A typical "I got carried away while practicing anatomy and the allure of rendering shiny gold was too great" WIP
Also jesus christ he's holding the little cloth that's attached to his belt. I am putting this here just to cover my back in case anyone thinks I am much bolder than I actually am. That's not his dick, I'm just bad at rendering bunched up fabric
And even then, I will always maintain leaving things up to the imagination is infinitely more tasteful like 65% of the time

A study from reds references Medusa set.
I wanna talk about what an amazing reference this is. Parts of it look weird and my brain resists because that's not how it was taught anatomy, like, the left torso and hip seem too long, the upper body seems lopsided. It's challenging! Human bodies are so awesome and weird and bendy and stretchy.
What's going on here and why is it so freaking awesome?
Her left scapula must be very rotated towards the camera, which is making the pec, shoulder and bicep on that side look muscular, and bringing that lat round so you can see the side of it (which feels wrong to draw from this perspective !) Her right scapula must be held straight and pulled away from her torso, which is stretching out her pecs on that side and making it feel lopsided to draw compared to the left side.
Her abs are engaged, so they're tilted upwards, but her pelvis is tilted forward, the right side is raised, and it's rotated towards the right, making this fascinating angle and stretching and bunching the muscles in ways you rarely get to see.
Awesome contraposto, the right shoulder held without rotation like that makes the pose surprising and unique. That's not even touching on the bonkers medusa headgear and gorgeous oranges, greens and blues that I'll take a stab at when I have some yellow. Painting this reference made me appreciate it even more tbh.

this is just..... *dies in his arms*
Oh, i dropped something! What could I have possibly-
[TW: mentions of blood and minor injury, suggestive under the cut, MDNI!!!]
You could barely differentiate who was friend and who was foe. The sounds of guns, along with the mighty crack of thunder- courtesy of Thor- and the singing of vibranium clouded your sense of hearing.
Your gun unloaded bullets on bullets, and when they weren't enough, you reached for the throwing knives tucked neatly in sheaths strapped to your thighs. Loki's rune glimmered on the hilt- a tell-tale sign that you were not to be trifled with, especially in his absence- and you got to work, cutting through H.Y.D.R.A soldiers.
Flashes of green kept appearing in your periperals, and you felt relaxed knowing your God of Mischief was untouched, probably having the time of his life. Stark and the others chattered in your ear piece, all of you occasionally communicating your locations, until the fighting finally settled down.
You trudged through the mess through to where Loki was cursing, and immediately your pace picked up, fearing the worst. Instead, your eyes widened,
"Oh, fuck..."
He had a small cut along his upper arm, and instead of using his magic, pulled off his green-turned-black tunic, the gold having a bloody tint, the green fabric soaked through as he panted, wincing lightly from the discomfort of the cut, while you eye-fucked him blatantly. His raven locks were matted with the red liquid, and his drenched shirt was practically useless, so he tossed it to the side, discarding it carelessly, in turn giving you access to oggle the delicious washboard abs at your disposal. His lats rippled when he pulled it off, and you swore your mouth watered, tongue darting out to wet your lips.
You were never one for any type of play that didn't involve spit or otherwise, but in that moment, you decided you'd happily lick the blood and sweat off of him if he asked. His torso, his arms- hell, even his face- were soaked in blood.
"Darling," He said in way of greeting as he cupped your face, scanning you for any injuries before his emerald gaze studied yours, and he smirked.
"Is there something on my face, agent?"
Dark red blood that certainly wasn't his. He wiped at his face in vain, smudges of blood caking his cheeks, yet his smile was as devious as ever as he beheld you, his hands running over your middrift, holding onto your hips with a crooked smirk that made your knees weak, and your core clench with heat. Your stomach sucked in, as if to tamper down on the unhinged lust.
It was blood, for fuck's sake. But dear Lord above... the things you'd do to your God tonight in the name of 'active recovery'...
[La Fin.]
uhm... WOAH. don't know where that came from,,, HAHA (i have a problem).

Secret Reward
Jake was your everyday college student who stood at a petite 5'4" and as thin as a plank of wood. He was often bullied for being nerd due to his intense love for academics and passion for learning. Despite his small size, he was a force to be reckoned with when it comes to academics. He was taking a chemistry class which was required as a science credit in order to graduate, but the subject matter is proving to be a challenge for him.
However, in class, the professor announced that there would be a secret reward for the student with the highest grade on their final assignment. This news motivated Jake to work even harder and study even more intensely. He poured all of his effort into his studies, determined to earn that secret coveted prize. When the final grades were released, Jake was elated to see that he had received an A+. He had never been more proud of himself, and he couldn't wait to find out what the reward was.
As he walked up to his professor, A+ in hand, he asked what his prize would be. The teacher handed Jake a potion, telling him that it was a special mixture that would grant him one wish. Without hesitation, Jake wished to become an incredibly muscular football player. He had always dreamed of being on the football field, making amazing plays and thrilling the crowds.
As Jake drank the potion, he felt an intense energy coursing through his body. His muscles began to grow and bulge, starting with his biceps. They expanded and became defined, rippling with strength. Next, his chest began to transform, expanding and becoming wider, with well-defined pecs. His abs became chiseled and tight, creating a six-pack that was the envy of all who saw it. His abs tapered off towards his crotch which swelled with manliness as a deep odor emenated from his throbbing member.
