wl noesbleed convo that bdubs says etho can cut but etho leaves in his episode where bdubs is like picturing you getting a nosebleed trying to do the labyrinth thing was the funniest thing in the world to me. we should go back to that like #confirmed bdubs does at least abstractly picture etho in his mind's eye and for some reason this interpersonal private admission is something etho puts in his ep of a different series than the actual nosebleed situation happened in to a) emphasize making fun of himself or b) be contrary to bdubs and show off being contrary and/or c) so bdubs will laugh and think about it again when bdubs inevitably watched his video. sicko shit

RPF, E for ethubs & explicit. an adaptation in two parts of these posts. etho's first visit to bdubs' is a pit stop on the way to somewhere else, but his second one comes with an offer attached.

know me better, chapter 3, 6.2k. explicit ethubs rpf, emphasis on this chapter on the explicit part. in which bdubs struggles with discernment versus discretion, wives as an abstract, and I.O.Us. thanks for all the nice comments, I hope the payoff is worth the wait <3

don't make me read your mind, you should know me better than that... etho pov companion to the know me better 'what if etho stayed over at bdubs' fic. 3.5k, e for explicit ethubs rpf, ft. whether selfishness wins out and a timely office blowjob.

something blue, 900 words, ethubs rpf. etho and bdubs call and discuss a joke that won't stop coming up in secret life.

anyway something i agonized a fair bit over in read your mind was the blowjob ending bc 1. i think swallowing is overrepresented and also didnt quite fit the "leave a mark" goal. But 2. My impulse for etho to be Rather Particular had my gut going well he'd be fussy about it. except 3. That could be plausibly true of etho in game (he is so fussy abt things being how he likes them), more importantly 4. the whining abt his fingers being numb from superglue while playing po2 + the post shower fhair sticking epm ep + the "i still have sawdust in my eye while trying to record and it sucks" story from horse wall teardown epm indicate that in fact he has a high tolerance for Being gross while doing things & then doing nothing to fix it & only complaining to too many ppl abt shit that is solely within his power to change.

so the point is i think he wouldnt enjoy it personally but he WOULD put up with cumplay for someone else's sake and then make a very obvious lighthearted joke abt ohh see how i suffer for you and bdubs is like can i get you a fucking towel or something and ethos like nooooooooo ill LIVE i GUESS while literally laughing & being too lazy to get up after sex anyway.

something i like even better than etho's nothing & no one is etho having actually a very full life that could easily be implied by all the random hiking trips with family & very occasional mentions of being at a party, or driving around friends, or roofing a friend's house or whatever else BUT, crucially, having trapped himself with only giving bizarre personal info on his own terms & no one else's such that any time he agonizes abt ppl perceiving his obsession with bdubs he doesn't have the easy excuse of Here's The Rest of My Life like bdubs does. bdubs' rest-of-life is also a channel he could spectate on, or was for a good while. and in rpfworld it would be a weak defense even if it was true & even if he could say it but he can't bc it would be soooo transparent anyway. only thing worse than people clocking his hard on for bdoubleo would be trying to defend himself from the accusation. i think he could think himself in circles about this in secret forever
