#girls can look at critters. as a treat.

6, Eris & Ikora

In the liminal space between Savathûn's carefully manicured gardens and the fetid swamps of the Disciple, a hunter and a warlock tread carefully through overgrowth, coattail and cloak drenched in the pulp of mud and detritus underfoot. Despite the sticky, unstable footing, Eris moves with lightness that Ikora has not seen since before the Hellmouth.

She realizes part of it is lack of opportunity. In the years since Eris' return they've had precious little opportunity to do Hidden field work together, Ikora usually too busy with Vanguard duties and Eris preoccupied with territory she alone could tread. To say nothing of the ever-present threat to operational security having both spymaster and spy on a mission together.

There's no risk presently, Ikora supposes, with Savathûn's body locked away and Rhulk dead at the hands of the Guardians. Roiling unease threatens to creep into her chest as she considers the power vacuum they've all had a hand in opening, but right now there is calm. Thick, pungent air and flowers unseen by any human eyes and the din of wildlife never before heard. Somewhere there is a sword, but it does not point at them today, so it's no coincidence that Eris walks with ease and Ikora can allow herself a moment to envision a world where the gift of infinite life may be turned toward matters of scholarship, not survival.

They shelter from the unrelenting light of the Throne World's three suns under a gnarled tree, Ikora sitting cross-legged on the carpet of brilliant green moss while her companion kneels to study a bug. Eris has no official training in life sciences but is a biologist insofar as learning to live among the hive and with a part-hive body, and in this case Ikora finds her hands-on knowledge more valuable than any certification. She can read between lines and see between worlds and for that reason is the best equipped to determine whether the unnamed creatures who fly and slither and creep through the wetlands traveled with the Hive from distant star systems, were invented whole-cloth from the Witch's imagination, or any number of more far-fetched possibilities posed by Hidden scientists.

They talk about similar morphologies among the insects here and on the Dreadnaught, and passing comparisons between the gargantuan serpents who writhe in the murky depths and the leviathans of Titan. Argue about the likelihood that Savathûn could manage to create life (let alone in such intricate variety) from nothingness, and what implications that would have for the understanding of the Ascendant Plane and its interactions with the material universe. The debate is spirited enough to be exciting but has enough levity to offer a welcome respite from the high-pressure work they're both accustomed to. Ikora finds herself smiling and is pleased to see the corners of Eris' lips upturned ever so slightly as they toss ideas back-and-forth, refuting and defending and conceding points.

It isn't unusual for Ikora to not quite see eye-to-eye with Eris. It's never strained their relationship, at least not seriously, but there's always been a sense that her warlock meticulousness and role as theoretician puts her forever slightly out of sync with Eris and her hunter-restless need to experience firsthand, to try first and question later. In this moment, she feels they've found a shared frequency, and more than the hazy sunlight flitting through the canopy warms her.

user27: UNLESS! this is all part of the plan? what if lando set her up with a messy guy like carlos so he can be the shoulder to cry on and that's how he slides in?

"SMILLING CRITTERS ORPHANAGE"

is an AU where the smiling critters take a more anthro form and work on an orphanage inspired by "The Promised Neverland" 1 arc.

KEEP IN MIND SOME THINGS MAY CHANGE AFTER CHAPTER 3 RELEASE!

I do not have a written plot but I have some info about the AU!

- Their symbols are acessories given by CatNap, but they aren't simple acessories! They sometimes can let out a smoke that makes them go hysterical and violent. They also can shine and change colors (Shine when they are having huge fellings, lose color when they feel empty, and shine a red light when they are going hysterical)

- The Orphanage is owned by DogDay Family, and currently owned by DogDay himself, but everyone knows that CatNap is the one in charge.

- DogDay family was very angst CatNap work on the orphanage, DogDay lied that CatNap was fired bc of it.

- There is other workers on the Orphanage, but the smilling critters one are the people who takes part of the dark part of the orphanage where experiments happen.

[hiwelcometothemonstersancturary]

order in which the Smiling Critters refer to Angel as their parent, in my save everyone AU:

Dogday, by accident, while everyone is still inside. He's so embarassed by it, poor boy;

Bobby. After her rescue she hears Poppy referring to Angel as mother and goes "🥺 mom????????", and Angel just has to go with it because the majority of the toys are calling them either mom or dad by this point;

Craftycorn is next! She's very shy, VERY quietly asking Angel if she can call them dad because they helped her feel safe enough to sleep. After that she's SO HAPPY about finally having someone to take care of her!

After this, Dogday uses both mom and dad for Angel, without feeling embarrassed anymore:

Hoppy. Girlie is bedridden for the first month and Angel is always there for her, she's already all "I wish I could call them dad without it being weird" until she hears Dogday saying it. She's VERY protective of Angel and that becomes a bit worse because "THAT'S MY PARENT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT".

Kickin is all like "I appreciate the fact you're taking care of me but like Im independent, I lived through things you can only dream off, Im not calling you dad like Im a kid" and then 3 weeks of accidentally using both mom and dad for Angel later he's crying his eyes out as he finally just. Stops trying to play tough guy because he's now in a safe environment and can be vulnerable and safe.

Bubba doesn't see Angel as an actual parental figure until, much like Kickin, he realizes he's in a safe environment and Angel is his caretaker regardless of what may happen. Bubba is weirded out for some time because he's so used to never having someone looking out for him, and then Angel gently tells him to slow things down because he just had a burn out and needs to treat his mind because yes, he is traumatized, and Bubba. Straight up asks if they see him as not just a "kid" but their kid. And its complicated, but Angel agrees with the idea, and then Bubba warms up to the idea and stops calling them "sir/ma'am" and goes with "father/mother".

Picky is desperate to call Angel mom since day 1, but she feels SO guilty for seeing them like that because all the other critters are basically their kid, and who's Picky to interfere after she tried to eat some of them? And, okay, they accepted her apologies and they want to be her friends again, but should she insert herself into the little family just like that? Its Bubba who finally convinces her that she's not an intruder, and then she's all "mom, do you want to see how the garden is doing?" and is always so happy when Angel doesn't correct her.

Catnap. He has 13 layers of unresolved trauma and religious guilt, and for him to stop viewing Angel as his savior but as the only human he can trust Picky is already trying out baking a pie with Mommy Long Legs to celebrate Mother's Day with Angel. His relationship with the Prototype getting better and him finally calling him Father, alongside Dogday, Crafty and Bobby helping him stop feeling so guilty all the time is what helps the most, but he still views Angel as better than human because what else could forgive him? But when his relationship with Hoppy starts improving is when he, very hesitantly, starts thinking about calling Angel "Mother" (he already has a dad). When he finally tries that for the first time Angel lowkey is this close to crying, but they just give him a big hug. Catnap is also close to crying because he thinks he made a mistake at first, but Angel helps calm him down.

Unrelated but one time one of Angel's friends came over to visit and heard Catnap calling them "mother", and then later asked Angel if they had anything to do with Catnap's "father", because last thing they knew Catnap was having a catholic moment involving Angel and would NEVER think of them as a parent, right????? Angel's response was a simple "I know my family is weird but what the fuck, girl!". They still laugh about it to this day.

Also:

Dogday, Bobby, Crafty, Hoppy and Bubba use both mom and dad for Angel;

Kickin has a preference for calling them dad;

Picky has a preference for calling them mom;

Catnap refers to Angel EXCLUSIVELY as mom in order to avoid confusion.

Prototype refers to Angel as "the mother/father", "the caretaker" and "the parent", even when talking to the other toys. "Call the parent for that" is something he frequently says. For Catnap he says "call your mother".

More Band!Au Sinclair HCs that no one asked for:

Au belongs to: @arkunder

Bo and Lester had a drinking contest on stage. Vincent was so disappointed.

They play rock-paper-scissors if one of them has to do an interview.

Ask Vincent about his hidden goldfish snacks! He has them hidden everywhere. He’ll just pull a little bag out of nowhere sometimes.

Bo is, indeed, in therapy. Not for drinking but for mental health.

They once live streamed Bo and Vincent playing chess for a charity event. They are both really good at playing.

Lester went off stage for a moment and came back with nachos. He didn’t play the drums for a set, so the twins did the heavy lifting.

