I Know I'm Late As Fuck To The Party, But Hunger Pangs By Joy Demorra Is Genuinely SO GOOD
GODDAMN
This book breaks ALL the rules and it's still one of the most entertaining things I've read all year!
Tumblr media
Hunger Pangs is shamelessly self-indulgent in the very best of ways. There were multiple times where I swear I heard an echo of the author laughing to herself as she wrote.
And I don't know what I should call it, but the closest thing is fanservice I guess? Butter? Whimsy? Well, what ever it is, Hunger Pangs is chockfull of it and here's a non-exhaustive list:
An cunty autistic vampire called Vlad fucking Blutstein
A disabled werewolf beefcake sweetheart
A woman so powerful she could kill you with her pinky (Can I get a Hell Yeah to that?)
the vampire is such a giant fucking nerd like peak blorbo material fucking hell I want to chew on him
BOTANY SAVES THE DAY
somehow slice of life, epic quest to save the world and political intrigue all at once? HOW?
OH and the smut is SCRUMPTIOUS
BALLS
LIKE THE SOCIAL FUNCTION NOT THE BODY PART
Galadriel doesn't have shit on Ursula, beautiful, ancient, powerful Ursula, I love her, I love her so much, my only complaint is that there was so little of her
🌟Absinthe🌟
HOT SPRING HOT SPRING HOT SPRING HOT SPRING HOT
I take back the previous point, there was no on screen hot spring and I am STILL mad about that (in the sequel perhaps? (pretty please?))
Beautiful carnivorous plant children
The universal autistic experience of needing the flirting equivalent of a sledgehammer to the face to be sure what's going on
Political commentary with all the subtlety of Mickey 17, case in point:
"It was all just so frustratingly simple. The government needed to stop levying crippling taxes on the lower classes, they needed to stop waging wars they couldn’t win, and they needed to focus their efforts on relief aid. It was plain as day. They needed to just… do the right thing. The problem was, they just kept choosing to do the wrong thing, over and over, and then they had the audacity to act surprised when the working classes kept finding novel ways to liberate the ruling classes of their heads."
Okay, this list is getting long and I could go on and on and on, but I think we're reaching the point of the review where I put it down and wait for the energy drink to wear off, see you in two hours. Toodles!
Whelp, okay.
Hunger Pangs is an ode to people that refuse to give up their gentleness in face of the world's atrocities and great personal hardship and make a hell of a lot of difference doing so. It's a reminder that even if the world is on fire, there is still love and joy to be found.
Nathan, a werewolf veteran whose decades long deployment ended when he was shot in the shoulder with a silver bullet, should be dead according to all doctors. And he's not alive either, he's just dying very very slowly, poisoned by fragments of the silver bullet no doctor bothered to look for. As a result he's deaf and has lost much of the function of his shoulder. And even after the fragments are removed, while he gets better, he still is disabled.
And where a lesser author would have come up with some magical cure for his illness, made him "whole" again, Demorra gives him hearing aides.
I don't know if Vlad is canonically autistic or if I (auDHD and retired theatre kid) am projecting, but he resonated with me deeply. I've never read anything that got masking so right. His opening of the second ball is a brilliant example of how sometimes, in measured dosages, autistic people can and do enjoy being the centre of attention. Sometimes the line between acting and masking blurs in a way that can be really fucking fun.
I wish we saw more of Ursula in this book. Her tragic background and the responsibility she shoulders must be crushing. What Demorra does brilliantly is contrast her bone-deep fatigue to how much energy and vibrance she can exude.
You can get the ebook on payhip or through your local bookstore. (While I'm very much not the target audience for it, there's also a closed doors version.)
I very much recommend getting it local. For reasons.
Tumblr media
OH, before I forget, Demorra is an esteemed hellsite member! You can find her right here, she's a joy to have on your dash: @thebibliosphere

