Happy 5 year anniversary to the first time I borrowed @vicekillx 's Xerxes and smashed him together with my Ketna.

Cropped for tumblr, the full version can be found on on Pillowfort, Bluesky, or on my Website.

When I first started drawing this late last month I was just trying to make a nice portrait for Leyvellete last month. And then it turned into a whole… Thing… And now it's a pinup. (once again abusing the satin gradient map to make things look fancier than it actually is)

Took about 17 hours total though that also includes the time it took to draw and redraw a few different portraits and figure out what I'm doing.

(a nude version will eventually be posted on my other socials)

Monster Creator Server

Any mutuals interested in a Creator-Focused 'Monster' Discord server? (monster includes a wide-array of non-humans, aliens, robots, creatures, and so on. appreciators included.)

There are a lot monster servers out there but I find very little that focus on creators, so I'm making one…

I want to connect with as many forms of creation as I can. Visual, Literary, Acting, and so on.

Eventually I would like to run challenges and art games, like using the art scuffle bot

I also have TupperBot for RP zones.

DM invites for now. Will eventually open to the public.

A Call For Recommendations

Okay, I am looking for fiction recommendations that meet some very specific criteria and am open to suggestions/gratuitous self-promo. It can be free or paid. 

Requirements- The fiction MUST contain:

A cis/hetero core pairing, (only the core pairing needs to be F/M, the characters can be bi or pan) with the focus on the woman both sexually and narratively

Both parties have equal autonomy/power (battle couples are ideal) 

Be sexually explicit.

^ These are a must, I will not check out anything that does not hit these elements, at minimum.

Preferences- What will draw me into the story:

Have an engaging setting or plot, such that the character relationship isn't the only thing to worry about.

Relationship reads more like ride or die friends with benefits than a romance.

Man top, Woman bottom; I'm really not that interested in Femdom. (The stuff I write with Ketna and Xerxes is about as far as I'll dip into it.)

Set in the future/space (I am more flexible with this criteria, than the others)

Applies to something in the 'nonhuman' realm. I prefer the woman to be human and the man to be nonhuman or both the characters being non-human. I generally have less interest in a human man with a non-human woman, but if it hits the rest of the markers I'd be up for it. Likewise I'll even take a human/human story if it hits all my markers.

Caveats- I won't check out anything that contains:

2nd Person Perspective

Major conflicts related to jealousy or miscommunication. (Emphasis on major conflict, I have no issue with characters experiencing jealousy or having a miscommunication, I just don't want whole plot points about assumed cheating or other typical romance contrivance)

Anything in the No Section of my F-List. f-list . net/c/ladylibido

Examples of the ballpark of what I'm looking for: The FemShep/Garrus romance track in the Mass Effect games. Mr & Mrs Smith movie if it had full sex scenes.

Recommendations I've received thus far:

An American Werewolf in Space by Alisha Sunderland

I've had this dumb thing in my head for a bit now. Spousal Privilege is a great way to ensure all their conversations remain confidential and more difficult to use for testimony. (not full-proof I know, but hey any advantage is still an advantage.)

Something something legally recognized ownership of another person. Something something, indentured servitude isn't legal, but this is as close as it gets.

The real question is, does Ketna's cover identity's name get to keep the last name or will she take Xerxes' first name as her last name.

Xerxes belongs to @vicekillx

It's closing in toward the end of Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week and I doubt I'll get this fic finished by sunday so I'll share this one particular scene with R'Vindr and Ketna that matters a lot to me.

R'Vindr is aromantic with a disinterest, boarding on aversion, to acts/displays of affection. But he still cares in his own way. I wanted to write something that shows the way they interact despite having very different needs and boundaries when it comes to affection. That sort of low/no affection aromantic with no desire for a committed relationship (but also isn't antagonistic), while also being very sexually motivated, is something I don't see very much.

And narratively it works as a great way to introduce Wojciech.

1121 word snippet of a future fic, behind the Read More

=======================================

By the time R’Vindr hoisted her carefully out of the chair, Ketna had the sense of mind to begin grounding herself and return to reality. Ketna nestled herself against R’Vindr's chest, getting what comfort and closeness she could out of being carried by him, knowing it would be the most she would get.

"You’re lucky I like you." He remarked, hefting her a bit in his arms to balance his hold of her before he moved.

Ketna grunted her appreciation for his uncharacteristic attention, against his chest.

“Anyone else I’d give them a hand up and a glass of water, but you, you’re spoiled next to everyone else.” Taken at face value it could seem like chiding, but by his tone Ketna could tell it was good-natured.

Ketna huffed a laugh and muttered a “Thank you.”, ensuring her head was faced outward so he could hear it.

“Consider it compensation for letting me use you as a living masturbation toy for the last few hours. Though I don’t know why you put up with it if you need this much aftercare.” R’Vindr placed Ketna down at the corner of the couch. “You keep saying this is enough, but I know you’re lying.”

He presented Ketna with the folded weighted blanket, not needing any confirmation from her. She took it slowly, taking practiced motions to let it drop so she could wrap it around herself. He was right, she needed a lot more than this, but it was mutually understood that it wasn’t his ‘thing’ or interest to be affectionate. This ritual of shared video browsing and a weighted blanket was the best either of them could negotiate out of this arrangement. R’Vindr took his usual spot next to her on the couch.

"You need a boyfriend." He teased after seating himself.

Ketna groaned before she answered with only just enough annunciation. "Easier said than done."

The television glowed on, R’Vindr controlling everything in the house invisibly as he always did. There was some quiet between the two, as if expecting Ketna to elaborate but she had nothing to add to that.

“… I suppose that would be difficult given your circumstance-” R’Vindr turned his head to Ketna. “Is the whole face covering thing an all-the-time situation or-”

“Yeah, it’s all the time.” Ketna sounded resigned when she answered.

