#Stick to candles and soap

[teaboot]

As a number of gift giving holidays are coming up I find myself remembering the year my estranged father, who had spent the first fifteen or so years of my life telling me that nobody cared what I had to say and everything I did was irredeemably obnoxious, made the attempt to smooth things over and reconnect by gifting me with a novelty coffee mug that had emblazoned across the front in goofy text, "How may I annoy you today?".

At the point of opening this gift, I remember I stared at it for a rather uncomfortably long time before carefully carrying it outside and smashing it to pieces in the driveway.

So please know, if you are ever in need of an inoffensive and acceptable gift of any kind, you usually can't go wrong with a candle

just mark & his hyperfem gf *ੈ✩‧₊˚

Originally you open up your lace trimmed windows with the intent of cooling off your too hot room. Truly you’re not expecting your alien boyfriend to stoop his way inside, achey and tired from a long day of being Invincible.

He loves your room, a girlish haze that he sometimes feels he shouldn’t be allowed to see. Like it’s some sort of sanctuary that’s only meant for those to indulge in their girlish whims, like a set for Sofia Coppola and not your dorky boyfriend. You’ve got a scented candle going, the light breeze from the window caressing the flame into making dancing shadows across the pastel walls, frilly lingerie peeking from the hem of your hamper, half closed glittery nail polish sitting next to various makeup items on your vanity. He finds it all to be so incredibly charming, his sweet girl.

He can feel its energizing effects as soon as he splays out across the cutesy rug you got from the mall, cinnamoroll? or something…he doesn’t remember, which he usually would, trust him! He just gets his ass kicked a lot, forgive him. “You shouldn’t leave your window open..creeps could get in.” He grumbles into the carpet, slightly muffled. “Mhm, tell me about it.” You reply casually, admiring the way his back looks enveloped by the fabric of his suit. He doesn’t mean to laugh, but he does anyways. That sweet airy noise that always seems to unwilling escape him in your presence. “‘m gonna shower.” He murmurs trudging into the adjoined bathroom, it’s really just another spot of heaven for him to enjoy and admire.

He comes out in your frilly bathrobe, hair flat and sticking to his forehead and nape, smelling like all your fancy soaps and scrubs. “Baby, seriously? My robe?” You murmur with a smack of your lips, he shrugs. The bathrobe eventually is abandoned in favor for boxers, he crawls over to you, yanking you by your ankles to hold you. Flopping on top of you with a huff like he’s a cute little puppy (he is) and not 210. “Ugh, Mark—baby you’re heavy c’mon.” You coo in an effort to charm him into getting the hell off, too bad cause you feel him shift, getting comfy on top of your boobs, he swears he sleeps better with ‘em. You sigh accepting defeat rubbing his strong back, getting in between his shoulder blades, lightly running your acrylics over his skin till he gets chills. His thumb is lightly tracing the lace trim of your panties, and the skin of your hipbone. He couldn’t be more content, he smells like you, you smell like you, things really couldn’t get better. He leans up to smother you with warm kisses, “I love you.” he murmurs in between slotting your mouthes together. He’s just so happy to be in your arms tonight.

heyo :3 ‘s been a while, i just think mark would be the best cuddle buddy credit to @adornedwithlight for the lovely banners ♡ constructive criticism welcome, and apologies for any errors ^_^

> ate batteries and coins as a kid (not really “ate”, more so sucked on them like pacifiers).

> almost always have at least three visible burns, cuts or bruises on my left hand; never on my right (I am right-handed).

> I have a tiger build-a-bear that my uncle gave me when I was less than a year old. He is unnamed.

> might have tinnitus

> built a semi-functional coffee machine at 14 using two broken whiteboards, a fidget spinner, a rubik’s cube and a (stolen) arduino set.

simon’s reactions to mail order bride finding another cat and bringing it home

mail-order bride

there's a ruckus outside. clattering inside of the rubbish bins, rattling the metal of them. and maybe it could've just been a wild animal, something tearing apart the garbage bags and making a mess, but then there were a few cries, squeaks of terror that were too unnerving to ignore. a cry of distress that wouldn't allow for a good night's rest.

simon throws the back door open. there's a few soldiers milling about, leaning against the outside of the mess hall and barracks as they have a smoke or play some cards. some of them are playing games under the lights, kicking around footballs for a laugh. but he hears it, right around the corner, little eeps and have his neck craning as he turns into the alleyway behind his office.

there's a set of bins there that reek. but he can see the rustle of plastic moving, and when he picks up the top bag and clicks his flashlight on, he's met with fierce hisses of a little orange tabby kitten, with red around her eyes and oil sticking to her fur.

