Tired of them living in my brain rent free tbh

[mas0ch1st1cbaby]

Put too much effort into this and I don't even like them.

[quinngefail]

Sick and TIRED of people pretending Peter isnt a sub. THAT MAN WHIMPERS AND BEGS FOR SURE. (I know this cuz I am happily married with him for 6 years)

Real as fuck

I don't have a whole lot of substantial hcs beyond what I'm about to write, but. Just been cooking up some thoughts for a while now, and am happy to talk about them :) ! There's nothing horribly explicit below, but obviously this is About Suggestive Topics so heads up if you're not into that kinda thing !! There are mentions of other characters in this, but I wrote it in an 'x reader' sorta way for funsies lmao

OKAY 🙏

So if you're someone who regularly pisses him off (Hoffman, Adam), I think he would fucking hate how much he enjoys subbing for you lmao. He'd hate how much time you occupy in his mind (both positively and negatively), and the fact that he's even into you at all. He'd hate knowing just how wound around your finger he is, and the fact that he put himself there, and wouldn't change this for the world. Like it would take a real long time for him to outright admit to any of this

I can imagine him being all huffy and ashamed when it comes to the intimate encounters that involve power play, even though being put in his place never fails to get him flustered and aroused. He'd just still be acting super bitchy HRKSKGS... Like it takes a whole lot to get him to beg, but even then there's an air of annoyance to it. And even if you were to say "if you want to leave, you can leave," he just. Wouldn't,

If you were to say "if this is pissing you off that much, we can-" he'd cut you off, and shamefully mutter something like "no, keep doing it,"

Like he's never NOT consenting. He just has a hard time grappling with his 'weird' kinks + the fact that he wants to do them with you, the person who regularly drives him up the fucking wall.

But as you get deeper into foreplay/The Sex Itself he starts to let his stubbornness down, and actually like. Act more shameless, desperate, whiny, etc

Afterwards and/or the next morning he's right back to square one and is like "You will not tell ANYONE ABOUT THIS,"

But then if you're someone he gets along with + doesn't get on his nerves (namely Perez), I think he's much more open about wanting to be submissive to you. There's definitely still that level of shame, but it's less I'm gonna be a bratty piss baby about this and more... He kinda just gets flustered super easily, especially about wanting 'unconventional' things!! And even if he has a hard time admitting it, he loves your praises, and being a good boy for you. He's absolutely desperate for it. He'd still want his desires to be kept between the two of you off course, and would still be his brash, headstrong self in public- but behind closed doors, he is yours, and loves pleasing (and being pleased) by you.

And curiously, despite his grumblings, he always just keeps coming back for more and repeating the damn cycle 😩 Strange !

I think he'd gradually grow less ashamed of his desires though, and generally act less stubborn/irritable about it all. But I think you're always gonna get at least one annoyed reaction from him lmao

...But y’know THESE ARE JUST MY THOUGHTS OF COURSE 👐 I do also very much see him being a switch, but I wanted to focus more on the submissive side of that. But YEA feel free to agree or disagree with any of this! And thanks for reading :}

LET'S GET MISCHIEVOUS (AND POLYAMOROUS!)

shortly before

[moonyflesh]

i love how as the movies progress, everytime Strahm gets closer to death— weather it’s his own or someone he cares about— there’s a distinct color change in the lighting.

-> when he’s interrogating Jill the lights are very crisp and white with hues of lighter blues and greys.

• BLUE and GREY in theory represent calmness, neutrality, and stability— something Strahm is lacking entirely…but Jill— she keeps her poker face during the entirety of the interrogation.

-> again we see the use of darker blues and black lighting when Strahm is cracking ‘Jigsaw’s’ (M. Hoffman’s) patterns— going so far as to nearly catch him— before being trapped in his own demise…his curiosity quite literally killed the cat.

• DARK BLUE and BLACK in theory portray power, authority, sophistication, mystery, and sometimes even sadness or mourning— (something all of us Strahm fans felt after said scene).

• the authority factor also brings out ideas of the power dynamic between Mark and Peter— Mark having the upper hand in terms of their situation. (if you rewatch the scene, you’ll notice how when the camera pans to Mark, it’s a more vividly black, grainy light, whereas Strahm’s scenes remain more blue and haphazardly blurry, representing his frantic anxiety after finding out who exactly Hoffman is).

-> a greenish-yellow hue of light is introduced whenever Strahm is given a choice: for example, when ‘Jigsaw’ offers him the choice of either finding out who’s really behind the crimes, whilst knowingly risking his life, or instead, turning around and walking the other direction.

• YELLOW-GREEN in theory represents cheer, forward movement, optimism/rejuvenation, growth, vitality, and overall freshness.

• the idea of ‘forward movement’ so clearly gives away what Strahm’s demise is. instead of saving himself (and possibly risking other people’s lives), he is greedy and wants answers, thus killing himself in the process…he moves forward only to be stopped halfway through.

-> finally, i went back and noticed the odd use of the color yellow during Lindsey Perez’s shattered glass scene. unlike the other’s, this choice of lighting is a bright, happy color- despite the jarring circumstances.

• YELLOW in theory can represent two things— joy, happiness, hope, and energy…or caution, warning, and sometimes even sickness (think the color of vomit).

• ORANGE in theory portrays warmth, energy (again), optimism, creativity, transformation, and enlightenment. However, i’ve seen a lot of people claim that it also has negative connotations, like arrogance— which could represent the impatience (and like Strahm, curiosity), that Perez shows, thus nearly killing her.

• BROWN in theory represents warmth and reliability. i don’t think much more is needed— but clearly we see an emotional bond between both Perez and Strahm, and to some onlookers, possibly a romantic one. The second Peter realizes she’s hurt, he’s on his knees for Lindsey- hands cradling her head and keeping her awake as long as he can [“Shh…Stay with me- Common- You’re alright…”]…(yeah i ship them so what).

so basically there are a few different flavors of saw pairings
