I noticed this in 'Catafalque', but it was made even more obvious here: Viktor comes off as your quintessential snarky progressive who thinks he's smarter than he is. This entire fic is about fucking - read, masturbating - while on one's period, and neither Jayce nor Viktor have the decency to approach the issue like adults. It reads like a Reddit confession where a pooner has a mental breakdown over a normal female physiological response that has not yet been nuked by T.
Also, getting hurt by kicking a metal trashcan? For as big as Jayce is? Weak.

I previously gave kudos to this author for her good writing, but there are times where it veers off into purple-prose territory with sayings, metaphors, similes or idioms that simply do not make sense. Toxin spots from what? "Devoid of the barest coordination" - from what? "Emotional outbursts so excessive they sound like criminal confessions"? This sounds like the author - who is FTM trans, btw, in case you didn't notice - knows nothing about periods despite being female. Not every woman becomes a murder machine while on her period. It's utterly stereotypical as to be both eye-rolling and offensive.
We also read that Viktor is so bad at group projects he'll purposely flunk them, and then acts surprised and shocked that anyone might dislike him. He reads as a terrible modern Millennial fucktard who would probably snark at you for not knowing a specific scientific term despite being a flunked out failed student.
His unsureness of whether to kick Jayce out is typical pooner indecision. You cannot write him as a smarmy, snarky motherfucker who 'knows what he's doing' to being afraid of kicking Jayce out because he's acting like Audrey Hale.
> Twelve in the evening
You mean morning?

What is with this modern Millennial writing? We got from serious, smart dialogue to WOW OH WOW and MAYBE JUST MAYBE I'LL BE AN ASSHOLE, OKAY? dialogue like it's a bad Bill Maher skit. New rule, OK? Don't insist you're better at writing League Lore when you can't even write these characters correctly.
> Perfectly in control of all his rational facilities
He just had a mental breakdown over getting his period, like he just got it for the first time.
> Race of Men
Haha, nice try, but you will YWNBAM.
> Aftertaste to his brilliance
He sure loves getting high of the smell of his own shit, doesn't he? Don't worry, her Viktor doesn't improve. At all.

Imagine you're this author thinking you're hot shit because you make a compendium of all JayVik interactions and you honestly, for the life of you, cannot tell the difference between an
obstetrician and a proctologist. The former doesn't deal with things shoved up your ass, the latter does. This is just as egregious and retarded as her 'the warmth of your skin turns pure gold to goo' comment.

People really need to stop typing like Millennials/Gen Z/Gen Alpha. It absolutely spoils the mood of whatever you're trying to write and it a pure case of projection.
Viktor saying he isn't self-centered or anti-social or whatever while acting smarmy when Jayce is menstruating and not bothering to explain to him it's NBD means that yes, he is a self-centered motherfucker. And he's not an enjoyable one where you LIKE his bad attitude. He's just intolerable in the way snarky pooners are.

Ever heard of the term, 'absolute power corrupts absolutely'? You can have the nicest person on earth who checks off all the boxes and then watch them become absolute monsters once they get a smidgen of power. You'd think Viktor, being from the Undercity, would understand this. Humans are normally NOT good people, especially when deprived of resources/status is threatened/threatened in general. He's very naïve thinking this - and LoL Viktor wasn't even remotely convinced that humans would be rational enough to handle such power.

So, they kiss for the first time, and Viktor handles it like a pro because I guess we're to assume he's a slut or something? Whatever, it's a fucking weird thing to read. For a smut-not-smut, it is insanely moody, and reads like something Anita Sarkeesian would write. Both of them are biological women; they don't have toys or anything resembling a phallic object, they just rut on each other like pigs and fingerbang. 'Brusque' is not the word I'd use, but I'd definitely use 'plain awful'.

> Stirring of hot breast
Are we making cookies? This is akin to her 'his face was like a s'more' simile. It's awkward as hell and her beta needs to be whipped.
> Dispersing like a fractured link
Weird description for something vaguely liquid. When I read 'fractured link', I think of metal and steel.
And yes, Viktor was finger-banging Jayce while free bleeding, because pooners get triggered at feminine hygiene products.

> Apologizes for something he hasn't done
> Has a natural inclination to argue
> Doesn't understand these things contradict each other
> Extremely female-brained
Jayce is angry that someone caught him menstruating - even when he had every opportunity to tell Viktor to stop. He didn't, because drama, and treats this like a crime scene because menstruation is somehow evil to a pooner (it does remind them they are female after all).
BTW, Viktor
never actually washes his bloody hand. He just touches every object and even the sheets with that hand. It's something the author vaguely addresses but never fixes. Nice.

