On his scarf are two buttons, one with the colors of the Bisexual flag, and one with the colors of the Transgender flag. The background is a light blue, with a variety of white swirls and stars, all appearing glitched due to a glitching filter being used on them.)
babes new thiam headcanon just dropped: liam gets more flustered, nervous and shy when theo is being cute/sweet than when he’s being hot and sexy. like, seductive charming theo??? he can deal with that. carefree theo wearing liam’s jacket and gigglingor some adorable shit like that??? he needs to take a moment to breathe and/or scream
theo knows this and does cute stuff on purpose all the time and will never get tired of teasing him. blushing liam is just too pretty. totally worth embarrassing himself if that means liam’s gonna get all red and nervous
does anyone else ever get this feeling, whenever you go to a body of water, something euphoric just wells up inside of you??? like… the way that sea foam tickles your skin, or how the first cold splash invigorates you?? or how about when you dive down to the bottom, and you look up just to watch the sunlight shimmer through the surface???? OOOHHH or maybe that feeling you get when the wave beneath you begins to recede, and you dig your toes and fingers into the sand while watching the water race past you?? and don’t get me STARTED on aquarium visits—

[Image Description: In the corner of a room made of Glass huddles Cloud Strife. On his ankles and wrists are silver cuffs with a green and red button, locked shut but currently disconnected. He is wearing green scrubs, too short on his legs, too big around his neck. His feet are bare. His eyes are dull and listless, dark circles underneath them, and his cheeks are hollow. He is chewing on his left pointer finger, so hard he’s drawing blood. His reflection is not of himself. The shadow of an older man with completely empty eyes and no expression on his face stares down at him, sitting at his side. The room around him is empty and green. End image description.]
It had been Five No Seven? Six. Days, He thought. Since the— Since—
Breathe through it. Live through it. You have before. You must again.
Shinra hated— Hated paperwork and— No one would— Would report this, so— Six days, and— Soon forever, and—
Cloud stood up in his prison and paced the walls again. Tried to draw in enough breath to stay calm. Tried to stop his mind from repeating, and repeating and—
the transition from people needing each other to wanting each other is literally one of my greatest weaknesses that shit makes me want to walk into the sea and sit on the ocean floor for a thousand years
like. characters whose entire self worth is based on how useful they can be to others, who think that they’re going to be abandoned as soon as they’re no longer necessary, being told by someone that they want them to stay and realizing that they have value to people in and of themselves and not just for what they can do for them will never fail to completely unmake me. like on a molecular level.
I know we all love the out of control, dangerous Pon Farr scenario, where Spock is downright dangerous. But I would love to see in stories where he’s in a stable relationship where Pon Farr is treated between the couple like an intimate experience that can actually be enjoyed as a time of deep closeness not normally allowed in Vulcan society.
So I know when we think of Pon Farr we think of “Amok Time”. But remember: This is Spock’s first Pon Farr and he doesn’t havea good relationship with T’Pring.
I think a better example of a Pon Farr in an established relationship would be Tuvok’s (if we cut out the bit where he tried to stave it off and it wasn’t actually his wife but a hologram). Tuvok doesn’t want anyone on the ship to know, but when he’s actually with his (holographic) wife, it is passionate and romantic.
I truly believe that Pon Farr, between an established couple that trusts and loves one another can be a beautiful time that they well enjoy in the moment and that’s why they don’t speak about it.
I know we love unconscious whumpees. How about nearly unconscious whumpees?
Caretaker is trying to carry Whumpee to safety but Whumpee is kind of delirious and the little consciousness they do have is absolutely fixated on one thing, e.g. the wellbeing of a fellow whumpee. Bonus points if it’s something less consequential, like fretting about the blood they’re getting on Caretaker’s clothing. Extra bonus points if their mumblings show a complete lack of understanding of the situation, such as pleading for Whumper not to hurt them or asking when Caretaker’s getting here.
Whumpee’s eyes are open and Caretaker thinks they’re more alert than they are. It’s only when Caretaker tries to get them to sit up and has to support their limp head and neck that they see their glazed expression.
Whumpee drifting in and out of consciousness without realising it, so what may seem to be a coherent conversation to them is strung out over full minutes or even hours for Caretaker.