Nerd!Gojo X Bimbo Reader
Part 5 MDNI 18+
Tumblr media
“Wait— how did you know my name?” as that question spills out he realizes he doesn't know your name either. You turn around flashing him a big grin before winking and giving him a little shush signal before walking off again.
After Gojo had gotten home from school he immediately took out the piece of paper you handed him with your number in it. He exhaled softly not believing he actually has your number and he barely had to do much.
He quickly moves his fingers across his phone screen inserting your number he didn't even stop to think about how to text you he was too excited to finally get to text you.
XXX-XX: hey it's Gojo :) I realized I never got your name btw.. So what should I save you as.. oh and here's my address XXXXXXXXX you can come at 5!
He throws his phone to the side as soon as he sends you that text flustered and nervous to see if you'll respond. His eyes widen and he tenses when only a few seconds later he already hears his phone ping.
XXX-XX: hiii gojo sweetie ;)
sorry about completely forgetting to give you my name whoops it's 𐙚˙⋆.˚  make sure to put a cute heart next to it!!
Gojooo :3 💙: DW it's fine!! I'm glad to have it now.. it's a beautiful name :)
𐙚˙⋆.˚ 🩷 : aweee gojo you little flirt! ty cutie piee can't wait to see u toniteee 😘😘
Gojo smiles giddily like a middle school girl with her crush he hearts your message and swipes out of the app looking at the time in the corner of his screen, 3:02 He had enough time to clean and make sure he looks good, not for you but for himself he tries to convince himself.
He's looking at himself through the mirror fixing up his hair making sure no strands are sticking out weirdly he also makes sure to check his breath because well he never knows maybe he might get some action tonight. Gojo checks himself out making sure he's ready to have you over meanwhile you are in your room quite frankly doing the same.
You're applying lip gloss, your lips slightly parted as you sit in front of your vanity mirror. You look to the side looking at the notification from Gojo, he didn't reply, just liked your message but you still appreciated the notification anyways. you press your lips together getting up from your seat walking to your full body mirror.
You look at your outfit smirking at yourself proudly, it's not much really, just a very cute jean mini skirt and a tight white tank top that showed a peak of your blue lace bra which pushed your tits up deliciously and you topped your outfit off with a little sweater that matched the color of your bra.
"perfect m'sure he'll like this" You muttered to yourself running your hands over your body checking yourself out before heading over to your vanity once more and spraying yourself with your favorite perfume that always had you smelling nice. You picked your phone up you noticed you still had 30 minutes left and you thought to yourself why not show up a little early anyway.
-
Gojo swears his heart dropped when he heard the doorbell ring he looked at the time on his phone, it was only 4:45 meaning you were 15 minutes early NOT what Gojo was expecting but not that he minded anyways he wanted to see you again as soon as possible.
He practically tripped over himself rushing to the door, wiping his hands on his sweats one last time and running a hand through his hair as if that would somehow make him look cooler. When he opened the door, he tried to play it off with a lazy smile—but the second his eyes landed on you, it faltered.
“Holy shit,” he breathed before he could even stop himself.
There you were, standing on his doorstep with that teasing little smirk, your jean skirt hugging your hips and that snug white tank giving him an eye-full he absolutely wasn’t ready for. The little sweater draped over your arms made it look like you hadn’t even tried—but Gojo knew better. That kind of outfit was lethal, and you knew it too.
“Hey, Gojo,” you sing-songed, stepping past him like you owned the place. Your perfume hit him like a truck and he actually had to close his eyes for a second just to collect himself.
“You’re early,” he managed to say, shutting the door behind you. His voice cracked at the end. Great.
You turned, hands behind your back as you rocked on your heels. “Mhm. I figured we could get started sooner…” you trailed off, biting your glossed lip slightly as your gaze drifted down his body. “Unless you weren’t ready for me yet?”
He blinked, cheeks flushing despite his grin. “I—pfft, of course I’m ready! I’ve got the whole session planned out, down to the last equation,” he said, tapping the side of his head like he was a genius.
You cocked your head. “Oh? Equations, huh? Hope you’re better at math than I am Im literally the worst at it"
He softly laughed. “c'mon you can't be that bad, I promise as your tutor you'll be even better at math than me.”
“Well,” you said, placing your hand on his bicep looking up at him through your lashes “if you claim to be a good tutor… why don’t you teach me something already, Gojo?”
He stared at you for a second too long before finally speaking “r-right uh follow me to my room!” he chirped before turning around walking towards his room, you look around as you both step in observing everything in his room like his nerdy anime and digimon posters, his assorted collection of figures to your surprise he even had a gaming pc.
"wow Gojo so you're like a decked out nerd huh?" You smirk plopping down on his bed
"uhh yeah I guess you could say that" you assume Gojo must be blushing because he’s embarrassed about you seeing all his nerdy things but actually he's blushing because when you plopped onto his bed your skirt rode up just a little. what a perv. He looks away from your figure and grabs the material he prepared for today plopping down next to you.
"Ok..so tell me what you're more confused about in math and I'll try my best to help you through it.." He says sheepishly as he feels your eyes on him, your smirk at that last part deciding to be a little tease.
"yeah? you'll help me through it Gojoo~?" You press yourself against the side of him tilting your head and smirking slyly at him he gulps before looking down at you and nodding with uncertainty not 100% sure on what you're getting at.
Gojo clears his throat, clearly trying to act normal, like he isn’t hyper-aware of the way your thigh is brushing against his or how your perfume keeps sneaking up his nose and messing with his head.
“Y-yeah,” he stammers, trying to steady his voice, “like… equations. Fractions. Graphs. Whatever’s giving you trouble.” You lean in closer, pretending to glance at the notes he laid out, but your lips are dangerously close to his ear now.
“Mmm… I think it’s graphs that really get me,” you murmur, voice soft, sultry. “All those hard lines and curves… I can never quite figure out what to do with them.” Gojo almost chokes on his own spit.
His hands scramble for a pencil as he flips open the textbook in front of him, trying to physically shield himself with the material like it’s some kind of defense.
“Right! Graphs! Okay cool, cool cool cool—so this is, uh, a parabola…” You giggle quietly and lean your chin in your hand, blinking up at him like he’s the most interesting thing in the world.
“you’re cute when you get all nervous, y’know.”
“I’m not nervous,” he lies—terribly—his voice cracking at the end.
“mhm. sure you’re not.” You let your knee bump into his under the pretense of adjusting your position, but you don’t move it away. Your skirt has slid up again, and this time you don’t bother fixing it. You watch as Gojo’s eyes flicker down for just a second before jerking away, his jaw tight.
He shifts uncomfortably, suddenly sitting more rigidly. “Okay, s-so the x-axis goes here,” he mumbles, pointing to the graph. “And if you plug in the numbers—”
“Gojo,” you interrupt, voice slow and syrupy as you reach forward and rest your hand over his on the page, “I’m trying really hard to focus. But you’re making it kinda hard.”
Gojo’s head snaps to you, eyes wide. “Me?? I’m making it hard??”
You just smile and trace a lazy circle on the back of his hand with your fingertip. “Mhm. You just have that effect, y’know?”
He swears he short-circuits. His brain completely blanks—he’s forgotten what a parabola is, what numbers are, who he is.
“W-we should really get through this lesson,” he mutters, practically begging the universe to give him strength. His voice is shaky, but there’s a little edge of something else in there too. Something hungry.
You hum. “sure. Go ahead, teacher. I’m all ears.” But your smirk says otherwise. He starts explaining again, hand still trembling under yours, and you let him—for now. Every time he gets even slightly more confident, you lean a little closer, let your chest brush his arm, let your eyes wander just enough to make him stutter all over again. Gojo tries to stay focused. Really, he does. He’s clutching the pencil like it’s a lifeline, his other hand gripping the edge of the textbook so hard his knuckles go white. He’s halfway through explaining how to find the vertex of the parabola, and you’re… well, you’re definitely not helping.
You tilt your head, your lashes fluttering as you lean forward again—pretending to squint at the page, but you know exactly what you’re doing. The strap of your tank top slips just a little, falling off your shoulder. You don’t fix it.
Gojo’s eyes darted to it, then back to the book. Then back again. “Uh—so—when a is negative the graph opens, uh… downward…”
You smile like a cat who knows they’ve got the mouse cornered. “Downward, huh? kay think I get it” You rest your hand on his thigh looking at the graph.
“You’re killing me,” he mutters under his breath, pushing his fingers through his hair as his face burns.
“what?” you blink innocently. “I’m just trying to understand the material. You said you’d help me.” You scoot just a little closer and remove your hand. Now your thigh is pressed fully against his, warm and bare and impossible to ignore. Gojo freezes like a deer in headlights.
“W-we can… review another example,” he says, flipping the page too fast and nearly tearing it. He’s clinging to this tutoring session like it’s his last thread of dignity.
“Great idea.” You rest your chin on his shoulder now, peeking at the book over his arm. Your breath fans lightly against his neck and you feel the shiver run through him.
“You smell good,” you murmur offhandedly, like it’s just a casual little observation. “Like soap. And something else… is that cologne?”He swallows hard, ears turning red.
“Uhh. Yeah. Maybe. Just a little.”You smile to yourself, your voice low and warm.
“It’s nice. Makes me wanna get closer.” Gojo’s hand slips, dragging the pencil across the page in a messy line.
“O-oh, cool, coolcoolcool. Totally normal thing to say,” he rambles, trying and failing to focus. “You really are bad at math, by the way.”
You grin. “Mhm. I know. Guess that means we’ll need a lot more tutoring sessions, huh?”
“Yeah,” he breathes, dazed. “I think I’m in trouble.” he mutters to himself but you end up hearing it anyway. You hum, leaning back just a bit, the warmth of your body pulling away.
“Maybe. But only if you stop being such a good teacher, Gojo~” He’s barely holding it together. Every brush of your skin, every word laced with suggestion, it’s like a slow drip of gasoline on an open flame. He’s this close to combusting.
But for now, he nods, forces a grin, and mutters, “A-alright. Next problem…” You glance up at him through your lashes again. He’s fidgeting—his leg bouncing a little, his pencil tapping the page like it might save him. But it won’t.
Not with you this close. Not with your skirt riding high up your thighs, the scent of your perfume wrapping around his senses, and your eyes locked on his mouth more than the textbook. You wait a beat longer. Just to watch him squirm.
Then, without warning, you lift your hand and slowly slide it over his thigh—not high enough to be bold, but just enough to jolt him. Gojo freezes.
“Y-you okay?” he asks, voice cracking hard. He’s staring straight ahead, but you can feel the way his breath catches in his throat.
You tilt your head. “Yeah. Just trying to get comfortable,” you say sweetly. “You don’t mind, do you?”
His lips part like he wants to say something—anything—but no words come out. He glances down at your hand on his thigh, your bare skin pressed against his, the little peek of your bra still visible and you can practically see him sweating bullets.
“okay but..” Gojo says suddenly, tossing the pencil down with a soft thud. “You’re not even trying to study.”
You blink innocently. “Sure I am.”
“You're lying." he says, turning to you, and now his voice is different—low, frayed, a little breathless. “You’ve been messing with me this whole time.” You smirk, leaning in so your faces are inches apart.
“Maybe. But you liked it.” He swallows, eyes flicking to your mouth. You see the exact moment he gives in.
In one quick motion, Gojo leans in and kisses you—soft at first, like he’s afraid he’s imagining this, but when you melt into it, he groans low in his throat and deepens the kiss. His hand slides to your waist, gripping tight like he’s been dying to touch you since the second you walked through his door.
You gasp a little, fingers curling into the fabric of his shirt, and that’s all it takes—he pushes you back gently onto the bed, hovering over you now, eyes wild and wide with need.
“You’re such a bad student” he murmurs against your lips, breathing hot. “You’re lucky you’re cute.” You grin against his mouth, heart racing.
“Yeah? if im such a bad student what are you gonna do about it, Gojo?” that has him practically whining, God he thought you were so hot.
“D-don’t say stuff like that~ it’s too tempting…” he mumbles, voice wobbling like he’s hanging on by a thread. He’s looking anywhere but your face—down at your lips, your hand on his thigh, the inch of blue lace peeking from under your tank. Anywhere but your eyes.
You lean in, your voice a sultry whisper against his ear. “Tempting…? So you’ve thought about this, huh?”
Gojo makes a noise in his throat—somewhere between a whine and a gasp—and squeezes his eyes shut like he’s trying to delete the whole situation from his memory before it breaks him. “Th-that’s not what I meant—! I mean, I have, b-but—like, not in a creepy way! Just in a normal, completely average way! Like a guy would!”
You laugh quietly, and that does nothing to help the pink spreading across his cheeks. “You’re adorable,” you murmur, dragging your fingers up his chest slowly, watching his breath hitch with every inch.
His head flops back with a groan, glasses sliding slightly down his nose. “You’re seriously gonna kill me,” he mumbles.
You hum thoughtfully. “I mean, I could stop. Go back to learning about… parabolas or whatever.”
Gojo’s eyes snapped open, panicked. “No—! I mean. Y-you don’t have to stop exactly, just maybe slow down a little or I might—” He cuts himself off, pressing the heels of his hands to his burning face. “God. This is not how I thought tutoring you would go.”
You giggle and shift in his lap just slightly—enough to make him physically twitch. “Guess you should’ve made me study harder.”
He makes the most pitiful noise you’ve ever heard. “You’re evil.”
You smile sweetly, tilting your head. “But I’m your favorite, right?”
“…Yes. Obviously. Unfortunately. Please have mercy.”
You giggle at his barely-whispered plea for mercy and lean forward again, your fingers skimming just beneath the hem of his hoodie like you’re testing how far you can go before he breaks.
“Mercy, huh?” you murmur, brushing your lips barely against his jawline. “Didn’t take you for the begging type, Gojo.”
He lets out a sound that might’ve been a whimper, his whole body tensing like he’s holding on to the last shred of self-control he has left. “I’m not—I mean I am—but only because you’re being mean,” he blurts out, voice cracking. “You’re cheating. This is cheating.”
You pretend to be confused, blinking up at him with wide, innocent eyes. “Cheating? But I’m just trying to learn…”
“You’re not learning anything!” he practically explodes, hands flying up in exasperation, then immediately dropping as he realizes he’s yelling. “You’ve been driving me insane since you got here and—oh my god—I can’t think straight, you smell good, your boobs are out, and you’re touching me and you’re so close and I haven’t even finished writing the example problem and—!”
You cut him off by kissing the corner of his mouth, not quite a kiss, just enough to knock the wind out of him. “Then stop thinking.”
His breath hitches again—he swears he could combust on the spot. You can see it in the way his thighs tense under yours, in the way his fingers dig into the edge of the bed like he’s trying not to grab you. He wants to. So bad.
“But if I stop thinking,” he says, voice barely above a whisper, “I’m gonna do something stupid. And you’re gonna laugh at me.”
“I won’t laugh,” you promise, dragging your nails gently up his arm. “Unless you're secretly into it....” He full-body shudders.
“You’re actually insane.” You smile, eyes sparkling. “And yet you still haven’t told me to stop.”
“I can’t tell you to stop,” he blurts. “I literally can’t. You could say anything right now and I’d fold like a pathetic lawn chair.”
“Anything?” you purr, nosing up against his ear. You can feel him trembling. “Like if I said ‘I want you to touch me, Gojo’…?”
He whines. Like, actually whines, head dropping forward onto your shoulder as his hands finally come to rest on your waist—tight, needy, but still so nervous you can feel the tension buzzing through him.
“You’re not fair,” he mumbles, voice muffled against your skin. “You’re not playing fair.”
You run your fingers through the soft white strands of his hair and smile, leaning in close to whisper against his temple, “Good thing this isn’t a game then… or you’d already have lost.”
His breath hitches at your words and he stays still, trembling, like he’s deciding whether to run or melt right into you. But it’s already over. His fingers twitch against your waist, gripping harder now, and when he lifts his head, there’s a glassy look in his eyes—unfocused, lust-drunk, and desperate.
“I can’t believe this is happening,” he mutters. “I was just trying to explain linear motion. That’s all I wanted. Now my brain’s—fuck—I can’t even remember how to spell velocity.”
You lean in until your lips are brushing his featherlight. “Good. Then maybe take a break from studying and indulge in me hm?”
His mouth crashes against yours in a messy, frantic kiss, all teeth and tongue. His glasses are skewed, his hoodie pulled taut between your bodies as he grips your hips and drags you down flush against the hardness straining in his sweats. He groans into your mouth like it hurts—like he’s been this hard since you walked in and it’s finally breaking him.
“God, you’re so—so—pretty, and mean, and smart, and mean,” he babbles between kisses, one hand sliding up under your top, shaky and reverent as he finally touches skin. “I was trying to be professional, I swear, I had notes and everything—”
You roll your hips down into his lap and he chokes, head falling back, lips parted. His cock twitches against you, leaking through his sweats.
“This is what you wanted, right?” you whisper, dragging your fingers down the front of his chest, his stomach jumping under your touch.
“Me on your lap, distracting you. Being such a baddd student, hmm??" He whimpers, nodding like he’s trying to keep his sanity through sheer willpower.
“I’m not gonna last,” he says weakly. “I’m—if you keep moving like that, I’m gonna—gonna come in my pants like some desperate virgin loser—”
“Gojo,” you say softly, smiling as you palm him through his sweats. He gasps, body jerking. “That’s because you are a desperate virgin loser.”
He moans. Full-body, high-pitched, humiliated. “Oh my god.”
“But,” you murmur, shifting to tug down the waistband of his sweats just enough to free him, his cock flushed and twitching in your hand, “you’re my desperate loser now, right?”
His eyes roll back as you stroke him, his hips bucking helplessly into your fist. “Y-Yeah. Fuck. Yours. Just—just don’t stop. I’ll do anything, just don’t stop—”
And when you sink down onto him, slow and tight, squeezing him inch by inch until he’s fully inside, he clutches at you like he’s drowning, sobbing out your name like a prayer.
“Holy shit,” he gasps, arms wrapping around your waist like he’s afraid you’ll vanish. “You feel so good—I-I’m not gonna make it—I’m gonna—oh god, I’m gonna come already—” "Mm..Gojo you're filling me up s-so well im so happy u-ugh been wanting this." You moan out into his ear and he whimpers loudly at that stiffening under you.
"W-what agh- do you mean you've fuckfuckfuck been wanting this?" You're kissing all over him before finally pulling back in a complete daze over him.
"G-gojo Ive mphh- wanted you since I saw you on the first week of school this y-year I fuck — Heard a teacher calling you Gojo w-while praising your work and you just looked so cuuteee~ needed to have you" Your arms are wrapped around his neck and Gojo swears he's seeing stars. so that's how you knew his name — wait you knew him before he even knew about you?
"D-don't hafta call me agh Gojo anymore just call me sat-agh satoru~" He draws out his eyes rolled back and his knuckles white with how hard he's gripping onto you, you look down at him and grin your hips grinding on him.
"T-toru m'close cum with me please?" You whine out your movement getting faster and faster being too much for Gojo to handle. "C-cum on me baby~ im right there pleasepleaseplease give it to me ugh you're so pretty" He cant shut the fuck up begging you to cum on him as hes so close to reaching his high.
One final snap of your hips and you both break. Loud, helpless, completely ruined. It hits him hard, his whole body jerking beneath you as he spills deep inside, voice cracking with every breathless moan of your name. And even as he twitches and throbs, face buried in your neck, he clings to you like he’s never letting go.
"god..that was a-amazing t-thank you.." you smile softly and lay your head on his chest listening to his heartbeat.
"no need to thank me toru hun.. but this makes me your girlfriend now right?" You blink up at him and he wraps his arms around you tight, placing a soft kiss on your forehead.
"definitely you're not going anywhere."

