Pairing: fae male x female human reader

Summary: Spring brings new life to the botanical garden where you meet with Florian, your fae mate and Lord of Nature. Amidst growing flowers and dazzling fae magic, he makes you understand how much he loves you.

Warnings: sfw, spring vibes 🌸, fluffy cute feelings, emotional intimacy and steamy kisses, passion and tenderness, fae magic, smut implied briefly.

Spring had come.

The botanical garden was full of life and colors.

There was something mesmerizing about it: the trill of birdsong, the hum of bees and the scent of freshly awakened flowers.

You picked up your pace, weaving through the garden's paths and heading to the clearing where you were to meet your mate. The place around you was scattered with trees and flowers, leaves and petals swinging gently. It was one of the places Florian, your fae mate was responsible for.

Darn it... You were late. Nearly running, you darted through people, your fingers brushing across the pendant on your chest—a delicate silver leaf with a small bird beside it. It was Florian's present to you, a symbol of his protection, infused with his powers to keep you safe. You grinned, remembering the day he'd clasped it around your neck, saying: As long as you wear this, you will be safe. Always under my care.

Florian, your fae boyfriend waited for you by the north gate, in front of the secret entrance where the lines between the commonplace and magical blurred.

He was tall, towering over you with broad shoulders and a muscular body that made you hot all over. A sun-kissed face with sharp features, prominent cheekbones, a strong jawline, and pointed ears. His eyes were a deep forest green with gold flecks, and when he looked at you, it felt like he could reach right into your heart.

Long brown hair stained with gold and copper strands fell to his shoulders, and somehow, no matter what, tiny flowers and leaves found their way into it. And his wings, oh they were stunning. They were now tucked behind his back, but they were huge and clawed, with translucent membranes that shimmered in green, gold, and silver hues.

His lips softened into a smile when he saw you. He rushed to you, his steps fluid and graceful. Strong hands wrapped around your waist, enclosing you in his embrace. He smelt of musk and flowers, and you still couldn't believe he was yours.

Yes, Florian always made you feel that deep, wonderful flutter in your chest. He was the fae Lord ruling over nature, but he was also completely yours. A fae so strong, yet you were always struck by the contrast between his power and the gentleness of his touch.

"There you are, little wren," he murmured, his lips brushing against yours. Soft and wet. "I've been waiting for you."

You smiled against his mouth, loving the way he spoke your nickname. Florian affectionately called you his little Wren. He'd said you reminded him of the small, joyful birds that sing in the forest.

"I'm sorry. The bus arrived later than usual."

"I was beginning to think you'd gotten lost." He exhaled. "I still would have preferred to hold you in my arms and fly you here. It would have been quicker, safer, and I wouldn't have to spend any second apart from you."

"It's okay," you said softly. "Spring is here, and as Lord of nature, you have so much to do. Besides, flying is not so convenient if people see us."

"Alright then. Next time, I'll walk with you. I do not like leaving you alone."

You laughed and kissed him fondly. "Florian, it is the middle of the day, and I am wearing your protecting pendant. I am safe. Always."

He hummed, his thumb delicately stroking the delicate jewelry. "I know. But you are my little wren, and I would rather keep you close, where I can see you and protect you myself."

"How sweet and protective," you said as his hands stroked your spine. "But I am not made of glass. I can take care of myself."

Florian frowned. "That doesn't mean I'm not worried. It's in my nature to protect my mate."

"I know that," you grinned, cupping his face. "I'm so happy you're mine."

He smiled—a genuine, brilliant smile. "You always know what to say to ease my mind." He patted your ass playfully. "Come, let's walk. The garden is in full bloom and I want to show you something."

He grabbed your hand, his fingers intertwining with yours, as you followed him through the magic gate and deeper into the paths of the garden, away from prying eyes. At your feet, flowers sprang to life, their petals unfurling in a riot of color while the trees swung gently, their leaves whispering things only Florian could understand.

It seemed as if the earth itself was worshiping him and also accepting you, honoring your bond. It made you feel so happy and blessed.

As you walked, Florian unleashed his magic, tiny flecks of stardust floating through the air. The earth responded to his call. The flowers bloomed in sparkling blues, bright reds, and deep purples that appeared to glow from inside. They smelt delightfully sweet. Butterflies with wings like stained-glass flew about you while birds tittered from the treetops.

"Wow... Florian," you marveled, "it's so beautiful."

He grinned. "This is nothing yet. Look at that." Next, he took you along a meandering route dotted with cherry blossoms, their pink petals drifting lazily to the ground. With a flick of his wrist, his magic danced again, and the petals whirled around you, swirling in the air before settling on your head like a crown. You laughed, wiping one off your nose, while Florian gazed at you, his eyes glowing with tenderness.

"Are you happy, little wren?"

"Of course, I'm happy. So so happy! You're pretty amazing, you know that?" you said, your face beaming.

He cupped your face, his thumbs stroking your cheeks. "You're so beautiful. Your eyes, your smile... so much more beautiful than the first bloom of spring."

You flushed because surely he was teasing you. "Flatterer."

"I speak the truth. How can you be so perfect?"

You chuckled. "I'm far from perfect, but if you think so, I won't argue. Thank you. For sharing this with me. For taking me as your mate even if I'm only human —" "No," he cut you off. "Thank you for being mine. For accepting me, not just the fae, but… me." You smiled, your fingers framing his cheek. "How could I ever resist you, Florian?" He did not answer with words. Instead, he kissed you, his lips claiming yours, tenderly, possessively. It began softly, as it always did, but it quickly deepened, his hands sliding to your waist and pulling you closer. You melted into him, your fingers fisting the fabric of his shirt as you kissed him back, opening your mouth to him.

Growling, his tongue delved inside, mating with yours and you whimpered softly, the sound drowned out by his kiss. You tasted the slight sweetness of honey and wild berries, a flavor that was entirely Florian. One of his hands moved up your back, leaving a trail of heat, and the other cradled the back of your neck, his fingers cupping your nape.

When he finally drew back, you were both out of breath, your fingers buried in his silky hair. Every line of his body was hard against yours, his eyes half-lidded. You could feel the fire in him, the way his heart pounded in tandem with yours.

"Do you see now?" he muttered, his voice gruff and low. "How impossibly in love I am with you?"

"Florian…"

He silenced you with another kiss, this time deeper and more demanding. His hands moved across your body, tracing your waist, the dip of your spine and your smooth hips. When his lips left yours to trail down your jaw, you groaned, dropping your head to offer him full access. He went low, pausing just above your rapid heartbeat.

"Tell me you believe me," he said, his palm resting against your breast. "Accept how much you mean to me."

"I believe you," you muttered, trembling with emotion. "I believe you."

"Good," he replied, his voice a low growl. "Never doubt it. You are my everything. My little wren, my heart and soul. Without you, I would be lost. Lonely. Sad."

"You'll never be lonely," you said, tears gathering in your eyes. "Not as long as I'm here."

You didn't cry. Rather, you clasped his face in your hands and kissed him again, slowly and lovingly.

"And you're mine," you breathed against his lips. "My fae, my mate, my love and very breath."

Florian mumbled a husky 'I love you' as he nibbled your lip and poured all of his love and devotion into another kiss. It was a kiss unlike any other, tender and all-consuming, warming you from your head to your toes. Pulling back, he held you against him because you were still dizzy from the kiss and your mutual confession.

A swift peck on the tip of your nose and he raised a hand, his palm lighting up to reveal a gorgeous flower, its petals shifting from pink to gold as his magic touched it. He tucked it behind your ear, his fingertips brushing against your skin, lingering longer than usual. "There," he rasped, tilting his head to admire his work. "Perfect." "What kind of flower is it?" you asked, carefully touching the petals. "It's called everbloom. It is only open at sunrise and closed at sundown. But it will remain open for you. Forever." "Oh, you're spoiling me."

