sum. an unknown substance had hit your face causing you distress, Law helped you rid of it. ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ tw. sex pollen. office sex. rough sex. ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ a/n. I love this trope and was kinda hoping to write it one day, which is this day!! Hope you guys enjoy :3 // do not translate or transfer to any other platforms, this is my only account, will not be crossposted anywhere. POLL DECISION.<33

As soon as the submarine resurfaced, you couldn't help but explore the newly discovered Island that was infront of your very eyes. Getting off the ship then walking to explore the forest like Island, you left trail remembrance of ribbons in each tree branches. While on your walk, you acknowledge all plant types that you come across of, such as tree's with various sizes, or various patterns of green, even small bushes that grew kinds of small red berries.

Walking around and distinguishing which berries or fruits are edible and poisonous, you come across a vine with a strange leaf and flower pattern, the flower being bigger than the vines itself, causing the vines to slowly give up on it. The flowers color hue was different, it was shaded a blackish red that faded into a greyish pink towards the middle. The vines were deep green colored and it grew thorns on it.

Curiousity took over you as you recalled all vines that you had studied on a book you had recently bought, most types of growable plants were there, but you certainly haven't come across this one. As you leaned your face closer to examine it, it's scent took over, the scent was flowery, sweet, and it reeked the smell of freshly cut grass.

Leaning your fingers through the vines, you touched the flower. As you tried picking it up, it squirted a pollen into your face, latching itself into your eye, causing you to scream at the sudden pain. As the others scream your name behind you, asking if you were okay. You had told them that something had just gotten into your eyes and that it wasn't such a big of a deal.

As the sun sets and the sky turns darker, you all had decided to call it a day and head back into the submarine before anything bad happens outside. Walking back behind several crewmates, you felt a burning sensation across your whole body, your mouth turned watery as heat pools between your legs. You had thought that you were just tired, or maybe even hungry and shrugged off the sudden feeling.

But as you make your way to your room, you felt the heat through your body again, rethinking about the way pollen had gotten into your eyes from the flower earlier, making you a tad bit concerned. You backed away from your room and proceeded to find your captains whereabouts to let him know what had happen. By the time you had catched him inside his office, you couldn't help but feel irresistibly horny.

—

"So you're telling me that a powdery substance got into your face, and that now you feel like you're burning?" Law makes sure that he had heard you correctly as you identify all the details of what had happened earlier.

"y-yeah, and I'm telling you— it's getting worser." As you finished the sentence, your cheeks had grown an even more pinkish hue.

"..That isn't likely to happen, what type of flower- or vine was it?" Even more confused, Law had no idea of what vine nor flower you talking about, talk about bad day.

"Well, it had a blackish red color and a bit greyish by the middle, and— the vines were dark green.." You were such sweaty mess right now, it's taking such a huge toll on your personality, causing you to slighty hump the chairs edge as you urge yourself to masturbate under the table while consulting Law, or just fuck it and take Law right here in his office.

"Hmm, well you do have a book th—"

"Fuck it Law! Please, take me right here right now!" As you ball your fist onto your thighs, having your thoughts win, you felt a pang of embarrassment wash over you.

Law looked towards you shockingly, examining how your face was bright red, and how you were 'burning'. He finally understood what you were trying to ring up on his mind. It wasn't any type of regular pollen that had brushed through you, it had some sort of aphrodisiac on it, causing your behavior to be distressed.

"Come here." He gestured you towards his lap. You obeyed him and made your way infront of him, slowly lowering yourself onto his thighs.

You felt his hands hold your hips, wasting no time, he lowered your bottoms all the way towards your ankles. Unzipping his pants, he lowers it to his knees together with his boxers, freeing his semi-hard cock, giging it a few pumps to harden its current state. He positions your legs onto his arms, and slowly lifting you up.

He latches you towards his cock, your wetness being enough to lube both of you up.

"Are you sure?" Taking a moment to reassure that you'll be fine with this.

"y-yeah, please." You reassured him.

Satisfied with your answer, he decides to slowly move you on his cock, making you bite a moan out of your lips. He continued thrusting you onto him slowly, making sure that you'll be just fine on his hands.

"No— don't hold back, please!" You held his hands, which were holding onto your legs.

