Think I dislike Stormblood because it gets off on the wrong foot with me. My suspension of disbelief is ruined by Zenos particularly. We fought multiple power primals and wyrms of the First Brood but somehow this one dude waltzes in and is stronger than us. Plus the padding. We cannot save Ala Mhigo now or the story will be over lets go to Doma to save it now back to Ala Mhigo where we got full on movies of cutscenes between various dialogues until finally we reach the end of the weirdest utilized zone of the Lochs. And Doma who went to save so we could get aid with the liberation doesn't show up til the last minute. Then the post Stormblood dances between Gyr Albania and the Far East but feels like it doesn't know what its doing. Until the narrative throws its hand up and is like alright War at a stalemate, your friends are spirited away. Lets move onto Shadowbringers. To this day Stormblood feels like two half ideas glued together and is lesser for it somehow.
So, suspension of disbelief broken, rough pacing, ill use of well talked about lands, a very very weirdly placed last third, and the second third being called into question when we only see the results at literally the tail end. Meandering around for a Post-Patch before the narrative seems to want to wash its hands of the experience and take us to another world instead. Which feels exactly like entering Heavensward which felt like we were starting on a blank slate from the bloat and meandering of ARR. Its like I can FEEL the brick wall of writing being hit in Stormblood's various juggling narratives. While trying to string along uprising, revolution and the breaking the chains of tyranny. But it also feels like no even Garlemald wants to be in Ala Mhigo or Doma as much as both states people want them there.
And then Zenos pretty much sits around for the entire narrative. Until the...very quoteable but lackluster final instanced battle of Endwalker. After he's been dangled as a carrot in front of us for two whole expansions and like one in half post patch cycles.
A Realm Reborn and Stormblood feel ROUGH to me.
While Heavensward feels like gliding across a smooth bed. Shadowbringers has a couple bumps in its bed labeled "Ran'jit" but otherwise feels like a nice smooth experience too. Endwalker...I dunno. Over time I feel less and less enamored with it. It also feels like the first two thirds are meant to be climaxes to Post-Patches but like...form Elpis onward is the actual expansion somehow.
Wonder what Dawntrail will feel like.

Your Next Sexual Encounter (18+)
Pile 1 -> Pile 2
Pile 3 -> Pile 4
Deck Used: Erotic Tarot
Pile 1
WoF, 7oC, AoF, 4oF (rev), 3oS, KnoR, Empress, KoC, 10oF, 4oS, 10oC, 5oS, Hanged Man, QoS, 3oC, KnoF
Pile 1, you might come across someone randomly or unexpectedly, or you could go on a few casual dates through a dating app. Your social life may be buzzing with many choices, but you won't settle for just anyone. It takes more than sweet talk to get you into bed.
You'll be enjoying the dating scene and going out with multiple people, maybe even someone who is grounded and another who is passionate. You'll feel attracted to both of them, but you're holding back until you figure out who you want to commit to exclusively. Both individuals will desire both romantic and physical intimacy with you, and since the empress card appears between these options, I sense that starting a family or the desire for it could play a significant role in your decision-making process in the future.
Once you do make your choice, I feel the sexual encounter between you and your person will be very healing and therapeutic. You will both be recovering from past betrayal or heartbreak that left you feeling closed off to new love. However, once the two of you come together, you will each be able to lay all your cards on the table and ask for what you want both in sex and in love. Because of this, sex between you two will be intensely gratifying and fulfilling. You may decide to try some light kinks such as bondage, handcuffs or unusual positions, but you will both mainly focus on making the other person feel desired and at ease. One or both of you might love to talk dirty and this will drive the other person mad - making it hard for them to go slow or hold back. But in-between those moments, you will talk about the future of your connection and how much you are both ready to take the next step and see how things go. This will be a start to a beautiful long-term relationship.

Pile 2
5oF, 6oS, Devil, Justice, 10oC, 3oF, 2oR, Empress, 6oC, Temperance, 4oS, AoF, Star, 6oF, 2oC
Pile 2, if this is someone you had a falling out with or recently split up with, they're coming back to show you how much you mean to them. They want to make things right and see if you guys can still patch things up in the bedroom like before. Despite the way things ended, they still feel that the spark and sexual chemistry between you is incredible. They truly feel that whatever caused the rift in the past will soon be a distant memory once you reignite things in the bedroom.
