#i feel like a celibate monk

[liu-yu-xin]

Tmi or whatever but is it normal for ur menstrual cycle to completely dictate how horny u are to the point that basically no outside influences can change it and its so precise that its more accurate than any other period prediction method. Every month i get two weeks of nothing like im less horny than a monk in the mountains who has dedicated his life to achieving this level of celibacy and disconnect from sexuality. And then the second i feel the urge to jerk off ik my period is coming the next day. Then my period for a week then the week after im jerking off twice before i even get out of bed and thinking wow why dont i do this more and then the horny week ends and im back to not even thinking about it

#and it doesnt even feel as good outside of that week every month. like 30% worse i would say #and it grosses me out to even think about it during my 2 celibate monk weeks #this is a pattern I’ve noticed in the past few years. hormones are so real and so punctual its crazy #normal or not tho i dont think this is a problem to fix im quite happy with how that worked out #sidney talks shit

I'm sorry for dumping all this to you, you can not read it, this is not a question but Arrin has been my Roman Empire since Christmas. This is my first time writing just for the sake of it (much less NSFW) so yeah... (you can ignore this)

Ok, so imagine that one day, Darling is feeling really fucking horny. I am not talking about "Arrin's pheromones strikes again", "Usual Needy Darling", or even "Somehow A/B/O exists in this era and Darling got all the omega-ness". I'm talking talking H O R M Y. So you decide to also test out your beloved mate's stamina and see if you can outlast him in bed

It wasn't that bad at the beginning of the day. Arrin wakes up first. Cuddles your sleeping form. Spoons you or if he still has his cock inside you (you were bouncing on him last night and you just slept on top of him), maybe grind into you slowly (soft enough to not wake you up), maybe a kiss or two or ten on the face. When you wake up, one of you cooks breakfast (if you guys won't do some morning fun times before that), and you guys feed each other (mostly him feeding you). Maybe a cuddle before you both leave for the day

At first, you were just nuzzling into him. You cling his arm or torso whenever he's not doing anything and when you guys get some down time, you sit on his lap, nuzzling you face into the crook of his neck while he wraps his arms around you. By the afternoon, you're sucking him off and nibbling his neck. He is now grinding into you but you, for some reason, won't let him get you off. Your clinginess and horny levels are skyrocketing (due to the lack of release), by the end of the day and when you guys are at home, you pounce onto him. Kissing him and begging him to please BREED YOU. You guys go at it for R O U N D S. Arrin is a bit surprised at how eager you are today. You guys always want each other but this is different somehow. After 10+ rounds of you guys cumming, you are still very needy and are now on top of him after doing so many positions. Your stomach now bulging at little bit due to the amount of cum in you that there are puddles on the bed and other areas of the bedroom. Arrin is beginning to be a little bit tired and you are beginning to get overstimulated in a slightly painful way but you still want more.

Despite loving the fucked out expressions on your face and how your chubby tummy bulges due to his cum making you look pregnant (does wonders to his breeding kink fr fr ngl), he is starting to get worried for you but couldn't do anything due to how much you've been pawing at him, whimpering to not stop, begging him to kiss you and mark you, staring at him with that needy doe eyes and how even though you are now laying on his chest on top of him, you are still bouncing on him like his purpose in life is to breed you (maybe it is)

You cum on him for the nth time, your needy dripping hole also milking his cock, filling you up with once again with his cum. You ride out your orgasm which, combined with the feeling of his fresh warm cum inside of you, just makes you cum again on top of him on top of the previous orgasm. Pleasure blinding you that you pass out from it all.

Arrin waits for a minute to collect himself and to check on you (seeing as you sometimes pass out for 30 seconds or go to sleep immediately after your sessions). It's been 3 minutes, he's been tapping your face and you're still limp and not waking up. So he decides to just go to sleep and maybe you'll be fi--

10 minutes later, an entire floor of the local hospital has been destroyed due to the Chief's rampage and was only stopped when you woke up

After all that mess is over, he did not touch you in a sexual way nor did he grant his darling mate's wish for breeding in fear of the same incident happening again. He turned into a fucking celibate monk that was somehow not swayed by his sexy mate's pleas and whines, not even when they're nuzzling into him and pawing at him and giving him that puppy dog eyes. You're the Beggiest Beggar in All of Begdom and he's still not budging. After all, being Chief requires strong will and sacrifice for the greater good and you, my dear, are the greatest good he's ever had and he's not gonna lose you

Well maybe it wouldn't hurt to do it, if that means you're going to stop giving him that sad teary face

You're getting only three rounds and a full body massage though ... You still need to rest

Sorry for that, I just really wanted to write a joke about Darling Reader fainting due to excessive cumming with the very very slightest touch of Cum Overdose and Arrin running to and destroying the hospital in worry... also I want feral Arrin, it can be very hot for a mostly chill and sane man plus or minus a little bit of kidnapping and neck snapping to go feral once in a while especially for our sake

The fact that someone wrote a whole fanfic about my work is extremely flattering.

Also if anyone else wants to write something like this, everyone is free to use my OCs and post their work as long as they note that it's fanfiction and link to the original fic or to my blog.

i've seen people get confused at the fact that as aspec visibility increases, conservatives have started calling asexuality perverted, because asexuality is hard to present as hypersexual. First of all this is conflating sexual attraction and sexual behavior, ace people aren't all virgin sex repulsed celibates or live like monks. But i get that given how little conservatives know about ace people it is fair to assume they'd make that assumption. More importantly, this is missing the aspect of the christian conception of sexuality as a temptation that must be, first of all never spoken about, recognizing your own lack of sexual attractiong is knowing too much sexual education in their eyes, second, overcome to prove your love for god, third, is not up to you to define but up to god. If you feel no attraction, there's no virtue in not "committing the sin of carnal desire", and ace people who have sex are seen as doing so outside of strict bodily neccessity and thereful sinful as well. Plus of course the regular belief that every human must procreate and it's god's design that they have kids to further the species etc etc

Deathless Death

Pairing: Osferth x nameless female character (third person perspective) Warnings: Religious guilt. Smut. Fingering. Slight exhibitionism. Oral (f receiving). Gratuitous Hozier references. Word count: tbc

Summary: When a young woman's father is killed following Skade's attack on the priests of Alton, Osferth agrees to take responsibility for her, feeling a need to protect a fellow Christian. However, the longer they travel together the deeper they have each other questioning their faith. Based on this request.

