Miya&Mia's Tickletober Day 15 - Babysitter

Seo Hyunsoo x Baek Youngchan

A/N: *screams into the void*

Mentions of sex in this one, but nothing too serious

Ah yes, he was just like a kid. Bubbly and extremely happy and bright. Getting excited over the most stupid of things. Smiling widely without a care in this world. His grown up partner was a kid and he was definitely a babysitter.

And yet, he hated to admit that he enjoyed being Baek Youngchan's babysitter. It didn't matter how many times he denied it and acted like he hated every moment he shared with him; he actually loved spending time with Baek Youngchan and even missed him when he was out of his sight for more than half an hour. 

Though…

"This babysitter is tired," Seo Hyunsoo said, breathing heavily as yet another session of heated sex ended. 

"Hmm?" Baek Youngchan, as bright and full of energy as always, propped his head on his hand and looked at Seo lovingly. "Babysitter? Wait- are you talking about yourself?!" Baek Youngchan broke into loud laughter, collapsing on his back on top of the bed. 

"Yes, I'm talking about myself," Seo said, still a bit breathless and with his cheeks a bit red after hearing Baek's laughter. "You are just like a kid I have to look after!" 

Baek giggled playfully and Seo felt a vein popping on his forehead. He growled and moved forward, swinging a leg across Baek's body to straddle his hips. 

"You are just as annoying as a kid," he growled, but Baek's smile grin widened. "Maybe I should start treating you like one."

Baek arched an eyebrow, "oh? Will you stop having sex with me too?"

Seo halted, his breath hitching and Baek laughed again. 

"You-!" Seo grabbed Baek's sides, making him jump a little, and started squeezing, trying to tickle him. Trying.

Baek Youngchan chuckled, "what are you doing?" Seo's hands moved to his ribs, but Baek simply shifted positions, grinning up at him. 

"Are you not… ticklish?" Seo asked, feeling awkward as he stopped his hands and his cheeks turned red. 

"Hehe, I guess I'm not!" He said, grabbing Seo's waist and making him jump. "Are you, Hyunsoo?" 

Seo Hyunsoo barely had time to understand what was happening before he found himself under Baek Youngchan, his huge hands wrapped around Seo's tiny waist, tickling him gently. 

"I hahahahate yohohou!" He giggled, squirming while trying to cover his mouth and also push Baek off him. "I ahahaham tihihicklihish!" 

Baek chuckled, going for Seo's ribs, making him cackle loudly. "I can see, Hyunsoo. I think the only kid here is you, since you are so ticklish!" 

Seo shook his head, throwing his head back. "Yohohou ahahahare the chihihildihish ohohone!" 

"Sorry, I can't hear you! You are laughing too much!" 

Why did he like this childish bastard so much?!

Seasons of Blossom

I finished watching this kdrama yesterday and I absolutely loved it! Its such a sweet, pure and heartbreaking documentation of love, loss, and moving on.

in this fanart I sketched today we have Han So Mang(So Joo Yeon) and Lee Ha Min(Seo Ji Hoon) in the background, with Lee Jaemin(Kim Mingyu), Yoon Bo Mi(Kang Hyewon), Choi Jinyoung(Yoon Hyun Soo) and Kang Sun Hee (Oh Yujin) in the front. I drew them without references, in the way that they were retained in my memory, and therefore might not be accurate.

That being said, it’s an amazing show to watch. Now go enjoy!

[femmefitz]

XXX Buddy is probably one of my fave ongoing bl manwhas rn. The art is so good and the story is pretty good at balancing its different aspects of comedy, drama, and erotica.

Slight points off for bad consent communication (that is in character but so far unaddressed) and well. Sometimes his dick makes you go 😰.

Day 3 - Ginny's birthday Extravaganza | N$FW

A/N: Third day of Ginny's week! I hope you enjoy these wonderful and very hot babies, my sweetest girl! I love you endlessly! @otomiya-tickles

Summary: Baek Youngchan and Seo Hyunsoo try something different in bed~

"I hate this."

"Hmm? How much?" 

How it infuriated him to hear that mocking tone in Baek Youngchan's voice. He must have been out of his fucking mind to accept something like this, that's for sure, but he couldn't fool himself; when Baek Youngchan told him that he would like to try something new in bed, Seo just couldn't say no because, as much as he hated to admit it, Baek Youngchan was very good in bed.

He made him feel great all the time and the orgasms he achieved with this man were out of this world. So if Baek Youngchan wanted to try something a little kinkier, Seo wouldn't say no, but of course he would act like he didn't want to do it.

It was useless anyway, because Baek Youngchan knew him embarrassingly well. 

Seo squirmed with a small growl purring in his chest. He pulled on his arms and legs and when he felt the pressure of the handcuffs around his wrists and ankles, he couldn't help but feel a shiver of excitement, butterflies fluttering in his lower belly. 

