Cipher from fogposting here, I have been thinking about the reader living in the slasher / dbd killer house idea!

And what I would be interested in is how chores would be distributed 😂 who does what? Do they let Bubba cook?

(not sure if this counts as request, but feel free to ignore it if you don't want to write anything about this!)

Horror House

Since there is a big group of them that live together, the slashers have a humongous house so it’s right that everyone has to pitch in (at Norman’s demand).

Jason handles the house’s exterior maintenance, ensuring the walls and gates are secure, and also takes care of the yard work. He’s actually really good at gardening if you mean by growing a never-ending supply of deadly traps and pitfalls.

Michael is in charge of plumbing, but his fixes often lead to eerie, dripping sounds, and he also handles the house’s lighting, but only installs dim, flickering bulbs that cast ominous shadows (he purposely does that to scare the shit out of Danny, Billy, and Stu). His cooking skills are limited to boiling water, but he insists on making everyone eat his infamous Michael’s Mac ‘n Cheese of Doom. 

Freddy manages the house’s electrical system, but loves to play tricks with the lighting to try and scare the others (it doesn’t work). He also helps with running the house’s music and entertainment with his razor-sharp glove-uitar (Freddy named it that). It’s just him running his glove blades over the strings of an actual guitar and it doesn’t sound that great.

Bubba cooks meals for everyone alongside Hannibal and it’s some of the most fine homemade cooking you will ever taste. He also helps Norman with the house’s cleaning. He is actually very good at doing laundry. He makes sure each piece of clothing is neatly folded and put in the right person’s pile.

Nubbins assists Bubba in the kitchen, but mostly makes ruckus and gets in the way. He does actual gardening, but is not very good at it. The plants usually die within 3-4 days and maybe a week if he’s lucky.  

ChopTop does a lot of carpentry and woodworking, but his creations end up looking sinister and unuseful. He ends up antagonizing Bubba With his creations by chasing him and waving them around in his face. He also helps Drayton with finances, but only embezzles funds to make more of those twisted projects of his.

Drayton oversees the house’s finances and handles the house’s decorating using human skulls and bones (Norman and Hannibal had to take them down because it was making some of the other residents sick to their stomachs and relieved Drayton from decorating duty). He tries to help out with gardening, but it always ends with him chasing Nubbins around with a broom, leaving the garden unattended for hours (maybe that’s why the plants die so fast). 

Thomas takes care of the house’s leatherwork and upholstery, but uses human skin, and also handles the house’s security, but only installs traps and alarms that have led to endangering some of the residents. He’s actually a pretty good cook, but prefers to let Bubba and Hannibal do the cooking so he can keep his eye out for danger. 

Bo manages any machine or car maintenance. Since the slashers have to use reusable stuff, Bo is there to make sure that everything is intact and working. He tends to be out in the huge garage-like barn in the back of the house for hours, with Amanda, always fixing something.

Vincent oversees the house’s art and decor with the help of Brahms. He’ll spend hours down in the basement (his art studio) creating pieces to hang up around the house. He also handles the music being played around the house with his radio. He finds Freddy’s attempt at making music annoying. He’ll help out with the laundry sometimes too. He treats laundry like he treats his artwork.

Lester doesn’t stick around the house; he’s out of the house early to attend his roadkill pile. However, whenever he is home, Lester will assist Norman with taxidermy and chores. He’s only tried helping cook dinner once and almost burnt the whole house down. Let’s just say he was never let back into the kitchen again.

Norman takes care of a lot of the house’s cleaning and keeps the house pretty tidy for an extremely worn down house. In his free time, he does a lot of taxidermy to put up for display around the house to give it more personality. He can cook, but no one likes house cleaning so that takes up a lot of his time. 

Hannibal is the main chief of the house. He prepares exquisite, gourmet meals. He’ll prepare separate meals for anyone who is no in favor for his special ingredient, *cough* human *cough*. He also runs therapy sessions for anyone who needs it. He’s a great listener and gives great advice. He also helps with gardening every once and awhile if he’s not busy with other things. Nubbins is trying to find Hannibal’s secret to growing a successful garden because his plants last for years. 

Amanda spends her time designing and building traps for pests and rodents that are crawling around in the house. She’ll help Bo out with his projects if he gets stuck on something because she gets tired of hearing him groan and complain. Listen, the girl needs her concentration okay? 

Billy Loomis refuses to do almost anything that requires him to be responsible: Norman was lucky enough to even get him to clean his room. However, he does like to pull pranks on the other slashers and make mischief. He may or may not have gotten his throat slit open by Michael once for it though…

Stu works with the technology and gadgets of the house. However, he only uses them to play pranks on the other residents of the house and nothing really useful. Hannibal and Norman had to provoke his technology privileges quite a few times because the others were complaining. 

Chucky only exists to insult and annoy the hell out of everyone. What is he gonna do? He’s literally a doll. Actually, he does help with organizing stuff. If he sees something misplaced or moved, he’ll put it back into its original spot. He also helps his wife Tiffany out with her fashion work. 

Tiffany handles a lot of the house’s fashion and style. She designs and creates outfits for everyone so no one has to go clothes shopping. She is also another one who is a really good cook and helps out sometimes. Her specialty is baked goods and always makes the best desserts for after dinner.

Brahms helps with decorating. He’s very picky with how the house is decorated and wants the house to be decorated with only the finest things. Most of the stuff he hangs up is Vincent’s art pieces that range from canvas art to sculptures.

Billy Lenz looks after the ‘household’ cat (it’s actually his cat) Claude. He feeds,waters, grooms, and plays with the cat. He makes sure that no one has to think twice about taking care of Claude. He likes to keep Claude with him at all times because Michael tried to kill and eat him a few times.

Pyramid Head is the guard dog of the house. He makes sure the younger slashers aren’t getting too out of hand and staying out of trouble. The slashers are really trying not to draw too much attention to themselves.

Carrie helps out with chores and does most of the laundry. She uses her powers to make the clothes spontaneously combust and move things around to dust the spaces underneath objects. 

Jennifer takes care of the house’s beauty and makeup. She critiques the other slashers on their work ethic and tightness around the house (It’s much appreciated by Norman). She’ll make sure that everything is put in its proper place and looks presentable. She does Bubba and Carrie’s makeup a lot and is your go to girl for when prom rolls around. 