Jake's legs became stronger and more muscular, with quads that bulged with power, squeezing his crotch, and sending waves of orgasmic pleasure through his body . He could feel the strength in his legs, and he knew that he would be able to run and jump like never before. His back became wider and more defined, with lats that tapered into a V-shape. He could feel the power in his back, and he knew that he would be able to make amazing plays and tackle with ease. Finally, his shoulders broadened, becoming wider and more defined. They were powerful and could deliver crushing hits on the field.
As the transformation completed, Jake had become an incredibly muscular football player, with a body that was strong, agile, and full of power. He was amazed by what had happened and couldn't wait to hit the field and show off his newfound abilities.
The chemistry professor smiled as he watched Jake. Not only was he the smartest kid in the school, but he was also the star quarterback. He is unstoppable.

Avanzi di gipsoteca
Tumblr media
Leggo di un'università americana (l'università "di Kamala Harris", nel senso che è proprio sua, l'ha comprata con i suoi risparmi) che si appresta a eliminare gli studi classici dalla sua offerta formativa in quanto veicoli della cattivissima cultura bianca. Inutile stare a discutere essendo la dialettica stata inventata anch'essa dai greci. Un professore di filosofia afro-americano, noto attivista per i diritti civili (Cornel West, "Cornelio Occidente", nomen omen), fa però giustamente notare che anche Martin Luther King leggeva Socrate (vale a dire Platone) e che l'eliminazione dei classici dalle scuole sarebbe una "catastrofe spirituale", non è della stessa opinione (dal lat. opinio -onis, affine a opinari «opinare») lo storico di Princeton Dan-el Padilla Peralta che si auspica invece che la memoria di Socrate e degli antichissimi romani possa essere cancellata il più presto possibile dalla faccia della terra. Povero Socrate, una vita spesa a cercare il Bene e si ritrova dalla sera alla mattina ad essere rappresentato come il simbolo del Male, "ab origine" (locuzione latina che in caso di cancellazione della cultura classica andrebbe ritradotta con "from the beginning"). E io, che cerco da anni di accreditarmi come filosofo e per giunta leggo Schopenhauer? Cancellato d'emblée da tutti i cursus honorum dell'internet. �� per questo che oramai mi sono dato alla grafica, che però non è ugualmente esente dalla politica in quanto hai senz'altro più possibilità di vendere i tuoi disegni sulle piattaforme americane se ci infili sulle tazzine l'immaginetta battagliera di una Ruth Bader Ginsburg qualsiasi piuttosto che del povero Socrate, disprezzato da morto qual era in vita, sepolcro imbiancato, avanzo di gipsoteca.

Hello ma belle! Don’t answer if you don’t want to/have time but since you’re a dancer and (I assume) know a thing or two about flexibility and stretching, I was wondering if you have any advice on upper body strength/stretching for people who are super NOT flexible (like me!!). As a student (especially now since everything is online) I spend a lot of time in front of the computer and my shoulders and back often hurt at the end of the day, and I want to be a little kinder to my body. Thank you <3
Hi! I’m so sorry this took a while (I had a lot I wanted to include but I wasn’t sure how much I should include and then I wanted to get some videos too). Honestly I love talking about flexibility and training and stretching so never apologise for that!
Anyway, here's a little "spine reset" routine I like to do when I've been sat at my desk too long (I do it every 45 mins or so, but you can do it more or less). I kinda rush through it here but I recommend holding each position for at least 15 seconds. Honestly though if something feels good then you can spend as long as 90 seconds in it (after that your muscles kinda switch off and you can start to push too deep into a stretch and hurt yourself).
Written instructions below + another video and written instructions (this gets hecka long so it’s going under a cut)
WRITTEN GUIDE TO EACH STRETCH:
1. Clasp your hands together in a prayer position, then kneel with your elbows on your desk. If it hurts your elbows, pop a cushion or a jumper underneath them. Push your chest to the floor. Neck stays neutral.
BONUS FOR ADDED DELICIOUSNESS (to build some strength in your upper back muscles/really target problem areas): Keep pushing your chest to the floor as you tuck your tailbone under. The goal is not to round your whole back, just shift the stretch more deeply into your upper back. If you do this right, you will feel your upper back muscles working!
2. Place both hands on your desk (or a windowsill/bookshelf/wall if your desk is too low - you can also do this kneeling or with bent legs). Push your chest towards the floor, then move side to side. For a deeper stretch, do one arm at a time, using your other arm to pull your lats towards the floor. Neck stays neutral.
TIP: DO NOT JUST JAM INTO YOUR SHOULDER JOINT, YOUR SHOULDERS ARE FRAGILE AND WILL NOT APPRECIATE YOU JUST RAMMING THEM TOWARDS THE FLOOR. Make sure you shrug your shoulders up by your ears (as if you were pushing your desk away) to help keep them protected and actively think about lifting your chest (like there's a sexy person opposite you and you're trying to show them your boobies).
3. Stand up, take your arms out to the side, stick your bum out and lift your chest to the ceiling (yogis often say "heart to heaven" or something; I usually shout "TITS TO JESUS" at my students). I like to move around a bit in this position as twisting your spine a little is good for opening everything out. I usually do this a couple of times. Head back in this one.
