#Genshin Impact is hypocritical at times

[bakibakideemon]

It’s a shame we as travelers can’t like Cyno’s jokes. But have an option to choose making similarly stupid jokes across all the time. Like why do genshin developers hate him?

Honestly people who make Cyno’s jokes bad (with people giving absolutely no reaction/ exasperation as a reaction to it)… why? Have you ever interacted in real life? 😭😭 these are best type of people…

I know I've talked a lot about Alhaitham actually being one of the funniest characters in Genshin Impact, but every time I think about him, I find something new to laugh at.

Alhaitham's character stories and personal criticisms of Kaveh largely hinge on one specific point: That Kaveh's genius intellect and artistic abilities are incongruous with his idealism. Kaveh possesses more talent than a selfless person should reasonably have, leaving him vulnerable to constantly being taken advantage of.

However, Alhaitham states these complaints about Kaveh's personality while having the exact same problem himself.

Alhaitham is literally the definition of "personality and talents do not match." Sir, you are the pot calling the kettle black.

It's a given: Alhaitham is exceedingly competent. He is intelligent, rational, and capable of being impartial when needed. Despite being a slacker as the Akademiya's scribe, during his stint as the Acting Grand Sage, the game goes out of its way to note--in several places--that Alhaitham was actually going above and beyond what was expected of him, taking the position very seriously, uncovering and fixing major issues in the Akademiya, and demonstrating a deep care for the sanctity and future of the Akademiya as a whole when Sumeru's people's will to research and learn declined after the collapse of the Akasha.

By all accounts, Alhaitham is (was) a fantastic Grand Sage. Compared to Azar, who is shown as inherently self-aggrandizing and unconcerned with Sumeru's well-being, Alhaitham genuinely did his best during his brief time as Sumeru's leader, protecting students' research, concerning himself with how to address the people's problems, and even diving in to solve mysteries that normally would have been left for the matra. As Acting Grand Sage, we're told his behavior and judgments were fair, and he addressed problems immediately and with his full effort.

In short, there is literally no one else more qualified to be Grand Sage than Alhaitham.

And yet, despite possessing every talent needed to be the leader of a nation, Alhaitham doesn't have the personality for it. He has every single trait a good leader requires... And yet he refuses to be a leader. His own talent vastly exceeds the slow-paced life his personality leads him to seek, making his particular abilities more incongruous with his values than Kaveh's--by a mile. People keep trying to promote him into positions of leadership because his talents are so obvious, and yet he does everything in his power to deny his own abilities and instead fly under the radar--and under the level of his full potential too.

Awful hypocritical for you to claim Kaveh's talents don't match his personality when yours match even less, Alhaitham...

Chiori, Navia, Furina and Bronya with an s/o who wears a full on tuxedo outside regardless of blazing hot weather or frigid cold, when asked the reason they simply reply “I look really cool while doing stuff” in it

(Genshin Impact/H:SR) Chiori, Navia, Furina, Clorinde, and Bronya's S/O always wearing a tuxedo

On some level, Chiori respects that S/O refuses to not be stylish.

But she could see the sweat dripping onto the white part of their tux, disgusting her.

(Chiori) "You realize that you're ruining your tux just by sweating, right?"

(S/O) "Oh come on, it's nothing that a washer can't take care of."

Her eyes shot up and down before her expression repulsed at whatever ran through her mind.

(Chiori) "Ew, no. It's so bad that I can see the shirt changing color. Go and change already."

(S/O) "But you never get out of that dress-"

(Chiori) "Because I can still breathe in it. You on the other hand are roasting alive in that. If you really must wear that thing everywhere, I can tailor it to where you won't be adding to Fontaine's water level."

Fashion was important to Chiori, and so was making sure your clothes weren't soaking wet on a dry day.

Navia absolutely understands S/O's struggle.

Looking fashionable on a hot summer day was hell on earth, the things she had to do to ensure there would be no sweat!

(Navia) "S/O, we need to make you an umbrella that complements your suit!"

(S/O) "You'd do that for me?"

Navia scoffs and smiles, hands going onto her waist.

(Navia) "Of course I would! We gotta make sure your fashion statement goes unimpeded, come on, I know what we're doing today!"

Navia and S/O walk side by side, with umbrellas in hand to protect them from the sun.

Sadly, S/O's doesn't turn into a shotgun, but Navia could have it special ordered for them if they wanted!

Furina never really feels that much of the heat, due to her usually staying indoors all the time.

But that being said, she appreciates that S/O always strived to look as good as her, no matter the weather or situation!

All that being said, she never really saw them wear anything else.

Either they had spares, or...

(Furina) "...S/O, I must ask, when was the last time you washed your suit?"

(S/O) "When was the last time you washed yours?"

Furina actually had an excuse! She could use her Vision to wash it out and let it air dry, then she could use lots of perfume and shower...That was good enough, right?

(Furina) "D-Do not dodge my question by asking me one! Don't tell me you just wear the same thing day in, day out!"

(S/O) "That's not fair, I never see you get out of that suit either!"

The two get into a mini argument about wearing the exact same thing every day, while proceeding to actually not change their outfits at all.

It ends with Furina snapping her fingers and changing into a slightly different variation of her usual, letting her get the upperhand.

Clorinde thinks S/O just looks way more gaudy than they actually are, always wearing a tux.

Granted, they were in Fontaine and gaudiness was what they were essentially known for besides their technology.

But she always felt like it attracted the wrong crowd, but its not like she had much room to talk.

(Clorinde) "...S/O."

(S/O) "Hm? What's up, Clorinde?"

(Clorinde) "I am aware it might be hypocritical to bring this up but...Must you wear that suit to this?"

(S/O) "Come on, Clorinde! It's not like this is any different to what I wear everyday."

(Clorinde) "While that is true, the fact you are in that first thing in the morning is concerning."

They were just brushing their teeth, and Clorinde had not even gotten into uniform yet, simply donning a nightgown with her hair neatly tucked behind her.

Wouldn't the water just get all over the suit anyway?

Bronya appreciated that S/O was always looking presentable, given that she was the Supreme Guardian of Belebog, and her S/O should not be caught lacking in the style department.

However, she swears that S/O has never worn anything else in their life.

Even before the Astral Express crew came along, before they had become a couple, S/O was in that suit.

Even more impressive considering that they were in the Eternal Freeze for their entire lives, but still chose to go out in that.

Seele had tried to drag her and S/O out multiple times to at least get something new to wear, which she admittedly didn't do a good job of wearing either.

