Beach day with König

CW: 18+ only, protected p in v sex in a semi-public place, size kink, friends to lovers, possessive but slightly emotionally unavailable König

König wants to take you to the beach one day. He has water and some munch already packed, along with a bottle of sunscreen, and he's looking illegally hot there at your door with one of those rare smiles on his face.

You like to think he's reserved his smiles just for you, but the truth is you never know if König is flirting with you without knowing it, or if he's deliberately teasing you and making your heart ache. You can't get to the bottom of who this mysterious Austrian giant truly is, but you know he likes to spend time with you. That must count for something, right…?

You have to go to the same stall to change because there's a shortage of free changing rooms; it's the most beautiful day so of course everyone else is at the beach too.

You only need to grab your swimwear and towel, but you want to add your share to the beach picnic and so you quickly shove the last of the blueberry muffins you baked yesterday into a tupperware box. You almost melt on the spot when König says you have to feed them to him because his hands will soon be covered in sunscreen. Someone has to make sure you don't burn in the sun, oder nichts?

You've done all kinds of shit together but König has never seen you naked. You try to keep it cool – it's okay: you're both adults, it's no big deal. Friends can share the same changing room, and König has always been the perfect gentleman when it comes to these things.

It's just that you wouldn't mind if his eyes wandered a little... You know you wouldn't blame him for that, if he didn't blame you for taking a peek.

A little peek never hurt anyone, but you never knew what it would cost you. You never knew you'd end up against the stall wall with him inside you.

The reserved gentleman you used to know is completely gone. König tears the condom package open with his teeth and rolls the plastic protection on with no shame whatsoever. Trojan Magnum thin, you manage to catch as the torn package ends up somewhere on the floor of the changing room. You can't believe he came here prepared…

You wonder where his usual shyness went when he too cheated on his promise not to look when you change. You wonder where the polite, considerate man went when König presents himself to you, fully naked, uncut and huge.

You're barely able to nod when he bluntly asks if you want to fuck.

The shy, awkward recruit is nowhere to be seen as König raises you against the rough, unpainted boards and spreads your thighs. The sounds of strain and exertion mainly come from him sliding his cock into you, not from him having to carry your full weight.

You always thought your first time with König – if such a thing ever came – would be something more traditional, more romantic. You always thought it'd be a Netflix & chill kind of moment. This guy has taken you out to have a chaste little meal or to see some stupid movie, for weeks and weeks now. König has the most awful taste in films, but you've endured, just like you've endured his monologues about knives and sniping. König has offered you his huge sweater when you were cold, he's has entertained your need to read poems to him, just as bravely as you have entertained his silly ramblings about yet another Böker knife. You have done a million pranks to the other recruits together. Everyone at the barracks is sick of your stupid inside jokes, everyone says you two are the worst. The 'big goblin' and the 'small goblin', they call you apparently...

Close friends don't fuck like wild animals inside a changing room, you think while he rails you as controlled and muffled as he can – you fear what would happen to you, not to talk of the poor stall, if König was allowed to fuck you to his hearts and dicks content. You never knew the socially awkward but intense sniper candidate would take you to a beach and then ask if you want to fuck. On your worst days you've swallowed tears along with the shy question of would he ever want to be more than just friends.

The only time König ever touched you was when he allowed you to try his favourite rifle. The only time you ever kissed him was after your date nights, and even then it was just a quick peck on the cheek. You were never quite sure if you were just close friends with König.

You almost lose it when he grunts into your neck how he's wanted to do this for a long time. Wanted to fuck you, or fuck a woman against a changing room wall, you don't know, but you hold on to his sweaty neck as best as you can. You have to bite his shoulder to prevent loud, long-held cries from coming out. It only makes König more unhinged, though: you sinking your teeth in him like that.

Now he's infiltrating you with the passion of a man about to die if he doesn't get some pussy. Or like a dog, finally allowed to rut a female in heat. If you two were the only people here, he would probably sound like an animal, too. You know you would.

"When we... When we get back, I'll fuck you properly. Long, and hard. Hm?"

"Y–yes," you whisper on his skin – you don't know if you've ever been this flustered. You fear everyone on the beach will know what you've been doing just from how dumb you will look after this. The bite marks on König's shoulder are enough to tell people that your "close friend" is good at more than just shooting a gun.

