i’ve been feeling rly sluggish and a little down, so just to motivate myself and remind myself

give me someone surprising their primary partner with brunch in bed and snuggling up to their side as they share all the details about the night they spent with their secondary partner
give me a married couple struggling to handle their new open arrangement and dealing with all the jealousy and possessiveness that they never expected themselves to feel
give me a life-long straight dude starting to question his sexuality seemingly out of nowhere and nervously asking in his long-term girlfriend if he can explore those feelings on the side and work out what’s going on (or vice versa)
give me a quad going out for dinner acting like it’s a double date and confusing everyone around them by switching “partners” halfway through for shits and giggles
give me two points of a vee becoming besties and having sleepovers where they get drunk and share embarrassing stories about their mutual partner
give me a monogamous person inviting their poly partner’s other partners over for a birthday dinner and enjoying their company far more than they expected
give me a little kid telling their friends about their mommies and daddies and their friends thinking their family is the coolest freaking thing no matter how much their parents frantically try to trick them into thinking that the kid just meant that they lived with their uncles and aunts
give me an unplanned but welcomed pregnancy and the frantic “is it mine is it his who looks after it whose name goes on the birth certificate how does this work holy shit” that follows
give me a tacky YA love triangle all crushing on each other like crazy and realising one day that it doesn’t have to end with one of them getting hurt when they can all just love on each other instead
give me a couple that married for money and reputation striking up this unexpected friendship and encouraging each other’s so-called “affairs” with their respective high school sweethearts
giVE ME POLYAMORY
bottlenose dolphins photgraphed by (click pic) vitaly sokol, francois gohier, gerald lacz and craig tuttle. most dolphins can jump over twenty feet high out of the water. for dolphins, jumping out of the water actually uses less energy than swimming through water.
I wish you good fortune in the wars to come.

When writing couples, I like to use the Kiss Rule:
If they have to kiss for you to know they’re in love, you’re not writing a romance right.
