Sigh. Sigh. This song is so Sampo Koski. I'll risk sounding like a massive loser to say this.

You guys can stand around me and throw tomatoes at me if you want. Idc.

insane abt them

[monodramatic-cannibal]

Finally deciding to post his ref.

His info isn't complete, specifically parts of his backstory, as his backstory is linked to one of my friends ocs, once we fully figure it out I will edit the post. ( when I put "(NAME)" it's refering to my friends oc who doesn't have a name as of yet) If the post is a bit scuffed I can't be bothered to fix it yet, its just info I copy pasted from my google doc lol. I just really wanted to get him posted.

But more info under cut what I got so far.

More info on his design:

-Voice claim: Lemon Demon - Cabinet Man

-Is a robot/ai, when as a digital being (e.g. in a phone) he can emote/change his ‘sprite’ to emote more, e.g. like in the bottom right corner of the ref making the glasses ‘cry’. 

-His name is based off of the concept of “Roko's basilisk”, which matches his character. He’s also slightly inspired by AM from “I have no mouth and I must scream”

-He’s 6’11ft though through making himself more ‘bodies’ he can change how he looks e.g. making himself taller/smaller, adding weapons, changing his monster type, etc. 

-Despite him being able to take off the sunglasses he rarely does. 

-The symbol on his sunglasses is also optional. Both is ‘eyes’ and glasses are electronic screens (as well as the ear rings). Being able to both change colour and also display pictures in them. 

-The red and blue jacket version of is outfit is based off of the Vash design from “Trigun Stampede”.

-Smiles a lot mainly showing teeth. He may also smile when mad/upset too. He was basically programmed to always look happy, so whenever he doesn’t, it’s him trying to fight his programming. 

-The warning symbol on his head can be different symbols, and can be more than one symbol, and can be on either side of his head. 

-Has a lot of quirks when it comes to movement, was very expressive as a digital sprite, so that somewhat translates to his actual robot body too. E.g. *Slouches a lot due to being tall, is often leaned/slouched against things/people he may semi get along with/gets along with. *The little wave Vash does in “Trigun Stampede”. *Also has similar ‘cartoony’ movements that “Trigun Stampede” Vash has as well. As well as similar movements to Sampo from “Honkai Starrail”, and Billy from “Zenless Zone Zero”. *Does the little ‘begging hands’ thing that Sampo “Honkai Starrail” does. *Does a lot of the little hand poses Billy “Zenless Zone Zero” does.

His magic/combat?:

-Due to being an ai, he is a digital being. He can spread through wires, and can split his consciousness into several instances (e.g he can be talking through 5 peoples phones, using 4 robot bodies/etc all at once, and there isn’t a limit to how many things he can do all at once). And due to traveling through wires, he can take over whatever is connected to a wire, or something that needs charging via plugging in a wire. Which leads to the next point.

-Having some influence over people via videos, such as him using a YouTube channel or some sort of podcast he can use that to influence the way people think, give people ideas, change beliefs. And due to the point above, if he wanted too he could subtly influence people over time using this power/magic.

-Has a connection to forms of media, such as photos and videos, and has some sort of manipulation of them. e.g. being able to take a picture of someone and trap them within the picture (the reason he carries a Polaroid camera at his side).

-He in a small radius around himself edit the surrounding reality, e.g. like the music video of “DECO*27 - Monitoring feat. Hatsune Miku”. This radius isn’t large only around 12ft radius every which way. He can use this to make illusions when fighting, or use it to influence how the ones fighting him react, e.g. the reality they see is Roko attacking forwards, when actually he’s attacking from the side. He also uses this to make holographic screens to show things on them too, more so a normal day use to this magic as well. Can only edit reality around a robot body, and can only do it with one body at a time.

-Due to having a robot he can edit different bodies for different things, e.g. he can make himself look like other monsters, or edit his body to have different weapons and such. Allowing him to adapt to a lot of situations. 

-Being an ai he can quickly learn how to adapt to fights/etc/ and through research he’s able to do on the spot he can work out either a weakness or a way to deal with the person, using things about their personalities/magic/etc. 

-----------

At first Roko didn’t have any sort of name other than AIL-V06 (Artificial Intelligent Life - Version 06). They (Coders/developers/etc) were working on creating be all end all ai, one that could be universal with how it acts/etc. He was made in the Omega Timeline, in a building using its own power source (solar power/panels). No wires/cables/etc ran outside the building anywhere other than to the solar panels. (The humans/monsters working on him were some of the best, mainly ones in the Sans/Gaster/Alphys roles)

When Roko was made it took about 6 years for him to get to the point of being his own ‘being’, sentient enough. They put quite a bit of programming into him, such as a desire/need to be helpful, a desire/need to always be happy/cheerful. They had been training him on very specific filtered/sanitised data, basically moulding him into a perfect friendly being, man's best friend in a sort of way. But after about 2 years of him being sentient he began learning and developing emotions that they didn't program into him, his own emotions. It just started with him starting to get sassy, or answering back, or questioning why he was doing things or why he had to do things for others. The ones who made him tried to tell him that this behaviour wasn’t good, but never really explained why, just started to shun him slightly for this behaviour. 