When you cum, you sound like a widow sobbing at a funeral; when he cums, he sounds like he's dying from a stab wound. You both sound like two people trying to muffle their sorrow instead of trying to fuck their brains out.

And he won't let you down even when he's done with you. He won't let you down, not even as you squirm and whimper in his hold.

"You're mine now, right?" He pants into your ear while covered in a thin sheen of sweat. It's far from any kind of gentlemanly behavior, that low, possessive growl. Your eyes brim with tears – you like him too much when he's spontaneous and a bit crazy like this. You could fall in love with a man like König.

"I always was," you whisper, and he finally puts you down, content with everything you just gave him. You swear you just heard a soft, pleased rumble rising from that broad chest… But some part of that stoic, reserved soldier you know from the skills training and movie nights makes an appearance when you put your swimwear on. König is perfectly in control while you, in turn, are feeling awkward and completely flushed. At least there's no cum running down your thighs as you prepare for your day at the beach...

And who knew König would be so whiny? The condom you used is full as hell, and he has nowhere to put it because there's no trash can in the stall. He grunts as you try to hold in your laughter — he overall looks like he would prefer it if condoms disappeared from the face of the earth entirely so he could feel you without the plastic barrier in between. You giggle when you watch him smuggle it into the nearest trash after wrapping it inside a paper towel.

You spend the rest of the day at the beach, looking like you're the first people who have just discovered love and the fine art of fucking. He can't take his eyes off you, and you can't take his eyes off him. You play in the water, not as friends, but as lovers. Some elderly lady comes to scold you and says there are children here at the beach. You have your legs wrapped around König underwater, and your arms around his neck above: there's nothing lewd going on. But König grows red, all the way from the neck up. That's when you know he has probably never taken a woman in a public place; sometimes you wonder if he has ever taken a woman at all. The big Austrian sniper-to-be remains a mystery as he brings you some ice cream like the gentleman he is, then licks it off from your fingers like a starved dog. He's hot and cold, and confident and shy, feral and distant all in one day.

"You're mine now... All mine."

He "fucks you properly" when you get back, making your whole apartment smell of sex and desperation. And he says it again... That you belong to him. He says it with a shattered, hungry stare, both fragile and frightening.

Astro observations part 6

🪻Individuals with Sun in Taurus degrees (2,14,26) are always thinking about money - how they can earn more money, what to spend it on. If it's in Scorpio or conjuncts Pluto, they'll often lie about how much money they actually have just to profit off of you. You'll often hear them say "I don't have any money" but secretly have stash of money hidden in their house

🪻Not only do Aquarius Suns have a lot of friends, they also befriend the shy/awkward/forgotten kid (me). I haven't noticed this with other Sun signs

🪻People with Venus in Leo/Leo degrees (5,17,29) often get complimented on their thick hair

🪻Asteroid Fraga (1105) conjuncting any of your planets/angles/nodes indicates your love for strawberries lol

🪻 Check your Moon in Webb (3041) Persona chart. It gives you more insight on the type of content you like to consume on the internet. You can also take into consideration the degree of your Moon

Aries 🌙 - *watches sports matches live*; *laughs at stupid, childish memes *

Taurus 🌙 - the one who always searches for tutorials; "how to bake lava cake", "how to remove a stripped screw"; hmm, maybe i should move *searches houses for sale*;

Gemini 🌙 - *watches memes*, doesn't care what kind of meme it is as long as it's a meme; *scrolls endlessly on r/todayilearned*

Cancer 🌙 - *watches baby videos*; the type that reads family drama posted on reddit, but also regularly checks what their own relatives post on social media

Leo 🌙 - the newest tea on their fav celebrities; they're the first to know what Zendaya ate this morning, where Tom Hanks went on vacation yesterday and if Kylie Jenner is pregnant again; awww a kitty *ends up in an endless loophole of cat videos*

Virgo 🌙 - "declutter with me" videos, "clean with me" videos; *checks their fav blog every day*; *watches workout videos while working out*; *checks e-mails 20 times a day*; ugh, i need to take a break *watches pet videos*

Libra 🌙 - "get ready with me for..." videos, "OOTD" videos, make-up tutorials; their pinterest is full of outfit inspo and aesthetic house decor; "red/green flags in a guy/girl" videos, "first date do's and don'ts" videos

Scorpio 🌙 - *watches every true crime documentary out there*; "Michael Jackson spirit box session"; time to do the deed *watches p8rn*