4. Clasp your hands together behind your back, bend forwards and take your hands over your head. I tuck my chin to chest in the video but it’s better to keep your neck neutral. Come back up and arch back like in the previous stretch.
5. Lift one arm, bend it behind your head and use the other arm to pull. For extra stretch, lean over to the side and try to touch your hip to your elbow. Keep your chin off your chest and your abs engaged, otherwise your lower back will once again do all the work when you want to be targeting your shoulders/lats. Make sure you do both sides!
6. Place your elbow and palm on your desk, hand in line with your elbow and elbow in line with your shoulder. From there, push your chest down. If you don't feel it (I never do but idk if that's bc my shoulders are hypermobile), twist away from the shoulder your stretching (I use the chair to help push me further into it). Make sure you do both sides! Neck neutral or looking away from the side your stretching.
**
Now for some floor stretches/strengthening exercises. I normally only do one set of any of these because I do them as part of my warm-up plus ADHD means I frankly do not have the attention span to do more than one set of anything, but you can do multiple sets (3 sets is usually good). You don’t have to do them every day but they’re good to add into your workout or to do as a mini-workout on their own (make sure you warm up though!)
QUICK LITTLE THING ABOUT BACK STRETCHES: when doing any back stretches, make sure you think about stretching your whole spine. Your spine naturally likes to bend in 1-2 places (for most people it's the bottom part, other people it's just below the shoulder blades) so really try to think about lengthening your spine and then trying to curl each vertebra individually (this is really hard to actually do, but thinking about it that way helps! Closing your eyes so you can focus on the feeling helps too). 
1. Body waves/spine mobiliser - Moving through child's pose, cow and cobra in both directions. When you lift up into your cobra, try to use your hands as a little as possible (this is really tough to start with but I promise you your back will get stronger!). Take it as slowly or quickly as you like. 2-5 in each direction
2. Back crunches - KEEP YOUR BUTT ENGAGED THE WHOLE TIME, like really think about pushing your hips into the floor. If this is really difficult you and put your feet under a sofa or pop ankle weights on so you can use your hamstrings to help. Again, try to think about curling up and using your whole back rather than just crunching from one part of your spine. Neck stays neutral. 8-12 reps
3. Cobra lifts - These are a little tricky, but they're amazing for building strength in your back. Clasp your hands together, SQUEEZE YOUR BUTT REALLY HARD, then slide your hands down your legs, squeezing your shoulder blades together to lift you up. You may find you don't get anywhere with this at first, but if you persevere your back will get a lot stronger! Neck neutral (I take mine slightly back in the video bc we do that in contortion training). 3-5 reps, hold at the top on your last rep for 5-10 seconds.
4. Supermans - I fucking hate these with a passion but they are good for your spine. Start on your front, then lift your arms and legs (and chest if you can) off the floor. If these are difficult, start by doing just your arms, then just your legs. If this hurts your hip bones, put a jumper/towel/mat underneath. Neck neutral (again I take mine back bc contortion training has me used to doing that). 8-12 reps.
5. Cobra stretch - always start at the top of your spine!! I see so my people just put their hands by their shoulders and push straight up and you miss out on SO MUCH upper back mobility by doing that! Start by curling your neck, then working down your spine one vertebra at a time. Think about pushing your chest forward, then curling round. As you walk your hands back, turn your fingers out to the side to help open your chest out. Again, you can think "heart to heaven" if that helps. Remember to breathe! Breathing is super important.
6. Cat stretch/puppy pose - kneeling down, arms forward and chest to the floor if you can (you can bring your chest more forwards if you find this difficult). Keeping your chest glued to the floor (or as low as you can get it), tilt your hips back and forward. Again, this is to help target your mid/upper back a bit more (if you do it right you'll feel your mid/upper back working trying to keep your chest down!)
ANOTHER LITTLE THING ABOUT BACK STRETCHES: Make sure you strengthen your core too! If you do the above workout, I recommend also doing some planks, dishes or crunches of some sort afterwards to reengage your abs/core muscles and keep your spine protected. You should also round out your spine the other way to reset it (happy baby pose and child’s pose are my faves for this).
I hope that helps! Good luck with all your studying and I hope your back feels a little better <3

Importance of Using Ab Wheel Roller For Overall Fitness
We all are living in times where people have realized the importance of working out and taking care of their bodies. That is the reason why we have witnessed such a mega rise in gymnasiums, exercise equipment, supplements, etc. People now work hard on building their bodies by using top-quality gym equipments. We spend hours either in our home-gym or in a fitness center exercising different areas of our body.
In this article, we will talk about abs and a simple piece of equipment that can help you burn fat and strengthen your abdominal area. Although you can use many other gym equipment in California to build better abs such as ab swing, foam roller, ab gliders, etc., the most-widely used equipment is ab wheel roller. There are multiple reasons as to why this simple equipment is used so widely by fitness lovers all around the world for building abs. What are those reasons? Let’s find out.
