Chapter 1 - Teasing

warning: nsfw, masturbation, kid relationship with you being part of the crew as you being the only women, swearing

Kid POV

I hear moans coming from the room, I know I shouldn't but curiosity and lust speak louder. I carefully open the door, leaving it just a little open to being able to complete that view of the heavens.

With one hand she squeezes one of her breasts, and with the other she explores her intimacy, penetrating herself with two fingers that she alternates with a third. It was possible to hear how wet she was, and as if that were not enough when she seemed to feel a wave of adrenaline coming on, she stopped and savored it. 

She focused again on her intimacy, but this time she passed her fingers across her lips, trembling until she reached her clitoris and focused on a rubbing movement. Her white body, with curves that shone with the soft light that entered the room, made her even more desirable.

That scene made my member tremble and grow, becoming uncomfortable. I try to adjust myself, but I accidentally lose my balance and end up opening the door further, only to be discovered.

Get out Kid! -She throws herself on the floor to hide her naked body and tries to hide her embarrassment.

It seems like I arrived at the right time, surely you don't want help finishing it, princess? - In that split second, my eyes absorbed the contrast of the black lingerie that accentuated the curves of that slender body.

I have complete confidence that my friends in the drawer would do a better job. - Still on the floor, she pulls the blanket over the bed and wraps herself in it, showing her tongue to me.

Only now that I've caught her off guard, I notice the confusion on the side of the wardrobe. A contrast to the part compared to the desk and book shelf on the other side of the room, where she had mangas pilled up in a corner. A place where it was rare for anyone from the crew to be amazed as it was in a more hidden section of the ship.

She gets up and comes towards me, staring into my eyes. Her eyes were frustrated and filled with anger.

What the hell do you want Eutass? Or are you going to stand there as if they defeated you?! -Her expression becomes colourless and wrinkles begin to form on her forehead and a mischievous smile forms on the corner of her lips. 

She tries to respond, but her answers always went by without affecting me, leaving a visible disappointment in her eyes.

Heat got into a fight in the forest with some animal and is covered in injuries. Killer has already taken him to the infirmary. - I try to control myself, so as not to grab her and give her an experience of the pleasure that is accumulated inside me.She rolls her eyes and starts pushing me out of the room. - How many times do I have to say that I never took on the role of crew doctor, why does everyone expect me to solve problems? 5 minutes and I'm gone. – And close the door in my face.

It was so funny to see her frustrated, I couldn't contain my satisfaction at getting her out of it, and especially at catching her in an embarrassing situation. Now, I finally had something I could use to my advantage. 

I return to the deck lost in my thoughts. My mind hadn't stopped spinning around her for months, which left me frustrated and I ended up diving even deeper into darkness and meaningless fights to distract myself. Since when did I start looking at her beyond being a companion and a subordinate?

I lie against the pole looking at the sky. She could go unnoticed and avoid being looked at, but the small gestures and changes were catching my attention and desire, especially in the last few weeks.

Eriss POV

scht. damn it! - in a sigh of having lost my peace and anger due to lack of respect, I send the blanket to the bed and start to get dressed. I pick up my glasses from my desk and start pulling my hair into a ponytail as I walk into the infirmary.

"An idiot taking care of another idiot." I hold my hand to my head looking at Killer with bandages on his hand trying to stop Heat's wounds from bleeding.

Helmet head, what do you think you're doing? - I just see him raising his hands in the air, confused and his body shaking.

Blood, everywhere, is... - he doesn't finish the sentence and passes out, falling to the ground.

How was it possible for the reaper to have no mercy on enemies but faint at the sight of his companion's blood?

Heat starts laughing at the table, which causes him to lose even more blood. I punch him and he gives me a puppy look and lets me take care of his wounds.

How many times will I have to scold you to stop challenging animals instead of hunting them? - I scold him with my eyes and tighten one of the bandages under the deepest wound. He lets out a snarl and looks away from me in regret.

I finish the bandages and start to pack everything when I see him get up from the table and almost fall to the floor if I hadn't been quicker and caught him. 

- Did someone tell you to get up on your own? Why doesn't anyone ever listen to me? Sorry, I just didn't want to be more work. I have a perfect understanding of how hardworking we are. - I help him sit on the bed. 

- And Killer? He may well get up on his own, as he woke up again to the smell of alcohol I dropped on him. - he sits down, leans on his knees and looks at me with a confused expression.

I roll my eyes without the patience to respond to the obvious of just doing that to provoke me, and I'm going to finish cleaning up the mess that those two created in the infirmary.

As soon as you feel more energetic, go eat something, don't forget that we have business tonight. - I take off my ponytail, which falls halfway down my shoulders, filling the room with the feeling of the peach fragrance of my perfume.

I go outside to get some fresh air when I see him sleeping against the pole. The breeze made he's spiky red hair move, he's glasses were in his hand, leaving the serene features contrasting with that sly smile. The fur coat had fallen off his shoulders, leaving his upper part completely uncovered. Broad shoulders, defined chest and that line going down to the hips that made me dream when I was alone. Despite his tempestuous personality and short fuse, his boldness only showed on the outside. The insides were...

I feel myself being pulled by something metallic that wraps around my waist and I fall on top of it, directly into his lap.

So tigress, ready for tonight? - he smiles as he runs his fingers through the length of my hair and one of his arms wraps around my waist.

You red lizard, how many times have I told you to pull me just because, and especially to knock on the door?! - I start to hit his shoulders, in an attempt to get up but he only pulls me closer. 

Our faces are close, I smell the cinnamon he emanates and his lips sigh against mine. Instinct electrifies us to kiss, but he soon turns me around and puts me next to him. And that's a good thing because I was seconds away from sighing his name.

Since we met, this interaction has always happened, but lately, it was no longer just a joke, there started to be a certain tension between our bodies, at least mine. Kid always joked or said lewd jokes because he knew how much it upset me due to my delay and out-of-context responses.

It's so funny to see you blush and feel uncomfortable. -he pulls me to rest my head on his shoulder - you are the youngest and most intelligent girl who makes my day. Exactly, I was just his subordinate and companion, why did my mind let itself wander and hope that I could have something more from him.

For you to come with that soft side, you can only say one thing. What do you need to do captain Eutass? - I look him in the eyes, not letting him look away, making him uncomfortable until he lets go of me and moves a few centimeters away.

Kid POV

Eish, can't I already appreciate how important you are to the gang? Or are you still sulking about being caught in the act? - I laugh, but the image of her lying on the bed exploring her body never leaves my head.

Get straight to the point, because like you said, I have other more important things to do since I was interrupted by your bunch of idiots who don't know how to go a day without causing trouble. - She intertwines her arms and starts playing with her hair. 

That quirk was so cute, especially when it touched a weak spot making her feel uncomfortable or when she felt nervous.

Truce, ok?! - I turn around, making her face me – tonight we are going to a cafe that is connected to a deposit of underworld treasures and I need you to do what you are best at.

She opens her mouth and rolls her eyes – meaning being invisible, sneaking in, and stealing while you and the rest of the idiots make trouble?

No - I take her chin with a finger - I want you to let that trapped tigress go out and win hearts.

Eriss POV

WHAT??? No, Kid, please, I don't want to. I feel so uncomfortable! - just the thought of being used as an annoying bait, but every time he brought up the fact that he was a woman, she brought up a sensitive subject. He hugs me.

- I will always be there to protect you, no one takes advantage of my subordinates - a vague attempt to calm me down, although this affectionate side of him was sincere.

I feel his bare torso touching my skin exposed by the crop top I was wearing, that touch melted me, but also left my skin tingling. When he felt my skin crawl, he pulled me even more against him and buried his head in my hair.

Why are you like this Kid? Why do you relax me so much and at the same time put me in a state of alert and full of adrenaline? My body feels heavy and small tears begin to fall down my face as I remember those weeks that led me to join the pack.

No Accounting for Taste

I've never been accused of having "good taste" when it comes to, well, any type of media. However, when it comes anime/manga I find I'm accused of being contrarian or ignoring genuinely "good" titles in favour of "bad" ones fairly often.

While that's not exactly groundless, it doesn't paint the full picture of what I find interesting and why it intrigues me so I thought I'd write about it a little.

I like a lot of popular, agreed upon "good" titles where a masterful artist or team or artists executes a beautiful vision that may not get everything right, but still manages to tick the majority of boxes and leave the audience remembering the experience for years to come (something like Shoujo Kakumei Utena or Cowboy Bebop, for example).

However, these series don't tend to be the ones I obsess about and collect things from and that comes down to the fact that I just love an interesting mess. Something that catches my attention in a unique way despite not having the story weight/talent/etc. to pull it all off.

You know those series with a fantastic concept but terrible execution? Or series with a couple of genuinely fascinating characters and mediocrity across the board otherwise? Yeah, those are what I love.