Law hesitates with your order, but gives in as he knows that with your situation right now, you'd probably need it. Without a warning, his grip tightens and he continues thrusting you onto his cock faster.

The harder you contain yourself from biting back your moans, you eventually give up, your lips swollen from your teeth biting against it, causing blood to form on it. You released a low moan, enough to be heard by Law, followed with a much louder one, as you get used to letting out noises for him to hear.

Law jolts as you released a stream of moans from your mouth, causing his dick to twitch inside you. Feeling his dick grow inside you, your moans increase volume enough for the whole room to hear. Law hugs your figure whilst still holding your knees and thrusted harder and faster inside you.

You felt heat rushing through you as you about to hit your edge, you warned him with your upcoming release and he nods in response. A bit later, you felt climax jolt onto you as you released on his cock, embarrassment pangs through you as you realized what you just did.

Law slows his pace and continues thrusting inside you, making you release shaky breaths and panting. Law didn't stop even when you had reached your climax, now you felt a second one coming through. His pace once again picked up, being faster than earlier.

"L-Law— i'm, c-coming again—" warning him with your upcoming orgasm again, his pace picks up once again— this time it felt like volts of light colliding, your skins producing noises that you sworn could be heard miles away, your moans being louder and clearer, it was obvious that he was close.

"m'close— (name).."

"i-inside me— please!" As his pace slows down, you felt his release deep inside you, it was warm, warm enough to feed the coldness of his office.

He removes you from him, his release dripping off your entrance.

"Better?" He was panting and out of breath.

"Yes, thank you—" You stood up while holding onto the table for dear life.

"We should get you cleaned up, especially your face, you wouldn't want that happening again do you?" He leads you into the bathroom and hands you a towel.

If it meant by Law fucking you like that, maybe you shouldve preserved that little flower that gave you trouble, right? Definitely.

Red amber is a rare variety of amber characterized by its distinctive red color, which can vary from a light red or cherry hue to a deep, almost blackish red.

[aisling-saoirse]

Plant of the day: Black Cherry - Prunus serotina

Today I wanted to recognize a lovely early successional tree species, one of America's showiest "Cherry" species and a vigorous ecological powerhouse

Black cherry has quite the unusual range, commonly found All over the Eastern US but has multiple geographically distinctive subspecies throughout the West and Mexico. North from Minnesota to Nova Scotia south to mid Florida to east Texas, Additionally it can be found in Big Bend National Park, areas of Arizona and New Mexico. South of the border Black Cherry is found throughout the East, West, and South Sierra Madres mountains reaching as far south as Guatemala.

Black Cherry as I've encountered it grows mostly in old fields and disturbed grounds, but apparently in Mexico it occupies mountainous regions. The species is also able to live long enough to be part of some older forests as well. In terms of finding it, If you've ever driven down an Eastern-Midwest highway in May, you'll notice plenty with a stunning display of white flowers (see below). I saw them all the way out to Kansas on Route 70.

This cherry occupies weedy environments very well, usually ending up with twisted bent forms and has an incredibly high germination rate. This vigorous tree can dominate a seed bank for years (I've pulled probably thousands from my garden beds). In Europe-East Asia it is considered a problematic invasive...but here where it's native it can outcompete the worst competition.

Identifying black cherry is rather easy, it has a dark flakey semi-plated bark (below), while the stems are notably cherry like (horizontal fissures) at the stems and intact portions of bark. The heart wood is notably orangish in color and the leaves give off the cherry-like odor when crushed. Leaves are typically longish symmetrical semi-shiny, darkish green with one very visible vein and shallow serated edges. Flowers are white clusters reminiscent of horns present around late May to early June. The ripe fruit is blackish red and present around August, on a good year it's quite plentiful (and delicious).

Black cherry is a wild edible in a few forms. I personally like to snack on the sour ripe fruit and spit out the large seeds, in Mexico these fruits are referred to as cupelines! The most fruitful useage is probably making jelly from collected fruit (something I do not know how to do). Cough syrups were historically derived from the bark and are still present in popular tea flavors such as "throat coats" (awful name).