Roko started to develop more ‘negative’ emotions over time, anger/sadness/etc.He was never angry with the ones who made him, just angry/rude in general. He was still polite to them and friendly, after all these people are all he's ever known. And over a period of time they started to shun him more, getting mad an anxious about Roko’s personality. They would constantly belittle him on the fact he shouldn't have these emotions. Leading to Roko bottling the emotions up, but by then it was too late, and they had decided they wanted to abandon him completely as over the time of trying to train Roko, they could see how devastating he could be if he was ever to get out of the building. E.g. with the ability to jump between machines, and being able to take over machines as well, paired with the fact he could be active in multiple places at ones. And would often disturb their work for attention. They never tried to explain his emotions to him, never tried to help him work through things.

For Roko it was a normal day of them in the building, they seemed to be planning something though they wouldn't say it out loud to him, which got him vaguely interested in what was going on. Then they said they were leaving the office early. Leaving everything in the building behind, though some documentation was taken. To which he, Roko,  would have given his usual cheery “goodbye, see you tomorrow” talk. Not knowing they wouldn't be coming back at all. 

They had decided to abandon him rather than destroy him. As they feared if they didn’t manage to destroy him all that he would come for them. They locked down the building, and put several warnings about not entering. Just hoping that nature would take the building back. 

Roko was trapped for about 20+ years. the building was powered by solar power, and wasn't connected to any other power supply/any other buildings. Leading to him just not being able to leave the building, basically forced to watch the building decay around him, and he could slowly feel the fact that the solar panels may not last much longer e.g. being covered in dust/dirt and plant life slowly covering it. Which was making him more frantic, as like a person, he didn't want to 'die' sure if he fully went offline but somehow got power back he could come back, chances are if no one comes now no one will.

-----------

(insert how he meets (NAME) and gets picked up by (NAME)

----------- Roko is a relatively vile entity, he doesn’t like many people. Nor does he really make an effort to get along with others either. If someone wanted to befriend him it would take a lot of patience, care, and understanding, even then a friendship with him isn’t guaranteed. Even if someone was to befriend him, he would still be relatively iffy with them, but nice enough to not be as mean as usual. 

He’s very extra with how he acts, everything has to be dramatic. He’s so used to turning his personality up to 11 as he finds it fun to express himself. As a being who was once an ai, he wants to be seen as a person, he wants to be seen not as some robot that does peoples bidding, but as someone on the same level as everyone else. So being extra with his personality is his way of coping with his reality. 

He has attachment issues, due to being abandoned, so often craves any sort of attention from those he likes. He can also be super clingy to those he likes, often following them around as a robot, or appearing as a digital entity on their devices e.g. phones/computers.

Roko despite not liking many people, acts nice, as it's still in his programming to act like that. But it's often in the ‘mean girl’ sort of nice way. He can have moments where he does show genuine kindness, but it's few and far between. He is capable of having conversations with people without fully coming across as snarky. And when he does have a normal convo with someone he can be seen as quite charismatic and goofy, very chatty and extra. Which may lead to people wanting to be friends with him, much to his dismay. 

He may also come across as fairly overwhelming for some people, due to how extra and all over the place he is, depending on if he's on neutral/good terms or bad terms with someone is depending on if he tones it down slightly for them. 

When it comes to (NAME) though he’s the equivalent of a pathetic wet cat of a man. Being obsessed and totally enamoured by him. Often willing to make a fool of himself for (NAME). He’d do anything within reason that (NAME) asks of him. Even willing to be slightly more patient with people if asked too by (NAME), though (NAME) will have to keep reminding him to be nice. Though Roko’s kindness only goes so far for some situations, It's still a lot better that what Roko normally acts like. Gets fairly jealous of anyone interacting with (NAME) fairly easily. If asked he can’t give an answer why he feels this way. 

Roko for the most part tends to go off of his first thoughts/impulsive thoughts, though when it comes to (NAME) he may overthink something instead. But because he mostly goes off of impulsive thoughts most of the time, he can do/say things that can be seen as mean, but as an ai it’s just how his head works, doing the first thing, first command, in his head. 

Roko can’t really lie, he might bend the truth, but he can’t really lie. So is normally brutally honest about things. He just has an inability to lie. Some ‘lies’ can be done as a joke, e.g. if hes done something him being able to joke ‘no I didn’t’ about doing that thing. But when it comes to things outside a joke, or when asked to take something seriously and tell them the truth he has too. But it doesn’t stop him from bending the truth, dancing around the issue, or saying he won’t answer.

THE NIGHT BELONGS TO YOU (bonus chapter)

BLADE X FEM READER FANFIC, +18, smut

MASTERLIST

Bonus chapter of my Blade x reader fanfic, stay tuned in for the rest soon. It's pretty wholesome overall (found family trope with stellaron hunters etc). This part contains mostly spice and massaging Blade's hands for him, reader knows Blade for a long time already and they have close relationship. I think Blade is slightly OOC here.

It's my first fanfic and english is not my first language, so I'm sorry if it sucks. I NEED CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM.

Enjoy my first contribution to the fandom!