Coming soon! Snippet below the cut.

“Do you still believe in God?” She asks quietly.

Her gaze is timid and as Osferth turns to meet her eye, she looks to her lap as though ashamed to have asked.

“Of course I do, my lady,” He replies softly, smiling at her. He wants more than anything for her to look at him again, there is something reverent in the way she regards him that makes his chest swell and his cock twitch. He could die happily with a single glance his way from her. “My faith has never waivered.”

“You are not as devout as the people from back home.” Her fingers pinch and stroke over the fabric of her skirt as she says this, not looking up at him as he sits across from her.

“I used to be,” He admits with a slight shrug, wondering if she thinks less of him for his perceived lack of faith. “I suppose travelling with Uhtred has taught me that faith does not mean deprivation. The Lord made life for living.”

She nods, her voice barely above a whisper, as her eyes flicker to his. “Is that why you visit brothels, and why those women fight over you?”

He feels his cheeks heat up as she asks this, and suddenly it’s his turn to look away, embarrassed. He takes a moment to consider his reply, not wanting to sully her innocence with vulgarity, or say anything that might frighten her. “I was celibate when I was a monk…” He begins awkwardly. “I’m not anymore. Truthfully, experiencing the pleasures of the flesh feels like the closest experience to meeting God without dying.”

He knows he has turned pink all the way to the tips of his ears by the time he finishes speaking, he cannot bear to look at her for fear of what he might see in her eyes. She must think he is utterly depraved.

The moment of silence between them hangs thick and uncomfortable before she finally breaks it. “If that is why you are fought over…then I am eager to find out for myself.”

His head snaps up, his eyes wide, stunned and unsure of if he has heard correctly, it seems too forward a statement for such a pious little thing like her. However, her stare is steady and unwavering as it meets his, causing his breath to hitch. He hadn’t misheard her and she meant every word.

I love Mu Qing so much but I think his story arc would be way more interesting if he was canonically allosexual. Gay, bi, straight, doesn't really matter to me. I just think it would add even more complexity to his character. Like it's hard for a lot of monks and nuns to keep their vows during a normal human lifetime, Mu Qing's will power must be absolutely insane if he's 800+ years old, still experiencing sexual attraction and still choosing to uphold his vows. I don't know if he was just being catty when he called Xiao Ying ugly or if he felt the need to comment because he is attracted to women like that but my head canon is that he is at least bisexual. We know that both Mu Qing and Feng Xin act more freely in their disguises so I feel like he probably only made that comment because it's the only time he can actually admit to anyone that yeah, women can be pretty like that. Maybe not this particular one, but since Xiao Ying was the focus in this situation I feel like he probably would've complimented her instead if he actually thought she was really pretty. Like yeah Mu Qing is known for being a bit of a bitch, but even bitchy people are only bitchy about things that they at least somewhat care about.

I think another hint is Mu Qing's reaction in the women's bath house. Our boy hid his face in his hands and screamed. We know he isn't scared of women like Feng Xin is. He was obviously overwhelmed by some kind of emotion though. He was shown having a look around before he realized he shouldn't be doing that. Mu Qing canonically easily blushes because his skin is so pale, but he didn't blush in this scene. Which leads me to think he didn't scream out of embarrassment. He didn't have the typical pervert reaction to it, but he wasn't exactly chill about it either. He could've easily sneaked out without drawing attention to himself if he didn't scream, so why did he do that? I think he screamed, hid his face in his hands and started mentally reciting the ethics sutra. Xie Lian is funny because he started reciting the ethics sutra when Jian Lan tried to hit on him even though he definitely didn't need to. 😂 But because of that we know that is what they were taught to do when faced with "tempting" situations (Xie Lian was just still operating under the assumption that he was straight). So Mu Qing didn't blush out of embarrassment, he had a look around but not in the stereotypical pervert way, and then he screamed. I think the scream was probably induced by intrusive thoughts. Like he has been following the same cultivation path for 800 years, he obviously doesn't want to have thoughts like that, and since intrusive thoughts are by definition unwanted that is probably why he didn't blush and probably why he screamed.

Plus it would be a nice foil to Xie Lian who was able to uphold his vows seemingly without any trouble, minus the one time he was literally poisoned. I feel like Mu Qing's internal dialouge would be like "Oh she's pretty. Too bad my dick don't care. (It definitely cares)." I just think it would be interesting and probably kind of funny. Plus if it was canon it would add an extra hint to his true character if it was revealed earlier on in the books. It's really easy to assume that anyone who's a virgin for 800+ years is on the ace spectrum because most allo people just don't have it in them to be celibate that long.

Priest RZK? Priest RZK. That's some gourmet shit right there. Discuss.

Hi 👀

Ah yes. The age old brainrot of Priest RZK which is still going strong, caused by the infamous music video which also brought us, apart from a very fabulous Richard, a suave Monk-Olli and yet another Schneider with a puppy-moment, which still causes people to lose it every other day:

Now, to examine this fascination with Priest RZK properly, it's somewhat important to look at some general and at some more specific points regarding the attraction to priests and men of the church:

First and foremost, they're meant to be celibate (at least in the catholic church, which is my point of view here). They're actually unattainable and off limits as a romantic and/or sexual partner since they vowed loyalty and love to the church and are definitely not meant to stray from this path in any way. Which kind of, if we use theological terms here, makes them some kind of 'forbidden fruit' so to speak.