But S/O's dedication to their one outfit bordered on psychotic.

(Bronya) "S/O, may I ask you something?"

(S/O) "Sure, what is it?"

(Bronya) "Do you have spares of that suit?"

(S/O) "One for every day of the week."

She just blinked at that revelation and sighed loudly.

(Bronya) "...We should change our wardrobe."

[toyhou-se-drama]

the poster child for performative dnis on toyhouse is people with genshin impact themed profiles. “dni fans of immoral media, dni ppl who promote racism” my brother in christ you are a fan of one of the most blatantly colorist mainstream media with more cultural appropriation and whitewashing incidents than can be counted on fingers. no amount of apologia will save them, every time it comes up they just give the same dry “it’s a fantasy game” response. I’m sure you also love ranting about how closed species promotes gambling or whatever while also literally supporting the biggest gacha game on the market. You can like genshin impact but don’t be a fucking hypocrite and pick and choose which fandoms are the immoral ones nobody is allowed to like while proudly supporting this one.

Careful, they might not like this one.

Rooftop Conversations- F!Reader x Cyno

Featured Column - Genshin Impact

In a quiet village on the edge of the desert, Reader and Cyno find solace in sleepless nights spent together on a rooftop.

The first time [Name] saw Cyno lingering on the rooftop, she almost ignored him.

It wasn’t uncommon for travelers to take refuge in places like this, where the desert nights stretched long and restless. The rooftops provided a quiet reprieve from the heat still trapped in the sandstone walls below, a vantage point where the wind carried whispers of the dunes rather than the murmur of villagers winding down for the night.

But Cyno wasn’t just any traveler, and he wasn’t the type to waste time. If he was here, arms crossed, gaze fixed on the dark horizon, then something was keeping him awake.

[Name] considered slipping back down the ladder, pretending she hadn’t noticed, but his head tilted ever so slightly in her direction—a subtle acknowledgment, but one that let her know he had already sensed her presence.

"Couldn’t sleep?" she asked, padding over and perching on the edge of the stone railing.

Cyno didn’t answer right away. His crimson gaze flicked toward her, sharp even in the dim moonlight, before returning to the landscape stretching endlessly beyond the village walls.

"Something like that," he admitted.

[Name] hummed, tipping her head back to look at the stars. They burned bright against the night sky, undisturbed by the glow of city lights. She wondered how long he had been up here, alone with his thoughts.

"You know," she said, stretching her legs out in front of her, "this is my spot."

"Your spot?"

"For thinking. Avoiding people. Late-night existential crises." She smirked. "And now, apparently, for running into Mahamatra in the middle of the night."

His expression didn’t change, but something about his posture shifted, a slight loosening of his shoulders. "Am I intruding?"

She waved a hand. "Not at all. I’d be a hypocrite if I said yes. Besides, I was about to make some tea. You want any?"

Cyno hesitated, then gave a single nod.

That was how it started.

[Name] never pried into why he was up there that night, nor did he. But after that first encounter, it became something unspoken between them—on the nights they both found sleep elusive, they would meet here, sometimes talking, sometimes simply existing in the same quiet space.

She learned, through these late-night meetings, that Cyno was sharper than most gave him credit for, his mind quick and analytical even when he wasn’t on duty. She also learned that he was, somehow, even worse at telling jokes when he was tired.

"What did the scholar say when he found the forbidden text?"

[Name] sighed, already regretting giving him the space to speak. "Cyno, no."

He ignored her. "He said, ‘Looks like this research is… off the books.’"

A moment of silence. The wind whistled softly between the stone buildings.

[Name] groaned, rubbing her face. "I should’ve pushed you off this rooftop."

"But you didn’t."

"I regret it."

"Do you?"

She dropped her hands and glanced at him. He was watching her with a rare smirk, something subtle but undeniably smug.

[Name] exhaled, shaking her head. "I hate you so much right now."

"Noted."

Some nights, they didn’t speak at all. Cyno would meditate, sitting cross-legged with his hands resting on his knees, while [Name] worked on something with her hands—polishing gemstones, testing the purity of minerals she had gathered, or, on nights when she was too tired to focus, just watching the stars shift overhead.

Eventually, the silence between them became a comfort.

It was strange, how easily she had fallen into this routine with him.

[Name] had spent most of her life on the move, never staying in one place too long, never forming attachments she couldn’t walk away from. She worked as a traveling jeweler, gathering rare ores and stones from different regions, cutting and refining them for clients who sought something beyond the ordinary. The craft required patience, precision, and an ever-changing landscape—no two stones were the same, and neither were the places she found them.

It was a life she had chosen, a life she loved.

But it was also a lonely one at times.

Cyno never asked about her past, but he understood something fundamental about her—the way she couldn’t sit still for too long, the way her mind was always reaching for the next challenge. He didn’t try to make her stay, didn’t try to convince her that she should belong to something bigger.

He simply existed beside her.

One night, as the first light of dawn began to creep over the horizon, Cyno broke the silence.

"You’re leaving soon, aren’t you?"

[Name]'s fingers stilled against the ceramic cup in her hands. She glanced at him. He wasn’t looking at her, his gaze fixed on the desert beyond the village’s edge.

She sighed. "You always were too perceptive for your own good."

A small, knowing hum.

"Yeah," she admitted. "Got a commission in Fontaine. Good pay, rare gemstones. A supplier there has something I need to verify before I can finish an order."

Cyno nodded once. "How long?"

She hesitated. "A few months. Maybe more."

A breeze rolled across the rooftop, carrying the scent of sand and distant spices.

"You don’t have to explain," he said finally. "I understand."

[Name] studied him, the steady set of his shoulders, the way his fingers curled slightly against his knee.

It was in moments like this, when he let the weight of his role slip just enough to let her see the man beneath it, that she felt something dangerous stir in her chest.

"Cyno—"

"I’ll be here when you return," he interrupted, his voice steady. "If you do."

She exhaled, something tightening in her throat. "You make it sound like I might not."

"People like us rarely stay in one place for long." He finally turned to meet her gaze. "But if you do… I’ll be here."

[Name] searched his face, looking for something she wasn’t sure she would find.

She found it anyway.

In the way he watched her, in the way his usually guarded expression softened just enough, in the way he had never once asked her to change—she found it.

She swallowed, pushing back the urge to say something reckless, something that might make this harder.

Instead, she smirked, knocking her shoulder lightly against his.

"Don’t get too lonely without me, General."