Whumpee drifting in and out of consciousness, realising it, and panicking as much as they are mentally capable of doing at that moment. Caretaker has to soothe them and let them know it’s all right, they’re in safe hands and Caretaker won’t let anything happen to them.
Caretaker carrying Whumpee over their shoulder and having to set them down on a bed or a table. Whumpee’s limbs ragdolling as Whumpee mumbles weak apologies.
Whumpee lying in a bed and seemingly unconscious, but Caretaker knows they still have some alertness because they squeeze Caretaker’s hand reallytightly.
Whumpee wishing they could pass out completely because the pain is too much for them.
And two more (reference to noncon drugging and nonsexual noncon touching):
Whumper has drugged Whumpee into a hazy state. When Whumpee gets rescued, they’re terrified Caretaker thinks they’re drunk or deliberately intoxicated.
Creepy Whumper doing something intimate like stroking Whumpee’s hair. Whumpee is either frightened but unable to pull themselves away, or not conscious enough to really be scared or know who’s touching them.
What do you make of this weirdly remodeled warehouse home in the UK?
Serial killer easy-clean stainless steel kitchen.
Heavy duty spiral stairs.
Hmmm…stainless steel fireplace, but medieval castle doors in the living room.
Then, there’s the ship’s hatch. Submarine? Space ship?
Where are we?
Spacy steep steps leading to the home gym.
Music room? Dance studio?
Hang out room.
This looks like a room in a sanitarium.
And, it’s got the bathroom to prove it- even a giant toilet paper roll, but it’s up too high.
Are those sinks or bidets?
Is that a two-way mirror?
What is this room? Are those sleeping nooks?
Interesting sink.
This is just weird.
The wall was sealed- would’ve been nice if they left a door to get out on the deck. Just went back to the site and saw the video tour- who the hell chose that music? I had to shut it off, it sounded like you’re trapped and can’t get out.
I like takes where Druig hasn’t seen Makkari in as long as the others haven’t, and when he asks if she missed him, that was also a subtle way of saying he missed her, I mean wow 7000 years, that has to be something, and they try to brush it under the rug and act normal, mostly because I like the angst potential of them having to eventually talk about it, why did you go?orwhy didn’t you come with me? or Makkari never visiting despite her being able to go anywhere, and staying in one place since he left precisely so he’d be easier to find.
BUT I also like takes where his ‘did you miss me’ was playful and the most they hadn’t seen each other was like a month, but he still had to be so extra about it. They hadn’t seen Makkari for centuries, but that doesn’t mean that Makkari hasn’t seen them. I like the idea that Makkari has been running laps across the globe keeping track of where everyone was which is why she wasn’t worried and just waited for everyone to be done with what they were doing. But she’d never intrude except with Ajak and Druig. Like she more or less regularly visits him, maybe once a year or once a month at his commune, and I like the idea that with his telepathic link, he’d actually been keeping tabs on where everyone else was as well. He had regular contact with Gilgamesh, and noticed when the others arrived at the compound immediately. So he’d track them telepathically, while Makkari would go to them physically using his directions. In other words, they stayed best friends and close all these years.
I like takes where Makkari and Druig have always known but never really bothered to tell anyone. They weren’t really trying to keep it from everyone, they just acted like normal as they always did with each other whether it be 7000 years ago or now, and some of the others were later to notice. Established relationship or secret marriage basically.
BUT I also like takes where Druig eventually realizes that his words of ‘beautiful’ weren’t just teasing and were the real deal that he had to say it twice the next time to be sure, when he realized he missed Makkari more than most or that he’d felt hurt the most when she never bothered to visit him and that meant something. Or despite how cheesy Druig actually is, Makkari remained oblivious all this time and his whole ‘my’and‘beautiful’ thing of his was just their something to keep things light. Or even when they were being teased, again she just takes it as the others joking, or even when she was so broken when she thought he’d died and the utter relief when he made it out was just something normal, nothing special, because of course she’d feel that way, he’sher best friend.
Mostly I like oblivious Makkari to Druig’s obvious feelings, the sap because I want this trope:
Makkari*signs*: ‘Are you flirting with me??’
Druig: I have been, for the past 7000 years, but thanks for noticing.
can someone please explain to me why we queers are not shouting from the rooftops about Vico Ortiz, Latinx nonbinary icon and literal drag king irl who plays Jim in our flag means death? because DAMN