Danny surprisingly is a very efficient cleaner and will get random bursts of energy that has him deep cleaning the entire house. He will disinfect the entire house in an hour and a half, insisting that Norman takes a break for the day since that’s literally all he does everyday 24/7 3/65. He also cares for the firearms and weaponry.

Of Cupcakes and Skulls | Part 6

(A/N) This is a bit on the shorter side, but I honestly struggled with the description of the bakery. I hope that it's good enough that ya'll can paint a picture in your mind.

Pairing: single dad! Mafia! Simon x baker! Reader

Warning: kissies, fluff, angst, comfort, Simon is fucking smitten

Synopsis: Based on this post by @lunamoonbby

Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5 | Part 6 | Part 7 | Part 8 | Part 9

Simon chuckled quietly as he watched you stare at your shop. Your eyes were wide and your jaw hung open as he gently maneuvered you so he could get out of the car and pull you along with him. And once you were outside, you could see the entire storefront.

You didn’t know what detail to focus on first as you took in the changes that happened overnight. Until now, it had been a generic and rather boring exterior, something you always wanted, but never had the money to change. But now…it was beautiful.

The storefront was freshly painted in a dark green color, with metal accents decorating the usual plaster wall and a canopy overhead. The windows were sparkling in the sun, offering an easy view into the warm interior of the bakery, brimming with new furniture and counters. There were flowers everywhere, outside and inside, decorating and offering a sweet scent as you stepped closer. Additionally to the tables and chairs inside, there were a few scattered outside, in an area that was fenced off by wooden planters, and filled with tiny trees. Heaters hanging on the wall overhead, for the colder months.

You glanced back at Simon, who just smiled and gestured for you to walk inside. So you did.

As soon as you opened the door, a pleasant jingle rang through the air and the smell of the wood furniture filled your nose. You took a few more steps, hearing Simon following you inside, as you looked around. It felt warm and cozy, everything you ever hoped your bakery would feel like.

There were multiple showcases for your bread and pastries, as well as a whole nook for coffee and tea making, with brand-new machinery and cups. Just looking at everything, you knew it must’ve cost thousands of pounds. When you turned to look at Simon again, he was leaning against the wall next to the doorway that led to the kitchen. With a nod of his head, you walked through the revolving doors and entered…heaven.

You had already been happy with the equipment you had before, but now the room was filled with state-of-the-art machinery. Whether the giant mixer or the dishwasher, everything was brand new and extremely expensive. You knew that because you regularly gazed at them on the website, dreaming of the day you could afford them. And now you had them.

Suddenly, two strong, warm arms wrapped around you, pulling you against a hard chest. You relaxed against it, your eyes still flickering from one corner to the other, taking everything in.

“The windows are bulletproof, with multiple layers so they should be able to resist almost anything. And the door is a security door, it will lock automatically at a time you set and can only be opened by a combination of a key and code you have to enter into a keypad that’s beside the doorframe. I also went ahead and had the best alarm system installed, as well as cameras in the shop that are wired to the security firm, as well as to my people. If we see anything suspicious, we’ll be here within minutes.”

You turned around in his arms, wrapping yours around his waist, resting your chin on his chest as you peered up at him. He smiled down at you, pressing a quick kiss to the tip of the nose, before he straightened back up and spun you around, slowly walking you to the walk-in fridge. His grip on you tightened as he felt you tense up at the sight.

“We installed a new one.”

He was whispering in your ear, hot breath faning over your cheek.

“It almost functions more like a panic room than like a fridge. It can only be locked from the inside. The controls are also inside, so if something like last night ever happens again, they can’t play around with those. Also…”

He stopped in front of the door and opened it, gently leading you inside, where he pointed to a corner that was void of any shelves.

“This is a latch that leads into an actual panic room. Once inside, it locks down, and nothing except for maybe a nuclear bomb will be able to get in there. It’s outfitted with screens that show what’s going on up here, a landline, and a burner phone, as well as a bed and enough food and water to last three people two weeks. It has everything you could need in case anything happens. And as soon as it locks down, there will be an alert sent to my phone, as well to the phones of all of my employees.”

He spun you around again, gently cradling your face in his hands.

“Like I said, I won’t let anything happen to you. No matter where you are.”

You nodded, a soft smile on your face as he carefully wiped away the few tears that were running down your face. It had been so long since you felt so loved. Still, smiling, you watched as Simon slowly leaned down, your eyes fluttering shut as his lips ghosted over yours.

“Boss?”

Thanks to your proximity, you heard and felt him sigh, clearly annoyed, as he slowly pulled back, before he glanced toward the entrance to the kitchen. There was a tall, blonde man, clad in a dark suit. He glanced at you, before focusing on Simon.

“What is it, Graves?”

Simon’s arms remained around you as he glares at the man who just interrupted you two. The blonde man obviously felt uncomfortable as he kept glancing between the two of you before he finally spoke up.

“A call for you. It’s urgent.”

Simon nodded, pecking your lips before he pulled away and walked to the man, whispering a quick ‘I’m sorry’ as he was leaving. You just smiled as you watched him go, taking the opportunity to look around by yourself. You peeked into all the cabinets and every corner, finding new, amazing, and really expensive utensils. Even the cutlery was new, replaced by a set that had been designed by one of your favorite chefs.

The more you looked around, the more your fingers started to itch, wanting to try everything out. You walked to the wall, where you had installed a hook to hold your apron, and were pleasantly surprised when you saw that it was more or less the only thing that remained of your old bakery. As you were about to pull it on, Simon interrupted, clearing his throat as he leaned against the wall next to the swinging door that led into the kitchen.

“What are you doing?”

He looked at you, amusement swimming in his eyes. But you just shrugged.

“Bake something. I really want to try everything out.”

With a chuckle, he crossed the distance between you two, wrapping you up in his arms again.

“May I ask…with what ingredients?”

That’s when you finally realized that he was right. There was nothing here you could use to make something. Not even flour.

As you stood there, surprised and still, Simon squeezed you tightly, before taking your apron and hanging it on the hook.

“Come, that’s our next stop.”

