Hello dear Anon. Sorry it took me a bit to get to this but this ask came just before a tough week started. Do I sound like I have solid opinions? I mean, I do have a lot of them and I love sharing them, and tag games are great for me to just scream about stuff that I've thought way too much about. So pining and kissing. Long term pining is a favourite of mine, although long term in bl can get pretty long with some boys pining since childhood. Also that first kiss is often so loaded with emotions that I'm usually internally screaming the whole time. Honestly sometimes most of the time there's a lot of external screaming as well. Also, for me personally, a great kiss scene is way more than the touching of the lips, it's the build up, the tension around it, does it feel in tune with the chars and the moment, several things can turn a fine kissing scene into a great one. Ok, enough rambling and let's get down to that list.

Jack and Joker

Since it was mentioned in the ask I felt it best to start here. This scene is so good. There's an inevitability feeling in the air, like this is it, no way it's not happening now. Also, I mean, why is spin the bottle in my bl if no one is gonna kiss? The whole scene was perfection. Jack 'daring' Joke to be his boyfriend, Joke pushing the bottle aside and getting close, answering yes and just completely giving in to his feelings. All this with Dome's song. It's such a good kissing scene. And of course Yin and War kill at this type os scene.

Bad Buddy

This one is mandatory. I mean what can I even say at this point? We can't talk about pining and first kisses and not mention them. Incredible work by everyone involved. No shortage of people talking about this kiss much more eloquently so I'll leave it at that.

My Only 12%

Long term pining you said? Well, can't go longer than this actually. I think Seeiw fell in love when he first shared a crib with Cake. Cake's whole speech in this scene was amazing and I couldn't believe that they hadn't properly kissed yet at this point. But imo it made sense and I do think that with their history it was important that Seeiw felt loved and wanted by Cake. That it wasn't because he was confused, or they were already close and hugged each other to sleep since they were kids. It was something else.

We Best Love

Crying kisses my beloved. Another one that puts the long in long term pining. Gao Shi De my beautiful pining boy had his eyes on Shu Yi since childhood. Everything about this scene is perfection. A shouting confession on a bridge, a second first kiss cause Shu Yi is right, that first one doesn't count, and both of them crying with the most amazing song in the background. Just rewatching that scene alone makes me feel all the feelings.

Our Dating Sim

Finally they stop running! Ok, to be fair only one of them was actually trying to stay away but still. After 7 years of not speaking and mutual pining and soon after one of the best lines in bl (Have you been well? Without me?😢) they finally kiss! I love Gi Tae honesty in the present time. Boy was not gonna let history repeat itself so he says what he feels. But also using alcohol as an excuse when it truly wasn't.

Old Fashion Cupcake

Honestly I'm not sure how long it was but since Togawa was smitten from the interview day I'm just gonna say he was pining for a long while. Regardless this one shot sequence is incredible so I think it belongs here. Togawa just can't take it anymore and completely loses control and the way it's shot and acted you can feel that, and you can feel the tension and the break that follows. They are extraordinary in this scene.

Cherry Magic Thailand

I know Achi is the one who gets the magic powers but I think the universe rewrote its own rules and made it so Achi would find out just how hard Karan was crushing on him. And it caught Jinta by proximity. For 7 years this loser (very affectionate) was thinking about his crush 24/7 not even hoping for a kiss. Just proximity was a lot for him to handle at first. Anyway, after the many hurdles they finally kiss and it's gorgeous. I love that Achi is the one who initiates it cause he's grown braver. AAAAAAHHHHH I just love them so much.

Reset

Speaking of simps and the universe rewriting its rules. Man so in love he turned back time. This kiss was ridiculously good. The chemistry with them was always on point and when they finally kiss it doesn't disappoint. It was also so perfect for them and the moment, no notes.

Love Class 2 - Maru & Min Woo

Another besties to lovers cause honestly no trope goes harder with pining. Min Woo had been pining for years as well and they drove me crazy. But that so often happens to me with pining besties when one is so obviously in love and the other is the only one who can't see what's right in front of his face. I just end up screaming, JUST SAY IT! or HOW CAN YOU NOT SEE IT? But it's delicious and probably the reason I love my pining boys. So when Maru finally realises that all the clues were there since forever they finally kiss and it's a glorious kiss.

If you know me or my work, you know that I'm a Samgirl to the end. All of these are fem!reader/Sam unless otherwise stated 🩵

LET'S PLAY -Which fic of mine should you read if you...

