#Love at Age 30

[catsafarithewriter]

v tired of coming out to ppl who are familiar and accepting of the aroace term, who then still turn around and say "yeah but you might still one day meet someone, right?" like I promise you most aspec ppl are aware it's an option, but it's still rude

I get you're trying to be supportive, but it still comes off as "don't worry, perhaps you're not really aroace/broken"

#work colleague: 'well i didnt find love until i was in my 30s' #okay but you still felt attraction??? you still knew you liked boys and girls from a young age?? #ace #asexual #aro #aromantic #aroace #aspec #maybe one day i will meet someone! #but there's a good chance any 'romantic' relationship i get into will be more a qpp #you wouldnt go up to a straight girl and go 'perhaps you havent met the right girl yet' #why is it okay to backseat diagnose an aspec's identity? #i am. tired

#ace attorney tag #maybe i should tag this narumitsu or something. but i dont really care. #gearing up to rereading/illustrating bits of my fic i suppose...i think nick really is too dense to realise he's in love with edgeworth #without some scheming fop trying to intrude. i love villains like kristoph..villains can be fun..witnessing their pathetic folly.. #or more like edgeworth would never have mentioned his feelings ever in his life if he wasn't sure phoenix reciprocates. #i want to see it this way because Falling in love during childhood with the person you're going to end up with. is not relatable #there have to be Situations that make you Realise. #as with orufrey i adore the idea of people not working out their romance with that person until their 30s+ #but... i mean. even with orufrey i often think how alaira could be qifrey's ex. and oru having been pursued by noble fops through his work #there is that delicate sliver of time before orufrey start living together that such believable situations could have happened. #Then the relief of politely and amicably extricating themselves from those untenable situations #the idea of falling in love age 7 and saving your first kiss for age 35 or something is all very well but more relatable is #people realising how they really feel whilst trying something that ends up feeling wrong. #The comfort and joy of living with your dearest one as if it's platonic - much preferable to trying anything more with anyone else. #But i doubt i will ever portray that or mention it further. it is indeed very delicate to me. #and i really am an OTP FOR LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! kind of person who can barely bear to consider this anyway...NOT a polyshipper i'm afraid ! #so i wouldn't mind either if they do have their first kiss in their lives age 35 with each other either. I would not mind that at all. #i love bi/gay couples apparently... bi father figures & their grumpy gay men waiting for them to work it all out... #not used to using colour in comic-style drawings..or at all..so this is messy and awkward looking..but colour is refreshing #i imagine i will go back to witch hat art soon btw. my destiny in life. #i still remember writing my nrmt fic expecting to write their first kiss & then partway through twas like Umm No. They have kissed prior. #does that really line up with this comic though... i think i had their early dinner dates/first kiss BEFORE disbarment. #so i guess this comic doesn't line up with my ficverse.... No..... U___U Oh well. sorry kris! <3

I don’t want to say this where this comment was added because while it was rb’ed from me, the root post isn’t mine and I don’t want to drag op in a circus tent. Do we really need to put homophobic on the highest shelf up from the tik tok folks?

This is about Kethric and ????? Homophobic coded??? Statistically and logically speaking, there are going to be queer people that you do not get along with and that you don't like in real life. That's just the way people are. And it's not because we're queer, it's because we're human

Kethric doesn’t hate Aylin because she’s a lesbian. He despises her because she is the child of Selûna, because he believes that she corrupted Isobel - not with queer cooties but with the love of a goddess who he felt betrayed him

If Aylin was a man, the hatred would not be diluted at all

#baldurs gate 3 #bg3 discourse #kethric thorm #if your hatred or annoyance with someone is caused by I don’t know? them always chewing with their mouth open? #you could not like them and that doesn’t make you homophobic if they're queer #If you hate a guy because he’s married to a man or because of the cadence in his voice thats being homophobic #being queer doesn’t give you a 'everyone loves me or they're homophobic' pass #please don't let this line of thinking bleed into real life #plenty of us are ass holes. its not cause we're queer its because we are humans with flaws just like everyone else #i didn't go check this person age but god i hope they're a kid and not 30

after my long post rambling about the possibilities of eldest sibling lu ten it was only natural that i doodle him. He shouldve been at the club