He grinned and whispered, "You deserve it. You deserve forever." As you paced the botanical garden, Florian took you to a secluded grove where a crystal-clear brook bubbled over smooth stones. He took you to a grassy area beneath a willow tree and kissed you again and again. Everything around you got covered by a surreal mist as he made love to you. He was wild and untamed, yet tender and steadfast, his love like a natural force. And as you clung to him, your bodies and souls merged as one, you marveled at how deep your love was.

Can I Just… Kiss You for a Bit? — Pezzy x Reader

🔹 GN!Reader 🔹 Soft Fluff🔹 Makeout Session🔹 Tender Hands, Lazy Kisses🔹 Slight Teasing🔹 “Is This Real?” Energy🔹 Comfy Couch Vibes🔹 Request 🦋

It starts slow.

You’re lounging together, limbs tangled on the couch, some random video playing in the background that neither of you are paying attention to. His hoodie sleeves are too long and your hand’s tucked under them, holding his fingers like a secret. Max keeps looking at you. Not in a “what’s up” kind of way—but in a lingering way. Like he’s memorizing the curve of your smile, the shape of your lashes when you blink slowly at him. And when you finally tilt your head and smirk, “What?”—he only shrugs. “Dunno. You’re just cute.” You raise a brow. “Just?”

He leans in a little closer, lips tugging at the corners. “Cute. Hot. Way too good at stealing all my hoodies.” Your laugh is warm and quiet. But he doesn’t laugh with you this time. Instead, he shifts closer. One hand slides over your waist, slow and easy, like he’s testing the waters—but he already knows you’ll let him drown there. His other hand comes up to cup your cheek, thumb brushing beneath your eye. You don’t even have to ask. He kisses you. Not rough. Not rushed. Just soft and full and present. He kisses you like he’s been waiting for this exact moment all day—and maybe he has. It deepens naturally. A little more pressure. A slight tilt of your chin. You feel his breath against your skin when he pulls back for half a second, nose brushing yours, before diving back in like he just couldn’t stay away.

His hands stay respectful—but greedy in their own way. One cradling the back of your head, the other gripping your thigh just enough to say, mine. You make a noise in the back of your throat, not even a moan—more like a surprised breath. Like oh. This is real. Max laughs against your lips. “You okay?” he mumbles, forehead resting against yours. You nod. A little dazed. “Yeah. Just… kinda forgot how to think.” He kisses the side of your mouth, then your jaw. “Good. ‘Cause I wasn’t planning on stopping anytime soon.” You spend the rest of the afternoon tangled up, kissing like there’s no timer on the moment. No rush. Just you and him and the soft rhythm of your heart finally beating in sync.

You’re both deep in it. Limbs tangled, his hoodie scrunched halfway up your back, Max’s hand under your shirt (respectfully… mostly), just resting there with his thumb rubbing lazy circles on your skin. Your legs are hooked around his, your fingers in his hair, and you’re both breathing like you’ve just finished a marathon—not from doing anything intense, just from all the damn kissing. That’s when the front door opens. And slams shut. “YO, PEZZY, YOU LEFT YOUR—” Yumi’s voice cuts off immediately. You don’t even get a chance to spring apart. You and Max just freeze like two guilty teenagers caught by the school principal—only worse because Max still has his hand up your shirt and you’re halfway in his lap. Yumi stands there for a beat too long. Mouth open. Eyes wide. Bag still in his hand.

Then he slowly puts the bag down on the entryway table. Still not blinking. “…I’mma go. I saw nothing. Y’all continue your National Geographic mating ritual in peace.” And then he’s gone. Door slams again. You bury your face in Max’s shoulder and scream into the fabric of his hoodie while he just wheezes into yours. “Oh my God,” you mutter, voice muffled. “We are never living that down.” Max, trying to contain his laughter, snorts, “He’s definitely telling the others.” As if on cue, his phone buzzes on the coffee table. A Discord notification lights up the screen:

Bro was FULLY gripping cheeks

that’s crazy

WHICH cheeks?

Both.

Double homicide.

lemme find out pezzy got W RIZZ

BLOCKED. ALL OF YOU. BLOCKED.

You both die laughing. Ten minutes later, you’re still cuddled up, now under a blanket with Max grumbling, “Should’ve locked the damn door,” while kissing the top of your head.

Secret Springs Resort

Pairing-Joel Miller x f!plus size reader

CW-18+, MDNI, Angst,hurt/comfort, mentions of body insecurity, mentions of food insecurity, mentions of smut, Joel being so supportive, reader hiding her feelings at first but we always end with fluffiness. Dream vacation Joel vibes.

WC-1.2k

A/N- I decided to go with a different direction for this weeks theme at the Resort for the Secret springs challenge by our mayor @secretelephanttattoo. I love this idea, it was so fun to write despite the angst, it’s just in my nature to make you feel a little.

[Series Masterlist][Joel Miller Masterlist]

Not beta read

Indulgence

If you thought he didn’t notice the first night then you had seriously underestimated the man that was Joel Miller. 

  The man that had turned your world upside down the moment he stepped foot into your kitchen that he would soon remodel. The kitchen that you got to enjoy for just shy of a year after it was completed before selling your home and moving in with him. The newly remodeled kitchen being the major selling point. The smug look on his face when you got well over the asking price. The look that you so often indulged in wiping off his face when you had him writhing beneath you. This burly, breadth of a man that made you believe in love again. 

  He most certainly noticed on the first night of your vacation. The one you had both worked so hard for. 

  Secret Springs Resort

  An all inclusive beach resort vacation that he had meticulously planned down to the minute. Even the daily naps were planned because he knew how you could get bratty when you were tired. 

  It pained him the way you picked at your food and shuffled it around the plate as if he wouldn’t notice. 

  The way you squint your eyes in fake pleasure to signal that you enjoyed the bite. 

  The look he so often noticed at home during a meal or out to dinner but he so foolishly thought you would be care free while in this oceanic oasis.  

  The second night. 

  When you blamed the sun burn and your headache as to why you couldn’t eat much more than a few bites. The way your eyes watered when he moaned eating his steak and you stared longingly at the buttery garlic noodles that you wanted to dive headfirst into.  

  You said you were too full for dessert and yet Joel knew you better than that. A small sliver of hope when he let you feed him some ice cream, but his hopes quickly squashed when you had one bite and pushed it away. 

  The third day was your day to relax. No excursions planned and the weather far too hot to lay on the beach. Joel opted to lay among the sheets with you for most of the morning. His head resting between your plush thighs as you played with his thick curls. 

  The way it always started out so innocent and yet he could have you falling apart beneath him in minutes. 

  It’s the most relaxed he’s seen you this entire trip, and even if he dies for lack of oxygen he’ll never come up for air if it means seeing you like this. 

  It’s why he opts to spend the entire day taking full advantage of the luxury suite. Finding different ways to bend you over every surface of this room…the balcony, the couch, the bathroom sink. The shower steams until the mirror fogs over. Fucking and laughing until he thinks he may have pulled a muscle. The way you call him an old man in jest because he knows he could outlast you any day. 

  It’s why as he watches you sleep, your soft curves peeking out beneath the rumpled covers as the sun sets over the water he decides you’ll just complete the day inside. A quick call to room service and the woman on the other line doesn’t balk when he nearly orders everything on the menu. All your favorites so there’s no room for argument. In the safety of your private room, away from prying eyes so he can finally put a stop to whatever is holding you back. 

  It’s the smell that first wakes you first. In the quiet comfort of the sheets you get the hint of the savory aroma of fresh baked pizza and garlic bread. Your stomach growling and heart warming at the familiar smells that fill the air. You blink sleepily as your gaze falls on Joel, shirtless with his jeans hung low on his hips as he bustles around the room. Plates and silverware clinking as he sets up a small table on the balcony. 

