A Patreon request for rome.and.stuff (Instagram) - Pachyrhinosaurus perotorum… that I went a bit overboard with lol. I’ve been waiting for an excuse to draw my favorite ceratopsian, and to digitally adapt my old Pachy marker drawing design.

So! Pachyrhinosaurus! As seen above, there were three known species of Pachyrhinosaurus, living in different locations and eras in Late Cretaceous North America.

The oldest, P. lakustai, was native to the Wapiti Formation of Alberta and British Columbia, Canada. It’s known for the extra spikes it has at the center of its frill.

The slightly younger P. canadensis was native to the lower Horseshoe Canyon Formation and the St. Mary River Formation of Alberta and northwestern Montana. It was the largest of the three.

The youngest, P. perotorum, was native to the Prince Creek Formation of Alaska. As this ceratopsid seemingly stayed put during the long, dark, cold Alaskan Winters, it likely had adaptations for keeping warm.

The depiction of a “woolly” Pachyrhinosaurus was first popularized by Mark Witton as a speculative work, but the trope has prevailed. While many paleontologists find a heavy feather covering on a centrosaurine to be highly unlikely, and maintain that the animal’s size and homeothermy would have kept it warm enough, we still have no skin impressions to suggest that P. perotorum was fully scaly. So a feather coating is not completely out of the question (though it is unlikely). Still, I love the look of a woolly Pachyrhinosaurus and how it challenges our previous conceptions of non-avian dinosaurs. Stranger things exist in nature. I had to include a “woolly” option, especially since I already use the guy as my avatar on my paleo Instagram account, SaritaPaleo.

Pachyrhinosaurus was particularly unique in that it seemingly traded off something that had previously worked for other ceratopsians, horns, for a large nasal boss instead. For Pachyrhinosaurus, a battering ram worked better than a sword.

It was herbivorous, using its strong cheek teeth to chew tough, fibrous plants. Perhaps during the dark and cold Winters, P. perotorum would have also dug for roots or even scavenged carcasses. At any rate, from observations of their unusually conspicuous growth banding, it appears growth for P. perotorum would have been stunted during the harsh Winter, but was extremely rapid in the warmer months, an adaptation for the Alaskan climate.

The tundra of the Prince Creek Formation housed a surprising amount of diversity. Pachyrhinosaurus perotorum would have lived alongside smaller ceratopsians like Leptoceratopsids, as well as other ornithischians like the pachycephalosaurine Alaskacephale and the hadrosaurid Edmontosaurus. Theropods such as Dromaeosaurus and Saurornitholestes, as well as a yet unidentified giant Troodontid, lived here as well. P. perotorum’s main predator would have been the tyrannosaur Nanuqsaurus. Small mammals were also somewhat common here, such as Cimolodon, Gypsonictops, Sikuomys, Unnuakomys, and an indeterminate marsupial.

(Btw, the request tier for Patreon starts at only $5 a month. 😉 Link is pinned at the top of my blog.)

here's some notes on my recent chsc: what you're missing

-since i published as needed as last year's snow in january, i've been busy trying to graduate and not had any time to read or write or even really think about genshin. then i visited our chsc server friends for a few days beginning of june and i came back and haven't stopped writing since

-on the drive up me and taho spent most of the two hours yapping about chsc, and it was lovely but also extremely extremely strange for me to hear someone praise my writing irl. im genuinely just stumbling through word documents like a bow-legged fawn so

-starting back up with writing this summer i started working things out on physical paper in a notebook. its actually been really fun/feels different than notes app/sticky note-ing it. i still did use sticky notes for puzzling out intricacies of the smut tho (and then proceeded to pretty much use none of it) i'll attach a pic of my notes here for fun even though its slightly horrifying to do

-like most of my fics ive had this one waiting in the wings for a while, basic premise though was just 'chsc first time happens after scara backhands childe in front of people and childe gets very horny about that'. wrote it over about two weeks, fight scene fucked me up until i just locked in and wrote all of it at once at 2am. spent a while rearranging the smut then sent it to pachi to beta, forced myself not to look at it during those days, got it back and made isolated edits and was too embarrassed to read the smut i wrote 2 weeks ago again so i just posted it. hope its ok

-i always always always have trouble with scara during harbinger era. its because im a chronic overexplainer/overjustifier for characters getting together. for his actions during that time i lean on the little tiny bit we ever saw of it and that's mostly abrasiveness... but you gotta pull on how wanderer acts/ his backstory a bit too to like really see where hes coming from at that point in the story. halfway thru writing i realized he wouldnt act the way i was imagining him acting, had to fix that, then had to tweak the rest of the fic

-basically; i think childe would accept that he has a thing for scaramouche without too much thought. he's into mean people who're older than him + match his freak. he goes towards what makes him feel good. scara on the other hand i think... he immediately justifies the pull he feels as 'childe's stupid enough that i can use him'/'he worships me without being told'. this is a guilty pleasure for both of them until they realize its not (which is what i hoped to set up by beginning it with their abyss connections-- they're alike from the very beginning and they're both being used in different ways) <- i talked to pachi some in the middle of writing and it helped me puzzle out what chsc would be feelin a bit more. ty dr pachi phd in childe characterization

-had to have like multiple tabs open of bible's rgg pwp fics as emotional support. i filtered fics tagged 'cunniligus' in my bookmarks more than once. i was floundering. 90% of what i write or consider writing is E rated but i don't actually get much fulfillment out of describing smut. however i kind of tried really hard here bc i know thats what 99% of people are reading this for and even though i hate when i have to write the words scaramouche and clit directly next to each other i ended up pretty proud of the smut here.

random favorite bit:

“Well, it—” Childe's hips buck up into Scaramouche's fist. With a strained expression across his face and in a tone that sounds a little too genuine, he says, “feels kinda... different, since it's you." It's as bold-faced and earnest as anything else he's heard Childe say. But it's a sort of confirmation that Scaramouche was hoping to avoid—whilst simultaneously enjoying dancing around it. Stupid to give him this much leeway, this much permission, and not expect the guy who does everything else with the ruthlessness and loyalty of a hunting dog not to extend that to this.

i liked this bc i felt like i managed to nail down scara realizing he might've bit off more than he can chew without disrupting the smut. and childe + dog metaphor + shaky earnest confessions + L + ratio

-my penchant for having characters write letters in fic returns (almost as bad as my thing with inserting flashbacks in the middle of stuff) (i like first person but i dont like it in fic so this is the only way i can do it)

-looped teenage dirtbag (title + captured how i was trying to play childe here) (friend told me recently the singer of wheatus went to hs around where we grew up?), against the kitchen floor by will wood (taho's doing), some high energy 2000s stuff while revising the fight scene, my age gap oriented pl + will stetsons rabbit hole cover during the smut

i'll leave whoever reads this with a teenage dirtbag induced write-up i did to try and work out why i ended up liking the title i chose so much:

what you're missing-- what you're letting pass you by. what you don't have by not looking at me, what you'll want back in the future. what you don't have by not having me. what you've been trying to find, to grasp. what you didn't know you were missing.

Tri-Arame: Train Ride at Night

Primary Pairing Trio: YuuAyuNana Words: 571 Rating: G Time Frame: Sometime post college Prompt: Train

---------

Author's Note: Bonus 2nd entry for the 12th

Summary: Nana and her girlfriends return from a convention

---------

Pachi pachi. Pachi pachi. Pachi pachi.

The rhythmic clicks and clacks of the train on its tracks sounded like a lullaby gently urging Nana to sleep.

Pachi pachi. Pachi pachi. Pachi pachi.

The warmth of her girlfriends on either side of her greatly enhanced the appeal of sleep.

Pachi pachi. Pachi pachi. Pachi pachi.

Yuu was already out, leaning on Nana, arm around hers and looking adorably peaceful. Ayumu, on Nana’s other side, was quietly reading a light novel they had picked up at the convention. Nana and Yuu had already pounded through it, as it was not only the first book of a new series from a beloved author, but also a special, early print, con exclusive, signed copy. Ayumu was taking her turn now and Nana couldn’t wait to talk about the story with her girlfriends once she was done.

Pachi pachi. Pachi pachi. Pachi pachi.

Nana felt a yawn escape her. What a wonderful weekend. She had definitely gone all out at the convention. She’d never been to KYOMAF before, having historically stuck to local venues in Tokyo. There were a lot of similarities with the local cons, really the differences Nana had noted were more between those run by big name brands and those run by fans, and less so about the geographic location. Still, making a short vacation out of the event had been fun.

Pachi pachi. Pachi pachi. Pachi pachi.

Nana had spent the entire weekend in Nana-mode to obscure her identity as a professional idol and allow her to focus more on enjoying the convention. Sure, she had been recognized by a few fans. Her singing voice during karaoke had ended up giving her away, even though she had stuck to anime songs and avoided those from her idol discography. Thankfully Ayumu and Yuu were on top of things and had quietly convinced the fans not to make a scene and found a secluded area where a few quick autographs could be given.

Pachi pachi. Pachi pachi. Pachi pachi.

And the cosplayers. Nana had posed with dozens of amazing cosplayers with dozens of pictures each.

Pachi pachi. Pachi pachi. Pachi pachi.

And the mangaka. Nana had finally been able to meet a few of her favorites. And obtained signatures.

And the directors. And the producers. And…

Nana yawned again.

Pachi pachi. Pachi pachi. Pachi pachi.