That doesn't mean I turn my head and ignore these flaws (Akihabara Dennou-gumi for example has a fantastic backdrop of alchemy, but that doesn't excuse the disgusting fanservice or explain piss-poor overall production).

If anything, I find those flaws intriguing in their own right (how does something with so much promise end up failing to stick the landing? Why were these the directions these titles took?) and learning about why they happened can continue to fuel my interest in the titles years after I've first experienced them.

And of course what is "good" and what is "bad" is extremely subjective, not everyone will agree on what the "best" title of all time is no matter how many fans you survey. I think what matters to me at the end of the day is that, for whatever reason, an eclectic assortment of titles have just hit me at the exact right point in my life for me to become engrossed by their eccentricities, flaws, and yes, even their successes.

That's why you'll find me sharing the odd scan from genre-defining titles like Sailor Moon, but when it comes to tearing apart art books and tracking down obscure pieces of stationery, I reserve that kind of dedication for Wedding Peach because it just hit me different 25+ years ago and I still can't shake it (despite the series being what it is).

Anyway, Saturdays are a real brain fog day for me because Friday is when I take my weekly meds so, err, this isn't a particularly articulate examination of my interests or anything. I just got to thinking last night that I find Ryuu-ou Mahoujin more intriguing than GALS! despite the former being a short-lived, break-neck paced mess of a production and the latter being a clearly thought out and popular title from the same author.

I'm also currently re-watching Kamichama Karin and it is such a hot mess of things I can't stand and things that make me genuinely go "what was Koge-Donbo* thinking?" but these flaws compel me to keep pressing play on episode after episode.

I just feel that at the end of the day there's enough room in the world for all of us to enjoy different problematic faves and to highlight successes without pretending failures don't also exist. Every project whether it ends up "good" or "bad" has a team of individuals doing their best on it and I think that's something that resonates with me even if the end product is a total mess.

Sometimes a project veers away from the course it was meant to take and never becomes what it could have been, but those trace elements of brilliance can get noticed by someone who experienced the title at the right time and vibed with the core concepts regardless of the execution.

So creators, take heed, even if the project you work on doesn't end up an iconic series with millions of fans there will always be weirdos like me out there that love the memorable parts of what you did manage to do while also noting the bits you got wrong. Sometimes one person's trash really is someone else's treasure (and yes you'll have to pry Wedding Peach et al. from my cold, dead hands).

What order should I watch/read trigun? Like anime first before maximum? Or does it matter or not? I really do want to get into maximum because I heard nothing but good things about it!

oh! um. Hi? I don't think i'm an expert or anything but i can do my best?

you. You probably don't wanna do what i did, which was: only just get into trigun when stampede came out, watch the first three episodes, think to yourself "damn this is cool. three episode rule really kicked in hard. this is a compliment," watch weekly until episode 6, find out hulu has the original anime dubbed and proceed to watch that in about 3 days, continue watching tristamp for another couple weeks, find the overhaul project of the manga, read a volume or two a night until you've started volume 8, at which point you read the rest of volumes 8-14 in a blur (pausing for a cry at volume 10), at which point the last two episodes of season one of tristamp have yet to come out; your roommate makes you watch badlands rumble with them the same night you watch the season finale, JUST so they can watch you watch wolfwood say the gayest sentence you've ever heard with your own two ears.

follow all of this up with the trigun book club (started by @trigunbookclub) to actually figure out what the fuck you were reading in the first place.

um.

if you want to start with one of the anime, you can either start with tristamp or trigun 98 first - tristamp season one is 12 episodes and its set up as a prequel series. trigun 98 is mostly vibes, but its really fun - in its defense, the only thing out of trigun the manga at the time was the two volumes of trigun and maybe the first volume or two of trimax? tristamp is working with the whole of trimax, and if you read trimax before watching tristamp you'll catch stuff! there's also stuff in trimax that reference the 98 anime! its a very self-referential series. (complimentary)

or you can jump right into trimax! i recommend the translation done by @trigun-manga-overhaul - they've done a really good job of translating it and keeping things consistent. dark horse has the official release, and i can't say anything for or against it atm because i am still working my way through it. i don't have all the volumes and i haven't just gotten the digital version yet. i keep forgetting

it's fairly heavy in tone though - themes such as bodily autonomy come up, assault of various kinds, body horrors, mental illnesses, just a whole host of things. Nightow does a really good job handling them, imo. plus the art is insane! in a genuinely good way! i love how nightow lets us sit with things sometimes!

Nightow also has really lovely pieces of perspective art and there are so many times while reading (and rereading) the manga I've just left the image open if I've got the overhaul translation up or sat my physical dark horse copy (the single volumes are hard to get (prohibitively expensive in the used manga market, even for someone with a 50% discount thanks to work) but dark horse is putting out a deluxe edition starting this fall (oct '23)) down and just. soaked it in. i know I've got posts in my book club tag talking about how nightow's art Works Thematically

(despite the "goofy" part in my title, there aren't a ton of goofs in trimax or tristamp, but the ones that are there genuinely make it hurt more. this is a compliment. it's a little Pratchett-esque in this way.)

(trigun is a fucked up scifi western, and it changed my brain chemistry. this is important for you to know. it will change your brain chemistry. are you prepared for the consequences?)

(i did pose this to some peeps & they suggest 98/trimax/tristamp, just because 98 prepares you for the art style in trimax where tristamp has so many references to trimax. they did concede that i while i might have had the weirdest way of getting into trigun, it might have actually been the most well rounded. jury's out getting peer-reviewed)

Genuinely sorry about the wall of text, and I hope it makes sense! Enjoy Trigun! have fun getting your brain rewired!

Hello.....if you don't mind me asking, who are your favorite romantic relationship's couples in books/ manga/ anime/movies/tv series (can be canon or non-canon)? Why you love them? Sorry if you've answered this question before......Thanks...

ooo this is such a great question anon! thanks for asking, bud, i've never got this before! Since this question was sent to my animanga blog, i'm going to just answer about couples in fandoms i rb on here!

Even though it seems like I go hard for non-canon couples (which believe me I do), there are so many canon couples that I actually love with my entire heart:

hak/yona (akatsuki no yona)

even though i still have to catch up to this manga, this couple has owned my heart since the moment they appeared on page. they are the definition of a true power couple who will go to the ends of the world to save one another. they throw themselves into danger just so the other can have the chance of safety. they've got one another's back through everything and anything. they will yell at one another but hold hands together side by side as they stand staring down their enemies. i just love how hak inspires yona to stand on her own and yona inspires hak to see the value in himself.

sakura/syaoran (cardcaptor sakura)

they're one of my top three childhood couples. they are just adorable and precious and they deserve only good things ever. they are just children who don't deserve to shoulder so much on their shoulders and yet they do it with minimal complaining. they are there for one another, especially through the hardest moments. he's her pillar and she's his heart. also they jumpstarted my pink x green shipping and i will always love them so much.

inuyasha/kagome (inuyasha)

they are also one of my top three childhood couples. they are everything. inuyasha sees the strength in kagome's compassion when she doesn't see it herself and kagome sees the softness in inuyasha's toughness that he doesn't let others see. they are one of the it couples. they fight, push one another to the edge, and bring one another back without another word. inuyasha's unwavering belief in kagome allows her to grow into a fucking warrior of a girl because his strength keeps her going and growing. kagome accepts all of inuyasha, which is huge for him because he's been accepted by neither world because he's never been enough for either world. but there comes kagome, not giving a shit about the worlds beliefs and going with what she believes in and that's him. it's beautiful.

lan wangji/wei wuxian (mo dao zu shi)

i'm going to cheat here because i haven't finished watching the anime but i have read the novel and watched the live-action show. i have been shipping them ever since i watched the show first because anyone who knows me knows that i love the red x blue ship aesthetic. i love how they went from strangers to friends to enemies (but not really) to lovers. it's a classic trope and i will always love it. the fact that lwj recognized wwx when he came back?? that's true love. lwj is there to support wwx when he doesn't want anyone to see him falling and wwx is there to break down lwj's world, to show that there's more to the world than just blindly following rules. the fact that they went from star-crossed lovers to being married is just the best thing ever. they are filled with all the angst AND they get their happy ending.

