A Passionate Shiver Expectant: A Tale of the Snow Queen

Written by spaceisgay (ChancellorGriffin) & illustrated by @blindswandive An original fiction story inspired by The Snow Queen

Henrik and Zora have been best friends since birth, and now their parents expect them to marry; though with no real understanding of what it entails (respectable people do not talk of such things), they can't say they're particularly excited by the thought. But when the dangerously alluring Snow Queen whirls into town one cold winter night and ensnares the naive, bookish Henrik, both their lives change forever. Kept as her new favorite pet in her glittering ice palace at the very top of the world, Henrik finds life at the Snow Queen's court unexpectedly . . . educational.

Meanwhile Zora sets out on a perilous quest to find him, aided along the way by all sorts of colorful characters who can't resist her wide-eyed innocence, and finds herself learning many interesting lessons of a similar kind. But can she battle her way through sinister forests, towering mountains and frigid wastes to save Henrik before the Snow Queen's icy kisses stop his heart forever? And even if she does, will they find their horizons have been expanded too far by their journeys to fit back into the confines of the village they left behind?

AI companies are acquiring content across the internet for a variety of purposes in all sorts of ways. There are currently very few regulations giving individuals control over how their content is used by AI platforms. Proposed regulations around the world, like the European Union’s AI Act, would give individuals more control over whether and how their content is utilized by this emerging technology. We support this right regardless of geographic location, so we’re releasing a toggle to opt out of sharing content from your public blogs with third parties, including AI platforms that use this content for model training. We’re also working with partners to ensure you have as much control as possible regarding what content is used.

Here are the important details:

We already discourage AI crawlers from gathering content from Tumblr and will continue to do so, save for those with which we partner. 

We want to represent all of you on Tumblr and ensure that protections are in place for how your content is used. We are committed to making sure our partners respect those decisions.

To opt out of sharing your public blogs’ content with third parties, visit each of your public blogs’ blog settings via the web interface and toggle on the “Prevent third-party sharing” option. 

For instructions on how to opt out using the latest version of the app, please visit this Help Center doc. 

Please note: If you’ve already chosen to discourage search crawling of your blog in your settings, we’ve automatically enabled the “Prevent third-party sharing” option.

In the post, you talk about AI crawlers like if it was something you are defending your users against. A external actor that may get to tumblr public posts and use them for nefarious purposes.

What you don't talk about is about AUTOMATTIC SELLING THAT DATA TO THE COMPANIES THAT USE THOSE CRAWLERS, SO THEY DON'T EVEN NEED TO SCRAPE THE PUBLIC TUMBLR BLOGS.

Why are you even talking about crawlers when it has just been published that you are actively and proactively sending the data straight to their servers?

Author's note:

Whew! This story was months n the making! Even though I got it done back in... October, I believe, I have not been able to post it until today. I entered into the SPNProShipBang and this is my entry for that bang! I hope ya'll like it. It's not too terribly different from what I've written here before, but whatever. I like what I like and I'll write what I like.

I hope many of you can also get some enjoyment out of it as well.

A BIG THANK YOU TO @blindswandive FOR THE TWO PIECES OF ART SHE CREATED FOR MY FIC. Her art can be found here. They are EXCELLENT. I implore you all to go check her out over on Tumblr!

Once again all mistakes are my own.

Enjoy.

Summary:

The Winchester Boys have never had any easy life, their upbringing being supervised by a man hell-bent on vengeance for his murdered wife, and have largely been left to their own devices. If Dean's behavior, as the only Alpha his Omega brother, Sam, has had to turn to for love and affection, has become something with sharp teeth and long claws, well... It mattered not to him. Sam had always been his to love, cherish, and protect, and Dean would do anything within his power to ensure that he was the only one that Sam looked at as if he hung the moon.

There was no other bonds, familial or otherwise, that mattered as much to the two young Winchester boys as the relationships they had with each other.

If Dean had to fight to keep all of Sam's affection to himself he would do it. Even if it meant going after the one Alpha that they should have looked up to, their father, John Winchester.

There would never be a price Dean would not be willing to pay to keep his darling Sammy forever by his side.

Title: The Salt-Filled Skins of Ptolemaea Author: Maven Morozov Artist: BlindSwandive Other Pairing: minor Sam/Azazel Rating: Explicit Warnings/Spoilers: Underage, Sam Winchester on Demon Blood, Blood Kink, Trans!Sam, some queerphobia & consensual misgendering, Gore, Cannibalism, Murder, discussions of periods & pregnancy, Dark!Wincest

Summary: Sam has always felt like a freak in his body. As long as he can remember, his life has revolved around his brother–but as he begins to transition from a child to a teenager, he’s forced into a reckoning of his feelings for Dean, and a strange angel appearing in his dreams that calls itself Azazel.

Here’s my art fill for this year’s SPN Masquerade! 🥹 The prompt was simply “mouth stitches”, so… Hush, Sam.