 1. Works On Other Muscles Too - Several muscles get engaged when you use an ab wheel roller. Crunches are rather popular for exercising your core, but it only engages your rectus abdominus and obliques. But when you do a rollout using ab wheel roller, as much as 20 muscles get worked, which include deltoids, iliopsoas, obliques, lats, pecs, and of course, the rectus abdominus
2. Involves Key Ab Muscles Isometrically - We now know that an ab wheel roller works on a lot of muscles. But in addition to working on a lot of other muscles, it also engages our rectus abdominus and obliques isometrically, something which crunches cannot do. Ab wheel roller is able to contract the aforesaid muscles isometrically because while using this ab equipment, there is virtually no waist flexion
3. Betters Your Overall Fitness - Using ab wheel roller comes under strength training exercises. Using ab wheel roller will improve your stamina, keep your weight in check, bring down risks of injury by making your muscles stronger, and improve your balance
4. Helps Ease Your Back Pain - You will be surprised to know that ab wheel roller can help you find relief from back pain. Yes, you heard that right. Ab wheel roller is an equipment that strengthens your core. Nearly every action we perform, be it lower body or upper body, engages our core. If you suffer from back pain, strengthening your core will certainly help. Many studies have found that by focusing on their core muscles, people can ease their back pain
As you can see, using an ab wheel roller offers us amazing benefits. If interested, you can check out top-quality ab wheel rollers on some amazing websites online. Not just ab wheel rollers, you can also find many other exercise equipment such as pilates fitness bands, multifunctional push up board, resistance bands, and much more.
Author’s Bio: The author is a blogger. This article is about ab wheel roller and its benefits.

Playing House - Part Two
Tumblr media
Many thanks for the cover image to @awkward-haux!!!
Content Warnings: unnegotiated kink scenes, anxious / negative self-talk
Summary: The Reader gets used to her new role in Ivar and Ubbe’s apartment. Trading chores for free rent should be simple, right?
Part One here
You had thought the bathroom would be the most awkward part of this arrangement, but after the first deep-clean, that job isn’t really all that bad. It turns out that for you, laundry duty carries the most emotional impact. Sorting through Ivar and Ubbe’s used clothes brings an array of tantalizing scents wafting to your nose; they each favor a different cologne, and the occasional undershirt carries a deeper musk that hits you on an entirely primal level. Ubbe’s is spicy and distracting, making your head spin just a little as you imagine being tucked under his arm. Ivar’s is sweeter, hypnotizing, and the one time that you privately brought his shirt to your nose for a full-on huff, you felt like you had been drugged.
And after the clothes are clean, the folding, pressing, and hanging feels like an intimate, worshipful little ritual all of its own. You like to do it when they’re not home, and you can be alone with your little domestic fantasy. It feels like much more of an invasion to be opening drawers and going into their closets to put things away while they’re around, anyway.
Plus, the first time you brought a fresh, fluffy laundry basket back up to the apartment, so you could fold it in front of the TV, Ivar had watched you like a hawk. He just could not stop giving you increasingly-specific instructions. It warmed your chest and set your teeth rattling in equal measure.
“Long-ways, then in thirds.”
While you get a submissive little thrill every time he tells you what to do, at this point his barrage of critique starts to make your throat thicken with the familiar anxiety about not being able to please.
“Crisper, Y/N. Smooth it out with your hand before you make the fold.”
Ubbe growls a warning sound from his end of the couch. He seems to need to remind Ivar at least once a day to go easier on you.
You hear Ivar catch his breath, holding something back. When he speaks again, his tone is softer. “I just really like the way Marie Kondo does it.”
Your eyes widen as you whip your head and look up at the boys sprawled across the couch. “Wait. You guys can’t be bothered to lift a finger to take care of anything, and you watch a cleaning show?!”
“I like a tidy house,” Ivar sniffs, unapologetic in his sheer hypocrisy. “And I like the way she organizes.”
Something tugs at your memory. You’ve seen some of her videos before. “Isn’t she the one who says you need to like, convey your affection for the clothes while you smooth them out with your hands?” Your neck starts to tingle as you connect this thought with the associations that the boys’ laundry had already started to have in your mind.
Ivar’s eyes sparkle as he holds your gaze, as if he can tell exactly what you’re thinking. “Yes. And I want to see you doing just that. With every piece.”
Ubbe groans.
You smile a little at how protective he tries to be, even if he’s missing the point. “It’s all right, Ubbe,” you say primly. “They’re Ivar’s clothes, I’ll do them however he wants.”
“Well, you don’t have to be that obsessive with mine. Just having them clean in the basket is good enough for me.”
You shake your head. “I wouldn’t leave them to get wrinkled like that.”
You finished folding Ivar’s clothes in silence that night, your nerve endings sparkling like you were doing something sexual in front of him the entire time. You kept the movements of your hands slow, graceful, and you took your time spreading each piece of fabric, knowing he knew you were imagining his chest under every shirt, wondering about the usual occupant of each pair of boxers… While it was an experience you often find yourself replaying in your mind now, you still have never quite overcome embarrassment enough to do it in front of him again.
 * * *
 Ubbe liked to paint himself as easier to live with than Ivar, but as everyone got more comfortable together in the apartment, that was not necessarily the truth. While Ivar used your services to kickstart himself into reorganizing all of his possessions, and then actually started to pick up after himself whenever he thought you weren’t looking, Ubbe was much more prone to leave everything lying around all over the place. Towels migrated out of both kitchen and bathroom, and were left crumpled wherever he was standing once his hands were dry. He wouldn’t always ask you to cook for him like Ivar would, but he’d leave the kitchen covered in spills and dirty dishes after whipping up whatever snack he’d just been craving.
