kinktober masterlist.
Tumblr media
jay threw a camera beside you on the bed that you two shared, causing you to look up from your phone. you raised your eyebrows at him, confused over what the camera was supposed to be used for. your boyfriend plopped himself beside you, resting against the headboard with both of his arms behind his head. "you know how i'm going on tour in a few days?"
you let out a sigh at his reminder "no need to remind me." jay brought you close by putting his arm around your shoulders, resting your head on his shoulder. he placed a kiss on the top of your head before saying, "it’s okay, baby. i’ll be back soon. but i thought we could maybe try something before i leave?" you lifted your head off his shoulder, staring up at him, waiting for him to continue on.
"could we film us having sex?" he asks, shifting his gaze from you to the camera he tossed on the bed. your eyes widened at his question, "what?! are you serious?" jay looked away to avoid making eye contact with you and fiddled with his thumps in his lap. he shrugged his shoulders and said, "i don’t know. just so i have something to watch while i’m gone. since we can’t do anything, you know..”
"i don’t know, jay. i’ve never done that before." he cupped your cheeks with the palms of his hands and placed a kiss on your forehead "hey. i won’t show it to anyone or let anyone see it, okay? it’ll be just for my eyes only." you looked at him in his eyes, which were soft yet filled with lust at the same time. you nodded to agree to film the sex tape, but you were still nervous about it deep down.
jay removed himself from next to you on the bed and walked to the closet of the bedroom. he pulled out something that looked like a tripod and quickly set up the camera on it, having it point directly towards you. you rubbed the sides of your arms as you watched him continue to set up. he looked up from the camera and noticed you looking anxious. he shot you his beautiful smile to reassure you, which helped you calm down a little bit.
"are you ready?" he asks you. you give him a small nod in response. "okay. then get undressed for me, baby." jay clicked a button on the camera, and a small red dot appears, indicating that he started recording. you began stripping off your clothes as jay walked over to you, towering over you on the bed. once your blouse and pants were removed, he helped you remove your bra, revealing your perfect tits that jay happened to be obsessed with.
you couldn’t help but act shy towards jay’s acts because you knew the camera was recording. yet as soon as his lips touched the skin on your neck, your body relaxed as you let out a small sigh. jay knew your body better than you knew your own. you became so delicate under his touch, wanting him to feel every inch of you.
you felt jay cup both of your breasts in his hands as his lips trailed down from your neck to your chest. he released one hand from your breast to insert his hand in between your legs. you flinched at the sudden contact of his fingers on your heat. he could see how wet you were already, and he whispered, "all wet and ready for me like the good girl you are."
his words along with his touch made you even wetter, and jay could sure feel it. he smirked against your skin before moving down towards the spit in between your thighs. jay was now face to face with your cunt, and you gasped at the feeling of his lips kissing your heat through your panties. his nose rubbed against your clit as he did so, causing you to instantly grip the bed sheets and slightly arch your back.
you glanced at the camera for a second to check if it was still recording, and it was. you looked back down at jay who was already looking back at you. he gripped the sides of your panties, slowly sliding them down your legs. you kept your legs wide to make it easier for him to take them off of you.
jay had successfully removed your panties, giving him a clear view of your cunt glistening from your slick. "your pussy is always so pretty when it’s wet for me." you found your hands making their way into jay’s hair as he connected his mouth to your heat. his tongue slid between your folds, and you were in heaven. his nose nudged your clit as he fucked your hole with his tongue.
your hands gripped at his hair as you felt the familiar knot in your stomach growing stronger and stronger. jay's tongue then moved up to your clit, licking in circles until your legs shook. he gripped your hips to hold you down as your breath started to pick up. you felt yourself getting closer to your high.
"fuck, jay. i'm cumming" you loudly moaned as jay continued to lick your clit as you rode out your orgasm. jay left kitty licks on your heat as you finally caught your breath. he got up from between your legs and got on top of you, leaning down to place a kiss on your lips. you kissed him back as he started to kiss you rough, leaving the sweet taste of you in your mouth.
jay looked back behind him to check the camera, nodding to himself that it was still rolling. you looked down at his pants, noticing the now-formed tent in his crotch. your hands made their way to his belt, unbuckling it and quickly pulling his pants down afterwards. you then assist him in removing his underwear, revealing his hard cock. jay looked down at you with a smirk as he pumped himself a few times before positioning himself at your entrance.
"i’m almost there, jay" you breathed out as he kept a steady pace with his strokes. "m-me too, baby. fuck i can feel you tightening around me." jay’s thrusts began to turn sloppy as he reached closer to his orgasm. you were right there with him before both of you let out moans, reaching your climaxes.
jay kept up with his sloppy strokes before finally coming to a stop, removing himself from inside you as he releases his cum all over your stomach. he fell beside you on the bed, causing you to turn your head to look at him. sweat was dripping down his brow as his chest rose and fell due to his slightly heavy breathing. he turned his head to you, seeing that you were already staring at him, which brought a grin to his face. jay got out of bed and went to the bathroom, quickly returning with a towel to clean you up. as you were cleaning his release off of your body, he walked to the camera and pressed the button again to stop recording.
he walked back over to the bed and laid down beside you again, wrapping his arm around your waist, pulling him closer to you, and placing a kiss on your forehead. you snuggled into his body before saying, "i’m going to miss you so much." a sad smile replaced jay’s grin, "i’ll miss you even more. but i promise i’ll be back soon."

Tumblr media
"Come on! Ask him out!" K whispered, nudging you in Kang Taehyun's direction.
"I can't do this right now! I'm nervous—seriously, calm down!" You attempted to hold your ground, even pushing back, but the inevitable draw towards your crush seemed unstoppable.
"Stop playing matchmaker at the moment!"
"You need to make a move! You both complement each other so well! You, the energetic one, and him, the quiet one—it's a perfect match, if you ask me!" After a final nudge from K, you found yourself right next to Taehyun, who was seated at his desk, engrossed in a book with earbuds in. Well, fuck.
Sensing your presence, your crush, Kang Taehyun, glanced up, his eyebrow arching in mild surprise. Cursing your nerves, you hastily fished out a folded piece of paper from your pocket. Placing it on his desk, you offered a fleeting smile before dashing away.
You locked eyes with K, shooting him a fierce glare. "K, you're in trouble."
"Hey! I helped you—" K's protest was cut short as you chased him out of the classroom, eliciting a yelp. "I'm sorry!"
Meanwhile, Taehyun observed the scene, a small smile gracing his lips at the commotion. Returning his focus to the piece of paper, he carefully unfolded it.
"Here’s my number: XXX-XXX-XXXX.
Let’s go out?"
Despite his typically reserved and aloof nature, Taehyun found himself smiling, a faint pink tint gracing his cheeks—an unfamiliar but welcome sensation for him.
Tumblr media
"And then—holy shit!" You exclaimed, eyes widened as you stared at your phone screen. Your heart raced far faster than usual, but who wouldn't get excited over something like this? "He actually texted me!"
"Who?" Nicholas barely showed any reaction but was still curious about the source of your unexpected excitement. “The quiet loser?”
You playfully hit his arm, causing him to wince and rub the spot. “No need to diss my future boyfriend now.”
“Okay, now you're delusional—and your taste in men is terrible too?”
“Oh fuck off, Nicholas,” you retorted, your eyes fixed on your phone, a smile spreading across your face as you read Taehyun's messages.