On to my non-canon couples (they are kept alive in my heart thanks to ao3):

dabihawks (boku no hero academia)

i will say that i have dropped bnha for now (unless two characters die, in which case i'll definitely pick it back up) but that being said, the fact that dabi grew up the child of a hero and turned to villainy while hawks grew up the child of a criminal and turned to heroism? this shit is so poetic. they are parallel lines moving in the opposite direction, ships in the night, opposites attract in such a hellish way. not only is their aesthetic red vs. blue but it's also angel vs. devil - the hero with the wings bathed in the colour of blood vs. the villain with the flames bathed in the colour of the sky. they've got an apollo/icarus vibe that i love so much. there's so much mutual destruction and they had so much potential to be even more insane than they already are.

soukoku (bungou stray dogs)

they are probably my otp of otp's right now, the ones that really kicked the whole red/blue shipping out of control for me. they are idiotic strangers to idiotic frenemies to idiotic enemies to idiotic partners forever. it's so poetic to me that dazai's ability is named no longer human and yet he's the one to bring back chuuya's humanity to him. i just really love that chuuya, who feels so brutally human so much of the time, hosts a god of calamity and can only be brought back to himself by dazai's touch. like point me to a better lvoe story than that? you can't because they are the epitome of catastrophic love. they don't judge one another's actions because they understand one another better than anyone else can. they are each other's weakness and each other's strength. they will destroy one another before anyone else can get the chance.

Silver Talks AniManga (02/04/23)

I was actually also gonna catch up on hiropre, but then I decided to read the jigokuraku manga so I'm putting that on the backburner til I'm done with reading the manga, it's gonna be airing for a year so I'm in no rush tbh

looooooots of stuff this week tho sheesh I got busy (and it could've been more cause there was some more semi recent stuff I wanted to start to but decided to postpone it for a bit) edit: oops forgot about jiangshi x ch11 it's in there now tho after demon bride

Anime

Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero

gohan blanco is real!!!!

this is basically just the stuff I said on discord but touched up

the cg was astounding really, I had big doubts but it really did look great, however it can never beat traditional animation no amount of flashy particle effects can beat actual sakuga the story didn't really do anything, it felt like a filler episode even if it's canon, it felt like an excuse just to introduce new characters and transformations for merch and the games, "But Silver that's every movie!!" and yeah but at least BoG and Broly had lore and stuff gohan beast kicked cell once and did the makankosapo and that was it, VERY lame, I love gohan and piccolo so it was nice for them to get some spolight instead of it always being the goku show BUT I wish beast actually got to fight some like gogeta blue 😔 it was neat seeing RR again and all those old dragon ball moments reanimated as someone who's watched the original too

Jigokuraku Ep1

before starting the ep I was looking for a tl of the manga so I can devour it next, was just gonna read it after the ep but ended up going through all of chap 1 anyway tehe anyway it was good at the start of the ep I thought it was gonna cover more than just chap 1 cause of the pacing but ended up just being all of chap 1 which is fair enough I guess they played it by the books and didn't deviate from the source at all was hoping for a bit of sakuga when he does the jutsu at the end but was basically the same as the manga just with a bit more spice it's got a star studded cast tho I'm looking forward to it, and I will be plowing through the manga like I said there

Manga

Jigokuraku Ch1 - 11

like I said up above I'm gonna be obliterating the manga, it's only 128 chaps so I should be done before the next episode easily, but anyway I hadn't read this before but I did read Kaku's newest manga, Ayashimon, while it ran on jump. I liked it but it unfortunately got axed at 25 chaps. tho just from the 1st chap of jigokuraku I can tell that the gap between them is a massive and it's cancelation is more understandable now. anyway onto jigoku, it's good. simple as that. the art is as good as it was in ayashimon but the story and all the characters are just much more interesting, and I'm only like 1/10th in. don't got much more to say cause of how little I've read so far, but I'll certainly be finished before next saturday really looking forward to Takarie's performance as yuzuriha after seeing how she is in the manga

Stan for Salvation Ch 1-7

angels and demons gain power based on how many people believe in them, so what would happen if a group of demons was one of the most popular idol bands in japan?

that's the premise of the series. michael shows up to defeat some demons and gets obliterated because he has 5 "faith" compared to the demon's 530k, so he decides to become an idol too in order to level the playing field. over the next few chaps more of the archangels join and hijinks ensue. I thought it was just gonna be bishie bait but it's not too bad tbh

Pension Life Vampire Ch1

monsters from vampires to kappa are real and they're in a cold war with the humans.. or they were until peace was achieved our protagonist below had trained her whole life to fight monster and now that there's peace she doesn't know what to do with her life after going back to school and trying to be a normal person she ends up finding a vampire and after stuff™ happens they become friends the art is very cute and it looks like it'll be a nice chill series the author's previous work, Futari Escape, was straight up yuri so I'll be having my goggles really strapped on for this

Dandadan Ch99

really had a whole chap dedicated to this fool huh ARGH I swear to god if okarun doesn't show up at the end of next chap it's gonna be such a wasted opportunity

One Punch Man Ch180

tatsumaki cute, that is all

Kaiju 8 Ch83

extremely pog chap very cool to see kafka back in action after so long

Shuumatsu no Valkyrie Ch75 & 76

chapters for this come out so infrequently that I don't check that often and oops apparently 2 came out in the past weeks and I didn't notice, anyway at the start of this fight I wasn't too sure about it but ended up being really good as usual, the end result was what I expected tho considering the current standings

Ichigoki's Under Control!! Ch17

another very bad chap, at least there should only be 1 or 2 more left

The Ichinose Family's Deadly Sins Ch19 Ginka & Gluna Ch28 Fabricant 100 Ch16

not much to say tbh, just ok chaps

Tokyo Demon Bride Ch29 (Finale)

it's a shame it never really did that well in ranking and ended up getting cut short like this, tho it could've been shorter if there wasn't such a big gap between new serializations this time. but anyway

it was alright, it's strongest point was certainly the art, from chap 1 til the end it was consitently good, with very clean visuals and great designs, however the story wasn't too impressive, it stuck to doing the "monster of the week" thing for a while and when the threat of cancelation became apparent it started to introduce more plot but it wasn't interesting enough and it was too late to save, after which it rushed to the ending trying to hit the big plot moments they prob had planned from the beggining. it's a shame really, I quite liked it, the cast was likeable and as I said the art was good, I will be looking forward to whatever the author's next work may be

Jiangshi X Ch11

I'm calling it now but the dad's gonna get turned into a jiangshi and the mc is gonna end up having to fight him, and surprass him, before fighting the big baddie

Cipher Academy Ch18

cool chap, always nice to see iroha being cool and showing off, also really like the visuals of the cover and the spread

Witch Watch Ch103

totally didn't expect to get more fran on the very next chap, it's very much welcome, she's cute

Spy x Family Ch78

nice little chap about the handler which also doubled as a bond chapter, had been a while

Blue Box Ch95

another very good chap, that ending tho ARGH

Mashle Ch150

we really got the backstory for that lil shit huh? I know it's just to buy time til mash wakes up but still

Sakamoto Days Ch113

so many cool action scenes let's goooo

The Elusive Samurai Ch104

nice chap, mostly a set up for the upcoming big battle, tho I didn't expect this guy to die already

Undead Unluck Ch153

very good chap, it's cool to see fuuko working together with everyone like this

Akane-banashi Ch56

great chap as usual, love to see akane power up, but things won't be so easy as they look, especially with that new guy and now the seiyuu in the picture

Ayakashi Triangle Ch125

interesting development at the end to say the least monka

[yume-x-hanabi]

1 for b²tsm, 4, and 13! And on the last two, I'm actually curious about this over separate media, ie listing a book/manga, then a show, then a video game? Very curious to see what all comes up for both those last two numbers as well. :)

1. Favorite character from B²TSM

Mozart, that little gremlin. Look at him: this is the face of someone who knows he's starting a fandom war and is absolutely proud of himself. He's a menace, I love him.

4. Favorite show/ book/ fandom/ etc?

Show: Gunshi Kanbee. The day it's no longer my favorite drama ever is the day I die (or something exceptional comes out i guess...)

Anime/manga: Natsume Yuujinchou. I love it so much, so many warm feels and endearing characters. When is season 7, it's been so long 😭

Book: I haven't read actual books in so long I'm not really sure what to answer. It used to be that wizard book that shall not be named, but, well, I can't look at it the same now. Can I name Rascal? It's not actual published book but it's original fiction, so it should count, right? Cute kinky couple shenanigans is good for the soul, also I'm a sucker for mystery, ALSO it has one of my favorite female characters of all times, so. I say it counts :p

Video game: Tales of Xillia (do I even need to say it XD). It's consumed my life for 11 years so far, it can do so for 11 more.

13. Any show/ book/ fandom/ etc you’ve been meaning to get into?

Show: I've been considering watching Arcane because Ray Chen apparently has a small cameo in it and I'm a desperate fangirl (yes i know my priorities are all in order)

Anime/manga: idk, I haven't really kept up with what's been and gonna be released these days, so I have no idea. Only ones I'm really looking forward to are remakes/sequels of anime I already love.