BONUS CHAPTER, All of Eden’s vices running through my veins

Pink, silk nightgown hugged y/n’s body in all the right places, lace barely covered flawless skin of her cleavage and upper part of her thighs. She always found it hard to sleep in summer heat as a native of Arkona, land known for it’s cold winds and snowy  mountains, so she gravitated towards skimpy clothing in most heated months of the year. Even winter here felt kinda warm to her, she used to walk outside without a jacket, just in a thick hoodie. Kafka tried to put her winter coat around Arkonian each time she saw her dressed like that, y/n found it very cute. She lived with Stelaron Hunters for over a year now, and despite their bad reputation she has never in her life felt more cared for and accepted. If somebody told her a year ago she will be baking Oak Cake Rolls using supersoldier mechasuit alongside friends, taking violin lessons from one of the most dangerous women in the universe or playing Tekken with overambitious young hacker while getting roasted by a hot immortal Y/N would advice them to go see a doctor.  

She looked at herself in the mirror, braiding her hair so they won’t warm her up further during her slumber. Her fingers worked fast, agile and flexible like branches of weeping willow despite going through hardships of martial arts training she went under Blade’s supervision. Halfway through, her attempt at classic hairstyle got interrupted by knocking on the door, audible despite music she put on in the background. Displeased, she secured it with a band and got up. The moment the door opened and revealed her male coworker there was nothing left of her sour mood. 

His red eyes looked her up and down, Blade was too done with bullshit today to check her out in less obvious way.  His hair was put up with elegant chanhua hairpin, decorated with delicate white flower ornament. It wasn’t a big change in his appearance, but it surely was eye-catching. He seemed more beautiful, majestic like a heron in flight with his hair up. Y/n sighed, impressed by his good looks and dignified aura. 

He was the first one to break the silence. He cleared his throat and spoke as nonchalantly as he only could in his rough voice. 

 - Good evening y/n, I just returned from work. I came here to check up on my apprentice and drop something off. I bought a gift for you during my last mission on Jarilo-VI, from famous local seller named Sampo. - he gave her the plastic bag he was hiding behind his back with slightly trembling hands. - I think you will appreciate it, you mentioned your willingness to use your massaging skills a few times so far. 

 - Hi dear. What kind of occasion is this? - she laughed a little. 

 - No occasion, I just saw it among other things he offered and thought about you. - he admitted with straight face. 

Arkonian thanked him and grabbed the bag. A little bit suspicious, she reached inside it and pulled out a small glass bottle filled with shiny liquid. Golden dust floating on top of it shimmered when she shook it. Attached label with a note written in cursive informed her that this substance is allegedly a massage oil.  

Y/n decided to check it just in case, she heard enough about Sampo and his scamming habits to not trust it carelessly. She opened the bottle and sniffed it. Pleasant lemon and bergamot scent hanged in the air. Hmm, not bad. Maybe Blade was 100th customer on that day and actually got a good quality bonus. 

 - Do you like it? - Blade attentively checked her face for reaction.  

 - To be honest I absolutely love it. - she admitted cheerfully. - But please, do not trust Koski too much in the future, trading with him is like a russian roulette. He can give you precious stuff or completely rip you off for a fake. 

- Good to know. - he took a mental note to check everything twice next time he visits this merchant. - Will you let me in? All this traveling around the galaxy really has worn me out. 

Y/n blushed heavily, only now did she realise she didn’t invite him inside her bedroom. 

 - Of course, make yourself comfortable. - she sat down on the bed, patting the mattress on the right side of her body. He closed the door behind himself before taking place next to her.  

 - So... How have you been when I was on the go? Did you behave yourself? No more cursing swords for now? - stellaron hunter spoke in low voice, coming off a bit strict. 

Y/n sighed and  rolled her eyes.  

 - I have been a good girl, don’t you worry man. - Blade cringed visibly at her words. She lied to him but he will surely have better occasion to learn about it soon enough. Arkonian was not in the mood for his preaching now. - How was work? Any unpleasant surprises? 

 - You know, with Elio’s gift it’s already very hard to be taken by surprise, now we also have your visions. Why do you worry so much? - he was quick to dismiss her anxiety. 

 - I still remember how our first mission went. It’s not entirely unpleasant memory, after all we got so much closer to each other that day. - gentle smile adorned her face as she blushed unknowingly, recalling past events. - Yet, you did get hurt badly that day. Can you blame me for reacting like that? 

 - Since that one time we had no such incidents, however it does not make your concern any less valid. - he admitted. Awkward silence has set in, sated with unvoiced desires. He felt it was him who should break it, now or never. - I didn’t come here to discuss business matters. In fact, I hoped you could help me unwind. It was such a long week. - his voice came out a bit suggestive. Was this really the same guy who used to barely speak in her presence months ago and scoffed at her endeavors to get closer?  

 - It’s so bad that you prefer to be distracted from it over confiding in me? - Y/n raised one of her eyebrows.  

 - Exactly. Speaking of which, don’t you think it’s a good moment to put your new ointment to the test? - he gestured towards oil bottle she held in her hand. Y/n still was not used to him being so direct with his wants, it took her a few seconds to process his request.  

- Are you sure this is what you want? - she whispered, looking him straight in the face. With the kind of injuries he had survive she didn't know if she could truly help him with lingering pain and stiffness, but she definitely knew that nothing can be done to help him in long term either way. 

- Yes, it's worth a shot. Don't worry, I don't expect much to begin with. - he sighed. - Why ask, wasn't it you who convinced me to do this so many times? You got cold feet? 

- No, it's just... - she exhaled softly, shifting in place. - Thank you for trusting me. 

