i drew my s/o holding a gigantic humoungous coconut bigger than his head and being super excited about it πππ«£
this picture is like, straight out of his instagram BAHAHHA the coloring is kind of inspired by a photographer i learned about in class that does beach photography with a super strong flash, but i don't know if i drew it right...
anyways isn't he the sweetest thing ever ππ his smile is too pure for this reality, i swear. I love Jae to death and can't wait to be his personal photographer when we're out 𫦠𫦠how is he so hOTTTT you guys don't even know π
SOREN. Soren. Since your home reality is an omegaverse, how does the gender dynamics work there? I'm rlly curious. ALSO ARE YOU AN ALPHA????
IM A DOMINANT OMEGA BUT I MOSTLY LOOK ALPHA! πΊπΊ now onto the gender dynamics, it's a very broad question so I'll just explain the secondary sexes and yap about them a little!
there are seven: "true" alpha, "sub" alpha, "dom" beta, "true" beta, "sub" beta, "true" omega and "dom" omega.
in my dr, although we sometimes do refer to these as secondary genders, they are not genders by definition, given they're not social constructs but purely biological. whatever shows up on the blood test is what you are, it's determined by chromosomes much like a blood type is, and it affects your biological functions. although it is of course tied to the way society works, I scripted it's not that relevant, it's really more like medical information, the way your body works.
anyways, the ones containing "true" in the middle are like, pure? like, just alpha, just omega, just beta - the ones people who consume entry level omegaverse media are more familiar with me thinks. then the ones with "dom" or "sub" are sort of mixes. it's about chromosomes, like I said. there's a complicated explanation for it but let's stick with mixes; it's like a mix of omega and alpha, for an example. sub meaning omega and dom meaning alpha (yes it's outdated terminology but who cares it's not like the world is full of the equivalent of omegaverse discrimination so it's fine!). most people in these combination categories tend to be what would be considered in old reality intersex, especially the ones that don't have beta in them.
the mixes can manifest in multiple ways, from ""mismatched"" (by conventions of OR, again) reproductive organs, to instincts, to experiencing "fake" cycles and ruts. and the possibilities of percentage are infinite. using my beloved as an example, I mentioned this last post already, but he is a sub alpha that fully leans on the omega side to the point that he basically lives as an omega. if it wasn't for the blood test, people would probably just assume that he was an omega who happened to be infertile, but he's infertile because at the end of the day he's still biologically an alpha and his uterus is underdeveloped. one thing about alphas is that they can't carry very well, even when they happen to have uteruses.
some people might be very in the middle, a perfect mix that most won't be able to clock. I, for an example, look mostly like an alpha, but not enough to fully trick people. so they're just left wondering what the fuck I am BAHAHA
something about concords (our species) is that we thrived against other humans species because of how malleable our anatomy is. this does lead to bodies that to people here might not sound optimal, like producing semen but not having a penis, for example, which is pretty common actually. this variety that happens so fast between generations, combined with the fact our whole evolution was more mating and group focused, ensured we were the species that managed to make more babies and protect them better than the others (including homo sapiens sapiens bleeeeh you guys LOSE THE EVOLUTION GAME LOSERRSSS!!!)
omega leaning people tend to have sweeter scents, alpha leaning people tend to have muskier scents, and betas have herbal-ish scents. but it's really not black and white, nothing in my dr really is. i, for an example, even though I lean alpha, i have notes of tangerines in my pheromones. tangerines would mostly be associated with omegas, but π€·π€·. your scent is influenced by your life experiences, too. there's an idol in my dr that smells like lavender because he apparently drowned one time and received CPR near a lavender field. the memory was so strong that it became his scent (this is one of the most random dr memories I ever got btw)
I think this is it! it was a wide question so if you have any follow ups please do tell!
(I've been sitting here with toner on my hair for maybe an hour and a half writing this bcs I wrote the whole thing, it posted without the thing and I lost it, then I had to rewrite it. let's hope my hair doesn't fall off ππ)
I donβt find shifting into omegaverse weird honestly, it can also be cute, so why not π
How are you and your s/o in heats/ruts??? π€ How would you deal with it alone/apart from each other??
omg the first question is already this juicy? π«£π«£ NSFW WARNING GUYS!! I don't mind it, though BAHAHA long read ahead btw! bcs ofc I had to explain all of the concepts before answering the question, let me yap!! thank you for sending an ask, btw! ππ
I find the omegaverse very cool, always have, it always kind of felt like home to me given how... instinctual stuff is? I'm literally half animal (alterhuman), so it's always felt right, like an in-between of sorts. I'm glad you don't find it weird, hehe π§‘
(let me establish real quick that concords (the name of my species there) are extremely malleable when it comes to this sort of thing. that's why we came out on top when other species of human couldn't have enough babies. so if none of this makes sense with old reality science, trust, it does make sense in my dr BAHAHAHA and even if it doesn't make sense in context, it still happens. that's just the way it is when a species is very adaptive and puts mating and aesthetics as its priority in order to further itself and not get extinct.)
sOO. heats and ruts. i'm a dominant omega (commonly referred to as dom-omega), and Jae is a recessive alpha (commonly referred to as sub-alpha). The spectrum of what our bodies experience is almost infinite, given we're both what would be considered intersex in the old reality, and people with these secondary sexes can lean fully to one side or the other, stay in the middle, or somewhere in between.
