#It’s not romantic because how would it possibly be?

Whenever someone calls Charles Rowland straight, an angel dies.
What straight guy tells his best friend who just confessed to him that there's no one else – no one – he would go to Hell for. And that they have forever to figure out what that means. You don’t get his repressed bisexuality like I do!
Even modern bisexuals (I may or may not be speaking from personal experience) are oblivious to the fact they're bi because heteronormative roles are so engraved in our minds. When you're attracted to other genders, it's easy to miss a same-sex crush, only then to realise that oh, it wasn’t just admiration, it was attraction.
Charles, having grown up at the height of the AIDS crisis, with an abusive and probably homophobic father, killed by racist bullies? That would make anyone repress any gay feelings. Especially if you experience crushes on people with a different sex to you.
Charles sees Crystal and takes his chance. He's enamoured with this smart, strong-willed, pretty girl who can see him not only in a physical sense, but pays attention to him. He longs to be loved. Then he says the infamous "That sounds alot like you, doesn't it? Maybe that's why I like her so much" line. What an icon. And he compares himself and his best friend to the greatest love story of all time, Orpheus and Euridyce's.

When Edwin confesses to him, he doesn't rule out the possibility of returning these feelings. He knows they're already devoted to each other. They've already had 30 years of companionship and solving cases together.
"As long as I have my best mate and a case to solve, I'm good."
Being with Edwin is simple. They solve cases, help others, run away from Death. It's a simple existance. Charles gave up eternity to be with Edwin, because he was kind to him when he was dying. Charles finds him fun, wants to protect him, knows that Edwin is a kind and good person. One that Charles wants to be.
"Bad guys don't worry about being bad guys. And you, Charles Rowland, are the best person I know."
Tumblr media
Crystal's role is very important in changing the dynamic between Edwin and Charles. Not only because Charles falls for her, but because she opens them up. She digs out their repressed feelings and trauma. Charles finally deals with his dad's abuse, his happy-go-lucky mask falls. She points it out to Edwin. Charles kept it up so well because Edwin didn't press it, but Crystal does. And Charles finally lets himself process what happened to him, and how that affects his relationships.
Charles never saw genuine love between his parents, and that affects how he views relationships. It impacts how he forms them, too. But he's a loverboy, he longs to be loved, he falls easily. Why wouldn’t he fall for someone who stuck to his side for 30 years?
Crystal and Monty's roles mirror each other – they help the boys figure out their feelings and desires. Crystal makes Edwin jealous that there's someone else Charles cares about in the same sense he cares for Edwin. The Cat King helps Edwin discover desire, Monty – genuine love. As Charles' and Crystal's relationship kickstarts (albeit ends as quickly) and Monty persues Edwin, he discovers the depth of his feelings.
"These complicated feelings that you have? They're for Charles."
I would love to see their wants explored more in the future season(s, hopefully multiple). Charles giving into desire with Desire of the Endless' guidance? Yes please.
I simply cannot believe that anyone would doubt Painland/Payneland endgame. They're everything to each other. They're a constant presence, reassurance, and love. Platonic, romantic, it doesn't matter. Their bond is so deep and genuine that immortal beings see it and leave them be, in the afterlife they chose for each other. Their love is so deep it transcends planes: from mortal plane to Hell, it leads Charles to Edwin. Charles is not Orpheus, when he turns around to hear Edwin out on the staircase from Hell, he manages to get him out. And they have literally forever for each other.

astronotes❤️‍🔥
underdeveloped virgo moons are HIGHLY critical when it has anything to do with themselves, others and environments. It can be exhausting having to work with these people cause they’re never satisfied.
cancer placements always have endearing nick names for their friends or their loved ones. especially if cancer resides in the 3rd house.
many people like to associate mysteriousness with pluto and while I do agree SOOOO many people ignore cancer placements/prominent moon aspects when it comes to that topic.there’s a reason why many iconic women have cancer placements and it’s because of that allure🌙 ALSO the moon card in tarot literally represents secrets/hidden.
-Angelina joline
-Margot Robbie
-Pamela Anderson
libra venus men will give you the world and are such romantics. my dad has this placement and he’s one of the reasons why I have such high standards in men😭
taurus placements are very much in tune with their 5 senses and THEY WILL make you feel as comfortable as possible when your with them. can’t tell you how many times people come to my house and say how cozy it is. I think that’s the biggest compliment when you make someone feel safe❤️‍🔥
I feel like earth placements are the most intimidating when it comes to 1st impression wether it be sun,moon, or rising. there’s always a no bs energy to them and are always searching for goals/stability. which can make people think that your not here to waste time.
scorpio risings are always studying people and if they’re comfortable with you they’ll tell you!! small details they notice about you ,changes in your movements when your uncomfortable, certain shirts you like to wear or body parts you like to show off. which I think is super attractive coming from a mercury dominant that’s always looking at details.
mars dominant/mars 1st house people always look good in active wear. it doesn’t even matter the occasion they will wear it and it will always look good.
working with someone that has the opposite mars from you is literally hell. your gonna have to find a common ground with them if not these people are gonna irk the living shi outta you. *cough* *cough* cancerxcap *cough*
chiron synastry is so funny because you end up finding their chart and your like “oh that’s why they triggered me so much” my ex manger had her chiron in my 1st house and yeah no. it also conjuncted my venus and she would say some things that weren’t too nice to say the least😭 it was a double whammy though because my chiron conjuncted her mars which triggered me the most because you use your mars placement a lot in the work field.
virgo risings are the easiest for me to spot. There’s this simplicity to their beauty but so detailed. very much clean girl aesthetic.
most leo risings I know have blonde highlights or just always CHANGING their hair. Its true what they say their hair is very prominent in their appearance.
anya taylor joy being a taurus rising is not surprising literally just look at her cupids bow😭 and her facial structure. she is so gorgeous