If either of you has felt ignored or left to deal with a broken heart, this person will go the extra mile to make things right. They will show you through their actions and how they care for your heart that they are ready to reconcile and be the person you need them to be. Once you are aware of their desires, it will make your climax together seem like the start of something new and beautiful.
Afterwards, they will express how much they regret taking you for granted or walking away in the past and will open up about their doubts from before. They see you as the most important person in their life and want it known that when it comes down to choosing between you and anyone else, there is absolutely no competition. After you guys hook up, they want to be with you forever.
Channelled Song: Thinking out Loud by Ed Sheeran
Pile 3
KnoR, WoF, 9oC, KnoF, Hanged Man, PoR, KoR, 2oC, 3oS (rev), 7oC, Death (rev), World
I sense that one of you is slow and methodical while the other is more wild and spontaneous, so there may be somewhat of a challenge to find a pace that works for both of you. However, despite your differences, you both will bond over your mutual desire to explore each other’s deepest sexual desires and naughty kinks.
Here, I see lots of foreplay, dirty talk, sex toys, bondage, mutual masterbation and roleplay. One person may enjoy sitting back and watching the other person dance or your partner might want you to dress up in lingerie and give them a lap dance until they c*m. Once you’re in the bedroom, you will both take turns being in control and bringing the other one to orgasm over and over again, no matter how long it takes.
Pile 3, feel free to express yourselves here without any need for impressing or proving anything to anyone. You will both come to each other as you are, ready to indulge in unbridled pleasure and release. With others, one or both of you may have felt they had to hold back in fear of being judged or laughed at, but with this person, you will be able to explore every fantasy in the comfort of each other’s arms. You will not only feel liberated and unrestricted, but also receive support and care on every level. Some of you may feel hesitant about exploring this connection at first, but there's no need to fear anything other than fear itself. Don't miss out on a wonderful experience that could come your way.
Channelled Song: Sex with Me by Rihanna
Pile 4
Empress (rev), KnoS (rev), 8oS, Lovers, QoS, 3oR, 4oS, 5oR, 6oC,7oF, 4oF, WoF, HM, Justice (rev), AoS, AoF
Pile 4, your next sexual encounter will most likely be with someone from the past. It's possible that you'll reconnect with someone you once deeply loved but had to walk away from because they couldn't commit. You got tired of being the only one putting effort into the relationship, so you withdrew your energy. Now, this person is feeling left out in the cold by you. They used to enjoy all the attention and affection you gave them, but now they realize that their player tactics and tired lies no longer work on you like before. They're finally seeing that you've caught onto their game.
Anyway, this person might suggest going on a vacation or a quick escape together, using the opportunity to mend things between you two. They'll want to share their feelings and set the mood with passionate sex, but you won't be as interested as they are. You'll still have a good time and enjoy yourself sexually, but if they bring up getting back together or taking things further, you will reject them and make it clear that you don't see a future with them anymore. You'll treat them like they deserve to be treated and then move on to the next person who catches your eye. You’ll feel like it’s what they deserve for how they treated you in the past and you won’t gaf how they feel about it now.

[Closet Secrets]
Chapter 9 : Christmas Surprise
You can read my full work here on AO3.
---
They all began heading in, wet and tired, but happy. Surprisingly Starfire was just finishing up with dinner, Jason was helping to get things to the table.
“All of you do the drying off and ready for the family dinner!” she called.
Dick did a quick drying session. He didn’t want to take the time for an actual change of clothes. All he wanted was to catch hold of Raven and pull her into an empty bedroom, hopefully for a lot more than just a talk. Unfortunately, Bumblebee had dragged her away up to her room before he could come near her. All the Titans were here for Christmas.
How the bloody hell she knows exactly how to take advantage of his weak points? He was achingly turned on and had no idea if she meant anything by it or if she had just been that determined to win the game they were playing. The girl had a competitive streak when it comes to this, but surely she wouldn’t have moved against him that way if she hadn’t been interested in more. Would she?
