"Bed. <I>Now</i>." and Other Nonsense

[(Anonymous)]

Which are some of your favorite or least favorite "come hither" phrases you've found in fic or other types of media? Which ones give you heaps of second hand embarrassment? What was the delivery/context that made something work (when it otherwise wouldn't?)

Bonus points if you've ever used any of them in real life!!

I've (to my embarrassment) have used the "old enough" phrase when I was, in fact, very much not old enough and trying to act grown lmao. 13 year old me really thought I was cute lol

Re: "Bed. <I>Now</i>." and Other Nonsense

"Bed. Now." works in the context of a dominant giving an order to a submissive pretty easily. As in, used as one of many given orders.

What's the old enough phrase?

Re: "Bed. <I>Now</i>." and Other Nonsense

Honestly my absolute favorite is when the characters don't have to say any words at all. Maybe they are both just too horny to speak, or maybe they know each other so well they don't have to ask to know. Just, two characters looking at each other and then stripping their clothes off. Nothing is hotter to me.

Another thing would be one character just walking into the room and stripping off their clothes. Again, no words, just saying what they want with their actions. Or a character just getting started on their own, daring the other to join in.

For actual phrases, "bed, now" or "knees, now" works well in the right context. Or ordering other people out of the room.

"Like what you see?" "you can touch it if you want" Or similar kind of phrase where one character is working to seduce/tempt the other. Or when two characters are working to seduce a third.

"I have a present for you" where a character offers themselves as a present.

Characters just bluntly saying what they want.

Anything involving characters being so turned on they are begging.

(askdfljk, oh noooo, I definitely have a WIP where I have one character say this to another character. Whatever, I'm keeping it. I like it.)

Re: "Bed. <I>Now</i>." and Other Nonsense

My preference is minimal talking because it's all just too urgent. And when there is talking, it's begging. Or praising, praising is good--particularly if the other character has a praise kink. Or if the character is trying to talk but can't get more than a couple of words out to save their life because the sensations are making them nonverbal.

What was the delivery/context that made something work (when it otherwise wouldn't?)

I've always HATED "Sir" in BDSM scenes. I just can't stand it. I'm also not a huge fan of formalized BDSM in general, which is definitely part of the issue for me. But even when the BDSM scene is working for me, I've still always hated "Sir."

Then I got into Starker, and Peter calling Tony "Sir" is a thing I find ridiculously hot. Not in a BDSM context though, just in the context of it being an honorific Peter sometimes used in the years before they were together, so then once they become intimate it sometimes just slips out, still, except now there's a kind of lowkey D/s quality to it that turns them both on.

Vents and Gripes: The Thread

[(Anonymous)]

Got a gripe? Need to vent about something? Post it here!

Re: Vents and Gripes: The Thread

[philstar22]

Reader's Digest sent me another copy of October's issue instead of November's issue. NOt a major gripe, but a little annoyed about this. I was looking forward to reading the magazine in a bath only to realize it was one I'd already read.

Also, our neighbor's son is loud. He drives a motorcycle and is always revving the engine at early and late hours. And he plays music too. He's really obnoxious.

I hate morning sickness. Everything smells or tastes awful. No food is eatable.

So at beginning of the year I took over the logistics role at my job with no previous experience. And the person who taught me was dogshit at their job (and I had like 2 weeks to learn everything).

Reddit has helped me with a ton of questions but it is so frustrating getting no help from my job (since no one else has an logistics experience). I asked about a certain program today and the guy who knows about it was just so useless. And like...do I go back to my boss and tell him the guy didn't help at all? But the guy is higher in the company than my boss so...idk.

One of my bunnies needed emergency dental surgery today. (And still isn't eating again - though she handled the anesthesia well, which is a relief because she is a tiny 2-pound thing.)

Naturally this was the day a ton of my coworkers took off, so I was the only person in the web dev department (WFH thank goodness), AND the only vet appointment available today was at the same time that I had previously arranged to pick up my groceries using curbside. AND it was a sunny day and I still have a migraine.

