In lieu of the new tumblr settings, can I make yet another plea with those of you who read fics and consume art on tumblr to please reblog them?
Fics and art will die on a creator’s dash if they aren’t reblogged. It’s never been more true than now.
If you want to keep receiving content from creators, reblog the the content. If it’s something you enjoyed? Reblog it. It’s not hard. I am going to make a point to reblog everything I read from now on. (With the proper tags of course), as well as all the art that I see on my dash.
I cannot make it simpler. Posts WILL die unless they’re reblogged. No one will see your ‘like’. Your like is a bookmark for YOU to find it later. Your reblog means the world to a creator because it means you are willing to go the little extra distance and recommend this to your followers.
Don’t let creations die on the dash of those who created them.
Reblog to save a creation.
Reblog to keep a creator creating.
Reblog, please.

Hi, Mattie… There’s something I want to ask you.
Matt looked up from the thing he had been working on.
“ sure techie you can ask me anything. You know that.”Magic. This is magic. It must be.
Techie’s heart is beating so loud in his ears that he hardly hears himself stammer, “R-Really? So, wh-what does this m-mean? What… do we do?” Unspoken was this: Are we in a relationship now?
If they were, he was going to keep kissing Matt for the rest of his life. Every morning, every night, any time.
Matt looked down slightly at the redhead who stood in front of him. He wasn’t sure what this meant. It meant that they both had feelings for each other but did it mean that techie wanted what he wanted. This wasn’t going o be an easy road forward for either of them he could tell. Reaching forward he grasped techies had lightly. His own hand felt cold to him maybe a little sweaty but he still held on to techies had. If the techie didn’t like it he could pull away himself.
“ I-If you wouldn’t…wouldn’t be against it I’d like this to mean that we’re…you know…together…I-I’d really like that but…but that completely up to you I’d understand if you didn’t want to…be together.”
Matt stammered our the words as his eyes fell to what little space was between them.
“Yes! I- I do! Want to be y-your… boyfriend,” Techie squeaks, cheeks inflamed. He gives Matt’s big hand a squeeze and brings it up to his lips, ghosting them over his knuckles in a princely kiss. They must look weird standing out in a hallway like this; blushing and tongue-tied, eyes wide. Techie finds he doesn’t care as long as Matt keeps making his heart do that addictive little flutter.
The Measure of Man – Chapter 7 by @courgette96
After demonstrating his brilliance in the latest Military campaign, Major Armitage Hux of the Hussars ought to have been rewarded by the respect and admiration of England’s Upper Crust. Instead, he finds that blood and heritage are still the sole currency of value, and that his merit is worth very little in the face of the mediocre House his father has saddled him with.
However, when he finds himself implicated in a covert plot to restore England to the past glory of its Imperialistic days, he sees the opportunity to satisfy his ambition and achieve the greatness he deserves. To reach the top of society, it is far easier to bring it down first.
It would have been a straightforward plan, were it not for the intervention of one Lord Kylo Ren. All too soon, Hux finds himself swept away by an impossible man, the rise of appetites and affections he has long tried to bury within himself, and the discovery of a power that goes beyond what mere science might explain.
This is our @kyluxbigbang fic and I am so excited to share this chapter with you! @courgette96 did any amazing job and it was absolutely one of my very favourite scenes to illustrate and I hope you all enjoy it too!
Scene from the first chapter of my fic Forced Perspective. Amazing art done by the incredibly talented @first-disorder
“Did you ask your Master for this fracking humiliation? Did you want him to enslave me, to hand me over like a kriffing toy?”
“Hux, no! I would never…” Horrified that Hux could think
such a thing, Kylo tries to push him away, but he’s slammed back before
he can get more than a few inches between them. “I had no idea my
Master was going to do
anything
like that until you stepped out of the shadows. But I couldn’t
exactly say I didn’t want you, not if I didn’t want you handed to
someone else.”“Then prove it,” Hux snaps back.
“How?”
“Take these chains off me. Kneel, and show me you’ll still be my good boy.” Hux almost purrs the last words, making Kylo weak in the
knees. They hadn’t played at power dynamics much in bed, but every time
he let Hux dominate him – oh, it was so good. Before he gives his hands permission, they’re fumbling at the
cuffs around Hux’s wrists, searching for some kind of locking
mechanism. He almost panics when he can’t find one. Surely Snoke
didn’t mean for Hux to be stuck like this forever?Hux snorts, reading the fear in Kylo’s face. “They’re Force
activated. He wanted to make sure only you or your merry little band of
misfits could free me.”When he probes at them with the Force, Kylo can feel the locking
mechanisms perfectly. They’re almost ordinary locks, if you ignore the
lack of keyhole. But when he manipulates the Force to open them, he
can feel a warning in the back of his mind. “If you take these off, Snoke will know.” Instead of reaching for the locks of the cuffs themselves,
Kylo unlatches the mechanism that holds the cuffs together. A similar
manipulation, and the chains are falling away from ankle shackles and
collar as well.“If you want me to kneel,” Kylo says, before Hux can protest the selective removal, “you’ll have to step back a bit.”
Full lips turn down at one corner in displeasure, but Hux
relents. A few steps away and Kylo sinks to his knees. No longer so
rigidly controlled, he can feel a wash of Hux’s pleasure at the sight.
More than that, he can see Hux’s blown pupils, barely a ring of vivid
green around the black.
