Ive been thinking about the symbolism.. oh my god. I am not a tarot expert by any means but I have recently been making an effort to actually learn the cards and what they represent. In my understanding one interpretation of The Devil card can be that something is holding you back from being your truest self. in addition to feeling trapped and also feelings of obsession (phans?)

i want to take this and do some serious analysis of them in relation to the card but id have to do more research and also remember how to write a coherent sentence. also if anyone knows tarot better than me feel free to tell me im wrong :/ - melapple

Thank you @melapple for bringing this point up as well!!

It's so cool that you're getting into Tarot!! And yes you're absolutely right, and this is connected to the symbolism of pleasure/desire/hedonism with the devil card. It also stands for the "prison of the flesh" as it were, focus on wordly desires, pleasures, and yes, addictions. Something that traps you in the world of pleasure for the sake of pleasure (hence the satanic doctrine of indulgence as opposed to abstinence). Seeing it as a symbol of obsession I'd a great way to look at it! And with the whole "they tried to stop us" thing, fighting tooth and nail to get what you want, the way the ritualistic imagery will also draw your attention towards the mortal body: the blood, the heart. Fun fact! In certain satanic rituals (think invocations associated with the Church of Satan, and I am not at all endorsing these organisations I've just engaged with their literature) they try to create an atmosphere of pleasure and indulgence during the ritual, encouraging taking substances that bring you pleasure, and even indulging in lustful activities as part of the ritual.

Back to the card though, you can absolutely look at the video through the lens of what that image means in terms of the Prison of the Flesh and the tyranny of obsession, whether you read it in the conservative "pleasure is evil" way or the subversive "pleasure is liberating" way!

Did they have lots of friends as a child? Did they keep any of their childhood friends into adulthood?

Super detailed questions about your OCs

Colton was considered a pretty easygoing kid growing up. He participated in his fair share of mischief and squabbles among others, but overall, he was a fairly calm, likeable person.

He was curious, and kind...never very outspoken, but always the first to stand up for others when they, themselves couldn't. Most of his friends were the kids most others would avoid on the play ground, for one reason or another. It's how he made most of his friends, actually — Colton easily being considered a bit of an ODDBALL himself when he was younger.

He was always bigger and taller than the others his age. His interests were never lined up with his peers and his thoughts and actions resembled those grades ahead of him...it shocked most, usually, after they find out just how YOUNG he was. It was partially due to him growing up on the farm, and having to take care of his mother at such a young age since his father was never around — just another thing that separated him from the other kids his own age. To have the responsibility of LIFE sit upon such young shoulders...

— you either adapt and grow up fast or end up CRUSHED by the weight of it all. And for the farm, for his mother, he had no other choice.

That separation was his introduction into the crowd of misfits and outliers he'd later call his FRIENDS. But they were usually few and far in between.

He really only had a few that stuck around through the years — one he remembers, her name was ISABELLA. But she'd let him call her Bella, after an incident in second grade where he was the only one to stop and help her with her tray after she'd tripped and fell in the lunch room one day. She'd end up gravitating towards him a bit after that — an outsider would even say she might've liked him, to which Colton wouldn't argue. He's old enough now to admit that he maybe even liked her too. They'd stick together through the years, at least until around fifth grade, when her parent's up and moved. He hasn't seen or spoken to her since. ( If he'd take the time to look into it, he'd find it was due to her father joining the ranks of a freshly founded Overwatch. )

Outside of that, friendships would typically come and go.

He was homeschooled after moving to Texas — it was just easier on everyone at the time, but it made things like making friends DIFFICULT. Namely because he hardly left the property unless it was to go to market or stock up on groceries — at least until a few months in when it came time to refill his mother's prescriptions.

He'd cause a ruckus at the pharmacy, after the clerk rightfully refused to give the 11 year old with no ID her script. And, after literally getting kicked to the curb by security, a bystander he'd get to know as MIRA ( @buscarparamivida ) helped him to his feet. They'd become close friends — Mira toting along her younger brother Teo and older half-brother Arman, they'd all grow almost inseparable as they banded together to keep the farm running and Colton's mother in decent health. They'd stand by his side through it all, thick and thin, even after his mother passed and Colton completely immersed himself into the Deadlock Gang.

They all meet up again from time to time throughout his life, from his time with the gang, blackwatch, and even after assuming his position as Commander. While he'd argue they're definitely more so FAMILY, they're really the only friendships he's been able to sustain from his childhood.

Happy Wetnessday 💦

I hope you're ok and having a good day. I also hope that it cooled down where you are.

Well you're certainly cooled down when you wake up next to a stranger, naked with a heavy diamond on your finger. You don't remember how you ended up here. All you wanted was to take your mind off for an evening for which the newly opened club seemed to be perfect for. You're trying to slip out of the bed to leave but a strong arm pulls you right back. "Where is my wife off to so early in the morning?" His sleep filled voice rumbles. Wife? You don't remember anything! But don't you worry your husband is more than happy to provide you with what's missing. The first thing that's missing is his dick inside you. Once that's settled he's telling you about how you danced in your pretty little dress, how you had too much to drink and how your pout was so cute when you told him you don't want to work anymore. You just wanted to be a trophy wife. And who was he to deny your wish? He pulled a few strings and got you two married within an hour.

Which hottie is saving you from the stress of your life?

xoxo Wetnessday anon 💦

He makes it look like he's simply a playful, seize-the-moment kind of man, who found himself drawn to you and decided to make that little drunken dream of yours come true.

After the initial outrage and panic, as well him placating you that if you wish you can still work part-time, you decide to approach it with more dignity and adult reason. Annulment will take time, so you may as well stay at his lavish place for the time being and even maybe enjoy the flirting and variety of skills your husband has 😏

He's fine with you deluding yourself that there will ever be any form of divorce.

