Sticky Post: Where Do I Start Reading?
I’ve just found your work and there’s a lot of it, where do I start? Welcome to my website! First off, my name is Johannes (Yo-Han-Ehz) T. Evans. I’m a gay, disabled, transgender man originally from Chepstow in the South of Wales, and I now live in Bradford in West Yorkshire, though for several years before now I lived in Galway, in the west of the Irish Republic. I’ve been writing for years, and you might actually already be familiar with my work – I’ve been on Tumblr under various URLs (before using my own name, JohannesTEvans, I was at…

Pretty City Eyes
Slice-of-life short. A sailor has an encounter with a pretty man in a coffee house. Photo by Jose Antonio Gallego Vázquez via Pexels. Rated T, 1.5k, some M/M. A pirate from Lesbos throws himself eagerly at an anonymous handsome man — haughty Paris. On another night, on ninety-nine nights out of a hundred, Phil would never have seen him. Hyssop is a pirate town that bustles with people at all times, is always busy, and this haven is a favourite of his. They’re a few days’ sail from Barbados, which is always a bit too busy and a bit too hectic for Phil’s preferences — Hyssop…

What’s In A Uniform?: Imperial Attitudes Reflected in Starfleet’s Uniforms
Relationships with imperial attitudes reflected in uniform and costuming in Star Trek Originally published in An Injustice! Introduction Star Trek, Gene Roddenberry’s vision of a post-war and post-scarcity future filled to the brim with infinite diversity in infinite combinations, is often posited as a luxury-filled communist utopia in space. In the 24th century within the United Federation of Planets, the need for wages and money has broadly been eliminated; everyone can choose to embrace whatever education, craft, or career suits them; no one within the Federation’s bounds is denied shelter, food, or other necessities in exchange for labour or some other…

An Uncommon Betrothal: Chapter Eighteen
Alexos makes new friends at Larry’s dinner. Alexos Fox is of course quite sad when the long-time butler of his household, the man who all but raised him, retires. He is not at all prepared for the old man’s replacement: his exceedingly attractive and painfully tempting nephew, Harry Sutton. Alexos, overcome with feelings that are simply too much to repress, tries his best to avoid him, but it seems that Mr Sutton has more than his employment on his mind as he attends his new employer with keen and concentrated focus.

The Joy of Trans Creation
On the liberty of making unapologetically transgender art. Originally published in Prism & Pen. For me as a child, there was no real transgender representation around me. Transfeminine characters were exciting when I saw them, even though they were frequently the butt of jokes, highly sexualised, or the targets of violence from the narratives they appeared in. They were never afforded complex character arcs, and I can’t recall any trans women on my screens or on the pages of the books appearing for more than an episode or in small appearance before being killed or disappearing off-screen. And trans men?…

Two Scientists: Part Two
Erotic short. A mage takes an apothecary’s discount in exchange for a sexual favour. Photo by Marcus Lange via Pexels. Rated E, 3.7k, trans M/cis M. After staggering back to camp, Elek finds his party are eager to join in on the fun. Eggpreg, cum inflation and belly bulging, free use, implied gangbang, spitroasting, knotting, anal, come vomiting. All that fun stuff! Part One | | Part Two Getting back to camp that night is an absolute agony. Elek only just manages to belt his robe closed over his fucked-full belly, the bulge visible under his clothes — the under tunic he hadn’t even…

Two Scientists: Part One
Erotic short. A mage takes an apothecary’s discount in exchange for a sexual favour. Photo by Marcus Lange via Pexels. Rated E, 2.4k, trans M/snake-man M. Oviposition and implied cum inflation, mating plugs, size difference, relative inexperience, teasing and banter, lots of breeding kink. “Five hundred?” Elek repeats, and he feels the weight of his coin pouch in his hand, frowning at it for a moment as he tries to run the calculations in his head, tries to make numbers work that simply won’t — there are a few goblets in his pack, but they’re only bronze, and they won’t amount to more than…

He’s not handsome like this, because Aimé is rarely ever handsome, but Jean-Pierre adores to look on him nonetheless, loves these moments where he comes in after Aimé’s been painting and drinking wine by the bottle, and he is able to find him fast asleep, snoring quietly. Jean-Pierre undresses himself, drops the jumper of Aimé’s he’d been wearing onto the pile with the rest of…

The #MonstrousMay Challenge 2024!
It’s that time of year again — an art and writing prompt challenge for May. Monstrous May was first established in 2021, and I’ve arranged prompts for each May since — for each day of the month of May, there is a prompt involving and invoking the monstrous. Create art, sculpture, write fiction, poetry, make whatever you feel inspired to! Create for as many or as few days as inspire you, collaborate with friends, and have fun. Fan creations are just as welcome as original ones, and naturally, erotic and adult creations are as well as SFW ones! And of course, if you’re creating original…

