EVERYBODY SHUT UP!

I JUST FOUND OUT THAT THE TASTE I THOUGHT WAS CHAMOMILE IS ACTUALLY HONEYCOMB???

I bought some raw honeycomb to eat and was thrown for the biggest loop of my life when the honeycomb tasted like chamomile???

I checked to make sure I hadn't bought anything infused, and I didn't. That's just what the honeycomb taste like????

Anyway my life is a lie And I don't know what chamomile taste like.

Mint: Tell my best friend I love her.

Beewax: I thought I was your best friend.

Mint: You are.

Beewax: Okay, you want me to tell me you love me?

Mint: Yes.

Beewax: Alright, well, that just seems like an overly complicated way to say that, but here goes. I love you, Beewax. From Mint... Yeah, that's really nice.

How Do Bees Make Wax? A Marvel of Nature!

Do you ever pause and just bask in the extraordinary design and intricacy of a honeycomb? Those exquisite hexagons brimming with glorious honey... it's almost too perfect to be real. But the real mind-blower is this - it's all the handiwork of bees. Let's go on a journey into the heart of a beehive, and see the miraculous process of wax-making in action.

Understanding Bee Wax

Let's set the stage. We're talking bee wax. That's right, it's a substance bees themselves whip up to build the iconic honeycomb. This serves as their humble abode and a pantry to stash their honey. Already blown away? Hold on, there's more!

The Origins of Bee Wax

Now, where does this wax come from? It all begins with what bees love the most - nectar. It's like a bee's version of a delicious smoothie, collected from a variety of flowers. They convert this nectar into honey.

And when the bees are nicely fed and the temperature in the hive is just right, the magic begins. Special glands on the bees' bellies get to work, producing minute flakes of wax.

Turning Wax Flakes into Honeycombs

So, how do these petite wax flakes end up as the architectural masterpiece that is a honeycomb? The answer lies in the power of teamwork and a little bee elbow grease.

The youthful worker bees, with their wax-producing glands, take these small flakes and start chewing. The chewing softens and molds the wax, and then the bees skillfully shape it into the distinctive hexagonal cells we see in honeycombs.

The Secret Behind Hexagons

Want to know a fun fact? The reason bees build hexagon-shaped cells is efficiency. The hexagon is the shape that uses the least wax for the maximum honey storage. Talk about smart design!

And there we have it, folks. An inside look at the journey from nectar to honey, honey to wax, and wax to an awe-inspiring honeycomb. Nature sure is an endless wonder, isn't it? So, until next time, stay curious and keep exploring!

The two new candles I poured and added in the shop. I love them so much. I sadly lacked of wax when I poured the skull one so.... it's missing some teeth.

Event ; Kinktober - Day 1, Wax play

Pairing : Jason Todd x GN!Reader

Content / Warning : Big chunk of the fic is pre-activity talk (reader introduce the kink and talks / sets boundaries with Jason around it, because that is a huge part of kinks / BDSM that i wanted to put in at least one of my piece for kinktober) and there is aftercare, no penetrative sex ( wax play + hndjob ), reader is the one leading and Jason is the one on the receiving end, Jason call reader 'sweetie', its said that Jason is usually the one giving / you are usually on the receiving end, a bit of nipples teasing toward the end. (this is 1.5K words, wrote in around 3hours, on the 30sept, its 10am please be indulgent lol)

Jason was a bit taken off guard when you asked him if he had any 'kinks' he wished to engage in, sexuality was not a taboo for him, and it's not like you both never did anything sexual or engaged in not vanilla activity in the bedroom. He just didn't expect to get asked this question, at 8am while he was drinking a very bitter - and honestly disgusting - cup of coffee after sleeping for a grand total of 5 hours, courtesy of a certain group of thugs deciding to cause problem in the dead of the nigh - and courtesy of being the vigilante that had to deal with them.

He took a second before answering a simple 'uh maybe ?', before returning to his cup of liquid dirt not expecting you to continue this conversation that you seemingly started out of nowhere. But much to his dismay you continued, 'because, I've been wanting to ... uhm, to try something out ...!' with a sly smile on your face.

Jason decide to entertain you, why not after all ? It's just 8am on a weekend, what the worst that could happen ?

He nodded, encouraging you to continue, but instead of continuing speaking you pulled a candle from g-d knows where, and set it in front of Jason. He looked at it with a questioning look, he grabbed the candle, 'So, you mind expanding or ?' he asked.

'Well ... I'd like to try wax play ! And you kinda need a candle for that ...' You answered, before waiting a second you continued, 'This one is like, ... skin safe ? Not harmful, so safe for ... that kind of stuff ! I think its made out of beewax ? Or soy, either one of the two', he nodded once again, signalling that he understood. He took a long sip of coffee, finishing his cup, 'Okay, so basically I pour, uh, wax on you and that's the kink ?', before adding with a sly grin 'You did your researcher uh ?'.

'I was actually thinking about you, being on the, uh receiving end ? If you are okay with that ! Couldn't want to force you into anything, and that's why I asked if you had anything you wanted to do in the bedroom.' You stopped for a second before continuing 'It's like a two way street that way!'.

Jason stared at you deadpan for a moment, he did not expect that, usually you were the one that 'received' and he was the one that 'gave'. He gave it a thought and just said a simple 'Huh, if that's what you want sweetie, I'm open to it.'

Truly, he was open to it, what you proposed still seemed relatively tame and he could be lying if he said it didn't sound appealing.