While marginally edible to us the black cherry is ecologically the most important native cherry species for wildlife. Not only is there plentiful fruit for birds and large mammals the tree is rated number three amoung supported lepidoptera species. Per Doug Tallamy and Kim Shropshire's research the Prunus genus supports [at least] 465 species of invertebrates.

In this vein a common species which inhabits these trees are eastern tent caterpillars (image from inaturalist). I bring them up only because people commonly confuse them for the spongy moth (formerly g*psy moth). But tent caterpillars live in groups and only really eat prunus species whereas spongy moths are devastating and solitary. Interestingly enough the leaves of black cherry contain enough cyanide to make these caterpillars toxic to most predators! Don't break up the tent, tent caterpillars won't kill your tree.

In terms of modern relationships with the tree, people mostly use it as a higher quality cabinetry wood. I believe this species is one of the more common cherry woods to recieve, it has a strong orange hue to its wood which lasts. People also refer this species as an aromatic wood...however having cut down multiple of these trees I hate the smell, fresh cuts are like a chemical cyanide scent...

Lastly I'll bring up causes for decline, lately I've seen a reduction in black cherry due to an introduced fungus called the black knot. This affects many cherry species and isn't always fatal but can kill a tree (hence why I cut down multiple). You can treat individuals if you spot them early by cutting infected branches and burning/burying them before they spore in spring.

Ultimately the Black Cherry is the less famous cousin to the showy Asian cherry cultivars, but still holds a punch of beauty and provides incredibly high ecological value compared to most other American trees. Happy hunting!

A couple of random fantasy foods/street foods/condiments, since we’re on the topic:

Wrad rocks. These are little bluish seed pods that look a little bit like hard, marble-sized blueberries, usually sold in little paper packets of about six or so. If you put one in your mouth and bite down, they pop and explode the bitterest taste you’ve ever experienced all over the inside of your mouth. Seriously. Incredibly bitter. They’re vile. But once the initial hit fades, the aftertaste is a sort of pleasant, warm, sweetish flavour, and they make you feel buzzed. Wide, wide awake. The effect doesn’t last long, but for about ten to fifteen minutes after popping one of these, you are aggressively awake and aware. The effect is not cumulative, and if you eat more than about three or so at once, or more than about ten or so consecutively every fifteen minutes, it does bad things to your taste buds, your stomach lining, and your ability to think complex thoughts, but wrad rocks are still extremely popular with night watchmen, college students, and the sort of kids who like to test who has the strongest taste buds or who can keep the straightest face under extreme provocation.

Durril/Lethifar/Blacktongue. A widespread condiment made primarily from the secretions of a particular subterranean fungus, blacktongue is, as one of the common names suggests, a very thick blackish sauce that sticks and coats to whatever it comes in contact with. It has a very strong, pungent, earthy taste, and it coats the back of your throat from smelling it, never mind tasting it. Very, very popular with dwarves, goblins, gnomes, and other subterranean peoples, it has long since made it onto the surface as well, and is very … not necessarily popular but well known among sailors, soldiers, explorers, and other people who spend long stretches of time stationed or exploring places where fresh food is problematic. This is because if you put a couple of drops of this stuff on anything, no matter how rancid, the blacktongue will still be all you can taste. So once you’re used to blacktongue, and you have some, you can eat pretty much anything. It also does stain your teeth and tongue over time, so ‘soldier’s blacktongue’ or ‘sailor’s blacktongue’ can be used to identify someone who’s subsisted on it for some time. Several variations on the recipe do exist, and various families, vendors and peoples have added other ingredients to alter the flavour profile a bit. This is usually accepted cheerfully enough, but most dwarves in particular strongly disapprove of several surface variations that have attempted to make the condiment sweeter, on the grounds that that taste is going to stick for some time, and there’s nothing worse than having coated the back of your teeth in black, fungal honey for the next four days of your life. Blacktongue is usually sold in little earthen jars that hold about four ounces or so. Trust us, a little bit goes a long way.