-> If a priest, who vowed to be celibate, desires someone, it can become a test of his vocation, which can have life-altering consequences, emotional turmoil, unrequired longing and love and maybe ultimately even a secret affair - a whole lot of potential drama, which can be quite a thrill for some people.

They are (or should be in the best case) there for people in need. Listening to concerns, giving out advice, keeping secrets to themselves and overall representing some form of (fatherly) confidant and advisor, most of the time in one-on-one conversations - roles which can become quite loaded with emotion and emotional intimacy, so to speak.

-> Priests can be (for some religious women, like here) an embodiment for care and security, like a safe dream vision to project inner longings on without running the risk of being disappointed (since acting on these feelings is out of question).

In the linked articled above, a survey among catholic women gathered the following typical traits for a priest in women's eyes: 'different to other men’, he ‘pays attention to me’, ‘listens to me’, is ‘sensitive’ and ‘intelligent’; thus oftentimes traits these women miss in their own lives/relationships. Attraction to priests can point in the direction of "a search for both alternative models of masculinity and alternative experiences of male authority" (especially for women who suffered under these social structures, but not only) - a man which moves outside of the common norms and male behaviour patterns.

Regarding Richard, I can imagine that the following thoughts might come into play when it comes to the insane attraction of the concept of him as a priest:

Richard in priest robes looks so good, so modest and serious, and so wrong. Since we kind of know he's not the most steady person regarding relationships and definitely does not live anywhere near the realms of celibacy, this contrast between his way of life and that of a priest can be quite alluring and in my mind creates the picture of a somehow corrupt and opportunistic priest, which absolutely does not help. (Not thinking about him piously celebrating mass and then making you drop to your knees in the confessional 5 minutes later, nope)

Richard is a great listener and very interesting and interested conversation partner, so he would make a great priest regarding giving out advice and listening to problems and sorrows. To confide in him in a private setting, only for the situation to turn out like this is a brainrot which accompanies me for quite some time now 👍🏼

The terminology of adressing him. Quoting 'Fleabag' here:

This (or to be the reason the poor priest has to turn to drastic measures to keep his desires in check, what a dream):

Conclusion: Every day, we stray further away from God on here and do so in lightning speed 👌🏼

hello 😁 was wondering if u had any snippets u would like to share on this lovely day 🤲

lovely anon thank you for asking! feels like i’ve posted a lot of snippets lately but you made me go dig around, so here’s a lestappen one:

————

Charles shifts on his side of the bed and props himself up on his elbow. He looks excited. Max knows this is not always a good sign.

“I saw this thing on Twitter—” Charles says.

“You are on there too much.”

“I know, but let a celibate man have his indulgence, oui?”

“Celibate.” Max mutters, knowing what they do together is nothing of the sort.

“We are basically monks now. Besides the sex, obviously. And anyway, you are distracting me from the point. It is an exercise. Getting to know each other better, this type of thing.”

“Okay. And?”

“It is a list of questions to ask each other. But for now I only want to ask one.”

“Zeg eens.”

Charles looks very serious suddenly. Eyes big like dinner plates. Max quite likes when Charles is like this. Like a dog with a bone. He would make a good hunting dog, Max thinks. But a friendly one. One that would run the pack down and exhaust himself until the thing gets done. The Scuderia is his herd, in a way. Always an errant sheep to be chased, but he knows Charles likes his purpose, likes doing his job, even if the WDC continues to elude him. Max knows, because he has been there before too, chasing and chasing until his dream was fulfilled. That was before he knew there was another dream he wanted, close to his grasp. A dream he now has in his hands, lucid and real and touchable in his own bed. Whether it is more complicated because Max is the obstacle to Charles’s WDC is a problem for another time.

Charles leans in, engulfing the view in front of Max. “You must answer this honestly, yes?”

“Sure.”

“What are you afraid of?”

Do you think Macaque could have been jealous of Wukong’s relationship with Tripitaka? I've seen a fanart saying that Wukong never made an effort with Macaque. Do you think that he was jealous that Tripitaka did what he himself couldn't do, try more like what Tripitaka did?

Definitely

Macaque doesn't admit it, but he's as jealous and romantically paranoid as PIF can be.

To Macaque, Wukong is jumping through all of these supernatural hoops for some human monk, while in the past Wukong was happy to just exist with Mac... It's easy for a guy to get jealous.

Its probably felt more to Wukong that he didn't have to make an effort with Mac. They were happy lying in the sun, getting fat off fruit after all! Then Tripitaka helps SWK tackle his self-destructive habits while on pilgrimage and he starts to think "huh, maybe I could have treated Mac a lot bett- oh dang Mac's here and he's hurting Master!!!" Cue split-second decision on who needed more protecting (Tripitaka obvs cus he's useless in a fight) and Macaque saw the choice an ultimatum.

Wukong doesn't understand it, not until him and Mac have a good talk about it (whether in the au, or post-s4). SWK is ofc grossed out that Mac thought his connection to Tripitaka could be anything but platonic. And Mac feels a little stupid/smug that he worried so much about a celibate monk posing as a romantic rival to him.

Dang, now I really want a scene where Mac and Tripitaka actually like... talk things out. Maybe have Tang get possessed by the monk, or contact him via dreams/the afterlife? Something to help give both closure.

If you want to be added, comment down!

Masterlist

"There's no way you can keep it in your pants for a year," Bradley states, leaving his beer on the table. They're all sitting in one of the tables next to the darts  at the Hard Deck. It's their usual. Nobody sits there. 

Jake rolls his eyes, twirling the beer bottle in his hands. "I love some supportive friends." 

Mickey laughs, not raising his head while he scrolls on Instagram. "Jake, you like sex. I would say you even love sex."