Book: probably that new (probably not so new by now lmao) book by Joel Dicker that my brother got me a couple years ago and I haven't read yet because I suck at picking up books. So I should start with that, yeah 😂

Video game: I'm still like five games behind on Pokémon, and haven't finished the Link's Awakening remake. Do I look like I have time for new games? 😅 (jk, I wanna catch up my backlog one day. but still...)

Please anyone feel free to recommend anything for any of these categories, as you can see I suck at getting into new things.

[iapetusneume]

A few Twitter thoughts

It took me awhile to figure out what the Twitter Fallout reminded me of, in some way. I was thinking about when Game of Thrones TV caught up to the books, and the huge reactions I was seeing to the drop in story quality. When Navona and I were talking about it, we were like "ah yes, the classic problem of catching up to the canon." See, we're both seasoned anime/manga nerds. We've seen this happen so many times. But so many people who were watching GoT were not familiar with this phenomenon. Seeing their first time reaction to this, as well as it on such a giant scale, was baffling at first.

Twitter's Fallout is watching a fan community dying, but on a massive scale. Its not just fandom, but there's a lot of fandom there.

I take delight in watching Eli Lily's stock crash because of trolls. I cackle with glee at Chiquita Banana and Nestlé doing damage control over people posting the true things they've done.

The security risks to people aren't great, though. Neither are people losing their jobs.

But my heart mostly goes out to fandom. I am 37, and I've seen this happen before. I remember when LiveJournal fell apart, and we scattered to the winds. Some people came to Tumblr with me. Some went to Twitter, and I quickly realized I couldn't juggle multiple apps. I couldn't do more than one fannish space at once. And, I've lost contact with a lot of people.

Some eventually found me. They sent me an ask because they had a different handle. And that was wonderful and exciting, and they're still here! We've been following each other in one way or another for over 15 years! But we have so many friends that are just... gone.

Fandoms change. I'm not active in that fandom, anymore. But there was still some of that sort of thing on LJ. People would move on, but you still followed each other. I originally followed almost everyone I do on Tumblr because of a fandom I dont really participate in anymore. And I'm so glad to still have my friends still here.

And then there was the whole thing where artists were run off of Tumblr because of the NSFW image policy.

There were a lot of things wrong about Twitter before Elon Musk bought it. But I can respect the fandom need to carve out a place in something existing. So many things aren't a perfect fit. Some sites are just going to be easier to use for some people than others. And, the biggest thing: where are your friends? Of course you'll be where your friends are.

Becoming unmoored is a terrible feeling, when you didn't choose it. I don't envy Twitter users right now. And mostly I'm mad at Elon Musk (and the people who sold Twitter) for allowing a manchild to destroy a company and so many communities with a temper tantrum.

hiii i really really love the way you write and the themes you touch on in your posts id love to hear if theres any books/media that influenced your writing style + the things you focus on in your analyses !

omg hiiii thank you<3 this got annoying so lemme put it under cut lol

This is actually really hard for me to pin down I've been racking my brains over this one. I tend to be a little bit of everywhere, just whatever catches my interest at the time. Most of my personal reading is nonfiction within the realm of philosophy/theology + history + english criticism; whatever fiction I do get around to tends to be horror and/or satire. House of Leaves by MZD actually has just about everything that tickles my fancy. Finally read it beginning of 2021 and I truly haven't been the same since. That's definitely a big one.

But to give you an idea here's the pile of books I'm looking at on my desk as I type this is: an anthology of John Wesley's sermons (founder of Methodism), House of Leaves, an anthology of Percy Shelley's poetry + prose, "The Sphinx in the City" essays on urban living + feminism, the communist manifesto, a dissertation on the influence of Hermann Hesse in Japan, "Thank God for the Atom Bomb" essays by a "conservative cultural critic", and how could i forget the 70pgs of the unabomber's manifesto i printed out.

Currently been slowly making my way through "Romanticism and Consciousness" which are essays on the historical/political background influencing Romantic literature. More often than not I tend to look for essays and critical readings of works before I actually do read said work proper. I don't recommend this btw I just never listen to my own advice. But like, this book inspired me to buy the Shelley anthology. And some of the essays in the Shelley anthology analyzing him I actually found online weeks prior and added them to my digital library. I'd rather read them physically, as I tend to highlight my books. I find highlighting + margin notes really help me stay focused otherwise simply Sitting And Reading makes me go a lil nutz unless the book really is that good. I backed an artist's first comic book that had me ensnared recently. Independent comics tend to do a number on me. Yes I'm still a huge homestuck fan. Will be going 8 years strong.

I reread Brave New World late 2020 after, somehow, getting my hands on it in middle school. Comparing the way the protagonist kills himself at the end vs trying to read Huxley's theological pieces, he should've stuck to the racist satire. I'm still gonna try to finish the Perennial Philosophy, though. All this rambling has me realizing the childhood series I grew up on was A Series of Unfortunate Events, so I think I'm starting to notice a trend.

But actually the biggest media type I consume is games I fucking love video games. I think I cried playing Disco Elysium. I wish more games understood its medium as well as DE. I think that's really what you have to find is stuff that understands its medium. Ososan is a show that is really fucking good at being a tv show, and I think it helps because it doesn't necessarily draw from anything prior because it's such a different beast from osokun (the ososan manga actually came out like a few months after it aired I learned recently).

I don't watch many movies or shows, and the ones I do make me really wanna read the original source material just so I could compare (A Clockwork Orange, American Psycho). I just last watched the Belladonna of Sadness and I think that's an animated movie that understands it's an animated movie. Why go for realism when you've got watercolors?

My other main criteria for any piece of work is that it makes me want to pick up smoking. I don't think I could explain this further if you asked.

Aside from. Any of whatever I just said. My writing background is largely academic with some journalistic experience. It makes media analysis really easy. It also helps that there's technically no wrong answer when it comes to critical readings, just like any school essay you just have to be able to back up your claims with evidence and articulate the connections you see. Prose is a new beast that I am attempting to tame but I think 1. You need to have fun with the learning process and I do in fact enjoy learning. This includes a willingness to examine and reexamine your own words even after you're done working on a piece and analyzing what you can/need to improve on. 2. I really enjoy being able to construct a sentence in a million different ways and I will always have a tab open for the Merriam-Webster dictionary-thesaurus while writing ANYTHING. 3. Did I mention having fun? I really have fun writing I love writing as a hobbyist. 4. Consume and question everything in equal measure. This will eventually produce something.

Yeah, it's been a long time! I've been doing alright, though! I'm kinda mostly waiting for my last school year to be over and find a job so I can earn money and slowly fix my life the way I want.^^"

The fandom is Blue Period! It's actually my next big focus after Mystic Messenger actually, I even found a character I consider my f/o from there! I got a special box with a sketchbook that is full of drawings and illustrations with really good quality! Since the fandom is not even active, there is stuff in this book that you won't find anywhere else, makes me feel good SMSMSM and one of the best parts is that it's in Japanese! So whenever I have progressed way more, I'll come back and read all the new juicy info and new scenarios I've never seen before, exciting!!!!

I also got some bookmarks and two keychains from there! Although I wasn't kinda happy with the shipping process, I'm still very happy I got them!!

Blue Period has also helped me a lot with my path with art, it has given me plenty of motivation and the main character has opened my eyes to so much about art, too! I felt so seen when he had the same thoughts and experiences as me, even if he does oil painting^^"

You can watch the anime or read the manga if it interests you! If you start with the anime, please check the manga out since there is so much more! If you do anything with art, it might give you motivation just like it did to me.

Learning the language can be fun but it is challenging, haha. They are many words that have different pronunciations and stuff I haven't seen in a language before. I found that listening to people speak makes me remember the words easier haha

I hope you are able to rest well, you're doing great, I reassure you! I'm also so happy I got to speak with you again, it really has been a lot of time, holyyyy!

I'm thinking of starting to use Tumblr when I get more Into art again but I'm still here, I still check some stuff every day when I can! <333

I understand that sentiment. So much changes once you're done with school. I'm rooting for this year to be an easy one for you!

Ooh, I've never heard of Blue Period before, but I looked up the premise and it sounds interesting! I will keep it in mind when I'm in the market for a new anime/manga!

It's so wonderful to be able to pull motivation from the media you enjoy, especially when it's a hobby like art or writing where it sometimes feels like you can hit a wall. Funnily enough, even though it has nothing to do with writing, Mysme is what pushed me to write more often and put more effort into it. It's thanks to these guys that I've been able to develop my skills as far as I have.

That merch sounds so nice! That sketchbook especially sounds really detailed and extra bonus that it's something you won't find elsewhere. It'll be fun to see what else it holds once you progress further in Japanese! Shame about the shipping issues with other merch pieces, but at least they made it to you!