"fuckin' christ," simon mutters, sucking on his teeth. he doesn't know why he's out here. normally, the sounds of it wouldn't even force him to blink twice, but he couldn't help himself, he had to follow it. he looks over his shoulder for a moment, debating, but his mind is already made up.

he thinks of you. his pretty little wife, probably curled up on the couch at home with your candles lit and something warm in the oven. the cat is probably snoozing on one of her shelves, one of her arms hanging over the edge and her little face squished into the cushions he had installed on top of them recently. he thinks of your pretty face and your glowing smile, and he hears your voice in his head as he looks back down into the bin and makes eye contact with the mangy little thing again.

he reaches down and grabs it by the scruff of its neck, lifting it up. her little paws spread, showing her tiny claws, and he sighs, holding it out in front of him as he makes his way back to the barracks.

"what in the living fuck is that, LT?" a bubbly voice laughs. simon continues to hold the kitten out at arms length, his boots heavy as he heads towards the washrooms.

"wot the fuck does it look like, sergeant?" simon snaps. johnny picks up his pace so he can walk beside him, laughing as he smacks simon the back of his vest. simon pushes the door open, dropping the kitten into the sink.

it continues to cry and yip at him. he turns the water on, reaching over for a bottle of dish soap and squeezing it until it splatters against the kitten's back. johnny watches from the doorway as simon tries to scrub the little thing clean, cursing at it all the way as he tries to get all the gunk off of it.

"stop fuckin' squirmin'," simon huffs. "ow! oi! ya lil' shit!"

when simon turns the water off, the kitten is shaking in the sink. simon looks around for something to dry it with, and when he finds nothing, he turns to look at johnny.

"give me your shirt," simon demands. johnny stands up straight.

"what?"

"did i fuckin' stutter? give me y'r bloody shirt, sergeant."

"but! but tha's--"

"an order," simon barks. "give it ta me."

johnny rolls his eyes, gripping his shirt from the back collar and pulling it over his head before tossing it at his lieutenant. simon catches it, picking up the kitten and wrapping it in johnny's shirt before tucking it into the crook of his arm.

"'m goin' 'ome. tell price i'll be back in a few days."

"y'r goin' home? it's late, and we--"

"goodnight, johnny."

you jolt awake when you hear the front door. you rub your eyes, sitting up in bed, but you relax a little when you hear the sound of simon's boots in the living room dropping by the door. you get out of bed, putting your slippers on. when you flick the lamp on, simon is standing in the doorway of the bedroom, in full gear and his skull mask as he looms there, his head nearly hitting the top of the threshold.

"simon?" you croak softly. "i...i thought you weren't gonna be home for a few days."

he's holding something, a ball of bundled-up fabric, and you sniffle as you come closer.

"what is it?" you ask. "is something wrong?"

and then you hear it. the softest little chirp, a squeak coming from his arms. you lean over a little, reaching over and pulling back the fabric, and you let out a little gasp as you see two little yellow eyes blinking up at you, surrounded by tuffs of wet and wild orange fur.

"oh! simon!" you breathe, putting a hand to your chest. "wha...w-what--"

"was in the rubbish," simon mutters, clearing his throat. "i couldn't..."

you look up at him. you can only see his eyes, dark with eye-black smudged save for his blonde lashes, and you soften when you see the way he's looking down. he's frowning, but you know he isn't upset. simon cares, more than he'd like to admit, and you reach up with one delicate hand and touch the skull gently, stroking the cheek of it.