Shepard-Vakarian Love Nest

garrus vakarian x fem shepard

summary: garrus installs a security system while shepard redecorates

a/n: finished me3 and immediately replayed the whole thing again with slightly different choices,,, i'm obsessed and I need to cope with the heartache of leaving garrus behind to save the universe xoxo space jesus </3

tags: fluff to cope with the ending of me3, flirting, established relationship, shepard instead of y/n, colonist background shepardf if you squint

ao3 version

"garrus this feels a little... overkill."

"that's the point shepard, to overkill anyone who tries to break in."

shepard rolled her eyes playfully and looked around the apartment with her arms crossed. there were sensors on every window and door in the sizable apartment. she managed to talk him down from installing explosives inside, convincing him that it would be way too much paperwork and too much of a risk if she accidentally set them off herself. however, she had to give her boyfriend credit where credit was due, it did make her feel safer. especially since he installed thicker bullet-proof window panes and rolling steel covers for emergencies.

while he was working on making shepard's home safer, she was busy with making andserson's former apartment into her own. she wanted to make it less of a bachelor pad and more of a proper place where she and garrus could hang their hats at the end of the day.

while it was originally supposed to be a getaway just for her, it was too quiet for her taste, and more often than not she has the current and former crew of the normandy over whenever she could.

but for now, it was just the two of them.

she was comparing the current wood of the kitchen cabinets to a new red sample that she picked up. it felt a little silly to be concerned about the colors of the apartment while there were reapers destroying planets, but everyone needed a break now and then. this might be the last shore leave she would ever have. it was somewhat morbid to think about, the last time she had shore leave it was forced on her after she defended elysium despite all odds.

while she was lost in thought, garrus snuck up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist, resting his chin on her shoulder, "hmm i like the red, but a darker burgundy would look better."

shepard hummed and leaned her cheek against his, "i think that would look nice, you have quite the eye vakarian."

"i'm aware. you know i have great taste. especially in partners," he purred into her ear and nipped softly at her neck.

shepard chuckled and turned around in his arms, lacing her hands behind his neck, "that i'll have to agree with you on." she slowly unlaced her fingers and ran her hands down the front of his chest armor, looking up into his gorgeous cobalt eyes, "so, did you find the best vantage point to shoot intruders from?"

garrus chuckled and scratched the back of his neck, suddenly looking very sheepish. if turians could blush, he would be bright red. "there are quite a few adequate spots, however, i'll wait until you're done fully redecorating to make the spots permanent."

"'ppreciate that honey," she smiled and stood on her tip toes, pressing a chaste kiss on his cheek plate.

shepard walked over to her personal computer and ordered the new redwood for the kitchen, along with new paint for the walls. all the white walls were so boring, customizing this place as her own home gave her hope, something that she could look forward to coming back to. having someone with her to share it with made it all the better, giving her hope for the future and something to look forward to once this was all over.

even if he does insist that they need the latest security systems that he personally has to inspect and install, not trusting anyone else to do it right.

of course, she also wanted garrus to add in his own decorations; pictures of his homeworld and family, traditional turian art pieces, etc. shepard was even planning to convert one of the empty bedrooms into a painting studio for him.

maybe one day they would fill it with human-turian babies, or a bunch of krogan, depending one how things went.

a/n: pls let me know if i made any grammatical or spelling mistakes <333

FFXIV Housing Builds

Talking to a pal feeling bummed about their housing decorating, and it's one I hear a lot, that they aren't "good at it" and compare themselves to the builders showing off their fancy and cozy and très chic builds and...

Look. We all know the trouble with Gpose, right? Where PC players with a hundred mods and ReShade and Anamnesis/Ktisis and maybe some post-processing work (and also photography/artist skills/knowledge) take some killer screenshots, and anyone with a console--or even other PC players--who don't have or know how (yet) to use all those tools, wail and gnash their teeth about how their (perfectly glamoured, nicely composed, decently lit, imaginative situations) screenshots just don't compare?

Same things with housing.

A lot of those super fancy builds? They're using half to a quarter of the available space. They're blocking off entire floors, and making camera angles for character screenshots nearly impossible by lowering the ceilings and closing in the walls. They're using a dozen slots to make a unique bed that may be functional.

It's aesthetics. It's playing puzzles. It's seeing what they can do, and it's pretty to look at, and cool to figure out, and neat for ideas...

But it's also not a requirement. It's not workable for every player or their FC. Some are! But some are also just experiments, or art installations.

I have a couple pals who are really into the fancy builds, who even do commissions for their work. We have a decorator lizard in our FC who needs the enrichment, but a requirement I have for the FC spaces are that they have to use the whole space. It has to be functional. It has to fit multiple members of the FC when they want to hang out, maybe take screenshots for storylines and RP and such. Can we fit a couple dozen people the rare times we host events?

Does that mean not a lot of random clutter, a lot of open space? Sure! But I can swing my camera around, fit multiple Roegadyn in a shot, and still have a nice looking, homey space that gets across the idea of what our FC is about. In my personal apartments and house, they're spaces that my characters would live in, and there's room for them and for friends to move around, hang out, take pics together.

Take inspiration from the housing builders! Admire their art and the work they put in, the puzzles they create when making a toaster oven out of six disparate housing items I'd never consider using that way holy cow!

But just like one shouldn't get hung up on the ultra-modded and post-processed screenshots, don't get hung up on the super fancy designer artisanal housing builds. It's a different aspect of the game, and often for different purposes.

Use the Preview Indoor/Outdoor Furnishings options in the housing menu to see what's available, use the websites that list housing items, fiddle around, mix and match, and make something fun that suits your screenshot needs and/or your character's idea of personal space. I promise you; you're doing just fine with your apartment/FC room/house if you're making it for you, even if it takes time to figure it out.

[flyingwargle]

the sendai frogs are in the studio, dressed in their uniforms and gear, as if they’re headed for a match, except the adversaries they face are hair and make-up, interns that direct their poses, and camera flashes bright enough to make anyone go blind.

tsukishima watches his teammates while leaning against the wall. kyoutani is beneath the spotlight, uniform blending into the green screen, looking more and more aggravated as interns move him to test different poses and angles. when he’s finally ready, a blinding shutter encapsulates the studio. kyoutani remains stiff as the photographer reviews the shot, then gives him a thumbs-up. he slouches away, and koganegawa takes his place.