His lips quirked, the ghost of a smirk. "I'll try."

The village had changed. Not much, but enough.

New carvings lined the edges of the market stalls, fresh tapestries hung in the shade of the central courtyard, and a few unfamiliar faces wove through the narrow streets, their voices blending into the familiar murmur of life here. The scent of roasted spices and desert blooms was the same, but [Name] had been gone long enough for everything to feel just a little different.

Still, her feet carried her without hesitation—to the ladder that led to the familiar path across the rooftops, to their spot.

She let out a slow breath as she settled onto the edge of the stone railing, fingers tapping idly against her knee. The stars stretched endlessly above her, bright as ever against the ink-black sky. The desert wind curled around her, warm and dry, carrying with it the distant hush of sand shifting in the dunes beyond the village walls.

But the space beside her remained empty.

[Name] had expected that, of course. A year was a long time, and Cyno was not a man with idle responsibilities. Maybe he had stopped coming here. Maybe he had moved on, found new places to pass the long nights.

Still, a part of her had hoped.

She sighed, leaning back on her hands, letting the quiet settle around her. An hour passed, maybe more. She lost track, counting constellations and tracing patterns in the sky.

Then—

Footsteps.

She felt them before she heard them, the subtle vibration against the stone as someone landed lightly onto the rooftop. Familiar, measured steps, deliberate and steady.

[Name] didn’t turn immediately. Instead, she smirked to herself, waiting until the presence was close enough for his shadow to stretch beside hers.

"You’re late," she said, tilting her head just enough to meet crimson eyes.

Cyno exhaled, the faintest shake of his head. "I heard a traveler had arrived today. One that matched your description."

She grinned, stretching her arms over her head. "And you thought, ‘Surely it couldn’t be the reckless woman who abandoned me for Fontaine?’"

His gaze lingered on her for a long moment, unreadable. Then, with a slow, deliberate movement, he sat beside her.

"I thought," he corrected, "that if it was you… I should be here."

[Name] felt something warm unfurl in her chest, something steady, something grounding. She nudged his shoulder with hers.

"I told you I’d come back."

"You did."

The silence between them wasn’t empty. It was the kind of quiet that had always existed in their space, a presence in and of itself.

She glanced at him, taking in the way he still sat with his arms crossed, his gaze distant but thoughtful, his presence unchanged in all the ways that mattered.

And just like that, the weight of the past year—the travels, the endless distances, the quiet ache of missing this—melted away.

"Well," she said, stretching her legs out in front of her. "What did I miss?"

Cyno smirked, just barely. "Not much, only… the many jokes saved for your return."

[Name] groaned, tipping her head back. "I take it back. I should’ve stayed in Fontaine."

"Too late," he said smoothly. "You’re here now."

She laughed, the sound carrying across the rooftops. "Yeah," she murmured, nudging his knee lightly with hers. "I guess I am."

Editor's Note: Cyno has always been a weird struggle for me to write for, I think I would over think his lore and try and incorporate it too much. I tried taking a simpler approach that led to this little fluff piece. Hope you enjoyed!

Loving Genshin Impact is hard.

I know people are going to find this hypocritical and stupid but I don't care about that right now.

I have loved playing Genshin for over 3 years now, and was able to maintain a healthy balance between playing it and not the whole time. I didn't force myself to play everyday, and many times I don't even do my dailies. I do them because I actually like farming and exploring.

But dear god, this fucking McDonalds collaboration is infuriating. McDo has been part of the BDS Boycott for a long time now, and there is no way they do not know about this with how they evidently do keep up with modern issues and trends.

Ridiculous to put gaming and politics together? Nah dude. Be aware of what you support and what you don't.

Ok now here's the part people are definitely gonna fuss over, I'm still gonna play the game. I have been f2p the entire time, and I highly doubt that they earn money from having to run more servers and accounts for people who don't pay at all. The most money they ever got from me is me buying a single official plushie last year.

But now though? I think I'm only gonna play this game only for important quests. That's it. The latest archon quest was honestly a disappointment, the blatant racism and whitewashing of characters is horrendous, and now this McDo collab. My account is stacked as fuck with strong characters and stuff already, so really don't need to build many of them anymore.

I love so much of this game, I really do. The music, characters, world, art, story, so so much of it. But jesus fucking christ this is a lot of shit to put up with. Why does this have to be so hard to love? Probably because they have heads of staff that are blatantly racist with sticks up their asses. Fuck you guys.

In my heart I know they can do better, but this is just. Horrible. Nothing I do, or us in the Genshin Tumblr community, can really stop them. All we can do is move forward.

[justaneedle]

Okay, I guess I just need to say this out in the open just in case, so that people are less likely to... be disappointed in me (?):

— I'm pretty rude. I don't strive to be like that, but I can. It could also be due to just a bad mood (really sensitive person).

— I simply block people whose radical opinions disgust me, even if in principle I see their point of view. Therefore—

— I’ll say right away that I don’t have any problems with NSFW of characters. INCLUDING minors or age difference. Cause it's just a characters. Y'know some image and nothing more.

— Therefore, I’ll add, pjo fandom: my brain ship lukercy from time to time; very, very rarely can take a swing at lukabeth, and generally keeps me hooked on such a thing as luke x bianca (don’t ask, I don’t remember how it came to mind).

— But I see absolutely no place for any of this in the canon, yes, it happens

except for the obvious Percy's and Annabeth's crush on Luke, cause y'know, been there, done that (silly childish crush on my cousin back then, yeah)

— I liked and will like Harry Potter, talk about it and all of that as much as I never gave the fuck about JKR. If you're the kind of person who thinks that you're better than someone by insulting and attacking them cause they're cannot “just forget”, “go on” out of “cringe babyish and stupid” stuff — fuck off from this blog.

— My headcanons: Percy Jackson is biromantic/bisexual (as if he biromantic my Percy is heterosexual; if the other way, so he's biromantic bisexual); Luke Castellan is biromantic/panromatic bisexual with a (sexual) preference for girls.

— We here love Ethan Nakamura more than we love Percy. We love Titan Army more than we love Percy. Sorry, baby-boy.

— Genshin Impact part:

I absolutely DON'T GIVE A FUCK about how pale Hoyo makes their characters, because it's kind of hypocritical: did you even see what they were inspired by? The good old sterotypes!

And this is not exactly a hit-and-run, it don't offend personally me in any way, they are funny... perhaps some of them are TOO hackneyed and annoying, but nothing more

❛ ACE OF HEARTS ❜ ; chapter one: the tower.

