and you're telling me the popular ship in the fandom is gideon/harrow and not gideon/dulcinea. that's what i'm given to understand. no one else is melting at gideon saying very genuinely "i don't want you to die". no one else is really really smitten with dulcinea and practically swoons when she talks

Campaign 3 has turned into a tangled web exceptionally quickly.

Ira was working for Treshi for money.

Treshi was sowing discord in Jrusar to get the Paragon's Call inside.

The Paragon's Call is led by Otohan.

Otohan has appeared in Imogen's dreams.

Imogen's dreams are related to Ruidus.

The other people studying Ruidus, from the opposite side, are Fearne's parents.

Fearne's parents are working with Ira.

Which means this is all one big loop including people who are nominally on polar opposite sides of this conflict.

But also, though, it seems pretty likely that the assassins Orym is tracking are the same as the shadow assassins that have been stalking members of the Grim Verity, but also probably the people appearing behind Otohan in Imogen's dreams, and also probably the 'shadow assassins' that Yu was threatening them with, since Otohan is apparently working with the Unseelie Court.

And also, judging by their descriptions and the way they're not quite real, they're probably also Dunamancy clones, or alternate timeline versions of people.

And somehow, all of this links back to the the moon, which appeared at around the time two gods apparently vanished from the pantheon? Apparently?

I technically have heard many things that I rightwise should not have known about yet, and despite even my advance knowledge, I'm kind of baffled by it.

The Voynich Manuscript The History of the Mysterious Renaissance Codex That Has Never Been Deciphered

"Yet it may be roundly asserted that human ingenuity cannot concoct a cipher which human ingenuity cannot resolve." (Edgar Allan Poe, "A Few Words on Secret Writing", 1841)

For as long as language and communication have existed, humans have invented ways to mask their messages from prying eyes. Military and diplomatic officials often devise secret codes to transmit sensitive data and confidential information to approved parties. This practice has become so commonplace in recent years that entire sciences, hobbies, and a full-fledged profession, called cryptography, have been established to decipher these cryptic texts.

Needless to say, once revolutionary methods of cryptography, though historic, are now considered archaic. Their simplistic secrets have been disclosed to the general public and even incorporated into children's toys. With the bulk of modern civilization so dependent on the virtual world, secret codes have evolved to a whole new level, most notably through data encryption. Data encryption, which aims to conceal classified electronic information through the use of complex ciphers and algorithms, was initially used for governmental and military purposes, but it now acts as the primary medium of security that most online platforms (as of January 2017) provide for their users. As intricate and inextricable as data encryption might seem to people today, a growing number of brilliant, but devious, minds continue to successfully find ways to bypass supposedly state of the art encryption software.

With such incisive minds constantly at work, one could be forgiven for assuming there are no ciphers left unsolved. On the contrary, a diverse array of both ancient and modern cryptographic challenges, which have stumped even the most seasoned code crackers of today, exist, and may exist for generations to come. Among the most famous of these memorandums is a 600-year-old document that continues to mystify: the Voynich Manuscript.

I’ve been really thinking about the scale of GB and my S/I because like… he’s a train…

so is it a transformers sitch?? 🤔 is he a robot that hooks up to an actual train engine? Or is a train in this world something different than how we perceive trains IRL… is he a giant mech or is he more human sized…

Also, if he is the train himself, I cannot get over his line in this video

“Feel the force of a 20 ton steel horse” is he serious?? would that make him 20 tons 😭 and if so RIP to my S/I I think he’s the kind of annoying where he goes limp on top of them to make them hang out with him more

Hi, hello, good girl request anon here! You absolutely FED me with your response, i need to eat you're writing until it becomes part of my dna i swear.

Mayhaps can i ask good girl sucking cock while they do work at home? just keeping their pretty cocks warm in her throat, totally off in subspace like she was made for it?

(Zanye and sylus again, please! [Maybe caleb if ur feeling frisky] i beg, thank u sm) 🙇‍♀️

Such a Good Partner

꒰͡ ۫ Synopsis: You are a good girl! Always! Even when it comes to solving hard work questions or illegal dealings:)

꒰͡ ۫ Warning: Under the desk action, Voyeurism, choking, praising, Sylus uses you to show off to his rival.