Thinking about how Yuu in twst can be based off of the ghost bride for haunted mansion. Considering everyone is based off of some Disney character in a movie. Especially since the bride preys on men and then kills them for their money aster marrying them, making her a villain. Yuu doesn’t have to be female for it since that doesn’t apply to twst characters. It works since Yuu is preying on the house wardens through out the story, using them to their advantage. Specifically in romantic twst, where Yuu is gaining men like they’re their husbands. Since the haunted mansion bride will get men to do anything she wants it works for Yuu to. It especially works since NRC is for villains, meaning the mirror chose right.
- Rook would fall to his hands and knees without anything needing to be said. He’ll give Yuu anything, money, love, even lives. He would line up to be apart of the husbands, possibly being the first victim. And he loves that
- Remember when the Octotrio helped Yuu all because they complained about Jamil. Yeah, they would be the ones giving money. They would have a separate account for Yuu just from the profits off of the lounge.
- Remember when Leona let them stay. He didn’t have to but he did. He would so give them money, showering them in riches.
- Don’t even get me started on Malleus. He would give up his kingdom for them(descendants anyone?). He wouldn’t be the first victim but he would be the worse. Having giving them anything and everything they asked for.
- Kalim to. As soon as Yuu said something, it’s already bought. Lavish dinners, lavish parties, lavish lifestyle. Yuu wouldn’t be able to walk on the ground because of the treatment.
Tumblr media
Let me know if I should expand on the idea

Remember to always drink water, rest your fingers and body! 💗💗
Okay so angst to fluff and this can be seen as either platonic or romantic. OKAY, so mattheo and reader are like always seen together and people back off from reader because of how close reader is to mattheo. The thing is reader is completely oblivious to the rumors about our dear riddle brother. Reader always followed mattheo like a small puppy which always made mattheo smile as he’s so unbothered by them. But let’s say 2 days has passed and reader is no where in sight and it raises alarms in mattheo’s head. Mattheo is literally freaking out in his mind as he thinks reader is avoiding him and probably heard the rumors up front. It’s to the point he is about to completely snap only to see reader in his dorm confused like a true lost puppy. Turns out reader went to their home town cause they missed “real” food.
-🧚🏾‍♀️
Lost and Found
Tumblr media
Pairings : Mattheo Riddle x GN! Reader Summary : Mattheo Riddle and you are inseparable, causing whispers to follow your every move. But when you disappear unexpectedly, Mattheo's mind spirals into a frenzy of worry, fearing the worst. Little does he know, your absence is simply a quest for familiar flavors from home. A/n : Enjoy (⁠・⁠∀⁠・⁠) Warnings) : Nothing! Word count : 700+
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
You'd never noticed the way people whispered as you walked by Mattheo Riddle's side. To you, he was simply your closest friend, someone you felt comfortable around, someone who always made you smile. But to others, the sight of you two together sparked rumors and raised eyebrows.
You followed Mattheo like a shadow, your steps mirroring his effortlessly. He would chuckle at your antics, finding solace in your unwavering presence. But then, suddenly, you were gone.
Two days passed like a blur for Mattheo. Anxiety clawed at his mind, twisting his thoughts into a tangled mess. Where were you? Why hadn't you shown up? Did you hear the rumors and decide to distance yourself from him?
His heart pounded with each passing second, panic settling in the pit of his stomach like a heavy weight. He couldn't focus on anything else, his thoughts consumed by the fear of losing you.
Finally, unable to bear the uncertainty any longer, Mattheo set out to find you. He searched every corner of Hogwarts, his steps frantic as he called out your name, hoping for a response that never came.
His mind raced with possibilities, each one more terrifying than the last. Had something happened to you? Was it his fault for not realizing sooner?
Just as he was on the brink of losing hope, he stumbled upon your dormitory. Relief flooded through him at the sight of your familiar surroundings, but confusion still lingered in his mind.
Pushing open the door, he found you sitting on your bed, looking utterly bewildered. Your eyes widened in surprise, jumping back slightly as you took in his disheveled appearance, a small smile tugging at your lips.
"Holy shit, you fucking scared me. What are you doing here?" you asked, your voice tinged with confusion.
He couldn't help but let out a shaky laugh, the tension draining from his body as he sank down beside you.
"I've been looking everywhere for you," he confessed, his voice barely above a whisper.
Your brows furrowed in concern, and you reached out to grasp his hand in yours. "Why? What's wrong?"
Mattheo couldn't bring himself to meet your gaze, the weight of his worries still pressing down on him. "I thought…I thought you were avoiding me because of the rumors," he admitted, his voice barely audible.
Your eyes widened in surprise, and you let out a soft laugh, the sound like music to his ears. "Rumors? What rumors?"
He blinked in confusion, unable to comprehend your obliviousness to the whispers that surrounded you both. "You mean…you haven't heard?"
You shook your head, a puzzled expression crossing your features. "No, I've been away for a few days. I went back home to visit my family and, well, to get some real food. Hogwarts cuisine can only satisfy me for so long."
Relief washed over Mattheo like a tidal wave, his worries evaporating into thin air. He couldn't help but let out a breathless laugh, the sound echoing through the room.
"You had me worried sick," he admitted, his voice laced with a mixture of relief and affection.
You smiled softly, squeezing his hand gently. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you worry. I just needed a break from all the chaos."
Mattheo nodded understandingly, his heart swelling with gratitude for your presence. "Well, next time, let me know before you disappear like that. I don't think I can handle another scare like this."
You chuckled softly, leaning your head against his shoulder. "I promise, I'll keep you updated from now on. After all, what are friends for?"
A soft chuckle escaped Mattheo's lips, the tension melting from his shoulders as he enveloped you in a warm embrace. "You foolish creature," he murmured against your hair, his voice thick with affection.
And in that moment, surrounded by the warmth of his embrace, you realized that rumors were nothing more than whispers in the wind. What mattered was the bond that bound you together, unbreakable and true.
As the evening sunlight filtered through the window, casting a warm glow over the room, Mattheo realized that sometimes, the most precious things in life were right in front of you all along. And he vowed to never take your friendship for granted again.
The two of you spent the rest of the evening catching up, sharing stories and laughter as if nothing had ever changed. And as Mattheo watched you smile and heard the sound of your laughter, he knew that no matter what challenges may come their way, as long as he had you by his side, he could face anything.

I'm not really sure why so many people actually believe that Tommy wasn't supposed to stay and that him coming back in episode 9 was some kind of a last minute change.
They were calling it a "romcom" and a "love story" back when episode 4 and 5 aired. They framed that entire arc as a romance. They went out of their way to show Tommy as a reliable, kind and supportive man. Tim kept saying he didn't know where the story would lead in the future but called Tommy an "important romantic partner for Buck". Oliver said unprompted that perhaps they could continue it in a similar way to Tarlos and talked about what he'd want for them in the future. They filmed that scene from episode 6 way back.
The idea of Tommy only being back for a few episodes was imposed by certain fans who needed it to sustain their "plot device" narrative. There was never any actual justification for it beyond the ridiculous belief that Bi Buck could only ever mean canon B*ddie.
The reason why Tommy's initial arc was only for 4 episodes was because they couldn't commit until they knew how the audience would react to Buck's coming out. And after that it was too late to include him in any of the last episodes beyond just a few short scenes that showed them happy and still very much together. The scripts didn't have enough room for anything more.
They have been honest about Bucktommy being a lasting relationship as a possibility since episode 4. People just didn't want to listen to the showrunner and the actors but then again, it's a pattern in this fandom.