  He turns with a gentle smile as he hears you rustling in the sheets. “Hey there, sleepyhead. I hope you’re hungry.”  

  Your eyes widen slightly at the sight of the spread. A large pizza with all your favorite toppings. One half with pineapple because Joel thought it was blasphemy. A steaming bowl of pasta with Parmesan cheese and marinara sauce. Golden slices of garlic bread arranged neatly on the side. 

  Your throat constricts with the unexpected sensation of gratitude and anxiety. 

  “You…you didn’t have to do all this.” You murmur, feeling a rush of vulnerability. 

  Joel strides over to you on the bed, draping the silky resort robe around your shoulders. “I know.” He says softly as he places a kiss on your forehead. “But I wanted to darlin’. Ya deserve to enjoy all your favorites without feeling self conscious.” 

  Tears well up in your eyes as you look up at him. Overwhelmed by his thoughtfulness, at the way he surprised you everyday. “Thank you.” You whisper, with a slight tremble. “It means a lot to me.” 

  He didn’t expect you to bend so easily, yet he’s relieved all the same. A sense of pride blooming in his chest as you sit together on the balcony sharing bites of pizza and stories about your past. Things you want for your future, some things he’s heard and some things he’ll pocket for later. 

  He can tell as the meal goes on and you relax that you want to say it. To tell him why you’re this way, but he already knows it’s him. The reason he had to break down so many walls. The man whose name is rarely mentioned in your home because anytime it is Joel wants to find a way to make him a missing person. 

  When he looks at you like you’ve hung the moon and the stars as he twirls the pasta on the plate and holds it out for you, like an olive branch to open up. 

  You start tentatively to explain your past insecurities. How your ex made you feel ashamed for enjoying food. How he always made sure you knew to eat less than him. 

  “I always felt like I had to justify why I ate.” You say quietly as you sip your water. “But you…you make me feel comfortable just being myself.” 

  Joel reached across the table to take your hand, placing a kiss to your palm. “You don’t ever have to justify anything with me baby.” He says earnestly. “I want you to be happy and feel good about yourself. You should cuz you’re fuckin perfect.” 

  You smiled gratefully as he wiped a stray tear from your cheek. You knew with Joel beside you, you could let go of old hurts and embrace moments like this. Where kindness, understanding and a simple meal could say so much more than words could express. 

Comments and reblogs are much appreciated

ranking baldur's gate characters by how i think they smell

#9) Minthara. Because she’s a corpse, next question.

#8) Lae'zel. You know this woman has never bathed. Washing is for the weak, is'tik. She says this is because needs her musk to attract mates but mostly it's cuz Gith education doesn't exactly make time for personal hygiene. Once it got so bad that Tav dragged the whole party through a chest-deep stream and stood there for 20 minutes to take a "breather" while Laezel stared daggers at them the whole time.

#7) Karlach. I want Karlach to smell nice so badly, and Karlach probably wants Karlach to smell nice too, but you know this woman smells like brimstone and engine exhaust and sweat. On good days she smells like the fine char you get on burgers on a summer day. On bad days she smells like a truck stop at peak hours, and the truck stop is also on fire. She's not happy about this either.

#6) Gale. Gale tries to keep himself groomed, he really does. But he looks like he is perpetually just a tiny bit smelly. Like he hyperfocused on a book slightly too hard for slightly too long and as a result he forgot to shower for a week. He acts like he bedded Mystra because of his towering intellect but really it's cuz gods don't have human senses of smell. His nightshirt looks velvet, too, and you KNOW it can't be easy to get smells out of that shit without a washer. He is one of those poor guys who is cursed to always stink a little bit no matter how much he showers. When Tav confronts him about this he decides, on the spot, that deodorant is for anti-intellectuals, actually, which he wouldn't have expected Tav to know but it's okay, we can't all be enlightened.

#5) Minsc. He doesn't reek exactly, but you know he's 100% man musk, hamster bedding, and butt-kicking

Tied for #5) Jaheira. You know 100 years of living in forests and adventuring with Minsc has endowed her with exactly the same level of manly perfume as Minsc (except with notes of cedarwood).

#4) Wyll. He used to be the best-smelling until Mizora pulled him through every level of hell in rapid succession, and now he smells a little bit like brimstone all the time. He sometimes rubs fragrant herbs on his horns to counteract it, which doesn't get rid of the smell, really, but it gives his smell an interesting dimension. Otherwise, he has enough experience with adventuring, and is well-bred enough, that him and his things are usually well-groomed (and also because his dad was a freak about it).

#3) Shadowheart. This woman puts on tragic makeup every morning and changes her hair to reflect her religion. Appearances are EVERYTHING (especially when it comes to keeping secrets). Shadowheart smells exactly like she thinks she needs to smell to be religiously pleasing to her goddess and/or coMplEtE thE mIsSioN. She does get anxious sweats though, which are very distinctive if it's been a long day of adventuring. She never admits this, though. Ever.

#2) Astarion. Okay, so, sometimes, he smells just the teensiest, tiniest bit like dried blood. But mostly, he smells like baby powder and potpourri. It is a waste of good fashion sense and his pretty face to go about stinking like a beggar. (He does go through a brief 'Cazador can't tell ME what to do' phase where he stops bathing for a day, but he grosses himself out so much that he resumes his normal routime before anyone notices.)

#1) Halsin. You'd expect him to stink, with his whole smelly-hippy free-love vibe, but nah. The man smells heavenly. He spends all his time frolicking through fragrant herbs and lounging in scented hot springs with whomever strikes his fancy. He probably has a whole ass medicine cabinet full of stuff he uses to freshen up. His breath probably smells like mint and his hair like cedar. He probably puts coconut oil or smth in his hair. He knows how to smell good as literally any animal in the realms. Wanna know why? Dogs have a sense of smell several thousand times better than people. I bet bears do, too. You do Not Fuck As A Bear without understanding not only how to WASH your ass, but also perfume it. Halsin also knows: thou shalt not give yeast infections. And if you got bear dick, that means HYGIENE. It's a point of pride for him, actually.

BONUS: WITHERS. Withers smells like nothing. Like, freakishly, unsettlingly like nothing. Like, you expect him to smell like dust or pitch or smth. Nope. He's a black hole of smell. You come near him and if you ask, he resets your entire hygiene routine for 100 gold and leaves you smelling like roses.

Idaho Tour Guide: the US's #1 secret tourist destination

By me, because I couldn't get it off my mind.

This is a summer plan. You should not do this in winter. Winter has amazing locales and activities, but those are best visited on a ski vacation or other winter sport touring. Especially if you've never driven in snow before, Idaho is best experienced from June to September.

If you're flying, fly into Salt Lake. Rent a car and drive to whichever city you want to make a base of. There is no public transportation in 95% of Idaho and the airports are expensive to fly in and out of, if there's even one in the area. Salt Lake and Northern Utah is a destination unto itself, but there's a lot of shared cultural identity between Northern Utah and Southeast Idaho. If you want to make a vacation along the Book of Mormon Corridor, it's 100% doable and I'm happy to make recommendations.

While it's possible to move from town to town every night, I'm using the traditional tourist model where you pick a base town and make day trips.

Idaho has tons of hot springs — more than any other state in America. While I've put a few on the list, feel free to add more.

There are tons of museums on this list, and even more not included. You're more likely to find a museum than a bar in many towns, so embrace the culture and take up museum crawling.

Base 1: Bear Lake (3-4 days)

Camp out on the lake, paddle board, go bird watching at the National Wildlife Refuge (NWR)

Take a day to visit Lava Hot Springs. This hot spring is commercially developed and has an onsen vibe... And a highway-crossing water slide.