"i know," you say softly, smiling up at him. simon sighs, a little shakily, you notice, and you pass your thumb over where his lips would be before taking the bundle from his arms. you hear what simon doesn't say, understand what he's having difficult accepting, the things that aren't possible for him anymore, the things he has to do to keep himself sane now that there's a voice in his head that always sounds just like yours.

helpless, sweet little kitten, with claws like knives and a temper unlike that of simon's. the thoughts that went through his head, you know them, even if he doesn't tell you. when he saw this little thing, when he saw those big eyes.

i couldn't leave her behind.

no. he couldn't.

[whateveriwant]

might I request how tf 141 tries to turn you on maybe? Sorry kind of a weird request you don’t have to do it if you don’t want to ;-;

Not a weird request at all, anon! Hope you enjoy! 18+ only, GN!Reader

Price

Three words: full body massage

That man loves to get his hands on you, and it doesn’t even have to be sexual in nature, honestly. Any opportunity to touch you, to caress you, to help ease the tension from your body, he’ll gladly take it (and if afterwards you’ll let him ease himself into you, well, that’s just an added bonus 😉)

He might use special rollers or electric massagers sometimes, but mostly he just sticks to those big, strong hands of his

He'll start by slicking up his palms with some oil, warming it up before he applies it to your skin

Beginning with your shoulders, he’ll slowly work his way down your body, paying special attention to the areas you need most targeted

Aside from those tender spots, he’ll also be sure to focus on a few of your more erogenous zones, namely your thighs and your ass (he's an ass man for sure)

By the time he's finished, you're all supple and pliant before him, but there’s something else too – a sort of warm, fluttery feeling in your gut

Luckily, he knows just the remedy for that sensation. And oh! Would you look at that? You're already in his favorite position: prone

Ghost

We all know he tends to be a man of few words, and this applies to every environment he finds himself in

…At least, every environment outside the bedroom, that is

Because when he's in the mood, you best hold on tight to your pants if you don't want them flying off from how he talks to you (but, I guess, your pants coming off is his end goal anyway)

You'll just be going about your day, minding your business, when you'll get a call from him while he’s “busy” at work

He'll start off casual at first, inquiring about your day, your plans for the night, etc., but it won't take long for the conversation to steer to the real reason for his call: to describe the way he's going to fuck you when he gets home

He'll go into excruciating, toe curling detail about all the things he's going to do to you; just how good he’s going to fuck you until you forget your own name

I hope you're not in public when you take his call, otherwise you better have the poker face of a lifetime if you don't want to make a scene in front of several dozens of witnesses

Gaz

He's a big romantic at heart, so rather than just going straight for the bedroom, he'll slowly work his way up to it over the course of the evening

First, he'll treat you to a nice dinner – either by cooking it himself or by taking you to that fancy restaurant you love but think is much too expensive for every day dining

Beneath dimmed, romantic lighting, together you'll share a delicious meal, a glass or two of wine, and of course a tasty dessert to cap it all off

The conversation will be light and pleasant (nothing unbecoming whatsoever), but while he might not outright voice the plans he has for you later in the night, that look he keeps giving you from across the table speaks volumes

When you’ve finished your meal and gradually made your way back home/to the bedroom, even then he still isn't done buttering you up just yet

He'll put on some slow music, maybe light a couple candles to really set the mood, even draw you both a bath if you're feeling up to it

Once he does finally take you to bed, it'll be a seamless transition from an evening overflowing with desire and passion

Soap

‘Subtlety’ is not really a word in his vocabulary, so most of the time when he's horny, he's just turning to you and asking if you want to fuck

However, sometimes when you need a little more build up than that, he has a few tried and true methods he knows will work you up

He'll change so that he’s walking around your flat wearing a pair of gray sweatpants. Wearing only a pair of gray sweatpants, mind you

Whilst wearing said sweatpants, he'll proceed to stretch and flex around you, showing off all those muscles he knows you love, as well as highlighting a few other assets he knows drives you crazy (i.e. bulge printtttt 😍)

He'll then get really touchy with you, starting innocent at first – brushing an eyelash from your cheek, straightening the neck of your shirt – before he gets more and more brazen with his petting

And when he's real close like that, leaning right into your ear, he’ll mutter soft praises to you: telling you how beautiful you look, how good you smell, how soft your skin is where he’s touching just there

By the time he finally goes to ask if you want to have sex, he doesn't even get the words out before you're jumping him like a wild animal. All according to plan…

Everyday Ways I Honour Aphrodite

(NSFW warning)

🌹Roses, roses, roses. Rose soap, rose lip balm, rose hand cream, rose lotion, rose perfume, rose oil on my pillow before falling asleep, rose candles, rose incense, roses in my garden, rosewater toner, rose face mist, rose shower gel, dried roses in the bath... Just roses everywhere you can fit them.