Fem!Rover on a date with Reader
Authors note: Made it a oneshot since that seems to fit the request most. Also this might be weirdly written because I have never went on a date before… and I know the request was for a fem!reader but I just never found myself using any gendered terms to describe the reader… sorry!!
Possible warnings: None!
Tumblr media
Honestly, this whole “date” thing was pretty new to Rover. I mean, she’d went out with a few other people before, but never with romantic intent… so when you had asked her out on a date, she was both surprised and unsure how to respond. But there’s always a first time for everything, yes?
You had taken her out to Panhua’s restaurant, deciding it would be a good date.
“… is the food nice?” Rover asked, trying to start a conversation with you. That’s what people do on dates, right?
“It is nice!” You answered.
“Mine is as well.” Rover replied.
Neither of you two were really sure how to continue the conversation, but Rover just tried to ask another question, hoping it would actually lead somewhere.
“Are we going to go to anywhere else after this?” Rover asked.
“Do you want to?” You asked in reply.
“… I am unsure.” Rover replied.
… you didnt really know how to reply, so there was just an awkward silence for a few seconds before Rover continued.
“I suppose we don’t have to. This is very satisfactory, just being with you right now.” Rover added, hoping it would make things less awkward.
“Then we aren’t going anywhere after, I guess.” You replied.
“That is fine.” Rover quickly responded, continuing to eat her food.
The rest of the date was just Rover occasionally asking something, you replying, and then repeat. Definitely… a date. (I apologize I have no idea how to finish this.)

Wandee Goodday Ep 5 Stray Thoughts
Last week, they executed their Business Gay Performance Plan and Ter was pressed. Wandee found himself jealous of Taem, and Kao almost choked Dee out for complicating his arrangement for no reason. Dee spent the night at the gym, and everyone there knows what's up. We got insights into Yak's relationship with his mom, and how his desire to graduate may be related to her.
I guess it's time for Dee's trauma. Are we gonna open the next episode with Kao's or Cher's?
Cheering up this kid is very sweet.
The fact that these two are actually fucking is such a relief. Most of the time it's just not believable that these guys haven't been doing it.
I had a student once who remembers everyone's birthdays. Can't believe Dee walked into this trap.
Let's talk about Yoryak knowing the exact length of time they've been together.
Golf is having fun with these cameos.
Kao! The first thing he asked about was the sex gear!
Once again this show comes through for me I'm so glad boys who read kinda femme are allowed to demand a stern dicking. Pete in LBC was the first I remember, but this is so satisfying. Cher is allowed to want sex, too. I love it because Oyei has been so down for Cher this whole time that there's no way I believed he's cheating, but I do think he has something on his mind.
I love the grandma. She said, "These annoying youths are at the home and I had to get the fuck out of there." She knew what was up and was teasing the whole time.
I really love how chill the grandmother is about Dee's sex and romantic life. She teases mildly and checks on him to make sure he's okay.
That visual effect with the line was cute.
What in the 2gether is this?
I know she not playing that guitar at 3:30 in the morning!
Why would we put the sex bunny ears on his grandma??? What in the Peter Cottontail nonsense is this???
Why are his parents buried next to a British naval officer????
Genuinely love Yoryak changing up his look. The vibe between Yoryak and Taem is so compelling.
I refuse to believe that Oyei is possibly lying.
Now why are they doing their sex personas in public like this? Is Kao taking notes?
I'm so glad that Dee and Taem don't have beef.
Okay, I suspect Inn can actually cook.
No. Flour everywhere is not sexy. This is not an easy mess to clean.
It's so gross Ter taking Kwan to the same place as Dee like this. I don't like it.
Nope, that's flour in his eye. It's over. Yeast infection ahoy.
I'm not in the mood for Ter nonsense next week.
This feels like a treading water episode. I hope we get payoff next week with both of our couples. I don't want this thing about Cher's worries to be nothing, when I suspect that Oyei is dealing with financial stress.

Maxis Match Sims Only - CC is encouraged but please include it. I own every pack except for the most recent kits and SWJTB.

Tumblr media Tumblr media
SUMMARY
This AU inside of an AU takes place after the events of Ellen, Nimdok, Gorrister, and Benny’s death and AM altering Ted into the slug creature. AM is greatly angry and paranoid that Ted took away his four play things and that if he’s not careful, you would be next. So he also alters you so that your body is made out of rubber (he basically turned you into luffy so that you may never be able to KYS), and isolates you from Ted. 200 years have passed since that incident, and one day while AM was forcing you to cuddle with him… You, AM, and Ted were teleported to another universe.
In this universe, you three are citizens living in America in the modern day. You three were in a dark alley during the day. You and Ted wake up before AM. Ted notices that AM is unconscious and tries to coax you into helping him kill AM. You didn’t want to. Ted is furious and demands to know why.
You explained that you didn’t want to kill AM. Not because you were afraid or hated him. You didn’t want to kill him because you would feel guilty after everything he did for you. Giving you food and water whenever you felt malnourished, not allowing the storms and challenges to hurt you, and he didn’t physically torture you. Throughout the 309 years you’ve lived in AM’s belly, he treated you decently. As decent as AM could be. Unbeknownst to the two of you, that AM was wide awake and heard the whole thing.
You didn’t want to kill him, you especially couldn’t let Ted kill him. Before Ted could attack you, you screamed “Fire” as loud as you could, attracting the attention of a crowd and forcing Ted to flea. It wouldn’t be the last time you see him, though.
You nudge AM awake not knowing he wasn’t asleep at all. AM was surprised when he could feel your hands as you helped him up. He could smell, he could stand straight, he could feel his body and face were fully developed and human. AM could breathe, see, and his heart beat erratically. He was both overwhelmed and joyful that he could feel and do the things he was so envious of humans for having.
More importantly, he could feel you. he felt so warm inside when he remembered you protecting him and appreciating all he’s done before and after the ice cave incident. he was clinging onto you like a koala as you pulled out a key from your pocket that had your apartment building and street engraved in it. thankfully it wasn’t too far. you also learned that you had a job in an office as a secretary that pays good money.
AM doesn’t have a job, but helps you out by being a neat freak and tidies up the apartment. in return, you teach AM one thing about humans per day. this AU is full of tooth rotting fluff, hilarious slice of life, drama, and delicious smut.
(thanks for reading 💚 stay tuned)