Take a day to see the Chesterfield pioneer ghost town, see the manmade geyser in Soda Springs, and visit the Butch Cassidy Museum in Montpelier.

Visit Cache National Forest and tour Minnetonka Cave

Base 2: Driggs (2-3 days)

Spend the day driving Scenic Highway 26, hiking the Upper Palisades, and getting square ice cream in Swan Valley.

Book a hot air balloon ride for sunrise, tour the vodka distillery in the morning, and visit the Geotourism Center or Teton Valley Museum in the afternoon.

If you like hiking, the Darby Wind Caves hike, also called the Monument hike, is 6 miles and a hike almost every SE Idahoan goes on at some point in their lives.

Driggs is just across the Rockies from Jackson Hole, Grand Teton, and a few hours south of Yellowstone. If you want to jump over and add those, it's excellent, but know that Jackson (and Driggs) are expensive like ouch.

Base 3: Idaho Falls (6-8 days)

Spend a day in Ririe/Rigby. Stop at Heise hot springs for the morning for the small town swimming pool vibe, and tour the Farnsworth Museum to see where (and how) TVs were invented. Betcha didn't know TVs were invented in Idaho.

Take a day to see the LDS temple visitor center, the Museum of Idaho, and rent a full auto from Guns & Gear. Or spend your evenings doing one of each once you're back from your day trip. IF also has an excellent aquarium and a fantastic zoo, but they don't compare to Atlanta or Salt Lake, so use your time wisely.

Take a day for Blackfoot and Pocatello. See the Museum of Clean, the Potato Museum, try a double black diamond mountain biking trail, or gamble at Fort Hall's casinos.

Take a day and visit St. Anthony. Try dune buggy racing at the sand dunes, and go fishing up at Henry's Fork, or try out Bear World wildlife safari.

Take a day to museum crawl through Rexburg. See the Teton Dam Flood exhibit, visit BYU-I's numerous campus exhibits, and try out the university's ropes course.

Take a day for Arco. Hike through Crafters of the Moon National Monument, tour the old nuclear reactor ERB-1, and see the Devil Submarine.

If you can, visit Idaho Falls over the Fourth of July. It's the largest fireworks display west of the Mississippi.

No matter when you visit in summer, there's a good chance there's a rodeo happening nearby. If you can time it right, it's worth a day to see one.

Base 4: Salmon (4-6 days)

Drive from Idaho Falls through Spencer, to visit the opal mine where you can mine for pink opals in the only place they've ever been found.

Take a day to see Salmon; visit the Sacajawea Interpretive Center and the Lemhi County Museum.

Visit the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness, and/or hike to the primitive Goldbug Hot Springs.

Go whitewater rafting on the Salmon river. (It's in the top 3 whitewater rafting spots in the world!)

Base 5: Ketchum (4-11 days)

Visit Stanley — the coldest city in the Continental US — to see the Museum, stop at the Custer ghost town, and stay overnight in the US's only dark sky reserve.

Take a day (or a week) to hike the Sawtooths and the other five mountain ranges in the area.

Take a day to visit the Sun Valley resort; go to the spa, go ice skating (outdoors, year round), and eat at the restaurant. It is bougie and pricy, but it's world class bougie.

Museum crawl through Ketchum. They've got, like, a dozen museums there. Starbucks has an exhibit. I'm not joking.

Base 6: Twin Falls (4-5 days)

Spend a day in Twin. See the "Niagara of the West," see the Evel Knievel jump site, be a daredevil and go BASE jumping yourself (it's legal!), and see the Herrert Center for Arts and Science.

Head out to City of Rocks and spend the day bouldering in an internationally-recognized rock climber destination.

Spend a day or two in Hagerman and Thousand Springs. See the titular springs, the fossil beds, the fish hatchery, and, if you're too much of a chicken to try whitewater rafting on the Salmon, they've got beginner friendly rafting here.

Head north to Shonshone and see Minidoka NHS — a Japanese internment camp from WWII — and the Shoshone Ice Caves.

Base 7: Boise (5 days)

Hit the sand dunes at Bruneau; go sand boarding and visit the observatory.

Tour Boise's Old Penitentiary, visit the Basque Block, and see the Reptile Zoo or World Center for Birds of Prey

If you visit at the end of July or beginning of August, you might catch the Basque Festival — the largest in the US.

Spend a day wine tasting and touring Boise's wineries.

Take a day to see Hell's Canyon, the deepest Canyon in the US. You can go whitewater rafting, book a jet boat tour, hike from rim to river, or go petroglyph hunting.

Base 8: Moscow (3 days)

Stay at least one night in the Dog Bark Park Inn. Just look it up and tell me no.

Museum crawl! See the U-of-I arboretum, the Lewis and Clark center, the Appaloosa Museum (yes, there's a museum for that), and/or the Latah Historical Society.

Plan to visit Saint Maries Emerald Creek, where you can go rock hounding for star garnets (the only other place those exist are in India).

Spend a day road touring through Nez Perce NHS and bounce from Oregon to Montana in a single day.

If you want to stop in Missoula, MT, this is your chance. It's got a great bar scene, and noticably fewer museums.

Base 9: Coeur d'Alene (6-9 days)

Take a day, or three, and see Wallace. Tour the old silver mines, hike Pulaski Tunnel, bike Hiawatha, and visit the Silver Rapids water park.

Tour CDA; see the alpaca farm, the Old Mission, and, of course, the Museum of Northern Idaho.

Visit Silverwood Theme Park. It's the biggest in the Pacific Northwest.

Take a day to visit Coolin. Hike out to Roosevelt Grove of Ancient Cedars, see the Priest Lake Museum, and ride the natural water slide at Lionhead.

Take a day or two and see Sandpoint, the lake town, and take the Lake Pend Oreille lake cruise.

Drive up to Bonners Ferry to go huckleberry picking, drive the Selkirk Loop, and see the Boundary County Museum

Annnnnyway, Idaho is great, see ya bye

[cosmic-kid-in-motion]

Hey roman my head is in monster land apparently since it's spring??? I have no idea why

anyway

Triple frontier boys as monsters. Now, we all know they would make a HELL of a werewolf pack (who would be alpha??)

But as individuals, do you see any of them as a vampire orrrr orrr idk i have monsters on the brain. Maybe it's from fen's spinny wheel thing

Answer at your leisure

OKAY SOOOOO!

FIrst of all bless @my-secret-shame-but-fanfiction for the wheels and games. so fun.

second lets talk wolfgang

So, lemme plug @oliveksmoked for their triple frontier series, alpha, which explores the team with a/b/o dynamics. Olive and I were chatting about this in regards to rooms on fire, they said that the team in that series gives of a/b/o, but lacking an alpha. That Beatriz was the alpha, and she died, and Santi WANTS to be the alpha, but he doesn't have IT hence everyting falling apart under his nose and paranoia.

i think, In regards to TF (outside of ROF and other series), Santi is the leader. I think by the time we find them, Tom's been out of the game too long and Santi has stepped to that. I know some people think frankie is more the leader but thats laughable at best. Some people think its Will, but thats not it either. Will and Frankie have their own important roles in group cohesion, as does Ben, but it's not leadership. In a wolfpack, Santi is the alpha.

Now. As MONSTERS?!?!?!?!

I think @missdictatorme had the idea of mothman Frankie and i cant get this genius out of my head ;-; God, just imagine. Years ago I read a werewolf frankie one shot??? but i cant remember who or even what happened besides wolf sex. Pedro played a vampire twice i think but I cant see it in frankie

Santi just gives werewolf to me. I think it's bc he's so similar to Marc and there was that mark werewolf series, but i think the grey streaks in his hair just SCREAM wolfy. Watch he way he walks, it's like he's on the prowel.