R’Vindr studied Ketna a moment before speaking.

“Is there anyone you don’t wear a mask around?” He asked.

Ketna paused to consider her response. The somber topic pulled some clarity from the afterglow fog, when she finally spoke, it was clearer than the last time.

“Yeah, Munin, I’ve mentioned him before. But he’s just as uninterested in physical affection as you are- and no, we're not fucking. He’s a close friend, but that’s never been a part of our relationship.” She shifted under the blanket, adjusting it. “We do the same thing when I need comfort. Get myself wrapped up in a weighted blanket and he sits next to me and we just talk.”

“That pulls a lot of things into perspective.”

Ketna nodded, acknowledging she heard.

There was a beat of quiet between them, sound from the barely noticed television took up the space until R'Vindr talked over it, again.

“Do you have anyone you can be all… cuddly with?”

“Not really. I have a few partners that are more intimate after sex, but that’s it. But only after the hookup, not anyone to just… be held by for no reason.” Ketna turned her head to face R’Vindr. “I don’t mind this line of discussion, but what’s with all the questions about my personal life, specifically my access to intimacy? Not something I expected from you.”

R’Vindr took a moment’s pause before he spoke. “The longer I’ve spent time with you the more..” He made a gesture with his hand, searching for the word. “Worn out I can tell you are. I like you well enough to hope you’re doing something about it.”

Ketna laughed softly. “Episodes of binge sex, is what I do about it.”

R’Vindr chuckled in kind, then a thoughtful pause before he continued.

“The motivation for my concern, however, is ultimately self-serving.” R’Vindr’s tone shifted to something more stern. “It is risk-assessment. I’m attempting to ensure that the expectation of intimate closeness between us won’t escalate. I like you, but I’m never going to have feelings beyond general fondness. I tolerate this-” R’Vindr gestured between the two of them on the couch “Out of that fondness. And I need to know that you know, this is the absolute limit. That you're not consciously or otherwise, banking on me to be the one to provide you with anything more. I don’t want some debt of intimacy I never asked for."

"Oh believe me, that won't happen." Ketna assured emphatically. "You are the exact definition of a fuck buddy to me and I have no desire to go beyond that." She chuckled as the words formed in her head before she delivered them. "Rest assured I only want you for your body."

"Well thank you." R'Vindr sounded humored but sincere. "Relieved to hear we're on the same page."

Ketna stretched in place, between the time passed and conversation, she felt sober enough to get moving. After pushing the blanket aside she was on her feet. R'Vindr appeared to be staring off while Ketna hoisted her bag from its usual spot to make for the washroom. She thought nothing of it until she heard his voice again.

"You wouldn't mind if I introduced you to someone in a less anonymous way, right?" He called out to her while not leaving his spot.

"You're not planning on setting me up on a blind date, are you?" Ketna sounded almost offended, but amused.

"Of course not, this is a hookup not a date. But this guy is the cuddly type." R'Vindr paused in speech while sending a contact internally. "You've never crossed paths because he doesn't show up for the open invites. He's not keen on orgies or detached sex."

Ketna laughed. "How did you two get involved if he's not into detached sex?" She left the washroom open to continue the conversation.

R'Vindr rose from the couch to follow her so they were no longer raising their voices at one another. "I made his entire sexual sensory system in addition to his sex mods. I hijack it from time to time to get feedback from whoever he's fucking, or just fuck with him." Upon reaching the washroom, he leaned himself against the frame of the door. "Consensually, of course." He added.

Ketna laughed a little louder. "That makes so much more sense." She finished up with her clean off and began to re-dress.

[ladylibido]

R'Vindr is hosting a holiday 'party', and encouraged her to be more explicit about what she wanted toward the rest of the guests cus he ain't gonna help in that regard. Mistletoe belly button piercing jewelry for a subtle not so subtle hint.

This took me way longer than it had any right to (13 hours), but I attempted some new approaches and stumbled a lot along the way.

Followup to the previous image that was supposed to be finished on Halloween but I got very sick (am feeling better, now) Not as rendered out as the other because I wanted to get the point across in the motifs more than anything. It may not be as 'overt' as the other but it is extremely horny to me because of the implications™

She's blindfolded in that mask, and she's turned on and nervous as hell. (probably even actually scared, a little, depending on what all has transpired before)

Where are they going WHO KNOWS! How did Ketna allow this to happen, I DON'T KNOW (yet)! It's just horny!!!! (Xerxes belongs to @vicekillx )

[ladylibido]

I had been thinking about using Red Riding Hood/Wolf motifs ever since I saw a photo of a red outfit with a styled hood over a year ago, and only just now got around to it. I put entirely too much effort into this, I was originally going to do monochrome with a red pop and then it all ended up in color anyway for some reason. Happy Halloween?????????

'Red Riding Hood' is my Ketna, 'Big Bad Wolf' being put in his place is Xerxes, who belongs to @vicekillx

(There may or may not be an inversion of the situation before the end of October.)

My friend doctorgitgud insisted I make some bug dudes so this is the first of what I have fleshed out. New guy, someone for Leyvellete to shack up with from time to time. Old retiree that can still throw down if needed. Blind from an acid attack, has a bad right knee, & no wings.

Been having a rough art time but wanted to get SOMETHING made for the month of June. Decided to make a portrait for one of my characters that didn't have any nice portraits. Sikarien has had very little in the way of finished art, much less art with him clothed, so I thought I'd mess around with dressing him up a bit

[ladylibido]

Honestly wild to me that Robot and Alien are as low as they are (Alien: 6.9% and Robot at 6.6% as of 605 votes)

I voted alien u_u my field of preference is so small...