🌹Reading romantic books and poetry, watching romance films

🌹 Reading books and poetry about Aphrodite

🌹Making myself feel beautiful with pretty jewellery and makeup. Even just a swipe of tinted lip balm boosts my confidence (I use French Girl Rose Noir). I try to wear at least a little bit of makeup or jewellery daily, even if it's just a pair of studs or a subtle lipstick

🌹 Even if I'm just staying at home all day I'll spray perfume and put on jewellery and do lipstick just to feel sensual while I'm lounging around playing Animal Crossing (currently wearing a comfy embroidered nightie, small gold hoops, a pretty bracelet and a little bit of YSL Orange Perfecto lipstick as I write this)

🌹 Embracing my sensuality. Swaying my hips, feeling the softness of my body, dancing freely, engaging in self-pleasure, taking nudes, trying to unlearn the shame associated with sexuality from my upbringing. I don't watch porn often as I find most of it unhealthy and misogynistic (I only like this one random Japanese couple's channel and some vintage and Korean softcore), but I enjoy toys (my favourite is the rose), erotic literature, erotic film, audio porn (usually in other languages because I find a lot of dirty talk just makes me cringe but I still get enjoyment out of hearing little moans and silky low voices so I get that and avoid secondhand embarrassment from bad dirty talk by listening to it in languages I don't understand), and erotic fine art.

🌹 I try to get really comfortable when I'm engaged in self love. Lipstick and perfume on, hair styled, lingerie or nightie that makes me feel sexy, a candle lit or rose, ylang ylang and jasmine oil in my diffuser, soft music playing. Then I'll position myself comfortably, and stroke my thighs, tease my nipples, squeeze my breasts, lick my juices off my fingers and use it like a lipstick, painting my lips and nipples or using it to lightly lubricate my clitoris. Running my hands all over my belly, thighs and breasts, experimenting with different types of pressure and stimulation. Just luxuriating in the sensual feelings I can bring to my beautiful female body.

🌹 Wearing jewellery with seashells, pearls, emerald, ruby, bronze, copper, gold, jade, garnet and iridescent beads

🌹 Enjoying apples, honey, figs, pomegranates, strawberries, raspberries, olives, lettuce, rosewater and chocolate. I like buying Guylian chocolates as they're seashell shaped, but any chocolate will do (my favourite chocolate bar to buy is white chocolate with strawberries). I also like foods that you can taste the rosewater in like rose macarons and Turkish delight.

🌹 Making foods with ingredients she likes, like honey cakes, Persian rose love spell cookies, rosewater nougat, Persian love cake, baklava, cornes de gazelle, mhencha, etc... I mostly stick to Mediterranean, North African, Arab and Persian recipes, as they commonly use ingredients like rosewater, honey, pomegranates, and figs.

🌹 Carrying rose quartz in my pocket and keeping rose quartz under my pillow

🌹 I use a rose quartz roller to massage oil into my face

🌹 I keep a mini Venus de Milo statue and a swan trinket box on my bedside table

🌹 Drinking a drink made up of honey, cinnamon, milk and hot water at night to relax

🌹 Wearing pretty lingerie under my clothes, even if it's a basic outfit

🌹 I often fall asleep to the sound of ocean waves

🌹 Gold highlighter swept on my cheeks and body shimmer on my collarbones, reflecting light like sun rays on the ocean

🌹 Doing little offerings, like spritzing her statue with perfume, or offering up a portion of food I'm eating that I think she'd like

🌹 Lighting incense in scents like myrrh, frankincense, rose, vanilla, cinnamon, ginger and jasmine