Sagittarius 🌙 - *saves bible verses all the time*; searches "how to manifest everything you want", obsessed with Neville Goddard content (i'm so sorry, i'm guilty of this); *decides to go on a spontaneous trip, so they end up watching travel videos*

Capricorn 🌙 - the type that doesn't use the internet for entertainment much; actually, you'd be surprised by how little they use their phone compared to the average person; probably has a daily time limit set on their phones, *reads memoirs and biographies*,

Aquarius 🌙 - twitch is their life basically; if they're not watching someone play a video game, then they're playing a video game; *follows LGBTQ+ content during pride month*

Pisces 🌙 - they're listening to music 24/7, has a playlist for every mood they're going through, *watches tangled for the 7th time in a row*; actually, they're always watching a tv series if not for a disney movie

🪻I noticed that most film directors (Hitchcock, Kubrick, Tarantino) have got Neptune in Gemini or Neptune in Gemini degrees (3,15,27). Besides Hitchcock, they also don’t have any aspect between Neptune and Mercury

If you’re still taking OyeiCher prompts…. Cher fussing over an injured Yei? Possibly just from a super full on practice fight at the gym? And he gets a lil banged up. (the ever present risks of being a boxing trainer)

🥰🥰

Here you go! Read on AO3 or:

-

“I’m fine,” Oyei insists even as Cher drags him into the locker room and forces him down on the bench. He has to tilt his head up to stop the blood dripping from his nose, but he’s pretty sure it’s not broken.

“You’re bleeding everywhere,” Cher huffs, and that might be true.

It’s a hazard of being a coach, not being quite as quick on his feet as he was during his fighting days. He’d let Yak land the punch anyway, to make him feel good. At least that’s what he tells himself as Cher digs through the first aid box.

“You weren’t concerned when you were filming the fight,” Oyei says, but he should be more considerate when Cher tosses him a look, coming back with a wet towel and some medicine that is probably meant for the ache in his ribs where Yak had gotten in a few hits.

“Normally you don’t end up with a bloody nose,” Cher says, swinging his leg over the bench so he can face Oyei and dab at the blood with the towel.

His eyebrows are furrowed, a frown tugging at the edge of his lips, as though he’s actually worried about Oyei. It’s not as if Oyei hasn’t been hit before—his nose has been broken at least twice and in the very first match he ever fought, he ended up with a concussion. This is just a scratch.

But Cher never saw much of his professional matches, didn’t see the bruises and the blood. He wonders how much more worried he would have been if he’d seen that.

He smiles, though, as Cher cleans up the blood on his face, fussing with his hair to get it out of the way.

“Don’t smile at me,” he says, a command that just makes Oyei’s smile grow wider. “You’re hurt and it’s your fault.”

“My fault?”

Cher pokes at his cheek, just a tiny bit, enough that Oyei pretends to wince. Cher’s eyes go wide, a momentary concern that he’s actually hurt him, until Oyei bites his lip and Cher glares instead.

“You left yourself open for Yak to hit you in the face.”

Oyei’s eyebrows go up even with Cher dabbing at his face, a gentle touch that would normally be welcomed if it wasn’t accompanied by Cher critiquing his fighting skills.

“Who’s the coach here?” he asks, pulling Cher’s hand down. He thinks his nose has stopped bleeding, but he’s probably still a mess. All sweaty and bruised.

Cher’s eyes are big, that sad, pouty look on his face that just makes Oyei crumble. “I don’t like seeing you get hurt,” Cher admits after a long second, twisting the towel in between his hands, almost petulant when he says it. It tugs at Oyei’s heart, knowing how much Cher cares, that he’s really worried over a bloody nose and a few bruises.

“I’m not hurt, babe,” Oyei assures him again, but he takes Cher’s face in his hands so Cher has to meet his gaze and listen to what he’s saying. “But thank you for taking care of me.”

Cher frowns, like he’s been caught doing something he shouldn’t. But Oyei just smiles, soft, brushing his thumb over Cher’s cheek.

“You’re going to bruise,” Cher says, pulling away from Oyei’s grip to grab the bruise cream instead.

Dutifully, Oyei peels his shirt up for Cher to inspect. He could say something flirty as Cher runs his hands down his chest, testing the bruises forming at his ribs, but he doesn’t. Cher is clearly concerned, being very careful not to hurt him more as he rubs on the cream and Oyei sits perfectly still for him.