hii! hope it’s not too much trouble, but maybe reader x scout, reader x engie, and reader x sniper - (established relationships with the mercs and reader) the reader doesn’t seem to be very happy lately - something bad that happened earlier in the week must’ve reminded reader of their past. (i really like your posts btw, you’re genuinely a really good writer)
(ahhhhh thx sm! I tried to make it as vague as possible so I hope you like it. Thx for requesting! p.s. I'm workin thru the rest of rqs soon bc school is wrapping up, so rqs may be back open soon :3)  
Scout, Engie, and Sniper w/ a reader who was reminded of their past (ROMANTIC)
─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ─── 
☆Scout☆
He feels like something’s off, but doesn’t know what
He wants to try to talk to you about it, ask if you’re alright and everything but he’s never been one for initiating that kind of emotional talk
When he finds you crying in your room though, he feels his heart break that he didn’t help you before
He scoops you up in his arms. “H- hey, doll, why’re you cryin’? Was it something I said?”
(He can’t help but still be a little insecure, you’re the first person he’s dated after all and he wants to do everything right for you)
If you don’t want to talk about it he’ll hold you and go on about how much he loves you so you don’t have to deal with silence
“You’re so perfect, doll, it kills me to see you like this, y’know, watchin’ tears roll down that pretty face of yours. Wish ya never felt the need to cry baby, I love you so goddamn much-”
Yeah he’s crying too, he can’t help it
If you do tell him he’d listen intently
He’d try to make you laugh so you’d stop crying, humor is his coping mechanism and he kinda projects it on you, sorry if that’s not your thing :/
He’ll make sure to give you plenty more affection a while after, youre getting spoiled as hell
☆Sniper☆
He’s not the best with emotions and all that jazz (he has the autism)
But when he finds you crying outside it hits him that something’s wrong
He sits next to you and places his hand on your shaking figure. 
“You okay darl?”
“No.”
“Would you like a hug dear?”
“Please.”
He wraps his arms around you and pulls you tight to him, barely any space between the two of you.
He rubs circles into your back until your crying has settled down. “...you wanna talk about it now, love?”
If you don’t he’ll stay with you and idly trace shapes into your hand, letting you cry it out
If you do tell him he’ll nod empathetically “Oh, love,” he sighs, tilting your chin up to look at the night sky above you two
“Think ‘bout it this way. All those stars up there? The light we see from em’ now is from ages ago, but the actual bloody stars have completely different light.  And jus’ because we can see the light, don’t actually mean that it’s here anymore. Bugger, I’m shit at metaphors. Point is, that’s in the past, an’ even though you might think ‘bout it sometimes its still in the past. And I love ya.”
☆Engineer☆
Notices something’s off immediately, he’s a smart guy after all
Once you two are alone he’ll place a hand on your shoulder and ask you “Are you alright?” in that sweet voice that just makes you burst out into tears
Pats your back and hugs you as you cry “Shh, it’s alright sugar, it’s alright. You wanna talk about it?”
If you don’t want to he’ll scoop you up in his arms (but I’m taller than- yes. He can pick you up too) and get you some warm food
“Y’know, my momma said that a good hot meal is the best after bawlin’ your eyes out. We don’t exactly got anything you’d call a meal right now, but I can fix you up some toast with cinnamon if you'd like, honeybee.”
If you do tell him he’ll reassure you that everything okay
“Honey, I know the past ain’t really ever somethin’ that leaves, but you gotta remember things are alright right now. Stuff from back then can’t getcha, sure it hurts sometimes but you gotta remember things are good right now. And I’m here for you.”
Gives you so many kisses