"Yeah, what about it?"

The wizzo raises an eyebrow and puts his phone down. "You're gonna live with a hot girl for a year, with all that implies, and not be tempted to get laid even once?"

"I can do that." 

Is now Payback’s turn to show disbelief. "Man, chances are one day you open the bathroom door and she's there naked. That's gonna be frustrating." 

Jake’s leg bounces up and down. No, he's not imagining you naked. Not a chance. "Guys, this isn’t about me, okay? This is about Emma. And if I have to be a fucking celibate monk for a year, I'll be." 

"Sure thing, buddy," Nat says, getting up from her chair to get another drink. 

"Are we going to ignore the fact that you had a crush on her once?" Javy asks, making Jake widen his eyes, surprised at how his friend just exposed him like that in front of the rest of the group. 

"It was one time, and it was right before she dumped my ass.” Jake groans, looking away. 

“For her to dump your ass, you must have been dating in advance, and if I remember correctly, you didn’t even make it to the restaurant.” Rooster jokes, high fiving Payback and Fanboy. These three are always trying to find ways to mess up with the pilot. 

“I hate you all.” 

A comfortable silence falls over the table, all of them thinking about the way Jake’s life has changed so much in only a few weeks. Jake has always been a playboy, a ladies’ man, he knows he’s good looking and he has no shame in saying it out loud. But now he’s married and has a daughter. He could go out and hook with whatever girl he wanted. However, Jake is better than that. He has made a promise. By law, and by his own promise, he’s devoted to you. Not in a romantic way, but he respects you enough to know that you don’t deserve any of that. And he can’t go around fucking the first girl he mets if you are going to focus on emma for a whole year. 

“I’m taking the girls to my parents’ ranch next week.” 

This time, the silence is deafening. “Your parents. The same parents you don’t talk with after you broke the engagement with that rich country girl?” 

Javy’s words make everyone stare at Jake with open mouths. “You were engaged!?”

“Yeez, Nat, say it louder. I think even Cyclone has heard you from his office.” Jake should have known that this information would have been revealed sooner or later. But he wanted it to be on his terms—not like this. 

Rooster pushes his drink away, wiping a few beer droplets from his mustache. “Dude, you were engaged, you broke it off, and you’re going to show up there with not only a wife, but your best friend’s daughter?” 

With pursed lips and an unfocused gaze, Jake nods. He’s deep in thought, suddenly realizing that he is, indeed, going to rub it in his parents' faces about how he got married to another girl. Well, it seems like this is a win-win situation for everyone. “How I wish I could capture my dad’s face when he sees Page.” 

“Does she know about this?” Bob asks this while cleaning his glasses. 

Jake shakes his head. “I’ll tell her on the way there.” 

“Can I ask a question?” Payback says, raising a finger once he sees how the corner of Jake’s mouth twitches in an attempt to suppress a smile. “And don’t say I asked one already.” 

“Yeah, go ahead.” 

“Why didn’t you marry that girl?” 

For a second, Jake thought that he was about to ask what his feelings were toward Page. And he was afraid to think about it. It wasn’t love, that's for sure. But that infatuation he felt is becoming something more… and he’s not sure if he wants to or if he should, allow that to happen. “I didn’t want to.” 

“Was she hot?” 

“Damn, she was.” Javy says, and Jake is really close to throwing something at his friend for his running mouth. 

“Then?” 

“I didn’t love her.” 

The answer, as simple and logical as it seems, makes all the aviators in the table look at Jake with puzzled expressions, as if the words coming from his mouth weren’t his. “Oh, but you are able to feel love?” Natasha jokes, chuckling at her own joke. 

Jake knows it’s a joke, but he feels hurt. “I’m gonna go home and start packing things. Page is gonna start posting pictures of us on her insta, so it would be very helpful if you could comment on them, saying good things and how proud you are of us,” he mumbles while getting up. Bob looks at Rooster, telling him with only his eyes that he should go with Hangman, but Rooster knows better. Jake needs some time alone. “Oh, by the way. I am as able to feel love as anyone, in fact, I have been looking for it longer than any of you. I would appreciate it if you stopped thinking that I only go looking out for girls to put my dick in them.” 

And without leaving them time to reply, Jake leaves the Hard Deck. 

“I have to confess something.” 

Those are the words that Jake tells you once you’re on the road after landing in Houston, where his parents' ranch is. You didn’t imagine that those words would lead to him telling you how his parents wanted to marry him to this rich girl so they could save the ranch. Apparently, in the last ten years, the ranch has had more losses than profits, and this arrangement would have saved it. 

Now, however, nobody knows how much time there is until they have to close the ranch and leave that life behind. 

“I’m sorry to hear that, Jake.” You tell him, not knowing what more to say. 

Jake shakes his head, pushing his sunglasses up his nose. “Don’t be. I don’t want to marry without being in love.” 

You can’t hold back your laugh. Ironic, isn’t it? He breaks off an engagement because he doesn’t want to marry without love, and here you are. Mrs. Seresin in the flesh, and not a bit of love between you two. 

“Well, you know what I mean, Page.” 

“I do, of course. But it seems like life has pulled the biggest uno reverse card.” 

It’s a way of seeing it, Jake thinks. But if he had to choose between marrying you again or marrying that country girl, he would choose you. 

Every single time. 

“We have to play the lovey-dovey couple, right?” You ask, knowing the answer already, but somehow just wanting to keep talking with him. Either to kill time or just because way down you enjoy talking with him.

"Yeah, but I don't think that's a problem for you, Miss Hollywood." He teases, looking at you.

"Oh, so now that you know my intentions as an actress, Page is now Miss Hollywood?"

Jake thinks for a second, scratching his chin while the other hand stays on the wheel. "Nah, you're always gonna be Page for me."

You don't realize how your smile makes him smile too.

