Self-inserts are a form of self-love. What’s a better self-confidence boost than saying “If I were in my favorite series, I would look SO COOL and all my blorbos would be MADLY IN LOVE WITH ME and I would have AWESOME POWERS and I would have the BEST BACKSTORY and the fandom would ADORE ME.”
Just saw Transformers One with my brother, I feel like my guts were ripped out and replaced with something else
People can say whatever they want, I loved it.
your f/o loves you sooooo much oh my god. Your f/o is like. actually obsessed with you? it’s peak romance. it’s awesome
robot and AI f/o havers imagine your F/O(s) nearly short-circuiting bc you gave them a lil kiss
Casual intimacy with your fictional lover, which can apply to platonic f/os:
Laying on the floor together.
Listening to music/records together.
Long, deep conversations.
Sitting in comfortable silence, holding hands if you like being touched.
Reading aloud to your f/o, or vice versa.
Laying their head in your lap while you stroke their hair.
Imagine your f/o feeling really nervous when they’re around you, so they end up rambling when they speak to you.

Imagine your F/O being really, truly infatuated with the way you look. Of course, you have plenty of other traits they adore and admire, but they would be lying if they said they didn’t find you the most beautiful person they’ve ever laid eyes on. They could write endless poetry about how your eyes sparkle, how your smile makes them weak at the knees, how angelic you look even when you’re just standing there. They’ll always feel like the luckiest person in the world for having been chosen by you.
this is a reminder for selfshippers that its okay to make your f/os obsessed with you. so true they WOULD think about you all the time. so true they WOULD bring you up in every conversation. the world could be ending and your f/o would only mourn not getting to give you enough affection
Happy Halloween!!
How are you spending it with your f/o? Do you stay indoors and watch movies, maybe wait for trick or treaters to come so you can hand out candy together? Or maybe you’re out and about, at a party or just on the hunt for candy!
Maybe you’re in the mood for scares - why not bring them to a haunted house to see them get spooked? All in the spirit of the season of course ;)
Whatever way you choose to spend it, it’ll be lots of fun I’m sure.
In your f/os eyes, nobody compares to you. To them, you are the best thing that's ever happened to them, and they'll always cherish you. You never have to worry about being taken for granted. They'll always remind you of your worth and how much you mean to them.