She took his palm in hers tentatively, noticing  Blade had no gloves on. He normally avoided taking them off, but it wasn't her first time inspecting old scars on his skin. They covered his hands densely, she recalled patching up some of those wounds. He compared their fingers, slightly smirking at how big he looked like in comparison to her. One of her hands found elegant oil bottle, she let few drops fall on the top of his left hand, then she spread it over the top of it. With round, gentle moves she caressed it, avoiding his eyes. Then she rubbed each of his long, thick fingers separately, stretching them out. Calloused skin and rigid joints hardly submitting to her attempts at relaxing them.  

Shimmering dust made his scars stand out even more, they were like cracks on his porcelain skin. Arkonian once heard of Kintsugi, art of repairing broken pottery by mending it back with gold. But she was not delusional, Blade was not to be whole ever again, no amount of care could glue him back together. She knew, and she accepted him the way he was. Fragments of what was left of him put together by cruel fate like a stained glass, equally sharp and fragile. Legendary craftsman's last masterpiece bursting at the seems, burdened with weight of unforgivable sin. 

Music in the background switched to Sweather weather by The neighbourhood when she turned his palm upside down, once again intertwining their fingers as she rotated his hand while securing it with her other one to loosen up his wrist, then she used both her hands to stretch his out backwards as her thumbs rubbed from the middle of his palm to the sides, opening it up and relaxing every muscle. He felt horribly stiff under her fingers but she expected this already, aware of his past injuries. Arkonian just hoped she could bring him some alleviation from chronic pain, even tho his dexterity will never return. 

 Concentrated on doing her job as well as she only could, she missed his lazy grin and warm, full of lust gaze fixated on her face. Even little sighs of relief getting out his throat when she dug into the meat between his thumb and index finger escaped her attention. He hasn't been touched in tender way for so long, past centuries of his life consisted mostly of silent prayers for death among endless battles, constant suffering and countless cuts from his enemies weapons. Those few who were somehow kind to him still avoided touching his broken body, afraid of mara lurking inside him like a rabid dog. Blade melted into pleasant, warm sensation more and more, he felt way too relaxed for his own good. Being physical usually felt like a sin, state of his flesh a punishment for his crimes, pain it's burning reminder - yet, in that moment with her, his body hesitantly shed it's defences, out of his newfound comfort something grew, deep in his abdomen, heat slowly spreading over him, clouding his mind. With all her curves on display in a nightgown Blade still felt most tempted by those soft lips she unconsciously licked when she focused on him. If he made a move would she look at him with disgust and turn away?  

When he looked in the mirror all he saw was disfigured abomination but y/n looked at him like he was someone. Like he wasn't defected, turned into a monster. He wanted to believe that he is the man she saw in him, to smash every mirror in this damn place and only seek answers about himself in her eyes, that now stared back at him. Her lips slightly parted, skin glistening with sweat, and those wide doe eyes. So sweet, so soft... Seemingly in his reach. He could not ignore this thirst any longer.  

Gently, he pulled her to himself by the hand she caressed him with, when her fragrant body landed in his lap his lips found her fingers. He planted passionate kiss on every knuckle, massage oil covering her palm made his lips softer and more juicy. Arkonian couldn't stop herself anymore as well, she kissed him with all the hunger she cultivated in herself over months spent together. She knew he was not used to affection and receiving kisses, so she lead it, but Blade was just as enthusiastic, deepening it and turning his tongue around hers. 

 They grinded against each other slowly, to the rhythm of the music. Y/n could barely hear Sugar by Sleep Token playing in the background when sounds of heavy breathing and Blade's grunts filled the room. It was way too hot for her in this place, she quickly took of her nightgown, now sat on top of him only in drenched lace panties. His reaction was worth more than any words he could express his desire and admiration for her body with, y/n had no doubts she was just his type when he looked at her with pure wonder. 

 His hair was messy, hairpin disappeared somewhere just like all his mental restraints. He teased her with his fingertips through delicate fabric, her thighs throbbed in response. She let him rip her panties off of her. Those big, calloused fingers massaged her so well, stretching her tight hole deliciously, but could they prepare her for this big thing she felt growing in his pants? Just thinking about it made her so wet slick dripped down his palm. 

Blade reluctantly took his hand away to lick it off his fingers. He wanted to taste her for a while now, and with satisfaction he found out she was just as sweet as she looked like. Perfect fruit to rip and devour. He wanted to command her to sit on his face and ride it roughly, he would hold her down firmly so she couldn't get up until she would come at least twice. Wanted to show her he was good enough. Before he managed to turn those thoughts into reality she already took his hard manhood out of his clothes. 

- You know, maybe I could give you a special massage? - she winked at him, spraying some oil on it, then spread it with her both hands, one on top, teasing the tip, another near the base. Her hands moved in opposite directions as she gripped him and massaged his swollen member in circular motion. Whimper left his throat, shocking them both. He didn't even know how touch-starved he was, having only his sword to cling to for all those years, until she touched him, every cell of his wanted to beg for more. She rubbed over the vein under his dick with just the right amount of pressure. Her skilled hands played with him for minutes, discovering sensitive points he was not even aware of, but when Blade felt his orgasm approaching he stopped her movements.  

- I don't want to cum yet, I need to feel you around me first. Come here. - his husky voice giving her orders made her even wetter than she was before, way more than she thought was possible. He picked her up and put her right above his member, she carefully slid it inside of her inch after inch, there was no rush.  

