how terrible and annoying Xiao Lanhua was and how she only watched the show in spite of her and I was just ??????? like at the end of the day we are all entitled to our own opinions and feelings but there's a lot of opinions and feelings I do not agree with <3 to put it nicely <3

OH EASY BC ITS A SCENE THAT STICKS WITH ME TO THIS DAY. "Sebastian doesn't know. Sebastian doesn't know. Sebastian doesn't know."

OH OKAY !!!!

No but I literally had to go back to find what scene this actually was because I FORGOT and seriously how cool is it that something that has apparently stuck with you so much is something that wasn't even really on my radar?? (I did go back and reread the whole chapter though and like yeah I get it. Great scene if I do say so myself lmao)

ANYWAY thank you so much!! That really is the "oh" moment of that fic so truly an excellent choice imo 💙

Send me one line from something I’ve written that really stood out to you or lingered with you :)

[coquelicoq]

very delightful to follow you postings on the count of monte christo. but what is this about parts of the novel being cut in the translation?

je suis contente que tu les apprecies, comme ce n'est que grâce à toi que je possède cet exemplaire! mille mercis de me l'avoir envoyé <3

the version that i originally read as a kid (and then reread last year) is not just an english translation but also an abridgment: the lowell bair 1956 translation, which is about 950 pages shorter than the french original. even though english versions of french works are generally shorter because of syntax, word length, and general literary conventions, that only accounts for a little bit of the page discrepancy here lol.

dumas tends to rephrase the same thing several times, so a lot of the abridging is just condensing that stuff down to a single sentence. but on top of that, several sideplots also had to go, malheuresement. well, heureusement in some cases (i was bored to near tears by the lengthy description of hashish), but it also means that he cut out an entire chapter between villefort and his dad 😢 and removed pretty much everything that makes franz an interesting character. but c'est la vie when you're abridging! something's gotta go. getting rid of franz's adventures did allow him to cut like 100 pages in one fell swoop, which i can see the appeal of when you're trying to shorten 1400 pages to a third of that length.

there's no excuse for cutting the villefort-noirtier chapter though. i'm never getting over that.

[mar-bluu]

Anyways don’t mind me re-uploading this incoherent ramble about that magic/fantasy/gang au from like almost 2 years ago, the link to the previous upload doesn’t work anymore

and who knows, maybe this’ll get me back into writing the rest of the 10 chapters i had planned out for this?

Powers:

People with powers are very common, they are usually born with them but can develop later in life. Kids usually take on the power/s of their parents, (e.g. a pyrokinetic and a hydrokinetic have a child, that child will have both powers though one power will develop stronger).

However, people can learn a different power by training with someone else. They will take a while to actually develop, and it can take months or even years for trained-in powers to even start to work/appear.

Powers will ‘lock in’ by 21 though they can grow stronger, they cannot change. People can permanently have two powers (occasionally three but that’s incredibly rare) but they either won’t be as strong compared to if they had just focused on the one, or one will be stronger than the other.

Elemental magic is by far the most common and some of the most powerful (meaning the ‘main’ elements i.e water, earth, fire air). Hydrokinesis is the most common, followed by pyrokinesis, then aerokinesis, with geokinesis being the rarest, taking the longest time to control properly. (other ‘elemental’ powers are branches of the others; Ferrokinesis-earth, cryokinesis- water etc.)

Powers such as invisibility, shapeshifting, revivals, and time/interdimensional travel being the rarest and often the most taxing, not unknown for the occasional death.

There tends to be large influxes/groups of people with the same powers. This can be because of families and genetic similarities in the area, environmental factors, or because people learn from each other.

Key:

(name)- Most important/main character (appearing in fics or possibly larger  chaptered story)

(name)- Secondary important/ main character

(name)- Won’t appear the most but does have relevance to the (possible)  larger chaptered story

 Characters*:

- this is a brief and fairly basic summary of some of the important characters and their powers, think of it like a list you can go back to if/when you see a character and are like ‘who the fuck are they again??’

*NOTE: These are just the ‘main’/canon characters, and a few others that may be important if I can find the energy/time to do a multi chapter thing (I’ve had to make up so many other filler characters to pad each gang, e.g. ‘Zip’ so I’ll be excluding a LOT of them 'cause they don’t really matter lol)

A random fic ask for you! How do you come up with your fic titles?

yoooo... wait actually how do i do that?

sometimes the title comes from the, like, vibe of the whole thing? or it's a reference to something related that ties into the general atmosphere i want - vesper is the latin name for the evening star (as opposed to lucifer's morning star) , soft focus is a photography term, wonderland is referencing a fantastical tea party, etc etc

a lot of the time, my titles are also quotes from stuff thar i think is especially relevant or holds a particular significance to the plot - and i think we could be here all day if i tried to list them all!

a few choice ones: rebel flesh is from a doctor who episode about killer clones, one more paradox is from a very sad episode (also of doctor who) about impossibilities and the loss of the people you love, get in, loser! is from the bit where they go shopping in mean girls, thy fair imperfect shade is from shakespeare's sonnet 43 about day and night (more specifically the recipient brightening the speaker's dreams), green umbrella trees is from a p!atd song about the sun and the moon falling in love, all of the titles from LOVE HEART are real phrases you might find in a packet of conversation hearts - and of course there's to the egress!, where all of the titles are lyrics from the songs that inspire them!

(except, bizarrely, the name "to the egress", which i think is only said once in a line of dialogue and written on a prop sign during the museum song lmao)

and the final category: titles that are not really in reference to something, but that are just short phrases that i think make sense and summarise a key theme of the fic - take a sip, net zero, ivory tower, forty winks... most tend to be sayings or turns of phrase in their own right that i just reappropriate for my own purposes lmao