hi hello looking at the handful of notes has made me realize that i should probably explain the niche and nerdy things i'm referencing!
Mnemiopsis leidyi and Pleurobrachia spp. are both species (or a genus) of ctenophores, more commonly known as comb jellies! these guys are similar to jellyfish, but are part of Phylum Ctenophora instead of Phylum Cnidaria, meaning that they don't have the stinging cells of jellyfish and thus cannot hurt you. (this means they're friend shaped and huggable, as long as you're gentle.)
the "ctene" part of ctenophore means "comb", and refers to the comb-like rows of structures down the bodies of most comb jellies, which are used for very minor propulsion. (the "c" is also silent, so this is pronounced teen-oh-for.)
M. leidyi, also known as a "sea walnut", is a very common species found in the Gulf of Mexico and other areas of the western Atlantic coast. i used this guy as a loose shape reference, and also as a reference for the bioluminescent effect on Mnemi's ctenes:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(photograph of M. leidyi on top from WoRMS image gallery; gif below from Monterey Bay Aquarium showing a floating M. leidyi with the ctenes rippling and displaying bioluminescence)
this is also where i got Mnemi's name: mnemi short for mnemiopsis. the first M is silent, so their name is pronounced more like nemmy!
Pleurobrachia spp. is another genus of ctenophores, which can be found just about anywhere depending on the species; some of them are also in the Gulf of Mexico and western Atlantic, and those are the ones i'm familiar with. these guys are commonly called "sea gooseberries", and the most distinctive characteristic of most species beyond their round shape is the pair of "tails" they have, which are long tentacles that are sticky and used to catch prey:
Tumblr media
(image of Pleurobrachia pileus from WoRMS image gallery on species entry)
and this is where i got mnemi's "tails"! theirs are also sticky, but only if they want them to be, because quasi-demonic sheep-adjacent entity.
that said, both species of ctenophores are generally fairly small; i've seen M. leidyi about half as big as my fist, and Pleurobrachia tend to be smaller yet, at least the ones I've seen in the Gulf. Mnemi is....much larger than that, lol. but again, quasi-demonic sheep-adjacent entity <3
anyway the takeaway is: i love ctenophores, i use marine biology knowledge only in evil ways, and i didn't intend to make a Flock OC but i don't intend to do a lot of things and now mnemi is my beloved child who can do no wrong.
thanks for giving me the excuse to infodump!
related to my last rb - new Flock oc just dropped lol. here's the original drawing I did of Mnemi my beloved <3
Tumblr media
theyre based on a combination of ctenophore species! the body is more influenced by Mnemiopsis leidyii, and the tails by Pleurobrachia spp. they're bioluminescent but i have yet to figure out how to draw the iridescent effect correctly lol
this is one of the most niche and nerdiest things I've ever drawn and I love them
version w/o christmas light multicolor effect under the cut:

🍺•Frat!Cregan is a strange breed.. while others went to college for an education and maybe to gain a bit of lore to tell their kids in the near future, Cregan went to drink everyday and fuck pussy.
🍺•Luckily, Frat!Cregan got a scholarship for his hockey. He didn't have to do much to impress others. Cregan just flexed his muscles and flashed a smirk and he had everyone fooled.
🍺•Well.. not everyone.
🍺•See, Frat!Cregan had one weakness. Nerds.
🍺•He'd never tell anyone, but he got off to anything to do with geeky bitches. He didn't like big business porn that just stuck glasses on a pornstar and played her off as a nerd. No. He liked the real thing.
🍺•There'd been times where he'd purposefully lingered around the library and fisted himself under the table just to the sight of girls doing anything that wasn't just partying and having their tits out 24/7.
🍺•He didn't care if they were ugly or not, if there was anyone that peaked his interest, you bet that he's came to the thought.
🍺•Frat!Cregan swore it was a gift from the gods when he met you. You were Baela's friend from her lectures that she had invited out. She was the only girl and having to sit with her boyfriend, Jacearys, and his pervy best friend, Cregan. (Baela 100% doesn't like Frat!Cregan)
🍺•So she may or may not have invited you along so she didn't have to be near him, but she had no clue that it was actually doing Cregan a favour rather than making him annoyed.
🍺•You weren't really that excited but you owed Baela for the answers last week so you had sucked it up. Both you and Baela believed that Cregan wouldn't even look at you since you were.. well.. you. A nerd. A geek. A weirdo.
🍺•Well, obviously you had both miscalculated.
🍺•Cregan couldn't keep his grubby paws off of you. Every single thought in his head was consumed by you, wanting to fuck you silly right there in the cinema.
🍺•His hands lingered near you for far too long, his eyes never tore from you and his mouth ran with the dirtiest comments, whispering them huskily in your ear.
🍺•Eventually, it was over and you didn't see Cregan for about three weeks. Thank fucking god. But then Baela dragged you back into the situation.
🍺•A party. A fucking party. She didn't want to go alone apparently, so she dragged you. Yip-fucking-ee.
🍺•And of course, Cregan found you again. Whispering things in your ear once more and instead, letting his hands grasp whatever part of your body he could reach.
🍺•After forcing mixtures of alcohol down your throat, he had you cornered, fingers plunged deep inside your core.
🍺•Cregan swears it's the best thing he's ever done in his life. His fingers manoeuvring into your underwear, past your pubic hair that you refused to shave because 'it's winter and you're not trying to impress anyone', and into your heat, curling slightly as he gets knuckle deep.
🍺•Yeah, it was scummy getting you drunk just to finger fuck you into oblivion practically in front of an audience, but Frat!Cregan couldn't give a single shit. In his eyes, this was for his pleasure, not yours, even though you were the one getting fingered.
🍺•Frat!Cregan who pulls his fingers out of you and makes you suck then while he tells you how he's gonna fuck you silly later.
🍺•Frat!Cregan who eventually gets your number and essentially blackmails you with pictures you never knew he took at the party, eyes rolled back and all.
🍺•He uses those pictures to get more out of you, literally having a folder on his phone named 'wank bank' and it's all pictures and videos of you. Innocents and dirty. Ones he's took and ones you've sent him.
🍺•Also, Frat!Cregan would 100% storm into your dorm on your study nights and fuck you silly on top of your notes, some getting drenched in his cum, making you have to start all over again while he watches you in the corner, hand in his pants. I meant what I said that he'll touch himself to anything as long as it's a nerdy chick.

Meta-isekai | K. Bakugo ✧ Act I Scene II
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
-`♡´- In which Bakugo gets isekaied into a shoyo romance. -`♡´-
Peak stupidity ⋆ ˚。 ⋆୨♡୧⋆ ˚。 ⋆
Tumblr media
Act I 𓆩⚝𓆪
Scene II: Eijiro is a pro basketball player now
ʚɞ “So, first of all let me introduce you to everyone, quietly that is.” The cat tagged along Katsuki's commute to school. Apparently he still went to UA but instead of a hero-school it was now a higher class, yet normal highschool.
“You just do your morning routine and I'll tell you where to go and who is who. Just carry something that I can sit on.” The cat meowed and yawned, digging its nails into Katsuki's school bag. He had to pretend he didn't notice.
“Have you always been such a lil piece of shit?” The boy asked, checking over his shoulder to see if no one spotted him supposedly cursing to himself.
“Same as you. Why do you think we were paired up? Now into the school building!”
ʚɞ Some key information that Bakugo took mental notes of.
ʚɞ He was in second grade. All of his class members were the same with the exception of quirks. Looking at some of them made him shiver, especially Mineta's hairstyle. Somehow it resembled the purple balls of his superpower.
ʚɞ Eijiro was a rising star in basketball. He still dyed his hair and got shit from the teachers about it but since he was one of the school's most promising students they let it slide ultimately. He was loud and obnoxious as always, with a tight group of fanboys circling him and his manliness.
ʚɞ Racoon eyes still had eyes like a racoon. She was devoted to some weird merge of gyaru meets scene meets emo, with dark eyeshadow and contact lenses. Somehow, she also slid past the teachers, always looking down. Guess this world really was a shoyo dream with all the weird loopholes. Anyway, Mina spent most of her time around the basketball team as one of the managers. Also she was not pink, which was weird, but she still kept a pinkish colour, like she was constantly blushing all over her body. Maybe some kind of freaky body paint.
ʚɞ Denki was stupid, blonde and a perverted. No changes here.
ʚɞ Deku was the class nerd with test scores better than college students. He was knuckles down in study groups and tutoring.
ʚɞ The rest seemed to pursue interests that in Katsuki's hero world became secondary. Yaoyorozu was rich and trying to upkeep her appearances (and had a fine china fetish). Jirou played the guitar, Mr. Tight-Pants Fast Legs was school representative, Ochaco was the class (and ass) sweetheart while Icy-Hot still had daddy issues.
At least Katsuki didn’t fall too much out of the loop to draw unwanted attention.
ʚɞ Katsuki v2 (that's how he called him in his head) had a specific crush. It was a girl from a different class that the now Katsuki had yet to meet.
This girl has never held a proper conversation with Katsuki v2 and the Black Cat has no clue why v2 fell in love with her. The cat descended into v2's life when he already developed the crush but failed at achieving anything human-relations wise miserably.
ʚɞ V2 was good at studying, one of the best in class. He also played the drums (good) and was a part of the martial arts club (fucking awsome). He worked-out regularly, ate well and lived with his parents.
ʚɞ He apparently kept close with Kirishima, Denki and Mina-
-who now swarmed him in the classroom.
“Have you heard the tea?” Denki leaned closer to Mina's ear.
“I swear if you stick a wet finger in my ear.”
“Good idea but no.” Dunceface smirked. “Jirou heard that Yaoyorozu went in on Ochaco talking over the phone about how much she crushes Midoriya.”
“And then Pat told Parvatti to tell Ron, whatever. Besides, it's common knowledge that these two belong together.” Mina slumped in her seat, pissed off that Denki's gossip was not juicy.
“Yeah, but I don’t see them getting together anytime soon so it's still spicy.” The (no longer electric) blonde shrugged.
“If you told me Yaoyorozu walked like in on them, then it would be spicy.”
“Kiri, tell her something! I'm supposed to be the perverted one.”
“Well it's not good to spread gossip or invade someone's privacy like that.” The redhead scratched his scalp.
“I need a comrade, not a mum!” Denki started whining. “Bakugo!”
“You're clutching at a straw here.” Mina laughed.
Katsuki wanted to open his mouth and tell them that there are more important things than Deku's miserable love life but then it hit him. For this lot, there weren't any more important things than goofing around, sliding through tests and having crushes. They had a totally normal highschool life without villain attacks, near-death experience and murderous training under Aizawa. And such v2 also had a normal highschool life. Maybe he was more invested in all these dramas?
“They should just fuck each other already.” Katsuki resorted to… something like this.
“Wow dude. So romantic.” Denki said and everyone gawked at Katsuki only blinking. “I always thought you didn't care about these things but I guess I was wrong, Mr. Bombastic. Maybe you'll become a heart-throb by the end of the year if you keep up this attitude.”
ʚɞ In the end Katsuki learned he should just act like himself.

also another reason i'm wary of discussions of "female socialization" is that too many of them act like it's a universal experience rather than something that varies widely based on your individual sociocultural background. like, what a girl is supposed to be varies WIDELY by culture or even by family.
like as someone who grew up in rural appalachia, what was expected of me as a girl was a good bit different from girls (even of the same race and similar income level) that i've talked to who grew up in town just an hour away. a woman who could effortlessly lob a hay bale half her body weight was considered a *good* thing here. but at the same time, we were told things about submitting to our husbands that could possibly be described as "some handmaids tale type shit".
(the ideal of a good redneck woman shares a lot of traits with a "pickme girl" actually, though it's not quite identical, and is also wrapped in a layer of *regional* pride/exceptionalism rather than *personal* exceptionalism.) (sidenote i've kinda grown to detest the term "pickme girl" cuz half of the people who say it aren't referring to women that push other women down and degrade femininity. they're just referring to like. a masculine woman minding her own business and maybe personally kinda disliking the colour pink cuz it got forced on her too hard as a kid.)
ANYWAY. this is only part sociological analysis and is mostly a leadup to an anecdote i remembered:
in high school i had this girl i was friends with. classic queer teenage friendship. unhealthy, codependent, being some form of in love with each other, ultimately culminating in an explosive friend breakup. you know the deal.
and at the time (peak of friendship, pre-breakup) my friend had this shit-ass boyfriend. like i probably would have disliked him on principle cuz i was a jealous baby queer but he more than earned my vitriol for reasons i'm not going to go into here cuz most of em aren't funny they're just legit upsetting.
and we were talking and i think my friend mentioned something about liking a big strong man who could carry her, cuz next thing i know i'm smugly looking the fuck ass boyfriend in the eyes lifting my friend up with my wobbly little nerd arms. real urgent "mother lifting a car off her baby" type strength or something must have kicked in cuz i've always been shaped somewhere on the spectrum of "twink" and "malnourished victorian orphan"
and i put her down and the fuckass boyfriend comes up to me and pats me on the back and says "wow, you're a real country gal!"
i wasn't trying to affirm my heritage, dalton. i was trying to steal your girl. (and possibly affirm my burgeoning transmasculinity? but mostly steal your girl tbh.)