‘cheers !’

you never expected yourself to be lost in a crowd of hypocrite people, trying hard to fit in and especially not on your birthday night.

but here you were, a smile planted on your face, wearing the perfect dress; one chosen by your closest friend.

you weren’t used to drink alcohol as it repulsed you, yet you kept a glass in hand all night despite the scent disgusting you.

‘you must imitate those around you to win their trust’ someone said to you once. but he wasn’t here today with you and he definitely couldn’t understand what a hard time you were having surrounded by drunkards you had nothing in common with.

some of them were even trying to pull you as if they stood a chance.

comfort wasn’t part of your job and you knew that. you couldn’t allow yourself to feel bad, couldn’t allow yourself to complain nor cry. you had no tears left to cry anyway.

your job was definitely not easy to deal with.

but you chose it; or rather, life chose it for you because if it weren’t for these people you had to eliminate, you would still be left under the rain with no job, no house nor car and not even an umbrella to protect your freezing body from the drops of rain.

indeed you’ve had a pretty hard life until now. some people helped you. some more than others but you learnt with time that you couldn’t allow yourself to feel things such as loneliness or nostalgia anymore.

you wouldn’t ask for help. and you didn’t need it anyway. someone did help you in the past, but you were so naive when you thought it would be a genuine act of kindness. he suggested this job to you and as dangerous as it was, you still accepted the offer because you had no other option to refund him all the things he bought you.

morax. such was the name of your boss, the name of the person who gave you a ‘chance’ to start again. he was a dangerous, manipulative man, slightly evil and had lots of enemies in town but you still trusted this man with your life. he would not let you down, would only prolong your contract at worst.

you started to think back of it. of him, until your thoughts got interrupted.

‘crimson, can you hear me ?’ you heard the familiar voice of a ‘friend’.

you brought your fingers to the receiver implanted in your right ear, slightly raising the sound. the communication was particularly difficult for today’s mission, as the receiver did not allow you to reply, only to listen.

‘take a sip from your glass if you hear me crimson.’

being fully ignorant as to where your partner was standing felt weird. he knew where you were, even had his eyes on you but you ? you could only stare in every direction hoping to catch a glimpse of his blue hair.

it did not happen and by the time you had done what he asked before, drinking the awful juice in your crystal glass.

‘good. the target is arriving in a few minutes, i am going to join the party soon enough. if you see me do not react. not even a slight eyebrow raise or a sigh will escape his observant eyes. he knows what i look like but he has no information about you. and i want it to stay that way.’

his voice sounded pretty concerned about you, you thought before turning off the device and focusing back on the people around you.

ayato always made it clear how he appreciated your person and by the time you worked together you two created a strong bond. not enough for you to relay on him nor fully trust him but when two people like each other enough to spend nights in the same bed, bodies clinging together, you can call it a pretty strong relationship.

you almost smiled at the idea but the instructions he gave you before were pretty clear, therefore you stopped yourself and stopped trying to find him among the crowd.

‘splendid ! absolutely breathtaking !’

a male voice echoed in the grand hall y’all were partying in. the maids closed the front doors right after he entered.

he was wearing a long black coat that seemed to be way too warm for the temperature around, or perhaps you were just unbothered by the cold nowadays. his black hair were long and perfectly styled as if he just got out from the hairdresser. many rings on his fingers but curiously not on the ring finger.

everyone inside turned around to look at him and as he was walking only the music could be heard, accompanying his steps, making his entrance much more impressive. you couldn’t really see whether his eyes were opened on closed, making him a really hard person to read, even for you.

‘good evening my dear guests.’ as he walked around, to shake some hands; that smile didn’t leave his face a single time, starting to make you quite uncomfy.

that man had a strong aura. he was menacing even when his face wore the most normal expression ever. you couldn’t take your eyes off him, asking yourself whether this was true charisma or if it was just him.

‘i do not remember you.’

you prayed hard for his gaze not to be turned to you, but when your eyes got back on his face he was indeed addressing his words to you. you tried to play dumb, looking around yourself as if you did not understand who he was talking to.

‘you, dear. i’m talking to you.’

with that he approached, taking your hand and dropping a kiss on it. ‘what’s your name ?’

you didn’t flinch when you spoke up from a clear and authoritative voice. your eyes meeting with his in a very tensed exchange.

‘you can call me m.’

‘m ? as in mysterious ?’

‘or as in murder.’ you replied, a hint of playfulness in your voice, matching the smirk growing on your glossy lips.

it seemed that it amused him as he genuinely giggled to your response. ‘you’re quite unique, m.’

he finally let go of your hand, and you brought it back with yours; now holding on the glass with your two hands as if you were threatened to disappear at any given moment and that glass was the only think keeping you close to the ground.

‘do you know who i am ?’ he asked. he seemed genuinely curious as to hearing your answer.

you stared at the huge plasma screen on the wall behind him. a large photo of himself was displayed on it along with these words.

❝ Pantalone. 91th ceo of fatui corp and president of the association morlone against starvation in the world invites you tonight to an auction in order to invest for the sake of the kids dreaming of a better life. ❞

‘it seems you are the very important person tonight. sir.’ you said, bowing your head in front of him as a gage of respect despite your profound desire to kill that man.

you’d probably have a pretty hard time getting to him as he was overprotected. judging by ayato’s words, he was not someone to underestimate, which is why you thought it’d be clever to show him respect already.

good for you, you were only sent in a detection mission, looking for compromising information about him to give morax. you knew the day would come, where you would have to take action against pantalone, but lucky you were, it wouldn’t happen tonight.

that brief exchange between you and one of the infamous enemies of your boss and saver was nothing like you thought it would. it was friendlier than you expected.

‘well, shall we ?’ he handed out his hand to you, ready to guide you next door, into the large room that had been refitted to accommodate the auction.

‘next piece up is a 1 200 000$ apartment in inazuma city. the sight is absolutely breathtaking as it is on the 67th floor.’

the time started to get quite long and passed by too slowly for you. pantalone’s things that were for sale got everyone interested and the auction seemed to be never ending.

you stared around, and finally found him. ayato was sitting a few seats behind you on your left. you had not seen him entering and you asked yourself whether the owner of the place did but luckily for you, since he was busy on his business; it seemed he had not.

you focused back on the event occurring in front of you and heaved a long sigh when he announced another of his car for sale. there had already been two of them before and since the only thing you were interested in was a special necklace morax told you to buy, you found the time pretty long.

you looked everywhere around, stared at the faces of his guests. perhaps it’d be useful later you thought. better to know the faces of important people whenever you get a chance to. there was two empty seats, and you asked yourself who would miss such event.

just as you started feeling something was off, the door opened and someone ran inside. you frowned at the sight of a woman who seemed to struggle to breathe, as if she ran from something and didn’t stop running for quite a long time.

everyone turned around only to find one of the maids, covered in blood, hands red and shaky. the woman seemed terrified and confused. everyone seemed unable to move and you looked among the crowd, trying to find ayato.