꒰͡ ۫ Zayne

You were the best girl, the best assistant for the Cardiac Surgeon, always following orders.

Zayne was reading over some medical files that had been perplexing the young doctor all night. Between his knees was a warm mouth around his cock and pretty eyes looking up at him

He groaned softly, his eyes never leaving the papers in front of him as he felt your warm mouth enveloping his hardening dick. He spread his legs a bit wider, giving you more room to work. “Mm... Good girl..." He praised absently, his attention mostly on the files.

He reached down with one hand, tangling his fingers in your hair - not guiding or forcing but letting you know he was aware of your presence there between his legs. He continued reading through the medical reports but couldn't help letting out small moans whenever his sensitive head pushed to the back of her throat.

The praise made you squirm in happiness, going down on his cock until it was properly lodged in your throat and your nose was buried in the neatly cut dark pubic hair.

He looked down at you, watching as you took him deep into your throat. His eyes darkened with desire but he maintained his composure. “There we go, That's my good girl.” He praised again, his voice slightly huskier now.

He pushed his glasses back up with one finger, maintaining the delicate balance between his professional focus and the pleasure building in his groin. “Keep going just like that... Perfect girl.” He murmured distractedly, flipping another page of the file.

He was deep in thought, trying to solve the medical puzzle on the files. His mind was sharp - one of the best doctors his hospital had. His body reacted without consuming his thoughts.

As he read the symptoms and test results, his hips began to move in a slow, steady rhythm. Fucking your mouth without even realizing it. He was so close to figuring out the diagnosis.

Just a little more focus... and a little more of your warm, wet mouth around his dick.

Zayne started panting, his free hand gripping the pen so hard he was afraid it might snap. "Such a perfect mouth.” He muttered absently, finally making a notation on the file. His free hand tightened slightly in your hair as he reached the climax of the diagnosis. “Almost there... just..." He gasped suddenly as you swirled your tongue in just the right way.

"Fuck... fuck fuck fuck..." His voice cracked slightly as he reached the peak of his pleasure. Dr. Zayne rarely cussed. But something about having his hard length choking you, changed all of that. His hips thrust forward sharply, burying his dick deep in her throat. “Got it!” He groaned, scribbling the final notes with a shaky hand. The diagnosis was complete.

He slumped back in his chair, completely spent both mentally and physically. His glasses were askew, his tie loosened, and his dick still buried deep in your throat as he caught his breath. “Mmh...perfect timing. Diagnosis completed right as I came down that gorgeous throat."

You pulled off of his cock, coughing a little as you wiped your mouth with the back of your hand. “D-did I do good, Dr Zayne?”

He chuckled softly, adjusting his glasses with a smirk. “Outstanding, actually. Both medically and orally." He stood up slowly, tucking himself back into his pants. “You just cured my patient file backlog and gave me one hell of a stress release."

Zayne kneeled down on the floor of his home office and wiped away a dribble of spilled cum.

“You've been such a good girl today." His voice was low and gentle, filled with praise. "I'm so proud of you for taking care of my cock while helping me save lives.”

He helped you stand on wobbly legs. “Over the desk, Sweetpea. Atta girl~.”

꒰͡ ۫ Sylus

Sylus sits at the head of a long table in a dimly lit room filled with tense silence and the heavy scent of cigarette smoke. His rival gang leader sits across from him, surrounded by armed men on both sides. Sylus' hand rests casually on your head.

You kneel between Sylus' spread legs, his large member lodged deep in your throat. You look up at him, eyes slightly watery but you were an obedient girl. He pettingly cards his fingers through her hair while negotiating, "So, Marcus, do we have a deal or not?"

Marcus leans back in his chair, eyeing Sylus with a mix of annoyance and grudging respect. He glances down at you briefly before meeting Sylus' red eyes. “Your little whore is quite the distraction. Makes it hard to focus on business."

Sylus chuckles and suddenly grabs his gun from his holster, pointing it directly at the other man with a sneer. “Oh, she’s far from a whore. She’s a good girl. Now, why don’t you correct yourself?”