The three brothers had the world’s hottest soup to see who can eat more. No one was surprised when Lester won.

They actually love playing catch! They have baseball gloves and a ball they bring. Before a show, they play catch and chill.

Vincent has a base that looks like a mermaid tail.

They went to a nursing home and played for an elder fan. She was 97 year old and loved heavy metal music. She died a few days after later. In honor of her, Vickey wrote a song and named it after her: “Lilith”.

One time, someone passed a fiddle to the stage and Bo took it. He opened up the case and started tearing into it. The crowd went nuts.

They have sibling tattoos. Bo has a sun, Vincent has a moon, and Lester has a star. It’s on their back.

Bo once sung in French during a song out of boredom. The girls and the gays went nuts.

Vincent likes smoking lavender cigarettes.

A kid placed a flower crown on Lester’s head. He nearly cried.

During a meet and greet at a convention, Bo held a crying baby and calmed them down to let the staff member take a little break.

Whenever they go to award shows, Bo wears his black suit and tie; Vincent wears a three piece suit with a Vincent von Gough themed tie; and Lester is in his finest blue jeans, shiny cowboy boots, a nice plaid, and wears his Luisiana belt buckle.

During an outside show, Lester came on stage with an opossum in his arms. Where did it come from? No one knows.

Whenever Vincent goes out to do charity work and Bo comes with him, the twins like to have fun! They’ll color and play with the kids, let them draw on their arms, and put things in their hair. At the end of the day, they do a group photo with everyone they spent time with and hang the photo in the bus. Vincent puts one in his base case.

Bo has an emotional support stuffie named Snuffles. It’s an alligator.

Vincent stopped the show and hopped off stage. Someone brought their cat and he wanted to pet it.

Speaking of cats, whenever they do an outdoor show, Vincent found a kitten stuck in the sound system under the stage. He crawled under the stage and brought them out. Shes named Soundwave and is loved by Jonesy and the fans.

Bo loves playing the piano before the show starts. He’ll come out in his heavy metal outfit and sits next to the keyboard and play classical music like Mozart.

On Saturdays during the summer, they take the day to go to farmer markets and pop-up sales in the little towns by the city. They wear ‘disguises’ when they go. Some people are able to figure them out, some don’t.

When Louisiana flooded, the boys went back home and helped cleaned up the town (I’m assuming Ambrose is still an alive town). Bo helps rebuild houses and sheds, Lester helps cleaning the mud and the muck along with returning any loose critters to the DNR for recovery, and Vincent cooks d and pass out food at a crisis center. If they have to, they’ll give blood.

SIDE NOTE:

Whenever they go home to Ambrose, everyone treats them normal as if they’re not famous. It gives them some space to breathe.

They don’t stay for too long, maybe a weekend or a week. If they stay longer, Bo is down at the garage, Vincent is in the art and hobby store, and Lester cleans up the roads and road kill. They also take this time to help their next door neighbor, Mr. and Mrs. Lane. They’re like grandparents to them.

They live in their own house while Trudy and their father are in the house from the movie. Because Trudy doesn’t approve of them doing this, she doesn’t visit them, and Victor ignores them.

Meet my AU Smiling Critters: New Life

It's actually my AU crossover (Smiling Critters + Danny Phantom)

Now let me explain about what is it about..ehem..

So

In my AU Smiling Critters: New Life is about:

Dogday was 12 years old at the time, well, he was still little like Varvara (Angel “as he calls her now”), but she was 3 years older than him, he then promised her as a child that when he grew up, he would find her and then will already propose to meet. She, of course, thought that this might not happen, she said that we’ll see...whether we can see each other or not..

a week later, the girl moved to another city because her parents quarreled and her mother took her to a quiet town where she could find normal friends, since her mother did not approve of some kind of dog being friends with her, and her father The girls were not against her friendship with him and others.

The next week DogDay came to the house where she used to live, he wanted to call her, but her father came out instead and said that she moved to the city ahead of time... and all because of this quarrel, to be honest, he was upset that Varvara moved to another city without even saying goodbye.

Some time passes, DogDay did not forget about her and when he was a little older he noticed that CatNap had become somehow strange, CatNap began to look at people as if he was not happy with them, he became very silent and always says “The prototype is our god ...he must be worshiped...and whoever rejects him...will be punished." The smiling friends then also noticed this, one of them, of course, did not listen to him like the others, and after that... they began to disappear every day. DogDay noticed how his friends were slowly disappearing, he realized that something was wrong... and when he found out what happened to them... and as it turned out, Catnap was killing them in his house.

Having seen the terrible picture, DogDay then began to be afraid of him, without having time to say a word, he felt the soporific red smoke and for that he fell asleep. CatNap didn’t kill him, but simply took him to his basement to tie him up there. But The next week DogDay tried to free himself from those ropes, and he did it, he also tried to get out of this place and find someone who will help him. So he did escaped from the window (in the basement was the window) and goes to Varvara's father to ask him for help, so Varvara's father saw him in very bad state and he treat his wounds..and after that he called the police and explained everything about what happened in CatNap's house. When the police arrived at the address where CatNap lived, they saw a terrible picture, but they did not find the killer himself because he fled the crime scene.

When 2-3 weeks passed after the murder of DogDay's friends, he was very tired, broken and very hungry, since he had not eaten anything since what happened, but he only ate food little by little. Varvara’s father temporarily sheltered DogDay so that he could receive treatment, if DogDay’s parents see this, they can definitely start moving to another city

DogDay grew up and CatNap disappeared somewhere. In one day Varvara's father talked to DogDay about he already grown up and he should move to the Amity park to find his daughter and live with her, he did accepted him when DogDay was a teenage boy who was in love with his angel.

So Varvara's father explained about the city and about how dangerous with paranormal activity this city is, DogDay get it so in that day Varvara's father bought for him a train ticket to go there. In two days DogDay packed his stuff and moved to this city to find his angel.

+ When he arrives he thought "I can't appear to her like this...I need to practice...or I’ll walk around like this in a terrible state.." DogDay decided to stay at a hotel where there was a gym, and so another month passed.

When he was completely ready, he decided to change his outer clothes. When he was ready, he collected his things from the hotel again and left there. And so begins DogDay's future in Amity Park.

His design and his form right now:

CatNap's design:

The massive bug chewed, pleased with its treat, for pikmin was its favorite snack. The girl stood frozen as she watched. The Pests in her hands had too fallen silent, cold with fear, leaving nothing but the crunching of their friend to be heard. With an audible gulp the Giant opened its eyes that had been closed with pure pleasure of its meal and look down at the red critter in her hand.

She quickly stepped back and offered the whimpering little treat to the monster who seemed beyond happy to be fed, taking it into its mouth with a lap of its massive tongue. Once more its eyes glistened with joy as it munched on the tiny tasty morsel and swallowed it down. It was clear the beast was motivated greatly by food as its eyes landed on the last bitty blue being that she held upside down by its legs.

The beast licked at the last pikmin that dangled and cried in her grasp. The mother smiled as she placed a hand on the round warm nose, stroking it. She didn't hand over the last treat, not yet. For the first time in months, a glimmer of hope stood before her and she wasn't going to let it pass her by.

LISTEN LISTEN okokokok this isn't a request I just- HRBXJDHCJD I need to get this out omg

So we know that in the Arcane universe there are nonhuman species. Imagine Sev's girl being a cat hybrid. IMAGINE BEING SEV'S CUTE LITTLE KITTY GF

Imagine her wanting to see if you're really like a cat, testing with laser pointers, string, catnip, etc etc and can either go one of two ways. Either you're confused asf cause "Sevika I'm not a house cat" (she'd believe that's a lie). Or, it can go her way, and you can chase the toys and treat catnip like crack.

The way Sevika's hands wouldn't leave your body. One, because she loves you to death and two, cause she loves to feel your soft fur. Lightly plays with your ears and smiles when they twitch. Gives teasing little tugs at your tail when she's feeling rather playful. And let's not forget how she'd be more than happy to help you every 2-3 weeks, wink wink.

OK SORRY I JUST NEEDED TO GET THAT OUT I'm literally obsessed with Sevika, she's my favorite scary lady. Anyway thanks for reading, hope you have a wonderful day/night, and may we pledge to Sevika with our hands over our hearts and our pussies

And out it goes~ think your excitement electrocuted me and rightfully so. These are interesting and have the feels of a chitchat which I'll willingly prolong and dump some thoughts.

