I'm writing a story where telepathy is real. And I've hit a scene where I want the main POV character to have an imaginary discussion inside his head with another character, making it clear that this particular case *isn't* telepathy?

FWIW, the imagined character is currently in a completely different country, travelling with a character who entirely could pull off some never-seen-before feat of magic. Also my POV character has no active telepathic powers or magic of his own, but he's had several telepathic conversations with people who do.

So obviously, Senku, Taiju and the American contingent all kept thinking for ~3,700 years. But, after Senku discovered the revival fluid, he stopped pouring nitric acid on random statues. So everyone else who was revived may have been thinking all that time. Any guesses for who?

I reckon Ryusui, too greedy to give into sleep, and Francois, the perfect butler.

Not sure if this is all entirely students, a couple I think I recognise from reviews, but thought others might like!

GDP: We Really Don’t Know How Good We Have It—Asterisk

As someone who has used Madison's GDP statistics in the past, I think the points in here are valid but I also think the effort to measure changes is valuable - historical GDP statistics may be meaningless between 1 CE and 2011, but the comparison between 1 CE and 600 AD, or how the economic "weight" of continents changed with the development of industrialisation in Europe.

My daughter is watching the anime with her Dad and wants her next birthday party to be Leviathian-themed - any ideas?

I had a search online and couldn't find any steampunk themed venues nearby, so would need to decorate.

I'm writing a fic in which the villain is an original character, a male deity possessing a human woman's body. The POV character's view of the villain's gender is unstable, he tends to think of them as "him" when thinking of the deity and "her" when thinking of the OC's body (and of course "her" when thinking of the original person who was possessed). He's not going to ask "what are your pronouns?" for various reasons.

Various characters address the deity using feminine terms like "Lady", and the deity doesn't object, but there's no clue as to how the deity is understanding those terms.

For what it's worth, from my perspective, the deity still thinks of themselves as male, but is enjoyin

I'm writing this smut where two characters are having bdsm sex, and about halfway through the one who is subbing switches things around so she's on top. How to tag the switch?

If it matters, it's F/F and it's dub-con at best, there's no kink negotiation or anything sane. They both enjoy it anyway.

I've written this crack fic with a MC who in canon is a bit of an airhead but is one of the good guys. The foundation of my crack conceit is that under certain circumstances, which never occurred in canon, her dark side comes out.

I've tried to write her in my fic as canon-compliant as I can before the circumstances happen, and to keep the airheadedness and specific speech characteristics afterwards. Apart from speech characteristics like her threatening to cut off another character's balls without anaesthetics of course.

Do I tag as out-of-character? I've already tagged "dark characters" and hinted in the summary that she's not nice.

I'm writing a fanfic involving an American character, she's about 19, from a wealthy family, the canon doesn't specify what state she's from but California seems like a reasonable guess.

Would she refer to her knickers as knickers or by some other word? And if so, what?

I've written a chapter where two characters have consensual sex, but it's rather messy. They discuss boundaries up front but one of them is pretty inexperienced, and the other ignores his own feelings of unease about one act and thus has a panic attack. Despite that they work through things and the chapter ends with them both happy.

Also the rest of the sex is good but definitely imperfect. E.g. complaints about a sore jaw.

How to tag? I thought of "undernegogiated kink" but they did discuss the exact act.