“Eh?” Nana uttered as her glasses were removed from her face.

“You can go ahead and take a nap, Nana-chan.” Ayumu murmured, her voice barely loud enough to be heard above the sounds of the train.

“But, I…” Nana protested. “I took tomorrow off so I can relax and decompress.”

Ayumu laughed lightly. “Yes, but if I know Nana-chan, you’ll end up spending the day reading and watching everything you bought instead of actually relaxing.”

Ayumu was probably right on that point.

“There’s no reason to stay awake now.” Ayumu continued. “We’ve still got a good hour before we arrive.”

Nana was about to say something about staying awake to keep Ayumu company or something when the other girl shifted and slid her arm around her and Yuu. A gentle pull and Nana found her head on Ayumu’s shoulder. Immediately, her eyelids felt heavier.

Pachi pachi. Pachi pachi. Pachi pachi.

Ayumu planted a gentle kiss atop Nana’s head.

Pachi pachi. Pachi pachi. Pachi pachi.

There was no fighting it now. Nana’s eyes closed and she slipped off to sleep.

---------

Author's Note Continued: I had fun writing this one. Pachi pachi. I love onomatopoeia, and I love looking it up for other languages. And I love writing soft and fluffy scenes for my flagship girls.

Stylish Artificial Rings Online At The Best Prices

Women want to wear many kinds of rings to look beautiful and elegant each day. Whatever dress we wear, if we don’t wear any complementing jewelry, it gives an incomplete feel. Matching jewelry is very important to look perfect; hence, wearing a large ring or hand accessories also can be appealing as well as classy.

We all know that artificial rings are classic, versatile pieces that we can get at the cheapest to the highest rates as per our budget, and many women love to wear diamond rings as this is an evergreen piece.

At the moment of selection, we need to determine which ring is the most timeless and stunning. If we want to shop online, we need to know which are the Best Jewelry Websites Online.

One thing that I always keep in mind is that the ring should be cared for properly and stored appropriately when it is not being worn, to be sure it is always in outstanding condition no matter how many days we have stored it and ready to be a beautiful accent for any occasion.

The best rings for women are the ones that make a person feel as happy as possible, with beautiful designs and precious gemstones.

There are various ring patterns, such as dainty engagement rings and bold statement rings, and there are choices for every budget and for every woman.

In this blog, we have covered the types of rings for women that are both graceful and within your budget. 

Cocktail Ring

In large, vibrant colors, the patterns are eye-catching and often worn for special events or nights out. These rings attract people as they have a very distinctive style, and we can wear them alone so no other rings detract from their beauty because of their large size.

These rings are designed via numerous gemstones like Pachi Kundan Cocktail Ring with beautiful zircon stones embedded in it and without much cost.

Some people called them statement rings because of their striking appearance and gemstones. The most liked cocktail ring in feather design and it is adjustable and easy to wear.

Fashion Ring

It is sometimes referred to as costume jewelry because we can wear it according to our outfit pattern, color, or embroidery. A Kundan ring like the Arna Kundan Ring is also considered high-end fashion rings that make a statement and often have many elements.

It uses precious metals and gemstones in flexible designs and sometimes layers in order to cover most of the finger area.

Many people count fashion rings as much as cocktail rings, but fashion rings usually have a more abstract and unique design, while cocktail ring settings are a bit more predictable.

These rings are used more for styling purposes and building a distinct collection of hand accessories online.

These types of rings are mostly ones you can wear with specific outfits but are only sometimes ideal for casual wear.

Vintage Ring

It is considered a luxury due to its antique and vintage diamond style and is rich in history and symbolism.

With different jewelry eras to choose from, such as the wistful romanticism of Victorian rings like the Ambuja Victorian Green Ring and its unique pattern and art design, girls can find something they love.

Its gemstone cuts are prized not only for their beauty but also for their exquisite attention and long-lasting quality. You can even gift rings to your loved ones. 

Engagement Ring

The classic diamond ring is the most preferred engagement ring due to its rich quality and shine, as it represents the purity of love and commitment, which is why they’re ideal for engagement rings or wedding bands that will never go out of style.

From elegant solitaires to elaborate sets such as the Silver Classic Solitaire Ring, they are even used as engagement rings.

We can find so many great variations in diamond ring styles and options for personal expression that carefully and thoughtfully chosen is sure to become a frequently worn one.

Exactly which ring type is selected by any woman will vary depending on her choice and personality towards fashion trends.

Rumors

Another drabble for GinTae one shots (●'◡'●)

Summary: His thoughts went back to the rumors between him and Otae stirring their town. He did not particularly care what anyone thought of him, to be honest. But what about Otae, he knew she heard things too. Should they let them keep talking, or should they put a stop to those rumors?

⁓

There’s a superbug going around making everyone sick and the shogun ordered the people to stay at home and limit mobility. The Yorozuya’s jobs requests had gone down and all they need to do was sit tightly at home. Kagura had been teaching tricks to Sadaharu like throwing bricks at the Shinsengumi when they come patrolling the streets. Gin-san didn’t stop her since he wanted to see them scared shitless.

The times they were in quarantine, he had been drinking liquor and consuming glucose at an alarming rate. All his stash had been downed to the last drop. Kagura had like a year-supply of sukonbu so she had no problem. About twice during the lockdown, Otose brought them nutritional food. He was broke like Madao. He sighed, he slid further on his seat covering his face with a JUMP manga while Kagura showed Sadaharu the pictures of the tax robbers he was supposed to play fetch with. “The difference is Sadaharu will do the throwing, the tax robbers will do the running, aru,” Kagura explained followed by an evil laugh. Sounded just about right for those bastards.

He yawned loudly. He had already memorized all the cracks and the cobwebs on the ceiling of their office and in his room from staring at them all day. Somehow, this quarantine had left him to do some personal reflection since there’s not much to do to keep his mind occupied. Their income was on a new record of an all-time low. Even Otose had stopped harassing him for his rent.

“Good boy Sadaharu,” he heard Kagura praise her giant dog. This was followed by a soft thud with Kagura giving the dog belly rubs.

If Shinpachi-kun was here, they would have heard an earful of his yapping already. Like how it is bad to throw bricks to Shinsengumi officers, “Tax robbers!” he and Kagura would chime in, and then there will be an endless tirade of Megane-kun going on about how they should not call people mean names. He looked up at the ceiling once again. The cobwebs wouldn’t be there if the three of them were here. Plus Sadaharu. And that uncute woman. Heh.

He got up and went to his desk. His eyes scanned the items on the table and rested on a picture frame with four of their goofy faces sun-kissed at the beach, Sadaharu nearly blocked half the picture.

He wondered about how Shinpachi-kun and his sister had been doing. It was time to examine some things he had been pushing to the back of his mind for quite some time now. He remembered it started with him going to bed in his sober moments, all is peaceful and quiet. His previous injury on his torso throbbing a dull ache. Despite the skin looking patched up, his body was never the same after a fight. He remembered being weak and bloody, and Otae’s worried face while she frantically applied pressure to his injury to control the bleeding. She’d been by their side through thick and thin.

He put his arm on the back of his head then laid back on his chair, feet on the table. It’s been quite some time since he’s known Otae. There were many nights he had hung around the club she was working at, his money trickling down his throat while she poured him Don Perignon laughing at all the lame jokes he spurted out. Some nights he just walks her home especially when she had a little too much liquor to drink. Sometimes they even had to go somewhere else when the club had already closed. Or just hanging out in each other’s houses grating on each other’s nerves. He chuckled.

Maybe they hang out too much that’s why there were rumors from different people going about him and Otae comforting each other when they were lonely. Even Sofa-kun was throwing shade at him and Otae when he commented that the only things enjoyable in the pitch-dark are sleep and sex while the scene conveniently panned to him, Otae, and a futon. What does How did that brat know anyway?

He was deep in his thoughts when he was jolted awake with the breaking news. He did not notice Kagura had turned on the tv. The shogun had eased up a little of the restrictions imposed.  Starting tomorrow, citizens can now go out for essential activities and for some recreational activities provided that minimum health standards would be observed.

Wow, after weeks of being cooped up in the house, he can finally stretch his muscles. He knew his first stop would be the Kodokan Dojo. Say some things to rile Pachi-kun. He did miss his incessant nagging.

His thoughts went back to the rumors between him and Otae stirring their town. He did not particularly care what anyone thought of him, to be honest. But what about Otae, he knew she heard things too. Should they let them keep talking, or should they put a stop to those rumors?

He’d been to the Shimura dojo a thousand times but tomorrow is different. He was getting all nervous just thinking about it. Because tomorrow, he was going to ask Otae to really give the people something to talk about.  What would she say if he asked her that they’d make those rumors true?

An Exert from The Plague

Fandom: The Arcana

Characters: Julian Devorak, Fan Apprentice (Celica Nightingale)

Rating: G

Content warnings: brief mentions of medical gross stuff, child death

Notes: Not much you need to know about Celica but I reference my theory post about the red plague in this a bit

(Ao3)

She rapted gently on the wall as she pushed back the curtain.

“Dr. Devorak do you need me to change the patients leeches? You seem… busy.”

He looked up frantically as he grabbed another bucket for the patient he was currently looking at as they retched up more blood. Julian only offered a comforting hand on their back as they awkwardly looked up and waved at their new visitor. The red of their sclera glossy from sickness and the bruised veins around their swollen cheekbones stood out against pale skin.