The ranch is less than an hour away from Houston, fronting the Brazos River. The house is bigger than you imagine, and just looking at it from the outside makes you realize that this is not a small ranch and that the house itself costs a few million dollars. White paint covers the gable wall in front of you, and it looks very new. Not even one of the tiles from the clay roof is out of place, making you rethink all the information that Jake gave you on the way here. Why would he lie to you? 

But seeing the expression on Jake’s face tells you that he didn’t know that the house was in such a good state... as well as the rest of the ranch. 

Why, then, were they so persistent in getting Jake to marry this girl for money?

When the car comes to a halt, an elderly couple walks out of the main house. The lady is a carbon copy of Jake. The same hair, the same eyes. Same smile. She appears to be the sweetest woman you've ever seen, but there's something in her eyes and the way she looks at Emma, who is being held by Jake, that makes you want to get in the car and drive all the way back to Houston to catch the first flight to San Diego. 

Jake's father, on the other hand, gives you the creeps. Call it female intuition; call it whatever you want, but you don’t want to be alone with him. He has white hair, blue eyes, glasses, and stubble. From this distance, you’d say that he’s the same height as Jake, maybe even a bit taller. He looks like a good man, but the way his fist tightens around the silver buckle on his jeans makes you wonder how many times he has unbuckled that belt to hit Jake or his wife. 

“Jacob, my son! We weren’t expecting you so soon,” Jake’s mother says, approaching Jake to hug him. The soft wind ruffles her golden locks and rippling the hem of her white dress, allowing you to see her brown cowboy boots. 

“Hey, ma. Sorry for coming so soon. I don’t know when I’m going to be deployed, and I want you two to meet my wife.” He says, stepping back from his mother’s arms and placing his hand on the small of your back. “This is y/n, my wife. And this is our daughter, Emma.” 

The heat that travels through your body from head to toe is not due to the hot Texan morning. He didn’t hesitate to call you his wife, or Emma, his daughter. Not even a second. It seems like he has finally come to terms with it. 

“Your daughter? That girl doesn’t look like any of you. And since when do you have a wife?” Jake’s father yells, scaring poor Emma. You take her from Jake’s arms, trying to calm her down. 

“It’s okay, baby girl. Don’t worry. You’re okay.” You whisper while kissing her head and rocking her in your arms. 

“Dad, she’s Luke’s daughter. Luke and Anne died in an accident a month ago. We’re her parents now,” Jake explains, opening the car to look for Emma’s favorite toy: a soft rabbit plushie. It calms her every time. Jake plays with the toy for a bit, making the rabbit kiss Emma’s chubby cheeks, and once she’s laughing and making grabby hands to catch the toy, Jake smiles and turns towards his dad. 

“Why didn’t you invite us to the wedding?” The older Seresin questions are moving dangerously closer to your small group. You take a small step back, an action that Jake notices. He grabs your hand in his, offering you some support. He said that his dad wasn’t an easy person, but you didn’t imagine that the first meeting would go like this.

“We married at the courthouse. No one came.” 

“Why? Is she an immigrant?” He looks you up and down, clenching his jaw at the thought of his son marrying someone like that. 

“What? No!” You protest, not understanding why his first thought is that you are illegal.

Jake takes a deep breath, pinching the bridge of his nose. “She’s not an illegal, dad. And stop asking those questions.” 

“I just want to know why my son married someone like...her.” 

It’s impossible not to feel offended when someone refers to you with only a few words, but with a lot of meaning embedded in them. In his eyes, you’re not worthy. You’re not good for his son. And even though you don’t want to be worthy, because you couldn’t care less about their approval, it still hurts to be looked down on. 

“I don’t think I have to give you any more explanations than the ones I gave you already. You want to know how we met? I can tell you. You want to know how she is way too good for me? I can also tell you that. You want to know how we were supposed to marry in a few months? Yeah, I’ll tell you. I’ll tell you how I had to marry her early so we could adopt Emma. And the only reason I’m here is because I still have a bit of respect and love for you two and wanted to introduce you to my wife. She’s a famous writer and scriptwriter, and a wonderful, brilliant, and beautiful woman. She’s way out of my league, and if you have any other stupid commentary to say about her, I’m going to get in my car and drive away as fast as I can.” 

You can feel both males having a stare-down, waiting for the other to give in. Both of them are too proud to accept a loss. 

“If you make me leave, I swear to God, you won’t ever see me again.” Jake warns, opening the driver’s door. 

Jake’s dad moves his eyes away, losing the battle. He clears his throat. “I’m sorry, kid. I didn’t want to say those things. You know how stupid I can be.” He looks at you, takes off his Stetson, and nods. “I’m sorry, girl. I just want the best for my son, and I’m sure that you’re better than I could ask for. Come inside. It’s getting too hot for that little kiddo to be out here.” 

You look at Jake, giving him the choice to leave or stay. He places his hand on your hip, bringing you closer to hear him whisper in your ear. “He won’t say anything else to you, but say it, and we leave.” 

“It's okay,” you whisper back, caressing his cheek and acting like the loving wife that you were supposed to be. “Are you sure you want to stay?” 

“Darlin’, I’ve been living with them all my life. But you haven’t. I don’t want you to feel uncomfortable.” He grabs your hand and kisses your knuckles, his chapped lips contrasting with the soft skin of your hand. 

“Don’t leave me alone with him, and I’ll be okay.” You reassure him, smiling. 

“You’re not going anywhere without me.” 

You don’t know if he’s aware of the words he’s saying, how they sound more real than they should be, or how it makes your heart flutter for a small second. You have to remind yourself that this is all fake, that he is only being nice to you because you two need to convince his parents that this is a real marriage, and that you are not going to divorce in a year. 

This is going to be harder than you thought.