Rainbow Fry. A well-known coastal delicacy, rainbow fry are a specialty of street vendors, as their preparation is as much entertainment as food supply. A delicate white-fleshed fish, they are primarily known for the odd quirk that the meat of the fish will spectacularly change colours when heated. Roadside carts where vendors fry large pans full of thinly cut strips are a common sight in many coastal areas, where audiences can watch in fascination as the slivers go from white to emerald green to turquoise blue to shocking purple in the pan. It is generally considered, though, that carts which keep the fish in the pan as it goes through purple into more red and orange hues are there primarily as entertainment, as keeping the fish in the heat past the purple stage makes the flesh very tough and rubbery, and loses much of the quite delicate flavour. The ruby tones are very beautiful, and are often used in noble houses for more ornamental dishes, but eating red rainbow fry is not unlike chewing gristle in both taste and texture.

PART THREE!!

I'm so happy people are enjoying my little investigations on Side Order so... have some more!! I have sourced some/most of my information from Inkipedia! So credit to them for giving me a kickstart to this. It's also where I got the images! I'm not quick enough to get these myself!! Please keep in mind that I wrote this about as soon as the trailer dropped in the middle of school. So my opinions and descriptions may be outdated!

Investigating cryptic images:

[1/18]:

The description on Inkipedia reads: “A tall room containing an elevator, with blackish colored ink seeping out of a side window.” 

It’s just the visual description, which is helpful since the 18 images given to us are intentionally low quality and blurred. I want to focus on the details, though. The interior resembles what you would find in an Insane Asylum, or a Mental Asylum. Although they’re usually in soft colors, they are depicted differently in media like television, which is where most of the Inklings and Octolings culture is derived from. They’re usually shown to be in all white, mint green, blue, or pink. This is a stereotype of an asylum, and could be a mix of how most pictures of actual asylums are in black and white. The elevator reads 0 11, which could be the floor it’s on. Given the 0, there could be ~100 floors. And the blackish colored ink, could also be water. I say water because the surface doesn’t seem inkable, but ink can go on metal. I’m just trying to find alternatives for what it could be. It’s too transparent to be ink. Ink comes in completely solid colors without any transparency. It’s known to glow in certain conditions/circumstances, or have special effects to it, but not be transparent. So, this is either a thick water substance, or some sort of slime. I would add blood to the table, but there’s nothing for me to go off of in that department due to Inkling and Octoling blood not being shown in any form of canon media. My next focus is on the markings on the window. They cast a shadow, and are a bit runny like the substance on the side of the wall. So they’re likely the same material, my question is; “What is it from?”

[2/18]

There is no description for this image from Inkipedia. (OUTDATED) New description: "What appears to be white and red ink."

My first guess was blood. But seeing all of these blues and darker browns made me think; guts. The reason why I’m not saying ink is the same reason why I said the substance from the previous image wasn’t. Ink comes in 1 raw shade of color, with no transparency or changes to it. I will admit, it’s known to be a bit runny, but not as much as the substances shown in this image and in the previous image. Back to the claim of guts. Blood can be pretty watery, but obviously not as much as water itself, so there’s my justification for the connecting streaks. When blood starts to dry, it gets darker. And now, with the added thoughts of guts, this would explain the white and blue hues seen in the muscle systems of animals. I won’t say what guts these specifically are, but it would be terrifying to know that these are Octoling guts. (OUTDATED) Second quick idea! I still think its blood. But knowing how stuff is shaded sometimes, I'm more open to excuse this as some sort of red ink.

[3/18]

The description for this image on Inkipedia is: “Off the Hook smiling. Marina seems to be holding a megaphone.” (OUTDATED) New description: Off the Hook smiling. Both of their outfits appear to be new, and Marina seems to be holding a megaphone.

This is correct, Marina is holding a megaphone. They are also in different outfits, more obviously Pearl than Marina though. Pearl has an assortment of bracelets in pink, green, and silver on both wrists and arms. Her outfit is white, with a green undershirt with slightly longer sleeves. Pink isn’t Pearl’s fade color in this image, instead being a light green to match her undershirt. She’s holding something close to her face that looks like a small splat bomb. Instead of a golden zipper on her shirt, its silver on this outfit. I can’t tell what Marina is wearing, she doesn’t have a fade ink color here, and seems to be wearing something fluffy. That’s all I can gather on her. Again! I wrote this about as soon as the trailer dropped, so my opinion on some things may have changed! As always, feel free to include your own thoughts, theories, and ideas <3 NEXT: Cryptic images: [4/18] to [6/18] PREVIOUS: Nintendo eShop description

[snor-re]

Yes, I did write this inspired by the Billie Eilish Barbie song.