...want to feel seen? (and also if you wanted S8 to be more interesting)

Penumbra, the newest fic I've been working on is turning into my greatest slow burn yet! Inspired by my own personal journey with being perceived by others, this story is about a woman who's been invisible to everyone she's come across for several years, unable to touch anything unless no one is looking at it. While she snoops on a crime scene she runs into a stranger who can finally perceive her: Sam, sick off the first two Trials to close the gates of Hell.

I remember the exact moment I realized other people could see me but I would never see myself outside of my own body. I didn't realize at that age (I think I was like 8 or 9) that this was really me realizing that other people can look at me and make any judgements they want about me without my say— without me being able to defend myself from that judgement. That's something that's bothered me for a long time (and also inspired my Junior Thesis in college, a series of self portraits in mirrors). Themes explored by reader character: self-actualization, accepting the gap between what others know about us & what we know about ourselves, that being "seen" is truly just to feel known but what does that mean to each of us, and touch coming at the cost of sight— meaning you can only do one or the other at one time. Themes explored by canon characters: what it means to make up for what mistakes you've made, the price of purity, the burden of repression & the weight of forgiveness. This is the fic I'm currently the proudest of 😊

...want to feel trusted? (while horny)

You wanna tie that man down and make him to beg so sweet for you? Undo Me. 'Nuff said.

...want to drive that man insane sexy-style?

COME TO WATER (as in: you can bring a horse to water but you can't make 'em drink). A four part series (maybe someday a fifth part but I haven't thought of what that would be and as it stands it's complete) TLDRs for each part are as follows

Freak of Nature — Sam's internal monologue of self-loathing, him getting turned on by blood on your titties, and him jerkin' it to the thought of you in the adjoining motel room (and getting caught OOPS)

A Bug in Denial — Sam's obsessed with your legs (specifically thighs), you wearing tiny shorts, weaponizing incompetence in order to drive him insane, and dry humping in the Bunker's kitchen (freak behavior)

Exhibiting Freak Behaviors — Sam "I'm in denial" Winchester, you stealing his clothes, flirting with another man in front of him in said clothes, lots of oral.

Who Do You Love — Sam is an idiot (and a liar), you tempt him with lewds until he can't resist any more, love confessions (finally), and gettin' that man in a bed and finishing the damn job!!!

...want to enter into an insane canon rewrite?

For my past self I must include a plug for my original series of Supernatural fanfics which ended up being almost twice as long as LoTR (insane): Antinomic Involutions. It's an extensive canon rewrite (S9-S15) that came to me during quarantine and unironically changed my life. I worked on it during my last two years of college lmao. My central thesis was that the Winchester's codependency is what really kept their characters from advancing in their growth. My solution? Adding more women and queers that don't die to introduce the two of them to new perspectives about family and love. I've been writing stories since before I can remember and I've been posting fanfic since about 12 years old. The only fic I'd ever finished was a four chapter long Supergirl (tv, 2015) story after finally getting diagnosed with and medicated for ADHD. I was 17 at the time. When I began writing Antinomic Involutions at 20, I was not sure I could finish something so ambitious. But I did. It's RIDDLED with spelling errors and typos, and it's all in past-tense but there's still something very valuable about it.

This series of fanfics has become the starting point for the insanely-complex original story I've been creating over the last four years. When I finished the last book in the fanfic series, I was tormented by the idea that my OCs would die in the recesses of AO3, never to be given the full attention they deserve. In particular the OC that falls in love with Sam is super important to me. At this time in my life I was fully 100% convinced no one could find me attractive, let alone Sam Winchester. And you know what? That pissed me off. I came to a simple conclusion: if the whole story is written and manufactured by Chuck, then the reason why all the women on the show are extremely thin and relatively short (compared to me) is because that's his idea of beauty, not necessarily the characters'. With that in mind, I forced myself to make Sadie look exactly like me— with everything I thought was flawed and unlovable about the way I look. Because of this, I had to find new ways to describe myself; I had to change the vocabulary I used to describe being plus-sized in all dimensions. I had to forgive myself for my insecurities instead of hiding from them. Because of this, Sadie changed my life. I don't think of myself as unappealing anymore and in large part I thank the 21 y/o me who decided: I will not be like C*ssandra Cl*re and perpetuate unrealistic expectations of beauty on myself or others. (Unfortunately in middle school I was a big fan of the *ahem* book series of "hers". I never liked the main character because she was always too perfect. When I finally saw the author and how she looked, I wondered at the age of 13, whether I was supposed to always be seeking to be smaller when I would never be that. I was born 23" tall, I'm 5'11" as an adult and over 230 lbs, I was never going to be a petite manic-pixie-dreamgirl. So I chose to reject that way of thinking. I would not be miserable over myself forever, that simply wouldn't do. And I'm all the better for it.) Loving Sadie as she is taught me to love myself.