“this is a waste of time.” he grabs his water bottle and squeezes the life out of it. “why do we need to do this?” tsukishima shrugs in reply. even though they’re a div. 2 team, they aren’t immune to publicity, especially if they were asked by the city museum to help promote the volleyball exhibition starting next month. tsukishima would’ve convinced his seniors otherwise, but as a junior, his words barely have any influence.

koganegawa is posed to be in mid-set, hands over his head, fingers wrapped in sports tape. he has a wide grin on his face, eyes sparkling like the camera flash that threatens to blind them. the photographer only needs a few shots before he’s done, and soon, it’s tsukishima’s turn.

he loops his sport glasses around his head and follows the intern to the green screen. all his teammates were posed in accordance with their positions, and he expects the same treatment as his fellow middle blocker: arms over his head, pretending to loom over an imaginary net. instead, he’s given a book – more specifically, the exhibition guide printed for patrons, the same one that he put together at work. “tsukishima-san, my idea for you is to read this while you’re positioned to block a volleyball,” the photographer tells him. “you don’t even need to look at the camera, just look at the text.”

well, that’s easy enough. he lets the interns angle him and position his arms. the guide just happens to be open to the introductory paragraph to the sendai frogs. he pretends to read, tries not to blink as the camera shutters go off. the photographer snaps a few more before he’s done, and he rejoins koganegawa and kyoutani.

“i wish i got a cool pose like yours,” koganegawa grumbles. “they said they’ll photoshop a volleyball in. why not just let me set an actual one?”

“you’ll break their equipment.” tsukishima slides his regular glasses back on. “i hope they don’t put it around where i live. i don’t want to see my face in public.” kyoutani nods in agreement.

“they’ll definitely put it around the museum,” koganegawa points out. “you’ll see it there.”

“i’ll pretend not to notice.”

their captain calls for them, and they gather to thank the studio for their help before changing into casual wear. the team heads out for food, and tsukishima is more than happy to put the studio behind him – hopefully for good.

--

the advertisements appear around sendai a week later, and the team’s group chat is filled with pictures of them. many depict their captain, nishimura, or their ace, kato. a crew installs banners and other promotional art inside the museum’s lobby and exterior, and by the month’s end, the exhibition is open to the public.

tsukishima trails behind yamaguchi and yachi, unamused that he has to visit his workplace on a rare day off. old banners for the v. league hang from the ceiling, with players like miya, kageyama, and bokuto appearing on more than one. the display cases have donated memorabilia from various teams and athletes, such as trophies and plaques, court shoes and volleyballs, and old uniforms.

“tsukki! come take a look at this!”

he already knows what yamaguchi is referring to. the hallway leading to the main exhibition is decorated with advertisements that feature the sendai frogs, starting with their captain and ace. kyoutani is depicted in mid-spike, volleyball photoshopped in. koganegawa is in mid-set, eyes fierce and long fingers curved around the ball. then, there’s tsukishima.

the editing was done well, he must admit. the net is phased out in front of his face, volleyball glancing off his outstretched arm, the museum guide opened in the other. the caption reads, “read blocking is key to any victory!” no, tsukishima didn’t come up with it, or he would’ve gone with something else.

yamaguchi has his phone out. “you’re famous!”

“shut up, yamaguchi.”

“sorry, tsukki! yachi, can you help me take a photo?”

she happily obliges and tsukishima rolls his eyes. he ducks his head when he hears whispers behind him, notices a few glances in his direction. why did he agree to come, again? damn hinata and kageyama for not being able to make it because of practice.

“what part of the exhibit were you in charge of?” yachi asks him.

“i just helped put everything together.” tsukishima pauses. “well, there is one section that i did work on. it’s near the back.”

away from the crowds around the v. league displays, tucked in the corner, is a small display for local high school volleyball teams. team photos for aoba johsai and niiyama girls, the most recent miyagi representatives for the spring tournament, are shown, along with a collage of photos of other teams – karasuno in action against shiratorizawa; dateko’s iron wall against jouzenji; wakunan against kakugawa, and so on. inside the display case is a medal and team photo. his friends recognize it instantly.

“wow,” yamaguchi breaths. “is that…?”

tsukishima nods. “i’ll get it back after the exhibition ends. thought it’d save my coworker the trouble of calling alumni to ask for donations when i could do it.”

“we have to call everyone to come!” yachi says excitedly. “they’ll be so excited to see it!”

tsukishima turns away from them, looking down at the medal. he isn’t sure if he should be offended that it’s considered an antique now, when the match against shiratorizawa in their first year still feels fresh in his mind. it’s both a symbol of growth and determination – growth for how far he’s come, determination for anyone who walks by and sees it, fueled with strength to stand on the orange court for themselves.

he can only imagine how much further he’ll grow, somewhat eager to see where the future will take him.

Forbidden Part 29

Words: 4.1k

As requested for smutty Sunday // warnings: Prof Van is a menace, degradation, overstimulation, it’s pretty dirty 🖤

Forbidden Masterlist Main Masterlist

"You've no idea how long I've been waiting for this moment."

"Me too," you murmur, your voice sounding tiny and fearful, like a little girl who's just wandered unsuspectingly into a lion's den. Except you're not unsuspecting. You walked into this willingly.

"Good," he replies with a smile which quickly fades, turning serious. "Because I need to know that you want this before anything happens, that's really important. I need your permission... your consent."

He enunciates the last word. Quiet descends. He keeps you locked in his gaze, his eyes slipping down briefly to hungrily appraise you before they travel back up. You wonder what's going through his mind, what he has planned for you. Your head swirls with filthy thoughts and dark fantasies but you know damn well it's the not knowing that's the biggest thrill of all. You'd blindly consent to absolutely anything right now and he knows it.

"I'm in," you breathe out quietly, trying with all your might not to show your nerves even though your insides are trembling like a leaf in the breeze. "I'm..." you pause to clear your throat which is choked up. "I'm yours... all yours. I'll do anything you want. You can do anything you want."

That makes him smile. "You can trust me you know," he says, finally pushing himself off from the door and stepping towards you. "I won't hurt you... well, not too bad anyway," he adds with a smirk before stepping past you. You sense him pausing behind you. "I know you love all of that you dirty girl."

Fuck... your panties are already drenched and he's not even touched you yet.

"Come with me... I have a surprise for you," he says, an air of mystery carrying to you as you turn to watch him walk through a doorway further down the hall.