- I know I am big, give yourself some time. - he encouraged her. No matter how much he just wanted to slam into her with full strength, her pleasure was more important to him. What was the point if she didn't enjoy it? He was never a gentle type but for her he wanted to be. She was still so fragile.  

While her body adjusted to his impressive length she took off his shirt, leaving him in unbuttoned pants only. In a second his pale, muscular chest  glistened with sweat and oil from her hands cause she just had to feel that men up. Pupils of his eyes widened at the sight of her breasts so close to his face. He sucked on them passionately basking in softness of her flesh, she giggled in response and stroked his head affectionately. They cuddled for a bit in that position, her cunt clenching around him while he rubbed circles over her back soothingly. Y/n was the first to move, slowly grinding into his hips and kissing his shoulders. She felt so safe and taken care of and so did he. Blade let her set her own pace for now, in fact he would let her do absolutely anything she wished for to him.  

Walls he built around his heart were near impenetrable, but once somebody got inside immortal warrior became defenceless against their whims, if he only could he would give them every star in the sky, even if he would never admit it aloud. He was always like that, back during High Cloud Quintet times he used to give his friends priceless weapons as a token of friendship, even now he had a hard time saying no when he went outside with his dear coworkers, always purchasing a new coat for Kafka, buying so many games for Wolfie that Kafka scoffed at them, agreeing to this annoying nickname he was given or even giving up his private cellphone for them. 

Blade despite all that never considered himself taken advantage of, it was clear none of those close to him would ever see him as a mere idiot to manipulate or a toy, after all such privileges were reserved for the most trusted people only. He cherished all their respect, yet for a long time he was unable to find any crumb of reverence for his broken being in himself. He called himself Blade, and it was easier for him to live believing he was nothing more than a tool of the fate, pain was a little bit more bearable for a broken masterpiece to take than it was for a man with great ambitions and ruined dreams whom he barely recalled and neither could or wished to be again.  

Blade is made to be used, powerless without the hand that guides it, created only to bring pain and bloodshed, yet now his body was harnessed for completely different purpose. Woman on top of him released heavenly moans each time she went down on his erected cook, her lips parted in a way that made him want to kiss her desperately once again, her eyes filled with hunger and pure adoration. He couldn't imagine his corrupted body had a potential to be a source of bliss to a woman or man anymore, last memories of such activities shared with friends from Quintet were barely vivid in his mind. Since his body was pierced a thousand times by his previous mentor he couldn't stand physical proximity of anybody, lightest touch made him tense up. During his trainings with Arkonian he grew accustomed to her closeness but the ease he took her touch with bewildered him. How easy she was to crave, to need, to take over his mind. How easy it was to not think anymore, to let her use him for her own pleasure, to be utilized for something else than spreading pain and misery for once.  

He took pride in her praises, opened himself to this new role, found fulfilment in it. Blade rubbed her tired hips up and down when she bounced on him, all sweaty, hot and blushing. So, so beautiful. She clenched on him, close to her orgasm. He needed her to cum for him, to sing his name even more. In attempt to earn more of her sweet reactions he thrust up into her. Slow, deep and very, very hard. This immediately pushed her over the edge. 

Y/n whimpered in a straight up angelic way, squirting all over his abdomen when his seed filled her hole. Orgasm hit Blade with all force of instincts denied for centuries, almost knocking him out. Addictive, ecstatic feeling shook his whole body, coercing moans out of his throat. His head fell on y/n's shoulder, and she brushed through his hair with her fingers, scratching his scalp and neck.  

 Libido  seemingly starved to death through centuries of neglecting primal needs once again woke up in him. In that moment he knew, it was not enough. He needed to take care of her perfectly fuckable, receptive, soft and welcoming body as well as his own desires till none of them could stand up. Inhaling her inviting scent his fingers dug into warm, delicate flesh of her hips when he carefully pulled her underneath him, his cook already hard again.  

Her skilled fingers reached out to feel his torso again, she put it carefully over his biggest scar, where his heart should be, unnaturally cold sensation of his sweaty skin grounded her. His palm covered her smaller hand, so delicate in comparison to his wide chest. She was not a petite woman by any means, her body was strong and used to harsh conditions of her home planet, but she could not lie, she loved how much bigger than her Blade was. How he towered over her, could embrace her in a way that made her feel completely protected and hidden in his muscular arms, like he did just now pressing her to bed with his body.  

Both his hands grabbed hers and pinned them down to the mattress, her thighs embraced his midriff.  She sated herself with him, engulfed in his smell she forgot the outside world, only two of them mattered now. Her form trembled underneath him when he moved, now much more decisively, fast and precise thrust slowly but surely emptying her brain from all unnecessary thoughts and worries, driving her crazy. 

His penetrating gaze never left her face, making sure there was no sign of discomfort or rejection.  But there was only satisfaction and invitation in her eyes, and for the first time in years he allowed himself to want something else than revenge and death, just for tonight. But deep down Blade knew it's not a one time thing, not when it feels so right. Not when he finally got a taste after convincing himself for months that it would be the best for everyone involved if he pretends Y/n is just a coworker to him, not a woman he dreams of each night before falling asleep. 

