ASMR | OC - Arden x Listener N-SFW Werewolf Makes You His Good Puppy [Spicy Patreon Preview]

[TM4A / TMTM4A (discussion of Ambrose also being in your relationship but Ambrose is not present for the sex)] [Sub bottom listener] [Pet play] [Collars and leashes] [Non-specific Oral/Eating out] [Oral on speaker, blowjob, face sitting?] [Non-specific Penetration] [Doggy style] [Breeding kink] [Aftercare] [Polyamory]

I know everyone wants Arden and Ambrose together for an audio, and I do too! It's just taking a lot of time because instead of being able to improvise like my usual audios, I have to script this one as there's two characters and for me writing a script and trying to guess how long it will be once I record it is really hard. But I'm trying my best. And yes while Arden does like being a good puppy, he's not going to trust you with that straight away. I hadn't realised there's not been any spicy Arden audios, but it makes sense, he takes more time to get comfortable being intimate with people, and now he's allowing you in, it's still going to take a little more time before he's ready to be that vulnerable in front of you. I might have let someone sneak into the audio for a minute anyway. It's impossible to keep him away.

mxpinksuit_230 asked for "I am oh so very curious to hear what happens between Ambrose the Vampire, Arden the Werewolf and the listener now that their dynamic has opened up", sweet_jade asked for "i’ve wanted another arden and ambrose audio for a while", Aesteraceae asked for "I'd love anything with Ambrose and Arden again, maybe more of them together, or separately", Umi no Tenshi asked for "some more Ambrose and Arden", Kat Slane asked for "I would love to hear how Arden and the Listener are doing now that they've started an intimate relationship. His last audio teased lovely ideas with pinning the Listener down and being a good pup for him.", jam asked for "maybe a continuation of either amrose or arden!", TheBestCheesecake asked for "I really want to hear from Arden (or ambrose) again. Maybe the listener is finally Adren's "good little pup" As promised with the last time we saw him. Pet play, breeding, doggy style penetration, maybe even listener wears a collar/leash?".

So damn... I honestly never expected to be able to do an OC for the fledgling audios and have people requesting for an OC. Thank you so much for enjoying my boys.

Custom audio commissions are open! Full spicy audios on sound gasm and Patreon. Downloadable versions, exclusive  spicy audios and Discord on Patreon. I also stream on Twitch 3 times a week @ dervampireprince . [minors + ageless blogs dni. this blog is for 18+ only.] [do not repost/reupload/edit my audios and videos]

Koufuku no Hato

In my quest to find more Kazeki content, it has come to my attention that Kazeki had a sequel manga, Koufuku no Hato (幸福の鳩), but as a filthy pirate, all I could find was dead scan links and a translation. Where was it?

This 49-page sequel was first published in Takemiya Keiko's Umi no Tenshi (海の天使/Chérubin de la mer) art book in 1991. It was also included in the later editions of Kazeki. The digital edition has this sequel one shot too, so if you are looking for it, your best bet is to get volume 16 from a Japanese e-book seller like this or this one. Seriously, don't be cheap and buy it if you love Kazeki.

I prefer making life harder for myself, so I got the art book and tried scanning Koufuku no Hato for the fandom's pleasure. I highly suggest that you get the e-book to have a better reading experience. I don't know how to scan things and the gutter shadow ruins every page (but come on, don't expect me to rip my beautiful Takemiya art book apart to scan this), but you can get it here.

Have this hilarious Rosemariné/Jules moment. Enjoy all the fanservice Takemiya gave you until you see the no homo ending.

If anyone wants to do an actual scanlation of this, I can help with the missing SFXs or provide Japanese support to the best of my abilities. Just write to me. And get the e-book if you're going to do it, it will save an editor's life.

[translation+lyrics] Lyla and the Clouds Stars by Rigel Theatre

And now for a complete change of pace:

Yeah, sorry to disappoint you all but for once I actually quite like this angel girl (even though it’s actually the same one from the previous album, in fact she was already drawn with a dumb face like this on their website). Her expressions on the xfd video make her quite endearing. She looks goofy, like she’d actually laugh if you cracked a joke (I mean, she’d laugh a few minutes afterwards when she finally gets it, but still). I for one hope they keep this type of deformed faces, it’s just cute. Even the little fairy with her does faces too!