Some random Journey to the West headcanons because the hyperfixation is strong tonight:

Sanzang is aroace (so even if he wasn’t a monk and celibate, he still wouldn’t be interested in any of the people or demons who wanna do the do with him)

He didn’t have many friends growing up in the monastery, so his first year or so of the journey was kind of awkward for him, since he didn’t really know how to interact with people

Wukong is autistic (it’s canon guys Wu Cheng’en told me himself) and stims by jumping around, wagging his tail, and doing the hand flappy thing. Sanzang is ALSO autistic and stims by rubbing the hem of his kasaya between his fingers and whispering certain sutras to himself (echolalia)

Bajie hates sour foods with a passion. He’ll eat literally anything else, though

Wukong and Wujing have been trying to figure out how to test if he’ll even eat things that are not food, such as leaves or loose strings they rip off their clothes. So far they have been unsuccessful

Wujing has the best singing voice (it’s super deep and absolutely lovely to listen to). Sanzang’s pretty good, but he doesn’t like to do it in front of other people. Long Ma’s not bad if he tries, but he just doesn’t really care to practice anymore. Bajie’s not good in any sense of the word, but at least he’s not tone-deaf. Nobody wants to hear Wukong’s singing voice ever again

Long Ma is super clumsy—not, like, “oh no I’m such a klutz I tripped over air and fell right into your strong masculine arms” clumsy, more like “I can’t take two steps without smashing into a wall or knocking over a lamp and I have bruises all over my body from it” kind of clumsy

One of the main things that Wukong and Sanzang bonded over (once they learned how to get along) was never really having a family before the journey. Sanzang hadn’t known anything about his parents until he was 18 (I think), and only had his mom for a little bit before she committed su*c*de. Wukong had never even HAD parents in the first place, he has no clue what a blood family is really like. Wukong’s one of the first people Sanzang really feels comfortable enough around to open up to about his past, since he knows the Monkey King will understand

The first time Long Ma turned into his humanoid form in front of the whole group, Bajie and Wujing freaked out because they forgot he could do that

They also screamed when he spoke in horse form for the first time

Sanzang is a history nerd, but only really for Buddhism-related history and that of his own town, since that was all that interested him before going on the journey west and it’s kind of hard to study when you’re constantly on the road (this one’s based on how he knew about the Spread Gold Monastery in the wedding ball arc)

The smell of molten iron causes Wukong to have PTSD flashbacks

havelock vetinari is a gay man. but also i cannot envision him having gay sex or any kind of sex at all. but not because he's asexual or anything, it's just impossible to imagine vetinari being in an intimate or vulnerable situation. i cant even imagine him sleeping. he probably just sleeps standing up with his eyes open. maybe he just chooses to be celibate like a monk. instead of actual gay sex he just raises his eyebrow at another man homoerotically except its indistinguishable from when he raises an eyebrow normally. also ive decided i will die on my anti vetvimes hill. vimes is such a cishet guy to me and vetinari is not and has never been in love with or attracted to vimes. he may or may not have something going on with leonard of quirm. and lady margolotta is definitely serving cougar who's best friends with an old queen. vetinari has never publically identified himself as gay or having a same sex relationship (or any relationship at all) but I feel like everyone just kinda knows he's gay but won't say it out loud. if you bring it up he will just raise his eyebrow at you. the normal way not the homoerotic way. .....or is it?

LMK Random Thoughts :)

I thought I would share some random thoughts about the people and the show.

The Monkie Crew and the JTTW Pilgrims

With Season Four ending I had a few thoughts about the three reincarnates Tang, Pigsy, and Sandy. Those three have grown with power and skill. So I thought back to their connections to the Pilgrims and thought about the Shamadi Fire episode where they mentioned feeling Deja Vu. This implies they can feel some sort of mental or emotional connection to the Pilgrims and with the memory scroll episodes where they lived a bit in the shoes of their former lives. I felt that this could be an opening for them to gain flashbacks.

I can imagine one of them like Tang looking at Wukong and then getting a voice or flashes of images of their Pilgrim past lives moments with the monkey. As that happens those moments are the real moments we can get some accurate unbiased info on the JTTW and Wukongs' part in all of it, It also can bring up more trauma for Wukong after the "monkey no violence." Can we get context?

Another thing about them is whether we will ever get confirmation if they are just reincarnations or are they blood descendants because especially for Tang it makes no sense for the devout celibate Buddhist monk to marry let alone be a father. It has to be a coincidence or in this universe, Tripitaka had another relative with similar features and that's the way the genetics went.

With Sandy, will we see more of his former past, it would be a very emotional episode to talk about why he stopped fighting was there just one day he stopped or was it an overtime thing? In the To Catch A Leaf episode Hunter had heard about Sandy's past as a great fighter and we get flashes of Sandsy time before. Some people hypothesise that he is Wujing because of the weapons that the fallen opponents used but a lot of demons seem to use old weapons that old saying "Don't fix it if it isn't broken" There are no demons really using modern weapons.

Do we ever get to see what and where Tang worked I mean the guy never seems to want to pay for Pigsy noodles he might at times but not all the time? How is work Also he is the only crew member that we have not seen their home/work.

Pigsy I mentioned in another post but his rivalry with the boar across the street. This would be an awesome rivalry is the boar doing anything to shrink Pigsy's shop. In a hero is born the boar was just as passionate about the war between the two. Maybe with MKs' fame, Pigsy got more popular and due to business the boar moved and that why we don't see him anymore but he comes back and tries to take down Pigsy once and for all in a side plot as revenge or something like that.

With Mei does she ever get to meet the other dragons like North and South what about remeeting Ao Gauge? And I know some people want to talk about her having a rival. Well, what about a dragon cousin who is like a perfectionist and wants to do everything to impress the other dragons' clans. A cousin who is the image of "perfection" for her family it would be like a why can you act more like her situation maybe not from her parents but from other relatives.