THANK YOU SM TO SORRY FOR TAGGING ME AND WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH ME WHY AM I SO LONG-WINDED anyways if y'all didn't like it you wouldn't be here I guess lolol

I do know! I actually really enjoy it after seeing @nireey ‘s Pinkshipping fanart and her fanfic! I don’t like it as much as Lavendershipping (duh) or Rosenshipping aka Hackshipping (Kaiba/Siegfried), but that might just be the lack of content so far. I’m open to being swayed! That honestly goes for any ship.

I’m currently exploring Joey + Siegfried in a strictly platonic dynamic over on my Siegfried RP blog, @rosetintedduelist , and there’s definitely some good interactions to be had between these two!

Their ship, however, definitely falls into the “prince and the pauper”/“beauty and the brute” -like tropes. Rosenshipping isn’t like that all, and Lavendershipping only touches on those tropes depending on characterization, so it’s really up to what flavor of Siegfried ship I want to enjoy that day. Spoiler alert, it’s usually Lavendershipping. But Pinkshipping is a nice change of pace!

Absolutely

wait I think we were talking about this at pikes!

*ahem* Greetings, lady. I would like to introduce myself. My name is Masashi, but I am more formally known as Shogun X. I am the commander of the demon army here on this island, and would like to formally introduce myself. You are feared by many, like me, and I would much like to meet a fellow being of power on the island.

@shogun-x-fn

(Rose's shades whispered as they always do, their conversations seemingly only going in a circle as they questioned whom the man was.)

Tall,, he's tall.

Rose's second form is taller!

That's not the point.

What does he want?

He looks similar to-

(Rose seemed to twitch momentarily, the whispering immediately ceased; due to their shades rambling she already knew someone was approaching her dojo.)

(Rose silently stood up from their pillow and wiped off their knees, the katana on her hip remained in the holster; for now.)

Yes,, yes,, a person of power; can I help you with something or do you just wish to-

(Rose paused upon seeing the other's appearance, he seemed to look like her brother; how confusing.. though they didn't seem too surprised hence Jones and Hope practically crashing into their world.)

...You are not from here, yes? It's,, evident you aren't.. you have the resemblance of my brother,, yet I know you aren't him.

The shield slung across @officialjohnjones ' back gave off an irritating hum when the wind hit it just right. There was no way he could hear it, or he'd be going nuts right now, thanks to the gusts on the mountain they were climbing. @ronin-kendo seemed a little jumpy, but that was to be expected. They were heading into Demon's Dojo, after all.]

Eyes out, both of you. Cover all possible field of vision. Her shades won't follow or attack as long as we're looking at them.

[Keeping a couple of shades in her own line of sight, she smirked as she heard Kendo's jumpiness get a little worse. The Commander's demeanor, however, didn't change.

Approaching the central dojo, Charlotte entered first, relieved to find the gold and scarlet Night Rose inside, not the one dangling from strings.]

Night Rose. I'm here again, but this time I've brought friends. This is Commander Jones and the rōnin Kendo. They're the ones who want to help you, if it's possible. I told them everything you told me before.

@slayer-charlotte

[On the group's approach to the Demon's Dojo, the shadows seemed to twist like morning mist twirls lazily along the ground. A single shade broke through their line of sight, but instead of attacking, it jumped playfully at Kendo, exclaiming loudly, as if to say 'BOO!' but not having the proper control over its mouth to make the right sounds. The fading ghost of a giggle tickled the ears of the group like a weak draft of wind, as the shade just as quickly vanished into rose-scented mist.]

[As the slayer entered, The Night Rose stood, dusted off her robes, and gave a quick half-bow to the group as Jones and Kendo stepped into view.]

Hello again, and hello for the first time to you two. I've seen silent warriors with your faces, but they haven't really spoken to me at length... you know, being silent.

One second, as I... throw out my guards...

[With a wave of her hand, what could best be described as purple sludges bolted out of the shadows of the Dojo, skittering out into the world like a pack of rats.]

There. No need for such things among friends, hm?

"you?!" is smth i haven't worked on in a while but it's httyd modern au, fishlout. based on a post i saw a while ago, i think from @rosiethedragongeek & maybe someone else(??) abt fishlegs & snotlout having personas online not realizing its each other (thor bonecrusher & sir uglerthorp, respectively)

there's more i've got written but this is as much as i wanna share rn JDNSKSK (this isn't connected to MY modern au verse but tbh it could be?)

"but have you tried it?" is a silly tuffnut & fishlegs fic!!! the title is extremely straightforward. i wanted them to interact more ;_; fishlegs & tuff barely get any moments together