Dammit. She was so much gorgeous and Dick had just never got enough time to give her from past few days. She was insanely intelligent, a complete bookworm, and she was absolutely beautiful. That was the extent of his knowledge. Until he and her started hooking up behind Starfire's back a year ago.
He groaned quietly, thinking about earlier. Her lips and tongue had been driving him wild. The feel of her curves pushed up against him both by their lovely hug at the beginning and then with her under him in the snow. The heat between them should have melted all the snow around them. But maybe it hadn’t made her so hot? Fuck, what if he was the only one losing his mind over this?
Dick was jarred out of his thoughts by his wife calling them all to Christmas Eve dinner. Perhaps he could observe Raven while they ate and get a feel for how she felt toward him. He was good at reading people, he was their leader after all. He headed for the kitchen and was pleased that he managed to sit down directly across from her, where she was squeezed between Aqualad and Roy. Gar was next to Dick, intent on catching up while he had the chance.
The mood around the table was uproarious as always, conversations loud and often interrupted. There was much teasing and laughter. Dick joined in some, of course, but he mostly let it wash over him. He also did his best to watch the girl across the table from him without getting caught. Once, her eyes met his, he let himself stare a moment too long. He felt the blush sweep over him as he darted his eyes away to act interested in whatever Gar was talking about. Usually he hung on changling's words, even now, but today he just couldn’t bring himself to listen properly.
Raven was busy laughing and talking with Karen and Jinx. She clearly understood the dynamics of the Titans table well, as she also jumped seamlessly in and out of the conversation with Gar and sometimes with Aqualad. Dick was brought back from his observation of her by Gar clearing his throat next to him.
“So, tell me how things are going with those new recruits,” he led in, encouraging Dick to participate in conversation.
He was halfway through a story about switching new members from one to another when he felt something touch his leg and move lightly upward. He shifted, thinking someone had touched him by accident.
Vic was laughing at the way Gar had reacted to that new found information. “How long did it take them to stop fighting and actually work as a team?”
That started a whole new story, but only moments passed before he felt something again. This time it was very obvious that it was there on purpose. Toes stroked the inside of his knees, moving closer to his body with firm pressure. Dick’s words faltered and the foot stopped moving, but rested on his thigh. He glanced across the table, his eyes wide. Raven was deeply engaged in a conversation with Starfire about Glark-knof, whatever that was. She didn’t seem to be aware that he was looking at her. She certainly didn’t look like she had her foot in his lap.
Roy nudged him, “Dick? You were saying the Justice League didn’t like the way they were behaving?”
“Oh. Yeah,” Dick replied, taking a deep breath and launching back into the story. The foot was moving again within seconds. His eyes flickered to Raven, but she was paying no attention to him, arguing down the table with Wally about his manners. But it had to be her; he knew, no one was bold enough like her. Dick’s cock was growing rapidly as the foot inched closer.
When the contact was made, he sucked in air through his teeth and dropped his napkin on the floor. As he bent to pick it up, he could confirm the dainty foot was hers. Seeing it rubbing against him – because she definitely didn’t stop just because he was looking – only made him harder. He scooted his chair in closer to the table as he straightened, giving her better access. He looked back over at her, but she was now talking to Karen about something Ministry related. Dick couldn’t focus enough to tell what. Her toes began to explore, roving up and down his hard length.
He knew his face had to be red. That no one had commented yet in this group of busybodies was a bloody miracle. Dick was conflicted. He certainly didn’t want her to stop, but was sure someone would notice. He couldn’t think or engage with anyone. Gar was saying something to him, wanting him to finish his story perhaps. Dick couldn’t remember what kind of talk he had been talking about much less the specific story he had been in the middle of. Fuck. Wasn’t that little bookworm supposed to be wait till everyone settled down? He was sure he remembered him saying that to her yesterday.
Now he had to bite back his own whining. If they hadn’t been surrounded by his friends and family, Dick would have begged her to come straddle his lap. Immediately, before he came in his pants. Oh fuck. He was going to cum in his pants, In the middle of Christmas dinner. Short of pushing her foot off him, there was no avoiding it. Her heel was resting against the bottom of his shaft, her whole foot applying pressure to the length while her toes wriggled around the head, pushing and squeezing. He couldn’t say that foot play was something he was into usually, but the danger of being caught and just the pure shock of it had him on the edge. He absolutely didn’t want to push her away.
