Oscar Talking Strategies I LOVE HIM, He Doesn’t Necessarily Have To Worry Rn And Yet He’s Being Cautious

What are you looking for?

Lou Ferrigno Jr you are the man for me

First of all, I've absolutely loved the fic, I love how you write them interacting with eachother. Secondly, I'd love to hear more about your lube research because from what I've gathered Vaseline was invented in 1872, but it became a popular lubricant in the mid 1900's and the first comercial lube was invented in 1904.

Thanks for your fic!

I full body CACKLED at this ask 🤣 thank you for liking my fic! It means the world to me that people are liking it!

As for the research…

I am no historian by ANY means, so I just waved my hand around some technical things and made up a rhetoric for myself:

If one person from this couple is a more seasoned veteran on being gay, he’d know more about **things**

Said person is not rich (by the era standards) but he’s probably got good connections in a community that is marginalized and persecuted (meaning, they’ve got each other’s backs and would help out with almost anything, to their abilities)

Probably has had more than 1 partner in the past so it’s trial and error, practice makes perfect, and experience mixed all together

Taking all of this into consideration… while yes, petroleum jelly was **just** invented but hadn’t actually gained a popular status in the market, what were other historically known substances used prior to its invention?

Oils.

And Henry could probably get his hands on some better quality ones (both by his presence as a photographer and how alluring people used to find that profession [ie. payment through services or favors/products for **explicit** photography]). So think, more than the cooking olive oil or oils you’d find in a kitchen, he’d probably have access to things like clove oil or even hemp seed oil. Maybe even GOOD quality ones that come from outside England (importing them would’ve made them wayyy more expensive, but if poppy sold for cheaper than bread, surely some seller would sell nice oils for a more affordable price).

… or they could’ve easily raw-dogged it and used saliva.

FINALLY FINISHED IT! I hope you enjoy it 🫶🏻

Perhaps, after all, that is what love means

”I get the impression that it will be hard for me to deny you anything.”

“How observant, detective. What led you to that conclusion?”

He chuckles, smiling at Henry, who looks at him with a glimmer. Like a kid looking at candy floss.

“A hunch.”

(Or: episode 4 coda; what happens after they find the print)

What if I started making buddie fic trading cards to show some extra love and support to writers during the hiatus?

Assuming I have the time and energy while also running 911hiatus 😅

Lance tapping Gasly- nothing new here

Charles is doing really good everyone pray that he finishes first 🙏🏻🤞🏻🕯️

Charles also getting fastest lap iktr

The Lecrecs being top two brings balance to the world

(Silently wishing that Max overtakes George)

Esteban with a penalty for tapping Pierre- well deserved, stop running into your teammate pls

CARLITOS WITH THE FASTEST LAP RN

No no no don’t tell me about Oscar’s car’s damage, don’t want to think about it giving him problems rn I might cry

If you see this on your dashboard, reblog this, NO MATTER WHAT and all your dreams and wishes will come true.

Did you ever actually love the character? Or did you just like them if the writers made your own headcanons come true?

(Yes, this is about Evan Buckley.)

Hot take: if you are one of those people that would literally have buddie or nothing at all (bi!buck being canon) then you are no better than the Buckley parents… I’ll repeat that one more time, in case it didn’t register with you:

You are no better than the Buckley parents.

Nothing Buck ever does is good enough for you: him discovering this new part of himself and exploring it isn’t enough, him being giddy and infatuated and HAVING AND HONEST TO GOD CRUSH isn’t enough, him being HAPPY isn’t enough.

He isn’t enough. Perhaps he never was enough for you.

But he is everything and more to so many people. His story means THE WORLD to so many people. People that literally never watched the show before are either now watching it or have just heard about it BECAUSE of his current storyline. This story matters. He matters. And if you can’t put aside your ship for one second to appreciate how huge this is, both inside and outside of the show, then you never actually loved this character in the first place.