Hey YN, it’s Taehyun.
So, where do you wanna go?
You quickly typed up a response, “There’s a lovely spot not too far from here. Beautiful trees and a bench made for two. Oh, and there's a chance of snow today! It could be the perfect moment…unless you're not a fan of snow?”
He read your messages, and at this point, you were practically biting your fingernails, hoping he shared your affection for winter. It was your favorite season, with its enchanting snow and the opportunity to wear layers of cozy clothing.
That sounds wonderful. I love the snow :)
When?
With a sense of relief, you quickly arranged for the date to happen today, and you couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement when Taehyun agreed. "I can't believe I just set up a date."
“I still don’t know what you see in him.”
“Stop being a mood killer, Nicho.”
Tumblr media
You were spot on—tonight, snowfall was abundant, and Taehyun faced biting winds that blew the snowflakes into his face. Extending his hand, the snowflakes delicately settled in his palm, melting at his touch. At least the snow was pretty today.
Glancing at the time on his phone—6 PM, precisely on schedule—he approached the location. It was indeed a charming sight. The lights cast a soft glow above the bench, creating an atmosphere purposefully crafted for a romantic encounter for two. A smile graced his face; everything seemed just perfect, tailored to his ideal kind of date.
Sitting down on the bench, he looked around, hoping to catch a glimpse of you at any moment. He waited.
And waited.
An hour had passed, and you hadn’t arrived. Taehyun was puzzled; where could you be? He was confident about the time—6 PM and the location you had chosen. His phone suddenly chimed, a notification he hoped was from you, but instead, it was a text from an unknown number.
You really think YN would go on a date with someone like you?
The text hit him like a ton of bricks.
She's popular, you're not. Why would she waste her time on a loser like you?
Doubt crept in, making his heart sink.
He felt a wave of nausea rising, his grip on the phone tightening, his fingers nearly turning numb. Did he raise his hopes for nothing? Did he really think that you were going to be different from the rest? The biting cold made it increasingly hard for him to catch his breath—how he despised the sensations coursing through him.
Nervously, his fingers hovered over your contact, finally pressing the call button. He didn’t know what he was doing, but it just felt like the right thing. Anxiously, he chewed on his lip while waiting on the line, and soon, he heard shuffling in the background. His eyes widened at how quickly you picked up the phone.
"Hey Taehyun?" Your voice sounded surprisingly calm on your end.
"Where are you?" he asked, trying to maintain composure, but the cold and wind were beginning to make him sound shaken up.
“I’m here with Nicholas—why do you ask?”
Taehyun should’ve known.
“So I’ve been waiting out here in the cold for no reason?”
“Huh?”
“The date you wanted to go on, YN. God, can you stop acting oblivious and tell me how you actually feel about me?” Taehyun feels the anger getting to him, his voice already rising.
“But the date is set to 8 PM? Wait, did I not tell you that?”
“That’s just a fucking excuse, isn’t it?”
“No, I thought I told you 8 PM? Oh my god—Taehyun, I’m so sorry. It’s a mistake, I swear!” You felt panicked, re-reading the text message you sent, realizing your mistake.
“Yeah right.” he just couldn’t help but chuckle at his situation.
“Taehyun, you have to believe me—” But he cut you off, “I already know how you feel. Thanks for playing with me—oh, and most important, thanks for ruining winter for me.”
“Wait—” But Taehyun hung up before you could continue. He had too many thoughts swirling in his head to deal with everything at that moment.
Taehyun sat alone on the snow-covered bench, the bitter cold seeping into him as he felt the disappointment and frustration swirl within. His emotions were a chaotic mess, a blend of anger, hurt, and the numbing chill of the winter night. The twinkling lights above seemed to mock his shattered hopes.
As he walked away, his shoulders weighed heavy with a mix of resentment and sorrow. Winter, once his beloved season, was now tarnished by this painful memory.
With a heavy heart, Taehyun knew this winter would forever hold a bitter taste, a season stained by a shattered promise and unfulfilled expectations.

WORK-IN-PROGRESS : A Secretaire desk
Not really a guide, but can be interesting for those who would like to know how I create an object or a set. Originally I wrote this essay for a course at my uni but I translated and simplified it.
💡☝️ INSPO
The secretaire desk is an iconic piece of Biedermeier furniture. My fascination with the elegant yet straightforward style is beyond measure.
Tumblr media
🧊🕸️ MODELLING
I used Blender for modelling. (I made it when I was still using the old 2.7 version.) The design process for the object consumed a significant amount of my time, spanning a total of three hours.
Tumblr media
After I finish making the model, I need to do something called "unfolding." This means turning the 3D object into a 2D mesh. Once that's done, I "burn" the shadows onto it, which gives it the final look you see below.
Tumblr media
🎨🖌️ TEXTURE
After that, I use the Sims 4 Studio program. This is where I make sure that the object looks right with its texture and I decide how it should act in the game.
To create the special intarsia effect, I use patterns that I've already prepared in Photoshop. I carefully rotate and arrange them until they fit just right. It takes a lot of time, but the final outcome is totally worth it.
Tumblr media
🌐✨ NORMAL & SPECULAR MAP
The Normal map is really important for objects with low levels of detail. It determines how light behaves on different surfaces. With the Normal map, even a surface that looks completely smooth can actually appear uneven when light shines on it. This creates the illusion of more intricate details without slowing down the game's performance.
In the game, they use a simpler version of the Normal map called the Bump map. To make it, I use a plugin in Photoshop and save it in a specific format called .DDS. I have to tweak the channels and choose the right settings to get it just right.
When I apply the Bump map to my Biedermeier writing cabinet with shelves, it creates small shadows at the edges of the shelves when light hits the center. This makes the shelves stand out from the flat surface and adds depth to the object.
Tumblr media
The shine of an object is controlled by the specular map. It determines how reflective the surface appears, whether it's a shiny metal, a glossy glass, or a completely matte material. By adjusting the color values, we can create different types of shine.
In this project, I want to achieve a specific type of shine that looks like wax or honey. Fortunately, I already have a template ready for this. I just need to find it and apply it to the object in the program.
📊📐SIMS 4 STUDIO SETTINGS
After that, I need to make a bunch of tweaks to make sure the object works properly in the game. It involves doing both small and big adjustments. For example, I add tags to make it easy to find in the catalog, figure out how the surface should look, find the right spots where other objects can connect to it, decide where chairs and writing surfaces should go, and more. The first picture shows how things are set up by default, while the second one shows the changes I've made.
Throughout this whole process, I have to carefully figure out the exact positions for different parts using a coordinate system. It can be a bit tiresome and take up a lot of time.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
📈 💼 WORK IN PROGRESS
First, I made a work-in-progress picture. This is how I announce the new collection.
Tumblr media
💃🎞️ GIF
In the post, there's a gif that demonstrates various color combinations. Creating this gif involves a careful and detailed process. I have to take individual photos of all 16 color combinations for each of the two cabinets. Afterward, I need to carefully match and merge these photos together. Finally, I use an online Gif maker site to edit and finalize the gif.
Tumblr media
📷🖼️ PREVIEW PIC
I spent a good 2 hours setting up the scene, and it wasn't easy finding the right items and creating the perfect environment. Editing the image also took me another 2 hours, as I paid close attention to every little detail.