“Dick?” she said his name as a question and he realized it wasn’t the first time she had said it. Vic was looking rather exasperated beside him. Raven quirked an eyebrow at him. “You seem to be thinking pretty hard,” she practically purred.
“Yeah, it’s.. just, I’ve just been so busy at the training lately,” he managed to get out without gasping. Her foot was moving faster. “Haven’t had time for much else lately and..” This time he couldn’t hide his ragged breathing. Fuck, he was about to explode and he had never been quiet about it in his life.
She fucking knew that.
“She was asking, if you remember the way that one trainee moaned when he fell,” Barbara who just stepped into the kitchen said seriously, giving him an odd look. “Of course Starfire probably won’t appreciate it much if you go all training mode on them.”
Sweet fuck she was giving him a way to let go. Barbara was right that Starfire would be irritated, but he really couldn’t help it. He was seconds from release. “Yeah, he moaned like…” and he let out a moan as he came so hard it would have shot over the table if he hadn’t been fully clothed.
“Husband Dick!” his Starfire said, clutching her heart, “That's sound not good, is he alright?”
Dick couldn’t breathe well enough yet to answer. Her foot was still in his lap, resting comfortably against his now-spent dick.
“Come now, Star,” Gar said, “He spends all his time with Batman. That’s how he talks now.” Everyone laughed.
“It’s my fault really, Gar,” Raven said sweetly. “I was asking him he remembers the way he moaned, it was rather funny.”
Starfire nodded and smiled, “Friend Raven, I must admit it was funny but I found it painful too.” she directed the last back to him, only slightly worried.
“Yeah, Star,” he managed, cheeks burning.
He heard Jason muttered next to him. “You might want to clean yourself before you leave the table.”
Dick felt his eyes go round as he looked over at Jason. He took the advice, taking a napkin to wipe away all evidence of the encounter, but he couldn’t figure out what in the world to say.
“Bet you don't want your wife to see right?,” Jason said whispering, not holding back a smirk. Had that asshole knew what was going on the whole time? He tried to recount the conversation but realized he hadn’t been paying enough attention to it in the moment to be able to tell if he had known at the time.
Dick looked up to see how embarrassed Raven was, but she was making eye contact with Jason and her eyes were hungry with a playful smirk on her lips. Her indigo eyes turned to meet his and he felt himself twitching back to life already.
He blushed even harder as he quietly said, “You better keep your mouth shut todd.”
Her eyes sparkled for a moment. She lifted her glass and tilted it at him. “To new experiences this Christmas.”
Did that mean this wasn’t the last new encounter they were going to have today? God, he wanted to touch her. Her foot left his lap, toes running along his hardening cock as she pulled away. Dick felt bereft, a sudden fear that she was done with him shooting through his consciousness. She turned away, engaging back in conversation with Jinx as though Dick weren’t sitting there still trying to remember how to breathe normally.
“So,” Jason said conversationally, “think you can focus enough now to finish that story huh, Dickie boy?”
---
Raven was quite pleased with herself. Touching Dick under the table, when he couldn’t react but couldn’t hold back, had been so powerful. She definitely had his attention. She felt his eyes following her wherever she went. It had become a game to sneak away from him and watch as he half-panicked that she might have left. She wasn’t usually this cruel to men she was interested in. Of course, she wasn’t always so confident with men she was interested in either.
Something about Dick, though…. He was wild and worldly, mischievous and well-mannered, intelligent and physically fit. He was actually everything she would want in an actual partner, but with his dumb wife as his life partner, she could be very happy with a fun physical arrangement instead. Maybe it was the risk level that was making her so bold.
Raven smirked, to her surprise Jason knew what was happening under the table, but interestingly, he just glanced at her and smirked,
And his smirk definitely caught her interest...
She was on her way into the sitting room with her tea from the kitchen when she felt a strong arm snatch her around the waist. She looked up into Dick’s eyes. There was so much heat in them she was surprised there wasn’t actual smoke. Now, however, irritation and bewilderment flashed through and distracted him as he tugged at her, trying to move the two of them out of the doorway.