‘t-there is.. a dead b-body on the small garden ! someone.. someone is dead ! please, help !’ her weak voice screamed.

you were not panicked but still had to act a bit scared for your life to fit in. the first one to move towards the maid was pantalone himself. he covered the shaking body of his maid with his coat and rubbed her back gently.

he almost seemed sweet and caring but you knew better not to trust appearances and you heard too many things to believe he cared about anyone, ever.

‘it’ll be okay mary. we’re all gonna be okay.’ he kept on telling her and she repeated after him several times as if trying to convince herself that this was true.

after a few minutes where everyone in shock, were talking and in denial saying things such as ‘it cannot be true..’ , pantalone finally got up from the floor where he kneeled to comfort his employee. he repeated the same exact words he told Mary to everyone in the room and exchanged a brief look with the other maid that seemed much more calm about the whole situation. perhaps she had not seen the body, and only followed the voice of the other when she started calling out for help.

and why were she screaming for help you thought. if the body was dead already, then no help could be given, only grief and last respects.

the other employee ran in the opposite direction, meanwhile pantalone went outside, probably to verify the so called ‘mary’’s sayings.

most people stayed inside, paralyzed but there was some courageous or curious minds that followed quickly to check. and of course, you were one of them.

you kept on getting closer and closer even though some others remained standing by the door, the only slight vision of a body laying down enough for them.

but you, you needed more information. you’ve seen lots of corpses before and surely, there wasn’t anything particular about this one.

curiosity can be a bad thing, that you often heard it; and you never understood the meaning more than now.

the body was laying on his back, legs slightly spread and the arms resting alongside his body. his chin was bloody, it seemed that it had dried some time ago. his eyes were wide opened, lost into nowhere, staring in the direction of the stars. his long, blonde hair were messy and some strands of hair moving over his face from the slight wind.

it could’ve been a corpse like those you’ve seen before; like these people you’ve killed and abandoned in the same exact position.

however this one was different.

indeed, it was the very first time you were seeing the dead body of someone you knew before. and the worst part was you couldn’t react to it, in fear of revealing your identity.

‘aether…’ you whispered to yourself, low enough for anyone else to hear.

you walked back to the huge mansion where everyone was freaking out. your steps were slow, you were quiet, perhaps a little bit too much but you felt weird. it was quite hard for you to take the news.

aether. lumine’s brother.

you thought back of the two seats that remained free the whole auction. was she the one missing along with aether ? and where were she anyway.

you had not seen them for a while now and the questions were truly invading your mind one after the other. but you had no time nor energy to think about it.

you lingered around the house, your arms pending without you doing nothing of them and your feet struggling to walk as if it was fully bruised.

aether died.

aether is dead.

it seemed like your brain couldn’t stop thinking these two things.

you subconsciously started to look for the only comforting place you thought of: ayato’s arms and since he had been there tonight, it was the first thing you had in mind.

however, finding him seemed to be hard. he probably left as fast and discreet as he arrived by now but you were still in denial and in shock of what you’ve seen.

‘oh, you’re still here m ?’ hearing his voice sent shivers down your spine; not in a positive way. you completely forgot you were in that dangerous businessman house right now.

ayato seized the first opportunity he seen to flee but you, you stayed here. so unprofessional of you. you mentally scolded yourself.

‘i-’

‘did you know that person ?’ pantalone asked right away.

there was no little game anymore. there was no public. only him. only you. both together, talking freely, dropping the mask. pantalone gave up his arrogant smile and you finally dared looking back at him with the disgust you felt for him and not that fake admiration and respect.

‘did you kill him ?’ you asked.

to that question he giggled, walking towards you in an attempt to get closer to you to test your reactions but you didn’t flinch, didn’t look away nor did you step back.

‘did you ?’ you insisted.

‘alala, you not trusting me is making me really sad m. or should i call you.. crimson ?’

the smile he wore when pronouncing your pseudonym made it clear how his intentions were absolutely not good.

‘crimson ?’ you played your last card. ‘i thought it was you.’

the whole atmosphere around you was tensed. at this point, even breathing got complicated and it almost felt like his aura was swallowing you entirely.

your body felt heavy, and your mind dizzy but you remained focused on his face, keeping his smile as a point to cling to, to remain fully in reality.

‘don’t play me. m as in morax. he sent you here, didn’t he ?’

you found yourself struggling to find your words. you were never in such a state of confusion before but to see an old friend’s corpse with your own eyes really did shake you.

‘or perhaps it was me.’ a third person suddenly appeared behind pantalone.

‘what do you think, president ?’ he added, with an arrogant voice matching his smile. he was nothing you’ve seen before. and he just saved you from an awfully tensed exchange that could’ve costed your life as you were to take advantage on that man.

the third person seemed young. he was tall, taller than pantalone, but also thinner. yet he kept the advantage. his surprising intervention was probably something pantalone never thought of.

his orange hair were brought back with gel. he was pretty elegant, a golden necklace visible. two buttons from his shirt were opened and half his face was covered with a mask making it impossible for you to see his eyes.

a few rings on the fingers of his right hand that was currently holding a small gun against pantalone’s head. ‘run.’ he gently told you and you did as he said without waiting as much as you had plenty of questions to ask.

you learned tonight that curiosity brought nothing good and since you liked to believe in fate as much as you despised it;

you were quite certain you’d see him again.

a/n : i didn’t mean to make pantalone THIS attractive jeez,, anyway 2 out of 5 for now ehe

Hi! Can I get a genshin impact matchup please?

She/her

Gemini

Intp

5w4

Asexual/heteromantic

Chaotic Good

Appearance: 164cm. Brown wavy hair, dark Brown eyes. Curvy body I guess? I'm pale with visible beauty marks like on my lips. I wear glasses/sunglasses. I've been described as cute and a tease because I always bite my lips out of habit lol. I often have a tired/annoyed expression or a smile. I wear comfy clothes and even pj outside. Or cliché villain clothes, no in between. I try to wear gloves to stop myself from bitting my nails.