I hate this dialogue, I really do. It makes these characters extremely unlikable. Endless snark is not a character trait; it just makes your audience hate them, and for very good reason.
> "Go throat a fork"
Weak-ass insult. Of course it comes from a pooner so they have no insult game whatsoever.
>Makes a mental note to ration his usage better
Ah, so they're both menstruating, it's just that Viktor, being on T, more or less lost his. And Jayce is so 'brilliant' and part of The Men that he can't even comprehend that feminine hygiene might be importantly. Instead, he free bleeds all over Viktor's clothes, bedsheets and more and then gets mad AT HIM for being a bitch about it. Fucking hell.

I'm getting 'Coming Home' vibes from this dialogue. Eugh.
> You smell like a hemorrhage
So...copious amounts of blood. About as bad as 'bloodpumper' and other shit this author has used. That's like me saying, 'Oh you smell like a burst artery'. The fuck does that even mean? Eyes have been rolled, indeed.

> They're both very uncool
Shut the fuck up.
If Jayce is bleeding that much, that usually means a uterine cyst has burst, which means you need to seek medical attention, now. If not, something is wrong. This guy bled through his underwear, pants, and the bedsheets. Maybe treat the issue with a little more respect, yeah?
> Hot tip: jokes are funny
And you aren't.

Oh wow, Viktor has a little bit of self-awareness that his snarky attitude has consequences. Your 'lover' and fuckbuddy-not-fuckbuddy has just had a very personal accident and is bleeding copiously, and you haven't done a thing to help. You're not being rational - you're being the stereotypical mouthy, bitchy, selfish pooner who needs her teeth knocked out.
> Brain's molar first response to facing something vulnerable
The molars are at the back of the mouth. You latch on with your canines and incisors. If you're going to use a tooth metaphor, use it right.
>Taking it as wild prey for teeth
What? No, really, what the fuck does this mean?
> Top is still bound
Ah, we've got the binding! Imagine the shape of those pancake tits.
> Squishy bits into a human ball
Are you made of Play-Doh?

Stop. Fucking. Talking. Like this. You aren't quirky. I also have to wonder why Jayce isn't keeping track of his periods if they're such an issue, like actual women do.

Yes, you are a complete fucking tool. The fuck is with this moodiness? You decide one minute that you like being kissed and fingered, and now you get angry when asked if you liked it. And to answer your question: yes, you are an asshole. Glad we agreed on something.
> It's a bit arousing, death threats aside
Can't decide whether you're offended or aroused, nice job. These people are moodier than drug addicts at a Waffle House.

He's asking you a normal question, Jayce: did you like the finger-banging or not? You being on your period doesn't give you the right to be a prick. I get you're eternally angry you don't have one, but shut the fuck up. Need I remind people this 'True and Honest' Man is s
till bleeding on the sheets, and absolutely refuses to use a tampon because he doesn't want to get penetrated? Pads exist. Menstrual cups exist. Clean yourself up, you filthy degenerate.

Why does this read like an MTF, not an FTM, wrote it? Oh wow, titties are touching!
I also audibly snickered at Viktor doing a genital inspection test. Usually troons would be mortified at this, but here we got a pooner doing just that. It's OK when they do it, it's inspirational.
> Miracle of science he doesn't have to wear one of these things anymore
What? Pads? Jayce wasn't wearing one otherwise there wouldn't be that much blood everywhere -
unless he forgot to change it, making him a slob.

> Rubbing it until a dent is done
A DENT in a roid clit? OUCH. That made me cringe.
> Smells like the soap he keeps on his shelf
I thought he smelled like a haemorrhage?
> Swell of his dick
Clit or dick, make a decision, pooner.

> Raspy material and wet meat
I do not understand how this author thinks this arrangement of words makes it remotely erotic. It makes me think of a YouTube cooking tutorial of them slapping raw meat on the counter.
> Delayed embarrassment finally dawning on him
Huh? You had no issue finger-banging him before. Why are you embarrassed now?
Ha, notice the ARE YOU WINNING SON? meme?

Lmao, Jayce is also a pooner. Watch him get knocked the fuck over by a male tennis player. He'll flop like a ragdoll.
>How come they don't do this more often?
Well aside from the moody back-and-forth from pooners angry they don't have real dicks, maybe it's because i
t's literally your first time doing it? This couple has next to no chemistry; I would not shed a tear if Steven Seagal came in and started using them for Judo practice. They're as wooden as he is.

Imagine that: you're two lesbians pretending to be men, one of you is on your period, and one of you can't decide whether they want to come or not so you just get angry that you're reminded of the fact
you're literally bleeding everywhere and making a goddamn mess and then you decide to leave your partner who is obviously horny unsatisfied on the bloody sheets so you can take a piss.
Yes, it's fucking ridiculous in retrospect. What was the author thinking? Who the fuck knows.

Hopefully you'll wash the goddamn bedsheets this time. Viktor's hand was still bloody and they never cleaned their clothes. Imagine the smell - like a hemorrhage, as the author put it. How quaint.