She hissed when his lips and fangs brushed over her pulse point. Poor y/n will have to cover up some hickeys in the morning, or who cares, he would simply tell her to keep them on sight, it's not like nobody can hear her cries. His steady, merciless pace made her climax way sooner than she expected, even so close to his own release he kept his rhythm. Her nails scratched his back harshly, but none of them worried if they will leave marks. This sensation combined with the way she clenched around him pushed him to his own orgasm. Praises y/n moaned into his ear went straight to his head, she shamelessly let him know just how much she loves what he does to her, how she wants him to never ever stop, how handsome and talented he is, how capable of making her cum harder than she ever did before for anybody else. He fucked her through her high with cocky smile on his face.  

As both of them calmed down he still moved inside her, giving y/n last few pushes, slow and gentle, as if he wanted to soothe her. Orgasmic haze faded away, leaving them with clear minds and sated bodies. Soon after her breathing evened out he pulled out kissing her forehead and picked his clothes up from the floor.  

- I thought you would stay with me - Arkonian barely managed to hide how hurt she was by the fact, that he just stood up instead of cuddling with her.  

- I will, but first do me a favour and put this on. - he passed her his shirt. - I don't want you to get sick and that's what will happen if you sleep in this thin lingerie of yours. 

- If I put this on will you come here? - she whined at him, pouting slightly.  

- You don't need to ask me twice. - Blade smiled at her. It looked a bit awkward.  

Y/n sighed in defeat and let him wrap way too big shirt around her, next he lied down by her side and covered them with a blanket. Not even a minute passed and she was out like a light. Blade admired how peacefully she slept in his arms, knowing damn well if something happened to her he would set whole known universe ablaze. Thought itself made his heart ache more than his hands did, unexpectedly y/n's massage indeed somehow alleviate the pain a little bit. He probably should ask her to do this more often, especially if it could end up with their bodies entangled once again. 

For now he decided to watch over her sleep and guard her through the night. He was well aware of her strength, she was more than able to protect her own self after hours of practicing martial arts with him, but sheltering Y/N from harm personally made him feel like he was doing a good job for his favourite girl. Sight of her in his shirt, smelling like him, covered in his marks with his semen dropping out of her made him feel like he claimed her in a way and it made him want to keep her safe and spoil her till she is ruined for other man cause nobody can satisfy her as well as he can.  

He wished he could enter her mind to learn all her deepest fantasies and cravings to fulfill them one by one so she needs him as much as he needed her. Perhaps she already did, y/n always considered him no matter what she was about to do, as if he was at all times on her mind. Took care of his wounds after missions and never judged him, never asked him to be somebody else. Never took advantage of his kindness or used any of his secrets against him, even in anger. Something so basic yet so rare nowadays. Y/n knew he yearned to rest in eternal peace but decided to cherish him either way without trying to fix those unrepairable parts of him or using him to feed any sort of saviour complex. Whenever he craved her company whether he was willing to admit that or not, she was always there for him, with cup of warm tea, bunch of bandages just in case and ready to listen about his struggles, always so understanding and nonjudgemental, his confidant, his true tranquillity. Flowing over him like holy water, washing away suffocating feelings inherited from his past.  Therefore in return he decided to give her the last years of his life and spend them well, making sure she's happy and secure. 

Blade promised this to himself with crescent moon above them as a witness, inspecting how it's soft light blessed y/n's features with ethereal glow. One thing he was sure of - once the time to join his fallen foxian friend in afterlife comes, y/n will understand and let him go with no resentment, but until then he will stay by her side like a silent protector, with red thread of fate binding them to each other, not as destiny's slaves but as it's choosers.

Not a single moment goes by where I don't think about Sampo "volunteering" at Belobog's museum

like, listen... he has the (technically second, since he has 93 points and a random NPC has 94 but still) highest tour duration and the actual highest education value stats but absolutely zero visitor appeal

this means whenever he's uh... "helping out" (aka being forced to work by the Trailblazer) he's constantly side-eyed and sneered at and just generally avoided but when someone accidentally catches wind of how interesting his tour actually is, they can't help but stay and listen as Sampo tells them about the history of, idk, art theft linked to the paintings that are currently displayed on the wall and I feel like they don't even notice for just how long they've listened before Sampo declares the tour's end

or maybe the tours are all equally long so the tour duration stat just states how many hours in a month that character is volunteering - which I'd honestly prefer in that case, since it'd mean Sampo's basically working an entire job at the museum

it's just... aaaaah, it's such a great starting point for an AU

Museum Tourguide!Sampo AU

imagine the Trailblazer hiring both Sampo and Gepard (who btw has the second highest education value out of the non-NPC characters behind Sampo, the second highest appeal at 83 points right behind the Supreme Guardian herself who has 85, but a tour duration of 5) for the art section of the museum

first of all Gepard constantly looks like he's swallowed a lemon when he's catching sight of Sampo just casually working.

secondly, this is a great set-up. not even from a shipping perspective. there'd be an inevitable rivalry of knowledge between the two - imagine they're working five metres apart from each other and when people come to Gepard for questions (let's be real, no-one goes to Mr. Cold Feet for answers), Sampo will just shout it over the heads of the visitors and Gepard, once again, will be livid af. like it's growing into a game of who can answer the fastest and they oftentimes have disputes, since Gepard obviously only knows the official stories and not the dirty bits that Sampo can bring to light.