I've had similar experiences learning languages. What I love is that each language says so much about the country's culture. I'm currently attempting to learn Italian, and while it has its difficult and awkward moments (I've messed up in front of locals more times than I can count), I love learning about the expressions and their meanings.

Thank you for your support, it means a lot! I'm taking time to catch my breath and to do the things I enjoy before life gets busy again.

[noramoons]

yeeeees i'll send you recs once i read through them. as of now, i've just been bookmarking them T_T school needs to end so i can catch up dhjsakdhjaks

i was always worried with time travel!aus because it either confuses me too much or it is dragged and the character forgets about their real life fhjaskdjkas but the way tokyo rev did it, im like WOAH! I AM ALL IN. i'll be honest, i didnt read the manga hdjsakhdjak i got lazy and just looked up the characters HAHAHA and went through their profiles and wikipedia everything asdfghjkl i am just watching the anime T_T I WANTED THE DRAKEN SWEATER and then i saw a jacket for the valhalla group and UGH wanted it so much dhjaskdhjak but it was SO expensive T_T

i havent watched bungo stray dogs YET. i've been putting everything on hold until the summer too. im like I'M RELAXING THIS SUMMER TO CATCH UP ON MY WEEB LIFE lol

no i feel this 😫😫 i am SO busy these days it’s crazy i keep saving things in my drafts to read in hopes that i’ll magically find some time to read them LMAO we will hopefully get a break soon 🙌

i do agree there are some shows that do time travel and make it extremely confusing for no reason 😭😭 there was another time travel show tokrev kept getting compared to when it came out? erased i think? i haven’t seen it so i wouldn’t know BUT i rlly like how they go back and forth and i think everything is explained well enough to keep your interest! i probably should finish the manga tbh i heard it gets INSANE later on with the different timelines 😧 kinda scared tbh just need all my favorite little guys to make it out alive thank you!

BUT THIS IS REAL TOO why is anime merch always either 1) so bad or 2) so expensive 😫 i ended up making a couple printed shirt designs a few years ago for fma and inuyasha bc i couldn’t find any merch i liked which was a fun little crafty project tbh! but it would be nice if some of the official cute merch wasn’t always crazy expensive smh

omg bungou stray dogs is literally one of my favorite anime ever 😫😫 the manga is SO GOOD too even if it uses a bunch of literary references you don’t have to have read the books they’re referring to to understand the characters! but it does make for a pretty funny situation for me (american) when you get to season two and like. edgar allan poe and f scott fitzgerald are the main antagonists LOL but there’s literally so many good things coming out soon !! my hot girl summer fr (staying inside and watching bsd 😚)

What’s the best thing about the show/series/books/comics/etc.?

answered here, but there are so many 'bests' for me that i'm gonna take the opportunity to answer this again: i thoroughly enjoy the pacing of trigun stampede.

it's been @ a breakneck pace, leaving my friends to often remark about how an episode feels more like 10 than 24 minutes. i prefer my stories to be "lean" (unrelated shoutout to the BRS anime, which is only 8 episodes of its neatly-paced story). there's prolly something to do with how we all are what we eat, and that i consider myself as someone who wants to be purposeful with everything that i do (& thus, seek out stories that make every line of dialogue count for example), and so far?

stampede is running (🃏) right along those lines, without compromising on having complexities in its story. having rewatched the current available episodes multiple times & being in constant discussion w/friends with their unique insight has helped me catch onto the more subtle things going on.

...not to go off on More of a tangent. anyhow i think it's pretty damn exciting, especially in tandem with things like how the exact total episode count is being kept under wraps. to me, i've interpreted this rush as evidence the team's itching to get to more of the story that would be surprising and entertaining to new and old fans alike.

i'm not going all-in for orange to stick the landing, buuut that's not to say that i Dont have a lot of faith given what's been put out so far. i'm impressed.

What’s the best thing about the fandom?

haven't sincerely engaged with any 'fandom' shit for anything since like. 2017. (tbh: i use hashtags for categorizing fanart, & not to find friends/ppl to follow depending on the media we're fans of). have been subscribed to the idea that 'fandom' should really just be you and the 5 people you got into the thing by being really enthusiastic about it

with that being said!! saturdays are such a highlight of my week given the watchparties i host with my friends for stampede. just getting to experience it together is something i really treasure; we end up talking for a while after every episode, and the discussion is always invigorating, setting all of our imaginations alight. plus i get to flex a little manga knowledge...! OK i know it's a cornball cop-out answer to say "fwiendship", but honestly. it's great that we have such a fascinating show to watch together & deepen our connections w/each other for it.

What’s the worst thing about the fandom?

[see above answer for context on what i consider 'fandom', personally]. i don't have my finger on the pulse of the trigun fandom at large, but besides the morally reprehensible shit that's prevalent in every fandom? here n'there i've caught glimpses of sentiments that make me wish people could be more patient with stampede...! 😵

Happy Birthday, Kakashi Hatake 💋 9.15.21 💋 Husband!Father!Retired!Kakashi Hatake x f!reader 💋 NSFW

( Sauce )

MINORS 👏🏼 DO 👏🏼 NOT 👏🏼 INTERACT 👏🏼

A/N: The idea for this tasty little present for Kakashi was given to me by @the-tiniest-one - downright genius if you ask me. 💡

There is so much confusion about Kakashi's current age. I've read and watched so many timelines of the Naruto and Boruto series over the past few years, and it seems no one really knows for sure. I suppose it depends on whether you go by the manga or the anime, but most sources say 46-48 (meaning he's turning 47-49 today). So instead of giving myself a lobotomy trying to figure it out, I'm going with the idea that he turns 45 today because reasons. 💅🏼

Warnings: spanking (and resulting marks), face riding, squirting, old people sex if you consider 40s to be old (and if you do, you're wrong!😉)

Word Count: 3.9k

It was early evening on Wednesday when you got home. After kicking off your shoes by the door and leaving your purse on the dining room table, you walked into your bedroom to find your shirtless husband propped up in bed reading one of his favorite erotica novels. It was his birthday and, boring as it may sound to most, this was his idea of a good time. Although he looked younger than his 45 years, he partied like a senior just this side of yelling at kids to get off his lawn. But his well-trained body would give guys half his age a run for their money.

It was a school night, but Naruto and Hinata had insisted that your son and daughter come stay with their family for the night so that you and Kakashi could have some alone time together. So, the two of you had the house and each other all to yourselves. This was all Kakashi wanted for his birthday - no kids, no plans - just you, his book, and a quiet evening at home.

"Hey, handsome". You flattened his wild silver hair with your hand, pecking him on the forehead. He lowered his book and raised his head to kiss you on the lips.

"Well, hello there, pretty lady", he said, winking at you.

You shook your head and tried to stifle a smile. His cheesy attempts at flirting with you had always been so bad that you fell in love with the dork and married him. You walked into the adjoining bathroom, talking to him as you freshened up and changed clothes. "How's your day been?"

He stretched loudly. "Pretty good, can't complain. Pawned the kids off to the Uzumakis, and not a moment too soon. They were bickering about something stupid when they got home from school". He sighed. "But I talked to Naruto earlier and he said they'd made themselves comfortable and were getting along fine".

"Well, it is like a second home to them by now-"

"Wish it was their first home..."

"Kakashi!" You'd walked back into the bedroom, laughing and throwing the shirt he'd left on the bathroom floor at him in mock reprisal. "They're our babies!"

"Which is the only reason I let them live here". He watched you saunter to the bed, obviously braless in a loose-fitting tank top, with a small pair of booty shorts that showcased your vicious thighs and the crease beneath your butt cheeks. You caught him staring, sending the first pang deep into your belly, knowing he would soon catch your scent and what it would do to him.

"So..." You prowled your way across the bed and he raised an eyebrow at you. "...what do you want to do tonight...senpai?" You knew good and well what those shorts were doing to him. And your nipples jutting out beneath the thin material of that tank top did nothing to stop his loins from stirring.

Feigning disinterest, he picked his book back up and yawned. "Meh. Read, I guess".

You lowered his hand back down and straddled him, your thighs touching the warm skin of his bare sides, his half-hard cock pressing against your bottom confirming that he was indeed full of shit. You took your time stretching and arching your back like a kitty cat before leaning forward, placing your hands against his chest and your lips along his chiseled jawline.

He shifted beneath you as you kissed your way to his ear and breathed, "I heard it's somebody's birthday today". He smirked and turned his head to capture your lips with his, placing his hand behind your head when he slipped his wet muscle inside your mouth. He placed his free hand on your thigh and squeezed as he rolled his hips to grind his cock against you, drawing a sigh from your mouth into his. Your need leaked out of you as you ground back against him, his hand smacking your ass hard, giving you a brilliant idea. You pulled away from him and hopped off the side of the bed, his arms still open with a massive tent in his pants and a comical pout on his face.