A hybrid girl stretching about leisurely on Sevika's lap is an image too vivid to call new (?) A pairing of can't-shake familiarity that just looks right. Pointy ears, nails and, at your hindmost, a flexible, fluffy tail. Gently swishing when relaxed, taps restlessly disgruntled and LOUD-ly.

Cat hybrids. A spirited critter that holds themselves to standards high though at times unpredictable—gracious, but with many feats of hunting and leading their prey astray that, if to be domesticated and cared for, waters down to a unique provocative nature. 

I imagine her fascinated, eyeballing, as though a phenomenon otherworldly, your pupils narrow in suspense, or when your tail bends 's' -> 'z' to and fro as she playfully runs her index from your forehead to your nose. Boop!

Shape, cast. Qualities, possessed. So one can't help but wonder and, with Sevika's unending itch to get practical, run some tests. She approaches carrying to her chest shoelaces and a glowy fluorescent laser pointer, 'plucked from work'. You'd cross arms, bashfully ridicule her theory in its silliness—"Sevika I'm not a house cat!"—but then lark, jump, slide, chase, etc., at whatever she throws or waves; although curiosity bests Sev in a way, it also is a deep-rooted instinct found in cats.

As for catnip with girlfriend Sevika, she would occupy a small space in the same room, only for you to then occupy her—violent rolling in her lap, where she holds(steals*) the container up high serving as dangling carrots for your sloppy kisses, licking, biting around the neck, fingers, and even her hair(did you chew on it thinking it's catnip while delirious? Sevika says yes, tauntingly). Regardless of the botched trim and smeared slobber, she'll be the sole recipient of it all. Besides, someone has to tuck you in bed when you tap out from eating the herb to your heart's content. Regret of the day before is certain to permeate in your wake. Cue Sevika throwing proud smugs at you randomly throughout the next day, fingers skim over the marks as to highlight them when you so much as look her way, just to cause further fluster. You might even call this animal cruelty hehehehe. Sorry.

Absolutely endorsing par. 4, like she'd settle for just staring, baby will stroke an embrace over every strand to tuft on those ears and tail of yours. Pretty dusks and coral painted windows were a scene especially enjoyed indoors where, on a carpet's corner, lay your bodies slumped atop one another. One filing their claws, other interchanging her own to a different sharp-edged and back. Somewhere in an aimless banter, Sev's flesh hand lays hold on your tail, as it normally flails freely in the air. Twirls it around her arm over and over, plays fake mustache by horizontally spreading it under her nose, recoils to an embryo after biting it—she loves it when your sclera sheens, but dreads what it means, wisely so. Just ask the local wicked pets dealers, whose runaways found mucking up the yard never come back.

Maybe she uses the tail's outset to maneuver and reposition your back however she wants and........maybe you sweep your tail over her back. Like ever so many splinters caught on her skin, bare and humid, she begins to lurch. Now you gleefully reveal your canines, exploding in laughter after a short restraint, having mistakenly just given her every incentive she needed to scratch another itch she has been eager to since its earliest daydream—rhymes with pond edge but using only. Your. Tail.

I have to thank you for bringing the hybrids(and other manners of creatures) to my attention, almost forgot what immeasurable uniqueness they bring to the show if not for this. Wonderful day/night to you too ^^

[gotstabbedbyapen]

Can you make some Hephaestus and Artemis older brother - younger sister hc's.

And some Ares and Athena older brother and younger sister dynamic hc's

Sorry for the wait! I was distracted with other stuff, but now I'm back with this one.

I got a few headcanons for these two sibling duos, but there is a lot of explaining with it. So strap on!

Hephaestus and Artemis

1. They collaborated in the invention of bows and arrows.

AFAIK here are two versions of how Artemis and Apollo got their bows and arrows: either the twins invented it themselves, or Hephaestus and the elder Cyclops gifted it to them. I want to fuse both versions together.

Artemis and Apollo created the first model of a bow, probably a slingshot made of stretchy strings and a branch that they could use to take down birds and small critters.

When Zeus took the twins to Hephaestus and the Cyclops to get new weapons, little Artemis showed Hephaestus her "bow" and asked him if they could make her another one like this.

Hephaestus crouched down to take a look and said, "Hmm, this one looks neat, but it will need some improvise. Wanna help?" And little Artemis was like, "Yippee!!!"

2. Artemis did learn a thing or two from Hephaestus.

During their collaboration in making the bows, Hephaestus taught little Artemis a thing or two about building things.

Little Artemis then took what she learned from her big brother Hephaestus to build a small temple for her little brother Apollo. There is a myth about Artemis building Apollo's first temple out of feathers and honey or something. (I can't find the source, so please let me know if anyone does!)

When Hephaestus found out, he was super touched by the twins' love for each other and even sniffled a bit. He clapped little Apollo on his back and told him, "You got a good sister there. My brother would never do that for me."

Little Apollo also built a small temple out of the goat horns little Artemis collected in her hunt, so Apollo must have joined the architecture lessons, too.

3. Artemis felt really bad for Hephaestus when he was cheated on.

I don't think Artemis was present when Hephaestus caught Ares and Aphrodite sleeping together (not that I know of). She might not be interested in marriage, but she felt sorry for Hephaestus. The marriage isn't perfect for both of them, but Artemis is biased toward her big brother.

After the net incident and Hephaestus and Aphrodite divorcing, Artemis met up with him to comfort her big brother. Just them sitting in Hephaestus' forge as Artemis watched him crafting things and chit-chat a bit.

When Hephaestus started to date Aglaia, Artemis secretly stalked them to make sure the new goddess would treat big brother right (Hephaestus caught her every time XDDD). But Artemis eventually approved Aglaia and was glad their marriage turned out pretty good.

Ares and Athena

1. They fight for the title of the older sibling.

Although I prefer Athena being the older sister, I love to make the birth order ambiguous.

Athena is Zeus' daughter with his first wife, Metis, while Ares is his son with his last wife, Hera. Even if Athena was "born" later from Zeus' head, she is still the older one chronologically. Due to the messy "who was born first" paradox, Athena and Ares constantly squabble about who is the older one.

Whenever they are in a heated argument, Athena will scream, "I'm the older sibling. You listen to me!" And Ares just yelling nonsense to disagree with her.

2. Eileithyia and Hebe are the reasons they got along more.

They both have older sibling personalities: Athena is mature and is the voice of reason, and Ares is protective and outspoken. These qualities shine the most when it comes to taking care of their younger siblings, especially Eileithyia and Hebe.

Of course, Ares is closer to the girls than Athena, being their full brother, and will play with them whenever he is home from war. But Athena is the closest to a role model who taught the girls how to be women. Ares knows Athena has a secret soft spot for his sisters, so he will bring them out as a playful bargain with her ("Let me have the last cheese, or I'll take the girls away forever.")

Athena and Ares may not like each other most of the time, but they are willing to settle their dispute for their sister's sake.

3. But if it's meant to please Zeus, they can turn on each other.

I got this idea from a mutual during our late-night chat (if you're reading this, you know who you are) and made some changes according to my headcanons.

Athena and Ares vie for Zeus' attention and appreciation, with Athena having his love more. That doesn't mean Ares will give up on the competition, either due to his wounded pride as the legitimate but hated son or his childhood hope still lingers.

This sibling duo is tragic - two children fighting for the love of their parents that they lack in their childhood. Athena will snitch on Ares' over-involvement in human conflicts, and Ares will try to destroy Athena's war plans. The cycle continues as they take turns loathing the other's success and pulling each other down.

"Here's your hazelnut latte," Taehyung said with a smile, setting the customer's drink on the counter. Instead of taking it, the guy hovered awkwardly in place. "Anything else I can get you?"

"How about your number?" He asked with what was probably supposed to be a smooth grin. It wasn't. Tae internally sighed before pasting his customer-service smile on and producing the answer he had been giving since his first month at the cafe.

"Oh wow, that's really flattering! Thanks, you're really cute, but unfortunately my heart already belongs to someone."