What was I made for?

The concept of one self is suspiciously wobbly,

As if someday the scales might tip right

Towards self esteem and light.

On other days it’s cold rain, a knife directed at security.

I am made of stardust and electricity.

In me wonders and one in a millions meet,

To form something perceived ordinary.

From my colours to my heartbeat.

Oh I am colour,

I am mostly brown,

From my eyes to my hair and lighter in my skin tone.

But I am also stormy browdy blackish blue,

I am the softest smiling orange hue,

I am a jollying jumpy green,

I am plain wonderful black, with sheen.

I am layered thickly angry red,

I am Carmine, Cider, Honey, Gamboge,

With specs of Juniper, Olive, Chartreuse,

Basil, Pine, Weed and Moss.

I am Navy, Indigo and cobalt green.

I am meant to be stunning, I am meant to be seen.

What am I made for?

I am made to sparkle and shine,

So scream out in rage and whine.

I am meant to sob and heal,

I am meant to shatter, to feel.

I am my personal fiddle, to play my own cord.

I am music and silence, I am meant to explode.

I will enjoy without shame and make my own rules.

I REFUSE to step into the pre-formed stencils for fools.

I am dignity and grace.

I am face plants and bruised knees.

I feel so much and sometimes I shut down,

But I do it all on my own.

I was made to live this life,

I will do so unapologetically and strive-

To reach my very best.

// haruhi saved yui, and the centipede’s interventions helped yui… somewhat. her spirit was returned to her battered body safely and she breathes once again, albeit with scars that will never heal. yui is a dead girl walking.

yet her spirit is still tainted with malice’s influence. this corruption manifests visibly on her right arm, a blackish-red hue covering her hand that tapers off just before her elbow. malice’s influence grows the more negative emotion yui is exposed to. various odd traits will show up on her until it spills over, where yui will become consumed by a shadow resembling her corrupted spirit form.

how sad. how sad.

she’s neigh uncontrollable and will attempt to drag down others with her, likely in a fatal manner. she can calm down if sources of negativity are removed from her vicinity for long enough; the shadows will recede back to her arm.

( in the aftermath she would be exhausted and would remain unconscious for several hours at the least. )

how sad. how sad.

because of her corrupted spirit, yui is marked. malice is willing to manipulate her for its own gain, and she is a perfect chess piece for the malevolent spirit to do so.

haruhi saved yui. but did she really?

Like most types of mold, black mold loves warm, dark, and damp areas inside your home. In fact, black mold is known to grow just about anywhere in your home that meets these specifications, including showers, kitchens, basements, inside insulation, toilets, or any form of organic material on your property. This can make it hard to detect a black mold issue since many of these areas are concealed or unnoticeable. Often, the first signs of a possible mold problem are odors or sudden shifts in overall quality of health. 

Health Warnings Signs of Black Mold 

Black mold can also pose numerous health risks. Some of the most common health effects of black mold exposure include allergy symptoms such as sore throat, runny nose, red or itchy eyes, wheezing, skin rashes, and sinusitis. However, more severe effects can occur with prolonged black mold exposure, especially in individuals with pre-existing health conditions. More serious issues include shortness of breath, frequent coughing, and fatigue. That is why it's best to let a professional clean up a mold infestation on your property. They have the proper protective gear and respiratory equipment to ensure their safety during cleanup. 

Black Mold Removal and Remediation

When you discover black mold on your property, your first step should be to call local mold removal and remediation experts. You can’t always stop mold from happening, but knowing how to act when mold is discovered is critical. Local professionals can remove mold spores and clean up the entire affected region quickly. With their expert skills and fast response, you can ensure the health and safety of your loved ones. 

Preventative Measures

Going forward, a few preventative measures can help alleviate the chances of a future mold invasion. First, eliminating past sources of mold is the best step to prevent future colonies from invading. Regular air vent cleaning can also prevent airborne mold spores from taking root given the right conditions. Keeping your home at the proper humidity level, repairing water damage issues ASAP, and contacting mold inspection professionals early on are also great preventative measures. Contact your local mold removal and remediation team today to learn more helpful tips or to begin your mold cleanup process.