“Uh, yeah that would be good, if you don’t mind, Dr. Nightingale,” He fished around in his pockets for the key for his leech collection and tossed it at her, which she stumbled to catch, before returning back to his patient.

Closing the curtain again to at least give a modicum of privacy in their overfilled clinic she went to the large cabinet in the center of the building. Unlocking and throwing open the oak doors revealing the rows of bottles. Each bottle filled with water and when taking a closer look each contained a fat well loved leech. Every single one of them was labelled with indescribable scribbles that the doctor insisted was for category purposes, but she honestly could hardly make out any letters, she had even once found a bottle whose label changed language halfway through.

She grabbed a sufficient number of leeches for each patient per his measurements and the small flint and tinder also locked up and set out. The process of gently lighting the flame under the parasite to loosen their grip, pluck them off the patients, clean the bite marks, and place a new leech on the opposite side of their limb to prevent excessive bruising. Rinse and repeat, most of the patients were too far gone in their fevers to even notice her.

By time she had gotten to the last patient, a small boy no older than eight, on the rotation the flint refused to work with her.

“Damn it.”

“That’s a bad word,” the kids voice startled her as he peered up under the blanket with his foot hanging off the bed in her delicate hands. Bloody red sclera contrasting the young and innocent face staring at her in concern.

She forced a smile, “You’re right, I’m sorry,” she still fought with the flint as it struggled to ignite. “I’m going to need you to be very still for me, can you do that?”

He gave a weak nod in response as he stared in curiosity. She snapped her fingers together as she focused her magic; heat, the color of fire, a candle’s wick, just small enough to warm but not enough to burn. A small orange flame summoned itself above her pointer finger and she immediately felt the kids foot jump out of her hand.

“What is that?” Even a raspy disease couldn’t hide the childlike wonder that shined in his voice. Big red eyes staring not in concern but curiosity as he watched the way the above her hand.

She couldn’t hide her smile, Julian normally looked down at her using her magic in front of patients and she didn’t relish the older patients accusing her of witchery, but children were different. “It’s magic,” lifting her hand closer to the kid as she focused on the flame. Shifting its color from pale orange to a shifting kaleidoscope in front of them.

He shot up with a hanging jaw as a weak arm grabbed her gloved wrist to look at it closer. “That’s so cool! How does it work? Why is it doing that?” She opened her palm and let the flame grow larger to let him get a closer look at the shifting colors.

“I can change it by focusing very hard on what I want it to look like,” she clenched her fist to snuff it out and the immediate look of disappointment that crossed the child’s face was equal parts comical and heart wrenching. Only returning the utilitarian flame as she went back down to fat leeches on the child's leg that were growing lazy.

She plucked them off and resumed her routine as the kid watched her in wonder, “Can I learn how to do that?” A soft question passed them as she packed up the materials and stood up to leave.

She felt her heart leapt up in her throat. No you can’t, it's not worth learning, you won’t ever get the chance to learn. “Sure, just about anyone can, but only really talented people can be a magician.”

A gasp, “You’re a magician?! Really?” His glassy red eyes filled with wonder, filled with joy. “What else can you do?”

She laughed and took a seat on the bed next to him with her palms open facing him, “Give me your hands,” He enthusiastically threw two small boney hands into her open palms, the dark red of rotting blood and ruined veins in his hands contrasting the black of her gloves. She closed the child’s hands together in a fist and brought them up to lips. She placed a soft whisper of a spell into awaiting hands; Lights, dazzling, animals and starry nights, sights you can only see in dreams. Pulling them away the small glow of lights captured in the kids closed fist she held it close to his chest.

“Hold it close to your heart and think of your most amazing dream,” she covered his eyes, “and then open your hands.”

He paused as he contemplated his dreams out loud in mumbles before he was finally satisfied with his decision. Throwing his hands open allowing the rainbow of streaming colors to reveal them self that she had crafted. She feigned shock at the sight before her as the kid stared in wonder at the illusion, “look at you!”

“I’m doing this?” A wide smile filled his diseased eyes with joy. Moving his hands along the same patterns of the ribbons of light like he could control it.

“Yes sir, already halfway there to being a magician yourself!” She clapped and excused herself, lifting the sterile white curtain as she left him alone with the lights.

-

Julian ran a hand through his thick auburn hair as he walked through the rows of curtains. Yes he told Celica she could change the leeches herself but he still wanted to make sure everyone was okay and everything was done correctly. It would be the only way to relax his racing mind.

Only to pause when he saw one curtain at the end of row barely hiding a miniature light show.

“Yes sir, already halfway there to being a magician yourself!” He heard his coworker’s voice call out as she stepped out from the curtain. Pausing in her steps as she raised a gloved hand to cover a choking sob that he saw begin to retch through her body as she froze.

Desperately he caught up with her and placed a calming hand on her shoulder, only staring up at him in horror in her pale eyes. As he soothed her wrecking shakes he gently peeled back the curtain to glance in the light show and see which patient was occupying the room. Reaching out to grab the clipboard inside the child didn’t even notice his reach as he stared in wonder at the magic.

Bennett Pachis, age eight, arrived at the clinic five days ago.

 thI’m gonna beat Platinum with only pachirisu (bibarel’s along for the ride, and HMs)

I named myself Pachi and my rival (Barry) was Risu because Gen 4 has a character limit to names and wouldn’t let me name them Pachirisu1 and Pachirisu2 or Electric Squirrel 1 and 2.

So i more or less blitz through oreburgs gym as fast as i could avoiding trainers and not catching any pokemon, and then spent the next half an hour trying to catch a pachirisu because despite a 10% chance, rng screwed me over and they refused to come out. After i caught the first one, I didn’t see another one for another half hour. Literally went from level 11 to level 17 before i saw another pachirisu. so my the rules i gave myself, once i caught the first pachirisu, I could only use that pachirisu. Now a level 11 pachirisu’s only damaging move is quick attack. this thing has base 45 attack. it was suffering. 

at level 13 pachirisu learn spark and things got better from there. Levels 13-27 were actually ok all things considered. Like it was only 30% harder than normal. I’m now at hearthome and I expect things to get much harder from here on out as other pokemon start evolving and getting better stats and moves. base 45 attack and special attack...

look at this thing’s pathetic moveset. Please remember this is gen 4 so TMs are single use. 

Geodudes are the bane of my existence, caves and hikers my arch enemies. by level 18 or something they learn magnitude and the only things i have to damage them are quick attack and swift. Battles are slow. Now pachirisu does actually have some bulk (well comparatively speaking for a ~lv15 rat) so these fights ended up with a lot of stalling and healing as I slowly chip away with with swift and bide (if they don’t magnitude me to death), I’ve ended up in a lot of battles the ended up in struggle. please note the pp of the above moves. Geodudes usually spend the first 1-3 turns rock polishing so that’s when i use charm to drop their attack into the void and then comes the guessing game of when they’ll attack (rock throw etc.) where i should bide and when they’ll do defense curl (and i should just attack).

.

well the hearthome, veilstone, and pastoria gyms didn’t cause me any problems. It takes 3 hits to take anything down but it also take 4 hits to down pachirisu. I’m also over leveled so i skipped some optional areas. all in all its not hard. yet.. probably because I’m overleved. pachirisu’s got discharge and superfang so im doing ok for now

the barry canalave fight went well until i got to the roserade.... its special attack is high enough i needed to heal every other turn. then it leech seeded me and kept sleeping me.... Canalave gym er well the steelix really caused me problems. I more or less heal stalled it to death. Pachirisu just doesn’t have enough power. That was painful just slowly chipping away at it.... healing every 3 turns, trying to keep it confused as much as possible.

By level 43, pachirisus’ stats are starting to fall behind, I can’t one shot wild pokemon 15 levels below me, and am increasingly relying on super fang to get through battles. The ice gym was pretty bad, stalled out a few time.... ended up struggling the froslass to death... bled a lot of money...

brb purging this from my memory

.

so catching 5 pachirisu was so mind numbingly boring that i got a mental block trying to catch no. 6 so i gave up. anyways went and caught my last pachirisu so now i finally have a full team. that said, I’m only really using 3.

I forgot how much i hated mt. cornet. i give up. Max Repels all the way. Team galactic was actually ok but mostly because they used a lot of murkrow and golbat. The final Cyrus fight was actually pretty good considering I’m level 48. Giratina though was a problem. So part of the initial rules was no catching pokemon so i had to knock it out. (I did catch a chansey because i wanted a lucky egg but the chansey and luck egg rates are so low i gave up and released the chansey i caught. also cynthia forced a togepi egg on me so i got that). Anyways the only move i had that wasn’t normal type was spark/discharge and giratina resists electric. so that fight took a while... i lowered giratina’s attack by 6 stages, paralyzed it and then kept it confused and slowly whittled down its health. didn’t lose too many, 1 KO from a crit.

Sunnyshore was a mixed bag, like it’d go ok and then I’d hit a wall and get stuck and bleed moomoo milks and then it’d be ok again for the next 4 pokemon. Pokemon like jolteon caused me a lot of problems since I only have normal and electric moves. I refuse to grind to for this so maybe I’m just making my life harder than it has to be but yeah not great but it could have been much worse. Overall I am definitely feeling pachirisu slowing down. The water route was fine, nice to be able to one shot things again (sometimes) but victory road is a huge road block with all the ground pokemon. it was terrible. I mainly used repels  to get through the first floor (got lost -_-) but I might go to iron island which i skipped earlier to grab iron tail. I haven’t used any tms yet because single use is terrifying and I’m scared of commitment but I’m considering toxic, double team, light screen, dig, charge beam, thunderwave. Charge beam looks good, but pachirisu is a little weak to be setting up and sweeping so i don’t know yet what I’m going to do. I don’t remember who is in the elite four either so i should look that up. The main problem with the elite four is going to be pp management. Maybe I will toxic and confusion everything to death...