On Elain, Gwyn and their apparent romantic worthiness.
TW: mentions of death, violent or sexual assault, infertility and pregnancy/childbirth related trauma. Please do not proceed if these topics bother you.
Disclaimer: please, please engage with this post with kindness. I promise I am not writing it to stir the pot, but because I - and many others - are fed up with seeing hurtful and harmful rhetoric spewed by the fandom, yet having no back up when dealing with it. Word vomit incoming, I'm sorry. This has been bothering me for a while.
My love to everyone who has been hurt by things they've read in this fandom. 💜
It's 2024 and I cannot believe we are still seeing posts, almost daily, about both of these women; all giving reasons why they cannot possibly be with Azriel. And I don't mean the debatable but utterly harmless discussions about Elain not looking good in black or Gwyn blabbing to Merrill when asked not to. Whatever, go nuts. I mean the truly horrific takes based around things these two women have had no control.
Now, my post history makes it very obvious where I stand in terms of ships, and yes, I'm well aware I've spoken before about the inherent power imbalance - that I perceive - which would exist if Azriel ever became involved with any of the priestesses in the women's shelter he is charged with protecting (to be clear, that's not me suggesting that Gwyn and her story isn't powerful, or powerful representation to those who see themselves in her, nor is it personal to Gwyn, or indicative of any of the sheltered priestesses and their ability to heal; it's purely a function of Azriel's position of authority over their sanctuary). I want to reiterate that my stating my feelings about this was never done with the intent to shame people who do ship them; we all ship who we like, and real world ethics should rarely come into it.
That being said, the following, in my opinion, is one of those times.
Firstly, I just want to say that lived experience informs how we interpret fiction, so please let me clarify something: the people who have said that they don't think Gwyn is ready for a relationship yet, and that NSFW fan art of her with anyone makes them uncomfortable, are not in any way in the wrong. They're simply the other side of the coin to those who find it empowering, and both are valid responses, often related to personal trauma. The problem lies with those very few who say that Gwyn could never have a romantic relationship, and call those who talk and/or post about it "gross." Some have called her "damaged goods." This is absolutely wrong and whoever is doing it needs to stop.
The entire fandom, even those who find romantic or NSFW content involving Gwyn uncomfortable to consume, frequently acknowledges that her trauma doesn't define her, and of course she should be able to enjoy love whenever she feels ready for it. Those who say otherwise are readily condemned from all corners. I've seen it happen and called the people out myself, as have many other Elriel shippers when necessary. However, Elriels are still very regularly and very publicly blamed for the actions of a few (some of whom I truly believe are burner accounts wanting to cause chaos, with their Elriel themed usernames and no post history), despite our largely collective action to call them out when we see it.
Could we do better? Absolutely, but so can you!
Because, on the other hand, I've noticed that, whenever I or others have tried to explain why the pliable bones "theory" - which attempts to reason that Elain could never be endgame with Azriel, as she and any baby would die during the course of pregnancy or childbirth - is equally as harmful, we are met with people publicly and wholeheartedly refusing to understand why (especially recently). Some horrific comments have been made to my friends, not to mention all of those I see well after the fact, which are never widely condemned by any but us. People will argue back that we're wrong, and have even suggested we're weaponising infertility! On Mothers' Day, of all the fucking painful days to say that.
Some of the push back I've seen recently includes:
"Nobody has said Elain is infertile."
No, nobody has, and that's not what we're saying or have ever said. We know you don't think this, as the Elucien fandom loves to write and draw Elain and Lucien's hypothetical future children (which is super understandable, as this is a romantasy fandom after all - no shame, enjoy your warm fuzzies).
What we are saying is that, if it's true that Elain's anatomy wasn't changed as Feyre and Nesta's was - and to be clear I cannot stand that entire plot, I wish SJM had chosen literally any other reason why Feyre's pregnancy was dangerous, as it is simultaneously degrading and doesn't fit with her previously established lore - then Elain and Azriel, together^, would be functionally infertile. Yet it's only ever framed as Elain's body not being able to work with Azriel's, never the other way around.*
^Why didn't the bat boys have to sacrifice their wings to keep their wives/mates safe? Why did the women have to change their anatomy? Because it would make it harder for them to be all powerful? Well Nesta sacrificed her powers! Why not just have Feyre be cursed by an enemy or something, and Nesta found a way to use the Dread Trove to save them all. Ugh. I love SJM's books, but this was such a miss.
*HOSAB/HOFAS SPOILER: funnily enough, this was never said about Ruhn and his eventual mate, even though he actually did think he may be unable to father children, thanks to the Oracle's prophecy. People shipped the hell out of him and a couple of different women throughout the CC series, despite the chance he could never get them pregnant.
"People haven't called Elain damaged goods, so it's not the same. We're allowed to not like her."
My faerie porn* lover in christ, what the fuck do you think the pliable bones "theory" is actually doing? It is suggesting that Elain's hypothetical inability to survive having children with Azriel, and for those children to also survive childbirth, is impaired. Ergo, she's damaged.
We don't care if you don't like Elain, we're allowed to have different preferences in characters and ships. That has never been the problem.
*I use this term with affection as a great lover of the genre.
But "damaged" vs a functionally "impaired" uterus? It's the same damn thing, and sorry, it's misogynistic af, not to mention ableist and homophobic at a minimum. In the same breath you are also reducing your favourite to her apparently functional uterus (even though the pliable bones argument is medically inaccurate, by the way - this is really damning of the state of health education across so many countries).
"Hahaha/lol."
Yes, I have seen people laugh and treat this as a joke. As recently as tonight, in fact. It's disgusting.
Regardless of your lived experiences and shipping preferences, both of these takes about Elain and Gwyn are equally degrading and horrific and need to stop, but if you're only calling out the comments that hurt you/your friends/your ship and not the others, then you should maybe attempt some basic self reflection and analyse those double standards you're carrying.
This entire fandom needs to do better. I'll say again, for the umpteenth time, to any of my fellow Elriels that if you think mocking Gwyn's past is funny, then you're not mature enough to read an adult series. But this works both ways, and if you think mocking infertility is funny/use it as a win, then you're just as immature. I would really and truly appreciate it if we were not left alone to argue over and over again why discriminating against someone who couldn't "have a man's children" is wrong, and why many, many people in this adult fandom - that is largely comprised of women! - might find such a theory, and the resulting discourse, incredibly upsetting.
Infertility hurts; not having a kid when you want one can be viscerally painful. Besides that, I know very few people who have given birth who don't carry around some sort of emotional or physical trauma from doing so. Treating a character's hypothetical infertility with one man as a joke is gross.
Please don't call Gwyn "damaged goods" or suggest that Azriel would choose somebody else over Elain because she couldn't have his kids.
They are the same thing.
It's not hard to be kind. Pain is not a competition.
We should all do better, and take care of each other.

I’m sick and tired of the Flower Husbands discourse. Like really truly it is just making me so upset now. They are my comfort ship. They are. My first tattoo is a poppy with the ESMP1 quote. I want to hold them in my hands and give them all of the good things in the world. When I see people calling them toxic and abusive, it really hurts me. And there’s not a tag to filter out all of it, not all of them tag “toxic flower husbands”. I get it, okay? I do. I get why you might see them like that. But if anything? If we’re going to see Flower Husbands as the most toxic duo, take a look at every other relationship Jimmy has in the Life Series (with the exception of Tango) and you’ll find the same thing. He’s the butt of the joke. He’s the canary they all poke fun of in his cage. He doesn’t care. But Scott does care. If Desert Duo never left the desert, Scott never stopped crying at Jimmy’s grave. Did you watch his series all the way through? Did you see his ideal afterlife? That Jimmy welcomed him home because that is what they had together? Did you hear the way Scott’s voice got sad talking about how quiet and weird it was not to have Jimmy with him? Have you not watched as Scott uses every single opportunity possible to bring up Flower Husbands? He misses Jimmy with every fiber of his being. Jimmy misses Scott too. Did you watch Last Life? Do you know what Martyn did to make Jimmy give him back the life? He promised a life together, Martyn says it himself! That it was all romantic promising to run away just the two of them. How Jimmy was so hopeful. So naive because this was the beginning, he’s not got all of the hope anymore. Jimmy has had to move on. Jimmy made himself move on. 30 seconds. Do you not imagine him turning away from that interaction resigned to his choice a single tear rolling down his face before he rejoins his boys in their shenanigans? Cause I do. That was a man he had devoted his life to. And yeah, maybe it was because of a joke and a silly a poppy. But do you know what a poppy means? Remembrance, dreams, death, and hope for a peaceful future. Do you know what the white daisy, blue cornflower, and red tulip meant at Jimmy’s grave? Purity, life, reanimation, hope, and true feelings. Do you think a character who conveys a message like that capable of the abuse you accuse him of? Scott’s general air of cattiness is just his character. Hard edges that once you’ve chipped away at, reveal someone who is extremely dedicated and fiercely loyal even and especially to his own detriment. Scott will make jokes about finally being free once his husband dies to the war, but I really think that’s just him preparing for the inevitable. Jimmy was going to die. Canary or not. They all were. So why not make a joke out of being lambs in a slaughterhouse. Isn’t that one of the main ways people cope? Scott loved his husband. Still does and will continue too. Jimmy is the same. But he let go. Had to. He would never have forgiven himself for dragging Scott down with him. How many times do you think that man apologised to Tango for dying first. How many times do you think that man apologised to Tango for dying first before they even lost their third life in the first place? I honestly think Scott himself sums this up best: “I don’t always put myself first and sure I’ve made plenty of mistakes and I’ve hurt people. But I’ve always done my best.”
So next time you wanna call them toxic, rewatch the series and think about this post.