That won't happen. Ever.

He enjoys learning more about you and spending time with you (on different surfaces, but also simply talking). But even if he didn't, he wouldn't step away from his plan.

Which was to have you, all along.

He had a few options, but that night in the club when you just presented yourself to him on a silver platter? That was a sign that it was meant to be. You were meant to be his.

You are the key to his growing empire and influence. And now that you're his wife, your father will have no other choice but to grit his teeth and welcome his new son-in-law to the business he previously denied merging in any way.

Now that he has you (and your birth control replaced with sugar pills), he can and will have it all.

Sunlight warms your face as you sit at a wooden table. You sit in silence with yourself. Accompanied only by the sound of a soft breeze and a few chirping birds. A range of flowers sits before you, ranging anything from chrysanthemum to peons. Besides the flowers sits a pair of scissors. Using them to cut stems off of a few flowers here and there as you put together a small bouquet.

“What are you doing?” A soft voice asks from inside the doorway to the greenhouse you sit inside of.

Turning to look at the source of the voice and you find your loving boyfriend. A smile as warm as the sun shines on his face and you can’t help but mimic it. “I couldn’t sleep. Came here to do some arranging.” You respond. Watching fondly as he makes his way to your side.

He still wears the clothes he had slept in. He must have just woken up and upon finding your side of the bed came straight out to look for you. The sleepy was still in his eyes even as they look upon you with love.

A chilly hand touches your shoulder, moving to soothe across your neck. His teal eyes glance at your project before looking back at you. “They look as beautiful as you do.” Gaara compliments you.

For the years you had been together it took him quite a while to willingly touch you. Skin on skin contact had been one of his biggest fears. For so long, anytime your hand would reach for his; you were met with a wall of sand. Any brush of skin would have him standing frozen in place. He had never done any of it on purpose though and you knew that. It was pure reflex for the deeply traumatized man. Now it almost felt like he never wanted to stop touching you. To never let you go so he would never have to fear being truly alone again.

You wave his compliment off with a smile. It was too early to be so sappy. You set down your scissors to fully turn and face Gaara. “What about you?” You ask curiously as you grab hold of his hand gently. “Off to some important kage meeting I assume?”

Gaara shakes his head, lifting your hand to his lips and placing a small kiss against your skin. “No, not yet anyway. Just missed you.” He admits with a shy look. Glancing from your pretty face to the flowers you had gotten up that morning to work on.

It was truly a miracle how far the two of you had come. Once, so long ago, he would never have reached for you first. Would have distanced himself as far as he could. But now he sought you out first. Missed you simply because you were not by his side the moment you both woke up. It made you feel wanted and loved. You could only hope he felt the same.

You stand with the help of your boyfriend. Leaning in to kiss him and he meets you halfway more than eagerly. After you two part, he guides you towards the door he had entered from as you two plan to return to your shared home.

“Let’s go make some breakfast.” You offer. Your fingers intertwine with his, giving his hand a tight squeeze. A reassuring gesture that you would never let him go either.

You’d have to return to your flowers later.

What would Stud!Bucky do if Smartie playfully smacked his ass when he was doing the dishes?

Bahaha. 😂

SMACK

Bucky stood up straight, the dish in his hand forgotten when he heard you giggle. "Did you just smack my ass?"

"Yep!" you declared, playfully hitting the other side. "Gonna play your cheeks like bongos."

He looked over his shoulder to give you a stern stare, but couldn't keep a straight face. "My ass is not an instrument."

"You're right," you said, repeatedly smacking it as if it was. "Doesn't mean I can't play with it."

This is my future wife.

"This is harassment," he joked, making no move to stop you. He liked having your hands on him.

"You hit my ass when I did the dishes yesterday! So what was that?"

"It was encouragement," he smiled. "Like 'good game'."

"...Good game?"

"What? You compared mine to bongos," he argued, turning to smile at you. "But I'll be happy to play your pussy like a guitar."

"Bucky!"

what do u think abt the difference between tonkla w korn & tonkla w win? i was so flabbergasted how dominating he is when he was doing it with win...... wonder how is that relevant to their roles with each other...... did he like win bcos he can toy him? like how he is when he's with korn? hmmmm

Anon, I lost my mind when the WinTonkla scene happened. I did NOT expect it to happen this fast, or like this, but it did and it was marvelous.

Mostly, I lovedlovedloved how the scene illuminated even further that Tonkla is pretending with Korn. By pretending I don't mean the love - because Tonkla does love him - but the whole act of the sweet nong with the high-pitched voice who's there to please Korn and help him calm down after a difficulty day.

His exaggerated acts and his true self are interwoven in a way that seems natural - you don't know where Tonkla ends and everything else begins, which is why the WinTonkla scene blew me away. He never pretended, he took control of the situation and made Win give him everything he wanted (except getting fucked raw, my poor boy was so mad).

We could argue Tonkla is the way he is with Win because he's grieving, but I don't think it matters. Tonkla clearly wants more from Korn, Tonkla clearly fakes some of his behavior with him, Tonkla clearly wants to be worshipped in bed, something he doesn't get with Korn, so he seeked the experience from Win, as well as his company, because my beautiful boy is so, so lonely.

I don't think he likes Win, not yet. I don't know if Sammon plans on making Tonkla fall in love with Win, but in my opinion he won't. Or at least, it won't be exactly love if it happens.

Whatever happens with them and Korn, I'm on board. I'm seated. I'm ready to be blown away and left devastated and in pain. I can't fucking wait.
