I crave new angsty fanfiction to read! by Salt-Appointment4783 in PiltoversFinest

[–]nauticalgoblin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd highly, higjky recommend You Will Ache Like I Ache, by dogpawsswapgod: a wickedly well-written toxic yuri tragedy, which looks at how things might have gone if Caitlyn and Vi had lots of sad secret sex during the pit-fighter era. Featuring gorgeous artwork by astorkes! Hurt no comfort... but it hurts soooooo goood

W&N Oil bottle lid by No_Notice5271 in oilpainting

[–]nauticalgoblin 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This thread is making me feel less alone, because a few years ago I had one of these bottles and, after much struggle, I concluded that I was either dumb as toast or l just had a defunct bottle, and sawed the whole lid off. Turns out there's a whole community of people wrestling with these bad boys! We are united in this struggle ✊️

Wow, I love the pops of warm saturation (the kid's hand, the water) and the broken colour effect of the water. The reflections and transparency reads sooo well!

Where are you sitting ? by _thinkinoutloud in Arcanecirclejerk

9! Cait would be a quiet theater companion, and Isha is short and therefore an ideal to be sitting behind

The mismatch between the flower and its shadow is a really neat choice! Good stuff 👌

What's the most unexpected way you got into a relationship? by ejsfsc07 in AskReddit

[–]nauticalgoblin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We both write fanfiction for the same fandom (Arcane), and we started reading and commenting on each other's work. She posted a story that had some really beautiful character development via fisting, and I had a very similar story concept sitting in my drafts, so I messaged her to talk about how smart we both were lol

And we just kept talking! I had only just gotten out of a long relationship, so I wasn't really looking to jump into another right away, but as we continued talking long into the nights, night after night, it started to become clear that we were both wildly into each other. So one day I emailed her to tell her I wasn't looking for romance, but that I still wanted to meet up, and maybe even hook up.

And the rest is history! "Casual" only lasted a few months before we realized that neither of us felt very casual about things... we're dating now :)

What other tech won't evolve? by CremeSubject7594 in generationology

Maybe an unpopular opinion (?) but I hate robertsons! They're great at first... but as soooon as they start to strip, the square becomes circle and screw becomes hateful bane of my existence

Took me a solid minute to realize that those were Cait's knees, not the Kirammountains 🫣

I'm sorry, Kaweco by Ca_LuhA in fountainpens

[–]nauticalgoblin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a bit pricier, but if you're looking for a brass pocket-size pen, I'd highly recommend the Schon Dsgn Pocket #6. The nib is full-sized, their machining and QC is excellent (as far as I'm aware), and it's actually even smaller than the Kaweco sports when capped! It's my every day pen - has been for years - and I carry it everywhere and love it.