Your freshest example of this aggravation comes unexpectedly as you’re reading on the couch, alone. Ubbe busts through the front door, hair plastered to his scalp from the sweat that darkens the top half of his sleeveless shirt. His gym bag drops. He acknowledges you with a quick nod before starting to strip right there, exposing shiny washboard abs and glistening curls of hair in the center of his chest.
The shirt, of course, lands right in the middle of the living room. He kicks his sneakers vaguely in the direction of the shoe rack and flings white socks almost as far as the kitchen in his haste to get them off. You hold your breath, knowing his shorts have to be coming off next. He’s already moving past you though, gunning for the shower, and you only feel a little guilty about turning your head to watch the big muscles of his back ripple as he drops his shorts right there in the hallway.
The sight he revealed, boxer briefs clinging to his sculpted ass, is going to stay with you for a while. One thumb hooks into his waistband, but he rounds the corner into the bathroom before you can see anything more than a sharply-contrasted tan line at the top of his hip.
You finish reading your chapter before you stand and start scooping up the trail of damp clothes Ubbe has left along the floor. You hear the shower stop after you dump them in the hamper just around the corner in his bedroom. You’re retreating to your own room when you hear Ubbe call out.
“Hey, Y/N, can you find me a towel?”
“Shit!” you exclaim. “I forgot I hadn’t put those back yet!”
“No worries,” you hear him say as you zoom toward the basket of unfolded towels you left behind the couch.
You grab one and push through the bathroom door with it. “I really should have—” the self-flagellating response dies on your lips at the sight that greets you. You had expected Ubbe to wait for you behind the shower curtain, but he’s standing right there in the open, dripping onto the tile floor without anything to cover him at all.
Rivulets of water are darkening the hair on his lower half, making it cling to the golden skin of his thighs and the paler areas usually hidden from the sun… You just kind of freeze. Ubbe takes the towel from your hands with a throaty chuckle, and uses it not to cover his body, but only his head, scrubbing first at his hair. The brisk movements make the impressive cock hanging between his legs bounce just a little on its bed of curls. You’re pretty sure you see it starting to swell.
“I’m so sorry,” you force your lips to say, your feet trying to back you out the door while your eyes don’t seem to be able to peel away from the athletic body on display before you. Tight lines of muscle definition extend up from his growing manhood, drawing the eye up the wide ‘v’ of Ubbe’s developed lats and along the bulging biceps and triceps working that towel through his hair.
He wipes down his face, revealing pale blue eyes that lock onto your own. His knowing smile says everything, but you have no idea what to say or do next.
“Mmm,” he rumbles, “worth it. This towel is still warm.” He spreads it over his chest, still doing nothing to protect his modesty. “You just standing there, or are you gonna give me a rub-down?”
“I….” It doesn’t seem like your mouth, or your feet, or your arms work, and you continue to gape at him like a fish.
“Relax,” Ubbe smiles, finally wrapping that towel around his waist, “I was only joking.” His brows pinch in concern as he rubs at the back of his neck. “Sorry if that was in poor taste.”
Damnit, now your awkwardness has made this awkward for him too. “N-no, it’s… I’m just going to… go, now.” You feel your face twist into something halfway between two different facial expressions, and finally you regain enough control over your muscles to make a break for it.
 * * *
 Overall, you feel like this arrangement has been going really well. Without any job to head off to, it’s pretty easy to fit all the chores into the free hours you have between classes, study sessions, and sleep. You’re warmed with pride as you move through the apartment each day, wiping things down and tidying up the clutter. And the boys make sure you feel valued for your work, each in their own way. One time last week you actually found Ivar cleaning up after himself, picking up his cereal bowl from the place at the table that used to always be encrusted with old milk spots before you came around. He froze when he noticed you caught him, and very deliberately spilled a few drops from the bowl while staring into your eyes like an arrogant housecat. It was rude, but somehow endearing. Like he couldn’t have you thinking you were starting to change him.
Your groove falls apart during Finals week. Between twelve-page papers and all-night cramming sessions at the library, you don’t even notice the way dishes start piling up in the sink. Ubbe’s discarded linens stay wherever they dropped, and Ivar’s milk splashes congeal once again on the kitchen table. You come home exhausted after your last exam, your brain blocking out the row of empty beer cans and dirty plates cluttering up the coffee table in front of Ubbe where he lays on the couch.
His finals must be done too; the boy is sprawled out shirtless across the cushions, the TV remote nestled in his hand.
“So are you like, graduated now?” you ask him as you plop onto the couch beside him. A little sigh escapes you as your muscles welcome the reprieve from gravity. You think you might sleep for about a week straight now that Finals are finally over.
Ubbe’s smile is lazy and proud. “Yeah, basically. Still have to do that ceremony and shit, but all my classes are done and I’m pretty sure I passed them.”
“Well, congratulations, man.” Your eye follows Ubbe’s left hand, idly scratching at his chest hair. “Victory day means no shirt day, huh?” you tease.