Out of the three images you see above, the first one is the default color scheme generated by the game itself. The second image, on the other hand, was created using a program called Reshade. It's an extra tool you have to install separately, and its main purpose is to change the lighting inside the game. It adds depth and creates a whole different atmosphere. As for the third image, that's what it looks like after I adjusted the colors in Photoshop. And finally, I added shadows and highlights to the image to give it a more three-dimensional and immersive feel.
Tumblr media
I hope you enjoyed this post and see you soon. The release date of the set is tomorrow!

A better Christmas
💌 pairing : Yang jungwon x oc 🎞️ GENRE : fluff , costumer x barista 800 wc
Warning : jungwon just went through a break up on Christmas.
Masterlist to my other works
Tumblr media
Jungwon stepped into the warm glow of Y/N's cafe, the chill warm colored Christmas night clinging to him like a shadow. The bell above the door chimed softly as he entered, drawing Y/N's attention from behind the counter. Her eyes met his, and for a moment, there was a silent understanding. Well was be going to be happy after his girl- I mean ex girlfriend broke up with him ok Christmas Day.
Y/n sensed the heaviness in Jungwon's demeanor, the weight of a recent breakup etched across his face, she could tell every costumers story just by looking at their face. It was Christmas Day, a time when joy should abound, even during the day time many lovely people filled the café, but for him, she could tell he was having a lonely night. She decided to be the warmth he needed.
As the last customer, Jungwon took a seat by the window, his gaze lost in the swirling snow outside. Y/n, compassionate and perceptive, prepared a comforting cup of hot chocolate. The steam curled into the air, a tangible reassurance that some warmth remained in the world.
Setting the cup before him, Y/N spoke gently, "I hope this warms you up a little. Christmas can be tough sometimes."
Jungwon managed a faint smile, appreciating the genuine concern in her eyes. The warmth of the hot chocolate seeped into his cold soul as he touches the delicate mug, providing solace even if just for a moment. Y/n continued with her duties, but her attention lingered on him, sensing the need for more than just a beverage.
After a while, Y/N decided to close up the shop, realizing the solitude Jungwon faced and how he was very much still in his thoughts. As she locked the door, she invited him to join her at a nearby table. "You don't have to be alone tonight. Sometimes sharing the pain makes it a little easier to bear."
They sat in the dimly lit cafe, the Christmas lights casting a soft glow. “She broke up with me..” that’s what jungwon said, as he looks up to y/n, a gorgeous yet beautiful and kind women that just made his Christmas a little bit better by listened to him pouring his his heart out, the wounds of a broken relationship still raw. She offered words of comfort and understanding, a soothing balm to his wounded spirit. “I know it hurts to separate with your ex partner in such a special day, but trust me your worth more than her.”
As the night wore on, Y/N's compassionate presence became a source of solace for Jungwon. The weight on his shoulders seemed to lift, if only slightly. He realized that in the midst of heartbreak, a connection had blossomed – an unexpected friendship that held the promise of healing. Jungwon smiling from time to time at her lovely stories. His dimple showing and for once, someone noticed how adorable it was - and it was y/n.
When it was time for Jungwon to leave, Y/n walked him to the bus stop. The snowfall had intensified, creating a serene backdrop to their parting. Before boarding his bus, Jungwon turned to her with gratitude in his eyes. "Thank you for being there tonight. You made a difficult day a little easier to bear," he said, his voice carrying a newfound warmth.
Y/n smiled, "You're always welcome here. Take care, and remember, you're not alone." She said as she waved good bye to him, continue to walk back to her apartment down the road.
In the following days, Jungwon found himself drawn to y/n’s cafe like a moth to a flame. He sought refuge in the familiarity of her company, finding comfort in the simple moments they shared. Y/n with her empathetic nature, welcomed him without judgment, understanding the fragility of healing hearts.
Their conversations ranged from lighthearted banter to the depths of their personal experiences. Y/n became a confidante, and Jungwon, in turn, offered his support and friendship. The cafe transformed into a sanctuary for both, a place where the wounds of the past could be acknowledged and, eventually, mended.
As weeks turned into months, the pain that once gripped Jungwon began to loosen its hold. Y/n’s kindness and companionship played a crucial role in his healing process. The bond they forged over shared stories and laughter grew stronger with each passing day.
One evening, as the sun dipped below the horizon, casting hues of orange and pink across the sky, Jungwon looked at Y/N with a genuine smile. "You know, you've been my saving grace. I can't thank you enough." Y/N chuckled, "We all need someone to lean on. I'm just glad I could be that someone for you."
Their friendship deepened, transcending the initial connection formed on that lonely Christmas night. Jungwon continued to visit the cafe, not out of a lingering sadness, but because he found solace in the warmth of y/n’s presence. The cafe, once a refuge in times of sorrow, became a symbol of newfound joy and a better Christmas for the both.

My Family's Old Film Camera (from the 90s) [feat. my Paper Dolls]
🟢dA Version [CLICK ME!]🟢
Hello, August! Let's step aside my 2023 problem, for now, and set back to the old memory lane with this careful piece and prize possession memory yet outdated device, shall we? And no, I won't make a full ledge review about this.
My deviation work & 1st to 4th Image(s): ↑
• What you see here is a "Focus-35" 35mm focus-free film camera from the 90s 📷🎞️ (or 2000s?), with the old logo of "Chowking" restaurant [1985 - 1999] (a famous Filipino-Chinese style restaurant [CLICK ME!]). It's a generic film camera that can be used during the aforementioned year, and during my early age, I don't know how to use it except by clicking the buttons pretending that I'm shooting a picture without a film. Yes, I did that back when the 90s; were shined from TV shows, commercials, cheap food, and awesome moments unlike now. No offense, 2023.
• Nonetheless, we usually have 2 or 3 of these, but now there are scrap & and forgotten, but not this one! Thank goodness, we have that in our family's possession, and you can see it is 100% intact from front to back and even the interior. Hmmm... You know, this might be useful if only I have a fresh spare of film cameras, after all, some companies have decided to produce old-style film cameras for the nostalgic hipsters/users who want it over modern style counterparts. But, purchasing a film camera of today could be hard to swallow for my wallet. Although, there are cheap prices, but the image quality could be subpar & and not worth the price tag. *sigh* Maybe someday, my good'ol camera. And did I mention, that we have an older film camera than this generic one? However, I'm not sure where my parents put it. No worries, though, I'll look around & and I'll save it for September. (Just in case, that my PC replacement part is not yet found)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
5th to 8th Image(s): ↑
• Right now, I'm still stuck at my mom's laptop, while my paper dolls are having fun with my family's old film cam. Pretending that I'm taking snapshots at them, even though I don't have a real roll-on negative film. But hey, I have camera on my smartphone, duh. hehe 📸📲😅
Well, that's all for now! And the end of my topic.
If you haven't seen my previous topic, then please click down below. ↓
• RIP My GPU Card (7/24/23)

System answers questions!
Hello! We're back with a new set of questions [here] by @councilsys
I: basics
❤️ - what type of CDD do you have? I believe it's OSDD-1b
🧡 - are you medically recognised/diagnosed? if not, do you plan to? (no judgement either way!) I'm not diagnosed yet, but I'm working on it, even though my psychologist said "we're too stable"
💛 - if you are comfortable sharing, what is your headcount? do you keep track of it? We do on Simply Plural. And the headcount is 44/45.