You follow on, your heart racing as your mind runs wild with visions of him leading you to some secret bdsm sex dungeon that he's had installed in his basement, so when you enter a large tastefully decorated living room you allow yourself to breathe once again.

"Wow you have a beautiful home," you murmur conversationally, wondering whether small-talk's appropriate in this situation.  "All this stuff, it's gorgeous... looks old... but kinda timeless if you know what I mean. What's the word I'm looking for? Classic, that's it."

You take in the expensive looking hand-crafted furniture and the impressive art hanging on the walls, wondering whether Van had much hand in the interior decorating or whether it was all Kathleen.

Don't think about her!

You try to shunt the unwelcome thought from your mind but it's impossible. You are in their home after all. You quickly scan the surroundings for a trace of her, maybe a scarf or a handbag slung over a chair or even a photo of the two of them displayed, anything which would show Van shared this space with his fiancée but you come up with a blank. Everything seems neat and ordered, like a show home. The only thing remotely out of place is a solitary chair sitting in the middle of the room with a jacket draped over it and a huge frame hanging on the wall at the far end covered with a dust sheet. You just pray there's not a giant framed portrait of the happy couple underneath. The thought makes you nauseous.

"Thank you," Van says graciously. "I like to surround myself with beautiful things. I collect antiques, I source them from all over. I've always got my eye out for the next piece." He turns towards the frame, reaching up to tuck his fingers around the corner of the sheet. "I actually picked this up earlier today. I think you'll like it. You were on my mind when I bought it if you must know."

This stuns you and you can't keep the shock out of your voice. "Me?"

"Yes you." He tugs the sheet and it falls away to reveal a huge mirror with a gold gilt frame, the silver surface reflecting an image of you both back. It's so large it practically fills the wall and expands nearly down to the floor. You're no expert on antiques but you can tell by the ornately carved baroque frame and the tarnished gold that it's old and therefore likely cost a small fortune. You blow out a breath through pursed lips, impressed.

"Must have cost you a few quid," you marvel. You surreptitiously check out your reflection whilst you have the chance, silently thanking Lizzie for her suggestion as your glossy cherry red lips pout seductively back at you.

"Excellent craftsmanship like this doesn't come cheap," Van says, hands running over the frame appreciatively. His lips quirk into a smile. "But I think it's worth it, particularly on this occasion."

Why's he talking so mysteriously? You decide to probe him further, pointing at his new purchase. "It's gorgeous, but ... errr... what's it got to do with me? I don't understand."

He turns to fully face you. "You will. You like to be on display don't you? You like to be looked at... watched." He moves towards you and you tense, half expecting... or hoping... that he'll pounce on you, but to your surprise he moves past. "Well, I like to watch too."

You're still puzzled, heart fluttering like crazy in anticipation. You shift where you stand, trying to stand tall and confident, lifting your chin proudly as he moves around you. He's circling you like prey, making you feel small and vulnerable. You're in his territory now and he wants you to feel that, the imbalance of power that he thrives on. It makes you ache for him all the more.

"Take off your clothes," he says suddenly and your jaw almost hits the floor.

"What? Right now?"

"Yes right now, was my instruction not simple enough for you?" He's in front of you again, unbuttoning his shirt cuffs and rolling his sleeves up to the elbows. He watches you whilst he does it, hardness etched into his features. The intensity of his gaze makes twisted exhilaration writhe in your gut. It conveys a promise of punishment... a promise of a good time.

You hesitate for a moment before your shaky fingers reach down to grip the hem of your dress. The same dress you'd taken a ridiculous amount of time deciding on wearing, agonising over the entire contents of your wardrobe, wondering what Van would find you prettiest in. Five minutes through the door and he wants you out of it. You weren't expected to get softly wooed over a candlelit meal but even so you were hoping for a chance to tease.

"Don't test my patience," he warns sternly. "I thought we'd agreed you needed to be taught how to behave. You'd be wise to start doing as you're told."

"Yes Sir," you answer meekly, dutifully tugging the dress upwards. Over your thighs, your hips, your midriff, your chest, then over your head where it gets cast into a heap on the floor and you're standing before him in your favourite lingerie set, deep burgundy satin and delicate lace. But even that doesn't seem to impress him.

"All of it," he orders sharply, gesturing with a hand. This time you don't hesitate, reaching around to unclasp your bra and letting it fall to the floor at your feet. His composure slips then, but barely, his eyes roaming over your breasts as he rolls his tongue over his bottom lip. "And your panties too..." he pauses to smile devilishly. "I'm surprised you're actually wearing any for once."

This makes you crack a grin, and you do as instructed, sliding the silky material down your hips and bending to step out of them. You go to kick off your heels but he demands that you keep them on and you mentally thank Lizzie once again. You certainly look a hell of a lot sexier standing there bare in your strappy stilettos than you would in a pair of old battered converse.

You've been naked in front of Van several times before but that doesn't make you feel any more at ease. The fact that he's fully dressed in contrast and the intensity with which he scrutinises you fires you up, self-consciousness engulfing you. You don't have time to dwell on it though or cover yourself with your hands. He steps swiftly forward, slipping behind you, cool fingers snaking around your hips. As he pulls you flush against his body and starts to walk you backwards, sinking into the chair and taking you down with him his filthy intentions start to become clear. The silvery reflection of the mirror captures everything in crystal clear precise detail. There's nowhere to hide.

"You've been a bad girl Y/N... a very bad girl. And we both know what happens to bad girls, don't we?"

As he talks his touch skates lightly down your sides and hips to along your outer thighs before dipping in between, firmly pushing your legs apart. You resist for all of about two seconds before you let your legs go slack and he spreads them wide, hooking his feet around your ankles so they're pushed firmly against the chair legs. You can see the wetness glimmering between your thighs and you squirm in embarrassment, dipping your head, shying away from your reflection.

"They get... punished?" You whisper, your voice shaky and breathless with the amount of adrenaline thrumming through your veins.

"Yes, that's right. Yes they do."

Christ... what have you signed yourself up for here? You're so wound up so tight you feel like you could fucking explode. You don't know what to do with your hands, fingers flexing nervously in your lap before reaching down to brush against his thighs and then finally finding the wood of the seat of the chair, nails digging in in an attempt to stave off some of your nervous energy. Van has other ideas and you gasp out loud as he roughly grabs your wrists, pulling them together at the small of your back. You hear a metallic clink before you catch sight of a pair of handcuffs which he snaps into place, rendering you even more helpless.