Ubbe’s eyes are locked on the figures moving on the TV screen. “Actually, there’s no clean shirts left.”
He didn’t say it in a mean way, but it still hits you like a brick to the gut. You had been aware you were choosing to let some things go this week, but Ubbe’s laundry had entirely slipped your mind. A wave of anxiety threatens to steal your breath, as your brain tells you this is a pretty major fuck-up. And if you forgot this, what else might have slipped through the cracks? “Oh my gosh, I’m so sorry!” You propel your exhausted body up to your feet. “I’ll go start your laundry right now!”
Ubbe’s hand is around your forearm before you can take a step away from the couch. “Wait.” You turned to him, and he inspects your face carefully. “Don’t get worked up about it, Y/N. I don’t really mind.”
You try to shake him off, pressing your lips together to hide how upset you feel. Tears are starting to prickle hot behind your eyes. “It’s my actual job, Ubbe. I’ll do it now. I can’t believe I forgot.” Your voice cracks somewhere in that last sentence.
Ubbe hears it, and shakes his head with calm authority. “No.” He tugs at your arm. “You deserve a break after this week, just like the rest of us. You’re sitting back down right here with me.”
You force a weak smile, even though the impending tears are threatening to cascade over your cheeks now. You let him pull you down to the couch.
“Stay here, I’m getting you a beer.”
You try to protest that you can get it yourself, but he holds you down onto the seat with a friendly-yet-firm smile before heading into the kitchen himself.
You let yourself cry just a little while he’s not looking. A distant voice from the back of your head is saying that you’re overreacting, but you can’t stop the ugly wave of shame and worry that you’re caught up in now. You fucked up. You had one job. How hard is it to keep house? Every damned human on this planet has chores, it should have been easy to keep up.
You barely notice Ubbe’s return until he presses a cold bottle into your hand and settles his body into the cushion. He sits down so close that his thigh presses into yours, and he starts rubbing your back too. “Hey,” he says softly. “What’s going on.”
“I just don’t want to let you guys down.”
Ubbe’s hand presses a little harder. “Y/N. You do such a great job around here, I promise. I can’t believe how nice you’ve been able to keep everything.”
You bark a bitter laugh, eyeing the garbage strewn across the coffee table in front of you. “Other than this week.”
“Yes, other than this week, the busiest, most stressful week of the term. Cut yourself some slack. You need to let yourself relax, and be human, too. The place doesn’t have to be spotless every time we get home. While I appreciate the aesthetic, this isn’t the 50’s and you’re not our housewife.”
You sip from your beer and then cling to the bottle with both hands, trying to make yourself believe what Ubbe just said. Also trying not to get distracted by the mental image of twirling through the house in a full skirt and kissing Ubbe and Ivar each on the cheek as you send them off to work in some retro domestic fantasy. “I just want to do a good job for you, and hold up my end of the bargain. I don’t want you to think I’m gonna start slacking and not pull my weight.”
Ubbe sighs. He shifts toward you and puts both hands on your shoulders, attempting to loosen them with a little squeezing massage. “I was worried this would happen when Ivar came up with this idea. Don’t treat yourself like you’re our slave. That can’t be fun.”
A half smile tugs at your lips. “Well, sometimes it’s a little fun?”
Ubbe doesn’t say anything to that. You think maybe he just doesn’t get it. He squeezes the tops of your shoulders more firmly, then starts pressing his palms down your back. It’s a few minutes before anyone speaks again. “I think the problem here is that you feel like you live at your job, right? So it’s hard to figure out when it’s ok to just stop, or leave something undone.”
You nod. “Yeah, it’s like every time I’m home, I wonder if you guys think I should be doing something.”
“That’s no way to live.” His hands travel up to your neck, pinching more carefully until he finds just the right spots.
You groan a little and lean back toward him.
“What if… we made up a schedule for you. Set the expectations a little more clear, so you don’t feel like you need to do anything too often, and so you can’t” –he squeezes around the base of your skull in a way that makes your eyes roll into your head—“imagine that we want more from you than what it says.”
“Did anyone ever tell you that you give a really good massage?” you interject. Between the rush of emotion that you’re finally coming down from, and the soothing kneading of his hands, your voice comes out sounding liquid and woozy.
Ubbe chuckles behind you. “Maybe I’ve heard that once or twice.” His hands slide down your back. “But what do you think? Would something like that help you feel like you’re allowed to get time off, too?”
You can’t help focusing on the crumbs scattered over the table in front of you. Your hands still twitch with the urge to give in to the shame and go on a frenzy of manic, exhausted cleaning until everything looks perfect for them again. So you could feel proud once more. So you could feel Good. “Maybe,” you say softly, though your tone is as drawn as the expression on your face.
Ivar busts in the front door, slowing his pace as he takes in your slumped posture on the couch next to his brother. “What’s going on?” he asks sharply.
“Don’t start with her, Ivar, not tonight.” Ubbe’s hands curl over your shoulders, squeezing more briskly. “She’s having a bad day. She’s been pushing herself too hard, don’t you think?”
“It’s Finals, we all have,” Ivar answers, studying your face intently. You wonder if your eyes are still puffy from the tears you let loose a little earlier.
“Yeah, but she’s worried she let us down with the chores this week. It’s really getting to her. Tell her she does a great job keeping house for us, but it’s not necessary to keep things quite so perfect.”