💚 - do you have a high or low split tolerance? Something in the middle? I don't know how to describe it.
💙 - do you switch frequently or do you go longer periods between switching? Depends on what's happening....when it's calm around, we stay still in front
💜 - does your system have introjects of any kind? Yeah, we do. Osamu Dazai from BSD, Kindred ( and both Lamb and Wolf separately) from LOL, Crowley from GO and more
🩷 - do you have any subsystems? Yes, two -
II: alters
🎥 - who are your frequent fronters? Ashton, Nyx and Sadie
📼 - do you have any non-human alters? if yes, which species are the majority of them? I do have, but there is no leading species
🎞️ - do the alters in your system use more medical coined roles or more community coined roles? or both/neither? do you find them useful? I believe both, and yes, those are useful as hell
📽️ - are the alters in your system more distinct or less distinct from each other? Depends I guess....some of them are less distinct other are more...
📺 - do you make/buy gifts to other alters in the systems? We, whenever go shopping, buy some sweets for the littles
🎙️ - does the taste in music vary a lot between different alters? Yeah, we explained that here
📻 - does your system have any type of in system relationships? (familial, romantic, platonic etc.) We have Kindred and both of them separately, Lamb and Wolf, so it is kind of a relationship Bakerin has a crush on Chef
III: switching
☀️ - how much amnesia do you experience? Little to none, it's very distant for us
🌙 - do you experience black out amnesia? Don't think so
⚡️ - what does switching feel like for you? does it vary between alters? It's mostly a strong headache, zone out sometimes, and that's it
☄️ - do you experience quick switches or does it take longer to switch usually? Those are rather quick
🌈 - do you get frontstuck often? what do you do to try to get ‘un-stuck’? Yeah, Ashton does. But we do nothing about it, he kinda enjoys that, he's alone there and it's perfect for him
☁️ - do you ever not notice you’ve switched, and suddenly realise that ‘you haven’t been you’ for a while? Yeah, sometimes we do
💦 - can you switch ‘on command’ or is that something that is hard for your system? does it depend on the alter? It depends on the alter, those who have like a specific role they appear when they are needed

<<Part 6
🍿🎞️🍿
Present Day
I put the Army report from 1945 down and looked with compassion at Bucky.   He was looking at his hands, clasping and unclasping them, displaying some anxiety.
"This is Steve's actual report?" I asked.  "When he thought you were dead?"
"Yeah," he replied quietly.  "My lawyer got copies of everything made from the Army archives when I had to face charges for being the Winter Soldier."
"He was devastated when he thought you died," I noted.  "Do you think that's partly why he took so many chances, trying to make up for not saving you?"
Bucky shrugged.  "Who knows?  I do know that when he recognized me in 2014, he felt tremendous guilt for not going back and looking for me in 1945.  Steve told me a lot that wasn't written down in the official reports before he went back."
"He didn't even stay to make sure you were going to be pardoned?" 
That must have come across as opinionated because Bucky frowned.
"He had his reasons to leave." 
Bucky's tone was defensive, and I could see his jaw was set in a way that indicated he was displeased.  Even though we'd only known each other for a few weeks I was already attuned to his moods.  His face softened and he took my hand in his.
"June don't mind me," he said softly.  "I know I get defensive about Steve leaving.  He never felt comfortable in this future.  He did ask me to go back but I had changed so much I just didn't think I could handle the 1940s anymore."
"But you could have been with your parents and your sister," I answered.  "Instead he left you here alone.  When he did go back, why didn't he try to find you and rescue you then?"
I touched his face with my palm then withdrew it when he smiled shyly at me.  In the few weeks since we met we had kissed after dates but really hadn't gone any further.  Not that we didn't want to but Bucky wanted to take our time until we became intimate.
"I actually did see them, my mother and sister anyway," he said, then took the report from my hands, cleared the pictures from the table, and filed them all back in the box.  "But those stories are for another day.  As for the other, maybe he did but just wasn't successful."
He picked the box up and put it in his storage room then returned to the couch and sat next to me, turning to his side so he could touch the ends of my hair.  Despite his reticence to get physical with me he had no qualms about the little touches, like playing with my hair, putting his arms around me, or holding hands.  It was sweet and quite a change from the presumptuous octopus moves of some previous dates.
"Tell me about this party," he said, all of his attention on me.
"Well, it's our staff Christmas party," I said.  "It's at a burlesque cabaret with a 1930s-1940s theme.  We get to see the show, then they have a private party room we can use.  Music will be jazzy 1930s-1950s and they want us in period costume."
A grin crossed his face.  "Burlesque in my day wasn't exactly where a guy took a girl on a date, at least not a decent girl."
"Oh, and you know that how?" I asked, tickling his side a little.
"I went a few times, mostly when I was going through a dry spell."  His face blushed as he spoke.  "How does current burlesque match up with old burlesque?  It could be pretty racy back in the day."
"I don't know," I replied.  "I've never been but one of our reference librarians works part time as a dancer at the cabaret.  She said it's a little risqué and a lot of fun."
"Wait, librarians can work in burlesque?" He shook his head in amazement.  "In my day they were usually old spinsters, although I guess they were young once."
"Hey, I'm a librarian, and technically a spinster," I declared.  "I even have a tattoo."
"Really?" He started looking at my exposed skin with a cheeky grin.  "Where?"
Now it was my turn to blush.  "Inside my left hip, if you must know.  I got it on my 21st birthday, a rose, the flower for June."
His smile was something else and I knew he was likely picturing it in his mind.  It had been an impulse at the time, something my best friend talked me into.  It also hurt so much I never got another. 
"Sounds like it might be a fun time," he said.  "Do your friends know who you're dating?"
"One or two," I answered.  "We're thinking of having a movie night soon if you want to meet more of my friends.  I'd like you to meet them."
"Can I think about it?  The party that is.  Movie night sounds alright.  How about tomorrow night for that?"
I kissed him on the cheek, making him smile softly again.  He was pretty accommodating.  Thinking back to our first date he called an Uber to pick us up, then held the door open and offered me his hand as I entered the vehicle.  He was just as solicitous when we arrived at the restaurant, a seafood place.  Sam must have recommended it as the manager asked Bucky how Sam was doing since they hadn't seen him for some time.  The manager looked with interest at me.
"Who do we have the pleasure of serving tonight?" he asked.
"This is my date June," replied Bucky.  "June, this is André, the manager here.  Sam and I have been here for lunch but this is the first time I've been here for dinner with a date."
André offered me his hand and shook it.  "We'll take good care of you both."
He gave us a few recommendations for food and the wine to go with our choices then made sure we were served promptly.  After that he kept a buffer of empty tables around us until it became busy enough for him to start seating people nearby.  Bucky didn't say much that first date, letting me babble on about books, movies, music, my family and friends.  I realized I was dominating the conversation and stopped.  He just looked at me with this sweet expression on his face.
"I'm sorry, I was talking too much," I said.  "I do that when I'm nervous."
"I don't think you were talking too much, June," he replied.  "I like listening to you.  You're a unique woman, with a lot of interests."
"Well, it should be more back and forth," I countered.  "What about you?  What do you like?"