🌹 Drawing myself relaxing baths with fragrant oils and salts

🌹 Reading hymns, Sappho's poetry, and listening to Athanati Afroditi

🌹 Listening to music that's romantic or sensual (this is my playlist)

🌹 Carrying a hand mirror and admiring myself as I check my makeup

🌹 Adding honey to tea

🌹 Writing letters and poetry about love and beauty

🌹Admiring women I find beautiful without jealousy or resentment, just appreciation

🌹Using these emojis: 🌹🦢🌊🪞🍎❤️💘💗💕💋🕊️🫒💄

🌹 Wearing pink, red, aqua, and seafoam green

🌹 Being consistent in self care. No matter how low my spoons are, unless I'm so dog-tired I end up falling asleep on the couch at 8pm, I force myself to do my evening skincare routine - cleansing, toning, eye cream, moisturiser, oil. And I always feel better for it even if I was exhausted before. Much smaller but I'm also consistent in oiling the ends of my hair daily and spraying perfume before bed. And I keep up with getting my hair done and brows waxed every three months without fail.

🌹 Doing exercises that make me feel sensual. I'm really lazy tbh but I push myself because I know Aphrodite would want me to take care of my body. I pick exercises that make me feel good and desirable, like yoga flow, belly dance, and exercises that target my womanly attributes.

🌹 Giving compliments!

🌹 Doing a big self care day every Friday (the day associated with her). Hot oil hair treatment, foot soak and exfoliation, removing old nail polish and buffing and filing nails, face mask, teeth whitening....

🌹 Going to the pond in winter and admiring the swans

🌹 Going to an art gallery in my city just to look at the painting Venus and Cupid (Day) by Fragonard

🌹 Sleeping on silk sheets as they feel sensual (they're also good for your hair and skin)

🌹 Making my own diffusers and cosmetics from natural, aphrodisiac products. Homemade bath salt with rose petals and pink salt, homemade lip mask with olive oil and rose oil, and adding oil of rose, jasmine, sandalwood, and cinnamon to a diffuser as I find these scents stimulating and sensual.

🌹 And of course, thanking Lady Aphrodite every day.

the water is hot—much too hot for skin, you’re well aware, but this is your everything shower, so there’s no use in not having scaldingly warm water rain down on you. rafe’s bathroom is a mess of your products—a honey scented candle flickering on the sink counter, your soaps and scrubs along the tub. the entire place smells like vanilla and coconut, smells like you. 

you just need to finish washing your hair and give yourself one last soapy rinse before you can step out and finish up—all that’s left is lotioning up and your skincare. 

but it’s hard to want to leave when it’s so warm, and you feel so clean, and it’s so cold outside, colder still without the warmth of your boyfriend, who is out and about for the day.

so you decide to cherish this time, letting your head run under the showerhead and basking in the feeling. you only get another thirty seconds before the door opens. 

“wha—hey!” you yell out, thinking maybe sarah came in, since sometimes she does that when wheezie’s using their bathroom, and she’s only caught you and rafe showering together twice so far.

“shut up. it’s me.” your boyfriend’s sweet as always, walking in and closing the door behind him.

“rafe, i’m showering,” you start, worried for some reason that he’s gonna yank you out.

“yeah, i can tell. m’not blind, kid.” you hear him settle—he’s probably taking a seat, getting comfortable. “you won’t believe what barry said today-”

you poke your head out from the side of the curtain. rafe’s sitting on the toilet, staring up at you.

“get out!” 

“no. i gotta tell you what barry did.” he makes himself comfortable, sniffing the candle and then starting his story. you aren’t surprised at his antics anymore, there’s no privacy between you two anyways. you go back, finishing your hair wash while listening. 

“jesus, it’s fuckin’ hot in here. how do you still have skin?” 

“this is the perfect temperature,” you sigh, reaching for your body wash. rafe can’t see much through the curtain—it’s not sheer in any way, but he can make out your shadow from the other end, hands running over your body while you wash away the suds, the shape of your face under the showerhead. 

he shouldn’t have come in here.

“alright, i’m goin’. finish up.” you poke your head back, sticking your tongue out at him.

“already? what happened to the rest of your story?” 

“you told me to get out, remember?” you pout.

