But the racism doesn’t exist right guys?

But the white fang is unjustified right guys?

But the schnee family is completely innocent right guys?

But the faunus have to be the bigger people right guys?

…Why brand an eye and compromise the utility of the slave when there’s a forehead right there? Is he supposed to be a Dark Zuko or something?

…Why are his eyebrows brown instead of red?

…Why make it obvious they were ~*inspired*~ by Grimmjow’s design by giving him that eye color?

…Why do this crap so late in the story, and thus make Blake look even worse, running away from the WF, and then teaming up with a Schnee against them?

so. let’s do this.

About a year ago, I had to read a book for my school’s summer reading assignment called How to Read Literature Like a Professor by Thomas Foster. It’s not a bad book, pretty decent actually, but there was this one chapter about sex scenes in literature. And one of the first sentences was along the lines of “writing sex is boring.”

and I did a double-take. Bc in my experience, that is absolutely not the case, and if you do find yourself bored while writing smut, then you’re not doing it right. See, Thomas’s main argument was that there’s only so many ways you can write sex scenes, because there’s only so many sex acts you can choose from. (My boy Thomas is clearly a vanilla dude, but let’s not hold that against him.) 

But one of the most important things to keep in mind while writing smut is that it’s not necessarily just about the act itself. So while Thomas is right that there are limits as to how many ways ppl can have sex, he failed to realize that writing sex is about a LOT more than that. And I’m gonna prove it to you.