He took a breath.  "Well, I like eating, and dancing," he began.  "Not the dancing they do now but close dancing, like they did in the 1940s.  Alcohol doesn't affect me any more because of my metabolism but I do like the taste.  There are some TV shows I don't mind but a lot of it doesn't make sense to me.  Like why would people want to watch other people living in a house and plotting against each other?  I don't get that.  Some things should be private, you know?  Movies, well, some of them I like and some of them I don't."
I couldn't disagree with him on his assessment of some TV shows as I knew what he meant.  As for movies, I liked pretty much everything except bloody horror but there were some movies that were an acquired taste.  After dinner we went to a lounge that played jazz and old standards.  Bucky took me onto the dance floor where I could see first hand why he liked dancing.  He was very good and I wondered if he had a lot of girlfriends back in the day.  At one point he lowered his face so that his mouth was next to my ear.
"What are you thinking about?" he asked.
I looked up at him.  Even though I was 5'9'' he was over 6 feet tall by my estimation and it was kind of nice to look up at a man whose arms were around me, especially a handsome one.  His blue eyes gazed into mine and for a moment I wasn't sure I could speak.  But his eyes were calm and he seemed genuinely interested in my thoughts.
"Just wondering if your good dancing skills indicated you were popular with the ladies back in the 1940s," I replied.
He blushed a little as he smiled, slightly embarrassed, I think.
"I had quite a few girlfriends," he admitted.  "Nothing serious.  I was more into having a good time."
"How good a time?" Now I was deliberately being cheeky.
Bucky laughed outright then looked at me.  "You really want me to say it?  I think the term now is player but in the 1940s I would have been referred to as doll dizzy.  Not that I was a bad guy.  I never forced a girl into going to bed with me.  I had a lot of dates that never went that far, sometimes with the same woman if I enjoyed her company."
I wanted to ask where I fit in, but I held my tongue, and we danced without talking for some time.  After one last drink we decided to call it a night and we took an Uber back to the apartment building.  We stood outside my apartment door for a moment before Bucky gently put his hands around my waist and bent down to kiss me.  It was lovely, and sweet, and I almost asked him in, but he spoke first.
"When I was young I would probably talk myself into your apartment at this point but I'm not that guy anymore," he said quietly.  "I'm looking for something special so I would like to take our time getting to know each other better before we take it to another level."
It was unexpected and not entirely unwelcome.  That he was being a gentleman was obvious and he continued to be a gentleman since that night.  Now, as we sat on the couch watching TV, I must have been too quiet while I reflected on our first date as he stroked my hand to get my attention.
"You were somewhere else," said Bucky.  "We don't have to watch TV if it bores you."
"It's not that," I replied.  "I was just thinking that we've been dating for a few weeks and haven't ... you know.  My friends aren't going to believe that we're not yet physical."
"Do you tell them such things?" he asked.
"Well, not details," I replied.  "But it's been a while for me, a couple of years.  How long has it been for you?"
He blushed (God, I loved that) then sighed.  "I had a date that wanted to go straight to sex before we even finished dinner at her place last year.  She wanted me to do things to her that frankly kind of shocked me.  I'm no prude but it was a bit much even for me and I left without even kissing her goodnight.  Before then was in 2017 when I was in Wakanda.  Before then I don't really want to talk about because it happened while I was the Winter Soldier."
"I'm sorry, I didn't want to bring up bad memories," I said, feeling terrible for him. 
There was an uncomfortable silence between us and Bucky gently turned my face towards him.
"I was often abused and forced to abuse others," he said softly.  "Even the few that weren't abused by the Winter Soldier affected me.  It's something that I still see a therapist about and it's also partly why I want to wait to be with you.  I don't want to hurt you because I care about you and hope we do have something special."
"Oh, Bucky." I was mortified.  "Please forgive me."
"It's alright, really.  You should know about them anyways.  It doesn't mean I don't want you because I do, very much.  You're so beautiful and it takes a lot not to get carried away when we're close."
"Really?" I hadn't expected to hear that, having been told before that I wasn't all that desirable and should feel lucky that someone wanted to even go out with me, never mind taking it further.
"June, sweetheart, you're it for me," he said in a low, very sexy voice. 
He threaded his flesh hand into my hair and kissed me in a way that I had never experienced before.  It was electric as his soft lips and tongue teased me to where I felt the heat of desire beginning deep inside me.  We both broke away at the same time and he looked at me with those blue eyes then kissed my forehead. 
"I better go home," I whispered.  "That was some kiss."
"My thoughts exactly," he said back.  "Let me know about movie night."
He didn't get up from the couch; instead he watched me as I went to his door.  I realized he was likely aroused and smiled to myself that I had that effect on him.  When I went into my apartment I went to the bathroom and could hear his shower turn on as our bathrooms shared a common wall.  Closing the door behind me I went to turn the TV on then I texted my friends about having movie night at my place the following night.  Four of my friends agreed to come over, two of them wanted to bring their boyfriends.  We would decide what to watch once everyone was over.
I worked the following day and headed to the grocery story after to pick up snacks for everyone.  I knew that my friend Ingrid liked Chicago mix popcorn, Sherry liked buttery movie style microwave popcorn, Danielle liked Cheetos, and Irene liked regular potato chips and onion dip.  For myself I grabbed a medium cheese and meat platter, figuring Bucky would like that, then some crackers, beer, soda, and coolers.  If we wanted to eat between movies we would order in pizza, Chinese food, or Thai food.  While I was there I received a text from Bucky.
Bucky: Sam wants to come.  Is that alright?
June: What snack food does he like?
He didn't answer for a bit so I gathered he was asking Sam. 
Bucky: Said he'll bring his own.  Looking forward to meeting your friends.
June: Me too ❤️
I texted him when I parked in my spot and he came out of the security door to help me carry the snacks and drinks back in.  He looked at the different snack foods as he unpacked the bags, happy with the meat and cheese platter.  Sam texted to say he was at the door and Bucky buzzed him in, telling him to come to my apartment.  When he arrived at the door he was bearing a sizeable pot containing fresh shrimp that had been caught that day, and all the ingredients for a shrimp boil.
"You didn't have to do this, Sam," I said to him as he pulled everything out.
"It's my pleasure," he said.  "I've been cooking since I was a kid.  Wanted your friends to be impressed with your new friends, especially me.  This won't take long to prepare and we can sit around the table and eat with our hands between movies.  Best way to get to know each other."
"Sam does know what he's doing," affirmed Bucky.  "We'll have to open a window as it will get fragrant in here."
My first two friends arrived, Irene and Sherry, with their dates following them in.  The two men became very excited when I introduced them to Bucky and Sam, displaying some serious fanboy vibes.
"Ted, Irene, Ben and Sherry, this is Bucky Barnes, and Sam Wilson.  Bucky and I are dating."
"Holy shit, June, how did you meet these guys?" asked Ted, stepping forward first to shake hands with Bucky then Sam.
"We're neighbours," said Bucky, in his low key way.
Sam enlisted their help to prepare the shrimp, showing how to devein and peel them, except for the tails.  By the time my other two friends arrived he had all the prep work done and grabbed himself a beer.
"Ingrid, Danielle, this is Bucky Barnes and Sam Wilson," I said.  "Bucky is my boyfriend."
He beamed when I said that.  Danielle was almost dumbstruck.  "You know Captain America and Bucky Barnes?  Why am I just finding this out now?"