He clenched his fingers and toes and squeezed his eyes behind the bandage around his head. Not being able to see made him really nervous, but at the same time very excited. Being under Baek Youngchan's power, completely naked and when he couldn't move or see, made adrenaline rush through his body and caused his cock to tremble slightly. 

He squirmed once more, before opening his mouth to release more venom at Baek Youngchan. "Will you ever start doing something or will we stay like this all night?" 

Baek Youngchan chuckled, "so eager already? Didn't you say you were hating this?"

"Hmph! Whatever!" Seo huffed, a soft pink hue leaking behind his blindfold. "You better start doing something, though, or else- haah! A-Ah, what's that?! It's itchy!" 

It was not only itchy, it also tickled! Something soft dragged across his lower belly, drawing a trembling line from hip to hip that had Seo's skin prickling with goosebumps. Seo gasped and squirmed, pulling at his bonds, trying to jerk away from the soft touch.

"S-Stop," he whined, "that f-feels awful, I- ahahaha! Ack!" 

Aaghh! He wanted to kick himself in the face! Why was his skin so damn sensitive?! The soft thing dragged up from one of his hips to the tender skin right under his ribcage, the muscle jumping when the tickling sensation disturbed it. 

The flush on Seo's face traveled to his neck and ears. Last time he checked, Baek Youngchan didn't know he was ticklish, but now- dammit! 

"B-Bahaek Y-Youngchan! You b-bahastard, thihis w-wasn't what I- ahahaha! Nohoho!" 

This son of a-! The soft object had yet again changed spots, moving up from where it was languidly drawing circles under his ribs to his chest, quickly settling in one of his nipples. 

A deep moan escaped Seo's lips and he pulled at his restrained limbs again, his body arching against the touch. It fucking tickled! He felt sparks of overwhelming sensations all over his body, it made him want to crawl out of his skin, but the sparks were also slowly making their way to a certain part of him that was getting harder and harder the more Baek tickled him. 

"A-At least s-s-say someth-thing, nnghh! Haah!" 

"You're so pretty."

Seo whined, his hips jerking upwards a little. He had to come and say such a thing with such a loving voice, huh?! Seo hated him so much, he hated him, he hated- 

"AHAHAHA, n-nohohot thahat p-plahahace!" Seo barked out bright laughs when he felt the tender touch climbing from his erect nipple to his taunted armpit. 

It brushed lightly over the skin, but Seo was a sensitive man and that was one of his weakest spots, so he really couldn't help but laugh, head thrown back as he pulled at his arm. 

Why was tickling, of all things, making him feel this way?! He was fully erect by now, his cock sticking up proudly as it bounced with every of his movements. This was so humiliating! 

"These are feathers, it kinda looks like a duster," Baek said over Seo's laughter as he twirled and brushed and shook the feathers against the sensitive underarm, drawing out more of that delicious moany laughter. "It's pitch black and it contrasts with your skin so nicely, Hyunsoo. I'd like to take a picture."

"D-Dohohon't you dahah-ah! N-Nohohoho! It's too lihihihight!"

Baek chuckled and Seo felt fucking butterflies in his stomach. "Should I go harder?"

"AHAHAHA! N-Nohoho!" Seo cackled when he felt a couple of squeezes against his waist. "L-Lihihihight is goohohod!"

"That I can see," Baek Youngchan said and Seo squeaked when the feathers were suddenly off him.

He went limp against the bed, trying to calm his breathing and feeling his body shaking slightly. His dick was hard as a rock and his hips were circling a little; he already felt precum leaking from his tip and he whined. For how long would Baek Youngchan play arou-

"Nnghhh!" 

He was startled when he felt Baek's mouth closing around one of his nipples, his teeth gently scraping against the sensitive skin and then his tongue flicking against it, making him moan loudly. 

"Nngh, s-stop. I don't- haah! N-Noho! Nohot tihihicklihing agahahain!" 

There were no feathers this time, but Baek's fingertips lightly tracing his skin. Thumbs gently rubbing against his hips, nails dragging up his sides and skittering against his belly and under his ribs; and then moving higher and higher until he reached Seo's armpits.

"Ahahaha! H-Hohohohold ohohon! N-Not thahahat spohohohot!" 

Baek Youngchan barely hummed as he lifted his head, the string of saliva connecting his mouth to Seo's nipple teared apart when he lowered his head to Seo's other nipple. 

"Aangh! B-Bahahaek Y-Yohoungchahan- aha! S-Stohohop!" 

Seo was seeing stars. Baek's fingernails gently, lightly, tenderly scratched at his taunt skin, making him laugh and giggle and squirm slightly. His sensitive nipples tingling as Baek gave them all the attention with his mouth. He was going crazy, his brain felt like mush, the combination of sensations driving him up the wall in the most amazing way possible. 