“Sorry, bird boy,” Karen laughed, appearing suddenly, clearly not sorry at all. “It appears you have been caught by our classic Christmas decor product – Roving Mistletoe. Nothing for it, hun. You’ll need to give the lady a kiss.”
“An impressive one, I imagine,” Jinx added, not so innocently, who was standing beside her. “It senses interest.”
They both blushed. Raven knew they had plenty of interest, but she might have preferred not to explore it when their entire friend circle was present in the house. Then again, she didn’t really have room to complain. That thought nearly made her giggle until she looked up into Dick’s smouldering eyes and her breath caught.
He leaned down, hands gripping her waist, and brought his lips gently to hers. She could feel him shaking and realized she was, too. It felt so good to touch him, but holding back to keep from making a scene was taking all her willpower. She wanted to climb the man like a tree. Instead, he let her go after a moment, the kiss barely even including a brush of their tongues.
They still couldn’t move. Karen and Jinx were leaning on each other with laughter. “So sorry. That kiss didn’t match your interest.” Jinx’s tone was suggestive.
Karen snorted. “We may need to remove the innocents if their kiss has to match that.”
From the nods around the room, the intensity between them had been noticeable. Only Starfire who was there with Karen and Jinx seemed genuinely bewildered. “Husband Dick and Friend Raven!?” she squawked. “What?”
“It's a tradition Star” Dick said.
Starfire smiled. “It’s really quite late. I think we should head to the bed. Please friend Karen and friend Jinx make yourself home.”
There was grumbling – both about going to bed so early and missing the show. Raven sunk her heated face into Dick’s chest as soon as his wife left. She was very ready for alone time with him, but a bit mortified the entire house was there. Karen herded the three of them up to the stairs. “Have fun!” Jinx teased called to the two of them before they heard her bedroom door close.
Dick’s chest rumbled with laughter against her cheek. “You know she’s planning something now,” he groaned. “This is your fault,” he added playfully.
“I hadn’t heard you complaining.”
“Oh, I’m not.” His voice was husky already, eyes dark and hooded.
Before Raven could think up a clever response, he was moving his lips toward her and she leaned up and crashed their lips together and tried to devour one another. Their tongues danced and rolled around each other while he nipped and sucked at her lower lip. They nearly fell when the mistletoe released its hold, Dick catching them and moving her against the wall for support.
He leaned back for just a moment. Whispering a silencing spell, she wordlessly cast the contraceptive spell too. They were both gasping for air as they looked at each other.
“Are we really doing this right here?” he asked.
“It’s not like anyone in the house will know what we’re up to,” she giggled. “We even have your dumb wife’s blessing.”
He gave her a full laugh. “Somehow I don’t think shagging under the mistletoe in the doorway was quite what she had in mind.”
“Fortunately, she’s not out here to decide what we’re going to do,” she purred.
“As I recall,” he rumbled, “Opinion wasn’t really considered when they were all around anyway.”
In the dark of the hallway, he could see her blush slightly as she grinned. “I thought it might get your attention.”
“Oh, you already had my attention by then, Raven.”
“Well, a nice bit of insurance then,” she said, “To be sure I kept it.”
He gave her a lopsided smile that melted something inside her. “I don’t think I’ll ever look at you with less than rapt attention again. But, I’m not sure you have a reason yet to pay attention to me.”
“I’ve always,” Raven paused, realizing she had almost revealed far more about her interest in him over the last year than she had meant to, “Found those muscles worthy of attention.”
She wasn’t sure what the momentary flash in his eyes meant, but his easy laugh soothed away her questions. “I’m glad you enjoy looking, but I want your attention on what I can do to you, too.”
Raven liked the sound of that. Even more, she liked the feel of his soft curls as she ran her fingers through them and leaned in to kiss him again. He gave back willingly, bringing his lips hard against hers. She only gave a tiny grunt of complaint when he pulled her left hand away from his hair and gently pressed it up against the doorway above her head.
“What?” she gasped suddenly as she realized that her hand was stuck there.
“Calm yourself,” he soothed, “You’re going to like this.” His voice was warm and confident.
“What if I don’t?”
“I will stop any time you want me to, no questions asked, beautiful.” He kissed her slowly. When they broke apart, Raven felt like there was a puddle between her legs. “But give me a chance to knock you off your feet.” He paused and waited until she nodded before moving her right hand to the other side of the door, sticking it above her so that her arms were spread across the doorway.