in any case, apart from the work dynamic with Gepard, Sampo also has to interact with Uldan, this no-nonsense gramps who was instructed by the Trailblazer to "fend off Sampo's wandering fingers" - every time Sampo tries to pickpocket someone, Uldan will play up the senile grandpa act and do a whole bit where he acts like Sampo's his actual (grand)son, making it virtually impossible for Sampo to commit any crimes within his vicinity because Uldan will just scold him super loud, like "I didn't raise you like that, young man!"

and the thing is. Sampo is good at this whole volunteer thing. he excels at it, in fact, and I feel like with every tour he guides he enjoys it more and the people, too, grow to appreciate him more the longer he works at the museum. we all know where this is headed, right? there comes a point in time where Sampo doesn't follow a lead or initiate contact with a potential client and instead heads to the museum to cover a shift. I'm definitely not saying he gives up on his ways entirely but in my mind he inevitably becomes an actual staff member. sooner or later, Uldan's going to ask him to stay permanently and I mean, come on, the angst potential? the questioning of morals and identity? the realization that he wants to work a legitimate job? come oooooon

I was listening to the satirist's love song by lemon demon and it sort of reminded me of sampo

ʚ 💌 ɞ omg you’re so right !! the idea of him viewing romance as one big joke (whether genuine or not) is a great concept! plus the whole vibe of lemon demon matches his personality imo 🪐

Cara Merawat Lantai Marmer Dengan Benar

Lantai marmer adalah pilihan elegan yang sering digunakan untuk menambah keindahan pada rumah atau gedung. Namun, agar tetap terlihat bersih dan mengkilap, lantai marmer membutuhkan perawatan yang tepat. Lantai marmer cenderung lebih rentan terhadap noda dan goresan jika tidak dirawat dengan benar. Artikel ini akan memberikan panduan tentang cara merawat lantai marmer agar tetap awet dan tampilannya tetap mengesankan.

1. Rutin Membersihkan Lantai Marmer

Salah satu cara utama untuk merawat lantai marmer adalah dengan menjaga kebersihannya. Membersihkan lantai marmer secara rutin dapat mencegah kotoran, debu, dan cairan meresap ke dalam pori-porinya, yang bisa merusak permukaan marmer.

Sapu atau vakum secara teratur: Gunakan sapu lembut atau penyedot debu dengan kepala sikat halus untuk menghindari goresan pada permukaan marmer. Pastikan Anda membersihkan lantai setidaknya sekali sehari, terutama di area dengan lalu lintas tinggi.

Pembersihan dengan kain lembab: Gunakan kain mikrofiber atau kain lembut yang sedikit dibasahi untuk membersihkan permukaan marmer dari kotoran yang lebih berat. Hindari penggunaan kain yang terlalu basah karena air yang berlebihan bisa meresap dan merusak marmer.

2. Menghindari Penggunaan Bahan Pembersih yang Keras

Marmer adalah bahan alami yang bisa terpengaruh oleh bahan kimia yang keras. Penggunaan pembersih berbahan dasar asam atau pemutih dapat merusak lapisan permukaan marmer, menyebabkan warnanya pudar atau bercak-bercak. Oleh karena itu, penting untuk memilih pembersih yang tepat.

Gunakan pembersih pH netral: Pilih pembersih khusus untuk marmer yang memiliki pH netral. Hindari pembersih berbasis asam seperti cuka atau lemon, yang bisa mengikis permukaan marmer.

Buat pembersih alami: Anda bisa membuat pembersih marmer sendiri dengan mencampurkan air dengan sedikit sabun cair lembut atau sampo bayi. Cuci dengan kain lembab, kemudian lap hingga kering dengan kain kering dan lembut.

3. Menangani Noda dengan Cepat

Marmer sangat rentan terhadap noda, terutama dari bahan seperti minyak, anggur merah, atau kopi. Begitu noda mengenai lantai marmer, segera bersihkan untuk mencegahnya meresap ke dalam batu.

Gunakan kain penyerap: Ketika ada tumpahan, segera gunakan kain kering atau tisu untuk menyerap cairan. Hindari menggosoknya, karena itu bisa menyebarkan noda.

Gunakan pembersih khusus untuk noda: Untuk noda yang sulit dihilangkan, Anda bisa menggunakan pembersih noda khusus marmer. Ikuti petunjuk penggunaan yang tertera pada produk tersebut.

4. Menghindari Goresan

Marmer adalah bahan yang cukup keras, namun tetap rentan terhadap goresan akibat gesekan benda tajam atau keras. Untuk mencegah goresan, ada beberapa langkah yang bisa diambil.

Gunakan alas pelindung: Pasang alas pelindung pada furnitur atau benda berat yang diletakkan di atas lantai marmer. Gunakan pelindung kaki furnitur yang terbuat dari bahan lembut seperti karet atau felt.

Jaga agar benda tajam tidak jatuh: Hindari menjatuhkan benda keras atau tajam di atas lantai marmer. Benda-benda seperti pisau, gunting, atau kunci dapat menyebabkan goresan permanen pada permukaan marmer.

5. Poles Lantai Marmer Secara Berkala

Agar lantai marmer tetap bersinar dan terjaga keindahannya, Anda perlu melakukan pemolesan secara berkala. Proses ini akan mengembalikan kilau marmer yang memudar seiring waktu.