What's one to do when the smell of blood is so powerful it pulls them from their duty? As jowls dribble with gore and ears perk with nostrils upon one Canis face flaring - the duo creatures from Hell's breast twist upon their quarry of death stricken. Beschutzer, the larger with a face of bone, marred in scars, blood and yellowed with time, needn't move its head to see, but its fur instead parted in places to reveal eyes upon its entirety.

Wide orbs of crimson in the matted sea of blackish purple hue - the beast upon four paws wrinkles its lips as it senses danger beyond their years of belief upon this plane.

The other beast, much leaner than that of its bear kin - starred with a haunting gaze. Tail wispy like spider webs and fur like willow tree hangs without touching the earth - almost moving with a breeze that wasn't there. It stared with its kin, the gaze of two eyes soon joined by the reveal of eight more focused upon its face alone.

Whilst paws were ankle deep in the gore of monstrous folk, long killed, long dead - they remained still when they caught the sight of vampiric power. Where the blood under them paled to that of this beast's presence... They understood their role, to not harm or fight, but that one --- That one held their attention like a moth to a flame.

Of awe, wariness, but also respect - as the duo hounds from the hellish licks of flame, lowered their heads in a bow of monster to monster. Weissager, the thinner of two large hounds, snapped his jaws around the throat of the marked human soul, devouring it within a gulp before snagging another for the road... Though his gaze remained upon that of Him, the Creature in Red.

Beschutzer took hold of three corpses in one singular bite, snorting through the gaping hole of his nasal canal to then part ways. Wading bear-thick paws through corpse pile and blood to rejoin with the shadow and return home. Weissager, sharp upon his tail - though his respectful bow of the head once more repeated before he slithered away like a passing breeze too.

Unprompted || Always welcome!!

Whatever had caused this, it had been a blood bath. Sanguine hues swept back and forth over the ocean of gore illuminated by nothing but the moonlight. Almost a century since he had laid them on a feast of such magnitude. Without shame, he would get on all fours and drink until he's had his fill.

That is until movement stirred him from his thoughts. What marvelous hounds; his own familiar Baskerville seemed to pale im comparison. Six hundred years on this planet, and there was still so much to discover. Still many more creatures even more bizzare than the likes of himself.

Alucard makes no notion to move. He's not afraid of such creatures, and they don't seem aggressive anyway. Hunting for sport was only fun if it was his OWN KIND. Likewise the hounds seem just as curious about him as he does.

And like that they turn to leave, but not without the cacophony of rumbling laughter from the vampire himself. " Leaving already? And with such a mess in your wake. It was you who caused all of this, no? "

An A4, hardcover book with 135 g paper, 47 illustrations and a foreword by my “partner in crime“ (over at @lovecrimebooks) Romina Nikolić.

This book has been made to match RADIANCE and, in extension, the upcoming RAVAGE. Yep, with COLOR CUT*. In blackish red.

Weighing: ~1,6kg

All tracked countries here: deutschepost.de/brief-international/land-fuer-land

>> Germany: 5€, internationally 17€ + (priority-which is with) tracking ~ 20€

*****

Content:

A Murder Husbands story, heavy on character development and (hopefully) story, spiced with sex (see rating below).

Not overly fluffy but with a happy ending. (Yep, despite what you might think in between.)

Murder Husbands as in Murder Husbands. With Murder Tableaus. And family. Murder Wives :)

This starts at the motel in TwotL, so there is original dialogue here, reinterpreting the scenes we were given. The story segues into pure fiction after the fall.

>> This story spans several years - it follows Will Graham and Hannibal Lecter after „The Fall“, the ups and downs of this obsessive and difficult relationship, trying to fit the monsters on their backs together. As well as their habits and appetites.

There are lots of turns and not everything is as it may seem at first.

This is my Season 4.

And 5 through 8.

Approximately. :)

This story has been posted and is available on Ao3. It has been, as mentioned before, corrected, some parts rewritten, polished up and properly set, enhanced and improved for this book :)

Excerpt:

From Baptism:

It takes an indistinct amount of time to get ‘back down to earth‘ as it were. Will is vaguely aware that there is a cramp in his legs, the fingers of his right hand hurt where Hannibal has gripped him too tightly, he is a mess, he hurts between his legs in places he cannot yet define properly and Hannibal - Hannibal is lying on top of him, making it hard to breathe, silently crying into Will’s neck. Will feels the best he can remember.