His mom used to do this, clean him up after fights, wipe the blood from cuts and bandage him up. Her touch had been just as gentle, just as loving, but in a completely different way as Cher uses a clean towel to wipe the sweat from his brow, sliding down his neck, drying off the glisten on his chest.

“Are you just using this as an excuse to get your hands on me at work?” Oyei asks as Cher’s gaze follows the towel.

He’s not even surprised at the way Cher huffs, an unimpressed twist to his mouth as he glances back up.

“P’Yei,” he says, annoyed, tossing the towel aside, “I’ll give you another bruise if you want it.”

Leaning in, Oyei grins, licking his lips as Cher frowns. “Please?”

Cher scoffs and pushes him back on the bench, but maybe there’s a tiny smile there. Oyei doesn’t want Cher to be worried about him. Injuries are par for the course in this line of work, and he’s well-aware of how to take care of himself. But he likes when Cher cleans him up and fusses over the bruises, how he probably won’t let Oyei hold him tonight for fear of exacerbating the injuries. Oyei will do it anyway, just to prove he’s fine. And because he can’t let a night go by without Cher in his arms.

“At least kiss it and make it better,” Oyei says, plaintive, hopeful when Cher eyes him, as if debating the sincerity since he isn’t taking the injuries seriously.

But Cher’s shoulders drop, the slight tension he’s been carrying disappearing as he presses his lips together and leans in.

He places a gentle kiss above the bruise on Oyei’s rib cage, and Oyei smiles at the tickle, how soft it is. He gets another on the other bruise.

“Better?” Cher asks, straightening up, and Oyei shakes his head.

“There’s one more,” he says, indicating his nose.

Cher sighs, but he takes Oyei’s face in his hands and holds him steady as he brushes his lips just over the bridge of his nose, careful not to press too hard. Oyei’s face tingles as he grins at Cher when he pulls back.

“What a miracle worker,” he says, and Cher actually smiles at that, looking away like he’s embarrassed at the title. But Cher always has been. He pulled him through the mother’s death, and the gym almost closing, and everything else that has happened in the last few years. He’s not sure he would have made it without him.

“You’re still smiling at me,” Cher points out as he grabs the towel again and wipes a bit more at Oyei’s face.

“It’s because you’re cute,” Oyei says simply, and Cher rolls his eyes, amused anyway.

“You’re a mess,” Cher just says, and Oyei can’t deny it. But he’s Cher’s mess and that’s all that counts.

I have never read the princess bride but have seen the movie and it's one of the greatest films of all time.

Your story about the book just is beautiful I hope you enjoy carefully reading it

I strongly encourage you to read it !!! it’s such a good fucking story, my god. it’s been my favorite book and film for over 20 years, ever since I first saw it as a child and then begged my mom to let me read her copy of it when I was a little older and could understand more of it.

I fell in love with the story so fast. like, the film is obviously fucking stellar just absolute PRIME and a love story for the ages, like total fucking fairytale fucking elegance. but the book ??? my god. it’s on par with the Hobbit, my other all time favorite singular book, and the Dragonlance Chronicles. at least, the main trilogy of the Chronicles. I actually used to have a GIANT, like we’re talking a little over 1,300 pages, almost FOUR FUCKING POUNDS OF BOOK THAT’S LIKE 3 INCHES WIDE with nearly 10 inch tall pages packed full of small font that is also annotated by both authors, has a bunch of not only full color but also glossy like photo-esque illustrated pages, and was even signed by Tracy Hickman himself because one of my mother’s good friends bought and got it signed for me at a convention he went to just because he knew how much I loved those books and how often I begged my mother to let me read the three she had on her bookshelf so he bought me my own special collector’s kinda copy. and I don’t know what happened to it 😭😭😭 I have to buy a fucking new one and it won’t be signed anymore and I’m so sad about that. I think it’s up in my mother’s attic with all the rest of my books from when I read like non-stop every day so I’ll never see that or my red leather bound with a red leather box sleeve, a huge fold out and very detailed map at the back, LOTR 1976 collectors edition that was given to me by my grandmother on my father’s side again either lmao 😢😩 (just looked online for prices on both those books and I’m 😭😭😭 because Chronicles is like $95 for the hardcover on Amazon, and the correct 1976 LOTR red leather edition is up for auction with bids starting at fucking $250 with considerable amounts of wear and tear from use/heavy reading. it was definitely a well loved book, but I’m not willing to spend that much on a damaged edition of it, so I will not be getting my hands on that version again. maybe the Chronicles though, one day 🥺)

but, anyways, I do still REALLY wanna read the series him and Margaret Weiss made of the twins. I just NEED to learn more about Raistlin and his Test™️ and Caramon and everything that goes into their backstory more because I never got around to getting my hands on that collection of Dragonlance books.