Jae, is a very, vEry omega leaning sub-alpha. if you look at him, if you smell his pheromones, you'd probably be fooled. everyone thought he'd present as an omega, but he turned out to just BARELY not be. in my dr, these things are biological, so if the blood test says sub alpha, then that's it, it's in the chromosomes. he is so omega leaning, that he experiences everything an omega does, even though he can't get pregnant. like many other sub-alphas, he has an underdeveloped uterus, and would have to go through a lot of treatments to be able to carry, and there would probably still be dangers.
in my case, as a dom-omega, it's kind of like the same thing mirrored, although my relationship with my secondary sex throughout my earlier years was much more complicated and that's a topic for some other day π«£. I am more alpha leaning, especially now that I'm taking hormones to make my body work the way it's meant to after suppressing it for quite some time. I'm not at the point where people mistake me for an alpha, more like they get confused because they can't tell what I am, especially because dom-omega are so rare that some people still believe they don't really exist.
I experience faux ruts, in the same way that Jae experiences faux heats. but ruts are not tied to a cycle, so they don't have a time to happen. most people get them regardless of outside stimuli around twice a year. but if you have a mate that goes into their heat or rut, it can trigger your rut. there are sort of... quick ruts? where it's merely tied to the other's estrus and stuff. but there's ruts, mostly these obligatory biannual ones, that are rougher. like, phasing in and out of consciousness level rougher. what happens is that your body starts producing ejaculate like CRAZY and if you don't manage to get rid of it fast enough you start losing your fucking mind and it also hurts like a bitch, especially when you knot by yourself BAHAHAHA like heats, it's a very psychological experience, so it's easy to lose your cool. but with heats, a lot of the times your instinct is to stay in a safe place and wait, to be the receiver. meanwhile with ruts, you get the urge to search, to run around and give, so they tend to be more destructive if you're by yourself.
with the descriptions down, I want to add that I said "mostly" heats or ruts for each of us because given our sexes, we can experience both. I mostly get ruts, Jae mostly gets heats, but once in a long while they change up and I get a heat or he gets a rut. it's... an experience for sure. oh, and there's the whole concept of wanting to be claimed or marked, or doing the claiming or marking during the estrus. I won't mention it much here, but it's there in between all the horniness π€
for our heats and ruts, we just huddle together at one or the other's house and do it until we're satisfied. for his heats, at first I want to go to his apartment so that he can be comfier in his bed, his usual nest. we just spend time together, mostly having sex, then sleep a ton, then I force him to eat and drink something for the small window of time where he's awake and can manage to not jump me, then we watch a movie or something until it's time to start all over again. this lasts from four to six days. I do SO much laundry, man.... oh and let me mention heat pudge. my fav thing ever. remember I mentioned that omegas get really hungry in pre-heat? they tend to put on a bit more weight, and Jae does, and it's so... UGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! give me!!!!! πππ it goes away after the amount of... exercise, during heat. hate to see it leave but love to watch it go... ππ
when it's my big deal ruts, Jae comes over and stays with me, to, again, have loads of sex πͺπͺ he helps me through the brain fog, forces me to eat, cleans up, etc. I'm such an emotional mess when I'm rut, truly, and I freak the fuck out if he's not around, especially given the whole "I tried shifting for SO long and missed you for six years" thing πππ... poor guy always comes out looking like a chew toy. but he likes it so it's okay πͺ ruts last from two to five days, and it's just that, sex for hours, sleep, wake up, refuse food until it gets shoved down my throat, then sex for hours again.
when we're away from each other, we mostly take suppressants. full stop suppressants (which as the name says just completely stop the estrus from happening) are bad for you long term, so we mostly just take weaker stuff that softens the whole experience or gets rid of specific symptoms, like taking away the libido and leaving you with just the cramps, or something that stops your body from producing too much sperm. then we video call teehee....
heats and ruts are harder for mated pairs like us, because we solely crave each other. so when one isn't around, toys and stuff don't help as much as they would help someone that's unmated. that's why we take the suppressant approach instead of what mostly happens in other omegaverse media π in general, heats and ruts are so variable between people, and there's so much that could happen that I didn't even mention here... it's just endless possibilities.