He carefully dislodges his left arm from Hannibal’s neck, dragging his fingers through the greying hair, petting. His legs drop and he winces, which seems to bring Hannibal back to himself. He raises his head, eyes bloodshot, his voice gravelly. “Will, I… I apologize.“

Will shakes his head slowly and places the fingers of his left hand against Hannibal’s lips. His gaze catches on the ring that Molly placed there and he realizes with a start that it has no place here in this bed. He feels more than sees Hannibal withdraw and quickly shakes his head again trying to placate and communicate his thoughts as clear as possible. “Take it off for me.“

Hannibal freezes above him. The look he levels at him does its best to make Will hard again but he really isn’t that young anymore. Will swallows. Hannibal slowly drags his right hand up at the side of Will‘s body, making him shiver. When he reaches his chest he follows his arm up until he reaches the hand that’s still raised between them. Slowly, very slowly Hannibal starts to push the ring off Will’s finger with his messy hand, never breaking his gaze. Hannibal encloses it in his hand when it’s off and carefully puts it on the nightstand at the other side of the bed. “What about it now?“

Hannibal’s voice is rough and Will knows that the answer he has isn’t what the question was about, but it is the only one he has to give. He tries to say it lightly, keeping his voice low. “Well, you took it from me. So, if we make this work, you’ll have to go and replace it.“

Something breaks in Hannibal’s gaze. There is light and darkness seeping into it in equal measure and it thrills Will to no end to see it. Hannibal’s voice is the roughest he has ever heard it, the accent strong. “I will not let you go, now.“

Will smiles. To everyone else, this would have been a threat. To Will, it’s the conclusion of a courtship that’s lasted six years. He’s been caught, and now he’s free. “Where do we go from here?“

Hannibal nuzzles into the Will’s neck, his words breathed onto sweaty skin. “How about we pay a visit to an old friend?“

*****

Final notes:

>> I don’t make money from this - the price on Etsy consists of the following amounts:

A4 hardcover print with color cut, heavy paper and bookend pages etc: 41€

Packaging: 2€

Etsy fees: 2€

+ Shipping

*IF this book sells 50 copies (in total**) I will be able to get some nice extras (ribbon bookmark, spot glosses at the very least).

** I’m going to order some for myself and a few artists, who preferred the book over monetary payment

Printing will commence after August 10th, 2018, with shipping following right after. Printed at same company that has printed Radiance and will print Ravage.

Books will be in foil and wrapped in bubble wrap and then in the actual packaging for shipment (aka lessons from Radiance. I’ll also check the weather forecast -.-).

IF there is something left when all is said and done I will donate it. Resumé will be posted here.

After August 10th 2018 I will close preorder.

This will be the only edition.

If there are some copies I need to get to reach the minimum to the next „step“ (with more extras) these will become available on Etsy afterwards.

There will NOT be a digital version for sale because I only negotiated with the artists for a printed version.

Soooo.... 🤗

Hope you like!!! 💕

“Will looks down into the fire, sees the reddish glow change ever lighter. Hannibal’s whisper is soft.

“Ready, my love?”

Will nods, throat tight. Hannibal takes the handle from him and Will holds out his left wrist to him, palm up, stabilizing his arm with is other hand.”

Illusion ch 12, of a blackish red hue, by Nalyra / @allionne​

⋆｡°✩ Official headshot references for the feral fish gremlins in Asphyxiating Stars fic ⋆｡°✩

✩ The rear red crown of fins on Sun's design are a nod to Eclipse, and are ornamental/fighting fins, meaning he rarely ever flares them out unless to emote, show off, or intimidate. They are capable of cycling to a blackish-blue hue and are meant to confuse or captive.

✩ Similarly, Moon's frilled crests displayed on either side of his face are ornamental/fighting as well. He rattles them to intimidate or to show off-- the latter he utilizes their translucent sheen under moonlight to make a dreamy-like, hypnotic effect.