It was a simple response, but one he had perfected to achieve maximum results. Compliment them and tell them they're attractive so as not to bruise any fragile egos. Give a reason for rejection that implies they would have had a chance otherwise. Girls and guys alike swooned at his loyalty to the supposed owner of his heart. It was the perfect defense. And if they reacted poorly, well, it wasn't like that type of person was a real loss as a customer.

However, lately the statement was starting to feel less and less like a lie. Involuntarily, his gaze trailed to the corner of the cafe. You were sitting there with an empty, long-since forgotten coffee mug, scribbling into a notebook. You looked up as if sensing his attention, and when your eyes met his heart gave a happy little stutter at your smile.

"Oh, her."

The customer had followed his line of sight, and Taehyung was glad that his skin was tanned enough to hide his blush. Lately, he had found his gaze landing on you more and more. Something about the guy's tone bothered him, but he was saved the effort of asking what he meant by the boy himself.

"I don't want to be the one to tell you this, but you know she's messing around behind your back, right?"

Taehyung felt his hackles rise at the derisive tone in the customer's voice, though a small, baby monster in his heart demanded to know who and how. It had first awoken that Festa weekend, at your unfortunate (in many ways) admission during Never Have I Ever. Combined with the prior knowledge of your most recent relationship, he had wondered if anyone had ever really treasured you the way he did.

I could do it, the creature had whispered insidiously. I could make her feel special.

The next day, the baby monster had grown, fed by the idea that you and Hobi had fallen into bed together. He didn't know why the thought bothered him so much. He loved the both of you, and his older brother would definitely treat you the way you deserved. But he couldn't deny the relief he had felt when discovering it was a misunderstanding. You had made it clear that first night that you weren't interested in anything other than friendship with any of them. That had been fine - smart, even. But the thought that you had rescinded that initial declaration for Hobi and Hobi alone had made him feel… jealous? Left out? Neglected?

Stop being an idiot, Taehyung scolded himself. Love isn't a finite resource. Her caring about someone else doesn't make your bond any weaker.

The customer apparently took his silence as an invitation to continue.

"I get it, she's really cute, but it's not worth it. She's constantly around other guys, like that Jimin dude. I think she's playing both of you."

The critter relaxed and went back to sleep. So this guy just saw you with other people - likely his roommates - and assumed you were messing around with all of them? He supposed they were all pretty affectionate with you, especially the younger half, but he did not appreciate the disdain in his gaze.

"Oh, I think you have the wrong idea," Taehyung said with a tight smile. "It's not like that. She's actually just one of our good friends. We all live together, you've probably been seeing her with our roommates."

The customer's eyebrows shot up.

"She lives with that many guys? Damn, so she just fucks around with all of you?"

He was starting to get irritated at this guy's judgemental tone. Actually he was far past irritated at this point. You weren't the type of person to toy with others' emotions like that. And even if you were fucking a hundred people, this idiot had no right to talk about you like this.

"It's not really any of your business either way, is it?" Taehyung finally countered, smile completely gone. Fuck getting a tip, he just wanted this guy to leave.

"Geez, I was just trying to help. Well, let me know if you ever come to your senses."

The customer left, and he sagged in relief, though annoyance still simmered in his veins. It was kind of ridiculous how quickly he had gone from feeling jealous about Hobi to feeling righteous indignation at the thought that you shouldn't be allowed to hook up with whoever you wanted. Then again, he was realizing that he had a hard time regulating his emotions in general when it came to you.

"You okay?"

Speak of the devil. You had left your table to check on him, clearly concerned by his interaction with judgey-mcjudgeface. Your presence eased some of the tension in his chest, and he felt flutters replace the irritated bubbles. He tried to summon the smile back onto his face, but you could evidently tell it was forced, because you reached across the counter to rub his head. Taehyung wanted nothing more than to bury himself in your arms, but he contented himself with lacing his fingers in your free hand.

"Tae? What's wrong?" Your eyes were warm, and the clear affection in them drew purrs from his heart-creature.

"Will you stay until I close?" He asked instead of answering. "I want to go home together."

Your laugh was music to his ears, and the monster in his chest grew ever larger as it eagerly devoured the sunlight in your smile.

"Of course, anything for you."