An airy whimper escapes your lips and he pulls you even further back against his chest, a hand wrapping around the base of your throat, firm and controlling. He tilts your head upwards so that you'll meet his dark-eyed penetrating gaze in the mirror head on. It makes you shiver with nerves and arousal... it makes your pussy literally throb.

"Just look at you," he croons into your ear, thumb stroking across the expanse of your neck where you can feel your pulse skittering wildly. "Pretty as a picture. All spread out for me."

You have no choice but to look at the depraved display before you, your skin crawling hotly with arousal and humiliation, your cunt clenching around nothing.

"No matter how many times I make you come you always want more. Seems to me that you just can't be satisfied... am I right?"

"No... I mean yes... I mean, I don't know, I really don't know Sir," you stumble, struggling to even think straight in your flustered state. You're completely at his mercy and it thrills you.

"You don't know? Well, let's find out shall we?"

The fingers from his free hand brush lightly over a nipple before he rolls it gently between his fingers and you're so on edge that your whole body spasms from the contact. He chuckles, eyes gleaming with mocking amusement at your responsiveness.

"Already so desperate for me. Pathetic. I'm gonna enjoy this. I'm gonna make you come over and over until you can't even remember your own name. That's what a desperate little slut like you deserves don't you think? Maybe I've not been giving this needy cunt enough attention."

His voice comes smooth with a cutting bite, gravel coated in honey as he coos directly into your ear, hungrily watching your reflection as a hand dips straight between your legs, parting your slick folds. He runs his index and middle finger teasingly up and down your slit, your arousal more apparent than ever. You're not just wet, you're drenched, your skin glossy and shimmering in the light.

"Perfect," he snickers darkly, face pressing into the side of your neck, breathing you in. "Always so wet for me. Good girl."

You can't speak, words and thoughts escaping you, your brain turned to mush. You wonder how it is that you can even still breathe, each inhale and exhale a struggle in your heightened state. He dips the tips of two fingers into you lightly, collecting your slick which he drags up to spread around your clit, pressing down and circling slowly in a way that makes you whine. You sound pitiful. Desperate. Needy. Electric sparks of pleasure radiate out through your body and you shudder. You know that you're not going to last. He's definitely not going to deny you tonight, it's the complete opposite. You should really try to hold on but it feels so blissful it's taking you all your restraint not to rut against his fingers like a mindless animal.

You can already feel the initial throes of your orgasm building deep inside, hot and wet, the pressure mounting inexorably. The rough pads of his fingertips slide quickly and slippery against your nub of nerves, his pace quickening steadily as your thighs start to quiver, your nails digging harshly into your palms. You didn't want to give too much of yourself too soon. You desperately wanted to hold something back, something that you could grasp on to, but it's impossible. It feels too good and the sight of you there in the mirror, pupils dilated with lust and legs spread wide and shamelessly tips you over the edge.

Your climax slams through your system in a harsh rush. It makes you moan out loud, body shaking as much as your restrained position will allow. Van watches on intently, a smirk on his lips which is half playful, half sadistic satisfaction and your heart pounds with dread and excitement at the knowledge that this will only be the first of many. His intentions to break you now are clear and you wouldn't want anything less.

"Got anything to say for yourself?" He says tauntingly as he spreads your cum all over your folds, your pussy slick and exposed in such a prone position.

"Errr.... thank you Sir..." you breathe uncertainly, your hips lifting pathetically to chase his touch even as it moves away.

"You always come so easily for me," he murmurs smugly. "You're gonna be a real mess so soon." You cringe as he thrusts his hand in your face, a silvery strand of your cum glistening in the light as he parts his index and middle finger.

"Well go on then... suck them clean like a good little slut." You do exactly as he commands, letting him push his sticky fingers past your lips. They press down firmly on your tongue, the invasion making you gag, your eyes instantly pricking with tears. Your lips instinctively firm around his fingers, sucking them in, loving the way they fill and stretch your mouth, the salty-sweetness of your own taste tart on your tongue.

"Aww you made yourself all pretty for me as well didn't you baby? Well let's just see how pretty you look when I'm done with you shall we?"

His burning gaze in the mirror follows the curve of your ripe red lips as he pulls his fingers nearly free before thrusting them in again, deeper this time, forcing a choked whine from you. Your carefully applied lipstick smears all over your lips and chin which is shiny with drool as he drives his fingers in over and over. They slip over your tongue, pushing right to the back of your throat, making you gag again. Tears pearl in your eyes before they overspill and begin to track down your cheeks, black rivulets of mascara further sullying you. You look a mess already. A fucked out slutty mess.

"Beautiful," he mutters in appreciation.

As much as you daydream about a hidden gentle side to Van that he might keep tucked away it's this side of him that thrills you the most. His merciless and cruel side, the one who takes the greatest pleasure in defiling you. And he's only just getting started.

"So now I wanna hear about what you've been up to," he says, pulling his fingers free suddenly, spittle dribbling down your chin in strings. "Wanna hear all about the fun you've been having without me."

He tugs roughly on a nipple before his hand dips straight back between your legs. He's not gentle, sinking his spit-soaked fingers straight into your cunt knuckle-deep without warning, the harsh action making you hiss. It punches the breath from your lungs with a high-pitched whine as you spasm and clench around him involuntarily. "Well... go on then... I'm waiting... tell me everything. Every little detail. But first I wanna know whose idea it was."

"It was all Johnny!" You blurt out quickly, struggling with your words as he begins to roughly piston his fingers in and out of you, catching a spot at each thrust that soon has your thighs trembling, tensing and burning in your taut position. "He took me... for a ride... he wanted it... he wanted it so bad. That's the only reason he picked me up." Sweat's breaking out in tiny beads all over your skin, your flesh lustrous and slick in the mirror as you writhe helplessly on his lap. Your eyes are glassy and glazed, struggling to focus.

"Is that so?" He mutters, the sneer on his lips telling you that he can see right through your lies, his reflection taunting you, daring you to defy him. "That's not how I think it went down... not at all. See if know you... and I'm pretty sure I have you all worked out... I think you were the instigator. I bet you offered yourself up to him like a cheap whore... hmm?" He increases his pace, fucking you mercilessly with his fingers until you can feel the ache blooming in your core, the swell of another climax rising rapidly as his thumb slides over your sensitive clit. He presses down in tune with your groans, circling it harsh and relentless.