oh, fun fact, when his heat and my big deal ruts align, we can sometimes hear each other's thoughts and feel each other's pleasure because we're fated mates hehehe... spiritual experience, really π₯΄π
and... yeah that's it!!! holy fuck this is my biggest post yet!! I like seeing lore dumps from people, especially about biological stuff like this so I hope you're one of the people that likes them too and that you're not bored to death....
one thing I love about home07 (main dr) is being free to eat. I mean, in a monetary sense, y'know? it's more than just going to fancy restaurants, it's ordering delivery when I want to eat something specific or don't feel like cooking. it's filling up the cart with the options I want instead of the cheapest. it's buying a tub of ice cream because I want it and I can afford it. it's not feeling dread when I realize I'm running out of something I like. it's eating a bag of chips in one sitting. it's not hoarding until things go bad because I don't know when I'll be able to have it again and I need to save it for the perfect moment... it's finally managing to gain weight.
I'm not going hungry by any means and I'm thankful for that, but y'know... I just want a treat π₯Ήπ₯Ή a burger and some fries π₯Ήπ₯Ή a bag of candy π₯Ήπ₯Ή something new and limited edition I saw in the store and wanted to try π₯Ήπ₯Ή I deserve it π₯Ήπ₯Ή
having a big family that does gatherings often. we see each other, we know each other, we have memories with each other - we're close. I grew up with a cousin around my age, and we're partners in crime along with her mother π«‘
the fact I can go to the grocery store and just buy what I need and want, without having to settle for the cheapest option or give up on buying something I want because of prices.
having ac in the house!!! god I love my ac π
having free rein, using quality public transportation to get anywhere and really knowing how to do it confidently. like, my little squad will just decide we want to go somewhere on the other end of the city, I'll just say "mom, I'm going out today", meet up with them, get on a bus an somehow end up there.
the yearly obon matsuri at the buddhist temple!!! favorite event of the year, hands down!!! my grandpa always either has a food stall there or helps around the main kitchen, so every year ever since I was a kid I was there. now I get to take Jae (my bf) there for the first time (he moved to my city less than a month ago), to eat until we can't walk, dance bon odori with the old ladies, buy trinkets, and just enjoy each other's company (plus I get to see him wearing yukata π₯΄ so endearing holy shit). since we're sort of microcelebrities, we'll do part of the hosting at some point, too.
the cold weather. the cold season is longer and it gets colder than it does in OR. so for a decent time of year, we get to dress all nicely and be cozy at home π
smooth pavement. holy shit. I can roller skate anywhere. the world is my oyster.
in the roller skating theme, the roller rink!! there is a huge roller rink just two subway stops away from my house. I have a membership there, and I love spending hours there, losing myself in my favorite hobby ππ I'm thinking of trying to teach Jae, too.
living walking distance to basically all of my friends. we walk together to school and back, and it's very easy to hang out.
school. I'm starting highschool, in this new, super cool school. the grounds are huge, the uniforms are nice, there are clubs and events and loads of fun. besides, my dyscalculia is diagnosed, and I am simply excused from any exact subjects ππ. there's a huge nice cafeteria, a small convenience store inside the school, we have lockers, a permanent classroom... oh I just love it. I can't wait for the start of the school year.
the fact all of my medical stuff is up to date. I have a complicated medical past, and due to a few rough years spent some time without being checked out. but last year my parents took me to every single kind of doctor that exists to get every test done. they did find some crazy stuff going on with my hormones and pheromones, and I'm currently taking medicine for it. I start actual testosterone in a few weeks.
buying things I want just because I want them. without worrying about the issues of consumerism. like, I can have multiple mechanical pencils, if I see one being released that I want, even though I have another, I can still buy it!
the apartment where I live with my family is freshly renovated, and we have all the cleaning gadgets I dreamed of, so being able to clean it? fully? oh, perfect!!!
inviting friends over without worrying, too. I can just do a quick clean and everything will look clean (apartment in OR is so old that even after a deep clean it still looks musty). then we can go to the kitchen to bake cake and make hotdogs and binge watch whatever series dropped this weekend!
that's it for part one! writing these down is actually a good exercise for remembering more general things, I recommend!
just bought expensive cloth softener that smells like peaches because i miss my omega πππ and it's genuinely comforting for me to find anything that lightly smells like him πππ because i need his scent on me πππ because we're mates and we're supposed to smell like each other ππππππ
just realized people probably think i call Jae "wife" as a joke but since my drs are omegaverse and he's always either an omega or omega leaning, wife is the simply right term π turns out y'all don't live inside my head. it's real, by definition he'll be wife and mother BAHAHAHAHA