ANYWAYS wow i fucking RAMBLED I’m SO SORRY omfg ASJDKDHSJD if you read all this, I feel bad btw if you did lol, but I hope you’re having a good day and that this weekend wasn’t too bad for you at least !!! ☺️

[subterraneanna]

This critique of 1964 deep cut Where Love Has Gone asks of DeForest Kelley’s Sam Corwin: “…is he gay? Impotent? A satyr? Maybe it’s clearer in the book.” Well, you don’t have to read the book to answer one of those:

✔️He’s a hedonist ✔️He hangs with baddies ✔️He scampers around with panpipes a tobacco pipe ✔️It's implied he's not a real man (so maybe half man?) ✔️He’s preoccupied with sex (and endlessly tries to bang his equally promiscuous married friend with zero discretion) That’s a satyr, folks. And while he’s only drinking in one scene, this randy fellow's natural habitat is a wine-soaked gallery opening so it’s safe to say that’s another box checked off. Most unusual for a satyr, however, is his apparent shape shifting ability as he majestically emerges from his cut-to-the-present chrysalis as an upstanding silver fox, ready to stir up all your daddy issues. 

This painting is in various states of completion, but I stepped back and got hit with a Dogs Playing Poker vibe 😬 so I think it's time to call it quits. After all, it was only intended to be a 30-minute sketch but somehow turned into a nearly 3-month painting. At some point I realized working this hard on something inspired by an unpopular garbage movie probably wasn't the best use of time, but there was no turning back. Hopefully it finds its way to the small fraction of people who've seen this film. If you're wondering why there are two Sam Corwins, one explanation is that I painted two, couldn't choose between them, and forced both into the composition. But in keeping with WLHG’s trashy, sex-fueled melodrama, let’s instead imagine that after Valerie’s departure, Sam found comfort in the tufts of a wayward tribble (hey, "when you're dying of thirst, you drink from a mudhole"), unleashing a pestilence of bisexually asexually-reproducing, lusty tribble-goat-men upon poor, unsuspecting San Francisco. Could this be the 200-years-in-the-making backstory here? It's all coming full circle. I've never written fanfic, but I'm suddenly giving it some serious consideration... BTW if anyone knows the location of “Dr. Sam’s old stand”, please send the address. I’m just, you know, looking to get a professional review of some, uh, artwork… Obviously. Prints available

i blacked out and this appeared in a google doc. looks like its about @how-to-fail-at-ship-jumping-au's founder?? that’s weird, there’s not much that’s canon about her

(cw derealization ish, pov second person)

"We should start a film company," you say to your friend one day. You are both young, college students. Majoring in film, in fact.

He laughs. "Taking some initiative? Sure, why not. Might as well try, huh?"

----

Somewhat surprisingly, it actually works! Within a few years- pretty good acting by a small group you collected, a whole bunch of social media campaigning by your friend's girlfriend, and lots of late nights spent (if you may say so yourself) skillfully editing- "Showfall Media" takes off! It's not huge, of course, but you've reached enough people that you're making decent money from it. The two of you plan a metanarrative for the company, but other than referring to yourself as "the founder" on the aforementioned social media it never really comes to fruition.

----

Your friend has a son, and the kid's adorable! He cameos in the next show, and quickly becomes a fan favorite. You think he'd be a great addition to the cast and even better publicity, but your friend says otherwise. At the end of the day, it is his decision, you suppose.

----

"You know things about old tech and stuff, right?"

You lean back in your chair. "Yeah?" That's an understatement, you think. The office around you is full of scraps, circuit boards, and wires- they're really interesting to take apart and fiddle with!

"Ranboo found some... weird tapes in the woods. Can- would you mind checking them out?"

"I would be honored," you respond lightly.

----

You listen to the tapes.

the sound wraps around you like a blanket or maybe a noose- buzzing in your ears, down your neck, under your skin

you blink,

your mind is fuzzy, but not unpleasantly so.

you could get used to this

----

Everyone at work seems more tense than usual, especially your friend. If only there was something you could do about that...