I appear as cold and very sarcastic. But I can be charismatic when I want. I'm always polite unless I dislike you (you'll know it because I become passive agressive). How I act depends on how you act with me, unless I'm in a bad mood. In that case I isolate to not break hearts too much. I act flirty around my friends and is known for sometimes playing with hearts (I'm oblivious to it). I'm petty and can go very far out of spite or vengeance. I curse a lot and will call you out on your bullshit with no issue no matter who you are.

I'm moody and not a morning person AT ALL. I'm brutally honest and it affected some friendships because people sometimes won't dare to approach me. I'm also socially obvious to a lot of things. I'm very curious and have a short attention spawn.

Getting along with me is easy peasy. As long as you're not whiny or a hypocrite we will get along. Now getting to know me is....nearly impossible. No friend of mine has managed to make me spill my problems even thought they share theirs and I help them out. My trust issues and daddy issues are too important for that lol. I don't open up and bottle my feelings all the time till I shut down or explode. I isolate a lot when I have problems or I'm just thinking (I love daydreaming). I'm rebellious but also a smooth talker. My friends know I have good intentions and would never wrong an innocent person. I'm the smart but reckless friend cuz I'll always hype up bad ideas for fun. I can be a bit naive. Even thought I have morbid curiosity and shared dubious experimental ideas....morals ain't my Forte. I'm more logical than emotional. I'm ambitious and can't stand my own failure. But I'm also lazy and a procrastinator which is a terrible combo. I'm always willing to debate and learn new things because knowledge is very important to me. I'm creative and innovative, I know when to get to business. I'm very competitive and try to hide it. Yeah I have an ego, so what? if you don't have a solid argument with me, I'll destroy you.

Despite that, I joke a lot and never take anything seriously. It happens that I underestimate people (I beat them later sooo). I'm a big tease and love to rile up people and see them get angry. I subtly insult people when they piss me off.

Because of that, I get very lonely and I'm misunderstood. I don't recognize my own feelings and mask that pretty well as it fools everyone. i don't consider myself to be a good person for some reasons. I envy easily and get annoyed easily because I want to succeed above all lol. Oh and I love money.

I mostly kin Malleus, Floyd, Furina, Diavolo from OM, Douma and perhaps some ratio or dottore.

Hobbies: Reading (mystery, thriller, fantasy), true crime, video games, manga, drawing, baking, fighting sports (sparing and shooting), learning, daydreaming. I love space and mad scientists stories. My aesthetic is definitely related to those subjects as well as the sea and stars.

I'm insecure about my weight despite not being overweight.

In a relationship, I'm the most chill person. I don't get jealous or clingy. You can do whatever you want. I'm always here to give you advices because helping you out, giving you my time and giving you gifts is my love langage. It bothered my last boyfriend because he thought I wasn't emotionally present and isolated a lot (which I did. I warned him that I accepted out of boredroom and didn't love him but he still went ahead. Then he emotionally cheated on my bd and everyone noticed but me lol. I separated from those friends cuz none told me and I value honesty a lot). I love cuddles but I'll take time to accept physical touch. I enjoy a partner that can keep up with me and be patient and honest because I value honesty. I also love receiving gifts because uh...I grew up with them validating love. I hate whiny and cowardly people. I'm not the one who falls first and don't make the first move

I speak Arabic, French and English. I'm an only child. I study electronics and want to work in space related studies.

Thank you!

Hi! And of course! Thank you so much for requesting

I see you with….

Venti!

For one you two would personally get a long with one another easily! He’ll definitely wait for you to warm up and open up to him

He would understand your trust issues and would do anything to earn your trust

Another thing is that you two would definitely make bad decisions but he’ll definitely take the blame for you because he wouldn’t want you to get into major trouble

He’ll definitely gift you wine (that he stole) and sing you songs he wrote to help you calm down from anything

He would honestly be honest with you and would enjoy having fun with you on your adventures

He would also let you daydream and let you tell him about you day dreams

[dreamcrush]

Hi Lazlo! Thank you for your request! Sorry it took a while. I hope you like your matchups!

In Genshin Impact, I match you with...

Kokomi enjoys spending what little free time she has relaxing with you.

I see her as a naturally creative person but with her duties as the Divine Priestess, she doesn't get the chance to explore that side of her a whole lot.

She enjoys joining you in art therapy. She’s especially fond of watercolours as she feels they match her style well. Her favourite things to paint are landscapes but she also likes painting plants and animals.

If you give her art you’ve been working on, she will use it to decorate her room. She’d love to hang it in her office so she can look at it while working but she thinks it would distract her too much.

She would also love it if you teach her how to crochet. She likes the relaxing nature of it, as well as the feeling of making progress with something.

Please visit her when she’s working late. She appreciates it so much, especially since she knows you’re a night owl naturally.

In My Hero Acadmeia, I match you with...

Midoriya can relate to you in a lot of ways. He’s a people pleaser and definitely gives off autistic vibes.

He enjoys watching YouTube with you. He watches a lot of hero and analysis videos but he’s pretty happy to watch most things, as long as you’re both enjoying it.

Midoriya absolutely plays Minecraft! He would love building things together. His favourite place in your Minecraft world is the base you built together. It’s got a nice feel to it.

He also plays other video games and has a preference for games like Stardew Valley and Animal Crossing. Whether you’re playing together or taking turns, he doesn’t mind, as long as you’re together.

He’s not a super creative person but he doesn't mind doing art with you. Mostly he just enjoys watching you work on your latest project. He likes seeing things come together.

In Attack on Titan, I match you with...

Sasha loves watching you do art. She’s not great at drawing or painting, so she’ll ask you to draw things for her.

She’s never pushy though so if she asks you to draw something and you don’t feel like it, please feel free to say no.

She also loves watching you crochet. She may not seem like someone who can sit still for long periods, but when you’re working on a project, she gets captivated.

No need to worry about there being mushrooms in your food anymore. Sasha’s really good at remembering what you do and don’t like and will always try to make sure your meals are enjoyable.

If mushrooms do sneak in there, she’s more than happy to eat them for you. Sasha eats anything and everything so any parts of your food you don’t like, she’ll have it.

Rant on Genshin Impact, Why I Think the Fandom is Obnoxiously Annoying!

Ok, this is something I have to get off my chest so feel free to ignore this rant, but one of my triggers acted up today when I was browsing the web and now, I have to blow some steam off by writing this thing.