"Get up and drop trou, birthday boy. You're getting 45 licks tonight".

His arms fell to his sides and he reached for his book again. "Yeah, no".

"Oh come on, Kashi, it'll be fun!"

"Not for me, it won't. Besides, when have you ever known me to bend my bare ass over for you or anyone else? Not happening".

He rolled his eyes when you jutted your bottom lip out at him, pouting harder than he could ever hope to.

He let out an exasperated sigh. "Fine, I'll do it!" He stood up and hooked his thumbs under his waistband. "What're you gonna spank me with? Your bare hand?"

"Nope". With one hand on your hip, you plucked the hard back* copy of Icha Icha from his fingers, smirking.

"Ah, jeez", he lamented. "Just don't break it".

You laughed. "Babe, stop being so dramatic! I'm not gonna break your ass".

"Not my ass, the book!" He pulled his pajama pants down to just below his pale ass cheeks. One of the best things about being retired, he always said, is not having to wear underwear anymore. It's so liberating.

"You and your books! Maybe you should get a room with them-"

"That's what I've been trying to do since you slunk in here wearing that dangerous little outfit of yours! But noooooo! Somebody wants to spank me with it instead!"

"You do realize that you're gonna get it that much worse now, right?"

He winked at you and said, "Do your worst, cockblock" before turning around and bending over with his hands on the bed. What you couldn't see was the smugness that fell over his expression once his back was turned. He'd humor you a little at least, just enough to give you a false sense of security. He was nothing if not sneaky, but that was a hazard inherent in being married to the Hokage-level ninja.

You hummed victoriously as you brought the book up with both hands. "Hold on tight, birthday boy". His butt cheeks clenched as you swung downward. "One!"

The first lick was quite pathetic, actually. You'd overestimated your strength. He relaxed again, shaking his head and sighing impatiently. "You hit like a girl-"

You put considerably more force behind the next swing, the book creating a sharp whack when it made contact with his sensitive skin. "Two!"

His hips jerked forward with the sting. "Ah! Easy!"

"Nuh-uh. You're getting everything you deserve, baby!" You applied the same velocity to the next swing.

"What did I do to deserve- hahh shit!" Again, his hips jerked forward on impact, surprising himself when his dick twitched.

"Three!"

"I take it back, you don't hit like a- fuck!"

"Four!"

A discernable pink rectangular pattern had begun to form on his lily white ass cheek. You smiled devilishly, so proud of your handiwork. "Damn, baby, I thought you were tougher than this. You've still got 41 more licks to go. Five!"

His fingers gripped the sheets as he looked back at you. "Forty one?"

You were on the sixth downswing when his deft hand caught your wrist mid-swing. In one fluid movement, you found yourself bent over Kakashi's knee as he sat on the edge of the bed. He yanked your shorts down and you heard the loud "crack" before your body even registered the stinging pain against your bare ass.

"Kakashiiii! What the fuck?" You tried to lift yourself off of him, but that was a no go since his non-spanking hand was firmly pressed against your back.

"You said four to five, right?"

"No, I said forty five ahhhh!" His hand had come down hard again. He was much better at spanking than you. He'd had plenty of practice in the many years that you've been together, that's for sure.

You could hear the smirk in his voice. "Oh. Well, it looks like you're getting the rest of 'em".

"But kashiiiii! It's not my birthdahhaaaoooowwwww!" You tried using your legs as leverage to break free, but your elite shinobi of a husband had your belly pinned to his thighs.

He chuckled. "I know, but…" You brought your hand around to shield your ass, but he promptly bound your wrist to your back before delivering another slap of his bare hand to your butt. "...it's my birthday, and I'm getting what I want". His commanding voice had deepened.

You continued crying out with every spank, tears pricking at the corners of your eyes, of whether it was from the pain or the laughter you couldn't be sure. Your cries turned to whimpers, then to moans as your pussy got wetter with each impact of his hand, your swollen pussy lips sticking out from behind your closed thighs, glistening with your need.

On the next swat, his bare hand made contact with your pussy lips instead of your ass and you screamed, "Nngaaahhh fuck, Kashi! Owwwaaaaahhhhh!"

He rubbed his hand in slow, firm circles on your cheeks, applying negative pressure to help ease the pain, wandering lower to tease your weeping slit with his middle finger. Still bent over his knee, you whined as he circled the pad of his finger around your clit.

"Kashi..."

He dipped his finger into your wet hole, sliding it in and out nice and slow, turning his hand palm down so that he could get a good angle on that g-spot of yours. You pushed back against his hand, needing more of him.

"I lost count, but I think I've made my point". He let you go and you sank to your knees in front of him. Looking down at you, he pushed his pants all the way off as his angry cock slapped against his hard abs. "How about you give my dick 45 licks instead?"

You'd spent the whole day looking forward to sucking Kakashi's cock down and making him cum in your mouth.

"But senpai..." You looked him right in the eyes. "...Wanna suck it".

He put his finger under your chin to stop you, shaking his head at you. "Lick it", he ordered in his silky smooth voice. "I'll count for you since your mouth is gonna be occupied".

By now you were so turned on your mouth watered at the very sight of your husband's pretty dick. You wrapped your fingers around the base before looking up at him with your bottom lip between your teeth, knowing full well what it did to him when you bit your lip like that.

His eyebrows knitted as his slate grey eyes darkened, leaning back on his hands, watching you, anticipating. You stuck your tongue out and, starting at the base, dragged it up his entire length, flicking your tongue over the tip at the end. You hummed in appreciation of his delicious pre.

"One". His voice had always gotten darker when he was aroused.

Again, you began at the base, licking slowly up, savoring the texture of the underside of his thick shaft as your tongue submitted to its shape.

"Two". He brushed a stray strand of your hair away from your pretty face, holding it back to have a clear view.

When the count had reached the upper twenties, it was becoming increasingly difficult for him to keep count, as well as to keep your hot mouth from having its way with him. But a man is only as good as his word. His head fell back as he groaned. "Twenty eight".

Jesus, still almost twenty more to go. Your jaw had begun to ache a little. But it was rewarding to watch his pre ooze down his length only to catch it with your tongue, moaning in approval of his flavor. You had a tiny puddle of your own forming on the floor beneath you as well.

On the 40th count, he looked down again to watch you.

His hips bucked on 41.

On 42, he bit his lip to stifle a whimper, his cock throbbing painfully.

You knew your husband's needs all too well, so after the 45th count, you devoured him knowing it wouldn't take you long to finish him off. He groaned in unadulterated pleasure, slowly losing his mind as you hollowed your cheeks, sucking him down until the head of his cock hit the back of your throat.

"Mmm sweetheart, you suck my dick so good, fuuuuck", he breathed. You hummed around him causing that familiar dull ache to begin creeping up from the base of his spine. "Shit, gonna cum...mm!"

You closed your eyes and slowed your pace while increasing the intensity as his hips trembled. The first splash of his hot cum hit the back of your throat, his cock flexing against your tongue with every eruption of his thick seed until he was spent. You popped off him, swallowing the last of him down as his back hit the mattress, chest heaving.

You crawled up next to him, dragging your fingertips along his arm and chest. He turned his head and looked at you with those seductive hooded eyes. As he kissed you, he pulled you on top of him before hooking his hands behind your knees, encouraging you to straddle his abdomen.

He traced the outline of your sexy figure with his well-trained hands, taking in every curve and dip of your feminine form, nice and slow. Studying you. Learning you. Even after all these years.

He stroked your thighs firmly, pressing his fingertips into your flesh a little bit. His hands continued up on the next stroke, spreading your outer lips open and brushing over your clit with the pad of his thumb. You closed your eyes and let your head fall back as he spread your slick need over your hard bud. His free hand cupped your breast under your shirt, gently squeezing it as your fingertips dug into the muscle of his chest. "Mmm...Kashi".

He situated his hand below such that he was able to slip two skilled fingers within you while still using his thumb to manipulate your clit. "Feel good, baby?"

"Mhmmm, god yessss", you keened while removing your shirt.

"Look at me", he said.

You raised your head up and opened your lust-filled eyes for him.

He began curling his fingers inside of you as if to say come hither. "You remember this hand signal, right?"

Indeed you did and your pussy clenched at the promise of what was to come.

"Well, come on then, sexy girl".

You shifted your body higher and higher, still straddling your husband's prone body as you climbed atop his shoulders. He wrapped his strong arms around your thighs, his biceps flexing against them as he held you tight. The moment you felt his hot breath on your cunt, your eyes rolled back. Your full body shiver was swiftly followed by the reflex to arch your back when he stuck his tongue out and licked a long line between your lips, watching your face twist in pleasure. Pleasure he loved giving you.

