My name is BAKUNA / BAKUNYA. I'm a 27+ year old pansxual cis-woman and I live in the EST time zone. My discord is available for mutuals to add. My Discord is available for plotting, chatting, as well as roleplay. If you’re interested in any, feel free to say something! I am mutually exclusive, meaning I will only interact with people whom I both follow and am followed by. If you unfollow me, please do me the kindness of soft-blocking me. I may softblock any who I maybe don’t see myself interacting with anymore or have tried to interact with and not received reciprocation from. This is not done maliciously, I simply like to have a clean dash; feel free to refollow if I make a mistake.
Stating the obvious, I’ll write my guy, and you write yours. I’ll have more leniency on this with people who I’ve written with for a while and trust.
I will not interact with blogs that actively feature: rape, homophobia, transphobia, racism, colorism, OR whitewashing. I reserve the right to halt interaction and/or hard block without warning. I ask that you tag TRYPOPHOBIA. I will tag all triggers as “trigger tw //” and if you see that I forgot a tag, please send a polite reminder and I'll adjust! I want to make our dash experience pleasant for all parties.
I am heavily duplicate-friendly !! the more Monica the better.
Mature content will be present on this blog and will also be tagged accordingly. Mun is 29 years old and will only write mature themes with adults who are 20 or older.
This will be a medium-low activity for now. I work and am also a college student, so my free time can vary. My muses often cycle in terms of activity. This is never intentional, muse just fluctuates. I love crossovers, aus, so never be shy to bring any ideas forward.
I am multi-ship and multi-verse. As I am pansexual myself, I write most of my canonically heterosexual ( or ambiguously queer-coded ) muses as queer or equally as pan as I am.
I will tag OOC posts accordingly. I do post OOC quite often, and while I've been cutting back on that, I know that it’s something I'll continue to do. Feel free to blacklist my OOC and Shitposting tags.
I want my mutuals to feel supported, and so if you as a mutual ever feel like your promos don’t get enough attention, your graphics not enough hype, your memes not enough in quantity/quality, let me know and I’ll always be there to throw some love. I do reblog my mutuals’ promos every time I see them no matter how many times I’ve reblogged them in the past so that you get ideal exposure! Especially when I've got quite a bit of followers or i feel like we have different mutuals.

Monica absolutely gives me dommy mommy vibes. like, “you betta be butt-ass-naked and on y’knees by the time I get home” vibes. definitely comes home from girls night like a fiend in the night and ready to give it to you right. but, also, that oddly very sweet, syrupy feeling you get from an older black woman. you know what I'm talking about? no nonsense, come correct or don't come at all, and you should be expected to be absolutely praised and coo’d at like you're doing the Lord's work. you do no wrong, but I will take a hand to the back of your neck like a wayward kitten. probably red-faced, being cuddled between her tits, while you're being led to where you both need to go. a contrast between the peg that man ( she will if it's desired ) and the harder lick my boots type dommy mommy's; if only because, most people have shown her their a lot more adverse to that sort of firm guidance from her specifically.
( I can't tell you how many times I've read how some characters get crazy defensive versus the way they'll just take direction from a character with the same type of personality like say Carol without even bothering to pretend to be offended she's “commanding” them in the same manner but I digress ).
some discussion would be necessary on it, as it should be, but the first is largely going to be unconscious and geared more toward showing rather than telling.
❝ so some’a y'all need t’be talked to crazy, before ya ears clear and y’ understood y’need to hold my hand. like, NOW, actually. ❞ she'll soothe it with a kiss to the face after.
❝ learnin’ so many new thangs ’bout my local white boys , already. wonda ’f ’is count toward community service cultural outreach on my résumé ? Gadé mwen ka allé. wiiii. ❞ she's joking . . . possibly. it does get jotted down in her lil handy , dandy notebook.
Honeyed hues flickered from the face of their illustrious leader to the corner of her eye, where the Cajun toyed with his usual deck of cards. Once. Twice. Three times. Shufflin’ and reshufflin’, each card sliding into the next in quick, idle succession. Those eyes of his ⸻ gleamin’, fixed on her over wide lips curved into a deviously charmin’ grin. He tipped his head, and suddenly Monica could feel his gaze rovin’ slow down the length of her form. Heat trailed after every drift and dip, curling back up to catch her stare. Then Remy winked.
❝ si ou pa tourné ou zyeux, mo va vini fè li pou ou . . . ou ka dévoré mwen. ❞ The hero clicked her tongue at his very obvious attention, arms folded firm across her chest. And if she lets a smile slip when she turns her head . . . well, that’s her little secret, isn’t it?
The nerve to say “that’s cute” and “i can go band for band”. I rarely let the typical condescending back and forth get on my nerves , because Monica can be written as unnecessarily and uncharacteristically domineering and aggressive. but something about the energy in the first panel, the attempt to just mind control her into doing what she wants, and this last panel is giving “i tried to be nice to the brown girl, until she didn't break her neck trippin’ and runnin’ in jubilation to do whatever it is I tell her to do”. is she a dog?
why was she suddenly feelin’ herself DOWN like that? like, everybody and they mama can do photon blasts ⸻ it's really not that crazy of a flex. but Monica “in this issue, I am become energy to kill the big bad (AGAIN)” Rambeau does this shit every other Tuesday, because it's hard to utilize a character that actually can just go into the brain, the heart, and turn an opp into a cumquat or outright just kill them. it's the most mundane thing she is capable of, but very effective. its hard when becoming near limitless light and energy is very easily achieved often. genuinely, the only reason she never stays this way, besides the current writer themselves, is that it is universally recognized that she just doesn't WANT to be at the end of the day. her abilities are unsettling to her and it's why I'm glad they added another nuance of supressing them bc being abnormal as a black woman is not celebrated; having them when her parents are struggling as it is just to have a good life would add more onto their plate, as well. I digress. the whole premise was that they've been studying every moment of her career and she doesn't know the photon beams are basically just her branding?
You choose to love. Love does not come to you easily, but every day you wake up and choose it. It would be so easy, wouldn't it, to grow cold and callous and grim. But you rise to greet the world, making the conscious effort to find something, anything to love. When you fall for someone, you do not kid yourself of their FLAWS. Instead, you resolve to see them for who they are, mistakes and all and you love them all the same. Your love is work, and it does not come easy. Your love sweats and toils. It is calloused and sunburned; it bears scars and comes with stories. Your love is worn, but it is no less valuable for it. Being loved by you is like being loved by a gardener, a mother, a teacher. Your love may not always be the simplest, but it is worth the effort.
I'm not gonna lie , when people are doing that “add random things to the hunch punch” trends, Monica is the friend that knows damn well nobody put a lick of actual juice in it , nor is anyone going to , and pours half a bottle of orange juice , pineapple juice , or punch . . . but then , proceeds to spin the block back on the bourban. and I do mean SPIN THE BLOCK with the most devious look into the camera. cuz , baaaaybeeee !! wi , we gone have a good time.