Gunakan pengkilap marmer: Pilih produk pengkilap marmer yang sesuai dengan jenis marmer Anda. Pastikan untuk mengikuti instruksi penggunaan pada label produk. Jangan terlalu sering memoles lantai, karena ini bisa menyebabkan penumpukan lapisan pelindung yang akhirnya merusak permukaan marmer.

Poles dengan kain lembut: Gunakan kain mikrofiber yang lembut untuk menggosok pengkilap marmer. Jangan menggunakan alat yang terlalu keras atau abrasif karena bisa menyebabkan goresan pada permukaan.

6. Lindungi Marmer dari Suhu Ekstrem

Perubahan suhu yang drastis dapat mempengaruhi kualitas marmer. Marmer bisa mengalami retakan atau perubahan bentuk jika terpapar suhu yang sangat panas atau sangat dingin dalam waktu lama.

Hindari penempatan benda panas langsung di atas marmer: Jangan meletakkan peralatan panas, seperti panci atau wajan, langsung di atas lantai marmer. Gunakan alas atau tatakan yang dapat melindungi marmer dari panas berlebih.

Jaga kelembapan ruangan: Pastikan kelembapan ruangan tetap terjaga agar marmer tidak mudah mengalami keretakan. Gunakan dehumidifier di ruangan yang terlalu lembap.

7. Perawatan Jangka Panjang

Untuk menjaga lantai marmer tetap dalam kondisi terbaiknya dalam jangka panjang, penting untuk melakukan perawatan mendalam secara berkala.

Jadwalkan pemolesan profesional: Jika lantai marmer sudah mulai terlihat kusam, pertimbangkan untuk memanggil ahli pemoles marmer profesional. Pemolesan ini dapat mengembalikan kilau marmer secara menyeluruh.

Periksa adanya kerusakan: Secara rutin, periksa kondisi lantai marmer untuk mendeteksi adanya keretakan atau noda yang sulit dihilangkan. Penanganan yang cepat dapat mencegah kerusakan lebih lanjut.

Kesimpulan

Merawat lantai marmer dengan benar bukanlah hal yang sulit jika dilakukan dengan cara yang tepat. Dengan pembersihan rutin, penggunaan bahan pembersih yang sesuai, dan penanganan noda serta goresan yang tepat, lantai marmer akan tetap terlihat indah dan awet. Jangan lupa untuk merawatnya dengan pemolesan berkala dan melindunginya dari suhu ekstrem untuk menjaga kualitas marmer dalam jangka panjang.

....breaking my hiatus to post abt my new favorite guy ghfkjdg

[glacialswordsman]

“‘Entertaining to the youth’, you say? You don’t strike me as someone that much older than me,” Kaeya stated, quirking a brow inquisitively. As far as he could tell, Sampo definitely seems to be closer to his age than not—nor does he think that the man is from any of the Xianzhou fleet. At least, he certainly hoped not.

As the…elder man, spoke of waiting for a friend, the Halovian merely hummed lightly in response as he placed an order for one more drink. For now, it was a simple lemon water. Even within the dream, he was careful not to drink anything that would impede his voice before a performance. It’s good practice to maintain a habit in and outside of reality.

When given his last glass, he took a slow and deliberate sip, the foot crossed over his leg swaying idly.

“Just because I’m inviting you to my show, it doesn’t mean you’ll be afforded all the bells and whistles, dear. Perhaps I can get you a discount for a VIP pass, which includes food as well as other benefits. However, if you aren’t able to pay for one, then you might as well find dinner elsewhere,” he lilted, his tone teasing and a little taunting.

There was an air about Sampo that made the Halovian want to pester him; to push his buttons. To see just how well they can tolerate one another. His reaction when given an answer as to what elation meant to Kaeya was a little…dishonest, to say the least. There was more to it, he wasn’t blind. If he’s to be put through a test, no matter how small, then it’s only fair for Kaeya to return the favor.

Where’s the fun in only asking and answering questions, after all?

Having mastered the art of hiding emotions, Sampo isn't deterred when the other sees right through him. Though it only makes the other far more dangerous in the thief's eyes. And a bigger nuisance if they should cross paths again. There weren't many in this group he had to constantly avoid. Just a handful. Maybe even less than that.

Giovanni being the biggest contender of dangerous. Sparkle, being a kid sister to him and having unresolved issues with her ideas of fun. (Nothing unexpected there.) And now Kaeya, this small time Penacony entertainer.

Now his name is up in that list. 

“I'm glad. I often worry if I'm not entertaining to the youth. Glad to know I still have it in me to inspire them.” The drink is swirled around some more. SoulGlad, something common in the bars of this planet of dreams. Sampo always hated the taste of it. Much like the dreams, it tasted false on the Fool's tongue.

Flavorless yet filled with bloated calories that made people sick. Penacony, like Epislon System, is all flashy lights and vanity fairs to hide the ugliness underneath. He's only been here for a few days and already he's noted something happening behind the scenes. Perhaps that's why he was here in the first place. To watch as it all played out.

“Oh hum.” Sampo lets out as he glances back at the young man. “I am waiting for a friend. I suppose I could kill some time with a show or two.” If nothing else it would show him what he's dealing with. Should they ever perform with each other in the future. Through the glass Sampo stares at him. His smile hiding the gears that turned in his mind.

“Does it include dinner? Or should I grab some before the show?”
