I needed to recover some HP after that last chapter T3T Here's a quick "Sword hugging nap" if it wasn't soul crushing ✨ Those warm, golden days. Did they ever have to end?~♡
I am once more reminded of how much of a peacock Jayce is sometimes. Just don’t call him pretty or compliment him to his face. If it’s a genuine enough one or from someone he is eyeing up / likes, he can get surprisingly flustered. But he’s also known for deflecting attention sometimes so he’ll turn it back on the other person with a compliment of his own —- see his ‘accidental rizz’ & confidence hc in his hc list pfff.
Other times, specifically after Arcane’s events when he’s more tired & overall less caring about how he appears to others, he reacts with instantly flirting back, taking it as a challenge to see how much he can be a pest. It’s a petty kind of suave. An easy one he can fall into given his time as the face of Hex-tech.
Either way, he does preen & thrive under attention, but his reaction strength to it varies depending on who his company is.

what are some features of others that arouse them,
or they find arousing in a sexual situation?
Touched on this in last ask, but eyes because of his love of eye contact. He knows some people are shy from that, don't like being watched, meanwhile he adores it because it can give him the chance to further fluster someone if he maintains it with confidence. He thinks it's greatly endearing, will always spark a need to tease, but it's also a thing he enjoys for the control he feels when he is successful in drawing embarrassment from his partner.
On the other hand . . . Being watched isn't a thing he's new to.
Being Piltover's ‘golden boy’ for as many years as he has been, the public's eye has always been pinned on him, scrutinizing each decision or new thing done with pre-established expectations. So he's used to the pressure of constantly performing. Usually it's exhausting, why in later years, he does spend most of his time cooped up in his labs solely fixating on his work, but in more intimate settings? Jayce adores it greatly.
He will preen under praise, soaking it up gladly & bloom with confidence. So having a partner that is also generous in doling out praise is something that adds more of a bonus, especially if they also aren't someone who shies away from prolonged eye contact. If he can see them watching him, taking him in the same mirrored way he does them without flinching — if instead, they readily show their own hunger — it's nothing short of perfect. In his eyes, he's lucked out.
Imagine how hurtful it must have been for Crowley to see Gabriel, the person who literally took an active part in the process of traumatising the man he loves into the mindset that he cannot be happy and free, get a happy ending. To see the man, who was one of the reasons Aziraphale haven't even acknowledged their relationship for such a long time, because they were on "opposite sides". The man who was one of the reasons they couldn't be together, even as friends, for 6000 years. The man who wanted to execute Aziraphale with a smile on his face and "shut your stupid mouth and die already" as his "goodbye". Seeing this man getting what Crowley has always dreamt of: being able to run away with the person he loves, leave Heaven and Hell behind and just be together with his beloved - in Soho or on Alpha Centauri, literally wherever, because "Heaven is wherever Beelzebub is". Crowley seeing Gabriel get it so... so effortlessly, while he has worked for it so long, nearly died because of it and still haven't been able to get that, to get the happy ending and sever all the connections with Heaven and Hell. It must have hurt like hell (most literally).
I was originally gonna wait until July to do this because that'll mark 3 years on E but I feel like now's a good time all things considered
With that out of the way lets start from the beginning AKA freshman year (AKA 2018)
This was on my way to band camp which is why you can see my trombone in the background (random fact: that was the only year I got to do marching band and our show was "the music of harry potter". yeah irony's a bitch ain't she?)
Graduation picture featuring the bestest boi Jinn :3
This pic is from 2020 because I switched to online and finished high school early out of spite (I was 16 here if you were wondering)
Now then this is from 2021 and was taken only about a week before I started hrt when I was 17
The lake in the background is Lake Superior in case you were wondering. Me and my mother were all the way up on the Keweenaw Peninsula for my family's 4th of July party held at the family farm
Moving on from that I started HRT on July 22 2021 (the appointment was at 9:30 am and I took my first dose at 7:42 pm yes I kept track)
This was taken like a half hour after my first dose (I actually don't really like this pic that much but I'm including it because it is important)
Fast forward from that a year to 2022 when I was 18 and here are a few pics of me around then one of which again featuring best boi Jinn
(it was windy out that day and he tried to bite me immediately after this lmao)
I've never been particularly good at taking selfies lmao
That brings us to now. I've been on hrt for about 2.5 years now if my math is correct. I'm pretty much living full time as a woman, started laser hair removal a couple months ago (next apt is actually tomorrow lol), and I'm working on getting my legal name and gender changed. It's been a long ride thus far and I don't really plan on stopping anytime soon so yeah here ya go