He set a slow rhythm, alternating between licking and sucking on your clit, throwing in a hum here and there for good measure. You carded your fingers into his hair, squeezing two fistfuls of his downy locks, but he knew you were holding back. He pulled back on your thighs long enough to speak, "Ride me, sweetheart. I want you to. You know I can take it".

He was right. He had so many times before, but there was that self-conscious part of you that always made you hesitate and Kakashi would have to fight that self-defeating voice within you every time. You began slowly rocking your hips, trying to keep most of your weight off of him. He knew this wouldn't do. As long as any part of you was holding back, you wouldn't be able to orgasm and he lived for you to come undone for him. "(Y/n), you're still holding back. Hey, eyes on me".

"Kashi, what if I hurt you?"

He chuckled. "Think you I couldn't have your body pinned to this bed before your next breath if I so chose?" He had a point. "We go through this every time, (y/n). I want you to ride my mouth with abandon. I want you cumming all over my fucking face. Drown me in your scent, baby. Please".

His words and the roughness of his voice finally won you over. Once again, he remained undefeated in his powers of persuasion.

You watched as he sucked your clit in between his lips again, winking at you when you moaned. You smiled and nodded. Within seconds, you'd resumed your prior pace and were now well on your way. You slowly increased your speed, once again losing yourself in the pleasure of your husband's oral skills. You whimpered when his teeth grazed your clit, your hips thrusting forward. He gave you an encouraging moan and spread his fingers across your ass cheeks, guiding your hips faster along.

He was making you lose control. That burning coil drew tighter and tighter deep within your belly as you ground your pussy against your husband's face, his tongue sliding in and out of you and his nose rubbing your clit.

"Nnhhnnn Ka-kashi". You changed your angle, his tongue and lips finding purchase around your clit again as his chin fluttered against your opening. Your fingers clutched his silver hair, pushing and pulling yourself along. Kakashi growled into you and your legs began to tremble, crying out his name.

His fingertips dug into your flesh as he urged you along, moaning against you almost nonstop. You felt the heat from your core pull back, as a star implodes on itself before going supernova. The recoil of your violent release rattled your bones as you came hard on your husband's face. You collapsed forward onto your hands and knees. (That shit felt so real I legit just wiped my face with my hand.)

"Shit, sweetheart, you've got me so drunk on you. Damn, I wanna fuck you so hard right now". He had come up behind you on his knees, his cock hard and aching to finally be inside you.

"Then fuck me, Kakashi. Take what you need from me..."

He slapped the inside of your thigh with his cock a couple of times like you like him to. He was hit with the aftershocks of your orgasm all around him as he sank himself deep inside you. "Mm- it just goes right in, doesn't it? So ready for me, yeah?"

"Yeah baby, nnnfuck! You feel so good - your cock feels so fucking good".

He grabbed your waist before slamming himself into you again. You cried out at the sharp feeling of that coil winding up again. Kakashi had always been the King of Multiple Orgasms. How the fuck he did it remained a mystery to you even after all these years, but one thing you knew without a doubt is that no other man - not a single fucking one before him - had ever held mastery over your body like your husband could. You pushed back against him, meeting every single one of his thrusts.

"Oh damn, sweetheart, yeah. Fuck me back. Fuck me right back. Slam those thighs against me, baby". He slapped your ass, making you cry out in pain. What was another hand mark across your stinging butt cheeks when there were already so many?

Your entire area was coated with your slick and his saliva. It was so lewd the way your pussy squelched with every plunge of Kakashi's cock, the wet claps of two raw fucking bodies echoing off your bedroom walls. And Kakashi was starting to lose it.

You lowered your top half down to the bed, angling your bottom up even higher for your man as he took you harder, his balls slapping your clit.

A few more thrusts like that and the swell in your womb burst again, cumming hard for Kakashi, screaming his name as your cum sprayed everywhere. Kakashi fucking loved making you squirt. In typical form, as soon as your warm liquid splashed against him he came apart.

"Fuck, baby! Damn, I love it when you soak me like that! Ahh god, I'm gonna fucking cum!" A loud grunt escaped him and his hips stopped hard against you as his cock spasmed with every burst of his seed.

He chuckled between heavy breaths when he pulled out of you. "That's one hell of a creampie, babe. Damn", he said, one eyebrow raised at the amount of his cum spilling out of you.

"Another Legendary Hatake Load, huh?"

"Yep!" He collapsed onto the dry side of the bed, pulling you with him as he went. Your limp body fell onto his, completely used and fucked out. You curled up on top of him as he cradled you in his arms, kissing the top of your head.

“You’re the best gift a man could ask for. You know you're the most beautiful thing in the world to me, right?"

You hummed.

"There are only two other gifts in this world that are as precious to me as you are". He pressed his cheek to your forehead.

"Mhmm".

Another thing that was legendary was Kakashi's aftercare. "Yeah? And you gave me both of them too".

You smiled, holding him tighter as a vulnerable tear fell onto his chest.

"Our beautiful baby girl-", he said, stroking your hair.

"And our ridiculously handsome baby boy-"

"Fuck me, he's a teenager now".

You hummed. "It won't be long until she is too, and as pretty as she is? I have a feeling she'll find you waiting on the porch with a kunai in your lap when she comes home from dates".

"Nope, won't happen. She's not allowed to date. Ever".

"Kakashi". You slapped his chest playfully.

He turned to look at the other side of the bed. "Jesus, look at the mess you made".

You gasped incredulously. "Me?"

He laughed. "That came out of you, not me!"

"It's your fault, though! You made me do it! And some of it did come out of you!"

He groaned. "Be that as it may, someone has to clean it up".

"Rock, paper, scissors?"

"Best two out of three".

...2 Minutes Later...

Kakashi stripped the bed and put everything in the wash, proud of his preparedness by keeping a waterproof mattress cover under the sheets specifically for the rare occasions when you squirt. He re-made the bed with clean linens and both of you climbed in naked. He propped himself up on a couple of pillows and motioned for you to come sit between his legs. You leaned back, squirming around carefully - ever mindful of the Hatake family jewels - until you'd made yourself comfortable against your husband's warm chest. He held you close with one arm as he reached for his beloved book one last time for the night.

You tilted your head back to look up at him. "Happy Birthday, Kakashi Hatake. I love you endlessly".

"Thank you, (F/n) Hatake. I love you for my life".

You pulled him down into a slow, sensual kiss and whispered, "You wanna go another round, old man?"

He let his head fall back against the headboard, too worn out to even think about it. "'M sorry, sweetheart, I can't. I need a full night's sleep before I could make love again". He groaned, eyes still closed. "I'm too old and I'm too tired".

You giggled as you settled back against his chest, closing your eyes. "You're still a really good lay, though".

He huffed in amusement as he picked up his book. "Good night, babe. Thank you for everything".

You yawned and stroked his arm. "It's my pleasure..." You trailed off, already well on your way to sleep.

Let’s get to know our animanga fandom mutuals/followers better? 💕

01. how did you find out about anime? Since childhood? Tmi time hey! My first anime were when I was about 5-6, Sailor Moon (it was on tv every afternoon, super badly dubbed but I lived for it) and Attack No. 1 (this one was on every Sunday morning and my dad used to watch it with me); I watched Inuyasha and Tokyo Mew Mew in highschool a lot, and then I started reading the manga my friends back then used to. I got back into it more when I was 19 due to a friend recommending me Ouran Highschool Host Club. And Death Note was ridiculously popular at uni lmao quite questionable how so many law students loved Light but hey ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ c'est la vie

02. what’s your favorite anime? Hmm hard to say. I'll focus first on anime only and not anime based on manga, because that's an entire different thing. So... Free! I would say Free! is honestly my absolute favourite because it hit home with some stuff when it first aired. I related with Haruka a lot. Additionally, it's anime only so it suits this category best! I also enjoyed the visuals and animation of K Project a lot; they were surreal. And if I'm going for anime based on manga (I generally prefer the manga honestly) I would say Natsume Yuujinchou, Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun and Fma:b have some of the best anime adaptations. Kny anime is doing well so far too!! For anime based on games, Utapri and Amnesia were great.

03. do you have a favorite j-music/k-pop group/singer?  Miyavi, Taeyeon, SNSD, BiSH, The Oral Cigarettes, EXO, Shinhwa, Orange Caramel

04. when is your bday? and how old are you? 9 october // 31 years old (the pandemic birthdays shouldn't count, so I should be 29 forever still)

05. currently, what is your favorite fandom anime? World Trigger, Kny and Jjk

06. despite the ups and downs on tumblr, what motivates you to stay here today and do your best? Out of sheer spite. Lololol. Honestly even if I go on hiatus sometimes, I can't see myself ever leaving this website for good. I met some of my best and closest friends here, and I'm still connecting with new friends about new interests, so it's a nice little happy corner. My grandchildren will inherit my canon urls, I kid you not. Truthfully, no other social media can ever compare.