The concern in Ivar’s bright eyes pierces you. “Why did you not tell me you were feeling this way?” he demands.
A bitter laugh barks out of you. “I didn’t really realize I was, until it hit me just now.”
He swings himself a step closer, looking down from his full height and trying to take charge of the situation so similarly to how Ubbe did just a little earlier. You wonder if their father handles things the same way, or if they get it from somewhere else. “Listen to me, Y/N. I love what you have done around here, but you don’t have to drive yourself mad trying to keep everything spotless. You have to live your own life, too.” He glances at Ubbe, and there must be something for him to read on his brother’s face because he takes a breath and keeps going. “I know I take things too far sometimes. I like to tease, and maybe this game wasn’t as fun for you as it was for me.”
You shake your head, worried that your breakdown was about to ruin the very vibe that was making all this worth it to you. “It’s not that—”
Ivar cuts you off. “You have to be honest with me, and tell me when enough’s enough. Can you do that?”
You nod. Ubbe’s palms smooth over your entire back in big, soothing strokes.
“Good.” Ivar looks around the place, then nods like he’s come to a conclusion. “That’s settled, then. No work for you tonight, Y/N. The place was much messier than this before you moved in, and we tolerated that just fine. Let’s get a pizza. And tomorrow, after my last exam, we’ll throw a party. Once the place is thoroughly trashed, we’ll all help clean it up.”
After the pizza’s gone you crawl into bed early, reassured but kind of exhaustedly fuzzy and ready to crash. Ivar comes in before you turn the light out, laptop under one arm. “Scoot over,” he says, then lays on your bed alongside you. “You have to watch this show with me, it’s so dope. I just binged like the entire thing last week.”
He doesn’t say anything else, but you’re sure this is another way he’s trying to make you feel better. And when he lays the laptop over your hips so he can slide himself under the blankets next to you, it’s so easy to pretend that you’re his girlfriend that you almost tear up again. You hold it together because he keeps turning to look at your face every time his favorite parts come up, wanting to see your reactions. You wonder at first if he’s using this to try to make a move on you, but he seems genuinely interested in just sharing his love of this show with you.
You’re enjoying the story, really you are, but sleep starts to drag your eyelids down somewhere into the third episode. At first Ivar nudges you awake with playful bumps of his shoulder when he notices, but eventually he relents and shuts down the computer screen. He tucks the blanket in around you after he slides out from under it. “Sleep well, little one,” he croons, probably half-sarcastically, then turns off your light on his way out.
* * *
 Ivar takes a long drag from his cigarette, blowing the smoke out in a long jet before responding. “That’s a good point, Y/N. I never thought about it that way.” He really is quite cool to hang out with when you’re alone with him. If he’s not showing off and trying to command the attention of a whole room, he actually listens, and can sometimes even sound like he cares.
You take another puff from your own smoke. It’s a warm Tuesday afternoon, one of the first days that feels like summer, and Ubbe hasn’t gotten home from his internship yet. You and Ivar are sitting in the little garden out behind the apartment building, in two of the communal lawn chairs. Earlier, he had scowled when you caught him with a cig on his lips and a lighter in his hands upstairs on the couch. Everyone had agreed last week that the apartment would feel much fresher, and more pleasant, if nobody smoked indoors anymore.
He had scowled, but he had gathered up his shit and made for the door. It was one of the few changes you’d made around the place that directly impacted his behavior, and you still feel a little insecure about how he’ll take it. So you had grabbed two beers and resolved to keep him company out back while he gets used to the new system.
You’re never sure where you stand with Ivar, but today the conversation is flowing so easily that you let your beer get warm in your hand while he chain-smokes and the two of you trade ideas, discovering just how well your perspectives about the world mesh together.
There’s no doubt that the heat of summer is finally here. Only the regular gusting of a cool breeze is saving you, bringing with it the scent of freshly-cut grass and the feeling that nothing matters but right now. Or is it Ivar doing that to your mood? His rare openness and candor, that crooked smile is lighting you up from the inside out, forcing your face to reflect his.
He’s holding your eyes, on the tail end of one of those grins, as he wraps his lips around his bottle and takes a sip. Something shifts in his expression as he swallows the beer. “Y/N,” he says softly, tone going serious. His eyes darken as his lips curl playfully. “You’ve let my beer get warm.”
You crease your brows, confused. “We have been out here a long time, haven’t we.”
He shakes his head, clucking his tongue in exaggerated disappointment but refusing to release your eyes. “You’ve failed me, Y/N. A good thrall would anticipate my every need.”
He’s finally doing it again. A shiver runs through you, the excitement of what kinky things you hope he’s implying whipping against your spine. It pushes a nervous laugh from your throat. “I can’t control how hot it is out here.”
Ivar cocks his head to the side, condescension under his lifting brow. He wiggles his bottle.
“…Should I get you a new one?”
A beatific smile spreads across his features; he seems pleased with your offer. “That would be wise.”
