Toxic Rocketshipping: But What Are James's Thoughts On Yaoi? (part two of three)

It might seem like the fic has calmed down, but it's just trying to lull you into a false sense of security.

Part one is here.

-O-o-O-o-O-

(Meowth's point of view)

James was in the sun, working on our plan.

It didn't work.

James gets freckles when he stays in the sun for a long time. I thought it was cute, but Jessie didn't.

"Get rid of those hideous spots," she said.

"I can't," James said.

"Then you'll just have to be uglier than usual." Jessie sounded like she didn't care about James's feelings.

James just stared at her. Then he ran into our room and closed the door.

"What's his problem?" Jessie said.

"His problem?! What's your problem? Why are you trying to hurt James like this? He never did anything to you. He cared for you all the time. You never even said 'thank you' once to him," I said.

"Thank him? That little bitch? I'd rather marry that twerp. At least he's not as ugly as James," Jessie said.

"I don't believe you," I yelled.

I went into our room. James was lying down. His hair was messy, his eyes were swollen from crying, and he had dark circles under his eyes. Tears ran down his face, over his freckles.

"What's wrong, James?" I knew he could be upset because of what Jessie said, but there might be a deep-seated reason for all this crying.

"I heard the whole conversation. Jessie hates me." James's voice shook as he spoke.

I didn't want to tell him the truth. But lying only makes things worse. So I just didn't say anything.

"I knew it," he said.

"I just don't know what's with Jessie. First, she buys you, now she abuses you," I said. "I don't know what to do to comfort or protect you."

"It's okay," James said.

We sat in an awkward silence for a long while.

Then James asked the question.

"Would you mind if I liked Pokémon?"

"You mean, 'like them' like them?"

"Yes. It's called Pokébestial."

"No. I wouldn't mind. Actually, I think I'd like you—I mean, like it, too."

Why?

"Okay," James said.

Like you? Why did I say that? I wasn't ready for James to know that. The only way he didn't hear that is if he couldn't think clearly.

Wait a minute—I just kinda mumbled it. That meant it was likely he didn't hear it.

Good, I thought.

-O-o-O-

(James's point of view)

I was out of love with Jessie, but I think my orientation got a little "off."

I think I'm Pokébestial.

The closer I got to Meowth, the more I liked him. At first, he was like an older brother, then he was like a twin brother, then we were like good friends, as in playmates. Then we started becoming like best friends.

Suddenly, I had a crush on Meowth.

What if he had a crush on me?! We'd be boyfriend and—

Hold up. Wait a minute. This'll have some yaoi in it.

That just didn't seem right, but I couldn't do what Jessie or anyone else would think is right. I had to tell Meowth.

But what would Meowth think? What if he was like everyone else? What if he didn't like it?

I was in for a real surprise.

-O-o-O-

Later that afternoon, we were sitting in our room, all alone.

Just us boys. No Jessie. She wouldn't want me until nighttime.

"James? I need to talk to you," Meowth said.

"Okay," I said. But I noticed something about his voice. It was soft, almost shy-sounding. He was also blushing a little, I could see it through his fur.

"Did you hear what I said about you being Pokébestial?" he asked.

"No. What did you say?" I asked. I started to get just a bit suspicious.

"I said that….I'd like it," Meowth said.

"Why?" I asked. I kind of knew why, but I just couldn't think clearly because of what it was.

"I like you."

"Like me, like me?"

"Yes."

Right then. I just found out my crush likes me too. What did I do? I did the only thing that was in my character to do.

I passed out.

-O-o-O-o-O-

Moral of the story: Being Pokébestial is probably better than being a sex slave for your coworker, though neither is recommended.

another crackfic dream i had

i was plagued by a ghostly apparition of james, haunting my bathroom and howling "why must you torment me with such trials and tribulations eeeehoohoohoo (james noises)"

and in the corner, there was a wraithlike meowth lamenting the fact that ghost james didn't have any feet for him to lick

The Prophet of Moltres or: What if James thought Moltres was Azor Ahai?

More Sim Team Rocket.

This sums up the household pretty well, I think. Jessie is randomly doing push-ups, Meowth is talking and doesn't care if the other two are listening (possibly having a Giovanni fantasy), and I don't even know what James is doing back there.

They survived the first night in the cursed Sim shack! Their reward is a proper toilet.

Not a comfortable toilet, mind, but at least they won't get attacked by squirrels when they need to pee.

Meowth, when you tell him to take a bath.

A casual family portrait of sorts. (Human Meowth finally got in the bath like I told him to.)

James nearly chopped off a finger making their breakfast salad, but he's not bothered by it.

Meanwhile, Jessie paints the Arnolfini Wedding.

"More like the Arnolfurry Wedding."

Meowth rudely spurns James's cooking to eat the leftover fruitcake even though HE KNOWS it'll give him an uncomfortable moodlet.

Nice to know his mild masochism carried over to the Sims world.

Kitty Meowth you get your butt out of that salad! James slaved over that counter for five whole minutes to make that!

He actually put that in his mouth.

"Waste not, want not."

"DO NOT WANT," says Jessie of the cat butt salad.

Meowth plays guitar to Meowth. Nice to see him bonding with himself.

The bees were in a bad mood that day.

Poor James.

James and Meowth take turns pushing each other on the swings.

They look so happy.

Meowth kept giving this look at James's butt. If they get together in the Sims, at least they'll be the same species.

It's not that getting off to whatever creepy shit floats your boat is bad, per se. What becomes dangerous is when that inevitably becomes no longer enough to get you off and you start bringing it into the real world.Underage girls? Boring unless they're in pain and crying. Women with tits the size of their heads? No bruises, no interest. Middle schoolers? Too old, yawnn. Grown men? Gotta show us the blood. Etc etc etc. Things don't happen in a vacuum. The more you acclimate yourself to it the more extreme shit you start needing in order to get off.

Okay? Source?? This is literally recycled fearmongering from the right!!! How do you not see it???

A visiting cop in my 5th grade class tried to tell me that if you play violent video games, eventually it will no longer be enough, and you'll want to start killing people in real life. She had this whole shitty anecdote of a boy who went on a real killing spree after learning how to kill from video games. Have we seen an actual increase in real violent crime after DOOM the way the right predicted? No!! In fact, as video games get more graphic and more violent, violence in real life actually goes down!!! Is that the trend we should expect if what you say is true?

This is why evangelical christians want to ban porn outright, because they think it's "too dangerous". Do you think that every sexual being is a ticking timebomb who eventually can't get off anymore because their wife has become "too boring" or the porn they're watching has become "too tepid"?? Sure, eventually it's nice to spice things up so you can keep getting aroused, but most people just kind of...get aroused on their own? Like, if you have a libido at all, eventually you just get aroused again overtime, and you won't need more and more extreme shit, because you just get horny again naturally. Like, I feel like that's what's most common???

Like, where do you think it stops??? Do you think eventually abusers will need to seek even more extreme abuse until even real mass genocide is no longer enough??? Do you think they won't stop until they're either dead or dying????? Do you realize how this actually makes you sound????????

How fucking badly do you think of people that masterbating to cartoons will eventually lead to a world full of mass child molesters and murderers?? You're literally no different from that cop who tried to guilt me into giving up my favorite hobby because enjoying fictional murder will eventually no longer be enough, despite the fact that I actually enjoy murder more BECAUSE I know it's not real!!

You're actually a lowlife if you think this badly of people, to think that the sheer horribleness of the action is what's appealing to people with no regards to how real it actually is. Get off your fake fucking high horse and stop shaming people for a made up slippery slope invented by people who think Donald Trump is the second coming of Christ. Fucking hell.