“was just kidding. i like this.”

“if i stay in here m’coming in there with you.” 

“promise?”

Can you do Hector fort x reader?

Something like where reader and him go shopping and it’s all chaotic and cute. At the end of day he’s all exhausted and just lays down on the bed and doesn’t want to do this ever again 💕

"We were just going to buy some soap"

→ Pairing: Hector Fort X fem!reader

→ Warning: Mention of Reader. Fluff, confort.

→ Author's note: I'M ALREADY CRAZY WITHOUT BARCELONA GAMES 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

And sorry if there are mistakes, English is not my language.I hope this is what you asked for!

It was supposed to be quick.

Thirty minutes at most, just to buy a few things for the apartment. Soap, laundry detergent, maybe a new toilet brush, and at most one or two extra items that they really needed. But it was hard to stick to any plan when she was around with that gleam in her eye that turned any mundane outing into some kind of epic quest.

And there he was, at the third market of the day, pushing an already full cart, while trying to understand how someone could spend twenty minutes choosing between two types of clothes pegs.

“This one smells like strawberries, Héctor. Strawberry.”

He raised an eyebrow, showing no reaction.

“Are we going to hang out the clothes or do aromatherapy?”

“Life is made up of details, handsome,” she replied, throwing the scented package into the cart with a smug smile.

At the decor store, the situation got worse — or better, depending on your point of view. She disappeared for a moment and came back with a pillow shaped like a giant turtle. Green, cute, completely useless. But lovely.

“What’s that for?” he asked, already anticipating the answer.

“It’s not ‘why’. It’s ‘why not’?

He couldn't help but smile. In the end, the turtle went with them. So did the set of small jars with bamboo lids, three candles (one of them in the shape of a star), a cheese grater that she thought was 'too elegant to leave in the drawer' and a toothbrush holder that looked like it had come out of a Scandinavian catalogue.

The checkout line seemed endless. He wrapped his arms around her shoulders as they waited, resting his chin on the top of her head with a long sigh.

“Never again,” he muttered. “We’ll never do that again.

“You said that last time.”

“And I’ll say it next time too.”

Hours later, the apartment door closed with a soft thud. Héctor dropped his bags on the living room floor, kicked his sneakers off somewhere, and went straight to his bedroom, without ceremony. When he reached the edge of the bed, he let his body fall face down with the weight of someone who had crossed the desert.

“I am dead.”

She came right behind, still with the turtle bag in her arms, her hair a little messy, a slight tired smile on her lips.

“You’re being dramatic.”

“I was questioned by a lady in the candle aisle because I took the last lemon diffuser. Did you see the look on her face?”

“It smelled like revenge,” he replied, dropping the pillow on the floor and carefully climbing into bed.

He didn't even move, arms spread wide, face buried in the mattress.

That's when she climbed up his back slowly, with the naturalness of someone who had done it a thousand times. First her knees were on either side, then her legs crossed over his waist, her arms resting on his back, and finally she sat on his ass as if he were a living armchair.

“This isn’t helping my energy levels,” he muttered, still motionless.

“But it helps my mood.”

She leaned forward, her nose touching the back of his neck, and whispered affectionately:

“You are the cutest boyfriend in the world. And resilient. A true department store warrior.”

He let out a muffled laugh against the mattress.

“Warriors also cry.”

She settled herself more comfortably on top of him, resting her face against his back now, her hands playing with the collar of his shirt. The silence settled in slowly, comfortably. The kind of silence that only exists between two people who love each other even on the most exhausting days.

“It was worth it,” she said softly.

“For the turtle pillow?”

“For everything. It was a day with you.”

He closed his eyes, taking a deep breath. And even though he was crushed, exhausted and feeling his body asking for help, he smiled.

“Okay… but next time, we’ll just buy the soap online.”

She bit his shoulder lightly, laughing.

“Not funny.”

He turned his face to the side, still without the strength to get up.

“Totally. But I love you. Even when you drag me around for three hours looking for jars with bamboo lids.”

She smiled against his skin.

“I love you too. Especially when you carry all the bags and still smile kindly at the attendant who hands you useless pamphlets.”

“Themselves”