I'd like to nominate @itsdancingquen / honeymell!
There's many gorgeous fanart contributions she's made for hellcheer like these: https://www.tumblr.com/itsdancingquen/747236482705686528/peak-of-something-i-posted-on-my-other-account-on?source=share

https://www.tumblr.com/itsdancingquen/764711948216647680/comm-for-erythromanc3r-and-their-western-au?source=share
Honeymell's work is so inspired, always nails Chrissy's adorable teeth 🐇 I'd love to hear more about the art process and what's been the most fun to create :)
Introducing @itsdancingquen
We're highlighting honeymell for her fanart! All recs tagged #itsdancingquen will be for her work. Honeymell answered some questions about her process and specific works below
She does commissions! You can find availability and prices here
What's a fandom interaction that made you really happy?
Honestly, any kind of interaction makes my day so much but the one that always makes me feel over the moon is when someone says that my work made them inspired, gave them an idea, whether it is for writing or drawing, the fact my art can do that is kinda unbelievable for me. For a long time, I was so scared of the idea of sharing my art online and there was a time I was certain I was never going to, so the fact that now there's so many people that care about my silly little ideas, to the point that inspire them to also do art is actually crazy to me. Especially since I’m very shy and try not to stay on social medias too much so I don't always see and answer comments for a long time, but I will always be grateful for anyone that interacts with my work, whether is just a little heart emoji or to someone saying that they are going to eat my art lol (that never fails to makes me laugh). Just knowing that there's someone all there that cares and that I’m not just throwing my work into the void is enough for me.
What's your favorite character or aspect of Stranger Things to create for?
I was actually mostly a very casual watcher of Stranger Things. Well, I loved the show for the characters, but I was a little dissatisfied with some of the writing choices that they took (mostly seaon 3) so I wasn’t, like, jumping to watch the new season right away. But then the season came out and everyone was saying really good things about it, so I started to get curious but the main reason I decided to go for it, funny enough, was really for hellcheer after all lmao. Previously, I was in the fandom of a ship that had a similar trope to hellcheer and I one day saw someone reblogging the forest scene on tumblr and It was actually insane how immediately hooked I was. I think hellcheer just kinda hits all my favorite tropes when it comes to couples so it's not all that surprising. Obviously, that didn’t last long, but I was already invested in the story and while Chrissy was gone, Eddie was there and I was already very attached to him so I continued to see the rest. Before season 4, I would say that my favorite character was Max but after it's 100% Eddie and Chrissy. They're now my favorite characters through and through. And if you ask, I don't think I can choose which one I like more. Maybe at the start of season 4 I could say Eddie was my favorite (as someone who grow up as a nerd that was into some alternative scene that constantly got told the shit I like is bad and evil and I’m going to Hell, well yes, I was immediately attached) but simply because we got to know him more and our time with Chrissy was sadly so short, but nowadays, the hellcheer fandom did so much for Chrissy, we built and contributed, and expanded so much for her as a character, for both of them and their relationship really, that now I just love them both equally. And I hope to continue to be part of that.
What's your artistic process like? Any tools you favor?
I feel like my art process is all over the place, I don't tend to plan a lot. Sometimes my brain will just randomly come up with an idea that will never leave until I at least sketch two lines of it. Sometimes, I will be scrolling through some social media and see some cool photos and be like "hey, what if I draw [insert character/ship] like this?" or sometimes I will just sit down and try to draw something without any goal. One thing I love to do: use references. I will spend so much time looking for references, I use them A LOT. They are really an artist's best friend, seriously. Since I love drawing in many styles, usually when I'm going for a more cartoonish style I don't feel the need to use much of it, but if I'm doing a more semi realistic or full realism I will use the hell out of some references! There was a time I used to think I was failing as an artist by using references but I realize that without them I would not have the skills I have today, my art improved so much more after I started not caring about using them and there’s so many things that I now can draw without looking any photos because of them! Literally even the bestest and biggest artists all there use references so any one that says references are cheating are lying, Just save yourself the frustration. I just love trying everything when It comes to art. New painting techniques, different art styles, new brushes. Oh my God, the amount of brushes that I download it's actually crazy. I just love challenging myself to try something new, even if it ends up being so hard, It is always so worth it in the end. Besides, if a drawing it's frustrating you too much, you can always walk away for a little while or a long time actually, trust me, I recommend anyone to do that. It helps so much! My biggest struggle with my art process it’s definitely my procrastination. I have the attention span of a seven year old, so sometimes I will spend way too much time on a drawing that should’ve not taken all that time. And I'm incapable of focusing on one thing at a time, my brain is always coming up with new ideas nonstop which can be very fun sometimes but many times it’s just so tiring and all the bajillion WIPs in my folder do not appreciate it.
What was it like to work on the surprise kiss piece?
So, this one was actually a rarity for me, because as I said in the previous question, I use a lot of references but for this idea I decided to not use any of it. Since I was planning for a more cartoonish style for it I knew I wasn't going to struggle that much with anatomy and be too harsh on myself about whether it is realistic or not. I also didn’t wanna... think too hard while doing this one, I tend to be very perfectionist when drawing so I tried to force myself to not look too hard at whether a line wasn’t that good, the coloring not perfect and instead just try to shut my brain off and have some fun. And I mostly managed to do that, I had lots of fun doing it. I wanted to go for a very cute, very silly look for it, Like I wanted it to look like it tastes like candy or something like that if that even makes sense, lmao. Which is my favorite way to draw hellcheer, because honestly it's what they deserve, considering their sad unfair fate. I had this idea for this drawing because one of my favorites things to draw is Chrissy kissing Eddie in the face and him looking all goofy and lovestruck while her lipstick is all over his face. I’vê drawn this so many times and I never got sick of it, but I was like “what if I did that but with Chrissy” and decided my girl Chrissy deserves to be one getting some smooch this time so that’s how the idea for this drawing came to life.
What was it like to work on create something beautiful out of this tragedy?
This one was a pretty challenging one. My hellcheer art is usually pretty wholesome, silly and overall lighthearted, so sometimes I have this urge to make a more sad art for them and I really wanted to do something that had to do with their fate in canon. So one day, this idea just came to me. This image of Eddie and Chrissy, after their death, in the Upside Down. Their corpses wrapped in the vines, but together nonetheless. Their hands holding and reaching for another even in death. As bright flowers start to grow around and in their bodies, their bond so strong and special that it can create something beautiful and good even somewhere as dark as the Upside Down. That's how I came up with the title: “We create something beautiful out of this tragedy”. Which is essentially how I feel about hellcheer. As much as I like to complain about their fate in canon, I also love me some tragic romance so I do like that aspect of their relationship. How sweet their relationship was despite how brief and how sad it is that it got cut so short. All the what it could've been, how much it influenced Edde’s character through the rest of the season, how it affected his decision at the end. The tragedy of it all is so good for me. So when I came across a photo that had the pose exactly how I imagine in my head, I decided to finally do it. It was a pretty hard piece and since I apparently love to make me suffer, I went for a more realist look in my style of painting, which is always very challenging for me since I suck at rendering and I tried a new way of painting for the first time (greyscale) because i’m a goddamn idiot. My favorite but also least favorite part was doing the flowers, because they are so hard to do but it's so worth it. Since I love me some symbolism, I spent a while browsing for flower meanings, I wanted the flowers to be related to Eddie and Chrissy's relationship so I really tried, though i’m not a professional or anything, and some places the symbolisms differ, but in case anyone is curious here’s my intention with these: The purple Hyacinth in Eddie’s side: usually means sorrow, regret and forgiveness. The blue Hydrangea in Chrissy: like the previous, regret, apologies but also of gratitude. The pink Camellia all over them: admiration, affection, and appreciation or longing for someone. The forget-me-not in the background: well, those are pretty self explanatory. It was very hard, I almost thought of giving up many times but after taking a big break from it (always remember to take breaks, it helps.) I managed to finally finish and it was so worth it, and I'm very proud of it, it's definitely one of my favorites that I did.