"Maybe because you've been out of town for work for a couple of weeks," said Ingrid.  "Bucky, pleased to meet you.  Sam, you look much better in person than you do on TV."
"Well, thank you," he replied.  "Which one of you is the burlesque dancer?"
All five women broke out in laughter and Ingrid put her hand up.  "That would be me and you've probably heard about the staff party.  You want to come as my date?"
"You have to come, both of you," said Ben to Sam and Bucky.  "It's risqué but fun.  Much more entertaining than a pole dancer at a stripper bar, not that I go to those since I started dating Sherry.  They even get the drag queens involved sometimes and they are so entertaining."
Bucky leaned towards me and whispered in my ear.  "Do you really want me to come?"
I nodded, then put my arm around his waist, feeling nothing but muscle.  "I kind of want to show you off."
"We'll go then," he said, kissing me on the side of the head.
The others decided to start movie night with Casablanca, thinking it would be something Bucky would like to see.  He shrugged, saying he did see it during the war, and it was okay.  That set off a discussion of all the different phrases that came from the movie, then how iconic it was as a cinema masterpiece.  We started watching it because it was obvious some people were passionate about it.  I sat on the floor below Bucky as he sat in the armchair as there wasn't enough room for everyone on the couch.  He offered to switch places, but I didn't want to impose.  So, being a man of action, he leaned down and whispered an alternative.  I looked at him and he raised his eyebrows as if it were the best solution.  Offering me a hand I got up and sat on his lap shifting until he nodded and put his arm around me.
"I'm not too heavy?" I asked, still mindful that I was a bigger woman.
"Perfect," he whispered into my ear.
To be honest, it was great being so close with his arm around me.  In a way he was showing my friends how he felt about me.  During the more romantic parts of the movie, I leaned my head against him, and he shifted again so that I was more comfortable.  Sam got up with about 30 minutes left in the movie and filled up the big pot with water, putting it on the stove to start boiling.  He also put the potatoes on to boil.  Then he came back to watch the end of the movie.  By then the water in the big pot was boiling and he put the corn in.  He followed that by the sausages then the shrimp.  As Sam watched the colour of the shrimp Bucky organized everyone to lay newspaper down on the tabletop then plates.  Sam kept a little bit of the broth that the shrimp was cooking in then poured off the rest and assembled the food on two baking sheets, drizzling the food with the broth, melted butter, lemon, and seasoning.  Finally, he brought out a full roll of paper towels, tearing off several sheets for each person.
"This is all meant to be eaten with your hands," he said, with a big smile.  "It's going to be messy but great.  Dig in."
For the next ten minutes there was only the sound of chewing, groans and moans of satisfaction.  It was amazing.  Ingrid finished eating a shrimp, wiped her hands and mouth on a paper towel, took a drink of her beer and looked at Sam.
"Do you have a girlfriend or a wife?" she asked point blank.  Sam shook his head.  "Want one?  That was so fucking good, Sam.  My God, I've lived in New Orleans for 4 years and I've never, ever had this before."
"You haven't been hanging out with the right people," he said.  "If you lived near Delacroix we'd have this every other week, at least.  You want to go out sometime?"
"Hell yes," said Ingrid.  "Where have you been all my life?"
Bucky smiled at Sam, who smiled back, looking smug.  We ate every single morsel of food on those two large cookie sheets.  Cleanup was easy, as the plates went into the dishwasher, the cookie sheets and two pots were washed in the sink and the newspaper was bundled up, put into a garbage bag and taken out to the trash chute.  After wiping down the table and counters everyone was ready for movie number two.  The others were going over the list on the TV, coming up with a shortlist of choices.
"Okay, we have When Harry Met Sally," said Ingrid, "or Crazy, Stupid, Love, or Crazy, Rich Asians, or Princess Bride, or Ocean's Eleven."
"I don't want to watch anything with crazy in the title," said Ted, who was seconded by Ben.
"When Harry Met Sally is so 1980s," said Danielle, shrugging.
We took a vote and with Bucky as the last voter it was tied 4-4 for the remaining two choices.  I looked at him.
"I have no idea what each movie is even about," he said.
"Well, Princess Bride is a tongue-in-cheek fairy tale," I explained, "Ocean's Eleven is a heist movie set in Las Vegas.  They're both good but you might enjoy the heist movie more."
"Because I'm a guy?" he asked with a slight grin on his face.  "Just for that I choose the fairy tale."
He sat down on the arm chair, patted his lap and I settled down on it again.  We watched the movie and he seemed to enjoy it but I think he was more amused at all of us who said the lines in tandem with the characters throughout it.  When it was over nearly everyone got up to stretch their legs while a few went out to the balcony to have a cigarette.  I started to get up off of Bucky's lap and he stopped me, looking at me with those big blue eyes.
"Bucky," I said, as he wrapped his arms around me.  "Don't you want to stretch your legs?"
"I can do it later," he said.  "Ingrid seems to be having a good time."
I looked at her standing close to Sam, flirting in that easy way she had and Sam flirting right back.  It wasn't surprising as she was quite extroverted.  Bucky's hand went down my back and I turned back to see a look on his face that I saw briefly the day before when he gave me that amazing kiss.
"What is it?" I asked.
"Just thinking of my therapist saying that I would know when I was ready to be more intimate," he said.  "Yesterday, I wasn't.  Tonight ....  Would you be bothered if I asked if I could stay over?"
"No, I would like it if you did," I replied, suddenly feeling a little warm.
His beautiful smile came out and my heart jumped a little.  He was so handsome, with an incredible body and was everything in a man that I never thought would be interested in me.  Gently, his right hand went into my hair, and he kissed me like he did the day before.  At that moment his phone went off, vibrating against my leg and I jumped a little.  Sam's went off as well and both men looked at each other, just knowing it wasn't going to be good.  Bucky pulled his phone out, looked at the message then replied to the text.  He smiled grimly and looked disappointed.
"We have a mission," he said.  "We have to leave within the hour.  Guess I'm asking for a rain check."
He kissed me again, tenderly, and stroked my face.  As I stood up I looked over at Sam, exchanging his phone with Ingrid for their contact information then he kissed her on the cheek and looked over at Bucky.
"I have my case and go bag in the truck," he said.  "I just need to text Sarah."  He looked at Ingrid.  "My sister.  I live with her."
Bucky pulled me by the hand to his place and unlocked the door.  While I waited, he quickly checked his go bag then turned out the lights before stopping at the door to the hallway.  The kiss he gave me then was like nothing I had ever experienced before.  His soft lips felt incredible as his tongue explored mine.  When he pulled away all I could think of was how good it felt to be in his arms and to be kissed like it was the last kiss we would ever share. 
"I'll call or text you if I can," he said as he bent his forehead to mine.  "If you don't hear from me it's because the mission is classified and we're on a communications blackout.  We'll pick up where we left off, I promise you."
I got one more kiss to remember as he pressed his body against me, pushing me into the wall.  It was erotic and sexy as hell, and left no uncertainty of what I could expect when he returned.  Back in my apartment he and Sam made their goodbyes to my friends, promised to come to the staff party, and then they were gone.  My friends all told me how lucky I was to be dating such a hot guy then Ingrid put her hand on my arm and gave me a look.  She knew that it was now more than dating.  Until Bucky returned I wouldn't know how much more it would be.