If you’d like a leave a tip for your own request or someone else’s, my tip jar is here. Kai grits their teeth, gripping tightly at the sheets and pressing their shoulders back into the pillows as they look down at Ivan, look down at his focused face as he spreads their thighs further apart. It’s a horrible parody of the doctor’s office, their ankles in the stirrups, but Ivan’s expression is tender, and his fingers are gentle as they…

The Devouring Gaze in The First Omen
The horror of surveillance and surveilling in Arkasha Stevenson’s The First Omen (2024). Cap via ScreenAnarchy. I was saying the other night after we came out of the cinema that for the past few years, it really feels like I can trust horror films more than virtually any other film — horror films generally have a specific, presumed audience of older teens and adults who know what they’re in for, and subsequently, they don’t always fall in the same trap of overproduction that other films fall prey to. When I watch a lot of new horror releases, even though they are as much…

Crimson Peak: A Love Letter To Gothic Romance
Adoring thoughts on Guillermo Del Toro’s 2015 masterpiece. This review and bit of analysis is related to the talk I’ll be giving on Crimson Peak tomorrow, responses to misogyny and marginalisation in and around Gothic fiction, and how much of this social conservatism is mirrored in BookTok and modern retorts to problematic fiction. All proceeds from the Romancing the Gothic Goths for Breakfast talks go to charity, feeding school children free breakfasts! You can sign up for tickets here. Crimson Peak (2015) frustrated me when it came out, and often frustrates me today — I was desperately excited about it when it…

The Real Harm in “Harmful Content”
Exploring the true harm in “harmful content” and “problematic” media. Originally published in An Injustice! We live, unfortunately, in a world increasingly defined by people’s lack of media literacy. It isn’t as simple as people not reading, because people do — as schools and universities increasingly cut or allocate resources away from English literature, history, and other humanities, students are robbed of their opportunities to exercise their critical thinking stills; in the USA, “balanced literacy” strategies all but ensure many children don’t learn the vital skills to read text in the first place; many CinemaSins and Ending Explained- style videos are critiqued…

Addressing Common Arguments Against “Consuming Harmful Content”
Challenging purity culture in online spaces and their fears of “problematic media”. Constant and continuous arguments endure on social media about the dreaded and frightening spectre of problematic media — from television shows that supposedly “glorify” unhealthy relationships or “sexualise” and “excuse” abusive relationships; to erotica, adult books, and 18+ fanfiction that supposedly teach teenagers bad life lessons and impact their ethics; to anime and manga that surely must be the cause of child abuse the world over. I wrote an in-depth essay about the intellectual flaws in these reactionary assumptions, delving into their roots in lacking media literacy and rising anti-sex…

Sex pollen and dragons in rut, loads of come inflation, cervix penetration, gaping, size difference, sex in the air, belly bulging, D/s dynamics, overstimulation. Mild consent issues at first, but then Anso gets into it. The morning, even before the sun has fully risen, is hot and…

Finding Your Style, Part I: Shape & Silhouette
A deep dive into deciding on your own personal fashion and tailoring your clothes to fit. Introduction Before I start with the actual meat of this piece, I want to establish what this series of guides is not going to be. These guides are going to be about building and cultivating your wardrobe and accessories for you and your preferences. I have no interest in and will not be going into how to look good (or revoltingly, how to look “slimmer” or similar), how to be fashionable or trendy, or alternatively, how to look unique or dress differently to everybody you…

Erotic short. A new sailor is curious about the captain’s kept man. Photo by César Coni via Pexels. Just a short taste of something. 1.2k, rated E, M/M. Adapted from a TweetFic. Bernardt isn’t much of a talker. That was what Ruiz had said when he’d welcomed Pharon aboard — he’s been on pirate ships before, but Captain Des Voeux had picked him out in the tavern and brought him only recently aboard the Vista, and he’s still getting used to the space. It’s small and cramped and busy, and he’s missed it, work at sea — after he’d broken two of his fingers, he’d decided…

Woe, Boypussy Be Upon Ye: Transing Characters in Fanfic & Fanart
What’s the deal with envisioning your blorbos as transgender? Originally published in Prism & Pen. It’s been unbelievably positive for me as a trans dude, the change in approach to trans characters in fandom and subsequently in media in general, and I just wanted to write a bit about my experiences with the cultural shift and how positive it’s been for me personally. What’s weird about people in fandom confidently, nay casually, writing characters as transgender and just having them be a regular dude with a pussy or a regular girl with a dick is that like… I remember when…

My Top 6 Films of 2023
Just some recommendations for my favourite new releases of last year! Photo by Wyron A on Unsplash 2023 had a few knock-out hits as far as the cinema goes — obviously, people were very excited about the respective releases of Barbie and Oppenheimer, but my top films of the year were a bit different. One thing I do think unites a lot of these — and a trend I hope to see from more films in the next few years — is a trend toward more earnestness and sincerity in scripts and plot lines, and I’m hoping that trend continues! Without further ado, my top films of 2023:…
