tension blooms like a rose,your smartness will kill you mister compton. but he can’t stop thinking about the bare idea of having russell under his foot , squeezed in like a bug to cold concrete - it makes him hard for one ) not giving a certain viking the satisfaction of edgington in his own hand &two ) how easy it is , compton manipulates , but he does not lie when he promises the mississippi king daywalking.
COMPTON’S NO PUPPY - DOG! it’s treason thee commits , you’re going against a seven nation army ( & and it can’t hold you back ) . he can already feel nan’s blood boiling , william had a cold nerve type of nature about him : he’ll happily greet you with a handy right hand , but he holds a rock in his left.he sighs , understands the other’s frustration, but precautions must be taken ❝ ten thousand . . .&i will consult you on tribunal decisions .do we have an agreement on other terms as well ?❞
❛ –––––– fine . ❜ tongue swift tosettle, blade quick in its cut . a vampiric no take - backs. agreeing before mister compton has a chance to change his mind , even if the remnants of flared anger still come off small frame in smoke; ten thousand petty cash in exchange for such a prize( 𝐄𝐑 𝐖𝐈𝐑𝐃 𝐃𝐈𝐄 𝐒𝐎𝐍𝐍𝐄 𝐇𝐀𝐁𝐄𝐍 ! ) . how easily swayed the king presents himself , desire & whimsy prevailing over ruling head .
negotiation brokered , up from the sofa & before fiancé–––––– amusement long since gone , ghost of smile replaced with spite . though crown is forced to tilt upwards to meet piercing eyes , power is not given up so easily . every move teasing anticipation , stoking tensions ‘twixt two like the fire that roars behind them . ❛ you have yourself a deal , your majesty . ❜ even supposed respect is drawled with venom;he is no king . gaze held for drawn out span of nonexistent breath , before , in a beat , rigidity releases itself from body & relative calm returns to edgington . ❛ . . . you’ll stay here for the time being . a second guest room can be made up for your progeny, should you wish for her to join you . ❜ make no mistake –––––– this is no proposition . it is a demand that he will not be shaken from!
HAS HE NOT RIPPED OUT HER SPINE ( she’s his enemy’s loved one, after all ) because of steve or because she gave him the ability to walk in the sun with new blood? if only he knew there was a way to be rendered immune to the sun for good, like her… but that is not something she'll let slip easily. regardless, she’s grateful to be alive… or undead! a beam slips onto her features, bright for typically gloomy vampire-kind. ‘ it was my favourite moment on television. i really did laugh. i got some dodgy looks for that… ’
make no mistake –––––– it is a carefully crafted tolerance , mostly for steve’s sake rather than his own . but this , appealing to ego , stoking thinly veiled narcissism ? smart girl . narrowed eyes & thin smile , edgington only semi - wary of flattery . ❛ yes , well –––––– ❜ ( talbot reminds him , scoldingly , of rashness & irresponsibility , & instinct to chide back has to be swallowed )❛ –––––– i’m afraid it hasn’t made me very popularamong the masses . ❜ as if he truly cares , further prod only disguised as such . it does make going out in public a challenge , however .
as much as it pains her to even think it,he’s right. vampires are much more patient than mere humans could be, just waiting in the shadows with seemingly all the time they could ever hope. she forces herself to swallow, tongue feels as if its welled up inside of her mouth and she’s unable to speak, to even make a noise. ❛what do you want from me? that’s all you do - y’take and take until there’s nothin’ left. ❜ she still hasn’t stepped away from the door, her nails are instinctivelydigginginto the wood.
cruelty behind smile , bloodlust hidden behind teeth ––––––– oh , isn’t it obvious ? hunger pains : an ache for so much more than faerie.the sun beckons. shrouded in darkness for millennium leaving a glacier of a hole in dead heart . ❛ not true . you’re still alive, aren’t you ? ❜ face - to - face now , little room left for comfort . toeing the threshold of which he cannot pass . ❛ invite me in , miss stackhouse . i’ll be gentle ––––––– scout’s honor . ❜
How to uplift & love lesbians in the rpc (& hopefully always??) even if you yourself are not a lesbian:
listen to lesbians?? esp trans lesbians and/or lesbians of color. we’re not a hive mind and we’re gonna vary depending on the person lmao.
if a character you’re playing is revealed to be a lesbian then it’s time to hang up the ships you have with men (because no, you can’t be a lesbian and date men, that’s Kinda A Thing), change your muse’s bio and rules, and move the fuck on. maybe make a psa post if you’re feeling sparky.
this isn’t the time to make “””””aus””””” where your lesbian muse is bi, dig your heels into the ground, or go “canon divergent” or w/e just so u can continue to ship them w/ men. That’s overtly shitty.
if you see friends doing this shit, you need to tell them to curb that shit. It’s not the time to be like “Well it’s their RIGHT to—” NAH DUDE, it’s erasure. period.
This is related to the first one, but also UNLEARN LESBOPHOBIA.
If someone says you’ve done something lesbophobic take a step back, evaluate, and then be better going forward. Dont play the keyboard bongos whilst insisting that you’re really in the right or guilt-trip the person telling you (ei: “im sorry i’m a horrible person and should die”)
Actively support lesbians. Trans lesbians and Lesbians of color. Older lesbians and baby lesbians who are just figuring themselves out. Lift their voices and make them feel loved and valued!! It’s easy and free!!!
Take an interest in lesbian muses! Again. Especially lesbian muses of color and trans lesbian muses. They need love! A lot of times people kinda. lose interest in muses that they don’t think are as “shippable”.
👏
f/f 👏 ships 👏 are
👏 good
👏 ships!
👏
feel free to add.
ALSO FUCKING LEARN THAT COMP-HET IS A THING. A bunch of lesbians have dated men in the past before they realized who they were. They may have dated men to actively suppress that part of themselves. If a character who is later confirmed to be a lesbian has had relationships with men that doesn’t invalidate her sexuality. Thank you.