Woohoo! First day of the event let’s get into it!
Tumblr media
The first DR I’m going to be introducing is going to be my “Bully Scholarship Edition” reality! 💞 This was one of the first DRs I scripted for and it’s definitely the longest standing one that I’ve never lost interest in. The game it’s based off of is one of my all time favourite comfort games and I have it pretty much memorized. That said I did make changes to it for when I shift so let me explain that!! (Obligatory “Idc if schools don’t work this way in this reality, I script what I want”)
Tumblr media
✨Bullworth Academy✨ is a private college located in New England. From first glance the campus is the picture of sophistication, although there are no formal uniforms the dress code is strict enough that all students dress more or less the same in order to create a sense of unity. All students hold a level of decorum befitting this civilized, refined, academy…
Unfortunately it’s all bullshit lmaoo
In reality the school is complete chaos. As if finishing college wasn’t stressful enough you also have to deal with social elitism, bullies trying to fight you every 10 feet, and staff who are on a MASSIVE power trip. It sucks. Like really bad. And it doesn’t stop just on campus, there’s a public trade school like right next to us who have an inSANE rivalry with the rich kids of Bullworth. The cliques of the school include the preps, jocks, nerds, and bullies while the greasers and punks roam the town. (In game punks were the original dropouts so I just scripted them back in 🤭)
Now how do I fit in? Well in this reality I use my real name so we’re just gonna replace that real quick 😬 I am *Jester* MacAtilla. I was born in New York City in 1988 where I would be given up for adoption and at six years old the man to adopt me would be Michael Cullen. Now Michael is the co-owner of a chain of “traveling” carnivals (I use quotes cause some of them just.. don’t move? Even when they should they just don’t give a fuck) But anyways part of his carnivals are small circus acts and you’ll never guess why this guy adopted me 🧍 it was so he could put me in the circus without paying me lmao. I’m not really complaining, I have fun with my trapeze act and I have friends in the carnival, but because of this I never really bonded with Michael as a family even though technically I am his child.
A few years of that and when I turn 18 me and Michael make a deal, I’ll work full time for a year (he pays me by this point) and then when I turn 19 he’ll pay for my entire college education as long as I work part time at the carnival that’s in the town. Deal MADE man, free ride to college? Epic. A few months before I leave for college though Michael meets a woman who he falls in love with FAST and moves in even FASTER. This woman is Geneva Hopkins 👀👀 so her and her son Jimmy Hopkins moves in with me and Michael. I’m not stoked about having to share a room but I’m like “this guy is chill and I’m leaving soon anyway so no big deal”. LITTLE DID I KNOW this chill guy would become my closest friend. We don’t really feel like brothers but it’s definitely close platonic relationship.
Flash forward, Michael enrolls me in Bullworth Academy for the mortuary science program (gonna become an embalmer babyyyy) and then him and Geneva spring the news on me AND Jimmy that they also enrolled him because guess what? They’re getting married and going on a honeymoon and they don’t want him getting in trouble so I have to babysit (bro we’re literally the same age 💀). You know what though? Their worries are warranted he has been to juvie :/ Jimmy I love you man but some subtlety would go a long way. So yeah that’s how me and Jimmy get to Bullworth.
He’s gonna fuck shit up, I’m gonna encourage him, it’s gonna be great.
That intro was so much longer than I meant it to be 😭 I wanted to keep the event posts around like 500 words, just small peaks into my scripts. I was gonna do “daily life at Bullworth” where I mention my friends and roommates but I don’t want this to get too long so I’ll probably make that post at a later date if anyone is interested. Ofc if you have questions about my DR you don’t have to wait for me to talk about it, you can just hop into my ask box and chat 💞

I've been thinking about a Muppets dungeon meshi au bc I have autism and I've been assigning roles
Miss Piggy would play Marcille bc let's be real it's her dream role to be a pretty blonde elf girl who kicks ass like she's not into the nerd shit but she can blow people up and that's good enough for her. Also she'd LOVE doing the ancient magic you know she would
Bc of this, Kermit would need to play Falin bc COME ON. I think the role would also suit Kermit pretty well even if he's not the main guy character for once. Like Kermit being a healer who beats people with a staff when necessary is very Kermit... Also chimera Kermit would be comedy gold... Frog... Chicken and dragon hybrid thing is so perfect
Chilchuck is the human actor bc it would be funniest, I wanna cast David Tennet. I am unoriginal with this BUT it is the funniest. If I had to choose a Muppet, it would be Pepe...
I think Laios would be Walter bc they both have autism and I think he would do great... Like imagine Walter barking at the shape shifter, that would be his acting peak frfr. Also Walter is already a nerdy guy so he would suit the role well. Plus he's rarely in muppets things and he's my favorite... Also omg Walter would be so HAPPY that he gets to be Kermit's brother in this role lmao
Senshi is... The most difficult one for me to assign. Bc you'd be like oh swedish chef right? Well no I don't think that'd be like a perfect fit, doesn't have very good potential with the later parts of the story... I kinda wanna say Fozzie Bear bc he would be a pretty good fit for Senshi's humor and his general vibes, but I'm not so sure?? He's the one character I'm like really huhh Senshi is just such a unique guy. Although Fozzie does have good range so I don't doubt him at all...
Izutsumi is Animal 👍 like yeah Animal just needs to act more teenage girl but he's got the spirit that Izutsumi has already... Also I think he'd have fun being able to basically do whatever and jump around and be loud
Kabru is Gonzo, I'm not saying more

I know i have a lot of teenagers who follow me because i dont baby talk to them regarding things like drugs and alcohol and sex. So i wanted to throw out some advice that still saves my ass every day as an adult that i learned to instill in myself as a teenager:
-Learn how to keep house. I know that every adult is beating job skills into you right now and its overwhelming to say to least, but no matter what you end up doing with your life, you will need to know how to cook and clean and budget and go grocery shopping and do laundry and the dishes and x y z. You will need to know how to work with cleaning products like bleach safely and without creating mustard gas by accident. If you figure that out now, you will be able to take care of yourself for the rest of your life. Those are skills that you WILL need every day in the real world no matter what.
-i want to asterix the budgeting part. I know way too many grown adults who could be doing very well for themselves who are broke as shit and actively getting worse because they cant budget to save their lives. Managing your finances is what will often be the difference between living relatively comfortably and struggling to get by.
-dont get roommates if you can help it. I know you will want to, and it will seem like a fun idea to live with your friends and like nothing would go wrong, but roommates ruin friendships. If you can afford to live on your own when you first head out, do it. Trust me, paying the full rent is worth not having to deal with other peoples bullshit taking up your living space. I learned this the hard way, dont be like me. The only people you should be actively looking to live with at the young adult stage of your life are any permanent partner(s) that might come along the way, and you should rush that either. And taking some proper time to be on your own will do you so much good in the long run in realizing what kind of person you are and what you need in things like work, relationships, life in general, etc.
-you don't need a brand new car, and your first apartment doesnt need to be high end and fancy. All your firsts for those things need to be are functional, safe, and reliable. And you will love them regardless if theyre your first car/apartment. And you dont really NEED a car if youre an urbanite with a reliable enough transit system, either. Thats more of an individual thing if thats your situation. I live in an older apartment building with a stove from a brand that doesnt even exist anymore, but its real spacious for one person, in a nice part of downtown where everythings still right outside my door, and all my utilities are included. I pay 500 dollars less in rent a month for this than my coworker who lives 2 blocks away from me and has half the space i do with none of the utilities included because its all smart tech and luxury suites in that building. You don't need all that, you will not notice the difference when you actually live there.
-no one cares about high school tier drama when you hit your college years, especially if you go to an academically-based school. In my experience at least, the schools the nerds end up at think the d&d club is the coolest one on campus. This will pass, you will be fine. The nerds really do inherit the earth after you graduate, and all those bullies really do peak in high school. The guy who was the worst offender towards me in high school now literally pumps gas for his dads gas station because nobody else would hire him. Which is fine, its honest work, but it IS a tad ironic how things worked out there after so many years of telling me he'd be my boss one day. Yeah sure, howd that work out bud
-please dont get into drugs and alcohol just to be cool. I know every adult has treated you like some porcelain doll to be handled with baby gloves regarding any sort of substance, but if you choose to partake in them, all i ask is that you be informed about the risks, you do it safely, and dont do it for social clout. Its not the substances im most concerned about there, its that when you do them for social approval, you dont know when to stop or how to listen to your body telling you thats enough, which is a straight shot to a potential addiction. Its your choice whether or not to consume drugs and/or alcohol, but its irresponsible to act like theres no real risk involved in them, especially if you have the kind of personality more susceptible to addiction. Do them for yourself, in safe environments, as cleanly as you can get them if possible, and only after you educate yourself about what the risks are and what resources there are in your area for healthcare and counseling if you do develop an addiction.
-be selfish, but dont be a dick. Your young adulthood is when you should be selfish in the sense of prioritizing your own mental health, work ascension/schooling, etc, but you can do all those things without being standoffish or disregarding other people in the process. You should be there for your loved ones if you can, but if you cant, give them the common courtesy of telling them. A simple "hey, id love to help you if i could, but i have too much going on right now to spare anything. But im always here to talk about it if you need it, ily and im wishing you all the best <3" is way better than "i cant help you right now, i have my own problems to deal with."