.

yeah getting though victory road was a war of attrition. it was hard.

.

well that last barry fight was excruciatingly painful. I forgot it was there. Staraptor went down in 3 hits as did empoleon and heracross. Heracross kept one shoting me which was annoying and roserade resists electric so that took a while but snorlax was what really caused me trouble. I had to do that fight 4 times because of snorlax. So the problem with snorlax is rest, on a normal run you usually have something powerful enough to take down snorlax in 3 hits, but i don’t. snorlax is just so tanky that I can’t deal enough damage before it ses rest again. earthquake wasn’t so much a problem after 3 charms, but rest kept resetting any paralysis or confusion i got on snorlax. I had to exhaust all 10 pp for rest and all pp for earthquake plus switch out whenever crunch lowered my defense. it took a loooonnng time.

.

So I beat the elite four and champion with the power on money. Man that took forever. I went and looked up the sinnoh elite four instead on going in blind like i had been. Zap is my physical attacker and Glitz is my special attacker. Funny thing is that For most of the game Zap has been highest level but Glitz pulled aheah after i sp. a. ev trained on route 212 for a couple levels. sparkle is just along for the ride. So the main danger in relying so heavily on x items is that there’s just a massive set up at the beginning of each fight as i throw like 3 x defense 3 x sp defense 4 sp attack/attck and 2 speed onto my pachirisu. 

So with Aron ?? bug dude? the yanmega would u turn and i died to the heracross a couple times via crits. that damn heracross. I’d send out sparkle to put 3 charms on the heracross and confuse it then switch to Zap and start setting up. It was either the drapion or the scizor that survived a hit but my def was boosted enough to survive. Side note: WHY DOES EVERYTHING HAVE EARTHQUAKE. the drapion, the inpernape, the bronzong, all of bertha’s team....

To deal with Bertha I did teach grass knot to Glitz and set up on him with sparkle leading to charm the hippowdon. This (predictably) was the worse fight and i died the most here which was painful as i had to start over. uuggg. Also setting up took longer since hippowdon kept the sandstorm up. I thought its was only going to last 5 turns and hippowdon already had 3 charms on it so i didn’t was to kill it yet, well i learned. Rhyperior miraculously survived and then earthquake took half my health even with 4 x defends.

Ok so I’m convinced houndoom has an elevated crit rate or something because that thing crited me like once every 4 hits. I was originally pretty worried about magmortar and infernape but flint was ok, or well at least better than bertha. it was gallade in the next fight that gave me more trouble. Not to much but at one point i was praying to rng to not get crited on. But i made it through eventually.

At this point exhaustion is kicking is and I honestly don’t really remember what happened. I led with Glitz for this fight and the last 2 fights since their leading pokemon were all special attackers. Spiritomb was annoying because it kept lowering my sp defense. Set up too so long that by the time i was done, the only move it had pp left in was silverwind, so like 43 turns? I got through most of her team alright, except for the garchomp that survived and proceeded to earthquake me. My second attack left garchomp  with a sliver of health and after it attacked me, glitz was in the red too. After like 2 more turns of jockying with it i took it town with swift.

I can’t remember what fights these were but I got burned a few times and poisoned once and that was annoying. I think it was cynthia’s roserade which was her last pokemon, it's sludgebomb poisoned me i think but its was in the yellow health so i didn’t bother healing and took it down.

And that’s how i beat Pokemon Platinum TM with only pachirisu. In the end i really only used 3 pachirisu and you probably could do this with 1 pachirisu, i wouldn’t quite call this a callenge run since its not too hard. Its at the difficulty where anyone could do this. I mean the easiest way to beat the game with 1 pachirisu is to grind it to level 100 and stuff it with x items, but i hate grinding and since i skipped a lot of battles i was quite poor too. 

My final pokemon count was monferno (starter who i couldn’t bear to release but was poxed after valley windworks), togepi (thatcynthia shoved into the arms and I never used), chansey (i caught and released in a plan to get lucky eggs that i gave up on), tropius (for hms), bibarel (for hms), and 6 pachirisu,my pc boxes were very empty. i never had other pokemon and only pachirisu were ever in battles.

I don’t know why i did this. 

Pachirisu is cute.

I need you

”Okay, we're here! Who wants to knock the door?” Kagura asked.

Two enthusiastic hands rose up and a choir of ”Me, me, me” filled the Yorozuya balcony. Kagura laughed a little and shook her head.

”How about you do it all together, yes?”

”Wait for Kanna-chan,” Sougo said from the stairs leading up to the balcony. Kanna was the youngest of the bunch, still so small that Sougo held her hand as she climbed up the stairs.

”Come here Kanna-chan!” the oldest and the only boy, Souichiro said to his little sister.

Kanna's step on the stairs was a little wobbly and her older sister Mitsuna hurried to hold her other hand. ”You can do it Kanna-chan!” she cheered on.

Sougo's eyes were glued to watch over his daughter's safety. He was so focused that he didn't see Kagura's adoring gaze pointed directly at him. Finally Kanna made it to the balcony and dashed straight for the door.

Souichiro and Mitsuna followed their younger sister to the door. Sougo stepped to stand next to Kagura. They didn't share a word, as both were too interested in watching their children do their thing. The trio exchanged looks and nodded to each other. Then all three began to bang the door with both hands.

A loud thud and a grunt came from inside. Sougo snorted a little. Kagura leaned closer to Sougo. ”I bet that was Gin-chan falling from his chair,” she whispered.

”No doubt about it China.”

After a short while the Yorozuya door opened up. ”Oi-” was all Gintoki got out of his mouth as he scratched his perm.

”GIN-CHAN! GIN-CHAN! GIN-CHAN!” All three kids chanted and rushed to hug the silver-perm samurai.

Gintoki's eyes softened immediately and he tried to greet all the kids attached to him. Kagura and Sougo followed their children inside, but they stayed by the door.

”Thanks for doing this Gin-chan-aru,” Kagura said.

Gintoki looked at Kagura and smiled. ”How can I say no to these little ones if they want to see the old Gin-chan”, he said and patted Souichiro's head.

”Take good care of them Danna.”

Gintoki's eyes switched to Sougo. ”Ah, nice to see you too Sofa-kun.”

Sougo was about to correct him, but...

”It's Sougo, Danna!” All three kids said in perfect unison. Gintoki, Kagura and Sougo were stunned for a moment, but then laughed it right off.

”Kids really listen to everything we say, don't they,” Gintoki laughed and shook his head.

”Yes they do, so watch your language Danna,” Sougo said and placed a small bag on the floor.

”There's everything they need. Clothes, toothbrushes and-”

Gintoki waved his hand to stop Kagura's explanation. ”Kagura-chan, I know what's in the bag, I know who falls asleep first, I know what they like to eat. I know these things so you don't have to worry about us.”

Kagura smiled. ”Yeah, this isn't their first sleepover, I know that.”

”It's okay Kagura-chan, you're their mother, it's your job to worry,” Gintoki said and turned to look at the kids. ”Now go say good night to mami and daddy.”

He didn't have to tell them twice. Kanna giggled and she was the first one to rush to her parents. She was such a daddy's girl and she ran straight to Sougo with open arms. He was already expecting it and kneeled down to catch Kanna in his arms.

Sougo got up with Kanna, who was smiling and giggling. Souichiro and Mitsuna hugged their parents together. Kagura ruffled their hair and kissed Kanna's head. Sougo poked at Kanna's small nose and smiled for her. ”Be a good girl and sleep tight little munchkin.” Kanna's round cheeks blushed a little and she nodded shyly.

Sougo put Kanna down and Gintoki waved for the kids to go to the living-room and get comfortable. ”So I drop them off some time tomorrow, probably around noon.”

”That's fine,” Sougo said.

”But please Gin-chan, don't give them any strawberry milk, it's bad for their teeth, yes.”

”Of course not,” Gintoki said and gulped secretly. He might have already bought a few extra cans just for the night. Usually it was a secret between uncle Gin and the three young Okitas. ”Ah, I invited Pachi-kun and the gorillas so the kids see them too,” he said to change the subject.

”That's nice Gin-chan,” Kagura said. ”Have fun and let us know if they misbehave, okay?”

”Yeah, yeah. Get going already you two!”

Kagura nodded and smiled. ”Good night kids!” she said before leaving.

”Good night!” at least two of the kids shouted from the living-room, one was already distracted by a pile of JUMPs on the coffee table.

Kagura and Sougo stepped out of the Yorozuya. ”See you tomorrow,” Gintoki said and slid the door close.

Sougo knew Kagura was always a little gloomy after leaving the kids to someone's care. She trusted Gintoki, she just loved her kids so much. ”Hey”, he called.

Kagura sort of snapped out of her mood and looked at her husband. ”Let's go home China,” Sougo said with a twinkle in his eye.

Kagura knew that twinkle, it was the reason she became pregnant six years ago. ”We should hurry, yes?” Kagura said and gave him a flirty smile.