07. finally create yourself in this picrew: link

Tagging (for either/or and only if you want, no pressure!!) 💕 @misakarose 💕 @spike-spiegels 💕 @ozvasselius 💕 @reigenphobe 💕 @childeapologist 💕 @kurozero 💕@keikuns 💕

Hi, everyone.

I have something extremely important to talk about that is NOT fandom related. I really do hope this can reach everyone on here, especially since it's still Autism Acceptance Month.

A few quick questions for anyone who happens to see this before I dive right into this: Have you ever heard of Dhar Mann? If so, have you ever seen his videos? What do you think about them?

If you don't know who Dhar Mann is, he's a content creator whose main platforms are Instagram and YouTube. He makes these videos about various scenarios from a couple on the brink of divorce, to kids bullying one of their peers, even about Autism Spectrum Disorder. All of his videos have some kind of message at the end that really drives the point home. One of his most recent videos is about ASD, which is what I'm going to discuss today.

Personally, I think some of his videos are interesting, despite the concepts being reused and recycled over and over; however, how I feel about the video he made about ASD is the complete opposite. I'll summarize the video he made so you don't have to watch it. (If you really want to watch it to see exactly what I'm talking about, I'm not gonna stop you. Do what you need to do in order to form your own opinion.)

The video Dhar Mann made about ASD is about this boy who excludes his autistic brother from participating in activities with his friends at school. The boy bullies his autistic brother and does pretty much everything to make his brother's life Hell, even going as far as to pretend that he doesn't know his own brother. The boy "instantly regrets his decision" when their mom is called into the school to discipline her son for bullying his autistic brother. What his mother says is what REALLY upsets me. The message of this video in particular is this, WORD FOR FUCKING WORD. I wish I was kidding. But here's the message below:

How the video concludes is the boy reluctantly includes his autistic brother in every single activity, the boy sees his brother's potential, and they live happily ever after. Whoop-dee-fucking-doo.

As an autistic woman who works with disabled people for a living, that message Dhar Mann put in this video specifically is not only extremely ableist, but is also spreading misinformation about ASD.

News flash to all the people who still spread misinformation about ASD: Not every single autistic person is a little white boy in elementary school, nor is every single autistic person a young white man who's a Super Genius™️. (I could go on all day long about how the media stereotypes autistic characters and autistic people in general, but that's a whole other topic.) No autistic person is the same, meaning we all fall on the spectrum in different places and all that jazz. There's no "look" to autistic people either because no autistic person looks the same.

Autistic women exist.

Autistic girls exist.

Autistic nonbinary people exist.

Autistic BIPOC and AAPI exist.

Autistic people who are completely nonverbal exist.

Autistic people who are completely verbal exist.

Autistic people who are in the middle of being nonverbal and verbal exist.

Autistic people who require minimal to no support exist.

Autistic people who require moderate support exist.

Autistic people who require full support exist.

Autistic LGBT people exist. (Reason why I bring this one up is because the media almost always shows cishet autistic men and I don't see autistic LGBT representation very often, if ever.)

Autism isn't something you can "catch". People have this same mentality about ADHD and Tourette's Syndrome too, which, by the way, you can't "catch" either.

Autism doesn't "go away" when you reach adolescence or adulthood. Why? BECAUSE AUTISTIC TEENAGERS AND AUTISTIC ADULTS EXIST. Autistic kids grow into autistic teenagers, then into autistic adults.

You can't "cure" it either. Unless you can build a time machine and a device to go back in time to change how a person's brain develops, there is no cure. ABA therapy is a fucking shit show in itself that does more harm than good.

The title of the video is a real squick for me too. It's mostly because I don't particularly enjoy people using person first language (the "boy with autism" part). I've seen many other autistic people on multiple other platforms sharing that same sentiment and preferring identity first language (autistic person). There are also others who prefer using person first language and those who don't have a preference. That's all perfectly valid. Whatever you prefer people using when referring to you, or whatever you refer to yourself as, in this case, is totally valid and I love you. This goes for disabilities in general, not just Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Regarding the message in this video, here's my response to it! A quick heads-up, my response is VERY long and VERY passionate. I was VERY close to making a response video where I tear that video apart AND tear Dhar Mann a new asshole. Unfortunately, it worked me up so much that I was really struggling with what I wanted to say and I had to stop multiple times because I kept stumbling on my words. That's how angry this message made me. I'll try my best to explain whatever parts you have questions about. I put my response in the nicest way I possibly could, despite me seething with rage, wanting to go OFF on him.

(The first part of my response are the first three screenshots, and the second part are the last three screenshots.)

The first part of my response, I did forget to add that the message is offensive and disrespectful to autistic people as a whole. I apologize. My initial comment got way too long. I pretty much covered that when I told him the message is ableist. I wanted to clear that up before anyone asks about it.

The second part of my response is me opening up about my experience with being diagnosed with ASD, formerly known as As//per//ger's Syn//dro//me, at sixteen years old. I also went into how not calling ASD what it truly is (which is a disability) and calling it a "different ability" instead is extremely harmful and is treating being disabled like it's a bad thing.

By the way, saying that a disabled person is disabled isn't a bad thing. I'm disabled. It is what it is. Does it have its challenges? You bet. Does it help me with certain things? Hell yeah. I can really absorb information about my favorite bands, characters, shows, books, etc., and tell you a lot about those things. For example, I can tell you that Su can't ride a bike or read manga and she's okay with that. I can also tell you she can't tie her shoes very well, which is why her boots don't have laces and are slip-on and/or zip-up. But that doesn't mean my struggles are nonexistent or that I never struggle. I do, and it makes my life Hell at times.

The narrative that autism is a bad thing to have, every autistic person is somehow broken and they all need to be "fixed" is also super fucked up and not true. That's the narrative that I received when I was diagnosed by a therapist I had. I'm gonna be real here, I cried when I was first told that I was diagnosed with ASD. I felt like I was broken. I already felt like a total outcast. Being told about my diagnosis made me feel even more broken than I already felt. I was so ashamed of myself, despite me not doing anything wrong whatsoever, that I masked for SEVEN YEARS of my life. I masked for so long that I forgot I was even diagnosed with ASD in the first place. I wasn't taught how to really put my special interests into good use. I kinda had to figure that out on my own. I was pretty much under the assumption that me being interested in anime, cartoons, music, comics, theatre, writing, etc., to the point of obsession, was somehow weird and hurting people around me. You know, despite those things being harmless. Despite me being able to separate those things from other things that are important (like work, for example). Despite my only surviving parent, other family members, and the woman he was dating at the time completely overreacting and not bothering to see exactly what makes these things so special to me.

(By the way, having a disability does not completely make who a person is. There are a lot more things that make who a person is than that.)

It's kinda shocking that I wasn't able to come to terms with my diagnosis until this year. Considering that I masked for so long due to being ashamed of myself, plus being treated like a burden for being disabled, it's probably not very surprising. I initially thought at the time that it was the worst thing to have, as I was already struggling with enough shit back then, but came to realize it's not a bad thing. It doesn't change who I am. But I'm glad I came to terms with it finally nonetheless.

This is getting way too long, so I'm gonna wrap things up here. If you've read this far, thank you so much. I'm sorry this got so long!

If you watched the video, what are your thoughts on it? If this is your first time hearing about Dhar Mann, how do you feel about him? If you're a Dhar Mann fan, did this change your opinion on him in any way? Feel free to sound off in the comments!

Have a great day, everyone!

I hope that you don't mind, but could I please get a Danganronpa match up?

I'm about 5'7 (possibly 5'8), I go by she/her pronouns, and I'm unsure of what my sexuality is, so go ahead and match me with either a male or female character!

I've got blonde hair that's about at the of my shoulder blades and blue eyes that oddly tend to change different shades depending on the season, I've got pale skin, and I'm extremely slim (I'm extremely self conscious about it and I hate my weight)

I'm extremely shy, but I've also got a big heart (though I apologize for everything even when the situation had nothing to with me), my self esteem extremely low, and I'm extremely bad about bottling up my emotions till I either blow my top or cry my eyes out. I also have extreme trust issues because of my past (neglectful parents, teachers hating me with out reason, and getting bullied in school), but if you can manage to earn (and keep) my trust I'll turn into a talkative and clingy ball of sunshine that you won't wanna get rid of (and you can't because I have problems letting people go)

My hobbies are reading books (fantasy and dystopian) and manga (MHA cause that's all I own), watching anime (Angles of Death, Moon Phase, MHA, TNP, ect.), attempting to draw without my self esteem killing me, and singing while I listen to music (though I get nervous when someone hears me and I have a habit of losing my balance and hissing at the person)

I hope this isn't too much of a problem

Take care of yourself, and have a good day!