#imagine iroh was sent out to the front lines periodically and ozai was ozai so it was just lu ten and ursa in the palace for a while #IM HAUNTED BY THE POSSIBILITIES #being raised by a dude like ozai is lit one of the only reasons why zuko and azula loved (???) their jobs. (pre redemption zuko at least.) #so that just makes me wonder if iroh was a decent dad then maybe lu ten hated his job. loves his family. loves his people. Hates his job #sitting in an 7:30 meeting with nobles thrice his age fantasizing about what hed be doing if he was born the son of a shoe maker or smthn #probably sleeping. God that sounds nice #lu ten #iroh #ozai #ursa #zuko #azula #atla #avatar the last airbender #alicias art

Hello!! Question about clone^2, what are the styles of Danny and Damian? Like day to day stuff for example. Does Danny buy Damian the traditional 8 yr old clothes (dinosaurs with sunglasses tees, stuff like that) or does Damian already have a style he likes? And Danny! I know that Sam gives Danny various punk hairstyles and that he prefers gender neutral stuff but outside of that what would Danny wear in general?

You don’t have to answer of course, but I’ll give you a thank you in advance!

- kindest regards, Gas Can

I LOVE GETTING ASKS NO WORRIES MY GUY. AS MY FAVORITE SAYING GOES 'THE QUICKEST WAY TO STARRY'S HEART IS THROUGH HER ASK BOX'.

And I love this question, this is a good one!! If damian's 8 then he's been around the fenton house for about a year or so. I can't see baby dames ever willingly wearing traditional child-like clothes, at least not in the beginning when he first arrives at the Fenton house. Which he'd be around 6-7.

Danny tells him (with the help of google translate) that he's going shopping to buy him new clothes sometime during Damian's early stay since the little man had been wearing the same clothes he arrived in for a while (which you can find here with the reblog of the colored version) and honestly he probably asks damian if he wants to come along to pick something out. he doesn't know the kid's style and it might be a bad idea because damian might make a run for it, but danny's caught him before at this point.

(plus he'll need help carrying bags - his hands are freshly injured and still smarting. they're not as bad as they will be in the future, but hand injuries hurt. consider it repayment for being the cause of it, damian)

And early Damian would choose clothes that remind him most of the league - so dark colors, more formal styles, think like how you'd imagine his original template to dress like, if you will. Danny is side-eyeing him in judgy bewilderment, but says nothing other than to complain about the price tag. Of which Damian has no idea what he's saying. He'd stick with those clothes until he has his little moment with Danny in the OPS Center where he finally tells him he's a clone (even though Danny already knows) and that he doesn't want to go back. After that he'd reluctantly and steadily start branching out.

So eight year old Damian, whose begun to chill out more and act more like a child his age would? I don't think he'd ever wear graphic t-shirts about kids shows, but I can see him wearing graphic tees of like, animal facts on it, animals, stars, etc etc, and then plain shirts in a variety of increasing color. I have this mental image that Danny buys Damian one of those joke shirts that says "bro I'm 8" / "this is what an awesome eight year old looks like" (with two thumbs pointing at itself) and Damian wears it to school a week later. Damian's variety of shirts increases the more comfortable he gets and the more he comes into his own identity.

Damian also, steadily, keeps stealing Danny's flannels even if they're almost comically large on him. They're comfy and he's embracing his role as baby brother (and also he really looks up to him because he understands, to an extent, of what danny's done for him). Danny and the Fentons start buying Damian his own after a while because, well, he can't keep taking Danny's.

And Danny! I'm so glad you mentioned Danny, my favorite GNC boy. I keep forgetting myself sometimes that I gave him long hair, even if it is my favorite thing about him. And honestly? Danny doesn't really do much with his hair if Sam isn't styling it. He usually lets it stay down on his head, and then pulls it back into a ponytail or a half-ponytail at school depending on what he's doing (gym vs a test).

He keeps it in a ponytail as phantom to keep it out of his face, and then when he's working on a Ghost Case he sometimes has it up in a (messy™) bun because the feeling of having his hair on his neck when its in a ponytail drives him nuts, especially when sleep deprived. Sam teaches him how to braid it back into a simple braid and its become a new fidget for him to braid his hair and then unbraid it. It's easier to keep off his face than a ponytail, so he sometimes braids it back when he's sneaking out as phantom. It happens more often once he gets skilled at it.

And danny's style! I know you probably only meant his hairstyle, but I also wanna talk about his aesthetic! He doesn't really put much into his appearance. Very teenager-y boy 'threw on the first thing i saw on a hanger/floor' type, but he kinda has a bit more of a casual, soft grungy-like look as an older teen. Just some hints of Sam's influence - and you know what, some of Tucker's as well because that's his best friend too.