Sougo and Kagura got into their car, ready to go straight home. Their kids loved visiting Gintoki and sometimes he even took them in for a sleepover. These were the nights Sougo and Kagura had time for themselves. With three young kids and jobs, time was a rare luxury.

It had been three whole months since Sougo and Kagura got to spend some quality time with each other...if you know what I mean. Three long and painful months. Usually they found time and energy for the occasional quickie, but for the past three months there was no such luck. Sure they shared a couple of quick kisses here and there, but that was it.

Sougo was about to start the car, but he happened to glance at his wife. Kagura wore her long red cheongsam with those sinfully high side slits and her hair was under her hair ornaments. She was looking outside with a neutral look on her face. Kagura inhaled deeply and Sougo couldn't stop his eyes from dropping down to her rising chestal area.

Kagura didn't know she was being observed like some pray, she just minded her own business. She sure was exhausted from taking care of the house, the kids and a couple of odd-jobs with the Yorozuya. Her neck felt a bit sore and she rubbed it a little.

Sougo's mouth watered just by looking at her, eyes closed, relieving her tensed neck. A soft breath of relaxation flowed through her slightly parted lips. Kagura dropped her hand and stretched her neck from side to side. Sougo had his hand on the car key, but his focus had gone out the window.

Kagura realized that the car's engine wasn't running and she swiftly turned to Sougo. His eyes were burning and she felt shivers travel down her back. ”W-what? Why are you looking at me like that?”

Sougo exhaled and tried to concentrate. He leaned closer to Kagura and traced his fingers on her cheeks. Her breath hitched under his simple touch and those lustful red eyes. ”Ne China...are you trying to seduce me or what?” he asked and blew gently into her ear.

Another hitched breath escaped her lips. ”Ah, no...what do you mean?”

Sougo brushed his lips against her ear. ”Yes you are. Moving that sexy neck of yours right in front of my eyes.”

He dragged one finger against the pulse on her neck. ”Massaging your tense muscles all by yourself.”

Kagura's eyes closed up and she breathed again, this time louder.

”And making me jealous of not being the reason for your breaths of satisfaction?” Sougo murmured. ”Unacceptable.”

With that he licked her earlobe and nibbled it with his eager lips. Kagura wrapped her fingers around his wrist and moaned softly. Three months was a long time for both of them. Every touch felt unreal. ”N-no...I wasn't trying-”

”Shh...” he hushed into her ear. Then he guided her to face him. Kagura opened her eyes and drowned into his eyes right away. His piercing gaze made her focus solely on him. Just the way he wanted.

Sougo kissed her without further warnings or suggestions, he needed her, right now. Kagura answered the kiss and cupped his cheeks. The kissing felt wild and unstoppable. Hot breaths were coming out as their kisses turned more and more heated.

Kagura broke their kiss, breaths coming out very disheveled. ”But...huh....we...”

Sougo leaned to her ear. ”Let me love you Kagura.”

His words sent sparks down her spine, all the way down to her womanhood. Sougo latched his lips to her neck and his hand was already fumbling to unhook her cheongsam. Kagura's hands dropped from his face to rest over his shoulders.

Kagura found herself surrendering to his plead, but then she remembered something very important. ”Ah, no...” she whimpered. ”Not here.”

Sougo pretended he didn't hear her and bit her pulse. Kagura gnawed her nails into his jacket from the teasing pleasure he gave her. But she had to get herself together, she had to resist him, no matter how impossible it felt.

Kagura pushed him off her firmly, yet lovingly. She looked him deep into his crimson eyes. ”Not here. Don't you remember what we talked about Chihuahua?”

Sougo did remember, he just couldn't control himself against his wife's undeniable charm. He felt thirsty for her, he couldn't describe it any other way. Sougo sighed a little. ”Yeah...but I-”

”No buts, let's go with our plan, yes?”

”...but...”

”But what? Do you hate the plan?”

He sighed again. ”No...I don't.”

Kagura squeezed his shoulders a little and smiled. ”All I want for us is to have a nice home night alone, eat dinner, talk about stuff, get in to the mood, you know.”

Sougo grabbed her wrists gently and pressed his cheek against one of her hands. ”I know, I'm sorry,” he said.

”It's okay, just wait a little while longer, yes.”

”Yeah...” he said and looked her straight into her eyes. ”I'm just so fucking horny, you have no idea.”

Kagura pinched his cheek a little and cocked an eyebrow. ”You think you're the only one huh?”

Sougo snorted at her and lifted his head off her hand. ”Judging by the way you kissed me, we're on the same boat,” he said and let go off her wrists.

Kagura withdrew her hands and rolled her eyes at him like he had said something stupid. ”Would you just drive us home, yes?”

”Yeah, yeah,” he said and turned on the car engine.

Kagura crossed her arms and glanced at Sougo from the corner of her eye as he was driving the car. ”You know we don't get these nights a lot, when it's just the two of us-aru.”

”I know.”

”So this isn't going to be one of those sleazy and dirty quickies, yes.”

”Oh, I thought you liked them.”

”I didn't say I disliked them,” Kagura huffed. ”I just want some romance, is there something wrong with that-aru?”

Sougo glanced at her briefly. ”Of course not.”

Kagura relaxed her arms and smiled a little. ”Well good.”

Sougo returned his eyes to the driveway and smirked a little. He loved her, but he couldn't help himself. ”It's all your fault for getting me so worked up right here in the car.”

”Oh shut up,” Kagura laughed at the grinning husband of hers. She knew he was just teasing. Kagura looked at the window beside her. It's surface was humid and she wiped her fingers on it, leaving a trail behind them. A moment ago, the car was full of panting, lustful kisses, pent-up yearning. A concrete proof of that was the still spread across the car windows.

Kagura stole a quick glance of Sougo and bit her lip. She could only imagine all the things they were going to do to each other. The car ride wasn't long, but for Kagura it felt like a small eternity. I'm going to show him just how much I appreciate his patience, she thought to herself and placed her hand on his thigh.

Sougo inhaled and took a quick look at her hand. ”Now I'm confused China. Do you want me to drive this car into a wall or do you want me to throw you on the backseat and fuck you right now?”

Kagura glanced at him with a devious smile. ”I just want you to take us home-aru.”

Sougo gulped at her answer. He was surprised that she didn't get even a little flustered at his suggestions. ”Will do darling”, he said and pushed the gas a little harder. Kagura enjoyed the power she held over him just by strategically placing one hand. This night was going to be like no other.

When Sougo and Kagura got home, they both knew what to do. Sougo was responsible for dinner and Kagura's duty was to set a romantic mood everywhere in the house.

They ate together. They talked, flirted and laughed together. It was romantic, just like Kagura had hoped for. Unfortunately, Kagura's hunger for romance was getting thinner by the second as other thoughts bulldozed her brain. She just wanted to jump on him and show him just how much she had needed him.

Sougo picked up the empty plates and took them to their kitchen. ”Thanks for dinner, it was amazing-aru,” Kagura chirped from the table. Sougo hummed and placed the plates with the other dishes. Before he could say a word, Kagura's hands appeared around his stomach.

”Well hello there”, he said and interlaced his fingers with hers.

”Thank you for being so patient”, she said and pecked his shoulder-blade.

”Heh...it's fine China.”

”Good”, she said and took in the familiar scent from his jacket. Just his smell made her blood gush. ”Sougo...” she purred against his back.

He knew very well that Kagura's engines were burning and ready to go just by the way she said his name.

”I've missed you” Kagura husked. He exhaled deeply, he knew exactly what she meant by missing him. Kagura didn't give him time to answer and slid her hand down. She felt his hardness and shamelessly pressed it with her palm. Sougo's breath hitched roughly, sensitive was a mild way to describe his state of senses.

Sougo released her hand, so she could focus better on caressing his growing erection. He dipped his head back and closed his eyes. Kagura continued to tease him, feeding her need to hear his breaths of pleasure. ”Kagura...” he breathed. She kissed his neck and he stroked her cheek with his free hand.

”Fuck...” he grunted. Kagura giggled with a very seductive tone, pushing him right off the edge. ”That's it.”

With swift motion, Sougo pushed her hands off him and turned around. Kagura inhaled strongly as he lifted her up. She allowed him to do so and by reflex she wrapped her legs around him. He hoisted her up better and moved towards the kitchen counter.

Sougo placed her on the counter and pushed his body as close to hers as possible. Kagura gasped as she felt his hips so close to hers. He was panting and glaring at her like she was his to claim, which she surely was. There was something deeply animalistic in the way he acted and it turned her on like crazy.

They kissed almost desperately, like their time was running out. Sougo broke their kiss and left her unsatisfied lips to kiss her jaw line, unhooking her dress as fast as possible. Kagura let out a moan as he grinded his aching erection against her equally needy sex.

As the last hook on her dress opened up, Kagura needed to act fast. ”Mmh, Sougo?”

”Yes?” he said in between kisses.

”I know you're going to hate this, but...” Kagura said and whimpered as he grazed her skin with his teeth.

”But what?”

”...not here...”

Sougo stopped his kisses and lifted his eyes up to her level. ”Are you kidding me?” he asked with a ragged breath.

”I'm not...I don't want to do it here,” she said. It was all thanks to her own stubbornness that she managed to stop him (again). She had imagined everything to go down in the bedroom. Kagura wanted to go there to experience all the nasty thoughts she had about him. Otherwise she would have demanded to be fucked right there on the kitchen counter, that's how hot he made her feel.