MK we are definitely going to be seeing him in his monkey form more often and the first episode will probably be his struggle between the two forms and his new powers.

i love the word celibate because it conjures the impression of a noble monk giving up earthly pleasures in pursuit of a holy cause but i actually just don't feel like it

#our post comrade.

[variousqueerthings]

Coming back to this laaaate, but @brilliantfantasticgeronimo hope it's okay I pull this onto a post, because it's easier for me to focus on than in replies!

this idea that the Doctor lands someplace and ruins everyone's day by being so Badass and Awestriking isn't really a Thing in Nu!Who "is also contrasted with the theme of the doctor inspiring *others* to do things (v Explicit theme in s1 but it's present in all those other CoDs you mention)... re:2, i think the one exception would be 7 but i think with 7 the chess-god-manipulator thing works bc we see the consequences of it thru ace. we also see it w/ amy and river but (cont) but i feel we never quite grapple w/ it emotionally (they adore the doctor anyway in the end) (except for a handful legit, hard-hitting eps like the girl who waited or town called mercy). .. and altho in both classic who and rtd who the companions function as a very important role *in the text*, u can still find fandom completely ignoring that and treating doc's 1-10 as power fantasies as well. so it's smth always there but that moffat rlly made literal also i've really liked your posts on asexuality on dw and idk if you've written this but just in case, i think it's also relevant to the very specific way some het guys are so protective of the doc's asexuality/aromancy(+the show's): "asexuality" as it functions in dw is celebrated by those guys ( i suspect) bc it gives the fantasy power over the "womanly wiles" - it's a proof of how the doc is so "enlightened" and "above" the temptress or seduction trope. (cont) (csdkjf sorry for going ott on replies rip) and it's also why i think in moffat's who the doc's sexuality is kind of tied to the idea of it like... """humbling"" or ""humanizing"" the character (as problematic as those ideas are,,, i think there's a basis to deduct that they come from before in canon)

OKAY SOOOO HI!

I just watched The God Complex right after The Girl Woman Who Waited so I'm riding that high of Consequences! Emotional Follow-through! Mmmm good plots!

I have not actually seen 7 yet outside of cute clips with Ace and ofc when he died due to the American healthcare system + gang warfare if I'm remembering correctly? and became our beautiful bouncing boy Eight, so iiiinteresting that this is a Thing, I didn't know that 👀👀👀👀👀

again, God Complex + Girl Who Waited feel like the most this era has explored Eleven's kinda... vibes around in terms of being some big Machinator who ruins peoples lives by dragging them into his shit, because he cannot Not: "I stole your childhood and now I’ve led you by your hand to your death. But the worst thing is I knew. I knew this would happen, this is what always happens. Forget your faith in me. I took you with me because I was vain. Because I wanted to be adored. Look at you. You’re glorious, Pond, the girl who waited for me. I’m not a hero. I really am just a mad man in a box. And it’s time we saw each other as we really are." Mmmm good stuff

we'll see how the next episodes do/season 7, but I've heard good things about Town Called Mercy which is an episode that I was not taking in at allll last time, because I was kind of... annoyed... by then.... and not really taking in good stuff (unlike this time)

ASEXUALITY ON DW IS LIKE! LOOK I'M WRITING OUT A SCRIPT FOR A YOUTUBE VIDEO BECAUSE IT'S SO FASCINATING RIGHT??? BOTH IN TERMS OF HOW THE CHARACTER EMBODIES AN AROACE IDENTITY AS ALIEN AND AS OTHERED WITHIN THEIR OWN SOCIETY AND AS A PERSON WHO JUST HAPPENS TO BE THESE THINGS --- AND IN HOW FANDOM THINKS ABOUT THE WORD "ASEXUALITY"

(will I ever actually put together a youtube video, who knows, but I could, I edit professionally for parts of my job, and I have the Receipts!) (but the energy of it all youknow)

I am so pleased you spelled out the "womanly wiles" trope, because yes, I hadn't quite seen that, but had been circling around like... the Enlightened Asexual (or the Celibate Monk as I believe M*ffat once called it with reference to Sherlock) (and then someone like Irene Adler is the epitome of that Temptress in his version of the story...)

and what you're saying about "humbling" and "humanising" is so fascinating, because ofc to a bunch of us aces and aros and aroaces the part where the Doctor struggles to form normative relationships is one of the the most humanising factors, and ofc M*ffat especially likes the "Godlike" Doctor quite a bit but it comes back to these ideas of allosexuality and alloromanticism

but then also rejects a lot of those ideas, from memory, for being too simplistic after all, because people struggle to write the Doctor as simply alloromantic and allosexual (I've heard because the Doctor is alien, because the Doctor is more compelling when lonely, because the narrative couldn't sustain it, etcetcetc, but in the end it all comes back to "the Doctor as Character cannot get into these relationships for... reasons...." and that becomes compelling character)

(also Gomez!Master is like "we're so beyond this, we're the best thing ever, we're nemeses, we're besties, my homeboy, my rotten soldier, my silly rabbit," etcetcetc... paraphrased. but that's in M*ffat era)

(the more the show flirts with allosexuality and alloromanticism the more nuanced the Doctor becomes to me as an aroace character! because no longer is it an Enlightened Mightier Than Thou Cannot Be Touched Celibacy type Concept, it's someone who's being affected by deep relationships and very often unable to equate them using simple terms!!!! arghhh it's sooooo!!!! SOOOOOO!!!!!!!)

[comradekatara]

okay wait please if you will elaborate on aang's non-katara dating history i am most interested to see what his love life would look like to you

omg ngl trying to conceive of aang at his full chad potential is v difficult for me bc in my mind he will just always be that cherubic little baby boy.. the idea that he will ever not be 12 is almost..... distressing to me? like i know that people age. that's how time works. but i also refuse to accept it!!!! put him back in that iceberg!!!!! quick before he grows facial hair!!!!!!!!!! (that said...)

i've said before that i feel like he would date one of ty lee's sisters, which is a very lovely concept to me if you subscribe to the theory that ty lee is descended from air nomads, and also just very funny to me because katara is terrified of ty lee and would have to balance being supportive so she doesn't seem jealous, while also strongly disapproving because any relative of ty lee is an enemy of hers!!!!

also i think if aang and on ji ever ran into each other again later on that could be really funny. like she rly has no clue that cute boy who threw the epic cave rager was the avatar. it could be cute if they reunited. sokka wasn't wrong; they had chemistry!

i'm also not opposed to teo/aang, but on the other hand they are such fundamentally similar people in terms of personality that i worry whether spiritually they would be boyfriend twins.... they're definitely really close friends though, and maybe they've made out once or twice. who can say

there used to be a (rly bizarre) debate in the fandom over whether aang should be celibate, because well, he's a monk (even though it's obvious that these monks fuck, like cmon now) or whether it was wrong of him to be in a monogamous relationship w katara bc he should be inseminating as many different women w those airbender genes as possible. i think either way these ppl just didn't like the idea of him with katara. but honestly, while the latter approach is also kind of insane (does he just have a bunch of kids he'll never know??? that seems.... irresponsible) i do think that him having kids with more than one woman is plausible (but like. a normal amount). the idea that when aang dies, tenzin becomes The Last Airbender is very upsetting to me. i think tenzin should at least have some half-siblings. not to mention even if aang's kids can't airbend, they still should be embracing that side of their heritage??? lok really fucked up wrt the exploration of mixed identity, and also just national identity in a postwar age in general... but i digress.

ultimately, i think both aang and katara deserve to have lots of fun sexy flings throughout their teens & adulthood bc even as kids they are both very charming and easily infatuated with random intriguing strangers and i want them to be able to explore that!!!! there are many different ways to be in love, and just because katara and aang will always want each other in some capacity doesn't mean they need to be limited by a reductive mindset of monogamous marriage that i (like to) think both of them would grow out of as they mature.

#beangods #asks #aang #postwargaang #aang&katara #aang&teo #on ji #aang&tylee #ish #lok crit #..ish #rly hard for me to think of aang as anything other than 12 years old ngl #he is my perfect baby boy. my little son #but yeah he is admittedly a chad in training #i cannot deny it

[smhalltheurlsaretaken]

I know that you've written extensively about why forcing the Order to allow 'attachment' (which...99.99% of the time is either a misunderstanding of what that means and really just means "marriage is allowed") is not really Jedi positive (and I agree). I was wondering though, do you think there could be a way for fic to have the Order allow for marriage without totally disrespecting how attachment works in Jedi culture? I ask because there are married Buddhists and I have a few ideas how it may

Maybe.

I'm not familiar enough with Buddhism to comment on the real-world parallels here, but just from an in-universe perspective, there could be some wiggle room without disregarding everything that's established about the Force, how the Order works and why it works like it does. I can see two types of exceptions: - Jedi in situations like Kanan's (isolated from the Order, with his team as only support system, in a committed relationship - since there's no Order to be committed to - but aware of the risks; when feeling emotionally compromised, he asks other people to make the call, like Ezra in the mission to rescue Hera) - for a 'normal' Jedi in the 'normal' Order... intra-Order marriages. The way I figure this would work is that they'd be pretty rare and pretty regulated, but at least they've got a safety net in the form of all the other Knights and Masters who can point it out and step up if things aren't working out. They can be assigned to different missions when impartiality is needed and to the same when it's routine stuff and they work well as a pair.

Why just Jedi marrying Jedi? In an ideal case, both would be equally devoted to their duty, would understand that missions come first in daily life (so no arguments like 'you're never around for me, like Padmé and Anakin had) and that innocent lives come first no matter what (so no sacrificing other people for your personal happiness). I mean, Jedi do have very close friends and other Jedi they consider family and that's basically how they treat those bonds. What's different imo about marriage is that you promise to your spouse to always put them first, which is incompatible with the same vow made to your duty as a Jedi - but if they're both Jedi it might be like they'd be both married to the Order (which in essence is what being a monk is) and to each other. Risky, but who knows.

We see that Jedi raised within the Order from a young age tend to do leagues better than Anakin where dealing with loss or duty is concerned, so I imagine it could, hypothetically, work sometimes.

Ironically enough, that's how Karen Traviss' Altisian Jedi went about it iirc (minus the carefully making sure it doesn't go horribly wrong because 'there's nothing wrong with love ever')? She's not what I'd call positively inclined towards the Order lmao. I also vaguely recall that those relationships she wrote about ended rather terribly. Then again, the main philosophy behind her Altisians was 'Jedi bad, being free and not participating in the war and having sex good.' But as long as that's not the underlying idea behind the fic, yeah, it can work 😂 I mean, it's fic. Almost anything can work.

I wouldn't want it to ever become canon - I prefer my Jedi celibate, tbh, I love that aspect of their characters (yesIknow in canon they don't have to be celibate, but from what we see most never choose to pursue a relationship and I love that about them and tbh I prefer no romantic relationships at all rather than flings) but if I had to write a fic that's how I'd do it. I don't know if they'd call it marriage though

#ask #blenderblender1811 #jedi order #attachment vs love #marriage #i'm in that very weird spot where i belong to the part of the christian faith that sees 'forbidding marriage' as wrong even for leaders #while also recognizing the truth behind 'marrying is good - not marrying is better' where devotion to a calling is concerned #so i'm like: #no relationships out of choice = good. duty and relationship = compatible. casual relationships = nah. committed relationships = yah #which obviously has an influence on my answer #ofc star wars doesn't work like real life and the jedi aren't christians or catholic monks #but where my own taste is concerned i'd rather they all be celibate with maybe the rare fic exception of a jedi marriage (could be cute) #and kanan-like situations