IT’S MAX JÄGERMAN
“Ohh well there’s a difference between intent and impact - I learnt that at an anti bullying assembly last month, FUCK NUGGET” took me off guard tbh like I know I’m tired and easily surprised but still 🤭
GRACE CHASITY PROTESTING THE CO-ED HOMECOMING DANCE I CANNOT-
Jägerman is literally the archetype of the school bully jock who peaked in high school like omg but also he’s into Grace?!?!
“I run laps in the gym and I don’t want to slip on any SPUNK” - FUCKING HELL

NOOO NOT HER PHONE 😰 (I am also addicted to my phone so I get it lol)
NOT STEPHANIE THROWING HER HAND BETWEEN HER PHONE AND THE HAMMER OMFG (same though)
Mayor Lauter really said “I don’t give a shit if you lie, steal or cheat to get your grades up, just don’t get caught” - spoken like a true politician
“How am I supposed to study without listening to Spotify?!?” probably should not have resonated with me like it did 🤭
Peter trying to make a joke and Richie and Ruth not getting it is so relatable tbh
I’m obsessed with Ruth’s mushroom jumper tbh
“I just want someone to touch me… anyone, PLEASE” — ROFL (same girl)
“What was it like when she touched your arm?… DID YOU CUM?!?” — 💀💀💀💀
“You and Steph, it’s a fantasy - like a boy and his anime love pillows. It’s a beautiful dream, but I’ll never hold the real Rei or Asuka in my arms.” — I AM PISSING MYSELF LAUGHING JESUS FUCKING CHRIST
“I’m such a loser, telemarketers hang up on me” 💀😭
DID RICHIE JUST FUCKING SAY “NANI!” JESUS FUCKING CHRIST I CANT DEAL WITH THIS SHOW 🤣

“Pete, you’ve been given a once in a lifetime opportunity - someone’s willing to tolerate your presence for a whole evening! This may never happen again!” — damn wish that would happen to me 😭🙈
Not Pete getting a boner during “Cool as I think I am” 🙈
Nooooo not Max finding Pete before he could go into the restaurant to meet Stephanie 😭
“I’m sick of your ssshhhhit!” — YES PETEY STAND UP TO HIM
The fact Max said “Rendezvous” as “Randay-Voose” 💀
The way it transitioned from “say your prayers” to the Chasity family going “AMEN” was PERFECTION
Grace’s father referring to his wife as “mother” is…something 💀
“He came up to me in the hallway and he asked if he could carry my books.” “Oh, Mark - I didn’t know that sort of thing happened at Hatchetfield High! Do you think you should call the boy’s father?” — ?!?!?!
“Mom, will you pass the butt stuff? The butter. Butter. Will you pass the butter? (Chuckles nervously) I just want some head and butter. BREAD! Bread! Bread and butt-sex to go with this big shaft of meat I’m gonna choke down. Oh boy…oh criminy!” - THE SCREECH I GAVE WAS UNHOLY
“I’ve just got some butterflies in my tummy; and they’re flying REAL low today” 😭💀🙈
GRACE FANTASISING ABOUT MAX IN THE BATH I CANNOT DEAL WITH THIS
“Brewing up a big ol’ pot of dirty girl soup” - ABSOLUTELY NOT 💀
HES FUCKING SHIRTLESS WHAT THE FUCK-
“Everyone’s got their secrets, and this one’s mine. I love… Jesus! 😃” - this was when I definitely knew she was fantasising because ain’t no fucking way-
WAS THE DIRTY GIRL SONG SUPPOSED TO BE VIEWED AS HOT BECAUSE I AM VERY FLUSTERED AND CONFUSED AND TOTALLY VIBING WITH THE TUNE
🎵 DIRTY DIRTY GIRL WON’T YOU PRAY FOR ME🎵
You see, if Christian parents didn’t repress their teenager’s hormones and sexuality then MAYBE their teenagers wouldn’t resort to murder 🙃
Grace’s dad saying he’s going to get the plunger when she said she was doing a big poop 😭💀
Grace really thinks that impure thoughts only happen after marriage and I almost envy her innocence
“Money isn’t everything… looks are.” - yeah no that about sums people up in this day and age 😑
“We thought you were waifu material, but you’re just a bully” — NOT WAIFU MATERIAL 💀
PETE’S BLACK EYE NOOOO 😭🥺
Grace is kind of a psychopath and I’m loving that for her tbh
“I’m not comfortable with the plan if it involves that kind of language” but she’s comfortable with filming someone getting terrified and pissing their pants 💀
The “the place is not structurally sound” comment was DEFINITELY foreshadowing
“I get pus in my pits!” Jesus ☠️
🎵🤌🏻we’re gonna bully the bully🤌🏻🎵
“We’re gonna cut off his nips!” - what is with the obsession with n!pples in this show 😳
I’M SORRY BUT THIS IS ALL I COULD THINK ABOUT WHEN THEY TALKED ABOUT KEEPING THE BEANS COOL
Tumblr media
“You’re like super nice to me 😀” “…not really. I’m just doing the bare minimum here.” “You’re the best friend I’ve ever had.” “Oh, that’s sad!” — 😂😅🤣
“Okay, Richie, be honest… Am I reading as ghost or Lin Manuel Miranda” — OH FUCKING GOD IM CACKLING
“You kinda look like that homeless guy from downtown” 💀 FOURTH WALL BREAK?!?
Max must be VERY drunk because ain’t no way he thought Pete was a ghost or Ruth was actually a skeleton 💀
“Grace, we gotta abort the plan, it’s not working!” “It’s working for me, he’s so violent! 😍”
Not Max actually being touched by them putting this whole thing together for him 💀 very much giving off himbo vibes and I love him for that
MAX FELL THREE STOREYS
Oh my GOD THE FUCKING MAKE UP ON MAX FOR HIS DEATH SCENE HOLY SHIT
“NERDY! PRUDES! MUST! DIE!” — oh hey it’s the name of the show! 😃 And also it was written on the wall in… oh 😳
“I did get a lot of incriminating footage of us luring him here with malicious intent!” - uh oh
“My god! We’re going to jail! And with my luck, no one will even bother making me their bitch!” — PLEASE 💀
“It wasn’t murder, and it wasn’t an accident… it was an act of God! 😇” - Grace is UNHINGED
“No more tickling in our mommy spots!” - OUR WHAT SPOTS?!?
“🎵🤌🏻 We’re gonna bury the body! 🤌🏻🎵”
“Oh no she’s snapping again”
“I just cut off his nips 😌” - again with the nips?!?
DAN AND DONNA 😃😃😃
“Two weeks of heartache” - cut to all of his classmates happy without his influence 💀
STEPH PASSED THE TEST! 😃
“Ya know, this is really your C+.” “Oh Steph… you can keep it. It’d really bring down my GPA.”
Steph asking Pete out to the football game 🥹😁 we love to see it!
GO GO NIGHTHAWKS! 😃🦅 (I know it’s an eagle emoji there’s no hawk emoji 🙈)
“N, I-G, H-T… *squawk squawk* Ks!” 👏🏻🙌🏻
Richie is the team mascot and they wanted/needed him in the huddle 🥹
They apologised for bullying him 😭👏🏻
“And we’d like to apologise in advance for if Max ever comes back, ‘cause we’ll probably go right back to doing it”
“Fuck Clivesdale! Fuck ‘em straight to hell! Assholes!” — AGREED! 👏🏻
I’m 90% sure Jon actually struggled with taking that mascot top off but it worked well with the scene so 😌
Tumblr media
“I love being alive! 😃” — oh he’s so about to fucking die, isn’t he?
IT’S MAX CALLING FOR RICHIE HES BACK FROM THE DEAD
MAX’S COSTUME/MAKE UP IS AMAZING OH MY GOD 😌💅🏻
“Should’ve joined the smoke club you nerdy prude” — ANOTHER SMOKE CLUB REFERENCE
Every song on this soundtrack fucking slaps I LOVE IT
There’s not very many men that can pull off being absolutely absolutely fucking terrifying while dancing and singing across the stage but Will Branner managed it so kudos to him
The bit where Richie was repeating what Max said (“who will pray for me? When I’m gone?”) was INSANELY GOOD
“What did they find? You don’t say…you don’t say!” “What’d they find, dad?” “They didn’t say” - 💀
“Oh heck… I’m so hecking fudged”
“*relieved* Oh well we don’t know anything about that one!” “Or ANY one!”
“Maybe it’s a coincidence. People tell me to die every day!” — Okay why is Ruth kind of me 😭
THE FUCKING CAMEOS IN “HATCHET TOWN” ASDFGHJKL?!?! ZIGGY?! MAN IN A HURRY?!? GERALD MONROE?!?
“Ohhh I remember before the lockdown” - yeah me too 😅
THE BARBECUE MONOLOGUES GOT ME HOLLERING 💀
Ruth walking onto the stage and into the spotlight 🥺 literally she was me this whole scene omg I relate so hard to most of what she said ASDFGHJKL
Lauren ATE that song up by the way
MAX KILLED HER BY WEDGIE-ING HER IN TWO AND THEN PUT THE PANTS OVER HER HEAD WHAT THE FUCK MAX 😭
Him telling her to “project” so those in the back row could hear her triggered me so bad as an actor omg 😳
Grace really accusing the entirety of Clivesdale 💀
As soon as the WWJD bracelet was brought up I KNEW what was going on 😭
“Who’s plan was it, Grace?” “It was God’s plan! And now he’s leaving me out to dry! Do something, you son of a bitch!” 💀😅🤣
Grace has lost her fucking SHIT and I fully support that for her
“Show Me Your Hands” musical refrain?!
BEANIES?!? PAUL AND EMMA?!? 😭😭😭 ITS FUCKING PAUL AND EMMA I CANNOT-
“Cup of roasted coffee” refrain too?!?
PAUL GAVE EMMA HIS NUMBER 😭❤️