Sougo breathed a couple of times. Then he huffed roughly. ”My god, woman...” he said with a frustrated voice.

Kagura frowned a little with an apologetic smile. ”Give me five minutes and come to the bedroom, yes.”

Sougo inhaled deeply and exhaled through his mouth. Then he backed away from Kagura to let her jump off the counter. He seemed to be a little annoyed and Kagura didn't want to play with his sexual frustration any further.

She hugged him softly to get his eyes back to hers. ”Are you angry at me?”

”No...” he said and touched her soft cheek. ”Just, promise to make it up for me China.”

Kagura smiled with lust blurring her vision. She thought of all the great ways to ”make things up for him”. She settled for the one she knew he would love the most. Kagura kissed him lightly and leaned closer to his ear. ”Anything you want”, she purred, making his chest rise heavily.

”You're forgiven China. Now go, you have four minutes left.”

”But I said five, yes.”

”Three minutes left.”

”Okay, okay horndog”, she slurred. Sougo laughed at her choice of words and watched as she walked towards the bedroom. ”Your yukata is on the couch, change into it. Okay?”

”Okay.”

Kagura disappeared from his sight and he took in a calming breath. ”You can be such a tease”, he mumbled to himself as he grabbed his yukata.

”I heard that!” Kagura shouted from the bedroom.

”I meant you to!” Sougo snarked playfully back at her.

Now, what would I want for her to do, he thought to himself. He felt a jolt go down his spine just from thinking about all the different possibilities. He liked the fact she gave him the power to request anything, but really, all he wanted to do was to love her until she was too out of breath to scream his name.

*

*

”Can I come in now?” Sougo asked behind the bedroom door.

”You may enter-aru.”

Sougo opened the door and took a quick look around the room. Kagura had planted lanterns all over the place to give the room a warm atmosphere. She had laid out their futons on the floor and there she was, waiting for him with a wide smile on her face.

Kagura wore a red mesh kimono and red underwear, bra without straps, panties with tiny ruffles. Her long vermillion hair was undone and wildly spread on the futon. She was a sight all right. Kagura was laying on her side, resting her upper-body on her elbow. ”Damn...” he said as he stared at her, eyes telling of his overjoyed approval.

Kagura used his staring to her advantage. Slowly and sultry, she rolled on her back, crossed her wrists above her head, pressed her thighs together as innocently as possible, arched her back a little and parted her lips just enough. ”What are you waiting for..?” she said with the sexiest voice she could pull off.

Sougo let out a deep breath, eyes taking in thousand of pictures of her to burn into his memory. ”I'm just...enjoying the view.”

Kagura giggled. ”If you don't come here right now, I'll start without you.”

His eyes flashed as he practically ran to her. He crouched over her hastily and Kagura could only laugh at his silliness. He laughed too. Then a silence settled between them. Sougo studied every inch of her and Kagura enjoyed the attention.

”You know you didn't have to dress up for me.”

Kagura pushed herself higher. Sougo backed down as she sat up completely. She had a suspicious look on her face. ”Oh, you don't like it?” Kagura asked and hopped on to his lap without any warnings.

She wrapped her hands on his neck and looked deeply into his eyes. Sougo was mesmerized by her, she was still the same breathtaking woman he had fallen for all those years ago. ”I mean, you look smoking hot in that thing...that's not the issue.”

Kagura tilted her head a little. Sougo slid his hands under her kimono to feel her bare skin. As she focused to feel his roaming fingers he leaned into her ear and said... ”You look better naked.”

Sougo returned to look into her blue eyes, her gaze was full of need. Kagura bit her lip and smiled. ”Uh-huh...what are you going to do about it?”

Sougo chuckled. ”Maybe I-” he said but abruptly stopped to yawn loudly. He realized right away how his yawning looked like to Kagura. Sougo's eyes were wide but not as wide as Kagura's were.

”Did you...did you just yawn?”

”Uh...maybe.”

”Oh? Am I really that boring?”

”No, no, no. I'm sorry, it was an accident”, Sougo said hastily, trying to recover the situation before Kagura would lose her temper. Though a bit of anger from Kagura gave always a little extra to their love-making.

They were the champions of make-up sex. Well, they used to be when they weren't so busy with everything else. Nowadays they had like 27 arguments to vent out before they had the time to have sex.

Kagura was still a little offended, but Sougo wasn't giving up. ”Look at me,” he said and cupped her cheeks. Their eyes locked. ”You're not boring, you're the most beautiful woman in this entire universe.” Kagura rolled her eyes at him, she was as easy to piss of as to calm down. ”I'm so lucky, you're-”

”Shut up already,” Kagura ordered and kissed him to make sure he understood his yawn had been forgotten. She dragged her fingers against his chest, simultaneously trying to push the clothing off him. He smiled into their kiss as he noticed her agenda.

They took turns in dominance, but tonight Sougo wasn't going to settle for anything less than being on top. He wanted to literally take her. To control the pace, to control the position, to give her the satisfaction she deserved. Just thinking about her surrendering completely to him made his member remind him of its presence.

Kagura was sitting on his lap, legs folded on each side of him. To him, it was an easy position to turn to his advantage. Without breaking their kiss, Sougo dropped his hands off her cheeks, running them around her body. From her collarbone to her sides, from her sides to her lower back, from her lower back to her butt.

Then he rose up to his knees and lifted her up. Kagura hummed into their kiss, she liked how strong he was, it was a major turn on for her, always had been and always would be. Sougo broke their kiss for a second. His eyes demanded her to look at him and she had no other choice but to obey. Him looking at her that fiercely made her heart pound harder. ”Get on you back,” he husked.

Kagura didn't feel like putting up a real fight, so she settled on teasing him. ”Excuse me, I am the only do-S in this relationship so that for I-” she slurred like she didn't mean a word she said. Sougo grunted at her and tossed her on the bed.

Her back thudded against the bedding and he followed right after her, hovering over her. Kagura giggled at him, easily making him laugh too. He stroked her cheeks and softly gazed into her eyes. After all the years, after growing up, after raising their own children, there were those rare times when both Sougo and Kagura felt like those two dumb brats they once were.

Sougo kissed her with a tender pressure, putting aside all the sexual desire pushing him. He wanted to focus on just kissing her, tasting her, loving her. Kagura hummed into his mouth, she felt the pure affection.

After the kiss, under the dim light, Sougo rubbed his nose against hers. ”You know, I'm not sure do I say it enough, but I-”

”I know,” Kagura said and giggled a little.

”Oi, you don't know what I was going to say”, Sougo said with a smile.

”Of course I do”, Kagura said and cupped his cheeks. ”I just like it when you show me how much you love me instead of telling me, yes.”

She really knew what he was going to say and it warmed Sougo's heart greatly. Was he really that obvious in his wifes eyes. Sougo leaned to peck her cheek softly and shared his thoughts with her. ”I think we've always been better with actions rather than words.”

”Agreed-aru.”

Sougo smiled and kissed her again. Then he pulled away to look at her with a mischievous smile.

”Now then...how about we get these unnecessary porn star clothes off you, ne?”

”These are not porn star clothes”, she huffed, trying to act all serious.

”Yes, sure. What ever you say,” Sougo said and pulled her kimono open.

”No, no. You're not listening to me,” she said as Sougo tried to expose her chest by pulling the fabric with his teeth.

”Oi! You-” she said, but stopped to yawn. Now it was her turn to feel the agony of yawning in the wrong place. Sougo rested his bodyweight on her and leaned his cheek on his hand. Kagura felt so embarrassed, she had just scolded him for doing the same damn thing a moment ago.

Sougo couldn't wait to hear how Kagura would try to get out this mess. ”Oi? Did you just yawn?” he asked, keeping his voice annoyingly calm.

”I uh...I umm...maybe.”

”Well now you have offended your husband's feelings, what are you going to do about it?”

Kagura knew he was just playing with her and she frowned her brows at him. ”I'm sorry, I'm just a little tired, yes.”

”Oh...so I'm so boring that you are too tired to commit to your wifely duties?” he said and smirked with the satisfaction of watching her skirm in her embarrassment.

”Oh come on! That's not what I meant!”

Sougo felt like he was on top of the world, but then he fell into his own pit and yawned again. Kagura's eyes widened and her lips curled up. ”Well, well. Who's tired now, huh?”

”Apparently the both of us.”

”This can't be happening. It's all your fault!”

”My fault? How the hell is it my fault?”

”That dinner you made, it was so good that it made me drowzy-aru.”

”Sorry?”

Kagura shook her head. ”We both know it's not your fault, we're just tired, yes.”

”I guess,” Sougo said and rested his head into her soft bosom.

”This is our special night, I don't want to spend it by sleeping.”

”Me neither China, we have to find a way to get energized again,” Sougo said as he nuzzled his head against her. Without even realizing it, Sougo had closed his eyes.

Kagura felt her eyelids getting heavier too. Without any rest, the fantastic sex she had dreamed about wasn't going to be that fantastic. ”Hey, I know!”

”Mmmh?”

”How about we take a quick nap-aru?”

”Mmmh...sounds great miss Okita,” he mumbled.

Kagura wrapped her arms around Sougo, who cuddled up next to her. ”Yeah...when we wake up...zzz...I'm gonna rock your world, uh-huh.”