Ben gives vampire vibes. Now, theres a history of gay vampires and camp and yall knooooooow Ben is queer to me, but I think Ben has the most obvious charm. Frankie gets the hoes with his puppy boy eyes. Santi bc he's a hot slut. Will puts on the oldschool charm, but BEN I think is really the only one that can truly flirt. He wouldn't be edward cullen type.

WILL

God I'm struggling with Will tbh ;-;

dolli maybe you got something for me? or Fen? OR SOMEONE? It's v rare i can imagine him dark. I think his darkness in ROF was a different sort. Monster fucking isnt neccecarily dark and but it can be kinda those gothic themes. He's just so in control, I think I could really only see vampire as well.

[sitp-recs]

Favourite Drarry recs (long fics maybe? pretty please?) that are ideally to enjoy this Spring season ?

Hello again! That’s a great ask - I have a long fic rec list that you might find interesting, but this inspired me to do something more specific with Spring vibes feat house renovations, cooking as love language, gardening, domesticity, no angst romance etc etc etc. This is 100% based on my own perception of spring vibes btw, but I hope you’ll enjoy these as much as I did!

💐 Short fic:

magic in the making by @getawayfox (G, 2k)

I didn’t see Malfoy for a year after the trial. When Gin told me that, according to Pansy, he had opened a little posh bakery in Mayfair, I thought she was joking, so I went to see for myself.

Market Saturdays by @sorrybutblog (M, 3k)

In which Harry is an accidental part-time cheesemonger, Draco is an organic farmer and they fall in love. Not an AU.

The Long Fall by @tackytigerfic (M, 3.6k)

It's supposed to be a simple house renovation, and maybe it's just the paint fumes, but Harry is feeling dizzy around Draco Malfoy. And what's the real meaning of family, anyway?

Ice Snakes, Glow-worms and Wolverine Stew by khalulu (M, 8k)

Harry Potter apparently wants to talk to Draco about something, but odd events keep getting in the way of that conversation – and bringing them closer together. Featuring serpentine travels, misbehaving birds, dubious roofing projects, a gay beach, and an unexpected matchmaker.

Life goes not backward by @shealwaysreads (T, 9k)

Harry still isn’t used to gifts, but this one is different. A story of coming home, finding safe ground, and the wild courage of putting down roots.

A Truth Universally Acknowledged by @sorrybutblog (M, 17k)

A year out from the war, Harry agrees to accompany Hermione on a historical walking tour of Pride and Prejudice. Not in the itinerary: running into Draco Malfoy, setting off a summer of stately homes, lavish parties, resentful shagging, and maybe, falling in love.

amid this warm and steady sweetness, orphaned (E, 21k)

Harry is not living in a period drama, no matter what his friends or his new house or Malfoy’s sudden affinity for horse-riding might suggest, and if one more person uses the word courting, he’s going to start hexing people.

💐 Long fic

Moldova's Magical Tea by @aibidil (E, 32k)

Neville Longbottom, Luna Lovegood, and—to everyone’s surprise—Draco Malfoy are opening a magical tea shop to revive wizarding tea culture and, hopefully, to bring the community together after the war. Harry, who is unemployed and trying to find his way in post-war society, wants to help his friends with their new business—but that means spending a lot of time around Malfoy.

Clouds That Veil the Midnight Moon by @drarrytrash (E, 36k)

According to Harry’s personal narrative regarding the incident, he’d hooked up with Draco Malfoy for purely self-destructive reasons, or out of convenience, or by some unlucky accident. Looking at him, sprawled in the moonlight, Harry is devastated to recall that he’d hooked up with Draco Malfoy because he’s hot.

Follow the Water by @xanthippe74 (T, 40k)

Harry Potter’s life is fine. Maybe a little dull and predictable, but he shouldn’t complain about that, right? When he unexpectedly finds himself at Luna’s house one afternoon, Harry gets invited to join the secret wonderland that she’s creating with a surprising group of friends. Maybe a summer outdoors is just what a former hero needs to bring some zest back into his life.

Through the May Air, Over the Ocean by tsauergrass (T, 45k)

Draco Malfoy never expected to find himself in Scotland or being stuck in a cottage with Potter—but wonders never cease. A story about warmth, a story about falling back in love. A story about a flock of sheep in the distant fells of Scotland.

Our Objective Remains Unchanged by @citrusses (E, 46k) - Muggle AU

Harry Potter, returning member of the Oxford University Boat Club, has two goals for the spring of 2005: beat Cambridge, and beat Draco Malfoy. Perhaps not in that order.

Sweeten to Taste by @saintgarbanzo, @babooshkart (E, 51k)

It starts with Draco's buckwheat crepes with honeyed oranges. Or maybe it starts with his porridge with toasted walnuts and homemade apple butter. Or perhaps it starts with the cinnamon buns Draco made from scratch with mascarpone icing. Harry just knows he's hungry for more.

Against All Odds by momatu (E, 54k)

Beauxbatons is hosting the first ever Quidditch Summer School for children from all over Europe, and Harry has promised to enroll Teddy as his birthday present. Meanwhile, Draco is stuck in his office, putting together the first ever Quidditch Summer School for children from all over Europe during, when he should be enjoying summer holidays.

What Branches Grow by @the-fools-errand (M, 55k)

When a run-of-the-mill investigation turns up evidence that the Death Eaters may be resurfacing, Harry seems to be the only one who believes Malfoy has anything to do with it. Yet according to official records, he’s been the poster child for the Ministry’s post-war Rehabilitation program, living in a small muggle town in Wales.

Meet Me at Midnight by @the-starryknight (T, 57k)

Harry was beginning to wonder if he’d ever make anything again when Malfoy stormed through the door of Harry’s furniture shop. Now Harry’s got an impossible Ministry commission to finish, and even less energy than ever to deal with his elusive muse. That is, until he stumbles upon the surreal and beautiful world of a mysterious fae creature…

Stately Homes of Wiltshire by waspabi (E, 58k)

Malfoy Manor has mould, dry rot and an infestation of unusually historical poltergeists. Harry Potter is on the case.

The Promise of Summer by Omi_Ohmy (M, 66k)

How was Harry supposed to know that coming back for eighth year would be so confusing? Everything is the same, and yet not the same. And nowhere is this more obvious than with Draco Malfoy. Harry finds himself once more watching and following Malfoy, trying to work him out. When they are drawn together to heal the castle, Harry doesn’t just find Malfoy - he also finds himself.

Home Truths by @skeptiquewrites and @fantalfart (E, 67k)

In the off-season Harry decided to fix up Grimmauld Place and found that Draco Malfoy was the only person who could help him. A demanding career and unrelenting press scrutiny were enough to deal with before Harry added a house with a mind of its own, family history, and a tense, flirty, complicated relationship with his childhood nemesis to the mix.

The Claiming of Grimmauld Place by @bixgirl1 (E, 74k)

When Grimmauld Place begins fighting against Harry’s ownership of it, he decides he needs help to train the historic home — but little does he expect that it’ll be Malfoy who’s most suitable for the challenge. However, as Malfoy and Harry get closer, Harry comes to understand that expectations aren’t always the best path by which to guide his heart — and in the process learns just what is needed to make a house a home.

Knead by laughingd0g (E, 83k)

This is not a story about Harry renovating Grimmauld Place. This is a story about coffee shops and brewpubs, about Ginny and Luna on a farm with creatures, about magical Oregon, coastal road trips, flying, friendship, and Draco Malfoy's lean arms.

Wild, orphaned (E, 92k)

“No,” Harry said, by way of greeting. Malfoy’s blonde head rose slowly, carelessly. “Get out.” “I feel as though we’ve already established this, Potter,” Malfoy responded. “And I feel that what we established was that you telling me to get out of places really doesn’t make me more likely to vacate them.”