As for the album, well imma be honest: While Rigel was always a fantasy group with magic and stuff it still feels weird to hear them talk about swords and dragons and dinosaurs. They have a very different set of words on this album for sure. The standout track for me is probably one of the instrumental ones, L'Élan, I guess vocals can’t win all the time. Anyway, lyrics down below and see you all next time.

------------------------

Lyla and the Clouds Stars

Music: Rigel Theatre Vocals: ミーウェル

kaze to kumo no umi tadayou sora to ryuu no rakuen ten wo tsuranuku tou no moto tsunobu narihibiku kagayaku hoshiboshi no aachi nozomu zemuriya no tsuki tasogare no taiyou no moto hoshi no kan utsushidasu

Drifting through the sea of clouds and winds, a paradise of skies and dragons A horn can be heard coming from a tower that pierces the sky A shining arch of stars marks the moon of Zemuria From the twilit sun a crown of stars emerges

utae...

Singing...

sha-la-la-la kazetachi yo sha-la-la-la kumo no hazama wo kakenukete yuke Ah... sha-la-la-la ryuutachi yo sha-la-la-la ankoku no sora koeteyuke

Sha-la-la-la the winds Sha-la-la-la the gaps between clouds Rushing through them Ah... Sha-la-la-la the dragons Sha-la-la-la the darkened sky Going further beyond it

tooi kokoku nageki kake kataritsugu zemuriya no sora no uta

Grieving for the distant homeland passing down the songs of Zemuria's skies

kano eigou no han'ei ni hisomu senka no jubaku yami no rairyuu to nari sora wo ooi kakusu gin'iro no yokuryuu wo karu zemuriya no hoshihime tentei no tsurugi wo totte shukumei tachimukau

It's eternal glory has been threatened by the curse of war The thundering dragon of darkness has blackened these skies The star princess of Zemuria rides a silver dragon Taking the emperor's sword to stand against fate

utae... sha-la-la-la taiyou ga sha-la-la-la kumo no umi he to shizumikomu Ah... sha-la-la-la yousei to sha-la-la-la tenshi no tabi wo michibiku

Singing... Sha-la-la-la the sun Sha-la-la-la sinks into the sea of clouds Ah... Sha-la-la-la the fairies Sha-la-la-la guide the journey of the angels

sora no kuni wo kanashii kioku no moto he

Towards the sorrowful memories of the sky kingdom

utae... (sora no kanata he... todoke kokoku no uta) sha-la-la-la kazetachi yo sha-la-la-la kumo no hazama wo kakenukete yuke

Singing... (To the edges of the sky... delivering the homeland's song) Sha-la-la-la the wind Sha-la-la-la the gaps between the clouds Rushing through them

Ah... (kumo wo koe) sha-la-la-la ryuutachi yo sha-la-la-la ankoku no sora koeteyuke

Ah... (Going beyond the clouds) Sha-la-la-la the dragons Sha-la-la-la the darkened sky Go beyond it

tooi kokoku nageki kake kataritsugu zemuriya no sora no uta

Grieving for the distant homeland passing down the songs of Zemuria's skies

Music: Rigel Theatre Vocals: ミーウェル

kumo no kuni kakeru uruwashii himegimi aisuru kioku kokoro ni tojikomete ubawareta kokoku torimodosu tame tsurugi totte tatakai ni nozomu

The beautiful princess rushes through the clouds Keeping her beloved memories in her heart To take back her stolen homeland She grips her sword and fights on

arashi ni nemuru gin'iro no yokuryuu sora no kanata wo mitsumeru sono hitomi tada hitotsu utsurou toki no unmei shinobi himegimi no kokoro yorisou

The silver dragon rests through the storm Eyes fixed on the edge of the sky The only one, reminiscing on times passed With a heart growing fonder of the princess

NANANA... NANANA...

kumo wo koete haruka na kokoku wo mezashite tasogare no uzu ni tobikomu

Overcoming the clouds and reaching for the distant homeland Flying through the vortex of twilight

yuuhi somaru watari tori no mure ga hoshizora meguru hikari no wa wo moguri ima wa naki kokoku no omoide wo hakobi kanashiku wakare tsugeru