He was a total goner.

~~~~~

You smiled fondly as you watched Taehyung sweep the floors. He had expressly refused to let you help, so you were pretending to work on proofs while watching him out of the corner of your eye.

Just what had that customer said to him earlier? You had seen happy Taehyung, petulant Taehyung, and grumpy Taehyung, amongst many others, but that hard look on his face was completely new. What exactly had the guy said to make your friend look so uncharacteristically pissed?

You hadn't pressed when he deflected, and the way he had relaxed at your touch made your insides melt. When he so sweetly asked you to stay, you had been powerless to resist. How dare he have the audacity to be that adorable?

Finally, he was done with cleanup. By the time he locked the door behind the two of you the sky was a dusky purple. You closed your eyes and inhaled the fresh air, feeling energized by the beautiful evening. When you opened them again, Taehyung was gazing at you with an unfamiliar glimmer in his eyes.

For a moment it was all you could do to stare back, mesmerized by the way the dying sunlight managed to illuminate galaxies in those dark, hypnotic eyes. Then you came to your senses and looked away, hoping it was too dim for him to notice the blush creeping up your face.

Get a hold of yourself, you thought sternly. You've got it bad enough without adding another one to your thirst list.

It was Mina's fault for giving form to the vague affection that had begun swirling in your chest. That had to be the reason you were imagining the specific twinkle in his eyes that only seemed to appear when he looked at you.

When you managed to meet his gaze again, the strange look was gone and he was wearing that warm, familiar smile. Which was just as dangerous in its own way, but it was at least an expression your heart had already developed calluses against.

Taehyung was quiet for the first couple minutes of the walk home. When he finally spoke up, his question surprised you. And made your stupid overactive imagination go into overdrive.

"Are you seeing anyone?"

It took you a moment to register the question, and you paused to formulate your answer.

"Not right now," you finally admitted. "Between you guys, Mina, and schoolwork I'm pretty happy with life right now."

You had another, unmentioned reason for why you currently had zero interest in relationships. Growing feelings aside, you were pretty sure that any prospective suitor would be less than thrilled with the amount of physical affection you displayed with all of the housemates, and you were definitely not ready to give that up. The level of skinship, whether between the boys, or the boys and you, was something you hadn't experienced before and you loved every moment of it.

Well, there was also the fact that it was unlikely anyone you met in the near future would even measure up to them. But hopefully that wouldn't be the case. Oh god, were you going to grow old a lonely spinster just because you couldn't get your head out of your ass?

"Awww [y/n], you're the best," said Taehyung happily, tackling you in a hug and rubbing his nose into the top of your head.

"Ugh don't do that, I didn't wash my hair today," you complained, embarrassed but secretly pleased when he completely ignored you.

Idly you wondered if any of the guys was seeing or interested in anyone, before forcibly stopping your line of thought. It seemed unlikely - they rarely brought anyone over, and with the amount of time they all spent together wasn't conducive to a healthy relationship with anyone else.

Either way, it was none of your business. In a way you'd rather not know - any definitive confirmation that they were single would only give you false hope and serve to make your growing affections more dangerous.

The walk home was pleasant, if quiet. The weather was perfect, and the warm breeze told you summer would be here soon. With finals screaming towards you with the intensity of a thousand of the boys' scariest fangirls, you hadn't taken the time to stop and enjoy the scenery. So when you spied a bench on the way, you slowed and tugged Taehyung's arm, wanting to enjoy this rare moment of peace.

Being the big, clingy baby he was, you fully expected him to snuggle against you. What you didn't expect was for him to throw his arms around you and bury his face into your neck.

"Aw Tae," you cooed, stroking his hair. He looked up at you and you froze, drowning in the deep, dark pools of his eyes. Why was he looking at you like that, like you were his entire world? You couldn't handle this right now, not when your walls were already cracked and crumbling from the extended siege of a war the boys didn't even realize they were waging.

That realization doused you with an icy mixture of disappointment and relief. Taehyung wasn't treating you in some special way - he was just being his normal, lovable self. You were the one reading into things as if you were a high schooler who believed Cosmo tips like "if he looks at you and sneezes, that's his body's involuntary way of saying he's in love."

Ugh. Maybe you couldn't stop yourself from getting too attached in a more-than-friendly way, but you weren't going to inflict them with it. They had enough to deal with without having to feel guilty about not returning feelings you weren't supposed to have in the first place. That you yourself had told them wouldn't occur.

To distract yourself, and because you weren't sure how much longer you could handle those gorgeous eyes without doing something you'd regret, you pulled away slightly and ruffled Taehyung's hair.

"Do you want to talk about that guy earlier?" You asked, and he stiffened.

"What about him?"

"It just seemed like he upset you," you said, worried by your friend's tight smile.

"He just said some things after I turned him down," he explained, smile fading into a small frown. You forced yourself not to put out a hand to smooth the small wrinkle in his brow.

"Ah, one of those," you said in understanding. Why couldn't some people just handle rejection gracefully? Poor Taehyung. "It must be hard to be so beautiful."

"You tell me."

Your mind went blank. You hadn't been expecting that. Especially not coupled with those bottomless eyes and the same undecipherable expression you had seen earlier.

"Haha, very funny Tae," you deflected uncomfortably, trying to stave off the hammering in your chest. It was unfair what just a look and a compliment was doing to you.

"It's true," he protested. He straightened, and his next few actions made your adrenaline spike so high they might as well have been in slow motion.

He cupped your cheeks in his hands.

What is he doing? What is happening?

"You're perfect, [y/n]." He leaned in, resting his forehead on yours.

Ohmygodohmygodohmygod.

And then rubbed the tip of his nose against yours.

Is this a fucking nose kiss? Wait these are supposed to be lame why does this feel so nice?

Before you could physically react, he pulled away and stood up.

"Let's get going," he said with a soft smile, holding out his hand. Speechless and mind still reeling, you took it. God you were so whipped.

You were so preoccupied with your thoughts that you didn't notice the tender glances Taehyung stole your way, or that your hand stayed in his for the remainder of the walk home.

🎃IRMA'S SPOOKY FICLET-FEST 🎃

Hello besties! If you know, you know, that I keep it spooky all year round, but halloween is my absolute favorite time of the year and I like to find creative ways to celebrate for the whole month! This summer I’ve been coming back to writing so much thanks to the newest silly man, so I decided to keep that up by celebrating the spooky season with ficlets! The goal is to keep them around 100 - 200  words so that I can manage to complete them, since life is super busy for me atm (but there’s always time for the spooky time). I’ve come up with a list of prompts based mostly on spooky songs and horror movies that I like. 

RULES

The movie prompt requests CAN be related to the actual plot of the movie but not necessarily (maybe you just find the title interesting). Also applies to the songs

You can definitely mix up and combine from each category if you like! or throw an original idea of yours, mixed with a prompt from this list

Please specify if you’d like for the ficlet to include smut, or if you’d like for me to keep it sfw 

(please consider that the main blorbo of the moment is Eddie Munson and that most of my writing recently has been centered around him, but I AM including the blorbos of my past) 

Things I don't include in my writing: a character being related to another one from canon, specific descriptions of physical appearance such as weight, race, etc.

I came up with these prompts for my own use, and I don’t consent to have these reposted somewhere else without my knowledge. If you feel inspired to write based on these, I’d appreciate to be given the credit.

Prompt fills will start to get posted from late September through October 31st.

Happy Halloween friends, let the spooky season begin with open requests!

Nine Five people I'd like to get to know better

Tagged by @firstaudrina 🥰💛 Thank you darling!

Last Song: Crystal Caving by Darlingside - went to see them this weekend and they were gorgeous 💛

Favourite Colour: Changes with the tides. In a bit of a green era right now, but often come back to yellow with pink & yellow as a fave combination.

Last Book: I've been in a bit of a slower reading stage for a few months now, sort of picking at several different books, but the last one I finished was Invisible Monsters by Chuck Palahniuk on the recommendation of bestie @kieren-fucking-walker. Palahniuk's writing style really propels you along and it was appropriately unhinged 💛 I also recently read Bryan Lee O'Malley's latest graphic novel Seconds, which I really enjoyed although the romance subplot turned out to be a bit underbaked and it kinda lesbian-baited me a little 😅

Last Movie: Me and the folks just watched Ferris Bueller's Day Off, an all-time favourite. And now that I've got some space to myself I treated myself to a Jaws night 🥰🥰🥰

Last TV Show: Just been watching some Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased) because it's an old fave of mum's. The show I'm chugging along through myself atm is good ol' Hatecrimes House MD.

Sweet/Spicy/Savoury: Mostly savoury, but got a real sweet tooth for fresh fruit

Relationship Status: Single and too lazy/awkward to do nought about it </3 Fellow fags come flirt with me

Last Thing I Googled: em9 ukulele - I keep forgetting to make a note of the shapes of the more niche chords and having to go look 'em up

Current Obsession: 'Tis still Saw 😔 Feel free to ask me for my horror/Saw fic sideblog but only if you can be trusted with my secret identity and dark/kinkfic lmao

Looking Forward To: I have a trip to London planned and I'm gonna see some friends and some mutuals and I'm going to wear my stupid dinosaur shirt (it's a white tee with a T-Rex and the word FASCINATING printed above it) and draw the critters in the Natural History Museum. Also looking forward to having my big room revamp done, my cosy bed nook is basically there but now there's more furniture to customise! And of course I'm looking forward to some more changes, I'm one month on T and counting - gonna have the nastiest little rat moustache 🥰💛