🎵”Don’t need a lover boy need a lover man / sure I’m a sapiosexual and you’re intellectual but I’ll cut my lover losses when I can” 🎵 — this song goes so hard omg
Grace pushing between them and shouting “leave room for Jesus!” 💀
“Do we need to get ahold of Ruth?” “Good luck getting ahold of her. Does your phone pls cover calls to hell?” “…Hell?” “She’s bisexual and dead, where else would she be?!?” — 💀
Grace whipping out the gun and telling Steph to cool her beans was so iconic of her
“(Canadian accent) ‘Cause if I’m going down, you hosers comin’ with me, eh” — OH MY FUCKING GOD
Doesn’t shock me a cop would arrest Paul for zero fucking reason, fuck the police 💀
“All I wanted was to be a regular girl with no sexual desire until she was safely married 😭” the FUCK-
“Don’t comfort her, she’s fuckin’ weird” 💀
“I don’t give a shit who you kill - but you just had to go and do it in that house, didn’t you?” — Mayor Lauter really said “murder is fine but NOT in that specific house, you fucking idiots”
THE LORDS IN BLACK?!? 😃 WIGGLY AND BLINKY AND POKEY AND NIBBLY AND TINKY?!?!? FUCK YEAAAAHH

Tumblr media
The fact Pete cherishes Steph and she cherishes him oh my hEART 😭
“Hey Steph, if things were different, would you wanna come to homecoming with me?” “I’d like that, Pete. I’d really like that.” - SHUT THE FUCK UP NO 😭😭😭

hii!! i love your writing and i was just wondering any tips on writing dean?
thank u so very much, and i am so honored u asked me this :,)
i definitely take most of my cues from the show directly. i watch it pretty often, and i'll rewatch certain seasons depending on what version of dean i wanna write. like, grumpy/funny dean in my cupid series is definitely a reflection of me watching season 9 while writing it.
other than that, i just try to incorporate little things i've noticed about dean. he'll run a hand over his mouth when he's frustrated. he's a chronic jaw clencher. his brows carry A LOT of his expressions. sometimes his brows and lips make an expression instead of him verbally responding. he winks, smirks, can do that cool-guy charming smile with ease. talks in a lot of 'hm', 'uh, huh', 'nuh, uh', 'ah' sounds. he's a nerd stuck in the body of a hot man. that for sure effects his humor and personality. he feels A LOT and feels it deeply. but he's selective in sharing what goin' on inside. that's gunna play a part to angsty moments. he's also like so violent and does have a sharp tempter—something i'll let peak through but fizzle it quickly by making reader his soft spot bc idk WHAT to do with angry mean dean. but also!! he feigns being so hard when really he wants to do stupid shit and laugh most of the time.
his dialogue is hardddd. he makes stupid jokes. kinda demanding. says 'no' and just like thinks it never needs to be explained further, so the other character has to be kinda pushy with him sometimes. good at deflecting with jokes. swears. i have a tendency to just overuse the dialogue tags 'grumbles', 'mutters', 'scowls', 'groans', 'smirks'
also, me, personally, i will never shut up about his eyes or his pretty face. i will be describing it in detail for no reason idc he's so pretty
i hope this made sense, i truly think dean just like lives in my head and i go into a psychosis when writing and just consult the voices

Warning: this is a tangent from a delusion being currently frothing at the mouth for Oathbound so everything said after this statement must be taken with the finest grain of salt because clearly delusion does not = reality but I’m too far gone to understand that lol
Okay, I don’t have any sort of evidence towards this besides an incredibly inaccurate gut feeling and my brain trying to connect dots towards.
So we know that Selwyn is a Gemini
BreeBree is a Scorpio
And Nick’s birthday hasn’t been revealed yet.
Okay, so something kinda tells me what Nick can potentially be a water or earth sign, ( I’m not knowledgeable about astrology in the slightest, but after looking up the compatibility charts for Scorpio I noticed that Gemini and Scorpio has the lowest compatibility with one another, which would probably describe Sel and Bree’s relationship. And then if you look at the highest compatibility it’s Pieces, Capricorn, Virgo, Cancer)
And because Oathbound is coming out in March something just told me that like what if she sorta planned it that way? So bloodmarked was originally supposed to come out in July which would be right at the time of Gemini season so it would’ve been a Selwyn birthday book release.
But instead it was released in November on Bree’s birthday which… idk it could just be the way publishers work and small bits of pieces not being 100% but it felt intentional? Yeah this is all a whack a doodle thought but I need to release it into the aether so I can get back to my life and stop this insanity of this series taking over every aspect of my day to day thoughts.
So yeah…. in conclusion, I think that’s Oathbound being released in March might be symbolic for the trios birthdays. As a nerd I feel like having little Easter eggs and stuff like that would be really cute for the fandom and then once the series is over we can pull together all the pieces of the puzzle.
I hope I’m wrong because I don’t want to be dragged further down into my rabbit hole of this craziness any longer by the time we have to wait for another 2-3 years for the 4th and final book.
Also… while I’m here. I don’t really buy into the whole Sel as the ShadowKings son. I think perhaps Valec being related to him is more believable because clearly there is some sort of relationship between the two there; also seeing as how he was prayed that he was dead after meeting up with Sel and Bree in the forest after that whole “ I can still taste you” scene.
Although!!! What I will say is, how interesting it would be if Selwyn’s mother was the Shadow Kings daughter!!! Yes I did say I don’t buy into the whole Sel being the shadow king thing but I do think it’s plausible for him to be related to him. For the regents to be so convinced about that her bloodline is so important that they forced her to sire a child. There is clearly so much more about the Kane family that has yet to be revealed. I sit eagerly at the edge of my seat waiting for the pen to drop and all is reveled.
Again no real evidence to support this besides random hunches and feelings..
I do hope we see more Dragon Bree because dragons have been brought up since legend born and I would love to see some kick ass vengeful dragon fight scenes. I also really want to know how Nick feels. ( in general) His side of this love triangle is hanging by a thread because the readers haven’t been able to peak into his head and understand what he has been thinking and feeling for awhile.
While Nick is being discussed I still haven’t forgiven him for not considering Bree’s safety after that whole Gala incident. Why was Sel more aware of the shitty position he put Briana in !? Even Briana was so overcome with the “ we did it Joe” celebration that she was too busy getting tongued down that I don’t even think she even processes that fact. That part enrages me even now when I think about that man. Because I see so many people shit on Selwyn for being a loose cannon ( which he is!!) but for a loose cannon to be the person making statements like
“ if that is your wish” after she tells him she’s come to say goodbye
Or the whole ‘no other Merlin monologue’ where he doesn’t even confess his feelings to her ( In fact he hasn’t even explicitly said what he wants or whether or not he is in love with her. As a reader we know based on his actions there is something there but who knows if that tree loving cambion will allow himself those feelings) he simply just wants her to be happy and alive so that the world doesn’t break and go dark.
And of course let’s not forget how he seems to see Bree for who she is. And that is someone completely insufferable , stubborn, annoying, while also being remarkable, stunning and beautiful.
Okay I know I am clearly biased but, it’s just hard to see Nick the same way since that scene, and I really want a redemption story for him in Oathbound

Update: just another thought
Since Sel is one of the few if not one of the only Merlin’s who can transform in to a bird. What if instead of the Shadow King he’s more directly related to Merlin than what the Regents have brainwashed him to believe all his life.
Related how? I’m not sure but after sleeping on it I think this makes more sense because how can we as readers completely ignore the fact that during one of Bree’s bloodwalks where she sees Merlin she finds it funny that even Merlin was known for saying
“ I am aware”
Which we know is such a Sel thing to say!!!
Like?!!!!!

What do you think about Jenny Nicholson's video about brony fandom? I wouldn't say it's outright bad but the part about "dark side of brony fandom" that I've recently watched rubbed me the wrong way in some places, like how she said that guys were homophobic because they didn't want to be seen as gay because of watching a show about colorful ponies. One of the guys said something like "you can't catch the gay by watching the show", and she showed this bit as proof for homophobia, isn't THINKING that a show can make you gay alone is homophobic? Or how she talked about "sexualizing fictional children"? All that stuff. This part of the video I don't really like...
I'm not watching that shit for the sake of my blood pressure.
All I'm going to say is that I'd like to remind you that Bronydom was at its peak in the early new tens, right before LGBT acceptance became as Mainstream as it is now (for better *and* for worse).
So like gee I dunno maybe there's a fucking REASON so many of us were so defensive that we weren't gay or sissies for liking the show.
And that reason being that before a certain pink cunt started a harassment campaign whose aftershock still echoes today with the same Parasitic RadFem Rhetoric that's infected virtually all nerd spaces today, the big group who insisted that we were all secretly pedophiles and bad people for the horrible crime of liking a cartoon pony show were Meatheaded Frat Douches whose egos were threatened by our lack of discomfort liking a girl's cartoon.
Man I love it when Self-righteous Lefties accuse you of being a bigot over something that you yourself are victimized by, don't you? It's the best! I totally don't feel bitter by years upon years of hearing the same moralizing bullshit over from people who CLAIM to be on my side, no not at all!
I love how normalized it is for Leftwingers to look at the natural defensive response people have in the face of being bullied and declare that you're a bad person for not liking being disrespected and told that you're something you factually aren't over something so ultimately trivial! It's so wonderful how these fucking people fundamentally just do not understand how being human works and will happily side with people they claim to hate if it means they have an excuse to dunk on other people they don't like or don't bow to their whims! I love it!
I especially love how people are STILL wringing their hands over pony porn while they flick their bean to smut from every single thing else THEY enjoy and refuse to leave us the fuck alone~! And that people care more about cartoon horses who DON'T EXIST than actual people who they're harassing and doxxing and otherwise being a raging cunt to~! It's so much fun~!! Definitely doesn't make me fucking enraged at all~!!!