The flocks of birds are bathed in sunlight The ring of light swirls through the starry sky Carrying the memories of the bygone homeland She sadly bids her farewell

nagai maboroshi wo itsu no hi kara samezu miteita madoromi to kitsukanu mama

A drawn out vision from a certain day Looking at it, incapable of waking up And not noticing it's a dream

owari hajimari wa itsumo setsuna ni yahan no akatsuki kirameki ga omoi okosu

Beginnings and endings go by so quickly A spark at midnight's dawn makes me reminisce

kagayaku hikari sekai he to kaeritai musuu no akari ni michibikare susumu no mabushii yume no daichi he to kaeru toki anata wa soko de warande todokete kuremasuka

I want to go back to that shining world of light Countless lights lead me back to it Upon returning to the land of shining dreams You'll be there laughing for me Won't you do that for me?

-------------------------------------

Noesis

Music and Vocals: ミーウェル

mou furikaeru mo inishie no chi wa miezu ni aa nagashita namida karehateta toki ni

Not looking back any more, the land of beginnings can't be seen The tears which have ran their course have dried too

itsumade kako torawareta mama susumenai nara

If you're always caught up in the past incapable of moving on

tatazumu koto osorezu hitomi wo tojitara tachitsukusu koto sae mo chikara wo yonde kureru kara

Stand fearless even if your eyes are closed Remain afoot and gather your strength

itsumade kako torawareta mama susumenai nara

If you're always caught up in the past incapable of moving on

tatakau koto osorezu hitomi wo hiraite tachiagaru koto sae mo chikara wo ataete kureru to

Don't be afraid to fight and open those eyes Remain afoot and gather your strength

shinjite anata no naka hikari ga sasu mirai tachiagaru anata ni mo chi kara mo ataete kureru to

Keep on believing on the bright future within you If you can keep on standing, that will fill you with power

----------------------

Once again, the real mvp here is  Suzuoka Hitsuji for hooking me up with the good stuff (that is: jp lyrics for the songs).

Also quite unusual for me but here’s a TL note: I refer to it as a dragon but yokuryuu would normally translate into pterosaur, I just think the word looks so weird I could not bring myself to throw it into the text, but I mean, it is what it is. We don’t exactly see a picture of the girl riding a pterodactyl so given that regular dragons are already in the work, I might as well take the liberty, go ahead and cancel me on twitter.

Also, from the website: Yes it’s the same Lyla from last time, but the little fairy next to her is called Aludra, they actually met in the previous album. She’s a fairy of memories and they are besties. As you’ve already inferred in this album they view/visit the epic memory of a cloud planet (called Nebeskazemlja) that met with tragedy, and our little Lyla is stuck with the choice of whether to interfere or remain an impartial observer as she was supposed to. Oh what a pickle.

Shoujo manga recommendations - sad(ish)/tragedy

So, some of these manga actually have a happy ending (I’m not saying which, cause spoilers) and a few of these are generally happy with some tragic events among the story, so. 

And they range from “ok, it’s sad, I guess” to “oh my god, why??”

Also, most of them touch the supernatural theme (either with vampires, ghosts etc)

The world is full of mysterious "things," but life keeps on going peacefully because no one can see them--except Misao. Harada Misao has the special power to see these "things," but she doesn't tell anybody and tries to continue leading a happy high school life. Though she's jealous of her friends who have boyfriends, she's just like a normal teenage girl as she keeps having dreams about a boy she met when she was younger who has the same power as she does.

Her mundane life suddenly changes when goblins try to eat her, and her old friend Kyo comes back to protect her from them. Then, she finds out that she is personally being sought out as goblin food and that Kyo is a goblin, too. Will she still marry him like they promised when they were children, based on her faith in him that he has no bad intentions towards her? Will she even be safe at school now that Kyo has become her new homeroom teacher? Her exciting teenage life is just about to begin.

Yui who is suffering from an illness has a "wish" that she can’t tell anyone, but Ryo wants to grant her that wish but… After death, reality hits Ryo and Yui.