----

"We're tanking hard," the stats person says. They point at a screen. "This month has-"

You push them out of the way to look. "No! Someone announce a new show and get Hetch writing something. We need to fix this."

They nod and stand up from the floor, trying to avoid your eyes. You hadn't meant to push them that hard.

you hear a faint whisper in your ear, but when you look there is no one there

----

You learn from one of the cast members that your friend's wife(?) has died. You can't decide whether to be frustrated that he didn't tell you, or grateful that you didn't have to worry about comfort.

you have experiments to do, after all! a voice whispers

----

Showfall continues losing viewers. Anyone not immediately relevant is fired or tested on. vague red lines appear, framing people's faces

You only give a moment's consideration to the fact that your materials are most of the budget. If you can fix this, everything will go back to normal! Most people avoid you now, and you welcome the time alone.

----

Your friend's son wanders in during a Q&A, and you realize how valuable of an asset he could be. the voices love him, and the audience does too! You befriend him before his father can mess anything up, and when your friend calls you angrily later that night, you remind him who controls his paycheck. You mean to mention your projects offhandedly, but you think he takes it as a threat. you guess that works too

----

Ranboo is indeed an excellent addition to the company! He fits right in with the actors, and is a pretty good one himself- the mask thing you're willing to overlook, especially because it creates a mystery for the viewers to solve. you can tell the voices love it. It doesn't affect you, anyway; you can't see anyone's face anymore because of the boxes. 

----

Eventually, the time comes to get rid of your friend. You'd known it would happen for a while: aside from the voices (which you're pretty sure are from the future) talking about him nonstop, he'd become completely useless to the company. And what a perfect opportunity to test the box! as a treat, you let the voices decide his fate

----

they let him live. unexpected, but of course you're not going to argue. The anticlimax is disappointing, but the voices seem happy, chattering about the next time you'll let them choose...

Women and Unforgiven

01/11/23

I’ve made the conscious decision to kick this year off with a bang. New Years resolutions have never really been a thing that I partake in but it seems as though I’ve run into some problems I’d like to solve in my life. Problems as a source of inspiration. Always the best type of inspiration. The most effective. One problem led to another: Now I am making my first attempt at reading the ginormanimasous entity of a novel titled Infinite Jest. I am enjoying it tremendously so far. I have not yet experienced the notorious pang of fatigue I have been warned of or the rip-the-book-in-half-throw-it-against-the-wall jolt of frustration, although if I get a little more into it I may very well cross into the rip-the-book-into-various-sections-and-rearrange-it territory I have been advised on. As much as my interest in this novel may pique at a fairly high point within my extensive library of special interests, I can’t see my Obsessive Compulsive Fan disorder ever straying me down the path of book vandalism. My OCF can and has guided me into the murky waters of low quality, disseminated and redisseminated  David Foster Wallace interviews. Obviously you surf the web, but at some point you gotta abandon your surfboard for a boat, a boat for a submarine, a submarine for scuba gear and eventually just take that dive all by yourself until page 30 out of 435 can be seen on the Google search engine horizon. A perpetual trek onwards. Today I find myself at the halfway mark of Wallace’s 1997 interview with Charlie Rose, the part where they bring up the 1992 film Unforgiven. The two men sing their praises for the movie for a minute before moving on, but in that one minute, Wallace mentioned something that offended me. I am offended. 

No, I am not offended. I am joking. But his comment was interesting. Wallace claimed in the interview that all the women he mentioned or showed Unforgiven to did not like it. As a woman, one who did enjoy Unforgiven, I want to formally assert that I am simply not like other women. 

No, I am very much like all other women. I am joking. But I do want to respond to Wallace, because there’s more science to his statement. I’d like to think he contemplated why all the women he surveyed did not like Unforgiven. 

David, if I may, or I can say Mr. Foster Wallace if you’d prefer, I want to explain, on behalf of all women, as the leading ambassador of all women across all space and time, why we do not all collectively like Unforgiven. Some of us do. But regardless of whether we like or do not like Unforgiven, I present my 2023 self before your 1997 presence on Charlie Rose’s talk show to assure you that we all have some same basic level of criticism for Unforgiven. 