He was going to cum. 

"Stopstopstopstop, I'm gohohonna- nngh!" 

He felt his mind going blank, his sight blurring as thousands of sparks flew as he finally reached his peak. His cum spurted out as he trembled and cried out a yell of ecstasy and pure bliss.

He was left trembling with aftershocks, breathless and dizzy, seeing little dots dancing infront of his eyes and forgetting about everything and anything, except for the strong hands clasping his waist, grounding him. 

"You're not going any softer," Baek Youngchan purred, his eyes dark with lust. "Maybe it is time for this?" Seo weakly lifted his head. 

Ah, it's definitely #F9AAAE. Seo's eyes turned into hearts upon seeing Baek's erect cock and he gulped, nodding quickly. 

"Hurry up, hurry up!" 

Baek smiled, undoing the bonds around Seo' ankles so he could angle his legs perfectly. "So eager. Stay still for me, Hyunsoo. I'm going in."

Ah, Baek treated him so stupidly nicely. How could Seo possibly deny him anything he wanted?

[not-poignant]

Hi, Pia.....Do you mind if I ask your top 10 favorite characters (can be male or female) from all of the media that you loved (can be anime/manga, books, movies or tv series)? And why do you love them? Thanks if you want to answer...

Hi anon!

So... they change and tbh I'm going to forget a ton of characters I love and then scream in my head later like 'oh no but THAT character and THAT character and THAT character' but I'll do my best!

Kiriyama Rei from March Comes in Like a Lion - Probably my favourite character possibly of all time. Introverted, kind of ace-coded right up until the end of the manga when it changes (and since the anime never ended he stays ace-coded throughout that lmao), very human, extremely depressed, and I just think he's a very good depiction of like...what it's like to live with extremely repressive depression and post-trauma while not necessarily knowing you have those things.

Dazai Osamu from Bungou Stray Dogs - He's a brilliant intellect genius with too much ability to know so much about the world that he kind of ends up suicidal all the time due to his upbringing / some of the things he's done and also what he's experienced. I just enjoy him. (Notable runner up here is Nakahara Chuuya but dslkajf)

Felix Harrowgate from the Doctrine of Labyrinths trilogy - Angsty, PTSD, waspish, 'I'm going to hurt you because I was hurt and then hate myself and do very self-destructive things about it but keep that part a secret so I just look like a constant dickhead,' brilliant, very good at magic. Love this dude. Would walk hundreds of miles for this dude, like the song. Would definitely write a long-ass fanfic about him.

Daeshik from Love So Pure - I love this guy SO much. He's a side-story / secondary pairing in the manhwa but I LOVE him because he's so against type. He's dorky but not in a very cute way, he's overbearing, he's SO neurodivergent coded it's painful and sometimes hilarious, he's determined and ambitious, he's not 'hot' in any typical kind of twink way, and I know he's split the fandom between 'god he's so annoying' and 'Daeshik is the BEST.' The whole webtoon is fucking amazing anyway, but Daeshik has my whole heart in his journey from 'dorky annoying overbearing friend' to 'oh I just realised I'm gay and now everything is Pride Pride Pride and I'm definitely crying next to a dildo I bought that was too big for me.'

Presenting Daeshik:

You'll never guess what he's sitting on sdlkjfas (he fails abjectly and then cries about it in a way that's kind of hilarious honestly).

Dana Scully from The X-Files - I didn't know it at the time, but this was very much my bisexual awakening. I mean I'm pretty heavily ace now, but I'm mostly not into cishet dudes, and I had pictures of Scully up on my wall like how did I not fucking know. Anyway, scientist, smart, 'so done with your shit' and just wry and witty and *clenches fist* so short and tiny and powerful. I love her. (And Gillian Anderson).

Loki from the MCU - Not necessarily every iteration, but I do love how Tom Hiddleston plays him, and I appreciate the queerer representation. Adore this guy. Look at him, what an absolute dickhead of a god. 10/10 would read him in hurt/comfort fics and PWPs again.

Hyunsoo Seo and Youngchan Baek from Perfect Buddy / XXX Buddy - Possibly my favourite manhwa of all time and I really hope that stays true because it's not finished yet. Idk how to describe these characters because they're both very complex as you get to know them better, but basically 'angry wet cat man with past trauma that he hides exceptionally well vs. Gwyn-dimensioned blond puppy dog who is just pretending to be a puppy dog because he knows exactly how threatening he is and is willing to be to protect the people he loves.'

Murderbot in the Murderbot novella series - I think all of us - or most of us - find Murderbot incredibly relatable and that's refreshing as fuck in any novel series tbh. (ART as runner-up though, love that fucker).