Marcus's eyes widen slightly at the sudden display of aggression, but he quickly regains his composure. He smirks, "Apologies, Sylus. Didn't mean any disrespect to your... companion." He gestures to one of his men, who slides a thick manila envelope across the table.

You moves your lips up and down Sylus’ thick length as a thanks for defending your honor. You hum gently, using your free hand to caress his balls.

His eyes flutter briefly as you work your mouth and hand expertly around him. A low growl escapes his throat as he opens the envelope with one hand. Marcus watches with an amused expression. "Smart girl... keeping her leader happy during negotiations."

He slides the envelope back to Sylus. "Everything's there. The deal's done." He leans forward slightly. “But Sylus... next time we do business... maybe leave your ‘good girl’ behind?" He winks suggestively at Sylus' mechanical crow perched nearby. Mephisto squawks, head tilting in curiosity.

Sylus' grip on your hair tightens slightly, not out of anger but as a reflex to the pleasure you’re giving him. He smirks at Marcus. “Jealousy doesn't become you, Marcus. And no, next time we do business, she stays by my side.”

His orgasm builds fast and he praises you with soft coos and words as he sees the tears springing to your eyes at the burn of the stretch

Sylus' breathing becomes heavy as he nears his climax. He pulls your head back slightly, looking down at your tear-streaked face with a mix of affection and possession. “Such a good girl, taking me so well. Showing Marcus what you're made of."

He lowers her mouth back down on him. "Keep going sweetheart... showing him the real reason why I take you everywhere with me." His grip on your hair guides you. "Marcus, you see why I don't leave my queen behind? This sweet mouth..”

He empties into your throat, stroking your hair as you swallow every drop.

Sylus throws his head back with a low groan as he comes, filling your throat with his hot release. He holds you gently now, petting you as you finish every last drop. “Good girl... such a good girl..." He looks back at Marcus, smirking.

He pulls you up just a bit, gently tapping your cheek. “Now why don’t you go and give Marcus a big kiss to seal the deal?”

꒰͡ ۫ Caleb

Caleb's eyes were closed as he leaned back in his chair, one hand gripping the armrest while the other was tangled in your hair. You were kneeling between his legs, taking his cock deep into your throat, sucking and licking with a fervor that was both surprising and incredibly satisfying.

Cale opens his eyes, watching you deepthroat him while he's working on Farspace Fleet documents. His hand moves from the armrest to your head, pushing you down further. “Fuck Pipsqueak, even when I'm working on classified documents, you still suck my cock like a good soldier."

His voice grows huskier as he watches you work your mouth on him. “You know, most soldiers wouldn't be this eager to please their commanding officer at this hour." *He shifts slightly in his chair, giving you better access as he continues to watch the documents on his screen intermittently.

"Have I ever told you how fucking perfect your mouth is?" he mutters, one hand tracing down your jaw while his eyes alternate between the tactical maps on his screen and the way your lips wrap perfectly around his cock. “Most wives would be complaining about their husband working late.”

"But here you are..." His hips move slightly forward, fucking your mouth slowly “On your knees, giving the best fucking head while I'm supposed to be running fleet operations.” His voice becomes more tender as he pushes your hair from your eyes.

"I love you," he whispers suddenly, his hand gentle in your hair as he holds you in place while he cums in your mouth. You swallow like a dedicated soldier, opening your mouth and sticking your tongue out to show him your tongue.

The documents are forgotten as he focuses solely on you, his pretty little wife who always knows how to make him feel loved and appreciated even during the late nights of work.

You pull away with a slight cough, eyes fluttering up to his with a cocked smile.

Caleb's chest heaves with a mix of satisfaction and desire as he watches you pull away. A bead of cum escapes the corner of your mouth, and he can't help but lean down and lick it off, his tongue tracing your lips. "Come here," he commands softly, pulling you onto his lap.

He wraps his arms around you, holding you close as he kisses you deeply, tasting himself on your lips. “You know what I love most about these late nights?" Caleb murmurs against your mouth.

"That I can have you all to myself. No interruptions, no distractions." His hands slide down to your ass, squeezing gently as he rocks his hips, reminding you that he's still hard. “I think I need a reward for all my late-night work.”