"I didn't... I didn't... I swear... FUCK!" You gasp out, your words twisting into moans as the second climax rips through your body. It's even more intense than the first, liquid fire snaking through your veins as your body convulses before you go slack. You'd probably collapse if Van wasn't holding you upright, fingers from one hand still gripping your throat below your jaw so you're forced to watch the debauched show.

And this time he doesn't even give you a break, honing in on your sensitivity, hyper-focussed on your nub until you're sobbing and thrashing on his lap, your arse rubbing against his rock hard erection which only serves to turn you both on even more.

"Tell me the truth," he grunts sharply, fingers sliding up to grip your jaw as he feels resistance in your muscles. "Tell me the fucking truth or I swear you're gonna regret it."

You could tell him the truth. You consider it momentarily, but where's the fun in that? You both know damn well that you're lying and the more you needle him, the more furious he gets. The wilder his eyes, the rougher his actions, the harsher his words. You're biding your time, the crescendo of your punishment the ultimate temptation. When you reach it you don't want him to go easy on you.

"I was... ahhh... trying... fuck... trying so hard... to to be... good," you manage to croak out, your voice ruined, coming in snatches in between whines and whimpers. "I was thinking... about what you said... ahh shit... but he persuaded me... he begged me... I couldn't say no."

You can't take your eyes off his hands in the mirror, the shadows of his protruding veins, the tendons flexing in his wrists as he pumps his fingers into you. The sounds are absolutely obscene, sloppy and wet as your slick drips out of you, coating his fingers and soaking into his jeans. You'd probably feel utterly humiliated by the depraved display before you if you weren't so far gone.

"Fucking lies!" He growls, and suddenly he tears his hand away, reaching around to dig into the pocket of the jacket hanging on the chair. "Maybe this will jog your memory."

You're confused, blinking in surprise at the sudden reprieve, but your relief is short-lived as you see him pull a vibrator free. He switches it on quickly and before you can even draw a breath he's pressing it firmly against your swollen clit, shivers of intense pleasure shooting through you like fireworks.

"Fuck... Sir... please..." You whine but you never get to finish your sentence. Another orgasm overwhelms you, sharp and visceral, the sudden intensity pulling you under, your mind hazing over as Van presses the toy tight to your most sensitive spot, merciless as you shake and groan for him.

"Fucking hell... fucking hell... I can't... FUCK!" You babble mindlessly, eyes rolling back before they fall shut, the blackness behind your eyelids a tiny respite from the assault to your overwrought senses. You can't even tell whether you're in pleasure or pain anymore but it hardly matters, it all melds into one, a delicious combination that you succumb to willingly, drowning in blissful torture as you feel yourself unraveling. You try to speak... form something coherent, but a broken, pathetic whimper bubbles from your lips instead.

"Eyes open!" He orders you, his ragged breath hot on your neck, but instead of obeying you squeeze your eyes shut even firmer. You're sure he ramps up the vibrations to full throttle but you're too fucked out to tell. "I said open your fucking eyes Y/N! I'm not finished with you yet."

You're spiralling, your head lolling back against his shoulder, his chest hot as a furnace on your sticky back. You crack open your eyes just in time for another intense swell to obliterate you, the sensations from the vibrator harsh and ruthless against your clit, forcing your body into spasm after spasm. The blinding pleasure stretches on for so long you feel like you're losing your grip on all sense of time and reality. You're tender and sore like an exposed nerve and you sob like something broken, your vision blurry with tears.

You drag your eyes upwards in the mirror to look at Van. Even though you're the one being overstimulated he looks half-ruined himself, eyes hooded and glassy, cheeks flushed, hair dampened with sweat. His lips are slightly parted where they're pressed against the curve of your neck, his breathing heavy and laboured as he watches you with that luscious ice blue gaze like he wants to eat you alive, devour you right down to the bone until there's nothing left. You can feel the hardness of his cock, thick and warm and tempting pressing into your ass through his jeans. God you want him. You want him so bad.

"You're doing so good," he whispers, an unexpected soft tone as he presses his lips gently to your neck, finally shifting the vibrator away. "Think you can take more?"

You're pretty sure your body reached its limit an orgasm ago but you're too stubborn to tap out and besides... he's too fucking perfect like this. You feel like you're the sun at the centre of his universe, bright and burning up, incandescent. You don't think you ever want him to stop whilst he's looking at you like that.

You swallow hard, trying to anchor yourself. "I want it Sir... please. I've been bad. It was me... it was all me. I did it, I persuaded Johnny. I touched myself in front of him, I told him I wanted his cock. I begged him to fuck me. I'm nothing but a cheap dirty slut and I deserve to be punished for it."

He grips your jaw and tilts your face up to his, his gaze locking on to yours, sharp and dark and dangerous. Utterly irresistible. "It doesn't matter who you fuck Y/N, you're mine." His lips close over yours and he licks into your open mouth, kissing you deep and hard and possessive, only pulling away when you're gasping for breath. "And now I'm gonna show you exactly who you belong to."

Joyce Kozloff, If I Were an Astronomer (Mediterranean), 2014, Mixed media on canvas,72 x 54 inches.

Kozloff tells: "Throughout my career, I have tried to fuse a love for widespread artistic traditions with an activist temperament. Beginning in 1970, energized by my participation in the feminist art movement in Los Angeles and New York, I became a founding member of the Heresies publishing collective and an originating figure of the Pattern and Decoration movement. My colleagues and I were exploring the applied and decorative arts, especially visual cultures of the nonwestern world, as source and inspiration. We wanted to break down the high art/low art hierarchies inherent in the West. As a result of these early discussions and excursions, my patterned paintings eventually moved right off the canvas, evolving into installations composed of hand painted, glazed ceramic tiles and pieced silk wall hangings.

