Hello! I'm Bellamy Novak (they/them), also known as betwixtbeasts betwixtfiction. I write mostly on 18+ erotica and high-heat romance, with a variety of pairings, though my characters are usually queer.
I'm also in my early thirties, acespec, bisexual, genderfluid, and non-binary. I'm a college student, and I have adhd, depression, chronic pain, and social anxiety. When I'm not busy writing or studying, I'm usually reading or gaming on my xbox or switch.
my hope is to make some new friends, find more to read, and also learn more about writing here on tumblr. and maybe promote my own work a little, as well!
a note; this tumblr may contain nsfw text and/or images. if you are under 18 or feel uncomfortable with that kind of content, please do not follow. thank you!
To protect her people, Aellys must marry the dragonking, unite their empires, and defeat the leviathans who would rule them all.
Dragons and humans have been mortal enemies for as long as anyone can remember, and Queen Aellys hates dragons more than most. They're monsters who deserve nothing but death and destruction, and she will personally hunt down every dragon that sets foot on her land or wing in her sky.
But something worse is coming.
The leviathans are slowly emerging from the sea, great beasts of legend who once had aspirations to take over the world. Only when humans and dragons united were they defeated before. And it is only when humans and dragons unite that they will be defeated once again.
Aellys doesn't want to marry. She has little interest in men, and even less in dragons, but she will do whatever it takes to save her people
As she joins the dragoncourt, she finds King Roaneth is nothing like she expected.
But the leviathans are rising, and time is running out.
Requiem
A hundred years ago, vampires, witches, and werewolves emerged from hiding, revealing themselves to humanity. Soon after that, they took over the world. Forming the Triumvirate, the three ruling races, humans became second-class citizens, serving their supernatural betters.
Oliver is one of the eclipsed, illegally hidden by his parents at birth so that he could exist outside their restrictive rule. Living in society, but apart from it, he steals what he needs and hides during the night. It's a hard life, but one he wouldn't trade for the world.
Until he is caught.
The punishment for not registering yourself at the age of eighteen is harsh, and Oliver is auctioned off to the vampiric elite as a bloodslave. Won by Kazimir, one-third of the Trinity who rule the country. As Oliver is introduced to the decadent world of triumvirate society, he’ll learn nothing is as he thought
can’t go wrong with pining while fucking as a trope. truly it has it all. pining. awkward sexual situations. weapons grade insecurity for all parties involved. the desperation as they inevitably fall further and further while hating themselves for being unable to stick to the contract of no strings attached. etc. you understand
DDLC is not like my favorite game of all time but the fact that Google thinks its too dangerous to keep up after ten years is insane. Horror is typically the next to be sanitized because moral panics about horror are incredibly common.
You cannot establish a world with justice or equality in it by asking for everything that makes you uncomfortable to be censored and removes from the public. This is what practically every content ban within the last five or so years has been. "This makes me uncomfortable, it should be gone".
Obsessed with how Will Graham showed up to work twitching, sweating, and visibly distressed, and the entire department is like “This is Will, he just does this sometimes, he’s in perfect shape to go look at some mutilated corpses”
Bioessentialism will have people saying stuff like "all amabs are dangerous and violent, and all afabs are incapable of harm and pure" and gender essentialism will have people saying "all trans feminine people and trans women are incapable of harm and pure, and all trans masculine people and trans men are dangerous and violent"
And I keep seeing them used as reactions to each other. You get away from one and fall into the other.
"hey, before you interact, tell me what category of humans you think are inherently evil and disgusting and that we should exterminate to live all peacefully and safely? :)" <- this is how it sounds.
I am not joking when I say the death of nuance is the death of us.
For all the folks who have been begging pleading asking for these in the inbox - behold. User @elikaruna is here to save you.
The instructions on adding such things to your AO3 profile are in the news post (at the bottom) - just replace the url in the example with the url of whichever other thing you are putting there. And probably change the alt text.
Masculinity isn't rewarded. Following gender roles is rewarded. Masculine women aren't rewarded. They are weird and queer and unwanted by society. Either that or they are actually performing what I can only describe as a feminine "masculinity" that still fits into men's fantasies. In the same way, trans men's masculinity isn't rewarded. They are going against what is expected of their agab.
I forget straight people have a really bad habit of using top/bottom to mean dom/sub until I’m talking to someone who calls a women in a m/f relationship a ‘top’ and they get mad at me because I think they meant she’s pegging the guy. Apparently they mean she’s just kinda mean and controlling in bed. This is like the 3rd time this year this has happened.
Being into m/f ships is hard because you will look up “Top [women] Bottom [man]” and all the posts will be incorrectly tagged dombottom women/subtop guy and if you ask people to correctly tag stuff you are the bad guy. I want to her fucking him in his hole!!
ao3 changing their header to omega from beta as an April Fools, then the next day instead of switching the header back they announce they're officially no longer in beta anymore is absolute peak 👌