#about me
People I want to get to know better:
Fun!  Thank you to @clintbeifong for the tag (and apologies for the slow response)! 💛
Last song: “Remember Me As a Time of Day,” by Explosions in the Sky, which is the last song on my private iTunes GSR fic playlist (the public, WIP version of which can be found here).  You can also access the public (Spotify) version by searching my username (same as this one).  My private version is up to 171 songs (and is still, always, growing); the public version currently has 114 tracks.  (On Spotify, I also have a fun early ‘90s playlist for the soundtrack to my ficwip 5k AU story from this summer, “One Life Stand.”) 🎵
Favourite colour: All sorts of variations of the colour blue. 💙
Currently watching: I am currently doing a very distracted re-watch of early seasons of The X-Files.  (I really don’t want to be abducted by that ‘ship, too, though.) 👽
Last movie: The Apartment (1960) with Jack Lemon and Shirley MacLaine.  (Highly recommended, if you like that sort of thing!  I was watching for the first time, but it’s also beloved by Liz Vassey, if you don’t want to take my or the Academy Award-voters’ words on it!) 🎞️
Sweet/savoury/spicy: Oooh, my favourite is really the sweet/savoury combo—e.g., splitting brunch foods (something with whipped cream and maple syrup and something with hollandaise sauce), pineapple in/on savoury foods (yes, this includes pizza if it’s American-style not Italian), salted chocolate (or salted chocolate chip cookies, or salted chocolate rye cookie ice cream...), etc.  I love them both, but I think, if I had to choose one item to be the last I ever ate, it would be a big bowl of chocolate mousse with whipped cream and strawberries, so I’ll have to go with sweet. 🍫🍓
Relationship status: Single. 💁‍♀️
Current obsession: Like you have to ask.  The online expression of my GSR love may be on a semi-hiatus, but the love itself is still very, very real.  (Also I’m about to start another CSI re-watch, but I’ve been putting it off because I think I’m going to drive everyone around me insane.) 💕
Last thing I Googled: I’m trying to learn how to make a Tumblr gif-set properly (with zero Photoshop experience), so I’ve been reading Tumblr tutorials and googling various things about that. 💻
I’d like to get to know everyone better, so, if you would like to participate, please consider yourself tagged! 💛
Finally, this last bit has nothing to do with the above (it’s not part of the tag game!), but I made this in the summer after @clintbeifong posted one, and I never got around to posting mine, so I am sharing it now for the cuteness.  (It’s so cute! 💛🐶)

🎞️+abra
oh this is such a difficult question-
I was gonna say it's Age of Ultron but tbh that is my favourite for her and Clint.
for Abra herself, my favourite is The Avengers.
It's her first real step into becoming a hero, but it's before the crushing reality of her situation sets in so she's at crossroads where she's still a complete goof when she wants to be, but she's also slowly realizing that becoming a superhero is- the inevitable and inescapable outcome to this situation.
plus it's the movie that kickstarts her friendship with Steve which is one of my favourite things ever.
this era for her is really <3
Tumblr media
send me 🎞️ + an oc and i’ll tell you my favourite episode / movie for them and why.

IMO so diligent with the end-of-month wrap up already in my inbox sheesh!! 💌💨 will answer asap BUT b4 I forget myself/make u have to wait long on my behalf - ur October roundup plzzzzz & did u watch good (or bad) horror movies? 🧟‍♀️🎞️
CAS 🤭😁 yes it’s my favourite part of the month 🥰 this was very book heavy this month i think because i gave myself parameters to read within. black history month means black authors and i already owned quite a few
october wrap up
harlem shuffle by colson whitehead
i wanted to love this book so much it’d been on my radar for over a year but it just missed the mark for me. i think harlem felt so alive and real, but this really suffered from poor writing choices. i can absolutely do a book told on dual timelines and changing tenses, but the way it went from present to past was just so confusing. slippery pov’s that weren’t consistent. janky sentence structure ruined the flow. the lead character has no evolution of thoughts and feelings, and still thinks of himself the same throughout the book which i don’t get as an intentional writing thing, but a poor characterisation thing. found a great playlist for it though
if beale street could talk by james baldwin
i’m sold on james baldwin. this book is phenomenal. again in harlem (completely unintentional!) there’s something so beautiful in the sadness of this book.
honey & spice by bolu babalola
i’m too old for this book. mind you, i’m 23 and a romance enjoyer. the only positive i have for this is the fluidness of the dialogue between kiki and kai. everything else, however, i had major problems with. the pop culture references really dated this book, if i didn’t already know the author was 30, i’d know for sure reading this. very cringe and not very convincing as a romance. way too over descriptive and the racism subplot was so jarring
open water by caleb azumah nelson
i haven’t reread a book since i read jacqueline wilson as a child. but it was so necessary to beat the literary snob allegations. just as, if not more empowering the second time round. such an all encompassing read that reads like poetry without the pretentiousness. one of my favourite books for sure
memphis by tara m. stringfellow
i’ve only ever read generational sagas, but i do think this was able to do something interesting in the 300 pages. i personally enjoy going into books blind but would say check triggers. it’s not amazingly written, but the story and what the author had to say on women in the family and women as a community made up for it.
queenie by candice carty-williams
i didn’t think i’d like this book going off how it’s spoken about. this is what all the other annoying 20something in the city making poor decision books have tried to do and missed the mark. the main reason for that is because there are actually people in queenie’s life supporting her and most importantly, liking her. i liked it a lot more because her being from a black british jamaican background is very real to me, personally.
the death of vivek oji by akwaeke emezi
i need more people to be upfront about the incest in this book when recommending. to withhold that information is in very bad faith, but i’ve read it after having it on my list for close to a year. it is as good as the tiktok girlies say, actually. the author has a real talent there’s something so compelling and immersive in both the setting, the characters, the way grief is written and gender identity explored. i am going to read pet after this and maybe freshwater
how the one armed sister sweeps her house by cherie jones
i started this back in may and had to put it down because it was just SO triggering and hard to read, but i’m so, so glad i came back to it. it’s grotesque, gruesome, an unflinching look at trauma and abuse, but is still a commendable account of barbados in the 70s. it’s definitely not for everyone, but this is genuinely a phenomenal book well worth the read to me, personally
the dangers of smoking in bed by mariana enriquez
not a black author. i was on the coach back from gatwick airport and only had like 4 books downloaded to pick from. so i chose a horror book for the season. didn’t like this at all really. i’ve only read one other short story anthology and i didn’t really like that either, but i don’t think one book is enough to write off a sub genre. two is, though. some of the stories were ok i guess but they averaged like 15 pages each sorry i just don’t think anything can be of any substance of that length, and they weren’t! they weren’t really very scary, and a few just relied entirely on gory/taboo subjects to make up for cheap endings and were quite boring otherwise
movies
i’ve watched a decent amount of horror movies this month i think. i’ve done the first two final destinations, cruel intentions, drop dead gorgeous, paranormal activity. i was going to take a chance on the new ryan murphy thing but as soon as i saw based on a true story i was like no! i don’t do true crime it’s weird i think it’s a perverse interest to have. i’m on season 3 of true blood and i might watch one of the scream movies tonight i’m not sure
this has been a novel and a half i’m currently at 189 books read so i could push for 200 by the end of the year. now that i’m back home i can switch back to physical books for a lil bit before i go away for a week for work in november. no specific reading goals/ideas of what i want to read we’re switching back to vibes

🎞️ Hello there! I go by she/they, 21+ and I’m interested in a fandom rp inspired by Babylon (2022)! I’ve seen someone already asking for a partner but I’m unsure they’re still looking, so it’s my turn to ask! :)
I’m looking for a literate rp partner interested in the movie’s settings, which is 1920/1930’s Hollywood, from the silent movies era to the beginning of talkies. We could play the characters or just go for an OC x OC if you don’t know the movie but are interested anyway!