Dutch Van Der Linde as the saviour and his early crime life.
Dutch Van Der Linde and his early life beyond the fact that his father died in the war and he ran away from his mother at the age of 15 is a mystery to us as players, however due to the fact he prefered a life of petty crime we assume that his mother was a terrible person, something that might not be true.
Unlike the majority of the gang Dutch does not have evidence of a terrible childhood, he was not orphaned, he was not fleeing from the government, he did not fear for his life and we cannot say that his mother was abusive, almost quite the contrary.
In Dutch's own words, he ran away because he and his mother "did not see eye to eye," and while this can indicate abuse the fact he follows up with "I was not always an obedient child" very much makes it seem like it was his own fault. He continues to talk about how they both loved one another in their own ways, meaning he ran away not because he had to but because he wanted to, especially as the reasons he was "not an obedient child" could very well be because he was young and rebellious.
What makes this even worse is that Dutch mentions having had a price on his head for fifteen years while he actually has been on the run for 29 as he is 44, this means for 14 years he committed crimes, did not have a price on his head, and had the choice to turn back to a "regular life." Now he might just have said 15 as a "about this many years but not the exact" but you don't get it wrong by 14 years.
Dutch mentions that he did not know that his mother was burried in Blackwater but was only told a few years later by an uncle. His mother died in 1881 (her grave can be found), he met Hosea in 1876, met Arthur in 1877 and had been on the run since 1870, meaning he was still in contact with his family at least in 1884, seven years after meeting Arthur.
Milton talks about Dutch being a Messiah, a savior for the people, and Dutch keeps saying "we" this and "we" that but the truth is he is nothing like them, Dutch chose his situation and had many chances to turn back but didn't, while the others in one way or another was forced into it. He also has many advantages, such as being in contact with his family, something which a character like Javier is forced not to and we only see one other character cannonically do, Pearson. Not only that but Dutch often reinforce his role as a boss by having his own tent, having expensive clothing, telling Molly that she doesn't need to work for the mere fact that she is his girl. He does not need to do this, everyone is already loyal to him, yet he does it for nothing more than to serve his own ego.
Now some would say he ran away to make a better world, but there is something wrong with that theory.
Dutch's favorite author is Evelyn Miller who is based on the real romantic/transcendentalist writer Henry David Thoreau. Romanticism is a philosophy that dislikes the wealthy and the industrialization and wants people to embrace a more "authentic" life, which is why Thoreau as a more wealthy man wanted to do an experiment for two years where he moved into a cabin. He wanted to, for the experience of it, live in the woods, such as Dutch did not run away from his possible rich life because he needed to but for the experience of it.
Dutch did not spoil his chance at a normal life for love, he didn't spoil it for "a better world," he didn't spoil it for necessity, he spoiled it for fun, for the experience.
Imagine being Javier, hearing the man who claimed to understand you, say that he still is in touch with his family while you don't know if your sister is even alive. Imagine being Arthur, hearing the man who claimed to understand you, say that he chose a life of crime as an experience while you were forced into it to survive and now hate yourself for it. Imagine being Charles, hearing the man who claimed to understand you, say he chose to hurt for fun while you wish you had another way.
Based on conversations I had with @werewolfarthurmorganenjoyer and @heavenlymorals.