I'm gonna tag @evilphrog @girl-bateman @theflirtmeister @motherdanger @captainclickycat and anyone else who feels like sharing, consider yourself tagged!

Horned Advance

Chapter Spooky - Palo, the Ghoul

A couple years before our story begins, a younger Palo and a smaller Quinn find themselves prepping to go ‘Trick or Treating,’ a strange concept to the critter but one that Quinn assures will be fun and worthwhile. Quinn had stolen a set of bedsheets from her bed and cut out two eye holes, bringing this brand new ghost costume to her forest creature friend.

"It’s perfect! This way we can walk together and no one will suspect a thing!" She says, a wide grin spread across her round face. 

"I don’t think this’s a good idea, Quinn…" Mutters an ever cautious Palo, with a look of resignation on her face. She’d tried many times to sneak into normal human cultures in her yesteryears, being stung every time she did.

"Bah! Quiet you. We’ll be dandy.." Quinn snaps back. ‘You could get away with no sheet at all this time of year… But this way we’re being extra safe, just how you like it alright? So I’ll be having none of that from you.’ She lectures Palo in the same way you would lecture a cat, jokingly scolding her for her party-pooping. "Plus, you’ve always wanted to try it right? Touring the town and getting a taste of each little home." She says, throwing the sheet over Palo’s head. Palo bears a sour frown, unable to shoot down Quinn’s jolly hopes. "We’ll head out together, we’ll load up and we’ll come back here to chow down, ok? I told my parents I’m out with the village girls, so they won’t be expecting me back any time soon." Quinn reassures. Palo keeps her cautions, but concedes to Quinn’s insistent plan, picking up a spare bucket she’d brought over from her parents house.

And so the two set out into the night, Palo leading the way through the dense woodland within which she’d been living back to Quinn’s small town of Babilia. After a couple scrapes to the sheet, leaving it with a more worn and ghastly look they arrive on the edge of town, staring down all of the houses ripe for the tricking. Or treating. 

"How do I look?" Quinn asks, with her outfit now made clear by the bright lights of town. She wore a frilly white dress with feather wings far too small for her poking out from her back and a cheesy yellow halo poking up over her head, held up by a thin stick. In all honesty she looked pretty bad, the shrubbery they’d passed rubbing off on her outfit- staining it green and covering it with fabric tears. Despite this, it was clear to even one thick skulled as Palo that this meant a lot to her, so she replied, "Great! You look great." With the best not at all forced smile she could manage. A coy smile creeps across Quinn's face before she turns back to face the town. 

"Let’s go, then!" She says, leading the way with a hop in her step.

The two girls knock on the first door of the night, with it swinging open to reveal an elderly woman, one Quinn seems to know.

"Trick or treat!" She says, with Palo following in a much less confident fashion.

The two girls walk away from the first house with their buckets already a good bit heavier, Quinn skipping jubilantly.

"Y’see I know all the best spots. My parents had me go on errands for them so often that I know most of the village by name… Which means I also know who has the biggest stashes!" She announces with a hint of mischief in her voice. Palo could tell from here that it would be a long night.

Hours later, the clocks nearing midnight Palo and Quinn return to the critter’s little forest den, Quinn’s legs tired from all of the prancing about town. The two empty their buckets on a stone slab Palo had been using as a table, taking in the awesome visage of their candy mound.

"It’s… It’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen…!" Quinn mumbles under her breath, this time even Palo taken aback by the sheer ocean of diabetes laid out in front of her.

"Can we eat it?" The critter asks, desperate but unsure if it’s ok to do so.

"Of cour- WAIT… One moment… I’ll be back in a minute. Don’t touch anything!" Quinn says, springing out of her seat and sprinting off into the dark.

For a moment it was quiet. The night was dull, and away from the city there was no light or cheer beyond the quiet gaze of the starry night sky. Palo felt a deep sense of loneliness cut into her, as she realised she’d be once again spending a night of festivities without any family or companio-BAM! Quinn thuds back into the scene, bursting through the makeshift door Palo had put in place to conceal her woodland cave home. 

"I’m back!" She proclaims, as if she hadn’t made it clear with her presence. The girl pants for air for a moment before steadying herself and sitting down next to Palo.

"You really thought I’d forget, didn’t you… That it’s your birthday!" She says, pulling out something from a little knapsack she had tied around her shoulder since leaving. She pulls out a handful of tinfoil, before unwrapping it to reveal a scruffy little chocolate cake, the icing pulling away with the foil. It looked a mess, and Palo could see the light draining from Quinn’s face as the cake essentially fell apart in her hands, but didn’t want to let the sweet gesture go to waste.

"Thank you… Thank you so much." The critter says, taking the mess of a cake from her hands.

"Ah, wait!" Quinn blurts out, pulling out a single candle and a matchbook from the sack, sticking it on top of the cake and lighting it up. "Now it’s a real birthday cake." She says, with her radiant positivity restored to her face. In this moment Palo feels the most sincere appreciation she had felt in her life up to this point, and tears begin to roll down her cheeks. Not once before now had anyone even noted her birthday, let alone celebrated it with her, and for one such as her this was too much. She places the cake down atop its foil on the table, and pulls Quinn in for a tight embrace; tears now streaming down her face in one of the few honest shows of emotions in her life. "Thanks… Quinn.. Thanks.." Was all she could manage, in the unusually shaky voice for a hardened survivor such as herself. Quinn hugged her back tightly, before turning to the cake that she’d brought over.

"You’d best start eating this… Or I’ll be done with it before you get a chance!" She taunts, reaching for the cake. Her action prompted Palo to react, snatching at the cake and gobbling half of it down before Quinn could even lay a finger on it. Palo wipes the tears from her face and genuinely smiles, not a sight you see often.

"Oh, that’s right! The candle. You need to make a wish!" Quinn says, gesturing towards the mangled corpse of the cake, the candle leaning awkwardly off the edge. "Blow it out, and make a wish in your head…"

Palo takes a moment to consider what she might wish for, mulling over her options in her head but in this moment there is only one thing she could really consider.

"I wish we can grow old together." She says, blowing out the candle.

"Gahh! You’re not supposed to say it out loud!" Quinn cries, "Now you’ve jinxed us forever!"

Palo looks at her for a moment, and Quinn looks back, before they both burst into a fit of giggles. And so they laughed the night away, the night of Palo’s first real birthday, and one that cemented the two as friends ‘til the end.

Sex Should Be Fun, Not Dirty

 A few things that gross me out about porno myths

By LargoKitt. Listen to the Podcast at How To Sex.

What I HATE About Porn

Right up front let me make it clear that I watch erotica, read erotica, and write erotica. Please scope out my stories or poems or even my art and I think you will be pleased. Porn is very ancient stuff. Prehistoric people were making images designed to turn them on, and I'm sure they were sitting around the campfire and telling spicy stories. Motivating people to do the deed and plant the seed has been a major push for millennia. Hindus and Greeks and lots of other folks have gods who celebrate procreation. Heck, the Bible contains the steamy Song of Solomon. And in Genesis, God never said, "Don't fuck." He said, "Be fruitful and multiply."

Don’t Make Me Feel Shitty

Point 1: BDSM. I don't think sex is dirty and I really don't much like stories or vids or auds that portray people who feel like shit for feeling horny. Guys should not have to apologize for hard-ons they get in an honest scenario. Horny is built into the machinery. But hang on, I understand that if you were brought up in a strict religious household where touching yourself or anyone else without a legal contract will cause Old Scratch himself to snatch you by the short hairs and drag you to Hell where he'll fry you till you're a crispy critter; if that's the crap that's in the back of your head when you spot a hottie and the spirit rises; well then I can see how being bad and feeling good might end up in the back of the same pickup truck.

Since religious figures, priests and preachers and missionaries and nuns, are placed artificially off-limits, I can see how getting under that dark robe might be a turn on. But a story about raping a priest or a nun who used to humiliate you in school. That's not erotica. That's a revenge horror story and I hate it being considered a turn-on. And stories about religious folks exploiting or hurting kids is never sexy. It's criminal.

I personally despise stories that feature people despising each other, especially in the bedroom. I might write a story about people playing at humiliating one another. I can imagine people, maybe a woman CEO who is always in charge and demanding of respect, enjoying a fantasy where someone calls her a 'stupid worthless slutty cock-sucking bitch'. Same with a male CEO who likes to be ridden and whipped like a stubborn mule. I can imagine those characters getting relief from constant responsibility. I can see how the sting of a little pain might lift their spirits.

But I switch off when the sex is about the pain. Oh I get how a spanking or being bound and restrained might raise the stakes of sensation. But then the pain is about the sex. And the sex plus pain is for the pleasure of the person being bound or 'punished' not for some nut who gets his or her nut by hurting other people. I understand if your kink swells when you have someone in your power. But for me sex is always a dance with equal partners even if you're playing that it's not.

So. Stories teach. And I HATE stories or videos that teach men that it's okay to treat women like shit. Also stories that teach women that the only way they can tell a man what she wants is to be a cruel slutty dom. Or little girls who need permission from 'daddy.' Or independent women just waiting to be enslaved by a cruel master who "knows just what they want."

Bottom line: whatever your kink, sex should be fun for all members of the party and their members, and fun shouldn't make you feel weird and guilty.