I’d absolutely love to have some talks OOC about the plot we want and the ideas we might have, as well as learn more about the way you see your characters (OC or just your headcanons for existing characters). It could be a platonic or romantic relationship (mlm, wlw preference) between our characters, I’d absolutely love this as long as it’s slow burn and doesn’t feel rushed!<3 Same if you wanna do some nsfw scenes, I’m okay with this as long as it isn’t constantly (like a 20/80 ratio?).
I’d like to rp on Discord, as many paragraphs as possible and obviously, not put pressure on each other for a quick answer! Take your time (I’d say, one to two days for an answer), as long as you’re satisfied of your writing and you’re enjoying it. Please leave a like if you’re interested, I’ll reach out as soon as possible! 🎬

🏳️‍🌈A list of more monogamous gay (wlw and mlm) medias for those of us that loves romantic comedies and fidelity. 🎞️🍿
Have you ever noticed how the modern LGBTQ+ community is often...how do I say it, promiscuous (not that there is anything wrong with it)? Sadly, unfortunately, there are some of us queer ones that feels rejected and left out, because we wish for all the hallmarks of a romantic comedy as our idea of pride. I know, because I am a lesbian that wishes for a good old 1950s-style date with a woman. And I often feel alone in a world that puts forward (with all due respect to the community) a provocative, quasi-porn-like pride. It is just not my cup of tea. Long story short, therefore, I compiled my own list of movies, tv series, comics and even fanfictions that are more like my taste. I do hope that someone else find solace in this list. ENJOY AND HAVE A BEAUTIFUL DAY!
List of more monogamous gay movies and other medias:
Movies:
Imagine Me and You
Love, Simon
Can't Think Straight
Spoiler Alert
Strange Frame: Love and Sax (one of my favourite. Thank you, Tubitv!)
Set in a future where humans left Earth a long time ago for the moons around Jupiter, a woman named Parker falls in love with a musician named Naya and forms a band. But a cunning producer tries to tear them apart. Interesting world building and animation. Very psychedelic in style.
The Rainbow Bridge Hotel (Tubitv)
A gay couple tries to get married in a old motel, while the silly owner gets in trouble with inspection. (Tubitv)
Strange World (the latest Disney movie. This movie's main protagonist (Ethan) is gay and
no one makes a big deal about it. Plus, Ethan and Diazo (his crush) are so dang cute, together.)
Ringolivio (Tubitv)
A young woman passionned by insects visits her girlfriend's brothers for the first time and spends a peculiar holiday, struggling to fit in with these strange brothers.
Bros (some might like it, but I hated it. Such a whiny and unlikeable, yap-yapping protagonist.)
The Falls triology (Tubitv)
A triology about two mormon young men falling in love. Nice story,
but filmed in an extremely boring way. I understand that these are independant movies
with less budget, but dang, stop filming with a still camera all the time. All three movies
were on Tubi tv, last time I checked if you are interested.
TV series with monogamy in it:
Heartstopper
The L world (at least in the beginning. Please do not spoil me as I am not done with this series, yet. I love how each woman in his series is developped beyond their orientation.
Something that Netflix should learn, frankly.)
Our Flag Means Death
Steven Universe
Comics with a monogamous gay relationship:
Heartstopper (obviously) (by Alice Oseman, available in most libraries and on
Amazon, plus its original web comic format (Tumblr and Tapas). :
A sugary-sweet comic about two british teenage boys falling in love. Famously adapted into
a Netflix series, recently.
Puu (by Nabi):
Set in India, this comic follows a man named Jameel that lives with a quirky, flower-loving roommate named Saboor. They slowly developp feelings for each other, but struggle in a rather unwelcoming India. Lovely, simplistic art.
Bingo Love (by Tee Franklin, Jenn St-Onge and Joy San)
A most gorgeous comic book romance about two black girls falling in love in the 60s, then after being separated for years, finding each other at the same Church Bingo where they met as kids.
Rock and Riot (by Cheriiart)
A most beautiful, inclusive comic about basically the lesbian version of Danny and Sandy (from Grease) falling in love in a sort of alternative universe where it's the 50s and queer ones are rather accepted.
Ivy comic by mimimar
A dream come true for a lesbian that loves sapphic, disney princesses vibes. I feel like I'm reading a Disney Golden Book. So darn cute so far.
Fanfictions with gay monogamy in it:
Fanfiction: medicine (fandom: Watchmen, Pairing: Nite Owl x Rorshchach)
This beautiful 18+ fanfiction is about Nite Owl and Rorshchach developping, or rather revealing burried feelings after Rorshchach gets wounded on a patrol, coupled with being sick. While Nite Owl (alias Daniel) nurses him back to health, Rorshchach lets down his guard and accidently shows himself without his mask to him for the very first time. Thus the Walter Kovacs underneath begins to timidly show itself from the cracks. Slow-burned and very tender. My new favourite fanfiction.
100% Exhausted (fandom: Mob Psycho 100, Pairing: TeruMob (Teruki Hanasawa x Shigeo Kageyama)
A most adorable TeruMob fanfic in which a worn-out Mob returns from work and Teruki is the best, caring boyfriend to him. Bonus appearances of Shou and Ritsu.

I used to spend a lot of time at a Franciscan friary that no longer exists. The Order sold, and the property was quickly purchased by a Catholic organization. The land is still lived on, the buildings still stand, but it ceased to be what it always was, and I didn’t feel welcome after the sale. I hadn’t been back in years—not since the funeral service for the elderly brother who was allowed to stay in New York as the Order consolidated because he was old, medically complex, and all of his doctors were here. He stayed on the grounds he shaped by hand, surrounded by the flowering gardens that were the most visible gift of his vocation. But at the funeral, the chapel looked different, things were done differently, there were changes to the landscape, and I just knew that I didn’t have a reason to return.
This fall, winter, and spring, as I floundered, drowning in endless uncertainty, I needed to go back to a place that could mirror the essence of who I was back to me, because I’d lost sight of myself. It didn’t even occur to me to go there. I never stopped to wonder why this place that had been so formative and had held me for so long through so many other desert times didn’t even cross my mind.
I have an elaborate and overly zealous filtering system on my emails. I don’t remember how I did it, so any attempts I’ve made to try to adjust it have been fruitless. One of the filters I set up was to send emails from this place straight into a folder so that I didn’t have to see them. The weekly emails were a knife in my heart, but I couldn’t bring myself to unsubscribe. One night, my filter spontaneously failed. I saw their email in my inbox. Impulsively, as I was leaving work, I decided to take the ride out.
I never gave this well much thought beyond thinking it was beautiful in its own tragic, forgotten sort of way. I often parked in front of it when I visited. It was a fixture: something I couldn’t imagine ceasing to exist, but not something to which I devoted a great amount of attention. It was still standing. Through all the change, it still welcomed me.