During the 1980s, I concentrated on grand, ambitious public commissions, many in transportation centers, executed in ceramic tile and/or glass and marble mosaic, completing fifteen between 1979 and 2003. Out of a desire to communicate with a broader audience, these pieces have local and regional subject matter, sometimes ironically tweaked, sometimes catalogued as an almost archaeological enterprise. I have long rejected the academic disdain for visual opulence – in fact, my dissident political understanding could only be materialized through sensuous processing. Public art presents challenges of scale and context, but also of language and iconography. In the early twenty-first century, I had the opportunity to create pieces in Japan and Turkey, adapting their rich ornamental traditions to my contemporary collage aesthetic. One starts an architectural project with charts of the site."

Artistic Edge: The Impact of Modern Paintings On Contemporary Decor

The dynamic fusion of painting modern art with interior design brings out an exceptional elegance to contemporary decor. From paintings abstract to canvas paintings and oil paintings, they have become an integral part of beautifying the home environment. Let’s see how these items for room decoration beautifully accentuate living spaces, revealing a significant impact of modern paintings on today’s interior designs.

Creating A Visual Impact: Incorporating Modern Paintings In Contemporary Decor

Incorporating modern paintings in contemporary decor adds not only a sense of artistic touch but also creates a stunning visual impact. Explore how integrating modern paintings can breathe life into your contemporary decor and reflect your style.

1. Paint And Palette: Choosing The Right Colours For Your Art Display

Warm colours such as red, orange, and yellow can evoke feelings of happiness or anger, while cool colours like blue, green, and purple can evoke calm or sadness. A painting modern art with a sunset may benefit from warm, bold colours while a seascape might work best with soothing blues and greens.

Pay attention to the balance and contrast between colours. If you want something to stand out, contrast it with its complementary colour. For example, if you are painting a tree, using dark greens against light blues or paintings such as Luminous Oasis Resin Art Painting that can make the wall paintings for home stand out.

2. Centric Concept: Building A Theme Around Modern Art

A common characteristic of wall paintings for home is the use of geometric patterns. A great example is where squares and rectangles are arranged in an asymmetric balance. This could be replicated in design concepts or architecture.

A commercial using paintings for living room styles and themes, such as abstract expressionism or pop art, can give an edgy, innovative look.

3. Abstract Art: Making A Bold Statement In Modern Decor

Instead of placing traditional landscape wall paintings for home as items for room decoration, why not hang a vivid piece of paintings abstract art that features colourful triangles, circles, or hexagons? Paintings such as The Royal Blue Thames Abstract 100% Hand Painted Wall Painting (With Outer Floater Frame) instantly transform the room into a modern space and act as an impressive conversation starter.

Play with the idea of negative space in your paintings for living room. Use the absence of colour or a subject to make your focal point stand out. For instance, a red circle on a blank white oil painting can instantly draw the viewer’s eye.

4. Aesthetics And Exhibits: Constructing A Gallery Wall

Measure your wall and using a design app, software or paper, plot out where each painting for living room will hang, taking into consideration the shape and size of each artwork.

Do not forget about the space between oil paintings. A common thumb rule is to keep about 2-3 inches between larger paintings such as Mystical Moment 100% Hand Painted Wall Painting (With outer Floater Frame), and 1.5-2.5 inches for smaller pieces. This helps each piece to stand out on its own.

5. Illumination Integration: Blending Art And Lighting In Modern Decor

Consider installing wall lights around your artwork as items for room decoration. This can be as simple as track lighting or spotlights directed towards the art, or more elaborate like integrating LEDs directly into the piece’s frame.

When mirrors are used together with artwork, it not only amplifies the artwork but also multiplies the lighting effect uniquely and dramatically.

Emerging Artistic Evolution: Trends In Modern Painting

Modern painting is undergoing a revolutionary shift as contemporary artists push boundaries and experiment with new techniques. These bold explorations are redefining artistic standards, giving rise to fresh trends in modern painting. Listed below are the evolving modern painting trends and how they are influencing the modern artistic landscape.

1. Hyperrealism: Redefining Modern Art Aesthetics

Hyperrealism is a modern art trend that seeks to create paintings or sculptures that mimic reality to a degree that they often appear clearer than photos. Using high-resolution cameras and digital images for guidance, artists employ painstaking detail, vibrant colours, and layered techniques to achieve lifelike effects. This unique genre blends precise technical skills with conceptual depth, presenting a sharp commentary on the nature of reality and perception such as Amalfi Coast Framed Canvas Print.

2. Graffiti Revolution: Street Art And Its Place In Contemporary Decor

The graffiti revolution trend brings street art into contemporary décor. Street art, previously confined to public spaces, is now increasingly popular in home and office designs. This art trend blends modern aesthetics with edgy graffiti designs. Featuring vibrant colours, bold strokes, and often politically charged themes, graffiti-style artwork makes a powerful statement. It provides a way for individuals to express their identity, making their spaces uniquely theirs while adding an urban edge to the interior décor with paintings such as Streets of Manhattan Hand-painted Wall Art (With Outer Floater Frame).

3. Beyond Imagination: The Power Of Conceptual Art In Modern Decor

Conceptual art focuses on ideas and intellectual content, as it subverts the traditional understanding of art, pushing the boundaries of imagination. It has grown increasingly popular in modern décor due to its abstract aesthetic and unique ability to provoke thought. Bold use of colours, asymmetric designs and innovative textures are notable trends in this genre. Whether it is sculptures, paintings, or installations, conceptual art infuses modern décor with a distinct edge and sophistication, while stimulating critical thinking.

4. Mother Nature’s Canvas: Exploring The Rise Of Eco Art

Eco-art is a contemporary trend involving the integration of natural elements within artistic creation, gaining popularity as environmental consciousness grows. Artists utilize materials like soil, plants, and recycled materials to emphasize the beauty and fragility of canvas paintings. Some incorporate climate change themes or promote sustainability through their work. It challenges conventional gallery aesthetics, often existing outside in the environment, where elements like weather continually reshape the piece.

5. Illuminating Creations: Neon Art Spectacle

Neon art represents a trend in modern art featuring vibrant neon lights. Artists sculpt dazzling, illuminated structures to evoke specific emotions, deliver powerful messages or express artistic views. The distinctive glow and hue of neon create immersive environments, pushing the boundaries of creativity and conventional visual aesthetics.

Modern paintings significantly impact contemporary decor by introducing vibrant aesthetics, versatility, and uniqueness. They influence design elements, personalizing spaces and acting as central pieces that shape the colour palette and overall ambience of rooms.