Little Deaths and How to Avoid Them (or Draco Malfoy's Guide to Stop Dying and Start Living Instead) by nerakrose, dustmouth (T, 96k)

Malfoy is way too interested in coroner reports for somebody who's definitely not looking for ways to die, Harry wants to be friends with him, and Ginny wants to break up with Harry.

The Liars Department by @dorthyanndrarry (T, 103k)

This is a story about Harry meeting up with Draco Malfoy four years after the war. And a story about Harry, well, not hating his job per say, but it's not like he has much to compare it to and it seemed fine. His whole life seemed fine. Then Malfoy came along with and his flashy suits and fast car making everything seem dull in comparison, and Harry... Harry couldn't just leave well enough alone.

Any Instrument by @dictacontrion (E, 131k)

Draco Malfoy wouldn't go back to England for anything less than an exceptional case. Being asked to figure out why Harry Potter can't control his magic might be exceptional enough to qualify.

[pumpkabitch]

Here are my ideas for if the Stardew Valley Bachelor(ette)s had Pokémon

Abigail: Pumpkaboo. She loves pumpkins and spooky stuff, it only makes sense. She also has a Mismagius that she cares for in secret, cause she's not sure her parents would approve a more "witchy" Pokémon

Emily: Oricorio. Obviously had to be a bird, and I thought Oricorio would be fun for Emily, dancing along with her, but which version? I'm tied between Pom-pom and Pa'u style, leaning Pa'u

Haley: Sunflora, obv. She saw an article when she was young about the prettiest Pokémon, and begged her parents to get her a Sunflora. Well all they could find was a Sunkern. Haley was disappointed at first, this wasn't the pretty Pokémon she was promised, but they grew close and she cried when it evolved. They go for walks together and sun on the beach

Leah: Smeargle, we all know this. She adopted her off the streets of Zuzu City, and it was tough for both of them when they moved to the Valley, but ended up loving the forest. They will sometimes collab on art pieces (Leah carving, Smeargle painting it)

Maru: she was tough, because I think there are so many good options, but I settled on Beldum, who will eventually evolve into Metang then Metagross. I think her parents are wary at first, asking if she's sure she wants something so big, but Maru is like "are you kidding? It's perfect!"

Penny: again, a little tough, but I settled on Buneary. He plays around with the kids, cuddles up with Penny while she's reading, and follows her around everywhere

Alex: Machoke. Another pretty basic one, but I think he's also very handy around the house, helping Alex's grandparents too. They lift weights together and soak in the hot springs, the perfect bro

Elliott: he has a West Sea Gastrodon. They vibe together on the beach

Harvey: Lucario- HEAR ME OUT! Harvey found a Riolu during his pre-med years and was like "I can't take care of him, I'll just house him until I can find him a real owner". Turns out, Riolu is good at running around and grabbing Harvey things he needs (he's not the most tidy person, Riolu was the only thing keeping his glasses on his face and not in the fridge). They grew super close, and he ended up evolving into Lucario when he graduated med school. Lucario helps at the front when Maru isn't there, and is just a good assistant for Harvey at the clinic. Bonus: he has heal pulse

Sam: Yamper. You know I'm right. In a few years she's going to evolve into Boltund and Sam will be psyched

Sebastian: I think Frogadier. He plays in the lake while Seb smokes, and also I think if Frogadier were human they would hit the bong together. Tell me I'm wrong

Shane: he doesn't actually have a Pokémon of his own, but Jas' Hoppip really likes him and will sometimes follow him to work if Jas is in school. He helps take care of the ranch animals with Marnie, of course, but doesn't think he's good enough to have his own Pokémon

[tsunderelover07]

Matchup with @firstdivisiongirl

Hello my friend! Im super excited to do my first matchup with you! This has been so exciting. It was a tough choice, but I hope you enjoy!

Thank you for my matchup! I was tickled pink to get Toma Hiragi. And Id have to agree about the Umemiya vibes. 🤣 I was joking with my bestie about how Umemiya and I could easily pass off as being brother and sister and no one would question it.

For you I chose...

Kiryu Mitsuki!

You're soft, quiet, and closed off until you get to know people - but Kiryu doesn't mind in the slightest. He finds your cute chin length bob precious and your style reminds him of Jennie Kim from BlackPink.

Also, this boy always has a little case of Bobby pins, so if you need one, hes got you. And if you do his hair for him? Hes estactic.

He would take the time to make you feel comfortable around him, and let's face it - this boy is so soft and sweet, hes making you feel like a princess from day one. He knows how to treat ladies.

He figures out that youre a hopeless romantic and there's no chance. Hes surprising you with a single rose and a love letter. Hes putting secret notes in your textbooks so you randomly find them. He will spring sweet words and compliments on you thats sure to leave your heart hammering away and make roses cheeks permanent upon your face.

Once you start dating and he finds out youre not into PDA, hes cool with it. Hes cool with just the casual soft touches, like tapping your arm or shoulder to get your attention to show you something cute while shopping. Gently grabbing your waist and swap sides because he follows the sidewalk rule. No exeptions and just holding hands would be more than enough. Hes happy to be by your side.

Also, if anyone, ANYONE dares to hurt you? They better start praying because Kiryu is gonna snap. No one messes with his girl. Pray he never comes across your ex. Hes gonna break his jaw.

Behind closed doors? Oh boy...you become his favorite pillow. He will cuddle and lay on you, have you on his lap, teach you any game you want, pepper you with kisses - youre never NOT going to feel loved. He leaves the control in your hands.

I also firmly believe Kiryu is extremely ticklish, so its your secret weapon against getting your way if he says its too hot out to go shopping and he just wants to be lazy, cuddled up with you all day.

Dates would be cute, and he would be looking up all the trends just so he could spoil you.

Oh and matching outfits? Hes sold instantly.

[propheticfire]

Having thoughts/vibes about Halsin as the Oak King and Astarion as the Holly King. Originally wrote this on Twitter but I've cleaned it up a bit and am posting here too. Halsin as the Oak King because obviously? Astarion as the Holly King is a bit of a stretch, but doable.

I just find the Oak King & Holly King story enchanting. Of course I'm super soft so I prefer the version where they transfer power peacefully rather than fight to the death for it 😂 I don't think that's unreasonable in our modern age. And I'm not even invested in the change in power so much as I enjoy the character archetypes themselves. One king full of life and vigor who presides over the light half of the year, and one more secretive and subtle who rules the dark half.

Halsin as the Oak King is pretty obvious: his association with the Oak Father, fighting the darkness shadow curse, and his literal embodiment of druidry in canon. The Oak King/Holly King story isn't specifically druidic, historically, but it's popular in many neopagan traditions. Halsin is full of life and vigor. Of the fertile wildness of spring and summer. He cares for things that grow and thrive in the wilderness, and has little desire to temper his hot-blooded nature. He's so passionate and it shows in everything he does. Very Oak King of him.

Astarion as the Holly King is less about the obvious parallels and more based on vibes, plus the fact that I need someone to balance Halsin's Oak King plus I ship them, but there are still valid comparisons, I think, that can be made.

The Holly King rules the dark half of the year, the time when the plants die and fall dormant, domestic cattle were traditionally slaughtered, and the land and the people rest. It wasn't guaranteed that you'd survive through fall and winter, so death was even more on people's minds. Darkness and death and blood are the obvious comparisons, with Astarion being a vampire. Holly berries symbolize blood (that of Christ) in some Christian traditions, and the holly's evergreen nature can be compared to undeath. Astarion veils his intentions and motivations and actions, and moves in the shadows. He's learned to make the darkness—both literal and metaphorical—his own. He excels in it.

It's hard, though, to talk about Astarion's skills and penchants without acknowledging the centuries he spent as Cazador's slave. It wasn't really by choice that he developed the tendencies he did. And he loves the sun, he really does.

