K'diwa: A Steamy Novel of Interspecies Romance, by Jim Kirk

by branwyn

Jim wrote a romance novel just to prove he could. Then someone leaked it on the public Starfleet server, and suddenly his embarrassingly smutty and sentimental Human/Vulcan love story is all over campus. Luckily for Jim, no one knows that he’s the author. Unluckily for Jim, someone forwarded the novel to the staff of the Vulcan embassy. Now, every Vulcan in San Francisco is reassessing the logical merits of taking Human bondmates.

Spock reads a Human/Vulcan romance novel because he can hardly avoid it. Suddenly, he is consumed by the need to locate the author, ascertain their wellbeing, and instruct them in the way of Vulcan mating bonds. Luckily for Spock, it doesn't take long to identify the author as Jim Kirk. Unluckily for Spock, Jim is unconscious and surrounded by interested Vulcans who also read the book.

-

Tears. All the tears (happy/relieved tears at the heart-bursting reunions). A really fun premise with a lot of affirming love and care and reconnecting with family. But I will say that the tags do not encapsulate how much of the story is about healing from Jim's trauma. (And this is a fragile-jim fic. Worst Frank, traumatic Tarsus, post-Tarsus struggles, abusive ex Gary... it's all in there and while it's not invasively graphic there are more than enough in-text hints/flashbacks that could be really upsetting or triggering for someone). So know your limits, this fic is not steamy or graphic in it's description but it is heavy in other ways and focuses a lot on Jim's coping and recovery with a lot of fluff and adoring Spock.

Appreciation for this art from Zero Year by Greg Capullo and FCO Plascencia, because these kinds of dark but paradoxically vibrant colours are exactly what I'd like to see utilized more in Batman movies/media.

WE NEED MORE MIKE SCHMIDT CONTENT

Cw: 18+, feminization, mommy kink, (Mike basically likes calling you mommy)

Pairing: Mike Schmidt x Top Male Reader

Thinking about Mike with a mommy kink, something you accidentally discover one day when you got him spread out on your bed, your cock bullying into his slick hole as the usually words of praise rolled off of your tongue.

He’s so lost in pleasure, tears trickling down his cheeks, and white knuckling the sheets as you fuck into him, he doesn’t realize he’d loudly uttered the word “mommy”, not until he feels your hips slow their pace, doe eyes meeting your surprised gaze and releasing the sheets to cover his face.

“Fuck fuck shit - I’m sorry” he grunts out while roughly rubbing at his face.

“Hey, hey Mike” you say, awkwardly trying to use a hand to pry his own away from his face, all while trying to maintain your balance. “It’s okay” you say when you his teary eyes peak through his fingers, a sort of sniffling sound escapes him before he turns his face away and wipes his tears away.

“No it’s fucking weird you don’t have to - there’s no need to- can you just”he says exasperated, hands flailing in the air, gesturing to the way you’re still buried inside him.

“No” you say, face serious and voice firm. There’s a flash of surprise on his face but it’s quickly replaced with confusion.

“Wha-“

“I said it’s okay Mike” you say, tone stripped off amusement and dipping into something much darker, while slowly staring to roll your hips. “Matter - ah matter of fact, think it’s fucking hot” you say, and instead of a reply a slight moan slips past his lips.

“Yeah?” he finally manages to croaks out in reply, eyes fluttering, back arching up as your hips set a steady pace.

“Yeah baby, now -ah now be a good boy for mommy and let me take care of you yeah?”

Truly, my sympathies to people watching IWTV and are getting tired/bored of different perspectives. I'm not bored or even remotely tired.

Interviews by their very nature are perspective based. The story has this specific framing. As did the first book. They added to it with Armand now being an active participant and Daniel being more seasoned at interviewing. I understand how Armand's very edited and hyperbolic take on events that Book Lestat describes in The Vampire Lestat rubs people the wrong way. I do think that one could argue the way Lestat writes his own autobiography is the objective truth (note Armand in his book does not contradict Lestat). However, sorry to say, there is never an objective truth. The truth is always subjective.

I was raised by a whole family of lawyers and if I learned anything is that you can spin things in any way, but an objective truth will never exist. Not in crime, not in person to person storytelling, not in fictional storytelling. Hell, viewers seeing the SAME show CANNOT come to a consensus. Why? Because we all put our thoughts, experiences, and feelings to it. That's all perspective.

We see Louis give Armand a kiss in bed. Some think aw domestic and cute. Some think Louis is deliberately withholding and rewarding Armand for good behaviour. Some saw the act they put on in E2 as some version of truth and domesticity and some think it's only an act. Some think Dreamstat is actual Lestat out there somewhere and some think it's Louis' conscience.

Yes, the narrative will confirm one thought or another on some things but not all of them. They're deliberately left up to interpretation. Something btw, Lestat urges the reader to do in TVL when he does not go into details about his time with Louis and Claudia. And part of that has to do with perspective.

We could have a straightforward narrative with no corrections and no perspectives. But would that be as interesting as seeing how minds that far exceed our own twist and bend and interpret events? Would it be as interesting as seeing a vampire who tells himself a story so that he can carry on living despite being miserable? Would it be as interesting as this vampire who tells himself a story get pushback on what he's saying by someone who notices errors and inconsistencies? Would it be an interview at all? Or would it be, as Daniel put it in the very first episode, "a fever dream told to an idiot."

If you want a straightforward non-challenging version of the story, the 1994 movie exists. It's not perfect and a lot of details are missing, but there's only one, unchallenged perspective to it. And even then...how many people didn't (want to) see the queerness in it?

TL;DR I get being frustrated or tired or bored by the way the show is trying to tell the story, but at least it's doing something a little different and not word for word.