You notice your fingers shaking just a little as you set the butt of your almost-finished cigarette into the ashtray. You like when Ivar makes you feel this way; the whole world narrows down. You peel your sweaty thighs off the cheap lawn chair and rise, almost regretting your choice to wear such skimpy shorts. But surely you’d be dying in the heat out here in long pants. And Ivar seems to like looking at your thighs. You wonder if he’s leering at you now, while you scamper back into the apartment, but you don’t dare to look over your shoulder at him.
Luckily, you had had the foresight to chuck a few of the warm bottles you had brought home today right into the freezer, assuming that Lothbrok appetites were sure to run too quickly through the short supply left in the fridge. The brown glass is frosty and perfect as you take them out now. These will be sure to return you to Ivar’s favor in this silly, contrived, tantalizing game.
When you come back outside, Ivar is gazing across the garden, sucking softly at the last of your cigarette. Has he pulled your chair closer to his, or did you just imagine that part?
He says nothing as you come around to resume your seat; he just watches you, with an intensity that burns hotter than the sun scorching the plants just outside the line of shade you’re sheltering under. You hand Ivar a bottle so cold that it has already started to accumulate moisture in the three seconds it’s been outside.
He takes a sip after you sit, and makes a pleased noise of appreciation. “Much better.”
You get one swallow of frosty beverage down your own throat before Ivar speaks again.
“Now come here.”
You’re already sitting next to him. His wide hand gestures to the space directly in front of his own chair. Your mouth goes dry; you put your bottle down anyway. There is no question but to do what Ivar asks.
His eyes glitter, impossibly large in his handsome face, as he watches you come to your feet and stand before him. You can’t seem to read his intention and it’s hard not to flinch when his arm moves. “You still need a lesson.” His gaze moves to the beer bottle in his hand, and so yours does too, attention catching on the drips of condensation on the glass.
He presses that coldness directly against your thigh, other hand coming to your hip to hold you steady when you inevitably squirm.
“This is how cold I like my drinks. Do you feel that?” He rolls the bottle toward your inner thigh, the contrast with the ambient air shocking each nerve ending in turn.
You suppress a squeal when the icy glass presses between both legs, but you feel the clench of his fingers around your hip and try to stay still for him. The cold almost burns, and your body’s not sure how to handle it if retreat is not an option.
Ivar’s face is lit with a glee that looks more than a little bit demonic. His eyes travel up your body. “On your knees.” His voice remains calm and even.
Arousal blooms, relaxing your joints as you drop to comply. This may look more like bullying than foreplay to anyone else, but this is hotter than any of the shy kisses or sleazy groping that other boys have tried on you in the past. Ivar threads his free hand around the back of your head, under your hair. “You didn’t answer me.” He presses the bottle against the side of your neck, making sure the sudden freeze hits the most sensitive place behind your jaw. “Do you feel how cold that is?”
You force your body not to cringe; your answer rushes out on your overwhelmed exhale. “Yes, Ivar.”
“Do you understand what I expect, when I am drinking beer with you now?” He curls the bottle around toward the back of your neck, biting his lip at whatever change he sees in your face.
“Yes, Ivar.”
“Good.” He slides the bottle toward the front again, the base making contact with the top of your collarbone. “Before you serve me again, you can check the temperature like this” –he presses the bottle into your neck more firmly—“or, here” –he moves it down to the swell of your breast, above the v-neck of your shirt—“or, if you want, like this.” Swinging his grip to catch the neck of the bottle between his fingertips, he leans forward and presses the thickest part of it right between your bare thighs. “Remember how this feels,” he coaches, and you watch his full lips move as he speaks the words so close to your face. “If it’s not this cold next time, I’ll have to give you a more extensive lesson.”
A whimper escapes your throat, and you can’t pretend it’s only from the cold. After so much anticipation, for Ivar to finally be touching you like this, to be treating you in a way that is unmistakably sexual…
He leans back abruptly, removing the frosty bottle from your flesh and taking a smug swig out of it as he settles back into his chair. “Do you understand, Y/N?”
Every cell is vibrating inside your body as you gaze up at the dark look on his face. “Yes, Ivar.” You can’t wait until it’s time to serve Ivar again, so you can press the next bottle to your skin just exactly as he had instructed.
The sliding sound of the back door whooshes. “There you guys are,” Ubbe’s voice rings out, the sound of it shouldering into the space between you.
You rock back reflexively, but look to Ivar for instruction before moving further. He shakes his head with almost-imperceptible disappointment and nods for you to rise before Ubbe can wonder what exactly was going on out here.
Part 3.1 here

THE MUSCLES SONG (Learn in 3 Minutes!) 
LOL... It truly enlightens my day. I love it! 
Lyrics source: https://youtu.be/hY2fa6Q98-k
The skeletal muscle system is ready to contract, It’s there when you need to fight and also to react, You have around 640, but there’s no need to fear, We’ll cover all the main ones – from your front to your rear!
There’s the trapezius muscle, from your neck down your back, This muscle has three portions, so let us discuss that! Superior, middle, inferior – that is what they’re called! And around your shoulders, is where they are sprawled!
The deltoids top the shoulders, and each splits into three, Anterior, lateral, posterior fibers as you can see, These muscles help you lift your arms up into the air, So you can wave your arms around like you don’t even care.
The biceps is a flexor, made up of two sections, The short and the long heads, almost like reflexions. The triceps is an extensor, with three bits you can see, These are the lateral, long, and the medial heads actually.
