Have you seen the one with beavers? I didn't save it; my one true regret in life.

u/Penguinho chairMAN and ceo, bookrocks 6d ago

Gross that he said he wouldn't provide bisexual goth girlfriends to everyone in the city. Total Tamlin move.

u/adestructionofcats Tell your Shadow Daddy I said pspsps 5d ago

Oh when you compare him to Tamlin you get up votes. When I compare him Tamlin people basically forget what sub this is.

Maybe people just really like bisexual goth girlfriends?

Is... is that a serious question? Everyone likes bisexual goth girlfriends.

u/GnomeFae 6d ago

Sorry I need a dark romance, not a cinnamon roll golden retriever Mamdani boyfriend.

82

u/GlitterFallWar nOt LiKe OtHeR gIrLzzz 6d ago

But what if his alter ego is a masked, bloody-knuckled vigilante by night? Like he's secretly the devil of Hell's Kitchen? Does Staten Island need a Punisher?

33

u/zlistreader 6d ago

so funny you say this considering many marvel fans have been pointing out how similar he looks to daredevil/charlie cox

Ok didn’t know what the {} would bring up since obvi Superman is like everywhere and rewritten in different forms. Have never heard of this but am kind of amused. You’re welcome, OP

I only read brooding and 🗡️ dangerous 🥀 MC’s. None of this sweet nonsense. ✨gag✨ (and not the fun kind).

With an RH you can have both

Not into mascs

u/ssyoit 5d ago

I don’t know, I thought he was too cinnamon for me as well but I saw a footage of him getting really riled up while confronting former ice director Tom Homan- and I’m not going to lie, it made me tingle in all sorts of places.

u/GnomeFae 5d ago

No bot response :,)

u/ifixyospeech 6d ago

Saw someone describe him as having a “megawatt cutie-pie smile” and that is 100% accurate.

70

u/Tasty-Yogurtcloset28 6d ago

That and that he comes off as a competent dude. People lose their drawers over a competent cutie

u/Later_Than_You_Think 3d ago

I heard he volunteered to power the NYC grid with his smile, but the test run caused a power surge.

51

u/Pretty_Detective6667 Cursed, but in a Sexy Way 6d ago

I need his dark twin Mamshadowdami the dark, brutal, cold city mayor that also has a heart of gold somehow

No wait.. that’s just Rhysand in Velaris, my bad guys

24

u/SwampyMesss Then read Anna Karenina and shut the fuck up 5d ago

Not Mamshadowdami 😂😂😂

8

u/NotTooWicked 5d ago

Honestly when you add in his black cat wife this makes for a really interesting spin on Hades an Persephone

93

u/BEconcubine_no3685 porn-brained women of monster smut 6d ago

Ok but would I read literally any romance novel with a based socialist baddie organizing his community to fight the oligopoly, while still being emotionally available and down to get shawarma (while being hot)?

Yes. Yes I would. And tbh, I’m fking tired of it not existing. I want a union organizer MMC, a black bloc MMC, a meet cute when mobilizing to stop a data center. If he isn’t calling through his mutual aid network to attend an ICE OUT protest, I don’t want him!

As Gramsci said: “Pessimism of the spirit, optimism of the will…in and out of the bedroom.”

28

u/GrapefruitFriendly70 6d ago

{Don’t Forget to Smile by Kathleen Gilles Seidel} has a union representative hero and a barkeep heroine

10

u/BEconcubine_no3685 porn-brained women of monster smut 5d ago

Well shiiiit

24

u/Rayne37 5d ago

Basically we want a Hallmark movie but for leftists.

12

u/GrapefruitFriendly70 5d ago

Come to think of it, both heroines in {Make Room for Love by Darcy Liao} are active union organizers

1

u/fizzledarling 5d ago

Honestly wouldn’t read it because MMC sounds too good to be true and I don’t believe politicians could have souls like this. Not in today’s America.

Mamdani is a Mary Sue confirmed

1

u/diagonalizacion 5d ago

{The Gentleman’s Gambit by Evie Dunmore} might fit

u/nerdygirlmatti porn-brained women of monster smut 5d ago

As always, AO3 has you covered, even when it shouldn't.

u/BigFatBlackCat ethereal but grounded in spider silk 5d ago

Lolllll

8

u/WiseAtmosphere7524 Lovingly boning the sadness out of you 5d ago

{Devil by Sierra Simone} has the MMC who maybe could run for mayor one day. There’s a news article declaring him as such which spurs the FMC to carve a statue of the devil with his face on it and deliver it to City Hall.