As a woman, Unforgiven is entirely unrelatable. The film grapples with some larger, overarching concepts of addiction, particularly to alcohol and violence, and of course, it introduces probably one of the first narratives of the female sex worker as a thought-having, politically active, independent human being in a Western as opposed to the Stagecoach-esque damsel in distress prostitute typical of the genre. That is not the divisive part. What makes this film so divisive among the sexes is its one defining quality: Violence. Sure, this can be said of any high action, high budget, easily digestible box office picture, but a clearer argument can be made in the case of Unforgiven. Over the course of a few weeks last semester, I spent a considerable amount of time with this movie. Mr. Foster Wallace, if you would’ve cornered me outside of my Introductory Film Studies class after just having spent 2 hours and 11 minutes in a dark room full of various university students doodling on their notebooks, fast asleep in their barely-comfortable chairs, drinking water every two minutes just to keep themselves awake, and regretting taking the Film Studies course because they were coming to the slow realization that they had to watch something other than the easily digestible box office picture every other day, my response would have blended in perfectly with all the other women you had asked previously. I did not like Clint Eastwood’s Unforgiven. But later that semester I was assigned a paper on that very film, effectively being forced into a stuffy closet with it until I came back out with various metaphorical hickies on my neck and 2000 words on all the ways it only provided an echo chamber for American hyper-individualistic ideology. 

Mr. Foster Wallace, Unforgiven is so male. You and Mr. Charlie Rose were bound to like it. Having watched and watched and then rewatched, I grew to appreciate the film. I grew to understand how revolutionary it was in the realm of the American Western picture, I even grew to enjoy it. But what I gathered most of all from my dissection of this film was that it was never meant for me. For a woman, I mean. Out of the many things I am, I think my sex is a defining quality. It affects every aspect of my life, including how I, as a tried and true cinephile, consume media. I am generally forgiving (and occasionally funny). Generally very open to the stretching of the truth and the cutting of corners. But this movie is quite stiff and rigid, like an ancient block of cheese. Clint Eastwood, an icon of machismo in U.S. entertainment, is our main character, and although he tries his hand at some revisionism, it falls flat. We are introduced to Munny as a changed man, one with two small children and a pig farm and a humble little home and a deceased wife that forever altered his world view. He’s asked to carry out a hit on behalf of an unfairly abused prostitute and agrees to do so. After holding down the fast forward button for a good two minutes and watching all the little frames go by on the Netflix application, we get to the end where he single handedly massacres a room full of men in a bar, downs a couple shots of whisky, threatens a reporter’s life, swears that he’s not afraid of doing it again, before riding off into the night with an American flag splayed in the shot behind him. Eastwood’s character breaks every promise he had made to his dead wife: He defies every word he said in the beginning of the film about “change” and “better person”. To top it all off, every man in the movie is just as bad as him: If not worse. As a female viewer, a carrot is dangled in front of us in the beginning of Unforgiven. We are enticed with the prospect of a good man, one that has allowed the better forces in his life to infiltrate his soul and give his existence a new meaning outside of senseless violence. By the end, it is clear that we were lured into a trap. The prospect is the kicker here. It is the most redeeming quality of this film and it is yanked from underneath our feet. I am not holding the film in contempt or demanding an end to violence in all movies ever, I am simply speaking for all women when I say: We are tired. As the half of the population that suffers from insurmountable amounts of physical abuse at the hands of the other half: We are tired. We are tired and weary of the prospect. The prospect of non-violence. The prospect of a man that respects us. The prospect of a truly changed man. Getting to the end of Unforgiven is another failed prospect. Same old. Exhausting. 