”What the hell are you talking about China? I don't like rock music,” he mumbled as his mind was somewhere between dreaming and Kagura's breasts.

”Shut up Sadist, I'll wake you up in a few minutes...”

And both Sougo and Kagura fell asleep. Sleep-deprivation and perfect silence in their house won this time. As one could guess, neither woke up in a few minutes. Both were sleeping like logs untill the morning sun rose.

*

*

Kagura woke up to the sunlight beaming in from the bedroom window. She squinted her eyes and grunted quietly. Kagura forced her eyes to open, no matter how much she prefered to keep on sleeping. As her eyes adjusted to the light, she saw Sougo sleeping right next to her.

Her eyes softened and she stroked his cheek, careful not to wake him up. Then Kagura glanced at her clothes that unfortunately were still on her rather than thrown across the floor. ”Dammit...” she said almost soundlessly as she realized they had slept through the night.

Kagura got up from the warm futon as quietly as possible. She knew how exhausted Sougo was and the last thing she wanted was to force him up on his day off. Kagura walked to their dresses to check the time. A deep sigh of defeat was the only sound coming out of her mouth as she learned that it was almost noon.

There was nothing left to do but to change into her normal clothes and get ready for the kids to come home. Maybe in another three months they would get the next opportunity. The mere thought of waiting for so long made her feel extremely frustrated, a little angry even. Still Kagura wasn't angry at her family, she just felt that the lack of time wasn't fair for her and Sougo or their needs.

Kagura pushed her free hair behind her ears and tried to forget about the slight bitterness in the back of her mind. She pulled a drawer open to dig out some clothes. Then, out of nowhere a pair of hands wrapped around her waist. Kagura gasped as the two strong arms pulled her into a tight hug.

She hummed as the familiar warmth from their bed was now surrounding her again. Sougo held her silently, nuzzling his face on her silky hair.

”Good morning-aru”, she said and embraced his arms.

”Morning...”

”I didn't know you were awake.”

”I wasn't untill you left my side.”

”Oh...sorry...”

His voice was low, but sweet, like sugar for her ears. Sougo placed his chin on her shoulder and looked at the clock on the dresser. Kagura knew he felt the same as her as a deep breath came out of his nose.

”It's almost noon. We should get dressed before the kids and Gin-chan get here, yes.”

Sougo didn't answer he just planted a few butterfly kisses on her shoulder.

”Oi, did you hear me?” Kagura asked and glanced at Sougo.

”All I heard it's not noon yet...” he murmured and smooched her neck.

Kagura's eyes fluttered shut as he kissed her neck harder. ”Mmh...we can't.”

Sougo moved his lips to her ear and let out such a ragged breath, it made her feet feel weak. ”Listen, I know last night didn't go as we planned, but...”

Kagura turned her head to look at him. ”But what?” she said and realized her breathing had gotten a little heavier. She partly blamed his eyes, red with fire and intensity, luring her in too easily.

”I think I might go crazy if I have to wait even a second longer to be with you,” he said with lust dripping from his voice. Then he kissed her, softly savouring with the taste of her lips. Kagura answered his passion and cupped his cheek with one hand. Sougo's hands started to move too, he searched for her kimono's robe.

Kagura whined a little as Sougo pulled her kimono wide open. He didn't waste any time and traced his fingers on her bare skin. Their kiss deepened as his hands travelled up on her sides. Kagura moaned a little into their kiss as he passed by her covered breasts. She felt him press his hips against her backside, she knew he was weak for her cries of pleasure.

Sougo's hands settled to hold her waist firmly. Then he broke their kiss to shift his attention to her neck. His breaths against her pulse quickly changed into wet kisses. Kagura's eyes closed again as he sucked the sensitive skin on her neck.

Her hands settled to grip his shoulders. Sougo paused his kisses and leaned to her ear. ”Now Kagura, I need you now.”

His voice was unbearable, she exhaled heavily as the desire to surrender to his plead grew inside her. His words sent sparks all around her, she felt her whole body screaming for him, she needed him too.

They didn't have a lot of time, but there was nothing that could stop them, the raw carnal need was truly undownable. Sougo watched his wife's face as she swallowed and parted her perfect lips just a little bit.

She chose her words carefully. ”Take me”, she begged, with a slightly demanding voice.

Sougo's eyes flashed, nothing was hotter than hearing that. He exhaled heavily, hardly containing his excitement. Sougo guided her to face him. She narrowly opened her eyes to look at him. ”Gladly,” he said with a  smile and kissed her.

Without any further delays, he began to pull the kimono off her. Kagura dropped her hands to her sides and the red piece of clothing slid to the floor. His hands were everywhere, enjoying the smoothness of her milky skin, admiring the firmness of her muscles, he enjoyed his wife's strength as much as she did his.

Sougo was kissing her earlobe as his hands rose up to her breasts. Kagura wanted to get things going so she wanted to help him. She began to unhook her bra, but was quickly stopped by Sougo. ”No time for that,” he murmured into her ear.

Kagura gasped as Sougo pulled her bra down to rest on her waist. He glanced at her and she blushed a little. ”So impatient...” Kagura teased, despite how much he turned her on with his actions. He gave her a sly smile and kissed her again, those puckered lips were just too delicious to be left alone. One hand caressed Kagura's breasts, but the other began to drop down. He went all the way down, hand slipping under her red panties.

Kagura broke their kiss with a loud moan as she felt his fingers touching her folds. Though it wasn't a surprise for Sougo, it always felt amazing to feel her already soaking wet before doing much of anything. She was ready for him, she was pretty sure she had been wet since yesterday.

She felt his dick throb against her back as he positioned his fingers to tease her clit. With slow circular motions he turned Kagura's hopeless panting into a steady moaning. ”Ah, Sougo, stop teasing me”, she pleaded and tightened her grip on his shoulders. Sougo paid no mind to her words and continued to kiss her neck.

Sougo kept warming her up despite the strict time limit. Kagura wiggled against him, she couldn't keep still as the sensation was too intense. Sougo added just the right amount of speed, making Kagura's moans turn down right desperate.

She hadn't been touched by him for so long, his kisses on her neck, his skillful fingers giving the friction she needed. Kagura threw her head back to lean against his shoulder as she rested her hands on Sougo's nape.

Sougo's intention was to tease her a little, but he was absolutely addicted to hear her pleasure. Kagura moans got louder and more rapid. ”I-I'm...” she cried.

Kagura was on the edge of her release and Sougo was happy to grant it to her. He added a tiny amount of pressure on his motion and watched as Kagura gasped for air. All of a sudden she slapped her hands on Sougo's arm, halting his actions for a moment. She opened her eyes to look at him, her face was flushed and Sougo loved how deeply she glared at him, eyes oozing from sexual energy.

”Please stop,” Kagura commanded.

Sougo felt a little puzzled for a moment. ”Why? You were so close”, he said with a tint of disappointment in his voice.

Kagura swallowed and pulled his hand out of her panties without breaking their eye contact. ”I don't want to come like that...I want more,” Kagura whispered and kissed Sougo's neck a little. He hummed in appreciation, her words clearly had an impact on him. ”I need you.”

Sougo felt shivers jolt around his back. ”I can make you feel more...” he husked.

Kagura huffed a little and turned around in his arms to face him. She tugged his hair from the back of his head with both hands. ”Then stop talking and show me, yes,” Kagura said and pulled him into a kiss.

Her kiss was so demanding, she was clearly driven with pure carnal need. After all she was on the verge of orgasm a moment ago so any sort of teasing or delay would be out of question for her.

Sougo wasn't any different from her, he too was aching with need. Effortlessly as ever, Sougo lifted Kagura up to sit on the drawer. She spread her legs to let him come closer to her. Kagura moaned wildly into their kiss as Sougo traced his fingers all over her thighs and pressed his hips to hers.

She began to undress Sougo from his yukata. After the piece of clothing dropped off him Kagura's hands roamed around his toned upper body. She took a peek at him during their kiss and to her pleasant surprise he didn't have any underwear. He surely came to bed prepared last night, she thought.

Sougo broke their kiss and leaned to nibble on her ear. ”Be a good girl and take off your panties,” he ordered with a sultry whisper.

”No, I can't wait any longer Sougo...just pull them to the side,” she breathed as he kissed her neck. Sougo's breath hitched, he thought Kagura couldn't get any sexier than she already was, but apparently she could.

Sougo did as he was told and pulled those damned sinful panties out of his way. Kagura yelped as Sougo pulled her hips closer to the edge of the drawer. He pressed his erection against her slick folds and grunted at the contact. He moved his hands from her hips to her thighs and pushed them to spread her legs wider.

Kagura arched her back and pressed her palms firmly against the wooden drawer. He stopped kissing her neck and returned to her pink pout, just tenderly tasting her lips. His crimson eyes weren't on fire anymore, they were ablaze.

”Please, I need to feel you”, Kagura whispered.

She didn't have to tell him twice. Sougo located her entrance with his dick and the warm wetness felt so inviting. Then after all the waiting, he entered her. She was so wet and willing that he slid all the way inside with the first move. Sougo exhaled heavily, the first thrust in was always the best. She felt perfectly tight as her walls welcomed him in.

Kagura moaned loudly as he entered her, she was ecstatic to feel the friction she had missed. After she adjusted to his size, she bucked her hips a little and tightened her inner walls around him. ”Fuck...you're so...” Sougo moaned and dropped his head to rest on Kagura's shoulder.