Album Selection of 2020 | August

Kenshi Yonezu - Stray Sheep (05.08.2020) [★★★★★] *REVIEW*

In the vastity of Japanese pop scene, Kenshi Yonezu is a incredible exception, thanks to a fascinating commistion between music and arts. With his fifth album, he confirmed to deserve his growing popularity, bringing up a nice genre variety on the plate, going from upbeat themes to more melancholic and nostalgical ones, helped by his compelling singing style. Thanks to this recent work, Kenshi’s music will definitely see a bigger audience, for a which exceeds the imposed limits of pop music.

Mary’s Blood - Re>Animator (26.08.2020) [★★★★★]

Already appeared with: Revenant (2018) ,Confessions (2019)

Like many other metal bands in Japan, even Mary’s Blood decided to take a turn from their musical path, releasing a cover album which quite reflects their own skills. The band chose to bring famous anime themes into a new life, filling them with energetic notes, strong rhythms and charismatic vocals, where the tones change according to the song’s style. These four girls could definitely make an anime opening of their own and this album is a strong confirmation of this.

Nothing’s Carved in Stone - Futures (26.08.2020) [★★★★]

Already appeared with: Maze (2015), Existence (2016)

Nothing’s Carved in Stone has built a solid image in their eleven years of career, bringing on a paced and refreshing rock sound. For their latest work the band decided to cover some of their most famous themes, in an album made of two discs, where their sound is the result of their maturity, including catchy themes and great rhythmic touches. This band has grown so much since their debut and there’s a lot of interest of what the future has in store for them.

Crystal Lake - The Voyages (05.08.2020) [★★★★]

Staying on the subject of self-cover albums, the metal band Crystal Lake has repurposed some of their old songs, precisely the ones made with Kentaro Nishimura as singer, this time empowered and modernized by Ryo’s harsher tone, along with a more refined sound and an improved technique. Despite being a brand-new release, Crystal Lake managed to make it fresh and addicting, and we can’t wait to hear more of their music.

Arlequin - The laughing man (19.08.2020) [★★★★]

Already appeared with: Utopia (2016)

After four years made of a bunch of singles and a mini-album in the middle, the visual kei band Arlequin delivers a full album, disproving whoever thought that their sound had become boring. The album is made of distinct songs, ranging from energetic ones, which see a reinforcement of the rhythmical component which characterized them since their debut, to passionate ones, mixing cheerful and aggressive notes without any effort. If you think that visual kei has nothing to offer, maybe Arlequin’s latest work will surprise you.

-HONORABLE MENTIONS-

Seventeen Years Old and Berlin Wall - Abstract (05.08.2020)

The first mention of the month is for the not-so-known shoegaze band Seventeen Years Old and Berlin Wall, active since 2015 and become quite notable thanks to the indie music platform BandCamp. Their latest EP sees a really enigmatic sound, with shaded notes, electronic vibes and a cohesive rhythm, creating an unique atmosphere, driven by an awesome vocal work by the singers Yusei Tsuruta and Eriko Takano. Literally made for shoegaze lovers and not only.

Tatsuya Kitani - Demagog (26.08.2020)

Tatsuya Kitani might not be a familiar name for you, but maybe you know the Vocaloid band Sajou no hana, whose he is the bassist. Between a single and the other, he has found time to shape up a solo project of his own and releasing also some album. The latest one offers a catchy pop-rock sound, well driven by his good vocals, along with electronic, dance beats and funky vibes. Tatsuya Kitani may be another name which can rise within the Japanese pop scene and this album is definitely worth checking.

TRACKLIST

Hide and Seek

Panopticon

Dead Weight

Spoilman - Body (05.08.2020)

The final mention is for a pretty indie rock band, Spoilman, active since 2019 but came out only last year with an album. Their sound is quite adrenalinic, with roots into noise and punk rock, empowered by quite heavy vocals, energetic riffs and bass lashes, making each track more pumping of the previous. Spoilman can definitely shake the ground of Japanese rock and they deserve more recognition.

One of Takemiya Keiko’s artbooks ‘umi no tenshi’. It features a chapter of KazeKi after the events of the Manga. It’s bittersweet to read but rather ‘positive’ (as far as any of her stories go, right...)