Happy pride, Nimona fandom :3
I gotcha some sketches! Gotta place them in different parts of the post so that you read everything
It's not just drawings I got HEADCANONS for you too!
Tumblr media
Off topic but I love Nimona's design SO MUCH it's so AMAZING TO DRAW AGHHH
So
⚧Nimona LGBTQ+ specific headcanons of mine🏳‍🌈
• I've made a conclusion that if queer flags exist in Nimona universe, as well as gay drag bars (so was confirmed in the artbook), then labels DO exist. As well as good old homophobia??? I suppose????
Tumblr media
• Nimona doesn't have a specific label because she thinks they are sorta restrictive. Also she just doesn't need one lol, if somebody asked her about her gender she'd say "Nimona"
• She'd wear the heck out of a "protect trans kids" shirt she bought no she ain't feeding into the capitalist machine she stole it
• There was something between Nimona and Gloreth but Nimona can't exactly say what for sure. Not exactly romantic but not strictly platonic. Homegirl had that toxic doomed kindergarten yuri going on😭
• Nimona doesn't look for romantic relationships. She explains it as "romance is for sappy dumb-dumbs" but in reality she just doesn't want to date and romantically love somebody who'll. Eventually die and leave her all by herself again yk (oh this got angsty real fast)
• Maybe one day Ballister tried to help her find her label (because he still tries to put things in boxes) and she just waved it off
Speaking of Ballister
• My man is transgender. Do I even have to explain. Read one of those posts that explain his transness better LMAO
• He started his medical transition as a teenager and had to fit right in not to disrupt the Institute's function. If he's a man then he has to transition QUICKLY so that others don't notice
• Because of that he's a transmedicalist and probably an enbyphobe at the start of the movie, thinking only one type of valid transness exists, and it's the one that is very binary and restrictive
• At the end he realizes the wrong of his ways and works on the internalized transphobia
• He came to terms with his homosexuality a bit easier. "It's always been boys" yk the drill
A couple of words about his boy lol
• Ambrosius is a painfully cisgender gay man. I genuinely apologize to all Transbrosius believers but he gives off STRONG cis vibes can't have a character with this surname dickless
• He's a trans ally but his opinions on trans issues were like. Very closed-minded. He supported but didn't entirely understand. Of course it changed as he went through ✨character development✨
• He was fully supportive of Ballister on his trans journey. Reassured him when Ballister felt like he wasn't enough, tried to make his boyfriend as secure as possible, loving every part of him
There should be a bunch of rather suggestive headcanons but this isn't that type of post LOL
No but think about Ambrosius kissing down Ballister's body and across his chest scars. This is my ultimate dream as a trans man
• Ambrosius also rocks a "protect trans kids" shirt that's for SURE
• He came to terms with his queerness as a teenager and had a whole crisis about it. As a Goldenloin he had the expectations of ✨continuing Gloreth's bloodline✨ thrown at him back in childhood so he sorta internalized that. Then boom, my boy is g a y and oh how gay he is!
• Click here to read about my headcanons on goldenheart when they had only started falling in love :D
• Ambrosius made inoffensive jokes about Ballister's transness. Like yk those goofy puns like "baby you put men in MENstruation", "omg does this make your parents transparent". Ballister smiled at them and rolled his eyes but also silently appreciated his bf's support, although expressed so stupidly
• He also made sure Ballister took proper care of his body because you know Ballister would not bind safely, being a dumb teen
Anyway yeah gay people
Tumblr media
Unpopular opinion but we as a fandom should start drawing Bal with a disability queer pride flag
Side characters headcanons, anyone? XD
• Diego came out as nonbinary after the events of the movie. He got that he/they swag going on
Tumblr media
• Also Ballister was his queer awakening FIGHT ME ABOUT IT. He had the stupidest, most childish celebrity crush on Bal. Maybe Bal formed Diego's type in men fjfhhx I like to think Diego got a boyfriend whose attitude is similar to Bal's
• Remember those news anchors? (they are so underrated omg) Well Nate Knight has a husband and Alanzapam Davis is a bi queen🙏
• Speaking of queens. Valerin is a straight ally💪💪 I imagine her being quite iconic on the Kingdom's queer side of the internet. They call her "mother" and stuff aajjaj
• the Director is homophobic, need I say more? So is Todd but I actually imagine him being a type of guy to reject his queerness
Haha mailman *winks at yrrtyrrtwhenihrrthrrt*
• Todd had NO idea Ballister was trans. NONE
• The Kingdom has pride events!! Ambrosius and Ballister were very happy and excited to attend those as an official couple once they were out :}
• Nimona attended them every year, ofc she had to hide her true nature but it was fun for her to march along! And it was even more fun when everyone accepted her!!
Anyway yeah this was very fun to make!! Happy pride y'all, lmk what you think ;D

The Starting Line:
Mha chapter 424 spoilers
So,I actually have a pretty good idea of how dkbk/bkdk will end,and Hori's recent comment is what's led me to this thought process.
Parallels/formula
Tumblr media
We're going back to U.A! And this got me thinking of,well,U.A,and how Horikoshi's comment might have a double meaning.
(also,this just backs up my point of Hori doing what he enjoys and how we really shouldn't worry about fan perception effecting his story)
Going back to the title is going back to the beginning in a sense,and with Horikoshi's recent art,and this recent chapter(s),it made me think of a special interaction within the first few chapters. Chapter 11 specifically.
Now,this is the first time Katsuki cries to Izuku,and his words are very important. Or the reason for them. Izuku tells Katsuki the truth behind his power,and how he's going to make it own. Katsuki sees this as a challenge,but not in a positive way.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But,if we look at the recent chapter,424,Katsuki tearfully tells Izuku that he wishes for them to continue their rivalry.
Tumblr media
Because Izuku was supposed to make his power his own,so he and Izuku could compete together for a "while" (forever). That's why he's so heartbroken by Izuku being quirkless once again. He and Izuku were meant to be heroes together,one the same level,competing and chasing after each other.
Now,why do I bring up chapter 11? Chapter 119 would work too,right? Or chapter 120? They do. And I'll cover that soon enough,but the thing I want to talk about is where they're at. The title. The beginning. The U.A gates. And,when going back to the beginning,let's consider this panel in chapter 8,
Tumblr media
Izuku declaring the new meaning of his hero name. And,what happened in chapter 422?
Tumblr media
They cheer for him to do his best. Now,these parallels are quite important when we consider the whole "going back to the title/beginning" thing. And let's remember throughout the fight between Izuku and Katsuki in chapter 8-10,and something very fucking important. Katsuki is taunting Izuku. The whole time. And,let's remember,when Izuku gets mad,he says things like Katsuki. So,when Katsuki tells Izuku to not let him surpass him in chapter 423,he is motivating him to win to save. Pushing Izuku further. But,now those words don't hold the same weight,it goes back to being taunting.
Now,another thing to consider is All Might,since he's always tying them together. All Might seems to always be there when these HUGE moments and development in their relationship happens. We've set up a certain formula,and it's not changed. Now,at the end of chapter 11,All Might pops up. With chapter 120,which parallels chapter 424 once again.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(I'm not sure we'll get a Deku vs Kacchan part 3,since Katsuki might believe he ended Izuku as a hero, it's a possibility,crossing my fingers)
So,we have Katsuki's confession here in chapter 424,and not much of a response from Izuku. What I'm getting at is,Izuku may confess to Katsuki at those gates,chasing after Katsuki to clear things up (maybe even brining up blackwhip/control your heart arc,also we haven't REALLY seen Izuku's feelings on Katsuki's apology/death).
Tumblr media
especially considering what Izuku says after he tells Katsuki the truth and after Katsuki's tearful confession.
Buf,why those gates specifically? I'm glad you asked.
The cherry blossoms at the gates
So,I've noticed something,at the U.A gates,they're blossom trees. This is considering the official art like this,and I believe a couple frames in the anime.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But,it's so interesting to me that Katsuki and Izuku have so much official art that involves them and cherry blossoms,(which have pretty romantic meanings in Asian culture).
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And that last one is pretty important considering we're going back to the beginning. And with all of the middle school flashbacks we've gotten in recent chapters,the cherry blossoms seem even more meaningful,or where the cherry blossoms are. The U.A gates,the beginning of their hero careers.
So I wouldn't be surprised if there was a tearful and meaningful confession,about his want to chase after Katsuki forever,to be with him. I mean,we have Lisa's song: Datte Atashi no Hero. (About Izuku's feelings for Kacchan)
And,honestly,we've seen some of the lyrics in the manga,like exactly how it says.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(it's also mentioning the beginning with a flashback,which was the whole fucking point of this post,so this just fucking proves my point )
But Izuku gets this newfound motivation when he sees Katsuki,when he's on the brink of exhaustion,when he's losing hope,he holds Katsuki's gaze,then pushes forward,because Katsuki is always pushing him forward.
And let's not forget probably some of the most important lyrics in the song.
Tumblr media
Izuku has compared Katsuki to his idol their whole lives,Katsuki has always been a hero to him,a symbol,so if we go back,to the beginning,we see Katsuki is Izuku's hero and vice versa,and then we go back to the title. My hero. This confession,at the hero academia,the gates,the beginning,is where Izuku confesses to Katsuki his feelings,that Katsuki is his hero,and he wants to be with him forever.
(Also,I think we're totally gonna get the crepe date,like,because mha is a comedy,after the confession Izuku asks Katsuki to go on a crepe date with him,like in the lamest way possible,because he's so inexperienced with romance,so then we have the romantic implications cannon,but in a way that's true to the series,y'know?)