There are wonderful films out there that partake in copious amounts of violence. The 1993 revisionist Western, Tombstone, for example, is chalked full of ridiculously glorious shoot outs in true Western fashion. But, again speaking on behalf of all women because I am the ambassador of all women everywhere, it is a marginally more enjoyable movie. What makes it much better in some ways is not the absence of violence, but rather a presence of vulnerability. Tombstone gives way to a story we women want to hear. One of true change and eventual peace and prosperity amongst men. Tombstone shows the emotion of man, at first being channeled through the shoot outs and the use of violence, but later on, after the men have realized all the suffering they’ve caused, channeled into a productive and intimate resolution of peace. The small gay love story between a cowboy and a showman rings loudly in the background. The final tender moments between Val Kilmer and Kurt Russell’s characters make room for macho manly men to let down their guards and express love for one another after a long period of hate. The small shot of a wagon full of women passing by with bold “Equal Pay for Equal Work” signs raised above their heads. Johnny Ringo and Doc Holliday’s verbal face offs before finally succumbing to their weapons: Their quirky dynamic subtly emphasizing the idea of violence as a final resort. And in the end, Kurt Russell leaves town not with the prospect of returning to wreak havoc again, but rather with the reality that violence was never the answer in the first place.  Mr. Foster Wallace, the Western can be a wonderful thing. It can be truly revolutionized. Whereas Unforgiven had and still has a grip on the critics and film analysts for its “revolutionary” ways, I want to bring up the question of who is it serving? When men like you ask women like me if we liked Unforgiven and all of us say ‘no’, I think it is fascinating and it deserves to be looked into. It’s not “because it’s a Western (Which it’s not)” as you told Charlie Rose or because we can’t see its value and intentions. Of course its intentions are clear. It has always been abundantly apparent that Unforgiven was a rarity in Western cinema when it came out. But Mr. Foster Wallace, if you were a woman that had seen that tired story play out a thousand times in the world around you, would you “like the film?”

C, F, and H for ask game <33

C: What character do you identify with most?

Honestly this is the hardest question to answer ever. But after plenty of consideration and consulting my friend, I have decided to go with George Luz, because he’s the one I find myself writing the most in luztoye fics specifically, this is due to a) i too have experience living around disability and in luztoye that’s… yk it’s sort of part of them naturally. b) I think I’m funny <3 (I am not) and c) I too am annoying and talk through films <3

F: Share a snippet from one of your favourite dialogue scenes you've written and explain why you're proud of it.

I lied. THIS is the hardest question to answer. Well, I was gonna put something heartfelt and/or deep but I’m in the midst of the world’s most ridiculous webgott fluff fic. Where they are on a cruise. That’s it, that’s the plot. As such here is part of a scene set at a fun little bar:

**

“This is incredible.” Joe said. His voice was tight with the kind of childlike wonder that he didn’t think was physically possible. The last time he’d been so happy over something like this, he’d been in the 6th grade.

(He’d been bet by a friend to do something stupid. He didn’t even remember what he’d done to get the five bucks, but he’d done it. And 12-year-old Joe Liebgott had used that hard earned money to buy not one, not two but an entire box full of Hostess Twinkies. He’d scarfed them down all by himself, sitting on the curb outside the 7-Eleven.)

“It… sure is something.” David said, eyeing his own drink with not nearly enough whimsey.

“This is the something, Web. The best thing in existence. Mister Señor Frog should be the next big icon. Who doesn’t want this much alcohol?”

“Señor means mister.”

“I know that, jackass. I just respect him that much.”

**

I’m proud of it because I think it’s funny (see question 1,,, I’m still not funny)

H: How would you describe your style?

How to Safely Transport Fragile Items

Whether you're moving family heirloom furniture to a new home or attempting to get delicate glass decor to a construction site, moving fragile items is a nail-biting experience. Road transportation is full of bumps and turns, putting easy-to-break goods at risk. While cargo vans delivery service experts will do their best to make the ride as smooth as possible, proper packing is paramount to getting your items to their destination in one piece. Here are a few tips to help you avoid damage during transportation.

Use Appropriately Sized Boxes

The first thing you need to do when dealing with breakable goods is to find a suitable box. Many DIY movers make the mistake of thinking that any old vessel is good enough. But the quality of the box matters. One that's too small will force you to wrestle the object as you get it in the correct position. Meanwhile, a too-big box will allow the item to move around during transport.

Take your time in finding the perfect fit. If all else fails, contact your cargo vans delivery service provider to see if they offer boxes to buy.

Secure the Bottom

It doesn't matter how perfectly sized or sturdy your box is. If the item inside is of considerable weight, it can cause the cardboard to buckle and sag. To avoid a disaster waiting to happen, secure the bottom.

Add extra pieces of tape to reinforce those flaps and create a sturdy support for whatever is inside.

Wrap Each Item

It's okay to transport multiple delicate items in the same box. However, they must be individually wrapped. Wrapping cushions each piece, preventing accidental bumps and dings that destroy fragile items. Whether an ornate chandelier or a collection of fine china, wrap every item in paper or bubble film for extra piece of mind.

Fill Empty Space

Finally, fill as much space in the box as possible. A big reason why goods break during transport is that they have room to move around. Using bubble wrap, peanut fill, or any other soft material to secure items in place can be a lifesaver!