Dick stepped back and looked up and down her body appraisingly. “You have entirely too much on,” he commented. His fingers were steady as he began unbuttoning her blouse, his calloused fingers making her shiver as they brushed inside each newly opened section. He was so gentle as he came to the bottom of the shirt, the open strip revealing her entire torso, her breasts straining the lacy bra she was wearing.
“Lacy black, I like it,” he said with a smile. “But it’s really unnecessary. Raven.” Her bra was gone, leaving her full breasts on display, the nipples dark and hard with her arousal.
Raven gasped. “That was my favorite bra, you asshole!”
“I’ll buy you another one. Later.”
She tried to look irritated with him, but then his mouth was on her and she couldn’t focus enough to pretend. Dick started at her neck, nudging her shirt further off her shoulders, but still hanging there, as he went. His lips sucked at her, his teeth grazing her skin. When she shuddered and squealed breathily, he gave a dark laugh.
“Seems this is a distracting spot for you, too, hmmm,” he whispered. Between nibbles mumbled the words, “How did...you...know...my neck...is...my...weakness?”
“We have been having sex for a while now Dick.” Raven gasped as he swirled his tongue on her pulse point, “I know what my man likes, Was worth though. I wanted to..to taste you.”
“Oh, you can taste me as much as you want, but not until I’ve gotten my fill of tasting you.” He had raised up to stare into her eyes as his hands reached out and carefully weighed her breast in each hand, running fingers around and around toward her nipples. When he actually brushed a thumb over each, Raven keened.
“Fuck, I really love it when you are like this,” he whispered into her ear, then started moving his mouth down toward her breasts.
Raven meant to reply, but then he was sucking on one nipple and twisting the other and her brain had turned to mush. She didn’t know how long he spent laving, sucking, and nipping at her breasts, switching sides and driving her insane. She wanted to run her fingers through his hair, yank him up by it and return the favors he was paying her. Instead, she was still firmly stuck in place and, honestly, loving how much that heightened the whole experience.
He had moved onto his knees when he looked up at her, fire in his eyes. “Raven?”
“Yes?” she whimpered.
“Would you like me to take off your jeans?”
“Right here?”
“I think we already discussed why it’s perfectly reasonable to enjoy our night right here in the doorway.” He gave her an amused but heated look.
“Azar, yes,” she finally determined.
He smirked as he unfastened her jeans and shimmied them down her legs, tossing them aside. Now his face was right in front of her center, with only her soaked panties between them. He leaned forward and breathed her in, making Raven shudder just from his proximity to the area. A finger slowly pressed between her folds through the fabric, drawing along toward her apex. “Do you know how wet these panties are?” he asked, his voice huskier than she had ever heard it before.
She tried to answer, but Dick chose that moment to nuzzle into her sex, his nose brushing over her clit, his warm breath sending a shiver of bliss through her. She cried out, a sharp gasping sound as he touched her there. Their eyes met as he teased his tongue around the bundle of nerves at her center, then very gently put his teeth on her nub. Raven could barely breathe, the moment was so intense.
“I think this might feel even more amazing without the soaked panties,” he said tauntingly.
“Yes, Dick,” she told him. “Please.”
“Please what, Raven?” he mumbled, rubbing into her.
“Please take my panties off. I want.. I want to feel you against my skin.”
He gave her a purely sinful smile. “As the lady commands,” he said, then slid a hand under the bands on her hips, suddenly ripping them to pieces.
Raven didn’t have time to complain before her legs were on his shoulders and his face was buried in her. His tongue was everywhere and she was crying out so loudly she wondered if one silencing spell had been enough. She whimpered when he pulled away from her just as she had been building toward a climax.
“How would you feel if our friends walked in right now?” he asked.
She knew her eyes were wide as they flicked around the dark room beyond. He chuckled at her frenzied expression. “Just wanted to remind you how panicky it can feel to think you might let go in front of a room full of people. I had fun, but it was a little terrifying.”
A shaky laugh escaped her. “Says the guy who is our leader.” After a pause she added, “I’m sorry, Dick. I guess I deserve that moment of panic.” Then she moaned as he ran a finger up through her slit.