But I don't think that's antithetical to the Holly King. In the midst of darkness, on what's supposed to be the Holly King's height of power, on the winter solstice, we celebrate the return of the sun. And then the darkness wanes, until the Holly King gives up his power once more. And no matter what in-game path you choose—whether he gets his chance from seizing more power and ascending, or from the promise of continued adventure and undiscovered possibilities—Astarion still gets excited over the thought of returning to the sun.

That was much longer than I intended, oops. But there are my thoughts on Halsin as the Oak King and Astarion as the Holly King. Gosh I wish I had the patience and energy to draw them like that. I'd make them so regal and stuffed with symbolism.

[the-silver-peahen-residence]

So Yuji, how exactly did you break out of your restraints and get Megumi to confess during the spring break? How did you punish Megumi?

@chunibyo-x-sorcerer

"How did I break out of them? well, infusing cursed energy tends to help but...I have other ways to make it work even when it came to punishing those two naughty pets of mine." he said thinking about it.

"Honestly it worked for me."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

During the time Megumi was waiting for Kisho to return, he was wondering how Yuji was. Given they left him to take a slight break. He also wonders how he feels about this. "Hmmm..I did warn Kisho about it and his reaction. Guess he was right. His words were correct. I guess after we are done we can give Yuji our sorry when we untie him..or maybe he wouldn't mind." he mutters though, his eyes looks to see the door to the room where Yuji is held.

Was he alright in there? He knew he shouldn't go in there alone due to what happened. Though, he still had to be sure he was alright. "Maybe a peek..I'm sure he will be alright.. "he said standing up to check on him. As Megumi gets to the door, he gently opens it and looks inside.

Yuji was sitting on the bed still yet he was looking down. Seems like he still was silent. Or was he just still heated after? Even when he saw he didn't look up. "Yuji? You alright in here?" he asked yet Yuji didn't speak.

"......."

Megumi didn't know why but it's like trespassing on a tiger's home land. Something just felt off knowing he was giving off this vibe of being punished. He walks over to him but he goes to check on him.

"Yuji?"

Being slow, he walks over to him to stand by the bed seeing the tiger. However, his eyes saw his body. The muscles that still remain to the sweat seen on his skin. It made him blush only to see his cock pulsing wanting to punish anything.

"......."

With a shaky hand, he reaches to look at Yuji wondering if he was alright. He didn't answer him so maybe he was okay. "Y..Yuji?" he asked but as soon as his hand touched his cheek............

A hand grabs his wrist to make him tense as he was pulled on the bed pinned down. He winces from the hold only to open his eyes shaking seeing a now heated hungry Tiger above him.

"Y...Yuji!? How did you-"

".....Maybe you should have used a more stronger type of material to keep me down but......." he leans in closer to look him dead in the eyes that Megumi's eyes widen.

"You should have know that..haven't you, naughty pup?" he growls making Megumi gulp slowly shaking. Yeah, he was not happy but he was also very heated while feeling his body growing weaker under this tiger.

"Y..Yuji p..please...I can explain-"

"That's Itadori-sama pup.......remember that." he growls seeing the other whimper under him. However, Yuji looks to him to keep him pinned. Megumi could feel his hard cock pulsing wanting to ram into him, the tip slick with pre-cum.

"I..Itadori-s..sama....."

"You have no idea...what you two did to me...I feel so hot...and hungry to pound you into this bed till your begging for me.....even now. I wanna mark your body with my fingers, teeth, and cum.." he panted that Megumi was shaking growing wet and almost clamping on air. He was dangerous when hungry in heat.

"Now........you are going to tell me everything. What did you and Kisho do during the weeks? How long have you been keeping this all a secret from me? Hmm?" he asked yet Megumi was nervous.

"I....I don't know if I should say. We were...I was just trying to help him and he just-" that's when Yuji growls again only to let his wrists go and grip his clothes to rip them off. His eyes widen again with a startled gasp of fear but a mix of arousal. Even when seeing he's bear but he tries to move only to get pinned again by him. However, he grips his slender waist keeping the shaking puppy where he was.

"Tell me, Megumi...or else." he warns.

"I..Itadori s..sama please...I......Please have m..mercy I..we didn't mean to disobey. We just-" that's when he yelps feeling the smack to his ass making Megumi hiss.

"Tell me......Now." he said as Megumi was crying out taking the punishment of being a bad puppy. Megumi yelps from each smack but it leaves him more aroused as his moans were growing louder each time. Yuji even speeds up that Megumi was crying out shaking.

"Talk pup! NOW!" he said smacking his ass that Megumi moans cumming hard on the bed.

"O..Okay okay! Kisho had a idea of wanting to do private relief sessions with me even after you told him not to. He was j...just on edge after you t..threatened him with a punishment mmmmm!!" he squirms but Yuji keeps holding him.

"......"

"I told him h..he was crazy to do this....but I s..said I would hel..help him. It was his idea a..and...we just....we couldn't stop. The pleasure got too good w....we couldn't control ourselves I..Itadori sama..." he said shaking yet Yuji was squeezing his ass.

"P..Please....were sorry for disobeying y..you...w..we just w..wanted r..relief...w..we wanted it so b..badly we..."

"..You decided to disobey me." he said but Megumi slowly nods that he chuckled darkly to look at him.

"Poor puppy....I never expected you to be so naughty..even when you been a bad..naughty....dog!" he said to smack his ass again getting a yelp.

"I..I'm s..sorry Itadori s..sama..I'm s..sorry for disobeying y..you.." he whimpers but Yuji only smiled.

"I know.....but that's too bad.." he said now showing himself that Megumi's eyes widen seeing how big, hard, and thick he was......

"Because I have to punish you both for that...and look.......your first." he growls licking his lips.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"So...as a good pup, he told me everything. Their little deal with working together to relieve themselves. While doing it behind my back. All those weeks of being a 'good boy' for them only got me seeing they were doing naughty stuff behind my back." He sighed yet Yuji only chuckled.

"But I'll admit. I was impressed. They were able to do this without me knowing and I'm usually the one that does it. Though, after he told me...I was already thinking of ways to punish him."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"I..ITADORI S.SAMA PLEASE H..HAVE M..MERCY!! I CAN'T TAKE ANYMORE!!" Megumi moans feeling another harsh bite on his rear from the tiger as he was fingering him roughly while even eating him out.

He keeps thrusting his fingers into him deeper and harder before he stops to open him up seeing the hand prints on his ass. His finest work. He already wanted to fuck him but he only makes Megumi turn to face him.

"Mercy? Oh no no my puppy..you are in sooooo much trouble. Even when you both were pleasing one another. Even making fun of me thinking you can fuck or play with the other better. Even having the guts to you both leaving your tiger out of it. That's not nice." he said in a cold heated tone that Megumi was shaking from his dom's expression.

"B..b..but.....but we were just-" that's when he yelps again being fingered again with moans bursting out past his lips. He bucks his hips back only for Yuji to smack his rear again with a yelp. "Ow!"

"No butts pup..when Kisho comes back..I'll be sure he is punished.....though..as for you.." That's when he makes Megumi stand on his knees at the edge of the bed with his throbbing cock in between his cheeks. "I want my snack...and I want it now!"

As Megumi tries to talk, Yuji slams deeply into him that the bed slams against the wall.

"Ahhhh F..fuck!!!!!" Right away, Megumi cums again but he shook, hearing a long heated growl of arousal from the tiger.

"Grrrooaaa......s..so tight...it's been too damn long since I been inside this naughty hole, puppy." he said seeing Megumi twitching thanks to it.

I..Ita...dori s..sama....p...please......." He moans out softly with eyes half way open but reaching out. That's when Yuji only hold his wrists down to see Megumi panting seeing Yuji like he was going to eat him.