(still havent found a way to just do a timeskip, sorry for the immersion breaking parentheses but this is better than just starting the next scene directly in the bedroom, later in the day)

Jason was seated on the edge of the bed, looking the set up you carefully put together, on the bed you laid a towel, because obviously neither of you two wanted to get wax onto your bed, but the towel wasn't one of those rough one, you had carefully chosen one that was soft but couldn't be missed if ruined. On your bedside table was placed the candle you showed him earlier, and on his, there was an somewhat damp rag and a small glass of water and a small tube of burn cream - which you simply took out of your first aid kit as well as a box of tissues, on the floor there was a larger bucket of water, off to the side, as you said it was 'Just in case something happen, you cannot be too sure!'.

As he heard your footsteps coming closer toward the door he decided to already strip himself of his shirt, you opened the door, entering the door with in hands a packet of matches, 'Found them ! They were actually still in the kitchen drawer', you said while making your way over to the bed.

You sat next to him and reached over to grab the candle, you looked up and smiled at Jason, 'You're sure you still want that ? Of course we can still stop in the middle of it but, are you sure right now ?', Jason grinned and answered, 'I am a 100 percents sure sweetie, don't worry, I trust you'.

You took a match out of the book and lighted it up, you brought the burning match over to the wix of the candle, as the wix took the flame, you brought the match over you and softly blow on it, blowing out the fire. You decided to let the candle burn a bit before using it, to make sure there was nothing wrong it, in the meanwhile, you signalled to Jason to lie down with his head on your tights, you brushed your fingers through his hair lovingly.

You took the candle in one of your hand and dropped a bit of wax on your other hand to check if it was good to go, you hummed and then looked at Jason, 'Okay where I go', you leaned the candle over Jason chest, the candle wax slowly dropped, drop by drop of red coloured wax fell on Jason chest.

You tilted the candle back up, Jason did let out a small hiss when the first drop reached him but he seemed fine, his face was a bit flushed and when his eyes meet yours, he gave you a small smirk. You took it as a sign to continue, tilting once again the candles over his chest, this time lower down it, and for a bit longer this time, 'Are you enjoying that baby ?', you asked, more so to tease him more than anything. Jason had been very aloof, and made it seem like he was going along it for you - that it didn't brother him to try but it was not something that he was very into, but he was betrayed by the tent that had formed in his pant.

You put down the candle on the bedside table for a bit, which earned you a small whine from Jason, but ignoring it, you reached over to unbutton his pant, and pull his penis out of his boxer. You gently gave it a few strokes, making beads of pre-cum get on your hand, before grabbing the candles once again, Jason face's was now flushed, he was groaning at the loss of your cold-ish hand on his dick which made him feel a weird, pleasurable contrast between the feverish sensation on his chest and the feeling of your hand on his lower-half.

While stroking him, you let a few drops of candles wax hit his body again, this time going higher, toward his nipples, a more sensible part of Jason's body.

Jason moaned softly as he felt the heat propage to his nipples, he rutted his dick against your hand, and started to lowly beg you to 'go faster' 'harder' 'more please'.

You decided to oblige him, you didn't want to drag this session on too much, after all this was your first one, and Jason was starting to look clearly overstimulated.

You continued to let the candles wax drip onto Jason, and started rubbing him faster, you softly blew on the candle wix and set it down on the bedside table. You continued to stroke him and used the hand that used to hold the candle to tease Jason's nipples, this tipped him over the edge, making Jason blow his load all over your hand and his chest.

You went to grab a tissue to clean your hand and ran your hand through his hair once again, 'Baby, are you okay ? Do you want me to clean you up ?', Jason was clearly spent, and he just nodded while closing his eyes.

You took another tissue to clean his cum off him first, then you strategically decided to first scratch, gently, the wax off his chest, once that was done you took the damp rag, and run it on his chest, Jason shrugged from the feeling.

'Baby, sit up' you told him, he groaned softly but did as you told, you handed him the glass of water that was sitting on his bedside table. 'Drink up, you need to hydrate your inside ~', you said teasingly. Jason did not brother to answer and simply took the glass and took a long sip of water before giving it back to you.

You grabbed the burn cream, 'I'm gonna put some cream on you 'kay ? Couldn't want your chest to be all burned, could we ?', you ruffled his hair once again, enjoying how calm and just submissive he was. You opened the cream and took a small dab of cream and spread it on his chest, first near his nipples, causing Jason to shivers, then spread the rest of his chest, where the rest of the wax was.

'It's done, you should let the cream sit and absorb, so why not take a nap, while I clean up ?' You asked him, giving him a small kiss on his check. Jason once again simply nodded and just let his body fell on the bed, where the towel still was, 'Well, won't get that back for now I guess' you thought. Before getting up from the bed and going to clean and put everything where it belongs.

A bit late, but I feel tumblr will appreciate my Minoan octopus pottery-inspired egg anyway

it was painted with molten beewax and dyed red, the wax removed at the end of the process - my favourite egg-painting technique!

*She's kinda bored, so she makes little trays of magic puts the cement in one and beewax in the other*

*She waves her arms towards each other mixing the ingredients together in a dance on silver light*

*She then tornado's the mixture carefully in a wooden bowl she made amidst the magic light show* Done - Glass

*watches in wonder at the mixing, before yawning big* 'y know what to do from here, Sugar Crystal? Pretend its lotion and rub it into the cracks *lays head down on arms, the lower half of their body off the bed*