“Of course, if this is any indication, maybe you like the idea of being caught more than you’re letting on.” She just whimpered without voicing an answer. He quirked an eyebrow at her and said, “I’ll keep that in mind for the future.”
Then his finger was inside her, quickly followed by a second, the calloused surface stimulating her in just the right way as he sucked at her clit. She was screaming his name when she came harder than she ever had before. He kept laving at her, now bending his fingers to brush her g-spot over and over and kept her orgasm going until she was too sensitive and had to beg him to stop.
“Of course, Raven,” he responded, moving to stand beside her as he released her hands from where they had been stuck. She slid bonelessly into his arms.
Dick kissed her neck, laughing every time her body twitched with the aftereffects of her intense orgasms. Finally, she had recovered enough to kiss him back, turned on even more by the taste of herself on his tongue. She pulled her legs up to wrap around his waist.
“Feeling eager?” he laughed. His hands slid her blouse off her shoulders to pool on the floor as his mouth ran along her neck and down to her breast.
“Yes!” She said, her voice barely more than a whisper. “Fuck me now, Dick.”
“Anything the lady wants,” he said with a smile, surprising her by almost perfectly lining them up and thrusting in without using his hands. Raven made a strangled sound, halfway between sweet pain and intense pleasure as he filled her completely. He was perfect. Dick paused before moving out.
“Am I hurting you, babe?”
“Deliciously,” she responded, “Now move. Fast and hard. Please!”
He didn’t need further encouragement. He slipped a hand between them as he began driving her into the wall with each snap of his hips. His thumb found her clit again and circled it. Raven moaned. “Dick, I’m going to cum again if you keep that up.”
“Thank Fuck,” he breathed. “I can’t hold out much longer. You’re so fucking tight.”
“Even after dinner?” she asked awed.
His affirmation that he was so close again already pushed her over the edge into another intense, screaming orgasm. He followed almost immediately, kissing hungrily along her neck as he moaned her name over and over and his cock spurted inside her. Filling her womb with his warm and delicious cum.
For long moments, he kept her pressed into the doorway, leaning against her as they both caught their breath. Then the two of them looked around at their clothes on the floor and the mistletoe above their heads and laughed.
“This was not how I expected my night to go,” he admitted, “but it has far exceeded my expectations.”
“I’m not sure what the sleeping arrangements here are, but I know how your bitch wife feels about you two sleeping together. Would you like me to teleport us back to my flat for tonight? I have quite a few more expectations I would like to exceed before morning,” Raven told him.
“I heard you girls are having a sleepover,” he replied, “I would hate to take that opportunity away from you.” He looked down far more disappointed than Raven would have expected and added, “And nothing would make me happier than sleeping next to you tonight….eventually.”
Raven blushed unexpectedly as they gathered their clothes in between touching and kissing. “Say you love me,” Dick said between kisses, She grazed his neck with her lips just before saying, “I love you Dick.”
“I love you too, Raven.”
Raven smiled as she stepped into her room, thinking how very grateful she was to have chosen that particular method of teasing earlier.
Merry Christmas indeed.