Everything has just been nonstop and I want to just roll over and fall asleep, but I finally got to have some coffee to deal with the migraine and exhaustion around 3pm (since I couldn't swallow anything before driving/talking and expect it to stay down) and it's finally kicking in. -_-

Yesterday a friend called me twice to bitch about how much her job sucks, and since she refuses to even try to get another job I've heard it all multiple times. I was pretty much just going yeah that sucks, wow that's crazy, damn how awful, etc. etc. etc., and not once did she ask me how I was doing (and I'm having a shit time here lately too). Then she mentions that she doesn't have Uber money to get home because she spent it on lunch (she doesn't drive and we live in a place where you need to drive or be patient with the less-than-ideal public transportation), so I suggested she pack a lunch. She said yeah but the taco truck is better than a pop tart. Like wtf, make a sandwich or a salad??? It felt like she was subtly asking for a ride but I didn't offer because damn she can take the bus. So today she texted me asking for Uber money. Said that two people stood her up for rides. Again, no hey how are you or anything. I ignored the messages. And I'm pissed with her tbh. She knew yesterday she didn't have money and she waited until this afternoon to try and hit me up, like damn figure this shit out, you're a grown-ass adult already. Grr.

I broke a tooth just over a week ago and then late last week my water bill was $820, $500 more than it's even been, and I can't find a leak anywhere. I contacted the water department and haven't heard back, and I'm stressed out because property taxes are due soon and I feel super poor.

(context: this is all online)
May I ask for some advice? I confessed to someone I have strong feelings for almost a year ago. Since then we've been through a series of mis-adventures and now he says he's okay with talking to me. He's opened up a bit here and there and seems fine chatting once in a while. I send him funny pictures and he laughs, etc.

I've noticed a few months ago there was another woman who is already in a relationship that started flirting with him and baiting him. He fell for her. I could tell because he would throw suggestive innuendo at her and make a point to follow through with jokes and compliment her all the time. He's really uptight and never says things like this in general. She drops here and there that she has a boyfriend (who is not in the same server) and has started to back down a bit, but he still flirts with her. She continues to bait him and he falls for it every time.

I tried to warn him in indirect ways, but he didn't seem to take the hint. It almost feels like I'm in competition for his attention with someone who is already taken(?). Something about the whole situation doesn't sit well with me. What do you think I should do? So far I've tried to resist the temptation to be critical or blaming. I don't want to be seen as negative. But it does bother me a lot, both on her part and his. I don't want to ruin a potential friendship with him, because he's told me things he hasn't told anyone else now. What do you think my options are?

I am so fucking tired of being told what fandom preferences I have to have, who I have to think is sexy, and which characters I have a moral obligation to like.

Re: Vents and Gripes: The Thread

[(Anonymous)]

Man, sometimes I wish these 2D men were real.


I'd like to be more active in fandom.and even post fic, communicate and do round robins, but I don't have it in me ATM, I don't want to post fic I'm never gonna finish and kinda make for just me to enjoy but statically i know at least 2 other people must enjoy it as well. AND where does one find challenges on A03?round robins?

Oh I hate my neighbourhood and how fucking LONG it takes to fix stuff.

Can I please find consistently affordable and reasonably safe housing where I don't have to share space with 50,000 other tenants who don't pay rent?

Wish I could build my own house where I'm not bothered by shitty neighbors or too awful events. I'm aware shit happens and that this is close to if not a pipe dream now.

It wouldn't help if I could get my financial problems taken care of too...

A tumblr user occasionally reblogs fan art I like but also a lot about a band I don't follow. But now she's reblogged her third anti-adjacent post and I'm done. "There's a difference between writing dark stuff to cope and writing dark stuff to enjoy it." IDK hun seems like neither is your business. Pretty similar really.

The roommate I occasionally vent and gripe about was gone for a week and left their window open. Yes when they left we were having highs in the 70s lows in the 50s but jesus tapdancing christ it's November we have 9 hours of sunlight and a high in the 30s today. I thought the seals around the windows in my room were failing. I was planning on getting those plastic sheets to tape around all the windows in the house. I should have just assumed the roommate was the problem and checked that room like they are a kid. FUCK. Luckily there wasn't any water damage and now that it's been brought to their attention that it's not a cool thing to do they probably won't do it again.

This person is 8 years older than me and has a whole extra level of education I cannot understand why they can't adult to even my minimal standards.

Where do Japanese fans post fanfic?

What ship's canon stuff disappointed you when you started a media?

[(Anonymous)]

Like, you heard a lot about a ship (maybe including "it's so obvious" or "they're so in love!") before starting something, but when you finally started, you were disappointed/confused/didn't get it.

Sorry about the title. I couldn't fit the full question in there.