So basically, every time I go to an anime store or site, I’ve been seeing more and more of Genshin Impact content and it’s driving me mad! What’s been bothering about the game is specifically its fanbase. Part of me fears that the game’s fanbase is giving it the same love that anime games like Touhou, FGO, and Kantai Collection are getting. It’s fucking insane! It basically means that soon there’s gonna be over a hundred poorly drawn/poorly written doujinshis and over a hundred dakimakura designs! I know it might sound crazy, but that’s how I feel about it.

I’m sorry, but I just think it’s fucking stupid that people can ignore other kinds of anime games and just focus on this one! In truth, I saw nothing special out of that game, I just saw it as just another JRPG and nothing else. There’s all kinds of those games out there and not all of them have the same love and treatment as this one, so why should this one be any special?

Here’s something that I will share. These are my two favorite anime game series’, Senran Kagura and Danganronpa. I took interest in those games for a number of reasons.

They’re anime games that for once are rated M as opposed to the majority of them being rated T which felt average.

They’re anime games that for once are not RPGs as opposed to the majority of them all being of this genre which again felt average. I will say that while Danganronpa has some RPG elements (USC uses turn-based battles) to me, the class trials are more like a puzzle game.

Fanservice.

There’s other anime games I like that, while not rated M, aren’t RPGs. But the downside is that no one is giving them any appreciation. About three years ago, I got into Kandagawa Jet Girls, a racing game from the creators of Senran Kagura. It’s a stand-alone title so it doesn’t really have a big fanbase, but I thought that it was a game that stood out from other anime games because of its genre. But what bothers me is that it feels like people have no reason to ignore that game and no reason to show huge love for Genshin Impact, it’s so unfair!

But it’s not just Kandagawa Jet Girls, but also Danganronpa’s spiritual successor, Zanki Zero. Again, it’s a stand-alone title, but it has the same kind of fanservice humor Danganronpa has, not to mention it’s rated M. Spike Chunsoft has other games such as AI: THE SOMNIUM FILES which has the same kind of mature rated fanservice humor. At least these games have an English dub whereas Genshin Impact sounded like it had no English dub (to my knowledge at least) but I’d be a hypocrite for saying that since there are anime games I enjoy that have no English dubs (e.g. Senran Kagura, Kandagawa Jet Girls). The fact that the game opened up with a lack of an English dub doesn’t really get me thinking that this is a good game to try out. UPDATE: So apparently, I've been told that the game does have an English dub, but from what I remember, when I first saw someone's bad attempt to play the game when it first came out, it felt like they were playing the game with the Japanese dub. No idea why, that's just how I remember it.

I mentioned that while I don’t like the RPG genre, I do like their spinoffs, namely the spinoffs for Neptunia and Fire Emblem. Despite Neptunia being a series of turn-based RPGs, I thought the setting’s concept of being a parody of the video game industry, and its fanservice moments were cool and I wanted to be part of its fandom, so I played their hack n’ slash spinoffs. I’d be a hypocrite for saying that since Genshin Impact is an action RPG, but last year I was playing Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes which I’ve come to enjoy (partly because I’m a fan of the Warrior games). Given that the theme for Fire Emblem and Genshin Impact is high fantasy, I wouldn’t see that as a reason for playing Genshin Impact. I also mentioned that because of Genshin Impact’s sudden fandom, there’s gonna be hundreds of dakimakuras. And that bothers me to an extent because my favorite anime games don’t have a lot of dakimakuras; Fire Emblem and Danganronpa specifically.

When I was browsing to find some Danganronpa dakimakuras, I thought it was unfortunate that there weren’t a lot that had all the girls, and most of them have Nagito. I was even disappointed to come across zero dakis of the NDRV3 girls, not even Miu. I will say that on one site I went to, I did manage to come across one design that had Maki, but that’s not enough. You would think that a game like Danganronpa with its moments of fanservice would be the kind of game dakimakura artists would want to take interest in, but nooooo, they had to pick Genshin Impact.

In the end, I don’t hate Genshin Impact, I just think the fandom is obnoxious and annoying, and I would appreciate it if every anime site I go to doesn’t shove it in my face! I just feel like it’s unfair that these sites would treat the game like it was Touhou or FGO, which both have hundreds of doujinshis and hundreds of daki designs. In FGO’s case, I’m worried that people are gonna use the FGO label to refer to the Fate series itself instead of saying it’s its own game. I wouldn’t want to go to a site that sells Fate dakis and have the seller use the FGO label even if the character didn’t debut in that game, but that’s another story.

I’m sorry, but I’ve got plenty of anime waifus. Heck, if I did take interest in Genshin Impact, I’d be neglecting my first waifu. I see no reason why I should have another waifu from a game that’s of a genre I’m not into despite its popularity. And while we’re on that subject, I get that its popularity has to do with its open-world gameplay, but I don’t really understand the hype everyone has with those games. Back in high school, I had a classmate who seemed obsessed with The Elder Scrolls 4, and when either me or my other classmate would talk about our favorite games, he would rant at us like a bully for not playing Oblivion. To me, it felt like there was a lot of peer pressure surrounding open-world RPGs (e.g. The Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Genshin Impact) and I just don’t want to have an obsession with those kinds of games. When I did try out Oblivion, while it was fun at first, it got a little boring or confusing and I had to put the game down. At the time, I was still new to understanding how open-world games were played, but even if I wanted to go back and give it another shot, it probably won’t make any difference in my life, and I have other reasons for not playing it. I will say however that I am a fan of Far Cry which, while it is an open-world FPS, is not an RPG and I’ve come to think of it as an alternative to playing Fallout or The Elder Scrolls.

Even if I were to compare Genshin Impact to other kinds of open-world action games like for example Dynasty Warriors 9, I wouldn’t see what the big deal is. I’ve already played DW9 and I’ve come to enjoy (most of) it. And somehow, if I didn’t know about its existence, maybe I could’ve had a neutral opinion about Genshin Impact. But because of how obnoxious its fanbase has become, my opinion is not neutral.

Again, I’m sorry, but I had to get this rant off my chest. I don’t want to browse an anime site and see Genshin Impact be shoved in my face and all of a sudden my triggers start acting up and my day is ruined, I am not up for that. It bothers me because it feels like its sudden fandom is making all other anime games look like shit. Even if there was a new anime game series that for once is not like this one, I doubt it exists.