Επισπεύδει την αλλαγή CEO η Commerzbank
Tumblr media
Τη διαδικασία αντικατάστασης του CEO επισπεύδει η Commerzbank υπό την πίεση της δυναμικής επιθετικής εξαγοράς που δημιουργούν οι κινήσεις της Unicredit. Η επιλογή CEO θα κρίνει σε μεγάλο βαθμό το μέλλον της Commerzbank, καθώς η εταιρία βρίσκεται υπό πίεση από τον Αντρεα Ορτσέλ της Unicredit, ενώ ο Manfred Knof έχει δηλώσει την πρόθεσή του να μην ανανεώσει τη θητεία του στο τέλος του 2025 όταν και λήξει. Μέχρι στιγμής, η Οικονομική Διευθύντρια Bettina Orlopp παραμένει το φαβορί για τη διαδοχή του Knof, αν και η τράπεζα θα εξετάσει και εξωτερικούς υποψηφίους με τη βοήθεια της Egon Zehnder, σύμφωνα με πηγές που γνωρίζουν το ζήτημα. Αν και δεν έχει οριστεί νέα ημερομηνία για τον διάδοχο, ο Ιανουάριος θεωρείται μία πιθανότητα. Οι εκπρόσωποι της Commerzbank και της Egon Zehnder αρνήθηκαν να σχολιάσουν. Η Egon Zhender κάνει παιχνίδι Η απόφαση να επιταχυνθεί η αναζήτηση συνδέεται με την κίνηση της UniCredit, η οποία αυτόν τον μήνα αποκάλυψε ότι απέκτησε μερίδιο 9% στην Commerzbank και άφησε να εννοηθεί ότι μπορεί να επιδιώξει συνομιλίες. Ο Knof ανακοίνωσε, λίγο πριν δημοσιοποιηθεί η αγορά, ότι δεν θα επιδιώξει άλλη θητεία όταν λήξει το συμβόλαιό του στο τέλος του επόμενου έτους. Η εκτελεστική επιτροπή της Commerzbank εξετάζει τις επιλογές της για το πώς θα απαντήσει, συμπεριλαμβανομένης και μιας πιθανής στρατηγικής άμυνας, ανέφερε το Bloomberg. Η γερμανική εφημερίδα Handelsblatt ανέφερε την Τρίτη ότι η Commerzbank εξετάζει την επιτάχυνση της διαδικασίας διαδοχής. Ο Knof τερμάτισε τη στροφή της Commerzbank στα παραδοσιακά καταστήματα και επένδυσε χρήματα στις ψηφιακές υπηρεσίες. Η στρατηγική του αναδιάρθρωσης ενισχύθηκε από την αύξηση των επιτοκίων της Ευρωπαϊκής Κεντρικής Τράπεζας, που αύξησε την κερδοφορία σε όλη τη βιομηχανία τραπεζών. Η προσέγγιση της UniCredit θα μπορούσε να δυσκολέψει την αναζήτηση υποψηφίων για την κορυφαία θέση στην Commerzbank. Οι επενδυτές έχουν ήδη εκφράσει υποστήριξη στην Orlopp, η οποία παρακάμφθηκε για τον ρόλο πριν από τέσσερα χρόνια. «Η Commerzbank έχει αποδυναμωθεί από την επικείμενη αλλαγή Διευθύνοντος Συμβούλου σε αυτήν την κρίσιμη φάση», δήλωσε ο Andreas Thomae, διαχειριστής κεφαλαίων στην DekaBank. «Το εποπτικό συμβούλιο πρέπει τώρα να δημιουργήσει γρήγορα σαφήνεια και να ανακοινώσει ποιος θα ηγηθεί της τράπεζας στο μέλλον. Η Bettina Orlopp είναι σίγουρα μια πιθανή υποψήφια.» Read the full article

Commerzbank to appoint Orlopp CFO in charge of UniCredit talks
Commerzbank is willing to put CFO Bettina Orlopp in charge of talks with UniCredit ahead of a meeting of the German bank’s supervisory board, according to Reuters.
Italy’s UniCredit recently bought a 9 per cent stake in Commerzbank after expressing interest in merging the two banks, with next week’s meeting paving the way for talks between the two countries.
Commerzbank management remains opposed to a takeover by the Italian creditor, a source revealed. Meanwhile, the bank’s chief executive Manfred Knof announced he would step down as CEO at the end of 2025, just hours before UniCredit announced its stake.
With more than 25,000 business customers, nearly a third of Germany’s foreign trade payments and more than 42,000 employees, Commerzbank represents the backbone of the German economy.
UniCredit first approached Berlin to declare its interest in taking over Commerzbank in 2017, and was again considering a rival bid for the German lender in 2019 when Commerzbank was discussing a possible merger with Deutsche Bank.
When UniCredit CEO Andrea Orcel returned this month to buy the stake, it took German government officials off guard. According to the source, Commerzbank began persuading the government not to sell the remaining 12 per cent stake to avoid a full takeover by UniCredit.
As a result, government officials postponed a further sale of the state’s remaining stake.
The takeover discussions are unfolding at a challenging time as Germany’s coalition government prepares for national elections next year. The recent strong successes of the national-oriented Alternative for Germany (AfD) and the Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance (BSW) put pressure on the three-party government, including the FDP party, which heads the finance ministry responsible for the stake sale.