Kagura stopped her motions and wrapped her hands around his waist. ”Huh, what's wrong?” she panted.

Sougo chuckled in between his panting. ”Nothing, I just sound like some cherry boy having sex for the first time.”

Kagura giggled a little at him. ”Oh, poor you,” she said and tightened her walls around him again, making him grunt with pleasure.

Sougo let go of her thighs and Kagura positioned them nicely against his legs. He bucked his hips again to get the idea of thrusting into her again and again feel irresistable. ”You just feel so fucking good,” he husked and hungrily claimed her lips.

Kagura gnawed her fingers onto his shoulder blades as Sougo began to find the rhythm with his hips. He was eager to fuck her as hard as he could, but at first he wanted to keep everything nice and slow. Deep thrusts, each savouring in the feeling of filling her pussy.

Sougo wanted a better angle to hit her pleasure spot easier. He took a firm grip of her hips. Kagura was so overwhelmed of feeling him after a long time of waiting, she allowed him to move her as he liked.

With the angle corrected Kagura started to lose focus with kissing, she was lost in the feeling of utter ecstasy. She had to break their kiss to scream from the satisfaction. Kagura moaned and gasped for air as Sougo picked up the pace of his thrusts.

Sougo was as lost in the euphoria as his wife was. Neither could hardly kiss with all the panting and moaning. The more he hit her spot, the closer Kagura came to feeling the familiar feeling pooling inside her. She was close to her well deserved release.

Sougo had always been proud of his stamina, but this time he could have peeked almost immediately after entering her. Still, there was no way in hell Sougo was going to let that happen. Kagura was going to come first, no matter how hard it was going to be for him.

He felt Kagura's walls pulsating around him and it could only mean one thing. Her breathing was incoherent and her moans were coming out with rapid pace.

With a loud cry oh his name her mind went blank from her intense release. Sougo felt her walls squeezing around him, her nails grazing his skin, her hot breaths telling of her state of mind. With the next thrust he finally allowed himself to follow her orgasm with his own.

Kagura exhaled deeply as her peek began to sizzle down to a wonderful feeling of relaxation. Both were still panting, bodies slumped against the surprisingly sturdy drawer, sweaty fore-heads pressed together.

”Huh...I...I...” Kagura breathed.

”What? Huh...”

Kagura swallowed and tried to get her words out. ”I love you...huh...and your dick.”

Sougo laughed as he simultaneously pulled himself out of her. He kissed her gently and Kagura felt his smile through the sweet affection. ”I love you too...and my dick.”

Kagura snorted and tried to hold in her laughter. ”Shut up stupid.”

Sougo rolled his eyes playfully at her. Kagura rested her head against his bare chest, still basking in the afterglow of her orgasm. She closed her eyes and hummed deeply.

”I'm gonna nap here real quick, 'kay?” Kagura said and nuzzled her head against him.

”Are you sure about that?”

”Uh-huh.”

Sougo shook his head a bit. He swooped his wife from the drawer into his arms and carried her bridal style to their bed.

Kagura wasn't putting up a fight when he placed her softly on the futon, laid right next to her and pulled the covers over them. Sougo tried to spoon Kagura, but she muttered something to herself before he even touched her.

”Are you okay?”

*more quiet muttering*

”Oi?”

Kagura stretched one hand behind her and unhooked her bra. ”These are so annoying, yes”, she said and flung them somewhere far away. Then she scooted her butt against Sougo. He chuckled a little and pulled her closer.

His other hand settled to caress her soft belly. Kagura loved the silence around them, she could focus solely on being there with her sadist of a husband. Suddenly she snapped out of the soothing bliss.

”Oi, we can't be sleeping right now.”

”Why not?”

”Gin-chan and kids are going to be here any minute now, yes.”

”You know he's always late.”

Kagura looked back a bit, memorizing all the times Gintoki was dropping off their children. ”Hmm...I guess you're right.”

Sougo kissed her nape and nuzzled his head against her wild vermillion hair. ”Close your eyes,” he said quietly. Kagura inhaled deeply and relaxed her whole body as her eyes shut close.

”I'm really glad we had enough time to...you know-”

”To bang?”

”You're so crude...”

”Oh, and you're not miss foul mouth?”

”I'm miss Okita and I'm a real lady.”

Sougo laughed quietly. ”I can't argue that.”

He knew Kagura was smiling, she had a cute habit of squeezing her toes a little when she smiled genuinely. Kagura glanced at him behind her shoulder. ”Can you hold me closer?” she asked sweetly.

His answer was to do just that.

*

*

”Alright, we're here,” Gintoki said as he stepped closer to the front door of Sougo and Kagura's house (50 minutes late). He used his spare key and opened the door.

The house seemed to be very quiet despite it was already mid-day. Gintoki announced their arrival and squinted his eyes with suspicion as no-one was there to welcome them in. Souichiro, Mitsuna and Kanna sat down to take off their shoes.

”Wait here kids”, Gintoki said and kicked his shoes off.

”Is something wrong uncle Gin-chan?” Souichiro asked.

”No no, I'm just going to check something real quick.”

Gintoki entered the living-room, which was empty. Then he checked the kitchen, empty as well. From there Gintoki walked to Sougo and Kagura's bedroom door. No matter how much older Kagura grew up, she was still the same 14-year-old girl in Gintoki's eyes.

Kagura had been pregnant three times already, but Gintoki had convinced himself that the babies were delivered by storks. His little innocent Kagura would never make babies with the old-fashioned way.

Gintoki pressed his ear against the door. He didn't hear anything too alarming for a foster-father. Without thinking about it further, Gintoki opened the door a little.

There he saw the two sleeping in a spoon. Gintoki's eyes ignored all the clothes around the bedroom floor and found the sight of them sleeping together adorable. He didn't want to disturb their rest, he imagined how tiring it was to raise three children with Sofa-kun.

Gintoki closed the door as quietly as he could. He returned to the kids and scratched his natural perm.

”Apparently mami and daddy are runniing some errands,” Gintoki lied. ”How about we take a ride on Sadaharu around Kabukicho, ne?”

”Yay!” All three cheered.

And just like that the house was quiet for three more glorious hours.

Rate Your OCs Hug Tag

Tagged by @kiki-writes-fic…but really, me. I did this to myself.

Rules: for each of your OCs, rate how cuddleable they are on a scale of 1-10. Descriptions/elaborations are totally rad, but you do you, fam. Tag some people after!  (A note of my own: I’m only doing OCs that made an appearance in the fics in question; so, excluding those who are mentioned at some point but are not present, at least so far (5/27/2019).

Kimi Yoshida: 7/10. She’s inexperienced, but she tries her best.

Eleuterio Torres: 4/10. Surprisingly comforting, but you wish it ended much sooner than it does.

Nozomi: 8/10. She’s a small girl who loves hugs!!

Kenji: 7/10. He’s a small boy who also loves hugs!! But he does get impatient if it goes on for too long.

Michi Takahashi: 6/10. Overzealous yet endearing.

Dael Cantor: 3/10. She has much better things she could be doing, you know.

Melanthios Pachis: 4/10. His hugs are a bit too tight.

Chiriko Hisakawa: 1/10. It would be better, but a violent fear for your life possesses you.

Harue Haramoto: 9/10. Her determination is heartwarming.

“flash” headcanons, go!

paul can cook well, but not as well as his brother.

paul sometimes cries himself to sleep at night. his awareness of this is a contributing factor to why he travels alone.

his favorite color is blue.

he prefers black & white films that are japanese but has a particular appreciation for american ones because they have more (and i mean MANY more) musicals. you’ll find, as a result, that most of the b&w movies he likes that are american are musicals.

paul often says he won’t make the same mistakes as reiji but he knows not too deep down that he’d be happier if he was more like him.

paul feels ‘pressed for time’ on becoming successful because he doesn’t want to wait until reiji is much older to pay him back for all of the good he’s been in paul’s life.

if you were to ask paul what pokemon are to him, he would be unable to answer the question.

paul is a talented trainer, and he still has a pretty good win-rate, but he has stagnated. he’s not improving like he used to and therefore isn’t able to defeat the caliber of trainer that he wants to. 

this is particularly hurtful because he has reason to understand more than most that there’s always someone better.

paul values personal space and the right to say ‘no’ very very highly and it’s one of his strongest, most positive principles.

paul is not a fan of pda to the point that it can cause anxiety attacks apparently? he will express affection in public if he feels alone but not so much if he feels eyes on him.

paul is, on a technical level, conventionally attractive and kind of what every guy wants to be. (he’s well toned, he’s not actually bad to look at, and [redacted].) buuut he’s demi so he’s really not interested in using any of it, physical or emotional, most of the time and on top of that his personality leaves much to be desired. so yeah all of that strapping strength and everything else gets looked over for the most part.

paul really likes simple foods. simple and cheap ones. because for the longest time those were his only options. so you’ll find that a lot of his favorites are things people would look over.

surprisingly, paul doesn’t have a ‘type’ of pokemon. yeah, he does have a lot of powerhouses but he also has speedsters, he also has pokemon that you wouldn’t consider conventionally powerful. he looks for opportunity in all places, just like a [good] player character/competitive battler would. he would be pachirisu guy if he ran across a particularly powerful pachi is what i’m saying.

that wraps it up this time ! if you want me to expand on any of these, shoot me an ask or leave me a reply !