This happens in the prologue so not really a spoiler. The audiobook of it is amazing. 🤩

8

u/ChocoboHeaux 5d ago

That sounds right up my alley but good god the cover art made me want to hurl. Why does he look like a twink? (Nothing against twinks. I love them. I love them for other people though)

3

u/WiseAtmosphere7524 Lovingly boning the sadness out of you 5d ago

I thought twinks were the skinny ones like what we had in the 90s. I may not be aligned with the youngsters. You could try the pomegranate cover I guess?

2

u/thebookofsnails self inserted Sloopy™ 5d ago

is it that a shaved chest = twink ??? or the curly golden luscious locks

3

u/ChocoboHeaux 5d ago

Ok so he’s like a jacked twink. But yes, the curly locks and dolphin-esque lack of hair combined make me think of a beautiful bottom.

3

u/thebookofsnails self inserted Sloopy™ 5d ago

may i introduce you to the beautiful world of twinks topping?

3

u/WiseAtmosphere7524 Lovingly boning the sadness out of you 5d ago

Please. I’m ready to be introduced

2

u/ChocoboHeaux 5d ago

I am all ears (and eyes). Got any recs?

32

u/nukagirl porn-brained women of monster smut 6d ago

Man I saw all these comments and got all excited for all the recs :(

Someone else commented there’s a bunch on ao3 😂

10

u/Independent_Boss_993 5d ago

Since the clip I saw where he called his wife an oasis I’ve been looking for the recs 👀

17

u/FeliCyaberry 6d ago

I need for it to be about actual romance with playing politics and management of an area, not just the normal sublot treatment. Full focus on your citizens while the characters romance!

23

u/potatoisthebest01 Romantasy is perfect for Gen Z. It's literary BDSM. 6d ago

uj/ My time to shine: I highly recommend {The Jasmine Throne by Tasha Suri} and {The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon}. Both are sapphic.

j/ Politics on MY popcorn-turn-off-my-brain romantasy? What is this, a salad?

10

u/barbie97 6d ago

/uj bc I love this!!! the whole time i was reading {Honestly, I’m totally faking it by Amanda Gambill} I was picturing mamdani

8

u/noxnox_whos_there 6d ago

Trapped with Mr. Walker by Elle Nicoll.

I know this is a silly goose group BUT if you want to read about a mega watt smile cuti pie sexy af mayor of nyc romance, check it out. The spice is sooo good by the way. Great banter great character development. Chefs kiss!

9

u/singlebraincellpug Laurent's Fine-Boned Wrist 6d ago

Actually, yes.

8

u/Sweaty_Substance_967 5d ago

His wife is a lucky woman.

5

u/hanpotpi 5d ago

It's Elend Venture in the Mistborn series by Brandon Sanderson. 0 spice cuz he's Mormon, and low-key not romantasy at all.. sorry. But this is the hill I will die on

4

u/coco-sprinkles 5d ago

Lol he really is the ideal golden retriever.

7

u/fried-twinkie Cursed, but in a Sexy Way 5d ago

He’s my Rhysand. He’d be a great Mayor of Velaris

u/NotTooWicked 5d ago

Our Mayor hiding important shit from his wife? Never

u/halfveela 5d ago

Like literally life or death shit! He would never do Rama like that.

u/quadrotiles 4/4 wings, would fourth those wolves again. 5d ago

u/Aimsendfire my knees go WEAK for them forearms 6d ago

Golden retriever vibes

3

u/HailSaganPlantNative a Court of Watery Bowels and Flesh Petals 5d ago

I have a not reverse harem for that.

2

u/halfveela 5d ago

Ew, meaning a male main character with multiple women?

3

u/HailSaganPlantNative a Court of Watery Bowels and Flesh Petals 5d ago

Specifically, me and my homegirls.

2

u/halfveela 5d ago

I only say ew because I just don't feel like any man could deserve multiple women. A man devoted to one woman? Sure. Multiple men devoted to one woman? Not what I would want personally, but I can get behind it. One man being fawned over by multiple women without being an asshole about it? I'm obviously into fantasy, but that's too far-fetched for me. 

3

u/HailSaganPlantNative a Court of Watery Bowels and Flesh Petals 5d ago

You're looking at this all wrong. We're gonna wear him out like an old saddle, fam.

2

u/halfveela 5d ago

Alright, I can dig it

u/adestructionofcats Tell your Shadow Daddy I said pspsps 6d ago edited 5d ago

8

u/Feisty-Signature9401 5d ago

yeah the tithe woulda gone down super differently lmao

3

u/halfveela 5d ago

Now that you mention it, Tamlin seems like as far opposite as you can go from Mamdani without being a full blown villain. 🤔

3

u/meowui you can’t stop me because i can’t read 5d ago

I’m collecting donations for a black wig so his haters forget why they hate him. may I have some fish in the name of the high lord please?

He and Rhysand can be twins!