BUNNY G!RL

☰ BUNNY HYBRID GF — GENSHIN IMPACT

ಇ feat: tighnari, dottore, pierro, scaramouche

— cw: bunny!fem!reader, biting, experimentation, sex toys, predator-prey kink, degradation, praise, pet nicknames (darling, angel, etc), use of clones, rough sex, ear & tail pulling, breeding kink, pussy eating, knotting mention, dry humping, somnophilia, scaramouche being a hypocrite, MDNI 18+

ᨳ TIGHNARI

it’s a miracle how tighnari hasn’t taken a bite out of you with the way he stares you down on the regular. the look that he gives you is nothing short of a predator watching it’s prey. tighnari can’t help it, though. even while you’re doing everyday tasks, you just look so fuckable — something vulnerable for him to have his way with. it definitely doesn’t help his case when your cute ears and tail trigger his fox instincts like nothing else.

as head forest ranger, it’s his job to form the patrol schedules (including patrol pairings). fortunately for tighnari, the only partner you’ve ever been paired with is him. he prefers for the both of you to take the night shift and deceives the other rangers into believing he’s doing it so that they can get some sleep — the caring smile he’s giving them masking his true intentions.

patrolling the forest at night gives him the perfect opportunity to really act on his dark, perverted fantasies in a way that is virtually impossible in the light of day. with the luminescence of the moon being your only lighting, your mind races with fear as you sprint through the avidya forest as fast as you can. the only word of warning that tighnari gives you is “run” before he’s retreating into the darker part of the forest. although you can’t see him, you know that he’s watching you — much closer than he leads you to believe.

it isn’t long before the thrill of the chase wears off and he wants his prey right there in that moment. when your front hits the bottom of the forest floor, he has his teeth on your neck and his hard cock rutting into your ass. there’s no point in reasoning with him at this point — he’s a feral animal.

“sit fucking still. you’re not leaving until you’ve taken my knot.”

ᨳ DOTTORE

you are by far dottore’s favorite “patient”, always so eager to please and willing to do whatever tests he comes up with for the day. each morning when he comes to collect you, you always greet him with a chirpy “good morning, doctor!” that makes him blush harder than he would like to admit. his other test subjects don’t even dare to look at him without permission. but you? you’ll be bouncing up from your plush bed to cling to him like a lost puppy. his subordinates never dare to question why your room is more lavish than the other subjects, because who are they to question the harbinger?

dottore’s obsession with your ears and tail comes second to none. even he finds it a little grimy how his cock instantly hardens at the thought of stroking your cute, cotton puff. while he takes your temperature or inspects your mouth, he always finds himself absentmindedly caressing your soft ears — a habit he should’ve broken so he didn’t get attached to you, but it’s too late now. his favorite, though, is tugging on your fluffy tail while his face his buried in your pussy. while he’s busy eating you out like a man starved, his diligent fingers are massaging and pulling on the soft appendage just to make your moans even whinier.

the only thing that intrigues dottore more than your cute hybrid appearance is your heat cycles. oh, gods, does he love them so fucking much. usually you’re too shy to ask him to fuck you because it’s “too embarrassing” or whatever. but when your mind is hazy and your pussy’s aching? you’re begging for cock every time he turns around. when you’re in this state, you’ll let him do virtually anything he wants.

if he’s feeling cruel, he’ll make you ride a glass dildo that’s just small enough to where you’re not satisfied. if you’re good like you usually are, he’ll lay you back on your velvety bed and fill you with his cum for hours on end. once his balls are drained and you’re still clinging to him for more, he’ll have one of his clones take his place — swapping them out until his bunny is properly bred.

“you’ll get your fill. now stop squirming and be patient, darling.”

ᨳ PIERRO

pierro likes for you to be docile — an obedient doll that acts proper and ladylike to please her lover. on any ordinary day, he quite enjoys taking you with him for a simple stroll or to sit quietly in his office as he works. but the ordinary days never last forever, especially when your heat comes in full force to disrupt the peace. you, previously so shy around him, are now a feral creature with only filthy urges plaguing your mind. it’s a complete one-eighty compared to your normal self — it sort of scares him.

sex is no stranger to pierro. though he prefers more romantic acts of love, he can never find it in him to refuse himself once he sees you dressed so prettily in your layered dresses. in fact, he would say that he quite enjoys seeing you in such a debauched state. but every day? almost every two hours? he’s a busy man, constantly tired due to his work, and his body can’t keep up.

if pierro is too consumed with his work to visit your chambers, you gladly take the opportunity to sit on his lap to get yourself off against his bulge. god help him when he actually comes to your bedroom — your heightened libido has him knocked out before the night is over. he can usually take up to two rounds but never seven. it hurts for you, he knows this, which is why he gave you permission to keep going even if he’s out cold. he can’t have his pretty bunny suffering on her own.

“d-do what you need to do, angel. i’m right here for you.”

ᨳ SCARAMOUCHE

a filthy animal with disgusting urges — that’s how scaramouche regards you. if anyone dares to ask him about you, he spits out that you are a thorn in his side and he only keeps you around out of pity. the balladeer makes it a point to openly disregard your very existence in the public eye to remind you of your place beneath him. but no matter how much it breaks your little heart, you know better than to voice your grievances.

once the moon rises and his estate is a little quieter, he becomes much softer than his daytime persona would lead anyone to believe. almost every night he has one of his underlings fetch you from your chambers, his voice making them think you may be in some sort of trouble. the agent gives you a pitiful look as they send you into your assumed demise — you’re perfectly fine. scaramouche would rather throw himself off of the top of tenshukaku than let anyone know what he does with you in his office.

the moment that the door to his workspace is closed, he’s on you. practically tearing your clothes off of your body, he refuses to wait any longer to feel you underneath him. not even seconds later and your hips are pulled towards him with your face pressed against the floor. as he fumbles with his clothing, he’s spitting hot venom into your ear — you ignore the slight moan etched into the cruel words he’s throwing at you. “look at you. you’re a dirty animal in heat just waiting to get her pussy stuffed,” he chokes out as he pumps his cock. ironic he says that when he’s the one that’s so eager to be balls deep inside of you.

he always fucks you like it’s his last night on the earth — marks litter your body and your legs never seem to work afterward. all of his previous orgasms drip down your legs and onto the tatami mat flooring (which he’ll force you to clean up once he regains his senses). the next day, he acts like nothing happened — resuming his daily routine of squashing your existence under his shoe. it’s a little funny, though, how he acts like he’s in control when really you’re the one that owns him.

“don’t you dare start dripping onto the floors, you filthy wench. you’re not worth the cleanup.”