(Off topic but 19yo Danny from my Childhood Friends Dead On Main au has a similar style that's a bit soft punk as well, and that is somewhat more intentional on CFAU Danny's part. Why make an au if I can't play dress up with my favorite character? :))

Mostly because I read a Spider-Man x DP fic that described Danny (from an outsider's pov) as looking kinda like a skater boy who listens to alt rock music and it's been my personal interpretation of him ever since. So he has band tees, flannels, graphic tees with jokes on them, shirts with astronomy facts on them, and idk if he'd ever buy ripped jeans but Sam has certainly bought him some and they fit so *shrugs* he wears them. And he has one or two of those denim jackets with the hoodie sewn inside it. And from Tucker he has a few turtlenecks because Tucker reads as a turtleneck-kinda guy, geek chic-ish.

After reading your Konig hcs I just want to hold that man bruv :( Kiss his pretty face until he tells me to stop and whisper the corniest, sweet nothings to him like???

LORD GIVE ME THAT TRAUMATISED MIDDLE AGED MAN and I'll treat him like a princess.

I have to stand up, I know 😔🙏 my bad

oh my gosh he would melt ): ..

someone? doting on him? sitting in his lap, pressing kisses to each little line and dip in his face, at the corners of his mouth and even his forehead?! there’s not even a thought in his head, everything’s just flooding his poor heart. he can’t even recall the last time it’s beat this fast. even having a bullet whizz past him on the field… that adrenaline would pale in comparison.

of course he will bashfully shush you, try to counter every sweet word with those of his own, spoken breathless and clumsy but entirely sincere!!

he won’t admit just how flustered that he is, nor how much your attention means, even when you point out just how quickly his heart is beating and how pink the tips of his ears have turned, but he would commit that moment to memory forever. definitely writes down every sweet word you said to read later, too. ^^

#do we think he has a bit of a complex about being considered middle aged? #he has missed out on the love and excitement most have experienced in their youth and onwards.. #probably considers himself ‘mid 30s/40s years young’… has to to exacerbate that when someone cute does talk to him! #this loser deserves nothing but our love <3

I may have been hit with several genetic curses but at least I also have some grey hairs at age 24. This is not sarcasm

#theyre becoming numerous enough that i can see them in the mirror even when im not combing my hair or looking for greys #there's probably 10-20 of them total and i love each and every one 🥰 if im fully salt and pepper by age 30 ill consider my life a success

It's a little weird, but I really like when the age gap between the batkids is like 1 or 2 years

20 - Dick

19 - Jason

19 - Cass

18 - Tim

18 - Steph

17 - Duke

13 - Damian

my main things are i never want dick to be gen z and i never want tim to be younger than 19. i used to have jay at 19 too but now that i actually am 19 i realize jay is absolutely not my age. plus i feel like tim in uni makes a lot of sense. also cass for me is always at least one year older than jay.

Imagine a pro hero Bakugo who lets only you call him by his first name. And exclusively calls you doll.

Pro hero Bakugo who will wear his mask in bed and will roll play like Dynamite just saved you from a disaster and you have to repay him ~somehow~

Pro hero Bakugo who’s 27 now and is a man. He’s learned to control his temper and his rage, so when you argue he doesn’t burn the whole building down.

Pro hero Bakugo who likes to dominate you in bed. Reducing you to a blubbering mess as he smacks your ass till it’s beet red, and then tenderly kisses it and will even ice it for you depending on how lost in the moment he gets.

Pro hero Bakugo who will pull your hair and sulks if one gets pulled off your head. As much as he wants to please you by being rough he forgets how strong he is sometimes.

Pro hero Bakugo who loves soft and fucks hard. Who trains daily and has burn marks all over his body from his younger more unstable days. Who still rages when he gets in the gym. Who will absolutely destroy the earth if anything ever happens to you.

Pro hero Bakugo loves to take you out on dates and will get dressed in his nice clothes that he bought from all the ads he’s modeled in.

Just some thoughts about an older and wiser version of Bakugo. I’d be reduced to absolute ashes if he was a teacher in this show

#I’m so in love with his potential future self #not the canon one we see but the older wiser bakugo #like truly who let me froth over this? #he’s so real to me #I bet he cleans up nice in his 30s #pro hero bakugo x reader #pro hero bakugou #aged up bakugo #bakugou katsuki