Sebastian Michaelis from Kuroshitsuji / Black Butler - Honestly there were a lot of kind of 'extremely powerful but kind of shitty fuckboys' I wanted to put in this category including Gojou Satoru from JJK, Reigen from MP100, and even Louis from Beastars, but Sebastian's gonna win out because I still don't know if he's going to eat Ciel at the end of that series and I very much love not knowing because he's such a devious fuckhead. Love that not-actually-a-man.

Yuurakutei Yakumo (Kikuhiku) from Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu - I just... *flails* Almost no one has seen this anime series and it kind of kills me because firstly the books were written by someone practiced in writing BL and even though this isn't BL you can still tell the vibes are there. Secondly, one of the most ace-coded characters ever. Gender-fuckery abounds, which is fun. Thirdly just, honestly, more folks should watch this?

There were a lot of characters I know I missed but I'm pretty satisfied with this list.

I've just given myself a bunch of stuff to rewatch and reread because of this anon! :D

BL Recs - Office Romance

Anyone else loves a hot inappropriate office romance? 🌝 I’ve been exploring this genre in manga/manhwa for a while and have found so many gems! This trope usually walks hand in hand with light humour, flirty banter, enemies to lovers and cute slice-of-life (not to mention the sexy a/b/o dynamics!) which I absolutely love. These are all light and fun comfort reads, perfect choices as a palate cleanser between heavier, angsty stories. Here are some personal favourites - I hope you enjoy them!

Ameiro Paradox by Natsume Isaku

A change in the stakeout team throws Onoe, reporter for a weekly magazine, together with his contemporary, Kaburagi, a photographer. Onoe secretly considers Kaburagi his rival, and Kaburagi's haphazard way of doing things goes against Onoe's strong sense of ethics--there's nothing but conflict between them. But, in joint pursuit of a scandal, the two of them begin to care about each other...?

Beta Off Not Dating by Mintran, Saena, Doojja

Juhyeok is a clueless beta who is thrust into the messy world of alpha-omega dynamics when he leaves his wholesome beta college to work at a more diverse company. There, a full-on fistfight and loud makeup. Repulsed by the pheromones that trump common sense in this crazy environment, Juhyeok swears himself off dating until he saves up enough money to move to a faraway haven for betas.

Day Off by Qing Cai

Sometimes sweet, sometimes sour, and always relaxing, this is a fluffy office romance about a powerful yet gentle superior (who’s occasionally a picky eater) and his cute and earnest subordinate (who’s a silly young Gemini).

Doushitemo Furetakunai by Yoneda Kou

On his very first day at a brand-new job, shy Shima is trapped in the elevator with a hungover mess of a guy…who turns out to be his boss. Togawa’s prickly exterior definitely puts the rookie recruit on-edge, but it doesn’t take long before Shima’s every waking thought is invaded by his overbearing yet totally thoughtful superior.

It’s Not Like That by Gangto, Lime

Under pressure from his unimpressed parents, BL writer Lim Iro is forced into applying for a “real” job. But instead of a cover letter, he accidentally submits an unreleased extract from his book instead. Disaster! Or maybe not…? Faced with Iro’s unconventional application, Baek Ho-ryung, the dashing CEO of Beus drinks company, is intrigued.

On or Off by A1

Yiyoung is building a startup with his college friends. They get a chance to present their proposal to SJ Corporation, one of the leading companies in the country. But in the meeting room he sees Kang Daehyung, the extremely handsome company big shot that's very much his type.

Perfect Buddy by Lash, Daki

Seo Hyunsoo is sure of one thing: people are scum and they will always disappoint you. Sure enough, at his very first company dinner after his transfer to a new department, he finds his coworker, the obnoxiously upbeat Baek Youngchan, performing an unsavory deed in the men's bathroom. As much as Hyunsoo would like to avoid Youngchan from that point on, Youngchan seems intent on not letting him out of his sight...

Punch Drunk Love by Moscareto

Park Sunwoo, who prefers a pair of thick glasses and an awkward-fitting suit, is an employee of DM Electronics' Financial Accounting Team. While secretly spying on his unrequited love as usual, he finds out that Jung Taemoon enjoys promiscuous and rough one-night sex.

The New Recruit by Moscareto & Zec

After spending his 20s getting over a crush, Seunghyun vowed to never give his heart to someone in the same field again. Enter Jongchan, Seunghyun's tough new boss with a surprising soft side.

You Get Me Going by Moscareto, Oh doyeon

Despite being thirty-three, Young-won sure is gullible. He falls in love way too easily, comes on way too hard, and still believes that he’ll meet “Mr. Right” sooner or later. Not that he knows who “Mr. Right” is, but he sure does know about “Mr. Wrong,” a.k.a. Kang Hyun-woo. Young-won swears that he’ll never, ever get together with this polar opposite of his, but the universe sure seems to think different.