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun

Point 2 -- Girls just wanna have fun. I HATE porn that is all about the man getting his nut with no concern for the woman getting hers. What's up with that? Are most pornos secretly for men who are into men? Why in Baal's name do we always spend so much time looking at dude's dicks? And balls? And assholes?

Maybe a viewer who isn't built like superman likes to pretend he is the buff cut flexing shiny well-waxed, spray-tanned hunk who is drilling a hottie who is lying about what a turn-on he is. But how about, for once, having a Don Juan or Lothario who is actually a role model for how to light a lady's fire? Because if you have the basic equipment, but really know what to do with it your reputation as a cocksmith may grow, and most often it won't be about your cock.

The guy may be necessary in the video to show what turns her on. But then I want to spend lots of time seeing her get with it. I don't want a guys ass between me and the beautiful stuff any more than it has to. And for pity's sake, porn makers and porn writers, show us what is happening with her, how this lick or that deep plunge is beginning to light her up. Some of you dudes may be all about pretending you are this super-stud and this total hottie just wants to be drilled by you until your jackhammer has busted the pavement. But really, that's not as much fun as taking the time to wind her up and truly get her truly excited.

Hard truth: Jamming your dick is the LAST turn-on a woman usually wants to feel to get her off. Everything else you do: flirting with her, complimenting her, giving her a gift, feeding her, kissing her, gently touching her, rubbing her, fingering and licking, ALL are bigger turn-ons than your dick. She may want your dick, because it feels good, fills her up in a way she likes, connects in a powerful way, shows you want her and only her so damn bad, and are eager to feed her your seed. But her orgasm usually comes from the other strokes.

And for lesbian couples this literally goes double. Two loving gals are not usually eager to pretend to be hard dick-jamming men.

Lesbian Porn

Point 3 - "Lesbian" videos (or stories) are not made for women, even though most women now and again fantasize about having it on with another woman. But how often does anyone actually ask the women to write the script about how two women come to get it on? Note how many writers who identify as lesbians or bi, put at the top of the story, something like, "If you just want to get right to the sex you may be disappointed, because this story has a slow build. That is because, gentlemen, that the lead up in a lesbian story is the lust. So how about more videos in which the women take their time playing with each other? Not hours of loud smacky fake kisses and tongue tangling. No. Real attention to all the erogenous zones: the neck, the ears, lots of exploring tender skin, the talking. Seeing each face come alive. And always, take your time. After all; what's your hurry?

Butt?

Point 4: But, but, butt. Maybe there was a time when the idea and the illustration of a man having penetrative intercourse with another person's anus was a strange and exotic turn-on. Now you have to plow through the butt shots to get to any other kind of sexual activity. Enough already. Or put the butt play into a special search for those you don't lift off except when imagining back door action. Otherwise, go easy. And that means planning your camera angles so we aren't looking at someone's shitter when hot romantic sex is supposed to be happening.

Roughly Sensual?

Point 5 - Rougher and tougher is not hotter. Oh, sure, sometimes jamming, and slappling and hurling her (him) around is at the peak of turn-on. Sometimes the opposite is true. The smooth strokes can really reach her. Gentle that breast. Please that little spot on the side of her neck. Sweetly tickle that clit hood. Do spend lots of time on the breasts and nipples. Stroke and kiss and suck them a dozen ways and do it again. Let us see her face and hear her voice as this happens. Talk to her. It doesn't matter if the vid is shot in Slovenian.

All the senses say something

Point 6 - And speaking of voice, let us hear how she is feeling. I don't mean clichés like "Oh baby, you're so big." I mean those personal sounds that tell you she is beginning to feel it. Let us hear her breath slowly get more raw and excited. Encourage her to say what she needs. That last point is important, and very sexy. Not just, "Oh yeah, right there, right there," but, "Grab my tit hard please." "Squeeze my ass." "Kiss me...I need you to kiss me." And let us hear him as his excitement builds and he begins to groan and roar. For lesbian sex it would be good to really hear the couple work out what feels good. "That's good; roll a little to your left. Yeah, move up that way." "Keep rocking. Oh please don't stop rocking." "Just lick inside right there with the tip of your tongue." "Shut up and fuck me hard."

Sprayed vs filled?

Point 7 - The money shot. Time was, you had to know this was real sex, so the dude had to spill the cream at the end. Now I think that's old hat. The real money shot is seeing her get off for real. Now we know that for most women PIV sex is not the true lift off. It may be great, but it is the satisfier that says your man is happy and has really connected. Your orgasm(s) can come any time along the way and are proof that your lover is really paying attention to your needs. And here's a simple dirty secret: most guys watching and probably a lot of women are going to get off when they see her cum more than when they see him cum. And for me nothing is sexier than both partners getting off while they are deeply connected. No need to 'open out' awkwardly so we see all the messy bits. For the last lap let them find each others' rhythm and go for it.

Stay Unselfish

Coda - Make videos with people who know and respect each other. Even if the love play is rough and tumble, have your "actors" know and care about each other and show they care about each others' bodies. Give them time to get to know each other before they shoot the scene. And we have all seen "the four ways to fuck"-- now missionary, now doggie, now her on top, now on her side with him behind, pull out and jizz in her mouth. Yawn. Let them work out what gets them excited.

My Golden Rules: NEVER feature sex with children. NEVER feature enslaved, exploited, addicted, or drugged participants. NEVER treat women like they are second class citizens. NEVER have the talk or action be racist. NEVER show rough sex without the absolute consent of all participants. NEVER confuse torture for stimulation. NEVER exploit young or broke people to make a porno. There are plenty of adults willing to make sex videos for fun and/or profit.

And if you like erotic stories, videos, audios, pix then use the ones that respect people and avoid the ones that don't.

If the maker breaks those golden rules, don't watch or pay for that shit.

I KNOW I am bumping up against some people's favorite kinks, or even the whole reason they seek out porn. That's them. Maybe that's you. Okay, but the stuff I list above is what ruins it for me. I have a simple stance. Sex is good. Sex is fun. People do best when they don't feel angry, or ashamed, or guilty while doing it. You can play football to maim the other player or humiliate them. For me that ruins the game. Our bodies have wonderful built-in toys. Enjoy them.

 The 11 Best Sexual Positions for Satisfying Sex

Tons of sexual positions can bring mutual satisfaction, but do you know which ones both you and your partner can enjoy? Check out these 11 you might want to try the next time you get frisky.

By Ashley Welch

Switch up your sexual routine so you and your partner can rekindle your connection.

There are hundreds of hot sex positions for couples that bring partners’ bodies together for mutual pleasure. Knowing a variety of sex positions can help you be a better and more inventive lover for your partner.

What Are the Best Ways to Have Mutually Satisfying Sex?

That answer is different for every couple. "I would define the best position as the position that works best for the individual or individuals involved,” says Tameca Harris-Jackson, PhD, a certified sex educator, a sex therapist.

"Trying different sex positions actually offers an opportunity to bring different ways of experiencing pleasure into sexual intimacy and a sexual relationship,” Dr. Harris-Jackson says. “You can eat the same meal every day for 20 years, but it doesn’t mean you’re going to get the most joy out of it. You’re just getting the nutrients. But if you try to add a little bit of parsley to that meal, you might taste it in a different way, and it might become a more exciting meal. And that’s what having new positions in a relationship can do.”

There are nonphysical factors to consider, too. Take intimacy, for example. For many people, especially women, intimacy can lead to better sexual experiences because partners are comfortable and trusting enough to ask for what they desire and to try new things.

Many couples are figuring out exactly those benefits, according to research funded by the Kinsey Institute at the University of Indiana.

An online survey of 1,559 adults showed that while people had less frequent sex during the first weeks of the COVID-19 pandemic, they were more willing to try new things, which included sexting, sharing sexual fantasies, and experimenting with new sex positions.

Try New Sexual Positions to Spice Things Up

Stressful periods of time can make it difficult to get aroused and stay aroused, says study coauthor Justin L. Lehmiller, PhD, a research fellow at the Kinsey. “Trying something new can amp up your arousal,” he says. “Trying new things is about self-discovery — what works for your body, your relationship — and that’s going to have lifelong benefits.”

You don’t have to be a gymnast to make these moves pay off. Don’t think “crazy sex positions,” rather “new sex positions” to create more heat between the sheets.

“Not every position is for everyone, and that’s okay,” says Dr. Lehmiller. “But even if the positions described here don’t work for you (maybe you’ve already tried them), that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try new and different things. Novelty is one of the things that keeps us interested in coming back for more. When sex is the same every time, we tend to lose interest. New positions are a handy way of adding an element of novelty and newness to our sex lives.”

1: The Missionary Position or Face-to-Face

Potential Benefits or Caveats Intimate but not necessarily mutually satisfying.

Details It's a simple sex position: The woman lies on her back with her legs spread and knees bent slightly. The man lies between his woman’s legs and guides his penis or sex toy into his lover’s vagina or anus, supporting her body weight with his arms or elbows.

