Kind of out of pocket question, but I had it for weeks in my head.
I know it's too early for this, but I keep seeing the so called "Eventual Smut" tag before reading a chapter. But looking at your version of Bill it's really hard for me to see happening. Not bc I want it that much tbh, but how can a human phobic being that hates every inch of human body (not just his) get suddenly interested in it? Also I know Bill's relationship with his body is less than ideal, but are there no parts at all he likes about it? Like nothing? And also what about Ford? Is there anything in him physically he finds appealing or beautiful?
Or maybe I'm thinking too much into it and the tag is not valid anymore, I guess I'm just curious, but only got around to ask this now
✨ Hey, Hey! ✨
No out of pocket questions here!
The “eventual smut” tag definitely still applies 😉. When we reach that point, I’ll probably be updating tags again. I’ve been flying by the seat of my pants with those so far.
Regarding the rest of your question, I don’t think Bill is ‘human phobic’ so much as he hates being reduced so vastly from the being of pure energy that he was to a mortal shell with constant needs and no magic when he’s been firmly in control of everything around him for millennia. I think he mostly hates how weak and vulnerable that makes him more than anything else. Though he’ll be getting used to being human sooner rather than later.
In terms of sexual attraction (and while tiptoeing around spoilers) I headcanon both Bill and Ford to be somewhere on the sapio/demisexual spectrum in the sense they’re more attracted to intangible qualities in other people.
Bill, the last of his species who’s been roaming the multiverse for thousands of years, I think is most attracted to beings who are outcasts or have some ‘weird’ physical aspect. Also those who are particularly cunning, hedonistic, resourceful, intelligent, or just plain chaotic.
Ford, on the other hand, I think was largely uninterested in sex for most of his early life or saw it as a clinical/biological act that humans did to reproduce. It wasn’t until he developed a strong connection for the first time with Fiddleford that it really clicked for him. There were probably trysts in the thirty years he was in the multiverse with aliens who were intelligent, open minded, or experts in their field with a passion for their work (I think little Ford would have had a huge crush on Spock ☺️) but these wouldn’t last long since he was always on the move.
Bill and Ford’s current and past intimate relationship (in my opinion) is always rooted in their deep (sometimes obsessive) attraction to each other’s personalities and life experiences. Anything physical will always come from that.
To put it metaphorically, it’s not one color in the picture Bill likes, it’s the whole painting. I personally don’t think it would matter to Bill if Ford was an Euclydian, a Klingon, or a Space Whale.
Bill doesn’t love and want Ford because he’s human, he wants him because he’s Ford. And vice versa.
Hope this answered your question! Take care! 🥰❤️

A little comic of one of my favorite scenes from Chp.28
@sapphosscribe
(Tbh, might not be able to work these into A Human Condition. But I headcanon Bill likes both of these but would deny it if asked about it. I also listen to these a lot thinking about his character)
FANART of long-haired Bill in his favorite shirt from the lovely @orpheuswasmine before tomorrow’s update! See you all soon!
Click image for high quality!

Enjoy your regular Sunday update, dear readers. It’s a good one! 😉🥰
If I'm not mistaken, based on the "Act 2 Spoilers Without Contexts": I think 4/9 images have happened so far
Am I right?
Actually, only one so far 🫢 the mirror.
Though another one is coming with the next update and I think you can all prooooobably guess which 😉.
The tv one is not what you think. It’s yet to occur. All of these are going to be rapid fire in the next few chapters, so I’m glad you brought it up!
Be on the look out all you eagle-eyed mystery solving readers 😂☺️.
MORE BILL ART from @raviolireptile Gaze upon his magnificence!! This looks so amazing!! 🤩🥰
Fanart for “A Human Condition” on Ao3! This fic is so good I highly recommend it
Plus an extra karaoke Bill
I love him. Anyway go read A Human Condition by SapphosScribe on Ao3 it’s incredible!!
@sapphosscribe
Needless to say, I immediately thought of Ford and some of the scenes I’ve pre written for upcoming chapters of A Human Condition especially considering this is mainly a piano song.
Nothing too soon, but… it’s coming 😉

I’m looking ahead to future chapters and I have come to a crossroads for one section of the story, so I thought I’d put the decision in your hands:
We’ll see what the fates have in store….