hello, could you please do a reading on how jake from enhypen would be like as a bf? thank you. <3
yes i can <3
Tumblr media
What is Jake like as a boyfriend?
Tumblr media
Remember: This reading offers possibilities, not guarantees. Jake's true personality and relationship style would depend on his individual experiences and choices. This is for entertainment purposes only
As a boyfriend:
Tarot cards: knight of cups, justice, and six of pentacles
Right of the bat, I can tell he’s a charmer. Jake’s a charmer. He’s a romantic guy too.
Jake's a romantic guy who's very good at picking up on his partner’s feelings. He also doesn't hold back when it comes to showing how much he cares (knight of cups).
However, Jake put so much emphasis on being fair. It’s likely that he would be romantic with his partner if they’re also doing the same for him.
The Justice card hints that Jake values honest communication and a balanced dynamic in relationships. He probably wants to hear your perspective and have honest conversations.
Fairness seems to be a big deal for Jake. He likely wants a relationship where both parties have a say and feel treated equally (think "give and take").
The key is to make Jake feel like his effort is being recognised. This way, Jake would do everything for his partner. This is because Jake is a provider (six of pentacles).
I say this because when it comes to relationships, Jake might be generous with his time and resources, always there to lend a hand. He likely values financial stability and wants to build a secure future together.
Based on these cards, Jake is a charmer and a romantic person. However, he won’t show this side of him easily until he feels appreciated or when the relationship feels balanced enough (think give and take). Once Jake feels like his expectations are met, he will shower his partner with love and money.
Jake’s Potential Red Flag in a Relationship:
Tarot cards: nine of pentacles, the emperor, and the moon reversed
Okay this guy reminds me of Jungwon a bit. They both have something in common and that is worrying too much about materialistic things (nine of pentacles).
Nine of pentacles to me also means control.
In a relationship reading, Jake might be overly concerned with material possessions or financial security. He might also have a tendency to control aspects of the relationship to feel secure (nine of pentacles).
This is off topic. Jake might be into women with power or has material possessions. Jungwon might be into them too.
With the Emperor card next to the right of the nine of pentacles further emphasised Jake’s need to control his romantic relationship.
I tried to dig deeper whether this is need to control or dominate the relationship. However, he doesn’t feel domineering, but controlling? Yes.
While positive aspects are leadership and decisiveness (the emperor), a shadow side can be dominance and a need to be in charge. This card reinforces the control aspect from the Nine of Pentacles Reversed.
Another irony is that, although Jake puts emphasis on give and take and honest communication. Jake might struggle with expressing his true feelings or have a tendency to withdraw emotionally.
These cards tells me Jake is someone with control issues and or has tendencies to control his relationships. Despite his need to control his relationship, he struggles to show and express his emotions openly. This could make his partner feel suffocated and the relationship would lack emotional connection, especially with the emphasis on material issues.
Jake’s Green Flags in a Relationship
Tarot cards: the emperor, two of cups reversed, the world, nine of cups, and king of cups
Jake has controlling issues. It is both his greatest strength and weakness.
Jake may be controlling, but he does it because he is someone who takes initiatives. The Emperor card, though sometimes pointing to control, can also mean strong leadership, clear decision-making, and a deep sense of responsibility. In a relationship, Jake might be the one who takes charge, offers support and direction, and works towards building a secure and lasting foundation for his partner.
While this card can indicate an imbalance, two of cups reversed can also suggest a willingness to overcome challenges and work towards a stronger connection. Jake might be open to addressing any imbalances in the relationship and working towards harmony.
These cards alone tells me Jake is someone who takes control of his romantic relationship, but sometimes it can come off as controlling. Most of the time he might take initiative and wants to be seen as the one wearing the pants in the relationship.
The world card also suggests ake might be someone who seeks a long-term, committed relationship that brings him a sense of fulfillment. This card compliments Jake's need of controlling the relationship because he might be the type to want the relationship to last long. However, this could translate as "This is how I do things".
Thankfully, with the nine of cups and king of cups, Jake's green flags compliments his red flags. Although he can be controlling. Jake is someone who is prioritizes his partner's happiness and actively tries to fulfill their needs and desires (nine of cups) and might be a supportive and understanding boyfriend who is attuned to his partner's emotional needs.
Based on these cards, Jake seems like a reliable, supportive, and emotionally intelligent boyfriend. He values a balanced and fulfilling relationship, takes initiative, and actively seeks to make his partner happy.
Jake's Love Language:
Tarot cards: eight of swords reversed, page of pentacles, and the world
Based on these cards, Jake's primary love language seems to be a combination of Acts of Service and Quality Time, with an emphasis on growth within the relationship.
Eight of Swords: In a love language context, it suggests Jake might express his love by taking initiative and doing things to make his partner's life easier (Acts of Service).
Page of Pentacles: Jake might express his affection by doing things for you. These gestures would demonstrate his commitment and how much he wants to learn about what makes his partner tick.
The World: In a love language context, could suggests Jake sees a relationship as a journey of growth together, where both partners support each other's development.
Love Language Interpretation:
Quality Time: Quality time seems important to Jake, but with a focus on shared growth and experiences. He might enjoy activities that allow for deeper connection and learning, like taking a class together or exploring a new hobby (The World).
Acts of Service: Jake might express his love by going out of his way to make his partner's life easier or show he's been paying attention to his partner's needs. Imagine, Jake doing the dishes after a meal. He would do it because it makes his partner's life easier.
Tumblr media
Chanelled song for Jake:
