#im a difficult man <3

[separatist-apologist]

The trick to writing a smut scene for a het pairing from the mans POV is to make him absolutely wrecked. He needs to be full on simping. It doesn't matter if that's not "realistic"- if that dude is taking himself seriously to an unbearable degree, if he's only thinking about himself and his wants- if he's hung up on things like virginity/proving virginity, and pleasure is wholly centered around him- it's ALWAYS going to come off gross and unsexy.

It's supposed to be fantasy, and if your audience is primarily women, then you're writing for the female gaze.

Thanks for coming to my TED talk

#if i have to read one more sex scene where a man is trying to prove a womans virginity and she is just totally fine with this #or its just pure penetration and she gets off in 3 strokes #im going to lose it like how is this difficult to understand??? #like just make him desperate and slutty for the FMC and every though revolves around her pleasure #OR DONT WRITE IT FROM HIS POV

#a doodley #once again very difficult times for the has never been touched community #also recently some fictional men have me questioning things further and its making me sooo miserable #in the sense of like. it wouldnt be enough to t**** a beautiful man i want to be one. too. #i want someone to feel the same way ykwim. eager excited. witnessing beauty. crawling into each others skin. #i want you and i want to wear your face and be desired too. #ugh ugh ugh ugh #i probably wont ever even draw it but the lino piece i want to try making is based off of like. lately... #my skin burns when i see even the imitation of a human body. When i think of it. its so dire #or like i love the human body in general i love studying it bc its so beautiful and interesting no matter what #but i do studies and its like ahh i wanna get closer i wanna get closer im at the zoo i want to jump into the enclosure and get clawed apar #t. (saying this as metaphor bc obviously humans are not things to be owned) but i want my own model to pose and study #closer. and closer. look and touch and examine. #<- 3 seconds away from drawing nefarious shit with talon in this nature but i didnt say that #talkys #🌺

people who are still unironically calling astarion a whore i desperately need you to either play through his story properly or search for it online bc there's no fucking way you are this dense.

#this man was FORCED to sleep with thousands of people. the very idea of sex revolts him and people still see him as the front he puts up #im sorry but people who default to sexualizing characters are so annoying . we have actually well written characters and it means nothing? #media literacy is dead but man it wouldn't hurt to TRY to understand the media you consume. its not that difficult i promise #bg3 spoilers #baldur's gate 3 spoilers #bg3 #baldur's gate 3 #six speaks #astarion ancunin

What if Deadpool and spider punk met?

(Not like in a romantic way I just picture pure chaos taking place)

aight i’ll give it a go..

something very Important To Me in the spider-man and deadpool relationship (gen) is the theme of voluntary change for the better. deadpool’s morals don’t match up with spidey’s, but spidey matters enough to him to want to be good. redemption arcs my beloved

in 616, deadpool is a mercenary, and that doesn’t jive with peter parker’s no-killing policy. hobie, however, has no such qualms, thus the flavor of 138 dp’s divergence must be altered; i’m thinking he might’ve been a retired/fired police officer, or he took government-sponsored merc jobs without caring who the target was—somethin a little fucked up like that idk

then he meets spider-punk. initially, deadpool is obsessed the way you’re obsessed with your friends’ favorite celebrities—loudly, annoyingly, facetiously. hobie at first dislikes him, but doesn’t consider him a big enough player to hate, and since punk’s core moral of radical kindness allows for second chances, he offers dp the opportunity to turn his back on the State. slowly deadpool acclimates to punk values and community, finds himself upholding core tenets of the revolution even when it means he loses out on big fat wads of fascist blood money, and becomes a scene kid

#spider man: across the spiderverse #spider punk #hobie brown #deadpool #wade wilson #sadly im not a multishipper lol this wouldnt have been romantic anyway #i love spideypool but Hobie Has Noir in my heart #i saw one or two other interpretations of 138 dp!! love em!!! #he’s a scene kid though and no one can change my mind #technically scene came around during the 2000s and was influenced by emo culture (1990s) #but fuck it. scene deadpool canon. he even time travels in the comics #or so the wikis tell me #btw he is STILL CANADIAN its just funnier that way <3 #drawing his scars was pretty difficult—i tried to model off of fresh burn scars #idk if i succeeded. but i tried my best :’) #cw eyestrain #scenecore #it hurts MY eyes and i DREW IT

hm hm hm i feel like this will be really interesting to read with the knowledge of korra and how that effected her instead.... because korra (from my limited knowledge so i could be talking out my ass here) knew she was the avatar at an early age and DID get that community. she had katara and her parents, she had her mentors, she was isolated from the real world during so and perfected the elements other than air (which i kinda recall her struggling with and how its the opposite element of earth so im excited to see if those kinda play out :3) and she was more eager to be the avatar and the excitement and significance it brought (which was a bit clouded by her being sheltered but also would have been expected more before the war impacted things)

i also remember matty saying kyoshi struggled with earth bending (which im super excited to get to and see/see her journey and how it will differ) but!!! i just think its really fun how theyre kinda off the bat setting up this expectation and new grounding for readers who have a past grasp of the avatar universe. even as someone who isnt super familiar with the lore, i know enough to recognize that oh! thats something new!! so just kudos to the writer(s?) for just setting this up to be something very different and in a natural way :3

#again. talking out my ass here. if im an idiot no one say anything okay? okay <3 #but i think its fun to already see some parallels or ways kyoshi and korra are different or similar #and how korra got the set-up stage that was considered ideal (i think?) for these two characters #like !!! the avatar is supposed to know theyre the avatar at a young age! #and aang learning when he was 12 instead?? i think? #or being told hey man you gotta fucking get ready/do your teen duties instead of preeteen ones cause theres a war.... #but no sorry my head is scattered i cant keep a line of thought but the point was i know a lot of people bash korra because shes too #‘abrasive’ or comfortable with being the avatar when?? for previous experiences that eagerness was something more expected (i think) #like its so difficult to make a solid grounding argument when im not lore caught up but korras excitement to be the avatar and that she #knows its significant and important is something that would been encouraged before the war because of that hope and belief #that the avatar will keep that balance or save the world when others cant. aang disappearing and the genocide and war #obviously effected how people will see the avatar in universe and how her teachers are more hesitant and restrictive #none of this makes sense im just thinkin to myself while half distracted lol but ! go cringegirl bosses go !!!! #RoK (ransom style)

It's so impossible to convince anyone to watch Lawrence of Arabia 😭 it's like "oh yeah there's this film! And it's so well done and beautiful!! The cinematography and the music is insane! The history and the characters are so interesting!!! It's even pretty reminiscent of that other film you like: Dune!!!! ....but its *cough cough* four hours long..."

#even my parents who saw it on re-release in theaters #and even bought the record of the soundtrack bcs they were so in love w it #will never rewatch it with me 😭😭😭 #it IS a huge time commitment i understand that #i literally watched it across 3 nights bcs it was so long #but its very difficult to get other people to put in that time 🤧 #i just really hope the one theater near me shows it sometime :/ #they show old movies so im very hopeful #but i think it might be even harder to convince someone to sit in a theater for four hours.... #and tbh im really thinking of rewatching it soon bcs dune and my schooling made me appreciate it more #but ah man i like to introduce films to people on rewatch yknow? #like ah come along on this journey with me!!!! #my friend said she'd think abt it 🥺 #catie.rambling.txt

[yousaytomato]

Okay, I got back from Everything Everywhere All At Once, I have some thoughts:

1. I demand more movies about figuring things out as an adult please. I am only in my mid 20s and I've already reached my lifetime "children have to save the world" movie quota, and I can only imagine it gets worse from this point forward.

I need to know that I can continue to change, that there will still be opportunities as I get older. Michelle Yeoh can, and should, play every upcoming role designed for whichever is the current <20 year old heartthrob.

2. Holy Shit this was a difficult movie for someone who has a rough relationship with their mother, especially when they fought yesterday...I know she would hate this movie, and that she wouldn't want to understand it either.

3. How do I find a person who is just happy doing laundry and taxes with me 😭💔 asking for a friend because I'm lonely

#everything everywhere all at once #tough one for lonely people with mummy issues. is what im saying. #seeing my friend was nice though :3 #some parts were very cornetto-trilogy-y ! and it also made me want to rewatch hardcore henry #im also watching rick and Morty...man i actually love alternate reality stuff like that #ik its very trendy - the mcu are doing it #but the way this movie did it was incredibly compelling #im happy i say it at the cinema because some of the visuals !! wow !! and the sound too #akdjjala they played that one iasip tune at one point lmao and it took me out of it for a second #but mostly. i couldn't look away. and i wished it would keep going #which is unusual for me because i find it difficult to concentrate a lot of the time #i need to watch a video essay or read some stuff about it lol #there was SO much happening #literally everything everywhere all at once... #ohhh man. i want to find someone else talking about the yonic imagery too because there was A Lot. #woes of emily #eeaao

getting told you write a character well by someone who has liked that character for a while and has read hundreds of fics of them is like a blessing HELP ME

#auburn's rambles <3 #i am very particular abt my characterization #im always just praying i dont mess something up #ESPECIALLY W CHARAS LIKE EPEL AND IDIA #THEYRE SO HARD TO WRITE FOR ME #I CANT HELP BUT GIVE IDIA PATHETIC ENERGY EVEN THOUGH HES ALL BOSS MAN IN BOOK SIX #I DONT KNOW MAN #epel's difficult for an entirely different reason he just doesnt click #AND LEONA #MAN #he's not as difficult to write as them but i worry abt his characterization a lot #theres a lot of leona likers #and i want to make sure i get it right for them

[gooperts-gunk]

one beach day during purgatory could fix all the team vs team vs team trust issues but that'd be too good for them the eyeball does not want that and that hurts me </3

#goopert talks qsmp #/neg in tags #< just a precautionary #it's only been 3 days and i find that i'd prefer election arc 2 #i liked the miscommunication of the elections because everyone agreed on one thing #which is “fuck the feds let's take back the power” they just had to choose who should have it #but the miscommunication of purgatory isn't FUN it makes me want to bash my head into a wall #YOU PUT MY TRAUMATIZED BABYGIRLS INTO WAR!!!!! I MISS ROLEPLAY ISLAND #i can barely tell apart cc! from q! anymore this is difficult man #if they weren't fighting each other in teams i'd love this event but that'd ruin the point i guess #grin and bear it goopert grin and bear it #I WANT THEM TO ALL BE FRIENDS AGAINNNN I HATE THESE MIND GAMES (*note: i am autistic of course i hate it) #i want my q!bbh lore crumbs back HIS LORE IS ALWAYS PUT ON THE SIDELINES!!! IM SAD CHATTERS

guys it turns out that when youre reading for yourself and not school it actually kind of rules

#who was gonna tell me #WHO WAS GOING TO TELL ME. i spent YEARS thinking ''oh im not a reader. i used to be but i've declined so much :(( i let myself be a victim #to the t1kt0k attention span :(( the boomer were right'' and it just turns out i was 1) being forced to read and 2) i was being forced to #read books with difficult prose or books i just flat out didnt like. #i finished a 450 page book in 3 days which i know might not be super impressive but to me with dyslex1a and @dhd it IS OK!!!!!!! #and it was because i was reading something i ENJOYED. and reading it for MYSELF. #like man. school really does kill the little reader in your soul huh

Girl chill, he has to differ from the mass.

#my choices are always good so chill #to pique my interest its difficult #he has to be unique #like the man who deciphered Linear B in Greece #otherwise meh #circe #honestly I want to succeed no need to waste my time at this point #im focused to more serious things #if he approaches and he is واحد في المليون like I am #then yes #until then these conversations need to stop #I know what's good for me better than anyone else #<3

thinking about skysolo again. and skybridger. and skydalorian. and all of them. at once? perhaps. perhaps not. they all exist in my mind and are good.

forgot to mention skylighter. love them love them they make me sob in agony.

#thinking about the galaxy's biggest heartbreaker since obi-wan 'the negotiator' kenobi #oh yeah the only reason i only post dinluke is because a) i cant figure out how to draw han banthakriffin solo #why is he so difficult to draw. #whore. #and b) i really need to rewatch rebels but i havent. got access to it. #and i dont want to mess up ezra <3 #im ok with fuckin up han because well. #its han. #my babygirl mr tiddy man han solo #also. han/din/luke is so good. the dynamics r so interesting. #now. i love hanleia as much as the next person. however. i just think that- #im sorry but DID YOU SEE ANH ???????? DID YOU SEE LUKES STUPID LITTLE GARBAGE DISPOSAL HAIR FLIP ??? #sigh. you know they wouldve done smth in that cargo hold. #thats all i leave you with. #lukka's datapad

in honor of yesterday being d(wam) update day — heres a few headshots i’ve been sketchin up!

starting off with the main boys.

random thoughts i had while drawing them below the cut

wallys hair is always messed up by the wind OR he has cowl head so…he has stoped trying to control it, but tbh that gives it a very cute almost intentionally disheveled look

this is dicks “natural, bare faced, low effort, no makeup makeup look”… but between his hair and his face he’s probably using anywhere between 40 & 60 products

Roy is a vape lord... im sorry you can fight me on this. He would smoke cigarettes but he doesn’t like the grime of it. Plus he likes that with vaping he can get more nicotine with less puffs. He does occasionally smoke ciagars with Ollie tho.

also i think he has his tongue pierced bc its hot

#dancing (with another man) #d(wam) #wik(ywm) #dick grayson #wally west #roy harper #dc fan art #𓆟 #scribble fish #fishfic #i have a bunch more headshots done im just going to save them till they are relavent <3 #also i think i am Finally Happy with how i draw dick #figuring out how i wanted his face to look was difficult #but i think this design shows the dick i see in my head

onestar and pmd2 chatot have a similar fanon energy to them

#post thats like theyre both on the antagonistic side but their negative impact is wayyyyyyy overblown #im playing a pmd romhack rn and im like. man its a good hack i really mean that im having fun with it its got tropes i like #but i cant fully enjoy it bc holy shit it will NOT shut up about chatot being the worst man alive for more than 3 scenes at a time #like we get it!!! you hated the apple woods part!!!! i get it can we PLEASE move on!!! #its not even that i care abt chatot all that much its just genuinely dragging down the mood for me. ‘ #‘’hey you enjoying yourself? are you enjoying yourself as much as i hate chatot?? did you know that i hate him? did you know he sucks?’’ #like its to the point that i feel theres more spite than love on the project and its making it difficult to fully enjoy #ok this turned into more of a pmd post uh. follow my main for more pmd hits ig #chatot may as well be a female wc character for how fanon just makes up things to hate abt him. there does that connect it more