#interview with the vampire #amc iwtv #it doesn't have to be everyone's cup of tea #i just find it really interesting that a bunch of people want a more basic form of storytelling #i don't agree with every choice made but they're doing something different and i appreciate it #and i don't mean different as in revolutionary #i mean different for this specific source #and even then #marius tells his own story #pandora tells hers #armand tells his #daniel tells a very specific part of his life to lestat #as does jesse #maharet tells us the origins of akasha and that's written down as fucking mental hearsay because lestat wasn't there when she told the stor #like i get that yeah it's lestat's story etc but there's other stories too and who tells them is always additionally fascinating #because i say tell their story but a lot is narrated to someone else #please don't flame me this is just my opinion #i know im probably in the minority

started another bucktommy wip 🙈 they consumed me, and im not even mad haha

I was just thinking at work and thought about buck telling tommy about the will (this is gonna get there i promise lol and I think the sperm donor thing too bc this is bucktommy endgame fic and buck wants it all out there haha)

ngl im lowkey annoyed bc I had a whole convo in my head and it was so good, but couldn't write it down and forgot half of it, but I think it came back to me more or less haha

___

In Buck's defense, he doesn’t mean to ask this question right then. It just slips out. He's lying in the big, strong arms of his very hot, amazing boyfriend, both sweaty and still breathless. He’s blissed out and fucked out, and so content and still dizzy after a mindblowing orgasm. He doesn’t have a lot of control over his thoughts and words right now. So he surprises even himself when the question flies out of him.

“Do you want to have children?” he asks casually, absentmindedly playing with their intertwined fingers where they're splayed on his chest.

“What?” Tommy asks, surprise and even shock evident in his voice, and only then Buck realizes what he said, and he feels his eyes widen and face starts to burn, and he stares at the ceiling, but feels Tommy’s gaze on the side of his head.

“I- I- I mean, like ever, some day, down the line- not like- I mean, you know, I- I just thought we should talk about it if- if- if it’s going where I hope it’s going- because I- we’ve been together for a while and I hope that- I think I-” he starts rambling and stumbling over his words, panicking just a little bit. Fuck, they’ve been doing so good the past few months, it’s honestly his best relationship he’s been in, probably the longest, too, and now he goes and screws it up by being too much, too soon, too serious-

“Evan.” Tommy’s hand lands on his cheek, and he gently turns Buck’s head towards himself. He meets Tommy’s soft gaze, and relaxes a little instantly. Tommy doesn’t look freaked out, just surprised, but there’s a hint of a smile dancing on his lips.

Some notes on Nigel from my modern adult AU, where all their adventures were just them playing pretend as kids and now they're grown up.

I always liked the cancer theory for Nigel, so I went with that. (what can I say, I love angst...) He left because the US healthcare system is a joke.

I made this for outfits, but it kinda just evolved into random notes.

#torras art #codename kids next door #knd #modern adult au #nigel uno #a reminder that if this au isn't your cup of tea you don't have to interact with it #idk if or when I'll do the others #everyone's would be different I would not draw everyone in their undies I only did so with Nigel to show how scrawny and sickly he looks #don't worry he's slowly gaining the weight back #I hc that he also just has a high metabolism in general #one of those guys who can just pack away 40billion calories like it's nothing #I looked up so many things on cancer just to make sure I wasn't spewing nonsense that google probably thinks I have cancer now #also he's had cancer since he was like 7... before he even joined the KND #he blamed his hair loss on the DCFDTL and they rolled with it because they just wanted to be included in their pretend game #even if they were the bad guys #his cancer went into remission for a while but started to come back towards the end of the series

I am chewing on your art like a powered up Pac-man. You've made me very interested in trying out a Kamen rider show. What's a good starting point?

:D! thank you! I will never NOT be happy to get people to watch more Kamen Rider, soon everyone will be converted and my evil plan will be complete. >:)

one of the nice things about Kamen Rider is that most of the shows are standalone and (aside from things like crossover movies) don't require watching any of the others to understand. so you can kinda just pick one that sounds interesting and try it out! I have a few personal recs in this post, or you can check out the wikipedia list (under Main Series)!

after some thought, I'm also gonna like...soft-rec Fourze and Gaim, with the caveat that they are not at all the typical Rider tone (Fourze has a much more cheerful and sillier style than usual, and Gaim is a rollercoaster ride through a bizarro fruit-themed weirdoland) (this is not a negative). they're pretty divisive because of that, but I know they've been a few other people's entry points, and I liked them both personally, so! Fourze's head writer also wrote Gurren Lagann, and Gaim's wrote Madoka Magica, and their respective styles are extremely evident in both, so if you're familiar with those then take that as a plus or minus as you will. :')

#kamen rider #children's shows are serious business #AND SPEAKING OF PACMAN: there was a crossover movie where two of them teamed up to fight a giant evil pacman and it was great #(the main antagonist was a pacman-themed villain who was also an evil doctor) (his name was dr. pacman) #just gotta bring that up every chance i get because c'mon #seriously though i know rider and tokusatsu in general is not everyone's cup of tea. but i do really appreciate people giving it a chance! #it's a lot of guys in superhero suits having emotions while swinging foam swords at rubber monsters #accompanied by some of the worst cgi you've ever seen in your life #and i love every second of it

[ourflagmakesmeferal]

You're allowed to be dissapointed with epsiode 6 and 7, just saying. You don't have to absolutely adore every epsiode to still love the show. You can point out that it felt rushed and you should point out that the budget got slashed. I love this show more than any other piece of media I've ever consumed. I also know that they could have done so much more if they were given the recourses, and they deserved those resources.

#You're allowed to voice dissatisfaction guys #the shows still a masterpiece even if a couple epsiodes werent everyones cup of tea #our flag means death #ofmd #ofmd season 2