"......Theirs no more please pup.....for right now..I want you to beg." he growls.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"So, even with that, I made sure he begs for mercy and my forgiveness..but...punishing and pounding into him was so good..I couldn't stop." he said remembering.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yuji was growling slamming deeper and deeper into a now crying dazed Megumi. He couldn't run away feeling him being tied down thanks to some bonding ropes. His screams so desire echoing through the room.

"Itadori s..sama!! Itadori sama! T..too rough! Your going to break me again!! Please hhaaa I said I was.." as he begs for him to forgive, he screams out in a trance drooling. His green eyes glowing while showing the now ripped up pillow as he takes the tiger's thrusts.

Yuji was groaning not easing up on the jackhammering of his hips. He missed being in this hole but he only keeps a good firm grip on his thighs while he was moaning like he was in heat.

"ITADORI SAMAAAA!!!"

"That's right..keep screaming it pup..I'll make sure you don't forget this punishment. I'll make sure you remember your place! Do you understand me?" he growls against his hickey covered shoulder and neck as Megumi gasped out lustfully drooling.

"Ahhhhh ahhhhh Y..Yesssss m..master itadori! Y..Yes I understand just k...keep fucking me! Fuck me as much as you want!!" he begs only to feel him slam his hips back as Yuji growls almost clawing into Megumi's skin claiming his pup after so long.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"So I fucked him nice and rough....to remind him not to disobey me. Or else. However, I left him there so if that naughty bird shows he will see...I made sure I filled him with so much cum it was dripping out on that bed. And I knew when I got Kisho...he will feel the same....." he said excited.

Nancy Drew Games: timeline

I made this timeline only to realize afterwards that a list like this already existed, in greater detail.

One thing really stands out to me which is the lack of autumn games!  I’m surprised because fall has the perfect spooky vibes.

Winter

-Last Train (not sure when but it’s cold)

-Royal Tower (not sure when but it’s cold)

-Haunted Mansion (Definitely winter.  Everyone is going to the Winter Festival, and Charlie is studying for finals.  End newspaper says Mar. 3.)

-Sea of Darkness (January.  Based on Soren’s notes.)

-White Wolf (Jan. 18.  Bill and Lou checked in a week ago on Jan. 11.  Elsa's quitting letter was Jan. 15 and Lupe said Elsa left 3 days ago.)

-Phantom of Venice (In Helena’s notes, one of her story ideas is “Global Warming vs. Venice.”  The game takes place during Carnivale, in Aquarius season, but the vibes feel much warmer and summery.)

-Captive Curse (Mar. 12)

Spring

-Kapu Cave (Shortly after Apr. 9, though calendar still says March.  I read online that peak pineapple season starts in March.)

-Secret of the Scarlet Hand (April)

-Ghost Dogs (Taurus season)

-Old Clock (May 7)

-Trail of the Twister (May 20-25)

-Castle Malloy (May 28)

-Crystal Skull (May 31)

-Haunted Carousel (Seems to be early June.  Joy's calendar has 30 days, Harlan's agenda was opened to early June, email printouts were from early June.)

-Deception Island (Jun. 17)

Summer

-Water’s Edge (June-September, based on brochure)

-Labyrinth of Lies (July?)

-Silent Spy (July?)

-Alibi in Ashes (Aug. 17-18)

-Danger by Design (Aug. 28)

-Secrets Can Kill Remastered (Virgo season.  Hot in Florida.)

-Shadow Ranch (Sept. 15-17 according to plane tickets.  Sept. 17 is the anniversary of Dirk’s demise.  Hot in Arizona.)

Fall

-Deadly Device (Is actually Oct. 28/29.  But vibes are more wintry.)

-Thornton Hall (Scorpio season)

-Stay Tuned (Nov. 13-15)

-Waverly Academy (Is actually Nov. 21-23.  But vibes are more wintry.)

Unknown

-Final Scene (Some people have theorized it takes place between Royal Tower and Scarlet Hand.  So between December and April.)

-Blackmoor Manor (Some people have theorized it takes place during Sagittarius season, based on Mrs. Drake’s letter.  But other people think it’s spring based on the frogs.)

-Lost Queen (Unknown.  Hot location, good to play in summer.)

-Shattered Medallion (Unknown.  Hot location, good to play in summer.)

Hetalia Stardew Mod Summary Hot Link

Characters (Will be updated as it's posted) America Canada

Mod Details (Note all of this only exist inside my head unfortunately)- All Characters are Romanceable. They have no rival love interest and they will not lose their personality or hobbies after marriage so you don’t feel like you ruined their lives or stole them away from anyone. They will for the most part carry on as usual just with a bit more favor towards you New Events: Firework Festival- Takes place on Summer 4. This event is only attended by The Hetalia characters living in Cindersnap Forest. You Enter Cindersnap Forest at 10PM-12PM on Summer 4 to Trigger the Event. Brew Fest- A mock Octoberfest held at the Café where they all drink coffee instead of beer Enter Cindersnap Forest on Fall 6 at 9AM-3PM to trigger the event. Must be downloaded alongside the: More Crops Mod and Even More Crops Mod to get required ingredients for recipes & Stardew expanded for the space upgrade. The town of Cindersnap can function as your main source of shopping & Conversation Much like how Ridgeside Village & Stardew Valley operate. The characters do converse with the Main Stardew folk but for the most part do their own things. New Buildings: Houses with secret rooms, locked doors and Easter eggs. Maybe you click on a globe in someone’s house and it says “It’s a circle, that’s the earth”.

Cindersnap Coffee House: This is a Café/Bakery that is directly contributed to by each member of the Cindersnap Forest dwellers. Their Role with the bakery will be listed within their bio if they have one. Here you can buy coffees, Latte’s, Matcha, Mochas, and espresso shots along with few new Items like: Croissants, Tiramisu, Pretzel, Apple Pie, Cannoli, Blueberry Scone, Custard, Sugar Pie, Bee Sting Cake, Red Bean,  Buns and Cheesecake that are nods to the Hetalia character’s origins and their recipes can only be obtained from befriending a certain character. The Café/bakery is Owned and Operated by multiple characters.

Brew House- At 7pm all the Characters of Cindersnap disappear into the back room of the Coffee House. Where a Speak Easy is hidden and they will stay there hanging out until 11 and then will all go home. You can only get an invite by getting at least 6 hearts with everyone in town and then you will get an anonymous letter giving you the password saying you have passed the vibe check. Inside you can buy Alcohol from Romano who works the bar because the Coffee House does not have their liquor license and they have to operate this underground.

The Ranch-ery- Owned and Operated by Alfred & Matthew. Matthew runs the counter on Thursdays & Tuesdays and the store will operate as a Nursery and sell only trees, fruit trees and berry, herb bushes (See More crops+ mod) You can buy singular fruit here but the prices are steep you are better off just buying the sapling itself. Alfred operates on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. Open from 9am-5pm Monday-Saturday and the shop will operate as a Ranch selling full grown cows, milk, milk buckets, hay, and heaters. The store is closed on Sunday.

Mystic Brews- An oddities shop located inside the wizards tower ran by a shadow creature that you can only gain access to only after befriending England, It focuses on gems, mushrooms, potions and some very rare items like the magic wand for a hefty sum. Seeds n’ Such- a general store with all your seasonal seed needs operated by China. Not much to say about it it’s a pretty straight forward shop.

Paella Stand- in the summer/spring Spain comes to town from Calico dessert to run his street food cart he will live here in town for these two seasons but he doesn’t like the cold so he will go back to Calico in the fall/winter. He sells churros, paella and spiced hot chocolate. All these foods give major speed and energy boosts but the catch is you can’t buy it with money and similar to the trader in Calico to have to trade him for gems.