The problem with the missionary position is that it’s not as good at delivering pleasure to women. The pelvis of the partner on top can sometimes stimulate the clitoris in this position, and it offers great intimacy through face-to-face contact. But the angle of the penis does not allow for deep penetration or stimulation of the G-spot (felt through a location on the front wall of the vagina and believed by some experts to be a stimulus for orgasm in women). Some women also complain that this sex position doesn't provide enough clitoral stimulation to experience climax.

In a study published in August 2020 in Sexual Medicine, researchers in the Czech Republic surveyed 1,100 heterosexual people about 13 sex positions and revealed that most people still choose the missionary position even though it does not correlate with orgasm for women.

Try Female-Friendly Intercourse Positions

If the most common sex position is not offering women consistent orgasms, then one important thing to do to is “close the orgasm gap,” says Lehmiller, and try a new sex position. In other words, don't limit yourself to the missionary position.

"In most cultures, it is not the most used position," says Beverly Whipple, PhD, RN, a certified sexuality educator and professor emerita at Rutgers University in New Jersey.

If you are looking to spice up your sexual experience and enjoy better sex, try some of these female-friendly positions. Many afford partners the chance for clitoral stimulation, which is what 35.4 percent of women said they need to reach orgasm.

2: Cowgirl

Potential Sensual Benefits or Caveats Deep penetration and sensations vary; clitoral stimulation.

Details In this position, the man lies on his back while the partner being penetrated faces them and kneels, straddling his pelvis. She can then sit up or lie down on her man.

"This is a great position for a woman to control the depth of penetration," Harris-Jackson says. “It’s also a good position to get multiple forms of stimulation. With the woman’s body upright, the nipples can be engaged, which can lead to extra arousal. It is good for having access to the clitoris for stimulation.”

The riding partner can choose whether to bounce up and down, grind, or make hip circles — each delivering a slightly different sensation. “This is also a good position for a person with a penis if they have back issues because it’s almost a resting position for them,” she says.

3: Reverse Cowgirl or Reverse Rider on Top

Potential Sensual Benefits and Caveats Buttocks play, visual stimulations, opportunities for variations; may cause pain.

Details The man lies on his back while the woman sits astride him, facing his feet, and slips his penis into her vagina or anus. The woman can control the rhythm and pace of the thrusts. This position can be especially exciting for the man, who gets to observe the back and buttocks of his lover. Squeezing or grabbing the buttocks can enhance the experience for both. This position can be tricky to master since it requires the woman to lean back or sit up very straight to accommodate the angle of the penis. “If you’re leaning forward, it can be painful and uncomfortable for the man because it could almost feel like his penis is breaking,” says Harris-Jackson, who recommends having the man bend his knees while the woman holds her hands against her lover’s thighs or waist.

Switch It Up “This may be one of those positions that is better in theory than in practice,” says Lorrae Jo Bradbury, a sex and love coach and the founder of SluttyGirlProblems.com and LorraeJo.com. “You might want to use it as a foreplay position, grinding on his penis before you begin intercourse.”

4: Doggy Style or Rear Entry

Potential Sensual Benefits and Caveats Deep penetration and G-spot stimulation but the position can feel impersonal.

Details In this position, the woman kneels on all fours, supporting herself with her hands and knees. The man crouches and enters from behind. This is the best sex position for deep penetration of the vagina. It gives the man freedom to thrust hard and fast, and allows easy access to caress much of the woman’s body. The position also allows for good G-spot stimulation.

Switch It Up Some people complain that this sex position is too impersonal because there's no face-to-face contact. “If you want closer eye contact with this position,” says Bradbury, move your knees closer to your chest and arch your back so your partner can lean into you near your face and you can make eye contact. Bradbury says you can also try this position in front of a mirror so you can see one another’s faces.

A variation of this can be done standing; using a high bed, dining table, or even the kitchen counter; when a woman lays her chest or forearms upon the solid surface. Many women report laying in wait at the kitchen, when their man comes home. Her sticky panties are dropped to her knees. With his coat still on, she simply orders him; “Fuck Me Now! I can’t wait another minute!” He follows her instructions and sates her lusts. After his spunk fills her wanton cunt, she turns to face him, holds his spent cock, and says; “This rod needs to be ready for round two, after dinner, in the bedroom.

5: The Corkscrew

Potential Sensual Benefits or Caveats Intense, deep penetration.

Details Leaning forward, the woman lies on the edge of the bed facing inward, resting on her hip and forearm while her partner enters her from behind. The woman can keep her thighs together for a tighter hold on the penis or penetrating toy. But if the woman opens her legs, the clitoris is exposed for stroking while the man thrusts from behind. “You’re getting that deeper penetration like doggy style, but this may be an easier and more comfortable position,” says Bradbury.

Switch It Up Your partner can easily lean down to make out with you, and the clitoris is within easy reach, according to Bradbury.

6: Side by Side or Sideways

Potential Sensual Benefits or Caveats Deep eye contact and intimacy.

Details Both partners lie on their sides, facing each other. The woman lifts her top leg so the man can enter her. This position is great for morning sex when you might be a little sleepy, says Bradbury.

It offers intimacy because you are close to each other’s face. The partners can kiss and caress each other during lovemaking. The sex position is relaxing, doesn't require a lot of stamina from either person, and offers an opportunity for good clitoral stimulation.

Switch It Up Penetration can be improved if the woman drapes both legs over her man’s waist, Bradbury says. This allows great access to the clitoris, which can be stimulated with a finger or with a toy. “I think this is a great position for everyone,” she says. “It offers the comfort of cuddling, too.”

7: Flat Iron or Lazy Dog

Potential Sensual Benefits and Caveats Tightness on penetration, intense stimulation.

Details The woman lies on her stomach with her legs straight and hips slightly raised. (You can place a pillow under your hips.) The man enters from behind. When lying face down, the woman’s legs will be closer together, which creates a snugger fit for her man’s penis or sex toy. This can lead to a new, more intense sensation. “This is a really good way to increase the experience of tightness for the man,” Harris-Jackson says. “It’s also good for clitoral stimulation because the partner can reach around with his hand or a sex toy to provide dual stimulation. And it’s a good position for G-spot stimulation because you’re angling the body so that the penis is in perfect alignment to stroke against the G-spot.”

8: Face-Off

Potential Sensual Benefits and Caveats With intense eye contact and clitoral stimulation, this can be an enhanced missionary position.

Details In this position, the man sits on the edge of a bed or in a comfortable seated position while the woman climbs on his lap face-to-face. The woman wraps her legs around his waist and can control the pace of thrusting. This position also allows for direct clitoral stimulation and eye contact, which can increase intimacy.

Bonus Your hands are free so you can touch and caress your lover’s body nearly anywhere you would like. “This is a really impactful position for people who are aroused with eye contact,” says Harris-Jackson. “It’s like missionary, but you are really face-to-face. It also takes some of the work off the woman because the man can move her up and down by placing his hands on her hips.”

Switch It Up The lotus position is very similar to face-off, only the man sits crossed-legged on the bed or chair.

9: Pretzel Dip

Potential Sensual Benefits and Caveats Deep penetration with potential for G-spot stimulation.

Details The woman lies on her right side as the man straddles his lover’s right leg. The man then pulls his woman’s left leg up and around his left side and enters her vagina or anus. This position allows deep penetration while also allowing the intimacy of maintaining eye contact.

Switch it Up “You can also take your left leg and pull it toward your chest to get a deeper angle,” says Bradbury. “And you have amazing access to the clitoris for both partners.” Your hands will be free, which can allow you to run them all over each other’s body. Adds Harris-Jackson: “This position — depending on your angle — can also offer G-spot stimulation, as well.”

10: Coital Alignment Technique (CAT)

Potential Sensual Benefits and Caveats Clitoral stimulation.

Details If you want to rock rather than thrust, roll with CAT. This position is similar to missionary; the main difference is that the man pushes the base of his penis so that it lines up with her clitoris and the two make contact. Once they do, the couple rock back and forth and maintain constant contact. “It’s a little bit of a different way of having sex,” says Lehmiller. “You rock back and forth rather than thrusting. Doing so prolongs the length of intercourse for the man and increases the odds of a woman having an orgasm because she’s having that constant stimulation.”

11: Sixty-Nine (or 69)

Potential Sensual Benefits and Caveats Mutual oral stimulation.

Details This position involves both lovers performing and receiving oral sex at the same time. Typically, one partner lies on their back while the other climbs on top of them and turns around, straddling them with their genitals above their lover’s face. The person on top then leans forward and begins performing oral sex on their lover while simultaneously receiving. This position can require some coordination and balance, particularly for the partner on top. One way to make 69 a bit more comfortable for both lovers is to lie on their sides during the act.

Keep Switching It Up: Sexual Variety Is Exciting

In our day-to-day lives, we tend to be very goal-oriented, says Harris-Jackson. “We wake up in the morning and it’s go, go, go to get out the door. We go, go, go to eat our food, to go to work. It creates a lot of stress and tension in our bodies and in our minds. Many patients that I see feel that sex becomes one more thing that they have to go, go, go and do. But sexual partners should be really with one another and feel pleasure together. Switching up positions can be very helpful to rekindle that connection. So it can be helpful and fun to try something new.”
